SwordBezalel:
This is exactly the how it will look when the whitemen decided to switch countries with the blackmen. The blackmen will turn the white man's land to ruin, while the whitemen will turn the black man's land to paradise.

grin grin grin
Big lie. Please outgrow this mentality, not good for you. Do some proper reading/research and understand why this kind of stereotype about black people is being peddled.

For this to become realistic the mindset of the people living there in Onitsha must have to be recreated and renewed which is almost impossible right now the govt can't do everything.
Let the government first provide the basic infrastructure, and ensure proper maintenance. Are you telling me that if there is a proper waste disposal system, people in Onitsha will prefer to dump their waste in the gutter and on the streets?

It is the same government that is responsible for civic education, public health awareness, law enforcement, public orientation, leadership by example etc. that will lead to the mindset of people becoming recreated and renewed.

This is achievable,but it will Make no sense closing multiple business just to make a city finer,
Like who are trying to impress?
One high-rise on the same road can accommodate the multiple businesses. They don't have to be on the roadside to get patronage. No matter the scale or type of business they can all be situated in a plaza.

A cleaner city makes for a healthy and productive population. Making a city 'finer' is not about impressing anyone it is about improving the quality of life.

Please I beg you and the people that liked your comment to change this kind of mentality of beliving that black people are backwards or inferior. This is a stereotype that has being used to keep us down.

Don't tell me you believe there are no rundown hoods in cities in Europe, North America and Australia?

Please don't let this kind of comment be associated with you, it smacks of ignorance.

A good striker will always save an average team. Mbeumo is the difference. Look at how he just saved this game for Man Utd.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Manchester United Vs Brighton (4 - 2) On 25th October 2025 by jahbenedict: 7:09pm On Oct 25, 2025
Too many substitutions by Man. Utd has made them lose their momentum. Brighton is fighting back. Wonder what the coaching crew at Man. Utd were thinking. The substitutions should have started in the 85th minute. The Luke Shaw change was good, the rest were too early.

The 3rd goal shouldn't stand. It was a clear foul by Luke Shaw. Brighton lost the ball and Man Utd. scored. Ojoro no good.
SportsRe: Abuja 2030: FG submits Bid To Host Commonwealth Games by jahbenedict: 3:55pm On Sep 25, 2025
Only 2 countries submitted a bid for hosting the games in 2030, Nigeria and India. India presented Ahmedabad as the host city, Nigeria chose Abuja.
Ahmedabad has the Narendra Modi Stadium which is one of the largest stadium in the world, capacity of 132,000. It successfully hosted the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Final. Abuja has all it takes to host the games, but they have a lot of work to do to convince other countries to vote for them.

Personal observation: I am not comfortable with a couple of people involved in this Abuja bid committee. These individuals in my opinion are sit don tight personalities, which kind of tells me it will be business as usual. Someone like Habu Gumel was there in 2003 Africa Games in Abuja, also there during the unsuccessful bid for the commonwealth games in 2014. He has been Nigeria Olympic Committee President for a long time. Another person is Mainasara Ilo, his being around forever. Was part of 2003 All Africa Games Abuja. Not saying they are bad people, just that they don't seem to ever groom new sports administrators to take over from them.

una go jst dey cap.... We have our local leagues that's been played in d stadium... Celebs use it for concerts, politician used it for campaigns... If Akpabio no build dis stadium dat time... Maybe na for inside brewery we for go play dis match today......30k capacity stadium, if dem charge everybody wey go watch football today 1k per person... That's 30m naira... If dey play 30 matches in dat stadium per year... That's 900 million naira.... grin
Your revenue analysis is on point, but typically gate takings/tickets goes to the organizer of the event. The organizer pays Akwa Ibom State to rent the stadium. In this case the NFF (organizer), will probably pocket all the gate takings. For this match, the NFF sold the tickets for 3K naira VIP, and 1K for regular. The Uyo stadium has 7500 VIP seats and 22,500 regular seats. Today was a full house, so the NFF should have made between 30 to 45 million naira from ticket sales.

For Akwa Ibom State, according to the 2025 state budget, they expect to make 10 million naira from the stadium this year (same amount they quoted in 2023 and 2024). 10 million naira is pittance. Annual maintenance cost of a stadium of that magnitude is way more than 10 million naira. The stadium is a huge liability to the state. It cost them around 16 billion naira to build the stadium. I can't recall if they borrowed to finance the construction.

We were transitioning from military dictatorship to democracy offcourse he had to travel, every other thing is not part of the context of this discussion.

But to clarify some of ur other points, if obasanjo made obvious mistakes during our teething stage democracy should other after him who acknowledge and accuse him of these mistakes also gey to power and do worse than him?? undecided

That is where the hypocrisy is.
Your points are very valid and I agree. But if he listened to some of the people who were telling him to correct some of those mistakes back then, we wouldn't be in this mess. As you said the current leaders have no excuse, they should learn from the past and do the right thing.

Don't be too quick to spit out expletives... commend him only or keep shut.

His car scents were my favourite some 4yrs ago, when I was in Abuja.
The question is very valid, has he paid his investors? Dude took money from investors and hasn't paid back. Isn't it ethical to settle his debt or even keep his creditors in the loop. He shuned them, claiming he has no money, yet he is here organizing 10 year anniversary.

