Just this morning, my female neighbor brought this Oha Soup for me after I apologized to her yesterday over our last fracas. (I brought a girl home, and we had an issue.).

Please note, I have no entanglements with this my neighbor as im not sexually attracted to her even though she’s single and I am too.

I have started eating already, as this is my breakfast to work this morning.

After you finish eating the food, you will have energy;
The energy must be useful and will be eventually used for something; sooner or later.
We go hear!

KarlTom:
A link or case number would be good.

Regardless, OandO is destined to rise considering all the recent acquisitions and partnerships.

The link to the info page (nairametrics) was provided; but we all can also do some checks to confirm.

Phlinx:
And let's not forget their financial statement for 2022. We might actually see a peak of N25

Oando's financial statement for 2022 may not be fantastic; it seems they recorded some losses, based on extracts in the 2021 audited accounts.
But their FY2023 results will be much better because the price of oil has been relatively high through out the year.
I am seeing Oando in the range of N35-N50 soon after the release of their FY2023 results, provided the delisting no longer occurs.

Pesuzok:
Aside from the fear of delisting Oando, all eyes should be on the day oando will conclude with Naoc. Expect massive bull from that day.

Buying NAOC makes oando an operator in the E&P

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: 5 SHAREHOLDERS APPLY TO FED. HIGH COURT TO SET ASIDE ORDER TO DELIST OANDO
I just read that some 5 shareholders have applied to the Federal High Court to set aside the order granting OODP the the right to acquire minority shareholdings in OANDO PLC.

This could mean a new twist in the whole case.

Ethnic affiliation is different from Linguistic affiliation.
Yes, Yoruba is more spoken in US, UK and Canada bcoz most Yorubas especially elderly ones speak it as their first language and are generally chatty, noisy and loquacious.
Igbo people are now awakening in terms of speaking their language and identifying with the language.
Where I served at Sokoto during our Nysc days, we thought Yorubas were the most numerous Nysc corp members until we were given a breakdown of State of Origin of all NYSC members in my stream.
Out of 2100 NYSC members, 991were from Southeast, the southwest had 657, the North and South South had the rest. But in almost all the Lodges, even in my own lodge where there are 12 Igbos and 8 yorubas, you would be thinking that all of us were ethnically YORUBAs bcoz Yorubas there are chatty, loquacious, noisy and talkative.

The reason is because of the Lagos factor; more Nigerians are able to speak Yoruba because a lot of people have either lived in, visited or were born or bred in Lagos and environs.
Yoruba are not more chatty, loquacious, noisy, talkative than the Igbo.

Gamesmart:
I really struggle to believe there are more Yorubas in the USA than Igbos.

I am suspecting maybe Yorubas just teach their kids their indigenous language more than Igbos.

There are more Yorubas in the UK than Igbo. I struggle to believe that is also the case in the USA.

A lot more Yoruba travelled using the education route which was the more popular and viable avenue for traveling to USA and Canada, followed by businesses.

Difrent:
FAKE NEWS
And
Israeli propaganda.

They didn't surrender
Israel just arrested them indiscriminately
And it was in West bank not in Gaza.

You are also quoting Al Jazeera propaganda!.
You could see clearly that the people in the huge dug hole are in the Gaza war front.

Sultty:
I want u to take note that it is "hamas"not Palestines that surrender to Israel and by God grace the two state solution will see the light of day. Enough of this occupations and provocations

Occupation by who?
The Arabs (so called Palestinians) are living on the land that belong to the Jews/Israelis. Go read your Koran Chapter 5:20-21 and the Bible if you care to know.

OANDO is not doing badly, some peeps are selling off their stocks massively

We are waiting to buy more of Oando (if possible), at the desired price range.
Let the price go further down.

opicgif:
i want to go back to school
to study law
ive always wanted to do this but felt i would be too old
as of last year, ive seen a lot of older people graduating or in law school
rotimi amaechi is an example

which private university can i go to, and still live off campus with my family
i am in rivers state
i am excluding RSU and Uniport,
i would want to carry out this endeavour without delay from ASUU strikes

any suggestions?

