Way better? In what way and plz dnt say corruption.
What way plz??

oga corruption aside in this country we would have gone a long way, a thousand mile journey starts with a step, no matter how hard or difficult it is.

To be honest we should stop using cost of crude as excuse. Today oil sells for above $50.it's getting better.
Besides the fall of crude meant most countries had cheap petrol but nahh not Nigeria
And without subsidy I'm trying to see where anyone is going to import frm at less than N200

its getting better because we are not producing at our normal level,not only that Canada is not producing at its peak cos of fire,Libya is not selling at all,in the next couple of months all this countries will start production with Iran going back to its peak,oil price will fall back to $30/barrel,with new hydrogen fuel cell and improved batteries by Tesla and co,fossil fuel is destined to crash.
Nigerians talk about the golden years of the 50s to 70s,question is what was the population then?what percentage of Nigerians use imported items compared to today,PMB might not be an intellect but there are some basic things I think he is doing right for now.
P.s.am not saying he is what we desire but he is way better than what we have before.

Housing:
I have been to banana island on occasions and I don't see anything special in that vicinity. To me security in Lekki phase 1 is even better. The roads there are not the best. The green areas is not as reach as VGC which is now a common place. Banana Island is over hyped and highly over priced. The rich in Banana Island are you mostly young accidental millionaires and billionaires. You will never see well established billionaires with well known business within Banana Island. Even the owners of most structure and that of the real estate that developed and sold the property stays in the main Ikoyi and not within Banana Island..

are adenuga and dangotedangote accidental millionaires?

Nigerians weren't queuing for essentials until the return of the boy from daura, who is working very hard to replicate the same scenarios that saw him being booted out of power.
There was an emerging middle class from the period of 1999, but within one year the system is being restructured into the rich and the poor, where poor comes in 3 categories.

the economy didn't go bad under a year,the naira fell from 200 naira to 260 under one month under Gej,corruption under Shagari also brought the naira to its knee, that was the period most companies in Nigeria failed, oil price went down then,everything was imported into the country, what gave ibb administration more money to spend was the gulf war,which led to the increase in production, and price of oil,if we don't do things right,now,we are doomed,apart of buhari ways the alternative is what Ibb did,which led us to where we are now,question is should we repeat Ibb's method.

NavierStokes:
My brother there is nothing happening today that is any different from what was obtainable in 84 that the man was booted out. IBB and co needed to take the steering from Buhari before he would run over the cliff, it's the same thing today. I recall seeing some funny cartoon image of a man using the same 1983 calendar in 2016.
Different years, same occurrences.

and after Ibb boted him out, are we in a better state than pre 85?

I hope he wrote an apology letter for the money Gej used for campaign, dasuki gate, olisa metuh 400million naira etc.

NavierStokes:
The country is undergoing "change" but by the time this change has been completed, things may have moved beyond recognition.

End effect of solving 2010+s problems with 1980's solutions.

that bitter pill we refused to take in 1984 was the beginning of major corruption in Nigeria and we are still paying it now.

But why is the president spending two billion naira to maintain aso rock?I just don't understand.

Divinehenrich:
Plz what is the cause of this fresh tomatoes scarcity?

a moth or rather tomatoes blight ravaged most of the crop in the country, 85% and no solution for now,not the government fault, but they are not doing well to communicate this to the populace it has really add to the cost of other items in the market,information management is zero in that aspect, if the govt had inform the people other items won't be that expensive.

nkemjacob2:
not all. BRT running from ajah to cms & obalende do not have AC is spoilt and d buses are partially dilapidated no maintance culture. So i shud b asking u if u are in lagos

are they blue buses?the old blue buses does not have ac either.

I dont know why NLC will not call for strikes on issues like this, if they use this amount to maintain the villa, how Much will it cost to build a new one, this luxurious lifestyle of the President must be resisted, thats why other leaders have being living in a cocoon.what are they maintaining in brand new cars, this is noy the change we asked for.

