I noticed that park n Pay has returned to some parts of the city especially around banks.

A court some years ago ruled against the scheme in FCT, I don't why the FCTA administration likes to operate in illegality.

Why are you guys so aggressive about importation?, has it not done enough damage on the economy?
Your understanding of economics seems to be at a primary school level.
Importation doesn't harm economies...Every nation relies on imports for goods that aren't locally available or that are more cost-effective in other countries.

There are industries in countries all over the world that are supported by importation from other countries.
Countries rely heavily on importation for economic growth and development.

Engineers are the worst managers you'll come across in any organization. They lack management skills and have zero knowledge about the complexities of human behavior in organizations.

He's both wrong and right. There are good and bad people everywhere. There are places in the north where you can leave your goods or outside for days and find them intact. Saw with the south.

There are also places you'll be killed and get your goods stolen both in the north and south.

Stop deceiving yourself, even you as a flat headed developer, you will not leave your broken down truck in front of your father's house, because you won't even meet any part of the truck there
The video was made by a northern narrating his experience in the south east.

My house in my father's compound despite not having any security guard has never being burgled or anything stolen from it even when it's only occupied once a year during the yuletide period.
Mind you the house is not fenced ....so yes I can leave valuables in my father's compound for years and still meet them intact.


It's the enterprineurial spirit that pushes most igbos out of igboland not that our land is not conducive or unsafe.

I don't think you understand Hausa language, the man never said anything about leaving the truck in someone's compound.

From the video you can see the truck was not parked in a compound, how do you park a truck that broke down in a compound 😒😒

PoliticsHausa Man Compares Security In Igbo Land And The North by shortgun(op): 12:58am On Dec 06, 2023
The man in the video; a Northern Muslim, who spoke in Hausa narrated how his truck loaded with valuable goods broke down in a village in the south east and he left it there to go get a mechanic and returned after six days.

To his disbelief the battery, and all the valuables he left were all intact after 6 days.
He said the purpose of the video is to challenge his follow northerners to mention any place in the North where someone will abandon a broken down vehicle for 6 days and come back to meet everything intact including the battery and diesel.

He said they have been lied to about Igbo people.

As if his intention to be president is not irritating enough, the illiterate has gut to be talking about national matters. Who the hell asked for his useless opinion? What's his business with Nigeria matters?

Reno Omokri should continue taking the tribalistic crook to the cleaners whenever he utter pim on our national matters. Nonsense and ingredients. angry
He's a Nigerian, he's eminently qualified and has already ran for president.
Take up a dictionary and look up the meaning of illiterate and stop displaying your illiteracy in a public forum.

No sensible person persistently denigrate, ridicule, and mock an ethnic group like Reno is doing to the Igbo community, their culture, and principles..
Reno makes about 10 posts everyday on Twitter insulting igbos and peter obi.
My happiness is that he will never get a response from Peter obi as he's equally been ignored by igbos on Twitter. grin grin grin

So God is the same person as Satan?

No wonder the white man never wanted to end that storyline about Satan because what will they have used to cage a black man forever?
Remember, I mentioned before that understanding God through human thinking is futile.
Can you imagine a being existing simultaneously in every place in the universe at the same time?
Do you know that the human mind with all the advancement in science and space technology can still not comprehend how big the universe is?
Do you know that 80% of the ocean is still unexplored in this 21st century?


Let still give you something to think about.
Have you come across the egg theory?
The egg theory states that God created just one human.
The billions of people that have ever lived, that you have ever interacted with are all the same person reincarnating at different times...meaning all the people in the world is just one person!

Isn't it fascinating wink

Comparing this theory with the Bible account of creation brings up some interesting similarities.

I have hard these lines for so long and you can no longer deceive me with these lines.... the ways of that god that looked on while enslavement was going on for 400yrs can never make sense to me...
The problem you have is that you want to interpret God as being Good.
God is not good or evil

God is good and evil, he created both good and evil....it's in his nature to become the sides of a coin...he can be and evil.
He is so to maintain the balance.... which is the foundation of the universe.
There will be no good without evil
There will be no light without darkness
For good to exist evil must also exist.

That's a lie. Religion only masks your evils and help you hide them well. Today, I prefer to deal with nonreligious people than religious ones. When you see an evil nonreligious person, it's easy to identify him unlike when you see an evil religion person.
This is not true, the thought of a paradise reserved for upright people and the torture of hell for evil people after death have conditioned majority of religious people to remain largely morally upright.
Take away paradise and hell which are the foundations of many religions and the world will become unhabitable.

There is something called in Igbo Language as 'Amama amasi amasi' meaning that there are some things beyond human knowledge.
grin grin grin
Trying to understand God with Human logic, thinking and analysis is futile.

If you ever have an encounter you won't doubt the existence of God forever, I pray you have one.
Ironically, God alone decides who he reveals himself to, who he favors or rejects. How he decides all these is beyond the human mind...
The ways of God will never make sense to the human mind.

There are people who go to church everyday but are still poor, there are also people who go to church everyday that are rich.
There are educated Christians that are poor just as there are educated Christians that are rich.

Understanding God's ways surpasses human capability; deciphering them would diminish His divine nature as the almighty

There is moral and people knew what was wrong and right before the white man came to our land, so morals will return when we get things in order in Africa... don't tell that a man living fine with uninterrupted electricity and good road and all basic amenities at his doorstep will still go ahead and kill to steal.
I agree but morality goes together with justice and equity.
Before the white man we Africans lived in a morally upright and a just society. There was no tribalism, injustice or corruption. Today the story is different, we are divided along ethnic lines and tribalism is the order of the day, no society will make any meaningful progress with this backward thinking.

If 50% of citizens in any country decides to become lawless and frequently engages in criminal actions no amount of law enforcement can save the country.
The number of law enforcement officers in Nigeria is not up to 2million; compare that with 100 million lawless citizens in a country of over 200 million.
Law enforcement will be totally overwhelmed, this is why religion is necessary.

Nigeria is dying economically because of the killing of small businesses and informal enterprises as a result of bigotry and tribalism.
Over 70% of of sustainable employment in sub Saharan African comes from the informal sector and contributes over 60% to the GDP.

You people are shamelessly dumb, even what is glary, you don't know. Even a kid knows state governors control all lands in their state, that's why a governor can sign Governors consent and give state C of O.

Seems you people think everyone is as dumb as you all...the governor of the state owns the lands...but can not act unlawfully...

The Governor of a state doesn't own any land neither does the state Government own any land.
