Raalsalghul:
Please can you post the link to what happened in Ekiti?

Been so busy and didn't follow that election.

Thank you.

Alluding to voters inducement. People sold their votes for 5k and below.

After being used by married men you see them saying my past is my past

I must dig that past o. I'm very liberal but Nigeria girls have scarred me, finding Love in Nigeria is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

'i want to be pampered and taken care off' 'princess treatment only' , if I'm conversing with a girl and she blurts out any of those words, I'll block her ass. I blame guys for enabling them.

tensazangetsu20:
Bros this 500k is too far. How many earn 100k sef. Outside Lagos you would be lucky to even see a job paying 50k. I think people go online on Instagram and think theres a secret clique of rich Nigerians hiding somewhere.

You saw what happened in Ekiti Yesterday, the overwhelming majority of Nigerians are Pooooooooooor, Its only on the internet that majority of Nigerians are Multi Millionaires and Billionaires.

I'm not doing badly, got talking with a new girl, she drives a nice car and looks high maintenance, had no intention of asking her out, next thing she told me that she likes money, so what do you want me to do with that info? Maybe if I was younger, I'd have kowtowed to her whims, but I don't give a Fûck, even if you're the most beautiful girl in the world, if you lack common sense, I'll stop rolling with you. They don't want to work, most of them are being bankrolled by Men, mostly married men. You see a girl that doesn't come from a rich family, driving expensive cars, using expensive gadgets and leaving in expensive apartments.

Many girls will die single in Nigeria. How many guys earn 500k-1M monthly in Nigeria?

cosmos2000:
Did you apply as host community or Merit... I wanted to apply as Host community but I don't know how to get my Letter of identification from my Chairman, not even Local Government... I was able to get only State of Origin Certificate from Liason office here in Lagos.
1)Please Did you write the exam. How is it like.... From Jamb pass questions or it's an Aptitude test.
Please answer me.

I applied under the host community section, you can go to your local government liaison office to get a letter of recommendation in your state of origin. The exam is GMAT themed organized by dragnet.

PDPGuy:
Who knows, the decision of the APC northern governors may be in furtherance of a secret pact to swing the election to Atiku. I say this cos it’s extremely rare for prominent northern politicians to willingly want to allow the south to hold the presidency.

If this happens, the country will implode..

Fairview1:
Fear not, two are better than one, for they have good rewards for their labour. That's not my handwriting, it's the Bible speaking.

We are talking about real life here. Is marriage in Nigeria a walk in the park?

TheGoodJoe:
There is a difference between people believing and another carrying out mass human development projects.

Wike did zero human development projects. Amaechi did lots. The difference is too much.

you're wrong, I'm in tech and I know what he has done in that sector, he's not a PR person so most of his accomplishment in human development are not on social media.

I don't know why the rivers state governor is being underestimated, I don't like him but he is a big threat, all his allies clinched the parties tickets in their respective states, even atiku is no match at this point. The Northern block are contemplating on fielding a consensus candidate.

TheGoodJoe:

At least Amaechi carried out lots of projects to improve the lives of Rivers people while Wike diverted the funds strictly for his personal gain. Big difference.

when you go out there, you'll meet people that believe wike improved their lives and amaechi neglected them. There's really no difference between them. They both mismanaged state funds and they are planning to continue stealing by installing their stooges.

TheGoodJoe:
There is a big difference between Wike and Amaechi. Amaechi went far in making lives easier for people in Rivers State. Wike had no idea for that. It was all about him siphoning State funds.

What difference does it make? Did he steal state funds? Did he use state funds to fund buhari's emergence? Did he sell state owned properties to his cronies at ridiculous prices? There are all the same..

Css is not really hard, it takes time but you'd definitely get the hang of it. When I started out, I read the css docs on MDN, made personal notes on it. If you have cash you can get the Udemy courses listed below on weekdays(discounts are applied)

Follow through with the projects in the course, plane landing pages and dashboards were built.

TheGoodJoe:
Can you tell me the nonsense he said because all I am seeing there is truth.

Did Wike employ Civil Servants? No.

Did Wike promote Civil Servants? No.

Did Wike improve the minimum wage? No.

Wike even kicked Civil Servants out of their accomodations in old GRA.

So tell me the nonsense he posted.

There's no difference between wike and amaechi, they are both fighting for their personal causes, the two candidates that emerged are stooges, if the other guy wins, in 2-3 years a particular section of the state will be dissatisfied by his governance and policies.
Social media and social gatherings will be awash with things he didn't do right. Don't waste your energy on those guys . Can you vouch for the new guy? Are you trying to say the new guy and his Godfather won't steal state funds if they win?

I'd love to start a business in the long run but for now I'm focused on working to earn..

Karnice600:
Nah. I didn't talk about ditching the money. I'm talking about the "drive". It could be money oriented or solution driven. Either way, you'll definitely get rich, but making a difference requires the latter.

I feel you but you need a safety net to serve as a buffer if it doesn't work out. The silicon valley guys you made reference to had options, even if their ventures failed, they had something to fall back on, you should read OUTLIERS by Malcolm Gladwell.

Karnice600:
That pay wouldn't fascinate you, if you are result oriented and given to solving problems around you for enhancement and easy living.
That differentiates consumers from producers.
Its high time Nigerian youths took up a course for who they are and what they require to effect a productive environment.., not running after naira bills at the expense of real value, for consumption. This is how our politicians think too. Ex governors wanna be senators for the money attached, not the values to be given.
This could be why we may never have a Silicon Valley in Nigeria, even if we may get to have the highest number of devs in the globe.
The reward that goes with result driven passion is wealth, not just "money". Wealth means your name can raise money for itself.
Come on guys, let's be different.., different from these political errors. Kill this Nigerian bug. It'll take us no where. Individually successful but collectively impoverished, cos everyone is consuming, none contributing.
I don't even know why I'm saying all of these.

