Great. These highlights will be mutually beneficial. Nigeria to get infrastructure development and strengthened security. While Russia will have a reliable friend in Africa and access to minerals resources and food supply.

The damage Trump has done to US Foreign Relations will take decades to repair globally.

Lolzzzzz.


Wake up from your dream. This is Nigeria leaders okay. If their so called bilateral agreement, MoU, foreign trips have been yielding results, my goodness Nigeria wont be this shithole.

Nigerian politicians are the most stupid the world over.

They are a typical example of take a pig, give it a good shower, cloth it with fine linen, put a nose ring, just give it one day, it will return to the dirt.

They dont learn anything from oyinbo. They are pure senseless devils

festacman:
I rate the bilateral meeting a success.I hope implementation of the agreements will also be successfully done.

Revival of Ajaokuta Steel Complex will a massive accomplishment if successfully done. Billions of Naira invested as well as looted over the years.

I am not clear about "Russia plan to establish nuclear plant in Nigeria". Does anybody knows what this implies in clear terms?

One good about this Buhari administration is the use of government-to-government relationship window to get critical projects done as opposed to government-to-company in which corrupt and insincere government officials shamelessly shortchange our country in structuring agreements. This approach was adopted in dealing Siemens through German government for power projects.

We are making progress.

Efcc doesn't have case with mompha.interpol initiate his arrest after he fled Dubai.interpol got him through his flight ticket and efcc was put on alert to arrest him.
Mompha will be extradicted , federal government or any government official cannot influence interpol arrest. Mompha is in hot soup. all his Asset in Dubai is gone already.those wrist watch was his only asset he could move out.unfortunately it has ended up with Efcc.

Okay. This efcc sef, why dey come dey pose like say na them start the process? Lol. They dont even have gadgets to track criminals na only gossip be their gadget �

LAZAREY:
Unlike American Politics dominated by youths like Trump, Biden, Pelosi, and Hillary Clinton. Ugly woman.

Lol. But no comparison with American old politicians and Naija old politicians. The conditions of the two countries will tell the difference.

Thank you Governor Obi, but 2M is too small ( even for treatment)

Of course, thanks for his donation but Obi is known to be stupidly stingy. He makes mockery of himself with being a miser. Lol

Ololanla:
Over-hyped average player. With the likes of Hazard, Real Madrid is going trophyless this season. Shame!!!

Hazard though is a wonderful above average player, but not the class of Messi, Mbappe, Sterling, for now. These guys are fantastically intelligent when it comes to getting the ball into the net.

eTECTIV:
Lolźzzz... Where are those ediots who flooded my mention for calling him a criminal and laughing at his predicament... How d mighty have fallen..

His wealth is questionable though, but anything that has to do with Nigeria believe it at your own peril. I would have believed he was 100 percent criminal if he was arrested by FBI, Interpol or something and not some crappy mediocre EFCC known for witch hunting. Who really have EFCC convicted of internet fraud?

He will soon get bail and that's the end of story. Then he continues where he stopped.

aolawale025:
Truth is customs have failed. Nigeria just pushing the buck to the neighbouring countries

Nigeria leaders at every sphere are bunch of low-minded dumb heads.

First, the Nigerian government didnt call IMF names because they agreed with them on this, but if it were the opposite they would have called IMF names.

Second, the custom lunatic boss is pushing this too long and too far. Huwaie and Google thing may soon play part if they push this too long.

Second, the daft Custom boss has no solution or plan on ground, ready to be implemented, on how to solve a problem all he knows is to close boarder and let them come to a round table agreement with Nigeria. what an idiot. mind you the round table agreement might take years to conclude since nobody has any plan at hand to bring on the table once a meeting is scheduled.

I wish i was born elsewhere and not Africa

danny56:
See why I hate poverty with passion...?

Poverty robs a man of his ego and make him look less of a man. My brother know your God and fight poverty with everything you've got.

Not always easy man, If fighting poverty in Nigeria is as a wrestling contest, only very few will be poor because many will go train so hard like mad that no poverty faced wont be defeated.

