Ase oro. Was omisore in adeleke's camp when he defeated both oyetola and omisore at d last pools? And mind you,d gap this time around will be so huge cos the over 100k votes omisore got d last time are coming bk to pdp cos they re PDP votes,not sdp. Sdp has no such members in osun, so d 100k votes is coming bk to pdp. Omisore is inconsequential in the equation rt nw

Omisore defeated who?

E be like say this man dey vex, this one he no dance to collect the certificate.

He must have realized that people mock him for dancing too much and no one takes a dancer seriously. Na mumu de dance like that.

Why do most criminals in the southwest have muslim names? 90% of them are. Something wrong in the upbringing.

Waliu Abd Razaq and Iliaz Abdul Razaq

we have pastors even committing the most heinous crimes in the region here. Those who commit crimes in your region are not Muslims too, you donkey.

Kingosytex:
Politics is a very dirty game. Umahi actually helped this PDP to power. After the latter's ill fated reign as the Executive Chairman of Afikpo North Local Government Area where killings and untold robberies were the order of the day, he was excommunicated by the people of Afikpo.

He contested rather vainly for the senatorial seat but rejected by his people, after failing on one of those occasions, he went to the elders and cried bitterly. He spoke to the elders in parables and asked them what he's done exactly that can't be forgiven or that made his own people to reject him for an external body.

After much pleas, he was forgiven. The guy as already seriously broke, his cars were spoilt and littered in his compound. He was only left a hummer bus that he used to cruise around town. The situation was very pathetic.

To cut the long story short, Umahi came to his rescue. Rumours has it that he obtained the ticket of the HOR courtesy of the money Umahi gave him and the rest is history

Na story be this o..

Who's the guy you're referring to in your story? The story no clear. It seems the subject of your story is pdp.

We are frantically on top of the matter. We would like to also use this medium to appeal to the family of the victims to please carry us along in any conversation with these hoodlums,” Oyeyemi pleaded.

Stupid Nigerian Police. They had to announce to the kidnappers, their partners in crime, that the case is before them so they can put the lives of those kids further in danger.

A terrorist will always find a way to justify bombing

Just like you justified the bombing of Iraq, Libya and others right?

Benny6944:
Your just a stack illiterate. just read and do not comment.


Keep mocking yourself.STF. You think its easy to wage war against opponent with air and ground raid when you only have ground troopers, with limited fighter jet.


He said if they can't close the sky, they can lend them fighter jets. how does that sound to you ignoramus?


85% of Russian troops are already in Ukraine, which is more than 200k, do you think Ukrainians haven't killed more than they estimated? all the commanders killed why didn't Russia call it fake news?

you can't call someone illiterate without being able to write the right word here.

Just see as you de lie to yourself. 85% of Russian troops are in Ukraine.

Russia never hid their casualties but the thing is, the man said to be winning the war is the one crying. Haven't they destroyed over 6k Russian thanks?

franchasng:
Honestly I don't understand why Muslims, especially Yoruba Muslims are so excited that Russia invaded and bombing Ukraine without a humanly justifiable reason.


Dear reasonable Yorubas, you guys need to wake up oh, the Muslim fanatists amongst you are hell bent on turning Yoruba land to Syria.



Imagine them up there cursing Zelensky and blaming him for a war he didn't start.


Most of them don't even have full knowledge of the crises. How do you expect a President of another soverign nation to happily and willingly sign that part of his country (Creamea) you forcefully seized from him and annexed since 2014 to amen his nation's constitution to accept that that annexed region belongs to you Russia? As if that's not enough, you sponsored more regions (Doneskt and Luhansk) to breakaway and you also want Ukraine President to formally acknowledge those two regions as independent regions and that Ukraine will never lay claim on them ever again. A President like you, how is all these possible without negotiations and some agreements? Because of that you leveled several accusations against them and just invaded them killing both military and civilians and yet some foolish inhumane souls are cheering Putin on just cos of religion.


Russia never agreed boldly that if Ukraine do this they would attack. There was still negotiations going on since last year. Putin promised the world that he won't attack Ukraine that there was no reason to, that his military were only carry out routine drills.


NATO this and that, Ukraine haven't joined NATO and its not as if NATO would have accepted Ukraine that wanted to join with a huge military burden. And joining NATO doesn't even take months, it takes some countries years to fully comply with the requirements just like joining European Union.



And if Putin had a justifiable reason to invade Ukraine why is he telling Russians in Russia lies that he only went there to help Ukraine defeat Fascists and Neo Nazi militants? Why cant he be bold enough like every other country to show Russians the wonderful work Russian military is doing in Ukraine? Why is he blocking news channels and free media from showing live video streaming of the invasion of Ukraine to Russian citizens in Russia?


