It may not be as easy as you think. If there is something criminally damaging against Tinubu in the unredacted files, not only will it turn Tinubu into a global disgrace, it will be the end of his second term ambition

Global disgrace, possible. But to cost him second term? How? In Nigeria where we don't have elections? In Nigeria where he will be declared winner and he will tell you to go to court? In Nigeria where all the judges read the judgment he has written for them? The chances of that affecting his chances of being declared winner in Nigeria, to me, is next to 1%.

Philipponzaghi:
Hahahaha, David is in trouble. He can't be dragging with the big boys.

The drug peddler president's case is just a child play compared to what he would be facing in USA.

So many people are waiting for him in USA, his online bullying would be taught a lesson

In USA? Ah, I think this thing can only affect him in Nigeria (or does he travel to USA? Has he ever travelled to USA as a president?) and Nigeria is in his pocket already already. So for me, I think this is an effort in futility. But, this life is not owned by any man and can pull up surprised anytime. So, make I siddon dey look to see where this will have the slightest effect on tilumbu, except the normal talk the sane Nigerian do.

tundegan:
I will never understand how a grown man will be celebrating the release of drug records of another person.

This is beyond me.

You say?

SultanOfPuna:
People are being useful to humanity, inventing ideas and technology. Discovering and reseaching for the greater good.

Then you have Nigerians gathering in church screaming fire fire fire holy ghost speaking in tongues.
No single contribution or invention to mankind.
Na to dey shout holy ghost my enemies die die die

While their mates are inventing new technologies making life better.
Doing outstanding things..

When i reach Heaven i go stone the angel wey send me come this useless shithole of black species called Nigeria

You forgot to mention that another set are in babalowo houses, witchcraft covens, in front of a water body, or at a junction, or outside their homes by 12midnight speaking in yet another kind of tongues and calling people's names and giving out instructions with effigies in their hand, instead of making the same efforts to punish corrupt politicians, invent new technologies, and better other's lives (since they are forbidden from having a good life). I have told somebody that it like the problem stems from the skin down to the heart. The next thing they can do when they see this kind of news is to start debating if scientists 'are trying God', forgetting that God know how to fight for himself if He is upset with any human.

I just wish Nigerians will simply ignore them and face front, they will know that even after bribing the government and lawmakers, they cannot force the money out of the masses' pockets.

So I came across this new show called Jeez Millionaire Show on TikTok, and it instantly caught my attention. In one episode, a lady was asked the question: "What is the actual meaning of illiterate?"

In Nigeria, we throw that word around a lot often incorrectly. I used to think my mom was an illiterate, but after watching that clip and reading the proper definition, I realized she actually isn’t.

Funny enough, the lady on the show got the ₦500,000 question wrong and honestly, I probably would’ve too. The options were kind of tricky.

Watch the short video below and let us know what you think!

But you interfered in Nigerian politics. But you funded terrorism in Nigeria. Useless opportuned black man who went there to show that there is problem with the black man. An opportunity you would have used to better the lives of Africans you used it instead to help reverse Nigeria's economy from moving upward to moving downward. May that god you serve judge you and may history never cease to talk about your evil deeds.

iwaeda:
Only God knows the truth, as I wanted to type my mind, I remembered Joseph and Portiphar's wife.

I was reading to see when she would say the man put his thing into her thing, e no happen.
This one wey she talk now mean say the man use spiritual eye see demon inside her and wanted to cast it out. Lol.

TUANKU:
You are the fool here. You are no different from the dumb lady.

Succinct!

Peter Obi treats reno omokrikri the same way VDM treats Deeworm. Sometimes I feel ashamed for them honestly.

reno omokrikri has done almost everything possible to get attention. I will weep for him if he has not started getting money from Tinubu yet.

The biggest thing I noticed about reno is that he poses as a Christian, yet behaving worse than politicians like ffk.

I remember all he said in support of Peter Obi earlier, when he felt Peter Obi will not get him to power and his master Atiku seemed to be bulldozing his way in PDP, he was allover. I remember all he said in favor of Atiku.

reno heaped all manner of evil on Tinibu, even as far as staging a protest. But now he has switched loyalty, not just from Peter Obi, but from Atiku also.

Honestly at this point, I feel ffk has some.little more self-respect than reno. Ffk, though he strongly supported tinubu in 2023, but perhaps how he had conducted himself against tonubu in the past, nothing for him. But I like him better because he just respect3d himself small.

