No need to mention about the allowances and special privileges she gathered while working for the president.
No need to add that your daughter did not protest for the entire five years she worked there, nor did she ever threaten to resign.
Just wail about 'salary' to our ears, we who have never been around the corridors of power.

Man U 2
Man City 1

Manchester Derby go favour red devils.

Keeping up with the Natashas...

Let's see what the other Natasha who now goes with 'Idibia' to her name comes up with.

That one no like to carry last too.

Interesting docu-series, the times...

What about countries with overall highest level of indebtedness across board...

Let's check something.

Extra revenue for the city of aquatic splendour!

Probably why the Iba LCDA chairman is working tirelessly to impress citizens enough, even finally working on our street road in Cele NICA, near Iyana Isashi.

Eko o ni baje!

Seriously, things are very topsy turvy in this world right now.

When I was younger, women wearing trousers was a no-no, if not an outright taboo.

Same with having babies outside wedlock. I believe they referred to such babies as bastards.

But nowadays, everything is being re-analyzed.

Men now braid their hair and wear nose-rings. Sorry Baba Fryo, Denge pose is now a general pandemic.

Women now smoke Loud and have children for different men. And even pose for maternity shoot while admiring the photographer.

Thieves are now being celebrated. Yahoo and Okuku ite or whatever that stupid ish is ...

Sometime, it seems like the world got on a bus, and left the few good ones like me behind.

I know one other Tunde Ayeni, and this is definitely not him, but another.

It's commendable. The Nigeria army should keep up with this renewed onslaught against terrorists and terror activities especially in the North. It will also serve as a discouraging factor to many youths in that region who see terrorism as a goldmine to explore for financial gains.
However, the real war should be against poverty. The elite so weaponized poverty that it has led to a hydra-head of consequences that seek to destabilize the entire country.
Corrupt politicians should be executed a la China way.

They ain't loyal, they never gonna be loyal bro.
I can relate.
Best you do the needful: chop and clean mouth, or forget about her totally and move on with your life. It's difficult, seeing as a bond is in there somewhere, still, remember that you were living life fine when you didn't know her from Eve.
Truth is she is still very young and only trying out her options. She never ready for that kind commitment wey you dey find. Tomorrow it will be another person, and you will just try to dive into the Bermuda triangle when you see her living life and having fun with someone better than you. There always are people better than you, believe me. And that's what she's on to, the ascent to the top of her fantasies.
Don't give water to someone who is not thirsty, they will never value it. A lady looking to settle down will appreciate you more than those who think the world revolves around their beauty.

Obviously. And it only gets better, or worse with time. Crypto is the future that the Nigerian youth is increasingly latching on to as a means to survive the harsh economic terrain that successive leadership in the country has relentlessly plunged us into, headfirst.

I say,

I was just scrolling through Nairaland on a lazy afternoon, when I saw a post which read: Top 5 most popular Meme Characters on Nairaland.

It felt odd.

I thought I had written something like that sometime in a forgotten attic of my memory.

I clicked and proceeded to read.

I had actually gone past the second meme, which seemed strangely outdated, yet similar, that I thought to look up the imposter poster, excuse the pun.

I was actually confused when I saw it was my post. And then I checked the date posted: Dec 18 2016.

Wait..

I went back to the home page and refreshed. It was right there, not in a section, but right there on front page.
I couldn't believe my eyes.

Like, this one is not 'first to comment' o bro!

Like Front Page. FP. Arriving in 2024 from 2016!

Like seeing a message in a bottle from the past.

Wow! Ladies and gentlemen, (and other emerging species in the light of wokeness) it's a dreamy feeling.

I felt quietly amused. I felt ...recognized.

But not like these people around me here at the restaurant, could give a fork to anyone to join them in eating the food they were presently complaining about how expensive it has become nowadays. In a harsher regime yet, than Buhari's, in which I made that post.

Not to talk of giving a KIA whether I just made front page on Nairaland, in a ridiculous feat worthy of a record certificate or medal.

So, like the proverbial agama lizard, I just dey hail myself for my mind, lol.

Yet, somehow, I also felt unmasked...

A few hours later, I revisited to read comments.

Your guess is as good as mine...

Thanks anyway, whoever. Sha push this one to FP before Jesus's Second Coming...

MY REACTION TO MAKING NAIRALAND FRONT PAGE AFTER 8 YEARS!

The furore continues ...

Eventually, Jagaban wants to streamline his revenue generating mechanism, but for who really in the long run?

All for the entrenchment of a political oligarchy that have sworn to rule forever!

The Nigerian Police force has always been led by people with questionable psychological and educational capabilities, that is why the institution has always lived beneath expectations. Also being a handbag to the elite has seriously compromised its policing duties. And the rich are only too happy to perpetuate this situation, leading to continued harassment and injustice on the majority of the citizens they are supposed to protect.

Incredible! The similarity in names is uncanny.
It's funny how the guy is also scamming the US judicial system by using a public defender, rather than spend a dime of his stashed fortunes.

Gandollar himself!

Emblematic of the totally corrupt Nigerian politician who has no clue what accountability nor responsibility, never mind dignity, entails.

