Agriculture › Re: What My Neighbor said When she Saw These Crops I Sack Planted. by TEYA: 6:21pm On May 10 |
Caaz: 10days ago I sack planted 40 sacks of yam seedling on top a sewage pit....the job was very tedious and actually I fell under the weather.
Only for this my rose the nosy neighbor to corner me and asked me to take them of that the weight of the sands are going to sink the sewage pit.
I rejected her verdict.because it was recently plastered by me for this sole purpose.
She sad because she did same and hers collapsed .i told her that mine is entirely different.thanked her then walked away.
Interesting to chip in that...this same nosy neighbor has this penchant for finishing all my veggies for free.
I really want to know if the sewage is really going to collapse due to the fact that it's raining season. Did you use reinforced concrete beams and columns for the soak away pit? Is the slab reinforced and the concrete top rich? If yes, don't fear, nothing will happen |

Politics › Re: Imagine if Plateau’s Illegal Arms Factories Belonged To Fulani Militias by TEYA: 11:41am On May 09 |
Indabello: OPINION: If Plateau’s Illegal Arms Factories Belonged to Fulani Militias, the World Would Be Burning
The discovery of another illegal arms factory in Plateau State should have shaken the conscience of the nation. But it did not. Not because the development was insignificant, but because it did not fit the preferred narrative carefully marketed for years by crisis merchants, foreign lobbyists, and politically interested actors feeding off the Plateau conflict.
Imagine for a moment if troops had uncovered three illegal arms factories operated by Fulani militias in their harmlet in Plateau within three weeks. Imagine if security forces had recovered fabricated AK-47 rifles, welding machines, recoiling springs, ammunition shells and weapon components from settlements associated with Fulani groups. By now, international media would be flooded with headlines screaming “genocide.” Foreign NGOs would issue emergency alerts. U.S. lawmakers would hold hearings. Social media activists would demand sanctions on Nigeria. Naked women and youths would occupy streets in Jos. Protesters would occupy the streets of Abuja, Washington and London. Religious organisations would organise prayer marches and global petitions. Every recovered rifle would become proof of an alleged grand conspiracy to wipe out Christians.
But reality can be inconvenient. Troops of Operation Enduring Peace (OPEP) raided illegal arms manufacturing sites in Vom, Jos South LGA, and arrested five suspects linked to Berom militia networks. Recovered from the factories were fabricated AK-47 rifles, weapon skeletons, revolver components, magazines, welding machines and industrial tools used for weapon production. This was not a rumour. This was not social media speculation. These were physical weapons recovered by troops during a live operation.
Yet the silence has been deafening. No outrage from the usual activists. No emergency press conferences. No sermons condemning the proliferation of illegal arms within Plateau communities. No viral hashtags. No candlelight protests. No foreign NGO reports warning about ethnic militias manufacturing weapons. The same voices that quickly amplify every allegation against Fulani groups suddenly developed selective blindness.
This is the uncomfortable truth many do not want discussed openly: Plateau’s crisis is no longer a simplistic black-and-white story of innocent victims versus faceless attackers. Armed militias exist on multiple sides of the conflict. Weapons are being manufactured locally. Revenge attacks are organised. Narratives are weaponised. Communities arm themselves while simultaneously presenting themselves exclusively as helpless victims before the national and international audience.
And that is exactly why the crisis has persisted for decades. The dangerous part is not merely the weapons themselves. The dangerous part is the ecosystem protecting the narrative. An ecosystem where facts are filtered through ethnicity and religion before they are accepted. An ecosystem where the deaths of some victims generate global outrage while the deaths of others barely earn a mention. An ecosystem where propaganda travels faster than truth.
Over the past months, security operations in Plateau have exposed repeated evidence of armed local militias, reprisal cells, illegal weapon possession, and coordinated attacks hidden beneath carefully crafted emotional narratives. Troops have recovered weapons from local youths. Active shooters were seen in viral videos previously circulated as evidence of “attacks.” Security personnel have repeatedly intervened to stop reprisals between communities. Yet these realities rarely make international reports because they complicate the preferred storyline.
Even more troubling is the growing industry around Plateau’s conflict. Some foreign advocacy groups and political actors appear more interested in preserving the image of endless persecution than supporting genuine reconciliation. Fear sells. Victimhood attracts funding. Outrage generates influence. Nuanced truth does not.
This does not excuse criminality from any group. Fulani militias have carried out deadly attacks. Civilians across ethnic and religious lines have suffered enormously. But honesty demands acknowledging that armed violence in Plateau has evolved into a multidimensional conflict involving reprisals, militia mobilisation, illegal arms proliferation, criminal opportunism and deep-rooted communal distrust.
Peace cannot emerge where truth is rationed.
The discovery of three illegal arms factories in three weeks should force difficult conversations. Who is funding these operations? Who supplies the materials? Who protects the operators? How many more exist across the state? And why do some community leaders remain silent whenever these discoveries contradict the narrative they have spent years exporting abroad?
Until Plateau confronts all armed actors equally without ethnic favoritism, religious sentiment, or propaganda, the killings will continue, the reprisals will continue, and the ordinary people caught in the middle will continue paying the price.
https://emergencydigest.com/2026/05/08/opinion-plateau-illegal-arms/ Yours is a very silly post. The only reason why anyone else will aspire to make weapons is to protect themselves from Fulani terrorist. |

