A man pretended to be purchasing bread from a vendor at a busy market in Ibadan. Unbeknownst to the unsuspecting seller, the man quickly took a loaf of bread worth N1,500 and hid it in his bag. Unfortunately for the thief, a bystander noticed his actions and immediately exposed him. Watch the video and share your thoughts in the comments.

Movie producer and actor, Chris Bassey, has taken to plumbing after leaving Nigeria for Canada.
Speaking during a live chat with Daddy Freeze on Instagram, he emphasized that his new career pays better than tech jobs and also gives him a more relaxed lifestyle.
Daddy Freeze asked: “I know you as a producer and actor, what career are you into this Yankee?”
Bassey replied: “I’m into construction here. I do construction; I am a plumber.”
Daddy Freeze who was surprised by the development, however questioned the actor’s transition despite his fame.
Bassey said in pidgin: “In the last seven months, the province I have visited just on weekends in Canada, even person wey dey do tech no fit afford am. For here, I don’t know about the UK or US.”
movies and entertainment doesn't pay in Nigeria anymore because of the competitions available, there are many people doing it and ready to be heard or seen hence you're not too good or exceptional you won't shine or make it from there 💯✌️

With all the anti people policies so far that seem not to be ending anytime soon, Tinubu have no chance for second term even if he want to rig, i don't see how he can easily pull it off.
If Tinubu beat Atiku again then it is 100% rig, with all the policies that seem not to give a fvck about Nigerians survival there's no way in hell he is going to win even South west won't vote for him.
People are going to vote for Atiku not because he is going to turn things around or because he is better than Tinubu, they are going to vote for Atiku because Tinubu just put Nigerians through so much suffering and they can't just bare to vote for him again, 2027 is for Atiku as long as he play his card right.
bruh, atiku is a worse option than tinubu. You better forget about tribalism and vote Peter obi, he's our only savior among these 3 guys stop being tribalistic and talk of what will help Nigerians...

wo American tourists, Liza Gatsby, and Peter Jenkins, have recounted what led them to spend over 36 years in Nigeria instead of the 10-day transit visas that were approved for them in 1988.
The two tourists made the revelation in an interview with a content creator, David Nkwa, monitored by our correspondent on Wedsnesday.
According to them, they never planned to stay in Nigeria beyond their approved days of visitation until they saw the need to save drill monkeys in the country because they were impressed by the dominance of interesting opportunities in areas of Science and Wildlife Conservation, the roads, the hospitality of Nigerians and the living condition that appeared better compared to America in those days.
“I’ll tell you what I like about Nigerians. Okay, that’s what makes Nigeria different from every other country in Africa. They would say ‘hey! Oyinbo, come in na, sit down, make we talk. Make I go buy you the drink.’ That is the difference between Nigeria and the rest of Africa.
There were a lot of interesting opportunities in areas of Science and Wildlife Conservation that we became involved in, and we’re still here 36 years later. We arrived with a 10-day transit visa, and we have been here for 36 years.
“We founded a nonprofit organisation called Pandas that ranches monkey drills in Bano and Calabar in Cross River State. I don’t think that one species is more important than another, just like I don’t think that human beings are more important than drills or elephants are more important than whales; I think we are all of equal value, and the drill is a scarce species, it’s one of the rarest animals in Africa and it’s one of those animals you never thought you would even see when we were traveling across Africa, you know I had my Wildlife Field Guide and you look at the pictures,” Gatsby, one of the tourists said.
Speaking on why Calabar was their place of choice, Jenkins said they had done their research and that aside from Cameroon, Calabar was another place for monkey drills, stressing that no scientist or tourist had discovered that those animals were living there until 1987 when they consulted the local people in the community and got funding to make it habitable while conserving the rare species of Monkeys and other animals including girafees.
Jenkins added, “I love Nigeria, this is a great place. Come and live in Calabar and be at rest.When we got here, the population of Nigeria in early ’90s and the late 80s was around 65 million.
“The amount of natural resources that were still intact was extraordinary, and the density of wildlife generally in the forest was better compared to today. In fact, it’s appallingly low now, but in those days, this was a wonderful place to do research. Communities were very welcoming in those days; life was cheap; here, diesel, which is what our Land Rover ran on, was 35 Kobo, and with 29 kobo to the market, you would come back with two heavy bags with change in the pocket.
“We were comfortable and found Nigeria habitable. It was the best value country on this continent by far. The food was cheap, the road was perfect. There was no gallop deaper than a botlle cap.”
Meanwhile, Gabsty identified the lack of patriotism as the challenge facing many Nigerians while berating the growing negligence of the country’s culture, heritage, identity, music, traditional herbs, and healing.
“Nigerians don’t have pride in Nigeria’s natural heritage. I think that’s a big issue because that’s what it takes to try to make a difference. People don’t take pride in their cultural identity, language, traditional herbs, and healing.
“There was this huge wealth of knowledge when we came here on traditional healing and herbs from the forest, and that was another thing that put value on the natural resources here, but which of these old herbalists have an apprentice who is learning from them and when these old guys are gone all that knowledge is going to be lost?
You go to the market now; we see herbal teas and herbal cures imported from China. How do we know that those things work? What’s wrong with our traditional ones here?” She queried.
wow, and the immigration service are still doing their jobs, (collecting salaries) wow 😯👏

