Allahkaduna homeboys dishing out what they know best on nairaland

Person say she no do again, dem begin talk about body counts , like dem fit do without women for their lives , same NL boys wey dey advise married men to get side chicks ...

Well ,online dey different from reality, everybody holy for online ..

I no no say dick dey gum woman body .

You dey mind the swines!
Nairaland incepted in 2005, I knew about it 2006 and registeres then. This is not my first and only account NL. I've known KoboJunkie and many others I can't recall as huge and intelligent contributors to the revival of this forum, I inclusive. These kiddos were still writing jamb back then or about to face their WAEC. But these days social media has erode all sense of disparity making everyone equals.

Kk4:
Nigerian men no dey fail to dissappoint.
OP point out alot of red flags and most replies are focusing on the toothpaste and body count.
As a guy, if you are not organise and hygienic, you never ready date proper not to talk of marriage. Nne don't lower your standards because you want to be with a man.

The thread is littered with so much childish comments I almost wanted to exit till I saw yours. It indicate the low calibre of kids with no sense of decorum, hygiene and self-standard swarming Nairaland. Imagine one kiddo saying he doesn't know it's a wrong habit to squeeze paste from the middle. Tells a lot about today's generation. Hence I always say Africans just copied westernism in a warped form. They call me afinju whenni was a kid just so you know how intolerant of uncleanness I was to a chronic level, those who knows what afinju means would understand how afinju just can't stand the tiniest of dirt, not to take of filth. We don't get comfortable and can't proceed well with an activity unless we sweep that floor several times, clean that dirt of the table before I can touch the mouse. I remember when living in an area filled with red muddied sand that I always washed the white sole of my converse sneakers so much every time that folks I didn't know where noticing it and one day gave compliment that they have never seen me with a dirtied shoe, I naturally sweat a lot so I sometimes pull off as when the discomfort gets unbearable, one day a woman joked at me that I wouldn't have done that if my white boxer was dirty. Impying I was showing off. I gave her a cynical look that suggests she is not to be blamed na, she's so much used with males with dirty boxers.

The only moment I can be found smeared with dirts and dusts is when the hustle or grind demands it like an oil-rig worker getting his hands soiled just to earn that mullah.

Personally I will judge your hygieneness by my own standard. Privately, I can't tolerate ẹgbín and I don't need no Whiteman to tell me cleanliness is next to godliness.

Ps
All the guys needlessly attacking the females here are suffering from deep seated insecurity. Like WTF are you hypocrites concerning yourselves with their sexuality or matrimonial desire. Stay on the topic by sharing your view or JGTFO!

Eriokanmi:
They can only stop after we've successfully disintegrated. There would be no resources from the southern part of the country to waste anymore. On yoruba nation I stand gidigba. No matter how long it takes, it is inevitable.

As long as we still staying together as a nation, I rep Naija and crave her prosperity through good leadership.

What's pathetic is how despite southerners pride themselves for being so-educated in law and whatnot, yet they cannot see the treason in the governmental setup of the North overshadowed by Shariah Constitution enforced by Hisbah police in a so-called constitutional democracy!

How have they not splitted already? According to the report, they even exist a General Commander among their rank, maybe ScarletBrace and InvertedHammer can come help ♏🅰🎋📧 this makes sense if that is not what's called Parallel Govt ?

Jakumo:
It is fascinating to see how so many Nigerians who stumble into great wealth regard morbid clinical obesity as a desirable goal to be achieved by stuffing their faces with fatty foods and eschewing all forms of physical exercise. Perhaps even more entertaining is their desperate scramble to seek medical help when that hideous obesity takes its predictable and inevitable toll on their mortal existence.

In his heyday, Emperor Asari Dokubo proudly displayed his 200-liter beer gut, but now that deformity has proved too heavy for his legs to support, and he is confined to a wheelchair in preparation for the final excruciatingly painful chapter of his greedy life.

Perfectly captured.

the brain behind crypto is smarter than you and Nigerian government,so u no fit stop m oga.

I'm not concerned about all this nig govt vs crypto wahala. My question is - is cryptography the only way to manufacture digital currency?

