South Africa still doesn't come close... you're fascinated about the digitalized election process, I understand.
Their popultion there is about 64 million while Nigeria's population is about 232 million
This makes no sense.

Even with the huge population, South Africa voters turnout and that of Nigeria is almost the same.

Even with that, with the fact that they had similar voting strength, Nigeria election budget was double that is South Africa.
Crime / Re: Soldier Slaps Woman Into Coma At Banex & Takes Her Away by Coldie(m): 3:20pm On May 21
LexngtonSteele:
angry

That kind of slap is called Factory Reset.

All this fight would have been resolved by less gragra from both parties.

Some people derive joy & pride from slapping a military man during mob action.
Ur bio says say no to tribalism. But u are talking very uncivilised.

On a very good day, what are soldiers looking for in a civilian matter.

On a very good day, if whatever happened happened, police is already there to solve the situation and there’s a chance that Police already arrested the culprits and the soldiers would have taken the culprits away from the police.

Why exactly is the plaza shutdown?

So someone in shop z commits a crime someone in shop Q would pay for it, in this time that Nigeria is hard, with people in extreme poverty?

It’s 100% a possibility that the woman might have been ignorant, but how does that translate to the treatment she received from the soldiers?

In Nigeria we excuse so many nonsense, nobsense Ends when we acknowledge that certain things are nonsense, not when we see nonsense we start excusing it and passing blames, instead of out rightly saying NO to it.

Travel / Re: FG Announces Free Ride On Port Harcourt-Aba Railway From May 1-4 by Coldie(m): 7:03am On May 01
jmoore:
I am interested to know how many hours it will take from Aba to PH. And what is the capacity?
The train will run at a loss, especially now that ph aba road is under heavy construction to the highest standards by the Abia state government.

Ph aba road has many fly overs at the ph area, which cuts the journey by hours, if not for the bad roads in the Abia section, it takes 2hours by bus without any traffic for a cheaper price.

Y would anybody pay that amount to enter a train that would take 5hours whose fans are not working?

Crime / Re: What It Means When The Court Grants Bail In The Sum Of N20m Or Any Other Amount by Coldie(m): 10:02pm On Apr 17
Available9:
Please educate them

Let me add my voice

Granting someone bail at any amount simply means that the person who will stand as surety to the accused must be ready to pay that amount when the accused runs away before the conclusion of the case, meaning the surety is not even paying any money before the release of the accused...even cubana doesn't know the meaning of bail, hence he wouldn't have posted that "money na water "...no one paid any money...it is simply a condition should the accused runs away


I bet 99.9 % of nairalanders do not know this
Nigerian police taught us the wrong way.

So police that have been collecting money from people, what do they call that?

Nice one.
See them apc supporters, they support any nonsense that sinks this country then later they blame other people for not been patriotic,

Nigeria doesn’t need solar subsidy, tomorrow they might start taxing solar users saying they want to repay the loan.

What they should do is remove custom and import duties on solar energy imports and leave the rest.

BrighterSyde:


Honestly the way you reason baffles me. But I will answer your question. No it is not compulsory to use all those services when one can’t afford them.

Now answer this. Is it possible to afford all those services on a 200k salary as the man you are defending said?
I mean a man told a blatant lie to buttress his point and an educated man like you is asking if it is compulsory to use these services? How low are we going mentally?

Let me see if you can answer the question.
The foolishness is unbelievable. Maybe because he see government workers who earn 200k monthly with driver, maid, gateman and they think it ends with the 200k they earn

Do you buy a bag of rice every month? And can you also mention one country that sells fuel at the equivalent of N150 per litre anywhere in the world.
Una go just dae lie to Una selves. The only place 200k can be enough for you in this Nigeria is except u live in a village.

Apart from the inflation there’s so many things that will take that 200k away from you, u would buy fuel, electricity bill right now in Nigeria is high, you would pay for vigilante in ur area, sometimes if ur road is bad you have to contribute money to fix it, you would also pay for transformer if its bad, small police problem you would pay, in Nigerian standards except you live in a village in the north 200k is nothing.

2000 pounds in the uk is a good pay and the average minimum wage. That can do alot for you. It’s only quite little in London cause London is the most expensive city. Living with 2000 in London is far better than living with 200k in somewhere like lekki

But he his saying the truth now.
Stop lying.

London is uk most expensive city, it’s like saying someone earning 200k in lekki is richer than someone earning 2000 pounds in London.

The only thing expensive in London is just rent nothing more. 100pounds would feed u properly in London for a whole month, as a single person 1k pounds can pay ur rent. 2k pounds is enough for you, and you can still save 5h pounds every month

If you are earning 200k strictly in Nigeria you are in poverty though.

Politics / Re: Kanu’s Family Knocks South-East Politicians For Abandoning IPOB Leader by Coldie(m): 1:41pm On Mar 22
sirpharrell:
Nnamdi Kanu and his family are still living in the past. They have failed to realise that NK has lost his awe and political relevance and it is all due to his fault.

When he was released from the first detention in 2017, he was like a colossus and was literally worshipped by the Igbos who are naturally desirous and always eager for someone to hero worship. He should have seized that opportunity to quickly transform himself to the political leader of the South East.

At that point, politicians were falling over themselves to have a picture with Nnamdi Kanu. Any candidate or party he endorsed would have won elections easily. And that is what he should have done. His adopted political party would have swept the south east and maybe by now, he would have had all five south east governors under his control. Then, you can effectively fight for a referendum if that was his real objective.

But he allowed the hero worshipping to get into his head and he lost focus. Instead of strategising on how to make use of his cult following to gain political power, he started an underground warfare, flatantly abusing his bail conditions thinking that he was now untouchable. That is what landed him in this condition now.

I am sure he must be regretting his missed opportunity now. But it is too late to make amends, a lot of water has passed under the bridge. He is no longer firmly in control of his IPOB and the Inos have got a new hero now to worship in the person of Peter Obi. Nnamdi Kanu and his family should face the reality now. This is no longer 2017.
FG could have considered releasing him but after he made that brash statement, that if he is released insecurity in the east would end in 2 minutes, I just knew he isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

He is sending a message that if they ever arrest him the SE will implode. FG would want to stop the insecurity without releasing him, and take all the glory

It's not a new thing in the north, that was where I saw noodles and pasta being measured like rice in the markets. This was as far back as 2008. It's dog's food that's packaged like this here in the south but up north, that's how they do their thing
U guys would excuse any nonsense.

The reason u saw those things in the north was cause the north has majority of Nigeria’s poor and poorest people. If we are beginning to see such trends in the south that means the country north, east, south, west are all in poverty.
