Who told you that Dangote ain't feeling the heat also? It only depend.of the level and the aspect of heat you are talking about. Everybody is feeling the heat presently in this country. The other day, didn't you see Dangote fighting tooth and nails with NNPC, the other day, he got fed and said if the government can pay him for his refinery, he was willing to sell it to the government. The other day, he said he was advised not to build that refinery by associates and he should have listen to them. So many instances to tell you that even rich people are feeling the heat also....When there is a leadership failure in any country, it always afflict everybody in that country. It's an affliction, just like corona virus, like Ebola...it quickly spread and infect everyone living in that country especially if you have a dunce as a leader........

So sad, I feel you and am even short of word. What an unfortunate time to be a Nigerian!

runningriot:
Honestly speaking the cost of living in Nigeria it is alarming! very much disturbing and the most painful thing now is that constructive criticism lands people in jail... God... like I am literally not married and my basic salary is not enough for me! Feeding, transport, family problems I don't want to talk about clothing and outfits because my fashion style is basically on okrika even though I am happy with that... Apparently, the pains and agony is excruciating and obvious! The government are not doing enough and not thinking about the common man on the street rather how to steal and enrich themselves.

It is imperative now that voting and electing good leaders is not certain because losers force themselves into power! People are suffering, parents are going crazy with bills. Tell me how can an average Nigerian family of 6 with basically 400-500k total income survive if two or three of their children are in the university or high institution? Can that money be enough for even two people if they are to live in a moderate and average income? Moreso, many family of 6 lives way too below that income. Haba geskia I am really sober with the state of Nigeria! 😭😭

We really need to be sincere with ourselves this time around, that's more reason I am always begging my eastern brothers to stop their insult against the Yorubas, we all need to join hands together and vote this man out of power. Igbo alone can't do it alone and like wise the Yorubas too but if you continue abusing and insulting each other, we might still get stuck with this failure in power.....

Wahabfuture:
Tinubu is a failure and must be booted out of Aso-Rock in January otherwise he will turn Nigeria to South Sudan

That's very true especially when you married a spouse that's not diverse in all areas or most areas of knowledge. Probably, you married cos your spouse is good in the other room, or cos the cooking is fantastic or cos of wealth. Those things gets you tired easily and the next thing to console yourself is social media. You need to get married to your friend and not just jump into passion centric marriage. It fades as quickly as it comes.......

Dpsychologist:
SOCIAL MEDIA IS QUIETLY BECOMING THE THIRD PERSON IN MANY MARRIAGES

One thing that genuinely worries me about this generation is how comfortable many people have become with exposing the most private parts of their relationships to complete strangers on the internet.

A husband and wife have a disagreement in the morning. Before they have even had the chance to sit down, calm down and discuss what happened, screenshots have already been uploaded, videos have been recorded, status updates have been posted, and thousands of people who know absolutely nothing about the relationship have been invited to judge, condemn and take sides.

What happened to resolving issues within the home first?

What happened to sitting down with the person you chose to spend your life with and having the difficult conversations that every marriage eventually requires?

What happened to protecting the dignity of your spouse even when you are angry with them?

What many people fail to understand is that social media is not a counselling centre. It is not a court of justice. It is not a place where people genuinely care about your marriage more than you do.

Most people following these stories are not emotionally invested in your happiness. They are entertained by the drama. They will leave comments, pick sides, throw insults, create assumptions, laugh at your pain, and then move on to the next trending topic as if your marriage never existed.

The sad reality is that many people no longer go online looking for solutions. They go online looking for validation. They are not asking, "How can we fix this?" They are asking, "Who can help me prove that I am right and my spouse is wrong?"

Once the comment section starts rolling in, objectivity disappears.

One group begins calling the husband toxic, wicked, useless and abusive.

Another group begins calling the wife disrespectful, manipulative and attention seeking.

Within a few hours, thousands of strangers have formed opinions about people they have never met based on a story they have only heard from one side.

What is even more concerning is how many people automatically assume that every story posted online is the complete truth. Life does not work that way. Relationships do not work that way. Most conflicts have context. Most arguments have history. Most reactions are connected to things that happened long before the camera was switched on.

