Loewe: Well, I know this may be a bit off point, but that man was caught with only 40 grams of Cannabis.
40 grams of Cannabis is like what 2 or 3 people smoke for fun at a gathering, so I am wondering if that has any economic benefit in the first place. That's like N1000 weed in Naija.
Unless he is smoking it himself, the aim of the drug is certainly not to make money cos it doesn't make sense. I also hope it wasn't a setup to tarnish his image...
Before y'all come for me, Omo oodua ni mi o. I am not Igbo so this has nothing to do with ethnicity. Just asking a common sense question. One simple common sense question you should ask is; Is marijuana whether 1kg or 1000kg legal in Nigeria? There you have your answer! |

LocalStandard1: In summary:
1. America is trying to stretch it's arms to Russia using NATO and Ukraine,
2. Russia says 'no, we won't allow it'
3. Russia invades Ukraine (the puppet), to stop the move ahead of time,
4. The West (NATO and America), the all-righteous and moral wink, knowing they can't attack Russia directly (too big and strong for them) decided to use sanctions against both country and individuals.
5. In doing so they discover in other to hurt a new enemy they have to beg old enemies to be friends.
Question-: Venezuela, Iran, Zimbabwe, Cuba, North Korea etc have been under western Sanctions for decades now, are these countries eating each other to survive? If NO then Russia will find a way to thrive for years to come even with the sanctions, it just a matter of time.
The world does not belong to the west, west is where the sun sets. Lets look to the east! The way the tone of you and your ilks have changed from Putin will wipe Ukraine off the world map in a couple of days and bla bla bla to this is so astonishing! Is it the same Putin that is now relying on Belarus and volunteers to "wipe Ukraine off the face of the earth" that is "too strong"? Go back to your history books! This is two weeks already and the West will give Putin Afghanistan 2.0! Capturing Kyev or even the whole Ukraine isn't the point, they are going to keep him busy for a long long time that he will hate the day he started this war with Ukraine because he won't go back to Russia to a rousing welcome because of the damage at home! Anytime I see this new line about sanctions on Russia on Nairaland and the lame comparison that you folks make, I wonder if you know that 1. No country has had this much sanctions rain on them AT ONCE, precision-targeting every facet of their life from economic to sports, to entertainment to e.t.c ...None! Tell me one among those countries that has this much sanctions poured on them in so short a space of time. Remember that he is fed sanctions left, right and centre while executing a very expensive war! 2. Among those countries you listed, atleast we know what happened in Zimbabwe and Venezuela! And hey not a quarter of these sanctions imposed on Russia was imposed on them. You see this alliance against Russia, is not something that happens everyday and the moment Europe weans herself off Russian Oil and gas...forget Russia! 3. Sanctions that its aftershocks is biting even the US, you think it's something Russia will recover from easily? Think again! 4. People were shouting China as Ruasian ally but china has gotten the memo and have chosen to fight another day and protect her economy today. Shey china has refused to sell aircraft parts to Russia...na small small e go clear for Russia eyes! 5. For Russia, Win or Lose, she has already Lost! |

BKayy: We warned them.
Russia haven't started and silent revolution is brewing in USA. The masses have realised that capitalism is a scam to protect Thieves who feed on poor peoples blood.
Look at the increase in gas price since the start of Ukraine conflict even though Moscow have not started her own sanctions.
I told you people that it is producers vs Consumers. What sanctions should ee expect from Russia? Russia can't afford not to have her oil and gas not bought because how on earth is she going to keep funding this never ending war? Isnt that all Russia has? Russia will implode sokn of the bite persists! More sanctions are coming! |

That doesn’t mean the foetus spent the entire 9 months in a tube.....the fertilization product is returned into the mothers womb and delivered normally via the vagina or C/S

Ministers(Emeka Wogu, Nyesom Wike etc) were resigning to contest Primary elections in their states and we even thought it was already in the electoral law, then APC came and people like Fayemi was still a minister while contesting for Ekiti primaries. Kudos to the NASS for not amending that section like Malami had wanted. Funny how you reach that conclusion! They didnt amwnd because there is a substantive court injuction that bars them from doing that...simple..so they are waiting for that injunction to be vacated before they can make a move at amending!

