Adesanya, a great guy💪
Own own stylebender

People, younger folks I mean do not know the sacrifice Nigeria did for South Africa. As for me, I remember way back in university of ibadan, the amount of South African students we had, all fully funded by the Nigerian state. Not just Ui, but federal universities all over the country. Those SA students even lived better than us. Forget them and beer with Pepper soup at Tin-tin, one joint like that. Apparently, our beer was harsher than theirs, they loved it. They will get so high they roll in the floor. Those guys drank beer by the creates all funded by fgn. We were like poor folks compared to them as they lived large. We still had compassion on them and understood as they were said to be treated as slaves in their country. Funny thing is that it was not only South African students but also Lebanese, Palestinians. The PLO (Palestinian liberation organisation) lead by the later Yeser Arafat. Their exiled fighters were given safe heaven in naija, all funded by our government. Lots of them were students in UI, living with us in the hostels as normal naija students. The only difference was the way the spent money on "goodtime" and chicks.

See waste of resources

A 400 seater airliner for that matter being used as if persin de go from dopemu to oshodi.
Fly to France, return to naija, spend some hours, then back to Paris!
Foto! No be juju be dat?
Each hour that aircraft will be in the air, $10-15k.

onatisi:
But how are they certain or sure those orders were made by Nigerians ?
They better don't frame Nigerians for something they didn't do and start attacking them unnecessarily

Nigerians too will attack them here in naija!
Oppss, them no de naija. Or we go do the usual bullshit which is to threaten mtn. Meanwhile, if mtn shutdown for just few hours for naija, heavy chaos go burst.

Zico5:
Tinubu is just wasting his energy. He can never acquire anything as far as Nigeria is concerned. Nigeria is not Lagos state where he can do anything. All the acquisition will be revolked by the next president unless he is planning to be president for life. Let him enjoy the privilege of being president for less than three years more and all he is wiling to take will be history. Tinubu is a fool if he think he can decide anything after his expiration as the president.

He still controlled a major state and other states years after leaving, even to this day. He is doing that now on a federal level. He will end up owning everything by proxy. Everything big, he will have his filthy lepros fingers. Was dangote not given the shake down recently to the extent he almost weeped on TV?. Oga must have a piece of that refinary. Coastal road is in the bag, $10b worth in a hungry country deep in debt. Of course it is alleged he and his paddy owns the company with their kids as directors, same kid that got sole franchise for advert signage for a whole state by fiat. That could buy a £10m house in his 20s and "things" like mannabbq, freestuffng and the rest were hailing his business acumen.
Bros, this man has grabbed Nunu Nunu pee cee, even if he drops dead tomorrow, his family owns it. They would have ensured water-tight, unbreakable agreement with unbearable penalty for default is put in place, domicilled in foreign country for mediation, just as done with the Chinese company currently grabbing our jets.
A new administration comes in, (assuming he does not control), cancels anything, they then go to court abroad and get judgement. That is why atiku said our future is being mortgaged.
Dangote said he won't invest in steel any longer, let others that have money abroad, in dubai etc, "people with more money" than him. Have you wondered who he may have referred to? Certainly it was not atiku he meant.

Why is the name Chike Godwin Oti different from the account details: Acct No: 2016631487, Bank: UBA PLC, Name: CHIKE OTI,

Nlpolice, you are needed here

What is the difference?

She go learn the hard way say no be by cuteness.

Armaggedon:
can you please mention the part of the East,?

If I remember right, the gist was about onitsha.

obiekunie01:
veery stupid terrible and wasteful design!

Nigerian sha get mouth.
Someone used his money to build what he likes, a beautiful ediface for that matter, you say it is stupid, terrible and wasteful. Lol
No vex, kindly show the owner your own so he will learn not to be stupid, terrible and wasteful.

EreluRoz:
This one is fighting his mother's battle, some of us know the inside story. Big for nothing man.
The senior wife in a polygamous setting always enjoy the wealth with her children after the death of their husband, so if you are married into a polygamous family as a junior wife please make sure you gained enough from him while he's alive because after his death the battle is over for you.

I think it depends on if he left a will, because if he died intestate, then those other wives and kids will likely benefit or cause chaos. Very likely the baba left a detailed will.

OlawaleBammie:
Bros for the very first time, I kind of belive in miracle...


Baba abeg send me the number of that pastor God used for you..please sir

Should I pm you sir?

