I swear, the silence is deafening
If na mobad case wey nor add to economy you see them jumping upanda on it

BossGerald:
And everybody is keeping quiet like nothing is happening, even the media.

It wasn't like this during Jonathan's govt but Apc and their media propaganda nearly set this country on fire

Thank you my brother ..u see that attitudinal turnaround very important our people nor be am at all..so daft and claim smart

Quitam:
A breath of fresh air for a so-called oil city which has not seen any tangible development in the past decade. Warri needs not just infrastructural uplift, but attitudinal turnaround. There's no pride in being the roughest guys around. The city should reflect the bountiful riches it holds beneath. Investors have to be lured to establish bases. Power supply must be improved. Security of lives should be paramount. Tribalism should be kept aside, while development is pursued.

I saw this news in punch , I really hope this doesn't end in paper. A good one if finally it came to reality
Warri need that face lift..long overdue

Warri is about to get new look with this current adminstration.


God bless Gov sheriff.
God bless Delta State.

Nigeria movies and religion bodies help propagate this mentality
I don't see it stopping anytime soon sha

MimiSheWrote:
Hello Everyone, first of all I apologize in advance for the long note and also about my English, not actually my first language.

My name is Mimi, I was born in Nigeria... But cos of the nature of my dad's profession i have spent around 75% of my life in different countries outside Nigeria... Mostly in EU.

Well enough said about myself, cos this topic is not about me but about Nigerians... Our general mentality and perception of abroad.

Guys listen up... All that glitters is not really gold. Out there is not entirely what people think it is. And you might think just because I have spent so much time outside Nigeria i do not understand the struggle in Nigeria and therefore not qualified to tell you all this "nonsense"..... I completely get it.. trust me.

But even a random 3 years old kid knows that the country is messed up and nothing to write home about, we all know about the Suffering, depression and "starvation level of poverty" in Nigeria yeah.... That's why everyone is desperatly looking for a way out, no doubt... but trust me, JAPA is not 'always' your ticket out of poverty... Well 'sometimes' it is... but most times it's just your direct ticket to being subjected to racism,more depression,more struggles,several mental disorder,homelessness, modern day slavery and the list goes on and on.

Trust me... when it comes to hustling field, success is much more louder than failure. cos our mind was designed to constantly search for hope. which means you would quickly hear about the lucky 3% that made it big through JAPA, but hardly hear about the remaining unlucky 97% that found themselves in worse possible condition after the same JAPA. There's no money tree out here... there's no diamond river out here...
Is there more opportunities? Well yes, But there are millions of people that already done and still doing whatever you intend to come do over here and yet they are still in the worse condition than you are in right now.

You would literally cry when you see what most of our African brothers and sisters go through around the world in the name of Japa. And as a Nigerian?? Trust me it gets worse.. and your chances gets even much smaller. Cos no one trust Nigerians anymore any where around the world and I believe we all know why.

Sorry but I'm not trying to burst anyone's bubble, kill anyone's vibe or being a negative biitch! Naaaah I'm only trying to be realistic! I'm only trying to tell you something no travel agent would ever tell you and something people abroad hardly tell you, and even when they eventually do tell you...? You don't believe them.. instead you result to asking them questions like "why are they still there if it's that bad"? .....

Well.... You wanna know why most of them are still there? Let me tell you why... there is a psychological reason for that... First They are still in DENIAL. Imagine dreaming your entire life to travel abroad and finally have a good life, you probably invested almost everything or everything you have got to make it happen (your money, your time, your last hope)
But then you finally got there and then meet a reality that is entirely different from your life long dreams and perception of these faraway green lands?
I don't know if you know... but our brain is defensive in nature, it will automatically switch straight to denial mode... Leaving you with atleast enough 'hope and wait for a magic or should i say a miracle' (afterall this is abroad where magic happens?)
This is just one of the reasons why most of these people continue sticking around instead of returning home.

Another reason is that they are worried about what people back home would say or think... Because the people back home also got this general fvcked up mentality and very high expectation of people coming back from Japa (y'all need to stop it! Y'all need to get rid of that mentality, seriously ) cos like I said earlier... there is no bleeping money tree over there! I don't know where Nigerians got that idea from in the first place...
It needs to stop, yall driving the youth nuts with such mentality, it's doing more harm than good. That high expectation/ pressure back home is mostly the reason our people are more likely to result to crime out here (so just stop it! )

I have met alot of other African nationalities abroad... and amazingly they don't share the same mentality we have about Abroad. They treat abroad as just another hustling ground and not a direct ticket to success... Therefore they are more relaxed and less pressured than Nigerians out here.

