It's a man world I nor go lie

Some men are extremely sensitive or jealous when they see women succeeding ..

Even if the women are sleeping around, what law are they breaking?
Is not the same men that are still sleeping around with them

No one is against it but they should be proud of their source of income. They are lying too much with the source.

Never heard of anything called kedu. Igbos and over hype. If valuation ain't from forbes we don't believe it.

But if they said they bought a Yoruba owned digital product for any amount when not mentioned on Forbes, u will believe, right?

I sincerely don't know why anything igbo hurts some of u.

Igbo is a market and yoruba is a market. I don't know anything about yoruba movies and doesn't mean that yoruba contents arent worth multi million.
And there may be yoruba digital contents that I have never heard of it and that doesn't make it less lucrative.

What some of u fail to understand is that there are three major nations in Nigeria that make up the country. And these nations are large enough to become a country on their own and full market. U may not have heard about the app service but it is there and serves the people it is targeting.

Jman06:
The reason why marriages among modern day Nigerian couples don't last is that we have not learnt to change with civilization. We want to still hold on to some archaic cultural mindsets about marriage while at the same time we also want to enjoy the benefits of modernization.

Simply put, we train our female children and empower them economically without training their minds to accept the fact that it won't be a taboo to make financial contributions in their homes nor marry a good man who is not financially well off.

Also, we fail to train the minds of our sons to accept the fact that things have to change as regards what was traditionally considered as roles of the two gender in marriages. So, our men want working class ladies who will at the same time be subservient to them and also do all the house chores even after exhausting herself at her work place. It won't work that way!

The above reasons contribute largely to why people don't derive satisfaction in their marriages beyond the few weeks of honeymoon when the love is still 'shacking' them.

In summary, let's learn to change our mindsets about what was initially considered gender roles prior to modernization and girl-child empowerment. That way, we'll derive satisfaction from our marriages.

But americans have embraced modernity and their marriages dey crash like quick cum

E no easy anywhere. Divorce rates in the uk and America sef high too much. Only the Asians and Arabs still have better marriage success rate. There is something wrong with the western marriage system then. Because is embracing western marriage system and she is experiencing massive divorce rate just like her western partners USA, UK.

Until this is done I will have no confidence in any electoral process. Nigeria has been sliding downwards over the last 30 years but to my surprise the clamour out there is for zoning based on religious and ethnic background. Nobody is addressing the real issues

It is unfortunate that we shy away from the real problems.

It is unfortunate that our leaders are not sincere about fixing our core issue.

tshtsh:
States should be more independent. Today most governors hide under the cover of FG to hide their underperformance

Yea.. It is either we run US model of true federalism or we run the UK 4 nations model. We can run 6 nations as regions in our case or use true federalism like the USA which grants more independence to states.

Actually, that of the USA works becus the states are even nations on their own. So regions will work more for us as we aren't as large as USA with many nations into one country.

vikiphy89:
So do u think the west fought with us during the war? Those cowards that joined hands with the north to fight us, we dont need them anyday anytime, the south south are ok by us. Since then till now do they have any relationship with the south south/east?

That is what I'm still saying, u can't win any war if u don't have the entire South United. Lol, we go lose again back to back

North has a lot of allies alone. Muslim countries, UK, USA, etc.

Fahdiga1:
A payback awaits the Fulanis after the regime of this lifeless cow. I wish the middle belt can have a security outfit in the mould of the gallant ESN not coward Amotekun that will chase out the terrorist Fulanis out of their region. waiting for the talkative lunatic Aisha Yesufu to condemn this despicable act and not blasting the ESN that is protecting their people.

Sincerely, do u really think south east can achieve anything without the unity of the entire south and middle belt? U better stop all these rubbish of insulting south west. The major reason we lost the last civil war was becus there was no unity among the southern regions. I am from the east and all these childish behavior from both easterners and westerners here is not making sense at all because to defeat North, u need the unity of the entire south and middle belt. North has serious backup from Niger republic. South east cant fight alone.

Coldie:
I hope this is not true.

Cause this is very bad.


Igbos learn to address issues insulting Buratai or anybody won't remove anything from him neither would it solve the problem.

If we address the issue we might be able to gather sympathy enuf to solve this problem.

What is right is right. Trump was insulted up and down by Americans, even popular ones, it didnt stop Trump from losing. Black Africans are something else. Always looking for respect for elders who didnt respect them selves. Respect is earned and not forced.

sapphiere:
Hmm men! Common 5k.
I don't blame him. He had just 200naira left in his acct. Jobless he-goat. His mates are out there hustling to better their lives and family while he's there using the stipend his parents gave him to mess around.

