Please do this,
Close your eyes, imagine you're married with 3kids, working class lady.

What do you think?

Let us face facts pls. That man is wicked but the wife does not have any reason to be that fat. Let us call a spade a spade and stop relying on sentiment. Being fat is something you have to TRY to achieve by overeating.

Before long Rwanda, Tanzania and Botswana will become retirement destinations for Africans in Diaspora. They are quietly making moves. US people that are collecting social security payment monthly will just park somewhere in those countries and be collecting $1600 monthly for life.

Or if you want to flex more opt for Thailand or Cambodia.

Audio probe. Those SARS guys especially the ones in Sienna are so ruthless and they must surely be making returns. They are cold killers and the police ogas know and don't care.

The Discos can deliver if electricity bill is deregulated. Right now the FG sets the price per kilowatt- and like buffoons, set it at a rate they know is below the minimum needed to generate profit.

Some people Sha.

This life is so funny at times. Imagine how this man entered as governor.

Nigeria has no Air Force. They just have people that are walking around and some silly alpha jets.

AreaFada2:
You're absolutely right. You see, Westerners spontaneously buying a ticket and flying to Morocco & Tunisia for a few days. Visa free. Yours truly would never have visited those places if visa hassle was involved.

We can impose stiff penalties for those engaged in illegal and child prostitution.

In fact I am tired. Imagine saying tourism will increase prostitution. When prostitution has already taken over finally. Just slam them with exit fine of $1,000 if caught and raise revenue. Right now Kenya is making serious cash from tourism and we are just looking.

The picture below is what Nigeria's visa policy should be- everybody should get Visa on arrival even if it is only for 30 days. Then if they want to make more money charge people for overstay of the 30 day rule. Let us say $200 for overstay of up to 90 days. They will make more money but where is the minister of tourism? Nowhere to be found.

Dude you are a joker. So who gave south Americans the fair skin feature, Did they come in contact with the Neantherdals?

You don't have strenght to talk because you don't know what you are saying. Do you know anything about pigmentation and how it is affected by the sun?

But I thought south Americans are decendants of the Europeans. After Spain and Portugal took over. Isn't that why they speak the language?

Elbone2:
Lawrence is Dickson's puppet...Being that they are from the same constituency and Dickson clearly wants the Senate seat...Dickson would have promised to make Him the Next Governor after Diri after all na Dickson make am Senator...At this point it would be up to the Senate to declare the seat vacant then the right is up to the ruling Governor to appoint someone that will occupy the said seat til INEC holds a fresh election or after the tenure elapses....So,I see Dickson there at the Senate already and there is nothing the APC or their candidate Capt.Karimo can do about this.

These politicians and calculation sha

fergie001:
The outgoing Gov is his oga, and wants his seat at Senate. A seat he will now get, for sure.

Na game.

Mehn politics is deeper.

TheChameleon:
In my humble opinion, it's harder to be a Deputy Governor to be a Senator.

Yes Deputy Governors are often anonymous, but if your Boss likes you, you can become Governor after him.

And after Deputy / Governor, you can retire to die in the Senate.

It's not always about money. My 2 cents. Pun intended.

Think strategic!

What you are saying is true but a lot of deputy governor just stop being relevant. Look at how Kogi deputy was impeached just like that. That is my own fear. I would rather go to Senate and manage that one and know that my own money is secured than to live knowing that the governor can cancel my cash.

You are right that one should be strategic but abeg with the way I am for now I can't reason strategy to that extent o.

temmytee2309:
Deputy still dey collect money after the end of their tenure with several allowances till they die, while senator allowances and other monies end when tenure ends. except for senate and deputy senate president

Omo this is another angle o! I didn't even remember this one.

Jiovonni:
bros i can't figure out
but i prefer senate oo

Me too. I just don't like anything deputy. The main position can render the deputy useless o.

