Arrewa:
Buhari is still better than Jonathan by far!

I'm not a fan of buhari and still not his hater.

He has not perform up to my expectations but I must acknowledge his progress.

Bokoharam is no longer powerful as it used to be.

I still can remember Back then when no single northern state is safe including kano and Abuja bombs here and there.

Now they have been limited to only Borno villages.

Your hatred for Buhari has clouded your sense of judgment.

You are just too desperate to label him a failure and to insult him.

BUHARI is 1000 times better than Jonathan your Hero.

Be sincere to yourself for once.

Boko Haram has been limited to Borno villages according to you, yet tens of people are being killed every month in Zamfara, Sokoto, Kaduna apart from the North East and North Central. Bandits are running rampage all over the North yet you think it is any different from Boko Haram attacks.

Do I also need to remind you of how Northern Elders including this same Buhari kept accusing Jonathan of depopulating the North because he was killing BH? Your beloved Buhari clearly said, "an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the North".

How many Southerners especially minority ones will have the mind to go against the North with the way Nigeria is presently structured? Isn't that like signing your death warrant? Even a southern president will ultimately become an ordinary citizen after his tenure. What will become of his safety by then after "attacking the North" by killing loads of Boko Haram?

OPPPS:
At this rate, Obaseki wife might decamp to Apc

Read and digest before saying rubbish. None of these people decamped. They are all APC members and were with Obaseki in APC till he decamped to PDP. They simply refused to decamp with him.

Obaseki should simply work with PDP structure and whatever support he carried over from APC. That should be enough for him. It shouldn't be an easy ride for him, as APC is formidable in Edo State, but it is a battle he can win.

LordNicvuitton:
Why would you think that it's a story? Look my profile, I've been on Nairaland since 2010. Go through my previous posts. This is why i suggested that only matured minds should rub minds with me.

She was in 200L in 2017 and in 2020, she is waiting to start 400L. I hear you.

martineverest:
but Atiku came from.cameroun...the nigerien naturalised na

It's not true. Atiku came from a part of the defunct Northern Cameroon that was integrated into Adamawa State. His original home town is part of Nigerian territory. This man's home town is in Niger Republic.
You cannot obtain Nigerian citizenship by naturalization.

Nickymichy:
Is he born in Nigeria?... If yes I don't think there is any issue here...I can never ever support this administration but if a Nigerian born in another country can hold key position in that same country I see no issue here if this guy was born in Nigeria

But according to Nigerian constitution, being born in Nigeria alone doesn't make you Nigerian. At least one of your parents must be Nigerian.

Officialgarri:
You have problem. Wallahi Better do something meaningful in life so they could at least name a beer parlor after you.

I'm glad my dad's name is there. Congratulations Prof. Wole Soyinka. You will forever live in my heart

He doesn't have a problem. He is making sense.

This move is totally unnecessary. It only goes to show how poorly developed Nigerian Railway network is. The UK for example has well over 2000 train stations. Imagine naming these after different individuals.

Train stations are not like Airports which are normally not too many even in big and rich countries. It's easy for people to remember the names assigned to them. Train stations on the other hand are normally too many, and should retain the names of the towns or cities they are in. Even if you name them after individuals, I can bet you that they will be known more by the names of their locations.

PIMPAR:
Keep quiet. He was elected a senator on the platform of ACN, which Tinubu singlehandedly founded. Dem no dey trust una.

Ngige didn't win because of ACN or Tinubu. He won because of his work as Governor between 2003 and 2006. People had much regard for him then cos he was what Mbadinuju couldn't be. He actually won because of his work as a PDP governor. As soon as his affiliation with the other side became obvious, that was the end of his political victory in Anambra.

CheedyJ:
If Leicester wins & Chelsea loses, United & Leicester qualifies but I doubt Chelsea would lose sha

Man U won't let Leicester win cos they won't know if Chelsea will equally win

KunleyY19:
Have you forgotten wolves are fighting Tottenham for Europa league...

It shouldn't be too hard to get a draw at Stamford Bridge.

DownChelsea:
by losing to wolves?

Yes. Once Man U beats Leicester, Chelsea will qualify for UCL.

FahBuLous:
Very true.. Buh the question is "Will man utd lose??"

If Man U wins, Chelsea will still finish top 4. If Man U and Chelsea draw, Chelsea will still make it.

justus7:
Not true..
If Leicester beat Man utd and chelsea draw against Wolves,Chelsea will go to Europa as they will be on the same point with Utd with less goal difference..

What are you saying? Chelsea and Man U are already on same point (63) but Man U is above cos of goal difference. If Chelsea draws with Wolves and Man U loses to Leicester, that will be 64 points for Chelsea and 63 for Man U.

seunny4lif:
A Chelsea draw against Wolves and Leicester win against Man Utd will send Chelsea to Europa

Nah, it will send Man U to Europa.
Chelsea needs to lose to Wolves and Leicester draws with or beats Man U for Chelsea to finish 5th. Once Chelsea draws with Wolves, they will finish top 4.

GreaterFuture1:
Ehen is he not saying the Same thing!
Can't you see you are butressing his point?

Not really. He's saying that it would take 80 years to spend 1bn Naira. If it indeed does take many years to spend 1bn, stealing by politicians will be much less.
However, ₦1bn may not even be enough to buy a choice property in London, likewise in many other big cities of the world. That is the reason why the person who steals only ₦1bn will feel like he hasn't even started.

