SmartPolician:
That's because PH is the capital of the state, home to some of the brightest minds in Nigeria and one of the richest LGAs in Nigeria

Interesting......
What would happen if the PH LG chairman also says what the Etche LG chairman says but the reverse?

SmartPolician:
Why are Rivers politicians always aggressive?

The man is right though. If you have an MSc or PhD, what are you looking for in an LC government?

Use your knowledge to solve a major problem or seek employment at the state or federal level.

What makes him right?

What makes Etche LGA different from PH LGA?

CaptainFM1:
Who is the President, and Grand Commander of the Armed Forces?

You are right.
Continue.

CaptainFM1:
Who is in charge of the security agencies again?

I guess in your only understanding its PBAT.

If that's the case, kindly explain to me what the necessity of security vote given and collected by all State governors?


PBAT has been waiting for all State governors to give an Okay for establishment of State Police but the State governors especially those in the North have refused completely....



Keep blaming PBAT for the insecurities caused by the northern elites and former states governors.

sulaak:
Google is your friend.

The military created unproductive states that have given rise to Islamist insurgency and a space that can't be governed. There is no business breaking Kano into three new states.

Maybe I didn't make my question clear enough.......
Please what is the meaning of the name Adama in the language it originated from?


Can you throw more on this and why as regards the bolded in your statement. Thanks.

NairaX:
Honestly, issues like this always come down to perspective. Some people see nationwide prayers as a meaningful step, others feel it doesn’t address the root problems. Both sides have a point.

But instead of attacking each other, it’d be better if everyone focused on the actual issues — insecurity, economy, governance — while still allowing people to practice their faith the way they choose. Nothing stops prayer and practical action from happening at the same time.

Just misplaced priorities. 3rd world country for a reason.

Thr bolded is complete if done right and we not be sanctimonious about it.
Scripture says faith without works is dead.
While praying, it's compulsory that the security agencies should go after the insurgents and their sponsors with lots of fire power and bombs.

sulaak:
I pity you and your nostalgia for a nonsensical leader. The military laid the foundation for the political system that has brought Nigeria Buhari and now Tinubu. The military government created unproductive states and centralised the country. Abacha renamed. Gongola state to Adamawa state (Adama is the name of a Jihadist in the 1800)

So, from your research what is the meaning of Adama and was he the first person to be called that name or is the name a self named by him?

The military government did not create unproductive States but the various States government and governors made their States unproductive. Let's get that right and truthful about it.

CaptainFM1:
I never hear the president declaring state of emergency in all these states, but he was quick to declare it in Rivers.

Somehow, I think military rule is what fits this country.

Well your thoughts are yours alone. If you can agree that Abacha as head of State was a good thing for Nigeria then maybe your thoughts might be right.


Nevertheless, the reason why PBAT won't put a State of emergency in those areas because the economy of the country does not rest there and nothing as of now of serious economic impact and importance that's s there that brings significant revenue to the nation.....

Thr truth is that only the North can solve this issue bedeviling them if they truly want to.
But since the Sultan and Emirs have resolved to remain silent and we have people like Gumi doing what he does best and the security agencies are also condoning such.......then it's tells a lot who is who.

Cherrybae:
Tell the governor to resign if he can't protect his people.

He is the chief security officer of his state.

The Bauchi State governor as well as all State governors who feel they are boxed in by the insurgents must resign and also PBAT should also resign because he demanded that from PGEJ when the country was bedeviled by same issues for lacking courage, boldness and power to showcase in ensuring all those in this nonsense be put down beneath like they put those who they kill.

helinues:
If not that some Nigerians are too emotional to swallow anything, Nikki Minaj with pumped ass is the one defending christians, same Nicki Minaj that always dress half naked is the one more concern about religion.

If you are not ready to use others, be ready to be used

Where are those who dress decently and put on cloaks as show that they are Christians, what have they done?

Are you not so sure many of you who claim to be christians are only in it for social recognition and nothing more.
You don't have any integrity to hold on as proof that you're a Christian...

Anguldi:
Tinubu is scared for his life 📌💯. There are many terrorist all round, abi you know no🤷🏿.

Why will the old man be scared of his life ?
Did they not say it's selfless service to the nation?
If he was amongst those who agitated for a better Nigeria when the military was ruling the nation and he was not killed then as a young man, why fear now that he is the president of the nation!!!!?
Except that story agitation was falsely spoken about....

Winterhaven:
How about be grateful that lives were saved... everything must not be politicized.

So who takes responsibility for those that were killed?

Is the government not already politicizing the death of those killed by the insurgents?


Why has the FG, security agencies and Nigerian military not gone hard on the insurgents ?


Is this how insecurity is fought in the North?

EyeCumInPiece:
I reflected on the picture below and shook my head in shame and disbelief.
Heavily Armed Bandits, some even dressed in army outfits, holding meeting with Nigerian Soldiers and Govt.
At the end, the bandits go home with their guns & possibly with cash settlements.

Indeed Nigeria is a "Disgraced Country"

That's the difference between the North and South.

