Acheampong and Neto both on yellow against Grealish, one of them must come out

If Alonso ignore the signs , he will see wonders .

If Graelish really bring his A-game , Achempong should get a second yellow before 60 minutes .

Police Report clearing the Portuguese

User09:
I'm sorry but I'm not seeing the correlation here.

Isnt it easier to just go after the truck driver/company in Portugal?

Lawyer friend is letting emotions do his argument for him

I think the lawyer friend is just trying to use his profession as a lawyer to see if they shake down Dangote and get financial support for the guy’s family .

He mentioned how the guy’s wife is seriously ill and the kids require financial support .

raumdeuter:
That case is a stretch a big stretch I think they saw Dangote is going international and they want to hold his blokus while they can no matter how frivolous

Dangote didnt renew his contract and they somehow arrested him,
he got another job which he lost
then relocated to Portugal and was knocked down by a truck while riding a bike

His accident was not as a result of any other thing in his life before meeting Dangote, was not as a result of getting fired by the other company, not by anything wey happen since he got to Portugal and not that he got distracted thinking about Dangoe(Not GF wey leave am or FC Porto losing to Benfica) while riding bike or the truck driver being reckless. Na that Dangote issue gangan!!

I can also trace the sapa wey dey catch me today to the insult wey one girl give me for Primary 5 wey affect my mental health anytime I think about it. Especially since I found out the girl is a big Madam now and married to A billionaire

Of course it’s a stretch . There’s no direct relationship between the guy’s death and his former job at Dangote .

What he should’ve done while alive was to sue Dangote for false imprisonment either while he was in Nigeria or immediately he got back to Portugal .

Theflint1:
1+ 1 = Eba.

Wetin concern Dangote with random accident wey the guy get on e own time and in a location of his choosing.

They claimed he was depressed from his ordeal in the hands of Dangote; he was distracted as a result of thinking which resulted in the accident .

The whole thing looks far fetched and will not really fly .

But it can cause serious repuattional issues for Dangote’s business sha . His staff welfare will come under scrutiny

Friends and families of Dangote’s former head of security are dragging him for alleged complicity in his death in Portugal .

The Portuguese was employed as head of security on 3 year contract . At the expiration of the contract , he continued to work while waiting for the contract to be renewed. They paid him only basic salary but other benefits and bonuses that he enjoyed while he was still on contract did not come along with the basic salary .

The guy got frustrated after a year and got a job in Abuja with another company which prompted him to resign at Dangote . The HR team accepted his resignation but Dangote later called him for a meeting . It was at the meeting he was arrested and was accused of sabotage .

The whole arrest affected him psychologically but he was later released after the police found out the allegations by Dangote could not be proven . He later lost the Abuja job offer and had to relocate back to a Portugal in his depression .

The guy was knocked down by a truck while on his bike in Portugal . His lawyer friend has claimed that his work issues that drove into depression was likely responsible for his death .

Dangote Brand and communications team go really see work do o, especially this period that he is planning on expanding his refinery business to other countries .

His international lenders too will be raising serious concerns about his staff welfare going forward

i think this may just be a new tactic by criminals that police are in on

like i said earlier this year at 2 am thieves broke into my neighbours house. the man was out of town but he had cctv. he called me. i started banging on his gate and i woke up everyone in the estate, the guy called opc and police. they caught one of the robbers in the house. as the dragged the guy out he was talking gibberish and nonsense. but he was clearly educated and had a dhl uniform. i assumed he was high, but someone else said no, he is just pretending to be crazy. the fact that the police who are normally violent started handling the guy with kid gloves say to me that this is a game they all understand

I can’t invalidate your experience and I also don’t trust Nigerian police

Theflint1:
I don't think police alone can release him, especially for a case of this nature. It has to go through the courts.

Let me tell what you what I know from reading crime section of Nigerian newspapers from a very young age .

When Nigeria police arrests a suspect for a serious crimes like robbery, gender based violence , kidnapping , etc ; they would usually send the file of the suspect to Directorate of Public Prosecution (DPP) of the state where the crime took place .

The DPP will now advise the police on prosecution or otherwise .

I don’t know if that happened in this case , but I believe if it did the DPP will clearly let the police know that prosecuting the guy may just be a waste of tax payers funds cos his lawyers might plead insanity and he may likely walk .

I can’t vouch for Nigerian Police’s credibility , but I struggle to see what financial inducements the relatives of the suspect can offer which the police cannot get more from the victim car dealer .

GloriousGbola:
A diagnosis patient who is demonstrably a danger to society cannot be left alone. Arguing that Dayo and nihilistijnr are the same person is not the same scale as arming yourself with juju, driving through a barrier and running people over with a car.

Personally I would say the guy first needs to be tested by a court appointed psychiatrist. He was stable enough to arrange for juju, stable enough to con and woo a dealer into handing a car to him. To me it is more a case of failed parents who deploying their black sheep's escape plan.

