Today you are all free to rant about anything concerning Nigeria that really pisses you off.
Is your governor not getting it right ?Report them here...come on,lets hear about it!
What is not working at all for you where you are at?spill!
What do you think about anything and everything concerning Nigeria?healthcare?the roads?
Isn't it rather demeaning for the Nigerian customs at the point of entry into Nigeria,to unzipping people's bags and search,don't we have scanners?arrrrgh!
*I am just appalled that getting a good Education for children in Nigeria is so expensive and gets worse at the University level.....what happens to the children of poor parents?I am so appalled that the government does not know that equipping the youth of today with a sound education is securing the future for sound and educated leaders and not the money miss road leaders ruling us now.......ruling and embezzling to secure their children's financial future.....
ReplyDeleteI live outside Nigeria but the problems give me serious headches anytime I analyse them. I always say I give up and will stop discussing the multitude of Naija problems but I just can't. I just tire. Where does one begin? Every little thing is a problem in Nigeria.
Y do u think about it? Its only gonna make u old on time
DeleteU've said it all,u can die of hypertension if u wanna think abt d many problems in dis country. All I wanna beg gov uduaghan of delta state is to plssss work on d roads I warri that was dug in d course of fixing pipe borne water that we Neva saw,especially airport junction and Jakpa juntion,its causing huge traffic

DeleteI'm ranting against the average Nigerian who doesn't do anything to make things better but instead complains. I'm ranting against you (you know yourself) that usually throws your gala wrapper on the street after eating. I'm ranting against you that cannot even send your housegirl to a public school. I'm ranting against men that take advantage of girls and demand sex in exchange for employment. I'm ranting against Stella's friend that ran the red light last week and then complained that the policeman wanted a bribe. I'm ranting against Nigerians who don't read their bible but swallow everything their pastor tells them. I'm ranting against all you blog readers that tap into the anointing of corrupt officials.

Deleteif you are poor in naija u r automatically an offender
ReplyDeleteIm not going to rant because I believe strongly in the word of God that when others say ther's acasting down I will say there's a lifting up.Nigeria bad Nigeria bad yet people are building mansions and buying brand new cars straight from manufacturers shelf before they are even launched in Nigeria.My dear readers choose where u want to belong.Instead of ranting im giving thanks to God.I am eating of the good of the land.
Delete@anon 9.24, you are one of the major problems of this country. Defining a problem doesn't dilute your faith. The pple you mentioned buying mansions and cars are just about 10 percent of the population. What about the other 90? Don't they deserve better? "Choose where you want to belong"?!
DeleteMy dear, the poor doesn't have a choice in Nigeria
Hmm.. Where do I start from?? Abia state Governor T.A Orji is the worst governor Abia state has ever seen since our so called "democracy" evrythin is goin from bad to super bad!! Its such a pity, d teachers' salaries in both primary and secondary schls r not been paid, always increasing the tuition fees for the university students and yet nothing is happening!! Using state funds for personal gains, bad roads, dirty environment, d list is endless!! May God help Abia State!!
ReplyDeleteI concur. Where does one begin? In fact can someone PLEASE tell me what is good and positive in Nigeria? Please, it's that bad!
ReplyDeleteSadly I gave up on the country a long time again. You see the problem with Nigeria is not just the leaders; the followers also are corrupt. Ask them the teachers, bank workers, okada drivers, doctors,pastors etc are all compromised.
ReplyDeleteUntil accountability becomes their watchword and punishment becomes the norm for erring offenders, Nigeria and Nigerians will remain the same: corrupt, evil, unexposed, hypocritical, misinformed.
After my company started owing us salary for four months at a stretch, I stopped blaming the people for being corrupt. Our environment encourages corruption. Without corruption some people will die of hunger and worry. As I speak them never pay us for August sef and we go to work everyday, we are expected to be punctual, dedicated and honest. Hmmmm
DeleteIf I start ranting today ehn,i will not finish coos the things pissing me off about naija are too many!infact everything!
ReplyDeleteAbeg make I go chop first,i dey come.....opens sardine #u see now!sardine fish has suddenly reduced to two lean looking fishes and d oil dat used to garnish it is so terribly mixed with water!dats naija for u,no quality control nor price control on things!wonder what SON is doing!??what d hell!
Btw I had 1000 things to rant about,this Only made no 1001!

