I insist that they still learners by our side. Infact, we are the corrupting influence on their culture cos I remember those days of Jerry Rawlings, I have never seen them so proud. They not perfect but they still better in terms of integrity. Our leaders are far from it.

No mind d guy. South Africa's power cuts started recently. Na we dey wan copy.
I have South Africans I work with and they will tell you that their power authority will warn them of how long the power will be off. It was 4hours off before, but now it's 10hours+.

Is it not Nigeria that light will go off without warning and can last for days again? Coupled with the estimated billing?

These days, na to keep quiet and hustle for yourself and family. Mumu must wake up or die this time around.

It is because that one is already too high. You guys don't understand what is going on. Any new government that comes in creates an artificial tax on something that people will be paying. The high vehicle license fees means that we are still paying the former president that increased it.

This one now is for Tinubu and the cronies it is meant for.

That's why, if there seems to be any new president that will look into all the billings nigerians are paying, even former government officials will fight him/her because, he/she will cut their feeding bottle.

GAZZUZZ:
All they had to do was increase vehicle license by ₦1k instead of this confusion .

Senu please that ad that pops up b4 I click a topic is not 4ny.

E be like u never understand the kain person d guy be. Since when he say that as a non-muslim, you must swear to Allah and Mohammed before you comment on a Muslim thread, na there I know say he's unethical. Then allowing sensitive bigotted statements during the elections confirmed it. Na him luck, him site don blow. He fit do as e like.

Thank God say Proverbs 31 dey. It's because a lot of women have been so lazy to the point that men are now confused to what a good wife brings to the marriage.

Marriage between Ibibio and Igbo dey sweet shaa.. very fine offspring

You get pictures?

lhordspy:
Nothing here to see. Just a girl acting by the script, playing to the gallery . It is all part of the play.

This Chef hilda's vs Chef Dammy's brouhaha has really opened my eyes to how an average Nigerian thinks and operate as human. People, most especially the social media peeps are automatically wired to social media influencers and artistes. They cant think for themselves, they are like sheeps, gullible zombies who only likes what the influencers like, move in the direction they follow. They only appreciate and cheers on what the popular influencers and artiste like. So anything other than that, outside the validation of this 'higher humans', is condemnable and unworthy to them.

Hilda capitalised on this well. She played the game very nice. She paid big influencers and artiste for publicity before going into the cook-a-thon. They publicised and promote her to their gullible followers whose only existence in life is to reflect, to mirror their validations. So any other person outside that circle, is seen as opportunist, a fake, or as someone not worthy of been cheered or champion.

Just like the case of Chef dammy. Most of this gullible followers criticising and attacking her, see her as fake, as unworthy just because the 'higher humans'; the influencers and artiste which they worship, havent given her their validations. So the followers see nothing good in her quest for recognition. To hell with her ! They say.

Humans who cant think for themselves. Who cant make decisions for themselves unless they are been influenced. You see them with big phones, speak and type big grammar, but have the brain as small as a single grain of sand divided into four places...

Knowing how bigoted you are I will say this:

Imagine if it was an Igbo girl who started challenging the record which a yoruba girl won, you would be saying the complete opposite of what you are saying now.

But I am not here on tribal issues.
Where was the Dammy girl before? Na now she see record wey she suppose break? Why not try to break a similar record but with a different swing to it? Why must it be the same record as if she doesn't want to celebrate others but want others to celebrate her. That's the point people are trying to make.

IbeOkehie:


Well I'm Igbo and I can say property rights are not better protected even in the village. I'm from Nkwerre in Imo State. I know people who've bought land or thought they bought land within our villages and it's provoked very protracted long term disputes. It happens a lot in Aba and Owerri same as in Lagos or Abuja.

Even abroad we can't seem to be able to agree on and follow rules or figure out ways to resolve disputes productively. The Igbo Union USA is in shambles, the Nkwerre USA Union is in shambles, split into at least 3 factions AFTER a federal court case right here in the USA. It's a shameful story really. I resigned from the Union 20 years ago and predicted at the time it would end in shambles and it did. Why did I leave? People in our meeting were having a big quarrel over cookies and candy. You may think I'm kidding but it's true. Even funeral donations among our people here have become avenues for fraud.

It seems we've lost the ability for self government or self control. The overriding impetus seems to be taking without giving anything in return.



