I read this news in Punch Metro yesterday. Disheartening. May God comfort the family.


That being said, what happened to plagiarism? This guy just lifted news Hook line and sinker as if it was his own. This is what NBC should be sanctioning. Such unethical journalism

What magic will be done to evacuate over 5000 people in 72 hours if less than thousand haven't been airlifted in the first ceasefire window?
Those stranded in Sudan may as well be on their own.

How will a newspaper post 'blood will be shared.' Where is the editor?

Apus:
Politics without bitterness is all we want.
The polity is already heated.

In America, once the election is past, everyone(Democrats & Republicans) come together to see how to move the nation forward.

America lẹ pè láì f'idà a lẹ̀ báyẹn. Nobody comes together o. In fact, no democracy should emulate the contemporary politics of America. It is divisive and is not inspiring.

We are talking about an elected governor jare

Ybholy:
Virginia Etiaba
Anambra State

Ybholy:
she’s not first female governor. What’s wrong with you all

You mind sharing with me?

They Sha want to declare first female governor by force

Such a ridiculous story. Ó to abẹ síbẹ̀ niì

No one should term the Saraki led NA a rebellious cause. The NA isn't meant to complement the executive. Their job is to ensure the executive do their job.
If Saraki was the SP, would Emefiele have held the whole nation to ransom and seemingly walk away with it?

These groundstanding folks are simply dancing to the tune of their sponsors.

Apparently, your heart is not in this relationship. What happened to discussing your plans with her? You both can plan your relocation sontin together. If she is any good as you have insinuated she would gladly support a frugal wedding and you won't have to chew too much into your savings.

Good day familylanders, i consider this part of nairaland as a place with lots of reasonable and mature people so i would like to table my matter here.

Am a 27yr old guy and I have been dating this girl of mine for the past 3years now, she's 24yrs and we have been good, she works in a corporate organization and i also hustle for my daily bread too. I have been able to save a good amount of money, though i don't have tertiary education but have got a very sound mind.

Recently she brought up the issue of marriage and asked me when i intend to come and do the needful, i have met her mom and siblings on a few occasions and the vibes i got from them looks positive. I know she loves me and i also share the same affections for her.

The issue is i don't know if i should relocate abroad with the funds at my disposal because of the situation of this country or remain in naija and proceed with marriage with her.

These media people have come again. What was 'choirmaster' doing in this news? Which church was he attending? Why are they unnecessarily heating things up?

Another misleading headline.
'Isreal launches retaliatory attack following recent aggressions' would have been a better title and true representation of the news item.
Some of the people condemning Israel didn't read in full.

Tntsi:
Tinubu build lagos finish, but goes to Europe for his medical. It is the blind followers I blame.

There's no way to know if you're truly an 'obidient' or someone employed to look like one so that you can provide opportunity to discredit true 'obidients'

For those claiming 'federal government subsidised training' and things like that. It's not true. Higher education in Nigeria is designed as such. You can't compare how much it takes to study Mass Communication in Nigeria with the same abroad. Education is -supposedly- subsidized for everyone going to a government university.

There is no enough number of doctors in Nigeria to begin with. Our schools are not training enough because they lack the capacity to do so. Even UI doesn't have accreditation to admit up to 250 students for medicine in a year. Nigerian medical schools barely churn out a few hundred doctors yearly. So the brain drain isn't simply because they are leaving, the brains are not even there in the first place.

Again, doctors are not the only ones emigrating. For every doctor, five nurses have gone. For every healthcare worker, ten non medical have gone. Shouldn't we be worried about our tech guys leaving? What about infrastructure when the engineers have finished leaving? What about our trained teachers? Or the thousands of agricultural graduates who could potentially help deal with our food supply deficits.

Furthermore, why are people leaving at all. No bill can stop people from getting out. Eventually, they will abadon medicine and go do whatever in the abroad if that's what they think is necessary for their survival. Even senior doctors are leaving same as senior executive staffs of various companies. So it's about the country being a mess and people looking out for their best interests, nothing ignoble about that.

This bill is repressive. It should not be defended under any guise. Sadly, medicine is one of the toughest places to work these days. This is an unnecessary distraction and heating up of the policy.

lamdbull:
Dbull on this one!!!



She left when she heard my new song😭

Misleading headline.
The punishment wasn't because she was Patience Jonathan. Armed robbery is a capital offence

Zonefree:
Stop patronising mediocrity. University in 21st century producing bread to generate funds is a big low. It's a university for crying out loud! They should go into inventories like Biogas waste management and collaborate with government if they truly want to generate funds. Producing ordinary bread that our dearest daughter Ahnie can produce inside her 2 by 2 kitchen is laughable.

