Sure, it's a democracy. At least one thing am sure of is sane Nigerians will not vote for a greedy Chicago drug baron and bullion van thief.

How is Tinubu a drug Baron? State an identified case of drugs against him or just keep quiet! Debates are not won by just spewing trash about people. Come with facts please. Bullion van? Was it that missing Nigerian money that the van was carrying Is there any law that stops individuals from using bullion van to convey money from one place to another?

tsdarkside:
this is motivatin others to mutiny....

in other nations,you would be arrested....

Can you please explain what you mean here by motivating others to mutiny?

Difrent:
You sound more like a coward or someone who dont want to take responsibility.....unfortunately THERE WILL ALWAYS BE SOLDIERS.....no matter your thinking.
You dont seem to realise THE NATIONS WITH THE STRONGEST ARMIES ARE THE MOST POWERFUL....
Your argument about not joining because you dont want to engage in wars that didnt concern you , did it ever occur to you there could be transgressors from abroad? Will you just cowardly allow a foreign army overrun your country because its citizens are all righteous and dont want to fight a morally wrong war?....

Go and read that post again. Then read it again and again. Maybe you'll get the point!

meobizy:
Rubbish.

That's all you can understand from the post. It's obvious you can't read between the lines!

yomi007k:
Excuses!

You can also choose not to eat FOOD because plants and animals are living things and since they are not attacking you for survival then why are you attacking them?

Also when you fall sick, no need to use drugs because the bacteria, protozoans and other micro organisms in your system are also just trying to survive by using your body. Why then do u use drugs to attack them?
Do you not see greed, dominance, survival, hate here too?.

See this LIFE is a constant WAR FARE. Life is about survival of the fittest.

Everyone is just trying to survive. Everyone is a soldier in battlefield called LIFE.

You miss the point here obviously!

Guestlander:
Naive post. There was a time in this world when there were no armies. We know from history that it wasn't rosy back then.
As long as there are humans on this planet someone will always attempt to take what does not belong to him, be it your land, your freedom, your religion or culture.
Soldiers are necessary and indeed very important.

You obviously miss the point!

WHY I NEVER JOINED THE ARMY.

I had the opportunity on several occasions to join the Nigerian Army. I was told I have everything it takes to make it even to the top of the ranks and file of the military in Nigeria. All that was needed of me was just to say yes and people will shake the ground to make it happen.

Why did I turned down a career that someone else is praying and wishing to grab? Why did I choose the part of family life and true justice to brute Force and turbulence? Well. I don't think it's possible for a soldier to have a settled life for a start. Transfers and calls to duty separates a soldier from family ALWAYS!

Actually the main reason why I chose not to be a soldier is because I refuse to be involved in the global blood sucking business of fighting wars. Wars are the after effects of greed, ambitions, hate and economic dominance! People start wars only for selfish reasons.

It all started when one man covets the property of another and wish he could have it by hook or crook. It only took a while before it went from man to man into family to family, community to community, tribe versus tribe, then the biggest of them all; Nation rising against Nation.

There has never been a winner in wars. Only survivors. Only people who are alive to tell the gory stories of all that went down during the blood sucking time of war. War has never settled anything ever. It has only help change the course of history from time to time.

Worst of it is that even religious books were written to paint God even as a God of war. (Something I have always objected).

I know some may argue we need soldiers to defend against external forces. My question therefore is. Why are these external forces at war with us? It's simple. Greed! Covetousness! Hate! Economical gains and rewards! And many evil reasons.

Why do we have to fight if we can all co-exist as co-inhabitants of the place called Earth? Shouldn't we all only be separated by our cultures and traditions, but United by the common trait that connects us: Humanity!

I choose not to make myself available for a government to use me to kill my brother from another mother and country! Imagine drawing guns and arrows against someone I have nothing against just because our country is at war!

