Look after yourself and look after others next.
Don't prioritize friends over yourself. You can prioritize friendship once a while if he or she is worth it at times.

Werey selling false hope

Lies lies lies

Same man they said they have relieved him of his duties but he didn't leave office in reality and he kept carrying out his criminal activities.

If truly he was locked up with them, those people there are also human and criminals like him he should cope no special treatment for drug barons. But I doubt this headline with all my chest. An Nigeria we dey, he might even be at home now sef.

A lot of people are saying making money online here and there but if you must tell yourself the truth, no easy way of making money and no short cut. I just google about how much people can make on tik tok and the following is the what I saw online :
As for the TikTok Creator Fund, you can earn between 2 and 4 cents for every 1,000 views. This means you might expect $20 to $40 after reaching a million views.
Now with what google is saying it means one can only make only 20 to 40 dollar per 1million views. So ask yourself how many of these young girls have millions of viewers/followers online before they can even earn $40 per million. I am not saying that it is not possible that one can make hundreds of million views online to earn huge money but how many people out there especially these so called young girls can create an amazing contents online to be able to earn the huge money. The truth we fail to say today will hunt our children tomorrow. Let's start healing our land now.

online hook up is also online na where they can make 30k, 40k upward per night

Hello Nairalanders!

Let me drop this important message.

Your 17 year old daughter is using iPhone 12 and your salary is 40k. That of your husband or wife is 60k. Collectively, your family income is 100k. Your 17 year old daughter in 100 level Mass Communication, Unizik is using a phone worth 600k. Your family's 6 months earning.

You didn't say anything. You only call her to take pictures of you when you are going for Traditional/White weddings, Mother's Sunday, Father's Sunday or August meeting. When your second son got admission into the university, you couldn't afford to send him to school. His 17 year old immidiate older sister in year 100 decided to take it up, and pay off the 300k needed for his entrance into ANSU.

You thanked God and asked him to bless your daughter and multiply her source of wealth.

When your Umunna (family clan) had a contribution, you asked her to please help you out. She sent you 100k.

You put her in your prayers. She is the pillar of your family.

What would you people have done without her?

You bill her, she bills her boyfriend.

Who is this boyfriend? This your family saviour?

You are worried about Yahoo ritual killings.

Maybe you need to look at yourself again.

Two things are predominantly involved, it's either she is dating a G guy or Hook up... Those that can afford it legit are like one or two out of twenty girls. Most ate lazy, want free money.

Start asking questions alongside proper investigation. Your daughter aff trabaye

simple instruction that has been passed into the constitution, vacate your post before contesting! You are talking about how much money he made. Someone is violating the constitution if I am correct and you think it's cool because of your political sentiments. So bad. Someone who concentrated on handling cbn and messed it up, what so you think would happen if he becomes distracted. Tambuwa was right.

Even tambuwal sef an kettle calling pot black

MikoB:
I am more yoruba than yourself, so Osinbajo is igbo? You guys think Tinubu is yorubas' project, I don't blame you anyway, probably you are living in lagos and unfortunately even lagos is a dissapointment when it comes to good governance, you can imagine a state with a bigger gdp than that of Oslo and many other European cities capitals, cannot even boast of tarred roads all over , talkless of other modern infrastructural facilities,I am yoruba that doesn't make me to be blind to the truth. And with Osinbajo as the president, Lagos will be liberated from the hand of one man sitting on the destiny of over 20 million lagosians, imagine lagos Governor couldn't start and complete over 6km Road at a stretch all the roads he has commissioned are less than 7km at a stretch , is that not a shame? Whereas, akwa ibom governor commissioned over 29km of Road at a stretch recently, where is lagos money going? Ti iro balo loogun odun ijo kan ni otito maba.

I keep asking that same question but instead of giving an accurate answer... They start calling you Igbo, start insulting or making useless references to.

Ask them where Lagos money goes to, they all go crazy like roaches.

Tinubu is not close to who the nation talk less Yorubas can trust with their future.

There is nothing like Hausa Fulani, it's Hausa and Fulani. Just like Igbo and Yoruba but in this case, Fulanis are not Nigerians most are illegal migrants from Niger and Mali. The Hausa Fulani narrative was a scam idea brought up to make Fulani benefit from Nigeria through Hausa who are legitimate and indigenous to Nigeria.

