let me drop my thought, obviously the delay might be caused by covid19 but definitely not just that.
do you guys know some of these packages are usually been held but Customs, DSS and NDLEA where they are probably been stolen and whisk away?
well, I paid almost 80,000 as customs fee to get few iphones a friend sent down from USA to his relative via fedex recently and that apart from the normal shipping fee which wass already paid to FEDEX from yankee oo, d money wasn't paid to individual but was paid to FEDEx account here in nigeria who later generated d customs receipt of payment for me and i had to call NDLEA and DSS to provide certain information before it was released,
all these are recent development and regulations to generation more money for the government and security checks, u guys are suppose to have a follow up call by this agency once the goods land in naija but trust my naija officers , na goat meat they do with some of this valuables.....I might be very wrong, i just spoke from experience

You are not wrong.
It doesn happen.
The problem is that sometime, people don't even know where their item is hanging
which is very bad.

If you asked this thieves what is the problem with Nigeria?
They will answer "corruption" and claim that Nigeria is not working due to "bad leaders".

I can't really fault NIPOST as my experiences with em has been generally ok. Never lost a single package, all my package that never arrived I got refunded. I've even received package 6 months after I have been refunded. Unfortunately, in most of these instances I can't reach seller as some have either closed or gone out of business. I never really understand why most AE sellers keep closing stores and I guess opening under a new name. AE must've made it very easy for this to happen.

The bold is the problem you are not seeing.
Sellers close their stores when they are continuosly defrauded.
From your perspective, you got refunded but the seller lost all his investment.

When NIPOST staff steal customers' item, they are destroying seller's business.
Eventually, many sellers will catch up to the scheme and stop shipping to Nigeria.

LegendHer0:
They are not only britons, they are Nigerians first.

Most of them migrated to the UK from Nigeria. MOST.

It doesn't matter where they migrated from.
Everyone came from somewhere.
They have made their choice.
They are britons.

Rubbish.
They are britons and should be left alone.
Stop celebrating other people's achievement.

Her friends needs to be questioned.
It is likely a secret boyfriend rendevouz gone wrong.

The headline is funny.

Daejoyoung:
So you can't differentiate mental disorderliness from red pill? Red pill makes you kill your wife? and not only that, your children and your mum? How old are you?

Another baby red piller.
Take more pills to see the light.

Muftimenk:
maYBE

Now, you have chickened out

brosom:

Tell me more.

Joshmanuel10:
Rubbish sharp maouth how it take affect the children he kill... U are a wicked person

Openbusiness:
100% BS! Alpha males don't kill their young. Alpha males protect their young with their very lives, they are ready to die to protect their children.

LINTUNE:
guy u are really stupid for making this comment, im a redpiller and i find it appalling that u would justify this sick man's act cos our how sharp mouthed the women folks are..there is no excuse for violence of any kind nr it male or female...stop giving the redpill a bad name ..

Mrcool4real:
See this big Mumu

Oizee:
even his own mother?

Ernchibyke:
Are you alright?

Daejoyoung:
This is simply a mental disorder, nothing like alpha male here.

Omoslim26:
Are you sure you are fine

TinubuGoQuench:
I wonder how your brain works!
See human being level of reasoning

Golan007:
And the children nko?

Sharp mouth abi?

These ones have fallen for women's emotional manipulations.
SIMPS everywhere!!!

sirjamesjnr:
. Build cutting edge research and technology, stop looting, is that too difficult for you to understand.

The problem is that you don't know what you are talking about.
Hence the use of generics.

An average Nigerian will of course 100% agree with you even though they have no idea
what the soundbite really means though they are convinced they do.

Just look at this statement:
"Build cutting edge research"

You can't actually build a cutting edge research.
It is not a car or house that you just assemble as you wish.

"Stop looting" is another platitude that sounds great.
But when you think about it, you will realise it is totally vacuous.
What constitutes looting?
Who exactly should stop looting what?

What you and others are doing is prescribing solutions to an undefined problem.
It is pointless!

This is an illegal and unconstitutional law.
No governor has unilateral power to detain or release suspects.
Are there no human rights lawyer to challenge this illegal law?

sirjamesjnr:
. If we develop science, technology, stop looting and close our border what will be the outcome?

I don't know as your statement is too generic to warrant a proper analysis.

