Great School infrastructure ? where?

Do you know there are some school in Ibadan where students still sit on the floor to learn (not to talk of the outskirt of ibadan) ?

Do you know the state hospital is still thrown into darkness at night? They do child's delivery in darkness? Are you aware ?

how much is a bag of rice before your emilokan failed government came into office and how much is it now? Even if you claim to be a billionaire in Nigeria which i do not have any right to doubt your claim, at least we all know 80-90% of Nigerians are poor. Nigeria has been a poor nation over the past 30-35 years but APC came and make it worse that most households cannot afford 3 square meal daily. Only in Africa, Nigeria doesn't come close to top 10 nations with decent minimum wage, while your corrupt leaders are one of the highest paid politicians in the world.

Like i told you, US has food banks for the few vulnerable ones to eat freely without knowing anyone or belonging to a political party.

A cleaner in US can build a mansion in Nigeria, while a level 17 in government civil service or a bank manager will struggle to build.

Tinubu has turned Nigerians to almajiri and food bandits. Nigerians cannot see a lorry or trailer carrying food items now without looting it grin

Even a toddler know say your country is gone grin

I repeat, your view of the US is through movie.

A cleaner in the US would build a mansion in Nigeria ? You are such a jester grin grin.

You guys just talk in the name of exaggeration. Do you know what a mansion is?

What do you make of US? A country-generating dollars? I have seen your kinds in the US, being in the US and still asking where is the US. , when reality doesn't match his expectations.

but in Nigeria we have many. At least 80% of Nigerians cannot afford 3 square meal daily nor have the means to buy a bag of rice that is less than $55. In America they have food banks for those who cannot afford to feed. It's total free and they do not have to belong to a political party or know someone before they could have access to it. Do you have that here in Nigeria?

You are shifting the goalposts. Before, you said Americans don't beg for alms, Americans always eat three square meals.

I bust your bubbles and now you are changing the narrative.

Your only view about America is through movies and hearsay. You are not in a position to argue with someone who lives there.

If your life is not better in Nigeria, that doesn't mean other people's life are like yours

are they poor that an average American citizens cannot afford to feed? An average American citizens cannot afford 3 square meal daily? Are they so poor that they cried to their president that they're Hungry? Are they so poor that they loot any lorry carrying food or any warehouse filled with food items just for them to feed? Are they so poor that their children doesn't have access to quality education, but instead they are being sent out to beg for alms before they could feed?

The poor ones over there will automatically become rich or at least a middle class when they return to Nigeria. Does that applies to poor Nigerians if given Free visa to US or Canada? Will their naira currency makes them automatically become rich when they land there and convert their money to USD?

Yes, some Americans cannot afford 3 square meals.

Some Americans beg for alms on the street as well.

So, you do not know about this?

At least they are paid for the job, we'll paid. E easy to earn 12pounds for nightshift for care home, earn 15 quid for sanitation officer plus paid overtime and holiday. Have you seen refuse collectors or security asking anything for the boys. In Nigeria person clearing gutter they will pay him 2k after 8 hours work. Road cleaners will work everyday for 15k a month, lawma boys will be looking like horror movie and still asking anything for the boys. Let's not talk of security, cleaners, private school teachers. Abeg japa and forget all these failed leaders whose children are abroad but discouraging you not to japa

Those doing menial jobs abroad are not well paid as you think.

By the standard of the country where they live (e.g, UK, US, Canada), they are still classified as "poor" and they live as such over there.

It is only if they change the money that it seems big here.

If the exchange rate of dollar to naira is close, you will see exodus of people coming back into Nigeria.

That's a lie. He was sacked because of the Redeemed GO controversy as well as accusation of sexual harassment.
His story is in the public domain

Thank you so much.

Obazee advised the FG at that time to ensure that General Overseers of churches were not allowed to hand over to their children and they should retire after spending certain years as GO.

It was then Baba Adeboye retired as the GO of Redeemed Church Nigeria and handed over to Pastor Joshua Obayemi.

Where is Pastor Joshua Obayemi now?

Who is still the GO of RCCG Nigeria as we speak?

The VP then, who was a RCCG member, might have pulled the string that got Obazee sacked then.

did he or did he not ask for N2b?

I dont see anything wrong so far.

The guy did not steal any money.

He requested to be paid a professional service fee. So, what was wrong in that?

Nigerians must learn to pay professionals their true worth. I have seen a case where an engineer spent just 2 minutes to fix a problem and he demanded for 10k. The client was arguing that how many minutes did he spend on the job, He was a professional for crying out and he charged what he considered commensurate.

The risk to his life and that of his children and his staff should be considered too. I would not mind paying 2 billion to block a leakage or recover 200 billion.

Corrupt CBN staff wants to taint the guy. If CBN staff had been effective in their jobs, there would not be a need to bring Obazee.