Yet inhumane, heartless Nigerians on this forum who are mostly Muslims are rejoicing over this and cursing, blaming and shutting Ukrainian President up, to what benefit?



This is really disturbing.


This injustice some of you are foolishly cheering, be careful, life is mysterious more than you ever think. Dont think you are in a safe haven, before you support inhumanity against fellow humans think twice, life is beyond what you think or see

to spot a stupid Nigerian, you'll see them bring religion and tribe into any discussion.

You're a fool. The injustice and hypocrisy of the west is what we all question, something hard for donkeys here to do.

Kastonkastroll:
This comedian is hell bent on dragging nato/eu into this war. Like the fool wants a worldwar 3 to start. Why do I have a feeling that the comedian is not even in kiev as the western propaganda wants us to believe

I don't know what he's doing in office granting interview - he's no more on bullet-proof vest and leading the war from the front? They thought it was a thing for media show and they must have realized by now that it's not. Where are the Klitchikos and those celebrities who took up arms too? I heard one was killed a few days ago.

Zelensky had the chance to finish this war before it started, but he blew it. It's a sad situation.

gistmega:
We live in a country in which citizen rejoice when a law enforcer dies. It is not a coincidence given the litany of crimes committed by the policemen.

The biggest evil in Nigeria are the supporters of these politicians. By the time the mobs go against the supporters who are the spine of these politicians, thins will change. If any Tinubu supporter is burnt alive or given cement to drink, others will rethink. There is no need why a man who cannot type 25 words per minute to hold any office in Nigeria.

Nigerians are industrious. If there were steady power, many inventors would have invented magnificent things that could rake in billions of dollars. Buhari will leave this country broke and broken. He has killed every dam sector in the country. Even drovers and killed and slaughter because of the divide that Buhari had created.

I hope al the assets of those Nigerian Oligarchs be frozen too. Freeze all their stole loots

you're even more dangerous to be left with a phone if you think somebody should be burnt alive for supporting Tinubu. Be careful of what you wish on others, it might befall you.

Imagine the woman selling okpa in your street banning you from coming to her shop. Meanwhile there are 18 other okpa shops in the same street you patronize before coming to hers.

so, Mr economist, in your tilted estimation, it's only Russia that benefits from trade relations with the UK? It's both ways.

neuf:
Simple questions, una no go answer instead you will run around the Bush up and down.

when has NATO attacked Russia? no answer

Do you Know Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania? All former USSR member states. All sharing border with Russia yet they are all in NATO but no missiles are being placed there. So why should they suddenly want Ukraine just to place missiles there.
The same Ukraine that they rejected their request to join in 2008. Abi missiles wasn't invented in 2008?

to talk with you guys is like talking to a brick wall. No sense of reasoning critically at all but will be the first to talk about unbiased perspective.

I'm sure down the line you'll say western propaganda

are there native Russians in those countries you mentioned? Is Russian spoken in those countries? Ukraine is more strategic to Russia than those countries you mentioned.

If Ukraine wasn't part of NATO, why did they join the alliance to invade Iraq?

ekevwe:
Kindly check Russia inflation rate for a war that's half scaled presently. Check and see it's far higher than present Nigeria inflation rate. UK is just 7%.

It's a simple mathematics. Russia will start feeling the hits. Their citizens will come out to protest soon.

War lost already. Watch and see. I am not a prophet but this I have seen

you're not seeing anything. Putin prepared for the aftermath of his invasion than the west did - I'm sure they didn't think their own sanctions will reverberate.

ManirBK:
Jesuck people

don't allow the fools to guide you astray. Wallahi Jesus(AS) is ours and we love and believe in him as a prophet of Allah just like we believe and love prophet Muhammad(s.a.w).

Triplerg:
There is nothing like communism in the world. It only exists on paper. Why do you think there are many oligarchs in Russia? Is that consistent with communism? Russia will suffer leading to Putin ouster

Lol. Russians know better.

dataking:
You idiots thing anyone against hypocrisy is because of religion. Bigot

got bless you. I didn't even see your reply before I told him about his stupidity. Is Russia not more of a Christian nation?

So China is siding with Russia because of religion too. India is neutral because of religion too. Stupid kids on nairaland narrow everything down to their Nigeria religious level of stupidity.

Pgateway:
What is your religion?

This fight has shown that religion is the reason for various types of support

everyone supporting Russia is a Muslim,right? But Russia is more of a Christian nation.

I'm a Muslim and I support Russia not because they're Russians because of the hypocrisy of the world. If America can invade Iraq on lies of Sadam having WMD and made a once prosperous country useless, then it's right for Russia to invade Ukraine for their national security.

If we justify or condemn actions based on who's the aggressor or victim, then we've lost it. Why's Isreal not sanctioned for crimes against humanity in Palestine? Oh they're jews. Why's China not sanctioned for how they treat uyghur Muslims?

