GavelSlam: So they don't deserve to explore for oil?
Did any region in Nigeria discover oil without federal government support?
Yes, eastern region of Nigeria in 1951, 1953 and 1956. In those days, the exploration was private endeavor. Shell D'Arcy and eastern region spearheaded the discovery of crude oil.
Yet it was northern region pushed by greed and hunger for crude oil attacked eastern region in 1967 on the deceitful pretense of one-Nigeria. Most Nigerians do not have shame especially the moronic dingbat called Juniad Mohammed.
smoy: so, not the same country constitution that give her same right to practice her religion supersede any regulations?
She has every privilege to practice her religion in the mosque not in Nigerian court room. She will still vacate the courtroom whenever she wants to pray facing east. Nigeria constitution did not grant anybody the right to practice religious doctrines in Nigerian judiciary system.
seunmsg: There is absolutely nothing wrong with Eniola's picture. Below is a nude picture of pregnant Serena Williams. It is part of their celebrity lifestyle.
This picture is not Serena William's father headache but her husband. She was never entirely nude when unmarried. Eniola Aluko is yet to be married therefore her actions still bear connections to her father.
smoy: wat do you means by secular, when did you divided the country of religion and secular state, i leaned Law school is for all?
Are you this elusive? There are many Nigerians and states that practice sharia law in Nigeria. Yes, I guess you learnt correctly that law school is for everyone without religious indoctrination.
There is a difference between a professional dress code and religious right. When a lawyer goes to court, under the British system, he/she must dress like a lawyer not masquerade.
erico2k2: THE RRS never had a US specification, its all in UK and exported worldwide.This was how the kept it luxurious and expenssive!
RRS has USA specification even California spec. A slight cosmetic change on a vehicle can alter the specification. Does your vehicle have dial button or joystick for gear shift? All the instrumental buttons on the picture showed it is anywhere between 2010 and 2013. The body does not indicate beyond 2013.
nurey: How you brought the Audi A8 into the mix still beats my imagination.
The discussion is solely LS VS S class, after the LS400 posed a treat in the 90s,the only other time it did again was in 13-16 and that was the LS600h L.
Besides the 1990s LS400 are very much around in good condition with AC and an everyday driver even with its V8 engine same can't be said for the S class of same year.
Even the Toyota crown is also around for every classic Benz you see, there are classic of other car makers too even opel. But what appeals to you may not appeal to others.
Bros this my point. I had 1992 LS 400 with 432,390 mile until six month ago when the harness burnt up including the ECU. The same naturally aspirated V8 engine and transmission. It is only S-class MB probably 2004 to 2006 that can give a slight run for the money.
erico2k2: Then you are talking of your personal choice not that in reality you could compare both in price or durability., ask yourself where are teh LS400 today?,least we 4get, the lexus is Toyota, so lets leave it at that, SO you want to compare a Lexus to a Maybach right?
LS400 remained the top dog status for 10 years USA as best consumer product. The only thing that messed up LS460 was direct-injection configuration and electro-mechanical steering wheel. I hope the bugs on the steering have been solved. As for direct-injection, it is for the people who have short term usage of their vehicle. By the way, personal preference factors into choice of vehicle. However from engine and transmission durability. engine noise to suspension, Lexus has leg up on German vehicles.
greenhulk: With 6 liter twin turbo V12 producing 622 Hp and 738 lb-ft. This box has the engine of a supercar and costs $230,000.. (that is about $80,000 more expensive than the G63), upon that it doesn't even have a keyless access (wtf Mercedes, even a Rav 4 has that). Popular Youtuber Doug Demuro reviewed this car and looks like he doesn't like it.
Abagworo: [b]While many seem fixated at the manipulation of a good and honorable policy of Imo Government by opposition, the more knowledgeable people understand it is a revolution about to kick-start from Imo State. [/b]Tricycles or Keke are mostly imported from Asia and over the last few years Nigerians have imported them in millions while Innoson our own local product was struggling to survive. Behold one of the major advantage of Keke ban in Owerri as Innoson brand buses are about making a boom shaka boom in popularity. Hopefully other Southeastern States and indeed Nigerian States will key in to encourage the growth of our own. In Igbo we say "Nkea bu nke anyi".
Behold the "Imo Black Cab".
Only in a dumbass country that governments get involved in Taxicab business. The useless government of Imo State should have empowered individual through a private company to own the cabs.
Bros, I have owned, at least a class of MB, leased and test drove MB from E Class to S-Class including G-Wagon and GLC, BMW from M5 to 760Li. As I write. German automobile showrooms have no use for me.
It depends on the road condition of your country. I cannot trust Nigerian roads with any vehicle. Other than list situation, FX is a good vehicle especially FX-35.
EuroBoy007: So I no fit change body parts for my own car again if wish.
I'm done with u.
For calling me names on top my own car, insulting me for just asking a question on public forum, u don't know me n u called me a scammer.
Take this 10 euros go and buy "mind ur business" .... I don't wanna insulting u again, I 4 say make u buy sense or manners. pls keep off.
