Omodua:
He is Ijaw from ESA ODO,river line area of the state. They bear such names.
He is not original Yoruba protegy.

Stop saying what you don't know with so much confidence. Lucky Aiyedatiwa is not Ijaw and he's not from Ese-Odo. He's an Ilaje man from Ilaje LGA in Ondo state. Ilajes are a Yoruba sub-group both culturally and linguistically. There are some of them who are indigenous to Lagos state too like former governor Ambode. They trace their origin to Ile-Ife like other Yoruba sub-groups. The only truth in what you said is that he's from a riverine community which makes them traditionally fishermen. They only share close affinity with Arogbo-Ijaws and Ijaw-Apoi (Sowore's place) in Ese-Odo LGA, the Ikales in Okitipupa and Irele LGAs and Itserikis in Delta state.

If accepting gifts is bribe,then the UK police should also be charged for same. They accept donations, attend private parties with gifts given, the childrens attend well funded government school on scholarship from private citizens, etc. If she is corrupt,trace her act with bypassing process, money launding, theft, etc.

Do you even know the difference between a gift and a bribe? Even when it was clearly written in the article that she accepts these your so called "gifts" in exchange of issuing oil and gas contracts to her "gifters", you're still asking this kind of question. Why are Nigerians like this?

UniIorin, UNN, Uniben and other reputable schools are playgrounds abi? Your hands were faster than your slow-to-boot brain I guess.

You better remove Uniben from that list.

igwebuike01:
These are yorubas who have travelled and mixed up with Igbos

Are you implying that for a Yoruba person to do anything commendable, he needed to have mixed with Igbos first? That's a very shallow thinking and mentality.

Keyamo is Yoruba
Things we learn on Nairaland everyday.

Even the Ewedu is a world class food and a delicacy for kings of Egypt.

Keyamo is half Yoruba. His mum is from Ogun state.

this one Anambra news is flying up and down on frontpage 😆😆😆 I hope another election is not around the corner oooo 🤪🤪

Something that happened in NKWELLE EZU NANKA but someone hurriedly tagged ONITSHA to grab attention 😆😅🙆

(Operatives stormed the orphanage home located at 33 Nkwelle and sealed the home.?)

Abeg make una no mention me ooo 😜 I'm not feeling well

#Kudos to our own HON IFY OBINABO

Woman that made me love listening to news during her days at ABS

Kudos to Hon Ify Ibinabo for what exactly please? Give honours to the person whom it is due to, which is the investigative journalist Fisayo who did the job of Ibinabo for her. She had no choice than to spring to action after Fisayo had made the story viral.

This is an attack on freedom speech.

Can't we hold the judiciary accountable any longer?

Is it a lie that all eyes are on the Judiciary?

This government is getting sadder by the day.

Saying all eyes are on the judiciary is good enough, but going further to dictate to them the kind of judgement you want isn't holding them accountable but clearly blackmailing them emotionally. What message does the words: "Well meaning Nigerians are in court to reclaim our mandate" as written in those billboards pass across to the judiciary? They're telling the judiciary to upturn the results of the election.

The billboard didn't say they should declare Obi as winner. So, how did you see it as a threat to the government?

Is your conscience pricking you that tinubu was rigged into office?

What do the words: "Well meaning Nigerians are in court to reclaim our mandate" as written in those billboards mean to you?

jaxxy:


judgement going against anyone isn't the issue bt the judiciary doing the right thing and following the constitution.

all eyes on the judiciary mean the judiciary should follow the law and justice by following the law.

that is not a threat

They didn't stop at saying all eyes are on the judiciary in those billboards. They clearly stated what would be acceptable to them only from the judiciary - which is reclaiming their mandate. They're clearly dictating to the judiciary. That's a threat.

Angelfrost:


Preempt?!!... Is it that you don't know what that word really means?!!

What is preemptive or blackmailing about urging a critical sector of the nation's leadership to be incorruptible and honest?!!

