Politics / Re: Photo Of Former President Buhari In The UK by plaetton: 5:43pm On Sep 16
LordviccoDaGuru:


What have you achieve in Life so far?
I'm very sure that my definition of achievement is not the same with yours. I have lived up to my own goals and expectations as well as that of my community, and I continue to grow.

Buhari, on the other hand, both in his first and second missionless journeys into leadership, have proven to be a curse upon the nation.

He stole power with barrel of a gun once, and second by grand deceit, and yet , on both occasions he brought nothing but pestilence and desolation.

Stop Lying to him! His brother wasted his talent working for a business enterprise that paid him nothing for all his work and time, and when he needed help, all he got was a snake oil scam executed against him by the same man whom he had served for all that while. This couldn't happen to anyone but to a certified mugu. undecided

His brother lived and died a mugu building Adeboye's kingdom here on earth for free. And now, Adeboye would even charge for his body to be buried on the same property he invested his life in building up. Tell yourselves the truth so you will never repeat the mistakes of those before you. Shio! undecided
Best comment so far.

Abike should go and post her yoruba brothers pictures that were threatening to unalive Igbo children, the way she posted Amaka details. Imagine Amaka was not a citizen, she would have been deported and probably killed by the tribal bigot Abike Dabiri in Nigeria.

If true.
The so-called lawsuit is frivolous and won't see the light of day in a courtroom.
Abike, no matter her prejudices, was acting in the public interest.
Amaka's act of posting public threats in the category of hate crime, is a criminal offense under Canadian law.
The fact that she has been criminally charged is the best evidence that Abike was acting in the public interest.

Celebrities / Re: A Man Who Lasts Only 40 Minutes In Bed Is A Red Flag – Efia Odo by plaetton: 12:24pm On Sep 07
NaMyData:

Ghanaian actress and social media influencer, Efia Odo, has revealed some deal-breakers for her in potential romantic partners, as she reveals she cannot be with a man who only lasts 40 mins in bed.

In a recent podcast clip shared on her Instagram, Efia listed two key red flags.

She stated that she cannot tolerate a partner who can’t sustain intimacy for over an hour and a 30-year-old man still living with his parents.

According to the actress, she values independence and personal space.

She also added that in the past she used to be naïve enough to accept men who don’t own a car, but now, men who do not own a car are also red flags to her.

I know you're reading this Reno.

Now, I find it very very odd that you failed, even once to mention corruption in our political leadership and how holding corrupt ofgice holders accountable and stamping out corruption is the best and simplest solution to Nigeria's perennial fuel problem.

Nigeria's current fuel problems are 100% as a result of corruption. Corruption at the highest levels of power ,corruption in the petroleum ministry, corruption at the management of the refineries, mind boggling corruption at NNPC.
If there was no systemic and institutionalized corruption from Aso Rock to the Refineries and to the petrol stations, we would have no need to import fuel and no talk of fuel subsidies.

But just like the political jobber and hatchet man that you are, you are indirectly blaming the victims of corrupt governance for mess they are in.

As the devilReed spake.it occured to me that these days are similar to days when Isrral.was in Egypt.

The first 5 mild plagues affected all of Egypt but the last 5 hit only Egypt and Isreal was not affected.

So, i perceive more worse things are coming and this time it is only devils and atheists and sinners that would be destroyed..

And i pray every atheist and devil and their houses will be consumed by the plagues and destruction
Nigeria are the most god-worshipping people in the world.
Yet, plagues upon plagues, one after the other continually besiege Nigeria, with no single ray of light at the end of the tunnel.

So today, Christianity means children of Abraham while the Egyptians today are atheists.

Thus, i pray thee o Lord that the atheists we see today we shall see no more.

That let their be mournings in the houses of atheists whereas in the houses of Christians there are shouts of joys!

Let their be barreness in the houses of atheists whereas in the houses of Christians their shall giglings of babies.

Let the atheist never marry but let the christian be joyfully married.

Let the atheist sow a field and reap a desert whereas let the Christian sow a grain of wheat and he reaps a harvest of 30s and 60s and 100s wheat and corn.

Let the plagues enter the atheists.house whereas the christian dwelleth safely as thou didst do in Egypt.

This terrorist is the reason why.

Making the release of this terrorist one of their demands was ill-advised a a sad betrayal of the Nigerian people and the Nigerian nation.

Protests, by definition, is a Protests against something. It is when a mass of people organize to make a statement.
Therefore, once a protest has occurred, it is a success.

Only an idiot would say that a protest that already happened has failed.

What a sight to behold! A woman with an empty pot joining the protest in Ojota. This is what we call a grand show of desperation.

