Politics › Re: 4 Months After Tinubu Launched N50 BN Tractor Initiative, Tractors Remain Unused by TheGift: 9:38am On Oct 21, 2025
Tareq1105:
PrinceOfLagos, you have started this morning. Why giving it free?

How do we now pay back the loan to Belarus? Do you think it's free?

The arrangement is for farmers, through their Govs, to pay 50% while Fed Govt subsidize the 50% in the interest of the populace.
So how do they pay back the loan when the trucks are lying fallow? Isn't it better to give it out free (and possibly earn from the produce) than stay stuck in limbo? Do you know how much it is going to cost to service or repair those trucks that have been lying fallow?

Education › Re: I Gave My SS2 Student A Physics Assignment, She Answered “masturbate” by TheGift: 4:12pm On Oct 20, 2025
TechToyin:
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?
My initial instinct will be to bring it to the attention of the entire class that someone gave such an answer.

Then I would ask the class to give a logical explanation for why someone would give such an answer

Then I would call out the student who gave the answer to come and explain why She did it, in the presence of everybody, so that we can all learn.

Depending on how she answers the question, I may handle it within the class or escalate to the next superior staff, that I report to.

If she was being mischievous she already knows, she knows that you know and some of her colleagues probably already know. Thus tip toeing around the issue rather than nip it in the bud, means you should expect some more deviation from Her or her colleagues.

Not just the cost as the stand alone reason, listen to me clearly.
The period is very short my guy. You can't spend 37 million naira on wedding and walk away from it after just two weeks even if you married devil himself/herself. If the woman was the one who spent that amount, she wouldn't walk away just after two weeks. She would want to exercise patience and see if both could walk through their issues.
OK. Makes sense.

Why the long sermon? The point of Op is simple: who walks out of 37 million naira wedding just after two weeks? We know what you are saying but we equally understand what Op meant.
It is easier to walk away just after two weeks when you were not the one who spent 37 million naira undecided undecided
So you think the cost of the wedding is a reason to stay in the marriage even if you realize you have made a mistake?

Family › Re: My Brother's Wife Has Refused To Mourn Him Because He Died With His Sidechick by TheGift:
Dogalmighty17:
Showing up all made up the way she did and leaving as soon as he was committed to the ground will indicate that her character is a possible reason why the husband looked outside in the first place.
I am not excusing the late husband's cheating. But whatever it is, he remains the father of her children and if she has nothing else to mourn for, that her kids will grow up without their father is reason enough.
Secondly, her actions indicate she is outrightly cutting ties with her husband's people. Possibly, that will be the last time they'll see her or the kids.
The way the husband died is shameful. The wife drawing attention to it by her actions, embarrasses her in-laws and her children. Of course there will be mourners at the burial who are not family and they will be wondering why the wife left. They will get to know the reason why and whatever positive memory they may have about the late husband, will vaporise.

Any woman who can openly disrespect and disregard her in-laws like that is a woman who never had much regard or respect for her husband in the first place..


Kobojunkie avoid me. You go show here now now.
Guy, would you say the same if it was your sister, whose husband died with a side chick?

At least, commend her for showing up at the funeral. Is it until she wears sack cloth and ashes that you will be satisfied?

Please leave her be. People mourn differently.

As a Strategist, I would say this looks like a strategy to douse the tension , and distract the citizenry, without denying or changing anything.

Clemency is Clemency , regardless of the crime. And they have granted clemency to drug dealers and murderers, along with activists, falsely accused and freedom fighters.

Administrative procedure is a secondary amd small matter.

Despite her having pcos during our dating year, she got pregnant and she decided to abort it which i was strongly against.

Now we are married and she still hasn't gotten pregnant, it's over a year now. We did series of test and I did too and we are both okay, except for the fact that she has pcos. She hasn't seen her period for the past months. Very soon people will start asking questions.

Anyone with any experience about this and how to tackle it?
You lost me at "Very soon people will start asking questions"

What is your business with people? And what is their business with you.

You guys better face yourselves and deal with the situation amongst yourself.

Stop making her out to be the bad one, cos you impregnated Her in the first place. Take joint responsibility for your past and how you will take on the future. You still have hope.

Reno, is this the best defense you can come up with?
Don't mind that clown. He should go and read Renos comments on Twitter, when it looked like Obi might win the elections, and how different they were from before the elections and after the results were announced. Maybe he will finally admit that Reno lacks any moral compass, but is led by mainly by His stomach.

