Suprises me that Daddy Freeze with his #Free TheSheepie movement will be hanging around this guy, maybe they were friends when the bling pastor Tobi was still living in Nigeria or Daddy Freeze got some help from him, I don't know. This his case is the Pro Max of whatever issues Daddy Freeze has with the way churches ask of money from their members.

I am I the only one thinking is like some weight checker. I mean the waistbeads are only seen if the girls wear short tops and if they gain weight, the waist beads won't fit them again.

Well deserved. He rehabiliated the road along the Catholic Church I attend, rehabilitated the road along the Pentecostal church I also attend, rehabilitated the road along the nearest market to my residence and re-tarred the road along my residence. He seems to have plans for the water issue, hopefully he will solve the water supply issue soonest.

Ha, I didn't know the bling bling pastor will be busted this fast.

Maybe this will be key to reduce sex trafficking in the country somehow. Since the government can now fully regulate the sex industry.

It is strange to say this but the days where South East and South South kidnappers demanded realistic ransoms from people that could afford it, was much better time in terms of security. Because ever since Northerners took up kidnapping, it has been unrealistic ransom amounts here and there and they are refusing to be logical up till now. How will a bus passenger afford N100 million?

Maybe you guys will finally take serious what the undercover journalist has to report, this time about what he uncovered about the oil bunkering activities.

Heard Bwala was a former APC member before cross-carpeting to PDP, so I guess it made a bit of sense since Tinubu knew him before.

Ever since Wike rigged Rivers State during 2023 presidential election, I just knew that INEC is officially open to manipulation especially at state level. Wike has given electoral malpractice expo.

They probably have collective amnesia. Person who insisted that disputed Jerusalem is Israel's capital and not Tell Aviv, is who they put their trust in. Maybe he will cooperate with both sides to end the war, but he is still fully Israel's ally.

.

I knew this guy was unstable. I just decided to wait and WALA! Back to his old self.

Lol. My short term goals is for Obi. Deji is free to continue comparing them, maybe we should try them all for at least a term until a very competent leader with good character emerges and displaces all of them.

I will pray on issues that are much harder to control eg. Insecurity, environmental disasters, disease outbreak, etc. But you see things like economy, education and infrastructure and amenities, I can't blame COVID for that one any longer and it is not like my prayers will make the big men in IMF and China to cancel our debt when our government is going to borrow again and waste a little part of it on frivolities and white elephant projects or that our government will be led by the spirit to appoint super competent people to lead important sectors in the country.

While I will commend his attention to workers' welfare, I have to criticize the fact that his people literally had to beg him before he started the road infrastructure drive is currently doing despite Ogun always having high IGR for a good number of years.

I don't understand some people sha. Stats is stats. The main thing is what you can infer from the stats . Example, from these stats above is your governor making the best use of the IGR he managed to get or has your state been electing governors that are good in building road infrastructure over the years?

I pity vandals that will steal cables belonging to Band A customers

Let him start small. Fingering first, let him perfect the fingering technique. Next will be intimacy gadgets, he should be the one to use intimacy gadgets on you and throughout those small starts, guide him how to satisfy you encourage him to try his best and boost his ego/confidence when he does well. With time, he may get confidence boost to want to try more like giving head or just be contented with the compromise if he can't.

Then prostrating and kneeling down to greet is satanic too. And kneeling down to be prayed on by a pastor is satanic too. All this extremist pastors looking for what to make a sin.

I listened to the song, what I can say is that the song is not made for Nigerian audiences, so they shouldn't be feeling entitled to it. The R&B overshadows the Afrobeat.

The article is quite long, so I only posted the parts related to my take on the story.

My Take: Dude respected himself and dug himself out of the deepening friendzone pit that might have made her not consider a second look at what he meant to her.

TWO HIKERS ENCOUNTERED A RATTLESNAKE. THEN THEY FELL IN LOVE

...Manny, who was single, wondered if his connection with Laura might have romantic potential. Then Laura mentioned her boyfriend.

“I was like, ‘OK, this isn’t going to go anywhere romantically, that’s fine. But I may have a new buddy to go with me to the climbing gym,’ ” recalls Manny.

“And then, at the end of the hike, when we got to the parking lot, Laura asked for my number.”

“I felt like we were vibing, but in a friendship way,” says Laura. “I didn’t know anyone who was a climber in LA. So it was just cool for me to meet someone who had the same hobby.”

The two hikers exchanged details, promising to meet up and climb together some time soon

Climbing together
Manny and Laura at sunrise in Canyonlands National Park in Utah.

Manny and Laura kept to their word and arranged to go climbing a few weeks after the snake brought them together.

Afterward, they went out to eat. One of Manny’s uncles owns a restaurant in downtown LA, and he took Laura there for her first taste of real Mexican cuisine.

“Mexican food is not very authentic in Austria,” says Laura. “So it was cool that Manny could show me that.”

It wasn’t long before the two met up again .

“And that’s when we started having really real, deep conversations,” says Manny. “It wasn’t something superficial.”

For Manny, it was during this second get-together, that the reality sank in.

“I began to realize, ‘I think I may catch feelings if I keep going with this friendship – and that’s not good, because she obviously has a boyfriend, and I respect that,’” he says.

So at the end of their second get together, Manny was candid with Laura.

“I was like, ‘Hey, it’s been cool hanging out with you. But, the more I get to know you, the more I realize that there’s potential for me to catch feelings. I respect that you are in a relationship, and I don’t want to be that person. I don’t want to be that guy. So I think we should just not hang out anymore.’”

It was, says Manny, “a little extreme” to cut off the friendship altogether. But he felt it was the right decision.

