So many military Generals, yet so much insecurity in the land

One is then left to ponder how and what these men did to merit being appointed Generals in the 1st place

One would think that for one to be appointed a General in the army, he has to have consistently proven himself in battle and also led men who have consistently proven themselves in battle...

And if so many men have consistently proven themselves in battle/battle leadership to warrant being appointed Generals in the Army, what's with all the Bello Turjis and other bandits still roaming around?

The question intelligent investors should be asking themselves is how long will it take for Ellah Lakes revenue to increase from the current N100 million per annum to over N72 billion per annum

Which teams are serious between the winners and losers at the beginning of the season

helinues:
At least they have won their first game at away. Sign of a title contender

We are not playing in the championship so I 100% agree

I'm not a fan of gadgets but it's not the gadgets causing the mass failure of Nigerian students. Finland, South Korea, America, China and Japan are all gadget-heavy users and the average 15 yr old there is better educated than even a 20 yr old Naija university student (go and verify, we're in deep soup).

Our society is so broken, it's ridiculous.

We have NO morals: parents will literally bribe schools to make sure their kids pass exams;

Our Educational curriculum is so backwards (honestly we should really stop graduating kids from at least 60% of STEM courses);

Private schools are too plentiful and are a BUSINESS (which means kids rarely get failed)

Then add on the distraction of gadgets= recipe for disaster.

The issues in WAEC and JAMB have been growing steadily for at least 2 decades and the brain drain has made it worse (I can't tell you how heartbreaking it was to see some of the best teachers and lecturers I knew leave Nigeria to be replaced by less competent persons).

And it's not going to get better.

So get your kids a smart device and do something even better: sit down with them and use that device for deep learning.

Because your kids aren't learning anything in school.

The league is just starting ,don't be too much in a haste to write Arsenal off.

3 points at Old Trafford on an off day,we'll take that.

seborrhic:
All the people saying Utd played well are the ones not well.
These are 3 valuable points lost at home.
Amorim has been given all he needs,yet he is still being tolerated.
No one is questioning why he continues to use Ahmad as a wing back,how he hasn't improved a single player in that united team.
There is a fundamental coaching problem.
All said,let's see how the next few matches will turn out,but if this is what he has to offer over the next 10 matches,then united season is over before October

FXtrader2025:
Its not about playing Amad at wingback but Benching him for Dalot,
Who is Dalot going to cross the ball to? Mount or Cunha?
He benched Zirkzee and Sesko to Play Mount as 9
Benched Ugarte for Casemiro, Todays loss was his fault

dominique:
Final whistle! Now I can finally exhaale with relief.. David Raya should be MOTM, Man Utd for dust us with at least 3 goals if not for him. Arsenal cannot be playing like this if they're serious about winning trophies this season.

SultanOfPuna:
Have you seen Ghana on the map? Look at the size of Ghana

My compound big pass the size of Ghana
Small small countries like that are very easy to secure. 1 aboki and gateman fit secure the whole of ghana

Why Dem no go dey safe.
Country wey be like person compund for vilage

KingCold:
Nope.. Safety is about safety... There are countries with bad infrastructure, but are nonetheless safe

jaszplus12:
Depends on value system. My children have always had phones from childhood and all they do I'm aware of!
Keep engaging them on things that will build them and pray along with them, your own values will impact on them.
I'm sorry your niece put you in a spot, but taking away the phone indefinitely will create a vacuum she would fill when the time comes and she will do so too quickly.
Gadgets are changing continuously don't let your children be left behind thinking they will catch up suddenly...you can let them have only one to share among themselves...that way no one can have monopoly and engage in silly vices.
Best wishes

Lol

Come on how true is this story?

So you mean the driver was stark naked?

https://x.com/GlobalStatsXX/status/1950502449942249909?t=7KWklnCUGSXp4SOKtZeTQQ&s=19[/quote]Interesting list, but the Global Peace Index doesn’t always reflect people’s day-to-day realities. Safety isn’t just about peace—it's also about infrastructure, healthcare, political stability, and how the police and justice systems function. Countries like Rwanda and Seychelles often rank high in safety for residents and tourists, yet they’re missing here. It's worth looking at a broader set of indicators beyond just the GPI score.

You took your time to write all of these?

They are building "BRANDS!". Shey na yansh be the brand?

Anybody using shaking of body/ yansh to build a brand will need that body or yansh to sustain it WHICH IS EQUAL TO PROSTITUTION.

Nigeria is one of the biggest market for Multi choice. The increase in tarriff is due the epileptic power supply and the economy of the country.

Canal plus will face similar challenges and how they react will be interesting. But I know for sure that Canal plus is not a Philanthropist.

SmartPolician:
Multichoice has finally dumped their failing business on an unsuspecting French company. Multichoice staffers will be smiling all the way to the bank now.

I hope the French media company did their due diligence before acquiring Multichoice and that they have a solid strategy for rescuing the company

Corruption all round in every sector

ImpartialGuy:
So I have been thinking lately. Getting jobs has become extremely difficult in Nigeria these days, especially if you have no connection.

In a bid to grab the attention of the employer or HR manager, you take your time to create a compelling CV and mind-blowing cover letter.

If you genuinely want to get the attention of good companies, you know that one CV or cover letter template can't serve many companies. You take your time and energy to perfect your CV and cover letter to suit the JD.

Yet, the recruiter doesn't even bother getting back to you. It's even better to receive a regret email so you can move on but after applying for the job, they don't even tell you whether you are qualified to proceed to the next stage or not. You are just ghosted. Surprisingly, big organisations like OPEC, MTN,NGOs. etc even do that.

So, if you have worked as HR personnel, I want to understand the reason why companies don't bother getting back to applicants after the first application. Even if the applications were many, you can extract the email addresses and send one regret email to all.

When I was still in town, three incidents made me almost give up on Lagos and agberos.


1
One time, I was going somewhere in the morning. Say 8am. I had a traveling bag (note that I wasn't traveling).

I was at Ojota bridge area when suddenly, 3 young guys accosted me and started hailing me, telling me to give them something for the weekend. I told them in English that I didn't have shishi to give. You wouldn't believe that these fewls threatened to seize my phone if I didn't give them money.
I changed it to Yoruba and cussed them. They scuttled away. They thought I was a JJC.


2
Another bitter experience was when BAT visited Lagos and caused heavy traffic. My guy who worked was going home but because of terrible traffic, everybody had to trek at a point. Agberos wanted to snatch his bag and in the process, they stabbed his chest. He bled out like a chicken on the side of the road, with virtually nobody coming to help. Best graduating student of the faculty fa. His daughter was just a few months old.


If Lagos doesn't rid itself of agberos, the state would implode in 20 years time.

ZeroWorries:
If a man finds himself in this situation, what should he do?

End it all?