Lmaoooo! I just noticed that sardine has reduced too! Omo, it made me sad mehn
DeleteMy own grievance is with PHCN!! why can't we have steady light for crying out loud?!! If that's d only thing a president does for his whole tenure. I won't complain. D next one can den come and take care of another "rant" that the "anonymous" on stella's blog feel shld be addressed.
ReplyDeleteThe issue of education doesn't affect the government because they've become the elite class. They embezzle and send their kids abroad to school. Take the strike for example, most of them aren't affected na. Their chudren dey overs! God help us. And for parents who struggle to give their kids the best, may God surprise you all.
ReplyDeleteWe've all become local government chairpersons. Providing light, water, health care for ourselves in a system were we are taxed. If person no get money e go just die throway.
The Governor of my state is weak! With his useless voice. No action.
If person wan rant about Nigeria ehn,Im go just run mad....wetin person wan even talk about again when ASUU and federal govt dey carry university education and the future of Nigeria play suwe? When u finally finish your four year course that mind you took about six years cos of strike,to come get job na waya...u come manage get Job na to begin wake up by 4 so as to beat hold up n bad road.some places in dis Lagos ehn...d day way rain go fall na die na to get standby boat way go carry u across. We just dey look our Oga at the top dem
ReplyDeleteAm tired of unemployment so am about to relocate to europe tanks to my sister and her husband anyway am running away from unemployment 4 gud bye bye Nigeria europe here I come
ReplyDeleteI'm so suprised that Jonathan is doing nothing about bunkery....jeez....shell used to drill like 500000 barrels a day and when it is combined with other oil firms, nigeria produces a minimum of 1.2 million barrels a day. Now, all of them joined together doesn't produce up 2 500000 barrels.....My elder brother is a geoscientist with shell and has been there for several years. He told me that the russians stay on the high sea waiting to buy the oil....and these bunkers actually go with security, the nigerian police and army.......its alarming that people are making money while the country is getting poorer..........now, I am so angry.........
ReplyDeleteNa from bunkering him n his wife people dey take chop na.
DeleteChaiiiiiiiiii.... Crying for my country
DeleteHmmmmm. That's where they make the billions. There is no hope for this country.
Delete#dont not doesnt#
DeleteIts so tiring
Nigeria is a fucked up country .... What else does the government want to hear that they haven't already been told a million times? Its all in Gods hands

ReplyDeleteHuuu! Na God's, not Gods, abi your God with capital "G" na plural?
DeleteIt is the PROBLEMS in NIGERIA that makes us WHO WE ARE. SURVIVORS!
ReplyDeleteSo...
Let our Leaders continue to steal!
Let our Planes continue to crash!

Let ASUU continue to strike!
Let our Armed Robbers continue to Rob!
In short, Let Things continue to Fall Apart!
But No Shaking! WE GO STILL SURVIVE!
Abeg keep quiet there! Life shouldn't be so hard
DeleteMy own issue is with fashola...I love what he is doing o bt he's nt taking d right steps in doing it..he wants to turn lagos in2 london by taking out hawkers, okada riders, keke( in some part of lag).....e.t.c without providing an option for them....in europe, d poor ppl r taken care off to an extent, they cld do 2shifts job nd make money even d elderly have allowances...so things are put in place for them, so him coming nd taking away this and that without an option for them is a very wrong way to go........like som1 said, " 4 9ja, all their law na to favour only rich man while the poor man suffers"
ReplyDeleteCan you hear yourself talk? Let them go back to their villages! Very soon we will be importing tomatoes.. this so called hawkers are the ones who pick/steal phones in traffic, and are armed robbers @ night!
DeleteFashola can not take care of them. I was robbed twice in traffic by the so called okada riders. They should go back to the village.

DeleteMy Governor is the most useless old prick there is in this country. Governor of Ebonyi state. Nothing has come out of that man.
ReplyDeleteAs for Nigeria, the problem that I wish can be solved asap is this power issue
Elechi na correct akpa amu
DeleteI am just annoyed over the fact that to get a job after university degree,you have to get work experience,where do they expect us to get work experience after nysc?it just baffles me a lot.This is a major problem in Nigeria
ReplyDeleteThe Nigerian uniform men and women that are so rude and aggressive! When you arrive the MMA the untrained and very rude custom men and women who will insist you open your already very full luggage! What kind country is this!!!
