If you knew your work you'd know Nigeria is not cursed, and you'd be promoting work we the people may do to uncurse Nigeria if it were cursed.

The capacity is after all in you and me and everyone else to fix our "small problems". Or don't you understand you are claiming Nigerians are cursed, and that includes you, despite your "drive good car, travel out, earn well abroad"?

Nigeria as a country is cursed, her citizens provide everything by them selves. That is how cursed nations behave.

One thing I learnt in life is
Women should NEVER be given power

In bible, it was a punishment to be ruled by a woman.
A society that gives women too much freedom
They will abuse it always.

Back then, a Queen can wake up feeling grumpy and once you greet her and she doesn't like your face. She will send you to be executed. Women abuse power.
They are not created to handle power.

Rape accusations happen because these girls know they will go Scott free.
No consequences because she is a girl..

That is too much power
That is why they abuse it and yse it to kill and tarnish people live
Just like the Queen, when women are given such power
A woman can wake up grumpy one day and decide to lay false rape accusations for attention. Because society will not punish her

Now I understand why Islam don't give women rights. They must have suffered terrible fate in the past and they vowed to chain women and never give them any right.
To prevent that mistake from happening again

What have men done with the power given to them in Nigeria ?
No light till date after over 60 years of men rule

ObiPandora:
Did pdp accomplish 1/10th of this in 16 years.

PDP built most of the roads u see today... dey play. APC has spent almost 16 years and have achieved nothing but pains, insecurity, and hardship, mindles c$rruption.

After almost 4 years, this is what these guys are bragging about? Shame no dey catch u guys?
Did u know that SA drastically improved her electrcity in under 2 years?
We too mumu here aswear, empty giat whose citizens sleep under heat every night.

Nigeria is such in a mess since APC took over. They are so focused on media propaganda.
How can U be sleeping under heat or buy gen and still drag the gen downstairs to pump water and still buy bottle water? And still struggle with network and still pay over 30 percent of total tax while the ruling politicians live large, enjoy and have their life style funded by us? Nigeria will drain u. Run if U can. It is a pathetic and cursed nation.
Rest in peace

Nigeria is not cursed. It is the thinking of the hopeless and incapable that are actually cursed. And sadly, such people want others to buy into their hopelessness and become useless like they are. The smart and intelligent ain't buying.

Everyone knows one's environment or situation does not improve all by itself but by the action of those who want things to change and are willing to work for it.

Hahahaa, Baba, I'm not poor. I live well, drive good car, travel out. Did U get it? I earn well abroad. So, think well.
Nigeria is cursed for lacking the capacity to fix her smallest problems. It is a cursed nation because it is already a disaster. As I speak now, no electricity in a major state capital. My neighbor and my gen are on as we speak. Is that life ? Make U dey there dey write rubbish. Money I spend on fueling na people yearly salary sef. So, U see, the country is fucking cursed.
In 2026, I had to on gen to get electricity, inside that, I still need to battle with poor network for my work, even though I use a WiFi service. Shame no dey catch Una for this country ?
It is a cursed nation because even many countries poorer in natural resources have these basic things for her citizens.
Nigeria is cursed for having useless people as leaders.
Over 95 percent of Nigerians sleep under heat every night. That is a cursed nation. Infact, the life styles U live here, if Dutch citizen should live it for 5 days, he will run mad immediately.
This one na life ?
I go suffer bring my gen down from upstairs to pump water almost every three days. I go suffer take it upstairs. I will still buy bottle water to drink.
And Ur useless govt takes all kinds of taxes from me. Is that not a cursed nation ? See this one talking about smart people
If U know my work, U wont even mention that smartness near me because U can't even dare do it if U are half smart.

Well you are right...


But I think hope is what makes life meaningful though!

Bro, the hope u have is the hope of life. Nigeria has no hope, it will eventually collapse beyond disaster.
With the rapid growing population and extreme hardsship, it may head towards Somalia path. Practically, on a daily, people are being massively kidnapped.
Let me give u a crazy scenario bro. Did u know that a relative of mine, a teacher with police education department, for them to write promotion exams, they had to travel to Abuja. Like for what? Like u kow how deadly the roads are, how bad the roads are, how kidnappers are using Nigerians to do bread and butter, yet, u get mind ask people mama and papa to enter road to Abuja or take flight to Abuja for promotion exams. Like, why do we love to make things hard for our selves? Who are these old men and women who have refused to embrace development? Now, a vehicle coming from Enugu for this same exam had terrible accident along Lokoja road. Gush! Why cant they just write the exams in their place of residence? Like why travel to far places for this? Why cant we embrace digital life? Must we center everything in Abuja?
Guy, i dislike the older generation. I so dislike these beasts. They bleeped up my generation and wasted us. I will never forgive them for their crimes against my generation. They ruined this country!

Nigeria is a frustrating country...

