I know the 3rd guy. He we were in the same lodge during his Msc days. He's doing well for himself on low key.

brain54:
Nah who be lecturer...


And who be student? 🤷

By the way where is the 3rd guy in the picture?

Think of this deeply!

God bless you. To add, when the government of the day make policies and give executive orders without thinking of the masses what do they expect? You removed the subsidy on PMS, and you are yet to provide stable and constant electricity, how do you expect the the telecom industry (and other related industries) to thrive without increasing their tariff? NLC didn't strike anything out of these policies. When it starts affecting the masses, they begin to call for strike. Na so!

ajepako:
Something we already knew!

Who even send dem message sef?

Fuel price hike, gas price, electricity tarrif, dem no protest

Na telecom tarrif dem wan protest against?

Awon werey

Trump makes a threat, see South Africa giving a defensive response. What a shame. That is why we will remain slaves to them for a long. We have AU and all the other regional associations, yet we can't put our heads together, help ourselves and develop ourselves. We keep hearing we have what it takes, yet one conflict or the other makes our news. A man who is not yet in power will speak with so much authority and analyse situations with amazing solutions. Put him in that place of authority, his brain is wiped off, and he becomes a total disgrace.

The Chinese went there to learn and returned to develop themselves. See the magic they did with the coronavirus and changed the world order. They have introduced Deepseek and the world is in awe. Look at Tiktok. With all the sanctions placed on Russia, they still doing very well. Meanwhile, Africans go there to learn and they leave their knowledge behind. They come home to continue unleashing pain and suffering across the continent. Trump has threatened to cut aid, we are all shaking. It is well

And then you miss the sarcasm

VicM6:
This is something a white man will never say....rubish l
Black man mentality disturbing almost everybody in africa...Now he is trying to lay the blame on a lay man.

See how Executive order giving the US some leverages. Our own executive order at inauguration made use move several steps backwards.

That is the white man's prayer

nnewsnjobs:
Nice prayer, looks more like a foreign prayer.

No mention of devil that is causing hunger in the land.

No die by fire simple and straight to point prayer, not what we are praying in Nigeria.

God bless Pastor Kumuyi.

Which one should be taken seriously? Abuja FHC? Wike used the same High Court that we should not take seriously to do his bidding and he ruled for 8 years. As long as it is a matter of the state, the state High court should be taken seriously. They should either appeal the judgement or INEC should conduct a fresh election. The thing is, I believe we forget that Wike will not rule River State again and the possibility of having someone that will bow to all his bidding is slim. So there will likely be another tussle with any of his selections. If it was that easy, I don't think Fubara would have been his 10th choice. We should remain with Fubara till his tenure expires.

yarimo:
Nobody takes rivers state high court serious na, state high court that can give FUBARA the power to suspend house of assembly member or the governor can spend without appropriation.

Your hasty conclusion doesn't seem like someone who listened to the conversation. It is not about boys they find food. The conversation will teach you to get prepared when Nigeria ever happens to you

Napata77:
Oga carry your wahala and go abeg...

Boys dey find food chop, you, you say you lose 30 million dollars.

Make we cry for you?

Or carry placard?

Rich man.

There is more millions of dollars in your account, so go and rest, please.

As if you would have shared the money with us if you hadn't lost it.

Money miss road man.

In fact you people should not annoy me with any useless news this morning.

Judolisco:
Na dem go lose.... Another burden off Nigeria if you ask me.... Many parasites feeding off Nigeria, it will surprise you how many litres of fuel are smuggled to dis countries in d name of ecowas.... Make everybody go mind their business

I don't believe that they will lose. Nigeria chooses to carry their burden. I think their freedom will bring them prosperity. Ecowas has never made any economic significance in the region since its inception. Either way, time will tell.

Etosha:
Please, is there such thing as a company in abroad sponsoring your Visa and everything to come over and work... there after, they deduct what they have spent from your salary while you work?

Most schemes like this is for hookup and prostitution. Do your due diligence

What about Arik Air?

You didn't act right. You should not have let your emotion get the best of you. It has happened. I think you apologies to every concerned party.

In most Nigerian culture,especially south and east, at the death of father/mother in law, everybody have a role to play, including, the husband of the legally married children of the deceased man/woman. It is big deal. It is the pride of every married woman. This is one of the things we don't get of know when walk into marriage.

In as much as I am not support of the culture, It's our reality we have to accept. Everybody people have there their culture too that are obnoxious. I would advice you you and your co in law and make the purchase of whatever is in the list. I won't advice you buy it yourself. Give them the cash equivalent, it will give you the room The bargain with them so you can pay a lesser amount

Finally, If you are no longer in for the marriage. File for divorce and let everybody go there way. I feel it's the best thing to do.

