What was the focus of 2024's budget?

Ekiti had one of the greatest GDR growth in 2024... all due to agriculture. Sit down there and remain pessimistic and shouting epinpawa o and drinking sniper instead of asking your own state governor to come and learn from him.

In an unusual twist, a young woman named Blessing, who went viral for seizing a man's mattress after he refused to pay for an all-night hookup, has received overwhelming support from well-meaning Nigerians.

Previous thread : https://www.nairaland.com/8222434/hookup-benue-lady-takes-mattress

Blessing, a mother of two from Benue State, captured attention when her story was shared widely on social media. The man she had spent the night with allegedly told her the next morning that he could not pay her. Instead, he offered her his home theater system or his mattress as compensation. By morning, he left with the home theater, and Blessing decided to take the mattress and sell it. This incident was captured by a neighbor, quickly spreading online and sparking mixed reactions from the public.

In an interview with humanitarian worker Ukan P Kurugh, Blessing revealed that her journey into sex work was driven by hardship. After her mother’s death and an early attempt by her father to marry her off, she ran away and eventually got married. However, her marriage did not last, and with two children to care for, she turned to the streets to make ends meet.

Blessing’s story took a positive turn when philanthropist Adoo Eugenia Ter highlighted her situation. In response, concerned Nigerians donated N500,000 and provided her with a new sewing machine to help her start a business and leave the streets behind. The donations are expected to offer her a fresh start, enabling her to support her children and regain stability.

What began as a moment of desperation has now transformed into an opportunity for Blessing to rebuild her life.

Here’s the new sewing machine she got from the 500k funds! She received.

Please where can I find those concerned Nigerians o? Five women don nack me this year dem no give me money. I no want the machine, I go just manage the 500k take hold body. Tans.

Ofunaofu:
I have taken a look at your profile; you are an old Nairaland member, and if I am not mistaken, you should be above forty or at least in your late thirties.So I believe you are a reasonable adult. 

What could make a full-grown man tied to luggage in the boot of a car if it's not his inability to pay the exorbitant transport fare caused by Tinubu's incessant increase in the pump price of petrol with its attendant scarcity?

Ok well done profile checker.

Ofunaofu:
This picture depicts the pitiable situation in which Tinubu's calamitous economic policies have reduced this country and its citizens into

All the problems of your own life is just Tinubu. Have you never seen Northerners travel to South inside same trailer as cows and goats? So how does this become a recent thing?

You mean to say " poor people's pie"?
In Nigeria vegetarian means I can't afford meat.
Born-again means I have no money to spend on alcohol.
Not that they are terrible situations though.
I am a born-again vegetarian.

batwiferat:
Is that what the son went to share in Maiduguri?

Tinubu as God lives and his spirit is alive you will not escape this hardship you plunge us into. Asiwaju is a very wicked and heartless president

The country has no more money and it is as if you are expecting the man to be feeding you and providing for you from his own pocket. You people , una well so?

DeLaRue:
How?

The Tinubus are super wealthy. And they were before Mr Tinubu became President.

In fact during the last election campaign, social media was awash with claims that the guy drives a lamborgini.

If that's true, the guy is probably worth billions. So who knows, N500m donation might not be too much for him personally.

It is even possible that he only informed his dad that he would be donating N500m and his papa said, 'oh that's kind of you, please extend my greetings to the people of Bornu.'

Probably nothing more than that.

The relationship some people have with N500m is the same as some have with N500,000, or N50,000.

That's life.

Or even N50 as the case of many criticizing him here

You must be living in an alternate universe if you think Kamala Harris is winning the next election.

In which universe are you living? certainly not in the one of realities. Here in the US Trump is quickly becoming one of the most hated person. If he wins it might be final proof that God does not exist and if He exists, He is not a good God

A Nigerian man visited a zoo in Canada and encountered something very surprising. Along the walkway, he came across a banner that read "Meet the Gorillas." The banner displayed the names of each gorilla alongside their photos. To his astonishment, many of the gorillas had Nigerian names, such as Ngozi and Nneka. Watch the video.....