While some are genuinely hungry for change, others are merely hungry for attention. The empty pot is a perfect metaphor for the empty promises these protests bring.

Instead of uniting to build, we are busy parading our woes for the world to see. When will we learn that no amount of noise will fill those pots if the leaders remain deaf to our cries?
This is by far the stupidest post I have seen lately.
I'm not sure there is anything more genuine, more symbolic than a woman carrying an empty pot to protest hunger and frustration brought on by bad governance.
This woman and her symbolic courage will live forever in the anals of Nigeria n history. Mark my words.

If you are more concerned with global image, then you are living in an alternate reality.

The religious mind is too opaque to understand and and appreciate artistic expression.
The question is: why are peactioners of religion always so sensitive and nervous around art and artistic expression?
They are sensitive and nervous around philosophical questions and expression.
They are sensitive and nervous about scientific inquiries and expression of scientific knowledge.

Dele momodu graduated with a degree in Yoruba from the department of Linguistics and African Languages, Faculty of Arts, OAU.

Economics may indeed not be Bob Dee's forte.
That's a very very narrow understanding of what constitutes an education.
An education is not about bagging a degree this one discipline or another. And education is first and foremost about sharpening the mind for further learning and understanding. An educated person who bagged a degree in Yoruba should be able to digest and understand basic to mid-level economic issues, and he has much zeal , digest and understand complex matters of economics.
The human brain is elastic. A person, at any age, with enough zeal and practice , can become an expert in any field of endeavor .

Politics / Re: All Eyes On Igbo: Nigeria Seems Empty and Bereft of Ideas Without The Igbos by plaetton: 2:13pm On Jul 18
AlaafinOfOyo:
Why are you all interested in the Igbo joining or not joining the protest? As in a protest you people are planning as Nigerians of 250+ ethnic groups, the stance of one group—Igbo—is all you're concerned with.

Fulani, who have been cutting wide swats in tears and blood and have even seized the ethnic homeland of dozens of tribes after displacing some and installing themselves as rulers in others, are not your concern. What's even more interesting is that the same Fulani are spearheading the protest despite holding the country at ransom with banditry, kidnapping, and ethnic cleansing. The same Fulani are not your concern, but Igbo. As in, Igbo, who you all united as one man to fight and defeat in a war, are still your star player, which you cannot do without after 60 years. Why?

Why should Igbo be involved in a fight where two looters are having a misunderstanding over stolen loot? Umuigbo, you better open your eyes. Whether in the north or west, do not get involved. Why? Four men came and fought you in your house and beat you to a stupor. While you were unconscious, they started looting everything in and around your house. On the way with your loot, the two that initiated the fight settled the two that assisted them with 13%. Later, a fight broke out among the two big looters over the sharing formular for the remaining 87%. Should you get involved? 

The truth is that they're not yet ready to protest. Real protests are never planned or advertised. In fact, the 2020 so-called ENDSARS protest that they even printed banners and fliers is a joke. Ask the British what they learned about the Aba and Calabar women of 1929. They'll tell you what a real protest looks like. When Nigerians are truly hungry and tired of the mess the country has become, even the protest will have no organizer. Not a tribe or a class. In the meantime, bear in mind that if it is based on natural selection, you, as Onye Igbo, are a natural survivor. Simply face and protect your business. Say no to the protest, and let the dead bury their own dead.
I keep saying that Nigerians are probably the most stuupid people on the planet. And that's why they get the kind of leaders they deserve.
They are supposedly planning a protest, and long before the contemplated event, there are controversies, finger pointing, scapegoating,etc.
I can't stop laughing.
Like you pointed out, real groundshaking protests are usually spontaneous, and knows no ethnic or religious boundaries.

Igbophobia seems to be a chronic disease that has unfortunately been pushing this country backwards and backwards for many decades.

There is absolutely nothing new about what Dangote said.
Infact, I have been hearing this since I began to read newspapers in my pre-teen years.
A European expat said it few decades ago that Nigeria can be one of the best economies in the world if is run the same way you run a business: recruit the best brains, give them tasks and run an efficient service delivery system. It is that simple.
But not that simple in a place called Nigeria.
Here, the Corruption Industrial Complex would never allow anything to function efficiently in Nigeria.

Within just 3 months of the Buhari administration, I knew he was going to be an abysmal failure. And I made that prediction here on Nairaland.
The body language of any new governor or president in the first few months tells you what to expect over the coming years.

For instance, in this Tinubu Administration, he has done absolutely nothing about reducing the cost of governance. All the senior officials of the Senate and House of Assembly are either under active EFCC indictments or formerly convicted.
With overbloated and padded budgets , more and more borrowings, this government, unfortunately, is already failing.