Well, this mindset right here is why our banks keep stealing little amount of money from Nigerians.

Fruad is fraud irrespective of the amount involved. I made a post like this before that if u as a lady had an agreement to visit a guy and u requested for money to facilitate the trip, if u fail to show up. The person can sue u. U took money without rendering your service. The best thing is to return the money.

Now, many ladies eat this way. They collect money from many guys each week with the promise to visit. At the end, she might have collected up to 30k that week in total. She will keep giving them excuses.

That is bad. Just that some people just overlook the money. I'm happy this guy didn't. Just the way our banks steal from us and we will be like it is small change. They do that to millions of customers and make millions. Naija is useless.

chatinent:
In Nigeria, it's lawful.




Clearly, it's because of the overwhelming power constituted on the chief executive.


We operate dictatorship in the guise of federalism.

Yes.. We run a useless stsyem of govt. It is actually a dictatorship.

Sadly, Buhari has done even worse and those to come after him we be learning badly from him. Nigeria is finished. The next president will be so terrible.

Tedpgrass:
Oga,

How does change of name equate to demonstration of love??

*****whistling off-- stirring up the pot!!! *****

.

How does doing wedding equate to love?


If u don't Wana see what I'm saying forget it.

If the man loves it, do it for him. He also went thru stress marrying u. Everything must not be stress free. There are some stress we must go through for the sake of who will love.

If I'm to choose, marriage list and all that stuff, I wouldn't want to do it. But for the sake of the woman we love, some men even end up doing wedding they don't desire.

Chii59:
What a juvenile attempt at shifting the goalpost. Rest!

The point is: nothing is too stressful to be done for who u love.

If men begin to look at the financial stress they encounter all in the name of marriage and wedding, they wouldnt be doing at all.

Brownpeanut:
It is not hectic for a rich man who knows what he wants.

Changing of name is not hectic for a lady who knows what she wants and loves her husband

Chii59:
Didn't you just read the write - up? In a fully functional digital system, once you decide to change your name, it should reflect on all your documents, BVN, NIN, everything!
Wheh you get married, I hope you're willing to help your wife with the tedious process financially and otherwise. Afterall na your name she wan carry

We also need to change our marriage traditional marriage system that put all the financial burden on men. In working society too, the financial burden is not on men alone

Brownpeanut:
It's a very hectic process.

How about the hectic processes involved in marrying a lady in Nigeria? Have we considered that one too?

drlaykay:
They have been misbehaving holding the protest as excuse.
It's just their usual laziness

Someone once sold a vehicle I asked him to repair at a ridiculous sum, then absconded. A friend saw the vehicle already registered by another person. He packed outside a bar.
I quickly went to the police to lay a complaint.
Instead of mobilising and follow me to the site, I was told to go and stand in front of the bar and watch the guy until he comes out then I should give them a call.
That was 2014 before endsars

No one is holy in Nigeria. Nigerians are the most difficult people to govern. With a useless police stricture that favours a particular tribe. Was at a police station two years ago, I couldn't believe how almost everyone in that spacial unit is from the north becus the oga was a northerner.

Nigerians are not ready to fix their country. To fix Nigeria, we need to go back to the foundation of her existence which is faulty. The foundation is fraudulent and anything built on fraudulent foundation can never work. We are all deceiving our selves.

Across the security units in Nigeria, we have embraced studied nepotism and tribalism. People who don't have the mental capacity to lead are the ones leading.

Nigeria is dead. And can never rise until we tell our selves the truth.

And many Nigerians are fraudulent no wonder many countries and institutions around the world add extra layers of sceurty check on Nigerians. Dubai is a recent example. Foolish country.

Egypt is a tourist country and u will see many tourist sites.

HigherEd:
It appears to me that the solution to our problem is restructuring. However, if this is not possible in the short term then southerners need to reorganize and better our politics.

Force the country into a two party system by spinning off a southern middle belt party (SMBP) or give it a less conspicuous name. This would represent everything the south wants within the federal system - peace, fiscal federalism, state police?, freedom of and of religion, free speech etc.

Almagamate the entire political structure of the South into one political party - the same way the south of US is a republican stronghold.


The north would be forced to spin off a political party to counter the south. But it won't mean much if we can get the kwara, kogi, plateau on board and get greater control on who the president would be and battle NASS to standstill until our agenda passes.

[/b]Until the three political zones down south can fuse into one strong political structure the northern oligarchy would keep playing tennis with our heads.

