Even though I'm a born again Christian, I can't justify eating this. The Bible warns we Christians in the book of leviticus 11:22 against eating grasshoppers and four legged insects. Any Christian that eats this will go to Hell for ever. I pray our lord Jesus continue to guide and protect the Palestinians against the evil persecutions of Isreal. Amen

This your antic won't work. We already know who you are and what you stand for. Keep fooling yourself

7upnigeria:
If you understand principle of governance, you'll understand the difference between Tinubu and Obi. Tinubu is a progressive while Obi is a conservative. Let me e plain better, Tinubu believes the best way to beat poverty/lack is to have ENOUGH MONEY to attend to your needs hence when you come to Lagos, he laid the foundation that you can make money FROM ANYTHING you do in Lagos, REAL ESTATE is now hot cake on the Island, even ordinary sand and granite suppliers are smiling to the bank, other associate business; engineers, house agents etc. Dangote refinery has started to work and it's just directly opposite Lekki deep seaport, I was there the other day and was just trying to imagine the number of people such massive brain work will employ in the nearest and furthest future, it's another Apapa in the making and may even become bigger than Apapa. Its d reason why TOP POLITICIANS who knows how you run an economy are lining up behind Tinubu, Eledumare will let TINUBU succeed. A conservative on the other hand is someone that believes that poverty can be defeated by NOT SPENDING MUCH of what you have with the hope that you dont run into a problem that will require you to spend much, a conservative does not think of UNIQUE WAYS to generate cash for BIG PROJECTS. That's why I always tell those supporting Obi to compare TINUBU'S ACHIEVEMENTS and OBI's ACHIEVEMENTS before we start any argument. See, even Soludo, the governor of Anambra does not support him. I THINK YOU SHOULD EDUCATE ME MORE ABOUT OBI's ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE.

Tinubu is spending on what? Himself and his cronies! Nigeria need people who will plug the loopholes and drains. Try cut down expenses and get the best brains to bring ingenious solutions. How I wish it was Osibanjo who got it instead of tinubu.
So in your perspective, if a company is having a financial crisis, you go on a spending spree?
Have you ever wondered why company downsize? What they hope to achieve?.
You folks need a lot of coaching in management.
A nation ought to be run like a company, with checks and balances, not like some damned charity organization.
I'm done with you guys

Gerrard59:
No prominent Igbo person has stated such publicly. You should not be gaslighted with that accusation. When thrown the statement, explicitly ask for the name of the Igbo person who has PUBLICLY stated that "Lagos is no man's land". Public statement by a prominent Igbo individual, whether the person resides in Nigeria or abroad.

Two, you should stop appeasing certain people. Allow their conscience (assuming they have one) to judge them. Don't ever appease people who don't like you. No matter what you do, they will always accuse/dislike you.

You've said the fact. They are past redemption

codemaniacs:
Igbos have attacked the Yorubas politically, socially, economically e.t.c.


Yorubas and igbos fought each other during the civil war..

the civil war was Yoruba vs Igbo war.


in the 1960s , nzeogwu exhibited such hatred towards Yorubas.


"According to a Nigerian Police Special Branch Report, nzeogwu executed at least 4 army and police security personnel including one of the men on his team (Sergeant Daramola Oyegoke). nzeogwu also participated in the execution of Col. Raph Shodeinde, his superior officer at the Nigerian Military Training College and is reported to have shot indiscriminately at fleeing women and children.."..

the statement above shows pure hatred for Yorubas and a lot of igbos all have this similar behavior towards Yorubas.

The igbos also tried to attack the SW but we're stopped at Ore.

Before the civil war, Nnamdi Azikwe was also fighting the Yorubas politically because he wanted to be premier of the Yoruba region.

Azikwe tried to politically get Lagos and the SW region.
Ojukwu tried to use warfare to get Lagos..
Peter Obi and CRV tried politically to get Lagos.

Over 60 years and counting only Igbos have targeted and are still targeting Lagos and Yorubas.

some people on this are already shouting "Lagos will fail" just because the governor is not igbo.

must igbos subjugate Yorubas before igbos have a sense of achievement

you igbos already have Rivers state, Delta state, Anambra states yet you are more concerned about the SW, the Yorubas and who is governor of Lagos.

2 petroleum producing states with seaports and airports yet you igbos are not happy that a place called Lagos is not under igbo control .

you are sick and have serious mental problems.

Sometimes I wonder how some of you think. you went down memory lo lane to dig out half truth and perception instead of realities.
The Igbo supported gbadebo because he came out under labour party, EOD. if a Yoruba ran under labour party, he would have gotten similar support. And by the way, don't come at me with the notion that labour was an Igbo party. It got more I'm unalloyed support from Edo, Delta and southern than even some eastern states. It still shocks me how you folks turned against your own because he has trace of Igbo blood in him. Shit! That hatred is deep!

