This can never happen in Nigeria. Imagine a whole CBN governor going back to her parent house just because of price of apartment in the city.

She even said "we"... meaning her husband sef join

I dunno why some people think this is a witch hunt. They're the same people who ridicule Lagos' mega city status because of seasonal flooding.

This demolition dey touch everybody regardless of where the landlord's belong to geopolitically.

I can’t speak for Nigeria o but it is sure working for Mogadishu, Somalia.

Debt don’t stop nobody from moving.

Somalians have a tight knit community in Yankee. You can't say the same for Nigerians

LOL, they are over 100 billion planets in a galaxy and there are billions of galaxies in the universe.

On what basis are you measuring the intelligence of humans if you haven't explored Billions of planets that makes up a galaxy talk more of billions of galaxies?

We're intelligent whether you deny it or not. We solve complex problems. You can say the possibility of more intelligent beings somewhere in our galaxy or any of the billions of galaxies in the universe is very high but just the fact that we know this now validates our intelligence. Humans have only been around in what...20,000 years and see where we are today exploring the Cosmos and doing DNA editing, etc Baring extinction, in the next 100,000 years, how advanced do you think we'd become?
Also there are over 100 billion stars in the Milky way galaxy not 100 billion planets. We can only assume how many planets there are.

Someone said the brain drain of today will be the brain gain of tomorrow.

Dumbest thing I've ever heard.

80% of people wey dey Japa will be trapped in the system they are japaing to from debt. Even citizens of those countries are trapped in it too. This man's story get as e be so I won't comment directly on it.

Few weeks ago I had some pains on my both toes after wearing shoes. I thought the pains was because the shoes were tight. But this morning I decided to cut my toe nails clean with blade. In the process of cutting it, a brownish liquid started rushing out from it. I noticed the nail was completely empty inside and almost rotten. Please help what medication can I take, and what is the cause of it?
First puc is the left toe
2nd pic is the right toe. It isn't that painful as of now

I've lost both toenails completely too before.
Buy any cod live oil product. Another nail will grow there very quickly

And what happens after that? What next?

The point is, you guys attach so much importance to your existence. The universe and earth does not need you to function. We are just tiny part of the ecosystem with different made up ideas of God attached to our religion beliefs.

Enjoy your short time, worry less about what's going to happen in the next 100 years for you won't be here, the universe can cleanse humanity in 1mins if it wants and there is absolutely nothing anyone can do about it.

We are an intelligent species and if we're lucky, are not wiped out will colonize other worlds. It is inevitable. Just a mere 300 years ago, the level of technology we have today will be deemed magic. Don't underestimate us. Yes the singular human existence is short but that doesn't mean we cannot think for those yet unborn

I wished it strip off the earth atmosphere

Just drink sniper bro. Leave the rest of us out of your misery

Exactly my point. The Dinosaurs where here 2.4million years ago, today the world is still here and it will be here in the next 2.4million years.

There have been several mass global extinction events. The only thing that would end the earth would be when the sun swells and figuratively eats the earth

Fryx:


It’s actually a dangerous stuff it it faces the earth directly.

I heard it can cause some ice to melt resulting in flooding. But to what extent the ice can melt I don’t know.

I doubted it will be as extreme as painted though. It will simply increase earth temperature for a few minutes or hours, which will result in some ice melting at the surface. And possibly some sliding (ice) so the danger of flooding isn’t that much. Moreover, the Icy lands should be able to contain their water.

The danger lies in the dangerous radiation that will accompany it. However, we’ve always been at the mercy of dangerous radiation from the sun, and a major flare shouldn’t result in an apocalyptic effect.

Overall, I don’t think it is as dangerous as it was painted.

If there was a Lunar or Martian base already, they'd be fuuuucked. No magnetic field or atmosphere would mean bombardment of radiation

Jakumo:
A few years back I accompanied a German national, a Peruvian, and their spouses to a restaurant we frequented in a medium-sized town in the western part of the country. The Peruvian was an executive from a roofing tile company that was looking for rural land to site a new factory, while the German who brought him to my rural area was a hunting buddy of mine going back many years. Seated at an outdoor restaurant table while downing pepper soup and beer, none of us realized that kidnappers were relaxing at another table in the very same restaurant, casually observing our party of guests while hidden in plain sight.

