You are politically smart indeed.

SmartPolician:
Calling what Tinubu does revenue drive is being modest. He's just taxing Nigerians up and down because he's bereft of revenue generation ideas.

If you ever find out I was right, remember to acknowledge it either privately or publicly.

Cheers

Go to many states and see herdsmen destroy people's farms. Not everyone has assess to land. Non of the farmers in Nigeria is a billionaire.
Where will people get the funds for the farming? Without mechanization, production will be very low.

Bros go and rest please.

Agriculture and agro-allied sectors are growing. People are back to planting cocoa and palm trees. People are exporting cash crops and foods abroad because Nigerian goods are now cheaper. Before PBAT, you hardly found Nigerian chilli pepper on the shelves in US stores, despite its abundance. If Chilli Pepper is packed to the export standards, it will be cheaper than what is on the shelves in the US. Those who know such are going through the Nigeria Export Promotion Council and earning forex.

This is not propaganda, and I know you wanted business ideas. Here is one.

Elusive001:
Please, tell us the sectors and the opportunities thay have been opened in them and not propaganda.

I do not know how they trained them. The problem with the womenfolk is that they open their mouth too much and are quick to compete with their husband.
Marriage is not a competition between the husband and the wife. Regardless of a woman's contribution to the family's finances, she is primarily responsible for household chores. However, a husband will do house chores for his family if the woman treats him right, respects him, and cares for him.

My token to the sensible women out there, not to the fish brains that abound everywhere.

Chilipepper:
If income comes from both husband and wife, then chores MUST come from husband and wife too. — Journalist Eloho Johnson sparks debate.

Anyone can believe what they want. In fact, a belief can become a shackle. If you hang around pessimists and cynics, you will be ruled by uncertainty till your life is spent.

The economy is hard, yes, it is. But many are adapting to the opportunities that the economy has opened and moving forward. While the policies brought difficulty, they also opened opportunities in some sectors.

Apart from your mindset and beliefs that are blocking your success, your lack of skills in the sectors that opportunities have opened up may also be a reason for your difficulty.
If Nigeria becomes as rich as Saudi Arabia in a year, only those who have the right skills will still benefit. It comes down to individual skills and adaptability to do what will make them prosper.

Marriages have their own uniqueness. Whatever works for you is fine as long as you are together and don't beat up each other.
A healthy marriage needs some spark. Such a spark could be the petty arguments. But it keeps your marriage strong. It is when you tell each other the truth, as expected of a healthy and honest marriage, that you have such arguments. A marriage built on telling each other the truth will certainly have some arguments here and there. A marriage between a master and a slave will not have such a healthy argument because one has been trained not to have an opinion.

Daejumong:
‘No argument with my wife in 17 yrs of marriage’- Pastor David Oyedepo Jnr.

Having arguments in marriage can actually be healthy!

Why Arguments Matter in Marriage
1. They Build Trust
-When couples argue respectfully, they show that it’s safe to express disagreement.Over time, this builds emotional security and openness

2. They show Hidden Issues
• Arguments often reveal concerns that have been hiding beneath the surface.Addressing these early prevents issues from growing• It is better to release tension than let it explode later.

3. They Promote Honesty
• In conflict, people often speak their raw truth. This can lead to better understanding and connection.

4. They Improve Communication Skills
• Learning to argue well—without yelling or shutting down—teaches conflict resolution.

5. They Strengthen the Bond
• Working through disagreements shows commitment• Couples who resolve conflict together often feel more united afterward.

6. They Establish Boundaries
• Arguments clarify what’s okay and what’s not.
• They help couples define personal limits and mutual expectations

“A little conflict can build trust, so approach disagreements with respect to grow closer”

• Proverbs 15:1 — “A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.”
• Ephesians 4:26 — “Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.”
• James 1:19 — “Be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry.”

