Sim cannot win in the Appeal and supreme court, wike has those places on lockdown, he can only win in kangaroo Rivers State high court, most of you do not even understand what is happening

I think you are missing the point. Wining is not the issue. The issue the relevance of the judgement at the time when supreme court gives it's verdict.

Do you think if appeal had ruled in favour of the LGA men, they would have gone back to their position? Their tenure have elapsed anything judgement after June 17th is academic exercise.

vanitybutiwanti:
He has pulled it off already, sorry bro

Don't forget there is Appeal and supreme court.

E nor concern me. I only enjoying the drama

No suprise. Like what happened before they will appeal the judgement. The appeal court will rule in favour of Pro wike and it will run up to the supreme court and by the time this matter is over, the LGA elections must have come and gone. Everybody will go home and prepare for 2027. This is politics.

The law lacks emotions. It judges on what is brought before it. We humans will continue to give it rubbish to judge while we keep the main issue laying untouched..

No offense but. , you need to remain confused.

Your common sense is very accurate. They already know they will loose at SC. They are only buying time and building their case.

Vague statement... oga no wan cast update.. 😂 say case go drag sotey....

Fear quiet men o! 😂

I pity Martins and his friends... dem go go court tire... Oko jumbo has gone to the supreme court to decide JURISDICTION and not the main matter... supreme court will tell them go back to the FHC and file proper court processes... 😂... meanwhile time dey go...

Justice okorowo matter still dey pending... the game is the game.. whoever is advising fubara is a mafian i swear... 😂... look at him sounding defeated but he knows what he's doing.

Meanwhile, appeal court said all parties back to status quo antebellum.... that is the state of things before the case at the SHC . What was the state of things then? Oko jumbo was already speaker .. so we are back to the impasse. 😂


Look at order 3... it says all parties go back to status quo antebellum.. that is the state of affairs before the matter was instituted at the state high court.

Now Oko jumbo became speaker 8th May.... the order by Wali was given 10th May so what is status quo antebellum 😂

The appeal court was careful not to grant any of the prayers Martins requested that had to do with the meat of the matter like asking the court to remove oko jumbo as speaker and render his actions as null and void. That language was not used. The AC avoided granting amewhulee prayers as that would amount to deciding the main matter that should rightly start from the FHC.

Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer but it appears like common sense to me. Let the lawyers in the house dispute me.i'm willing to be corrected . 😂

Not in my country.

I am sorry: Outgoing UK PM, Sunak concedes defeat

In my opinion, the Rivers State government strategically approached this case.

The Appeal Court emphatically clarified the constitution's stance on this matter, and I believe the government is well aware of this.

The Rivers State government wisely utilized the State High Court to buy time, achieving key milestones like swearing in commissioners and LGA chairmen.

Although the Appeal Court struck out the case at the State High Court, today's judgment presents two options: the government can appeal to the Supreme Court to further delay proceedings or initiate a fresh case.

The government's legal team will drive this lengthy and intriguing journey, and time will reveal the victor and villain .

Always targeting

Stupidity.

Everything that is happening Now, wike did the same and even worse. He chased Amaechi out of River State. The elected LGA chairmen and councillor at the time were chased out. Sim is even lenient to have waited this long. You see how a LGA chairman would be abusing him, even up to his own council member. Wike won't tolerate this rubbish. So him and his boys should have taste of it.

Wike, yes he tried for Rivers people by providing good roads and decongesting traffic in the metropolis.

My dislike for him began when after 3 months in office, he rose to impeach the governor.
People came up agreement is agreement. What is agreement? Let us read it and figure out where messed up. Till date nobody has come forward to say what the Governor did.

He can't be an Emperor forever. It is the people that made him powerful. It is also the people that will tear him down.

Fubura should also learn, if he misbehaves after his tenure, he would also be given his own fair share.

Ezemarcel:
Why not tax them and us the proceeds to fix the country ... Nawoo for this government

My thought exactly.

We are no more arising as compatriots, it is Nigeria we are hailing now

These things a simple and straight forward. If Aba can do it. Nigeria can do better. Just at the dawn of a year anniversary in office, labour union are embarking on strick. What a country

We will survive . These cut and join measures doesn't help. Produce and export. I don't know how difficult it is for them to understand these terms.

One year in office. Multinationals are leaving. No one is coming.

They have been travelling the world attending one economic summit after another. The outcome from those trips is yet to reflect on the economy.

One year in office on economic blueprint. Even the refinery we are using to get hope. No way.

In less than 2 weeks an executive bill for a new national anthem was pass into law. But no executive to encourage production and the likes.

Is he still owing them?

Kam2021:
No dey form innocent when you have withheld salaries of 2 local government councils for 2 months because of politics. In this hard economy release the salaries of those council workers and fight your fight stop dragging them into your fight.
But on the other side,this is a slap on the president's effort. You can be impeached and nothing will happen.

Which LGA did he withhold salary?

We are the giant of Africa

RenaissanceGuy:
If we're unable to export, why is this very costly? Is the abundance not supposed to make it extremely cheap??

