AcTHIEF.

Can Sanwo Olu ever get real and stop wearing the white man's suit?

It's better he wears his native buba attire and not look like some unnamed primate with asparagus-like shoulder tucked inside a pot.

Chai.

I always like when Croatia meets a country like Italy or Portugal.

You know major upset is in the making.

I don't support any President that supports LGBTQ rights.

Film can't melt my heart. I just don't know why I find movies boring this days. there was a time I liked India films, but now I find them annoying. When I was younger, I still use to manage to watch Nigerian movies but now I don't even think I can even start it. Same goes for Hollywood movies, I just find them so boring this days. I think I am weird.

You're not weird.

You've simply grown older and mature.
I'm sure your taste must have developed towards some other interests.
And in anyway, the average movie(s), these days; lack depth and core matter.
I'm sure you've a higher IQ but don't know it.

How I hated cabin biscuits.

I thank God I never put that dry plank in my mouth.

Johncuppa:
It is not just annoying the nonsense these people are doing, seeing young people defending this course, especially on nairaland that you think it's a forum for the intellectuals is really disturbing.
So pathetic.

My brother, I actually come to this forum with the intention of posting comments that could shine the light for our younger ones but lately, I'm thinking that's a fruitless cause.

It's a waste of time. So sad.

Misplaced priorities.

A nation with confused, empty headed leaders.

Other nations are occupied with ideas to combat concrete problems on the ground, exploring alternative cleaner energy solutions in place of fuel or future gains of AI and whatnot and here, we've these imbeciles thinking about the wordings of the national anthem.

It's just so very sad.

I'm even surprised these sellers still make that funny mound on top. Very soon, they will start leveling the "paint" with all seriousness.

Thank God for the mirrors wey full Aso Rock...that woman for there actually has TABLE YANSH.

Third world country. Smh.

You should have asked what's the value of Naira in the equation?

There's always some funny but very troubling turbulence over that Mediterranean axis just out of Egypt airspace.

The last time I flew over there in 2007; I knew something like this will happen someday in the future.

It can really shake your soul out of your body!

They're better off with a white man or woman o.

The black man has no business with sound economy management.

LeeSmart:
Lie small small now bros😆

I'm not lying at all.

I'm a member of some international artists club and I've friends who are Iranians.

I've an iranian friend and she says majority of its citizens are presently jubilant and wished all their govt officials were in that crash.

These drinks introduced DIABETES to the Nigerian 80s youth generation.

You forgot SUNSWEET. It was a blend of crush and Fanta, sold for 20 kobo or so between 85 and 86.

Vanished in 89.

Stanleymaster1:
Peter obi is a good man

Unfortunately, Nigerians don't like nor respect good people.

Long years of military rule comes with an unconscious disdain for the good man.
He is seen as soft or weak. That's why in every small Nigerian circle, you will notice that people easily gravitate towards the mean spirited fellow; looking up to him as a leader figure. But, that's infantile.

You can see how the root system of our leadership culture came to be in contemporary times.

It will be hard for Peter Obi to assume that mantleship.
It's sad but that's the truth.

If Nigerians can't use the reaches of SM or Tiktok to coordinate a flawless revolution in these times...forget it.

It won't ever happen if it can't happen now.

Fake guy.

They're telling you what you want to hear because they know you're Nigerian (You sound Nigerian)

They will tell a kenyan interviewer same thing he wants to hear.

This reminds me of when Daniel Amokachi bought a jet after some million dollar club contract.

No be person tell am to sell am.

Bahamas95:
The last time I sat down to watch a full Nollywood movie was back in the days of Genevieve, Rita Dominic, Sandra Achums, Grace Amah, Kate Henshaw, Ramsey Noah etc......I don't know majority of them nowadays.

Don't feel bad about it.

Time has passed and its a new era.
Obviously you're in your 40s or 50s.

The 90s Nollywood made quality productions, no doubt.

" His friend who LENT him money"

Nairaland mods and Naija English be like 5 and 6.

