I keep telling people that a lot of you still don’t understand what “big club” actually means. Success comes and goes, trophies come and go, but size is something completely different.
When Manchester United start winning the league again, that’s when you’ll truly see what global support, attention and noise look like. The whole football world will be forced to pay attention. The motion will be on a different level entirely.
Some clubs are successful, some clubs are great, but very few are genuinely massive. That’s why even after years without a league title, Manchester United still dominates conversations everywhere.
No disrespect, but even Real Madrid no big reach Manchester United when it comes to global attention and moving the football world. When United rise again, una go finally understand the difference between successful and BIG. 😂
Madam, statistically speaking, you are more likely to be safer in Kano than in Owerri.
You may not like your NYSC posting, and that’s perfectly fine. But personal preference should not be confused with objective reality.
The facts are quite clear. Kano has consistently ranked among Nigeria’s safest states in multiple security assessments. In February 2026, StatiSense reported Kano as the safest state in Nigeria, sharing the top position with Ekiti and Bayelsa. SBM Intelligence’s 2026 security assessment also placed Kano among the country’s safest states.
Even when looking at data from 2022 to date from @StatiSense, Kano routinely appears among the top-performing states on safety indicators.
Perhaps the bigger issue here is not where NYSC posted you, but how little some people know about the places they are posted to.
Kano is not a backwater to be feared. It is one of Africa’s oldest commercial centres, a city that has welcomed traders, scholars, migrants, and visitors for centuries. Millions of Nigerians from every ethnic and religious background live, work, study, and prosper there.
Dislike the posting if you must. Request redeployment if you wish. But ignorance is not a substitute for knowledge, and stereotypes are not evidence.
Houses in Abuja are so darn expensive gaskiya dai this country is not normal. Minimum wage saved for a whole year cannot even get you a slice of house over here
Whenever a civil servant I know retires, I can’t help but pity them, especially those who served in state or local government.
After dedicating over thirty years of service, they often have nothing substantial to show for it and end up spending years pleading for their pensions
