Nigerians are Nigeria's problem. They tax you, you complain. They borrow loan, you complain.
So the development you are praying for, where is it going to come from? Will it just fall from the sky?
At least, you can see that the loans are tied to infrastructure; roads, rail and power, even ports. |

Politics › Nigeria Rejected US Push To Accept Venezuelan Deportees — FG by NSNO(op): 7:30am On Jul 11, 2025 |
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Amb Yusuf Tuggar, has said the United States is mounting pressure on African countries to accept Venezuelan deportees, stating that it would be difficult for Nigeria to do.
The minister also clarified that the fresh 10 per cent tariffs imposed on Nigeria by President Donald Trump’s administration may not have anything to do with President Bola Tinubu’s meeting with BRICS nations.
Tuggar stated this on Friday evening, during a One-on-One interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
“The issue of tariffs may not necessarily have to do with us participating in BRICS.
“You have to also bear in mind that the US is mounting considerable pressure on African countries to accept Venezuelans to be deported from the US, some straight out of prison.
“It will be difficult for a country like Nigeria to accept Venezuelan prisoners into Nigeria. We have enough problems of our own.
“We cannot accept Venezuelan deportees to Nigeria, for crying out loud. We already have 230 million people. You will be the same people that would castigate us if we acquiesce to accepting Venezuelans from US prisons to be brought in,” he said.
US President Donald Trump, on Wednesday, met with five West African Presidents of Gabon, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Mauritania and Senegal at the White House, Washington, D.C., excluding President Tinubu.
Trump also announced a 10 per cent tariff on Nigerian goods exported to the US, as many believed this was coming following President Tinubu’s visit to Brazil to participate in the BRICS summit, after Trump’s threat.
On Tuesday, the US Embassy in Nigeria also announced visa restrictions for Nigerians as it effected single-entry three-month visa validity.
Tuggar, however, said the tariff hike and other sanctions may not necessarily be a result of Nigeria becoming a partner member of BRICS.

Tuggar, however, said the tariff hike and other sanctions may not necessarily be a result of Nigeria becoming a partner member of BRICS.
The minister also said accepting Venezuelan deportees into Nigeria may only be the beginning, adding that it would be unfair for the US to insist on Nigeria’s acceptance.
“The issue of accepting Venezuelan deportees, honestly, I don’t think is something that Nigeria is in a position to work with.
And I think it would be unfair to insist that Nigeria accepts 300 Venezuelan deportees. Maybe that might just even be the beginning,” Tuggar said.
He also addressed the new visa policy by the US, noting that the claim that the new policy was based on reciprocity was false.
The minister explained that Nigeria operated and issued a 90-day visa policy, the same as the US, stating that the only difference was that Nigeria had introduced electronic e-visas to save time.
"We are talking to the Americans. We are engaging them. We are also explaining and reminding them that we issue them five-year multiple entry visas, the same way that they issue regular travellers five-year multiple entry visas.
“What Nigeria has done that differs is simple. We used to have a visa-on-arrival that wasn’t running efficiently.
“We introduced these online electronic visas that you can apply for so that it saves you time, instead of just arriving and then going through the process of getting the visa when you have already arrived. https://punchng.com/nigeria-rejected-us-push-to-accept-venezuelan-deportees-tuggar/?amp

GloriousGbola: it is because most nigerians brains have been ravaged by poverty and religion which leads to the just world fallacy
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-world_fallacy
simply put they will justify bad things happening to people
the more miserable and unhappy their own lives are, the more they will seek to blame people for misfortune
hiny umoren was also raped and killed in the same uyo by a serial killer who sentout fake job adverts. if she had not been paranoid and had her friends on the lookout, the louts on SM would have also called her a runs girl
same for taht girl who was raped and murdered in brt
even poco [years ago] had a run in with one chance robbers who put abonniki in her eyes ad pushed her off a moving bus. because of SM riff raff what was going through her mind was if i did this is how some low life human beings will say i was doing hook up
@semid4lyfe i am sure you are seeing how on this platform everything is turned to an avenue for bashing women The gender wars have gotten out of hand boss. And it's not just on nairaland even Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and every online space has seen huge increase in misogyny and constant bashing of women. |
Crime › Re: Why Do People Always Think "Hook Up" When A Lady Is Killed? by NSNO(op): 1:31pm On Jun 27, 2025 |
Creamypie: firstly, nobody supports their killing or murder. Secondly, you hardly find a lady that isn't a prostitute, ashawo or hook up babe, including married women.lastly, u need to see the way ladies their lives cos of hook up/ money,travelling very far to sleepwith strangers in their houses. Do u live in nigeria at all? 1. People absolutely justify their murder. 2. A lot of women are not prostitutes. In fact if majority of the women you know are prostitutes, it says alot about you, the kind of friends you keep, your relatives etc. 3. Of course hookups are risky, everybody knows that. But why do people think hookups first? What about women who are raped and killed on their way home, the ones who were killed by their partners, what about women who died of underlying diseases? Why hookups? We should at least allow the dead to have some dignity by waiting to know what really happened instead of shouting hookups as if that justifies the killing. |