These words were clearly written in those billboards: "Well meaning Nigerians are in court to reclaim our mandate". This is not a call to be incorruptible and honest, but rather dictating to the judiciary the kind of judgement they're expecting from them, which is to upturn the results INEC declared. That's a clear emotional blackmail.

Bunkbars:
in this country, called Nigeria. I have come to the belief. That there is no smoke without fire.

If it's not true, give evidence. It's simple. The truth will definitely set you free.

All this use of DSS will generate alot of hate, which is unhealthy for the unity of this country.

Worst was said, to Goodluck, by this same APC, and Goodluck never used the military or DSS to intimidate anyone. Even once, he never did.

These are the same politicians treated like third class citizens abroad. Playing demigod in Nigeria.

The unity of this country is getting close to dividing. Tinubu was never voted for. Even by the yoruba youths. This is an abuse on the constitution.

Goodluck was a public servant, the President,same as Buhari and Tinubu. Did you see any of the other 2 people also arrest people because they were insulted? Definitely not. They know how these things work because they're in public service. But Fashola since 29th May 2023 has become a private citizen like you and me, and so you can't hide under the cloak of saying he's in public office to say all manner of rubbish against him without proofs. Just the same way Emeka Offor and Eniola Badmus both private citizens arrested their defamers, is Fashola entitled to do same especially for allegations as grave as these. At least the likes of David Hundeyin and Jackson Ude (the originator of this Fashola story) were smart enough to dish out their stuffs from "safe" havens, out of immediate reach from Nigerian institutions like the DSS unlike this Reporta blogger who remained here in Nigeria to defame people.

Akaegwu:
They just collected their 30k last week. Another one by next month.

At least they have 30k to show for it but you that shouted Ellu P 75 have nothing to show after doing Ellu P top to bottom. You can see the angels in Ellu P you voted as senators were there in the Senate chamber with Akpabio and never protested against the holiday enjoyment allowance but quietly collected their share. The joke is on you.

My prayer is Ecowas leaves Niger alone to do whst it wants, bcus if they return Bazoum back the people of Niger go come vex for Nigeria. Make boko haram no come double oo

What I don't understand is that Bazoum is a democratic president that was voted in because he got the majority of votes of Nigeriens. His election was not controversial like that of Tinubu in Nigeria, meaning he was fairly popular. Why are they then suddenly celebrating his ouster by the junta, as if he was imposed on them in the first place? These things aren't adding up.

Curse777:


Any university lecturer is a professor

We have two types of professor, post PhD and Lecturers

At the bolded, t's only in some places like the US this holds sway and even so, it's used an adjective for their job description just the same way you'd use teacher, tailor, mechanic etc as job descriptions but not as a former title preceding the name of the person as is the case of Okonjo-Iweala in this thread, except the person has truly attained the highest academic rank in the University which Okonjo-Iweala hasn't. She isn't a lecturer even though she has a PhD.

Since when did Okonjo-Iweala become a Professor. Same way they were addressing Chimamanda as Professor on Twitter. Address people by their correct titles please.

Mumu man. You're describing your wife as delectable now that DNA test saved your philandering ass. It's obvious you don't really see as a delectable to be cheating on her so recklessly even without protection.

Is it that this Jackson Ude guy can't be traced and made to face the law once and for all or what? Cos I don't understand how he constantly engages in these smear campaigns and defamations, and he hasn't been made to answer for any of them.

chukadiho1:
Other regions can have multiple nominations but none from the south east... issoright!

I can't blame Tinubu for that. How would you give multiple slots to a people that outrightly reject and hate you? He knows even if he gives the South East 20 slots, they'll still hate and malign him. So what's the point? Any reasonable person will consolidate on the places where he's accepted, won or got meaningful votes, which is why he especially gave multiple slots to the North West zone. It's simply politics of consolidation.