Depending on your financial status and capacity; you can study law in some UK universities, through online/part-time studies e.g. University of London, University of Liverpool etc.
You can also find out schools in Nigeria that offer such programmes, although I think NUC was trying to stop part-time law programmes in Nigerian universities.
If you live or work in a university town/city, it may be much easier

So who were the Jebusites? If you must talk, talk only of the Bible which was written by the people you're trying hard to defend stop erroneously citing Qur'an as your reference. Qur'an didn't mention Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, or Syria; Qur'an is universal in nature not restricted to a specific region. When Allah mention Israel he is referring to Prophet Ya'aqub (Jacob), Israel means servant of Allah, by the way. British didn't create Israel because of that fallacy you called reason. We're matured and wise enough to be fooled by this, pls.

Call Palestinians with their names- Palestinians- not Arabs. Arabic was adopted much later just like Egypt and parts of Lebanon. We know where the Jews migrated from but we don't know where the Palestinians migrated from. After all, Abraham himself migrated there from Iraq.

The Jebusites had been conquered and eliminated by the Jews more than 5,000 years ago, and the ones that remained alive had been assimilated as Jews. That is how it works.
The Scripture, which especially the Bible(and to some extent the Koran) spoke about were centered around events that happened in the area or region that the Romans described as ''Palestine'', which comprised of Israel, Jordan, Sysria, Egypt, Lebanon. These are the people/countries that existed at that time in the region. Did you see any other separate country mentioned in that area called Palestine? No. There is no separate people or tribe or country called ''Palestinians''. Palestine is a name of the region. It does not refer to a separate people.
The word ''Palestine'' was just used to describe the area. It is similar to when you say ''Sahel'', which also comprises of some countries but it does not mean that there a separate people or country called ''Sahelians''

If both the Bible and Koran do not mention any other people/country in the area apart from Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, and Jordan, then IT MEANS THAT THE COUNTRY DID NOT EXIST IN THAT AREA AT THAT TIME!

The Arabs refugees that were displaced from the Jewish lands when the State of Israel was formed decided to adop the word ''Palestine'' or Palestinians in order to lay false claim and create the false impression that the region called Palestine was their original ''tribe'' or country.
They are not the Canaanites and they are not the Jebusites. So let them tell you which tribe they come from.
The Jews are always Jews and they had been living in the land long before the Romans came and called the place ''Palestine''

Even the Koran in chapter 5:20-21 also says that God gave the land of Israel to the Jews through Moses but your Arabic and Islamic teachers who hate Israel have manipulated your understanding of the Koran.

FiftyFifty:
Who did the David conquer Jerusalem from? You should have told us.

You need to be educated about this Arabs you have been calling since. That people speak Arabic doesn't make them originally Arabs. Egyptians will tell you more on this. The current English wasn't at a time the language of England. Refer to the Palestinians with their name- Palestinians, not Arabs.

Do you expect the Qur'an to talk about every country in the world? Well, Qur'an didn't talk of Saudi Arabia too, or Indonesia, the most populous Muslim country; what about that? Did Bible talk of America?

Claiming that Palestinians migrated there during the Othmans shows that you know next-to-nothing about the history of the land in question. When was the Othman empre established? If people under the Othmans should migrate to the Palestine then it shouldn't be the Arabs but rather the Turks. You thought that the Turks are Arabs, they are not. I see that you avoided Biblical reference to Abraham migrating to Jerusalem from Iraq and David conquest of Jerusalem. Who was there before the two incidents?

British empire didn't create Israel there on historical ground as you claimed but on economic interest. Colonialism was coming to an end, the west then led by Britain wanted to have the Middle in check due to its strategic importance, not only for oil but also for the shipping routes. Do you know that Uganda was first proposed as the Jewish state?

