lalasticlala: Funke Akindele And JJC Skillz are being blasted by Nigerians for allegedly holding a house party amidst coronavirus pandemic and lockdown.
A Nigerian twitter user, the CV Writer @FunkeOnafuye, Sheree the video from the party.
When someone questioned if the video is not old, she replied:
"The video isn’t old. The stories are still up on JJC Skillz’s Instagram stories."
Dasuks: Idriss Deby is a war hardened Zaghawa.. they are Sahelian through and through. Lol Kanuri crase no reach their own...
Afterall who chased the kanembu elite across from Kanem into Borno ? Sahelians live by war.
Who started the mounted gun on hiluxes that boko boys use i.e technicals It was Chadian land units in the war against Libya.
While French and Americans took out key formations from the air and with artillery, ppl like Deby then under Pres Habre drove into Libyan territory on 'technicals' and engaged the Libyans. And they beat Gaddafi boys back.
If Chad had our military budget then they might've have annexed Borno by now, just for being a source of irritation lol.
They have already annexed it as they are fighting two wars. A proxy war against Nigeria on behalf of France and USA for decimating them in 1983 under Shagari and carried out by BUBU himself and Boko Haram.
Compare the arms with what the Chadians are holding and tell me the difference.
We Nigerians voted these demons into power in the first place so we don't have to complain. When next they bring N5000 and one bag of rice for ten households, we are now free to make a choice.
brownsugardr: My Landlord Is Intimidating Me And Wants To Evict Me Before My Rent Expires
I paid my house rent for one full year on 18/04/2019. My rent is due to expire on 17/04/2020.
But my Landlord is insisting it expired on 17/03/2020. Which is Eleven months. I have tried explaining to him but he wants to lock me out unless I pay immediately.
Please how do I get redress.
Get a good lawyer and she the dumbass. These illiterate landlords get to learn great lessons and some sense from litigations rather than simple argument.
Trello: Hello everyone - I'm not quite sure whether this is the right section to post this.
Anyways, I currently hold a Master's degree and I also recently gained admission into a PhD program in a UK university but with no funding from the school and the estimated total cost of the tuition and living expenses amount to about #16 million for the 3 years.
So, I decided to come seek the opinion of folks here with better experience if it really worth spending this amount in the long run or should I rather invest this amount?
Thank you in advance!
Why not try Sweden or any of the Nordic countries with English language universities. They are far cheaper and you will save the cost of your course there than UK or any of the big European countries.

borngeologist: My story might be lengthy with a lot of grammatical blunders.. But my elders Abeg help me just manage read am and advice me because am really confused..
I have a boss who actually loves me. He likes me like a son and he always wants me to go out with him. We are actually very close pal.
There was a day he went out with his girklfriend. I was at home when my phone rang. He told me to bring 3k to where he was with his girlfriend. When I got there he told me to sit down and drink and eat dog meat with them. But I don't eat dog so I only drank one bottle. The lady and I later talked and I left them.
She came to our place this Wednesday. I was inside my room, she was just insisting that she wanted to see me. When I got there, she was just telling me my boss drinks a lot which is quite true but he dosent misbehave. That it is too much. As a guy man I covered up for my boss. And I left her and my boss.
Today we went to her shop. My boss ordered for drink for us. We started drinking. Later I went out, she followed me. We sat together and started talking. She started telling me that If she actually saw me first she would have dated me that she loves me that she doesn't like my boss. I was quite shocked and told her that since she is already dating my boss it is not possible. Then my boss and one of my other colleague with a lady came out and joined us. That was how we started gisting again. I had an important call to pick so I later entered her shop because the outside was noisy. That was how this lady came inside and kissed me. I was really shocked I have to run outside.
My boss and I later left her place for a burial where a friend of his (a lady) invited us to a burial. When I got there this lady started saying she really likes me that she wish she meet me earlier that she would have dated me.. That she really likes me a lot. My boss now jokingly asked me that I want to take all his girls from him. Mind you that my boss girlfriend calls me her husband even people close to her shop call me her husband.. And these ladies are way older than Me..
Please all I need from you guys is advice on what to do cause am confused.
There is also a married lady too that told me she wished she met me earlier that she would have dated me. And other older beautiful ladies. In their early and middle thirties and am just 23.
I hope he does not blow off your head with a gun. Go look for your own girlfriend and leave other people s property.
logon599: RIP to him. And pray comfort for his family.

There was a change in 2006 to 2010 when Ramon Calderon became president of Real Madrid. He signed the likes of Pepe and Ramos to play for Les Merengues.
My dad bought 1500 series brand new at their number one dealer nationwide then, Bhojsons, in 1974. and he replaced it with a Mercedes Benz Regular 200 five years later. That has made me a Mercedes Benz fanatic till date.
majamajic: Old Africans can high their age , no living African is more than 110 yrs of age ,
If there's , check out the person's first born and last born calculate from there
Old Africans can lie about their age
It's not the older Africans but their children. This is common issue in the Northern part of this country where females are married off as soon as they start the womenstruation cycle, say between thirteen years and sixteen years.
From my estimation, Yeye Bello's mum should not be more than seventy five to eighty years. No more than that.
