Mumu what other solution than people like you in the north to preach peace and stop killing people in the name of infidels
Your kind didn't make lives stop taking it
How many of your kind have openly condemn the killings like you all did for gaza

If you can openly support death for blasphemy and encourage release of repentant terrorists you think you are doing us
Bloody pretender

Most of the crisis in the middle belt is even ethnic related than religion . If u see anybody that comes from Benue or Plateau state they will tell u it’s not even about Islam v Christianity .

If Amoto feels uncomfortable with people discussing the problem , then that is his problem

What data do we have to show this birth rate in the north compared to the south?

I guess it’s just the “eye-test “

afrodoc2:
You also have to consider that they give birth to far more children in the north.

Also the north is more than double the south in land area. For the north to look as crowded as the south it has to have to 2-3 times the population of the south. Population density is not population.

Yeah , I know they give birth more than southerners and they start giving birth a younger age . But we actually need a fair census to be sure of what we know once and for all.

vanitybutiwanti:
not necessarily Belletacians, wike did a lot of things for them, gave them land in old GRA port Harcourt, if you live in Rivers State, you should know the worth of land in that location, how much money can wike possibly give chief Ferdinand Alabrabra, fomer Chairman of standard bank and uba, a respected Kalabari chief yet he's always with wike in PH and Abuja. I think there's more to him than what is being peddled on social media, the men in that video are heavyweights .

Omo , the way dem dey take share that Rivers state money ehn. I pity the common men most especially the youth in that state . With the presence of so many multinationals in that state who pay huge taxes to the government and make billions yearly , most of the youth work as contract staff.

The politicians just eat fat from 13% oil derivatives , the state’s IGR and other windfalls while the common men just dey survive . There’s nothing that stops Rivers state from dragging with Lagos state in terms of development because Rivers is not even as densely populated as Lagos state and the money is there . Imagine make people wey contest election in 1991 still dey feed fat from the state purse in 2023 🤦‍♂️.

Wike really tried with all those infrastructures he put in place in his 8 years as governor , but that state can still make use of more and more developmental projects if some of those belleticians commot hand from the state purse .

iamoyindamola:
They have the largest land mass and I still think they are more populated
Maybe we have been exaggerating how plenty they are but they are more than the other 2 regions

U can’t be so sure about which region has more population except u carry out a fair census .

There are factors that suggest the north may not be as much as hey claim like the hot/cold weather condition A40 mentioned , the high rate of child mortality in the north , access to affordable healthcare ( there are some places in the north that or u to even see health center u will trek kilometers, imagine how easily people in those areas can die from minor health challenges ), etc.

If they allow a fair population census to be carried out, we will be really sure if indeed the north has more population than the entire south once and for all. But I’m afraid that may never happen .

A40:
I've always argued that this census and population thing Nigeria is running is a massive scam. I've been to Niger and as massive as Niger state is na borderline ghost town

Nigeria is the first country I've seen where there are more people in the hotter regions than the cooler regions.

Places like Chad and Niger in close proximity to the North similar in culture and with almost 5x the landmass have far fewer population. Makes no sense.

Na dem Tafawa Balewa start the nonsense at the inception of an independent Nigeria . A census was carried out in 1961 and the preliminary results showed the population of the South exceeds that of the North.

Tafawa Balewa’s NPC controlled FG rejected the result and scheduled a recount for 1963. Whether northerners started giving birth in hundreds and thousands between 1961 and 1963 nobody can tell; but somehow the North population suddenly shot over the roof and from that moment population census turned a useful political tool.

This is because if the initial figures were accepted , there would’ve been re-adjustment of federal constituencies which would’ve put more federal seats in the south as against the north.

Fkforyou:
@Hausa I’m honestly trying to see where you are coming from, but I can’t.

Like for real, you are getting carried away by our recent performances that you can’t see that we’ve come a long way.

Take this Liverpool match for instance, as far back as two seasons ago, we chop 4 goals from them.

Now we are going head to head with them, at Anfield.

