We all know the law will surely be twisted to accommodate his son, just as it was twisted to convict Trump. The USA is by miles more corrupt than Nigeria.

It is you who is twisted. You didn't read abi.

Biden's son is already convicted same as trump. How will they twist it?

You are just a Republican.

See what bad economic policies is reducing the people to.

Tomatoes is supposed to be a cheap crop for making our daily meal, but here we are discussing alternatives to something that’s never been a problem to majority in making just stew and soups.

The only time I knew stew can be made without using tomatoes was when I was in Katsina and that itself is a different type of stew made from pumpkins.

Miyar kabewa

Actually, there is a disease that is killing the tomato plant called Tomato Ebola or Tuta Absoluta or Tomato leafminer.

It happened last year but it's worst this year. Irish potatoes was also affected last year, same as ginger. Farmers lost money. My colleague went to BUK to get advise on what to farm without issues, at the time, they had no solution for the tomato and were researching.

IfnobeGod20:
Please go and check your data very well, PDP had almost 100% votes in both Akwa Ibom and Rivers states in 2011. At that time people were asking, are they saying no one died, no traveled, no one boycotted the election. Same way in 2015 in Borno state that APC recorded a strange votes and I think Yobe also.
It has been like that in south east, they follow same trend to vote overwhelmingly in Presidential election for a particular party since 1999. If they can reject someone like Ojukwu and vote OBJ in 2003 and vote overwhelmingly for him. How will you think they won't do that for their own son in 2023? It has been their pattern and it won't stop in 2027.
Meanwhile, it was only Anambra he score 95% or there about, the rest states he had 80 something percent. Go and check very well the results and stop spreading fake news.

What I am pointing out to you is not the news, it is the fundamental fact that in any election, especially one that there is diversity just like ours, no where should experience over 80% votes for one party or candidate. The more an election depicts diversity, the more the election portrays competition and fairness. Once you talk about free and fair elections, the SE is in the opposite end of it.


Imagine Lagos where Tinubu is based or calls home, Obi got nearly same as Tinubu. Between Lagos and Anambra which had free and fair elections? But you we saw Obi complaining about Lagos election when we know Anambra is worst. Anambra was homogeneously rigged, while Lagos was a free for all.

IfnobeGod20:
He should advise them that they should not vote for him if he vie again for president, because I don't know your intent of saying he should advise them because they overwhelmingly voted for him. If would have made more sense if you say they rigged overwhelmingly for him to garnered such votes. No region will not overwhelmingly voted their own if they went through such horrific political attacks and marginalization by the government of the day. They would prefer their own to be there than others, same way South South were ready to take bullet for Jonathan. Same with Buhari, that the north doesn't even see any wrong done by him. Just as some of our people from south west are not seeing the wrong perpetrated by this Tinubu's regime, even though they are hungry but they bottled it up just to protect Tinubu's and south west interest.
Don't blame the Igbos for voting their own this time. Always remember that since 1999 they have been voting non-igbo persons for presidency. Please give it to them they have tried.

What I want you to check is if there is any region or state that has ever voted 95% for one candidate. It's not normal. For him to criticise Nigerian elections when his own state brings out outrageous election result is one topic that needs to be brought forward. Has Buhari ever had 95% from one state, never, Did Jonathan get 95% from a state? It can only be from the SE. If you ask me, SE is the region where there is no free or fair elections. Some presidents don't even bother to campaign in the SE because of that.

I know you understand what I mean. Obi is also a beneficiary of our bad electoral system, for him to complain is like having a speck in your own eye while trying to remove the speck in another person's eye.

cashtivist:
Sadly he's right. Imagine going to off light in the middle of a party where everybody is enjoying themselves

They really embarrassed Nigerian youths on that day. After the billions budgeted you go and off the server when it's needed the most for result upload because you want a criminal to win by force. We can all see the results on our economy

Rather oddly, he is wrong. Imagine the same Nigerians that want good governance but still the same other Nigerians are snatching ballot boxes, professors wrongly interpreting the electoral law to suit the highest bidders (Kaduna), imagine what went on in Adamawa. The list will never finish.

He is wrong because Obi won his region with over 90% votes cast, it's a wrong message to the rest of Nigerians. While Lagos the home state of Tinubu was shared with Obi 45-45%. No other state had up to 85% votes for one party, only SE did that. It's a bad precedence. Normal elections doesn't have 95% votes for a single party, that's what is a norm in the SE and it's bad. It's not done anywhere in the world.

