This is what is expected of the FG. Every Nigerian going through legal problem deserves to get consular support from the embassy. At the end of the day, I hope that justice is done to all parties in the case.

“Consular support” does NOT mean hiring lawyers for you to fight your PRIVATE criminal charges…
Even the US consulates around the world makes this point clearly to citizens, but will ensure they’re treated FAIRLY!

Pierocash:
If this is another Nigerian,they won't care to hire a lawyer to defends her citizens. Many innocent Nigerians are languishing in various detention facilities around the world,but the FG of Nigeria cares less about those ones

Sadly, in Nigeria, people in government act as if government exists to support them, not the people…

WHY THE EFF IS TAXPAYERS’ FUNDS BEING USED FOR THEIR PRIVATE CRIMINAL MATTER?!

VERDA:
Wike spoke about not wanting VP when he was tackling Peter Obi...I think he said something like, *I am commited to the race for presidency unlike some people who know they might not win and are angling for the VP position*...

After the elections that brought up Atiku, Wike did not cause any trouble and accepted the candidacy of Atiku as expected of a party man...

Everyone knows when it comes to mobilization and contribution to the growth of the present PDP, Wike has done the most, most of the candidates he supported in majority of the states in the north and south including Edo which had a sitting governor won their primaries, that is how popular he is, he even came second in the primary elections.

Now as a candidate and party, you set up a committee to pick a VP, the committee concluded and close to 90% picked Wike, but you chose someone else, if you had ur plans already, why wasting time setting up a committee?.

You have a right to pick your candidate, party is supreme and of course there is no law saying Wike must be VP... However, the right thing to do after making your choice was to let Wike know that he was not picked and who was picked before annoncing ur pick...but you went ahead and announced it.

In light of all these, no one can come out and say Wike was not wrong, anyways...make then handle their matter however they wish, I am just an objective observer, we just want the best person to lead the country.

Why should a “committee” choose a candidate’s running-mate?!
In what civilized democracy is a running-mate IMPOSED upon a candidate?!

A running-mate is not only someone who will be spending a lot of time with the candidate…
But, if the candidate wins, his deputy for at least 4 years, and thus COMPATIBILITY is important.

Not surprised Atiku did not pick a bully and thug like Wike…
Frankly, only thing Wike brings to the table is STOLEN STATE funds!

He’s a bully, spending STATE funds to advance his PERSONAL political ambitions…
If nothing else good comes from this election cycle, his FAILURE is consolation enough!

A big lesson for Nigeria police officers who mount illegally road blocks everywhere on nigerian roads and fleece poor road users in the name of "roger" and particulars.
May God give the poor poly student ultimate victory at the resumed hearing.

How did you jump to the conclusion it was an “illegal” road block?!
Same Nigerians will complain about lack of police presence on highways to combat robbers/kidnappers.

KaluwisxPRO:
Just an accidental accident, if na police jam person.

If them check well now, the road block is illegal. Defense lawyer should focus of legality of such roadblocks.

Las Las the guy no see the AK, 3years e don come out.

The “legality” or otherwise of the road block is substantively irrelevant…
Once he fled the scene of an accident and then tried to destroy evidence, his CRIMINAL INTENT is established.

Confirm4real:
Maybe the policeman wan check him phone because for naija every young guy with a car na yahoo yahoo...

Let me think if I will write RIP.

Given his subsequent CRIMINAL actions…
The instincts of the police here (if that was indeed the case) would appear to have be well-founded.

May the dead RIP!

What a tragedy.

The driver might have been on alcohol or drugs when it happened.

BTW The CBN has reduced the international spending limit from $100 to $20 per month, this country is a waste of young talent in Digital Skills . The $100 limit
was even unbearable.

I can't run my Facebook and Google advertisements.
I speak into existence, God please let me relocate to countries under the UK or North America ASAP. Nigeria leaders have finished the youths.

What a country! İnstead of them to create harsh sentences for fraudsters they'd rather make life harder for everyone. I hate Nigeria, no capping.

sisisioge:
Amen! And may all the politicians and pseudo politicians making bad decisions for this country face the wrath of God one by one! 20usd....how! Na to be buying only burger one holiday! Awon ndi ara!