But it is not. The swift doesn't always win the race nor the mighty win the battle nor the wise always have wealth. Winning poverty is purely based on luck so far as Africa is concerned

computergeek:
So I’ve never actually brought a personal issue to this forum, but this one is beyond me and I don’t know the best course of action to take here. I believe that there are people here who may have had a similar experience or might know what best to do. This may be a bit long.

So there’s this neighbor of mine whom I have an after-school agreement with. She’s a stay-at-home mum with two kids (a nursing baby and a four-year-old) while I have one child (also four). I usually leave my office at 4:00pm, so the agreement is, after-school at 12:30pm, I’ll go pick up the kids (they go to the same school) and return to work while she watches my son for me. I get my son his lunch and snacks before he goes there, even though she’s begged me to stop doing that, but I can’t saddle her with feeding a child that’s not hers.

The issue now is, a lot of violent things have happened in that house and as of this week, my son won’t be returning there. But I fear for the woman. Our homes are separated by a wall, but we often hear the arguing and crying sometimes. I knew she was having marital issues but I didn’t know the extent.

About two weeks ago, I went to get my son from the house and I noticed he wasn’t talking as usual. My son is the very boisterous type who likes to bounce as he walks, and he’ll usually try to take the key from my hand so he’ll open the door himself. That day, he wasn’t talking as usual. He seemed scared and shaken up. I knew the woman would sometimes punish the kids by asking them to kneel down when they fought, but she wouldn’t hit them. I asked him what the issue was, if anyone at school or home had been looking for his trouble, the guy said no.
He’s very close to his father (they are best friends), so when my husband came home I asked him to talk to the boy because he couldn’t choke his food down. After about a while, my son opened up. Apparently, he’d witnessed a very violent beating that he was struggling to find the right words to explain. He said that David’s father had been punching his mother in the passage with two hands at a time, and when she’d tried to run, he brought her back and beat her more. He said that he and David had to hide under the table because they were scared of getting hurt. He then said the mother raised a flower vase and hit him on his head, but the man continued beating her and shouting at her.

I didn’t know what to say. My son had witnessed a violent beating and it traumatized him. We soothed the boy and told him to forget about it. I then knew why the woman didn’t come out to hand him over as she usually did when I went to get him. He just came to me by himself.
The next day, I was skeptical about taking my son back there but he said he doesn’t want to stop playing with David and Sandra (the one-year-old baby). After school, I picked the boys up and drove them home. David’s mom came to the door and her face was badly bruised. I had to ask her what was wrong, but she hurriedly said she fell down and then took the kids from me.

On Friday last week, two days ago, the worst happened. It was around 3:00 or 3:30 when the woman called me at work. I picked the phone up and it was my son. He said that David’s mummy was lying on the floor and wasn’t opening her eyes. He said she was still moving but she couldn’t open her eyes. That blood was coming out her nose and mouth and their daddy had driven away. My heart literally flew out of my chest.

I called my husband as I was driving home and told him to meet us at the hospital. Long story cut short, she was badly battered and torn apart, almost about to give up life. I took her and all the kids to the hospital. While they were cleaning her wounds and hooking her up to the IV, I sorted out the bills. My husband tried to reach out to hers but he was rejecting the calls, so he went to make a statement at the area police command. They told us to contact them once she wakes up to give her statement. The police doesn’t usually like to dabble into marital issues but the woman was disfigured beyond imagination.

Sadly, you won’t believe what she said when she came to after a few hours. She started begging us to not report to anybody and not even call her family. That she’ll refund us the hospital bills and we should just call her friend that lives in New Haven to come and look after her. She was trying to protect the beast that had beaten her and left her for dead. We tried to reason with her because the man would certainly kill her sooner or later. She said he’s her husband and the father of her kids, bla bla bla. She told us that she’d been confronting him about a girl he’d been gallivanting openly with him, and that’s been the cause of all their issues.

