Using the activities of Hitler as a yard stick in politics is an insult to democracy and the people of akwaibom

Still you are a governor in Nigeria

Flets:
The earlier this government understands that force should be the last option.... the better

Shiites parade have grown despite force
The Biafran Agitation has grown despite force
Niger Delta militancy grew despite force until govt included avengers on payroll

As a matter of fact, Nigerian forces have never won any confrontation or forceful opposition on its own..... not bokoharm nor Fulani herdsmen

Finally, no forces in hell can stop an idea whose time has come. If Nigeria has smart leaders, this is a huge Opportunity to right the wrongs.

Nigeria has never been this divided along ethnic and religious lines since the end of civil war...
Buhari has taken this country at least 50 years backward.

I'm not in support of the arrests on these women but the continuous online warnings without actions by this Emma Powerful of a guy is making me to see him as a joke.

Where was he when Ganduje came to collect the title that was given to him in Abia after all the online rants?

One thing I've noticed, the more u talk or warn without taking actions, the more your value reduce because action speaks louder than words.

Split this God forsaken country.. assholes everywhere, we are never one! we are never United! let's stop pretending and forcing unity against our wishes.. The yorubas hate the igbos, the igbos hate the skull mining ewedu afonjas, like wise the almajiri and the block sucking herdsmen.. Useless country.

Over 2 million of your tribesmen have rotten in hell already. Do n join them, drag your household along thanks

Babcock University, good for you!

But this will not end here! The guy should be arrested ASAP!

I mean what moral right do we have to accuse South Africans of Xenophobia when we are worse

Just as I was discussing with a Nairalander few days ago, any governor that will not employ Nigerians because of ethnicity also shouldn't be a Nigerian such person/people doesn't deserve our vote!

We preach about unity in this country but we don't practise it!

BabcockUniv:
The attention of Babcock University has been drawn to a story titled"Babcock University staff goes on a rant; Says Igbos Should Have Been Wiped Out During the Biafran War".
The story is credited to one Alaba Ajibola.

This is to inform the public that the said Ajibola is neither a staff of Babcock University nor does he represent the University in any way whatsoever. The said Ajibola was once a staff of the Institution but his engagement with the University in that capacity ceased long ago. There is no longer any relationship, whether imagined or real, between the said Ajibola and Babcock University. Therefore, the University dissociates itself from him and his comments.

Babcock University's pride is in its diversity of people and cultures. It is a global institution, and accommodates people, without bias, from every continent of the world.This confers upon the University its mark of uniqueness and identity as a global brand. The Institution celebrates the diversity of humanity because it gives a sense of beauty, and an acknowledgement of the power of God, the creator of all.

Babcock University values every and all persons irrespective of creed, culture, race, religion, and political persuasions.

The noble achievements of the University have been made possible by the the contributions of the exceptionally gifted and immensely great individuals from the different parts of this country, and those from other nations of the world, who have found joy working in the University.

Whereas Babcock University believes in freedom of expression, and places premium on autonomy and responsibility, it is never supportive and does not wish to accede to any divisive tendencies intentionally or unintentionally couched, and are capable of inflaming the embers of discord, or potentially devised to dismember the nation.

The University wishes to thank members of the public for their continued faith in the Institution, and for believing in it as socially responsible.

The University will continue to promote love, unity, excellence, integrity and accountability in all it does.

Yours sincerely,
Joshua Suleiman,
Director, Communication and Marketing, Babcock University, Ogun State, Nigeria.

Fierce11:
Damage control.. so those students that claimed that the said man is still a staff are probably silly abi?
babcock should accept responsibility and deal with the staff accordingly

kaorama:
This is not a reasonable step in any way. The statement sounds almost like a parable, without any intention to unmask the identity of the deluded miscreant. A serious institution would have given a clearer picture of what relationship the said Ajibola had with Babcock university and the exact date the relationship was terminated. I think Babcock is being economical with the truth and this doesn't speak well of them.

Since it is a joint session between the senators snd house of reps let's see how oshiomole and his minions will take their impeachment madness to the very important inec budget screening.

Apc game is to change the Senate leadership before their September primaries whose outcome will see a lot of defections by the members .

Oshiomole can be in charge of apc but saraki is in charge of the senate and will continue to flog the anti people party merciless.

godliman:
I never knew oshomole is this shameless and lawless until now he reminds me of Obj's do or die desperado politics. It stinks.

themomentng:
Some eminent lawyers yesterday came down heavily on the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, over his recent utterances since he assumed his new position.

Specifically, among the utterances lawyers raised issue on was the one credited to Oshiomhole saying that, “No Court will save Saraki.”

The lawyers, who spoke, noted that such statement was a sign of disrespect to the nation’s judiciary.

They, however, reminded him that he cannot be a judge in his own case.

Oshiomhole had been calling for the resignation of the Senate President Bukola Saraki since he defected from the APC to the PDP.

He had stressed several times that Saraki ought to vacate his seat, having left the party on which platform he assumed the seat of the Senate President.

He had also threatened that the APC senators will impeach him and that no court can save him.