Russia is even using COLD WAR tech, choppers and not doing strategic bombing. You guys are really naive Where folks like you miss it is that you think anybody believes Ukraine ALONE stand a chance against Russia...no way BUT you have to admit that Putin is infuriated that he still wakes up to see Zelenskys face because this isnt just Ukraine-He thought it will just be a drive through like Crimea but... You are right when u said it was going to be a long drawn out war not because that's what Putin wants (he is bleeding badly on all fronts) but because that is what the west will give him...wear him out on all fronts that even when there is a ceasefire he wont consider going back in! |

Ermm pls were u ppl thinking Russia would take the whole of Ukraine in 3 days ? Do u know how big ukraine is ? Plus the fact they can't do strategic bombing et al and civilian casualties... how long did it take U.S to take Baghdad? Lol ... WARS ARE LONG TERM. The fact remains that Putin thought that going into Ukraine will be like Crimea and he coukd take Ukraine in 3 days but he still can't believe that Zelensky is still president and the gambit for him is to draw the West in but no way will they gratify him in battle...they will feed this battle remotely and do damage to Putin at home and wear him out away for far longer than he is willing to go... |

You really think Ukraine would stand for a weak if it was an all out destruction?? Bro Even putin himself doesnt buy this thought trajectory you folks tow...Putin is actually frustrated that Zelensky is still president and he hasn't been able to take him out with all his noise! You see all that mile long convoy of amoured tanks invading a country coupled with bombadments and you say they are going there to play abi? Putin has come to the reality on ground that this is going to be long drawn out war...shey he is saying this will continue for as long as it takes! This is Afghanistan 2.0 for the Russians...the west won't get involved directly because that is what Putin wants and they wont give it to him and they will keep this war going for as long as it takes to wear Russia out both at home and away in Ukraine even if Zelensky gets taken out. They just have to do this because they know China/Taiwan is watching, North korea/South korea is watching, Pakistan/India/Kashmir is watching and this will determine the fate of their strategic alliance! |

Kylekent59: NYSC should stop displaying core members contacts on their magazines.
Core members should take note. Is it by that one? Its so easy to get peoples details, if you don't believe me create one phony job vacancy thread on Nairaland and you will be flooded with CVs with personal data in no time or haven't you seen all those threads in here where people are asked to comment with their phone numbers? One cant be too careful this days you know. Keep your emotions in check when you get an invite. That you got an invite doesn't necessarily mean that you got the job o. Calm down and begin CIA, FBI, INTERPOL work on that invite. Always seek abundant opinions about vacancy invites before venturing out from multiple sources both on and offline. At least on Nairaland here, so many people have been saved from heading to "gnld scam interviews" packaged as some multinational company interviews. All this attitude of "I want to come back home and surprise them with my appointment letter" without telling close family/friends could be a recipe for an unpleasant surprise o. Use technology, Google map check out the address and some blocks to the venue keep asking people around as if you don't know and can't find your way to the address, you just might stumble on some good natured fella who will warn you about where you are heading to. People living around such places either suspect or know what this devilish people do. This saved my wife at one point in Lagos when a woman selling stuff by the roadside whom she asked warned her not to go there o. Lastly, PRAY about it and if you feel this heavy, unrelenting uneasy feeling, there just might be something fishy or the inteeview might just be a waste of your time and not worth the bother. Stay safe! |

Nice one. Tinubu spoke like an elder statesman and offered solutions on how to make Amotekun stand the test of time. He would be meeting with Akeredolu soon like he opined.
Like Femi Falana rightly said, the SW governors should hastily legalize Amotekun and proceed to commence operations once and for all.
The Yorubas should set our eyes on the target and stop being distracted by the usual vituperation on the media space which brings nothing meaningful but tension.
The response of the Yorubas should be actions rather than shouting online. Agba to lomi ninu kin pariwo

idealogical: After decades in Iraq and $Trillions of dollars and thousands of American casualties, the US today is leaving Iraq, the same Iraq which today is practically Iran annex and totally under the control of Iran.
I know when the US went into Iraq to spend their blood and treasure, they didn't know that at the end of the day, it's going to be the same America handing over Iraq to Iran for good.
On top of that, the Kurds used to be American allies and counterweight in Iraq, but Trump already betrayed and abandoned the Kurds in the North and in Syrian.
China, Russia and Iran just concluded a joint Naval drill in the Gulf of Oman, sending a strong message to the US that Iran is not alone.
Iran won round one because they took Iraq without firing a bullet.
After decades in Afghanistan and Trillions of dollars and thousands of American casualties and rhetoric that America don't bargain with terrorists, Trump is today bargaining with the Taliban to leave Afghanistan.
Losing ground, losing influence, losing prestige, losing allies and global territories while siting on the most powerful army and weaponry is nothing to be proud of, it's all about global chess game and America is not winning.
Iran is more powerful in the region today than last week.
Lazy Nigerian youths, learn more, read more and stop peddling fake gist and internet propaganda, the issue is more complex and it's not about the latest weapon or how powerful you are.

He just does not look it at all. I think he is saying the truth. Yeah and it just so happens that he is the only one among ALL the staff of that bank that has a family that they could pick on if he didn't have some relationship with the robbers.