Babalegba:
The US dollar,naira and other fiat currencies do have tangible intrinsic items of value behind them. The nigerian government for example could print one billion naira knowing fully well that it has oil ,
other tangible products and services to back up the paper money
When a country does not have the resources to back up the paper money,then there is a problem like we currently have in Zimbabwe.
You then have a scenario where a bar of soap could cost one trillion.
I do support the federal government on this matter as I don't want the Nigerian economy to be destroyed because of a fad.
Money should be based on concrete things like the gold standard.

What is the British Pound Sterling backed with?

Threads like this is an anathema to the likes of Eunoiaa, the Greek wannabe who's so swallowed up in her la-la-land fantasy world simulated on Nairaland. They definitely avoid comenting on a thread like this.

Which is better?
To marry 2 wives or to marry one wife and have many girlfriends?

You dey mind them hypocrites. They know polygamy makes a man out of been a man as one is saddled with true responsibilities which can be avoided in the same Monogamy that afforda the liberty to indulge in wanton adultery while still keeping up fake appearances. I made solid points here

Go back and read what I wrote and this time carefully.
I said Legit hustles won't say they will pay with crypto ONLY...there will be options

I sill stand by this assertion, FYI I be early crypto adopter and enthusiast.....e no get wetin your likes wan tell me about crypto

I think there's a mistake in who you're addresses this response to. Carefully reading your posts, I think we are on the same page regarding crypto sort of. I never quoted you nor did any of my reply intend to have you convinced to leave crypto regardless you been an early adopted or not. Go back and read my post where I mentioned countries that had no issue with their citizen using it, or you didn't see that?

huptin:
Most of the Fintech funds ends in commercial banks, most of the investors in FINNTECHS are commercial bank's owners, in fact most commercial banks have their tech subsidiaries....Wema - ALAT, UBA - Heirs tech, Access - Oxygen. etc.

So there is no war...commercial banks are not threatened.

Access fintech is Hydrogen and not Oxygen

Jagabanbattle:
You said legit hustle can’t pay with crypto? That is absurd. Even Hostinger receive payment for Domain registration, hosting services and other services they render in Cryptocurrency. And many more companies do this.

Just ignore folks that reason that way as I did. Personally I dislike Crypto from the very beginning. But I'm a big supporter of innovative tech. Nigeria reason to ban cryptocurrwnct is baseless and anti- progress. Before crypto came, weren't there terrorism (Mutalab), laundry and corruption (Haliburton, Panama Papers exposing many Nigeria corruptionists). Sometimes back, I was due to pay for the renewal of my domain name and so NameCheap suggested I used crypto since I was having issues with the usual VISA/Mastercard channel, I had no idea memo wasn't supposed to bear 'crypto' in its message. The transaction got flagged, never funded as Naira4Dollar and my bank played ping-pong with me for months for this same damn reason. So when I say Nigeria is not a country nor a nation. I know what I'm saying. Democracy, Federalism and terms like that only exist on paper. Nations that ban crypto have genuine reasons for doing so, not because of laudry and FX currency. The president of Ecuador now is the first country in the world to openly legalize BTC as their legal tender. There are several countries in Europe that allows its citizens to trade in crypto.

Konquest:
I watched the long but engaging video of the Benin Royal Palace high chiefs to the Royal Palace of the Ooni of Ife (Uhe) yesterday and there was absolutely NOTHING wrong with what the high chiefs said or did. They even affirmed the authority of the Oba of Benin while affirming the ancestral relationship between the Royal Palace of Benin and the Royal Palace of Ife through Oranmiyan who was the first Oba of Benin and the father of Oba Owomika (Oba Eweka) in that video.

So, the BTC should calm down, watch the full video and not escalate things any further.

The Ooni of Ife (Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi) will definitely step in by speaking on the phone or physically to the Oba of Benin over this and there will be a thawing of the situation, leading to the restoration of the full rights of the high chiefs by BTC.

Well said bro.
Besides, the throne of Ooni of Ife as crowned title is but a spiritual leader of all Yoruba kingdoms (sub-ethnic groups) not the paramount leader as many thinks. Paramount leaders doesn't exist. All Yoruba kings are Omo Alades! It is all the internet yoots on Twitter that gave this schism the needless fuel to burn for months, where is @macof when one needs him. He is vast in this histories.

