Why always ceding southern lands to neighbouring countries instead of thise Northern parts that are causing Nigeria all it's problems and no economic contributions. Just cede all that area to Niger excluding North Central, and make we rest.

How is it a major blow ??
That's how Aloy Agu took the Number one spot from Ngodika who injured at world Cup qualifier in Yaounde, Cameroon 🇨🇲 in 1990. Ngodika got injured during the match and was replaced by Aloy Agu who out shined and took the number one spot.
So it might be a way for number 2 to be number 1.

BusinessRe: What I Told My Friend Whom I Introduced Into Keke Business. by MatrixCircle: 6:32pm On Dec 27, 2025
Obaxxx:
Good day to each and every one of you out there cheesy. Hope y'all are enjoying the festivities?

So yesterday I got a call from a very good friend of mine whom I introduced into Keke business about 3 years ago. From the way he was sounding on the phone,I knew all wasn't well with him. So out of curiosity,I asked him to know why he was sounding like that and his reply really struck deep into my heart. He had finally sold off his Keke. I mean the same Keke which had left him in countless debts and of which I warned him earlier on to kindly deal away with before things would get out of hand. I even used myself as a case study for him but it seemed everything I was telling him were all falling upon deaf ears . I could remember him asking me--"Obax,if I sell the Keke now, wetin I wan come do"? That question alone,has always been the reason why many people seems to stay in abusive marriages, relationships and works,which have led them to their early graves angry.

Tho I was once in a similar situation like him,but how I navigated my way out of it wasn't through mysterious ways but I had to confront business- minded people to seek advice from them. I gave him plenty reasons to let go of the Keke on time because I knew what the outcome would turn out to be. I even told him to start up a POS business right in front of his street which I know to be a very busy spot.

Mind you,not that I'm making gest of him because he's the kind of friend whom I sincerely care for. And that was why I brought him in the first place. But after all the loses I encountered,I honestly wouldn't want to see anyone close to me to be a victims of such situations. All of a sudden,this dude started avoiding my calls. So I left him to his fate ,not until yesterday when he called.

Now, here's what I'm trying to say. Sometimes, hustling smart pays more than hustling hard. I've tested the both of them and I can attest to that. Here on Nairaland, I've always shared stories about myself,not because I want public sympathy or financial help from anyone but to let every hustler on here know that there's always dignity in hardwork. I've always been of the opinion that giving up on life as a hustler shouldn't be an option and of course I can't even remember the numerous times many Nairalanders have reached out to me. Some said words of encouragement to me,and others insulted the hell out of me. Yet, giving up has never and will never be an option.

There was a time I worked in different bakeries. The last one happened to belong to my Friend's immediate younger sister and I was made the manager. But despite all the efforts we put into it,they were to no avail. In fact,we got liquidated, bankrupt and fell off from business.

All those years,peace of mind was something I couldn't get. I was only hustling just to feed myself. No clothes and was still living under my father's house.

The funniest thing and sweetest fact about life generally which I've come to realize is that no matter what, sometimes, hard work doesn't really pay the way smart work does. More so,the moment you find yourself doing one thing and it isn't yielding the results you've been expecting so far,move away from it. Try something else,and eventually that's where your breakthrough may even come from🙏
You ended up writing a booklet without saying anything. Just words nothing to learn .

The phrase is even used among learnerd individuals of SE region , until I came to understand the real phrase was supposed to be "in case of necessity " or "in case of emergency "
