As you can see all over the thread, they've unleashed the propaganda of ipob esn carried out the killings.

Tinubu media group will consume Nigeria at the rate they're going.

Mexyz:
Nice story line though but that age that he became a manager in a NIGERIAN BANK is NOT POSSIBLE.
Even if his father was the Bank's founder, it's not possible to become a full manager in a Nigerian bank at 22.

The term manager has a different meaning in banking than the general meaning of the word.

So yea, a Customer Service Manager is a Manager of people, but does not have to be a full manager in banking terms, to become a CSM.

You get the drift...

Lanretoye:
Enugu-port harcourt-calabar-Abuja…useless people still come up with another propaganda,even when a child born since 1980 in the east has never seen a railway in the whole south east till today except he steps outside the east.them wan help their life now,dem Dey talk another thing.

So because they want to build railway in the midst of multidimensional poverty and crippling inflation, nobody should scrutinise a multi-billion dollar contract?

With such a hate filled mindset and slow thinking, you're never going far in life.

It's difficult to feel any sympathy for the same Nigerian army that kills citizens for fun.

I don't care. They got a small taste of what they have been dishing out for decades and we won't rest.

Abeg, second base jare!

Putindbutt:
Negotiate for what exactly?.. Gumi flew the kite, NEF agreed with him and the bandits are coming out to act the script. Amnesty had failed in the past, it would never ever work, they love the bush like a bone marrow, they'd always go back there committing crimes, they are hardened terrorists. The news of US and some advanced countries willing to offer assistance to deal with them must have left their camp in disarray. Any governor that negotiate with them must be arrested and locked up by DSS. We didn't negotiate with ipob and we won't do that with any group of terrorists.

You're just making noise.

Boko Haram members have been receiving rehabilitation for years now.

El Rufai once admitted to paying bandits to not cause mayhem, and he's not the only one.

You need to admit that the security architecture has broken down in Nigeria.

Your attempt to bring ipob into it means you're dishonest at best.

What is the IGR of Onitsha compared to Zaria, Ikeja, or even Ibadan What a joke "The Ministry of Commerce should be moved to where they sit at home on Monday (business day) " !gbos like to attach too much emotion to everything . The Ministry should be moved to Ikeja or Zaria, the bitter truth is that SE as a region contributes a very minute percentage to the Nigeria's GDP.

The person that gave the suggestion isn't Igbo yet you're foaming in the mouth.

Na Igbo matter go send you to 6 feet last last

It's a crying shame that laws are flagrantly flouted within a supposedly sovereign nation operating under a constitution.

The deleterious effects will continue to haunt the country for decades.

I weep for a country that once was

Mayplays:
Lol. I’m probably the most real African woman you have ever spoken to and a very intelligent one too. I don’t even wear fake hair at all and I clear the doubts of white men who individually think they are superior to me just because they are white

They are a superior race for now and have always been, even a baby knows that. A white man might not be smarter than you individually but as a race it’s very clear that they are… You can choose to deny this with all your strength and might but it doesn’t change the facts

I’m secure I’m enough in my intelligence to admit this that they are just better. Africans weren’t the only ones taken into slavery, I wonder when you will stop using that as an excuse, it irritates the hell out of me when African men use that as an excuse. It just makes you look like pseudo women


Are you still blaming them for the current happenings in your continent? If they are to blame then it is clear that they are smarter and playing us like a fiddle.

A human adult can blame whoever he or she wants for how his life turned out but everyone knows still knows it’s your fault the way you are right now… I mean the whole world has moved on and you are still in the dark ages blaming people that were here over 200 years ago for your problems

Even the South Africa that these whites remained in question is the only developed, 2nd world country in AFRICA.:. And black South Africans brag about it everyday…

You can choose to deceive yourself, but you aren’t deceiving anyone but yourself

Lol.

Once I hear "I am intelligent" I just know I have a know-it-all, obtuse being on my hands.

I specifically gave you phrases you can Google to start your journey of learning about civilisations but no; your aim is to win arguments on the internet and praise yourself and whatever "intelligence" you think you have.

Unfortunately I'm not going to give you any more pointers and will happily allow you wallow proudly in your ignorance.

I just hope you don't procreate with an enlightened black man because his seeds are doomed with such a mindset in their mother, and then we'd have completely lost a black generation to "slavery".

Won't bother reading your response.

