creolehunt: Absolutely spot on. Look at the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway — one of the busiest highways in Nigeria. It was first commissioned by Obasanjo in 1978. Since then, every other president has practically “recommissioned” it. -Obj again as a civilian president initiated repairs in the early 2000s. - Jonathan flagged off a major reconstruction in 2013. - Buhari finally commissioned it in 2023, 45 years after it was first built. - Now, in 2025, President Tinubu That’s one road — built, rebuilt, flagged off, and re-flagged for nearly five decades. So yes, you’re right. At this rate, in 100 years, our children may still be attending “commissioning ceremonies” for the same roads we’re driving on today. A complete joke. 2 Likes |

masseratti: Their state house of assembly wrote the law. If it brings sanity to their land. So be it |

masseratti: Understandable but in the case of Enugu State, there are existing laws that specifically address kidnapping. According to the state’s legislation: - Kidnapping with a firearm is a capital offense. - Kidnapping without a firearm carries a 10-year prison sentence. - Landlords are held liable for any criminal activity that occurs on their property whether they were aware of it or not. - The law also mandates forfeiture and demolition of any property used in the commission of kidnapping. These laws were ed by the Enugu State House of Assembly, not arbitrarily enforced by the governor. So, in this case, the government is acting within the legal framework already in place. |

Samueltemi337: That’s true in some cases, but there are plenty of examples where the sons have matched or even sured their fathers. Erling Haaland did it, , Schmeichel did it, Paolo Maldini . . . Being a footballer’s son doesn’t guarantee success, but it doesn’t limit it either. Talent, work ethic, and mindset matter more than bloodlines. If he’s good enough, he’s good enough—name or no name. 14 Likes 3 Shares |

DeLaRue: While it’s true that the constitution presumes innocence until proven guilty, the reality on the ground tells a different story. The same constitution allows ordinary Nigerians to be thrown into jail within 10 days over mere allegations—many without trial for months or years. Yet, high-profile politicians accused of stealing billions walk free for years, shielded by endless court delays, injunctions, or outright withdrawal of cases. Take Peter Odili for example—since 2007, he’s been protected by a perpetual injunction stopping the EFCC from even investigating him. Saminu Turaki was charged with laundering billions in 2007, but his case is still unresolved almost 20 years later. Orji Kalu’s conviction was overturned on a technicality and he’s yet to be retried. Ladoja’s case has dragged on since 2008 with no closure. Danjuma Goje’s corruption case was withdrawn by the Attorney General. It is not just about the law, but a lack of political will and deep-rooted judicial corruption. If ordinary citizens are denied such leniency, then justice in Nigeria is clearly not blind—it’s selective. |

richeeyo: Tony Tetuiila never planned to be a musician until he watched Remedies perform in Ilorin’s. Unilorin and KwaraPoly held concerts back to back then. L.T 1 on P.S hosted some of the biggest artistes in Nigeria at different times. We watched the likes of Tribesmen, Maintain Okey Bakassy, ArtQuake, DJ Shina perform at on stage. We watched Tuface, basketmouth perform at newly built stellar Obasanjo at Tanke. Students used to look forward to Engineering Week. I can we brought Jimmy Jatt to P.S back to back. Kwara Poly used to bring the biggest Fuji artiste to town. It always ended with frat fights and so called counting scores… Good old days… |

MasterTeeUSA: The way I see it, Trump’s immigration policies primarily target documented migrants—people who entered the U.S. legally through official programs or valid visas (student, work, tourist, etc.) and either overstayed or are transitioning between statuses. These are the individuals caught in the crossfire of stricter rules and policy changes. Meanwhile, undocumented migrants—many of whom, like thousands of Mexicans, Venezuelas cross the border illegally—continue to enter the country without being tracked. These individuals are essentially invisible to the system until they get into legal trouble. Ironically, Trump’s policies don’t even address this group effectively; instead, they create more roadblocks for those trying to follow the legal path. 1 Like 1 Share |

Ihenzy: You can start from you-tube. It is not as straightforward as it might seem though. The export business in Nigeria is largely driven by foreigners and foreign companies, with just a few local guys operating on the crumbs. Many of these companies establish their presence here, dominate the market, export the produce, and repatriate the earnings to their home countries. Once you get into the industry—especially if you aim to scale big—you’ll quickly see as e dey go. It’s a challenging space to navigate, but with persistence, it’s very possible to carve out yours.

Coldspice: Bukola Saraki used same style. He was shuffling the govt house and his Dad’s house in his 8 year tenure and didn’t own a house to his name in the state. They made so much noise about. Little did the local indigenes know he was buying up ikoyi high rises and Maitama properties. He became the Senate President without a “house” 😂 4 Likes 1 Share |
