You truly are a beast. I'm sure you know it. Being a beast is a function of the heart not the looks.

If you look at the state of the nation with poverty all over and you stake your neck for Tinubu's policy be due to tribalism and the benefits you are getting, then my calling you a beast is justified.

I pray someday you realize that we don't have another nation and that what affects Nigeria affects us all -- may your children not become strangers in another man's land as you keep joining forces with those tearing Nigeria down.

Posterity will come judging and the peanut you are clinging too will hardly matter.

Stand for truth. Stand for justice. Stand for a pure conscience-- that's how you can truly find peace cause you know you have lost yours years ago.

I'm not Igbo. I'm not Obidient. I'm a speaker of truth.

helinues:
Then he's not popular as you people claimed. With the 6 million votes Peter Obi received in 2023 plus the popularity he has gained since after the 2023 election ( According to you guys), then he should retry the stunt he pulled in 2023 and let see if he would receive 3 million votes in 2027

I'm not Igbo and neither are some of friends.But I can tell your for free that the guy is 99.999% correct.

GodPunishOsu:
I've helped you correct your comment,hope you will be great ful to thank me later

Did he mention that he was married? Isn’t that an assumption on your part and secondly, how are you sure his wife isn’t an orphan? Sometimes, we just jump into conclusions. It is always best to know that everyone has a rationale behind their actions.

Which America, please? You’re misinformed, please.

Only a first degree murder with clear proof of premeditation would be considered for death penalty. Not a clear case of self defense— premeditated murder— a murder with intent is what is considered for death or life sentence.

And yes! Not a case that certainly occurred from someone trespassing on another’s property.

Now, let me ask:

What premeditation existed here. What intent did the farmer have to kill?

Ikaeniyan0:
Even in America, he will be sentenced to death. It's left for the state government to rightfully pardon him

Like they said:
You don't have to use USSD code.

Now, you need to know that using your bank's app doesn't attract any charges.

nwirinedu:
This is an unfortunate situation that happens when we have a weak bank regulator ,that is failing in its oversight function and its statutory duty of customer protection. What happens when incompetent people are at the helm.

Sam banks that create money out of nothing by ripping off customers. Why should customers be forced to pay for bank services with their airtime? What is the cash in the bank balances then used for?

They wont even pay up their obligations to the Telcos who provide services to them.

You have been paying N6.9k for every transaction initiated using any bank's USSD-- whether It is successful or not.

Once you type a USSD code to make a transaction, you are charged N6.98k from your bank account.

I had complained severally to my banks with loads of emails as to why I am billed, they said it isn't them, it is my service provider.

I called MTN call center and they said they have a contract with banks to charge N6.98k for every transaction initiated using USSD code.

Now, that is aside the bank's charges.

I had taken it up, but there was nothing I could do so I accepted my fate, as I didn't want to download any bank's app.

Barely a month later, I'm reading that the charges was me paying the debt my bank owed the Telcos-- and we will keep paying until the debt is cleared.

Then, the new bill will take effect where we will only be billed for successful transaction directly from our call credit instead of our bank account

Nigeria, my country.

No accountability to subscribers or customers by both the Telcos and the Banks. They wrap up their exploitation in a bunch of high-tech grammar so you are unsuspecting.

----
Let me add:

I had told them they had no right to charge for failed transaction-- These telcos charge you N6.98k even when the issue is from their end-- once you type your bank's USSD code and type what you want to do, you are billed even if you change your mind about the transaction. This has been going on for years in a country we are supposed to have leaders.

Daylight robbery. And the thing is:

The N6.98k charges notification isn't sent to your SMS. It is sent to your email. So most people don't even realize that each time they initiate a USSD transaction, they were billed.

They only see the bank's charges as SMS.

Why are we paying 6:98

I feel like he was ashamed to say the real story but the man of God discerned it and mentioned that he went to source for wealth and was given that charm that requested for his sister.

That’s my understanding.

The point is someone wanted salvation.

If it is fake, leave that to God—because what if it isn’t.

- It belonged to his grandfather..

Well said.

CommonSense1967:
Pedophile.

