PoliticsRe: The NNPP Flag Has Been Removed From The Kano State Government House. by maivd: 11:37am On Jan 24
SouthSouth1914:
Enigma of what? Cajoling people into the evil party because of 2nd term. He hasn’t done anything with the first term, he is seeking reelection on what basis? Governors have no idea what they are doing. The north is drooling with these people at the center, and governors will be caught at crossfire.

There will be an implosion at the center very soon because of the way the ruling party is being run. Governance is being thrown out the window and the country is being run like a secret cult.
Park well, if he had joined ADC everywhere will be good but since it's the other way now tears have started flowing.

🤣🤣🤣 Bibles wey dem no go read... Funny enough if you have read Bible from the first page to the the last page, you will stop believing it.

Pastors are only riding on people's ignorance because most people only own a bible but don't read it..... Oya you reading my comment, have you read Bible from the first page to the last page? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
This answers your question. The bible was specifically referring to you and your likes.
John 8:44
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
PoliticsRe: Nma Odu: Court Restrains Rivers CJ From Receiving Impeachment Notice by maivd: 3:45am On Jan 17
BondRiv:
The current Chief Judge of Rivers State with the allegation of forgery dangling over his head is an embarrassment and shamelessly corrupt. In saner climes, he would be out of office and under prosecution. The man is a politician masquerading as a judge. By his conducts, he has consistently shown that he believes the judiciary is a department of the Executive Branch. He will end up prolonging this crisis. No governance without legislative inputs and checks.

The judiciary is not yet ready to be independent and taken seriously. In as much as the Chief Judge has chosen to be subservient to the governor and has developed the habit of begging at every public function, he should not interfer with the duties of the legislature. This is the worst administration in Rivers State. Fubara is a mistake.

I have gone through the grounds of impeachment. There is no way the governor escapes any panel without being found liable. The governor and his deputy are clearly guilty of gross misconduct. They can't defend it. That is why they are evading. The Supreme Court had already indicted Fubara as a despot.

The impeachment will proceed and be heard on its merits. If the Chief Judge won't perform his function, the lawmakers will proceed and set up the panel. That is the only option. They must perform their constitutional duty. If they impeach the governor and his deputy, let them go to the Supreme Court.
The ship has sailed,stop crying

LottiOk:
Would you say this if Wike was against PBAT like he was against late PMB⁉️

Would you say this if he had supported and made sure Obi won Rivers in '23 elections ⁉️

If you were Wike and you sponsored sim against the wishes of other politicians in Rivers only for him to betray you, to against the agreement you both had for you to make him govnor and even align with your political enemies,would you still make such statements ⁉️


I already know you won't give a honest answer but I hope if such a scenario ever plays out in your life and others are attacking you to let it slide like you are doing now. Remember this your post and maybe you'll know how Wike is feeling now.
Why are you sore ? Fubara weighed his options and took a part that would favour him. Wike will do the same thing without batting an eyelid.
Wike can't think and speak for a sitting governor who has decided to carve a future for himself.
Fubara must have played his cards right to have worked himself into wike's good books to become the governor, now he is taking a step further to rid himself from the shackles and you minions think he should be tied to wike's apron.

CelebritiesRe: I Need Husband - Princess Dami Begs Popular Men Of God (Video) by maivd: 10:22pm On Jan 13
dominique:
To each his own but no one should be tying their happiness or worth to any human being. Husband is good but having one or not should not define who you are, Princess Dami needs to understand this. The husband she married briefly out of desperation fled the marriage when he saw that she was not as rich as he expected and there was nothing to milk off her. Now she's out again broadcasting her desperation to the world and another hungry vulture will jump in to try and take advantage of her. Right now that her popularity with Nigerian men is at an all time low after exposing that pedophile Baba Ijesha, this is the wrongest time to be announcing that she's looking for husband.
Someone is in desperate need of a partner,but you here forming marriage counselor.
She has obviously tried to be strong on her own but later realize that she wasn't built like that,but you and your likes who don't see beyond your nose will come online and start typing trash you gain from social media experience.

