@MrBlackOG Harvey Specter is a corporate lawyer, corporate lawyer often struggle with criminal cases. Joe Proctor in Power could not consistently save Ghost - he couldn’t even save himself 🤣. Annalise Keating depended too much on her protégés - though efficient. Now you see Saul.

@Morris_Monye The irony is that even if you are the 3rd generation settler in Lagos - you still would not be a Lagosian. Same way a third generation Yoruba man who settles in Anambra will not be considered an Anambra indigene. As a Nigerian, you can exercise certain rights - buh you should.

@OmoKiikan They have wind turbines in the estate?. To power an estate would be very expensive, the Battery/storage facility alone. How would that even work? - perhaps they use wind power for backup/basic energy needs 🤔.

@renoomokri A lady like this was not brought up with love. “Slap you,” “idiot”, “feet on your balls” etc. suggests she definitely hates men - or at least hates white men. Probably grew up with an absent father or can’t find love with a man.

@followlasg There is a deliberate effort to Censor Yoruba on this app - and it’s really scary. I lived in Wales for circa 2 and half years, and signs and public notices are in Welsh and English language. You would not see an English / Scot ask Welsh not to write in their language.

@renoomokri Nigeria is sleeping on idle taxes… . The cost of owning a car in the UK is alarming. In Nigeria - with N5000 you can get a car insurance for the whole year (not sure about now) - but car insurance can be as high as £300 per month for most immigrants in the UK, as most insurance.

@channelstv Simple explanation…. When interest rates go up… . 1. Cost of borrowing money from banks go up… . So people borrow less. 2. Savings rates go up too, for those of you with savings accounts. So people would prefer to save money in their accounts. The CBN raises interest to.
