We will still disgrace the Olosho. This vagabond file na leader of the opposition ooooo, she no be PM or anything other than she dey represent her constituency in the Parliament, yet the Olosho thinks she is next to God. We will still pull the rug under her feet and strip her nakked at the market square, just watch as e dey go

.

To what gain if I may ask? I see no economic value to fighting her, if our leaders could look inwards and do the right thing, people like Kemi will be coming around to identify with the government. Imagine seeing your rich uncle’s children begging for loans, using the loans to buy cars and jet and expecting you to be a guarantor for the next loan. Let’s leave Kemi alone, she is least of our problems.

Chai, Abia and 1 chance government. Airport should be the list of worries to Abia state. You have Owerri, Enugu, Portharcourt and Akers Ivom Airports all surrounding you, what is wrong with power?

Ex-Gov and a Cashivist

There's classism everywhere in the world and this has nothing to do with Nigeria

In the end, they were made to sit out their cases in court. No one is above the law and that should be the bottom line of your nonsense comparison

Your village people are very proud of you.

Goodnewsforlife:
the country is retrogressing because a man made an allegation n he was asked to prove it?

.

How will he prove it from prison? You know you are not the strongest or the most influential in your community, a day will come when you be in prison to prove your name.

Good, the country is retrogressing and the youths both paid and unpaid seems not to realise it. It is a sure bet that Nigeria will be this way for the next 20 years without any progress as a nation. Just recycling our politicians and problems.

This means a foreign military base is a about to be positioned in the North, closer to Niger.

Was the law followed in his arrest and subsequent imprisonment?? Make these Elders allow us to face our challenges in peace.

When the Government just got a Eurobond loan. Looks like we are the most set of gullible set of individuals.

OneCandleAway:
.that's not a nice thing to say

.

We get away with a lot of things. Things like this gets one a jail time and a trip to sex offenders list.

IFECHIGCON:
Apc will still lose come 2027

My brother with the level of hunger in the land, I doubt they will lose, I am predicting a landslide for APC by 2027.

Orange shame dey catch me.

Because he wasn’t served refreshment.

Markets are blessings to the community where they are, they generate revenue and also means of employment. Any government that understands this and support it, will maximise the potential of the said market to its advantage.

You guys sell farm lands to pay bride price? That's insanity. Bride prize is meant to be symbolic and hence just a token. The other wedding expenses should be cost of entertainment and the wedding proper. Now in most societies cost of entertaining guests is borne by the brides family. That's because its the brides family that is receiving and entertaining guests. The bridegroom, family and friends come to the bride's family to ask for her hand in marriage. I can understand if the brides family is dirt poor and the bridegroom decides to help in entertaining guests, but I have never understood the culture of the bridegroom not only paying to entertaining his own family and friends in his bride's house, but also to entertaining the whole village.

Like I suggested, if you feel you are been extorted, please live the lady alone and marry from families u are comfortable with the ways. Don degenerate people’s way of life because you have a false feeling that yours is superior.

JIBO4REAL:
Basically If the girl was to marry from the same village Eg like one of those elders family leaving in the village will it still be 3.5m ? 😂 😂 😂

Some of the guys in the village may be petty farmer who can't barely avoid daily meal.... But see them, they will be calling the man poor 😂

. It doesn’t work that way, when those villagers about to get married, they give what they have, sale crops, bring goats, sale farm lands. Bride price is not static, you negotiate, come to a compromise. Like I said earlier, bride price is test. How u go through shows your character.

dominique:
Look at what people are defending egbami🙆🏽
So there are no ways the family can use to determine if the groom is financially capable other than imposing this heavy billing on him? The family and culture are greedy, let's call a spade a spade

The marriage list was there before he met the lady, if you marry a lady from my part of the world, you are married not only to her but to her family and kins. In the old days, they are certain privileges that are accorded to Inlaws even till today. The family didn’t manufacture that list, so if the young man feels he can’t do it, let him leave the young girl alone. The wahala in marriage is over bride price x100, so if bride price is a problem, certainly their future is bleak.

Hmm, the person lives in the UK, if he can’t pay a marriage list of <£2k, he should please live the girl alone. People forget what the culture about bride price is really all about. It is a litmus test, it will test how deep your pocket is, and your negotiation skills. It will test if you are matured enough to handle challenges that consigns your potential wife and family. Apparently if the lady has a problem or a need of £2k , the husband may send her back to her family for help. I like what happened, if the man thinks he is being extorted , let him live the lady alone. Is better to discontinue at this stage than later, we will all be ok.

