Do they allow inmates to own smartphones or you are out?

They do. Anything in prison can be gotten if you got the dough.

AkpororoTalk:
When will we ment jungle justice on our politicians

It will be difficult to "MENT" to them.

Agwoden:
This is what APC govt have turned Nigerians to. Smh

It didn't just start today. It's been like this since independence so blaming one party is ludicrous.

Ecoterrorist:
Thank you for bringing up the debate issue? Do you know it was the debates that raised Trump poll ratings and Americans are always in frnzy when Trump comes is on the podium for debate.


Trump is an unstoppable force and some Republicans who have seen unstoppable Trump train are joining in.


I can bet that John Kasich will be the next candidate to join the Trump train

You still don't get it. He is an unstoppable force within the REPUBLICAN party. The Republican party does not represent America. I ask again, do you stay in America? You do stay in the U.S. Reason I ask is people who don't live there have a jacked up opinion about him.

Ecoterrorist:
cc banmee pidggin what benefits did obama administration brought to Africa or blacks in America

For black America did a lot. Especially during police brutality. For Africa? I really don't care. It is not their job to take care of us.

Ecoterrorist:
I still dont see why you should call him a lunatic when down in Nigeria millions of people voted in a Certificateless extremist in the name of CHANGE.

Your opinion counts but you need to know that Americans want America to be Great again

America's system is very different from the Nigerian way of doing things. What political ideology does Apc have? Nigerians don't care or want to know. Was there even a debate? Americans don't just vote people in based on promises. You need to have a plan. Trump doesn't.

Ecoterrorist:
once upon a time Ben Carson had a lead in the polls and Trump was struggling, Obama promised to close down gitmo but the reverse is the case today. Trump has a focal point of bettering the US economy and reorganization of US foreign policy.

He talks tough about NATO which has been a drainon US purse with no commiserate benefit and the Evil today is no longer Communism rather ISLAMIC EXTREMISM with their sponsors Saudi Arabia, Iran and Turkey funding militant extremist

Wait. I sense something weird here. Where do you live? There is no freaking way you live in the states and not be worried about the lunatics supporting Trump.

Ecoterrorist:
Trump in his foreign policy thrust outline spending cut for countries like South Korea, Japan and Saudi Arabia who have always been traditional Republican allies. The Republican establishment sees it as a sword thrust through their heart.

You have to remember, Americans are not Nigerians, where you can say anything about what you are going to do and get away with it. Your history will speak for you. He is saying a lot of things that he does not live by. Hillary is going to tear him to pieces during the general debates and elections. Even now, she is leading in general election polls meaning if the election is held tomorrow, Trump would lose.

Ecoterrorist:
Republicans are of the old order and want the status quo to remain in a dynamic world where the US is gping downhill with mountain of debts and father xmas on their head.


Cc banmee

You must have them confused with the democrats. The Republican party is all about fiscal responsibility. It's the democratic party that spends like drunken sailors. You sure you know what you are talking about?

Ecoterrorist:
Americans are fed up with the establishments and the lies they gurgle. Americans are doing an introspection and see Trump as the man to lift them out of the mess yhey are in.


I support Trump because The US is going for broke with their big brother attitude while China and Rusia are rising on their back.

Read up trump foreign policy thrust

As a woman, you should be at the forefront of the voice against him. What with all the negative things he says about women. His values are unbalanced to say the least. Everyone loves a freak show. The same song he is singing was the same song hitler sang and Germans danced to the tune. Granted, America has it's issues but Trump is not it's answer or the voice of reason. Republicans are campaigning against him and that should say a lot. Heck, I'm a republican, and I shudder at the thought of Trump with nuclear launch codes.

omoplaycool:
True..but even when someone knows he/ she is wrong if you confront them by condemning they immediately biuld up a wall. More like a defense mechanism and any other thing u say no matter how smart it's sounds means nothing to them
# GOD BLESS NIGERIA

True. But there are also other ways of getting through to someone. Nigerians don't like the truth. They prefer lies which is what Buhari knows well and this is why he won the election. Right now, Nigeria needs an undiluted reality check and to wake up from it's delusion.

Ecoterrorist:
Trump was formerly a Democrat but you know he is the frontrunner in the Republican party today so your gospel holds no water

And he is now the President of the united states right? I don't know why people don't understand the way the American electoral system works. Even though it is on google, youtube etc. When you add up all the electoral votes that could be gotten in America as it stands today, the number of people supporting Trump, though insane is far less than those in the Democratic party and hillary. Plus, you have to understand that as you have normal people, you also have abnormal ones as well. There is no way in hell that Trump will win the Presidency. This is why the Republican leadership is campaigning against Trump vehemently. Even now, based on electoral polls, Clinton is leading Trump, which means that if the election is held tomorrow, Clinton would win. The people supporting Trump right now do not speak for the vast majority of Americans. Remember it is the republican primaries not the General elections. The general populace will never trust him. Why do you think Trump is bankrolling his own election? Because he knows the conventional method of raising funds will never support him.

Ecoterrorist:
True talk.