Dollar entered it and it developed attitude. Lol

Production is the key word. That is our only source of revival. These FG knows this, yet....

What's now the difference between this one and the ex President who died this morning

Who do Africa this kain thing

I had to read it again to be sure what I read is correct. Wahala

immortalcrown:
Will Okonjo Iweala accept this appointment? 🤔

I think she is too big for this kind of appointment.

There are Yoruba and Hausa names on the list. Those who say Igbo should not vote in Lagos State, how far?

Nobody is big oh. What is important is for the betterment of the state. If she doesn't bring her wealth of experience, who will? I like Otti's vision. His selection is top notch. He is not about tribe. He is about development.

My story
We've dated for 6months and we've lived together for the 6months.

On our 3rd month, I found her interesting and told her I'll like to marry her. She accepted but no engagement ring or anything to show. We just accepted by word of mouth.

Since then, I've worked towards it. I've told her to call her mum and eldest brother(dad is late) to relate my idea and understand their feeling since it won't be that easy to marry. (same state, but my people and her people are highly selective in marriage)

After several persuasion, and threat that I'll throw her out if she doesn't relate the circumstances to her family, she called the mum. And again I had to force her to call the eldest brother. She claimed she did. And that's enough. I'm ok.

Meanwhile, there's this guy(her ex) she claims helped her when she came to Lagos. It was when I started accommodating her that I found out in her chats that she was living with this guy, but lied to me she was living with her Aunt and the aunt's husband was harassing her sexually and she wants to leave. She later told me the guy, though provides for him but has never had sex with her, even when she was living in his house. These stories doesn't move me since everyone, who is not a virgin has an ex. So I forgave all that and we moved on.

She wasn't everything I need in a women, but I told myself I could train her the way I want. We continued adjusting to each others likes and dislikes.

I feed her this 6 months, provide comfortable shelter, buy her things she needs,(not want). Told her I'll do more and open a shop for her, if we get married, but she still confronts me asking why should I wait till after marriage? . I didn't allow the words move me cos Its my decision and my money and also, I'm used to gold diggers.

A good number of times, I see her as being selfish. If things doesn't benefit her, she'll not get bothered even if I'm involved.

Just this week, It became obvious to me that she argues everything I request her to do. From 24th Dec, we've been on holiday, we're always at home.
1. I'll wake her up at 9 and ask her to prepare breakfast for the family, she'll prefer to roll on the bed than do it. I'll finally have to do it myself so I can get things done and get busy.

2. I detest girls on eye lashes. I've repeatedly told her how I dislike it, but when she went to fix herself for the Christmas, she fixed the eyelashes, Contrary to my demand.

3. I got her some sneakers to upgrade her fashion style and look smarter, instead of the usual slippers and sandals she wears.
When we prepared to go to the beach few days ago, I requested her to put on the sneakers to look more fashionable, but she refused buttressing that she must wear what she wants, sandals.

4. Few days ago, we had a heated argument and she said that if I'm not happy that she's living with me, that she can go, afterall, she has somewhere to stay. I asked her to go and she immediately called that her ex bf to come to my house. I immediately swung into action, took all her belongings out, before the ex will arrive, at the same time, retrieving the items I gifted her.
While she was struggling to have her gifted items back, our neighbours heard the struggle and had to come and settle for us. She apologized and I forgave her. we were back into the house.

5. Just yesterday , we left home together, and I locked the door and I took the keys with me. We walked down the street together to the Busstop, I have almost no friend and seldomly greet. But there's this my ex girlfriend by the roadside, she saw me and yelled my name, I went to greet her and my Fiancée picked offence, left me without waiting for me. After that I chased her and told her it's nothing because I've told her everything about this ex.
Before we could get to the Busstop, she demanded for the house keys and I gave her since she might come back earlier than me.
We couldn't say bye. The anger was clear on her face and we parted ways.

After about 15mins, I got to where I wanted to make payment for the items I picked only to notice I am not with my transaction phone. I was confused where could I have kept it, the seller insisted I may not have come to his shop with the phone, and the phone rang as I called with my second phone. so I had to call my Fiancée for assistance since she's with the keys.
At first, she said she was still around the Busstop but when I told her I needed her to go home and confirm my phones whereabout, she said she can't go back that she has gone far, shouted on me and hung the phone.

I called and called and called, but she didn't pick. Many thoughts ran into me. Who took this phone? My money? , my phone? , my sim card? . I had to find my way and trekked back about 4km to the house since I had no cash with me. And finally saw the phone ringing in my house. I was relieved.

The way she shouted to me on the phone got me unbalanced, I felt she would be fire if I get this girl as a wife.

We finally traveled to our home state today and I paid the bills for the traveling. My major plan of traveling was to see her people and do the needful before I mistakenly get her pregnant. But I'm seriously contemplating of canceling this plan and throw her out come January. I need peace.

Dear nairalanders, I'm really in the middle of the deep blue sea and the devil.

