₦airaland Forum

Ishilove:
I have never been a fan of the Nigerian police because of several unsavory personal experiences with them. I have made this known several times on this forum, and one time a police officer Nairalander reached out to me privately to let me know that the despite the bad eggs in the Force, good ones still exist. Although I remain unconvinced (worse now more than ever), I still maintain a cordial relationship with this person.

This afternoon, my SO was stopped by the men in black at Underbridge on the road that leads to Guiness, Oba Akran road, Ikeja. They pulled him over and proceeded to do a 'thorough search' of the vehicle. Surprise surprise, what did they find at the corner of the door of the driver's side?

Yep, you guessed right. Colorado, aka Cannabis, aka advanced SK or whatever allied street adjective is given to this brand of illegal stimulant.

This is someone who has does not even fraternize with people who smoke this nonsense, neither has he smoked this in his life. He hardly even gives people lifts so where did this stick of Igbo come from?

You are right again. Our friendly Nigerian Police Officers dropped it there for the usual hydra headed purposes of extortion, intimidation, theft, thievery, harassment etcetera etcetera.

They handcuffed this innocent young man like a common criminal, and one of them nearly slapped him, but when the officer noticed his unruffled demeanour and almost maniacally calm laughter, they realised that perhaps, just,perhaps they were messing with the wrong candidate.

A took a call from higher quarters before he was released after hours of embarrassment and being shackled like a thief who stole the neighbourhood goat.

Now my question is what would have happened if he did not have contacts that he could reach out to? He would have been hauled off to jail and milked dry. There are so many innocent people in cells languishing because the people who have sworn to serve and protect them have betrayed them.

The Nigerian Police is NOT YOUR FRIEND. When they pull you over and want to search your vehicle, be VERY vigilant. If possible you latch their hands to yours so that all of you will search together in case they want to be unfortunate. Many of them plant illegal substances in people's vehicles and living quarters so that they can have an avenue to extort and harass them, and woe betides you if you don't have either connection or money to bail yourself.

THE NIGERIAN POLICE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND!!

You may be right, in this corrupt nation Nigeria. Generally bad type everywhere,in every organizations,in many homes, you may not be left out, it is only God.
But if you still believe it is all the Police, pls when you have any issue, just contact your ancestors. Good man.

Who be this wanz again..Country dey burn una dey do Romeo and Juliet

The way neo be dey do house boy for this gel DAT year.. I think say this gel go carry am go London

He did not say he wants to travel or he has not traveled before, this guys are doing well already

Then why did you run? You claim that you jumped bail because of invasion of security, that your life was in danger, you for lay your life, it is only IPOB, ESN & UGM that you can decieve

Ovo200:
Sunday can win DSS in the court, he dare you to invade him in the night and come up with a stupid story like this. Where is evidence that the gun wasn't planted in his house? What happens to search warrants due to intelligence gatherings(DSS going to his house in the afternoon with honour, why in the night.
I don't support succession oooo but I think I should have a rethink something better than succession is for all our elites to be massacred

Sabi sabi, teach dem when & how to make arrest of a criminal, probably there is a place in your book that specify time to make arrest

Perfectnumber6:
We shall see if the FG can win this war we dey abroad dey watch the yeye gornment for useless Naija

Which yeye abroad, anybody abroad saying nonsense is a noisemaker, a toothless dog, even for the abroad nobody knows you, e good remain there, be watching, person no get eye, e say e de watch, even for the abroad make you do anything against the government,weda dem go leave you

Without being told, Yorubas are more educated and exposed, even the few amongst them not educated are enlightened, that is why Ighoho's approach to the agitation is different, that is why Nigeria has more respect for Yoruba nation. It is evident in his words. Anybody who doesn't embrace the truth will die of lie, deception & hatred.
The fact that Nigeria has become a shadow of itself because of bad governance, does not mean we should not be sincere as he just did. Though there is one educated illiterate pastor in power, although in every 12 there must be one Judas, meaning 95% of the Yorubas are not doing bad. Argue with your ancestors if you don't agree

Abduction, kidnapping? For a terrorist who jumped bail. Did you say your people should be calm?, No don't be calm, you hear?, Did you say you are going to mobilize? The thunder that will fire you if you don't mobilize as IPOB ESN UGM to the court is still doing serious press ups

Dem bring am, una se dem drag am, talk true, the arrest de pain abi, una for se make dem carry am for head. Una want make e disappear again? His juju will not work dis time ooo, if una like make una de kill all una jujumen.

