Education / Re: Kiki Mordi Replies Kemi Olunloyo, Unblocks Her by bighorlus(m): 4:00am On Oct 10, 2019
A woman is raped and molested, when she comes forward we criticise her for not having evidence, some will say she is making up the rape accusations, becase it's most likely consented sex.
Kiki summons courage to get evidence to expose what we all know is a major problem in our society , and here we are still criticizing her.

TV/Movies / Re: This Is How Much Nigerians Have Spent Voting On BBNaija by bighorlus(m): 8:04am On Sep 30, 2019
GeoAfrikana:


BBN is what Americans call a rip-off. When people are tricked to pay for what doesn't improve their lives.

An example is 300% increase in a perfume's price due to carton design.

True nobody was forced, but they were tricked. Even 419ers don't force you to pay money.

Now that they sense that the public knows their trick, they'll probably come up with a new rip-off tactic in future editions. They'll start giving gift and price to random voters. Even that one too will be a bigger rip-off.

They have started giving gifts already, even the furnitures in the house would be won by random voters. Interesting times we live in

The Nigeria security outfits gave birth to these daredevils! Let me tell you how it works

1. The police kills a citizen extra judicially and you expect the families of those killed to keep silent.
2. Innocent people went on protest, police killed them and dumped their bodies in a pit.
3. Lots of people lost their families to the attack by military men and the victims were buried in unmarked graves.
4. Amnesty reports some of these cases but the security agencies use the power of the media to discredit such reports.
5. All these attacks are revenge killings carried out by aggrieved citizens of the country who are masquerading as bandits, herdsmen or boko haram.
6. The summary of the whole matter is that Nigeria is Technically at War! undecided

I agree with you sir

Our policemen have been enjoying a country where crime hasn't been perpetrated by people who carry good guns and are ready to show their superiority . Nigerian police have been used to basically harrssing harmless civilians, collecting bribes indiscriminately on the road without fear and shame .
They are never prepared for this real criminals.
Their stance on the road is ridiculous as they are busy counting money or looking for the next victim to rip off. That's why when the real criminals surface they are caught unawares or they are not skilled enough to face them.
I think our police needs total overhauling and retraining. People are frustrated and crime is on the rise, we need a policemen who fit and are on the road to protect citizens not to make naira

But is he wrong to protect his intellectual property?

He has is own issues with turface no doubt.
In the end
We are suffering a broken system in the industry (non functional collective societies) if not blackface singing or not, should be enjoying his paycheck from his works.

You are pained my brother, imagine that you were the one that has the bag containing some good money and valueables.....Nigeria is like a cancerous wound likely unable to heal

Are you saying my ownership of the money justifies burning the person alive? My point is it's the society that's failed, because if we were structured and people know they will get justice from the law, then the sane thing to do would be to call the authorities.

What’s with our nation and burning people alive!!
The ones that milk our economy with bullion van and pen/ paper, those who transfer govt properties to their kindreds, we still go ahead and choose them as our mentors!! We are mo’fuckinng hypocrites in Nigeria!
At least he didn’t kill anyone they could beaten some sense into him then hand him over to the law keepers

Useless mentality. Instead of channelling such anger into civilised protests against the real thieves, we would rather do justice on a petty thief.

REVOLUTION: Sowore was not properly advised, He may be sentenced to death - Richarmond O. Natha-Alade

Richarmond O. Natha-Alade

Today is another sad day, the day when youthful exuberance met another doom; the day we may continually remember another youth, not as martyr or hero but as scapegoat of ignorance and lawlessness.

Arrest of Sowore is long overdue, due to his stand as a sore loser who value less of democratic process that proved him unpopular in the last general election. He simply couldn’t get over the severe pain and mental illusion his votes availed him despite the noise and blackmails all over the media.

Nigeria is not a zoo
Perhaps, Sowore was not properly guided. I would assume he never made any legal consultation before allowing himself to be driven adrift of a canoe with no paddle. He had simply played into the hands of his hunters by robbing petrol on his body despite knowing he was lying next to fire. Isn’t that foolishness?

Or how do one explain, that a seasoned journalist or knowledgeable legal practitioner does not know the difference between the word ‘peaceful protest’ as constitutionally guaranteed and ‘Revolution’ which is a capital offence under Nigeria criminal law.

To make matter worse, Sowore danced naked before an open fire, declaring Tunisia and Somalia situation and threatening suicide by burning himself to death in order to create a situation of unrest that may eventually lead to the destabilization of the country on all fore.

To Sowore or whoever his advisers are, it is a treasonable felony punishable by dead to incite the public to overthrow of a democratically elected government by any means; that is the simple and number one definition of ‘revolution’ you called for. No matter how it is garnished or whatever your intentions are, you just committed treason. Every thief has reasons to have stolen; it can be out hunger, out of jealousy, out of desire to be great or greater, out of greed or out of mischief etc. yet, he would never be absolved or justified for stealing, he would be tried and convicted for stealing. That is a perfect situation to describe your conduct no matter your intentions. Or at least, it may be another beautiful content in a rubbish package, which no one would look at.

Do you know that an attempt to commit suicide by words or action is a serious crime punishable by 14 years imprisonment under Nigerian law? That is another mistake you made. How do you come without facing trial for attempting suicide when you already declared to burn yourself alive to death to spark rage on the day of your protest? Tell us what is peaceful about death and violence?

For your education, the word revolution which you are brandishing, calling for and using anyhow over the years is not an ordinary English word; it will be taken serious by any serious government as other English words as; calling for murder, kidnapping, rape, coup d’état and other violence. If you have other explanations as to what you meant by revolution, court maybe your home till the next of years to come.

The Encarta Encyclopedia Dictionary (2007) edition defines revolution viz: “Overthrow of government, a ruler or political system”. It may have other definitions under wish you may resile, unfortunately, your intention had been enhanced and/or bloated out by your utterances to burn yourself alive till death in order to cause in Nigeria what happened in Tunisia or Somalia. Circumstantial evidence in this respect would ground you an easy conviction for both offences.

Mr. Sowore, do not listen to your hailers, praise singers and flatterers; all of whom knows how to hail persons to oblivion or death and forget such persons in matter of weeks when there is another distraction. We are in a peculiar nation. I beg of you to settle with your accusers before it is too late. El-zazakky, Dasuki and Nnamdi Kanu among others, who are in prison, serving forced disappearance and seeking asylum all over may be something small compared to your situation if you don’t seek timely remedy.

One of the Laws of Power is choosing your targets / fights wisely and not offending the wrong person; I hope you know this President Buhari too well?

I wish you well.

NIGERIA IS A CONFIRMED ZOO. Where you and I have no human rights, where we have no voice, where the political powers rule over us as they please.