Odegaard was compared to De Bruyne last season, Martinelli was a honorable mention for FA team of the season, Saka was close second to Halland for player of the year, last season we were top of the league in Christmas , this season we are still top of the league again around that time, which show’s consistency- growth, we are through to round of 16 in champions league for first timers after almost 7 years.
So, are we there yet? No.
Is there room for improvement? Yes, I agree with you.
But you are wrong for saying they aren’t growing.
Even in their games, I’m seeing some level of composure and maturity in them, even when things are difficult for them…I’m referring to Saka and Odegaard.

Even Martinelli , as much as we still have one
Reservations about his decision making in the final third , he has obviously grown from the player he was 2 years ago.

This is the same team that bought Pepe for 72 million and could not make champions league . Now we have a team of young players that growing and slugging it out with a much more expensive and star studded man city side.

Kudos to Arteta and every member of the team for ow far they’ve come jare .

Hausa:
You're getting carried away.

Getting carried away by facts abi ?

Omo.. We just dey south dey flex, people dey experience ethnic cleansing inside this same country and nothing dey happen

Na when u go North u go really understand how complex this country is and the kind of unimaginable things happening in some parts of the country.

When I was in NYSC camp, there was this guy from Borno in my room that would regale us with stories of heart wrenching havoc Boko Haram wreak in that state. He would even talk about some close shave he had with them. There was one he told us of how they pursued him for kilometers on bike in the bush while he was on his way from farm. He said they burn down villages, kill any adult male on sight, leave adult female as widows, forcefully recruit teenage boys and take teenage females as bride. He said his own village had to form vigilante and resisted them several times they've tried to overrun them. Imagine living in constant fear, imagine what it does to one's psyche.

In my PPA a guy from Plateau whom we later became friends told me little about some of these ethnic cleansing going on in Plateau. He told me that right from when he was a toddler there has always been cases of different indigenous people and Fulani's being at loggerheads. The Fulani's would always want to claim ownership of lands where they were accommodated as guests and the people will resist them leading to rounds and rounds of hostilities that always lead to death and reprisal attacks . He said they are used to government declaring dusk to dawn curfew when the crisis starts right from a young age. The way he told me " Dem dey kill us, we sef dey kill dem back well well" really shook me. Like u can tell he has been toughened by the amount of violence he has witnessed from his teenage years. I won't be surprised if today he keeps a certain part of his income to fund his people's local militia.

This country ehn, things dey happen o.

This is what the law says

Under the Public Order Act (Cap P42) Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004 the power to regulate public meetings, processions and rallies in any part of Nigeria was exclusively vested in the governors of the respective states of the Federation

Sanwo-Olu is the governor of Lagos state, Did he authorize the said June 12 protest?
The first duty of the governor is to maintain law and order in the state and resist anything that threatens law and order

Thats why there is always a difference in activism and governance. Activists are not accountable to anyone, Governors are accountable to the citizens of the state to protect lives and properties

You mentioned US as the model democracy, I gave you examples of what applies in this US now it has become shalaye. Abi US sef don turn jungle?

Lmao .

We are talking of case law ; something has been tested and pronounced by a judge I are talking of a law any nobody can interprete to suit themselves ?

It is well with u and ur defence for impunity .

Public order act kor , private order decree ni. Maybe u don’t know the constitution supercedes any act or law at every point in time .

raumdeuter:
How can the police ensure the protest is not hijacked when they are not informed or told the protesters they have adequate personnel to man the protest ground? There is a reason why in the democracy you reference, they get permits before protests

In that same location there was a serious protest a fee months earlier which led to bloodshed, so which govt will repeat the same error again

I see you mentioned US as an example in your earlier post, below is an example of what happened in US regarding protests recently

I just quoted an appeal court judgement which actually law as of today since there’s no judgment from a court of higher jurisdiction overruling it. U don’t need to obtain any permission from anyone to organize a protest in Nigeria .

The position of Sanwoolu and the commissioner of police in Lagos as at the time of the June 12 protest is illegal in the face of the law .

Simple !

Every other thing is just shalaye that sells in a jungle like Nigeria .

