PoliticsRe: Lack Of Planning Behind Nigeria’s Fuel Price Hikes — Peter Obi by axponline: 6:25pm On Mar 13
I live in the US and I know for a fact that gas has gone from $2.57 to $3.57 per gallon. I dont
know where you are getting 30c.
PoliticsRe: Lack Of Planning Behind Nigeria’s Fuel Price Hikes — Peter Obi by axponline: 5:59pm On Mar 13
This guy just talks for the sake of talking. The price hike in petrol affects many countries. Even in the US, petrol has increased by $1 per gallon. No one is blaming the govt. Market forces are determining the price.

TravelRe: Lagos To Abuja, Uyo, Abia Etc Now Over 60k One Way By Road by axponline: 2:59pm On Dec 20, 2024
Haba, this pure greed on the part of transporters.

60k for 15 passengers = 900k for 1 trip. Even if they use 100 liters at 1100 per liter, fuel cost is only 110k leaving almost 800k.
How much do they pay the driver & staff and other operational expenses to justify making gross profit of 800k per trip.
If the bus does 3 round trips a week , thats 800k * 2 * 3 = 4.8m gross profit per week per bus.
No one can convince me it takes even 1m to run a bus (all expenses included) per week.
Exploitation of the highest order.
PoliticsRe: How Much Is Petrol Being Sold In Your Area? by axponline: 3:29pm On Sep 18, 2024
Comparatively
Here (Atlanta), petrol costs about $3.7 per gallon. I gallon = 3.74 liters. So we pay $3.7/3.74 approx $1 per liter.
Using current exchange rate of 1650 and Ngn1200 per liter, Nigerians pay 1200/1600 = $0.75 per liter.

PoliticsValue Of A University Paper Certificate In US by axponline(op): 1:10pm On Oct 09, 2023
I applied for job here in the US and got it. They asked for my credentials and I submitted Unilag degree certificate.
They said they don't accept degree certificate as proof. They actually called Unilag and asked confirmation that I attended Unilad and also for my transcript before they allowed me start work.

So all those shouting certificate forgery etc, In the US the paper certificate is not accepted as proof.

Instead of asking where did BAT get the paper from, the question should be BAT, since you gave us this paper, let us call the school and verify that you actually attended.

I hope this helps some folks.
PS
Not a mainline BAT supported.
PoliticsRe: Tinubu Certificate Scandal: Constitutional Implications By Aisha Mohammed Agashi by axponline: 8:25pm On Oct 08, 2023
socialmediaman:
Let's see if what Tinubu did was legal or illegal

We'll settle this matter right now using this simple test:

Go to the ATM machine and withdraw N10,000 from your bank account

It's your money right? Your hard earned money, nobody else can lay claim to it

Make sure to copy the serial numbers, then destroy the money or throw it in the sea, in essence, lose the money

Go home and use your printer to print N10,000 with the same serial numbers

Its not the same at all. Naira notes are legal tender(documents) whereas CSU says their certificate has no legal standing. It is ceremonial.

Now go to the bank and deposit the money you printed

There's your answer grin
PoliticsRe: How Are They Going To Remove Tinubu From Chair? by axponline: 10:18pm On Oct 06, 2023
seanfer:
The David Lyon case was before the electoral act was amended.
The case started from the High Court and it was initiated by a PDP Member. You can search for more information concerning that case. It was a Pre-election case and it moved from high court to Appeal and the Supreme Court deliver judgment a day before he was sworn in. In this Atiku case it is different because the case in the Supreme Court is not a pre-election matter but a post election matter and the case didn’t start from a court but a tribunal.
Also be aware that if forgery has been established against Tinubu, the case can’t just appear at the Supreme Court without starting from the high court. This is the position of the constitution, the Supreme Court is not a court of first instance.
This is absolutely right. The forgery case (if any) must start in a high court. It cannot start at the supreme court. No high court will hear the case while BAT is still the sitting president. As I have said many times, a person is not guilty until proven so in a court of competent jurisdiction.
PoliticsWhy The CSU Certificate Issue May Not Mean Much At The End Of The Day by axponline(op): 9:56pm On Oct 04, 2023
At the end of the day, the Tinubu forgery of cert issue may not result in anything because there is due process that must be followed. Its not automatic.
Note the following

1. Under the constitution, a person is presumed innocent until proven guilty. So despite what folks may think or say about forged certificates, Mr Tinubu is presumed innocent until found guilty of forgery.

2. To be found guilty of forgery, a person with locus standi must file a suit of forgery against him at the High Court. Supreme court will not hear a case of forgery that has not passed through the lower courts. Its not enough to make allegations at the supreme court hearings.

3. The high court case must be completed with a guilty verdict before this can be useful anywhere

4. The constitution also says that a siting president is immune from prosecution. i.e how do you file a forgery case against a sitting president. It can't be done. You must wait until he is either defeated in 2027 or he has served his second term before anyone can bring a case of forgery against him.

