To be frank, I see Steve Akintayo running into problem with his current business model. It seems to be turning to another ponzi scheme that is waiting to explode.

That guy is a scam

he is probably in big debt to banks in america and now he wants to use ppl hard earned money to save himself.

Dear Nairalanders,

I want to thank you for your continued feedback and patience as we tackle the crisis caused by our decision to use the antispam bot to enforce more rules on Nairaland. While the action helped us to tackle many chronic issues, it also led to disastrous ban of hundreds of innocent Nairalanders. To significantly improve accuracy and reduce frustrating errors, we have refocused the bot's tasks. It will avoid moderating complex issues that require human nuance that it cannot reliably provide.

While we work on further improvements, here are some tips to ensure your posts don't accidentally trigger the bot under its current, focused mandate:
- Keep your posts related to the thread topic.
- You can disagree strongly with fellow Nairalanders, but do not insult them.
- Don't put any type of obscene content on Nairaland.
- Do not encourage or call for violence against anyone.
- Don't spam or try to scam Nairalanders. We will not tolerate this.
- Don't illegally upload or post links to illegally download copyrighted music, movies, games, or software.

We believe these changes are a significant step towards a better balance – tackling clear violations more effectively while minimizing the frustration caused by bot errors on complex social issues. We will continue to monitor the bot's performance closely.

Thank you for being part of the Nairaland community.

Best Regards,
Seun Osewa.

ChildOfDoom:
I started womanizing to help me overcome my addiction of Betting.

It has helped to an extent as I spend majority of my time in a brothel, Eating, drinking, relaxing and fvcking (my mind leaves betting).

The issue now is that, since I started three years back, I have been treating one infection to another. Currently having skin reaction that brings out small inflammation and rashes on my body like my favourite olosho.

I can't help it. I have tried switching to drinking to take over womanizing, but it won't work.

Except I go back to betting (which is worse). In the past, I would sit all day in a bet9ja shop wasting away - gambling with my money, people's money and my belongings. Then I lose focus and don't work

But with womanizing, at least I get some pleasure, and get to use my money little by little. The rate at which it finishes is not as fast as betting.

The thought of having to choose between different bannies to lash at night keeps me motivated during the day to work harder for cash. Just the infection part as condom do burst at times while there are some I only do raw.

I know my lifespan is short, I just want to enjoy it with a sane mind and not fleeing from betting woes. My body is wired to do one addiction to stay placated/elated.

Having a girlfriend is scary. What if I invest a lot on just one girl and she cheats on me

Rather than be nacking ashawo and getting infections non terminal and terminal plus many bad luck . You can masturbate instead


The best thing is to stop get ur self tested and stop visiting brothels.


If you sleep with 3 women who are not ashawo you go still get something especially uncomfortable itching under your balls and in your private area.


Trust me that thing is not nice and embarrassing

Just get one woman wey you go dey nack steady it’s a lot healthier .

You wey dey nack public Toto u dey complain if cheating.

ResidentSnitch:
You've been consistently told that Lagos is not a Yoruba land and at the most a no man's land, and you're troubling yourself.
For emphasis, Lagos is not a Yoruba land.
That was the Oba ( not even an ethnic Yoruba ) confirming a title on GRV ( the same person Afon*jas claim is not Yoruba). Go figure.

Thief Ole Barawo , Badary ppl (Egun) and yoruba (awori) have been living together for thousands of years.

Go claim lagos na...longer throat person..blame your ancestors for not been welcoming and having long term vision. Dem for invest in your village too

Egun and Yoruba dem be brothers dem get mouth. No be you

Yoruba and Egun ppl are indigenes of the land everybody else na migrant. Oba Akran is recognised and has authority

Na Nigeria Join us together.

helinues:
The purpose of bathing is to clean the dirt from our body. With the application of soap( any), the cleansing is made easy.

But after bathing with soap, the towel still get dirty after bath.

Why? Let's see who can get close

If you don’t wash properly you will find stain on your towel. Washing with soap and sponge to remove all the raurau.


