......so Governors spending Billions to maintaining their respective offices no be today?! Even our darling, saint Peter Obi spent ₦5B+ both in 2008 and 2009 to maintain Governor's Office. LOL!

Same Obi budgeted ₦2.8B for Education and ₦1.2B for Health in 2009.

[color=royalblue]Thief!

But still a lesser thief I am willing to wager on

5 billion for your office?

Anyways, he said the priority for that year was infrastructure, and he budgeted 12 billion for it. So maybe, that is why Education and Health suffered that year.[/color]

She dey prepare better poison when typing that. What will be going through her mind. No woman will ever want her husband to marry another

raumdeuter:
Someone said the reason why we don't have generational business and wealth in Africa is because of Polygamy. When the main man is gone, the bitterness from the children will never allow them work together

The first set of children/wife will hate the 2nd set of children and wife. Once the main man dies, they now will use that to settle scores

Also when you know there is someone out there who might come for the business or lay claim to it many people no dey put body again

Plus wahala of dealing with plenty women, when you go get time expand your business sef. IMO its better to have side runs than to formally marry them

Just a few hours ago, I just heard a rumor that guy I know personally a top guy at one bank took a 2nd wife. Its a rumor I dont know if to Text him congratulations

izzou but when you consider the amount of single mature women don't you think Polygamy one way or another is inevitable

[color=royalblue]What the flying fck is this, sir?

Sincerely, I can't see the advantage of Polygamy, especially for those who are successful.

And besides, there are single matured men naa. . They should hook up with themselves[/color]

Roland17:
That is absolutely false, people make assumption on what they don't know about.

Like every social group, or gathering, you are going to have people with questionable character but it had nothing to do with the club or a requirement to join the club. Like I said earlier, being closed with stringent membership requirement in their early years, particularly into the 90's made it easy for the tale to sell.

If you are talking about the late Chief IIodibe (Ekene Diri Chukwu Transport) then yes, he was quite the man. He was a giving, honest man with legit business. We lost a great Igbo son there. Keep resting Sir! Another Igbo son that isn't talked about much, mostly because of his personality is Dede Cosmas Maduka (Coscharis Group). If you or anyone ever gets a chance to meet or listen to him live, don't miss it.

[color=royalblue]Yeah. It is him

The fall of his empire started with the battle of his wives.

Omoh, maybe i am wrong, but i cannot see the advantage of having a polygamous home. Thumbs up to our Muslim brothers, but in the Eastern Nigeria, all the men i know with two wives always have issues.

Roland17:
From the little I know, their history dates back post Biafra war after Igbos lost a lot of their businesses to the war. A group of influential Igbo sons came together and formed the club with the aim of pulling financial resources to assist each other get back on their feet and they have not looked back since then.

They used to be a closed group with stringent membership requirements but I think they have relaxed a lot of those and are more open to membership. Most of the theories were popular because they were closed in the past and those tales mostly exaggerated or false.

As far as I know, it is a legit Igbo socio-cultural group with influential personalities from all works of life. I have uncles/aunts who are active members including here in the States and their gatherings are usually LOUD! I will tell you, they have influential Igbo sons on their roster and do a lot back home.

[color=royalblue]Toor!

I used to hear those guys were occultic.

I was listening to Oliver D Coque's track about People's Club, and i heard him eulogise Austin Ilodibe.

That was why i now mentioned you

I know say Ilodibe na legit businessman, till his demise.[/color]

[color=royalblue]Roland17

Do you have any history on People's Club of Nigeria?

I don dey hear different theories as a kid.[/color]

Been thinking of how to create time to visit the bank only to see credit alert.

We can use our time for productive things rather than queueing up in the banks only to be told to check back in 7 days as if it's water you'll use to come back in 7 days.

[color=royalblue]Nigerian Customer service naa.

What do you expect?

They always want to see you again.[/color]

Itsrm:
Have I been lucky or banks have really improved?

Transfer of 30 and 20k(from Zenith) plus another N3,200(From First bank) . Was debited but none of the recipients got it.

All three transactions got reversed back to me without stepping into any bank to lay a complaint.

Impressive.

