Laugh wan finish me. This your experience needs to be studied

MrCork:
brother. they only way to get sexx xx in that nigeria place is only if u pay for it. 95% of women are now prostitutue sir. One of them told me she is a masssage doctor. Brother, I had to pay for massage and worst of all, pay extra for happy ending sexxx. I wasted my moiney and she stole it sir. She trick me sir. This is why all men now prefa to watch blue film. Females can no longer be trusssted. They all prostitute sir!!!

If any individual, including the mentioned opposition figures or anyone else, is found guilty of a crime after a fair and transparent judicial process, they should indeed be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Conversely, the same standard must apply universally. Anyone involved in law enforcement or prosecution who is themselves found guilty of crimes in the future whether related to abuse of power, corruption, or violating due process must also face prosecution to the full extent of the law.

This principle of equality before the law, where legal consequences are determined by evidence and judicial procedure rather than political affiliation, is essential for maintaining a just and democratic society.

What is really going on is this INEC is not acting based on political preference for one party or another, but on a risk-averse legal strategy. They are prioritizing their own legal safety above political expediency for any party.

The agency fears that by uploading one faction's list, they could be held in contempt of a court order they are aware of. The public sees INEC taking sides in SDP/NNPP but "being indecisive" in PDP. From INEC's perspective, the difference is not the party, but the specific legal landscape surrounding each crisis at the moment a decision is required.

Note: I am support of accountability and not politically motivated

I have received your field report and, while i appreciate the enthusiasm but i must address several points

1. Regarding the 5% Statistic: My fact-checkers (a pigeon and a very skeptical barista) found this data unconventional.
It seems your survey was conducted entirely in Lagos traffic jam while listening to geh geh .

2. The Olosho Official Designation i contacted the Ministry of Silly Classifications. They denied any such category, but did confirm the existence of “People Who Will open leg for Your Last Shawarma A much more serious epidemic.

3. The Married Women Proposition Sir, this is not a “hack.” This is how you star in a Nollywood film titled “The Day Trouble Came With a Poster” or “How I Met Your Mother
Claiming they “will never cheat” is like saying a lion “will never bite” because it’s already eating a different zebra.

Note: The loyalty is to the meal ticket, not the_________

In conclusion:
We recommend you recalibrate your dating strategy using units other than naira. Perhaps try “common decency, “mutual respect,” or even “a genuine conversation that doesn’t sound like a procurement plan.”

Yes, he will

southsouthking:
Will she be deported back after her jail terms?

Now let me educate you properly. crime no get ethnic or religious boundary. Anybody fit commit crime, even church members. For Nigeria, pastors don dey jailed for offences like rape. Example, Pastor Timothy Ogbebor for Edo State dem sentence am to life imprisonment for rape, and Pastor Omorotimisa Awusi for Delta State dem give am 10 years for rape. So, no be only one group dey do bad things crime dey everywhere.

Or you think say kidnappers,drug dealers, armed robbers and other LLC no dey go church and pay tithe. 🙄
OK DEY THERE

SpencerForbes:
I purposely didn’t want to call them akwa ibomite just to prove that education doesn’t end in the classroom. Some of us actually travel to learn. If I’m being tribalistic ask any akwa ibomite all the things I just listed.

Bro, you no need to dey prove anything to anybody for this group. If you wan share information for public, make sure say e correct. You talk say education no end for classroom, Yes, I agree and a practical example is my first statement above.

SpencerForbes:
Guy if you know nothing about other culture refrain from typing.

Lastly

Abeg, make you comot that talk wey you dey talk say I no know culture. As a proud Edo boy wey grow for Niger State, I know African culture well well. The original culture wey I practice na love, respect and development. Na that same original culture wey oyinbo people come steal our traditional gods symbols, experiment with am, then dem try to exchange am for cross. Dem dey return some now because dem don see say e get value. Any other culture wey dey cause trouble na counterfeit, my brother.

