igbosarejews: Flattened with the Use of Nuclear weapons, aren't that cowardice. Meanwhile, Ukraine will soon produce its own nuclear weapons and ICBMS, let's see how peaceful the world would be
You should also watch an interview given by the Saudi Crown Prince and his response on whether Saudi Arabia would pursue a nuclear weapons program.
Many countries are watching. Even South Africa had an active nuclear weapons program in the 80s. They were forced to shut it down and release Mandela in exchange for lifting on sanctions.
Some of us had been noising it for long that Russia was only using 10% of its military capacity in Ukraine.
If they decide to up the game, Ukraine would be flattened in 2 days and the whole area would be like Chernobyl, where nearly 40 years after, life is yet to return.
Incidentally, Chernobyl is in Ukraine. It should remind them of what lies ahead if Putin decides to go all in.
Forgive and forget. It might be hunger that caused it. So sad that even the fish cooked no seasoning or spices was put inside. but make thorough investigation to know iif he voted for the dullard in Aso rock now , if actually he did voted for the drunk, please don't forgive him, treat him exactly as a thief.
This is how you people in Nigeria continue to support thieves everywhere. In government, in civil service, in businesses...
We did a 2-bedroom in 2022 and the foundation cost N3.4m. But this relative as your structural engineer will need to do some evaluations for you (type of soil, its topography, number of people that will traverse the building per time, etc).
Chinjo2: This is what Churches should be doing. They should go into agriculture and manufacturing to generate employment for it's member. They should stop relying on tithes and offerings.
One of my ogas built his house using blocks and interlocking stones made by MFM's factory.
When I see comments like this, I realize that too many Nigerians wallow in deep, apex-level ignorance.
Kajaard: If this news is true and if Nigeria and Finland have an extradition treaty in place, then he will surely be extradited to Nigeria for terrorism and jailed in our prisons
There is a process. Finland respects rule of law and will follow judicial processes to the letter. They are not a shithole third world nation.
Vinnie2000: An Clothing Organization that sells Baggy Jeans, (One for N20000), Increased price to N35000, due to the Harsh Economic situation of the Tinibu Govt.
Most Clients complained but later Adjusted when the company explained things with them.
Now a Dubious Client still wanted to buy 1 Jean @the N20000 Old Price and gave the amount to a Staff (Who is her Family friend) to pay and Hoodwink the secretary to write Receipt for her.
The Staff agreed in this Plan and Tried to carry it out but FAILED.
So Question is, What is the appropriate Punishment for the Staff? *SACK? *SUSPENSION? *Or QUERY?
The dubious client = staff.
There is no other dubious client here. I think you changed the story to cover up something. Maybe you are even the one involved....but I stand corrected.
ItsTutsi: Nigerian men or men in general are getting weaker, I just don’t understand! Is the food cooked by their wives laced with some concoction that make them loose their mind and senses
Some retirees are not even up to Seventy years. Even at that, are you predicting no retiree will live beyond 85?
Learn to read. PTAD was set up to handle retirement matters of those who left service before 2004 when the new contributory pension scheme was created. It is already 20 years. If you left service at 60 years in 2003, you should be 81 year now. Only God's grace will still keep you until you are 96 years in fifteen years time.
As at then, PENCOM would be the agency handling retirement matters. What would be the role of PTAD in 15 years time when the pre-2004 retirees are all dead?
ednut1: The boys look well fed. Scrap business also pays. This topic no follow . It is even illegal to make a post with their pictures without their consent. Why is nairaland allowing this? Rule No 10
Don't mind the OP. He does not know the hidden wealth in scrap business.
Melagros: COMRADES, I am creating this post in response to a thread created yesterday by a fellow Nairalander that; when he's married his living condition will be better! That he is tired of living in abject poverty! (I'll be very happy if the mods can attach that link to this post)
I went to see a friend today, unfortunately, when I called her, she told me that she was not around, then I decided to stroll back home; on my way home, lo and behold! This is what I saw! A family of four: 'papa, mama, senior pikin, and junior pikin' carrying dirty sack bags on their heads, immediately, my curiosity was aroused! Then I said let me trail these guys and see what they were carrying, and where they were going! After trailing them for a long distance/ journey, then I discovered that they were scavengers! In awe, and disbelief, I'd exclaimed and asked myself!...a whole family scavenging in order to survive?