There was no country called Nigeria before 1914, but was there no people in what would later be called Nigeria? So if any ancient book didn't make a mention of Nigeria by your logic Nigeria and Nigerians should go to Mars, right? Lol

Why is Israel not claiming Iraq or Egypt; why Palestine?

I cited these authors for you before- Prof. Ilan Pappe, Uri Avnery, Dan Cohen, and Prof. Edward Said, the first three were Jews while the last was Christians, - they will help you understand whether or not there was Palestine in the past.

David conquered Jerusalem from the Jebusites! Not Palestinians nor Arabs.
Both scripture (Bible and Koran) are centered around events that happened mostly around places between the Iraqi border and the Mediterranean sea (the place that used to be called ''Palestine'') which encompassed names of places, towns, kingdoms in countries like Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria and Egypt. The Koran may talk other places or towns in e.g. Medina.
If both the Bible and Koran did not mention any other country apart from Israel, Lebanon, Eqypt, Syria and Jordan, in the region or area that was referred to as ''Palestine'', then IT MEANS THAT COUNTRY NEVER EXISTED! This is the reason why the British created the State of Israel because Israel was the only country missing in the region after their conquest by the Roman empire.
All the other countries still exist today as they are mentioned by both the Bible and Koran i.e. Lebanon, Israel, Syria, Egypt, Israel
So where do you find a separate country called Palestine? It seems the adoption of the name ''Palestine'' by the Arabs is what is confusing and deceiving you.
The place called West Bank today is Judea and Samaria in the Bible and it was ruled by Jews for thousands of years, long before the Roman empire evicted the Jews. Same as Jerusalem (which is a Jewish name and city) is now being claimed by Palestinians as their capital, even when the Jews had lived in that city for more than 4,000 years before the Arabs came to live there.

Good day nairalanders

I have heard and seen some people who say that on their first date they had sex with the person they are having that date with,and to me it looks weird,it's simply put 'absurd'

Well I don't know what you may think about this but I believe that it is makes you look cheap,makes you look as a person who has no moral boundaries, it reduces your worth before that fellow and generally makes you look s*upid before the fellow even if they won't tell you.

I think it's quite odd and nothing pleasant that you are meeting someone for the first time and what comes to your mind is going to bed with such a person, it ain't funny and it's something that should be discouraged.

That's my humble opinion
What do you think

It depends on the maturity, understanding and respect between the two people involved, and how long and how close and freaky they have known each other. A couple (friends) might have been very close to each other for a very long time such that having sex on a first date is almost a given, especially if the lady is comfortable with the guy.

I don't know what people want to gain from saying that the Bini people founded Lagos, which is obviously false. The Bini people might have lived in riverine area in Lagos, and maybe they had the highest number of people living in the area.
Every Bini man, including the Oba knows that Bini kingdom was founded by Oranmiyan who was a prince from Ile-Ife., the source of the Yoruba race.

I need people with experience on how to manage SS Crisis.
Both my parent are AS and we the kids are 5. I'm the first child and I'm lucky to be AA, the 2nd born AS, 3rd, 4th, 5th - SS.
I have 3 SS siblings and right now most of their responsibility and wellbeing is on me as the first born cuz my P-man is old already.
Just last week I have to rush down to my brother's school to bring him home cuz he called me in the middle of the night weeping cuz the pain is just too much and his roommate isn't around.
My question now is how can it be managed? cuz it's really affecting everybody cuz It's affecting their studies, I'm exhausted right now cuz anytime it happens it's ends with me borrowing funds to send to them and lastly it's sucks happiness out of the atmosphere as hearing a teenager weeping and knowing you can't do anything about it is saddening.

I've seen some people asking if they as AS can also marry AS please and please don't try it as you'll just be bringing innocent kids here just to suffer. The trauma of you seeing your kids in pain sef no be here.

How can SS Crisis be avoided/managed?

I'd have loved my write up to be well detailed but the little I wrote up there took up to an hour cuz my phone is bad.