It’s like washing a dirty plate if you don’t wash it well it can still stain a paper towel or dish rag

CSTRR:
These people and their unending parasitism.

They are smart sha.

They want access to all rich zones of the South where they can plunder in the name of one naijeria.

At face value, you would think there's nothing wrong with creating another Abuja.

But unlike Abuja that took from the center because there is no resources there, those two states of Lagos and rivers would be the ones feeding the center.

The northerners now want the same right to the resources and opportunities present in those states like an indigene, where they can crowd themselves in.

they are not smart they think they are smart.

Who Federal government help

AfriqueDuZuid:
Johannesburg is not a capital city

Pretoria, bloemfontein and cape Town are

They have capital for president capital for judicial etc.

Nigeria cannot afford it

They will triple government officials.

I know this na just foolish thinking on people with some dumb agenda.

It’s dead on arrival unless they change the constitution. We are not in military rule

TyroneP:
Lagos as Economic Capital
Rivers as Administrative Capital
FCT as Seat of Government

What is difference between seat of government and administrative capital. i think its a foolish idea Nigeria does not need more government ppl to feed as they are the one eating all the money meant for development. As them small like dis the money they make no even dey circulate or improve the cities.. talk less of adding more federal mouths

The economic capital is based on private industry and hustle. also access to sea

Kelklein:
This actually makes alot of sense.. it ultimately helps to devolve Development instead of overfocusing on Abuja.

South Africa used the same strategy.. with about three different capitals around the country in J'burg, Pretoria and Cape Town all developing side by side..

Does not why focus on southern state. is it for developmental or political reason. the abuja FCt is not even well maintain talk less of 3.

This people dont understand the concept of federalism

By the way Oga South africa is not practicing Federalism where a Federal capital is required for seat of the Federal government. they are a unitary system

Beijing retaliated with an 84% import tariff after Trump had pushed up 104% on Chinese goods to the US


Donald Trump

China was his target all along just dey play to gallery

Namaster:
This is the DUMBEST man that ever dumbed!

He's a US Citizen with a US Passport and he's BITCHING about NOT getting a Nigerian Passport.

Absolute MADNESS!

For context, the US Passport can travel to 186 countries in the world WITHOUT Visa. The Nigerian Passport can only travel to 44, mostly African, countries WITHOUT Visa.

Owning a US Passport and still bitching about not getting a Nigerian passport is like standing in a SPRING of sparkling water and still begging for PUREWATER.

It's MADNESS!

Oga say na Nigeria dey affect ur brain?

What the guy is talking about is reciprocity

In the west if u get married to a citizen after some years you will become a citizen of your spouse.

But in Nigeria you can’t become a citizen is what he is saying.

If Trump says he wants to recriprocate now people will say he is mad.

TimeManager:
I can't agree more, a lot of Nigerians abroad are seeking to return home. If Trump will not give you peace of mind, why not carry your load and return to Daddy Tinubu.
And if anyone knows her, please give her my contacts or tell her to dm me, she's going to be a good ambassador for brand Nigeria. Her accomodation and job will be covered upon return. Let's encourage one another, God bless Nigeria.



-Kiss the truth!

Is not even about trump for some.

It’s been undervalued and wasting away . Money is not everything for person wey don chop belle full

Sometimes you want to reach your potential

gigabyte13:
Hmmmmm
China go show Trump shege
China really prepared for Trump on this trade war matter.
China knew what he tried to do last time he was in power.
China came prepared for Trump even militarily.
Trump go think say na joke.
Na China go show other countries the way to deal with USA.
China no be Russia.

Na USA five China power by moving all their low cost manufacturing there. Now then don get mind to bite the finger that feed them.

aswani:
Trump is not a billionaire, he has refused to file his tax returns since God-knows-when for a reason.

The money he inherited fron his dad has gone down a lot net worth wise.

Also he didn't win elections based on his financial acumen, he won based on the rednecks love for one of their own.

He and his organisation have been found guilty in court for various unethical behaviour.

The same person that was telling Georgia state officials to make up votes for him is not someone that knows what he is doing.

Hail Trump for whatever reason but do it with truth, not blatant falsehood.