Pastors have caused more significant harm in society. pastors prioritize wealth and power over genuine spiritual guidance. They use fear based teachings, fake prophecies, and brainwashing tactics to manipulate followers into donating money or blind obedience, exploiting their faith for personal gain.

They create isolated communities where critical thinking is discouraged, making members vulnerable to financial and emotional exploitation. This can break apart families and lead individuals to make damaging life decisions based on false promises.

MaziObinnaokija:
Those ones dey their Church not waka about dey constitute nuisance to the society. The masquerade should stay in their SHRINE/CHIEF compound too dey dance.Nobody will comma drag them their.

But you absolutely right when you said

MaziObinnaokija:
The masquerade should stay in their SHRINE/CHIEF compound too dey dance.Nobody will comma drag them their.

Everybody should worship in spirit not society

MaziObinnaokija:
Those ones dey their Church not waka about dey constitute nuisance to the society.

I disagree with this tho
Na Church dey constitute nuisance pass for society. From speakers 🔊 for outside church to street waka with 🥁 and 🎤 to preaching on the road. To market fake miracles. Etc.

1 firstly i must emphasizes that in a diverse society like Nigeria, it is best to address people collectively as Nigerians first, avoiding tribalistic language which can be divisive and counterproductive.

2. The correct term for a person from Akwa Ibom State is an Akwa Ibomite.
This is the standard demonym, just as someone from Lagos is a Lagosian.

3. Finally churches have caused more significant harm in society. Most pastors (99%) prioritize wealth and power over genuine spiritual guidance. They use fear based teachings, fake prophecies, and brainwashing tactics to manipulate followers into donating money or blind obedience, exploiting their faith for personal gain.

Unlike many traditional community organizations that are rooted in long established cultural checks and balances.

They create isolated communities where critical thinking is discouraged, making members vulnerable to financial and emotional exploitation. This have break apart families and lead individuals to make damaging life decisions based on false promises.

SpencerForbes:
You’re not from akwa ibom so stop arguing. Ask any akwa ibom to narrate nkwot vs utu ikot nkor war or mkpatak vs Uruk eshiet war. Stop arguing what you don’t know. I can list like 5 that I experienced first hand.

nairalanda1:
That's no different from the government borrowing money

You are off point. Bro. You just dey confuse yourself

What has borrowing money get to do with anything i said in my previous article

I provide a solution. That can finance the subsidy and even generate additional revenue. So what are you say

Quick questions What are the basic amenity a government Is supposed to provide for a citizen?


You can make reference to your Social study textbook Basic five or six to be precise. So you get the answer to the question

nairalanda1:
In other words, you want others to pay for electricity for you.

That's flawed thinking, and that's going to lead to more problems.

The thing is, companies work when people pay for their service themselves...not relying on bitcoin or whatever.

Again, some African countries have working electricity because people pay cost reflective tarrifs(GHana and Ivory coast.), OR their country earns far far more than nigerian to pay a subsidy (and even then, countries that used to do that...Egypt...have ended such subsides).

Bro this is a solution. I offered.

Note:i never did said that bitcoin mining generate excess power. Try to understand before making comment

I said."Bitcoin mining operations adjacent to hydro plants like the Rusumo project to monetize excess energy( excess energy coming from the hydroplants), create a dedicated revenue stream for plant maintenance, and generate surplus funds that can subsidize power tariffs for citizens"

So what are you say. Mr man


And lastly. We are discussing the future not the pass. So leave that 2013 story for the God's. And let's discuss solutions

nairalanda1:
Putting aside the fact that bitcoin mining actually consumes power, not generate excess power....which is why they are near the power plants...the fact is, we need far more than just bitcoin to make our power better.

Why pay for what you don't get?

Honestly we just lack the the right people Nigeria with the right idea.