You experience and advice will be well appreciated. Thanks.

Please go and buy Ciklavit and Nicosan. These are drugs approved for the treatment of sickle-cells

IDF is trying to avenge the death of about 3000 of their men in Gaza.
They have used this ceasefire period to beg for more arms from the United Snakes.

More deaths await them.

And more ''life'' and ''good living'' awaits Hamas, your terrorist friends?
You are busy counting somebody's losses and ignoring the destruction in your territory (Gaza)
You should go join and help Hamas kill the IDF forces so they could die faster! It is Hamas that pleaded for ceasefire, not Israel.

You will know the feedback soonest!

FiftyFifty:
It isn't true that the Palestinians rejected the 2SS five different times as erroneously said repeatedly by people like you, research more. When Yitzhak Rabin the then Israeli PM agreed to implent the 2SS based on the Camp David Summit and the Oslo Accord, he got assassinated by a radical far-right Jew, Yigal Amir. The subsequent Israeli leaders didn't bother to revisit the topic despite global pressure, especially the UN.

It is also not true that the Palestinians were given 80 percent of the land. When Isarel was created in 1948, they were given 56 percent of Palestine and the Palestinians unanimously rejected that. Hagana and Irgun (which would later become IDF), the two notorious Jewish militia embarked on terrorising the Palestinians, even Britain wasn't spared in their terrorism.

According to the Bible, the Jews descended from Abraham who was born in Ur and later migrated to Haran both in Babylonia (today's Iraq), before migrating to Jerusalem at 75. The same Bible also told us that David conqured Jerusalem, the question here is, who did Abraham meet when he first set his foot in Jerusalem? And, who did David conqured the Jerusalem from?

When Christians Kings such as King Heraclitus were killing them (Jews) everywhere for killing their (Christians') God, Muslims gave them shelter. When Hitler, a Christian, attempted to exterminate them; when they were expelled in countries like France, Britain, Spain, Muslims welcomed them. But now?

This isn't about Hamas, it is about justice. Even prominent Jews such as Prof. Ilan Pappe, Dan Cohen, and Uri Avery, among others, have echoed this. So also many prominent Christians like Prof. Edward Said.

Occupation, ethnic cleansing, apartheid, extermination, and brutal oppression shouldn't be encouraged by any person of conscience wether in Ukraine or in Palestine.

At the end, without peace in Palestine, there wont be peace in Israel, this even the EU Chief Baron recently reiterated.

The 2 state solution had been proposed/offered in the past long before Yitzhak Rabin became prime minister in the 90s. but it was rejected by the Arabs.

David did not conquer Jerusalem from the Arabs! The Arabs were not the people living on the land when David conquered Jerusalem.
Ask yourselves why there were many Jewish temples and churches in Jerusalem for several hundreds of years long before the first mosque was built in Jerusalem?

The Arabs migrated to the place now referred to as Palestine only after the Ottoman empire (from Turkey) conquered the region from the Roman empire and took over the whole landscape.
It was the Roman empire that conquered the Jews and drove them away into exile in Europe and other parts of the world. The Ottoman empire then came and defeated the Roman empire and took over the whole land. The Jews could not do anything because they were in the minority and had been sacked by the Roman empire even before the Ottoman empire came.
The Ottoman empire was also defeated by the British empire who looked into history and decided to return the land of the Jews back to them and created a State of Israel. But the Arabs who had been living on the Jewish land during the Ottoman empire decided to revolt because of their eternal hatred of the Jews. They never wanted Israel to exist as a nation.
Mind you, there is no country or state called ''Palestine'' in history. There is no mention of Palestine or Palestinians in the Bible or Koran. But Israel, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria etc are mentioned. The word ''Palestine'' was only used to describe or refer to the region from the Iraqi border to the Mediterranean sea; and comprises of Israel, Jordan, Lebanon and parts of Egypt and Syria.
The so called ''Palestinians'' are the Arab refugees who were earlier living on Jewish lands (taken from the Roman empire by the Ottoman empire) but became displaced when the land was returned to the Jews by the British, and refused to go back to their original countries like Jordan, Lebanon, etc. and rather demanded that they must have another country created for them on Jewish land while Israel must be off.

