This is same as criminal incitement. That's not what I'm talking about. If a person asks around for a gun to rob a bank, if he never got the gun and never robbed the bank, the act of asking around for a gun cannot be incitement or solicitation. It would require being inside the persons head to prove intent
You obviously don't know much about the law.

There is a difference between words of mouth and words of mouth together with other acts.

For instance, you go to a bank and say to the cashier, "I am going to rob you?"

You have no weapons on you. The cashier might signal for help, but there is not so much the police can charge you by.

But supposing you go to the cashier and say "I will rob you now" and you reach for a knife lying close by. Even if you didn't get the knife and so didn't end up robbing the bank, your act constitutes criminal threat as your verbal threat and your reaching out for the knife are evidence of an intent to commit the crime you have threatened to commit.

You go to a gun seller and tell him, "I am going to rob a bank".

That is a threat, but not a criminal threat.

The law states that to establish intent, one or two acts must happen one after the other or simultaneously.

So, saying you will do something is not criminal, and no intent is present.

But supposing you go to the gun seller and say, "give me a gun, I want to rob a bank!"

The intent to commit a crime is present.

While you will have your time in court, you can be charged based on that intent.

My question is how do you drive intent by mere talk? That's an impossible thing to do
Read this, please:

Therefore, a defendant can be convicted of soliciting, even though the person refuses and the solicited crime is never perpetrated, as long as the intent that that crime be committed is present.

Nigeria is supposed to follow the law. The law does not work based on prediction, it works based on facts. To say that you wont fold your arms and watch another terrorist group emerge is to criminalise Kanu and his group based on future predictions. That's is wrong.

That means that the security forces can arrest you tomorrow and deal with you because they predict you might become an armed robber in the future
Tell me, what means of the law has Kanu utilized so far in his bid to get a referendum?

Let's say I ask around for a gun to rob a bank. I never hot the gun and I never robbed the bank. I can actually be charged for the intention of robing a bank? What exactly would the court be evaluating? Spoken words? I could easily say to the courts that I never intended to rob a bank and the case would be thrown out since intention proven by mere spoken words alone. The only time the intention can be proven is if I actually got the gun

The same applies to Kanu
You don't have to get what you solicited for. Soliciting a weapon for the intent to commit a crime is criminal solicitation.

He called for arms? So your headache is the call he made?

But you're in a country where Niger Delta militant cultists, Killer herdsmen, Boko haram and ISIS West Africa are all armed and killing people daily

But your headache is the person who is making a call for arms? Lol
So, we should fold our hands and let another armed group join the ones already troubling the peace of the countryhuh

Come on, we can't afford another terrorist group on our hands. If they had tamed Yusuf when he began his extreme Salafist teachings in Yobe, we won't have Boko Haram today. If Abacha had handled the Niger-Delta issue with tact, we won't have to deal with youth militancy in the Niger Delta.

And if we had addressed the farmer-herdsman crisis a long time ago, we won't be reading news about killings and reprisals.

Kanu is not a tactful person. If he is not dealt with, he would become another trouble. And as you know, it would certainly be the region he comes from that would suffer it. .

If he wants referendum, there are better ways to get it. Buhari cannot give him referendum. Only the constitution can. And there is nothing like referendum in our constitution.

Anybody can solicit arms. What matters is if you actually get arms and what you use it for.

That's why Kanu could not be charged based on that video. The solicitation its self is not illegal

I can say that I want guns so as to go and rob a bank. But if I never got the guns and never robbed any bank, I have not committed any crime except to talk
First of all, there is something called criminal solicitation. So solicitation can be a crime. You want a gun. Your intent for wanting to get the gun is to rob a bank. Robbing a bank is a crime.

In criminal solicitation, intent can be everything. Your intent for owning a gun is to commit a crime. The law erases everything else and focuses on the intent to commit a crime which is present.

You can be charged on that intent alone.

