Oyibo people are centuries away from Africans.

From slavery to infiltrating the mafia, they know that the best way to destroy a group is to use their own kind against them.

Most importantly, the informant/destroyer is rewarded handsomely for a job well done.

Now can someone tell me again why the appointments/reward of these folks for a yeoman job is being celebrated. The bigger question is: Why do Africans fall over heals for stamp of approval from oyibo? Sometimes I can't help but wonder if all our brains are the same. Oyibo will dine with anyone that protects their "interests". The word interests is alien to Nigeria as long as physical cash is not involved. Heck. Bin Laden and Gaddaffi used to be friends of the West.

Shut up, you sycophant.
You live in the US but behave like a cave dweller.
Buhari definitely gets feelings from the social media one way or the other.
Atleast he knows that we all call him baba go slow.

I am glad that you take solace in knowing that. Hey! Whatever rocks your boat. Perhaps, this is the only avenue for you to
have a feeling that your opinion matters. Well, knock yourself out.

CSTR2:
Of course, let us just sing kumbaya and worship buhari all the way to 2019.

Yeah. Because Buhari wakes up every morning, reads the comments on NL before going on his daily activities.

My point is that you people are just making noise.

They claim to be Christians.

And they pray to God..."give us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change".

Yet they are wailing about the things they cannot change.

The hypocrisy of men!

Buhari has 3+ years to stay in Aso Rock. Cry! Wail! Hit your head from now till then, you are only pouring water on a stone. Ever heard of crying over spilled milk? Your hues and cries are inconsequential. So why even bother?

Their impression about you is not helped by videos of Africans washing up offshore in Europe. Arabs are not any better than Africans in terms of terror but are treated better. That is the price we all pay for self-hatred and self-denigration. We are busy tearing one another down along ethnic lines while in the global arena, Oyibo doesn't know the difference and couldn't care less. For all they care, we are all blacks and scum of the earth. Some of them might have been to Nigeria and saw how you are treated less than dogs in your country. And you expect respect? How?

You better get used to it as you venture outside Nigeria. Your description may end up being "that African".

I can bet it with my last kibosh that nothing will eventually happen to Bukola Saraki at the end of the day, he will still continue to be the Senate president and Tinubu, Akande , lai Muhammed et al will still continue to find ways to tame him... Till 2019

What people don't really know about Bukola Saraki Include

1.He is the first child of the former Senate majority leader Dr Olusola Saraki. He has gone through his father's political tutelage and he understand the intricacies of Nigeria politics


2.He was the last 'successful' chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum he knows how to playp Nigeria politics well! Well!! base on his experience


3.Though a medical doctor by training, he comes from a state where virtually every elite in that state is a lawyer... Kwara state has the highest concentration of legal practitioners in Nigeria (Wikipedia is your friend) So they know how to rap with the laws. That is why CCB will just shout and shout the man will still continue to be the Senate president. .. Even the emir of the state is a former justice of Nigeria


4.There are thousands upon thousands of Alfas in Kwara state.. So forget any issue of spirituality that might go against Bukola Saraki majority of the Alfas in that state are in his support.


5. Bukola Saraki has so much court connection within and outside Nigeria. Every captain of industries in Nigeria are his loyal friends, most of the emirs, Obis, Kings and Obas in the country are his friend.


This man remain unshakable except God himself wants to remove him...

I disagree with you. Buying a new car will be better. Think of the cost of repairing the car over time, specially with how Nigerian auto engineers treat the cars. When you calculate how much you gotta drop every time you visit the autoshop, you might as well as just buy a new car. Common sense will tell you never to use the car on bad roads. You may entertain the use of public transportation when the need be. You don't have to be on the road with your car every time.

/
So what's the point in buying a car and let it sit in your garage while you use public transportation? It defeats the whole purpose of buying a car. New cars spoil too from a mixture of things like driving through all the flooding in Lekki, adulterated fuel, just to mention a few.
Certified used cars will serve as if not better than a new car. And you are getting it cheaper too. Why do you think that the price of a car becomes highly discounted as soon as you register it? Because potential buyers and other Nigerians know what a typical car goes through in Nigeria. It is the reality.

