This is funny in a way.

Fashola mobilized okada riders for his campaign. After he won, he banned okada in major areas and thousands of bikes were seized and destroyed.

Sanwo-Olu cranked up ethnicism during his campaign. After he won, he rounded up all the Iragbiji destitute (who thought Lagos belong to them) and shipped them off to Osun You do realize that those that dutifully inform others that Lagos is a Yoruba state do not have even 1/4 plot of land to their names It is always the urchins.

DoWhatThouWilt:
Do they?

I love and enjoy my current state of bachelorhood and honestly I do not have the desire to get married now or in future because personally I have come to the realisation that men are living in a world today where there are too many impossible expectations to meet.

Recently, I have been noticing subtle hints of envy from my colleagues at work who are married just from the statements they make.

For example, they usually try to belittle me with statements like You're still a small boy, you don put woman for house? whenever we are having non heated argument over a topic that doesn't even concern marriage in anyway.

When it is their turn to work for some few hours on weekends they make statements like Men like us no suppose they do duty, na una (single men) suppose do am as if I don't have other affairs to attend to during the weekend.

So married men in the House, Do you people envy single men?

In this day and age, the only difference between unmarried couple and married couple is that the latter has a document of enslavement signed and backed by law. The overall benefits remain same. A live-in girlfriend may be better than most wives because of limited sense of entitlement--separation is usually less painful financially and otherwise for a man.

Every human being is a walking corpse irrespective of whether in Nigeria, Jerusalem or Medina.

Why the emphasis on Nigeria?

/
The emphasis on Nigeria is because it is guaranteed with a devil's certificate of death in tandem as long as you wake up in Nigeria. Coming back home alive everyday is a miracle.

These are the roads that deserve highest priority before Umahi embark on Lagos-Calabar highway to patronize Chagoury brothers and Tinubu.

CodeTemplar:
A strategic way to chase alcohol avoiding terrorist away I guess. They should consider sprinkling pig meat and blood to ward off extremists. Lol.

/
What we lack in the country is "professionals" with critical-thinking capacities.
Just equip the local militia with bullets laced in pig blood. That will get the terrorists thinking twice about invasion.
Psychological warfare it is. When captured, forcibly feed them pork.

Obligate consumption --bane of Africans. We are talking about kids graduating from Secondary school.

You will be surprised that the country doesn't produce even toothpick but the citizens want to "ball" like citizens of highly industrialized nations.

It reminds one of Congolese sapeurs living in abject poverty, wasting their meagre salaries on high end designer labels to impress God-knows-who.

/

/
Everyone doesn't want the system fixed. They are busy chasing money as the end forgetting that there comes a time money stacked in the Nigerian banks cannot save their lives. What do you call a hospital that refused to attend to a patient because of money? But then you can't really blame them because our people are very dishonest--they may refuse to pay later after treatments.

Didn't Tinubu allegedly lose his son because they couldn't organize a PJ ambulance on time to take him to a UK hospital?

Nbkay23:
It’s no longer news how Dollar is skyrocketing in our Economy Nigeria Today, and the Devaluation of our Naira, well I’ll like to share my own 2percent on the situation.

Considering the fact that Nigeria only spends naira, But the availability of dollars to some, in the economy is Devastating. These are the Big business corps, BDC’s operators and Particularly the Government. The reason for our currency devaluation, here I’ll tell you now..I’m an economist and a part time forex trader, so believe it what I’m telling is true.

The Cbn exchange dollar thru the Bureau d change to the public, the way they do it, is By releasing Dollars to particular registered BDC traders as they claim, Dollars is released to this Individuals to sell to the General public daily, What these people do is, they sell at a particular rate and increase the rate so as to Have some dollars left in stock, By hoarding them, They come back to the bank next day and deposit naira, Saying Demand of Dollars is High, Next day collecting of dollars take place in the Bank again, the bank doesn’t have a choice than to increase the rate cos the rate of return is Low in Value, Definitely business has been done and profit has been made. The issue is Why can’t the CBN put a stop to Street Trading, Aboki’s calling people dollar, dollar on the streets and Devise a Means of Transaction using the Bank for Transparency while Dealing thru the Accounts of the BDC’s, this way you can avoid Laundering of money, illegal transactions and Consumption of Government funds, Most Politicians in Abuja prefer to use the Bureau d change cos it’s a seamless way of Transaction, No one can hold you, No amount is too much, Infact the bigger the amount the Better they friends with you. Street transaction of Dollars is still the same as Spending dollars in the economy. You won’t see other Countries allowing other currencies to be Transferable in the Streets, We have to put a stop to this Menace if we want to save this Country from Collapsing , Using Debts to hold the naira is not the way, Defunding the Banks of Dollar deposits is not the way, Defunding the crypto holders is not even the way, We have to let Transparency and Records take control of the Exchange system, Not in the streets, But banks. Slots can be made Available for Preferable BDC’s Vendors, And Stop Doing Business with the Economy

