Disjointed as usual.
This actually proves that HE Atiku may have later offered the VP slot to Asiwaju since he never declined the request at the meeting with the leaders and Asiwaju was not at the meeting.

As a matter of fact, with how HE Atiku reportedly offered HE Wike the VP slot this year then I believe that he did same to Asiwaju Tinubu then.

Atiku is slippery and I believe that explains why till date, Pa Obasanjo has never stopped telling anyone who cares to listen that Atiku is not reliable and honest in his dealings.

He did his school education from Grange School. After his primary education, he enrolled at the prestigious Atlantic Hall for his secondary education. He thereafter enrolled at the University of Hull, where he obtained a bachelor’s degree in Creative Writing, Culture and Society in 2011. He also worked as a radio host for the American business.

David got married to his wife at the age of 25. According to him, he met her at the National Youth Service Corps program.

Three years after their marriage, they got a divorce. This divorce arose a lot of attention on various social media platforms. In his defense of the divorce, he made it known to the public that he suffered emotionally in the marriage.

NIGERIA IS ALREADY SERIOUSLY CHRISTIANISED LET US ISLAMISE IT A LITTLE


Ishaq Kunle Sanni

The Christians in Nigeria when they have an agenda to marginalise the Muslims on a higher pedestal they start screaming that the Muslims want to Islamise Nigeria Ironically what is empirically provable is that Nigerian since the colonial era had been terribly and unabashedly Christianised unapologetically and if any Muslim attempts to point out this marginalisation and Christianisation the propaganda machinery of christendom is put in high gear and the person branded a fanatic and an Islamic bigot.
It is just inordinate Islamophobia at work.

Let me give two examples

When General Gowon for economic reasons took Nigeria to OIC on observer status with the hope of becoming a permanent member Christians shouted foul that Gowon their man was being railroaded to an Islamisation agenda of Nigeria through the back door. The permanent status of Nigeria was scuttled when countries with bigger Christian population who saw the economic advantage of OIC like Gabon and Cameroon became permanent members those who love to hate anything with Islamic connotation were shouting indiscriminately all over the place When Nigeria ran into economic doldrum during Babangida's military interregnum the government a drowning one toyed with the OIC permanent member ship. Christians demonstrated in many parts of Nigeria to corroborate their disdain for the economic cartel. They have no basis except the Islamc appellation

At the end of the day it was a Christian President, Olusegun Obasanjo aka Aburu Maku, Ebora Owu ( Owu Demon) who was stampeded by another Christian Finance Minister Okonjo Eweala for Nigeria to benefit from the interest free Sukuk of the Islamic Development Bank. Ultimately Islamic Bank was introduced in Nigeria with Jaiz Bank being the pioneer

Interestingly most of the customers of Jaiz Bank are Ibos who are interested more in the elevation of their business than any primordial religious sentiments. SUKUK Islamic loan had been used to construct roads across the country being traversed by both Muslims and Christians

So what did the Christians lose by our membership of OIC and establishment of Islamic Banks? Conversely they have gained a lot and their unmasqueraded animosity for anything Islam would not make them acknowledge it

Young men now are oblivious of periods in our Nation when Islamic festivals were not granted holidays in Nigeria
The colonial carry over are legion

Our school calendar are tailored towards Christian festivals to allow our Christian overlords have plenty of time to celebrate their festivals

We have Easter break not less than two weeks. We have christmas break not less than three weeks. This allows the Christian children socialise and enjoy family affinity with their families a privilege unavailable to their Muslim counterparts.
Most Muslim children can not travel home to celebrate with their parents because only two days are magnanimously allocated by the Federal Government for the Muslim Festivals of Eid el Fitri and Eid el Adha

HAVE MUSLIMS BECAUSE OF THIS SCREAM CHRISTIANISATION?
Every Sunday since the colonial era all Government establishments used to close to allow Christians go with their families to church
In 1972 during Gowon era the seventh day Adventist who are in microscopic minority persuaded General Gowon to allow them a free Saturday so that they can have a whole day to go to church with their families

Muslims didn't demonstrate against this or accuse Yakubu Gowon of christianising Nigeria.
We Muslims have been made second class citizens in a country in which we have numerical superiority . Yet some bloody , shameless and Ungodly Christian leaders would go abroad to vomit gibberish that christianity through government officialdom is on the path of be

Presidency: Why Peter Obi Dumped PDP – Wike

Published on May 26, 2022

By Nsikak Nseyen

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has revealed why Peter Obi, former Anambra Governor and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential aspirant dumped the party.

Recall that Peter Obi had on Wednesday said that recent developments within the party made it practically impossible for him to continue participating and making constructive contributions.

