Hmmmn! Can you see the lesson here? Dangote a Muslim Billionaire is friends with a Christian Pastor... Slowly think about it... Think again!

You will be here on NL insulting Pastors and Men of God with you 5,000 bank balance.
You think life is just by hard work and connections? Life is also spiritual...

You better think twice and stop being a poor angry person.

This lady spews a lot of anti-family and anti-marriage advise and comments on social media. If she failed at her own marriage, it doesnt mean others will. She should look inwards and heal from whatever hurt she is amplifying to the rest of the world. I send light and peace her way.

So, I have some questions for Hushpuppi and WoodyBerry.

1.) Did you think it was going to last forever? If No, then you were not as smart as you thought.
2.) If yes, then what was your exit strategy? Did it involve becoming the object of contention between trans border security agencies?
3.) Why were you guys arrested so easily? Didn't you invest into security and intel gathering operations for own safety?
4.) Where were you buying things that were so expensive that it warrant investigations into the source of wealth of the owner of such items?
5.) Then use social media swear for all of una? What were you doing posting your life on social everyday? when you knew you were criminals?

In summary, your lack of exposure and poor education is the reason why you are in this hot mess today. It is just sad that you have once again contributed significantly to soiling the name of Nigeria internationally.

bigseank:
if you finished from Lasu in the 1990 & 2000, years of bababunmi, akesode, leigh & Hussein. Nothing, i mean nothing can shake you in this life. The school has really changed and am a proud alumni. i remeber vividly the academic and non-academic staff protests during leigh and husseins regime, see Juju placed allover the administrative buildings, i can still remeber someone throw a stone at hussein and it met him square on the forehead, or the different cult hits in broad daylight at the school ojo front gate. The tunde salau brutal macheting and all the saga that followed after. i remeber vividly the fall of damilola, i was on campus not too far when damoche fell at the gate. That school made me.

On a lighter note, How many years you spend for LASU? because these incidents you mentioned occurred well over 10 year apart.

You be LASU ancestor!

So many negative comments, as many as just desirous of reinforcing their biases that are based on ethnic and tribal sentiments.

I pray the break up of Nigeria never happens in some of your lifetimes, then you will know you were just ungrateful for what God gave you.

You think Nigeria will split and it will be well the sub entities? Do you know the local and international power tussle that will reverberate through those entities? Please go and read about other entities that towed the same line in Africa. Don't go and read about Europe and Co... Look for African stories and you will just pray for Nigeria to work.

Boldness that wasn't necessary! Why climb an electric pole when you are not trained to do so? What a sad tale!

Stop being a hard guy, you might end up like this.

I always tell people, every time you lower the bar on civility, It never comes back up. It can only get worse. This what we need to avoid as a people!

Nigerians better get ready!

These are the kind of ill thought through policies govt will be churning out in the coming as oil revenue keeps disappearing.

Many of you wanted Fowler out - who increased Lagos govt internally generated revenue when Obj refused to give Lagos federal allocation for 8 years without burdening the populace - now you will get the whip from elements that don't care about the people and would not be bothered about using their brains.

Don't worry, winter is coming!

FGonline:
hahaha

Funny u

I dey tell you! Mama rugged wella! Na woman like man!

Some 20 years ago, my mama beat Sister (who was like 27 years old then ooo), let even say both of them fought physically, my sister be like person wey escape for lion hand.

When my then 40 year Uncle saw my sister some days after with her battle wounds, he just started laughing at my sister. He said "you should have asked for my opinion before fighting your mother. When I was in the university, it was the fear of your mother beating me that made me face my studies and graduate with good grades. Anytime our mother wanted to discipline me, she report me to your mother, who would beat me, a full grown man, blue black."

Lol!

These people never know wetin dey happen. Una go borrow tire.

This is sad!

However, this the reality of the current global economic conditions. Oil money is going to keep disappearing and a mono income economy like ours will only continue to be brutally beaten.

The next thing will be to tighten the taxation belt, citizen need to be ready for the change ahead.

Yet we blame others...

Looking for oil? Can they see the price of oil? Can they just look at all the politics around oil? Yet they want oil in the north, when they have endless arable land for farming and livestock?

I give up!

Nigerians killing Nigerians because of profit and money.

Yet they will blame govt & leaders for everything...

All those people shouting that Nigeria doesn't belong together will be in for the shock of their life when Nigeria splits. Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba or any other tribe, we are still the same covetous, greed and vain people.

If we don't fix our collective values, if you like spilt Nigeria into households, these issues will persist.

Omo, my mama tough O! I don't know if I can marry her type as she stubborn join the thing. I love her to death as my mama buh as a wife, I go run O jare.