Commenting, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Chief Mike Ozekhome and a Vice President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Mr. Monday Ubani, both cautioned the APC national chairman to be wary of his utterances in his party’s quest to ensure the impeachment of Saraki.

Oshiomhole had while addressing APC’s caucus in the National Assembly on Tuesday stated that no court could save the Senate’s President.

However, in his reaction, Ozekhome, disclosed that the APC national chairman ought to know that court’s decision on any matter is final and no executive fiat can override it.

He said: “A court’s decision on any matter is final. No executive fiat can override it. The tripartite doctrine of separation of powers is found in Sections 4 (Legislation), 5 (Executive) and 6 (Judiciary), of the 1999 Constitution as amended. None of these arms of government can act in disobedience of the other.

“That doctrine of separation of powers was mostly popularised in 1748 by a great French philosopher, Baron de Montesquieu. Once a court gives a judgment, all governments, persons and authorities must obey it. Not to do so is a ready recipe for anarchy and chaos. Such torpedoes democracy and conscripts the democratic space.”

In his submissions, Ubani urged Oshiomhole to be circumspect in his approach to issues.

He said: “Mr. Chairman, note that I am not a fan of Mr. Saraki and I have not hidden my disdain for his personality and activities in the upper chamber, but try to be wise in some of your utterances and note that we have intelligent and educated people in Nigeria. We are not all fools, for God’s sake.

“The four ways for Mr. Saraki to leave the present seat as required by law are (1) Death (2) Resignation (3) Dissolution and (4) Impeachment by two – third majority of the entire membership of the Senate, approximately 73 senators. See Section 50(2) (c) of 1999 Constitution as amended:

“Section 50 (1) says, There shall be:-(a) a President and a Deputy President of the Senate, who shall be elected by the members of that House from among themselves; and

(b) A Speaker and a Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, who shall be elected by the members of that House from among themselves.

(2) The President or Deputy President of the Senate or the Speaker or Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives shall vacate his office –

(a) if he ceases to be a member of the Senate or of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, otherwise than by reason of a dissolution of the Senate or the House of Representatives; or

(b) When the House of which he was a member first sits after any dissolution of that House; or

(c) If he is removed from office by a resolution of the Senate or of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, by the votes of not less than two-thirds majority of the members of that House.

“The present status though not confirmed hundred percent in the Senate is, PDP 49 senators and APC 52, the remaining for APGA and ADC.

“So, I ask, how will the APC senators as presently constituted impeach Mr. Saraki, the Senate President? Is Mr. Oshiomhole planning an impeachment that will not comply with the strict provisions of the ground norm, the 1999 Constitution as amended?

“How do they intend to muster the 73 senators as required by law or is he engaging in intimidation, bullying and noise making which reduces his personality before right thinking members of the society?

“The “monster” Saraki was created by APC in their naive political engineering and I think the best approach would have been to handle him with wisdom and intelligence in order to get the best out of him in the interest of Nigeria.

“With the present configuration, the Senate cannot also impeach Mr. President, it is impossible legally. They can’t even try it,” Ubani said.

Another Abuja based lawyer, Kingdom Okere, noted that in the constitution which calls for amendment, it did not specifically provide that the presiding officers shall be elected from the majority political party.

“It is just a matter of convention, harmony and understanding among members of the majority party in both chambers that presiding officers had emerged from majority political party over the years,” he stated.

babyphaze07:
It is known fact that the present govt has disrespect for the rule of law. Since they are 21st century illiterate, they do not under the constitution. All Nigerians need to do is wait for Oshiomole and his cronies on how they will impeach Saraki constitutionally.

hakeem4:

Sharpshooota:

HungerBAD:

Where is Nnamdi Kanu?

I am starting to become curious about him too.

Where exactly is he hiding?i don't believe for once that he is dead or the Military has him locked up anywhere for one single reason, and that is, there are Easterners at the top Echelon of the Nigeria Military, who would have leaked his death or whereabouts, one way or the other to the press with complete details.

Shame to Nnamdi Kanu for hiding, and making women do the job he swore to give his life for.

It is a shame that in Owerri, nay the East, in the year 2018, it is the women that is leading the struggle and the men are hiding behind their curtains, or behind their keyboards on Nairaland, peeping at the struggle from afar.

Shame to all IPOB members too in Nigeria that have all gone into INVINSIBLE MODE and VOICEMAIL.

Lead this struggle from the Front you cowards.

Nigerian journalist and Editor in Chief of the Weekly Source Newspaper, Jones Abiri has been released from detention by the Department of State Services (DSS) on August 15, 2018.

Jones Abiri was arrested by DSS officials on July 21, 2016, in Bayelsa State, and was accused of being a militant, who is interested in blackmailing international oil companies for pecuniary gain.

Ever since his arrest, Jones Abiri has been denied access to his wife and five children! In fact, he was never allowed to see anyone. Frankly, many Nigerians thought he was dead until the DSS produced him in court in 2018!

The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), as well as several other bodies and individuals in and outside the country, have been clamoring for his release, using social media advocacy.

When Jones Abiri appeared in an Abuja court in August 2018, the DSS could not bring a single witness against him, a pointer to the fact that the charges against him are trumped-up!

Should he sue the government for wasting two years of his life?
