Hmmm. Buhari really finish this country sha

If small emeifele can loot this much, I just can't imagine how much the northern cabals must have stolen. The hausa/fulani cabals that tinubu's efcc is afraid to go after. People who ought to be in thesame jail as emeifele if not a worse jail.

What's wrong with you Aminu. A man who's already 30, for how long will you keep doing this?

Generally, Nigerian elites across all ethnioc groups no do well. It is very disappointing. The north seems to have it worse than others. This development of a thing isn't that hard. I am all for respecting people's customs and culture, but at the same fostering prosperity and real-time development within the region.

Sorry, but why can't those children be told to work in farms and warehouses? Something to keep them actually busy.

Originally these kids are from the villages and thier poor parents send them to the city to learn more about Islam- or so they claim.

The almajiri system is akin to a boarding school where children live away from thier homes to learn from thier teachers. But unlike the conventional boarding school, the kids are left to fend for themselves since the mallam is also living in poverty and their parents never sent him any money for provision when they were shipping them

So the mallam have no choice than to send them out to go look for bread as early as 7am following morning studies. Then they return to school (mallam's residence) at sunset and engage in further studies till bed time.

President Jonathan planned to reform the system , complete with the provision of food, bathing, clothing and learning but he was shamed.

Definitely as the children grow older, they would need to stop begging.

By the time they're in thier mid to late teens, they would definitely leave the mallam's place start to get independent, learning new skills, trade and different types of works. There are some big businessmen in Kano who were once almajiris m

Sadly, there would also br quite a number who would go back the wrong path, banditry, terrorism, thieves and drugs.

Don't you love capitalism? I love it! It is the true essence of freedom and the right to choose.


What do you say about Adamawa and Taraba?

They also have a good popular of indigenous Christians but Kano and Kaduna are more populated both with the indigenous and southern settlers. Even in infrastructure, economically and security wise, the 2Ks are ahead. It was that elrufai that brought killer herdsmen to Kaduna. Makarfi, Namadi Sambo and Yakowa were peaceful and tolerant governors

Gerrard59:
The region has a big issue with tolerance and cohabitation.

Why isn't there a movement to copy or do things as those in the UAE, Qatar and now Saudi Arabia are doing?

It all depends on their leaders. Saudi Arabia you just mentioned was literally a very conservative society until they had a new crown prince in 2017 who implemented various reforms aimed at modernising the country and opening it to the rest of the world.

Leadership is very sacred in Islam. The Quran emphasizing the importance of loyalty and obedience to leaders even in challenging circumstances.

So if the leader is going to make a change, the followers are expected to offer thier full support even though he might not be totally right. Infact it has been stated that protesting against a leader is forbidden.

Just pray for Allah's guidance upon them. And if the leader's reforms or actions deviate from the teachings of Islam, Only Allah can judge him and the leader would be held accountable on the day of judgement.
(Reason why they still stuck with buhari even though he obviously didn't know what he was doing.)

Trust black man as how he dey manipulate and exploit religion for his own selfish and evil purposes

The Northern Nigerian elites continue to prioritize the own political agendas and interests rather than seeking the betterment of their people and region.

They don't want the people enlightened because it would threatened their own status.



Before the 2023 election when Peter obi took over the media by storm, kwankwaso just laughed and said "70 percent of his people are not on social media."

As a leader, is that something to be proud of or be ashamed of In this 21st century

Northern Nigeria is the only place in the world where you will find children in urban areas in large numbers, bowls in hand, roaming the streets for food. A phenomenon that can't be found in the poorest villages globally.

And the elites still don't see anything wrong with it. Infact they're proud of them and use them to brag and threaten the south during election.



Even me wey I no be hausa, the sight of those children dey torment my soul especially during this cold

The other time, emir Sanusi tried call them out but they all ganged up and took away his throne.

pinkguy:
Good I'm tired of Islamic program every day

It used to be the best channel those days sha

Lithiumite:
This is either a case of poor management or how economically down the north is ....private media broadcasters are springing up daily that you can't even lay count anymore.