Moving Abroad is not such a bad idea though, it worked and still works for few lucky ones (including my Family) it would be wrong and biased of me if I fail to mention that..
There are plenty of and more opportunities over out here not doubt...
But what I'm just saying is that... it's not always that easily reached.. as most people automatically believe.
Look... Somehow all these countries are intelligently designed In such a way that it take back almost entirely everything you make out here from you one way or the other... Through tax, through mind blowing bills or random expenses around every corner.

And at the end of the day you realize you are nothing but a modern day slave building someone's country for free... And without freedom.

Most people screaming Japa in Nigeria are far in better living condition and more stable mentally ,more happy than majority of people in the so called abroad without even knowing it. Sometimes Instead of gambling and betting your hard earned million of naira on Japa, it's more advisable to chill out... relax and invest that Millions in Nigeria. I'm just saying... You would probably end up living a life most people over there can only envy and dream of.

Thanks for reading my long note... I hope this helps someone in making a life decision out there. #ItsYourGurlMimi

Lagos is such a dangerous city to live

Ur head nor too correct like dt sha

AsomughaChuks05:
Congratulations to the winners. The judiciary is delivering with usual top-notch integrity. Every petition is unique and outcomes are determined by the argument of counsels to the petitioners and defendants.

NB: Those complaining about Inec should be patient. Mahmood Yakubu's second and final tenure expires before the end of President Tinubu's first tenure and Tinubu will appoint a new chairman then.

Delta state governor sheriff na bad pass.. absolutely nothing

Dude said he will use it for civil servants, the same civil servants he borrowed 20bilion and claim he want to offset their salary after 1month in office

Ok..now go and ask the civil servants if they notice 10naira increase in their salary

Governors are the problem of Nigeria

Not everything is about party and politics, look beyond that, we all want good governance and development

Don't let party politics cloud your judgement sir

What is bad is bad

There are good APC governors
There are good PDP governors
There are also very bad Nd stupid ones in both parties and Delta state seem to find herself benefiting from the bad ones everytime

God will help us sha..one day

Douglad:
Show me the progress level of APC led states and compare it with other parties.

I want to see if there's any statistic that shows major economic improvement when APC is at the helm of affairs.

Even me , this governor and okowa will compete for worst governors..I Dy see am reach hux

tollyboy5:
I'm still looking for the multiple project lool

He mates are building flyovers, bridges, good roads this is what he could boast of, and this is what you people call multiple

I can see this governor have door soldiers here on nairaland, cos no reasonable Delta will post this

He is fast becoming like his Oga okowa, with no gigantic project stride so far, for a state as rich as Delta state ..the KEKE STATE(only means of employment)

Just wearing suit upadan

Obviously this one Dy asaba, the few dt benefited from the corrupt government, if not there is no way u
open your mouth to spill this nonsense
We deltans are fond of this , thats why we keep having bad governors
Now look at sheriff, does it look like you have a governor in the past 100days +, have you felt it?

Even the 5billion palliative FG gave state Oga governor is already giving stories , using Civil servant as excuse , when he didn't even give his own palliative

Mind you the same sheriff borrowed 20billion the first month in office Nd claim it is for this same civil servants salary

Now ask yourself , are you true to yourself?
[quote thor=Asabaproperty1 post=125655125]The poster of this thread seems to have escaped from psychiatric hospital. Can you prove the N170b loan beyond any reasonable doubt or you rely on hear say propaganda by Delta APC? Must everyone show off by making noise in the media? Okowa is a refined gentleman and he is not in your level physically and intellectually.[/quote]

Hero for your village , dis kind of mindset in Delta state is why the state is very backward in development Nd job creation even with her natural resources

VinnyBaba:
OP, leave Okowa to rest.🙂

For stopping the USELESS, Jihadist APC party and that Criminal Thug Omo-Agege from deceiving Deltans,
He is a HERO! 😊💪💪

You know, this question actually cross my mind few days ago

Where is okowa??


