Gensanusi:


The salary is poor

SSFeedsNigeria:
Someone called Nigeria a criminal organization and I felt bad. However, events that are happening in recent times have proven such damning assertions right. Just a few days ago, police authorities stated that anyone with huge amounts or assets they can’t prove how they amassed them, would be prosecuted. Even though I was skeptical about the police holistically carrying it out, I still felt it was a welcome development.

Moments later, news broke out that El Rufai, the diminutive former governor of Kaduna state has floated a start-up where he invested personal funds running into millions of dollars!

The question any sound mind should be asking now is, where did El Rufai get millions of dollars from? Did he win a lottery? Did he create anything that had investors from Silicon Valley pouring in heavy funds?

At least, we can easily verify El Rufai’s work history dating back to the time Obasanjo made him minister of FCT to the time he ruled Kaduna state for 8 years. How much did El Rufai earn during those years?

For someone to easily drop millions dollars for a startup, he most likely has other millions of dollars stacked elsewhere!

Can former governors in other countries, even developed ones like USA or UK throw millions of dollars around in such manner immediately after leaving office?

Does it mean that governors like El Rufai and others are at liberty to steal public funds as much as they want without institutions in Nigeria asking questions? It’s on record that Kaduna state is one of the most indebted states in Nigeria. Did this man help himself with borrowed money?

Can Nigeria ever develop with such massive corruption going on in high places?

Ofodirinwa:


$100 from where? If he's he's the owner he's the majority hold. So at best $55M of state money, and every refinery in Kaduna is failing

Tjra:

There is a difference between Yorubas and Fulanis.

Fulanis don't do social media, so it's very likely most of them never saw those divisive comments. Besides, the harsh reactions during Buhari was directly linked to his body attitude whenever killer herdsmen are at it.

The situation is different now because Yorubas are Tech savvy. They are everywhere from Nairaland to Twitter, etc. The heat generated when to ferocious groups clash won't be funny.

For someone like me, I never attacked Igbos until they started insulting Yorubas because Tinubu won the elections. Infact, I voted Peter Obi in February.

Like OP says, the blame goes to both tribes. And it's unfortunate our children will grow up to continue this if care is not taken.

GanagiBitrus:
NFF should hire a more affordable indigenous coach, & stop subjecting the country to global ridicle.

gidgiddy:


Those who call it an Igbo coup are the same people who never call Murtalas coup a Hausa coup, or call Buhari's coup a Fulani coup

They are the same people who honoured coup plotters like Murtala and Buhari. They named airports after one and put him on the N20 note. They also elected and re-elected the other one President

But the only time they remember that coup is bad is if they can call it Igbo coup

SoNature:
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar expressed discontent with the progress of the American University of Nigeria (AUN), which he established 19 years ago, lamenting its failure to fully realize its potential under current management.

During this year’s Founder’s Day celebrations, Atiku revealed that his primary goal in founding AUN was to contribute to society, not to gain political office.

In his address, titled “AUN in the Age of Socio-Economic Crisis and Emerging Disruptive Technologies,” he indirectly criticized leadership transitions and managerial challenges that hindered the institution’s development.

Despite investing personal funds without seeking financial returns, Atiku emphasized the need for AUN to become self-sustaining and generate surpluses for further development.

He warned of the changing educational landscape, urging institutions to adapt to emerging disruptive technologies and the impact of artificial intelligence on teaching and learning.

Atiku questioned AUN’s preparedness for these changes, emphasizing the importance of addressing challenges in the context of Nigeria’s socio-economic crisis. Despite expressing cautious optimism, he identified a shared “mistaken” philosophy afflicting both AUN and the Nigerian state.

DomPerignon:
1. No EV manufacturer or EV subsidiary of a conventional car manufacturer has ever posted a profit. No, Tesla and the entire Musk operation has never posted a profit since it's inception. Conventional car companies lose money making EVs.

2. EV batteries account for as much as 80-85% of cost of manufacturing EV cars.


3. EV batteries have a shelf life and depreciation in battery life and quality is one slippery slope. Once the batteries go out, it will cost as much as buying a conventional luxury car to have them replaced.

4. EV batteries constantly discharge even when parked and turned off. The batteries require climate control to keep them warm in winter and cool in hot climate. You are not going to escape battery shelf life by keeping the car parked.