We parted ways as the evening sun's shadows grew longer, with the guests driving off aboard their brand-new SUV, and me heading back to my village in a battered old car that housed a highly tuned 5-liter V8 engine capable of generating rivers of torque and blistering acceleration G-forces despite the outwardly dilapidated appearance of my trusty chariot. The drive home was uneventful but then came a phone call from the German's line the following morning.

The phone call that was placed from my German hunting friend's handset came in at mid-morning the following day, and the speaker who was obviously of Igbo descent, informed me that he was a kidnapper by profession and that my German friend was in the custody of his gang. Presuming that the impostor speaking with the expatriate's phone had simply stolen or found the handset, I made a few hasty calls but then quickly found out that indeed my friend had been kidnapped on the drive away from that restaurant where we had shared a meal the day previous.

Thus began a week of unmitigated hell during which the two foreign nationals, whose spouses were left behind with their driver and the flashy SUV car at the point of the abduction, suffered starvation and relentless beatings all perpetrated to focus the minds of the German and Peruvian embassies in Nigeria, at the risk of killing the captors either by starvation or merciless beatings, until a ransom was paid to buy life and freedom for the starvation weakened captives.

It was only after the German's death a year or so following his harrowing kidnap ordeal, that I got to hear about the horrific experience he suffered while slowly starving to death in a jungle hut under armed guards who were forbidden from speaking to the captors or giving them anything besides water. This incident was a close shave for me as I had shared a leisurely restaurant lunch of pepper soup and beer with those kidnap victims less than fifteen minutes before they were forced to a stop in their vehicle and then spirited away via a battered old taxi into the kidnappers' jungle detention facility located alongside the Lagos Expressway, where unmitigated primal terror was visited upon the starving captives for two long weeks.

For say dem kidnap you join, na you dem for beat pass. How much ransom was paid?
You must have been the prime suspect

Nemesis0147:
Wait oh
You mother still bailed you out from the police station?

Nawa oh
So what’s now the difference between the police officers and the kidnappers

My guy, I use my leg waka enter there. They still dey form hero on top my case

symbianDON:
LagosG sorry about your ordeal! I can't imagine the trauma you experienced

Bro... trauma like that never really leaves you. I can't imagine the level for those who get abducted deep in to the jungle and witness other humans getting slaughtered.

Smh.
He further maintained that the recent brain drain in the country will eventually turn out to be its brain gain in the future.

Too much grammar. If you have a plan, start implementing it. Simple!

I don't understand the current state inertia in policy conceptualization and implementation. No sense of urgency.
Sad.

But you said you don't want Agbado. Why are you being hypocritical?

My future crazy wifey.

I need someone to answer me this; What are the benefits of releasing NK who consistently called for violence and national unrest?

You actually posted this on Nairaland. I laughed hard at this.

In the year 3023, there will be over 200 countries in Africa.

I guess those in Nigeria struggling through the daily grind for the basics of life, are praising Nigeria?

No Nigerian has ever praised Nigeria or any sitting president since 1960. Rest abeg

People attack and curse Israel every single minute of the day. That man probably had a bad heart or some other health condition

Allow them to continue to wallow in madness. The Ayatollah of Iran has said worse and is still enjoying himself daily

Your little mind convinces you that Richard Ugbah is Igbo thus your creating this thread to give vent to your standardize bigotry!

You have proven that many from your side struggle with identifying where others come from, once the name isn't Hausa or Fulani, it is automatically "omo ibo".

Not everything is about you guys. He made valid points. Most Nigerians once they Japa condemn Nigeria entirely

SoNature:
When I got to where Mr Inugonum said that people vandalize transmission equipment they bought for billions, melt and used it to construct gates, I realised that ordinary Nigerians are the biggest threat to this country, not even the politicians!

This is what I've been saying. We love to blame politicians but absolve ourselves of any blame. Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria not the president

ghettochild:

When did this happen??
Sorry bout it experience

2021

Nigerians are very strong. Many of our average daily experiences would require serious therapy sessions in the abroad. I've never spoken about this to anyone. Only my family members know this. I'll make this very brief.


