See Nigerians living in France acting like morons in the last picture! Holding broom instead of the country's flag. They could as well raise used condoms. How unpatriotic! Are we still campaining?

Ordinary Akara seller can rake in millions per month if serious and professional enough. We are about 21 million in Lagos, imagine targeting a fraction with well done Akara every morning....

You can ask your questions

The recent moves of Mr President on corruption is really a confidence booster. Every other person is entitled to their opinions. We ought to give the new administration a chance

Mostly an item to display status symbol, the "I better pass my neighbour" mentality. Though just a few Nigerians do maximise the phone's functional shaa.

Uemployed "housewives" wives are really unfashionable cases in these days of falling oil prices. There are many ways even housewives can make money and be more responsible around homes.

Just 300 naira? Why not add an extra zero bros?

The lucky survivors have the brave people of Makoko to thank. The previous administration thought it wise to demolish their floating structures sometimes back because they were "polluting the lagoon". They should add saving lives to their records

jpphilips:
Kaduna refinery was not designed to refine light crude (in lay man's terms) produced in the delta at the onset, the Kaduna refinery was serving the purpose of supplying refined products to the north and also a national contingency programme.
The oil refined in Kaduna was imported at the time, it was done in a way that if there is trouble in the delta that no oil can come out from there, Kaduna will hold the fort with imported crude as an emergency response.

It was recently when heavy crude(in layman's terms) became expensive and the refineries in the south collapsed, that the idea was jettisoned and the refinery was remodelled to crack light crude. That was the ingenuity of our heroes past, when our leaders used to think.
There was no ethnic motive whatsoever, it was based strictly on national interest.

In my opinion, do you guys have any idea how much it will cost to run a pipeline from the south to the north and the risk of transporting refined products against crude, let me give you a few examples;

The Transborder keystone pipeline will span a distance of 1,897km at a cost of $7b, if you factor in inflation terms that sum at the time Kaduna refinery was built would be nearly $4b, meanwhile Kaduna refinery cost around $500m.

So it is cheaper to build a refinery than transporting over a long distance, the money for the pipelines alone will get us about 6 more refineries.
The refinery will create more direct and indirect jobs more that a massive pipeline project of that nature, so it makes perfect economic sense to have a refinery in Kaduna, than transporting refined products over a long distance.
Our leaders past (Economic planners like you put it) were not brainless you are.

From your personal message below, it shows you are a mere Northern elite apologist. I must tell you that you have not made yourself quite convincing enough with your cosmetic explanation.
Rather than build Agro-allied and food processing industries to maximize your strong points and create the much needed local employment where it is much needed, you had to get your zone involved in the miry business. Let us see how much intelligent the planners are in these days of shale oil, falling oil prices and green energy.

Eehyah, that is most unfortunate. My sincere commiseration goes to her at this moment. Doing business in Nigeria comes with a lot of risks. Sorry she had to experience it first hand. I pray she bounces back soon enough.

How exactly is it that we produce crude oil from the coast and pass pipelines millions of kilometres underground to the north and claim that as a success? In the days of Boko haram, what does the north have to do with refining petroleum products when the pipes can easily be hijacked by the evil does? I wont be surprised if we have to deal with cases of oil spillage in the North someday. Economic planners in Nigeria are truly brainless

If many of you grew from privileged homes where more of your siblings are educated, You will violently defend NYSC and its positive ideals. Imagine a celebrity that ought to know better, spewing out trash on the internet. Now by tomorrow, we will all be throwing tribalistic bombs at each other when we did not experience first hand, that all of us are in the same ship and our challenges are not quite different from each other.
At least for one thing, corp members are the core of grassroots education in Nigeria. I served in a village and I know schools with less than 10 teachers, popular community school's for that matter. Now tell me...

No thanks to the colonialists, the idea of Nairaland would have manifested as one big cocoa farm or worst then I and you might have had this interaction through wrestling at the village square. Buhahahahaha

I bet you don't even know where seme border is. Apologists everywhere.

It would have been wiser if you chose not to disclose your unintelligence on the internet

As a Nigerian currently residing in Benin Republic, I think this statement is not quite bad. In fact, knowing what is obtainable here as comparable with home, I think the president is really right to conclude that we are better off. Nigerians don't just like to hear the truth said back to them in an unambiguous form.

What is there to waste, learning a language spoken by about 60 million people? Do you know that we are surrounded by francophone countries? In a world of diverse opportunities, and scarce ones at home for that matter, learning a new language like french can be your greatest asset.

So vaccinating his grand child and drinking #35 milo is a sign of victory to many Nigerians who keeps praising these 'heroic' efforts. Its nearing a hundred days for this tenure and the rest of us knows how things have changed in Nigeria. Let us all keep deceiving ourselves

Nonsense! We shaa defeated the highly dreaded ebola virus to the envy of other African countries and others. I've never heard that any citizen would die for not meeting the switch anyway. Who really cares to subscribe for the crappy Startimes NOVA bouquet (600 naira) when there is no light to watch it? Not to talk of the most expensive GOTV bouquet

Brief summary : on the Internet, no one knows you're a dog!

I guess we are just counting days to align Ondo State to the cult of progressives. It's time the whole of South West take from their age-old wisdom and build a modernist region that all the others can copy from.
