The main thrust of the Premium Times report is the incomparable humongous compensation for the "Cardoso Women" and their unprecedented influence on affairs in CBN. Surprisingly or unsurprisingly,
this responder carefully avoided those two key issues to focus on the qualifications and pedigree of the women. She should address the key issues and stop beating about the bush.

How can a single consultant at the level of a Deputy Director be earning 15 times the official remuneration of Depufy Directors? What was the yard stick used to determine such compensation? Furthermore the Premium Times piece talked about lack of compliance with regulations in the engagement and compensation of the "Cardoso Women" and this responder against carefully avoided that issue. Who is she trying to fool?

Power Rangers, Mines Marshalls, Forest Rangers, etc just show the failure of institutions in our country. Why duplicating functions here and there when we should be reducing costs and increasing efficiency and productivity? What is the use of Civil Defence Corps?

Nigeria is a Secular country and you are sponsoring a religious pilgrimage with State funds? When will you sponsor traditional worshipers also, so that you will be fair to all?

Moreover, the amount stated at N 551,502,142.84 million is far in excess of the correct amount if 46 people are sponsored at the rate of N 8,784,085.59 million each. The correct amount is N 404,067,937.14 which is around N 150 million lower than the stated amount.

One Year Anniversary: How Herbert Wigwe's sibling disrespect memories of late philanthropy


https://catachnewsng.com/2025/02/08/graveside-controversy-aigboje-aig-imoukhuede-under-fire-amid-calls-for-transparency-in-wigwe-family-dispute/

The OP must be an agent of lies and dishonesty. WY is your heading clear different and contrary to the article you are quoting, whose heading is Graveside Controversy: Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede Under Fire Amid Calls for Transparency in Wigwe Family Dispute.

Anyone who bothers to read the quoted article will see how wickedly the OP manipulated his reportage contrary to what is in the article. The villain in the news article quoted was Aig-Imoukhuede who used security details to manhandle Emeka Wigwe and locked the Wigwe family out of the graveside remembrance event. Yet the OP is reporting contrary. barrAkinlade or whatever your name is as the OP, you must be a wicked and vile individual.

this authority was bequeathed to states. Who now acts in behalf of the 'states'?
This is an ambiguity please explain further

The Constitution clearly says it is the States that can setup Shariah Courts and not individuals, religious groups or communities.

The agitation to setup Shariah Panels finds no basis in law or the Constitution. If any group is agitated about setting up Shariah Courta, they should go and talk to their House of Assembly members and the State Governor. The Sultan and his co-travellers should know better and stop disturbing us!

When they want to have their way elsewhere they remember the Constitution. But in their enclaves in the North, they ignore the same Constitution.

How many people have been killed on allegations of insulting Mohammad or the Quran? Does the Constitution allow such killings? How many cartons and bottles of beer have been destroyed, causing economic damage to others. Does the Constitution allow that? State resources are being used to build Mosques, conduct Ramadan Mass Weddings, send people to Mecca and fund Hisbah Police and yet the Constitution is clear that there shall be no "State Religion". The same Constitution you disrespect so much, you are now talking about using it in the Southwest.

He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. Go and fish out Deborah's killers and get Justice for the young woman before coming to disturb our peace, you band of hypocrites and murderers!

and what if the KJV is actually not authorized by king James and contains corrupted interpretations and verses of God's word?

I don't support the destruction or burning of it, or whatever may have happened but before you say he is misleading them why not verify if his statements have some truth to them.

Listening to the idiotic drivel from the man and his wife simply sows they might be mentally unbalanced. They claim God is a diety and an idol, Thatnis the reasoning of someone who doesn't believe in God. Such contrast with his other statements on "our maker" and points him out as confused.

The man mentions what he claims to be the heavenly name.of "their maker" and Jesus without stating the source. He is at best occultic. It is the practice of occults to have strange names for God and Jesus that they claim has been revealed to them by demons masquerading as angels.

