Our own marriage in yoruba land no get wahala. Just give am belle, bring SCHNAPPS, shikena. You carry am and take one room for your papa house, loba tan.
Remember, we yoruba invented BABY MAMA, now, ki la tun fe fi marriage se again ?

Yoruba demon no send anybody

Agugbadin:
This is not true. Nwike lost because Tambuwal gave his North West 182 votes to Atiku. It has nothing to do with Obigbo.

You think they don't know the truth? They are known to define their own truth differently.

As someone pointed out, they are conveniently ignoring the fact the majority of the 100 delegates from SE did not vote for SE aspirant.

Even Karma sef go bow for Atiku's legendary delegates dollars.

With or without karma, no one is beating Atiku in PDP. Even Peter Obi's 'good' karma saw dollars and pick race.

BigIyanga:
Not necessarily true..Good neighborhoods like Hyde Park- University of Chicago, Hyde Park, Bronzeville, etal are good.
From her story, it looks like they started as illegal immigrants before receiving assylum status..
Life as illegal immigrant is tough everywhere.. but Chicago is a sanctuary city.. cops dont bother about ur immigration status. Also, IL gives illegal immigrants drivers licensee so long as you show proof of living in the state for 6months
At home depot on 87th and Dan Ryan.. Hispanic day laborers charge minimum of $200\day for the shortest labour. Go and hustle with them.
Also Chicago has the most connected public transport system in the US.. after NYC. You can travel the whole city with $7/day.
Maybe they were hoping for a life full of roses as Illegal... not happening in the US.

Thank you.

Sorry Mr Clueless Journalist, Tinubu has always been fully aware that PDP ticket was a no contest. Forget all the laughable stuff going on online about Obi and co, who else would have won PDP's ticket in real life?

Kalashnikov49:
Na today everybody wey dey Lagos know say OKADA na societal menace?

Its because LEKKI was a part in the current mayhem, and the area is home to the influential in Lagos. That is why all this useless paparazzi is being activated.All the people maimed/harassed and killed by these useless almajri all over Lagos dont matter abi?..Thunder!!...spits!!

Now Tinubu is loosing APC nomination, so he wants to ban bikes and cart pushers, so as to get back at the North. See useless afonja counter-punch. Tinubu will loose and his hold on lagos will be scattered by the same Atiku, Tinubu zombies called Atiku...Tufiakwa

Sometimes it's better to just keep quiet. Not every random thought that crosses your mind are facts that must be shared with people.

Why would they think it's all rosy abroad? Everybody I know abroad always make it a point that it's not easy out there. On what basis are people thinking it's easy? It was not based on what the actual people on ground tell them.

Those thinking it's easy are looking at people who have weathered the initial storm abroad and are comfortable enough to come back home and invest, which is hardly the case with anyone who has barely spent 5 years abroad and with no clear path to success. There was a thread on Nairaland several years ago on this where folks moving abroad were advised to relax, pick a clear path (via education, training, vocation etc) and work diligently until they are certified/licensed. The system will always reward you. Some get to America and start chasing small money without any long term plan, get carried away then they get stuck and after more than 10 years of seeing others who are focused leave them behind they start wishing they never left Nigeria.

By the way, African American unemployment rate is currently placed between 5.9% and 6.5%. Where is the shock?
That means if you have 100 African Americans, at least 93 are employed. Be assured that the rate is way better for Nigerian immigrants.

nabeelbabs:
Replies on this page are saddening and funny as well

I just shake my head cus i know shes telling nothing but the truth.

Alot of people think its all rainbows outside Nigeria, they think immediately you "Japa" you make it. This is a common stupid silly throught from people who never traveled abroad.

Yes of course there are opportunities out their but is not always. Dont be surprised you will be a victim of racial profiling and discrimination, check the rates of unemployment of African American in the us you'll be shocked. Even if you lucky to get a job, taxes, rent, bills will leave you drained. Only then you will realize working their is slavery.

Except if your parents are wealthy, influential, have good connects OR God decides its your destiny to make it outside, for a poor man to "japa" you will live abroad for 50 years, come back with nothing to show.

Its what we say in hausa "ka sake reshe ka amo ganye"

That's nice.
I hope he won't withdraw from the race one week to the general election citing issues with our electoral process (that have always been there since 1960 and there when he became became governor) as excuse.

Maxymilliano:
My grouse with this interview is how he left out Tinubu's name completely in the entire narration.

Somebody watered the ground and paved the way for him, Aregbe and Amosun were just the purveyors.

