Nigerians are funny, the way some are eulogising the plate, because he is abroad, you’d not think Nigerians used to play football with crabs, prawns and crayfish, since these were mainstays of our soups and many dishes, quite common and unremarkable.

This why education is relivant, it is not grass sir it is vegetable.. Go to school I won't went.

He knows the difference; he was playing with imagery, selecting the word Grass as a form of colloquial evocation for the humour. It's what Nigerians often do with English language and is related to pigeon...

HallaDaTruth:
How will there be any report, when the evil buhari threatens any media organisation in Nigeria that tells the truth. Do you know how many journalists are threatened daily. Fulanis are heaping curses upon themselves for their atrocities. In future, when calamities start befalling them and their children, up to the unborn generations, let them remember this days. Are you saying that you are not seeing the numerous videos made by victims of their heartless vicious attacks. The blood of all their dead victims will speak against them eternally. Very wicked satanic heartless soulless people

Nigeria military, president, secret police, tanks, jazz - nothing will stop Western press from reporting anything on Nigeria should they choose. Only thing that would stop them are none-events. Even if you tried to exploit their natural racism towards black people and keenness to report negatively on Africa and black issues, they will not respond unless significant truths exist that would be worth their time and expense recoupable by broadcasting that news internationally without risk of accusations of false or unfounded reporting.

HallaDaTruth:
You and all terrorists fulanis need to be arrested and prosecuted for all the people you have killed from the days of usmad dan polio till now. May the blood of all fulani victims be upon the heads of all fulanis and you. Heartless people that are more wicked than the devil

Why are there no reports on these mass Fulani killings in Nigeria in the Western media - no documentary, nothing on print, no nothing? The West covered reports on the so-called Leki Tollgate deaths. What does this glaring omission suggest?

Western media are always keen to publish negative stuff on Africa and will jump on any unfolding events to broadcast them to the World, even embellishing things and adding lies. Even small Leki-toll-gate CNN reported but all this massive Fulani killings, nothing?

Someone - especially you believers in the West and all things oyibo - please explain something: all these killings by so-called Fulani in Nigeria, why has the West not once done a documentary on it? There was a documentary done on the Fulani Dogon conflict in Mali, showing the massacres and counter massacres perpetrated on each side by each side. The killings in Nigeria dwarfs those of Mali if the unrelenting reports of Fulani killings on Niraland are true.

Why are there no reports on these mass Fulani killings in Nigeria in the Western media - no documentary, nothing on print, no nothing? The West covered reports on the so-called Leki Tollgate deaths. What does this glaring omission suggest?

HallaDaTruth:
The earlier we start planning to kill all fulanis, the better for us. Death to all fulanis. Murder them at sight

You need to be arrested and prosecuted.

Karlovych:
Imagine the guts these cretins have, I pity the soft SS and SE governors that take this issue lightly like their Ewedu and Amala counterparts especially the one in Ekiti

You people are stupid in that your troll house.

Truthshots23:
Some people lack the ability to use their mind but believe they are leaders of thought. I am not going to wait for your undeveloped minds to finally catch up with the global average.

So, when are you leaving us underdeveloped lot to get on with our inferior musings on military matters?

A source, who pleaded not to be mentioned, told our correspondent that one of the hoodlums identified as Imo Udo, was arrested while others escaped with bullets wounds.

Sounds familiar and, well, we can’t cry marginalization on this one – equal opportunity gun shot and limping off terrorists




But, yeah, no laughing matter; may the innocent caught up in all theater of stupidity throughout the realm, RIP

Workch:
[s][/s] you don’t have potable water dude, you store borehole water in tanks, that’s not a quality lifestyle.

An average Nigerian lives like an animal and he’s comfortable with it.

Borehole water is often healthier and fresher than reservoir pipe-born water. Actually many of that, which exists in Nigeria now, due admittedly to government failure, are becoming increasingly like what the so-called first world nations will adopt. Things like decentralized power systems ( generators/solar) even the farming of insects like locusts as alternative means of feeding the worlds growing population in better more environmentally friendly and sustainable ways than beef and sheep. Many in the West are embracing bicycles when a few decades ago they mocked and looked down on the fact that the major mode of mass Chinese transport was the common bicycle.


We need to be less simplistic in the way we view what so-called "Development" means and more critical in the way we view current Western model of progress. And as I never tire of trying to make Nigerians see, we, as developing nations, can be the pioneers of Development and Progress since we do not yet posses established infrastructures.

No such thing as halitosis apparently. If you’re not suffering from tooth abscess, you regularly brush your teeth and yet suffer as you’ve described, then do this following two things any you’ll not suffer bad breath: drink at least 2litres of water every day and slush your mouth every other day with diluted hydrogen peroxide.

Diluted hydrogen peroxide kills bad-breath dead!


P.S

Eh, don’t overdo the Hydrogen peroxide thing o ; actually, once a week might do it. Diluting ratio = always more parts water than hydrogen peroxide.

joyandfaith:
Going by your explanation. From normal distribution curve, it is expected that 5% of populations are not within normal range. It can be assumed 5% of 7.6 billions would love to be in bondage. They would love their oppressors.
There must be freedom of speech and mechanism should be put in place to identify and punish any individual would abuse that freedom. Government should strength public institutions in this regard.

Majority of these platforms, systems, or even networking websites were made for communication, research and profit, especially the later ones, not freedom of expression although exploiting freedom of expression when and where it can be had.

joyandfaith:
If I am wrong,then you are saying humans hate freedom.