Obi should first of all look back to his region and advise them appropriately.

I can't afford to pay my driver N100000 per month, because they are four, where is the money? - SGF Akume

The former Benue State Governor was addressing the National Executive Council of the Christian Association of Nigeria.

Does he need to drive in 4 cars every day?

Short answer

Multigrade oil eg SAE 20W-50. First number represents viscosity at cold temperatures usually less than 20°C while the last number represents viscosity at 100°C or operating temperature. Dash separates the low and high viscosity. W means winter.


Note that the monograde grade oil doesn't have a rating for cold temperature. Eg SAE 40.

Manchester United and Real Madrid and any club where Jose Morinho is coaching.

DeepSight:
The resistant fighter you mean.

Just like the Bandits we have in Nigeria, a subtle name for Fulani killers.

I resat for both WAEC and Jamb after WAEC withheld my Physics result which caused me to lose my 1998 QS admission to ATBU.

Finally went to ABU Civil Engineering and still got ATBU Electrical Electronics Engineering.

Fiscus105:
I stopped reading from ur bolded, someone went to court that his right was breached, and the court ruled against other party that ,..... stop going ahead from whatever you want to do NOW pending the determination of the main issues. Why can't the other party stop and head to same court to proof that they lack jurisdiction to entertain it or go to superior court to vacate such other?

Oga, not until we are dispensing judgement either in court or in our day to day activities as free citizens without biased, prejudice and in hypocritical ways, that we can move forward in this country.


Bye.

When a court gives an order, the order is effective when served. If the state government went ahead after receiving the court order, it would have been contempt of court. However, state assembly repealed the law Thurs, those who went to court went that day the order was given somehow by miracle speed same day, that order couldn't have been served to the Governor same day, that will be the speediest service in the history of Nigeria. Governor implemented next day Friday. Governor was served on Monday. There is no contempt of court, only a court order that is after the effect.

The implementation is valid, the court order is valid but not implementable since it came after the effect because the status quo is no longer the same.

Azumagcc:
Some people here are just talking without understanding what the law says.
Kings are under the Chieftaincy Affairs. Supposed under the supervision of the Local Government. The Emir of Kano assumed Rulership of over 10LGAs. Ganduje only created more development by creating more Emirates in Kano.
The manner it was done, maybe wrong but in all, Good idea. Emirs are thin gods in the North. Sanusi was never chosen by the kingmakers. Kwankwaso appointed him to slight Good luck Jonathan because he sacked Sanusi as CBN Governor.

Bullshyt Liar.

Kingmakers submitted 3 names. That's the law.

Comradesylva:
https://thenationonlineng.net/kano-emirates-northern-lawyers-give-gov-yusuf-48-hours-to-rescind-sanusis-reinstatement/

I wish I could drop a bomb amongst these as holes.

jimetagambo:
It started with Kwakwanso (when he was APC governor of Kano). The original heir to the throne was not even Emir Lamido Sanusi or Emir Aminu Bayero to begin with. The original heat was Sanusi Bayero, elder brother of Emir Aminu Bayero 👇



-----------------------------------------------------------
To those confused on how the two Emir's are related.

Did Kano emirate at anytime in history follow hier?

Don't forget, Sanusi's grandfather was on the throne, why didn't Sanusi's father become Emir if it was hierarchy? Late Ado bayero or this Aminu Bayero would not have been Emir if you think there is hierarchy.

This is not the throne of England.

Fiscus105:
In law,even if court rules in error, it must obey until superior court sets aside the judgement. In this matter, the first court to rule on the matter is federal high Court. Under normal circumstances, Kano state govt and Sanusi are supposed to obey, and vacate that order first, in a superior court, which is appeal court and not state high court .


Meanwhile, the opinion of OP is also wrong, because Bayero went to court to get exparte order, for his fundamental human rights that wanted to breach by state govt, meanwhile, the last time I checked, any court can entertain fundamental human rights in Nigeria.

You can't discuss your fundamental human right without discussing how the right was breached. The process by which the right was broken is not the jurisdiction of the Federal high court therefore the whole suit is the jurisdiction of the State high court which a normal High court judge should not entertain in the first place.

The Fed high court cannot entertain chieftaincy matters, how can they entertain fundamental rights that arose from chieftaincy matters?

