How do you choose what you don't like?

Isn't that cancerous

Amotolongbo:
You made sense talking about learning skill after secondary and going for part time tertiary institution learning.
Many of the British citizens don’t bother furthering after high school, they go to college to learn skills and modern apprenticeship

One, because it is too expensive and gets them into debt.

Two, because there is dignity in labor. If you go and learn a trade that will use to eat, no one will look down on you.

Three, because they respect institutions and what they stand for.

They are not perfect but just saying.

Oga, you are either trying to compare Apples with Bananas or trying to show your knowledge of " a bit of Nigerian history". Why bring MILADs into the conversation.? Those are military appointments for goodness sake.

You cannot compare that in a democracy especially for people to elect their leader amongst themselves.

We know even more than the names you are even mentioning.

At to educate you further, some MILADs ruled their states of origin.

Oladipo Diya ruled Ogun.
Shehu Dangiwa ruled Kaduna.

My focus is on language here my friend or sir. I know Makinde himself had this challenge to speaking well in Yoruba. It is not an attempt to justify not speaking the language. I let the person know that some people have governed the states without speaking the language.

Charmingrascal:
If not mental illness how can he want to govern a Yoruba state without knowing how to speak the language of the people he wants to govern.
Mumu say ke pa labalaba, labalaba ko, tata ni.
He has a whole 4 years to learn Yoruba, one of the most simple languages to understand in Nigeria but he is not serious with his life.
He can speak Igbo he should go and be governor in Anambra.

Godwin Obaseki, Donald Duke and Ambrose Alli are a few to mention. They all became governors. Maybe you forget that Marwa was once MILAD of Lagos, so was it in other places of Nigeria.

Group Captain Ike Nwosu was deployed as the MILAD of Oyo State (the heart of the old Western Region) and later Osun State between 1993 and 1996. He did not speak a word of Yoruba, ruling entirely via military commands and civil service structures.

Colonel Ahmed Usman from Kog was posted to govern Oyo State and Ondo State during the height of the pro-democracy NADECO crises in the 1990s. He spoke no Yoruba.

Abacha deployed Navy Captain Joseph Adeusi (Posted to Akwa Ibom, then Akwa Ibom to Imo State – 1996–1998), a Yoruba officer from Ondo State to rule Imo State.

Colonel Anthony Oyearugbulem (Posted to Ondo, then Katsina State - 1998-1999) was an Igbo man from Imo State that governed a Yoruba state (Ondo). The military junta transferred him to Katsina State (deep Northern Hausa/ Fulani territory) and he spoke absolutely no Hausa and had to manage a strict traditional Islamic society entirely in English during the transition period to democracy.

Samuels90:
I was surprised why he would use that. Whoever wrote that speech should have looked for something different. The analogy dosent just sit well

Indirectly talking down on Buhari’s Govt. And the same APC. Nigerian politicians are just dumb heads!

Let me humour you with some historical references.

On November 29, 2021, the then National Chairman-elect of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prof. Iyorchia Ayu, described the President Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress (APC) administration as the biggest cancer afflicting Nigeria.

emkz:
The cancer analogy was unnecessary.

I concur. Absolutely unnecessary and demeaning. It's even funny that those who want to cure the cancer seek medical help abroad. What a country

Wike who once called APC a cancer is currently helping to cure it

They once told us to fry akara, it's time to look into our vegetables, maybe it will cure the cancer 🌿 😌

Hahaha this sounds like a joke

I don't like to read AI articles. They are too dramatic and boring.

I was searching for my old post on this topic, I came across naptu2's posts and anyone can make of it what they wish to because I could see the difference in the two but let's keep at it

A certain Nigerian president doesn't have a single class mate.

He graduated with a first class degree but his classmates don't remember him? 🤡🎓

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Tf65EGOAgo

Old solider Buhari showed us his classmates, these ones want to pull a wool over our eyes. Yeye

Here's what the lackeys say and you can see them repeating it here 👇

Richtaiwo:
Tinubu graduated from Chicago State University. If you want to see his classmates, go to US and stop typing bulshit on social media. Besides, jaundiced opinion is inconsequential. Don't quote me again because you won't see my response. I don't have time for stupid argument.