She told me to use my number and call her husband because he doesn’t have me as a contact. I called him and told him the wife he tried to kill was in the hospital. He told me that she had better remain there because he’ll kill her if she ever comes near his house again. He hung up on me. She’s still insisting that he doesn’t mean it and she must go back once she’s discharged.

The issue now is, should we withdraw the police report or take the case up? The woman’s life is in danger and she doesn’t seem to understand the seriousness of her situation, writing it off as momentary anger. I don’t know why women choose to remain in these violent situations even when they have children to live for. She’s not even thinking about her one-year-old who has been with me all weekend.

Mature advice is needed here. Pease push to front page. I don’t know if we’ll be overstepping our boundaries by trying to help her.

To save a soul, don't keep calm and allow that poor vulnerable woman to be killed by that beast.

Okenye anaghi ano n'ulo ewu amuo n'ogbu. meaning an elder would not be at home and watch a goat give birth while tired to a stick.

So, find the poor woman's family. She has parents, brothers, sisters, those are the people you should contact ASAP let them come take their daughter or else they take her corpse.

Esseite:
This is just hypocrisy, you are a minister under a govt increasing cost of living while you are here comparing same country with other developed countries..

My goodness African leaders are animals equivalent. He is only saying this truth because he wants to defend his padded useless idiotic budget, then when approved he feeds the prisoner with 30 naira and siphons the rest.

Please, who will answer me, are African leaders really humans?

buhariguy:
Just that buhari stil remain the best, if it was the past leaders like thief obj and gej, by now they would have sabotage the economy

You see, has buhari or his apc ever say IMF was right for once when it comes to their findings about Nigeria?

This will show you the difference between sane IMF and insane primitive dumb African leaders who never accept they are wrong and correct it.

IMF will support your economic policies when they agree it's right irrespective of whoever does it.

TheMainMan:
cool... So almost all this small africa countries depends on us

Them no depend on Nigeria per say. Them fit buy most of those goods from other countries oo. Just that many naija guys are business wise. Them dey go deep into every nooks and crannies and open people eyes to so many businesses. Like the Europeans come enter Africa open their eyes. E get this guy wey i know wella just left for one African country a few months ago come discover one business na only him dey supply the goods from Naija. Mennn, any amount of waybill wey you send this guy, he sells them off in two days and returns money.

Boringdraw1:
Wonder-shall-never-end see jealousy in nairalanders comment. How can you compare a UK university to a Nigeria university. No Nigeria university is in top 200 institutions around the world yet you say a third class degree holder in Nigeria can be levelled against a first class degree holder from a UK institution. But you want hustle hard make your child attend one school for UK. It this not jealousy and hypocrisy.

Maybe they meant that the stress one goes through in our universities couple with lack of learning facilities, sound and unbiased lecturers; not conducive environment, hunger, malaria, and barrages of sicking news around Nigeria make it fantastically impossible to achieve the deserved academic excellence.

So if one gets Third Class under these unfavorable conditions in Nigeria, probably that person will get first class in any institutions in the Western world without those bedevilling challenges ?

Onyi22:
Like play like play Mike don become celebrity ooooo

Story. Na so Tin Tall and co do initial gra gra. Honestly na only Miracle be smartest BB Naija guy wey i don see. Ebuka too

If he is found guilty Siasia kind of punishment should follow right away, if not then FiFA is APC in the Western world.


NB: Where is Osy Ukeje, that TV guy then??

PNomsule:
With a wife this beautiful, I wouldn't have a need to remarry.

Lol. Not really beauty per say. The man has an atom of paedophilia in him. Lol

luminouz:
A Moroccan with such lovely honey coloured hair?
Its just like seeing a blond Iranian!!!

That's rare!! They mostly have black hair

These days you rarely can tell who is blond. Hair coloring is very common now. Just get into a salon and get your desired hair color and style.

contigiency:
Everything to you is shity shity, please what role are you contributing to develop the country? And I will advice, if the country is shity as you are putting it, I will advice that you can relocate to the next country where castles are built by mere wishes without the efforts of all and sundry.

But one thing I will tell people like you who have given up in this country is to calm down. Things are not as bad as being estimated and projected. After all known of you can attest to have seen those giving all those statistics coming to collect data from you or anyone you know.