Imagine destroying the homes and source of livelihood of my people from another race just because I want to acquire their wealth? Imagine invading a country and killing innocent people (including women and children) just because their government and mine have some sort of diplomatic quarrels that could not be settled amicably?

I will never allow myself to be used as an agent of destruction. Soldiers are trained to kill and not to protect.

Every evil government of the world needs soldiers to protect themselves and oppress weaker nations if the need arises.

If only we choose love and harmony. If only we choose co-existing peacefully.

But because I can't be a soldier in this now dangerous world doesn't mean I will allow anyone hurt me or my family.

Don't even dare. We are the real street generals. We defend our family with all we got but will never enter into a war we are not part of or knows nothing about. We don't allow ourselves to be used for selfish gains.

Martinez39s:
From the responses you have been receiving, you can see that the average IQ of the average Nigeria is low. No sound reasoning or ability to effectively comprehend; instead, what you have are people who let emotions and sentiments colour their judgements. No wonder the country is the way it is.

Probably you read the comment in part or you probably played down the part where he said some lecturers deserves panel beating. That's the part people are talking about. That part you are choosing to ignore is as much important!

Elsueno:
Bros, just tell ur colleagues to take it easy on students.. especially now way almost everybody dey angry for this country..not everyone can control thier anger

Colleague ko I ain't a lecture bro. I'm just anti unnecessary violence!

Incandescent:
Are you minding the omugo

Chai! That was too hash

Elsueno:
Some Nigerian lecturers can be extremely annoying...so I won't take anybody side...I remember one small boy lecturer with an ego shouting down on me a while back...remain small for me to give am bloody nose..but the cooler part of me prevailed. I just walked out & reported him to the Dean...na him looked for me to settle

What will you have gained if you had physically assaulted him? Taking the right step will always justify you at the end. Taking the wrong approach might give you temporary attention, but you will always pay dearly in the end!

ChiefSosa:
Thanks, broski! I'm just surprised lots of them couldn't comprehend. I even put a sentence in Red color, but they're still unable to comprehend. God abeg o

Bro the red letters in the comment did not remove the part you said some lecturers deserves panel beating. That thought alone nullifies the other statement where you try to tone it down by saying you do not support. That sentence alone could motivate another young mind to think his/her own lecturer is one of such that deserves the panel beating. If you don't support it, then don't say anything in it's favor. Condemn it outrightly!

ChiefSosa:
Keyword: Some! They deserve to get some ass whopping due to how some of them behave to students. Some have ruined students' lives and even done things that led to the death of students. In all and all, the boy shouldn't have assaulted her. Even him sef know say e fvck up for that side and he gats take any punishment wey dem give am.

My point is still that a$$ whooping! I hate settling any by beating anyone except in the case of self defense only. It's the animal in us that believes in beating or bullying others to make any point!

Stormtrooper11:
A Nigerian Mixed Albino Twins celebrating their birthday, had left many Nigerians suprised and stunned. While a twin looks like a Nigerian Negro, the other is an Albino. This rare occurrence and condition is largely unknown in this part of the world.
Nigeria have a large population of Albino citizens. Cultural beliefs and practices over the years, had hindered the development of the Albino community in Nigeria and Sub-Saharan Africa at large. Albinos had passed through discrimination, physical, mental abuse and death over the years because of their skin colour.

Please which one is Nigerian negro again abeg

Malory:
Imagine me straffing the two ladies while they fight over me. What a lovely feeling

Very childish feeling

irunoko:
I'm not criticizing her,my point is don't be carried away with everything you see on social media.more importantly,get knowledge

She's 60s which is beautiful

Your comment didn't sound that way. Besides, she doesn't look bad for 60s. Saying she looks her age without make up and wigs was what got me. Has aunty Joke ever appear to you as someone who relies on heavy make up and attachments to look beautiful

Efna55:
What if he is just being framed.. After what happened to Joseph, I fear women..

On the road abi? Maybe you didn't see the video.

