The so called group just displayed their ignorance to the entire world

So they don't know that failed subjects are not recorded on WAEC certificates.



Chai, comments here also shows that many people here do not know too...

It is easier to build boys than to mend men. This will be more effective than what our youth corpers are exposed to at their NYSC orientation camp. Every child needs to learn self defence...it would be a great development in our education sector.

Is he the one that wrote the article?

Can't you see the source right up there?

He's just a messenger. Calling it propaganda is stupid because the source of the news is a western news outlet.

When Arewa people are ready they will end the insecurity themselves.


Their people should allow their politicians to be using their lives to play politics.

Didn't you watch the video
She's clearly showing signs of withdrawal
She should be in rehab

I'm sure those names are fictitious. Nigerians deserve to watch the prosecution of terrorists.

So where is the brigade commander,
Brig-Gen. Braimoh?

I won't believe if someone had told me 15 years ago that this is what our military will be reduced to

1. One-time phone number change

Under the new rules, customers can now change the phone number linked to their BVN only once in their lifetime. The policy targets rising cases of SIM-swap fraud, where criminals take over phone numbers to gain access to bank accounts.

Customers are therefore advised to link their BVN to a secure, long-term phone number—preferably one already tied to their National Identification Number (NIN).

This rule is nonsense. As much as it makes sense, it is not a long term thinking. We do not have permanent phone numbers. The number tied to my NIN can expire. People can and should have the right to change numbers any number of times they want. Nigeria should decide whether they are using NIN or not. A phone number should not be a personal identifiable number, it is even dangerous. The other time Minister of Interior under Buhari said no passport without NIN. Now, CBN wants to limit your BVN with NIN and OTPhone number. Let's stop making life more difficult for the average Nigerian.

Edit: A phone number is not an identity number and should never be tied to an identity. It is something you have, not something you are. There is no law that insists you must have a phone number for your bank account.

Releasing names does not do jack doodoo.
Prosecute them and send them to the great beyond.

By the way, how do we know that this list is authentic and not just randomly generated names? Proof dey?

Used to go to bookshops to leaf through books and get the smell of freshly painted texts!

Abiola Bookshops near Unilag, Unilag bookshop, Odusote bookshops, CSS bookshop, Exam Success at Palmgrove.

There was this one at Ilupeju with an American name I can't remember now.

In the 90s, rice wasn’t a common food and stood as a food of affluent cos many parents didn't have the financial power to afford eating it 3 or 4 times a week. Nowadays, rice is such a common food such that it can be eaten 2 times daily. The commonness has made it to lose its Sunday Sunday value and taste.

Dotherightthing:
Congrats to Trump and the whole world.

Iran proposed the ceasefire deal through Pakistan. iran are NO match for Israel or Iran anytime anyday.

The MOST important thing is that Iran has agreed to open the Strait of Hormuz.

Any other point on the ceasefire deal is mere RANT.

US and Israel have achieved their goals in Iran significantly. A regime change has happened.

Iran has lost it's sovereignty as US and Israel can just stroll in anyhow and cut them to size. Iran has been reduced to Yemen.

I hope Iran does not collapse into civil war when all this is over.

Trump got this!

Shame on Nigerian muslims for cheering Iran on to their destruction.

Kaa4:
If Motjaba is not active and is not in charge, who is in charge in Iran? Who gave the order and who declared victory in the war?

The war should come to an end, please.

ChiefOloye:
It is not true, it is mere nostalgia. Nigeria has never been a 'good' country in the way some people remember. It is simply that life became less complicated due to modern access to things like the internet and mobile phones. In the past, there was no electricity or good roads. Very few people could afford imported used cars, build sizeable houses, or send their children to higher institutions. I remember in 1994/95, families couldn't even afford a loaf of bread or a whole tuber of yam, raw yams were sold in slices and using a kerosene stove was considered a luxury. While those specific things are changing, life remains very difficult.
However, with more corruption, yahoo and ritual, life seems to be softer now.

richiemcgold:
We used to refer to all newspapers as Daily Times. I used to say Dele Times back then as a kid

Ikebe super was the first I could identify as a kid but I could not read, I would only go through the pictures. I started reading many years later in late 80s/early 90s. My favourite were Hints magazine, Hearts and Better Lover. I loved Sunday Punch too (my dad always bought it), Tunde Fagbenle was my favourite column. It was Tell magazine that evoked the spirit of activism in me. I loved reading Gani Fawehinmi's interviews. That's why as a secondary school student in 1994, I joined June 12 protest with my classmates.

.. gone are those days

koxyz:
Those are the days when we still have the reading culture intact, the emergency of internet in the early 90s change the whole atmosphere.

12) Benbella

This was an action/detective comic book that was popular in the 1980s.

13) Newswatch

This was the most popular Nigerian politics, economics and current affairs magazine. It covered major political stories and it was shut down several times by the military governments of the 1980s and 1990s. One of its journalists, Dele Giwa, was killed by a parcel bomb and several of its journalists were arrested.


14) Guardian Express, Evening Times, Lagos Weekend

Guardian Express and Evening Times were evening papers that were popular in the 1980s. Guardian Express was owned by The Guardian Newspaper, while Evening Times was owned by the Daily Times. There were several other evening papers at that time, but I can’t remember their names.

The evening papers usually hit the newsstands around 4:30 or 5pm, so they were able to report the major events that had occurred that day (government decisions were usually made during office hours, but TV stations did not air their first news broadcasts until 7pm, so the evening papers bridged the gap). The evening papers usually carried the first stories about riots, changes in government policy, etc.

However, such major stories did not occur every day and the evening papers needed something to fill their papers with, so the evening papers were better known for publishing (1) weird and funny stories from divorce court (2) weird crime stories (3) TV and radio schedules of almost all radio and TV stations in the country (4) weird and sometimes funny stories about sex and (5) cartoons, crossword puzzles, jokes, riddles and quizzes.

The evening papers were usually sold on weekdays. They were not sold at weekends.

Lagos Weekend carried similar stories as the evening papers, but it was sold on Fridays, so it did not usually publish the breaking news that the evening papers published. Instead it published information about concerts and events that were to take place that weekend.

15) Drum Magazine (the Nigerian edition) and Spear Magazine

These were Nigerian versions of South African lifestyle magazines. They were published by Daily Times and were very popular in the 1970s. They published stories about African musicians, politicians, sports stars, food, fashion, health, social issues and other issues that affect Africans. They also had a “girl of the month” feature (Miss January, Miss February, etc.) which was like the page 3 girl feature in the newspapers. Drum Magazine vanished from the newsstands in the early 1980s. I still don’t know why.

There were many Drum-like magazines that were published in Nigeria in the 1970s, but I can’t remember any of their names. I remember that they were smaller than most magazines (they were novel size) and another significant difference between them and Drum was that they oftentimes featured half naked women. You might be reading an article about food or fashion and you turn the page and see a topless girl at Bar Beach. It was quite jarring.

11)Ikebe Super, Lolly

These were slightly erotic and very hilarious comics.

Ikebe Super followed the exploits of the Ajasco Family and their friends Boy Alinco, Miss Pepeye and Pa Jimoh. Ikebe Super was not very explicit but there were lots of sexual inuendos, especially in scenes that featured Papa Ajasco.

Lolly was a much more sexually explicit comic book. It starred Dauda The Sexy Guy, whose solution to every problem was sex. In fact, I would describe him as a rapist. He often got into trouble because of his sexual escapades.