ReplyDeleteStella were I wan for start? Make I relax with my vodka waiting for comments to roll.
ReplyDeleteI hate the roads especially the ones on the mainland! My car is really feeling it bcos I work @ the island. I go & come back every working day. It's really stressful! Electricity is another annoying thing. God help Nigeria
ReplyDeleteThis one I'm going to write is more than ranting,this one is lamenting
ReplyDeleteGosh y are guys fucking liars,I met this guy at a friends party summer last year in london I came back to nigeria we cntinued talking and all he seemed like a sweet guy,he told me he did his bsc in uk and he was currently in London business school, and he was worried about relcating and all, we chated everyday about everything we planned how I'd take him around and make him feel comfy in lagos.....he said he was looking for a serious girlfriend I wasn't interested but he seemed really serious so I kept my options open.
Fastforward to june this year he comes back
Still d perfect gentel man
He took me out on several dates
Asked me to come sleep in his house I agreed cuz I didn't really mind shagging
This guy didn't touch me o
He said he wasn't about to rush into having sex with me
Said he loved me and wanted to take it slow
At that point I let go of all my defences
I started letting him in o I fell helplesslly in love
We dated for 3 months then we finally had sex o......
It was egg he fried...didn't last 3 seconds
But since I really like him I was inderstand and all we talked about it and he said he will improve
One day I met an old secondary school friend of mine and we were just gisting and he asked if I had a boyfriend I showed him my boos picture o
That's how story started he knew the guy from uni........which uni? Unilag!!!!
Can u believe it I was shocked I didn't even believe o
I called my boo asked him
He laughed about it. And said it was a lie
This my friend showed me his graduation picture o...
Then d worst part is that I started investigating and found out that he had a girl friend of 5 years that's not in nigeria. I'm really pissed off o....asin wtf y all d lies is it ever that serious andd bastard can not even knack o.....I'm just pained I didn't get anything out of d relationship.....not love not money not sexualy satisfaction rubbish.
I wish I could deal with him
That's how I met an old friend one
Sorry ur composition skill is poor.
DeleteI live in Nigeria,i just got married,we are an average family.But am scared of the price of school fees for my future children and how we will manage our lives.My neighbour pays as much as 180 thousand Naira for her little boy per term.What will happen to us?
ReplyDeleteEyah!
DeleteAm nt even married but I worry abt dis tins 2.
U shld ask God for favour, in getting good payin jobs for u n ur patner.
Its well!
ooh i get angry when i realize, its a who know man go get work mentality. leaving well qualified youths jobless, youths whose only reason for not being employed is not knowing a prominent person or having the right connection..... my heart bleeds, God bless Nigeria! I refuse to condemn my country, for i know God is still with us however the rulers decide to rule this country.
ReplyDeleteN.B: Love u Stella, cudos!
Madam Stella we no get light,our roads are bad. Each time I'm coming back from school,I always pray for miracles to happen so that jerhothere won't be a heavy traffic. Adjerho
ReplyDeleteThank you Stella for this post o. I will really like to talk about Nigeria customers at the port of entry to not only open bags but they also steal from those bags! It has happened to me before after I have passed through other four int airport with my bags intact please help us to beg them to stop stealing
ReplyDeleteMadam Stella we no get light,and our roads are bad.Each time I'm coming back from school, I always pray for miracles to happen so that the traffic won't be heavy. Adjerho
ReplyDeleteHmmm... I saw this and thought "Perfect! An outlet to rant about my employer who has still not paid October salaries but keeps sending work and the sheer injustice of his politicking junkets flying in private jets around the country when I have to fend off calls from people expecting their salaries and bill payments and literally have less than N1k in my purse right now" but then I remembered God's words about being thankful in ALL things and actually found reasons not to rant. Well, instead of ranting, I am thankful. Thankful for life, good health, sound mind, the gift of a good man who upholds me and never always wants to make me happy, a great healthy family, I am even thankful for my job, for my boss, his lovely nice wife who buys gifts and souvenirs for me whenever she goes on holidays and who reached out to me when I suffered a sad loss last year, thankful for Nigeria, thankful that in spite of the troubles and travails we encounter as a country, God has still kept us together- that is hope for a brighter future for this country, thankful for too much to start listing out here... I am truly thankful!
ReplyDeleteIf we rant from today till tomorrow, what do u think will happen.
ReplyDeletePoliticians read blogs these days or their associates and employees do, did they change?