When someone uploads a thirty second clip or writes a short paragraph about a disagreement, nobody watching truly knows what happened before that moment. Nobody knows the conversations that took place behind closed doors. Nobody knows the sacrifices both parties have made. Nobody knows the frustrations that may have built up over months or even years.

This is why mature people are always careful before rushing to judgment.

A marriage cannot survive when every misunderstanding becomes public content. Trust slowly disappears. Respect begins to erode. Resentment starts to grow. Before long, the couple is no longer solving problems together. They are performing for an audience.

Marriage was never designed to be governed by likes, shares, comments and reactions from strangers.

The strongest marriages are not necessarily those without disagreements. Every marriage has disagreements. Every marriage has moments of disappointment, frustration and misunderstanding.

The strongest marriages are those where both people understand that protecting the relationship is more important than winning public sympathy.

Not every argument deserves a Facebook post.

Not every disagreement deserves a live video.

Not every mistake deserves a public hearing.

Sometimes the person you should be talking to is not your followers, your online supporters or your comment section.

Sometimes the person you should be talking to is the same person sitting across from you at the dining table.

Because at the end of the day, when the comments stop, when the trends fade away and when the internet moves on to the next controversy, it is still you and your spouse who must live with the consequences.

A marriage that constantly seeks validation from strangers will eventually become a prisoner of strangers' opinions.

Think about that Nairalanders.

I wonder too o... 😂

Let me add one point you probably forgot to add.....

Always have a plan of the duration you intend to stay in a paid job. Don't waste your active youth pursuing someone else's vision and mission over peanuts. If you must stay cos of your rare input to the organization, request to be a shareholder or request for a bigger remuneration and better condition of service. Don't become useless and senile before they kick you out or you take the exit door.


quote author=Rapmoney post=139663651]This is one bitter truth you should always remind yourself of as an employee. It is even worse for people who work in organisations owned by one person or a particular family.

Your employer will never pay you what will make you have enough resources to live a comfortable life.

REASONS:
1. You will be in a better position to walk out of situations that you don't like in the workplace.

2. You will be in a better position to resign and start your own business.

Most Nigerian employers are just like the government. They give you just what is enough for you to survive, and not to succeed.

As an employer, you should realize that the people working for you also have their personal dreams and visions. Your business is your vision, and not theirs. So as they work for you to build your vision, the job should as give them the platform to build theirs. If your vision is being built, and theirs remain unachievable, then there is something wrong with you and your business system.

Last week, I attended a webinar where one of the so-called Nigerian industry giants was admonishing workers to be dedicated and put in their best. I didn't have any issue with that, but when he concluded by saying that salary doesn't matter, that what matters is passion and dedication, I shook my head. We have really lost it! You fly first class to different parts of the world. You buy choice properties. Your kids attend some of the best schools abroad. All from the proceeds of your business, and you open your mouth to tell me that salary doesn't matter?[/quote]

You are a true Nigerian and I understand your anger. Infact, I love the way you described those oblong empty headed men of SA. However, let's convert that anger against our incompetent leaders of Nigeria till they get out of power or we force them to do the right thing. If not the terrible government, I can tell you that 70% of those people in that dark hole of Africa called SA wouldn't be there in the first place......

Bunch of ungrætful and unfortunæte birchees
Here in Nigeria, we don't raise women to hate and harass people
We raise women like Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Dora Akunyili, Funmilayo Ransom-Kuti, Aisha Yesufu, Chimamanda Adichie, Ibukun Awosika
Women who are amazons in their various rights and fight to advance to cause of humanity not women who are gushing with the milk of hatred from their breasts which they feed their men
No wonder South African men have oblŏng heads
It's to contain the hate they've been fed from the cradle

Can we deduce that it's the Israel that remotely programmed the brain of the Iranian Soldiers to have brought down that Apache Helicopter so that Trump can be angered and retaliate. Israel can do anything in this life and I am thinking towards that possibility. If that's the case, probably that can be done on just few IRGC soldiers because if possible to be done on large population of their soldiers, then Israel can remotely control them to start killing one another..... 😂 😂 😂.....it's just a propaganda possibility......

