Small pikin
What do you know. So naive

You will even argue if I tell you there are DSS officers on nairaland

Continue calling your grandfather Pikin, no damn respect!

Difrent:
Will they come and tell you if they see the video?
Security matter no be wetin them dey talk anyhow , so that they are not telling you doesn't mean they are not acting. If you follow this guy's news , he only escaped by the whiskers when military bombed his house and has been in hiding these days writing epistles first to Buhari and also to Tinubu on how Ahmed Sani government drove them to banditry ....... He himself knows his days are numbered

Oga they will never see it!

Racoon:
Both the FG and Dangote are not coming clean with this refinery issue. Dangote wants to be monopolistic about the Nigerian downstream Petroleum industry while the FG wants the subsidy corruption cabal to continue to hold the Fort. What a country.

How does Dangote want to be monopolistic? What does that even mean?

OAFMods:
And Dangote that knows how to get monopoly to any industry he likes on Nigeria suddenly can not negotiate n get crude oil from same Nigeria to his refinery ?!

Were your country not a stupid country, he won't need to negotiate. That refinery has the capacity to cause a major disruption in the labour market of Nigeria, generating much tax forex and local production as against expensive importation. But what is the wicked country doing? It is trying to kill it.

Namaster:
Why is NOBODY talking about the price of potatoes?

Everybody is talking about the price of rice and beans. But the price of potatoes has gone OFF THE CHART!

2 medium-sized potatoes are sold for #500 in a major market around here. 3 VERY small ones go for #500 too.

It's crazy!

They are not even goodlooking potatoes, either.

What many people have failed to realise is that sweet potato is now used for fufu/Amala/tuwo. It has become the perfect replacement for maize, at least in many northern Nigerian communities. You can grow it without fertiliser unlike maize which will disgrace a farmer that fails to adequately apply fertiliser which is quite expensive at the moment.

EmeeNaka:
Their presence all over northern states is not much of a threat to the president. They're instead destroying their region. For the protest to succeed, they must lay siege on Abuja.

Continue deceiving yourself, like play like play na im dog dey take chop im mama!

Rich classless Nigerian elite carried his Nigerian wickedness to " the abroad". But just like very dark man will say, he will learn!

adebayo201:
Summoned the service chiefs for what?

To give update on why the numbers of protesters are increasing?

Square peg in a round hole meeting.

Lol it is simple why he summoned. It is to bribe the top brass of the military to avert a coup. Remember Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali have staged coups and are not dead. He knows it is not impossible for such to happen on Nigeria.

Ideyontop:
Exactly my thoughts , that company has done very badly and I won’t want to do business with such.

She was not running nor hiding, she even brought it to you for servicing? There’s a way to follow you customers and get them to pay. If the balance is 2 million it means you have even made profit already, it’s not as if the remaining balance is hurting your business.

On the other hand, Tonto pay them their balance please!

That is typical Nigerian wickedness manifesting through your fingers here. You think you can owe people and they shouldn't be bold enough to ask. The question is if you can afford #34m for advance payment for a car, why not the #2m balance? Or did she clean her account to pay? Very wicked people!

Bacteria8:
But truth be said...

Why didn't the Northerners protest like this during Buhari's 8 years of disaster ??

Because he's their son ??

It was ethnic and religious sentiment. But that asides my brother, Tilumbu's hunger regime is a brain resetter. For the first time in history, the northern masses are blasting their religious and traditional leaders. This protest may not birth the Nigeria of our dreams, but I think we are just a stone throw away from waking up from our slumber.

Obiedun:
If they can direct their energy towards reclaiming their land from invaders and protect their indigenes against killers as they are doing now they will not be where they are now. They are only good at drinking burukutu.

And what role does the government play in that you dolt!

judedwriter:
📖 Genesis 19 (BBE)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
⁴ But before they had gone to bed, the men of the town, all the men of Sodom, came round the house, young and old, from every part of the town;
⁵ And crying out to Lot, they said, Where are the men who came to your house this night? Send them out to us, so that we may take our pleasure with them.


Following God's instruction, both Abraham and his Nephew Lot traveled together as nomads out of Haran, into Egypt and out of Egypt into Bethel.

