People stopped eating akara after the 70s and 80s? You people are funny.

I think what you should do is ask them to ALSO talk about technology. Ask what the ICT and Power ministers are doing, so that people like you who don't want to dry akara can also have something. But let those who want to dry akara have their own, biko. Government is for nobody. It is for everybody.

So of all start ups, it's kulikuli and akara your first lady can easily think about? That's why your government is treating all of you like almajiris. If it was a Northern governor that mention akara and kulikuli business, you people will be all over the space calling him out.

BATified2023:
it's obvious u don't have data to watch that video

Obi said he gave them 10k each, drop your number for 2gig make I help your life

I use my data for better things, not for such things. Use that 2gig to browse how you can better your life.

BATified2023:
so obi said 10k is enough and u hailed him but the first lady said 50k upward n u are condemning her

That's y people don't take u lots serious, u are freaking hypocrites

Obi is not your president and he is not the one collecting your tax.
In 2026 when countries are talking about technological developments? She can't even say they would provide electricity to support small scale businesses. Your first lady is talking like we are in the 1970s or 80s and you people are praising her.
FYI, I'm not an Obi supporter.

You are actually right anyway. She may be talking to their data boys and foot soldiers.

Peller own no worse na, na that carter own worse pass

Where did you put the famous olodo called "Portable" ?

All the banks in Nigeria are thieves. It is the careless ones among them that are easily noticed.

Lenovo, especially with double cell batteries.

Adexvivacity:
What is the price?

Nairaland prices na for billionaire's because everybody dey form rich here. I buy my stuffs on Facebook market place or Jiji.

Helinuse:
They don't.
No one is authorized to.
The real JTF holds local weapons.


You just want to defend trash.
But you mustn't.
You can just shut up!


The last time civilian JTFs got hold of Boko Haram's weapons,
They turned into the terrorist group known as Lakurawa.

You have time to respond to that moomoo?

Not often. Thanks for reminding me.

The account should be investigated.

JuanDeDios:
Hmm

I guess you are a female?

Ok. Good luck to them in their search. Having your mental health intact is better than having a fat salary while going crazy.

JuanDeDios:
What are they saying?

Someone in the video called them "dan fashi" meaning bandit in hausa language.

AcadaWriter0:
Elrufai is clearly a victim of this relentless, subtle attack. It’s all about maintaining his power and influence.

Tapping someone else phone conversation without the person's consent is a crime if you don't know, even your spouse can have a case against you for such. How much more tapping the phone call of a country's National Security Adviser in a country where insecurity is prevalent. El-Rufai's sin is enormous.

JuanDeDios:
Lol: I wrote "explosion" instead of explanation.

Now, applying sense. Imagine you're on the road. In a place where very bad guys regularly drive around and kill and dismember people security agents. You hear the sound of many bikes. Your instinct doesn't tell you to cake cover, so you stand by the road and wait. Then they come into view at a distance - and you realise it's bandits. So you don't run, hoping they haven't seen you? You wait by the road and wave to these guys, the same ones who have killed policemen for fun. Ok. Applying common sense.

Oga, don't get worked up. Just look for a hausa man to tell you what the policemen are saying in the video.

JuanDeDios:
The Force's explosion is believable. If those were bandits, I think the policemen would have run and hid.

Try and apply sense. The policemen were outnumbered there is nothing they could do. If they run or resist, the bandits will open fire on them and kille them. So the policemen had to apply Survival Skill 101 by waving at the bandits in submission and friendly manner not to provoke them.

tanigororo:
Nigeria Online Media, when I first saw the video, I want to ask how they knew those people were Bandit.

I don't know if being an Hausa man now means you are automatically a Bandit.

You'd better zoom the video and watch carefully this time. So vigilantes and hunters now wear military camouflage and carry AK-47?
The government told news media to stop calling Boko Haram terrorists and call them bandits instead, they stopped. Now they are saying don't call them bandits, call them vigilantes.

Image123:
The person who doesn't want to believe will not believe.

Wow, so vigilantes are now allowed to wear military camouflage and brandish AK-47 assault rifles? That's fantastic.

Some of their colleagues are on Nairaland defending these students and saying nothing will happen. Look at the society we find ourselves.

He should be thoroughly investigated to name everyone involved who gave him the job and his target before he was caught. After this, he should be summarily executed so that we can have one less criminal to worry about.

Can't EFCC specifically state the "uunlawful" activities? We all know that the activities will involve kidnapping and ransom taking. Anyway, I'm sure FG cum EFCC is just playing to the gallery because of the statement issued by the US. They will soon free this man and you will not hear pim again.

