Pierocash:I dearly the woman should have considered her husband and the nuclear family as a whole. It is excusable that the plan to buy land and develop herself indirectly helps the family. However when you read the whole story and the fact that almost all items in the house were bought by her while the husband earned more, then her thinking becomes reasonable. If a husband is not committed to the family, then he cannot expect the wife to be committed to the family. A husband arguing submission should first demonstrate love. It is arguable the man never loved the woman and the family in the first instance. |
Chucks13:The man is misinformed. His daughter is not his property. That is why if he were to kill her himself, he has a case to answer. So whoever killed her if the investigation reveals murder, the case is State versus the killer or killers. It is not Mr. Habila or Habila family versus the killers. So he should go and sit down. It is part of the lack of education about the law that our Police have. Someone commits a crime, for example rape, and then the Police is asking the complainant if he wants to press the case or not. That is nonsense. A crime is different from a civil wrong or tort in law. A crime is an offense against the State. It is not a personal offense that you can forgive except you choose not to report it. |
AMINDA:Police have not concluded their investigation and persons of interest or interested parties are swearing affidavits up and down. The father of the dead girl swore affidavit. The friend swore affidavit. God knows how many people around that have been compelled to swear affidavits. It appears someone is trying to lock them in on a particular account or story at the risk of perjury so they don't change the story later. Someone definitely is trying to interfere with Police investigation in the matter. |
Ofunaofu:Umatilla, it is not you that will tell the Police to do their job or how to do their job. When you give the impression you are directing them on how to do their job and giving them orders, the implication is that you are controlling the outcome. |
oz4real83:Don't be hasty in judgment. Let the man produce evidence of the State Government sponsoring bandits on Hajj first. Anyone that makes a public allegation should be able to support it with facts. |
LoveyouLord:SCUML is the Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering, a department under the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) responsible for registering, regulating, and monitoring Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs) in Nigeria to combat money laundering and terrorism financing. The essence of the SCUML Certificate is to show the comoany has registered with EFCC and is under obligation to report transactions above certain limit to assist the foght against money laundering and terrorism financing. A SCUML Certificate is not evidence of official registration to allow anyone to run investment schemes or collect deposits from people. If anyone is marketing investment and securities to you, ask for evidence of registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and then verify accordingly. If they are not registered with SEC or CBN and they are collecting deposits and marketing investments, then you are on your own if you listen to them. |
Kalashnikov49:Are you so eager to throw tribal jabs that you are nlind to the facts? How many South Wester leaders or Yoruba names can you find among the CSO actors? Checking the names listed, I can see Amb. Philip Okwaggbe, Amadi Chindi, Ejiroghene Akporume Ovie, Chiamaka Chukwuebuka A., Balarabe Muhammadu, Idongesit Edidiong Etop, Josiah Josephine Nanbam, Funmilayo Eunice Obadare, Nosakhare E. Ehisogie, Tamarapreye Ebiowei Godwin, Adajinege Orahachi, Chubado Barkindo Demba, Abatcha Babakura H and Adda Manga Peters. Those are clearly not Yoruba or South West names with the exception of Funmilayo Eunice Obadare. The fact that these purported CSO groups have dabbled I to this matter does not do Gbaja any good. Anyone can read between the lines. |
Gboss247:The last major structural scarcity-driven national gridlock where fuel was physically unavailable occurred in September 2024.During that crisis, NNPCL officially hiked the price from ₦617 per litre up to ₦897 per litre. Because of the acute shortage at the time, desperate motorists queued for days or bought from independent black-market vendors for anywhere between ₦1,000 and ₦1,200 per litre. Verifiable Source: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn49d1zwz8wo Before the September 2024 scarcity, bottleneck events occurred between April/May and July/August 2024 but prices peaked at between ₦1,000 and ₦1,200 per litre and not above. Never anywhere near the ₦5,000 per litre you claim. Dangote came on board on 15th September 2024 and upon its initial direct sales, prices hovered between ₦899 and ₦970 per litre, which is slightly above the price hike by NNPCL. In December 2025, Dangote temporarily crashed the gantry price down to ₦699 per litre to force competition against fuel importers. So please provide sources for your comment except it came from your need to justify your pay as a hired keyboard warrior. |
Tolumiide:I have not seen any positive benefits to Nigerians from Dangote's entry into the Petroleum Refining business expect increments in his net worth on the Forbes list. His cement business led to Nigeria s paying higher than usual for cement and that is about repeating itself on the Petrol issue. |
treesun:There is no point changing the uniform. Any change will raise issues of neutrality and certainly be controversial. |