You guys are all hypocrites.

OreMI22:
Lol......Russia is imposing sanctions on USA.

The sanction thing works like a fight between a billion-dollar conglomerate and a tiny company.
Using Nigeria as an instance, Dangote conglomerate can stop buying sugar cane from a major farmer in Jos, and also influence other buyers not to buy the farmer's produce. To make up the shortfall, it could invest in farmers in Cameroon or Benin to supply it with Sugar cane.

Of course the farmer can fight back by refusing to buy Dangote cement for his one-room shack construction project. However in reality, Dangote can ruin the farmer by blocking 100% of its income while the farmer cannot even hurt 1% of Dangote's business in Jos alone.

Russia is about the size of Texas's economy. Worse still, it is not as innovative as Japan in high-tech goods critically needed in the USA. Therefore, it has almost nothing EXCEPT GAS! Unfortunately, it cannot afford to stop selling its oil and gas because 100% of its income comes from there too. Not to mention that USA has its own abundant oil and gas supplies too.

you're illusioned to think of the situation like this. You guys are funny.

Ogbuefi2020:
US is already feeling the heat, and Europe too

don't mind the mumu on nairaland.

BKayy:
Told you so. The West shot themselves on the foot by trying to repeat the same move they used on the Soviet Union and other Communist/Socialist they destroyed.

The West is losing even though Russia haven't started her own sanctions. You can't beat a player in his own game. Communism as a philosophy was designed to withstand economic hardship. Remember Biblical Joseph policy in Egypt
The only way to beat communism is by infiltrating into the minds of the masses with propaganda like they have successfully rendered Africans eternal slaves but it won't work in Russia where most don't like Western media.

Economic sanctions doesn't work on Communist countries, this is why North Korea is still alive and more developed than 80% of Capitalist countries. Communism as a philosophy is designed to protect the poor man at the expense of the greedy ones. This is total opposite of what Capitalism preaches which is for the few rich to live on the blood of the poor masses. If you can't deceive the masses to rise against a communist leader, you can't scratch the country.
The attack on Russian Oligarchs is merely teaching Russia the full meaning of Communism. Thereby doing the masses a favour

This is the end of Capitalism. If Putin didn't figure out how to bypass the trick, he wouldn't have invaded Ukraine.

Goodluck to Europe as they are about to buy gas 10 times more price as they used to buy it before, thanks to their own sanction on Russia. It is either they find a way to use Africa to fill the quota at the expense of Africans or watch themselves die.

****This is for those asking after North Korea. For a country to have the capability to develop Nuclear weapons despite the sanctions, that means that she is no longer in the league of average countries. Below is not Heaven, it is the picture of Pyongyang, North Korea.

Spot-on!!!

I'm happy Putin is trying to make sanctions being the most strong tool of the United States to lose its potency.

ttmacoy:
He is a hero to his people? Really?

Hero ko hero ni. He is dictator simple. No one should be in power for over 20 years, NO ONE so pleas drop the hero bullshit.

Africa should stop being life support and step-up, continue to use colonization for an excuse is the reason why we will continue to be the footmat of the world. Look at China in how any years and we are still there playing the blame game.

Again all you have said does not justify anything Putin is doing today so stop trying to link it back to colonization.

No one should be in power more than 20 years? Oga, close it there. If anyone comes and bring us out of our economic doldrums, he should rule us for 50 years. Democracy is useless to us. We need dividends and not democracy that hasn't given us anything.

You guys said this in Libya, Syria and Iraq... Where are they right now?

Those loyal to France who have served upward of 35 years are still in power in Africa.

CAPITALBEE:
Lol... Bros, I don't need any political scientist to explain these things to me. I am also politically savvy.
No matter how much you try to sugar coat things, I still won't agree with that specific part of your initial post which I quoted.

The truth is this, Picture doesn't really show the reality on ground... You see that tallest building in the picture you attached there is a ghost of itself and in fact a disaster waiting to happen! It's just for decoration during celebrations and holidays, the only thing that building can boast of is a telecom mast for network coverage. Even that one sef, the contract go soon expire. The closest thing you can use to convince me with respect to the subject is Economic data.

As at today, Venezuela that is in an economic turmoil is still better in terms of economic metrics compared to North Korea. Let's not deceive ourselves.

North Korea is still alive because it is a sovereign nation that can't be killed and the government is thriving so hard to prove the doubters wrong. North Korea is not more developed than 80% of capitalists countries. If you have the data, prove me wrong, I am an avid learner.

give them space to operate and you'd see what they'd become. Let them live. What they have endured, no western nations can survive that in a month.

Give them space. USA should stop sanctioning people and allow people to determine their own destiny.

Voldoz:
US is not forcing anybody to do anything.

