planetx: Lebanese should be the one's coming to Nigeria to be doing househelp for us due to how bad the situation in their country is. But because they look like oyinbos we gave them an undeserved elevated position in our country due to our messed up thinking that they are better than us.
Na wa o. Lebanons economy is not dt bad. Downtown beirut looks like new york and they have an active nightlife like dubai. Is it our country dt doesnt have electricity & minimum wage of $50/month they will come and be doing househelp in? This whole househelp thing should even be scrapped in nigeria too. Its modern day slavery.
osamz007: THERE ARE SUCCESSFUL NIGERIANS IN LEBANON
NOT AS IF I'M NOT CONDEMNING THE LEBANESE BUT WHAT WAS THE MOTIVE BEHIND HER TRIP THERE
I HOPE NOT FOR QUICK CASH AS. MANY DO.
Some lebanese have agents in lagos advertising maid and nanny jobs in lebanon. They are promised a good salary. Better than entry level bank jobs.
Hungry nigerians go and end up being used for housework & their passports collected by their employer upon entry in lebanon. Some are bought and sold and moved from one family to the other like slaves. I reference slavery because they live wt their employers & have no say in this whole process.
Anyway it's not their fault. Its what they see us doing here wt housegirls dt theyre copying. Na we no value ourselves.
Most people in europe enter university at 17, graduate at 21 & are already at a full time job. The next proper thing should be to settle down. (Some of them have been working jobs since 14 years old).
Its modernity dt has changed this progression to early marriage among whites, but if you check their traditional families, religious families, they still adhere to the early marriage rule. Nigeria used to practise & some still practise early marriage too, so no big deal.
To all the tribalists, she is not a yoruba woman. Her first name is not yemi. Its iyema. This blog & op were being mischievous. IYEMA is not a yoruba name.
Sweeetheart: @ the topic, Mrs Yemi should be sentence to death.
freedomchild: Had it been she's an Igbo woman, children from the scratched face region in this nairaland will start misyanning here
dario078: I ask again? Why are southern women like this. This woman is Yoruba, but most times, it's Igbo women.
OfoIgbo: Please someone should find out whether this Mrs. Yemi Awolowo is related to Mrs. Hushbanjo. I heard she also came from the Awolowo family. The whole lineage should be wiped out.
Grandmeister: Get da fvck out of here! Where were you when Igbos were called names when a similar story graced the front page some days ago..you yorubas always feign amnesia when confronted with your own malice.
Osagyefo98: I don't know why western women are this wicked and callous.
dominique: Hope the people insulting Igbo women on that tortured girl's thread can now see that wickedness knows no tribe or religion
sofiscatedmoron: From the shape of her head. I already know her tribe
IvarTheBoneless: Keep your mouth shut and stop crying in pain Read that post well, I was actually telling bigots not to insult.
Sarah20A: this Afonja woman was properly taught by your Biafrud women
Well, she is not a yoruba woman. Her first name is not yemi. Its iyema. This blog & op @agwom were being mischievous. IYEMA is not a yoruba name.
More than 70 countries warned they are at risk of running out of HIV medication due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to a survey conducted by the World Health Organization.
Twenty-four countries said they have a “critically low” stock of antiretroviral medicine, or ARVs, largely used as a therapy to treat HIV, or have seen a disruption in their supply chain as a result of the pandemic, the WHO said.
“The findings of this survey are deeply concerning,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a statement. “Countries and their development partners must do all they can to ensure that people who need HIV treatment continue to access it. We cannot let the COVID-19 pandemic undo the hard-won gains in the global response to this disease.”
In May, the WHO and the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS estimated that AIDS-related deaths in sub-Saharan Africa could double due to a six-month disruption of access to antiretroviral medication. That estimate applied only through 2020. While there’s no cure for HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, antiretroviral medication is proven to control the virus and prevent infection to others.
The closure of land and air transportation, failure of suppliers to deliver the medication and limited access to health services were among the causes of disruption cited in the WHO survey. More than 25 million people received treatment with antiretroviral drugs in 2019, the WHO said, adding that it expects to miss 2020 targets.
Olugbanko: will hatred and penchant for fake news peddling allow ipob miscreants from the Yeast believe this?
It is an ipobian/pdp minion that made that story up & perpetuated it. Its all to ensure Osinbajo doesnt run for 2023 presidency. Stay woke!
I swear nigerians are dumb. Magu never mentioned osinbajo anywhere, at anytime to anybody. The story was based on 'sources'. Isnt it the presidency dt removed magu? Why remove him if hes benefitting them? Why would buhari remove him & not remove his VP, the recipient of this stealing.
Investnow2017: It would have been honourable to decline the invitation than to appear and bang the door against them. So things have become sooooooo this bad
It is clearly stated dt the reason for the walkout was because of the disagreement with the committee, about the press being present. He wasnt disrespectful for the sake of it.When he was summoned he wasnt told the press would be there, so his leaving is understandable.