He was in the US requesting funds to procure arms? Checkout what Nigeria did to those who already have arms and murder Nigerians daily

Niger Delta Militants:- Got amnesty programme worth billions of Naira

Killer Herdsmen:- Got Ruga settlement programme worth billions

Boko Haram:- Got billions in ransom payments

But IPOB that has never been armed and killed nobody, got military deployment and terrorist tag.

If you take up arms and kill Nigerians, you will be handsomely rewarded in Nigeria. But if you remain unarmed, stick to mere rhetoric and protest, they will send all the python dance in the world after you and declare you a terrorist.

If you then say that you want the democratic instrument of a referendum to determine where you want to belong, they will call that an act of war

Nigeria is just a joke and nobody is laughing any more
You talk as if Boko Haram, Niger Delta militants and killer herdsmen have not faced fires too. Even as at last year, militants were still being killed in the creeks and/or arrested and prosecuted.

As for Boko Haram, the Nigerian military has been dealing ruthlessly with them with a combination of air and land strikes. Their activities have now been restricted to terrorizing villages many of which are far away from military posts.

As for the killer herdsmen. Well, you don't follow the news at all, do you?

There is nothing like killer herdsmen. If you mean Fulani militia, well, they have been taken care of long ago. RUGA is not to compensate killer herdsmen but to find a lasting solution to the herdsman-farmer crisis that has been occuring in the country even before many of us here were born.

The herdsmen and farmers are both businessmen. Due to scarce resources, there are bound to be conflicts between them. Killing rampaging herdsmen since the 80s has not solved the problem. Do you want government to continue to use the same method when that method has failed time and time again? So, Buhari is looking for nonviolent ways to end the issue once and for all, but every suggestion he makes is frowned at by people who are preconditioned into believing that he does not mean good for the country.

The fund ought to belong to the church. Yet, it is the pastor who takes all the credits.

Christianity has been reduced to nothing but pastors and church members. When Paul collected donations for the poor in Jerusalem, he offered the funds as contributions from fellow brethren.

But today's church is a case of monkey dey work baboon dey chop. I am very certain Ibiyeomi has very little stake in the fund used for erecting those structures.

As a matter of fact, project funds should go into secure accounts accessible to all stakeholders of the church, including all members or representatives of members, so that accountability can be emphasized in churches. And all projects should be marked as church contributions and not pastor's contributions.

I wonder why people are surprised. We all know that Yak is not 37 years old. He is at least 45.

Reminds me of Dele Ajiboye talking about watching and learning from Peter Rufai as a kid. The old man forgot that going by his age, he was not supposed to have watched or learnt from Peter Rufai.

The Peter Rufai of 1998 was not a joy to watch. So, the age cheat must have been talking about the Rufai of the late 80s and early 90s.

EducationRe: Daddy Freeze Reacts To Expulsion Of Babcock Female Student In Leaked Sex Video by BluntBoy(m): 2:12pm On Nov 21, 2019
adarayz:
This guy is high on albino grass

Somebody should give him milk.

The schools image got tarnished daddy freeze, I think it's akamu that's in your brain

You guy should understand the situation, the caption on the lead video was "a babcock student" not a dark girl


#be-guided
Was she expelled because of the image of the school or because she had sex?

It is only in Africa and some hypocritical Asian countries like India that students get expelled for "tarnishing the image of the school".

In my opinion, the judgment was rushed in Babcock's bid to react favorably to the surge of the news on social media. There were alternatives that they could have agreed upon rather than outright expulsion. That is why there are committees whose members are carefully selected for this special and sensitive role.

I am sure that the code of conduct of the school does not cover sexual activities outside school grounds. Many codes of conduct emphasize the need to be good ambassadors of the school, but does consensual sex (even though premarital) make one totally a bad ambassador of the school?

Does the law outside the school view consensual but premarital sex as a crime?