Moreover you just day talk rubbish if not for these people by now all these nonsense you for no type am cause this same character of yours na make Nigeria day where e day. Everything western propaganda as if na them send you make you no get your own propagandas where Nigeria day when Singapore develop? Even the so called US was once colonized.

So don't spill trash.

Just say you hate US and you are an Al-Queeda member finish we go understand you.

reply with more points, not insult

Walkee:
I don't hate USA per se I personally think they're overrated and think too highly of themselves. Who gave them the power to be dishing out sanctions to everybody? Only them sanction Iran, Venezuela, China North Korea etc now that they are seeing fire they're now begging the same Iran and Venezuela they sanctioned before. What do they have that's giving them the morale to sanction people? What do they offer the world apart from entertainment and social media? You will soon realise how useless those technologies are when serious famine starts wreaking havoc globally

tell them. What has America done for us apart from wars and more wars and cheap lies to invade nations?

Sanction is their most powerful tool and they are about to lose its potency. They sanction countries not minding what ordinary citizens of those nations will be going through.

I pray fossil fuel stand relevant forever so we can have what to hold the world with.

anonymous1759:

Everybody will collect at the end of the day. Western media as crippled people's thinking. They think the west and her allies are invincible and indispensable.

They can't ask themselves one simple question . How is North Korea and Iran has been surviving with sanctions for years without dying or going into extinction .
If those countries can survive And still be producing Nuclear weapons it means Russia will do even better.

Aside from the casualties In Ukraine I liked what Putin is doing putting the world to order with a balance of power .

Imagine the west controlling Football something that's meant to be Neutral.
How can the west also Control the court of HAGUE and you tell me the world is balanced.
Only weak leaders are executed on the ICC while the big boys are not touched after killing in Syria , Afghan , Libya etc. the world will never be a unipolar system .

I would like to see FIFA, UEFA and IOC fall for compromising their Neutrality. ICC should be scrap too until everyone stands equal before the law .

it's because of comments like this that I still come to Nairaland.

The world can't be unipolar - America should stop the bullying and seeing those who are not with them as enemies or seeing friends of Russia as their enemies.

FIFA would eventually break - they fined Abou Trika for writing 'Stop the war in Gaza', but didn't say anything about the player who wrote "stop the war in Ukraine ".

They said football should not be brought into politics and I don't know how they got on this war issue and politics.

Americans who killed, raped and destroyed cities etc, can't be tried in the Hague, but African leaders are tried.

Like I've always said, Putin knows the consequences of his actions before he invaded and has worked out survival plans with the sole aim of breaking the myth of power of sanctions. America is about to lose its powerful tool - sanctions.

I hate that people are dying in Ukraine(they followed the US and its allies to invade Iraq), but I stand with Putin - we all can't lick the western ass.

Mrkumareze:
Nothing works in this country, all my years of using train in abroad, I never heard or witness such.. Anything that enters nigeria automatically becomes useless

is this even a diesel drum? I think this is total engine oil.

Kokaine:
Russia has virtually been placed in a cage. It will not be too long before internally aggrieved Russians will team up to cause problems in the country. This banning thing no be here ooo... They locked the guy. He may soon become humble sha.

You guys are funny. Putin would hold Ukraine to the point that he'd use them to negotiate everything he wanted. In the last 30 years, Russians have never been so proud like they are now. For the first time, they're holding the world to ransom and everyone is at their feet. 13% of their reserve is in gold and other currency - so Putin prepared for this. You think he didn't know what was to come after invasion? They've exhausted everything now and the question is, is sanction an effective deterrent? No. And this was has proven that.

owagbeba:
All the Main Street media complexes are owned by the west. It runs the gamut from BBC to Twitter. Even the vassal states like Nigeria with English medium all tune in to the main western narrative.

Many in the world don’t understand Russian language, so the west have a great advantage.

Russian main English platform like RT.com is under constant DDoS attack. They have banned RT in Europe, main cable operators have dropped RT. That’s the extent of this information war.

Freedom of speech in the western world only exist when it is in their interest!

your last line summed everything up.

Winters23:
You've been manipulated by cnn

It's what they do. Whip up emotions and sentiments and they give you that worried looks while they go at it.

Bunch of actors and comedians

I don't even watch mainstream media for updates. I just go to YouTube.

Beermoney1:
Zelenskys lack of agreeing to a compromise would destroy Ukraine

that guy thinks governing a nation is comedy.

Zelensky does not want to go back to Russia to show he's neutral now because he feels his people go against him saying if neutrality could save the war, why didn't he do that in the first place and he allowed them to go to war with damage suffered before taking that step?

olaboy33:
Poland playing a very risky War business.

dem go collect from Putin. USA is avoiding Russia and Poland want to put them in direct confrontation and as smart as they are, they declined.

"we are not party to this war".

Lol... See Poland fa