The kids actually did not do well... It isn't as if I am not happy with what the man in the story did o, I just feel some things didn't add up. I know a man that was frustrated by his kids, he was moving about begging people for assistance when the house he bought in a government quarters was worth over #60m! He later died frustrated.

The issue of unemployable of our youths is encompassing and cumbersome to discuss...Even when some class may want to dispute it, we cant shy away from the eroding situation of our productiveness aided by alot of factors, ranging from high poverty rate, lack of jobs opportunities over the years that had caused lack of concentration of students on education even while at schools- they go to schools for just the certificates and miracle centres, poor work remuneration and extortion by the employers(this also has a diverse discourse] social media effects, social media monetization, soft life mantra, easy money mongering and above all, our attitude as a nation towards everything.

13. No matter how beautiful you are as a woman, at some point, your husband will stop being sexually moved by your beauty, it is the friendship, the bond, the battles won together, the kids, and your good character that will keep him attracted to you.
14. A man that loves you can still cheat on you with another woman, this is one aspect of men that even men cannot explain, so don't destroy your relationship or marriage just because your husband cheated on you  This one you posted os 10x more sensible than the original post. |

* Some mothers also don't love their children. We saw a thread here where a mother wanted to stab her daughter. If you meet a good woman she can love you more than the love your mother/grandmother has for you.

Foreign Affairs › Re: 'Fix Your Countries': Video That Has Sparked Ghana-SA Diplomatic Row - PICTURES by TEYA: 7:59pm On Apr 27 |
Lionessza6: There is a difference between an institutional culture and a hustle culture.
An institutional culture is where citizens build systems that force governments to work, enforce laws, protect infrastructure, and maintain accountability. People organise, vote strategically, challenge leadership, and demand service delivery. Over time, those systems create stability and opportunity inside a country.
A hustle culture, on the other hand, survives by moving toward wherever functioning systems already exist. It depends on host economies rather than building strong institutions at home. That kind of mobility is understandable...but it also means remaining dependent on the political and economic stability created elsewhere.
One culture produces leverage. The other operates at the mercy of whoever is hosting it.
Migration itself is not wrong. People move everywhere in the world. But when migration becomes the main economic strategy instead of institution-building at home, tensions are inevitable...especially in countries already facing unemployment, inequality, and infrastructure pressure.
Why are strong institutions not being built across the continent at the same pace as migration toward the few places where they already exist? Now that's the conversation people like you avoid everytime  Migration is not our main economic strategy in Nigeria. I promise you that if a tenth of the inhabitants of Lagos should migrate to south Africa, the country's citizens will not even have tears to shed. |

BESIDES THERE IS AN ESTABLISHED NUCLEAR FIRST STRIKE DOCTRINE AS WELL AS NUCLEAR RESPONSE PROCEDURE IN PLACE.
America's nuclear response is really not about the US president's wish or desire. There are rules of engagement from the very top to bottom.
Make una allow Trump abeg.
Imagine if Iran, Hezbollah, Hamas have nuclear bombs what do you think would happen.
Please drop all this defeatist leftist mindset. Hezbollah and Hamas are not countries so how can they have nuclear weapons? You think the nuclear weapons are knockouts? Russia and china have ot and they never killed anyone with it. Pakistan an Islamic country has it, who did they kill with it?

You want to compare someone who is there to impact their economy with someone who sold off everything to afford the next flight to SA and start a life of uncertainty?
You guys think if other African countries are working as SA is, other Africans will migrate in their large numbers to land of uncertainty?? Stop being silly. They all went there to pursue business interests and if the opportunities in their countries were superior why didn't they stay back too? Humans migrate, it is an activity that is as old as humanity. |