Am I surprised? Anyone who can steal Donald Duke's photo as a child for their bio tells you a lot about the extent they can go to paint black as white.

SixSeven:
🔼 If you think what I wrote above is not true, look at what I found recently 👇

Look at the first two photos of Obi on PM news.

AMINDA burst the fake news and showed them the original.

You can say it is politics and let's ignore it but it's more than that. If people are willing to lie against someone and put another person's picture in the name of politics, think about how Donald Duke's picture was used in this man's documentary.

That's why his lawyer said go and ask him where he schooled yourself.

Seun: Does the President have evidence that he went to school, or did he homeschool for primary and secondary school?

Babatunde Ogala: The president will answer your questions when you ask him.

This is the same country where Salisu Buhari's lawyer, the legendary Chief Rotimi Williams (san), advised him to drop his 500 million libel suit and confess to his crime. In 1999, the newly elected Speaker of Nigeria's House of Representatives, Salisu Buhari, was exposed by The News magazine for forging his age (claiming to be 36 when he was 29) and his academic credentials, including a fake degree from the University of Toronto. This was a country where lawyers will tell you what the right thing was.


This people are showing you who they are so I cannot blame them. If you continue to select them, then your children will learn from you and what you tolerate as standards.


Someone is talking about his biography but doesn't have his own childhood picture. You think these things don't matter? On this thread, I asked them what does he do for a living?

They said I will wail tire. To them, everything in this life is money. They are so poor, money is the only thought of life to them. Hmmmmm

If we crush the seed of integrity just to celebrate the chaff, what will our children eat when the famine of character arrives?

Abeg talk another thing e.

If she didn't feel the need to hawk her market by claiming Queen Chastity, I'd have believed this.

The things we normalize now sha eh... Sex used to be one secret sacred thing. Soon, for the sake of content them go dey talk about the act of sex, size of their partner's Dike, and all details for a few kliks.

The mods keep promoting bloggers for content, one of the many problems we have.

Oh? It's the National Theatre that's Wole Soyinka Center? I was struggling to understand thinking it was in Ogun State or somewhere. That's going to take some time to get used to.

RightToReject:
Before you enthocentrics and little people in general pit Dangote against other highly respect traditional rulers in Nigeria, take note that the statement "Ooni Is Our Most Highly Respected Traditional Ruler From Nigeria.” isn't the same thing as "Ooni Is Our Most Highly Respected Traditional Ruler In Nigeria.”

Based on the phrasing, Ooni is considered the most respected specifically among the Traditional Rulers who come from Nigeria for the event in Kenya.

So, the phrasing doesn't mean that Ooni is the Most Traditional Ruler In Nigeria.

I totally agree with you, thanks for having the time to explain it. You know they taught us Comprehension in English language but na now we go know who get D7 for WAEC.




Comprehension is the mental act or capacity of grasping meaning, understanding information, or integrating new ideas with existing knowledge.
Core Definitions and Contexts
• General Meaning: The ability to understand completely, perceive by reason, or make sense of a situation, text, or spoken language.

• Reading & Education: Known as reading comprehension, it is the process of extracting and reflecting on meaning from written text rather than just pronouncing words.

• Logic: The total set of properties or qualities that define a concept, which stands in contrast to its extension (the objects the concept applies to).

• Computer Science: Refers to a compact syntax used to generate collections or lists (such as list comprehension in Python).

• Synonyms: Understanding, intellect, perception, insight, and discernment.

MrSly:
Stop already. I don't feed from his money. The last I check he eats from mine. I patronise him, he doesn't patronise me. So right now I am more important to him than he is to me.

When money is everything to some people, they can't think of self esteem. It's sold already.

AdegbemiroX:
One of...he wanted to say.

Na slip of tongue.

In the context he said it, he does not need to say ONE OF. Context matters. He is in Kenya, you Nigerians can be arguing about that, to the public there in Kenya, what Dangote said needs no further adjustment.

