Are you minding these guys, to them election is war, it is like champions league, it is not about having a better country or society, it is to win at any cost even means supporting devils from their side to win just to make themselves feel superior and mock their supposed opponents...

That's one major reason why the country is where it is today...

Yeah, a candidate that's confident of winning doesn't need violence.

MartinCorridon:
Brendaniel. . You have been appropriately notified on a timely basis. 2 years notice.

Other landlords aren't this nice. And we all know

This is a case that everyone should actually be worried about, the guys that cause mayhem during elections what do you think they do when there are no elections 🤔 don't you think it's crazy living in an environment where someone is openly threatening people?

WizardOfNG:
More or less. Blockage of gutters and drainage channels remain a major issue not helping matters at all.

Yeah, the government should be strict about it

Lanretoye:
who is condemning flood in the south east abi it is you people like pot will be calling kettle black…even advanced countries like America,Canada experience flood.
You can’t call out people and expect they won’t dignify you with commensurate response

And those advanced countries have put measures in place to help flood victims, what has Nigeria or the state government done?

WizardOfNG:
@OP.

It was terrible and it is right Lagos Government issue a statement on it. I was stuck in it coming from Malnland at 11.00am , enroute to a meeting at VGC, to arrive at 7.00pm. It was a horrible experience.

Lagos State Government must learn from this development and move to ensure the problem gains permanent solution.

Flood that is capable of crippling the main road, i.e Lekki Expressway, that runs across the lenght of the lekki end of Lagos Island, beyond Awoyaya and onwards to Epe, is simply unacceptable.

Commendable Lagos state Government acknowledged the problem, cited the challenges and have assured they will do the needful.

Hopefully, Lagosians will no experience this again.

Is this not a yearly occurrence now?

Sowore is acting like the saviour of the whole universe Wait until he gets the opportunity to serve. Then, you'll know his true colours.

How are you sure about his true colours if he has not served?

nairalanda1:
Because y'all pay what should be paid to guarantee 24/7 light. Here in Nigeria, we don't.

if they've made you believe it, that's on you

nairalanda1:
You get what you paid for. If this fact makes you sad, I can't help you, but I can tell you that not everything in life favors us.

Sorry I don't live in Naij and can't relate, even the poorest households here don't live in darkness

nairalanda1:
You get what you pay for.

Monthly power bill in France : 195000 naira
Monthly power bill Nigeria: 20000-50000 naira

You don't even get what you pay for, majority of businesses that spend a lot on diesel can afford this, will they get unlimited supply of power of they pay?

Brendaniel:
While Tinubu is enjoying 24 hours light in France, chai!

Even in Aso rock, 24/7 electricity is not a priority to average Nigerians so they just endure the darkness

ZeemsPropeties:
Every day I read the comment section on NL, I question myself. This platform is consistently filled with low IQ comments that makes you feel your time on this platform is a waste of time.
Something should be done to the level of conversation here. I feel smarter people should contribute and not just leave this platform to cretins that can't think beyond party affiliation.

@seun and everyone else in charge. Please, bring back the deactivation function. You shouldn't hold people hostage on your platform. A user should be able to close his account on any platform.

Correct, that's why there is a huge gap between this place and Reddit

Bring out the popcorn 🍿

ImpartialGuy:
It's not as if these guys are paid for breaking this Guinness World Record. Who's bankrolling him?

Visibility, that's the most important thing

ednut1:
same obama that tried to blackmail Africa to legalize lgbt? Same guy that took out Ghadaffi leading to arms smuggling to Nigeria and the sahel, same guy that funded isis. Abeg abeg🤡

Which was good, you should read up on the crimes of Gaddafi

https://www.icc-cpi.int/defendant/muammar-gaddafi

https://www.hrw.org/report/2012/10/16/death-dictator/bloody-vengeance-sirte

What's also the big deal about the LGBT? Has Africa made progress without legalisation? Or does it affect economic development?

whummy4:
Do you mean a permanent resident or a valid Visa which is not a visit visa?

Not visit visa

whummy4:
Please does anyone have information about applying for US visit visa from the UK, is it better to mention you are staying with someone or you will be staying in a hotel. Any advise or suggestions with overall application will be appreciated

It'll be denied if you're not a resident

fxexperts:
You must be very dumb at chess to make this statement. Africa is truly a shithole continent thanks to the likes of you and your dumb arrogance thinking/thought pattern. In this whole game, Trump is only trying to isolate the USA from the rest of the world, thereby leaving them exposed. In a game of chess, when a kind or queen gets exposed, they become checkmates even by a pawn.
I understand that Africans like this boastful arrogant man like Trump, who always uses all their power and might at all times, but trust me it is a significant sign of weakness. Strong men who want to remain strong forever conceal their true strength. Make my word from this day henceforth the US is on its way to losing its world power dominance, all thanks to the African man inside of the village idiot Trump.

I checked the guy's bio, he is based somewhere in Osun, I don't really understand the love Nigerians living in Nigeria have for Trump

Nefort:
Go and educate yourself. The US cannot isolate China. You think China is a small fish? China already has huge business relationships with many other countries so they can do without the US.

