Hello,

In the interest of shining a spotlight on the coding talents on Nairaland, we are conducting a series of challenges.

The first one is a 3D Ludo Game challenge. This requires you to use AI to help you create an enjoyable Ludo game in a single html file using three.js via CDN to display the game in 3D. The Ludo rules are up to you to decide but must be made clear to the users.

Steps:
Develop the game as specified (single html file) using git for source control.
Push the source code to a private github repo before the deadline.
After the deadline, make the github repo public and post it on this thread for assessment.
If you touch or make any change to the repo after the deadline, you'll be disqualified.

Tips:
Use a powerful AI Like Gemini 3 Pro (free on Google AI Studio and Google Antigravity) for planning.
You will be graded based on everything that makes your game superior to other entries.
Such as the unique features (very important), code quality, UI, and the sweetness of the game.

The prize for the best entry is N250,000. The runner-up gets: N125,000.
The deadline is 10:00am Nigerian time on Thursday, the 18th of December, 2025.

Good luck!
Seun (Founder, Nairaland)

Hope the process will be transparent

malali:
Why didn't he expose Emefiele ?

Because Emefiele was not hindering his business

malali:
Is he really a good business man or someone who thrives on government subsidies, concessions and forced monopoly ?

Sorry Sir
But are you aware NNPC owns 15% of the refinery.
Are you also aware Dangote in Nigeria's Largest tax payer
Do you know of the Dangote Foundation.
Are you saying Dangote should give government the refinery to manage so they can destroy it .
Dangote also built cement factories in Zambia and other African countries.
Would you rather be built the refinery in another country?
Lastly, Sir, what do you have against Dangote?

helinues:
Stick to the volunteers without making this look like a scam. You better remove the account details before the mods will ban you

Thanks done

helinues:
Donation? Hahaha do what you can with what you have and allow others to do theirs willingly without asking for donations

I also need volunteers too

Myrrhis:
Give what you can.

Let others do theirs in their own way.
In this day and age, everyone is being careful of being extorted.

Thank you

Hello everyone,

This Christmas season, I feel strongly led to put smiles on the faces of about 100 wonderful children at an orphanage here in Kaduna. My plan is to visit them with music, fun activities, warm sweaters for the harmattan, and a sensitization session that will add value to their lives.

We also hope to organize a small Christmas quiz competition, where the winner will receive a scholarship as a way of encouraging and rewarding excellence.

To make this vision a reality, our budget stands at ₦850,000.
So far, I have contributed ₦100,000 personally, and with the help of kind-hearted people, I have already raised ₦300,000 in donations. That means we are almost halfway there.

I’m humbly reaching out for your support whether in cash, materials, or volunteering your time. If you live in or around Kaduna and would love to join us or contribute in any way, please kindly drop a comment.

Let’s make this Christmas unforgettable for these children.
Every support counts. Every act of kindness matters.


Thank you and God bless you richly.

budaatum:
Show where you have done this before, or at least evidence you can please, for credibility.

And why is there no place to send donations to?


Its omission screams authenticity, funny enough.

I'm careful not dropping my account details unless asked for. But now that you mentioned it I will add it

We just recently finished a pad outreach for girls in one of the government schools. If you would like pictures

Toxicity Caution in the Tradomedicinal Use of Bitter Leaf (Vernonia amygdalina): A Critical Review

