Foreign AffairsRe: Equatorial Guinea Suspends All Officials Involved In The Sex Scandal by phineas: 4:48pm On Nov 05, 2024
Common sense says majority of the videos would probably be AI, or they have a culture that accepts wives sharing, sleeping with 400 women and most married to high ranking officials on video... doesn't sound probable,

But then the gullible believe all things,critical thinkers would pause and wait to see where all this is going
PoliticsRe: Egusi (melon) Soup Is Owned By The Yorubas - Reno Omokri Proved(Pic) by phineas: 4:45pm On Nov 05, 2024
Sharpsharp00123:
u are talking rubbish

Egusi n okro is cooked in virtually all homes n who limited egusi n efo to ekiti?

So u don't know people cook egusi n efo n even add bitter leaf?

U are just talking rubbish with confidence
Flagship soup is the culturally celebrated food or soup for that tribe, it's the okoho for the tiv, eko or pap for the ogbomoso, amala for the oyo etc, doesn't change the fact that even northerners like amala, do you understand now?

tuoyoojo:
Just imagine
A doctor who has the opportunity to japa decides to stay and Is over stretched at work. She prescribes medication which the hospital doesn't have and the next thing, she is being assaulted

There is something about power in Nigeria and this overwhelming urge to oppress the people one is meant to serve.

Last time na snail chopper when wear person slap, now this
It's the drs fault for not japaing, that's the kind of abuse they should expect as part of the work when working on Nigeria public hospitals
Foreign AffairsRe: Sexual Scandal: Equatorial Guinea Government Restricts Whatsapp by phineas: 2:46pm On Nov 05, 2024
These should have been prevented by those arresting officials and people should be sacked for the leak

When one billionaire like that in Nigeria was been blackmailed by some 2 sisters with a video,our police seized their laptop and said they had many videos of prominent people on it, till today,none of it leaked.Thats professionalism and common sense

The women,their families and all involved are the victims in this matter,I hope it doesn't turn out to be AI generated truly at the end of the day,forensic experts should take a closer look
PoliticsRe: Egusi (melon) Soup Is Owned By The Yorubas - Reno Omokri Proved(Pic) by phineas: 2:41pm On Nov 05, 2024
Seunmsg1:
I have reasons to doubt your statement that my fellow Yorubas told you that; because no Yoruba in his right senses will ever say that. Maybe it was one of your comrades who love masquerading as Yoruba that told you that. It's not Egusi. It's Egunsi. The etymology of the word was rightly provided but your bruised ego would not allow you to learn.
I think she probably heard it as the flagship soup for different Yoruba tribes,it's one of the flagship soups for the ondo,ekiti,and osun axis,like ewedu and gbegiri combination is to the oyo
PoliticsRe: Egusi (melon) Soup Is Owned By The Yorubas - Reno Omokri Proved(Pic) by phineas: 2:39pm On Nov 05, 2024
This is quite interesting, and pointless.

Whoever likes egusi should eat it however they like.That said different Yoruba tribes historically prepared it differently, so it's strange to say it's not Yoruba food.


I think people need to understand the tribes of
the Yoruba people have a common language but have their unique cultural differences,from food,to clothes,to dance etc,so the fact that one knows about some Yorubas you met somewhere does not make it a finding that applies to all Yoruba tribes.e.g egusi and okro would not be one of the style for oyo,but has always been for yoruba in ondo town for ages

Egusi and efo for the ekiti. Egusi only for some other tribe etc. No one cap fits all.
PoliticsRe: FOREX: FG Gives 9 Month Grace To Those Keeping Dollars Outside Banking System by phineas: 4:08pm On Nov 04, 2024
Kobojunkie:
1. You buy the artificial scarcity argument claiming the scarcity is deliberate. To what end?

2. You also accept the report that says 90% of Nigerians are not banked. How come? People are obviously not banked because they do not trust Nigerian banks. And it isn't that the banks have done very much in the way of improving customer trust in them. Either, so why blame them for the problem? undecided
Not the unranked report , the circulating dollars in country report.

SmartyPants:
You don't seem to get the question I asked. Listen again... How do you demystify a scarce resource?

Do I take it that your argument is that Nigeria's total dollar supply exceeds its total dollar demand? That's obviously false. Market realities clearly show the opposite.
Then you don't know Nigeria, the higher proportion of dollar in Nigeria is not even in the official system, and majority of Nigerians access dollar needs through these unofficial sources. That's where the problem is,it's artificial scarcity due to individuals deliberately hoarding available dollars sometimes to make the dollar rate go high. There's data by the way that says up to 90 percent of dollar in Nigeria is not in the bank... Can't confirm the exact percentage but I recall it was ridiculous

SmartyPants:
How exactly does one go about demystifying access to a scarce resource?
Where do you buy dollars when you need it? That's the place to start... make it easy to get dollars.