I doubt it's being done in a collective sense and that's just fine. Everyone take care of their own family and leave the rest to God...or USA/UK.

Thanks for your comment, especially about the Waterways Bill, I learned something.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Hope you are following what Obasa the Lagos Assembly speaker is trying to do in Lagos?

FairlyUSEDpussy:


Op..........do u stay in Lagos??
I'd advise u to save up and start Mobile clinic.........

U'd be making close to 90k to 100k on good day.........even on bad day sef u cud make 20k or more daily Oooo........

That's what have been doing since I finished my nysc..........

The mobile clinic is it mobile health clinic or mobile phone clinic?

samwash:


Oga I hate nonsense for life
How will you resume work 7:30AM & close 10PM for salary of 45K.
Nobody go advice you, better advice yourself.
Drop your certificate & storm the street. With your electrical/electronic knowledge, enter Lagos or Onisha go buy electrical parts like electrical extension, wires & the likes,for wholesales, find a busy place for street rent if you nor fit rent shop & start selling.
Prospect they that your field na.

This your vex sweet me, for reals. So cute!

Something tells me that even Buhari didn't actually win the 2015 election. Nigerians were deceived, but many kept quiet because Jonathan conceded.

Ripple effect of the “No man’s land crew”

I don change my signature. I don update am.

Well I just changed my signature to reflect something. Let them pass the law fast fast.

An Israel u20 v South Korea u20 Final would be a clash of tactics and technicals. They are the two best teams in this tournament. Nonetheless Italy has been very impressive too.

iwaeda:


GEJ will be laughing at gullible Nigerians, who couldn't reason at all. At N140, they all went to Ojota sponsored by same cabals in power now. But at N540, they are asking us to bear with them because they are in power. Nigeria will remain poverty base of the world, because inflation will reduce people's income beyond survival level. Welcome to Renewed Hope (lessness). Dont forget you cant demonstrate, unless you want to find yourself six feet below ground level

And you wanna know the best part? They will all soon forget all these hardship meted to them very soon by their own leaders, so that the cycle can repeat itself.

No independent company would brand NNPC . NNPC does do franchise . Are u guys fools or what on this platform

People are intense fools on this platform You are just knowing. I have known tey tey. Welcome to enlightenment.

internationalman:


I just imagine something.

Imagine after you recently married your wife and both of you were just chilling in the bed when you accidentally glanced through her phone on her hand while she was surfing Nairaland and you saw Soifra as the username at the top of the webpage.

As much as she's notoriously hated here as a feminist and a man hater, what would you do..

I think people like her are a completely different representation of something or someone different in real life than they are on social media..

She might be the coolest chick any guy would want to end up with in real life

Ah there are many women like that. Especially in black american women. People like Ciara and Beyonce are very good examples. They sing songs that tell black women to reject men or to act some kind of way in disrespect to men in their lives while having long-standing relationships with their own men, who may even act unloyal towards them sometimes.

Good news is that some of the black women are now waking up, probably because their men are now travelling out to look for wives. Recently, Ciara starting singing a song like that again and there was a strong backlash from the women.

Mekanus:
These people keep making laws that pussifies every nigga.

You get the point. Check am. Who dey fat pass, if not women? Some women who let themselves go after they married can now report a husband who complains.
This will even lead to divorces quicker.

First to comment. Finally! And it's for a post like this. I am now inspired to push for greater things going forward. So help me, God.

anthonyuncle:


hmm.

e dey good make person know wetin him wan enter before him put leg.

most guys are too proud to ask for the prices on the menu before ordering.

Me I dey ask o. Shame must no dey there. Na girl wey I wan dey with long term I dey take out. If she no be for me, she no be for me.

helinues:


Bro , there are some restaurants and bar that can send person back to village with their ridiculous amount..

Some years back, I went out with my friends, then we were later joined by some girls, after the clubbing which was in the morning, na so the girls said they are hungry, well they weren't for me so that was none of my business. They kept on mentioning a particular Chinese restaurant as if na their their cords was buried.

Checking the menu, ordinary indomie with eggs na N7500. 3 indomie plus 2 eggs. Even though I wasn't the one to pay, I just ordered for water only, the water self na around N1k, as for those girls, my friends just dey lament bitterly after they left, I just dey laugh dem.

