Naso one unfortunate soul they refer to me as werey, Some assholes will just open mouth like they are relating with their mates

People who are nuisance will always be nuisance no matter how they try to hide that. I always avoid them except the fairly known ones who are foolish enough to mention me and chat shiiit. The less known ones I just ignore them completely.

That ediot that refer to u as weyrey has several monikers and has always spammed my mention from the food thread wayback. I just ignore his silly asss most times and he fizzles away like fart

From what I know about the case, the case is actually in a federal court in Abuja.

All these would've been resolved if she had just agreed with the resolution they made in front of her lawyer in the first place and the issued would've died down.

Posting the apology letter on Facebook is just to give back the company the credibility that she throws to the mud when she said the product is killing people.

Nigeria is just a funny place because the police is constitutionally back to make arrest and detain people. Section 373 of the criminal code treats defamation as a criminal offense if the matter is likely to injure the reputation of any person by exposing the person to hatred, contempt or ridicule, or likely to damage any person in his or her profession or trade by injury to his reputation.

The above clearly gives the police the power to arrest and detain her and then charge her to court. But then our judiciary are used to grant useless orders. Imagine a court of law granting an order that's stoppin the police from carrying out arrest of a suspect in a criminal offense who jumped bail? Its the same way that PH high court stopped EFCC from ever arresting or prosecuting Peter Odili.

The moment you jump bail, it's a different matter entirely. The fact of the case has been relegated to start talking about illegal detention from police and all that.

This matter would've been resolved since last year September but then 6 months later, shes still running kitikiti while pursuing a case in a federal court while those edging her own are in their house using her to chase clout online.

Did the Nigerian law say if a person jumps bail the police can detain u illegally ? If the police would not obey a court order, then what law are they relying on to claim they are maintaining "law" and order?

When u say jump bail what do u mean? Did the case come up in court and the lady refused to appear at the hearing?


Court pronouncements in themselves are laws. Why is nobody hounding Peter Odili u mentioned after a court order barred the security agencies from arresting or prosecuting him?

The thing is in Nigeria we let emotions take the better of us and we tend to argue in favour of what side of the divide that favors us.

The man has a case of criminal defamation he wants the police to pursue on his behalf . Fine! The offence is bailable; Fine! Let the man and his company mount pressure on the police to accelerate the court to hear the case while the lady goes to the hearing from her home anytime the case comes up.

The police don't have powers to just lock someone up indefinitely when a judge has barred them from doing so. It is simply illegal. But I understand this is Nigeria tho.

U are right the lady had a chance to let the things go the Nigerian way by apologizing, but since she declined to that offer it doesn't necessarily mean she should now be detained illegally na.

The truth is that, this matter would've been settled if Iniebong wasn't involved in the matter. The same letter of apology that the man talked on in that video is the same one that Iniebong said Chioma wrote under duress.

Social media is a really funny place, where so called anti oppressor crusaders will rather let a simple matter that would be resolved easily turn into a charade for clout sake.

While Chioma had the right to criticize the company, defamation is a crime and the company has the right to sue and be sued. What is currently happening to the company online is bullying which is why I think the man want to prosecute the case at all cost.

You cannot defame a company and say the company has to right to defend itself.

At the end of the day, whatever happens to the case, Chioma will face it alone and those edging her on and using her for clout will not be there with her.

See ehn, Nigeria is a funny place and the more u look the less u see .

I'm not a fan of defaming a business , but if u feel ur business is being defamed u should go through the legal route of seeking redress in court .

From what I've observed thus far, Chioma made a post that the man found to be defamatory to his business brand and he wrote a petition for the police to prosecute her for criminal defamation ( I may be wrong , but this is what I think happened)

Now from that man's video I watched in which he claimed he stepped in to have things between Chioma and the erisco man resolved out of court, it appears the erisco man agreed with that and wanted Chioma to write an apology so he can tell police to withdraw the case.

