Sowore should start from governorship. Presidency is too big for him. Nobody will hand over the presidency to a man who hasn't held a big public office before. Power and money corrupt people.

Plus, Atiku should support Peter Obi for a better Nigeria. Power should remain in the South. Nigeria needs a man with stamina to personally supervise his appointees and be sure they are doing the right thing because Nigerians are dubious people. Obi is the only person who has the energy to do this at this time.

If you are aligned with political power play since 1999, you will know that the so called merger is a mere waste of time. It would've worked 100% perfectly during last election.

North is a major stake holders in any presidential election in Nigeria, and they will never allow another southerner who may spend another 8 years with 4 years of Tinubu to emerge. Southern politicians too will never accept a Nothern candidate to take over again after just 4 years of southerner as president. The reality is that, North would rather back Tinubu for 4 more years and have what they cherish the most (POWER), than to vote another southerner. If the said merger nominate a Northerner, southern politicians will most likely align with Tinubu. Alot of key players who want power in APC too will back him from the North.

We are practically stuck with Tinubu till 2031. Book mark this post, this what is going to happen.

Enemiesmasquera:
Foolishness is when you elect a criminal old drug lord as president and resort to praying for him to succeed. There are many foolish people in Nigeria and that's why the country will hardly go forward

You have a state governor, local government chairman, Rep and Senator representing your state or town who should invest more in Agriculture and youths empowerment, but president at far away Abuja is your problem.

That is reason these governors and others became looters they are today. They knew alot of youths are educated illiterates, hence their reason to take us for fools.

Your state and local governments are the reason you can't make progress, not president.

No formation can work for Eagle as long as we don't have quality players. These guys are just not good enough, that is all.

The North is not ready, kidnapping started in the southeast but when it was about to swallow them up, they came together to form Bakassi boys which salvaged the ugly situation. When One Million boys were becoming a menance in SW, the leaders including traditional leaders and OPC rose to the challenge. Yahaya Bello recently derobed some traditional rulers in Kogi state and were exiled out of the state to neighbouring states for alleged involvements in insecurity, that sent a strong signal.
I was shocked reading an account by a man in Zamfara whose daughter was forcefully married off to a group of bandits. Funnily, the man did not raise an alarm when the bandits had asked him not to give out his daughter to someone else, he didn't report to the security when the bandits gave him an ultimatum to bring back his daughter from her husband, he only contacted the security after the bandits came back to attack him and went to his daughter's house and took her away from her husband.

-kiss the truth!

100% right, I don't take such news serious again especially if it happened in the North. All these kidnappers and terrorists are living among them, and they know everything about them and their lineage, so why is it difficult for them to fish them out.

If the North could think of creating hisbba police, why can't they do the same like other regions to tackle crimes in their domain? It is quite obvious that some elements within them don't want this to end, hence their reluctant to do something about it.

Ice will start trading on the 19th. Hope you've been up with your mining.

Thought October 7th is their Mainnet launch date?

Modified! Saw it now that OKX has listed it for Spot trading. This is a massive gift for a new year.

Nonny95:
Your god Tinubu moved from

SDP to AD to ACN to APC.

I know you're a kid to know this. I am waiting for you to give your gods prostitution another name like metamorphosis, transfer, merger blah blah.

No no no, that is transition in real term. AD, ACN and now merger APC are all emerged from SDP. They are the same people with the same ideology.

Political prostitute is a situation where a politician move from one different parties formed by others to anothers. Tinubu has never done that in his political career.

In as much as we all hate APC, these set of thieves calling for merger to wrestle power from them are not any different, they are only after power and not well being of Nigerians. Let us all call for regionalism and stop all this silly ethnic politics.

GanagiBitrus:
True Federalism with greater devolution of powers to the States & resources control by states will make every State to look inwards & aim to be self sufficient.

You'll be surprised by the progress made by each State after 10years.

Devolution of power to the states won't still work, it will only enriched already corrupted politicians at state levels.

Let there be regional government and local governments directly under the control of the former. States are the sources of our backwardness, end states today and see how much progress we will made in 4 years, even with the current constitution.

Not working.

Being awhile I commented in Romance section .

@op, you don't need women for whatever reason except for business or to sleep with. Be focus on your goal , only a weak man chose women as friends. From my years of experience in life, only your mum, wife or some female family members should be consider, others has nothing to offer you than pains. If you are single and need sex, just pick one and do the do without being on losing side to her.

Besides, if you don't want women to know you need sex from them or use them for business, then what is the point of relating with them? Women only offer emotional baggage or financial responsibility on male friends, and I hope you realise this someday.

IVORY2009:
She knows her husband better than you do

Dey play, no one on earth can be 100% trusted with sex and money. The earlier you realise this, the better for you.

tosinhtml:
Extremely NOT.

