South South and southeast should wait for the next hundred years when Pandora becomes the president to start bringing forward their claim. You didn't vote for him so you deserve nothing |
Strafudeen:You mod that bans me recklessly here didn't see this post. I intentionally checked his profile n discovered he wasn't banned for the nonsense he typed there. You are full of shit if you don't ban this moniker and you can go to L too. |
Strafudeen:Pandora is a piece of garbage rats, mice and cockroaches fester on. Tell us why he was jailed and discarded by UK authority |
All these passel of headless mob with narcissistic personality disorder will not injure themselves over Tinubu's matter. Pandora that was arrested, and thrown out of UK can never rule this country. JAGABAN is and international man and nobody in your region can reach his status in the next hundred years. He is confident,bold,rugged and fearless. We don't need somebody that cannot control his family. |

King Jaja of Opobo (1821-1891), the wealthiest and most powerful monarch in the Niger Delta and sole founder of Opobo, was Igbo. Born in his native Umuduruoha, Amaigbo, present-day Imo State, and named Mbanaso Okwaraozurumbaa at birth, he was captured by slave traders and sold into captivity in Bonny at the age of 12, where he earned his way out of slavery having also adopted the Ijaw-Ibani culture. Though he generated astounding wealth for Bonny, when that kingdom’s throne became vacant, his quest to vie for it was politically checkmated by a fellow wealthy slave (wealth was a deciding factor in monarchy). Thus, he left with his supporters to establish a new town, Opobo, near Andoni. Bonny and its affiliated British merchants would come to regret that day. The new development Jaja (aka Jubo Jubogha) relocated to in 1869, was named Opobo and the location was strategically positioned that he could transact first-hand with both national and international merchants, effectively becoming a monopolist in the oil palm trade. Trade and the resultant wealth exploded so much so that his former British trading partners lost £100,000 (in 1870), and Bonny pleaded with him to return (which he refused). He then came to the attention of Queen Victoria who, impressed by his influence, recognised him as King of Opobo in 1873 and also personally presented him with a sword in Buckingham Palace in 1875 after he sent troops to assist Britain in the Ashante War. The Scramble for Africa began in the 19th century. Jaja was infamous for resisting foreign political and economic influence and he kept taxing the British merchants much to their indignation. Greed and the fear of Jaja’s influence led the new Consul-General, to invite Jaja out of his kingdom and on board a ship, ”The Goshawk”, for trade discussions. Once on board, a deportation order was served on him. He was illegally tried and convicted in Gold Coast, present-day Ghana, in 1887, and exiled to Saint Vincent in the distant West Indies and to be later relocated to Barbados. His pleas to return to his kingdom were granted in 1891. Unfortunately, he died in Tenerife, en route to Opobo, after being allegedly poisoned with a cup of tea. After his death, the influence of Opobo died with him. Jaja’s body was received with much sorrow by his people who gave him a full, honourable royal burial. He was 70.

The Lagos State Government will today, Wednesday, arraign one Uzuokwu Solomon for offences relating to making hoax calls for the emergency responder. The Deputy Director, Public Affairs of the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Ololade Agboola, confirmed this in a statement on Tuesday night. Ololade said the offence was punishable under the Lagos State Fire Service law and Command and Control Centre law 2013. According to the statement, 18 years old Solomon allegedly called the emergency line of the Fire Service on Friday, April 14, 2023, at 5:35 pm from Harmony Estate in the Ajah area of the state and reported a fire emergency within the estate leading to the activation of emergency processes and eventual dispatch of the fire trucks from Lekki Phase II Fire service station. It read in part, “On arrival, it was discovered that there was no fire incident in the estate. Because of the frequency of such calls in the past, the Estate security helped in the investigation which led to the arrest of the notorious false caller. “Consequently, the culprit who had been arrested is scheduled to be arraigned before a court of competent jurisdiction at Ogba Magistrate on the 19th of April, 2023 by 9.00am. “Speaking with Journalists, The Director Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service, Mrs Margaret Adeseye expressed her delight in the arrest of the culprit while reiterating the stand of the State government on malicious false calls which is punishable under the Lagos State laws. She believes that the arrest and consequent arraignment will serve as a deterrent for other misguided citizens who are in the habit of making false calls and misleading emergency responders.” Ololade added that false calls have astronomically increased in the last six months. |