PoliticsRe: New Tax Laws: 'You Misunderstood The Policy Intent' - Oyedele replies KPMG by maivd: 11:44pm On Jan 10
Konquest:
Succinctly put by Taiwo Oyedele.

Taiwo Oyedele has done a very brilliant job despite being a private sector business leader by explaining the newly harmonised Tax Reforms CLEARLY on podcasts and media appearances debunking all the fake news circulating on useless blogs and YouTubers looking for clickbaits and he does his explanations with simple anecdotes and in a calm voice.


Just for emphasis, about 90% of Nigerians who earn less than N100,000 monthly will NOT be involving in the PAYE (pay as you earn) according to Oyedele. He ALSO stated that VAT has been removed on medications, wheat for making bread and other essential items, therefore the price of bread is set to fall.

Already, I read 3 days ago online that due to the new Tax Reforms in Nigeria which started on January 1, 2026, MTN Nigeria has already reduced some of the rates they charge. Therefore other Telecoms providers would follow MTN's example.


What is needed is a "price watch mechanism" BECAUSE of the greed of many Nigerians in the informal and semi-formal sectors who inflate prices of transportation, food items and consumables BUT refuse to reduce the cost of food items when favourable reforms are introduced due to greed.

Last but NOT least, the Nigerian Governments at all levels MUST STOP being soft or lenient with ALL those who deliberately spread FAKE news reports and other forms of massive disinformation via YouTube channels and on crappy blogs. Enough of the misinformation. The same FAKE news for clickbaits and disinformation on YouTube channels occured when AJ had a horrendous Lexus SUV crash on his way to his Sagamu hometown in Ogun State with two of his close buddies, the British-Nigerian Latif "Latz" Ayodele and British-born Sina Ghami of Iranian descent.
If it looks good on paper and reality speaks otherwise,then it's useless. Oyedele and is co-travellers can't feel the impact,so they can afford to speak big grammar all day.

Some things never change. People chasing attention with nonsense. This river ritual craze is pure stupidity. Didn’t Portable do something similar, pouring plastic Fanta into a river for clout? People need better ideas than this foolishness.
Don't be dull and criticize people anyhow, Japan is the 4th richest country in the world. The level of idol worship in Japan is more than what we do in Nigeria. You will see malls as big as ShopRite at every corner and right next to it is a well nourished shrine, I mean in the open shrine no hiding like we do In Nigeria, go to companies, right there in the office reception you would see idol well positioned facing you out in the open.
But minions like you,just because you have access to a cheap phone and small data,you feel it gives you right to call people names.
I am not a fan idol worship and all,I am a christian but what this woman is doing is child's play to what happens in some advanced countries.
PoliticsRe: Did You Know This About The Entire Igbo Ethnicity by maivd: 1:02pm On Jan 08
ariesbull:
Entire Igbo towns have survived, upgraded, and modernized because their people left (Traveled abroad).

Not because of oil.
Not because of federal projects.
Not because of NGOs.

But because Igbo migrants abroad organized themselves and sent development home deliberately.

This is not remittance.
This is parallel governance.

What Actually Happened:
From the 1970s onward, as Igbo men and women migrated to:

•the United States
•the United Kingdom
•Germany
•Italy
•Canada
•South Africa
•Asia

they did not dissolve into individual survival.
They reassembled abroad as town unions.
Same village.
Same town
Same obligations.
Distance changed nothing.

While governments debated budgets, Igbo town unions abroad:

•built hospitals where none existed
•funded schools when public ones collapsed
•graded roads abandoned by state authorities
•installed transformers and water systems
•rebuilt markets and civic halls

In some communities, every functioning public structure traces back to diaspora funding.
No logos
No plaques
No donors’ conferences.
Just completion.

Why This Is Not Normal

Most migrant groups send money to families.

Igbo migrants sent money to villages.

They taxed themselves.
They fined defaulters.
They published accounts.
They commissioned projects publicly.

Failure to contribute was not “unfortunate.”
It was dishonourable.

This was not generosity.
It was duty enforced by culture.