This is what all these Other Africans do. They do everything within their powers to ruin Nigeria and Nigerians. Nigerians with their large hearts are also always to generous to see that the people around them hate them.
These are frivolous issues but are being weaponized by listing large numbers of issues.
The US wants him out of the organization, he has been investing in programs that will genuinely benefit Africa and Africans. These organizations are set up to keep Africans perpetually impoverished.

I don't agree with the Police detaining him as this should be a civil matter between the Poet and Lai and Lai can use the services of the appropriate court to seek redress.

However, this isn't poetry. This is repugnant and utterly tasteless. Nothing justifies the vituperations, we need to stop lowering the bar on civility, It never gets better.

He could have passed the same message in a more sensible way.

Dude! There are other things wrong with you mentally and psychological that you need to address urgently.

I have always had differently colored patches on my chest and stomach. I have had a full iron burn mark on my stomach since childhood. I always remove my shirt anywhere, my wife is always angry about it.
Let me shock you, I even have a big round belly too and I don't care at all about what anybody thinks about me.

Nobody can tell you who you are but you.

Get help in fixing your mind, your body isn't the problem.

Take heart Bro. Things are hard today doesn't mean they won't get better tomorrow.

1. When your rent expires, kindly move away from that neighborhood so that your wife will not be seeing her ex often cos this will keep making her sad. Women can be like that sometimes.

2. Do not wish the other guy evil... Just ask God to lift you too and wish him well. Don't be bitter towards your wife or her ex, you need to learn to let go and have a good heart.

3. Spend time with your wife talking about the the plans for the future and how your current steps will lead to them. Hopefully, this will reassure her and help her get over her regrets.

4. Don't fight her during this period, she needs to feel like someone is on her side, especially now that even her own thoughts are accusing her of making a bad decision by leaving her ex. Speak kindly to her, help her out in the house, support her dreams, show her that you love her. Stop fighting her, even when she is edgy, be the bigger man and calm her down.

5. Finally, you need to double down on your hustle Bro, don't get complacent. Find new things to do, learn new skill, get a second job, get a side gig, just keep moving.

May God grant you wisdom and success.

For those of you that don't know, this guy is the main reason why LASG has taken up this matter. He was the main target, Funke and Co are just collateral damage.
He fell into a trap that was avoidable!

lonelydora:
Buhari and his Fulani brothers know exactly what they are doing. They want to islamize this country by force.

Are you people aware the army has started setting up RUGA settlement in military barracks across the nation saying it will help create employment. This is why Buhari has refused to remove Buratai.

The boko haram they created is haunting them big time, and they now want to use another method to take up our lands by force.

The earlier Southerners/Middle Beltans unite and fight this war, the better for them.

Where is your evidence?

NimrodEndOfDays:
GTFOH

TROLL! Shoooo! Be gone!

NimrodEndOfDays:
if you feel a complex I cannot help you. This is a site to share ideas not a military barracks. If you cannot discuss then it's not me you should blame.

TROLL! Be gone!

NimrodEndOfDays:
And we all must die because the white man is scared of a United Nigeria? Please try and be intelligent when making comments!! A United Nigeria benefits the WEST. Both the British and the US. All the care about is the resources in Africa and nothing else. Please we need to be seperated to fulfill our God given destinies!! You and your tribesmen can form an alliance with the North. It's a choice.

Whoever you are, asking to " Please try and be intelligent when making comments!!" says plenty about how you narrowly see yourself/your views as the only source of intelligence on Naira land.

I don't feed trolls! Look elsewhere!

What is scary is the amount of people commenting on this thread still believing this bullocks. This means there are more people who will fall for this weak scam.

StaffofOrayan:
The reps spending N37b to renovate a building?
Why are they the highest paid in the world ?
The same ones besieged by Fulani controlled DSS?
Are you not curious why the British encouraged the civil war? Don't you have questions about this contraption called Nigeria and why the British would supply weapons to kill ourselves to stay together using their army,(zombies as Fela called them)
Don't worry your kids would soon ask you the questions I have been asking you, the questions we asked our fathers and they had no response.

I would like to know when you are coming back to lead this massive protest in your community.

My job these days is to let people think, why their protests are being met with deadly force, why just asking for better schools or protesting blackouts can lead to your death, why the youths don't experience freedom till they leave Nigeria, even just an hours flight to Ghana? why a bus would park randomly and start abducting people like slaves, but alas! They are cops! if you don’t know your enemy, you would be going around in circles.

We can both agree on one thing, if Nigeria still exists in 20 years, there won't be 24 hrs electricity, there won't be good roads, herders would still be roaming about, killing people wiping out farms, terrorists etc.

My biggest surprise is why the LGA of someone as "woke" as you is a 100% a shithole. Or can you prove me wrong ?

Having exchanged a couple of messages with you in the past 48 or so hours I have come to understand the way your mind works.