Below in this picture is a woman walking Pass the exchange Board in Tokyo Japan, You can Visibly see the chart

/
So you really believe that ragtag BDC operators getting rationed daily $10k from CBN are responsible for weakening naira? Are they responsible for weakening Japanese yen and Turkish lira--both at multi-decades all time low too?

Nigerian FG has blamed everyone but themselves. They know the solution and it ain't got nothing to do with Binance, Abokifx or BDC owners.

It starts with Demand and Supply. Why the high demand for foreign currency in Nigeria? This should be the first basic question.

Kelvinofficial:
Nigerians complaining about these IOCs leaving are really myopic. At least now indigenous companies are taking over, which means retained revenue. The most important question we should be asking is if these indigenous companies have the technical expertise and financial chest to take over these oil wells!

/
Some of you are funny!

You really believe that IOCs are selling off assets to indigenous companies. They are restructuring. Hands of Essau, voice of Jacob. The profits flow upstream to the bosses whose names do not appear in any official documents. Your indigenous companies are just faces of the operation. It is a tax haven for the IOCs.

The politician wrote this on his social media page in response to a comment:

I perused to check on Reno Omokiri's father on the list. I guess he admitted that he is a son to a loser too.

Another question should be why someone will pay N1.3million for a drink s/he will pee out in 30 minutes.
Some expenses are really stupid. Because one can afford it doesn't mean one should buy it. A bottle of Alomo bitters will get you up to the same level of highness.

Heck! If you buy Azul N1.3m give me, I no go drink

/

/
If only some of you listened to voice of reasoning instead of being in bed with your emotions.

Look below. It was on March 28th....and a month later you would have been sitting pretty fine.

Nothing special.

After all when Amechi abandoned Nigeria against common sense and embarked on building railway and road projects from the North to Niger Republic, some miscreants cheered him on as a purveyor of wonderful ideas. There exists a group of people whose jobs entail telling politicians that they have the best smelling fart of all.

Surprised? Let's not forget that Daniel Kanu campaigned vigorously for Abacha to convert to a civilian President. When Abacha died, he faded into oblivion.

Be prepared to listen to outrageous arguments by supporters of any government in power. It is not as if Lai Mohammed didn't abuse Nigerians enough with silly lies...

I bet you if Tinubu reduces the minimum wage to N10k/month, these same individuals will tell you that it will help curb inflation, decrease money supply and support the naira. The government view them as useful idiots.
/

/
The statement is very unnecessary.

The society needs those idiots to be distracted by religion to create room for serious people to progress.

Everyone can’t be smart.

Any Nigerian bragging about being proficient in English language is a fool.

Any place can be investors' paradise if enough people show interest.

If Dubai and Qatar could go from deserts to tourists' attractions, I don't understand why people want to gamble their life savings in Lagos
when there are many thriving, traffic-free, conducive cities in Nigeria. If you build, they must come. Nnewi is a case study example.
Some idiots keep buying into the 1970s propaganda and ideology about Lagos. The world is a global village. You can order goods from China and have it delivered at Iragbaji contrary to what was obtainable in the 80s. My uncle has an office at Aba but he is mostly in the village yet things are moving on well. Technology is not just for "bombing" clients.

LocalFARMERS:
I wonder if we have Police or DSS in this Country. Young Fulani Bandits have turned TikTok to their personal site. They openly create accounts and flaunt themselves. Yet, non of them is arrested.


Why do we have Police, DSS, NIA and other intelligent agencies in this Country, when some criminals will freely flaunt themselves on social media without fear.

This is an insult to this Country. I urge our security agents to do something about this.

No be who get NIN and BVN you go track and arrest?

They no send FG directives like their southern coward counterparts who are quick to obey any stupid directives.