As seen in Osun state.
We love deceiving ourselves because of emotions.

Oyetola did his best in Osun. He wasn't a failure even though he was set up to fail by his idiotic predecessor Aregbe.

Agbadorians were expecting list of Technocrat, not knowing that amoda ministerial list is an appreciation list, and they're expecting Nigeria to be great.

I'm not a tribal bigot, Amobode name should have been on that list if this man was serious.

Umahi should resign from the Senate and face his ministerial job, or better still tell the APC Nigeria president to give someone else who he deem fit his ministerial slot.

Imagine Metawalle and Oyetola a minister?
Who curse Nigeria self?

What exactly is wrong with Oyetola being a minister please? A man who distinguished himself both in private and public service isn't good enough to be minister?

ehikwe22:

Don't even go on Obi's own. His own cover ten pages. Or you're going by the third class fabrication by Agbadorians?

Don't make me laugh please. The only degree Obi has is the Second Class Lower in Philosophy he got from UNN. The 10 pages you're talking about are simply those short courses and certificates from those 2 weeks - 2 months trainings anyone with money can enroll in those Havard Business School, Oxford Business school bla bla. Nothing special about that. Even Dino Melaye have those.

Igbos dey drag Lagos

Fulanis dey drag Kwara MC Oluomo state

Before end of 2024 you go hear say na Rivers State people get Ogun state

How many states come remain for Ronu people

But you’ll never see them say a word to Fulanis because them know say if them try am Fulani is ready to sack all of them from SW

If na Igbos now their peniss go stand

You've made yourself a nuisance on this forum with your constant anti-Yoruba posts even when there's no need for it, like this thread. Make yourself useful before it's too late.

I don't even get the idea of men being coaches in female football. It should be an all-female affair, from players to referees to coaches.

LifeofDream:

Your answer is nonsense with no evidence but hearsay...
I'm a non-yoruba and voted in Lagos during the governorship election, all this your identifying of Igbo with healthy a d wealthy looking is no where to be found... I only heard online and no where else..

Did you vote in Lagos during the governorship election?
Be truthful, I hate lies and dishonesty...

As in ehn, you can imagine the very senseless post saying Igbos are identified through looking fresh and wealthy. Very funny. What a stupid fallacy.

Imagine giving only Ogun state 3 ministerial slots. That's serious.

linearity:
Crime pays after all, that is what this judgment is portraying here.

She sold the video defaming her for N200k and she after conviction, she was given the option to pay N150k, she essentially made a profit of N50k, which represents 25% gain on investment, not a bad investment at the end of the day.

Something is definitely wrong with that judge to give such stupid judgement.

DevilsEqual:
The name sweet me

Na her brother Jail am

Would like to see more people get same treatment

There's nothing sweet about the news. She's not going to jail. They gave her option of fine of a mere 150k. This is just a slap of the wrist, and they will continue.

Jagaban, even though I supported your emergence, you have no moral standing to start preaching about subsidy removal. It was you who for political reasons frustrated efforts by then President GEJ in 2012 to remove the subsidy you're calling fraudulent now. Imagine the amount of money from the subsidy scam that would have saved since 2012 till now and want it could have achieved for this country. Instead you led people on the streets to frustrate that patriotic gesture by GEJ. The least you can do first is to publicly apologise to Jonathan and Nigerians for your earlier stance on subsidy but you pretended like you did nothing wrong and you're preaching to us now how subsidy is scam and has to go.

I know stupid Access bank will not copy things like this.

BAZ001:
which one be northern petrol marketers ? Tribe go finish us for dis country ?
Is this another form of subsidy or stealing
250billion to transport petrol how much come be d petrol itself

Agbado president is in for it, cabals or northerners will show him shege banza too.
He thinks dis is Lagos

As in ehn, the stupidity and division is too much. They already have an umbrella association IPMAN. Why then do they have to fragment it into Northern whatever nonsense.
