“My sister and I once went to a restaurant in Ikoyi, Lagos. When we asked for the bill, the waiter told us that some gentlemen had already paid for our meal. We looked at them, nodded and say thank you. We stayed a few more minutes to take pictures, but about 10 minutes later, the waiter returned and said the men wanted us to pay the bill ourselves since we didn’t come over to their table. Men can be funny. They try to weaponize their provision. We’re not even broke.”

@tmospeaks@MariamLonge What @BeeceeUgboh said is correct. Snakes sometimes hide inside the holes in blocks when you're building. Later, they come out & live in the ceiling. & may come into the house. There's need for environmental assessments for this. #yourviewtvc@TVCconnect
@MariamLonge If gun ownership is a problem in countries with the forensic capacity to track guns, imagine what it’ll be in Nigeria. It’s not guns we need. It’s policing. I think this is just anothr case of shifting responsibility from govt to the citizens #yourviewtvc@TVCconnect
@MariamLonge A new body sounds reasonable - but that’s not how it’s done. Imagine the cost of creating a new agency from scratch. Let them monetize it. I mean, private people who've currently have police protection pay heavily for it (yes, money: that's why past "directives" ...
@MariamLonge What needs to happen? 2 thngs: Improve tracking capacity, get overwhelming air power. If you kidnap 30 students in China, S Arabia or Brazil, (not mentioning USA or UK o) you'd have helis & drones in the air within the hour. Let's get SERIOUS #yourviewtvc@TVCconnect
The decline in vulture populations in Nigeria is due to multiple threats; from habitat loss to poisoning and harmful traditional practices.
These threats are wiping out nature’s clean-up crew, leaving our environment and health at risk.
It’s crucial that we work together, support conservation efforts, and safeguard their future, because protecting vultures means protecting our ecosystems too.

@Chine_Egeonu I said the man should leave with his children. I said it’s easier to move on to another woman when you don’t have to carry along 7 children.

Social media has been turned to an urban jungle, where savagery and toxicity are the opium of many.
As unpopular as this might sound, I am in support of having some regulations on social media.
We need to have a measure of sanity!

@MariamLonge Good that Dr Ilori is trying to keep hope for them HIV patients. But she didn’t really say anything (e.g., FG will step in if…) Anyway, Mr Trump has suspended the suspension of PEPFAR. So the threat is over. For now. #yourviewtvc@TVCconnect
