"precolonial" means prior to colonisation.
You meant "colonial".

DissTroy:
We look back on Nigeria in the colonial times and how it was better administered and the years after when all the colonialist had not left yet were our most prosperous as a country. Even on this thread and on the wider social media. Should I post examples across social media?

Don't our old uncles and aunties remind us of these things? Don't they remind you? Are they glorifying Colonialism?

Interestingly, the better administrated parts of South Africa and Zimbabwe are those controlled by... You know the words I'm about to type next.

You and I know why Bonny Island seemed, for years, better administrated and organized than many other parts were. At least parts of it.

Ibime:
Dr Umar is not a mainstreamed political figure. What's next Sheikh Gumi?

I can understand bringing in Mamdani since the loonartik has been mainstreamed by the far left and even got position, but Dr Umar has no political affiliation and couldn't care to vote. Dr Umar position is "fk all y'all" like Malcolm X.

DissTroy:
I can post several others who have made the same allusion but where never called out as apartheid supporters.

The media is too skewed.

Off the top of my head, I can mention the owners of the largest mainstream media corporations and the political leanings of their founders so there are platforms to avoid.


You can't want the real truth then base your world view on the reportage of Sky News, Fox News, The New York Post or from Ben Shapiro who shill for the Right.

Or want fair reporting from CNN, New York Times, Bloomberg News (this one contested against Trump and doesn't hide his hate), NPR and the likes.

It's just like I stopped reading Tech Crunch which used to be the biggest tech startup blog when they unraveled as anti-Elon Musk on everything; then we discovered they are owned by Yahoo! whose owns are DNC contributors.

Or watching CBS' The View and you think it's real political commentary.

If I don't read from actual sources and watch videos of them talking unedited, I don't believe it.

Avoid mainstream media. There are alternative sources of news which are always fact-checked.

DissTroy:
He didn't say so.

Don't allow CNN and NYT shape your worldview. You should know better.

It took me last than a minute to dig this up.

Elon responded to a quote saying, "America is headed there soon." https://x.com/elonmusk/status/2010262335672475835?s=20 I follow Elon so follow what really began what led to it.

It was Elon responding to a post condemning communism globally and how kleptomaniacs hide under equality to steal. Some use the term nationalism.

It's also to a broader issue where states like California mulling a bill to over-tax the ultra rich so much, about $1 trillion HNI have left the state.

It was also about issues where foreign properties are nationalized.

It happened in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Venezuela etc and we all know how that panned out. It was a post in support of capitalism which I know you support.

CNN will never tell you this because they like to paint distorted images.

Ibime:
Wike does not have platform this time if Tinubu takes platform away from him

Wike has only fought election in opposition against Buhari once, and Buhari was a soft touch with opposition which is why Peter Obi was able to have a strong run. That will never happen under Tinubu for Peter Obi. And if Tinubu turns favour away from Wike, he will be finished. There is no loyalty in Rivers politics. They don't back losing horses. You must be anchored to either the Governor or the President for them to support you, with a reasonable prospect of winning from your anchor; and Wike is only anchored to the President now. To lose election in Rivers is to lose everything and nobody will stake their pocket on you if you don't have power aligned in your favour. If President Tinubu aligns with Governor Fubara, it's over for Wike. The HOA and all structure will abandon him like they did to Amaechi

afrodoc2:
Extra money for goal scored? Shared by the team or only to the goalscorer. Na this kind thing dey stop players from passing to each other in front of goal.

Skimpledawg:
Such a matured refereeing

Unlimited22:
One day chelle will tell us who pays him to play Moses Simon

larride:
Because of the yellow in the last game so that he won't miss the semi final.

I hate to say this but chukwueze will cook in this game

Ramudeuter you were right.

100% justified.

that guy is a b****rd

the ps5 on its own is over 200w. then he put a standing AC - which is over 1500w
big tv is 150w or less on paper, but always ran my 1200w ups down in ten minutes

GloriousGbola:
what he can do depending on the layout of the compound house is fabricate a carport style shelter that will support the solar panels

steel will be 600 to 900k.

though you can theoretically do a wood structure for cheaper

BlueRayDick:
That's a major concern too.

I remember my former neighbor who had solar panels on the roof. He told me the story of how the landlord initially consented to him installing the solar panels. Then later the landlord began grumbling about effect of the panel on the roof and risk of burning down the house.