All those who lie about their age, God go reward una with disgrace.
Elsewhere, the South American Football Confederation (Conmebol) says this year's Copa America, due to take place from 12 June to 12 July, has been postponed until 2021. http://www.conmebol.com/es/comunicado-oficial-2 semid4lyfe Mynd44 Lalasticlala
Confederation of African Football will always come last as usual.
I am new here, in fact this is going to be my first post on nairaland. Forgive me if I break any rule, I will keep it very simple.
I'm a fresh graduate, just graduated last year, was not able to go for NYSC due to my age. Simply want to ask, what are the chances of securing a job considering I am above 30.
Before I forget, I studied Business Administration (KASU) with a second class upper. Thanks everyone.
densiks: I’m not an expert in banking or finance operations but is Emefiele not using his influence to give Zenith some leverage in the banking and financial sector of the economy?
In the absence of the above,I commend their timely commitment to ensure that depositors are protected and the assets of weak banks are proactively protected from collapse.
ghettokid1: 1. Senator Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi - (APC, Niger North) Sponsored Hate Speech Bill . 2. Senator Mohammed Sani Mohammed - (APC, Niger East) Sponsored Anti Social Media Bill . 3. Senator Bima Enagi - (APC, Niger South) Sponsored Generator Ban Bill
Before any sensible and right-thinking person supports or opposes this bill, there are very important things to consider before even considering such a bill. There are good and bad politicians. There are those who leave us in awe of their actions, especially these clowns from a state that has produced two military heads of state and still influential in the scheme of how the country works. The economy of Nigeria will continue to depend on generators for a long time to come till we have at least twenty to twenty-four hours of uninterrupted electricity which is not even possible now or in the nearest future.
The biggest surprise is that the Generator Ban Bill was sponsored by a doctorate degree holder, has worked in two places, a consulting company in the Niger Delta and retired as a Director of the Prestigious Central Bank of Nigeria. He, of all people, who are supposed to educate people on the problems of the power sector and the NERC regulations on the generation of power, happens to be the antagonist of the same policy of whom he is a beneficiary. I believe he has a power generator at home, so the law should start with him irrespective of his immunity.
it also shows the level of intellectual capacity of people in power and how they want to bring their retrogressive thinking to bear on the citizens of Nigeria who already have much burden to bear with.
Let us look at the numbers now.
Power outages in Nigeria started in the early seventies when Nigerian industrial expansion started as a result of stagnant and non-expansion of power utilities and monopoly of National Electric Power Authority which was run by the government. Industries across the country started to import diesel generators for use in order to cater for demand for their products and services. Rich residents also bought generators and for most residents operating small businesses within their houses as at that time. By the 1980s, NEPA was inefficient to the extent that they could not carry out their duties. As a result of its monopoly and inefficiency, many industries went moribund and some simply left the shores of the country to other sister African nations where they could invest their monies without additional investments in power.
Subsequent administrations from the 1970s did not invest at all in power until the Obasanjo Administration thought of the initiative in 1999 and started investing in the power sector from under 2000 to 10000MW capacity which was the target. These were to supplement the existing Hydro Power which was our main supply to gas-powered turbines, which the present administration consolidated upon to complete the leftover projects. Though there has been near-constant supply, the current capacity is still not enough to catch up with the rate of industrial expansion and population explosion.
Building a power plant can be compared to building and completing a high rise building. It takes years to build, test and put to use. Using the analogy of the Dangote Refinery, which is under continuous expansion with the consideration of it being the largest refiner, it has taken more than eight years to get to this stage. \Industrialists don't wait for government. They make their own energy plans as part of larger corporate plans because they are private sector and profit-oriented. A power station doesn't start turning in a profit immediately but after five to seven years. Until after recovering its costs then the prices will fall. The case of the telecoms companies comes in point.
If the largest industries gulp the current 10000MW which is not even enough to take care of their needs, bandied about by these government officials, there will be nothing left for residential building and small and medium scale enterprises, who will consume twice the power because of the following demographics.
Small and medium scale industries are not concentrated in a specific area but scattered within and outside residential and non-residential and business districts and even rural areas. Some of their locations don't have access to the public power supply and that's another reason why they need generators to power. Not just generators, transformers and other electrical items.
Currently, small, medium and large scale industries will suffer if this outrageous Bill is passed because they are the largest employers of labor in the country and still growing despite harsh economic policies and an unfriendly operating environment. They are still keeping millions of Nigerians employed. How does the bill intend to give them power for their industries keeping in mind the bill will keep them from using a generator which the lawmakers want to criminalize? By criminalizing the use of generators, a lot of small scale industries will close up and lots of Nigerians especially the youth will lose their jobs. This will result in a sharp spike in criminal activities.
If I may ask, can anyone name a single economic or financial policy document sponsored, suggested or written by Dr. Enagi throughout his years as director of Central Bank Of Nigeria?
I am surprised that the former CBN director now turned senator and a doctorate degree holder who should be able to educate people on the under-capacity of the power sector to deliver rather than sponsoring a sentimental and non-feasible bill that will only regress the little economic progress made.
