So Buhari had to travel all the way to Japan to tell his next door neighbor the reason he closed the border. Why didn't he just pick up a phone and call?

I wonder why Buhari 's mouth always runs like cholera everytime he travels, but once he he is back in Abuja he becomes deaf and mute

Topple govt with branded T-shirt and yellow beret

So it means that Sport Minister with red beret was actually planning to topple Buhari, that's why he was dropped. Ok. It all makes sense now

Uteghe:
Igbos have only one enemy: Igbos.

Very true

DennisEche:
Oyegun is 80 bubu is 76 yet bubu looks older

Just like OBJ, Buhari doesn't know his true age. At least OBJ is honest enough to admit it. All of Buhari's secondary school classmates are over 80 years.

Then why is Dangote not in the cabinet. He has more business to protect. When another govt not aligned with Buhari comes, UChe Ogah's businesses will be easy target . 5he guy is over-exposing his business to politics

SpecialAdviser:
To protect his investments.

They should ban this VAR. How can you reverse a goal scored 5 mins earlier because someone sitting in a dark room in front of screen has a brain wave after the match has already progressed?

They should not bring this VAR poo to Nigeria. Else, match results will be changed and 3 goals erased after someone has collected better egunje

Jamb Question #1 : How many libraries has Emeka Off or built in his own state or hometown?

Ans: 0

Jamb Question #2: Among igbo billionaires(Rochas Okorocha, Emeka Offor, Orji Uzor Kalu, Chief Arthur Eze, etc) , where does charity always begin?

Ans: Abroad

Same problem with Delta billionaires : Jim Ovia(Zenith Bank), The Ibru family, Tony Elumelu (UBA), Nduka Obaigbena (This Day and Arise TV ). Thier life begins and ends in Lagos. When they die, the import the corpse back home

zoba88:
Sir Dr. Emeka Offor was in Daura Kastina State to inspect the ongoing renovation and furnishing of Waziri Alhassan public library in Daura Kastina State which is 98% completed. The Governor of Kastina State, Aminu Bello Masari was also on sight to inspect the life impacting project.

The Waziri Alhassan library Daura is wearing a new look, tastefully renovated and modernized with its shelves fully stacked with qualitative, educative and informative books. Computers were also supplied and fully installed along with a standby generator and borehole. The renovation, furnishing and computerizing of the library came courtesy of Sir Emeka Offor Foundation (SEOF) as part of its educational intervention program in Africa. Sir Emeka Offor Foundation has given out books and computers worth over 22 million dollars to primary, secondary and tertiary institutions in Nigeria and 18 other African countries through its book distribution program. Other educational institutions in Kastina state had benefitted hugely from SEOF’s book distribution program in the past.

Da 1st ata eyen Uruan Inyang Atakpo! Yebap Uruan! konkonkon Ukpabio! iyayooooh! ndito ifot una deh here?

Funny greetings

I am really impressed by people orientated govt actions like this. I wish other state govts will copy things like this to alleviate the suffering and make life more conducive to the citizens

The solution is intracity train, metroline light rail network or tram that traverses all major roads and arteries. You cannot rely on bus system alone as mass transit in a huge congested mega city like Lagos.

Lagosians have Buhari to thank for cancellation of the metroline project which was fully paid for by previous civilian govt of Alhaji Lateef Jakande

This decision to cancel was taken at Supreme Military Council chaired by Maj Gen Buhari. Air Commodore Gbolahan Mudashiru, the military Gov of Lagos was simply instructed to announce it

AutoJoshNIG:
Lagos State, the most populous state in Nigeria, is one of the fastest-growing cities in the world. It is also considered as one of the world’s 36 mega-cities.

Lagos has one of the largest, most extensive, and busiest road networks in West Africa. Sadly, Lagos has an insufficient suburban train and some ferry services.

Transportation within the state is principally by road. This often leaves the internal roads and expressways congested at peak hours, due in part to the geography of the city, as well as its explosive population growth.

