Have u imagined begging ur sister for money from bizness that is ur own inheritance, and sh will ignore u and go to skl...

The sis is a lecture and she placed a manager there but comes back twice a week to supervise them

What exactly do you mean by your own inheritance, did he work for any of it?? I don't understand how youths of these days reason, so he felt he would live a wayword life and inherit what he did not build so he can burn it to the ground and bring the family back to poverty abi??

He should better take responsibility for his life and forget about any inheritance, if the dad was like him would he have had anything for the son to aspire to inherit?, If there was nothing to inherit, what would he have done...die abi??, When he is ready to be responsible I am sure things will change.

Verysmart101:
How have the 13% helped ur region? If ur region wanna truely be free,fight the NDDC leader's cos they are tremendously corrupt.

You guys sit and ask funny questions....well I can't speak for other states but it has helped my state Akwa Ibom a lot, even though a lot more would have been done if not for corruption, I know what my state was like before the derivation and other programmes.

backbencher:
At the end, they brought the problem on themselves now they are trying to beg.

You guys in the name of resource control made things tough for business .Now they have gone and you realise that you needed them after all...

Okay

They did what they had to do to get the government to start focusing on the plight of the region whose lands were being destroyed, and their states suffering financially despite carrying the financial burden of the country.

Their agitations even though to extremes at some point is what brought about the 13% derivation, the Niger Delta development commission and intervention programmes in that region

The region was ignored until they decided to pick up arms, that seems to be the only language the Nigerian government understands...

The same way it's negligence over the years has led to the desolation of Maiduguri and parts of the north east by Boko haram and same thing happening in the northwest by bandits.

In extreme cases one needs to destroy to rebuild, to die so we might live.

esthel:
According to which of the Nigerian Laws ? In case of a divorce if the court sees that she is capable of taking care of the child financially and in other aspects they will give her custody. You people carried patriarchy to law. If there is any law that says otherwise please let us know. Her parents seems like they are educated and Informed so Oga is in for a ride.

So in your thinking, once she is capable of taking care of the child the court will just give her custody and ask the father of the child to leave the child's life abi?? Well-done ma!!

WHERE IS HE WORKING TO RAISE A MILLION DOLLARS, IS IT NOT CHURCH MONEY? WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO GIVE OUT MONEY YOU'VE BEEN GIVEN WITH HOPE OF MORE PSYCHING TO GET MORE, HE COULDN'T MENTION WHERE HE GAVE THE MONEY BECAUSE THE MONEY ENDED IN HIS. INVESTMENT THE CHURCH. IF SALVATION MINISTRIES IS THE ONLY CHURCH I WILL NOT ATTEND ANY. THE TIME COMETH AND NOW IS WHEN THE TRUE WORSHIPPERS WOULD WORSHIP. THE FATHER IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.

Which one is church money....was he the one that told you it was church money? Or were you the one that donated the money to the church, park well joor....All you guys do is say rubish emotionally without any facts to substantiate it.

Abilistic:
Do not overwork to be rich; because of your own understanding, cease! Will you set your eyes on that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away like an eagle toward heaven” (Pr 23:4-5).


When one of the world’s wealthiest men died recently, a reporter asked a family member, “How much did he leave?” The relative replied, “All of it!”
No matter how much money you make, save, invest, or keep, eventually your money will leave you or you will leave your money.

You guys should stop justifying poverty and understand how money works...no rich business man or wealthy person just sits and prints money, they are wealthy cos there created value and usually for every billionaire, there are thousands of millionaires under him, or that came up one way or the other through his businesses...

You guys keep criticizing the rich but yet complain that Nigerians are poor, how exactly are Nigerians supposed to rise or dem use poverty curse Una

Instead of thinking about how to liberate yourself and your immediate family at least, it's to keep criticizing ...

Being wealthy is not about money in itself, only unintelligent people think so....it's about time recovery and redemtion, for Christ sakes do you guys want to spend the rest of your lives running the rat race not knowing where the money for food, rent, school fees will come from??

If not for anything you guys should think of your children and give them an opportunity at a life worth living so they can also do same for their children....that is how families are lifted out of strive and poverty... Keep waiting for our corrupt government to share money and change things automatically o.

rooftops:
He said he gave one million dollars to his church, money wey dey go back to am. Why he no give fatoyinbo church

You guys should at least be truthful even in your criticisms....he said he gave one million dollars, he never mentioned he gave it to his church, it is written up there, go back and read and criticize with reason.

