Politics › Re: Remi Tinubu’s Akara & Kulikuli Advice Not For Yahoo Boys, Obidients – Ayekoto by SixSeven: 1:57pm On Jun 27
I am surprised people are overlooking something she said in that interview.

"So we've encouraged Nigerians as best as we could. What is within our hands, I have given, and I keep giving.

"I remember giving for TB. When I heard there were so many TB cases, I gave N2 billion. To breast cancer, I gave a billion. For food malnutrition, I gave half a billion."

I, we. They want to turn us to a charity case. What a shame. Before her husband's inauguration in May 2023, Remi Tinubu stated that her family did not require Nigeria's wealth to survive, emphasizing that they are already blessed. She pledged to use her position to guide the nation onto the correct path and promised that they would do the right thing with the country's resources.

For a former Senator not to know that there are specific institutions to do what she is talking about, I now forgive Aisha Buhari who channeled her frustration to the right quarters. Madam, there are budget allocations for these things. It means you are not on top of your game if you have to fund the country with your charity when there is a government. Shame again.

Some of you making comments didn't even read the whole story l narrated. Read my post carefully to the last sentence to fully understand my point of view.

I am not supporting what the first lady said. I am only exposing how difficult it is to make profit from this busines considering the operational cost plus logistics.

I could only do the Akara business back then because my sweet mum supported me. Also because l had a large market in a private university with rich students.

How much is Akara in your area now. It is N50 and N100 near my office in lagos depending on size.

One mumu Tinubu loyalist said it can be repackaged and sold for N1000. Very weird set of people

Note that this same akara was N10 and N20 when tinubu became president in May 2023. Beans of N900 is now over 5k. Oil of N300 is now over N1500. Cooking gas of N400 per kg is now over N1700. All within the space of three years.
Your last line is what Mr Buhari said in West Germany and got flak for it. Be careful grin

LOL...The Lawyer illustration you made is quite funny...

It goes to show the whole of what we call relationship is rooted in a psychological foundation. A man won't go out walking proudly and telling people with great excitement how his wife has been the one taking care of him and the children financially...Even though, that happening to a man is physically relieving but it is mentally excruciating......Hahahaha

Basically, relationship between a man and a woman is transactional. It is all about the exchange of Mental joy with a physical joy...... I give you physical pleasure in exchange for a mental pleasure.
You are right. Men want that woman who is loyal to him and he doesn't mind killing himself for that which ironically means another man will eat the fruits of his labor but it's better that happens over his dead body.

Buhari allowed INEC to carry out off-cycle elections without interference. Several State gubernatorial elections and Parliamentary elections were carried out under him with opposition parties winning significant numbers. Infact under him, his party lost an entire state to the opposition. That my dear, is how a democratic space thrives. It keeps everyone on their feet to do normal. But what we have now is a group of persons deciding for the entire country their own way. That, history taught us, never ends well.
Let me help you out.

Following his re-election in September 2020 under the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Governor Obaseki paid a thank-you visit to President Buhari (who belonged to the opposing APC party). He explicitly thanked the President for keeping his promise not to interfere with the electoral process, allowing the will of the people to prevail.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9dslxXW88Y

Other Governors Who Made Similar Commendations:
1. Governor Charles Soludo (Anambra State): After winning his election in November 2021 under the APGA banner, Soludo similarly praised Buhari for his neutrality and ensuring a transparent voting process.

2. Governor Aminu Bello Masari (Katsina State):
Following his 2019 re-election victory, he visited the State House to thank the President, who in turn reiterated his desire to leave a legacy of free and fair elections.

3. The Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, famously visited President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House in Abuja specifically to thank him for ensuring a free and fair election.

4. Willie Obiano (Anambra State): Ahead of and following his 2017 re-election victory under the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Obiano praised Buhari's democratic integrity. He consistently thanked the President for keeping his word to guarantee a level playing field rather than deploying "federal might" to rig the state for the ruling party.

The nonsense happening in the country currently is deeply disturbing..

Looking for every suppressive opportunity to decimate the opposition is absurd.

Here individuals are stronger than the weak institutions here some hungry folks can be used to destabilize the system. In climes where institutions are strong, we won't even find ourselves in such situation in the first place.[left][/left]

They have been doing this from day 1 since they came in 2023. First, they ensured no other party won any off-cycle elections across the country.