Even the "stop looting" that seems to resonate with most Nigerians has no
clear meaning. What is looting and what is to stop looting?
If we assume you mean that elected politicians should stop converting public
money to private use, then you have only freed up money which can be used
to subsidize the public, pay higher wages or even create vanity projects.

nzeobi:
Many call ize iyamu a grass root politician forgetting his performance was because he was in a popular party like pdp and pdp structures worked for him.
Some politicians who eyeing the governorship seat in 4 years will rather allow obaseki complete his four years than vote a new person as witnessed in kogi and anambra.

He is definitely a grassroot politician.
However, all politicians have their own limits.

sirjamesjnr:
. My write up stated where we failed. Please read it again.

I read it.
You tried to explain why the Chinese prospered but has nothing
to do with "where we failed".
Chinese and Nigerians are very different people with different beliefs.

That some things work for China doesn't necessarily mean it will work for
any other country. My point is that Nigeria's issues are unique.

Even comparing companies have often being shown to be pointless as
the "success factor" of one company is merely surface knowledge.

You mentioned some of the reasons why China rose but you didn't address the
main reasons Nigeria remains relatively stagnant.

The two biggest ones are the entrenched socialist mindset and overbloated public service(including politicians).

Socialist mindset supports corruption, election rigging and ethnic conflicts.

Before you judge this alpha male, remeber that there are 3 sides to a story.

Women should watch their mouth.
They should stop bringing out the beast in beastly men.
Some women with their sharp mouth can wake the dead.

I don't see any where in the post where the fraudulent governor protested.
I hope this is not an imaginary story by TP.

These are the boys taking advantage of randy men an giving bad names to internet prostitutes.

delishpot:
People like you are the reasons why pedophiles go unpolished and unchecked.

Yes, I don't want to polish pedophiles, they are scum and deserve worse.

You dismiss cases as soon as you hear them simply because it makes no sense to you.

I don't dismiss cases, I doubt any based on oral accusations alone as any impartial observer will do
especially when someone has an axe to grind.

We await the police investigations on this issue.

BTW, there is a term for when you want instant punishment based on mere allegation, it is called jungle justice
and no civilized society condones it.

donbachi:
Any small thing "domestic abuse"..just to destroy the man's name..guys,make una begin to put hidden cameras inside ur homes,to capture some of their madness.so u can put it/them up as evidence(s).for the word to see,u have always been the abused.

Who are the you?

There is a reason why every single society criminalizes punching someone in the face
while "you are stupid" is just a civil issue.

FFK's recent outburst against a journalist is an example. If he had punched and roughandled
his target. He would have been detained and charged.

In case you are still confused.
Verbal altercations is never equal to physical assault no matter how "provoked" you are.

Abusers do not leave a relationship because they have the upper hand.
They don't need to be begged to stay because of reasons...

BTW, my post has nothing to do with FFK's issue as he could have been the
victim in this case. But "madness" or whatever that isn't physical can never
be equated with actual assault.

joseph1832:
Ah ah. If he's eligible for bail why not grant him bail? Bros your sentiment no be here oh. Lol.

I'm still trying to understand which law he broke actually for him to be arrested and detained in the first place. Though I'm not a fan of his overtly display of sex albeit without a care.

Would you say the same thing if someone came to shoot porn in your father's or church's compound?

NobleAngell:
Pls how true is this?I heard it from a not-so-reliable source but I said it's not true. Besides, during the debate he introduced himself as Pastor Osagie bla bla.

It is a lie.
He was given a chieftaincy title by a muslim king.
Some people think he should have rejected it.
That is genesis of the rumour.

Farki:
See that's the problem with Nigerian military personnel, maybe this kind of job attracts narcissists and sadists. It's not like they are the only bloody soldiers in the world but they act as if they are God.

You got it.
It is not as if there are no military in other countries.
Soldiers in sane country follow civilian rules while outside baracks
unless they are on a specific mission.
But here, they think they are god that must be worshipped.

Muftimenk:
yinmu

Do you want to kill random cops?

jpworld:
Lagos should just scrab the nonsense brt lane, more cars are in Lagos, why create a special lane for a bus less than 1% of total cars in Lagos.

Because the road are not private and the cars are causing gridlock
and economic losses.
With a proper tax regime, many car owners will start using public transport.

adioolayi:
Read the allegations...this time slowly. Ensure you read the entire report till the end. You will understand

He read it.
He is angry that a "millitary" man was challenged.
