The Kind Kdney / Liver problems we will see in the next 10 years in this country, e go be like curse.

Drinking wine, smoking hard drugs and the remaining vices will be the major culprits and It will be very hard to give a single fvck

Yes, in the next 10 years mainly because cost of medical diagnostics, drugs, treatments have skyrocketed thereby driving people to drink all sorts of herbel concoctions.

Who is this one again? What does he even do for a living.

Taaaa....

Funny people. Is this how they want to reduce prices? After messing up the economy?
Someone posted here few days ago of how a relative sent phones bought from argos total worth of 600+ pounds was held by customs with a clearing bill of 1.2m.
This people obviously are government pikins that do not know how business, laws of demand and supply works.

They should have rushed to assist him get up.
Nice one though.

James2nweke:
see your sense now because she is igbo

In "your sense" it is all about tribe?
Oga, not everyone is into petty igbo, Yoruba or hausa rants.
Anyone that makes such statement as she did should be penalised irrespective of their tribe.

NIA, dss etc should make special arrangement for her to arrive in naija, just as was done to kanu.
She should be made a scape goat.

Lol, naija na cruise....
The person that whistle should be blown on, is the one issuing policy on whistle blowing. No be juju be dat?

Gerrard59:
Last weekend, I participated in an African-themed event and we (a little group) had lunch opposite the venue. A Ghanaian, Beninouse, two Kenyans, a Ugandan and a Namibian. One of the Kenyans, a lady, narrated how Nigerians are troublesome in the country. What crimes do they commit, I asked. She narrated with grief and sorrow that Nigerians are behind the gruesome murder of young Kenyan girls and afterwards, they dump the bodies near bushes and dumpsites. What about the Somalians? "They are not troublesome and even bring business to the country". The Ghanaians? "Those ones are not troublesome either" What about South Africans? "Oh, they are the best! They follow the rules and mind their business. The problem is Nigerians". The Ugandan interjected to say that "Nigerians are very cunny to which they equate it as "smartness"". I felt bad and apologised but reminded her that back in Nigeria, it is actually a ritual (pun unintended) to have young girls murdered for simply no reason. Furthermore, I told her that whenever these Nigerians are arrested, they should be hanged, no ifs or buts! They should not allow Ruto's in-law who is a Nigerian to lobby anything but deal with the perpetrators brutally, thoroughly, and mercilessly. Also, I advised that Kenya should put up restrictive border controls against Nigerians regardless of what they opine.

When I condemn crime, Ndi lovey-dovey will accuse me of being an Uncle Tom. Tomorrow, ignorant and arrogant Nigerians will say Kenyans are xenophobic when they get angry as their young women's bodies are mutilated. Yes, mutilated as certain body parts are nowhere to be found upon recovery of the dead bodies. Apparently, the gIaNtS of Africa have carried their "rituals make one rich mentality" outside the borders of Nigeria.

"smartness".
You said it all. That so called smartness is what has placed us in the current state we are as a country and people. If you want to know a bunch of nigerians, give them a traffic junction and see the road get blocked, chocked, give that same junction to others and see traffic flow easily. The fact you drive one way while others are queue does not make you smarter.
Those days you can enter the UK as a Nigerian and open a bank account easily, even get credit cards etc. But of course as usual Nigerians opened those accounts and used them for fraud, took credit and dodged etc. Now it is almost impossible to open accounts. Not just in UK, but all over the world. Is that smartness? A friend told me if a Nigerian friend that took £50k loan and returned to naija, saying after 5 years the debt will be wiped out of the system as bad debt and his name cleared by the banks. Is that "smartness"? At the end if the day, oyinbo learns and further blocks the system even for genuine Nigerians. Before you issue cheques and it was as good as cash, Nigerians spoilt it, using it to rip people, now onyibo will hold your cheque till it clears before offering you service. Heck even a Nigerian with history of fraudulent credit card transactions is now a serving governor with complete control of the treasury of a state. No be juju be dat?

Is Edo now part of the so called biafra?

E no go pass land matter.
Rest in peace to the dead.

If they sell whole milk, how many Nigerians will be able to buy with the current inflation? Milk that use to be 750 is now 2900, I saw a big can of milk for 45k the other day, milk that was 5-7

Speaking of the devil, just before I picked up my phone to write, na intop milk matter weh my pikin talk say her own milk for her cereals don finish. Something I bought 2 days ago for 2900. Say she only use an 3 times.
That aside, have you guys seen how much sensodine rapid action tooth paste is sold for? I bought it 4900! Tooth paste that was N900 ohh, went up to 1900, today 4900!
What is going on??

Omo, men, enjoy your money when you are alive. Do not risk your life for any woman, cos when you loose it, life goes on.

Hmmm, what year was this? Is like Nigeria had too much money to spend then.

I got into UI, 1990/91 session.

WriterNig:
Africa can benefit from this.

Just wait out the storm and secure our borders because lots of westerners will be trooping in to take shelter from the radioactive fallout soon.

