Religious fanatical bigots like you are worse then those extremists that you are crying about.

There is no fanatical bigotry in what I have said. I have only stated the facts. In Islam, the punishment for apostasy is death. And it is there clearly in the Hadits of Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. It is not something I have invented.

It is a direct command narrated by Ibn Abbas in Sahih al-Bukhari 6922: "Whoever changes his religion, kill him."

So how am I a bigot to state that Islam brooks no "dissent" and is a one way street where you can enter freely but can only exit by death? Instead of making accusations, state your facts.

Shimran:
Muslims are not decent and are one way streets cos they disagree with salvation (an innocent soul dying for punishment of other's sin)?

Good

What I meant was dissent and not decent. A Muslim can only leave Islam as a dead body due to the Islamic position on Apostasy.

Sahih al-Bukhari 6922: "Whoever changes his religion, kill him."

Sahih al-Bukhari 6878 and Sahih Muslim 1676: "...a life for a life, a married person whoncommits adultery, and one who leaves his religion and separates from the community."

While you may argue that Surah Al-Baqarah (2:256) states thus: "There is no compulsion in religion", take time to examine the context properly and you will see that it applies only to entry and not exit from Islam.

So it is a one way street, You have a choice to enter but none to exit. It is not a question of decency. It is a question of "dissent". Dissenters and deserters in Islam are seen as apostates worthy of death.

NOETHNICITY:
Embracing Islam after an open hearted research is very normal. Same happened to me. You can’t miss the objective facts and evidence if you approach with an open mind.
It’s not about dreaming and getting called in a vision while asleep. It’s about objective evidence!

It is difficult to find anyone who would genuinely do open hearted research and renounce Christianity to embrace Islam. Islam is a one way street that brooks no desent and no retreat. Islam recommends death for apostasy and offers no guarantee of salvation, no matter what the apologists try to spin about it. Moderate Muslims are only being accommodated for numerical strength, the true face of Islam are the fundamentalists.

$23 billion jump? The investors deserve transparency, not another story of the rich getting richer while the masses struggle.

Dangote appears ro be selling less than 5% of the total shares for the Refinery. He is a business man and will think of himself first. It is normal.

Never knew Omotola had Fish brain

Avoid insulting people; it is a hallmark of limited intelligence.

Omotola did what was right and expected under the circumstances. Ollie said he was a producer, not that he was just another artist in the same production. Omotola cannot be expected to take on roles beyond what was she sogned up for. It is notbin all situations that busy bodies get rewarded.

Who is Michael Hart and why do we care about what he says?

Michael H. Hart is an American author, astrophysicist and white nationalist. He is mostly known for his first published book titled "The 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History".

Hart once proposed that America be segregated across racial lines so that there is the White, Black and Hispanic areas.

Samantha125:
Imagine a magistrate waking up early in the morning to preside over a transport fare case...🤦🤦🤦

The Police woman is not being entirely honest about such matters. A lady who collects transport money from a man and fails to visit him may have changed her mind for several reasons including inconvenience and fears for her safety. In such circumstances, even if the promise to visit is established and tied to the money received, it is at best a breach of agreement or contract. That is a civil matter and not criminal.

To prove that the matter is obtaining under false pretense as the Police woman stated, the man has to prove that the lady never had the intention to visit at all and collected the money with fraudulent intent. And the man has to prove that beyond reasonable doubt, which is not easy in this case.

Furthermore, if the overall intention is to have sexual relations with the lady who is not the man's wife, then the intention is immoral and against public policy. No Court will touch that case as a civil matter or allow the Police to criminalize it.

Your write up looks excellent and makes a case for Adebutu over Yayi. However, the truth is that political office should be about competence and not a reward for philanthropy or some other good you have done for the people or State. We often misunderstand the principles of governance in Africa. That is why a quite a number of the people that led revolts and moves for independence across Africa, saw the leadership of the emerging country as their right or reward for ousting the colonial masters. Examples include Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe and Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia, who believed they sacrificed for the liberation of the country and became "founding fathers" who literally saw their leadership of the country as their prize or reward for their sacrifice. That is why they often want to die there because they see it as a right, not a privilege and definitely not for service.

During the US war with Iraq & Afghanistan, elections were halted??

Those wars were not fought on US soil and not a single casualty occurred in the US. Ukraine is fighting a war of survival which is diffraction from the ones you are citing.