Will they change? It gets to a point where u say I am tired like the first comment stated but at d end u just cant stop complaining and do something about it.
I love my country and until we the youths decide that change for our beloved country is a must, we will always suffer and smile. So me today I will rant about we the nigerian youths that have lost hope and see ourselves as losers.
I will rant about young musicians that cannot use their voice to campaign for a better nigeria instead na to sing meaningless songs and we hopeless nigerian youths will dance to their meaningless songs.
I will complain about the youths that sit at home and complain of strike yet instead of protesting peacefully, they start indulging in despicable acts trying to get rich quick.
I will complain abound me and u doing nothing but ranting and complaining about Nigeria, we are Nigeria(ns), there is a saying that the way u lay ur bed is how u lie on it, if this old corrupt leaders always unmake the bed we lie on, is it not time we tell them how we want our beds made and show them how to make them instead of complaining and still lie in d unmade bed done by these old fools at the top.
Stella say make we rant I don talk where dey pain me.
I am sick and tired of all these Nigerians that are speaking with funny and obviously, put on accents! Let's retain our originality which makes us unique. I am also fed up of the youth who spell their names in a bastardized version. Cut it out HOLARDhAYHOR you are sounding like booboo the fool.
ReplyDeleteThe biggest problem i Nigeria right now is unemployment, d rate is so high, imagime graduates roaming the streets, no wonder most ppl turn into criminals, honestly it is not easy living in 9ja, exzept u have rich parents
ReplyDeleteI am fed up of all Nigerian deportees especially women from Italy, UZOZo's being looked down on. Some were victims of child trafficking or just unfortunate to have been at the wrong place with the immigration peeps lurking around. Stop it alright
ReplyDeleteWhere do I start from all I can say God pls help our country Nigeria
ReplyDeletenepa!!!!!!! or phcn or whatever!
ReplyDeletenigerian people are the problem. society is only a reflection of the people. individuals must change their mind set before the nation changes as a whole. naija peeps like easy way out. back door tinz.
ReplyDeleteStella u have said it all...is it d ASSU strike and all? Ok na
ReplyDeleteEarn monthly income via western union with just a click...http://MonthlyJobPay.com/?id=iheoma
ReplyDeleteI hate that having 24 hours electricity is a luxury in this country. It's so hot outside, one should at least be able to put on the AC or fan. Should I have to spend so much on diesel and inverter in this day and age? On top of it my guards who think I'm better than them will steal out my diesel n sell in d black market. Dem no know say na struggle person dey struggle to keep afloat. Fed up!
Tired of searching and low for money, all these people with big houses and 20 cars, where dem get all these money en? Do they av 2 heads? E go better in Jesus name. Do I hear an amen???
Wonu
Ngeria is so problematic. Those custom officers at the airport are thieves. They open our bags cos they want to beg for money. I don't smile with them at all. Check my bags and I bounce. I won't give a dime. They are hungry lions. They should install a camera in that filthy place.
ReplyDeletemy own na the serious odor i dey get from airport whenever i enter naija
ReplyDeletepeople of my country gats to start wearing serious roll on
Boss lady, wear a gas mask on your way in next time. Also bring 2 suitcases of roll on when next you come. Buah hahaha
DeleteI am pissed off concerning this ongoing asuu strike. It delayed me during my undergraduate studies and now it shows up again when I want to go for my masters. HaaaaAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaaa. Wish I had someone to sponsor me abroad. Anyway, I know it shall be well. All dis will be history when I become the minister of health for nigeria .
ReplyDeleteMe I'm appalled at the state of our roads, even in posh Ikoyi, they're roads with crates big enough to swallow Kia Picanto! Fashola stop making noise, you actually haven't done as much as possible for Lagos for all the noise you make. Yes roads get wear and tear, but some roads have obviously never been touched.
ReplyDeleteAlso I'm sick of this ASUU strike. These university students are the future of the nation, by the ongoing action, we're saying how we feel about the future, which is that we don't really care.
I wanted to send you one of those reader emails, but I was not sure if I was ready to receive the full wrath of your readers. Anyways, I will just make a little post here.