I used to be that person that over show poor people kindness, but recently I have realised that poor people see what you have and believe you don't deserve it, they look at you & ask themselves why they are not in your position. Anytime someone notices my freehandedness in giving out money, they always try to come up with issues from the family that is of no business of mine just to syphon money out of me.

Today their mother has a broken leg, tomorrow their sister is pregnant but doesn't have money to pay for hospital bills, next tomorrow their Dad is in the hospital and needs 250k for surgery. Their needs are endless.

I still have an open hand to giving to the poor but strategically, I do it to buy loyalty now because the only thing the Nigerian system understands is MONEY.

During Xenophobia retaliation attacks in Jakande Lekki, I saw poor people looting out franchised Shop Rite and their usual tone & consensus was that the Rich owns the place, they buy from there. Why should they be able to purchase those things while we are not able to do the same. I saw old women in their 50s, Men, Ladies & other able bodied men loot electronics and goods from honest people's market with an excuse that they are poor. Random big cars on the road in Jakande were attacked & the excuse was that they are rich, they are the ones stealing Nigerians money.

The poor lives on survival instinct, I can never feel guilty for enjoying the riches God gave me & also from the work I did.

Let them go & work!

That is why we must collectively create enabling society where every human will have access to basic needs of humans existence. There is no particular behaviour that is peculiar to poor or rich people. Poor people dislike their conditions, and always strive so hard to be like rich. Rich people on the other hands enjoy the privilege of being rich, and therefore do whatever in their capacity not to be like poor. What we called hatred or arrogance sometimes is a product of conflicting interest between the two social classes.

My point is that, people are the same, what make them different is resources in their pocession. A rich man who think a poor man is foolish and aggressive today, can also do the same if he become poor. A poor man who think a rich man is arrogance today can also do the same if he become rich. The most important thing is to have egalitarian society where everyone will have at least access to basic needs, and that is when the rich and the poor will co-exist peacefully.

iykofias:
Seun please ignore this woke fellow

His kind will not think twice to inflicts pains on his fellow humans but here talking as if he has a single bit of sympathy to his society and country men.

If every Nigerian is that good, Nigeria will never be like this. Hypocrites lots.

VinnyBaba:
OP,

Employees (particularly in Nigeria) are more TERRIBLE than Employers.

Some likes to Come Late, Press Phones during Work hours, Gossip and
Even Steal company's property when they are going home.

Exactly 💯, an average Nigerian employee only focus on his/her pay check and not your business or company.

Only few employers are wicked to workers that help them improve their income or sales, compare to employees that majority of them are only after their salaries and your downfalls.

Imagine what 37b can do in the lives of Nigerians. It is quite obvious that politicians at every level of government stole more than national budget in 6 months.

And that will be easy ride for APC, especially if Obi do not get the same popularity by then.

PDP won't even dare it.

CaptainAyub:
Replaced by a Yoruba

Until Seun started giving people like you a very long ban on Nairaland, other tribalists won't learn to approach issues objectively.

Are we not suppose to applaud Mr. President decision to sack her for misappropriation of fund meant for social programs? Would you rather praise him for appointing a corrupt person in office just because she is not from his tribe?

Forumites:
So one military colonel won’t just come and save our ass. Nigeria Army where are you people na. Make una come save us ooooo

100 billions would also build around 35,000 units of two rooms self apartments for 950 families in each 36 states.

Nigeria government are too wasteful, and probably has no mental capacity to know the path to development.

No sensible government should allocate money to pallatives, schools feeding and religions sponsorship. Let local government do that for God sake.

abdeefggh:
This man actually did well during his tenure, Osun state had the least poor people and least unemployment rate in Nigeria during his tenure. He also constructs one the best roads and obviously the best schools in Nigeria till date,Free food for students etc.

He is actually not doing a bad thing if wishes his successor follow his steps, i am sure people of osun will vote for him 100 times if it's possible. The dancing governor should prepare to leave in 2026

Stop saying what you don't know, Aregbesola is an empty headed leader that ought to be in local market selling meat. What stupid legacy was he talking about? Was it same uniform for all schools in the state? Was it half salary he was paying state workers? Was it irrational Airport projects he wasted billions on? Was it a scam "Opon Imo" tablet project he wasted over 8 billions and yet only about 5% students can access it? Is it a debts that next 5 governors cannot offset?

Aregbe is not the kind of character that should head public office, the evidence shows during his tenure as interior minister. Just looks at the achievements and steps this new guy has made in just few months.

Davidnilla:
I'm 21 years, tho my problem started last year. Doctor asked if any of my family members were hypertensive.