The Fulanis have been running the Hausas scam. All the benefits meant to them and being hijacked. And now they are uncontrollable, their entitlement is now getting off hands, trespassing and causing disaster.

It's almost impossible to see Hausas commit atrocities but Fulanis are are pure evil. There are good Fulnis tho, but it's like two out of thirty.

The tolerance which Hausas have for Fulani should be studied in Harvard, even when they are being slaughtered they are always silent and peacefully watching. No remedy no solution and then can't even stop them from killing, kidnapping, and terrorism.

Na big market be this

Laff wan finish me. Nairaland never ceases to amaze me. Omo, tuface daughters are beauties. She is well dressed. But the growth sha.

I wonder what kind of fertilizer seeds germinate in women.

Any small thing gbas gbos everywhere.

If any Igbo brother blames and accuses any Yoruba here for what they don't know about na Amadeohan whichever go punish the person.

See what's happening, now that they have their shot. But later now, Yoruba this and that.

Wo, left for me, lobby Osinajo out of APC make him the flag bearer and make Obi the VP.

They Igbos are not supporting each other in this delicate times, I thought all hands would be on deck, but I was wrong.

Lock her up. Sue her for damages.

BarrElChapo:
You started well but by ending with Osibanjo as your choice, well I can't or don't have the strength to reply your long scattergun epistle. Have a good day

you are welcome

BarrElChapo:
Has there being any time any region supported on candidate from the get go.

You're better than being gullible enough to swallow that madman analysis from that guy.

Mr man keep shut. This is the first time a very good number of people have this view that a someone of Igbo extraction. Should clinch the presidential seat. This is the first time an Igbo person is getting close. There should be a common agenda and not too many options. Push one and the best, get the presidential seat, build trust, and win more in upcoming elections. Not creating different options that would split interests and votes. That is how people who think Wike should win wouldn't vote for Obi because they are not happy that their fave didn't get the presidential ticket, while those who support Obi would rather not vote because they don't like Wike vice versa for every other Igbo candidate. There should be one goal.

For your sanity, I didn't post this because of one interest or the other. I posted it out of good fate. So get sense.

If I were to choose I would say Osinbajo cos he is the only one I see fit, someone who knows how things are being Asorock, and know how to handle them, although his silence during the endsars, twitter, fulani killings was worrisome. But if there is a better option, that's okay, instead of selling for lesser evil.

Igbos should reduce these their whatever ambitions and push one first. Before doing going ahead to start putting any candidates out there. This should be actualized first.

I am not talking about useless Ameachi, those ones are butt lickers more like Tinubu. While Ngige that one would keep using our lives to catch cruise and make all students frustrated and won't schooling. They posses qualities of a bad lead.

I wish to see Osinbajo and Obi as president and vice if possible.

Go and ask the accountant general . Do you ask such questions from your own govt?

oga lo wa ibikan joko si

drlateef:
Who pockets it? Why don’t you petition EFCC? And what’s happening in Rivers and other states? Lagos does not receive 13% oil revenue and Rivers receives highest income from Abuja, what have they done with it? Who’s pocketing Rivers money? Before Tinubu became Governor, who was pocketing Lagos money?

How much is the IGR of Lagos per annum. How much does Lagos budget for infrastructure and others yearly? Where are the rest going to

drlateef:
It doesn’t happen overnight. Yet progress is being made on daily basis. We will get there. We are leaving the rest of Nigeria behind, can’t you see that?

with Lagos IGR!! Lagos is still looking like that

Only fashola did a significant transformation
Ambode added little

When you make 100 milli for instance and you pocket 80 million the rest for development of infrastructure and other things; the result is what you are all seeing under Sanwo olu and Tinubu Tenure

Ever since fash left progress has been on pause or snail pace.

That one no be progress. Tinubu has always been the problem

On top hin presidential ambition nahin make you write this long long article

They must have paid you well

PassingShot:
I read a NL thread https://www.nairaland.com/7077990/why-tinubu-lose-osinbajo-apc#up suggesting reasons why PYO will defeat BAT in the APC primary election to select who flies the ticket of the party in 2023 and I could not help but to laugh at the naivety and desperation of the writer. Well, without paying any attention to the weak and unfounded reasons he presented in his article, I make bold to advance the following arguments to conclude that Jagaban Borgu remains the only candidate who will win the primary contest, barring any last-minute jettisoning of primaries for consensus which is not even contained in the constitution of APC.

