The average price range in most States is N180 - N250 , why is it hiked up to N700 in some areas? I bought around mid-day today at 189 at Mega Station 1 Like |

Vado2:'Prospered from 1200 to 1800' does NOT mean the kingdom started existing in 1200! This 'prosperity' had to do with expansion, commercial activities with increased trading with transatlantic merchants and high activity of slave trading, which abolishment began in the 1800s; the period when the British colonialists arrived. Similar activities also occurred in the Ife and Oyo empires within this period. These empires, just as the Benin empire, existed centuries before this period you mentioned. Finally, these arguments are baseless because historical facts have shown a relationship between the 'Yorubas' and the 'Edos'; artifacts and other forms of documented history reveal this. And I've not come across any Edo person bothering him/herself about such issues/topics which are repeatedly opened on Nairaland in order to cause unnecessary arguments. What Edo needs to focus on today is how to foster development across the State socially, politically and economically in order to be a people to reckon with. 6 Likes |

This piece of observation was written down by a British colonialist around the 1800s; a period when the abolishment of slave trading had started. A lot of people were named after the places they were camped or migrated to. How many Igbos are named Opobo today? |

They refuse to distribute meters, except you get persons to bribe here and there. At a time I had credit with them (excess payments). All of a sudden, despite steady uninterrupted monthly payments, they started sending outrageous bills running into millions. Meanwhile, the power supply is the worst in the country. I don forget about them. I've been using solar, have virtually uninterrupted power supply. In fact, the diesel and petrol generators have been dormant. Thankfully, the bill for state and private generation/distribution of power was passed late last year. It's a matter of time, entities who really have business with power will emerge. Just get alternative source of power and forget them. 1 Like 1 Share |

The 21 year old ill-informed trader was clearly a victim in this case. The criminals used his socioeconomic situation (poverty) as a weapon. Also took advantage of his ignorance by not educating him of the risks, potential complications/consequences of removing a kidney. After being interviewed at the UK hospital and found not to be an appropriate donor, what do you think would have been his fate? There were reports he was already being maltreated before the police was informed. Naijap99us:Nigeria is a country where you find people blaming a victim for being a victim and hailing criminals for being 'sharp'. |

One of the crucial areas of history which Nigerians should be knowledgeable about would be the slave trade era around the geographical area regarded as present day Nigeria, and the period and events surrounding abolishment of slave trade. This would give some understanding regarding the distribution of certain groups of people around the Western and Southern coastal areas. One may realise that a few people championing ethnic supremacy today may actually have ancestry from the other ethnic group; considering the fact that 'Igbos' and 'Yorubas' made up the largest population of slaves and a few were displaced in slave camps in different regions around the period of abolishment of slave trade, a number of people claiming 'Yoruba' may actually be of 'Igbo' ancestry and vice versa.

| Politics › Re: SE And SS For Biafra? by NaMe4: 11:35am On Mar 20, 2023 |
The problem is the general attitude of many average Nigerians. On a normal day, a lot of Nigerians behave and conduct themselves worse than the ones in administrative or political positions. From blatant violation of traffic rules, jumping fuel queues and bribing charlatans and attendants, extortive transactions with one another eg recent activities of many POS operators. So, how wouldn't same people be willing tools in the hands of politicians? Even in the South-Eastern parts of the Country, similar activities to what occurred in Lagos took place there. So the same social (and possibly cultural) issues would persist even in the Biafra. Also, in reality, a lot of Igbos do not even subscribe to that idea. Not to talk of dragging other tribes into such. Nigerians need a total re-orientation and inculcation of values not only in the younger generation, but in the older ones who failed woefully and passed lies and dishonorable traits to their younger generations. 2 Likes |

Buhari signs amended constitution to allow states generate, transmit electricity By Hannah Johnson The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), has signed into law the constitutional amendment allowing states in the country to licence, generate, transmit, and distribute electricity. This was made known in a tweet by the presidential media spokesperson, Tolu Ogunlesi, on Friday. He tweeted, “President #MBuhari has signed 16 constitution amendment bills into law. By this signing, State Houses of Assembly & judiciaries now have constitutionally guaranteed financial independence, while railways have moved from Exclusive Legislative List to the concurrent list. “Another landmark change: By virtue of the presidential assent, Nigerian states can now generate, transmit and distribute electricity in areas covered by the national grid. (This) wasn’t allowed pre-amendment. This is genuine, realistic restructuring — through the constitution.” https://punchng.com/buhari-signs-amended-constitution-to-allow-states-generate-transmit-electricity/?amp

This is necessary. It makes no sense threatening people not to exercise basic/fundamental rights; anyone can vote for whoever he/she chooses. No one has the monopoly of violence. So security personnel and persons in authority should call such characters to order. Anyone with a functioning brain should be able to consider: if such is reciprocated in other parts of the Country, how would it fare for your own brothers and sisters? The era of these illiterate thugs climbing the social ladder through violence and intimidation should be over. 1 Like |

Noticed a number of them, even in the banks exchange at the black market rate - up to N780 per dollar. While official rate is around the range of N450 to N460 per dollar. Makes no sense. Yet to see any benefit of CBN blocking international direct bank/naira card transactions. |
