A great development indeed.

Wish the west can also undertake same type of projects instead of war and conflicts.

Give some help and shelter services to those who can’t afford it.

When did NIMASA first get the wind about the illegal operations: last week, yesterday or just today?

Who are the other agencies of government that should know but were unaware?

Capsized Seplat Oil Rig Operating Illegally On Nigerian Waters Since 2016 — NIMASA

Wrong to stereotype a whole tribe, but do you know her statement has turned all other justices in that court to suspects for bribe taking considering her weighty allegations that bribes have been flying around? That is a serious indictment and she has to do better than just mere allegations or casting aspersions against fellow justices.

This is why she would equally be profiled as identifying with a particular political block and tribe- which she could have avoided by maintaining finesse and professionalism while remaining firm (and not compromising).

RighChannel:



It is too early to be displaying ur hatred or you lost your senses while at sleep over the night?

Dear Justice, kindly call out the SAN with some evidence with your full chest. That’s better than casting aspersions on your fellow Justices and judicial workers as though you are the only honest justice in that court.

You could have setup a string operation in conjunction with law enforcement to nail the SAN to serve as proper deterrent instead of just grandstanding and coming across as pandering to a particular block?

How do we verify that a SAN actually approached you with bribe?

It’s more of “lackadaisical & corruption”, and then perhaps mental laziness because this was preventable judging from the report.

Blacks and laziness are like 5 & 6. When you speak of maintenance culture the root cause of its lack is laziness. Blacks are very lazy....you can see the evidence of it all around you.....

That is how crime grows. They try once, get away with it and stage a bigger come back the next time.

If the airport authorities do not make good examples with those caught (such as a shoot at sight, where prisoners are hardly taken), then it becomes a bigger and never ending problem.

A better approach would be to get the desired result quietly and thereafter explain how the job got done.

This method of coming belatedly to tell us what you want to do is actually ridiculous, suggesting a lack of understanding or preparation.

At least Lagos is not igboland and may be excused especially since the attacks were not widespread, continuous or left unchecked.

In contrast, can you explain the bigger, continuous and carnage-degree of attacks by igbos on fellow Igbos and others in igbo land, and the ridiculous scenario where more Igbos continue to show more concern about Lagos where they enjoy far more safety than Igboland where their safety is almost completely eroded?

That is what the deputy speaker Benjamin Kalu is trying to make you igbos see. But I guess that must be difficult because igbos can’t claim to be victims of fellow igbos as it doesn’t fit the victim or marginalization mentality/narratives unlike when they dwell on Lagos where the so called xenophobia is more political, micro and mostly restricted in its entirety.

That is why most Igbo leaders are being called out repeatedly (including Obi) for jumping on narratives that portray victimization of igbos by others (even where insignificant) than dwell on bigger carnages or grave injustices being perpetrated by some igbos against entire Igbo race right in igboland. That there is the height of hypocrisy!

Counter this with facts, if any.

DeadCountry:
Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr Benjamin Kalu

Just look at the name and job of the fool talking. How will this fool ever talk about the yoruba xenophobe against Igbos in lagos, or believe in Biafra since he is getting peanut from his masters?

Not really. Why did she miss 3 tests in a year especially since she is aware there will be sanctions?

Or did she undertake other tests and only missed 3 in total? If so, what is the percentage of tests missed.

An haulage driver who earns a living using his license should never joke with renewing the same license, else the risk of fines and outright stop from working.

Bonjelomo:
Racism

True to an extent especially since he has demonstrated a measure of frugality that is highly needed. However, managing the federal government is a different ball game talk is free (not just cheap).

Obi may likely suffer complaints about paucity and unavailability of funds, which may overwhelm him eventually.

Intentions are not enough. You need the skill on income generation through public private partnerships, and the foreign policy directions for a reviving an ailing (and not container) economy. Tinubu is currently handling the country like a CEO or CFO who knows the nation needs to survive by staying liquid and profitable first to stabilize the economy before staff welfare takes priority. Hard choice but necessary. Else, the Sri Lanka situation happens suddenly.

mrdharkchild:
Do you know how much Nigeria will make or save if the cost of government is reduced?