And very importantly, I can tell you that very soon, foreigners will stamped and hustle to get Nigerian vista. It might sound funny, but Mark today's date.

Management in Economics states that for you to solve a problem, you must first accept that the problems lies. But look at you denying it.

Nigeria is on a reverse mode mr man. Stop denying this country is unlivable for humans. Give visa waiver to Nigerians to move to any country of their choice, and see if anybody will remain in this shithole. Your president prefers being overseas than being in his country which is why he budgeted more money for his foreign travels than his feeding.

Foreigners like fellow African countries who are in a more pathetic situation like Nigeria.

What sane foreigner will justle to live in a country with less than 50 years life expectancy? What a mad foreigner will want to live in a poverty capital? Who will want to stay in a country adjudged to be a grave yard?

who? who wants to live in a country where the hospitals are equivalent to mortuaries with all their leaders dare not use the hospitals in their country? Dare not send their kids to their below standard school? tell me? Unless the foreigner is mentally unstable.

contigiency:
You must not comment, it's not by force. How can you say that government intervention in those areas you mentioned are not important? Tomorrow you will say that leadership is your right simply because you are a youth. But see your reasoning.

As for those other areas you mentioned like power, Agriculture etc, you will agree with me that government is seriously doing something about them. For instance, government has signed an M.O.U with Siemens for incremental electricity generation and distribution between now and 2025.

On agriculture, I don't have to inform you what measures government is taking to address that sector. The major problem there is largely you and I who prefer foreign food even when they fall below the standard we have in this country. Government has taken a step further by banning food importation so that we all can look inward and patronize our own foods and help for the government investments in the sector to yield the desired result. Though I will not be surprised if you also criticised that policy of government.

On human capital development, you see why I said you must not comment. You criticized N-power, trader money etc, then you turn to say you prefer human development. Please what's the major issue the N-power is addressing if not largely human development? In case you don't know, N-power is 100% human development. That's you have N-build where technicians are trained to modern approach to what they are doing. You have N-teach where young graduates are to teach and develop those in secondary schools. You have N-health where the medics are to work in health centers. But in all of these, many who are already working still deceitfully joined the N-power even though it's meant for the unemployed graduates. While others who even though there are unemployed, collects the money without delivering the services. Yet, they come here to criticise and lampoon the government for all the ills befalling this country. Habba!!! That's bad.

You are myopic. Go check Nigeria Developmental indices they keep getting worse. Your likes are who deserves to be in this shithole. Since 1960 until now, all those craps you call government efforts and intervention have been there yet Nigeria ranked poverty capital of the world, most miserable country in the world, and so on. You call those shitty N-power human capital development? You are ignorant to think 30k a month to someone develops them in anyway.

My goodness what a mediocre.

Ask yourself is nigeria getting better or worse?

If worse then those shitty things you mentioned are working, but if not, then they are still not good enough.

It's appalling that at this age Nigerians like you still celebrate mediocrity when western world are one billion years ahead. tufiakwa

Blacks are really not fit to rule themselves. They rush to do irrelevant things that will not move the couch try forward. e.g. N-Power, Trader Money, School feeding, now sanitary pad.

But ignores the things that will move the country forward. Power sector, Infrastructures both in health and education, Human capital development. Investment is agriculture, creation of employment. What a a nation.

Igbalaoluwa:
Which kind of hypocrisy is this
He can 'sympathize'
But when it was time for action he did nothing
We Nigerians are too docile. Some of our leaders need to be beaten up

This guy is a clown. A simpleton with IQ less than %10. His hairstyle, like the one we wore in the 90's, His facial looks, all and his bleaching all gave him away as a daft man without modern ideas to move a state forward.

Go to the state this man is almost putting streetlights in all the forests in Anambra state yet fail to build roads. No developmental project to move the state forward, drive investors and increase the standard of living.

Peter Obi knew this guy is dumb yet he chose to make him his successor just because of selfish interest.

