jamiudinho:

So the fight against bokoharam terrorists is indeed viewed by northern Muslims as a fight against northern Muslims?... Buying arms for the Nigerian military is interpreted by northern Muslims as a ploy by Christians to exterminate Muslims.

Nigeria is indeed an ireedamably messed up place. Nigeria is truly finished.

The year is not even halfway yet, but we've secured more TECH investment than the whole of last year.

Tech Investors are rushing to Nigeria with their investments, but according to you, Nigeria is not investor-friendly.

grin grin
Nigeria is actually not investor friendly, very far from it... Infact, Nigeria as it is currently is extremely hostile to investors, both local and foreign.

The only reason investors still come to Nigeria despite the harsh environment is because of Nigeria's market power; i.e. there's just so so much money to be made in Nigeria, so some investors brave the odds. Even the twitter guys just said it openly, despite not opening shop in Nigeria (for obvious reasons), their target market is still Nigeria, because of the money to be made.

You talk about tech investments rushing to Nigeria, the summary of my point is, if the Nigerian govt can wake up and do what its meant to do, the influx of those tech companies would multiply in exponential proportions. We are very far from where we should be.

Not just Kaduna state but just about all 36 states and the federal government. The civil service is overbloated with personnel who hardly do anything but just take salaries. And when a new government comes in, the only thing our leaders know how to do in the area of unemployment, is to cluelessly recruit thousands into an already redundant civil service.

Politics › Re: Why Sowore Supports IPOB Terrorist Leader Nnamdi Kanu by obailala(m): 5:00pm On Apr 09, 2021
thebosstrevor1:
In 2019, IPOB terrorist leader, Nnamdi Kanu and sowore met in Newyork, the meeting was an alliance between IPOB, Revolution now and Sahara reporters. Nnamdi kanu wants Biafra and Sowore wants a revolution in Nigeria, with the help of sowore Sahara reporters, they can achieve their dreams.

Since that meeting, sowore have published everything favourable about the terrorist group IPOB and everything negative about Nigeria.

Sowore is very smart, he wants revolution, his calculation was simple, he knows that Nnamdi kanu cannot get his biafra while sitting in London and that biafra is unrealistic but for him, as long as ipob can create choas and tension ,the easier for him to get his revolution.

The Endsar was an eye opener, when Nnamdi kanu commanded the destruction of properties through the help of so called influencers, he sowore quickly brought the revolution now project out but it failed because of lack of support.

No matter what, sowore plan is still intact for 2023, Ipob creates the tension he wants, he spreads the tension through Sahara reporters, choas is created all over Nigeria and he can start a nationwide revolution campaign to gain power.
Hmmm... never knew it was IPOB members who conducted ENDSARS protests and also vandalised properties in Lagos and other locations.
Politics › Re: Owerri Prison Break: Uzodimma Blames 'Known Imo Politicians' (Video) by obailala(m):
This actually makes sense somehow. I've always asked, "why Imo state?"

ESN is meant to protect the southeast against marauding herdsmen. There have never really been any cases of herdsmen attacks in Imo; so why is Imo suddenly the starting point and epicentre of the so called ESN / unknown gunmen activities? How exactly did ESN suddenly lose focus, leave herdsmen and start going after police stations and prisons?

Something tells me the so called 'unknown gunmen' have absolutely nothing to do with ESN but are just armed political thugs playing politics. The current crisis in Imo is just a local ApC vs PDP vs AA, Rochas vs Uzodimma political battle.
Politics › Re: Gunmen Attack Mbieri Police Station In Imo, Kidnap Policeman, Free Suspects by obailala(m):
Penguin2:
I insist that Uzodimma brought this upon himself.

ESN were a sleeping lion in the bush but you invited soldiers on them.

Reap the fruit of your stupidity Uzodimma.

Meanwhile, why haven't we heard of any herdsmen attack anywhere in Imo state state?

Even herdsmen cannot can grin

They too are scared of Unknown Gunmen.

For those foaming in the mouth that the SE is about to become another NE and that Imo is about to become Borno, I say thunder fire you.

Since all these things started, how many civilian casualties have been recorded? None.

Ndigbo place value on life and can never ever started killing innocent citizens.

The message is simple...

Nigerian Armed forces should dismantle thousands of checkpoints in the Southeast. This place is not a war zone.

You mount roadblocks extorting Igbo peasants and being trigger happy by killing anyone who resists giving you #50.

Enough!

Forever!

If there has to be another war, let there be another war.