Next time, the FG will ask everyone to go and scan their balls, and the southern people will gleefully queue up.

Pure exercise. Pure format to make it look like he goes to the mountain to fast and pray.

But we know the sucker ain't gambling with ulcer.

Fasting and praying is for the gullible Neanderthals.

/

/
So you mean all the prosperity prayers since 1980s in Nigeria is a total waste?

Many are still paying tithes to pastors to be in number 1 position.

If I were a neurosurgeon, I will really like to open the brain of a sample religious zombie in Nigeria to ascertain what's inside.

Heat too much

No light. Una begin use generator, they increased fuel prices.

Una still manage buy, they make it scarce.

Someone is out to frustrate the living hell out of people.

/

/
It is a disservice to term it a misplaced priority.

Actually it is the greatest act of wickedness and height of insensitivity to have Nigerians keep dying in accidents or being kidnapped due to the deplorable state of Federal roads while they embark on constructing new ones with no completion in sight.

But then only an idiot will fight for Nigerians. Indifference is more preferable because somehow Nigeria always has ways of happening to those who turn blind eyes to atrocities therein.

DeepThroater:
How can you value your entire economy and currency on that of another sovereign nation's?


Here lies the problem.

The sooner we ditch the dollar and diversify our FX like how GEJ attempted the better we be.

Also GEJ proposed opening up a trading house in Lagos for our oil to be priced in naira.

When that proposal was floated , a Swiss Govt sponsored report came up with the fabulous lie of missing $50bn oil revenue to which Sanusi (a BlackRock appointee as VP Africa ) quickly vetted the unsubstantiated fake dossier.

The enemies of Nigeria are more from within than outside.

/
You do realize that they must not buy your oil. Sometimes Nigeria finds it difficult to find buyers. Moving away from US dollars as a reserve currency is not what one country can do and that's why some are binding together to form BRICS+.

Too many things are wrong. One is being an import-dependent nation. If you sell oil in naira, they will still need to source for US dollars for importation of goods and products for consumption into Nigeria. The other is the general disdain the people have for things produced in Nigeria. The insatiable quest for foreign goods is outrageous.

Kobicove:
You mean an unresponsive person was transported from VGC in Lekki all the way to Lagos University Teaching Hospital a journey which would take at least 90minutes at best...is it that there are no hospitals in the immediate locality where he could have been taken for medical attention?

/
People realize a tad too late that they are walking corpses in Nigeria. It takes one little medical emergency for some of them to come face to face with reality. There comes a time when billions in the bank cannot save one from a minor event through negligence or indifference.

May Nigeria not happen to anyone.

/

/
Those with APC flags next to their meters are excluded.

/

/
Ned knows that his suggestions won’t work because the economic blueprint of Nigeria is handed down by the colonialists via IMF, World bank. Why do you think Nigerian politicians find it more important to go to Chatham house than engage in public debate in Nigeria? US dollars is the world reserve currency. Nigeria cannot dictate what currency to sell their oil when they do not control oil price and the market. Sometimes they find it difficult to find buyers.

1% control the country. 4% are their puppets. 90% are asleep. 5% know and try to wake the 90%. The 1% use the 4% to prevent the 5% from waking the 90%. This scenario is obtainable in politics and religion. It is the world’s comfort zone.

With this experience, it's pointless trusting them with my travel plans in the future.

Let's see how long it will take to get a full refund.

/
Only God can decide when they will refund you.
AirPeace has not refunded me since April last year. So don't hold your breath.

Why book a trip on that one aeroplane wonder called United Nigeria? I am surprised that you didn't report any fights at the ticketing counter--that's their trademark.

United Nigeria and Dana Airlines have no business in commercial aviation. There should be a minimum number of aeroplanes (at least 4) in a fleet before getting a license in Nigeria.

NB: It is funny how people are defending United Nigeria. No wonder Nigerian consumers are treated like pieces of shit because they can tolerate anything. MTN, DSTV, you name it--they do nonsense and get away with it because of unsolicited and unpaid public defenders we have

/

/
The price will reduce to about N500/liter.
But fuel queues will return and it will be so scarce that people will be begging to buy at N800/liter if available.

Believe APC propaganda machine at your own peril. It is an established pattern of behaviour--as soon as the VP Shettima gloated about naira, it took a nosedive back to N1400/$.