The unfortunate thing is many Nigerians have become used to their situation and now see it as normal.


It's like a slave that has fallen in love with his shackles.


Many Nigerians don't know what normal even is as they have lived abnormally all their lives.


Even the barest minimum basic amenities taken for granted in other countries are luxury in Nigeria.


It's a pity. I hope things change for the better!

No need to remain hopeful. Nothing will get better. The country is part of the wonders of earth. It will get worse. I mean, it is already finished. No one can save it.
The few elites are all secured baba, they have properties and houses and investments outside Nigeria to last generations.
Have u ever heard that an ex president went to Jail? In South Africa, ex president has gone to jail, in South Korea same thing. Here, no way. They loot away and stay relaxed. It is like we are foolish. I am sick, tired and frustarted of this shithole. I will never say anything good about this hell of a country, I am not doing badly money wise but this country, it is hell. Some of us believed in it and refused to leave, I am regreting now.
Like bro, I am running on gen for hours in 2026 and some people here get mouth dey lambast Namibia whose citizens cant relate to stuff like this.
Like bro, imagine running on gen and still battling network issue. Ur fuel dey waste, ur work time dey waste, u are losing money and the govt wants u to give them 25 percent of that income from this frustrated venture? Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I refuse to abuse god, shaa

This is 2026, I am running on Gen, like I have been on generation since 8AM, I only put off a few times. Withh this nosiy gen from around this place, and mine, I am still battling with poor network. U know the network that takes 1 hour to load a page?
That is the shit, I still had to rush down to buy packs of bottle water, I still need to take my generator downstairs to pump water so we can have water in the taps.

Let me tell u something, Namibia is better than Nigeria. This country is hell. Like, u have lived ur life here, just know that u have lived in frustration. Pls, there is no hope for this damn nation, if u have the resources to run, pls run. Even run go Ghana, u will enjoy better.

Like u shouldnt be dealing with poor network, eletcricity issue and water in 2026 while living in a major city. It is No na. It is pathetic. Nigerians have embraced these things as a norm. That is why they can come online to attack nations that are miles ahead of them.
Dear Nigerians, u are living in Hell. And it has affected how u reason.
Like, I wil buy fuel, waste fuel, then battle with slow wifi provider while my fuel waste, then struggle to pump water with my gen, then hustle all these and still dash govt 25 percent of my income as tax, not 3 percent, not 1 percent, 25 percent? This is wickedness. I hate the creator who created me here, this country is designed to frustrate u.
I worked so hard for this country to take a peny from me while frustrating me. Even the road I drive on are so terrible, no month I dont change tyres because of bad roads. I have wasted 3 hours of my life plus fuel loading my work pages. Damn!
And una get mind dey bash Namibia? Seems u dont know that these stuff we battle with in big cities, in our major cities and federal capital, they cant relate, it is a shame. We are just noisy, empty noise. Most of us, 98 percent of us live a life of slavery, a life of pathetic, a life of pain till we die. The few elites have stollen everything from us but we have mouth when it comes to fighting other African nations. Such a shameless country. Una still dey dig bore hole in 2026. U think it is nomal, right? U were born in it, grew in it and die in it. Shame

I wrote a piece three years ago when the russian Ukrainian war started. I said Russia will try to scatter the bread that France and her allies are enjoying in Africa. For many decades,, Russia didn't care to go outside eastern African. They left west to do their dirty games. But since west still no gree rest and came for exact russian interests, Russia will try to scatter their plans in Africa which is their main strength. Russia has done France so dirty this past year.
This was also the real reason behind trump sudden interest in Nigeria. West Africa is now so important for military operations for the west.

Yeah crime u said but is there no law in their country that protects foreigners no matter the crime they have committed?

Yeah most of the S/AFRICANS have attitude problem.
Go to Facebook pages and see how they always drag Nigerians in every given opportunity

There is no law anywhere in this world that protect U because U are a foreigner. Don't commit crime, period.
Even Nigeria does not protect Nigerians, but U want foreign nations to protect nigeians 🤣
Charity begins at home

I said it was a crime committed by South Africans, it wasnt targetted because someone was a foriegner. The law has apprehended them immediately. At leats, better than our own where over 200 will be killed and no one would be arrested. till date, no one has been arrested for slaughtering over 165 Nigerians in Kwara state. Is that not a shame? In their own, they caught the criminals under few days. Bravo

AMI3:
Good we have internal problem I agree with you but that is not justifiable for a national to kill a foreigner.

Supposing we apply the same measure here in Nigeria what do u think will happen.
Let's say we decide to kill illegal migrants in our to justify that they entered Nigeria illegally and they are operating illegally what do u think will happen next.
Killing is killing no country can solve all their problems.
I know we have bad leaders that is our problem. Don't kill our citizens because of our situation.

