izzou: [color=royalblue]Bode George is charging Tinubu to tackle insecurity, and he addressed journalists in his home in Lagos.
I thought this man said if Tinubu wins, he will relocate from Nigeria kpata kpata?[/color] You once said that you would leave Nigeria and renounce your citizenship if Tinubu emerged as president. Now that he has been declared as the winner of the election, will you still renounce your citizenship and leave Nigeria?:
That is still on my plan. If I decide on what to do, I wish you well. I’m not looking for a job, I have everything I want and how much can I eat? I also have my children and they are no longer kids. They are all mature so what am I looking for? My wife is there. She will take good care of me. I will stay in Nigeria depending on the outcome of this because I know there might be a hell of a problem.
Which country do you plan on relocating to?
You know I am a military lord so I can go anywhere in any part of the world and I will be looking at you, people. I have even decided that having put 25 years each in the military and politics which is 50 years of my life in the public domain, I need rest so whatever I see at the end of this thing. I’m retiring from partisan politics and will be enjoying the rest of my life. https://punchng.com/my-plan-to-leave-nigeria-after-tinubus-victory-on-course-bode-george/ |

I am tempted to believe that the number of guns in the hands of bandits, herdsmen, kidnappers and other criminals in this country far exceeds those in the hands of our security forces. I mean how do they keep going around killing people every now and then? |

afrodoc2: He was the first person I heard them refer to as strong man.
They always start with “strongman of Ibadan politics”. 😄 Yeah, His strongman was both in violence and grassroots. He was known to be philantropic so he has the backing of the common man. If una come say his grassroots base is not enough for u, he will use violence by activating his boys to scatter everywhere. My dad used to tell us stories about how strong the man was in local politics |

DissTroy: Generally, people from Southern states tend to hold governments at the three levels accountable than their Northern counterparts.
Historically, there was a time when a ferocious critic of the state government being, for example, in Lagos under Tinubu, Akwa Ibom in Akpabio's first tenure, Abia under OUK, Enugu under Nnamani, and Ogun under OGD was relatively dangerous, but I think it's abated. Actually, it has.
Southern states went through the phase Reccy is mentioning in terms of repercussions for vehement state government criticism. The relative ease and freedom to criticize these Southern state governments now was earned through tears and blood. I think like Reccy later added, religious dogma and maybe culture plays an important role in the way the north seems receptive of bad governance and not challenging the status quo when it comes to politics/leadership. In the south u have irreligious people and liberally religious people in abundance. The irreligious people are not subservient to any religious dogma and will express their mind when they feel any leader is messing up. The liberals also raise eyebrows when their religion asks them to follow and obey the leaders sheepishly. And yes the south also have people who are seriously religious, but they are diluted by the aforementioned 2 groups which kinda give things a balance. On the other hand, the north has mostly religious people who belong to the Christian and Muslim faith. Some part of each religion encourages u to obey and follow the leader. The Christian faith encourages u to pray for ur leaders (Some of the leaders know this and they milk it well; they will keep soliciting the people's prayer while they deliberately continue to misgovern) |

GloriousGbola: Whatever mining is going on is not large scale /industrial /organized. If it was we would not be having no name unidentified companies, Unnamed malian miners.
To date no one has been interviewed on TV. No one has even been arrested for improper storage of dynamite.
To this day no one has even said exactly what minerals are being exploited.
This is also why I believe there was not that much scrutiny to begin with. Whatever mining going on was lowercase, clandestine, 'miner and brothers', not 'miner plc'. The Miner's name is Sawane Youssouf and he has come out to allege everything Seyi Makinde has been saying are lies. He has come out to confirm he is a miner operating in Oyo state with an approval from Federal government of Nigeria. The onus is now on Seyi Makinde to disclose the information he has as the CSO of Oyo state that suggests the miner was operating illegally in the state, that the building now referred as ground zero belongs to the miner and that the miner stored explosives in that residential premises against the laws of the state and federal republic of Nigeria. Na Seyi Makinde get explanations to do ; not the other way round. |

