@tokunbo_wahab There used to be a government team called drain ducks in Lagos. Just before the rains start they go all over desilt canals, pack debris out of gutters and evacuate the waste. It would be nice if you could reintroduce them as part of your interventions.

Following the inspection of communities impacted by the excessive rainfall recorded over the past few days in Eti-Osa and Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Areas, the Lagos State Government has deployed a swamp buggy to the Ogombo canal to commence the clearing and desilting of the drainage channel. The intervention is aimed at widening and deepening the canal to improve the free flow of stormwater, enhance drainage capacity, and accelerate the recession of floodwaters in the affected communities. #CleanerLagos

@bodmas94 @thecableng Wemimo Ogunde!

@thecableng We used to have an Attorney-General in Ogun State who walked away with his dignity intact.

@Elkrosmediahub Some will say it's the fault of the es350

Overspeeding on the coastal road 😩😩😔

i saw a mouse with an X-shaped battery compartment. first thought: this is stupid - who designed it? 5 seconds later: oh. 10 seconds later: OHHH! the X slot fits an AA or an AAA battery - whichever you've got lying around. the part most people miss is that the shape also makes it physically impossible to load both at once. there is no warning label, no instructions and no way to screw it up. the geometry does the thinking for you. japanese has a word for this. poka-yoke = "mistake-proofing." the product refuses your stupidity before you can offer it. i wish more things worked like this.

In church a couple sat in front of me, very fine couple. A teacher from children session brought their daughter in that she was crying. This fine baby came in and stopped crying when she saw daddy. Each time the mum touched the dad to tell him something the child will remove her hand🤣🤣🤣 in my head I am like you never grow you are forming territory 😩😩

“Don’t miss help from God because it doesn’t look the way you expected it to come.” - Pastor Jimmy Odukoya Sometimes, the answer isn’t a sudden miracle… it’s a person. A covering. A voice. A hand sent just when you need it most. Stay open. Stay discerning. Stay grateful. “Helped by God” is now available to replay on YouTube via JimmyOdukoyaOfficial or Fountain TV. #SundayService #TFOLC

@SekumadeM @Gidi_Traffic You need to move to Mowe.

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

@yinkanubi Eat Bokku bread. In my experience theydont seem to use preservative cos if we dont finish it by the 2nd day it begins to turn.

I stopped eating beans because I was told they mixed it with sniper to preserve it. I stopped eating Fufu because i was told they mixed it with detergent to maximise profit. Now it seems I will stop eating bread because I hear they're adding preservatives to make it last for months. Which one is next? Rice or Yam? God help us!

@OloyeSomorin Exide batteries

Entered service in 2017 and finally giving up the ghost in 2026. A little tidbit. We used to make batteries in Ibadan and shipped all over Africa.

@Letter_to_Jack @DapoAbiodunCON For accountants on here is the 10k taxable?

FLASH: Governor Dapo Abiodun @DapoAbiodunCON, has approved a weekly day off and a ₦10,000 additional monthly transport allowance for civil servants in Ogun State for three months, beginning from April 2026. This decision was made to provide succor for the workforce of Ogun State in light of the hike in the price of fuel in the country and its attendant impact on the cost of transportation and general standard of living, Workers on essential duties, including medical personnel, judicial staff, teachers, security personnel, and heads of departments, would be exempted from the weekly day-off arrangement but they will benefit from the transport allowance.

@Nnewi300 Wished I can like this tweet 100x. Met a fresh graduate who didn't know about nairaland recently. Was shocked!

Our last born called me sometime ago to say that his name was on the list of those going for NYSC.. I said my congratulations, happy that he will soon become a government pikin earning minimum wage. The next thing he said made me hiss so loudly that my colleague at work asked me what's wrong.. "Bros they said my jamb registration number has been used by someone else" "How is that possible?" I asked. "I don't know." He replied. Obviously frustrated with the whole thing. I dropped the call and went to the only place I was sure I could get the information I need. NAIRALAND. I looked for the NYSC thread for corpers and started to read through over 50 pages of information.. People complained about the same issue in the past and they wrote about how they resolved it. I called my brother back and told him to go to jamb office in owerri to complain. He simply told me the student affairs officer suggested the same thing. He went to jamb office, made some payments and the issue was sorted out. He went back to the student affairs officer with some information from jamb and that was it. Dude was in camp weeks ago.. This morning I learnt of someone who missed camping last month because of the same issue. He had a nairaland account but wasn't aware that he could have gotten the information there. They simply told him to wait for the next batch and he went home to sleep. Today is Monday.. I just want to remind you how valuable NAIRALAND is if you are a job seeker, looking for how to apply for a study visa, following up on current recruitment, infact anything. Just Google the information you need and add nairaland.. Boom you will see information that will help you sort whatever problem you are having. Please we also have people fraudulent intentions on nairaland. So be careful too. Have a great week!

@mepba_suka @xexiboy2 Management is not as blind as a lot of people think. It only acts in its best interest at the moment.

@xexiboy2 I didn’t pay anyone back secretly I don’t even have access to management the way she does and that’s why she’s suprised she was laid off

My boss, who had been very mean to me, was recently sacked and is now threatening to report me to her pastor. I work as a data analyst in a company that offers telemedicine services under the HR team, and from the start, my immediate supervisor treated me harshly. She would often delegate a large proportion of her own work to me, and even when I delivered well which was quite often she would take all the credit. We work five days a week, yet she only showed up about two times each week. Because of her position, no one could question it. Recently, management decided to lay off staff who weren’t meeting expectations, and unfortunately, she was among those affected. She called me that night, asking whether I had been sacked, to which I told her I hadn’t. After that, she questioned why I wasn’t sacked like she was, claiming she taught me everything I know. She then accused me of doing something to have her laid off, went on to rain all sorts of curses on me, called me a witch, and threatened to report me to her pastor. why do some people especially in Africa b tend to spiritualize situations that can clearly be explained by personal actions and accountability?

@a_fareed_o The compressor is for which vehicle?

Electric Scooter

Why is the timeline so quiet about the suffering lagosians went through yesterday in the hands of kara bridge and it's idiotic managers who chose one of the days with the highest traffic to cordon off a road that is the gateway to the rest of the country ? @FMWNIG @Gidi_Traffic

@Letter_to_Jack @DapoAbiodunCON He should do thesame at kara. Starting from opic turning , world oil filling station entrance all the way to immediately after fatgbems at the tip of the long bridge. An illegal trailer and passenger park is springing up and causing traffic.

FLASH🚨: Governor Dapo Abiodun @DapoAbiodunCON has ordered the relocation of the illegal motor park and roadside traders at the Sango Tollgate on the Ogun–Lagos border after repeated fatal accidents. Interstate buses and street traders that have been occupying the illegal spot for over 25 years will be moved to organised locations, while barricades will be put in place to block any return. The decision followed an inspection by Environment Commissioner Ola Oresanya @dejioresanya with officials of the ministry, OGWAMA, and Ado-Odo/Ota LGA. Authorities say the move will curb accidents, end illegal trading around the tollgate, and restore order, with a full environmental cleanup also planned. Enforcement begins in days.

@arojinle1 Ibadan. Seen it in ogun state too close to lagos. Red headed malimbe?

I'm in the same city with this bird. China, Australia, US, UK...none of them has it. 🥱

@DangoteGroup how do you want to insulate the Nigeria market to global shocks? PMS selling at >1k is a no no for the average Nigerian. This is going to unleash another round of inflation in the economy. @officialABAT @nnpclimited

@EverythingCar_X If you complain about this one what will you say about the one sold brand new in Nigeria. Very basic thing like that..

See the china infotainment system sef😭
