another hopeless comment meant to create hopelessness in people....let your words edify. How is internet and light cheaper? Cheapest Electricity is $250 - $300 during winter time...that's close to N400,000 a month and internet can be as much as $80 which is about N120,000 for a month of use. You japa to UK...yes you will work but those care jobs are no different from bricklayers or laborers in Nigeria...you feel them in your body true and true...even security jobs. Ask those with the experiences...ask about people that got sick and relocated at mid age, ask about our people in mental institutions, ask about our people with strokes abroad...yet we come online and sell paradise that is not real for average Nigerian ABROAD.

He's in Chile, not US.

If Obi had won, a dollar would be N100 by now and petrol would be selling for at most N80 per liter .

Nothing would have changed substantially. In fact, obidients would have been saying that northerners and SWers are sabotaging him to make him look like a failure.

In developed countries, this will only be making news if the ship was constructed by that country. But no, we can't even construct a fishing boat . How do you feel comfortable celebrating such mundane things as this??

MODIFIED: The media frenzy is not worth it. Africa should grow up and stop allowing "oyigbo" to use their head.

There's no perfect country, party, organization, person anywhere. If Obi creates a new party today, "corrupt people" would still find their way to it and hold big positions.

That is not a problem or shortcomings to them. I have seen many people that has money, married, have kids with good health. What else do you want? Big head, ugliness, wide nose etc all those ones no be issue abeg

To you, they may be no-issue, but it keeps a lot of people awake at night once in a while.

US using the lives of young soldiers to play ping-pong. Some of them are as young as 18. Endless wars... The arms manufacturers are the winners - more contracts running into billions of dollars to supply weapons.

Scholace:
There are millions of people that have it all.

No, it's not true. For some people, the only "comma" in their life is their bad handwriting or the shape of their second child's nose or their own height —for money, they have it in abundance.

US keeps on creating phantom enemies so as to keep their military industry well fed . If Russia joins NATO today, US will name China as the biggest threat to world peace, to justify their $800b defense budget. And if China, Iran and North Korea finally join NATO , US' economy will collapse, because the prosperity and the millions of jobs created through military industry will be wiped out.

Oghene86:
Don't mind the idiot, it's ok we are going to charge what's been charged abroad since you want us to collect rent monthly. A single room in the UK with shared toilets and kitchen is £500 pounds per month, that's N875,000 per month, so landlords will now charge for a month.

3 bedroom flat in the US goes for $2500 per month, that will be N3,600,000 per month

So, is minimum wage in the UK or US also N30,000??

As long as they're domiciled in their home states of Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Jigawa, etc, then there's no cause for alarm. At least Amotekun vigilante , for example, are not in the north, SE or SS.

EdoGovernor2024:
Verify from where? Tell us the NET worth of Asue Ighodalo and the NET worth of Senator Monday Okpebholo. Then we can compare.

Is Obaseki also RICHER than President Tinubu and Senator Adams Oshiomhole?

Is Edo State Government RICHER than the Federal Government of Nigeria under the control of APC?

How old are you? What concerns the resources of Nigeria with Edo election??

Politicians shouldn't be mentioning prayers; do the job you have been voted in for. You can't use our brains. You people didn't get to that position through prayers neither are you pastors.

Parachoko:
Is the Lagos State Govt or the FG Forcing Organisations to site their HQ in Lagos State?

FG is not, so the same FG should use its discretion to spread development across the country by intentionally encouraging the decentralization of both public and private enterprise presence, as it's done in developed countries. That's why it's almost difficult to see any major difference between New York and California or Texas or Florida, etc, because economic activities are not concentrated in NY and DC, like we have in Nigeria. Or you think the American govt just sat back and those things happened??

Gossip thread

What has increasing or not increasing house rent got to do with being nice??

Why's Nairaland now censoring Twitter links? How can one copy a story from Facebook or Twitter without referencing the source? This envy is disgusting.

