Life is.....



Beans....!!..

Some posters here and Lot's wife have something in common...

Why am I in d same country with these fools?

Why must I suffer fuel scarcity with d rest of Nigeria when I have crude oil in my village and we can refine it?

Why am I being tagged with boko haram/suicide bombing when I don't have anything in common with those people?

In seun' s voice: Nigeria loves igbo & Niger delta indeed... To be suffering by force with Nigeria while they waste scarce money to buy weapons to fight some useless people and fund politicians extravagant lifestyles.....

Useless country

Oweniwe!, oweniwe!!, oweniwe!!! RELAX!

Lol...

My blood dey hot abi?

doctokwus:
How do u conduct a referendum in a región where a now turned militant group(IPOB) does not brook any opposition, does not tolerate divergent views and uses intimidation and violence to force people to either join their protests or have their bizs shut ?
I doubt If these people know what a referendum entails.
Its like going to sambissa forest and asking forced inhabitants there if they support BH or not.

Not that... It will be the opposite...

When it is time for referendum, it will be like Naija politicians defecting to a party that just won election...

The speed at which at which the "we don't want biafra" grumbling people will dump Nigeria to Join Biafra will amaze you...

And what make you think Biafra is just Igbo?... if given the choice, do you think Efik/Ibibio will choose Nigeria over Biafra?

I dey tell you... When referendum is granted... Nigeria is finished..!!..

The tribalism part is very annoying... Even people from the same village would balk at and fight each other when it comes to sharing politicians peanuts...

Nigeria is only one when it comes to sharing crude oil money... and when Nigeria wins something in sports... Every other thing, it is abokii, yiboo, ndi ofe mmanu...

They shamelessly justify injustice when the main antagonist is from their tribe... But if someone from another tribe does the same to them, they will scream blue murder... Like i remember when Abiola was in Detention... Shebi Abiola threatened that Nigeria will burn if he is not sworn in as president... Yoruba politicians suddenly turned activists and were hurling human rights missiles at Abacha... Now that Nnamdi Kanu is in detention, Yoruba don't care... infact, they want the man to die in DSS custody... If Buhari arrests obasanjo now, they will start their own "protests" too... But they don't care about Kanu because he is not yoruba...!!..

Police shot unarmed lady protester in Onitsha.. The VivianGist one... Some useless people on the forum justified it say she killed herself... what is she doing in the protests?..... Police shot a young man eating indomie Jeje in a canteen in Badagry, people protested his killing...

Now the question is... Police killed someone in onitsha and Badagry... what is d difference? Was the man in badagry protesting before police shot him too?... The Nonsense the people are doing is affecting everybody... fuel scarcity and epileptic power supply affects everybody in Nigeria... But if some people choose to protest... some other people will mock them as if they are not being affected by what others are protesting about too....

All these one Nigeria stuffs is just rubbish... everyone is first is first his village, LGA, State and tribe indegene before he/she is a Nigerian...

Pathetic...

eye4eye:
Why are they not nake.d? Protest unclad before we take you serious.

Pervert...!!..

Go watch porn as konji dey hold you so your head will clear

I love that fair lady in the front... very brave...!!...

Okanokan:
So that the world may PRAISE THEM

Who is looking for praise? All we are saying is... either restructure the Nigeria's system of government so that people will have more control over their resources so that they can use it to develop themselves instead of being tied down by some useless laws....

Look at the Nigerian system of government... A federal government... 37 (plus FCT) state governments... 774 local governments... God knows how many LGA councils.... Numerous Ministries and Parastals... Not to talk of Senate, House of Reps and 36 state house of assemblies....

After sharing oil revenues among all those tiers of government, what will be left to execute capital projects? ... How do you expect the country to develop with this system of government? The earlier we face the truth that Nigeria can never be a developed country the way it, the better for us...

Numerous national conferences have been organized but what came out of them? nothing.

Should people continue to wallow in under development when they have the resources to develop themselves?

I am from Delta state... why should i suffer fuel scarcity with the rest of Nigeria when i have oil in my backyard and we can refine it on our own? Why must petrol and kerosene sell for the same price throughout Nigeria? Is a Ram or beans sold for the same price in Kano and in lagos? They want to protect the poor... while other countries are striving to advance, improve the standard of living of their people, Nigeria is bent on keeping her people perpetually poor.

It is not about looking for praise... it is about facing the truth and admitting it... Not living this lie called "One Nigeria"...

If you are comfortable with one Nigeria, okay... But other people are not comfortable with it... If they want to go.. let them go... Britain gave Nigeria Independence without rancor or bloodshed... Nigeria should toe same path.

babyfaceafrica:
so make kanu die for these cause abi?...if he dies naw...you people will say the FG has killed him!!!...i no dey o.......innocent lives are lost now and you people are still happy....protest but do not impeded peoples movement,protest but do not burn shops,agitate but let piece reign...do it teh catalona way..referendum

Nobody want war nau... I don't know why people always equate Biafra to was...

