PoliticsRe: British-Nigerian Ochuko Ojiri Found Guilty Of Funding Hezbollah by passion007: 6:37am On May 11, 2025

How does selling his Art collection termed as financing terrorism?
Was there any direct link to him?
Has he ever attend or negotiate on their behalf?
For you to kill a dog, you need to give him a bad name. grin
Are you trying to be clever or what? That's why Nigeria is in the state that it is.
The man himself has admitted a guilty plea, so do you know more than him about what he has done?

So if this guy buys TomTom from my street corner grocery shop I should report it? The prisons will be filled in days then? I think Ojiri is just being made an example of.
Do you really think you know more than the terrorism sponsor who has already pled guilty to the charge??

Being clever doesn't cut it. He directly aided money to be laundered for terrorists. He has admitted he is guilty. That says a lot.

CelebritiesRe: VeryDarkMan Accuses Nedu Wazobia Of Being A Sexual Predator (Video) by passion007: 9:06am On Feb 12, 2025
HedgesTV:

Very dark man has gone Viral yet again and this time for exposing Nigerian comedian Nedu Wazobia.

Very dark man shared a testimony from an alleged victim of Nedu and promises to share more evidence if Nedu dares to deny his allegations.

Full video above.
So what is the issue here?

Nedu asked you to sleep with him. You said no and left.
He didn't r.ape or sexually assault you.

What is the issue in this boring story?

People just bring up sex and we are meant to be scandalised because it's still a taboo topic for us.

VDM on the other hand has admitted to giving other men hand jobs for money. He's Gay for Pay, which is worse. Ashewo man.

Again you're speaking jargon, she was still in front of the pharmacy, a competent police officer without bias would confirm her statement by interviewing the pharmacy clerk. It was easily verifiable and I repeat a white woman woluld not be treated in such a way, no way a white woman would leave that scene and be subjected to HOME INSPECTION......You can spew all the jargon you want but this was clearly a breach of proper police protocol!
Try freeing yourself sometimes, not everything is racism. How boring that you bring race into every discussion.

Did you miss my point about soft skills? I'm sure that went right over your head.

Communication is only 7% verbal...over 90% is nonverbal. You only know what was said, you have no clue of the context. Was she fidgety? Over defensive? Over explaining?
I'm sure you're not interested in that. All you want is to be a racism champion with 15 years in the UK as your credential.

Free yourself and actually enjoy the country you live in. Let racism be the last explanation for human behaviour, not the first one!

The victim might not be educated or wise enough to see the bigger picture, I've lived abroad for over 15 yeras now and have police officers and military personnel in my family, there are protocols to these things and this case is blatantly evident of poor protocol. Why would a white British woman refer to medications as drugs? White woman does not have to be British! We have many Americans living or visiting Britain, we have many non British Europeans who would call medication, drugs! Stop this baseless assumption!

Finally, unless the poster made it all up or sweetened it with some lamba, there was abundance of evidence to not treat her like a drug dealer or user! It is you that failed to see the sense in my analysis because as usual subtle bias is not often recognized until it causes actual damages!
You don't seem to understand police protocol very much. Mrs X rightly alerts police about a lady who is on the phone speaking loudly (our girl admits she was) about getting drugs and excited about getting these drugs to someone else. Mrs X thinks this is a drug deal with intent to supply and shares this with police. Police arrive and our girl admits she did indeed purchase drugs. Later on, she realises the miscommunication and wants to clarify things. Police therefore feel she may be changing her story and continue to conduct a search to be absolutely certain.
Unfortunately we sometimes lack soft skills that can help to deescalate these sort of situations.
The girl in question fully understands what went wrong which relates to miscommunication, has learnt the lesson and most importantly, shared the lesson with others.

That's all that is apparent from this story. You really have to make loads of assumptions to identify any (c)overt racism in this case.

That's a fallacy of of Appeal to Authority. The fact that you are Yoruba man does not mean you cannot make a mistake in speaking Yoruba language.
This is not the point.

CrimeRe: Nigerian Gets Arrested Abroad For Calling Medication "Drugs" by passion007:
abbey621:
That's bullshit and you know it! Proper police training would have had one of the officer confirm from the pharmacy what was bought! Let's play the scenario again and change the main character to a white woman, her explanation at the scene coupled with the fact that she's still in front of the pharmacy and can clearly show what she bought would have been ENOUGH to let her go!

Stop making excuses for racial profiling and bias, it's a cancer that has no room in the modern society!
Once you put race at the center of your thinking, you stop understanding basic gaffes.