I guess it is based on what reno had done to tinubu in the past made tinubu to just ignore his dance of shame.

I am watching to see reno's next switch of allegiance once he is 100% it is a NO from tinubu.

PresidObi:
Silence is the best answer to a fool

I trust Peter Obi to remain as calm as a frozen lake in the face of an ant's ranting.

I like the way Peter Obi is treating omokrikri, same way VDM is treating D worm. Lol.

infohenry:
No need for convoy, there is level to this things. This woman has become a bone lodged in APC neck.

I tell you, they never expected it. Abeg make dem protect her o, Yaya bullo is a devil and can do anything. Make dem no go use rocket launcher attack her.

Disenfranchised:

Who say him no go school?

Disenfranchised:

E b lyk say Asslicking degree pass B. Sc.

Haa, him na P.hD him get for the course o. You no know say na lift dem just lift am enter power? Person wey no fit go TV station go campange. I just weep for Nigerians, they have been enslaved, especially southerners.

decatalyst:
I think his wife left him (died) but he didn't leave the wife (failed to accept reality and start life again).


So he kept glued to his past while his present and future fade away right in his own eyes.

Was that the reason he became a profession is 'accurate perception of reality'?

The headline should be modified to:
Nigeria Secures $500 Million World Bank Loan for the politicians to share

Honestly, I weep for Nigerians, they have been conquered. But they individually have tough spirits and just fighting to survive independent of the government. That is the reason they are leaving in droves, to the extent people and walking through the desert to become prostitutes, even though many know that the chances of getting to their destination is less than 40%. What a pity. What a deplorable state.

I listened to a former governor said before he came to office, they had budgeted some billions for two bullet-proof cars for himself and his deputy or so. But when he came in, he cancelled it and used the same money to order for about 17 or 18 cars from a local manufacturer (PAN) and the cars were distributed to many government officials.

The kind of waste and pipeline of corruption in this country makes me wonder if these people have souls at all. If the citizenry is living in abundance, I don't think anyone will look the way of the politicians, but here some people are paid 50 usd a month for a 40hrs a week job, yet another spends 100,000 usd on just a car. May God punish every corrupt hand in that country.

Ohizman73:
Others were not caught live. This particular one was caught on social media.

There are too many caught on tape bro, this one sef too small.

Was this unknown to the international community? This is just one of it

MichaelSokoto:
meme of d year!

Subnallalah!
Nigerians wit social media are wicked & dangerous Olohun!

Honestly, very funny. But this is typical of alcoholic deterioration.

You may be right, he was a politician, and there were rumours of allegations of how he made money (ITT et al.) and a lot of other stuff.

But for the fact that he was not tested as a president, he remains the "assumed best" president Nigeria never had. Lol.

Yaradua spent a short time as president, and for that short time, Nigerians saw so much good. It is possible he would have been worse than others given a longer time, but as far as we know, he is the "best president" so far.

If Buhari never became president, all the mumus would have said no other president could have been better. But, I am sure we all know what that vseless man stands for in terms of leadership. He is the worst we have see so far, worse than Tinubu for now (until Tinubu is done).

Dem come get small sense dis time.

dettolgel:
I have a different opinion on the role of religion on the behaviour of Africans. I think the original African practices actually promote order. Then response to such a barbaric act was swift and brutal either on family level or community level.

The infiltration of foreign religions have modified our response system to such acts. These foreign religious practices, have also influenced how we implement the western form of law and order, which we have all adopted. Religious practices made it such, that we have come to believe and accept as Christians, that we are under obligation to forgive and even turn the other cheek if need be. This thinking has done nothing but emboldened the perpetrators, while placing the victims in bad lights. There have been cases of prominent Christians leaders that took matters to court according to the law, and people victimised them for not forgiving the perpetrators.

While for some religion you are under obligation to kill an offender irrespective of what the constitution says. Even those with responsibility to implement the law, have hidden under their religious obligations to set these perpetrators free. There are cases of rampaging muslims, that have killed and maimed others and they were never held accountable, because they were following the tenets of their religion.

Such devilsh act, would either resulted in family feud or inter village war in the original African setting. People knew better then and they tend to be strategic about it.

I am not saying that the old system wasn't flawed, I am just pointing out the perculiarity of the system with respect to your submission.

