i’m not even falling for the ‘a lot of effort went into this’ rationale because in capitalism, those who do the grueling work are usually the lowest paid.
Bruh, as of today, you’ll need 1,250,000 to purchase 100 bags of cement.
One million, two hundred and fifty thousand Nigerian Naira.
In 2023, before BAT became president, a bag of cement was 3,800.
This is not Reform!
Society does not shame badly behaved men enough.
Standing on the altar to tell us how your wife stayed while you cheated, left your matrimonial home for a hotel for months, how she always found women’s panties in your pocket, knew you were actively cheating but stayed and prayed for you,and the stupid church members clapping and shouting “Gloraayy.”
And the woman was just standing there😭😭
If the reverse were the case, she would have been stoned to death.
What is even more annoying is that, they don’t consider these daily charges as Tax.
Whenever they release the data of taxpayers, they exclude these people and make it seem as though not enough people pay taxes.
if you know anyone battling cancer, please tell them to register and enroll with the NHIA. NHIA now covers 100% of radiotherapy costs. share this information, it could help save a life.
God is so merciful in geographical distribution.
Imagine a government that can't repair Agbor-Benin road having to deal with the aftermath of an earthquake.
Performative respect is also how corrupt politicians get away with stealing your future… You see it happen at every high-profile event, wedding, or political gathering… A politician walks into the room (someone whose policies have actively ruined schools, hospitals, and livelihoods)... Instead of cold isolation, they are met with a sea of smiles, deep bows, and eager handshakes... We have been conditioned to prioritize the aesthetics of respect over the reality of our survival…
One of the most ridiculous things that religion propagates as sensible is the idea that merely believing in god is sufficient to make you a good person or grant you eternal life. We got a bunch of people who believe that spiritual performances are more important than how they actually treat people.
No one who genuinely interacts with the common man would want the status quo to continue. Wallahi, people are starving. The situation is terrible. People in critical condition are discharging themselves from hospitals because they can no longer afford treatment, only to go home and die.
We cannot continue like this. The cost of living crisis demands urgent and decisive action. Not arrogance and gaslighting.
Nigerians need to search their souls and explain why they hold their female artistes to ridiculously higher standards than male artistes.
You people ate and chuffed on “your body na meatpie” for almost a year to start complaining about the buzz a 2-week old song is garnering.
One of the funniest things i experienced practicing in Nigeria was when they brought a 'Masquerade' to the emergency room.
He had apparently been in a fight with another crazy human who beat him up and i could see blood seeping through the costume but the Masquerade enchanters who brought him insisted that i couldn't remove the costume or reveal his face because it was a taboo for 'Ordinary human' to see the gods face to face 😅.
But the gods are bleeding and saying help me doctor.
I had to refer.
there’s something i feel we need to discuss. why are school children coming home by 5pm. wetin dem dey learn?? most of them will leave home early, some by 6am and when they close by 3pm you’ll still do lesson for them. you’ll be seeing small small children exhausted coming back from school by 5 in the evening. the one wey be muslim go still go “ile kewu” again.
oya holiday season they’re supposed to be at home or go on holidays una go chook them for holiday lesson 😭 wtf is wrong with everyone
I asked the Iyaloja of Oregun market what they use the 2,000 PER DAY levy they collect from EVERY TRADER in Oregun to do;
She said I should go and ask Kabiyesi.
I said she should be able to provide me answers since she is the emissary.
Guess her response?
She will send boys to beat me up 😂😂😂.
Bunch of looting criminals
How can you collect AT LEAST 2,000 naira Everyday from over 200 shops and there is no significant improvement.
Every shop is consistently deteriorating, gutters are stinking because there is no drainage but you will send boys to beat me up after you delayed us for thirty minutes to collect your useless levy?
Children are the most unprotected class in Nigeria.
Only them will be malnourished, out of school, beaten, molested, trafficked, even murdered.
The last thing you should be worried about is how they greet you.
