Please tell me when You have ever heard that an american or european president goes For medical outside his country......i would like to know

don't waste your time time replying fools. That was why I ignored him. He is incapable of understanding anything. He thinks everybody is as stupiid as he is.

Hungry west African leaders will obey and still go there. Is it a crime for the France president to come to Africa for discussion? We have put ourselves in position where we can be treated anyhow. What do you expect when the president of the biggest economy in African goes abroad for even the smallest medical cases.

At least, he'd live with that unenviable tag of an ex-convict for the rest of his life.

there is no stigma in the exconvict tag here in Nigeria as it is in other countries. Nigerians easily forget and this is our major problem. We forget past crimes by politicians not realising that the person will still commit such crimes if given the opportunity.

Don't be surprised to find out that these "convicted criminals" are just somewhere relaxing. They are told to strictly keep off public eyes. This is Nigeria.

Assets are being seized from rich criminals who are politicians without being sent to jail while the poor criminals who are not politicians are languishing in jail, sometimes even without trial. This is Nigeria where top criminal public officers have immunity against jail.

Everyone dies eventually so I'm not really bothered how Nigerians react. I'm just concerned SARS is a consistent thorn in the flesh on all Nigerians.

It is true that everyone dies eventually but when people rejoice in the death of members of an organisation, not because they are gonna miss that person, but because they feel it is karma and the victim deserves even worse, that calls to question the nature of the deceased.

Just check how Nigerians react anytime a police officer or SARS dies. Some Nigerians celebrate while others express indifference. It isn't because Nigerians are wicked but as a result of one or two sad experience in the hands of these evil men. The govt has a lot of work to do in the police force to rebuild trust from the people. Most Nigerians view a Nigerian police force with distrust, even family members of police officers.

Even in the spirit world section of Nigeria, Spirits or Ghosts are still using power banks . Power problem all over Nigeria

On only 3 count charges, the defendants got 7 years sentences while on over 20 count charges, despite being found guilty of all of them, Uzor Kalu got 12 years. Our politicians keep getting lighter sentences while other Nigerians get heavier ones. There is a judiciary tailored to every class in Nigeria. One judiciary for the politicians and rich business men, while another judiciary for those not in the first class I mentioned.

Yes

Countries that have nuclear technology, experience and have already been operating nuclear power plants for years are shutting down their nuclear power plants. Germany has almost shut all down. Nigeria that doesn't is planning to go into it while ignoring the enormous reserves of solar energy, gas, hydropower, coal and many more that can easily be processed to generate power. Our leaders keeps making and boasting about big plans that they can't achieve while they won't do anything about those little plans that can make a difference in the lives of the people. Poor leadership keeps killing this country.

Lets imagine I am being paid $3000/mth here in Nigeria. After lessing my expenses, how many more months do I have to save before I can hire a private jet @ $3000-6000/hr? Which is basically a one way trip. What of the return trip and waiting time?

you may not need the private jet again for the return trip. Just a single experience is okay . Use a bus for the return trip . Vacation is something u plan for. You can even save for 2 years for a vacation. If u are earning $3000/month, saving $300 dollars a month for 2 years will more than meet the cost. It also depends on your priority. In advanced countries, people value their vacation more than anything but in Nigeria, people will prefer to invest such money on properties. Imagine what $10,000 can do in a building in Nigeria but they don't care about that in advanced countries as long as the vacation will make them happy.

Autojosh just exposed some of our celebrities and "acting bigmen group". We have seen from this post that u don't need to be a bigman to fly in a private jet. It is because our currency the naira is so poor that is why we see $3,000 dollars as very big. That should be a month's salary in some countries. May God bless us all to fulfil our dreams and desires.

That's a nice gesture considering the fact that with what I am seeing of DJ cuppy, she lacks good music talent. Associating with somebody like broda shaggi may impact some talents into her. Her songs are wacks.

They should also study the effect of such fart on humans . Such fart may not kill humans but will succeed in reducing the lifespan of humans to one bar

Una don start again. What is the purpose of this info, that I suspect to be false, that you are trying to force down our throat?. Please let's be reasonable for once.

Na wa oooo. This is a nollywood story happening in real life. I just have pity on only the girl. Growing up with an evil parent is a very bad predicament. From a young age, whatever such parent does will look right even when it is an abomination like this one. The first time may be assumed to be a mistake but happening a second time shows that they know and also accept what they are doing. They see nothing bad in this abomination.

Hope this new visa policy favours Nigerians.