Hausa:
When I mentioned Saka, Martinelli and Odegaard, my point was that at the end of the day, where can they genuinely take us?
By take us, I'm sure you understand where I'm going.
The only reason we got close to anything last season was because Gabriel Jesus played a major role. Once he was injured and the Saliba got injured, they struggled to rise to the occasion.
The only reason we have one Fa Cup is because Aubameyang stole the show. Aubameyang came with loads of experience, so it's easy.

Saka, Martinelli, and Odegaard, they might pull stats here and there and might be exciting to watch from time to time, but genuinely, I don't see them taking us to where we desire to go.
Their lack of experience is showing. I don't blame them.
Again, I talked about the lack of sufficient models in the squad.

Hopefully, you catch my drift.

U don’t know ball .

So Arsenal didn’t win matches after Gabriel
Jesus was injured ? How come Nketiah became the darling of the club in Jesus’ absence ?

U just keep dropping more and more head scratching points to defend the initial ridiculous post u made .

raumdeuter:
If a protest has the potential to threaten public peace then no govt will allow it.
Before you protest you get permission from the authorities to provide adequate security in place to protect lives and properties.
Emergency services need to be put in place for those who suffer from exhaustion

That is what happens in real democracy

Given the recent history of the particular place where there was bloodshed during a protest, only an irresponsible govt will allow such to go ahead when a few months before there was a major confrontation

Governance is different from activism, where you seek to destroy and burn things down

Recently one lady was asking Sanwo-Olu about Mohbad forensic test and Sanwo-Olu told her that the lab which govt spent billions on was burnt down during endsars. Which responsible govt will wait for another burning down of infrastructure that's not even enough in the first place

In a true democracy there are laws guiding protests

You may not:
Block access to sidewalks or buildings
March in the streets without a permit
Disrupt counter-protests
Engage in speech that is obscene, makes knowingly false statements of fact, or that is likely to incite an immediate disruptive or dangerous disturbance

https://www.aclusocal.org/en/know-your-rights/protesters

Like I said earlier , u can try to spin it but it is what it is .

Maybe u are not familiar with the Nigerian constitution as regards the right to protests and prevented cases , but I am .

Check sections 38-41 of the Nigerian constitution , the right of citizens to a lawful peaceful protests is entrenched therein. There’s even an appeal court case involving IGP V. ANPP (2008) 12 WRN 65 which held “certainly in a democracy, it is the right of citizens to conduct peaceful processions, rallies or demonstrations without seeking and obtaining permission from anybody. It is a right guaranteed by the 1999 constitution and any law that attempts to curtail such right is null and void and of no effect.”

Nigeria is a country that pretends to practice democracy but in actual sense is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak .

The police/government’s job is to ensure the protest is not hijacked by non-state actors , it’s not to preempt violence and deny the citizens their fundamental human right .

raumdeuter:
By choosing to organize a protest when govt said No protest abi shey na another matter?

He get luck. He should be thanking his stars that he was born a few decades late. He should ask how such protest led to 2yrs detention in Gashua prison for the likes of Gani and co. And that Sanwo-Olu and Lagosians are civilized people

The governor does not have a right to declare no protest . U live in America where they practice true democracy , u should not be supporting this kind impunity .

The constitution of Nigeria allows for lawful peaceful protest. What the governor and the police did that day was illegal in a free democracy .

Yeah , me personally won’t put myself in such position because I know Nigeria is a jungle and we don’t practice democracy in Nigeria , but it doesn’t mean he contravened the law . A governor and police commissioner placing a ban on protest in a democracy is Illegal .

I know u will try to spin this , but it is what it is .

It will be assumed u are insulated from the general hardship being experienced countrywide .

Roland17:
Zinny defended the way he knows how to. His positioning/ when defending is poor, he struggles with keeping the line and lacks recovery/ pace when beaten. Inverting him against intense teams that keep possession only exacerbates his deficiencies.

For instance, Martinelli loses the ball high up in Liverpool’s half which triggers a counter attack. When the counter starts, Zinny is already at a disadvantage because he has already inverted into the attacking (midfield) half of Liverpool, Havertz is also around that area.