They didn't kill the person because he was illegal. Lol, it was purely a crime. The guy was even using their own person's bio details. It was purely crime.
My problem is that we are so fast to label them saddist when we are the worse saddists on earth.

[quote author=AMI3 post=138503629][/quote]So, it is nice for locals to kill locals? This is why Nigeria remains a shit hole, always trying to make other nations right while they cant be right. Like, fix Nigeria and most of our problems are gone. Most people ran out of Nigeria because of insecurity. I am scared of using the high way till date.
I even slept under the heat last night. Nigeria has problems, let fix that. Leave other nations alone. calling SA saddist makes me laugh becuse we are worse saddists

Karlovich:
It will never be well with Lamidi Ogunlere, if he had made the economy conducive this young man wouldn't have embarked on this dangerous journey to make ends meet in an evil nation called Sad Africa.

Similar miserable cretins from there killed Lucky Dube because they thought he was a Nigerian, spits.

Can this be compared to people slaughtered in Nigeria ? The funniest thing about us is that we are so quick to condemn other nations.
Last week alone, over 170 Nigerians were slaughtered and many kidnapped.
Nigerians kill nigeians more than others kill Nigerians.

Melezenawii:
He said "it's unfortunate that people don't know where Politics ends" 😂😂
This man is just an actor.
You went somewhere with cameras and Caps bearing "Obi is coming" if that's not a political move from you then I don't know what to say

https://x.com/sheeun11/status/2023329652773908487

I dont see anything wrong with a non state actor donating stuff and using it as good will and image branding for his political campaign. We need more of it, pls, others should come and invest in education too for political gain. Our education need mad money

GOFRONT:
No way.....No.....No way. America pls go back to ya state. NIGERIA are a SOVEREIGN STATE

We can handule ouwa problem by our sef

Until U stop accepting Aids from US and stop hiding stolen money from politicians there. U aren't sovereign state

Image123:
Oh, so you know that they don't provide solar to individuals. Why then were you making ridiculous requests?

So, where else did responsible govt used citizens money to buy solar for them selves? Where else?

WizardOfNG:
You're simply speaking emotionally and ignorantly. FG does not have the money to "fix electricity" because even the inadequate supply we enjoyed was as a result of subsidy in the power supply sector. As simple as that.

This is why the power sector has been totally deregulated to allow States craft their own unique power solutions.

The hope is that a mix of FG effort allied with State taking full responsibility for their own power needs and then Nigerians complementing this, by a readiness to pay for power, will create a power generation and supply market where investors seeking ROI (returns on investment) can come to invest in the Nigerian power sector in a partnership that works for all.

Full deregulation of the oil downstream sector saw Dangote refinery rise with BUA refinery and others on the way and not far behind. We now no longer have fuel scarcity with things even looking to get better, with greater competition driving down price, when other Private refineries are fully productive.

That is a microcosm of what must be achieved in the power sector. Same way unavoidable removal of fuel subsidy means you have to pay more for petrol to ensure reliable supply.

Concept is same for power sector with Nigeria needing full removal of subsidy so private sector investors, with cash and expertise, can come in to "fix electricity" if Nigerians are ready to pay a fair amount for power they use once subsidy is gone fully.

What I explained above is of course far more complex but hope you get the gist to begin educating yourself and stop talking ignorantly. We are in an information. Expecting FG to "fix electricity" is a hideously ignorant, irresponsible and unfair statement for any adult to make.

Lastly, Solar power is a vastly under-utilised contributor to our power solution mix considering God has blessed us with favourable weather to make much more of solar power.

The FG is therefore leading responsibly choosing to power Aso Rock with renewable and greener energy that will save Nigeria a lot of money in the long run. Nothing like "quiet abandonment" as the lazy article tries cajoling readers to believe.

FG does not have the money to subside electricity, but has money to budget cars for politicians, right? Oga, u cant fool me. Nigerian politicians are wicked, take it anywhere.
They budget billions for cars and their pleasure and budget penny for education and health.
So, FG is saving 47b for Nigerians right? So, what happens to Nigerians them selves who fund FG?

Do u know or should I break down the mouth watering packges designed for politicians? Like even past politicians, we spend heavily on them. So, Nigerians were created to work while politicians enjoy? And u are justifying this rubbish. How can the sit of power abandon her core responsibility of providing stable electricity to use our tax payers money to build 17billion naira solar for them selves. Haaaaa and u are justifying this shit? Like Nigerian politicians are among the highest paid on earth while having some of the poorest and under paid citizens.

Image123:
Do you think at all? Have you articulated reasons why any government in the world would by 'solar' for its citizens? Is this really a thought out alternative? How much do you expect this to cost and who would fund it? Do you think it's government job to buy solar panels for individuals? SMH.

Do u think as well? Govt around the world provide electricity for citizens and not buy solar for them selves

Image123:
Fixing electricity is not mutually exclusive to reducing cost, the two can happen together. State house using solar or not is not what will fix electricity.