You have a set of Ideas in your head you want to further and anything different from that is extremely hard for you to understand. Also, you deflect issues by reading to argue and not necessarily to UNDERSTAND.
You use a lot of emotional blackmail by trying to make issues personal, making wildly inaccurate presumptions about people/issues you barely know anything about - says a lot about your view of Nigeria. Eg. Even though you have done so severally, I could have also made pronouncements about the fate of your unborn generations and communities if you continue on this path of secession
You are very hung up on blaming everybody else but yourself for all the problems around you and would even degenerate to mockery of those who try to impact a change and fail at it.

Those that dare to struggle are also daring to win. Stop looking elsewhere for help. It starts with you.


As such, I have decided to stay true to where this simple conversation started from, if you want to leave Nigeria, ask your Indigent Political leaders in South Eastern Nigeria what they have been doing the billions of dollars in federal allocation that they have been receiving since 1999. If you can get them to answer, then be rest assured that they will call for a referendum and you will get your new nation.

No matter the quantum of non-related issues you spew here it won't change the fact that the political class across Nigeria is the same and they have been using tribe and ethnicity as a weapon of division for many years.

StaffofOrayan:
I hear you bro
You have refused to answer any questions I put to you, why were you tear gassed for demanding better education ? Why were those students in Ondo shot for protesting?
Why do Nigerian security forces move around with AK47? Think about this and give me an answer, why is the army 157 years old? I want to force you to think today.

Nigeria is not our destiny for crying out loud ! You are not smarter than Awolowo that called Nigeria 'a mere geographical expression' before he was charged with treason by the brits.
To hold leaders responsible , the populace has to be on the same page, which is practically IMPOSSIBLE in the entity called Nigeria.
When an initiative like Amotekun can be called anti-fulani militia by the North.

You saw how Shia/ipob protesters were killed with weapons of war by the slave raiding army for protesting, is it that you can't see or you have chosen to be blind? When Politicians were slapped around abroad, where they couldn't unleash the fulani army, it was the same brain dead citizens that argued against it.

The obstruction to secession are people like you that just give rhetorics and don't even live in Nigeria. Referendum can only hold in Nigeria if Britain instructs the army to stand down. When you hear things like 'Nigeria's unity is non negotiable' who do you think is talking?

The issue is you can't see the bigger picture, everything you said is what Osinbanjo said recently is the issue with Nigeria which is bullocks. Once they leave office they would see the benefits of restructuring.

Let the oil run out and all the crap you are saying about patriotism would fizzle out in a week. Nobody likes Nigeria, they just want the oil, afterall what is there to like? Perhaps you are Hausa and afraid to be left alone with Fulanis in Nigeria?

One last thing to think about, if you are capable of deep thought, why is it that any country with a sizable Fulani population never develops? I want you to think today. Do you know Ghana is very hostile to the Fulani? Have you wondered or asked why?

Many excuses!

Fulani is the reason why the the Senators/House of rep members representing Imo or Enugu or Anambra have not asked for referendum on the floor of the National Assembly?

Go through the right channels first, hold your reps accountable and force your reps to ask for secession, if they ever will.

StaffofOrayan:
Yeah face your Councilors to fix Nigeria
Felas house was raided, his mother thrown from the balcony and killed etc
I am patiently waiting for your protest
Infact you should have carried out the protest in ur LGA to the end before leaving Nigeria,
Hopefully you don't run for ur life like Deji Adeyanju.
Have you never asked yourself why you would be tear gassed for just demanding your rights as a student? These are the questions you should be asking as a graduate.
Britain is leaving the EU and they had a peaceful referendum, but in Africa, the citizens act like Nigeria was formed by God and we have to kill ourselves to save it.
No matter how Nigeria progresses, one day your community would be burnt down by Fulani.
I'm telling we were a nation before Nigeria, don't be afraid of change!!

Now you are beginning to resort to vituperations, a sign that you are just arguing for the sake of it.

This conversation is not about me or Fela, it is about your inability to take responsibility for your own destiny and face your real enemy from within - the political class. No matter how long you wait for me, I won't be the one to further your secessionist cause. I will stand against the political class when the time is right.

You are the one that says everything is bad. Do your fair share of the lifting by simply asking for better governance from your ward level, start from some where.

You think Brexit was achieved on the pages of newspapers or on the internet? People went out into the streets, knocked on doors, canvassed for support. They paid price, it was not given to them on a platter of Gold. They forced their politicians to debate the matter in parliament by calling their constituency offices and meeting their MPs in townhall meetings. Has any of your representatives tendered a secession agenda before the national assembly? You think referendum was just announced on TV? People put effort into getting it done through the appropriate channels - their elected representatives. Go and hold your local leaders responsible for your referendum, let them gather enough support for your cause, then we will have the referendum.

