Loan companies have taken to social media platform TikTok to shame and mock loan defaulters by posting their passport details online. This alarming practice aims to publicly humiliate individuals who have failed to repay their loans, in an attempt to coerce them into settling their debts.

The move has sparked widespread criticism, with many condemning the tactic as unethical and invasive. Privacy concerns are being raised, as sensitive personal information is being shared without consent.

Regulatory bodies and authorities are being urged to intervene and establish stricter guidelines for loan companies to prevent such exploitative practices.

PrinceOfLagos:
Rivers State governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has presented Certificates of Recognition and Staff of Office to former Niger Delta militant leader, Alhaji Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, and three others as newly recognised traditional rulers in the state.


Dokubo-Asari was presented with a certificate and staff of office as the Amanyanabo of Torusarama Piri in Degema local government area of the state.

Others are HRM, Winston Odize Alamina Oputibeya XII, as the Amanyanabo of Koniju in Okrika local government area; HRM Eze Noble Friday Uwo as the Eze Igbu-Ehuda (Ahoada) IV in Ahoada-East local hovernment area and HRH Prince Ike Ehie as the Eze Igbu Orilukwoe in Ahoada-East local government area of the state.

Presenting the certificates and staff of office to the four new traditional rulers at Government House, Port Harcourt on Tuesday, Governor Fubara urged them not to see their new positions as tool for personal aggrandizement, rather they should see it as a call for service and responsibility to help government protect lives and property in their respective domains.


The governor said: “Let me first of all, on behalf of the government, congratulate the four of you. It has not been an easy journey to get to this point. I know a lot of you have been working very hard to ensure the success of this day. Your appointment in terms of this recognition is not for personal aggrandizement, but a call for service, a responsibility to help us protect lives and property in your domains.”

He stated that though government has the power to withdraw the recognition from any traditional ruler found wanting, Fubara quickly added that it was not his intention to exercise such authority, and warned them not to use the privileged positions to create problems in their domains, but join forces with government to ensure the success of the administration in it’s avowed commitment to deliver dividends of democracy to the people.

Fubara said, “I don’t want you to see this elevation as another platform to create problems in your locality. We have the power to still withdraw the recognition, but I don’t intend to do that. So, I want you to be partners with the government to ensure that we continue to succeed.

“I know that you are all men of integrity. Support the course of governance so that we can all succeed together. It is really a privileged position, and I am very sure that you are going to use it to the best of the interest of your people.”

In his opening remarks, the State’s Commissioner for Chieftaincy and Community Affairs, Engr. Charles Amadi, said the newly recognised traditional rulers include two royal majesties and two royal highnesses, and commended Fubara for adding into the number of Rivers State Council of Traditional Rulers.

You are 100% correct. Post of the day award goes to you. Good precedence will be set whoever wins.

If Babalola wins then Farotimi will be punished and may go to jail for a year. Sending a huge message to public defamers and purveyors of fake news that Nigeria is no longer open to allow their business flourish.

If Farotimi wins, it will mean he has proven his case and will show many potential whistelblowers and activist what they too must do to cleanse the augean Stable and sanitise Nigeria. They should begin taking their cue from the west where whistelblowers will usually have amassed documented or video evidence, audio recordings, paper trails etc before they go public with allegations.

In fact many blockbuster films have been based on this theme in the long history of Hollywood with the conclusion always been that evidence is provided to indict the most mighty and bring them to book.

The intelligent and neutral Nigerians will simply wait for the conclusion, that will be good and development for Nigeria, whoever comes out victorious, rather than taking sides.

Software Engineer Criticizes Verydarkman (VDM) Over Account Hack Claim and Missing ₦180M

An acclaimed Senior Software Engineer has criticized Verydarkman (VDM), a popular social media commentator and activist, over claims that his account was hacked and ₦180 million stolen.

According to the engineer, who stated that he has been in the field for over 15 years, VDM’s assertion that his website was hacked and ₦180 million stolen is highly improbable. He added that unless someone had deliberately set VDM up, it is difficult to see how such a large sum of money could be moved from his account following a website hack.

This issue has sparked mixed reactions on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, now owned by Elon Musk.

What's your Advice and opinion about this.
This is actually true life scenario and I'm posting for someone anonymously.

A guy and a lady planned to travel to the UK on a student visa together they contributed and paid the deposit. The plan and agreement was that the guy will study then the lady will work to help with the tuition fee payment of £18k 50-50. then after school everyone will go their way.

Before they traveled, the lady was subtly catching feelings for the guy but the guy was having none of it because it's just contract for him.

When they got to the UK last year, they both moved to different cities , the guy started school and she got a job and started working.

When it was time to pay the balance of the tuition, the lady refused to contribute to the payment. Claiming she doesn't have money and if she must pay it, she will have to move in with him and start acting like his wife.

The guy refused and reminded her about the agreement. She insisted on her own ideas. When she saw that the guy was not bulging she blocked him on all social media so he was not able to reach her for sometime.

When the pressure from school became too much , the guy started hustling day and night breaking his back and still covering his lectures and assignments.

The guy was tempted to remove her from his visa because he's the main visa holder and she's the dependant but he didn't , hoping that she will still fulfill her own part of the agreement.

She remained incommunicado untill the guy managed to pay off all the tuition, passed all his courses and finished school.

Few months after he finished school , she reached out and was acting all friendly. Apparently the company she was hoping to get a sponsorship from disappointed her so she was trying to buy her way into jumping on the 2 years post graduate visa the guy was about to apply for.

Remember, out of the £18k tuition , she only contributed £2k for the deposit and refused all further payments. Now she wants to give the guy £2k to take him on his post graduate visa.

The guy refused and removed her from his visa because of her wickedness and untrustworthiness.
Her visa expired and as she was not able to see a sponsor,she was asked to leave the country .now she's in Nigeria swearing for the guy. Threatening to report him to her village juju etc.

Do you think he did the right thing??

The man wielding the AK-47 should be found and persecuted to the full extent of the law. I own several guns illegally but I will only use it to defend myself and family in extreme situations where my life is threatened and not over a verbal altercation.

Samantha125:
If you found her dressing like that, the you'd have two choices.

Either you respect her style of dressing or you hit the road.

You can't find someone who's comfortable and confident in her own skin and start manipulating her into losing her own self confidence for your own selfish reasons ... If you want a woman who dresses like Deeper Life sisters, then go to Deeper Life church and get yourself a Deeper Life sister.

Animegirl:
I have a burning passion to become a wealthy and successful woman, but I'm worried that getting married and having children might force me to put my dreams on hold. I'm concerned that I won't be able to balance family life with my personal ambitions. Furthermore, the societal pressures in Nigeria, combined with the constraints of time and age, are making me feel like I'm already at a disadvantage. My desire for success is strong, but I'm fearful that having a family might mean sacrificing my dreams.

I'm really scared.

Coward got assasinated. No one cares! 😂

Russia's a bloody joke! Can't even protect their precious generals. What a bunch of incompetent lads! Invading a country that never attacked them, and now they're paying the price.

More of their pathetic leaders will fall, and we'll be laughing all the way. To Putin's soldiers and fanboys, you're nothing but disposable cannon fodder for his ego. Bloody cowards!
