Chai, i weep for degenerative pigmentation called melanin ( black Africans).
can't you see it looks like a taxi reflected from the other side ( behind) the camera.
why is it moving inthe opposite direction from every other vehicle.
you can even see that little advert stuff that is on top of the car.
Jesus H Christ, the reflection of the other glass can be seen.

Obsession sees only the object of its madness. It believes everything it wants to believe, questions nothing.

I know that area of Ikotun, there's no road on the other side for taxi to drive on to cause that reflection. I may be wrong as I haven't been there since 2012, maybe a road has been constructed to enable a taxi drive in that direction.

I also do not believe that is the appearance of an angel as the Bible describes a different form.

Xevioso:
Wow, that's horrific.
I feel incredibly sorry for you, that's not how a society is supposed to work.

I'm under no illusions that this is an easy problem to solve, but people do need to ask for the right thing as well.
What strikes me is that the expectation of fuel subsidies almost sounds like the Nigerian public saying not "Stop stealing our taxes" ut "If you're going to steal our taxes, we want to get some too"
Whilst that might seem only fair, it means even if there are honest politicians they don't even have the funds to clean the system.

Now you truly understand how pathetic the situation is. Doing what is right almost translates to doing the wrong thing and vice versa.

Xevioso:
My grandfather was, yes.
Is this important? Have you decided you deserve your poverty and your corruption?

Nigeria is getting the government you demand.
If you demand the government makes petrol cheap they will have no economic space to do anything else.
If you decide that government corruption is inevitable only the corrupt will go into the government.

Nigerians need to start from the premise that when someone is accused of corruption, or you know someone has stolen, just call the police.
Brother, sister, father, mother, brother, sister, whoever.

If you do not strive for a better Nigeria, who will?

I have gotten to the point where I trust no one to get that done, everyone is out road make money. Corruption eats too deep. The political class are not Nigeria's problem but Nigerians themselves.

Your third paragraph made me laugh, that Nigeria could not be far away though but can one person demand for such? I also share your view but then, I have to face reality. The situation is virtually hopeless. When those who can manage the system try coming in, they are quickly paralysed or flushed out of the system again.

I have thought of what I can do for my country to make it a better place but you can not help a person that does not see its situation as a problem. You will make a fool of yourself. Nigerians have been so deprived that they don't even know what they ought to enjoy by default and when you try to make these demands from government on their behalf, you are quickly labelled as trying to be too smart or your help isn't even required.

Take this for example, 2 years ago I was among the awardees for the YES-P programme but the loan conditions were too stiff and it made no sense for a new business to be funded theough such channel. I was a bit experienced with business financing and decided we needed to protest the loan conditions and make the government convert the loans to grants or remove the guarantee clause. I started a national campaign and reached out to all awardees to unite against the loan conditions. A northerner who was connected to the presidency arranged a meeting for me to lay down our complaints and requests. I flew to Abuja and spent 4 days in an hotel before I was able to see the Presidential aide.

He gave me only one condition to fulfil before he brought the matter to the President and that was for all awardees to sign in agreement that my claims were true. He requested at least 60% of awardees signed but I wasn't able to even get 10% to sign. The excuse was that the money would eventually come and those of us who signed won't receive the money. To the best of my knowledge I'm not sure any awardee received the loan.

How far can a person go if there's no unity among the oppressed? I've thought about Nigeria's situation and I've made my decision and I know in due time I'll achieve it.

Xevioso:
So get angry about the fact that the government is not building refineries and power stations.
If the government builds power stations and refineries, charges ₦500/l for petrol, and takes the ₦320/l profit and puts it into free healthcare, education, roads, jobs, anti-corruption you are the winner.

If the government takes your tax money builds nothing and gives it Chevron and Total year, after year, after year... You may pay ₦170/l at the pump, but you and your family will be the losers forever.

Are you Nigerian? Sorry I am asking and it's because even if the government gets to the point of making a profit ₦320/L, everything will still be pilfered with almost nothing to show in social development.

I have gone past being angry, that's just very unproductive use of energy.

Xevioso:
You have to put petrol in a generator because the money that should be building power stations is going to foreign oil refineries.

It is just disheartening. Seeing my energy bill skyrocket out of hand is not funny and the government keeps telling lies about the situation.

ivandragon:
have you finished playing your candy crush?


all these toddlers with access to the internet...

Lol, I was developing a national competition for the game until I discovered the bulk of players are broke and can't pay a fee to get the opportunity of winning a larger sum. I don't play the game personally.

Believing Nigerians have adjusted to the new price easily points you out as a minor who doesn't know what it takes to fuel a car and running 2 generators daily for 12 hours.

When daddy and mummy stops giving you allowance, you will start to understand these things.

ivandragon:
increasing the price is not the issue, after all, Nigerians have already adjusted to buying fuel at between N200-N250 per litre over the last couple of days...


the issue is the lies, obfuscation, buck-passing & refusal to acknowledge the glaring truth on subsidy payment...


from the statement of Kachikwu, it is obvious this administration is confused & only looking for whom to lay the blame on.

Speak for yourself. If you think others are only fueling 950va generator like you then you are wrong.

The man said he is now Superintendent but you're reducing him 2 ranks down. ASP is 2 ranks below SP.

Datazone:
Mr man, going by your assessment you're wrong. If Ijaws claim to be the 4th, then they must be evenly spread to a degree. I am from Delta and I have lived here my whole life, I put it to you, I have not seen up to 10 Ijaws.

