The age of social media has really benefitted these celebrities the most, ambassadorship deals everywhere, cashing out big on their fame.

But the real question is, how many people buy a product simply because a celebrity recommends it, I've never done such, I don't know about others. I buy what I want, don't know if a celebrity name is written over it.

The letter is badly written, what of if this was written by one unknown nincompoop elsewhere to instigate malicious activities among the people concerned.

Since the green airline came out, other airlines have been going about with strings of investments, is it to challenge the young Yoruba guy that tries to provide affordable air transport service to people?

The person that negotiated and bought the child of such an ugly Afonja woman is who I am against.
300k for the child of such ugliness? That is bad business.

Check the name of the woman very well, she is your sister with hairy chest and yam legs from the landlocked dot in a circle region. She definitely run away from poverty trying to look for escape route in the south west by getting married to a Yoruba's man. But her greed for money knowing that nyamiri can do anything for money makes her to sell her own daughters.

Stop ethnic-profiling crime if you don't want to be dressed down like this next time.

Nice, I hope they commissioned that of abeokuta too, this will help to interlink developments in lagos-ogun-oyo axis

I think Facebook should have been the one facing this trial with Nigerian government, Twitter is more open to the users, so people spend less money on it, but Facebook was built to make you spend your money on advertisements.

Joysticks:
I laughed when an op called this a simple sitting room.That is a confirmed leather sofa she is sitting on.

But considering the opulence and high taste of interior designs of today, someone like TB Joshua should be living in a palacious sitting room. Do you know TB Joshua donates money and assistance for the needy in the USA, his charitable programs cut across the entire world, I'm sure most of junior pastors under him have a better sitting room.

Lagos life is hard mehn.

Nice

More like getting married to a masquerade, which kind facial look be this?

This is ordinary grazing that Fulanis has always done. Now cos of all that is going on, ordinary cows feeding on a school with overgrown weeds all over, now in the reporting, cows are chasing people, in the comments, it’s hate, finger pointing, anger fight, kill, Buhari, North etc. A teacher, anyone can just shout and tell them to take their cattle away and that will settle it, or it can be reported and the Fulani can be fined if farmland was destroyed but now it’s a call for aggression on the Fulani and ofcourse there will be reprisals and on and on and on.

But you know that open grazing is banned in the entire south, so the Fulani's know what they are in to and they are ready to confront anybody that challenges their violation of the ban.

Seems to engagement of ESN by Nigerian army is giving these cattle herders boldness to come back?

OyigboUpdate:
Their oga is enjoying like hushpuppi with contributions in IPOB worldwide limited but here no one naira for them. Salary no. Compensation no. Food nko atleast make I chop before I die. No. They told them is when Biafra comes they'll build mansion for them. Just the same way boko haram is brainwashed

They are now being sent to heaven by Nigerian army to go and live in their mansion there, just like Boko Haram is being to meet their 32 virgins.

So people still dey do party thing upon what is going on Nigeria today?

So they don't even take care of these people, I thought there was a time the Benue governor wanted to hire some of them? I will implore igbos to find a better way to channel their agitation than this inhuman suffering of their youth.

Fulani's and gambari are the same

If there is any man the igbos hate after the Fulanis, it is awolowo, up till today, some of them think awolowo is the reason they lost the civil war, not their foolish slave master, ojukwu, who pushed his people into war unprepared. I'm even thinking this biafra thing they are agitating for is for them to revenge the civil war, because looking at things today, nobody needs a united Nigeria more than the igbos, they travel far across the country doing their businesses and sending money back home, that's the business model they are used to, they don't even stay in their so called biafra land. So dividing this country will cut them off from all the business privileges they enjoy in other regions, and this is the only area they are competitive.

We will see

Sincerely speaking, Twitter is losing some millions of dollars through this TwitterBan. Nigeria is the Twitter's largest market in Africa. We are using VPN to access Twitter but Twitter cannot earn any money from our visit, all the advertisements on TwitterNG are close. You know Americans don't joke with money.

