PoliticsRe: Innoson MRAP Vehicles Involved In Accident, Five Soldiers Dead. by Cantonese: 8:07am On Feb 10, 2022
alizma:
Since yesterday when I saw the accident, I have been wondering what could possibly brought down such vehicle in that manner. It is very unfortunate and I think innoson should be held responsible. Such military vehicles should not sustain such accident.
Young man, ignorance is dangerous.

So you think Innoson should be held? When your vice president had an unfortunate helicopter crash, you held the manufacturer? Maybe you did not read about the US stealth fighter jet that crashed into the sea a few days ago, worth hundreds of millions of dollars. You also held the manufacturer responsible.

Please learn to reason properly.

Mental slavery never hides. It is like a dress that some people wear everywhere they go.

Bitterness, jealousy and envy are pitfalls that some are unable to get out from all their lives.

While some insist on buy Nigeria and make Nigeria great, some will remain in one position, slaving for others, choosing to purchase from other countries and make those countries greater. Those are the ones also who steal public funds and stash them abroad, reinforcing their servitude to their slave masters.

You have not talked about the fake bullet proof jackets imported for your soldiers to wear or the low quality boots that are imported from your slave masters for them.

Please join the military. When you come under fire, you can then decide if the problem is your Innoson vehicle.
PoliticsRe: Foreign Treatment: Reps Propose Seven-Year Imprisonment, ₦500m Fine by Cantonese: 7:38am On Feb 10, 2022
Mynd44:
Question because this is vague.

1. Does public funds includes security apparatus, logistics like planes and cars, does it include hotel accommodation for aides and security?

2. In the case of office holders with immunity(President, vice President, Governors, Deputy governors), do you try them after their tenure or is it an impeachable offence?
The truth remains that the national assembly deliberately beats about the bush over stealing or looting of public funds.

It is no longer a secret that the major aim of our politicians for grabbing power is looting of our common resources. Developed nations thrived on integrity, but China chose an uncommon path...death sentence. If it is impossible to make death sentence the law, why not make it life jail and recovery of the loot?

They will not choose that path because most of them will be caught. Rather than do that, they give us some diversionary ideas just to suffocate non political office holders.

Wetin Fit Make Her Steal Wrappers If Not Hunger..? Poor Girl, I dont blame her. I blame Nigeria as a whole who makes it tightly hard for the poor masses to survive by allowing wicked leaders govern us for selfish interest. You can tag all you want! Idc.. She stole wrappers not children or ritual killing.

The Bible Says..People do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his hunger when he is starving.
What a shame that youths like you see stealing as a good way to live. Do not give yourself away as a thief.

Meanwhile read Proverbs 6: 30 - 31 without the eyes of a thief:
“People do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his hunger when he is starving. Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold though it costs him all the wealth of his house. ... But verse 31 notes that this hungry thief will still have to pay for what he did sevenfold”.

FamilyRe: When A Wife Returns After Separation by Cantonese: 7:14pm On Feb 08, 2022
“ When a wife out of her own wish without any current justifiable reason seperates from her husband for almost two months and has now decided to return back with the kid out of her own wish without any pressure, should the man accept her back?”

Before she left, she would have been disagreeing over one or more issues with her husband. How do you determine “justifiable reason”? Maybe you are the affected person, but if you are not, simple calmly ask what went wrong. Even if the lady was misled by someone, you can also find that something caused it.

If the man is satisfied that the issue has bren resolved, what stops him for accepting his wife back? He can joyfully accept his wife back bro.

PoliticsRe: Bola Tinubu Visits Bruce Family On The Death Of Their Mother by Cantonese: 9:47am On Feb 08, 2022
FreeStuffsNG:
How you went on about Yaba and missed out on older stores in Ebute Meta East does not escape my detection but I will not give you a clue of its name wink The building has been demolished today but even I grew up seeing its relic in the heart of Ebute Meta East.