Exactly! When their countries are devastated by nuke strikes. They will need places to relocate or come to breath manageable air. Of course, all air around the world will be degraded, but it will still be manageable or at least better in Africa than their nuked wasteland.
Then we will charge them $20k for 3 months visiting visa, non refundable. Wait period of 6 months. After 6 months processing time, we deny the visa with no tangible reason.. 5% visa issuance rate

Eyaa. If you were in Ibadan, I would have directed you to a place where you will buy such chicken for tops 4.5-5k ie a chicken at least 1.5 kg and above in weight.
Freshly slaughtered, processed and frozen. They process for whole sale.
Nice one OP. Hope you had a nice feast.

Only shock? If not properly water proofed, those batteries and water na cat and dog. Once them jam, na desaster.

If it blows, how does it affect him? London, France, Monaco, dubai, Lebanon etc are tops 7 hrs away.

Nice gesture.
What does he do?

emmabest2000:
An insider must be involved with this kind calmness and fearless

The conspiracy theorist has arrived.
Insider must de involve uptop stealing of gas cylinder. Insider give info, after the stealing, them go share the money. Make police arrest all the young men for that house, the married men needing extra cash for side chicks, the married women we need cash as oga no drop chop money, the phcn staff for that area, because na them de check nepa bill.

We4all:
He left the car and stole the gas cylinder. What a smart thief!

E easy to thief moto?

Silly Paul ibe or whatever his name is. Instead of the charlatan to focus on the current calamity facing Nigerians, he is directing his energy at Chief Bode george who is neither president or holds any political position.

This is the comment I was looking for.
Nigga you nailed the exact point.

Nothing persin no go see for this forum

Bluffly:
Nigerian businesses lacks perpetuity and succession plan all because of greed. Observe Dangote, once he is gone, all he built is gone

That is why he goes public after a while with most businesses he sets up.
Even the refinary is scheduled to go public. With that, the businesses will out leave him, expecially if he has foreign investors with controlling shares.

Truth of the matter is that no public owned organisation in Nigeria can work. Fact. Nigerians are too smart in a negative way. Even those that come with a clear set mind and with good intentions will get frustrated, called different names. As wike once warned university professors to remain in academics and leave politics, or come and join politics so we rub you in mud, as politics is a dirty game. Lol
Naija airways was an airline of choice back in the day, ran by well trained professionals, until naija showed itself. We flew it as kids in the 70s and 80s, 707s,dc 10s, 747,later a310s. Politicians, staff etc started crap, first with free tickets. From family to friends, house girls, girl friends etc. Half of the flight will be free flight. It got so bad, staff tarted selling free tickets, lol.
Plane will be full and ready to depart, but will be delayed as one big man is on his way. (some sultan even tried it recently with airpeace). You will pay for 1st class 747, but not allowed upstairs as captains chicks occupy the place. As half the flight is free ticket, no more money to buy petrol abroad, or if there is money, someone will chop it and tell pilot to "raise funds". Stranded passangers will then have to contribute money to buy fuel as no fuel seller will sell to naija airways on credit due to heavy igbese. Your baggage nko? That one was snacks for handling staff.
Early 2000, one abroad returnee ex naija airways captain restarted the airline with 2 or so leased aircrafts, I flew with them to UK for around 50k, nice flight, kept to time, etc. But the usual naija curse came in the form of the female aviation minister that was alleged to have frustrated them for her personal interest. Apparently she had interest insetting up an airline with foreigners. First thing she did was to instruct all revenue be forwarded to Abuja, ie aviation ministry. Then approval will be given for expenditure.
So they want to buy fuel, catering, tissue, etc, they will wait for ministry to approve and release money at their convenience. Omo, the airline ran down.
With how naija is setup, no public business can work, be it nnpc, nnsl( Abi una no know say we get shipping line before?), refinaries, ajaokuta steel etc.
We are too smart, so tay over smartness de kill us.

Melagros:
COMRADES, Tinubu is not a good leader at all, he lacks leadership skills

But they say he built a state and made "men".
Imagine the kind of argument my guy gave, an educated person for that matter.
Anyway, he has ran abroad with his family. He said naija does not pay him.

So be it, if it will get the country working.
One question I want to ask the average Nigerian here on Nairaland, your vehicle, who will you give it to be fixed if you see two local mechanic workshops, one staffed by Nigerians or the other staffed by Indians or Pakistani mechanics, even togolese? The other day, a naija mechanic brought my car back, but with all the clips used to fasten the engine cover and other plastic parts missing. I asked why they were not there, guess his response? They were not necessary, and would make it easy to open the engine the next time!
Another time, I bought a new radiator, they installed it, then made the fan permanent! Howwww. I had to tell him to return it to factory settings immediately! Go pump your tyre at the valcanizer, you will find out the valve cap will be missing, they will not put them back after pumping.
Truth of the matter is that we have to re examine in our work ethics, skills etc.
