Disrupt?

Many of you will be humbled after election!


Hello, Obi wont win once if elections were conducted a thousand times!


Let me tell you one bitter truth! Even if all Nigerians vote for Peter, he wont still win! Its that certain!


Himself and party too little to face the a ruling party and a candidate like Asiwaju!

Stop using emotions to anticipate. Be truthful to yourself when it matters the most! That`s a skill that can make you very successful!

"Let me tell you one bitter truth! Even if all Nigerians vote for Peter, he wont still win! Its that certain!"

This caught my attention, this simply connotes that vote will not count as you opined. BVA have given Nigerians hope that vote will count (if used).

[quote author=Boldkrammy post=119964158][/quote]I'm in the North, i have been here for a while and I have been to over 15 states in the North; i know how they vote, they will go to any length during election.

I'm not against PO, he is energetic and vibrant but truth remains that presidential election WILL be won and lost in the North. BAT is fully abreast of this, that's why he is doing everything to have the North.

NB: if this election will be free and fair, APC as a party will be shocked because Nigerians are suffering. Furthermore, anyone saying that only Igbos are supporting PO lied.

Boldkrammy:
This is the exact problem. Tribe, tribe tribe. All of us go buy the rice and pay for th fuel, wetin concern Tinubu and Obi? Our choice our future!

I hate tribalism with passion but tribalism and religion is what determines how Nigerians vote.

In terms of security and economy, APC failed woefully. I move round North East/West as a result of the nature of my job; the killings in the North have been carefully covered. I won't talk about the economy because everyone buys from the market.

BAT may have good intention but he can't and has not been campinging with APC legacies but his days as a governor of Lagos state.

I personally have not been feeling bad about the whole thing but what i spent on flights and other expenses have depleted my savings. Everyone should vote wisely come February 25th.

If you are unemployed or Underemployed; Stop Sitting at Home;
Consider this

A lot of people have reached out to say it is difficult to get a job without having an influential connection, I totally disagree.

The problem is most of us sit down and expect jobs to come to us.

Employers don't owe you any jobs

See below Strategies that may help your job search;

1. Don't sit at home , move round, attend events

2. When you meet people, do not just greet them and leave, make a connection by striking a conversation and do not be shy to say you need a job.

3. Nurture the connections you make and keep in touch.

Don't expect that once you tell someone once you need a job, they ll always remember.

Keep in touch and don't be a nuisance.

Most people prefer text messages.

4. Do unsolicited visits to companies- A lot of mid sized businesses need employees and they will be willing to hire you.

5. Be well dressed as you move around.

Don't because you are unemployed look tattered and unkept, no employer wants an untidy employee. There are a lot of cheap options.

6. Volunteer, do internships even if the pay only cover your transport & feeding.

Offer to work for free rather than sitting at home. No experience is a waste.

7. Looking for a job is a full time job, so give it your best. Don't be tired of applying for jobs in 2023

I wish you all the best in your job search

Learn a handiwork, a graduate should not be ashamed to learn how to repair phones/ laptops or software.

I know a graduate who learnt how to repair phones for 6/7 months, he saves at least 5k everyday after his daily expenses. It certainly not enough but it's better than not doing anything at all.

To dress well, attend events, meet people requires money hence an unemployed graduate may find it difficult to cope. Here in FCT, phone/laptop technicians around Emab/Banex are doing well.

Iloveu778:
Lmao
You really said the real thing, the thing is, I am really aware of everything you said up there,NOT like I want to date any girl.
I just want to use it to build my confidence in approaching ladies.
Thanks for the input

Good day, that which he gave you is not a good advice and you are already thanking him...

You only want to build your confidence and not ready to date but you went toasting a girl...

Please look out for a girl who is interested in you (you will know via her excitement and happiness around you); start from her, she will not disgrace you even if she doesn't want to date you. As an introvert, the best option is to start with someone who appreciate you, thank you.

Dead Goat = Pele
Living Goat = Messi

I'm grateful that you know the meaning of "GOAT" in this context; it's only one and not more than one. Pele is the GOAT.

