Romance › Re: “You Can't Even Say Hello Without Getting Billed" — Ojay Wright On Dating by SmartyPants(m): 6:33pm On Sep 22
Zionmdde:
How many guys does he say hello to?

Then stop saying hello to them

We men are the reason women treat us they way do. Some will see strangers and start asking them out, what do you expect?

Billing is not a women thing, men also bill, from Lagos agberos to security guards in public places.
This is a highly unreasonable rejoinder.

He did not say billing was a women thing. He was asked what his biggest culture shock was in regard to dating and he gave a simple answer. In another context, or in answering another question, the billing by agberos and security guards may also come up.

This one doesn't even know his people... its unfortunate he isn't governor today cos his people rigged him out ... the Igbos were the reason he had that chance ... he thinks aligning with his people will give him that seat 😂🤣😅... the guy truly dont know what politics is all about ... he wudnt even get 10% of what he got the last time... as long as his mother is igbo... those people will forever hate him
So your own idea of politics is aligning with a specific ethnic group against another? Interesting that you finally admit the Obidient project is an ethnic enterprise. We've known this all along

A simple comment on accountability not directed at you is raised and you feel the need to defend what you claim you never did.

Your problem is trying to hide behind a pinky finger.

Who made the whole going to UNGA a big deal? Who was bragging about bat sitting next to trump?

Was it not you and your kind that were blowing vuvuzelas about bat going to UNGA? Now that he has disappointed you noisy fellows, you are looking for where to hang your shame.

And how was his going to UNGA going to affect price of garri when you were all disturbing the peace about him sitting next to trump at UNGA?
Lol exactly as you all talk on the side of the divide. Not a single difference in the melodramatic pattern of thinking and speech, almost as if you are half debating, half putting on a show of how many colorful expressions you can cram into the one angry tirade.

But alas, can you show me one place where I made a big deal about going to the UNGA? cheesy Of course you can't because I never did. You have no point at all.

So how come attendance at UNGA no longer benefits nigeria after all the noise about bat sitting next to trump?

You chaps just spww whatever illogical things that come to your head just to defend the ego tripping kleptomaniac
Your problem is that you think like an automation. cheesy

My comment clearly said, you're half right. The half right part is that we should demand accountability which includes questioning the change of position from the various officials.

The half wrong part is making a fuss over the UNGA. You have not been able to explain it's significance to the price of garri, have you?
Politics › Re: Peter Obi Did Not Pay Water Corporation Staff And He Gave Reasons - Media Aide by SmartyPants(m): 4:07pm On Sep 21
FSBoperator:
See the nonsense rubbish they are writing.

So Obi decided not to pay them because they did not submit blueprint for what exactly ?

But same Peter Obi was packaging budgets throughout his 8ys to include funding the water board and it's staff salaries and emoluments .

So where did the approved money for the water works go to since obi did not invest in capital projects and in paying staff salaries.

That means the entire Anambra did not have a functioning water board throughout the 8ys of Peter Obi and same Peter Obi was drawing funds for same Water Board and not paying the staff or investing in the entire operations .

And this one is telling us Willie Obiano settled the staff and pensioners and saying he doesn't know why the matter is being brought up after Obiano cleared the salaries and pensions of the staff.

You see how wicked and evil those supporting Obi are.

Just imagine this evil heartless wicked man is the President and is surrounded by his equally heartless supporters and cronies.
The thing shocked me - staff of a government institution should submit a blueprint for revival to receive their pay??

davillian:

In develop country your skill and knowledge if far more important than your physical appearance…
You people have this talent for talking absolute nonsense. Pull up pictures of any political officer's bodyguards and you will indeed see that most of them have no noticeable muscle mass. They look just like this fellow.

Simultaneously, pull up pictures of any western celebrities bodyguards, and you will notice they look muscular just like our own.

Common sense should dictate that different classes of VIPs have different security needs. Your local celebrity's security largely functions as a bouncer, to keep fans from getting too close. Politically exposed persons don't need that because you can't get close to begin with. Their bodyguards largely function as threat assessors and respond with firearms not brute force.

You give excuse for Deception and lack of accountability.