Are you equating Nigeria with Spain? I said Nigeria politicians don't understand the meaning of "people protest"... I can remember in Kwale when people were protesting against fulani rape of their women and destruction of their farms... soldiers suddenly started shooting at people marching on peacefully

Do you think you know that even if people are rioting in spain, their police will not release one bullet into the air? During catalonia protests, roads were blocked too... But the Spanish police didn't release any shot....

I can remember Nigeria played a friendly match with catalonia... Nigeria supports Civil Activists and Secessionist movements in other countries... But in Nigeria, they don't want to hear Biafra... what an irony

babyfaceafrica:
so you think releasing the man will stop this?....after all the man said on radio?.....he will continue to lead protest........unless he promises not to continue hate speeches ,i doubt if the DSS will release him.....

I want you to understand that people have the right to talk and complain because if they don't talk, the government will continue to use anit-development laws like federal character, quota system to frustrate people...

Look at South Africa... Many people were killed during apartheid protests... Nelson mandela spent over 25 years in prison... didn't nelson mandela give "hate speech" against the SA govt then?... but now he is a hero everybody is looking up to...

If the South Africans didn't protest back then... they will still be under apartheid now...

If you are a christian... Jesus christ and the Apostles were warned by the Jewish authorities to stop preaching... they were killed... did they die for nothing? no... they died for you and me... cos without the sacrifices they made... even now, juju people are still sacrificing people for money rituals...

Even black Americans in the 60s and 70s had to protest massively before segregation laws were repealed...

So... those protests are not for selfish reasons or for fun... they are doing those things for a better tomorrow.

Why is this news? Isn't it normal thing for employers to salaries? did government paying a month's salary become a thing that everybody will be looking forward to?

Nigeria has degenerated to this point?

SMH

babyfaceafrica:
Disturbing public peace is violent...impeding people from passing Niger bridge is violent..burning shops is violent...RIP to the dead

RIP to the dead ... I was very sad yesterday about it...

But all these deaths and protests could have been prevented... They should at least, release the man and let the protests stop... abi?

Even a LGA Chairman is above the law.... He cannot be prosecuted or sumouned to court for anything because he has immunity....

Talkless of DSS...

In Nigeria, once you head an office, you are automatically above the laws of the organisation

babyfaceafrica:
both IPOB and FG are responsible for todays event!!!

How is IPOB responsible..? If you are arrested by police when you didn't steal or kill anyone and the three courts order your release buy the ploce still keep you detained... if your people turn to the streets to protest the continual disregard of court order, how is it their fault?

Or should your people sit down jeje, do nothing and look away because they don't want trouble?

Before you criticize a person or some people, try and visualize yourself in their shoes first before you judge them .... If TIV/Berom start agitating for Pateau republic because the FG has failed to do anything about decades of fulani militia killings, will you blame them?

Why can't the FG put Nnamdi Kanu under house arrest like they did Dasuki if they can't release him completely so that the protests will stop?

The only language Nigerian politicians understand is... "Force...!!.."... If you don't protest and agitate for something, they'll never do it... That is why i asked how many more lives will lagos-Expressway claim before they go and fix the road... It is not as if the FG doesn't have the money, resources or equipment to fix it... They have everything required to fix the road... but they have simply refused to fix it.... And if people don't protest for FG to fix the road, only God knows how many years and how many lives it will take before they wake up and fix it...

When he was threatening Hell and brimstone nobody cautioned him

Do you recall when SARS killed people extra-judicially and dumped their bodies in the in a river in amanbra? ... people are being killed anyhow like goats and and you want him to sit down and keep quiet?

In my village now, BEDC disconnected some communities over phoney claims that they owe 10m when it was actually the villagers that contributed money to buy they transformer, poles and cables.... for 2 years now, no light... People should not protest? should the people wait for 10 years before BEDC will restore power to the area or they want people to start rioting before they do something?

If your areais disconnected by PHCN for one year without reason... if the people in the area "threaten hell and brimestone".. will you blame them?

It is not a crime for Fani Kayode to threaten fire and brimestone over the kidnap of Olu Falae, but it is a crime for NNAmdi Kanu to protest the institutuionalized injustice being meted out on his people?

If the roads in your area goes very bad, people should not protest? you should continue to suffer bad roads in silence while your President's children are in dubai throwing parties with the same money they ought to use to rebuild your roads?