You are right!

The beginning of the end started when the owner died in 2005 or there about and the elder brother took over.

amazingspiderma:
If you grew up in Kaduna surely you should know DITV in early 90's.

Desmin Independent Television.

Tenders club
Beats of our time.
Awarawa
Kowa meteloche

Those people wan use Tom and Jerry scatter my life.

No be lie. Especially on Saturday. You go watch Tom and Jerry and WWE all morning.

Infact when we are sure that our mother had gone to the market, we'll sneak from islamiyya and run back home just to watch wrestling.

Those days when wrestling dey sweeeet. Wallahi you can't just afford to miss it grin

Abokisulay:
Not forgetting the cable TV ABG

yuzjet:
Am I the only one seeing DITV for the first time ever?

DITV was founded by a kaduna state businessman and it's also based in the state, very sweet and educative station like that

dominique:
Channels started around 95/96.



Could be true. Galaxy has been operating in Ibadan years before opening a station in Lagos in the early 2000s. As far as those of us in Lagos can remember, it was DBN and Clapperboard that were the private TV stations that rescued us from the borefest called NTA in the early 90s. This Ditv claiming to be the first private TV station in Nigeria is not remotely familiar to me in anyway. Google says their station is in Ikeja Lagos and I've never heard of it? They should take it easy with the lies abeg

DITV is based in kaduna and owned by a northerner named Shariff Baba Ahmed. He's from same family with Datti Baba Ahmad, Obi's mate.

I was born in kaduna in the mid 90s and I have memories of watching the channel up until mid 2000s when the founder died and the elder brother took over operation.

Before the death of Shariff, you would hardly know that it's owner is a northerner because it was highly entertaining, diverse, educative, Disneycartoons, WWE, American soap operas(young and the restless, etc), nolly wood movies etc. Infact it was more sweeter than AIT sef ( since I watched AIT
too which was a Nationwide broadcast). Infact it is only when we want to watch superstory that we change to NTA

After the death of Shariff, the elder brother
who was more conservative declared all those things Haram and began to air hausa, hausa and Islamic, Islamic programs

That's when the channel started dying, like from 2007 downwards. It lost a huge number of viewership from his non Muslim audience.

They began to lose revenue too because nobody was coming to advertise with them anymore since they turned it to regional affair.

(Just so you know, the population of non-muslims in kaduna is almost similar to that in Lagos. Infact KD is the most civilised northern state followed by Jos)

Infact I thought the channel have died since, I didn't know it just died now

I don't really know if it's the first private station Sha.

Gerrard59:
What exactly is behind this ideological movement in the region? Don't they question "constituted authorities"? Also, outside the North East, how is Atiku viewed in other Northern regions?

Same way he's viewed in other northern states. Generally, everyone knows that apart from being corrupt, atiku is more detribalised than buhari and kwankwaso. Before the 2019 election, a friend told me that even though buhari had performed below par in his first term, atiku still isn't an option for him because he have alot southern and Christian friends

( The killing of Deborah in sokoto... When he spoke against it, remember how the core north attacked him on social media and even threatened that he will never get a single
vote from them in any election? )

They preferred buhari because he possesses same fanatical behavior ( remember what he said about implementing Sharia law when he becomes president and how he criticised Jonathan methods.."an attack on Boko Haram is an an attack on the north"

Anyway buhari turned out to be a big dissapointment during his time as president. They found out that he was not only a bigger thief than atiku, but also a scammer.

So they wouldn't hesitate to vote for the other brother atiku in the next election. Infact atiku won the north in the last election but APC and inec did thier thing as usual.

Eriokanmi:
We're still grappling with the failed port harcourt refineries, that's enough to shut you people's mouth. Leave them alone and face your evil mentors who keep plunging Nigeria into her abysmal end with propaganda and massive corruption.

