Thank you Doctor. This is very enlightened and will help many to know the steps to take when someone is shoking. God bless you abundantly

She won't be the first female President, if elected. Mrs Precillia Kuye was the first NBA President. A very versatile woman during the military era.
I wish she becomes the new President. The office is missing the aura of a female president. They are more approachable and are good listeners

Na here Tinubu started him journey as Accountant/Auditor in th 80s. Sentiment aside... this guy's a genius

Those that wished their deranged man (Hobi) to be him but always go online to abuse him will still speak negative things against this landmark. I am happy the way Nigeria is leaving them behind to wallow in self-pity.

Osa Director was one of the fearless journalists that fought for the entronment of democracy. I will never forget his investigative journalism. Very apt, factual and truthful. He showed Abacha shege that he was detained and chained like a criminal. He escaped the gulag by divine grace. Those who never know histroy will be the ones disparaging Osa. A lot of TELL magazines of those years still adorn my book shelve

The Civilians mentioned are truly bastions of the democracy we all enjoy today. They fought the military with their pens. They went underground to continue the fight. They made IBB, Abacha, and Abubakar to become restless until we achieved democracy. They sacrificed a lot. The News, Tell magazine, Tempo, The Guardian, Punch etc stood their grounds to reject the jackboots called military regime. Through investigative journalism, write-ups, articles etc, they fought the military without firing a gunshot. The Civil Liberties Organisation became a pain in the neck of the military boys, peaceful demonstrations became a daily agitations until they couldn't hold it anymore and succombed to the agitations of the populace and on May 29, 1999, they bowed out in shame for democracy to thrive

When I say the Yoruba people made me give up on the unity of Nigeria, some think I am just being biased, but that's the truth.

So here it is:

When terrorism and kidnapping of school children was only restricted to the north, they were everywhere asking for the head of Jonathan, did everything to get him out.

Today the same terrorism and kidnapping is not only in the north but right inside their own domain taking even up to their kings and children and there is calmness, silence, in fact a number of them are even asking for third term for Tinubu.

So I ask what was Jonathan's offense to them?

Secondly, if you want know the level of hypocrisy going on, let's sincerely ask ourselves, the people among them who tell a certain people : go back to your region or attack them during election for mere unverified statement, why are they not shouting that the people committing all these offenses in their land and killing up to their kings to go back their region?

Is there something more to this going on?

Just for second imagine if it were the people who are from that region they tell to go back were the people committing all these crimes in their region and even killing their kings.

Is this how calm they will be?

Your lamentation is uncalled for. If the North could not protest for their own people and the South-West is protesting for their own people, why are you lamenting? Why not let them protest since they are not asking your tribe, Igbos, to come out and protest on their behalf. The way some of you rant on social media will one day come back to hunt you. Rest from all these hatred and face your life

This is a good development. I will encourage all our billionaires in South-South region to emulate Azikiel and invest heavily in oil and gas. They shouldn't leave it for Dangote and BUA alone. There are opportunities in the region that can bring massive employment to the youths in the region.

So the South is managing it well now?

Is Nigeria at the brink of collapse as witnessed in 2023? The gentleman's agreement of rotation is what I am talking about. After 8 years it should go back to the North. But since you ask a question, Nigeria is better than the whole 8 years of waste recorded under late buhari

Take her to the Redemption City to see Pastor E.A. Adeboye. Don't ignore this please

This Atiku talk with so much arrogance and I have seen him as someone who never believed in one Nigeria. He believe that the north should rule the country forever. Unfortunately, he missed the point this time. Nigeria belongs to all of us. History had shown us that the north mismanaged the affairs of this country, that is why the nation is still crawling. He should retire from politics and allow the southern candidates to slug it out at the polls and wait till 2031 for the turn of his zone. Chikena

Wahala dey oo. They thought of ADA, later they wanted to hijack SDP but were resisted before one gbajue called Raph Nwosu sold them a dummy. Now they are in cull-de-sac. They better port to another party before it is too late

Iranian apologists on Nairaland will never cease to amuse me with fake news. They like using the same format all the time. They are yet to tell us the number of IRGC that had been lost into this fight but would rather focus on fabricating lies. They should appeal to their mullars to hands up to reduce collateral damages bedevlling the remnants of the islamic regime instead of spreading lies. I feel sorry for the innocent souls being wasted in this war. Israel and US have achieved their aims by destroying their nuclear technology development, so they stop the fight rightaway

Violence erupts in South Africa over Igbo traditional ruler’s coronation

Xenophobia

Violence has erupted in Eastern Cape Province of South Africa, following protests against the controversial coronation of an Igbo traditional ruler, with demonstrators torching vehicles and looting shops owned by foreign nationals.

The protests, led by members of ActionSA alongside traditional leaders and local residents on Monday, were initially staged in opposition to what organisers described as a violation of the province’s sovereignty, constitutional order and recognised traditional leadership structures.

However, tensions escalated rapidly in KuGompo City, where the demonstrations turned violent, forcing police to intervene and disperse crowds, according to SABC News.