Wichtig:
Let's hope that evil Fulani herdsmen will not see this as victory and start their killings, rapings and kidnappings in igbo land again.

Don't hope ooo, since the killings of Police and the military by the IPOB ESN (UGM) do not mean anything, since they have deviate from initial intentions, according to them, protecting Igboland from Fulani herdsmen invasion and killings, even the same IPOB ESN & UGM are now perpetrating this same attrocities you complain about now, on your people. Those guns procured for them by Kanu will surely be used for survival, since they have gotten another job "killing & protection", instead of doing their normal businesses

Nnamdi Kanu should rot in jail, Nigeria problem is judiciary. But there is no difference between Miyetti Allah and it's killer herdsmen and Kanu's IPOB ESN UGM, it was because they were not proscribed and declared terrorists. They cannot dictate what the government should do with their partner in crime, despite the protection they enjoy. A DPO, Bur Dooior, who was in Gboko Benue State was reported to have been arrested for not protecting the killer herdsmen during their invasion. The untouchable Miyetti Allah & it's herdsmen should not be talking, so that their attrocities will not be remembered

Agbegbaorogboye:
You actually believe all the nonsense he wrote?
Why was his house in Nnewi not burned down if the threat against him was that strong?
Or does he have military watching his house there?

So the threat must be strong

ikllbrokehoes:
I honestly don't believe this made up lies

Does it matter what you believe, is it the fact that his 1st & 2nd arrest he was with woman or the different media news report of the location of his arrest or the government you don't believe? the bitter truth is, he has been arrested. To God be the glory.

Nigeria has all it takes to do better than this,we are supposed to be producing rather than importing, recently Unilag did a shuttle bus, no govt till date encourages such. Even the local industries trying to survive are not encouraged till date. The so-called educated Jonathan, whom this internet rat Reno Omokri worked with, could not do anything about innovations, inventions by students, scientists & others, they were not supported. Insecurity & lack of electricity is not helping matters . Nobody would have bothered with these kind kind of news. My major problem now is the 500% rise in the cost of foodstuff, not Toyota, Plant or Ghana

You made sense but which freedom are you referring to? be more specific, if it is about Kanu's arrest, you just lost it

Triangles1:
This drama will last and at the end they will settle it as they settled Ojukwu case with presidential rewards and the followers will be left in the middle of ocean with no peddle.

Not this, Ojukwu was a warlord, it was a war situation but Nnamdi Kanu is a terrorist, a killer. The settlement will never be like Ojukwu's own

Lordswazz:
This is big news if true o. FG stirring a sh*tstorm with this move.

No storm, IPOB is too small, he went about it the wrong way, the attack on security, so you expect a Govt to fold it's arm, that is illiteracy. Sunday Ighoho was better off, at least, he is not against the Govt or attack security, though he flout orders but more preferable in his approach. Well meaning people in Igboland did not support Kanu because of his approach. Well, Yorubas are enlightened, so Ighoho should be more careful & conduct himself well. Anybody supporting Kanu can go & die.

All Nigerians?
U are not yet there but the lies has started. U just failed. I pray Nigeria will have a honest leader and cabinet members with good ideas to move this country forward, because without a honest cabinet, the leader will not lead well, even if he is good

With all the recovered items, IPOB Kanu will still deny IPOB ESN is not the UGM, no matter how they cover up, their identity will always revealed. I hail the Police, they should keep it up

The votes, is it for the Party or the candidate?, if it's for the Party he cannot leave, except his tenure ends but if it is for the candidate, then he should be able to leave. This part need to be interpreted by the court to clear the ambiguity. Defection has been there in the past between the Parties, is it now they are noticing it?