Why leave Senate to do deputy governor. Is that not downgrade? Pls let seniors weigh in.

boombah:
He sent half of the visa already but I don't see the complete number for verification.
just 5 letters above the bar code and 8 right under the bar code, is there a way around it just before I pay

Pls how long did yours take to come out? And how much was it?

ancestorial:
Please house do you know the dubai visa fees payable at Abuja embassy to put the vignette sticker on the passport? Do I need to book appointment before going there and what documents do I have to take along. I have the evisa, but wants to get the sticker on my passport.

Oga pls I just have some questions for you. The evisa you have is it tourism? And did you go through AGENT? If you did pls what was the process?

I don't know why I just like this GSM guy.

All these are because we still don't have unified identification system. Any terrorist especially those wicked Sudanese can enter Nigeria and claim out passport and be moving with it. Now we are suffering for it. Well UK is still looking for people so let us go there.

Simongm:
These towns are now refers to as Okun Yoruba(Kogi west) and pushed to the middle belt for political reason.
Its really affecting us in so many ways, We will surely join our kith and kin one day...no doubt.

Op provide link please. I want to read more about No. 58(I rep Gbede), the present Ijumu LGA in Kogi state.

Pls include Itsekiri of Delta State.

AreaFada2:
Nigeria too carry Africa matter for head like Galla. Apartheid help to SA and being repaid with Xenophobia should have opened our eyes.

Instead give visa free to Western and other rich nationals with hard currency to spend. Tunisia and Morocco are making a lot of money from it.

Thank God someone else can see it. Even Benin Republic does EVisa for rich countries to boost tourism but these ones are putting together 79 different visa categories.

Bloody fools. Even USA has fewer than 20 visa categories- less than 7 if you remove immigrant visas.

Nigerian should have EVisa for Schengen, Japan, US, UK and China. They should pay flat $100 for 90 days stay but those greedy crooks at Nigerian Embassy abroad can't just allow that because they rely on harassing visa applicant for bribe.

India has Non Resident Indian ID card that can be used to enter the country in lieu of passport/visa. Once you have that one, even if you have only Nigerian citizenship, if you have that ID card, you will get automatic visa on arrival.

This country is just mad. Let me mistakenly get Visa I will run away. Seeing the kind of backward and retrogressive policies that this country implements just kills my spirit. How can Nigeria at this point still be putting such nonsense in place.

I am tired. 79 visa categories on top of what? Short-term Business, Visitor, and long term work permit are all that we need. Simplify the process and let everyone that wants to apply for Visa apply online and just tender passport on arrival to get the visa imprinted and you move on.

Yet these ones are still acting as if the Nigeria is relevant. Nonsense.

passey:
Exceptionally beautiful... Its capital Muscat was the Most beautiful city in the world 2016**

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldFeQ3HWSNk

The people are amazing, friendly, welcoming and tolerant... Very charitable!

Got me an Omani name"All Mukhaini"... Even though I am a proud, black Nigerian dude.

I personally prefer Oman to the UAE... Dubai is too superficial.

Oga how is OMAN visa? Is there job in the area?

AnanseK:
Nairaland is full of ignorant youths and none will know the highly academic large Wanka family of Bauchi where Ado Yakubu Wanka come from.
Ado , a first class anywhere and everywhere was one of the many exceptionally successful children of the late Waziri of Bauchi Alhaji Yakubu Wanka who was himself such a great achiever.
The Senior YAKUBU Wanka held many lofty positions in his lifetime, traditional, academic and political. He was a Director of Many banks and one of the early Directors of the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Intelligent seniors among the noise makers would remember the late Yakubu Wanka’s signature on all Nigerian paper currency denominations as from the year 1958 onwards.

https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/well-read-wanka-clan-of-bauchi.html

If you look carefully at this Nigerian old £5 note, you will see Yakubu Wanka’s signature as Ado’s Farther was one of the CBN Directors right from 1958.