Shortly before the advent of the Lagos BRT, Lagos was regarded as the only megacity (defined by the UN as a city with a population of over 10 million) without any organized public transport system.

A new monorail system that is supposed to span the length of the Badagry expressway to Lagos Island is currently under construction.

Excellent advice. I thought I was the only one thinking this way. This is a clear case someone trying to marry a second wife, not cheating.

OP forget these NL feminists and chronic Mamachelors. Most of them don't have husbands. Don't abandon your marriage. Work things out with the help of a trusted Counselor. He might just abandon the idea of a second wife, who knows

Baselm:
Why would any sane person advise her to leave her matrimonial home, because the husband is emotionally attached to another lady?? All these NL oloshos forming feminist advice.
I will advise you to stay in your place and continue with whatever you have going on for you, channel your love to your child and get a job or face your business and continue to pray.
Focus more on your life than the prayers, it should be a side hustle.
If you must, confide in your pastor and parents to pray with you and probably counsel him.
Leave when your life is being threatened, otherwise don't leave, do the things that make you happy, he will come to his senses soon.

If you leave
1) you abandoned your home for someone else to take over. you have made them winners
2) you will deprive your child of the love of both parents.
3) as much as polygamy scares you, have you given having different baby Daddys a thought? or have you given being Single for a large part of your life a thought?

STAY FOR AS LONG AS YOU ARE SAFE AND FOCUS ON PERSONAL IMPROVEMENT, YOUR CHILD AND EVERYTHING THAT MAKES YOU HAPPY

I'm just amazed at how quickly women are so quick to dish out advice that the woman should pack out of her matrimonial home.

Some are chronic spinsters with many years of cognate experience with no husband in view. If they get to know OP's hussy, they will snatch him in a heart beat. Most who are married are enduring worst things from thier husbands, including beatings, bringing women home, and deporting them to the spare room. Yet, they put up with thier "sweet and loving" husband in public for years. Here they are telling the OP to move out without getting all the facts. Haba!

1. Is this man a Muslim? If yes, is he not entitled to 4 wives?

2. The husband might not even be doing this with clear eyes. Who knows if the business partner lady has not jazzed him. So counseling for both parties is the best option.

3. Is the husband the only child or only male child? In this case, polygamy might even be encouraged by his parents to keep the family lineage. I personally do not support polygamy.

4. Judging situations based on the story from one party is always risky, because the person who feels hurt always loads the account in a way that favors him or her . If the husband was to tell his own side of the story, we will form a very different opinion. So both parties should approach a professional Counselor .

Finally, divorce is never a pleasant thing. It is especially traumatic on the children. If the man is not physically abusive and provides for her family , I don't advise it

What a theory . He definitely is not seeking advice primarily because of financial difficulties. It's the wife's matter that brought him here.

Nigerian women and always reducing everything to money. The wife was cheating when the man was financially sound and when both of them were working.

His business collapse is a more recent event probably due to the trauma of the wife's philandering ways, and his inability to focus

dalass:
You're here for advice because of financial difficulty.
If he were buoyant, its possible she won't cheat with different men. Its lack of money that makes older women to cheat though that's no excuse.

Just one small advice, run a secret DNA test on all those children. They might not even be yours. Share with us the results. Don't mumu yourself by telling your wife before you do it oooo!

I can't tell you what to do about your cheating wife.

hurthubby:
My story is too long but let me try to summarize everything.

(I have been a member of Nairaland since 2009, but i just created this account to hide my identity)

I got married in the year 2000 and wedded in Dec 2001. Before the actual wedding, my wife got a job in Abuja, where she stayed for one year before our wedding and her joining me in Ibadan. During the cause of that year, i have a friend who stays in Abuja that knows my wife very well, who reported about my wife's infidelity to me then, though i ignored it.

In the year 2005, my wife confessed to me that she committed adultery after our wedding.

darling4real1:
I TRULY DON'T ANSWER THIS!!

