Foreign Affairs / Re: Russia To Finland, Sweden: We Will Deploy Nukes To The Baltics If You Join NATO by bkool7(m): 3:54pm On Apr 14, 2022
Ohislee:
If US truly wants world peace, they should start by disbanding all military alliances like NATO.

Military alliance are like cult groups. An attack on one is an attack all and this is a threat to non members of such alliance.

As an individual, I don't know how you will feel if your next door neighbour, joins a deadly cult group that are your one time enemy. This means, they can start having their meetings next door. The slightest misunderstanding with your neighbour, becomes a misunderstanding with the entire cult group. I believe this is what Russian is trying to avoid.

Aside this, cult groups give rise to other cult group. Most people join this groups for protection. This can also be said for military alliances. It would give rise to rival military alliance.

NATO is a cult. Russian is within their right to defend itself from cultist.


Russia is also part of a fragile alliance with China. Blood oath is not involved. Just meet certain democratic conditions.
The alliance is to protect smaller nations. Remember, the US is the world's capital, as such it's a father figure to all nations.

You neighbours will only make alliance for protection if you are a bully with sinister motives.

I'm disappointed you didn't mention how Russia has been trying to subjugate all former Soviet Union members by increasing its nuclear status while neglecting it's economy. With the number of nuclear bombs in Russia neighbouring countries have no choice but to look for protection. Because there is no how you'll live together and their won't be fighting
Politics / Adulterated Petrol: No Sanctions For NNPC, Importers, Say Reps by bkool7(m): 3:39pm On Apr 14, 2022
The House of Representatives, on Thursday, has said nobody will be sanctioned for the supply of adulterated Premium Motor Spirit, otherwise known as petrol, which caused a major crisis in Nigeria’s fuel chain and untold hardships on Nigerians.

At the plenary on Thursday, the House considered and adopted the reviewed report on the investigation by its Committee on Petroleum Resources (Downstream), which exonerated both the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, former Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, and the suppliers in the Direct Sale-Direct Purchase deal between the Federal Government and the importers.

Tempers had frayed in the House on February 10, 2022, over the importation of methanol-contaminated petrol. Several members who spoke on the development called for sanctions against Federal Government agencies and officials who failed to carry out due diligence before passing the product for onward distribution to marketers.
The House had consequently resolved to investigate the matter, insisting that those in the import and distribution chain, whose action or inaction led to the spread of the commodity, must be held accountable.

The Majority Whip, Mohammed Monguno, had moved a motion of urgent public importance, titled ‘Need to Investigate the Release and Sale of Adulterated Premium Motor Spirit in Petrol Stations Across Nigeria.’
Adopting the motion, the House mandated the Committee on Petroleum Resources (Downstream) to “investigate the release of adulterated PMS across the country, with a view to ensuring that culprits are brought to book as well as make recommendations towards curbing a reoccurrence of such incident.”

The House also asked the committee to “ascertain whether the Nigerian specification concerning importation, distribution and dispensing of the alleged toxic petrol in Nigeria, from January till date, complies with international standards.”
Also, the lawmakers further asked the committee to “investigate the roles played by the NNPC Limited, Standard Organisation of Nigeria, Nigeria Customs Service, Nigerian Navy, any other government regulatory agencies, limited liabilities companies and individuals in the unfortunate episode.”
Furthermore, the House asked the NNPC Limited to suspend the four companies involved in the importation of the adulterated PMS.

However, the committee had presented a report which failed to address the main issues for which it ordered the probe, causing the House to reject it.
Several members of the House had, on March 23, 2022, criticised the earlier report by the committee as failing to hold any persons, group or company responsible for the development or recommend sanctions.

BabaO2:

It doesn't add up
Tinubu used osinbajo as his number 1 law officer for 8 years, that's a big trust. Even from the mischievous analysis, if he didn't approve osinbajo, Osinbajo wouldn't have been vp. As at the time of the 2015 election, aregbesola was one of the major tink tank of Tinubu structure, it doesnt matter who named osinbajo.
Another lie and childish beleive talk is buhari's overbearing attitude when he has not become or even sure of becoming president.
The only truth is, no one should and can claim the actual understanding of Osinbajo's vp nomination and approval between Tinubu and Buhari. Buhari himself was helped to be apc candidate, not by his power or sagacity, but by sagacity of Tinubu.


