9jaHustler: Hey guys, it's our first time ever outta Naija. Currently at Heathrow Airport waiting for connecting flight to Manchester which is our final destination.
Update: It was almost 9:30pm when we left Manchester Airport but it was like 5pm in Nigeria. Everywhere was still day. I though my wrist watch was incorrect until I check the dash board clock of the taxi

This is a life lesson to all the miscreants shouting "Tinubu!" or "APC!' That person you dey follow shout may already have plan B like McOluomo.
Before the ship sinks, he go japa with his family. Who go suffer am? The same you.
TheGiftedOne: Good evening Nairalanders, I bought these 5 mangoes at the cost of #500 today at New Benin market, Benin City. I am greatly perturbed by the soaring prices of food items in the market these days. This country don your me.
For how much would you get this in your locality?

This is good news!
Everyone want run go city dey form posh. Even the ones wey dey village are too lazy to farm. Na God don butter the bread of farmers.
hopman98: Hammerhead, how will ur own life too change if ur tribal man wins? na pesin wey go make naija beta we dey hope for, whether hausa, igbo or yoruba
/ My well-being is not in any way tied to Nigeria. Whoever you people choose, life goes on.
hopman98: Mad o. On how Jonathan enter, win, finish 2027, power go just go back to North. The Northerners are the best in this game. Igbos no go smell that ASO ROCK seat for the next God knows when years. PS: na the northerners go dey control GEJ cabal sha
/ 1970-2022 Igbo people have never held the Presidency. Look around you. They are not starving. Heck! They are doing a lot better on average than most tribes in Nigeria. Even with Buhari in Aso Rock, Katsina people seem to be worse off than before. Go figure! Whoever enters Aso Rock is there for his families and cronies only. Na for inside the same market the masses will shop including you
How will your personal life change if your tribal man wins the Presidency? You will still be broke.
They are not selling their conscience. They are selling the trust bestowed on them by the masses. They gain financially at the expense of the masses. Terrible! Bribery is a crime.
Earlier today, it was reported widely how EFCC Official stormed the residence of the Former Governor of Imo State and one of APC Presidential Aspirants, over a certain sum of money traced to him. It was also reported that the governor claimed the anti graft didn't come with search or arrest warrant so he refused to open his door.
Video 1 (Okorocha calling on God)
In a related development, a live recorded video of the mood of the former governor while the officials of the EFCC stormed his home has surfaced online.
The video which seem to be a live Instagram video from by one of his daughters shows how Chief Rochas Okorocha was lying on the floor of the house, praying to God for help, saying "Come to my rescue my lord and my God" while the rest of the family were asking if they can open.
Built2last: How in heaven's name can you have MPR of double digit and expect the economy to grow.
How can small businesses borrow and pay back with such ridiculous base rate.
We have a dumb Bleep running our monetary policy in CBN.
A clueless nincompoop running our fiscal policy in Ministry of finance
A commander in chief with no clue of what should be done.
No wonder we have been on downward spiral.
TUEH
/ When I tell you that education in Nigeria is useless, some doubt. Emefiele is using Western style economic principles to run Nigeria. Raising interest rate can curb inflation in a stable economy but Nigeria is run on voodoo economics. If only we can learn to tailor our education to local contents, Nigeria would be better.
Why not honour the invitation of EFCC? Everyone knows that EFCC is a toothless bulldog when it comes to looters anyway. Patapata he stays 2 days at their office, go home and have his lawyers drag the case till eternity. He has the resources.
I need una inputs, I tried scanning through nairaland threads and I am getting more of technicalities and rules lol. I need real experiences.