BlindAngel:
Good evening Nairalanders, few months ago I posted here regarding how my wife forced me into marriage that I wasn't in anyway ready for because she got pregnant. I posted about the regret I'm still battling until date, because the love isn't there from my own end and I'm also not in anyway attracted to her physically. I have told her severally that I want to option out of the marriage and not doing again but until date she has refused to let me go.

Back to the main point, my wife lost her dad this morning. Her deceased dad has two wife's and several concubines that gave birth to lots of children, my wife doesn't know some of her half brothers and sisters.

So I went to their family house this morning to console them. The eldest son of the family (her half brother) told me and another in law that we'd be the one to pay for mortuary expenses and casket, and when the burial is getting closer they'd give us a list of things to buy and we'd both bring one goats each.

To be brutally honest I wasn't mad because of this latest expense, I got furious immediately and right on the spot because of the pressure my wife pressured me into getting married to her, by now I'd have been totally free of these unnecessary expenses. More than 19 of her sisters, both biological and half sisters that has given birth, no single expense was listed for their man that they got pregnant for and has a child for. But I and the other in law that paid dowry are the one going through these unnecessary expenses.

So immediately he told me about everything, I charged at my wife right on the spot, right in front of her mom, her brothers, her sisters and some of her friends that came for condolence visit. I got so furious and started shouting at the top of my voice, I reminded her how she forced me into marriage that I'm not in anyway prepared and ready for, both physically, psychologically, emotionally, financially. (I have been reminding her regarding this almost on a daily basis and whenever we are quarreling.

I reminded her how she threatened me with suicide and our of fear of the unknown I wasted almost 4m in getting married to her. I told her that I'd have been free of these expenses if not for her pressure.

Immediately she burst into tears, and started crying endlessly.

Her mom and sisters started yelling at me and I yelled back at all of them. They told me I met her a Virgin and now she's no longer good for me (truly, the whole family thought that I was the one that took her virginity) My wife and I agreed to keep it a secret, but the constant remainder from her mom and sisters made me let the cat out of the bag, I told them that I didn't met her a Virgin that she has already started having sex when I met her, they didn't believe me but with my tone, I know they'd.

I also made mentioned that I'm not buying any goat or paying for mortuary or taking any list from them. That it's their dad and they should take care of every responsibilities, after all he has uncountable children, why putting some of the expense on me? I walked away, and switched off my phone until now that I'm just putting it on.

I know that I acted wrongly and allowed my anger to get the best part of me. But I was furious because no single bill went to her sister's baby father's, absolutely nothing was listed for them. I got furious because these expenses won't be on me right now if not for her pressuring me into marriage that I want ready for. I was furious because I and the other in law that they billed became the scape goat by doing the right thing by getting married and not leaving theirs daughter In ruins, where as those that got their daughter pregnant without getting married to them were totally free from these unnecessary bills. I'm in so much pains and regret right now.

blacknp:
He is enjoying the dividends of Wike’s endeavors, who has laid a solid foundation for Rivers state.

What solid foundation did Wike lay?

ModernAncestor:
https://nigerstate.gov.ng/farmer-governor-umaru-bago-flags-off-bago-electrifying-agenda-targets-600-transformers-for-overhauling/

How does transformer translates into stable power supply. Will it generate electricity?

There is a difference between infrastructural development and human development

helinues:
So commissioning of projects is not part of human development?

Bro, not everything is commissioning.
Improving civil servant welfare doesn't require commissioning
organising an economic forum doesn't require commissioning
Developing policies that will ease doing business in Rivers State doesn't require commissioning.

Wike, in his 8 years was interested in constructing roads. Those will require flagoff/commissioning. You don't expect Fubara to also tow that route. We also need human development, employment, etc.

helinues:
Rivers politicians should move on from the LG election abeg

Whether Wike is right/wrong or Fubara is right/wrong is not what I am concerned about in Rivers state.

My own issue in particular is with Gov Fubara, to those who have been defending him, when last have you seen Sim commissioning any projects in Rivers state? Please be sincere

At least, the Wike that's he has been claiming of distracting him in the state has been seen severally visiting different project sites in FCT without claiming of being distracted by anyone while promising more.