FIRST PHOTO; is the last kid, age between 9-10 years old
SECOND PHOTO; is the first son age between 11-12 years old, he was the first to arrive at the selling point, you can see that he is sorting the garbage/ market
THIRD PICTURE; their father walking barefooted, when you look at the photo of the father, you'll see that from afar there is a little school boy also staring at the father and the last child, a mild drama was played out at that moment, the mother of the little boy and his sisters had already boarded an autorigshow (keke) but the little boy has refused to follow them in, he stood outside staring at the scavengers...only God knows what was in the mind of that child
LAST PHOTO; when we all arrived at the selling point, then I looked at the other direction, there, I saw their mother coming to join them; I tried to know about the transaction, then the buyer (a Hausa guy) approached me (because I looked suspicious) and asked me, 'hope it is OK', I replied him in Hausa, 'yes it is'...I lost my way, then I left them there!
My advice to every single person/bachelor out there is that; things are not longer getting better in this country, always get yourself prepared before getting a woman pregnant or married, don't allow anyone to push you into unprepared marriage and thereafter remained unarranged and scattered for the rest of your life! Thank you all
LOCATION IS PORT HARCOURT, THE CAPITAL OF RIVERS STATE. NIGERIA THE GIANT OF AFRICA!
MODIFIED: those of you quoting me that I am jobless...as a trained journalist, this is how we carry out investigative journalism
This journalist...you are highly uninformed.
Come to the garbage sorting point in Nyanya, Abuja. Those boys that do this job live in that filth from Monday to Friday. Friday evening, they take very elongated, proper baths to clean off all the dirt, then they change into their lovely clothes and head home to their families with the week's takings.
When the price of copper went sky-high, some of these guys made crazy money selling stripped copper wires to Chinese buyers. If dem no tell you, you no go know. Come to the area close to one of my shops along Abuja-Keffi road and see how trucks come to pack sorted cans of coke, fanta, and beers. I mean, hundreds of sacks in 10-ton trucks.
Dey play.
Some of those guys you see selling dollars everywhere, that's how they started. From scavenging, to selling pure water, to doing mai shai, or shoe mending, and from there to become apprentice to one Alhaji selling foreign currencies, to become a currency dealer themselves. They will have 10 children, and maybe send 2 to school. One will enter university, come out, and become a civil servant, en route to becoming a director in a government MDA. The other will join NDA, or go to the flying school in Zaria and become a pilot for civil aviation or join the air force. The rest will continue the cycle, or become farmers. When it is time for election, they will show you the power they have in numbers.
Go find out how many southern pilots are in the airforce. Or how many are in the presidential fleet. Find out the ratio of northerners to southerners in the armed forces. You will be dazed. You go dey from far dey mock them.
It is a closed industry they have kept within themselves. You wey be southerner go dey mock dem...but they know better. Today if they say you cannot be president, they have the numbers to do the job, and the appropriate people in the appropriate places to do the hatchet job if needed.
CaveAdullam: What the good, wise, or intelligent fails to understand is that they can't dominate without leveraging the tools of dominance: power, force, control, luxury, and wealth.
These tools are necessary to have a sustainable and peaceful human co-existence. The problem is they normally view them as immoral, or a course not worthy enough. Yet they suffer the consequences when dumb and vicious men leverage the tools for their selfishness.
As pure and holy Christ Jesus is, he is still going to send people to hell fire, to gnash their teeth and burn in agony. If not for that side of his power, nobody would have given a damn about "believe in the Lord Jesus as your Lord and personal savior". (I hope the reader gets the allegory).
Even Moses asked God for power before going to Pharaoh. Evil men will only bow down when you leverage their tool against them. And we saw that in the ten plagues.
It comes down to the greater good.
You can't survive the Earth without crude force and leverage. The world is cold and cruel. You must protect your innocence and dignity with an armour. Fighting is part of the game. But the good man is like a good shepherd - he protects the sheep and destroy wolves.
Utopia is impossible on Earth. However, the good, wise, and intelligent must approach living on planet earth like Moses with his encounter with Pharaoh. They must be dangerous as Pharaoh to rescue the masses from his bondage and oppression.
Sonnobax15: Good day my fellow Nairalanders......Hope y'all are having a nice day + flexing on the harmattan season that's already gotten it's aroma allover the place?
So, recently,I was added to my primary school WhatsApp group......It's been over 20 years since we left primary school and it was indeed a good time to have a flashback of the memories of how and who we used to be back then as kids,under the same roof of the same classroom as classmates....
The reason for the reunion came about as a result of the fact that one of our classmates was about getting married....It was indeed a fun-filled moment as we were already vibing and reminiscing on our past
Suddenly,I began to notice how some guys were showcasing and boasting about how they have made it in life.....Some were even posting pictures of their expensive cars and beautiful houses....I was really happy for them,at least for seeing those whom I grew up with making it to the top...It actually gave me joy as I hoped to make it like them someday too
But then again,what really killed my joy was when one of them started to call out the names of those who used to take from the first to third positions in class ...The annoying part was that he sent it via voice note and was like mocking us about not being successful yet like those of them who were considered as the dullards back then in school.....I felt really pissed off😡. The fun was brutally murdered instantly and I began to notice how many people started to exit the group one after the other 😔. I wasn't left out cuz I also made sure I dusted my shoes and left too before they would post the pictures of me riding my keke ...what was supposed to bring us together only ended up disintegrating us further and made us felt like we were losers . As a matter of fact, I've vowed never to be a member of any WhatsApp group from henceforth . Cuz it seems these guys are only out to add more pains to people's depression
Have anyone experienced this kind of scenario before?