This, to me is desperation and lack of patriotism at it its peak. You don't treat a country you claim to love this way in a desperate search for power retention. You can't claim to be demcrat who fought for democracy and still r*pe the same demoracy this way when given..

Nobody stays in power forever, so I want those currently in power to take a little pause and think about what life would be like when they are no more. Having subjected State Institutions to so much abuse.

I can't believe one day I would look back and think about what a 'democratic' person Buhari was. That was someone we all thought would be a hardliner but he never imposed his selfish wills on anyone by hook or by crook. Infact if he had done that, the current administration won't be in power.

As you are carried away by the allure of power, always think about what posterity would remember you for.

Indeed those who said Nigeria would get their second Independence when they defeat the APC and emilokan were very correct.🤔🤔
Speaking about Buhari's time, I share the same view. Do you remember when he received both factions of the Ogun APC in Aso Rock? The man said go and fight for yourself instead of looking for endorsement

Health › Re: "If You Just Chook The Needle Anywhere Blood Will Come Out" by SixSeven: 12:48pm On Jun 27
By Jahidah La Roche

Dec. 2, 2025

La Roche is a physician assistant and public health professional.

I was moments away from a routine screening colonoscopy when it happened again. The warm and professional pre-procedure nurse began preparing for intravenous insertion. She tied the tourniquet loosely around my arm, took a quick glance, and untied it within seconds. “I can’t find a vein. You must be dehydrated,” she said, moving immediately to the back of my hand.

I asked her to try my other arm instead, explaining that IVs in the back of the hand are unnecessarily painful. She obliged, and the moment she placed the tourniquet, a vein became clearly visible. I could tell she was hesitant. But she inserted the IV successfully, and my procedure went on as planned

That moment stayed with me not because of the IV itself, but because of the familiarity of that exchange. The quick assumption that my body — not her technique — was the problem. The way the explanation came instinctively, as though it were an unavoidable fact. It was an example of quiet, unspoken bias in patient care — one that too many Black patients know all too well.

Racial bias in health care isn’t always blatant. It doesn’t always look like a refusal to treat or a catastrophic mistake. Sometimes, it’s a sigh. A glance. A provider who stops trying just a little too soon. These interactions seem small, but they aren’t. They shape how Black patients experience medicine — from minor procedures to life-or-death situations. And they contribute to the very health disparities the medical profession claims to be working to eliminate.

Black patients, these experiences can become moments of medical mistrust. Difficult venous access — the medical term for “hard sticks” — is a real clinical challenge. But I didn’t meet the criteria for it. So why was the first explanation that my veins weren’t cooperating rather than her approach needing adjustment?

In the limited literature available, nurses have cited “dark skin” more often as the rationale for an IV attempt failing than for one succeeding. Darker skin does not inherently make venous access harder; it becomes a convenient explanation when things do not go as planned.

I’ve heard countless stories from Black patients describing blood draw horrors — being poked multiple times, told their veins are “rolling,” or that they are “difficult sticks.” I’ve seen patients start avoiding care altogether because of these repeated experiences.

I know, because I’ve spent years on both sides of the chair. As a physician assistant and public health professional, I’ve placed thousands of IVs. I’ve also been the patient watching a provider struggle, hesitate, and ultimately stop trying.

These bias-driven assumptions don’t just happen with IV placement. They happen everywhere in medicine. In a 2023 survey, 35% of Black adults said they have been treated unfairly or judged by a health care provider because of their race. These numbers aren’t abstract. They show up in who gets adequate pain management, who gets diagnosed correctly, who gets their symptoms taken seriously. They show up when a Black woman’s pain is minimized even during childbirth. They show up when a provider assumes a Black patient isn’t following instructions. And they show up when a routine IV placement is fumbled and explained away rather than corrected.

The result? Eroded patient trust. Delays in care. Worsening health outcomes.