I strongly doubt if he was ever a Pastor in the first instance. He may be another Olumba Olumba in the making.

drlaykay:
Stop misleading people with Bible verses that do not conform to the subject matter. There's nothing immoral about plaiting your hair or looking good in general.

This is mainly a cultural thing and your lack of exposure to other cultures has beclouded your judgement skills.

Sin does not necessarily equate to immorality and vice versa. What is moral or not is determined by the community or society you find yourself.

Some communities do not see premarital sex as immoral. Also in some communities, giving a wife for sex to enteetain guests is not seen as immoral. Yet all these are sins before God.

Sin is disobedience to God and not dependent on morality or immorality as defined by men. Plaiting your hair as a man or coloring it as a man or woman can be a sin before God.

Furthermore, Paul said in 1 Corinthians 10:23 and 1 Corinthians 6:12 that all things are permissible to me but not all things are profitable to me. Genuinely born again Christians are God's Children, Joint Heirs of the Kingdom with Christ and soldiers in God's Army. Anything capable of being an impediment in their journey with God should be avoided.

Can you imagine Prince William colouring his hair, making tattoos and carrying weave-on? Of course you cannot because it would be a ridicule to the British Crown. Now imagine the children of the Most High whose Kingdom is not even comparable to the British Crown seeking to live their lives anyhow and emulate the lives of unbelievers so that there is hardly any distinction between them?

For those who want to do all things while claiming to be Born Again Christians, how profitable are those things to you in your journey with Christ? Would you rather run your race with encumbrances that make you feel good or forgo them as a soldier limiting baggage so you can make good speed?

pongwa:
I disagree completely. In Oyo, the Lingua Franca is Yoruba and not English since the majority of the people being represented do not speak English. English as a medium of communication in that assembly Is just pLain stupid and retrogressive. The law can be transcribed into Yoruba so that the language barrier can be lifted

Did you bother to read the entire news report? I doubt it because how can you miss that the incident happened at the National Assembly and not the Oyo State House of Assembly. So will you recommend Yoruba as Lingua Franca at the National Assembly when there are other languages like Igbo, Hausa and Benin?

You need tobread and comprehend matters properly before commenting.

Wike is the biggest hypocrite in this country right now. Chai! 😀🤣

He's opposing it now because he's no longer a governor, And he knows that if there's State police, He wouldn't be able to intimidate the government and good people of Rivers with 'Federal might'.

A very typical Nigerian Politician not much different from the others. When you say politics is a game of interest, it is all about personal interest in Nigeria and that unfortunately is what drives a lot of political decisions in the country.

pongwa:
foolish bloggers with defeatist mentality. Is he an English man? Why make a fuss about his inability to speak English?

His ability to speak English is important because it is the medium of communication at the National Assembly. If a Lawmaker is unable to communicate properly, how does he effectively represent his people there?

Mind you, our laws are made and written in English and not Yoruba or any local language. So a lawmaker having difficulties with English is likely to have difficulties even understanding the law he is elected to be part of the makers.

Jim Okolo Joins Nigeria Delegation to Participate at Inauguration Ceremony of Trump

International election observer, Amb. Dr. Jim Okolo Chimezie, along with other Nigerian delegation, including the General Superintendent of Deeperlife Bible Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, gospel minister Nathaniel Bassey and host of others to participate at the inauguration ceremony of Donald Trump as the 47th President of the United States.

Trump, who is coming for a second term in office was inaugurated on Monday, succeeding Joe Biden whose tenure of office has just ended.

The colourful event which attracted world leader had Dr. Okolo, a UN accredited observer represent the election monitoring community.

Amb. Dr. Okolo, who is also the MD/CEO Jimez Petroleum Resources Limited used the opportunity of Trump's inauguration to meet with top officials of the just inaugurated administration to foster possible collaboration between Nigeria and the United States.

He has consistently been an advocate of close diplomatic ties between both countries to enable Nigeria tap from the huge potentials of the US especially in the area of energy, technology transfer, industrialization and security.

He had also taken part in observing the November election in which Trump won then Vice-President Kamala Harris who was the candidate of the Democrat.

