FoodRe: Frustrating Experience At Amala Joint At Shomolu by middlebelter(m): 10:53pm On Jul 25, 2025
Moraklaw:
Today, I went to a restaurant around Shomolu, specifically at the back of Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank) in Shomolu, where they sell amala. I had my own bottle of water, but the owner wouldn't allow me to bring it inside because they sell water. When I explained that I might need a specific type of water, or that I had purchased water in bulk, she responded arrogantly. When she told me that I couldn't bring my water in, I asked, "Do you want me to leave?" because of the way she spoke to me, and she responded, "Yes, I want you to leave." This experience left me feeling that the restaurant was not customer-centric and that the owner was unwilling to engage politely.

It’s disappointing to encounter such behavior, especially from someone who deals with perishable goods. I will not be recommending this place to others.

Perhaps there's something mysterious about her water to capture customers? Holding such a policy may not be an ordinary business strategy, who knows?
PoliticsRe: Tinubu Government Developing Southern Nigeria, Abandons The North - Kwankwaso by middlebelter(m): 8:56am On Jul 25, 2025

This is the crudest of all political games I have ever seen coming from the North. All these years the North has been enjoying unfair sharing of the National resources, did anyone in the North ever consider that unfair? You Mr. Kwankwaso, you will make a terrible President, and God will not allow you to become the President of this country with your mindset.
The Militiary infairly alloacted more states to the North at the expense of the South, just because of land size, and these became the basis of power and resources sharing, and yet you do not see the unfair advantage of the North over the South.

Tinubu may not be the best for Nigeria, but you are 100% worse than him. Thank God Nigerians can see the quality of your mindset, self serving bad losers coming together to strategize on how to continue looting of our economy.
You have been in government since 1999 to 2023, how does you make our lives better?
You frustrated GEJ out of power due to your selfish interest. You forced him to share excess crude account balance just for your selfish interest and now coming to pretend you love us. Group of devourers.
TravelGovernor Sonwo-Olu,the Ogudu Bridge Repair Is Causing Much Pain. by middlebelter(op): 5:05am On Jul 02, 2025
This is a call on Gov Sonwo-Olu, his Commissioner of transportation and LASTMA , Please help look for better ways to ensure smooth flow of traffic from 3rd mainland bridge through Oworonhoki to Toll-gate. We are dying in silence occasioned by poorly executed traffic management.
Alternative routes through Yaba connecting to Jibowu is blocked /under repair from Yaba Tech to Jibowu, traffic from Carte Bride to Funso Williams not flowing smoothly making it difficult to avoid the 3rd mainland. Shouldn't LASG ensure the bad part between Yaba-Tech and Jibowu is repaired before starting the repair of Ogudu/Ifako Bridge?
Indeed, we commutters are paying for this repair with our health, money and time.
Please Governor help us solve this traffic jam, it is becoming intolerable.

PoliticsRe: What You Should Know About Nigeria’s Ogoni 9 by middlebelter(m): 9:59pm On Jun 12, 2025
While I commend President Bola Tinubu for the award of National Honours on these freedom fighters, he must not stop there, he should go ahead and strip Sanni Abacha of all forms of national Honours, if possible, change any national monuments named after him to a different name
Mr President should also ensure Ogoni land is good for farming by removing all forms of pollution on their land and SELL should be made to pay all forms of sanctions applicable to the damage caused.
PoliticsRe: Tinubu grants presidential pardon, confers National Honours on "Ogoni 9" by middlebelter(m): 9:00pm On Jun 12, 2025
They were hanged in 1995 by the worst regime in Nigeria's history led by the most wicked Head os State ever, Sanni Abacha

They protested the SPDC's pollution of their land, which stopped them from operating. Not sure if the protest led to loss of lives, but Abacha arrested them and eventually killed them despite all appeals to stop the killing.

Please can someone tell me about these guys OGONI 9…
TravelRe: Lagos Takes Delivery Of 12 Coaches Of Blue Line Rails by middlebelter(m): 8:10am On Jun 06, 2025
Good job, but what happened to the BRT buses? Shouldn't this pose a sleepless night for Mr. Governor? Many are left stranded at the Bus Stop along the Lekki Ajah Axis. Many residing on the mainland working on the Island or Lekki—Ajah axis suffer daily just because the BRT buses are not there or are inadequate to meet the needs. Mr. Governor, we know you can do this for us. We voted for you, not the people in FESTAC, who will be enjoying the Blue rail line.
AgricultureRe: My Maize Farm - Six Acres by middlebelter(m): 1:06pm On Jun 05, 2025
Thank you for the insight shared.


Sp33i:
**Maize population plays an important role in the yield. This is why it is crucial to plant the right quantity of seeds and not just quality.



In my case, i planted three seeds per hole and aimed to cultivate between 11,000 and 12,000 seeds. This gives room for mortality of 5-15%. If 5-15% of the seeds do not grow, it means I end up getting 10,000 successfully grown plants per acre.


