ValCon888:
These are needless, unnecessary deaths. The FRSC has to make it compulsory for trucks to secure cargo with harnesses as its done in a sane society.

The government should also pass legislation making it a criminal offense for heavy-duty trucks to carry cargo without adequately securing the truck bed.

These are the types of law the government should pass but they're busy trying to ban social media and sports betting that's the only hope of the common man.

The law exists. This is a collision accident, it says so in the very first line of the article. Even in the USA, thousands die yearly to truck accidents. Every happening in the country should not be an indictment on the government.

Make God dey help person o. Na wetin I first think you type so. How these two go rob me? Them go regret say them cross my path.

Westerhoffe:
As the Nigerian Government would have reacted, I condemn the act of the woman and her husband...and let it end there.

The man even has a good business brain… he just didn't have enough money to put it to effect.

Well, let him repay it from the proceeds of his businesses.

This is a criminal case, not a civil case. He can't pay from the proceeds of any business. He and his wife are headed for prison.

People wey never sort their own country dey form experts on top Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso matter.

As you dey hustle, dey hustle Ransom money o (if you are lucky enough to be alive after the attack).

Sokari29:
I laugh you with this your statement... they will soon start doing better than Nigeria b deceiving yourself that we are the giant of Africa.. eyes go soon clear say we dey in deep shit una government wan go or Dan go borrow money again.. yet they will still loot half of this money n so it will continue until something like what transpired in Mali will happen over here.... Remember they removed corrupt old politicians and the old n corrupt members of d ECOWAS wasn't happy. Go n make ur research n u will find out all d sitting presidents of the current ECOWAS members are above 70 years and when they talk they talk slow n don't forget as u get old so does ur body system due else companies won't require old workers to retire but in Africa u need to b 80 years to b a president.

They will not loot half of the loan. Stop misinforming people. The will loot 90% of the money!

Disinformation and Misinformation; extremely powerful tools in the 21st century.

The below might help though.

https://people.com/biden-white-house-rejects-putin-endorsement-8583035

Thanks for the link. It puts more body to it. It's however still more misinformation (not an indictment of you but of western media). Putin is not endorsing Biden as this paper adds to it's heading. Putin is rather seeing Biden as a weaker president that Russia doesn't fear because he's 'old skool' and 'predictable'. The western media however twists it to mean Biden is 'best for America's

In the context of Russia vs USA rivalry, Putin will never endorse a candidate that undermines or is capable at least to undermine the reputation of Russia.

Good morning.

IMAliyu:
Only northern China gets snow.
China is also on a different latitude to Nigeria.
We are basically on the equator.

Meaning we will always experience far more sun and heat, compared to them.

Nigeria is NOT on the Equator. If you go quote person, quite with correct information. Thank you.

babyboy4every1:
Abeg say it as putin put it. Why did you removed the " he's predicatable" from his statement? He said biden is predictable and experience. And we all know what that means

99% of nairalanders have very low mental capacity. It's often easy to feed them with propaganda. That's why the entire forum reeks of petty bigotry and idiocy. Don't expect that the correct wordings will be put. They know most nairalanders don't know their right from their left.

This is how they confuse you. Instead of posting the entire conversation, they pick their own interpretation of half a statement and post as the entire news. Look at the body of that 'article'. No quotations to show the exact words of Putin. Nothing to indicate what the conversation is about or what Putin responded to. No source as to where and when he said so that people may verify and get context.

They don't open people's head to put propaganda Inside o. Many times, they just give you half or sometimes outrightly wrong information and allow you spread it like wild fire

No long story. Na season. We no plenty reach china, yet them dey get snow.

cowboyT:
On a free day, 5wraps since its small size, but if I'm seriously hungry just like this afternoon, I won't raise my head until 8 is out.

So you go just dey swallow until 8 lost?

coputa:
Even at that, won't they be given notice before destroying their source of livelihood

In no state will taskforce go out like this without warnings. The people will often turn deaf ears to government pleas and warnings. When government then acts, they'll be sponsoring different publications for public sympathy and political blackmail.

Kaybaba5:
This is barbaric

What is? Do you really believe that no notice or warnings were given for these people to leave the road? Why should the state pamper people outrightly flouting the laws of the state?

callthefred:
Looks like all these economists are very terrible administrators. They don't understand how to lead well at all. Soludo and BAT governing without pity. This particular agency has been a pain for Anambra people yet Soludo keeps defending their madness.

must people put their wares in the road?

Nonsense...I can bet they've all received several warnings to move their wares to more appropriate places. They'll never do that. They'll never report on the notices given by the government.

Any government that wants to make any impact in this country must ruffle feather. If no t, the status quo will remain. A lot of Nigerians survive on illegality. When the government tries to take a stand against such, it definitely must affect people.

The question is should government fold it's hand and allow these illegalities carry on? If it does, the people would say the government did nothing. If the government does act, propaganda reports against government and it's agencies like this will be flying up and down.