DeLaRue:
The Yoruba Internet warriors are a big part of the problem.

There is nothing wrong if Oba of Benin traces his lineage back to Ife. Both the Oba and the Ooni are comfortable with the true story.

But this new Internet generation have turned the whole thing into 'Yoruba owns Edo', 'Edo is Yoruboid' etc None of these is correct.

Edos are a proud people, with a distinct culture and civilisation. They're not Yoruboid and don't want to hear that nonsense.

I don't see why the Oba having Yoruba lineage should be a problem. If anything, it is something to be celebrated and honoured by him and the Ooni and used to bring their 2 people together.

The Oba of Benin is probably concerned that his people will hold his self-confessed Yoruba lineage against him. That is understandable in the context of petty political and civic rivalries that Africans in particular excel at.

People, particularly some of these Yoruba internet youths should butt out of this matter and let Edo people be.

What they heck is Yoruboid?
Arent they things the Binis and Yorubas share in common, they both use the same divination system of Ifa (Orunmilla) and revere Ogun, so why these needless schism! If British made expired Nigeria disintegrate tomorrow and they want to detach themselves as a nation. They should but all these falsehood peddled around is all because of the nonsense money driven politicking desired in corrupt Nigeria.

MrProlific95:
Tribalism is corruption.
Hausa, Yoruba, Igbos are guilty of this

If all these lumped together group govern their own respective nations, instead of competing to rule an heterogeneous sinkhole vomit from the British anus, would this erroneous word you ignorants call 'tribalism' exist? The Spaniards are one ethnolingual homogenous people running their affair in their Iberian ancestral land, were all their sub-ethnic groups speak their own dialect and running their sh!t, but in Zoogeria you all shout tribalism yet you can allow another man from your tribe to come govern your people because he is Kanuri and you're Ijaw, then what the Fvck sh!t do you all refer it as a country much more a nation.

Just watched this doozy supernatural. It's quite the thrilling enough to fill the spine with some good chill.

Where in the video did she admit that she cheated? These DNA tests can be wrong. They make use of polymerase kit. It's same kind of kid with covid 19 virus. Wrong results are very common especially when done here in Nigeria with low quality lab.

In Nigeria, very possible, but regardless it can be done up to three times at three different med labs just to be absolutely sure. Unless you want to say DNA itself is lying when there's a mismatch.

Indept study shows that once African techies gets funded, the motivation dies down! Because as part of far reaching agreements for the funds, they knew they are no longer the owners of the idea & business, but mere figure heads kept fat for the kill. This is why lousy mouth board members could vote to fire Open Ai CEO.

A chap fronting for a Tiger Group in China proposed buying my company for $80k USD cash, then retaining me for two years as MD/CEO and co-founder to move the company to projected heights and i wont have to set up another LLC similar to my initiative for the period. Now, $80k USD is mouth watering for a young African in his late thirties, but i said No! $500K, 50% equity or nothing. Ndi ara. Do i look like the Open AI guy that got fired by a members who sat all day long sipping coffee without smelling the street?

This is why i have not raised funds from Western Capitalist fronts. They have no idea how the African; Nigerian markets works. More funds is no guarantee of a successful Venture! They fund you, then they dictate how you should run your idea. Africa is not the West where Institutions work and Institutionalized corruptions & bureaucracy is negligible!

This is one reason why Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing via Innoson Group Inc has been around while more funded businesses like **** have faltered! Companies like IVM & Bigkoko will continue to be around because, they organically grow through hard work, not through easy funding.

With the Igbo Apprentice System properly incorporated into ways of running a businesses, it will be difficult to shut down. Ask people wey sabi run Companies! No go fund swegbessss!

I've been following this thread closely for quite a long time and in as much as I'm in absolute agreement with you on certain points such as
1. adapting elements of business formulars native to Africa local realities to tech startups instead of Western frameworks, ie go local, provide local solutions for local problems leveraging available techs. I dig. Exactly way I think too.

2. Startups always hunting for foreign funds to scale and whatever is tantamount to death of passion, enthusiasm and zeal to actualize vision, it only enable laxity, redundancy and ostentatious indiscipline. Absolutely concur.