Both Obi.and atiku had told the gospel truth that if elected, they'd sell off the moribund refineries, but the apc keeps using it as conduit pipe to embezzle the poor masses funds.

During the build up to the 2019 election when atiku mentioned that he was going to sell nnpc and the refineries, could you believe that alot of hausa people refused to vote for him because of that statement?

They voted for buhari instead.

Now see where we are today.

blowjohn:
As a politician, it would be very difficult for me to eat at another politician's house tho

This is exactly what was going through my mind. Infact I no trust that handshake between him and Obi

Even obasanjo mentioned in his book throughout his life he have never encountered anyone with a fascination for visiting sorcerers like atiku. Meanwhile OBJ na confirm Yoruba guy oo

During the 2015 election, atiku travelled all the way to Kano where I live to meet someone

TheChameleon:
Them don see maga. Public ATM.

Peter Obi should donate out of the goodness of his heart and God will bless good deeds.

But if he expects them to compensate him at elections. .. he's due for a shocker.

Northerners by default behave like a herd. By default, treat you lower if you can't speak Hausa. If you're an "unbeliever"... the situation is far worse.

And the 1966 foolishness has NEVER been forgiven. Might not be for 10,000 years. Maybe in a million years sha.

Behind his back, they will be sneering at Obi and mocking him for wasting Anambra's loot in the North.


Anyone who's lived in the North for a year knows these facts.

All Southern leaders, Peter Obi, Wike, Tinubu inclusive are foolish for these stupid donations to the North. Charity starts at home. Northerners don't asslick South like that.

Honestly I'll be very disappointed in Peter obi if he yields to thier demands

Mystic216:
During election, una go forget the generosity oo

No mind them. I live in Kano and I know exactly how they behave. That's how repaid Jonathan after he built several schools with the intention of taking almajiris our of the streets.

Kwankwaso himself was mocking Jonathan after buhari win. He said that thesame almajiris set him up with thier plates and tossed him to the floor.

BluntCrazeMan:
As for what Obi said in that audio recording,, (even if it was AI Generated),, he was just expressing fear about the Muslim-Muslim Ticket which was a total disregard for all other Religious Groups in Nigeria..

Everybody saw the religious insensitivity there.

And I will say this here now,, if a popular northern Christian decides to choose a popular Southern Christian as a running mate in the future,, the type of religious clap-back they would receive from the Muslims will be out of this world,, even though the muslims themselves had already tried it in 2023 and they saw nothing wrong in it.

You're making sense

Mrfeel:
The audio voice note people like Reno omokri were using to attack obi saying obi called for a religious war in a phone conversation with oyedipo was purely AI generated but alot of Nigerians believed it was real

Really?

Wallahi I never knew

That audio kind of changed my mind towards him. I stopped liking and respecting him as before again.

Chai!

Angelfrost:
Lol... Divorce lawyers are about to get really busy.

I no understand this comment.

I can also see the governor of katsina and the minister of defense there please.

No be only tinubu suppose go?

What are they all doing in France, I really don't understand.

Ok, you could refer me to the article when it's finally published. Thanks.

Lol, Boss, I'm talking from experience. I also own a cat and if it's not meat, she hardly eats any other thing. Even though you want her to eat rice or any other food, if you don't put it in her own special plate, she wouldn't even look at it.

Mummytoo:
Good day everyone

Please my kitchen is infested with cockroach on a high level. I have used insecticide to spray, it's not working. I bought otapiapia (local strong chemical) still not working.

I have wasted money to buy whatever they advertise but no way, I'm scared because I don't want to eat cockroaches someday, they are everywhere in my kitchen, you dare not leave anything open else it's gone...


Pls if you have had this experience before, what did you do or use, I need help. They are hiding everywhere... The cupboards, cabinets, any dark area at all, and when no one is at home, they become the landlords.


Pls help

Madam if you are not too superstitious, just get a cat and the coachroaches in your house will go extinct in less than a week. Coachroaches is thier favorite snacks while rat is the main meal.