*Do you know that asking a person “How was your night?” is wrong?*

I personally, find the question very annoying. I usually ignore it. If I answer, it is with sardonic response such as, "only witches know what they do at night. Normal people are expected to be fast asleep"

That retort usually tells the fellow they have asked a silly and invasive question which is not part of greeting

Amanyanabo:
Bullocks! How was ur nite in Nigeria English is a polite question. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Why should I care what a Briton or American thinks

You are right, it's a Nigerian English usage. It is OK if used among and between Nigerians because they understand the context. However, when you are in a multicultural setting, what is culturally acceptable among Nigerians might be very offensive to people from other cultures.

You need to be culturally sensitive and aware. That is the message OP was trying to pass across. There are many things we do here which is an absolute NO NO in other climes. In political circles, it is even worse and rather annoying. Think of things like "I stand on existing protocols ", "my Lords spiritual and temporal", etc. Very useless inanities

Maybe you should ask Pastor Fatoyinbo that question. He is the one who made that statement. There is a video of him preaching to his congregation and saying that. He judged himself

oblaak:
So it’s safe to say if I present 3 witnesses to testify wrongly against you in the same pattern even without any atom of evidence and also dating back the accusations to 15 years ago, then it’s valid because 2 or more testifiers came forward?

Kai! Dis your Inglis is coursing me sivia hedek

adekolaelect:
She and the Husband are the threat to the security of the country because they don't recognise the constitution of the country ,He call for mahulud to mobilise against the country publicly in the Gadring with his people to the extent he attacked the Nigeria militarys convoy and you blame buhari not releasing him but if steps are not taking to frustrate their activities and they are now another Bokoharam of the country I know you will be the first person to make noise and blame government and the Islamic Riligion .You hating Buhari doesn't mean country must collapse or not have any good reasoning than to attack the present government of any step taking simply because you hate them or by not performing to our expectations .He has only four years more. who you like or that can perform than him may be the president tomorrow.Don't support war,Hate and bigotry .Buhari came and he must go but not by war the whole country is more than Buhari .Don't Hate the country ,whish the country war or collapse simply because you hate Buhari.

joseph1832:
Like I once said, the ball is now in Busola's court. If before the end of next month she didn't make any move to take this COZA pastor to court, then we'll know she's nothing but an attention seeker.

Three other women have accused him of the same offence. His name and reputation has been messed up by these women speaking up. So the ball is actually in Fatoyinbo's court, to Lodge a defamation case against these women if he feels he has been wrongly accused.

His strategy of going underground, hoping that the matter will blow over, just like the one of Ese Walters some years back, shows that he is probably guilty.

I like the way you try to reason things. But unfortunately, you are still getting it wrong. Most sexual abuse and predation happens with someone the victim trusts absolutely, and in many cases, people the victim trusts and respects.

So there is no physical threat or someone holding knife to your throat. All the instances, Mrs Fayemi cited were by people the parents trusted completely. I must stress, that young boys also suffer sexual abuse by older females and males in homes, schools, mosques and churches. A guy posted a personal story in this thread of a male first cousin Bro Niyi, who regularly rubbed his preeq on his body and anus. Bro Niyi also molested many other young relatives.

Most sexual predation happens in non-threatening situations over a long period of time. Please check out the rape or sexual predation story of Harvey Wenstein, Bill Cosby and ongoing story of billionaire Jerry Epstein, hundreds of stories of Catholic priests sexually abusing young alter boys and nuns, and compare them to the behaviour of Fatoyinbo. The pattern is that of a highly respected professional or religious figure who had significant influence over the victim.

ericsmith:
You just acted same as mrs fayemi, if are story were to be true you won't need to stress ... you guys are just trying to patch up the incoherences in her story.
success story as nothing to do with assault or danger , even tho i get your point that humans react to incidents differently but here is one fact that cannot be disputed ... humans are wired to flee when they sense or see danger bigger than what they can handle ..
humans reaction to danger is not voluntray action rather it's reflex, hormones boost.
Rape signifies terror,which means danger in cases were the victim stay numb or refuse to react it simply means the brain never sensed danger or feel what is happening is bad. if your dad enter ur bedroom with knife won't you react, aint you suppose to trust ur him

GTB looking N26 in the eye

Somebody don build one kind wall with bid for 5m units at N26.5!!!!!
Na beg I take beg una ooooooooo

Deadlytruth:
Please do add your own offers so that the prices of GTB and Zenith can keep dropping till the grave robber junction at which people like me would look their way.