Several Universities in Nigeria are making bread and water. Announcing it was probably 5heir only mistake

At baba Sunday Adewusi's burial that year, he had the flowers decorating his table removed. He wasn't satisfied with his orderly simply inspecting the container. He took it off the table and had it removed from the vicinity. I suppose living like that was harrowing

Even you, Omo-Ikirodah do not believe what you wrote up there.
At his age, he should have retired from active public service. It's not like he is the best guy out there...
The Senate is simply his plan for a retirement home.

NinjaXmetahuman:
perhaps name those roads, or may be giving security of the state to ex convict is what you are gonna call "crushing convicts"

Or the flyover he built with all the money he borrowed.

Abeg, I didn't say he didn't achieve in his own right, but he under achieved compared to his immidate predecessor.

And he uses propaganda to hype his little achievements.

I'm sure The amount he pays his media guys can build 5 flyovers on Oyo state 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Which predecessor? Ajimobi Abi?
Alawada ni yin sir

LegendHero:
I also want Makinde to win.

Even tho I have my reservation with regards to how he’s governing using propaganda of performance, but I believe he is a better alternative than the other candidates.

Oyo state need a governor that can think outside the box of paying salary alone as the yardstick for success. We need to open up the Oke Ogun axis and etc and utilize the agricultural potential in those places. Just sad that we are left with Makinde & Teslim.

Paying salary regular is the beginning of economic stability in many states of the country. His major road projects were towards 'opening up Okeogun'. Meanwhile, Aregbesola as governor of Osun is the definition of 'propaganda'

foxman04:
You missed on both sides mehn

Whoever still think his/her votes counts in a jungle like nigeria needs to be flogged with matchet

Mine counted.
My candidate of choice in the gubernatorial race is on course to victory.
And like Op said, vote counting and winning are different.
My vote counted and we are winning!

Again not tenable excuse. Haven't you had challenges before? Did you just give up? People didn't vote because they didn't realize what was at stake. Those of us that went to vote are also pained. But when there's life, there's hope.

The honest truth is this; without voters' overwhelming participation, elections would always be uncredible.

Wainey:
For me, I lost the interest to go out and vote not because Tinubu won.
No, he was the second candidate who I preferred after Atiku and I somehow believed he will win.

The election across the federation was full of tension, the rivalry was interesting and the results shows that oppositions fought well and Tinubu's victory wouldn't have made me lost interest but then it was Rivers state results that demoralized me.
Everyone here in Rivers State knows that the state is a battle ground for PDP and LP but that isn't what happened.
Infact if not for Rivers state results, the presidential election won't look like it was rigged and we would have had hope in our electoral system but Rivers state was just a hope killer.
Wike made it obvious that he rigged it just to pepper Atiku but what he did was to pepper a greater percentage of Nigerians.
I actually voted Sha after much persuasions from people.

What's this song of 'INEC disappointed before, so people are discouraged' that everyone is singing. Do you people just give up when you face troubles? After all, it's not everytime that the people's will are subverted.
Sad as it is, last election wasn't unexpected. Turnout was about thirty percent.

People are generally apathetic to electoral process. It is unfortunate and disappointing. Perhaps education and enlightenment will cause improvements in subsequent election.

But pls, let's not give excuses for those who didn't vote especially where there are no threats to their lives and properties. They didn't do well at all!

Headlines should be in keeping with the thoughts of a news item, that is what NBC should ensure.

I was surprised about the allegations because according to an earlier post on Nairaland, the picture Obi used was the correct one. It's not surprising no one came for the head of the Op or Vanguard Newspaper that was the supposed source of the news

Okealaaye:
That's the spirit. I've been living continuously in Ibadan since 1977, but Seyi Makinde takes the sweetest portion of the cake of failure in governance. Never seen a calamity like him before. Even non-natives like the military Governors of the past were much better. All na mouth even when he's as inarticulate as a toddler learning its first words - em em em! Come to Ibadan and see how the English first encountered the word Eyesore. Refuse and alms-beggars have taken over the main streets. That's beside the activities of street and in-traffic sellers o. And he cannot point to an enduring capital project he has executed, despite the claims of his yansh-lickers to the contrary! Makinde ranks in performance with his friend Ortom, the Disaster of Benue. Maybe a class Monitor in Primary 2, but no one would appoint Seyi Makinde Senior Boy in our school way back in the Primary School. It is like he's unable to bear on his slender neck the tonnage of load he has so unfortunately heaped on his head! By the grace of God, an end is coming to this wave of calamities in Oyo state next week.

We know your kind.
His handling of the Pandemic alone is enough for a re-election.
Ladoja is asking y'all to forgive Folarin the same way you were cajoled to forgive Buhari.

If the election is without disruption and there is good turnout, Makinde will get it. And by God's grace, the citizenry of Oyo will continue to enjoy peace and progress

This has to be the easiest interview question ever.

Unless you don't understand the position you applied for then it's a piece of cake.

Just answer the question if you can

So much for increased agroproduction. This administration is a joke
