In 1985 the federal government under Maj gen Muhammad Buhari made a decision against Umaru Dikko. When there was no simple way to get Dikko back to Nigeria to face corruption charges they tried to kidnap and smuggle him back to Nigeria.

Can that same process not be tried now, at least to bypass the diplomatic passport mumbo jumbo. They can send Fsars there, abi?

Na suggestion I bring o. Afterall there has been a lot of highhandedness and abuse of power in Nigeria since 2015.

Is it that Nigeria company owners dont trust Nigerians at all?
Employ a Nigerian into your company and the next he is looking for means of getting the entire purse of the company! Figures will be inflated for contracts, jobs will be shabbily done, nepotism and tribalism will start, they take advantage of women, frustrate you, etc. Foreigners receive their wages, face their jobs and do their best.

Can imagine what trump is going thru now
Certainly this will negatively affect the reelection of Donald Trump. I am one of his stunch supporters though. I support him doing all that he can to stop foreigners invading his country. African leaders should copy Paul Kagame by making their economies and societies better for their people. This certainly will keep their people from wandering from country to country.

In times like this a good leader has soothing words for his people. Those words show the people that the president continues to be their man. Unfortunately Trump has failed woefully.

Hopefully Americans whether blacks, whites, latinos, Asians will ensure that justice is done and equality is effected in the country.

She is an Igbo woman from Ogwashi Uku, Delta state. Ogwashi Uku is an Igbo speaking tribe but found in Delta state in the Niger Delta region. Her husband is from Abia state.

Kudos to the president for this kind gesture. At least, Igbos can now let us rest on this forum. Those among them praying for the downfall of Adesina simply because he’s from the south west can now get preoccupied with praying for their Igbo daughter’s success.

I can also bet nobody will talk about nepotism on this thread. The fact that the president withdrew support from Yonov Agah, a Nigerian from the north central and now supports an Igbo lady should not go unnoticed. If it was the other way round, the fury of hell fire would be a child’s play to what they would bring down tonight. I wish her the best in the election.
What a shame. So what do you think? Between Okonjo Iweala and Agah, who has better chances? Between Okonjo Iweala and South West candidates including Adesina who has better chances to secure the seat for Nigeria?

My friend in arriving at that conclusion, the APC led government weighed its chances and looked at opportunities available for Nigeria in WTO? Look there was no way the government would make the wrong choice and risk looking such an important opportunity to another country.

Okonjo Iweala's credentials intimidate the biggest names in the federal cabinet. She has connections with presidents and leaders in the economies of other countries. Buhari cannot have such an opportunity to work with such a person - he has been looking for it since the inception of APC government - and lose it.

She will get the seat by the grace of God.

Political alignments and realignments as they say. Odubu will not win but he will join what is called "Association of past contestants". He will also claim that his supporters will support a particular candidate. He will get assurances. If his candidate wins, money and position don come. That's why he gambled the 22.5m.

forget PDP if pastor Ize Iyamu will be the consensus candidate of APC


and when I say he will be under Oshiomole control, I'm saying this with political foresight. the lawmakers will be under Oshiomole control and how can a Governor do as he like if the lawmakers are not under his control? except of course if he hijacked the majority once he's elected which I doubt will be possible
Dear friend, in politics everything is possible. The failure of the state assembly gave the national assembly the opportunity to act in its place. Obaseki does not have authority in such matters. He was supposed to make the proclamation and the division between him and Oshiomole revealed itself to all with members showing which side of the divide they belong.
APC always seems disjointed and full of political errors. You'd wonder why an APC led federal government has failed to take control in such a matter that involves an APC state.

Ize Iyamu is not someone that can be controlled or manipulated by Oshiomole. Ize Iyamu is his own man with his own loyalists. His membership of APC is an added advantage to the APC.

The angel that you know is better as they say. The fundamental problem between Oshiomole and Obaseki clearly has to do with the state treasury. Nothing stops a godson from aspiring to be a godfather.

Whichever way it goes Oshiomole will lose some political strength.

Once again I caution, do not write off PDP. Oshiomole has been leaving APC very vulnerable with his misadventures. PDP will always find ways to defeat them. Truly bro PDP is more politically calculated than APC.

even the blind one knows Obaseki will lose Edo primary election. if he win, these are the consequences


1. Oshiomole will lose his political prestige in Edo

2. Oshiomole will lose some APC loyalist to Obaseki's camp

3. Obaseki will worked against his APC national chairmanship again

4. this will mark the end of godfatherism again

5. the lawmaker that was not inaugurated will have no choice than to reconcile themselves with Obaseki


this is a last straw for Oshiomole and he will fight it with his last blood. if Obaseki lose primary

1. he won't want to go down alone as he will fight back

2. Oshiomole political prestige will have more strength

3. Obaseki will lose some loyalist

4. Oshiomole will have the legislation in his custody as the reason Obaseki refused to inaugurate the other majority lawmakers

5. The consensus candidate will be under his control



Edo APC primary election is going to be like general election, anyone that win the primary will win the state election as PDP the opposition are so disorganized and lack political manipulation
"The consensus candidate will be under his control". Are you referring to Pastor Ize Iyamu in this case? If you are, I'd like you to note that Oshiomole can only be a footstool to the manifestation of Iyamu's ambition. Do not forget that politics is about interests. Iyamu decamped because of his political interest and the only reason Oshiomole picked him is that of all the potential candidates in Edo state, only Iyamu can match Obaseki as it stands today. Oshiomole's interest too came into it.

