It’s more of an embarrassment to the Lagos State Government. Based on what the HiTech boss said, One thing is certain, that coastal road axis will not see the end of flooding anytime soon. Residents in that axis have sacrificed their previously dry non-flooded environment for a new shiny highway. Win-Win

We are getting embarrassed right now as a people on @tvcnewsng. over a million metric tons of refuse has been removed by HiTech and @followlasg. You know what? people persisted by dumping more refuse. The MD of HiTech is hitting us below the belt. He said we are an

Residents run for their life in Lagos. Heavy rain caused a window to give way in Lagos,the house got completely flooded, and residents had to evacuate immediately. Other areas in the video were also underwater. With places like Community 18, Toyota Roundabout already dealing with gutters overflowing, this shows how widespread it was.

Ok. I'll be that girl who corrects you, because you all already hate me for speaking the truth anyways.... Most women actually desperately WANT to be that last lady holding the flowers. You've found a man who has game, experience and she's the LAST in that line, there's no one behind her. So he is loyal. You're just trying to get back at men for doing the reverse of this because you're ashamed of your body count but the reality is that the same rules don't apply for men and women. Sis to sis: stop lying to yourself.

Cape Verde progresses to Round of 32 without winning a single game. They also lost none. Such is life. If you can’t win, don’t lose.

the way life continues after someone dies is one of the most humbling and frightening realities.

“CHILD SUPPORT - $800” 52 quarters. $41,600 total. I did the math at 2am and couldn’t breathe. Called him. “Why didn’t you fight for me?” He said “I did. Every month. With my paycheck.” Said “Courts don’t let you buy time, son. Only groceries.” That week I saw the rent. The light bill. Saw shoes I outgrew in 3 months. Saw Mom working double shifts. $800 wasn’t disappearing. It was becoming me. He never missed a payment. Missed every birthday. Every game. Because the court gave him visitation. But not a key to our house. Child support isn’t an allowance. It’s rent for the childhood you can’t be there for. It’s apology money. It’s “I’m sorry” with 4 zeros. Dad, if you’re reading this: I see it now. The checks weren’t to Mom. They were to the kid you couldn’t raise.

This is actually a brilliant observation that deserves a proper answer. You are not wrong about what you are seeing. But what you are describing is exactly how languages disappear without anyone noticing. Adamawa alone has over 40 documented languages. Bura, Vere, Chamba, Gaanda, Lala, Bacchama, Bata, Marghi and more and no they are not variations as you pointed out. But most of them are slowly being swallowed by Hausa and Fulani because those are the languages of trade, mobility and survival. So yes, your Borno security guard speaks Shuwa Arabic and your Sokoto okada man speaks Hausa and they understand each other perfectly. That does not mean only one language exists. It means one language won the economic argument. This is what linguists call language assimilation. The dominant language does not erase the others overnight. It just makes them less useful for daily survival until the younger generation stops learning them entirely. Now here are the facts. Ethnologue, which is the world's most authoritative database on languages, currently documents 520 living indigenous languages in Nigeria alone. Not dialects. Languages. Nigeria has also already lost 12 indigenous languages or more to extinction. Gone forever. The Middle Belt is where this becomes undeniable. Plateau State alone has over 50 distinct languages. Keyword "Dinstinct". Benue has Tiv, Idoma, Igede and more. Taraba has communities that cannot understand their neighbours two villages away without a translator. Your Yoruba example actually proves the point perfectly. The fact that a Yoruba person can move across the Southwest and be understood is evidence of one dominant language absorbing regional variations over centuries. That process happened. It is still happening everywhere else in Nigeria right now. Now I am willing to bet you have never heard of Hyam, Ngas, Mwaghavul, Berom, Amo, Buji, Sura, Anaguta, or Irigwe from Plateau State. Or Kilba, Huba, Bura-Pabir, and Chibok from Borno. Or Mumuye, Jenjo, Yukuben, and Wurkum from Taraba. Or Tur, Nyandang, Kugama and Taram further into the riverine communities nobody talks about. Or what about Igala, Ebira, Bassange, Bassa-Nge, Kakanda and Oworo from Kogi alone. I have not even touched Rivers, Cross River, Bayelsa, Edo, Ondo, or Nasarawa yet. You want to know exactly where each of these is spoken? You will have to tour Nigeria for that. And I promise you, this country will humble you in ways no map ever could. The 500 languages are not cap. Most of them are just quietly dying (Bura has an estimated 11,000 speakers with most young Bura people now not able to speak the language) while we debate whether they exist. And that is the real conversation Nigeria should be having.