QuickTrade:
Amos 3:3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

You abused her belief from the beginning and that's where you laid a wrong foundation.

Secondly, you lost her when you were in a fight concerning her commitment to church activities. You knew what she stood for and went ahead to marry her without intention to align, and now want to change the other. That's an abuse.

Brother, you are lucky to have married a praying woman, instead of encouraging her the reverse was the case.

Way out is God factor. Awake to the path of Godliness. Keep your ego aside, dialogue with her on a neutral level and seek God for mercy. Reawaken her spiritual consciousness and align with her. You helped made her week and that opened the door to the enemy. Closing the door calls for both of you working together. Stay blessed

What did I just read for Christ sake, so the husband was not comfortable with the wife spending everyday in church and she cheats on him cos of that and you have found a way to justify it?? How you guys have trivialised infidelity...

Isaacpromise1:
As much as we don’t know her side of the story, but as per your own explanation.

You need to fix your life ASAP; and stop expecting anything from her, father or anyone else, if they assist it’s fine, if they don’t, you move on.

Don’t you think by now, your mum or your parents should be eating the fruit of their labor and not some unnecessary billing from you, it might be part of the silent issues too

Have you tried having a mother-son deep conversation with your mum too?

Like my pastor once said, “something must happen for something to happen” your mother can’t just turn that bad to you overnight, try to find out what went wrong

You read everything he wrote and your talking about him needing to fix his life, what exactly do you think he is trying to do with work and the hustling...

Every right thinking person knows he should bless his/her parent eventually but at least let the guy stand on his feet, it's not like the mother or family are poor so you guys should ease up on this parents eating fruit of labour and putting young people under unneccesary pressure...

When the fruits come, they will definitely eat it...for now if the mum can't support him, she should at least allow him hustle and stand on his feet...the one about her pressuring him to get married is even crazy...

To the OP, don't hate ur mum for your own sake, there is a curse that comes with dishonour of parents, just try to avoid her as much as you can and work harder.

nairaman66:
The northern hegemony are muscling the west and every other region!

I don't equally like Malami and not particularly happy with the way the governor of Lagos was treated by the CSP but we must not be over emotional and start being tribal...

It was a judgment by the supreme court, and the judgement was in favour of fellow Yoruba people whose lands were taken illegally, so what's with the north oppressing south in this case....

We keep talking about how we want justice but one is given and somebody will not here word...
The Lagos state government should have found a way to settle those guys before this whole thing...

How can judgement be given since 1993, then 2012 and nothing happens...imagine you you or a family member was the one...

chatinent:
The way men pick on irrelevant things these days now amuse me.

About the part you said her bro was asleep and she woke him up to serve him, it smells a bag full of lies said to solidify your points.

It's funny how you think his point is irrelevant but conveniently claimed he is lying about the part you feel might be an issue...stop being a hypocrite.

ArewaNorth:
I didn't say anything that seems like attacking South, I have utmost respect for Southern oil input to Nigeria's survival especially in Govt sector but in that state less than 1.3% are civil servants while the rest survive on farming and other businesses!

Noted bro

Eastcoastboy:
Words from a wise man. Nigeria's problem is lack of love and the bible said Love conquers all. South hate the North, the North hates the South, the west are in between comfortable being a mediocre, swinging to where benefits them at any given situation. Nigeria ehn!

Abi o my brother...we will keep trying to get better for our ourselves, our families and our country.

ArewaNorth:
I'm working in SS I used to see half of the rice people eat there in the name of foreign rice mostly from Jigawa but I hardly see anything from south in Jigawa except processed products from Lagos and Ogun. More than 80% of Jigawa State people are farmers and Agriculture constitute major stake of our GDP. Nigeria has $400b GDP; look at the GDP of different sectors and commodities in Nigeria and assess who control the major stake of Nigeria's economy: Accommodation, food, transportation and real estate: 12.2%, Education, health, science and technology: 6.3%, Farming, forestry and fishing : 30.5%, Manufacturing, mining and quarrying: 11.3%
Retail, maintenance, repair, and operations: 24.9%
Managerial, finance and insurance: 4.2%
Telecommunication, arts and entertainment: 1.8%
Other services: 8.8%.
Going by the given statistics above it can be seen that Education, health, science and technology, Entertainment, manufacturing, Telecommunication, arts and entertainment that u may claim to have more input are not up to 30.5% of GDP contributed by farming and fishing mainly done by a reasonable proportion of Jigawa people while all other businesses ur people do, Jigawa people are either into them too.