SeriouslySense:
I observed how Indians will cook together take care of themselves, share with each other and advise each other i never observed fighting or drama. Very organized, composed and show decency. (I know Indians fight amongst themselves in their country but they act wisely and talk wisely outside their country, and they have wise stories, they always talk about, from their history and traditions.)


When i tried to associate with Nigerians it feels like i am being probed and its just unnecessary stress. Some are loud lousy and like fighting all the time, others are weird and feel like they are better than others. its better to just avoid unnecessary drama. Life is too short for self centred selfish ones.

It's a general problem.
More tragic is, more and more of the wider world know this.
And that's why, in some instance, while introducing yourself, it's wiser to omit saying you're a Nigerian at first because you'd be instantly classified and held in that light of what you and I speak of.
It's best to let your character speak for you first and until such a time when you disclose your nationality, they'd be like, " You're lying etc"

From experience, it serves you best for them to feel unsure of your nationality than to know where you're truly from...y'know, there's a way folks treat a snake in the house even if it's deemed harmless.

They like burials than resurrection

I did not regret avoiding Nigerians once i realized i can have good friends from other countries.

My brother, na valid observation I make o. Lol.

Most young folks don't even understand the genesis of all this Israel/ Palestine problem here.

First of all, what stops Israel from allowing a Palestinian statehood?

That's what Hamas has been asking for from the onset.

Israel took their land, making little room for the Palestinian population; and when they agitate, you call them terrorists.

If you want to stay sane abroad, do your best and keep more to yourself.

Regardless of nationality etc, if you want to mingle; chose your friends wisely and of course, chose like.minded individuals like yourself.

If you're a noisy person, go to nightclubs or the stadium; you will find your people there.

If you're a nerd, go to the library more or IT clubs.

One of the worst expectations you'd have is to expect peace and serenity in the company of 70% Nigerians abroad.
Drama. Major drama comes with the package.

Nigerians can't help you much with information needed for your growth or help you when you're down or help you keep some sh.t off in advance etc

But...if you want to bury someone? You can count on their assistance.
I don't know what it is but, from experience; they like burying people than resurrecting them.

That bachelorhood enjoyment is fleeting as its immature and deceptive.

Get carried away on it and watch your time pass you onto old age with nothing to show for it.

And when you look around, you'd find out that those old, fun mates you called girlfriends by then are verily settled longtime in their own homes with grown up kids.

Then, you'd realize what's called a phase...and, it passed you by.

Grow up.

Nobody gets a medal by partying nonstop or how many p.ssy you fk or all that.

That's a grand smokescreen meant to deceive you.

The greatest blessing onto any man is to discover his love on time, marry her, have kids with her on time and enjoy the fruits of your family in your old age...

Because, old age is a certainty.

CluelessMODS:
You wan fuvk Bobrisky ni?

Lol.

Una own no dey pass that imagination.

How can you move forward in a country that's moving backwards on auto drive?

Anyway, any update on Bobrisky?

These are the sort of encouraging, educative posts you mods shouod be posting on your platform more often, to enrich minds more positively.

Not Japa this or Meet one non entity or DNA test news.

Only sound education can liberate the country.

Something has to happen...Something has to happen.

Nigerians love speakers, not doers.

That's why things have remained as they were despite the passage of 30 mthrfkn years.

Everyone will articulately express why Something has to happen but won't join hands to make it happen.

Siddon look.

Nigeria is long overdue for a revolution.

That's what's supposed to happen.

If it doesn't happen? The next 100 years or 2000 years to come will be like news of the past 30 years, again recycled.

These are the problems.

I admire Umahi and his efforts but he's still a part of the problem.

When you trivialize every issue or moment that has the potential to affect lives, especially as Nigeria stands now; then, you're part of the problem.

Instead of him to address the question, he chose to turn it into a comic session/relief.
What's even "phoney" about the girl's speech pattern?

She sounded strongly feminine, bold and smart.

That's commendable and attributes which some of our journalist turned journey men politicians like Abike lacked at her age when all she did was cover any first lady's pet project.