If we perish, we perish!
When bokoharam started, they first started as a peaceful sect, attqcking no one. When they eventually began attacks, for several months and even years, they never attacked any innocent civilians, they only attacked police station to station, throwing bombs, chasing policemen away, and freeing prisoners. When they eventually started attacking civilians, they started with Christians and southerners.

We all know how things progressed after northerners kept making silly excused for them; the monster grew wild cos whether North, East, West or South, baby monsters will always grow wild and one day consume their masters.

By the way, Imo state has never really recorded any cases of herdsmen attacks even long before ESN or 'unknown gunmen'. So why on earth is the supposed ESN campaign against herdsmen having Imo state as its centrepoint? Why is ESN flexing muscles by burning police stations around Imo state where there's really no herdsmen menace? Something tells me this is just a local political APC vs PDP vs Rochas gimmick against Uzodimma.

Of course. And feel free to monitor your significant other like a child because they can't possibly avoid temptation by themselves.
Well, i wouldn't monitor or stalk anyone; I would only apply a little bit of wisdom in my daily activities. E.g. I wouldnt encourage a situation where my friend or even brother goes over to stay with my wife alone in the house repeatedly or for extended periods. If that's what you refer to as 'monitoring my significant other as a child', then oh yes, I will... Not that I dont trust my wife's discipline, or my brother's discipline, but rather because I'm wise enough to know that discipline alone isn't sufficient to prevent certain regretable mishaps. Believing in the strength of your discipline is usually the mother of all f**kups.

This is where we're going to have disagree. No woman (or man) should be minding their significant other like a child. If that person cannot avoid temptation on their own, it speaks volumes about their disposition and character. Plus, your assessment doesn't work for people who are in long-distance relationships.
Okay its fine - feel free to not play your part in helping your significant other avoid temptations. It's solely their responsibility, not yours.

It's not holier than thou. It's just simple facts. The OP had options at his disposal that he didn't utilize. Your second point goes back to a long-standing stereotype that it's the woman's job to ensure that her husband/boyfriend is not tempted by other women. The OP is a grown man and if he's willing to get married, then he needs to learn to keep his dîck in his pants and be faithful. This is all on the OP because he never told his fiancee that the younger sister was frequenting his place as often as she was. In fact, the sister had started to lie about her own whereabouts and the OP never stopped her. There will always be temptation but people in committed relationships need to avoid the temptation. The OP should've avoided temptation at all costs. Do not put his shortcomings on the fiancee.

You should be giving your advice to me the OP. You don't need to quote me to do that.
Oh yes, it's the OP's responsibility to keep his D in his pants, and also avoid placing himself in any tempting scenario. But it's also the fiancee's responsibility to do whatever she can to keep her man away from temptation (this responsibility goes both ways in a flipped situation so there's no stereotype here).

The summary of the point I tried to make was that the fiancee trusted her man just too much and the OP ignorantly trusted his 'self discipline' too much; trusting oneself to be sufficiently disciplined is usually the beginning of all f**kups.

iRepNaija1:
OP, you should let Grace go honestly. Things like this just don't happen. You wrote a whole novel explaining the lead-up to how you slept with your fiancee's sister. And the excuses you come up with to try and rationalize it, haba. OP, you had options:

1) Go to a friend's house
2) Ask Abigail to leave your house
3) Tell Abigail you're not home
4) Don't answer the door
5) Tell Grace to kindly ask her sister not to visit as often
6) You didn't need to share a blanket with her
7) You didn't need to put your hand on her thigh

You wanted it to happen. You wanted to sleep with Abigail ever since you noticed her body had developed. You had so many choices and you chose this path. If you're going to take responsibility, at least own it properly.

The point of being in a relationship and/or marriage is that you make the active choice of forsaking others for the person you have chosen. You avoid compromising situations like this. OP, you even said that you can't do any better than Grace and you still put what you have with her at risk. And what's worse, you are trying to blame her by saying she's too trusting. For goodness' sake, Abigail is Grace's sister, her flesh and blood. Who else in this life is she supposed to trust?

You're not providing any benefit to Grace but not telling her. You're just trying to protect yourself from the fallout and the cheating you committed. Someone who was willing to leave his then-girlfriend because she was allegedly doing shakara but you're forcing her to stay with you after you fûcked her sister. Nonsense.
No need for all these long holier than thou blames. The truth is simple, if you place two mature adults of the opposite sex in close proximity for long enough, as long as the person isnt gay, pant must drop! This has nothing to do with discipline cos no human (not even you) has that discipline; No amount of discipline can stop this one, that kind of discipline just doesnt exist.

