This is a true life story and it's really a long epistle, so take your time to read it. Insults and advice are welcomed as well.

There is this girl we're dating in Nigeria, which I intend to Marry though eventually. It started that I got my student visa in Nov 2021, so instead of me coming alone and leaving her alone back home, I decided to get Married to her same Nov 2021 and same year I did my house warming, that was in December. So she moved in to my house and I traveled for my Masters in January 2022.

So I came in alone to put everything in place, renting apartment and starting my studies. It was really an heculeous task, my eyes see shege as I was unable to pass through verification / affordability check, so I had to offer 6 month upfront before I was later considered. By end of January, she started with she is feeling lonely and can't stay alone in the house, so I started processing her visa February and I went back to Nigeria during Easter to bring her myself, just to avoid unnecessary wàhálà at the POE.

The truth is you got married to a street girl. Your heartbreak just began.

Lagos Guber Election & Ethnic Tussle - My Take

A lot of people talk tongue in cheek when it comes to discussing real issues of governance and topical national issues. I don't know maybe they are afraid to really hit the nail on the head or because of clout chasing on social media.

I really don't care how anyone feels about me, once I am convinced, after thorough evaluation of the subject matter, I lay it bare without caring whose ox is gored. Nobody can blackmail me with the tag of "tribalist". It is too late in the day.

My association with southeaterners (Igbo) is too deep and it criss cross so many facets...ranging from friends of more than 25 to 30 years to marital associations...so people should stop using tribalism to blackmail people.

I expect an Igbo man to be proud of his heritage, while a Fulani, Hausa, Yoruba, Birom, Ibibio, Isoko, Igala, Ebira man too should be proud of his heritage just like everyone else. You are first a Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Fulani, Ebira or Ibibio man before you can claim to be Nigerian. One comes before the other. Collectively, we must all be proud of our Nigerianess.

Now, it is also a natural tendency to want to protect, defend, and stand by your tribe when there is a conflict of interest. It is innate in everyone. What makes the difference and why some people stand on the side of fairness in times like this, irrespective of the fact of the matter/situation is because of education, exposure and a real sense of justice, and their world view of life.

Tribal bigotry is as bad as racial bigotry. They are like siamese twins and these are serious social issues that cannot be airbrushed or wished away. Even in the most advanced nations of the world, racial issue, like tribalism still remains a very touchy and controversial issue that brings the worst out of people because everyone is always trying to defend his turf.

It takes leadership that understands the interplay of these issues that can walk through the landmines unscathed. That's why it is so funny that the most cosmopolitan city in Nigeria is enmeshed in this kind of problem right now, where you see a lot of people throw cautions to the wind and say things that are terrible.

It is pertinent to note that Lagos is not the only city with a cosmopolitan outlook in Nigeria. Kano, Kaduna, Port Harcourt, Calabar, Onitsha I believe should qualify to be called cosmopolitan but out of all these cities, Lagos has been the only one that has moved the needle in the real sense of being truly cosmopolitan because of the choices a leader took since 1999.

A city is not just cosmopolitan because it has different ethnic group residing and earning thier living within it. It is also because there has been a deliberate effort on the part of the leadership to let other ethnic groups who are not originally from that city have a say in governance. Lagos is the only city in Nigeria where there has been deliberate effort by her leadership to foster this type of integration.

The president-elect, Bola Tinubu was the first governor in this Republic to demystify this by appointing into his cabinet people from other ethnic group, especially Igbos in Lagos. Unfortunately, he's the most "hated" right now amongst the people of the same demography truth be told.

His major sin? I dont know. But one I believe he has been accused of most is that he has Lagos in his grip, and he determines who becomes what. It's ironical because in all other states of the federation, every former Governor have tried to replicate such hold on their states by picking their successors but they were never successful at it.

Peter Obi tried it in Anambra by picking a former ED of his bank to succeed him, within a year, they fell out. Orji Kalu picked his successor, his former chief of staff, Theodore Orji, later they fell out and became staunch enemies. Chimaroke Nnamani picked his successor, Sulivan Chime, a commissioner under him, also they fell out. Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom state picked his successor, Ndom Emmanuel, his SGF and after less than 2 years, they fell out bitterly and they are still on each other's neck as I write this.

There is no gainsaying the fact that Lagos State remains the best governed State in Nigeria in all ramifications. Even the harshest critic of Tinubu cannot fault him when it comes to his choice of leaders to govern Lagos over the years. They remains the best of men we've had in governance since 1999 when this Republic started. Even the sins of Ambode has nothing to do with under-performance, rather it is political.