My womb.

yyba:
you think I am like you that depends on free bonus data to read news abi

You have the mind to make this bold statement. Have you been following all the events happening in Rivers state in the last one year? Are you sure you are even from Rivers State?

yyba:
The governor is looking for a way to blame IGP and WIKE for insecurity in rivers state by all means

9 am is late.

blackboy:
No be only APC fit rig. SIM knew rigging was to take place. PDP in Edo never believed Edo ppl will let APC rig. SIM knows who is against him. He is taking no chances.

As expected. There might be one 7 am injunction waiting in Abuja tomorrow.

Structure structure we keep me mentioning. Who are the structure? Is not people?

It is a court judgement. Anybody can interpret it.

My own is I am yet to understand Wike's interest. Beside his selfish gain. It is not like he has attracted any development to this state that Fubara countered. He spend 8years doing road , we praised him. He has ruled and nobody disturbed him. He should allow Fubara to rule. If he doesn't like Fubara he should be patient and wait till 2027 to install another anointed candidate. Since he is Rivers State God father.

Charly68:
The Governor should take things easy . Two wrongs can never make a right . I saw him interpreting legal matters on the screen ; he should thread softly to avoid anarchy in the state. If there is anarchy ,there will be state of emergency which might lead to his outing in power . He needs supper wisdom to handle matters. After all Momiko fought his godfathers to standstill in Ondo state though he had structures on ground at the time unlike Fubara who came in through his boss structures

I swear.

Greatex90:
But when he's been controlled by Wike , He will become fit.

Clap for yourself

Which court order? What of the court order that barred PDP congress from holding. Did Wike and co disobey it? Did heaven fall? .

Why is this one now different?

RISEC is a state own institution. Why don't they approach the River state High court.

Why go to Federal to collect judgment when there is a preexisting judgement on that from the appropriate jurisdiction. Why did they not go on appeal?

Baba, what is good for the geese is also good for the gander.

yarimo:
FUBARA and RSEIC chairman are good in disobeying court orders very unfortunate some people will be hailing him for disobeying court orders

Baba, which crime?
If he Wike commits, they call it power. Fubara's own is now crime.

Anither563:
This is serious. Fubara and his goons must be arrested and prosecuted for this crime.

The word ingrate has become abused. If the October 30th 2023 impeachment had pulled through would you have called Fubara an ingrate? Because you sheltered me does not mean he will have to die for you even at a disadvantaged point. To the best of the Rivers man's knowledge, Fubara didn't lobby to become a governor. He was not a politician. He was not seen in the corridors of power lobbying for political positions or some sort of. Governorship came to him. And because it came to him doesn't mean he will have to die in it. Besides Wike did it for his interest. He had promised Felix Obuha. why did he not give him? He had Tammy Danagogo, why did he not give him? and the other heavy weights, What happened to them? If most of us were in Fubara's shoes, we would have done worse than him.

As much as we advocate for loyalty it should not turn into slavery. Fubara is not a saint, wike is neither. Since neither party has come forward to tell the reason for the fight in black and white, I will stand with Fubara for the progress of our dear state. Wike has ruled and we all loved him but he will never be our governor again. Besides empowering certain individuals, for whatever reason, which is a good thing. he doesn't have the green pen to make our state move forward. So We should with him, support him for the progress of our state.

Nicoddemus:
This fabura is a total ingrate. It doesn't matter wikes offense.

Without wikes this man would not had even been able to qualify for primaries not to talk of becoming a governor

That's my thought exactly. As much as I don't support the school, we should understand that it is a business. factor in all the variables before concluding.

jmoore:
What's the population of the school?
There are many things to be considered.

There is nothing strategic in their meeting

If I had not seen Bayelsa I would have doubted the statistics

Lol. Why not
In others words, Obi showed respect to whom it's due.

Tareq1105:
In other words, Obi the Hero beer factory man, in his search for relevance showed respect to whom it's due.

Were you expecting them to ignore or starting fighting the VP. He is number 2 man in the country and courtesy demanded Obi's action. It was not like they were froliking or something. They came to pay last respect to Mama Yar'dua. Doing anything otherwise as most of expect will not Make the VP and his principal better leaders.

Softmirror:
Only God knows how many ignorant fools have died because of these politicians who are all actually friends chasing their selfish interest.

There are those ones too who profit from inciting the poor masses to protest, to go on strike, while enriching themselves with donations from left and right. 🤗

See Peter Obi shaking hands with Shettima even smiling and almost kneeling down and his supporters have been killing themselves with hatred for Shettima. Hmmm .....who can believe this kind of picture, see Atiku too sef.🤔

DON'T BE A BIG FOOL FOR THESE PEOPLE.
