Celebrities / Re: Tekno Signs Record Deal With Sony Music World [PICS] by mattobas(m): 9:15am On Nov 02, 2016
Sony Music be giving these African artistes 360 deals and they accept, they make so much from you the artiste while you hardly make anything from them... All they do is pressure you for hits and tell you they're doing you a favour by promoting you, like it's not their job sef... Mtcheew!
My point is, Wizkid if the face of African music. He already associates with disturbing London, parleys with Chris Brown, Drake, Jeezy and many top American acts... so he understands the music business and won't just sign anything that won't benefit him, he has enough exposure as he is and can do it himself as a you boss.
NOTE: Most American acts reject these 360 deal with Major Labels and go the solo route with Independent Labels like TDE, YMCMB, CTE, ROC Nation, GOOD Music, Aftermath and co. These Independent Labels don't rip you off as much and you can easily break from your contract if aggrieved unlike with majors who hold you like a slave and can bury you with attorney fees if they sue you.
Wizkid is a young boss and will sign when he gets the right offer and I swear the deal will be F*** huge!

I respect Nothern Senators. They understand thier Job as lawmaker which is to bring development to thier constituency.

Southern Senators dominated by PDP are big Joke. All our southern senators know how to do is to defend criminals and looters. All our sounthern PDP dominated senators are good at is to act as Saraki bodyguards during CCT trial.

The funny thing is dat many nothern senators are just OND and BSC holders. While among southern senators u have PhD,Msc,SAN, MBBS etc.

@Tonye Barcanista i think your post should rather praise and commend Northern Senators 4 thier ability to lobby our stupid sounthern senator to approve and support the bill.
Gbam! On point, imagine the Rep from my area in Isoko North said his son will inherit power after him. This is the mindset of our stupid PDP leaders and their ilk in the south, selfish, greedy, wicked bunch of bastards.

.... U tramp... Come to south east around Oji river and see that South East were given nothing to rebuild their land.. I can see Boko haram was a conspiracy from the North to draw sympathy around Nigeria and the world... Everything is becoming clear to me... Boko haram did not do 1/4 of what Nigeria army did in South East and till today.. The 3r by Gowon has not been implemented.... I smell conspiracy... God pass them....

My Pray is for God to elevate Boko haram to Al-queada and Isis.. Whatever Bigger than Boko haram... Let them Bomb the whole North .. Demons
Obviously you're an FFK type of human who just spew trash even when they know it's trash. Your evil wish will not work and even God is not with you on that evil wish you just made.
Amen!!!

Stop feigning stúpidíty. Did Nigerians destroy NE? You talk like the BH has changed mentality about Western system. SE deserves a develnpment commission 10,000,000 times more than the NE.
And stop promoting stupidity too, did Nigerians tell the South to promote deve deve at the expense of collective effort for development? Yet Nigerians paid for the NDDC used to develop the region.
Tribalism and religious bigotry at work

Like Biafra, BH tried to break Nigeria. Why the national donation?
Yet the south got NDDC after their struggles, do you people even stop for a moment to think?
Hate is the problem of this country, you guys got to stop this "My tribe and state" mentality and take up the One Nigeria mentality. Stop been biased whilst claiming enlightenment, how on earth will sane humans think a bill to develop the recovering region be sabotaged because you have a problem with the elite? You want the common people to suffer because of "the elite" .. My peeps, I've been there to the NE and they really need the aid.
And FYI not all northern elite are bad and selfish, they care waaaay more for their people than Southern leaders ever do or could.

TonyeBarcanista:
Few days ago, the Nigeria Senate passed a bill establishing the North-East Development Commission (NEDC). The proposed NEDC was meant to be an intervention agency that will facilitate the rebuilding of the North-eastern part of the country that was revaged by Boko Haram. While, I am not against rebuilding of the region, I am against the establishment of a commission to be funded by the people of Nigeria.

I am in shock that forty-seven Senators from the seventeen states in the southern part of Nigeria would assent to such unpatriotic bill that only favors the elite of a section of the country. I am also at loss with words that these same Senators joined their northern counterparts to oppose and reject the bill to grant Lagos a special status but saw nothing amiss in the so-called North East development commission.

NEDC Bill, An Unpatriotic Bill
The NEDC bill is the most unpatriotic bill since the advent of our democracy. Why should 3% of the Nation's VAT revenue be channeled to just Northeast alone? Is the Northeast the only part of Nigeria that has witnessed insurrection and destruction in this country? Was there Eastern Development Commission (or South East Development Commission) after the civil war to rebuild the region that hosted the bloody confrontation between the separatist led by Ikemba Ojukwu and Nigeria State that lasted for three years and destroyed several infrastructures? Why is there no North-Central Development Commission to rebuild the region ravaged by those terrorists hiding as Fulani herdsmen?

Is it not ridiculous that the Senate is telling the Nigeria State and Nigerians to bear the responsibility of fending for the Northeast when the so-called Boko Haram could be traced to failure of the elites from the Northeast region to instill social responsibility on their young ones? Why should the South not enjoy special privileges considering that they are the people that chun out most of our revenue? Why should the Northeast, whose contribution to the federal purse is almost non-existent still enjoy 3% of VAT from the South as well as their regular allocation?