At the risk of sounding like defending the suspect , I hope you know that it’s only the police that can charge him to court . And it’s only when the police charge him to court you can start talking about court appointed psychiatrist.

I don’t know what evidence the police relied on before releasing him , but I want to believe the police would at least do due diligence before releasing him .

In fact, the police has a lot to gain if they charge him to court instead of releasing him. The guy and his family are poor and have absolutely nothing to offer the police to facilitate his release on grounds of insanity . The car dealer has deeper pockets to fund police to “deal” with him .

Methinks the police just don’t want to do exercise in futility by charging an obvious insane person to court knowing he would still walk anyways .

raumdeuter:
Are you sure about the bold cos I know when taking for a test drive they should ask for your Licence and insurance.

Are you sure the test drivers insurance is not the liable party for test drives?

Just type “Motor Traders Insurance “ on your Google search , you will see Nigerian insurance companies who sell it.

Of course , before you allow a buyer to test drive ur car as a car dealer u should ask for their license . It will be foolishness for a dealer to give a car that’s not yet sold to someone who is not licensed to drive na

GloriousGbola:
What clinical confirmation?

This is like all those medical condition politicians suddenly manifest when facing trial.

A guy was arrested in an attempted theft, vehiclar homicide and the police let the person go after a so called revelation that the man had a mental condition?

If that is the case the guy should have been sent straight to an asylum. You cannot pull the mentally unstable claim for grand theft and property damage and homicide and then go back home. Well at least not in a society with backward crooked cops.

So you think the relatives claimed he was mad and State CID just released him based on their unverified claim?

Even the car dealer while speaking with Punch said police investigations confirmed his psychiatric condition.

Was it not a day or two ago we were all wondering why the guy behaved like that and even suggested maybe he was on drugs because the whole crime deoesn't make sense?

GloriousGbola:
A google search shows there is a federal psychiatric hospital in yaba

Option b the family that recovered the guy should be sued. If they failed to take care of their ward then they should face the consequences of their actions. They allowed their son with mental issues to move to another state and become a danger to everyone

Baba calm down, Psychiatric hospitals dey do outpatient treatment too.

I know of someone whose adult daughter was treated at the Neuropsychatric Hospital Yaba and she was never admitted. Initially she was always taken to the hospital by her mum on her appointment days. As she was responding to treatment, it got to a point they told the mum to allow her come by herself without anybody coming with her. They just do a cab/uber for her to and fro. She got better and living a normal life now.

So it's possible the guy was an outpatient before he relapsed or stopped taking his meds.

GloriousGbola:
Nigerian police are a special breed. We literally caught a robber in a neighbours house at 2 am. The police let the guy go on some excuse or the other. As the guy was being bundled into the car everyone was already suspicious about the outcome.

Police declaring a person has 'psychiatric condition without actual diagnosis by a professional. And you wonder why jungle justice is so popular. Four people allegedly died

I can only assume the thief was not acting alone and was part of a syndicate who have now bailed him out.

They said the guy’s relatives claimed he was a psychiatric patient and the police investigations confirmed it to be true .

I’m guessing the guy’s relatives brought documents along with them and maybe police called the psychiatric hospital confirm it to be true .

It’s just like someone claiming their relative is a patient at the neuropsychiatric hospital Yaba with evidence and the police puts a call through to the CMD to confirm same . At that point they have no choice but to release him .

It was state CID that released him , so I believe they would’ve consulted their legal unit before releasing him

izzou:
Releasing him is crazzzzy, but the car dealer ought to know that he would bear the losses.

The greatest punishment he can receive is a prison sentence.

Police station is not a psychiatric home na , police have no choice but to release him.

If the police try to charge him , it will be exercise in futility . His people will get lawyer who will provide his card at psychiatric hospital and other documents confirming he’s actually a psycho . The court will throw the case out and the man would’ve wasted more money in mobilizing police and all .

As unfair as it may sound , the man should just count his losses and move on

raumdeuter:
If you arrest a man like that and finds out he has nothing and no means of paying back. Whats the worst you can do to him?

In Nigeria the police fit even they ask you who lost money for more money to help prosecute your case.

Its a terrible thing for the car dealer. Its almost like your drunk personal driver bashing your Gwagon, or an aboki Okada rider crashing into your luxury car he is too poor to pay for anything. If you too manhandle am the thing fit turn on your head

I guess this is where your conversation about insurance the other day becomes important

I hope the car dealer has good insurance even though they will try to deny the claim say they are not covering for the test drive time since it should be the test drivers insurance covering for that

There’s actually an insurance policy specifically designed to cover motor traders . The insurance policy will cover the vehicle while it’s in the car lot as well as when customers take it out for test drive .

The issue is Nigerians don’t really see insurance as something they will need until they suffer a loss they never imagine was possible .

As regards the police releasing the guy , this is the first time I will see police following the law ; even though the outcome no favor the complainant . Normally u can’t really charge someone who has been clinically confirmed to be mentally unstable , It’s just the way a contract entered into with a mad man is not binding under the law

The VGC car dealer claims Nigerian Police have released the suspected thief on the premise that the guy has psychiatric condition .