I don’t believe we speak up to 500 languages in Nigeria. Different dialects ?, yes. But over 500 languages is total cap. All the South western states speak Yoruba, diffferent variations ,yh but I doubt there’s no where a Yoruba person will go in southwest and not be able to

They didn’t fail. They weren’t expelled. They didn’t drop out. They are medical students in Federal University of Health Sciences Otukpo and they’ve been trapped in the same level for 2–3 years. While their mates in other schools have graduated and are already in hospitals saving lives. This isn’t just delay. It’s time stolen. Parents are aging. Money is running out. Dreams are quietly breaking. And the worst part? Nigeria needs doctors more than ever. Yet students ready to become doctors are being held back because accreditation is still not in place by Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria. This is not fair. This is not normal. This is not acceptable. If this shows up on your timeline, don’t scroll past it. Repost it. Because somewhere in Otukpo, future doctors are watching their lives stand still.

Not seen any APC handle posting that Tinubu’s yesterday’s speech about sandwich and one egg a day. Finally feeling shame??🤣🤣

Everything just cost, cinema date now you go dey spend reach 50k, if I carry babe go watch movie I go make sure say she pay attention to every single detail because I go ask you questions after

Structure your life well so that you can live life easily. Get stocks, do fixed/term deposits, get lands etc. When those monies come, it’s not to flex woman or eat food. It’s for growing wealth. Plan yourself well. You will see that life is easy for you later.

You people will come on this app and confidently mislead people on something you have zero knowledge about. Buying Dangote Refinery shares with a 150k salary will not take anyone out of the trenches. NGX is not a meme coin. Dangote Refinery is currently preparing for its IPO with an estimated valuation of *$40 Billion to $50 Billion**. In Naira, that is over 60 TRILLION Naira. You are telling a guy who earns 150k a month to use 7k to buy a microscopic fraction of a 60 Trillion Naira asset and expect it to magically pay his house rent in a few years? If you earn between 100k and 250k, and you aggressively scrape 20k monthly to buy shares, you would have invested 240k by December. Even if the refinery does a miraculous 20% return, your profit for tying down your hard-earned survival money for 365 days is just 48k. That cannot even buy a half bag of rice today. Inflation will swallow that profit before the dividend is even paid. Let's even scale it up. Let's say you manage to invest a whole 1 Million Naira. A very solid 20% return gives you 200k profit in an ENTIRE YEAR. Is 200k after 12 months changing your life? No. Dangote Refinery stock are for WEALTH PRESERVATION, not poverty eradication. It is for the person sitting on 50m who wants to park heavy liquidity, hedge against inflation. It is NOT for Emeka who's eating from hand to mouth in this economy. If your income is small, take that 7k and use it to eat. 7k is not magically paying your house rent in 2030 because you bought dangote refinery stock.

Make I no talk.... I don't want to say a hard-core truth that will shatter a lot of people. Especially Salary earners. Even if I don't say it, they are already feeling the heat. One advice I will give to all salary earners, is that they should take serious advantage of Dangote

The fact that you all paint a 35years old man as okay and ideal for marriage and a 30 years old woman as too old perplexes me.

Everything women demand from a man costs money. -Provision costs money. -Protection costs money. -Leadership costs money. -Performance costs money. Everything men ask from a woman costs nothing. -Respect. -Peace. -Loyalty. -Softness. And somehow, what costs nothing is still called "too much" BY MODERN FEMINISTS. 🥺
