We use network to validate those voting

But no network to transmit the result

There is no need for network to complete validation as the BVAS is pre configured for the polling unit with the voter register data for all the eligible voters in that polling unit. There is no live network connectivity or data transfer involved in the accreditation of voters.

There is a fundamental ignorance being displayed by the silly lawmakers

hoseao:

It's her husband I pity most, her actions are exposing him

SmartPolician:
The media is intentionally making Sen Natasha look bad but someone like that can never lose an election because her district is feeling the impact of her quality representation

This is a witness report filed by TVC

"[b] Senator representing Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, was today at the centre of a fresh controversy at the National Assembly following a confrontation at the office of the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the North Central Development Commission.

The incident began after the senator arrived late for a budget defence session of the committee, which had been scheduled for 10 a.m. and proceeded as planned, with prior notice circulated to lawmakers and journalists.

On arrival, Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan reportedly met an empty meeting venue, as the session had already been concluded and senators had dispersed.

Aggrieved by the development, she proceeded to the office of the committee chairman, Senator Titus Zam, accompanied by her legislative and security aides, in an attempt to gain access.

Tension escalated when she was denied entry into the chairman’s office. The senator then took a seat directly in front of the office, effectively blocking access to the chairman’s doorway.

The situation intensified further when a phone belonging to one of her aides, reportedly used to record the unfolding events , was seized by members of staff in the chairman’s office.

The seizure angered the senator, who threatened to go live on social media, alleging that the President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, was using her colleagues to frustrate her.

The confrontation took a more dramatic turn when an exchange between a staff member and the senator’s team degenerated. A comment questioning her decision to go live over Senate matters reportedly provoked a reaction, culminating in a slap delivered to the staff member by one of her security aides.

The altercation triggered a scuffle, leading to the senator’s aides being forced out of the office.

However, one of the aides reportedly returned and attempted to draw a firearm, prompting security personnel in the office to overpower and remove him from the premises.

Calm was eventually restored after another senator arrived at the scene, engaged Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan in a private discussion, and directed that everyone vacate the area.

The incident has further heightened tensions within the Senate, though there has been no official statement from the chamber’s leadership at the time of this report. "[/b]

Her staff crossed the line by inflicted violence on the staff and also drawing a weapon within the senate building.

Penboy:
Stories like this though.
2 days.

For passport that is produced in Nigeria?
Did you factor in shipping date too?

Okay o

I was as shocked but I am telling you for a fact it arrived all three passports, my wife was renewing the passport while my kids were getting new passports.
It arrived two days after they visited the embassy.

A friend who stayed at my place the day he came to do his biometric in my city as he couldn't get a date at the embassy nearest to him received his passport within 5 days.

Jogs1900:
I had same experience too in the UK...£20 money order.I got mine within 5 days.I think renewal is far easier than processing for a first timer.

My wife got her passport renewed and got my kids their first Nigerian passport and it was delivered by DHL within 2 days of them going to the embassy for biometrics

YesDaddyTill203:
Exactly, the man is not Nigerian, his name sounds Nigerian, but he is not.

His parents might have Nigerian ancestry, a lot of Yoruba migrated to there.

LagosOrigin:
How many meetings in this year alone ?

Tinubu is obviously not at peace with himself .

He's got the governors and senators all to himself but his mind no still rest. His scare for Peter Obi ever rising acceptance all around the country give tinubu sleepless nights

How can a president be this scared of just one man, Peter Obi, so much that he's been having marathon meetings upon meetings? Abi is the president in doubt of the loyalty of governors and ministers.

Peter is no more wearing black!

MrSly:
Nigeria is not in the list therefore tinubu should continue his reckless borrowing to be in the top 3, according to agbado miscreants.

The reason we came off the list is because of Tinubu. He paid off our debts in record time and expanded put reserve to the biggest it's been in over 2 decades

Racoon:
Let electronic voting and electioneering happen first let's see. Even as you dey laugh so morbid fear dey catch you and you have that morbid delusion.

INEC AND TELECOS STAND
"The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has insisted it has the capacity to transmit election results electronically from remote areas across Nigeria. ..."
https://dailypost.ng/2021/07/17/inec-states-position-on-electronic-transmission-of-election-results-in-nigeria/?

https://punchng.com/inec-counters-nass-says-nationwide-e-transmission-of-election-results-possible/

"Telcos Contradict APC, insist Nigeria has Capacity for Electronic Transmission of Election Results.."
https://www.icirnigeria.org/telcos-contradict-apc-insist-nigeria-has-capacity-for-electronic-transmission-of-election-results/

INEC is talking absolute nonsense and the Telcos top, they are host not willing to say they are incompetent because we know the Telcos have failed to put infrastructure to support global connection country wide. The gsm map shows less than 40% coverage so how can they be able to guarantee connectivity.