If a case of forgery is brought against him now , the court will throw it out because he is immune to prosecution be virtue of being a sitting president.

The on going supreme court hearings is not the place to bring charges of forgery.

I hope I am right in my analysis. Lawyers pls verify.

PoliticsRe: What CSU Documents Really Say About Tinubu' Studentship, Age, Gender - FIJ by axponline: 3:10pm On Oct 03, 2023
I think what many people tend to forget is that an allegation of forgery is not enough in a court of law. It must be proved with facts and evidence
i.e CSU swear under oath that the cert is forged and not issues by them
or
the person who signed it swear under oath that she did not sign it.
Any thing short of this constitutes mere allegation which are not evidence of anything.
I know it looks like the man forged something to present to INCE but INEC will need proof before they can agree that they accepted a fake degree.
So I would advise Atiku and team to get sworn affidavits from CSU or the Elonora woman to back up this forgery claim. Otherwise, all is in vain.
PoliticsRe: See The Reason Why "Amoda Sangodele" Is Trending On Twitter by axponline: 12:03pm On Sep 26, 2023
NIgeria does not need this type of distraction at this time. If Tinubu is not who he says he is or forged his credentials, let us get rid of him and have another election with credible people. Thee are many young intelligent and credible men & women who I would gladly vote for regardless of tribe. Enough is enough.
I say this without sentiment. Many people in the SW feel the same.
PoliticsRe: Chicago State University: Nigerians Will Be Shocked Over Tinubu’s Records– Atiku by axponline: 1:38pm On Sep 23, 2023
The only way in my opinion for BAT to be disqualified on this issue is if CSU says he gained admission using fraudulant means/documents and therefore they are withdrawing his degree.
Then he has nothing to fall back on.
PoliticsRe: Chicago State University: Nigerians Will Be Shocked Over Tinubu’s Records– Atiku by axponline: 1:30pm On Sep 23, 2023
Question: Did Tinubu attend & graduate from CSU. YES, that is never in question and has been proven over and over. He has a degree from CSU so he is qualified to be president as per the constitution.

Question: How did he get admission to CSU.
We don't know but he must have satisfied CSU somehow that he was eligible for admission.

Question: Does the constitution say anything about how to gain admission or where to get the cert. NO.
As far as the constitution is concerned, you can sit under a tree in your compound and study for and write WAEC (and many people have done so). So long as you have a legitimate WAEC cert or higher.

Question: Presenting a forged certificate to INEC. I know it is an offense but I suspect the time for that question has past. The accusation of forgery must be more than a mere accusation. It must be proven in a court of law and BAT convicted of forgery to be of any use.

My 2 cents worth.
PoliticsRe: Chicago State University: Nigerians Will Be Shocked Over Tinubu’s Records– Atiku by axponline: 1:09pm On Sep 23, 2023
If as a result of this action by Atiku, BAT is internationally embarrassed or even removed from office, I don't think Atiku should ever expect to get 1% vote in the SW in case of a re-run.
His best bet is supreme court declared him president if BAT is found wanting.
Come 2027, he will be served very serious breakfast in the SW.
Afterall, why is he hounding BAT to death. Because he cannot get to be President otherwise. I am really beginning to question the man and his motives. I was a staunch Atiku supported is 2019 against BAT & Buhari .

YouAreNobody:
APC and INEC ruined their case so well that even the judges were disappointed. Their hands are too tied to give them a pass. They both had just 2 witnesses to present, in a country with over 200 million people. They tendered documents pulled off Nairaland with okra soup stains on them.

— They submitted a letter from the US embassy written to the former IG of police, Tafa Balogun in 2003, but couldn’t find anyone to back up that letter, not even the first letter that Balogun wrote to the embassy!

— The FBI attaché who signed the letter is still alive and well but they didn’t bring him as a witness.
They also didn’t bring anyone from the US to testify on Tinubu’s case, not even the lawyers or law firm that represented his money forfeiture case. They brought a Nigerian politician with no license to practice in the state of Illinois to come to tell us about Tinubu’s case in Chicago. No be ment?

Ladies and gentlemen, as of July 7, 2023, APC, INEC, and Tinubu’s lawyers cannot prove how Tinubu won the election and that’s disturbing.

Let us see how the judges will rule on this case with no evidence from the respondents.
NOTE:
APC & INEC are not required to prove anything. INEC has conducted the election, declared a winner and published the results. What other proof are you looking for. LP & PDP as the complaining parties need to prove and provide concrete evidence that the results published by INEC are not correct substantially. Tendering boxes of documents is not proof. Who do they expect to extract the proof from all the boxes. The justices? If they did not analyze all the documents in the boxes to extract the required proof, they have failed in my opinion.

People should take it easy and understand what they are reading. Those appointed are SPECIAL ASSISTANTS not ADVISORS.

For instance he appointed SPECIAL ASSISTANT - Domestic. That is like his Chief steward or butler.
Many of these people have been working for him (assisting) way before he contested election.
They have no position in the Federal Govt. They work directly for & with the President