Mod please give us a break on yobo and his wife please,its becoming irritating, their publicist should slow down abeg, too much of everything spoil everything.

nkemjacob2:
U dont nid some 1 advice to tel u dis wont work. BRT has not being fully maintain and by d way AC busses is not what we nid now. Solve unemployment, traffic matters. Demand 4 AC busses will result to increase in transport fee

all the blue brt buses av ac, am sure you are not in Lagos.

hefelove:
instrumental kini? for cele? abegii. CAC over cele on instrument. U'll hardly see Cele churches using Violin, Viola, Clarinet, Trobone apart frm normal guiter trumpet drum keyboard and gangan am soo sure of dis

violin and viola in a Nigerian church? common get real, its a choir not an orchestra with a standard theatre, trust me they can handle all those instruments you mentioned and more they dont joke with their music, why do you think they gyrate from morning till evening.

UIA04:
No problem dear, you are welcome to join me.


Cool idea retiring by 45 years, that means hardly sleeping right now though.

wat can I do? Real men hardly sleep, not with fuel @ 145, ask my brothers, Dangote,Otedola and Obi.

Music is not easy. Any celebrity that can consistently release hits year after year should be appreciated. If you think music is easy, then ask yourself this question, “where are the likes of cyrus-tha-virus, danfo drivers, Africa china, etc ?”

As fans of rap music, who do you think is the King of Rap in Nigeria?

http://www.infongr.com/2016/05/lolplease-caption-this-photo-of.html

danfo driver and africam China ate rappers? I dont get u at all.
For now if you understand what he says, Olamide is the best, am am Eminem fan, he is the greatest rapper of all time, pac, biggie and jay are still there on the list, but Olamide in Nigeria is something else,but He should try to rap more in english to get wider audience and appreciation, yes he plays/fools around with his songs just like em does but When He is serious he got it lock down, goons mi, eyan mayweather reminds me of em rabbit run

UIA04:
Money full naija some are just silent spenders.


If I have such money I doubt I'll buy this kind of a car maybe I'll spend mine traveling to exotic places. I'll go to opera houses in France, Spain and Italy. I'll ride the gondola. I'll watch my team real Madrid win the uefa Champions League from the vip seats. I'll go on boat cruises that last months to exotic islands. Then if I'm still interested in it I'll get acres of land to build my house with horses at a corner so I can ride them every day when I retire. Hmmmm




Of course you don't have to ask giving to the less priviledged is paramount on my list. That's why I admire bill Gates even if he is an atheist.

awwwwwwww you are so adorable..... most naija girls dont think this way, can you take me along? lol.... i can pay my bills btw... i want to retire b4 am 45 nd travel the world and die smiling in my 90s.

Smartsyn:
Op you no mention Celestial, no let the clap and dance on top your head oo

they dont clap in cele, for your info they have the best musical choirs and instrumentalist, most of the instrumentalist you see in other churches have cele background.

fuckDmod:
Hmm but this is the first time the yoruba's ever really supported the hausa/fulani.in the first republic nnamdi azikwe betrayed awolowo nd sided with a notherner(amadu bello),ncnc an igbo party marged with npc an hause party,while tafawa balewa was the prime minister,nnamdi azikwe was the president,while awolowo of action group was in opposition,in second republic it was shagari nd ekwueme,even in 1999 obj was not the yoruba candidate but baba olu falae,but igbo nd north vote against our choice.now cause yoruba's supported a nothern president one u won't let us hear word.am nt a buhari or apc fan(infact am anti-apc) but u guys need to stop being a bigot nd calling the yoruba's hausa asslickers cause last time I check u have always supported d hausa's more than us.just learn to play opposition smartly nd stop being I bigot
All southern tribes are at fault one way or the other,let us stop putting the whole blame on yoruba's let's settle whatever greviance we have against eachother nd I am sure we would be come formidable for the north to control

God bless you, instead of them to extend a handshake of coperation accross the Niger, they are hallucinating that we regard the North like they do, trying to bring up sentiment. You guys need to learn, you ve licked the North ass more than the sw can ever do.

Op are you from the south East? if not, whats your business with them?

