Children of the VERY average Nigerian used to have birthday celebrations. The parents would rent canopies, cook and invite djs. There used to be parties and the entire neighborhood would gather to celebrate w the child. I don’t hear birthday music anymore. There’s nothing left
I believe this is too extreme, but how does an arms courier receive the death penalty, while terrorists who massacre innocent people daily are rehabilitated and reintegrated into society?
Make it make sense.
Omo! Do you people know how insane it is for terrorists to kidnap a retired general, kill him and then return his body in a handover ceremony where they took pictures knowing they'd leave unchallenged?
Do you people know what kind of trouble we are in?
Bandits went live and asked Nigerians to send azas for give aways.
They used banking apps to send money to those who sent accounts. No arrests made.
A responsible citizen made a video of the cracks on Coastal road and within days he was arrested.
If you ever come here to tell me only God can solve our insecurity problems Ogun will kpai you.
Tinubu's failure is so obvious that his people are not saying that he has not failed. They are saying that nobody can fix Nigeria and that everyone should give up on Nigeria.
Those guys are pathetic.
American: So there are terrorists causing problems in your country, right?
Nigerian: Yes.
American: That's terrible. Is the government at least doing something about it?
Nigerian: Well, our president addressed the issue.
American: Oh. What did he say?
Nigerian: He spoke about the law of lawf in the holy book
American: ...The law of love?
Nigerian: I guess
American: Okay. Did you send the military after them?
Nigerian: Hmm... at times.
American: What do you mean "at times"?
Nigerian: Sometimes we've heard the military went after them. In some cases, the terrorists ended up killing military personnel.
American: Wait. They killed your soldiers?
Nigerian: Yes.
American: Okay, so then your government retaliated and finished them off, right?
Nigerian: Mm... nah.
American: What do you mean "nah"?
Nigerian: Well, our president also gave an example from the Bible about the prodigal son on how we should accept them with love.
American: Hold on. The prodigal son?
Nigerian: Yes.
American: I'm confused. So you're telling me terrorists killed military personnel, and the response was a Bible lesson?
Nigerian: Something like that.
American: So you guys aren't doing anything?
Nigerian: No, no. We're doing something.
American: Okay. What are you doing?
Nigerian: We're rehabilitating the ones we catch.
American: You're... rehabilitating them?
Nigerian: Yes.
American: Not prosecuting them?
Nigerian: Not according to our president, no.
American: WTF WTF WTF
Nigerian: I never even tell you anything, you don dey cry
If David tell Una say all bad policies that are impoverishing Nigeria are from Washington or Paris some clowns go dey attack him…
We go learn the hard way. 💔🤷🏾♂️
20 something year olds are joining mouth to say the benefits of the macroeconomic policies won’t show now but in kinikan years. Forgetting that the almost 40 year olds said the same thing about a decade ago while watching their futures get eaten up.
I remember when Mike Brown was appointed head coach of Nigeria’s men’s national team ahead of the Tokyo Olympics.
He led the team through Olympic preparation and the Famous exhibition win over Team USA before Tokyo 2020
After the Olympics, Brown publicly said he wanted to continue with the program and help build Nigerian basketball long term.
But in 2022, Nigerian basketball was disrupted by governance disputes inside the Nigeria Basketball Federation and the Nigerian government temporarily withdrew national teams from international competition. That created uncertainty around the program and disrupted continuity.
Today, he is a NBA champion as the coach of the New York knicks