Ojuwkwu and Obi married underage girls, but you love to cry out about these Northerners as if it doesn't happen in your area too.
You can marry underage girls in many countries, even in the US.. In some States, the parents just have to give consent.
You cannot have sex with an underage girl whom you have not married. That is considered RAPE.

Dr. Ben Carson's mother, Sonya Carson, was 13 years old when she married his father, Robert Solomon Carson Jr.
Till this very day, in some States in the US, you can marry an underage girl with the consent of the parents.

These states technically do not have a lower age limit, although they require parental consent and/or judicial approval for minors to marry:
California
Mississippi
New Mexico
Oklahoma
States with a Minimum Age of 15
Hawaii
Kansas
States with a Minimum Age of 16
Many states have a minimum age of 16 for marriage with parental consent.

These criminals are always looking for excuses once they are caught. This guy should be locked up for RAPE.

As long as you are hardworking and trusting God fully, your time will come. Keep trusting and make service to God and humanity your goal. Your day will break in a way that surprises you.

The heavens are taking record and seeing your heart to help the downtrodden. If it is genuine, not too long from now, your hand will be given what to grant your heart’s desire—if it is genuine.

Only God has the ability to lift a man. No man does. ProMotion only comes from Him. Keep the faith, sir. It is your waiting season. Ensure you don’t waste it.

Life isn't easy on me at all.

Why call him that when he stated his source?

Don999:
Copycat...I read that on pulse news two days ago.

Why choose one over the other when you can simply choose a mate that can support your fulfilling purpose?

I guess that’s the lady’s message.

None has to suffer if you pick the right mate.

bentenny:
If as a lady your priority is career driven,then continue as you wish!
It's a free world!
However,if you decide to marry,you will have to choose between your career path or marriage as both can be quite demanding!

Any attempt to combine both will most likely be counterproductive as you will have to prioritize one over the other!
Both are also be unforgiving if neglected....

Before deciding which one to prioritize,ask yourself which one will offer you long term benefits.....

Fristly, Chioma Chukwuka is single—separated or divorced. Secondly, what gives you the impression that a single mum cannot advise anyone if she is genuinely happy living her purpose?

There are people that will get both right but there also some whom giving up their career would live to eternal regrets. No marriage can wipe that feeing in old age of not living your dream.

Her advice is for those in a cross road— not to choose one over the other. Those who give up their dream always live to regret it.

And her advice is to have fulfillment, to for someone who respects what you do.

But if push comes to shove, choose your happiness. Cause regret is also detrimental.

So why bash her if she is happy with her choices?

Lastly, if someone truly meets her mate, you won’t have to choose between him and her career. He would instead make it a duty to make her happy knowing she finds fulfillment in her career. And according to her, you will always see the signs of a man who won’t be supportive of what you do.

Like I am wondering how Nigerians are spewing all the hate against their fellow Nigerians. Seriously, has it gotten this bad? Aren’t we Nigerians? When did it get to this point? Lord, have mercy. The hatred in the land is real.

When I was already celebrating the unity this thread was producing, you come with your tribalism.

The Igbo young man being in Ifo is being trained by the yorubas, this is enough to have let you make a good comment, but NO! You had to make it about skull mining.

No nation ever succeeds with this kind of negativity. Diversity is a good thing, but negativity isn’t. Let’s desist from such.

Else, our politicians will keep using it to hold Nigeria and Nigerians bound. All tribes have the good, the bad and the ugly.

When addressing an ill, tackle the evil and leave the tribe. Else you will be forced to keep defending evil from your tribe’s man after speaking up against the evil perpetrated by another man’s tribe.

Always stand for truth and dissociate from ethnicity.

Jeez…what kind of error is this?? Quoting scripture erroneously and feeling scripturally correct.

What is the meaning of being a Christian is not for all Christians??
What do you mean by being born again is for the few who will inherit heaven as their permanent abode?
What do you mean by God choosing a man to become a part of the system the person will know??
The Spirit will bear witness with the person’s breath
What do you mean by ….

Please, this is too much error, I beg you.