Before his departure from Abuja to Washington, Amb. Dr. Okolo had been decorated by Trump Train Africa, a youth initiative as its Global Ambassador.

Speaking after his inauguration, Dr. Okolo said credible election has a synergy with good governance, justice and peace.

He expressed expressed hope that with a shared vision of pragmatic approach to good governance between Nigeria and Trump, Nigeria and indeed Africa will benefit a lot from the second term of Trump.

He said no country can exist in isolation as both need each other for strategic partnership.

Your heading or subject that Jim Okolo Led Nigerian Delegation is wrong, deceptive and misleading. If you want to do a promotional writeup for the guy, simply say that Jim Okolo took pictures with some people at the Trump Inauguration. Jim Okolo is not there to foster collaboration between Nigeria and the United States because henis not officially representing Nigerian in any capacity other than perhaps simply being a Nigerian. This kind of write up does not help the integrity of both the writer and Okolo at all.

She was once a "super independent woman", "super mum" and "boss lady" but she was dying in the inside. From battling depression to batting stress of raising kids alone, she ended it and left the same kids she took away from their father alone to suffer motherlessness. Women should learn to close their legs if they are not ready to raise children. If eventually they give birth to these children, they should stop fighting for what they can not do. Children need their fathers. She would be pretending online and showcasing fake smile and fake self hype without knowing that behind the fake smile lies an empty woman who was heavily depressed. Rip to her.

I see stupid and puerile comments here lacking in empathy. Anybody can suffer from depression regardless of circumstance. Even people in marriage suffer from depression. So what is your point? Did you know the woman and the whole story before you started your shallow analysis?

Single motherhood can come from a lot of reasons including divorce, deceased husband and irresponsible husband. The woman in fact may have no blame whatsoever in what led to being a single mother.

If you are not a born misogynist, then you need to thorough reorientation of your mind and to also develop empathy towards your fellow human being.

All these criminalization of defamation a waste of government resources and only meant for misuse by politicians and moneybags.

How can you order remand in Correctional Center pending investigation, arraignment/prosecution? So you are already punishing someone with incarceration simply based on a complaint made that is yet to be investigated? How just and fair is that? That is clearly a violation of his fundamental human rights to free speech because he is being punished without investigation.

“See my sister, I know you are waiting on the Lord to give you the right partner. Marriage is a beautiful thing, but as marriage never come, my sister, born pikin [have a child],”
she said.

Beware of Serpents and Satanic advisers. That is how the snake came to Eve that he knew God told them not to eat of a particular tree but they could...

If you are genuinely waiting on God, you don't do it with an alternative plan or Plan B. Sin does not work out God's righteousness or hasten His plans. Rather sin destroys. See what the mistake of Abraham with Hagar caused while waiting on God's promise? Do not let anyone decieve you. Be warned.

SmartyPants:
The gift was a little too much and his state indigenes are right to be upset unless it was from his pocket. The governor excerises financial control of the state resources in trust and on behalf of the people. There should be accountability.

I would much rather he offered her a scholarship to any Akwa Ibom institution of her choice with a decent allowance.

Governors in Nigeria are mostly dictators because the State House of Assemnly thatnis expected to check them are already in the pockets of the Governors.

That is why no matter how ludicrous an idea or project is that a Governor brings before the House of Assembly, they usually approve it without questions.

Uptownerd:
Do you people even read the junk you write? So God wants to change human nature, but couldn't do it when there was only 2 people in the so called Bible world. He had to wait when millions of people have filled the earth?

Your education (of you are educated), is a waste. Why can't you people use your goddamn head for once and stop speaking like some preprogrammed robot with no thoughts of their own.

God forbid.

It is symptomatic of shallow minds to resort to insults when they encounter superior argument in discussions.

For you, it makes sense and it is easier to change human nature when they are 2 rather than millions. But the Creator of the world has His own plans and those are arrived at based on a reasoning level far above your own.

If you have learnt about "counterintuitive strategy", you will know that what appears to be the simple and direct solution to the ordinary man is not the ideal as known by people experienced in the field.