Apart from China, others countries are even trying to isolate the US, even their neighbours Canada are pushing American products out of their shelves, who wants to do business with an unstable adminstration?

foleskay:

I like when a country is powerful and also brags with it. Trump is just like a lion king in the pride,he knows he's the most powerful and so commands respect from the whole pride,and banishes any dissenting lion from the pride, like the case of young male lions who are usually exiled from the pride when they re becoming too stubborn for the king.

Trump just want to use the tarriff to show the world that USA is the one calling the shots in world affairs and rebels like China would be dealt with decisively if they don't respect USA.

China will later seek for dialogue with USA when she sees that it has been isolated by USA. We go watch how this chess game unfolds.

This is not about power or respect, businesses are gonna get ruined, things are starting to get expensive, it's the consumers that will suffer this nonsense.

I'm also interested to know why Nigerians or people like you are enthusiastic about the power play when it comes to issues like this and not the actual impact on common people like me and you

cococandy:
You can’t reason with a typical Nigerian on American issues. All they heard is that we have laws that prevent us from imprisoning gay people or stoning them to death and that’s all they needed to hear

Imagine being so disturbed about someone else being gay/lesbian when their own life is not even in order, it's one of the things I'm unable to fathom in this life

JASONjnr:
Democrats are really dummies......


The LGBTQ+ and gay activities they sponsored through world bank and USAID is the reason for all these protests....

This LGBTQ thing is really over flogged, how many percent of the population even belong to this group?

Slytiger:
Check the link posted above where Trump is even facing opposition within the GOP. If your 401k or investment is losing money as per the $2.5 Trillion wiped out from the stock market yesterday or that car you are eying that's going up by $4000 or the cost of maple leaf syrup and wine you buy from Canada and Europe, or the cost of iphone and Nike manufactured on China and vietnam respectively are all going up, you will gladly join the protest too . Unlike Nigerians, Americans are not docile.

You can literally become homeless if you lose your job in USA, people won't sit back when they lose job due to government mass firing

Angelfrost:
Sigh... My serious question remains:

Who actually leads America while this clown is fooling around and blabbing online and offline?!!

Nor be one chance Americans don enter like this?!!

This is his plan, doing shit like this till 2028 without any actual governance

SatoshiX:
This man and his never ending PR 😂
Some nonentities that are not aware of the real situations in Burkina Faso will come here to praise him. Mugus 😂

Heard there is no free press, so every news/information out there is probably controlled by the government

Image123:
We are specifically and intentionally banned from many countries today because of our notoriety, not because of any human rights and insecurity. Those ones may only affect your chances of a visa, not all these other things. Thank you.

I think you're exaggerating when you say many countries

naturefellow:
spot on. Not to talk of the huge financial investment and sponsorship put into such a self-centering venture.

Talk about improving the reputation of the green passport is unconvincing

The situation is not even peculiar to Nigerians, other countries without visa access to the West have to go through the same process, and it's not this kind of adventures that'll give any visibility or whatever, if the economy of the country is not strong enough or bilateral relations are poor it won't fix anything, with a Mauritian passport you have visa free access to about 94 countries(EU and UK included) how many Mauritians are trying to flee their country 😅

Image123:
UAE readily comes to mind. Many Asian countries too.

It's only ordinary Nigerians that are affected, if you take a closer look, how many Nigerians are actually relocating to UAE or Asian countries? Nigerians are even a minority group in these places, the whole crime thing is just over flogged because Nigerians like to make noise, their are more white foreigners that are nuisance in these Asian countries compared to Nigerians, but they can't just place ban on them because it will backfire

id4sho:
Lucky you bro, I guess it's not your first visa from Nigeria and you've been to top five countries 🤷

I didn't apply from Nigeria actually

id4sho:
Australia visit Visa wey hard 😥

Funny enough, that's the easiest visa I ever got, and I might not even use it

Image123:
It will NEVER happen if citizens go to other countries to be criminals and cultists. We are specifically and intentionally banned from many countries today because of our notoriety, not because of any human rights and insecurity. Those ones may only affect your chances of a visa, not all these other things.

Which countries are you referring to exactly? And are the politicians also banned from these countries?

billionman:
I think she already expressed the challenges she was going to face as a Nigerian regarding visa delays. Her attempt is to help unveiled the challenges Nigerians face with getting visas due to the nature of our passport. She might not have broken the existing record, she however has succeeded in putting the visa challenge out there.

And now what's going to be the outcome? Countries will suddenly make it easy for Nigerians to visit?

Image123:
That was the whole point na. Some people were trying to gaslight us that there is no limitation on our passport. The blame here is 99% on criminal Nigerians who went abroad to spoil things for others, so please sore losers should not attempt to resume wailing yet again. Politicians hardly have these issues or go abroad to disgrace us. Let's talk seriously to our brothers and sisters contesting to dominate foreign prisons.

It's common for third world countries to have passport disadvantage, it's not due to criminal Nigerians
