This fish was the second to the last thing I bought at the market today, before heading home.
On getting to the house, this is what I saw💔.
This fish wasn't like this when the lady finished cútting it and packaged it into the nylon.
What is really going on?🤔
This kounty! Hey! God help us 🤲🤲...
What could really cause this? Could it be the fish was chemicalized or what???
Please let's be careful of what we eats and buy with our money.
Have you experience this? Please let me know if is a normal thing or I should just trash it because omo, I'm traum@tizéd.
Please I need you guys experience if there is any, is urgent please 🤲.

Bandits were even begging for food from their victims families during that cashless era. They were accepting anything that comes their way because there was no enough cash to go about their daily life.
That era remains the biggest nightmare for bandits and that remains the best first step to smoking them out.
Those saying the cashless was introduced to stop Tinubu, now that Tinubu is the president, he can reintroduce it the way he likes (with all the amendments) but we definitely need it to urgently stop this menace and get rid of these stup*d animals.
Airtel, Airtime Borrowing and How One Early Move Shifted the Whole Conversation
Sometimes in business, it is not the loudest player that changes the story… it is the first one that moves when everyone else is waiting.
That is exactly what happened in the airtime lending space.
For many Nigerians, airtime borrowing is not a big policy issue.
It is simple life:
You run out of airtime or data… you borrow small… you continue your day.
No stress, no grammar.
Then the disagreement between regulators and operators came in.
The DEON Regulations (Digital, Electronic, Online or Non-Traditional Consumer Lending Rules) became part of the conversation.
Some saw airtime lending as “consumer credit.”
Telecom operators said, “no, this is telecom service, not bank loan.”
Everything slowed down.
During that uncertainty, services were suspended across networks.
And for everyday users, it meant one thing:
“Network no gree give advance again.”
People felt it in small but important ways, calls, data, daily business.
Then something interesting happened.
Airtel moved first.
After the regulatory suspension of enforcement, Airtel restored airtime and data advance services to its subscribers.
No big announcement drama, just quiet restoration.
But the effect was loud in real life.
Because once Airtel moved, the market shifted.
People who depend on those small advances started noticing:
“Ah, I fit borrow again on Airtel.”
That simple step changed user expectations across the sector.
Shortly after, @GloWorld followed with restoration.
So gradually, the system started coming back online.
Not because the debate ended—but because some clarity had returned.
@MTNNG, the largest operator, however, took a more cautious route.
The company said it is still waiting for stronger legal clarity before resuming its own XtraTime service.
In simple terms:
“We no want enter trouble—make the matter clear first.”
And that is where Airtel’s early move becomes important in the industry story.
Because in moments of uncertainty, whoever restores service first doesn’t just serve customers… they also shape how fast normalcy returns.
ALTON and industry stakeholders have argued that airtime lending is not luxury spending.
It is part of everyday economic movement for many Nigerians:
✔️ traders ✔️ riders ✔️ artisans ✔️ small business owners ✔️ students
Small credit, big timing.
So when Airtel restored service, it wasn’t just competition—it became a signal.
A signal that maybe the system is stable enough to function again.
And others followed that direction in different ways.
FCCPC, for its part, maintains that it acted within its mandate on consumer protection and still intends to pursue its legal position in court.
The DEON matter is not finished. It is still in the legal system.
And now everyone is looking ahead to July 20, 2026, when the substantive case is expected to come before the court for judgment.
That decision may finally give clearer direction on how these services should be regulated going forward.
But beyond all the legal and regulatory language, one simple truth stands out:
When @AirtelNigeria restored airtime and data borrowing, it didn’t end the debate but it helped people breathe a little easier.
And in this kind of story, small actions sometimes carry the biggest weight.

My cousin got marred 3rd week of May.
Before then I told her to get her husband to;
sub their Netflix.
Load their prepaid meter.
Stock up their kitchen [foodstuffs and all]
Pay for their rent 2 years in advance...
She agreed. Guess what?
She didn’t. She came to me to ask for money for food.
Shi shí she will not see.
Still on Ogbomoso Kidnap Incident. Whoever leaked that classified information in the middle of investigation and rescue effort is a terrorist apologist.
Not every security info is meant for social media. Zero Opsec jeopardize Ops
Again, arrest whoever leaked that info
I was born with sickle cell disease.
I had Crisis after crisis, constant pain, multiple organ damage by age 28. Doctors said I wouldn’t see 35.
During one brutal episode, I prayed like never before while hooked up to morphine. The pain vanished overnight.
Follow up tests showed my hemoglobin was normal. No sickle cells. Geneticists ran every test, markers for the disease had disappeared. I haven’t had a crisis in 4 years.
My hematologist calls me the walking miracle file.
You have to believe that there is God.
When Deborah was killed, none of your said northerners said a word. @atiku who initially did, took down the tweet. You cannot gaslight the South, never!!

Like I said earlier, this incident is not the regular bandit-based kidnapping. It is clearly an insider job and it is largely political. The timing, the victims and the location say it all.
The raw truth is that politicians are hell-bent on destroying this country and they have used Oyo State as a case study. We will not allow you to spoil our city, because Ibadan and Oyo are very dear to me.
It’s better for Makinde to sit right. These events can’t be accidental. It’s a pattern, and the patterns aren’t looking good.
May the Almighty restore peace and tranquility to our country.
This guy was going to neighborhoods to make people aware of the insecurity in the country and why they need to come out and vote.
I heard he was kidnapped.
His name is Livinus Nwosu.
It was said that he was kidnapped by an armed unknown men.
Imagine they could find him to kidnap him but they couldn’t find the kidnappers in Oyo State.
You’re a wicked person, if you’re supporting APC.
