superlanny: I don't know how other countries do it, but Nigeria has the worst case of profiling that I have ever seen. I once heard someone say because I dress well I must be a yahoo boy, or because I smoke cigarettes I must be a cultist, in my mind I am like so I must dress dirty or unclean before I can pass as a normal citizen.
There's is zero intelligence and anyone who they think looks like a criminal automatically becomes one. Now they have pursued someone child to death.
I am sorry to say, but our mentality is archaic and it's not just the police, Nigerians do this shit too, they judge you wrongly without even knowing you.
Bro na you know wetin you dey do. Those guys in the police force are well trained to profile.
Na the way you respond to them go save or fail you.
She didn't destroy the company image but seeking opinion of others on their product.
Remember, in 2007, a Baby teething product called MY PIKIN was released to the market by 2008 over 80 babies have died from it.
Public outcry brought government attention into it and it was discovered that it actually contain a certain substance that can cause harm to the body. Eventually, the product was banned.
So when is given negative feedback about products become a crime?
The company failed to have used this as opportunity to do good PR for their product rather than arresting her.
What if some crooks have already produced the counterfeit of their product?
What if there was actually production error somewhere?
You see negative feedback for a product isn't a crime.
Theres is a procedure to follow. Social media rants will just get you in trouble.
So many in western countries have gotten arrested for lesser crimes than this.
Her crime are far more than what you know for her to be arested. It might not be only about the post. Police dont just arrest like that
kettykings: This is exactly what is happening in the business and academic world. Igbos in the Lagos win for Lagos , pay tax to Lagos but when it comes to vote , you are reminded your state of origin.
Apc will will die a violent death and their supporters will go into an abysmal extinction
No one asked for your help oh. Slave. You do biz in Lagos, you pay tax. It doesnt make you part of them. It doesnt make you Yoruba. Learn to know your place.
Stop famzing with yorubas. Build your region so that other tribes can come and be famzing with Igbos. Learn to have self respect
Seefinish: The Obidient family will keep ignoring this old fool as we always do. Nobody knows a man called Apapa until Obi joined the Labour Party. If Obi should leave now, the dirty Apapa will go back to his shrine and continue his babalawo business Obi has no problem with his educational qualifications. If you doubt him, go to all the schools he attended and make enquiry. Obi's is not a dirty man but Tinubu. It is laughable that agberos without informal and formal education even upbringings are asking for Obi's educational qualifications.
We that know Apapa know him. We have always known him even long before you all knew what LP stood for.
Tell Obi to go back to APGA and make it popular. No one needs his help to make LP popular.
IfnobeGod20: Sorie pe sa? Who is IPOB and who is impersonating? Anyone that say the truth about south west is now termed IPOB or impersonator. This is crazy. Mura sir, ojo nbo, to ma su ekun asun to.
Who are you trying to impress? That doesnt even make you even half a yoruba man.
A fake will always be a fake. Just like your Gborabo

Johnnyessence: The Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in Nigeria’s 2023 election, Mr. Peter Obi, has underscored the importance of Small and Medium Enterprises SMEs to global economic growth.
He also explained why small businesses are the engine of growth across the globe, especially in areas of job creation, innovation, and domestic investment.
Obi’s position was contained in the remarks he made over the weekend at a global conference organized by the Bangladesh Government in conjunction with the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council, in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
The Labour Party standard bearer argued in his address at the international conference that SMEs are emerging as the undisputed engine of rapid economic expansion and growth globally.
Buttressing his position with various data, Obi noted that “World Bank records (2020), show that SMEs account for roughly 90% of businesses and more than 50% of jobs created globally.
While formal SMEs contribute up to 40% of national income (GDP) in developing and emerging markets (DEMs), their impact and contribution are significantly higher when informal ones are included (World Bank, 2020).
According to the former Anambra state Governor, ‘In Bangladesh, SMEs contribute about 40% to GDP, in Nigeria 48% and China 60% with about 7 out of every 10 formal jobs created by SMEs.
“It has the same immense impact in India where SMEs account for over 40% of the total workforce.”
Obi urged the Commonwealth nations to pay very special attention to small businesses, which have proven to be the fulcrum upon which sustainable and inclusive growth and development can be achieved across Commonwealth countries.
He noted that “If we enhance the functionality and impacts of SMEs across Commonwealth countries through formalization and internationalization, we would have done it across the world with lives, communities, and economies positively impacted.
“Endowed with a population of about 2.5 billion people, a home to over a billion young consumers and exports of over $1 trillion, the need for better support for SMEs cannot be over-emphasized.”
