How are we even going to salvage this country? It is a pity.

A court under severe pressure and threats from disgraced countries like the USA, Israel and others. An actual genocide being condoned.

SenecaTheYonger:
Terrorist sponsors are telling you gullible Nigerians that USA is not happy about our refinery so they can sway the public against USA’s effort to assist in killing bandits.

Let me educate u Nigeria. There is nothing Trump hates more than immigrants coming to his country. And he knows that any country that is destabilized, their citizens will want to move to the USA, so republicans and republican presidents will do anything in their power to make sure Nigeria is not destabilized.


Now Democrats are different. The more they destabilize other countries, the more they can take in their citizens, care for them, feed them, house them, so they can vote democrats in the future. That is how democrats secure votes.

Now you know the difference between the two parties.

This your view is ill-informed. Was George Bush a democrat? You don't understand USA's foreign policy. That country is well structured. It doesn't matter who is in office, certain objectives remain the same.

Trump is just a racist who wants only white immigrants. Every other thing remains the same. They are still destabilising other countries. What is the business of the CIA overseas? They are several reports and videos online by former agents.

Some of you don't read or care to know the truth. When you make a country inhabitable, the only sensible thing is for the people of that country to join you in your own country.

The USA only cares about maintaining its hegemony. They fund terrorists, force regime change and topple democratic governments. It is well documented. They don't want competition. So what are you talking about?

It is the height of naivety to think the USA cares about Nigeria or our interest. I don't expect them too either. No one is going to save us but ourselves. The USA is no ones messiah.

A lesson for you. Next time you will prosecute and leave no stone unturned.

Precedent is now set. Successive presidents have taken note.

On a second thought, why are our laws open to discretions and loopholes for circumvention?

Lawyers and others conversant with the law, could you be kind to educate us?

The Supreme Court has the power to overrule its previous decision. There is a precedent now, but it can change in the future. It depends on the circumstances of the case, not just the law. Procedurial misstep can lead to the loss of a case. Everything is important. Some laws are somewhat ambiguous, so in such situations, arguments will be made by lawyers from different perspectives to support their case. Just as our opinions differ, people can look at a law and analyse it based on their understanding. Ultimately, it is the judge that decides. Whatever the judge interprets is the law.

We are still talking about those funding terrorism, why do we keep making "Farouks" in charge of different aspects of our oil sector? Same thing with defence. Look at the result.

Fubara is weak and not a politician… but his current action is justifiable because he needs to complete his tenure…

His biggest mistake was riding on the back of Wike to become governor, he never won the election by his own efforts

How would he had won without Wike in the first place? Wike is the one that gave him the ambition to be a governor. Do you even understand that?Fubara was just a civil servant. In a thousand years, he wouldn't have won a governorship election in Rivers State. Not even an LGA election. Wike helped his life.

If you understand how these things work, you would know there is no extent these guys won't go to sell a narrative. Take 9/11 for example. Benjamin Netanyahu is desperate.

jiggyman:
Funniest thing is people with highest educational qualifications are sat there in this church shouting amen

Educational qualifications do not stop gullibility or susceptibility to deception. There are educated people who still believe people go to the moon and all the crap NASA says. They got those false teachings in school. The system is corrupt. It is a worldwide phenomenon.

Now with regards to this, even by reading the Bible, the attributes of false prophets become clear. There is another fellow who released a song with the musician Flavour. Most people don't care about the truth, they want entertainment. The truth sets you free.

wisemaster:
You think you'll be fighting Burkina Faso. Have you heard about AES. Nigeria better not start what they cannot finish. Military onslaught is not by numbers but strategy.

We will be fighting Burkina Faso. We might as well end that their military rule, since they have refused to be reasonable. If others decide to join Burkina Faso, Nigeria has allies. We must bring those soldiers home.

They are still being held? Does Burkina Faso want war? This is an outrage, and totally irresponsible on their part. President Tinubu must secure their release within the next 24 hours. Sometimes force is necessary, when diplomacy fails. Six days in detention is unacceptable for our military officers.

