3. Mama Calabar Joints Everywhere 🍛

You don’t need to Google food spots here. Just follow the aroma of Afang soup and white rice. Every street has a Mama Calabar that serves large portions and small attitude — but we love her anyway.

4. The Street G-Wagon Family 🚘

There’s always that one mansion in the middle of bungalows. The gate is taller than the house next door, and on Sunday mornings, they roll out like royalty. No one knows what they do — and we don’t ask.

5. BRT Buses Are a Way of Life 🚌

Forget Uber. Real Surulere people know how to time BRTs like pros. And if you sit by the window and catch the breeze on a sunny day? That’s the Surulere version of soft life.

6. All Roads Lead to Shoprite (And You Know It) 🛍️

Agreed, there are other malls. But somehow, no matter your plans, you end up at the Surulere Shoprite at Leisure Mall. Whether it’s a date, small chops, or just “to chill,” it’s the area code headquarters.

are all these not exaggerations, half truths and fiction?

"all roads lead to shoprite"

"Mama Calabar Joints Everywhere"....

oga, how now?

"BRT Buses Are a Way of Life"

does BRT operate within Surulere moving from street to street or it just passes through all the way to costain that you say it is a way of life?

in the places BRT operates in Lagos, is it not a way of life?

calm down with all this unnecessary hype

Zouzer:
Buhari had his shortcomings, but he was one heck of a firebrand, and also one of the best , if not the best, retail politician since 1999. It doesn't matter whether you liked him or not, it's a fact

how was buhari a firebrand?

what did he do that made him one of the best?

Gbogboski:
The FG can help in that regard.

Lagos is a small piece of land, overpopulation rubishes the best effort of the state government to provide adequate infrastructure for her populace.

help in what way?

did Lagos say that it needs help?

what is the infrastructure in Lagos that overpopulation is rubbishing?

doncartel:
All the ten countries have tiny populations except for South Africa. And many of them have oil, gold and diamonds.

how is that responsible for literacy levels?

nkls

Gbogboski:
Neighboring Ogun or Oyo state or farther afield.

Lagos is dangerously overpopulated for her own good

how does Lagos have the power to move projects and infrastructure to Ogun and oyo states?

Gbogboski:
Lagos is overcrowded already, the authorities should cease further construction works.
New projects and infrastructure should be moved further inland to help spread population away and save Lagos

You say Lagos is overcrowded. Where inland should new projects and infrastructure be moved to?

BuhariAdvocate:
Baba good night you did everything to make sure Nigeria is safe for all of us.

what are the everything that buhari did to make sure nigeria is safe for all of us?

Putindbutt:
Then you need to double your hustle and pray harder, because this kind crowd na normal normal to average people who get doings.

Are you one of the "average people who get doings"?

can you share the several instances in your life where you attracted this type of crowd?

It said officers were working to identify the assailant and that "measures are being taken to detain him".

the assailants have been killed

SoftSport:
We thank him for his dedication and service in striving to make Nigeria a better and stronger nation.

President Tinubu has continued in his footsteps, bringing progress and transformation to the country.

May Allah grant President Tinubu long life, wisdom, and strength to lead Nigeria to even greater heights.

tinubu continued in buharis footsteps of blaming his predecessors.

kindly see tinubu saying that buhari left the country bankrupt.

if you saying "tinubu continued in his footsteps", that means tinubu is making nigeria bankrupt.

if after two years you are expecting God to grant Tinubu wisdom, and strength to lead Nigeria, are you saying that all this while, tinubu did not have the strength and wisdom to lead nigeria?

why then did you vote and support a man that did not have the strength and wisdom to govern nigeria?

madridguy:
Thank you Sai Baba for your great sacrifice for our darling country.

What sacrifice is that?

Does the sacrifice include spending the nations scarce resources on his medical treatment in the UK?

orikoku:
These guy doing wonders in Burkina faso.

how is spending $300 million on a stadium in poor country the same thing as doing wonders?

yinkus6750:
What a great loss to the nation. A great General is gone. Both his military and civilian regime did a lot in shaping up the country. May his soul R.I.P.

which loss is that?

how useful was he to nigeria and nigerians?

what did he do that shaped nigeria?

what was the result of the shaping?

May his soul RIP but something feels off. Very very off

what is the thing that feels off?

Ramanto:
This is shocking. Life is vanity

are you shocked like buhari that buhari is dead?

ekene101:
Village people

is it village people that asked him to cheat?

newnigerdelta1:
Have you cared for your self

how does his caring for himself or otherwise got to do with his post about tinubu?

EngineerOloye:
This is the joke there for me.
What did ADC say about all the listed MIAs since 2014 they have diligently listed here...all of a sudden, they now have a voice! These guys are jokers... Laundering political ambitions for private gain. Same set of people and ideology that got Nigeria into where she is today... Is that what we would depend on to get out of it? Until every Nigerian demands accountability at the grass roots, we remain a tool in the hand of political aspirators.

It is well.

which accountability have you demanded for so far?

is the statement by ADc not a demand for accountability from tinubu?

TonyeBarcanista:
Balaji Abdullahi and his everyday press statements... None of these statements discuss policies or ADC programs. I don't think he deserves any response.

what has tinubu staying in Brazil for extra days after the end of BRIcS summit got to with the policies and programs of ADc?

SoftSport:
President Tinubu stayed back to do some quiet work, meet important people and not everything he does can be shared with the public right away.

so what is the "quiet work" that tinubu was doing in Brazil that cannot be done in Nigeria?

who are the "important people" he met in Brazil that he could not meet during the duration of the BRIcS summit?

who was paying for the extra 5 days he and his entourage stayed in Brazil after the expiration of the BRIcS summit?

how did you come by this information that he was doing "some quiet work" and meeting "important people"?

Gentledove2001:
This man may be a billionaire but he lack class and he the most unstable politician i have seen, he keeps contradicting his self. He keeps explaining and explaining he can't even keep to his words and he want to be president of Nigeria. Is the explanation necessary?

what is the contradiction that he has contradicted himself now with this explanation?

Fiscus105:
You don't know how budget works, ........try to ask the meaning of these statements, LAST YEAR BUDGET IMPLEMENTATION IS LESS THAN 50%

Since you know how budget works, I am surprised that you cannot answer these simple questions....

If the executive does not give cash backing after budget padding, why does the executive accept the padded budget?

If there is no cash backing for padded budgets, why is budget still padded every year?

Fiscus105:
Will executive gives it cash backing? To pad budget is easy to release money is the Koko.

If the executive does not give cash backing after budget padding, why does the executive accept the padded budget?

If there is no cash backing for padded budgets, why is budget still padded every year?

coolcharm:
There are levels to this racism thing. Some stem from deep rooted hatred and evil (like this one)

Is this racism or people protesting that they don't want undocumented migrants coming on boats into their country?

Christistruth03:
Hope Peter Obi heard loud and clear
Church is not a Campaign ground and Nigerians are not
Interested in your Religious War !!!

who visited the church before that led the leadership of the Anglican church to come up with this new directive?

yarimo:
Hian agulu village man won't visit that church

who visited the church before that led the leadership of the Anglican church to come up with this new directive?

igwedubai2:
exactly you are very correct the Nigeria police need to sue them, very bad of them

What you waiting for?

Help the police sue.

Pls don't forget to sue their high commission in Nigeria that denied the CDS visa

Goalnaldo:
In as much as the Nigerian police force is renown for corruption, there are still some good people there. Denying this man PR simply because he was associated with the force is unethical and could be labeled as witch hunting. Should I say all Americans are g*ys simply because a very large of them resides there?

Is it your permanent residency or it is their own?