There is too much hypocrisy on octane level. Your leaders in your various states wants to be like Tinubu. Fact is, they don't have what it takes to manage men and resources, that's why their is dearth of continuity and growth in your various state, yet you accuse Tinubu of holding Lagos by the jugular. Same thing your leaders tried and failed in, while Tinubu was successful at.

Lagos cannot be governed by a neophyte. This is not a state you put in the hands of a young man without any record of achievement, public or private apart from his enviable academic record. This has nothing to do with his maternal roots..and people should stop using that as an issue in this election. Gbadebo by his ancestry is a Lagosian - blue blooded Lagosian but governing Lagos is more than just being a son of the soil.

Governing Lagos is not what you support a candidate for out of anger or vengeance because your favourite presidential candidate lost an election. It means you don't care what happens to the continous, sustained, and meticulouslly planned development of Lagos. And you think throwing up tribal and ethnic connections would be the answer to your quest? Lagos is a Yoruba state and it would remain one. It is highly disrespectful to say it is a no man's land. What you can't take, don't throw it on other people's faces.

Also, for the rabble rousers who suddenly remembered that they are Yorubas and this is "our land". Quit the hypocrisy! Lagos is a cosmopolitan state with 3rd and 4th generation of Igbos who are even more Yorubas than some of you. My younger brother's wife was born in Surulere but her family is from Imo state. She knows no other place than Lagos. She's a Lagosian and there are many like her. She's even the one teaching my nephew and niece how to speak Yoruba language.

In the name of money making, some of you have sold your land & family heritage for a morsel, and all you do is disturb hardworking people who legitimately acquire land to build asking for "owo omo onile". It is high time government across board come up with laws to stop the sale of cultural heritage around our major cities. Prince Harry and William's Uncle, Charles Spencer (Princess Diana's brother) is the 9th Earl of Althorp.

Althorp is the ancestral land of the Spencers. Procured in 1508 by John Spencer. Althorp estate was bought from his family's sheep-rearing business. It remains today one of the most prominent stately homes in England. The mansion, estate and farm land dates to 1688. That's where Charles Spencer lives today overseeing the estate and they make money for its use by people around the world for marriage ceremonies.

Such estate and ancestral land abounds all over England from generation to generation. Nobody is selling them to the highest bidder. You don't sell your land heritage and start shouting that some people call your city a "no man's land". I am deeply in support of the fact that Igbos don't sell their ancestral land. Why should they? When they are not as st*pid as you lots.

People need to smell the coffee, quit hypocrisy and let Sanwoolu continue with his developmental stride in Lagos. Governance is a serious business. It is not a play thing to score cheap political points because you have a thin skin that cannot take a defeat.

Enough said...

HE HAS LIVED IN LAGOS SINCE 2011 AND BUILT HOUSE, SO THAT QUALIFY HIM TO MAKE SUCH IGNORANT STATEMENT ABI?



THERE ARE IGBOS AND NIGERIANS AT LARGE, WHOSE GRANDPARENTS WERE BORN IN LAGOS.



THEIR PARENTS BORN IN LAGOS AND THEY BORN IN LAGOS AND THEIR CHILDREN BORN IN LAGOS.




LAGOS IS NOBODY VILLAGE, IT IS A COSMOPOLITAN AREA AND A CITY, WHERE COMPLETE STRANGERS LIVE SIDE BY SIDE, USUALLY DIFFERNT TRIBES.




SO IT IS ON THAT BASES WE SAY LAGOS IS NO MANS LAND, BECAUSE WE ARE ALL STAKE HOLDRES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF LAGOS AS OUR CITY STATE.

But that does not erase the fact that the aborigines are the real owners of the land

Tonybacanister it's been a while. Hope all is well?

Really

Proud of you the people of Ekiti. Your state indeed is the fountain ⛲ of knowledge

BluntCrazeMan:
**(NOTE: A “SUPREME-COURT-ORDER” IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM “SUPREME-COURT-JUDGEMENT”, EITHER IN SUBSTANCE OR IN AUTHORITY..)


So, let us go straight to the series of Questions...

1. Between a “Supreme-Court Order” and a “Presidential Address”, which one supersedes the other??


2. Between a “Supreme-Court Judgement” and an “Executive Order” by the President, which one supersedes the other??

3. Between the powers and authorities of the Judicial Arm of Government, and those of the Executive Arm of Government, which one supersedes the other??



I'm here to learn more about the interpretation of the constitution with regards to the powers that be.