Even the victim did not once mention racism. She simply shared what the issue was, which was miscommunication.
Once a police report is received on drug dealing, the police have to investigate until there's reasonable evidence to the contrary.

Your contrary argument about a white person makes no sense in this case. Why would a white British woman refer to medications as drugs?
It simply will never happen. Case closed.

Drella:
Keep in mind that other factors like age of the children , activities they engage in, and condition of the children also account for the amount to be paid.

I might be wrong on the number of children but I’ve definitely heard of a case where the father only had £800 at the end of every month from a well paying job after removing child support fees.
He had to move to an apartment of 8 people in a room. His story is on Nairaland.
If you're talking about the UK system, again you're completely wrong. Maximum child maintenance rate in the UK is 31% of the paying parents income for 3 or more children.
It's not even hidden knowledge, you can legally compute it yourself on gov.uk

It's not language misunderstanding. It's simply racism
Context is everything.
If you've ever lived in the UK, you'll know there's no racism in this.

Medications are what you get from the chemist.
Drugs are illicit substances.

Language is dependent on geography.
In the UK, being sick means vomiting.
In Nigeria being sick means feeling unwell.

The purpose of language is communication so when we move abroad, we learn the language of the new country, including any contextual cues and adapt to that new way of speaking, otherwise we may be misunderstood.
The girl has learned the lesson and is learning how to be British, which is about not taking oneself too seriously, and being able to laugh at one's mistakes smiley

Drella:
Ask questions when you don’t know something.

Only properties are required to be 50/50. Child support can be 70% depending on how many children you have.

A father of two on a salary of £3,500 in UK can be paying around £2700 per month in child support
Impossible.
Go to gov.uk to calculate child maintenance for 2 kids on an income of £3500. It can never be more than £1500 even if the paying parent has zero contact.
PoliticsRe: US-based Nigerian Doctor Kills Self Over $15,000 Child Support by passion007: 10:13am On Feb 02, 2025
Everyone is screaming $15k is too much. Keep in mind that the guy most likely earns more than $30k per month, because the court cannot ask you to pay more than half of your income as child support. It was his decision to take his own life rather than give half of his income to his children, but that decision was certainly not due to financial inability because he was well able to afford that.

Also it doesn't matter if you are not married. You will still pay child support.

Nigeria has done it before in 1983 when there were over 1 million undocumented Ghanaians in Nigeria, and over 1 million other Africans without legal right to reside in Nigeria. It's a common sense thing to do, not a hatchet job to take a hard stance on illegal immigration.

PoliticsRe: Dangote Refinery Sells Petrol At ₦‎960/Litre To Ships, ₦‎990 For Trucks by passion007: 10:39pm On Nov 03, 2024
Why is Dangote telling us the shipping rate. Which ships transport fuel within Nigeria?

So if marketers but at N990 per litre
Transport and logistics will probably cost N150/ litre
Then marketer profit N150 per litre

Assuming there are no middlemen, petrol will be available to Nigerians at almost N1300 per litre

Realistically, with middleman logistics and profits, petrol will be N1500/ litre

This country is completely finished!

Dangote is a con artist and I hope imports continue as there's zero benefit to Nigerians for having Dangote refinery

FoodRe: I bought this Crate Of Eggs From The Mall. I’m So Disappointed by passion007: 3:48pm On Oct 09, 2024
You are confusing best before date with expiry date

Best before date is the date until when the manufacturer can guarantee the product's freshness. After that date, it is still safe to eat but the manufacturer cant guarantee it will still be fresh.

Expiry means do not eat after that day because the product is expected to have gone bad.

Does the egg appear bad, smell bad, or watery? If not, its definitely safe to eat.

PoliticsRe: Enugu, The Pride Of The East. by passion007: 5:13pm On Sep 03, 2024
On the issue of nationality, what do people think of Chidimma Adetshina, born and raised in South Africa to a Nigerian father from Enugu and a Mozambican mother, but for complex reasons, is now not technically South African.

I'm presuming that by allowing her to participate in our beauty pageant she was de facto accepted to be Nigerian, but I would be interested in the actual law that supports this. By contrast, do children of Gambian nationals born in Nigeria gain Nigerian nationality at birth? And is this nationality by virtue of birth in Nigeria, having lived in Nigeria or strictly by having parents who are Nigerians?

Also, do Enugu people recognise her as Onye Enugwu having not been born here nor lived here nor speak the language? Do tribal affiliations overcome these other barriers?

Just trying to understand the law better.

PS Just to add this is not a shade, I genuinely feel sorry for her and wish her well, and can't imagine how it must hurt to be rejected by the country you were born in and lived in all your life.

T for thanks.