The $20 card limit is from YOUR bank, not the CBN…
The CBN’s international spending limit is $50,000 per year (cut from $150,000 previously).

Meanwhile, hit-and-run is less “tragedy” and more CRIMINAL…
The hit may have been tragic, but once he fled and started removing number plates, CRIMINALITY kicked in!

What kind of rubbish is this.,

the mofo that made a mockery of the security architecture of a national is allowed bail just like that??

Someone that is supposed to given 6month community service... let her sweep court premises,,,make she join yellow fever people.,

Nonsense

Abegi, how exactly did she make “mockery of the security architecture of a nation[al]”?!
Only person who can be accused of such is a president who populates national security positions with only his incompetent kinsmen.

Meanwhile, being granted bail is not being declared not guilty…
She still has to return and have her day in court and possibly face the full wrath of the law, if found guilty.

Yankee101:
VIP defendant?

Nigerians! Next you’ll be screaming about “police brutality”…
This is how ALL non-violent criminal defendants should be treated.

The real shame would be when they are not (sadly, too often)…
After all, defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in court!

Godswill Akpabio is one of the best and quiet governor that focuses on his work.

He is a no nonsense governor of his own time.


He has his certificates intact.

He is not like Tinubu a druggie without certificates .

Godswill Akpabio worked very hard indeed…
But he’s just like Tinubu when it comes to CORRUPTION!

The name of the stadium should be changed. Did akpabio buid it with his money?

Why use Panadol extra for America when the abortion rate in Nigeria is even higher than the USA (even before the ban).

Abortion rate in USA (even without a ban): 11 per 1000.

Abortion rate in Nigeria (with a ban): 41 per 1000.


Direct your prayers and curses to Nigeria and maybe Israel that just even relaxed it's abortion laws despite it being legal there already.

You said America is replica of Sodom and Gomorrah. Does America have all these than Nigeria?

Ritual killings
Higher abortion rate than America

PALAPALA02:
Good day all.

I want to share with you all what the Lord did for me yesterday o.

While at PHC on a business trip from calabar.
I arrived phc on sunday and decided to sit out with friends on Wednesday night. After dropping my friends at their house and heading to my hotel room with the aid of the google map, a truck was parked on the speedlane at attilary road at phc at about 2am without having backlights or even putting c-caution.

While trying to look at my phone to check where i was heading to and moving at about 100km/hr, as soon as i lifted my head up, a truck was parked at the speedlane with NO backlights and caution sign placed on the road.

And that was how i rammed into the truck. But to the glory of God, i came out unscathed. No injury sustained at all.

The police said i was wrong to have rammed into the truck from behind regardless of where it was parked or even if it was stationary. They said i ought to have been more careful.
Buh i thank God, i am alive, my car got destroyed, but I sustained no injury which is most important.

I cannot believe a grown adult wrote such a self-indictment…
Thank the Lord and stars for your good fortune but you are a MENACE TO SOCIETY!

It could easily have been a school bus or a family or in a stalled car that you hit. SMH

DANGOTE DOES NOT ENJOY A MONOPOLY.

First, before Dangote Industries received a license under the Jonathan administration to build this refinery and petrochemicals complex, at least 28 such private refinery licenses had been previously granted to different entities and investors, going back to the Obasanjo administration. Nonetheless, apart from the 4 government refineries, there are smaller “modular” refineries (Waltersmith, Edo, etc.), and the BUA Group is also building a refinery and petrochemicals complex in Akwa Ibom state. In addition, the multinational Indorama currently has the world’s largest single-train fertilizer plant in Eleme, and Notore Chemicals also have massive plant. Even in cement, he’s pitched against the world’s biggest and most powerful producer LaFarge, and against other multinationals and national producers across Africa.
>

Bigkoko:
In one of our post here on Nairaland, we accurately predicted that Dangote is broke before Fitch broke the News officially. Flat broke.

