Economy has tanked wailers, they cannot like this type of news. Na growth we go chop?
You don't know the serious thing God has done for you if you're not into politics or anti-Tinubu.

Bolded is correct. Being anti-anyone or anything puts you at a disadvantage because it robs you of the ability to look at things objectively. That makes you intellectually blind, even if you don't realise it. Unfortunately, being pro-anyone also has the same effect.

That said, I notice that agriculture is not among the growth sectors. Which makes perfect sense to those of us who're close to the sector. The government is still taking weak and tokenistic measures and pretending agric is fine without addressing any of the real problems of that sector. I hope they wake up.

We warned them severally to face their home region and develop the place, they called us names.
Now that Yorubas have finally decided to "ronu", let's see how they will boast about buying up lands in South West or call Lagos no man's land.
Most Yorubas I know (myself inclusive) don't make such annoying assertions about Lagos, even though it's our home, in our home region, we still recognize the makeup of the State. It's time for Yorubas from all over to protect all Yoruba territories including Lagos State to avoid stories that touch later.

Nnamdi Azikiwe tried to separate Lagos from South West but failed, Ojukwu tried same thing from the letter he wrote to Victor Banjo describing Lagos as a colony that will be under Igbo administration once they invade South West region.
Most people don't know that the greed of Ojukwu to annex lands in South West was what fueled the civil war and got Yorubas angry, they are towing same path today thinking Yorubas can't send them pack.ing.

I wonder if you have any proof of these wild claims.

ofe owerri is out of this world o. Rich and expensive. Ofe owerri is best eaten in groups. Very expensive.

If I'm alone, I'll carry container follow body then. Thanks for the heads-up.

Slayar:
I read somewhere that I should boil it, so I boiled in hot water like 20mins. it's 2weeks now and it didn't germinate.

please break down how the parboiling is done.
how many minutes and how do I parboil it.

Lol. So you actually BOILED it for 20 minutes! Na soup be that naa.

Penguin2:
Makinde should get PDP ticket and divide Southwest votes for us🤓

Well, never say never. If Obi doesn't get the ADC's ticket (which he's not likely to since Atiku is there), given that he's not on good terms with Abure-Labour, he could return to the PDP and Obidients could then reenergise PDP. See? Never say never.

thatigboman:
o yea. Ofe nsala is white soup, no palm oil while ofe owerri has leaves and palm oil used

Oh, ok. I've eaten Ofe Nsala. Probably the best soup in the world, after ogbono. Next time I'm at Mega Chicken, I'll def check for Ofe Owerri.

ebubeson:
Which amongst these soup is the sweetest when it gets old.

Is it Ogbono, Okro, Uha, Efo riro, Ofe Owerri, Banga e.t.c?

Oha carry last. I love that soup, but if it wasn't prepared 30 minutes ago, don't bring it near me.

Ogbono and efo riro age well.

ebubeson:
Which amongst these soup is the sweetest when it gets old.

Is it Ogbono, Okro, Uha, Efo riro, Ofe Owerri, Banga e.t.c?

Is there a difference between Ofe Nsala and Ofe Owerri ?

Appreciate the size of the US economy and leave all these your analysis. You are sounding as if the size of the US economy is solely because of their military industrial complex. Don't China and Russia spend money on their military. Why are they not the largest economy in the world?

Russia's and China's military industrial complex also contribute to their respective economies. Take out the military spending away from all 3 countries, the US will remain the largest economy in the world.

This is where I stopped reading. I doubt you read well or comprehend the things you read.

Amayabor1:
Anything you want to say to make you happy, it's fine. But the US military-Industrial complex contributes little to the US economy. Compared to the economy of other countries, it's contribution is large. But compared to the size of the US economy with a nominal gdp of 29 trillion dollars, the contribution by the US military/industrial complex is small (at just 1.6%).

Maybe you don't understand the size of the US economy that is why you think their economic power is due to their military industrial complex.

Why did I say that? Or you made it up to make you happy? Point is that whatever they spend on their military does not leave the country. At least, not in the way it's the case with Nigeria and others.

Besides, the WW2 example I cited is a fact. But you're doing a linear analysis without realising that a critical sector can mean a lot more than other sectors even if it's 0.something % of the economy.

Amayabor1:
But the US still has the largest economy in the world

That's because the military-industrial complex is entirely American. What the US government spends on its military ends up in its economy. Recall it was WW2 spending that took them out of the greatest recession in history. They're not Nigeria that has to buy Tucanos and whatever from abroad.

