Biden is acting rationally and taking informed decisions. Good leadership from him.

They are men.

They should fight for their fatherland.

RoyalBoutique:
Apparently you didn't read the post

Some people just open captions and immediately make comments based on preconceived beliefs, they usually don't read.

The world had better thread softly with Russia, that man at the helm of affairs is obviously 'not well'.

AllahEatsShit:
You'll just end up standing in a looooong queue

As in eh....the queue is as long as from Lagos to Jigawa The guy will wait tire...

So with all the information out there to desist from investing in these ponzi schemes, people still do it?

Well, gullibility and greed are 5&6.

Good for all the victims, you will learn by force.

MadamVanessa:



The dullarrd government focused more In using money for misplaced priority. Imagine it was bandits that closed all the universities and demand times two of what ASUU is demanding, this useless government would've pay and begged them too .


Nigeria is the only country with the most cursed and foolish leaders.

Very true, they will pay sharply, not even X 2, but X 4 and still say "Thank you" to the bandits.

What else do you expect from a man who borrows money in Nigeria's name and uses part of it to build railway to Niger Republic because his "First cousins" are there. He neglects the thriving business hubs within the SW/SS/SE, he neglects education, yet keeps holding graduation parties for his so-called "repentant" BH members with tax payers' money, whilst the children of the legit tax payers are sitting at home due to ASUU strike. If they are truly repentant, let them tell us where Leah Sharibu is.

Whoever nicknamed this country a "zoo", deserves an award.

Wow, this is amazing, she really tried, who had thought she could lose this much weight. Kudos to her.

Get your voter's card peeps, let's make 2023 interesting, let's not be online warriors.

We need a President that would build world-class schools, hospitals and other social infrastructures right here in Nigeria. Patronizing these institutions is also key.

The power to decide who that person would be is in our hands.

Be mindful of this facts always: If your votes don't count, no one would bribe you to cast them.

I am super excited as I was conferred with a doctorate degree in Law today at the 15th and 16th combined convocation of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka.

Congrats bro...more power to your elbow.

I'm a 22 years old boy who's been constantly torn apart from within, I have always been seen as the black sheep in the family, I mean everything I do comes back to haunt me. I finished secondary school 2013, took Jamb but didn't get through, then 2015 came and got a pre-degree form for Adekunle ajasin University located in Ondo. I scaled through the exams, got admitted but I need was to pass Jamb for the same year. I didn't make the cut off.
  I was so ashamed of myself but I believed I still had time, so I came up with a lie, what I was going to do was pretend I actually got admitted to the school, then with the money given to me, I would get another Jamb, pass it and be a student...
  Unluckily for me, I got found out by my cousin in school who told my family, now they are requesting for my matric number and password, which I don't have. I'm too deep in the lie to say the truth because I know I'm most likely going to be disowned (my dad has made that clear). Now I'm thinking about cutting ties, staying in school and try to come up with some money so I can really be in school and study.. only then can I tell them what happened.. I don't know, I'm pretty confused and would be grateful to any advice, I'm lost but I'm hoping to find my way..

The fact that you failed JAMB a couple of times, or even many times, does not mean school is not your way, don't listen to such shallow advice.

Come out clean to your parents, try and get a job that would enable you earn some money, write JAMB again, or seek alternative routes to getting admission into Uni.

Save up, start a business as a side gig and when you finally get the admission, keep your side gig running, go to school, study hard, come out with good grades and thank yourself later.

Best wishes.

Marriage itself is success. Success can't distract success.

Are you serious?

So Tonto Dike and Churchill's marriage "itself is success"?

NB: This is not to spite them though, just giving an example.

GloriousGbola:
A parasite? Do you know how long they were married? Do you realize the woman was with him and supported him in the dark days when he left deathrow and aftermath was struggling?
How can you call the woman a parasite when Dr dre reached his billionaire status while married to her? How did she hold him back pls?

There are a lot of young people here on Nairaland that need to be schooled.

