Donaldoni:
Everything under Buhari and Emefiele was FAKE and UNSUSTAINABLE. We were heading for economic perdition!

I can't be sorry for you as you don't have eyes to see where were the economy is headed. Keep giving excuses, you go explain tire

RIP sir, he helped people in his constituents with jobs, and empowerment, Ibadan North Federal Constituency

Shattuck:
iwobi is still one of the best passer of the ball in the team, his play may not be commanding enough.

from the midfield we have no one better than him currently in the team and thats what many fail to see in his game for the super eagles

nairalanda1:
They can , but it won't raise enough funds for subsides

To keep fuel below 200 naira per liter would eat two thirds of our budget. Meaning no money to even pay basic salaries , talkless of looting

Apc is still worng for excess spending though. There is a reason why I never voted for them

that was why i wanted obi even if he was making tough decisions as tinubu might be making but i was sure he would cut down the running cost of government and over inflated contracts being awarded

nairalanda1:
Peter Obi was the best candidate, no be lie, but let's be honest, under Obi, we would have had the same result.

By May 2023, the results of decades of borrowing to pay for subsides since the late 1970's was in, and we had a lot of debt from maintaining subsides, which, among other things, was contributing to debt eating 99% of our government revenue.

At the end, and please let's put politics aside, APC, PDP, LP and company, Igbo and Yoruba aside......how are you going to pay for subsides with debt servicing eating 90% of our revenue? Is it by miracle, or by more loans while we wait for the results of good policies.?

Whoever took over, we were in dire straits. Either subsides were removed, or we got into taking more loans...to the point where debt would be eating something like 150% of our revenue. Then we go see shege...real shege.

The annoying thing about this APC government is that they are still doing the same old looting, and same old sharing money, but vote in Obi, and nothing could be done....and even if he raised prices to N400 , it would just be what Buhari was doing all this time ....which worsened the debt situation in the first place...among other causes.

I effing hate to sound like I am defending this government, and lord knows I don't like being called an APC supporter, when I have not voted for either big parties since I started voting., and when I have been suspicious of tinubu since 2005 (when Gani raised questions about his certificate back then)....but in 2023, may... this is what was happening.

debt service was eating 90% of our revenue
Subsidy funding was going to run out by June ending...no matter what tinubu did...and the only way to get subsidy back was by either taking more loans, or removing it to get more extra money, and then using some of that to fund subsidy.

And even now the subsidy that tinubu brught back is causing us more issues...debt has risen again.


What magic would you perform to keep fuel below N200 Per liter, without taking loans and suchlike.?


AM sure you would call me agbado.......but we were in a shitty situation, and it was godawful. Make no mistake, vote Obi, vote Kwankwaso....it would have produced the same result re oil prices.

Yes, I am angry with APC, and they are useless.....but politcs aside, unless you have a pot filled with 130 trillion naira....no way we were going to keep fuel prices low.


The problem with Nigeria is that we keep making the same mistakes over and over again, whoever is in charge , because we don't want to do the right thing, and we don't want to end corruption.

yet they cannot cut the cost of running government. Continue u go explain tire

Thundafireseun:
And he had to looooose to Monday who cannot spell Tuesday….

The people you are talking about, decide to vote Monday that promised to bring Insecurity back to EDO STATE….

I pity you

Remove the rigging aspect, you don't understand edo people. Edo people go for who is capable no bi by english. The Monday has good antecedents as a worker. Also this is the first time since 1999 a governor would emerge from Edo Central senatorial district.

If you don't understand edo politics keep quiet

Thundafireseun:
This election showed me two things
1… Wike sincerely and single-handedly made Obaseki PDP governor …

2… Go against Wike and loooooose your Steeeeze 😁

not really, the people feel Obaseki did not perform that was why the PDP lost

DeLaRue:
If Mr Jonathan had been a strong leader with conviction, he would have gone ahead and removed fuel subsidy as he wanted.

Instead, he panicked at the sight of a protesters in Ojota and promptly changed his mind.

You can't blame anybody but Mr Jonathan himself for his failure to remove subsidy.