We are not defending Lagos just for the sake of it. The last endears protests was clearly hijacked by the Igbo/ Ipobs (I know what I am saying) The events of 21st October 2020 in Lagos were carefully planned and executed. Right from the orchestrated "Lekki massacre" to the large scale razing of the city were well coordinated. Any wonder that the major actors were Igbo?.

The elite you refer to knows this very well but for the sake of national peace and cohesion has decided to let sleeping dog lie for now. Have you ever wondered why the south west governors clearly stated that "Lagos was attacked" during the riots? They have their facts. The co ordinated attacks which distorted the security architecture of the state (and the nation) resulted in looting and stealing on a magnitude that has never been experienced before in the state.

Be that as it may, do you now think an indigene of Lagos (or even a south westerner for that matter) would allow such to happen again?. I tell you my brother that it will never happen.

People hold protests all over the world but they are held for politically expedient and reasonable reasons. But the actors in Nigeria are organising protests out of anger and frustration of not being able to acquire state power because they are jot popular enough.

Do you think it is reasonable for instance to hold a protest and demand that "Buhari must go"? Is that politically correct? If you don't want him, why not wait for the next electoral circle? This is the exact reason well meaning Nigerians have distanced themselves from the proposed madness?

Anybody talking of revolution now is simply playing on the minds of gullible Nigerians.

Unlike this particular protest, EndSARS protest has a specific objective which is to end police brutality and a call to disband the police unit SARS. But I think the organizer(Sowore) of this june12protest is using it to promote his political ambition because when someone asked him in a Twitter space yesterday what are the objectives, he couldn't list one, he said until after the protest. Who goes into a protest without knowing what they are protesting for?

"Buhari must go" is a theme, not a realistic objective.

FFK just earns my respect and also Twitter follow with this complete dress-down he gave to that satanic, materialistic, agent of doom pastor called Okotie.

chrisvic007:
If you want to know who he is, go to ojota tomorrow. You will know that he is not alone.

If you are desirous of arson, go to your state of origin and burn whatever you find there. No Lagos indigene would support your activities, no matter his political view.

People like you think you care more about safeguarding Lagos than getting the government to deliver good governance. Elites have used this rhetoric to deceive you that protesters are after the destruction of Lagos. We all know what they are doing with the thugs they send to disrupt protesters. If you say we should defend Lagos at the expense of good governance, then you are only defending Lagos for the corrupt few leaders. And as long as people are discontented with their leaders, you're only postponing the mother of all protests which is revolution.

People have been planning a protest for weeks, but just less than 24 hours to the day, you came up with this infantile announcement that they should not protest, who the fvck are you?

TB Joshua, a man of people. It baffles me some people still have issue with this man even in his death, it shows no man can please the world. Everybody should adopt Buhari's style, because no matter what you've done for them, they will still say rubbish about you when you're gone. Just do what you know is right and forget about goring horses.

Nice, very useful

Rugaria:
Little weak republics with zero guarantee of prosperity like Singapore, Qatar, Norway, Denmark and Sweden? These countries standards of living are a thousand times bigger than that of Nigerias and yet their population can all fit into Western Nigeria if combined! Sometimes, you may need to tone down on your fake patriotism on this board, especially on Thursday mornings...

