Biden will beat trump easily.

With all the crises Trump is facing plus a GOP party not fully behind him....forget it.

Even George bush is against trump. Don't even forget that the only strength trump had...the economy has been wiped off by the covid pandemic...

It's done and dusted.

This same Lagos government that scattered a drive thru movie experience in lekki yesterday? Hypocrisy of the highest order!!!!

Racoon:
A northerner sacked, another northerner appointed in acting capacity.Government of the north continues.
The pattern of appointment by the APC-led govt have set a precedence that will forever come back to hunt the north.

You are wise. They appointed Yuguda as SEC DG yesterday when Mary Utuk had been doing an excellent job in acting capacity

etrange:
I don't think so. Science is not about sentimentality but empirical evidence. You can't push a cure to the world based on "no harm in trying". This only make mockery of Africa and fighting for it based on emotional grounds is even more reason why the world won't take seriously in future. This could be the cure but let's advocate for due process.

As you can see, even the Europeans are now trying to play catch up by trying artemesin based solutions for the virus. They are now saying it could make people resistant to malaria....it definitely smells fishy and it seems they secretly know that the herbal drug is a cure...

It's not just marriage. Women are not good with power. Abuse is common for a lot of them cos it's an unusual position. Sad.

This shows the lockdown didnt really make impact. The numbers are even lower than some days during the lockdown

Silly. Why erect iron gates when some vehicles have a right to passage...essential vehicles.

Waste of money due to senselessness

Using corona as excuse to behave like an animal

Doctors are actually not making money aside the ones employed by govt. Truth is that most people are avoiding hospitals due to the virus thereby reducing income for them.

The major beneficiaries re telecoms and data providers. They re printing money now.

Closely followed are IT services providers.

Bill Gates...Gates of Hell shall not prevail...

I wrote something against Bill gates...Nairaland banned me...shocking to say the least. I wonder if there is more that meets the eye

alizma:
She should remain there until that her stupidity wash off her brain. I listened to her previous audio and I must commend the health minister, NCDC, and Benue state government for the attention they gave her.
A test was carried out which shows she was positive but she referred to the test as kangaroo test, the banue state government took her all the way from the state capotal to Abuja in an ambulance with a team of health workers. the minister gave her one on one audience despite his tight schedule and when she demanded for a copy of the test, it was made available to her, yet she didn't want to listen, all she wants is to be freed into the society. Two different doctors approached her for treatment, she turned them down claiming she doesn't have any symptom of COVID-19. Now she is talking about being abandoned and not given treatment. If she feels because she returned from outside the country that everyone should dance to her tune, she is joking.
She is just an old attention seeking woman. Why calling on idoma people, are they doctors? She should be calling on WHO to conduct a test on her rather than disturbing the peace of her people in the village

Don't mind her. She wants to use the case to get attention. The same woman refused treatment till doctors showed their I'd card...

Kobicove:
There is hardly any sector that was spared the adverse effects of Covid-19!

Banks, telecoms, IT company's are reporting triple times their usual income

leo047:
There is nothing wrong with Access Bank's decision.

We must realise that access bank is a business, not a charity.

That they donated billions is irrelevant. That's what almost anywise thinking business would do for the PR.

It boosts the business image.

The move is not justified and way too early.

First, banks experienced some sort of boom during the lockdown with most transactions going online and also getting a cut of bank based telecoms transactions like ussd. Again, post covid...oil prices will go back up albeit not to pre covid figures. Additionally a lot of investors will come to Africa being a region not mostly affected by the virus.

I think he just used the opportunity to set a justification to lay off the diamond bank staff he inherited.

If you don't believe me...watch out for their Q2 figures and year end figures...

This guy effectively said he has the final say on what the president reads...he has to sign off before the president reads it...wow!!!

Anyone who can beat someone to seat is devil herself...this is one a one action move like shooting a bullet...this is beating continuously till someone is dead...haba

Seun360:
Usyk lacks the punching power for the heavyweight division.

wasn't impressed with his heavyweight debut against a Lyft driver, Whiterspoon.

The jury will be out for him when he faces Derrick "WAR" Chisora.

Agreed on the chisora point. But he still beat the guy in the seventh round though. Don't forget the last match for fury, he won by decision.

The most dangerous for him is Usyk or maybe Dubois. I don't fear Fury for him that much. Joshua's CV is better than fury's and going in as an underdog is an advantage...but Usyk...that guy has the fastest hand combination currently and coupled with his hunger for a belt at the heavyweight makes him extremely tricky. He is a better version of Joshua in 2014-2016. Again, Joshua's confidence is shaky after his double header with Ruiz...I worry bout that match.

Pulev is also risky due to his size.

I think one of the sons wants to shoot his leg

opebiboy:
We are in deep sh*t. Expect millions of deaths in Africa. That's the reality soon to come

Millions from your family and village abi?

More...

Doyin Adebowale, aka High Priest, a former lecturer in UI and special adviser to on do state governor had a dirty fight on Facebook yesterday. It descended into vulgar exchanges as seen below

missimelda01:
True to an extent.

It still bothers me how a mother can reject a lady her son has spent time knowing, does it mean that she doesn't trust his judgement or something. Obi is gonna be a man someday and would need a mind of his own, women should know where to draw the line.

Becks she knows women more than the way a man will know a woman...

Same way I will know a man's behaviour than my daughter can ever know a man

ONNYX:
I hope this is only applies to only large establishments as many of the smaller ones cannot run this efficiently at least in this economy.

Finally, there is a clear cut distinction between theory and reality.

It doesn't look like you have any experience running a shoe string or hamstrung budget micro business.

I am part of a management team that just decided this. It's not everyone you throw words at.

Since the Chinese came...we have been having double digits...meanwhile whybis lagos breaking away from announcing nationally?