ReplyDeleteI am a 23 year old 'woman' that has never had a relationship and currently lives in the US. While I was growing up I always thought I was a little bit different. I was very tomboyish when I was little but I grew out of it as I became a teenager. The problem was while girls were getting breasts and having their periods, I waited and waited and waited... My parents thought I was a late bloomer and reassured me to continue waiting. Eventually at 17 my mum decided to take me a gynaecologist while we were vacationing in the US. It was revealed to us that I have a condition called Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome. It means that I look like a woman on the outside but my internal organs are that of a man and my genotype is XY. So I am essentially a man that looks like a woman. I even had to get my testes removed because of risk of cancer 3 years ago.
I have been depressed ever since then and I cannot have a relationship with anybody because I am so confused. My psychologist told me that I should choose a gender and get reconstructed towards that. But I am still not sure if I like women or men so that I can reconstruct my self towards that. Really don't know what to do..
This sounds like superstory, but trust me its real. Please be kind in your responses. Thanks
Wow! This is heartbreaking.
DeleteAll the best.
This is truly heartbreaking !!! I honestly can't imagine what you are going through.
DeleteThis definitely makes our every day problems infinitesimal . Whatever you decide, may God guide your heart . All the best , luv. I 'll say a prayer for you.
Chineke...I thank God you are not in nigeria. just do what is right and enjoy the rest of your life.
DeleteSince u have toto aka vagina u should choose to be a lady that's not hard na
DeleteHi sweetie anon, I would be lying if I said I know how you feel and then try to soothe you with sweet words but believe it hon when I say my heart reaches out to you. I can imagine what you nut be going through, conflict of emotions, personality amongst other things. However, I want you to know you are special and irrespective of what you are meant to achieve a special purpose in life, don't let nothing stand in your way. Don't ever feel intimidated or withdrawn, I know it's hard but you can do it! Consider the tons of people who have set change operations for the most selfish reasons, it's not the same with you. It's a decision nature has thrust on you, be brave to follow your heart with whatever decision you take. Trust me your family won't love you less for it, your true friends won't either and true love will surely find you as well.
DeleteAm almost certain you are doing well in other aspects of your life so don't let this one, mighty as it might seem weigh you down.
I wish I could give you a massive cuddly bear hug now and I sincerely hope you get to read this.
God bless you sweetie. Don't know if Stella would post it would have dropped my bb pin. I honestly don't have anything to offer you other than the emotional support you need to pull through this cos I know sometimes we just want to speak to someone outside of family and friends. I have had my own fair share of life's unfairness which had pushed me to the brink of suicide and extreme depression so even though it might not have been for the same reason,believe me when I say on that road you walk I have also walked. I love you honey and God loves you too. Chin up brilliant star, big hug.
Since you currently live in the USA look for support groups of those with the same condition. All the best, knowing that you are not alone helps
DeleteYour story has been on my mind since yesterday after I read it. I will only tell you that most things we deal with are in our minds. If we can tackle and align our thoughts with our desires half the problem will be solved. I will personally advice you stick with your female side as you've noted that you identify with a female down there. Breast wise you can always get breast implant surgery done as men also get stimulated via their nipples. When you meet someone serious you can tell them before any big steps are taken as having children of your womb might be difficult. But if you convincingly look like a woman, only half a pill left for the man to gulp down when you complete the story. I wish you well. I believe the God that created you foresaw your plight and still allowed you born so reach out to him to direct you with the master plan. you will have a good life. HugsXX
DeleteThanks guys for all the kind words. I really needed to hear them.
DeleteYou are beautiful and unique. We as humans get so wrapped up in being accepted by others that we lose sight of our true selves. You were created for a purpose. Please stay strong. You never know who will be encouraged by your strength. You have triumphed thus far and I am sure you will go even higher.