Before you say Nigeria happened to him,
He paid the price for the Yahoo Yahoo that you celebrated and danced to.
He paid the price for the business email compromise, whose perpetrators you proudly called big boys.
He paid the price for the cultism Nigerians exported abroad, brandishing cutlasses with open chests in a foreign land.
He paid the price for the prostitution rings and people (s-x) trafficking.
He paid the price for the money laundering.
He paid the price for the organised criminal gangs that span the West and Asia, dealing in drugs, and laundering the money around the world.
He will not be the last to pay the price, as many have paid the price for the bad reputation these desperate Nigerians have created abroad.
Nigerians do not rank in the top 10 immigrant nationalities, yet their bad reputation is worse than all immigrant countries.
Nigerians must accept that there will be consequences for these criminalities. Why must Nigerians commit a crime for money
Let us change our values. It is time to stop pointing fingers as leaders. Everyone must change their rich by all means mentality.

Please read in between the lines. I do not support the killings of anybody, not for their religion, political affiliation or ethnic group. All lives matter.
Let us eshew bitterness . Those killed have families, they have dependants.

Elusive001:
According to you politics does not have to be bitter, while it's okay for innocent people to be dying daily bah? Even a poultry infested with bird flu has not recorded the daily deaths in Nigeria, due to insecurity and mis-governance.

You are saying exactly what they want you to say. You are thinking just the way they want you to think. Very predictable.
When insecurity was weaponized against GEJ, we blamed him for incompetence. Buhari came and could not stop it. Tinubu is still struggling with insecurity. Nigeria's insecurity in the North and the SE is beyond the party and the president. It is homegrown. Unless the people themselves reject insecurity and politicians stop weaponizing it to attain office, it will persist.

Apcshit:
They voted APC during the last election. RIP to the dead though

The economic hardship and the middle-class Japa affected all malls, but that was not the fatal blow that killed Shoprite. The Shoprite supply chain was not as flexible as the Nigerian-owned smaller malls. The smaller malls receive supplies from the small importers. They directly go to Lagos Island to buy and retail. Hence, they can sell at more pocket-friendly prices.
In addition, Shoprite management was not quick to respond to the antics of Nigerian workers. They lost much to in-house fraud. These are the reasons the SA guys exited Nigeria. The Nigerian owners have struggled to stabilise the business.

Not everything is about government policies. Our people actually kill businesses faster than government policies. Every business person in Nigeria will attest to this.

Our people kill businesses and cry that there is no employment.

Jokerman:
Please who knows what's happening to ShopRite at Ikeja City Mall? Are they in debt??

That place is a shadow of itself... Could not get anything from there- was so pissed.

Please what happening to the Nigerian Buyer?? Or are they leaving Nigeria?

I use to pity my parents when I was a kid until I grow up to understand that they are actually the Problem of their life misfortune ..

The Man story : He started working at the age of 25 as as teacher and worked for 12 years before getting married.
That 12 years working as a single teacher , he couldnt advance in his career.
His mate were busy looking for means to top up their certificate.
Getting BSC, master or PHD or finding means to switch career to get better pay for the sake of his unborn kids rather
He was unconcerned with his NCE.
Bragging just because he is an NCE holder.
12 years no achievement to his name....

The woman: Ordinary primary school holder , the people training her tell her never to marry that man but let her wait and finish school before marriage.
No handwork, no business
She ran away to start living with the so called teacher..

She married the man against the people wish.
Started giving birth to kids including me.
Throughout my 40 something years , I have never seen their wedding pic.

After few years of marriage , she got job with her primary school certificate receiving peanut.
Throughout their marriage they ware going from one loan company to another borrowing money to survive because of lack of planning before they married.

In my primary school days , I could remember how some of the creditor will come to our house and carry property if the fail to pay on agreed date.
This woman will be in the church deceivin herself praying from morning to night for break through.
How can you have breakthrough wen you no get hardwork or business or no school.

You had opportunity to go school but you no go rather you choose marriage.
It was so unfortunate I am one of their product

No matter how bright a light is, no one sees it when the eyes are closed.
If all you see now is difficulties, you will miss the opportunities.
People are starting to make mega bucks in cash cropping exports, FMCG, Banking, Stocks, and the rejuvenated oil and gas industry. Insurance will soon boom. The shackles holding down the Nigerian economy since 1960 are being dismantled rapidly. Those who are prepared for the opportunities and with open eyes will take advantage.

JAOS:
What will he be contributing 🫤
What is the president contributing himself

Posterity will likely prove him right where he stood on the right side, especially with the way the economy is turning the corner.

vanbonattel:
The respected prof who sold out to evil people has lost all his respect

This man's life will be remembered by him eating with the oppressors of the masses, as against his earlier stance when he was younger.

