Wisdom is profitable to direct. If they now decide to refund the #17,500, hope he can also wakeup the girl. Never be careless doing what you can't undo

The dead lady already refunded the missing money before being criminally abducted and imprisoned by hotel owner.

If there was evidence the dead lady wanted to steal 17.5k, in that case just report her to the police or sack her or both. Finish.

Yes, at times some employees can be annoyingly fraudulent or reckless but we must all learn to avoid impunity.

RIP to her.

Not only that O !!

The President of Nigeria must also approve your renounced Citizenship application form

You cannot renounce your Nigerian Citizenship until Mr President says so !!!!

And signs it !!!

Let me give it to you Straight

Hamzat never renounced his Citizenship
and even if he did ( Which he didn't ) President Tinubu of Nigeria under the constitution of Nigeria has the right and full authority to restore it !!!!;

Cc LegendHero

It all boils down to technicality and poorly formulated constitution by the military. Nigeria has such a huge diaspora today today that by now, restrictions or lack of on political positions for 9ja with other citizenship status should be made clear.

It shouldn't matter who the president is or not to wade into such issues. The system and strong institutions should be very sure of their work and enlighten the public. That will benefit everyone.

As you will recall both APC and PDP have taken each other to court over such matters before. Now it's LP v APC. Next time, it could be members of the party you support going to court over same matter yet again.

Christistruth03:
This Document is from the US Government Website

Both Nigeria and US Recognizes dual Citizenship

By the way Nigerian Citizenship is renounced at the Nigerian Embassy who will then issue a Letter confirming it

So the Nigerian Government is the one who actually confirms that a former Citizen of Nigeria has renounced his Citizenship

You case will be thrown in the dustbin like it was in the Case of Senate President Bukola Saraki and former Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun who were also both British Citizens
Do you know that Gen Sani Abacha was also a Citizen of Chad where his father came from?

Bukola was born in London when Oloye was a medic there. Kemi was also born in London. There was automatic citizenship by birth in UK those days. Unless your parents were foreign diplomats.

Both did not voluntarily apply for foreign citizenship, they were born with it. So the laws sees their case differently. Abacha also didn't apply for Chad citizenship.

The law is a bit silly here because whether you were born with it or acquired it, you have allegiance to a foreign country and that country may use you as a spy. But the law is the law.
Presidency/VP and governorship/DG are executive positions that come with immunity from the law. Unlike senators, house of rep, commissioners or ministers that make key decisions but have no immunity.

So I guess the law seeks to guarantee a high level of allegiance to 9ja for those executive positions.

It’s in recorded history bro, if you research you will find.
The first educated Igbo man, Olaudah Equiano born 1725, wrote in his book about his birth place in present day Anambra state and said they were ruled by the Benin Kingdom and subjects to the Oba of Benin.

Lol. If it suits their narrative then Equiano was correct but if it doesn't suite their revisionist ethno-nationalistic propaganda, they say he left too young to know exactly.

Spiritual Doctor

In 2023?

Do people still patronise these sets of beings?

People patronise those juju doctors even more now. Only that some former juju doctors have metamorphosed into prophet or alfa. Some still practice both together. One during daytime, the other at night.

When economy is hard, people are suffering or make little headway in life, they put it down to enemies or village people. And that's the bread and butter of juju doctors.

Adonispco:
Am sorry for my writing pattern; I am in a serious dilemma since January.

I live in a face me I slap you house with just four co-tenants and the landlord.

There is this neighbour of mine that parked in on December 2021, a married man with three kids; two daughters and a son,the eldest daughter should be around 14 years old while the son and the last daughter should be about 4 & 2 years respectively.

We where living in peace although one has to make tolerance a friend for there to be peace.
These my neighbour's eldest daughter to be honest is morally bankrupted, she steals and lies without remorse.

My neighbour's wife always try to cover up her daughter bad behaviours. During christmas time 2022, I noticed a sudden suspicious behaviours from my neighbours wife towards me in particular; she does as if am a diabolic person, as a cool headed guy I focused on my life until on January 21 2023 when I heard the worst words towards my dignity and reputation as a common person;

Fellow nairalanders guess what? My neighbours wife accused me of poisoning his two little kids.

As a cool guy and from what i learnt never to take action when angry, I maintained like its nothing but told our landlord.

My neighbour who is a driver usually travels and can stay there for weeks, so I have to wait for the man of the house to return and hear from him before taking action, so on 29 January he returned, a general yard meeting processed; he was asked to explain more on the accusation from his wife towards me and this was what he said;

"Someone in our yard premises poisoned his children using mirinda and biscuit" that we all are lucky nothing happened to his kids otherwise he will call the police to arrest everybody in our yard.