Very befitting names

Psoul:
A toilet cleaner in White House, Queens Palace or where?

This your post smells like something written but an illiterate.
How can you compare a toilet cleaner to a bank manager no matter the location.

Do you realize that, the back manager can afford to send all his children to that country to school and live and also afford to buy property there?

Do you know he can afford visiting that country on holidays.
Do you know the job satisfaction he gets by attaining that position which your toilet cleaner cannot afford?

I don't want to go into details to fault this you mentality.
It is very absurd that you can come up with this quack and low mentality inferiority complex post.

No stress yourself o!
It is the same people who go up and down shouting Education na Scam!! to announce their low IQ and lack of ambition.

paxonel:
Yes,
I have gotten my figures right now

5kg garri(which is equivalent to half paint in Nigeria) is sold £7.99 in the uk which is equivalent to £8

And you say £1 is N2150

Calculate it
£2150 × 8 = N17,200

Meaning, a seller in the uk will accept N17,200 from you for half paint of garri that we buy N1500 here in Nigeria.

This is what a Nigerian toilet cleaner in uk is going through just to get garri that she is more adapted to, than any other food.

Make the op go rest o

Don't mind these people o. My company changed our health insurance provider, and I was for 2 months waiting to get registered with my new Personal Care Provider. During those two months one of my prescriptions ran out and I wasn't sure where to go since I didn't yet have a PCP. Urgent Care Center offered to write me a prescription for nearly $120. My old PCP eventually did for me cheaper for $95 and I felt grateful.
The same medicine would have cost me less than N1000 in Nigeria from any medicine store and without need for prescription. Compare this to nearly $150,000.

Before anyone can start saying nonsense here I must warn you that $120 is nearly 2 days salary for your toilet cleaner after tax deduction and assuming he even can get to do regular work because those jobs are usually temporary. Look, there are even people who have regular job but are homeless because they either can't afford to rent a room from what they have left after tax or nobody will rent to them because they are a credit risk, So they sleep wherever they can find and carry all their belonging around with them 24/7 . For your information these low demeaning jobs may eve be the hardest to find and keep because you will be working under a manager that will constantly disrespect you and treat you like a dog and when he becomes angry enough, he will instantly fire you. Yes the employment laws of America permit your boss to fire you whenever he likes and even without any reason,

2 pounds weight (about 1kg) or less than half of a slender yam tuber costs $4 at the Farmers market. So the entire slender tuber could cost around $10.Consider paying N15000 for one yam and you go ask yourself wetin you dey find for America as a toilet washer, assuming you even have a place of your own where you can cook anything.

Anyone who wants to go abroad to wash toilets is free to do so, it is at least a chance to learn new life lessons the hard way ..even assuming US Embassy will give you work permit to go wash toilets ...which is by itself impossible. So, stop dreaming.

Since they say Dangote's petrol is actually ethanol, I see some people begin to use it to make alcoholic drinks very soon to sell to other poor Nigerians for drinking. You know those people wey dey sabi do business ? ...

Emetex22:
I live in Bay area California and a Med Surgical Nurse, 😆 🤣 😂, I was an Industrial Chemist before emigrating to the US way back 😆 🤣, I am telling you, if you have struggled in Nigeria and see how the West run their system and don't get angry with ur politicians, then you are worse than a bandit. Even a herdsmen will turn new leaf if given a chance for a fresh start over here, move away mugu, California is not heaven and have homeless problems lol, but you can't even discriminate when they ask for services, ooh sorry you can't comprehend that mugu

Stop smoking weed. I know it is legal but you don't have to smoke that sh!t man. It's not good for you. Peace out ✌🏾

Emetex22:
I said it, nerve touchee 😆 🤣 😂, I have been on nairaland yen yen yen, I have lived in LA yen yen, I touched a nerve and it caused you to rant 😆 🤣 😂 😹, typical of people of your little mind. Atleast you see how the dogs are put under, do you know how criminals are treated while alive in Nigeria, if you truly live in GA as claimed and see how the system run, even though not perfect and still have the same mentality, then your education was a waste if you had any and I feel bad for your circles, sorry

I am beginning to enjoy this. So, you are no more a registered nurse living in a big mansion in California. You are now a criminal living in Nigeria and being badly treated.
Continue you hear!

otherway:
Balderdash.

