If it's true, that will be a welcome development. After all, the PDP has zoned the seat to the North, proving that Kwara is indeed part of the region.

Kwara is north by geographical inclusion and enslavement. When we talk about political leadership, leave it for the owners of the country: Fulani. Point your searchlight towards northwest not north central.

On Sunday, the senator took his antics a notch higher by hosting a costume party dressed as Jack Sparrow in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’.

Save for the lack of an eyepatch and a dangling sword, Melaye, also known as “Captain SDM”, almost nailed the Jack Sparrow look.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Might Go Up In Flames, If… —unongo, Second Republic Minister by dabeto: 5:16am On Jan 08, 2018
Let the killing continue..........nothing will happen. I repeat, nothing will happen. I had always thought the Tiv were warriors as a young boy.
I heard how the Fulani Nigerian military recruited them to fight the civil war. I grew up seeing them fighting all their neighbours.
I was mystified by their continuous engagement in conflicts all year round.
Today, I know better. That a group of ragtag Fulani herdsmen can send terror down the spine of men. Killing and destroying the entire Benue state and men are only praying for help from above.
There is rather something mystical about the Fulani that has conquered not only Tiv, Benue but the entire nation.

What are his political philosophies about Nigeria?
What's his take on the following burning national issues:
1. Restructuring
2. Fiscal federalism
3. Insecurity in the country
4. Fulani terrorism and ranching
5. Religion and secularism of Nigerian State.
If he can respond to these issues appropriately, then he has my vote.
Unfortunately, he talk less in the political sphere thereby concealing his thoughts.

Check the water heater
Check the lighting
Check the fan if it's squeaking i.e if there's any
Check the TV if it has more channels that can be regulated by you

PoliticsAgbakoba Threatens Court Action To Sop NASS Debate On 2018 Budget by dabeto(op): 10:32am On Jan 04, 2018
The 2018 Federal Government’s Appropriation Bill currently undergoing debate on the floor of National Assembly may have come under threat as former president, Civil Liberty Organisation (CLO), Dr Olisa Agbakoba (SAN), on Wednesday threatened to approach the court to stop its passage if within seven days President Muhammadu Buhari did not withdraw the document, describing it as unconstitutional.

Agbakoba issued this threat in a letter titled, ‘Is the 2018 Appropriation Bill Constitutional?’ date 3rd January, 2018 and separately addressed to the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki and the Speaker, Honourable Yakubu Dogara, citing a subsisting Federal High Court decision in Olisa Agbakoba vs. Attorney General of the Federation General of the Federal & others suit no. FHC/ABJ/CS/63/2013.

According to Agbakoba, the 2018 Budget is unconstitutional and should be withdrawn based on fact on ground that it was singularly prepared by the Executive Arm as against the court ruling which affirmed that each arm of government, including the Executive, Legislature and Judiciary should prepare its budget separately and lay it before the National Assembly for passage.

“Sections 81 to 84 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) set out the procedure for preparing the Appropriation Bill.

“The Constitution requests each arm of government (the Executive, Legislature and the Judiciary) to lay before the National Assembly its estimates of revenue and expenditure for each financial year after which it is appropriated, harmonized as a bill and presented to the President for his assent.

“Unfortunately, the Executive has failed to comply with this procedure by laying before the National Assembly estimates of revenues and expenditure for the Judiciary. This inspite of a subsisting Federal High Court decision in Olisa Agbakoba vs. Attorney General of the Federation General of the Federal & others suit no. FHC/ABJ/CS/63/2013. That has declared this practice unconstitutional,” Agbakoba said.

Agbakoba, while saying that he was unaware if the National Assembly had laid its budget estimates, called on the parliament to draw President Buhari’s attention to the decision of the court and request the National Judicial Council (NJC) to lay before it the Judiciary’s estimates of revenue and expenditure for 2018, while the Executive be made to represent its estimates for the current financial year.


“We suggest that the National Assembly draw the attention of the Executive to the decision of the Federal High Court. The National Assembly should request the National Judicial Council to lay before it the Judiciary’s estimates of revenue and expenditure for 2018 and the Executive be made to represent its estimates for 2018,” Agbakoba demanded.

“But please note that if after 7 days the constitutional procedure is not complied with, we shall have no choice but to initiate legal proceedings to enforce the decision of the Federal High Court and set aside the 2018 Appropriation Bill,” he threatened.

