... That waste disposal, that biz na money with low capital to set up but the returns is huge...

This is super storyyyyyy.

Huge indeed. As though you'll be charging hundreds of thousands from 100s of clients

Nigeria's laws and institutions are weak, and that's the real reason people don't trust insurance.

You can pay every kobo of your premium, and when you finally make a claim, the insurer can still find a way to wriggle out of it. Or they'll just tell you to "go to court," knowing full well they have the money and the connections to wear you down. At the end of the day, all those premiums are wasted.

Look at the guy who bought a Samsung phone and couldn't get the warranty honored. Then the usual questions come: "Are you ready to fight a big company?" or "Is the claim even worth it?"

That's the problem. Until there are laws that actually protect citizens from big corporations, Nigerians will keep avoiding anything that could land them in a fight with one. And that's why insurance gets so much apathy here.

Between the first half of 2025 and the first half of 2026, federal revenue rose by 72%, from ₦3.6 trillion to ₦6.2 trillion.

Bunch of liars.

Yet, you're collecting loan upandan like drunken master.

And haven't been able to succesfully finance capital budget for two years running.

Never-do-well clowns.

Government of tokenism.

What's lifetime pay?

What happened to statutory pension?

Can anyone confirm if University of Canterbury offers access to an immigration consultant.

There was ASUU strike in 2025.

Just warning strike aborted

JOHESU and ARD strike too

While Bola is busy hiding and not even confident enough to go on his own campaign.

The wicked runneth when Noone is chasing them.

Avoid Samsung at all cost. They produced the worst set of phone. Very costly phone but fragile screen . If you want to replace the screen you have to break the bank. Let's not even talk of their warranty. You'll suffer. Samsung is shit.

I purchased an LG fridge from Fouani last year for 740k, 13months later, the screen got bad and I took it back to them for repair, they said it will cost 730k.

I kid you not.

Thing is that Nigeria is a dysfunctional society with lame government institutions.

This nonsense Samsung did with OP, they can never try it in the west or even SA

Make no mistake. Umahi owns that company and is using the guy as a front.

Ain't no way a minister, not even the president can give contract worth over 60B to a loyalist, even if he expects kickbacks from it. Impossible.

Only explanation is that the minister owns the contract and uses the guy to front it.

The NSCDC said the facility was producing a drink branded “Barkas Juice” and alleged that the product contained water, sugar, colourants, dyes, additives and synthetic flavourings rather than real fruit.

Comedians.

Which beverage company uses actual "real fruits" for their drinks?

If so, most of the beverage companies in Nigeria, if not all should be shut down.

Another major milestone

Your mineral resources is about to be excavated ruthlessly and shipped abroad and what you summarized it as is "major milestone"?

What sort of collaboration can exist between a country that has minerals and another country that has the cash and influence if not that of exploitation.

Peter should stand by his words and opt out of the presidential race!

If Peter had any iota of shame, dignity, integrity and diligence, he should pull out of the race!

He has never been a man of his words and just reaffirmed it!

People have gone the extra mile to verify and you can’t just keep to your promise. Same promise you never could keep with APGA, PDP, LP and the likes?

It’s really a sad time in history! Now we have been who cannot stand by their words.

Wilful ignorance.

Taking/servicing a government loan is not necessarily the same thing as personally owing a creditor or leaving unpaid contractor/salary obligations.

This is part of why they ask your ilk to write IELTS despite studying in English

I always thought fatal accidents involving buses this size were pretty rare, given how big and sturdy they are except, of course, when the bus ends up plunging into a body of water.

Looking at the bus, there doesn’t even seem to be any major structural damage from the impact, apart from the shattered windows. So how did so many people end up dying?

The US itself is running out of stockpile after spending $22 BILLION.

Iran is showing them shege 🇮🇷🏆😂😂😂

Apparently, you're still pained by the sanctions placed on your hateful xenophobic country.

That said, death to all terrorists and their sympathizers. Gnashing of teeth will never leave their miserable lives.

Death to all terrorists and those who sympathize with them.

Evil shall follow them through the length and breadth of the earth.

The fact is that Nigerians cant act, even the so-called A-List actors.

Dialogue is next to zero and they mostly use nice cinematography to mask obvious production flaws.

Op until you hear the long list of payments you have to make in UNIBEN especially during MSc clearance.

You begin to wonder if you're being cleared to enter heaven.

There's even one they call 'endowment fee'.

Did you calculate the odd of Iran hitting United States in comparison to USA hitting Iran?
1/1,000,000,000,000

1. Iran was sanctioned for almost 4dcades, before you were born.

2. America has the most sophisticated military in the world,

3. America has one of the best intelligence agency in the world.

4. America Military spending surpasses Iran GDP for more than 10years

5. Iran economy is in shambles, America has a thriving economy.

Iran doesn't stand the chance in the logical sense, yet America couldn't withstand Iran bombardment. That's something to think about

Chief, I understand and completely concur. I know Iran is severely disadvantaged.

The USA was always going to suffer some casualties and destruction too; that's why it's a war. No one emerges from a war unscathed, especially when it's not a conflict between, say, Burundi and China.

My angst is directed at people who genuinely believe Iran is any match for the US.