This is not to say the government or it's actors are perfect, government cannot be all bad.

judedwriter:
The ivory coast were lucky last Sunday in the sense that the super eagles played a defensive game. Man to man the super eagles are more gifted than the CIV

Man. The stats show otherwise. Below are the stats from both matches we played. Ivory coast dominated in both games. We used the same lineup, formation and tactics, they changed their attacking line in the second game to favor people like Adingra Haller and Gradel that can turn their dominance to victory. In the first game, our only shot on target was from the penalty spot! To show it wasn't a fluke, in the final too, we only had one shot on target. The stats can do the telling...if they don't, shalom.

judedwriter:
Rethink your sarcasm...

Ivory coast were lucky to be champions and it shows by their ranking.

It has been explained up. Before the nations cup, ivory coast was 8 in Africa now they are 3rd. Winning one tournament does not automatically put you on top. It takes consistent accumulation of points.

Talking about luck.vhiw can a team that dominated in every match except one in which they received a red card in the first half be considered lucky? Even in the match they lost by 4 goals you'd expect that they didn't play at all. Alas in that match they had a 68% ball possession. Their previous coach didn't know the right set of attackers to use that's why they weren't scoring. In the match Nigeria won them 1-0 they had a ball possession of around 63% Nigeria had one shot on target from the penalty spot and still won. (That's what the Nigerian coach even banked on in the final, using the same lineup and tactics, thinking by scoring 1 again he can run away with it). The difference however is that Haller Adingra and Gradel didn't play in the 1-0 loss. If a y team was lucky, it was Nigeria. The only time we dominated a game was against equatorial guinea when we used an actual midfield tri of yusuf, iwobi and Onyeka. Yet we didn't even win that game. Once Calvin basset replaced Yusuf we depended on long balls, find one goal and sit on it (except of course against Cameroon another terrible team in this competition where we manged 2 goals).

Look at the stats bellow and tell me how ivory coast was winning by luck. (I didn't put the Mali match because they were red carded in the 1st half).

judedwriter:
So upon all the gra-gra of both the ivory coast players and thousands of their fans last Sunday, we are higher than them and they are ranked 39th by fifa??

This cup was poised for Nigeria's taking but sadly we missed it.

Go use your position collect cup from them.

Jayhome24:
Before nko Ivory won does not mean they played better football although I don't care about ranking nonsense but the truth is Ivory Coast played no football in this last tournament they are just lucky and their yeye superstition that mistakenly favoured them that is all.

Lol...even when they lost 4-0, they outplayed equatorial guinea. Unfortunately they were using the wrong set of attackers in the group stage. The only team to win ball possession from ivory coast was Mali and it was understandable because Ivory coast went a man dow in the 39th minute. No other team came close. Not even Senegal. Ivory coast may have not had good results in the second and third group stage game, in terms of actually playing the game, no team came close to them.

Idiotic element trolling Nigerians.

blackmantis:
Ekong yes
Lookman yes

Aina?

Yes. Adingra bested him in the final but in all games before the finals, he was always in contention for man of the match.

Geekop:
Imagine Aina is in the list and most people complained about him forgetting that we were praising him from the very first match. His only mistake was in the final.
Make we try dey appreciate these guys.

I was also thinking this Adingra guy would be in the list.
Nice one though.

Adingra, Haller, Gradel didn't play in the matches they lost. If any of featured at all, it was off the bench. Their previous coach (group stage) didn't favour them.

Maobichek:
2024 will be worst compared to 2023 and 2024 will be better than 2025!!! This is not good at all, please say something good, be positive about Nigeria. This is not about politics of APC, PDP or LP.

I wish saying that garri will be 100# per paint can make it as that. Unfortunately it can't. Let's however deal with the facts. How many everyday commodity still has the same price as it was in 2023? I can't think of any let alone many.

Do you honestly believe that I'm 2025, the prices will remain the same as it is today or even reduce? Be honest with yourself even in your optimism. I don't hate Nigeria. I have children and wish them well.

I have mentioned it before it will be difficult for there to be a revolution in this country because there are many like you who genuinely believe 'speaking positive' about a truly negative situation. Before you were birthed 'e go better' has been a thing, let us pray for this country has been a thing. The economic stats and realities however shows something antithetical to that.

The economy has become harder on the average man day after day, year after year. If you truly care about this country, you won't be admonishing me to speak positively. You'd be charging me to come out and protest.

ikennaoma:
where was ashola when Uzoho was bullied... people should understand that football is different from movies.. Football fans are passionate about it..just imagine What ONANA is going through now..that's the beauty of football. if the team win everyone is happy but if we loose one person must take the heat... imagine what would have happened to aina if South Africa won us... that's football for you.

Simple. If a team plays well, everyone celebrates them. If they don't, they receive the frustrations of the fans.

If we truly love these footballers, and super eagles as our national team, we must be able to tell ourselves the truth.

1. The coach's tactics hindered any form of midfield creativity.

2. Our midfielders are 'very very' average if not below average.

Our midfielders can never make five consecutive passes in the opposition half wetin no good no good.

3. Way before the finals, some people have been saying it that our midfield and especially Iwobi weren't doing the needful and this was while we were winning. So it's not only because lost that iwobi and the team is getting criticized.

Before the AFCON, we played miserably in the world cup qualifiers and the friendly just before the competition. While we might have reached the finals, this team still has a lot of deficiencies. The midfield play especially is an eyesore. Pretending that all is well will not help us qualify for the world cup. What needs to be said has to be said.