Invest in travel business
https://www.nairaland.com/5570029/business-opportunity-traveling-website

how will a new visa policy favour Nigerians? Do Nigerians need "Nigerian visa"? Once you are a Nigerian with a geniune passport, u don't need a Nigerian visa. We need new visa agreements with reasonable and good countries that will guarantee free visa travels for Nigerians not this free visa to hungry countries like Chad, Benin, afghanistan, cameroun, Guinea, mali and others. We need free visa to Us, canada, Europe, Asia and Australia

Obj was very corrupt and never respected the rule of law. He massacred innocent people in Bayelsa and Benue states. He sold off all govt's properties to himself and his cronies. He had Dangote, Otedola and many others as his business fronts. He only gave license for private telecommunication birth in Nigeria and this was his only achievement. None of the MDG's were acheived in his time. He removed principle members of the legislature, judiciary and even his party as he wishes. He was only pretending to fight corruption. I will rate him 1/10. Yardua was flexible with the rule of law. He gave some freedom and such freedom allowed people like Oshiomhole to gain power in Edo state. He agreed that the process that brought him to power was flawed and promised to change it but his health failed him. He campaigned with seven points agenda and none was achieved. Nigerians were even advising him to focus on just only two instead of seven that he won't achieve. At the time he should have handed over power due to ill health he didn't. I will still rate him 3/10 due to his honesty and the way he started. He still remained the only leader who was honest enough to admit that election rigging brought him to power.. Gej is a very deceptive individual. Southern Nigerians have erroneous belief that Gej worked in the north but when you visit the north, you won't find the work. Corruption was consolidated in his time. The only achievement was that he promised to dualise the country from north to south thereby reducing travelling time. He was already on it despite the slow pace, before he was voted out. He also claimed to have achievements in agriculture which was false. Nigeria imports everything in his time. India was even bringing processed garri and canned egusi soup to Nigeria before people opposed it. He was a total pretensive failure. He only left because the system manipulated itself against him, not voluntarily as he always claims. I will rate him 1/10 . PMB promised alot but denied all the promises. Nigeria still imports petroleum products and exports crude oil. Refineries are still not working. Power still very poor. Education is still low standard. Election manipulation still on. Human rights are still being violated, Corruption fight is still very weak, security still very poor, infrastructure still poor. Few things I will give to him is the 2nd Niger bridge gradually taking shape, the infrasture he is building in the north, the border closure which is good if we do the right thing to encourage local production. Another plus for him is the rail transportation gradually taking shape. I will rate him 3/10.
But they are all very corrupt. If all our past and present presidents had achieved 40% of all their campaign promises, we won't be in this mess.

Anything that will weaken APC on a national level ahead of 2023 is perfect to me

unfortunately, APC will continue to grow stronger because most of the oppostion parties are filled with hungry, unprincipled, self-centred members. Ize-Iyamu who was the strongest contestant in the last guber election and a member of PDP is planning to decamp to the APC on the 13th of december. This will further kill the PDP in Edo state. Gej and his political family are now secret members of APC in Bayelsa. Same thing is happening across the country. At the end of the day, Nigeria will become a one party state unless APC self-destruct. It is easier for opposition parties to die or weaken in Nigeria than for the ruling party because there will always be food in the ruling party and that is what Nigerian politicians are after.

And u failed to add Dino . Any kogi celebrity list without Dino is trash.

I will be the first trillionaire in the hardest currencies

The Judiciary is so deep into corruption and that is exactly what the executive blackmails them with. They have lost their voice, independence, integrity and everything the judiciary stands for. Funny enough, it didn't start now, it is only getting worse. At least 95% of the members of the judiciary must be done away with and replaced with people of integrity before we can have a similitude of what a judiciary should be.

The sex toyshop senator himself . This man defines completely what an average Nigerian politician acts like when in power.

You are the one that needs to apologise. Sowore and most of us knew we had a clueless leader in Gej and we made attempt to change the status quo by voting PMB. We substituted a clueless leader for another one, we made a mistake, which we realised and didn't vote PMB the second time even though he found his way in, unlike u, who uptil now, hasn't realised that Gej is as bad as PMB. We didn't make a mistake by voting out Gej but we made a mistake by voting PMB. We won't stop voting until we vote in the right people to run the affairs of this country. We will make mistakes just like with PMB, but we won't let that discourage us.

who told u it doesn't have radio

check the specs yourself

Nice202:
who told u it doesn't have radio

check the specs and u will see that it doesn't have. I did before my comment.

I love radio more than anything. Any phone that has almost everything like this lenovo but still lacks radio is a capital NO. I can't be using data to download and also use data to play radio . Samsung also does the same rubbish. Why will a company fail to put radio in a phone?

A senate without Dino will be a senate that is very focused, without the usual drama, stand up comedy and distractions. The only thing that won't change is the business of the day, which is LEGISLOOTING.

Also add the police to the list. Sometimes you see very long traffic and wonder what caused it. When u finally get to the beginning, you will see a bunch of uniformed men mounting road blocks, boldly collecting their usual allowances from drivers. Some will even be checking for expired papers as if they were road safety officials. No matter how much u horn, they won't give a care about u.