Poverty of the mind can really affect old people.

Words of wisdom.

You are probably not a parent. I have to keep it at this because I will be considered judgmental. Anyway, pay attention to the impact of vices on the majority if you are immune. The impacts of shows like BBN is massively negative.

BlackViper:
I'm usually not a fan of “moral” crusades and other manifestations of moral posturing by hypocritical, “Holier than thou” Nigerians because I feel that there are far greater types of immorality confronting this country than whether or not the hemline of a young lady's skirt crosses her knees, or whether that dress she's wearing accentuates her curves or whether a young man has dreadlocks and is wearing ripped jeans.

I always find it amusing when religious leaders denounce "immoral dressing", then invite politicians to the pulpit to address congregations. These religious leaders act as if corruption, embezzlement and nepotism are not acts of gross immorality and politicians have not been the actual heavyweight champions of immorality in Nigeria right from the beginning. Think about it. Have we not been having greedy, incompetent politcal buffoons in Nigeria since 1960, long before anyone even knew what a mini skirt was?

But all the same, I still have an axe to grind with BBN simply because I believe the monetary reward system attached to it is obscenely inflated relative to what it projects. Imagine giving 150 million naira as a reward to someone for simply idling around, gossiping, eating, drinking, fornicating etc for 90 days.

Meanwhile a 1st class graduate will be lucky to get N100,000 during his graduation ceremony and many of them don't even get that much.

You can pick your fight with the Tinubu support group and their paid online mercenaries. I stated what I read of El Rufai, and it is in the public domain.

Penguin2:
Did you remember he was a BUTCHER when he led the governors who challenged Naira Redesign in court just for the sake of Tinubu?

Interesting. Politics eh. Desperation to court the Igbos. The BUTCHER of Southern Kaduna and his family are desperate.


[quote author=Penguin2 post=136341505]The wife of the former governor of Kaduna State, Mrs Hadiza Elrufai, has praised Nigerians of Igbo origin who are based abroad for majorly contributing towards making Nigeria proud abroad.

Mrs Elrufai was most likely reacting to the major part played by Igbo-Americans in the recent victories of Super Falcons in Morocco and D’Tigress in Abidjan.

Every marriage has an expiry date.
Every woman has a target for the man she is married to. When you hit a woman's marriage target, she disposes of you and moves up.
By getting her abroad, you have met her target of you and will move up soon.
Prepare for it.

Liazz:
Am I being unreasonable being mad at my wife?
We relocated abroad 3 years ago but she isn't helping to settle any of the bills.

We both are gainfully employed though I earn much than she does. Our monthly expenditure is about £2000 and she doesn't care to help in any way. I foot all bills making me struggle to save while she keeps all she earns to herself. We also had a loan of over 10 thousand pounds to settle when we relocated, she didn't help with a dime till I paid all bits by bits which took me almost 2 years.

Despite this, I still help with house chores like taking care of our kids, home cleaning and even washing dishes though she does all the cooking.
I've expressed my displeasure several times but she keeps insisting I can't force her to financially assist, it's my job as I'm the husband. She seems convinced she isn't doing any wrong and no sign of remorse whatsoever.

I financed our relocation 100% without her contributing a dime.

This is causing a strain in the marriage and I am thinking if I am unreasonable in my demand, am I?
Your comments are highly welcome.

In fact, dem market go become so valueless dem go find work do. But that is rather hypothetical. These men wey do money rituals or defraud or do drugs have no value for money. Dem go pay.

dollytino4real:
If men refuse to pay because of yanch and kpekus, ladies they will think of something else to do.

To you, it is still all about religion despite the amount of education and enlightenment in the non-mainstream media.

The day the West's interest is against you or your tribe or country, you will learn that it is power, oppression, neo-colonialism, and imperialism.

fuckingAyaya:
Some head slammers said they took the centrifuge out before the strike, like say uranium centrifuge na roasted corn. So America will fly a whole B2 bombers with enough lethal weapons and fuel to iran just to miss target?