Obviously Chioma left the police detention and Effiong being a human rights lawyer advised her not to abide by the police station agreement because the initial detention was illegal and even the agreement they had was illegal cos she was under duress.

Effiong proceeded to obtain a court order to bar the police from further arresting Chioma on the same issue in November 2023 but Nigerian police acting true to character refused to obey that court order.

All of these boils down to lawlessness that is prevalent in Nigeria . Even people who stole billions of naira in this country go from their home to go for hearing . As we speak Fayose has a 6.9 billion case against him by EFCC for stealing public funds that should've been put to public use and he's going about his day to day normal life.

If the Nigerian police has a criminal case against the Chioma lady for defaming Erisco foods, they should prosecute her while she goes to court from her home . The company has a right to test their case in court . Since the man has said he will rather die than let her go , then let him do things the right way instead of Nigerian police acting as tho they have more power than a law court

He misses his regular customers 😂

It pains them to the marrow that they can't walk in here this morning and be gloating at how we lost scandalously to city on their home front.

If e easy, make dem tell their team to collect 4 pints out of possible 6 from a city coached by Pep.

Anybody that wants to cry can as well find crying partners of like minds, donate ur tears to the nearest farming settlement to boost food production in Nigeria at this trying times

Jodera:
All what you said here is facts!! 100%

People no realise say Pep Mean us ystdy.
They were ready to bypass our press while suppressing us with their own press.
The press and counter press on us was too much that by 7-10min we were still trying to find our feet, if we'd played our game without the wingers helping the defence, we for too collect.
Maybe they thought we're playing midtable teams who aren't press resistance that we can press to submission

Arteta read that pep game well and neutralised his plan. Na just poor quality Infront of goal kill us

One can decide to be pessimistic and call it bus parking , but an optimist will see it as a top coach having all the necessary answer to the tactics of another top coach .

Theflint1:
They're trying to get at his source for the info he's releasing. A lawsuit gives them an excuse to arrest him, normal naija way, and under pressure they'd hopefully force his source out.

I want to believe the guy is presently not in Nigeria . I believe that's the only way they've not gotten him this far.

In Nigeria criminals are close to the seat of power and they use this closeness to their very own advantage

This na case of Alagidi vs Alaigboran.

Nigeria is a jungle and the strongest animals prey on the weakest . I watched that Facebook video posted up there and from the video I noticed the man explaining how he intervened to get Chioma released .

The man also truthfully stated he didn't know wassup with Chioma afterwards since she didn't answer his calls neither did she post any apology as agreed at the police station.

From all indications it's obvious the Chioma lady also sought legal advice after the September 2023 incident which made her not want to honor whatever agreement she had with Erisco and the police under duress .

Below is her lawyer claiming she actually got a court order barring the police from arresting her .

On Tuesday, Inibehe Effiong, Okoli’s lawyer, in a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter) said some police officers invaded Okoli’s house at about 7 am and attempted to re-arrest her.

He said this was in disregard to a court ruling barring them from doing so.

Effiong attached copies of a subsisting order of the federal high court in Lagos dated November 8, 2023 wherein the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) and the Nigerian police were barred from arresting or detaining Okoli while her case with Erisco Foods Ltd. is ongoing.

Armed policemen are still laying siege on the private residence of Chioma Edoka Okoli more than seven hours after they invaded her home,” the post reads.

“They’ve called for reinforcement and are waiting for orders from the IGP to break into her home at Sangotedo where she is living with her baby and re-arrest.

“They have not produced any court order authorizing them to re-arrest Chioma. This is the result of years of lawlessness and impunity in the country.”

Effiong added that the head of the police team said he could not obey a court order when the IGP had given him a contrary directive.

POLICE VACATE OKOLI’S HOME

In an updated post, the lawyer said after over ten hours of siege, the officers eventually vacated Okoli’s home.