As a result of that , he is to bear the cost of all damages caused by the psycho customer

According to Edmund, the case was initially reported at the Ajah Police Division before being transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti, Yaba, where two women who identified themselves as the suspect’s mother and sister visited him.

He said the women claimed to be from Agbor, Delta State, adding that he became concerned about recovering his expenses after learning that the suspect had been released on bail.

Edmund alleged that he was pressured to withdraw the case after investigators established that the suspect had a psychiatric condition.

“I am already suspecting foul play in the police dealings because I was hurried to close the case when the man was confirmed to be a psychiatric patient. Just yesterday evening, he had been released on bail.

“For somebody who caused me such heavy damage, how am I going to bear these losses alone, knowing that the culprit has been released? Somebody attempted to steal a car from my outlet. It is sad,” he said.

The dealer appealed for assistance in recovering from the financial losses, saying preliminary estimates put the cost of repairing the damaged Toyota Tundra at about N40m

When police catch u with weed, they will extort u and let u go afterwards.

afrodoc2:
Yeah, that substance abuse thing seems to have gotten out of hand. I remember when i was a kid only the baddest of the baddest knew what weed smelled like and most people had never even seen it and that was the worst drug in regular circulation.

When I was a kid, people who smoke weed hide it from friends and family. People go as far away from home as possible to smoke weed.

Some go to far away football fields to smoke weed . Nowadays small small boys go dey smoke for front of their house and people just move on like it's nothing. People will do party close to your house and by 6pm while the sky is still clear, boy go don dey kpo within residential areas.

I just pity the impressionable youngings on social media joining cult because of the “doings” and aesthetics they see them posting about their philanthropic moves .

While they are busy posting how they renovate roundabouts on social media ,people who belong to the same confra are getting unalived at Lekki-Epe expressway in Lagos , North bank in Benue state and other flashpoints spread across the country .

The best decision you can take as a Nigerian youth is never to join confra while in school or out of school .

I got this same stat from a guy who is a CEO of a Nigerian company. Every girl is going for those 1%. Last last na aspiration, the reality is that majority will end up marrying for the bulk of men available

I guess everyone is allowed to dream, but the reality is only few dreams come true.

There are quite a handful of ladies I know personally who are in their early to mid 30s actively looking to settle down. The problem is most of the men that have been coming their way have one or more "comma" that makes them unsuitable for marriage. The guy may have a decent job with a roof over his head, but turn out to be AS genotype while the lady is also AS. There are those who are unsuitable for marriage due to religious differences, tribal differences, etc.

Imagine having all of those factors stacked against you, only to see a decent guy who tries to plan ur future with u and u call him stingy because he's not spendthrift .

You are in the Nigerian labor market, What percentage of single eligible(non yahoo boys) men make over #1m a month in income probably less than 20%?

You know some women dey like the bragging to their peers my BF bought this for me, by bf did that for me, Maybe 2 BF are doing this but 100 girls will be jealous and looking at that 2

I said Percentages and Probabilities are the most important topics in Maths and Life. 2 out of 20 SIngle men can afford iPhone with their honest wages, that is 10%(PERCENTAGES) of the population, Yet 90% of females want those 10% of guys. What is the PROBABILITY that the 10% will chose you out of the 90%

According to StatiSense, only 2.4% of Nigerians earn N200k & above monthly. That 2.4% comprises of men and women o, married & single.

It's safe to say an average single lady from a struggling background hoping to get married to a legit guy will marry from that pool except she's extremely lucky or she decides to go the other way by marrying Yahoo boy, drug mule, NURTW,etc

How they don't see this reality dey always Muse me.

Footedness of Antoine Semenyo
Antoine Semenyo is genuinely two-footed, which means he is equally skilled at using both his left and right foot. This unique ability allows him to be versatile in his playing style, making him effective on either wing.

Reading this, one would think they are describing Santi Carzola or Ousman Dembele who are actually two footed fotballers that are highly skilled using both right and left foot.

Though it is the same company that produces both Eva and Fanta in Nigeria (NBC), I don't think the error is from them. In fact, I don't think it is an error because Eva and Fanta definitely have different production lines . There's no way the cap of Eva water will find its way to the Fanta production line.

The drink is probably a fake that was packed and mixed with original fanta. I think that was all those distributors do now, they mix counterfeit with originals. I mentioned here how I went to a big popular supermarket to get Hennessy for my baby's naming ceremony. We kept scanning with Hennessy reveal App and observed that before we confirm one bottle of original Hennessy, we fit don scan 6 to 8 that are clearly fake.

To my shock, all the dozens upon dozens of Henny we scanned that turned out to be fake, they didn't remove them from the store, they still kept it as stock and I know they will surely sell it to unsuspecting customers because they also didn't know it was fake when they were supplied by distributors. So, they don't want to take a loss.