Mayplays:
I agree with all you said and also called her out but they are superior as a race and deep down you know this

The whole world does, no matter how we try to deceive ourselves

Do you have any knowledge of human evolution and the history of civilisations?

You genuinely believe caucasians are a superior race? I'm embarrassed on your behalf.

You need to thoroughly educate yourself to undo such damaging misconceptions in your mind.

Before you respond, at least do some research to understand how humans and civilisations have evolved, and continue to evolve even today.

Your statement is exactly what a mentally and spirituality subjugated negroid would make, which is the objective of "slavery".

Like I said, do some deep research, educate yourself and you'd understand that we are the cornerstone and bedrock of all human civilisations.

Teenaira:
Your first sentence is right, Infact, very right.

Your second sentence is wrong, I am a Nigerian and do not believe Peter Obi is better in any way than any of the other politician. They are one and the same. This is the general view of Nigerians. Make your point and stop campaigning for useless polithiefiance.

Stop with the gaslighting mr man.

PO has practically demonstrated his frugality and lean resource management not only during his 2 terms as governor, but in his personal and business life.

We know your type, always thinking every one else is corrupt and wasteful like them.

Abeg shift!

Cameland:
Don't base it on percentage. Get the fact right. How many people were rejected. If 100 Ghana people applied and 50 percent were rejected that's 50 people. If 500 Nigerians applied and 50 percent were rejected that 250. So let us know in figure. I was told about a report written some times ago that "Report in UK says that 60 percent of a particular country citizens die during child birth in the UK and NHS sent doctors and Nurses to that location. But the population of that country citizens in the specified location in UK is just 27."

Percentages are actually a better way of looking at the issue because it compares one group to another.

In the case you referenced, the reason the NHS intervened is because every single life is highly regarded and the fact that 60% of a particular population are facing such a deadly rate compared to other groups is a big source of concern.

In summary, 27 lives is a very big number but you're used to the govt not caring about you so it seems like an overkill to you when it is how normal citizens are treated in serious countries.

You should feel pity for Nigerians who are treated worse than animals in their own country.

WorldRichest:
They don't understand Politics. Kindergarten Politicians dipping hands into the eyes of their lords. The god of Politics Emilokan Asiwaju Tinubu and the lord of Politics Nyezom Wike the wicked one will teach the kindergartens lessons they will never forget

Fantastic politics that made Nigeria the poverty capital of the world; that has caused and is still causing pain to hundreds of millions of Nigerians.

The lessons are being learnt by food inflation jumping by almost 100% in one year. By tens of millions falling into extreme hardship.

The lessons are being learnt by massive insecurity and unemployment.

Long may the lessons continue until Nigeria becomes Venezuela or Zimbabwe .

waledeji:
Not too long ago it was Fulani solders , Now its Yoruba Soldiers


Ibo people eh😂😂😂😂

And you know he's Igbo because?

So anyone against the criminal gangs in high places is Igbo? That means only Igbos bode well for Nigeria then.

What a sîlly comment!

Khyrvxjzy:
coming from ibo that have never and will never rule nigeria

You just assumed that he is Igbo

Seems its only Igbo people that think well in Nigeria cos that's you people's first attack line whenever you see post against Ronu buffoons.

Meanwhile, Yoruba and Fulani that have been "ruling" for decades, where has it taken Nigeria to? How has it benefited the common man?

People like you are still in bondage both spiritually and physically

Igbo hate will consume you in due course, Mark my words

Nauttyprof:
I won't be lengthy in my response anymore as I see you are just bent on your position. Culture has nothing to do with the backwardness in Africa. There are countries who uphold their culture and still made progress.

Those countries that upheld their culture and made progress, what type of cultural values have they held on to?

Cultural/National values has everything to do with technological and scientific advancement.

Do you actually understand the nexus between cultural values, laws, human behaviour and societal progress?

You definitely do not understand the complex relationship those four items share.

I leave you to your "wisdom".

Thank you Lord for Sound Health.

Typical Nigerian

Once I'm okay, I thank God and look away.

Sound health today means you or a loved one can't fall ill tomorrow?

Una must learn lessons

Tareq1105:
It's bcoz you guys don't understand Nigeria Politics and the permutation.

Do you know that if Tinubu had not contested power would have remain in the North through Atiku?

This is what we were trying to make you guys understand that it's only Tinubu that could stand Atiku shoulder to shoulder, match him money for money, influence for influence.