, Nigeria is undergoing the worst form of self sabotage from the presidency.

saintopus:
My question is why is it that since Dangote Refinery started producing why is the naira keep falling even though we were told that 40% of our FX is used for importing petrol.

The more you look, the less you see

Make Believe and reality. They will come up with another story, they may blame importers or car owners next.

eepeepook:
I said before that she looks the same. She confirmed it. On a regular day, she looks like Zelda from Terrahawks. Google the name because I'm yet to learn how to post images here past straight from a device. Nairaland needs an upgrade. The guy who owns it cannot do so.

.

Terrahawks! You suppose be grand Pa now. 😆

What everyone that understands a bit about risk and its accessment have been saying. Wait until vehicles start exploding before you face reality.

Them go soon rubbish am.

Thoughts, if Peter Obi were to be my friend on personnel terms, my advice to him will be simple. If you run in 2027, you have my vote and resources for it, but as my friend, who has conquered poverty, greed and common sense, I will tell him to move his businesses abroad and watch Nigerians wallow in their stupidity.
The person that opened this thread is foolish and mischievous, there is no flight of 70k in your country, people can't even buy the basic necessity, but your problem is an ordinary citizen like you not those you "voted" into power.
With the attention Peter Obi gets, it is evident that he actually won the 2023 elections.

How can someone be a "politician" all his life. He hasn't had a job or business all his life. The only thing in his CV is just politics. It beats me to understand.

Hmm CNG want to start competing with his peers too?

rentAcock:
Wrong move. FG should get rid of dual citizenship. You cannot become a citizen of America, England or wherever and still maintain your Nigerian citizenship. If the U.S goes to war with Nigeria or another ECOWAS country, those folks abroad would have to fight for the U.S against their own brothers. So get rid of that.

Close all Nigerian embassies and consulates abroad. Anyone who needs Nigerian passport renewal should be allowed to fly to Nigeria to get it done.

Every Nigerian based abroad should be made to remit 10% of their income as tax for the Nigerian government.

We need to to do everything in our power to stop people from traveling abroad otherwise we will have no country. If everyone runs abroad, who will fix the country? High time government does something drastic before it's too late.

Oh Lord I pray this fellow receives a testimony soon. Let him experience the joy that comes from being loved, earning good income and living in a society where the rule of law is non negotiable. Amen

Philistine:
The only thing Yorubas know is IGR IGR IGR....they are less concerned about the lack of basic infastructures in Yorubaland compared to other regions, many communities have never seen Toilet in Yorubaland, no portable water, communities are littered with mud houses etc Yet they are on social media bragging about Igr. what a shame.

.

Bros calm down and look at the data with an open mind, that's a lot that calls for a sober reflection in the east. I understand that IGR is not a measure of development but how can only the governors office eating 200% of the IGR, this can never be right. You generate 100k chop 200k only fir Governors office. Habamana.

Tinubu2027Agend:
It is unfortunate when we have bunch of illiterates parading themselves online and constituting nuisances just because they have 5MB of data.

How did we get here that we will have youths that cannot read for themselves

Where in Cardoso speech did he mention Emefiele

Our lazy youths have turned themselves into headline readers (headlines that were written by equally lazy and mischievous youths, online warriors).

This is sad. However, it is expected, since the election loss, some people have thrown their medulla away and replaced it with hatred and bigotry. What a shame!!!

Anyways, Tinubu till 2031. ♾️

Anyone is free to call his chains golden bangle, if you have read as you claimed to, you will see no name was mentioned. I am lost as where u got your information from.

Lithiumite:
It's easier to buy 100mb data and criticise!! What do you know and what can you do?

.

100mb? If only your ears will be open, don't worry, is 14more years according to IMF, ride on.

Turboking:
O Seti go

I told someone that they will never be peace in Rivers state. If they is peace in Wike or Fubura's camp that means there is no natural incentive to do good. It means evil and mischief is more rewarding than doing the right thing. The two of them will bruise eachother, by 2027, a nautral party show be strategists on take over because the fight is far from over.

UnitedKingdom:
T-Pain I'm not impressed. I need the Naira to hit £1 to N3k by December. I'll be so happy because I have a project to execute before 15th December.

Don't you realise that the cost of your project in Naira will almost be going up? Nigeria economy as it is favours no Nigerian expect the politicians.

EmeeNaka:
When did CBN governors start talking about their predecessors?

Since BAT came on board, BAT and his crew, always speaking without thinking, running around like headless chicken. They only thing they understand is looting and squandering borrowed funds.
