Men in relationship and marriage have a lot of work to do on the psychology of their women. Men who assume their women will always act like responsible adults and make wise decisions often end up learning difficult lessons. |
OP, don’t joke with the power of the comment section on any social media platform. See it as free brainstorming, where people from different walks of life come together to discuss a problem. Yes it can be chaotic, but if you’re a critical thinker it’s easy to filter out the irrelevant opinions and pick out valuable insights. You think doctors are not on the comment section? |
BarrElChapo:For the fact that the girl is not a virgin at 14 and was already sleeping with men before meeting the pastor shows she was raised in a dysfunctional family. You don't have to the emotional about it ![]() |
zenburster:Oga shut it. A14 year old girl that is not a virgin clearly shows failed parenting. Instead for me to raise a girl child that would be sleeping with different men at 14 I'll rather not bring children to this world. Nonsense ![]() |
IsraeliAIRFORCE:Noo, I am saying it's not her first time |
..and the 14 year old is not even a virgin. |
Wickedtruths:Kenneth Okonkwo was never an aspirant. He did not buy the APC governorship nomination and expression of interest forms for the Enugu governorship race. He claimed he missed the deadline while seeking a waiver from the party....he wanted the form to given to him for free. To be recognized as an aspirant, you must buy form ooh |
Kenneth okonkwo has never contested any election in his life. In fact, he has never been an aspirant, he doesn't know the color of a nomination form for councilorship.. |
Peter Obi will stop all these nonsense and I also trust NMA to retaliate quietly but effectively. There was a time police officers treated a doctor in a similar manner and hospitals were directed not to treat police officers or their relatives. The retaliation was so effective that the police eventually came begging and promised never to harass doctors again. I can see history repeating itself.. |
Teargas in a Hospital, a Thoughtless Act. I have just read the recent troubling reports of how the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) allegedly stormed the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital in a bid to arrest Professor Eyo Ekpe, a professor of cardiothoracic surgery and deputy chairman of the hospital’s medical advisory committee. Reportedly, the EFCC operatives who stormed the hospital shot some teargas canisters within the hospital premises which sent medical staff and patients running for safety. This thoughtless act greatly compromised the general safety in the hospital environment and further jeopardised the health of the medical personnel and the sick people in the hospital. I have always said that the most fundamental intangible asset upon which any nation functions effectively is the rule of law and order. The disorderliness allegedly demonstrated by the EFCC operatives at the hospital must not be encouraged. Nothing justifies the use of teargas canisters in a fragile hospital environment. Do we not realise that our hospitals are part of our most critical contributors to development? We must also learn to respect the lives and dignity of our citizens. If a Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery is arrested in such a demeaning manner in a hospital environment, what signals are we sending to other medical professionals working hard to keep our health sector afloat? It is reported that Nigeria has only 80 cardiothoracic surgeons serving its 230 million people, and the Prof Eyo Ekpe is the only one in Akwa Ibom State. Let us learn to do better. Let us condemn and eschew the rascality and disorderliness that have continued to characterise some of our public offices and bring in civility in the discharge of our duties. A New Nigeria is POssible. -POsource

Someone should gift Elliott the book 48 laws of power and also make sure he reads it |
The UK is always quick to prosecute southerners for corruption but Northerners who have stolen trillions since 1960 are never prosecuted. ![]() The recharge card vendor, who later became Buhari's private secretary stole trillions and he's hiding in the same UK |
yarimo:Same Niger state is bigger than the whole southwest. So what exactly is your point? |
Old format. A cement dealer and contractor. We know them from the first minute they say hello on the phone ![]() |
They have been feeding fat on public funds for decades. |
You are missing the whole point. Employers in Nigeria often require mix expectations.... they want degree credentials, technical certifications and demonstrable skills at the same time. Many entry-level roles in banking, telecoms, oil and gas and even public sector jobs still require at least a Bachelor’s degree as a baseline regardless of whether the role is practical or not. On top of that, additional certifications like ICAN (accounting), COREN (engineering), PMP (project management), IT certifications, or professional diplomas often matter more for employability than the academic distinction between university and polytechnic. In fact, in many sectors in Nigeria, a Master’s degree is not about deep research at all it is often used as an added advantage in saturated job markets a requirement for promotion in public service and academia a bridge into specialised field. Your claim that Master’s or PhD holders are unemployable because they lacked intelligence or perseverance clearly shows your ignorance. Unemployment in Nigeria is not primarily a reflection of academic capability, it is driven by labour market absorption capacity, economic cycles, nepotism networks and sectoral mismatch. There are many highly competent graduates across all levels who remain underemployed simply because the system does not generate enough quality jobs. Same Nigerian graduates excel in different parts of the world. |
