Streetinvestor2: LWKD...coming from you who is more Nigerian than anyone. While the records of the failed government is thr for all nigeria to talk about. The body who said that 63% of Nigerians are living in poverty and hunger have right to speak. It is obvious the hunger and poverty is real on your side for such post to happen .I like this game alot.Do well to quote me on the politics thread and not here.
You’re fond of peddling dishonest narratives and derailing this thread
What is Obi’s track record as governor for 8 years in Anambra? I will advise you to support/Vote for your choice candidate in peace and allow others to be, democracy is based on individual choices
Guys I’m just wondering how the upcoming football World Cup will affect the fortunes of brewery stocks especially, those of Nigerian Breweries. It seems that the fundamentals and technicals are pointing to an uptick/reversal in NB
Rapmoney: Times and seasons have past. In these present times, It looks like each day in Nigeria comes with its own series of complexities, distractions, and troubles. Sometimes, I look back with an immeasurable level of nostalgic feelings to how life used to be in the 80s and 90s. I don't really call people born in those eras millennials, I call them the last set of people who witnessed a peaceful and socially balanced Nigeria.
Even though those eras were mostly characterized by military administrations, we still had a decent level of sanity in the society.
SECURITY: In the 80s and 90s, you could literally travel from Warri to Kaduna, without knowing anyone, and still find a decent place to sleep. A young man could easily travel from Akure to Owerri, without knowing anyone, and still find someone who would assist with accommodation.
Today, Nigerians cannot travel from one part of the country to another without praying and fasting. In these times, travelling by night is like a suicide mission. Something we used to do previously. We used to move from Warri to Bauchi on night buses from 1993 to 1997. In 1999, Brazilian ex-football star, Ronadinho Gaucho and his teammates toured northern Nigeria. Can that happen today?
SOCIAL LIFE AND EDUCATION: Before the advent of kidnapping, organ harvesting, internet fraud, etc, young people had a better social life. Today, people are extra careful with one another. We have heard and seen too many cases of dismembered bodies of young women in gutters, drainages, septic tanks, and on roadsides.
The things we place value on today is sometimes shocking. From the early 90s to the early part of 2000s, it was a milestone to aspire and gain admission to study in the university. Today, it is a milestone to purchase a 50,000,000 Naira Benz at the age of 17, with no known source of income.
The most lethal problems of Nigeria are multifaceted. They cut across religion, ethnicity, value system, culture, and both the old and the young in the society. And like I stated initially, as the days roll by, the demons eating into the fabric of the society multiply.
If we could have a generation of old people who are not sympathetic towards the young and the unborn generations, and a set of young people who neither understand their collective roles in the society nor concerned about real changes in the system, I wonder what the future generations would turn out to be.
Tales by moonlight for the gullible youngsters. There has never really been a time where the general masses enjoyed a good time in Nigeria. Individuals have experienced their own good moments based on their connections in society
sleek214: "By the grace of God, if I, Desmond Olusola Elliott, win, Alhamdulillah" When this one turn Muslim?. Tinubu and Gbaja put you there, you became disrespectful to them, now they don't want you in their party. Go to another party and test your popularity, it's that simple.
Most of his family members are Muslims from the father’s side
Godspowerpro: Nigeria Police Force Intensifies Internal Cleansing, Dismisses Corrupt Officers, Prosecutes Personnel Involved in Kidnapping, Robbery, Extortion
GODSPOWERPROJECT/NAOSNP
The Nigeria Police Force has reaffirmed its commitment to discipline, accountability, and institutional reform with the dismissal, arrest, and prosecution of police personnel found involved in cases of conspiracy, armed robbery, kidnapping, extortion, stealing, and abuse of office in Rivers State and its environs, National Association of Online Security News Publishers, NAOSNP can report.
The Force notes that the actions of the affected officers represent a gross betrayal of the ethics, standards, and professional values of the Nigeria Police Force. The leadership of the Force under the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, psc (+), NPM, remains resolute in its determination to identify, expose, and remove criminal elements from within the institution, irrespective of rank or position.
Investigations into one of the cases uncovered a criminal syndicate involving serving police officers attached to Zone 16 Headquarters, Yenagoa, namely Inspector Ayanniyi Jelili, Inspector Durojaye Francis, and Inspector Olayemi Titus, who allegedly engaged in armed robbery, kidnapping, and extortion while operating illegal patrols within Port Harcourt. The officers reportedly abducted victims during unlawful stop-and-search operations, forcefully gained access to their banking and cryptocurrency applications, and extorted millions of naira from them.
