marlow1962: They said they're ready to drop like flies as long as obi or any igbo man rule them. What an irony.
Before opening the site, I knew i will see stupid comments as such. it's always better to keep quiet if you have nothing good to say, everything isn't Politics.
PHIPEX: One country invites/summons an entire continent, God punish poverty
China invites Africa Russia invites Africa Japan invites Africa England invites Africa US invites Africa Brazil invites Africa India invite Africa UAE invites Africa
Very soon Iraq and Iran will invite Africa
Such an unending shame of a begi begi continent looking for free food and cheap loans
It's like you are in my head, imagine India to doing India africa relationship, it's funny 😁
Segzy19: Oh Abrahamovich, my man! He would have gotten a world class coach and bought top players. We should be contending for the league by now..
Not all these nonsense American Tod Boehly and his BlueCo shit...
The UK government and Blue co are both the principalities of darkness sent to destroy Chelsea and they succeeded, the moment they came in and sacked Tuchel and brought in that Potter guy, I knew it was finished and lost interest in Chelsea.
greatseed: The GAC is a smart move to check excesses of governance. They put Ambode on the spot when the wife erred by slapping a clergy man & the rest is history. Let's thread softly with power. Its is intoxicating.
The GAC is a great idea, but would have been better they represent both the Reigning party and the opposition, like for elections now, they present 2 candidates from different parties and allow the people vote their choice.
Wizzyonyxphoenix: But op, can I ask why you saw the need to refer to her as garbage? I'm genuinely curious...
It's such an odd thing to say but I want to understand you clearly.
The word garbage is condensing and shouldn't be used on anyone, however I think I understand his point POV, people who have seen shege in prev relationship most likely will project whatever they picked as lessons from their prev relationship into future ones, some will promise you that they have healed and move on, but it's more easier said than done, and I also will distance myself from such a fellow, however is stance on Anita is quiet wrong, the young lady might not even know her Older bro is a woman beater.
georgeakins: Your age mates are Portable and Efe. They are making millions through entertainment and you're here gnashing teeth
Phones and Data have become too accessible that some of you don't even hide your ill manners again, do you know my age? Did I tell you I'm not making enough money to take care of me? I only love to converse with only the few intelligent people on here, stay away from my mention.
Portable vs Carter Efe: Portable came in like an herbalist, Carter Efe came in like a prophet. who are you putting your money on? This f!ght go too sweet 🥊 https://t.co/1z8UY49lnjpic.twitter.com/SR90DcdoNl
Tensions were already high, and upon sighting Carter Efe, Portable immediately started throwing punches, creating a chaotic and intense scene before things were brought under control.
The atmosphere remained tense but entertaining as both sides sized each other up ahead of the much-anticipated fight.
The main fight is scheduled for May 1st.
MTSW nonsense and ingredients, if only we were productive.
Mariangeles: Okpa could as well be eaten with palm oil pepper sauce, with ogbamkpo, crayfish, and utazi too. So, let's not go there.
You Just like to talk, when you approach the woman selling Okpa, the best she does is to slice it for you and hand it over to you, when you buy Ekuru, they sprinkle salt on it and put the sauce in a takeaway plate for you, I eat both okpa and Ekuru so I know how it works.
U09ce: traditional rulers have no constitutional role and are at the beck and call of the governors, so how would they effectively oversight the police?
True, some people already quoted me above stating better alternatives, the Governing body of the Police structures should be made up of the Governor, his deputy, lga chairman and the DSS state directors to be an Eye for the FG.
An intelligent person who is knowledgeable on these things should please explain to me why we don't just hand the Present Police structures to the states, every Police man should be redeployed back to thier states and LGA to work.
1 it will reduce the financial burden of having to start looking for funds to pay the new state Police guys.
2 Under this new arrangement, the state Police commissioner will be answerable to committee made up of the Council of traditional rulers along with the states religious bodies head and the Governor as member of this governing board, this will ensure the governors don't have the Police at their disposal to misuse
3 The DSS formations in each state will be the FG eye on this state structures.
TheBlessedMAN: I am one of the writers in the Literature section of Nairaland. I am writing this to respectfully share a concern that has been on my mind for a while.