What part of Delta state do you live in?

Impressive

give your life to Christ or face eternal damnation

Luke 12 : 49

"I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!

You need psychiatric help and you also need to rediscover Jesus. You are not different from Jim Jones.

kodded:
[s][/s]there is nothing like zombie Christianity boy




am very sure if you and that drunkard call freeze existed in Jesus time, you would have insulted Jesus for collecting 5 love of bread and 2 fishes from a poor boy





....in fact you would have called the boy a zombie too




....you better give your life to Christ this new year and stop following that agent of lucifer called dadick-frezze

You need more work on your salvation than me.

You really think you can spread the gospel with foul words and intimidation?

You are doing the kingdom no good. If you are the model bible believing Christian then Jesus made a mistake, He should have remained in heaven.

wickyyolo:
They won't see this. I never believed but since I gave my first fruit my financial status changed tremendously. Now I'm proudly handling a big contract

Maybe is my faith but it worked for me

You got lucky. God does not need your money to bless you.

kodded:
how a man spend his money is not your business






@dadick-freeze

The era of zombie Christians is over.

Nobodys:
come again please?...these una generalizations Sha... .there are pretty girls in EVERY tribe mister.

You did not understand me. I said they are average, by average I mean pretty but not that instant eye catching. I am Urhobo and I'm not making generalisation. You can compare urhobo girls to Edo girls so you can get perspective on what I mean.

bignoisemaker:
she's dope with or without makeup... More

What part of Urhobo is this girl from, because urhobo girls are usually average. Only Isoko girls are this pretty.

Political hustler, this type has nothing to offer.

Lol, thank goodness you broke the horror on this tale.

Partnerbiz:
Get money and buy the woman.
Simple.


See below...

Ayo met his wife in DELSU while he was still broke. Don't go and buy wife, stay loyal to the girl that is loyal to you now. You can always buy second and third wife if you're into polygamy.

afbstrategies:
Tithe paying members of his church right now ...

Believe me, this man is wealthier than his church and does not make his money from tithes. Latter Rain Assembly is mostly an expense to him.

Bloggers should learn how to write simple and correct English.

They should also stop embellishing facts or telling out right lies on their posts.

If bloggers fail to coordinate activities of their members, the government will step in and start making arrests.

TheUbermensch:
If life won't care about your degree why go to school then?

Smh..

It's better one goes to a federal poly sef, than attend any of those advanced secondary schools called private universities.

Go and sit down and stop disgracing yourself this morning.

When una chop mixed beans and spaghetti without finish, you feel on top of the world and start defending rubbish on nairaland. Do you even know what qualitative education feels like or you think you can experience it with your imagination?

Buhari Rides Much More Expensive Mercedes-Benz Than GEJ

While GEJ was riding an ordinary Mercedes-Benz S 350 of $135,000 (₦27million), PMB prefers much more expensive & luxury model – Mercedes-Maybach S600 of $258,000 (₦81million).

Yusuf just crashed a reported ₦56million bike, and you think this CHANGE is about you

I know it won't be long before blogging is regulated in this country because you guys spread falsehood more than the truth. Has there ever been a Nigerian president that doesn't use bullet proof top of the range S class?

Missali:
Thank you very much. Have a nice evening.

You too.

baby124:
You, your friends and your family are fraudulent. Not the typical Nigerians. What did this guy do that was fraudulent for you to even type that nonsense about Nigerians. Please carry your frustration elsewhere and stop trying to tarnish the Nigerian name. Fraudsters are everywhere in the world. Your statement is ridiculous. Correct yourself instead of justifying your generalization. I doubt you are Nigerian sef.

I see now that you're a crazy person, goodbye.

makydebbie:
Bashing Nigeria?
We could do this together.

I am Nigerian, I don't enjoy doing this.

baby124:
Speak for yourself. Don’t say the typical Nigerian. All this useless and senseless talk is what makes people abroad look on Nigerians with suspicion. You may be fraudulent and deceptive. I am not. Blame your own moral upbringing.

The typical Nigerian is fraudulent and there is nothing you will tell me to change my stand.

Every now and then you meet a Nigerian that is honest. I know how many Nairalanders I've dealt with in millions and I've never met them or even know what they look like and I know scoundrels I've also met here that were out to dupe from the very beginning.

I also know my life experiences, so there's nothing you will tell me about the typical Nigerian that only eats for today and forgets tomorrow.

Missali

It is really hard to see a person who can write for so long on nairaland and be coherent with proper English. What I can tell you is your ex never made it, N1m is not money in Nigeria of today, also you shouldn't hope the prosperity of a loved one will rub off on you.

The typical Nigerian is deceitful and will exploit whoever is involved in any form of dealings with them.

You are smart, I urge you to work out your own prosperity to afford you the life of your dreams. Achieving that life should be dependent on you and you alone.

sorom4:
This is the peak of incompetency that ONLY a dullarddd can do.

In 2019; its left for us to continue in these mess or choose the right way

What is the right way? It seems you do not realise how hopeless Nigeria's situation is.

UbanmeUdie:





Bashir Gwandu is guilty by association.


I have no sympathy for him!

These kids are the biggest nuisance in Abuja, if they are drag racing in cars and knock a person down fatally, that person died for nothing and their family can do nothing.

afrika:
Where did he get fuel from?

There's fuel, it's only selling for between N250 - N300 a litre, at least in my area. As for this dude, there's probably a Special Assistant for petrol.