Worst part of it all is that quiet a good number of car owners in Nigeria do not jack about cars. They buy because a particular brand is en vogue and affordable. Regular check up? Yeah right. You expect the folks that don't do medical check ups to take a car for routine maintenance.
/

/
Unless you live in Abuja and few other metropolis, it makes no sense to buy a new car in Nigeria. Expensive parts, bad roads, inexperienced mechanics (car may be under warranty but if you venture out of your state), the environment (washing off mud scratches the paint and dulls the color) and danfo drivers/okada who cannot wait to dent the car.

A newer car usually looks different in Nigeria because of the numerous abuses it goes through on a daily basis.

So why not buy a certified used car that has gone through several points inspection. It makes more sense.

Things You Must Consider Before You Buy That Car:


You must have seen cases of some expensive cars parked and you'd wonder why the owner abandon his/her car on a strange spot.
Unavailable or expensive parts could be the cause. Most times, it's the cause.

That Mechanic around your area can testify to the above.

This is very common. Mechanic workshops have turned to parking lots. A lot of fancy cars rotting away, not necessarily because of unavailability of spare parts. When available, such parts are very expensive. Yeah. Try replacing the air-ride system in one tire of a Mercedes S class for about N350k with no guarantee because of Nigeria roads. If you have to replace two sides, Oh well. Tell the mechanic that you will be right back and never show up for 2 years. Sometimes, they think the owners of the cars are dead. LOL

Cars are pain in the a#ss.

With owning private jets being the new trend for Nigerian pastors at the moment, I keep wondering whether Jesus would agree to have one if He were in the shoes of these same pastors today. Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, Bishop David Oyedepo, Enoch Adeboye and Pastor T.B. Joshua are Nigerian pastors reported to have private jets.

As a christian who believes a lot in humility, I disagree with the ownership of such luxurious vessels in the name of evangelism. Here are the reasons why I feel that private jets are not necessary for christian leaders;


1) Diplomats and International business executives manage travelling a lot without it; there are many jobs that require a lot of travel such as being a diplomat or an international aid worker or a top level executive of an international firm. A lot of people travel frequently and globally as part of their job without the aid of a private jet and so, why can’t pastors do the same? Some of the rich business executives probably travel more than these pastors. Even the pope doesn’t own a private jet, and he is responsible for all catholic churches across the world! Honestly, it is hard to muster up an excuse for a pastor’s private jet when even the pope doesn’t own one.


2) Private jets actually hamper evangelism by consuming more time, effort and money than a commercial flight; The time and effort needed to maintain a private jet and keep it running is ridiculous when one considers the fact that a commercial flight is a far cheaper and less tedious service to use for global evangelism. As a private jet owner, you will have to think about numerous issues such as the pilot’s fees and demands, the scheduling of the maintenance or repairs of the plane, and also the international restrictions/laws regarding the flight of the private jet. This means that a private jet owner will have less time to think about preaching the word of God because of all the time and effort spent on the private jet’s issues. A first class commercial flight will only involve buying your ticket online, checking in and then going early for your flight- isn’t that just easier?


3) Jesus rode on donkeys and not on chariots; horses and chariots were the highest level of transport in biblical times but Jesus chose to humbly enter the city of Jerusalem with a donkey in what we know as the triumphal entry in the New Testament. Conversely, we have pastors riding on the highest levels of transports in the form of private jets that reeks of the very materialism that Jesus speaks against in Matthew 6;24.


4) Private jets are bad for the Nigerian economy; private jets and planes in general are not manufactured in Nigeria and so, a lot of the repairs and maintenance will require importation of labour and spare parts from countries like the USA or Canada. This also means that lot of transactions will be done in thousands of Dollars, rather than our local Naira. One can imagine the exorbitant cost to the Nigerian private jet owner if he or she has to pay the pilots, technicians and mechanics in Dollars given that the exchange rate doesn’t favour the Naira. Should a church really contribute to this leakage to our economy?


