Power drunk? I think not. Of them all-Buhari, Tinubu, Osinbajo- Osinbajo has the most servant-leader mindset.

And I’m not even a fan of his.

kentokay71:
Thank you very much, he was power drunk and was listening to people like OJODU and he messed up big time

Wtf are the Mackintoshes?

Wait oh. The man in blue is 36?

Thank God for the environment you were raised in.

The reality is that many people are raised with prejudice - mostly the result of ignorance, but sometimes from one traumatic experience that leads to generalisation in an echo chamber of emotion.

Nobody brought up Yorubas to hate Ibos. If my parents ever mentioned Ibos to me as a child or even as an adult may God curse my entire generation with incurable afflictions. Not once in my entire life did my parents ever talk about ibos to us talk less preach any hate. Not once did I hear any degoratory word used against Ibos from my parents.

I grew up in an environment where we saw ourselves as Nigerians, your actions have changed that.

it is your actions thanks to the internet and your migration in significant numbers that has shown us your true feelings towards us and we are responding accordingly. If we were brought up to hate you, we would not be the only ones who returned your properties and the place you all ran to after the end of the civil war.

This is an opportunity for Nigerians educate one another. For parents to unlearn bias and teach their children.

Bokku should rather looks for way to change the name. The damage had been done. Apology can't erase it. When Hausa man says Igbo they are referring to the whole south south. Even the West can't actually differentiate between them.

20 years ago that advert would have been wrong, untruthful and hurtful for no reason.

The fact that new age media have made social reaction more instant does not change that fact.

Non Hausa/Fulani ‘Northerners’ have always struggled to have their own identities recognised but lately more and more southern Nigerians are learning that you shouldn’t tag everyone from the North as Hausa. That doesn’t mean that 20 years ago calling everyone Hausa was okay.

Dalohad:
If that advert was done 20 years ago. There wouldn't have been any issues.

We must understand that the current political climate is now seriously ethnocentricised. Nigerians are now more technically conscious than they were just 2 decades ago..

Everything is now looked at via an ethnic prism, and everyone should come to terms with that fact.

God help the proponents of 'One Nigeria', they are failing faster everyday, than the speed with which excrement hits the soakway from the toilets.

PheelzAlmighty:
Why are y'all recycling this very old and stale news

Something a scammer would say.

There’s nothing old or stale about this news as long as idiotic Nigerians keep scamming and blackmailing people.

There’s nothing old or stale about this news until all 419ers and Yahoo boys are locked up and all their ill-acquired wealth taken back.


Know this and know peace.

Blame the person who posted this here for confusing Nairaland.

The wedding was called off by the father of the bride. The person speaking is the niece and the word she used to describe her uncle is in their language (Hindi). There is nowhere she mentioned the mother of the bride.

illicit:
I dislike people that can't use correct pronouns

Mamu means uncle.

Her uncle called off his own daughter’s engagement to an impatient fiancé.

RealityKings1:
You've given it protection now Give it food, give it water and set it free over time

The only protection it needs is from the person who caged it.

How does “inconclusive” read as “cleared”?

I know English is a borrowed language but…

Who is this Okolo person and why has he been on a positive PR spin of late ? Why is he trying to establish relevance ? Be careful my people.

Fineman2:
UPDATE!

Chidimma Vanessa Adetshina is now no.2 in the world on the Miss Universe Pre Arrival Hot Picks. Africa Queen 👸 ❤️

How is that site related to the Miss Universe contest? They don’t even link to it on their page.

I sure hope it’s legit

Is there a reason why it is being shown to the world?

Maybe it was the « impacting » knowledge that did the VO’s head in… 🤷🏾‍♂️

Is it possible to request for information on the reason for denial ? Maybe appeal ?

God1000:
I hope he will compensate them

compensation should only be activated if the building wasn’t in contravention of extant laws at the time of construction.


You should not and will not compensate people for illegal structures, no matter how long they were standing .

Mynd44:
He ordered them to resign meaning if they don’t, they will be sacked.

But the president cannot sack Emefiele which means the order has na effect on Emefiele

But he can suspend him indefinitely?

she was so hangry. the accent changed three times in the clip.

I call BS

You obviously need something to distract you in life so you can mind your business.

First son… so tf ? Is he owing you money or marriage ?

And we wonder why we don’t move forward…

so they weren't caught robbing people in traffic ?

Lol.. That "Goliath" is a pastor in the church and a friend to Davido.... His name is David too

I was waiting for someone to point this out lol. David is the Goliath with Davido.

Cameroon not allowing dual nationality is the only thing you should consider at this point.

the Cameroonian passport doesn't do much more for you than the Nigerian one, but I think you would rather a Buhari or Jonathan who you can insult in peace... than an uncle Paul or auntie Chantal.
