All staged.

Why would his stylist be that poised? How many of such occurrence have you seen happen on stage? Except of course the jacket belongs to the stylist, in which case he still wouldn't stop the act in that moment, as he would just demand for a replacement after the show.

Staged!

dupyshoo:
How did you come to the conclusion that his usual comment regarding "rent money as dead money" is pushing some people to see themselves as failures? Evidence on the property forum says otherwise

beats my imagination too ooo. Very very funny set of people na im some Naija people be.

deept:
this is not fair. Also to tell us the truth irrespective

don't mind these simplistic people. Look at all the supposed accusations thrown at Lexus, most of which are solid advise to same minds o.

Anyone who has a different view from the simplistic mob is tagged the enemy. Just as some such as myself have been tagged anti-japa onto say I see things differently.

Who amongst you Lexus force his advice on?? Where is the bullying? These guys ehn

sukkot:
Chief, I feel very sorry for Ngannou, he bit more than he could chew. I don’t even know the way forward for him again, I don’t think he has a future in boxing and the ufc again. Make baba go explore acting. He has the physique to play African kings in these Hollywood blockbuster movies

Omo AJ didn't come to play at all. I must really commend him and his new coach. The difference between this AJ and the AJ I thought was coming to this fight is clear.

sukkot:
Chief, Ngannou got destroyed like I said he would 😄

yes o....you called it right. Even Fury sef was pained that Omo this guy did it far far better. Big kudos to AJ! Def got his confidence and groove back

otipoju:
Brotherly. How far??

You see say elite boxing no be child's play.

Powerful Ngannou no see one punch. But him chop three better right come sleep like bag of beans.

Abeg quote me abeg.

you talk am. You called it right. Wow.

Even Fury sef was pained that Omo this guy did it far far better. Big kudos to AJ! Def got his confidence and groove back

sukkot:
it must prosper by fire by force 😄. Your boy Ngannou about to get his teeth knocked out tonight by Anthony Joshua 👀🙋🏽‍♂️

AJ is our home boy, but Ngannou wins this one.

otipoju:
Error. Joshua has over 30 boxing fights, 27 wins, 24 by knockout . 3 losses. 2 were by points against a more seasoned veteran in Usyk. His first loss was a Technical Knockout standing on his feet from a back of head blow by Ruiz...when he was already dealing with a concussion from sparring in training.

Joshua has never been counted out on the floor. No where.

Ngannou has fought one boxing match against a pillow fisted Fury. How are you expecting to see him knocked out. Person wey no dey enter water fit drown?

Stop embarrassing yourself brother. Na reasonable men you dey follow talk.

I'll quote this your 'analysis' again later on.

otipoju:
Illusion. Show me one instance where Joshua was hit on this so called glass chin and he was knocked out.

The only time he lost to a TKO, he was standing on his feet and it was the ref whonruled him out sue to the concussion from the dirty blow from Ruiz to the back of the head.

I'll wait for you. Show me one single example from all his fights.

I have seen Joshua on his ass many times, yet to see Ngannou on his. It's just a few hours left, let's revisit this after the fight.

My prediction: The fight won't go the full 10rounds cos Ngannou KOs Joshua.

otipoju:
Joshua will beat him silly. Fury is a pillow fisted fighter and Joshua is a brawler.

Because Joshua get fine boy face and gentle spirit, una like to dey underrate him.

Ngannou lost 2 out of 12 MMA fights. He also lost to Fury in boxing making 3 out of 13 professional fights. He is not invincible.


That is how yall hyped Wilder until he believed hid own hype and met real boxers that humbled him quick.

Joshua has been through fire and he is no softie. He will beat Ngannou well well today.

Joshua has a glass chin. Sadly, Ngannou wins.

. Unlike the stomach, the head dsnt complain when it's empty until you open your mouth.
The write up clearly states the car make n model

unfortunately for you, you're the ignorant one in this instance the report was incorrect, cos that car is clearly Honda Accord 2015-2017 like he said. That he could identify it with the specificity that he did, should have made you pause for a second before rushing to type the vile words you typed.

Ps: Anyone wey sabi cars go know in an instant what car that is. No be even say na difficult thing to do. You wey no sabi come still dey throw insults.

sukkot:
their money spends like the dollar though. Like a t shirt could cost you 20 dollars in Egypt. That’s 40 thousand Naira. So it’s not as simple as you guys try to make it out

you already contradicted yourself bros and strengthened my assertion. Their money 'spends' like the dollar, meaning their earning also spends like the dollar..which means this their drop to 50:1 is still far far far far more manageable than our 1600+:1, cos it means it still has far more value, and they would still be able to manage their situation well UNLIKE us who are very close to spending as much as westerners while not earning anything close to westerners. Catch my drift bro?

sukkot:
Say what now ?