5) Private jets do not help the image of Nigerian leaders; one has to consider the bad image our Nigerian leaders have in the eyes of the foreign press- flamboyant and corrupt people who care little for the suffering of their impoverished masses. A pastor owning a private jet worth millions of dollars while many of his church members struggle to survive everyday is not going to help such an image. Whatever happened to the John the Baptist type of preachers who lived a chaste life not corrupted by the illusions of vanity? I think some of our religious leaders should learn from Jose Mujica, a man who chose a simple life despite wielding so much power and influence as the president of Uruguay.

Where do you guys get this misconception that the pastors are trying to save lives for God?

Just as Samsung sells electronics, churches sell fear and hope.

They are all corporate entities.

Do you want to go to heaven? Seek God yourself.

\

OP. I don't know why you are complaining.

You mentioned that you married him because of his looks only. And you got Mr. Handsome (your only interest).

Why are you complaining about qualities that were not in your criteria when you were looking for a partner?

Someone who wants a sports car, buys one and then complains that it cannot fly. Keep managing your life. We all have to live with our mistakes.

Demmocrats:
God really blessed your hustle my sister


Enjoy your life.




For the haters calling her names that she doesn't want to marry, should try 3rd mainland bridge. Its those people with African mentality thinking that if you are not married that means you are not complete.

Marriage is African mentality?

Look at the men-of-God and see if they have any faith in what they are preaching. They got it figured out a long time ago. So the people giving money to pastors to book reservations for them in heaven deserves what they get. Pastors know that flying G Gulfstream beats any imaginary paradise after all a bird at hand is worth more than ten in the bush.

Hello House,

I'm in a dilemma concerning my househelp and Nanny.

I've noticed she has developed a relationship with the neighbours which I'm not comfortable about.

She isn't a live in hand but has been with us for 2 years now.
She is a woman in her early 40s, a Yoruba Christian who stays not too far from my place.

She helps with housechores when we are away at work.
Her job role is to:-

(1) prepare the kids and take them to school every morning.

(2) Return to the house and do housekeep.

(3)Take the kids home after school hours.

(4)Prepare lunch for them and help them with their home work.

Her hours of work is between 7am and 7pm when she resigns to go to her house.

My daughter has told me how they've gone twice to watch TV next door in the home of both neighbours. (Nanny took them there).

Should I be worried about this development or is it part of the growing up phase for the kids?

Seems she isn't challenged enough with the workload and what does she do when she's at the neighbours.

/
YOU ARE NOT A PARENT!!!

PLEASE DON'T HAVE ANYMORE KIDS.

The nanny is your children's mother. Re-read your post and you will know why.

What did you mean ibo drinking panadol? Ibo & N/Delta are the same or have you heard them complain. wake-up from this your myopic idea.

You are the one with myopic idea.
ND identifies with Igbo people for.political interests only.
Next time you come across a NDeltan, tell him/ her that he/she is an Igbo.
What happened to the abandoned property saga? And you believe yourself. Wake up. Igbo people are becoming condoms in.Nigeria...use and dump. And they cannot even smell.across their noses which was why GEJ didn't campaign vigorously in the SE in the run up to.the election because Igbo people sold themselves out cheaply without anything negotiable on the table. SMH.

It is idiotic to identify with a group who does not want to identify with Igbo people. ND fought against Igbo people during the Biafra war and they will not hesitate to do it again. But gullible ones like you will like to believe otherwise.

CBN Releases Names Of 19 States Given Bailout





http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/190299-nigeria-cbn-releases-names-of-19-states-given-bailout.html

Imagine a little state like Bayelsa with one of the highest allocations from the national cake still getting bail out fund.

Bayelsa (population = 1.7m) gets about N164b annually
Anambra (population: 4.2m) gets about N57b, and Oyo (population: 5.6m) gets N61b.

Anambra, Imo and Enugu states got a total of about N166b in a year (2014) while Bayelsa alone got N164b the same year. This is excluding capital projects embarked on by the Ministry of Niger Delta.

So...what went wrong in Bayelsa that they had to be bailed out with additional N12b?
/

Ok. Igbo people...come and defend GEJ while Niger Deltans pretend they didn't read this article.