Brilliant idea. Bro, this is amazing. Can we all see how to make this possible? This can be done. I have been saying this.

Southern Nigeria is the one losing in this union and Nigeria has matured enough for her people to redesign what the British did. Even in the area of VAT, majority of this comes from southerners. Our money and sweat is what they use to sustain this country.

Our politicians don't care much because they also get paid from this wealth. U know an average black man is selfish. As long as it is good for him and his family, others can burn. He doesn't care.

What can we do as younger generation to unit southern Nigeria and push for proper restructuring in the future? I am very much interested in this. Southern Nigeria has the brain. Extremely brilliant young people. We can push this. In a normal setting, southern Nigeria should be ruling this country not the other way round.

Comedian2019:
Are they going to be showing EPL and UCL? If not, then it's not for me.

Better stay with dstv o. Becus they add EPL and champions league, it will be as expensive as dstv. Those leagues are so expensive to acquire.

Arewa1stSon:
Anything to maintain morality in the north is allowed!!

We have places that beers are sold in every city of North...

We are not trying to stop the sale of Alcohol in the north..

We are strictly regulating its consumption among Young people.

If it pains you... Go to hell!!
We only license few hotels to sell beer and even run brothel...

We all know wassup but will never openly support immorality!!

It's against our social standards!!

The north is waking up to human development...

We can't afford junkies on our streets!!

Time will come where everybody will be free to do drugs, alcohol, and olingo openly...

But we must attain some level of human development and exposure!!

Hope killing of cows in the north is not bad too? At least, we are regulating how the cows destroy the farmlands of our farmers in the south.

We keep loosing our talented and gifted citizens just because our hospitals always fail to do their job when you are a nobody or you are not among the ruling class ...RIP Dj Tunice

Health care in Nigeria is pathetic. And probably the worse in the world.

forgiveness:
Livability is different from development. I agree Windhoek is more livable than Lagos.

What is development? You guys are so funny in Nigeria. So, buildings alone make up development?

Many cities in Europe don't have giant buildings but are way more developed than anything u can find in Nigeria.

The cities u mentioned in Africa, majority of them have stable electricity, access to emergency services, well organized traffic system, access to health care facilities, water supply, organized police system, etc. These are development.

Pls, don't mention Rabat, Cairo, to your list. These ones have solved some of the problems Nigeria as a whole is battling with.

frankson1:
Are you trying to say the Governors can't develop or attract investments/investors to their respective states they govern?

Are you saying they can't build standard roads?
Are you saying they can't build low-budget houses for workers?
Are you saying they can't pay workers salaries and pensions on time?
Are you saying they can't put and end to lootings in their domain?
Are you saying they can't create jobs in their states?
Are you saying they can't invest massively in agriculture so there would be enough and cheap produce?

Do they need executive power to carry out the things I mentioned and many others?

They keep making you guys think Abuja is the problem. Believe me, if the Governors are responsible and provide good governance, things would be a lot better.

Yea, they cant becus we run a useless unitary system. U dont understand. Take away oil money and allow states to hustle. That is when they can hustle. Our system is useless..

And why cant FG build all those things you listed? FG has useless universities, FG cant build standard roads, FG cant attractive enough foreign investments. FG is richer than all the states put together, so why cant FG get it done? Everything that FG is handling is a chaos. States even build FG roads.

If u guys wants more competitive and viable states, grant states more powers and resource controls to manage their affairs. It is as simple as ABC

achicares:
Please, can you do me a favour?
Stop arguing with someone who understands nothing. You might as well be wasting your time on a kid who doesn't want to learn

lol, thank you jaree

osamz007:
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, ARE TRAFFIC OFFENDERS SHOT IN OTHER COUNTRIES.. let's be reasoning abeg

Nigerians hardly obey laws and are one of the most difficult people to manage. There is this busstop I know of, the place is congested, so bike people usually stay close there and make every where to look congested and lawless. This sometimes lead to crashes.

Police have calmly told the bike people and sellers to move away from that roundabout so as to create enough space to avoid crashes. They have spoken to them calmly, but they will not obey. I mean, these police traffic workers. U know they are usually calm and never armed. They citizens never, ever listened.

At some points, the govt brought in armed soldiers who came with brutal force to chase the people away. The place got cleared for some days. The soldiers left. After some days, the people returned to that place again. The place became a mess.

The govt brought in wicked police officers led by a lady. She wasnt armed but had her wood or so. She was brutal and rugged. She hit bikes, gallant and brutal. People obeyed and left. The place became calm again. But the police team have left. The place is messed up again.