ThisisIkemefuna:
Most private business owners won't pay salary. By most I mean 90% of them. The hardship no be joke this year for Nigerians o

Not true.

Depends on your management.

A well run organisation can still pay and absorb a months salary despite no revenue.

After a month, they may start slashing or laying off.

I see a lot of people commenting that companies can't pay...but the company should be paying salaries from immediate income. Shows poor cash flow planning

I believe this is true.

Even documented scientific cases point to this. I think due to their heightened sense of sensitivity they get to see spirits...

In short, use yansh mask

Which kain eye talk be this?


Is the lockdown over? Yes or no?

whizqueen:
My friend sent me this thread last night but I had too much to say so here we go.

I (A Nigerian girl living in Canada) will be responding to the OP's points and some other comments I found on the thread.


Are Nigerian Ladies in Canada lonely? Ofcourse we are! Are Nigerian girls in NIGERIA lonely? Hell yeah!!! Are Nigerian girls in other countries lonely? Absolutely!!!!! Being lonely is not a factor of location or person. It's about not finding the right friends/partner you vibe with.


Why did we immigrate? Bros are you kidding me? Canadian govt is paying me $2000 monthly and other benefits for losing income due to covid-19 Is that happening in Naija right now? All the money donated by philanthropist in Nigeria would soon disappear into the thin air without our govt giving explanation of any sort. Ofcourse, it's not bed of roses abroad neither were we expecting a man wrapped in a gift bag but please don't let your sentiments cloud your reasoning as to why people make immigration decisions abeg.


I personally feel attacked I recently posted a video on my YouTube Channel about finding love & online dating in Canada. It's asif this hope saw my video and wanted to attack me


What makes you think we would be interested in you to begin with? Don't pride yourself too much plis dear


If you like let the OP influence your decision and stop you from chasing your immigration dreams, last last it's up to you to decide what you want for your future.


Whilst I would agree with growing together with your partner and building with them. I think it's just shallow minded of anyone in this age and time to ask for women to chase marriage first before career. Marriage is not the ultimate not everyone sees marriage as an achievement. These days, if you crave for sex so much, you can pay someone to do it or get yourself a Love Machine, if you want a child, you can literally just buy a sperm and save yourself lots of stress. Most of us are yet to keep an open mind to these things, however if you want something badly there;s always a way to get it.


Most Nigerian men hate to see it happen, there are laws that protect women here and they would prefer dying single than to see women as their equals. A good number of them are control freaks and would rather their woman be at their beck and call for everything as opposed to having their marriage work as a partnership. Nigerian married man knowing the laws of the land will still go ahead and cheat on his wife with a girl living in the same condo with his wife. Una no even dey fear or respect una madam. If atall you really want to cheat, you cannot travel to Nigeria and secretly mess with girls that fancy IJGB crew or allen avenue. As expected, some women do exploit the situation but if you find yourself a god-fearing person and you do the right thing, no divorce laws or child custody issue would stop y'all from flourishing.


White men dont find us attractive? Laughs is Swahili
On the contrary most men of other races have FETISH for Nigerian girls and Black girls in general. Maybe not long term in all cases tho but they reaaaaaaally fancy us and admire our enthusiasm towards life. Whilst most Nigerian girls would likely not wanna go for the likes of 'Ryan', 'Billy' and co it's not cos we don't find them attractive. Firstly, Naija guys are smart, intelligent and goal oriented. You see the average ones already have plans for their future and working towards it unlike the counterparts who are comfortable with just a high school degree. If a Naija guy is even into technical jobs he would try to be the best at it and work towards starting his own company in the near future. Secondly, coping with someone with a different culture, lifestyle, food, etc is honestly stressful. I was talking with one Persian guy and he said before we can kiss or hold hands, we have to be temporarily married. The other chinese guy is only about 5ft tall, I'm just wondering what he would look like in that department

In Nigeria, when you visit a guy at home, some would expect you to know that's express ticket to get laid with them. But here if you visit a guy at home, you can be almost certain that if you guys have sex it's cos you wanted it, no guy will try to lure or manipulate you to straff them or tell you when you came to my house what were you thinking. They know it's important to ask for your opinion or even avoid the whole situation altogether.

Something the OP failed to address is that the Loneliness spans across both men and women living in Diaspora. Even the white people find it hard getting a partner for themselves much less an immigrant that would probably take some time to fully settle in. The system is built to have everyone mind their business, that togetherness or family-spirit is missing.

All the naija guys and ladies in Toronto have finish dating themselves. It's such a small city, everyone knows eachother thru another person only a matter of time before you find out that; the guy toasting you is ex with your colleagues' friend. Or the guy you matched with on the dating app went on a date with your housemate the day before. Some would be married and they would be on the dating apps lying to other women.

Some of us don't even mind going back home to bring men here, but 'em guys just they find paper. Only few genuinely love and care for you. I kuku know people here already do that as business tho, some ladies/guys now charge up to $30,000 to marry people from home to help them get residency here.

There are tons of Nigerians in Canada groups on WhatsApp and Telegram some are just for singles and you find people of age 35, 40, etc filled with both women and MEN. Some guys eventually resort to going back home to marry the less exposed girls, but guess what happens once they reach YYZ airport? Oh well your guess is as good as mine. Their eyes go open finish.

A good number of Naija guys are single and desperately finding love as well as ladies. Truth is, we all crave for love. And that's not a bad thing to want. Finding a good match or significant other is a honestly a game of chance. Home and Abroad, White or Black race finding a partner is truly difficult and if you got lucky finding that one special person, you better love and cherish them truly.

I rest my case; I am in the comment section waiting for someone to jump on my mention and before you do so just remember: Opinions are like as5holes and everyone is entitled to one. So this is my opinion, I have free time today
