Abba! how person go fix wedding a week after election in this country? no sense

Oya how long after the elections is safe to fix wedding?... Cos the last time i checked, people who fixed their weddings 6 & 8 weeks after elections in 2015 also suffered this same fate.

ojuu4u:
Why eleventh hour? Am very sure INEC is collaborating with APC to postpone the election, they biliv PDP might have shared money to respective polling units by next week, they would have exhausted their money, APC will now come out fresh with loaded cash

But PDP did exactly this in 2015 but still failed! Postponed elections for 6 weeks in which period GEJ went around personally sharing trillions to royal fathers especially in the SW. But it still failed. If it failed the last time, it would also fail this time cos everyone already knows who they want to vote for.

Tonytonex:
anybody wey dey fix wedding this period no get wisdom.

Oga, no amount of wisdom can save one from this kind of govt incompetence. You might think it wise to avoid fixing weddings in the month of February or even March. But remember the last time, the election was shifted by almost 2 months. Except you're saying weddings should only be fixed from May.

blackmantis:
My cousins wedding don cast

Very annoying, I just imagined the fate of people who have weddings planned for next week. The Nigerian govts always swim in gross incompetence.

This is bizarre!

you said sense is common: But, you lack it! I think, you need this tonight!

I said the loans Nigeria took from China are purely tied to infrastructure. But then you rudely interrupted by saying it was a lie, and you started blabbing about some unrelated APC vs PDP rubbish.

What exactly is the lie in what I said?... You've had ample opportunity to explain yourself or defend your position. But obviously, it would be silly for anyone to expect you to actually defend a meaningless blab.

justbusy:
oh yes! One of those who queue up to collect cups of rice, salt, pepper and #500 from the APC govt! You're doomed for the next 4 years!

@justbusy, I guess your own wise idea of being honourable and patriotic is seeing something which is black but lying to yourself like a child that it is white. I'm sorry, this isn't about elections or politics, it's just about exercising common sense.

The loans Nigeria has gotten from China are strictly for the infrastructural projects, some of which I already listed earlier (i.e. abj-kaduna rail, Lag-Ibadan rail, airport remodelling and Mambilla hydro dam). China doesnt give cash loans, they give the loans only as infrastructuaral projects and these project based loans were taken by both the last PDP and the current APC govt. Saying that this is a lie doesnt make you smart (as you probably think), especially when the info I gave is common verifiable knowledge available to all and sundry.

Furthermore, speaking this fact does not mean I am supporting any body politically; it's just common sense. Receive common sense!

Uka agbasa!

justbusy:
Mr Patriot, keep those lies to yourself!

*yawns*
If you have access to the internet to type "lies", but can't use that same internet access to independently verify or educate yourself, then it's a pity. Feel free to remain in ignorance.

Fran6ik:
You can see the ethiopias debt in the infrastructures

wise2odd:
the op is trying to justify buhari loan. there is no accountability to buhari loan

cucumbae:
Other African countries uses their debt judiciously but nigerian government uses it debt to fund buhari's campaign.

oliverano:
Why is Nigeria here, I thought Dasuki and co returned billions of dollars to the Buhari led government. SMH!!!

But every single dime of Nigeria's debt from China is also being used for visible and tangible infrastructure. Nigeria's current debt from China is responsible for the Abuja/Lagos/Kano/PH/Enugu airports which are being remodeled, it's also responsible for the Abuja to Kaduna standard gauge rail which is now up and running, it's also responsible for the Lagos - Ibadan standard gauge rail and the 3500mw Mambilla hydro dam.

It's not every time we have to diss our own country, simply because of political leaning, albeit in an uninformed manner. Meanwhile the above projects cut across more than one administration.

It's a Tuesday afternoon and these crowds come out everyday at different locations to shout APC and PDP. This says a lot about the employment situation in Nigeria.

