Nigerian police got no chill mehn...if only it were possible to avoid these guys completely.

Who else is better suited to present an award to a colossal failure if not crop of ilk minds..

So long it's an APC award it is befitting ..failures recognising failure.

Crime...crimes ...and more crimes in Nigeria every passing day, this country is sitting on the precipice of total collapse.

This treatment is more effective than outright jungle justice ..

Ooh! Lawd make it possible for every child to choose the country of their birth...this is no country

How is it fair to make some people pass through hell twice, Nigerians are subjected to in-life and afterlife hell, because it is very certain most Nigerians are headed for Hades.

I want to see nairaland good for nothing exponents term this US of blood

Nyamuriflathead:
Which kind yeye court? This is laughable.
Someone should pls tell these pipo that it's the duty of the legislature to make laws. Courts and judges are supposed to interpret these laws and not usurp the authority of the legislative arm of government. Only the president and sultan can actually Wade into this issue, not courts.
The qtn everyone is asking is, what was Emir sanusi doing when the bill to decentralize his emirate was raised till it reached second reading and was passed into law? This issue could have been settled amicably if not for the Emirs Over bloated Ego. He probably has bad advisers as well..

See dawan tattoo....

Share if you think vigilantes are more efficient than the conventional security agencies like if you think otherwise

Who in his right senses will put this crap in their living homes..

Mtchwww!

NOETHNICITY:
So people working into the late of the night don't deserve a simple 30minutes break

Nawa for una

The official break hour should be used...besides if you think they are not been paid for the extra hours you have another thing coming..

Time is money and time should be used judiciously, 30mins. could make the difference between life and death.

In responsible climes they don't mess with official time and that is why they are better while we retroggress as a people and as a country. I know this because I have a first hand experience.

Do not condone official recklessness because you feel you have a stake in it...

NOETHNICITY:
Didn't u also read where they said the went for break in afternoon for lunch? enh
Or lunch is not a personal tin also?

Nigerians re the problems of this country

too much hate and religious intolerance oozing everywhere

Afternoon is an official break time....it is known, so what is your next excuse?

Oh! So okey don get this kind grown up bleep size chick..

klas:
Was he the only member fasting? The meeting was suspended for 30 minutes for all fasting members to break their fast. What is difficult in that? There are breaks in meetings for people to have lunch, how much more for people observing fasting.

You read there, where the VP suspended the ongoing FEC last week for him to receive a delegation of human rights group, yet you didn’t see anything wrong with that.

The VP suspending FEC to attend to a delegation from Human Right group is a state responsibility, suspending FEC meeting to break fast is a personal responsibility. Hope you see the difference. And you don't bring your personal activities during important official function.

We have special rulers in this country....Just image what this man is suspending a state function to do....couldn't he have delegated the vice president to preside over the FEC meeting if religion is all that matters to him.

Misplaced priorities it shows this man has no iota of discernment of the myriad of challenges the country is facing or he he plainly doesn't give 2 shi.t about what anyone says or thinks

Oturugbeke !!!!

Cossy - future mother inlaw.....wonderful

This mother inlaw must really want his son dead before his appointed time.

Where the tape or idonbilivit..

Got which Nigerians talking....diswan wey you go see everywhere for Lagos

After your course come back and play puppy to the drug baron..

Northern president...the most bigoted president Nigeria has ever witnessed.

9japrof:
Nigga is the real MVP.... This inbreeding is of the highest order

For the brothers that leave your wives for years to go hussle abroad, just know you can't have it both ways, you make the money and loose your home...

Woman no be firewood, they would so grind to the point that they would grind out babies

That is not inbreeding my friend the mofo ain't related with the brother's wife in anyway

Oturugbeke!

Good move...but they should look into the blue BRT those buses are gradually been neglected and before you know it they are back to molue mode,

-They don't wash them anymore

-Some of them emit thick black fumes like the red BRT

-Some now open their windscreen because the A.C. ain't working anymore

-Some with functioning A.Cs drip condensed water like window units in an old dilapidated local government office

- They now stack people inside the buses like crates of drinks in a major distributor warehouse

-And some of the drivers have attitudes that compares favourably with the Agberos in yellow danfo buses.

- some of the bus terminals have been converted to urinary by the sea of touts at the various bus stops Ojota particularly.

