President Kagame is on this shaky table...!

Still, if we are being honest... A true democracy that meets the demands and aspirations of the citizens will leave no room for coups and military Juntas.

reiddecuti:
At the end they will yarn you say there's freedom of speech under democracy that democracy is the best thing after bread and butter.

Don't be deceived. If you're not one of them, you're not one of them. There's no freedom under democracy just like it is under autocracy, mornachy, etc.

Honestly... I am yet to be fully convinced that we actually practice Democracy in its true form.

Malroux:
So because she sued the IG they now want to 'deal' with her.

Welcome to the Banana Republic where human rights mean nothing to those in power.

Sharks ke

Shark wey dem still butcher for Bayelsa yesterday

All meat na meat for here

I know sir... But, we are not talking about 4th world nations here.

Kill the same shark in Europe, and jail straight.

illicit:
So crocodile can eat humans but humans shouldn't eat crocodile

🙄

Yep... Same protection covers Lions, Hippos, Tigers, Wolves, Polar bears, Sharks, etc.


Besides, you can't be away from their territory or not disturbing their ecological peace, and they will come and eat you.

Oscarchims:
Gasification... Nice ideas but implementation is terrible in Nigeria

Terrible?!! Lol!

Implementation is Impossible.

These words will definitely fall on deaf eyes...!

If it is not imported with trillions that we don't have, government can never be interested.

Mods, is there a reason you guys still treat Man City like a lowly club by refusing to push their matches to front page?!!

This is literally the biggest achieving club in England in the last 10 years.


Meanwhile... Burnley, don't slack o... The Awoof is not yet over. Collect ya share!

Skin allergies...!

It could be environmental, food, water, or even fabric.

It's not that big a deal... You just need to determine the triggers and learn to avoid especially if it is food-related.

Blood tests to rule out viral infections and other endocrine issues won't be out of place.

If you can, check with your physician.

SonOfDSoil01:
if it didn’t make any difference, why was Sw states not mentioned? Everyone know Sw is still the safest region insist of some pocket of crimes which are mostly committed by migrants and no society is 💯% crime free, but for naija standard Sw is still the safest and you know it except you want to deceive yourself.

If you have ever lived abroad, you'll understand that you can't isolate some states in a nation from others...!

Do you really or actually think every state in Ukraine is badly affected by Russian offensives?!! But, can you travel to the nation?!!

You think every state in Mexico, Columbia, Afghanistan, Syria, Sudan, etc, is unsafe?!! But, any wise foreigner will literally avoid those nations.


If you can't understand how even the terrorism in the North alone impacts your nation's standing on the global economy and general standing, then we really have nothing to discuss.

Thank you.

duro4chang:
But I can see how my post is making you uncomfortable and sad. May you continue to feel like that. More to come.

Uncomfortable and sad?! What exactly are you talking about?!! Are you drunk?!!

What about your dumb post should make me uncomfortable or sad??!

The death of more businesses, with the attendant loss of jobs.

...Not like those private schools even pay well.

duro4chang:
I can assure you, your lamentation will last long. Kpele

That is weak and childish, son...!

You're the one lamenting... Sycophancy shouldn't make you bereft of common sense and propriety.

duro4chang:
Tinubu will always be ahead of Atiku. When hands are raised up, they are always higher than the head.

Yeah he is... But, isn't it better and easier or even less messy to write to the school to release all records requested?!!

Since there is nothing to hide, why this messy legal drama involving a whole Nation's president?!!

Don't you see how messed up and embarrassing this is already even to our image as Nigerians... An image that has been severely suffering for years.

Wait... Why does it even have to result to this?!!

I can't imagine dragging my feet and engaging lawyers just because someone claims my graduation from a university I attended is false or forged...!

I will early on write to the school to release not just the transcript, but attendance register, year book, and every academic record of my attendance and graduation.

Definitely not me... Nothing new under the sun.