Putin is a master strategist.

It has nothing to do with Putin!
What is happening in some European countries partly due to the medium to long term effects of Covid-19 pandemic and the change in the demographics of jobs. There are jobs but no enough workers to employ. They saw the problem in late 2022. That is why some of the European countries introduced job search/work visa early 2023 in order to attract more workers to come and work in order to avoid the economy going into recession.
Russia's economy is also suffering but Putin would not allow any negative news to be published so as not to affect the citizens confidence in him and the useless war that he is fighting.
And you are here calling him master strategist. Master strategist my foot!

buJu234:
He is really a master strategic leader..

because all the western countries that placed sanctions on Russia are entering into Recession but the sanctioned country Russia that everyone I tot should have been into Recession and starvation is not in Recession..

Wait oo, does that mean the so called great Western economies (aka G7) are over hyped?

It has nothing to do with Putin!

Their sanctions against Russia is backfiring and African leaders have reduced the deposit of stolen money in Swedish banks.

Some people just type silly things!

How many African leaders do you know that deposited stolen money in Swedish banks? Please list their names. countries and the amount of stolen money that they had deposited in Swedish banks that you know.
If you don't know, Sweden is a country driven by innovation and technology, and have some of the biggest manufacturing, IT and engineering companies in the world e.g. ABB, Volvo, Tetra-Pak, True-caller, Spotify, Atlas Copco, Ericsson, IKEA, Scania etc.
Learn before you type recklessly.
Recession is an economic phenomenon which could be triggered by various factors, especially after disruptions caused by Covid-19

Daddyyin:
But the Swedish are not cursing their country and their leaders.

How would Swedish citizens curse their leaders when the country has been one of the countries with the highest standard of living in the world for decades and their leaders are not known to be corrupt and rig elections to stay in power?
This current challenge is temporary and transient in nature and the people would understand. It is different from a country like Nigeria that has been perpetually mismanaged since independence and citizens don't have access to basic things of life like water, electricity, good roads, social security etc.

FiftyFifty:
Your uncommon hypocrisy is increasingly becoming both irritating and disgusting. From the October 7th, the Isareli settlers together with the IDF have killed more than 250 Palestinians in Ramallah and West Bank. If, according to Israeli, the over 14,000 Palestinians killed in Gaza most of whom women and children are due to Hamas, what about the over 250 killed in West Bank and Ramallah that are under the Israeli occupation? Israel has lost the propaganda war. For the first time in history, CNN is questioning its narrative, even the EU Chief Baron is openly calling for the two state solution which was halted by the Isreali after a radical young Jew Yigal Amir shot and killed the Israeli PM Yitzhak Rabin in 1995 in the presence of over 100,000 Jews attending a peace rally.
Without peace in Palestine, there should be no peace in Israel. You can only deceive the gullible ones.

Can you tell me the original name of West Bank? That is Judea and Samaria in the Bible! How did Judea and Samaria become cities of Arabs?
The bitter truth is that people who call themselves ''Palestinians'' are nothing but descendants of refugee Arabs who had come to live on Jewish land and were displaced when State of Israel was created. They refused to go back to their original Arab countries (e.g. Jordan, Lebanon, Syria etc.) but rather wanted to occupy the Jewish land and claim ownership of Jewish ancestral inheritance. It is all part of the grand plan to see Israel destroyed and wiped off the surface of the earth. They are even claiming that Jerusalem must be their capital! Nonsense!
Israel is mentioned in both the Bible and Koran; there is no Palestine mentioned anywhere!