When negotiating prisoner releases you cant just speak off the cuff to the press on behalf of your government.
According to the write-up theyve subsequently had the discussion with the ambassador. Nigerians dont read. It so easy to use their head to play politics.
Meninmen: Mumu doesn't understand that the PDP is giving it's ticket to the North, so is APC. The SE will be compensated with VP. He is talking about SE striving! Striving to do what? Na dem wan give their selves the presidential ticket?
So, in your shallow mind, PDP will give their ticket to SE, and APC will give their ticket to SW? Lol. A simpleton indeed!
As for my heart failing, you don't know anything. I'm from the SS. I rather vote for a Northerner than vote for a person from the SW!
Lol, What a joke! No need arguing wt someone dt has accepted his hopeless fate. I shame for you. Paper tigers.
Meninmen: W[s]e. Those who are known to be genetically cowards and Betrayals are calling others cowards. In case you don't know, when the time is ripe, you will realise that majority of the SS and SE will gladly vote a Northern/SE or SS ticket than to vote a SW/Northern ticket, and which is the reason the North will hold on to power, because the entire South is divided, caused primarily by the greed and betrayal of the SW and which is why a Northern/SS or SE ticket will fly in the entire North and In the entire SS and SE, than a SW/Northern ticket
So, in 2023, when the North decides to hold on to power, you can bring you and your families out to protest! [/s]
All these talk is irrelevant. If the SE does not strive to get the PDP ticket for 2023, theyll be forever viewed as cowards. Your own heart has already failed & we are still in 2020. Shame.
Nchenches: But Nigeria’s 36 states and Abuja political structure with constitutional provision that a presidential candidate must win 25% in 24 states, only a northerner can win Nigeria’s presidential election.
Until the Yoruba and Igbo unite to have Nigeria restructured politically, only northern presidential candidates can easily win.
Lie. 1) Buhari contested twice where he had all the northern votes under CPC. Yet he lost. 2007 & 2011. Fact - The north alone cant win by themselves, they need another regions help.
2) Jonathan won 2011 election with no single northern state. He won the whole south, excluding osun & won the whole middle belt, excluding Niger state. The margin between him & buhari wasnt even close. Fact - It's possible to win a presidential election without northern states.
Meninmen: Lol. Bros, stop deceiving yourself. North is holding on to power. APC and PDP is zoning the presidency to the North. We in the South needs to wake up and stop deceiving ourselves. The SE or SS (less likely the SW) will get the VP slot
You guys are really cowards to give up so easily. Lol!
SE PDP are doing the right thing. I am Yoruba and I support this decision. If they don't fight for the pdp ticket then it's obvious to the whole world they are cowards.
But if the SE wants to win, they must field a technocrat, an outsider, not all these thieving governor's, else they'll lose the elections.
GuyWise101: Igbos are only demanding that PDP and Apc should zone their candidate in SE alone as it was done to Yorubas and North when it was their turn.
dolphinife: Didn't Rocha's contested against Buhari for two different occasions?
Even Orji uzor Kalu contested for presidency against buhari, yaradua, atiku in 2007. He was in PPA.
I remember when I worked in audit for one of the big4. The policy is never collect any cash gift from a client. Gifts from clients must not pass hampers. Anything more must be rejected. You cant even collect cow or ram for christmas/sallah.
Clients dey offer all sorts. Im sure theres no such policy in the public sector. Too many civil servants are corrupt.
Talk show host Morayo Afolabi Brown had a beautiful photoshoot session with popular Photographer Ty Bello to celebrate her 40th birthday.
Morayo’s husband, Femi Brown, turned the photo shoot into a surprise video shoot by pulling off a surprise performance, singing a song he had specially written & recorded in celebration of her birthday.
Bobonnukwu: For those that care to listen, I'm officially announcing my retirement from tribalism and bigotry henceforth. Not only is it draining, pointless and toxic to my well being and self-growth, it has ended up tilting towards a more paradoxical twist in recent events in my life.
F**k tribalism, it can kick rocks! I'm done with Nairaland and it's toxicity for good. I wish you all ALL the best in your endeavors.
I'm out!
Good for you. Hope u have a great life. Dropping hate is always a step in the right direction.
I trust ibadan people. They will rename it back to being nameless. But is it while the current olubadan is still alive they want to do this? I've been saying the Nigerian Senate should be scrapped. They are completely clueless & a waste of money.
Openbusiness3: This idiot girl just destroy herself over nothing. See as she just disgrace her parents. Beauty and talent, yet she still go dey swim with yahoo boys just because she want to belong to Hushpuppi gang. Nawa.
She's not destroyed.
She can bounce back from this as long as she apologizes & owns up to her actions.
