He is an Abeokuta man (egba)

His parents are Ekitis but they live in Abeokuta and born and raised all their children including Odunlade in Abeokuta. So Odunlade can be called an Egba man.

How good and how strong are Bontel and Itel phones. They are cheap alright but are they really worth spending money on? Honest opinions please.

That beautiful smile on Governor Amosun's face shows that he is a big fan of Olamide. And come to think of it, very many successful Nigerian musicians are from Ogun state. The likes of Baba Ebenezer Obey, Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Kwam 1, D'banj, Olamide, Adewale Ayuba, Asa etc

Happy married life 2 dem. D wife looks older than him tho

Dejo himself is not as young as people think. Am even surprised that he is just getting married.

"And He went a little farther, and fell on His face, and prayed."
Matthew 26:39.

I pray the way Jesus peace be upon him prayed 5x a day. Jesus peace be upon him prayed to his creator the way we Muslims pray to the creator. Alhumdullah

It seems Muslims read the Bible a lot but they lack the Holy Spirit that is supposed to give them a good understanding of the Holy book.

erico2k2:
They are an essential part of society. The have come to stay .UK.us.have them.

The big question you need to answer is whether in the UK & US you have just mentioned, the Governments of those countries sell foreign currencies to BDCs. We all know that BDCs exist in most countries but they DON'T source their currencies from the Government ( CBN)

Vig86:
I think it is our banks that are causing the whole problem. I am not SURE but I think banks sell dollars(foreign currencies) to BDC for more than official price. That is why banks prefer selling to BDCs to selling tot their customers. I most cases, they will tell you they don't have dollars. This is just what I think. They are rent seekers. BDCs won't mind buying dollars for 250 from lo the banks.

You are the only one that is saying something close to the truth. As a matter of fact, a lot of high ranking officers of CBN are the real owners of BDC licenses. Do you now see that Buhari is not just going against his Northern brethren. He is actually tackling the problem from the roots. He has information!

scachy:
And it's only In Nigeria that one had to go to d Banks or to a particular market just to change or buy few currency notes.

Every other countries have BDCs on d streets that u don't v to go for miles to access them. And government gives a certain percentage of foreign currency to them y the source for the greater percentage. because they operate under Govt regulations

Can you please mention just one country ( apart from Nigeria) where Government give a certain percentage to BDCS to sell. Remember that Nairaland is read all over the world!

scachy:
What kind outdated president do we have for God's sake?

Is there any country that doesn't have BDC operators.
He should look for a way to restructure and regulate the BDCs so as to contribute positively to our economy and not label them scam n drain pipe.

The next thing now he ll scrap them off . Smh

Are you actually saying CBN should continue to sell Dollars to BDCs? Please name one country in the world (apart from Nigeria) where this is done.

ERAKAMUS:
Enor concern me na Abo.ki dey Change money him blodas dem.

Can you please translate what you have just written into English because I cant make any sence of it. And seriously speaking, we don't need the likes of you on this forum.

As long as Hijab is allowed, suicide terrorism will not stop in the North. As a precaution, people in the north should avoid being in the midst of hijab wearing people and to take a run when you see the hijab people approaching in crowded places or large gatherings.

If a country' s economy is good, it means the Customs force of that country is efficient and effective. The first thing that most countries that have developed do is to close their borders to importation of items that can be produced locally. The reason why that policy has always failed in Nigeria is because we have the MOST corrupt Customs in the world. All the importations through Cotonue couldn't have succeeded with a patriotic Customs service.

SillyeRabbit:
First, let our government provide constant electricity.

That is the foundation!

Fiwasayo:
So cute

Yes o. I actually feel like carrying and kissing him.

When abnormality is practised for too long, it will be seen as normal. Nigeria is the ONLY country in the whole world where the Central bank or any bank sell foreign currencies to Bureau de Change. Everywhere else in the world, BDCs source their currencies from tourists, visitors etc who need local currency of host country.

vimi:
Good job buh let Nigerians quit worshiping politician wen they perform well cos they are simply doing their jobs(rendering exceptional service)

It is not a question of worshipping. It is to encourage them do more and make others in position of authority do likewise and even surpass. We are promoting healthy competition to the benefit of the whole nation

Sijo01:
The on lookers that watched her cry to death are more wicked and heartless than the baby's mother. May God punish them all.

AMEN.

kay29000:
SAD. But if a crowd of like 12 people went to the police together with the baby, I don't think things would have turned out ugly as the people thought. Now the baby is dead, and they could have saved her.

You are right. Not a single person out of the crowd could think properly. Pity.

Those benefitting from Oil subsidy will make sure the refineries don't work. what I really don't understand is why every Nigerian Government is reluctant to privatise or sell the refineries.

Rastamann:
Na we dey cause most of these things because many of us don give them the impression say we no dey truthful, so no mata wetin we tak, dem belif say na lie we dey lie. .

Why did you not write in good English. Did you go to school at all?

Saheed9:
The dude might av some insulators

There is no insulation for High Tension wires and Transmission wires. That is why electric power is switched off whenever power workers want to carry out maintenance works. Insulators are used only when working mostly illegally on Low Tension power lines.

seunny4lif:
The English you dey speak since dem born you, you don become Governor

You are one of the miscreants that Nairaland must get rid of. The official language of Nigeria remains good English. Nairaland is read all over the world. Only polished & sensible people should post comments.

cruzita:
Banky w still the cutest

Nooooo! the one on the extreme left is the cutest.

sholatem:
Dem no get abijo for their family ni?to me dey didn't lookalike,all cute though

Are sure your eyesights are ok. You probably need a good pair of glasses.

The Yorubas will say "B'oo lo, o ya nmi" It means if you cant beat them, join them.

mummydirect:
guy man wey no get money yet dey do shakara, abegi helep me ask am wet in him dey find ooooooo, in fela anikulapo's voice " na wahala u dey find, wahala u go get eee ooooooo, wahala u dey find".

Couldn't you write in simple good English? My friend, please show that you attended school now.

Dominiquez:
I am still wondering how we allowed a man who retired 30 years ago and never ran any business but rear cow to come back and become our leader.

Welcome to the cow paradise.

Even if he (PMB) doesn't know what to do, he has technocrats around him whose jobs are to advise him adequately.

nenergy:
Did you hear they were given 13 days FINAL notice?

I go to that electronic/electrical market very often and I can tell you that a lot of Yorubas had shops there. The ratio of Ibo traders to Yoruba traders is about 70% Ibos to 30% Yorubas. The market was demolished partly because of bad security reports about the place.

Sept20:
How come there are 3 men in the first picture and 4 in the 2nd?

Where did the Leader appear from?

You are not intelligent at all.

Pavore9:
I doubt the claim that they were not given notice!

They were actually given a long notice. Everyone knows that it is very difficult to eject Ibos even in a residential house. Most times, they are moved out by force after the matter must have dragged for many years.

sauceny:
I can now see Olamide is claiming to be a hard man,a street boi,a cultist or what ever he thinks he is,that is giving him the leverage to feel pompous(probably his fame & fortune).....I would have broken his head,if i were the "Fan" that tried hailing him & he reacted the way he did to me

How can you jump to the conclusion that the 'Fan' is telling the truth. You need to learn to be more discerning and not rush to judge people.

kubeconcepts:
I think a review of dress codes in the north might be necessary at this time because most times these bombs are concealed under large, heavy clothing.

You are right. Buhari should put religious sentiments aside and ban any hijab that is longer than the shoulder. If this government is serious about ending these suicide attacks then they should proclaim that no hijab should pass the shoulder level. That will make it difficult to hide the explosives under long hijabs.
