What has your observation of witnessing people of diverse age groups enjoying the festive season, having a sit out and enjoying meals in peace has to do with living recklessly and partying ‘too much’??

There’s a contrast between your observation and personal assumptions.

This is festive and holiday season and people of all ages are enjoying themselves outside. This is good and of benefit to their mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing as opposed to your assumptions.

Being disciplined and serious doesn’t mean you can’t eat, drink and chat with friends and family.

You did not witness any strange or dangerous behaviours. You just added that.

pansophist:
What you described are people having seasonal fun, that’s not hedonism.

For something to qualify as hedonistic, it has to be harmful, excessive and addictive in nature.

You probably will walk to a wedding ceremony where people are having fun and call it hedonism.

examples of hedonism are reckless sex with multiple partners, habitual drinking and drug usage.

Be calming down.

Honestly, I strongly feel there's something very intentional about the way they positioned beautiful, fair-skinned women around Akpabio.

Look at the pattern clearly, Natasha Akpoti is a beautiful woman, no doubt.

Then here comes Bianca Ojukwu, another stunning, fair-skinned beauty.


It’s almost as if they’re saying, “What Natasha couldn’t do, Bianca can do better.”

You don’t even need binoculars to see the game being played.

If not for the clash and fallout between Natasha and Akpabio, I am very sure Natasha would have been the face we’d be seeing in those smiling pictures today, not Bianca.

Akpabio’s preference is almost laughably obvious. Fair and fine women seem to be his weakness.

Nothing wrong with having a "type," but make it less obvious, sir!

That said, let Akpabio tread carefully. Because if he dares provoke the spirit of Dim Odumegwu Ojukwu, all because he's now cozying up to BIANCA in public functions, e fit turn another thing o!

People seems not to realise that it is the Americans, NOT the Chinese that bears the burden of tariffs.

The over 100% tariffs would be paid by American importers to the US government. So I keep wondering, how are the Chinese punished?

Trump is just so stupid.

Most importantly, the Chinese-US trade is less than 4% of China's GDP. Thats a very small amount. ASEAN is China's largest trading partner, followed by the EU.

The world is larger than the US, and the Chinese will trade with other countries. It is a free world indeed. I bet you, as things unfold, probably at the dawn of this decade, there will be a reformulation of multilateral organisations.

The present multilateral framework doesnt work, and it has been undermined, trampled on and ignored by the very people who claimed to be the guardian of it.

All Trump's rhetorics have undermined international rule base rder they always yap about. It is against WTO rules, and completely unilateral.

I dont think China, Russia, and the true international community (outside the minority west) wants to operate on that system anymore. And after the war in Ukraine is over, the impending reunification of Taiwan has been achieved, then a reformation of global order will naturally kickstart.

What Trump is doing is comparable to a menopausal lady who still thinks she can still bargain like she is still 18 years old. At best, its a comforting delusion, but she is the only deluded one, not the world out there.

What smart people do is that they will hope and pray you give them a justification to deal with you. Like a man who is waiting for his girlfriend to cheat on him, or insult him, and he will use it as an excuse to execute his true intention of chasing her off.

Trump has given China the hammer, nail and sacrificed America as a receiver of China's aggression, and I guarantee you, China will not missed that chance.

Evil will always destroys itself, and that what is America is doing. As far as I am concern, its good news. Let the tariff stays and let us see who wins.

I'm embarrassed to say I was 22! But hey, at least I learned something new that day 🤷‍♂️.

Tsarbomba:
Hey Nairalanders, let's have a laugh and a moment of truth 😂. I'm curious to know at what age you guys discovered that babies come out of the 'front door' 🚪 and not the 'back door'? 🤷‍♂️

I'll never forget my embarrassing moment. I was 20 years old, hanging out with friends, and we started discussing childbirth. I confidently said, "Babies come out of the 'back door'!"🚪 My friends burst out laughing, and one of them said, "Dude, you're killing me!" 😂

I was so embarrassed, but also relieved to finally know the truth. But I'm sure I'm not the only one who was clueless for a while.

So, how old were you when you discovered the truth about childbirth? Was it a funny moment or an embarrassing realization? Share your stories and let's have a good laugh!

Tsarbomba:
Make I ask you, how you go take enjoy life without people to share am with? No be solo enjoyment dey sweet pass? I remember when I go visit my village for Christmas. The whole family dey there, cousins, aunties, uncles. We dey laugh, dey dance, dey eat. That na happiness. Solitude no fit give me that kind of joy.
Even in Europe, where they have a strong culture of individualism, people are starting to realize the importance of community and connection. In Denmark, for example, they have a concept called 'hygge', which is all about finding happiness in the company of others.!