Stage : Awaiting gallery proof

Journal: Asian Journal of Pathogen Research

Slots available: 5

Cost : $10/249INR/#15000

Abstract
Vernonia amygdalina (bitter leaf) is extensively utilized in traditional medicine across Africa for treating various ailments, yet emerging toxicological evidence raises significant safety concerns. This review synthesizes current research on the toxicity profile of bitter leaf extracts, examining acute, sub-chronic, and organ-specific toxicities. Analysis of toxicological studies reveals dose-dependent hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and hematological alterations, with extract concentrations above 400 mg/kg demonstrating adverse effects. While aqueous extracts generally exhibit lower toxicity (LD50 >5000 mg/kg) compared to organic solvent extracts, prolonged use induces significant biochemical and histopathological changes. Heavy metal contamination in plants from industrial areas presents additional risks. Despite demonstrated hepatoprotective effects at therapeutic doses, the narrow margin between beneficial and toxic doses necessitates standardization of preparation methods and dosing regimens. This review emphasizes the critical need for evidence-based guidelines to ensure safe tradomedicinal application while preserving the therapeutic benefits of this valuable medicinal plant.
Keywords: Vernonia amygdalina, bitter leaf, toxicity, traditional medicine, hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, safety profile, phytotoxicity, dose-response, medicinal plant safety

Please how true is this. I can't find it on any of his handles

Why Is Posting Good News About Nigeria Now Seen as Being a Tinubu Supporter? 🤷🏾‍♂️🇳🇬

Honestly, this thing has been on my mind for a while. It feels like these days, once you post anything positive about Nigeria — a new project, a tech innovation, even a viral story about a Nigerian winning an international award — people immediately jump to conclusions:

> “You must be one of Tinubu’s online boys.”
“They paid you to post this.”
“Propaganda! Stop deceiving people.”



And I’m just like… wait, what? Since when did saying something good about your own country automatically mean you’re supporting the government? 😅

I get that the country is tough right now. Things are expensive, the economy is shaky, and a lot of people are frustrated. So when they see cheerful posts about progress, it can feel tone-deaf — like someone trying to spray perfume over a garbage dump. For many Nigerians, “good news” often sounds suspicious because they’ve seen it used as propaganda too many times. I totally understand that side.

But here’s the thing — not everyone posting good news has a political motive. Some people genuinely love this country. They post to remind us that not everything is broken, that there are still bright spots worth noticing. From young Nigerians building startups, to artists breaking global records, to individuals doing community work with little or no support — these stories matter too.

We can’t always drown in negativity. Constant bad news drains hope and makes people stop believing that change is even possible. Sometimes, sharing good news is just a way of saying, “Hey, despite everything, we’re still standing.” 🇳🇬

At the same time, those who criticize the government are not enemies of progress either. Many of them are the most patriotic people you’ll meet. They love Nigeria deeply — that’s why they’re angry. They want accountability. They want results. And they’re tired of hearing excuses while ordinary citizens suffer.

So you see, both sides — the hopeful ones who share positive news and the frustrated ones who speak up against bad leadership — actually want the same thing: a better Nigeria. They’re just expressing their patriotism in different ways.

The real problem isn’t that people are posting good or bad news; it’s that we’ve allowed politics to divide how we interpret everything. If you complain, you’re labeled “Obidient.” If you praise something, you’re “Tinubu’s boy.” It’s exhausting. Not everything has to fit into a political box.

Maybe it’s time we learn to separate love for country from love for politicians. Because Nigeria is bigger than any political party. You can criticize the government and still love Nigeria. You can also share progress without being paid.

At the end of the day, whether you post good news or bad news, we’re all just Nigerians trying to make sense of the same struggle — and hoping for the same thing: that this country will rise again. 🇳🇬✊🏾

AIT Shuts Down Lagos Office After Months of Operational and Rumoured Salary Challenges

The Lagos office of Africa Independent Television (AIT) has been shut down following persistent financial and operational challenges faced by its parent company, Daar Communications Plc.

Sources confirmed that the management ordered the closure after months of struggling to sustain operations at the Lagos bureau due to high maintenance costs and dwindling revenue.

It was gathered that delayed salary payments and rising operational expenses had worsened the situation, making it difficult for the station to continue broadcasting effectively.

While AIT’s Lagos branch has been closed, sister stations RayPower FM and Faaji FM are reportedly still on air and continuing normal operations.

The development is seen as a major setback for AIT, one of Nigeria’s pioneering private television stations, which for years maintained a strong presence in Lagos as a key hub for national and international news production.

