Rule 2 and 3 broken. Seun, Mynd44, Fergie001

aariwa:
Why the fixation on Peter Obi? You are no longer supporting the perpetual mandate thief holder of Guinness book of records for abysmal failure… you are wasting your time o as obidients don’t care about your opinion because they abhor people who celebrate failure and poverty and call it success

LastGiantAlive:
Nigeria has no territorial integrity

tundegan:
Peter Obi is a good guy. I like him.

But he should just fold up and go back to his business.

Bintasukai:
Igbos act like Hitler and his aryan race. So great, so pure so wonderful. And those other guys, so based, so dirty, so stupid, beneath us. But those based stupid guys are wearing them like pant politically.

Realtruth2023:
Please show the statistics of the igbos that hate Nigeria. You guys just wake up and utter rubbish. You people really need to be beaten 24 lashes every morning until you have sense.
How can a so called adult be this stupid as you.

Raf4:
They are both hateful and bitter. That's how they are born and raised.
Someone (PWS) who supported, defended and was jailed for the cause of their biafra celebrated his 90th birthday recently and they were all raining insults on him. GYG who ended the war,
accpted and reintegrate them back is celebrating his 90th birthday now and they're showing the same hatred. Are they the only people on earth?

Burruchaga71:
Tinubu is a drug lord and a forger

Franking:
Go ahead and value your nonsense own.

Joshcoli:
If Obi or Atiku were in charge right now and we were suffering like this, you'd be tearing them apart, calling them out for every failure. Yet here you are, blindly defending a government that's crushing people, destroying businesses, and suffocating any chance of productivity in the name of reforms. How can you live with yourself? It's like you've sold your soul to the filth of tribalism, completely abandoning the truth.

Nigerians only wants a good life

Lavor234:
So with the fuel subsidy we were getting trillions in FDIs. Nigeria became a tech hub, the biggest market for GSM IN Africa.

So u are saying that fuel subsidy had to be removed so that everything could be destroyed.
True true una no well.

FourQu:

Dont get fooled, reforms that erodes purchasing power, strangulate businesses and worsen the currency value thats surely not a reform. it is draconian policies

it is not about the years, a reforms should read "growth" and must reflect no matter how small.

Tinubu is foolishly pushing a world bank reform that is projected to materialize only after 15yrs, does it mean tinubu is not aware max he can only spend 8yrs .. what happens when another govt comes on board and do otherwise

So our sacrifice for 4 or 8yrs under Tinubu will just go like that, Dubai developed before our very eye, was there hardship, did business have to die before Dubia rose.

Economic theories should be implored in accordance with each country peculiarity

stuffs2002:
You must be talking about a different China that no one knows about. No country in this planet that the development grew exponentially in a few years. Your hatred for your president is making you see things that are not real.

helinues:
Our heritage which we are proud of

Resurrection212:
Forget money I still have money I can take out buy whatever I need. Go to major joint there are empty I'm not talking of carrying sex workers go home Bleep...

@OP, I know exactly how you feel. Really sorry about your ordeal but gambling is a dangerous addiction that may even be worse than alcoholism or pornography.

It will lead you to all manner of immorality just to cover up for your losses and the drive to chase your losses. You will lie, steal, become desperate, anxious, restless and you will even crave solitude more than anything else. It will strain your relationships and degrade your level of attention to more relevant things because all you will be thinking of is how to bet or recoup your lost bets.

Donating money for you isn't the solution now. Cos whatever you get, you will still bet. No matter how much you deceive yourself that you won't.

Now, read the following carefully;

1. Tell your mother what has happened. What's the worst than can happen? She would prefer to bear the loss of money than bear your demise if you kill yourself. You will be scolded and might be insulted. That's okay, you deserve it after all.

2. Write on a piece of paper or type these words on a piece of paper and paste in your room or on a book you use regularly. "Gambling will not make me rich, instead it will impoverish and destroy me. Make sure it is visible for you to see everyday.