But, Wike told Channels TV that Peter Obi lacks integrity and he left PDP because he knew he would not win the presidential ticket.

“Peter Obi leaving the party is not surprising to me. He knows that there is no way he would have won the presidential primaries. Forget about what Doyin Okuope said about sharing money.

“How can someone who has gone to almost all the states telling them about how he is a trader and how he wore one shoe and does not allow people carry his bag leave a party three days to the primaries?

“From what I read on social media, he wants to join NNPP, but Kwakwaso wants to be president. So, does he want to be Vice President? This is what I am saying, in everything you do, integrity and character is very important. You can be the best economist but you don’t have character.”

parkvega:
When it’s time for a company’s annual general meeting (AGM) or a Church’s retreat many organisations are always on the lookout for location! Location!! Location!!!

It’s not just about the location but a great venue must have little or no transport challenge, it should have world-class infrastructure, accommodation, aesthetic view, and quality service delivery.

Meeting the variables above are some of the reasons Park Vega Waterpark has become one of the most sought-out locations in West Africa for corporate, religious, and individual events such as birthdays and other parties. Corporate and religious organisations have been staging events, end-of-year parties, and retreats at West Africa’s largest waterpark.

They come into a well-equipped complex that has a swim-up bar, two restaurants, the largest water wave in West Africa, a volleyball pool, basketball pool, Splash pad, Multi-surf slides, Black holes, and Space hole slides. The park has a top-class hotel to accommodate guests who want to stay over to continue to enjoy the fun at the park.

Park Vega Waterpark is a privately owned waterpark and the only international standard waterpark endorsed by the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA), and also the World Waterparks Association (WWA).

This weekend was one of my most memorable ones because it was filled with so much fun and excitement. I have been hearing about Park Vega Waterpark, they said it’s the largest waterpark in West Africa and I wanted to see it for myself.

Old boy that place is like Europe. Wow, can you believe I spent 25 minutes walking around admiring the facilities until I was reminded politely by one of the park attendants that I needed to go to the changing room to put on my trunks? I was not done looking.

To tell you the truth I never expected that such complex would be in Nigeria how much more in my state, Delta State for that matter.
Because of the kind of investment I saw, my conclusion was that this can only be a foreign investment or by the federal government but another guest informed me that it had nothing to do with any government and it’s Nigerian.

I had the best time of my life swimming, sliding, eating, drinking, playing volleyball, and basketball inside the pool. It is not something that should be told rather it should be experienced.

https://punchng.com/obidients-violating-freedom-of-expression-of-others-segalink-awosanya/?amp

Sadly, this is demonstrably the extremist position of these aggressors in the coalition. They want to militarise and weaponise their interests with the identity politics of hate that they have made out of the Peter Obi Campaign.

No public figure, and by extension, citizens of Nigeria, is safe to air their political views, even as guaranteed and protected by the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended.

The freedom of expression and association of Nigerians are now constantly violated by the hate groups holding the Peter Obi Campaign hostage.

From Reno Omokri, Poju Oyemade, Femi Otedola, my humble self and many others to come, we can see the pattern of their attacks based on the common factor that all notable Nigerians must submit to their whims and caprices and bow to the graven image they have carved for Peter Obi in reverence.

According to their identity politics of hate, you are not Nigerian enough if you are not an idolater chanting the name of Peter Obi as your lord and saviour, and certainly don’t want the good of the country.

This is an infringement on the fundamental rights of all Nigerians, and as often done on matters like this, we have risen against the abusive trend and have reported its continuance to the authorities.

It doesn't actually matter what religion you are. You can be as biased as anybody else.
Do you even know what it means to be a Muslim?
I already answered those questions. "If you can't read what I posted here earlier, then NOBODY can help you."

I read a Colonial document published in a history book back in the early 1990s and Yorubas who are Muslims were in the majority in the 1950s census. Population projections are permitted all over the world within every "10 year census cycle," so we can infer that Yoruba Muslims are still in the majority from the 1950s census.

Aside from Ondo, Ekiti, and Kogi Yorubas who have a majority non-Muslim indigenous population, other parts of Yorubaland [including Lagos State, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Kwara, etc, have more Muslims]. The Yorubas [Aworis and Ijebus] who are the indigenes of Lagos State have a majority Muslim population but living in harmony with their relatives who belong to other faiths.



Last but NOT LEAST, "who are you to question my knowledge of Islam or what it means to be a Muslim?" Do you realise that I have Muslim relatives and of other faiths as well spread all over the world?

