To those that think military coup is the best way to stop major impunity in civilian government, you can now see the properties that only one army chief whose salary might not upto 2m acquired while in service.

The reality is that, every single soul in Nigeria is hopelessly corrupt due to uncertainty of future.

Africa need to solve her physiological needs, the only reason whites are less corrupt is because their governments take care of the children, old people, poor people and unemployed. The root causes of corruption in Nigeria is poverty and uncertainty of future.

Only those employed in December 2022 were sacked because it was a campaign employment

You see why we must all be reasonable when criticising government decisions. There are certain poor decisions of previous administration that are needed to be discharge to make things works. Only a visionary leader do this.

That says, it is injustice to be aportion blame on Tinubu after just 3 months in power. Please if you are one of them, stop it and let give him time to fix the mess. I am not his fan as well but he is already our president, let be positive and hope he move the country forward.

Badonasty:
lol…if anything happen to that ambassador na then Niger junta go know say dem don enter wahala

The Juntas are playing to their plan I think. Las Las, they will have reason to pull Gbagbo stunt on them if they mistakenly mishandled the situation.

I think I have responded to you on this topic on another thread before. But I'll do it again.

First of all, the Latin nomenclature is what most (but by no means all) US universities use in degree classification. It isn't very common for US schools to use the British system of classification (first, second, third class honours). Unfortunately, CSU has not made it clear what terms it uses to recognize distinction in schoolwork. All we have to go on is a statement purportedly issued by a Mr. Westberg stating that Tinubu graduated "with honours". How did this become a first class?

I don't think I ever discuss that with anyone before.

It is quite unfortunate that you can type like this when you are not in the midst of illiterates. So a whole university should call a press conference to clarify to you the system they used to grade Tinubu result?

Anyway, universities in United state normally make use of percentage% (A - F), which is also refers to as GPA in which 4.0 is the highest. They also call GPA of around 4.0 first class by virtue of being the first. First class, second class, etc are common terms use in degree classification in any English speaking countries. They may or may not directly write it on results, but that is the term generally use to called them after graduation.

Fujiyama:

There was no first class honours anywhere. None!

How did you know about this?

001Lagos:
Be fooling yourself with your own lies

When they ask you to show your certificate now, you will be stammering

Even after the the school publicly took their position?

No matter the prize involves, no schools in the world, not even highly corrupt ones will award or give you first class honours withiout attending their schools. It is common sense, anyone still doubting the authentication of his certificate after the school has publicly cleared him are only being bias.

Wike is just deceiving himself, with his appointment as minister in APC government, there is no way he will work wholeheartedly for PDP ever again. He is only waiting for PDP to finally scarter before he decamp to APC or form another party along with other key members to negotiate power sharing with APC or Labour party(if still popular again).

Defeated keh


Oga heaven and earth knows that Tinubu didn’t get upto 2,000 votes in the entire Rivers State

I can single handedly tell you no single person likes Tinubu in Rivers State not even Wike

Wike only did what he did so he can be on a safer side make Atiku no win show am shege

Bastards

Who tell you that, people can be laughing with you and at the same time do another thing at polling units. Since election is secret ballot, you can never tell who each person voted for.

These guys has money, influence and mobilizers. Quite alot of voters has collected bribes behind withiout you knowing. I have been to polling units different times before , so i know how things works. Besides, you don't expect thousands or millions of those whose families immensely benefited from existing system to vote Obi. They will only follow you with the trend and do their wish at the polls.

Labdi69:
I have noticed this more than once. Whenever i take a lady out to a fancy restaurant, she always looks for a way to talk down on the food and make it seem she’s been to better places.

This has happened more than once and with different ladies its not a cooncidence. Mind you, these are pricy restaurants.

For someone like me, even if the food is not good, i wont even say anything especially when im not paying.

Perhaps you are going out with irresponsible girls and gold diggers. No good girl do such, even if she knew deep down in her that she won't follow you there again.

Firstly, I won't outrightly say you should not go back to him because the way you women reason, only God knows. Please I take God beg you, if you must go back to him, make sure you do a strong family plan that won't fail you.

You are a responsible mother from what you wrote up there, just focus on your children, don't expect much from him. And like I said earlier, don't ever make a mistake of getting pregnant again.

not cheated oh. the yam is bigger a bit compare to camera.

go buy 2k yam and snap the picture.

He is probably being cheated or lying. I bought 6 pieces of this size or even bigger for 6k in Ibadan just this afternoon.

As long as you guys form big boys, these wicked sellers will continue to rip you off.

One of my close buddies got his us visa on the first try with fake bank documents. Really lucky dude.

Must you spew out this? You think they don't read this?

This is one of the reasons they rejects many genuine applicants.

Mummyfour:
21st if August, I was at the American embassy for a visa appointment.