INEC ace been getting billions every four years and they are just looking for ways to make FG be their super sugar daddy. Chasing an idea that is beyond the nation and needles.

UceeGod:
Your sickness keeps getting stronger everyday. For real, you really need help, this is no more politics

There is a disturbing trend that we must address, let's leave any sentiments aside. We've seen repeated and elevated incidents of vicious physical and emotional abuse of domestic staff and young people especially young girls in the care of women from the SE and SS.

It's an issue that must be addressed by the government, strong punishment must be enforced and this must be stamped out. It would also be cautionary to everyone in Nigeria irrespective of where you come from and what your societal status is

Elusive001:
Imagine if GEJ or Peter is the president while these genocide against Nigerians is going on. Imagine what Tinubu and his supporters would have been saying by now.

GEeJ was president and we saw worse, you couldn't even love around Abuja freely. Peter Obi was governor in Anambra at the height of kidnapping and it was horrible. I still remember the incident of the people who were made lie on the floor while a large Marco Polo bus drove over them. Brain matter and blood everywhere it was on his same NL

Riversides2003:
MC Oluomo sef can become Senator in Lagos I will not be surprised.

MC never attempted WAEC, I doubt he'll be able to satisfy the minimum requirements. I foresee his kids however having the opportunity in the future.

Tooreda:
Na initial gra gra. More Serikis will emerge for sure. No be Yoruba land again?

There is only about 2 seriki in Lagos and they are both recognised by the governor as they are installed by the Oba of Lagos.

I know of the Seriki in Agege who is the most senior leader of the Hausa/ Fulani community in Lagos, my own mother is from Agege and the Seriki family are so intertwined in Agege they are more than 6 generations now that only know Lagos never been to the North, they speak Yoruba as their first language, many have Yoruba names most have married into Yoruba families.

fredoooooo:
Eko lon pebi..Eko oni baje lai lai .
Awon omonile fe lo ile ...

Th grandeur and intentional manner in which the Eyo festival and the 6 white cap chiefs were installed between December and January signalled that the indigenes of Lagos were determined to stamp their authority on the affairs of Lagos.

They'll finish it off with an outing in 2027

seunmsg:
How’s this even news? How’s a man massaging the foot of his wife or girlfriend a crime? At best, this should be on gossip blogs and not a topic for political discussion.

That looks like his wife, the young one he married like 10 years ago

Just checked out the tyla push to start video and both the music and video are crap. Utterly nonsense.

Now that doesn't mean I have an opinion on Davido's song either but that push to start is totally crap.

The lyrics are basic the song has no direction.

I think a Grammy winning song should be one that has long term hearing possiblity

HacheNoire:
Once Nigerian hospitals reject you, you are bound to die!

Especially those private ones, once they are done collecting your money, and tell you to continue with general hospital, they are already certain you going to die.

If you have a snake bite do not go to a private hospital the likelihood they'll have antivenom is low, those thing have to be stored in fridges at a temperature.

Rhymesy:
Nigerians will just be posting just to make fame.
Let's understand this. UK is a temperate country locating in the temperate region and temperate snakes are nonvenomous; meaning that there are not poisonous. Nigeria is a tropical country locating in the tropics. Biogeographically, equatorial region is a home to most deadliest species of animals (reptiles inclusive). In UK, out of 50 snakes,the chance of seeing one that is poisonous in the midst of them is less than 1. Comparing snake bites in UK and Nigeria is a bias argument that lacks credibility.Netizens are not fools.We came from different field of studies. Stop blaming the government. Fumigate your environment and stay safe. May her soul rest in peace.

The number of snakes species in UK is very low and to add the few snakes in UK most are not venomous. UK, Ireland and vast areas of Europe where the temperature is low are not conducive to reptiles as they need the sun to keep warm.

In Australia and other parts of the world where snakes are a reality the number of individuals who die from a bite are much higher.

The other thing is if a snake bites you it's best to figure out what type it is because the anti venom is specific for different species, time is also of the essence as some venoms act on the respiratory system some target the organs.

unclejb2:
Igbos are the most populated ethnic group after host communities in every part of the country.

They are contributing to Lagos vat, Kano vat, Rivers vat

Yet not contributing to vat in there indigenous area. Such nonsensical stuff you guys come up with

givedemwotowoto:
In the U.S. in general, Republican-controlled states tend to tax their residents lower income tax while Democrat-controlled states tend to tax their residents more.

SE contributes heavily through low unemployment from entrepreneurship, not by heavy consumption and big government spending.