Corruption is codedly fighting back as usual.

it will always be unreliable once it didn't favour your myopic brain. I am also a Yoruba guy like you but you seriously need to stop being tribalistic for once and give ciser what belongs to ciser. Igbo men are very much industrious and hard-working than we Yoruba men. Igbo men hardly marry more than one wife and they do take good care of their wives and children compare to Yoruba men. Igbo illiterates can still communicate in English compare to Yoruba illiterates. Igbo has good delicacy more than Yoruba. Igbo married women are not that loosed compare to Yoruba married women. Igbos are more cleaner than we yorubas.

If you don't have the funds, don't start any project for now, reinvest in your business or start a new one. You need insane amount of money to build anything like house now.

I will not agree with this.

I almost toed the same line but my bricklayer advised me not to. Today, I am thankful for that advice.

Thank you.

I never knew it was called "stone coated".

Please can you educate me on this. I was told there were so many fake stone coated roofing out there.

I have seen houses built within a year and the roofing fading off terrible, thus the aesthetic of the building is badly impacted.

Are there things to look out for to be certain one is buying the original material.

It is quite devastating buying fake stone coated materials at an exorbitant prices.

1. They could use an existing valid API auth from a bona fide licensee and piggyback their own app on it. Most likely scenario

2. MITM attack, if the NIMC security is not robust. Less likely but quite possible

3. Internal agents via social engineering or outright compromise...very common

1. I doubt the fact that a bona fide licensee can share the authentication credentials with them knowing fully well they are competitors.

2. I doubt that MITM attack can be responsible as the credentials are encrypted over the wire, and if it is tampered with, the authentication will not go through.

3. The credentials (especially the key) on prod environments are always known to one or two persons. They need to conduct rigrorous investigation to pin it on someone

Only God knows what they have been able to do with people's data.

Religion / Re: Why Do Some Great Pastors Die Young Despite Healing Many by MT: 10:04am On Mar 17
CaptainJune:
The Lord Jesus died young at the age of 33. This is after He had fulfilled His ministry. Yes, Jesus is the Great Apostle of the Christian faith. Whether you are called to the fivefold ministry or not you are free to go home to be with the Lord after you have fulfillled your ministry.

I agree with the Op regarding other factors that take heavy toll on their health but this also applies to everyone. As such, pastors are humans like any of us. The key here is to take care of one's health. Moses' father-in-law, Jethro, advised him to delegate duties to the Israelites so as not to be overburdened by them. Had he not done so Moses would have probably died earlier than he did.

Some pastors also do face the warfare (bizarre according to wordly standards) aspects of their calling such as helping an individual, family, community, or nation be delivered from satanic strongholds that may have been running for generations. Some pastors confront these demons (princes and rulers of wickedness) without proper spiritual mapping and preparation. This results in the death of some of this pastors. One has to be anointed and directed by God before embarking on spiritual liberation against evil entities.

Jesus had a special assignment to do on earth. You could not quote Jesus'age as the standard. Don't spin the narrative.

God has a covenant of 70 years with the people on earth. The op was simply asking, why did some pastors die before this time promised to us by God .
Crime / Re: ยฃ400,000 Fraud: Three Nigerians Jailed in UK by MT: 9:30am On Mar 17
Gerrard59:


Why should they when the strongest passports are from white dominated countries? However, in cases where whites naturalise, they celebrate/cherish it. Such as Singapore. Indians, Pakistanis and Filipinos celebrate their naturalisation. Nothing stops Nigerians or other Africans from doing the same. It is an achievement on its own.

When I read the bolded, I knew you have not traveled out before. You are one of those we are trying to shape their worldview.

First of all, those you mentioned (at the bolded) are not classified as "whites". Your kind is the one that will see a Chinese and be worshipping him as "white".

Two, do you know that during the Brexit, the EU citizens working in the UK were offered British citizenship. Large numbers of them considered it as insults and they declined, they went back to their countries. A German would rather die as a German than a British.

Three, do you realize that there was a time in the past, Nigerians landing at British airports were offered British citizenship at the port of entry, which majority of them declined. It was a thing of beauty to be a Nigerian then. Nigerians did not need visa to travel to the UK, but tell me what percentage of them travelled then? Very few, and Nigerians were enjoying in their country.

Four, stop seeing changing of nationalities (citizenship) as an achievement. It is just a mean to an end, not the end itself. Citizenship doesn't stop you from being homeless or jobless or dying poor. You need a robust, much sought-after skill sets to be gainfully employed in the western world. Even if you don't have their citizenship, their companies will file for work permit for you and you can work. You become a global citizen since any company can file for work permit for you from any country. You become their bride whom they want at all costs.

I will advise you to be consciously exposed to the global events and expand your perspective about life. Learn and unlearn.
