Even with a video proof, I tell you!

fluffybaby:
In Nigeria, even if you have a video proof of the rape, they will NEVER resign.
Instead they will build biger thrones and higher walls to show the masses that the position is theirs and so shall it remain.
Besides rape does not count as a crime in Nigeria. The penalty is 6 months in jail or 50k compensation to the victims father (if its an underage person) in a regular court. While in a sharia court you get a new wife as reward for rape. If the victim is an unmarried female. If the victim doesnt agree then she gets the cane while the good people of Nigeria blame her for allowing a man rape her and the idiots of Nairaland will say she enjoyed it. Nigeria law is friends with rapists.

Exactly my point..at the name of any scandal in a developed clan, the person at the centre of the controversy will just resign from public/corporate office. But why is that not applicable in Africa? is a cultural thing or the economy has its bearing also on the matter?

DrLikita:
At least he resigned. Some other leaders will stay there and justify what they did.

Jolllyjoy:
hehehehehehe.


Goodmorning

Can I call you ds morng? Inbox me!

Israeli Vice Premier Silvan Shalom, a veteran politician in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing Likud party, resigned on Sunday following allegations that he had sexually harassed several women during his career. The decision to step down by Shalom, who also served as the country's interior minister and once held the post of foreign minister, was not expected to affect the stability of Netanyahu's government. Israeli media have reported in recent days that several women have complained that Shalom harassed them. Israel's attorney general on Sunday instructed the police to investigate the allegations. "I have decided to resign my position as minister and member of the Knesset (Israel's parliament)," Shalom said in a statement, adding he was worried about the toll that recent events might take on his family. Shalom is not the first high-level Israeli politician to be forced from office in a scandal regarding allegations of sexual misconduct. Former Israeli president Moshe Katsav left office in 2007 and was later sentenced to seven years in prison after being convicted of twice raping an aide when he was a cabinet minister in the late 1990s, and sexually assaulting two other women who worked for him while he was president. Katsav denied any wrongdoing.

When a renowned Compere makes a very big blunder at world stage!
The Miss Universe contestant from the Philippines is this year's winner but for one brief moment Sunday evening, it appeared as if it might be a repeat win for Colombia.

Colombia contestant Ariadna Gutierrez Arevalo was already wearing the crown as this year's Miss Universe winner when host Steve Harvey returned to apologize.

Harvey says it was his mistake and that he would take responsibility for not reading the card correctly that named contestant Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach this year's winner and Colombia the first runner-up.

A mystified Wurtzbach appeared stunned as she walked to the front of the stage alongside the crown-wearing Arevalo before last year's Miss Universe from Colombia removed the crown and placed it on Wurtzbach's head instead.

The competition started with women representing 80 countries between the ages of 19 and 27. For the first time, viewers at home weighed in, with their votes being tallied in addition to four in-person celebrity judges.

NBCUniversal and Donald Trump co-owned the Miss Universe Organization until earlier this year. The real-estate developer offended Hispanics in June when he made anti-immigrant remarks in announcing his Republican presidential run.

That led Spanish-language network Univision to pull out of the broadcast for what would have been the first of five years airing the pageants and NBC to cut business ties with Trump.

The former star of the "Celebrity Apprentice" reality show sued both companies, settling with NBC in September, which included buying the network's stake in the pageants.

That same month, Trump sold the organization that includes the Miss Universe, Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants to entertainment company WME-IMG.

Get a German Shepherd ds time

Don't bother yourself, brother! You are not a wanderer and I am not sure you are in Wonderland!


But if you really want to know.............I will confess to you cos she told me............


She is praying you stop thinking about what you can't do anything about!

Which aspect of the judgment is not clear abeg? These judges are thorough and in the voice of the lead judge...they are like Caesar's wife...above board!

ElijahDGreat:
I support the sack. How can a university decide to run a primary and secondary schools, employ teachers and expect not only the government to pay them, but to pay them the same salary scale with those university counterparts?
It is a case of a young man having girlfriends and expect the father to also pay their bills.
Good riddance!!!, let the institutions pay them with internally generated revenues.

Guy, can you please copy and paste this post multiple times to help educate Nigeria youths here?! My heart bleeds to see educated illiterates having free spaces all over the place!

Attempt to be FTC has turned many Nairaland young minds dullards!
SMH, why won't you just always take time to read posts carefully before commenting! This is a bad signal and signage for the future..

The letter dated between March-April 2015 stated that staff schools and affiliate institutions be removed from payroll of the Universities!
Despite the fact that the decision was taken by the past administration, I think this new government have responsibility to make informed choices!
BTW people who called for the head of Ameachi for commissioning train station done by GEJ, should not complain if the sack initiated by GEJ is finalized by the education minister!

Which time person sow cloth wey he no get floor to roll it on! No problem jawe, moi buwoda! Take your time, if you like marry at 70, my grandson can be ur bestman!

The waiter must be a Nigerian cos that's d spirit of Naija people! I love my country, I celebrate her people!

Press Share if you believe the faithful waiter is a Nigerian..
Click Like if you disagree!

Chai, Chelsea oh my Chelsea, you shall surely rise and the rivers will soon turn red again! The rivers have always been red...*winks

Now, it is Chelsea's turn..Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester have all passed through these waters!

My simple take is that NCC is just waking from slumber and MTN is not waking up to the reality yet!
MTN like a lot of multinationals have lived beyond their space in my country over the years because of impunity caused by monster called corruption but there is a new sheriff in town, his name is PMB and stealing even a track of an upcoming artiste's songs is corruption!

SMH...Nigerian youths sometimes can make one shed tears! Ignorance palpably written all over the places!
If unbundling the corporation will make the system deliver better, what's d cause of alarm? Do you want things to continue the ways they have always been and expect a different result? Haba!
Let the 1100people to be sacked come out and cry to you first before you carry bowl now! Average severance pay for lower cadre in nnpc is about 6M naira, challenge me with opposing facts! So I ask you, why should a man who can't set up a life with 10M continue in job anywhere else?
The problem of my country is labyrinth, it takes a focused man not a lily livered to lead ds nation! This was how distractions destroyed the good man with all of his luck...my people have come again, complaining about every move not ready to sacrifice nothing for the change they clamoured for!

O se

Mustay:
I have no problem with the gesture, however I have with the publicity, especially if it's intentional.

On a lighter note, didn't the NPF say we should be careful with hampers?

http://dailypost.ng/2015/11/30/be-careful-with-hampers-this-christmas-police-warn-nigerians/

No my dear, don't have problems with both! The face of the guy did not in any way show there, that u could have called personal glory but in a world where attitudes are shaped by news, good attitudes can only spread faster with publicity...and it should be encouraged!

BTW, she is a police, so she won't have problems sorting the hamper in case of bomb!

The fact is that Nigerians are just good people! Somebody is ready to work hard, another is ready to recognise and reward hardwork...that's d spirit of Naija people!
Not minding the #dasukigate, hardwork pays!

On this, I am not with the army, abeg! I think they are just trying to do a fast number of those guys!
Nigerian Army is just trying to be proactive with other Islamic groups that may want to turn bloody like the BHites, curbing or crushing them before they start misbehaving which is fine but don't make me look like a mallo, I won't take that!

Na wa oh...the red car that has been packed jeje, spoiled for just about 5yrs too is involved!
looks more like James Bond things

Good..I welcome such development full time!
Though it is looking too late but better than never.
The fight against extremism must be from within the Islamic circle...
No one will need to be convincing others that Islam is a religion of peace, we all will simply see it!
Islamic countries and leaders across the globe must take up this responsibility!