The issue is: are we supposed to behave like this? Why cant we obey laws? Must we be forced to obey laws? Nigerians are extremely difficult to manage. That is why I do not always blame these security men when they get out of control.

Why are we this hard to manage?

thebosstrevor1:
Pack of lies.

Go and check ur exclusive and concurrent lists, u will understand why many people are clamoring

thebosstrevor1:
Pack of lies

Ordinary road and schools, your governor can't create. Simple park or sidewalk he can't create, or does he need the federal government to build parks and sidewalks

Your governor can as well just create state railways, state electricity just like what Lagos is doing.

Continue giving excuses to the thief sitting in the government house of your state

Hahahahhaaja, states can't create electricity.

U don't know what u are talking about. After creation, the electricity is sent to national grid and shared. It is waste of money. No state wants to do it that way.

State roads are still better than FG roads. Everything FG is managing is useless in Nigeria. From health care to roads, to electricity, to police, to security, to finance, etc. States even build FG roads and wait for FG to refund it. And states are not as rich as FG. FG is richer than all the states put together. Yet, states build FG roads and build their own roads, states even buy weapons for police which is under FG. Nigeria runs the most useless system of govt. No county runs this type of unitary system. Even Brazil has a better feserla system.
States and local govt are closer to the people, so they need to be allowed to be fully independent. FG is not close to the people. If I don't have electricity, I need to travel to national assembly to go and protest becus my state has no control.

Have ever wondered why no state in Nigeria is developed? They are all underdeveloped with dirty looking state capitals, beggars and poor health care system.

thebosstrevor1:
Packs of lies.

Ur governor has no control over the security, including police.

He has no control over electricity!

Your governor has no control over economic index that stimulate growths

He does not control railway
The list goes on. And these are core factors. Nigeria runs a unitary system of govt.

GallantDuke:
Is like you have comprehension problem

..


He does not understand logic.

My governor has no control over major things that cause development. Those things are controlled by FG. I can't blame my governor yet since he does not control those things.

I used to tell people that in Nigeria, our governors and local govt councilors are ceremonial in nature. They are just enjoying life becus they dont have real executive power. That is why most of them try so hard not to displease the central govt.
Even their own security details can be changed overnight. We run a useless system of govt.

favor914:
When you don’t have an argument it becomes bmc crew that helped Buhari defeat Jonathan & Atiku of Pdp? Useless ipob infant, your Igala Oga is enjoying winter in the United Kingdom, who has jumped bail, and left the mumus to face the heat in the East, talk of Mumurism? Disgusting.

But is it fair that govt is banning everyone who write against it? It doesn't make sense. It is unfair to treat ur citizens that way.

Many people are locked up for criticizing the govt. So bad.

Vardanes2:
Into how many countries will we divide.

This isn't 1960, even now, everyone wants to be strong and independent.

Plus, all this concentraiton on resuorces is why we are underdeveloped. You want splititng up because you think you will benefift from more oil money, which you will use to import. Thopse who oppose splitting up do so for the same reason.

As for me, Nigeria is the best option of all the bad options we have. And if we want to progress, we have to wake up to the fact that we are nopt rich, and that we have to work our way to riches.

Then we can split up however we want.

Everyone is blessed in their own way. Remove oil and let those who have it enjoy it. Those who dont have it will work with the ones they have. Some countries make billions from tourism alone. Some make billions from service managements. There are countless of resources across Nigeria. The current system encourages laziness and there is nothing we can do about it becus tribalims comes first.

And saying that tribalism should end is a waste of time becus even in the most developed continents and countries, racism has not ended. Humans will always be selfish and there is nothing u can do about that.

Europeans understood this and that was why they gave massive room for self determination.

It is also on record that Nations develop better than states. States are heterogenous while nations are homogeneous. The few states in Europe, what they did was run a system that grant the nations within these states great length of freedom to manage core issues such as police, resource control, airport, etc. Whites have sense. Na black man mumu pass for this life.

Na why the black countries remain extremely poor. And guess what? They will continue to be extremely poor and keep running to white man's countries. The same white men who had sense and organized a system that worked for them.

Vardanes2:
Nigeria parts ways into how many countries...?

Plus who gets the resources...?

Division=anarchy.

Resources found in your lands become yours, pls. Are u telling me that Africans cant resolve their identity issues just as Europeans did? Why are we so scared of changing a system that has not worked for us for decades, yet we are complaining.

If we continue with this system, in 50 years time, we will only get worse. Nigerian elites are already buying citizenship of many countries. They dont even believe in Nigeria.