I know you may love God but please, go back and embrace the tenets of the Christian faith. Please





quote author=MaxInDHouse post=135320688]
Being born again is not for all Christians but few who will inherit heaven as their permanent abode.
Certainly the day God chooses any man to become part of that system such a man will know because the spirit will bear witness with the person's breath {Romans 8:16} that he or she has been chosen to rule with Christ in heaven.
So while all other faithful servants of God inherit everlasting life on earth {Psalms 37:29; Matthew 5:5} the born again Christians will never become humans again after their earthly course they will become like angels in heaven {Matthew 5:3} with no gender difference! Luke 20:34-36[/quote]

Atiku didn’t make the statement. Tinubu did. It is only natural to ask the one calling for something to start it.

If Tinubu starts, then he has the moral justification to ask others to patronize Nigeria goods first.

All the guys seem to be lambasting this lady’s outfit.

Now, I’m left to wonder who are the enablers of ladies who dress like this?

Because one only keep supplying when there is a demand. If there isn’t demand for what you are supplying, you will close shop.

So the answer is simple:

We have loads of hypocrites.

Those who body shame ladies in public but storm their DMs begging for attention. This alone explains why indecent dressing thrives and will keep thriving.

femi4:
So disgusting

COVID-19 loan?? Interesting.

Chilipepper:
A Nigerian tailor has lamented bitterly after receiving a debit alert of N580k for a COVID-19 loan he took years ago. He said the money removed from his account was more than the loan he had taken. How much he borrowed years back is in the comments.

At least he has nuisance value. Which do you have? Who knows your name? Which relevance do you have ? You make light of someone who is making impact on the masses while you hide in oblivion.

He has chosen to become a voice while you hide under your bed fearing police brutality.

Please, don’t make light of his courage. If it were easy, you won’t be afraid of being a voice for the voiceless.

When people talk down on those who are doing what they can’t do, they likely reason for it is envy.

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
VDM has massive nuisance value.

A national nuisance like him or Portable cannot just disappear without people asking questions.

EFCC wen no sabi their mandate.

The guy didn’t say it is the money from the NGO. He didn’t say so. He ain’t that daft. He knows he has to be accountable for that money. I don’t follow him much but I stumbled on a video where he said himself and his team are strategizing on how to ensure the NGO makes impact since the govt wants to do what he planned to do with schools.

It is his good heart that made him do what he did.

You are thinking he did it for influence because that’s how you are wired. He did it because he genuinely wanted to help.

To be a blessing, you won’t see color, ethnicity or even country lines.

So relax, the one naira you contributed to the NGO for Nigerian schools strictly is safe.

Again, I don’t follow VDM, but I discern he is different.

poopoo:
Lol. Money donated by Nigerians used to renovate school in Ghana to increase his number of followers and be relevant internationally

Can you please keep quiet? Thank you.

How many corrupt politicians have been detained even when there are proofs on ground? Where is Emefiele? Where is Yahaya Bello? Where are our politicians detained? Yeah! Why is Babangida, Tinubu, and Buhari working free?

Name one person whom the EFCC has detained that isn’t about witch-hunting or an opposition to government.

Suddenly, the authorities are doing their jobs.

If you don’t know what victimization is, again, I say:

Please, keep quiet.

quote author=Misterone post=135257001]Oga! Stop calling Tinubu's name. Allow the security agencies to do their job. Just because VDM is a celebrity doesn't mean he can commit an offense.
If puff daddy were in Nigeria this ones will not allow the authority to do their job.[/quote]

Wow!!! This is so succinctly spoken.

olatade:
VDM is locked up for days without charge, but EFCC can’t touch Yahaya Bello, Sadiya Farouq, or Betta Edu despite serious corruption claims.That’s not justice. That’s oppression. When truth tellers are jailed and the corrupt are protected, Nigeria isn’t just broken,it’s bleeding.

Seriously, it beats me.

What does it take to be truthful? I seriously don’t understand how people are staking their necks for this government just because the president is from their tribe?

Why is everything in Nigeria viewed from the eyes of tribalism?

This is sad o! Truly sad!

1000angstroms:
What if he didn't commit any, didn't they say it is because of cyber crime? Why is APC urchins like this?

[You need help if you think everyone who speaks against this novice and corrupt government is Igbo. You truly need help—I tel you.

Is VDM Igbo?

In your head, Nigeria is made up of Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa.

Again, you need help.