In 1994, an Uncle told us that any lady with an anklet (leg chain) is most likely to be promiscuous ('Olosho').

This is 2022, we are yet to prove him wrong, having studied Women Bankers, Lawyers, Accountants, Doctors, Traders, etc. who wear anklets; for your own good, guys, please avoid them, some hypothesis pass through the theory stage and eventually prove to be solid facts. Again for your own good, avoid them.

gistmega:
I appreciate the compliment. I can resonate with you and I vividly remember 92, 94, 94, but let us be realistic, the regime has changed. The promisor is out of power. The government made synonymous promises to our parents, to you and I but they failed all. Why is this particular group so special? I understand the rave but that is history now. as a matter of fact, it is pure injustice considering the fact that some of them are dead.

Nevertheless, look at the house. It is like a dormitory for down-syndrome high schoolers. It is an insult, a mammoth slap to anyone's face. A man like Oliseh cannot live in such a house, in fact, not one of those men will. Does it count as asset? Meagerly yes, but why not make them commissioners or ambassadors for sports than give them a home for the elderly?

Some promises need a take back and apology. Not all promises are fulfilled. The men know better like we do the tales of our government. They should have used their time well and not hope on the promises.

Sorry if I took you time but I just had to express myself.

It's OK.

Government is a continuum, the promise was made, now it has been fulfilled, the players made Nigeria proud at the time. You know what it means to rank 5th in the world?

It's all good, we keep moving.

gistmega:
Clearly written above. You may read again if you didn't catch it.

Now, what's your point?

Our thoughts are, anyone in that era will understand the importance of fulfilling this promise by the Federal Government.

BTW, your maturity is commendable, very evident in your response.

gistmega:
Pensioners are dying. Teachers are unpaid. The poor have no food and no means of survival. Their concentration is on a group of successful men who were given the widest open doors in life. This is disproportionate. Why should one be granted a house for representing a country? Every single Nigerian is representing the country in many ways. Where is the house for Fela? He also represented Nigeria. Where is the house for Wole Soyinka? Chimamanda, Wizkid? Let us stop this nonsense. someone has stolen cash to built craps for dead men.
Our athletes are hollow-minded.

Viju Wang Nianyong , a Chinese came to Nigeria to produce Viju milk. All Nigerians went gaga for it and turned the man into a $millionaire. If Amunike or Olise had established a tile manufacturing industry in Nigeria, they would have quadrupled their investments today and would frown upon accepting a mediocre kiosk from the government.
If Rashidi Yekini had invested in Car manufacturing, he would have been the Innoson of today and still be alive.

The Patel family came from India to Nigeria to make Royal salt in 1994. They didn't have a pint of the money that Augustine Egavoen had as a baller. But today, they can hire Egavoen.
Nigerians are not seeing opportunities. As soon as one makes a little change, he drinks, phucks and live extravagant lifestyle when he truly has nothing. Nigerians are bailing out while the foreigners are going to Nigeria to become $billionaires. Nigerians see complaints while others see opportunities.

The government is bad but foreigners are cashing out. Shine your eyes. Someone is getting rich making salt only. I know a Nigerian guy supplying charcoal in a particular country and he made it big. So many opportunities

fura de Noonoo has been a staple in the north for centuries. Up till now you can only get it by the roadside. Is there no one with a brain to package it and cash out?

Zobo is still a low-class drink till date.

In Canada, palm oil is sold in catchy bottle and taken like syrup. In Nigeria the oil kegs are eyesores.

In Cyprus, honey is packages in lovely containers but in Nigeria the original honey is sold in dirty gallons.

Dudu Osun packaging is still like Stella pomade.

Abacha is still sold in dirty wraps. What happened to branding?

Bole is still sold the same way my grandfather used to buy it, by the roadside. Beside a drain.

People are cashing out. Nigerians sit in wealth and expect you to go break your back for them to steal it or beg for it.

