Can a Nigerian hard-worker get rich from a 9 to 5 monthly salary without involving in runs?
I don't mean politics where the politicians allawees are higher than their salary.
I mean genuine salary earners who don't engage in illegal activities to make extra income at their workplaces?

yes

Seun:
Fellow Nairalanders,

Nairaland was down for two hours due to a minor miscommunication with our host that was related to copyright infringement.

It shouldn't have taken as long as 2 hours to restore Nairaland, but it took a while for us figure out exactly what to do because it hadn't happened before, and we also had to wait for our host's support team to restore us fully after taking the necessary steps.

We are sorry for this inconvenience.

We know that keeping Nairaland working is especially important in this terrifying political climate, and we take it very seriously. Nigerians need a platform that they can use to share their views freely with each other. We believe that Nairaland is that platform.

Best Regards,
Seun Osewa.

this is the best time to turn Nigeria Twitter... build us a app... Abeg!!!

I was cruising round town slowly with my car, before i knew it, a 2014 toyota highlander came screeching with high speed, almost scraping my fender...

If it was an old man I could have let it slide, but alas; it was a young guy with beards feeling funky...


Thankfully it was a clear and smooth road.

I put my cls in sports 2( it’s an airmatic), gassed down the throttle pedal, and i was on The guy was gasping for air. I flew pass him after he must have exhausted every power the toyota lowlander got.
He played catch up till we reached a traffic point.....
We were head to head together, and the only thing that stopped us was the red light. As soon as it turned green; we both hit the throttle, and as expected, my car was far gone before his could pick up enough power..
Toyota car users are the most uncouth set of airheads on the Highway, and I’m glad I taught that dunce a lesson.

Maybe he'd sell his car and get a 2008 c-300

Just maybe..

I attached a random highlander from Google to depict the car I was racing with...
Truly ; mercedes benz and others....

NaijirianKing:
This is tribalism at its height, how do we even know that Fulani did this?? There's been a wave of media accusing Fulani of all sorts of atrocities in order to make the Fulani public enemy number one.

Much of this propaganda comes from social media, however on the ground Fulani and their neighbors live in peace. Please enough with this type of journalism where the Fulani is the enemy of the state.

Communal clashes have been happening since time immemorial, and will continue into the future. If all the Fulani leave Nigeria communal clashes will still be happening. Let's be thoughtful in our words and actions and not already overheat the nation as we are at the brink.

Lastly, the Fulani are a just people and will not sit by while their ethnic image is ran through the mud unjustly, let's all learn to live in peace and unity, and stop all these hate speeches.

you are very stupid

When Will Twitter Ban Nnamdi Kanu's Hate Speech?


Hate Speech Monger - Nnamdi Kanu
https://247newsaroundtheworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/why-i-dont-heavily-criticise-boko-haram-nnamdi-kanu.jpg

This man posts all sorts of vitriolic, abusive, threatening messages against Nigeria and the Nigerian government, including highly tribalistic smears, and blood-curdling commands to his followers, to kill and maim innocent Nigerians, including law enforcement agents.

BUT NOT FOR ONE DAY have I heard that Twitter cautioned him, or warned him against such dangerous use of the platform.

And then the Nigerian president uses the same twitter to warn troublemakers of repercussions, and HE gets his posts deleted by twitter.

I mean, WHAT CLEARER CASE OF BIAS IS THERE THAN THAT?

If I were Buhari, I would do the EXACT SAME THING, and ban them from operating in the Nigerian space.

Oh sure, some people can use VPN, but research shows that most peeps won't bother if they have to go to that extent.

So WELL DONE Mr President.

backup your rant with proofs

thebosstrevor1:
The government today, suspended all operations of Twitter.

This is a good news because it pave the way for the regulations of social media in Nigeria.

For most of you that don't understand, with the twitter ban came also a new regulation( Over the top services like youtube, instagram, social media operations, blogs, forums in Nigeria must be licensed to operate in Nigeria).” if you want to operate any social media services, forums or blogs, you must get licensed, that means your hate speech on social media is over and that owners of social media platforms, blogs, newspapers and forums will be responsible for any hate speech on their platform.