UNAM -IKOT

Ojukwu got deceived by the British diplomats that pushed him to start a war against his country, even the shell oil payment balance and all the ammunition promised him to kill the Nigerians wasn't given to him either, and with that anger, he arrested the shell accountant general and put him in prison until the British government made him to release the shell accountant general. At this junction, we can see that Ojukwu wasn't matured and smart enough to have led and even started Biafra in the first place. He behaved like a dunce....... Leading a whole generation of people to death over what he didn't even know much about. Unprepared, weak and scared till he led them to their deaths.....

Kog45:
Yes he will meet his maker just like Ojuckwu who wasted souls and ran away.

That's probability. Coach can't determine who wins or lose. I believe England could win even with that German coach....records are meant to be broken my brother......

judewrites:
For the number I record, that means england won't win the world cup this year because they have a foreign German coach.

It's a pity....I have always supported england in international tournaments.

What about Brazil? I had a feeling they might win this world cup, but can they with a foreigner coach?

They should quickly replace the fingers with AI fingers 🤞 🤞 🤞 🤞

These Americans sha. Imagine being a $12.7 billion company and not knowing that BAT will always fall your hand consistently.

If BAT human beings are always malfunctioning and breaking down, why will BAT Drone be different?

Nigerians could have given you this advice free of charge.

You are perfectly right. You have a sharp eyes also, I never knew the car was a Lexus....was thinking Corolla......the kidnapping is definitely an arrangee or political motivated or probably someone just wanted to make fast money from the Adelabus through the ex minister........[quote author=Biodun1929 post=139642815]Fighting kidnappers in the forest is harder than fighting the ones in the city.

And yes, the kidnappers in thus case are southerners I knew they couldn't be Fulani when I saw the getaway car they drove away in after kidnapping the woman and her kids. They were driving a Lexus. These kind of kidnappers can be compared Evans.[/

That doesn't matter now and beside, you are only seeing 2 minutes video of a plan that took days and hours to plan. You can't expect all the analysis to be recorded in this 2 minutes video.....You don't know if those two were the one gunned down before gaining entrance into the premises. So many things shall still be explained properly later. Right now, rejoice for this breakthrough and let's wait for the bigger breakthrough of the release of the OYO abductees and other states also.......


.

SmartyPants:
Something about this story doesn't add up. The initial report claimed there was a shootout and two suspects were neutralised. As we can clearly see, there was no shootout, and the suspect we can see in the video was taken away in one piece.

This is a great and definitely would restore some little trust in our Police all over again. I know that out Police can work if actually set out to work. But there's something am trying to deduce here, those kidnappers, atleast the one I saw in the video doesn't look like a Fulani man to me......looks more like a Yoruba or Igbo man......Southern people in short cos I know Southern people look similar atimes.....

Good job anyway, but the major one should be done by rescuing the 48 people in the bush since over a month now and also the Ekiti, Kwara and Bornu abductees......Nigeria shall be Great again in our lifetime........

Sccarrr:
Good job to the npf....and some people are not happy about the rescue,they are on every social media platforms trying to downplay the work done by the npf saying it was arranged blablabla....same ppl wey believe Buhari was cloned😹

I wonder o

Ibrahimcoomasie:
Not everything should be recorded. You should have just wasted them.

It's so absurd that supporter of APC terrorists from sahel are now demanding and instructing or commanding Tinubu the CIC of Nigeria to implement Shari'a law in the state constitution of South West......it's so absurd, illiterate supporter of APC terrorists commanding a whole Commander-In-Chief of the Armed forces......shame

saintopus:
They requested for the implementation of Sharia Islamic laws, but it’s same muslem they are kidnapping for ransome and some died as Muslims even in their custody.
Even if the whole Nigeria 🇳🇬 is turned into an Islamic State, they will never stop their activities. So it is a big lie to say they will stop kidnapping if a strict Sharia law is observed.
This was what the Northerners where happy when the bombing and kidnapping was targeted to churches in the north until they sstarted kidnapping Muslims and bombing mosques as well.

I wouldn't be surprised if those wild animal's stomach has surgeon opened and stack with crispy dollars ......don't trust all these Nigeria politicians, they are the worst set of human species ever created by nature.......