It is well Eko oni baje

The erection of artificial shrines and unapproved buildings along the Calabar –Itu–Ikot Ekepene highway in Cross River and Akwa Ibom States is constituting an obstacle to the dualization of the expressway.

The dualization, DAILY POST findings revealed, was undertaken by the present government. The road, which was constructed in the 70’s during the era of oil boom by the General Yakubu Gowon regime, had since become a death trap.

The Federal Government had awarded the road contract in 2018 to a firm, Julius Berger, for the complete reconstruction and dualization of the entire span of over 50 kilometres stretch of the road.

However, rather than appreciate this move by the government, villagers living along the stretch of the road have devised a plan of getting money from the government by erecting emergency structures close to the road.

When our correspondent visited the road during the week, many villagers were seen building houses, erecting shrines and sinking boreholes by the side of the road which has already been surveyed with structures captured for demolition.

For instance, the villagers along Okurikang, Ikot Okon Akiba, Kparam, Akai Effiwat, Itu Bridge head and Itu junction and other villages in Akwa Ibom State have erected shrines and unapproved structures.

Some of the villagers, in an interview, admitted that they are rushing to build houses and shrines close to the road knowing that contract has been awarded for the construction.

One of them in the village of Kparam, who gave his name as Ekpo Ekpo, said, “We are not aware of any road construction project. We are building on our land and nobody has told us not to build close to the road”.

An elderly man on clutches in the same village, who refused to give his name, was seen supervising the building of his house. He explained that his other structure is a thatch house which could collapse at any moment. He stated that this was the reason he has engaged someone to build another one for him beside the road.

Another young man, Elvis Samuel in Ikot Okon Akiba village, openly admitted that he is building his house close to the road so that he could get paid by the contractor when it is demolished in the course of the construction work.

“We have been living here for many years and have been suffering the effect of the bad state of this road and now that government has decided to work on it, we should also be given some compensation for keeping the road alive by filling the bad spots with stones and sand for vehicles to pass,” he said.

Reacting, the village head of Okurikang, Chief Inyang Inyang said he was unaware of any rush to construct houses close to the road, adding that if there is anything of such, “those doing the work should be the ones to complain not those just passing by”.

At the Federal Ministry of Works, Calabar Office, the Federal Controller of Works, Engineer Bassey Nsentip said such “deceptive development” is not encouraged by the ministry.

Nsentip said when the estate valuers were given the job of assessing structures on the road, they were instructed to do it with speed to avoid people cashing in on the situation, yet people are still building after the right of way for the project has been acquired.

“It is common here to see that after the structures have been assessed and marked some people still build in front of the ones marked and use their red paint to mark their own structures but the estate valuers have a code to identify the ones marked by them,” he said.

He said any structure that was not captured when the right of way was being acquired would be bulldozed without the payment of any compensation to owners of such structures.

An orthopaedic surgeon at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Prof. Olayinka Adegbehingbe, who was kidnapped on Sunday, said that N5.045m was paid to secure his release.

Adegbehingbe disclosed this on Tuesday in Ile-Ife in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria at his residence on the university campus.

The surgeon, who said he was hale and healthy, attributed his release to the power of God.

According to him, the kidnappers had demanded for N30m and later collected N5.045m for his release after much negotiation.

He condemned the level of insecurity across the country, saying majority of the youths are jobless and have now resorted to crime.

“The Federal Government needs to invest more in security; we need to know the identity of people coming in and going out of the town, state and the country at large.

“The people who abducted me were Fulani herdsmen and they had four guns and multiple rounds of ammunition as well as different dangerous weapons, ” he said.

He called for community policing as well as provision of employment for the youths, adding, “idle hands are the devil’s workshop.’’

“I also thank the security operatives, the entire OAU and OAUTHC communities, our families, church members and all other well wishers for their prayers and other support rendered,’’ he added.

President of the Nigeria Medical Association in Osun State, Prof. Oluwole Komolafe, expressed gratitude to God for the release of Adegbehingbe.

“ The Federal Government should look into the issue of security across the country so that citizens would have rest of mind,’’ he said.

Prof. Rasaq Adebayo, another colleague of Adegbehingbe and consultant cardiologist at OAU Teaching Hospital Complex, attributed the release to God’s intervention.

“We thank God for the release of our colleague for we cannot afford to miss an intelligent, competent and qualified surgeon like him,” he stated.

