OP, go and check the meaning of sarcasm

Good political move

If true, this is very un-Nigerian. We tend to hold on to offices even when bed-ridden.

May he rest well.

It still beats me how one of the most corrupt governors ever, Ibori, is the best governor of Delta state. Shameful. I lived in Warri and I've been to other major towns. Nothing to write home about. Development is skewed towards Asaba axis. I am afraid the majority Urhobos and Itsekiri might not give Delta Igbos a chance again

I've been introverted since I was born. I only got to really know what it's all about 10 years ago. It's sometimes difficult living with extroverts. I don't enjoy loudness. I always find time to withdraw and have a lonely time just to recharge myself.
It's possible that some introverts are made. For me, I've noticed the trait in my family. I have a cousin who will past me without any greetings and you can find him the next minute posting my picture on his status "Big bro".
I'm still struggling seriously with introversion. At work, they say you should make yourself 'visible'. For me, it takes a long time to know many people. For extroverts, they can know everyone in the organization in 1 week. Again, i tend to suffer from imposter syndrome which is a phenomenon where you feel it wasn't your efforts, but luck, which made get some achievements.
I will recommend a good book about introversion : Quiet by Susan Cain. As an introvert, it is a must-read for you

Kaduna is heavily indebted in foreign loans. I think the second nationwide. Though for Elrufai, the imprints are visible

Good day my people,
Please would you recommend this wooden door as flush door for room and toilet. What are its disadvantages?

Thanks

Kano is NNPP

This is a sad development. It's a case of the chicken coming home to roost. Just few months ago, many of SErs were publicly celebrating the killing of scores of security who were actually sent to protect them. It's not left for them to clean the Augean stables. It's either they quickly nip this or their states continue to suffer. The political repercussions are even more damning
Statesmen from the SE should condemn IPOB and its atrocities. They should stop romancing NK. Let them come together and have one voice to the FG to help them deal with these guys

A word is enough for the wise

Urheadmaster:
When will he visit prophet Muhammad

May you be guided

too bad

The oath was introduced to santise islamic threads that get trolled especially on Fridays. Many years ago, Christians flood islamic threads with all sort of insults and the likes. The oath has actually minimized such stray comments. Except one or two monikers here, you hardly read muslims heaping insults on Christianity.
So, if the Christians herein will engage in a civil manner on islamic threads, muslims are glad to have a respectful exchange. But if its the other way, everyone should stick to their sections

Chai. Which kind flyover be this na? SE is the unluckiest zone in terms of governors competence.

I prefer to listen to Dele M. rather than to listen to you. Get it.

You're at liberty to listen to him. I just pray that politicians like him don't recreate a Rwanda in Nigeria.
It's the same DM that's was hyping PMB just 7 years ago. It's very probable for him to shift camp back to same man to lubricate his Ovation magazine

Advocate500:

Hehe. Whether I'm really from the north or not, ot doesn't change the content, O you knower of the unseen

Stoking sentiments as usual. Fulani this, fulani that. I'm a northerner non Fulani. The way the southerners inflate this Fulani issue is really surprising. Apart of the current banditry, most perpetrated by Fulani stock, there's nothing about domineering about them. I'm surprised that Dele is deliberately coalescing every Northern muslim as Fulani. I am 100% sure it's intentional. How is Mele Kyari, Mohammed Nami, Magashi etc Fulani?
Fellow Nigerians, let's not be deceived by likes of DM. He is financially buoyant to live the e rest of his life in the comfort of developed countries. They will flare up the country and leave us struggling to quench the fire. Is Buhari a failure? Yes. Is he nepotistic? Yes. Is he hellbent on Islamisation? No. Let's be smart enough to do away with Buhari without hurting ourselves

By Semiu Okanlawon

I am fasting. So, I am naturally (or religiously restrained) from talking about, watching or commenting on some things. But I must not allow this Chrisland saga to slide without chipping in a few words. I was alarmed on Monday. But what alarmed you was not what alarmed me. You were alarmed by the “breaking news” of a 13-year-old having a ‘good time’ in a faraway Dubai hotel. For me, that was “broken news.” I was alarmed that you all were alarmed by what should not alarm you. Something you should know and must not pretend does not happen even in your backyard.