Diamond098454:
That girl is very selfish she should have called off the wedding earlier than coming to the church to disgrace the young man and his family

You cannot pass judgment or reach such conclusions until you have heard the whole story. As you could see from the short video clip, the girl was not speaking up clearly and appeared to be reserved but it was clear she did not want to go ahead with the wedding. Her position on the matter is not likely to have been unnoticed by the groom but some men can be very persuasive and even disregard objections in attempts to have their way. The guy did not behave like someone entirely shocked by the girl's actions.

During the US war with Iraq & Afghanistan, elections were halted??

The United States waslr with Iraq and Afghanistan did not occur in the US territory and not a battle for survival on the scale of the Ukraine-Russia War. How many people died on US soil from the war and how many properties and buildings in the US were destroyed from the Uraq and Afghanistan Wars? The answer is zero. Normal life in the US was not affected at all by the war. Now compare that to the Ukraine situation.

Much ado over nothing! The girl called him by his first name, and he corrected her politely. The truth is, even though I am a 'first name' calling advocate, I was surprised she called him Tony given that they were in a professional environment.

I think she must have watched his previous interactions and heard people call him by his first name. So she thought it was okay to call him Tony.

A graduate trainee in the midst of other graduate trainees in a general interaction with the Group Chairman, and the said trainee proceeding to address the Chairman by his first name in Nigeria is a big no no. You need to realize that calling someone by first name is indicative of a level of familiarity, or social capital.

Tony Elumelu is the Group Chairman and the apex of the bank's power structure. In corporate Nigeria, title and rank are well respected. Furthermore, he is not a young man like Mike Zuckerberg that you can take the liberty of addressing by first name.

Even in Western cultures, there is a "First Meeting" rule and using a first name requires implicit permission. Since this was their first formal interaction, the graduate trainee did not have the social capital to assume familiarity.

The situation is further complicated by the fact that this is a general and recorded meeting with over 4,000 graduate trainees, who can get the wrong impression on how to address their Group Chairman. The ideal thing for the young woman to have done was to address Tony simply as "Sir" and not even "Mr. Elumelu".

Adeleke Ademola – There is Nothing to Celebrate Here

By: Deji Yesufu

If we are going to use Awolowo as the standard, then no Governor in Nigeria present or past measures up. The truth is we are just doing comparatove management of what we have. A Governor expecting people to celebrate him for paying salaries and building roads from allocations received from Abuja is a really sad situation but then people will readily tell you there are some that even refuse to pay salaries or build roads. The Nigerian populace are treated as not naturally deserving anything by the Politicians, and whatever they get, they should be thankful for it. That is not governance, but do we really understand governance? Our default is monarchy, where the king rules over everyone without regard for laws and rights and everyone is his property. That is the mindset of our politicians.

AustineE1:
This is simply an admission that they rig out whom they want to rig out regardless of what and who they voters want. Wike has even indicted himself by saying that if they needed to win at all cost,he would have been there. He has now cleared every doubt and no wonder our judiciary is now in a state of mess.
Posterity will never be on the side of Tinubu and Wike,when history beckons,they will be remembered for all the wrong reasons.
Is only in '3rd world nations',that political actors pride themselves with the ability to corrupt an institution or a system and get away freely with it.
It is indeed,a mark of a 'banana republic',my heart bleeds!

Wike is the guilty party here and not Tinubu because the Presidebt apparently was not interested in.winning at all cost. It is Wike that is admitting to hia availability for the task and the possibility of engineering Electoral victory at all cost.

This make me remember a video on tiktok, a bride to be and her friends was ask... Can you date a man that beat you any given time, the bride is the only one that stand saying I will change him... Sometime they see the sign but ignore it... I made a vow with myself that if am dating any lady and something lead to something I slap her that will be the end of our relationship... This have make me loose more than 5 ladies.. Because I belive if we ignore that and beg each other for forgiveness it will repeat it self

You have a good point but you need to work on yourself regarding anger issues or self discipline. Having a record of raising you hands against 5 women consecutively in relationships with you is not a good sign. Let it be that if it is getting to the point you are worked up and moved to hit them, end the relationship. Do not hit them because the moment you do, you have crossed a line and become violent.