I was the first and, as far as I know, the only writer to reach 2 million views in the Literature section. (COUNTLESS, a story of sex betrayal and vengeance) . When I started writing on the platform, (back in 2017) the energy was very high. Readers were active, writers were motivated, and there was healthy competition for the top spot. It pushed many of us to give our best.
Unfortunately, things have changed.
The current treatment and support for writers is not encouraging. Many writers are losing motivation, and the strong competition that once made the Literature section lively is gradually fading away. It feels like the section is no longer receiving the attention it deserves
. I believe the Literature section still has great potential if a few improvements are considered.
Here are some humble suggestions:
Feature outstanding stories regularly on the front page to give writers more visibility.
Bring back the monthly or quarterly awards for top-performing writers and stories.
Create pinned guides or support threads to help new writers grow and stay motivated.
Improve moderation in the Literature section to reduce spam and keep discussions quality.
Consider partnerships, contests, or reading challenges that can bring readers back and revive healthy competition.
Boss, many of us are passionate about writing and about the platform. We simply want to see the Literature section grow again and become vibrant like it used to be.
Thank you for your time and for building a platform that has helped many Nigerian writers find their voice. I sincerely hope our concerns will be considered. Warm regards,
You left countless uncompleted for years i kept a tab and kept refreshing it every month, then I gave up and even stopped reading your literatures cos what's the essence.
Seun: Fixed. It looks normal now. I initiated the process of moving to a semantic layout system and html5.
Seun you really need to do something about your mods who push some bitter SA guys threads to the FP, there is a particular guy called Randdigital, I don't know how he gets his way with your mods to always push is threads that are always filled with Negative news about Nigeria to the FP.
Nigerians, rich and poor, and even the government, are not paying their electricity bills, and the result is a sector hamstrung by liquidity challenges. The subsidy and price controls make matters worse.
That means that discos cannot raise enough money to pay gencos. DIscos have to even reject power from the gencos because they know that people not paying means that no money to pay the gencos.
But most people na to deny, deny, deny. Some even misunderstand what privatization means. Yes, it means people invest, but it also means that customers have to pay the kind of cost reflective tarrifs that would make the investment make sense. Not this one where only 20% of people pay cost reflective tarrifs (and there is no way that revenue from the 20% who do pay can subsidsze the rest...).
A business must make a profit to survive. If you call someone tinubu supporter for saying that, that means you are saying that tinubu government get common sense, which as we know na oxymoron. And anyway, tinubu is keeping the price controls on the sector that are contributing to the problem.
I'm on Band B, I just got 2 hours of light this morning since Monday midnight, the light had issues, we can't go 2 weeks without the light having issues, I recharged 5 thousand since Dec, and still have like 17 units this morning when the light was restored this morning when I went to check. When the light doesn't have issues, I get maximum 4hours, meanwhile the next street in front of mine are on Band A and they rarely take their light, so the issue is the privatisation, Gov should take over all the Discos and resell to fresh people who have funds to invest in infrastructure and also sell of TCN completely and make sure every house hold is using prepaid, then finally a strong law put in place to deter energy theft, I.E those who bypass meters and watch how everything falls into place.
Offpoint1: 😂 Ignorance indeed. If I asked if you've ever access any huge data center you'll start blabbing.
If you must build a data center it should not a congested state like Lagos that's fighting for space and battling with heatwaves.
If you can't fly out of Nigeria, simply get 10 gaming desktops, keep them running and active in a room for just an hour and tell me your experience even with Cooling systems on.
There states with enough space for data in Nigeria, even neighboring states to Lagos have enough space for such.
Well, I for one always the Data centers should be in a place like plateau state, Gembu in Taraba state, but this guys know what they are doing, I guess the choice of lagos is cos of the readily available infrastructure, all the Sub sea internet cable operating in Nigeria, lands in lagos first. Moreover anyone that is investing hundreds of millions and billions of dollars would have done their calculations already.