My sister just checked her bp, it was the same 130/90 and she's living normal.

I'm confused why I'm having serious symptoms with that level, my sister is 26

What really happened, you are not suppose to have BP at that age. Even hereditary ones are usually manifest much later in life. Since your sister also face the same issue, it could be hereditary.

Remove your mind totally from anything related to BP, stop worrying about it and start living happily. Don't let them place you on BP drug until you must have tried lifestyle change and the symptoms still keep coming.

Finally, stop Googling or looking for what is going on in your body over the Internet, you will only end up in serious BP and depression. Virtually all sicknesses has the same symptoms, approach your doctor or pharmacist for proper medical examination if you feel like something is not right with your body system.

Davidnilla:
For the second time in a roll, my blood pressure is 130/90

My common problems now are palpitations and arrythymia, when I lay down to sleep, I can feel my heart beating all over my body.

My heart beats faster when I stand up, even without doing anything.

Listen here, when this started newly, there's a medicine doctor gave me, when I took it first, it felt like everything is normal (it's medicine used to treat hypertension),

1 month later, Omo, seems like the medicine doesn't work anymore.

At times if I don't take it for 1 week, and take it again, it works perfectly that day I resume taking it, from next day, it goes back to not being effective.

What could be the problem? Medicine not working abi condition got worse to be controlled

Note - I'm seeing a doctor already, I just wanna hear from experienced fellas here

130/90 is not high especially if you are over 40. Besides, some are naturally around that range withiout being hypertensive.

If you tell people that hypertension can vanish the same way it comes, some will start calling you illiterate. Just embark on lifestyle change and see result yourself. Those that live like a bird don't have hypertension, I hope everyone get the logic.

naijapips04:
The best thing I've read this year. Aside status, owning a house is not a good investment. For a struggling guy, grow the shit out of that 25m. 25m in a good business should give us at least 70m in a year. Rent and grow this. In , 4 years, use the residual income to buy a house. Don't go and dump all your life savings in a house.

Lolz, you will still get to a stage where you realise having your own house when you have the money is an investment in itself. Business can collapse anytime but your house will be there for you. Besides, you can use the house to get a big loan to improve your business. Just get C of O, it won't cost you more than 500k, then any bank would be more than ready to loan you more with good interest rate.

Jagabanarmy:
Well said..a lesson to politicians

Lolz, what lesson exactly do you want those hardened criminals to learn about. It is not today that politicians die in office, so this one too won't make any difference.

cybergawd:
Fubara must be a wimp, a toothless bulldog.

He is a wise man, he probably saw what majority of us don't see. It would've been a different ball game if Wike doesn't have federal backing. If he refuse to accept the agreement, they will simply use court to authenticate the position of defected 27 law makers and impeach him.

Tunubu and APC want Rivers and Kano by all means, and they can do anything to have it. Fubura is bound to defect to APC before 2027 general election. Tinubu is not the kind of politician you gave federal power withiout knowing how to use it. Expect nothing less than APC and other tiny parties that may not gather a million votes in 2027 general elections.

This is not a good sign for our democracy.

Earthen:
Zenith bank behaves like a thief.
How can they deduct 50k and tell me it is for a transaction done in June!!!

None please, just download OPAY or Moniepoint and have a rest of mind.

BluntCrazeMan:
So...


What's the reason for the Gift??

Random Selection?
Or something she did in the past?

She woke up from sick bed and picked one unknown number that turn out to be Musa who eventually gave her house where she based in Abuja. That is all.

DaddyFreeze2020:
What of men journalists like Seun, Rufai and others who have made more impact in the media world that women.
I hope Ahmed Musa is not starting another family

It looks more like Musa buys house for his sidechick but use that channel to cover up.

Valoromega:
I've thought about this and it's a very good reason. I won't lie, when it comes to my pregnant wife and the baby, my mother inlaw will go through hell for them. When the baby is born she will be the one to do the caring. I think I'll sacrifice 100k to buy the rice and other things for both my mom and my mother in law. But I tell me wife I bought it on credit ( the seller is close to us)

Don't mind those who are advising you not to buy anything for your parent and inlaw. This is a season of love, I've personally gives items to 2 widows I knew, my parents, inlaw and my former sale girl. I am not rich but this is what I do every year( though this year gifts were not robust). Since you are not totally broke, you can manage to get them something with just 50k or even less, they will appreciate it than nothing.

Country is hard, only a fool will not appreciate little you give, so do what you can afford.

HenryTimes:
Are you in Nigeria?

Yes, and there is nothing like that here.

HenryTimes:
Both Emefiele and Sabiu no dey government again, wetin make the naira scarce again

Which naira is scarce please?

All ATM machines and POS agents I checked has cash with them, so where is scarcity?
