If people didn't call their attention to it, will they retract it? It was intentional, but I still appreciate them

Rikidony:
At least they have retracted, I never expected them this from them.......

Some families are mourning for Christ sake. This kind of appreciation should be done privately because those that died may even be more prayerful. We need to be more humane in this country. I know religion makes us selfish a little bit cos we've read the story of how God destroyed a group of His creation for another group of His creation.

The more people try to run away from Nigerians, the closer they get.

Wow. Wonders shall never end. The Judge must be brought to book.

Haruna Banbagida is the younger brother of Tijani Babaginda. He was super talented when he was young even Arteta confessed that the best young player he has ever played with during their days in Barca academy was Haruna. Unfortunately, many Nigerian players don't know how to manage success. This guy was super fast. We all know how fast Tijani was then but Haruna was like lightening.

This will be difficult to prove especially if there is no audio, picture or video evidence. I am not a lawyer but I guess that part of the law will be more viable for runaway groom/bride. I've seen the situation where the groom or bride run away on their wedding day.

Mynd44:
That is for the judge to decide.

If she can prove from witnesses and close friends, she might be on to something sensible

Wow. I am hearing this for the first time. Thanks.

How will the lady prove the promise in the court of law? I mean evidence. It will be easier to prove if they have done family introduction and the lady has some pictures.

Mynd44:
What Nigerian men don't understand is that if you promise to marry a woman and you don't, the woman can sue you to court.

In Nigeria, a promise to marry is a legally binding contract and contrary to what you think, she can institute a civil suit against you, win and be awarded monetary damages.

But how it became a criminal case here is somehow maybe due to the financial investment involved

I understand there is hunger in the land, but greed is also the problem of our people. Everybody wants to ride G Wagon

You have no development without security.
You have no development without people development.

As good as Abuja/Kaduna highway is, nobody wants to rive through it again. Cos of security, one or two attacks on the train will scare people and will render all the billions of investment useless. Buhari should set his priority right. Make Nigeria safe first. Just one bomb can destroy $1billion project. People destroyed over a trillion naira worth of properties within 24hours during the ENDSARS saga. That's how easy it is to destroy things.

[quote author= post=98209748]More on TRAINS.....

Kudos to our darling Daddy for all the good works he and his Vice president have been doing all over our darling nation.

Slow and steady, Nigeria will be great in our lifetime.

I HATE TRAINS.
I HATE BRIDGES.
I HATE RICE.
I HATE TALLEST BUILDING EAST OF THE NIGER


Let me give the background to this piece. I was reading some comments on Twitter early in the week, when I ran into this one by one Dr Ben Gbenro: “Why are some people allergic to good news about Nigeria? You are angry about the test-run of Lagos-Ibadan rail, you are angry about the development in Onne Port, but will eagerly amplify any negative news even if it’s not true. Something is wrong with you and I am here to tell you.”

Of course, that comment generated responses, both positive and negative. But the one that caught my fancy specially was by Ayekooto, who declared: “We have got to a stage when GMB achievements can no longer be denied but hated. I hate trains. I hate bridges. I hate rice.”

Very profound. A lot of people can no longer deny the many achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari, particularly in the area of infrastructure, building a new Nigeria, and so, they have decided to hate it. Sad. Very sad.

Nobody can deny that there are very serious challenges in the country, particularly in the areas of security, the economy, and standard of living generally. But that is not all there is to Nigeria of today, and those challenges are being addressed very robustly. That hymn says “behind a frowning providence, He hides a smiling face. His purposes will ripen fast, unfolding every hour.” We will surely see an end to the challenges, if we all work together, and eschew hate speeches.

Why then do some people choose to see and amplify only negative things? Why do they choose to remain willfully blind and deaf to positive things? And surrounded and confronted by salutary developments, they keep repeating; what has the Buhari administration achieved? Show us.

You tell them that just last weekend, there was a test run of the Lagos-Ibadan rail project, with brand new coaches that will begin commercial operation before the end of the year.That is happening in a country where we were told we couldn’t afford new coaches when our oil was selling at over 100 dollars per barrel. Now, at about 40 dollars per barrel, we are launching new coaches. Instead of giving credit to a prudent government, they just say; I hate trains.

Okay, if you hate trains, what of brand new airports in Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano, Enugu, and others in the works? There was a time we were said to parade the worst airports in the world. But not any longer. Buhari reversed it in his four years. What do they say about that? They look up, look down, scratch their heads, and say; I hate airports. I’ve never even boarded a plane in my life, and I don’t want to board. Will I ever enter a plane if I’d been killed by bandits?

Okay. You hate airports and planes. What of bridges being built over rivers in different parts of the country, most especially the Second River Niger Bridge, which the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) built with mouth for 16 years. You tell them that the bridge is almost 50% done, and should be completed in the first quarter of 2022. There’s also the Loko-Oweto Bridge, linking Benue and Nasarawa States. It was started by a previous administration, but almost completed now. Like a cornered rat, their eyes dart furtively from corner to corner, seeking a hole to enter. Finding none, they tell you deadpan: I hate bridges.