There has never been any case of Boko Haram or banditry in Jigawa, infact it is the most peaceful state today in Nigeria.
Ranting out of bigotry and fanaticism isn't a choice but concrete reasons and points!

You could have just made your point without making it seem like you are attacking the south South... All that needs to be done is for oil production to be brought to a halt for 2 months and ur darling jigawa will not be able to pay salaries or carry out any meaningful development again...

This is not a good thing and I hope one day every state becomes self sustainable, but for now...stop throwing around statistics that does not translate into reality and stop bashing other regions, I would say same thing to the person you quoted, let's all just do our best so we are able to at least lift ourselves and our immediate family members so we don't add to the burden of the country.

Karlovych:
He will continue to prey on the gullible sheep that cannot think for themselves, Jesus never owned a donkey or a school in Bethlehem, Galilee, Judea or Nazareth.
He fed the poor, healed the sick whenever he ministered to people unlike these ones that only need you to sow a seed to enrich themselves and their families.

It's funny how you guys compare the life lived over 3,000 years ago and now...in those days, they also walked for months or years from one destination to the other, men wore robes and slippers,the world's population was at its worst when came to standard of living...it's funny how you guys equate poverty and suffering to serving God...

SARSCoV2:
You talking like a layman. You don’t give a personality like KWAM1 that amount in serenes the media will capture it. Do you know KWAM1? I am certain you don’t know.

I do know who KWAM1 is, I did not see any sign of anger from KWAM1 from the video, plus Davido even prostrated as a sign of respect to his elder so I don't see what the problem is.

WibusJaga:


Some of these pastors like making controversial statements just to draw attention.
But what he should have said was Marriage does not guarantee your happiness. Some people find joy & fulfilment in marriage while others experience hell on earth when they get married, especially married to the wrong spouse.

I think the idea is that, it is not the marriage itself that makes those that are happy in it happy but the individual attitudes of those in it...
A sadist cannot expect to get married and automatically become happy.
Don't look for healing in marriage, achieve what you think will make you happy or at least be in the process including becoming a better person for yourself first.

SARSCoV2:
Small pikin…

You gave KWAM1 $4000, and still let it make the media pages

Smh….

Doubt nigga knows KWAM1.

You should reason more intelligently...all he did was give, was he supposed to tell all the camera people there to put their cameras off? You guys just like causing wahala where there is non

God1000:
Does borno state government have enough resources to cater for all the affected communities singlehandedly?

Why stopping NGOs from providing assistance, the role of NGOs and other international organizations in war torn places is crucial because they can deliver emergency supplies to more people than government.

In Nigeria government officials are known for diverting money, foods and other items into personal use

I think the idea is to prevent this communities from perpetually depending on hand outs and start rebuilding their lives...feeding thousands to millions forever is non sustainable, and there is that tendency of people to become lazy and not try to stand on their feet seeing as they are been provided for...

Of course the whole process has to be properly coordinated and done gradually...

And yes, you are right about our government officials looking for opportunities to steal.

ShobayoEmma:
looking for cheap public sympathy ahead of her child appearance in court.
Eye for an eye

Can't you read?? Why not read what she wrote and verify it before typing what I don't know, that's how you guys get innocent people killed.

Kobojunkie:
So you are saying this man lied about wanting only one kid to begin with? So if the wife never dies or abandons him,he will be content with one child, if not, he willl want to have more children, even though he still gets to have and keep the one?

Do you even realize what having something "logical" to say even means? You are right that trying to sound intelligent and being intelligent are two completely different things indeed

I think people should be very careful what they ask of others, like the other guy you quoted mentioned, if for some reason they get a divorce or something happens to her, nobody prays for this though...this agreement means he is not to marry again, and if he does he can't father a child with the other lady...

I do not see most women agreeing to this...
The man obviously does not want one child and is probably thinking about the future including what the person you quoted mentioned... Oga should have just quietly told her no and moved on, I don't know why people like complicating their lives.