It still look like he is the one in power, cos the state is still not progressing because his stooge he put there as governor is not doing anything

Just wearing suit , Nd snapping pictures with with beards, that's all

5 billion Palliative FG gave the state we are already hearing stories , when he the state governor didn't give any Palliative to cushion the effect of the subsidy removal

Hello sir

You obviously missed the point the Writer was trying to make

If u DN reach before or have a friend or siblings doing this private school teaching work you will definitely

FreeStuffsNG:
Don understand 't get me wrong. I am not saying that working in a private school is bad. What I am saying is that as a young person, don't stay too long on the job. Lest you waste your life.

Wrong advice.

If it's good, stay long enough until you master it and can be an expert. Besides, long is ambiguous so I will suggest you stay long enough till you become an expert at it just like every job or professional.

Jumping around from one place or professional to another is not a sign that you are really good, it's a sign that you're not stable in your focus and can be easily taken away. No employer like those kind of prospective employee.

It takes time to build anything formidable in life and that includes career.

There's a lot you learn when you devote time and self discipline to become an expert in what you do. If you don't stay long there's no way you can attain minimum of 10,000 hours to become an expert.

God don save you sir

Average9jaman:
All you said is true, down to the last fullstop. I had to run away from my teaching job, tho I had not gotten another job yet.

They will milk you dry and suck your blood, overwork you, victimise and sack you if you try to speak out

Come and see workload, I was ALWAYS tired and brain fatigued, I used to tell some of my colleagues I was close with that my brain can't even think of anything better for me to do, because those school owners give loads of work which gives you no time to use your brain to think for yourself.

The owner had a common saying that - to get the best juice from an orange, one has to squeeze the orange to get the sweet juice.

After considering this saying I had to run for my life, because I thought to myself - after squeezing and sucking an orange, what do you do after all the juice is out

I left quickly without having getting another opening first

Revolution2022:
What is the duty of the NLC kwa?

Those idiot NLC na to strike Nd concern themselves with only fuel hike nothing more


The Nigeria labor market is a mess, especially the private sector

The one we endure Bihari own where e end last last??

That clueless man from duara shut borders Nd make rice expensive till tomorrow


Now we stil have foreign rice still in circulation selling at higher price
Local rice also selling at higher price

If you know how many pharmaceutical companies will go out of business in Nigerian and how much funding these govt officials will cease to receive from.both national band international organisations you will understand why Dy will either sabotage this or take a back seat

Those defending saying the vaccine is not ready have no idea how research procedures work

Just thinking out loud

Sometimes I feel or assume must of this general didn't or never posses combat experience in the field before attaining such position in Nigeria

Just connections and military courses abroad

This make them lack ideas of combat when faced in real life scenerio thereby hindering any progree in both the navy, airforce


Before bolo haram , Nigeria military were practically sleeping, some will just go to ECOMOG mission come back and retire, d rest will be here intimidating civilians.
When boko haram came u cud see how disorganized Dy were ,now u wonder if it was external attack from our neighboring countries ..what would have happened??

Gradually Dy are sitting up tho, but the generals need to be promoted on basis of combat roles

Well , this dude may lose his job if this pics get the attention of management
There are certain jobs you do and you are not authorized to release confidential photos to the public without the permission of the company
Manufacturing and production companies adhere to this rules and I blive it ws stated in his appointment letter only if he took time to read and understood it

That being said ..I tik common sense is even enough not to post pics like this in public space ..when u are not management

Can u just shut up sir!

Must everytin be about region to you?
This man f*up and you and I know it, why this nonsense region nonsense tin again

Ezeama400:
Bola is a bloody coward !!!

You are arresting a man that took an instruction from his Boss, if Emefle was acting against the directives of the presidency, they would have stopped him

Godwin didn't act on his own.. Arrest Buhari ist..

Tinubu has started creating enemies across Nigeria starting from SS region..

South south leaders will respond at the proper time ...

Let the drug lord flex muscle small while it lasts..
His unfortunate rodents should not fly to my mention like house flies

If u see the video as should have you would've notice ithe Revd father ask the congregation and someone gave that 10million figure , he now use that figure to buttress his point on the sermon he was making

Where he got it wrong was continuously using the name mercy chinwo that was defamation of character and he can be sued, he could HV use "gospel artist"instead

Why talked down on someone that way.