Veteran actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has sparked a fresh debate about the economics of Nigerian cinema.
Speaking about her movie Mother's Love, Omotola revealed that the film generated ₦103 million at the cinema, but the producers reportedly ended up with only ₦22 million.
The revelation highlights the significant difference that can exist between a film's headline box-office figure and the amount eventually received by its producers.
A movie's cinema revenue is typically shared among different players, including exhibitors, distributors and other stakeholders, while production, marketing and distribution expenses can further reduce the final returns.
Omotola did not provide a full breakdown of the ₦81 million difference.
Nevertheless, her comments have renewed questions about revenue sharing, production costs and the profitability of theatrical releases in Nollywood.
For audiences, a movie crossing the ₦100 million mark may appear to be a huge financial success.
But as Omotola's experience shows, the box-office figure may only tell part of the story.
From the business of entertainment, we now move into the more controversial side of the industry, where social media battles, allegations and legal disputes continue to dominate conversations.

If she is the producer of the movie who financed everything including the marketing, and only distributed through the cinemas, she is expected to get between 30% to 35% of the gross which is around N31 to N36 million before tax. If the cinema.as did the marketing for the movie, the costs will eat into her share but the N22 million is nonetheless quite low.

It has been a thing of pain to the women over the neglect they are receiving from the Abuja men for not making advances on them.

According to the lady, she said that the women have done all they could to meet up to the demand of the men yet they are not toasting them.

The Senator should be arrested and charged to Court so that he can better explain his statements to the Judge. Some irresponsible politicians think that anything that comes out if their mouth has qualified privileges or should be taken as political rhetoric.

What he said in the video recording was very clear and it is against the law. And he was fully aware that he was being recorded.

The problem with the opposition in Nigeria is that they are often empty upstairs,whoch is not surprising because most of them are people displaced from the national banquet table who are thus aggrieved and looking for all means to come back to get their share on the table.

Governors are elected to govern their States andnthatnis where they are number one. Therefore, a foreign delegation at the Federal level can be led by anyone appointed to do so by the President. The Electoral mandate of the Governors does not extend to that and the ADC spokesman and his cohorts should know that. Criticism just for criticism sake is sometimes annoying.

EFCC PRESS STATEMENT

Why EFCC Froze Osun State's Government Account


source

The EFCC excuse reads like a child's joke. If they are alarmed about funds movement and believe it may affect their investigation, then the right thing to do is approach the Court for the order to freeze the account. EFCC cannot resort to making themselves the Court in this matter. There action is ultra vires.

News1234:
https://thenews-chronicle.com/breaking-adelekes-fears-come-true-as-efcc-freezes-osun-government-account/

EFCC has no power in law to freeze a State Governments account. I am surprised that the bank agreed to their demand. The Osun State Government should sue both the bank and EFCC.

He should get a competent lawyer, who should approach the Court to set aside the order or ask it to remove him from the list because such order or his inclusion was obtained on withheld and misleading information.

Macphenson:
So Tinubu can actually hold governors accountable and his miscreants are all over the media space saying we should hold our governors accountable.

This Osun state issues proves that Tinubu deliberately allowed governors to be looting with reckless abandon.

EFCC pls look into the activities of my state governor Hope Uzodinma.

EFCC has no power to freeze a State Governments account. It is only a court of competent jurisdiction that can do that. Let us not encourage illegality.

SamuraiXXX:
She first needs to prove that the property actually belongs to her husband

She does not carry as much burden as the family carries to justify any entitlement to the assets. First she cannot be chased or locked out of the matrimonial home. All banks accounts, cars and other assets in the name of the husband are easily proven along with all assets in their household by default. The law will presume assets in their custody as belonging to the husband or couple ba ked with Affidavit even if receipt is lost. Anyone seeking to claim it from outside bears the burden of proof.

Once she is registered as the administrator of the estate by the Probate Court it be one uphill battle for the family because as a statutory wife, customs cannot override her rights and that of the children mandated by the law.

Nigerian Bank shares have historically proven not to be that profitable. Otedola does not need that much to have control. There are other investments that can match or exceed the returns. The Adebutu family have overwhelming control of Wema Bank, possessing in excess of 60% of the shares but it is not in the category of First Bank.

The juice in Nigerian banks is not the profitability of the stock but leveraging your control to benefit your other businesses or business areas.

If they are statutorily married, she should quickly approach the Probate Registry or the Courts to secure the late husband's properties for her and her sons. Once she gets Court order or appointed administrator of the late husband's estate, the in-laws are restricted except they want to be held in contempt of the Court order.