A couple of years ago when the Lagos State government banned the use of Okadas and Keke Maruwas, a lot of motorists used the opportunity to cash in by using their personal cars to convey people to offset their fuel bills. More prevalent were the use of private Toyota Siennas as modes of public transport.
On this Sunday, I didn't go to church. At about 10 am, I decided to use the ATM around Allen for the day's cash and also to withdraw the school fees of my little cousin for the new term. Normally, a bank to bank transfer would have sufficed but you know some of these Lagos schools, they prefer actual bank tellers from cash deposits because some of the bills go to different accounts such as PTA and some extracurricular activities. I withdrew a total of 120k with the intention of giving my sister 95k to go pay the school fees the next morning. I withdrew at the GTBank at Allen and crossed the road to get Keke back home. Normally, during the week, the kekes were off the road but being a Sunday and the enforcement officers were enjoying their weekend, so most kekes used the opportunity to hustle. I used one to get to the bank earlier. Soon as I crossed the road, a Sienna pulled up and since they were being used everywhere I didn't suspect a thing. There was a woman by the driver and two guys occupying the immediate two seats behind the driver forcing me to retreat to the back of the bus. They used the woman to bait me. We hadn't reached Oshopey Plaza when one of the guys flashed me a gun and told me to lie down in the space between the both other them. They searched me and took the cash and ATM. (I hadn't taken my phone with me since my house was just a 3 minute Keke ride to the ATM.) Then they knocked me out. I woke up alone in a room and realised it was night already. I began sweating profusely. I checked out the window but I couldn't see anything outside. The window was very dusty from the outside. I'm telling myself "LagosG, you're f******. You're dead!" After a bit, drowning in anxiety, someone came in. He wasn't part of the crew I saw earlier. He said "you don wake abi? You dey sleep o! I think say you don die. If na North dem go don bury you." The time was almost 1am. I was out for more than 12 hours. They took me out to the Sienna again. The house was abandoned and without fence. There was no way for me to know where I was even as Lagos wakawaka boy wey I be. I was going through wild disorientation. These bastards drove me to 4 different ATMs and had me withdraw another 150k which is my withdrawal limit. They didn't ask me to transfer. They were smart. I tried hard to see if I could recognise the area around the banks. but I couldn't because I was laying on the ground in the bus while thy were driving around as they told me to when I was first abducted. After the last withdrawal, I had less than 3k left in my aza. They broke my ATM and kept driving for what seemed like forever. I just kept thinking the worst. What would my family be going through? Yoruba people say a dead child is better than a lost one. This would tear my family apart. I figured we must be on an expressway because the speed was much and they barely used the brakes. After what seemed like forever, the bus began to slow down. The woman was no longer with them and they spoke in a different variation of Yoruba so I didn't understand anything they had been saying the whole time which fuelled my justified paranoia. I saw the the door slide open while the bus was in motion. The guy by the door stood up over me, dragged me and flung me out. It was dawn around past 5am. I saw bush left and right. I was bleeding from my lips, elbows and knees from the fall. I flagged down cars but nobody stopped. I kept walking for about 10 minutes then I saw what looked like women carrying firewood. I ran to them and asked them where I was. My people, they answered that I was at Sagamu!!! They directed me to the police station and said that's how these abductors usually drop people off at that same point. Apparently, the women usually go into the bush to harvest wood used for herbs early in the morning and had witnessed such before.
I walked al the way to the police station with a bloodied shirt and dusty shorts with slippers. Soon as I got to the counter and narrated my ordeal, the said the DPO wasn't there yet and the next thing these people did was lock me up with criminals to wait for the DPO. The ordeal at the station is another story for another day. Long story short, around 9am, after narrating to the DPO too, they called my mother and she had to drive down to Shagamu to literally bail me.

I know I didn't have it as bad as some other people but the anxiety I experienced after was so much. Whenever I saw a Sienna, my heart would skip. I still don't trust people who drive it till today.

There's no such thing as evening newspaper propaganda. Most men fantasize being with an older woman under 60
