Autos / Need To Charter A Bus (at Least 18 Seater) For A Trip Within Lagos by wackpoet(m): 8:46pm On Jun 10, 2022
Like the subject said, my colleagues are having an event and need to charter a bus from the Lagos mainland to Lekki. The trip, the event and the return trip would last about 8 hours give or take. Does anyone have links to transport companies that offer this, or contacts of drivers that can do this and price. Please let it be affordable o. Abeg.
Politics / Re: Dr Chinelo's Death: Joyebeneza, The Most Heartless Tweet I Have Seen On Twitter by wackpoet(m): 8:14am On Mar 30, 2022

This is heartless and cruel.






When Abba Kyari died from COVID 19, many of you spat on his grave. You opined that he deserved to die, what was his offence that made you hate him, even in death?

WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND
Your brand of mental illness must be of a psychotic nature for you to compare the gruesome death of this innocent, young, medical talent at the hands of terrorists enabled by bastards like Abba Kyari. I hope a thousand Abba Kyaris and all his ilk die the worst kind of death. And I pray the same death visits you and all who support this wicked adminstration.

You lot are hypocrites.

Address people so they can as always twist it out of context and use it as the pretext for anarchy.

Try again.
It went south because you unfortunate lots hired thugs to disrupt the protest and make it violent. You sow the wind, you reap the whirlwind.

Last time Buhari said Nigeria youth were lazy.

youths were angry, I too was angry.

but as an objective and rational person, I went to search for the video, I found it. replayed it almost 500 times, in slow motion.

guess what, the man never made such statement, we were putting words into his mouth.

No wonder the man has been avoiding interviews

I would not comment on anything until I watch the video for myself.

God give me data

Too bad
I believe the girl must have done something wrong before those muddafucckers decided to pay her back this way, the piece of note found on her can prove that, but be has it may be she doesn't deserve this evil act. She doesn't deserve to die.


You must be very mad. You and everyone who liked this post. You are a rape apologist and potential murderer. How can you try to justify this dastardly act ?

Fixey:
You are short sighted. Very short sighted. Is your jobless better than the 50% for four months for goodness sakes

You are looking at the job, you don't know the relationship he has maintained to have the job and access. Please work on your values. However wrong we may say this is, it's just a short term burden and you'll have your freedom.

What are you even saying sir? Why are you encouraging such wickedness ? I understand the man is doing him a huge favor by giving him an in to a " coveted " job, and he can ask for appreciation in some form. But 50% ? For four months ? How much is transport to and fro the place? If the place is in a different location, what of accommodation? Feeding ?
I suspect you are probably doing this to someone else, that is why you are defending this behavior. Let us learn to help people genuinely abeg, life is already hard, and Nigeria might as well be hell fire. Stop using your influence to fan other suffering people's flames of poverty and suffering.

Politics / Re: Sanwo-Olu Commissions Ajeromi Ifelodun LG Secretariat Burnt During EndSARS Riots by wackpoet(m): 4:37pm On Feb 20, 2021
You can see how the Lagos State government is now referring to what was a legitimate protest as a riot. Same thing that was done to Aba Women, who were also killed as they protested. A couple of decades down the line, those whose kids are unfortunate to grow in Nigeria would learn of the "EndSars riots" in Social Studies. And that is how history is rewritten.

I suspect the girl decided, of her own free will to convert to Christianity and the MURIC folks are trying to pin it as a kidnapping because they don't like that narrative and want to fuel ethnoreligious crises.

Career / Re: This Man's Salary Went From ₦25K To ₦800K Monthly by wackpoet(m): 7:38pm On Aug 11, 2020
Wow. I have got to say I just read two of your interview series bigcabal and they've been the most interesting and inspirational thing for a young struggling boy in this Nigerian economy. I'm super happy for the interviewed guy whose financial situation has greatly improved. It just goes to show the importance of not giving up. I am curious as to what gigs resulted in getting up to 800k monthly.

Also this is equally front-page worthy. Lalasticlala

Funny how I love the red sands. Its one if the most beautiful things that remind me of home. The structures while old and washed still look strong which underscores quality. A lot of remodelling needs to be done I agree, but I feel the school should retain some of it's historic buildings and aesthetic, and just retouch and refine them.
Nsukka is one of the most written about schools in Nigerian literature.
I'm not even from UNN. I am a product of the greatest Akokites of Unilag, but I admire richness of history and natural beauty when I see one.

purples25:
I'm here for some opinions and correction/criticism.
.
Firstly, I don't think Nairaland readers are the best judge of your literary works. That's because there's a wide pool of characters here and as can be seen from comments a lot of them do not have the patience to sit and digest a good story. They need fastfood information. Simple, cliche, sensational. Keep writing though. I'd try to check your works when I'm free.

This is honestly the best thread I've read in my years on Nairaland. If there's a way to pin this permanently to the front-page, please Seun should do so. Your strength is inspirational. Thank you so much for sharing. Do consider writing as a side hustle. Your life story though sad would make for an incredible read. It could be a hobby for your free time. You could get professionals to proof-read and edit and ask on Nairaland for help in publishing. Regardless keep up the fighting spirit. God bless you chief.

Literature / Re: Chimamanda Adichie Names The 4 Writers That Changed Her Destiny by wackpoet(m): 9:35am On Jan 28, 2019
PearlStreet:


Bro, that's the sad truth.

That's how most Igbos see other Nigerians. Igbos and others.

Chinua Achebe carried this same bitterness in him and that's why he wrote the last piece of trash he wrote. In fact, GEJ was so pissed that he didn't give Chinua Achebe a state burial and Chinua was buried like a dog.

Do you know that till today, as eternally stupid as it sounds, most Igbos still blame Soyinka for not allowing Chinua Achebe win a Nobel.

One was arguing with me last year that Achebe didn't win a Nobel cos he supported Biafra. I had to remind him the Soyinka supported Biafra and in fact, was jailed for supporting Biafra. As at when Soyinka was jailed for Biafra, Chinua Achebe was travelling around the world, sleeping with college girls in America.

Chumamanda is just a chip off the old block: clannish, tribalistic, bitter and frustrated feminist.
I think the problem here is comprehension. She was at an Igbo cultural event. She was speaking on her writing influences that are Igbo. She was stating her opinion. You are a bigot.

Science/Technology / Re: Top 10 Major Scientifical Discoveries Of 2018 by wackpoet(m): 8:45pm On Jan 26, 2019
Conspiracist:
#4: The holy grail of paleontology
In September of 2018 a group of Australian scientists managed to finally identify a fossil that's been stumping experts since its discovery in 1947.

Found near the White Sea in Russia, this 5.1 centimeter-long oval-shaped fossil with symmetrical ribs was given the name Dickinsonia.

The creature died in a place that, back then, was a great ocean, meaning it was more than likely an aquatic creature, or at least able to survive in ancient waters. "Dick"insonia went unclassified for over seven decades but has finally been proven to be an animal. It's considered to be the holy grail of paleontology, as Dickinsonia is actually an animal that lived 558 million years ago. This makes it the oldest animal ever discovered and likely one of the first complex living things to exist on Earth.

I know these names are often given based on Latin, but come on, "Dick"insonia? Okay, we gotta name this thing. A lot of people are gonna be saying its name. Dick insonia. grin That's gonna be funny. grin

I didn't touch her. I just found my " dick" in Sonia.

guy I'm telling you. I didn't sleep throughout yesternight. Current affairs was a weak point for me in the first round, where I performed poorly, so I put in more work for the second. Though it saddened me that less of current affairs were asked, I took it as an added bank of knowledge. I didn't do so well, but it has open my eyes to try out other opportunities.