Ask an experienced Civil Engineer why it makes sense to intentionally weaken a structure in seismic design or ask a seasoned software engineer the reasoning behind the technique of "fault injection" or "error seeding" in software development. I can go on with several examples from different fields.

If this can be happening even at our own human thinking level, how much more at a level far above us? You need to learn and acknowledge how limited your thinking or knowledge is and do away with the pomposity, little man.

Uptownerd:
This is like knowing the root cause of a problem but dancing around it. It's like chasing rat when your house is on fire.

If you think Satan is the root cause of sin, then you do not understand the nature of sin. The moment you have free will, you have the capacity to rebel. Even though the devil made suggestions to Eve, it was Eve that for her own reasons chose the path of rebellion against God. The sin that Jesus came to eradicate is not an action but a "nature", that is why salvation is iabout being reborn in a new nature.

Samynet:
The entire trial has become one big terrible joke

It is not a joke. Just observe how they are unwilling to set aside the law and his convictions despite being elected as the President. These are the people that truly understand what the law means and what it means to say no one is above the law.

Because he will have immunity as President, rather than dismiss the case as our own people here will do, they have suspended the sentencing in a situation similar to when the accused is not available for sentencing, but the conviction stands. As such, he can be sentenced after his Presidential term has finished. That is what it means when there is truly the rule of law in place, not the kangaroo stuff we practice here..

The American-sponsored terrorists are finally coming home to roost. The United States armed these so-called ISIS and sent them heavy weapons to fight against the Assad government in Syria.

Now, that Assad is gone, the same ISIS is starting to move into the US to kill Americans.

The funny part is that the US and their lapdogs here on Nairaland won't attribute the US giving weapons to ISIS with Islam but once ISIS starts to bite them back, they will say the ISIS terrorist did it because of Islam.

Nope, this guy didn't do it because of Islam. He did it because the US gave him the weapons.

While the arming of ISIS by the US for political reasons is condemnable and morally wrong, I find it difficult to excuse Islam from the actions of ISIS and this dead terrorist. Did you read the part that stated he was born in the US and radicalized within the US. He is not a returnee from among the ISIS groups in the Middle East allegedly armed by the US.

The key reason why I refuse to excuse Islam is the fact that ISIS, though labeled a terror group due to their actions, is an ideological group with its ideologies rooted or birthed in Islam and the Quran. It is Islam and the Quran that they use primarily to justify their actions.

For the Muslims who want to argue, please.look at the statistics rather than sentiments: Islam has birthed and continues to birth the highest number of terror groups by any religion or ideology in the world. From ISIS to Boko Haram, Al-Qaeda, Al-Shabaab, Ansar Allah, Islamic State (IS), Jamaat Nusrat Al-Islam wal Muslimeen (JNIM), Movement for Unity and Jihad in West Africa (MUJAO), Jemaah Islamiyah, etc. Just do a Goggle search of "Islamic Terror Groups" and the list is almost endless.

How do you excuse the fact that some of them even have Islam as part of their names? And then say Islam plays no role in their actions? If you say they are misinterpreting the Quranic verses and Hadits they use to support their actions, then why are other religions and religious books not having such high level of dangerous misinterpretation that is inimical to the well being of the society? You need to either call a spade a spade or continue to beat about the bush.

The white lion is loved by everyone, jubilations and celebrations all over kogi state.

Looking at the demeanor of some of the people, there is strong likelihood the crowd is rented or promised compensation. It is a face saving political gimmick that can only happen among his Ebira stock because of the ethnic sentiments and mentality of the people.

Nigerians often prefer their ethnic group in power even when performance is lacking. With Ododo foisted on Kogi people by Yahaya Bello, there are definitely people of their ethic group who remain happy with that regardless of what happens to Kogi State in general under the dispensation.

SHARI’AH: MAKINDE NEEDS BRIEFING – MURIC

27th December, 2024
PRESS RELEASE:

The governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, recently spoke against the Shari’ah. However, an Islamic human rights organization, the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), has criticized the governor for failing to receive proper briefing before opposing Shari’ah.