Exactly what they did to a doctor one time and all doctors were directed not to treat police officers or their relatives in any hospital. They later came begging, I guess they have not learned any lesson |
Many Yorubas are appointed as special assistants by governors in the south east and you won't hear any noise about it but once an Igbo person is given the same opportunity in a Yoruba state it becomes an issue. Adenike Okebu is the senior Special Assistant on Revenue to Peter Mbah of Enugu State. The Special Adviser on Health Matters to Enugu State Governo is Yomi Jaye. Two Yorubas appointment by one Igbo state, yet no noise |
nedekid:Your comment is exactly the kind of mindset that is killing entrepreneurship and business growth in Nigeria. Imagine generalizing over 200 million people and boldly saying “it is not in our nature as Nigerians to pay loans.” Where did you get this statistics from? What you said is nothing but bitterness mixed with stereotypes. The truth is simple, Nigerian banks are extremely reluctant to support small and medium businesses unless you already have money, connections or heavy collateral. Many account officers disappear immediately loan is mentioned because they already assume the average person is not worth the stress. That was the exact point I was making. Banks love rich customers, not struggling entrepreneurs. They still give the loans to fat bank account holders who still default. The moment my account balance grew elsewhere and my business starts succeeding without them, suddenly they began calling, checking up on me and offering products. Is that not an irony? What many bankers in Nigeria do is to approve loans only to themselves or cronies. Yes some people misuse loans. That happens everywhere in the world, not only in Nigeria. There are Americans, Europeans, Asians and Africans who default on loans daily. But reducing an entire country to onigbese behavior is dishonest and intellectually lazy. The funny thing is that these same banks themselves write off billions in insider loans owed by politically connected people but become ruthlessly aggressive when chasing ordinary Nigerians over small business loans. So spare us the moral lecture. Today many Nigerian businesses have developed alternative financing ecosystems outside the traditional banking sector. Banks are supposed to be central to capital allocation and business expansion. However, when financial institutions become structurally detached from productive sectors of the economy, businesses naturally adapt by building parallel survival mechanisms outside the formal credit system. Nigerian banks will eventually face institutional decline within the business lifecycle framework. Like firms in the maturity-to decline phase, institutions that fail to innovate, efficiently allocate capital or maintain relevance to emerging economic actors will die off naturally. I can tell you for free that the banking sector has become irrelevant in this economy where businesses increasingly have learned to survive and scale without them |
Cum4me:it's just hormonal imbalance or high prolactin levels...thats the the hormone that produces milk. It can rise due to stress, hormone imbalance or pituitary gland issues. |
Access bank will direct you to an account officer who will never pick your call again immediately you mention loan. It doesn't matter how viable the business is, they will never reply your mails, chats or ever return your calls. But when the funds finally came from another source I use them do yeye taya ![]() |
TossTos:Peter Obi is a man of integrity. You should be happy because he's coming to rescue Nigeria |
I was in the best polytechnic and one of the best universities in Nigeria. I studied engineering. Just dead the matter if you've not attended both. The skills you talk about is a big hoax. You have to have been in both to understand.You are a liar. Polytechnic graduates in Nigeria are considered stronger than university graduates in several practical and technical areas, especially in industries that value hands-on ability over theory. |
....and with all these he didn't invent anything to help humanity in anyway. What a waste ![]() |
Auxtan:You can say that again. Just avoid NOUN if you can't study hard |
It's against the provisions of the constitution of the federal Republic of Nigeria. Null and void |
The police is not ready yet. Why transfer them to neighboring states close to Delta state? Why were they transferred to only Anambra, IMO, abia and Edo State. |
They obviously brutally tortured this guy beyond imagination. These are some of the price citizens must be willing to pay for a better country. |
Some things should just be ignored |
GT bank lost credibility many years ago. The bank is yet to pay innoson the billions they owe him |
Reno omokri the charlatan can't decide for sane Nigerians. They thought they'll be able to cage Obi but Obi has plan A,B,C,D,E,F.. ![]() |