For my six acreage area, i had 72,000 seeds cultivated.




***Let's do a quick maths.

If u have let's say 10,000 stands of maize on your farm, and a maize cob weigh 350g after good Agronomic practice. After shelling it can reduce to 250g.

*If u convert to kg, u have 0.25kg.

*Multiply by 10,000 stands..... 2500kg - 2.5 Tons per acre area


*100kg makes a bag... So u can get 25 bags of 100kg





****Agriculture is very hard to start, but if you start the right way you will become UNSTOPPABLE***



Stop procrastinating and kick start your agricultural projects today !

Tinubu should have used this man shine, in the corruption fight boost his government profile but maybe he has something he can use to hold his balls.

What is the role of the National Assembly and the CBN in this mess? Let CBN devise a bill proposing stringent sanctions for demanding USD or any other foreign currency for any domestic transaction within Nigeria. The National Assembly should make such a law for PBAT to sign.

Rubbish stupid ❌ 🤬 EFCC
Are you one of them. Why is your comment suggesting you are not happy with their arrest? Are those boys doing the right things in the society? Should we allow their to freely operate? EFCC has tried and should be on commended this time around. As for the arrest of politicians, it is a gradual process, of they don't get it right now, sometimes in future, they will get their strategies right.
PoliticsRe: El-Rufai: Tinubu Administration Is The ‘Worst’ Government In Nigeria’s History by middlebelter(m): 7:59am On Apr 16, 2025
Tinubu administration this, Tinubu that, can El-Rufai just give us a respite? Did you talk when Buhari was destroying this country with borrowing, nepotism, and corruption? It is easy to repair what was damaged. Do you not all agree that subsidy removal is necessary? Did currency devaluation start with Tinubu?
I agree Tinubu can do better, but if anyone should be castigating Tinubu every time, certainly this El-Rufai isn't qualified to do so. He campaigned for him and one of the major people that made Nigeria vote for him, so just because of your selfish interest, you keep attacking him? Wer don't want a tribal bigot as Minister nor a religious war monger like you. We have thousands of good northern that wish our country well that are better than you.
PoliticsRe: Northern youths reject bill seeking to convert Lagos 37 LCDAs to LGs by middlebelter(m): 8:10am On Mar 28, 2025
The so-called Northern Youths have no sense of history, perhaps they should ask their fathers about the history of Nigeria. How Nigeria's independence was negotiated on a TRIPOD called North, West, and East Regions, and how through the use of military the North has changed the political negotiations to North Vs South 2. How Sanni Abacha, ( the worst leader in the history of Nigeria), used military advantage to create 44 local government Areas for Kano after creating Jigawa State out of old Kano state that shared the same state status with Lagos State.

They should not remind us about the depth of injustice the North has perpetrated in this country using their military sons. Now it is so difficult for Southern Nigeria to unite and ask that after South West, it should be the turn of Eastern Nigeria to produce a president because of the greed for power from the North.

If they do not know history, they should be taught that even the North today is sharply divided and that we in the Middlebelt want a separate identity.

OriOko88:
Wats the difference between PDP and APC. All of them are the same. El rufai was former minister under PDP. So who's deceiving who.

Of all the people to grace ibb's book launch,Obj is the last person I expected to attend. Wat da hell was he doing there. The same ibb that annulled ur kinsman's election.
I was about 7 yrs old in 1993 so I remember the violent protests in Ibadan then after the annulment of 93 election. "Babangida ole,ole was the anthem on the street then. So I don't expect any sane Yoruba to grace that book launch.

Abiola would be turning in his grave by now to see one of his disciples,Tinubu sitting side by side with babangida. Buhari will never attend such meeting cos he knew how babangida back stabbed in 1985. Awon eleriibu
IBB gave OBJ the ticket to become a civilian president after the death of Abacha.

Christianity EtcRe: Kumuyi Leads Prayer At President Trump's Inaugural Prayer & Praise Meeting by middlebelter(m): 11:43am On Jan 20, 2025
descarado:
I attended a southern african church last 2 weeks.
No shouting, screaming, falling by anointing.
Infact, no drama. More praise and the preaching was godly living. Guess what, no offering.
But they pay tithe. Everybody including the pastor is working.

Pastor came down from the pulpit, very close to the congregation and was speaking like a therapist. It was like group discussion. My head was just spinning. Can this happen in naija where narcissism reign supreme?

The pastors wife is my colleague and friend. Not until I attended the church after years of invitation that I knew she is the pastors wife. Called her mummy G.O. She asked me with all seriousness what that means. Lol.
There's a church in Anthony Village Lagos whose mode of worship is similar to what you described. Indeed, no clapping, dancing, or collection plate but they have a Tithes and Offering box, and there is no mention of offering during service except occasionally when they are teaching about God's plan of financing. They have a big tabernacle and are located at Campground road. They own the Campground.