From the period spanning 3 hours I was there, nobody left the interview room with a smile or laughter. Almost every one there was rejected.

The funniest thing about the rejection was the verdict on the light blue paper given to the intending travellers which read" you have not demonstrated that you have enough ties to bring you back to Nigeria "

In a layman's terms, it means we are suspecting that you want to japa into the US.

The most painful aspect was a lot of undergraduates that were turned down. A guy that had a $60,000 worth of scholarship was bounced too.

I saw someone who was just going on a study leave from a whole Deloitte where he works in presently in Nigeria being bounced too.
Most of the interviewers didn't even check out relevant documents of the applicants, but just drew their conclusion based on face value.

I was discussing with people and they said inasmuch as the reason for that verdict was baseless and stupid, we Nigerians are viewed as the worst of the worst world citizens to allow access into the US, irrespective of one's qualifications.
We have a government, system and people that are fantastically corrupt.
We have people who engage in and support illegalities.

Our judiciary is biased and is for the highest bidders, and our political system and elections are flawed (none is perfect anywhere in the world) but ours is glaring and very embarrassing.

Our leaders are not patriotic and that is why when we as citizens have our rights trampled on locally or internationally, nothing is done about it.
Nigeria is not regarded as anything again.
In other words, we are just seen as nothing but irritating pollutants.

So for those of you that applaud evil in this land, pray you remain forever in Nigeria because even if it is just to go and visit and come back, they will not allow you.
If you even have a scholarship or any good thing that can take you out of this country, you will be frustrated at the embassy.

And for those of you that left already and are destroying the name of Nigeria, God's punishment awaits you.
And for those that are still making us proud in the US and elsewhere, may God continue to bless your efforts

I rest my case.
Please mods front page

When they tell some people to stop damaging Nigeria names and their leaders integrity on Internet, they thought you are only doing that for political reason.

It is OK to condemn government or call out corrupt leaders through constructive statements or vote them out but everything is bad or not proper if you call your country or leaders all sort of derogative names for the whole world to see on Internet. These people relies mostly on online forums and social medias to get their information about your country, yet some people has made this their duty to keep damaging the integrity of the country they called home thinking they are doing already rich politicians.

People should only call attention of government to what we think they should do rather than criticising them irrationally or keep damaging the name of their country. You can't slap your father in the present of your friends and expect the same friends to respect you and your father or allow you to come close to theirs.

Maybe you're a time lord or went into the future or you have a time machine...i believe there was never a time XRP was $80. The highest was $3.84.

So correct....

Sorry, not XRP wanted to speak about LUN.

GRACEGLORY:
Bitcoin was the first and every other cryptocurrency (alts) came from it, just as Adam, then, eve and the rest of mankind.

You will not get rich with either Bitcoin or Ethereum as quickly or easily as the bitcoin Marxists claim, unless you are already rich, not even during a 10-year bull market. Those that bought BTC earlier or who can afford 1 BTC, 0.5, 0.02 and close, will always get the best opportunities there in. Perhaps, you bought BTC earlier too as a whole or in those fractions.

But stacking 0.00000001, it's suffer head investment.


The possibility to make something even more tangible is in alts.

And if you understand bitcoin and the essence of it's creation well, you'd understand that bitcoin need ALTS in some ways. Smart contracts... ALTS.

See, we'll see different coins occupying distinct niche markets as they make technology decisions and trade-offs in an effort to solve problems. This isn't just about money which is where most people miss it, and why the losers in the sphere are frustrated, this technology (blockchains, holochains, Hashgraph) is about how humans will have to evolve from the industrial-pre-tech age to the full blown technology age. Alts are projects that are here to solve different problems from different walks of life, medicine, housing, media, banking, finance, automobile, internet, and all.

Look at the web3, what is web3 all about, an idea for a new iteration of the World Wide Web which incorporates concepts such as decentralization. Look at the metaverse, 3D virtual space powered by technologies – including virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and blockchain. People are getting employment in augmented reality, church services are holding there already, McDonald opened an outlet in the metaverse already. You think this is all about bitcoin, it's far bigger.


Finding the fundamentally sound ones ALTS is important.

It's fine to be a bitcoin Marxist, but it's bad to be a Bitcoin Extremist, and it's not fair to mislead others especially the newbies .

You are still saying the same thing, narrating the problem majority of investors are having ( good capital).

Alts has proving to be bad investments since past 7 years, except inexperience people or newbies, no good crypto traders will ever rely on them anymore. Contrary to your opinion, you don't really need big capital to profit from Bitcoin, $500 and above is enough to make decent little but consistent income from Bitcoin.

For instance, when TRX, XVG was around $15, bitcoin was around $7k and BNB around $14 then, fast forward to today, the two coins mentioned are less than $1, while bitcoin and BNB has gone up to $26k and $220 respectively. There was a time XRP was around $80, and the same ripple now is less than $1. OG was around $15 two months ago, the same OG is now less than $5, I am sure it could still go down to $1 or less.