These are five Lies the Lagos/Ibadan expressway media and their Northern cohorts have been telling gainst Igbos since the 60's, which they still tell to this day.
That Nzeogwus was an Igbo coup
The only way to call Nzeogwu's coup an Igbo coup is if Murtala Mohammeds coup was a "Hausa coup", Dimkas coup a "middle belt coup", Buhari's coup a "Fulani coup", Babangida's coup a "Gwari coup" and Abacha's coup a "Kanuri coup". When people only to give ethnic tag to coup when it comes to Igbos, then you know something fishy is going on. They will later turn around and even tell you when it suits them, that Nzeogwu is not an Igbo man. Nigeria even rewarded notorious coup plotters like Buhari with Presidency, Murtala Mohammed put on the N20 note, and Babangida with GCFR
That Ironsi abolished Regionalism and introduced unitary rule with Decree 34
Of course they know you will never Google Decree 34 to find out it was a civil service Decree. What Ironsi introduced was military rule. He neither abolished the 4 Region's Nigeria had at the time, nor denied them resource control. It was Gowon that came after Ironsi, used Decree 14 to abolish all 4 Region's, created 12 states to replace them, and introduced full blown unity rule with Decree 15 which abolished resource control
That Ojukwu started the war
Far from it, Ojukwu did everything he could to prevent war including risking his own life to go to Aburi, Ghana, where the government of Ghana and Nigeria could have killed him, just to sign a peace agreement with Gowon, to keep Nigeria one and prevent war. Unfortunately, Gowon and his Northern cohorts broke the agreement and war followed. If anyone caused the war, it was Gowon
That Zik prevented secession clause from entering the constitution
There was Awolowo, there was ZIk, there was Ahmadu Bello, Aminu Kano, Enahoro etc. But they want you to believe that Zik alone arm-twisted all these heavy weights, to decide what should, or should not be in the constitution? Is that really practical? One man decided what will be in the constitution of Nigeria while the British were in control? Get real
That Igbos are the problem of Nigeria
Those saying this are the same people who have been ruling Nigeria for almost 60 years, but they still blame Igbos for how Nigeria is 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆

No fewer than 100 South-West groups under the aegis of the Alliance for Yoruba Democratic Movement, AYDM, have condemned calls for a military takeover, saying it is unwarranted.
The groups, which faulted the promoters in Lagos, said a military coup in Nigeria could result in secession.
AYDM insisted that the lasting solution to Nigeria’s social conflicts was ethnic self-determination, arguing that the potential of the Yoruba people had been stunted and it was time they left as an alternative to violence and coups.
Rising from its Pan-Yoruba-Itsekiri Global Summit themed: ‘Sustainable Democracy in Nigeria: The Role of Non-state Actors,’ the groups, in a communiqué, stated it was aware of the historic challenges faced by the country, but appalled by calls for a military coup coming from a section of the country.
The statement reads: “We are alarmed that some people in their desperation are calling for military rule. Let those who plan a return to dictatorship know that there will be no military rule in the entire Oduduwa territories. Our people will resist with all our strength even if it means armed resistance.
"Since 1914 forceful amalgamation of Nigeria, the potentials of the Yoruba people have been stunted and it was time for the Yoruba people to leave Nigeria as a viable alternative to ceaseless violence, killings and coups. We are alarmed that some people in their desperation are calling for military rule. Let those who plan a return to dictatorship know that there will be no military rule in the entire Oduduwa territories. Our people will resist with all our strength even if it means armed resistance.
"Those calling for military intervention are the same people solely responsible for the rot, the systemic decay, the persecution of ethnic groups and the laying of the very foundation responsible for the current challenges that confront Nigeria.
"The people calling for military intervention kept quiet for eight years when their candidate was the President of Nigeria with his parochial and self-serving policies which partly created the woes that currently face the country today; But in less than one year, they want the country to burn. There is a plot by some martial forces to stage a military coup and a comeback of the same forces that laid the foundation for the ruin of the country.
"Advocates of military rule are from a particular sector of the country doing so for parochial interests. These are ethnic far-right elements who want to control the country by all means. In their archaic tradition, they detest the fact that people have the right to vote and power has to shift from them. This is the only reason they are plotting to overthrow the minimum gains of democracy."