The investigation led to the arrest of the three officers, while three other accomplices identified as Inspector Awele Ogbogu, Inspector Prosper Aghotor, and Corporal Favour Onwuchekwa are currently at large. Exhibits recovered include three Toyota Sienna buses used for the illegal operations and the sum of ₦7,338,800.00 traced to the criminal activities. Findings further revealed that the suspects operated with firearms and had allegedly carried out similar operations against unsuspecting members of the public within Rivers State.
In a separate investigation, the Force uncovered another criminal syndicate involving officers formerly attached to the Department of Operations, Rivers State Command, namely Inspector John Okoi, Inspector Eyibo Asuquo, Inspector Udo Ndipmong, Inspector Bright Nwachukwu, and Inspector Anele Ikechukwu, who engaged in organised acts of kidnapping, extortion, stealing, and official corruption. The dismissed officers were found to have routinely abducted citizens, extorted money through unlawful transfers from victims’ bank and cryptocurrency accounts, and dispossessed them of valuables while operating under the guise of official patrol duties.
Consequently, the five implicated officers were subjected to orderly room proceedings and dismissed from the Nigeria Police Force, while the case file has been forwarded for prosecution on charges bordering on conspiracy, armed robbery, kidnapping, extortion, official corruption, and related offences.
Members of the public are encouraged to continue reporting cases of police misconduct, abuse of office, extortion, and human rights violations through established complaint channels for prompt investigation and action.
The Nigeria Police Force remains committed to a professional, transparent, accountable, and service-driven policing system firmly rooted in the rule of law and the protection of citizens’ rights.

How can anyone verify this information? You should post a link
Lovelink1991: Peter Obi is always conscious of wherever he is and where he is going. He hit the gyms but before leaving he has to erase all his finger print for security reasons.
ceejay80s: atiku and his greed and thirst for power will make tinubu win again, votes will split, if atiku doesn't want obi there ,why no put southerner there, it's not their turn, if it was their turn , atiku and his people will never allow a southerner rule, they will do everything to distabilize it, no one should blame tinubu that he rigged the election, na ua wanuse una hand carry am give am
What a load of disjointed and contradictory statements muddled up in one post.
‘Tinubu would win again’ and at the same time, no ‘one should blame Tinubu for rigging’ and Atiku should allow another southerner if not Obi, according to you. Meanwhile, a southerner is already the president.
Why can’t Obi contest in a direct primary election within the ADC to test his popularity? You guys are truly delusional
AMINDA: You are right. Obi/Kwankwaso contesting as a third force will do serious damage to Tinubu's chances, unlike in 2023. Obi will still defeat him overall across the rest of the South but this time, there will be no 5.6m Northern votes for Tinubu. Those votes will largely go to an Atiku/Makinde combination, adding to his 7m margins in 2023. This is why Tinubu is desperate to deny Obi a platform because that's the only way they can attempt to sell the "Southern unity" card. The sitting arrangement at the summit is already speaking volumes. Overall, an Atiku/Obi combination is still the best combo but not the only one.
Looking at the faces of the opposition you can tell that these men are tired but would not rest due to inherent greed
EDUECO: Wigwe's total annual income cannot be less than 40 million US Dollars; so he can afford those properties.
Each of these London property cost between 400 hundred thousand to 3 million US Dollars.
Maybe,he partly purchased these properties with bank loans and the properties will serve as collateral for the loans .
Oga pls stop making excuses for the grand scale corporate greed of Wigwe and Ogbonna. We also found out last year that Roosevelt Ogbonna (the current CEO) bought a £15 million property on London billionaires Row. I believe Access bank shareholders are the rightful owners of all those London properties
The regulator in conjunction with the EFCC should pressurise the UK government to apply for an Unexplained Wealth Order (UWO) to recover those properties asap
Nigerians should start holding their state leaders accountable for insecurity especially their local government chairmen who receives Direct monthly allocation from the central government
So many uninformed people in Nigeria. The governor was already in London to network with captains of industry and attract more foreign investment to Lagos. Therefore, it’s logical for him to be part of the Nigerian delegation to welcome the president
Wanta: Rufai oseni is an obedient ,so there is no way he will not criticise the ruling party.
He’s not really an Obedient per say, but he’s using the platform to gather support and validate his attack on government with the hope that he will be invited to the table to eat like Reno
An important feature of democratic consolidation is for all parties to accept elections results. However, it’s common across Africa for opposition parties not to accept defeat and claim rigging.
I think they should make it mandatory for African politicians to undergo counselling before they are allowed to contest elections
This fake doctor should just approach the court instead of heating up the polity
sigmax: I think LAWMA is overwhelmed ,more private firms should be granted license and house to house inspection of waste disposal compliance should be enforced .
Private contractors are already allowed to operate in the waste disposal sector in Lagos