As of press time, Daar Communications Plc has not issued any official statement regarding the shutdown or future plans for the Lagos office.

Hello house,
I just need some advice abeg.

I recently got a teaching job this term — I’m in my early 20s and I teach Physics to SS2 students. I gave them an assignment on Gas Laws last week, and while marking, one of the girls wrote “masturbate” as her answer.

I was honestly speechless. I didn’t even know how to react. The school doesn’t allow flogging or any form of physical punishment, so I can’t just “discipline” her the old way.

I’m trying to maintain professionalism, but that answer really shocked me. I don’t know if she was joking, testing me, or if there’s something else behind it.

Should I call her aside to talk? Or report it to the principal or class teacher?
I don’t want to embarrass her, but I also don’t want to ignore it.

Teachers and educationists in the house, please, how would you handle this kind of situation?

Peter Obi Refers to Oba as Brother: Disrespectful or Not?

A congratulatory message from Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi to the new Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja, has triggered debate online about culture, respect, and politics.

On his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, Obi wrote:

> “I warmly congratulate my dear brother, Oba Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja, Arusa I, on his installation as the 44th Olubadan of Ibadanland. His ascension to this revered throne is a celebration for the people of Ibadan and a source of pride for the entire Yoruba nation and Nigeria as a whole.”



While many praised Obi’s warm words and emphasis on unity, the phrase “my dear brother” has divided opinions.

Some commentators argue that calling a first-class Yoruba monarch “brother” amounts to a breach of cultural etiquette. In Yoruba tradition, monarchs are regarded as sacred figures and custodians of heritage. According to this line of thought, equating the Olubadan with a political colleague risks trivialising the throne’s reverence.

Others, however, see no disrespect. They point out that Obi and Oba Ladoja share a long history of friendship and political collaboration dating back to their days as governors. To them, “brother” reflects personal closeness, not an attempt to diminish the monarch’s office. Supporters also note that Obi’s broader message was filled with respect, prayers, and admiration for the Olubadan.

The debate reveals a deeper tension: should public figures strictly follow cultural protocols in all settings, or can personal bonds and modern expressions coexist with tradition?

So, what do you think — was Peter Obi’s “my dear brother” a mark of humility and familiarity, or a subtle show of cultural insensitivity?

Is it possible to get a 1m 2 bedroom flat in ikeja or anywhere nice?

How can I contact Nollywood producers?. I have a script to sell

How can I contact Nollywood producers? I want to sell a script

northbird:
I was actually referring to Hausa.
That means you are bi-lingual ( your mother tongue and that of your resident location) , you are at a serious advantage. What's your discipline in school? Since you are a Web guy. I'm suprised you are still looking for a job. Anyways.. that's the first step I outlined below.

You don't need to borrow money again. If you want a salaried job based in Kaduna. You are going to import it from Lagos. It might take some
time, but it needs mental toughness, perseverance which you didn't display.. your first rejection and you sounded frustrated.
You need to be in high spirits, Padre. . You need to toughen up.

You need money to survive, the easiest job to get since your sciences are sharp, Your Mathematics must be very sharp, like Razor sharp to be considered. start as a Science teacher in a good private school..
Your target is Kaduna North. Time is of essence. . Already gave you a hint on one of the schools. I don't know whether you stay in Barnawa/Kaduna south. The big 8 schools in Kaduna North.

When that is settled, then I will give you the skills needed to ping a job from Lagos while resident in Kaduna.

How can I contact you sir

ufotunang:
.. there are online lucrative jobs you can do and earn money.. like digital marketing, content creator, affiliate marketing, CPA marketing, virtual assistant, online YouTube tutorial, writing for companies ( ghost writing) , YouTube influencer and many more lucrative online jobs... you can this and earn money and depend less on government jobs or be waiting for government jobs that can take years to come

I freelance too, but gigs are scarce nowadays

Krak:
You are living in the Northern part of Nigeria. Resident local language simply means Hausa or any language that the locals in Kaduna speak, not Yorubas.

I can communicate in hausa