The mistake the Op made was permitting the wife's younger sister to be at his place all the time; the wife also made a gravely naive mistake of permitting her sister to be that close to her husband.

In this situation, I wouldnt advise the OP to tell his wife cos the damage would be too emotionally disastrous and outright heartless, especially since the person involved is her sister. What has happened has happened; life has to continue, what happens in Vegas, should stay and die in Vegas! The best the OP can do is never to ever ever ever let it happen again and the ONLY WAY to achieve this is by consciously staying far far far away from the wife's sister; there should never be a time when both of them should be alone within the same apartment.

Femi is fond of spewing irresponsible gibberish, but he's right on this one; Buhari never made that statement about turning N1 to $1. That was just a rumour generated by irresponsible journalism. The title of that Vanguard report was totally different from the content of the report.

Buhari - “It is sad that the value of the naira has dropped to more than N230 to one dollar; this does not speak well for the nation’s economy,’’
Report Title - "I will make 1 naira equal to 1 dollar"


The journalist who coined the title of that report knows too well that black men don't read or analyse beyond headlines; that explains why of the numerous failures of the govt that can be criticised, it is just this false report we're still arguing 6 years after..

ScamHunter:
Some of us warned Benue and Southern Kaduna people in 2014 of the calamity of voting APC but they, like Yoruba shouted Sai Baba. Today, Fulani agenda is on course just like the German Machine of 1914. This is the consequence when a people lack foresight to the point of empowering an enemy bent on destroying them. Imagine being trapped in a room with a 12 foot King Cobra. That is the closest present scenario. Even if they're unable to eliminate Ortom, they'll surely plant their stooge like they did throughout the South after Ortom is gone in 2 years. What I find intriguing is that they do not even care that these are regions that handed Nigeria over to them. They're still bent on destroying them. Imagine the US Consulate in Lagos recognizing the Sarkin Fulani in Lagos Yorubaland. Doesn't that tell you that what Mr Igboho is saying that Lagos is conquered by Fulani is correct? Reminds me of the British recognition of the Emir of Ilorin instead of the Balogun who had even grown more powerful than the Emir when the British arrived Ilorin. You see, it'll take having men like Igboho and Kanu rally the natives, otherwise, this country is already gone.
And the solution to this Fulani problem is for Benue and Kaduna people to have voted PDP, because you believe Fulani militia were not also killing them in their thousands under PDP rule?

Crime › Re: Insecurity: Nigerians In Diaspora Have No Right To Complain - Dep. Speaker HoR by obailala(m): 4:09pm On Mar 15, 2021
phylshan:
Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Idris Wase has declared Nigerians in the Diaspora have no right sending petitions to the House on issues happening in Nigeria.

Specifically, he said they have no right to complain about insecurity since they don’t live around.

Wase, who represents Wase Federal Constituency, Plateau State, said this at a plenary last Thursday while sitting in for Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila.

He said Nigerians who sit in their comfort zones abroad are not eligible to file petitions against the Federal Government on issues regarding insecurity.

He spoke when a lawmaker, Mark Gbillah, representing Gwer East-Gwer West constituency of Benue State, attempted to submit a petition filed by Mzough U Tiv Amerika on insecurity in Benue, Nasarawa and Taraba.

Gbillah had explained he was submitting the petition on behalf of MUTA because indigenes of the affected states had been sacked from their ancestral lands.

Before he could speak further, however, Wase, who is of the ruling All Progressives Congress, said: “Honourable Gbillah, did you say Tivs in America? What do they know about Nigeria?

“What is their business? They can’t sit in their comfort zones and know what is happening in Nigeria.”

The Deputy Speaker argued Nigerians abroad have no rights to file a petition on the crisis, stating that it would be understandable “if this petition is coming from those who are within the country.”

Gbillah argued that Nigerians abroad should be able to file complaints because they have family members residing in the state.

Wase quickly countered by asking if MUTA was duly registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission.


But Gbillah responded by saying Section 40 of the constitution does not stop citizens from freedom of association.

Gbillah argued that Nigeria had been pursuing a policy of inclusiveness for its citizens in the Diaspora, an aim that would easily be defeated if the same category of Nigerians cannot be allowed to speak on raging matters of national concern.

“I’ll refer you to the functions of the committee on Diaspora, if you go through that, it is nothing relevant to what you’re now presenting, I’m not convinced that we have to take that petition,” Wase said.

Gbillah’s petition was subsequently rejected without any opposition from any member in the chamber
