I always tuned in to Cruise Control when Frank Edoho ran the program. By the time Kamal took over I'd gotten busy and lost interest in Radio programmes. Say, does anyone know the title of Cruise Control theme song?

Family › Re: If You Were The Father Of This girl, What Will Be Your Reaction? by SixSeven: 2:38am On Jul 14
Over my her dead body
If I'm the father it means I failed to raise her properly as a father because my primary duty as her papa is to feed, clothe and provide for her until she is ready to take care of herself or meet a responsible man who's ready to come to my house to seek her hand in marriage and I'll hand her over to him based on marriage rites.

“I am thankful you are alive. But what you did was wrong and it has damaged my trust in you. You must face the consequences and understand the values I raised you with. I will correct you because I love you.”
If you're a father, share this comment if a father will do that to his daughter. Sorry, responsible father.

"Oh Father! Oh Daughter!"

givedemwotowoto:
State police is useless if the constitution establishing it doesn't clearly separate state and federal powers.

Federal police should never have any jurisdiction over state police unless a federal crime is involved.
The president nor the state governors shouldn't have control over the Police because they too can be investigated by the Police. Putting them as supervision makes the Police under them. Do you want to investigate your boss? No one should be above the law which is what the police is to uphold, not the person occupying the seat.

It's been suspended, note, SUSPENDED. It could come back after elections if they win. There doesn't appear to be coordination within this government and they have to be careful with making too many changes at the same time, it can cause a disaster.

You have made changes to the 6-3-3-4

You have made changes to SS3 transfers (punishes families who must relocate due to jobs or security crises, as their children are barred from changing schools during their final certificate examination year)

You have made changes to WAEC

You have made changes to the 16-year tertiary entry age

You have made changes to Learner Identification Number (LIN) (I just read this morning where there is a December deadline for NIMC)

You have made changes to NYSC

You are not thinking of the chain reaction

Some of the changes by the Minister are good but we need to be careful with making too many rushed decisions that can affect us negatively. I am waiting for what the new JAMB registrar will do because he too may want to make his mark known undecided
Career › Re: Why Does Life Suddenly Becomes Hard After NYSC? by SixSeven: 6:02pm On Jul 13
It's funny people say it is
Now
Your
Suffering
Continues/Commences

I was writing on the thread of ghost corpers why NYSC is necessary and I even compared it to the gap year oyinbo people do to know themselves. If we really want to do it well, we can actually make NYSC something you do before your final year in the university.

Most people who want to rush through life lack awareness. They think everything is about money, business and comfort life. Don't get me wrong, I do not believe in suffering but people should get out of their familiar environment and experience life somewhere else. It's one of the best ways to know yourself. Read my comment on that thread 👇

SixSeven:
Things could have changed in recent times but these are live experiences. Is it not Nigerian civil service? Forget it. I can tell my NYSC experience because I wanted to experience it myself by myself. Some people were too much in a hurry and thought it was a waste of their lives. Is it not funny that the abroad people we like to copy also have a gap year where they want you to take a break and see life for yourself and find out if there is something that interests you. Of course, NYSC is not the same but looking back, I am happy I did it. I can look back now and tell my story. I got to know about those people who serve every year through life experience, this one is not someone telling me. You will see it in their faces sef when someone is so old and you are wondering why he is still serving but they know the system. Doesn't FG have ghost workers? Corruption is a cancer to us.

E be like say you have forgotten what happened to Dimeji Bankole and the former Finance Minister, that lady that came from UK, I've forgotten her name. Kemi something



I posted a few weeks ago that the BTS band members went for service; the Tottenham player had to serve his country in the Olympics for exemption (remember Chioma Ajunwa our first gold medalist was a police officer). What NYSC needs is to address the PPA career mismatch, welfare and insecurity. NYSC is a life experience for you to learn something new and I appreciate the program, it's not everything in life that is corporate or within formal organized systems. Many ignorant comments you see online is because some people never left their comfort zone and only know Nigeria from south or north. By trying to manipulate the system in fixing things, we are only shortchanging ourselves. That program alone can revive national spirit if managed well. Kudos to the administrators for trying their best despite the loopholes and we need to stop these pests around the government who want to reform things for their selfish benefits in awarding contracts. angry

Beautifulday:
Tinubu and his wife doesn't even know what is governance. To them, governance is all about show off.
I beg your pardon shocked


President Bola Ahmed Tinubu
Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a seasoned accountant and political strategist who rose from the corporate world to the highest office in Nigeria. Born in 1952, he earned his accounting degree from Chicago State University and worked for major global firms like Deloitte before returning to Nigeria as the treasurer of Mobil Oil. His political career took off in the early 1990s when he was elected to the Nigerian Senate, though military rule soon forced him into exile as a pro-democracy activist. Upon his return, he served two influential terms as Governor of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007, a period during which he rebuilt the city's crumbling infrastructure and radically overhauled its tax system to generate independent revenue. Known as a master political kingmaker for building the coalition that formed the All Progressives Congress (APC), he capped his decades-long political journey by winning the election to become the 16th President of Nigeria in 2023.


First Lady Oluremi Tinubu
Oluremi Tinubu is an educator, ordained pastor, and highly accomplished politician who has carved out her own prominent legacy alongside her husband. Born in 1960 in Ogun State, she graduated with a degree in Education from the University of Ife and spent years working as a high school teacher before stepping into the public eye as the First Lady of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007. Rather than remaining in a purely ceremonial role, she built her own independent political career and was elected as a federal Senator representing Lagos Central in 2011. She went on to serve three consecutive terms in the Senate over twelve years, sponsoring numerous bills focused on social welfare, youth development, and gender equality. Returning to the presidency in 2023 as the First Lady of Nigeria, she continues to drive national social policy and grassroots financial support for women and small businesses through her Renewed Hope Initiative.


