Then he should detached money from our politics.Politician should be paid minimum wage at intermediate level. They wanted to serve and this does not in anyway interfere with their individual businesses. All excesses should be cut off, and we should go back to the building phase even if we all need to return to farms. Electricity should be stable, equality like a communist society should be preached, and not a society that oppress the poor with their own stolen wealth. I have traveled to Finland, Poland, Norway , Italy and Germany and non of these nations can match Nigeria in terms of resources and wealth, yet they enjoy dividends of good leadership. The case of dollar to naira should be a reverse today but our leaders sold us out and turned us to fugitives in foreign land. May all leaders who contributed to this hardship never no peace, even in death. I taught we will be lucky in Tinubu but again it is the same old song.The rich are getting richer and the poor are dying in penury.Everyone desires to live the country despite the humiliation and abuse will faced in foreign land. If Tinubu is sincere, let him raised a bill to decentralize Nigeria or we return to the confederal system where we have limited power at the centre. We will develop Nigeria at the micro level and it will be very easy to checkmate the excesses of our leaders.Every region to his constitution, police, security and development. This federalism is a platform for thieves and rogues who feed on Nigeria at the expense of Nigerians.

You 'taught' you'll be lucky with Tinubu

Let me laugh



With debased, unenlightened minds like you in the majority, democracy will never work for Nigeria.

You better keep standing on the drug baron's mandate, it's too early to start wailing.

kpompey:
I am a yoruba man, I got blocked here on nairaland severally because of my staunch support for Tinubu. My friend laughed at me today because of the state of our nation and my believe in Tinubu for a new Nigeria. I don't care about Tinubu , I cared about Nigerians and my family at home. Tell me in Tinubu six months as president,a policy he has made to cushion the pain and suffering of Nigerians. He never cared, all he was doing was to travel around the world to patch his long term damage reputation which to me is irreparable, while putting his allies and loyalist in key offices. I was there when Osinbajo was a few month or weeks president and he ensured dollar was pegged at 350 from over 700 Buhari left it. Human being are involved here, and not animals.Today many Nigerians are living below the poverty line which means Nigerians are poor than poor, yet things are damn expensive and nothing seems affordable to the poor again even garri in the market.This type of settings give rise to insecurity, higher crime rate and many menace that could jeopardize the damage reputation of our country further. He should think of a way to stabilize the economy, after which we can gradually transit to the invisible canaan he is promising, which no one sees. Enough is enough, soon Nigerians will start throwing stones at their convoy after they push us to the wall. Despicable men stairs the ship of our nation, making disastrous self serving policies in the interest of the masses. God will punish Tinubu and his family if he failed to do the needful.

You're still imagining that a criminal drug baron will do anything meaningful?

Someone who has zero integrity and who believes in employing violence to achieve his aims.

Your suffering is just warming up

StOla:
Very impressive.



Tinubu is appointing majorly 4 zones.

I reckon your zone is at the bottom of the food chain.




You mean the Southerners that did not vote for him?

Tinubu's appointments have reflected his 1st tier political base of SouthWest, NorthWest, NorthCentral.

2nd tier is NorthEast and SouthSouth.

We know the last tier.

And all of these are based on the statistical reality of the electoral victory he secured.

Besides competency, he knows not to waste political reward where it cannot be reciprocated.

They're squandering you and your children's future in the name of political reward.

You're applauding them.

You can't make this up

Stawner16:
Oh well, let’s blame the government again for this. Truth is, Nigerians are their own problem. Evil reigns in the heart of most people smh.

What are you saying?

In a democratic nation with citizens, it is the responsibility of the executive arm of government to tackle crime.

But then again, is Nigeria a democratic nation? Does Nigeria have citizens?

So maybe you're inadvertently right.

frog12:
so if you overhaul the mindset, she must DIVORCE the husband immediately, right?

As I said, they probably deserve each other.

Also, I don't think divorce is a good option in any situation especially when kids are involved, although I appreciate that sometimes it is the practical option.

frog12:
sorry, you just thrashed the person. no real advice on the situation.

church hides all these qualities you mention, so you end up marrying the wrong person, they tell you God will fix the problem.

Don't read to respond.

Read in-between the lines and you'll find the advice which is aimed at tackling the root cause of the issue.

Her mindset, values and outlook need major overhaul and reorientation.

preshpraiz:
It's 2.47 am here but I can't sleep, I hardly sleep these days.