Some people are just too childish in their behaviours, and that is why I have refused to join any Whatsapp groups of my primary, secondary or university classmates. I am only close to very few of them. The rest are relics of my past and should be treated that way.
You see what that fellow was doing calling out people? That is a sign of a deep-seated inferiority complex which he cannot shake off ever in his life.
jesusjnr2020: Was David Abioye Spiritual Prowess Being Stifiled Under Oyedepo All These Years?
Despite hearing the name David Abioye for several decades, (which wasn't unusual being the second in command to David Oyedepo founder and GO of winners chapel), it was only recently after his forced retirement from the church, that I got to know what he looked like and also what he sounded like, and I must confess that in the few times I have heard him speaking, I have already been impressed with his level of spiritual depth and understanding.
It's profoundly strange that this was someone that was serving under David Oyedepo for so many years, yet I have never felt the same way about David Oyedepo despite hearing him preach countless times, including when I was still a member of CGM, and attended several annual conventions when he was invited as a guest speaker.
Even while I was yet a sinner and wasn't as spiritually discerning as I am now, but could still discern spiritually deep preaching and teachings from those which were shallow, I have never been impressed with Oyedepo's preaching or teaching, how much more after I have not only got saved but also born-again and begun to walk at the highest level of spiritual walk where it was all about God?
Yet I heard David Abioye speaking only a few occasions and was wondering if he was really the same person that was with Oyedepo all these years or if it was someone else.
It was indeed baffling and made me wonder if David Abioye's spiritual prowess and impact wasn't stifled all these years, and if it wouldn't have been much more beneficiary to God's Kingdom had he parted ways with the church much earlier, especially considering the way his loyalty and service to Oyedepo was being rewarded with retirement when he still had so much more to offer in the work of the kingdom.
He also appears to be thinking along these lines considering that he has already launched his own ministry shortly afterwards, so could it a case of waiting too long before doing the needful?
It's better late than never though, at least the world can finally get to hear and partake of the spiritual riches that David Abioye has got to offer without any more hinges.
God bless.
Bishop Abioye has not started his own ministry please. That is fake news. Anything anyone says as a spinoff of this story, has no foundation. None totally.
That said, understand that men of God are only vessels that ultimately transmit God's Word to us. Not every man of God is called to be your pastor, even within the same church.
As for your talk of being stifled, you forget that Joshua only emerged when Moses was gone, and no one heard of Elisha until Elijah was taken. No ship can have two captains, and no company can have two CEOs. No country can have two presidents.
Those girls played like their lives depended on it.
Also, I have to give special kudos to goalkeeper Omini Oyono. Her ball handling skills and judgement have improved dramatically from her U-17 outing two years ago. It shows she has spectacular goalkeeper trainers in the team.
Please the new Edo government should continue doing what Obaseki and Shuaibu did in the area of sports, especially the way they revitalized Bendel Insurance and Edo Queens.
pelusi: I traveled outside the country for 8 months now while my family is in Nigeria.
Now I will be returning to Nigeria next week. For this 7 months, I kept myself and did not mess around(slept) with any woman.
However, it's not that I don't trust my wife, but atimes I have an instincts that she may not hold herself like I did and may have fallen in hands of men.
Where I come from, it's an abomination for any married woman to sleep with another man because of the dare consequences it has on the husband of the adulterous woman.
Now I'm coming back soonest,I'm scared if she has slept with another man and I was suggesting before sleeping with her to sit her down and ask her to sincerely tell me if she has fallen in my absence,so that necessary things(cleansing) can be done before I sleep with her.
On the other hand, I'm reasoning whether asking her such will cause a misunderstanding in the marriage.
Please advise on the best way to go about this.
If that is how you think, she also has even more right to ask you if you slept with another woman while you were away. In fact, she should even ask you to prove that you did not. Maybe you should also ask your mother if your father was the one that birthed you. Nonsense!
Keep living your life according to what you see and hear on social media. When you use your own mouth to scatter your marriage, we will see if the social media people will come to your aid.
There is just a level of irresponsibility that has crept into a lot of people.

He has the means to pay, and by law if he decides to rent it out, the rent > mortgage.
OAKSFIVEFARMS: Some other airports use Falcons to chase birds away in regions where this happens more often, I’d never heard of a bird strike in Nigeria. Maybe I’m not all that informed