Its only demdem and ngeneukwuenu that will vote for Apc but still PDP will sue because demdem is from Osogbo and his PVC is registered in Ile Nla grammer School polling centre Osogbo

I have already post this before, but i will continue to post it till una start to de get sense:


The cool thing about the jacked up way Nigerians do business is it is always a case study of how things should not be done. There is no ideology when it comes to the values and political leanings of the average Nigerian. Well, sort of. Their values is often dictated by money and who can provide it. When you go to England, their citizens either belong to the Labour party, because they believe in the rights and power of the average worker, the conservative party, because of their belief in the old school values, or the Liberal party, which believes in changing with the modern times. In the U.S, you have the Democrats, who are very liberal and believe so much in individual expression and personal freedom while you have the Republicans who prefer the old school christian values and the right to bear arms. In these countries, the way you think will determine which party you fall under. If you ask an average Nigerian which party he belongs to, he'll either tell you, PDP or APC. If you ask him why, he most likely will say it is the party that will see the country to Eldorado. If you then ask what values the party holds or stands for, you'll get the deer in a headlights look. They have no clue. No one knows the values or the political leanings of either parties. The only thing holding these politicians together in both parties is the quest for wealth which is why you have politicians "decamping" at will. In America, it is political suicide for a Republican to "decamp" to the democratic party and vice versa. It is akin to an Imam trying to vie for the position of Pope. That politician will never be trusted ever again. What Nigerians don't understand is, until we start to define the values that each political parties has or stands for in this country we will never move forward politically. We'll continue going round in circles. You cannot just support or join a party because of an individual. You have to know if the way you are thinking is the same way the person you are supporting, or party is thinking. Promises don't mean squat when both of you are not on the same page. I hope for Nigeria's sake it's citizens wake up from this mental slumber they all seem to be in since independence.

gloria34:
are u 4 real? Wot concerns d child wit d mothers business? When she became a celebrity, was it her entire family that became celebrities? Abeg make pple park well joor

There is a man named funmi onabolu. Founder and ceo of cosse bates international. Multi billionaire and my mentor. He gave me my first opportunity in life. He was also a past president of advertisers association of Nigeria. He is into entertainment big time. Have you ever heard of him? I think not. Why? Because he keeps his private business private. When you are s.tupid enough to put your entire life on social media, you open all sorts of doors for prying eyes. If anyone does not understand this, then you deserve whatever you get.

omoplaycool:
I'd like to let you know that your words are powerful. So when u keep thinking the government and the people are stupid you get what you confess. I think it will do us good as Nigerians to keep praying for whoever is in government ..
#GOD BLESS YOU
$GOD BLESS NIGERIA

Prayers will not solve anything. It doesn't take half a century to wise up. Instead of prayers, Nigeria needs a complete mental overhaul of how it's citizens think and do business.

Oshege:
Four students of the University of Lagos, Akoka, Lagos, have been arrested by the Ogun State Police Command for attempting to resurrect the corpse of a 300-level student of Microbiology, Eniola Jacob .

The suspects are Inerima Alaniye (a 400-level student of Mathematics); Awe Raphael (a 500-level student of Law); Adeboye Adeshola (a 200-level student of Political Science); and Arawomo Stephen.
It was reported that Jacob allegedly took an insecticide, Sniper, last Saturday on the campus.

He was said to have been rushed to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Idi-Araba, where he died on Sunday.

it was also reported that students who attempted to resurrect his corpse were leaders of the Cherubim and Seraphim Students Fellowship on the campus.

Jacob was said to have been a strong member of the fellowship before his death.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, said the students’ behaviour and actions at Jacob’s grave were suspicious, adding that they had been transferred to the State Department of Criminal Investigation, Eleweran.

The police spokesperson said during Jacob’s burial, the four students suddenly emerged and asked that the corpse be exhumed.

He said, “They were arrested at the graveside. They were arrested because their actions were suspicious. They insisted on exhuming the corpse that had been buried. They said they wanted to resurrect it. It came to us as a surprise that in this modern age, some group of young boys would come out and say they want to resurrect a dead man.

“We felt it was a strange development. If they were not cultists they would not make such a demand. We thought they were looking for parts of the deceased to tamper with and we took them to Eleweran for further investigations.”

The Public Relations Officer of the University of Lagos, Mr. Toyin Adebule, said he could not confirm the arrest of the students.

He, however, confirmed that Jacob took Sniper on the school premises.

He said the police had taken over the case and a corona inquest had begun.

He said, “This is a corona case and the school is not involved. It has nothing to do with the university. What happened was that he (Jacob) took Sniper and after taking it, the security was informed. He was initially talking, but suddenly he collapsed.

“He was rushed to the school’s health centre where he was resuscitated. Around 7pm, he was rushed to LUTH where he died some hours later. There is no indictment. I am not aware that some students of the school have been arrested.”

I will have to agree with you,even his ADC that should be prolific in weapon handling is also there staring at a soldier handling a weapon with a mounted magazine with the muzzle in close proximity to his boss...it's also heartbreaking to note that from the uniform of the soldier with the weapon,he's most likely part of our elite special forces...

