Cannot afford? . You may take offence in this, but truth is he can afford to feed you all through your lifetime

Use of English is a compulsory course in any Nigerian University.

In my text, I wrote: cannot afford to use one.

Even when he has many of different kinds and colours, for any reason known to him, he won't just put one on.

In a storyline pulled straight from some of TV’s most scandalous dramas, a North Carolina judge is going to the big house after attempting to bribe an FBI agent with a case of beer (Bud Light to exact).

Arnold Ogden Jones II first approached agent Matthew Miller when he suspected that his wife was texting another man. Jones asked Miller if he could illegally obtain a transcript of those texts, and stressed the clandestine nature of what he was asking. “I want down low — see what you can do without drawing attention,” court records show Jones telling Miller. “This involves family, so I don’t want anyone to know.”

When the topic of compensation arose, Jones asked Miller to name his price. Miller responded with “a couple cases of beer,” adding that “just to keep things simple, I’m a Bud Light guy.”

“I can handle that!!!” Jones answered.

What Jones didn’t know was that the he was being set up by the FBI from the get-go. Just one day after meeting with Miller to obtain a disk that he believed contained text message transcripts, Jones was arrested at his home. After a five day trial, it took the jury a brisk 30 minutes to convict Jones of superseding indictment with paying bribes, paying gratuities, and attempted corrupt influence of an official proceeding.

The future does not look bright for Jones, who faces a whopping 37 years in prison. “The jury’s verdict affirms a bedrock principle of the rule of law,” said U.S. Attorney John Stuart. “No person holding a [position] of public trust in our legal system is permitted to subvert that system for his own personal objectives.”

Jones meanwhile, has turned to religion to help him through this difficult time. “I’m facing a personal trial and engaged in a re-election campaign,” he wrote on Facebook mid-trial. “But on our journey we all face difficulties. We should never forget we don’t walk alone.”

Is FFK sick again?



What exactly is putting his life in danger?

They always feign sickness when they are to answer to questions concerning their past deeds.

Everyone is on tie but this Fayose guy cannot afford to use one. Haba! Smh for him.

Good one by the erudite VP

NBA asks arrested judges to excuse themselves from judicial functions

The Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) appeared to have shifted from its earlier position on the arrest of judges recently by the department of State Security (DSS) over alleged corrupt practices.

Speaking on Thursday during the valedictory session in honour of Justice Sotonye Denton West, Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal, NBA President, Abubakar Mahmoud (SAN), noted that in order to safeguard the sanctity of the judiciary, it has become necessary for the judges involved in the ongoing investigations to excuse themselves from further judicial functions.

He also suggested that they may proceed on compulsory leave until their innocence is fully and completely established.


He said: “It appears to the NBA that it is extremely important that the NJC takes very urgent steps to safeguard the public image and sanctity of the courts.
“We therefore strongly recommend that, without prejudice to the innocence or otherwise of the judges involved in the ongoing investigations, they should be required to recuse themselves from further judicial functions or required to proceed on compulsory leave until their innocence is fully and completely established or until the conclusion of all judicial or disciplinary proceedings.

“We believe this will be necessary in order to protect the sanctity and integrity of judicial processes that may involve the judges concerned and safeguard the public image of the institution.

The NBA boss further said that it has set up a Task Force after its meeting with the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, as well as past and serving leaders of the bar, to urgently review the current developments and come up with clear specific recommendations on how best to clean up the nation’s judiciary and rebuild confidence of Nigerians.

He added that the report is expected to be out in two weeks.

The DSS had on October 7, arrested Justices Sylvester Ngwuta and John Okoro of the Supreme Court; Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court, Abuja, and Justice Muazu Pindiga of the Federal High Court, Gombe Division.

You tell me, bro

We want convictions. Make this war real.

In every war, there would be the vanquished and many spoils of war.

We see some spoil of war but no one is led to the hangman's Groove.

You cant compare Oba of Benin to Oba Of Lagos

Neither would we compare Lagos to Edo State

HBD, GYG.

The IPOB and the Eastern States would not forget you in a hurry

Buhari get your time?

Thank your stars there's no misfiring of bullet

Without prejudice.

This is an event that would take place in one city, Benin City, and the whole of Edo State gets an holiday..

For what exactly, to make people available for the event. Or make the day Sancrosant.

When Queen Elizabeth was crowned, was there an holiday?
Here in Lagos, the commercial, economic and traffic capital of Nigeria, you may not even now when the Oba of Lagos is crowned.

No offence meant!

I just feel we have too many holidays in Nigeria.

Medicine after death!

Especially when money is involved, no one would care for any filters!

Slowly and steadily, We are getting there.

Our currency is getting better.

Nice information. But why the messages on her prayer stuff.

Good for her morale and those of others needing to explore their own thoughts.

Each state should generate and distribute its own power & watch how things change.

That is what Fasola did when he was Lasgidi gov'nor and now trying to replicate in our tertiary schools.

Pavore9:
It can generate electricity by powering a generator that is 80% biogas and 20% diesel. I have seen it being used in a welding project in an energy centre in Nairobi.

Thanks bro for the learning.

At least it works for small to medium projects.

One day, it could be stepped-up to power up a local village or a small neighborhood.

Good one for the guy

Now the dibia can roll his eyes upandan