According to a statement issued by the Executive Director of MURIC, Professor Ishaq Akintola, on Friday, 27th December, 2024, the group said Makinde spoke in ignorance of the true situation on ground. The group advised government officials to get adequate briefing before commenting on issues particularly sensitive matters like religion.

The full statement reads:

“Engr. Seyi Makinde, the executive governor of Oyo State, recently spoke against the Shari’ah in Oyo State. It is quite obvious that the governor was not properly briefed before coming out publicly to make scathing remarks about Shari’ah.

“Makinde spoke from a position of ignorance about the subject matter, particularly about the true situation on ground. It is advisable for government officials to get adequate briefing before commenting on issues particularly sensitive matters like religion.

“This is so because neither Muslims nor Christians can allow anyone, not even a governor, to ridicule their religion. That is why any government that does not want to be embarrassed should not make frivolous statements that can be debunked even by children in kindergarten classes.

“To this end, it has come to our knowledge that shortly after some uninformed and misguided Yoruba youths declared publicly that they did not want Shari’ah in Yorubaland, Governor Makinde announced in a viral video clip that Shari’ah was not in the constitution which he swore to defend.

“But Makinde lied. Shariah is in the constitution. It is either the governor feigned ignorance of it for reasons best known to him or he was not properly briefed. We expected the governor to have consulted the legal arm of his government before uttering that fallacious statement.

“Section 275(1) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria allows the states to establish Shari’ah Courts of Appeal. It says inter alia, ‘There shall be for any state that desires it a Shari’ah Court of Appeal for that state’. This is the reality on ground unless the governor is saying that Oyo State has been carved out of the entity called Nigeria or that his own constitution is different from what Nigerians are using.

“We find the governor leveraging on a typographical error committed by the organisers of the Shari’ah programme in Oyo town who wrote ‘the word ‘Court’ instead of ‘Panel’ in the invitation sent out which reads: ‘Inauguration Ceremony of Shariah Court in Oyo Town and its Environs’ but should have read: ‘Inauguration Ceremony of Shariah Panel in Oyo Town and its Environs’.

“The governor deliberately exploited the typographical error because we know that he cannot claim to be unaware of the existence of many Shari’ah panels in Yorubaland.

“A Shariah Panel has been sitting at the Central Mosque in Oja Oba, established since 1st May, 2002 to date. Makinde met the panel there and it will still be there when he leaves office in 2027. There is nothing he can do about that.

“Shari’ah panels are spread all over Yorubaland. It has been in Lagos since 1993. Ogun State got its own Shari’ah panel on 17th January, 2018 and its first sitting took place on 2nd February of the same year at the Egba Muslims Central Mosque, Kobiti, Abeokuta.

“Oshogbo got a taste of the Shari’ah panel in 2005 and it is on record that conventional courts in Osun refer Imamate and inheritance cases to the Shari’ah panel. The latest and newest is the 11-member Ekiti State Shari’ah Arbitration Panel which was sworn in on Friday, 1st November, 2024 (https://independent.ng/ekiti-sharia-arbitration-panel-shall-dispense-justice-to-all-grand-qadi/; https://dailytrust.com/kwara-grand-kadi-inaugurates-ekiti-shariah-arbitration-panel/)

“Makinde is just grandstanding. He cannot say he is unaware of all these Shari’ah panels which are everywhere in Yorubaland. It is just that politicians cannot stop making political statements. It is semantics. Makinde simply played tricks with the words ‘court’ and ‘panel’. He knew the organisers of that event meant to write ‘panel’.

“These Shari’ah panels were established as alternative dispute settlement centres for Muslims. They are not conventional courts per se but channels for Muslims to ventilate family disputes and vehicles for tackling Muslim civil matters like inheritance, marriage and divorce which can only be understood and satisfactorily resolved by experts in Islamic law.