I don’t know why we are all yelling o. Why are we such a pretentious lot? I hate it when we set processes in motion and we then pretend to be alarmed at the outcome of our actions. Hey! We are the arsonists. So, don’t let us pretend to be the firefighters? Why should the sex tape of a 13-year-old and 10-year-old get you off your feet when you have ‘nurtured’ their generation with the same nourishment of sleaze from the wombs?

At home, what do mothers wear? At birthday parties, what do children dance to? On televisions, what do families watch? At schools, what do teachers discuss? In classrooms, what do students share? On social media, what do we all post, like, retweet and share? On our phones, which apps take more of our time?

At the heart of the new generation are sex, sex and sex. Unfortunately, you all assume their innocence when many of them had surpassed your records in all the departments of experimentation. And then, you expect teens holed up in a luxury hotel far away from the prying eyes of adults not to fulfil their ‘missions?’ When all they had watched on Instagram and Tiktok are your celebs, your society’s role models; those constantly on the lips of their parents during family leisure times, promoting sex, gleefully sharing their moments of ecstasies and fantasies in Emirati swimming pools!
Why do you think the gun has spiralled out of control in the United States of America? That you find the young and the old spitting bullets at the slightest provocations or killing as pastimes is because there are little or no restrictions and the allure for violence is everywhere near you. Across the globe, Nigeria and your very doorstep are not exempted, sex has spiralled out of control and it is a free game.

Now, tell me which corporate organisation today goes all out in search of first-class graduates of universities to offer them jobs? Is Nigeria even looking for geniuses who, with no formal education, are endowed with natural talents to fabricate life-changing devices? No! And there are hundreds of them pleading with media houses to broadcast their possibilities for the authorities to spot them and lift them. No one is looking in the direction of talents from the laboratories of universities or libraries of colleges.

‘Talents’ from reality shows are the new leaders of society. They are the ones who breeze in at social events and the heads turn. If you doubt my claim, our corporate affairs departments scout for fresh winners of reality shows where sex, nudity and all forms of other things are the contents of the contests.
Last week, Arise TV did a special coverage titled ‘The Influencer Economy’. The focus was on the millions those on our social media pages are making with their acts; many of them nude content. If they are not promoting “with their full chests,” they are shaking the tables with their “bad backsides”. One of those who recently came out of a reality show confessed right in her Victoria Island hotel that she had all the corporate organisations’ representatives literally waiting for her to come down from her hotel room to sign deals. “Yes! Deals in millions!”
And you know what? You cannot be a loser in reality shows! Even when you are evicted on the first day, you have simply become a celebrity and you start making money from day one.

I read something like one of the housemates of the last BBNaija, a lady who left nothing to the imagination claimed that her social media pages were being managed by her father since she got holed up in the show. If that was the case, it then means that all those salacious images of the housemate were put out for the world to see by the man who brought her into this world. And we are here crying over what teens were doing in their hotel rooms in Dubai!

Another reality contestant, who entered the show with her cleavages tattooed with the image of Davido once revealed she got all the support and necessary backing from her parents for her choice. Ironically, the same Davido, with all his own weird ways, could be seen in a video last year spanking his daughter who attempted to twerk amidst other people possibly at a children’s party. I don’t even know whether to pat him for nurturing his daughter and kick him at the same time for the number of women used as objects in his performances.

I was captivated by this tweet, out of the many that trailed the ‘broken news’ of the Chrisland Dubai saga by Man of Letters with the handle @Letter_to_Jack when he wrote: “Nigerian parents think parental advisory is a joke. You’d see children listening to and singing “I’m cumming” out loud at a party with their parents present, some dancing soapy, others are watching movies rated 18+. The worst was kids singing “Alẹ yi a le“.
The tweet sums up the worries of those who are daily assaulted by adult scenes in teens’ presence which the society no longer frowns at.
That is who we are. We pretend nothing is happening until the alarm bell sounds and we shed crocodile tears. God bless the soul of Ola Rotimi, the author of ‘The gods are not to blame’. He reminded us that when we leave our pots unwashed, we should expect our food to burn.

And which takes me to the mother of the Chrisland schoolgirl in question. As pitiable as the situation her family has found themselves in, I am of the opinion that she won’t go far if the case she desires to press is rape. I am yet to see any major argument in support of her conclusion that her daughter was an unwilling actor in that show of shame with the video that millions have watched and would still watch.
A teenager alleged to be running an online ‘business’ bordering on such sleazy affairs with personal clips that show her proclivity for sexual content has already put a question mark on her parents’ capacity for monitoring and care.

