Phones / Re: Woke Up To My Barred MTN Line by DeOTR: 3:02pm On Jul 29
I was the first set of people who linked their lines to their NIN. The moment MTN started threatening to bar my line if I don't visit their office, I simply visited Airtel office instead to port my line. No time for rubbish.

Richtaiwo:

You are specifying some few spots where it happens in the North. Now compare it with states where it happens everywhere on the streets and the actors are even boasting about it. Whenever reports throw the reality of your activities to your face, you start pointing fingers at the North. If the report had placed more number on the North, pretty sure you will start insulting muslims and islam.
It's your problem if you think my comment has anything to do with Moslems and Islam.
There's no where you'd go in Nigeria that you won't get laid, no matter how religious they might want people to think they are. That's the reality and this is not even a few places in the North. You'll see it everywhere if you look well enough.
I travel a lot and I know much about places and people in Nigeria. I can bet you, vices and immoralities are more rife in the North. From drug abuse, theft, and prostitution. Just name it. They're are just being hypocritical.
I'm not defending sexual immoralities or trying to draw any parallel here. Heck! I'm not even from any of the states listed there.

You people think politicians are scared of southern youths protest No no grin grin grin. They are fleeing Nigeria cos there is an intelligence report that elements from Niger have been imported to turn the protest to a revolution. The north seems involved and only north can lead a dangerous protest that can shake government in Nigeria
It's a good thing that this is coming from the North. Me, I personally believe Nigeria will break from the North.
They're the only one with the morbid fear of the eventual disintegration of the country. They should be aware they can lead to their fear come true.
At least, we all can now agree to sit down and chart the course of our destiny or go our separate ways.
The President should use this opportunity to restructure the country to the way it was before the senseless coup in 1966.

Waywardson6:
OP stop being bias with your news writing. When a police is on scene, one is authorized to raise their hands or stand still without holding anything. She carrying a pot of hot boiling water can definitely be perceived as a weapon & attempt to attack the officer with it. He saw her as a threat, plus she told him: "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus." Definitely, she sounded unstable & a threat to him. Fact, racism is real, but at the same time, doing what is right at the right time is also very important.
Don't worry, a Police officer will soon unalive you and that'll be the exact excuse. Idiot son of a bitch.

Since you're so learned in history, kindly tell us which are?
Mentioning earliest institutions of learning and Oxford is what came to your mind?
A lot of earliest monasteries that dated back to the first 500 years after Christ and morphed into universities later on had nothing to do with the Catholic Church.
The church of England from the onset, didn't have much relation with the church of Rome. Their doctrines are different.
And yea, Catholic Church fought tooth and nails to suppress knowledge, so I understand how you're giving them the credits for what other founding fathers did.

Politics / Re: Senate Sacks Ali Ndume As Chief Whip over Anti-Tinubu Comments by DeOTR: 1:33pm On Jul 18
Unperturbedpota:

It's amusing how you think towing the party line is the ultimate measure of sense and loyalty. Your narrow-minded view that dissent within a party is unacceptable shows a lack of understanding of democratic principles and healthy political discourse.

Sanctioning and disciplining someone for voicing their opinion only highlights the authoritarian streak within your beloved party. True democracy thrives on debate, dissent, and the ability to challenge leaders without fear of retribution. Your call for Ndume to be silenced or kicked out of the party just underscores your preference for blind obedience over critical thinking.

If you believe that Ndume's history discredits him, present the facts instead of resorting to baseless accusations and simplistic solutions. Suggesting that anyone who disagrees should just leave and join the opposition is a cowardly way to avoid addressing the real issues within your party.

Your defense of Tinubu and the APC at all costs, even when faced with legitimate criticism, shows that you're more interested in preserving power than fostering a true democratic environment. Until you can embrace the concept of constructive dissent and understand that healthy debate strengthens, rather than weakens, a party, your arguments will continue to lack depth and credibility.

Grow up and realize that democracy isn't about unquestioning loyalty—it's about holding leaders accountable, encouraging diverse viewpoints, and ensuring that the best ideas rise to the top, even if they come from within.
Chief Whip of the Senate is a position reserved for members of the party that has the majority in the house. Nobody is stopping him from voicing his concerns, they're only telling him step aside from that particular role, so he'll have free-hand to say whatever he wants.
If he thinks publicly criticizing the president of his own party is best while he's holding the position of the Chief Whip, then the party also reserves the right to tell him to step aside.