Tumblr:
If you watch Nunez clips on YouTube, you’ll think he’s the best ever human to kick a ball.

Pele wasn’t even the tournament MVP nor the top goal scorer in all the World Cup he won. Winning the World Cup at 17, a team achievement, doesn’t make you the greatest

You think it’s irrelevant because you don’t have a point.

Please fallback at FIFA, FIFA declared, i didn't ok, recently FIFA instructed all member county to name one of their known stadium after Pele (Google it), FIFA didn't do that to Diego Maradona.

Messi only won one world cup and it's not a team achievement but his personal achievement. Once again, FIFA decides and they did so fallback at FIFA, thank you.

Tumblr:
You and I didn’t watch Pele play, but we’ve seen Messi play.

If you compare their career stats individually and with their teams, Messi’s achievements dwarf that of Pele.

I don't argue on issue like this because it's irrelevant. At age 17, what Pele did to Sweden is still there, the clip and other exploits are there. Messi is good but because World cup is ahead of UEFA champions league and other tournaments, Messi is still far below Pele, please confirm from FIFA, thank you.

Winnin009:
But let’s be factual; what puts Pele ahead of Messi?

Just national team glory?! There’s more to football that just playing for your nation, or what do you think?

You call it " a national team glory?" Escobar was killed after he mistakenly scored an own goal in the so call "national team glory."

That "national team glory" comes once in four years and a country like Nigeria where we have over 200 million citizens; anyone who adorn the nations jessy at that level will definitely tell you that he has been at the highest level.

Winnin009:
No problem but Ronaldo is under Messi as far as that’s concerned.

Two World Cup finals; won one!

Ronaldo was dropped for his last World Cup match for under performance. That’s quite shameful bro.

I'm not a Ronaldo fan, Messi have been ahead of Ronaldo and Ronaldo always try to catch up with Messi.

I just felt uncomfortable when some people sees Messi as being ahead of Pele, it's absurd to say the least, thank you.

Fira09:
That's his biz.

This is what matters most

So you know that World cup is what matters most and you still compare Messi to Pele?

Thank you for affirming what matters most, Pele remains the undisputed GOAT, FIFA already confirmed that.

Hunter0007:
Seems like someone has put you in poverty with the way you kept wailing all over nairaland daily

Hahahaaa!!! You no get joy at all!

Reinaldo:
Ehn... nothing spectacular about leading your country to win a world cup at only 17 as a black man in those days? Nothing spectacular about being the only man to win 3 world cups. You don't know anything about football. Just change to basketball or table tennis please

Your list even shows you're indomie generation. Why did I even waste my time replying.

To him, UEFA champions league is higher than world cup. Messi only have one world cup and the noise is something else, what happens if he wins it again?

Because world cup is ahead of every other tournament, Pele is still ahead of others.

Igbo people fighting Nigerians by beating themselves.

The young lady is Igbo, she is not fighting Nigeria. I and many other Igbos are not fighting Nigeria. Do yourself and Nigeria a favour by not generalizing, you may think that you are hurting Igbos and doing Nigeria a favour but you are not, thank you.

MadamExcellency:
There is no way Dr Okezie Ikpeazu will win Enyinnaya Abaribe in the 2023 Senatorial contest. Take that to the bank.

In 2015, Abaribe rigged Chris Nkwonta out via withholding the result sheets, while Ossy Prestige (late, APGA house of Rep) cost home convincingly, there was no results sheets for the senatoral election hence it's rigging.

If Ikpeazu employ such measure against Abaribe come February 2023, Abaribe will stand no chance at all. All politicians have parochial/personal interest.

Tokskob2008:
Lol.....

I would said he is one lucky dude if the girl in question happens to be his girlfriend (she might have a clean heart who knows) but even at that he will still have to thread carefully not to fall into the pit but from just a "normal" friend, that's definitely a setup!

She is damn too desperate..

In this part of the world, it's believe that a man MUST propose to a woman hence the tagged "desperation." In the West, it's a normal thing (my bossom friend living at Athens married a woman who proposed to him and they are happy with 2 kids).