PoliticsWay Out Of Fuel Crisis: Payment Of N800b Subsidy Arrears On The Cards by dabeto(op): 10:20am On Jan 04, 2018
THE Federal Government is considering payment of N800 billion fuel subsidy arrears to oil marketers, provision of tax holidays and other incentives as part of measures targeted at ending the lingering scarcity. These and other issues were pushed forward at the engagement of stakeholders, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC; Department of Petroleum Resources, DPR; Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria, MOMAN; Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN; Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association, DAPPMA and others, hosted by Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, Minister of State for Petroleum Resources in Abuja, yesterday.

Mr. Idang Alibi, Director, Press in the Ministry of Petroleum Resources, who spoke with Vanguard on phone, yesterday, declined to provide information, noting that the engagement was still ongoing. But a source, who attended the meeting, but preferred not to be named, told Vanguard that the payment of the debt was adopted, as it will enable the oil marketers settle huge debts to commercial banks and embark on new importation of petroleum products.
He said other measures adopted to tackle the crisis, include maintenance of local refineries, preferential allocation of foreign exchange to oil marketers and increased monitoring of petroleum products by DPR. The source said stakeholders, who agreed not to increase the price of fuel, also resolved to adopt cost-cutting strategies, while four sub-committees were inaugurated to address the challenges of fuel supply across the country. He said: “There is no planned increase in fuel price. The minister said it should not be contemplated. None of us want fuel price to rise.

What we talked about was tax holidays and other things in that line. “Also, all stakeholders have agreed to look inward and improve efficiency so that we can cut down cost and resume our business. Nobody is concerned about price increment. “The Minister also inaugurated some sub-committees, about four in number, some of which are logistics and business conduct committees. Some individuals were appointed into all the committees.” The source said all the agreements reached at the meeting, which was still ongoing at press time, would be relayed to the Presidency, hopefully by today, before they are made public.

The committee was headed by the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu and has as members, heads of some parastatals under the ministry, the Group Managing Director of NNPC, DAPPMA, IPMAN and labour officials. Diversion Also, another source at the meeting told vanguard that it was discovered that diversion played a major role in the current scarcity in the country, “as between 30 and 50 percent of petroleum products in other African countries are from Nigeria.

This is because the products are more expensive in those other countries than Nigeria. “It was discovered that most of the diversion take place in the Northern part of the country. That is why you hear that some number of trucks have been allocated to certain parts of the country, but will never get to the filling stations. Though the meeting did not want to blame anybody, it was obvious that certain people are not doing their jobs and are conniving with smugglers to undermine the system.”

Foreign AffairsHajib War Moves To US Military Academy As Female Student Insists by dabeto(op): 9:12am On Jan 04, 2018
Muslims have no respect for American culture or history, and they have no intention to assimilate. Luckily, our military is not prepared to appease any Muslim demands. A Muslim student, who is about to attend a historic military academy in South Carolina, is attempting to force the school to allow her to wear a hijab. The school refused her request and told her she is not above the rules.

The military college, the Citadel, has a long history and has operated as a school for 175 years. It has not allowed an exception to the dress code once in its entire history.

Now, an entitled Muslim student is demanding the school break tradition and guidelines to support her religion and protect her feelings.

The Citadel’s dress code is strict. Students are required to be in uniform at all times while on campus, with only two exceptions. They may wear bathing suits while swimming, and be out of uniform during a furlough, which only upper-year students enjoy.

The academy’s president announced the decision earlier this week explaining that, “The standardization of cadets in apparel, overall appearance, actions, and privileges is essential to the learning goals and objectives of the college.”

“This process reflects an initial relinquishing of self, during which cadets learn the value of teamwork to function as a single unit,” the president said, justifying the almost two-century long guideline.

The Citadel allows for religious accommodation so long as it does not undermine the objectives of the school such as morale, health and safety, or good order. Breaking unit cohesion for a head scarf is not acceptable.

The Muslim student is not accepting the school’s decision in good spirit. Instead, she is suing the school with the support of the terror-funded Council of American-Islamic Relations. She says the lawsuit will go through unless the school allows her to attend in a hijab.

The Muslim-led attack on our historic institutions is being launched in an attempt to undermine our history. Muslims have convinced short-sided liberals to abandon their principles in the name of protecting the supposedly oppressed.

The Muslims are not fighting for equality, as the school policy treats people of all faiths equally. Instead, they demand special privileges for only themselves. This is a part of the process known as creeping Sharia, where Muslims are able to trick a country into adopting Sharia law one principle at a time.

FashionImages From Around The World Show Bald Men With Weird Tattooed Heads by dabeto(op): 6:25pm On Dec 31, 2017
Losing your hair can feel like losing your crowning glory - but a selection of brave souls have chosen to embrace it rather than cover it up.