You don't know the genesis of Buhari and Tinubu.

Since 2011 Buhari had made it clear he wasn't running with Tinubu. That was what made the propose merger collapse prior to 2011 election. Buhari has away frowned at a Muslim/ Muslim ticket. That's why he insisted of Tunde Bakare

Peter Obi will use an Innoson made Vehicle as president. He was the man who made a N5 billion down payment to purchase Innoson vehicles for Anambra state government whih made it possible for the company to start production in the first place. He had the foresight.

Peter Obi will cut down the over-bloated cost of governance in Nigeria by over 40 percent. This man refused to accept a house both in Awka and Abuja as is customary with departing governors. His motorcade never exceeded 5 vehicles and flew economy class as a governor.

A proven track record of delivering solid government policies to his people as governor. Man left money in the bank for his successor too. $155 million in 3 Nigerian banks, and over N7 billion. His 2 children had to get real jobs while their father was a state chief executive. In this same Nigeria?.

Nigeria, is this your man or the primitive, name and age falsifying thief from Iragbiji?


Is Peter Obi using Onnoson now?

In the beginning of the Mondays sit at home, all fulani and northern posters were against the IPOB declared sit at home. They opened threads upon threads to say that Igbos are shooting themselves on the foot and dragging Igbos with IGR depletion and joblessness.

Fast forward to today, after they see a region getting richer while sitting at home, the strategy changed.

Fulani people now open multiple threads to support the sit at home, this time, using it to kill people and blame IPOB. The same fulani that spoke against sit at home are supporting sit at home, while real Igbos don't even complain.

Soludo is interested in stopping the sit at home because security forces are using same to commit crimes in the region, so they can blame ipob.

Crime / Train Attack: Security Agencies Negotiating With Terrorists On Abductees - NRC by bkool7(m): 4:54am On Apr 09, 2022
Security agencies are currently handling issues around negotiations for the release of abducted passengers, who boarded the Abuja-Kaduna train that was bombed by terrorists on March 28, 2022 in Kaduna.

It was gathered on Friday from the Nigeria Railway Corporation that efforts were being made to secure the release of the passengers, as the terrorists had been contacting their family members.

The Managing Director, NRC, Fidet Okhiria, also told our correspondent that 12 out of the 14 coaches of the attacked train had been recovered and moved to the corporation’s stations.

He stated that the half capsized coach had been pushed back to a standing position as it almost tumbled following the explosion of the bomb planted by terrorists on the rail line.

Asked if the NRC was involved in the negotiations with the terrorists for the release of the abducted victims, Okhiria replied, “The security people are handling that.

“Whatever information our men get, they pass it to them (security agencies). We don’t talk with those people (terrorists) at all. When the families (of the victims) call us, we pass them to the security agencies.

“This is because we are not in position to talk to them (terrorists). It is an issue being handled by the security agencies.”

The total number of recovered coaches is now 12 out of 14. These include all 11
coaches of the attacked AK9 train and one coach of the rescue train. All 12 coaches recovered have been moved safely to our stations.

“Efforts are continuing to recover the remaining two coaches and Loco 2809. Intensive and more expansive track repair works have also been achieved at the incident site.”

Okhiria said the status of the 362 passengers and 20 train crew members on board the train remained the same as of the last update, adding that the corporation would continue to update the general public on the latest developments.

He appreciated the security agencies for their continued support and stated that the NRC would keep working hard till all the abducted passengers were reunited with their families.

Members of the family of a seven-month pregnant woman joined other families to stage a peaceful protest at the Radio House in Abuja on Thursday to demand her release.

“This is because we are not in position to talk to them (terrorists). It is an issue being handled by the security agencies.”

Providing updates on the incident, the NRC boss stated that extensive rolling stock recovery had been achieved.

He said, “Specifically at the close of work today (April 7, 2022), the half capsized coach (SP 00003) has been pushed back to a standing position and the coach (SPA 00002) was re-railed and pushed to the Rigasa Station.

“The total number of recovered coaches is now 12 out of 14. These include all 11 coaches of the attacked AK9 train and one coach of the rescue train. All 12 coaches recovered have been moved safely to our stations.