Whenever racial bias in health care is called out, the response is predictable: more implicit bias training. But training alone won’t fix this. Awareness without action changes nothing. Medical and nursing educational institutions need to go beyond “cultural competence” and require practical, reinforced bedside training that accounts for racial differences in patient care. This includes proper venipuncture techniques for all skin tones — not as an afterthought, but as a core clinical skill. Hospitals and health systems must go beyond training sessions and create accountability structures that ensure providers are not rushing through care, making assumptions, or cutting corners. There should be real-time feedback loops where bias-related complaints are taken seriously, reviewed at the leadership level, and result in meaningful policy changes.

Health care providers — nurses, physicians, and allied health professionals — must actively interrogate their own biases in real-time and ask: Am I giving this patient the same effort I would for someone else? Have I adjusted my technique before blaming the patient’s hydration status? Am I really looking?

These moments add up. They have consequences — life-changing ones.

Jahidah La Roche, M.P.H., P.A., is a physician assistant and public health professional with two decades of clinical experience, focusing on bias, health equity, and culturally responsive care for Black women.

Yinbridge:
BS......... Na long story. I find time to come bk and write cos I have been stressed is an understatement.
Let's get right into it.

Remember I said relocation plus baby.

So before baby I had my Canadian permanent residence application going. So I was 30weeks when the approval came. Bak and forth trying to move and get passport stamped I entered 38weeks o my people. Got my Passport bk and moved immediately collected fake doctors report to give the airline that m 32weeks. Flew in on Thursday. Did all my registrations next day and was so stressed but it's all worth it o.
Early Monday morning 23rd, 3am, my water broke. I went to pee, the pee dinnor stop o that's how I knew the water broke o. I put pad and woke my husband up to tell him. He said let's sleep bk and by morning we will know what to do since I have no contractions. Before I slept off I msgd a lady who just gave birth in canada like me and told her my situation. She woke me with call by 7am to move straight to the hospital. Where she also delivered.

By 9am we got to the hospital, we got registered and put in d exam room. They tagged me, they examined my water that broke to know if I was really in labour. They took plenty blood o like becos I didn't have any record. After they took blood and check baby they admitted me. They put me in the labour room l was just not really contracting so they decided to induce me to make contract faster. They first gave me toast bread and juice to eat cos I can't eat again just water.
They asked if I wanted anything for pain. Gave me three options, oral drugs, laughing gas, and epidural. My sisters I was forming strong girl o. I said nothing o that I was fine.
I was assigned a nurse, a doctor and an assistant nurse to ring Bell anytime I need anything. They put a rope abi wire ni to monitor my heartbeat, baby's heartbeat and my contractions.
Then the whole thing started from past 10am. My husband and I started. For over 3hrs, it was 1cm. After 2 hours they came bk to check, it was 3cm. At this point I was hungry, tired and dey just kept saying you r doing great. You are doing well mama.
Omo I wan die 3cm and we still have 7cm to go. I begged pls gimme epidural. They said anesthesiologist is in d theatre. I cried ehn my husband was just begging me.

My parents in Nigeria were calling, his parents and our timr difference is 7hrs. Everybody stayed awake. He was being fired on the fone to know what was happening. My mum was crying pe lataro. We thought it will be fast. As we were admitted we called the parents and siblings to expect their baby. Had we known we could have calm down. My baby was really not ready. Actually my Edd was May 31st. But I guess the travelling stress induced the baby. At this point my husband and I prayed God help us.


Back to me crying. I was tired. Begging the nurse pls bring me the epidural. She said few hrs the anesthesiologist will soon be here. Few hrs keh. I cannot cope. Nurse was begging me o, telling me to walk around the room, it's a private room just be free. Inside the room I had my toilet, my baby's new machine to use for him, long chair to sleep for my husband and blanket
Then for a while i tried to sleep. I slept for like 1hr and they came to wake me the anesthesiologist was here. Omo I was in pain but walked me thru d process and said set your back. They started poking me. They poke and poke for 10mins. D anesthesiologist said I can't find your vein. I cried and cried. The nurse was holding me. My husband was also sad looking. The anesthesiologist said she will get an ultrasound to look for my veins, then she marked it. They started the poking again. After 5mins or so they were done. O mo after 30mins I was numb. I was feeling so good. I was contracting yet no s much in pain. From 10am nothing till next day. Omo by 6am d next day, I was 6cm. I was just there. Lifeless, my Husband didn't know what to do. He slept at some point omo I pity d man. Doctor came they continue to encourage me tht d baby is fine if they need comes they will do cs but for now I am doing okay.
I called my husband again let's pray. He said nooo he has prayed all he wants to do is give thanks. He started playing Christian music