I confidently tell you today that if by any chance Iyamu wins, they will return to square one. Either way it goes, the days of Oshiomole's godfatherism has gone. After all the insults, etc, do not expect Iyamu not to pay Oshiomole back in his own coin.

Oshiomole stated that he taught Obaseki and Shuaibu what they know today and that supposedly included how to deal with your godfather.

For me if PDP manages to put their acts together, the state will return to PDP.

So in other words.. they might still remove both PDP governor and deputy governor and reinstate which party. Because APC deputy governor dont have certificate PDP self forge certificate..

Dem swear for deputy governors in Bayelsa state. Na wa oo
Have you not wondered why the sudden change of heart by the lawyers to the deputy governor? Why did they withdraw the motion? The DSS man gave evidence after receiving response from their request to NYSC showing that the amendment was made by NYSC at the request of the deputy governor. The amendment was a change of one of the alphabets in his name and it was legally done. With that confidence it can be clearly seen that the deputy governor will win.

That case in Bayelsa state is a typical example of "the voice of Jacob but the hand of Esau"; that is APC backing LM and waiting to hijack the seat through the backdoor.

Did he even read that tweet before posting it?

"My baby is having a baby". Mumu man who has not only deceived a beautiful girl with great potential into marrying an Agadi ekwe nka like him.
Jealousy, bitterness, anger, lack will never let people like you reason properly. If she chose to be a housewife how does it trouble you? The fame that she attained, how sud you contribute to it? When she started acting and gettinf popular, did you play any part? Infact how many of her movies did you pay to get. I bet you watched all for free.

"Agadi ekwe nka". Is it not a practice in the east where you come from for old men whether rich or poor to marry teenagers and young adult ladies? How many have been so castigated in bad light like Ned Nwoko? What is the business of the likes of you what the young woman chooses to do with her life? Mr. Financial adviser mind your own business and face your own life.

RomanceRe: No Sex Before Marriage Is A Scam by Cantonese: 10:37pm On May 30, 2020
BobbyHammar:
Anybody who still believe in the scam of no sex till marriage needs to get their head checked. If only you know how many marriages have been destroyed or are still suffering because of this, you will never think of falling for such a scam.

What baffles me is those who keep going to church but yet don't know anything about bible and will keep deceiving themselves that sex before marriage is a sin (WHICH YEYE SIN).

Many will say it's formication but they don't even know the true meaning of fornication as referred to in the bible. Take for example when Joseph was dating Mary, yes we agree she was still a virgin because it was their own decision not to have sex yet but how many people realized that there were other young women that existed then as well. Many had boyfriends too and some had sex with their boyfriends while some didn't because Mary wasn't the only virgin.

The bible never condemned those that had sex with their boyfriends before marriage but it was just the divine choice of the Father to select a virgin rather than a lady that had sex already.

Let's stop all these brohaha low African mentality of calling sex before marriage a sin. God only sees a clean and a pure heart, not who had sex when or how. You all should better respect yourself and save the doctrine of marriage by testing the waters to ensure you are ready to sail on that water for the rest of your life. Not after marriage you start looking for divorce because penis is too big or too small or maybe Virgina is too tight or too wide or its always one minute sex.

Haba.
Even all you said do not make sense. Take your time to read through again. If it makes any sense to you then I will talk about it further with you and open your eyes appropriately.

Tons of loosers.
What tables have turned please? What do you even know little child?

Hopefully Igbo matter will not lead you to hang yourself.

Unfortunately Edo state has so many uncouth youths like you parading themselves all around the world and ruining whatever image Nigeria has left as a country.

Will you not first remove the log in your eyes before you take off the speck in another's? Between the Igbos with a landmass and population spanning 7 states and one single Edo state made up of a few unagreeable tribes, which is cursed? Looking at Edo state as a whole, where are the economic landmarks and achievements that you can point to in comparison with the entire Igbo areas or even individual states?

How many communities in Edo state can the citizens confidently venture into their farms? Farms of Edo people are daily seized by the same Fulani herdsmen, females like you have been raped and killed right in front of their children and husbands. Uncountable Edo men have been beheaded and the entire country has joined in one voice to condemn the wicked acts of Fulani herdsmen. Your famed charms and fetish powers have not stopped the invasion of Edo lands as they have been totally overrun. I bet you that you cannot even venture to your little village in Edo out of fear of either herdsmen or witches. Mention your village in Edo and I will confidently give you the situation report.

Edo is not a problem to the Igbos and will never be. A few reckless children like you must be cautious of the words you say on the social media.