ChiefSosa:
You're the one that needs a brain evaluation if you can't understand the simple comment I made. On several occasion, I said I didn't support the assault, yet you're still saying nonsense.
You better locate the closest Primary school and tell them to help you.

You did not support it but made an observation that some lecturers need panel beating. That's the mindset I'm talking about! That thought alone is the foundation.

NwaAmaikpe:



Since they can't make good music anymore, they want to emotional hurt, break and villainize the successful one and score cheap goals from this.

What is the intent of posting this charade online?
Asides wanting to be seen as pro-family, I can't fathom any logical rationalization of it.

I'd love to believe this, but not until he obeys his family's wish and turn his back on the lady who has not only separated brothers but has also deprived you and I of having that Psquare we all had to love.

You people are the real problem. Na your life? What is the crime in giving his family a nice time? Abi you forget say they are also is children?

Mercychen:
The brother will not like this.

Are you sure of this?

Arkmanbuddy:
I think Peter is taking this whole birthday stuff too far. He's riding on the beef between the couple and people's opinion to score some cheap points against his brother. He should have told Anita to not record the moment so as not to widen the rift or cause any more emotional harm to his brother.

My take though.

Na you carry the matter for head like this. So you expect him not to be able to show love to his nieces because of one "beef" with their dad? Grow up abeg

ChiefSosa:
In as much as it was totally wrong for the boy to assault his lecturer, but we can't act like some lecturers don't deserve some ass whooping.
You that you're reading this, I'm sure you can mention at least 5 lectures/teachers you wish you can Panel beat. Sentiments aside!
Lots of lecturers have made life a living hell for students.
There is more to this story and I don't think the boy will just randomly start beating the lecturer for no reason. This is a 400level student we are talking about. He must have been severely pushed to the wall before risking everything and then attacking the lecturer. He is a human after all and his emotions may have gotten the best of him, thereby making him overreact.
The case should be adequately heard and appropriately judged without bias, regardless of the parties involved.
But, the guy would definitely have to receive some sort of punishment for assaulting a staff and fighting on premises. He shouldn't have done that. I do NOT support him assaulting her.From the way she was crying and shouting, you'll know the guy really did a number on her. The guy should have just continued to endure till he will get the certificate he came for and leave the school. It's not going to be easy, but it's the smart decision.
I'm sitting on the fence for the main time.
We need more details.

This thought already shows your mindset. Anyone who thinks beating someone to make a statement is ok needs brain evaluation

irunoko:
it's make-up.if you see her without the make-up and Wigs,she actually looks her age (old)

Btw there are make-ups for older women that conceals wrinkles and a rough face and Wigs that cover grey hairs

So what's that her age oo if she looks her age without make-ups and all?

Penguin2:
Trash!

Just like Awolowo and Abiola before him, Tinubu will never be president.

I smell Tribalism here

Asgard73:
He’s contesting already...

A blind Tinubu that led a seeing Buhari to bring Nigeria to its knees, taking Nigeria atleast 15 years backward ..
... will surely sell the remaining of whatever Nigeria a seeing Buhari left.

Buhari is the greatest undoing of Tinubu. This is a great problem he has to deal with!

Obviously Bola Hammed Tinubu is not a saint. Far from it. Infact morally I don't think he will score high. He has had his name dragged here and there over many issues, either politically or otherwise (E.g Lekki shooting).

He is really detested by many for even supporting a government like this and helping to bring Buhari to power. Of course Jagaban played a card that worked well in removing PDP from power. Could his intention to run for presidency be responsible for supporting the incubent? Looks like that now!

If this is the case, let's take a look at what Bola Tinubu represents as an administrator and not just a politician. Remember he was the executive governor of Lagos State between 1999-2007. How did he performed as an executive governor in charge of a vast state like Lagos State.