I personally didn't see it as desperation but i suggest that he thread carefully. I know someone whose pay comes in hard currency; infact when changed to Naira, it's like times 15 or more of what i receive but i didn't talk to her, she was interested in me despite all other men flaunting around her, she sent someone and the person intimated me; we are good friends now but not lovers.

Some ladies are genuine with their intention but in delimer over how to go about it because of our culture/believe and fear of the unknown. Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year.

Corrinthians:
So all those who spoke to the correspondents are Yorubas or paid by Yorubas.

Ekpa fall on you.

If you like, show us dogshit, the truth remains most Igbos are now scared of going to igboland for fear of being killed or cannibalised by their own brothers.

This same falsehood was padded last year but ppl traveled (myself included) and nothing happened. No killing, no harassment, no intimidation etc from unknown gunmen/IPOB.

This Christmas, you guys have started again and will still fail. Transportation fair is the major cog in the will of those who will likely stay back and not IPOB activities.

I encourage you to concentrate on more important things and not Christmas celebration in Igbo land, thank you.

Worriedwife:
This has notin to do with Lola being d bad one. People shouldn’t make it a tribal argument. The fault is from Paul. The women are not the problem here. If Paul didn’t go sleeping with the maid, everytin would be fine.

His brother and Lola are still in good terms with Anita, that shows she is a good person.

It is d new girl I feel pity for. Not like Paul would do her anything bad as he seems to love her, but she would have a hard time penetrating the strong bond Anita has formed with Peter and Lola. It doesn’t help that she is very young. She would just be there with only Paul and it gets boring. Marriage in Nigeria includes d family.

I don't support infidelity and no one should support that but it's quite unfortunate how some ladies throw caution to the wind when it comes to "musicians." Many of our musicians have several baby mamas and it's becoming a "norm."

I was an undergraduate when a particular star came for a show in my school, some girls were willing to pay just to be with him. I won't generalize but some of our women will comfortably open their legs for a musician for whatsoever reason (s) known to them, this is bad.

https://www.nairaland.com/870945/what-exactly-peter-obi-doing/5#113707970

Go through the above link to read, 2012 report from Igbos and Anambra people about Peter Obi, and see it yourself, that the recent report about his competence is deceit and only shalow researchers will believe in all the lies.

Good evening, i went through the link, it was a Nairalader questioning about PO's achievement in Anambra and not a detailed facts on how he mismanaged Anambra's resources.

Having said that, i must tell you the truth, Anambra is the best in the entire South East and far better than many states in Nigeria today; PO led the foundation of the modern Anambra we see today. PO is not perfect but the man did well in Anambra state (politics aside).

DoMeGood09:
I broke up with my girlfriend three months ago. The major reasons were

1. She’s lazy.
2. She doesn’t know her to cook.
3. She isn’t romantic.
4. She likes clubbing.
5. She’s moody.

Yesterday, her friend chatted me up online and asked me if I was still interested in the relationship. I replied no. Then, she asked if I liked her, I responded no. But we can be friends. Ever since then, she’s been calling me. Hope she’s not trying to fall in love?

It's quite unfortunate how you describe your ex girlfriend, relationship is all about learning and adapting to new/better ways of life.

Your ex girlfriend will not describe herself like you did and may not say such of you. She is your ex and "definitely" with someone now.

Please stop talking ill of people in the public because good/genuine ladies will see this as a red flag. If you want to date her friend, do but be mindful of the implications.

Argentina

Messi must cement his legendary status

Despite all the big names at PSG, he didn't win champions league and he will now win world cup with Argentina; bookmark this comment, Argentina may not play semifinal in this world cup.

bestdudes:
Lmao.. you are funny. So point out where I made a mistake and the girls are not at fault?

Did I ask them for sex or ask them for anything? What will it cost a grown-up adult to be decent in their engagement? At my age? At my age, I would leave any girl alone as soon as I see any indecent attitude or red flag.

Maybe you are the kind that tries to convince yourself that "it is not a problem, continue to try your luck and gets disrespected even further"

Gerrraheree mien

The first lady, you were with her on twitter for over one year just chatting with her and after a "whole" one year (as you said) you decide to get serious with her.