50 Egyptian pound to a dollar na im dem dey complain.

Try NGN1600+ to a dollar

Still on floatation principle isonu.. Awon adagba ma danu, awon agun ma niye!

Of course SA is now the biggest. I said that since last year on the below thread. Painful part is we aren't reclaiming that position anytime soon. This quoted figure is from around Sep/Oct last year. Our financial position as at today in dollar terms is certainly under $300b!

https://www.nairaland.com/7923805/nigeria-gdp-drops-500b-290b

I can see the APC pro-bono spokesman freestuffsng viewing🤣. Just a paper loss right? Sukkot, bro see how Tinubu just rubbish our collective productivity. Me wey dey use our GDP brag for travel thread arguments in 2022, sadly I no get mouth again. Darn shame really.

Really? Where are the cows (In the drooling voice of Tinubu)??

heroshark:
You be thief 😅😅😅🤣 (in a friendly non-offensive sense of the word)

High-risk investment dey average 8-15% ROI per year and you are looking for a low risk investment with 365% ROI per annum?


If such exists people no need to dey work naa. Just investment £50k and make £500 quid daily. Even bank no go dey give you mortgage at less than 5% interest rate

I don laff tire 🤣🤣🤣

A whole 1% daily. Bro's looking for low risk, super duper hyper rewards.

You can only get those kind of profits on equally super duper hyper high risk investments.

Lest I forget, feel free to add the things they are getting right, IF ANY.

3 years have now passed, and apparently this calamitous regime has sunk the country even far lower than I predicted.

In 2026, it is no loner safe to go to work, or to go to school. Banditry/kidnapping is a full-fledged and bustling industry. Poverty and despondency has deepened. Gargatuan level of borrowing with nothing to show despite fuel, electricity, and education subsidies removed. We warned you that 8 years of the APC is enough indication that they are a cancer, but most of you did not heed, are are still barreling down the path of destruction even now.

Who will save you from them, or yourself? No one! You have foolishly gifted a megalomaniac power, and now you are ruined, utterly ruined. There is no reason for me to continue to provide updates on this space, when almost everything forecasted has already happened. Make everybody dey their dey and answer their papa name till 2031. Whatever una see, take am laidat.

Today makes 1 year that the calamitous regime took power, and I am happy that on all these points, I have been totally vindicated 💯


1. Returning APC to power, after the colossal failure of the 8 year Buhari administration, from same APC.

Forget the innuendos of the brain dead vulture griller and it's 'darling daddy' drab lines courtesy 'dem manna', this is one rabbit hole I didn't expect even 500000 people to fall into. After what Buhari did to Nigeria, why would any right-thinking person want to entrust/reward the APC with power again? When you reward incompetence so consistently, you embolden it and institutionalise it, as is the case today, yesterday, and possibly evermore..(cos I don't know what the hell these people are smoking). The right thing is the APC should not have been rewarded for failure. Even if I supported Obi and he lost, i would have been proud of Nigerians if they had voted Monkey party, worm party, just about any party but the disaster called the APC

2. Fuel Subsidy and Naira Float misadventure

I sell cars, and in January I sold the last V6 vehicle I had in stock, I also purchased 500l of fuel for keeps (which lasted me till October thankfully). I did all that because I expected and support the idea of fuel subsidy removal. What I did not expect, was Bola Thubv would win and repeat the same mistakes that Buhari/Emefiele made on a more disastrous scale. In 2015, Buhari took the equally 'bold' step to remove subsidy. Fast forward to second qtr 2016, he also foolishly decided to float the naira. What happened? The dollar moved from 180/200s to 360/400's. Because we import fuel, this impacted the fuel costs which had been largely stable from May 2015 till that time, and that my friends sealed the glorious return of the subsidy to keep costs at 145/l. Low FX earnings plus high corruption meant the dollar started taking flight in no-time, and that my friends sealed the return of defending the naira. But the damage had been done innit? This arrogant clueless nigga thought it was a good idea to remove subsidy and float naira at the same damn time and some applauded. Again, what are these people smoking? Your Messiah only just made things a whole lot worse for you, and just like in 2015, subsidy is back, and naira defence will be televised (dem still dey disguise, just wait a bit). What have they gained from the misadventure, Nothingness! Scratch that, they achieved something unhealthy. For the first time they achieved a scenario where even majority of Nigerians in Nigeria have lost faith in the naira. That wasn't the case even last year or two years ago. The right thing was to remove subsidy, and still defend the naira to keep the effects of the subsidy removal controlled. If you were hypothetically using 1trillion on subsidy per month, ain't it just common sense to use say 300billion to defend naira and still partly save 700bllion that would have gone into subsidy. The drop in the value of the naira which had affected everything else would not have happened, it was totally avoidable but for the arrogant and reckless Thubv. How could these people vote APC??