My whole world is crumbling.
I have been a regular guest here for awhile now but had to register this morning, I need somewhere to pour out my heart, somewhere to dump my frustrations.

I came from a good, not so rich home but my parents were so hardworking.I had a good moral upbringing, went to tertiary institution and graduated with good grades.

While in school, I never had a boy friend though I had a lot of "chykers", never went clubbing, didn't socialize much.

Few months to the end of my NYSC, I met my husband. We got talking and boom, I fell in love with him. He is my ideal man....he doesn't drink nor smoke, gentle and soft spoken.

He wasn't earning much but it didn't bother me. I believe in working hard and growing with my man.

Now my regrets...
* The "angel" I married has refused to get a job after losing the last one during COVID 19.

He said he can never work in a private company again. His target is multinationals.

I encouraged him to pick up a job with private company while hoping for a bigger fish at least to support in taking care of the needs at home but he said no.

I'm left with taking care of our 3 kids, feeding, school fees and virtually every need at home. All he does is press phone, gamble and sleep.

Now our rent is due, no money.
I married as a virgin, married for love and not money, work my ass off, doing so many side hustle to shoulder the expenses at home. I'm tired. I regret all these.

When I see my "unserious" classmates on social media and sometimes offline, I weep. See them living large. I thought all the sacrifices I made way back will pay off now.
I have made up my mind that if he doesn't fix the rent, I will move back to my parent's house.

Kindly feel free to advise or bash me. Tankio

First, your mindset on a lot of things are so so wrong. The worst is you're raising kids and will impart them with such tainted philosophies of life.

I will take time to give you some examples.

1. Believing you deserve a smooth and happy life simply because you kept your virginity and lived a boring life in uni. You're probably one of the religiously overzealous Christians who completely have the concept of Christianity upside-down, thinking they will not suffer or go through hardship because they are "born again".

Wake up and smell the coffee. As it is said in the book of Ecclesiastes, the race is not for the swift, nor is the battle won by the mighty...Time and chance happens to them all...

2. The fact that you mentioned drinking, smoking and womanising as your major criteria in selecting a life partner shows your mentality is so backwards.

What happened to kindness, steadfastness, integrity, tenacity, mental and emotional maturity, inspirational and other more noble qualities to look out for when choosing a partner?

You have a lot of work to do to change your mindset and orientation!

3. Last but not the least, you were comparing your lives with people's pictures on social media?

That is madness at its peak!

In summary, maybe you and the guy deserve each other cos your level of thinking is way too low.

I'm only sorry for the kids who will have you and the other guy as parents, life is already leading them 5-0 as it stands.

Is there hope? Maybe.

It depends on whether you and your partner are willing to put in the work.

I wish you both the best anyhow.

Arrrrrrrh

TOTAL, COMPREHENSIVE AND SUFFOCATING STRIKE LOADING!




I have noticed something with some of this Nairaland TInubu Supporter. They keep saying Tinubu is a man of strategy. They will always mention Lagos as a key reference.


Your Past History doesn't Guarantee your upcoming SUCCESS. It is just like gambling, you can be winning today and tomorrow you will lose all your bet.

Past Glory since how many years? Nigeria, sorry Lagos don change since Tinubu comot, things ain't like before and he thought to use the old man sense strategy to rule a whole Nigeria, Nigerians that vote Tinubu are jokers.

Success by cornering the state's resources and converting its assets to personal use and his cronies?

Why do you think he is desperate and willing to kill to make sure he never loses Lagos?

It will eventually happen and you'll see the level of rot and aggrandizement.

pendragonbladgo:
This is the solution for the economic crises that may last the next 1years before stability.

If you are a single Man, pause married until 2years time - you won't die. After all, you are living with a woman forever. Marriage it self is not everything about life, it is just a union to strengthen the society and to give way for a continuous generation.

If you are married, don't do a mistake to have more than one child, if you can not control your sexual activities with your wife, then just add another child to make it 2kids...
Even if you have a good job and properties, don't try to have more than one or two children.
If you are very comfortable, You can extend an helping hands, train someone Children in the society, Church or Islamic communities. Don't be greedy, if you train other people's Children, it his part of success in life too.

If you are single and jobless, as a lady - do hook up, and guys do Internet fraud.
But if you want to live a decent life and don't want to go into evil practices, please go get a land to lend and farm.
Sell your phones and cloth and farm. Forget your ephisy or egho. Farm and in 2years time, you can raise money and food and buy anything you want. By then the country will be stable.