Shoodboi:
They will soon claim it was Hamas, watch them. In the same Jerusalem where there are no Palestinians. The same Jerusalem fully controlled by Israel. The same Jerusalem where Israel has soldiers and tanks all over. Watch them, they will soon say it was Hamas. They've even identified the shooters as Palestinians. How did they know the dead men are Palestinians? Dead people o.

Please shut up if you have nothing to sensible to say.
Who are the people that worship at the Al Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem? Are they not Palestinians? Who are the people living in the eastern part of Jerusalem? Are they not the Palestinians?
Dead people can be identified; A dead man would have an identity card, passport in his pocket. His biometrics can be used to identify him. Is your brain too confused to understand that?
You know very little or nothing about the place but you want to talk foolish things!

Clueless government desperate for money. Oil price would crash below USD77 after the winter in Europe.
USD 60- USD65 should be the most realistic range for prudent management. But they are banging their hopes on volatile prices that would disappoint them and cause huge budget deficits and attendant deficit financing.

Streetinvestor2:
This is a new angle to me.This could be an isolation case if truely it is not wale behind the delisting. Why are they asking for average of price within 3 months instead of highest market price within three months which I think is the standard. What are we really missing in the whole thing

I guess these shareholders are the ones that Wale said had been settled with about USD600m!
This revelation by Wale is key and should be factored in in whatever analysis we are doing. What is bothering me is the court case that is being adjourned even after the so called 14 minority shareholders had been settled and paid off!
So who is/are the other party/parties still contending with OANDO in the court case if the 14 minority shareholders that went to court had already been settled and paid off?

Truth234:
Governments are not touts that go around looking for buildings under construction. It is the responsibility of builder to ensure his/her site is approved.

What you type does not make sense. Both the people and government are liable.
There is Monitoring and Compliance department in most state agencies. Adequate monitoring would have detected or observed when the buildings were begun, at the foundation stage before completion
You cannot justify lack of proper monitoring and shift the whole burden on the builders.
Monitoring is key to compliance in all civic activities. It is more effective, cost effective and less disruptive. Demolishing buildings after waiting for years for the buildings to be completed is not the best and can be manipulated as weapon for vindictiveness

OakPearl:
My response is neither fundamental, technical, or even sentimental analysis. I call this situation analysis.
How right or wrong it is will only be proven by time as no one knows exactly what is going on with Oando.

If this link is true and the actual status, this is a completely different angle from what has been assumed and debated about Oando all along here.
If 14 minority shareholders want to be bought out, and a specific number of shares was stated, that does not mean the entire minority shareholders of Oando are in court.

Now I am thinking this isolated case has been deliberately blown out of proportion or misreported for selfish reasons to appear as though it is Oando Vs the entire minority shareholders, just to get the generality of minority shareholders to sell off out of panic including those who bought at N5 to happily sell off at their more than 200% profit so they can keep mopping up to their satisfaction, before letting Oando rise to whatever price it should be.

With the court hearing adjourned to as far as February 2024, that further confirms there’s a deliberate attempt to prolong the suspense, uncertainty and fear until they are done buying.

The heavy volume traded in the last one year says a lot about how much money is available to keep buying at the moment.

The battle for the soul of Oando rages on, as we watch the spectacle.
Should this be the real status, holders of Oando who can stay on will hit the jackpot that awaits with their perceived business turn around.

This is a highly informed piece on the possible situation on Oando.
If the court case was specifically for 14 minority shareholders, I am still yet to read any specific court order/judgement to that effect.
But Wale told the AGM that Oando was forced by SEC to settle some shareholders to the tune of USD600m!
Was that settlement sequel to a specific judgement by the court, or purely an out-of-court settlement?
And if the 14 minority shareholders are no longer in the picture, then why is the case still being adjourned farther in court and not struck out? Who is still representing the `14 minority shareholders in court?
Like I said earlier, this Oando matter is full of some possible shenanigans, manipulations, whims, caprices, sentiments, suspense, dealings etc.

Mfunkynation:
Where are our PROPHET?