Kriss216:
But, I'm not comparing the two, besides, Is there any difference between the system of government of the two countries?

Do you actually mean that question in bold? No matter how bad Nigeria is, at least there is some level of freedom. People abuse Nigerian presidents all over the internet and nothing happens. Go and try that in Saudi.

Godlovesyou28:
I don't know what the story is; and I clearly do not care how I came... Am here now, and need to know who my mother is.
But for the record, the relative told me that my father paid my real mother's dowry when he Briefly separated from my step mum but returned it afterward after sending her out to bring my step mum back. I do not care what the history is; I just want to know my real mum.

Sorry to hear about your struggles.
Do you know your village or home town? Do you know a few neighbours there or one or two old people from there? They will likely know about your mum, since you said you dad paid dowry for her. Can you locate any of them and ask them or can you send someone to your village to investigate for you?

heendrix:
It's simple he should get off this servitude mentality. Even if ur broke, having peace within you would ease virtually most things

So if he has to leave for the village, have his personal peace and pick himself up then I think that would be the best thing to do rn

That servitude thing is how people like Innoson, Coscharis, and a host of other prominent and successful Igbo businessmen started out.

Simplyleo:
[s]But is this truly in Anambra?

Because the Anambra people we know are very rich. I understand everybody in Anambra owns at least 2 mansions.

This is in addition to at least 4 to 5 duplexes in Lagos owned by each which they give out to afonjas for rentage.

So, it is obvious any Anambra man cannot kill because of even 100m, impossible. [/s]

Again, you're disgracing yourself with your bigotry and stupidity.

Haruna said, “On the 17/7/2020 at about 11:45am, police operatives attached to the Command Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) arrested one Friday Asuquo ‘m’ aged 27 years of Oron but resides at Enu-Orji village, Amawbia in Anambra State.

Friday ASUQUO the shooter is from ORON. Oron is in Akwa Ibom State.

Simplyleo:
B4 opening this thread, I was 98 percent sure of the perpetrators and I wasn't disappointed.

Bigot! Did you see the paragraph below in the article?

Upon interrogation, Moses a 27-year-old native of Auchi, said his friend’s ghost had been hunting him since the day he killed him.

flyingpig:
OP he is an Igbo but raised by Yoruba parents who adopted him.
Give credence to the Yoruba parents who imbibed western knowledge from Awo's free education legacy onto him.

Which is why he knows how to speak Yoruba.
Oya, clap for yourself.

abduljabbar4:
This is the way forward. Sit back and build the nation. While our almajiri region is making waves and trying to build a good reputation for the country , some are organizing heists in Dubai, scamming people and selling drugs in other countries. Honesty, HUMILITY and hardwork is the key to success, and I can boldly claim that it is in the arewa blood.

Building a good reputation with Boko Haram, Fulani herdsmen and bandits? Building reputation with millions of Almajiri children littered all over the northern states? Building reputation by making Nigeria the poverty capital of the world?
Which kind of reputation are you really building?

gimakon:
For me, i suggested if he was going to leave with that $120,000 , he should try to see if he can get at least one remote job first
So if he has
Remote Job + $120,000 then he is good to go. he wont need to worry much...

Cos me, even if na 1m naira i hold, and then I have remote Job, i no stay nigeria o.

What do you think?

I think you're the person

*Food For Thought*

*1,590,173 sat for WAEC in 2019. In 2020, it will probably be something around that figure.*

*These boys and girls will not write WAEC this year (2020) because of COVID.*

*Edo State has 2,210,534 registered voters, while Ondo State has 1,822,346. Combined, both States have 4,032,880 Registered Voters.*

*Elections will hold in both States this same year (2020) in spite of COVID.*

*Examination arrangements can be better optimized to enforce safety necessities; it will take ten times the effort to keep a polling unit orderly and safe.*

*A country's future can be deduced from how its leaders set priorities.*

Two things to note:

1. There is no rule which states that all registered voters must participate in elections. Even if 1000 people participate in both states and other shy away because of COVID and other reasons, results will be declared.

2. Elections last over just a few hours. Overall contact time will be far less compared to SSCE exams that last over 3-4 weeks. Also remember that some students will need to return to live in their school dormitories during that time. What will happen if they start falling ill due to COVID while the exams are ongoing?

ODJ124:
U mean Wikipedia is wrong....?
Well if it's I or L it's OK....

It seems like you enjoy arguing blindly.
I've shown you Iara's Facebook and Instagram pages, and I also showed you where 3 national dailies wrote her name as Iara, yet you're talking about Wikipedia. Has Wiki ever been a reliable source of information?

ODJ124:
u need to do urs judiciously...

By the way, these are different media agencies spelling her name as Iara

ODJ124:
u need to do urs judiciously...

See this guy! I showed you a screenshot of her Instagram account which she created herself and wrote her name by herself, and you are here showing me something from Wikipedia or a blog where someone like you wrote her name as Lara. Are you for real?
This is her Facebook account. What can you see? Iara or Lara? So she doesn't know how to spell her name?
Please use your brain, alright?

ODJ124:
Hmm.. ..It's L

Shebi you won't do your research before talking.

ODJ124:
It doesn't matter.....
Lara is an epitome of beauty.... From the Yoruba side of Cape Verde

Her name is IARA not LARA.
