Mr. Lecturer, the question was very simple: What benefit do you derive from being resident in Nigeria? One sentence. Please spare us the irrelevant chest beating. The OP did not tell you he is broke.

darknetcom:
thats true..



your life is expensive because you always think abroad..

americans have alot of monthly costs too..

a good apartment can take up to 1500dollars monthly.
healthcare 500dollars monthly..
family,children wife another 500
transport 350
fun 300
food.....ohhh my...

You are probably not in Nigeria. As for me I got notification from MTN regarding the increase which they said was purely as directed by the NCC. So if NCC is quiet about it, common sense shows that you need no other evidence.

onomeasike:
Rubbish.Where is the memo or proof of evidence that NCC directed them to increase rates? This is what all these lazy copy and paste journalists or attention deficit disorder bloggers should investigate and provide for the public. In the frenzy of this rumour, NCC has remained mute yet the telcos kept quoting them without back up evidence.

SUPER WICKED.

How many of the guests were dressed corporately? You simply are super clueless on EFFECTIVE and INFLUENTIAL leadership.

GudluckIBB:
.......But I can't imagine Arnold Swazenigger, the governor of carlifonia dressed like this!
Dressing like this will chase away foreign investors.
Its a pity.

HtwoOw:
Society works when resources are shared evenly...

Grossly dependent babies WAIT and WAIL for resources to be shared "evenly".

But the mature, responsible and independent adults, think hard and work like maniacs to PRODUCE more than enough resources AGAINST ALL ODDS.

I'm sure you got the message. Now look for your mates.

HtwoOw:
Your father raised an idiot

Society works when resources are shared evenly not when some privileged assholes stock $2M cash at home


And just because you are grossly dependent doesn't make everybody grossly dependent son of a biatch, corruption loving bastris like you

You made my day.

Shiitposter:
Abeg make una sign my form for me. I want in.

A shame that you'd need prayers in order to be fair to some of those you swore to lead and protect.

The need for prayer for fairness is a huge indictment by itself.

Your FAIRNESS should be so real and common. It should be taken for granted by everyone. It should not be a priveledge, a miracle or a rocket science.

And who exactly told you that the protests and the litigations cannot go hand-in-hand? The way some of us talk here makes me wonder if we even know the era in which the world is.

dionma:
Size Iyamu should stop all these cosmetic surgery. He shd ventilate his grievances in court. No amount of protest can invalidate the election results. No showmanship is needed. Gather your evidence and present an ironclad case.

Awesome!

Didn't read the nonesense.

The first line of lie that said "Nigerians were the happiest people on earth before the advent of PDP" made it clear that the woman is dull and incoherent.

No wonder her conscience could be bought. A shame that old people (because of salaries) would dare to tell lies with reckless abandon and openly mislead the whole nation.

COOL

If you're truly following anything there, you'd have known that (Oshimole's constituency apart) edo folks are sick and tired of APC. Fact: many influential folks in the state remain faithful to pdp. Fact: the civil servants are owed, the market women and petty traders are over-levied with multiple taxation. Yet, the state is hugely indebted, yet infastructure is in massive decadence and development has been seriously declining. All APC does (like you) is to blame a govt. that left office since 8 years ago. Verdict: folks simply loath the Osho and what he represents.

Realhommie:
Agreed.

Though i'm not from Edo too but i follow proceedings there to an extent. And i can confidently tell you that the 8yrz of PDP had nothing to show, so if by all standards Osho has outperformed his Predecessor (Lucky Igbinedion), Y would the electorates/people of Edo wanna go back to the dark years?

That's may case, the states politics shouldn't be roped with what's happening at the center.

Ok, if governorship elections where to hold in Lagos state tomorrow, would you wish PDP to win or do you think they can win?

What makes their's credible? APC leading? INEC VERIFIED? Or are you just having a serial heart permutation because this one shows PDP is ahead? Sorry o.

bokohalal:
This thread should be closed. Premium Times has more credible results on their website and it is hugely at variance with what obtains here.

It's a lie. They will even fail in rigging it.

Martino240:
APC will win this election,

Dd anyone else notice the technical omission of the word "TERRORISM" in that BBC report? These peope and their biases though.

Forget the dude. Making pregnancy a precondition for marriage shows that he was not in love with you. No, he did not leave you because of the abortion. He left you because he pressumed that you won't translate into an efficient baby factory. Move on already please. Otherwise, except you're 50+, the fact that you stooped that low to accept the crap from him makes me speechless.

fullofregrets:
I am feeling so devastated right now , my fiance is leaving me , cause I open up to him , that I once had an abortion .
my fiance and I already meet with our parents , he asked of my hands in marriage, and I accepts , we have been to our parents house , but there's an issue in my side , my father don't was not really good with it , cause of cultural differences, but later agreed we can go ahead with it , so my fiance tells me I need to get pregnant , so that we will do the marriage , I agree to that , but it isn't forthcoming , so I started remembering my past , when I had an abortion , so I opened up to him cause of the love we and trust I shared with him , I have carried out possible best, I am okay but some hormonal challenges , after a month he text me , that he's no more interested in the relationship , i am full of regrets right now , I don't know what to do

You're super funny sir. So those judges who odered his release earlier were no judges, abi? Or they were fron Niger?

MrDavidson:
Why are his lawyers not allowing the case to proceed speedily so that he can be set free if he's innocent? They're only compounding his woes of staying in jail for a longer time when the trial has not even started. Do they think even if a South easterner is brought to hear the case he'll simply close his eyes and tell him he's innocent and have him discharged? That won't happen.

