These are two conflicting statements.

Wike says Tinubu's re-election will be easier than 2023 but in the same breath, he says "each day I sleep, I am thinking about the president’s re-election. When I am eating, I think about the president’s re-election. Everything I am doing now is about the president’s re-election."

In other words, "Tinubu has to win or I am finished." Wike should be sleeping like a baby since 2027 is already a done deal. Rather, he is restless because he has murdered sleep.

Hmmmm your last line. Murdered sleep

Bankowner:
Oga! You're simply not being clear about what you're saying. Article says Ramsey was thought to be of eastern origin, maybe because he is in Nollywood, but he came out to say he is of Lebanese and Yoruba origin. So what exactly is the point I'm missing? Better still, what exactly is YOUR POINT?

Again, reading is different from comprehension. I believe my words were clear enough but if they weren't, sorry about that.

oaktown101:
That is great. I hope it work out.

I hope so too because they blamed the power at the center for years but this is the 11th year both FG and state are from same party

SixSeven:
They don't give you anything in return but courageous of them to tax you.
Nigerians have normalized living with generators that people don't know how clownish they are when they explain it away.

We built Lagos indeed.

One of the things that never impressed me about Tinubu and I choose Tinubu because he had the chance to change this back then in the 99 - 07, was the failure to make Lagos Water Corporation supply the state. That was a monumental failure if you recognize how much Jakande did in 4 years for a Lagos of our dreams. Pure water made its debut in Lagos around the early 2000s. Government watched on. If you were a child who took water from the tap on the public, raise your hands up 🙌 If a government, whether it's Tinubu or not cannot provide the basic infrastructure such as water, light and good roads, F9 ❌ Yesterday, someone said luxurious is the most abused word used in Nigeria today. And the person said they use the term luxury because most Nigerians have not been given the basics or experienced it before so anyone can say their solar is luxury 😔 The defenders of the government never experienced anything better, so they think defending the government is better and constructive criticism is bitter!

Now, the IPP Tinubu fought Obasanjo for, Lagos has the golden chance to generate its electricity and do far better than what Abia's Orji is currently bragging about, but instead of them to ask questions, they prefer all of you to be fighting ethnic and religious fights so they can never be held accountable. Who loses? You the foolish people who let politicians play their cards on you. Lagos is trying to keep the environment clean when Fashola did his home work. Sanwoolu is still struggling with administering a clean city. Ambode came and visionscaped everything away. Yet, they say they had a masterplan. Fashola also blamed the FG for the electricity independence and they finally got to power in 2015. They've been there for years, no opposition but light up Lagos is what Sanwo-Olu is celebrating in 2026 after Ambode made that his first 100 days project in 2015. Make it make sense. Your leaders are evil. Instead of serving you, they corner your resources and always want to settle contractors so the money can come back to them. No light, no water. Bad environment, bad water. Bad waste, dirty water. Chai.

You all are comfortable with sleeping with your oppressors.

You provide your own electricity (generator)
You provide your own water (bore hole)
You provide your own road (patch)
You provide your own housing (build your own)
You provide your own drinking water (pure water)
You provide your own waste management system
And they tax you upon all of these. You must be so in love with yourself that you will allow a government abuse you this much. They tax you for not doing their jobs. Oyo State wanted to tax those who dug boreholes but they were quiet about the negligence of the state to provide water to the people. And they had an engineer as Governor. Your politicians are very very very very wicked people.

REPOST

Meta said you should talk to your neighbours as if they can hear you. That's how you know artificial intelligence from real. Have we tried talking to our governments? How Nigerians became comfortable with this thing is insane, some people use industrial generators that work with diesel. Now everyone is going solar too because of government negligence. Tinubu himself changed the power supply at the Villa to solar. GCFR

Generator noise is not the loudest of your problems, it is the fumes that are the silent killers and probably one of the reasons for the increase in cancer cases in Nigeria without us knowing. Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a major component of fuel generator fumes. Carcinogenicity of these compounds has long been established. Those pollutants are not safe for your air and direct contact with your skin, water and environment. Imagine sitting behind the exhaust of a vehicle. That's what we are doing to ourselves.
If you cannot sleep well because of the noise, your health is affected. If you cannot hear well, because of the noise, your hearing is affected.
If you cannot breathe well because of the smoke, your health is affected. If you have the money, switch to solar but what sense does that make if you still live in an environment where your neighbours still use generators? You see why Nigerians need to solve this problem as a collective instead of doing I beta pass my neighbour competition.