Okay. All those are physical structures. So they want stomach infrastructure. You then tell them of the rice revolution, which has freed us from being a net importer of the product in the world. You point out that if Buhari hadn’t put his money where his mouth was, and encouraged us to go back to the land, causing rice farmers to rise from six to 12 million, we would have been in serious trouble when COVID-19 struck. How would we have imported rice, with all international borders closed, and no foreign exchange to even place orders? They pat their tummies gingerly, belch after a hearty meal, and then declare: I hate rice.

A Cancer Centre has been built and commissioned by President Buhari at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH). An ultra-modern diagnostic center also built and commissioned in Kano. And just this week, another diagnostic centre built at a cost of $5.5 million, was commissioned at the Federal Medical Centre, Umuahia, in Abia State. What do they say of all these? “I hate hospitals. May I never need to use any diagnostic centre. It is not my portion.”

You join them to say amen, since you don’t have a hateful heart. And you remind them that the largest ever vessel in the country, Maerskline Stadelhorn, with a length of 300 meters and width of 48 meters, berthed few days ago at Onne Port, in Rivers State. That is the biggest ever container vessel to berth in any part of Nigeria. Onne people were delirious with joy, and praised the government to high heavens, because no vessel had come to their port for 12 years, till August last year, under Buhari. You tell the naysayers the positive economic implications, but they refuse to listen. They dive under water, shouting as they go: We hate container vessels.

You then take them to Yenagoa, in Bayelsa State. Just last week, the skyline of South-south and South-East was transformed, as President Buhari commissioned the tallest Federal Government structure in the region, the 17-story Nigerian Content Tower, Headquarters of Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB).

The architectural masterpiece occupies an area equivalent to four football fields, and has a 1,000 seater conference centre plus a 10 MW power plant. Started in late 2015, now completed, all under Buhari. Engineer Simbi Wabote, Executive Secretary of the agency paid tribute to the resolve, determination and encouragement of the President, that saw the structure to completion in record time. And Wabote, third E.S of NCDMB in its 10 years history, has written his name in gold. Just because he has a supportive President.

Minister of State for Petroleum, Chief Timipre Sylvia, under whose tenure as Bayelsa State Governor the land was allocated for the project, declared: “The commissioning of this building is symbolic in many ways. It shows that Mr President is keen to see infrastructural development in every part of the country...It shows that skyscrapers and other laudable infrastructure can be built in the Niger Delta.”

But they say Buhari hasn’t achieved anything. You show them the 17-story building, and as they gaze skyward, their caps and headgear fall off. You pick the cap and headgear, dust and hand them back. And you ask, brothers and sisters, how now? Rather than admit defeat, they pull the caps and headgear over their eyes, and grumbled: We hate skyscrapers. They make us dizzy.

At that point, you pity them.
You realize that they need prayers.
They hate everything good.
They hate anything uplifting.
They hate development.
They hate their country.
They even hate themselves.


To the enemies of the country,
Children of hate, Frustrations and perdition,
Lovers of bad news,
The anointing wey all of us @[color=#006600][/color] carry,
No be una Papa mate!
No Cap!

MAY BUHARI SUCCEED.


Amen and God bless you real good.
Happy New Year.


God bless you and God bless your parents for giving us a wise man like you.
You are one of the few sane people we have here.
Keep it up and Happy New Year! [/quote]

Let's finish these guys once and for all.

You said the South will not vote for Imam. I disagree with you. South East may not but South West can vote for an Imam. South West can even vote for a Babalawo. Religion is not a big deal in SW.

Arewa1stSon:
I have no problem with Osibanjo... He is capable of piloting the affair of Nigeria!!

But I am sorry the north will never support him!!

We are now seeing very clear that the reason why most of you southerners are pushing for Osibanjo is because of religious reasons not because of competence or his political capacity!!

The north will stand with Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu!!

There's nothing Osibanjo can do that Tinubu can not do!

The north will not vote for a pastor... That's the bitter truth!!

Same way the south would not vote for a malam or any imam regardless of his competence!!

So the Christian bigots should stop deceiving each other and support Jagaban and Elrufai.

Those are the only candidates that would beat Atiku in the North!!

I am just saying the truth you don't want to hear

You owe nobody explanation and you are free to fall in love with anybody. Nigerians call every successful woman ashewo. I don't why it's so difficult for people to believe women can be rich and successful without selling their bodies.

Don't be stingy. The stingy men association is only against ladies, not Government.

I have money in my first bank havnt touched it close to 13 yrs now.


If first bank give fg my money they will pay me back

You are overthinking a simple thing. Reverse the situation. 6 beautiful girls want to rape you or kill you if they don't have there way. What will you do? In fact, if my wife is in such a situation, I would prefer she picks rape and being alive. If she's alive, we can seek the service of a psychologist to help through the trauma. I will also support her 100%.