“Makinde just shot himself in the foot anyway. This is the same governor who is warming up for Aso Rock. After talking about our Shari’ah in this manner, we wonder how he will navigate the tortuous and windy road to the presidency in a country demographically skewed in favour of Muslims. He should remember that even Peter Obi’s ‘Yes Daddy’ mantra was to no avail.

“MURIC advises government officials and the general public in Yorubaland to understand the concept of civil Shari’ah. Yoruba youths in particular should not allow themselves to be misled by Muslim haters. Like Nigeria, Yorubaland belongs to us all. Nobody is going anywhere for anybody.

“Muslims, Christians and traditionalists must learn to peacefully coexist. We must learn to tolerate Muslim civil Shari’ah just as the Muslims have been tolerating Christian laws and their courts for decades.

“We should not allow trouble-makers, rabble-rousers and irredentists to lead us by the nose. The Muslim Shari’ah panel is for Muslims alone and it is only to settle disagreements among Muslims. No Christian can appear in our Shariah panel. It is not even a court and it has no power of enforcement in any form.

“Yoruba people must not listen to those inciting them against their Muslim neighbours. There is nothing to fear in ordinary Shari’ah panel. Beware, the Bible warns: ‘My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge, Because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee …’ (Hosea 4:6).

“We appeal to Muslims in Oyo State in particular and Yorubaland in general to ignore all forms of provocations. Islam is a religion based on knowledge and peaceful behaviour. We must therefore manifest patience and maturity at all times.”

#ShariahIsInTheConstitution
#ShariahPanelNotShariahCourt

Professor Ishaq Akintola,
Founder/Executive Director,
Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC)

One cannot but wonder how Ishaq Akintola became a Profeasor with this shallow level of thinking. How nice to try to use the Constitution to support an action that is in violation of the Constitution.

1. The section of the Constitution he quoted spoke about a Shariah Court of Appeal and vested power to do that in the State Government and House of Assembly. However, Akintola and Co are supporting a group seeking to inaugurate a Shariah Court without authorization of the State Government or House of Assembly.

2. Akintola in his write-up later he claims it is a typographical error and they intended to inaugurate a Shariah Panel and not a Sariah Court thatnis clearly stated on their invitation cards. How convenient and stupid an excuse particularly when the group behind the idea have not come out publicly to make such clarification orally or in writing.

3. Those clamoring for Shariah in Nigeria should realize that Sharia cannot co-exist with the Nigerian Constitution or any secular Constitution at that. Shariah Laws on Apostacy and Blaphemy are clear violations of freedom of speech and relevant sections of the Nigerian Constitution such as Section 38(1) which provides that every person shall be entitled to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, including freedom to change his religion or belief.

Southerners are particularly wary because Muslims in the North (i.e.Kano, Zamfara, Sokoloff, etc) have not seen anything wrong in using State resources to foster Islam as a State Religion in violation of Section 10 of the Nigerian Constitution which provides that the Government of the Federation or of a State shall not adopt any religion as State religion.

NobleStag007:
Bible isn't holy book. And it's not revelation from Allah to Eesa.

It's a book written thousands of years after the death of Eesa and it's mostly written by Paul.

Sorry if it seems harsh

There is no harshness. It is the blatant lies from you that I am bothered about.

1. Parts of the Bible have been written even before Jesus and Paul were born, as witnessed by Jesus reading portions of the Book of Isaiah (Isaiah 61:1–2) when he was at the Synagogue as reported in Luke 4:17 - 21.

2. The New Testament has been preserved in more manuscripts than any other ancient work of literature, with over 5,800 complete or fragmented Greek manuscripts catalogued, 10,000 Latin manuscripts and 9,300 manuscripts in various other ancient languages like Syriac, Slavic, Gothic, Ethiopic, Coptic, Nubian, and Armenian. These date back to as early as AD 125 and definitely not thousands of years after the death or birth of Jesus as you erroneously claim.

3. The Bible is clearly written under divine inspiration from God and has miraculously withstood criticisms and several severe attempts to bury it over the years. Prophecies written in earlier books hundred of years before came to pass as witnessed in later books, all building a divine harmony and coherence in its theme.

