At this juncture, I would like to tell Nigerians to stop fighting Fulani and their cattle. It will be pointless. People should do the following instead:

1. Allow them raype all your women, old and young. If if they want gaye sẹks with you, give it to them hot hot.

2. Surrender your lands to them and let them be sending you on errands.

3. Give them all the money your family send you from abroad, let them give you any percentage they deem fit.

4. Let your traditional rulers go to Sokoto every month to prostrate before the sultan that he may place his left leg on them.

5. Anytime you cook, if at all they let you, ensure that their cattle taste the food before you eat it. In fact the ruminants must eat to satisfaction before you do.

6. Continue crying to the government like imbecils when they atack you.

7. If by any chance you summon courage to fyte back, make sure you record the action and post the videos to your social media platforms so that you can be identified and arrested.

This should not surprise anyone. El rufai and Atiku are both Fulani. Both have kept silent while there people keep killing Nigerians.


My message to indigenous people is not to fight Fulani herdsmen, rather:
1. Allow them raype all your women, old and young. If if they want gaye sẹks with you, give it to them hot hot.

2. Surrender your lands to them and let them be sending you on errands.

3. Give them all the money your family send you from abroad, let them give you any percentage they deem fit.

4. Let your traditional rulers go to Sokoto every month to prostrate before the sultan that he may place his left leg on them.

5. Anytime you cook, if at all they let you, ensure that their cattle taste the food before you eat it. In fact the ruminants must eat to satisfaction before you do.

6. Continue crying to the government like imbecils when they atack you.

7. If by any chance you summon courage to fyte back, make sure you record the action and post the videos to your social media platforms so that you can be identified and arrested.

While killer Herdsmen are killing people and ravaging farmlands, one phony lawmaker is commissioning bet shop.

Anyway there is no need to fight killer Fulani herdsmen. Instead people should do the following:

1. Allow them raype all your women, old and young. If if they want gaye sẹks with you, give it to them hot hot.

2. Surrender your lands to them and let them be sending you on errands.

3. Give them all the money your family send you from abroad, let them give you any percentage they deem fit.

4. Let your traditional rulers go to Sokoto every month to prostrate before the sultan that he may place his left leg on them.

5. Anytime you cook, if at all they let you, ensure that their cattle taste the food before you eat it. In fact the ruminants must eat to satisfaction before you do.

6. Continue crying to the government like imbecils when they atack you.

7. If by any chance you summon courage to fyte back, make sure you record the action and post the videos to your social media platforms so that you can be identified and arrested.

1. What is the noise about? As if he has not appointed people from other tribes.

2. They want political appointments, yet they keep insulting Tinubu everyday.

3. They keep flocking to Yorubaland everyday despite their public display of hate towards Yoruba people. Them and Fulani are land grabbers.

4. Maybe he should not appoint any Yoruba because he is Yorùbá.

1. Allow them raype all your women, old and young. If if they want gaye sẹks with you, give it to them hot hot.

2. Surrender your lands to them and let them be sending you on errands.

3. Give them all the money your family send you from abroad, let them give you any percentage they deem fit.

4. Let your traditional rulers go to Sokoto every month to prostrate before the sultan that he may place his left leg on them.

Oil BLOC is the correct spelling, not oil BLOCK. Sahara reporters should know this.

https://saharareporters.com/2025/02/26/exclusive-nigerian-billionaire-folorunso-alakija-former-protege-babangida-loses-sight

Nigerian billionaire Folorunso Alakija has lost her sight, according to medical sources involved in her care.

Sources revealed to SaharaReporters that the 73-year-old founder and Executive Vice Chairman of Famfa Oil began experiencing health issues after a near air mishap. She was travelling with her husband, Modupe Alakija, Chairman of Famfa Oil, when the incident caused a spike in her blood pressure.

The distressing event is said to have affected her vision.

Following the incident, Alakija reportedly ordered a new jet to avoid travelling on the same flight as her husband. However, her vision continued to deteriorate until she ultimately lost her sight completely.

“She had a near air mishap with her husband on board and her blood pressure reportedly shot up affecting her eyes,” one of the sources said.

“She has been having eyesight issues but instead of treating the illness, she chose to start a church to help her.

“Now she can’t see.”

Folorunso Alakija is a Nigerian billionaire businesswoman and philanthropist who began hosting a small fellowship in her home around 2004, which eventually grew into the Rose of Sharon Glorious Ministry International. On her 69th birthday, she was ordained as an Apostle.

She is the founder of Famfa Oil, a Nigerian company with a significant stake in OML 127, a highly profitable oil block located on the Agbami deep water oilfield in Nigeria.

She is the founder of Famfa Oil, a Nigerian company with a significant stake in OML 127, a highly profitable oil block located on the Agbami deep water oilfield in Nigeria.