The power industry is a billion dollar industry and there are ways to generate massive income without cutting the people's neck

LET ME Start by highlighting Tanzania's innovative model, where they deploy Bitcoin mining operations adjacent to hydro plants like the Rusumo project to monetize excess energy, create a dedicated revenue stream for plant maintenance, and generate surplus funds that can subsidize power tariffs for citizens. In Nigeria, with major dams like Kainji in Niger State indeed spilling untapped energy,

replicating such public private partnerships could transform this waste into a financial asset using the income from industrial scale mining to independently finance grid maintenance and offset costs, thereby reducing the tariff burden on everyday Nigerians while making the power infrastructure more self-sustaining.

This is a solution. Not just write up.

We need Nigerias that can think outside the box. In the industrial sector(engineers, technicians, researchers and Scientist Not politicians That are been recycled ♻️)

nairalanda1:
Also, continuing on from the above paragraph, that is why power sector has difficulty attracting investors. When tarrifs are kept low for the majority plus the majority are not paying or underpaying..even when tarrifs are kept low, that means potential low ROI. That means that the sector is not going to attract investors money. And they need quite a lot.

Very Well said

okpouman:
Electricity is a social service,it's not supposed to be for profit,certain jurisdictions can be given to private companies to run,like banana island, ikoyi,maitama etc,but the majority of the areas should be run by government not to make profit but to provide a service.

The problem is government can hardly run anything in NIGERIA

What's the name of your area make I check something

Shifi1:
I'm in band A also
Steady light in my side....24/7

Believe me when I say generation is not the problem but distributing it is the problem The discos have refused to Spend money to improve and modernize The distribution Center acquired from Napa

Alphafarms:
A country struggling to generate 5000MW for 200million people, while other smaller African countries generate more. What a shame. If you need peace of mind in your home, just go solar

The N4 Trillion Debt: The question is what services are we owing them for? This is crucial.
I personally argue that if power supply was not provided, or was grossly inadequate, the debt is illegitimate or inflated.

I see it as a debt for failed service, not for power consumed.

owners of this disco using a car of 400 million naira having private jets" If the companies are claiming unprofitability and an inability to maintain infrastructure, such extravagant spending by owners is seen as evidence of corruption, mismanagement, and wealth extraction from a broken system.

Why pay for what you don't get?

My disagreement stems from two valid perspectives one focused on economic sustainability and the other on accountability and systemic corruption.


Lastly

Make nobody ever come tell me say light business no dey yield profit.
If one estate for inside Lagos or Abuja fit give their people 24 hours light, collect money, still make profit for inside
Na Disco wey get whole state to supply, more houses, more money to make. You dey talk say dem no dey see profit?


E no add up.

nairalanda1:
This is easy

Most Nigerians don't pay cost reflective tarrifs for electric power. Far more than those who pay cost reflective tarrifs.
The result is that NEPA (which ceased to exist in 2004 by the way, but for convenience sake..)...cannot buy poles or fix transformers because it is not earning enough profit to do so.

Infact things are so bad , that gencos alone are owed 4 trillion naira, which even government is struggling to pay. DISCOS often times have to resort to police and so forth to get people to pay, but even then more and more often disco workers are attacked and chased away by cutlass wielding customers, who then continue to steal power in the name of 'we are poor'. Whole areas don't even pay for light. And 60% of metered customers bypass the meters.


We need something like 15 trillion naira annually to fix power. Profits in the sector, last i checked, are less than a trillion naira yearly. LOL.

Omo, make i give am as e dey hot

McBishop2020:
Hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My dear, your demand was in order. But you would have waited for him/her to respond

The light has been bad and terrible. We are paying for Band A but getting darkness. They charge us for a promise they have failed to keep.

But this injustice is bigger than just hours of light. Look at the insult!

· Imagine if you owe NEPA money, or you bypass light they will treat you like a criminal, bring police to oppress you.
· Yet, after YOU bought the poles, YOU contribute to fix the transformer when it spoils, it is THEM that collects the service fee for light they do not provide or service.