Saturnalia:
I know Reno Omokri is not a saint. Nobody is perfect and we all have our flaws, but sane and sensible Nigerians can see through these coordinated attacks launched against Reno (Just like they did to Segalink) by the Obidient Mob, simply because he has been ruffling their feathers for a long time.

We all know that these attacks on Reno stem from exposing the smelly Yansh of Peter Obi. Even if Reno Omokri is a lair, he can never compete with Peter Obi.

The Obidients that have been telling us that Peter Obi is an Archangel Michael who just dropped from Heaven last year, and has no character flaws, and is the only person that can save Nigeria - are who you want me to believe & take seriously ?

The same Peter Obi that is part of the rotten establishment, and who has benefited massively from the rot? Is who you are painting to me as an Archangel? grin

He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. You’re accusing Reno Omokri of what you have been caught doing red-handed so many times ? Is that not funny? grin

This is why I don’t take any one of them seriously.

You all must be joking if you think Peter Obi will ever be elected as the Nigerian President even in a Billion Years from now.

In conclusion, I will choose Reno Omokri over Peter Obi or Mike Arnold or any Obidient member & fictitious character that was dug up to smear his reputation any day any time.

Look who is accusing Reno Omokri of being a Joseph Goebbels? grin

The Obidients that have been caught several times employing lies & propaganda to sway & manipulate gullible Nigerians on Twitter and on other Social Media Platforms want us to believe Reno Omokri is Joseph Goebbels?

All of you are not serious. Go and sleep!
The reason your post is so long is because even you are trying so hard to convince yourself of the lie that Reno is not a pathological two-faced liar that is only guided by his stomach.

Guy, rest.

How does this change the fact that Reno is a flip flopping liar that speaks from both sides of His mouth?

If America is not number one, that statistics is a scam.


You cannot tell me that you are smarter than Americans yet the world's innovations and groundbreaking technologies and scientific inventions always emerge from the same America. Even China in their smartness mostly copy American technologies discovered by Americans.


In my own personal experience about the world, the statistics should start from:


1.) USA
2.) UK
3.) Japan
4.) China
5.) others can follow
Your brain has been colonised. Even the top scientists in American companies are not American but Asian especially Indian. And India is not on your list.

The fact that you even have UK in the top 5 and before Japan, shows your.mind has really been colonised.

That is your choice, I leave with my family and peace of mind in the US to the glory of God. I've been working in big organizations since I've landed and never experienced the so called racism. America is a multi racial country, and if yourself are a racist, then you will witness racism. I've worked with both black, white and brown. Meanwhile, the gun violence in Nigeria is even more than the so called America with the rate of kidnapping, banditry going on. One chance is not a new thing to Lagos.
Exactly. In your part of US. You can't say same for every part of the US. Just like you can't say same for every part of Naija. I am an entrepreneur in naija. I will need to earn ten times more in US to live the quality of life I live here. Let's not even talk about taxes.

My ideal is to be able to go anywhere in the world whenever I need or want to, but my base, the place where my deepest roots and ultimate Investment in will always be in naija, then Africa before any where else.

P.S. Your claim that only racists experience racism is a fallacy. You and I know that. And you have probably not experienced racism because you behave and stay in line.

My answer is Yes, as someone who grew up in naija, worked in naija before relocating. I value my piece of mind, it's not only about money. Whenever, I remembered the type of stress I went through in the city of Lagos, I can't imagine myself continuing with that type of life. You have car, you cannot drive it in peace, traffic one, people lacking driving education dragging road with you, and you will eventually park that car for one side. A lot of people behave as if they are crazy. Neighbor generator will not let you sleep till 12am, another holier than thou Neighbor will begin night vigil by that 12am disturbing your sleep when you are living in a considerable better environment mainland, as if that is not enough, another preacher will start in own by 5am beside your window till 7am why won't someone break down in those scenarios. The stress is just too much in that country, it's not only about money. We have only one life to live, and one should enjoy it. I've heard many saying abroad is boring, in abroad you can create your fun and make your self happy.
I am in Lagos, i have structured myself and my life to ensure. I have peace of mind. If I was in the US and my kids were going to schools there, I will not have peace of mind, due to gun violence in schools and racism in society. To each is own