If people don't protest, politicians will carry their nonsense come into your house ... police and soldiers have been doing that on the roads already

Can you imagine how many people have died as a result of the bad state of the Benin-Ore road before Goodluck Jonathan fixed part of the road?..... Now we no longer hear any news of accidents on Benin-Ore road anymore.... Assuming the road had not been reconstructed, how many more people and properties would the road have destroyed? Lagos- Ibadan Expressway is still "eating" lives.... Instead of accelerating work on the road, they stopped all work... How many more people will die on that road before they fix it up?

Dangote trucks have been causing accidents that have killed over a thousand people... yet the government hasn't done anything about it.... How many more people are Dangote trucks going to kill before the government grounds the company's fleet and fine the company heavily like they did MTN?

Nigeria did nothing serious about Boko Haram until they started annexing whole Local Governments... Boko Haram bombed a procession of Sunni Moslems in Kano which resulted in the death of over 20 people... Nigeria just moved on as if nothing happened... Is the FG waiting for Sunni and Shite Moslems to start fighting as in Iraq before they wake up?

Fulani Militia has been killing people in the Middle belt, yet nothing has been done about it.

Why does Nigeria wait for thousands of its citizens to die horrible deaths first before the relevant authorities mobilize to stop the carnage?

These Biafran protests is a potential bomb that can kill thousands of people... The people are only asking for their leader to released ... The courts have ordered his release.... Yet the government is adamant on keeping him detained.... Some unharmed protesters have been shot dead my by the military... doesn't Nigeria know where to buy rubber bullets and tear gas to disperse the protesters? Why use live bullets on unharmed people who are simply demanding the release of their son? .... Now they have started burning mosques.... Is it until riots and retaliatory riots break out before and thousands of people are killed before the Government will release Nnamdi Kanu..??...

Or they want him to die in DSS custody and riots break out before they release him? How many people will die before they obey a simple court order...??...

Other countries take proactive measures to protect their citizens from danger... If one American, Russian or Isreali citizen is kidnapped anywhere in the world, they will mobilize special forces to rescue the citizen immediately... But in Nigerian and you are kidnapped by miscreants demanding ransom.... Even if you get killed in the process (France retaliated ISIS attack), be rest assured that your country will just move on as if you never existed.

Even a cow has more value than human life in Nigeria...

The next thing you go hear be rumors and the gists say you're into money ritual...!!...

if you want Nigerians to laugh, smile and praise you, surest way to go about it is to make them suffer and inflict every imaginable discomfort you can think of on them.
However, if you want Nigerians to abuse, you, ridicule you, call you silly and other local slangs like “maga”… try being kind to them, help or support them… all you’ll get in return is just insults…[color=#990000][/color] ........ this is sooo true. Eg the 1st paragraph is what buhari is doing right now . 2nd paragraph was GEJ

Lol... What about Foreign lovers who were scammed by their Nigerian partners?

They work hard to earn money to make their "Love" as comfortable as possible...

At the end of the day... after eating belleful, the Nigerian lover would run away ... some will even boldly tell their foreign partner that they've been scammed...

We don't only scam foreigners... we also scam our fellow citizens ...

abi what is the difference between a dubious phone vendor who stuffed a high end phone with fufu and sold it to an unsuspecting buyer and a political party that heaven on earth during elections, but after tasting power, plunged the country into economic mess?

The funny thing is that instead of condemning the scammer; Nigerians will parise him for being "smart" ... while serially blamming and rebuking the scammed for being "stoopid"...

What an irony ...

I was opportuned to go with some foreign expatriates to inspect an oil pipeline being built to move crude oil from Umutu to Okpai in Ukwani – Ndokwa West – Ndokwa East LGAs of Delta State. As we stopped along the Ogume road to assess the level of work done, a Delta Line bus staggered and swerved over a myriad of potholes and screeched to a halt beside our pickup. The Driver disembarked and walked around the weather beaten Toyota Hiace bus to check his overloaded tires. My expatriate friend curiously asked the Driver why he didn’t fix the bus before loading setting out from his park. Some passengers laughed at his question. I can never forget the driver’s response. He said… “Oga, I nor be the government o. Na government bus, make you ask government…” He got back into the bus, started it and drove on.

Truly, it wasn’t the driver’s fault that the bus was in that condition. Despite of being blessed with abundant crude oil deposit, the area is also yoked with the worst roads in Nigeria. Kwale, despite of being host to about five oil companies is no different from a village. Residents say they only have power supply for a few hours once in a month. At night, about seven gas flaring stations that dot the town would turn the whole sky red. Curiously, the people do not complain, protest, or demonstrate to make their discomfort known to the relevant authorities. They just go on with their daily lives as if 1 % power supply, gas flaring and bad roads are their normal ways of life.