Bonnie and Clyde. Sorry, Bola and Remi have governance experience in Legislation and Executive governance. But my friend, you can't give what you don't have. Some people go to school but still don't go through school IYKYK wink

Why can't she change her name from Habibat?abi there's no better female Christian name again.
Most of these apostates always cling to their Muslim names,if they can dump Islam why can't they dump it completely by changing their names?
A name, as long as it is a good name, is a NAME that should be kept. I am not saying this just for Muslims and Christians but also to our indigenous people who also changed their native names because of association.

Atiku has gotten more than that in two of his outings but you don't see him behaving as if he is above every other person that criticizes him.
In the three times he appeared on the general ballot for the presidency, Atiku Abubakar received

- 2,637,848 votes (7.47%) in 2007 to finish third,

- 11,262,978 votes (41.22%) in 2019 to finish second, and

- 6,984,520 votes (29.07%) in 2023 to finish second once again.

Romance › Re: The Two Extremes Many Men Feel Trapped Between by SixSeven: 1:41pm On Jul 11
Have you heard about penis envyhuh

In psychoanalytic theory, "penis envy" is rarely interpreted literally by modern practitioners (and we know why). Instead, it serves as a potent metaphor for a woman’s subconscious recognition of patriarchal privilege. It represents a deep-seated craving for the power, autonomy, and social dominance traditionally granted to men. When a woman has been conditioned by society to be passive, agreeable, and rule-abiding, she may experience a profound, repressed envy of those who can move through the world with uninhibited freedom. This hidden desire for power often drives the intense attraction toward the stereotypical "bad boy." The bad boy represents raw, unchecked authority and a total rejection of societal constraints. Because the woman feels barred from executing this level of aggressive autonomy herself, she seeks to access it by proxy. Aligning with a rebellious partner allows her to vicariously experience the thrill of defiance and the intoxication of social power.

This dynamic creates a psychological trap centered on the illusion of control. A woman experiencing this subconscious power imbalance often develops a "fixer" or savior complex. She believes that her unique love and devotion can tame the wild, unpredictable man. In her mind, if she can successfully conquer and domesticate the most dominant, dangerous figure in her environment, she will effectively capture his power for herself.
Winning the exclusive loyalty of a bad boy provides the ultimate validation of her own worth and influence. It silences her inner feelings of inadequacy by proving she possesses a unique, intoxicating leverage over someone else's strength. However, because the bad boy's power is rooted in instability and emotional unavailability, the victory is always out of reach. The very traits she envied and sought to possess inevitably turn inward, transforming her quest for empowerment into a exhausting cycle of emotional manipulation.


Women who fall for "bad boys" in stories are caught in a classic psychological trap. It starts because the woman feels trapped by rules, expectations, or a boring life. She sees a rebellious, dangerous man and gets hooked. She doesn't just want him; she wants the absolute freedom and power he has. By being with him, she feels like she can break the rules without getting her hands dirty.

The trap locks when she decides she is the only one who can "change" or save him. She believes her love is special enough to cure his issues. This makes her feel important and needed. To keep trying to fix him, she ignores major warning signs, confuses drama with true love, and pushes away friends who try to help her.

In the end, she faces a brutal wake-up call. She realizes his chaos is not a romantic mystery-it is just destructive, and it is ruining her life. To escape the trap, she has to stop trying to fix him. She must realize that the wild, independent energy she liked in him is actually something she needs to build inside herself.
Bonnie and Clyde grin

The man is damaged, the woman is on a fairytale. Both of them get a rude awakening. She wakes up from her fantasy, he gets tired of being a bad boy or he dies from the excesses or if he has another chance, he repents and becomes a good man and the lady who liked him for his dangerous unpredictability behaviour starts to resent him. Men start to discover themselves later in life while girls mature faster than boys their age. Most of these things are corrected by the family that is why you need both mother and father in a family unit.

Now I know most people commenting on Topics knows nothing about it. If you know how strict NYSC data base is setup. And their patterns of operation, you’ll appreciate them and know there’s nothing like ghost Corper. I have been to many offices and I see how they can’t even make any decisions without a board meetings.

E be like say you have forgotten what happened to Dimeji Bankole and the former Finance Minister, that lady that came from UK, I've forgotten her name. Kemi something

On November 1, 2007, Dimeji Bankole made history as the youngest Speaker of the Nigerian House of Representatives, but his historic achievement was quickly challenged when serious allegations surfaced on November 7, 2007, claiming he had evaded the mandatory National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme. Political opponents sought to exploit the legislature's recent leadership transition by asserting that the 37-year-old graduate had completely bypassed the compulsory year of civic service required of all Nigerian university graduates. The sudden controversy threatened to derail his new administration before it could even begin, prompting intense public scrutiny over his credentials.

Bankole swiftly neutralized the political storm on November 9, 2007, by making his official discharge credentials public, as archived in his biography, and proving he had successfully completed his national service in December 1998. He detailed his service history, explaining that he concluded his primary assignment at West African Aluminium Products Limited after an initial deployment to the National Human Rights Commission. Supported by photographic evidence of himself in the uniform and corroborated by former campmates from the Abuja Kubwa orientation camp, Bankole completely vindicated his reputation, shutting down the rumors and solidifying his hold on the speakership.