Don't get carried away. What worked for him might not work for you. In the ops case, it was destined to be that way ie the proverbial moon aligned. Things worked out. That same pastor might have a sick child that he would have prayed for but still lost the child the next day.

Spandau:
Nice fictional story.

Things de happen ohh. Unless you never see.

Olachase:
Omo God really save you, otherwise only god knows how many years you would have spent in jail

That was how my ex-girl frustrated my life during our dating year, she destroyed most of my property, T.V, laptop, phone and others stuff, I am the gentle type but seeing her destroying things I bought with my hard earned salary I lost my temper, I almost heat her head with hammer

But one spirit quickly approaches me and told me if i killed someone daughter I might rust in jail

I let her satisfy herself the next morning I told her to carry her bag and go, everything she destroyed I have replaced them back, she was acting up because she found another guy 😔😔

I forgot to apply rule 5 which said, (SHOW NO LOVE, LOVE WILL GET YOU KILLED) 💔💔

Sharp guy.
Never let a woman ruin your life.

oz4real83:
That is why most of us don't say anything when we hear some people on nairaland glorifying and flaunting these "billionaires", we know the country where we live say all that glitters is no gold

Oga, you said it all.
Na who them catch be thief.

Is he one of the forex or bitcoin billionaires? Business weh men go do loose money, they through some miraculous skills go de buy benz.

Lifestone:
4years awaiting trial for an offense with maximum jail term of 3 months. It's a shame of our judicial process

Guy, our judicial process in in shambles. One should just try by all means possible to avoid wahala. As it is said, turn the other cheek if slapped. Do you know a senior legal officer told me all the traveling by oga, seeking investors is all crap, as no genuine investor will put his money where the judiciary is flawed? Where he cannot get justice to protect his investmemts. Me personally did litigation, got favorable, judgement after 8 years of spending money. Guess what? Till today I never sniff the money due to the same judiciary, meanwhile devaluation has useless it. From money that could have bought a 2bed flat in Kent, now cannot buy a brand new corolla.

SmartPolician:
I don't want to believe that ladies' obsession with court marriages is to get 50% of their husbands' assets. This is the same thing that destroyed marriage institutions in the west. And Nigerian ladies with yahoo mindsets have been its biggest beneficiaries in the west.

That of naija ladies is not channeled towards divorce, but rather in event of death. To ensure they are secured to inherit asset without disturbance from family members.
The downside is that knowing it is through the demise of their partners they can inherit, poisoning and other means will be rampant, especially in a our society where autopsy is hardly done.
There was a part of the east back then where you had lots of rich widows. Legend had it they kpai their husbands at a certain stage of sucess.

See as them resemble infection. 😂

Botragelad:
Who else is waiting for Putin and his fanboys to invade Finland and Sweden for daring to join NATO, just as they did with Ukraine, claiming it was a threat to their national security.

But now, NATO's got Russia surrounded. That's what happens when you act like a bully. All thanks to Putin!

Oga stick to what you know and what we do best on this forum, ie igbo, Yoruba, fulani, ipob, Obi, emilokan, apc, tribal bashing etc.
Remove mouth from watin you no understand.

gudugudumeje:
Of all people, Atiku for that matter... This is someone who sold the future, up today's of Nigerian youths in 2004 in the fraudulent sales of 250 public enterprises - fraudulent privatisation exercise then in cahoots with Obasanjo - what were supposed to give jobs and future career to the youths. The proceeds of which he took to Dubai, UAE to relocate.

Of this fraudulent sales at rock-bottom and give away prices to his local and foreign cronies, he collected real prices to finance his contest to possess Nigeria(ns) from the ruse..

You think those guys did anything? Anyway, in the 8 years obj them were there, the naira against the dollar was no more than N80-100 to $1. In the 8 years of buhari, despite how terrible it was, he moved it from 200 to 700 to a dollar.
Now this current fellow in less than 6 months took it from 700 to 1600!
If that does not tell you something is massively wrong, nothing else will. This is currently a case of massive plundering on a scale never seen before.

Quelme:
Wailing of an election loser.