Can we now ask the Revd father why the Catholic church pay him, provide him accomodation, feed him, sometimes give dem cars?

Since he is doing the work of God as he want us to blive why didn't he do it free of charge , preach and go home , work Nd feed himself?

Since all the churches pay pastors , why can't they pay the other church workers

Churches should start paying ushers
Churches should start paying choir
Churches should start paying cleaners
Instrumentalist already won that salary battle, ask any instrumentalists in the 90s it was not an easy battle , dey were blackmail with the Bible, told Dy will go to hell etc

They are not paying tax , so imagine the amount of employment Dy will create will this employment in the churches nationwide


You can't expect someone to spend 2-3days in ur establishment without any form of payment nor stipend


The properity mandate of come to stay, the church of God is rich and will continue to be rich..

Reading comments ..I just weep for Nigeria

Same people that want a fair society where justice is served and the law to apply to the rich Nd mighty, now being sentimental and emotional calling this boy evil and Wicked..

Smh...forget we never ready for this country

No census

True

Until Nigeria practice true FEDERALISM, these governors will continue to exploit the loophole and the Blame will continue to rest on the FG

Restructure is the answer..Let state be hold accountable for their failures

The masses will continue to look and blame the FG, because the state governors act like they are always controlled by the FG..but for money matter to steal dem be bosses

Idiotic linus

SUGGESTIONS /RECOMMENDATIONS WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED

mikepitt709@gmail.com

Well said,

Forget what they tell u on social media about gender equality and be equal with a woman
A woman naturally like to be nominated should be dominated.

By domination I don't mean it in an offensive manner, don't get me wrong o

I mean education, intelligence, finance, career, age

If a woman have upper hand in all you're doom


The card should be in your favor always, that way she respect you

omale88:
When an older lady begins to treat you like a junior it means she realise you are not mature enough for her,iv dated older ladies all my life and none ever treated me with disdain because they have no reason to,why should they? Or what have their age done for them? Because I date their souls not their body.doing so requires extreme intelligence.A woman at average have seen more men in her life ten times more than a man would in his life,so then imagine you dating a woman who is older than you in this regard? besides the fact that she finds you attractive she wants you to see in her those countless number of men who have gone through her to beat the odds and not just end like one of them.also if you are mostly dependent on her for everything then you chosen your position in the relationship,you don't ask a woman to do you favors you let her ask to do it from the efforts she see you making if she is capable. A relationship is between a dominant and submissive,dont blame a woman for taking the dominant side when you already submitted to her.

Well I don't doubt you o
When i used to work in one of those company, back then, that 30k was our basic salary- by basic I mean if you just wake-up and go to the office daily nd sit down without doing anything at all, you will still be paid that basic.. Not joking

But if u manage to work small your minimum should be 50k+, 70-80k then if you're among top 10-top 20, then you should e taking home 120-150k..

Well she may be right it all depends on the loan company, there are so many of them right now, but some are really still paying well and you can work remotely and at the office

Working remotely start from covid-19 locked down

I know a frd (graduate ) working there that used this to open a big photography studio and bought all d equipment.. It was a gradual process but he was able to achieve it, many of them

mhiztaNexy:
100k, lmao. An ex staff from one of the loan app companies was on twitter sometimes ago. She complained about how rude and bad they treat their staffs because of a take home of 30k.

Ok, lemme let you in a little secret
The companies frown totally on defamation , threats, use of documents to threaten customers, I know a lot of my colleagues back then that were sack for that when they were caught

But here is the thing, every worker is assign a particular number of customers weekly to recover loans from and everyone is in competition to lead.
The higher money you recover from debtors the higher your bonuses and take home salary that month.. (100k-150k) This is not adding the basic salary for that month

So you see, it's a dog race, everyone want to take home a big cut, so they do this without the knowledge of the company most times


About contacting relatives, that was part of the agreement customers sign and gave consent to. They just didn't read the terms of agreement . So company can contact relative and inform of unpaid loan after attempt to get debtors to pay

mhiztaNexy:
Gaining access, yeah, defamation no. The bastards even sell contacts to other companies, reason why you'll receive loan offers from different numbers.
