A lot of footballers drive minis. Nothing to see here.

Firefire:
Even the terrorist organization called APC promised Nigerians restructuring as part of their FAKE promises and campaign manifesto.

Those idiots promised all manner nonsense that they had no intention of doing.

You xtians are so confused.

You have a Bible (which most of you have not read).

Why not read it instead of asking if is "biblical"?

OChimex:
Lol. Honestly Nigeria is really a stupid horror film, but appears to look like a comedy.

Imagine the fate of the world now If the Western world were still wasting their times in frivolities like they do in Africa.

While the rest of the world are on high speed train moving forward, development-wise, Africa is on high speed train but on reverse moving to the time the world began.

21st century technology.

19th century thinking.

myners007:
It is evident that you are suffering from believe it all syndrome . Since u know about designers, what is the make of the short he is wearing in the pix. Suppose the short was bought from okrika because he is a star and thats make it automatically a designer brand. Fake life is not good for u young soul. I used to reason like u before i became successful in life.

You have failed to grasp the overriding point.

1. How do you know how much those shorts cost? Do you have proof?

2. Why do you care what another man wears?

Ibukunmer:
I could see foreign hands all over this property. The concept, finishing is beyond most developers in Nigeria.

It could easily be done by Nigerian developers.

The concept isn't novel. And the finishing depends on the experience and time taken by the labor.

myners007:
He is rich yet he wears cheap knicker(shorts) like small pikin up and down. Why are u guys picking on me? Do you think he looks like the owner of the apartment judging by his appearance and dressing.In my own opinion, he looks more like a janitor in the house.

People like you are so dumb it's untrue.

1. You don't know how much those shorts cost or where he bought them

2. So what if they are cheap? It's loungewear, it's for comfort around the house. You expect for him to wear agbada at home? Or maybe you think he should wear suit and tie.

Abjay97:
Lol.. and you think they will follow you to come back?
If finding a job in russia is hard, they can use the little money they have and take a train to Ukraine or Kazakhstan.. If they use the ukraine route, they can now 'form' stranded African Migrant and get help.. With help gotten, they can now proceed south to Germany or Spain OR
North to Sweden or Norway..

Dont come back empty handed to a country(Nigeria) that doesnt necessarily function.

However nice one Ambode

You people will never learn.

Once you get to Europe they will send you back.

They have no need for you.

Those countries have their own issues to contend with.

Their people fought for their rights. Fought for decent political systems.

Meanwhile Africans keep crying about a lack of political and social progress whilst clinging to stupid cultural practices that in some cases are literally causing death.

English people are thugs.

What else is new...

Healer killed in 'bullet-proof' charm test


A self-styled traditional healer in Nigeria has died after one of his clients tested his "bullet-proof" charms on him.

Chinaka Adoezuwe, 26, was killed after instructing the man to shoot him as he was wearing the charms around his neck.

Police in the country's south-eastern Imo state say the client has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

Charms are popular in Nigeria, where traditional healers are consulted for cures for various ailments.

But there have been several reports of people being killed after testing "bullet-proof" charms and medicines.

"A young man had gone to [the healer] to prepare bullet-proof charms for him, which the native doctor did," a villager told the Punch newspaper.

"To prove the efficacy of the new charms, [he] positioned and handed over a gun to his customer. Tragedy struck."

In January, a traditional medicine seller was arrested after a man drank a "bullet-repelling" liquid and was shot dead.

The seller in north-western Nigeria reportedly assured the man that he could not die if he was shot.

TEYA:
No one said he should give birth to "multiple poorly clothed" kids. He should also caster for them!

If he doesn't want children why are you trying to pressure him into having them?

Does Nigeria need more reluctant, unprepared parents?

TEYA:
You are young now and strong. You are surrounded by friends. You have the strength to carry out every task you like. But one day, you will be old and feeble and alone. You will watch your married friends play with their grand kids and travel from time to time to visit their children and grand children while you will be stuck to your dogs. You will wish to change things but it will be too late. It is no too late to make the right choice now. There is a love that dogs cannot offer.

What love are you talking about?

The OP seems like a reasonable, compassionate soul - the complete opposite from the average careless, irrational Nigerian who thinks that having multiple poorly clothed, poorly fed and poorly educated children is somehow a sign of wealth.

Nobody should feel compelled to have children or get married.

OP is far more responsible than the majority of Nigerians who feel the need to do the above because everyone else is doing so.

gberra:
The Administration of president Buhari is rewriting history. The judicial justice system which was compromised by Gej is now getting saner.
To the children of corruption in the east, check her name, she is yoruba, we don't tolerate corruption.

-truth burns

I don't go in for tribalism but can you explain why the south west has tolerated Tinubu if you "don't tolerate corruption"?

Someone should have hidden/destroyed Onazi's passport.