By 9am cos the clock dey infont of Me like this, the doctor came again and said now we r 8cm. I was happy that finally we r almost there. I dinnor know that it was still a long. Omo it took more hours. The doctor said she will come finally by 11 and if no show, we move to CS. By past 11 my husband went to look for nurse. The doctor came and said finally we can start pushing.
Omo I started pushing o pushing and by 1 is only d head rhey were seeing.

The doctor even went to do operation but said she will be bk for me the nurse shud continue. By the time the doctor came. She said weldone your baby is coming. My husband said later I kept on pooing as I was pushing(smile) but nurse just packed it and not complain.

Sha the doctor came and said you r exhausted, shud I help u with 2 to 4 more pushes or u continue for 45mins. I said hen. How will u help she said vacuum Extractor delivery. I said yes pls she was just like your baby will have sore on his head. I said we wil take d pain together omo, I agreed o. She said push and d vacuum Extractor was inserted. I didn't feel too much pain o. Cos of the epidural. Dey removed my baby is 5mins. They kept him on my chest I just kept crying that finally. My husband was just there playing Christian songs and trying to trust God. Baby came he was just petting me and snapping baby. He immediately forwarded it to our family that hasn't slept for 2 days. I had tears, they sew me bk up

I was cleaned up. The nurse said we will move to postpartum after they checked my baby's weigh 3.2kg. They cleaned us all and moved me in wheel chair to the new room. They tested me and baby again and we were good. They immediately gave me and my husband food and drinks for a job well done. My family stayed awake and we called them. My husband just kept praying over his son while me I slept off.
We were in thr hospital for 2days. We got discharged on Thursday and my husband went to look for car seat for our baby. Then the nurses anf doctors came with plenty paper work, told us plenty things then wheeled me downstairs and my baby and they said byee. Gave me a lot for my baby and I and bade us bye.

Omo it was indeed a journey o. I thank God say this baby wait for me to become a Canadian o. In as much as the birth/delivery was a lot. The joy is that my baby is a Canadian. Thank you all for your love on this group o. I learnt a lot. My baby is gum body o. I can hardly get up and do anything he just cries. No help just me and my husband. But we thank God we r doing fine as a first time parent.

Unfortunately, the olodo generation were not brought up with debating culture so they don't understand that attacking the person instead of the issue does not solve the problem. However I must commend her, she said something that's obvious. The unemployment rate left these kids without a choice and if she says it, the adults in the room will gaslight her that the government said unemployment rate is not high so you adults in the room, before you insult Gen Z, look what examples you've given them first.

Faith On The World Stage: World Cup Players Are Boldly Proclaiming Christ
https://www.nairaland.com/8695213/faith-world-stage-world-cup#139786264

A. How did you feel when the players were celebrating Christ at the exact same tournament? Do you think any public display of faith ruins a team, or is it specifically Islamic expressions that bother you?

B. Ghana just held England to a 0-0 draw using a highly disciplined, tactical defensive setup. Yet, because a fan blew white powder in the stands and a local spiritualist joked about hexing Harry Kane, critics dismissed it as 'juju' and they even left the hardwork of the Ghanaian team that was robbed a clear penalty that could have won them the game for juju that gave them a draw. Would your reaction be different if the Senegalese coach was praising his marabout before this game instead of Islam/Christianity?

PS: Senegal has a 90% Muslim population

From those who traveled in the 70s to date, instead of the abroad money being able to be their second option, they find out that everyone is dependending on them as things are bad at home.

anonimi:
Are you talking about this Obi, or there is another one huh
Good call but when news broke that the National Assembly leadership spent that money to purchase foreign luxury SUVs for all legislators, the Labour Party leadership took a strict, highly critical stance. The LP national leadership explicitly directed all elected Labour Party lawmakers in the Senate and House of Representatives to vehemently oppose and reject the vehicles.

