Tension flared in Lagos when a man confronted demonstrators who had gathered to demand urgent action over the abduction of schoolchildren and teachers in Oyo State. The dramatic exchange, captured on video, drew the attention of bystanders as the man repeatedly insisted that protests were not permitted at the location. The confrontation has since sparked widespread reactions online, with many Nigerians debating citizens' rights to peaceful assembly and the growing frustration over insecurity and the fate of the kidnapped victims.
I have a long term friend who lives in same situation right inside the parents villa but the difference with Uche is that he knows people are suffering and that people go to bed without a meal but he is in the middle of other friends who there parents are super rich too but who dont care. They can buy a wrist watch of 20k usd even for a GF but cant fund any start up no matter how lucrative or good the proosal looks. For me am training my children to have an idea of the business, know my challenges understand why I battle people on the phone most times during business calls and I always make them understand that the money they are eating,na people de under rain and sun de work for am!!! My goal is transfer that family wealth to them with the hope that they will grow it into the next generation.
Okoroemekah: trust me they don't know.i have lived for a while with such family and they will think you are mad if you tell them many people go to bed hungry.why will they not when one room in the mansion is a packing store for milk.tea.chocolate.sugar.butter.jam.infact everything for breakfast in cartons.while another room is for tinned foods.wine.yogurt.juice.another room has 5 deep frezzers.one for more than 15 types of soup.one for different types of stew.one for meat.one for fish.infact you might eat egusi soup and next time you will eat egusi again will be next week but you will eating soup everyday.they have rooms for shoes.rooms for suits.rooms for perfume and cosmetics. If the chairman is around and nepa takes light.if security start the sound proof it will not be off till the chairman leaves that house even if nepa brings light in the next hour or the chairman stays 3 days it will be on.nonstop until he leaves the house.what I witnessed was eye opening that I strongly believe some people are already in paradise on earth. Imagine my age mate that time had his own detached mansion in the compound with 3 servants and private beach overlooking the atalantic ocean.every child has his own mansion inside the compound. My God.amechi nwa ohafia your papa get money I beg.
Exactly my thoughts, where are his details? Even a major wont move in or around that zone without the needed escorts of atleast 4-10, talk more of a major general, unless he was on a coded runs/keep low profile if so why go with the wife?
Kalulu44: A rtd major general, where were his details? Infact I don't believe it, it's a lie. It was plan to undermine our Oga at the top govt. 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
And the same man wants to go to the senate(retirementplan). It baffles me how these guys send families to Europe and other beautiful places but refuse to replicate even half of what they see in the same abroad. Some states are so so unlucky in terms of leadership and ovun is one of them.
ariesbull: Ogun state and many south West state have terrible roads ...I don't know why that Ogun State is backward ...from villages to their cities ...yet they shout HIGHEST IGR yet they can't maintain their infrastructure from schools to Road...go to Its and Sagamu and see terrible roads drive to Abeokuta from Ota and weep
You have said it all and this is one fact that alot of people are missing about the Nigerian politics space. Gain is the word.
AMINDA: All Northern governors are in APC with the exception of Bala Mohammed. A Northerner is currently VP, Deputy Senate President and Speaker. Power is set to head back to the North worse case scenario in 2031. Do you think there aren't Northern politicians interested in waiting it out? I know you're a Tinubu supporter disguising but assuming you are not, why should the North support another Southerner other than Tinubu to power in 2027? What is the incentive to do so? It's a simple question. "Let Tinubu continue" is not a threat to the North that you lot think it is. The North made him President with 5.6m votes. Northerners are the biggest stakeholders in his government. It was the South that didn't vote for him. Like I said, in national politics, the only question that matters is "what's in it for my region?". It's not an emotional affair.
hope4nigeria: Haaaaaa propaganda, IRAN dare no fire at US war ship, I'm currently on Ajazira, the ship cross and IRAN did nothing, it's a bait to wipe IRAN and IRAN know it, you people will use propaganda finish IRAN trust me

Renovating/upgrading the airport is one strive but what about the hyenas as government officials who beg every passenger who tumble your luggage upside down even you already gone through the scan. The point is the airport officials are giving us a bad image especially in the eyes of foreigners.
Sim, should embark on more low cost housing estate for low income earners/civil servants. Site one in each LGA. The funds are available now, he started well but I understand that issues with Wike and Co travellers has made things challenging.
This is solution. No big deal. I invested heavily in tech, solar and etc 6 years ago immediately before covid. I am always away roughly 6 months in a year and my business with 31 staffs still run intact. Tech (softwares)/ trackers/ cameras, doing the work for me, all I do is, monitor activities with one button. How can 10M zoom right under your nose.
