It's not about writing. What about collation and mathematics Didn't you hear the president yesterday when he signed the electoral act? They are not going to rig at the PU areas, they will rig at at collation and announcement of results."Who do you think you are?" "I have integrity" |
dettolgel:He is building for the future I guess. When the time comes, he wants it to be about him and what he had done in the past. I remember the Imo guy, Okorocha too. |
Burob:Don't you think it's hypocritical from a city person to deny his village A hypocrite is not measured by where they live, but by whether their words and actions grow from the same roots. Where are you rooted? What did your city/village teach you? Which ones can you teach your children? |
Obiedun:Hahaha but I am glad he has enough balls for interviews. Many of those who want to represent us cannot stand debates or attend TV interviews. They can't defend themselves. When last did you see our president attend a media chat? That's why Buhari no send una for 8 years. Even Obasanjo wey be former military man still follow him people talk. Make we de play...Last month the man de answer question about wetin he do 20 years ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odDV8eJmdXk Olusegun Obasanjo: Presidential Media Chat July 2001 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xsEg9SfdeY Exclusive interview with Olusegun Obasanjo - 29 May https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8LdTp4nQ6g Foreign or local, our President then de answer any question but this one, ta! Na media aide de talk for am. Who has balls ![]() |
Nigerians only think of what they can get now, they don't think about the long term. You see ehn, these things people laugh about and think is a joke, you won't know the impact until you travel out. The kind of things our so-called leaders say and do destroys Nigeria's image more than anything else. When you travel abroad, you will be scrutinized like you stole their pants. You will search for jobs and even when they have checked that you are clean, they will look at how your country has people who are dodgy and lack character. You will have to start again and collect their own cerification so that they can trust you. Make una de play... No be everything be village people, the one wey city boys de do in front of you eh 👀 |
creativejagaban:Then it means you did not understand my first post you quoted. |
Burob:I do not reside in the village of “Grab it, snatch it, and run away with it. ” I do not dwell in the village of Power without conscience. I do not come from the village of Ambition without accountability. I do not belong to the village of Win at all costs, even if the soul is lost. I do not live in the village of Buying loyalty with money. Nor in the village of Enslaving people for what is already theirs. Nor in the village of Trading dignity for temporary gain. I reside in the village of Integrity over greed, deceit and corruption. The village of Leadership with empathy, where everyone genuinely shares in the pain of others and not only the leader taking care of his family and palace while we all look. The village of Honest labour and earned success, not questionable wealth and no industry to show for it. Pride of honest earnings keeps our mind at rest. Dishonest earnings is cursed. The village of Pride in hard work, unashamed of its roots and origin. The village of Conscience before conquest. And in that village, Human dignity is not for sale. I am proud of my village because in it is where my identity is born and my values are rooted. What village/city do you come from sir?

Whatever you do, as a man, ALWAYS INVEST IN YOURSELF. KEEP BUILDING YOURSELF as a man. Take this to the bank. Every 10 years, ask yourself if you are improving. Trust me, many men stop improving themselves and sacrifice themselves for family, forgetting that those you are leading in your family and household are looking up to you as a leader. My guy, do something to improve yourself too, otherwise see finish will Support her but don't do it at your own expense. Support yourself too as you are supporting her. Call it competition, I don't care. Many men forget to improve themselves. Women will lose interest in you when they see that you are not at the level they met you. Your tomorrow as a man is more exciting than your yesterday. That is the bitter truth.

thomas2024:Enjoy your lunch sir but let me give you these two interviews to watch first. Digest them and let us see your analysis afterwards. I look forward to hearing from you later on. 1. Kunle Afolayan Responds to Cinema, YouTube & Collaboration Debates in Nollywood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-bwtRGNDGw ☝️ This was the interview that generated the story you are talking about. 2. Kunle Afolayan’s Interview At Arise After the Funke Akindele Remarks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXcY2be0Ar0 I will give you mine before I read from you. It was obvious a lot of people did not watch the event where Kunle made the remarks about the film industry. I too would have been carried away by the news I read so I watched not only Kunle's talk at the event, but added Mo and the other business tycoon who talked about the business of film industry. One thing I found remarkable was how respectful Kunle was to the older ones at the event and the cinema operators who he has a problem with. He called Mo Abudu aunty or something like that. Those are people he competes with, yet he gave honor to whom it is due. He recognized even the short film makers and that is why he believes the sky is big enough for everyone - do your thing and I do my thing. Focus on your focus, I focus on my focus but our people have a comprehension problem. They always want to compare and fight for laurels. When I watched the Arise interview, his friend, the anchor made the interview about Kunle and Funke but he was able to explain his side of the story and say what happened and how he wasn't attacking anyone. We have not heard from Funke yet but I sense a form of insecurity and competition. I had quoted Bovi as a reference in my earlier comment and that is because the OG are seeing that there is a new bandwagon of this generation who are loud and rude and they act like a mob because their favorite is talked about. Seun Kuti has observed this in Wizkid Mob, Sunday Oliseh said this of Osimhen just to mention a few. This generation believes in noise and money. They believe that who are you to question them when they are making money. They don't believe in those who were there before them and the internet. They don't see the full picture, they are carried away by the fame but the OGs know the game and want the proper share of the pie. Every young generation get strong head but this their own is the most abusive and history is kind to the future. Una go learn, just give it time. Time is a patient gentleman. Finally, I think they should be thankful to Kunle for fighting for the industry because if you remove the matter of personalities, he is simply saying LET THE MONEY COME TO THE FILMMAKERS and their people. Don't sell it to foreigners just because.... Even Mo Abudu said the same thing when she shared her experience at the event but who wan hear go hear. |
Leave the internet first, stop explaining on the internet. She may have realised that the comment will do more damage to her then she retracted it. It's sad that today's generation does not have family or mentors to share their experiences with before going online and being fed to the wolves who want to use them for content.

