It is no longer hotels. The money is now in shortlet. They really picked up during covid and are now the solution of choice for runs. More privacy.
You are right, they come well furnished and spacious too. I think they are more expensive than regular Hotels....

No be only Lagos dey Nigeria, you have the option of relocating and going to pay your taxes elsewhere too

You are telling someone born and bred in Lagos to relocate out of the state because he doesn't like the way it's run? shocked shocked

The intention of wrestling has never been hidden by the WWE: entertainment. This is why it is called WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment).

The only thing is, when we were young, some of us thought that wrestling was serious and real.

It wasn't just kids, even adults, and it wasn't just Nigeria, even in the USA, a lot of adults in the early years of WWE thought it was real, The Rock referenced this in his recent interview with Trevor Noah.

Lol. I will gladly go back. grin

You and I know that whatever played out in Lagos will play out everywhere in Nigeria. The only difference may be on how it is handled

But concerning the last elections, I still believe the Yorubas didn't handle it well.

When you have a larger number of foreigners trying to edge you off, you don't start playing tribalism. You simply keep them in check by staying at the top for them to select.

The Igbos are also in large numbers in the North, yet you don't see Northerners doing that. It is because they have learnt to put them in check.

How do Northerners put them in check?

They are not even more expensive IMO..and they also give you value for money. Give you more privacy too. You will get shortlets at 50 to 60k a day in high brow lekki areas.

that is why they made them change it to WWE so it could be clear

it used to be WWF

and yes people believed it, especially when we were growing up

people especially americans have a need for good vs evil escapism which is why wrestlers are caricatures.

i remember seeing people CRYING watching the whole macho man and his wife/manager drama

Happy birthday, man.

May the subsidy of favours never be removed from your life.
And if it ever is, may the all of the saved goodness in the universe be judiciously used to grow your fortunes.
May good health never be rigged from you.
Flawed as you are, may your FBI files never be released.

Have a corn-free day!

Fake in what way exactly? If you mean winners are picked before matches then yes but the actions and stunts these guys perform are real.

The cost of governance is just too high.

I am even mad that the Deputy governor of Ebonyi is running his office with 47 million. What the flying fck are they using 47 million for?

Then Abia Deputy is using 252 million.. Unto say Nestle and GSK dey produce their products inside?

Then LASG dey use 8 billion to upgrade website?

WTF is going on in this country?

Curse be the day anybody supported the removal of subsidy

I'm ready to partake in any Jihad for this.
I have always argued that Nigeria can confidently pay 100k minimum wage but people will always say Nigeria is broke. I refuse to accept that narrative. The cost of governance alone can go a long way not to talk of corruption in other sectors ranging from padding up contracts figures, ghost workers etc...

I will never understand people that enjoy movies that you know are 100% percent scripted down to the last letter but turn up their noses at wrestling just because winners are decided before matches.

The Northerners have this system of always positioning their people in the foreigners cycle, so that when there's a need to elect anybody, it is that northerner that the foreigners will always look up to, and not themselves..

How come you never hear of all these disrespect in other parts, except the West? These guys know how to place themselves at the top. They will appreciate you, respect you, but at the same time, guide you to those you can select to represent you.

Everybody wants to dominate, and that's a human nature, not an Igbo thing. Hausas and Yorubas fight here more than any other tribe. It is left for the hosts to coordinate how far foreigners can rise.

The problem with Lagos is that they let you grow and then when you get to a point you think you are ready to represent yourselves, they play tribal cards, give it any tag and try to bully you out of it.

Na only here that thing dey happen.

I still think it's the heartbreak that comes from realizing it wasn't real all along grin

Wrestling is an art form. There's a TikTok account I follow...can't remember the name now, the account provides details on the back story of fights, the work that goes into creating a wrestling star, the injuries these wrestlers face, and even times the art bleeds into their real life and vice versa...It makes you really appreciate the work that goes into wrestling.

Good wrestlers over sell moves. That's just the nature of the industry. There's a reason why Shawn Michael is revered in the industry.

Na only here that thing dey happen.

The truth is that in the North they are explicitly violent and any skirmish they will attack the foreigners. That will already tell you what you need to know about involving in their politics. Ordinary Danish cartoon, you don dey collect, Israel Palestine foreigners don dey collect, Miss world foreigners don dey collect. They never make you comfortable even if you are 5th generation in their land to nurse the idea of contesting

If you are already getting attacks from issues that had nothing to do with you or your stay there, will you now start thinking of governing in those lands?

In the West there is more tolerance that is why people get comfortable and start nursing the idea of contesting
That is why the mantra you hear is that "See the people who claim to be accommodating cannot let us contest and rule in their domain", Others don't care about claiming to be accommodating and they make that clear from day 1 and every other day
Many places in Nigeria the indigenes will always remind you of where you are from in your everyday life in not so subtle ways
