Nobody wants to say it so I’ll say it. Men are terrible at being active role models to teenage boys and young men because they think of nurturing as a feminine quality, and you can’t do that kind of work WELL without nurturing. There is no hack Nurture is time. It’s why manosphere content -those hundreds of hours of video as well as the communities (that they’re spending time on) work so well. You can’t be a role model with one lunch every 4 months.

Anybody that benefits from the current lagos status quo will pretend to be obtuse about the governments shortcomings, and I don’t just mean APC members and supporters. Contractors, compromised career civil servants and the families they support, friends who enjoy having their “person” in office for the optics and bragging rights etc can not see the upside of a 24 year hegemony being broken.

Money worship is finishing Nigeria. Like the country's social and moral fabric is SO fucked up, CHILDREN are killing, maiming, and doing fraud just to get money. And who has the right to correct them? Parents are dishonest, religious leaders are worshipping money and pandering to corrupt, disgusting, wicked political leaders who DEFINE immorality. It is insane

Another day to remind people that an emboldened, horrifically violent Lagos NURTW, poor public infrastructure, opaque state finances, and a rigged civil service (amongst many more atrocities) is the legacy of Bola Ahmed Tinubu If you want a proper audit of his legacy, find 20 children born and raised in each of the 37 local governments of Lagos state in 1999 when he took office. They must have only used public healthcare, education, transportation etc. Not one drop of private anything oh.

We are such rude, rude people.

Nigerians are not brought up well contrary to all the talk about home training. Ahn ahn Derogatory and hurtful comments on people's weight, hair, clothes, food are considered a right. Bad, bad behavior.

"Me, I must say my mind"

Terrible behaviour

Nigerians will struggle to give birth to children, struggle and use all their money to send those children to private schools since the government won’t provide good schools. The children will struggle to build something in one of the worst countries in the world to do business They will even put their country on the global map. Get adoration across the globe. Solve major problems.

Then when they’re just getting into their stride the Nigeria. government will create regulation solely to destroy the business.

Nigeria's lack of a formal welfare state harms many children. Kids who lose both parents, or have parents that cannot care for them (abuse, neglect, mentally incapacitated) are at the mercy of luck, and there is no luck for poor Nigerian children. I think about it a lot. There is no good or great society that does not make SOME sort of well thought out provision for the least of us. It shows a thoughtlessness and casual cruelty that will definitely run through society.

Imagine sitting under the spiritual authority of someone who’s thinking aligns with Trump on social issues. Look at how TBN and CBN staples that have been coming to Nigeria and Africa REGULARLY have made a mockery of their faith over Donald. So what is the truth? Is it okay to lie, cheat, evade taxes, be a slum lord, be racist, use public office for self enrichment, ignore science and place people in danger, lack tact and diplomacy, be divisive... is that Christian?

What is the truth?

Good morning

We go again to #EndSARS We need more than promises and words. We need actions.

We need the government, at state and federal levels to give us actionable timelines and deadlines on investigations and inquiry panels.

#EndSARS

That digitalisation of the NPF is a must. Before the end of the year each and every police officer in this country must be registered. Because now they are claiming “no SARS will be part of the new tactical team” how do you people know many officers across the country dey SARS? And they don’t need more time than that. No argue. It can be done

"You people are not saying what you want"
"Some of your demands will take much longer time"

We gave you 5 years, of begging and screaming to do the bare minimum, and now you want us to wait for absolute reform.

No thanks

#SARSMUSTEND #SarsMustGoNow Okay you want to pretend you don't know what to do

Simple show of good faith.

- Within the next 24 hours get every single SARS official off the streets. Every single officer must wear a uniform with their name and ID number clearly displayed

Lagos is extremely dirty. And we spend too many hours in traffic.

I’m really happy to pay for my own fucking wifi if you can keep the streets clean and expand transportation networks so I’m not spending 5 hours a day on a 1 hour round trip journey. You can’t risk sending your child to the horrible public primary school near you so you’re paying exorbitant fees for a good primary school and your baby is sitting in traffic for 3 hours everyday but the people running for office think what you care about is free fucking WiFi.
