They just added it to the movie to make it more dramatic.
Nobody said that.
Chineke! Nigerians!

The builder of the ship actually said it

RIP, the founder of my bank

uunwanaobong3:
Britain, na real America slaves, following America where ever they goes... British based their entire foreign and domestic Policies on American shoulders. They never had any independent thinking of their own ............................ I am ashamed that our fore fathers were colonised by these British people (dependent children in adults bodies). How could it be possible that we allow ourselves to be enslaved by these American slaves.



Thank God for China who has come along to give us an alternative choice in foreign policy relations.......... Russia can keep on deceiving themselves with the west.

Did you know that Britain colonised America? America got independent from Britain just like Nigeria, what are you saying

Building project

taylor89:

No wonder our beloved Igbo people no gree do anything to win Guinness World Record since them no dey pay

And the Hilda of a babe is even married that means no much help or vacations will come from our hornny billionaires like hornny of Ife(Oni of Ife)
****************************************
All these people shouting endorsements up and down

Na so una go deceive youths to go for big brother to waste their time, some even acted porn just to trend

How many of the big brother guys dey relevant now? How many get endorsements, how many wey their endorsements last reach two years

Reason why Nigeria is backward, people should not attempt great feat unless there is money involved, this your idea is also short sighted because you should realise she will start catering for kings and the higher ups now with this record she broke, she will get to Aso rock and billionaires will beg her to cater for their parties, stay there

JAMO84:
There's a particular region in Nigeria that needs to stop eating bitter leaf, so that the bitterness and hatred in their hearts will reduce.

WORD!!!

ipobarecriminals:
after washing their blokos with kettle water,the next is to drink blood. To think that this vampire just finished his fasting oo


No need to waste time. Find person to cut him into piece too

That man is a Christian, John Danjuma, read and comprehend

Teenage years are the most difficult in a child's life and should be handled with a lot of prayer, care and understanding, RIP to the dead

Bodexman:
Don't waste your energy explaining to them. They can never comprehend the meaning of that ONE DAY

O ya mi lenu o, imagine the level of comprehension, very low, election 2023 is an exposé

Mubiola360:
Are you people okay at all?
This issue of drug was raised during Obasanjo's tenure
.FG took Tinubu to court of which he obeyed instead of pretending to be sick like Dino. Nuhu Ribadu was an incorruptible person which we all know, everything was scrutinized, yet Tinubu was set free. Do you think Tinubu can buy is way over with Obadanjo as President , think, think , think deep !!!.

Obasanjo stated it in his book on how he fabricated propaganda and attack on Tinubu with lots of frustration to make Lagos Ungovernable for him and yet he survived and still standing tall till today.

Stop the hate and celebrate grace.

It's like they are just hard of hearing with poor cognitive ability, it's an handicap, a malaise, it's a pity

swaggerjack:
Money and occultism.

That is a big lie, you cannot practice occultism with Islam unless you want ment, and the wife being a Pastor in RCCG will never support such, RCCG is an holiness church, I'm sure no pastor from there can practice occultism with the heavy anointing on them and they will remain normal, note that I did not refer to normal sin but occultism as you wrongly accused him of .

BossGerald:
What are the tangible reasons if not for the division and tribal bigotry that evil Apc government is known for?

Think about this, in my uni days, there was civil unrest in the country and a lot of students union government members went to town to riot, on their way they were ambushed by police riot squad end were arrested, taken to the station and the next day they decided to release them because they were students, the police had to interview each student to confirm they are really students because at that time hoodlums had already hijacked the riot and we're mixed with the people arrested, one particular thug made every laugh so hard when they asked him the name of his faculty, he said faculty of student and that's how they separate the thugs from the students. On this case too, a dangerous militant or spy might want to join them if they don't identify them by state apart from the fact that their state government will receive them and give them some money to help them settle a little which is better for them. My point, having a victim mentality and viewing everything with suspicion is a sign of inferiority complex, you don't expect you deserve any good thing so you read everything upside down, obedients are known for this and that's why you hate so much, start loving yourselves.

Gidgiddy this is for your point number 3, perhaps you were hibernating under the rock when this came out

He has been sleeping since, he just woke up now because Tinubu won, I'm sure he will still be sound asleep if Peter Obi had won, time waster.

Igboslayer:
You claim are not totally true! See these links, you may need to edit your comment. Many were not compensated!

https://saharareporters.com/2022/08/15/fct-abuja-indigenes-seek-return-occupied-lands-government-demand-integration-reject

https://www.thecable.ng/reps-consider-bill-seeking-to-resettle-compensate-abuja-indigenes/amp

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/144385-investigation-fct-officials-steal-houses-lands-abuja-indigenes-huge-resettlement-fraud.html?tztc=1

Those links further verified my submission that they were compensated, to re settle is to pay them again, I was on ground among them, I saw them go through all the acquisition and compensation.

Only obedients will still fault this even with the former President chipping in to verify the truth, our Tinubu, God bless him.

Menclothing:
Tinubu single handedly sponsor Ghana Guinea president current France president he gave him a house in ikoyi b4 he became president.

[/b]This man needs to be studied as a course he is a grace it’s beyond human just God [b]

I can’t hate who God have bless

God make kings not man

He can also dethrone kings

I tell you, he is an enigma, I have been studying and analysing him a bit and what I found out is staggering, one of my hobby is numerology and when I calculated Tinubus numerology life path number based on his birth date and studied it I understood why he is like that, he has 22 as his life path number, you can check out that life path 22 online, I am 11 myself, Nigerians actually need this man, he is answer to our prayers.