Forget he is a billionaire his properties alone in manhattan nyc , Chicago downtown and marlago Florida plus luxury apartments everywhere. Plus other hotels.

He invested in real estate in heavily in the 80s


Most billionaires take advantage of legal loopholes holes not to pay tax because they are entity’s .

All they have to do is show significant losses and you can get away with taxable income.


Go and watch documentaries on trump you will see that he was a self starter . Someone like a Davido whose father had money buy still able to generate billions for himself.

Tinubuadvocate:
This trump just destroying the world contrary to initial claims. World really need to brace up because economy down town is here already.

He wants fair / reciprocal trade for his country. How is that bad

bigpicture001:
Ok.. let's get started..

Tarrifs as they call it means import duty.. that is the levy placed by the government of a country on goods entering the country when her business people buy goods from another country

Now trumps annoyance is somehow justified.. the US being the biggest economies of the world has found itself concerned more about facilitating global influence in politics more than in economy... For the advantage to swing nations to its side during decision making on different political issues, the US started to reduce import duties charged on goods entering America.. so that it can be cheap and attract it's local market...

What the Us usually want in return for making your good cheap in the US is usually political support...

Why the US market is very important for everyone :

Over the years Americas living wages has quadruple, making them one of the highest earners in the world.. the average American 3 cars in their life time... They have a culture of buying anyhow Making market demand to b very strong.. for ur info.. the US buys about 40% of everything produced in Europe and about 85% of everything produced in Canada... In Africa, the US even abolished tarrifs on a special bill Clinton project called African growth and opportunities act, AGOA,....

This was okay and the US economy can carry almost all the world production in consumption... Making the Us market the best in the world...

Now in the last two decades.. china came up, and stated to steal technology and refusing to sign copy right law, they over produce, they penetrate alot of market, they subsidizes their goods to gain cheap cost and penetrate global markets... Aldou, they have their share of US market demand for their goods... They started to take advantage of the US generosity on global market.. for example... Among the Americas, the US place 10% tarrifs on goods from all it's neighbors on goods entering America..

U know what china did next..they went to Mexico, Canada, Haiti, Costa Rica etc and started setting up factories of all sort and started flooded the whole us with cheap products taking advantage of the US special relationship with it's neighbors...

Another one .the whole of Africa enjois free import tax from the US government so long as the goods come from Africa...china came again setting up factories everywhere to take advantage and sink the Us economy...even to the extent south Africa that benefits the most from that arrangements with African went against the US at the Us and started making na boasting of it


The truth is that the Us is as a trade tarrifs disadvantage on all nations...for example..tarrifs placed on cars imported from US to Canada was at 25% by the Canadian government, but the US equivalent tarrifs of cars from Canada to the US is at 5%...

The US has so many many trade tarrifs disadvantage, ND that is what trup changed...he only studied every countries tarrifs again them..and level their up to what u placed on them so it become equal...that is all he did

Well said Trump is targeting China and has been saying for long that China is stealing their lunch.

Chinese will steal your technology and duplicate it for cheap at inferior rate and sell it to the world.

All those countries have to do is reduce their tariffs.

Trump is a business man and not a politican and he sees the trade imbalance.

Does it impact Naija majorly i dont think so wetin nigeria dey Export?.

If we have people with Brains in government we will review the trade policy and tarriff vs China and European countries.


Trump is making people see that China is taking advantage of the world. They dump stuff in your country but you cannot sell in theirs.

His number one Target is China.

More reason why he is backing Russia to break up China Russia relationship and Isolate China and reduce their power in the pacific

The US made China Rich by moving all their manufacturing and now China is competing with US.

gbaskiboy:
Can someone explain this to me, explain it to me like am a 5 year old boy.

Trump is saying other countries have tarrifs against US products but the US dont have tarriffs on global goods. Thus to balance the trade he has but reciprocity.

For example you sell cow and i sell tomatoes. to sell you cow in my country i add 20% tarriff thus Cows from your countries are too expensicve and will not sell. howwever my tomatoes are selling in your country without any additional tarriff. look at tarriff like an additional tax.
