Politics › Re: Ghanians In Tears As Igbo Man Names Himself King by mikeapollo: 11:23am On Jul 08, 2025
Bendeco02:
This has been trending on Tiktok for like a week now. Men behaving like women.

In the East, we have yoruba king and communities yet we don't feel insecure.

If you see some yoruba people comment in the ghanians posts you will understand how far these people hate Igbos. They are pushing Ghanians not to take it gentle with Igbo, they should pursue Igbos, same thing they did on South Africa issue with Nigerians because they know majority of Nigerians there are Igbo.

Those Ghanians are funny

When an outsider see how yorubas cry about Igbos and support anything negative against Igbo, the person will be convinced that Igbos are dominant and stronger than them even without coming to Nigeria. They don't know they indirectly shows the world how weak and insecure they are.
He can call himself the leader of a particular tribe or people or even the president of an association
But it is just so disrespectful, nauseating and stupid to proclaim yourself a ''king'' with a ''kingdom'' in a foreign country! In Africa, the use of the title ''king'' comes with serious attention and implications.
Who made him king? Does he know that the laws of Ghana recognize only only chiefs? On whose lands does he want to be king, and by what authority?
This is how we disrespect the real traditional authorities and rulers of a place and create problems for every other person, just because of the insatiable quest for dominance and authority in another man's land.
There are so many people from different countries living in Ghana and no is causing this kind of problem.
It even becomes more difficult with the wave of criminal activities that are traced to Nigerians in their country

The rationale for those who have years on their side to own a million units of any “cheap” stock with future potential. The value could well be in millions/billions of Naira in many years to come.

A ten-year future perspective oftentimes helps. Just be sure to tick the boxes, good price, good prospects, …..buy a million units or accumulate to a million. Relax and lock emotions from occasional rough sea volatility and sail to wealth.

Gems are not so easy to find, not as sand, but once you see one, weigh the risks, and lock in.
This is the code some of us are running with. The ability to stay calm and focused when there is some momentary fall in price is key!

no sensible northerner will vote for Abubakar atiku, there are much much better qualified candidates from the north than this desperate man, the northern elite will never allow him become president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

More so deputized by an over sabi igbo man.
It is a lie!
Atiku has more popularity and will garner more votes in the north than any other Northern politician. That is a fact!
If Obi agrees to be Atiku's vice presidential candidate in 2027, bye bye to Tinubu!
Tinubu has been a disaster, anyway.

Why did you assume that?. Is that because someone who claim to be his brother say so, or because you know that for a fact. If a man loves a woman and shows it, in this part of the world na mumuness, but if a woman shows disdain towards his wife or woman, we call him cruel and less a man. Abeg, let him carry his cross the best way he deem fit.
Tuface has the right and is matured enough to do what he wants. But if I were to be in his shoes, I would avoid all this publicity and find some time for sober reflection.
He could have even visited the woman quietly without much fun fare. It seems the Natasha lady wants to drag him along where ever she goes and in whatever she does just to flaunt him, but Tuface should know how to minimize or manage that.
He already has grown up kids and they would be seeing and reading all his deeds on the internet, how he has abandoned their mums, to follow the lade etc.

Anyone who plans for retirement must carry only one stock in mind and close ear/eyes on every other stock.
Invest heavily on the stock and wait it out.It will pay heavily than having mushroom stocks up and down.

It's time for one stock consolidation as the last bull in a decade is coming up in our own time.
In 2008,those with heavy portfolios retired leaving us with mushroom portfolios in a school of wilderness experience.

Today,Loco has graduated from newbie to a veteran in the stock market.

I welcome your aspersions with open heart.

When I see the Noise Traders I easily recognize them. The noise traders are charlatans or scammers [/b]and they're so good in marketing [b]junk stocks like 'Elijah Lakes' ! shocked

Like I will always write, my fellow newbies beware of scammers whose sole trade is to market junk stocks without consistent earnings and dividends. cool

Is like you don't know the meaning of investment with respect to the stock market. If you bought a no-dividend paying stocks without ever selling it; then how are going to recoup the funds you used in the purchase of it? I know you are a gambler! cool
If you are a newbie, then it is better to avoid using derogatory words (bolded) in a hasty manner when it is not even necessary.
Investing in stocks has different perspectives based on several information and factors at one's disposal.
The reward comes from dividends, capital appreciation, bonus issues etc.
Sometimes, capital appreciation within a few days/weeks may deliver what dividends alone cannot give in several years to come! And vice versa. Sometimes, only bonus is given for some years, without dividends (cash).
There are many investors (even among the so-called newbies) who may not even be interested in dividends but capital appreciation! Which stocks would they have to buy then?
In some cases, people just buy stocks for the future of their kids or younger ones even though the company may not be paying very good dividends at the moment (e.g. FBN when it was selling for about N3-N4 a few years ago).
So Dividends is not the only reward, hence it is myopic and shallow to use it as sole basis for assessing performance.
At the end of the day, no one on this forum would solicit or demand money from anyone to invest in their stocks. . So there is no one to scam anyone; we only differ in our views and opinions about stocks..