He said attempts to re-arrest his client, despite the subsisting restraining order “is a sad reminder of the entrenched culture of lawlessness and impunity in the Nigeria Police Force”.

“The fact that this brazen illegality is happening under the direction of the newly appointed Inspector General of Police who had promised to redeem the image of the police gives credence to the adage that old habits die hard,” he added.

“While deprecating the actions of the police, we want to place on record that we are not perturbed by whatever charges the IGP may have filed against Chioma.

“Their charges cannot scare us because we are confident that Chioma is on the right side of the law. We are ready to meet and confront them in court.

If not that naija is a jungle , why will the police disregard a valid court order and then claim they are maintaining law and order ?

Erisco should bury Chioma under the jail. Harming a man's business for internet clout. SMH

Ta what cost to his business ?

So many people didn't even know any Chioma did any product review till the whole case of illegal detention started making the headline .

I just feel the man gave her unnecessary publicity which is hurting his business negatively now.

Hopefully they all find a way to sort themselves sha . All these talks of burying anybody won't do his own business any good . His competitors whom he thought were sponsoring Chioma initially will now milk this negative PR and make sure be spends serious money trying to clear his name.

In business no be everything be gragra

Arteta played for a draw
Simple
Even though both teams were cautious

I don't think he played for a draw, instead he played not to lose . He knew losing will be devastating and the only way to lose in that match is to try and open up to match city man to man.

Pep literally packed midfield with Rodri, Kovacic and De Bruyne with Foden and Bernado on the wings waiting to let fly and have a go at our Fullbacks. It was only normal for our own Wingers to always drop deep to help our full backs and frustrate Pep's game plan

That game was a tactical masterpiece . More like a chess game. If u noticed that Pep quickly observed he was getting beat at his own game , he had to bring in Doku and Graelish to further explore the wings since the midfield was getting choked ; Arteta had to introduce Tomiyasu for Kiwior who was getting bested and Trossard to stretch the city wings as well.

Arteta knew what he was doing and Pep knew what he was doing as well. Funny enough , out of the 3 teams competing for the leagues, Arsenal amassed the most point when they all faced each other

Bruh

Where I used to live before , the surest plug for foreign rice and frozen foods in that area is the wife of a customs officer .

If u wan do 15 weddings in one weekend u can get frozen chicken, turkey , fish and gizzard that will be enough to serve all guests from that woman's shop. Same with rice .

It's an open secret that customs officers are the biggest beneficiaries of smuggling in this country . Dem dey divert seized goods like mad.

What I don't understand is why IBD Dende's lawyers are threatening this guy with lawsuit. Almost everyone knows Dende is a smuggler and with his own mouth in the video he was simply fighting for his right to smuggle goods simply cos he felt customs bosses too smuggle goods. So what's he planning to sue the guy for ? 😂

Amigoss:
Dispute something from a reputable hospital? Dem go drag and cancel am like naira Marley but the latest of this is,she says no more DNA even if court order shows...

Let the man get court order first and let's see if she will risk prosecution for disobeying a court order.

She has a lawyer and Mohbad's father also has a lawyer; there's no need for any media trial like illiterates .

At this point we know both parties are fighting for inherits what. Let the court be the umpire , let the court order a DNA test , dictate where it will be conducted and the result sent to the judge who will read it in court.

Amigoss:
If dem really do am,tears go full basket....see as that mobad wife no wan gree do am

Mohbad wife is simply telling Mohbad's father to get a court order that will compel her to take DNA.

If Mohbad father wants DNA, let him get get court order that will specify the hospital where the DNA will be conducted so that the man will not later come back to dispute the result of the DNA .

That man I'm seeing will contest any DNA result the wife does independently

He said after removing debt obligation from the FAAC shared, the rest is not enough to pay salary.

You are left to wonder where the IGR of the state is.

I agree , but why Elrufai and sons sef no counter am with facts instead of abusing him ? 🤷🏼‍♂️

They owe the people factual explanation .