She said the right thing, but a wise woman won't say it out in the presence of her husband. I blame her for that.

Nonsense. He's been in Dubai for a while now. Same with Atiku. They are not even ashamed that they can't stay in the country they've led before.

I'm surprised. I thought it will be more than that

This is sarcasm. I am surprised you didn't pick it

In the same paragraph where he said "how dare.........", he said, "The pigeons must be investigated and their collaborators smoked out" . It's no brainer, Bro.

gaius01:
Arrrrrrrh

What is this one saying? Imagine him saying 'How dare' something must be wrong with this man. Is the pigeons human being? No wounder I couldn't fathom what he wrote.

Oga should pack one side, the pigeons is angry with Buhari, talkless of us Nigerians .

And which opposition party is he talking about, lose nutted dude.

So, you think Drogba can never be the problem? Also, do you think Drogba is broke? Chai, women don enter am for this world.

Some times when the money stop raining


The you see the other side of the ladies

The answer is oppression has been enshrined in us by our colonial master. It starts at home. Parents cannot use words to correct children except cane. If cane and beating work, our society won't look like this because I believe that 90% of our criminal politicians, cultist, armed robbers were caned by their parents as a form of discipline when they are growing up. Choir leader with small power will oppress his choir members. The bank teller will oppress customers paying his salary. LASTMA will oppress you. Even a waiter will oppress you. The colonial master taught us to treat each other like animals. It will take a deliberate effort to change that mindset.

saheedbadmus:
Amotekun don dey bite more they can chew .. come to think of it , why is it that any kind of uniform force here in 9Ja dey always misuse power.. army,navy, Air Force,police, vio,road safety,lastma now amotekun .. these people need to employ educated dudes and then orientate them .. WTF

Naija. I know so many people celebrate yahoo boys because it's oyibo they are scamming. This is how those Oyibo feel too. Some of them even commit suicide.

I don't blame you. Maybe there is no legally successful woman in your family.

You are so poor in thinking that you can't see opportunities around you. She's a brand ambassador for Sibgan Property. Do you know you can earn 5-10% selling properties? Do you know most properties on the Lagos Island cost 60m on the average? She sells several products on her IG page. She has 1.8m followers on her IG. If you are wise, do you know what you can do with 1.8m followers.

The difference between female celebrities and their male counterparts is humility. Most of these female celebrities can sell anything on their social media page without thinking of their status. Their male counterparts will be forming big boys instead of taking advantage of the millions of followers they got. I am not saying a few of the female celebrities don't sleep around but you have to get proof before nailing someone.

Eye service. Leaders delegate to reliable trusted people selected base on competence, not politics. If he's too busy with important things, he won't be climbing stupid trees all around. He can even use drones to inspect.

We hate the truth. Whether we like it or not, those guys are among us. It is a very difficult topic but they are among us. They are even on this platform. Africa likes to look away from a problem instead of addressing it. Why can't we carry out our own independent research with zero oyibo influence to determine if truly those homosexuals are saying the truth that it is in-born.

Read the story of Alaafin Orompotoniyun. What she did was like transgendering of today. Because we don't study history, we thought Western culture brought all the so-called bad things to Africa. Fulani has been cross-dressing before they even start in the West. African women have been twerking before Beyonce and Co dreamt of it.

Time will tell whether it's you or I that is brainwashed. Are you not seeing what is happening? He must pay for his crime.

Xtianvic:
look how brainwashed you are
Sorry for you

It's political. So you won't connect communities because of illegal acts. Are people not transporting illegal things from Lagos to Ibadan. Why did we connect the cities?
I agree that they have to seek approval but destroying the bridge is wrong.

The rise and fall of Donald Trump.

He must end up in prison

Trump is going crazy. He might be forming a new political party and shatter Republican party. Unfortunately for him, he's going to jail after office.

Trump exposed the weakness of many Americans. They are too easy to manipulate. No wonder some yahoo boys that can barely put two sentences together without error are cashing out from them regularly.

Your brother is your brother, why emphasizing the same father, the same mother.

Thank you. Ignorance is killing our people. That's why I laugh anytime people want to die praying during crossover service. It is we human that divide our time into seconds, mins, hours, days, months, years for "documentative purposes". In the spiritual realm, nothing like that. Will every event in 2020 just disappear because we enter 2021?

Gamer999:
There's nothing like escaping 2020, pray God to just protect you all through. I don't see any difference between last year and the one we just entered

Awo, Imule

After pooping, clean with water, not tissue. Most of the time when we use tissues, there are always some remains. When you seat, it rubs on your boxers

I am sorry for the wrong assumption. That assassination type depicts drug dealers assassination type.

PerfectlyPerfect:
Don't be talking rubbish. He's my boss, we even went to a traditional marriage ceremony on the 27th of December. His source of income is legit, Lorag is a big-time construction consulting agency that handles contracts even for World Bank in Nigeria