If any book is deserving of being labeled as not a Holy Book, then it is the Quran and not the Bible.

1. Muslims with their blasphemy laws and violent attacks have protected the Quran from criticisms rather than allowing Allah to sustain its existence. Any book for which criticism is forbidden at the pain of death shows it is a book yhat can hardly hold up to criticism in the first place. Why would Allah be afraid of the criticisms of mere mortals?

2. The Quran in different versions were only compiled from various fragments after the death of Mohammad. There was no completed book like the Quran of today when Mohammad was alive.

3. It was Uthman ibn Affan, the third Rashidun Caliph, that commissioned the creation of a standardized version of the Quran in about 650 AD years after the death of Mohammad. He was the one that had all other versions of the Quran that existed burned. Consequently, the choice of what went into the final or standard version of the Quran was at the discretion of Uthman.

4. In fact the Quran as it exists today is sometimes known as the Uthmanic codex.

Before you cast aspersions on the Holy Book of others, examine yours carefully and do not be violent when yours is being criticized. And please stop the lies.

The summary of your post is,demand creates supply.
I am 100% sure numerous men were dropping comments on here socials encouraging her to open an onlyfans account because she is pretty & would make more money than talking about "boring" sciencey stuff on youtube.
Sadly,they were/are right.

Someone once said: "Stop making foolish people famous" when he saw how people behaving badly were being promoted on social media. The sad reality is that when people make immoral women famous and rich, these immoral women soon become role models for some upcoming generations of girls in a world that is increasingly focusing more on materialism and wealth regardless of the source.

Every time I am on Twitter, I am shocked by the girls and women promoting their Only Fans channels by dropping random nude and seductive pictures on people's posts. It is shocking and disgusting.

What about the bastards who gave approval for these degenerates to adopt innocent children...I hope they also got stiff punishment!

I hope the stupid Judge and Social Workers that granted adoption of the children to the gay couple can now sleep well seeing how they have ruined the lives of these children. May God's punishment reign Supreme in their lives and those of the law makers who made laws enabling such abomination.

What business does a couple that can never biologically produce children, have raising kids? What sense does it make helping people escape the consequences of their decisions ane actions at the cost of ruining the lives of innocent children?

That was how a lesbian couple that adopted a son was trying to make the innocent boy into a girl, dressing him in female clothes. What wickedness!

Namaster:
This is a woman at her CORE.

She's a WELL-EDUCATED woman with above-average intelligence. Has degrees in Bioengineering and Computer Science. She was working her way through a PhD after securing both a Bachelor's and Master's Degrees.

Yet she threw EVERYTHING away to become a PORRNSTAR!

She was NOT exploited, trafficked or forced. She made the choice to make money using her breasts and vagina. Her brain be DAMNED.

ALL women want to be sex objects!

Regardless of their level of education or the conservativeness of their upbringing, they still want to be viewed as a SEX object.

The conclusion that "all women want to be sex objects" from the actions of a single woman is nothing but a stupid conclusion and a big fat lie.

As of September 2024, OnlyFans had 305 million fans or consumers and 4 million creators. While it is a fact that most of the creators are women, it is also a fact that most of the fans or consumers are men. Now just look at the number of creators versus the consumers?

There are more than two billion women worldwide and the fact that less than 2 percent chose an immoral venture on OnlyFans is no sound basis to make a general conclusion about women at all.

Let's face it, it is the men that are the ones turning the women into sex objects on OnlyFans. The women going into OnlyFans are making economic decisions though immoral and their immoral actions are being funded and made lucrative by immoral men. I do not support and even strongly condemn women going into Only Fans but it is the culture that funds sin and immorality that is most worrisome. If there are no men to pay the subscription fees, then there would be no women sex objects or content creators on OniyFans.

Can you please substantiate your allegations of arrogance, greed, meddlesome essay and false accusations against Dele? Or stand accused of defamation yourself.