Picture: The Dream Of Every Village Boy Is To Become A City Boy — True Or False? by LegendHero(m): 5:42pm On Feb 19 The ultimate dream of every “Village Boy” is to become a “City Boy”. I posted this comment on that thread. I asked AI to answer. Read this Short answer? No — but it depends on what you mean by “village” and “city.” That statement sounds catchy, but it oversimplifies a lot. Why some people might think it’s true: Cities usually offer more jobs, exposure, money, and opportunities. Social media glamorizes “city life” as success. Many people move from rural areas to urban areas for economic growth. So yes, for some, becoming a “city boy” represents access and advancement, not necessarily rejection of their roots. --- Why it’s not universally true: Some “village boys” dream of building their village, not escaping it. Peace, community, land ownership, and slower living appeal to many. Some people move to cities and later return home by choice. Identity isn’t automatically upgraded by location. Success isn’t geographic — it’s contextual. --- A deeper way to frame it: It’s not that every village boy wants to become a city boy. It’s that many people want: Better opportunity Financial independence Recognition Broader exposure The city just happens to symbolize those things. But plenty of “city boys” secretly crave the simplicity and grounded nature of village life. So the real question is: Is the dream about location… or about leverage? If this was part of an argument, I can also help you craft a sharp response depending on the angle you want to take. My comment: I was surprised with how AI wrote this but it made me think about something it wrote, AUTHENTICITY. It means that you should be proud of your roots and where you come from. Isn't it ironical that someone who is not proud of his Osun roots is claiming City Boy? Give me someone who is not ashamed to trace their roots and I'll give you a tree.

creativejagaban:What is deliberate about the lie and where is the misinformation. If you can define this two, then I will know if you are really intellectual or just have a ♾️ hat to pass time. |
dettolgel:I think his own came early because of Obasanjo's influence back then. |
creativejagaban:Don't worry about research. From your comments, I can tell where to invest my research energy ![]() |
creativejagaban:Why are you so triggered ![]() My reposted comment was from the question asked on this thread Picture: The Dream Of Every Village Boy Is To Become A City Boy — True Or False? by LegendHero(m): 5:42pm On Feb 19 The ultimate dream of every “Village Boy” is to become a “City Boy”. I copied and pasted the bolded into AI and that's the result. |
Ohibenemma:He often leaves a cliffhanger which is an assignment for students. Those who studied drama then have to analyse and interpret and conclude on their own. He recently said his movies are for intellectuals Something about his movies is that he has the possibility of doing a part 2 or series when he drops it off for you to conclude.

This guy should be studied for the BUSINESS OF FILMMAKING. Underline the word, BUSINESS. I remember back then when he did The CEO and partnered with an airline. He is always looking for ways to make sure that film business is serious business. That was the movie he made sure entered flights. He is also always insisting that creators must be rewarded for their creativity instead of selling it for peanuts and fame. Anyone who undermines him is not serious yet.

owobokiri:. He has been penciled for Presidency for some time, so it's no surprise. It appears he sees Obi as a threat to this ambition because they are from the same state and no S East state has ever been at the Presidency. Guess what? Yar Adua and Buhari came from Katsina and have ruled this country twice. Obi once defeated him during the Governorship campaign. I think that loss hurt his ego, that's why he still seems to revenge the loss till date.

yinkus6750:But Wike has been expelled by the party or am I getting it wrong? He does not belong to PDP. |