Obi wouldn't have been able to face Atiku. South East should be happy that power is here in the south and we thank our brothers in the North especially those of APC family for their understanding.

No region can do it alone and this is what the Ibos don't understand. For you to be president, you need the support, appeal, and acceptability of 4 geopolitical zones.

The fact that Obi won massively in Abuja, Plateau and Lagos nullifies your statements.

Obi was never a regional candidate and its obvious (to sane minds) that he enjoys wide acceptability in most parts of Nigeria.

APC colluding with Yakub Mahmoud and INEC to rig elections is not the flex you think it is.

The good thing is that the poverty, insecurity and impunity will touch everybody and their family, including you.

Paramount01:
Economy is what you change over night abi, be playing. I can see you are daft illiterate in finance

But it was significantly worsened overnight no?

We will be here when Nigeria happens to you and you will seek help but will be mocked

Nauttyprof:
It is your mindset that has rather made Nigeria inferior to the western practice. Culture is different from politics. Practicing our culture doesn't mean that truth shouldn't be spoken.

It is people like you who have ruined our culture because of seemingly better western practices. You still have the slavery mentality and you need to free yourself from this.

So, we are both clear I have travelled out of the shores of Nigeria and I have been to countries technologically advanced, yet, they uphold their culture. It is your mentality that has rather ruined Nigeria.

Culture is not politics and it is neither technological development. It is just a way of life.

🤣 🤣

And you think you're the only one who has travelled?

Funny dude!

Anyway, just to ensure we're not deviating from the point of discussion, I countered your notion that calling an older person by their name is disrespectful.

I maintain that it is not disrespectful in any way and is infact civil and polite.

I also maintain that respect can only be earned by giving it. And that this "culture" of respecting your elders is part of why Africa has largely remained in the 20th century.

It is mental subjugation to insist that everyone younger than you must add a Sir or Ma to your name or call you Aunt or Uncle.

If you know anything about child psychology, you will agree that such subjugation leads to a docile and subservient adult population, which is exactly what Nigerians have become over generations. You only become animated once you or your religion or tribe is "disrespected".

At the end of the day, a culture must be dynamic, and propel its practitioners towards a better future.

I have never alluded to us doing away with our cultural values. Rather, I'm simply advocating for us to continually introspect and improve aspects of our culture that no longer serve us or harm us.

I will leave you with a practical example of how this your concept of respect is a problem.

In the private sector, an overwhelming majority of organisations operate on a first name basis from Board members to the lowest ranked employee. Juxtapose this with the public sector where there's your kind of "respect".

Do you not see the remarkable differences in employee productivity, output and innovation between both sectors?

While the difference in "cultural values" in both sectors is not the sole reason for the marked difference in characteristics and output, it is well known in the business world that "Culture eats Strategy for breakfast".

I rest my case.

Faiththatworks:
Seun,what is wrong with all the MODs today.
It seems they are determined to keep pushing bad news left, right and centre this weekend
Like I said, people who work in the world of technology understand what is happening
It is well but sincerely we need to be very careful with what news we push out
Coming back to the topic of the day,I want to agree and disagree with Bismarck.If he says people are hungry and angry with this government,I totally agree with him and Government is not helping matters
During the week,the estate I live in Lagos received palliatives and what was brought is unbelievable
We got a 50kg Bag of Garri and a 50kg Bag of Beans for an estate comprising of more than 100 families,we are yet to decide on how to share this palliatives so I totally agree that people are hungry and the President must find a way to resolve this food problem

For people with Mental Health issues being on the increase,I beg to differ.This is a very sensitive issue and Mr Rewane should show us data to justify this assertion or else he needs to understand that it is not hunger alone that causes mental health
There are so many things that causes mental health issues and saying that Hunger is a major cause is dancing around the issue
People are angry right now and I really pray those in authority will take a look into solving this issue of unemployment and job creation for all

If you apply critical thinking you can draw a connection between increased poverty and hopelessness, drug abuse and mental health issues.

Or do you expect a juggernaut like Bismark Rewane to spoonfeed you?

Instead of being angry about the criminals and vagabonds stealing your common wealth you're picking a grouse with what is just 1% of the terrible goings on making news?

