Good one. A big congratulations. We need to reverse the brain drain and save our country from the decline.

I agree.

But in all sincerity how many staff do you think will be enough for the SON to enforce and ensure the right standards.
Are you telling me the S.O.N needs to visit every single factory, back yard stores and shops, where different products are manufactured so as to enforce the right standards?
This is not even possible in the advanced climes.

For me the problem is not with the SON but with the mindset of an average Nigerian?
A mindset to get rich quick.
A mindset to swindle any one given the next possible opportunity.
A mindset to get the maximum profit possibke from any and every business deal.

Do you really need an organization to watch over your activities before you do the right thing?
A product costs N1000, a customer pays N1,000 yet you produced and sold a sub substandard product not even worth N50 to him?
Isn't that greed?
Isn't that wickedness?
Isn't that despicable?
Isn't that madness?
Isn't that person cursed by his action already?

Do really really need anyone to tell you what you have done is wickedness?


My people will say, na thief dey always complain say where the owner put his/her property is wrong.
Abeg if you no be thief, why take what doesn't belong to you.


Abeg a lot of Nigerians are cursed by their mindset and acts.
They are just beyond redemption.


Tueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh and spit on the faces of every fraudulent Nigerian.
Their evil will soon catch up with them.

I agree they may not have the capacity to reach every nook and cranny of the country. But stiff penalty for proven cases, liaison with police and the general public can go a long way to stamping out this madness. Let me give u an instance. Say, there's a bounty of 1m naira for whistle-blowers. Say, there is a taskforce on Countrywide counterfeiting. I think we can get there. This is less impactful than the peddlers of death selling fake drugs. I spit.

Standard Organization of Nigeria (SON) is a huge joke. So also the Consumer Protection Agency (CPA)

That's not newsworthy. Nothing out of the way here.

While your child is growing up, make sure you observe how they behave when corrected for bad behavior - then cure that with counsel where possible.


I don't even know to wrap my head around the thought of a 9 year old premeditating multiple homicide 😬

He didnt think of the outcome. Just venting his anger. I believe he is not only horrified now but also mortified by the outcome of his misdeed.

Kalulu44:
It's been a while we heard about Gov Sim Fubara in the news. Unlike some months ago when he was battling with his godfather Wike.
Since the agreement of no more impeaching him and no 2nd term for him, man has been as cold as ice.
It seems the man has accepted his fate and recoil to himself.
.
But I am having a feeling Gov Sim Fubara didn't kept quiet on purpose just for peace to reign in Rivers State. I'm having a feeling he's cooking up something against Wike and to a larger extent Tinubu before and during the 2027 election. Honestly speaking this is just my opinion and feelings.
But on the contrary, in reality. If I am in his shoes. I won't let them turn me into a coward they have already turned me to without fighting back.

There's nothing to lose again. It's already known I won't be seeking re-election. Nothing is gonna erase my name as the former governor of Rivers State. So striking back at my traducers will be sweet bowing out.
My plans: some days to the general election I will change every head of government parastatals loyal to Wike and Tinubu including the state inec presiding officer.
And replace them with loyal people that we have planned together months on what role to play during the election.
.
I won't care if President Tinubu later wins the general election, but I make sure the opposition wins Rivers State with clear margins and deflate the overblown ego of Wike. After all, it's not compulsory I must hand over to the next person.
Days before the handover, after the damage has been done. I will be in one foreign country like Obiano chilling while my deputy do the handover.
Hehehehehe, wishful thinking I guess. But I honestly do wish Fubara will hurt Wike somehow for how he suffocated him thru out his 4yrs tenure.

Good on script. Fubara has no balls, however. That is clearly evident. He is planning nothing. Zombie square 10,

Sonnobax15:

Reduce the target to 30k per week . How many people can comfortably save up 30k in a week ? Especially now that expenses exceeds income by far.

1 in 10 persons is a huge promotional joke. You would be nearer the point if it's 1 in 50 persons at this 30k a week. Unless it's an economically dense community.

Racoon:
Let all that he said come to pass first then it is confirmed what he said was true.

