Igbos and Yorubas of then loved each other but reverse is the case now. But where did the hatred come from?

Here are the problems:
1. Igbos believe that Pa Awolowo is their arch enemey because he taught Gowon how to stop the Igbos and make them surrender during the Biafra war, which is a wrong belief.
2. Igbos always have inferiority complex. They always see themselves as a lesser citizen and less priviledged people of Nigeria, which is not true.
3. Igbos always play the victim's card. The see themselves as victims of any circumstance in Nigeria.
4. Igbos feel they are the most unloved and yet productive people in Nigeria. They feel that the country under values them and does not appreciate their industriousness. They are indeed very productive and highly enterprising.
The problems with the Yorubas are
1. Yorubas are too patient and kind and they allow other people to take advantage of their patjence and kindness.
2. Yorubas believe that their priority is to have peace irrespective of who the leader is or who has the power or who is in control.
3. Yorubas don't like to struggle or agitate or fight for what they are entitled to. They are too shy to make demands.
4. Yorubas are loving and honest people (there are exceptional cases), their honesty and love sometimes make them to be cheated.
These often cause friction. My opinion pls.

Anderson Ezeibe, .
Future president of IMO state
He understands politics

The same way Adams Oshiomole understood politics when he was in Labour Union until he became Edo State Governor and joined politicians in the looting spree.

Your so called husband is nothing but a male harlot and prostitute. He only needs one little opportunity and viola, he makes it happen. For your sanity sake, if you know you can't tolerate a cheating husband, pls separate from him. Let him know you are done with his promiscuity. Otherwise, when he is infested with STD he will soon transmit it to you.

So sad, but the truth.
Even the Npower beneficiaries that were defending this present government up and down are now quiet.
Thank God everybody is feeling the heat of this administration now, irrespective of tribe, religion and political party.

Very correct. A good example of such peanut benefiary is the iconically gullible , dude has finally lost his voice and has changed moniker due to shame. The 30k Npower money has become worthless and useless to them due to inflation. They sold their soul for 30k because of hunger and now they have realized their foolishness when it it already late.

Why do you women always think you are doing your husband a favour by having sex with him??

Oyindamolah:
I resigned from my job 8 months ago (July). I worked with this firm for one full year. It was a rollercoaster ride. I used to be very proactive and full of energy, going all out to achieve things no matter what was at stake.

When I took up this job last year, I was hoping to build a career and carve a niche for myself... But I was wrong. Before I resumed, a lot of people had resigned. Even on the day I resumed, I met just one staff on ground (he was trying to buy time before he eventually quits). So we were just two (2) in the office. It felt awkward because the environment wasn't challenging and competitive enough for me, but I had to do what was expected of me. Till the day I resigned, I was not found wanting in any aspect.. But I guess that was where everything went wrong. I was taken advantage of, used and manipulated.
My boss was a chronic micromanager and very insecure.

Despite all these, I tried to allay his fears and made sure I did my best to assure him nothing would ever go wrong. He abuses us verbally with words I'm so ashamed to type here. When the other guy eventually resigned, I was left all alone with him. I took up his responsibilities coupled with mine. I was overworking myself every single day of the week. I became a shadow of myself and always felt sick whenever I get up from bed every morning. I was doing this for 4months till we were able to get a replacement for the guy. And believe you me, we were recruiting every month afterwards till I left because they were always resigning or should I say disappearing after the end of every month. So we practically had a new staff who would work for a month and disappear. And the reason was not far fetched, My Boss. He believes all job seekers are hungry and would take anything just for the cash (stipends). You can imagine a graduate bring sent on so many ridiculous domestic errands.

Though I'm not oblivious of the fact that it's not easy to set up a business here in Nigeria or even to pay salaries. I know what it takes, but that doesn't mean you should now use people like slaves.

As a service provider, you should know how to handle your clients, but this man would talk to them anyhow, insult them and then expect me to fix the mess or else I won't get paid. And because I was ready to do anything just for the progress of the company, he believed I had no choice. But I'm the kind of person that hates being idle. Hence, the reason for not seeing it as a big deal. Then came a time, I was at my wits end, couldn't go on anymore. I lost all motivation and up till now.

One of the most painful thing I heard after I left was when someone from the office called to tell me what happened that day. Sometimes, I usually use my money to quickly do some little office stuffs if the man is not around. So there were lapses after I left, he now asked what was really going on. So the guy on ground told him what I usually did.. And his response , "if I knew I had money, why did I come to work then?" Imagine. I felt so disappointed!

This is the same man that would refund you if you tell him you spent your money for the company, then go ahead to deduct it from your salary at the end of the month after looking for excuses or an offence you didn't commit.

