Emmy9ite: Another tribe bashing thread! I wonder when Nigerians will grow up and see this country as one against other nations and not tribes against tribes. The attorney has the right to sue Dangote if due process was not followed, simple!

Bro I fear o, its quite alarming when I see threads like dis springing up abuses based on tribal issues. Most of all dis young nigerians here will say they r graduates, I wonder what future leaders such people will make when all dat is running tru their minds are tribal sentiments.

Nija, behold the leaders that will soon emerge........what a pity.

Na leaders like una go fail dis country completely to ground zero cos y'all so pathetic, GEJ and all dis leaders y'all complaining about are better than u imbeciles here claiming u know shit. Wen will y'all wake up and be composed n matured, am sad y'all part of dis generation. Habba!

Mr Falana!...the truck drivers don't kill, it's accident. You have to tell the FG to construct road for trucks or better still rehabilitate the existing ones...It's not the drivers of trucks that cause most of the killing, but our roads are not good..they are in a state of anomy!

Femi Falana is very right, his action is a great sign of professional competence, we should not triberlize every moves mostly this positive one by this great lawyer no matter the tribe. His SAN status is a merited one, his actions justifies his competence and bravery, he should be commended on that. A place where there is no voice for the masses is as dead as log of plantain log. Nigerians have been exploited to the wrong reasoning. Femi Falana should be encouraged and not discouraged. Keep up your good work the great one.SAN Femi Falana, its only God that rewards a good laborer.

Some nigerians thought process is evil.thousands of Dangote company trucks ply our travel routes. Some kill people on their way.dangote company should be held responsible and pay compensation to the family of the casualties,because is their truck.when they start paying compensation.they discipline their drivers and train them better.in the end it will reduce the deaths caused by their truck drivers on our highway. Carry on Femi Falana

take a screw driver, remove d nuts in ur head, then travel to Europe & see the way human rights, even animal rights are been fought for. A dangerous problem wit Nigerians, they will not support d pple dat are fightin 4 their rights till when they start dying like chickens. Then they will take up weapons & start killin d innocents. A lawless nation indeed.

Hitler's hatred for the jews started like what i'm seeing in forums like this.It stems from blaming other ethnicity for your woes and problems. And perceiving no good in their deeds. If nigerians have such deep rooted resentments of other tribes, then a large-scale genocide that will dwarf what is happening in the north is waiting to happen. God help this country.

@ Op: Falana can sue whoever he wants to sue for whoever he wants to represent. As long as it will do some good. if just a life can be saved from this then it is a worthwhile pursuit.

So much sense in all u wrote here....you will conspicuously see the minds of our young nigerians tru nairaland threads and it shows doom, chaos and complete hatred for one another. When will this people learn that we hav to see beyond tribal sentiments and appreciate one another

Its a pity cos I see no bright future in all dis.

Surely there are so many things wrong with Nigeria, If a man decides to tackle one help and encourage him, even when there are mistakes you can correct him, it will help u too. Don't feel too aggrieved by one issue and frown at someone trying to solve another. Where are our common sense? Every tribe has its own issue, don't think its the only issue. we need to start seeing and thinking objectively. The man wants to do something, all he needs is that little help from us all. Come to think of it, the difference between the ordinary and the extraordinary is that extra. The same extra hand I ask you lend a brother!!!!

Coming from someone who claimed to live in Canada and have Canadian citizenship? Even an immigrant cleaner living in any western country will give a better reply than an irredeemable tribalistic bigot like you.
Employer are responsible for the acts of their employees especially in the course of discharging their duty, also there is something called corporate social responsibility.
Falana is 100% on point.

semid4lyfe: Lagos lawyer and human rights activist, Mr Femi Falana (SAN), has threatened a legal action against the Dangote Group of Companies, owned by the billionaire business mogul, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, over alleged infringement on peoples’ rights.

While Falana disclosed that Dangote’s companies would be sued for the alleged killings of innocent Nigerians in various accidents across the country, he added that oil companies would be sued for not paying compensations to some communities where they operate.

Addressing journalists in his home town, Ilawe-Ekiti in Ekiti State at the weekend, Falana expressed disappointment on how the Dangote’s trucks have been killing innocent Nigerians on the highways without a challenge from the Federal Government.

He frowned at the way the company would deny the families of the victims adequate compensations, after killing their bread winners, describing it as a flagrant abuse of the peoples’ rights.

“It is no gain saying that Dangote companies have killed many innocent Nigerians across the country in one accident or the other.

I don’t have any grudge against any company plying its trade in Nigeria, but you cannot kill any human being and go scot free without paying compensations,” he said.

“We have received series of complaints from Nigerians about how their families are being cheated by some of these companies after their beloved ones had been killed.

“We will no longer tolerate this and steps must be taken to ensure that such families are compensated,” Falana said.

He said a team of lawyers, headed by himself and former President of Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Mr. Olisa Agbakoba (SAN) is currently fine-tuning arrangements on these barrage of litigations , which he said were intended to correct some perceived social-ills in the country.

see this ambulance chaser. why not go for the independent trailer drivers, I guess with Dangote that's where the money is.
everyday they show you who they truly are.

Mr Man u are the most foolish Nigerian. I think u should be recognised by Guiness World Records. D worst accidents in my town GBOKO, where his cement company is sited, are by his trucks. Worst still, they wont stop or go tn the Police. They phucking run away. Can u imagine how u'll feel if one of his trucks crushes ur brother's body such dat u cant recognise him, and d truck driver runs off? Haba bros, u be human being so abi u be cartoon character? No talk lyk dat again o, e no gud. Take correction. Dangote owns the trucks and his drivers(so long they work for him). Femi and Co nice BOLD step. NIGERIA SHALL BE GREAT AND BETTER.