3. Cardunce-o The CBN Governor

Need I say more? In a time of economic peril one should expect a reasonable govt to put square pegs in square holes. But no, they put a goat in charge of yam. All the real sectors are declaring bumper losses, only banks are declaring bumper profits, same caucus that Cardunce-o is part of same caucus that has benefitted from round tripping and arbitrage, is the same individual that Thubv thought right to head the CBN, an individual that managed a low-tier bank with probably less than 15 branches, na im Una expect to formulate sound policies in a time of economic peril? Laughable! The right thing to do would have been to recruit a capable, skilled and vastly experienced economist someone with a brain and resume like NOI. No cap, with my tiny MBA I go bench Cardunce-o, tell Thubv to ring me up asap!

4. Propaganda on overdrive

The level of insincerity is mind-boggling and irritating. The lies are too much. You literally can't trust a word these mofos are saying ever. Thank God for the individuals who dey leak some of their plans to the press. Thank God for the internet, we would have been so much in the dark on everything. We would probably be planning a Dubai trip riding on the words of Ajuri and get gobsmacked upon the feedback from the visa application. The right thing...is impossible to do for this govt. They are relentlessly untruthful, deceitful, self-serving and incapable of doing the right thing. It is their MO.

5. The oga pata pata of them all still somewhat linked to insincerity, is inconsistency. There is such a wide variation between 'What they say/preach' Vs 'What they stand for' Vs What they do. Again this is their MO. One minute Buhari says let's buy naira to grow Naira, but he patronised absolutely nothing local himself for 8years. Reduce medical tourism, but na him tour pass. These ones say na Nigeria importation dey cause palaver,but dem dey threaten cement manufacturers say dem go allow import of cement (no be same dollar u go use buy am). You say you dey find FDI, but organisations that have been around for 100years are packing up and leaving in droves, and then you use Gestapo style take hold binance crew say na them turn your naira to tissue paper. The FDI cheques don dey come through DHL you hear. Just 'contunu'

Feel free to digest, share, critique these cogent points. See you all on the one year anniversary of the great Tinubulation come May 29.

Nlfpmod Seun oam4j fp for a wider audience, maybe someone close to the 'presidency' can copy this for Baba or Cardunce-o to implement

PS: Today September 16, 2024, and fuel is officially 1k, all because the bastards that some blind bats enthroned, decided to turn the naira to tissue paper. Cursed be the APC!

The fools online and offline that were expecting fuel to be 300, how far?

As usual, the fools don't even know that the worst has just begun. Let me explain, even though fools still won't understand.

Fuel is gonna be expensive yea, but that is not all, you will still queue likely everyday to buy it. It will not be ready available anytime soon, maybe not even a year from now.

Cos only 1 full tanker will cost approx 50m naira, ONLY NNPC and a few big players eg Bovas will have the financial muscle to buy stock, meaning all the small players with small petrol stations will never open again. Even the Bovas will not buy stock everyday compared to when fuel was affordable. 10 Bovas station would amount to a bill of 500m, if na you would you be spending that everyday?? Meaning only the NNPC, will readily have fuel, meaning queues. The era of readily getting fuel anywhere is basically dead and gone for the foreseeable future. So much for fuel subsidy removal as a solution to all problems as touted by nairalanda1.

God go punish APC for making the naira toilet paper. We will not be in the hapless hopeless state, if they just kept the naira strong till this refinery started. I don't see any respite anytime soon. You will buy fuel at high rates and still toil and queue to find/buy it.

Ha! What a shambles!

IbeOkehie:
I miss the robust arguments against migration by the Anti-Jakpa Crew. I don't understand why they've all run away. Just when I was thinking of moving back to Nigeria again.

Where is AhibOil&Gas? Sihamey, Tadadobe, Treadway and of course their leader Sukkot. And the very first one I read that made me take note of Nairaland, Ozoemeka?

Nigerians need your reassurance in this....ahem, let's say...unusual time of their national history.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

my joy here is you or your little circle of friends with below par comprehension have failed to show me one anti-japa thread or even post of mine, since I threw out that challenge sometime last year.

Is God not wonderful? Lol

I say I (in bold o) do not fancy the idea of living abroad for personal reasons, some of which I have even shared on here...60-something year old man with an education interprets that to mean I'm anti-japa..

