Don't be surprised if Atiku and PDP win next year Atiku has the funds to match APC's rigging and he is also loved by educated people in the South West. All the other PDP big guns will rally round Atiku and deploy their resources to help him record substantial votes in their respective States and Regions. Unless the APC uses INEC and State Security Services to win the elections, Buhari will lose next year.

The 'Osun Situation' will repeat itself in 2019. SDP, ANN, ADP and other smaller Parties will take away votes from the APC and PDP in the Presidential elections , thereby creating a scenario of a possible rerun. PDP needs to be wiser this time around and ensure they are not rigged out by APC or forcibly made to lose an election they won .

On a serious note, I thank God for sparing the guy.

Hmn, very interesting. Please, spend your time wisely. Watch documentaries on Agriculture in other parts of Africa and the World at large. Read extensively on the internet about how you can be a successful farmer or businessman/businesswoman. Don't waste your data on Nigerian Politics and our Celebrities, especially Ladies that don't have anything to talk about but their bodies. Thanks.

I was having a discussion with my Tanzanian colleague the other day about Africans migrating to Europe and North America. We both appreciate the good sides of living in Europe and North America, but we made these observations.

1. You are never good enough in the eyes of many white people. They hardly respect you if you are made their boss and you are a black man or black woman.

2. You will pay bills till you grow into your late 60's and 70's and if you default on your Mortgage, your house will be taken from you, irrespective of the monies you have paid earlier on.

3. You will pay water bills for life in Europe and USA, Canada etc but if you dig your own borehole in Nigeria, the water is yours and you don't have to pay for it.

4. Your kids don't belong to you in the white man's countries. They belong to the Government. You can't punish your kids anyhow for any offences they might have committed. The Police will come banging on your door if you do that .

5. Nigerian women change into Monsters as soon as they enter Canada, USA, UK etc with you. They start claiming equal rights with you after some Months and you will soon see their true character .

6. Many Africans focus on white collar jobs in Europe, USA, Canada, Australia etc while being blind to the opportunities that lie in jobs they consider as being dirty or beneath their status. My Tanzanian friend wondered why many Africans are not looking into being tradesmen like Carpenters, Painters, Plumbers. Gas Engineers, Cleaning Business Owners etc in the white man's countries. He noted that these 'dirty' industries are gold mines.

7. Black People are the targets of immigration policies in the white man's land.

8. Racism is ingrained in the white man's blood. He might like you but he still believes you are inferior to him. And he will let you know this in different ways.

9. Even though they live in advanced nations, Africans still long for their countries of Origin and follow events in their native countries everyday.

10. Lastly, we both agreed that in the long run, Africans should man up and fix their Continent. Cheers.

All this noise for Politicians who will end up not taking care of the real needs of the people. Ambode and Tinubu will later end their fight and go on to enjoy their loot. Sanwo-Olu will come in to make more money for Tinubu and also feather his own nest. What will happen to Lagosians and their families? All these Politicians are ensuring that their future generations of their families will be well taken care of. You are here being used as pawns in their quarrels. You don't have to thank Ambode for building bridges and building roads. It is his obligation as a Governor to do that. He is not using his personal money to build the infrastructure of Lagos State. He is using your tax money and oil money ( which belongs to you ) to do these things. To me, Sanwo-Olu won't surpass the achievements of Fashola and he might not be a good Governor at the end of the day. Fashola came close to Jakande in my rankings of the best Governors of Lagos State. Cheers.

Tinubu should realize that if Ambode loses the Primaries tomorrow and defects to another Party ( AD, ADP or SDP ), APC and the Sanwo guy will lose the Governorship elections in 2019. Ambode will get sympathy votes and the PDP might actually win the election. Personally, I feel Ambode should join ADP or SDP and test his popularity with Lagosians at the ballot box. Many Lagosians are already seeing Tinubu as a selfish man. I feel it is time for Lagos State to be liberated from a dominant political party.