In my opinion, anything other than expulsion would have been great. Expelling the girl does not make Babcock suddenly such a disciplined school to me. I know many of their graduates who are wayward and very bad ambassadors of the school in learning and overall conduct. But yet they graduated because they were able to hide their bad behaviors.

So, what really is the point? A school is primarily a place of learning as well as discipline (Reformation where necessary). So, if a girl had consensual sex, why shy away from the primary task of counseling her? They took the easy way out by expelling her.

Until recently, tribalism was not that much pronounced between Yorubas and Igbos, at least not on social media (I don't suppose it exists really so boldly in real life). Tinubu was fair to Igbos during his administration. So, I don't see how the tribal angle you are trying to see things from can be taken seriously.

What does anyone expect that Bode George would do differently other than divert funds meant for election planning and strategies?
RomanceRe: My Friend Told Her Boyfriend That I Am Just A Friend,, Now This Is Happening. by BluntBoy(m): 2:01pm On Nov 20, 2019
Sunisonflex39:
I met this girl two years ago, to cut long story short, she told me that she is in a relationship. I respected the fact that she has a guy and I stopped making advance as a gentleman. But I call as much as possible just to check on her.

Then one night, her boyfriend chatted me up on Whatsapp and as gentlemen, we talked about it like matured people and I told him I am not gonna stick around that he should talk to his girlfriend.

I asked how he got my number, he said he secretly took it from her phone because of the many calls and most times I call, both of them are together.

I asked him what has the girl been telling him about me, he told me she is saying we are just friends and nothing much.

II apologized to him and said I will watch my limits that he should talk to the girl himself about it.

Two days passed, I have stopped calling the girl like I used to, then on the third day she called and asked me why did I change all of a sudden that I no longer chat her up or call like I used to, she was being emotional, and as a good friend, I love her and wouldn't want to see her sad.

I opened up to her about what transpired between me and her guy and I begged her not to confront him. She was so mad at the guy for chatting me up after she has told him many times that I am "just a friend".

I told the girl that for the sake of her relationship, I don't want to stick around and I don't want to be the guy that breaks people's relationships.

The girl started crying and said I should not leave her, that I should at least be her best friend that she can't loss me..

I agreed to be the bestfriend so as to make her feel happy..

Fast forward to this week, the girl said she loves me so much and didn't know how to tell me before and she is kind of confused to chose between her guy and me. I told her that I love her too but she should not leave anybody for me that we should just continue being friends and see what the future holds because no one knows tomorrow.

Few days ago, the girl said she wants to have sex with me.. and even going as far as telling me the style she wants..

I respect the fact that she is in a relationship and I even told her about it, but she was having non of it.

Please nairalanders, what should I do.
Bro, you are towing the path of destruction by listening to that woman. She is a serpent who is out to destroy you.

You made a pact with the boyfriend, be a gentleman and follow it to the letter. That girl would destroy you.

You are the one who would suffer such a terrible fate.

It is this very same intolerance that you just exhibited that the people who killed this woman exhibited.

Why can't you support whatever party you like and let others support theirs?

You don't even know why this woman was killed? It might not even be related to the elections or to political party enmity. It might even be personal beef, and the post election tension was used to distract people from the original reason for the act.

Someone said it must be Onoja who did it, and it appears like Onoja had some scores to settle with this woman. If that be the case, how does that concern APC as a party?

Was it Oshiomole or Buhari or Tinubu who asked political thugs to go and eliminate the woman? If they could remove Bukola Saraki from the Senate without bloodshed, why should this woman ever be so much of a threat that needed to be killed?

This looks more like a personal beef between two people rather than two political parties.

Would you train your children to just swallow up everything they read on social media?

There was no need to curse. They were within their rights to disbelieve a story and brand it propaganda if the story does not have evidences.

For example, when I hear a story or news, I first check the source. Even if you put all the pictures of this world in there, if the link is questionable, I will never believe until I see the story on two or more credible websites.

That was why I asked what the motive was for eliminating a perceived threat when elections had been won and lost?