This is unfair! This is cheating! And we must stand as one to fight this injustice from all these big companies.

They use force to collect, but use excuses to deliver. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Here is what we must do TOGETHER:

1. UNITE & SPEAK OUT: This is a fight for all Nigerians who are tired of paying for darkness. Share your story everywhere.

2. TREND THE PRESSURE: Go to your social media platforms Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and FLOOD them with our demand. Use the hashtag:
#DemandBandACompensation
#LightWeNoSee

Tag them: @NERCNG @DisCos @GovtOfficial.

Tell them: "We are charged for what was promised, NOT for what we get. We demand compensation and accountability NOW!"

3. STAND YOUR GROUND: No more silence. When they bring threats, we bring our collective voice. When they bring bills for light not supplied, we bring evidence and our united refusal.

Copy this message. Share it everywhere. Let your family, friends, and neighbors know. Our unity is our power. Let's hold them accountable!

Everyone on Band A, gather here! Since November, the electricity supply has been bad and terrible. We are NOT getting the agreed minimum hours of power each day that we are paying a premium for.

Yet, they are still charging us Band A rates. This is unacceptable! We are paying for a promise they are not keeping.

So, here is what we must do: It is time to demand COMPENSATION.

For everyone who sees this message, I want you to go on any of your social media platform Twitter (X), Facebook, Instagram and POST.

Let’s make our voices heard. Use the hashtag:

#DemandBandACompensation

Tag the electricity distribution companies, the regulator (NERC), and relevant government agencies. Our message is clear:

We are being charged for what was promised, not for what we are getting. We demand accountability and compensation for the failed service.

Copy, paste, and post. Let’s trend this until they respond! Enough is enough.

Governor achievement commissioning busses.

Even God is Good motor. No dey commission busses wey him buy.

They should be started from the top And you start from the political appointees Then we elected leaders, Then so Called Pastor/ RELIGION Leaders. Then before Civil servants Then all students And the result should be made public on the ndlea website So when any organization wants to hire you they can actually just go on the website to check your previous drug results

I personally believe say this go make people fear to take drugs.

Make I talk true, I no even think this idea go work for Nigeria. Why?
Fact, check Nigeria wey we dey 85% of youth dey into one drug or the other.
And e no be by their choice! Na because dem get nothing to do with their time! No jobs, no opportunities, frustration full everywhere.

The biggest hypocrisy is that they wan test suffering civil servants, but you leave the people wey they make the law UNTESTED?




Na so person go just find small thing to calm his mind.

a painful reality in many places regressive systems that ask the most from those who can least afford it.

It's not just taxation it's being forced to pay twice. once officially, and again unofficially just to access what your taxes should already guarantee.

This is a call for accountability and equity at the most fundamental level.

Note this is just federal tax. We still have state&local governments

You buy a product. Already Taxed. 30% + 7.5VAT. =37.5.% addition

You go still pay personal income tax(2026) again. 30%

That to to say the government is taking 37.5% +30% = 67.5% [/b]from every [b]100% you have. Leaving you with. 32.5%

If dem dey regulate masquerade wey dey cause disorder, wetin about those "men of God" wey dey use Bible play magic, collect people money finish, or give them false hope? Abi dat one no fit cause mental and financial violence?

The law suppose to catch all of them equally! If any pastor or im follower dey do unlawful gathering, dey incite hate, dey defraud people, or dey cause public disorder, police too must arrest them. Na so e suppose be. Freedom of religion no mean freedom to use religion cheat people or cause problem for society.

Show me anywhere in this article that says the gun belongs to damasquerade??


You did not read the article and then the person that post the article have a narrative he or she wants to push

SpencerForbes:
These guys clearly went there for a community war, not a cultural display. I’m glad they were caught. The real shame is that they’re ruining the reputation for those who actually want to celebrate their heritage genuinely.