At the end of the day, it is Lagosians and people who live and do business in Lagos State that are going to lose. Ambode has made enough money that will last him a lifetime, if he invests his money well. Tinubu is a Billionaire in Dollars and Pounds. Take that from me . Tell me, what has the Lagos State Government actually done for you? How are you enjoying governance under AD, ACN and APC in Lagos State? In your neighbourhood, do you have a Public Library there? How motorable are the roads in your area? A man has to speak out when he has to do that. Let Ambode fight and if he loses, let him take his chances with another Political party, not necessarily PDP. Cheers.

Hmn. I like Ambode's spirit at the moment. A Man has to fight when it is time to fight. Tell me exactly, how Tinubu's godfatherism has benefited the people who reside in Lagos State? Is Lagos State truly developed as these politicians claim? It is not about Roads and Bridges alone o. Yes, BRT and the new Buses are cool, but there is so much more that has not been done in Lagos State. The inner suburbs of Lagos State are looking very bad. Why can't our leaders find new ways of making roads that will last longer? Does Lagos State have Recycling Centers that will turn waste in Lagos State into Cash? Talking about electricity, can't the Governors in Lagos build Facilities that can convert Waste and Rubbish into energy? The things that will really touch the lives of Lagosians and Lagos Residents have not been done

What about healthcare in Lagos State? No innovation at all. How do public schools in Lagos State look like? Has money been earmarked to improve the facilities in public secondary schools in Lagos? So many things that have not been done from 1999 in Lagos State. Tinubu, Fashola tried. Ambode is trying too, but there has to be a comprehensive development plan for Lagos that will really touch the lives of people living there.

Pure grit. Keep soaring girls.

Babes with them fresh skin.

These ones cannot be home based. The reason they dont have Caro White disfigured skin like Nigerian women.

Hmn. There are Nigerian ladies who are fit and have fresh skin and they live in Nigeria. There is one home based player in the team. Her name is Nkechi Akashili. There are dark skinned ladies in this D'tigress team- Promise Amakamura, Sarah Ogoke etc. If you feed well in Nigeria and exercise properly, you won't look bad. Ignorance isnot a good thing. You can live in Nigeria, earn a medium salary and look good.

I am still awake at this time. I love my Country


I am monitoring the Osun elections. I bleed green blood.

If PDP loses in Osun State today, it is because the SDP and Omisore decided to contest the Gubernatorial elections. All these SDP votes should have gone to the PDP.

Chai From the results I have seen so far on nairaland, it seems SDP and Omisore are destroying PDP's chances of winning the Governorship election in Osun State. SDP is taking a lot of votes away from PDP . I feel APC might just win today.

Self Employment is good. However, you need to be sure of what you intend to do after quitting your job. The OP's experience is a bit different, but generally it is not safe to leave your current job, without having some money to fall back on. It is good to save up at least the equivalent of your Salary for a year before jumping into entrepreneurship. Op, I wish you the best in your new endeavor. Cheers.

Greed is creating a lot of problems in Nigeria. Nigerian businessmen will always find a way to justify the consistent increase in the prices of their products, even when they have alternative routes they can take to ensure stability in prices. Many Bakery Owners in Nigeria are not well educated people or they are not exposed enough to see that there are alternatives to Wheat when it comes to making bread. We have not researched on Millet and Sorghum to see if they can be a suitable replacement for wheat. I also want to believe that there are different brands of flour in the open market with different prices. Bakeries buy flour and other baking ingredients wholesale, so bakers have to find a way to make bread affordable to Nigerians and also make their own profit. In the long run, they will sell more bread and make profits as the years roll by. Cheers.

This is a very nice post. Kudos to the OP .

czarina:
80s? Guys don old o

I actually started seeing the soldiers inside fake chinchin and gift packs in the 2000s.
never new they've always been around.

Are you serious ? I thought these Cowboy and Indian Warrior toys did not exist in Nigeria after the early 90's. So they were still around in the 2000's ? Jesus is Lord o. But I did not see them being sold in shops in the 2000's. In the 2000'a, I was already attending University and actually graduated in 2005. These Cowboys and Indians warrior toys arrived in Nigeria in the late 70's and were very popular in the 80's.