I like your thought process but this is Nigeria, money is a big problem. You want people to ditch money for passion when they are unsure about their next meal or cash for rent ?

donjazet:
That's just one aspect of it, but you're correct, the fact that he's not been in the system for more than 10 years now is a key selling point.

Secondly, he is famed for being stingy, Peter obi had a lot of political problems because he was not the greasing of arms type. He fought against the likes of victor umeh them because they wanted access to Anambra state coffers and he refused. He refused to play the politics of godfatherism.

He was able to come back to Anambra governorship seat through the Catholic archdiocese, the states labor union and the civil service.
Anambra is deeply religious state and the priests and bishops are quite active in political issues. And he cajoled them by giving them back control of a lot of schools in the states. anyways, I digress.

Peter obi's famed frugality is what we desperately need right now.

Pros of a peter obi presidency;
1. Lowering the cost of governance. Be rest assured that all this news we used to hear about aso villa clinic taking 5 billion yearly will be a thing of the past. Excessive aides and offices will be made redundant.
2. Putting together a team of technocratic government. Peter obi's commissioner of health was a medical doctor, his commissioner of works was an engineer. His commissioner of education was a retired state principal. It's only irrelevant posts like women affairs and so that he used for political compensation and the likes. Key jobs are given to professionals in that field.

3. He will close those leaking taps. I'm sure corruption will be minimized because stopping corruption starts at the top. He has consistently said that politics made him even poorer.

4.He's a hands on person; unlike the skeleton at aso rock right now. He's not the delegate type that delegates everything. He's a workaholic. Him and wike are very similar here.

5. He's not a part of the current system. Nigeria needs revamping, not a continuation. We need a full about turn in the direction we're heading and Obi is that breath of fresh air.

I've made my case for him. The disadvantage of men like tinubu, wike, osinbajo, atiku is that they've all been part of the system. They continue to raid and loot our state and national treasuries, we need an end to that. If not Obi, hopefully someone new.

PrinceOfLagos:
It is only a fool that will expect Buhari to hand over APC ticket to Tinubu

Tinubu my foot

I don't have anything against tinubu but you're right, a strong man will never handover to another strong man, I took a cue from the rivers state primaries.

Unlimited22:
It's a bit difficult to believe that you live here chief, especially when you talk about insecurity and Wike.


Do you have any parent or family member who's retired from Rivers state Civil service since 2015?

Port Harcourt is relatively peaceful and nobody is perfect, even the peter obi that seems to be gen z's choice is not perfect, he has some skeletons in his cupboard.

Op read the thread below

https://www.nairaland.com/5144553/men-marriage-how-pick-wife

That's a lot of money. How much is Rivers state yearly budget?

barbstee:
Let's wait and see if seyi can deliver the whole of South West delegates for him.
Fayose owns Ekiti though

watch the video, fayose said they are going to the primaries with one voice. They are all behind the rivers state governor.

jom28gy:
the corruption free society, which every society sought after,Obi will guarantee that, because he is an epitome of anti-corruption, example_during his time as governor,as he left office,he left in the Purse of Anambra State,₦6b,he started the airport, Obiano completed,he initiated some of the policies upon which Obiano improve,he curtains excesses of government that lead to corruption,

I don't believe that he's not corrupt, he's just a smart crook, he doesn't steal brazenly like the other guys. Remember he sold $30M worth of his family shares to Anambra state, is that not conflict of interest? if you dig deep, you'll discover that the share price was overvalued.

$192M at the official rate, just imagine how much the other guys have stolen; governors, Ministers, senators, etc

Nigeria political space is a den of thieves.

incandescentena:
Its realy pathetic how bad it is.
I bought Electricity token of 100k since February, uptil now its still remaining because of lack of power. Early 2022 I spend 56k for diesel but after price hike, 126, 000 diesel in a month for a 200litre capacity tank here in Ikoyi Lagos(residential)

I have at least 18hrs light daily (4 days off for maintenance monthly). There are lots of bigwigs in ikoyi, surprised they don't enjoy uninterrupted power supply.

HeadNigga:
Give us prepaid meter them say no. Giving us estimated bills every month even without enjoying one second of electricity.

There is light in select places in Nigeria but hope you're ready to spend at least 70k a month on your light bill.

Sorry man.

tensazangetsu20:
The probability of them being killers or ritualist is much higher than being Phillip or Ngozi. To be Phillip the op needs to have a ton of money to send them to the best schools Nigeria has and probably and undergraduate degree at an ivy league school.

Mooh247:



I said it and I will say it again the two suspect are gone, condemned , dead and buried just as Deborah their victim... The video they made confessing their crime and also bragging about it finished them

If they Use Northern Nigeria Penal code they are getting hanged for murder

If they used Sharia court laws of Northern state,. They are getting beheaded

And if by any luck they get to use Southern Criminal code they are getting Life sentence


If only General Sani Abacha had succeeded in dealing with Emir Sanusi while he was an extremist back then and he got to face firing squad that would have been the biggest deterrence to Jungle Justice in Nigeria, but instead Sanusi killed and still became CBN governor and an Emir




.

Seems General sanni abacha wasn't an extreminist, can you recommend a book on his biography?

Heard from a reliable source two years ago, patience Jonathan said buhari promised to hand over to her husband..

Malori:
If GEJ is stupid enough let him fall for the evil antics of this satanic party APC

He is not stupid, wike gets the PDP ticket and he gets the APC ticket, a win win for him, I only pity those guys that conspired against him in 2015.
