PoliticsRe: 2027: Igboho Dismisses Sowore’s Comment On ‘Transactional Politics’ by SixSeven: 8:57am On Mar 18
From ọmọ wa ni ẹ jẹ o ṣe to Wild Wild West politics of thuggery and threats. I thought they said they were popular. You can never equal Awolowo. In your wildest dreams. All of these behaviours are not omoluabi, they are just thug life. Do you all remember the first week the President came into office, Asari Dokubo visited Aso Rock and made threats? It's no surprise. Those who lived in Lagos in 1999-2007 knew how thugs were elevated to threat levels and why no Governor in Lagos, including the tax people can not take agberos out of the roads. By the way, Awo believed in educating the children of the poor, not empowering them with palliatives.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: U.S. Secret Service Opens Recruitment, Offers $75,000 Hiring Bonus by SixSeven: 9:37pm On Mar 17
Hausa:
Secret service don't go to war.
Quite correct but you should note that agents in the United States Secret Service can face very high levels of risk, especially in situations where national leaders are likely targets, such as during war, terrorism threats, or periods of instability. Their role is to remain physically close to the individuals most at risk, meaning they are often the first line of defense if an attack occurs. In those moments, they may have to react instantly and even put themselves directly in harm’s way to protect the person they are assigned to guard. Currently, I am sure you saw what happened to the US President himself who was not seen in public for some days.

This risk tends to increase during major crises, when the chances of assassination attempts or coordinated attacks are higher. Unlike soldiers who are deployed to specific battlefields, Secret Service agents operate in constantly changing environments, often in public or unpredictable settings, where threats can emerge suddenly.

They are extensively trained for worst-case scenarios, including rapid evacuation, counter-assault tactics, and using their own bodies as a last line of protection, which underscores how dangerous their role can be despite not being a military force. Nonetheless, good spot

His predecessor did not respect himself by staying in the UK beyond the time he should have. Tinubu will also not get respected in France. Don't overstay your visit.

Stare refineries don't work because the subsidy prevented them from making enough profit to function well.

Nigeria was warned of this in 1992. We no hear. By 1994 , they started missing TAM.

as for Dangote, as at 2012 there were at least 20 licences for refineries. None except four could do anything because no bank would lend to a refinery operator when there is subsidy in place. ( it means losses and no roi)

Dangote on the other hand could secure financing because if he was unable to pay back his loans, AMCON would just tak over his other businesses and sell them off to.cover the debt.
State refineries don't work simply because we don't want it to. It has been an agenda for years.

Jonathan attempted a full "Turn Around Maintenance" in 2012, meeting with technical managers to address systemic failures, but these efforts largely failed to yield sustainable production. Before then, his boss Yar Adua had also tried his before death took him away. I recall he reversed the sale of the refineries to Otedola and Dangote which his own predecessor, Obasanjo did when he was leaving.

Jonathan famously removed the fuel subsidy in 2012, leading to the "Occupy Nigeria" protests, he later partially reversed the price hike due to public pressure but you and I know Fayemi had come out to admit that it was all politics.

While in opposition during the Goodluck Jonathan presidency (2010–2015), Tinubu was a fierce critic of the government’s handling of the oil sector, particularly its failure to fix local refineries while attempting to remove fuel subsidies.
So what is happening to the Port Harcourt refineries they promised us in December?

See, I don't care about any of these guys. I care more about my country. The refineries are not working and everyone is becoming a technical analyst because those who lead us don't care about us.

Edit +: before I forget, Buhari wasted our money looking for money in the North and wasting our time and money in the process.

CrimeRe: Missing Nigerian And Kenyan Women Found Dead In UK By The Water by SixSeven: 4:47pm On Mar 17
The organisation said the cases showed that missing Black women often receive less media attention, public awareness and support.
This is one of the hypocrisy of the west and this is why I wonder why Nigerians worry about others more than themselves. When they want to show crime, they show you pictures of black people looking mean but if it was a white person, they will look for a professional shoot so that you won't believe that they could do such a crime. I don't blame them, they are protecting their own. How are you protecting yours.

It's because we have to sell crude at OPEC prices...as part of being an OPEC member

Also, we rely on crude for most of our government income...yes, including the crude that Dangote sells. If government reduced crude prices of crude sold to Dangote...to say 40 dollars per barrel..it would amount to government taking away money from the budget funding...which means that they would have to borrow to deal with the resulting deficit...more debt on our head.