To be honest, I even supported Osibanjo more than I supported anyone. Talking about Igbos taking over Lagos. For your information, Lagos was the seat of power and it's only natural that they overrun Lagos. In war, everything is fair.
If that war was fought today, the Igbos will be matching towards Abuja which is the seat of power.
In war, once your overrun your opponents headquarters, then the war is almost done.
Now let's look at this, the Igbos also overan Edo state and up to ore. Did they take their lands? Is Edo state speaking Igbo today?
Did they install their rulers there just like Benin did in Lagos?.
While you are there whipping up sentiments about the Igbos eying your lands, the Fulanis are busy carving up territories in your hinterland.ilorin comes to mind.
Please you guys should save your hatred for the more potent threat to your existential survival.
Your house is burning and you are busy exchanging words with your neighbour across the fence. I really wished you guys will open your eyes and see that you are almost on the verge of being swallowed up.
Good luck

Panda7:
didn't he say igbo's have states in nigeria. Igbos are always there fighting yoruba in yoruba state. are igbo's and yoruba from the same region?

Let me ask you in all honesty. Apart from some Igbo youths making jest that Lagos is no man's land, have any Igbo person carry arms to fight and attack you? Let's me sincere.
Which tribe have gone to your villages, kill and maim your brothers and fathers, rape your sisters and mothers and try to chase you away from your farms? Is it the Igbo or the Fulanis?
Why not face the truth and rescue your land.
A man whose house is on fire is busy hunting grasshoppers?
You in particular needs sense. A healthy dose of it

Happy married life to this beautiful pair.
Your story reminded me of Henry and gedoni's story

7upnigeria:
I understand things are difficult but it's for the best to happen. Even if Obi or Atiku were President, things will be expensive if Subsidy was removed. The truth remains that BAT has way bigger achievement in his life than both Presidential candidate and is more trusted by some of us to move the country forward. You can support whoever you want, we will also support our own BAT. Mind you, some of us are making even more money with the high exchange rate, we sell dollar cash for Naira inflow. You'll not understand because some of your senses are just fixed on POVERTY and you dont see opportunities during difficult situations.

You made a valid point at the beginning and I was just appreciating how objective and calm you were until you resorted to insults.
Firstly, the country would have still faced a terrible strait irrespective of who ever succeeded buhari, but here is where obi would have been different. Obi would have cut down the cost of governance. Just imagine Tinubu spending like we were in prosperous times. Imagine budgeting billions for the first lady car, buying a yatch worth billions, junketing all over the world with over-bloated entourage, wasting money at every given time. Budgeting billions for the VP and chief of staff office/residence. In a time like when Nigerians could barely feed? That the height of insensitivity! Gosh!
It's just like a man who earns ,200k and is indebted to the tune 5 million with over 70% or his salary going to debt servicing yet the man is still taking more loans, buying clothes and Cars like nothing is happening. Can you in all sincerity say that such a man is wise?
Thats the case of Bola.
I wonder where you guy keep your thinking cap. When we criticise, we are being logical.

7upnigeria:
Apparently, it's either you're MENTALLY RETARDED to comprehend his speech or you didnt bother to go through the video at all.

No Batist will attack him, the BIG BAT OF AFRICA is an achiever that has nothing to prove to petty people from potopoto republic.

Achiever
And fuel is now 650.
A bag of rice is almost 50k
How much is a dollar again?
He is an achiever and people are leaving this country is drove?
The worst forms of human beings are those who will tell themselves lie and believe in their lives.
I'm a realist.BAT is an ineffectual baboon.

numericalguy:
Hateful and bitter IPOB cannibals displaying their frustrations everywhere

Ever since Bitter Obi was disgraced in the last elections, IPOB cannibals with their nzougbu nzougbu mentality have been attacking Nigeria at every given uportunity

Better check yourself into a rehab home to cure yourself of this deep depression eating you up

My brother, I'm doing very well, economically and financially. You can take your pain elsewhere.
I will criticise whom ever I so please, including the ineffectual and clueless Tinubu.
You can hug the closest transformer. No fvck given

toyeoye:
Wait, is this really front page?

You took this words out of my mouth!

I have never seen anyone really slow in implementing changes like seun. What kind of mods are you having presently?
I can't believe my eyes this kind of thread made front page.
Really shameful

numericalguy:
Bitterness has beclouded your brain.

