Professional bodies too were subsidised?

My God, I know the govt is corrupt but if they did subsidised this much, them the govt would bleed.
The president should cut off all form of subsidies apart from education and start investing on new ideas.

The little money remaining for the govt to invest with, what did they do with it?
Without proper accountability, all these additional funds available for the govt will still end up being wasted or embezzled.

And how does one let it bother him ?

If you search deeply, the influence a naked woman will have on your mind is mostly powered by social values, more than your biological instincts. You've been programmed by society standards to think of sex when you see a naked woman.
Else in those cultures where their women walk around naked or topless, all their men would be walking around with erections!

When you renew your mind genuinely, as the Bible says, you will be free from that lustful influence.

Scapegoat.
This should make others think well before pranking people.

Pranksters need to all get training on ethics.
They mostly go too far. Imagine creating a life-threatening situation for someone who may be suffering from high BP or physical disability or psychological disorder. You later say it's a prank, but it might not end there for someone who has a medical condition.

Nothing special about a naked woman until you let it bother you.

By the time FG reintroduces Tuition fees, some Federal universities will cost over N2m yearly.

Madness

I seriously believe that is not an ordered list, and it's based on some "popular opinion".
By international rankings you must mention University of Ibadan, University of Lagos and Covenant University in the top 5.

My wife wants to switch from accounting to tech..

Which area in tech would be much easier for her to switch to based on her accounting background though she never worked as an accountant.

She uses excel well.

It's easy. Data analytics is the best route.
From accounting I self-learned HTML, PHP, JavaScript/Node.js, Python, C#, ... the list is long. I have a colleague who is a Java and C# guru, same accounting background. Mind you those were the days you have to read books and documentations and no video tutorials. We learned the hard way.

From my experience, the best route for a newbie is Data Analytics and Visualization, which can all be done in Excel, no single coding! Power BI is also an important tool to learn (easier than Tableau).
If she wants a tougher challenge, Python and/or R for Data Analysis.
If she is artistic and loves design, front end development (JavaScript) or Adobe suite for graphic design.

well, Apple is a $3 trillion company so if there’s any community that I want to be a part of it’ll be on the winning team oh and by the way I take a Benz over BMW anyway

Would have made sense if you had shares in Apple inc. and by marketing their brand with your money you actually stand to gain something. The same Apple pay some people to use their devices, and those people don't even make any effort to defend the brand.
What gives a brand power is not the company but the loyal customers. The company's work is to keep the customers hypnotized into believing using the brand makes them people of status.

CartelKenneth:
If it’s not the best, then how come, it’s a status symbol💁

Read about market psychology.
Every mature industry has brand leadership. No. 1 brand makes great products, but usually not significantly better than No. 2 or 3. In most cases No. 2 beats No. 1 in a number of good ways. Choosing between brand 1, 2 (and often 3) is always a matter of personal preference, not because of which is best.
E g. Many people will pick a Mercedes over a BMW of same model range. But BMW performs better, esp. in unpredictable situations.

Whatever rocks your boat! But don't kill your pockets because you want to "feel among".
Africans are too vain.

CartelKenneth:
Because it's the best

No. To you it's the best.
To other people, Android might be the best.
I prefer android. iPhones are for people who love to play with toys.

99% of you guys buying iPhones in Nigeria do so as status symbol not because it's the best phone to buy.

There is no tuition fees in those bills.
By the time the new policy if fully implemented, students will be paying 7 digits.

Why buy an iphone?

Those guys never stop calling! No matter how much you shout wrong number or swear for them, they wil keep calling.
Frequency will reduce over a few weeks and later you will just see random flashes.

This is just an android device with text-to-speech capabilities. Still a robot though, but doesn't have any AI model onboard.

The questions you guys should be asking is why the sudden drop?
What exactly caused the fall in prices?
Would it rise again very soon?
Is it a cunning ploy to distract people from the PMS subsidy removal?
Diesel just gained on VAT. Prices of food will go up too. All your foods and consumables are hauled with diesel trucks.

They know Nigerians are gullible. It's all a game plan from the Mastermind. The gas prices will start jumping up gradually and steadily after some months. Come back this time next year and let's talk about gas prices again!

A sermon is supposed to be spiritually inspired, not just making inferences from scriptural verses.
Although NLP can achieve 99% accuracy the real danger in this case is when you employ deep neural networks.
It takes the Spirit of God to know the mind of God.

Stories.

A smelling kpekus is like mouth odour; no matter how you wash it, that smell would return.

It's natural with some ladies.

Believe it or not, sometimes it is erotic. I get turned on sometimes too when I am confronted with some mild odour from the kpekus.

I had MANY ladies before I left that stupid lifestyle and only 2 smelled. I don't know your social circle but how do you meet those girls?

The natural scent of a vagina is a faint onion smell. And it's not bold until it mixes with semen. But semen in itself smells stronger than a normal vagina after a few minutes.

Guy. Please you need to research more, you sound a bit uninformed.
As for sleeping with multiple girls, it's all vanity at the end of the day. There's no real benefit of meaningless sex, apart from being able to brag about it to your friends and followers online. Put your energy on fruitful endeavours.

Don't be too quick to judge such ladies.
As much as hygiene matters a lot, other factors are equally important:
* Diet
* Antibiotics
* Stress
* Dehydration
* Deficiency of certain nutrients
* Hormonal imbalance
* Over-hygiene - yes. Douching with water/antiseptic or other cleaning with certain products.

You guys should read up and make research. Don't just come online to start making noise.

But it's not as common as OP is saying. He just seems to have the luck.