On her third marriage with a divorcee. The man was so toxic his ex wife would have none of his presence at her recent birthday function.

Mercy Aigbe, like many other celebrities, suffer from an acute sense of insecurity, that they now marry for business reasons. And dumb Nigerians, especially ladies, will still take courtship and dating advice from such as these.

As it should be.

The woke virus, feminism and LGBTQ etc community are damaging the normal African traditional values.

Interesting times we live in ...

The only one that got me thinking is the plan to reverse child protection policy.

That's mean.

Samson Dauda: Nigeria's first Mr. Olympia Winner!

Samson Dauda's historic win as the first Nigerian to win the Mr. Olympia title solidified his place in bodybuilding history.

Although representing the UK, Samson's parents are originally Nigerian.

The Nigerian Nightmare's triumph not only brought immense pride to Nigeria but also inspired countless athletes across the globe.

Dauda's unwavering dedication and exceptional physique have made him a role model for aspiring bodybuilders.

Dauda's win is a realisation of the dreams of fellow Nigerian bodybuilders like Victor Richards in the 90's era, and recently his compatriot, Andrew Jacked, who finished 5th in this year's competition.

Derek Lunsford lost his bid to retain the title, finishing in 3rd place after Hadi Choopan, last two year's winner. The even took place in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Samson Dauda - Winner
Hadi Choopan
Derek Lunsford
Martins Fitzwaters
Andrew Jacked

With this win, Samson goes home with the 600 thousand dollars prize money.

Maori?

Nowhere near Djokovic, but cool anyway...

A situation where Igbo is smoked publicly by Road Transport Employees, while Police will drive past them, even acknowledging their marijuana influenced hailing and greetings to go into private residences to 'arrest' Indian hemp smokers.

Lol. You will still end up with the very useless and unproductive Naija men you so much detest. Start getting used to it.

Same thing with Youth Corps members, who have not seen any addition to their allawee...

Also, I wonder why federal government stopped the sale of rice to civil servants, even as the generality of the public have not seen a grain.

Lagos state government also stopped the popular sunday market.

This is a government?

What can you buy with 14 million Naira?

Well, at the rate of 7,500, you can buy 1866 bags of cement

Or five iPhone 15s

Or 18 Gold Invicta Watches prized at over 700,000 Naira



Either those or you can purchase ONE goat!

Yea, you heard that right!

One Golden Guernsey Goat, a very rare breed of goat and very valuable.

The Royal Golden Guernsey is an attractive animal that has grown in popularity recently as a useful household goat with it's pleasant temperament & a steady milk yield containing good nutritional qualities. Their reliability in food conversion & placid temperament make it an economical proposition as a family animal.

The Royal Golden Guernsey goat is distinguished by it's golden skin & hair which often takes a lighter look. It can be fairly long down the back and hind legs. In the breed standard, variation is allowed in the coat of golden colour, along with small white markings and on the head a blaze or star, but no Swiss markings are accepted, or pink/grey colouring. They are a fine boned animal with a straight or slightly dished facial line; the ears have a slight upturn at the tip & the neck is slender.

They are a fairly small goat, adult males weighing 190-200lbs and adult females from 120-130lbs and their conformation is neat & aesthetically pleasing. The origin of the Royal Golden Guernsey Goat is uncertain though they have been in the Island of Guernsey for many years. They were mentioned as long ago as 1826 in a Channel Island Guidebook, when the golden cow, goat and donkey were mentioned.



Registration first started in 1922 in The Guernsey Goat Society's general herd book.

Miss Miriam Milbourne of L'Ancresse, Guernsey, played a large part in reviving the breed in the 1930's and was encouraged by Dr Tracy, a British Goat Society judge. Miss Milbourne managed to retain her herd during the Occupation and on her death her animals passed into the care of a trust.

Many of Miriam Melbourne's hand written documents and records that she kept are on display in the Museum in Guernsey, they were kindly donated by her Great niece.

In 1965 a separate Golden Guernsey register was opened in the Guernsey Goat Society's Herd Book. The first successful imports to England were in 1967 and the inaugural meeting of the mainland club was in 1969. The BGS Golden Guernsey register was opened in 1971.

Royal Title.

King Charles III visited the Island of Guernsey on Tuesday 16th July 2024 and awarded the title Royal to be given to all registered Golden Guernsey Goats from that day forward throughout the world. The breed is now known as the "Royal Golden Guernsey Goat" an amazing honour as this was the first time that any form of livestock had received this.

You have still not been forgiven o, na play una dey.

By the time we are through with you, you people will vote Miss Jalingo!

Nigerians as a whole are crying foul, not just pensioners.

Na Play You Dey!

The problems of rainfed agriculture in Nigeria include situations such as these. Read about how this has affected agricultural productivity in the country here: https://thejunction.ng/at-the-mercy-of-the-sky-perils-of-rainfed-farming-in-nigeria/

To be roundly and soundly defeated eventually by the blonde haired billionaire owner of the Trump towers and enterprises. So much for the fantasy of a female president.

No thanks to the extra-judicial killings by uniformed men that decongest the prison population in Nigeria. Never mind that the real criminals are living free too, with allowances for clothing, entertainment and travel to boot.