Category1:
Joel and onazi in midfield is brutal to the fans watching.
Those guys should be playing in Nigeria local street

I've been saying for years that Onazi has no business playing international football.

At least Joel Obi has the excuse of having not played much international football recently.

Simug:
The five children are his for those that dont no, he married his long time girlfriend.

They are not all his. This woman was married before and was cheating on her husband with Fabregas.

I hope they have a proper transport plan for this port and don't just rely on vehicular traffic.

mansakhalifa:
First of all Google this: How Zik stopped Nigeria from breaking up in 1957 and see the result you will get.

At that conference,the British granted autonomy to the Eastern and Western region,whilst scheduling that of the Northern region for 1959.

From my little research[reading and documentaries] and what the old men in my family told me,the British had toyed with a plan to split their 1914 creation i.e. Nigeria into 3 separate countries. That would have meant that the Eastern and Western and Northern Regions would have been allowed to go their separate ways.

But unfortunately,guess who truncated it?
NCNC supremos.

Hope this helps...?

I stopped laying the blame squarely at the foot of the British after I read that damning chapter of that history textbook that hot afternoon.

Yes, I was aware of how both the East and the West (at various points) have deceived themselves into thinking that they can control the north and reign in the Jihadist tendencies of the Fulanis.

Apparently nothing has been learned over the past 100 years because the same mistake was made during the last election.

The poverty rate has increased.

Unemployment has increased.

The useless man they brought from Lagos to fix the power problems has pushed the issue into the hands of the citizens.

The man from Lagos brought in to increase tax revenue will not say how much is being brought in from each state.

Boko Haram are scaring people in the north into keeping their children out of school.

Where is this poverty reduction?

mansakhalifa:
Not just that. That was '53. During the constitutional crisis that followed Enahoro's motion.

I am talking about the conference of 1957. Remember what happened?

No. Do tell.

mansakhalifa:
True...

But then,did you know that we missed a slim chance to reconstruct history sometime between 1957 and 1959?

If you 've read what I 've read,then you will know what I know and what I mean.

I know that they were crying about how they wanted to leave the union and some foolish people told them not to.

But there was also pressure on both sides from the useless British who like to stir up chaos and destruction wherever they set their ugly feet.

Amalgamation Day was one of the worst days in African history.

marvelli:
Seriously didn't she notice that she couldn't call or he couldn't pick up his calls at certain times? They were dating for a year and she never visited his home? They were dating for a year sef and they weren't even friends on Facebook! She was never serious about him otherwise she would have noticed.

People don't take calls for all kinds of reasons, often because of work.

And some people choose not to put their relationships on Failbook.

Not visiting his home in a year is odd.

Regardless, she's learned a hard lesson.

kobosmart:
ok ok silence Afonja
now go and get me a bottle of beer and tell your daughter to seat on my lap

I'm not "Afonja" either.

kobosmart:
silence you second class Nigerian, now go and get me size 42 jeans and size 44 canvass

I'm not Igbo.

Nice try though.

The fact that they are on your mind suggests that they occupy a station higher than you.

kobosmart:
hmmm I see the Nigerian Flat head tribe tradition has been extended to zambia

It has nothing to do with Igbos, I don't know why they are on your mind.

Women all over the world do this - marry for 'convenience' and then leave when they can finally support themselves. It's glorified prostitution but they get away with it because the average man is a dolt.

He cannot stop those who claim to work in his name from raping children or stealing from the impoverished or giving woeful advice (telling people not to use contraceptives in the middle of a HIV/AIDS epidemic, for example).

Nigerians are too easily deceived by public displays.

userplainly:
Who ever a country is choosing as a minister that will represent her should not only have the will and commitment but also LOOK the part!.... APPEARANCE SAYS ALOT ABOUT SOMEONE!... moreover is Lai Mohammed, Minister of petroleum and Minister of Education doing a good job for the country Oga noh provoke me o! must u quote?

I did not claim that either is doing a good job but rather you should reserve your comment for their actions as opposed to their clothing.

Nigerians are obsessed with appearance, oftentimes at the expense of making a clear assessment on performance.

userplainly:
Lai Muhammed wee not come here now o!.. wen e reash to praise Senegal e go come out!.....plus why are our ministers so old, local and outdated? See sport minister will always wear agbada! evrytime I see lai Muhammed I always feels ashamed!. ok see minister of petroleum ( OF NIGERIA O) wen e finally wore suit I nearly Cry! we need new power o! true

You should be more concerned with what they do and say than what they wear.

There's nothing wrong with wearing Agbada. It does not impact ones ability to be effective as a minister.

BrosPeter:
Who is going to visit a slum? You better clean up Lagos before thinking of tourists.

Don't worry, they're not going to your father's house.

They will go to the civilized places - Lekki, Ikoyi, VI.