3. Close all your online betting account. It's the fastest way to depression. If you cannot close it, call their customer care to help you disable the account.

4. Find an accountability partner. Find someone who you know can hold you accountable and to whom you are willing to be accountable to. Might be your mum but preferably a sibling, a close friend or your girlfriend. The person must be a serious minded person who cares about you and who is also not struggling with gambling addiction. If they are trustworthy enough, save your money with them going forward. Never be too confident that today's experience has taught you enough lesson. It's a lie. You cannot manage your own finances for now.

5. Avoid visiting bet shops for any reason. Whether it is to go and charge or watch football or see a friend or just to watch others betting. Please avoid it by all means necessary. Liken it to a slaughterhouse where ritualists slaughter humans. Well so, because gambling will kill you eventually.

6. Your life is worth way more than N960k.
Will you suffer for your actions? Yes.
Will you suffer forever? No.
Learn from this mistake and gather yourself together. Start an aggressive saving culture from 100 naira to as much as you can. Deprive yourself of any unnecessary indulgence or enjoyment. You actually do not deserve it after this loss. Let that be your penance. Save, save, save and save. Go out and get busy; an idle mind is the devil's workshop. Hustle as if your mum is in a life threatening condition in the hospital and you were asked to raise some money for her surgery (God forbid that). I'm sure you'd do anything legal to find that money...... Yeah, hustle with that type of mindset. Your life depends on it.

7. I am writing this as someone who has experienced firsthand the destruction and havoc gambling have wrecked in people's lives; from established businessmen in the East to bankers in the West and students in the South South. I have seen it all while I volunteered for GambleAlert. Marriages have broken, jobs lost, businesses ruined, trust eroded, relationships wasted, talents destroyed, lives wasted just because of gambling. Trust me, it's as destructive as drug addiction. I hope one day I will be able to write a book on it.

8. Do not think you can break free in one day. Like every addiction, it takes a gradual process to break free. Too bad we have more bet shops and betting ambassadors than we have betting addiction support groups in Nigeria. You will be tempted to return especially when you remember your losses. You will see yourself starting with small amounts thinking you can control your spending limits but gradually, you will find yourself doing big numbers again. My advise in this regard is that if you are not using your smartphone to earn money, do away with it for now. Use a small phone for communication, at least for 3 months. Whenever you are thinking of betting, think of how it has ruined lives and I mean promising lives. No one gets rich by gambling. The betting companies are not philanthropic organisations.

9. Finally, my bro, I am guessing you reside in the SouthEast. From my experience with GambleAlert, the S/E is the most burdened with this social menace. You'd see businessmen once doing well suddenly became paupers because of addictive gambling. Please run o my brother.

Gambling has and will continue to ruin many lives. When I am more settled, I intend to push forward an NGO that will fight for heavy regulation of gambling in Nigeria.

Obaaderemi2:
First things first: who did you support in the last presidential election?

Ikaeniyan0:
Obidients will be depress when they see this news

EmperorCaesar:


But, our resident wailers claimed that all Multinationals are exiting the country and even advised local investors to "invest in Nigeria at their own risk"

In the end, Reno Omokri is right about those Economic developmental indices and those stats are right

2027 loos very massive

mozona:
Are they trying to tell us that the Yoruba in Lagos are not literate enough to understand what is written in English language.

Shadomaan7:
Good. We are moving in the right direction

WannaHowzit:
Wow, dating Nigerian men is really a taboo in SA. See how seriously these professional SA women took it as an insult to them. Well, outcomes of greed, fraud and a dire lack of conscience 🇳🇬😢

ALTERNATEID:
There is a reason the world bank guy said we should stay true to the ongoing reform for at least 15 years.

You guys simplify our economic challenges by thinking just two weeks of decline in PMS import will automatically result in Naira stability. It’s not that quick and easy. We need to remain consistent for at least a year before we can start counting the impact of the forex savings on our local currency. There is no shortcut to any of these things. It takes time and consistency for result to start showing.
