Of course, every sane and rational thinking person of conscience in Nigeria today fully knows that solemn undeniable truth. Now, every facet of our national life feels it.

The fact remains that the process is not even the wahala but the ripple effects - abysmal deteriorating levels of bad governance, incursion of politically unfits criminals into govt and bastardization of judicial, constitutional and democratic processes which adversely affects a nation .

Your stinct in Rivers will go down in history as one of the worst illegality to unfortunately befell this nation. History will make reference to this when it will be the turn of Lagos in future time to come. One bad turn deserves another. Fingers crossed!

Nyesom Wike is only confusing and damning himself whatever and wherever his political divide @present. To every action good or bad there is an equal and opposite reaction. Let him enjoy whatever while its lasts.

Yes! However, Nasir El-Rufai is the most dangerous person Nigeria should be wary of. The people who foist a catastrophe of Tinubu's kind despite knowing his antecedents are the most dangerous people.

The chicken has come home to roost, but the Buhari that led to it is no where to be found. God rest the souls of those lost.

Hospitals - Zero.
Food security - Zero.
Fuel subsidy savings - Zero.
Good governance - Zero
Electricity supply - Zero.
Employment - Zero.

The talk should be when will Mahamud Yakubu be heading to jail for the criminality of the 2023 election in order to set a standard for who comes in next.

Brendaniel:
This is the Nigeria those still supporting Tinubu have always wanted

Hehehe! Terrible country being administered by terrible people.

Went for an interview in the morning.
The HR personnel checked my documents and refused to sign them so I can proceed to my pannel. He insisted that based on what he is seeing, I was not qualified. I insisted that I was qualified and requested to speak to his boss. He refused. I equally refused to leave the venue till around 6 pm before his boss came around.

I met him and explained the situation. He reviewed my documents and was very furious at the HR rep for denying me the opportunity as he wasn't his job to validate based on his assumptions. He insisted that my documents were perfect and met all requirements. He signed them and my interview was rescheduled for the next day.

The panelists apologized to me for the overzealous behavior of the HR rep and we proceeded with the interview. Ladies and gentlemen, I got the job.

I finished my SSCE in july 2013, and my parents enrolled me in tailorshop a week after. I learnt tailoring and fashion designing for a year, then I wrote jamb in 2014 and would later get admitted to study computer science in the Lagos State Polytechnic, ikorodu. 😔

PLS READ👇.
During my National Diploma days in Laspotech, I would sew for my fellow students and lecturers, the then Rector of the polytechnic, Mr Sogunro, The then ASUP chairman were my clients among many others. In 2016, when I finished my National Diploma course, having graduated as the best student in my class with a DISTINCTION credit, I decided to sit for JAMB again and further my education in a university, this was how I got into the Lagos State University in 2016.

I started sewing for students and other customers that I had gathered while I was still in LASPOTECH. The business wasn't moving so I switched to laundry on campus then, I was my fellow students clothes for as low as 50 naira, THIS WAS IN 2017. It was in my 200LEVEL second semester that I met a client whom I had made clothes for him and his family, I told him my vision and where I see my business in 10 years if he invest in me, he eventually loaned me 1500,000naira then, this was in 2018.

I took part of the money to rent my first shop in festac town and got one more manual sewing machine with the rest of the money, he had told me to pay the money back every month over  a period of 12 months and I agreed but I paid the money back in 6 months.

I started my shop in festac town around 2018 ending with just two machines, then I was the only one that was sewing then. I do sleep inside the shop then as I couldn’t afford to rent an apartment then because I needed to payback the man that borrow me money to start the shop. I lost the humbling pictures of the state of the shop as at then, I would have shared.

I took these pics in August 2020, and sent them to the man that borrowed me the 500k then, to appreciate him and also show him my progress so far, that I have now beautified the shop a little in my capacity and now have a tailor that works for me.

Lo and behold, I still had my machines inside this shop as at this 2020, although, I now have about 4 machines then, but the monthly IGR had increased because of the new look of the shop. Exactly a year later, Allah sent someone to me again that borrowed me 4 million naira again. Someone I met on this same app, VALHALLA, (late now😭). he said I should not add one kobo to it as Interest and payback 330k every month till I pay back. I met up and paid up every month without defaulting. Proof below 🙏.

This expansion happened then because my clientele base was already large and I needed to get more machines and more tailors, so that we can meet up with the orders. The shop wouldn't accommodate us, so I went ahead to rent a two bedroom flat in the same festac.

So from the 4 million naira loan, I got a two bedroom flat in the same festac town and got 4 more machines, my machines became 8 in total. This time I didn’t take a loan, I used my
Savings. Because of the new look of the showroom, I began to get more clothes again and I needed to get more tailors and more machines on board but there’s no more space 😞.
In December 2023, we had to stop collecting jobs as at November ending, the orders were coming in overwhelmingly and I don't have the number of tailors to wrestle the jobs, I felt so bad and unaccomplished, i was down mentally. A lot of my clients expressed their disappointment and all, and I said to myself that I couldn't continue this way. I must expand again and as asap. I have gathered a lot of clout for my business and now I can't meet up jobs because there is no enough facility 😭.

Fast forward to January 1st, 2024, I paid 5m to acquire a new place in ago palace way, a bigger place I will use for both workshop and showroom at the same time. I was able to gather this #4M between October, November and December, after the renovation of the Festac showroom. The new place I paid for, my plan is to move my workshop here permanently, then I use the front as the showroom while keeping the Festac town showroom too.