However, your thread clearly stated "List of Fintechs that bite the dust" but you've posted Agro-techs, food-tech, logistic techs etc where it is not hard for anyone to discern it but a disco-room of your making just to gloat over any business startup that has faced the guillotine. Dont get me wrong as it has also been a thing of concern and worry to me for years as to why Nigeria and west Africa has become a graveyard for the emergence and sudden capitulations of so many tech startups, particularly Fintechs, untill I learned lots of shady stuffs were behind the reason of their kick starting, but still a lot would be displeased with your gleeful remarks on how you promote yours at the pleasure of theirs sinking before taking flight.

Meta just lost $200B in stock and values, the Facebook parebt company are hitting harsh times. Apple is a bit not left out. The most recent of the Fintechs is ThePeer as reported by TechCabal in the link below

https://techcabal.com/2024/04/23/investors-request-audit-the-peer/

It's not about tribalism or always mismanagement, it could be one of a several factors.

Those factors are what should be discussed in great length in thread like this. Not to gloat over defunct tech or ones currently facing the noose. Most of the founders/co-founders tend to siphone investors money. But why do these VC and AI continue to pour their cash on startups offering the same old recycled paytech solutions with no USP, true novelty, innovations or business logic?

Namaster:
Your understanding of macroeconomics is LIMITED. And your proposed solution is LAUGHABLE.

You want to convert people's Dollars to Naira by FORCE. And you think people will use the platform?

Funny!

The description makes it sound like another fintech idea that solves ZERO problem. It'll NOT stop Nigeria from bleeding money from the excessive need for importation.

Nigeria's problem is a balance of trade that is skewed HEAVILY on the side of importation. We need to shift it back to equilibrium at least.

That can only be done by making exportation easier. Increasing the quality of our local products so that the can REPLACE import and possibly become viable for export is also a thing.

Cutting the cost of governance will ALSO help.

Majority of the construction projects in Nigeria are handled by Julius Berger and CCEECC. Both of which will eventually REMIT their profits to their home country. To do that they'll need to convert whatever Nigeria pays them to dollars.

That puts more pressure on the Naira.

Getting Nigerian contractors to handle our construction projects will go a long way in relieving the pressure on Naira.

Plus, Nigerian contractors may do it cheaper and lessen the inflation rate. That's also a positive for our exchange rate.

Another thing is that Nigeria needs to convince more companies to set up more factories in Nigeria.

To do that, Nigeria needs to fix its power issues and its insecurity issues. But that's a LOT of work. And that's why they adopt PHONY solutions like the one you suggest.

Absolutely right.
So on point!

Honestey:
The madafaka true intention is to damage the struggle for Yoruba nation by making it look like a senseless and chaotic struggle for Biafra led by the inmate Kanu and fugitive Ekpa. The struggle for Yoruba nation is still in full effect but people like her are liability to the struggles. Therefore, I'm in full support of that demolition and if she didn't stop her treachery charge were for treason and keep her in the same cell with Kanu maybe they can born Tewonde together.

maxdosh:
But somehow some of these movies with these attributes you have mentioned, become nationwide successes, they are probably doing something right I guess

That 'somehow' is best spelled out as 'settling for mediocrity' and recycled garbage. Do Nigerians to you appear like people who demand for high caliber, high octane, very original entertainment, fiction or not ? The majority here are cool with a hit-and-run accident scene in a movie that's so whacky that not even an extremely low budget film-house with amateur producers/director newly out of film school can settle for. And you expect Nigerian film-makers who are obviously driven by the fame and money to improve, why would you if the majority don't complain about the trash been churned out on weekly basis.

I'm glad you stated 'nationwide success' and even at that, not exactly nationwide does these films make whatever it is you mean by success as folks still consume more foreign films than the lackluster ones here.

LegendHero:
Amotekun don talk.

They should round them up and take them to the shrine for cleansing. It’s evident shishe shishe and eedi ati asasi dey follow them.

Even if we want a Yoruba nation, is it by invading the Oyo government house and declaring sovereignty just like? So what happens in Ogun, Osun, Lagos, Ekiti, and Ondo? Will they have Nigerian governors while only Oyo have Yoruba nation governor? What about the military? Is it going to be Oyo soldiers vs Nigerian Yoruba soldiers?

