He was arrested not abducted.

Omo Igbo, move back to your evil jungle and stop wailing and crying about Lagos daily.
You promised to jump inside the Lagos Lagoon if Tinubu becomes President. Don't show your true color as a coward and do the needful.

Serious Political business..

That's how politics is played in this part of the world
That's why Trump had his own daughter in his govt as the US rep to the UN? His son-in-law was also representing the US in trade agreements.
JFK had his brother as the Attorney General of the whole US while he was in Govt.

There are many more examples of such appointments all over the US, at least I'm very familiar with the system here. Many many paddy paddy appointments, so it's not peculiar to Nigeria or Africa alone.

Nonsense.

I'm from Lagos state, I know so many people in high places in the Govt of Lagos from my very hometown from very poor background.

I know perm secs, PAs, directors, and commissioners that I went to school with in my town that are now in the govt. Almost all didn't come from a life of privilege.

None of what you alleged here was said by me, so remind me who's posting "rubbish trash" and being delusional again?
Those are false narratives that I'm combating here daily. How is protesting against genocide considered to be antisemitism? It's complete and utter rubbish and lacks any basis in logic. It's just a way to demonize those protesting against the unjust apartheid terrorist state of Israel. The world has seen the atrocities and genocide in Gaza. The world will never forget. They will pay for their crimes against humanity, sooner or later.
Politics › Re: Government Palliative Worsening Food Inflation - CBN Governor, Cardoso by CommonSense1967: 2:42pm On May 03, 2024
I have always been against all these food and other palliative measures. They only lead to worse inflation.
Even here in the US, the same thing happened.
When Joe and Trump gave away money for free yanfun yanfu during and after Covid, it only increased inflation in the food and housing sectors.
The house that people used to buy in the Atlanta metro for 300k is now going for 500 to 600k.
Most can't even afford these houses anymore and rent has gone through the roof. Houses that I used to rent out for 1k are now going for as high as 1700 to 2k in neighborhoods that I cannot live in.

It's always a better idea to plow such money into capital projects such as the Lagos Calabar road. That will have a trickle-down effect because people will be employed to build such projects, materials will be bought locally, and businesses in that area will see an increase in sales hence will have to hire more people to manage the increase in business. This will lead to a positive effect on the economy in the long run.
But politicians like to give quick and short-term good feelings to their constituents which they will suffer for in the long run.

Freedom of speech doesn't include destruction of public properties and other acts of violence while you're doing it

There are laws against antisemitism, racism and so on.
Stop posting rubbish trash.

Protesting against genocide is not protesting against Jews in general. The narrative that protesting the genocide in Gaza is protesting against Jews is the most asinine delusional ignoramus reasoning that I have ever heard.
Foreign Affairs › Re: More Than 2,000 Pro-Palestinian Protesters Arrested Across US Campuses by CommonSense1967: 2:21pm On May 03, 2024
There's no freedom of speech in the US anymore.

Freedom of speech only applies as long as you are towing the approved line.
I have lived here for almost 40 years, I know.

They are beating and arresting students who are protesting peacefully and not blocking roads.

The US has lost the moral right to advice anyone about human rights.

Indians , Africans, philppines etc in very high numbers are queing to come to ISRAEL to replace the Palestines in Israeli farms.
Their numbers far exceeded what was needed in ISRAEL.

ISRAEL took off the palestines because investigation revealed many of them were involved directly and indirectly in tgw oct 7 massacre.
Clown. I know of at least 2 Nigerians who used to live in Israel. They were treated worse than dogs.

Everything Negative is always from the North. It is always dominated by the North

A very backward region
Saleh Fatima Alkali did not forge her result. She did not boast about it. She did not even publish it, She also did not compare herself to others. And did not gloat. She just scored perhaps the highest mark in the JAMB UTME Examination, and remained humble and modest. It was others who exposed her and praised her.

Apart from Fatima, at least 12 other Northerners also scored above 300. However, they did not make noise after making news. They simply praised God for His benevolence and went about their daily Jihad of self-conquest and self-development.

We can all learn something about Northern Arewa culture from Fatima.

Northerners, especially the Hausas, were literate, clothed and on horses five hundred years ago. They have also been going to Mecca on pilgrimage for the last 800 years.

And they were seasoned naval aviators thousands of years ago. The Dufuna canoe, excavated in Yobe State (incidentally, Fatima is from Yobe) is 8,500 years old, and is the second oldest canoe ever discovered on Earth.

That they do not boast about money does not mean Northerners are poor. The wealthiest man in Nigeria is a Hausa man, Aliko Dangote. His great-grandfather, Alhassan Dantata, was the wealthiest person, not just in Nigeria, but in West Africa.


Since the creation of Nigeria in 1914, there has NEVER been a time when the richest Nigerian was not a Northerner.

Yet, no Northerner has ever declared himself king of money in Hausa or any other language!

That they do not boast about inventiveness does not mean they are not inventive. Alhassan Dantata was not only the wealthiest man in West Africa in his day, but he was also the inventor of the famous groundnut pyramids a hundred years ago.

Jelani Aliyu, a Fulani, is the only person of Nigerian origin to have achieved international prowess in designing cutting-edge electric vehicles, including the Chevrolet Volt and the Pontiac G6.

In terms of Western education, especially the medical profession, they produced one of the world's best cardiologists, in the person of Jibril Aminu, a professor of cardiology.

And in terms of beauty, their women surpass any other in Nigeria.

Unlike empty barrels, who are so boastful, arrogant, without any sense of moderation and exultant in hubris to the extent that they look down on others when they are intoxicated by an achievement, mutanen Arewa tend to be modest even in the height of their accomplishments. Which is why God has seen it fit to entrust power to them.

“God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.”-James 4:6.


May God bless Arewa
May God bless Nigeria

These are the consequences of getting the wrong leadership to steer the affair of a nation. The Maesrt issue is opening the eyes of many potential investors. No sane person or country will commit itself to investment it business in a country with known cr!minals at the helm of affairs.

No good country leadership spend its scarce resources looking or chasing for investment while it is destroying existing ones. Provide the right leadership and conducive enabling environment and see investors pursuing you.
Your retardation is on another level. So you expect every possible investor to invest when you ask them to? Obviously, you are as clueless as the Agulu packaged fraud that you are supporting blindly.
Not all potential investors will invest in your portfolio, some will and some won't. Some will see your vision while some will not.
That's why even the best ideas in the world are not seen as good ideas by everyone.
Some of the best inventions in the world today where at one time laughed at by some potential investors. You and your likes are dumber than jellyfish grin grin

funny of you to think that road will be completed in the next 50 years time. Y'all don't see that this is just another money laundering scheme by government? Plus I don't think anyone will leave his country and travel to Nigeria just to see a coastal road😒
Just because your Gbajue warlord was unable to get anything accomplished in his 8 years in office doesn't mean that Tinubu cannot get it done. So far, he has a record of starting innovative projects and getting them accomplished in the long run. 700 km is a long road, it will not be completed overnight but it's a start.
People will not come to look at the coastal road, but the coastal road will bring more developments to those shorelines from Lagos to Calabar with more beach businesses, hotels, resorts, and the like. I travel around the world for such views, why can't we have such in Nigeria?
