Politics › Re: Guys Please Mind How You Comment On These Platforms They Are Watching by MyExpression(m): 11:30am On Mar 11, 2024
I've always assumed that they are watching...on every platform.

Even on your device.
I've seen hackers do this...so as long as its doable, best believe they are doing it.

Gawd!
I love the artistry of the designer of that monument. That tour guide did justice to your visit.
Imagine the level of creativity that this story has inspired in the minds of architects who grew in Bauchi.

By default, your mind has been opened to deep artistry.

Gawd...na only me this thing dey hit?!

Are there dispatch Riders in Bauchi?

Let them join #Verified Dispatch Riders in Bauchi
It's a growing group on Facebook.

Let's build together.

We thought buhari will be the worst president ever until tinubu showed us how good a man buhari is...

We thought Ahmed Lawal will be the worst senate president until akpabio showed up with just 3 trillion budget padding.
If you believe this country will ever get better after 53 years of misrule, then you need to visit a psychiatrist...
Walahi this APC people really carry us one chance.
How they were bold to manipulate the system to get us to this point.

Make these fresh lawyers start petitioning any Representative wey no dey represent well.
Their manipulation mechanism should be infiltrated and dismantled.

How are we and the security forces so docile in this country!

But to be fair, we see him on only pants in wrestling everyday.
Just didn't expect to see him carry the dress code outside the ring.

I know he wear ¾combats too...don't come at me.

1:
She's not from a poverty-stricken family.


2:
In the Oil and Gas Industry, documentation matters (this is a topic for another day)


3:
It seems some of you on Nairaland come from a dysfunctional home, where siblings & relatives see one another as competition, thereby stiffling the help they'll render to you, and they'd rather channel the energy to pull you down. Hence your warped worldview.


4:
Go make more research about the Oil & Gas Industry and also Alakija's family.



Sayonara!
Where you dey Sayonara to?

You obviously read my post with prejudice.

1. I already stated that she's from Alakija family...they sure are wealthy.

2. Documentation in oil and gas, a specialised sector...something entirely out of her line of study...she didn't finish uni o. She had help. Don't make it sound like documentation is that easy to provide...and all that mattered was to tender the right docx. All bidders go through same process.

3. She already stated her closeness with friends/clients that helped her get in...I cited that too.

4. Read my post well...I said On her own, and her vocation she would not have afforded the bid.

Sayanora...wetin we dey drag?!

I respect her doggedness and hunger for success.

No be everything HARDWORK alone dey solve.
But she is hardworking and blessed. Not every rich person gets to attain this height.

Calm down oooh.
Don't make it sound like she won fair and square. She had leverage...which isn't entirely a bad thing. 🤷🏽‍♂️

If only you could be objective. Rest abeg! They don't need your prayers. Direct it to the man who has frolicked around most of their marriage. You people will learn the hard way. Mr. African Man
What do you people even call frolicking in Africa?
What if he exercises his traditional right to marry more than one?

How else will a righteous Muslim or African man rightfully get additional wives if he doesn't go out there to get them.
Frolicking with ladies that are potential next wife, is not wrong. That's one way to get them.

Well for Objectivity sake, a richer wife doesn't stop a rich man from having more wives...unfortunately, a rich wife will not take that sitting down.
That's an objective view...and she's well within her rights to seek divorce on that ground too.
I'm just empathetic coz they've lived thru their differences all these while...why wait till 30/48yrs in marriage? Why?!

Karlifate:
All these people saying she was "dashed" oil wells are simply ignorant.


Folorunsho Alakija, Globacom's Adenuga, Oriental's Indimi, some South-Easterner businessmen, etc all won the Marginal Field bid rounds, some years back.

While some were fortunate to hit oil in their oil blocs, some were unfortunate.

So, where's the "dashing of oil well" coming from huh


The only thing here is, if you have friends in Government, they could help facilitate the process, provided you greased the right palms grin
How much Hair Dresser/Fashion designer get, wey she go use bid for oil bloc in the 70s?
She wasn't a female executive on any board then o.

She already said in her interviews, that a friend/client of hers, got her interested in the oil business.
Does her profile match any of the names you listed?
Well, her father na Alakija sha...maybe dem really get money low-key.
But on her own, and her vocation...she couldn't have afforded the bid

Eunoiaa:
So all these years wey she don dey "submit" to am nor reach?


I mean, 30. Like that should even give you a pause to think that things might be way more complicated than they seem on the surface. Because how do you think they've been together for thirty years? How much longer do you expect them to stay together to convince you that sue truly was a submissive woman?
Read the story again.
She wanted privacy, and kicked the man out of the matrimonial home.

If not for her wealth and western influence, how will a woman be the one to throw her husband out of the home?

This is something only more money or American influence can do.

So if parents quarrel, mama go pursue papa comot for house?!

Na pride inspired by too much money dey cause am...nothing else.

Some women think what a man brings to the table is just Money.

Now when such women acquire enough wealth, they feel equal to the man, and can not be humble.

A man does not build a home with only money...he leads the family with selfless love and wisdom.
Is a woman willing to take that psychological task of leading the family?