During the former administration of Goodluck Jonathan, the Opposition APC regularly organized rallies and protest marches across the country for one phone reason (Bring Back Our Girls) or the other. When the price of Petrol was reduced, instead of jubilating, Nigerians abused the government. The rail sector was revived with diesel powered trains running around again after decades of inactivity. Instead of encouraging the government, Nigerians said the locomotives are outdated… the fare is too high… and so on…

Now that the APC is in power and there is fuel scarcity, nobody is protesting. The trains that used to run before no longer run again. I do see the trains hauling several containers at Ikeja Along in Lagos a few months back but one of the trending news right now is that of containers calling off articulated trucks. Nobody has done anything about the worrisome trend so far. There are reports of soldiers being killed in their hundreds by Boko Haram… instead of condemning the terrorists; Nigerians say their soldiers deserve to be killed because they harass hapless civilians. If policemen are brutally shot dead by bank robbers, Nigerians would condemn the police for not doing anything to foil the robbery, but most of them changed their facebook profile pictures to support France... you’ll wonder why they didn’t criticize the French police/military for failing to prevent the terror attack like they often criticize their police/soldiers…!!..

Nigerians are very weird people. A Biafran activitist, Nnamdi Kanu who hasn’t killed anybody is being detained by the government illegally despite of several court orders to release him. Rather than join their compatriots from the eastern region of the country to protest and press for his release, the people of in the western and northern region want the military to shoot un-armed protesters. My expatriate friend wondered why some governors would call a meeting to deliberate on the Biafran protests but they have never called a meeting on Boko Haram or to address the current fuel scarcity. He said he won’t be surprised if a Nigerian top politician orders his police escort to shoot at passersby and some people die as a result, nobody will protest ,the politician will serve out his tenure and still get re-elected again…!!..

He joked that if you want Nigerians to laugh, smile and praise you, surest way to go about it is to make them suffer and inflict every imaginable discomfort you can think of on them. However, if you want Nigerians to abuse, you, ridicule you, call you stupid and other local slangs like “maga”… try being kind to them, help or support them… all you’ll get in return is just insults…!!.. I couldn’t help, but agree with him…

Hello house just found out that 1 of my fish has a swollen stomach! And also we found a dead one yesterday but b4 we could bring it out its fellow fish ate it! Please what could be the possible cause for the swollen stomach?

i saw this on page 88

Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by ummulakram: 11:20am On Aug 14, 2014
Pls house I need ur help my fish r not eating well for almost 1wk now I av try giving them multi vitamins n even change there water every day but still they r not.And u notice one of them d stomach is big.

Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Belexy(m): 12:45pm On Aug 14, 2014

most likely more dan one has swollen stomach. Starve dem while u treat wt salt and NCO for abt 3 days

NCO is a combination of three antibiotics (Neomycin, Chloramphenicol and Oxytetracycline). Alternatively, you can use tetracycline (may be prepared as oxytetracycline) because it another broad spectrum antibiotic.



And i saw this online,,,

The fact that there is still nitrite in the tank worries me. Any trace of nitrites is toxic to fish, and water changes should be taken out frequently in order to keep them in check.

I do have a feeling that your fish may have fallen ill because the tank probably hasn't cycled properly yet; however, I know that nearly all Synodontis catfish (your Upside-down catfish included) can eat so much food to such a point where they appear to have swallowed a golf ball.

Don't feed the tank for a while (this will also help with the nitrites), and see if the swelling goes down. You may just find that he's eaten a little too much.

Sunday Adelaja... You are very stoopid

Because underdevelopment, marginaluzation, unemployment, fuel scarcity ... Etc .. Affects d whole Nigeria and not only the igbo, therefore, we must all continue to suffer together?

Just listen to yourself ... Does it make sense to you that the so called SS is suffering fuel scarcity with the rest of Nigeria even though they have crude oil in abundance? ... Its not fair... This is wickedness ...!!..

Because you have a car, your neighbo must trek too abi? Because all Nigerians are suffering, igbo must continue to suffer with them too? You are mad...!!..

And you need to go back to school because you are stil ignorant like you were in the 1980s... Who told you igbo are only native of the SE? You think Biafra cannot survive on its own because it has no resources? Let me repeat again that you are very stoopid.

Most people rather talk before reasoning, all the talk about reviving local refineries are yet to start fruiting and may never fruit. It keeps getting worse by the day.
Now he thinks becoming the minister of petroleum is the Way out, who should be held responsible?
The Senate should look into the matter, the problem is that He may not show up, you can see how the government is busy entangling itself.

This change better be worth it at the end of the day

Thank you sir...

What is so hard in maintaining a refinery that the whole Nigeria cannot do?

If you cannot maintain a refinery, give people license and oil block to encourage them build ... Afterall, all d People Babangida and Abacha gave oil block are only selling crude oil and eating the money....lai lai... They no gree

Give license to transport companies to import their wn trains and run rail services .... They no gree cos they prefer people die like chicken in road accidents while heavy duty trucks continue to wreck havoc...

Nigeria is bleeped up... All these change talk is 419
