We once had a weekend when it was -5 and -8 in some places.
The news media called it the coldest day since the last three years.
And it was dry surprisingly. With lots of terrible black ice and other frigid conditions.

We didn't get as much snow as this.
Snow seems to fall instead of rain.
The cold atmosphere freezes every liquid leading to frost or snow.
So it could get as much as -20 without any white stuff.

Senator Mccain is a typical example after losing to Obama, His concession speech went from boos to hails.
Wow
You see
We all say how terrible these politicians are. At least, they hold Nationality and Patriotism dear to their heart. They wont destroy century old system of governance that other countries also follow. Peace is not easy at all.
People should also praise Jonathan for what happened at Mali.

Life is really important, if an American politician takes a life, this will be seen for the greater good, and it must go through different thoughts, process and Red-tapism.

Trump should have spoken to the family of those killed at the protest he instigated. Trump should have called the family of George floyd after the whole world witnessed that gory scene. He just considers everyone as pawns to be moved around a chess board.

That senator went from getting boos to being hailed....

Allegedly The Minister of Finance said that Nigerian government will pay for vaccination of 50% of residents —
I am very sure they will sort themselves and their loved ones first, and do as you said.
They have to find a way to get the right vaccine for free!
With the plenty money I have now, I'm gonna get the vaccine for free. If I'm doing the Test for covid, it's free!
If I want to do HIV test, free!!!
If I need HIV or sti treatment, free!!
If I want condoms, I just walk to the nearest Pharmacy and pick it up for Free!!!

Then we're asking people that at least 50% live in poverty based on UN standard to pay for the Vaccine. That's wrong!
People will have to choose between food and vaccine. Theyll rather feed themselves than look for vaccine for an infection that's yet to come. Starvation is knocking at the door everyday

Ha Chiggs, don't believe everything you see and hear from the mainstream media, everything follows a narrative orchestrated by the few corporations controlling them.

For example, after the mad man Trump won the 2016 election, thousands of people protested and said he was not their president, blocked highways, damaged properties but the media said it was ok as long as it was against Trump, the media also supported false claim that there was Russian collusion that helped his victory (it was properly investigated for 3 years only for the Mueller's report to show that there was no Russian collusion)

You might be surprised to realise Biden has said more disparaging and racist things about blacks than Trump, and one would expect the media to expose both as equally racist and show their racist history, but no, the media gave Trump the racist tag and portrayed Biden as the sweet loving angel.

Both Hillary and Trump supporters share some striking similarities but the media protected one against the other
1. Both equally opposed and protested against a democratically elected president as if that will somehow change the outcome.
2. Both believe the elected president didn't win legitimately (media supported Hillary's Russian collusion claim but opposed Trump's election fraud claim).

The media used to be balanced and fair bringing both the good and the bad of every sides but not anymore, and for the first time in history, their is growing mistrust of the media due to a lot of misinformation and sensationalism.


Trump is not a leader.
Trump is not fit and proper to be the President
Trump is not an Ideal leader in a Democratic system.

Because you're good in business, doesn't mean you'll be good in politics.

The difference between those that protested when trump won and now was the kinds of things they destroyed. You can't destroy and interrupt democracy at work and expect the media to be quiet.

The caliber of people that marched out were White supremacist, like of Q-bullshit and so on. I never saw a coloured person among them. No sane coloured person should be in that gathering. Even that day, one Nigerian woman was walking by and they removed her wig and almost choked her in public. She said she was lucky to be alive.
White supremacist are everywhere, but their voice is the loudest in America. That twitter guy in Ireland saying shit about Nigerians is among.

Conspiracy theory shouldn't be supported. I read a conspiracy book about Barack Obama that was released within two years he became the president. I never knew better, I was in secondary school then.
The book was written by White supremacist against Obama administration.

They said Barack Obama was Anti Christ, that the world will end in 2012. The rapture will happen very soon. We are in 2021 now.
My take on conspiracy theories is that, they are for shallow thinkers and uneducated.
Chris Oyakilome is now championing conspiracy theory in nigeria.
How can you say 5G caused corona virus.
How you can know a conspiracy theory is that, they are not backed by facts.
In my comment above, I said I won't take the vaccine in Nigeria. I won't try is because we have poor system and governance. There's no check and balances. If I react poorly to the vaccine in Ireland, I can drag the vaccine company to court and could claim damages of one million Euros, with this money, I don't have to work for life, ill use it to treat myself.

If the vaccine goes wrong in Nigeria, who will I hold?
We all know how much manipulation goes wrong, the substandard items we get from China while Europe gets top quality, the Covid palliatives that got stashed in a warehouse till they got expired, the technicalities of the logistics involved with some of the vaccines. Basically, government needs to actively come out to ensure that we get uniform vaccine, that what they bring to Nigeria is certified by WHO.
The one they are doing on TV, lol

If the likes of Trump was a president in Nigeria, with the ramshackle system we have, trump would have won. Everyone has the potential to do evil. But the proper system and accountability will ensure you put your best foot out.
You think it's easy to be a politican?
I had to watch the movie Lincoln 2012, and you need to watch the almight Lincoln pull strings to get votes for the 13th Amendment that ensured that Coloured people are free!

