Nigerians need to learn fast before we kill our family system like black Americans.

Baby mama is a serious cancer to the society. It destroys family values. It creates more poor and uncultured populace with drive towards crime.

Look at people or group with wealth today. You will see active family values and family wealth distribution. This wealth is not built on children that has no father or mother. It is built on ages of family progress.

Additionally, children from single mothers and single fathers have more tendency to commit crime. There's evidence to this in the United States where most black kids have no complete parents.

Let's stop baby mama/bane papa pandemic before it destroys our society!

Empty drums make the loudest noise. Those empty drums that return from USA carry with them all the despicable things about American culture into Nigeria and "loud am". Your average Nigerian from the South has innate desire to be an American in mannerism. From homosexuality, partners' swinging, tattoos, BBL, braiding, sagging and to babymama syndrome; the future is bleak. Worse still, guns have gradually entered the street. What's the solution? Nothing! Nigerian South will self-implode like the black American communities.

Don't ever blame Gen-Z. Their mothers were the materialistic, covetous and promiscuous Blackberry babes. An antelope must birth an antelope.

She nor gree boss. As we dey talk now, she don go buy iPhone 13 promax, 600k. I nor get strength.

She bought the iphone to continue her business.
Don't pretend like you don't know what she did in Dubai.

Any lady that returns from Malaysia, India, Turkey, Dubai/UAE should come with warning labels.

The majority are not interested in developing Nigeria. Rather they will be bragging about developing areas where they are not wanted. The hard truth is that "Nigerianness" will follow Nigerians wherever they go. Even foreigners keep wondering why Nigerians in large number always run to soft targets instead of staying back and ensure that their country is fixed.

It’s a general mentality of the Black man across the world.

Give a black man a million dollars, and his first priorities will be, building a solid mansion, buying 3 luxurious cars, and changing his wardrobes with luxurious fashion wears and jewelry’s.

They try to tell you how industrious they are when they are still poor, give them that money and you will be amazed how fast they can squander.

/

You made a valid point.

Peter Rufai has MBA degree.

No matter the income, if expenses are higher, it will end in premium tears. Many American basketball players or football players who earned millions of dollars ended up broke within five years after retirement. Most of them treated their incomes like winning the lottery.

Your typical Nigerian wants money for only two reasons: To oppress or to impress.

Ebuka78:
Remember that millions of jobs would also be lost.

Make sure you are creating jobs before banning that, else, crime rate would increase.

If bet was banned in Nigeria tomorrow, expect loss of jobs, crime rate would increase, cultism, kidnapping, obtainers and fraudsters.

The same people saying it should bet banned would also cry when the negative effects happen.

/

You already sound like someone who thinks that fighting kidnapping will create high unemployment.

Innocent or not, it is extremely difficult to defend Nigerian pastors in sex-related cases. It seems that sexual deviance is a prerequisite to pastorpreneurship.

Who insurance epp if not their friends in the financial sectors. Your payment wont prevent eventualities, it will only trap your money in the hands of crooks in suits who will doubt the circumstances of the eventualities when they begin to arrive.

Jesus is the highest insurer of the building of God almighty and not one gang of crooks in suits.

Stop making mockery of Jesus!

SmartPolician:
How does Forbes determine these things? I am 100% certain that these people didn't disclose their earnings to anyone because rich people, probably because of safety concerns, don't like discussing their wealth.

Given what the media has made us believe, there are people who are by far richer than these folks who made the list but they are silent kingmakers who don't want the world to know them. We have been told they are the biggest problems in our world

Reasons for Exclusion from Forbes' List
---------------------------------------------------------------
Difficulty in Verifying Wealth:
Some individuals have their wealth held in ways that make it difficult for Forbes to estimate or verify, such as private companies, complex trust structures, or undisclosed assets.
Criminal or Unethical Activity:
Criminals, drug dealers, and arms dealers are excluded because their wealth is derived from illicit activities.
Control of State Resources:
Dictators, monarchs, and some royal family members are often excluded because their wealth is tied to their political or state position, making it difficult to separate personal wealth from the wealth of the state or government.
Temporary Political Instability:
Forbes may temporarily remove billionaires from a country if there is widespread political instability or uncertainty that hinders the assessment of their wealth, as seen with Saudi billionaires in 2018 due to a government crackdown on prominent businessmen.
Failure to Meet Net Worth Requirements:
Many individuals are excluded each year because their net worth falls below the minimum threshold required for the list, due to market fluctuations, business downturns, or other factors that reduce their fortunes.
Privacy and Family Protection:
Some individuals choose to remain off the list to protect their families from potential dangers or scrutiny.

The only difference between her and Kora Obidih is that Kora had camera and ring light to showcase the world how terrible a wife she is. If not, Kora will be singing the same victim songs. Believe all women.

That's Nigeria for you. Worse, that's FCT real estate deal.
A new FCT Minister will do his/her own revocation, allocation and reallocation. Afterall, the allocations revoked by Wike were done by his predecessors. The cycle continues. The once almighty PDP still couldn't believe what hit them.

God bless you my brother. Some people want us to believe that Nigeria is héll fire not realizing lots of things are affordable. I pay for one month what I would pay for a one year duplex in Nigeria

With the exchange rate, a pauper in USA will be a baller in Nigeria. But if you truly call yourself a man and believe that Nigerians have it easy, stay in Nigeria for 6 months straight. It will wipe the arrogance out of your soul.

