He was responding to those who claim his activities in Rivers State (which is mostly during the weekends) has left him distracted hence the loopholes in the security architecture of the FCT...

He is like; if you claim my travelling to Rivers State a distraction, why not ask the security agents why they slack when I'm not around (weekends) since you claim I'm distracted by the politics of Rivers State...

Yeah, I later got that from afrodoc's explanation. But still I don't think that's what he should be saying at that point; he should be discussing the measures he has put in place to make the talk of whether he is in Lagos , Abuja or Port Harcourt irrelevant.

liveLongNprospa:
Arewa seems to be angry about this relocation of CBN to lagos

This Nigeria ehn, no tribal group trusts the other.

CBN gave a reasonable reason for the relocation of departments being that the Abuja office is overpopulated and some of their staff from Abuja usually have to travel down to Lagos several times in the year at CBN's expense to carry out their job functions. Now they feel all those flight money, out of station expenses amount to waste of money so it makes more sense for such staff to kukuma be relocated and stationed in Lagos once and for all. The CBN office in Lagos is one massive architectural masterpiece which I'm sure is most likely being underutilized.

Normally the staff that are affected are not even complaining, na politicians dey read meaning to it and reading political undertone to it.

Dem beat Ivory Coast 4-0 dem off light 😂

Alhaji popi ur neighbors dey quick vex o

My question is why do these people enjoy inflicting pain on others ? Why are they so selfish that they don’t care if other people’s means of livelihood is in ruins provided their cows are fed ?

I think it’s about time these herders are treated as terrorists because what they are doing at this point amounts to economic terrorism .

afrodoc2:
It is not just the tone but the words he used and the context. He was defending his travelling home on weekends and trying to explain that it should not be the focus of attention since they kidnap Mon to Fri when he is around as well.

He then asked a rhetorical/sarcastic question, "so they don't kidnap Mon to Friday when i am around?
The problem was his intonation/stress was wrong and it ended up sounding like a statement instead of a rhetorical question.

I guess this then .

But even at that , his brashness always shine through . What will it take him to just say he has put all necessary measures in place to combat the kidnapping whether he’s in Abuja or Rivers over the weekend ?

His whole response gives an air of someone who lacks empathy and thinks it’s normal for people to get kidnapped

afrodoc2:
[b]

That is not actually what he was saying. He was being sarcastic there.

What he meant was that kidnapping happens on any day of the week, so him travelling to Rivers for the weekend should not be a big issue.

I was not getting the sarcasm in his tone at all.

PDPGuy:
Naija is not a real place 🤦🏾🤦🏾

Aswear !

Like kidnappers are taking his constituents hostage , killing their kids and Wike is more concerned about the timing of the kidnappings; reading nonsensical political undertones into it instead of proffering solutions

raumdeuter:
Roland17

CIV fans don dey para

As expected .

So with all the mouth Ghanaians have been making about Kudus on social media dem no even fit win one match in a group that has Mozambique and Cape Verde?

The next Ghana-Nigeria banter on social media will be tough

NinjaMetahuman:
ghana is already out.

They don't have the goal difference or point to stay.

Yeah, I just checked their table now . They done and out !

raumdeuter:
A country of 500k people

Dem no reach number of voters in Alimosho Local Government of Lagos state

NinjaMetahuman:
Lol this afcon has been so unpredictable.

Goal for Cape Verde.

No small team again.

Cape Verde wey go pack all their players from Europe

Na dem be ogbon sodik

I sha know say one of Ghana and Ivory will go home . Whoever it is , the journey no far.

Very stupid keeper; he gifted them corner that led to equalizing goal out of nothing

This Ghana keeper na MUMUdinho

Some people sabi play penalty sha

Wike don finally craz.e 🤦‍♂️. He’s asking why they only carry out kidnappings on weekends when he goes to Rivers to rest and not weekdays while he’s in Abuja

Leyqute:
The Argentina team looks more solid in midfield. If they decide to do counter, that Brazilian team go hear am.

The Brazil team can hurt them through the wings and their very potent attack . Cafu being defensively solid and Marcelo swinging in crosses will expose the yansh of someone like Otamendi at the back.

Leyqute:
Who wins?

Brazil certainly . They have at least 3 world best in that team while Argentina has just Messi .

Wetin that Brazil team use pass the Argentina team too much Abeg !

Roland17:
He misses way too many chances.

It’s so annoying

Osimehn is yet to show why he’s African best 🤦‍♂️

Ibime:
He better pass Chukwueze well well

The two of them no reach one kudus

How sinon dey always make this team sef ?

This Simon useless

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Are they losing?[/color]

Yea

Ibime:
I hope CIV win or draw. We need to top group to avoid stories that touch

If we don’t progress beyond second round irrespective of who our opponent is , they should jail all NFF officials , banish the players and deport the coach .

E be like say hand don dey meet Ivory Coast

See worldie this one score as own goal

These people dey knock us o

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Who will you even charge, when your penalty is 100k?

If i can spend 20 million on a burial, is it 100k that i cannot pay?

Looking at it sef, the law take style dey funny.
[/color]

Now u see what I'm saying that the law makes no sense. A law that is specific to church burials in a state that has Christians and traditional worshippers. The law that is supposed to take into cognizance the customs and traditions of the people yet placing restriction on some aspects of the traditions. It even fines the poor people it was supposed to protect.

Dem no reason the law well at all.

It looks like a trap the government of the day will be using to deal with anybody they are not in good terms with.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]The law made some sense.

Don't inconvenience people in the name of burials. I am very sure the overnight wake keep is functional. I attended one last year, and it ended by 9pm.

But i wanted Okpa to see the justice he was looking for; A paltry 100k

So if you are asking why Obi Cubana flouted the law, the penalty is enough reason for even ordinary me to flout sef[/color]

Even the writer stated that it appears nobody has been charged by the government yet simply because the law infringes on fundamental human rights entrenched in the constitution. So if the government decides to enforce it sef, they will most likely lose out when it gets to supreme court.

obainojazz:
You keep shouting Obi Cubana because you obviously have a problem with people doing well…. There are thousands of burial every year since that law was passed and no one follows the rule.
People are still doing as they seem fit because Nigeria is a lawless country….
The law doesn’t even limit how much you should spend…. Buy a casket of one million dollars if you like sef.
It just stops the bullshit of live music playing for days and disturbing the whole community, elders demanding some money, blocking main roads because of burial and so on.

I just read this paper on the Anambra Burial law. If anything the writer posited in the paper is true, then The law no really make sense. It's understandable that people will flout the law and pay the yeye fine as penalty
