I begi, musical brilliance does not mean he is same academically and because you are not good academically does not make you a dullard

idupaul:
So you believe a young man that made his dreams come true by becoming an international superstar at the age when U were or are still disturbing your father for money is not smart enuff to make a common 2;1 , keep deceiving urself

In this context, you mean he could have bribed is way through because him becoming a superstar does not indicate his academical brilliance.

Why the rag tied to his wrist??

May his lost soul find rest.

Someone died and you are so insensitive to ask about a band on his hand. Is that a condolence greeting or what?

You are indeed a ``handbag``……
What business does body spray and roll-on have with mouth odour??

Guy melo. Can't you see she mentioned Body odour in the body of her post. Haba who is now the real handbag. Must everything be spelt out to you or you are just out to get back at the Op. I pity does who liked your post without taking reasoning.

I don't think he is fully fit, him and Nwakali didn't train with the team wella together with Chidera Eze cos they were almost late to the camp

Mention the coach's name. Which one is northerner brother? Tribalism breeds.

stinggy:
My fear in all these is that any guy can be lied against from now on. We know Police will never carry out due investigation when their palms are greased.
All a wicked lady needs now is suspicion of infidelity and she'll scheme out the acts to follow

Then guys should stop having casual sex relationships but courtship when they are ready to settle down.

jmoore:
The same reason applies to both. Any man that can rape a grown woman is capable of raping a baby too. Seductive dressing is not a reason at all.

When a child is raped means the man is demented but when a woman is raped due to revealing clothes means she invited it. Why wearing revealing clothes when you know it is given the men a Indecency image which is not different from seeing Indecency pictures that could plant evil thoughts. In all what is bad should be condemned. Rape is worse. Wearing of revealing clothes is worst.

more ministries to bring their number to 18. The new
ministries include those of Religious/Welfare and Planning,
Design, Evaluation and Strategy. Umahi spoke shortly after
being sworn in as the third elected governor of the state at
the Abakaliki Township Stadium.

So this is what makes front page now while other germane ones are left hidden. Nairaland is becoming watery with its impresssion.

Uncleodi:
No need to scream and shout ftc!

Nah!!

Back to the issue, Nigeria belongs to us all and not a few. So in the spirit of fairness, the Federal Character was established to drive home the concept of equity.

Take for instance if an opposition state goes without a Federal minister, what will become of the jobless youths who would not be employed by the Governor? So I strongly believe that each state should produce a Federal Minister as it has a long way/role in grass root development.

What are you saying? Does ministerial appointments create jobs for youths.? Haba

soe:
Shouldn't he appoint an NSA first before going to discuss security matters?

The NSA is meant to be the Secretary on Security Matters for goodness sake.

And why does he have to go and visit them, can't he delegate

Haba, let him visit. So you want him to use delegation start so that his enemies can start sabotaging his moves. Let him make the first to third visits and then delegate the rest of the meeting or even alternate it.

Yoruba fool. Ubah knows when probe is done..he is requesting it, when done...90% will be Yoruba marketers.

You know you are the greatest fool ever by adding Yoruba. Call him a fool if you will and live where he came from. Are you demented to get an understanding all this years?

President Muhammadu Buhari has reinforced his government’s commitment to fight corruption and to ensure offenders face the full wrath of the law.

In a Vanguard compilation of comments and thoughts of Buhari, 48 hours before his inauguration as the new Nigeria leader, he reiterated the top issues his administration will tackle after assuming office – security, unemployment, fighting corruption, infrastructure amongst others.

He said the Goodluck Jonathan administration has grounded the Nigerian system, as he acknowledged the challenges he must face to bring about the ‘change’ Nigerians are yearning for.

He said, “the biggest message is to try and persuade the people that it is not possible to change the state of affairs now. It took 16 years to get to that state of affairs. Nigeria earned more revenue during that period than what it earned from 1914 to 1999.