The only thing that will ever shock me is if Nigerians unite to elect quality leaders regardless of ethnicity and religion.

FOJEM:
I agree with your last paragraph, but to claim that the American Government tossed us in the mud is wrong.
Their advisory was based purely on facts, derived from credible intelligence.
No more, no less.

Oh, I totally agree, Chief.

Nigeria is in a huge mess right now.

Majesty7:
Yes, most bandits enjoy the support of local communities and I am not making an exception of any.

There are ways to fight for justice if truly there wasn't fair treatment. It is criminal for any community or individual to result to jungle justice all in the name of seeking for fairness. It drives away development.

Let me tell you a secret about this country. Most villages that always cry for fairness are mostly being sold out by their leaders. Now, after collecting money or needed amenities on their behalf, they turn them against the government.

This is the reason why we persuade everyone to get their wards educated so that questions can be asked.

Do we now justify crimes because we were unfairly treated?

Everything you have highlighted above still comes down to national and state leadership!

The people at the grassroots can't lead themselves by themselves.

Do you know the far reaching impact of honest and transparent leadership from the top?!! Do you think in 4 years people will still think and reason the same?!!

Read about the transformative impact of the approach of the following:

Abraham Lincoln
Theodore Delano Roosevelt
Jerry Rawlings
Thomas Sankara
Nelson Mandela
Martin Luther king Jr
Malcom X
Etc...

MyVILLAGEpeople:
These men dey use see wetin ordinary man eyes no dey see lol. Many effects of too much juju

I have to totally agree with you... Wike can't be doing what he does without strong ogume.

joefelin2345:
Yes superficially, an injury to one is an injury to all but in reality & most especially in our type of clime, an injury to one is more to that person as those not affected directly are just mere spectators. My thought anyway. I come in peace.

Actually sir... With regards to national growth and economic impact, it is a massive and ridiculous INJURY to all!

This is one of the main reasons food production has diminished across the nation leading to higher costs of food items and a looming food crisis.

Shall we pretend that the choice of foreign investors to avoid Nigeria is unrelated to the same issue?!!

Guy, it's an injury to the entire nation, and like a gangrenous sore, it is spreading and killing the nation.

MyVILLAGEpeople:
Wike looks older than Jonathan

True... Yet Jonathan senior the guy o.

Majesty7:
Government can't do everything. They also need the support of her citizens. Now ask yourself. Do the government enjoy the support of most citizens in those affected areas? Take IPOB for instance. Most of their local communities supports them. How do you want the government to function effectively? Let's discuss

You are not even being honest to yourself.

Even in the North, bandits and terrorists enjoy support of locals.

That is not the question or point... The real question is WHY?!!

What would make people turn to criminal elements and perceive them as Robin Hoods?!!

Simple... The government in question has alienated the very citizens from them via corruption and poor leadership.

You can't compel loyalty or demand respect... You earn it!

What has government really done to earn the respect of the people they are leading?!!

Have we really had a respectable and transparent government across the nation since Obasanjo left office?!!


Learn to say the truth as it is.

LOVEALAIGBO:
That thing you quoted is a crass Igbo-hating bigot....ignore him!

They have a false sense of smug satisfaction that Igbo states were mentioned in the advisory and their hope is that the south-east will be abandoned and decimated economically while lots of FDIs will be cornered by the south-west/Yorubaland!

This is 'one Nigeria'!

That's shameful and despicable... What a pity!

flokii:
Oga.. let them allow State Police and enact flexible gun policy for citizens to bear arms..

Nobody has monopoly of violence.. those picking up arms and doing kidnapping are doing so because citizens aren't armed.. all those yeye IPOBs go smell their nose.

If I get licensed gun for eample, one bagger go come near me say wetin?.

In the US, the citizens bear arms (though has it downsides) but you don't see likes of Fulanis going about kidnapping there. The ones that do mall shootings end up getting killed by owners of guns before Police will come in to calm the situation.