I quash your haughtily delivered exaggerations and skewed arguments with proof and finesse, but your ego can't handle the fact that this young man sef dey knowledgeable o, so you'd rather take the path of least resistance and tag me anti-japa...

I disagree with some points of view, you lazily defer to the anti-japa label.

Why so lazy sir? At least my bro Sukkot who evidently has a slew of anti-japa topics (for cruise), whom I have disagreed with on several things on here, we still relate so well regardless and he should be just about your age o....see the maturity and decorum he displays. We disagree on many tins, but he doesn't defer to a dick measuring contest unlike you.

Show me my anti-japa thread, una no fit. Show me my anti-japa post, una no fit. Ise aye re oo. This must be some metaphysical shi. Chai!

Like I said last year, may the prince of peace send his peace your way. Cos me I no just understand the dynamics of this your case aswear.

Yup.

The prayers he stopped for got answered swiftly.

Cheers to more answered prayers.

Absolute nonsense, how old were you in 1996/97?

patience, lad...

You will remember Treadway on Nairaland told you so, when that time comes.

When I was younger I admired Puff Daddy... even took up the nickname 'Puffy' when I was in secondary school.


But as I grew older and read more and more about these cats, I realised that Diddy is a bad bad mothaf****.

This nigga is as crazy and as evil as they come.. I have had this conviction for a while that this nigga not only had a hand in Pac's death but also Biggie's! He had a lot to gain with Biggie dead and still cashes those gains till this day and will till the end of time.

How much you think/reckon a verse of Biggie's work is worth??

Hopelessness even onto the face of death....smh

Free bread with came/whips, discounted/free rice with death. Just all round anyhowness..

Carry on!

These clowns still think anyone takes them seriously.

The protest that will shake Nigeria, if ever that would happen, will not be started by the confused NLC.

nedekid:
Our gdp will be around the 150-200b range with the current devaluation. It might be even lower.

thanks for correcting that fellow. Most have not paid attention to the negative impacts of all this tomfoolery by the APC govts. Our GDP was around $500b, but is now around one-third of that value thanks to Emilokan. By the time all figures are calculated, done and dusted, South Africa will assume the position of the largest economy in Africa, and we won't be getting it back anytime soon with this shambolic clueless mofos at the helm of affairs.


This was a thread I created in November on this same GDP loss, and we all know we have gone way way lower than this.....
but trust Nigerians not to read or focus on the things that will affect them, na portable and afcon be their own concern.

https://www.nairaland.com/7923805/nigeria-gdp-drops-500b-290b

Cc Sukkot GDP wey we dey use brag, don go.

Impossible future tense.

Y'all don't seem to grasp the implications of the iceberg we have hit. The major problem is that majority of the people (myself included) have completely lost faith in the naira..

Then there's the ish of some of us sane ones who also have absolutely no faith in the shambolic govt and leadership.

Only way Naira is ever coming back from this is if the country resets somehow and we magically become a producing economy (without electricity hence the 'magically') and that ain't possible either. Remember elementary economics and the topic factors of production? Electricity is in capital letters, ordinary elec we no get🤣

So you see why I say it is impossible future tense. Naija/naira is done. Period.

nedekid:
I did not watch the video, but I think this fellow is over his head. There is a difference between working as a tax collector in a state with excess revenue (yet plunging it in debt), compared to managing a country with scarce resources.
Oga at the top should have put someone like Akinwumi Ambode, he certainly would do better than this current fellow. It is on record ambode is was the only governor of any western state that never added debt while heavily performing.

and yet Emilokan and his legion of touts booted him out cos he no allow them steal as much as they wanted to.

vannessa7:
Yes, because he did same thing in Lagos, broke down the old, non progressive system ithen built a sustainable, progressive and new system we see today that all Lagosians are proud of. There was serious outcry and hatred towards him when he started but they started loving him when everyone begin to enjoy the result of his hard policies.

and there we have it. A Batist simply singing the praises of his master. I actually want y'all to bury the country, so, carry on.

Ps: The good thing about all this is that BRF, Ambode, and Sanwoolu effectively cannot lay claim to the development of Lagos as a reason to be considered for any roles in the future. Tinubu did everything, and built Lagos brick by brick.

Clowns and wankerrrrs...

Nawa4nl:
if you want them arrested,tell people they are Igbos.
Then they will get arrested

your comment is funny...but just now that I imagined that scenario in my head, I can see the evident truth in your submission. If Igbos were running BDCs in the country, they would have been shut down sinceeeeeeeee.