For the remainder of the season
It should be partey and rice
Jorghinho have tried
We got into the game with partey

I will trust Arteta to use whoever he decides between Jorginho or Partey depending on who our opponent is and the pattern we want to play .

afrodoc2:
Oh ok. It is either he is trying to tarnish El Rufai's image for some ulterior political motive OR he is unhappy with the reduction in his disposable income i.e after paying salaries with the IGR and rest of the FAAC allocation he might not have enough for his own lambastic projects.

All these people deserve to be locked up. Each side just gives us different shades of lies.

This is what it is looking like at this point until further evidences surfaces because if he collect handover note on May 29; he saw those debt figures and didn't complain one can ask why is he now organizing town hall meeting to announce same thing at this point in time ?

And that Elrufai's scallywag son wey supposed just respond with fact dey talk about sleeping in Abuja hotels and the governor appointing gazillion aides as if his own father was a saint in that regard .

monerozi5590:
Bashir El Rufai likes fight. He likes fighting his father's enemies. En d buy en father fight.

He obviously picked after his father sha

afrodoc2:
This might be what happens when most of the debt is in dollars and most of the IGR is in naira. Exhange rate will suck it dry.

Yeah I get, but going by what the governor read out on Saturday he's saying they have deducted the loan repayment from the FAAC allocation from source . Which should mean whatever remains from the FAAC allocation and the IGR should be able to cater for the state's need in naira if indeed the increased IGR being peddled by El-Rufai's administration is real.

Somehow it feels one of the two parties is giving half information for political reasons best know to them

Ibime:
Fight seems to be between Sani and Rufais son.

Rufai confirmed all the numbers Sani put forward before he left, so there is no argument about what he left.

He has restricted Sani to follow his precommitments and service his loans. There is enough for that, but not enough for Sani to drive his own agenda without harming salaries and pensions. Sani wants his own projects to chop from I guess

Anyone interested about KD commitments and debt to revenue ratios can download their report. Kaduna does not run secretive Government

https://finance.kdsg.gov.ng/kaduna-state-debt-sustainability-analysis-dsa-and-debt-management-strategydms-report-november-2023/

I guess this is the major issue . Everybody want to run their own show , most people who become governor in Nigeria always do this.

They want to bring in their own contractors , want to grease the palms of their allies and want to make as much illegal kickbacks from contracts for their pension all from the state's treasury .

It's not like El-Rufai didn't do the same cos if we go by the yeye COVID-19 story he sold for those loans, we all know he also helped himself from the state purse

monerozi5590:
He talked about FAAC alone for reasons best known to him but IGR is there to cover for any fall.

Kaduna State cannot owe salaries. Is not just possible at all.

If you read everything, he said despite this challenges, look at what I have done and about to do bla bla bla. Where en get money to do all those things?

If that's the case , why didn't El-Rufai's son just state it in his response to Uba Sani that his father has already increased the state's IGR and that's what the governor should be grateful for instead of whining about FAAC allocation not being enough to sort salaries ?

I thought that boy claim to be educated . Why does he choose the path of insult when there's actually fact on ground to counter the governor's claims ?

Ibime:
Maybe he is creating space to chop for future.

That said, El-Rufai excuse of borrowing for the Kaduna economy to spend its way out of COVID is lame. Stimulating consumption through Keynesian initiatives is not really in the hands of State Governors, and is more of a National initiative. A state can't really spend its way out of a morose National situation.

So he has responded ? I'm yet to see his response , please share link

Ibime:
You are right. Kaduna IGR is about N80bln per year, more than enough to cover salaries etc.


Why the mudslinging between Sani and ElRufai?

This is the million dollar question.

monerozi5590:
Uba Sani is complaining about the exchange rate in paying debt.

If you check what he said yesterday, they deducted his FAAC to service debt. He only received the net allocation.