We thank GOD for people like you that still know of history. This family is massively influential in Bauchi state and environs but very coded. So many of them all over in strategic areas of the economy quietly making waves.

sayisayi:
Someone on a discussion of Oyinbo life v naija life was trying to say money in Naija will insulate you from everything.

I state equivocally that peace of mind is priceless.

It is why I visit naija only under duress, otherwise you can have the keys to lugards dystopian nightmare.

Oga you have said it all. This is why once people start to see how Nigeria is today the next thing is to RELOCATE ABROAD.

How can somebody like this big man lose his wife like that. It isn't by money, SYSTEM is also important. Anybody that wants peace of mind knows that Nigeria is no more paying so they just have to run

Jokers. If court should shut down who on this forum will honestly care?

That is just the truth. Sowore so-called Revolution is audio revolution. When Buhari picked Zakzaky that man's followers faced the GOVT but Sowore own is only on Twitter.

The people that are making noise about Sowore are an irrelevant minority that monopolize Twitter and feel relevant. How many of ZAKZAKY people were on Twitter then? Those SHIA faced ARMY life and direct, and they did not run when they were shooting them.

Sowore is not relevant and Buhari knows it. That is why they are still taking him to court here and there. They know his audio followers will only rant on Twitter LOL.

Even NNAMDI KANU people did more than this. Abeg let us face fact. Sowore followers are just joking. The key conveners will cash out and file asylums claim abroad and everyone will calm down.

But has anyone noticed we are not hearing about Zakzaky after he went abroad for TREATMENT? The man must be in Iran right now LOL his Shia have also calmed down

CanadaOrBust:
Nigeria must overdo everything - they just have to include ACCUSED people!

The politicians want to use it as political weapon so they don't send anybody they will just pass it.

So now the new business for 2020 is blackmail. Once somebody doesn't like you they will accuse you and put you on the registry. Since those that have been accused but not convicted are included, it is now easy to completely destroy somebody's career and visa prospects.

False accusations loading. Abeg guys should be wise. Any babe that asks you for money you better pay up before she opens case on your head.

The adoption of electronic voting will be the end of democratic elections in Nigeria. Even in the US they are trying to remove electronic voting system and go back to paper voting because of hacking.

Yet people here are shouting electronic voting. The software can be edited to reflect PDP when you vote APC or reflect APC when you vote PDP depending on who is in power.

Under APC, if they bring electronic voting you will just notice that 2 out of 3 votes are made to go to APC no matter which party you try to vote for. That will bring about one party regime.

candidtalk:
Smart dude. This is indeed the plan. There can be no fuel subsidy anymore when local demand for PMS, kerosine, Gas, diesel is met by local supply 100% and not a single drop of crude leaves our shore to be refined abroad. The Dangote refinery will meet local demand completely with surplus to export also. Gas export alone will grow many times it current volume when the Dangote refinery is operational.

Never underestimate the power of vested interest. Oga, that Dangote refinery will not end petrol subsidy. Mark it. The standard cost for petrol now without subsidy should be around 250/litre. Nigerians will never agree to pay it so what will happen is that government will pay subsidy to key companies to ensure that the price of fuel products does not reach the standard market price.

Dangote will still get paid and will still export to most African Countries with sea access, but the key is that government will pay part of the cost to keep the price low. Right now, Dangote refinery is there to make sure that more of the money we spend on petrol at least stays in Nigeria.

Idea is that the profit he will make by providing our petrol usage will go into his other Nigerian investment so that we keep more capital local.

That fuel subsidy is vital to keeping politically connected people happy. Oil subsidy scam is the simplest way to settle people in Nigeria for now and tneh can't just allow it get burnt.

Akpan107:
The Emir of Bichi(one of the new emirates) just pass through my place 3 hours ago in his full convoy.

Everything is just normal.

We thank God. That Kano Emirate was already constituting nuisance. They can never cancel the new Emirate.