If you are married already and have stupidly littered everywhere with children... yet very jobless
Find a way to raise 500,000, either from your church/islamic Hummar or friends or family members, then mover your wife that can not close her legs and your innocent Children to a village that have no network (remember, no network area) and go fully into farming. Forget any other thing in life, engage your 3children + into full time farming and raere livestock.
In 2years, your children can go back to school! But remember - don't bring any other child to the world again. Control your stupid dick from your wives pit so that you won't bring innocent children to this world again.

This is my Advice, take it or go for sucide which will help our current population and economic because the population is just to much, people give birth to children more than positive production, so sucide will help the Nation. We encourage sucide for the foolish once who need a shortcut to go and rest!

May God bless
President Bola Tinubu

....This is the only way for Nigeria to move forward. We must sacrifice with our blood.

AA. Toxic Advise

Go back to farming
Endure austerity
Suffer till you quench

While your masters in Aso rock
Feast on luxury caviar and champagne
From a small town in Troyes.

O ye beast of burden!
Bear the load till your back is broken
Pray to God; and hope for a better tomorrow

You know you deserve your place
At the feet of the master's table
Scrambling for leftovers and crumbs

It is just another day in a life of misery
Where you're condemned to serve your masters
Till the fat lady sings

Dennisochampa:
Hoebedients will not like this news....
They never like anything tinubu does no matter how good it is.
One thing I Sha know is that hoebi will never rule this country.
Let's join hands to make Nigeria great again.
It's been a difficult first few months of tinubu tenure I know but even the road to heaven is narrow and not easy at all.
With joint efforts and support for the sitting president, 9ja will be on its way to greatness again.

You said this in 2015 when you people voted Buhari; a coup plotter and well-known ethnic jingoist.

This time around its the drug affiliated and morally bankruptTinubu.

You people will learn a lesson

Bliss24:




I just love Shetima's blunt disposition

Best Graduating student of Economics in Prestigious University of Ibadan Citadel of learning......

After 30 years of Graduation

Ended up becoming Deputy Branch Manager at a new generation bank like Polaris bank

30 years after graduation that he should be planing retirement he is a Deputy Manager

His total salary may not be up to 200,000 to 500,000 a month


He made this submission at University of Ibadan to remind student the intricacies of life

PS:
IF you know say e no go better for your papa this morning qoute me to say trash

You idiots stay your lane and don't qoute me if Ogun no go perish your families, keep your useless mob mentality and keyboard war to your unproductive self


.

.

You have displayed the trademark emptiness all Yoruba Ronu gang is known for.

You obviously have no idea what a DGM is in banking

You need urgent psychiatric evaluation!

MT:
The students are simply not being reasonable.

How can you be paying 20k for a session and expect quality education. Is that not ridiculous?

Some average private secondary school pays much more per term. Even in abroad, it is so expensive for their kids to go to University and some students abandon it to learn craft work like plumbing etc. Formal education is not compulsory for everyone, and it is not a determinant to be successful in life.

You expect campuses to have infrastructure and enabling environment, yet you are not ready to fund it.

You are making zero sense.

Small thing you and your ilks start talking of abroad which you actually know nothing about.

With people like you being in the majority in Nigeria, una suffering go still reach the next 100 years

Sharpsharp00123:
God bless u

Same here

Once they have searched your phone n documents n they see u ain’t illegal they will just humbly tell u to find them something

Me n my guys don dey checkpoint before they free us n later hold some guys well well n those guys were begging

This is a very myopic opinion.

However the good thing with people like you is Nigeria will happen to you or your loved ones, sooner or later.

And when it does we will tell you to shut up with your lies.

One mad person up there already termed NLC Igbo and IPOB.

It seems its only Igbos that indeed want progress for this country.

Too many morons on your site Seun!

Alliswell248:
Noise Makers.
Go and find something doing.
Frustration at its peak.

Lol.

Frustration?

Yes, every NORMAL Nigerian is extremely frustrated with the stagnation and reversal in the country's fortunes especially since 2014.

But BATidiôts always think it's politics and everyone against APC is unpatriotic and IPOB.

Won't waste my time replying any trope you mention me with but just know that you will reap what you sow as long as life is concerned.

WorldRichest:
Niger 0.5% unemployment rate, but millions of Niger Republic citizens are begging all over Northern and Southern Nigeria.