I for say. If I hear say na u carry girls for one posh place. For where u see money? BMC dey pay?

anthonyuncle:
did they eat lion's meat?

what and what amounted to 400k?

them still dey argue 25k for one wrap of moi moi for another thread.

Which thread? Abeg share

Painwontbreakme:
Ike Ekweremadu getting all his holes bursted in the UK. That's what happens when you refuse to fixed your country anything you see for another man land take am. There is no way a US or UK senator will be sentence if they broke the law like this in other countries. They will obviously be punished but going to jail no way.

You see ba, the Igbos that beat him in Germany have been vindicated. They really beat this man out of how they felt he wasn't doing anything to improve on people's lives back home but was there eating yam. He didn't listen.

Then, a video came out of a nurse that was showing the "clinic" in his constituency that was so terrible that instead of going there and collecting a new sickness, a sick person better stay at home. Yet he didn't listen again.

So this finally happened. I won't talk much but I believe that God intervened. People saying things in his support should take cognizance.


See ba, if Igbo people don't support any politician, there is a problem. And check it, the "presidents" Igbo voted against carry the highest calamities. I have been observing this fact.

HausaIgboYoruba:
but why only Southerners get jailed abroad?

Another one. Check my two posts above for your answer.

LionTiger:
Ask yourselve why there's on single Northernes among them.

I just answered it in my post above.

Yahami:
Considering the list no northern leader or politician in the list, we can conclusively said the north are more pure than the south Nairaland list(2023) as reviewed on 7th May, 2023

Lol, because the north no dey go that side na. Have you forgotten the northern woman that was arrested in (Saudi?) for drug trafficking that made Buhari to go for her case? Or, have you forgotten the men arrested in the UAE on charges of funding terrorism?

mbahfrankuc:
UK government should help in sentence all this criminals to death.
Imagine the amount of money meant in building our country,they are busy flying it to foreign land.
Oyibo way smart they will allow you to deposits the money still arrest you jail you.
Whereas some are dying in abject poverty .
Wetin we do una ?
My account balance nah 1k...

When it comes to financial fraud that benefits them, they don't usually do much. But funny enough, those financial fraud that these "politicians" do causes the crimes that gets to their shores which dey make dem dey wonder

arantess:
Abba Kyari should be extradited too

Why wasting time, we haven't forgotten oo

That one no fit try leave the country, lol.

Banhammy717:
Igbo

Only you na fool for this thread. All bigots dem dey respect their selves so far because Igbo don beat am for Germany, he still no hear.

Jagabanarmy:


I blame Buhari and Emefiele for that failed policy. Hypocrite everywhere, why blame only Emefiele. Buhari even disobeyed supreme court judgement.So both should be blame for the untold hardship Nigerians faced during that period

Exactly! I hardly see protest against anybody who's not an easterner, except only when zakzaky group and IPOB protested, that's what irks me.

And that's why things will always remain a lot worse.

Me too, I hated Emefiele so much that e be me like make I break him head.
Just that, hypocrisy too much.

Throwback:


How do you protest against someone that Igbo people told us had died in London?

Did you not see the condolence message from the Queen of England that Igbos were posting all over the Internet?

Then protest against whoever the presidency is.

Ihateheadslamer:
That is to tell you that Nigerians don't know the roots of their calamity

They know. They just like pretending. And they have made it a point of duty to always protest before anyone from the East. Case in point: Occupy Nigeria against Jonathan, who no even do half wetin Buhari do.

Shey power dey go south now?
Watch as the north will find their protest voices now.

Na mumu Easterner dey follow dey do protest for Nigeria instead of fighting to secede.

casualobserver:
Anyone who understands how big the anti-human trafficking campaign is the the Uk, knows there is no way the UK will be lenient. Their citizens will crucify them and call them hypocrites. If anything they are more likely to use all these appeals as free publicity to play to the gallery and show their citizens they are tough on trafficking.

They have made trafficking a big issue domestically and It is too big an issue for them to be lenient.

That’s the reality facing Ekweremadu!

Abike is just protecting herself from attacks from ibos.

From which people? The same Igbos that are happy he was arrested? Is it not the same Igbos that gave him a good beating in Germany that year?

If anything, Abike will draw the ire of Igbos if she succeeds.

Clearly, you guys don't , can't and will never understand igbos.