If the NGX allows the sale of stocks bought the previous day the following day, then the next logical thing will be to turn it to BABA IJEBU EXCHANGE!

Is that even logical?
Anything that gives one money or profits, or reduces one's risks is ''logical'' in the stocks market.
One can even decide to sell and make losses in some stocks in order to use the proceeds to take position in another stocks for bigger potential profits or less risks! And all can happen on the same day
Celebrities › Re: Wake Up - 2face Idibia's Brother Charles Idibia Writes Him An Open Letter. by mikeapollo: 7:25pm On Jul 03, 2025
Konquest:
These are simply allegations. Was Charles Idibia there on all the occasions when she was alleged to be doing all these infractions? Natasha Osawaru is the granddaughter of the wealthy business mogul and Esama of Benin, High Chief Gabriel Igbinedion. She's the daughter of High Chief Igbinedion's daughter.

How can anyone refer to Natasha (who is a lawyer, U.S.-educated movie maker, and comes from a respectable family) as a psychotic? Those are VERY strong words to use in the public domain. If she decides to sue him for outright defamation and use of uncomplimentary words in the public domain, Charles would have to show EVIDENCE that she actually did what he accused her of doing in his post. This is why it's absolutely good to reflect deeply before posting opinions online and offline which ALSO CLEARLY MUSN'T be done under the influence of anger.
?
How would he make such allegations and in such detail if he was not told Tuface himself? He gave instances of how messages were being posted and deleted on Tuface's social media handles and Tuface must have confided in him for him to know such..
He is not just making allegations. He is saying secrets that happened behind closed doors, not rumours. The brother is calling on Tuface to take some time off to heal and do sober reflection before he allows another woman to be dragging him up and down all over the place and in the media. Tuface has 7 kids for God's sake and he needs to be ware of the kind of legacy he leaves for his family instead of a lady just pushing him and using him anyhow for clout chasing.
Only those who love can do some of these things his brother is doing. It is still better he says it out than to keep quiet and watch his brother drown and be destroyed in the hands of heartless and selfish ladies.
Psychotic means someone who has lost touch with reality.
The lady cannot sue anybody because no body mentioned her name!

Do you consider it wise to bring your private family issues under Social Media public glare?

It's Tuface private life. If he doesn't want to take his advice, he can report to other family members & hold his peace, instead of reporting to the whole world via Social Media.
Wetin concern the whole world with your private family affairs?
There is no wisdom in his action, unless his real motive is to cause trouble for Tuface.
I understand your point and agree to some extent.
But I think he is rather calling out the lady, rather than Tuface himself.
Tuface is already a public figure and he himself has been the one coming to the public with his private matters.
If the brother had omade this comment, no one would have known how Tuface was allegedly manipulated by the lady to announce his divorce from Annie, when in actual fact it was the lady herself that hacked into Tuface's phone to post the news about the divorce from Annie on social media when Tuface was still legally married. It is for all of us to learn from.

If he has anything to tell Tuface, he should meet him one on one instead of washing his dirty linen in public.
He is rather indirectly calling out the lady. Dont you get it?. All the issues in the write up is about the lady.
He must have been telling him without him listening or paying attention. And he needs to let it be know what the new lady is up to. Why should a lady hack your phone and social media handles to make posts to impersonate you?

Stop the lies. Israel did not use bunker bursting bomb on Nasrullah in Lebanon. Israel rater infiltrated the walkie talkie used by Hezbollah. The devices exploded and killed members of Hezbollah and cut off communication amongst them. Several commanders of Hezbollah, including Nasrullah were bombed and killed when they went to attend some meeting in the middle of the night.

No one disputes that quote you made about premium stocks. However, you must note that for those who want to grow their portfolio, they must be willing to take a level of calculated risk.

If person no fit afford house in Ikoyi, VictoriaIsland, etc nko. Commercial properties in Ikeja, Surulere, Somolu, Aguda, Oshodi, Ajah, Jakande, etc will also suffice in growing their cashflow and building their networth.

Wide diversification in bluechip stocks like Nestle, Zenith, GTB, etc is for people wey don balance well, chop better things. It takes time for them to double their prices except there has been a drastic depreciation which is similar to buying significantly distressed building in Ikoyi, Victoria Island, etc.

