Rubbish.

Asides the visuals, tell me any of Joe's song which outshines CAPital F.E.M.I's "Only One".

Ibime:
Which Joe abeg?

Joe Thomas aka "I don't wanna be a Player", "You dropped your dime", "Faded Pictures", "All the things your man won't do", "Why are all the Good girls"?

DissTroy:
There's only one Joe who does that kind of music. Joe Thomas.

Now tell me how this song by CAPital F.E.M.I - "Only One" - doesn't compare to songs on Joe Thomas' discography:

Ibime:
It's not about voice, it's about songwriting

Femi voice is like Joe , but there are a million guys in this world who sing better than Joe same way there are a thousand Nigerians with better voice than Femi

For the record I still listen to Joe. For solo acts, Joe is my 2nd most listened to behind Dave Hollister. Wanya Morris and Kevin Edmonds are my favourite vocalists but they sing in group setting.

Femi can only mimic Joe vocally, he can't pen songs anywhere near Joe. Get back to me when Femi can write something like this

When a rapper does what S.K.A.L.E.S did on Banky W's 2009 "Can't Stop Me".

Again, point to any other rapper asides M.I. Abaga who could better SKALES' flow in 2009 and keep it classy. Remember, there was the Knighthouse crew in 2009 too.

I'd wait.

Christians should be very watchful of their utterances against Pastor Ng’ang’a as what he did might've been commanded by Yahweh as he works in mysterious ways and his wisdom, as our perfect Holy Bible said, looks like foolishness unto man.

Yahweh once told the Israelites to kill all Midianites but keep young virgin girls as war booty. This sounds wrong to us but whatever Yahweh commands is wise even if it looks wrong in our limited knowledge he has his reasons

Yahweh figuratively destroyed Saul for not totally destroying the Amalekites

Yahweh once told Ezekiel to eat bread baked with human shiit

Same way Yahweh sent lying spirits to Ahab's prophets. This also sounds wrong to us but he has his reasons we aren't privy to and he answers to no one

Yahweh also hardened Pharaoh's heart while using that as opportunity to send more plagues and kill innocent people until all firstborn sons of the Egyptians are dead. This also sounds cruel but that's Yahweh showing us his loving power and nobody should question him

Yahweh struck Onan dead for refusing to cum into his brother's wife's vagina


Yahweh's ways are not our ways. its possible Yahweh instructed Pastor Ng’ang’a to slap that member in order to deliver him of the sleeping spirit that was disturbing him. Yahweh might have his reasons so we should not use our limited knowledge to judge what a man talking to a being of unlimited knowledge does. Beware not to bring a curse upon your lives and future generations by attacking a true man of Yahweh

Nigerian National Indicted for Role in Romance Scam and Money Laundering Scheme



BOSTON – A Nigerian national has been charged for his alleged role in allegedly stealing more than $2.5 million from six romance scam victims and transferring their money to cryptocurrency accounts that he controlled.

Charles Uchenna Nwadavid, 34, of Abuja, Nigeria, was arrested on April 7, 2025 after arriving on a flight from the United Kingdom to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. In January 2024, a federal grand jury in Boston indicted Nwadavid on charges of mail fraud and money laundering. Nwadavid appeared in federal court in Fort Worth, Texas on April 8, 2025 and was detained pending further proceedings. He will appear in federal court in Boston at a later date.

According to the charging documents, “romance scams” recruit victims through advertisements for online relationships on dating or social media websites. Individuals perpetuating romance scams create fictitious profiles and then use them to gain victims’ trust through a purported romantic relationship. Perpetrators then direct their victims to send money or to conduct financial transactions involving other victims’ money under false pretenses, such as an urgent need for money to secure a multi-million dollar inheritance or to pay for an unexpected hospitalization.

Between in or about 2016 and September 2019, Nwadavid allegedly participated in romance scams that tricked victims into sending money abroad. In an effort to conceal his role as the recipient of the victims’ funds, Nwadavid allegedly used a victim from Massachusetts (Victim 1) to receive funds from five other victims around the United States. Nwadavid then allegedly tricked Victim 1 in to passing her own and the other victims’ money to him through cryptocurrency transactions, and allegedly accessed accounts in Victim 1’s name from overseas, to transfer the victims’ funds to accounts he controlled at LocalBitcoins, an online cryptocurrency platform.

The mail fraud charge provides for a sentence of up to 20 years in prison, three years of supervised release, a fine of up to $250,000 or twice the loss to the victim, restitution and forfeiture. The money laundering charges provide for a sentence of up to 20 years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a fine of up to $500,000 or twice the value of the property involved in the laundering transactions, restitution and forfeiture. The defendant will also be subject to deportation upon completion of any sentence imposed. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes which govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.

United States Attorney Leah B. Foley and Jodi Cohen, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Boston Division made the announcement today. Assistant U.S. Attorney Mackenzie A. Queenin of the Criminal Division is prosecuting the case.

The details contained in the charging documents are allegations. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

Shoutout to Beorn, I'm currently enjoying Csat as an alternative to DSTV. Been using it for 3 weeks now; I hope it will be around for as long as possible cos I don't intend to go back to DSTV in the foreseeable future.

With 6k monthly sub I was able to watch all Champions league matches, something 19k DSTV monthly compact bouquet sub cannot get me sef.

BlueRayDick:
Thanks! I don too miss the show.

DissTroy:
You can keep enjoying your shitty music. But at intervals, whether on Nairaland, Facebook or X, I'd keep reminding that you prioritize noise over quality and artistes so gifted shouldn't be made to dumb down just to survive. In no world should Bez be relegated to the bottom of the attention rung. In no world should Johnny Drille or Praiz have to trade their special craft to please the crass in hopes of earning from their published art.

sageb:
So true, Bez was so underrated.
"Tonight" is My favourite song by Nonso Amadi. Where's is Nonso Amadi now?

Massive respect to you too for giving it a try. That shị̀t shows even France & Saudi Arabia leagues on Canal+ stations. What of me that's been using it since May last year. Just imagine the amount that stuff has saved for me in a year. I've saved over 180k on DStv Compact Plus subscription.

Before the discovery of Csat, I only sub my DStv for football and maybe music. Just paying huge sums for just two purposes on DStv.



My prayer is the stuff continue to go on, I need to recoup years of fleecing by DStv.

A Csat decoder which will be provider by the installer and a working internet connection. The internet connection is just for the decoder to connect, and it doesn't zap data like regular iPTV. U may not use 1gb data for a whole month. The internet is just to connect the decoder and that's it