This proposed NEDC is the height of irresponsibility and unpatriotism.

Who Allowed Boko Haram Activities To Fester?
I believe Nigerians must be informed on what transpired with respect to the efforts of the past administration to curb Boko-Haram. When the Army led by Gen Ihejirika confronted the terrorists in Baga, in April 2013, the Northeastern elders and elite came out to "condemn the army" for killing their people, and even petitioned Amnesty International, crying genocide. In May 2013 when President Goodluck Jonathan declared State of Emergency (SOE) on the areas affected by Boko Haram, the same Northeastern elite condemned the declaration. The next month, June 2013 when the government of Jonathan proscribed Boko Haram, and officially declared it a terrorist organisation, the North, faulted the move. Specifically, the Arewa Consultative Forum, Northern Youth Consultative Forum, and Northern Elders Forum faulted it. In July 2013, when the United Kingdom officially proscribed Boko Haram, non of these Northern elite were happy with the move. When the USA in November 2013 followed the step of the UK, the same Northern elite were nowhere to hail the move. So who allowed the BH activities to linger and cause so much damage? If they had cooperated perhaps Boko Haram would have been decimated before causing much damage.

I Am Not Against Northeast Development But...
If the Northeast in their wisdom believe that it is time to rebuild their region, why can't they pull resources together to do so just like the governors of the then southeast did in rebuilding their region after the "uncivil" war? Why should they still expect 3% of our lean resources to take care of a problem that they (Northern elite) encouraged? Money that isn't enough to take care of the needs of the people bringing the resources.

I am not against rebuilding the Northeast, but I am against robbing Peter to pay Ibrahim. You can't continue to reject Lagos bid for 1% revenue despite being the highest contributor to our VAT; Niger Delta bid for resource control and increment in oil derivative, despite being the producer of the revenue, and then turn around to reward Northeast with 3% of our VAT despite the fact that their problem was self-inflicted and they contribute nothing significant to the national purse.

In fact, the northeast should rather be grateful to their southern counterpart for helping them fund the resources to prosecute the insurgency at the expense of capital development, as well as the continuous allocation they receive every month. They should not bother to get more than these.

The House Must Kill The Bill...
While it is unfortunate that the Senate threw patriotism out of the window to pass the NEDC bill with our own representatives down south playing the unfortunate role of willing tool. Thank God that the House of Representative is yet to decide on the proposed bill.

I believe that for the sake of patriotism and National interest, the House, specifically the contingents from the South must stand against this bill in its entirety. Doing otherwise will be interpreted as a complete sellout and betrayal of trust by our representatives.

If the northeast want to be rebuilt, they should by themselves pay the sacrifice by using their own resources to fix their mistake or they should seek funds elsewhere.



May God Bless Us All And Bless Nigeria
The south has NDDC, so what gives you the right to think they whose communities have been ravaged waaay more than the south don't need similar?
Your point reeks of double standards, I'm a Southerner and got the sense to see they deserve the NEDC as we deserved the NDDC.
Don't be biased by hate or sheer dislike of the northern region because your points shows damn easily you're among the "North is our problem" bandwagon.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Donald Trump And The Hypocrisy And Shallowness Of Evangelical Christianity. by mattobas(m): 4:14pm On Oct 18, 2016
peterphd:


No, The Donald actually exudes common sense. He's man enough to admit that America has a problem with immigrant Latinos, Muslims and the likes. As for your misogyny accusations, he is what every woman (feminists included) want. He's rich, he's tall, he's got it all (no pun intended). If having the balls to call out American leaders for the chicken shiits they are is negative, then negative is a description he'll gladly accept. You left leaning commenters and feminists in male bodies should try other things. The labels racist, sexist and all the other 'ist' and 'ism' ending words don't work anymore.
You'are an embodiment of what's wrong with the world today. As a black you're sure to love the idea of slavery for yourself. .... What sort of human, not just human but black will spur on a man who is proven to despise his race and he believes in? FREAK!!

Career / Re: Modern Work Place Vs Old Work Place: Why New Firms Are Taking Over by mattobas(m): 7:33am On Oct 15, 2016
When firms are newly begun, they can't afford to practice most of these as at then it will hinder productivity. Even a lot of the Indigenous Nigerian firms and Companies excluding Dangote and Glo are not big players in Africa talk-less globally.
It will be hard telling Glo or Airtel Workers to adopt same ethics as MTN who are already controlling the market; you can't adopt ABSA bank's work ethics for UBA because ABSA is bigger than UBA and already on the Swift network as a result; even most of these companies you listed like Apple, Facebook were not always like how you stated them, with their huge successes they could afford to adopt those ethics.
What I'm saying is "When Nigerian firms achieve their desired level of success they'll change"; don't expect any of these soon except at Juggernaut firms in the Nigerian Economy.