Wetin this guy dey sing sef? ... Actually havent ever heard any of his songs. What exactly gives him money and how is he a star? I guess he's totally into some kind of abstract genre. But then, why is his art not popular in Nigeria?

Is Pastor Chris Okafor a cripple or a deaf and dumb fellow that he cannot lead a protest against bad governance today?....

Is there a rule somewhere in the constitution that says only a certain selected people (e.g. Bakare, Soyinka and Ezekwesili) must always lead protests for a better Nigeria?....

When the Yaradua cabal seized control of Nigeria and was tossing GEJ about like a puppet, it was people like Pastor Bakare and Soyinka that went under the sun and rain to protest and fight for Nigeria to be saved. Where were people like Pastor Okafor then?... sitting comfortably in his self made empire receiving tithes and first fruits.

Likewise when GEJ got in power and was exhibiting lack of control with every idiot looting away the country's destiny, it was the same set of people that stood up, braved the soldier bullets and protested against bad leadership. Once again, people like Okafor kept mum.

Now the current govt is in there misbehaving, what exactly ties the legs of folks like Pastor Chris Okafor from leading a protest?... Must it be the same set of people year in, decade out?... Recently a group of my friends who are youths in their twenties were blasting an almost 90 year old Soyinka why he wasn't coming to lead a protest to save Nigeria; this is an almost 90 year old who has led protests since the 60s and even spent a portion of his life in jail. And the youths wonder why the old folks arent retiring...

Another classic case of 'much ado over nothing'.

These election days, too many people just seem to desperately grasp on to meaningless straws as if their lives depends on it. Okay, the VP lied about his pilots all being Nigerian, and so fvcking what? How exactly does that change anything?

But then again, all the pilots of the presidential air fleet, who also double as the official pilots of the president and VP are Nigerians. So how exactly did the VP lie about that?... That the VP boards a chartered chopper belonging to a private company, and the chopper happens to be flown by a foreigner, I'm still wondering how that invalidates what the VP said about his pilots being Nigerian.

Meanwhile, I just watched the so called video of the Asian looking man stepping out of the cockpit of the chopper. Firstly, the man wasnt even dressed like a pilot but let's assume he is. A lot of people on this thread masturbating over this nonsense, including the so called Professor Kperoogi are obviously ignorant of the fact that a helicopter captain mainly sits on the right hand side, not on the left as in planes.

[s]Here Are The Top Presidential Candidates... Pick Your President...

Atiku

Buhari

Sowore

Donald

Okotie.


Candidates Coming Up Shortly.

Vote for the best candidate of your choice by clicking[/s] 'Like'

Is this supposed to be a sour joke or what exactly?... How can Moghalu, the most sound and most qualified candidate not be in your so called list of top contenders?... And then who even said Okotie is contesting?

...and to even think that the Nairaland MoDs thought it wise/appropriate to move this to the frontpage as th official Nairaland poll, leaves one wondering.

beamtopola:
Wike just gain from it. The supreme court judgment is one of the out come of the tape.

Please kindly educate me; how exactly did the unrelated, meaningless audio tapes published by Reno influence supreme court judgement between Tonye Cole vs Magnus Abe?

peteroria1001:
The next thing you will hear is 'I was doctored '

Amaechi said Nigerian police is corrupt/not to be trusted. How exactly is this news and why does it excite any normal person?.. I'm totally lost on this one.

It's still not clear what benefits, political or otherwise that Reno or the PDP stand to gain from publishing these audio recordings.

Is there anyone in Nigeria that isnt aware the police are corrupt?... Why/how exactly is this news, and how exactly does this indict Amaechi or apc?

Strangely though, this actually excites some pdp supporters.

sonnie10:
I must take credit for the building of this cancer center. Ask me why and I will update later.

Lol... why please?... The last time I checked, it was me and my partners that donated all the high end equipment in the centre as part of our CSR.

rentAcock:
You are so right. Cancer must have been off the radar due to under diagnosing, however the influx of Western foods, rampant use of microwave and radiation emiting cell phones might do us in.