For those growing their portfolios, they should apply calculated risks to other stocks with capital appreciation growth opportunities. Similar example is when some of the stocks we see today were trading at NGN0.20kobo a few years ago.

Lastly, all these postulated suggestions are nothing good when the management becomes shitty and corrupt.

This same Nigerian Breweries PLC and even Guinness PLC that were solid bluechip dividend raking stocks giving investors significant cashflow and capital appreciation lost their mojo when some ridiculous moves were made by their Nigerian MD several years or over a decade ago. Since them, the parent companies have never trusted Nigerians to run their affairs for some time.

Some people are yet to understand the saying that ''no condition is permanent'', is very applicable to stocks listed on the exchange.
Just watch out for stocks listed in key sectors, especially those operating in capital intensive sectors which invariably impose high barriers to entry so new investors prefer to acquire pre-existing ones e.g. brewery, FCMG, cement, Oil and gas, etc.
Companies in these sectors will surely overcome whatever temporary challenges they may have or be acquired by other local or international firms and their prices will rebound e.g. NB/Heineken, IBL/SAB Miller, Honeywell/Flour Mills, BCC/Dangote cement, Lafarge, etc. Oando in the worst case scenario can only merge with or be acquired by another big player and the price will jump beyond reach.

Giving Oando shareholders dividend of N10 per share (instead of share redistribution) would be very controversial. Whatever is realized would be shared over holders of about 9.4billion shares.
And there can be no other ''institutional investors'' other than Wale and his team.
But it would most probably shoot up the price of Oando, possibly far above N100.

Why will Russia that is a perpetual enemy of US, assist Israel that is US assassins
90% of governments toppled and people assassinated around the world were done by Israel, on behalf of US
Israel carries out US's dirty work, so that US can continue to pretend to be progressive and nice and good. That is why US can never oppose Israel no matter their genocide. Infact US has become a puppet of Israel.
Most of you are slaves to Israel's propaganda. But the truth is slowly coming out
There is a strong bond between Russia and Israel, if you do not know.
Some 2million Russian Jews migrated from Russia to live in Israel some years ago. It was a migration that was worked out by the governments of of both nations.
Family › Re: My Wife Called German Police On Me And Accused Me Of Rape by mikeapollo: 9:01am On Jun 30, 2025
Bestman241:
Last week Friday I started begging my wife for us to have sex since it’s been over a year we had it. Anytime I requested for sex, it’s always one excuse on top another about how she’s lost drive for sex completely. Mind you, I’m not inconveniencing her at all as I do most of the house chores and foot 100% of the billings. The only thing I sometimes refused to do is send money to her parents due to heavy demands from her.

So, on Friday after heavy persuasion lasting into hours, she yielded in and we had sex. On Saturday, I received German police at my door asking about my wife. I called her out and before I knew what was happening, they started asking her if she’s safe which she told them she’s not. They took her to a makeshift apartment pending when they finish investigation on me. I have received a case file which I must respond to and present myself this morning (Monday).

I’ve never treated my wife badly even when it’s obvious I lost control of the home . She’s the one always insulting, always speaking to her male colleagues at late hours, not joining her to do anything at home.

Tired. I don’t know what to do from here
What kind of story is this without enough background info.
Which country do you and your wife originally come from? How long have you been married? What are your ages? Any kids involved? Does she work? etc.
These info would add more balance to the story and assist people in their advice or suggestions or contributions

This right here is the kind of gibberish one would utter if one lacks understanding of Geo-politics. Giving the Israel - Iran Conflict a religious coloration shows how ignorant a lot of people are.

Are you aware that there are more Christians in Iran than they are in Israel. Judaism is the official state religion of Israel. A large percentage of Israeli don't even believe that Jesus is the Messiah.
Even though I agree that the conflict is not purely based on religion, there is still the religious angle to it.
You need to listen to how people call on members of their religion to kill all Jews/Israelis. Why is it that some people of a particular religion have vowed to destroy and wipe the Jews/Israelis off the surface of the earth and many of their followers are following that vow in countries dominated by the religion?

The difference in the case of Christians and Jews is that the Christian would tolerate and love the Jews, because the prophets of God were chosen from among them, right from Moses to Jesus Christ.! If they still refuse to believe, the judgement will b from God, not man. God has always had a way of dealing with them, long before now.
Israel is a country with small population (10m) so there can be more Christians in Iran or any other country than Israel. But what matters is that how are such Christians treated in Iran?
Go and watch how members of ISIS brutally beheaded and murdered Egyptian Coptic Christians and one Ghanaian Christian in Libya. What influenced them to do that if not religion?