GloriousGbola: Local govt officials were probably collecting money from him giving the illusion of legality. You don't know this for a fact. The man says he is operating a legal business ; mining is regulated by FG not LG or state government. Let the state government bring evidence that suggests the man was operating a mine in the state without FG's approval. If u remember Makinde's security adviser's( Owoseni) interview on Channels TV he mentioned that they have been engaging FG on the mining issue in the state since the Buhari era. He said each time they engage the miners they always show evidence of approval from FG. Now this Malian is corroborating same story that he has FG's approval. The responsibility is now on Oyo State government to investigate whether indeed the approval this man claims he has is from the federal ministry of mines and solid minerals. Also the man has denied ownership or any link of the building now referred to as ground zero. The onus is on Oyo State government tó bring whatever evidence they have that suggests the man owns or operates the building. At least they are in control of the state ministry of housing and physical planning na. This should not be a case of " If u can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshiit " on the part of the Oyo State government |

Youssouf, in a statement he signed, titled, ‘Bodija Explosion: My Own Side of the Story,’ in Ibadan, the state capital, said though the incident was unfortunate, his activities as a miner were legal.
He said, “I felt the need to, once again, state my own side of the story to clear the minds of the public about my alleged involvement in the sad occurrence.
“Insinuations are rife that I am the owner of the Ground Zero building where the explosives that led to the explosion were stockpiled and warehoused, prior to the incident.
“I[b]t is against the above that I categorically state and declare here again now that I am not the owner of the building and explosives in question. While it is true that l am into mining in Oyo State, all my activities are legal, in accordance with the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution.”[/b]
Youssouf added that he also didn’t have “anything to do with the explosives that led to the huge loss of human lives and the collateral destruction of property at the scene of the incident.”
The statement added, “I am using this medium to appeal to the state government, security agencies and other appropriate authorities to beam their searchlight further to reveal the identity of the real owners of the building and the explosives that led to the explosion of January, 16.”
He, therefore, promised to make himself available whenever he is needed to assist security agencies in the course of further investigation into the sad incident. https://www.nairaland.com/7987502/ibadan-explosion-malian-miner-deniesHmmmm....So the alleged foreigner being blamed for the Ibadan explosion has come out to deny ownership of the building according to Seyi Makinde's story and also claimed his minibg activities in Oyo State are legal. The guy is practically calling Seyi Makinde a liar based on his story. Where do we go from here? |

mostob: I think White was angry because Zinchenko breached the offside line. BTW, I don't like how Awoniyi just brushed off our Roll Royce effortlessly. There was coming together of Saliba and Gabriel after the ball was passed to Awoniyi's path, that was what made it seem like Awoniyi brushed off Saliba. When those kind scramble happens it leads to confusion at the backline. Zinchenko was the major culprit for that goal; he just lost himself at a crucial moment. |

iamoyindamola: With yesterday's performance we can't get a draw on Sunday we should be improving from last year not otherwise It's annoying and frustrating the way zinchenko keep making us concede stupid goals and arteta doesn't have solution to this Which brings me to why we loan out tear knee because what I thought is zinny replace xhaka in midfield that's position in Ukraine sef
ESR was everywhere yesterday balling but immediately Kai entered he faded like a leprosy witch fart
Why didn't we get saka backup in the transfer because yesterday was the lowest of the low forget his goal , he couldn't beat his man one on one Oh I remember Kai was 3 in 1
The earlier we realised Kai is the biggest of all flop the better considering his transfer fee and his salaries This werey doesn't fit in our play , no bite no spark Even if he swallow c4, ammonia plus grenade he won't still blow
All what I wrote all boil down to the stupid transfer move of Kai to the team because he's the one that replaced xhaka where's zinny could do that and we get another lb and saka replacement with the 65m we blew to Chelsea This transfer might be the end of arteta Tear Knee has injury issues, in fact he's currently injured where he is. If he had stayed with us sef, he will still be out injured. I think the problem was not replacing him with a natural LB instead of forcing the slow Kiwior to play makeshift LB |

mostob: “That’s pushing each other and being not happy conceding and I have to encourage that and promote it in the right way and a respectful way. Sometimes after the game it’s emotional and heated but I love that the players are pushing each other and demanding excellence.” - Arteta on the altercation between White and Zinchenko. It can be frustrating for teammates watching Zinchenko over and over again getting caught up in incidents leading to opponent's goals. The moment Zinchenko missed that ball yesterday , I knew it was a goal already. |