Consequently, her mother’s video asking Nigerians and the government to help is a sentiment dead on arrival. This is because, by virtue of what most Nigerians have seen, there stands a general belief that she is far deeper and more advanced in her choices than her parents are willing to admit. And the same argument goes for the boy(s) in the entire show.

We are a religious lot. But hardly do we pay attention to the dictates of our faiths. In Islam that I am familiar with, even siblings of opposite genders are advised strongly to be separated at certain ages and the rationale is not far from preventing the unthinkable.

Those scriptural prescriptions could therefore not have been of no value when you are enjoined like in Quran Chapter 24 verse 30-31. It reads: “Tell the believing men to lower their gaze and to be mindful of their chastity: this will be most conducive to their purity – (and,) verily, Allah is aware of all that they do. And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and to be mindful of their chastity, and not to display their charms beyond what may be apparent thereof; hence let them draw their veils over their bosoms and do not show their adornments except to their husbands or their fathers or their husbands’ fathers or their sons or their husbands’ sons or their brothers or their brothers’ sons or their sisters’ sons or their women or what their right hands possess or male servants free of sexual desires or those children who never know the private things of women, and do not stamp their feet so that it may show their hidden adornments, and repent towards God collectively O believers so that you may succeed”.

And the tragedy is this: Not even this scandalous revelation would change anything. The government and the police would make a show of this saga for a few weeks and move on to other scandals. Many of the parents who have screamed (pretentiously too) at this would not withdraw into the closets to probe what is happening under their roofs.

But when the next alarm bell sounds, all of us would scream again as if the evils we are planning would go away with such routine.

That statement was the first time Elrufai divulged such confidential information. It's quite obvious that the man was frustrated. If the NSA and his reports have had such intels for a long period, why didn't they take proactive action? Monguno was reportedly a fine intelligence officer but he has terribly failed as NSA
I ask, what will you do if you were in Elrufai's shoes?

JimmySwaggart:


Going by your analysis, can we categorically say that Peter obi is a grassroot politician with reliable grassroot support being an ex-governor himself.

Yes. He has better grassroot support esp in Anambra. In terms of experience governing people, he's way ahead of Osinbajo.

Campaign ad that the people that matter (i.e the masses) might never see. People like Moghalu are just jokers. Nigerian presidency ia one of the toughest jobs. You gotta get used to the system by vying for lower posts e.g governorship or managing big organizations. Moghalu doesn't have such experience.
OBJ and Buhari were former heads of states. Yaradua and GEJ were former governors. Currently, serious contenders to Number 1 seat were former governors. For Osinbajo, not being a former governor will be a big disadvantage to him because he will obviously lack grassroots support structure

I hope it isn't just for show. Let's get Lagos ports decongested. Let have smaller ships going inland up to Lokoja and Baro. It's to our advantage. Our level of trade is still low especially exports

Good operation. I just hope it won't jeopardize the situation of the train hostages

NwaAmaikpe:




I'm really impressed at Nigeria's ingenuity.

We have private owned modular refineries that refine good crude oil products but rather than empower them to supplement the inefficiency of the government owned refineries, they are rather outlawed.

See a locally produced AK-47.
I strongly believe the government should empower local gunsmiths to develop on this technology so as to meet the arms needs of the military.

Oga, get your info right. Nobody outlawed modular refineries. Some are operational while some are on going projects. Just google Waltersmith refinery.
What is outlawed is illegal refineries that use crude distillation in bushes, their raw material being stolen crude oil. They are the ones causing the hazardous air pollution in places like PH. If you want them continue, may be your place is not affected

That's the only way to deal with these miscreants

Veet, but be careful not to allow it at the very entrance of the honey pot which is internal (coz I'm guessing you are a lady).

Veet cleans it very well especially with that scraping plastic that came with it.

Veet is meant for hair on the legs, hands and not pubic hair

I recently purchased an MTN Mifi specifically Huawei MF927U. I have been looking for how I can dial codes like *121# without removing the SIM and inserting in a phone, but I am yet to find a way. My former USB modem used to have that functionality. Please how do I resolve this? Thanks

The problem with Nigeria is Nigerians
