Is this based on KGB Intel...?

He's saying the truth. I once read something similar to that in a book relating to American politics. It's all about power and interests of non-politicians who are frequent in the corridors of power. That's why you see that that in the same America, some politicians believed that global warming is real and some do not. They believe it's actually a propaganda. Infact, Presidents do not really run South America countries too.

I took about four oranges at lunch time. Immediately I finished the second one out of the four oranges, I discovered I haven't encountered any seed. In my quest to understand why, I ate the other two and I found no single seed. It's surprising to me because I'm experiencing this for the first time.

Nemesis0147:
and she is still struggling to pay rent?
No husband
No children?
She should have made plans for her retirement long time ago
Even if na to come back Nigeria and set up.

Those were my thoughts yesterday before deciding to post the story. Even in Nigeria, we have retirees living in their private properties and not paying rent.

71 year old still doing cleaning job in UK
What Nigeria cannot do to its citizens does not exist!

By my calculation, she moved to the UK at the age of 17 and that was 54 years ago. I hit the front page for the fourth time in two years.

A 71-year-old Nigerian grandmother, Janet Olufunke Damiro, has been dismissed from her cleaning job at the London School of Economics after being accused of stealing a bracelet.

British tabloid newspaper, Metro UK, exclusively reports on Thursday that Damiro, who moved to the United Kingdom from Nigeria in 1971 and had worked at LSE for 13 years, said she simply forgot the gold bracelet in her purse after finding it during her shift and intending to hand it in later.

She returned it three days later when questioned by management, but was still suspended and eventually dismissed in April for gross misconduct.
Damiro said, “I can’t sleep. I have never had a bad record or been to HR before in my life.

“LSE have treated me really badly. It was my only job, and I loved working there. I never expected to be suspended or dismissed.

“I did not steal this thing. If I see any items, I always hand them over.

“This is the first time in my life I have had a problem like this since I came to this country. It is really bugging me.”

Metro reports that more than 70 of her colleagues, including three supervisors, have written to LSE management in her defence, insisting on her honesty and professionalism.

“Janet has always conducted herself with integrity and consistently demonstrated a strong work ethic,” their letter read.

Her trade union, United Voices of the World, in a post on its website last month, appealed the dismissal and criticised the university’s handling of the situation.

Speaking with UVW, Damiro said, “I don’t steal. I’m not a thief. I’ve worked at LSE for over 10 years without any problems. I just forgot. At my age, you can forget like that.

“They look at me like I’m a thief. It’s unfair. I’ve not been myself at all, I don’t sleep at night. I don’t have a job now, but I have to pay my rent and bills. Who’s going to employ me at this age?”
According to Metro, the university has declined to comment publicly, citing the ongoing nature of the case.

Meanwhile, LSE students have launched a petition calling for her reinstatement, describing the punishment as “deeply disturbing” for what they believe was a “minor mistake.”

An appeal hearing initially scheduled for May 22 was adjourned, and a new date has been set for later in June.

All addictions are poisons. Always difficult to quit because of the mental satisfaction people derive from them.

Fiscus105:
1. Gambling.
2. Smoking cigarettes.
3.Porn watching.
4.Masturbation.
5.Drugs.
6. Phone/internet.

To me it's phone addiction is most difficult to quit.

Hi!

The Made Men.

The Lagos State Government has said it is working to introduce monthly and quarterly rent payment options as part of efforts to reduce the financial pressure on residents, especially low-income earners.

The state Commissioner for Housing, Moruf Akinderu-Fatai, disclosed this on Tuesday during the 2025 Ministerial Press Briefing to mark Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s second year in office.

Akinderu-Fatai said the planned policy is a continuation of the state’s drive to make housing more accessible and affordable.
He recalled the government’s earlier rent-to-own scheme, which allows beneficiaries to make a five per cent initial payment and spread the balance over 10 years.

“That initiative was well-received, and its success encouraged us to explore new ways to reduce the pressure of yearly rent payment,” he said.
He noted that many residents find annual rent payments difficult and that the new system is expected to provide relief.

“We believe that monthly or quarterly payment options will give people more breathing space and reduce the stress associated with sourcing lump sums,” he added.

He added that the government is currently consulting with landlords, developers, and other stakeholders to resolve potential challenges related to enforcement and payment systems before rolling out the initiative.

“Of course, there are issues to resolve — things like landlord cooperation, payment tracking, and enforcement. But discussions are ongoing, and we are listening to all sides,” he said.
He revealed that a pilot phase is being planned in selected areas of the state.

“This is not just policy on paper. We are making real progress. We know what this means for many families, and we are determined to make it happen,” he stated.

Sermwell:
Who told you EFCC is serious with this investigation? There's probably order from above to drop the charges. All these are just wash

You should only say what you know, don't speculate... My comment is not a beer parlour or Jankara market oriented.

An 18-year-old randy boy has impregnated no fewer than 10 girls in Anambra State. The Anambra State Commissioner for Women’s Affairs and Social Welfare, Ify Obinabo, disclosed this in a social media video, saying the matter was brought before her on Tuesday.