Kokah was actually disquaraying japa but you couldn't detect the sarcasm in what he said

I'm very sure you have a low IQ and a mental block. If you read correctly, you would notice I wasn't even talking about whether Kukah was against japa or not.
My write up was purely about APC lackeys and paid hands on this forum.
Go back and read again before your show forth your ignorance.

I'm waiting for the Bulabians to start attacking him.
In the other thread, shettima was saying the rich were a tiny classs.....that was when it dawned on me that the Bulabians are not part of that tiny elite group of kleptomaniacs.
I can't be supporting my oppressors because of #30k stipends while their children are wearing 130 million naira worth of clothes and accessories ( governor adeleke's son).

I really pity all these Agbadorians. It's takes a certain level of stewpidity and depravity to support Nigerians rulers while you the supporter is living in squalor and abject poverty.
Smh. Spit on them!

pocohantas:
They are long and venomous. They are the longest venomous snakes. They are not the biggest snakes and no king cobra is this big.




I didn't say it is not "deadly", I said it is NONVENOMOUS.

Not deadly is akin to non venomous

pocohantas:
Any snake that fat and big is definitely non-venomous. Meaning they are not that harmful and confrontational. King cobras are thr longest venomous snake and they are not even fat. If you leave this snake, it would go away. If you looseguard, it would try its luck.

I dare you to try. That thing is likely deadly

sukkot:
NO SEX. JUST ME NAKED on a white sheet sorrounded by like 20 lit candles. she naked conducting the ritual. no sex. she came for my spiritual light. job1 vs 5 you can take all his substance and essence but do not harm him. so they dont have authority to kee me but they can harvest my energy

Ok. If I were you, after being naked and no nacking, na to wear my clothes back. The girl has some dark motives. She is experimenting on something
Infact you no go tell me make I naked and I no see your own unclothedness too

sukkot:
I was at the arndale shopping center in Manchester window shopping and this girl walked up to me and said she had been studying me and was interested in meeting me. She is Greek Australian. Very quirky girl and voluptuous but she is an odd ball in a way but she is very beautiful. So one day she showed up at my house and told me to get naked. Very strange request but I did. Then she got naked too. Then she put a white sheet on the floor and told me to lie on the floor and surrounded me with candles. Then she started massaging my gbola . She had a pentagram and a knife on the floor. I swearagad that witch attempted to steal my soul that night, and maybe she succeeded because my life wasn’t the same for a little while. We were friends for a little while but anytime I think of that incident I realize how stupid humans can be, like I could easily have been killed and used for ritual. I lose guard because na beautiful voluptuous innocent looking Greek Australian woman. But she did steal my soul that day. Don’t let anyone tell you these Europeans don’t practice witchcraft

She knack you? That's my only concern

Tonididdyx:
I went to UBA akpalpava branch in benin to the customer service desk.
I noticed a man holding a cheque, I was shocked to see my full name, surname and middle name initials written on the cheque.
I was stone shocked, I stepped back looked at the man, he was an elderly ( late or early 70s).
First thought got to my head, " I have to touch this man somehow", to ensure it wasn't a ghost or anything mystical.
I approached him and said, " Sir that's my name, surname and initials on your cheque sir. Are you sending me money?
He laughed and said " That's my name too on the cheque"
The UBA cashier was with her jaws dropped. The trio of us were shocked.
Sadly I didn't continue further contacts with him, I lost sight of him before I was through in the banking Hall.

Till date... I still have a weird feeling that was me in the future!... Never seen such coincidence in my life, same place, same time.

Almost similar story. it was 2004 and I was in a bank's hall. The cashier mentioned my name and surname and I stood up and started walking towards him. I noticed another guy was also walking towards the teller. We both got there same time and the teller was looking at the two of us in amazement. It turns out we both bear same name and surname but different middle name. Las las na the other person the teller was actually calling

SmartyPants:
An undercover agent won't behave like that. The goal is not to be noticed - this guy actually made himself so noticeable, which is why someone still remembers him and his name till today.

The undercover agent is likely to behave as ordinary as possible. The only way an undercover agent might make himself noticeable is if his mission depends on it. For example, he wants to penetrate a secret cult - but even then he will behave normal in the context of normal cultists.

You wouldn't remember him for being a strange human.

You are truly smart

Trojan8:
I am not Igbo. Regardless, isn't it better to chest beat with facts than to be a tribal bigot like you?

Someone shared a false information that people are already debating. Someone even said they employ females for various reasons. I am putting it to you that they employ more males than females with proof that's verifiable. Instead of you to learn and move on, just look at the nonsense that you are doing.

