Bro, let me tell you what I witnessed in the UAE. A Nigerian colleague never missed Zuhr and Asr at the mosque. After just one week, our boss pulled him aside:
“Taofeek, take it easy. If everyone leaves for prayers at the same time, who will run the company?”
That day, it clicked for me.
The forehead mark (zabiba) many African Muslims have is often linked to years of frequent prostration, especially on rougher surfaces. In the UAE, many people pray on soft carpets and you rarely see anyone making a big display of their religiosity.
They don’t wear religion on their foreheads the way we often do back home. Different environment, different priorities.
remi tinubu said the solution to expensive flights is a coastal road.
please, can someone explain to me like i’m 5 the connection between coastal roads and flights? cause idg how it makes flight tickets any cheaper….family of føøls.
Gas finished last night and the kids were craving shawarma, I was too. Hubby said to go out to get it for all of us with drinks for dinner, I punched my calculator to see how much it will cost for a family of 5.
I arrived at over 35k. 12kg gas now cost 24k, we would use it 4weeks at least. I chose gas over shawarma.
That is for a family where both partners work and earn decently. We couldn't even afford a basic treat without punching the calculator. Everything extra is now considered luxury
Now imagine the life of a child whose both parents are skilless, unemployed or earns meagerly.
I know many of you will come and ask if shawarma is food, no it's not but everyone deserves a treat once in a while.
We all know what we are doing but you people should fear Allah.
Nigeria's minimum wage is ₦70,000 a MONTH.
The UK's minimum wage is £12.71 an HOUR.
A British worker on minimum wage earns about £2,200 a month working full-time. That's roughly ₦4.7 million at current exchange rates. Meanwhile, a Nigerian worker earns ₦70,000 for the entire month.
What's even more insulting is that some groceries are cheaper in the UK than in Nigeria. Milk, apples, potatoes and other basics often cost less there despite their workers earning hundreds of times more.
We earn like ants and spend like elephants.
The cruelty isn't just the poverty. It's that our leaders watch millions struggle to survive and act as if this is normal. Remi Tinubu thinks her husband is doing us a favour by building “coastal road” because “flight is expensive”
I hate it here.
400 hostages were released in Ngoshe after the military delivered ransom to the terrorists. All the released hostages are Muslims. The Christians are still in captivity. This is according to eyewitness report.
The question : why are the Christians not released?

But when it’s time to campaign:
“My people… I feel your pain.” 🙂
If you like use your head this coming election or they use it for you as usual 🫵.
You people can never out rightly call out the Quran or criticize Islam cos yall are cowards and hypocrites.
You’d rather dump in Christianity in there than call out the ACTUAL demons
Nigeria accounts for ~90% of MTN's operating profits despite being 33% of its total subscribers.
It's obvious that MTN is fleecing Nigerians to subsidize the rest of their Africa operations. This is where the govt has to step in, but they won't.
Oyo State women are out again campaigning for APC over a pack of Semovita.
Your children remain in captivity, but instead of demanding their safe return and holding leaders accountable, you're selling your votes for a meal that won't last a week.
how are you, as a nigerian, participating in a giveaway by terrorists funded by money they got from your fellow nigerians??? people fcking d!ed. what’s wrong with all of you? no, what’s this madness???
So ANIDS under Peter Obi in Anambra state actually gave northerners student grants which they didn't have to pay back?
If you’re northerner who lived in Anambra under Peter Obi, & you sit & watch people running propaganda against Peter Obi without clearing the air, it shall never be well with you! 🙏
If you’re a northerner running the propaganda for political reasons, it shall also not be well with you. 🙏🏻
Mr. Joash Amupitan,
I wish to bring to your attention that the INEC voter registration portal and process are not working nationwide. This widespread failure constitutes a grave injustice and criminal act against the Nigerian people.