The truth is that Nigeria is a failed state.

ursullalinda:
The funny thing is that even some lectures are victims of harassment but once is the opposite no one believes. So every one needs to be at alert and gather evidence

No student threatens a lecture with sack if he doesn't give in to her sexual advances. But the lecturers do threaten the victims with "you will never pass this course unless" "you will never graduate unless" "I will make sure you are rusticated if you don't"

So please support your fellow women.

Good move. But give this one year, Nigeria factor comes into play and the so called taskforce becomes infiltrated.

The first solid move is to enact a law at least 10 years without an option of fine.

The way most lecturers do this is they wait for their targets to get into a trouble and then come seek for their help. Or they trap them by setting hard exams questions knowing full well that just a very few smart students will scale through the questions. This one no be hearsay, I had two of my female friends harassed during our university days.

durai:
Was it only Takam nd klitschko he fought wit.av u checked his previous fights....AJ has bn training hard..He wants to get his belt back ...nd he nids our support

Yeah, the same way we have been supporting super eagles, drumming and singing praises in stadium, yet they get beaten silly all the time. Same support Arsenal fans have given them yet they never played Champions league in three straight seasons. Mr. the whole lies with AJ to up his game, improve his skills. With or without our support, he will win is he is best at what he does.

jaxxy:
U forget Aj sent him to the canvas 1st b4 he lost his footing and Ruiz got the best of him. Let’s not overhype the situation.

AJ has never recovered so quickly like that when floored. Watch Klitschko's fight. The last fight before this one with the 38 year old Povetkin. It took AJ rounds to recover from the shots that bled his nose. AJ is good we know, but he needs to learn a lot in boxing before facing the likes of Wilder, Tyson Fury.

Sleevia:
The only lesson I learned from this is that you Nigerians are hypocrite and two face.

The same AJ you lots praised to the high heaven is same one you are belittling now.

I hope and wish AJ shock you all.

You seem to be sentimental. Be logical. Go watch all AJ fights. Compare to this guy you will see how tough Andy will be. Unless he improves. Whyte exposed AJ, Klitschiko did too, he would have finished off AJ, it was just luck on AJ, side. Andy floored him 3 times. Takam who everybody floored, AJ struggled to beat him. Just take away sentiments and watch AJ. which is why Eddy Hearn is running away from Wilder. Go read what retired heavy weights said about AJ, one even advised him to change his trainer. You are the one Nigerian who believes in luck and miracle like super eagles will turn to prayer warriors before a match and still get beaten silly. Mr, in life, whatever you do learn to perfection and believe in it.

midolian:
I think this guy will again...

Yeah, very likely. From all Andy's fights he seems to have iron cheeks to take shots. Unlike AJ who hardly take a shot without wobbling. Check his fights he cant stand a shot without visibly showing that he feels the punch. Again, he is a slow puncher unlike Andy who is very fast. AJ will understand that this fight will be his hardest fight ever. Andy is a monster. watch his trainings and previous fights � AJ is not even a skillful fighter with good head movements and foot work.

doctokwus:
That guy placing his camera so close to that charred corpse just to snap it,is so revoltingly sickening.
Those are the kinds of people you don't pity when similar faith befall them.

Now you know that blacks are another set of humans out of this world. Majority of them are not humans. They have black heart, black brain, black reasoning and are soulless. That's why a horrible incident like that will happen and women, children, aged will gather around enjoying the horrendous sight, snapping and videoing instead of helping. Any real human will dare not watch such a gory and heart-wrenching sight not to talk of remembering to take pics and videos

mrvitalis:
Do u also know that over 35 trillion was used to pay civil servants?

Lol. Ghost workers you mean.

mrvitalis:
U mean Nigeria earned ...this analysis is so flawed

13% derivation is their
Nddc funding is here
Then federal government gets 55% of the rest local government n state share the rest

Nigeria earns not federal government

Sometimes I hate being born in Africa. U mean just in 8 years, Nigeria earned over 45 trillion yet the country still remain a pit toilet with over 90 percent fantastically and stupidly poor. This is a curse.