Abee79:
Approaching the conversation with empathy and concern for her well-being is key. You could express your love and care for her health, highlighting the importance of a balanced diet. Share information about the potential health risks associated with excessive consumption of red meat and processed foods like Indomie.

Suggest healthier alternatives or modifications to her current diet, such as incorporating more vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Emphasize the benefits of a well-balanced and nutritious diet for long-term health. Encourage her to consider small, gradual changes rather than a drastic overhaul.

Additionally, propose engaging in activities together that promote a healthy lifestyle, like going for walks or preparing nutritious meals together. Make it a collaborative effort rather than a directive, and be patient as habits take time to change.

Good luck 🤞

We Want A NIGERIAN On The MOON By 2040, Latest

India got independence in 1947, so they are a bit ahead of us in terms of technology, hence their recent moon landing.

What has the date you got independence have to do with development?? Did Black South Africans not get independence in 1990s, but are still a million miles ahead of us who got ours in 1960? Or were you told the European colonialists prevent the countries they're overlording from developing while they are there?? See what UK did in Hong Kong that they handed over in 1999 - they turned it to a world financial centre.

Why are they always gifting him cows on his birthday even when he doesn't stay in Nigeria?? P

Every developed country has research and manufacturing as its base. But here in Nigeria, we wait for them to do research and discovery and manufacturing and then pack scarce millions and billions of dollars yearly to go and buy the products from them.

Our biggest problem is lack of layout. We allow people to build and scatter houses anyhow.

spencekat:
Electoral Act amendment did not accomodate it then.

No, it is their corruption that is not accommodating it.

When was the last time Supreme Court of Technicalities overturn any governor's election?? Maybe the lone cases of Zamfara and Bayelsa (Bayelsa can even be said to be the handiwork of Mary Odili).
What the SC is doing is empowering politicians to rig as much as they like or flout pre-election rules, knowing that at the end, they'll escape it under some non-existent technicalities.

Dele Momodu has made a fortune for himself. He's a silent billionaire.

Ironbull:
Then simply ask the OP to provide more details than just commenting on incompleted article or politically manipulated article to either gathr traffics for bloggers or for name callings intention.

Then why did you ask the guy if he read it as if the article provided any details and the guy still chose to say it was a policy somersault??

As it stands now, there's actually no shred of party democracy in Nigeria. That's the unfortunate truth. During national convention, they force other candidates to support a single person and then ratify him as the national chairman, because they're afraid a candidate the godfathers would not be able to control could win. So where's the democracy there??

Ironbull:
Did you read the article at all?

There was no reason provided in the article for the reversal, so what do you mean by "did you read the article at all?" ?

These are two of the beliefs currently destroying the western world today. That's why they say people are free to marry someone of same sex, children can do surgery to change their gender, parents shouldn't flog their children, etc. In fact, according to such philosophy, almost anything is allowable as long as it doesn't hurt another person. It's a world of fantasy, because the consequences that over the top liberalism is presently having on such places are crystal clear.

Twenty five million naira for forms that did not cost up to ₦2,000 to print?? One person should buy it and then photocopy and give others .

Tallesty1:
Point 1. When the homeowner climbs the fence, the visitor will climb the roof. Once you break a boundary, you lose control of how far and quickly others can escalate it.

2. When a wife doesn't respect her husband, it will be difficult for her kids to respect him.

3. When Africans treat each other well and actively contribute to the development of their own countries, there would be fewer reasons for individuals to seek opportunities elsewhere. Less see finish brings more respect.

And finally, It's not healthy for you and your siblings to fight a lot; you are adults and capable of finding more constructive ways to communicate and get along.

So because Americans kill themselves through guns, Nigerians should invade America and also start shooting them??

Beautiful buildings, but as usual with Nigeria, poooooor building alignment. See jaga jaga arrangement. Everybody just buys land and build to face any direction he/she wants; no guideline or enforcement from the government.

The ones produced in Nigeria are not of high quality for trash to comfortably STAY, dance and relax in . They should budget millions of dollars to import from China. This is the irony of Nigeria/Africa of today.