Plus Dangote still buys a lot of crude from abroad...and the price increases are affecting them too

Finally, since big nations like Saudi are not exporting crude...there is a relative scarcity of crude. That pushes up oil prices.

(Note that I am not excusing government, just showing why crude prices are high. Why govt should or should not pay subsidy is a whole nother argument).
I hear you. See, it's a windfall. EU countries are already looking towards an alternative. Nigeria should be an alternative if and only if our governments were wise enough to make the state refineries work. The failure to let our state control its oil and depend on Dangote will never work. He is a private owner. I can never hold him responsible but for government, if they are wise, they will protect what they have.

Someone here was trying to justify the war as a reason for increase in fuel price until I brought receipts. If slavery was on today, the current crop of leaders and supporters will sell us for less than a mirror's worth. They don't care if we suffer. They will tell us to look at others. When it comes to enjoying, they never tell us to look there.

Manculated:
Personally, i rarely render help to humans nowadays wether man or woman, but i'm more hostile towards women because i have learnt my lesson in the past as well😂
I forgot to respond to this part. So I help fellow men especially if he is a very responsible person. See Nigeria na, if guests give money to the family, who does it go to? Give children money, who takes it? Men have pride and they won't ask for help so if the woman comes to complain about her family, I will give her 0.2 and give the man 1.8 without letting her know because a man's downfall begins when he cannot provide and the same women would have forgotten when he was keeping the house running. This is why a man who finds a good wife has found treasure. He has no idea what that means for a well disciplined woman to be his wife. Give women a trial and the test will show how temporary their condition is and how permanent a man's own can quickly become if he's not careful.

Exactly but irl, don't give anyone more power than they deserve. You can control yourself but you cannot control the action of others. Therefore, men and women should not be so crazy about other people they met here on earth and they will leave eventually one day. When people go crazy over a breakup and want to kill themselves. For what na?

Keep stealing while trying to justify why you're doing it. Your cup is almost full and you'd be caught.
Thank you for helping me say my mind. The bot banned me for my earlier comment. If they are theives in their own family, we are not thieves in mine. “Wrong is wrong, even if everyone is doing it.”

We work, we earn, and we keep our integrity intact no matter how corrupt things around us get. Just because he has seen people cut corners doesn’t mean everyone is doing it. That mindset is exactly what keeps corruption alive, excusing it as “normal.” It’s not normal for us, and it never will be.
We’re not surviving by taking from others. We’re living by standing on our principles.

“Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching.”

I assure you they won't believe all these because in the eyes of the thief, everyone is a thief like them.

RomanceRe: Why I Don't Help Women Anymore by SixSeven:
Olioxx and Manculated very true. I too used to think that a man with more than one woman was courting trouble etc until I grew wiser. I also grew up among women so I know them like the back of my hands. I don't bother getting surprised at what they do anymore because I can now reflect on how they made decisions on men and life and rather than get annoyed I just smile. The other day, somoeone quoted me for Vilar


ThunderFireAgba:
Oga, don't use a book written for Western culture to equate that of Africa. Our indices are not the same just like so many factors differ across border.
I was initially responding until I realized the person was only interested in making an argument without reading the book. How that woman was able to accurately describe women needs to be studied. You know they say the men writing the book on UNDERSTANDING WOMEN haven't finished writing? They never will grin Esther was very helpful in writing that book and it describes women accurately across the globe.

You see how these women say his money, our money, my money, my money. That is the summary of franchasng message. You will even hear women say even if I'm working and I'm earning more than him, I still want him to spend on me. That's women for you. It's their nature. They are not built to be providers and the earlier men understand this, the better for them. Women are receivers, they are nurturers, once you make her start providing and hustle, you kill the feminine side of her and she starts acting like a man because it's her survival mode working. That's why such a woman is x2 more brutal in that mode.

Because men have not understood them or learned from Vilar, they get into problems with the women in their lives, their mothers and wives. If you know how women work, you will know how to manage these women in your life. Why is it only MIL that gives problem in the house, not the Father in lawhuh

You should read The Polygamous Sex too. Another book that will blow your mind.

This is pretty much how the gig economy was built to work.

It’s unfortunate, but it’s the reality. Platforms like Uber never really encouraged people to depend on them as their main income, and legally they’ve covered their bases.

Some drivers are still out working though (I’m literally in a Bolt right now). Hopefully the strike leads to something, but the glory days of Uber as a solid income source seem to be fading.
The economy can't afford it. Don't you think?