With infections, you get colors from white to brown. Not all infections produce a smell or colored juice. Absence of these doesn't mean there's no STI.

NBA is partisan.

Their statement on Tinubu admnistration should be thrown into the trash can.

Your brain should be thrown into the trash can.
A president came out to threaten court orders based on his own opinion of "what is democratic or not". And you're trashing those opposing that.
You should go and study Government to understand what's going on here.

Racoon:
All these shenanigans simply confirms two things. Buhari’s APC committed a lots of economic and terrorism damage to this nation by promoting irresponsible government in allowing the atrocious and treasonable acts of Godwin Emefiele to go unchecked because top ranking members of the govt including Buhari himself, Mamman Daura and other members of the cabals immensely benefitted.

Imagine a government retaining someone a top security organisation like the DSS deemed a security risk and perhaps passed Intel about but the all was overlooked.

Including Pantami. Even Buhari himself made statements suggesting incompetence and security risks before he was elected. But Nigerians were too gullible to read between the lines. Buhari neither surprised nor disappointed one bit - everything he did was expected.
Anybody expecting corruption to decline in the next 4-8 years are deceiving themselves. Nigerians will fund this country and its corruption from their personal pockets in the coming years. That's where the economy is going.

This is what we need in Nigeria. Not police or FRSC or lastma pursuing you on the road and causing a lot more danger than the one they want to arrest you for. At the end you can call one DPO or Army Colonel or politian to bail you out, or just beg with money. Then we all drive like animals.
In places like UK, if you run a red, or use the bus lane. You will see your fine ticket at your doorstep the next morning - that money you're hurrying to go and make, you will pay it as fine. Refusing to pay would destroy your credit score or even land you in jail. Now why won't you obey the traffic rules?

We don't care again. You guys should just stick to your "competence" mantra, and stop patronising us.
We want to see your best and we don't want you to have any excuse should you fail.

So out of the over 360 members, this illiterate is the most suitable for the position of Vice Chairman, House Committee on CBN matters?

That is what happens when people vote for party.

Dear Penguin,

I didn't want to reply this post but my spirit keeps on pushing me back. I want you to bookmark this and come back to it in about a year or so may the universe grant us good life.

You see there is little or no difference in Tinubu and Buhari and you are already falling for the same set of propaganda they deployed in 2015.

Referring to Buhari's appointees as almost illeterates is unfortunate. Adamu Adamu might be a nonesense minister of Education, but he isn't an illeterates as he is a PHD Holder. So therefore Tinubu's appointees won't be different from that of Buhari.

I mean Buhari's appointees might be mostly of his ethnic block but they were Men and women of timber and calibre. They couldn't perform because their head which is the president do not seen to know what he is doing.

Claiming Tinubu has best hands is also a fallacy. Apart from Lagos, The other states in the SW his people were in charge are nonesense states. Osun state was the Poverty capital of the SW courtsey of Tinubu's right hand Man aregbesola.

Or is it Ekiti? That place is more or less a dead zone. Even Lagos under him became the second worst city to live in the world.

Let's not talk about Lagos itself because even if you put a 10year old as Govornor it can run with or without his input. It was made possible being former federal capital of Nigeria and not the magic of Tinubu

2. Claiming security will improve under Tinubu is a fallacy as there will be little or no difference in the current security architecture.

You referred to the security architecture established by Govornors of the SW which is Amotekun.

Let me bust your brain. It is only Lagos in the SW that doesn't have a single Amotekun force despite sanwo Olu attending their summits.

The creation of Amotekun has helped the SW a lot most especially Oyo state. Yet Tinubu's Lagos do not have one single Amotekun officer because of Tinubu's ambition and not wanting to offend the North.

You see he owes the North,He dare not do anything against them. He wants to be president just to answer the name. He won't do anything spectacular. We will only be taxed more.

No restructuring will happen under him. That I am sure about. Maybe some might happen if Akpabio becomes Senate president on Tuesday which I hope he does.

But if the North becomes Senate president,just forget the Tinubu presidency because they will have him by his scrotum.

The so-called subsidy removal is for government to have more money to embezzle and not for nothing else. It will only lead to more hardship for Nigerians and nothing more.

If I can remember the others you talked about I'll come edit this post

Thanks

This is the truth and nothing but the truth!

The same way they started in 2015 about Buhari's body language after he was sworn in. We all saw how it ended. My respect to those who didn't make it, hope they found eternal peace.
There's no much difference between Buhari and Tinubu. They're both ailing old men who just wanted to answer the name "Mr President".

But, this is the ideal skill for everyone to learn due to it's direct and indirect impact.

Well. If you say so.

Think of robots!

Imagine this.
Elon Musk created lots of robots to help humans in daily tasks and gave them rules to abide by.
A hacker came and injected virus into some robots.
Some of these AI robots evolved in their programs and began to disobey those rules and recreated their own rules. And they also began infecting other normal robots with the virus.
Angry Elon Musk decided to shut down and destroy as many corrupted robots as possible.

Then, you, one of the robots being timed in hope that your program corruption could be reversed, are accusing your creator of being genocidal.

Can clay say to its porter "what are you doing?"

God gives life. He can decide to take it anytime. He owns it!

Do you know your DNA is a set of programming instructions (code) packed in most of the cells of your body?
Have you ever seen programming codes anywhere without a programmer?

There's nothing in man's imagination that doesn't exist.

He will come surely come back.

Nonsense.
The only thing written here is the govt is PREPARED, govt WILL, govt PLANS.... These are things that should have been done and implemented first before removing subsidy.

And no inflation is temporary in Nigeria!