Truths9ja:
🚨90% of ISWAP terrorising Kogi and Ondo are Ebira by Tribe - Sheikh Gumi, the Terrorist Advocate.

I don't have the data but, Gumi may not be far from the truth. Beside, he knows them all.

One Obadaki was recently recaptured by DSS following his earlier jail break. He allegedly mastermind the deeper life church bloodshed in 2012. I remembered that night too well.

The Terrorist group that attack Apostle Suleiman were Ebiras too. What about the Owo church massacre? I remembered the late Ondo state Governor raising this accusations few years ago prior to his death.

If you grew up in Ebiraland, you will have no doubts on that fact, religious extremism runs through some of our people's vein. It is not hidden. Between ourselves alone, we laid waste of our land. I remembered the time of Baba and Mustapha too. Let me stop here 🧑‍🦯

Why has the security agencies not arrested Gumi ?
What's the difference between Gumi and the Islamic jihadist?

debeey87:
About 2 months ago, I was informed the septic tank in my rental property was full, one of the tenants was unable to flush their toilet and we evacuated the septic pit (on opening the chambers, water level was elevated). This is the first time in 3years or so we are opening the pit since we started to rent it out.

For context, the septic pit was dug about 10 x 12 ft while the waste water collect about 6ft wide not sure about the depth now.

Last week, I was told the septic tank was full again but this time it was noticed that the waste water pit was empting itself into the septic pit. At the time the septic pit was last evacuated,no report of water from the waste water empting into the septic pit was given so I am surprised how this has become the case. After the septic pit was evacuated, the water from the waste water pit still continued to flow into the septic tank ( initial plumber linked both pits together).

I have asked all the tenants to check their flat if anyone left their water running to warrant the waste water pit becoming full all of a sudden in under 3months.

Plumber is suggesting the current water pit isn't absorbing again and should dig another waste water pit.

My question are the following

1. Are there remedies to improve the absorbing rate of the water pits.

2. How far away from the old pit and septic pit should a new water collection pit be dug.

3. Can concrete rings like those used in konga be used in the waste water pit in place of blocks considering the cost to deck the surface.

Any other advice on how to progress will be appreciated.

Thank you.

(1).Anyone telling you to dig another septic/waste pit does have any solution for you.

(2) Does that area experience water flooding from heavy rainfall and water runoff?

(3) Are there any near by water source(rivers, dug out borrow pits, etc, etc)?

We live in cool and quite place, so recently a group of boys that are into cultism relocated to our place, I was brought up in a godly family, and don't follow or join cult, they have been disturbing my life with, boy find us 1k, even when I no get, boy you dey Bleep up, U be juu man, etc.

I am really tired of their bully. I am a calm and quiet person and I don't like rough life, these guys will smoke and shout till night, I am afraid of reporting this to security agency, because I thought they might come after me if they discover I reported them.

So what can I do in this situation?

Image: Google

(1) How old are you?
(2) How old do you think the oldest/eldest in that cult group would be?
(3) Who are you staying with and is the comound you're residing in just only your apartment or there are other apartments and neighbors?


Just because one is raised in a Christian home/family doesn't make that individual a Christian.
If you're not yet born again, become one.
If you are backslider, then please re-dedicate your life back to God through Christ Jesus.
Finally, live a righteous life and let it be seen by all.
God bless you richly.

I think one of the major reasons of sending Kanu to the prison in Sokoto is to ensure that therebe no form of prison breakout by him or those who happen to be his supporters to break him free.....

‘Who Ordered Military Withdrawal 45 Minutes Before School Attack?’, Kebbi Governor Seeks Answers




https://leadership.ng/who-ordered-military-withdrawal-45-minutes-before-school-attack-kebbi-governor-seeks-answers/

Tihs Kebbi State Governor like every politician is using the media to gather emotions and public sympathy.....


The strong question he needs to ask and petition the Military high command and the PBAT FG that requires answers within 48 hours is he and well meaning and true patriotic Nigerians should be told who gave the command that those soldiers who were sent to protect and secure that place were asked to leave and after 45 minutes, evil struck...?

That's the question even PBAT needs to get and let's put an end to all this gimmicks and tricks.

Many people will not understand the meaning one current president honoring one former president.
Because you can never wonder why they don't prosecute one another after leaving office.

You see en, maybe when we get to the top, we will all understand better.

Only poor grassroots people here will always be talking, cursing, abusing, complaining,explaining explaining and explaining tire

Hahahaha...
That is why anything goes in Nigeria...
I'm very sure you're aware of what happens to former presidents/prime ministers in some Asian countries who are found wanting in certain acts of corruption and stealing?

Namaster:
This is a NO BRAINER!

The WHOLE Northern Region should have been LOCKED DOWN a long time ago.

All the states in North and our Northern borders should be locked down for like 6 months for INTENSE Military OPERATIONS.

Especially after they KILLED a General and KIDNAPPED School Children within a span of 3 days.

Lock down. Lock in. And OBLITERATE with reckless abandon.

Instead, our WEAK President is telling us he's DEPRESSED.

MADNESS!