If the paradise your Biafra agitators promise you is real, you should have seen the sign beckoning on your hope right now, how is the South East region faring in terms of development compared to the rest of the country? Those countries you mentioned have picked up their development long before their separations from parent countries. But one thing you myopic biafrans failed to understand is that those smaller countries cannot fully stand on their own despite being well developed, Singapore for instance imports almost all its foods from Malaysia and the rest of Asia because agriculture is zero in the country. Sweden, Norway, Denmark are still under the umbrella of European Union. We saw what happened recently with Qatar when Saudi Arabia mounted serious economic blockade against the small nation and was able to rally other Arabs countries in the middle east behind it, except Iran. What happened? Qatar had to submit to the Saudi's demands to maintain some censorship in aljazera over some polical issues. What you people, biafrans especially, don't realize is that, you are not fully an independent nation if you are not able to produce most of the essential goods you need. Economic or trade war is a real threat to smaller countries. Nigeria is more self sufficient as a united country than being divided into separate nations like biafra, oduduwa or arewa. Why do you think the West are keen on breaking up China into Hong Kong, Taiwan, Uirguh, etc, because they know the smaller a country is the weaker they are?

Don't just let sentiments override your thinking on the current Nigerian situation, the North are still very useful in their agricultural contribution to the country. We just need to address what is causing the conflict between the farmers and the herders, then restructure the country into a true federal state. Nigeria should be thinking of expanding itself, not dividing within.

lagos was worse pre 1999. Tinubu, fashola ,ambode all did facelift to where lagos is now.
Oshodi, mushin, Alimosho, ayobo, ikroodu epe e.t.c were no go area pre 1999. Places in vi,osborne, ikoyi lekki e.t.c were not fully developed pre-1999.
Except you started living in lagos after 1999 you will never know how chaotic and underdevelop some places are in lagos.

Lagos developed just like any other states in the country are developing too, will you compare Abuja pre-1999 to Abuja now? By the way, Lagos is a commercial city that controls most of Nigerian ports and can raise its own revenues, what will they be doing with all those mammoth IGRs if they can't develop. In fact, the development pace in Lagos today is far lagging behind where it is supposed to be. The city is not well planned and organized as of yet. Rich people in Lagos are acquiring lands and building mansions instead of government taking control of housing scheme of the state. The development of Lagos should follow the template of the likes of New York and Hong Kong where high-rise buildings are used to cater to the housing and business needs of the rising population. We celebrate mediocrity too much in Africa, that is why the government has failed to live up to their responsibility.

Community Of justice, to justify the current situation of things in the country.

While people might castigate these two comments as being unhelpful on the topic, they are actually the most sensible comments on here. Ministries of Justice across Nigeria are full of crooks and scamming lawyers. You can't get real Justice in the ministry of justice because those lawyers work like typical Nigerian civil servants. In fact, they are just civil servants that use law to back up their corruption. I've been defrauded in the Ministry of justice Akure, Ondo State, thinking I was dealing with saints until the reality dawned on me before I took the matter to court. If people don't get this, think of someone like Malami, the AGF, who spearheads the Federal ministry of justice. Do you think you can get unbiased judgement from someone like that? He is doing the bidding of the executive rather that an independent Justice, because he was appointed by the president. In fact, I will not count Ministry of justice as part of Judiciary, they are just an executive branch of government.

The Best thing to do now is to Vote for Bola Ahmed Tinubu who midwifed all these developmental initiatives that States , Federal and Foreign Governments are copying.

So Tinubu built Lagos to where it is today right, so your father told you the Lagos development started during Tinubu?

I hope Nigerian youth know this that this is not a war that the government is waging against Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, it is against the very people who use these platforms most often: the youth. If they can successfully take down social media in Nigeria, they want to do anything possible to stiffle press freedom, and consequently put a peg on the ability of the youth to grow and challenge them.

As the age of social media and information technology is making people less dependent on the government and tapping from endless opportunities in these digital channels for their economic and social lives, Nigerian governments, being a despot they are, are becoming agitated by the prospect of this trend making them to lose control over the people they have surpressed for so long.

#June12Protest is a must.

When I hear the word barrister or level practitioner, I don't pity them, they are all crooks, all lawyers in this country.

Easier said than done, I even thought she had been kidnapped. When you spend just one day in the kidnappers den with mosquitos sucking your ass, you will know life is not all bed and roses as you see in government house.

This is more like a store of wealth rather that a wristwatch. He is not looking at as a clock but as an asset.