Baba dem full NSE floor. Make you go pack dem oooo

2zona:
But what has actually changed in these two banks. Inflation rate is still below 11.6 but the dividend yield of zenith bank at today's prize is above 14% OR is Zenith bank planning to cut its dividend payout going forward?

It has absolutely nothing to do with the fundamentals which are healthy. It's the sentiments bro.

If there is a stampede the worst thing to do is to stand in the way and ask questions. You can get crushed in the process. Head for the nearest exit door. When you survive the stampede, you can come back to ask questions. That is why I said, when sanity returns, I will gobble them again, perhaps by then, they would flattened GTB to N20, and Zenith to N10

I'm selling my GTB and Zenith. They have broken my support levels of N28 and N19, respectively. Today no bid for GTB above 27.75
I will get back in when the madness subsides

Oga lawyer, you seem to be very versed in law. I agree with you that the place to question the "yeye stories" of Fatoyinbo's many accusers is the court room. You claim, the multiple sexual allegations against Fatoyinbo are false. So Fatoyinbo has been defamed. Kindly file a defamation suit on his behalf, since he appears unwilling to do so himself. I'm sure he will thank you for your counsel and services.

Ny'mat Akashat Zibiri, one of the anchors on TVC (DSTV channel 418) daily breakfast show, the day after the story broke also counselled him to approach the court and lodge defamation suit immediately against Busola if he is innocent. Till date mumb is the word from Fatoyinbo.

When will he crawl out from his hole and take a stand for himself and clear his name, rather than send surrogates into Social Media space to lob insults at people? I wonder why Biodun's apologists and his members love calling everyone else "idiots", and asking if non-COZA members are better off than them as if that is the issue.

Ese Walters, a dedicated and hardworking member of COZA for many years was a "runs girl" according to you. A former COZA staff who recently gave an interview of her trauma in the hands of Fatoyinbo was also a "runs girl" abi?

Without, even realising, you have slipped into the cesspit of people who take delight in bashing and shaming victims of sexual abuse. Doesn't it say a lot about Fatoyinbo's pastoral effectiveness of all his female members and close personal staff are "runs girls"? I'm won't be surprised if Modele , Fatoyinbo's wife was a single lady in his church before they married. Can we also conclude that she was a typical COZA girl who was into runs? You see why it is wrong to give people derogatory labels?

BigND:
You are the baby Lawyer;
Those of you leading Busola on to make false accusations in order to gain popularity, money or vendetta are the wicked ones.
Documentary evidence my foot;
You people are even confused as to what your case is: one moment you claim she never gave consent, the next you claim it was “statutory rape” and consent is immaterial.
What documentary evidence is relevant in a rape case?? Doctor’s report In respect of which of the several alleged rapes The doggy sex Busola admitted having on the bonnet of Biodun’s car?? Is it a Police Report at an Ilorin Police Station complete with Biodun’s Statement and Police Investigation Report of 20 years ago
My friend go and look for who to bamboozle with your ignorant allusions to “Documentary evidence”.
Documentary evidence koo, documentary evidence, ni.
I don’t know Biodun and I, like many others, have formed my opinion based entirely on watching the full video of the interview granted by Busola. If her account of the facts are correct, the most you can accuse Biodun of is fornication/adultery.
The last time I checked, these are not crimes under Nigerian law but may be unbecoming of a Pastor except that Biodun was not even a Pastor at the time the alleged incident took place.
If a man is guilty of adultery, accuse him of that, don’t accuse him of rape.
False accusations are equally as reprehensible as rape.
All of a sudden, Runs Girls have started opening their mouths to accuse people of rape supported by idiots who insist we should never question or interrogate their yeye stories.