Well, maybe they are gainfully employed as Beggars.

Idiots think everyone is also an idiot like them

KPMG and ILO are IPOB too according to BATidiõts

And your parents were jubilating the day you were born

Axis313:
For those juvenile Nigerians supporting the coupists because they hate Tinubu,I pray you guys will soon be deported to Niger to enjoy military government,at least once in your lifetime.
Those of us that experienced military rule during Abacha and Babangida era,won't pray for military junta again.

So why did they not mull military intervention in Mali and Burkinafaso?

Why Niger?

If you don't see that the West and NATO is trying to push the West African sub-region in a protracted war that will ravage it and yield massive profits to the military industrial complex; then you're the juvenile one!

You think everything is politics or PDP vs APC vs LP?

Anyone who offers contrary view to your god just like in the days of Buhari, is a hater and wailer.

You should have enough sense to know that Nigeria will bear the brunt of any useless war right now but will politics allow you see beyond your nose?

What a pity!

ecolime:
If you no pity yourself, pity your parents. You can get locked up for this nonsense you just typed.

You don't need to mention Nigeria until your innuendo is classified as an incitement against the state.

Incitement because he stated an opinion?

Who does his comment threaten or Incite?

It's like the so-called democracy don tire una and you want to go back to being ruled by dictators.

You will have your wish soon.

plumcomm:
speak for your family okay,the shege I'm supposed to face no matter what will be bore by people like you.you don't have to understand that.

Another Yoruba ronu batidiot.

Bore by people like who?

Anyways, you know the actual truth that most Nigerians are suffering but will say and do anything including cutting your nose to spite your face.

plumcomm:
but anambra and enugu roads are anti flood prone.

You think this is a contest for the worst roads in Nigeria?

Besides, you must be new to NL to even contemplate that madridguy is Igbo.

Your hate and vile for Igbos will choke you if you don't repent.

I hope the renewed hopelessness and shege banza is favouring you and your family

Myer:
Your wisdom is divine.
God bless you.

Wisdom in throwing more millions of people into poverty in the poverty capital of the world.

Wisdom in removing all subsidies without any cushion and leaving the common man to wallow in hunger.

Anyway, like Dele Farontimi always says, Nigeria is not a nation and Nigerians are not citizens.

Politicians treat you people worse than slaves and animals but you will always find ways to rationalise your suffering.

At this point I'd rather the judiciary be bought so the suffering can increase a lot more so maybe Nigerians will finally rise up and demand to be treated as human beings and citizens of a state.

Zezco:
The Constitution do not put a must for FCT vote but the 25% vote will be count as state vote, the court can never nullified the whole country vote, Obi and Atiku didn't meet up with criteria to become president, case close. If you know this you know peace.

So because Peter obi win 25% in Abuja make him eligible to be pronounced president without winning upto 24 states is impossible.

Did Tinubu win 24 states?

The Constitution says 25% in 24 states.

Tinubu and Obi both won 25% in 24 states.

Following the recent elections and the fallout of it, I have decided to sell a few plots of land I own in an estate just 20 minutes from Berger outward Lagos.

Asking price is 2m Naira.

Name of estate is Sky Garden City.

Mention me for more details if interested.

Thank you.

If you read in between the lines, you'd notice that this is an open rebuttal to the COAS' (General Lagbaja) statement a few days ago about how the so-called amnesty worsened the security crisis up north.

Pulaaku or whatever name or form it takes is simply another attempt to reward northern terrorists with lush security contracts like what happened with the Niger Delta.

It's a shame that Shettima is propsing soft landing for terrorists that have maimed and killed thousands of Nigerians.

Brethren, if you're still in your early 30s and below, do everything within your power to leave Nigeria.

It's a very unserious country.

airsaylongcome:
Swerve commot here. If u dey suffer no carry your suffer come dey talk for my front. I'm not suffering and that's on period

Lol.

You think it's about you?

I'm speaking for the 100million Nigeirans that have been thrown into multidimensional poverty in the last decade.

Obviously you're high on whatever you think you are but I assure you, Nigeria will happen to you soon and you will have no one to speak for you, by the name of the Lord I serve!

Your statement epitomises the average Nigerian - as long as I'm fine others can go to hell.

A very immature, myopic, uncivilised and hobesian state of mind.

You're lower than the lowest species of homo sapiens!