As a result of God's blessing, both Abraham's and Lot's livestock became too surplus for them both to live comfortably where they settled.

Abraham, despite being much older than Lot, allowed him to choose first any part of the vast land to move in. Lot choose the well watered part of the Jordan that was neighboring Sodom (and Gomorrah) and relocated with his family and livestock.

However in Sodom, Lot was deeply distressed (2 Peter 2:7) when he discovered that the Sodomites were terrible sinners particularly in the sin of homosexuality.

The word "sodomy" which refers to homosexuality, is a coinage of the sexual perversion that was practiced freely by the people of Sodom.

The depth of sexual perversion practiced by the Sodomites was so deplorable, that God finally decided their cup was full and to destroy the land with fire and brimstone.

In a show of great mercy, God delivered Lot, his wife (who later became a pillar of salt) and daughters from the land of Sodom before destroying it by raining fire and brimstone on its inhabitants.

Although God destroyed Sodom and it exists no more, Jesus said something about Sodom that is so very much applicable to our generation today:


📖 Matthew 11
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
²³ And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.
²⁴ But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.


Despite we living under the dispensation of grace and under the power and miracles of the Holy Spirit, never before has the sin of homosexuality (and lesbianism) been so widely practiced and embraced like this generation of ours.

The whole world 🌍 saw this evidently in the opening ceremony of the ongoing 2024 Paris Olympics, when the last supper of our Lord Jesus was portrayed by drag queens!

Infact, God would have to render a sincere apology to the people of Sodom if He doesn't judge the insane level of homosexuality that is going on in the world currently.

And concluding from the words of Jesus, the people of Sodom with all their depravity, would be spared harsher judgement from God before His white throne (Revelation 20:11-12) than this generation!


👉 An urgent call

God is calling all those involved in homosexual (or lesbian) relationships, to repent because the time is really short! ⏳

It doesn't really matter how much you have wallowed in sin, once you repent and forsake your evil ways, God will have mercy and give you a clean slate!

Abraham pleaded with God for the land of Sodom, and God said if there were but ten righteous people in the land, He would spare it but there was none! (Genesis 18:32)

God is also calling us to repent of all forms of sexual perversion that this generation has normalized through pornography. (oral, anal, fornication, masturbation, etc)

God hates all forms of sexual perversion and His wrath is revealed from heaven. (Romans 1:18)

You people's act of saying God is supposed to apologize to people is awkward and wrong. Desist from ot please, God has no business apologising to you or anyone else.

MadamVanessa:



But but but the fóolish agbadorians said that there won't be any protest in Lagos. These must have been the Igbos that arrived last night🤣🤣🤣🤣

They are still fasting and praying for Oro to come out, but we all know Oro is a coward that only intimidate cowards like him. If Oro comot, no be small beating him go chop!

9japride:
[color=#006600][/color]

A lot of people just need to be careful. One should try to involve a relative when staying alone.
Treat the relative well. Using nairaland for example, there are monikers that hate the Igbos so much. Those monikers are regular people in the society and just imagine having such people close to an Igbo person.
I blame politicians for creating an environment for hatred to thrive just because they want to win elections at all cost.
That's just my own view

You got the bolded wrong. Politicians did not create the atmosphere of hate, they only exploit an existing atmosphere of hate to their advantage. We have never been a united people, they only exploit our division.

Kingsmeal:
Shaking my head in disgust🤣

A very shameless family. I hope she planted weed too for the Drug dealer? F00ls oo

You know, sometimes it makes me laugh how incredibly stupid these people are. This foolish woman thinks we don't know how to plant ugu!

LocalStandard1:
Even Tony Elumelu has had a foundation for more than a decade now helping and uplifting the lives of not only Nigerians put all young Africans.

But even with the very common fact that the Nigerian government are outrightly responsible for helping Dangote finish his refinery, this man has never said thank you. He just keeps complaining and asking for more so he can build his "empire". His empire! At the expense of all of us.

A refinery that will never aid in the reduction of fuel prices, but more monopoly and channeling the wealth of the industry from benefiting many different people to just one person, him.

So it is marketers that will reduce price of petroleum for you?