Oga Minister come dey list im achievement like say na trophy: 30 motor for border, renew Fire Service Academy, give Fire Service walkie-talkie, make N6bn for government, start e-visa and automated cards, launch new online portal for CERPAC, open Passport Centre for Abuja, introduce digital record system, launch ECOWAS biometric ID card, clear passport backlog and debt, and clear NIN modification backlogs. Plenty plenty talk.

(All Na Statistics, No Impact on Common Man)
But all this one na just paper work and figure wey no touch our everyday life. As common man, you still no see better job, passport processing dey delay, price of food still high, and insecurity dey everywhere. All this “digital this, digital that” no put food for table, no reduce suffering for street, and no make pesin feel safe for im own country. Na grammar, no be development wey dey meaningful.

Well said. Very meaningful

1st comment
When politicians freely change teams after an election forgetting that it was the party that was elected one the ballot paper not individual whether they won or lost they completely violate the trust of voters who ballot chose a party's platform, not just an individual. This renders the ballot almost meaningless, reducing governance to a selfish game of musical chairs rather than a sacred service to the people, and making a mockery of the very democracy that empowered them in the first place.

ST. LOUIS – U.S. District Judge Henry E. Autrey on Monday sentenced a Nigerian national to 41 months in prison for fraudulently obtaining a student visa and admission to the University of Missouri as well as a Social Security card, a driver license, a bank account and an apartment.

Mercy Ojedeji, 26, also participated in the money mule activities of Shirley Waller. Waller is serving a 93-month prison sentence after admitting aiding online scammers and committing pandemic and mortgage fraud. The government alleged that Ojedeji and Waller used a fraudulently opened bank account to funnel the proceeds of Waller’s criminal activities to Nigeria. A total of 193 packages were sent to the home Waller and Ojedeji shared, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office argued that the total intended loss of the pair’s activities was more than $1 million, based on the $94,150 contained in the 17 packages seized by law enforcement.

In a letter to Judge Autrey, one victim who lost $47,000 to the scam described being duped by a tale of a lonely, widowed orthopedic surgeon working in in a refugee hospital in Jordan. “It is a terrible shame there are such people existing to steal money from innocent victims such as myself,” she wrote. Another had their water cut off for a month due to non-payment after sending money to scammers.

Ojedeji pleaded guilty in April in U.S. District Court in St. Louis to one count of unlawful use of fraudulent immigration documents and one count of wire fraud. He admitted using counterfeit academic transcripts, recommendations, a resume and a report about his English language proficiency to obtain a student visa from the University of Missouri and admission to the chemistry PhD program in the fall of 2023. Ojedeji also obtained a stipend and a tuition waiver worth more than $49,000. Ojedeji presented his student visa and other documents to the Social Security Administration to obtain a Social Security card and used the fraudulently issued Social Security number and other documents to open a bank account. He also used the Social Security number and documents produced by his paramour, Waller, to rent an apartment. After Ojedeji failed to attend classes, his assistantship or join a research group, the university terminated him from the graduate program in January 2024. This also resulted in the termination of his student visa. On Feb. 26, 2024, Ojedeji used his fraudulently obtained and now invalid visa and other documents to obtain a Missouri driver license. The driver’s license was subsequently used to open the bank account through which he and Waller forwarded the proceeds of Waller’s money mule activities.

“The U.S. Postal Inspection Service is charged with defending the nation’s mail system from illegal use. With the collaborative efforts of our federal and local law enforcement partners, Postal Inspectors investigate fraudsters who utilize the U.S. Mail to perpetuate financial schemes to defraud others in order to enrich themselves. Postal Inspectors seek justice for victims, including those most vulnerable,” said Inspector in Charge, Ruth Mendonça, who leads the Chicago Division of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, which includes the St. Louis Field Office.

The U.S. Postal Inspection Service investigated the case, with the assistance of the FBI and the Town and Country Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Tracy Berry prosecuted the case.