Just imagine what tribalism mixed with a healthy dose of foolishness has caused several Nigerian youth, especially the one on nairaland. To them every dissenting opinion is an Igbo person.
I worked with a bank years back and I know the statistics the op reeled out was incorrect, but daft like offkey will rather slide down the murky waters of tribalism than to read and educate himself. Shame on you offkey. I know you I'll call me Igbo too for criticising you. Ode.

happney65:
You people are wailing so fast. Wait till Quarter of Next year before you know the gravity of this.

"Na statistics we go chop" so says a so called presidential candidate

The day I heard the word, "na statistics we go chop?" That was when I knew we have invited dullards to ruin this country

MikeofKd:
Good day Nlanders, pls I need the wisest counsels of wise Nlanders. I have a problem which is lack of commitment to women, ive been this way since I left uni, and pls know that this isnt due to masturbation or any sorts, cause I havent done that thing since my teenage years.

I meet a woman today , we vibe, connect and all but i'm just damn too scared to commit any woman no matter how good she is. I'm scared that if I continue this way I may likely find it really difficult to get married.

Seeing and experiencing different complains of men in real life and on the forum as made my commitment issues with women only worse. I'm currently working, fair pay, got my own place, I'm doing quite well for myself. Ive met different women this year that were good women, but I fear if I give my heart to them they may switch up, women are too complicated naturally to cope with.

This fear of commitment is seriously holding me back from getting a serious relationship. My only fear is if I continue this way I may not get married. I need the counsels of wise nairalanders to advice me on what to do concerning this commitment issues cause it quite depressing no lies.

I form hard guy, but deep down I really be craving for a romantic relationship, I'm just too scared to give any woman my heart cause ive been hurt in past relationships . So hurt that even when I had a good woman I couldnt see it and I lost her.

Your Wise advice and counsels would be deeply appreciated thanks.

Firstly, coming from a sage Like me, there is no good woman anywhere. Just choose your poison and live with it
No woman is 100 percent perfect.
Women pretend a lot. Even the ones you called good ones in your post, over 70 percent of them are just putting up a good front
Look for a woman that respects you.
That's the most important thing to a man. As you grow older, you will understand this word.

If you have a father, uncles or older men around you, aunties, take your girl to them often. They will be able to smell put the dangerous ladies.
Good luck

Angelfrost:
First off, I'm not an Nwa afo, but a well travelled Nigeria who has a thorough grasp of what goes on across the nation.

Secondly, learn to embrace the TRUTH. It will make your life easier.

Southeast region has all it takes to be far ahead of the entire nation if they can come together and elect serious leaders.

When you see poor leadership, you call it out no matter whose ox gets gored.

Imo and Ebonyi need to sit up in that region.

It's as simple as that!

So you know what the problem was:- poor leadership and you decided to bring it here as if the leaders are here.
Well, no time for all of these. Have a great day

Angelfrost:
A lot of progressive things happening in Anambra and Abia...!


You will hardly ever hear such reports from Imo state... I just wonder why.

This is rather an unfortunate comment, coming from a nwa afo!
This kind of divisive comment is what causes internal wrangling and rivalry.
Pls refrain from it

Ahmeduana:
Trying to percify Atiku?

No. Atiku sold intel, tinubu bought it codedly.

Cruise777:




To stay relevant for the next Four years na serious wahala

Na everything you go use chase clout

Disable oo, Climate change oo

As Church Services no work

Arise TV no work


Joe Biden ignored all irrelevant talks with Trump and still won

Tinubu never attended a single debate, he won


..

Tinubu won? He rigged!

That's enough I will say. Argue with your conscience

Ernezt:
That's anaconda

Close to the truth. I would have said same thing but anaconda's distribution is in south America

Zeebuy:
That's a forest cobra.

My point was that if you watch NatGeo, you'll know the basics about these things and you'll never call that snake a python

That is no forest cobra. Bring me a picture of a forest cobra that looks like that

I'm an avid watcher of natgeo, an amateur hunter and a biological scientist/environmental management expert

I know what's confusing you-the dark colour but look closely. It has a shiny sheen/ lustre that is unique to the constrictor's family -boa, python and anacondas.

A cobra looks shiny but scaly. The python is smooth

iTroll:
No mind the stupid girl
E wan day take wetin she no fit give
This height requirements is the most stupid thing I've ever seen
A lot of great men that their names are being remembered till tomorrow were short men
Men like Alexander the Great and Napoleon Bonaparte were relatively short men.
That babe na complete mumu

Alex otti sef is short.

I guess she will throwaway Davido and WizKid if they came calling

That's why they keep getting hurt in their marriage/ relationship.
Look for a guy with a good heart and great personality

Zeebuy:
Watch National Geographic or animal planet or documentaries, una say no. Anyone who knows anything about snakes will know this isn't a python

You succeeded in saying nothing. So what snake is that?

That is a baby python though it looked darker.