He lacks the pace and when he finally catches up, his positioning is horrible, so he is easily beat. I have always suggested playing a flat back 4 in instances like yesterday.

U are very right, u can’t give what u don’t have . Zinchencko will always play like that against Salah 10 out of 9 times . It has nothing to do with disrespect or comparing him with Konate/Gomez .

Even if they take out Salah and replace him with any other winger who has pace and knows his onions , the outcome will always be the same because Zinchenko can’t give what he doesn’t have . Martinelli losing possession while running into a human maze in the Loserpool half did not also help Zinchencko’s game at all.

If Arteta is wise, he will do something about the inequality that exists between Salah v Zinchecko before the next 2 matches between Arsenal and Loserpool . If not, we might jolly well lose those 2 matches cos I trust Klopp to instruct his players to exploit that side of the pitch to their maximum advantage .

Lush100:
Of which most are injured or play below expectation.
Partey,Timber, ESR, Tomiyasu, Veira all injured.
Kwikor, Jorginho below par.
Nelson and Ramsdale not given enough play time.

Only Nketiah, Trosaard, and Tomiyasu are regular sub.

U can’t eat ur cake and have it . Not many top players will agree to be permanent sub in a big team like Arsenal .

Most of the Top teams have grade B players as subs ( maybe except man city sha ) . Arsenal is not an exception .

Today no one will get approval for any structure in that axis that does not have dedicated parking. They may even insist that some floors be parking spaces.

In actual sense lasg can do anything they want to do,unfortunately. By law the Governor can revoke any cofo at will.

They need to introduce laws for soundproofing of nightclubs and entertainment hubs going forward.

Quilox has been there for a while na. Shebi it’s somebody that approved the siting of the club there without any arrangement for parking space .

And it’s not just quilox alone , there are other clubs like that in V.I and even on the mainland approved without parking space . I Dey see them in the morning when I dey go work well well; it’s touts that park people by side of the road and offer security protection .

Government needs to check itself first , they should fish out the people approving such anomalies

Wetin dey amuse me most is the fact that the Skoin skoin loverboy role e dey play for movies is exactly how e be for real life. So can we even call him an actor when he's basically playing himself

African Boomer and Gen X men really have this problem of interacting with their kids. They can't critique without absolutely destroying your psyche, look at that boy wey be like wetin e vomit. So e no even fit deny am.

Wey e suppose use nepotism help him life. I believe you can absolutely have disdain for your ex and still treat your kids well. Just look at Eminem and his daughtert vs the mother

That man will be 70 and some goofy will tell him to forgive the man like that without the man ever apologizing or acknowledging his bad behavior

U are right about men of that generation and they destroy the psyche of their kids with their toxicity . If u even check the comments of those defending Emeka Ike, u will know a lot of people didn’t grow up in an environment where there’s genuine fatherly love .

Imagine people saying “ almost everybody has at one time at the other had their dad talk down on them in anger “ ….. “ the boy should stop making mountain out of mole hill because his dad cuss in out of anger “ 🤮

How will a father tell his own son to go and die ? When no be say dem arrest the boy for armed robbery or murder . Smh

Instead make Emeka Ike dey do media your up and down dey disgrace himself , make him family and friends just go carry am go rehab or therapy session

They will soon unseal it. One of the clubs they sealed recently and announced on nairaland FP, I saw it on Friday bubbling like it was never sealed .

After some days they will unseal quilox and it will be business as usual .

By the way , I think Shina Peller left APC and joined Accord party during the last election

So na Chinese own Wolves? How come dem

Can't they just demolish that club
Shina pellet must be one stubborn goat

That club dey really dey constitute nuisance for that location . I believe Lagos state government knows they are complicit in the siting of the club there , that’s why they can’t take definite action .

At least they can’t say they didn’t approve the land for it to be used as club . I’m guessing they know if they take any drastic action probabaly he will sue them.

I saw th he commissioner’s post and it didn’t make any sense to me.