DeleteBtw, I am a female with excessive facial hair and I know how much that destroys my self esteem but you know what? I'm still beautiful, Ivy League educated and most importantly a Proverbs 31 woman. You can't steal my sunshine hehe. Take heart my dear :)
I think my bf is hiding something from me but I just don't know what it is n its killing me. I have always loved with all my hrt n I keep getting heartbroken......I just wish he would be honest with me
ReplyDeleteIf and only if they can resolve whatever problem about ASUU and call it off. I'm so tired of these kids, they are more like constituting nuisance everywhere and its no longer funny
ReplyDeleteSoldiers humiliating civilians, when I came 2 Naija 2 visit, u should see the way the soldier slapped my cabbie because he couldn't get through in traffic...Usless set of babaric ppl :(
ReplyDeleteStella, d day u posted eneren junction pictures en, I was just laffing @ how some1 had decieved u. Lemme start from d fact that in delta state there is no functional Govt. Weda na state o or na Local Govt. Even FG sef no dey here. In the whole of warri do u know dere is no where to dump refuse? Dere used to be Trash cans all around the city but @ d begining of this Yeah d good doctor and his advisers thot it wise to take dem off. I forgot to add dat d trash cash were maintained by desopadec. Well right now d only trash can I have seen is inside Central Hospital warri which is not supposed to be used by other pple but for clinical waste. My sister ask dem wat we should do with our dirt? Eat it? Secondly dere is no good road in warri, u cannot drive for 5 minutes and not meet a bad spot. Walter Odeli, 3rd marine gate and first marine gate used to be access roads wen warri sapele road is blocked but right now d holes dere Can swallow a Toyota Thundra not to talk of a small kia picanto.
ReplyDeleteAirport junction is another bad place d hole dere causes so much traffic but for the help of special marshals we would have died dere. Dere is another decaying spot in front of Zenith back close to Urobo college stella if u see dese places OMG. D one dat annoys me is dat there are some places that were dug and not covered properly or even tarred, d worse one of that group is d one closest to d governor's personal House @ angle park junction, d road is so bad dat d Govs convoy has to pass one way or they fill it with stonesso dat he can pass. Stella I have some pictures on my fone if u want let me know I will send them to u.
ReplyDeleteThe poor state of d road @ dat angle park axis is annoying cos it's only a stone throw from the governors residence. Two months back, I want to believe it was some mischief makers dat erected a signpost dat named d stretch of road from angle park to ogunu bridge after the governor. When I saw it,I had a good laugh cos I knew someone was trying to pass a msg across to d big head and guess what, both signpost @the beginning and end of the road were uprooted 3days later. Lol
DeleteBunch of self centered, greedy and corrupt political leaders. They are the reason for all the other problems the country is facing....epileptic power supply, kidnapping, asuu strike, unemployment........too numerous abeg!
ReplyDeleteFailed state.
I also live outside Naija but realy there is no place like home but the thought of all the numerous problems facing our beloved country breaks my heart.
ReplyDeleteA lot of us nurse the dream of relocating back home at some point with our kids. There is so much our kids can learn from home because we truly want them to be proudly Nigerians and represent it well but how is that possible?
Where do you start to tackle the problems?
The light, roads, security, infrastructure, no jobs, etc....
And I am appalled at the stupidity of our leaders who are mostly money miss roads that just want to amass All the wealth they can for themselves and their unborn generation.
Sadly they fail to realise that you could have a lot of money and still be unhealthy. Money can't buy you wealth and money can't buy you class either despite the number of mansions or private jets you have. That's the truth..
So sad...
The only problem with NIGERIA is NIGERIANS. We are so bold to complain and lament about our problems but often too scared to take drastic actions. If only we could channels the same energy used in criticing and complaining about jonathan and others and start thinking of how we can build a better NIGERIA collectively, then maybe we would begin to see the NIGERIA we all desire.
ReplyDeleteGOD BLESS NIGERIA, LONG LIVE THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC.

How can you chanel the energy you don't have ?? On an empty stomach? Take several seats pls.

moi, while in agree opening your bag for customs is so annoying its the best way forward for security in this country cos we do not have scanners to scan your luggage....trust me they have found a lot of stuff from people and have saved us more public disgrace when you travel.....
ReplyDeleteWhy do you Bloggers like to remove very hot stories just when we are beginning to enjoy them? Is it that they bribe you people? Stella you are fond of it and hour counterpart Linda too, just when I was beginning to enjoy the Karen Eloke Young's scandalous amazing transformation story, she took it off.
ReplyDeleteBloggers make una mind unasef o. Na wetin dey pain me be that.
Love u Sterra
Stupid comment alert!! Girl, you need to go to Specsavers! This is Stella's blog, not Linda. "rme"
DeleteAnon 7:30PM, you are so so stupid and silly. Stella says to rant anything that bothers you, whatever you like, Anon 3:23 did just that. He/she stated all Blogger are guilty of her rant including Stella, and went ahead to say what Linda did recently, it's like stating a fact and calling examples to buttress your point. So what's stupid about her comment? She/he ended it with 'Love you sterra", doesn't that show clearly that the person knows this is stella's blog? Wo, Yaba Left beckons on you.
