That’s on media. In reality, the south had only one candidate, and that’s Jagaban..

Any other candidate are toads amidst crocodiles..

While it's important to preserve our culture and celebrate events like Ojude Oba and other traditional festivals across Nigeria, we must also ask ourselves some difficult questions.

Nigeria is still a developing nation battling poverty, unemployment, poor infrastructure, and economic hardship. Are we focusing enough on the things that truly move us forward?

Every year, millions of naira are spent on grand displays, expensive outfits, luxury cars, and social media showmanship. But beyond the glamour, what tangible impact do these events have on the average Nigerian struggling to survive?

If we can organize festivals of this magnitude successfully year after year, it shows that we have the capacity to come together and achieve great things. Imagine if that same energy, influence, and resources were directed towards empowering youths, creating jobs, supporting businesses, and investing in education.

Sadly, many young people see the lavish lifestyle on display and begin to believe that appearing wealthy is more important than building wealth. Some may even be tempted to take shortcuts just to "belong" or make an appearance at the next edition.

Our obsession with showmanship is becoming alarming. We celebrate consumption more than production. Alcohol companies, beverage brands, fashion businesses, and luxury vendors make huge profits from these events, yet the communities around us remain largely poor.

This is not an attack on culture. Culture is important. Tradition is important. But progress is equally important.

As a nation, we must begin to ask ourselves: Are these endless parties and celebrations moving us forward or keeping us distracted from the real work of nation-building?

Nigeria doesn't just need more celebrations. Nigeria needs more empowerment, more innovation, more productivity, and more opportunities for its people.

Food for thought.

Nonsense lamentation. People are celebrating their cultural heritage and you're here spitting trash..

How has celebrating Christmas/Sallah helped the common man? Every year, people waste millions to go over to Jerusalem in the name of holy land. The Muslim ones have been stoning one imaginary Devil for more than 1,000 years, yet the devil wey dem dey stone no greee die..

Both Saudi and Isreal are making millions of dollars every year because people are just way gullible..

Imagine the money being spent to go to Jerusalem/Saudi is being spent here in Nigeria. Imagine how far those money would have gone..

Lol 😂

.

That's not the authentic Arsenal way of playing good football. Each time they do that, they regret it. Play your normal Arsenal kinda football, no, na too dey overdefend. See as dem use penalties win dem. PSG couldn't score an open goal. Arteta must go so Arsenal can have their normal play style again even if they don't win cups.

What’s Arsenal kinda football?

Arteta should go and the bring in which coach?

ravensckar:
Not yet, but at the end of the match, you'll need a handkerchief to wipe the tears.

Instead of you people to ask us (Chelsea) to teach you how we did it in Club World Cup. You guys are forming Commando.

There's no crime in asking for help from your "Big Brother" the Blues.

#Picks_tooth

Funny enough, they might have that mindset of… Shebi Chelsea beat PSG for final, we can do better..

Dem think say nah play..

Diamond098454:

President Tinubu is the best thing that has happened to this country in recent years...

Remove h#tred from your heart....you would see how he is repositioning this country in the global comity of nations.

List the achievements of Gej
List the achievements of Peter Noisemaker failure olodo Obi

I can list jagaban achievements in just three years.

Ongoing 440+ roads project

10k dialysis fee for kidney diseased patients

Fuel scarcity is a thing of the past

No more ASUU strike

PBAT's government has neutralized more terrorists leaders than any Nigerian president

It's crazy how President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is outdoing Buhari's 8 years in just 3.

Insecurity is political motivated... Nigeria would overcome

Confam

It’s very very clear..

Your Facebook has been hacked

SmartPolician:
Oga, stop playing the victim card. You cannot vote for a stupid leader and expect miracle. You people will still understand the consequences of voting for a terrible leader.

We still dey preamble. Let Tinubu win in 2027 when he won't need our votes anymore, na that time una go see the one wey senior Beatrice!

I’m not forming any victim. Just stating the obvious.

So, mocking innocent kids is the solution?

You’re not smart at all

Skullminers1:
I hope you know this one is Peter Okoye you Yorubas love with passion because he married Lola your sister and this is not Paul Okoye(Rude boy)you people hate with passion for no just reason.
Any Igbo that sing una praises you will people will pretend you love the person but the moment the person says honest and bitter truth just like Peter Okoye did he automatically become you people's enemy and I pity those Igbos that allows you people to deceive them like Soludo,Dave Umahi,etc

Stop saying nonsense bro. Soludo, Umahi can never display this kind of bigotryyy.

If the kids in this context are Ibo kids, would peter reacted this way?

Klington:
The only language you people understand is tribal bigotry and that's why you keep supporting people who don't care about anyone not even you and your people.

If the kids in this context are Ibo kids, would he reacted this way?

DmonSlayer10:
Not everyone is as Bigoted as you?

Don't project yourself into others.

