OnionBandit:
Nothing special about this, to be honest

We used to make stuff like this in the 70's

You are very correct.
Nigeria has really spoilt. Things like this weren't an issue back then.
Today's generation has so much "NOTHING", that anything they see is immediately glorified.

omlueh:
Please may i know if they don't pay Police Officers Monthly Salary like they do to every other Employee of Labor whom pay for Services been render to them

Well, the salary is very small, like 40k.
You now expect this guy to collect the 40k, and be pursuing criminals for you like James Bond, who can kill him at any time?
If you join police force, it's the same 40k they will pay you. So what will you do?
Complain and not join police.
Then nobody will do the work. Then we kukuma will not have police in Nigeria.
See, this thing is not the man's fault. He just needs a free ride for his duty that's all.
We just doing nonsense in Nigeria. We will say minimum wage is N18,000 abi N30,000 and the state itself is not doing any economically viable activity to generate any income to pay the N30,000 to workers... So where will the money come from?
Beside, who can even live on N30,000 a month?
We are just mentioning baseless numbers and alphabets without any substance.
That's not how nation used to work.

Americans Nairaland version is called Reddit.
Every country has their own local news and comment yabbing website.

Lilpen3758:
My friends are steady bashing me about being anti-social that I don't watch football and I don't play football and I like being on my own too much which is true but the thing is that I enjoy being on my own is that weird??

Nothing wrong.
I don't like football either.

clothingonline:
ASUU is the most useless association every two month you must always strike don’t you have other way like dialogue or protest Rubbish

Funny thing, you won't be a lecturer like them and pass through what they are passing through.
Officially, they should just teach and teach and teach only, then collect salary at month end.
If the salary is not paid, or is a pittance, they should still be teaching abi? No runs, no business?

iamyemiakins:
A whole diamond

Well, that's how the human economy works.
Certain things will just be valued more than others. But most times it's because of the scarcity of that thing that value is added to it.
We can all bone diamond in Africa and maybe value something else. But in time, these white people will easily manufacture that thing and then it loses its value in the world economy.
So sorry, diamond value is here to stay along with gold, silver and other rare elements.

allthingsgood:
nigerian youth are unemployable

See the story of Innoson. He's just as Secondary School leaver.

Chidywhite:
Nigerians, this statement is ironic, only the wise will understand.

A president should speak clearly. His words can trigger a war. He's the president and not just ordinary citizen.

LeeSantos:
...did using old truck caused these?
Make we manage am, make we manage am would cause this.

What do we do?
If you use all your money to buy a new truck, how do you get the money back?
We have a bad economy were we require very expensive equipment to distribute cheap produce.
The economics isn't balanced. So we have to manage 2nd hand equipment to lower our initial costs.

Which part of this story has Nigerian?
or there are no children in Nigeria again?
Or you're too stupid to communicate with your own children in nigeria, but brainwashed to carry oyibo children's story and give us?

josh123:
This is what we call literally black is beautiful

Dey gist with the girl, make nepa take light for that room...
You go find am tire.

Na joke O!

Bahamas95:
I always pray to God to give me perfect children so I won't be forced to commit murder.

May God not give us problem that is beyond us.

Never knew Chimera really exist
Last time i heard about Chimera was in teen wolf season 5...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbIPVo4XnLI

Just thank God everyday that you were born normal.
In this girls case, she absorbed her twin, formed ONE body and has 2 DNA
In the video above, the division did not finish. Wetin man go do?
Born the Pikin like that.

ChiefSosa:
I MAY FORGIVE YOU FOR VOTING BUHARI YEAR 2015, BUT I CAN'T FORGIVE YOU FOR 2019.

That is exactly what I cannot understand.
How people will vote this man a 2nd time.

ENEMYOFGOD6:
.rubbish,so he could'nt call his powerless God to send down fire from heaven to burn them all, after how many months ?,Scammers paraded themself as pastors.

God doesn't destroy other people because you are serving him.
He made everybody and has made salvation for everybody, every single human being! How will he be destroying his own creation again?
It's left to you to accept the salvation or destroy yourself.

elliottibanga:
UAR, the Banana Republic!

What are we going to do na?
I didn't choose this country to be born, neither did you. We found ourselves here and all the amalgamation, colonization and Mungo Park stuff has already happened before we arrived.
We now have yeye politicians doing nonsense daily.
This country is full of intelligent people. But none of them ever make it into leadership.
Agberos and area boys keep on electing criminals into position, like say we wey go school no get any say for this nation.
We only complain, our lecturers are starved of their salaries and we can't use electricity to run our PC, charge phone or run our small business.
Anything education is hammered and basterdised in this nation. And we end up in shitty environment.
Yet whenever we pick up instagram or facebook, we see nice pictures of foreign nations on this same earth, and our mates in foreign nations creating a decent environment for themselves.
How long will all this BS continue?

Ikillbrokehoes:
Just take a look at how good a village road is, unlike the nonsense roads we have in Nigeria, it's such a pity.