I need mature and candid advice please.
Should I continue with the marriage plans or the redflags are obvious?

Call talk to her calmly and end it peacefully. Let her go with her belongings plus the one your bought for her.

egobetter4me:
I know a lot of you will blame me after reading this and even want to curse me, but this is my sad story and I just want to put it out there for people to learn. Don't ever let your parents decide your partner for you. Even if you have to run away, do it.

I recently got married to an ugly, short, black, smelly, village girl. At first my uncle took me to see her, then we spoke and she came visiting. All these happened in the village.

When I went back to the city, I told my mom I wasn't interested in her any more, but she insisted I must marry her. My mom would always take my joy by telling me about the girl anytime she sees me happy. There was no breathing space. We live together and I pay the rent. I loved her so much that I could do anything for her. She once sold her wrappers/materials and jewelleries, to send me money for school fees.

Anytime she tries to talk to me about the girl, I will beg her and let her understand that young people like to marry who they truly love. I don't want her, I don't love her and I don't think I will ever will.
After all said and done, she still insisted, so I called my elder bro to come talk to her. He came in from another state and spoke with my mom for hours. She did as if she would allow me marry my choice, just for my brother to go. Immediately my brother left, she started again.

My mom has BP. She stopped using her medication and was ailing. she threatened that if she dies, that I killed her. I thought to myself, that if she truly dies, I might live with the regrets for the rest of my life. I really tried but I was defeated. I succumbed. But before marrying the girl, I spoke to her(the girl) that I don't love her and that I'm marrying her against my wish, but I guess she was desperate. She said I shouldn't worry, that the love would grow in the marriage.

We got married. She lives with me and my mom. Even my neighbours were disappointed in me, when they saw her. Church members and friends were all disappointed. I can't start narrating to them how I got here.

We are over a year gone now and she still irritates me. I so much hate to look at her. We've had sex only about 5 times or so and I have to get high to do this. I only kissed her once(at the alter and I cringed)

I cry everyday.....both at home and while hustling. I never envisaged my life to be like this. I had hoped to meet a beautiful, clean and well mannered graduate from the city. Someone I would truly love and she would love me too. I'd hoped that I would meet her, approach her and we start as friends, then lovers, then I would propose and all. I never planned for it to be like this.

I am so sad with my life. Right now, I'm thinking of applying for masters abroad and probably use the means to Japa and never come back again.

My life is so miserable!

Learn from me. Don't ever let your parents blackmail you into marrying someone you don't love. Pls don't. Just run away for months or few years and they will leave you alone.

Bro the deed is done. Look at the brighter side. Be her friend. Open your heart. It's not easy but it's possible. Clean her up. Polish her to your taste. Send her to school. Make her be what your dream woman would have been. You will be alright

JD not your guy.

I love every about him. His music is not for everybody. His lifestyle and family is not camera centric. He walks on the street like every other human not causing attention and all.

Must be skit.

No African mother will reject a successful son unless she's a witch.

The joy of every mother is to see her sons progress.


So, a 22 year old 200 level student should be broke and poor in Nigeria?
I bought my first land in 300 level.

This is the problem with Nigerians. The reason police profile a young boy driving a car as yahoo boy.

Young boys are making money without yahoo. Yahoo is not the only means of making money online.

As a student, learn a skill while studying. Don't always depend on your parents.

Bro, you have a valid point but I think you should see things from another angle.

Every parent wants the best for their children. But at 22 years or even in the university, your parents don't know the source of your wealth. And out of the blues you bring a car to them as gift and you expect them to jump at you?

You will be a parent one day. If you don't know your sons source of wealth, I don't think you would want want dine with him.

Again, I want to add. I have driven past police many times. I have never been harrassed. The farthest I have been ask is my drivers license.

You know why? I don't create attention. The society is in ruin. The illegitimate and fraudulent activities is now the order other day. Everybody is a suspect. Why would a young boy of less than 30 years not make his millions quietly and live the quite life? Lest assume he makes legitimate money. Why ripped jean, sitting below the waist line. On dreads and gold chain flooded round your neck? You know what I mean. Maybe you would say what of wizkid and the likes? Are you wizkid?

If you work so hard for your money you won't be on the streets to be potential trouble for yourself.

Fmghewzy:
Why are you people like this !!!!

You are all talking like illiterates ,that they advertised in dollars doesn't mean you will pay in dollars na.When they are not stupid, were do they expect people to see dollars from in this dollar scarcity period


Na marketing , trust me, seeing $3000 is better than seeing #3,600,000

When it comes to USD exchange, Nigerians are not stupid.

1. What is obvious here is that their tuition fees are is not fixed on the naira.
You know how unstable the naira has been with the USD. If today we have USD at 1,000 and the next day it's 1,150 you should know that a whole lot of money.

2. What kind of marketing strategy will encourage you to make your currency of no value. Which developed county will do this? And we strive to be developed?

Nigeria's problem no they finish. Your tuition fee is in $ in a Naria country.