Who did this to us All I want to say is they don't even care about us

The luxury of time you had when you were single isn't the same when married especially when you have kids

LordLicifer:
Of course, in all contexed, women are created to distract us men, that is their goal in this life. however, it depends on how you far you allow them to distract you.


I love women! they love me! okay maybe i think i understand them but so far it's hasn't gone awfully wrong for me with women.

I love women too. That makes the two of us buy my friend, don't forget the saying

HELL HATH NO FURY LIKE A WOMAN SCORNED

LordLicifer:
Maybe the ones you have met or SOME nigerian women i have come across hundreds of women slept with many of them, women are the most loyal being on earth, the most nicest than men. Yes women are manipulative in all ways but to advice us to leave them alone is damn right ignorant men cannot live without women, Men are nothing without women. If we, men leave women alone should we marry Men, sleep with Men?


Women made my life better, women have helped me more than men in everything i have done in life. As i said, just understand them, you will enjoy women.

You are correct to an extent but the context in which that person wrote leave them alone is to not let them distract you or am I mistaken?

SixSeven:
Men need women, no matter how much they pretend about it. Men go to wars for women and kill themselves for women. That's why women get a free pass even in war but fellow men will X his male counterpart because he is a threat to his colonization of women.

You think you understand women? Okay na

LordLicifer:
What do you mean leave women alone? our mothers, sisters, daughters and aunties are women. If every body took this advice you are giving we would not be born, our sisters, aunties and daughters would turn lesbians.


If anything, men are worse than women. Women are the easiest to get on with if you understand them

You will never understand women, including your mother and sisters. Why do you think men are surprised with how things turn out when they marry and bring their mom home? You gonna learn
What women say and what they do, it's up to you to not take it to the bank IYKYK.

It's to a man's advantage to know how women think though so read the Manipulated Man.

I shouldn't be saying this but let me write it

Don't join cult

I wrote it like that. It's one of the stupidest thing to do and waste your youth and energy on.

When you leave school, there are other types of cults but don't join anyone of them. They all want to control you.

Investing in yourself yields the best returns. Invest in your education.
Invest in your religion and spirituality.
Invest in your learning and develop your skills.
Invest in your health. It's very important.

No knowledge is wasted. No talent is useless.

Expect no help from anyone and never feel entitled. Always remember that men are providers, I'm sorry but that's the reality. Your value as a man is tied to how many resources you can acquire.

Don't be too greedy for things of this world. Never let anyone intimidate you with material things. Never ever ever be desperate for anything, including women.

This guy has been claiming half Jew , half Ibo forever .

Why did he change his ancestry all of a sudden?

👇

Konquest:
Bump.

Ramsey Olatokunbo Nouah.
He's got an Israeli biological father and a Yoruba biological mother from Ondo city, Ondo State.

PulaPower:
It’s not only you, but almost all of you. And the reason why is simply cuz, back the when Igbo claimed they were ontop of Nollywood, for you to get a movie role and acceptance, you must either be Igbo or act Igbo..

The likes of Ramsey Noah, Segun Arinze acted along. It was why many of you didn’t know..

Acted along

I smile in the new masquerade's costume. I read his interviews, I watched them. Maybe I was too enlightened above these trivialities


Let me quote this 2006 post here on Nairaland

TerraCotta:
Say no more. The guy no gree for your Arnold assessment--Schwartzenegger is the king for him .

All in all, the wording of this post is deliberately controversial. Orikinla seems to be trying to rile up some dischord by splitting acting talent according to ethnicity. I'd be offended by the way he phrased it too, whether or not he's Igbo.