Has the exact cause of cancer really been scientifically proven?... Those thing you mentioned above are just high contenders.

OdikwaRisky:
I remember when i started getting stretch marks on my fair, flawless breasts last year, I was so upset I was almost in tears but I’ve come to love and accept them. My boyfriends still love me laidat. Men will offer Millions just to kiss those marks. Gosh I’m so blessed to be beautiful sha. Thank you Jesus

Men actually do loooove the sight of stretch marks on boobs and the asses; I find it very sexy/attractive, and I know I'm not alone in this... The only people who think it isnt nice are your fellow girls.

ZaOzaRoom:
I love stretch marks on ladies ass and boobs
It turns me on.
I've been wondering why it has been like that for me
Any science to prove it?

You're certainky not alone, maybe we're from another world, but I also see absolutely nothing ugly about stretch marks. They actually look beautiful/sexy on boobs and bums.

rentAcock:
That MRI machine looks really sexy. Nigerians had a very low incidence of cancer up until the mid 2000s when American food chains like KFC and all these pizza joints started flooding Nigeria. Now more and more Nigerians are dying from cancer because instead of them to eat the food that's native to them, they prefer the white man's food. God created everyone to better adapt to their environment, once you start making artificial alterations, that's when unfathomable diseases and illness arise. There's a reason why the white man's medications doesn't cure diabetes or hypertension in Africans this is mainly because our genetic makeup is different from the white man, our herbs and natural food is our medicine.

The bolded part of your comment above, permit me to drop my thoughts. There's this widespread belief that cancer wasnt a Nigerian problem until recently. But I believe that isn't true.

Cancer has always existed in Nigeria, but we never and we still hardly ever diagnose it. Millions of Nigerians die from cancer regularly but it's never diagnosed; how many times have you seen obituaries or heard stories aboit a person dying "after a brief illness"?... In cases where the victim had some suspicious neighbours or family/village people, we just instantly conclude it was juju influenced brief illness, and then spend the rest of our time and resources going from pastor to prophet. Meanwhile the person died of some form of cancer. The only cancer we diagnose in Nigeria are the ones that have a visible representation, e.g. lumps in breast cancer etc.

If we really had proper diagnosis in Nigeria, you will be shocked at the true statistics of cancer related deaths in Nigeria.

dante0147:
Some people are just posting next level like when has a state owned business now concerns the FG.

On this same thread about cancer cantre, some are bragging about it being an achievement of APC/PMB, some are saying no it was built by MTN, some say it was conceived, fully paid for and started by GEJ over 4 years ago, and now this gentleman claims it belongs to a state govt (apparently a state govt left the state hospitals and decided to equip a federal one). Oh lest I forget, I dude even claimed the place has just 2 doctors, of which one is even too old to come to work.

Nigerian political discussions can indeed be amusing at election times like this.

Where in earth do all these people come from?... The unemployment is real!

In these kind of jobs, the candidate needs to read the tiny prints carefully.. Further requirements not posted on twitter might be - 22-30 years old, light skinned female who also should be able to take care of adult males.

Lol..

ikorodureporta:

Engilish isn't my lankwache..

Abeg you cant blame the guy. Depending on a person's mindset, he could read it a different way

2006/2007 - MOU for this project was signed by OBJ.

2012 - GEJ renegotiated and signed another MOU.

2016/2017 - PMB and co concluded the agreement, secured the loan, paid the counterpart funding required for the project to start, and the construction started.

We love arguing over meaningless things in this country.

Buhari get mind shaa... after his poor handling of the security situation there, they still get to go there for campaigns?

And what exactly is the benefit to Nigerians if the FG keeps holding on to state assets which it will NEVER be able to manage efficiently?... Nonsense!

The kind of moral and value system we practice in Nigeria is just bizarre. So is the writer of this article saying that because a person did his job by ruling in my favour 10 years ago, it then becomes my duty to cover them up for life even if they commit an offense?