/ I guess you whipped out your calculator when they told you N2million per month
At N2 million equivalent per month in UK, he is living worse than you do with N600k/month in Nigeria.
/ The next President of Nigeria will be in a very big trouble. With inflationary pressure high all over the world, I expect some economies to start crashing before the end of this year. US being the global leader is already feeling the pinch. The Fed stepped in and has plans to continue increasing interest rate. Equities are bleeding. Cryptocurrencies especially alt coins are bankrupting believers.
I really can’t wait to see how the whole thing plays out. Debt will definitely choke some nations. I think the winner will be China—they will end up seizing assets of defaulting nations. /
Alaigbopress: Some days ago, I posted here about how my girl friend posted her ex pictures twice and I got a handful of advice, insults and very derogatory statements. Also at the same time I also got very few matured and helpful comment. I wanted to apply the advice I was given here because I was furious and that could have been disastrous.
The next day after posting here, I confronted my girl, I told her it is over between us(all was a ploy to know how much she loves me). Since that day, my Girl's mood changed, she doesn't talk to people, she doesn't laugh and even started skipping her meal. She came to my house and was crying heavily that she was sorry. That has it been she know that it will provoke me that she wouldn't have done it.
I still pretended that I will never forgive her. Just yesterday she called my female bestie and narrated to her what happened and she called me yesterday evening and pleaded with me to forgive her. Which I did and You need to see how happy this girl has been. I will send screen shot of her recent Whatsapp status.
My Advice to anyone seeking for a relationship advice is not to follow the popular comment here.
/ You will be back in a few months for more advice.
/ If Buhari could be elected in Nigeria, anyone could be President in Nigeria. The same vultures that gathered and convinced Nigerians that Buhari is the Messiah are gathering to foist another deadwood on Nigerians. It is nothing new. Nigerians will be nonchalant about it but will turn to chronic wailers after the harm is done.
Supreme145: It's not in my nature to bother about people's relationships but this is happening to someone that's like a brother to me. He has been dating a girl for a year now and it's obvious this girl doesn't love him but he won't just give up. He keeps throwing money at her in a bid to win her love.
Things got messier when this girl met a particular guy some months back... This guy happens to live in the compound of my club mate so I know him well. The girl has begged my guy to free her that she's in love with someone else but this guy no gree instead he's planning to attack the innocent guy.
He confided in me that the girl has not let him touch her since she met this other guy, that's over five months now. I once overhead the guy boasting to his friends that he's a redpiller because someone else is taking care of his girlfriend while he does the knacking free of charge. He's even flexing everything that my guy buys for the girl. All pleas to my guy to free this girl has fallen on deaf ears.
My club mate told me that the girl has been with the guy for over one month now, my guy comes to town once a week to see the girl, gets her stuffs and this girl will just go back to the other boy that is even jobless.
My guy is finer and far richer than this new guy, he's planning to start a business for this girl and I've been trying to change his mind to no avail. It's no longer normal, I would've said he's charmed but the girl has begged him to free her but he refused. The guy is even the one flexing the sample of the products he sent her. Everything she has done to drive him has failed so she just relaxed and enjoying the money.
This simping is on another level, it hurts me to see my guy in this kinda situation. I've gotten him picture proofs that the girl is cheating but he won't change his mind. The girl even admitted that she's been having sex with the guy buy he's claiming its a lie and the girl is trying to drive away.
Is there anything I can do to help him abeg.

So you are not happy that God has buttered the bread of your clubmate? Someone has to gain. If not your clubmate, it will be another guy.
The only way to save your friend is to pray that he loses his job. Poverty will reformat his brain.
chrisxxx: I think the body language of Yaradua's mother when four different presidential candidates of different parties visited her tells where her heart lies.
/ It is their fault for visiting her in the first place.
Agabaidu1234: My Experience With my boss at the office today.
Am a serving corps member with one company serving.
At first, I usually carry my boss bag from the office to his car whenever we close (in the evening) but in a recent time he promoted my kind gesture to always call me from the office to pick his bag in the morning not minding whether am busy or not which has being getting me infuriated before now, but I keeps being calm.
The last stroke that broke the camel's back happened today. He called me outside as usual, I picked up the bag from him and he equally went further to tell his friend to equally handed over his own to me, to bring them all to the office although the friend told me not to bother myself, which really got me really mad boldly written in my countenance � and he noticed it which he asked me at the office and I express my displeasure to him in that regard of carrying his friend bag together with his own and he attempted to defend himself by bringing in irrelevant ideas and admonishment, of which I took flimsy excuse that I was not feeling fine and left, but trust me it was still as a result of the anger.
Now, my concerns is that, am I being foolish trying to be nice and at the same time being humble to always doing that for him willingly because I started it which he took it to be daily routine,? And again I want to stop doing that to him from today's on even when am called upon, if he thinks I do them all for him as a result of ignorance or that am being naive( what do you think � that my plan may result to) . Am talking about a guy who should be in his early thirties( 30) here.
Please �, what's actually your advise to me in this circumstance.
/ Your boss is my hero. You were hired for specific job requirements but you added extra to kiss your boss ass. Why complain? /
Zonefree: Tomorrow may be your turn and we'll be saying same thing you just said now. Be careful how you spew your bile
/ Haven't you seen the trend? Everyone who supported evil in Nigeria ended up being a victim of such evil. It is a matter of time and you will see him come back here to lament.