You can allow them to roam into your kitchen anytime, no problem. One good thing about cat is that they are very neat and respect themselves. They will never touch a food that isn't meant for them, even if it's uncovered.

lendahand:
those northern women, what's their secret for smooth child bearing??

Good morning
I believe their lifestyle could be a major contributing factor. Majority of the northerners still strongly maintain traditional and religious values. I'd say about 90 percent of northern women wait until marriage to lose thier virginity.

Even when they get married, northeners still frown at birth control pills and methods. We all know that.

Generally speaking, It has been suggested that hormonal contraceptives, abortion pills could interfere with a woman's fertility in the future.

You see, it's not just about the eggs released every month, there's also an intricate web of reproductive system and every part play a role in fertility and birth.

Also, the regular food people eat might influence their overall health and immunity. The core and improverished north consume fresh and locally source food which are still nutrient-dense. This is way better than junk food and sugary snacks.

Honestly, I've never met or heard of a hausa woman with fibroids. But that doesn't mean they're non-existent.

Gerrard59:
An interesting observation you have made there. This is the kind of study I would put my money into: the study into the supposed divergence between Northern Nigerian women and their counterparts in the south during late childbearing. Or phrased as: "Are there more childbirth deformities as a result of late childbearing in the south than in the north? If yes, why?"

As for birth rates, yes, the birth rate is higher in the north than in the south. I recalled when I stated so a few months ago but was rebuffed. lol.

Link (free-to-read): https://archive.md/3UMVL

Good morning.

Ofcourse there are birth defects Boss. But it's very rare. The most I've seen are that of polio, which is not exactly a birth defect. Still births are far more common.

Perhaps when it comes to birth defects other factors might come to play aside age of the women.

tete7000:
I am the last in my house and my mum gave birth to me when she was over 40 and thought she was done with childbearing and I am not deformed. I have a sister who had spinal cord injury, she had her last child with her condition after she was 40 and the child is a big graduate and employed now. I have seen people who were young and gave birth to deformed children. So where do all these your assertion come into my experience? How does someone like me relate to it? They are simply some of those baseless biases some of you decide to build around life. God should be allowed to guide people individually in their choices in life. There will be so many who marries early and won't have children until late in their marriages, infact there has been many like that without deformed children. If your life is ruled by such fears, you can keep them to yourself and your immediate families,.no need to stop spreading panics and your paranoia to others.

Bro. Thanks for your this. I've seen many comments saying " statistics that have proven that getting pregnant over 35 years is risky" and blablabla and I'm kinda confused.




Here in the north, some women will get married at their late teens or early twenties and continue to give birth till the day they stop seeing her menses, 45, 50 or 55. Giving birth to 12, sometimes 14, or 17 children. Infact I've even seen a woman who dropped 21 children and there was no twins o. All na single births.

What's more intriguing, southerners no dey born plenty. I guess the average children amongst households over there is 2 kids, especially in this economy. But a average hausa woman at age 35 might still go ahead and add like 3 to 5 children to the kids she already have.

Here in the north, it is very common to see a woman whose first grandchildren are same age as her own last borns or even older sef.

Mind you, quite a number of northern women still give birth successfully at home rather than opting for the hospitals, even the ones that are above 30 years. No surrogacy or IVF no nothing and the baby very healthy.

Are these commenters saying that women in the southern part of Nigeria were built differently since they are prone to a higher risk pregnancy due to age according to "statistics?"

Have you guy's found Dube's killers yet? Lol. Murdering your own icons on the streets.

Meanwhile, what is Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma doing about Orania? She can't be an anti-aparthied champion and Orania is alive in her nation.. Of course she can't do shit... She's a sub human like you. Coon that's okay being second class in her own nation

She was found collapsed in her home and taken to the hospital, where she died on May 9. The press was initially told that she had suffered cardiac arrest, but later reported that she had slipped into a coma from an asthma attack. The post-mortem report revealed that she had taken an overdose of cocaine on the night of her collapse.