I think more "serious" cinema watchers would probably say that Yoruba videos are better than English ones, but that does not necessarily have to do with the ethnic qualities of Yoruba people. It has to do with the fact that for the most part, Yoruba actors are acting in their first language, and that many Yoruba movies are made by people with theatrical training--sometimes decades of stage acting experience, like Lere Paimo, Ogogo, and even Baba Suwe. The combination of a professional acting background and greater fluency in your mother tongue makes for a higher-quality production. That's why, IMO, Tunde Kelani's Mainframe videos are the best-known Nigerian productions around the world in film festivals etc. like the African Film Festival in New York, the Toronto Film Festival (where they showed his newest video, Abeni) etc. That doesn't take away from the incredible popularity of English-language videos, but I don't think they would win high marks anywhere for their quality. English-language Nigerian videos are being watched all over the world and has created a new industry for the country, and that's a great thing. The Yoruba video industry is the largest first-language cinema industry in Africa and is recognized for its high quality in film festivals, and that's a great thing. Both are great achievements for Nigeria.

Also, not all actors in Yoruba movies are Yoruba. Rachael Oniga is a huge star in the industry who is Igbo; Fathia Balogun is from Delta State, I believe; and several non-Yoruba "Nollywood" (I don't like the term) actors like Clem Ohameze and Tony Umez appear in Yoruba movies.

ThiefofHearts--great points about the quality of a Portuguese-language film like City of God or the culture of the Indian film industry versus the worldwide popularity of Titanic or Mission Impossible 3 etc. That's what we're talking about, in my opinion. I see you like Radiohead as well

One thing I don't understand is the whole thing about Ramsey Nouah--maybe someone should tell him he's not considered 'Yoruba' enough by some people. I think his middle name's Tokunbo and he's done a couple of Yoruba films but who knows Maybe he'll have to re-examine himself to make sure he fits into Internet categories of what a Yoruba person should be

Bankowner:
What exactly is your point, oga?
What has mentioning his middle name got to do with reporting along tribal lines? Tokunbo is his name, period. However way you choose to see that is your problem.

Read the article, this time, carefully. If you miss the point after doing this, I'm sorry, I am not responsible for your understanding of the matter. Thank you and have a nice day sir.

Bankowner:
His middle name is Tokunbo and he speaks fluent yoruba. You can check him out on Curiosity Made Me Ask with Isbae U.

I would wonder why a Tokunnbo would have anything to do with any other side of the country when the name tells itself. The way we report along tribe and mundane things worries me.

For years, some people believed the veteran actor was from the Eastern part of Nigeria. But Ramsey Nouah has now shared a different side of his heritage.

I wasn't aware of this. Or am I the only one? Who thought he was from the East in the first place? He already acted in a Tade Ogidan movie which I think was Dangerous Twins or so. I think he spoke some Yoruba in that movie. Maybe because he acted English movies a lot but I'm sincerely amused by this line in the story and wondering what was the motive behind that peice of information even though the lazy OP used AI to write their post. Noah gave a lot of interviews during that time so I really want to know if this is mischief in the making.

If you ever thought Noah was from the East in his hey days, press the share button please. If you never, press the like.

Psychological projection describes the act of taking your own internal experiences, like your feelings, insecurities, or biases and incorrectly placing them onto the people around you.


https://www.tiktok.com/video/7668312289308724494

You shift your own hidden feelings outward so they seem to belong to another person It shields your self-esteem and reduces anxiety by helping you avoid confronting personal flaws or guilt. The person projecting is entirely unaware they are doing it, viewing the other person as the true source of the problem.

Hiking is walking on marked paths, while climbing means using your hands and special gear to go up steep rock or ice.

That's women for u.
Spend over 10million naira on her, she will never remember. But the day u mistakenly go broke and she rescue you with 100k, anytime your relationship go South, she will start telling everyone how she helped your life because of the 100k

There's nothing more to add to this, though general statements aren't good, this rings true in a lot of cases.

Case in point.

Married women who win the lottery double their short-term divorce rate, acting as a financial catalyst to leave unhappy marriages.

Why was the President's Independence Day broadcast video AI generated?

Why don't they show us a video of the President delivering the speech himself?

With questions being raised about his health, people want to know what's going on. Can he can read and comprehend documents presented to him?

He is responsible for reviewing and signing important documents and making decisions for the country.

Take a look at this video. The average person blinks at least 30 times every 2 mins, but the President blinked only 4 times in the entire 2 mins+. Even the lip and tongue movements are noticeably unnatural.