Lagos did not start with Benin arrival and the Benin were not considered to be non-Yoruba, they are seen to be part of Yoruba. It's like suggesting that Ile Ife conquered Benin by sending Oranmiyan to rule Benin or the Ibadan conquered Igbomina during the Kiriji war. It's not seen in that way .

It's revisionists that call it conquest to give a phoney narrative. That is why none of the descendants of the Benin in Lagos today who actually bear mainstream Yoruba name is an Idejo (landowners) till today and the court records have established that they don't own a land then and today. Let me not go into much details. If it was conquest they will own land.

People were going to farm in Iga Idungaran in the day and returning back home in Otto until Aromire and co chose to settle on the other side of the Atlantic. All these happened before the Portuguese and their cousin migrants from Benin arrived in Lagos.
Truly you have given yourself away as quite young and not with near as much as I know. I am a researcher in the history of Lagos and I was born and grew up in different parts of Lagos.

“ It's revisionists that call it conquest to give a phoney narrative. That is why none of the descendants of the Benin in Lagos today who actually bear mainstream Yoruba name is an Idejo (landowners) till today and the court records have established that they don't own a land then and today.

PoliticsRe: Bola Tinubu Visits Bruce Family On The Death Of Their Mother by Cantonese: 8:14am On Feb 08, 2022

Hahaha....You obviously don't know Lagos if you think and believe Lagos started and hovered around Yaba because of Dominos and the Bruces who are not originally from Lagos wink Yaba is "New Lagos " If you know Lagos, Otto and Ebute (Meta East & West).
I know Lagos much more than you bro, not just because I am a historian and have its history from the days of the Benin conquest under oba Orhogbua and claim that Lagos was a Benin war camp, but also a physical experience of how Lagos was and worked up till the eighties. I have always followed the history of Lagos since when it was named Lagos de Curamo by the Portuguese, the Obas, Eyo, Lagos Island as a whole, etc. I can tell you so much about Otto, Yaba and Ebute metta, my young friend. Yaba is no longer what it was.

Domino stores was one of those names in Yaba that you could not miss. The name was very prominent. The Bruces were part of those who made Yaba tick, just as you cannot talk of Yaba without mentioning Bobby Benson and his brother TOS Benson.

Social life at a time hovered around Yaba. You can discuss it further if you want to know more.

The Lagos that I always knew was very serene, enjoyable and peaceful.

May God comfort him and his family on the departure of their late mum.
Yaba was always the center of activities in Lagos up till the eighties. That’s where you had the stores and the schools. At that Yaba bus stop every student gathered after school to talk and enjoy. The same went for Ojuelegba, Obalende, Lawanson, Oyingbo. All those years were very beautiful. There were no visible tribal tendencies, until these same politicians appeared and ruined everything.

From the faces in the group picture, one can easily see the love and how the Murray Bruce family were very pleased to have him around and take group picture with Asiwaju Tinubu.

This is the same Asiwaju Tinubu who just landed yesterday evening and was today visiting a bereaved member of the opposition party PDP.


Only Asiwaju Tinubu has such a large heart.

Asiwaju Tinubu is a compassionate leader who doesn't discriminate against anyone. Asiwaju Tinubu is extremely capable and competent to lead Nigeria to greater heights. He is an experienced public administrator and a Patriot to the core.

Please vote for Asiwaju Tinubu.
Thank you.

Your comment only exposes that fact that you do not know much about Lagos.

Bola Tinubu’s visit had nothing to do with politics. It had to do with the fact of the history of Murray-Bruce family in Lagos and his personal relationship with the family.

You cannot talk about the history of super stores in Lagos without mentioning Domino stores, owned by the Bruce family. You cannot talk about beauty pageants in Nigeria with mentioning Ben Murray Bruce. You cannot talk of Yaba in Lagos without mentioning the Bruce family. There are so many families like that who added to the grace and prominence of Lagos state, before your APC politicians brought their sadness and sorrow into the Nigerian political space.

Bola Tinubu has known this family for ages. In times like this you visit your friends to commiserate with them, irrespective of political affiliation.

The truth OP is that you did not have a farthing in your pocket to make that purchase. It was a very deliberate and childish act on your part. You blocked her because you knew that your lie had expired.