The issue of bad road for Nigeria tire me.
It is actually the duty of the local government to do the roads.
But the stupid form of government we have in Nigeria, has put State government and local government under state government.
This is not done in other nations.
Our Federal govt, gives money to State govt.
State govt will only give Local govt small money like houseboy. So all the roads are unmaintained, gutter dirty, no transformer. And that is the problem.
I lived in UK small. And they don't have state government there. Just local government fully empowered from the top, Prime minister to make everything good.

Militant30:
Soyinka can not protest again?
This Yoruba people really messed this country up with there stupid English.

The Soyinka that was a lion during Jonathan tenure is now a rabbit under the gworo chewing president.

Nonsense artifact.

Allow the man rest na?
He has been protesting since 1969..
How many have you protested?

Grace001:
See poverty... Suffering and smiling has become a lifestyle to this one.

I hope you won’t handover this suffering and smiling lifestyle to your kids. I reject it for them on their behalf, those poor kids don’t deserve it

You don't even know me.
I'm overweight. I have a farm.
Once in a while I cook other foreign dishes.
Maybe the most expensive dish I've cooked and eaten is about N1000 if I calculate all the ingredients. And that was some taco/shawarma mix.
It was too filling. Hence I average out my meals to about N200 to avoid wasting anything.
So what's your problem now?

HEAVEN4444:
60 dollars is 30,000 naira. can you eat a meal of 30,000 naira ? nekwa . that is ya salary for the month

N200 food fills me up
Why would I want to spend N30,000 on 1 meal again?
Where will the food go?

honeybobo69:
These people (Twitter, Google) really want a better Nigeria. I hope this is the last we see of these set of people (uneducated, shallow minded, greedy)

E go hard O.
There are many educated Nigerians here. But somehow, we went and elected Buhari without certificate
Now, he's appointing all kinds of mumu people into positions.
Why did we elect Buhari in the first place?

ekerensima:
we now have stronger materials titanium, carbon fiber and other composite materials. But I assurd you, they are dame expesive

F1 cars, Bughatti and other super cars use these materials, but they still design the car to crumple in accidents instead and save the occupants' lives in impact.
I guess this Audi is more on the consumer side with multiple body materials.
But Audi no cheap na! Especially these new ones.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuJMtW3xeNQ

ekerensima:
Honestly I am tired of seeing cars and beautiful vehicles crumpled like tin cans when accidents occur. so engineers in the house, seeing that we have high powered engines and lighter composite materials, why are vehicles not made stronger. I don't think a car with two inch thick amour will have any problems in an accident( I know that there are other variables that come into play in these situations) what do you think?

Lalasticlala come and select your next amoured car ooo

marpol abeg come and take this to the promise land.

That was olden days car design. And people died anyhow at the expense of strong car body. Car is your slave, not your master. You should remain alive, whilst the car dies instead. Hence the shift over to softer body work with crumple zones.
Below is a clip from Fifth Gear, showing a uselessly STRONG small car with full explanation of all the demerits.

How this small thing,take dey swallow big thing like this, is something I never understand.

It can dislocate its jaw, so its mouth opens mega-wide.

Chigold101:

Where?
Inside!

ebuclassic18:
sir is part if marriage but my question is hope her family are grateful to you not all will accept them

Which kine it's part of marriage?
Oya they should bring their own toto when he wants to do that thing na, as them don put their hand inside him marry complete.

Ajiyegbe:
Bros,
It is not a serious issue. If you have not been giving your wife money before, start by giving her a certain fraction of your salary for home upkeep. Save the rest for the future. She will be forced to get her people from coming around when the money you give her is exhausted. Since your marriage is young, I can bet she will discuss you with her family should you complain about the family members.

Because of this thing, one of my friends carry him family run go USA.
But in this case it was both the man's family that were begging everyday and the woman's family as well. Begging from both sides, food, house rent everything.

Florencejames:
Put poison for their food

If they die in your house, you are responsible..
More will come from the village to hold you responsible for the death and burial.

That is the worst thing you can ever do.

Better to just move away to a far place with your family.

Sweetcho:
Im confused! I was in high street kensington today and saw the protests. This protest was for the Palestine thing was it not? I saw a few black people and was thinking to myself, you are protesting for these palastene people meanwhile if youre in their country they treat black people like crap

When Nigerians are in another person's country, they just be misbehaving.
You people will not go and learn work from Dyson, or Elon Musk and do something worthwhile. Abi you don't know where their house is?
Just be making noise on internet everyday.

Flexherbal:
When the government is far from its people, it sees peaceful protest as a fight.

But what about the people that voted the government into position in the first place?
Should we not fear those ones more? And those are ordinary Nigerians that did it.

Hub9:
A country is as healthy and active as its president.
But Buhari doesn't know.

As bad a Buhari is, I'm very surprised that people voted him into power.
So who should we fear now? Buhari himself or other so many Nigerians who think like him and hence voted him into power in the first place?