He further explained that small businesses, especially in developing and emerging markets, face many challenges arising from a lack of formalization and internationalization.
He revealed that many small businesses are not registered and licensed and lack international affiliations, export less than large companies, and barely exploit the benefits of international trade, which limits the growth opportunities of both the SMEs and the countries.
To harness the full contributions and impacts of SMEs, Obi admonished that reforms such as proper formalization and internationalization are needed to address the identified challenges.
“Formalization involves bringing SMEs into the formal economy through registration of their businesses and complying with legal and regulatory requirements.
“Expectedly, the process of formalization will be beneficial not only to the SMEs but the overall business environment and economic stability as significant segments of SMEs operate in the informal sector due to a lack of resources or awareness of the formalization benefits.”
He noted that this limits their access to credit, markets, and government support which consequently results in reduced investment, innovation, and growth opportunities.
Obi further explained that this is critical especially to Commonwealth nations, as the Commonwealth controls a combined wealth of about $150 trillion, which is over 10 times their combined GDP of about $14.5 trillion today, and over 30 times the global trade and export value of about $4.8 trillion.
Arguing further on these untapped benefits, Obi said that the Commonwealth, despite controlling one-third of the global population, only contributes below 15% of the World GDP of $100 trillion and with a global GDP per capita of $10,700; while that of the Commonwealth is $3500.
“This shows a huge growth potential, which can be enhanced by investment in SMEs where the bulk of the youths are domiciled, especially within the Commonwealth family.”
“SMEs in Commonwealth countries are essential drivers of economic development and poverty reduction. Formalization and internationalization are crucial pathways to unlocking their potential, fostering innovation, and increasing competitiveness.
On the sidelines of the conference Obi in a meeting with the Honourable Prime Minister of Bangladesh, H. E Sheikh Hasina, congratulated her and her team for what they have been able to achieve in their nation, with the support of SMEs in the last 15 years noting, however, that more still needs to be done.
He corroborated with the Managing Director of City Bank in Bangledesh, Mashrur Arefin, that 80% of job creation and a higher percentage of growth in Bangledesh today are created by SMEs.
He said, “This shows an example of what I have said over the years. In 2009 when I visited Bangladesh, their GDP was $102 billion, with a GDP per capita of $688. Today, their GDP is $460 billion and a GDP per capita of $2700. Their unemployment rate in June 2009 was between 9 and 10%, today it is below 5%. The poverty rate also greatly reduced and they have maintained growth of over 6% within the said time.”
IfnobeGod20: I will advise you take responsibility of this stat. Truth be told our people doesn't go to school the way it was years back. Truancy, thuggery and cultism has been the trade of our teeming youth now. I was in Ogun in 2021 and I was surprised that there was a cult strike and it was reported that it happened among primary school pupils. Same thing in Lagos. Agbero work has become a professional work in Lagos. The stat may be bloated by non-indigene but we cannot take away the fact that our people doesn't want to go to school anymore but looking for quick-fix.
You IPOBS dont just get tired of this impersonation. Your writeup alone exposes you glaringly like a rat.
It will be a clear case of forgery or identity theft.
The court will decide it but because he cant be arrested, the national assembly will be so embarrassed to look away so he will most likely be impeached inine with the constitution.
However if none of these happen, 2027 will surely be a bad year for Tinubu.
9jvirgin: The Suffering of Nigerians will not stop with this overseas traveling. Governance is not about merriment and junketting, it's about understanding the people's problem and providing solutions.
KEVIND: What many Ignorant people fail to understand is that Obidients are not necessarily Labour party members. We wanted a change at the federal level (reason for being an Obidient). A friend is vying for a local government chairmanship election in one of the state soon & he is contesting under APC. As an Obidient,I'll rigorouslly campaign & vote for him. Politics is all about interest, no permanent enemy but permanent interest!
Tapout: And I'm sure the guy is crying not because he was caught robbing with it, but because he done explain say na paintball marker tire, dem no gree.
Modified: Or is it possible he actually modified it to use gas?
They replaced the paintball shots with lead ball shots to make it leathal
Boss347: Honestly, NPF are so funny! They are experts is extortion. Spyder Victor is an inexpensive paintball gun. A simple Google search would have saved them of this embarrassment
If a criminal points it at you pls tell him to shoot. Just pray to god that he has not replace the shots with lead balls.
Angrymode: Please can someone find Tinubu for me in this year book Tinubu said he was part of from that useless University he is claiming he graduated from?