Crime › Why Do People Always Think "Hook Up" When A Lady Is Killed? by NSNO(op): 11:45am On Jun 27, 2025 |
This is in response to the single mother of two who was found dead. Why are Nigerians like this? A woman was found dead, the next thing you hear "hook up", "olosho", "ashawo"?
So in your own reptilian brain, only prostitutes are killed and dumped? Even if they are prostitutes, do they deserve to be killed?
The main reason I hate this line of thinking is that it kind of justifies the murder.
Empathy and compassion is a good character trait, learn it.

Politics › Re: Why PBAT Appears To The Best President Nigerians Have Had In Years. by NSNO(m): 11:31am On Jun 27, 2025 |
WizardOfNG: @OP.
Dis one you talk, I don talk am tire here to receive endless insult. I am Yoruba and from the SW.
In the end, I concluded that Nigerians cannot understand your brilliant bread and bakery analogy because of weaponised poverty deployed against them over decades by previous Presidents before PBAT who were too cowardly or disiniterested to elevate Nigeria to "developed Nation" status.
This leadership weaponsation of poverty became the norm to unravel a systemic and unending cycle delivering only greater destruction of Nigeria achieved through the modus operandi of "giving Nigerians bread so they would not revolt".
Indeed they did not revolt yet same weaponised poverty prevented them realising that majority of Nigerians were living like wild animals in comparision to Turkish people let alone Brits, Germans, Americans, French folks etal
The cumulative effect, same as a drug addict would view as evil a loving parent who locks him in a room to detox, is what we have today whereby Tinubu is seen as the worst President by a significant number of Nigerian.
Whereas critical, Knowledgeable, exposed and logical thinkers, as you appear to be, will know Tunubu is the best President Nigeria has had, post 1999, beyond the shadow of a doubt.
I mention I am Yoruba to explain the conclusion I am leading to which is that Yorubas are ready, and you can see this from how our leaders are moving, to sacrifice now , and back Tinubu's decentralisation of power we hope will lead to regional autonomy for us, to become a nation like Turkey within ten years and a nation like the UK or Germany in 20 years.
I have no problem with those who want Tinubu out but, since it appears only SW and SS leader see the bih picture, I would want him in power long enough to 'free' serious regions of Nigeria to the extent so their destiny is truly in their own hands such that 'one Nigeria' can never impede or affect adversely beyond Tinubu leaving power.
After that regional 'freedom', those who do not understand they are under the spell of weponised poverty, and thus could not see the need to sacrifice, the North being the best example, can continue to receive bread , consequent upon them remaining no better than animals .
Others who saw the bigger picture and endured with Tinubu's effort to decentralise power and processes, for a much brighter and dignified future, can move on to enjoy socio-economic life as it obtains in the best nations of the world because they had the temperament, outlook and "delayed gratification" nous to shun poverty bread and wait for sacrificial deliverance that will eventually usher them into 'optimally developed region' status. While I agree with some of the things you said, I don't think Turkey is a country to look up to. Their economy is not so good at the moment (of course it's better than Nigeria's) and there is serious discrimination and human rights abuses plus Erdogan is currently showing some dictatorship tendencies. |

President Tinubu is doing a lot better than I expected though that's not saying alot as I expected Buhari pro max.
This tax bill, unification of the exchange rate, removal of fuel subsidy etc. are actions FG should have taken a long time ago. Well, better late than never I assume.
Though everyone will agree that insecurity, corruption and wanton waste is still a big issue. |

tctrills: List the signs and symptoms other than you hate Trump. Your hate for one man is making you see things. I don't hate Trump, I hate the kind of politics he represents. These are the facts. 1. He is deporting people to a foreign prison without trial. Surely you can admit that this is wrong? 2. He is defunding universities because they disagree with him. Remember science and technology is what made the US strong and stable yet he is cutting their funding. 3. He disobeys court orders. Remember that this is one of the issues we have with our own politicians. 4. He lies all the time. 5. He pardoned Jan 6 rioters who stormed Capitol Hill and even killed a national guard. 6. His disdain for allies and the fact that he is seriously thinking of invading Canada, a sovereign nation. And that's before we start talking about DOGE, tariffs, his vindictiveness etc. Trump is not the right person to lead a country like the US. |