Sometimes we should question our assumptions. Maybe the man was only confirming the rarely acknowledged story that he was not nominated by Tinubu without trying to be outrightly disrespectful? Our assumptions are not always true.

Jokerman:
Real Madrid.... I for fear.

Chelshit lasan lasan

Fear catch me too. Imagine that small team winning on aggregate today

You are spot on.

Until we know the full story but...

... when you are showing your mother in-law pepper, keep in mind that your own son would get married and you become mother in-law too.

Fabricated story or not, Nigeria would have been a far better place today all round if decisions like this are always promptly and decisively adhered to right from the onset of stupid behavior. Every nation is built up from the family unit. We are messed today because we messed up the homefront with entitled morons all over the place.

obiekunie01:
oga pls dont delude yourself!

Timothy Adegoke an OAU Postgrad student was murdered in a 4-star hotel he lodged named Hilton Honors hotel in Ile-ife!

He was murdered and his body parts was butchered in the hotel.

Just be careful sir. CRAZY UNBELIEVABLE THINGS ARE HAPPENING!

4-star? That hotel is definitely not 4-star and most likely not in any way associated with Hilton franchise (*I have verified that the hotel is not part of Hilton as I suspected, it's obvious).

TOPCRUISE:
Up to 95 percent of people on this forum celebrated the sack of Rhor and appointment of Eguavoen as coach. Yet the same percentage are the ones lambasting him for not qualifying the super eagles to the world cup.

Do a good job and you will be celebrated, simple. There is no magic or long winded story to it.

Iyaebe:
You already promised her,so fulfill your promise and you shall be rewarded for it.Please her in every way you can

Rewarded by who? Please help if you are comfortable with it and never because of reward. Help is help, not a business deal.

Her reaction speaks volumes. Run!

ivolt:
Now that you have a party that does not dance to the gallery and does
whatever it likes, why are you still complaining?

I am not complaining

When you waste 16 good years in power dancing to the gallery, you deserve everything thrown at you. However, we are no longer fooled by the demarcation. You are all the same and at the end of the day, after all micro and macro analysis, PDP = APC and it's Nigeria that is the loser! Shikena!

Pearl1910:
But seriously, why did these guys leave PDP in 2014/2015 to support APC in the first place? And why did they leave APC again back to PDP? Is it just about personal power and ego or it's something bigger.

When are some of you ever going to understand that there is no difference between PDP and APC? Or you think some people were born APC or born PDP?

Let's call a spade a spade. The Abolore guy was flat out wrong, but what's up with this massive hypocrisy going on here by people who have openly celebrated the death of others here?

Hammyaladin:
This is a sponsored attack. It's too glaring. From Abuja kaduna road to this. It is well.

And one guy from Cameron hasn't condemn d actions yet.

Isn't it obvious?
The cup of the sponsors go soon full.

SeriouslySense:
i am almost laughing too much, so funny.

I know, when an elderly person came with that position I actually rejected it vehemently until I realized that it's the fact. Name each of our past presidents and look closely at what happened under each of them.

They all become experts and great statesmen after they get out of office (e.g. the dictator Obasanjo) but they never had the will for real structure when in power e.g. look at ASUU demands and Education Trust Fund that is at the root of the issue. GEJ was well aware of this, did it get resolved? Now, today we have a professor very conversant with that issue as VP. Is the issue getting addressed? That is just one out of a myriad of issues you find on your desk as President on Day 1 at Aso Rock

SeriouslySense:
okay, so where is the starting point to put the structure, so all will work

That's always the big question under each and every government we have had

Paulianfa:
Super Eagle don break my heart

We are winning!

Nigeria is the best. Great move, great penalty

teepain:
Unfortunately, the buck stops at his stable and he was the one that was elected by the people. The service chiefs serve at the pleasure of the President, so if they fail to do their bit and he refuses to relieve them and appoint people who can do their jobs effectively, who do you blame?

I agree. We need a much more efficient structure with good measure of accountability to sustain a presidential system of government. We are yet to build such a structure since independence and that's why we still struggle with sustainability regardless of who is at the helms.

teepain:
Very anyhow somebody. Did he just discover the importance of surveillance of critical national assets?! Is it not too late in the day?

Is it really the president that should discover that?

Bloggers know their audience very well. Majority of our people don't read. Even with people explaining what really happened, morons are still commenting based on the headlines.

Nchenches:
The figments of your imagination may be your real life experience in Nigeria's politics.

Sorry it's not.