BigND:
Don’t be afraid bro;
Ranting on Nairaland or social media counts for nothing.
I am happy, Busola made a tape which will be available to a Court of Law since she has made a complaint.
On social media we are told that any woman who alleges rape should not be questioned no matter how ridiculous her story is but in a Law Court, it’s a totally different ball game.
I am so sorry for Busola if and when she enters that witness box. Her cross-examination will not be by that biased compassionate friend of hers who interviewed her but by a hard-nosed Criminal Attorney who will tear her rubbish story to pieces and leave her a sorry mess

And your beloved Pastor Fatoyinbo will not be equally grilled by the opposing lawyer, abi? He will not enter the witness box I'm sure. He will be "celebrated" and told to take a bow and go home.

Believe me you are feeling sorry for the wrong party. You need to redirect your pity it to Fatoyinbo, cause he will need it more in open court. But, you and I know that Fatoyinbo, being the predatory coward that he is will NEVER step into a court room on this matter. Even, the "robust response" he promised after Ese Walters accused him of sleeping with her and many other members of his church under the influence of "higher grace", is still being awaited.

ericsmith:
Yeah he is bright, we all can't be driven by emotion...brain must count.
mrs fayemi just made a mockery of busola ,@10yrs she was able detect rape & speak up, an attempt from a relative would av been shocking ..but why did she not go numb like busola.
@13yrs she could avoid broda lai mohammed even b4 attempt but aunty busola after been raped got closer & made herself available for more service.
mrs Fayemi sharing her story only gave rise to more logical questions for aunty busola. ..aunty wey mumu

It is wrong to generalize. People react differently to unusual or traumatic situations. Some are petrified with fear, some are confused, many are too ashamed to discuss it with anybody for years, some might not even realize what the abuser is doing to them at that time is wrong.

Remember the experience of Success Adegor. Many children were flogged in that class and sent home for owing school fees. This is a regular occurrence in many schools. Success's defiant reaction was rather unusual and unique for a child, that is why her story of courage made headlines.

So, many children do not react the way Bisi Fayemi did. Some who did, are usually told to shut up and not say bad things about Uncle Lai, and then the molestation continues.

Oga "genius", go an educate yourself a little bit more by reading Nigerian penal and criminal codes. Rape does not only occur when you forcefully have sex with a girl against her consent. Rape is also committed when you have sex with a minor (someone who is less than 18yrs old).

At the time Pastor Fatoyinbo had sex with Busola, consensual or not, he committed statutory rape, according to Nigerian law because she was 17yrs.

Now I'm wondering who is really dumb

scoory:
What people don't understand is that justice is not black and white. When Fela was jailed for currency smuggling, there are probably some truth to the allegation but it is not true justice because it was politically motivated.
This Fatoyinbo guy most likely had a sexual relationship with the Bukola girl but he can't admit it because he is a pastor. That does not mean he actually forced himself on her.
He is being blackmailed because he has more to loose. If he was a regular guy like me, I will gladly come out and explain how we enjoyed each other's company.

You all keep watching until these NGO organizations turn nigeria into the rape capital of the world so that they can be swimming in money from funds and donations.
You think all the rape stories trending on Nairaland, blogs and social media recently is a conincidence?
Sometimes I wonder if I'm a genius or most people are just dumb.

tomdon:
So what of a boy below 18 having sex with a girl below 18? That one is OK by her abi.
What's the difference between 17 & 18 sef?

It should be either 25 when the girl is surely an adult, else 15 years is OK since all these secondary school kids of nowadays are already fvcking themselves

Nigerian law says anyone below 18yrs is a minor or child. It is not Mrs Fayemi who is saying it . So if you have been busy as an adult sleeping with under 18 girls because they are playing with each other, just know you are already guilty of statutory rape

Aghaclem67:
Nice and innovative but very expensive. Where can a vulcaniser get N323,000. 00 to pay when it gets lost.

Way too expensive. The cost of flat steel sheet and one can of paint and primer to fabricate that kpangolo by a welder cannot be more than N20k.

Last minute money chopping moves by Ambode.