cule7:Some Nigerians may be gullible but not all of them. The Presidency and Chief of Staff are straining the strands of credulity to explain that the Agency operated by Adeyemi is unknown to them and without official backing. The facts that accounts were opened at CBN, office was secured at Federal Secretariat and budgetary provisions were made for the Agency or Commission as it may be clearly raises the bar against the Presidency's arguments. And to say that in a criminal case of that nature filed in November 2025, more than 7 months ago just got scheduled to late July 2026 for hearing is plain unbelievable. |
Righteousness2:The saying is correct, but it does not lie in his mouth to say such. Does he himself earn honest and reasonable wages from his job as Pastor or he see the church income as belonging to him? A Pastor buying Tesla from church income and even displaying same on Social Media cannot tell a church h drummer to forfeit being paid. Both are driven by materialism and content to get their benefits in this world. |
cr7lomo:Dating does not equate to a relationship involving sex. Sex also comes with emotions. It is mot just a pure mechanical action, and it's involvement clouds judgment and is seen also as a form of investment, particularly by women. So when talking about dating for fun, it is about having relationship without clouding it with any long term expectations or investments that will make it difficult for you to walk away. |
Sugarboyy:It is a fallacy of reasoning to say that because someone cannot come up with his own solution to an issue, he should not critique any proposed solution. If science had been working like that, we wouldn't be where we are today. Peer review would be pointless and you wouldn't be holding the phone in your hand to type what you did. If your proposed solution or idea cannot face critiquing then keep it to yourself. It will be a big nistto adopt such idea. And that is one of the reasons we have lots of problems. Half baked ideas and solutions proposed by those near the corridors of power in a patronage system that sees critiquing as opposition and therefore mandates silence. If someone came through the First Lady or the SSG to propose an idea, who would want to expose the flaws and not risk the wrath of the promoters? That is how bad, ineffective and inefficient projects and solutions get dumped down on the masses who end up being the lovers. |
kellidoo:They are being rewarded with Ammesty and Ransom Payments. What more encouragement do they need from the Government? |
Sonnobax15:That was not how he left Israeli custody. He was released in January 2026, but suffered a life-threatening brain hemorrhage just two days after walking free. He underwent complex emergency brain operations, which required the removal of part of his skull. He however alleges that the conditions he was subjected to while being held by the Israelis led to his medical crisis. |
yarimo:Not commendable at all. The Court already decided the matter on merits and is functus officio on the matter. The excuse of a necessity party seeking fair hearing is flimsy as a basis to declare the prior judgment a nullify. PMP is not a registered political party known to INEC and any dispute on logo would at best be a trademark issue for which PMP is free to sue. Dispute over logo cannot be a basis for deregistration of a political party when PMP has not even established legal ownership of the logo via trademark. This is just another instance of judicial rascality thinly veiled as legitimate action. |
correctguy101:I cannot imagine how abusing a baby doll is expected to relief stress. These are not dolls of animals, shapes or aliens but babies, human babies. It is just plain crazy to think of the mindset behind such a thing. |
dominique:The couple separate for years without formal divorce is likely an indication that there was no bitterness and acrimony and both didn't have objectives of engaging with another partner at the time. Most likely grew apart and the man left to his ways. Then Helen came in, quite beautiful young lady who is also married but engaged with the separated Dr. Ajayi. Because at the initial stage, Helen herself was still married, she cannot push the man for divorce and it appeared Ajayi's wife left them at peace. When something is not a pain, most will forget about it. That is what likely happened until the man died. The presence of a will in favour of Helen and her children appear on the surface to matter and show the intention of the dead man. But the Marriage Act as a statute overrides it. The dead man cannot disinterest the legal wife and children. |
Sheuns:There is no doubt that most Nigerians are in pains. I use most be ause to be honest, there are some that are benefiting in the current situation. However, saying it is Nigerians vs Tinubu and APC is a mischaracterization that is likely to lead nowhere based on the options or alternatives that Nigerians have to choose from. It is unfortunate that Nigerians are hamstrung in being able to choose a leader that is for the people, with the genuine interest of the people at heart a dnis not a product of the corrupt system with enough baggage to make any difference. Is it Atiku, who is a product of the system, whose rise to wealth as a customs officer raises questions and who is ready to wine and dine with any party without regard to principles all in a bid to achieve his personal ambition of become President and fulfil the prophecy of his marabouts? Or is it Obi, another product of the system catapulted to wealth under the patronage system of the military era, whose stewardship of Anambra failed to bestow any lasting positive legacies upon the State, a man whose association with parties is not by loyalty to a cause or ideology but as a vehicle to achieve power and who is not a team player or consistent builder of systems and people? When I see people shouting g that Obi is the best choice we have and I see him masquerading as the messiah that deep inside, he knows he is not, I see another Buhari and weep for Nigeria. It is widely known own that for some high quality awards like Nobel Prize, there are years that some categories of awards may not be given because there is no one qualified enough and the award will mot be given for any other reason. Hmm... Fellow Nigerians, our messiah appears to be yet unborn. |