[color=royalblue]If it is GTB, I am sure it will be reversed

But you see UBA, just know you must go and bark at the Customer care[/color]

Roland17:
Since Nigerians will never learn because of their greed, make dem run them street again.

Where are the regulatory agencies when you need them?

MMM is back to accomplish whatever is left of gullible Nigerians, it is clearly stated on the banner...

[color=royalblue]To finish them completely


Mortal Kombat style![/color]

BlueRayDick:
As in….. na who get plenty time go still continue to dey engage at this point .

E just be like make person dey try fill a basket with water .

Make government dey waste money dey go, make political office holders dey cap “ Tinubu inherited a broke country “ , and make the government defenders dey park Mourinho kinda bus for here dey defend dey go.

[color=royalblue]Yesterday, we claimed the FG spent 880 million to sponsor 590 people.

You claimed they went on their own, and could be representatives of unions, primary schools, WhatsApp groups, etc

Today, the FG has come to say they spent your resources to carry and take care of 422 people for 2 weeks in Dubai.

You still run come here to share the thread.

Did he forget what the point was yesterday?[/color]

Olowunl01:
I am more likely to believe the 590 from a reputable journalist than 422 from FG, as per Naija we are very good in padding, could very well be that 422 is official without padding but the padded figure is what would inform the expenditure.

I don't really like dabbing into convo already tainted with partisanship APC vs PDP/LP, but even that 422 is a lot just from the FG, I personally don't think Nigeria is broke cos the way our Leaders waste money, see Malawi naa.

The total cost of 422 people to Dubai would be in Billions, Flights ( definitely Business Class - and rightly so too cos mesef won't fly long distance on company tab anything less than business class, it's the norm) Hotels nko? Estacodes?

So I understand when people are outraged about such waste, especially when we say the country is broke.

[color=royalblue]I really wish yoi didn't reply.

Let him litter here with excerpts, still shooting himself on the foot.

I was surprised we had 120 delegates in 2022, and if we go by the same template that all are not sponsored, then the FG paid for less than 120 in 2022.

Senior man, you for no reply, walahi.[/color]

Ellexy:
Laboured to finish season 1. Had to quit midway through season 2. Never picked it up since then.

Ibime:
Once you get into it, you won't stop watching. It's top 3 series of all time with GOT and The Wire

[color=royalblue]Are you being serious now?[/color]

Itsrm:


It gets better as you watch

Seasons 4 and 5 were the peak seasons. So if you can manage till the end of season 4, you would have watched the very peak. If you still don't find it interesting at that point then it's not for you.

[color=royalblue]Abeg make i reach Season 2, before we begin peak/off-peak periods.

Put me in your prayers! [/color]

BlueRayDick:
Na that ozarks overhyping sef make me down it that year; I just cut my loss and moved on after seeing how boring it was.

[color=royalblue]E be like say white people like am well well.



Everywhere na Ozarks.

Abi na paid marketing dem do? [/color]

BlueRayDick:
I didn't enjoy ozarks too, I dumped it eventually. But I assure u Breaking bad actually makes sense if u can be patient enough

Theflint1:
Ozark sort of falls of sha, but na solid show, at least in the beginning.

[color=royalblue]I am on some movie groups and if you see how people choose Ozark as one of
their bests, ehn?

Sometimes i go back to search if there is another Ozark [/color]

Itsrm:
It did not start off with a bang. You have to be patient with it. If by the end of the 4th season you're still not fully into it, it's probably not for you.

[color=royalblue]End of Season what?

Na 5 seasons, and you want me to evaluate my interest at the end of Season 4?

Sire, thou art unjust [/color]

BlueRayDick:
That's how it was in the beginning. It got interesting along the line; it requires patience before u start enjoying it.

iamoyindamola:
No be only you

[color=royalblue]Omoh!

The same thing happened to me when i tried Ozark

I no understand how these shows are hits. [/color]

[color=royalblue]I am struggling to break into Breaking Bad

The thing be like wetin go dey boring.[/color]

[color=royalblue]Nigeria had 1411 delegates.

The FG is being accused of sponsoring 590 to the tune of 880 million..

I am sure 1411 - 590 = some difference, shey?

Why go back to a list of 1411, pick names and start asking questions as if the issue was not that 590 was sponsored by the FG?