HenryQuest:
All the people campaigning against the protest are rich and influential. They do not and cannot understand the predicament of the common Nigerian at this time. You can’t beat a child and expect the child not to cry.

If Tinubu who is in panic mode over the protest cannot fix the problem of the country what makes anyone think he can when he is not?

Two kids of one of the prominent northern politicians that recently spoke against the protest are my neighbours here in New York. They are chilling on a regular, flexing their father’s money but their father is back home cautioning the downtrodden against exercising their civic rights in the face of poverty and starvation. I just de laugh all the poor lads on this platform siding the government. I just de laugh una.

There’s no single indices to show that this government can fix anything! Absolutely none! It’s only in Nigeria that “things must get bad before they get better”. Don’t believe anybody that tells you that crap! If you can’t improve on things the way you met them, leave it all for another!

Not all are rich and influential, others are poor and stupid and guess what? They are not in the minority.

These people can detonate bombs in the midst of protesters and claim the protest was "infiltrated". There is no level, however low that these shameless people cannot descend to due to their paranoia.

Asonaijaaso:
All those people shouting Dangote refinery is going to make prices cheaper.

"He plans to sell at international rates, meaning government will buy it expensive from him and subsidized it for the citizens."

He is a 100% Businessman.
Dont let them drag you into their challenges.
These people dont care about us.

Oga, if not for anything, the fact that his refinery is bigger than the three useless national embarrassments you call refineries and is guaranteed to produce tons of jobs is enough reason for you and me to rally round Dangote and make his refinery work! Dangote is a business man, Dangote is a business man who said he is a business woman or child? Why is NNPC trying to destroy that refinery and perpetuate petrol importation?

siofra:
Like Nigerian men are any better. That's why South Africans hate you guys so much, that's why white women hold their purses tighter when you pass by and that's why other nations are restricting Nigerians from entering their country. All thanks to Nigerian goats men

Rubbish!

South African women love Nigerian men, so do European ladies too!

Throwback:
I hope those who think that legislators do not deserve a recess, are now happy that some work themselves to death?

He barely lived for 3days after the recess started.

May his soul rest in peace.

How did you arrive at the conclusion that his death is stress related?

DeLaRue:
So, Mr Tinubu used remote control or juju to cause the technical problems?

Where in the post did you see 'technical problems'? When will you be man enough to pull your head out of Tinubu's anus?

Wisdomkosi:
Source : https://politicsnigeria.com/dangote-end-of-the-road-for-a-monopolist-by-soji-adekunmbi/

With absolutely no remorse, I must say this is a very stupid take! I am not a Dangote fan and even when he was having squabbles with BUA, I took the side of BUA and yes, you may accuse Dangote of trying to kick BUA out of the cement business to enjoy a monopoly but how can you even bring the issue of monopoly into this issue of petroleum refining? Monopoly against who? Marketers? How many refineries do they have in Nigeria to regard themselves as competitors against Dangote? For the records, Dangote refinery, upon completion will have a refining capacity of 650,000 barrels a day., the 3 NNPC refineries have a combined capacity of 445,000 barrels a day and is not even operating at up to a quarter of that capacity today. Did the clown responsible for the silly post here even for a second consider what effect that will have on the Nigerian Job market? I mean does he care how many jobs the new refinery will create? How can these marketers even be considered as Dangote's competitors? Which sane country will destroy an indigenous refinery so as to give a competitive edge to importers of a product which can be produced from a raw material that can be locally sourced? Kai Nigeria? How can that be justified? Nigeria! the wicked mother that eats her babies!

90s
In 1980-82 you get a storey building (face me I face you) on a plot of land with that amount

The 1980s did not end in 82.

People were contented with the little they had and basically lived within their means

Unlike today,7 crates of coca cola products was enough for young working couple to organise their marriage ceremony. But this fare was in the 90s

@ tonicyril, Shagari increased the minimum wage to 120 naira

In the 80s not 90s

What a dumb thing to say! Scared of which R. Kelly treatment?

Do your homework girl, apply for scholarships abroad, there are tonnes of schools even in US that will take you in for PhD straight. Why Davido?
