I understand why people say Layi is not funny. This particular video doesn't contain overt comedy or any kind of direct gag.
It's simple, it's those events that happens to a person in life that you narrate to people and people laugh about.
First round NBA draft pick based on genetics alone.
I hear he is 6'7. He is funny and all but the economic return based on geographical difference is staggering.
My hot take is that if we had a better economy, Nigerians would be Smarter and physically taller or bigger.
I personally think our poor childhood nutrition is a national emergency.
The Akeredolus lived life like he wouldn't leave the office.
I will never forget that my Dad's prolonged sickness is directly tied to his wickedness. He didn't pay his pension and when he was sick the hospitals weren't working because he was owing health workers.
It's mundane and painfully narrative of everyday human experience.
The joke here is in the misfortune of D Law and how each misfortune flows from one to the other till the end.
Geography is such a strong factor, he'd make a lot of money as a skitmaker but I'd imagine he'd make at the very least 10x of that playing Basketball.

Pray for Christians in the North, this is their daily reality.
The constant fear that a misstep could be your last.
Infact, they need it much more at the moment.
Oddy despite being a Muslim always defended persecuted Christians with vigour.
Never waivered in the face of bodily threats from extremists.
That's how I remember him.
When my Dad became ill, Church members would drive him to his doctor's appointment and back.
They'd send food and money, they would even stay overnight if need be.
@Ssaasquatch
It doesn't appear to me that Mr X has completely weighed the outcome of this thought process, the result of which will take us far away from the intended goal.
We should circle back when Mr X is fully aware of this.
Unlike some, i have only one passport and have sworn no allegiance to any other state. Nigeria is all I have.
A war with a people who appear to be uniting around a common interest, seeking economic freedom and a departure from over bearing western influence will have very dire
This tweet is one reason why I have always said that Nigeria's competence silos is in Church. People look at what Churches accomplish and assume that competence can easily be transposed.
The videos I have seen from Ondo City, it's fire for fire o. People facing police with guns and firing. Like
@DavidHundeyin
said, we are finding out just how many guns are in circulation.
Let me put it in perspective, 1 Jersey Cow is producing 25 litres per day while the Nigerian counterpart is producing just above 1 litres per day.
That means 1 Jersey cow is at least 24 times more productive than their Nigerian counterpart.
The best part is that 6 of our Jersey cows are now delivering 150 litres of milk per day, compared to 50 litres from 40 indigenous cows. Tells me we will soon hit the 1,000 litre/day mark.
Jonathan removed himself from office. People rallied round him in 2011. They voted for one of their own with no shoe. People demonstrated for him to be made Acting President. He got into office and became arrogant. He watched people being killed and did nothing. Not even to
Thomas Muller is the perfect representation of German football. Efficient, workaholic and ruthless.
He knows the basics so well it's scary but he is not flashy so it's hard to notice he's been around for a while and has won almost everything.
I had this debate once and I asked those prescribing this law if it applied to men who have children outside of marriage without the Knowledge of their wife.
You need to see the gymnastics on display.
1. Criminalize adultery and paternity fraud with at least 3-5year term of imprisonment.
2. Make DNA test compulsory at birth and prescribe an affordable fee.
3. People that cohabit for at least 2years should be deemed married & if it leads to a child they’re deemed married.

Ever since I heard safe in 2008, I made a commitment to always buy your albums. I will not stop, i will even buy for friends and family. Stay Amazing King
The Joseph of Arimathea example has been used a lot and frankly it's very convincing but all it took is one curious scholar willing to check.
The real lesson was lost which is about reverence and willingness to give for the master's cause.
Here’s our checklist/wishlist of home items for y’all asking.
I’m so shy putting this out, but we privately did a list like this for our wedding, and God provided everything we needed.
So 👇🏼
There is a pattern of misinformation on the internet and this is a case study.
Someone makes a wild and obviously false claim like this.
He is asked for a source which when shared directly contradicts his/her claims.
The person then argues that people didn't read it well.
killing twins is not original to calabar people. they in fact WORSHIPPED a twin god, so twins were considered to be divine. YTs demonized their god and taught them to kill twins.
the local women revolted and fought back. mary slessor was simply another woman in the crowd.
Your Minister boyfriend can be toxic to you, worship leader fit be bad boyfriend. Enduring his wickedness is not teaching you long-suffering, you are actually suffering.
Wild, I know.
Regular Nigerians go to a new country and introduce the vibe to foreigners. I mean, my friend in Poland always ensures that whenever he is hanging out with his white friends, an Afrobeats song is the music of choice.
Ghanian Artiste & citizens in diaspora especially those in US & UK, what are you pple doing to promote your artiste. Skepta, Dave, Wale, Julie Adenuga, Tion Wayne, isreal adesanya, Anthony Joshua and Kamaru Usman all promote Nigerian songs with either ft ,shows or fight bout.
Any election where there is a large number of undecided voters according to polls.
They have already decided but don't feel comfortable sharing their choice.
Na election night you go begin see film
Jesus told Peter that he'd deny him and Peter said it won't happen.
The next day, Peter denied Jesus thrice.
The revelation to Peter did not stop Peter from doing the prophecy.
That's the God I serve, when he says something, it happens.
This is a strange submission, PO didn't even contest in any primary either in PDP or LP.
Define running an honest primary, is it only the one your candidate wins that's honest?
A good day to remind everyone crying about vote splitting that no one would've split votes if PDP had run an honest primary and picked the most popular Southern candidate in recent history. Instead of running a silly, business as usual process. Look in the mirror.
Happy Birthday to Rev
@onayinka_segun
, your ministry saved my life. Your impact on the Nigerian Church will be written in the history books, to more years teaching, growing and expressing the Savour of Christ.
I love you sir.
One of the reasons why we must be invested in AI research is because this little language nuance is going to deny a lot of people opportunities.
Many of my friends here are noted for verbosity, many of which will be denied opportunities because they will be seen as AI.
Separate its regulatory arm from the operating arm.
1. Start with welfare and retraining.
2. Start address mapping and verification exercise to update location. Start with high volume cities
3. Set up a parcel tracking system that's transparent and API integrating for startups