The economy of SE is dominated by traders, manufacturers, transporters, and small business owners who are producing, distributing and creating value

VAT is a consumption tax, not a productivity tax. Regions that contribute more through retail chains and government funded spending, will generate more VAT. Regions that focus on production and reinvestment will generate less VAT.

Low VAT is not evidence of low economic activity, it’s just evidence that the business activity is structured differently

Update:
I made a post about this because I think this point needs clarification: https://www.nairaland.com/8609924/low-vat-doesnt-mean-low

Absolute nonsense, if there is indeed major trade you'd expect to see it in taxes and levies.

It's either there is extreme tax evasion or there is low economic activity

LibertyRep:
Strange.

Very very unusual for coup ploters to involve people outside their sphere, except for financing.

We await the unraveling.

Civilians are always involved in coups, every coup since the 66 coup involved civies in Nigeria.

RISQUE:
This woman will walk free. Mark this today

Walk free straight to prison, she might not do hard time maybe 2 years suspended but she'll be convicted that is for sure.

That then opens up possibilities in Nigeria ,
Her brother actually stands to loose more in this case

EpicDude123:
Good Defence Lawyer. Well let's see how this Technicalities ends

Even she knows she's toast.

They've been holding her case for years, her tactic was to delay the case and thereby demoralise witnesses, some may pass away naturally in between etc she's delayed it long enough over 10 years now.

SpaceX:
Thailand have a brutal sentencing for drug traffickers I wish abrike can come to his rescue.

Why should she, he's a criminal and her job is not to go traveling over the world making a case for drug dealers.

There are many Nigerians in very difficult situations not of their making that need help not folks like this.

They should hang him soonest abeg

PulaPower:
A white sedan arrived at the meeting point, where officers arrested two more suspects: John Chukwudi Ukadike, 43, a Nigerian national, and his Thai wife, identified as Mintra, whose surname was withheld.

Thailand no gree release the wife identity..

Their message is clear… John Chukwudi is own his own..

The withheld the last name of the Canadian too, their message must be very clear.

Lexusgs430:
Who is now the face of IPOB...... One dey jail for Finland, the other is chopping beans in kuje...... 😂😎

Chopping watery bean in Sokoto

HeadNigga:
This is just a stunt. A 65 million naira car? D'banj isn't popping anylonger...he is in his "rainy days" so why would he give such away? They have achieved their aim which is to make headlines

D'banj in his rainy days. That guy ain't boit to go broke anytime soon. His royalties would be something to envy remember he left mavins with all his master's and royalties

SixSeven:
Her endorsement is seen as a major political signal within the opposition coalition


That's a lie. She carries no weight let's be honest. This is only symbolism. Don't forget she had a Senatorial ambition but couldn't win, she can join the bandwagon of Obiism because like 2023, politicians will try their chances on the waving flag. They did it in 2015 and Buhari frenzy won some seats for such people

The woman is just bitter, she can't go and contest in her Imo state and in Ondo when has soiled her husband's legacy her son's political career is finished in Ondo state and Owo especially.

Her kids can't even contest in their wards that's how bad it is, maybe another Akeredolu but surely not any of her kids its that bad, she is having an issue with the King aswell. They are now persona non grata in the place, I think she's either in IB or Lagos now.

onuman:
Ondo a state of well educated folks like Ekiti state has been Obidient since 2023 despite APC rigging of presidential election.

Ondo and Ekiti Obedient.!
If there is such a place that Obi has no chance it's those two places. If there are areas where Tinubu can be guaranteed votes in SW without campaign ts those two areas.

Even in the time of Awolowo his stronghold was Ondo which included what is now Ekiti, Obi is not an Awoist so they can't even vote for him.

Goo0dHardDick:
Who will become America president after daddy trump?

I think the American would be at a crossroad, it's either their move away from the Trump style leader and swear never to elect such an individual or they fall deeper into this sort of character.

I think if a moderate Teddy Roosevelt type leader were to emerge they'll be too eager to embrace such a character.

Kalulu44:
Abeg leave that thing, he was talked to. And he responded cus of the respect the officials gave him by going inside to call out the other players

I saw El Had Diouf talking to him and also on a phone call possibly from a top official telling the team to get back on the field

3kay945:
Think am well, why was it kick at target.?

2nd he approach the keeper after the shot. Didn't he ? To do what ?

If someone shot arrow at you., even though you're with a shield. Won't the intention best explained that it means to harm or kill you.?

He didn't approach the keeper after, he meant to score remember they've not won in 50 years , the king has put a lot into this, they would have had no issues winning by penalty. It was the ruckus caused by Senegal that caused the concentration issues