I am not trying to be funny, but i have to ask again; Do you think Nigeria's "elite special forces" know any better too? The level of training the army receives leaves much to be desired. The rule of thumb is, when holding a rifle/pistol, assume it's loaded. With or without a magazine in the magazine weld. At least that is the way i was taught.

drslem:
Very good observation....To make things worse,he even made such a potentially fatal error in the presence of the Air chief!

You think the chief of air staff knows any better?

destinysaid:
no, her position exists to relate with our citizens overseas, and better the relationship between them,the country they are in and Nigeria.

no country will survive with all its citizens locked up at home.

there was a comment to which she replied to before his, why was he still complaining. human patience is limited.

she is wrong, she is right, my own be say, these are just tools to distract NG youths from working n fulfilling their purpose, instead they crowd up wasting precious time shouting at someone already rich n famous.

Better the relationship for what end purpose? When you have a relationship with something or someone it is usually to benefit selfishly from it. And how does she develop a better relationship with them when she responds the way she does? You forget, she can treat Nigerians living in Nigeria like idio.ts, but not Nigerians living in Places more exposed to the fact that civil servants are what they are and supposed to be; our servants.

The Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Baba Abubakar, boosted the morale of troops in the frontline as he paid them a working visit to Maiduguri and Yola during the Easter celebrations...The CAS assured the troops that the Nigerian Air Force would do everything within its reach to make the personnel comfortable in order to operate optimally.

As a result, he assured the personnel in Maiduguri that their welfare needs would be addressed even as he noted the current shortage of living quarters in the Units.

Meanwhile, Air Marshal Abubakar further availed himself the opportunity of his visit to the North East to pay homage to the political and traditional leadership in Borno and Adamawa States. The CAS visited the Shehu of Borno, His Royal Highness, Alhaji Abubakar Ibn Umar Garbai El-Kanemi, in his palace to express gratitude to the Shehu and people of Borno State for their continued support to the Nigerian Air Force.

Air Marshal Abubakar used the occasion to provide insight into the plan by the NAF to expand its current manpower disposition and facilities in Borno State.

Similarly, in Yola, the Chief paid homage to the His Excellency the Governor of Adawama State, Senator Bindo Umaru Jubrilla; and the Lamido of Adamawa, His Royal Highness, Alhaji Muhammadu Barkindo Aliyu Musdafa, where he expressed similar appreciation for their support to the NAF in the state.

Look at the way the mumu in the first picture is holding his weapon. His weapon is pointing at peoples feet and magazine in the magazine weld. Zero muzzle awareness. I am pretty sure most of the deaths by Nigerian soldiers is through fratricide.

How do u expect her to show her child to the WORD?
Well the child's hidden identity is the child's business and Toke hiding the child's identity is her business too, my business is to hustle and make it. Now tell me, won't it be great and more rewarding if I mind my business?

Although i liked your post i disagree with the identity of the child being Toke's business. She has put her personal business online for everyone to poke into from day one. Now her life is no longer her business; it is everybody's business.

Brigadier7:
We thank God the truth is finally out!! I for one I think removing the principal and teachers was rather a Rash move! There are other professional and sensible ways of addressing issues like this!!Well, am not surprise People don't respect Teachers in this part of the world so anything can happen!! #GodBless All The Teachers! And All the Best Ogechi in your future endeavors!!

Removing the principal and teachers involved was not a rash move. In fact, they got off lightly. Do you know what would have happened to them in a civilized society? Also, respect is two-way, not one-way. It is give and take. No one has the right to put hands on another person. If you don't want someone to do it to you, then don't even think of doing it to someone else. Removing the principal and teachers ensured that toxic leadership was taken out of the equation. If anything, it is not that people don't respect teachers, It is that people don't respect or value life in Nigeria which is why it is so easy for Nigerians to do harm to one another.

But nobody asked the guy to come home in d first place before he started listing all d woes in Nigeria.
The guy was probably looking for who to get into a political fight with but Abike no gréé.

You go school at all? Why do you think she holds the position she does at the moment? Her position exists to ask people "to come home". Nigerians and the way they think.

Ur ryt. political parties in Nigeria don't have Ideologies. But I support the PDP, not cos the PDP is a Gud party. But cos I don't see the APC as a beta option. U know wat they say abt 'the devil u know'.

I guess it's the choice we've been given. As for me, I'd rather not be part of any but be a critic of both.

tpiah01:
different context.

I wasnt referring to WWII but precolonial Nigeria.

misread you I guess!

but that stalking, jungle beast comment refers to actual Nigerian or African practices.

Even with that, do you know how much a couple of black guys would stand out in Germany of those days? Jews, who were white, were like lepers, not to talk of a couple of black men. They would have stood out like beans on rice.

tpiah01:
what do you mean?


Some Nigerian tribes were known for archery.

Against the German war machine that took over the entire Europe? I say again; against the German war machine that took over the entire Europe? Ok.....