I have invested all my entire savings in keying down this place, now I need about 20million naira to set it up. The rent is reading already and also things are getting more expensive everyday 😭😭 This new level in my business will increase my monthly IGR for sure.

Now, this is where I need you all guys. I'm searching for investors!!! Please the least support you can give me now is to help me retweet this post widely. I have used all my money to rent the place😭😭. I needs funds to set up the showroom and also get more sewing machines. The new place is in the same building as @LotusBank ago Palace way branch.

After Medical school, i moved back in with my parents. Lived with them for 7 more years until I was almost 30 years.

Didn’t buy a Car. Worked several jobs, sometimes 2 jobs at the same time. Saved enough to write exams & move to the UK.
6 months salary in the UK was more than all my 7 years salary in Nigeria COMBINED.

When Eno Udoh's husband died in 1974, she refused advice to sell off his electronics business and took over the company with little experience at 21.

She inherited an empty bank account but in four years, she grew the business from a starting capital of ₦30,000 to ₦300,000.

Chai! Openly celebrating abomination? What is wrong with this evil generation sef?

Of course! If you declare yourself enemy of Israel, then you are in for it. Smoke out the terrorists.

Lies! No equity or justice. It equate 1 man to 10 women and full of injustice because of all it tolerates. Go read "WHO IS THIS ALLAH"? by Moshey to get yourself well educated

Go to LUTH and other teaching hospitals across this nation to witness the rot in our healthcare sector alone. Ekweremadu refused to take his ailing daughter to the renal unit of UNTH but was ready to go to UK hospital even harvesting the organ of an alleged minor without consent.

Buhari and Tinubu kept insulting the sensibility of the dying citizens of this nation in going to seek healthcare in cosy foreign hospitals. Now the challenges back home ranges fom the abysmal healthcare workforce, to dilapidated structural facilities( case of the Kebbi Hospital) , to non- functional equipments among many ills.

Now the JAPA syndrome have made things worse. Yet the supporters of this irredeemably useless govt kept justifying the pain they are inflicting on our psyche and national life.

They enjoyed Nigeria when it was better but made it worst when they came on board. Terribly useless and wicked leaders ever seen in a continent

helinues:
Troublesome Sowore. With all your attacking of the president, that won't make Nigerians to vote for you. Then why not give it a rest

Abeg rest. You and your demigod does not deserves any pity. Not after all the APC did to Goodluck Jonathan in 2012-14 using the same Omoyele Sowore. Karma does not forgets or forgives.

The DSS has increasingly became useless with its core mandate but becoming a handy instrument of state oppression, suppression and repression. So sad! Too bad!

Chai! What? Pilots testing positive to alcohol that beclouds sound sense of judgement in an inheritantly unforgiving world like aviation?

They know the professional etiquette of this noble profession but choose to act contrary. What if the mishap goes beyond a runway overshot? Abeg delicense these potential killers fast.

Of course, you can see how these elitists tell incredible barefaced lies just for political psycophancy and propaganda.

Meanwhile those this woman knows that life has became more increasingly difficult for street cleaners in today's Nigeria under her globe-trotting husband?

The case of that elderly woman always coming out with her 15-years old daughter @5am to sweep Lagos roads with the poor girl doing domestic chores for others around is one of the many pathetic cases.

Way to go; the politicians should be afraid of the people and not vice versa. There is no political power that can stop the willful resolve of a determined people again injustice, oppression, suppression and repression of these evil leaders. A country will also witness same toom

Hypocrisy @ work. What was Osinbajo thinking when the lawless govt he and Buhari operated was spurning our constitution, disregarding court orders and destroying democratic institutions with utter scorn, spurn and impunity?

Imagine! So the VIPs needs protection while the common man can die haplessly for all that the NPF cares. This is still affirming that the corruption of these elites and VIPS often got the police supporting it.

Only God knows what direction this nation is going. Ndi APA ke way unu?

That’s the thing about standing with evil, you don’t escape it, you only wait your turn. "....These U-turns are not about ideological growth or political evolution — they are about relevance and self-preservation. None of the men has issued a proper public retraction or apology for their previous statements.

They simply moved on as if Nigerians were not paying attention. Their shift from scathing critique to sycophantic praise reveals the rot at the heart of Nigerian politics: a transactional culture where access to power matters more than integrity, and where public figures flip loyalties with no regard for public trust.

In most mature democracies, such about-faces would be accompanied by reflection, remorse, or accountability. In Nigeria, they come with press conferences, media rounds, and strategic selfies.

This is really terribly hypocritical of anyone in this category especially the present day so call activists and emergency lovers of Nigeria

This is an abominable thing to do. The sanctity of marriage is not being respected

DomPerignon:
How did Ojukwu become a 4 star General ? How did Ironsi get promoted ahead of his senior and appointed as Head of the Army by Zik?

Tafa Balewa promoted Ironsi Major General on recommendation of the departing Major General Everady the out going GOC. Hatred no go kill you

The purpose of this thread in the bolded. You always do this every time. You come up with a topic as if you want to educate but your intent is always about the obvious.

This is history! You can't deny it. Your past makes your present and your present makes your future. The atrocious and treasonable activities of coupists are not secret.