Pretend, emergency lovers of Nigeria, we see you

Nauttyprof:
Respect is earned has always being the narrative of the disrespectful in many situations I have seen. An adult doesn't have to earn any respect but they deserve the respect irrespective of their character. This is where culture comes in. Culture has nothing to do with technological or scientific development as there is no connection whatsoever. Instead, it is part of societal values. Why are the westerners imbibing our culture now while we are losing ours while copying theirs? Do they want to go backwards technologically by doing this? Going by your own narrative. It's really sad.

You're mistaken being civil or polite for respect.

Respect is earned by giving it hence the phrase respect is reciprocal.

No one automatically deserves respect in any situation, except maybe one's parents cos they birthed you but even then, if one's parents consistently disrespect their child then they actually deserve whatever they get.

Your mindset is very disturbing but I'm not surprised - it's what has kept Nigerians in bondage for decades.

People don't speak the truth to criminals in the society in the name of respecting one's elders.

You better wake up and free yourself from such a subservient mentality!

Nauttyprof:
When you lose your culture and morals, you end up with words as yours.

She has said nothing wrong. We are gradually losing our culture to copy western practice whereas some of these westerners are gradually imbibing our culture. Respect and values are key.

Culture of subjugation that never brought any technological or scientific innovation

When did calling people by their name become disrespectful?

Yes I know in some Nigerian cultures, emphasis is placed on using prefixes like Aunty, Uncle, Sir and Ma but all those do not necessarily equal respect.

Respect is usually earned and thus, people may call someone by those prefixes and still disrespect them thoroughly.

For example I've heard so many times where people say "brother yen o gbadun", "iya yen siwin", etc.

Salutation has never meant respect at any time in history but will you learn?

This judge wan chop serious beating

To be serious, only God can stop the demolition. If the residents like, let them bribe the spirits, those houses on drainages, canals and unapproved buildings are going down!!!

Lagos is NOT a No man's land. It has laws and customs that MUST be followed.

Anyone that prefers choas and lawlessness can go to back to the south east, no lele


And for the "I'm Yoruba but..." people. Have you I.diots asked yourselves why these set of people did not protest when Soludo demolished buildings in Anambra in a bid to create a more orderly state but are protesting in your own state/region? Omo ales

Was it an Igbo person that was posted up there that took the matter to court?

Is it Igbo people that live in Oworoshoki?

Your obsession with Igbos will drive you mental soon

Smile4mee01:
I have been abroad for a while now and i am curious to know why some of our ladies decline dating or marrying fellow Nigerians in the diaspora. I have tried to date a few any they are often quick to assume i am after them for their papers while i just prefer my own, someone who understands my culture and where i have come from. Even when i try to date the ones that don't have paper, regular work visa holders like me. They seem to want to be with the guys that have papers.

Also, when i am old, i would like to return to Nigeria. Marrying outside would make that transition very difficult.

I study other races, Immigrant groups from India and Asia. they work together well, and don't have these difficulty.

Should i give up on being with a Nigerian or keep trying ?

Regards.

All the young Nigerians I know, 90% of them are now seriously dating and have married citizens.

Nigerian girls always prefer someone who already is established and has residence. Those ones too are mostly players so dem dey knack the desperate girls akpako.

In summary, go for citizens and if you're lucky you'll meet a Nigerian citizen who will love you for you.

Of course you should try to get your own residence and papers in case of "incasity".

I rest my case.

beekind:
I am the 2nd born out of 2 children, my elder brother has been married for some time with no kids as a result I am super careful with issues relating to fertility.
I am in my late 30s and have been dating a 27 year old lady for 4 months now, the relationship moved so fast as she is a perfect match for me .
I have met her family and she has met mine, we are already planning marriage and have started counselling sessions in her church.

She complained of irregular periods so I told her to do a hormonal profile test and see a gynecologist, turns out she has got PCOS.

I have done my own fertility test and I am fine, I am at a cross road now, I cannot afford to struggle with child birth considering my age and also my only other sibling still also having issues with the wife also still trying to get pregnant after many years.

The only other option would have been to ask her to try for pregnancy before marriage but she is a virgin and wants to keep it that way till wedding, besides if I disvirgin her, how will I be able to walk away incase she doesn't get pregnant ?

I am at crossroads now, its not too late but walking away at this point will be very costly for me since we have already started plans towards the wedding and our families are already in touch.

My heart is heavy and I am confused, I need good advise as I cannot discuss this with anyone.