I will not bother reading whatever tripe you respond with, you're not worthy of one more second of my time.

airsaylongcome:
TBH, it's sad reading all the obidients responses of negativity here. While I did not vote for Jaga on February 25, I would no categorize myself as an Obidient. Primarily because the massive "attacks" coming from that camp is not something I identify with. It's Okay to be opposed to BAT, but resorting to insults and social media intimidation will not get us the results we need, which is a better Nigeria for all of us long suffering Nigerians. I'm in full support of the tribunal and all other legal means challenging the Tinubu election. But I'm also in full support of any decision by the FG that will ultimately result in the betterment of our lot.

I'm also not in support of the several "attacks" from "On your mandate we shall stand" folks. EU gave a scathing report of our 2023 elections and you all are denigrating the EU because the report doesn't portray your principal in good light. With BAT being una to secure over 50% of the voting electorate, it says a lot about his nationwide acceptance. It would be better if the "Mandate standers" use diplomacy to win over doubters rather than slamming every criticism they get

BoA has given its analysis of our financial prospects. The incumbent administration needs to focus on minimising the negative impacts of its decisions, and ensure that economic policies that are favourable to us, common Nigerians, are what is paramount in whatever decision they make.

We have suffered to much as a people for anyone of us to continue to wish us bad luck.

God continually bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria. It's the only place I know as home

People are suffering immensely and impoverished and you're bothered about negativity by an inconsequential few on social media?

My friend go outside and touch grass.

landmark86:
Funny country
Citizens with greediness
Oral B that I bought #650 last month was sold to me #750 last week

You think it's "greediness" ehn.

You will buy it 2000, languish in poverty and still find a way to blame "greedy Igbo traders".

Your suffering is just warming up

Whatever you quote me to say, I won't even read it so don't waste your time

sweetgala:
I didn't intent to state that "only" lettered employees stand to represent a company such as that. But from experience given I also work for a sector leading multinational Tech company on the same scale as AWS I can tell you with experience that they are so cautious of legal repercussions, investor confidence that they'll rarely send a lower level employee who's not in legal or corporate governance. The consequences of a misplaced statement can be financially important.

You didn't intend to but did.

You're all over the place claiming nigh certainty that the lady has done wrong, even alluding she'll be arrested when she's back in the US.

Look, you're being clever by half. We know who you are mr agbado!

This is my last reply to you.

sweetgala:
No ! the lady expressly said when being cross examined that she was not representing her employers, and that AWS did not receive a supena from LP. She is representing herself and only claims to bring a professional opinion which has now been called into question.

Such companies like AWS don't necessarily have to send a member of their legal team but the often do send someone from legal , corporate governance or middle management because there are consequences for actions taken under oath.
These are companies that have shareholders and could loose investor confidence if not managed correctly. I'm certain AWS are keeping an eye on this case and would put this supposed employee through HR disciplinary

Yes but your initial statement was a hard stand that only lettered employees can stand as witness for an organisation.

That's the only statement I disputed.

I've not been following the intricate details of the tribunal however, it's highly improbable and unlikely that she did not obtain clearance from her employer's legal and compliance departments before appearing on that stand.

sweetgala:
No you can not stand as a witness on behalf of an organization without the express permission of said organisations.
Remember this is not a whistle blower and this is not an executive formed tribunal.
This is a court of law whose decisions are binding in life or in death.

Of course it's with the organisation's permission.

So again, you were wrong in saying only empoyees in the legal department can stand as witness for an organisation in a lawsuit.

Throwback:
This was one case that the intelligence community in Nigeria already told the Buhari Government to desist from, that the funds was for covert operations.

I also don't recall that the head of the NIA was found to have used the funds for personal accumulation of wealth/assets that was reported by anyone or EFCC itself.

A committee headed by the VP recommended him for dismissal and prosecution and you're trying to imply he was innocent?

Why not got find out the content of the committee's report?

sweetgala:
AWS would never I repeat never release data directly unless the court writes to its legal department. This obidient engineer obviously took data on a thumb drive etc and provided it to LP. This so called Engineer would be sacked for one.

If AWS wants to present data to a court they'll elect a member of their legal team to do so, ifust be a technical staff the individual would be in middle management.

What is worse for their reputation is companies who host with them to believe their company data can be easily leaked to public.

You are wrong.

An ordinary employee can stand as a witness on behalf An organisation, depending on the type of matter at hand.

NB: It's not something to argue about.