The Part No One Talks About

In many towns:
•diaspora funded schools outperform government schools
•clinics built by unions are the only ones with drugs
•roads built by town unions are the only ones that last

Yet these projects appear:
•nowhere in development rankings
•nowhere in donor reports
•nowhere in national pride narratives

They exist outside recognition.

This is not about money.

It reveals a system where:

•leadership is collective
•accountability is social
•progress is expected, not praised

A people who can:
•self-tax across continents
•coordinate without a state
•deliver infrastructure without aid

are not underdeveloped.

They are under-recognized.

The Question That Should Unsettle Us

If a people can build:

•hospitals from Houston
•roads from London
•schools from Milan

Then what they lack at home is not intelligence.
Not work ethic.
Not capital.


Today in many Igbo villages senior citizens and old people are being paid stipends from #50,000 upwards by wealthy individuals,those that are poor, many homes are built and given to them at no charge, no tax, no mortgage while their kids are taken to be shown the ways to make money ...that's capacity building !

It is alignment. It is self love, it is live for the community and it is live for the ethnicity! It is a testament of those that love and believe in themselves!

And alignment has restored Igbo communities and still do

InvestmentRe: Can I Survive In Nigeria If I Make $10 Daily - My Wife Included by maivd: 12:14pm On Jan 08
Episode22:
Hello Nairalanders,

Please, I’ll keep this brief and straight to the point.

I need honest opinions and practical advice.
Can someone realistically survive in Nigeria on a daily income of $10?. I work from home.

If no, please explain why.

If yes, I’d appreciate a clear strategy—how to manage it, possible business ideas, and how one could grow beyond that income level.

For context, I currently earn $10 daily online from my blog, and on some days $13.

If this income is not sustainable in the long run, I genuinely want to know so I can plan better and make informed decisions.

Constructive advice only, please.

Moderators, kindly assist with visibility. Thank you.
1)Open a bamboo account, invest one dollar daily ( make sure you listen to Warren Buffett, Charlie Bunger, Peter Lynch etc before starting your investment journey)

2)Don't invest in Nigerian stock( if your US stock gains $1 that's 1500, if you buy Nigerian stock and it gains 1 naira it's still 1 naira)

3)Give one dollar a day to charity

PoliticsRe: No Governor Has Control Over APC – Yilwatda by maivd: 9:53pm On Jan 07
9jatriot:
Fubara thinks he is wise.Unstable elements like him should stay in their previous party. I am glad APC is beginning to come to their sense.

Fubara comes across as a treacherous, weak, and sycophantic individual. There’s just something about him that reeks of deceit. With Wike, for all his antics, you at least know where you stand.

Fubara, on the other hand, seems like a fickle-minded opportunist, willing to do anything to cling to power. He plays the role of a sycophant to get what he wants, only to turn his back once his goals are met.

During the campaign, he trailed Wike like a puppet, only to betray him shortly after assuming power. He went as far as demolishing the House of Assembly building in his lust for control and is even suspected of being involved in pipeline sabotage to maintain his grip on power. Such desperation disqualifies him from public office and the responsibility of leadership.

Reports suggest that, for the sake of peace, he was advised to abandon his second-term ambition—and he agreed. He was seen following Wike around during his ordeal, seemingly compliant. He didn’t have to agree; he could have made his case right then to continue his term, but he chose to accept the terms presented.

Yet, the moment he returned to office, he suddenly had the "brilliant" idea to join the APC—not because the president compelled him, but because he sees it as a springboard to regain power. Once again, he’s playing the fool, pretending loyalty to the APC until he secures what he wants.

Personally, I neither like nor trust individuals like him. He isn’t the first governor to turn against his former benefactor, but he’s the only one who makes such a spectacle of it. Even now, the governors of Kaduna and Kano have parted ways with their benefactors, yet they handle it without the same drama.

The APC needs to tread carefully with someone like Fubara. He isn’t joining the party out of a commitment to good governance or loyalty to the APC. If anything, he has proven himself untrustworthy and lacking in wisdom, both in his actions and his timing. They should learn from their experience with Obaseki. Once treacherous, always treacherous.

If I had to choose between Wike and Fubara, I’d trust Wike—flaws and all—any day. At least with Wike, you know what you’re getting.