I'm not saying he would be convicted by all means, but I don't see him getting free. If Buhari could rebuff all entreaties to intervene in the case of the nation's Number Three citizen, what chance does Kanu stand?

popsonbj:
So, what you are saying is that because CBN is government's bank as well as
bankers bank it can give out loans without making efforts to recover same?
We need to be rational and logical when analysing issues.

Whose JOB is it to recover the loan? CBN or Soludo? If it's CBN's job, why then is the unlearned old man making a mess of his old age and little reputation?

You guys are just infinitely so iritating.

EPIC

Gosh. This is nailing it.

Amazing.

It's a big shame that you are still silly enough to peddle this hairy lie in 2016.

For your information the crap you've been pedling has nothing to do directlly (not even indirectly) with any geopolitical zone in Nigeria. On the contrary to your dumb assumptions the UN policy is targeted at all the developing countries of the world who are part of the UN.

But since I can bet your nose that you did not even read any of those stuff you peddle, here's a basic definition from Wikipedia:

South–South Cooperation is a term historically used by policymakers and academics to describe the exchange of resources, technology, and knowledge between developing countries, also known as countries of the global South.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/South–South_cooperation
***
South-south in the UN context therefore is just about emphasis on policy direction. It has nothing to do with geography, geopolitics or geographic structuring. This is just like when Rochas would say: Jobs Jobs Jobs or Industry, industry, industry. UN is just emphasising it's commitment to promote resource sharing and LINKAGES between developing countries which seem to be lumped up in the southern part (not the south-south) of the world

So quit spreading falsehood, little dumb head.

Ikwerreboy:
The word "South South" Does Not Exist Only in Nigeria As Claim By IPOB.
..............................................................
It is very common to see IPOB sympathisers trying to Blackmail we south south by saying the word "South-South" only exist in Nigeria as a way of dividing eastern region.

This is a big lie. The word south south as a way of grouping regions has existed in United nations as far back as 1978. It is united Nation recognised terminology.
......
In 1978, the United Nations established the Unit for South–South Cooperation to promote South–South trade and collaboration within its agencies.
......
Today South South in Nigeria have two states (Edo and Delta) from Old Western Region. I have never seen OPC/Yoruba people crying to high heaven how their land/ people are being taken from them. I am yet to see or hear the yoruba's saying the creation of south south region was a tactics to divide the old western region.

Below are organisations with the word "South south " to counter Nnamdi Kanu led IPOB claim that the word "south south" only exist in Nigeria.

1. United Nations Unit for South–South Cooperation
2. UNEP South–South Cooperation Exchange Mechanism
3. Shikha Jha and Peter McCawley, South-South Economic Linkages: An Overview , ADB Economics Working Paper Series, No 270, August 2011.

Just to name a few.

Don't mind the outburst joor, though the dude was so freaking annoying.

PigMeat:
lol, easy on the innocent pauper na.

Why should I expect you to understand what a CRIMINAL case is?

How can a 13 year kid comprehend what a CRIMINAL charge can do to one's reputation?

Can a baby really figure the injustice that's being done when a tyrant uses state aparatus to oppress and victimize the law abiding opposition?

My only prayer is that this little man would soon be picked up in his street and audaciously taken to court for a crime he knew nothing about.

May it be that his bail condition would be high and require that he'd remanded in prison for a season.

May be by then he would be able to make sense of what Cheif Ike Ekweremmadu just said.

Alphaoscar:
What exactly are these people ( Saraki/ Ike and their supporters) crying for



Is the court and the judiciary only meant for trying the poor members of the public ?

An allegation was raised against you by your fellow colleagues in the Senate and a petition was written to the Chief law officer of the federation, he decided to toe the path of law by asking you to come and defend yourselves in the court of law under the third arm of government and now they now started crying as if they are been taking to the hangman to be executed.



Saraki and his goons should just respect themselves and get some good lawyers to defend their case. simple.

Full blown madness.

Who spoke to you? Please get off my mention. Hypocrite.

wirinet:
So all these mud slinging is all about freeing Diezani, Dasuki and co from being prosecuted for massive looting of our yams.
That only one property valued at N120 million can be trace to General Buratai and his two wives is a big vindication of the general. Comparing that any other general in the Nigerian military, not to talk of service chief is like comparing a lagoon to the Atlantic ocean. we cannot even begin to compare Buratai net worth to Gen Ihejerika.

Corruption is really fighting back - dirty

[/s]

What else do you want him to say?

Was it not the same brainless partisan rascal who told Metuh that he could not go for treatment abroad because he belonged to PDP?

Dude that rascal has seriously abused the judicial power vested on him.

How can you say you sacked a duly elected governor from Abuja, without regard to the people that elected him, or the state assembly that represent them? That guy is sick. He should go and sack the president too for not having a basic certificate.

Cyph98:
Seriously?! You still find a way to blame APC for this

Did you say that when Diezeani (a royal Princes whose immediate and extended famies own a chain of highly susseccful business interests) was being humilated for owning some jeweries and a house in Abuja? Was her Abuja house hidden? What was your comment when the house was siezed by the bunch of leeches falsely called govt.? Or did you just get your sense now that your masters are justifying two Dubai mansions owned by a mere soldier?

mrvitalis:
If the property she owns are in her asset declaration form then this left for the EFCC and CCB to investigate the source of such wealth.... Hope u get the point

Then tomorrow you'd be the first to ask or wonder why people hate to hear the word: "One Nigeria". Hypocrites.

Quakertellicus1:
Ah well....appointing an ambassador from one's state does not provide jobs for the citizens of the state....or visas for that matter to any of the countries they are posted to.

In my opinion, the people of the 4 states missing out should focus on what their governors and LG chairmen are doing, rather than an ambassadorial position which helps no one.

My state has sent lots of ambassadors to XYZ....yet...I cannot see any benefit.