Well, I will advise that these are also very important to check:
1. Rev engine to check for smoke and look at tail pipe for soothe, also look out for oil leak around engine top.
2. Check underneath area and chassis for rust.
3. Check radiator fan whether it's been bypassed to run directly.
4. Check transmission responses on every gear.
5. Check suspension and balance.

I hope this man has not received the El-Rufai's treatment. Nominated by the President and still discreetly communicated to the Senate not to be passed.

APC progress, Tinubu is working

ALABACONNECT:
Not most, All. It is simple. It is all in their operating system. Just as IPhone used iOS and your Samsung/Tecno uses Android OS. That applies to TV. For Samsung, There are a while lot of reasons why Samsung TV sets will never be an android OS. One being that Samsung wants full control of their devices without involving a 3rd party.

Wow, thanks for this educative response. But I think that will restrict Samsung buyers' from downloading useful apps found on Google Play store.

ALABACONNECT:
Good afternoon Nairalanders

Good evening sir,
Just want to ask, why are most Samsung TV usually smart, not android?

kppo:
A) I have faith because I am a believer
or
B) I am a believer because I have faith

The two statements are correct, it depends on what you mean.

nairalanda1:
So recently, Peter Obi made a comment that he was going to improve our power supply by 10000mw, which would take us up to 32000 mw...which should be enough for us to get light 24/7 (subject to the Siemens project working)...and the response was tinubu supporters making fun of Obi as a man without ideas, while Obi supporters praised their man as being wisdom incarnante.

Except that Obi did not tell us how he plans to do it.

Which essentially begs the question, how do we vote for a guy who promises us something, but does not tell us how to do it.

Which leads me back to Tinubu. IN 2023, tinubu said...if you vote me and I do not give you constant power supply, vote me out in 2027.

Naturally tinubu supporters were praising their man as being a tough minded leader, etc, etc....while Obi people are now calling in the receipts. Man has not done as promised so he should be kicked out.


Which leads me to my point.

Tinubu and obi never/have not told Nigerians how they intend to improve power supply.


The truth of the matter is, we have a plan, laid out by the experts, about power supply. A decent , strong plan....cost reflective tarrifs, ending power theft, and rolling out metering.

But neither tinubu nor obi, nor even atiku or any potential candidate would mention that because it does not win votes. (Sowore would probably announce a plan to give 24 hour light a day at N1 per kwh).


Nigerians , regardless of political party, like hearing populist language. If a leader came into office and started doing the things the experts have said we should do, he would be voted out. Or chased out. You will see the Fulani herdsmen marching with the Igbo farmer, the Yoruba trader marching with his Hausa counterpart, and there would be riots.


And the leader would be voted out.

That is why whoever takes office, won't be allowed to improve power because Nigerians think that electricity should be free of charge.

When in reality, it is not possible.

Electricity costs money. If you won;t pay for it in cost reflective tarrif, you will pay for it in generator and inverter monies. That is what Band A taught us.

And on that Band A, the idea of tinubu was not original. India has a similar system, present for decades, that commercial and industrial properties would pay a cost reflective tarrif and the profits would be used to pay for subsidising the poor farmers and rural people

And after doing that, has power supply in India improved? (No.).

Infact India is planning to make everyone pay cost reflective tarrfs in five years time.


SO, if it didn't work in India, how e go work in NIgeria?

The only way we can get free power is to take massive loans totalling nearly 2/3rd of our budgets for the next ten or more years...and while it may give us enough light, it would also put us in heavy debt for it.


In 2025, Prof Barth Nnaji, who is definetly not a Tinubu supporter put it well



SAUCE : LEADERSHIP NEWSPAPER


I have been saying the above for years, but people here abuse me, so I may as well quote the actual expert, who is a qualified engineer, a former ministar of power, and an owner of a GENCO.

And he is not the first or the last to state that this needs to be done. PwC have said it, several experts have been saying it, a BBC report said it, and so forth.

Yet, Nigerians and their candidates choose to believe the fiction of corruption or some evil Western zionist overmind does not want to give us light.

It is easier to believe conspiracy theory fiction

Like NIgerians, like candidates.


Good afternoon.

I expcet to be abused and to be told about other countries that somehow magically give free power(the macs won't add that those countries pay for it with heavy taxes, or heavy debt).

Nigerians are not asking for 24/7 power supply again, not even free health or education and nobody is worried about bad roads anymore. Nigerians are now asking that government should allow them live, and not be killed by terrorists. Nigeria is slowly moving from backwardness into oblivion.