We need to change the way we do burials in Africa. That is one of the things I admire about the West. You mustn't eat and share stuff all the time. It is not a wedding. Mourn and go home.

The impunity in Nigeria is something else. Why will the lecturer resort to violence? He is the one that should be arrested. The student must be released. Too bad NANS and SUGs are just concerned with power and nothing more.

masterfactor:
One party state is finally becoming a reality. APC will operate without opposition. God Bless BAT.

Nothing like a one party state. There are other parties in Nigeria. ADC is another viable opposition party.

jlinkd78:
If the world understands d attachment and admiration d entire Igbo race has for Nnamdi Kalu Nigerian Govt would have been more careful in believing d few misguided politicians that tell them otherwise
The Biafran course which Nnamdi Kalu has preached is an ideology that neither bullets or incarceration combined can't stop

Mtcheww. Gullible lot.

Dancing fellow will need a new dance step.

When will we start attacking to wipe these terrorists out? Repelling is not enough.

You can't deny that.

Don't mock our sensibilities. A man you didn't allow to have peace for not defecting to the APC with you.

You are playing your own politics.

Opobo snake was not there. He and his one commissioner that is Peter Odili's daughter. After this tenure, he should not bother re-contesting. Rivers State has had enough of this crisis. Fubara has no integrity. Cunning thief. Just sharing Rivers money to people who burnt the assembly building and pretending not to know what he is doing.

That rogue nation called the USA keeps talking about genocide. There is a genocide ongoing in Gaza which they are enabling.

We know who truly calls the shot. This is just a display of inferiority complex and delusion from someone without any political weight. Clueless neophyte.

He is indeed in a trap. Was this Keyamo fellow not summoned by the senate? You have left your job to gallivant. Go and address the hike in air fares.

reddingtonblack:
@ BondRiv i dey wait your come back, people like you shouldnt be talking ...

supporting illegality, what effrontery

There was nothing worth responding to. Why are you blaming Wike for the budget? The governor has declared several times in the past that the crisis is not hindering the performance of his job. You guys keep making excuses. And what business do I have with publication of resolutions? Can you now see the nonsense that do not warrant any response? Are resolutions at private political meetings usually made public? It is at the discretion of the participants. The Speaker simply decided to set the record straight because the governor was misleading the public. Fubara is also notorious for not honouring resolutions. If you don't understand politics, go to the entertainment section.

Grading 60 as F is ridiculous.

richmond500:
i doubt he will.
Fubara is cunning but does not like political drama that will make people see him as a bully.
He rather will cunningly be seen as the victim instead of being the bully

I see words being used to mask cowardice.

Wike is the leader. That is the reality. However, people are free to deceive themselves as usual. Fubara, a neophyte, can't lead anybody in politics.

Fubara: if he sees his Defêction as gaining supermacy , he will start having power tussle - opuende

Rivers State House of Assembly lawmaker Honourable Lolo Isaiah Opuende has warned Governor Siminalayi Fubara against using his defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC) as a strategy to establish dominance over FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and the state legislature.

Speaking during an interview from 7:49 with Nigerian Info FM, Opuende acknowledged the governor’s constitutional right to change party affiliation. “The governor has right and the freedom to associate the constitution, so he empowered him. So we have nothing to say. If he has defected, it is a welcome development. At least we all can be in the same party and work together for the development of the state if he sees it from that angle,” he said.

The lawmaker cautioned that Fubara should not view his party switch as a power play against his former political mentor. “But if he sees his defection as gaining supremacy over whatever that is when he will start having power tussle with some other person. You will start flexing muscle with some other persons because you defecting from PDP where you’ve lost grip and going into APC where you may not even have another grip is another question to ask because if I am leaving a party I should be able to leave with some structures that will be accepted,” Opuende stated.

This is the only reasonable thing here. The rest are clowning as they usually do until harsh reality sets in.

A thread of jokes. Political neophytes congratulating themselves. How exactly does this affect a man who pledged his loyalty to the president long ago, and the boy he put in office has now done same? Circus.

When a president is more concerned with optics than substance, this is the result.