What rights are we talking about, that he was giving 48hrs to hand over state govt properties? If he was a tenant, yes we can talk about his rights as a tenant, but this is an official residence. Whoever is the Emir occupies the palace.

If it's the issue of banishment from Kano just like Sanusi was, state govt didn't banish him. He can go to his private house or a hotel.

Of course the throne cannot be his fundamental right.

I just think Tinubu is afraid of Ganduje. Tinubu should not forget that Ganduje lost Kano, I they are fighting a lost battle. Unless Tinubu is telling Kanawa that he doesn't need them in 2027 just like he didn't get them in 2023.

This is going to solidify the grip of Kwankwasiya and NNPP in Kano.

Xenob:
Hmm, but its quite factual that accords until 2007 generally have leg issues though, right?

There is a saying that what u don't know won't hurt you.

The accords that have been so shamed about the k-leg is still a very very reliable car. Those who don't know will tell you never to buy it. But I that know it, I am sticking to it. I have used both Honda and Toyota, I still prefer the Honda in most cases. Maybe because I know I am good at diagnosing and maintenance to my own level.

What I end up as experience is that most people who say no to Honda end up spending more money in buying and maintaining the Toyota they feel is unbreakable. Mechanics will advise you, go for Toyota, it is easy to repair. They do so cause the problems of Toyota are always specific and uncomplicated but the cost of such repairs is a record high that Mechanics get to buy you such expensive parts more often. Toyota is built to be reliable and efficient, Honda is built to perform and satisfy the user better at it's price point while still bringing reliability and efficient in the mix. You end up with a car that checks all boxes.

weyreypey:
Not true. I ran more than that with mine.

You can run oh but that car is way too light for comfort. Back then when it came out first, people were just killing themselves in it. That was what discouraged me from buying it.

Xenob:
I like Honda too, but my friends keep mentioning Honda’s Leg issues.

Ignorant friends.

Same thing happened to my neighbour years back. He got a good deal of a Honda accord, his brother kicked against saying K leg. He finally bought Opel Vectra, na mechanic every day for the next 3months before he rejected the car and returned to the dealer. The dealer sold the car and used the money to complete his japa money.

opamoses1:
Sanusi though wasn't the kings makers choice. Kwakwanso then in APC selected him to spite GEJ, since Sanusi was anti-GEJ and exposed corruption in GEJ's government.





Lol. Presidency is on the side of Kano state government. They had sent Dantata before the announcement to prepare the ground. Ado Bayero is the sacrificial lamb. Just today, the Tinubu's government announced it was building 500 housing units in Kano via the nenewed home agenda.

Kingmakers don't have a final say. That's why the law mandates them to send 3 names. Anyone that is in the list can be picked. Even if everyone wants one particular candidate, they must send 3.

vanbonattel:
Which law?

Nigerians don't trust the laws of Nigeria anymore. Since the law can be used in different ways as it pleases the user to destroy things and force his ways into peoples rights.

The law is dead in Nigeria and that's the consequences you're suffering so.

The same law that was used to make him Emir is the same law that was used to unfortunately end his rule. I believe he doesn't deserve to be dethroned without any valid reason but he should understand that it is fate.

Mrsoft3:
Next election in Kano is going to be bloddy

You will be surprised.

Remember, Ganduje did a lot of manipulation and strong arming to win his second tenure in 2019. One of the people who made it difficult for him was Sanusi hence the dethronement.

This governor won fair and square, this move is a consolidation.

If you look at the demolitions, there is no one building that is demolished that is not known to be on government land. Majority are in support, those who are crying foul are either the beneficiaries and supporters of Ganduje or those who see the buildings going down as waste of resources.

khattab02:
I heard that but never believe.


Because what was the crime of Kwankwaso that he cannot enter Kano.


All these to me.. are political gimmicks

He was just threatened by Kwankwaso's presence in the state. Despite it, he failed. Just like Wike made Amaechi uncomfortable in his state.

khattab02:
Allow the headline or those willing to cause trouble to be deceiving themselves.


More people in Kano have turned against ApC and Gandollar. When Gandollar was deposing the former Emir was there heavy security?

Ganduje had thugs and police in his pocket then. Are you aware that Ganduje unofficially bared Kwankwaso from going to Kano. Anytime Kwankwaso comes to Kano, it was a war of thugs.