It was later I learnt from my Americans crypto lords i meet on Twitter that those making good return in crypto markets are no longer trading alts but Bitcoin and other major coins including fiat. They also invest little or nothing in ICOs and hope they later come into limelight.

XaToXi:
In addition to this, $34 on $1000 is 3.4% daily or 102% monthly ROI trading on spot. No bank gives this.

If that is too small, just note that btc will hardly pump more than 10% in a day or 30% in a week, so you can safely trade it on 3x to 10x leverage max to increase the returns stated above.

There are tools on binance you can use to auto dca and auto take profit.

You can't be getting that everyday o, there are some days you will get zero, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% etc of your investment. But if you are dedicated and serious, you should be making 30% - 50% of your investment monthly using the method.

Having read all the arguments here, if you really love your self and your investment, trade only bitcoin and leave all those shitty alts alone. Alot of these projects has been abandoned by the minners, you just keep investing in coins that will keep wasting your money whether bitcoin rise or fall. They rewards big but dangerously manipulated. Crypto market has been designed in such a way that only bitcoin and other major coins are viable now. Bitcoin is never like before that you will have a bull and bear market, it seems being float now, it has never gone down big or up like previous market conditions. For instance, since 2016 I stated, all the alts I knew including the recent ones has lost more than 10000%, and bitcoin has gained more than 400% during the same period.

Majority of us use small money to trade, reason you think you can't make it big from trading bitcoin alone. Between yesterday and now, you should have made not less than $34, if you trade bitcoin with just $1k. Besides, there is no day bitcoin don't make at least $300 interchange movements that you can take advantage of even with your lesser capital.

These are the major coins you should deal with because they align wuth bitcoin movement.

BTC, ETH, LTC, SOL, BNB and USDT trading.

NLchief:
I made a terrible oversight of not checking electricity bills before purchasing a house. It just completely escaped my mind till after purchase.

I just found out there's electricity debts of 500k unpaid to IBEDC.

How do I handle this?

I know it will be difficult getting such a negligent
previous owner to pay such bills.

This is what you will do, go to their office and ask for the bills guys in charge of that area. When you see the person, tell him you just bought the house, and you will need him to issue a new bill to you in your own name. Say you will give him 70k before he even open his mouth to talk about the old bill. He will definitely find a way to open a new bill for you in your own name. Use that new bill immediately to collect pre-paid meter.

Don't use the old bill to process prepaid meter o, because the debt would be transfer on ìt, and you will be force to pay a certain percentage whenever your recharge until the debt is cleared.

By the time Tinubu settled and starts reason this one matter, he would be force to join Adeleke in PDP with his remaining few followers.

Once again, offpoint. Your first sentence didn't answer me. Pls try again....

what will effect will his amen have on the prayer?

I have not sent these prophets, yet they run around claiming to speak for me. I have given them no message, yet they go on prophesying.

Go back to the post and read again, my first sentence has answered you.

Genuine men of God always pray for their countries leaders to be successful, and not engage in patrician politics. Medias are found of tagging everything pastors said on pulpits as prophesies, he was only praying for the success of the president.

Like I said before, good people don't wish evil on others or their countries, they are always optimistic for better tomorrow.

lexy2014:

Good people always pray for the success of their nations, while evil people pray for theirs to fall apart.

What will you gain by wanting him to fail other than bragging right about your candidate that lost the election?. Are you God who sees the future? What made you believe Obi would be any better and do all he said if he get there?

If a man can boldly says on state TV that he will quit politics the day he leave APGA, and still move from the same apga to pdp and now Labour party. Is this the same man you all believes all he has said?

A man who cannot keep his promises or principle should never be trusted or taking serious about his promise. That single act made me not to believe in him ever again. You can search for the video on YouTube and watch yourself. I did not even vote for BAT, neither am I opposing Obi presidency ambition, but let learn to accept reality and move on with our lives.

Try as much as possible to be a Liberal mind, pray for the success of your country irrespective of whoever be on that leadership position.

Watch what will happen on this W. F. Kumuyi thread

Many people who have never gone to church for the first time in their lives will be chanting "Amen man O God" "Thank you pastor"

Many people who spend their whole days bashing Christians and pastors will suddenly agree with this paid propaganda.

Many people who don't believe in God will suddenly tell you that this is a word from God, even when they are atheists.

What tribalism cannot do to the lives of some haters doesn't exist

Just say amen to the prayer and move on.

If Nigeria became good through him, we all rejoice, and if otherwise, we will feel the pain together, so why will you be pessimistic about good Nigeria you must be craving for in your mind?