Most are not build for that...and that's where they crash.
You don't lead with money.
When you attain wealth as a woman- that wants to lead, pls add to it wisdom.
Wisdom to plot the family graph...the children, grandchildren, relatives from both sides, network of valuable friends...etc...these are all strategic roles a man plays in the family.
An African man plans for the whole community...not just his first family.


I hope they get thru this...a journey this far, should have a happy ending. 🙏

Dem say Destined child no dey die easily..but Lanre died at 12. The street knew him as Osama, only we- the neighbours, knew him as Lanre.

Wa also thought Intelligent guys would live long enough to change the world...but Junior died at 18...with all that brilliance.

Our fine boy pastor, a saxophonist...died at 35.

Now this Precious ....so full of life, her energy spread throughout her faculty and the whole school...yet!

This life...just live your best everyday.

The story no clear na...Doctor will call police on a stranger...no be to carry your patient go back...or pay d card to get the patient documented.

And why is the charge still standing after the patient has cleared the air.
...so who's now pressing charge? Whats the doctor's locus standi, what's their interest or harm in the matter?

The story isn't complete.

I wonder how no one sees this big lacuna and y'all are busy condemning the Nigerian Health service.

There's much more to the story, that seems to be the koko of the arrest.

She's not told the whole truth.
If she can speak and type all this grammar, she definitely can defend herself out of the issue. There's a core reason she's been held...and definitely not for saving the gurl

Contract ends upon payment/receipt.

It's no longer your property...you can only charge security fee for the 2hr demurrage.

Nothing concern dollar for this one...but the good thing is...as long as item still dey ur shop, you can breach the contract and stay execution.

...and he can sue you for every value of that 1.6m within those 2hr you had his money in your custody.
If you want him to pay the current cost of the doors, then you have to refund the current monetary value of the 1.6m he gave you 2hrs ago.

Politics › Re: Kwara Must Change Caution Igbo Traders Over Weaponizing Ethnicity In Business by MyExpression(m):
"In a statement by the Convener of Kwara Must Change, Abdulrazaq Hamzat, the group said that tax laws in Kwara State are enforced on all businesses in the state, not on the basis of tribe, sex or religion, but on the basis of business and volume of transactions and turning tax related dispute into ethnic protest is the height of insensitivity."


Why are you implementing Progressive Tax only in Kwara state.

Is that legal in Nigeria? Or can every state decide their own state tax laws notwithstanding the standing Federal tax policy.

If you have a transparent policy, they are all bound to pay the tax.
The hotels and petrol stations earn as much or more than traders.

Are traders truly doing more volumes?
There are Yoruba and Hausa importers and traders too...why are they not complaining...or are they complaining? Or only Igbo traders are complaining among the traders?

Are all businesses- doing the same capped volume of transaction, paying a relatively higher tax...or it's been enforced on (Igbo) traders, while being passive on other businesses not dominated by Igbos?


Widening the tax bracket isn't the only way to grow the economy.

gidgiddy:
So the purpose of FFK writting this is to get Igbos to condemn Israel? What an unrepentant opportunist! You are telling Igbos that Israel sold arms to Nigeria to kill Igbos? You might as well tell Igbos to condemn Britain that not only gave Nigeria arms, but provided logistical support as well.

Trying to use history and sentiments to get Igbos to align with your political position is not going to work, they will see right through that charade

No Igbo man will condemn Isreal, not now or ever. The Igbo nations support for Israel is resolute.
You're right...but this last paragraph...not true.

I don't support Israel over gaza, except if it is a religious war.
I don't support Russia over Ukraine either.

Live and let's live.

Best to go with a lawyer.

You can't get locked up for no reason.

Also try to update police PPRO on twitter before stepping out,

So the IPO knows not to mess up.
This sums it up!

As an adult he is supposed to know better and isolate himself until it goes away.

And yes, I don't agree with women not wearing bras in public either, that's also indecent.
I agree with you on both counts...tho hugging relatives is usually an in-house something...Welcome or I've-missed-you kind of hug btwn long distance families👪.

Why didn't he wait till it goes down? Why hug your own daughter with an erect penis? That shit is disgusting. If she's being truthful.
This one is a traumatised child.
Who initiated the hug?

So we also shouldn't hug our sisters and cousins when they are not wearing bra...coz we actually do feel the touch.
...but the mind is wired in a way that blocks any amorous feelings upon such contact.
Even church brethren give 360 hug, but a pure mind will hug and move on.

Well, maturity demands her and him to adjust the hugging afterwards...coz even men feel uncomfortable when hugging with an erection.

If only these students knew how unimportant that certificate is in the grand scheme of things...they would have left school honourably without need for those pressure.

1st class or 3rd class...nobody needs those things.

Know what you know, come out and use the knowledge.
If dem ask for paper, you show them...if you want a better degree, you go for further study.
Your new higher degree will cover the former degree.

Anybody dey ask you how many AAz you get for WAEC?
You get waec certificate, over!

Please if you're still in school, don't pressure yourself.
Do your best and leave the rest.
Cultism, and Malpractice isn't worth it at all.