You are calling him a weak president....
But some of you were salivating about Wike and Yerima and making cartons out of it......

The North does not need a lock down for just 6 months.

How do you want the PBAT to solve such issue when some State governors and LG chairmen are on a peace deal and agreeing to pay monthly security taxes to the insurgents....

Some myopic delusional persons are blaming the US for not going into South Sudan to help them but these same Nigerians have forgotten that if such was happening in the Niger Delta and there was pipeline vandalism or explosion the Nigeria military will move fast but since lives are not important to the FG they won't do anything meaningful since it doesn't affect the amount of money they steal.....

Please I need your advice. I am getting married, my fiance asked me to borrow his sister my bone straight and a dress and I refused, is this not a red flag? His sister wanted to wear it for a wedding. He didn’t buy it for me. He’s now really upset and has refused to talk to me for 3 days now. Our wedding is in 4 months and I am contemplating getting out of such a relationship. Please advice

Stick to your decision.
The sister should use what she has or let the brother your fiance use part of the money has for the wedding to buy for his sister.
It doesn't matter even if he is the one who bought it for you or not, it's not his place to tell you to give to his sister.
The sister should have established relationship with you long before now that will enable her come close to you and ask you for such.

Negotiating with terrorist without seizing their weapons is baseless and useless as a useless country

The negotiation was not for them to lay down their arms, that's why.
They know what they are doing, so that the can make use of them in for their personal political issues to settle scores with their frienemies.....

Host78:
you funny boss.

It's that sane act of finny that a herdsman attacked and stabbed a farmer with a knife, the farmer removed the knife and stabbed the herdsman who died later on. The farmer was taken to the court, his account of self defence was not recognized.
The judge said since he had disarmed his attacker, he should have run.
So because the attacker is dead, the farmer was sentenced to death by that State Court.....
That's how funny things are....



It's also funny that some soldiers were court martial and dismissed by the NA for disobeying an order not to shoot at the enemy insurgents even when that act of disobedience made the enemy withdraw rather than thr soldiers withdraw .
These men were under attack but their higher authority said otherwise.


Lots of you are funny because the State governor says something doesn't make it a law if it's not enshrined in the books.
Just as the country is full of class acts

Its obvious these sets of people going into peace deal with these criminals have not actually lost anyone closely related to them and that's why they resort to such senseless and irresponsible agreements that can't be kept to and sustained for long.


Those who loves themselves truly will not desire to bring harm to another if they know that the consequences of their evil will be given them instantly without any form of hesitation.

Putindbutt:
I love Tinubu's team, dem dey burst my brain. No time for acting like a chicken before the western countries ( the grand sponsors of world's terrorism). I love how they have been looking these western bullies in the face and spittle at dem face. You can't accuse us as you accused South Africa of White genocide, you can't order us around like you did to Ramaphosa. This is Nigeria, let that sink into your head.
These guys are hypocrites, they don't give a sh!t whether you're a Christian or Muslim, they don't care about you. They only want Nigeria to play ball, having realized the President of Nigeria has not been warming up to them but rather to BRICS.
The same US that is now taking pictures with one of the most wanted terrorists who became the President of Syria just because he's ready to play ball. Two days ago, Saudi Prince was received to a dinner in the white house and Trump shamelessly told the world that the Saudi Authorities had nothing to do with the death of Khashoggi.. can you believe that!. Just because the Saudi Prince is ready to play ball and invest trillion of dollars in US economy. I love how Tinubu and his men are giving these western hypocrites the middle finger.

Is it not hypocritical to be defending a hypocrite who doesn't want to take or even show the intention of assuming responsibility for their outright failures !!!

Is it not total irresponsibility of one to be throwing blames instead of been on top of the negative situation this insecurity issues continues without any proper checks.


It is hypocritical for this administration and all those who blamed PGEJ administration for not rising up to stoping the kidnapping and deaths in the North, with the Chibok girls saga still alive and they requested that PGEJ resigned from office but this same people can't remember those words of theirs back then...why!!!!!!


These people only crave power to continue the evil in the land.....

Summary:

1. Popular benue cookathon for Guinness world records, Victor Tartenger's brother has been arrested for injuring a fulani herdsmen.

2. The popular cookathon's brother met the herdsmen grazing on his crop farm and confronted them.

3. The herdsman fought him with a machete and stick, he disarmed the herdsman and also injured him.

4. The taraba state government arrested the farmer and is currently demanding 5 million naira to release him. He said this is the state policy.

5. The family has been sending the 'state' the sum of N150,000 weekly to secure his release.

As seen on Victor's page today on Facebook

The first thing to do is to find out if that directive is enshrined is enshrined(documented) as part of Taraba State laws and passed through the Taraba State Assembly as a lawful order for the State.

Just as always and every administration does not show the boldness, courage and truthful will to put an end to this issues bedeviling the North and other parts of the country.
We are so full of politics of self and bring down syndrome, celebrate mediocrity but never in actually trying to do properly alleviate the living standards of the common people.
The common man just as he strives for his/her daily living will also have to self protect/self defend self from external intruders.