Now, most people here in Lagos go through same or worse ordeal every single day. Leave home early, get abused at work, get home late. Looking rough and tired all for a pay that won't last up to 2weeks. I pity the married folks more, they can't resign/quit because they've got bills to pay, responsibilities (wife and kids), some even have girlfriends, they're stuck. I also have responsibilities and bills though, but thank God I'm still single.

This is the time to go all out and take chances, take risks and it will definitely pay off in the end. I've been able to focus more since I resigned, sleep well, eat well, learning some digital skills to boost my CV and running a little business of mine. Though it's not been easy, but I know I'm on the right path.

One man business na Slavery business in Nigeria. Better be a shoe cobbler than slave for a man and receive abuse everyday just for penny.

Nigerians always turn to one whenever other Africa countries want to mess up with them

Nigerians prefer to fight themselves rather than allow another country citizen especially african fight them.

If you ask some mad Putin followers on nairaland to choose where to relocate btw America or Russia.. 99.999% will not think twice before they choose America.

That is why they are mad, their minds think one thing, their mouths say another thing.

Mr. Dele Gbolade of Crested Consult Ltd, Lagos. What a wonderful man! He motivates his staff to work, he gist with them like team mate, he never used harsh words on anybody. Even though the company had a small beginning at that time, he would give us Christmas rice and some other bonuses every December, something even Government offices cannot afford. God bless you and family Brother Dele and prosper all you do, amen.

I hope there will be no cries when the Russia Military retaliate

Do you know the meaning of retaliation? Russia started the war by invading Ukraine and bombing buildings with the peolple in them and Ukraine rose up to defend itself. Now who is retaliating?

PMS was not N65 in 2014, it was N97, soon to be reduced to N87. It was N65 last in 2012 January, when it was raised to N140, and then cut to N97 after anti-subsidy removal protests that year.

Thank you. Modified.

I have all the necessary documents. But the problem, the community boys will remove it. They almost fight me the other day I went there. They want to take half of the land and leave the other half for me.

Then you need to involve a Legal Practitioner and take legal action.

Do you have all necessary and relevant documents such as Contract of Sale, Reciept of purchase with the signature of all members of family concerned, Deed of Assignment, Approved site plan/Layout and the most important Certificate of Occupancy to prove that the land belongs to you? If yes, just do a sign post or two with the inscription: THIS LAND BELONGS TO ........... TRESPASSERS WILL BE PROSECUTED. Erect the sign posts on the land. Anyone that trespasses should be sued to court.

What a mumu fancy dog. Even a local dog would not allow itself to be stolen so cheaply. Bravo to the policemen.

Nice laptop. I already have a laptop and I don't intend to keep two, can I swap with this and add some money?

See yourself as a special human. You dont have to hate yourself and you dont need to please everyone. Love yourself first, accept who you are. The most important thing is that do all what you can to improve and develop yourself intellectually and financially. Soon everyone will wish to be your friend.

You look fit enough to intimidate a fellow man or attact a pretty lady.

He always becomes a saddist at end of each month, he will make sure his staff salary are not complete by finding a fault to deduct salary, he gets annoyed by every little thing and even quarrel with contractors because he is never happy to pay them. Finally, he felt humiliated by the manner I left the shop he called a company and framed me up for theft.

Hello great Nairalanders....
My kia Rio 2014 delays in accelerating. When the accelerator is engaged, it delays for like one to two minutes before picking up. And when it picks up, it drives smoothly. It consumes more fuel than usual as well. I used 50 litres of petrol from ikeja to akure which is very very abnormal. Pls i need help from the experienced Nairalanders. Thank you all.

Take your car to a technician for scanning, the result of the diagnosis will show the technician what is wrong and he will know how to solve it.

People have good things to say about Senegal, Cote D'Ivoire, Kenya, Ghana, and South Africa.

Senegal and Cote D'Ivoire are francophone countries while Ghana and South Africa are xenophobic countries, only Kenya seems fair enough in your options.

Nigeria would have been among the 20 richest but she is ruled by the gender that betrayed our Lord Jesus Christ.

If the gender that gave Adam the forbidden fruit to eat had not done so, the world would have been a nice place.

FalseProphet1:
Planes calculate the distance they're to cover per miles and estimate the total liters of fuel that would cover it.

Why can't the railway management adopt the same strategy?

Lagos to ibadan shouldn't be more than 350 kilometers, then they'll estimate the quantity of fuel in liters that can cover 350 kilometers and discharge it into the train's tank.

But no, one manager somewhere will pocket the money and buy half the quantity hoping for a miracle to happen that would take the train to it's destination, thereby risking the passengers life when it gets stocked in a remote bush as a result of an empty tank.

I don't see Nigeria surviving as a country come 2023.


This I have seen.

Lagos to Ibadan is around 120km.