Two of the pregnant girls are his master’s daughter and salesgirl, while the eight others were impregnated just two months after he returned to the village, having been sent packing by his boss.
According to Obinabo, in a live video she shared on social media seeking advice, she said: “I want advice from the public because this one is beyond my capacity.

“This boy was sent to learn a trade at the age of 18 and, three months into the apprenticeship, he impregnated his oga’s daughter and his salesgirl. He was sent packing. Two months after that, he impregnated eight others in the village.

“The mother reported the matter to my office, saying anytime she sees a girl coming towards her house nowadays, her heart would jump and that she needs help.
“This matter is beyond me; that’s the reason I want the public to help me come up with a solution. Is it spiritual?

“I asked the boy the magic he uses in luring the girls to bed, but he told me he always tells them that he loves them and would like to marry them anytime he acquires wealth.”

However, the commissioner did not disclose the community where the boy hails from, nor the name of the mother while narrating the issue.

She said: “This problem is beyond me because of the boy’s age and the number of pregnant girls involved. That’s why I need help to solve it.”

LordCenturion:
This is not a prophecy, but a prediction about his preferred candidate who will succeed Pope Francis

You're wrong... Please Check the machine meaning of the noun "Prophecy" and the verb "Prophesy".

Prophecy - a prediction of what will happen in the future.
And to tell you, you don't have to be a clergy man to prophesy.

What if someone had received the money in favour of Yaya and paid to the school? They should establish a nexus between the sender of the money and the governor. It doesn't have to be his name or business... Maybe a friend or business associates.

It may be a RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corruption Organization) thing.

For the school to make a refund means the money was actually received by the school.

These guys (investigators) didn't do their background check very well. They should follow the money trail and if the banks are not cooperating, they should charge them too.

Really? I was on the front page three times last year. My first time too was last year.

kenn4rill:
See me see front page for the first time after being on this forum for about 10 years.

And for all the people supporting this evil government, make una no worry, just pray Nigeria never happen to you.

It's like this EFCC has outlived it's usefulness, just targeting Nigerian youths left and right and centre whereas the main people committing the real financial crimes are walking freely. Even Yahaya Belo somebody they claim to be looking for when to their office but dey couldn't arrest him.

Small time they will start arresting husbands for beating their wives.

EverydayTipsfor:
I don’t agree with this generalization. Yes, there are issues, but painting the entire nation as corrupt is unfair. There are still many honest and hardworking Nigerians out there.

Only a few. Don't forget this, you might be honest and not religious. You might be hardworking and corrupt too. Only a few are honest and genuinely contented.

I was thinking about same last night after reading about NNPCL investiagation. More than 80%. Most of us will be guilty for actions and inactions. As a criminologist, I looked at the severity of the allegations and knowing we're still borrowing money from foreign entities for people to embezzle. Look at NELFUND issue too, diversion of money meant for school fees by officials of some universities. Meanwhile, I call this constructive possession and criminal conversion.

Tareq1105:
He might be thinking of running for Governorship of his state.

It's all about greed.

Govt would take loans to fix the economy but some people would divert to their personal pockets and be deceiving Nigeria and Nigerians that the refineries are working.

After Nigerians would say it's Buhari, it's Tinubu. Our problem is lack of integrity. Do we expect Tinubu to combine NNPC CEO with his work? We're thieves without shame.

You're 100% right. Same thing I use to tell people. It's the system and not the President.

OMG! These people stole my research.... Hahahaha. My release is billed for month end... awesome.

This is hilarious!

lexy2014:
Who is in charge of the system?

Your pastor is in charge of the religious system...
Your dad is in charge of your family unit?
Your VC is in charge of the Educational system in higher education. If all of above can do their job effectively, you'll be an extremely good man. And collectively, we'll be able to resist bad behavioral pattern at all levels.

lexy2014:
Who is in charge of the system?

So many people are in charge of the system... starting from the family unit. The belief system starts from the family and the society and when the believe system is wrong, all other things will be wrong. We've been buying power transformers, electric cables and poles for power companies when it's clearly their responsibility but we don't manage telecom companies facilities for them. Is that Tinubu again?
Commerical banks haver been deducting your money illegally for decades. Is that Tinubu again? It looks like you don't understand what's happening.
Look at this again. If a teacher gives an assignment to a child and the parent is expected to guide the child on how to do it but instead, the parent fixed the assignment using his own handwriting. When this continues to happen, the child is made to believe that my mom/dad is meant to write his assignment for him. The child will always resist each time the parent wants him to fix his assignment because he's not used to it- and I call that sponsored laziness. People glorify shameful acts and the society rewards that. And I can continue to give you numerous examples.

It's called "Back to School" sandal now.

Jokerman:
This Tinubu APC is full of criminals.

God!!!!

This is not Tinubu... Think properly before you comment. Is Tinubu the VC? The problem is not the President, it's the system. And it didn't start today. It's been on like that for decades.

I'm suspecting a foul play in the account of the incident as the age of the bride was never mentioned in the report. Was the bride an underage girl?