If he had removed it then, the trillions and trillions that Nigeria lost to subsidy over the years would not have been the case.

yet this same government were the persons who sponsored that 2012 protest abeg e

Emu4life:
Sir, with all due respect, your take has no substance. A player will only score Goals for the Teams he has played/playing for. Thank you

point duly noted, thanks

Emu4life:
Messi spent most of his Career in Barca (21 years), or you expect him to be playing for Barca and be scoring for Chelsea? What kinda dumb disposition is this

if you failed to comprehend it shows how dumb you are

BitterTruth0001:
140 goals in 183 games . That’s goal ratio of 0.77

But Messi has 129 goals in 163 games .

Goals ratio of 0.79

Messi is still the King

in how many teams was he able to achieve that, messi did most of it with Barca while Ronaldo achieved this with man u, real and juve

Rest on brother

This is unthinkable wickedness and evil. Civil servants will save pension only to retire and discovered it has been embezzled or fraudulent abused and no one is being held to accountability.

you know the worse part, ones savings become devalued that by the time you are out, someone's contribution of 30 million can't even buy a house by then or naim Dem go use take buy moto

franchasofficia:
Nigeria's constitution did not say you must win core North and core Southwest to win Nigeria's Presidential election.

I can swear with my life that Peter Obi won the majority vote in the last Presidential election but whether he got the spread is something I cannot say since INEC didn't allow us know the actual truth by being fair.


But as for majority of votes cast, I can swear with anything that Peter Obi won.

Peter Obi's votes that were slashed and reduced in Lagos, Rivers, Plateau, Benue and Nasarawa alone is more than 3 million votes


As for Labor Party winning majority in Senate and House of Reps, I can boldly tell you that Peter Obi's supporters in the last Presidential election weren't interested in who became Senator or Reps and they weren't Labor Party members, they were only interested in voting Peter Obi to emerge President hoping his emergence will put other things in place with time.


I voted APC Senatorial candidate because I like the man, I knew him personally. I voted LP for Rep and President.



That was how Peter Obi and most Obidients voted in the last Presidential election; we were not voting party but candidates based on their individual personalities

on point

ALTERNATEID:
Too bad for Rishi Sunak. For someone of Indian heritage, he took over as PM at the worst time possible. Managing the economic challenges that came with Covid-19 has been difficult all over the world. No magic could have made him win the election.

Congratulations to Keir Starmer. This is a very massive victory that was thought impossible just five years ago. Now that he will be assuming office as PM, it’s time to face the reality and walk the talk. He will no longer be the opposition leader criticizing everything and making the man in office look so bad. Let’s see the magic he will perform in the next one year.

To those bad losers from Nigeria, there is a lesson here for you guys. The losers accepted defeat without blaming anyone or lying that they won. The leader of the party that came third did not go on live TV to falsely claim they won the election unlike in Nigeria where a candidate that couldn’t even get 25% of vote cast in 15 states somehow started claiming he won the election.

You dey talk say the third position when obi get na 1 million vote e be. Na 6 million something vote oh and remain small e for pass the second person when still get 6 million something vote oh

kachi666:
Thanks for the response. Well understood. What documents do I need to reregister the car and get a new plate number? And if I decide to keep using the old plate number, is there any trouble, after I get affidavit and purchase receipt?

These document may vary from state to state, my best bet is enquire at the licencing office in your state what their requirements are and it's total cost.

kachi666:
Please guys I need clarification or better understanding about my car documents. I purchased a Nigeria Used car and I'm the 3rd buyer, the original importer, sold it to someone who sold it to me. On the day of purchase, we went to court to change of ownership, affidavit and also purchase receipt, the car documents were all carrying the original importer names, including the road worthiness, licenses, insurance and the rest.

I want to know, why the car documents renewal is still showing the original importer details instead of my name. Also, all the documents like insurance, road worthiness, license, new proof of ownership certificate, is showing the original importer details, why can't this be changed to my name? Do I need to change the car plate number? Can I use Ogun State car license, road worthiness in Lagos state?

Please I need help on these

you would need to get a new plate number and reregister the car if you want it to bear your name

Not sure if this is the right forum, but I am unhappy, as I type this message, I think it is usually too late to cry when the head is cut off, but i will cry anyways.