Democracy knocks out violence out of the table, you play games of the mind. You think those protesters were going to sing lullaby to the members of parliament?
They were going to maim and draw blood that day.
A typical politican that lost an election with no evidence of manipulation should have started saying congratulations to the winning opponent.
For the greater good, putting your selfishness aside, for peace to reign, just like Goodluck Jonathan did. Just bow and walk away with your dignity.

Happy New Year Everyone, I have been really busy of late.

First I want to appreciate chiggs for starting this thread and then I want to really appreciate those that reached out to me and patronized my guy to get cute hair cut, I hope you liked his service.

Thank you for trusting me first of all and then thank you for the referral. God bless you.

If anyone needs the service of a barber, please DM me for that cut to bring out the cuteness in you.


Please if anyone knows any recruiting agent or any job that would allow 20hr per week, please share. Or any legit hustling things, please share.

@chiggs
Please can you share more info on how to be a care giver... The link, the fee, what it takes, requirements, we are interested.



You're welcome
He gave me a good haircut and i liked the chat.
Basically, I invite people around so he can cut them.

There's tendency for the Nigeria leaders to use the right vaccine on Live TV and distribute vaccine that has not validated.

You guys should open your eyes and demand for the right vaccine. They might even start selling it. Hian!

From the argument between you and that guy, no country is perfect, in the end, I might love to spend some time in the UK myself. But this country offers its benefit. The Visa pathway is quite straightforward and easy just like the UK.

This man Trump.....
We are our own leader. Follow your instincts, never be a blind follower.
A lot of people in the DM have asked me, that they have the option to go to the UK or Ireland. I tell them, FOLLOW YOUR PATH.

Not everyone will end up in America or Canada.
Majority of students here have received resounding slaps in the form of rejection from these countries. Some well-known people in Nigeria like Sam Adeyemi, who wanted to go to the UK to wash dead body, first time he went there, he stayed in a Four star hotel, either 4 or 5, not sure.
Rev George Adegboye, was suppose to relocate abroad permanently to do odd jobs till God-Knows-When. He got rejected.
And he has been to more than a 100 country and enjoys the best life can offer.
Some of you will end up in Italy, France, Germany, Poland, Luxembourg, ..... Nigeria shocked
You might do well than those in USA, Canada or UK.

Remember those that say if they don't enter Unilag, they will not agree.
A cousin of mine did that. 6 years went by. Those that went to other schools, finished, served, hustled and got job. That was when the fellow applied to yaba tech.

Our story is different.
Everything I do here is to show you a new path, expose you to the new things I learn, give you needed information about Ireland. Although I have a lot in my head but lack the time to pour it out. As I keep learning, more keep coming. Strange situation right.

Be your own person. Don't get inspiration from ONE person. You'll be shallow and vulnerable. When this person you look up to falters, your life is ruined.
Bible says, Looking unto Jesus.
Why are we in a society if you admire ONLY one person. You need to balanced, be open to accepting different figureheads that will inspire and nurture you to your potential.

I was watching Aljazeera two days ago and watched in awe. Trump kept dishing out conspiracy theory upon conspiracy theory that afternoon.
It was like a dose of drugs. Blind followers ran like mindless sheep to the Capitol Hill. This is like beacon of democracy. If those parliament members were inside when they came, they would have all been lyched.
Not only will America fall, leaders that behaved themselves cos of America will rise and show their true colour. This man Trump is a dictator but the system around him is iron clad. That's what we need in Nigeria. System and Parastatals won't allow such insidious people to thrive.
A lot of people will still rush to those churches that pray for Trump to win. I hear some churches telling members there's a chip in the vaccine. Is that what God told you
Like Tracy said, if they want to put a chip, they'll put it in the coke, toothpaste, and so on.

Don't just look up to any man, look at them in bunch. It can come in form of president, pastors, celeb and so on. This will ensure you don't follow blindly.

Let me tell you something shocking!!!!
You guys know how Trump sent those people there. With five losing their lives.
Trump came out last night to say that. If you're at Capitol Hill, you'll face the full wrath of the law. Somebody has to take the fall. Trump ran to sacrifice them. Sheeples!!!!
During the BLM protest last year, trump made a law that if you destroy public property,you'll face minimum of TEN years in jail.
One of the Domestic terrorist even wore his office ID card there. The office sent out a tweet, he shouldn't show his face in their office again.

With the way this country((Nigeria) and Africa as a whole is going,I don't think we will ever measure up to the standard of the Europeans and the Americans because we are not even ready for it.

I told one of my Irish colleagues, that ones the vaccine becomes, available, I'll be the first in line. If the vaccine wasn't properly developed, it would have been sent to Africa FIRST.

You are doing well bro cool. BTW I read up there where you said the Irish government gives people €350? Is that unemployment benefit or just a generous hand out?
I worked for two days before the lockdown, so I applied for unemployment payments.
My friend never got a job then, so he applied for Job seeker payment. Whether you had a job or not. Whether you paid tax or not, everyone was accepted. I'm not entitled to that money. I'm grateful TBH.