According to Forbes, her net worth was estimated at $1 billion as of 2020. In 2015, she was ranked as the 87th most powerful woman in the world by Forbes and was one of only two African women on Forbes' list of the richest people in Africa.

Alakija pursued secretarial studies at Pitman Central College in London in the 1970s. She began her career as an executive secretary at Sijuade Enterprises in Lagos in 1974.

Her wealth is reflected not only in her business ventures but also in her taste for luxury.

One of the aircraft linked to her is a Bombardier Global Express XRS (model BD-700-1A10) with serial number 9416, ed to Wings of Grace Limited on November 25, 2011. This jet has the tail number VP-CEO.

Flight records show that it departed from the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos on February 26 for an undisclosed location.

She also owns a Bombardier Global Express 6000 private jet known for its long-range capabilities and luxurious amenities. It offers a range of up to 6,000 nautical miles with a cruising speed of Mach 0.89.

The jet's cabin is designed for maximum comfort, featuring advanced entertainment systems, fully equipped workspaces, and seating. This aircraft is ed under the tail number VP-CTO.

Records obtained by SaharaReporters show that it departed Lagos at 11:34 WAT on February 24 and arrived in London, UK at 4:18 GMT on February 25.

Folorunso Alakija is involved in several companies, including Famfa Oil Limited, Rose of Sharon Group and Dayspring Property Development Company Limited.

Connection To Babangida

Alakija's first company was a fashion label whose customers included the wife of former dictator Ibrahim Babangida.

The Nigerian government awarded Alakija's company an oil prospecting licence in 1993, which was later converted to an oil mining lease.

The Agbami field has been operating since 2008.

Folorunso Alakija's journey to acquiring an oil block is closely linked to her connection with Maryam Babangida, the late wife of the former dictator.

In the late 1980s, Folorunso Alakija was a successful fashion designer, running a high-end fashion label, Supreme Stitches, which catered to Nigeria's elite, including Maryam Babangida.

Through her fashion business, Alakija developed a close relationship with Maryam, who was influential as Nigeria's First Lady at the time.

In 1993, Folorunso Alakija applied for an oil prospecting licence. At that time, Nigeria's military government was granting oil blocks to indigenous companies to encourage local participation in the petroleum industry.

She was awarded an Oil Prospecting Licence (OPL) by General Babangida's regime.

It is widely believed that her close relationship with Maryam Babangida played a significant role in securing the license.

Initially, the oil block was considered high-risk and of low value. However, after partnering with Texaco (now Chevron) for exploration, it was discovered to contain significant reserves, transforming it into one of Nigeria's most lucrative oil blocks.

This discovery drastically increased her wealth, making her one of the richest women in Africa.

The Nigerian government attempted to reclaim the oil block in 2000, but Alakija fought a legal battle to retain her stake. In 2008, the Nigerian Supreme Court ruled in her favour, restoring her 60% share in the block.

So her connection with the Babangida family played a pivotal role in her journey from a fashion entrepreneur to a billionaire oil magnate.

Meanwhile, there have been reports suggesting that Alakija and her husband, Modupe Alakija, have separated after over 30 years of marriage. These reports, which emerged around March 2024, indicate that the couple has been living apart due to personal differences.

However, there has been no official confirmation from the Alakija family regarding their marital status.

Few people in this section will the story of What happened after I lied on my CV:
https://nairaland.unblockandhide.com/7137757/what-happened-after-lied-cv

And how I got hired and fired in 24 hours. https://nairaland.unblockandhide.com/7120400/how-got-hired-fired-within

Many years after this fateful event, I saw a random job ad somewhere I can't . The email address provided for applicants to forward their CVs looks like susanjerry at Gmail dot com.

The interview was scheduled for 10 AM on Monday. I managed to get there 10 minutes late after the HR, a Business istration graduate from Madonna University had called the previous day to remind me of the meeting and confirm my availability. I was not the only late applicant. Jonathan, whom they eventually employed also came late, minutes after my arrival. He was studying for his MSc Economics in OAU at that time.

During the interview, I told the boss, the COO, his brother was the CEO, how motivated I was to pursue a career in that industry. I also told him I have applied to other companies in the same industry. He looked at my CV again and told me to do something about the gaps. The usual advice when they don't like you.

He then asked me if I could work for a year without pay. My head was busy with calculations of how to survive, coming to Medife House in Lagos island from Ajah Monday to Friday without pay for a year.
I laughed politely. He said to me "you are laughing". Maybe I should have cried.

He asked for my credentials which I gave them, him and HR/recruiter "Susan Jerry". However, my birth certificate wasn't included. The conclusion was that I should send it to the HR/recruiter by email.

When she saw it, she said my date of birth is different from the date the certificate was issued. End of story.

