you are welcome...... Your moniker though...

One critical piece of information was that when shagari was told that buhari was plotting a coup against his government, shagari waved it aside claiming that he knows the coup plotters and does not know the politician that will otherwise succeed him if the coup is stopped.

By that statement, shagari preferred a fellow northerner to overthrow is government than for him to hand over to Ekweme his vice from the southeast after his tenure.

Nigerians will need to watch buhari closely as we get close to 2023 when he is expected to hand over to a southerner. We don't want a fg sanctioned coup just to prevent a southerner from being President.

hmmm, this is serious....

Hello o, as at the time Jonathan sack Sanusi, the emir of Kano Ado Bayero was still alive. You might disapprove my point but google might be of help.

he was still alive but was about naming his son as successor... A throne sanusis father gave him temporarily....... Sanusi could not just stay and watch na...

AbaLion:
How could you have 5 first class emirates of equal authority within a state. An act no one would have ever envisaged.
Sanusi's emirate would kick and few years down the line if Ganduje's successor dare revert to the traditional status, the newly enthroned emirates would kick.
I fear for kano.


-Lion

honestly.... This is the price for reelcting a corrupt governor.........


This hind of shii would not happen in the south, in fact the people would revolt..

ajebuter:
GEJ will be laughing out so loud now...

One by one, karma is visiting his betrayers..

so sanusi exposing diezani and GEJs wife with that huge sum of NNPC funds is betrayal.... Haba be real for once na, a single individual having 7 trillion.. Haba!!! Tjat is harsh na....... Sanusi did nothing wrong, i repeat sanusi did nothing wrong....

wordcat:
So with this law nothing like emir of
Kano again

there would be, bit he would also have rivals... Like emir of rano etc....

fyneguy:
GEJ that sacked him as CBN Governor? The one who sacked him was worse than who reduced his influence.

bro... Get your facts right, GEJ was under pressure sanusi announced NNPC had huge amounts undeclared, his sacking was even a welcome development from the pressure.... Besides he had a throne to return to

tactius:
I love that CBN building.

very beautiful and well maintained................ my sDad cherishes the building like wetin...and their ATM is the only one that pays minted notes constantly.... So he loves withdrawing there....

wiseone28:
Nigerian building don't always have design

who told you??.... This is CBN in abuja.... Arguably the finest architecture in the country

I hope with this delay, they would just jejely scrape pUTME cos that one is another case on its own...

BOOOMNAIJA:
The boy is definitely an ajebo......

why do you say so. Just curious??

BABANGBALI:
People are trying to look for a way to survive so as to take care of themselves and families, these useless government is compounding their problems. Revolution is loading

Revolution is loading bro...

AdolfHitlerxXx:

I am sorry to say this, but the rich gal's family likely got away with framing the luggage handlers.

Comparing the cost of Cocaine vs Tramadol is the first indicator.

The 2nd is ... the Family's influence and speed she was extracted. If you get in trouble even when 100% innocent and expect Nigerian FG to bail out, your bones would be dust before that happens.

The girl's family is so influential that they were able to pressurize the FG into bringing the matter up when discussing a business deal with Saudi.

Saudi of course would be "reasonable" so as not to jeopardize 100s of millions of dollars on the line.

Case in point - Jamal Khasoggi. The US looked the other way. What's his life compared to billions of dollars Saudi gives annually?.


Tramadol vs Cocaine comparison is as stupid as saying someone tried to steal a stainless steel cup when there was diamond or platinum available.

i get your point bro.......

This probes what i have been saying, northern children commit crime far more than the south or west but because they are more influential they get away with it 90% of the time....

deebee13:
Hate or love her, she makes sense sometimes!

ogbonti:
I do not know what the facts of the moment were in 1975, and why Gowon put up a feeble resistance. That alone is known to him and Garba!

hmmmm..... It shall be well

ogbonti:
What are u finding unbelievable?

that he suspected his CSO was planning a palace coup and he did not kill him on sight...

420active:
God of oyedepo? Another foolish Nigerian.

i swear...... Pfftttt

ogbonti:
It was believed Gowon got wind of a coup is in the pipeline before he left Nigeria for the OAU Summit. His kinsman Col. Joseph Nanven Garba (Joe Garba) was the Commander, Brigade of Guards then. When Gowon was about to enter the presidential jet going to Kampala, the last words he said was to Garba at the Airport

"He said, Joe, I am not accusing you of working with others to topple my government, but please If that is the case, ensure there is no blood shed"

Garba replied, nothing like that Sir, everyone to my knowledge is loyal to you including my humble self. They shook hands and he left for Kampala.

NEWS FLASH

Joe Garba was the man who announced the ouster of Gen. Gowon At FRCN Lagos, lmao

for real??!!!!!!

Nowenuse:
Gowon was born and bred in Zaria and not Plateau. He has more of a Hausa fulani man's mentality. Take this from a Plateau person.

same with Nzeogwu, although his was Kaduna

missyojo:
Ohhh!!! Waoooo...I thought I was the only one after reading through his story.

yoi are not alone o

3mmyz:

OlawaleBammie:

Olukat:
That's no suicide attempt
Nigeria electricity cables are the safest place to escape violence
The electricity cables are mostly for decoration not for power supply

henriettttta:

bukkyemotions:

Ginaz:
Thank God no one was hurt but the cat. I think you were only defending yourself. Don't feel guilty of killing it. If I were the one, lord knows I would have packed my bag and ran away lolz. I hate stuffs like these.

Just last month, I saw a frog in my bathroom. Very tiny but scary enough it made me ran away with soapy water Dripping off my body screaming crazy all the way from the bathroom to the sitting room cos it suddenly just jumped out of nowhere and doom!!! Landed on my Right shoulder.

lmao....