It's ok to criticize, but I prefer facts & figures. What do you expect anyway?, which part of the country voted more for him? any investigation is a waste, it's obvious, even at that, appointments reasonable enough, telegraph or whoever prove otherwise, not just propaganda

Women with pepper body,if you like as a man do everything in the and for the house, you will not complain but let a woman do only one thing, the whole world will know. I respect some women that keeps their marriage, knows what marriage is all about, despite how wealthy they are, especially when it is not characterised with domestic violent, wife beating and others

LibertyRep:
If the offence is bailable, then he shouldn't be denied as bail shouldn't really mean the end of the case

His colleagues in the industry should rally around him to perfect the conditions.

If the colleagues and the family has not judged him already to be guilty as charged, some people are actually God, they judge, some are not even comfortable with his bail entitlement

[quote author= post=103053016]Promise kept at last after 25 years!!!
Good Governance.


A state government fulfilling the promise of the Federal Government 25 years later!!!!



Madam Chioma made our country proud since 1996, and our democracy started in 1999,
She was never recognised or rewarded throughout the 16 years of failure, while a certain beautiful frog-eyed thief and her cronies looted our national treasury up to the tune of over 22 BILLION Dollars!!

Nigeria will be great in our lifetime.
The labour of our heroes past shall never be in vain lailai!

Anyways,
Sanwo-Olu has done it again!

All the states in Nigeria should infact understudy Lagos State in all departments.

Lagos State : The State of Firsts!

A country within a country!


Dem MANNA, AKA da truth in da building.

Truth is not bitter, just that people are bitter to the truth........


We believe only animals live in a zoo!
So your comment is not surprising to sane members here.
Now Nairalanders know know who you are.
Replying you further will only amount to waste of precious time and space kiddo
Live with it [/quote]It was a former military administrator of the state Olagunsoye Oyinlola that pledged to give Ajunwa-Oparah a house for winning the gold medal in long jump at the 1996 Atlanta Games and not the FGN. Why don't you just appreciate the Governor and congratulate the gold medalist and just shut up

Harrynight:
Before now i never like this Guy, buh each passing day he impressed me with his ARCHIEVEMENTS and KIND HEARTED and gives me reason to like him more... I wish he wasn't an apc person

Is there any difference? They decamp into theirselves as they like, it is not the party that matters, it is the person

AroleOduduwa2:
I thought crypto was banned in Nigeria or was it banned in southern part of the country only

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) issued a circular in early February warning banks and financial institutions that “facilitating payments for cryptocurrency exchanges is prohibited” and that they needed to identify and close accounts associated with them.
BUT
At the 30th seminar for Finance Correspondents and Business Editors held in Abuja.
Speaking on behalf of the bank's chief, Godwin Emefiele, Deputy Governor Adamu Lamtek said the bank had never banned cryptocurrency activity in the country.....it only prohibit transactions on cryptocurrencies in the banking sector.”

GboyegaD:
Hmm... Can someone please explain why he is doing this?

Why did you not ask when Buhari was revisiting the issue of compensation to Biafran war victims or the demining and destruction of abandoned explosive in the north central, south east, south south region. At least, he remembers the past. Appreciate and encourage,too much hatred is life threatening, it is not good one's health

ikllbrokehoes:
He's a legend, we won't forget him

I don't know about the legend but he will not be forgotten if he touches people's life

Nigerians are lucky, it's not like some other African country where a president can be there for years, at least the years are specified and Nigeria like any other nations are not above mistake, the mistake can be corrected at the next election, that is the best revolution, not blocking the road, making life harder, to disturb fellow poor Nigerians on the street, trying to make ends meet. But if the protesters wants to be stupid, they should go to the Villa, as for me I am thinking about how to survive the costly food stuff, since the government can't help.

Are the Fulani herdsmen no longer the attackers and killers in Benue and other parts of the country, involving also in banditary, kidnapping and other vices. What protection do they need again.