You obviously think toilet cleaning abroad is on the same level with toilet cleaning in Nigeria.

Yes, you are at the bottom of the company pile. You will be despised by everyone...whichever country.

Emetex22:
Looks like i touched a nerve there, Pls keep far away, your kind will continue to vote incompetence over progress, don't quote me again if you can't stand facts, Nigeria needs help and it starts by accepting it before proferring solutions, yes, I said it, some stray dogs here have thousands of dollar tag when safely found and returned, how much does live cost in Nigeria

Shut up there! I have been long enough on Nairaland to know empty vessels make the most noise.
Which nerve you touch ?
I don't believe you live in US and I don't have to join issues with you.
Here in Georgia where I live, stray dogs go to dog shelter and are killed if nobody claims them after a certain period. I have lived in Los angeles and know that people are not just give "shelter" and follow up healthcare. They end up on Skid Row or become one of the thousands living in tents the streets. Same in most of the US cities. You don't live in US Bro...and your English grammar is atrocious.
Continue to fantasize from your face me I slap you in Dopemu. It will eventually catch up with you

Emetex22:
An illegal homeless in California, even a diseased stray dog has more dignity than the present state living conditions in Nigeria, atleast when they collapse on the street, someone takes responsibility of calling EMT for basic resuscitation, the get shelter upon discharge no questions asked and follow up care. In Nigeria, people are slaughtered like cows and communities move on as if it nothing happened. A cleaner don't have to buy a million dollar house like a Registered Nurse, there low income 2-3 bedroom houses, you seems to have a grudge with the West 😆 🤣 😂, probably a deporte or u been denied visa multiple times, kpele

Have a grudge with "the West" ??
Deported ??
An illegal homeless in California, even a diseased stray dog has more dignity than the present state living conditions in Nigeria

Now that I know the kind of person you are I will safely stay away from your posts. Carry on with your fantasies and watching American films.

Emetex22:
I am a Registered Nurse today here in California, we all started from the bottom, I knew Niaja parents here who owned homes and worked as cleaners, there is what we call minimum wage here and Federal Housing loans for low income earners. Travel and u will realize ur politicians are wicked and enjoys u being under, real talk no dream SMH

There you go : painting rosy pictures to entice fools to their doom. And what makes you think I live in Nigeria? A cleaner buying a house could have been possible 20 years ago in US but certainly not today. He or she is more likely to be homeless these days or sharing an apartment or even a room…especially in places like Los Angeles or wherever you live in California. And if you are lucky to get one, you will need to work 2 or 3 jobs, temping and Upshifting and doordashing, to be able to keep it . Anyway let those that are willing to be misled get their wish. I have more than once seen an obvious Nigerian on Skid Row and seen a blind and homeless Nigerian on the train in Atlanta . They all started off believing people like you…not knowing that what works for one person may not work for another.

Anyway nobody is ever going to get a work visa to work in US as a toilet cleaner so the ongoing discussion is only theoretical or can only work in places like California full of Nigerian living illegally in US.

Emetex22:
Is it not better to pay of your house in 35 years than to live like a pauper and have nothing to tell your kids 🤔 when u retire

Ogbeni what kind of house can you hope to buy on toilet cleaner salary? Who will lend you money and where will you find the downpayment? Dey dream. SMH

What is beautiful in this one that looks like James Brown brother smh

FreeStuffsNG:
He is not a serious man at all. He stood there and was doing Tunde Kelani instead of separating them immediately and getting witnesses. He has a sinister reason for filming so he deserves the sanction.

You are an illiterate. Didn't you read that he used CCTV camera? I am sure your wife will eventually cheat on you.

In the US, he is wearing nearly $100