Kaduna State is paying salary. Kaduna State is not owing her workers one kobo.

Nobody arguing what Uba Sani said cos it's out in the open. Below is what he said

Kaduna State governor, Uba Sani, has raised the alarm that his administration inherited a huge debt burden of $587 million, N85 billion, and 115 contractual liabilities from the previous administration, making it difficult for him to pay workers’ salaries now.

He, however, said that despite the humongous debt burden on the State government, he was yet to borrow a single kobo in the last nine months of his administration.

The governor, who stated this in Kaduna on Saturday while addressing a Town Hall Meeting, added that the huge debt burden was eating deep into the State’s monthly Federal Allocation of fund, hence the state was finding it difficult to pay monthly salaries.

Governor Sani lamented that due to the rise in the exchange rate, Kaduna State is now paying back almost triple of what was borrowed by the previous administration of former governor Nasir El-Rufai.

He explained that N7billion out of the N10billion Federal Allocation due to the State in the month of March was deducted to service the debt.

The governor further lamented that the state was left with N3billion, an amount which is not enough to pay salaries, as the state’s monthly salary bill stands at N5.2billion.

What Theflint1 and other people like myself are concerned about is what the governor didn't say. He didn't talk about the IGR. Yes we undertand there's exchnage fluctuatuons which is affecting the amount they are using to service the debt from FAAC allocation.

But what happened to the IGR generated locally ? Like the IGR they generate in real time at the current value of the naira ? He kept mum about that but boldly telling who cares to listen that anytime soon salary might stop for civil servants .

The fact that u got March salary as a civil servant does not mean u will get April's. The way the governor came out to announce this unprovoked shows there's shege ahead. Except he just feels like spreading panic to u guys sha

monerozi5590:
Who tell you sai IGR dry up. Even before the coming of El Rufai, Kaduna State is up there in terms of revenue generated per state.

There's a reason why El Rufai is called a digital governor. El Rufai digitised some things in Kaduna State like collection of tax and all. El Rufai reform tax collection in Kaduna State. The E- payment platform helps to block leakages in revenue collection. This even boost Kaduna IGR to a new level.

El Rufai met debt too, both external and domestic debt when he came in as governor. He left with debt too and some savings in the state treasury.

No one can deny the work of El Rufai in Kaduna State, not even his enemies.

U are missing his point. He's not claiming IGR dried up; instead he's asking what happened that Uba Sani suddenly cannot pay salaries with increased FAAC allocation and the same level of IGR El-Rufai left behind 9-10 months ago?

Yes El-Rufai was also servicing debt and all; but how come Uba Sani is saying Debt servicing alone has swallowed all the state's potential income? What was El-Rufai doing?

Kimbeast:
What a funny post. Dropping my observation on a match I watched has turned to weeping because it involves your team? You better stop going to other clubs thread if people dropping their observation pains you that much. I am in my club thread not yours.

You have even admitted Arteta changed his approach and set up from the Arsenal we have seen over the last two seasons for today game which was what I said. He didn't trust his team to deliver with their usual set up so decided to go ultra defensive.

The joke is on u to think Arteta started playing Pep 2 seasons ago.

Somebody that whipped Pep on the way to win 2020 FA cup against ur team in the final is who u think should play to the whims of an unknown kimbeast just to prove he's a king Kong against a man he knows how intelligent he is tactically?

Just dey play!

Kimbeast:
What does a match from Arteta first or 2nd season has do do with anything? How is that related to the discussion.

So it's no longer cowardice but the number of Eason he's spent as coach Abi ? We are getting somewhere .

Arteta over the years has deployed different strategies to get the better of Pep but he's not been succesful thus far. Today he went back to the drawing board and he's able to hold Pep's free scoring team to a stalemate but u are here weeping on his behalf.

We will gladly take his cowardice that's produce 4 out of possible 6 points for us this season . Stop crying more than the bereaved. If e easy , do am!