No one forced the presidency to make the statement about going to UNGA and sitting close to Trump. Now that the situation has changed, don't the masses deserve an explanation?

The president takes public funds and splurges on private trips, you provide excuses. The trip that directly relates to Nigerian affairs on the global stage, he goes missing without explanation, and you still justify it.
cheesy I justified it? Where and how? Do you people actually read what you're responding to or you just have preprogrammed responses?

1vandragon:
Yet, the Nigerian representative at the UN was boasting that bat will be there...

Ok. So why won't bat be there? Can a reason be given? At least let Nigerians know why a change of itinerary after the public showmanship that he will be attending...

And to those who keep supporting bat blindly (pun intended), you will do well to put your country first and demand accountability from those in power.

As it stands, BAT's tactic of trying to be mysterious does not lend itself to proper accountability and responsibility to the masses.
Clever pun but you are only half right. In reality I doubt attendance at the UNGA really has ever benefitted Nigeria as such. There are more serious things to bat an eyelid over, if you ask me. And yes, pun equally intended.

You will also claim damages and what we call costs. 250k can easily become 2 million depending on the facts of the case.

On the mere premise of the claim that the world is moving away from fossil fuels and therefore the refinery has a bleak future, I know this one doesn't know anything at all. It will take at least 50 years for the most advanced economics to fully achieve this switch and much, much longer for the rest of the world.

And that is assuming the politicians come on board which of course they have not and will not.

This one should be ignored.

"thanks" is a word of gratitude. I think what you want from her is not just gratitude, but "worship". Unfortunately, she may not see a gift of 15k as deserving of worship. I don't see it too,though.
thanks is a low effort expression of gratitude and you know it. If I pay for something and you give me my change, I may say thanks or thank you even though it's my right. It's the barest minimum. The ingrate didn't even bother to punctuate her message.

Come in stop gaslighting this guy.

There are nuances around human communication. You can infer sincere gratitude from the ornamentation...for example,

Ah ah, thanks a lot o; Thank you, I appreciate this; thanks bros, you do well; all indicate effort has been put into the appreciation which, in human communication shows that the effort put into the gift is appreciated.

And don't for one second decieve yourself that it is every thanks offered to God that is received. Go and ask Cain.

Just the same way Obi's handover notes were incomplete, carefully omitting the debts he foisted on his successors while playing the saint to the world.

Well I've never been fooled for even a day so no surprises there. Jokes on you.

PDPdestroyer:
There’s nothing too uncanny for these people to say. Sometimes, I wonder if the same God created us, with the way their thought process works. Their own evolution followed a completely different trajectory
It's strategic.

When you can convince yourself that everyone else is oppressing you it becomes easier to:

1. Cheat the others after all they are the ones cheating you already according to your internal theory of victimhood

2. Convince your fellow tribesman that he should only buy from you because that is the only way the two of you will prosper.

3. Convince yourself that you are special that is why others hate you

4. Convince your women not to marry outside no matter how badly you treat them or how little effort you put into keeping the relationship, after all you are special and the "special" gene must be preserved

5. Shame the weak-minded members of the other groups into pandering to your interests since they feel guilt at your manufactured sense of being oppressed.

So don't think the victim mentality is accidental. It's a very intentional thought process.

Wayo man. How can you credit Dangote as an example of moving from consumption to production while discrediting or refusing to see anything good with the government that created the policies that made this possible?

Meanwhile, the Obi himself, who is a major businessman never built any factories and only discovered production is better than consumption in 2023.

How do this man's supporters rationalise this?

Armaggedon:
Funny somehow, considering that just a year ago, a lot of people from southwest Nigeria flooded the comment section of South Social media pages and joined them to attack Chidimma, and encouraged South Africans to see her as Igbo and chase her (a citizen) out of their country. Chidimma went on to become the first runner up of miss universe ie the second most beautiful girl in the world, narrowly missing out as the winner.
This one is lucky, arguably, she is being fairly criticized not persecuted.
Unfortunately, not everyone has the Igbo spirit to defeat odds.

It can only go around, then come around.
Country: England
Girl: Yoruba
Comment: Igbo

But he was not the saint he's portrayed to be either.
