Eriokanmi: Hope they didn't say, awa lokan and voted along that line before they left the country. Now I'm beginning to really learn of leadership.
Leadership is divinely orchestrated. You don't struggle for it else, you'd mess things up. Of all the leaders known in this country, only tinubu grabbed power by hook and crook. Even when Buhari was so desperate, he never got it until he willingly surrendered and left the space.
From 1960 to date, none who ruled Nigeria got to power desperately and the history has shown and I'd start from the most recent cos of some indomie generation here. Buhari was called to lead Nigeria after the successful coup in which he never participated. Babangida, same. It was obj who said those who participated in the coup should consider IBB for the position. This is a fact not known to many, till now.
Chief Earnest Shonekan never dreamt of becoming an interim president.
Abahca too never knew it could be his turn. Those who persuaded shonekan to step down in line with their agreement was led by Gen Diya, not even abacha cos he wasn't in good terms with IBB.
Abdulsalaam Abubakar never thought of being head of state. There were senior officers before him who could have filled that space but he was picked and his promotion was doubled, as a prerequisite to being head of state before he became Nigerian leader.
Obj was picked from the prison, he had thought he'd be executed by abacha when IBB boys did the needful and he was released . The rest was history.
What of Jonathan?
...and Yaradua?
None of those mentioned above bought their ways into power. When you force yourself in a position where God didn't put you, you should experience things like this. Only God appoints leaders, irrespective of religion or ethnicity.
If tinubu scales the hurdle of the judiciary eventually, he'd manage to lead Nigeria for 4 years but people should brace up for the unexpected. This isn't a curse. We're all seeing the realities. A Pounds sterling don pas 1,000 naira now.
RTID: Okay, this is crazy. I was with my friend yesterday and he told me a very shocking true life story. A particular Yahoo boy went to plus up his Yahoo. Babalawo tell am say make him sleep with 25 women for the whole thing to be successful. “I will advice you to sleep with 50 ladies at least, because many of these women have been used.”, the babalawo said.
This guy went to book a lodge & stayed there for about 2 months. All he was doing was sleeping with different women. He slept with over 120 women & went back to the baba. 120 women!!? Quite shocking right? Now, here's the most shocking part of it.
The babalawo told him that out of over 120 girls that he slept with, only 8 have not been used. The rest of them have been used by someone else. Ahhh! This is crazy. I was traumatized when I heard this story. Things are happening.
So many thoughts came through my mind. This is just one of the many reasons why we should flee from sexual immorality.
Only a myopic person will not believe the reality in this story whether the story is true or false.
thesilentman: This story is real.The yahoo boy confessed at church revival service.This is one of the major reasons i prefer to cheat with a decent married woman to the average Nigerian girl.
Nsogbu001: I think is very bad for the first lady of a country to threaten a particular tribe. Must everyone support Tinubu. This should be investigated biko
FreeStuffsNG: Money is everywhere in Nigeria but you focus on the negatives, curse the land which in turn withholds its blessings from you. In this land, if you are not winning, you are losing. You are losing does not mean that other Nigerians are losing.
It is not a coincidence that the region that keeps raising uncouth youths and unpatriotic elements who curse Nigeria are losing perenially everywhere home and abroad. They always lose all las las unless they start blessing Nigeria. It is a settled fact; you curse Nigeria, Nigeria curses you back!
Nigerians making it big legitimately don't waste their time on Nairaland and Social media cursing their land, cyberbullying and insulting people upandan Get one thing right about success: FOCUS
Don't be deceived bro, confessing positively is good but does not automatically translate to success.
There must be an enabling ground for people to succeed and not just selected few.
He was indeed possessed by a demonic totalitarian spirit.
No true demicatically elected president will do what Tinubu did.
To think that in 2012 he was against the removal in one swoop.
These were Tinubu exact words in 2012 when Jonathan tried to remove subsidy.
"It must be on calibrated phrases, on which the promised gains are mea- sured and confirmed before moving to the next phase of removal.
Government must modify the sudden and complete removal of the subsidy. Elther we restore the subsidy or use the funds for other social purposes,"
If we are to use the funds for other programmes, these programmes shall be placed on parallel track with the subsidy."
Tinubu counselled in a special statement he cap- tioned, "Removal of oil subsidy-Presi dent Jonathan breaks social contract with the people' and which he personally signed. So indeed he was possessed by a demon for him to do the exact opposite of what he advised.
StagethemTVee: Here is a feature on how Tony Elumelu moved from being a copier salesman to becoming the youngest bank manager of All States Trust bank , bought an ailing Crystal bank and led one of the most successful bank mergers to become a billionaire.
Viq2orh: May we not birth a child who will decides to sacrifice his integrity, dignity and prestige for another man, by implication of fake promise of an appointment, therefore becoming a nuisance to the society.
A RESOUNDING AMEN.
Keyamo is a hungry desperate man who fails to understand that a good name is better than silver and gold.
How i wish he silently enjoyed his time with APC like Fashola and other reasonable people are doing.
Dimaya: In a controversial discussion, a young lady named Bamisaye says after getting married to her boyfriend, she won't get pregnant until he earns above 200K.
How practical is this in Nigeria considering the fact that most people today earn less than 100K?
kay29000: If you watch this full 14 minutes interview and still believe the girl really got 362, I don't know what to say to you. The evidence of forgery is very clear. What I will say is that, the girl didn't carry out this act by herself.
Honestly, I am gobsmacked.
Could it be that someone really forged it for her?
BucketMan: A good gesture, however, the student in question seems to be guilty of the allegations given the weight of the evidence tendered against her, however she remains innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. I also don't think an established Agency like JAMB will make unfounded, bogus and unverifiable assumptions on this matter, what do they stand to gain?
Rewarding her further instead of waiting for investigations to be concluded is outright stupidity and should not be lauded.
TemplarLandry: Like I said earlier, foreign blocs like European Union should desist from pokenosing into our internal affairs. We no longer need your loans. You want to criticize us, do it constructively.
The last elections were free and fair compared to previous ones, only glitch was the real-time upload some people have been whining about.
kernniejay: Why are those people in the photos still hailing Tinubu despite that they are buying fuel at N540 per litre and experiencing multi-dimentional poverty? I don't know why africans are so stupid. Why can't people sit in their houses or stay wherever they are when this inhumane leaders are driving by so that they can feel how hated they are by the people? Anyway, poverty is at work so they may be expecting him to throw naira notes into the air for them to catch. In developed countries, any leader that the people are not happy with are either stoned with eggs or are booed to shame in the public, but here we hail them and give them the wrong notion that they are the best thing ever happened to us. It seems like the more Nigerians suffer, the better they feel.
Adeshi: At first i thought it was stress, but yesterday, i was home throughout and it happened again. This is like the 4th time this year. I'm really concerned and i do not mind any advice as to what could cure the problem. I called a friend of mine this morning to request to see a urologist, he said i might have to wait 2-3 months to see one.
I do not want to wait another 2 months, my marriage is just 2years and my wife is starting to worry too.
A 34 years old married man still betwets. I need help please.
Get an absorbent pant and wear it to bed while you look for a cure.
I hate condom with a passion yet I love my life so well.
If a man wan sleep with more than one woman at least get like 2 or 3 regular and limit your chance of contracting std or randomly impregnating ladies like an irresponsible fellow.
I honestly don't get it... I understand guys like it raw and many girls too but I don't understand why a man will be risking his health and that of his "wife" by sleeping around randomly.
If you must sleep around at least protect yourself.