These guys should be flogged mercilessly at the Oja Oba market for this shame they brought to the Yoruba people.

Seconded.

Precisely as I stated here and here

Liberation struggle is not an organizational thing that demands membership, much more a circus freakshow centered around a banshee suffering from grandiosity and Messiah complex who hijacked and turned something fundamental to a personal fantasy chase, further jeopardizing the efforts of those going about it through legitimate procedure.

pls what is cobra effect??

Cobras bites people in a kingdom.

Nobody is bold enough to kill cobras.

King can't risk/afford historians remembering his reign as a bad one where combras bites people for fun.

King offers rewards as incentives to any for every cobra killed.

Brave individuals start earning cool rewards per dead cobras till they are no more cobras in kingdom.

But soon cobras start to emerge again because some figured earlier that if there were no more cobras, then no more rewards, so they begun rearing and breeding cobras just so the reward keep getting claimed.

Point is -
A solution preferred in trying to solve a problem, eventually just made it worse. It happened with the bio/computer Virus and Anti-virus industrio-complex.. also industrio-military complex.

I am the Manager of a Hotel. There is this waitress that is also working at the hotel, very respectful and loyal. All the workers in the hotel respect me to the bone.

Until the same waitress keep hailing me when ever she come to my office she will say may may u are a very handsome guy o. During my off day I called her to a bar in my area cause that was her off day too. I bought her barbeque and holandia yourgut. We lodge an hotel room and she satisfy me well.

The next morning I told her we won't do this again that is wrong because am a married man she said no problem, since then this girl has been disrespecting me, she embarrass me in front of the supervisors. My supervisor got angry and told me to sack her or report her to the owner of the hotel. I told them I will handle the issue.

Pls advise me what to do pls.

The indignity you're suffering is the price to pay for breaking the law of a system same men standardized on social existence. Blame men for this, they planted into women's mentality the seeds that germinate into their understanding to enact a delusion of boldness that erases boundary that demarcate roles, status and postitions right after an consented but illegal sexual activity has been executed. Men are to be blame for all the woes and ills of any given society. Not women. I know what I'm saying. Youre married, your staff tempted you with carrot, bugs bunny fell for it and drew line back, Betty Boop couldn't handle that. More romps, more favors and preferentials was her end game.

Now imagine you were married to like 9 wives with utmost sexual, marital, economical and attentive responsibilities dangling round your busy neck tasking your arse on fire, no jezebel-yanshed Stefflon Don or Beyonce-looking biiiach would dare appeal or attract you.

So go deal with it.

Happy monogamy life.

Ps.
Lady staff, whoever and wherever you are... Don't cut this man any slack. They are the ones, including all the rich married men, destroying the fabrics of Western society with their hypocrites life.

Honestey:
Agitation for Oodua secession is still very much alive but it can't be led by that olosho woman. Who the hell is she? Yorubas don't follow woman. The secession will be achieved in peace when hausas too finally see the reason why they need to stand alone as did Yorubas and igbos.

That delusional gloat has always been doped up on high horse to have personalized the Yoruba Nation cause into a Messianic adventure where she claimed to be the recipient of directive from a divine source. Even the blinded and the mute would not follow such figure or any one claiming to spearheader a liberation struggle. Liberation struggles comes naturally when the suffer-headed masses are truly ready, only then does a govt (be it capable or inept) takes shi!t serious. Even if those bunch of clowns were remotely succesful, I would not support them because that's not the way of actualizing such. Only the discerning can tell they were all put up to it, seeing it as a preemptive move to strike out any tendency for any group to pursue UNDRIP under Chapter 1, Article 1, part 2 which Nigeria is signatory to, amidst the increasing suffering, poverty and hardship. UNDRIP stands for United Nation Declaration Rights of Indigenous People overseen by the UN Charter and resolutions.

If this was her doing and hers alone, let her be fished out and locked up, but if she's a mole uses to achieve this to malign UNDRIP in people, then such pervase incentive may lead to what is called The Cobra Effect.

Nigeria is a cruise nation as Reno Omokri recently X'ed.