Members of the family of a seven-month pregnant woman joined other families to stage a peaceful protest at the Radio House in Abuja on Thursday to demand her release.

A relative of the woman, Aliyu Mahmud, led the protesters, who displayed placards with different inscriptions.

The protesters had urged the Federal Government to redouble its efforts in rescuing the victims.

The Minister of State for Transportation, Ms Gbemisola Saraki, said security agencies were working hard to secure the freedom of the victims.

She said at a ministerial briefing, “The Ministry of Transportation is working with security agencies. It will be premature for us to say too much before the outcome of the exercise.

“I assure you that it is a comprehensive exercise and we implore each and all of us to exercise patience pending the outcome.

“We are very concerned about those kidnapped and we assure you that the security agencies are doing the best they can.”

Crime / Osun Man Who Stole 50 Yam Seedlings, 10 Others Pardoned by bkool7(m): 12:26am On Apr 02, 2022
April 2, 2022 by Bola Bamigbola
 Eleven convicted inmates serving various jail terms in Ile-Ife and Ilesa Correctional Centres in Osun State, but with option of fine, on Friday regained freedom after their fines were paid by the state government.
The affected inmates were released during a visit to the correctional centres by a team from the state Ministry of Justice led by the Solicitor General, Mrs Kemi Bello, who represented the Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Femi Akande.
The leadership of Nigeria Correctional Service, Osun State Command, had written to the Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola, recommending for pardon some convicts serving terms after conviction for minor offences which carried option of fine.
The Controller of Correction, Osun Command, Olanrewaju Amoran, while speaking during the visits, said seven inmates in Ile-Ife correctional centres were pardoned, while four others serving in Ilesa Correctional Centre were also released.
Speaking further, Amoran said “this initiative will boost morale of staff and will encourage them to increase effort in trying to reform and counsel these inmates.
“Government is embarking on this intervention to see that those who have changed their attitude, having undergone serious grooming from us, are freed.”
In her remarks, Bello, said the gesture was part of efforts by the Oyetola administration to decongest correctional centres in the state, adding that when names of inmates convicted for minor offeces, that have shown remorse were compiled, the government promptly paid their fines.
She charged the released inmates to ensure they did not involve in act that could return them to the Correctional Centre.
“11 inmates were considered  based on the recommendation of those who are managing them in the custodial centres. 7 inmates from  in Ile-ife and 4 serving in Ilesa were pardoned,” Bello concluded.
One of the released inmates, simply identified as Rasheed, who stole 50 yam seedlings from a colleague’s farm, and was sentenced to 2-year jail term, but had only served 5 months out of the term, during an interview with Saturday PUNCH, promised to turn a new leaf.

Crime / Six Herdsmen Bag Life Imprisonment For Kidnapping In Kwara by bkool7(m): 12:12am On Apr 02, 2022
A Kwara State High Court sitting in Ilorin on Friday sentenced six Fulani Herdsmen to life imprisonment for kidnapping.

Justice Hannah Ajayi found the men guilty and convicted them on offences of conspiracy, kidnapping and illegal possession of firearms.

Those convicted after standing trial before the Court for about five years included; Tambaya Abubakar, Babuga Umaru, Shehu Umaru, Mojumba Bello, Abubakar Juli and Mamma Lawali.

The prosecution had charged the six accused persons with conspiracy, kidnapping and possession of firearms.

The convicts were alleged to have conspired and kidnapped one Usman Mohammed while armed with two single barrel guns at Osi in Ekiti Local Government area of Kwara State in 2017.

The charge further revealed that the convicts took Mohammed into the bush where they demanded a ransom and were paid N400,000 by the victim’s family.

The convicts who pleaded not guilty to the charges during the course of the trial told the court through their separate counsel that they were Fulanis who reared cattle and were always busy on their various farms attending to their animals.

Justice Ajayi in her judgment found the six accused persons guilty and sentenced them to life imprisonment.

The Kwara State Director of Public Prosecution, Barr Abdulmumini Jimoh (SAN), who prosecuted the matter, expressed satisfaction with the verdict adding that it would serve as a deterrent to others.