Babangidapikin:
Politician now toiling with the Emirate ...Now they want to turn Brothers against Brothers ...They should please be careful, Kano is a volatile state . ... I just wish there is a solution that save face for both Emirs ....a Win Win ...

Ganduje already turned brothers against brothers for his selfish reasons.

He ended up crash landing and the things he setup are also crash landing.

nifemi25:
It's definitely the landlord that will repair it if it's spoil before you park in but if you have eventually park in already before the pump develop an issue... Everyone benefitting from the pump will surely contribute to repair it...

My house agreement specifically says Landlord.

The reason being that if tenant gets an unqualified plumber, the borehole can be damaged beyond repair and it will be the landlords loss. Such repairs that could possibly condemn the borehole should rest on the landlords.

immortalcrown:
I have the habit of choosing food based on nutritional values, not based on taste or appearance. For this reason, I don't consume more than five bottles of carbonated drinks in a year. And I don't take alcohol.

If it is according to taste or appearance, I will eat noodles or Egusi soup every day. But I seriously avoid the two. I avoid Egusi because of oil and avoid noodles because it is not absolutely natural.

This habit of mine does not guarantee long life but can prevent or alleviate some health challenges.

My late friend was something like that. His mother battled diabetes so anything sweet he avoided. He also didn't eat Semo preferring wheat. I asked him one time what's the difference? I have since seen info that Carbohydrates is used by the body for glucose even more than raw sugar we take in beverages and carbonated drinks.

He later died in a work place accident which was totally unrelated to what he was scared of.

My current colleague cooks without seasoning, he is another person who avoids a lot of food due to Prostate enlargement. Everything he avoids and all he eats with the aim to lower his PSA doesn't work.

Most of what people avoid based on unfounded info is just a myth. My own father doesn't eat anything of groundnuts but takes his sugar even at 70. It turns out from my readings that groundnut (peanut) oil is one of the healthiest oil out there. The palm oil we so much worship is one of the worst.

My best friend prefers tripe to red meat, what I have read, tripe is one of the worst.

I eat what I feel like eating, simple. I don't let uninformed myths dictate to me.

Lastly, people say sugar causes diabetes, does it? Google causes of diabetes. Sugar is not there. Yet the condition is called sugar disease.

Once I see Husband - CEO/MD, Wife - Director of Finance and Admin, Brother - Director of Projects, Brother - Director of Establishment, Brother in law (Wife's bro) - Director Legal

The best relationship is the one kept from afar. Your father's house isn't your house, it's your mother's house. Go rent a house and keep your wife to avoid see finish.

4 months before I got married, I rented a house, but we stayed in my parents house for 3 months after. We would go to our house, spend the entire day but go back to my parents house to sleep. The day we declared we were not sleeping there again, my wife cried more than the day she left her parents house. My mum also cried. It was funny to me, I laughed at my mum especially. I appreciated the fact that they got along well.

When a girl behaves like in the story, it can be concluded that she will be a problem.

ngwababe:
You did well girl. His whole family will turn you to a slave. You won't worth anything in their presence again. Na you go even dey feed them.

No, she is simply not good enough. A daughter in-law that could keep peace with her in-laws is a dream wife to any man.

Do you know how it feels when I see my wife, mother and sisters gisting and laughing? I will be proud of my wife, not my mother or sisters. I am proud of her ability to become a daughter to people that are not her biological relations.

This girl will never be able to keep peace that's why she did all that.

That guy dodged a real bullet.

He should thank heavens for saving him from making the biggest mistake in his life. That one no be wife, she would drown him in bills and debts.

AnyanwuSilas:
It's not logical, It simply means we're not one, One Nigeria is fraud. Nigeria don't practice true federalism.

Same thing they do when employing workers in oil rich regions in the South. They use quoter system to employ less qualified people from the core North and leave out most of the indigenous people who are more qualify.

If common logic eludes you, what in this world makes you think you are better? If you think people you have never been with are not intelligent, how can you truly compare yourself. You for sure didn't school with Northerners, if you did, you will understand you grew up, went to school in a box.

No denying, there is serious illiteracy in the north more than anywhere in Nigeria, same as poverty. Its not a coincidence. It is not because they are dumb. they simply are too poor and think less of education.

This is my last comment because arguing with someone with little comprehension is like fighting a mad man.