The party leadership labeled the luxury purchase as an unacceptable "wastage" of public funds and a slap in the face to millions of Nigerians enduring severe economic hardship. Labour Party lawmakers, such as Senator Neda Imasuen (Edo South), publicly argued that it was unrealistic to completely block or reject the allocation. They pointed out that as a small minority in the parliament (e.g., only 8 LP senators out of 109 total), they would easily be outvoted. They claimed that even if they rejected the cars individually, the vehicles would not be returned to the manufacturers or save the government money. The debate was put to rest when Peter Obi himself held a press conference in Abuja, softening the party's initial stance. After discussing the matter with the lawmakers, Obi defended their acceptance of the vehicles by clarifying the following points:

Official Use Only: The vehicles were not personal gifts but institutional assets meant exclusively for official legislative duties.

Not Personal Property: Lawmakers are legally required to return the vehicles to the National Assembly fleet at the end of their four-year tenure.

I am showing you the video where he held the press conference on it and had to yield but did say if they were in office, they would not have allowed such

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvNKUyf3G88?t=250&si=sgUrNsVDwJE-pMch

Watching the video and seeing his vice presidential candidate who now runs his own show in PRP is another example of the party discipline we talked about. But we have to be realistic about Nigerian Politics today. APC has not hidden it at all, including the President, Akpabio the Senate President and the SGF, Gbaja that they are interested in seeing that opposition parties weak. I can be hypothetical but need to be realistic. The times we live in is a time where you need people of good conscience that cannot be bought so easily like before and this too is a test. That's why organized labour and many activists are dead today. They've been cashed out...


Edit: even if Obi won and they did not have majority, there's nothing he could have done wink He would only make a moral argument because it was a NASS spending, a budget they could not have controlled

They were afraid to lose power, that's the problem but they are now the big loser. Imagine if PDP expelled the Governors that betrayed them and never let them back into their party? Wike would have been a hero today because time has shown that all of them left for selfish interest. PDP would have gotten back to power max in 2023 because what is the difference now that they lost Senate, they lost house of reps and states all for what? The way the party disorganized itself and allowed Wike free reign gave its remaining governors no choice but to decamp. Most of the parties are not interested in building, the same fate that befell Labour Party after 2023. They didn't even listen to Obi when there was suggestions they don't take the national assembly cars. Everyone is just waiting for their turn to take out of the pie.

I understand you clearly but I still want you to consider my points.
This scenario is such that most of the people in APC today were formally of the PDP, so if there was some form of ideological delineation, it wouldn't have been possible.
Apart from the President, former President Goodluck Jonathan and a few others that have stayed true to their backgrounds, all others have no shame and you can't vouch for where they will be in a few hours.
I understand you but don't forget that because of the style of APC politics, the PDP for instance cannot survive properly. Akpabio still has videos where he swore that PDP will never lose but today he is speaking for APC. I must not forget that PDP brought the destruction upon itself with nPDP and the likes of Obasanjo tearing their party cards in public. They also allowed the Governors grow too big that the monster they created can no longer be conttolled. A disciplined party would have expelled Makinde, Wike and their group in 2022 but why did they go what they did? The party does not follow its own guidelines. Those who were not patient with the destruction of their party had to leave to APC to achieve their ambition. The first thing we need is a party that must not be weaker than those it gives its platform. ANC in South Africa brought Zuma back to ground when he was becoming uncontrollable. Party supremacy must return first.

No, we can't say that. PDP messed up but one thing we can give to them was that they managed the economy much better than APC. Let's not even go there. From Buhari to Tinubu, it's been disastrous. Tinubu set himself up by announcing the end of subsidy from day one, despite advice from his own inner circle. You see how he was proud to even say it that he was bold. Okay, you are bold, what buffer did you plan for your people? I agree most parties lack ideology but the way PDP managed the unity of Nigeria was far far better than the divisiveness of APC. If Buhari's own was to his people and Tinubu's own is to his, what do you expect from their next candidate? They will continue what they think is normal to them. APC ideology currently is dangerous for this country. At least PDP had disagreement which made it better for not only our democracy but the country. This one where they want the party to be like 1984, the tyrant is just about to be unveiled. If PDP did not admit they were wrong in 2007, APC would not even have had any chance to smell any seat. APC grew too fast and were not ready for what they asked for but today, it's so convoluted that you can be APC in the morning and PDP in the night but vote for SDP on election day. It's politics of poverty worsened by corruption, lack of principles and ideology. Anywhere belle face