When asked how he found out that it was someone from our yard and what sickness his children suffered; he said that his children were vomiting blood in the middle of the night, and he went to a spiritual doctor who told him that it was someone from the yard he lives in.

Please Nairalanders what will I do cause I have tried to let go of this heavy accusation but it havent been easy and to make matters worse the once loved innocent easy going guy have become a depressed soul due to the crack on my previous solid reputation.

Please anyone with a good pragmatic solution should help a brother.

I hope you used your mobile phone to secretly record the compound/yard meeting. So that you have evidence of the conversation. If you didn't, use cunning way to call another compound meeting under the guise of trying to find peace and harmony so that they can all repeat the nonsense and you can record it. If you report to police without evidence, your neighbours and landlord can deny that such an accusation was ever made or heard.

But after gathering recorded evidence, find another accommodation before you report to the police. People who go to juju doctor can equally do okpor and put on the ground or doorstep to harm you. Those are not people to share a compound with.

During Buratai's time as COAS, CDS was useless. C-in-Cs are very happy to make minorities CDS because in democratic setting in 9ja CDS is just the senior military bureaucrat.

You leave vetting when you go vet her and consult your family if it's appropriate, you went to nairaland to consult people that are not even in a relationship for advice.
Here you go, them say na you kill the man...

Kikikikikiki

The OP na clown o.

He get luck say na anonymous forum. Like now some mob go dey search for tyre and matches with scarce fuel. To avenge conniving with the wife to poison his cousin.

Most cultures have a protocol for keeping a widow in late husband's family, if the woman wishes to stay and there is a willing relative of the dead to marry her. In the past, this lady that has no no children would the much in demand by eligible male in-laws.

In many cultures, the person inheriting the wife will have to be junior in age to the late hubby.
But in modern times, I guess it has become rare.

OP should ask his parents/family elders to guide him.

You people like to twist history, but government knows the truth and that's why they placed you in your right place, you adopted oba title from Yoruba, some of you still bear our names and some of ur words are copied from Yoruba language and you are claiming fake stories

Which govt? It's Hausa-Fulani/Muslim controlled govt/constitution that determines your history?
Oh yes, It's Hausa that gave the name "Yari.ba" that became Yoruba. Thank God in my part of SW, we know our true links with Ife and Benin and have our unique name and dialect. Olugbo is making things clearer to many.

They can use errand boy obas they selected (Oluwo said so) in your zone as they want. We don't want it, never have and never will.
You guys have a completely different notion of what monarchy is. That's why some obas there embrace bling, party and celebrity life so enthusiastically. Because most never thought they will ever get there. I know some who are different though and still behave well.

Benin is totally different. A Benin crown prince will have already travelled far and wide and met all the influential people.

You cannot be giving what you took from Benin. Oba and Izoduwa all came from Benin.

When it comes to twisting history, Lagos-Ibadan historians/Press are the champion. Nothing is sacred. They can twist anything including monarchy, history, ethics, anything to suite regional political agenda.

Oba of my place in SW who insisted on the truth was deposed back then. He regained his throne but the politician who engineered his removal never achieved his life ambition till he died.

Even today, any SW person who has a different opinion to current political agenda is called omale for having own mind and views. In a place where people claim tolerance and omoluabi ethos o.

TOPMAN4LIFE:
My point is that all obas be it the one in Benin city and those ones in Benin republic have their root from ife or Yoruba,
Even the great alaafin of Oyo empire you talked about came from ife as a son of oduduwa before he became very powerful militarily in Yoruba land and use the military power for his own advantage.
There is no way you twisted the story to cut oba of Benin from his Yoruba root, those directly concerned at the top know the right thing which they have done, it's people like you that are always bringing up a done and settle matter.
If oluwo that brought up this matter said govt picked him, that is for him, that doesn't mean governors pick all obas in Yoruba land,
For example, governor doesn't pick oba in Ibadan till today, that is why the person that always emanates as oba in Ibadan is always very old, as one oba is installed in Ibadan, the next knows themselves.
I'm also sure of ooni that it is not governor that picks him and some obas in Yoruba land.
Ooni holds a very important position in Nigeria and Yoruba land, so he will always be in involved and be invited to many governmental and non-governmental programme unlike other traditional rulers.
You don't expect him to stay put in the palace throughout the year without attending functions and activities when he is not an idol, he is still human and that has not reduced his position as the first in Nigeria because he is a life Co chairmen of traditional rulers in Nigeria. Ooni deserves it because of historical background and not because he knows politians.
I know if this status is given to your oba, you will not allow us to hear word as you people always talk about ur oba,
but now you are claiming ignorantly that ooni is being helped by government.