That's is what Obi is coming to do, and that's why Owo-mI-Da Entiltled tribe don't want him in.

PBT is making the biggest mistake if he does not bring Dangote refinery supplies into the distribution mix in July as was promised. It will be the biggest mistake imo.

The hawks are already gathering and trying to create a racket as usual. Their target is to drive the price up as much as possible to create a price fixing cartel well before Dangote comes on board. This is because Dangote being a beneficiary will conform with their price structure.

Left to be seen…

Wait. I do not think what is meant is the literal or instantaneous anarchy but the anarchy of having future presidential aspirants (who do not have the required spread anticipated by the constitution) going ahead to play spoiler by simply gate keeping the FCT to prevent a winner from being declared. I mean look at Kwankwaso in Kano and project same in Abuja.

This is the anarchy that I think is being referred to because once it is established that FTC is a must for an elected winner to be declared, it becomes a needless and undue battle ground. It is anybody’s guess how far the politicians can go to get the required 25%.

Plus it is no longer entirely the type of democracy that is intended, since some votes are far weightier (being half of the mandate of the entire votes cast to be president) than the general populace’s. Surely a recipe for imbalance and future conflicts.

This follows a similar pattern of how the unitary system of government became the order of the day in Nigeria, when some people (General Aguiyi Ironsi, Nwafor Orizu, Nnamdi Azikiwe) sensing some initial advantage pushed and got every region unified under a unitary military government thinking their advantage will remain in perpetuity. Guess what? Things changed, and drastically too.

Today, people from the old Eastern Region leaders that established and supported the unitary system claim to be the most affected even if other peoples disagree. After all, the western region was clearly ahead of other regions before the regional system was supplanted.

Nonetheless, if we eventually agree that 25% in Abuja is to be made sacrosanct, let’s all agree and be guided so that no one claims victimization tomorrow when it is time to face the new monster of discrimination that may have been clearly avoidable from the very start.

Finally, other grounds for cancellation or disqualification are welcome if so proven in court, but not this discriminatory one!

Shalom!

LagosFirstSon:
When we say that the number of yorubas that voted for Mr Peter Obi could be more than the Igbos that even voted for Peter Obi, some Tinubu supporters will start arguing .

See what Samuel and Dr bankole amongst other true yoruba sons have to say if Tinubu is disqualified by the tribunal court which is expected to pass judgement any time from now.

I think the strategy maybe to Build-Run-Transfer, which is usually a faster Route to market strategy for development that serious nations use.

The important thing is to ensure that there are policies in place to ensure a transfer of knowledge and technical expertise.

Mystic216:
Why can’t Nigeria be independent for once?

Can’t you empower your citizens to do these things and have all the money by yourself?
There are people that are capable of doing these things with adequate empowerment and support from the government, but No, they love China more than their citizens

Sigh

Nigeria should stay neutral and do business for its own benefit with everyone that is genuinely interested. Geopolitics should be clearly off the table!

They are so loving the excessive charges for supplying little or no electricity hence their push for increased to make up for the free money they have been accustomed to.

They can’t imagine customers paying for only the metered electricity supplied and no crazy/fraudulent estimated bills.

What of all the amnesty programs that have been given that only serves to make the problem worse?

Amnesty in the North has been given severally but has not worked because the bandits and insurgents only regroup and become more daring.

This is why no government should ever give amnesty to criminals who kill villagers and children with reckless abandon!


[quote author=ogugwa1992 post=124412640][/quote]

What hype by Yorubas are you referring to, especially since the teaching hospitals that you mentioned are all federal government funded?

In actual fact if Yorubas were to be big on image laundering or hype like you claim, then there would have been an unmatched hullabaloo everywhere especially since they have a way of always being ahead in most human development strides and performance indicators. And even in the few instances where they are not first, they are usually a close second with several accolades to make up for conceding the top position as we see in every statistical analysis. Your assertions clearly come across as an envious individual looking for a way to dilute the performance of the Yorubas in spite of the myriad of challenges confronting all.