Right from the very early 1980s, I took the time off to read and learn about other world religions and went deep into comparative religion
studies. I have a deep knowledge of many religions so as to boost my tolerance level and remove bigotry. I've been a member of NL since 2005 [with an older account], but the level of religious and ethnic bigotry that I see here on NL these days shows the degeneracy of a large section of the youth who will be worse than those older ones they condemn.

Seun Osewa made this disclosure on Twitter while replying to a fan who said that it is a known fact in Nairaland that he hates Peter Obi.

The fan made the above statement while replying to Seun Osewa's tweet where he wished that David Hundeyin, a Journalist and founder of West Africa Weekly, will investigate the alleged N250M to N255M cash that was allegedly found on Peter Obi's aides in 2009. In the tweet, Seun Osewa said that he has been feeling pains on his head after reading many conflicting allegations and explanations about the money.

However, Seun Osewa said that Peter Obi became his favourite candidate after Vice President Yemi Osinbajo failed to clinch the Presidential ticket of the ruling All Progressives Congress.

While disclosing why he is no longer supporting Peter Obi's Presidency, he said that with the conflicting allegations and explanations he has been getting about Peter Obi and his aides in 2009, he now believes that Peter Obi and the rest of the Presidential candidates are the same. For this reason, he lost his support for Peter Obi's Presidency come 2023.

Look JaiyeOLA14, the gentle man you quoted above is very right! As a Yoruba person [from your name], I expect you to already know your history... except if you are using a fake Yoruba name as your moniker.

Obafemi Awolowo's Action Group Party developed and governed more than 90% of the total land in today's Lagos State. About 18 of the 20 Lagos LGAs/landmasses were formerly in the Western Region of Awolowo till May 27, 1967 when Lagos State was created AMONG 12 NEW STATES by General Yakubu Gowon for the indigenes of Lagos State.

It was Obafemi Awolowo, GCFR, SAN, the great leader of the UPN and former Action Group Party that endorsed and raised the hands of Lagos State Governor, Alhaji Lateef Jakande and his Deputy Governor Chief Rafiu Jafojo both Muslims in 1979 and 1983 elections which UPN Party won.


The famous and massive Industrial Estates in Ikeja, Apapa, Ilupeju, Iganmu, Isolo, etc, were established by the revolutionary Chief Obafemi Awolowo in the 1950s.

The Western House skyscraper on Lagos Island and other prime Real Estates in Lagos and the rest of the Old Western Region were built by Awolowo and his dynamic team and then other regions in the East and Northern Regions started copying what Awolowo did. Orile Iganmu was the boundary between Lagos Island and the Western Region!


The Lagos State Government has to persuade all private TV and radio stations in Lagos to devote 10 minutes a day towards teaching their listeners the political history of Lagos State before May 27, 1967 and after May 27, 1967. Many young and recent immigrants from the Ibo areas here do NOT even know that it Lagos Island that was the capital of Nigeria... NOT the whole of Lagos State!

ProgrammingRe: Mass Resignation Of Software Engineers Disrupts Banks Digitisation Move by AlphaTaikun: 1:40am On Jul 26, 2022
Thunday1005:
The mass resignation of software engineers in most commercial banks across the country for greener’s pasture abroad, is currently threatening digitisation in the banking sector, LEADERSHIP can exclusively reveal.

This is coming as a disincentive to the cashless banking initiative, where every banking transaction is expected to be digitised. However, the development is obstructing seamless operation of electronic and mobile banking systems across banks.

It was learnt that about 500 software engineers have, since the beginning of this year, till now, secured better offers abroad, majorly in Canada and European countries where the emolument far outweighs what they are being paid in the Nigerian banking sector as they are paid in foreign currency at a time the nation’s Naira has seriously depreciated.

Aside these 500 engineers, about 1,000 other staff have so far resigned their appointments in deposit money banks to pick up juicy offers abroad, even as there are indications that more engineers and bank staff will also join them in the months ahead as the nation’s economy becomes harsher and operating environment becomes unbearable.

The development has disrupted the succession plan of many banks as more bank staff seek greener pastures outside the country.This mass exodus, investigation shows, was responsible for hitches in electronic and mobile banking operations of most banks in the country as they struggle to find suitable replacements for those that have left their services.
For example, a major bank in the country, having noticed the trend of resignations, had earlier moved up its promotion process as a way to encourage the staff to remain. The bank had even increased its package for the workers and promoted 450 staff. Unfortunately, less than two weeks after the promotion, over 150 of those promoted resigned and left the country.

With no bank spared the exodus of talents, the bank chief executives had resorted to finding a solution to the brain drain by coming together to train more staff for their depleting human resource