Is state policing or self defense right up to you or your fellow citizens?!!

Why not channel these words and energies to the right places (Eg. Your Senate) rather than indulging in ethnic bashing or trying to isolate your own state and region from the national cancer, like it won't eventually spread to your area?!!!

Nigerians should know who their real enemies are, rather than fighting themselves.

Do you think any serious administration or government can't tackle this insecurity in a month?!!

If military were to take over today, do you think even Boko Haram or Ipob will cough after just one week?!!

Let's focus on the truth instead of beating around bushes.

EleventhWeirdo:
And what is funny about the fact that investors would be discouraged from coming here? Are you guys even OK at all. Election loss has fried some of you guys' brains and you now reason inversely

You are barking up the wrong tree bro...

Whether he laughs or you shed tears, both make no difference... None of you can do anything about these things.

Your influence was largely at electing proper leaders who listen to public outcry and are people-oriented... Beyond that, we are just either wailing or singing praises, both of which are meaningless.

Bottom line... Tinubu should stop the propaganda and get to work.

If insecurity is not totally checked across all states, no sensible investor is coming here... No foreign organization will risk it, no matter how much they stand to gain financially.

Safety is the main foundation of a thriving economy.

FOJEM:
Shey na America throw una for dust? Abi na una use una hand through una self for dust!
The American Government is impartial and objective in this matter.
Truth indeed is bitter!

Don't carelessly miss the point, please.

He was trying so hard to separate his region from the facts above as though that means anything to a potential investor.

The truth I am pointing out is that insecurity in any region taints other regions within the same geographical region or nation.

Seriously tho... The stress of leadership aside, Wike is aging very badly.

Goodluck Jonathan, in spite of all the abuse and insults while he led an ailing nation remained fresh till he handed over... Even Buhari didn't age this badly.

flokii:
Port Harcourt sef no safe like that o.. except they'll get escorts.

South West still remains the most peaceful region in Nigeria, West Africa and Africa..

Yoruba my head.. proud to be omoluabi.

You don't understand...!

An injury to one is an injury to all...!

Is Southwest shielded or demarcated from other regions?!! Is the region a separate nation?!!

America has merely succeeded in tossing the entire nation into the mud above, including the Southwest.

Not only did they paint the nation black, they equally threw in more division into the works, which people like you have chosen to lap on.


Instead of you to be perturbed and ashamed that your nation is being blacklisted for terrorism, you are content to segregate and remove your region as if that makes any difference to foreign investors... SMH.

Make una dey use una brain abeg

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Tell the US that their advice is needed in Ukraine

Be ashamed of yourself for making such a statement...!

Ukraine is at war, yet still somewhat safer than most parts of Nigeria.

How can a nation not at war be losing hundreds of lives on a near monthly basis?!!

iwaeda:
Tinubu UNGA appeal in the mud or so. How can investors stay in unsafe environments.

You can just imagine...!

You are busy making noise upandan abroad and lying shamelessly instead of putting your house in order.

The only reason insecurity has grown to this disgraceful level is because of poor and absent leadership from state to national!

A proper leader on assuming office, would change the nation's security apparatus, give them room to work and give them one month ultimatum to sanitize the nation's security or be fired.

Insecurity is currently Nigeria's biggest challenge and it is shameful how it degenerated so badly under Buhari, a whole retired army general.

Sigh... How come no one ever issues traveling advisory to people visiting or relocating to a nation with the highest gun-related and violent killings on earth?!!


I mean... The facts don't lie...!

A nation not at war or battling insurgency shouldn't have such ridiculous death numbers.

The hypocrisy of it all is unnerving.

Sigh... Tinubu can't even hire intelligent liars.

How is it that old man Lai Mohammed is a better Liar than Ajuri Ngelale??!


...And why should ringing a fvcking bell even be blown out of proportion?!! How does it even affect the plight of the average Nigerian citizen, home and abroad?!!