Keep it up. Those who have the land should help themselves by having a small farm/garden. Tinubu, Atiku and Obi are all the same. Nigerian political elites don't give a damn about the ordinary people.

Tinubu:
What do you expect from someone whose identity is shrouded in mystery?

Atiku:
This one that hides in Dubai.

Peter Obi:
I heard one man from the East say Igbos are not complaining about hardship. Lol. If you believe this you will believe that Obi would not have removed subsidy and devalued the Naira. Somebody who doesn't have a single factory but wants to turn Nigeria into a net producer. Somebody whose businesses are more of selling imported consumer goods.

The solution to Nigeria's problems is self determination. Any other thing is chasing shadows.

You don get visa? It is like people don't read threads anymore.

The worst of these professional association is the Chartered Institute of Stockbrokers. All they are after is to milk for annual dues and charge exorbitant amounts of money for their useless D. Very useless and dubious organisation.

I have been in your shoes. If you cannot quit now, enrol for ICAN or ACCA. This will help you to switch careers from sales to other meaningful ones. But in the mean time, you will have to treat their insults like the ranting of an ant. But be careful. They will set integrity and insubordination traps for you, hoping to destroy your future chances of getting a good job.

My brother u cant and wont get the job... Infact e go hard for u to get job anywhere. It's true that they say GOD indeed sees the heart.
Them call u for interview na OGA WIFE(fair looking woman) you dey observe. Who knows wetin u go cause if them eventually employ u.

Why did she barge in like a goat without a rope? If you are blind I am not. Some of us pay attention to details. And I am sorry to tell you that you are mentally unstable if you see anything wrong with my description of the whole experience. Dirty minded fellow.

I can see how easy it is to manipulate people's mind. Just because I said I took note of somebody's look some people below are convulsing like a person with 1000 demons.
I am gainfully employed FYI.

I was told not to attend the interview, that they could be kidnappers. Venue was Ikota shopping complex in VGC. The suite/room number of the office was "off the grid". while searching for it, I was sweating like a chief Iman caught eating pork meat. I located the place eventually after taking an unintended tour of a section of the complex.

The front office man whose shoe had opened up like the mouth of a hungry catfish answered the door and asked me to wait outside, as he placed a call through to the business owner. Two other applicants, one lady, and a man whose appearance seems like someone who came all the way from Mowe/Ibafo also ed me.

The front man told me to go home, and gave me ₦2,000 as instructed by the boss. He said oga's car developed a fault along the traffic heavy Addo-Badore road.

I collected the money and left. Getting home, I went straight to my church where a deliverance service was ongoing. I dropped the ₦2,000 in the offering box as my contribution for church decoration.

The following day, I returned to the company. I met the oga this time around and we began the chat with questions here and there. I was talking rubbish of course. However, I learnt that he studied ing and that he began his career in auditing. His wife, a nairalander (I think her moniker is pojomojo) who was obviously uninterested spoke to him from another room, it was a partitioned space. She wanted to know what her husband would like for breakfast. She barged in and I took note of her looks. A pretty fair looking woman.

I didn't get the job, afterall the man has 'paid me off'.

Good evening, I'm exactly at the point your were years ago. Which one did you eventually take and why? I look forward to your response

Let me be honest with you, don't waste your time with anything associated with CIS. Unless you already have a job in a stockbroking firm, avoid them like a plague. CIS is not an exam you write thinking you will get a job after ing it.

Stockbroking is more of sales/marketing than investment management. Other firms in the finance sector will not even touch you with a long pole. If your interest is in investment management, consider getting an internship with an investment bank or similar firms (other than a stockbroking firm) and/or enrol for the CFA. ICAN or ACCA is also good.

CIS is useless. Don't be deceived by the CIIA route. They have stopped conducting this exam regularly. Less than 10 Nigerians have it since 2010 when it first came to the country, nobody ed out of 69 candidates that ed for the exam that year. Most of these folks have moved on to acquiring the CFA. Even one of the CIIA holders I know had to write CFA to remain relevant. In fact, CIS staff themselves are trying to discourage interested CIIA applicants through subtitle means; after collecting their money of course.

The eggs look yummy 😋. Like mother like daughter.

I pray she won't become a toxic woman like Jeon, Jennyclay and Siofra.

Please continue to encourage her.

Where were the stupid students when ASUU went on strike for better funding of Universities? They were all insulting lecturers. Thank God I have gotten my own degrees. Enjoy your increment.

It has since been proven that the woman actually graduated from NOUN with LLB degree in LAW.

In the video, Enenche said he knew as soon as she started sharing the testimony that she was lying. He obviously judged the innocent woman by her looks and speech. This shows that Enenche was walking in the flesh not in the spirit. What a disgrace for the pastor and his blind congregation.

Most of these pastors are ordinary charismatic men. God has left majority of them a long time ago.