It happens all the time with people like you who window shop online. Rather than look and end it there, you contact the seller acting as if you want to buy, bringing up the hope of the seller and finally dodging the seller.

The Lady too is an inexperienced seller. You must ensure that your buyer is serious and committed. You must have phone numbers of haulage drivers, so you do not go on a wasted journey.

Car TalkRe: Evidence INNOSON Vehicles Are Made In China. Pixs by Cantonese: 1:32pm On Feb 06, 2022
ViperAda:
You still huffing and puffing around on your myopic argument. How does having designers erase the fact that innoson is an assembly plant?. Assembly plants do have their own designers na. Are you joking or outrightly ignorant. I have addressed the issue of branding earlier. I can't keep going round with you on that.

-Viper
Ok Mr. Sabi.

Thankfully we all agree that Innoson motors only assembles and markets their vehicles ONLY IN THEIR NAME.

Let’s leave Innoson for now and clarify things:

1. You market a particular product and you find that it is popular in the market. Preferably a daily use product. You decide (like Mike Adenuga did with tinned Tomato in 1981) to manufacture it locally. You get to China, get the equipment together to start a manufacturing plant. You put together your factory in Nigeria, source your materials from wherever you choose, produce your brand, sell and become a household name. How is it that you have become a subsidiary of the Chinese company? How then did Adenuga’s business here become a subsidiary of the company where he got his equipments from? Note that there are thousands of manufacturers here in that mould.

2. Next I choose to import from an OEM in China or any other Asian country. They produce in my brand name and I happily market my products locally here. I get my trademark, so that jealous and tribal people like you will not steal it. I rely on the OEM for my products. I have a choice to get other other OEM companies (because OEMs are not reliable), as long as they can manufacture my specification. Am I not in this case at the wimps and caprices of the Chinese OEM? What if they fail me when I need them most.

3. Again oga Sabi, you can choose to register a company in China or any other Asian country of your choice and start off a factory. You can manufacture products and ship your products to Nigeria and other countries for sale. What can you be called here?

4. You can choose to partner with a Chinese company to establish a factory in this country, produce and market your products here. How can you be addressed?

Hopefully oga, you have read some of the possibilities. Well if you have not experienced it practically, you can only thrive in speculation and ignorance. Your ignorance can only be a product of hatred arising from nothing, that you grew up with.

Now back to Innoson:
Car assemblies have designers just as there are designers who stand-alone.

If Innoson is a subsidiary, where is the parent company? Why does he go by the name Innoson instead of proudly maintaining the parent name? How can you say that Honda motors as a parent company and popular as it is, will give another name to its subsidiary in another country? Bros you dey think at all?

As an organization of its own, with its own trademark and brand name, with its own Assembly plant, what stops Innoson from getting components from organizations of its choice to assemble its brand and market?

Please do not give yourself away as an “educated illiterate”.

What you do not know and have not experienced l, please listen and ask questions for proper information.

Bro, see eh

I have no problem with an Igbo man

I do not have any single hate for any Igbo man

I will never support a Genocide against any Igbo man

The price difference between Innoson vehicle and the one made in China is so far apart

People do scream about how Dangote cement is more expensive in Nigeria than other African countries.

If the Government give people the chance to import cement, do you think Dangote sales won't fall?

I do try my possible best to buy made in Nigeria things.

Please I have no problem with any Ibo man and I want this country to be a great one.

Have a good day bro.
That’s why we must push for price control.

That’s why government must allow trade to thrive and unfair advantages taken away from certain manufacturers.

That’s why competition must be allowed to thrive.

Dangote and BUA in the cement sector readily come to mind.

With Dangote/PAN, choices increase for Nigerians.

Innoson is just one company.

Painfully the looters of the economy get away with it daily. Stolen wealth is taken to other countries and stacked in banks; used in purchasing properties and making the economies of those countries stronger.

Our local manufacturers must be praised and encouraged. Even the little manufacturers matter.

Cheers.