Tozara:


There were elements like you in my class back then. But they weren't as lucky as you.

You would make away with my toy and claim ownership? Ehn, kini?

You wouldn't do it again.

Ha You are very funny. Yes, people had to buy these Cowboy and Indian Toys. Are you serious that you picked them from the ground ? I never saw any on the ground o. I had to buy them from women who sold them in Shops and in Kantas. I was really fascinated with them and would act my own Movies with them on a table on the Verandah of our house. My younger siblings had theirs too. All the youngsters in my area were into collecting these Cowboy and Indians Warriors toys. We also fought each other over their ownership, especially with some boys in my Primary School. Memories .

Tozara:
You mean these things were around in the 80's! Wow.

I played with MILLIONS () of them in the early 2000's. We used to compete over whom had the largest collection of them. So, the richer, the better.

I wasted so much money on those things. So much money.

Yes, Bruv. These Cowboy and Indian Soldiers toys on horses were around in the 80's They were very popular in Nigeria then. They were sold by women that sold stuff in 'Kantas' ( Those trading tables that had desks and were placed near the Streets ). They were also sold in shops and by Mallams who doubled as security guards and had kiosks outside people's homes. I had many of them too, though quite a few of them were destroyed by our dog called Whisky. I would come back from school and whisky would have chewed some of them to pieces. Very naughty dog like that . The Green Army soldiers were also popular, but many of my friends had these Cowboys and Indians toys and we competed with each other in class, on who had the best squad of soldiers. Memories .

pacino26:
Those days we had what I term "creative imagination/visualization". We made things up, plan, fought and won battles in our head. It was all fun. I think they may get fascinated with these types of we choose to play with them. I think the parents of today see the PC/Phone games as easy escape from the too energetic kids.

Got some boys coming up. The last set of toys didn't make it into the second week. Tyres and occupants all gone, I de wait for those NL auto dealers that buys scrap cars to make me an offer.

Thanks. I have this feeling that retro toys are going to be a big hit if we introduce them to our Children. Retro toys like the Commando Plastic Soldiers and these Cowboy and Indian Soldiers toys . These retro toys are still selling in Europe, North America and Asia. Children of nowadays in Nigeria are not that creative because everything is now placed into Computers or Phones, which is not a good thing in the long run. Yes, you are right with your observation.

pacino26:
You forgot to add the green commandoes Sweet old days.

Thanks, My Brother. I remember the Green Commandoes. They were plastic soldiers. I bought them too, but I had more of these Cowboy and Indian Soldiers toys. I was always buying them. Do you think children nowadays will be fascinated with the Cowboy and Indian soldier toys? What do you think? I don't want to believe our kids are only interested in Computer games.

dimexy247:
I don’t have time for nonsense.

Bro, you don't have to comment on the post if you don't like the topic. There is no point rubbishing someone's else post, okay

It is a free world. Move on to other threads. Live and let's live. Cheers.

I played with these Cowboys and Indian Toys when I was in Primary School in the 80's. I used to buy them for 30 kobo to 50 kobo per piece then from those women that sold household goods in their Shops . I had loads of them and I played with them by placing them on a table on our verandah and banging on the table softly to make them move. I considered the ones that fell down dead in the heat of battle. Did you play with these Cowboy and Indian warriors and soldiers toys too? What are your memories about them ?

I am just having memories of my childhood.

Many of Our celebrities are not as wealthy as you think. Many of them are swimming in debts and live very fake lives. The ones that have real money and sustainable wealth among them live low profile lives. These are the celebrities that own Companies and Shopping Malls and yet you hardly see them on the TV or being blogged about all the time.

WORDWORLD:
But mostly lacking in fertile souls.

You are right to an extent, My Brother. I have observed that not too many people think deeply in Nigeria. People find it difficult to think out of the box. Laziness also contributes to the very slow pace of development in Nigeria. Cheers.