1. Tinubu’s political structure and machineries
Even, his political foes will attest to the fact that BAT has built a well-oiled political structure that has not only survived the best of political warriors in OBJ and GEJ (with federal might), his structure has endured the worst of political earthquake and has remained very solid and functioning. In the primary contest for the presidential candidate which will be decided by delegates from APC across the 36 states, Tinubu structure will come in hand to deliver the goods.

2. BAT’s political alliance
This is somewhat related to the first point but not entirely the same. In the course of single-handedly building and strengthening his political base (ACN), Tinubu it was who took ACN into alliance with CPC, ANPP, a faction of APGA and a faction of PDP. In fact, most political watchers agreed that the 2 most important figures in that successful alliance that produced APC are Buhari and Tinubu. The rest were only needed to make up the numbers and the spread. BAT has since that alliance built a working relationship with strong politicians in the north. The likes of Ganduje, Ribadu, Ado Dogawa, Ahmed Lawan, etc. are staunch Tinubu’s supporters who will deliver the delegates from that side of the country.

3. Neutrality of PMB
PMB remains a political juggernaut whose support and influence can, to some extent determine who wins the APC ticket. From what I have read and heard, it was this support that Osinbajo was looking for that delayed his declaration. Unfortunately for him, PMB did not assure him of anything, instead preferring to be neutral and asking all the contestants to work hard to win the ticket. While it is possible for PMB to have a preference for PYO (highly doubtful), Buhari has demonstrated many times that he handles situations like this with utmost maturity and fairness to all involved. If he has forgotten how BAT deployed his resources to make him defeat Atiku and Kwankwaso in 2014 and to win the presidency in 2015 and 2019, he will surely be reminded by his close allies like Ganduje and the Senate President of this fact. And Buhari will choose to remain neutral. It is PYO who needs PMB so much and not the other way round.

4. Clear message of endorsement by the APC Senate and Rep Caucuses
Not many watchers of political development will have missed the enormous support Tinubu enjoys from the APC senators and representatives. They are not hiding it and they have been saying it loud and clear even to the hearing of PYO. You only need to watch the Senate session when BAT paid the APC caucus a visit to intimate them of his ambition. You can also listen to Ado Doguwa’s recent interview on the same subject
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqe6AQllcPA and here https://www.nairaland.com/7079123/doguwa-speaks-bola-tinubus-aspiration. I also read that of the seventy-something invited by PYO for Iftar, only 24 or so honored the invitation with majority of them spotting facemask with BAT logo. These speak volume about their position. They are the people that matter in this election and they are not politicians you can intimidate to change their mind. They believe in BAT and they are ready to reward his past support for them too.

5. Osinbajo has no political structure
After seven years of being the VP of Nigeria, it is a fact that PYO has no political base or structure of note with which he can be guaranteed of delegates votes. This is someone who lost his polling booth in the last general election. Irrespective of whatever sentiment anyone in the party top hierarchy may want to have for a PYO candidacy, they will realize what a dangerous option his candidacy represents for their party and they will bury the thought without wasting time.

6. Perception of PYO as someone who cannot be trusted
Like it or not, Osinbajo’s declaration has portrayed him as someone who cannot be relied upon. In politics, the currency is loyalty and anyone who is perceived as not loyal is usually avoided by those who matter. Even among those currently propping the professor on, there are those who will be murmuring within their heart that the VP cannot be trusted not to betray them at some point, especially if he becomes president and thus untouchable. I will personally be weary of such character too. Yes, he has the constitutional right to contest but he has thrown morality to the dustbin by standing up to challenge his one-time political mentor. I read a piece about how Tiinubu reluctantly agreed for Osinbajo to be the running mate to PMB out of the three names suggested to him. The fact that BAT’s choice was still going to be picked and that he eventually agreed to PYO being named as the running mate is enough for our erstwhile star boy to abandon his ambition for BAT’s.

Anyway, let’s see how far the support of sycophants and traducers of Tinubu can carry him in his quest to wrestle APC’s ticket from Jagaban.

Passingshot (O.S. Olayiwola)

Omo if peradventure he loses primaries he should opt for another party. Loyalty to thieves is not a kind of loyalty that is beneficial to the nation in general

All of them are saying trash about loyalty because of what they hope to gain, and their need that may not be fulfilled with the nations wealth.

