What nonsense is this?
They are deemed innocent until Makinde can prove otherwise that they are guilty.
BTW, use of handcuffs is to secure suspects and protect the police from unruly behavior.
It has nothing to do with the actual charges filed.
A person could be handcuffed for fighting their neighbor while an armed robber is paraded
without handcuffs.

On a three year old? Some of you are simply evil. If you slap my child like that I swear I will not let the video get out or report to the police.
What you get will straighten you out for life.

I guess you guys missed his point or I hope , i am right about what i think is the situation he is trying to point out


Yahaya Bello's controversial governance has sparked widespread criticism, yet he still receives overwhelming support from some quarters. His administration has faced allegations of corruption, electoral fraud, and incitement to violence, including a US visa ban for undermining democracy in Nigeria

Bello's denial of COVID-19 and opposition to vaccines have also raised concerns. Despite these controversies, his supporters have rallied around him, even after his loss in the 2023 presidential election.

It's puzzling that despite his questionable leadership, people still welcome him enthusiastically. This paradox raises questions about the complexities of Nigerian politics and voter behavior.

Some of Bello's notable controversies include:
- Corruption Allegations: Misappropriation of ₦80.2 billion and laundering charges
- Electoral Fraud: Accusations of rigging and violence during elections
- COVID-19 Denial: Refusal to acknowledge the pandemic's severity
- Vaccine Opposition: Claims that vaccines are harmful
- US Visa Ban: Sanctioned for undermining democracy

These issues have led to widespread criticism, yet Bello's is welcomed with open arms

The Oluwo of Iwo, Osun State, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi, has supported the plan to introduce Sharia law in the South-West.

According to him, Sharia law has been in practice in Yoruba land for a long time.

This came after an Islamic organisation planned the inauguration of a Sharia council scheduled for January 11, 2025, at the Muslim Community Islamic Centre, Oba Adeyemi High School Road, Mobolaje Area, Oyo, Oyo State.

But the inauguration has been postponed indefinitely following public outcry.


The event drew criticism from a cross-section of Nigerians, with many arguing that the predominantly Yoruba South-West was distinct from the northern region, where Muslims were in the majority.

Speaking to Sunday PUNCH, Oba Akanbi, noted that Sharia law was already in Yoruba land.

He said, “We have Sharia banks in the South-West, and these banks operate according to Sharia law. Sharia law has been in Iwo for over 100 years, and there is a Sharia college in Iwo. It’s the right of Muslims to choose customary law or the high court.

Many Muslims feel disenfranchised when it comes to the sharing of inheritance and divorce matters. Western education doesn’t understand the ways of Muslim divorce, marriage, and inheritance. Sharia law is in the constitution of Nigeria, and it’s visible in the North, where there are Nigerians. Anywhere we have Muslims, there is Sharia.”

Oba Akanbi stressed that Sharia law was only for Muslims and did not concern others.

“If any other person likes it, they can convert to Islam, and Muslims can also convert to Christianity. Everyone is free. Sharia shouldn’t be a problem for other religions. No government can deny Muslims their inalienable rights,” he explained.

You are all over her writing thrash. Dem bury your navel for nairaland? Haba. What about Buhari wey Wike mentioned earlier ?

sulaak:
This is a Nigerian problem and not a tribal problem.

The get-rich culture by any means started with the corrupt politicians who became instant billionaires by gaming the system using government contracts, oil subsidies and FX arbitrage; now young Nigeria see their route to instant wealth through kidnapping and Islamic terrorists in the North, ritual killing in the SW and drug trafficking in the SE.

The lack of accountable and good government in Nigeria is a stain on the image of all Nigerians.

I apologise to the SA; hopefully, the criminal will spend a long time in prison in SA and Nigeria.

He will get appeal court interlocutory from the same courts he has accused of being biased and dirty? He will get justice from the same court he has thrown to the mud? You sef think am na

They will so wear Dele out with lawsuits, he won’t forget this in a long time. Dele had a strategy. He expected libel suits, and he had his strategy for it. But he never expected this response strategy from the Afe Babalola team. That’s why the yorubas will always say, if you think you know how to talk, know some people know how to hear

kaludestiny10:
To me, I think the main issue is being swept under the carpet which is, why will Wike relocate the same land to himself through a proxy allegedly? He is using his office to enrich himself fraudulently which is part of the corruption we are talking about.

TruthinAction:
IS that the reason he should allocate the land to himself?