Benin has never needed outsiders to validate importance of Oba to us. But history of Benin is the best documented in Nigeria, having had earliest contact with Europeans and Christianity. So, it's not obscure. As far Benin is concerned, Izoduwa or your Oduduwa was a Benin prince. Benin and Igalla history clearly say so.
So either way, it's Izoduwa that descends from Benin. By the way, many various clans existed in SW before Izoduwa just about 1000 years ago. It's flawed to say one Lamurudu son flew or teleported from Arabia, Yemen or wherever. Even more ridiculous to climb from heaven with chain.
Oba Akinruntan of Ugbo also clarifies that he owns Ife as the Aboriginal Ife ruler. That Oduduwa the foreigner drove them from Ife. You guys mistake royal connections with entire tribes.

We all know that Awo lifted Ooni because other Yoruba would find it easier to accept the juju priest as a leader instead of the historical leader, Oyo that people still had grudges against for its domination of them for centuries.

That Oba of Benin does not rely on any bent politician to be selected alone shows its uniqueness.

If Oranmiyan, a Benin descendant prince, first became king in Benin, then Oyo and lastly in Ife, if he's head of Izoduwa dynasty, then clearly, his true place of origin and first crown have superiority. And one not selected by one corrupt, election rigging governor too. Chai!! .

Try check the meaning of incest pls.
Regards 👍

It is technically incest because under the law, Western law, that we now practice, the lady and her hubby's brothers are also sibling (siblings-in-law). It's not only biological relatives.
In some countries and jurisdictions, it's actually a jailable offence to do what the woman and brother-in-law did. E.g. Brazil and some US states like Michigan.

TOPMAN4LIFE:
..
Oba of Benin doesn't always attend government functions because the frequency of inviting him is lesser compare to ooni of ife which federal government recognizes more,
But he still attends when he is invited.
All your story holds nothing, since colonial era that Nigeria has been together,ooni has always been above.
Your verbal claims will not change government beliefs .

You need to understand that as a crown prince, Oba of Benin would have already known most of the leaders of Nigeria today. Either doing something for Nigeria at the UN or as an ambassador to countries. So, Oba does not see any of these 9ja politicians as a big deal. Unlike a king that one governor suddenly picked. He would be pinching himself when invited to Abuja. Remember the topic here is that governors pick Yoruba kings. The revelation is not new but a great disservice to tradition when confirmed by a king this way.

As a crown prince, the father of current Oba of Benin ran the govt cabinet office of Gen Yakubu Gowon as Perm Sec. He also represented Nigeria to train officials of Papua New Guinea for their independence from Australia in 1975.

You seem to forget that fall of Benin made creating what became Nigeria possible. Since colonial times, Benin has been a reluctant participant in the Nigerian experiment. An experiment that has failed woefully so far. Yet, if a Benin prince is required to do any job for the people abroad or govt, he would put in his best efforts. Even if only for his family name.

Oba of Benin finds it far more important to attend to matters affecting citizens locally. Faaji and gallivanting has never been Oba of Benin's attribute. Since time immemorial. You think Oba doesn't know the houses of prominent people? But he would not go. Unless out of courtesy when as a guest of Alake of Ake in Abeokuta, he was prevailed on to follow him to visit Obasanjo for OBJ's birthday.

Whatever corrupt Nigerian politicians believe is irrelevant to Benin. The only Yoruba Kingdom Benin has ever truly respected for gallantry in war is Oyo. Warriors respect fellow warriors.

Awo's govt elevation of Ooni, the priest at Ife, above Alaafin, is not our matter. By the way, politicians always like pliant people, be they king or any regular sycophant.

But my simple take is that, these obas picked under the cover of darkness at night should be careful not to totally ruin the traditional institution. They should be very wary of politicians. Politicians only know of self-interest. They can use and rubbish anyone no matter how highly placed.

Sermwell:
Stop capping! I'm from Edo State, and I'll advice you never to underestimate the power of government!

If the Oba of Benin "pass his boundary", Hausa soldiers who don't care about the Benin tradition will be sent to level the Palace.

Even the Oba knows and will never be in the black book of the government.

I repeat, NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF GOVERNMENT!

That is why an Oba trained from birth knows his job and responsibilities. Because he understudied his father for decades.
But when a governor suddenly make you Oba overnight, you might not be too prepared for the role.

Politicians can dethrone, but who will replace the Oba? Only Oba's first son can. A politician/governor can try flex muscle but must wait for the consequence from the people.