Deleteam so pissed off at our aiports i could slap stella oduah right now......just came back from london and just getting out of the airplane to arrival i see 2 containers to hold water from the leaking roof.....of course the heat almost knocks you off while you go through the long traffic of immigration....it then takes you like 2 hours to get your luggage cos i hear they manually have to load the luggage on to the conveyor......then on top of that the immigration asks you what you have and then make you open your luggage when its not like you declared you were carrying food like its done abroad......meanwhile when i arrived london i found out my gold and some jewelry were missing, am guessing it must have been stolen during all the stupid checks and scattering your stuff.....
ReplyDeleteThen what the heck is with the immigration/custom officials always asking people for money? don't they collect salaries? they make you feel like you owe them a favour for doing their jobs....that pure greed and lack of shame.....there should be dignity in labour no matter how small......the minister should get her act together and make some tangible and visible changes at the airport.....remodeling my royal arse;;; when the content is rotten then painting the outside of anything is a bloody waste of our precious time.........space cannot permit me to rant on
White collar jobs have become modern day slavery . work so hard, earn so little.
ReplyDeleteWork like an elephant, eat like an ant.

ReplyDeleteSo Many WICKED INDIANS in Nigeria, they are here illegally. Ministry of Labour, immigration, NLC pls do the right thing, they come here with primary 6, live large and suffer our own people on our soil..They are slave drivers, many people have committed suicide .
ReplyDeleteSomeone asked God to give the family of the deceased the fortitude to bear their loss and i am smh..."20 students feared dead" in Yobe as a result of BH bombings, Parents wailing, friends and family members are in shock...The atmosphere is tense and the air reeks of blood of the innocent. 'For how long will God continue to give families the fortitude to bear their loss? for how long will we continue to fold our hands and watch our dear innocent ones (family member, friend, colleague, and acquaintance) perish without even knowing how they became the victim??...And most of these are preventable occurrences? then you ask yourself; what is the "commander-in-chief of the armed forces" doing about all these ugly mishap?...How did things get to this level? When are we going to really be free from these blood sucking demons? when are we going to hear the last of these; bombings,maiming, accidental discharge, bribery, looting,etc? God please give us a true captain that can help steer this sinking ship...We look unto thee alone, dear lord : (
ReplyDeletehahaha. e go beta for all them poor people.
ReplyDeleteAsuu ooooooooo........chai !!!!

My own ranting is that i am tired of all these naija boys who are willing to marry me because of what they feel they have to gain. I suffered to get my red passport
ReplyDeleteWhy should one goat just come and reap me off. Not to talk of the numerous gold diggers. That i live abroad doesnt make me a millonaire, me self dey find who go elevate me
Imagine him telling me to send him £7000 mtchewww
Where i keep am
My rant is d airport ESP arrival, if u search when going out, I understand cause ur stupid minister dd not put scanners at the airport and she's ordering for bullet proof cars that can buy her whole village, but at least spare us this useless look of stop and search when we arrive
ReplyDeleteWhat do u think am bringing from America? AK47?? Oh pls give me a break!
Electricity is always my headache, it's not that I don't v a generator but how do people survive wt such noise? Ts crazy
And Nepa coming to want to count meter for someone using prepaid is outright ridiculous cause they get so angry for not bn able to count ur meter and they curse and curse their fathers not me though
Danso drivers and their useless ways of driving, won mad ni? Even d bike riders are d most annoying!
I have so many things to rant about!
ReplyDeleteFirst, about our corrupt leaders and public officers!!!!!!!!
Second, ourselves! We Nigerians are our own problem! We complain about the society,and I ask, WHO MAKES UP THE SOCIETY? Not YOU &I?
Third, Bloggers! The double standard I see in blogs leaves me speechless! The most annoying is the pretentious and evasive bloggers! Also, the commentators who defend their idol-bloggers blindly without having an opinion of their own or reason objectively!
For one month I've not had sex
ReplyDeleteOnly one month and ur ranting, mine is 2years and 4months.
DeleteLol, mine's 1yr 4months...... Not easy but It's a decision I took when I gave my life to God.. No sacrifice is too much. Keep it up girls. Wait for ur husband to come.