This is a thought provoking write up you just did here.

It's unfortunate that Nigeria can't replicate the treatment the America gave to the 911 terrorists. Nigeria doesn't have a CIC that has a ball of steel. Nigeria lack all power and political conviction to deal a deadly blow and a barbaric violence on the devilish visitors.

Now, how do we make visitors learn in the language they would understand? How do we and where do we stand from, soldier?

Luckyymann:
They "terrorist" are visitors.
Those that flew planes into World Trade Center 9/11
Were of course visitors.

Now back to your question, if you welcome the visitors (terrorist) giving them a soft landing, then the South West would be conquered. It's left for you to decide.

You don't negotiate with terrorists, not minding whose life is at stake.
They are not invisible.

The solution; you give them a higher babaric violence, that's the only language they understand.

Na only you waka come?

Dantesi:
For some Nigerian fans, the moment they hear "Portugal," their minds immediately travel back to that painful 4-0 defeat in Lisbon four years ago. The names Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva still carry a certain fear factor. But football does not stand still, and this Super Eagles team is no longer the same side that was humiliated in 2022.
The biggest mistake Nigerian fans can make ahead of next week's friendly is assuming Portugal are unbeatable. Yes, they are a top European side. Yes, they will be preparing for the World Cup. But if Wednesday's draw against Poland taught us anything, it is that Eric Chelle is quietly building a team that refuses to be intimidated.

The Super Eagles have now arrived in Lisbon with confidence growing inside the camp. According to team spokesman Promise Efoghe, 19 players made the trip from Poland, with Alex Iwobi and Genk defender Christian Akpan already joining the squad. Samuel Chukwueze is also expected to arrive shortly, giving Chelle even more attacking options.
Many fans have focused on the late equaliser Nigeria conceded against Poland. While dropping a lead in stoppage time was frustrating, it should not erase the positives from that performance. Away from home, against a European opponent, the Eagles controlled large parts of the game and looked dangerous whenever they attacked.

Terem Moffi and Paul Onuachu both found the net, while Wilfred Ndidi once again showed why he remains one of the most important leaders in the squad. For long periods, Nigeria looked like the better team. One spectacular strike from distance should not suddenly turn a good performance into a disaster.
What makes this Portugal game interesting is that the pressure is completely on the hosts. Portugal are heading to the World Cup and will want to convince their supporters that they are genuine contenders. Nigeria, meanwhile, can play with freedom and use the occasion to test new combinations ahead of the 2027 AFCON qualifiers.
There is also a growing belief that Chelle's style is beginning to take shape. The Super Eagles no longer look like a collection of talented individuals waiting for moments of magic. There appears to be a clearer structure, better pressing and more willingness to keep possession under pressure.
The arrival of Alex Iwobi could be particularly important. Few Nigerian players are better at connecting midfield and attack. When Iwobi is confident, the entire team tends to play with more rhythm and creativity. Combined with Chukwueze's direct running and Moffi's movement, Nigeria have enough weapons to trouble any defence.

Some fans argue that Portugal's superior quality means the result is already decided. That mentality is exactly what Nigerian football needs to abandon. This is the same country that defeated Argentina at youth level, shocked defending champions in AFCON tournaments and consistently produced players capable of starring in Europe's biggest leagues.
Let's also not forget that Portugal themselves have weaknesses. Their defence has looked vulnerable against quick transitions, and several of their veteran stars are approaching the latter stages of their careers. If Nigeria presses aggressively and takes its chances, this match could become far more uncomfortable for the hosts than many expect.

The bigger picture is that these friendlies are about building a winning culture after the disappointment of missing the 2026 World Cup. Nobody can change what happened in the qualifiers. What matters now is creating a team capable of dominating Africa again and returning stronger for future tournaments.
So can Nigeria beat Portugal? Absolutely. It will not be easy, and Portugal will start as favourites. But football is not played on reputation. With Iwobi, Chukwueze and the rest of the squad joining a confident group already in Lisbon, Super Eagles fans have every reason to believe an upset is possible. The fear factor is gone. Now it is time to see whether this new-look Nigeria can back up the confidence on the pitch.