Before Tinubu came to power, Lagos State was been ran by military administrators. Civil service of Lagos was just a very dry and so under paid work force. I remember my primary and secondary school days. Our teachers were so poor that they do all sort of things just to survive and still hold their jobs. There was no pride in being a civil servant in Lagos then. Their hope was gratuities and pensions.

Fast forward this to Bola Tinubu as the governor of Lagos State. I will not say much on this, but you just try ask any civil servant that worked with Tinubu and they will tell you what they know about how the man treated them while in office.

His time as the governor of Lagos State was so faced with strong forces hell bent on making him fail as the governor of Lagos. The head of such moves against him was PDP, actively headed by Olusegun Obasanjo, the then President of Nigeria.

Obasanjo refuse to support the constitutional rights of Bola Tinubu to create local governments. He went as far as withholding federal revenues that is rightly for Lagos just to destabilize Tinubu's government and create a loophole in his administration. If we are sincere enough, we will see how Bola Tinubu still did wonders even without the federal allocations.

Tinubu had a great plan to make Lagos a mega city. The blueprint was airtight and perfect on paper and ready to be easily worked by anyone in that office if faithfully followed. Obasanjo made sure Tinubu couldn't give lagosians the dividends of democracy as planned.

Instead of lamenting and crying fowl, Tinubu got to work. He started creating opportunities for Lagos to make money and survive even without any federal interventions. His commissioners were like governors in their own rights. Lagos stood out and was still the state to beat even with been the most under funded or not even funded at all.

First. We witnessed a very robust civil service. Teachers started getting car loans, and even started building houses. Their reward stopped to be in heaven cause they started to get it here on Earth. Tinubu created the highest jobs than any governor during his time as governor. He created Lekki and Ajah as we know it today by collaborating with banks to build a place where the rich can stay comfortably.

After building homes for the rich, he was able to lure many Nigerians in diaspora to come and buy homes and invest in real estate here at home. Many people came back to Lagos Nigeria because Tinubu created that atmosphere for them. That move is still one of the secrets of Lagos as the most prosperous state in Nigeria.

By standard, Lagos still the remains the pacesetter state. This is said by not undermining the great achievements of other states, but as a fact looking at the financial strength and capacity of Lagos State.

Lagos that Tinubu left to his boys is still the most prosperous state in Nigeria even years after he's left office. Remember their is a blueprint. Trust me Lagos is working! Tinubu understands what been an executive administrator is. He has done it in Lagos Nigeria! His legacies is still what keeps Lagos State in the forefront.

Point is this. Tinubu knows how to bring prosperity. We need prosperity in this land. We need someone who truly knows how to govern well and still play politics. I am not campaigning for Tinubu, but I wouldn't mind to see what the Jagaban of Borgu Kingdom can do at that top!

Where are the other 30 something governors that governed the different states in Nigeria from 1999-2007? Truth is, they are either silent from politics, or licking backsides to remain politically relevant and paid!

Tinubu the strategist has something to offer. Trust me. A blind Tinubu is better than a seeing Buhari.

Wife of a rebel.

Only God can forgive your husband for wasting over 3million souls of his people...


Nonsense

Why not leave it to God then! If God forgives him then who are you again to complain here and even tag him a rebel?

temitope27:
See that man ugly face

Are you bold enough to show your face here so we can see how spotlessly handsome/beautiful you are before you start badmouthing a creature like you! If you can't, then just shut up and stop body shaming

twilliamx:
Nice one....a vocational center would have been a better option not building a place where corrupt practices by under trained individuals will be taking place but still a good gesture

You started off, but ended it right! Kudos!!!

Urbanchampion:
It will be messed up as usual.

Is it a crime to be optimistic as a Nigerian

Ebi2233:
He was Vice President, mumu.
Do you know what he told his boss that made him do it??

You tell us what he told him since it's obvious you know!

SmartPolician:
But why is this news?

What exactly do you understand by the word news? Isn't it a new story? Is this not one