A collection of funny images from around the world, shared online, show men in different stages of hair loss who instead of hiding their baldness with hair implants or wigs, have used their head as a canvas for some very creative tattoos.

Their elaborate efforts include scary faces, animals and even zips while one chap decided to tattoo the Louis Vuitton brand logo all over his head.

Another gentleman seemed to show his affinity with famous bald men from history by having Russian communist revolutionary Vladimir Lenin's face tattooed on the back of his head.

Crime"She Was Jealous Of My Fair Skin': Acid Attack Victim by dabeto(op): 6:05pm On Dec 31, 2017
Naomi Oni, 25, was attacked with acid by a close friend as she stepped off a bus
Attacker, Mary Konye, was jailed for 12 years after leaving Ms Oni scarred for life
It is believed Konye carried out the attack over Ms Oni's fairer skin complexion
She disguised herself in a niqab and followed her home from a shopping centre
Ms Oni has spoken out for the first time of how she felt betrayed after the attack
A woman who was scarred for life after having acid thrown in her face by a friend has spoken out for the first time about being 'betrayed'.

Naomi Oni suffered horrific burns and was nearly blinded by the attack when she was ambushed by a jealous friend as she stepped off a bus, just after Christmas in 2012.

The 25-year-old was attacked by Mary Konye — who disguised herself by wearing an Islamic niqab and followed her home from Westfield shopping centre, in Stratford, East London.

Now, five years on since horrific attack, courageous Ms Oni has spoken out for the first time of how it changed her life forever.

A new BBC3 documentary on acid attacks has revealed Konye sent sympathetic messages with Ms Oni immediately after the attack while police were still hunting the perpetrator.

She even attended a birthday party for the victim.

'I thought she was my friend and I couldn't understand why she did what she did,' Ms Oni tells the programme.
'To be betrayed - for someone to lead you to your own destruction - I was heartbroken.'

It comes amid a spate of acid attacks in the capital.

On Wednesday, a 26-year-old woman suffered life-changing burns to her face and leg when she was sprayed with acid while walking in East London.

No arrests have been made and the Metropolitan Police are reviewing CCTV images.

Ms Oni was so badly burned that she had to have facial reconstruction surgery twice.

Doctors had to use skin from her thighs to rebuild her face as well as skin from behind her ears to create new eyelids.

Politics1000 Prayer Warriors For Aso Rock by dabeto(op): 6:05am On Dec 30, 2017
Normal things do not happen normally in Nigeria. There must always be a “spiritual” side to everything. This is why a dissipated man would wake up from a frightening dream, and then start to “cast and bind” the devil with psychotic inanities.

I have read a volume of reactions to the unfortunate motorbike accident of Yusuf Buhari, son of President Muhammadu Buhari. I must say, most of the reactions lack compassion; some had a sense of schad en freude to them, while a few were utterly ridiculous.

The reactions I considered as the looniest were those giving a spiritual bent to the incident. To religious shareholders, Aso Rock is a pub for blood-thirsty demons; hence any resident of the place must be spiritually fortified. According to this group, the incident is a spiritual attack on the first family.

Reuben Abati’s “the Spiritual Side of Aso Rock” is not helping matters because his article is often cited as the Magna Carta of spiritual warfare at the presidential villa.

Abati, who was a tenant in Aso Rock under former President Goodluck Jonathan, claimed that the seat of power was in the grip of malevolent supernatural forces. I did not believe this then; I still do not believe it now.

To inveterate cynics, the president is getting his comeuppance for his “crime” against a section of the country. According to this group, karma has come for the president. This is really disturbing. It says a lot about our humanity.

In all of these, I hope the presidency does not succumb to suggestions and shadow whispers of targeted spiritual attacks on the president’s family. Life happens. Aso Rock should not return to the days of lordship by 500 marabouts and 1000 prayer warriors, please.

Let me end this article by putting a post on “religion” on my Facebook page here.

“The deadly intercourse of religion and ignorance will keep Nigeria where it is at the moment – in the mud. There cannot be any progress as long as these two potent evils remain in bed.
China pulled more than 500 million of its citizens out of poverty between 1981 and 2012. The poverty rate fell from 88 percent to 6.5 percent! Note, more than half of China’s population is irreligious.
In Nigeria, more than 90 percent of the population is religious. As of 2016, 112 million Nigerians were living in stage-four poverty! The cause of this depressing figure is the matrimony of religion and ignorance. And more Nigerians will plunge further into poverty.”
