CrimeRe: Bobrisky: The Injustice Of Our Justice System by danvon(m): 1:58pm On Apr 12, 2024
How can spraying money be part of our tradition and culture when money itself was imported by the British? Paper money itself was even more recent

Our ancestors used cowries for trade and it wasn't even widespread.

faceland:
He should take more responsibility to be indispensable. One day boss want to get ride of him only to realize. He would be minding his business when they would double his salary. Even new persons for those positions needs training each.
I use to believe this, but I learnt this is not always true

Sometimes appearances is just as important as reality, taking more responsibility might make you look desperate, like you don't have options, and nobody likes a beggar, (there are more movies made about criminals than beggars), the employers would never double your salary infact they would come believe they are doing you a big favour by paying you at all.

You can be hardworking but always add a little touch of selfishness and self respect, it makes them value you more.

Abeg abeg make una leave us alone

When we needed you lots you all denied us
Claim Igbo when it suitable for u

Nah we are done with this rubbish

You gave up your igbo heritage to claim a people who came with Portuguese from Liberia on boats... Smh

It's your land... If you want to loose it loose it

The other day ijaws were trying to claim Bonny throne from pepple lmao... It can only happen when you lose yourself

Even slaves Tobi tried to claim opobo throne

U people should keep losing your heritage
But even the Eze of Nri said Igbos are jews, even Nnamdi Kanu denies his ancestry so why should Dokubo be punished for doing what all Igbo leaders do

Abandon their ancestry when it favours them, sons of the soil when it favours them
CrimeRe: Businessman Accused Of Sodomising 12-year-old Maid Disappears From Prison by danvon(m): 10:12pm On Apr 01, 2024
Imagine being bribed into tolerating your own daughter's rape and torture that is how corrupt some people can be...

Imagine spending your time as a police officer to arrest and detain a rapist, only for the victim's father to drop the case after being settled...

then tomorrow they wonder why police don't care too much about fighting crime and why they have no issue collecting bribes.
Foreign AffairsRe: War: Why Russia Didn’t Crush Whole Of Ukraine Overnight – Fani-kayode by danvon(m): 8:00pm On Apr 01, 2024
The motives are different

Russia is trying to annex Ukraine because it sees Ukrainians as it's own people albeit confused

Israel is trying to get rid of palestinians because it doesn't see them as it's people

Why should you have them in the first place and not put your foot down when you see the maid being maltreated?

In the eyes of the law, both of you are culpable, stop making excuses.

Invest in extra gadgets instead of maltrating people's children.
What law are you talking about, i remember all the different punishment I endured in my school for crimes I didn't commit (usually by women), police officers make arrest sometimes without probable cause, soldiers beat people up for the tiniest excuse, the soldiers were themselves beaten up for the tiniest excuse during their training...

The point is, the law sees all this maltreatment going on and it does nothing why?

"Because we were only trying to discipline them and teach them a good life lesson"

That is the excuse the women will give in court and since the female lawyers are themselves guilty of this the women will most likely get a free ticket.

1Sharon:
I'm not disputing that. But what is the so-called head of the house doing? You know he is also culpable right?
It's now he's the head of the house? What happened to equality and feminine power (responsibility)....

If he interferes it would make things worse for the maid, it would be implied that he has some sexual attraction to her and that would worsen her situation, besides the maid would become a woman one day and if she has anyone working beneath her she will most likely replicate the cruelty.

It's a feminine cycle of cruelty

I used to do a printing job before and that girl reminds me so strongly of my coworker then...

This girl would always talk shit about my boss to the customers, even though she was paid more than the rest of us, does less work than the rest of us, gets more days off than the rest of us, yet she's always the one who complains and bitches the most...

I always blamed my boss for not sacking her though...

Now I'm starting to think it's general.

Why is she sharing it on social media?

Does she want public approval? Is her conscience or God's blessing not good enough for her

She wants to be congratulated for adopting a child no one forced her to, what does that say about her?
PoliticsRe: Ipob Opposes Creation Of State Police, Says Regional Police Is Preferred by danvon(m): 1:11pm On Mar 09, 2024
He made a fair criticism though

Some governors cannot be trusted with power, arguably some political parties can't be trusted either...

State police would work best in a country without sharp ethnic and religious lines, I think they have to structure it in a way so that there must some form of weak central authority.

If they had carried out that barbaric act of lynching him and setting fire on him then the Police would have arrested every single community head , igwe , ezes , PGs, youth leaders and youth with pubic hair.

So you are trying to rationalize murdering a human over the justifiable killing of a monkey that was meant as food ?
I'm trying to say when Deborah allegedly insulted the Prophet she was burnt alive, in broad daylight, the police didn't really do much and they couldn't do much even if they wanted to.

You are condemning this people for taking this case to the police like civilized people, you keep mistaking respect for authority with fear for authority.

Then he has no business being arrested by the police and can not be arraigned in a court of law.

They should free him asap and he should counter sue the community for false imprisonment and for confiscating his property (the monkey carcass).

Anyhow sha you would have complained if they had burnt him alive, the police are there to protect lives and properties including that of the community. They did the right thing.

Is there a codex law in Anambra that states that monkey killing is a crime ?

Highest they can arraign him for is disturbing the peace by contravening the superstitious beliefs and norms of the society .

I will advise him as a client to plead not guilty and from there argue within the lines of seeking sustanance from hunting bushmeat - a guraantteed right to self preservation and sustanance.
Do you consider homosexuality a crime?

The monkey is a wild animal and not someone's pet or property.
In China Pandas are considered national treasure, they are used in peace treaties with countries.

Wild animals can still be considered properties, if you doubt go to the nearest zoo and kill an animal, see if you don't end up in prison

Whose property?

That's a wild creature of nature and not anybody's pet.
You can argue as much as you like but in court, motives are more important than actions

If he knew monkeys are considered sacred in that community and still chose to kill it, that proves he doesn't respect the community he lives in and has no problem hurting the community, which makes him a criminal.

There was no cruelty committed.

He bagged himself some bushmeat which his God given rights guarranttee him to forage to preserve and sustain himself.
If you have a dog or goat and some stranger came to your house and killed it, would you claim "He bagged himself some bushmeat which his God given rights guarranttee him to forage to preserve and sustain himself."

That monkey isn't public property but a wild creature of nature that knows no law , boundary nor sovereign.
Wild creature of nature, yet it has lived in peace with the Indigenes of Awka for centuries.

I've lived in Awka myself and the monkeys mind their business, I rarely saw them.

The monkeys are the property of the Indigenes of Awka, if he was ignorant of the customs, he could plead ignorance, but he was fully aware of the customs and still choose to violate it, this proves contempt and malicious intent towards the Indigenes of Awka, he has the motives of a criminal.

Their complains did nothing, if they should violate the Sharia law in the north they would be swiftly dealt with regardless.

This one was not even harmed, despite being fully aware of the customs.
