bloggernaija: Widow or no widow.
The instructions/rules/ law was simple enough.
Why can't Nigerians obey simple instructions?
Why do we behave like animal?

From overloaded lorries,
To drunk unlicensed driver,
To roadside traders encroaching on the highway ,
Siren blaring bigman aka stupid politicians.

The next minute ,they will start complaining about bad government disregarding the fact that the government is mirroring our own personal bad behaviour.

Poverty is not an excuse.
Neither should the law develop eyes because she is a WIDOW.

The government is doing the job it was elected to do and our
Uncivilised people are talking about MERCY .
Yes ,the language was bad
But he had to personally set an example.

MY TAKE IS THAT NIGERIANS ARE SO ISED TO LAWLESSNES THAT IT HAS BECOME THE BEW NORMAL.

NOW FOR THOSE WHO ARE IGNORANT OF THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE WESTERN REGION AND THE MIDWEST,
WIDOW OR NO WIDOW,
THIS WOMAN HAVE BEEN CHARGED TO COURT ,HEAVILY FINED AND HER GOODS SIEZED .
WHEN DID IT BECOME A CRIME TO ENFORCE THE LAW?

Sijo01:

Now that you know, ask your state governor if he's willing to adopt me. am porting out of this state asap.

JulianBond007: Here comes another deluded religious bigot! What has Jesus chasing traders in the temple got to do with Oshiomole telling a widow to go and die? Some people really need mental rehab before they comment on this forum.

James Lucia: let us always be constructive in our argument, d day was a sanitation day which every one is expected not to sell on d stipulated hours, but d widow was found hawking. remember obedience is better than sacrifice. what she did was not accident, it was planned i guess

igbeke:
quite pathetic. more pathetic is dat most APC e-warriors are already disowning him.
somtims i wonder wat life wud hv bn wud hav bn without God's mercy.

Danhumprey: On behalf of the governor of the [b]acclaimed Land of Promise, a.k.a Land of Failure,[/b]I humbly welcome you to Always Income state. I hope you enjoy your stay.

ngozievergreen: Sb shd furnish me with the link to that video

Truckpusher: The governor's choice of words was unruly,callous ,insensitive and just bad ,but the truth remains that Nigerians do not obey rules and i want to believe that the Governor isn't that daft or mad to see a helpless woman on the road side and started abusing her.

Nigerians don't like laws ,we want to live free like animals ,even the animals have rules and regulations.

I go out there everyday and i see people flouting rules as if they don't care and i'm sick of it .you all can cry ,but the message has been sent already ,it's just too bad that the words can't be justified ,but condemning the governor's action in it's entirety is equally a damaging precedent that we need to watch out for ,less we should encourage lawlessness while dreaming of sanity.

nairaarea: My dear Comrade Governor, we do appreciate your sincere attempts at keeping Edo State clean. But sometimes, a little mercy works more than brute force. You told a poor widow to "go and die, because she flouted your rules against hawking on the road? If not that I watched that video, I would not have believed it...

She begged and begged and begged... Don't forget, we all are at God's mercy.

Please temper justice with mercy in exercising your duties. Please...

May God assist you in your daily discharge of this onerous responsibility. Amen

Rev. Fr. Kevin Anetor.

freecocoa: I still don't know where you stand, Nigerians like breaking laws, I'm not arguing that, I'm focusing on this singular case.

No law was broken by the woman, someone who is serving the masses shouldn't be so callous insensitive and classless. If there's anything to learn from this video, it is that our leaders don't really care about us.

I'm actually surprised that some people see no wrong in what the ugly mofo did. If someone commits a crime, why not deal with it in accordance with the law? Instead he chose to show how inhumane he is, smh.

bloggernaija:

Heartless?
No,
I am a lover of law and order and,
There is an economic side to this argument.
What about the widow who borrowed money from loan sharks to rent a shop at a ridiculous interest rate,pays taxes and is being undercut ?
People selling illegally by the roadside are daily undercutting those inside the market and car parks.
While those in the market pay daily taxes used to build roads ,bridges etc,
Those highway hustlers just get a free lunch.
A society without enforced rules and laws will simply whither and die.
The old Wild West around Texas had vengeance laws back in the days.
You kill my father , I kill you full stop.
The laws may look barbaric now but they were good enough to enforce order.
The choice of words by the governor was bad.
All agreed .
But his action was right on the dough .
THE LAW SIMPLY HAS TO BE BLIND.
you cannot take your jagbanjatise to the middle of Times Square and trlalsfagar square and start frying akara.
MY BET IS YOUR BUTTS WILL BE FRYING THAT AKARA IN LONG ISLAND PRISON BEFORE THE END OF THE NIGHT.

The lack of law and order is responsible for the present state of the country.
People pick and chose which laws to obey and which laws to break.
What is the difference between this woman and igbinedion.
If you are confortable with this civil crime ,then you are confortable with more serious crimes.
This is the very reason why igbinedion walked away with a slap on the wrist and ,
You are advocating the same for this woman.
You know the reason why nigeria is shitas?

YOU

Kanwulia: If you were in a CIVILIZED foreign country. . . will you flout the laws of the land and tell the world you are a 'WIDOW'?
Who gives a phock if you are a widow or JESUS CHRIST?
In as much as I do not like A.O. in his infinite UGLINESS multiplied by the highest power. . . .NIGERIANS SHOULD BE DISGRACED MORE OFTEN TO THE GREATEST DEPTHS OF HUMILITY(if they are capable of such feelings)

All I can see is the over-killing of a fly with a sledge-hammer. . . . !

Only in a 10TH WORLD dungeon of a country will you see such low-grade theatrics!
Boring SHYTE!!!!

O HOLY-NWENJE REVEREND. . . do yAsEf a favor and SHAT THE PHOCK UP!

cramjones:


This is why there is little hope for development in Nigeria. We all want Nigeria to be like America, the UK and other developed nations. If everyone claim to be widows and hawk on the streets against the laws what do you want the governor to do? Have mercy based on excuses.? Granted his statements were not the best...but wait a minute we all flip out when we are angry. Nigerians are too religious bring...everything they will quote the scriptures or Quran. A society never develops like that. This has nothing to do with Mercy. Your Bible tells you to obey the law and respect authorities. If we continue like this Nigeria will Never develop.

i ask the question what do Nigerians want. You call for the arrest of a corrupt minister (odua) people say it is ethnic victimization. El-Ruai demololishes houses that are blocking sewers and are out of the master plan...Nigerians call him devil...Nuhu Ribadu jails proven corrupt people, they say it is political witch hunt. I have no doubt that Nigerians deserve the kind of leaders they have...For 90% of Nigerians to crucify Oshiomole for simply trying to make his state rid of all the rot and road side hawkers that stains the beauty of the city. Your open letter is nothing but rubbish! We should learn to obey the law and leave sentiments or widow or widower aside. We can't continue like this as a nation or the Nation is destined to sink!

Mr man, you don't understanding the point people are making here, why should a governor who is a
leader say such a barbaric word to that woman, Go and die. That is to tell u that the governor is irresponsible
and that he don't care about, whatever happen to the people he governor. I expect him the governor to instruct
the officer to find a better alternative for the woman immediately he heard that the woman is a widow.