At least, we'll be able to hold the LG chairmen responsible for their own deeds.
They're not meant to be figure heads. LG is supposed to be self-governed, independent from the state.
Next step is to have INEC conduct their elections and mandate their terms in office to be 4 years.

GDP growth in a country with high income disparity? I don't think you've been around for a long time.
Besides, this doesn't disprove the fact that things get worse as we go by. Prices of goods and services were still more expensive during the Yar Adua regime than they were during Obj period and the last time I checked, there's has no time Nigerians have not complained about how our governments have been and how bad things were. It only got worse now, and rapidly so.
As long as we continue to do things the same way, the next government will be worse than this. It's not a curse.

If it's true that you witnessed 3 military regimes before the return to democracy in 1999, you should known that no successive government has been better than the former in this country.
You think Tinubu is bad? Wait for the next man.
One thing you people don't understand is that, you can't build a standing structure on quicksand. That's what we've been trying to do since 1966.
Business / Re: I Couldn't Keep The Money; I'm A Child Of God — Nigerian Who Returned $14,000 by DeOTR: 10:05am On Jul 03

I couldn’t keep the money; it’s not mine. I’m a child of God — Nigerian giveaway winner who refunded crypto trader speaks.

Earlier today, the story of a Nigerian known as Lucky, who returned $14,000 to a crypto trader who mistakenly sent him more than the intended amount, was trending. The crypto trader shared a video of himself making a video call to Lucky to appreciate him for his honesty.

Lucky, whose real name is Akinola Femi and a chemical engineering graduate of FUT Minna, has now come out to explain why he returned the money. Lucky disclosed that the crypto trader had sent him 100 Solana worth $14,000 instead of just 10 Solana worth $100. Upon the trader’s request to refund 90 Solana and keep just 10, Lucky immediately refunded the excess to Rafael Avey, the crypto trader.

Lucky explained that because he is a child of God and knew the money didn't belong to him, he couldn't keep it. This act of honesty has garnered him widespread praise.

Revealing his Twitter handle, Lucky appreciated his pastor for teaching him honesty. He expressed happiness about his actions and wanted to show the world that there are still good and honest Nigerians out there.


What do you think about Lucky? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Major issues we have in this country is that people appointed to perform some duties are not independent of the forces of corruption.
EFCC and ICPC should not be reporting to anyone. Not, the president, not the the attorney general, nobody.
I only blame people who thinks someone somewhere is more capable of turning situations around in Nigeria. If we don't retrace our steps and go back in time to when we got things right, every successive government would be than the former, regardless of who's the president.
Nigeria was doing better than more than 70% of the countries of the at independence, including all the Asians Tigers. How many years along the line and we're 500years behind?
I personally think the 1966 coup was a grave mistake and we should take things back to how they were before that point in time.

One of our problem is we have too much farmers
So how come we have lesser food output if this is true?
I would have agreed with you if you said we have too many people doing too little.
That's because the majority of farmers are poor people. The people who have the money are investing in less productive ventures.

Netherland made €50 billion on agricultural export last year alone. I bet we'll doing fine if agriculture is the only thing we're doing and make up to that.
The fact is, most of us don't like agriculture. Food used to be the least of our problems, it's unfortunate how things have turned out to be.

Write it down

Why can they do this and our farmers can't write it down

Then the truth would be clear
It's time we realized we need more people that can go into farming than we have now.
We spend and invest our money on somethings that are not so important.
If a Nigerian has some change now, what he or she would think of investing on won't be beyond building hotels, setting up restaurant or bars. Most farmers don't have enough capital necessary for large scale farming. That's why we depend heavily on imported food.
Most people see farming as dirty jobs, but interestingly you don't even have to be in the farm to be a farmer.

Everything is not government. Before we have modern democracy, we've been existing. No one ever accuse our traditional rulers of starving them. It's understandable in time of famine when yields are bad. This is not the situation, but everyone is singing things are expensive but no one ever imagined who will do the farming if they don't.
Government don't own farms or sell foodstuffs, and I'm damn sure if the government gives everyone funds to farm, majority of those shouting of hunger will divert it for something else.
