hukslaw:
From the comments, it's obvious that many Nigerians react based on emotion rather than understanding. Many called the son foolish, and one person even blamed it on him being Gen Z. Yet the post clearly described him as a "bungling son."

Unfortunately, many of these " 'am' a graduate" youths didn't take a moment to Google the meaning of bungling son before rushing to comment.

How is bungling not a synonym of foolish, based on the Google meaning below

Bungling means doing a task very badly because of a lack of skill, care, or experience.

It describes clumsy, awkward, or careless work that often ruins what you are trying to do.

AngelSlay:
The goal should be both: earn more and manage better.

Because “small small money” can teach discipline, but discipline without enough income can still feel like running on a treadmill.

Thanks for sharing your angelic wisdom on this topic.

I love your treadmill analogy………….running on a treadmill that is going nowhere.

Stevosty:
How many even have the "small money"? Nobody manages money better than a poor man.

If extreme poverty paupers manage their small money well enough they won’t be forever poor, from one generation to another.

If African countries manage our small money well enough, then why are we still suffering from extreme poverty and other problems, seven decades after independence?

pansophist:
Not only the UK, it’s same situation in many western countries, especially densely populated countries like The Netherlands, Belgium, and Ireland.

And there are no signs that it’s getting better. It just seems like people work to pay rent, mobile data, utility bills, fake it on social media and repeat monthly.

Why pay rent when one is living with parents

Do they live more with single mothers than with dads or both parents?

quadraheem:
Rufai, hope you are listening?

Why should you be happy that Tinubu is steadily revealing himself as a dictator who wants to be a life president

gulfer:
I doubt if this is Lekki, looks like Lekki-after-Ajah with that sand and daily I'm seeing, real Lekki waster is tending towards crimson in some area, she's even in a fairer environment, let her come to real Lekki...... everywhere not be Lekki

Do you know if residents of posh areas of Chicago, London etc have similar issues with water supply

ComingKing:
They should go and hire Bayo Omoboriowo's apprentice them.

If the current handler is incompetent of taking good quality images for the president.
#WeTax are angry

The fake news photo is not about quality.

It’s about the fact that Kagame is not in France and the lunch with sick Tinubu could not have happened.

Mindlog:
Very poor damage control. 😂😂😂

Unfortunately for Tinubu, we are in the 21st century with information easily accessible to verify propaganda lies.

There is no record of Kagame being in France recently to confirm this APC propaganda fake news.

God1000:
What about the beheaded victims of this man?

This is the same trump some misguided folks in Nigeria are looking up to for help

How is Trump different from balablu Tinubu who packaged expired Buhari for misguided folks in order to get his own turn in Aso Rock

Seefinish:
We are exporting fuel to Dubai and yet another report stated that despite the two refineries in the country, Nigeria is still importing billions of litters of fuel into the country. The story " get K-leg"

That is the government magic Fela sang about many decades ago

ChiefOloye:
I love the politics of Asiwaju.

PDP should brace up, in the months leading up to 2927, they suspend more than half of their members will work for the president.

Do you also love the governance of Tinubu, which increases the tax burden on the masses to steal for bribing politicians to retain power

While it may be the oldest Anglican cathedral, are you sure that it is the oldest Anglican edifice?

What is the meaning of edifice

Security of the website against hackers is very important to safeguard this space and the information archived over the years. Years that are becoming decades.

osuofia2:
Blame the spoiler, what do you expect when the foundation is faulty.

The foundation was faulty for Susan and South Sudan left.

The foundation was faulty for Ethiopia and Eritrea left.

The foundation was faulty for Pakistan and Bangladesh left.

The foundation was faulty for Malaysia and Singapore left.



Where there is a will, there is always a way!!!

Racheal45:
The worst mistake to happen to Nigeria na Britain
How can you give us independent when we are still dependent

Dem for even still dey rule till now

What are you waiting for? You should petition your own senator and representative to amend the 1999 constitution for recolonisation by Britain.

You should do it now as part of the 6th Amendment to the constitution.

RaySimran:
I watch one of her interviews, she clearly said that she doesn't understand how tax works. I shock

Suddenly and conveniently timed lack of understanding.

Did she not understand how tax works when she was harassing Sunak about his tax returns?

Zackattack:
I wish we are civilize enough to make this type of call in Nigeria 🤦🏻‍♂️

Since wishes alone don’t achieve anything, what else is needed to make your wish come true?

Have you heard about- Faith without works is dead

emmaodet:
I think the population size of nigerians with disposable income has not reduced from then till now, what has changed and increased is the population growth in relation to people with disposable income.