You're trying to play God

Also, even more worrisome is the fact that you're obsessed with having children and this seems to be your sole reason for wanting to get married?

You're letting fear rule your life. Ordinary PCOS is what you're running away from?

Again, you're trying to play God and everyone I know who's tried to do this ends up in bitter regrets.

If she is a good wife, then do not lose her out of fear of the unknown. PCOS is very common and easily treatable with lifestyle changes and healthy living.

I am saying this as someone whose woman was diagnosed with same and we're expecting our first in a few months.

Let go of fear and start living your life to the fullest man.

Cheers.

Princewell2012:
You're right this morning my wife was trying to be rude to me and I told her can your pastor wife behave in such manner, she comfortably replied me that her pastor is the one that goes to the market to buy food ingredients, so I told her what is the evidence? She said her pastor openly said it in church.
You see our women are not ready to be submissive even the so called Christians among them.
How much traveling them abroad, they can even plan your deportation.

So you can't go groceries or food shopping because you're a man?

Wonders shall never cease walahi

Make sure you don't cross Seme border with that woman cos she will show you unbridled shege!

rotadeco27:
If u guys had taken this path post election, the movement would have been sustained and gained more tractions by now and would be formidable by 2027, but u became so irritable and abusive to the extent that even the yorubas that voted obi were not spare from the inferno!The way so obidients handled the loss was so imature. I don't think why u expected that yekini, Adamu , etc in the villages would vote a person they did not know , for someone to present 1st from an unpopular party for presidential election and had over 6million votes is not a push over and I can tell you that several thousands of Yorubas vote were counted in the magic . Going forward from 2022 election, it is obvious that obi government would have been far more tribalistic than PBAT's.
If Obi likes let him go to any party , he can't score 2/3rd of what he had in 2022. At least the lies of being demented,poo on the body , using pampers can not sell again.
Now you are saying it is not about tribe but you cast serious blame on a particular tribe for the loss of your candidate! The damage control strategy can not work as the damage is too deep to mend.

Yorubas are being blamed for foisting on Nigeria, an avaricious drug cartel man with a shady past and crooked, violent history.

And so what?!

Over the 100 years of "Nigeria's" existence, every major tribe in Nigeria has faced not just "blames for the country's woes" but far worse situations including targeted hate crimes and pogroms

It didn't prevent common sense from prevailing when it comes to voting the most competent candidates as president. The data is clear that Nigerians have always voted people from ethnic groups different to theirs for president, with some like Igbos who even abandoned their war hero to vote for a Yoruba man.

Cutting your nose to spite your face is the lowest level of cowardice and self sabotage. Refusing to do the right thing in order to "pepper" some other ethnic group will only see Nigeria regress even faster and maybe accelerate its implosion.

Do you even have any atom of love for Nigeria? How can you be propagating anarchists and criminals in power in the name of "politics"? You want progress and prosperity but don't want equity, fairness, justice and accountability?

Unless you're a sadist or you're being paid to have and propagate such an opinion, then you really need to do some objective, rational soul-searching and rid your heart of bile and hate. That is if you're capable of doing so.

Mr Man nothing wrong with Nigeria, No Country is an Utopia, definitely no country in Africa.

Nothing wrong with over 60% of Nigerians living in wretched, multidimensional poverty and unemployment rate of over 30%.

Nothing wrong with failed healthcare system and inflation rate of over 20%.

Nothing wrong with failed education system and having tens of millions of children out of school.

Indeed there is absolutely nothing wrong with Nigeria

Una suffer never even start oloun

kpompey:
Mr Peter Obi remains a packaged fraud and good Nigerians do not fall to his antics. A man who saw election as religion war will not be different from Tinubu. Their policies will be targeted to kill Nigerian further, just like the situation now and their so called enlightened follower who to me are dunce will come up again in their defense. Yes daddy, ok daddy

Same thing folks like you said about Buhari the wicked Fulani coup plotter.

GEJ would have been worse...8 years later una never still learn

This unnecessary resort to ethnic chauvinism is what will nail the coffin on the British business experiment called Nigeria.

Anything that looks or feels Igbo is an instant threat to subservient, slavish folks.

I doubt you people will still learn after Tinubu turns Nigeria to Venezuela or Argentina.

Until unthinking people like you become a silent minority, the country will keep sinking - no two ways about it.

Your last statement aptly sums up the level of your intellectual range.

Let me laugh again