Hold you leaders accountable in your village, town, constituency, LGA, Senatorial districts, state and then you can begin to look forward to better things. Start from somewhere.

The simple truth the political class has failed us all from North to South and they have sown seeds of discord that people like you keep peddling for them for free and furthering their stay in power.

mindtricks:
Hmm. You know the people you are dealing with? Those guys not human you know?
Our politicians are monsters.

Then we should start breeding our own monsters. Politicians are the enemies not any tribe or people.

StaffofOrayan:
You know your realities would change so how can you keep asking what would change?
Old Nigeria when every region took charge of their destiny was the last time anything worked in Nigeria, now imagine if every region controlled themselves in full.

Poverty capital of the world? Worst police in the world? Most out of school children in the world? 4 terrorists groups, killer herdsmen, epileptic power supply, zero health facilities, IDPS littered all over the country to mention a few is the reality of the failed entity called Nigeria.

NOTHING works in Nigeria and nothing would ever work. I'm telling you Nigeria is a failing country you are still talking about the crux of the matter.

You are just shouting go and fight politicians and I am telling you that the Nigerian army was created to suppress any insurrection!!! They would never allow it happen! The same security forces that attack citizens and burn down communities like Fulani herdsmen. You want me to lead a revolution protest and then you laugh when the live bullets starts to rain? (They bring sorrow, tears and blood)

You keep talking about the fight you were engaged in? What effect has your aluta brought to Nigeria? Didn't you have to run out of Nigeria at last? Is your aluta greater than Fela? Why didn't you wait to fight to the last? If you really believed in the struggle.

You look at elections in Kogi and talk about voting and such. Every politician know they are representing an entity they have no loyalty to. We were joined together by Britain not because we would ever work together but because they had to hand over to their slave raiding partners. Their partners ofcourse are the hausa/fulani controlled army, I would give you a clue, if Nigeria got her independence in 1960, how come the army is 157 years old? I asked you why Nigeria security forces carry AK47 to patrol the road? If you are half smart you would know the Nigerian army was created to protect British interest which Nigeria is.

CIA keeps predicting Nigeria would break up, but they underestimate the ability of the black man of negro stock to remain in the same condition and not ask basic questions.

PS: we were already countries/nations before the British came, please drill that into your consciousness!

Stop reading to argue, read to understand and not necessarily to agree.

You have a way with detracting conversations from the real purpose and I think it will be counter productive for you in other areas.

You don't want to do the work, yet you want the easy way out? Blaming everything but yourself or your kin. All these talk about what is bad and the many fallacious appellations will only go with whatever contraption you decide to leave Nigeria on if your dreams come true.

You can't face your councilor in your village yet you want to secede? What an irony!

Fela's struggle was not a secessionist one, it was one hinged on accountability and rule of law. And he was willing to pay the price because he knew the price wasn't going to be cheap. But, like you are doing now, many back then kept focusing on the divisionist and self serving politics of the time and they never supported Fela in the numbers that would have forced politicians to be accountable at the time. So the fight has been passed unto us.

My Aluta sujourn was what gave these insights into what the real problem is. I tell you what I went through. I was victimized by lecturers, school management, my results were withheld for years, I went to NYSC with my younger sister (whom I am 7 years older than)'s friends, we were tear gassed, arrested, ridiculed by colleagues, ended up with a 3.15 CGPA when I could have easily done 4.2 CGPA, spent 8 years getting a BSc degree. But you know what, I never regretted standing up for the collective good.
Since you asked about what it brought me, I will tell you. I am more open minded, I am loved by many of my comrades in struggle, I understand the power of strength in numbers. I understand the politics of fear, divide and rule. I am prepared for a future of liberation.

The size of the Nigerian military is 181,000 including the reserve forces, if we the over 180 million people of Nigeria stand by our votes, how many of us will they kill? How many of us can they silence?

Some of us are not afraid to stand up to oppression, we are not living on tables of the past, we are very well grounded in the realities of our time. We know where the problem lies and whose responsibility it is to liberate the people of Nigeria. We are coming!

I leave you to your fabled secession!

FYI: I didn't run out of Nigeria, I have never traveled to any country outside of Nigeria without it being for work related issues.

ZZ22:
Is it his work to fight the hoodlums or the work of the Police deployed to the polling units? the guy has been telling the system is faulty hence quick dissolution of the contraption called Nigeria but you keep running back and forth telling him of a certain powerful USSR which means you are in support of Nigeria.

I know comprehension can be tricky. Thank you for your contribution!

mindtricks:
A lot of wisdom though, let it not amaze you to learn that our politicians have already taken the madness to a whole new level, the next level - brazenly forcing their way to power with guns (you dare not argue with a man with a gun), recent Kogi guber election where very unpopular Bello still "won" is a good example.

Please if you are scared of guns, you are not ready to pay the price for what you want.