“We used to have Nigeria Airways, Nigerian National Shipping Line, Nigeria Railway. Where are they now? Where is the infrastructure that is commensurate with what we earned in-between, what is on ground? That is how efficiently the PDP managed Nigeria in the last 16 years."

Buhari assured that no stone will be left unturned in the fight against corruption, noting that not even immunity clause will aid the escape of anyone who is fingered and found guilty by the law.

He stated, “we will make sure that we get cooperation from the judiciary so that people who worked against the law are prosecuted, especially those who have lost their immunity, even those who think they have immunity because this is the best way to stabilize the system.

“People must not benefit from being lawless. You can’t be in a position by virtue of the Constitution, subvert the Constitution and continue to enjoy the privileges offered by the Constitution. I don’t think that will be acceptable by the APC.

“So, whether you are in the opposition or the government, you have to behave. I think that is the way we can make progress.”

I beg this is not about APC or PDP anymore but about Nigeria. So do what you need to do be it in APC or PDP or any gadem thing.

[quote author=5minsmadness post=34268770[/quote]The truth is a woman can't be same with a woman except the deluded ones belief.
Now a man makes money, goes to the battle field or strongly desire to, always at alert in the home to protect everyone. Can a woman apart from making money becauase all achievements stil boils down to making money, do the war while a man snores?

Bullshit. How does this picture concludes that the office of first lady still exists. I have a Nigerian flag as well and can put same quality photo for my wife and call her the First lady. Nonsence mischief makers. What the heck here declares this piece as official. My friend steam off.

You all are just ranting. Fight against terrorism is not about just conventional or nonconventional war strategy. This is terrorism not war and to fight terrorism a lot of intelligence gathering ought to take the forefront to hack down their sponsors while the combat is ongoing. Which makes me question exactly what DIA, NIA and SSS are doing.
Truly Military command does not need to be relocated to Maiduguri to combat these evil guys but heavy military presence needs to be seen and I mean heavy presence.

Op, you are wrong though to have cited International operations to justify your point. I would have loved it if you have cited a situation where USA have to fight terrorism acts has heavy as Book haram within the confines of their state.

This brings me to my conclusion that either the command is moved to Maiduguri or not if the right strategy is not implored nothing can be achieved.

The most luckiest person in that gathering is "Prof. Yemi Osinbajo "
Just like that he became the Vice President...

Na dat kain luck I dey find o..

It is not luck. He had the pedigree to be chosen and was favoured.

A Federal High Court in Lagos has barred the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission from giving effect to its proposed increment in electricity tariff.

Justice Mohammed Idris made the order on Thursday after a Lagos-based lawyer, Mr. Toluwani Adebiyi, moved an ex parte application to that effect.

The Chairman of NERC, Dr. Sam Amadi, had, at a recent press conference in Abuja, disclosed the plan by the commission to implement an upward review of electricity tariff payable by Nigerians.

The proposed increment, Amadi said, was billed to commence from June 1,2015.

But Adebiyi, who claimed that the proposed increment would “foist further hardship on Nigerians,” had appeared in court on Thursday with a motion ex parte, praying the court to stop it.

Amadi, while canvassing argument before the court, contended that any increment in tarrif was unjustifiable in the face of poor or erratic supply of electricity by the distributing companies.

According to the lawyer, if the proposed increment is allowed, most electricity companies will retain the N750 fixed charge.

Justice Idris, after hearing the application, ordered that the status quo be maintained pending the determination of the substantive suit.

The judge ordered the plaintiff to serve the motion on notice and other processes in the suit on the NERC.

Justice Idris also granted leave to the applicant to serve the originating summons, the affidavit in support, list of exhibits and the written address on the defendant in Abuja, which is outside Lagos judicial division of the Federal High Court.

The judge also adjourned the suit to June 11, 2015 for hearing.