Video evidence on X indicated that protesters set several vehicles and buildings allegedly belonging to foreign nationals on fire while security forces intensified efforts to restore order.

“Protesters have torched vehicles and buildings allegedly belonging to foreign nationals in protest against the installation of a Nigerian king in the Eastern Cape,” Newsroom Afrika reported.

Similarly, CDR Africa said the unrest reflected growing outrage over the coronation, with foreign-owned properties becoming primary targets.

The situation further deteriorated, with eNCA reporting that violence turned deadly after a stabbing incident allegedly involving Ethiopian shop owners.

At least two people were taken to the hospital for treatment, while several vehicles were destroyed in the chaos.

ActionSA’s Eastern Cape chair, Athol Trollip, reaffirmed the party’s opposition to the coronation in East London, describing it as unlawful and inconsistent with South Africa’s traditional leadership framework.

He said the party stood firmly with recognised traditional authorities, insisting that due process must be followed in matters of cultural and traditional governance.

Some protesters issued stark warnings, vowing to escalate resistance if authorities fail to address their concerns.

One demonstrator reportedly said residents were prepared to “take up arms” if the matter remained unresolved, while others called for the deportation of Nigerians linked to the coronation.

The protesters had earlier marched through parts of the province demanding immediate government intervention, warning that failure to act could trigger further unrest. [/b][b]

Let's hope this will restore peace back into the party. If they get it right by this move, I see them using their strong bases all over the country to reclaim their number one position as the leading opposition party in Nigeria

The guns in circulation in the Niger Delta are too scary. God will help this nation to get it right someday

It is only a bastard that describe the road to his father's house with left hand. Rufai Oseni lack decorum of a true journalist. Disrespecting your guests at every opportunity will make future guests set limits before appearing on set. We do watch other TV stations and observe the way they treat their guests. Arise TV station owners must set boundaries, else they will lose focus

SHE WAS EXPRESSING HER LOVE FOR KIDNAPPING BUSINESS

Happy birthday to one of the God's Generals. I wish you more glorious years ahead to win more souls to Christ. Thank you for the good works you have done in the economic sector, educational sector and in our social sector. Many Area Boys and Girls were saved from under the bridges. Many were given scholarships to study in the Redeemers University, Ede. Many are now graduates and working. Many are now Pastors and doing well in their callings. Your marks are there for everyone to see. Till today, many souls are being fed daily free of charge. God Almighty will continue to expand His works through you. We love you Daddy

This is long overdue. Many 'motivational speakers' also parade themselves as members too and should be investigated. We need to sanitise our nation of bad eggs

Vision is about thinking deeply on how to attract investment into your state to create jobs for your populace. His Excellency, has been very forthright in his approach to this. Lagos state keep moving forward and getting better. Thank you Mr Governor for your exemplary leadership in driving the state forward

Rotimi Amechi was the minister that bought these ramshackle trains and he is still the same person that wants to contest in 2027. What a country!!!

This is the right way to go. Governance is about learning from a system that's working. This is why 15 states understudied lagos during Tinibu's tenure on revenue generation. Thank you Gov. Oti for doing the right thing

Federal government bond. You will never regret it

Let a plumber help you to open your inspection chamber first, it may be pad blockage. If it finds out it is not, let him open the septic tank to see whether it is full or not. If the septic tank is in a water logged area then you have a big problem at hand but if it is just the normal water, you have to evacuate it through the agents in charge of that

Ghana did not create it, how would they know that 'Detty' means "Developed Entertainment To Treat You" joyously in December. Make dem park for one corner jare. Ghanaians like trolling unnecessarily

The president must call the IGP to order. What an effrontery!!!!!

God bless the Adedimejis for going back to their roots to reignite the Kiriji war that sealed the oneness among the Ekitis. History is being replayed to educate the GenZs the history of their region. This is a welcome development. A better time to retold the story behind Kiriji war

Only regionalism can make good governance work. Let each region manage their resources and been paying taxes to FG. it will even reduce poverty and insecurity as each region will manage their resources to develop their region.

Minister of Defence and Minister of State for Defence have their roles well spelt out. The minister of Defence is in charge of the Army and Airforce while the Minister of State for Defence is in charge of Navy and paramilitary forces. There's nothing like whether Musa will be answerable to Matawale. 2 of them have their roles well spelt out.

Well said. This is why I love Lagos State Hospitals Management Board as they are creating a lot of awareness in the maternity wards and within the pregnant women that attends their meetings regularly that they must stay away from bread consumption as part of their teachings for them whenever they go for checkups

The way people argue blindly on nairaland makes me believe that they are myopic. With over 250 languages, how do we pass instructions to one another when we meet ourselves outside our locality? Indians and Germans that some people mentioned speak one language. We are multi diversity and we should always think deep before exposing our ignorance. What of if Seun was thought throughout with Yoruba language, how would he be able to speak to all Nigerians? Let us be guided always and think of the best solutions to move the nation forward. criticising every policy of government can not take us anywhere