Actually, since there are approximately 7.6 billion people in the world it wouldn’t be ridiculous of me to claim millions of people do not like freedom. This type of persons wouldn’t know what to do with freedoms entrusted on them by myriad of circumstance in the world. Some of these types of persons regularly join the military looking for regimented and or structured existence. And unless you argue that some wars caused by incursion of one force into the territory of another due to scarce resources is same as looting in order to Free the people represented by the aggressor government, then a good many wars aren’t about freedom. Not to mention the efficacy of Freedom concept in relation to differing perceptive.

joyandfaith:
Most social media are built on fundamental of human existence - freedom and liberalism. Humans love freedom and that is the reason wars are being fought. Any platform that will not guarantee freedom of expression is likely pro-government and any platform without bias for people will make people to jettison such platform.

It is now people v governments in many lands with social media on the side of the people.

You're wrong in nearly all that you've stated here. I qualified with Nearly only in case I’ve missed something.

Truthshots23:
The nigerian military is all propaganda, no power, no competence except fear. It looks more like a terrorist organisation than a real military.

I'm sure you're hopeful that they will get better and become that professional fighting force that many claim they are right now but you believe they aren’t.

Uyi168:
...
Ok.
Meanwhile,
If the incidence of Christian eriksen had happened in Nigeria, he would have been with angel michael by now.

They will try to 'rush' him to hospital.
No CPR, no fibrillator, no nothing.
They will just be pouring water on his head

Loads of young African footballers have died on the football fields of various European clubs. But I guess the way you see things you’d say those footballers would’ve died quicker had it been Nigeria.

Why I'm I looking at this picture differently and what to do .

Let me check if my Vaseline still remain first .

You be Simian? because, as I dey seem am so, the style wey the pic dey suggest is only possible from low hanging tree branch

Well, monetarily counter recruit spies to spy on Boko. I’m sold on the idea Babagana Zulum would know how to do this without unreasonably endangering the lives of the counter spies due to Babagana Zulum’s apparent ability to acquire info from these terrorists unavailable to other governors.

Ghana's president plants one of five million trees


Ghana's President Nana Akufo-Addo has planted a tree in the capital, Accra, as part of a plan to put five million trees in the ground across the country in a single day.

The Green Ghana Project is supposed to become an annual event and aims to reverse the process of deforestation.

It has been going on across the country's 16 regions and everyone from school children to judges have been taking part, the BBC's Thomas Naadi reports.

The focus has been on people planting trees in places where they can easily maintain them, Hugh Brown from the Ghana Forestry Commission told the BBC.

In other words, people have been encouraged to put the saplings in the earth in their homes or in places like school, college and church compounds

Buhari Must Go is okay but waiting for elections would be better for Nigeria's fragile democracy. The “Revolution now” aspect is unnecessary and smacks of schoolboys enthused by having just discovered Carl Max or something. It also reminds me of Nigerians’ fondness for cure-all slogans such as “Democracy, Democracy!” which you all used to shout during military rule and claimed would solve all ills. Then it became, “Rotational Presidency, Rotational Presidency!!!” Now it is “Revolution,Revolution!” or “Brake Up this country,Brake Up this Country!!!”

If we want a better Nigeria, few things will beat hard work, honesty, putting others first and Long Term thinking!

Since Nigerians are so fond of dogs, someone needs to create a dog breed for Nigeria.

In my teens my brothers and I attempted just this, using local dogs. After many mixes and matches, out of one particular litter stood out a pup. It grew to be a dog with short hind legs and tall front ones. It had dark mottled coat and a head that looked like one of those Egyptian dogs depicted in statues – anubis I believe. Oddly, the other puppies from the same litter didn’t possess same features as it did. The dog liked to climb walls like another dog we used to own that appeared one day in our yard and became our pet.

In the end, the idea of developing our own dog breed faded because there were so many business opportunity available in Nigeria we could never persevere with any one idea.

p.s

Actually, come to think back on it, the stray that we adopted was very much like that Anubis. It was pitch black, tall and had short coat (the Egyptian dog on which the statues are based are hairless). The dog had long tapering legs, moved fluidly and carried on like a king. It had the habit of lying on one of the walls of my father’s house in the exact pose of the Anubis statue. Anyway, same way it appeared in our lives was same way it disappeared. Very odd.

Tycoon dubbed Britain's answer to Elon Musk set to become a billionaire when his flying taxi start-up floats in New York

By Matt Oliver For The Daily Mail

A tycoon dubbed Britain's answer to Elon Musk is set to become a billionaire when his flying taxi start-up floats in New York.

Stephen Fitzpatrick, 43, founded Vertical Aerospace in 2016 and will see his stake valued at more than £700m when it lists on the stock market. He also owns a £600m stake in energy giant Ovo, which he founded, taking his overall wealth to well over £1billion.

He is a former banker and Conservative Party donor who has been likened to Tesla boss Musk.

Britain’s Elon Musk: Stephen Fitzpatrick founded Vertical Aerospace in 2016 and will see his stake valued at more than £700m when it lists on the stock market

The Belfast-born businessman started Ovo in 2009 and led the firm through a takeover of rival SSE, Britain's second-biggest supplier, a decade later. At a London party to mark its tenth birthday, compere Lauren Laverne claimed Ovo was 'hoping to redefine the limits of human progress'.

Vertical Aerospace, which counts Rolls-Royce and American Airlines among its backers, is set to float in New York by reversing into a special purpose acquisition company (Spac) in a £1.6billion deal.

The Bristol firm is developing electrically-powered aircraft, which take off and land vertically, designed to travel almost silently at cruise speeds of 200 miles per hour, carrying four passengers.

So far Vertical has orders for up to 1,000 aircraft from Avolon and American Airlines, worth around £2.8billion. Europe's top regulator said last month the region could see the first flying taxis enter service by 2024, with Vertical set to begin test flights later this year. The deal is expected to close in the second half of 2021.