Did the FG sponsor 590 or not?[/color]

Taguchi:
Although aside government officials it's possible for accredited NGOs with observer status, IGOs,Top academic institutions and companies to be invited if they indicate interest but let's be honest nothing concern folks like toke with Net zero emission and sustainability.

So if she really Dey there in fvcking expensive Dubai for 2 full week then it's almost certain someone took her there and that someone ain't toke makinwa.
Also and she didn't go there to "update any yeye CV"
She no go Egypt last year,nor Scotland the year before but na sweet Dubai she come go to update CV.

I might be wrong tho

Maybe she's really an energy consultant for Arup Siemens and Agip, or she is a professor of environmental risk and sustainability from UI or she's definitely the special adviser to the president on green house gases and climate change.

[color=royalblue]She went on her own and spent her money.

That is what matters to us/them[/color]

Itsrm:
At the end of 8 years, they will finally agree with you the government was a disaster and beg you to vote the next disaster the party presents.

[color=royalblue]I seriously cannot comprehend how they do it.
[/color]

GloriousGbola:
According to to you and your friends this an apc thing not so?

So why would apc send members of bayelsa govt house to represent Nigeria? Does that make any sense to you?

Please download the document and go through it.

It is even written in the document - bayelsa govt house.

Go through that document and filter out by organization or by state.

But according to you it is only representatives of a country that go to climate conferences.

[color=royalblue]You sound more and more ridiculous, and that is why i am agreeing with you.

You are correct. Bayelsa State govt collected a loan to send their representatives there.

I just verified it now.

No vex![/color]

Itsrm:
It's not every noise you respond to. I agree. Except that in this case, they have actually responded but are deliberately not saying anything about the exact number they sponsored. There can only be one reason why they are hiding it.

[color=royalblue]Because they did not sponsor anybody

There is no list.

Everybody paid their money to get there.

C'est fini.[/color]

GloriousGbola:
Charles soludo is on the list. Did the fg invite him too?

Several bayelsa govt officials are on the list. Did fg invite them?


Is it too difficult for you to understand that this is a multifaceted international event and different people will go in different capacities? As representatives of Nigeria, representatives of their state, representatives of their company?

[color=royalblue]So, the FG cannot invite Charles Soludo again? Like..I don't understand.

The FG cannot invite Bayelsa state officials again?

What the fck are you saying, sir?

Well, I agree with you...Yes, representatives of companies, families, WhatsApp groups, etc

You're right, oh[/color]

TrebleChamp:
It makes sense to APC asslickers bro, same way Buhari horrible 8year rule made sense to them until he left office....

[color=royalblue]Bashar Ahmed that was chopping free salary even after leaving office; A punishable offence by law

That is the same person telling us he was invited by the FG and he paid his own money to go to Dubai and come back...?

[/color]

TrebleChamp:
Izzou dey form this hot afternoon 😁, this is how some people defended Buhari Govt for 8 years. Arguing with polithiefcians/political party asslickers is a total waste of time..

[color=royalblue]This thing na ordinary common sense.

The FG invited these people, and asked them to use their money...How can anybody believe that?

UNILAG invited you for an event, and asked you to use your money? Does this even make sense?
[/color]

[color=royalblue]Tinubu has unlocked the art of spending without being probed.

Oga will not even respond. Then the DMFs will tell you he is unbothered by detractors.

Dem dey chop you, still dey blow you breeze

Canada that took 100 people, paid for them.

But you want to convince yourself Nigeria invited people, and they paid for themselves? [/color]

Taguchi:

[color=royalblue]These guys are premium jokers naa

Ordinary invitation to another state, the FG takes care of the expenses. I have not seen anyone who incurred any expenses on behalf of a government.

Was it not here that state governors were budgeting billions for honorarium?

Then suddenly Toke Makinwa and Dayo Israel went to Dubai with their money? [/color]

GloriousGbola:
you are free to believe that the FG sponsored 5000 people if some online blog said so.

if you want to beleive that the FG also paid for dangotes side chick to be at the conference, thats on you

nothing i can do about that.

there is an open document that you can download and peruse and figure out for yourself.

[color=royalblue]Don't mind the detractors, bro.

I have an open document that they paid the FG sef to represent Nigeria[/color]