This is why I respect Obasanjo till this day. He thinks Nigerian and walks Nigerian.

These criminals never get tired of their European masters.
Nobody traveled abroad more than Obasanjo. Though most of his trips were non-medical or personal. But he made the word globetrottering popular. I believe he visited about 103 countries during his tenure.

Obasanjo is actually part of the problem. During his tenure all these mess you are witnessing today was brought back into our politics. You think Edris sang Jaga Jaga for fun? Or Blackfaze's Hard life was just for entertainment? Political opponents were killed, Bola Ige, Funsho Williams, Akande etc. He pursued Fayose from Ekiti via state of emergency and then impeachment. Seized Lagos State's Federal allocation, looked the other way when Ngige a sitting governor was kidnapped. Used El-Rufai as FCT minister to demolish houses, Ribadu at EFFC to harass political opponents. Saw to the impeachment of 3 senate presidents. Used INEC to rig elections, AD was strong in the West, APGA (a new party) in the East, ANPP in the North, but in 2003 elections the way PDP won was like magic, all the western states apart from Lagos went to PDP, same in the East. Ballot box snatching and stuffing was on another level. Let me stop here.

Before watching the video, I don already know say Blackface no go ever dey their midst

That guy and malice ehn cheesy
Take it easy on the mislabeling. What malice? Do you know their everyday movement to know they don't hang out? Blackfaze is in England, this video was shot in Enugu.

u people will just come online to spew thrash, blackface gave him the right to sing it, not only that blackface fought kennis music n court case declared that his name b included in co author n he must recieve royalty which was done.

Not only that, blackface sang his own version of African Queen which I am sure u don't know about, not only that they all came together again n dropped an album n blackface also released many singles afterwards but the hate in him just won't let him blend with others.

I know for sure u didn't watch his interview with nedu where he was saying everyone stole his song from tekno to burna to olamide to psquare to asake n co.

U better don't live your life in hate else u might end up like him
Hate? Someone that vibes with Faze on a steady. Shows up and performs for his annual Faze alone concert. His relationship with 2Face will gradually blossom.

We should take time and understand intellectual property in the music industry. Go and listen to Sisqo's Thong song and Ricky Martin's Livin la Vida Loca, and tell me the similarities. Or Hey Ma by Camron and Easy by the Commodores. Ricky Martin almost took Sisqo to court, the later had to hand over the publishing to the writer of the song (not Ricky Martin, who is just the perfomer/singer). So anytime Thong song plays or is used in an ad, the writer gets majority of the money.

What Blackfaze did in regards to intellectual property (IP) theft should be celebrated, he is one of the trailblazers in Africa. Teckno had to quickly settle with Danfo Drivers for using Jogodo. Mr Eazi got permission from Tony Tetuila for using the word Fefe na Fe in his song. There a lot of examples to show that Blackface was right in his claims that people might have unintentionally or intentionally infringed on his IP.

We trivialize everything. Someone was fighting for his intellectual property and brand, he choose the legal route, cried out to the public, few people gave him support. Instead of trying to understanding the issue, he is being labeled as bitter and made fun of at every single opportunity.

I feel like na Faze be the coolest among Dem...
How do you enjoy maligning someone? Blackfaze lives in Lagos, Faze lives in Abuja, 2face seems to be spending more time in Abuja lately. Will they always be found in the same place? This video is clearly a hangout, not a studio session or anything that requires all 3 to be there. Go easy on the 'cruise', a human being is involved, this statements do hurt people.

Those of you making negative comments about Blackfaze and calling him bitter. This was his reply to the video on Instagram.

He got over 2K likes. Dude is living his life, people don't want to let him be. God have mercy.

Meanwhile ..blackface right now behind the scene.....I think it's time i stop being bitter and embrace peace!!
Blackfaze that has always showed up for Faze's Faze alone concert is bitter? Faze featured in Blackfaze's new album that came out less than 12 months ago. Fans should cool down, and let this group figure things out themselves. All these negative comments targeted at one person is not funny.

BATified2023:
the mistake blackface made was that he doesn't understand destiny, people don't move at the same pace n once your peers outpace u, don't feel jealous n don't feel bad.

Keep doing your thing n u can even move closer to them to show u way n if them no show u way keep grinding one day e go dey for u.

Imagine if blackface had reconciled with 2face n face then even when them dey solo, e for chop at least 3 collaboration each for their body n today he will also b shining n not forgotten as a bitter person.


The world left him behind cos of his bitterness
Wait until someone takes your intellectual property twice, a whole industry blackballs you and the media paints you as bad.

Picture this scenario, you gave a friend your car to use (you didn't sell it to him ooo), he then goes behind you and registers the car as his own, repaints the car and is making money off it on Uber/Bolt. When you ask him how far, he says he doesn't know what you are talking about. Before you know it everyone is calling you bad belle, over your own car. I will leave it to you, to decide how you will react or behave.

Note: It was 2Faze's label and also his manager that caused most of the problem. They made 2 friends, have issues and fall out over something both of them were willing to resolve amicably.

How is he crazy? That is an unfair statement to make. It is very easy to call someone crazy when you don't understand what they are going through or what the back story is.