Akinpresident: If you tell this woman now to invest small money in tech so she can manage every aspect of her business, she'd feel you're out to rip her.
This should serve as a deterrent to all business owners.
Very possible. Am priviledge to do business with a number of old money,in Nigeria. I mean real old and still counting, these grandchildren are not just humble, they avoid the public appearances and they are really really quiet. This people pas 30BN gang.
lucane123: Well said.. The ability to remain humble when having money and power is a rare gift.
saintopus: It's OK hope that the appointment was approved by the FCT minister and the President otherwise a 10 year state of Emergency awaits the state 😀
you are not God,how can you say he will regret it. Is it your wish that things will go bad for them? Stop judging every situation by what you hear or read. I know marriages where the lady was relocated abroad and 15 years they are still waxing strong
naxee9294: Omooooorrrrrr big congratulations man Leaving this country is the greatest achievement of any nigerian! I have a question pls What about single person like me which route will be the best for me

Job is available,depends on what you look out for. For Food, just bring enough. Scottish people are very very accommodating. Our Scottish neighbors love naija jollof rice and dodo then kilishi
1. I don't understand what people mean by giant strides? Wike should so better, he us over hyped 2. Has settled pensioners since he assumed office. Wike should pay pensioners, they are dying slowly 3. What are the qualities of this project 4. Can this road last 10 years without cave in or pot holes? Poor quality of roads I bet they won't last 3-5years 5. With all the allocation where is employment, where is internal roads, where are the good schools and hospitals in river state? None. I am not a politician o neither am I supporting anyone but let us compare projects executed by the last administration to these one. The last government has roads they built that are still standing today e.g(elekahia, rumuomasi,old aba road,oginigba slaughter road and etc). This roads are over 12 years without any potholes o. Education, the last government built good schools and invested well In education but Wike has abandoned the same educational sector to die, what about the health centers? We all know Amaechi goofed with the monorail but he did far better than Wike in all rating. What's the use of 5 flyovers from garrison to artillery? Quality is poor, designs are not world class. Let me inform us that traffic will increase once this projects are completed because the designs are poor and will not correct the traffic wahala. Wike is overhyped.simple
solalal36: Hello Sir. Please how did you sort the flight issue? Did your flight stop at London and then take the train or flew direct? I'm in a similar situation sir
Either way is available, either flight train or even buses. Make I choice. I often do bus if I have to.
Handsomebeing: That’s the plan. I will buy a house once madam starts working and I have also started my business in Aberdeen. Our income can give us a decent house to pay off over a period of time. We came here with lots of food stuffs. Out of 10 checkin bags, 8 na food stuffs.
guy good plan you have there, as regard starting business, do reach out to me let's connect am a business man too
Onepeople: brother you are an insider, no need saying what you already know, he can't use the military against the north because nobody is going to implement the order. If it were to be the igbos there ,the military action would have been effective, if you know you know.
Exactly my point,several advise and opinion was put on the table as regards that market. 1. Hold a meeting with the two factions, give them 60-90 days ultimatum to resolve their internal issues (the internal crisis and lock down), also contributed to the increase in crime. 2. If unresolved, dissolve the two factions and appoint a those you wish to manage the place under the LGA 3. The presence of the army will definitely reduce the criminal activities no matter the connection with tribe.
fasterwell: Had it been we have state police that doesn't receive orders from Abuja then it would have been possible to arrest the criminals but unfortunately does Northern criminal elements fomenting trouble will always be protected by their brothers in the Nigerian police force
So the best option what's to demolish the place so that everybody will vacate the area
But the governor is using the same military that receive order from Abuja to deal with obigbo but cannot station the same military in that market area at least for 6-12 months to reduce amd stamo out the criminal activities. Everythin no b gra gra broda,we na insider, core insider.tak it from me,we sabi d drift
Onepeople: A lying governor, the local government lost the authority of that place to hands of the hausas doing business there ,their inability to impose tax and levies led to the interference and taken over by state government.
Stories flying around said mr tyrant has already converted it to his personal property.
This is the confirm info forget all this talk of criminal and hoodlums. As a governor will you now bring down every market you perceive have hoodlums or criminal activities? The same governor that got federal government army to deal with obigbo people cannot meet the same military to comb out the hoodlums in slaughter? If the army gets the kind of support/financial motivation that Wike offer them with regards to operations in obigbo for one week,all the criminal activities in slaughter will stop. Forget these excuse, some of us are key insider and we know the drift
