EducationRe: Tinubu Signs Bill Creating Federal University Of Environmental Technology, Ogoni by unmask: 10:57pm On Feb 03, 2025
[quote author=seunmsg post=133987229][/quote]Waste of money that creates no value. Create Vocational centres that will teach the natives how to work in the companies in their region. That way, cries of marginalization will reduce and the people will learn practical skills they can use all over the world.

Building a new university is a waste of resources and adds no value

Same question I am asking
Only that while obi is referring to government, i am posing the question to my brothers.

These killers, kidnappers etc all camp and live amongst people. When do we get to that breaking point where we start flushing them out ourselves and giving security agencies intels towards clearing these criminals from our Land
This is a good take. Security agents are as good as the Intel they get. We might dislike them for their shenanigans, but if we need them to protect us adequately, we have to provide them with information

If I wasn’t Yoruba I’d be jealous of Yorubas

I’d be jealous of their language

I’d be jealous of their creativity

I’d be jealous of their wealth

I’d be jealous of their unity

I’d be jealous of Lagos

God bless all the Yorubas doing us proud

God bless the legitimate hustle of every Yoruba person

RomanceRe: Is Loneliness The Price I Will Pay To Become A Successful Woman? by unmask: 10:45am On Dec 20, 2024
Animegirl:
I have a burning passion to become a wealthy and successful woman, but I'm worried that getting married and having children might force me to put my dreams on hold. I'm concerned that I won't be able to balance family life with my personal ambitions. Furthermore, the societal pressures in Nigeria, combined with the constraints of time and age, are making me feel like I'm already at a disadvantage. My desire for success is strong, but I'm fearful that having a family might mean sacrificing my dreams.

I'm really scared.
follow your heart. What you will regret is doing one and spending the rest of your life regretting. So whichever burns deep is what you follow

It seems that Farotimi's did right , given the attacks he received. This intense reaction suggests that he said the truth and the truth struck a nerve hence the one that claimed he was defamed is jittery.
You bring a person's career to disrepute and you say he is fighting back. I don't know if Afe babalola is guilty or not, but an innocent person will also react this way.

If I tell you the level of hate and disgust I have for this country, it will be difficult to adequately express it.

The fact that people are keeping quiet over all of this nonsense make it even worse, and justifies my feeling about the country and most of the evil people in it.

Where the law is flexible and amenable to abuse by any idiot who happens to have some money or influence... Where the same law can be manipulated or interpreted variously depending on the actors involved... This is beyond unacceptable.

Oga Bayo Onanuga, I had to quickly google your background to find out if you are a midstream oil/gas engineer. Funnily enough, I saw that you are a journalist.

I don't care whether that refinery is working or not, but next time make sure you do fact-checking with people with vast industry experience. It makes your story more believable.

Na for this country dem use generator supply power to a power plant just to deceive one president who came to commission it.

Lawmakers or lawbreakers? Laws need to be strengthened. No lawmaker should be allowed to defect until the next election cycle, and anyone who defects should immediately lose their seat in the house. This rule should be unequivocal, and no court should entertain cases from defectors challenging their removal.

But then again, I might just be dreaming...
They defected to the ruling party

One thing you can't stop is politicians following their interests. People move to parties where they can further their interests. From Atiku to Obi to Dino to Buhari and BAT. It's all about interests. Ironically, Wike for all his shortcomings, seems to be the only one that has remained steadfast in one party

PoliticsRe: Ndume Wants Uchenna, Ifeanyi Ubah’s Wife To Replace Her Husband In Senate by unmask: 5:57am On Nov 21, 2024
ThunderfireNLMO:
Now, what should this tell you people about your polithiefcians? It really means they don't care a hoot about you. You can imagine a Senator talking about compensating a vacant elected seat to a widow because her husband died. I wonder if that vacant seat has become an hereditary one. Anyways, I trust Eye-neck with their doings. Anything can happen sha especially under Tilumbu cheesy cheesy cheesy

"The Borno senator recounted that some deceased senators were succeeded by their wives and relations. In contrast, others became members of the upper chamber under the influence of their husbands and fathers."

The above shows that has been their practice from day one, yet you see some morons fighting over polithiefcians. You will see one poor Yoruba guy here constituting nuisance bragging and beating his chest and say: "We are the one in government". Who are the "we"? Lmao😅😅😅 Or statement like: We should thank Tinubu, he gave us enough appointment. Yes, we are the one in power." Who are the "we" and "us"?
You will see some typical Igbo chaps talking with their usual rants like: "And Tinubu government is not that bad o, they want to use this post to compensate us". Who be "we"? What is your benefit? The funniest thing is a typical Hausa/Fulani guy saying: Tinubu has oppressed us, the North will never forget." Lol😆 Oga na you be the "North"😅😅😅

I can never understand how the poor perceive themselves under a system like this. The earlier you understand that there are two ethnic groups in Nigeria, the rich and the poor, the polithiefcians and the f00lish masses. Yet, the f00lish masses are not ready to be liberated. They love to lick the butts of their oppressors.
I don't think that's what he meant. He said the Senate should support her when the election time comes. He is not saying she should be handed the seat.

Well in this era of technology, I actually find taking notes mundane. A simple recording with transcription does this easily. Question is if the Nigerian aide wasn't taking notes on paper, could he have been employing other means?
FamilyRe: Married Women, What's Your Biggest Regret About Marriage? by unmask: 3:44pm On Nov 15, 2024
Hemanwel:
Your first sentence negates your last.

You advised that women should get married to whom they are attracted to and in the same breath, "marriage isn't worth it at all", according to you.

I want to believe you got divorced from your husband not because you prolly weren't attracted to him; but because marriage isn't your thing. You got tired of him. You got tired of marriage. You decided out. You wanted to be free. You didn't want to be accountable to anyone for the life you wished to live.

Question is: why did you decide to marry the poor guy when you knew "marriage isn't worth it"? Oh! You just wanted to have kids with him, ditch him, and start exploring life.

Not good at all!
no where did she mention kids. It's how a lot of you jump into conclusions. Someone said she regrets marriage and that is based on her experience, respect that

This is not the problem of the driver, may be he is carrying contraband but the soldiers if they have proper respond team within the area won't go chasing the driver, they should have contacted the other response team and followed the driver slowly, with that the driver won't be tensed to drive in high speed until he is stopped somewhere else....

So Vini was not influenced both in La Liga, UCL and Spanish cup? The entire brazil team has issues and everyone knows it. Every single player in brazil nation team plays well for club side but when they return home they play rubbish. That should tell you a lot going in the dressing room.
I am not concerned about his dressing room, but let me help you. Madrid got past Man City in the UCL not because of strength upfront, but because of solidity at the back (park the bus). Rodri didn't have to change his style of play to suit a victory. His numbers were stellar in his department. Interceptions, passes, progressive play, dictating play. Vini scored 15 of Madrid's 87 goals in La Liga and he is their main attacking threat. Compare that to the likes of Mbappe and Kane that were main attacking threats in their club

please what exactly are we basing Vini to win on. Usually when a forward wins, he must have some really good goal scoring numbers or clear all trophies available for club and country.

Your submission has truth in it but no t entirely.
The decision is made after collating votes by top journalists as you and I already know right.

The crux is the grading system based on a number of criteria like fair play, individual brilliance, etc. which is largely not as transparent as before.
The selected journalists are meant to be unbiased. So how is that a problem?