Imagine what you are saying? Is it that you do not understand the implication of all atiku said irrespective of his loss in the last elections? Do you not understand that with the level of greed, acquisition of wealth, the future of Nigerians is being mortgaged? Why do you think eg local refinaries are having difficulties working, that NNPC refinaries, dangote etc are being frustrated all for importation, to the extent a gov official will come out to say we must keep importing while de marketing Dangote refinary.
Shebi you see how that Chinese company is seizing Nigeria aircrafts because of breach of contract, that is how when a new administration comes in and discovers all the magomago oga has done for benefit of his family, and decides to cancel it, his children will go to court abroad and get judgement against Nigeria, why?, they would have signed magomago contract agreement with the companies baba has interest and handed over Nigeria to. Ie Nigeria will be mortgaged for eg 50 years or ever to one family. Shebi coastal road has been given to babas paddy, in which his son is one of the directors. $10B contract for road we cannot afford now.

FreeStuffsNG:
These goods and services have been subsidized for years and it's unfortunate that those charged with giving the subsidies failed to realize that it was not sustainable.

Now that debt was no longer available to keep subsidizing the welfarist system, government needs to gradually phase out the subsidies to allow market forces determine the prices and overtime the price will eventually fall to an equilibrium without any subsidy thereby making our economy less inefficient.

Nigerians in the long run will be better for it. Now people have learnt not to waste electricity unlike before.

May God bless Nigeria for ever!

You actually think you have made sense Abi?

ify2016:
Neo colonialism.
China is more wicked and highly dominary in nature more than any countries in the world

People wey get mind installed their own high tension cables in a country they are not a citizen.
Fear of China is the beginning of wisdom

Nothing like that. This is pure business. They could not get justice in naija, so they arbitrated abroad and won, simple.
What we should be doing is to do things the right way to avoid such.
Eg, the coastal Highway. This was allegedly done on a paddy paddy arrangement. No bid etc. A right hand man to oga at the top. Even ogas son is on the board of the company. People have heard, yet kept silent. Over $10b contract allegedly with no bid. A project naija cannot afford now. Obviously the current organisers will sign a paddy paddy agreement with with the contractor, putting Nigeria at a disadvantage incase a new government takes over and decides to cancel the road contract. Eg, if it is cancelled, arbitration will take place in France, if Nigeria cancels they will pay 100% of the contract as penalty. Naija officials will sign knowing their egunje is protected in any eventuality.

sulaak:
That is the Chinese company's plan. They can only embarrass Nigeria but they cannot seize any of the assets as they are sovereign assets, not commercial ones.

They cannot seize? What have they done so far? Why can't the planes be flown home? Oga, they have taken possession of those assets, they it's either you bail your assets or after some time they will sell them off.

Chukabiz:
So the Jet was seized by Nigeria in 2016 and now, Chinese Firm Seizes it.

Alright...

No be juju be dat?

The guy has hired bloggers to launder his image. Don't be surprised to see our resident Nairaland online miscreants singing his praise soon after collecting the usual 30k.

vanbonattel:
The other nine guys accused of kidnapping were shot to death by police, no investigation, and they were not caught in the act.

Now these guys were caught in the act, and police arrested them and kept them

BECAUSE OF THEIR SURNAMES!

Can you imagine what you are saying?
Fair enough, change your surname since you feel it will ensure your survival in suspected kidnapping over there.

Abi ohh. If they don't consider him to represent them despite his goodwill, they should get such benefits from his opponents.
Just as that maduka Dr gentleman from the US that wanted to serve his people after years of providing for them, from hospitals to houses, roads, stippends to widows, scholarships etc, yet they rejected him for other misfits. Kukuma leave them to their misery and focus on family.

CyrusVI:
Just tantrums. No factual backing or Data-laden stats


I read every single line and I couldn't see a reliable logical or Statistical source to back it up


If this guy has up to 3k followers on Twitter, then I need to stop engaging most people on SM cause it seems thats the largest gathering of low IQ individuals anywhere in the country

If factual backing farts on your face, you still won't smell it.
OK, the economy is booming, Nigeria is low on debt, taxes are low, the naira keeps appreciating, our gdp normina and par capita is increasing, the cost of food has decreased, Nigerians have full stomachs, industries are booming, manufacturing, multinationals, investors are all trooping in. Education, healthcare is fantastic.
This administration has worked wonders turning the country from 5 world to 1st.

yarimo:
and yet he was never the best governor 🤣🤣🤣

Are you laughing at your folly?

Lol.
Thank God.
It could have been worse if mammy wortarr had involved herself, plenty crocodiles, dolphins, snake could have disturbed NNPC to make he fuel scarce for another 1 month.
Craze people running our affairs.