DeleteStella the customs thingy is what irritates me most! After you 've used like an hr to lie or step on the box for it to close, customs here in Nigeria just open up everything for u and can't close it back.If u 've more than two or three pairs of shoe, they tell u to go pay for customs duty.If they see chocolates in ur stuffs,kiss it good bye cos they''ll beg for it till u release it to them; infact, they beg a lot! It's so embarrassing.
ReplyDeletePls can we talk abt private hospitals that do cs for pple who want to give birth even when those pple can deliver normally. cos dey want to charge more money.this is evil en I think stella shld do a post on it. I heard d owner of d big hospital along opebi is guilty.as in d man who was or is married to ex beauty queen
ReplyDeleteMoi, oloribu, shebi you said you were a billionaire? You are a real fool. See as you dey disgrace yourself. If you were a real billionaire or a billionaires wife, wetin you dey find for arrival hall? Your bags should be sent home, and you stroll out using the departure side. And of course, where are your protocol officers to meet you at the entrance of the plane to collect your passport? You are not yet balling girl! Money miss road.
ReplyDeleteMheeen.people ar vexing ooh just that the painful thn here is all these grammars,ranting and d rest are archieved to the leaders.They gv no daem fuck.
ReplyDeleteGovernor Godswill Akpabio of Akwaibom state is the most useless and unreliable governor in this country..All he does I recycle his past accomplishments.
ReplyDeleteThey will be quick to tell the world about free education and how indigenes re sponsored for different educational programs but these are all lies. Law school students are supposedly sponsored with a certain amount of money and a laptop before proceeding to their various campuses. The names were pasted months ago. As we all know, Law School has started but finds are yet to be disbursed. The most shocking is about an indigene who was the best graduating student in Uniport, our governor made so much noise about sponsoring her post graduate education up to PhD level. Her name is also on that list and she was to start the September session at Coventry university. Till now, they have not disbursed funds and I am sure she has already lost the admission.
When we the law school students went to the ministry we were told that every paper work has been done and all that is left if for the give to sign the papers authorizing the release of funds. Till now, nothing. Today he is in Abuja, tomorrow he is in Israel on pilgrimage or attending a burial or wedding or some kind of meeting that won't allow him sit his arse down in his state and take care of business. Shameless Abuja governor.
Aggrieved Akwaibom law school student.

ReplyDeleteNigeria!!! For the 13yrs I have moved out of nigeria and returned like 5x because I love it or atleast my mind convinces me that I do...As I write this I am counting down again to leave and this time for good and God willing the right thing to do. Nigeria is HARD!!! This country is so full of wealthy people so I dont understand the suffering, NEPA situation, clean water, etc! God help Nigerians and God bless Nigeria!
ReplyDelete@ Madam stella, heard from an inside source dt chevron laid off 400 staffs last week due to financial crisis in the oil sector, also heard some major multinational companies are pulling out of Nigeria for the same reason. Can you please investigate more on this matter cos i heard alot of engineers in that sector are planning to relocate to another country as the oil sector is falling apart. Once the only thing holding Nigeria is in chaos, what then is left for my beloved country? I guess its time our voices are heard in this country, this must not happen to us. No way! please help investigate on this matter. Thanks
ReplyDeleteYes, allow religion to stop you from asking for a change in society. Give unto Ceaser biko nu.
ReplyDeleteWhy the hell do I have to pay for a trolley when I get to the airport?
Why do educated Nigerians say things like "on a red shirt"? I appreciate the fact that as children you got/took whatever was handed down but surely you can engage in sore sort of personal development. if you say things like "on a bra" what will your children say? "I dranking it"? (Yes, that one gets my goat)
Why do the same people who complain about the lifestyle of the upper class, look down on you when you try to look humble, be humble and treat them with dignity? Well that fucking ship sailed a long time ago.
What happened to honesty and integrity in our society? Why are people so quick to lie and cheat and "sell out" at the drop of a hat? The same people ranting would do the same things as the people they are complaining about if given half the chance.
If anyone insults me, thunder fire you where you stand...
Why are we so quick to rain curses on total strangers? (Shrugs shoulders at this one sha)
Nosey
I had to come back to say this. Shortly after I decided not to rant, my junketing boss who was still on his junket, sent someone with the salaries. So you see people, praise and thanksgiving works even more wonders than loud aggressive prayers.
ReplyDeletePraise Works Wonders!!! Double Portion, Next Levelssssss
DeleteEXCEEDING GRACE!