Omodua:
Did Obi lose? If yes, you're outside the orbit.

Led me educate you. Your Tinubu didn't win. But used INEC and thugs to secure victory. And this is being challenged at Elections Petition Tribunal. Hopefully, the stolen mandate shall be retrieved and given to the rightful owner/winner, Obi.

Obidients delusion grandeur. The loss that even Soludo and every sane Nigeria foresaw long before election, you better wake up.

Igboslayer:
They have all these things and never benefited from it, they watch others taking away the best and juicy benefits these advancements offers. I served in Abuja and Bwari area council is by far the worst local council in Nigeria.

The people were driven into the bush… there is a village there where vehicle only ply once on market day. I visited there on bike and was shocked the people trekked many miles to access water daily from a stream.

No good road, the only school was in shambles and I don’t think anything have changed more than 20 years after, while the rich takes advantage of them living in opulence jostling for positions. Both Hausas, Yorubas, Igbos and other minorities are guilty.

Not true, I lived in Abuja for six years, Bgagyi people are predominantly farmers, even if Abuja is not the FCT they will still have such villages as you mentioned, all the indigenous Bgagyi people whose land were repossessed were all settled handsomely, many Bgagyi people have become really rich due to government acquiring their land, also they have associations and bodies who controls their affairs and fight for them to ensure they are not shortchanged in government job appointments and allocations except when it's elective office, they get job automatically once they are educated, they are just waking up to real education too, they fight for their right all the time

Parading himself up and down like somebody important even after losing woefully, he is on a denial, his mind playing tricks on him that he is the president, it can only end in depression by the time reality set in, sore loser

Jerryherd:




From Jubril clone of ElSudan to Amoda Yekini Aguileri of Iragbiji/Guinea


Isn't this stupidity getting more and more hilarious

Well for a group to start a war with loud mouth ragtag army, and loose 3 million souls... 3 freaking million to starvation, hunger, cannibalism only for the leader to run off with his favorite Mercedes Benz and family returning to surrender and contest later

Animal Planet, National Geographic Chanel , Discovery Wild need to dedicate a full documentary series on how these particular group reason and how their brains work Politicaly


.

You know, I was just thinking there might be some truth to the story we heard while growing that there fore father is an ape, because their reasoning capability has proven to be below par at all times, they keep exhibiting this selfish, animalistic behavior of thoughtless survival instinct by devouring others, and it's majority of them on this table. They cannot analyse beyond their selfish interest, that is why crime is normal to them and they are destroying and eroding out values by close proximity to them. It's very unfortunate.

These low IQ unfortunate people hates Tinubu with a vengeance, there is nothing their corrupt brain will not come up with to denigrate him, there is absolutely nothing under his arm from the original pictures on Tinubu Twitter page, later they will claim marginalization, they will ask for juicy appointments, God will disgrace every enemy of Tinubu insha Allah in Jesus name

ukaface:
Is it a do or die thing?
What is the wonderful thing that will happen if he rules for 8 years?
Please if you’re replying, I want you to explain to me like we’re adults.

Shame on you Penguin2, this is how God will continue to disappoint and shame every enemy of Tinubu from now on insha Allah in Jesus name.

They hate him with a vengeance yet they expect him to put them in his inauguration cabinet so they can poison him, he is wiser than that.

madridguy:
That is not a mosque and no one should try to deceive the chief tribalist.
You cannot claim he entered a mosque with his shoe.

I was wondering imagine using chair in the mosque, he attended a Muslim program they call it mosque, can he pray Muslim way head slamming as they call it.

He will be back at the right time either tomorrow or another day

aariwa:
how old are you? So you don’t know electricity or fuel or diesel is need for production? That you will pay your workers? Can you compete with a person producing same where electricity is stable? With current cost of fuel are you willing to pay 3 times the price for same item?..smh

You talk condescendingly even without knowledge, I wouldn't have responded to you if not for your tone, when you produce for your country use you don't have to compete if you don't import same product from other countries,and your economy get stronger, government is able to produce better amenities because they receive more tax, more jobs becomes available and household income increases, it produces a circle of prosperity because you are not enriching another country by patronizing them when your own country people can produce same thing but is left jobless because you prefer foreign good, when china closed it's borders for 40 years, there was little advancement in power generation then but they persisted and they are now developed, everything I have said is textbook macroeconomic fact being taught daily in higher institutions.

aariwa:
what enabling environment is there in Nigeria not to import? Without importation that filled in that gap by now hunger would have pushed you to go and kill your parents and eat them..or you thought manna( those things you use now) fall from heaven?

That's a lie, importations killed our industries and took jobs away from people, Bata is one of the industry killed by shoe importation, Nigeria Textile Mills, is another, china banned importation for 40 years and they became industrialized, if they need it they find a way to produce it thereby keeping their job and money in their country instead of giving jobs to people of other country by buying their products making them to employ more staff while our graduates remain jobless

Sapiosexuality:
Fried chicken cheap? Measure cooked rice with plates? Now this is an exaggeration. I was born in the north and lived over 25 years there. I rarely notice the difference in price of things around the country. Not enough to even call it cheap anywhere. You only find those cheap things in the northern villages and generally, villages.

Which part of the north because I stayed in Kano, Kaduna, yobe, Yola, gombe, Jos, Katsina, nasarawa and lived in Abuja for six years