He was pissed with the man because he had initially given his consent. I guess the man spoke to people and they told him those solar panels come with some risks.

Since that neighbor left with his solar panel, I doubt the Landlord will allow any other person to fix theirs .

GloriousGbola:
500w [750va] is on par than the rating of a small 650va ups
i pass my neighbour has more capacity at 900va

if you try to run this with anything other than a lights and maybe a laptop and you will hear it.. try it with any tv over 32 inches and you will hear it.

most of these guys shilling these products on youtube are being very very very economical with reality. and their claims that the battery will last 8 to 10 years - that is another story- esp for these low tier africa only chinko/chineseium products

iamoyindamola:
The sunking is good and you can just get the itel power station it as inventer and inbuilt battery that can power 500w of house hold electronic its 300k with a solar panel to charge it, you can also charge with Nepa or generator

GloriousGbola:
90% chance they fk up the building roof

BlueRayDick:
In a rented apartment?

I intend to change location this year sha , so I'm cautious of doing any serious improvement that will require me doing wahala to uninstall later. That's why I'm looking for a temporary solution.

BlueRayDick:
Na the heat o.

My baby doesn't like heat one bit and would start crying the moment light goes off. The rechargeable fan I have barely last 30 minutes once NEPA light goes off.

I've been running on generator for a while now because of how poor power supply has been. But sometimes I feel bad for neighbors and people around.

Imagine NEPA takes light around 2am and I have no choice but to put on the generator because I don't want my baby crying all night due to heat. That means the neighbors have to bear the generator noise for as long as there's no light. There are days I even put on the gen from night till dawn.

Though nobody has called to complain about the generator noise yet, but the way my neighbor downstairs calls during the day to inform me once there's light tells me dem no dey happy with the night own, they just don't have a choice

So, I just feel getting that a lasting rechargeable fan will save my fuel and also save neighbors good night rest free from generator noise.

DissTroy:
Wike didn't deliver election for Tinubu. Everyone knows Peter Obi won Rivers State.

Everyone knows the fracas which ensued when Wike changed the total tally (including from Obio Akpor LGA) to Tinubu.

This isn't even about vote-buying or disenfranchisement - but outrightly rewriting the total figures. Do I need to repost the videos of election night to this effect?

Again, Wike is hàted in Port Harcourt. He is propping his son to become Obio Akpor LG Chairman like he was 25 year ago, but you can't bellow your support for Wike at Oil Mill Junction or Elelenwo or Slaughter (all areas in Obio Akpor) without getting mugged.
Ask your contacts in Rivers State to confirm.

Wike has never delivered Rivers State votes against the general sentiments.

In 2015 - Rivers was pro-Jonathan.
In 2019 - Rivers was pro-Atiku.
In 2023 - LGA level collation showed Rivers was pro-Obi.

How has Wike delivered against the general sentiments of the people?

If Obi is on the ballot in 2027, the difference will be thin.

Tinubu might more likely win Bayelsa easily than Rivers State.

semid4lyfe:
Will the bond also be required for those going for study?

PDPGuy:
Yeah, but what of those who are only visiting?

iamoyindamola:
I just hope other countries don't follow this country route, but are people still interested in this US

PDPGuy:
E don shele.. The actual bond amount could be either $5,000, $10,000, or $15,000 which will be determined solely by the Visa Officer during the visa interview. The pilot program starts on January 21 of this year🙆🏽‍♂️

The amount is only refundable if the traveler
- exits the U.S. before the expiration of their authorized period of stay,
- and also exits the U.S. through certain airports…

lbrichman2:
Simple!
I have addressed this before..
Lookman is a finisher, not a winger..
He is scoring now because he plays behind the strikers and he gets passes in the areas where he can strike at goal..

Lookman does not pass
No be today..
The reason he's having assists is because the balls get to him where he cannot strike at goal, so he passes or crosses ..
If Lookman gets a pass in front of goal, he won't pass to anybody
He'd rather find a way to score

That's his game.
Simple

9JAMac10:
I want Algeria for quarterfinals

That freekick Mahrez use knock us out for 2019 still dey pain me

Kog45:
Only those who don't know football will tell us Lookman is selfish, Lookman style of play can only be appreciated by real football watchers....haba,a selfish player dey get assist and funny highest assists with three goals so far,Abeg talk another thing Oga Ibrich.

Let me make it clear, Osimhen is our starboy so people must talk about him, it's all over social media not only here