“I didn’t see it as anything other than a friendship,” says Laura. “I was really devastated, because I felt like we had a good connection. I’d finally made a good friend here, and he didn’t want to see me anymore.”

After that, Manny tried to consign Laura to the past. He figured he’d never hear from her again – that soon enough she’d be back living in Europe. He deleted her number from his phone.

Brought back together
Several months passed. Occasionally Laura and Manny thought about one another, both feeling a little sad about the friendship that could have been.

Then, in early March 2020, Laura visited her boyfriend – who lived elsewhere in the United States – and the two called it quits. Things between them didn’t feel right anymore.

“I came back to LA after visiting him and then two days later, the lockdown happened,” recalls Laura.

The coronavirus pandemic had hit. Now the United States was shutting its borders. Laura had to make a decision – return to Europe or wait out the uncertainty in California.

“A lot of my friends were other international students, and most of them had already gone back,” says Laura. “I really debated about going back home, because it was hard without family, and I didn’t really know what’s going to happen and how bad this was really going to be. … But something inside me was like, ‘No. I don’t want to give up yet. I feel like I worked so hard to build something here.’ ”

So Laura decided to stay in California. The first few months of pandemic life passed by, and she struggled with loneliness.

“I felt like I didn’t have any friends in LA, no one,” says Laura. “And then at some point I was like, ‘Wait, what about Manny? We had such a good connection.’ ”

It was late June 2020 when Laura dropped the guy she’d met on the hike a message.

“I didn’t text him with the intention of, ‘I want to get started with something,’” says Laura. “I was just really in need of a good friend.”

Even though Manny had deleted Laura’s number, when the message popped up, he guessed right away who it was from. He was surprised but intrigued. He wrote back right away.

“Then we talked a little bit,” Manny recalls. “I didn’t ask directly, but I’m thinking, ‘Maybe Laura and her boyfriend broke up?’”

Laura soon volunteered that information, explaining she’d been single for the past few months.

Manny wasn’t sure his feelings for Laura were reciprocated, but he figured he was now free to explore a friendship with her without guilt. The two continued texting back and forth, and Manny and Laura’s ongoing text conversation became a bright spot in both their days.

In one of his texts, Manny mentioned was planning a camping trip to Yosemite National Park over the upcoming July 4 weekend. When Laura mentioned she’d never been to Yosemite, Manny invited her to join him.

“I’ve been to Yosemite so many times,” Manny told Laura. “It’s the most beautiful place in the world, in my opinion.”

“I’d love to come,’ said Laura.

And so together, Laura and Manny drove from Los Angeles to Yosemite. Their goal was to complete the challenging El Capitan hike – ascending to the top of the national park’s famous granite rock formation.

“It’s a pretty intense hike,” says Manny.

The two set up camp, then embarked on the El Capitan trail.

“During that hike, that’s when we really connected again. We started talking, having those deep conversations that I’d really, really enjoyed with Laura before,” says Manny. “That really solidified for me that what I was feeling before, it wasn’t a misjudgment.”

Laura was also struck by the depth of conversation, by how much she enjoyed Manny’s company.

“It was such a connecting experience that I also was like, ‘OK, I guess I’m feeling something else other than friendship here too now,’” she recalls...

Ah!!! Rough person wey no dey take him mama play na who Speedy include inside insult. Wahala!

We live in a society where one has to let things slide or ignore some things so that there will be some sense of stability. The thing is that VDM doesn't let things slide or ignore certain issues eg religion. I guess that's the fresh perspective he gave to activism. And it comes off as excessive and sometimes unnecessary to the greater goal.

Look at me thinking Edo people will apply the same mentality that made them leave Oshiomole's APC and Obaseki's PDP and make Obi's LP win in their state during the last presidential election since Ighodalo of PDP exhibited a lot of Competence, Capacity and Character in the build up to the election. But alas, the sins of Obaseki affected PDP very negatively.

I am optimistic that the tough competition PDP and LP gives Edo APC will make Okpebholo not to be slow in giving good governance which will indeed benefit the people either way even if the most qualified candidate didn't win.
It's just like tough competitions like:
Enugu PDP from APGA, LP, APC
Anambra APGA from PDP,LP, APC
Lagos APC from PDP and LP,
Abia LP from PDP, APC, APGA
Ogun state probably needs this kind of heavy competition presently

Chai! At least LP won't be accused of dividing votes

Omo what pain me is not even that APC might be winning, but they might be winning with the dullest candidate around with barely any interviews except the BBC pidgin one, no debate attendance and clearly doesn't have the mental capacity for policy making. The standard of politicking in this country is slowly becoming low not to talk of standard of governance.

I thought Obidients were overreacting till I saw this her key points in an interview

I thought Obidients were overreacting till I saw this...her key points in an interview?!

All I see is bunch of politicians being civil in public. Being civil in public is a characteristic of an educated well trained human being. In the end they are all different based on their personalities and competency. It is up to you to choose either the compassionate one or the competent one or the one with integrity. PIDOM should hang in there, if he was doing what he was doing for politicians, it is common sense that he will be were they eat public money (government's side). Maybe if the two opposition politicians in the first pic form an alliance, he will get freed.

Picture of Sowore with Obi (for context)

Ikaeniyan0:
If he leak the US army schedule the way he leaked the Nigerian army schedule, he will spend at least 50 years in jail

Exactly, At least we didn't fall into the war trap like Ukraine and that is what counts.

How many times, LOL. Person wey dey chill for Ghana. Literally delayed a war till Nigerian government had sense by leaking army schedules, this new charges is a small thing.