Whether Dele made defamatory statements or not is a matter that is currently before the Courts and it is left for the Courts to decide. But the few days of his travails that we have seen, from his abduction by the Police outside of the jurisdiction of the Ekiti State Magistrate Court that purportedly ordered his arrest to his being denied of bail and the Magistrate allegedly forgetting his ruling at home, all these have not painted the Judiciary in any positive light, particularly in view of the allegations against the Judiciary. In fact, the actions all seem to lend credence to Dele's claims.

In other words, Nigerians worked for and paid kidnappers 2.23 trillion.

Hmmnn... Kidnapping has become a multi-trillion naira business in Nigeria.

For context, N 2.21 Trillion Naira is the total turnover of Dangote Cement in 2023.

Also for context, N 2.19 Trillion Naira is the total of the entire Federal Allocation distributed in May 2024 to all the three tiers of Government. The FAAC disbursed ₦2.19 trillion to the three tiers of government. The federal government received ₦390.41 billion, states received ₦493.40 billion, and local governments received ₦293.82 billion.

Namaster:
He argued that the continued detention of Bodejo breaches his fundamental human rights and violates sections 34, 35, and 36 of the 1999 Constitution.

Politicians sure know the constitution when it suits them.

Okuama community was RAZED to the ground by the USELESS criminals called soldiers.

Soldiers KIDNAPPED 2 ELDERLY community leaders.
Soldiers TORTURED these OLD men to DEATH.

NOBODY in the National Assembly has said ANYTHING up till this moment.

They let the soldiers kill the people of that community and MURDER 2 old men.

They said NOTHING!
They did NOTHING!

Now, the leader of Miyetti Allah, a known TERRORIST organisation whose members attacked a Retired General, was arrested.

Suddenly the DEAF and DUMB Assembly swung into action and started passing resolutions and quoting constitution.

Insanity!

What is good for Okuama is good for Miyetti Allah.

If SOME people are protected because of the constitution while OTHERS are violated despite the constitution, then they are NOT one people.

If that's how it is, BREAK Nigeria!

Before we apportion blame we need to really think deeply about issues. The arrest of Bodejo was brought to the House of Representatives by a Rep. Member from Sokoto and the matter was considered and voted upon.

I belive that Bayelsa State has Rep. Members at the National Assembly. Did any of the members from Bayelsa or the South South deem it fit to raise the matter of Okuama at the House of Representatives or Senate? If your Rep. Members and Senators are keeping quiet and silent on matters affecting you, is it Members from another Constituency that will bail you out? You need to go and talk to your own people first and foremost before blaming anyone. No one can carry your matter for head or swallow panadol for your headache please.

What he said is the truth. It is like a Lecturer getting gifts from students and expecting to have integrity.

The Judiciary is expected to be independent and have their own budgets and funds allocated in line with Constitutional requirements. They should be the one building their own houses and buying their own cars and not receiving them as gifts from the Executive arm.

In all honesty, how can a Judiciary accepting gifts from the Executives be truly independent? And on second thoughts too, Executives that give gifts to the Judiciary should be accused of bribery and corruption.

God1000:
I have nothing in common with the people from the north of the country, the Boko Haram where Islamism is,” she added.

This is very disrespectful remarks, some things are better left unsaid


This will be used against her someday, I think she's fooling herself by saying she's more of a Yoruba than being a Nigerian, she will forever be seen as a UK citizen of Nigerian descent

The lady has the right to express herself and her opinions I don't see any wrong in her statement.

Nigeria is not a nation created by God nor the people who found themselves within and are being called Nigerians. Nigeria is a creation of the British colonial masters and there is no indication it will last forever.

Her roots are in her Yoruba ethnic group which existed before Nigeria and most likely to outlast Nigeria.

Nigeria is a project and a country that even our politicians have shown little to no fidelity to and these politicians are the ones in the forefront of accusing Badenoch. How patriotic are our politicians? All the stories of corruption at the Nigerian Customs and smuggling across borders that are damaging the economy done by Soyombo and reported by FIJ, is it not surprising that the National Assembly is deaf and blind to it all? Yet they inaugurated a committee on Bobrisky matter?