In a simple statement for example, 15 out of 100 nigerians had disposable income to do other things outside their basic amenities while in 2025, the population has grown and not the 15 shrinking.
In other words, the nigeria population growth rate is higher/faster than disposable income growth rate

I guess that this is based on your perception rather than verifiable data, which takes into consideration the hyperinflation of the past three years and worse unemployment and extreme poverty rates.

emmaodet:
One thing I noticed is that a sizeable percentage of Nigerians are really doing fine and enjoying despite this harsh economy.

You meet people doing fine for themselves.

Is the situation better or worse now than December 2022 when you posted this comment, for most Nigerians?

Moreover, how representative of 200 million Nigerians are your sizeable percentage who are really doing fine and enjoying for themselves?

Hemanwel:
I have a single mother I am befriending at my workplace. This lady has a personal business she's running. Recently, she got a business proposal from one of the companies she sells their product. The business proposal has the capability of giving her a breakthrough in the sales business, because if her turnover is seen to be impressive, the company will make her the sole distributor of the product in her locality. However, She's required to commit about N4m into the business according to the proposal.

Now, the challenge is that, she ain't got the dough; and she's been singing it to my hearing cos she knows I have the money. How did she know I have the money? I did a transaction a certain night; I then mistakenly sent the debit alert to her as a proof of payment for the transaction before editing the balance.

I do not plan to marry this lady, neither do I plan to be with her for long. I am only using her to cure konji until I finally get the girl I want to settle with. Besides, I have other plans for the money she saw in my account. Now, how do I convince her that she's NEVER in my plans with respect to that money she saw? This is a lady who thinks because she's single and I am also single, and that we are 'chopping' each other, it automatically means she's my woman. In fact, she'd once asked me about my plans of wife-ing her.

Is this the same girl who you were talking about below

Hemanwel:
Good day, fellow Nairaland comrades and OGs in the house!

I have this 35-year-old single mother of one who works in the same place with me that I recently started an affair with. After a while, I discovered that our perception or idea about life differs. Also, I discovered that she isn't the type I may want to decide to spend the rest of my life with. Despite being a graduate, she acts too local for my liking. Imagine girl wen go dey use bare hand dey pick cockroach for ground. Lolss. In terms of beauty sef, she's just a plane Jane. She jur get small fine shape like that, na why I say make local man dey use her hold body.

Now, it's like the affair is becoming a clog in the wheel for me to get other better chicks. As a comrade, I suppose end am once and for all and call her bluff; but on a second thought, Okafor's Law comes to mind. So, I want to ask: what subtle or decent way can I end the relationship, in which both parties can still be in good talking terms?

TimeManager:
Lere Olayinka captured it perfectly, a month after Peter Rufai's demise, then Obi jumped on it as soon as Taribo criticized the Govt (NFF).

After all , everyone including Obi was aware of Peter Rufai's passing a month ago. Where was Obi since one month ago?.


-Kiss the truth!

What is the truth about Lere’s boss failing to jump on a since Rufai died

obataokenwa:
They should remove that nonsense law of switching off phones. So one can't listen to music anymore or do something with his phone.

We are not slaves

Would you rather be a corpse eternally than be a slave for a few minutes

hakeemhakeem:
He has done well,May he live long with good health and wealth.

Is this praise because you know that he pays all his taxes and is doing the road in addition to the taxes paid

ednut1:
but USA and allies can invade/occupy Afghanistan, Iran, Vietnam .

Usa can grant panama independence because of the canal . Usa can support Israel to terrorize their neighbours. Mr man rest .

You are the one who should rest.

In which of these countries did America annex their territory

Gerrard59:
It's interesting to see how France is quiet when presidents in Ivory Coast and Cameroon extend their tenures, but roars when those in Niger Republic, Burkina Faso and Chad do the same

Who are the DEMOCRATICALLY elected presidents of Niger Republic, Burkina Faso and Chad who wanted to extend their mandate that France roared against?

Can you please share your verifiable evidence.

May his soul rest in peace.

Quite sad that it’s only this type of news about our national league that makes it to the FP of Nigeria’s foremost forum. Quite sad!!!

zero8zero:
He never imagined there's someone who could bring down his tingods down to the level they belong. They feel like they were superior and untouchable until Tinubu demystified them.

How did Tinubu demystify them, when he made one of them a replacement for his own southern brother in 2015?

Assetosky:
People that have bought everybody and all excos in ADC will come and give you good governance ba?

This is the kinds of comments that expose the hypocrisy of Nigerians

What are the things you want in good governance