.show us were u from abeg,even with half picture pls
I'm from Enugu bro, the town; so what do you have to say?

Lexzeey:
Whenever someone wrong me I don't make a fuss, I don't yell, I don't fight, I don't try to get even, I just smile and I won't say anything either, but for some reason they believe I don't move on, that those who act like that carry grudge and are more sinister when it comes to revenge, one time I joked about quiet people and how easy going they are, and my brother was like, slow poisons are the most wicked people to ever walk the earth, (I'm the slow poison in this instance) then he referenced one time I had a scuffle with one man and I cried, he claims crying wasn't because I fought with someone, it's because people didn't let me do what's on my mind and that's a sign of extreme wickedness, when the man was throwing punches I didn't retaliate immediately, instead I took a step back, and when I wanted to get even alot of onlookers held me and stopped me from getting even so I started crying, he claims people who act like that are more dangerous than people who yell and break stuff when things happen but in my opinion I'm so chill, far from wickedness he's talking about, my girlfriend is now saying the same thing, she said she prefers if I make a scene when she wrong me, that way she'd know I have blown off steam and moved on, that the way I just smile and say nothing makes me seem untrustworthy and she's feeling uncomfortable with that, I should at least throw a tantrum, isn't that toxicity? Are they right about me.
moral of these stories: people will judge, no matter what you do...
The economy is recovering. Please, don?t shut out its oxygen - President Tinubu appeals to Nigerians
President Bola Tinubu has appealed to protesters not to “shut out” the oxygen of the country’s economy as it is on its way to “recovery.”
While delivering his nationwide broadcast this morning, the President said he understands that the nationwide protests are driven by economic hardship but his government is “committed to listening and addressing” the concerns of all Nigerians.
“My istration is working very hard to improve and expand our national infrastructure and create more opportunities for our young people.
Let nobody misinform and miseducate you about your country or tell you that your government does not care about you. Although there have been many dashed hopes in the past, we are in a new era of Renewed Hope. We are working hard for you, and the results will soon be visible and concrete for everyone to see, feel, and enjoy.
Let us work together to build a brighter future for ourselves and for generations to come. Let us choose hope over fear, unity over division, and progress over stagnation. The economy is recovering; Please, don’t shut out its oxygen. Now that we have been enjoying democratic governance for 25 years, do not let the enemies of democracy use you to promote an unconstitutional agenda that will set us back on our democratic journey.” he said
Unfortunately we are cursed with these useless Nigerian men. They go to other people's countries traffick drugs and people, commit all kinds of atrocities and still expect respect? Who respects a criminal?
They think it's Nigeria where they worship criminal politicians? No country trusts us again because of the criminality of Nigerian men. God help us 😭😭😭
Nigerian men CHANGE
A good name is better than gold, silver and riches.

To move forward in Nigeria, we must acknowledge the root causes of our problems. We must confront the demons of tribalism, nepotism, and sectarianism that have held us back for far too long. We must also address the systemic issues that have led to our economic woes.

Recall that Aliko Dangote, CEO of Dangote Refineries, Nigeria mentioned that a blending plant was setup in Malta and is now actively used to frustrate the efforts to get the local refinery up and running for the Nigerian market.
A revelation by an X , revealed one of the alleged plants in Malta and the directors. We will watch to see how this unfolds.

Says a nuisance who earns stipends from the government. Tinubu campaigned against the government right back from ahead ago and now it's his turn to be campaigned and protested against and suddenly protesting is a crime. The protest will go one as planned

A Kind hearted Nairaland should help me apprehend an Abuja criminal that broke into our compound with machete and stole my laptop and phones even phones from other my neighbors. Now the criminal made a grievous mistake by using my SIM card to call a certain phone number and also borrowing money to do data subscription to that particular same number.
I need anybody with serious connections to the Police in Abuja that intelligent with tracking someone with phone number so that we can bring this guy to the book.
I'm also a struggling Nigerian without a tangible job . This laptop he stole was gifted to me by my childhood friend to use for my Programming tutorials just few weeks ago, so you can imagine the heartbreak , I do not exactly have enough money to pay police to track the criminal so I'm urging well meaningful Nigerians with the rightful connections to the Police to help me apprehend this common Thief so that God's name will be glorified . Amen!
call 911 and make your complaints or call Nigeria's PRC number 08057000001

Orlu state is most favoured going by the method through which the existing five states in the southeast area were created.
State creation is primarily for development. Anioma area as capital area of Delta state has developed immensely after profiting as capital territory of Delta state.
Let's give a chance to the underdeveloped area between Imo West and parts of Anambra south senatorial zone for the proposed Orlu state which most merited the location of any sixth state for the southeast area.
for this, I think anioma is the best option of creation of new state