I want to know oo. Abi you have the answer.
The party came in through arrogance, pride and propaganda but time is a beautiful gentleman, the embarrassment cannot humble them at all. They would rather die than admit the shame that they were deceivers and pretending to have the solutions to problems they could not solve. They won't return anything to where they met it because they never had it in them from the get go. They were only interested in grabbing power. If we thought Tinubu's voicing of grab it and snatch it was rugged, he was only voicing what the coalition came to do, to grab power but forget how to use power properly.
In hindsight, we can now tell that a bad PDP was still better than the good APC.

Lack of communication kills love and feelings. Yes there was a time I was crazy about her, but like I said in my first post, she wasn't into me. I was making all the effort and she was barely reciprocating. Even when I stopped reaching out to her, her didn't care because I was the one doing the calling and texting. So she barely even noticed it. She probably had other guys fighting for her attention.

Then out of the blue after 5, years she suddenly reaches out to request for money. Those 5 years gap has killed every feeling I have for her that's why it was so easy for me to block her.
💯
Protect your boundaries. You are doing well, for YOURSELF.

Emilokan government will soon come up with one technical jargon to justify the refusal to review the price downward.
They always turn to the international community for hardship and they always have one fake intellectual who loves to drink from the sour water of bad events around the world for comradery on why you need to be patient in suffering but when it has to do with enjoyment, taaaaaa!!!! We shall stand on the mandate and they will give us what they feel like when ebinpawa is at maximum. Propaganda government is good at hopemaxxing

Na so I see am for Truecaller.
If I didn't want to believe your story, that part caught me off guard. The real question now is, do you still like her despite this bad behavior? This was someone you wanted to chase once upon a time? Because the way you blocked her is not ordinary. There is something deeper. You can choose to ignore her but it seems to me e pass her bad behavior

Thank God even for little things.

The stadium built by your former Governor that you do not appreciate is why is presently saving Nigeria from disgrace among the comity of Nations.
If not for Goodwill Akpabio stadium, Super Eagles would have been playing their international matched in Benin Republic abi Cape Verde by now.

If you don't appreciate it, other Nigerians do.
Nobody is saying the stadium has no value. In fact, it's an important national asset, and it's good that Nigeria can host international matches there.

The point, however, is about priorities and overall development. A state should not be judged by one landmark project alone. Citizens also expect quality roads, healthcare, education, industrial development, job creation, reliable infrastructure, and policies that improve everyday life.

A government can build a world-class stadium and still be criticized if other critical sectors are neglected. Likewise, appreciating the stadium doesn't mean people should stop demanding broader development. Both can be true at the same time. Your comment even opens a wider net, the own goal of why we have moved from Lagos to Abuja and now to Akwa Ibom. The Godswill Akpabio Stadium is undoubtedly one of Nigeria's best stadiums, but let's not pretend it has been without issues. Super Eagles players have complained about the pitch on more than one occasion, leading to renovations and improvements.
Politics › Re: Outlaw Almajiri System To Stop Insecurity, Gov. Abdullahi Sule Tells NASS by SixSeven: 6:11am On Jun 26
A child whose parents are not interested in their responsibility will become a menace to society.

The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth

Islamic text heavily emphasizes parental responsibility. The Prophet Muhammad stated, "Each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for his flock" (Sahih al- Bukhari 7138). Critics argue that parents use the "religious education" label as a deceptive excuse to outsource the economic burden of raising their children.

Because hundreds of thousands of Almajiri children roam the streets unprotected, they are highly vulnerable to manipulation. Scholars and security analysts note that extremist groups (like Boko Haram, founded by an Almajiri graduate) have historically used ideological distortion to recruit these marginalized youth, using religious rhetoric to exploit their lack of formal or critical education.
Sardauna's words 👇

There will be no room for idlers and carefree passengers in our schools, who have no ambition and no intention to be ambitious... If you fail to take full advantage of your education now, you may live to regret it for the rest of your lives... As regards the lazy and indolent ones, I see little point in government giving further financial assistance to their education.


Shame on you all. Spits