The woman on her part is very selfish..you ask someone to make such a huge sacrifice and you are not willing to

Kobojunkie:
What is wrong with wanting just one kid?

Must all your kids friends and companions come from the same sac and womb?

Are you an only child?? If you are cool...if not abeg rest!!, an only child is telling you what it feels like and you are typing what I don't know...

mikkeyvirus:
Because it worked for you doesn't mean it'll work for others

It worked before he tried...you can't decide not to do anything and say it will not work, if everybody that is treated unjustly fights for their right eventually the problem will be too much for these institutions to handle and they start doing more to protect their customers.

nextBIGthing:
Thanks for your comment

She isn’t that extravagant in spending like buying luxuries.
She just spends unwisely and don’t plan for important things
Like at the end of the day she won’t be able to even account what and what the money was spent on

You seem to be defending her, how does a 22 year old spend 100k in a week and can't account for what she spend on and you say she is not extravagant, anyways...like you mentioned, you are a young man just starting life, the last thing you need now is a gf being a burden financially when the money stops coming to her as frequently

Tovard:
I don't really understand why Nigeria leaders lack vision for a greater nation like ours!

What would be the economy advantage of this bridge rather than building small and medium size industries around the state. We are not ripe for this kind of bridge in a nation where maintenance culture is not practiced or valued.
It is like it will be use to generate revenue but they would keep budgeting money year in and year out for an invincible maintenance, we really need a visionary leaderships not visionary thieves in the name of leaders!

I come in peace...

Is it the government that should build small and medium scale businesses?... or it should create the enabling environment for its citizens to build their businesses, infrastructural developments is part of that which is what I see here, I don't see any problem with this.

A very very informative post that should be front-page worthy.

Let's keep sharing the word to help our youths and kids from self-destruct.

I am certain u don't know wat u re talking about... China and India should have the worst currency in the world.. USA should also have one of the worst currency due to thr huge population...

Instead of you to shut up and learn.. U want to form woke..

Now u Don disgrace your self

He explained why their currency is strong despite their population which is as a result of a very productive economy as opposed to Nigeria that runs a consumption economy, instead of giving a counter argument you decided to insult him, it is you who does not understand how the economy works, go and read and stop insulting people for stating the correct thing .

Damnnn niggar
Not surprised...it is a normal thing




This are some of the things that comes along side the struggle for secession, emancipation and uprising

There will be anarchy, lawlessness ....some miscreants will take advantage while the real fighters for freedom will be fighting.....just like end sars protest

But when the secession finally comes.... there comes the light.....and orderliness....but not in all case....orderliness never returned to Libya till this day

Although am not an ardent supporter of biafra and oduduwa but I will keep on saying it the way it is...because am a real niggarrr

Yea right...I am sure this is the same thing the Libyans and Eritreans thought when they were fighting their seperatist wars.

ScamHunter:
Oga, you said nothing new. That Fulani are already ruling in Yorubaland is no news. What could be news is that your Baale and Baloguns are already kotowing to them. This is the consequence of putting your belle before your life. Afterall, the reason you all betrayed Sunday Igboho and are against the Igbo is that the Igbo are aginst Fulani domination knowing that if Igbo succeed, that the free crude oil you all lust after would be gone. Kwantinue...very soon, Ilorin would be replicated all over Yorubaland. The good news is that it is good news to the Yoruba Muslim Afonjas. I only pity the the rest. Keep putting belle first...

We all know there is so much injustice in the country but please help me understand how the success of Igbo translates into some people loosing the free crude oil?

Jashub:
[s][/s] They'll only get pregnant and become a liabilities to me and society , but that's besides the point here . However ,you fail to understand that security and soldering are a man's job : so tell your government to let men do their jobs ,because that's the role God gave men .

Oh...now I understand how you think, sorry I quoted you earlier, my mistake. Have a nice day.

Go and try fighting one of them and find out if they are special forces or not...you guys will just sit in your houses typing nonsense about people protecting fellow citizens.

degamonn:
What criteria did they use in selection of the Projects that almost 9 out of the total are located in Niger State alone? So Niger and Kwara states are the representative of North-Central. Is it that Tanker drivers don't use other roads in other Part of North-Central?

Close to 79% of cargo from north to south passes that route.