Foreign remittances alone was more than our dollar demand in one quater in 2024
FashionRe: South Africans Launch Petition To Bar Chidimma Adetshina From Miss Universe by phineas: 12:40pm On Nov 01, 2024
We need a chidinma appreciation page.... and anthem, at this rate she has become the mascot for a united black Africa across borders, someone,anyone, or silverbird give us that page.
PoliticsRe: FOREX: FG Gives 9 Month Grace To Those Keeping Dollars Outside Banking System by phineas: 4:28am On Nov 01, 2024
Draconian policy here,this cannot be the way to go about this.

Think incentives,think high yielding dollar funds, think easy availability of dollars when wee need it, demystify access to the dollar in Nigeria and make things easy for people,that would be a good place to start.

A village somewhere in benue state found gold on their farms and a week later, armed bandits had taken over the village and everyone had to relocate in fear. There's a connection somewhere.

They don't have Sims easily available,that's another problem,wanted to patronize them for promoting local businesses their Sims were hard to find. This is so the know,would still like to add them to the Sim collection for internet providers

We need a song for chidinma for when she goes to miss universe,that song will hit a million views,someone should please produce it. A good song with lyrics like ,we will survive and thrive , we will lift the nations up kind of song for all immigrants everywhere.

Like that dare art alade song," na my life I dey live"...

Jobless nonentities with no future ambition will tell her to drop it. It's her time of glory,it's an honorable title,and yes she has earned it.

Can't think of a better candidate than her for this,she reps naija well in class, knowledge, her proud representation of her Nigerian heritage and poise.

She has also been writing memoirs recently so she has the team and skills as well.

Nonentity dundees should go back to their jobless nfa vibes and let the woman be

This is a win for the country,a big hit and not a miss.I can see her as the Nigerian brand ambassador, beauty, brains and class to represent Nigeria globally at that.

I hope they let her shine and speak up in that position,naija needs its
SportsRe: Libyan FA Threatens Legal Action Against Nigeria For AFCON Match Boycott by phineas: 8:51am On Oct 16, 2024
In summary they held our national team and officials against their will,denying them access to basic necessities they would require before their match.

That sounds like outright kidnap of Nigerias National team.. they (libya) should go to court,they are learners,Nigeria will floor them well

Nigeria should please not send civil servant lawyers but a competent legal team,this should be interesting,

Calitoscassius:
Right, what about the young man Mutallab a wealthy Naigeerian son who had a bomb on him and wanted to blow up people that year. He is in American prison now. Look it up on google.
And his father got a comendation from the american Goverment for reporting his own son ahead of the attack to the US goverment but they handles it with levity... whats your point again?

Libya deliberately endangered and maltreated our super eagles,

Libya was completely responsible for this gaffe it appears, and Nigeria as a Nation is entitled to her rage on this matter.

Yes, i am supporting them! Until Naigeeria fix their atitude and treatment towards their own citizens and corruptions, they shouldn't complain about any martreatments by foreigners.


I am not entirely Naigeerian but i am quite happy being identified or decribed as Naigeerian grin


Cheers! grin
Just keep quiet,

Never let a crises go to waste,

Nigeria has done the right thing by refusing to play, but that is not enough, a letter of apology from soneone high up would be good too, if not ,its time to black list them as a country till they have sense.

If they can do that to the super eagles,they are no friend of ours.

PoliticsRe: Ajuri Ngelale Did Not Resign Due To ‘vexatious Medical Situation’. He Was Fired by phineas: 9:13am On Sep 08, 2024
Resigned or asked to resign,either way he resigned, and was not fired,end of story

That said The author of this piece is very bitter, his write up tells us more about the authors dissatisfaction with his own life and self worth than it does about the ajuri. The author should continue to wallow in his own bitterness and self inflicted worthlessness while Ajuri has nowhere else to go but up!

Ajuri was above the usual spokerson in class, carriage ,analytical skills and other technical capacity and yes we noticed.I guess we are going back to the era of market women type spokespersons.If this was due to the kings men shenanigans,then Nigeria indeed did not deserve him

I no want talk before,but someone actually said this? Shame on you all, that guy (Ajuri) earned all of his stripes.

He has been the most technical and cerebral spokesperson Nigeria has ever had, guess its back to the era of beer parlor like retorts from spokespersons that are supposed to be adults.

Quite sad indeed.

Sepukku great job you are doing here,just remember to keep it civil even if they don't deserve it.

Plus we need a nairaland dedicated update post for when the voting starts,I have never voted in any of these TV shows but I'm eager to cast many votes for the chidinma togolose babe.

SA should Waka pass, and let the girl breathe. They should watch her rise on account of their hate,that would be very refreshing to see

As for the clown singing SA show organizers praise,it shows she has zero self awareness,and obviously not very smart.if she was she would have held back at this time