5. Manufacturing EV batteries have more environmental footprints than drilling for oil. Those rare earth metals locked in the Congo rainforest need heavy equipment running on so-called fossil fuels to mine. Large swaths of rain forests are depleted to get to those rare earth metals. Huge amounts of water are used in both mining and refining Rare earth metals . The waste waters end up polluting the ecosystem irreparably.

6. EV batteries need power from conventional power plants to charge. Solar panels and wind turbines will not cut it. You need 240volts charging port that will be generated from coal , gas , nuclear powered stations or from Dams.

7. Spent EV batteries are a pain in the ass in disposing off. No one has a clue on how to safely dispose of them. They most likely will end up in land fills. Now imagine the entire planet switches to EVs and imagine how that will be a problem because conventional ICE cars can easily have every component recycled including the engine.

8. You will never see an EV heavy duty truck, trailer .

Lol. Gombe empty desert should celebrate their sparsely populated village without involving Anambra

Whobedatte:
Gombe that does not have a functional nite club
Only one that operates , G-connect has been shut down by the govt due to religious bias and the other one in Tunfure is nothing to write home about .
A regular lounge in Anambra will beat whatever Gombe has when it comes to recreation
A state that Okada still plies the capital and curfew is being imposed daily by 10pm ?

sarkinbauchi:



Shut up you this Igbotic Ignoramus sitting in front of his 2 by 2 shop at Upper Iweka.

Gombe State is the most developed State in the whole North East Geo-political zone of Nigeria. 10x more beautiful than Anambra State.
FYI I've been to Anambra State and Gombe State.

anonymous1759:



What you said about Wike is synonymous to all political parties in their strong holds, what wike did to PDP and LP is that he has been doing to APC in previous elections and LP supporters who were PDP then applauded him , I wonder why they cry wolf now when things went the other direction.

Nigerians needs to criticize evil when it’s evil but that’s not the case here , when it goes your way in Nigeria you call it grace or luck if it turn sour we call it corruption. Wike’s name was accredited to him in 2019 election when he did Abracadabra for PDP in rivers same people who named him are crying today because he’s no longer working for them .

tesppidd:
No,,

His biggest undoing was working for a non challant ingrate like Buhari.

Nobody ever sticks out his neck for Buhari without living to regret it.

Racoon:
I really pity Rotimi Amaechi. APC really showed him shege promax

WorldRichest:


We decide that, we the politicians decide that, not you the keyboard warriors

erniok:


if you ever read the country is up in arms, it means a civil disturbance that has spread the whole country so yes,it means from sokoto to calabar as you posted.

If you read a section of the country, that is when what you wrote is implied as that it is not from sokoto to calabar.

So you can see that teens in USA is very different from most teens in USA meaning that post of yours was spiced with deceit.

I don't need a translator but you my friend, may need help with your skills in the use of English language.

erniok:

You said the teens in US have now taken Osama as their hero. I was expecting to see stats showing state by state to back up your claims not this watery rebuttal. Your statement implies a huge majority of their teenagers are doing so with obvious proofs.

WorldRichest:


You will cry for long. 8 years is a long time to cry. Your biological father too is a Nigerian, why didn't he contest for the Presidency? Can you list his life achievements here, let's see if he qualified to be a cleaner at the Presidency.

2027 is just a formality, Emilokan Tinubu already has 8 years term. 2031 is Shettima/Wike, I hope you can see that we have started the ground work already, our foot soldiers are already working. So there is no way you can catch up with us. We own this game and we have been teaching you even before independence, but you can never learn anything apart from drugs trafficking and baby factory

erniok:

I've read the letter baying for blood. The bolded was what got my attention with the claim that teenagers in US now refer him as a hero. Which of the 50 states have their teens done that.

erniok:


The bolded got me laughing. When proof is requested, you will produce something that no same person can call proof.

MEEVEET:
This bloody socialist government has no business in runing a business

Have you met with importers and exporters? Did they tell you lack of a shipping line is their priority? Or you just assumed

Things local businesses complained about you haven't looked at them

1) make all ports equal where you can import and export anything from any port.... There is no reason pharmaceutical and chemicals must come through apapa

So if I build my pharmaceutical company in port Harcourt I must use apapa to import raw materials I can't use onne in the same city

2) cost of export... According to AFDB PRESIDENT it cost $35k to export 100 tons from Nigeria and $4000 to export same from Ghana


Look into this

Is lack. Of ships a problem? .