Dangote missed a vital opportunity to avoid all these humiliations, when his global economic Advisors advised him to take 70% of his liquid cash portfolio to New York, he would have retain about $200 million which was stripped off his holdings due to Buhari bad Leadership. He appears to have agreed only to back out at the last Moment. Year was 2019. The only Risk I see in the transcontinental deal was that Dangote would have been made to make Full Disclosure of his DIL, owners $ capital structures to American authorities. Dangote knew the risks and elect to stay in Buhari Nig with Emefiele promising fundings but unfortunately, the $$$ ran out!

I don't wish to be in Dangote shoes right now. He's going nowhere! The odds are truly against him.

Imagine the scenario Obi wins in 2023, & gives license to Investors for limestone exploration, cement Production & license for mini, medium highly efficient Refinery that is more feasible than the behemoth he's building in Lagos. Which he's most likely to do, so jobs would flow, Dangote only known Legit cash-cow would be deregulated & guess what? His poor management skills will be all more glaring! Int'l Lenders might take the company altogether!

Imagine the scenario Tinubu wins, Otedola would certainly get a chance to bounce back to Downstream Sector & Dangote might not enjoy continued patronage. Otedola a more astute business manager would easily rally hedge funds to his side & put up a medium Refinery in quick Pace in Ogun State.
By then Dangote liabilities would be too much for his decripit cement business or yet to take off Defining business!

Either way, Dangote is bleeped, ducked & trashed!

His horrible mistake: Building a large, Refinery due to the believe that he's going to be the only one selling refined petroleum in Nigeria! He's in for a rude shock as the odds currently favor Obi as President in 2023. 10 new players will join him in the puddle!

Which Fitch abegi?!
The same Fitch that rated this Bond offering “AA”?!

Abegi quit pulling fiction out of your behind…
And see Fitch’s rating here: https://www.businessamlive.com/fitch-rates-dangote-industries-n300bn-series-1-bond-aa-with-stable-outlook/

Transcriber:
Nice

But his refinery is his problem

Completing it will only make him richer not the masses

His monopoly will only increase
Indians that pay slave wages are also "job creators"
No?

Dangote Industries has sent out HUNDREDS of young Nigerian engineers and recent engineering graduates abroad to be trained to operate the refinery, fertilizer and petrochemicals complex, in addition to those currently involved in its construction.

Accordingly, it had already created, and will continue to create, THOUSANDS OF JOBS IN NIGERIA FOR NIGERIANS - from the unskilled so-called “masses” to semi-skilled and artisanal technicians, electricians, etc., to highly-skilled engineers, managers, marketers, etc. It has already generated hundreds of millions of dollars worth of income to NIGERIAN (and Nigerian-based) subcontractors and suppliers, and is creating a specialized ecosystem in the process. This is in addition to the THOUSANDS OF ADDITIONAL JOBS IN NIGERIA that will be created directly and/or indirectly throughout the entire value chain, as well as JOBS generated from the availability of products of the complex (petrochemicals additives alone can generate as much as 100+ different finished and manufactured products).

Each of these foregoing JOBS (both direct and indirect) will create wealth and generate revenue (including, without limitation, income and corporate taxes) for government to invest in infrastructure of both the physical (roads, bridges, electricity, ports, etc.) and social (hospitals, schools, public transportation, etc.) varieties - if the politicians do not steal and/or squander such revenue. In addition, those young engineers and all others employed because of the project will need food, housing, healthcare, educational services for their kids, furniture (from local carpenters to specialized furniture makers - who also employ or use local “masses” carpenters), clothes, mechanics, vulcanizers, etc. They might even have a little bit left over to patronize the neighborhood mall or movies, and even the local beer-parlor![/b]

That’s how you GROW an economy and take better care of the so-called “masses”! Unfortunately, most Nigerians have long become entitled rent-seekers consumed and obsessed with SHARING in derogation of PRODUCTION. But you cannot share (or otherwise distribute) wealth without first PRODUCING wealth!

Many “honest and hardworking” people as well as many “crooked and evil” people succeed and fail.