DickenClarq:
What is even the use for such unnecessary parade?

None of the previous parades have ever scared the terrorist ravaging our country. In facts they are even planning to attack and steal those beautiful parade uniforms the soldiers are wearing.

We are in democracy and civilian government. Let us leave parade for military regime.

The soldiers should go and do their parades on Bandits and Terrorist in the North.


May God help us

Yeah we know how you guys are trying to change the script. Surprise my fellas, he's the C in C for a reason, Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, not Commander in Theif.

When Peter Obi presents himself as Angel, it de-markets the rest of us (politicians).



Accountability is hard. An Osinbajo or Fashola could have done what PO is doing and they are also no saints like Obi but there is standard in governance, that's what these folks lack. Our politicians in the 60s had high standards and public conduct as people in charge of our affairs. These ones today have gone rogue, that's why Obi's attitude looks like he's a saint. If they go back to the way our founding fathers conducted themselves, Obi will make you look like nothing special. After all, this same Obi and Osinbajo were both vice to their partners in 2019. You can't give what you don't have.

I wrote it here and there that the so-called new sheriff in town perfume Lai Muhammed was making noise for, it was Osinbajo who wore that perfume when he was acting and the difference was clear. I've watched Obi's interviews, the decorum and respect he shows his host is enough to know that you can't fake it. Otherwise, e go don cast since when dem vex am. He has been put in several scenarios and events to know that he is consistent but I only watched Daily Trust interview and NBA conference for instance and Amaechi did not prove me wrong. There is a reason why the President does not talk to us. We all know why. He would have done plenty damage to his image because out of the abundance of the heart speaketh the mouth. All is fair in politics Dave

It's funny when they insist on this. The joke is in French. you went to France but your host, your peer, their president left you at home. If that doesn't tell you anything, you can never respect yourself.

AbosedeFalade:
You're a tribalist. You and your type, who have made tribalism a thing, are the problem Nigeria has. The person who spread false news about Adekunle Gold and Simi's daughter is Samuel Adeboye Adeyeye.

The person who spread false news about Paul Okoye (Rudeboy) is Victoria Ayomide Agboola.

My verdict, the defamer (troll) of Tony Elumelu's wife should be dealt with. In fact, death to all defamers and tribalists.

Reposting as your response came with clean receipts.

Thank you. Tribalists are terrible.

naptu2:
Apparently Deriko has posted false information about a lot of people and he knew that the authorities were tracking him, so he sent messages to several of his friends that he might be arrested and that Ahmed would be responsible for his arrest. This means that he has also posted false information about Ahmed.

First, who goes to the station taking pictures like this?
I know it's AI but you know the part that is annoying me the most? It's this👇


Sir, I know he was wrong. Please forgive him. It was a very silly mistake, and it will not happen again.

It's not a silly mistake. People should learn to take responsibility and accountability. That's why you are an adult. It's not a silly mistake. It's an intentional mistake, it's mischief and it's deliberate. It's malicious and you must pay for it. Forgiveness is for God.

So much riches yet so much poverty. Something is not adding up.

Stephen0mozzy:
Everytime I see the buffonieriey of this biological mishap, all that comes to my mind is - what is the price of a man's soul - what does it take for a man to say an emphatic No to using his brains?

It makes me skeptical of people forming activist today. In the face of power, all of una go still go the Bwala way.

AustineE1:
This is getting more interesting,imagine your president on a 'working'visit to France,and had to bid his host farewell when he was leaving for the US for UNGA,which is a meeting of presidents of various nations in the US.
God abeg,who did this to Nigeria,imagine what will be going on in the mind of the president of France and other responsible nations.
This is the highest demarketing of a nation by it's own president,what a shame.
In higher climes,this is an impeachable offense but this is Nigeria,which has been turned to a Banana republic by APC.

He should have done au revoir to Macron before he left for US.

If that NDC guy is contesting for Rivers governorship, then they are wasting his time. The media people have to be 24/7 committed to the job, they can't have another side hustle that will take their attention away.
