Nice airport they got right there in Ogun State.
PoliticsRe: Wike’s Threat To Shoot Seun Okinbaloye On Live TV Sparks Outrage by Shikena(m): 3:38pm On Apr 04
Let's stop using misinformation as a tool. The pendulum swings both ways.

This is much ado about nothing and Seun Okinbaloye knows.

Where is Wike's performance report card in FCT between January and March 2026? We are not hearing about projects anymore. That should be the priority, beer parlour talks should be secondary but trust our simpleton journalists.
CelebritiesRe: Blessing CEO Admits Cancer Story Was Fake, Calls Herself "A Celebrity Thief" by Shikena(m): 11:50am On Apr 04
She is finished, not the country.

An average hardworking and honest Nigerian is already outside working diligently. Most of them are not celebrities. No one notices them as they are not newsworthy, they keep moving in spite of daily challenges.

BusinessRe: Nigerian States Return To Borrowing Despite FAAC Windfall by Shikena(m): 2:47pm On Apr 03
Oyo State is shocking to me.

A Seyi Makinde that was widely supported actually led the battle against the independence of local governments. In general, he started on the right track but started deviating with some head-scratching decisions especially in terms of developmental projects. He has done a great job with many roads in Ibadan metro, and some key link roads in Oyo, Iseyin, Ogbomoso etc.

The sour tastes are his actions with regards to the funds meant for local governments, which he has unrepentantly cornered, shady acquisition of lands and properties in Ibadan, mismanagement of issues around federal government intervention fund for Bodija explosion victims, among others.

Warren Buffet is almost 100,he takes 2 cans of coke everyday!
You are right, he actually takes 5 cans in total daily and eats like a 6 year old.

However, here is another useful information:

According to the CDC and the American Diabetes Association:
​"Black adults are approximately 60% more likely to be diagnosed with diabetes than white adults."
HealthRe: That Sweet Bottle Of Soda Might Be Quietly Killing You by Shikena(m): 7:58pm On Apr 01
This is not just for you at individual level, it is also critical for the economic well-being of families in a country where majority are relying on their children as retirement plan. Please have mercy on the younger generation, and younger generation should please have mercy on your unborn children.

The global population is much larger and competition is higher, cost of healthcare is a huge burden and should only be for unavoidable health conditions. Self-inflicted or avoidable health issues should be avoided via healthy habits. Above all, the pain is not desirable.

Reduce the sugar indulgence, stop inhaling filth in the name of smoking, and stop drinking undiluted ogogoro if you must drink. Be disciplined!

We just like telling ourselves lies in this country even when the truth is staring straight at us.

Peller is right on this one.
Totally agree with you. He is also a beggar and he is right. The truth is bitter.
CelebritiesRe: “Yoruba People Beg A Lot” — Peller Faces Backlash Over Controversial Remarks by Shikena(m): 3:28pm On Mar 28
I am Yoruba and I totally agree with him. We have totally pooped on our value system with shameless begging and many of our people today even mock those working diligently.

The truth is bitter by nature and design. Atelewo eni ki tan ni je.
Ise loogun is.
Oruko rere o San ju wura ati fadaka lo.
We have rubbished all these Omoluabi sayings over the years.

Peller himself is a prime example of this decadence, he is a beggar. Yet, it was shocking to see video clips of a young boy harassing him for money in a core traditional Yoruba city like Oyo. Someone like that will have no problem switching to kidnapping and armed robbery.

It is not too late for Yorubas but we should not allow the dishonest ones destroy our values. Unfortunately, most of our palaces are now in the hands of fraudsters and people of weak character with zero integrity.

Noodles those days. I always use just one third of the seasoning due to the salt content. Makes sense with lots of vegetables & salmon.
CareerRe: How Much Do You Need Monthly To Live Comfortably In Nigeria In 2026? by Shikena(m): 1:14pm On Mar 25
Just dey watch them dey laff. Another one mentioned 350k per month for accommodation. Most of these guys are squatters or still living with their parents. They have not seen real life yet.

Real life will teach you the basics that you need for comfortable living, and the differences between basic comfort and full comfort.


LordBiden:
Funny nairalanders.

See everyone mentioning between 500k to millions?

A country where most governors are struggling to implement ordinary 70k minimum wage.

Since all of you are big boys and big girls,I think it is safe to say tinubu is doing well.
PoliticsRe: Hamzat, Yayi, Alli May Emerge APC Consensus Gov Candidates by Shikena(m): 12:08pm On Mar 24
Ali might get the ticket in Oyo by consensus. Aside his strong base in Ibadan, he has worked hard behind the scenes reaching out to key stakeholders in Ibarapa, Oyo, Oke-Ogun and Ogbomoso.

His cause is helped by the difficult alternatives like Adelabu and Folarin.
The major concern is his closeness to Oba Ladoja which may impact votes from Oyo and Oke-Ogun axis in a state where winning margin is always very close. However, feelers indicated that while Oyos & Oke-Oguns are justifiably aggrieved, their traditional bond with Ibadan is as strong as ever making consensus smoother in reality than on paper.

Sadly I have to agree with you on the issue of respect. The way some Yoruba people are shamelessly demarketing their Olubadan, Oluwo, Ooni and Alaafin with full chest and pride is the most disgraceful thing ever. What a wasted generation. They poop on their own heritage just to prove point.

CelebritiesRe: Peller Declared Wanted By Benin Palace. He Reacts (Video) by Shikena(m): 1:11pm On Mar 19
Let's keep in mind that officially all these empires and kingdoms are ceremonial. There are laws of the land.

Be it the two official and well-documented historical empires of Benin and Oyo, and other kingdoms with real or later day fabricated history, they do not have any legal authority beyond local laws.
CelebritiesRe: Peller Declared Wanted By Benin Palace. He Reacts (Video) by Shikena(m): 10:16pm On Mar 18
Mr Omuemu means Mr Palmwine Drinker in Yoruba language grin

“A staff member of the Benin Traditional Council, identified as Mr Omuemu, has been detained by the Nigeria Police Force. He has been charged in court for causing a breach of the peace and abetting the unauthorised entry.

PoliticsRe: Petroleum Price Surges To N1400 Per Litre As Nigerian Government Keeps Mum by Shikena(m): 1:24pm On Mar 10

The people that suffers most of this hardship are they those people that you mentioned, you think those people that buys cars worth thousands of dollar cares whether if fuel goes to 5k per litre.
Key part of owning/using a vehicle is fueling it, cars are expensive and oil, or even electricity, is not cheap.

Bottomline: Economic planning must be strategic and not piece-meal.

This debate captures the core tension in Nigeria’s current economic climate - the gap between social reality (how people live across different income levels) and market reality (how global trade works).

$7 per litre in USA

Keep blaming tinubu
This is not true.

Gas price depends on where you live. Even the price varies around you.
Gas is still less than $1 per liter for regular type in many places.

You still see less than $3 a gallon at Walmart, for example, depending on where you live.

A gallon is almost 4 liters.
