ExudeLoveToAll:Corruption does not allow the brain work properly, that is the problem. Your head is filled with greed and you throw caution to the wind. If it was a proper deal you will definitely have all your Tees crossed. |
Different mindset. Here we repair a sixty year old bridge and adorn it with posters of the President as a national achievement....just different mentality. |
At least we all know where they are headed so it is up to the Nigerian to decide between now and election time whether to be fodder for more white elephants or to be free to chart his or her own course. Nigeria is absolutely predictable. Greed just cannot hide. |
I think I have told you. That to expect any significant improvement in the standards of living and the quality of life as a Nigerian living in Nigeria under this government is just wishful thinking. They have delivered ALL THEY CAN as a government. Mr. Yari is just preparing your minds to face that fact. Second terms you have been told severally is 'for them'. To settle scores, reward loyalty and build political egg nests. |
That is a terrible thing to do as a soldier. It is one thing to betray your country, another to betray your Commander-in-Chief.....but to betray your comrades in arms and by that have them killed is just terrible. It is inexcusable and outright evil. Because not everyone who died by your hands believed in the cause of the war. Some may have been too scared or i'll opportuned to defect or desert and now you have had them killed. What if someone else did the same thing before you made up your mind and you were dead as a result.... Better hide because at some point your new hosts will grow suspicious of you as a dangerous turn-coat. Who knows, you might even be a mole in the Ukrainian ranks....a costly double agent that has used blood sacrifice to penetrate deep into the Ukrainian security and military infrastructure. |
bikefab:Our dwelling in the doldrums, our failure to grow and develop manifests in many ways including this, so that doubters and so called patriots can visualize just how backward this country is and has become. How we are sprinting fir the basement with all.glee. When will this country ever wake up to the dawning of greatness. |
What about East Asia, and the great clubs of the J-league and J-league. |
Nigeria badly, badly, badly needs a legit credit rating agency to put a leash on this pandemic of debt. Like government, like citizen, highly irresponsible entities. |
What kind of crass talk is that. Does it include those who don't want anything to do with politics and politicians....who just want to live a decent, quiet life, free of government and it's serial failures.... When the politician goes beyond normal reasoning and wants to control your life via your pocket and how you manage your resources know that the chains of slavery are well and truly real. |
Obaofaba:So why can't this government stop 'mortgaging' by placing a moratorium on debt so that it too can live within its means.... If a government that left almost twelve years ago is to be blamed for everything or where we are today, what has this party that has been in government ever since then been able to do apart from making it worse. Does it look to you that this government is fiscally responsible....the only thing it has cut down is social services, every other burden on the public is full steam ahead, has multiplied several times over. |
A nation that cannot solve it's problems but comtinues.to accept the decay because of sentiment instead of getting the right people.rhat know how to find solution to things. What more can I say other than RIP today and RIP in advance for the next few days to come. Such has been the 20 year old experience. |
delpee:Are you not tired of establishment people that cannot see beyond the status quo, recycled people that have ruined his country.... Can't you see that the trajectory of Nigeria requires brand new ways and means to get out of the rut. This is almost four years of this administration and all the achievement is talk. What will make the eight years any better... And by the way, all qualitative leadership needs to have is a listening ear and a responsive disposition towards the people to succeed. Democracy works well when all of us make the decisions, leadership only summarizes and implements on our behalf. That is proper government. Everything is open for debate, every move is voted for. If in your little business all your employees are yes men and women, you will not make progress. That is the bane of the Nigerian society. That Mr President knows it all. |
If you cannot prevail on your government to fight inflation them just enjoy your poverty in peace. Complaining is not a strategy to a better life. If any business owner is not getting appropriate returns from his management team, he either sacks them all or closes down the business. |
Kobojunkie:But it is also diesel that tanks, missile carriers, troop transporters and logistics trucking uses. Moreover the war, the defence of Ukraine is not in his hands alone. If his country wanted another way out they will have removed him as leader. It is just a pity that the world has chosen to fight and die over negotiations towards peace with scant considerations for the innocent and vulnerable. And like I will always say about these matters out of an abundance of historical evidence, most of the things people fight for, fight over, and die needlessly because will still invariably happen. Just two brief examples. Jerusalem still fell to the Muslim invaders despite the terrible wars of the Crusades. Germany's anger over reparations demanded from the rest of Europe together with stiff sanctions on its defence after world war one opened the door for Hitler and world war two. After the second war, rather than let Germany rot Europe and the US decided to rebuild it, to stabilize and prosper it. What they should have done the first time. Today Germany is the largest economy in Europe, was once the fourth largest in the world by negotiations, not war and today is the biggest backer of Ukraine. Tomorrow despite it all, Iran will acquire nuclear weapons, the Islamic revolution will crumble and Iran will become a democracy, Putin will be gone, democracy restored to Russia and those territories annexed will hold referendums on what country to belong to and by any chance if Ukraine is a better deal, will return by themselves. Such is he way of the world, needless tragedies for things that will invariably happen after the facts. |
Three billion.....ha... Are insurgents building their own power grid? |
omooba969:I do. It is Premier League tradition. Teams figure other teams out. That is why tactics have to evolve together with the right players to execute them. I am not too sure Arteta is evolving enough to stay ahead. The struggles early in the season is a warning signal. |
I think Arteta should play Merino a bit more. Give him a run of half a dozen games or so to freshen up the team play. It has become too one dimensional and teams are beginning to figure out the forward play. |
omooba969:Your team cannot go throughout the season playing like this. "One to the Arsenal" is 90's football.... ![]() Do City look like dropping points with the imperious way they play. |
Arsenal scores....the Gunners escape... ![]() |
ajalawole:What do you understand by the phrase 'fallen off' or did I write in Italian.. |
Arsenal is really poor today and average over the season so far. In this form they will not defend their crown and come no where near the Champions league final. Their okay is just too slow and tedious.,.over complicated. |
Eze's game is not working at all in the Gunners team play. Form has fallen off from last season. |
Good one from Saka aka low budget Lamine Yamal.... ![]() |
What in the world happened to Martin Zubimendi... |
So it is only Ipswich United can defeat in the Premiership....how the mighty have been humbled. The Ferguson era is long forgotten. A generation of soccer fans will soon look at United the same way we used to look at Nothingham Forest, Hamburg and Sampdoria. |
They both say down at Mama Put to chow to order for swallow and a dish of delicious draw soup....story of the Red Devils so far this season. |
Just so sorry for Bruno Fernandez. Great player in United, but at the wrong-est period in their history. Whether that makes him a club legend is a debate for another day. |
I don't see how all.this benefits the average Nigeria who just wants to live a decent life free of anything called government that adds no practical value to it. |
It has to do with the season. You know citrus fruits require plenty of sunlight to convert the glucose in the tree into sucrose for the fruits. And as you know we have just gone through our own 'winter', that is rainy/cloudy season in the tropics. You won't get tasty oranges now. |
When they leave your rally with the stipends you bribe them with, they return home to fave the realities of hunger, sickness and near destitution. |
Patnome:At what point will Liverpool start expecting title winning performances. Because right now they are well off top four pace. |
Barcola, good winger, poor striker, little composure. |
, a simple video evidence would have crush all his testimonies in court.
