Beauty and brain!

Madam, please add integrity.

Wa o, impressive! Wishing you greater success sister.

I noticed she didn't mention her mom in her success story. Her dad was there all through. Divorce is not an option.

'I belong to everybody and I belong to nobody' is the most classic.

Happy Birthday Sai Buahri

But this state house looks 'unpresidential'.

This Brutai appears a no nonsense Army chief.

Good one! It is a sacrilege in Yoruba Kingdom for any Oba not to submit totally to the Almighty God, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. The creator of heaven and earth and it's inhabitants.

Toto Oba Awon Oba!

Few days of hardship makes him look a poor old man of many years.

This is just a taste of what is to before him if he's guilty and convicted.

This is a good change in Nigeria's chequered history.

Season of Governors' children graduating from Law School.

If we have functional refineries the problem will almost be solved because we would consume most and export refined products with added values to the economy. That is why it appears it's only Nigeria that's feeling the impact of the oil price glut most among the oil of exporting countries of the world.

That is the way forward.

Pass bill ke or he's sponsoring bills.

Baba Obasanjo always wanting to be relevant till eternity.

Ode social media commentator. So, the soldiers should siddon look while they kill them and their boss with their dangerous weapons before they act.

Have you ever seen or heard of any Christian group brandishing dangerous weapons such as machine guns and bombs to preach?

The army chief is a muslim and so many of the soldiers. Mr Okri should not bring Christian religion leaders into this and stop crying more than the berieved.

All these so called influential Africans abi na celebrity they call them are so full of themselves. This boy should know he makes money out of rumours from his childish followers.

This Jona's santa only gave gifts to the pot bellied people like him.

The devilish subsidy should be removed sharp sharp!

Very proud of Buahari!

How much did chief Nwobodo collected (sic) that Buhari will jail him again. Mere N100 million that cannot buy a mansion at Banana Island.

Good article/points badly written.

That's good! Lagos needs more of the flyovers to ease traffic.

There will always be explanation for their devilish actions.

Ife, was an epitome of beauty, academic excellence and scholarship.

The beauty is still there while academic excellence remains top in Nigeria.

The problem with Ife is replete with problem with Nigeria which is applicable to all other universities.

Bros Abati, welcome back from the dungeon of 'cluelessnes' to literary scholarship.

Oyinbo pepper's Ode on her visit to Nigeria.

Nigerian local school with big names. What is 'America' doing in the name of a northern Nigerian school.

Let's note that the error could have been the typist's.

The claim of moving away from British colonial legacy to Islam is funny. Is Islam indigenous to African culture or religion?

Bola Salami, 29, Opeyemi Aregbesola, 25, and Ogunleye Lati were paraded for car theft on Friday.
The duo of Salami and Aregbesola were out of luck when they were arrested on December 2, 2015 for stealing a red 2010 Toyota Camry.
Speaking to Saturday Punch , Aregbesola, who hails from Osun State, said he was into phone theft before he decided to get involved in car snatching so he could raise more money. He began, “Somebody told me he was in need of a vehicle, so my friend and I decided to snatch one for him.
I wanted to make more money, that was why I agreed to supply the vehicle.“On the particular day, my friend and I were passing through the Ofada Street, Olorunsogo, in Mushin (Lagos State) when we saw the opportunity and we jumped at it. What we had in mind was to go and snatch phones, which was what we had been doing before. But when we got to that street and saw the Camry, we just remembered that somebody had told us he needed such car. That was when we decided to snatch the car.”
Talking about how they snatched the car from the victim, whose name was not disclosed, Aregbesola said they didn’t operate with any weapon. He continued,
“We slapped the man on his chest suddenly and he ran away. He parked his car in front of the house and left the key on the ignition. He had gone to the boot of his car to collect something and closed the gate. As he was going back to enter the car, we slapped him and he ran away. We drove the car away before the police recovered it through tracking.
“Our main focus was to snatch phones and we have stolen a number of that but the opportunity came to make more money and we took it. I met Salami recently and we used to snatch phones together before this offer came. We had planned to sell the car for N400,000.”
Giving his own account of how they snatched the car, Salami, who said he was released from police detention earlier this year having been wrongly detained for about four years, said they drove the car from Mushin to Abule Egba before the police tracked and recovered it from them.
He said, “I was first arrested in Ibadan in 2011 during a riot by NURTW members. I was in detention for four years. I was an innocent danfo driver. I have four siblings. It was the devil that pushed me into this crime and I regret it.
“When I came out of prison, I was jobless before I met Aregbesola. I had planned to invest the proceeds from the car robbery. I felt it would be a break for me and I had planned not to go back to it again if I could make some money from the Camry deal.”
Meanwhile, another Ogunleye Lati was arrested for being a receiver of stolen vehicles. It was gathered that Lati had agreed to buy the car from them. Speaking to Saturday Punch, Lati claimed it was the second time he was getting involved in the crime.
“I didn’t plan to buy the car. This is actually my second time of getting involved in this business. The first time, the police also recovered the car, so I decided to see if I could be successful this time. My plan was to sell the car as soon as the boys sold it to me.
“I was a computer engineer at Ikeja but when officials of Kick Against Indiscipline chased us out of Ikeja, things became difficult for me. They smashed our show glass, everything I had was gone, things weren’t working for me again, so I had to get involved in this crime,” he said.

lalasticlala, ishilove

Don't give Ogbeni Raufu a bad name now!

Hadone:
Indeed, for having singular ability to prophesized ONLY evil and bad for the mankind

And for making publicity stunt of it and showmanship show of kindness to the less privileged Nigerians.

Where is the rousing welcome?

Politicians and their stooges can lie!

Hmm.. SINators of the Federal Republic in Uganda to witness graduation? I don't really know if this is good or not.

Congratulations to the 200 men and women (hope women are part) of Sokoto.

Good

I'm impressed!

These people are real thieves. I think the whole blame should be heaped on GEJ and his conduit pipe, Dasuki.

NOI's blame is minimal as she has always played smart.

Please save lives by reporting the details to the appropriate authority, NAFDAC.

Thanks.