The only reason Iran is still standing is because, in the American homeland, the war is hugely unpopular, and the US government has had to administer a war that even the international community viewed as intimidation and unnecessary aggression.

Believe me, if we had a hypothetical situation where Iran targeted and killed JD Vance or John Roberts in a gruesome manner and made a spectacle of it, that country would be brought down within weeks.

I'm using this extreme example to illustrate what a war would look like if there were no domestic or international pressure on the US to exercise restraint.

The only country in the world who I belive can really stand up to the US is China, not even the lousy Russians.

Integrity dey cry. It is well.

It's a shame that Nigerians can't stand honesty as it gives them nightmares and exposes their hidden inadequacies.

The more APC minions attack Obi, whom they claim came a "distant third" in the last election, the more I believe the narrative that Obi actually won that election.

How else do you explain APC constantly trying to undermine and sabotage a man who supposedly came third, while almost ignoring the one who came second? Shouldn't their fury and angst be directed at Atiku, who was the closest contestant, in second place? Why is there so much attention on Obi and not on Atiku, or even Kwankwaso and Kachikwu, who came fourth and fifth?

Oga OP, you really need to get a hold of yourself.

Did you really think USA will emerge from that war unscathed? Did US tell you they weren't going to suggest losses?

Even your almighty Russia have suffered losses against minnows Ukraine.

But know that if the USA went full muscle on Iran, the country will be turned to a desert in 2 weeks. You need to be superdeluded to think Iran can stand up to America

“The bigger issue with Tinubu is not his certificates, or lack of them. It is the fact that he is a KNOWN DRUG LORD who was involved in a heroin drug cartel in the US, and forfeited millions in drug funds to US authorities.”

“As any lawyer will tell you, a forfeiture is an admission of guilt!”

Drug lord is not an unprintable name. Bola Tinubu is a known drug lord. I've got documents to back it up. I spent my money, went to Chicago, went to court, and got certified true copies. Bola Tinubu is a drug lord.”

“Tinubu is a known drug lord who belongs in jail, not Aso Rock!”

“You see how Doyin Okupe paid a fine of ₦13 million to avoid going to prison after his conviction for money laundering? That is the same way that Bola Tinubu paid a fine of $460,000 to avoid going to prison after his conviction for money laundering for drug cartels.”

Guess who made the above statements and I will send you a copy of Obasanjos My Watch where he wrote and I quote , “I used to describe Bola as being completely fake in everything except in being a human being.”

Oh my Nigeria.

Indeed how the mighty have fallen.

Imagine your citizens being slaughtered like Salah ram, left, right and centre and all you do is useless mundane press release.

While there are major South African businesses operating in your own country. I'm not even asking for retaliatory killings, but sanctions exist for a reason.

Can South Africa allow killing of Egyptians or Moroccans and turn a blind eye? I highly doubt so.

I just feel really embarrassed by this.

I guess we have become desensitized by the terrorist killings here that we can now casually say 10s of Nigerians are killed and no on raises an eyebrow.

The useless government of Nigeria must stand up and be counted.

They are Americans. Yes they have Nigerian names, but they are IN FACT, Americans!

Even the article didn't call them Nigerians cos they are Americans. Imagine Mexicans blaming themselves cos one Felipe or Alejandro was caught committing a crime in America just cos of his name... Abeg o, if you carry American passport, commit crime in America, you are an American, face your warrant!

Interesting.

So why do y'all call Anthony Joshua and Israel Adesanya Nigerians?

Imagine awarding arguably Nigeria's single biggest infrastructural project without accoutability and due process.

The Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway is not objectionable because Nigeria does not need infrastructure; it is objectionable because the scale, priority and manner of its award raised serious questions. A project of this magnitude should have been subjected to the highest standards of transparency and competitive procurement, yet the government opted for a restrictive process due to vested interests.

Those concerns are even more in the light of Tinubu's longstanding relationship with Gilbert Chagoury, owner of Hitech. Isn't this the personification of conflict of interest? Yet, 30k boys don't see the irony.

Meanwhile, countless existing federal roads are collapsing, crippling commerce and endangering lives, look at Benin Ore road, look at the kogi road into Abuja. With limited resources, why prioritise an enormously expensive new coastal highway over repairing the infrastructure Nigerians already depend on?

Apparently, I missed the part where he committed a crime that warranted an "arrest".

So many non-state actors arrogating powers to themselves in Nigeria.

Shame

Unfortunately, Nigeria has a government that appears more committed to consolidating power than protecting lives.

Terrorists kill, kidnap and displace Nigerians with alarming impunity, while the government seems more concerned with suppressing bad news and controlling the narrative than confronting the crisis.

When a government prioritises its image and political survival over the lives of its citizens, it has failed at its most basic responsibility which is why I genuinely belive that the government of Mr Tinubu has gone past its sell-by date.

First, i know this is a white elephant project.

But then again, What is Maidugri known for again? What value will the train add to that destination?

Is there train service linking Lagos, Onitsha, PortHarcourt, Kano?

Let's see the picture of those rescued and there account. Cuz everything about this government is built and based on propaganda

My take too.

The names, let's compare against the manifest of the vehicle to be sure they are free.

And then testimony from them confirming ransom wasn't paid.

It will be foolhardy believing any statement from a Nigerian government agency without 3-factor authentication.