Dear believer, I hope your consecration and urgency for souls is driving you to evangelize, pray and study.
Don't say you are a kingdom financier without doing the basics.
When people imagine a violent struggle, they imagine they'd end up with George Washington, usually however they end up with PolPot.
I can bet that violent revolution in Nigeria will enthrone even worse leaders than we currently do.
Tunde and Iyin should start from values, that's the deeper problem.
I wish them great success, plus believing it won't work is needlessly cynical.
If it works, we have a template that can be scaled to solve a real problem.
My best friends of over 20 years are staunch Tinubu-ists, I should block them because of your political candidate?
For a politician? Have you met politicians? I mean actually participated in a political campaign.
I grew up in CAC and being raised in a place like that exposes you to some things that are Supernatural.
I no fit argue some things on twitter, oju ti ri.
Calling the Bible corrupt
Calling Jesus a Man
Denying the resurrection
Mocking us for believing in the Holy Spirit, I could go on.
It's so normalised that you don't know that's what you are doing.
Thinking about it now , you’ll never catch Muslims insulting Jesus or any other religious deity, we are always respectful towards other people religious beliefs. Why can’t other people do the same towards us?
My unpopular opinion, the adoption of Obi as some sort of messianic figure sent from God to save Nigeria from was a net negative for Christians and for PO himself.
A falling exchange rate leads to export opportunities.
That's why we are doing things like using guns to prevent exports.
I will automatically declare any politician that says Nigeria doesn't respond to economic theories a fraud.
You go after our funds but we will convert it to bitcoin and still continue to donate.
All of you meeting with them, can you see that they are unserious. Blocking accounts and threatening women.
I want to bless God for Pst Chris Segun Onayinka. I know that when the history of Charismatic in Nigeria is written, his work will not be easily discounted.
If there are 100,000 doctors in Nigerian and only 4 Neurosurgical consultants in Nigeria.
If 3 of them decide to leave for Canada, in pure numbers nothing seems to have happened but we all know that's years of experience and learning lost.
I have to say this,
@PraxisSociety
has this very interesting vibe that I haven't felt anywhere about the future.
Definitely one community to watch out for in the coming decade.
One thing I learned from Pastor Onayinka is the importance of keeping the church focused on the core mission which is the gospel and not using it as a tool of political influence.
@EOEboh
I think I have answered this twice already. Genetics plays a huge role.
The interesting thing is that I wanted the focus to be on intelligence bit but people can probably relate to the height part more.
Femi Gbajabiamila has a legislative internship, if you want to know how NASS works beyond sensational headlines on twitter you can register.
After spending some time at NASS for the past few month, I realize how much people don't know about the legislative process.
Over the last few weeks, i have been increasingly testing the climate of ideas within the nation and it seems that a certain set of people want to normalize bad economic ideas and pass it on the citizens.
Some members of the intellectual class are actively pushing this idea.
Miracles always have a rational explanation to the one who wants to mock it.
However, the person who experiences it, it is much clearer to them that no rational explanation works.
I am cynical about human nature which is why the gospel is so compelling to me.
The temperance it promises, the restraint, love and kindness. The doggedness of conviction it requires.
This is my unpopular opinion
Touching grass should be a policy position.
I truly believe shutting down social media twice a week at a start would help in dealing with a lot of social issues.