*2023: Tien Jack Rich Visits Fellow Presidential Aspirant, Sen. Rochas Okorocha*

Oil mogul, Tien Jack Rich on Friday paid a partisan visit to the Senator representing Imo West and former Governor of Imo state, Sen Rochas Okorocha, himself also a presidential aspirant on the platform of All Progressives Congress ( APC) at his Abuja home.

Both leaders are aspiring to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari as the country's President and commander in chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces in 2023.

It is however not clear the reason for the visit but our correspondent categorically gathered that it is not unconnected with the politics of 2023 and how to consolidate on the gains made by President Muhammadu Buhari to make the country better.

Both leaders have been strong advocates of good governance and improved living standards for the people.

Tien Jack Rich, the chairman of Belema Oil Ltd who is a ringer of firsts in the Nigerian oil and gas sectors had recently joined politics with an avowed declaration to seek election into the number one office in the country.

Since this decision, the Nigerian media space has been agog with declaration of support from various interest groups and political blocs across geographical zones of the country.

A philanthropist and humanitarian, the Presidential front runner is known for massive empowerment of the people through educational scholarships, employment opportunities, construction of social amenities and other infrastructures.

This visit is also believed to inculcate the spirit of political friendship and the need to avoid politics of bitterness, acrimony and rancour amongst politicians in Nigeria.

Jack Risch kor Jack Bow wow

He is a lesser evil compared to what we have on ground

His lack of support for restructuring worries me

But he is a valid candidate

I don't expect much from him. Half bread is better than none.

Messi1997:
I have been here since 2015 i can tell you that akure has its pros and cons.Pros in a way transportation is cheap,its peaceful,the locals are friendly,accomodation is also cheap.
Cons are foodstuff are on the high side,shop owners are not industrious;imagine opening shop as late as 10-11 and closing as early as 6-7,Also no much relaxation spots and good eateries,no much banks either.

so imagine one as a business man taking advantage of their lack of seriousness. It won't take long before things fall in place

Tomek09:
Lagos is already overcrowded. Ondo, Ekiti and Osun are empty and unenterprising.

I disagree with you. If you have the right goods to sell, you can never run down. There are many igbos that are making tones of money in Ondo state, all depends on the goods you sell or the services you render.

Ne here I dey wey one man from east started one small chemist beneath a story building and some years down the line he built three stories building, kept running his chemist there alongside a supper market. Then went ahead to build a story building and a warehouse where he sells meds and built a house for himself.

For the haters it was not organic but if you know how he started you won't be surprised. There is no medication you want that he doesn't sell when it was a small business. The best super markets, chemists, electrical appliances stores and boutiques are owned by them, they run the economy. So what's the excuse again?


It depends on what you have to offer to the community you find yourself.

The Lagos gra gra might be missing, but there is no life you want to live that you can't live if you have your money

intergral:
Sorry to say but true the Southwest is fast adopting western cultures... Little buys and girls there openly declare they are gay and it is spreading like wild fire... If you have small children going to mix with other children there just know that the behaviour of your children will drastically change... Your children will become harsh and impatient!

what nonsense talk is this?

You live your life on social media and you think that is reality?

Some people are block heads on this platform

uncletunsman:
Good evening to every member of this noble forum. Please, I need practical advice or guidance as I will be relocating from Kano to Akure with my family. Your advice, suggestions and shared experiences will be highly appreciated.
The moderator kindly moves this to the front page.

Don't listen to those saying non-sense they have no brains, they are morons and bunch of block heads.

The only problem is Akure landlords don't play with their rents and properties. Aside from this, Akure is one of the coolest city you can live in.

Make sure you visit the house you want to rent and see that the house functions well, and the environment is cool.

As long as you have something that generate income for you, you will be fine.

Akure is economically vibrant and very safe.

I am not from there but I live close enough to know how calm and vibrant that city is

The population of Ibos in SW is almost comparable to the numbers of Yorubas. If what some people are saying are true, I sure that they will never move from the East to SW

I am disappointed in some tribal degenerates on this platform. Simple question, people that do not know shiiit started saying shiIt

Funny enough, most of them have never left their huts to hustle in another region. They have only visited all states in SW on on Nairaland and their imaginations.
