And it doesn’t end with the nomination form alone. To become a state governor in some parts of Nigeria, you may have to spend over 10 billion naira. Even to become a member of a State House of Assembly in some places, you could spend more than 100 million naira.

@Mayoveli The very day I learned how much nomination forms were being sold for was the day I understood why we are where we are. In a country where only less than 5% of the population have 500k yet nomination forms is being sold for millions of naira

@FatihC51811b @dcadla @SEmreesen @XpressTR @pratikdunya It works both ways
You're over thinking
Think of it as a flat CD rom
The center of the disk is the north
The outer edges is the south
And going round the disk is the east to west circumnavigation

Do you know the crazy part?
If Peter Obi wins the next election, personalities like Adekunle Gold, Simi, Toke Makinwa, Pastor Adeboye, etc will likely find their voices again and begin criticizing his government, just like they did to Jonathan.
There’s a pattern & It’s deeply rooted in tribalism.
English
@dcadla @FatihC51811b @SEmreesen @XpressTR @pratikdunya I don't think it does work that way
North takes you to the center
East and west circumnavigates the realm
And the south takes you to Antarctica
Shortest way to explain

@FatihC51811b @SEmreesen @XpressTR @pratikdunya How is that a flat surface? North, south, east, west all end in Antartica? Explain how that works.

Look at all the prayers today
After killing your enemies
And the goal of the enemies is to make u not to prosper and in good health
Then you start praying for health and wealth

Lmao I have 2.
Mother Teresa and Mahatma Gandhi.
Mother Teresa let dying patients be treated with blunt reused needles, had a mortality rate about 40% in her clinics and when she was confronted about the conditions, said there’s something beautiful in seeing the poor accept their lot, and to suffer it like Christ’s Passion. Doctors called her facilities “homes for the dying”. And cancer patients were given aspirin for pain.
Gandhi too, the face of universal peace, the person that said “be the change you wish to see”, spent years in South Africa describing Black Africans as “savage”, “dirty” and living like animals. He campaigned actively to prove to British rulers that Indians were superior to native Black Africans. He also organized a brigade to help suppress a Zulu uprising. His defenders say he evolved. Maybe.
Nobody likes to talk about the entire sides of history.
And these are their summarized versions btw.

@RicGigante @Big_Mck I don't think it's tribalism
Nigerians had the full effect of the USA propaganda machine
It felt like opium, ecstatic humans
Heaven was paramount
But in time, most Nigerians discovered it was a scam
Like never concocted on such a large scale
Some have not recovered

@Big_Mck The hate on GEJ is just tribalism that's all it is. In Nigeria there hasn't been any corruption free governance so I don't understand why GEJ is always singled out when under him Nigeria had it's best economy and highest GDP
English
The way he called him a terrible president, you would think Nigeria has had the likes of Deng Xiaoping as presidents before and after GEJ.
GEJ had his flaws, just like every other president, but calling a President who was engineering one of the fastest-growing economies in the world a terrible president is a very criminal way to hide the fact that his ouster had nothing to do with leadership failure, but entirely a subject of a United States regime change operation, aimed specifically at making sure Nigeria’s economy never grows.
You people should always double-check before posting.
Wolfie 🐺@TheIgboWolf
GEJ was a terrible president. However, everyone should keep the same energy if the hatred was just about his incompetence alone.

The production of Christopher Nolan received permission for 15 days of filming in Greece with a budget of 16 million euros. The Greek state gave them 6 million as a subsidy from the money of Greek taxpayers, who were never informed about the cast of the film or the distortion of the most important work in our history.
The issue here is not that they received money. We Greeks would gladly have given all 16 million for Nolan to shoot a faithful Odyssey. But it should have been a film that properly represents us Greeks, Hellenism and stays true to the values and writings of Homer. Not so we Greeks could pay for a Black Helen and Clytemnestra, a Batman-like Agamemnon, a trans Achilles or Elpenor (a woman playing a male role), a Black Athena, and a script based on the worst possible "translation" that exists.
In short, Nolan disrespected all Greeks, while the Greek people are now officially in the crosshairs of racism and the falsification of their history and culture. Woke Hollywood must die.

I was telling someone the other day about these billionaires 😅. I only appreciate them for one thing: LEVERAGE. At least we saw the Abiolas. Despite their father’s wealth, none of them have been able to sustain that billionaire legacy. So, kudos to Otedola and co, but I prefer to read books that resonate with my circumstances.

Eric Daugherty@EricLDaugh
🚨 WOW! President Trump just dropped this video of a Nigerian pastor speaking over SLAUGHTERED CHRISTIANS in Nigeria, and says "watch what's next" "No games!" 47 has just ordered a strike on an Islamist in Nigeria "THEY ARE KILLING CHRISTIANS IN NIGERIA." "Tell Trump to save our life in Nigeria!" And it seems MORE is coming 👀 47 just got back from China and is going off! I voted for this! 🇺🇸

There is absolutely nothing in the Epics that justifies the use of white-Anglo actors as less anachronistic over Black ones. Greeks are neither Black nor White. Ancient Greeks like Aristotle in the Physiognomika described themselves as "the middle point between Ethiopians and Milky-white people like the Northeners and women". "τὸ δὲ μέσον χρῶμα εὐψυχίας σημεῖον" Homer contains more Africans & Easterners than Scandinavians(none) & Anglos(none). Why then would WASPS like yourself be more representative of ancient Greeks? Ancient Greeks had less "Indo-European" DNA(R1b marker) than their modern ancestors, both have very little of it anyway and both have had Aegean/Anatolian markers in their majority. Memnon the Ethiopian is described by Odysseus in Homer as "the most handsome man he ever laid eyes on". Ethiopians draw first blood against the Argives and for that it was said that "Zeus dines with the Ethiopians". In the later Epic Cycle they are described as "more capable [at arms] than Acheans" "προφερεστεροι των Αχαιων" Perseus married Andromeda the Ethiopian. Pelops came from the East. Kadmos from Phoinicia. Hephaistus from Egypt where he is known as Aigyptus. As did Danaos, the progenitor of the Danaans, the largest of the Greek forces in Troy. Plato relates the story of Solon going to visit and getting the wisdom off Egyptian Priests. Manetho, the Egyptian Priest wrote the first collated history fo Egypt in Greek. Euryvatis, Odysseus' kyrix is described as "black, wooly-haired, round-shouldered, wide-stepped/long-legs". Odysseus is described as "black", much the same way Helen is descrived as "white". Is this how you're hoping to make yourself relevant again? By trying to squeeze yourself into a racist debate as the self-appointed leader of the down-trodden poor-white-blondes that make up the vast majority of the cast of the movie anyway cause you're feeling left-out? Greece minted coins bearing African heads since the 6th BCE, the Lesbos exhibits are quite stunning:

"But the West intentionally hide that part of history n amplify Greece's golden age to make themselves look invincible"
Tell me about those 400 years when Turks occupied Greece.
Let me guess, you don't know cos those are not seen as part of Greece's history
But whenever we talk about Africa, Africa's Golden age is dismissed n the topic is forced to center on slavery🤌
English
Turkey colonised (civilised) Greece for over 400 years
But the West intentionally hide that part of history n amplify Greece's golden age to make themselves look invincible
While intentionally centering African history around slavery to hide Africa's historic civilization.
Europe is the real "we wuz kings n shit"