Then the govt should provide solar solutions for Nigerians while they are fixing electricity. Nigerians also deserve to sleep with AC / Fan on. It is not designed for politicians alone. They use our tax payers money and resources to give them selves comfort and ask us to suffer. That is evil. There is nothing to celberate here.
Give everyone solar then. At least 17b was spent on Aso rock aside what is spent on president and his family houses, and dont forget, they will be taken care of for life.
So, they should provide us with similar facilities. At least 5m will be enough for each home.

Image123:
They were budgeting reportedly about ₦47 billion per year for electricity.
Someone said let's get solar for 10billion to stop spending 47billion yearly. And you are hear complaining that i am paid. In your mind now, you are abandoned and jilted. They are with you in the struggle when they budget 47billion yearly.
Okay. So gas fuel and generators is not electricity in the school you went. Oh my days.

Fix electricity, period. Leave all these ones. Okay, give us money so we can also install solar and reduce our own budget for electricity.

Image123:
You really assume that they were not experiencing 24/7 electricity before? Ignorance is becoming deadly in this country oh.

U are the funniest human on earth. The topic here is fixing electricity for Nigerians, period. Abandoning it while not fixing our electricity is the deal. What dey Bleep is wrong with u all who try to support politicians here? Is it truly true that some of u are paid?
Our sit of power using Solar where they spent 17b of tax payers money is evil. Nigerians sleep in darkness, doing this is pathetic. And yes, them dey take light for Aso rock that is why they spend heavily on fuel and gas. Look at this one, even national hospital dey use gas and fuel for alternative electricity becus they dont experience 24/7 electricity there from our national grid.

Image123:
We should all be happy that billions should no more be budgeted for electricity bills but here we are. Some people think they are fanning themselves in darkness in Aso Rock, waiting for nepa to bring transformer.

We should be happy? Are u kidding me? Govt was elected to fix electricity which is core to business growth and here they are unable to fix it and have used tax payers money to give them selves 24/7 electricity ranging in 17billion and u said we should be happy? So, what now happens to millions of nIgerians who cant afford over 10m to install proper solar? From business to homes, how do we cope? Or we are condemned to sleep in darkness and and in heat? Mehnnnn

Someone who knew her(was her roommate in uni) was telling me about how intelligent and Very hardworking she(Elohor) was. She described how innovative and smart thinking this lady was, this is made evident in the fact that she is the founder of GROW network and Digital Creator Chic

The most painful part is the fact that she could have been saved if Nigeria did not happen To her! 😑.Fromthe whole of Ilorin having no MRI to Hospitals being on strike to being carried to and fro LAUTECH till she gave up the ghost

It is just sooo sad

We go complain tire since we can't fight these criminals. They even imposed 25 percent tax on us and we are justifying it. We are the most foolish humans on earth.

To god who made me, one kobo of my income tax these politicians won't see. I will rather go to Ghana and dash them my money, that nigerian politicians. This is what we have been screaming about and these governors don't fear U and I because all they need is central might. Federal might is what they brag about and nothing will happen to them. All they do is support the ruling party. We re cooked here. So, some of us will work so hard Nd earn money only to pay heavy 25 percent tax with no accountability ? These guys don see us finish.

eepeepook:
Aso Rock has left the grid. Nigerians will truly suffer. In the same way I get shocked whenever NEPA takes people’s electricity and laugh at news of the grid failing, our presidents will think all the bad news concerning electricity are made up. Sensible ones have since parted from the grid. I pity una wey remain. 5 million Naira will solve your electricity issues for half a decade. Remain stingy to yourselves. Una too like hard life.

So, if I spend 5m to generate electricity for my self, I will still give Tinubu 25percent of my personal income aside other taxes? Them swear for us in this country?

lawani:
It will still drop more. The government said they have not printed any naira note since inception. Some experts say it should be around 1200 by now

Make una just dey decieve una selves. SOmething that is trading over 1420 in normal market.

''SANER CLIMES''.

I wonder what people would say if this happened in Abuja, Sokoto, Port Harcourt, Kano or Lagos.

Many would say it's a sign Nigeria is failed and needs to break up.

But it happens in Italy and some are hailing it as ''Hollywood stuff''.

Next thing they'll suggest making a movie out of it.

Mssheww..

This does not change the fact that terrorists slaugter Nigerians on a daily here, infact, more than 200 dead this month alone. If such happens in Italy, the leader of the country will resign sef

Here we go.
A US base has been the real reason for Trump's persistent nagging these past months.

Country of particular concern my black a**

Are Nigerians being killed or not? The only way to make Trump look lame is if we had a country where terrorists cant just invade and slaughter over 160 people, pause and go for prayers and continue the slaughtering. Nah, that was jst too much of a disgrace