I have been married for 6 years now and brethren it has not been easy, I think I married a wrong person, am not a perfect neither is she, i just think we are not compatible. There is is no love between us. Our values are different. Me and my wife dont get along, well.

We have just been tolerating each other. I only realize what i am missing because i recent caught feelings for this colleague of mine. So there is this colleague of mine, we have worked together for almost 2 years now but more related to work. I have started catching feelings for this girl o and it all started in a party we attend together. I know she too has feeling for me. I see it in her eyes. She comes to sit with me, and we talk about alot of private stuff. She tells me all that is happening in her life, i also do same. she knows I am married with kids but i am sure if i make a move she will agree. I never could imagine I will find myself in a situation, tempted to commit adultery. When i have a wife at home, this opened my eyes and push me to want resolved the relationship issue with my wife. I approached her some days ago to voice my concern that the marriage is not working, we dont communicate, there is no love, what can we do to resolve the matter. My wife said she is used to our situation. I asked what can we do differently and she says we shd go see a marriage counselor. I said fine but can we even discuss and she tells me she is tired she wants to sleep and then stops responding to me.

My wife prefers to sleep alone, despite me telling her we shd sleep together as a couple. if she is in the room and I come to the room she will immediately goes to the parlor, we rarely have body contact. The few times we have sex she never kisses even when i try, she puts her mouth away. Even in the car we can be on a drive for 1 hr, without mentioning a word to each other. Most times it is either the car radio or my kids that break the silence. What surprises me is she is very comfortable with it, you just see her on her phone. The only saving grace is I have a source of income and provide for the home that why she listens sometimes.

Reflecting back on if i had to opportunity i wont have married her, she has caused me alot of pain. she doesnt play that supportive role expected of a wife, she has this feminist tendency. She also has this ego issue and find it difficult to take feedback, whenever i raise an issue, she just get very upset and in many times it turns into a fight. There are days I fall sick, my wife no send o. Even cooking for me is like stress. She goes out without telling me, does things without getting my consent or even carrying me along. When she brings people to the house, she wont even introduce them to me as her husband. she doesnt send respect or regards me. I tell you an example of something that happened last year, we were travelling November last year to the UK on holidays with the children, because of our luggages we took two uber vehicles, I sat in one with my daughter, my wife sat in the other with my son. While on the way to the airport, do you know my wife asked the driver to take a detour to shoprite that she wants to give someone the left over stew and food items we had. Shoprite is not on the way to the airport, we had less than 2 hours to go for an intentional flight. It was me that noticed their car going a different direction, I had to call the uber driver to tell him to turn back immediately. When the uber guy came he told me he had asked my wife to mention it to me, but she said no need, I dont need to be told. We got to the airport while offloading the luggage from the car, my wife suddenly disappeared. I had 8 boxes , 2 children to move with. Thank God for those people that help with the luggage at the airport. I passed through customs and NDLEA and began to clear with the airline before she showed up. I was so mad, even a custom lady was yelling at her, how can you just disappear leaving your husband with all the loads and children. My wife didnt even apologize, she said she went to drop the food items with the person she asked to come to the airport, after i asked the uber driver to reroute to the airport. That is how disunited we are.


The good side is not cheating, and she is spiritual, she can go to church 10 times a week, currently serves in 2 units and hold leadership roles in those unit. I have told her if she give 20 percent of the time in church to our relationship and family we would be happier. The major complain she mentioned from my side is we shd go out together more often, she wants me to organize morning devotions, that we shd pray more with the children, this was something I believe her dad did when they were growing up, the experience is different for me. I have told her I will try. She also mentioned I like to complain, which is not true.

This whole thing is hitting me hard cos I dont want to cheat with my colleague and i just experienced a glimpse of what we shd be enjoying. I also have the chance of relocating to the Australia but i knw if we do, I will enter one chance.

Does anyone knw a good marriage counselor, that can be recommended, I saw one done by one of this popular pastor they are asking for $150 for a 1hour session, I also dont want to involve my family or her family.

I am tempted to just leave the house for 2 weeks and go stay in an hotel, but how will that help it will only make matters worse.

From all you wrote up there, my brother it hasn't crashed. Marriage is hard work put effort into it rather than looking for an easy way out through fornication