In the main suit, the plaintiff is seeking an order restraining the NERC from implementing any upward review of electricity tariff without a meaningful and significant improvement in power supply at least for 18 hours in a day in most communities in Nigerian.

All they know is to increase and not to offer value. Bunch of thiefs. I feel like strangling someone right now.

What manners do you want him to learn. What manners do we have in opening door, is he your servant.

And who told you that this is a normal standard for the whites or other foreigners. Better wake up. lazy butts. You are mannerless and want to be treated as a doll.

Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert was sentenced Monday to eight months in prison for unlawfully accepting money from a U.S. supporter, capping the dramatic downfall of a man who only years earlier led the country and hoped to bring about a historic peace agreement with the Palestinians.

Olmert was convicted in March in a retrial in Jerusalem District Court. The sentencing comes in addition to a six-year prison sentence he received last year in a separate bribery conviction, ensuring the end of the former premier's political career.

Olmert's lawyer, Eyal Rozovsky, said Olmert's legal team was "very disappointed" by the ruling and would appeal to Israel's Supreme Court. They were granted a 45-day stay, meaning the former Israeli leader will avoid incarceration for now.

Olmert also was given a suspended sentence of an additional eight months and fined $25,000.

A slew of character witnesses had vouched for Olmert, including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and former Israeli Mossad chief Meir Dagan in written statements read aloud Monday. The verdict stated that it recognized Olmert's vast contributions to Israeli society and sentenced him to less than the prosecution had demanded. Still, it ruled that "a black flag hovers over his conduct."

Olmert was forced to resign in early 2009 amid the corruption allegations. His departure cleared the way for hard-liner Benjamin Netanyahu's election, and subsequent Mideast peace efforts have not succeeded.

Olmert, 69, was acquitted in 2012 of a series of charges that included accepting cash-stuffed envelopes from U.S. businessman Morris Talansky when Olmert was mayor of Jerusalem and a Cabinet minister. Olmert was found to have received about $600,000 from Talansky during his term as mayor, and additional amounts in cash during his term as a Cabinet minister, but a court did not find evidence the money had been used for unlawful personal reasons or illegal campaign financing.

Talansky, an Orthodox Jew from New York's Long Island, had testified the money was spent on expensive cigars, first-class travel and luxury hotels, while insisting he received nothing in return.

The acquittal on the most serious charges at the time was seen as a major victory for Olmert, who denied being corrupt. He was convicted only on a lesser charge of breach of trust for steering job appointments and contracts to clients of a business partner, and it raised hopes for his political comeback.

But Olmert's former office manager and confidant Shula Zaken later became a state's witness, offering diary entries and tape recordings of conversations with Olmert about illicitly receiving cash, leading to a retrial. In the recordings, Olmert is heard telling Zaken not to testify in the first trial so she would not incriminate him.

The judges concluded that Olmert gave Zaken part of the money in exchange for her loyalty, and used the money for his own personal use without reporting it according to law. They convicted him on a serious charge of illicitly receiving money, as well as charges of fraud and breach of trust.

In a separate trial in March 2014, Olmert was convicted of bribery over a Jerusalem real estate scandal and was sentenced to six years in prison. He appealed and has been allowed to stay out of prison until a verdict is delivered.

At the time Olmert resigned as prime minister, Israel and the Palestinians had been engaged in more than a year of intense negotiations over the terms of Palestinian independence. The Palestinians seek all of the West Bank and east Jerusalem, in addition to the Gaza Strip, for an independent state. Israel occupied the three areas in the 1967 Mideast war, though it withdrew from Gaza in 2005.

Since leaving office, Olmert has said he presented the Palestinians the most generous Israeli proposal in history, offering roughly 95 percent of the West Bank, along with a land swap covering the remaining 5 percent of territory. In addition, he proposed international administration in east Jerusalem, home to the city's most sensitive religious sites.

Palestinian officials have said that while progress was made, Olmert's assessment was overly optimistic.