Those going into Nigeria save up for months/years just to stay for about two weeks. There is no way in hell they'll fully experience the hellish aspect of Nigeria.

Procashtips:
Almost 42 years
A freelance/independent consultant
With 2 children (Almost 6 and Almost 4)
Wife working.

Lost it all in bad collaboration, fraudulent investments, bad/wrong investments and also theft.

Got an asset that can give him ₦20m after debts are paid.
How does he bounce back with the above?

Rent is 2m annually
School fees is 300-350k termly.
Feeding ₦150k+ monthly
Others: ₦100k monthly


If you are in his shoes, what are you going to do?

He plans to be responsible for running the house this time around without relying on assistance from the wife to restore sanity/orderliness.

Advice him from the point of financial and career stability,

/
N20m? You are in a better position than most Nigerians.

You need steady cash flow.

1. Use about N5m and buy Toyota Corolla. Register with Bolt and/or airport taxi.
2. Figure out what petty business to start with another N5m as backup plan.

3. Keep the remaining N10m like your life depends on it.

In his defense, those who had A in all the courses are some of his employees.

Nigeria claim to have the most educated people in Africa, but look at the country.

Has Soludo (Ph.D) done anything in Anambra or Okezie Ikpeazu (Ph.D) in Abia that differentiate
them from other regular politicians? It is not by paper certificates otherwise the Bill Gates and Zuckerberg
of this world won’t exist.

At old age, you can only count on your daughter(s) for care.

Mirasteel:
People that are not wise. 😂😂😂😂

The people that are quick to remind us that all of us are created in the image of God believe that there are people that are special people of God. The level of bullshit people believe is astonishing. And our body is supposed to be the temple of God? I guess the bodies of Israelis (note that they are no longer referred to as Israelites) are the altar of God then.

I believe that everyone in Nigeria deserves what they get paid directly or indirectly.

The new generation members of RCCG, Chosen, Zion Ministry, etc and the unforgettable "What God Cannot Do Does Not Exist" do not know that higher madness had always existed in Nigeria before their own. Whatever madness they currently exhibit is a tip of the iceberg compared to the days of Fr. Edeh, Eddy Nawgu, Reverend King, Pastor Sign Fireman just to mention a few. As long as pervasive poverty exists in Nigeria, paid "miracle" workers will continue to thrive. Don't blame the followers because it seems like it is a carryover curse from their grandparents in the late 80s till 90s.

Nothing has changed!

There are millions of Nigerians still worshipping their so-called Daddy GOs. They are ready to take up arms against dissenters.

It is just history repeating itself.

/

/
The people living through the trauma are protesting while some people in their little village in Nigeria are shouting "Up Israel!"
because some book convinced them that Israelis are special people of God while the rest of the people in the world belong to Satan.

Jesus is not pampering anyone.

The pastors are the ones pampering themselves and their immediate families with all the funds they extract from their gullible followers.
/

/
The only thing you must respect about Nigerian pastors is that their followers are happy to give them even their last dimes without any cogent reasons. They managed to make "giving" an addiction worse than alcohol or cigarettes

That's why one shouldn't take any intellectual news from Nigeria seriously. I believe that those with an iota of intelligence have "japa". How do one get to an accident scene, see a Landrover product and report it as a Lexus? What other facts did the reporter get wrong? This is the level of misinformation one would expect from Linda Ikeji blog.

Arrested...to be rehabilitated...and released back into the battlefield as repented terrorists.

I am surprised that people still go out to vote.

Why waste your time and effort to vote for Mr. X in party Z when he can easily decamp to party B without any repercussions?

Parties are non-existent.

Oyibo people sef!

White British colonized the Indians, claimed the territory and renamed it USA.
White British colonized Palestine, claimed the territory and baptized it as Israel in 1948.
White British colonized part of West Africa, claimed the territory, amalgamated some regions in 1914 and called it Nigeria. Don't forget that the conqueror wrote history which is why a highly "educated" Nigerian will regurgitate that Mungo Park discovered River Niger even in this 21st century.

What's going on in the Middle East between Israel and Palestine is akin to what's going on in Nigeria between Fulani and the rest. The world know who is arming Israel, do we know who is arming the Fulani? Israel claims they own the land as much as Fulani claim they own Nigeria. I guess it is only unfair when people are the direct victims. It is gross hypocrisy to support Israel and not support Fulani herdsmen.

My Man Tattooed His Mum's Name and Mine (Augustina and Abigail) – Has Anyone Ever Tattooed Your Name on Their Bodies?

A lady said, I can never tattoo any man's name on my body.
Man wey never marry me! 😄

I replied, my Husband tattooed my name on his leg on the 29/11/2022 before our Traditional Marriage and Wedding that was scheduled on 9/10 of December, 2022.
Next day he felt pain on the spot, I asked why was he feeling pain. He answered, haven't you watched how someone is being tattooed, I said no. He said, blood will gush out, so it must hurt. I felt the chill, Jeez!


He said it's his pre-wedding gift to me.
He went an extra mile to proof his undying love for me.
No man has ever loved me the way he did.

He said he'll tattoo our daughter's name soon.

I smiled, one significant thing is that we got our baby on same 29/11, just on a different year (2024)

Low budget husband. What is he? An ex-con?

Dude looks like he has never touched even a dumbbell in his life. The evidence is in the muscles.