Peter Okoye Has never ever displayed any signs of his ethnic affiliations ; He speaks Hausa and Yoruba far more than the language of his ethnic stock.

He was born and bred in Hausaland and grew into Adulthood in Lagos.His wife,his in-laws are all Yorubas!

So you know not what you say.

If the kids in this context are Ibo kids, would he reacted this way?

dmxnairaland:
The money did not belong to him but it was in his account and he was the one that forfeited it to avoid him going to jail.

It must be a prerequisite for common sense to elude you, in order to be a Tinubu supporter......Not like that is news. I mean, look at Bwala.

You’re not sharp. How do you go to jail when you’re not charged for any crime?

So if you received an unknown money inside your account now, does that mean it belongs to you cuz it entered into your account?

anonimi:
If he was never CHARGED to court, how come he forfeited $460,000 to the US government to avoid jail like that useless oba in Osun state

The money forfeited doesn’t belong to him. IRS did their job and found out it was an unknown money to Tinubu..

They deducted the money from his account and that was the end! No charges, no indictments for any crime!

Macphenson:
Just imagine what this clueless President is saying. Children are being molested and held captive in Oyo state, but he is not bothered. No rescue mission since the incident took place.

No state is borrowing to pay salaries while you borrow away out future with only 17% capital project implementation.
Tinubu is the S.I. unit of failure in governance and administration.

You people claiming opposition are just not brilliant at all. Same lame empty story. How’s he not bothered? Nah by words dem go recover those kids? The kids you're referring to would soon gain freedom, no be by making noise..

That being said, are you not happy that states are no longer borrowing to pay salaries? I won’t be surprised if you’re sad that states are no longer paying salaries, but that’s your own personal problem..

All of una propaganda towards tinubu never worked out till date. Why? Cuz you people are just empty. Una go try taya and nah still failure go end ham!

geoworldedu:
If only they had sentenced Tinubu to life imprisonment in Chicago that year, this great tribulation would not have come to pass in Nigeria.

Unfortunately for you, he was never charged to court for any crime..

Una mind no go everly touch ground !

They’re the one, onen’t it?

F..

Cashio:
He is a tribal bigot for saying the simple truth? Most of you fools voted this calamity and still supports it and we are all suffering the consequences but your problem is psquare ? Shey na psquare cause now make cooking gas climb reach 2k and ordinary kerosene now 4k? Shey na psquare make families nor dey fit eat twice daily again? Shey na him carry fuel go 1400 per litre now? Na him make a bag of cement reach 13k from 4500 just two years ago?

I’ve responded to you but nairaland took down my post..

No worries, life still long gan! We go too mock ourselves ehh!

He has always been a tribal bigot. I’m sure if the kids in this context are Ibo kids, he wouldn’t reacted this way. Nothing surprising here. Nah their way..

If you wanna call out government, call out government… But why mocking innocent kids?

Small boy

Tinubu wey dem don vote already..

dominique:
I don't believe the pineapple plants grown by farmers take 3 years to harvest o. Yours must have taken that long because you didn't tend to it the way the farmers do

It does. The ones farmers are selling to you are mostly GMO… They can’t wait to make money..

Majority of fruit you People eat these days are GMO!

Afriifa:
Assemble all the community leaders, chiefs, kings right to the level of the village heads up to the sultan from northern Nigeria in Abuja.
Diplomatically discuss issues with them, while also warning them I will turn the region upside and make it inhabitable for all of them if the issue of insecurity is not resolved in two weeks.

Lol

See this one

Party of fraud & deceit..

DarkkManB:
Enough of rawbeech. It's been how many years now that they don't want to reveal the truth

They’re just playing people..

2pac was unalive by Yankee government

All these court paparazzi are just movies..

FSBoperator:
You are the biggest fraud here who edited a video of one of the ward election venues in the just concluded APC primaries.

Why are you so decietful that you had to edit the primaries of another party and rebrand it as NDC's?

Lol..

No social app without bots..

Go deep and research..

CanadaOrBust:
ALL these below in the screenshots are Americans and the all say Trump is the greatest president









All these Americans below agree!

These are republicans bots. Americans already clarify.

SeverusSnape:
TUluMbU the Useless drug baron is the worst president in Nigerian history, No Nigerian should dare oppose this fact.

Tinubu was never certified a drug baron bt any court. Meanwhile, I’ll still be open:

Can you kindly show evidence how tinubu was a drug baron?

He’s seriously sick..

Saw it on ABC news

CanadaOrBust:
Now, now, now. Them's fighting words. How do you know he's smelly??
Now, while I don't agree with his penchant for wanting to slap his name on everything, I do think he's about the greatest president US has ever had

Greatest what?

What an insult to other previous USA president. No American would dare say such nonsense you just spew out..

Even Elon musk don tell Americans Trump is a failure..

She & Ned don divorce officially?