FreeStuffsNG:
I thought some people said Isreal will not give in to Hamas.smh

The battle has ended and the next stage is happening inside Israel where the far right politicians and PM Netanyahu will all be sacked if not being assassinated by aggrieved opponents.

Pm Netanyahu has nothing to show for his relentless bombing and killing of defenceless babies and women of Palestine. With likely war crime hanging around his head and the same people he believed he was fighting for now calling for his head, he lost and should by now be regretting coming back to that office by compromising for the far right politicians. His normalization of ties with the Arabs has been frustrated and shredded by Hamas as no Arab country is interested any more.

His investigation at ICC will still proceed regardless of his country's non membership of ICC and arrest warrant issued against him like it was done for President Putin.

All the killings on both sides must be investigated. Netanyahu won a battle but lost a war to Hamas that got what they wanted. Check my signature for free stuffs!

nony43:
The Palestinians Israel held are mostly terrorists while the ones Hamas held are innocent citizens. Israel should thread with caution.

Your Biafran Soldiers Slaughtered the Yoruba Civilians at Ore deliberately!

And that isn’t even half of the Story!!!

Obi Ebbi who was a biafran Soldier confessed in his book “ broken back axle , unspeakable events in biafra “ they killed all the non Igbos along the biafran army’s withdrawals route it in order to prevent information on their biafran army’s Movement from being passed to the Federal Soldiers who were in Pursuit behind them

When the Biafran Soldiers Withdrew from Ore their was a massive bloodbath they Slaughtered every Non Igbo they found on their Withdrawal Route between Ore in Ondo State and Agbor
After the Biafran Army reached Agbor every Non Igbo they found in Agbor was Slaughtered
Peter Obe the Photo Journalist Of Daily Times took a Photograph Of it with both sides of the Road full of dead bodies as far as the eye could see
From Ore to Agbor and inside Agbor Town everywhere was full of the dead Bodies of the.Civilians which the Biafran Army had Slaughtered before Withdrawing

The only ones that managed to Survive were those that fled into the Bush

Ojukwu’s Biafran army Slaughtered all the Hausas they laid their hands on in the Midwest



Gen Gowon prevented the full details from being published in the interest of reconciliation and One Nigeria

Christistruth03:


I don't blame the misguided ill-informed people for trampling on the graves of those who were murdered by the Biafran Army, by protesting in Port Harcourt. I blame Gowon for forbidding accounts of the war being published after the war, but more importantly for not trying war criminals (like Col Ojeh of Degema) within the Biafran Army and holding them accountable for their inhuman and murderous actions during the war. 70 years after World War 2, we are still reminded on a daily basis the atrocities that the Nazi's committed. If Gowon had done what he was morally and duty bound to do, this matter of Biafra would have been put to rest once and for all.
By the way, in May 1968, my uncle (my mother's younger brother) was shot in his Warri street residence in Port Harcourt, his corpse butchered, his flesh sold as Biafra meat in Mile 1 market.

That same day the Nigerian Army opened up and started shelling Port Harcourt, which was ultimately liberated
Are those protesting and the other supporters of "Biafra" aware of these facts??
The war has been over these past 45 years, we are forging on as a country, setting aside our ethnocentric issues. That Ex-Biafrans have been assimilated into all spheres of our society (as they should), without any punishment meted out to the war criminals among them, doesn't give anyone the right to re-write history or bring these painful memories back.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

Gov Charles Chukwuma Soludo firing from all cylinders

Laying of asphalt on 2.4KM Igwe Ezechi Okoye road with a bridge in Ifitedunu, Dunukofia LGA has commenced.

The road has drainage channels on both sides of the road, soil-cement stabilization and stone-base before application of asphalt.

TopBanter:


Lol. Precisely. A clown called Alexbell and many other Igbos who derided the North for decades suddenly became the voice of justice for the region after Obi lost.

I really wish Northern leaders would stop being so heartless and really invest in developing the Human Resources of the North as a way to rapidly accelerate the fortunes and progress of the region.

We all know the hate-filled ethnic group that will be unhappy when that happens I.e the ethnic group that never wish well for others and glorify in wishing misfortune on all Nigerians.