KhalifaJay:Do not waste your time on revenge. Ignoring them is the best revenge you can give them. Be thankful to them for shaping you into who you are today. Their rejection has helped you today. Invest the energy for this revenge plan on yourself. https://www.tiktok.com/video/7589557370200608007

boxypane:You should take the last line to bed sir. And yes, I think highly of myself. I’m not trying to be above anyone. I was just raised to approach things with structure and respect. If that feels intense, it’s just different standards. I am grateful to the teachers and elders who passed the knowledge of discipline, respect and humility to me. If that bothers you, I'm sorry. Is that pride? No. I am humble enough to take corrections, learn and unlearn and agree to disagree. I read comments here and share (using the share button) what I agree with and even the ones I disagree with because in the disagreement, the person may have 1/2 points that are valid. Wisdom is knowing that we learn everyday and no one knows it all. It's other people's wisdom that prevents the king from being called a fool. We have had people like this before so it's nothing new. What people do is learn from the past and not try to prove their point. After all, Oliseh that advised him was also heady during his time. Shouldn't Oliseh say ride on, no gree for everybody? It's the lessons he has learned during his time that makes him reflect today. Didn't their set storm out of camp or resist to play games against NFF? Isn't it this attitude that cost Nigeria the Denmark game in 98? Weren't Senegalese players angry at the AFCON but the wisdom and experience of Mané prevailed? What did Mané say to them? That's another assignment for you. Attitude is everything, football, basketball, volleyball or boxing. Attitude determines your altitude. Again, he has repeated what Oliseh highlighted at the AFCON, this time, with his club teammate. During that time, one of the things I wrote is that there's a place and time for everything. Footballers fight but home affairs are not talked about on the public square. https://www.tiktok.com/video/7597741373017656584 Eto'o too could flare up but if you fail to take correction in your youth, you will sit in old age where you prepared for in youth. At the AFCON, he was fined for his bad behaviour now that he has hung his boots. Comparing Osimhen to Mbappe or anyone else is to me a sign of inferiority complex. No one has any problems with being vocal. I was just watching a video of Drogba shouting at the Referee in that 2009 game in the UCL where it was rigged against their team. Tempers flare in the game that's why they put disciplinary measures. Hellooooo, there was Wayne Rooney, both the clubs and the FA had to manage him and it took time. We have had players who were bullish. Even Zlatan did and they still cut him at certain points in his career. We all can't be the same but there was a reason Garba Lawal was always called by different SE coaches. Enyeama spoke up, Okocha did, Obi and Yobo all spoke. Odemwingie spoke so much that despite his talent, we saw how his transfer saga made the tales. Attitude is everything and if that is a problem for anyone, their personality is yet to mature in my humble opinion. Do not forget the last line here, God bless you for that advice. Thank you. |
boxypane:Your response is typical so I won't engage further. People, we can learn how to comment and analyze, everything is not always an attack but you can't give what you don't have. I would not spend so much time investing in explaining to someone when their current state has not attained the level my explanation is necessary for ![]() Edit: some work for you, find the difference between criticism and critique.
|
boxypane:Juvenile. Football is not just your skills on the pitch, it's about your attitude on and off the pitch. The way you talk, the way you address your teammates and what you post online now that there is social media. Only babies want everyone to understand them like the WHY ALWAYS ME guy. Parents call that "throwing tantrums". Attitude is more important than talent. Talent is never enough.

OlujobaSamuel:I don't want to argue but thanks for sharing your perspective. Remember we had Otedola and Lawan back then. There was Obi and Pastor. Emefiele phone call. Wike phone call and Sahara Reporters have historically posted these calls online. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUnWDgEMDa8 Leaked Audio: I Phoned Pastor Oyedepo But Never Called The Election A Religious War - Peter Obi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUw5oI8dqXE |
OlujobaSamuel:I checked. I want the exact section. I know it talks about privacy. Under Section 37 of the Constitution: The privacy of citizens, their homes, correspondence, and telephone conversations is guaranteed and protected. I had posted earlier that there is no prohibition but what is now done with the conversation you were a part of is a different topic.
|
CLOUDRepublic:What part of THE LAW are you referring to? Evidence Act? The Constitution? Data Privacy Law? Cybercrime Act? Please be specific. Thank you. There is no Nigerian law that expressly requires you to inform the other party before recording a conversation you are part of. That is what is called a one-party consent. Now, what is done with that conversation you were a part of and is shared with the public or internet is now another thing but I want to ask you, KWAM 1 was recorded on a phone call with the president. Was that illegal ![]() https://www.tiktok.com/video/7461234151736347910 |
OlujobaSamuel:This is not true. I want you to cite the law that is broken. Nigerian law does NOT expressly prohibit a participant from recording their own conversation and there is no specific “two-party consent” statute in Nigeria. If you are more knowledgeable about this, educate me. Thank you. |
KWAM 1 recorded the audio call he had with the president. The Tompolo guy published the letter he received from the president. Am I surprised by this story? Ramadan Kareem Karimu Ikotun |
It is not African music history, it is American music history. Note the difference. If una like, keep looking for what does not belong to you. Someone yesterday gave the best response to this craze about American recognition 👇 kiddaz: |
hukslaw:Comprehension is a skill. I urge you to use it sir. |