What the hell are we doing with religious pilgrim boards? Nigeria is a secular state anyone wants to travel for pilgrimage, they should use their personal money not tax payers money.

UIA04:
Looool
You sound like the kind of guy surrounded by a bevy of ladies so if one does shakara he moves on to the next.

not that, we just make ou r hearts rigid,suckling because someone thinks you are a perpetual player? nah i rather move on, one thing i cant waste my time on, is money and in pursuit of happiness.

Bevy of ladies?..... lolzzz i plead the fifth

czarr:
my bad bro.typo not selling, I think I meant to write servicing. You get?

oh that, lol I respect all ladies, let me leave you to your imagination, I cany say yes or no, any answer is to that is disrespectful to women in general.

UIA04:
About the soft spot pretty part are you talking of ladies?


And this your relationship, are you OK emotionally with it seeing you are in love with her and she isn't taking you seriously. If what you guys have is friends with benefits then my nigga you might end up hurting at the end o.

yh ladies, for us being pretty and hot is just a regular thing, there must be something else about the lady to break the hard mantle(like earth crust )of our hearts and get to the soft spot og our hearts, it might be the smile, the way she talks, her carriage, passion, iq, or talents any one your hearts is dear to.

About me and her... lol One thing guys like me knows how to do is get over it immediately we pour our hearts out and you dont believe, we might keep you on the radar, but we ain't hurting, cos to us, its your loss.

czarr:
cool story bro

Cool!
So u selling the puccie or nah?

i dont get you, ELI5, explain to me like am 5

Lol, Africa na wa oooo.

UIA04:
Wow, first impressions are really difficult to break.

Maybe you should keep trying then she'll see your sincerity. Or just move on and be a good guy

yh yh we "bad"bois are the most missunderstood guys out there, we, all av softs spots, in most cases they are not the most pretty, hottest or anything, it can just be anything else that attracts us, that's where people doubt our sincerity, anyway, for your advice, you didn't read the part that she didn't turn me down but She didnt believe me abit, we have a non committal relationship, nothing serious.

Bollinger:
Go ahead bro. Justify your way of thinking anyway you will. Bottom line is to have only one allegiance to your country. Not two.

no need for me to deceive myself, we are not one people, i love Nigerians more than other Africans, love africans more than other people of the world, thats the reality.

Bollinger:
What are you talking about? I have told you why it is better to put a nation first before tribes. I have gone further to show you what should be common knowledge. If you had known that Germans were part of today's England then why say they weren't? I get it. You are a Nigerian. The obvious escapes you. "Nuff said.

jeez I give up on u ooo,Saxons are Germanic tribe,just like we have Hausas in Niger and Nigeria,you can't say part of Nigerians made up Niger, Benin,Ghana,its part ofHausa's,or Fulani that you will find from most countries in west Africa from Guinea to Cameroon. The area you call Germany today was given that name in the 20th century, there are other Germanic tribes but they are not present in the British isles. Present day people there see themselves first as English, Scot,welsh,Irish b4 Britons.

UIA04:
Wow. Did you guys know each other prior to that, maybe she still saw you as a player and was just scared

nah she wasn't scared not at all,can't on the flip side she was very daring and adventurous, that's what attracted me to her,yeah at first I wanted to just av fun and move on but when I got to know her ,I was like,wait a minute she is actually smart, intelligent and pretty,then I decided to be nice and she freaked out that am not being real anymore,how can a LovePeddler man like me ,really like someone like her,jeezz I was lost

Bollinger:
I had to go to Google to get information I already knew. Pity.

The Anglo-Saxons were a people who inhabited Great Britain from the 5th century. They comprised people from Germanic tribes who migrated to the island from continental Europe, their descendants, and indigenous British groups who adopted some aspects of Anglo-Saxon culture and language.
Anglo-Saxons - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-SaxonsWikipedia

thank you for doing the right thing,consulting Google is not a bad thing,I read about the Anglo Saxons ,Celts various Germanic tribes as far back as 1998,Google was not available then,now we can talk since you be done the right thing.