Your opinion is on point and I share same, you are absolutely correct on all facets of your argument. It is actually based on your last sentence that I opine there should be a refinement of that which had existed. Also, I don't know how spiritual you are, but I have some deep knowledge and believe in the things of the spirit. In most cases, some religious beliefs have atrocious bends. To the worshippers' ignorance, they get infested with bad spirits that transcend generations sometimes, negatively affecting their physical lives.
For me, I would rather people are allowed to choose a mode of worship, but there should be a collective rule guiding all which draws some boundaries and curtain certain excesses.
Your assertion about forgiveness, to me, is not necessarily an obligation from man per say, but a commandment from the entity being worshipped. I feel the act cushions evil with good somehow, thus curtailing evil and putting an end to a potential spiral effect.

For instance, if you are hurt, I feel you will feel relieved when you forgive the person who hurt you, and at the same time the person will be paid back by nature (whatever a man sows, same shall he reap). But if you don't, and perhaps go on a revenge trip, a third-party who doesn't know the genesis of the issue may view you differently, and perhaps take it upon himself to mete out revenge on you as though you were the original aggressor, and the chain continues.

Life is more complex than we understand though!

sylve11:
The principles underpinning religion have the potential to yield more beneficial outcomes if they aren't tied to the notion of a superhuman authority dictating the rules of marriage.

It's crucial to recognize the significant impact that these directives have had on human society.

Consequently, it's important to critically evaluate the genuine value of following such practices.

As for me, I take a stand similar to that of Pilate, who distanced himself from the responsibility for Jesus' death. I have made a decisive choice to do the same regarding religious matters.

Disheartening stuff to read on a Thursday morning.

Religion without conscience is wickedness, especially when people practice certain parts of the teachings in isolation. Assuming a person is allowed to marry an underaged girl, I believe this should only happen if it is mutual (which happens, though rare). But there is no place for marrying someone off against their will, no way. Again, any teaching that allows the killing of another just because he/she refuses to be subservient to one is out of it. It is only religion that makes many Africans behave a little orderly (that is when they are 'genuinely' religious, like the born again christians- I don't know if islam has such), but in some other climes, it is natural to obey the law, hence some of us question the elements Africans are made of.

ufotunang:
..nawaaooo..see what konji has caused for our politicians, celebrities and music artists.. there is nothing for free?🙄

It is not really konji, because they have access to many holes, it is sheer 'ashawoism'.

TechBaron:
Pulpit bandits

Very soon they'll upgrade their craft to having quarterly/annual targets, recruit more marketers (Pastors) to open new branches (churches).

The they'll introduce KPIs, appraisal bonuses and profit sharing...

Did say very soon? This shows you either don't go to church, or you have not reached a committed level. This has already started many many years ago.

Xannadu:
Everything is monetised in this country. Won't be surprised if churches start having gate fee in the nearest future

They won't because you have to come in first before they catch you and strip you of all you have. But I tell you, they do it on special events where they only need big men, that is inside, among all they have under their radar.

ufotunang:
,,.. Nigeria can afford it.. our leaders politicians, celebrities, music artists have private jets and have the money to hire for her

Without giving dem her nyansh? In Nigeria abi elsewhere? That is the meaning of 'Nigeria happening to you'. If one of those you mentioned has her hole secured, back or front or both, then and only then can that dream can come true in Nigeria. But if not, forget it.

2cato:
😳😳😳😳😳😳. There have been whispers about your lack of comprehension for some time, but I paid them no heed. Are you truly this way, how old are you by the way? You act and speak like a child,you know.

If Nigeria were overrun by invaders, its land seized by terrorists, and later the country celebrated retaking the territory initially seized, wouldn’t that be worthy of celebration?

The man you so casually label a “comedian” has accomplished more than you have or will ever achieve. It might behoove you to learn when to remain silent.

Direct your energies toward Africa’s affairs and amuse yourself there. This discourse is reserved for individuals who can think for themselves! 🤷🏼

I strongly suspect he is a very young person who gets money for data from a current politician, or he is actively involved in politics.

ufotunang:
.. I thought she would hire private jet and use to travel the 7 continent...it would not had caused much delay to her and beat and break the record

Lol. Youa re right. But Nigeria cannot afford her that, Nigeria has happened to her.

He should sack all he employed to supervise the job because he can't be inspecting everything all the time, spot checks by him is ok, just like he did.

This is how education works in a progressive society, not making students think of what happened in 1905 that has no relevance in today's world. This practical because the girl or another in the same kind of situation can actually consult the lawyer for advice.