Gajagojo: State level power generation is not unrealistic
What is important is to have a plan It can be done in some states like Lagos, and several states in the Niger Delta
There is no requirement to put up the capital up front by government
Dangote did not put down 20billion to build his refinery He borrowed most of it
What is important is to create an environment where investors believe they can get their money back
That typically would be a payback period of 12 years in this industry
If the deal is right capita will come
Electricity cannot be fixed by government Just like the telephone system could not
We need private investors Government should look at how to mobilize and concentrate diaspora funds Nigerians send $20 billion home yearly maybe more
If they can invest 5 % of that in power it would be a game changer
The way forward is state or regional power generation and distribution
If Lagos state forgets about 4th Mainland bridge and focuses on power it will make sense
4th mainland bridge? Are they even working towards doing that? It's all just stories. And yes I agree with your points too, but let's be honest, until we eradicate corruption, it won't work.
Immediately I saw this topic and who made it, before even opening it, I know some vile creatures will be tearing down their country inside and I was not disappointed. To the foolish and uneducated ones trying to link high fences to crime, please go back and re- educate yourself, there is a reason for it. When you curse a place, the place remains cursed for you and you alone, when you bless a place an speak positive about it irrespective of the numerous issues, the land becomes blessed for you and yields to you, but children of hate and perdition wouldn't know this. By the way @Seun why do your moderators always push this Rand digital and his fellow southie's post to the front page, you are doing your country a great dis service with that.
aworatak: Another misplaced priority. Embarking on such project should be the least of ECOWAS priorities considering the fact that the ecowas region is bedeviled by insurgency.
Ecowas didn't contribute a penny to the project, it was a free gift from the government of China to West africa.
Brendaniel: You and this your one way analysis, one solution for every problem...
But he his right na, why do you think investors don't want to invest in our power sector? Cos it's not profitable, South Africa wants to improve her power supply, see as investors are pouring in thier billions even all the way from India.
KiNg0G: Just this year alone, I have had sex with over 20 prostitutes. It's almost like I am cursed or swear for with this kind of lifestyle.
While people were in church Jan 1st I broke my resolution before the year even started, had marathon sex that night and one would think it will be enough but it never is.
Before then I have been trying to change the whole last weeks of December, even on Christmas eve and the 25th I was still holding myself, the urge to patronise them kept calling but I kept my cool was adamant on my resolution but on new year eve I lost it all and the relapse is so bad that I haven't rested since Jan 1.
From one brothel to another, different spots carrying daybreak, short time. I have lost a huge amount of weight within this 2weeks but I can't just stopped it's almost like I am jazzed... like a reflex action that I don't even think, it just happens..
I know it's the price I got to pay for starting with prostitute in my teenage days and it became a habit but now it's getting worse and I'm starting to think this isn't normal, they've gotten to me.
If I know anyone to go tomorrow to get a permanent solution even if it means paying for it I will. I met a pharmacist sometime last year if there's any medication I can take to kill my sex drive. He didn't give me a reasonable response, I just need help on how to reprogram my life, my brain to live like a normal human being with purpose and focus in life other than patronising prostitutes..it gets so bad that I take loans from friends and app to expense this lifestyle. I can't watch 2026 passed me by yet again with this kind of living. Now I am sober but give me 24hrs time especially tomorrow Sunday, I'm back to the same ways.
I need help.
Send me an Email if you truly want to breakout, however you won't spend a penny, only your commitment and determination to breakfreebb is needed and will set you free.

NaijaSumi: When are you going to pledge your support for the poor masses... Take that money to various hospitals to support major surgeries and health care of Nigerians struggling and begging for help.
Super Eagles Players are rich enough...
Lmao 🤣 😂 you people will never cease to amaze me, it's the Audacity for me. Like advising people on how they spend their money una dey do things ooooo
verminnel: I dont think there are likely any italian malinois bred here in Nigeria. The Belgian Malinois are quite becoming an easy find around. You can look up the breeder that owns " Matches Kennel" he's strictly into breeding Belgian Malinois,check his stock.
Tribalism has really done it's number on you guys or should I call it ignorance. FYI, tinubu had nothing to do with the appointment. Nigeria is just a share holder at NLNG. Shell, Total, Eni and NNPC jointly own it.