Our objective is not to manage poverty more efficiently. We will defeat it. It will take time. It will require discipline. It will require sustained growth year after year and the creation of millions of productive opportunities across our country.

Please can you send the information on Nairaland, just tag me on one or two.

I will then find something from an Obidient that will easily top it.

Are we onto a competition now on who is worse in behaviour? The older ones (who we assume should know better) or those who looked up to them and copied them?

Check threads on the 2014/2015 PDP Presidential Campaign Documentaries that aired on NTA and AIT against Muhammadu Buhari, which were heavily debated on Nairaland at the time and read their aggressive personal attacks or is it the FeBuhari and 2015 APC campaigns where by certain accounts and influencers targeting the Goodluck Jonathan administration? Please don't get me started because even before APC took over, I know how many interventions there had to be on Nairaland during Yar'Adua to Jonathan to Buhari and Nairaland is just one side of it. There's a reason someone opened this kind of thread in 2015 👇

Did you listen to Lai Muhammed during his book tour recently? Watch his interviews on Edmund Obilo and NC, they asked him why they were so aggressive and harsh and the answer is in watching it yourself. Let's not pretend that these guys are this and that. As far as I'm concerned, they are learners compared to those who preceded them. I prefer principled politics but I will also not pretend where I see hypocrisy. I follow politics actively online and offline, so let's not even start this false narrative.
I'm not going to deviate from the topic of this thread but if you want to give it a try, open a separate thread for it

aswani:
Same here baba, over time, they have gone from barely tolerable nuisances to totally detestable.

Sir, per the admittedly unprofessional use of the state government twitter handle to respond to Peter Obí, I will urge that you be mindful of the fact that Obidients would have responsed to that handle in the way they know best aforehand, needlessly abusing, insult and cursing.

One can only take so much provocation before needing to lash out. Me personally sha, I don't blame the individual that runs the handle.

Whenever I read such comments, I'm tempted to call you out. Please stop with the hypocrisy. I can give you handouts of how these Obidients are still learning work from their elders. I don't care who you hate or love, and you are absolutely free in your choices to hate or love people but it pisses me off when I see particularly older people pretend like they didn't know what the political atmosphere was before the emergence of these Obidients. Again, I put it to you that these young people are still learning because before 2015 - 23, we know what were the words that were exchanged on traditional media, in print, on here on Nairaland (we still have some of the threads here) among others. So sometimes I'm tempted to ask, perhaps did the apple fall far from the tree?

Meanwhile, Canada people are telling us life is the sweetest over there. Omo Cana was on internet telling us there's no bill they pay in Canada that Nigerians don't pay double. And they even get a lot of freebies 🙄. Me self don they think relocating from US to Canada because of those sweet words 🤫

I think I saw one of the mods writing on the Canada topic this morning about how a Nigerian can afford to pay 2 year rent👇

dominique:
You see that 2 years rent part, that's just one of the many lies he told in his sob story. Rent is paid monthly in Canada and average rent for a very modest apartment in Canada is $1000cad. The way their rent structure is, you can pay your rent for a few months upfront but a whole 2 years? I don't think any agency will accept that from anybody.

If he can be lying about 2 years rent, I wonder what else hesying about

Nigerians can already afford POF that many Canadians cannot afford without saving for years or borrowing money from the bank. If many of us from the so-called poor countries can afford their thousands of dollars, 2 years rent based on your calculations, about 12 million per year would not be an over exaggeration.


Those countries have a way of making us poorer through bills. Nigerians will go cash down and do things, they think we are fraudsters and can't earn legitimate money that well. Despite doubling the amount of money to come into their country, Nigerians are still going there. Whoever is writing the story is the director my broda. The Nigerians paying expensive school fees abroad, the local people sef fit no afford am. Money de where money de. Legitimate money.

When Paul-Henri Damiba overthrew Burkina Faso's elected government earlier in 2022, neighboring states like Côte d'Ivoire welcomed him warmly because he protected legacy foreign interests. The moment Traoré took power and openly promoted and prioritized a Burkina Faso firstagenda, the West instantly branded him a pariah and a dictator