A better appreciation of the concept of the Rule of Law and the doctrine of Separation of Powers by the three arms of Government could have saved our nation.
The concept of the Rule of Law says before the law, all are equal, the Constitution is supreme and fundamental rights must be respected. The doctrine of Separation of Powers states that the three arms of Government are equal partners and no one is subservient to the other. However, there must be checks and balances so that none becomes power drunk. It is the duty of and within the prerogatives of the head of the Executive arm of Government to make an Executive Order giving effect to the redesign of the Naira in line with the provisions of the relevant laws. Note that there are also procedures laid down pre and post the process under reference. Some Governors of certain States have approached the Judiciary to invoke its jurisdiction in order to challenge the exercise of the Powers of the head of the Executive arm and they filed an application praying the court to order the Executive arm to maintain the status quo pending the determination of the substantive suit and the apex court has granted that order. Initially, the Executive arm flouted that Order. Now it has observed to obey in flagrant breach by Variating the said Order. Does the Executive have such powers? I would say no. An Order of Court must be obeyed until same is set aside. Someone should please tell Mr President that no arm of Government is subservient to the other and he is not above the law.

Julius Berger is doing a massive construction there, thank God for tinubu for bringing in sanwo olu to outsmart Ambode and fasola achievement

Without doubt Sanwo Olu is really working, but i feel the beauty of Lagos system of governance that makes it different from other states is that projects execution still continue one regime after another

The omoluabi ethos is dead

Y'all are just crooks, dummies and tinubu-worshippers these days so find somewhere to sit down and stfu

Who's this "thing" looking for cheap recognition? 🤷

I am in need of limestone miners/supplier. Please if you have credible lead kindly recommend.

NOTE: I'm not in for advance payment.
I want to deal with the real miner/supplier (trying to avoid long chain as I'm also supplying to make my own little gain, I'm an advocate of Win Win business model)
If you have it, your price is good and it's confirmed it's real , we are ready to deal.

There really should be a rule that should state that a Nairaland account is liable to being blocked for a week iF a useless or Stoopid thread is created.

Blame the mod that pushed this to FP.

You paid N49million for 30 units of buses.
Which is less than 1.3m per bus. This is how you want to patronize your country.

Innoson was founded in 2007
Toyota was founded in 1937
And you want Innosson to be like Toyota. The government of Japan funded Toyota why innoson started and funded itself from the scratch.

The government of Sierra loan bought vehicles from Innosson and have not had any problem but Nigerians instead of supporting their own brand keeps marketing their brand because he is an Igbo man.

Obi is coming and Nigeria shall be great again.

Oga read very well and comprehend, the said amount is just for 1unit 30 seater Bus. 🤔

Op. There is an adage in my language that " The fly that want to die prematurely will always enter the grave with the corpse/dead body. My prayer for you is that such will not be your case.
Are you ok at all? Fine abortion is not the right thing to do, talking from the point of moral justification, but will you now force her not to do what she's hell bent on doing? Forget about the argument that it's ur first seed, she doesn't see it that way. You have 10's of millions of seed in your groin so common man wake up an be a man!
Perhaps you are under a spell invoked by her on you, otherwise someone who disrespected everything you stand for and you are still talking about love.
My man grow up joo

2 clueless countries giving themselves clues.
Our farmers are without farms only because they're even lucky to be alive and jobless. Our fertile farmlands have become general grazing areas and our market women can't sell grains because they're expensive and almost bloodied.

People that can't farm because of Terrorism are collecting grains from another country that equally can't produce its own because of a war with mother Russia.

You are absolutely right in the area of insecurities that have plagued farming in Nigeria, but if the issue of insecurity can be addressed effectively and reduced to the barest minimum, i see benefit in this partnership having in mind that there will be exchange of knowledge/technology that enhances the success of grain production as achieved by Ukrainian farmers.

I am dating a lady, and we are about to get married. She's already carrying my baby.
I have taken her to my parents. I have never taken a lady to my parents before. I have seen her parents too, and have communicated my intention to marry their daughter.

The only thing holding me now is to get things in order before paying her dowry.

The main problem now is that we keep having issues, coz, she's always making calls with her exs. i have confronted her on Several occasions, we have had fights, physical fights as well.

She told me she dont have the guts to tell them to stop calling her. She can only keep playing them till they walk away.
I told her i dont have that Luxury of patience. She has to choose between me and her exs.

Now, the issue is that she's pregnant and I have already taken her to my parents, they all like her.

I would have broken up if not because of the pregnancy. Coz, I wouldn't want to leave her with the pregnancy like that. To make matters worse, She have a kid out of wedlock. Though the father of the baby and her are not in good terms.

I hhave told her to stop making calls with her ex, but she seems sturbon.
She's ready for me to Change her sim card but I want her to use her sanity and end things with her ex in a boldly manner rather than hiding under the guise of changing sim. I have registered a new sim, but It's still with me, I have not given her.

Am confused, I need you guys advices for way forward.
No think insult, coz I gaht over dose.
Peace.....

If she can't keep her EX at bay far from your relationship how sure are you that she's carrying your baby?