He has to name the politician. Else, if any dies and he tries to take credit, I wont believe him. The field is too wide.

Not yet uhuru for Nigeria. Until we sit up about these nefarious activities and their perpetrators we can get it right. Death sentence and immediate execution should deter some would be kidnappers. We are treating them with kid gloves.

CR7 is about to lose it all. What is it that remains in the National team of Portugal? At 41 his reflexes are no longer the same. He is pushing himself too far and that is not lost on the coach. The dancer who thrilled everyone should know when to leave the stage.

AMINDA:
What was the special thing that Wike did for Tinubu that will make him throw everyone under the bus for him? Makinde did more for Tinubu but Tinubu betrayed him for Wike. Tinubu got 450,000 votes in Oyo as opposed to the paltry 231,000 (rigged) votes he got in Rivers. Tinubu got more votes in Zamfara (298,000) than he got in Rivers. Yet, I have seen Tinubu lackeys insulting the Zamfara State governor because of Wike. Noise is not equivalent to substance. Tinubu only needed Wike in destroying the PDP which he has already achieved.

He needed Wike to win in the FCT and Rivers. Losing in the FCT was too painful. He didnt satisfy constitutional requirement by losing FCT. He didnt want such loopholes again. He isnt going to let Wike far.

FreeStuffsNG:
UNILAG and UI have done it again.

Ya. I am a proud Akokite. It's well.

This is very scary. You ca imagine the state of mind of the passengers!! Never heard of this before.

That's your tenant and financial adviser. Why are you upset? It didnt chew those money. It was prudent. And by the way, who spends 20 and 50 naira now? Why not give them out? be like say oga stingy small.

Kaa4:
Nobody is saying he should not have sought the best care he could afford, but to be used for advert? He should not have consented to such advert. I am certain that they would not have used him if he did not consent. So he did not do a good thing there. Simple

I am not sure he is even aware of the advert. It's their way. They did that with me. I objected and it was redacted

No wonder yahoo guys are cashing out lately. Lonely Chinese are the sponsors.

Look at this slut. In this era of missing ladies and ritualists that these mumus take such risks.

Pootle:
picking the nose like some rare gems are in there

Very gross I will run too if faced with such.

In oil rich state. Nigeria wetin do you? Bad leadership and leaders insulated from the people!

Farewell the legend. Olu Jacobs was in his own class. Steered in many classic films & movies.
At a tiime, I didnt know he was Yoruba because he effortlessly interpreted roles.

They should've gotten married.

Kpom kwem. It's ignorance that make people believe HIV is a death sentence. It's not. While not yet curable, anti retroviral can contain it perfectly.

Otele eriri eri. A woman proposing to another woman!

Traditional ruler and politician, who cares?

A slip. Not a Politician. A traditional Ruler.

Kelklein:
like the one you lots do here for 30k per month.. how did.you suddenly link this to politics now..

Search me. I am not YOU LOTS. I am NOT a politician. I am a traditional ruler.

Good. The right thinkers create jobs for themselves and others. The lazy ones join political badwaggons.

So how much is it by bus? Educate us more please.

olayinka63:
Sincerely, it always surprises me when I see Igbo and Christians saying Islam deprived women rights. I was like no be the same Igbo with barbaric culture against women? Seems they are ignorance of their root and culture.

So what happens to the husband brother?

I am curious to know what punishment was meted out against him.

It's a pity. What's the essence of these senseless killings and of joining a confraternity? Do they protect? No. At the last count, Sympathy was surrounded by enemies and his group was nowhere to be found.

Kingosytex:
Imagine the shame this would cause her family. Imagine the shame her children, grand, and even great grand children would be in right now.

What on earth would make a 100+ year old person who should be making her ways right and preparing for the journey to the great beyond engage in such activities? What could she be doing with money? Most at that age have lost their senses of touch, taste, and even out of touch with reality.

Then you forgot she could have been used by the real dealers for all of the above. Probably, not abreast of the issues. People used her because no one would arrest her. She's terminal. My take.

Who dies for politicians died in vain!