Cherrybae:First, when a Superior Court had issued an order staying proceedings, the Federal High Court has no justification for continuing to deliver judgment on the matter. Secondly, the provisions of Section 225 of the Electoral Act that the judgment cited only grants INEC the power to deregister parties that do not meet the requirements. Thus the deregistration is at the discretion of INEC. The law says "shall have the power to deregister for failure to comply" not that it "shall deregister for failure to comply. If INEC has not exercised the power by deregistering any party, the Court cannot compel or force INEC to do so. |
Penguin2:The provisions of Section 225 of the Electoral Act grants INEC the power to deregister political parties for not meeting some requirements. It does not mandate INEC to deregister them. It is at the discretion of INEC to exercise the power. That much should have been clear to Justice Lifu before he engaged in judicial rascality to mandate INEC to deregister. Such judgments can only bring the judiciary into disrepute. |
Gotocourt:Note that I am not defending any lack of i ternal democracy her, but to be honest, how many political parties in Nigeria really conduct primaries on a free and fair winner basis? Were Abubakar Atiku, Peter Obi and other presidential candidates in other parties for example elected by open, free and fair primaries or internal politicking and consensus arrangements? All the stepping down here and there, are they purely voluntary or negotiated? The problem is that most of our politicians across parties always like plating politics of loyalty and caucus. When the Governor or Presidebt is the automatic leader of the party and funding matters, it is not far from telling who calls the tunes for the piper. |
decatalyst:It is not arresting them that matters. It is what happens to them afterwards that will serve as deterrent or encouragement for the evil doers. |
Omowale2023:I am not encouraging bad behavior. I never said what she did was good. But to err is human. That is why despite decreeing that every soul that sinneth shall die, God did not condemn you to die without giving the option of redemption. There are people who turned out good today that started on a bad footing many years back. Eagerness to cast the first stone is not a sign of righteousness. I advised that the guy seek for God's guidance on the matter but you already concluded on final condemnation of the young woman. Are you wiser than God or you can envisage what God's response would be? |
Kuginzi:Dangote is not sincere. He is trying to take Nigerians for a ride and whipping up sentiments that importation licenses affect local production and trying to block them. Meanwhile he wants to be fleecing us all with higher prices. The Goverment should allow importation. If Dangote is serious, his prices should be the one discouraging importation and not Government policy. |
Omowale2023:Should Christ have continued with Peter after he denied him thrice? Is Rahab the harlot qualified to be in the ancestral lineage of Jesus? Or Ruth the Moabitess, who is from a tribe or group that God had warned the Israelites against marrying? The long and short is that human wisdom has its limits. Some of the people that end up being very loyal started on the wrong footing. It is never pointless asking God. |
Kdon2:Sometimes one wonders the values that form the core from which Kperogi and Co are operating. Tinubu defied tradition to appoint the Ribadu, a former Police AIG, as the National Security Adviser. It is a first against odds because the Military are not agreeable to a Policeman as NSA. Now, from all indications, has the NSA performed creditable in the face of the insecurity in the country? For the NSA to publicly refer to bandits and terrorists in the North as brothers go beyond a slip of the tongue to being a very serious blunder that would have seen the exit of some, particularly when you Ave a seemingly intractable security situation in the country. Is it that Kperogi and Co want the North to be NSA at all cost and without accountability or loyalty to the Government and yet they are comfortable to vilify Tinubu on Yoruba agenda at the same time? That would amount to double speak and hypocrisy. |
PulaPower:You claim Jesus was a myth yet it is by his physical death that you number your days. Your birth date is with reference to the Anno Domini (AD) yet you despise it. Anyway, the Bible says teach us to number our days so we can put our hearts to wisdom. When you despise your days, wisdom undoubtedly becomes far from you. |
Godfullsam:More than 50 percent of those jn Prison or Correctional Facilities in Nigeria are "Awaiting Trial" or detainees with ongoing trial. |
God1000:Staying in Nigeria and labeling America as a finished country is laughable. You must be a comedian. ![]() Please give us the context of the media headline or report you are quoting. Perhaps the person would prefer Iran, Saudi Arabia or Gaza as alternative? Because those are the places you keep championing on this forum, though I doubt if you would choose to live in any of them and raise your family there if granted immigratnt visa. |