What stops a welder from teaming up with a mechanic to produce generators? And, Indians are producing for us to buy.
SMH

What exactly is your point Sir?

Plus, how old were you in 1994?

We are asking for a reason.

With all recent happenings, someone called this article "Fake story"? May we not fall victim.

Whether true or not about the location, proper investigation should be carried out by the authorities.

Is the Governor insinuating that poor Bamidele boarded the BRT bus at the wrong time? Is he indirectly trying to put the blame on her?

Bamidele trusted that BRT is about the safest means of transportation in Lagos, she would never have thought the unfortunate could happen to her or anyone in such a bus; even the video she made, that went public, we all could hear her laughing whilst expressing her concerns to her friend.

Mr. Governor, justice must be served, please do not fail this innocent girl.

If u load the dicks when this woman pussi don carry for pick up van, some dicks go dey fall for group when the van enter bad spot.

Please don't denigrate her nau bro, this is one of Nollywood's finest that has kept a low profile ever since; a beautiful, smart and industrious woman. Plus, she has never snatched anyone's husband, like what we have been reading these days. We all give love a chance and if it doesn't work out, we move on.

Chicken Republic did the right thing, their action was appalling.

mpire:
Apologies accepted.

Thank you.

mpire:
You must have dementia. Didn't you make the following statement? Oh I'm supposed to ignore your stupi.d rude comment? You make such statement when you don't have elders in your family, uncultured and ill mannered and it's obvious.

"....but your parents taught you good manners, especially when in a public space, what then is wrong with you?"

Oh, so that was the statement that got you.

OK, apologies about that.

So, are we good now?

mpire:
It's obvious you were raised by animals, lots of them. I"m sure every elder in your family has died and you're the only surviving idiot? Are you always this fool.ish or this is a special day for you?

What is wrong with you and why are you so bitter and angry?

We have not insulted you in any way, yet you have resorted to raining curses and hurling insults at us.

Read very well, we never insulted you; maybe you made an assumption that we did insult you, based on your interpretations of our posts.

Anyway, may God heal you. So sorry about whatever you are passing through.

mpire:
That's why you can't even use a simple HTML tag properly? Oponu, keep gambling.

OK, we'd do you a favor by responding to you again.

Read very well, we do not support gambling and stated this very clearly, now you know our position; we only told a true story.

....but your parents taught you good manners, especially when in a public space, what then is wrong with you?

mpire:
[s][/s]

So where is your own bicycle at least since you've been playing, you mean you personally don't have a success gambling story even from your sister's, uncle cousin's step mother?

We assume you went to school. Please always read to understand, and not just to post a comment. We won't do you the favor of responding to you again. Thank you and have a nice day.

This is a true story:

One of our customer's wife got fed up with his Bet9ja (football bet) habit and just like you, was having 'funny' thoughts.

One day, he brought home a nice Lexus jeep and handed over the key to her, she was surprised and questioned where he got the money from, but he just cooked up a story. They also started a very lucrative business.

Three months later, he decided to open up to her and narrated how that same football bet fetched him millions of naira and how it changed their lives forever.

We do not support gambling, but come to think of it, anything that is not 100% sure and you make an attempt at, is called what? As long as it is a game of chance, it is called what?

It's 2:1, not 2:0

White rice and vegetables with milk+sugar. Pour the milk+sugar on the rice and vegetables in a flat plate, tastes heavenly.

If you like go and try it, vomit all the way.

That man- Putin, should be a case study in higher institutions across the world.

azelab:
Becaful don't let anyone scam you, make sure you get your pos terminal before paying any money?

Please note that we are not scammers, we understand others might have scammed people, we are very transparent and you don't pay until you receive the product.

On the flip side, what if the requestor is a scammer? Or one who will receive a product and says he is no longer interested, after we have expended so much time, effort and money on logistics.

Always have a business mindset and look at thing from the 3 sides of the coin.

Putin has graced the cover of Time magazine several times, he is undoubtedly one of the most powerful and 'popular' leaders alive.