Honestly, it makes no difference to me who wins the next election. The North, including the ACF, should be told the truth.
The North is gaslighting the rest of Nigeria. They created the insecurity ravaging the North, which has caused the high cost of food.
They ganged up against the president in less than a year in power and started plotting to unseat the president in the 2027 election.
Here they are, blaming PBAT for starting an early electioneering campaign.
Whatever the North is thinking, if they don't stop this mentality, they will finish this country. We will all go our separate ways someday. The hypocrisy is absurd.

Bobloco:

Frankly, our loyalty should be to our country, not to any politician or political party. Having stated that, it does not matter if President Tinubu loses the 2027 election, so long as a better candidate with a well-articulated programme wins, and regardless of which part of the country the candidate comes from.
The issue I have with the likes of Ndume and the major Northern leaders is the gaslighting. The North created the problem of insecurity with the mismanagement of the resources that accrued to the Northern region. The North promoted unbridled procreation but failed to provide mass education, vocational, and professional careers. There are so many able-bodied young men in the North living miserable lives, which is fueling the insecurity. The Northern leaders continue to hold on to archaic mentality, like open grazing, further worsening the insecurity. The insecurity of life and property created by the North caused food insecurity because the farmers have abandoned the farms. Yet, the Northern leaders are blaming the president for the high cost of living.
The Northern leaders are the enemies of Nigeria because they hate the truth, and it appears they prefer the North to be a special country within the country called Nigeria. Time will decide if Nigeria will survive or disintegrate.

If you read the reasons given by the court, the dismissal of the case was legally right. A higher court had ruled on the case, and a party joined in the case was outside the court's jurisdiction.

Democracy is dead in Nigeria. PDP started it.. so no noise..

But u see wike and bossman Tinubu.. History will remember them as the best

What an irony. You have affirmed that starvation was a good policy against the successionists, was right after all.

Hello bros,
Is any registration required by an ecommerce that is an aggregator of service providers and persons looking for work?

Then, call them out if you have evidence they spent public funds. I have condemned what has been established to be public funds doled out to NBA.
There are still people who have refused to take sides on the Rivers crisis.

Pro wike group UK Trips no be public fund ba?

Uncle Falana has lost it.
He pursues cases on social media for relevance. He can be more useful to us all, fighting for the masses against those thieving banks that steal our money with outrageous and dubious charges. There are many ways he can help.

The NBA has no shame. N300M of public funds for some lawyers to merry? How will the NBA extricate itself from the bad governance in the country? Why should the NBA hold such an extravagant and flamboyant conference annually at the expense of government funds? The money is nothing but a bride.
There is something called materiality in ethics, and N300M is material enough to be considered a bribe. The NBA could never have looked Fubara in the eye and told him he did something wrong after collecting the N300M. Politics apart, and if the issues between the Rivers gladiators are set aside, the people of Rivers should call for the head of both the giver and the receiver of the bride.
By the way, if the common people call the Rivers Government illegal, should a so-called ''learned profession'' do so without a court pronouncement that the Rivers Government is illegal? Anything to keep their loot.

Very shameless people.

Are you shaming the muslims who made him their leader or the entire 1.3B Muslims in the world?

SadiqBabaSani:
Shame to Muslims for appointing this pagan unbeliever as leader of Muslims

The struggle in the Benue, the Plateau, and the rest of the North Central is not religious but a land grab. An ethnic group realized it has no land to itself and most especially it has been displaced from most other countries in the West and Central African regions. The ethnic group has powerful people in Nigeria's government, the military and the paramilitary. The powerful people hatched a plan to grab lands for their ethnic group and, hence have trained and armed its people. These killings will continue unless the governors of the North Central man up, establish, and arm its militia to defend its people. The North Central governors are particularly inept not to have established a well-trained and armed militia clandestinely since these killings have been on for over thirty years. The South of Nigeria had better prepared because once the North Central is fully decimated, these land grabbers will move further south.
These same people are already grandstanding to have the solution that PBAT does not have though they have been in power so long. When they come back to power, the rest of the country will see a resumption of the slaughter, the likes we witnessed when Bubu was in power and Hell-Rufo was governor.

It's high time Father Alia activated the knights of the church to start playing their primary role. Just like the way the crusaders defended the church in the past, they have a responsibility to defend the church today. These islamic terrorists must not overrun Benue State.