Baronthecelebri:
It is better to be alone and be happy than be with someone and be unhappy.

Princewill1:
Being a "Lone Wolf" will have you live a peaceful mediocre or an average life and you may live longer life.

But, If you want to make great impact in your life, community and the world as a man, you need a tribe of men. All great men in the past followed this pattern including Christ.

I'm introverted myself but this is fact.

GreenDee:
well I think we are just introverts are we gonna call that loneliness 🤔

Goodlyhrt:
Making friends..with the things I've learnt right now should be strategic and for your own selfish interest 😁 no hard feelings, if it doesn't work out, I move 😎.

You have to be really snake-like and smart too in this world to survive bro. Even Jesus approves of it 🤗

My advice to those that want to hear it: Be in good terms with everybody. Difficult but try. Infact convince everybody that you are friendly with them (actively pretend that you are really interested in everyone) then sitback and reap the reward also prepare the ground for backstabbing. I.e. be one step ahead of everyone ✌️


It's a cruel world and the less powerful you become the worse for you.

Power lies in the amount and quality of people you influence 😎

Sometimes it's better to be alone than to move with snakes.

One day, your momma won't call you anymore.
The phone will lie silent, devoid of her warm voice, her laughter, and her gentle scolding.
One day, you'll realize that you'll never again hear her say, 'I love you,' or 'I'm proud of you.'
The thought alone is enough to bring tears to your eyes.
One day, you will wish she had lived more days to enjoy your time with her.
You'll wish you could turn back the clock and spend more hours, more days, and more years with her.
You'll wish you could have made more memories, shared more laughter, and created more moments that would last a lifetime.
One day, she'll stop telling you to stop with your jokes.
Her laughter, which once echoed through the halls of your home, will be silenced.
You'll miss her teasing, her playful nudges, and her warm smiles.
You'll miss the way she made you feel like you were the funniest person in the world.
One day, she'll stop giving you the advice she thinks is right for you.
Her guidance, which once helped shape you into the person you are today, will be gone.
You'll miss her words of wisdom, her gentle encouragement, and her unwavering support. You'll miss the way she made you feel like you could conquer the world.
One day, you will find the house where she was always waiting for you with a cup of hot coffee upon arrival, empty.
The silence will be deafening, the stillness a stark reminder of her absence.
You'll miss the way she made your favorite meals, the way she decorated the house for holidays, and the way she made every day feel like a special occasion.
One day, her voice will no longer be heard. The sound of her laughter, her singing, and her gentle whispers will be reduced to memories.
You'll miss the way she used to read you stories, the way she used to sing you lullabies, and the way she used to whisper words of encouragement in your ear.
One day, only memories will remain. Time flies and waits for nothing and nobody.
It's a harsh reality, one that we often try to ignore.
But the truth is, time is fleeting, and the moments we share with loved ones are precious.
And on that day, you will feel a void so great that nothing and no one can fill.
You'll find yourself wandering the empty halls of your childhood home, searching for ghosts of memories past.
You'll find yourself scrolling through old photos, reminiscing about happier times. You'll find yourself clinging to the memories of her laughter, her smile, and her warm hugs.
But even in the midst of grief, there is a lesson to be learned.
A lesson about the importance of cherishing every moment, of appreciating every second, and of loving every person in your life.
Because one day, they won't be there anymore, and all you'll have are memories.
So, while your momma is still with you, make the most of every moment.
Listen to her stories, laugh at her jokes, and soak up her love.
Because one day, she'll be gone, and you'll be left with only memories to hold onto.

Botragelad:
You must be havin a laugh if you think countries don't put their own interests first. That's just how the game is played. Every country's out for themselves, trying to get the upper hand.

I'm chuckling when I see Africans getting all matey, lovey with Russia and China, thinking they're gettin' a sweet deal. But those countries are just looking out for themselves, same as everyone else.

It's all about self-interest. They might be all smiles and hugs at first, but at the end of the day, they're just trying to get what's best. That's just the way the world works! 🤷‍♂️

How are the mighty fallen
I think we could be doing more to address addiction. For one, we need to break down the stigma surrounding addiction and make it easier for people to seek help. We also need to invest more in research and treatment options, so that we can better understand addiction and develop more effective ways to address it. Additionally, we need to address the root causes of addiction, such as poverty, trauma, and mental health issues. Until we can provide comprehensive support to those struggling with addiction, we'll continue to see tragic losses like Amy Winehouse.