What does it mean for Nairaland?

Nairaland is seen as one of the biggest forums in Nigeria, with the new regulations in place, nairaland will have to apply for a license from the NCC to operate or they will be knocked out from the Nigerian internet.

For some people who have seen the licensing document for social media companies and blogs in Nigeria, one of the guidelines talk about hate speech and misinformation disinformation, what it means is that Nairaland wont be entertaining many inter tribal wars, hate speech and talk about Nigeria's breakup on this forum or they will be fined or be censored.

If you think the government does not have the technology of censoring websites, think again, they have the telecommunications services in their pockets.

So in the coming days, there will be lot of changes on nairaland that is if the government is very serious with their recent policies, lot of articles inciting violence and hate on nairaland will be deleted and also articles supporting Secessionist groups like Ipob and odua or arewà nation will be deleted and the writers given lengthy bans.

What does it mean for blogs

Blogs will also have to get license to operate or they will be blocked, that also means that lot of blogs spreading FAKENEWS and unverified informations will be fined or blocked.

Enjoy your new law.

Google search in 2012. I say which kind site be this one wey people dey insult themselves like this?

that's why ur Monica is agentgoat abi?

Babtunz:
Here's a fun and an engaging question I'd like to ask all Nairalanders.

How did you learn about this platform the very first time?
Can you remember the very first time you visited this website?

Did you learn about it in an advert, a Facebook post, Twitter or someone referred you here?

I'm asking this because I can't forget how I learned about this platform.

To answer the question, I'd go first...

I came across this platform sometime between 2015 and 2016.
I was a secondary school finalist then, and the person I lived with happened to be an IT expert, he's always on his laptop and then I'd see him scrolling down a site with green text almost everyday. I was interested in knowing what's he's doing here and what really caught my eyes was the name of the site. NAIRALAND. What could this site be? I always wondered and I memorized the name from there. I think what helped is the name of the platform, what could he be doing on a site named NAIRALAND? I was particularly interested about the 'Naira' part because then I thought this platform teaches people how to make money (well, it does).

At that time I didn't have a phone of my own and I couldn't create an account, all I do was just borrow phones to view the site as a guest. I got my own phone after secondary school and since then, I've been an active member of this platform.

And jsyk, I am a silent reader of the Travel section (you probably know why, lol) it's one of my favorite parts of this place. Another favorite section of mine on this platform is the Programming section

The information and knowledge that I have gotten from this place is invaluable, and I'm grateful to the creator and management for their efforts.

From my observations, I think the management needs to work more on the marketing of this site, this platform isn't popular as it should be. This place should be the frontpage of most Nigerians ( is it Uraniums? ) on the internet.

I hope to see this site become really popular as much as I hope it would.

Woah, that's a lot...
Can you share your own story with us? How did you get here?

a friend refered me to read stories in 2012… I started as a guest.. but the funny thing is I couldn't find nor read any story.. I fell in love with the forum, questions, answers, jokes , banters, and some unique Monika here,... Nairaland has henceforth been an addiction, I had to create an account in 2014

How about this

NiceCeSi:
I didn't understand the twist or may be I did. Oga, disregard, in fact, throw 1999 constitution into thrash can and draft something new entirely. What is too hard to do there? What is today most important in the country? Violating a section of the rubbish 1999 constitution or restoring peace and order in the country? Like I said, may be I didn't understand the news well.

they are simply saying, they can't make new constitution cos the old constitution didn't capture rewriting on an entirely new constitution. Stupid people dosent realize that , that alone is a major bug in that obsolete constitution which validates it's scraping

MAY God punish OP... And to the Mod that deleted that thread; may you be scammed of your present and future possessions

It was Tuesday morning

Thankfully there was still light but the bulbs were turned off then my mom was clocking in the kitchen. When she came out she turned on the lobby light as she'd noticed something black move as she had the chance to identify it as a snake before it went into hiding.

Raised alarm as all the family marched to the living room leaving my dad and elder bro in the lobby searching for it.

I didn't care about the size cause If we couldn't get it then
...but to cut the long story short when I went outside to pee cause I was too scared to use the bathroom that was when my dad saw it.