Alusiizizi:
What are you thanking her for? Trust me, the likes of KoboJunkie or whatever her name is would be the last sort of people to be taking advice from. You will need to move back home with your Father and give some space, all that while, hoping that he gets his act together and accepts you back, but trust me, that one incident of you calling in armed policemen to manhandle your own husband will be the bane of your marriage for as long as it lasts. If you are a wise woman, you will devise ways to compensate for his eternal resentment of you, for the sake of your children.

You are 100% right, i am not sure that guy/girl is an African or maybe he/she is always doing that under the influence of weed.

The op has lot it all for good. If you investigate the genesis of this problem, you will realise it won't pass denying him of sex. Women have this stupid mentality that the moment you can't provide for them at home, you have no reason to control them again. Also, majority of this kind of women are chronic cheaters.

If you check her post very well, you will see where her husband accusing her of having extra-marital affair. The moment a man started suspecting his wife of cheating, just know she has been denying him sex or being unnecessarily rude. She may not be cheating but her action will say otherwise in the mind of her husband.

Getting him arrested and locked for two days has cemented his perspective about her. She should just give him a space first as you suggested.

Wodu89:
Don't downgrade 6M. I'm sure you can't gift it out. With investment of 6M in ordinary polythene (nylon) retailing, after a year one would have made 300-500% ROI. The issues is people with capacity think some businesses are too dirty and do not think in the direction at all


6M can establish multiple pos centres


6M will setup multiple viewing centres


Drink depot's


Wholesale distributorship


Food joints or canteens


Pepper soup relaxation joint


Convenient stores

Etc

Gone are the days you made good returns in those businesses you highlighted. All businesses are not easy as before, and they are already saturated. I am a business person to the core, and I can tell you the truth, except you are earning in dollars or already in a particular profitable business, it is much more better to keep your 6m in dollar or relocate to a good country.

#6m is nothing if you want to do a good business that will earn you a standard living.

Dey play o.

You can't avoid number 1 and 2 as human.

You need money to survive in this contemporary world, and girls are mostly attracted to wealth, in which you are not biologically capable of resisting all the time as a man.

Fear women!

She probably knew he wasn't gonna make it and decided to come inherit his bank accounts and properties.

The security agencies should investigate her properly to ensure she wasn't responsible for his death. Man didn't die all these while but the day she came, he died.

Thank you for this. Why is it that she only came the day her husband dies. She was probably contacted by someone who don't want all his properties be transfer to another person. Like you have rightly said, they should investigate her and the doctor involves.

Kingsmeal:
Sometimes I wonder the kind of archiac system we practice in this country.

Everything in this country seems to be in the analogue way, despite the fact that technology is helping out this time.


Just few days ago, I read an online article that FG has released a sum of N5bn to States for subsidy Palliative and I wonder why doing so.

According to statistics, Nigeria's population is around 220m, then why is the FG giving N5bn to each state to use for palliative?


Why can't the FG pay in Nigerians directly into their accounts to support them in this trying time?


N500bn was already ear marked and approved for this subsidy removal Palliative.


This will even help to bring alot of people out of poverty and also support those doing businesses or another form of survival job.


Why is Federal Government giving states these money, knowing fully well that nothing will get to the populace.

Ordinary Covid 19 Palliative, we saw how all the states hid the pallatives, including traditional rulers, while the masses were crying of hunger.


The BVN can even be used to make these payments through the CBN directly to the accounts of every NIGERIAN. And even those that do not have accounts can even use the opportunity to create one and get their BVNs too.

Why is the NIGERIAN govt still practicing archaic administration? Why Why Why?

These said pallatives will be looted, some will be shared to party faithfuls and loyalists in all these states and not even the actual populace. Some will even use the pallatives for election Campaign and thereby making look like they're doing the people a favour.


Nigeria Why? Why are you still in this mudane practice?

This is why Nigeria may never move forward. I am 100% sure you may be a youth who suppose to know better. In your myopic mind, 500bn will lift 220m people out of poverty?

And if we are to follow your analogy, where do you expect those actually in abject poverty to open an account in their remote villages that has never witness civilization since inception?

What about dormant accounts that are still valid? Should fg ignorantly paid into them too?

The problem facing by this country is largely humans factor, there is nothing bad by giving this money to state governments to distribute to locals accordingly but Nigerian factor will always come into play even if you pay directly into people's accounts. The reality is that, every single soul in Nigeria is potentially corrupt, we are only condemning them because we have never been giving an opportunity to be there.

They should rather use the 500bn to subsidise rice, vegetable oils and import enmass from Thailand. With this, every single soul will benefit from it withiout any fear of being left out.

obyno82:
If you think you can vote Asiwaju out after 4 years then you are highly deluded. That man would rather burn Nigeria than lose elections.

He will fail if majority if Nigerians made up their minds to vote him out. I still belive in this government to turn things out, because it is too early to castigate them base on what the local Daura man left behind.