The Public Relations Officer of the university, Mr. Abiodun Olarewaju, while speaking with NAN, confirmed the release of the kidnapped lecturer at about 8:00 pm on Monday.

Adegbehingbe was kidnapped on the Ife-Ibadan expressway on Sunday while returning from Lagos.

Young men dying for a useless course...boko haram wey no get value for life.....you see them hagard looking with sophisticated weapons and you wonder what really could be driving these sub humans..

Op can you pass this message to whoever highlighted those points that all those processes can be easily and effectively bypassed if you even without uttering a word, drop your left hand outside the driver's door in a clinched fist then watch out for the officer's grin as he approaches with full attention on the content of the wrapped fist.

From experience all 16 points highlighted does not guarantee you stress free passage.

Gov.Akeredolu has suffered every Tommy, Dike and Harrison now gives ultimatum.

Issorite.

Guess she'll be sober now.....a sharp departure from her aggressive posture during the fight.

The only thing in her head right now will be..." if only I had heeded to baba Kunle attempt at brokering peace"..

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that communities with prevalence of insecurity, cultism and kidnapping will no longer enjoy State Government patronage.

Addressing a Special Security Meeting at the Government House, Port Harcourt on Monday, Governor Wike said that the State Government will dethrone Traditional Rulers in communities where cultism and kidnapping are encouraged.

The security meeting had in attendance the Rivers State Commissioner of Police, Usman Belel, State Director of Department of State Services, Tosin Ajayi, Commander SOG 115, Nigerian Air Force, Air Commander E.O. E Ebiowei, Commander NNS Pathfinder, Commodore SJ Bura and State Commander of Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, ML Haruna.

Also in attendance were Local Government Chairmen, Traditional Rulers, CDC Chairmen and all Youth Leaders in the state.

Governor Wike said: "All those Local Government Areas where there is no serious cases of cultism and Kidnapping, the State Government will give them more projects and attention.

"But Local Government Areas where cultism and kidnapping have become entrenched, the State Government will depart.

"For communities where cultism and kidnapping are encouraged, their Traditional Rulers will be deposed. We will not allow crisis in our communities. If you don't want to take the war to them, we will take the war to you".

The Governor noted that all youth groups found to be involved in cultism will be dissolved by the State Government.

He noted that under the current dispensation, the Government and people of Rivers State will take their fate in their hands by collectively addressing the security challenges. He urged all stakeholders to work with security agencies to fight insecurity.

"Enough is enough. Nobody arrested by security agencies and cultism will see the light of the day. If you say, we will not sleep, you also not sleep. Every logistic has been provided for security agencies to tackle the insecurity ", he said.

He warned that any top Government Official caught in the process of trying to work for the release of arrested suspected cultist and kidnapper, will face the full weight of the law.

The Governor directed council Chairmen to work with their respective Traditional Rulers, Community Development Committees and Youth Leaders to advance the course of peace. He also directed Council Chairmen to clear bushes along the East-West Road and other major highways of the State.

In his remarks, the Rivers State Commissioner of Police, Usman Belel assured that the Security Agencies will fight to reduce crime to the barest minimum

He said that the Police will use the community policing strategy to involve community stakeholders in the peace process. He called on Rivers people to support the police with information to tackle cultism, kidnapping and fake news.

Chairman of the Rivers State Council of Traditional Rulers and Amayanabo of Opobo, King Douglas Dandeson Jaja urged the Security Agencies to take Traditional Rulers into confidence as they carry out their responsibilities. He, however, decried the situation where security agencies divulge information passed to them by Traditional Rulers.

While saying that the Traditional Rulers will support the security agencies to fight insecurity, he regretted that Council Chairmen hardly consult Traditional Rulers on security matters.

Laziness of Nigerian youths...I can swear by that mofos big c0ck that he did not burn that fake jersey due to Man. United inability to qualify for the champions league but rather manchester draw with Huddersfield cutting his Nairabet sport betting coupon.

Agbaya!.

The country he served indeed....did he serve for free or were they not paid...if he wants to solicit for assistance he should do that and stop this age long emotional blackmail.

There's no law that obligates the country to her past sportsmen and women, what he is passing through now is nothing but evidence of planlessness.

I trust kind-hearted and well to do Nigerians will respond to him out of pathos.

Why are these petty pick pockets and thieves always very ugly..?