Judgesledge:
And you think the USA isn't miles ahead of Russia already in robotics

Trust me, even Ukraine is far far ahead of Russia in robotics and UAVs.

Danelo:
Not a fan of Tif-nubu but when the person he succeeded was developing the North you wear bra cover your eye??

So Buhari developed the North. Good to know.

I worship the Creator & the most high God / Jesus Christ.

So you do bow to a god. It's just that you're monotheistic and think yours is the supreme god.

Is this 7million naira you mean?

With 7million naira even relocating to another state in Nigeria will be difficult.

You are moving to a new country to start life with N7million naira, hunger go beat you, we go see you for news say you carry coco.

Some of you think million in naira is big money.

How will you settle down with 7m.
Haaaa. Some of una like suffer.
The same energy you used to make that 7m double am spread am invest and you will see yourself making multiples of 7million in 2 years.

You're right

daguru001:
Personally, I don’t like SA. I don’t believe everything about America or Europe too...as far as the Africa country is safe, good electricity and not too expensive, then am good. Later, I may think of Europe or US

Namibia
Botswana
Senegal (be ready to learn French though)
Togo (same as above)
Tanzania
Swaziland

N7m's small though.

Dumb move from Akpabio - if true. Huge IF TRUE. You just handed the drama queen another card to play.

Let us check names of who in particular was to be eliminated cos this might be Putin style

Your head dey there, my brother.

francis5051:
RIP to them Ukraine don hack their control system

Abi there was a Putin enemy inside the plane. Ordering an FSB hit on a plane full of passengers while casually munching on popcorn would be all in a day's work for Mr Putin. Ukraine has no history of attacking civilian planes. Anyway, whatever it is, my heart goes out to the dead.

Forkthiefnubu:
Yes the Yorubas were the pioneer of movie making in Nigerian but the morden movie industry known as nollywood is a purely a product of Igbo ingenuity and marginalization, nollywood was created by the igbos but right now with the state surreptitious back and better education the Yorubas have taken it over again which is not a bad thing

Yorubas started it. Igbos created it. But Yorubas have taken over. Interesting post.

ESWATINI KING AND ZULU KING, WHO IS SENIOR, SINCE THEY ARE BOTH ZULU?

Lol. You question is funny, I won't lie.

I'm interested in 5. You're an atheist or something?

Which two of them are Yahoo boys?

Max24:
Have the British done away with their monarchy and rules for the Royal family members despite civilisation? Didn't Harry opt out because he didn't want to be bound by monarchy rules. If you know you don't want to be bound by rules opt out of Obaship. It's not by force.

Who says you should do away with your monarchy? I'm telling how to preserve it so that it can last you're going off on a tangent. The British modernised their monarchy, and they're still modernising it every day. They're not running it with ancient backward practices - that's why nobody is calling for its abolition. Adapt or perish.

Spandau:
Why Adedancer has not deposed this disgrace of a monarch still beats my imagination.

What makes Akanbi a disgrace?

Max24:
Why did he do it? Dem force am to become king in the first place? If he wanted to be buried as Muslim why didn't he apply to be an Moslem leader like Chief Imam? Let's call a spade a spade. We must start respecting our forefathers. They are not dummies.

Well, it's ok not to get it. Those who do appreciate what his majesty did. He has started a trend. Let's hope it catches on so that our traditions can be saved. For if we don't reform our traditions to stop bad things, we run the risk that our children will throw everything away.

Those who think we should hold on to backward practices that belong in 1456 can go form their own bush kingdoms. But one day, their kids will still challenge them there.

Max24:
Most of us in the SW are not fanatical about religion the more reason many people disagree with what Awujale did. Some of us are disappointed in what he did.

You're probably disappointed because you don't understand WHY he did it.

Max24:
Was Alafin Sango of old Oyo Empire a Christian or Muslim? I am a Christian but I believe our culture must be preserved.

Goan preserve it naa. And why are you a Christian - I mean, who will now preserve it? Abi you want to enter heaven while some people are left to preserve traditional worship and sent to hell?

Exactly. The traditional religions are just another part of the community. They don't own the stools.

Marry a Chrisitan whose pastor goes to Ezewanyi to collect power.

The day you all realize that everything comes from one source (God) is the day you all will be emancipated

Been saying bolded forever. People don't understand that everything flows from the Singularity. I think traditionalists are largely to blame for giving themselves a bad name though.