Even when the British did in 1897, they could not replace him. His first son only took over in 1914 after his demise in Calabar exile.

If na some place, some envious prince would have connived with the British to take the throne.

drlaykay:
Obas are chosen by kingmakers who follow the directives of the ifa and the tradition. However, the Nigeria constitution has given final approval to the governor.

Now the twist is this, once the kingmakers present their choice to the governor, it could be overturned by the governor. And many Nigerian governors, being the politicians that they are, they often politicize the process ruling against people who they believe are political enemies. They might ask the kingmakers to make a different choice for political reasons.

Aside that, they go with the choices of the kingmaker.

OK.
But in many places such as most of Edo and a small part of Ondo, the king's firstborn son is crown prince from birth.
Nothing any kingmaker or governor can do about. Only death can change that.

Therefore, such "kings in waiting from birth" have no reason be to beholden to any politician.

For example, Benin has no kingmakers but king crowners. The Governor only rubberstamps the coronation by presenting staff of office. After that, you will never see the Oba ever touch so called staff of office. Na just symbol from constitution.

TOPMAN4LIFE:
Dey deceive yourself, as at today in Nigeria, Ooni of ife and sultan of soloto are the life chairmen and co chairmen of all traditional rulers in Nigeria,
Oba of Benin can only compare with the likes of alake of egba, awujale of ijebu, osemawe of Ondo, owa obokun of ijesaland, etc

Look, Benin monarchy preceded Nigeria and will also outlive it. Do you think Benin monarchy relies on corrupt Nigerian politics for relevance? The voters population strength mathematics of 9ja politicians? Did you observe that Oba of Benin doesn't even attend many of these jamborees Nigerian kings do in Abuja now and then?

When Benin Monarchy became the first country to recognise Brazilian independence from Portugal in 1823, before USA and Argentina, it didn't need any other tribe to do the right thing. Today, both Argentina and USA like to claim first position but Brazilian govt are emphatic that Benin did first.

Same one that married two sisters?

Marrying two sisters is not actually a taboo in many cultures. Some tribes just avoid it.
If you are a Christian, Jacob married Rachel and Leah, daughters of Laban.

Jacob and Laban were even first cousins.

If you are a Muslim, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi married daughter of his uncle, late Emir Ado Bayero, whose sons are current Emir of Kano and Emir of Bichi. Muslims regularly marry their first cousins.

Oba Ewuare I Ogidigan who reigned from 1440 to 1473 also married two sisters, albeit under a different circumstance. In Benin, traditional practices don't just happen for nothing, there is history behind it.

In parts of Malawi, if you marry a woman and you turn out to be a good husband, your in-laws may reward you with a sister or cousin of your wife as a second wife.

So I have given you good examples of various acceptable practices in history and the present . So if you want to criticise Benin monarchy, find another flimsy excuse.

Good

I'm yet to see a woman here who have condemned the woman for trying to ruin another woman's marriage.

None of you would accept it if your hubby is the sugar daddy. Cos you can't tell me the man doesn't have his own family as well.

How can they condemn what they can relate to?

We men are still too naïve. Men believe their lovely wife is way above cheating because she is religious and all that.
Look many are being knacked by mechanic, security guard, family driver, etc.

In 9ja, only a very tiny percentage of women marry a man they love. It's mostly about not becoming evening newspaper, marrying a guy who is ready, a guy who can provide economically, how to escape poverty, pressure from parents to marry, etc. Love ain't got nothing to do with it.

Since most are not in love with their hubby, their heart is vacant. Fear of being caught cheating is the only restraining factor for women.

If they can cover their tracks well, which they often do far better than men, nothing stops most of them.

There are more men in love with their wives than the reverse. After all the guy sought her out from among many other women and proposed. Even if you discount for mere infatuation or beauty of the woman as motivating factor, more men will still have proposed out of true feelings.

Whereas, over 95% of our women cannot seek out the man they truly want to marry.

Are u women allergic to making ur own money? Any small thing.. will say you have no choice but to cheat, go into prostitution etc.

Dude, just learn one lesson.
From the responses here, if a man provided for 20 years and suddenly cannot anymore or a man cannot meet up his responsibilities for whatever reason, most women nowadays see nothing wrong with sleeping around to make money.

The idiot guy should do paternity test on his kids. They might not even be his.

As a guy man, if the kids are his, he should send the woman back to her parents and allow the sugar daddy cater for the family. It's his gain.

If he kills the sugar daddy he will go to prison and the whoring wife will now freely move to another husband. Then he will be the loser.