Please stop wasting your time because genuine/committed ladies are always sensitive but will expect you to do the needful, that's all for now.

omotoshodontee1:
the boy dick is sweeter Dan urs,she now find sexual pleasure from him..ur marriage is in big mess cos once a girl is dickmatized,nah only God fit undicmatized her...sorry bro

Ireportlive:
Gatuso, Oliver Khan, Vidal, Ramos


Haaa!!!

Vidal, Ramos and Gatuso were thorn in the flesh of many strikers.

rusher14:
I would make Diego Costa the captain then watch what would happen.

Diego Costa over Gatuso?

mbaboy:
Reasonable demands kudos to PDP

They already done the damage, they are only changing their tactics so that it will seem as if they are committed to PDP.

The greatest beneficiary of this crisis is BAT and if Atiku will win, he must win convincingly (with a wide margin) in the North

Freestainworld:
Wike's place is a very comfortable kirikiri after his tenure

Good morning, no Nigerian politician is genuine in their dealings and Wike is not an exception to that but one thing is obvious; there is money in Rivers state, Amaechi toe this same lane during 2015 elections.

ThierryJay:
I was not the one comparing them. Between 02 and 06, global pundits on Espnsoccernet, Four four 2 and other renowned sport tabloids regularly compared them. Note that it was the post-2001 Ronaldo they compared him to. Pre-injury R9 was obviously on a different level to Prime Henry. So maybe Etoo is also comparing himself to post-2006 Henry.

Eto can't be compared to Henry and Henry won't be compare to R9, the difference is clear.

phemmyfour:
Eto is on fresh smoke

When they are envy of your achievement.....they start making unreasonable comparison

Anelka was a lazy striker...no wonder he struggled when he left Arsenal .

Thanks to Chelsea that gave him a soft landing

Anelka a lazy striker Your comment showed that you know about Nicolas Anelka and when you started watching football.

Nicolas Anelka was a notable striker before Henry came to limelight both in France national team and at club sides. Anelka played for Juve, Madrid, Arsenal, New Castle, PSG. Anelka was at Juve before Henry move to Juve, he was at Arsenal before Henry moved to Arsenal. Anyone calling Anelka a lazy striker don't know anything about Anelka, Anelka lasted in football more than Henry, pls use Google or ask questions.

ThierryJay:
Henry was better than Eto'o hands down. Even that same Fenomeno did not win UCL or score in its final yet he is better than Eto.

Henry was nominated for World player & Ballon dor final 3 times and came second twice and third once. Eto was only nominated once and he came third.

Henry won:
-World cup
-Euro 2000,
-Fifa confederations Cup (where he scored against Eto's Cameroon in final and won player of tournament)
-UCL - Eto may have scored in that final but Henry was instrumental in that UCL campaign as well with 4 knockout goals.
-Henry dragged an average Arsenal side to UCL final with several scintillating displays.
-Henry's 2006 world cup campaign to the final is also notable for great performances against Brazil and Portugal.

On a personal attribute level, Henry was faster, more skillful, could pass the ball better, could score free kicks regularly, assisted more than Eto. Both have similar goal sense.

And Suarez, Lewandowski & Shevchenko are better than Eto'o. Rooney and Aguero are on his same level.

Note that Henry's prime was 2000 - 2006 while Eto's prime was 2004 - 2010. By the time Henry was playing with Eto in Barca he was already winding down his career. At Henry's prime he was generally considered arguably to be the worlds best striker vs Fenomeno.

Rooney and Aguero in the class of Eto? Eto didn't move to Barca by mistake or lobbying ok. Eto was at Madrid and Madrid loaned him to Real Marloca, at Marloca, he played against Madrid and showed them his class that was how Barca went for him. Watching only English Premier league is the sole reason one can put Rooney and Aguero in the class of Eto.

Also comparing Henry with De Lima (R9) shows disrespect and nothing more. The first world best R9 won was at Inter that was where he was called fenomeno. Do you know that R9 played at Barca? Maybe you started watching him during his days at Madrid. In the interview Henry granted, he didn't compare himself with R9, both are not even compared before FIFA and anything that has to do with the leather round-object game.