Ruke1989:

Yoruba people sabi hype their own. Don't fall for it. Afe medical students are currently being trained in federal teaching hospital Ido-Ekiti just like other medical students - they train in a teaching hospital owned by federal govt.
However, he has built and equipped his own specialist hospital but his students are not trained there yet because of low patronage which can affect the quality of the training.
His hospital is one of the best based on south west standard hence the hype. Most federal govt owned teaching hospital in the south west such as OAU, FETHI, and that of Ondo State do not have MRI machine, scanners and simple equipments owned by private radiological center in Benin, Pottharcourt, Lagos and Abuja. So you see patients from UITH, OAUTH, FETHI referred to Afe hospital for CT scan, MRI, etc by the big for nothing teaching hospitals of the south west. That's why you hear Yoruba people hype afe as best in Africa. It is not true. The doctors working there on a per operation contract are thesame doctors from public hospitals in Ekiti especially FETHI. It is not foreign doctors. Indian doctors are brought in once in a while as part of a media campaign to do some medical operation. Once they are done, the doctors go back, they rarely spend up to a week, but the media would be washed by news headlines of how afe doctors cured cancer, transferred bone marrow, did brain surgery, etc. It is propaganda

It was important for him (COS) to put up this narrative before the stealth beneficiaries of the banditry whip up ethnic sentiments and resentment when the bandits are being wiped out without mercy.

The Defense Chief and other service chiefs need to corroborate and hold this position so that there is no crack for the bandit sponsors who maybe in the corridors of power to exploit.

This was a good move.

SAMBARRY:
This man you're beginning to talk too much.let your actions do the speaking.


You no see your OGA (Tinubu) do you see him talking again? He lets his actions do the talking both to the LP noise makers and the electorates

During Obasanjo’s administration, Chief Afe Babalola was one of the most influential legal luminaries who had the ears of the president. If only he had advised Obj about improving the legal and other systems of government as against the widespread manipulation and disregard for the rule of law that was observed during Obi’s tenure. Who else remembers the third term saga and the “do or die” elections?

Today, the duo see the need for changing what they seemed to have benefited from immensely, which translates to them complaining only because they are not the ones directly benefiting at the moment.

Well, the belated advice should be taken on its merit for posterity and to avoid Tinubu and his own retinue of officials coming tomorrow to come and pontificate and give advice that they themselves refused to heed in spite of the obvious merits.

Shalom!

CCTV cameras anyone?

I actually agreed with your statement that special advisers (who are more of confidants) should not be treated federal character.

2mch:

So you want him to appoint Obedients as his personal doctor and cook or what? Why don’t you kuku tell him to kill himself for you! These are the appointments people are saying is tribal. Lmao.

Biggest undoing any president can cause himself with his own appointments.

2mch:
You want people that will go there and be leaking rumor, when their heart are not pure towards him. Causing trouble and distraction in Governance based on their inferiority complex. These are his Special Assistants, federal character is not required. He will work with who he is comfortable with, and can carry out his orders as required. The names and lies you have told against him is not enough? The guy de learn from you na.

Well said.

Simply do unto others as you would want done to you, and most of the conflicts will disappear. This is because, people will naturally judge you with the same yardstick as you use to judge others.

If you like to criticize others, ensure you are also open to same level of criticism by others. If you love praising or having your tribe praised by others, make sure you allow other tribes to equally praise and have others praise them without rancor.

Train yourself to apply fairness and equity in your judgment of others at all times even if it seems somewhat difficult. Finally, avoid stereotyping people and you will not be stereotyped as a people.

Injera:
A section of the country is hurting, so deeply hurting, they feel marginalized and unwanted.
They also feel powerless and feel victimized, thus by default are defensive and distrusting. They need healing.
Healing won't come with hate for others, healing won't come with having superior complexes, but will only come with humility, respect and forgiveness towards others.
All tribes should respect one another and be humble.
Hating obi by extension means hating on Igbo's and likewise hating on Tinubu is hating on the Yorubas.

Congratulations!!!