The dial buttons put your vehicle squally between 2010 and 2013 if it is a USA specification. If the gear shift is also a dial button instead of joystick, I guess it is not USA specification.
OAUTemitayo: Oga Deridegull, it is not Federal Government that built Lagos. Only 3 local governments out of the present 20 were part of the federal capital territory then. 17 local governments were part of the western region. It was Awolowo who constructed the industrial estates in Lagos not your incompetent federal government. It was UPN that built most of the roads in Lagos not your federal government. The only project worth of mentioning that we can attribute to the FG is the third mainland bridge and probably Festac. I dare you to prove me wrong.
If the defunct western region built Lagos as you would want us to believe, one wonders why Awolowo and defunct western region left the capital of the region in a backwater status. I spent few times in Lagos and federal government presence was everywhere in Lagos. Even during the first republic, Yari.ba has no say in what happens in Lagos. Lagos was exclusively the domain of federal government hence there was no Yari.ba person as the minister of Lagos. It is a pity you are engrossed with silly local government area pattern of yesteryear. There were no LGAs when Lagos was a city.
deji17: You call the land where your parents were born cesspit says a lot about you. Dumbass, blah, blah, your problem and headache. What good have you ever contributed to any society apart from your inferiority complex, bad manners, low self esteem, criminality and support for looters because of parochial reasons?
Of course, I called it cesspit and not done with calling it names. Nigeria is a typical example of a geographical expression where low life such as you contribute to the society. When a mentally incapacitated ninny such as you and Buhari leads a country, it has always turned out to be Nigeria. When meritorious people take the helms of a country, looters will simply vanish. I know perennial losers such as you and the irrelevant Festus Keyamo are always after money in disregard to other worthy intangible attributes.
deji17: Opinions are an ass.hole, everyone has got one. This is yours which many people may not agree with. How is Buhari's position nepotism? Did he not win an election to become the President? Did he not attend Military school even under the colonial rule? Did he not attend numerous military college for training like many other Nigerians? Was he not the only Nigerian to have commanded all the military commands despite his anti corruption and discipline stand? Did he not contest for election and lost three times before hew was 4th time lucky? Now to yourself. Have you ever led in anything in life? Have you tried to contest for councillorship in Aba or Buhari stopped you from doing that? Yes, some previous and even some current Nigeria leaders have been known to be corrupt, is it right to say that all of them are corrupt? How have you personally contributed to Nigeria success apart from wailing and whining?
One of the major problem in Nigeria is misguided sentiment. If you do not have comprehension issues, you have realized that my post never read that position Buhari occupied is nepotism but he, Buhari, is a product of nepotistic endeavors of the Nigerian government of 1960 under Tafawa Balewa. If you think the present government of the cesspit called Nigeria and the officials of this present government are immune to embezzlement, I can safely say Nigeria is doomed for ever. The dumbass Buhari cannot and will not stop me from contesting anything in life. However, I shall never contest anything in the cesspit called Nigeria because doing so will impugn the character I have built outside the zoo called Nigeria.
Nnamdi Kanu is not only a criminal,but also a mischief who has not done a day of hardwork in his life.
This is a man that surrounds himself with the lowest of all low live's in the East as followers. You cannot point to one educated follower of this man that was a failure in life before coming up with this elaborate Biafra scam.
We make him relevant by putting his story here,and i will be writing Seun about that soon.
Abeg na where Kanu don work before?it is people like Kanu that encourages criminals like Bishop,Evans and Escoba with thousands of Jobless youths UPSTATE that crime pays,and you dont need to work.
Criminal.
Criminals should include those who tend to sit truth on its head. From your post pal, you are one. Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB do not constitute the government or body that stages election in the cesspit called Nigeria and therefore are not pertinent to functionary of election. It is a borderline criminal to accuse someone who does not decide whether election should hold or not hold in Anambra State for the stoppage of election in Anambra State. The idiotic government in the cesspit called Nigeria has right to stage an election but for electorates to participate in such process.
mbjsuki: It's sad and very unfortunate without trading insults and tantrums. What's in this man that you simply developed a crush on? Among all the well educated socialites, you picked this? As your crush? And you so much believed in a man like him that he is truly fighting for his tribe and not his pocket? After Ojukwu,who from us is truly fighting sincerely for the interest of all? All are for self recognition to acquire wealth and status look at Asari,look at Tompolo! The best legacy that "yorubas" are known for is the urge to go to school. With this you not a slave to anyone or anybody. And you, you simply used your left hand to point towards your father's house......and your name again is ******pusy, right?
You need to have a rethink! I honestly doubt if you're from that tribe. Yorubas are known to be bold and proud set of people, you're simply an impostor. I'm proud of the Yoruba tribe. God bless One Nigeria.
LastlyFREEDOM: More troubles for the IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu, as Coalition of Anambra Pro-Democracy Lawyer, under the aegis of Anambra Lawyers in Defence of Democracy [ASLADD] wrote Governor Willie an open letter warning him of the grave consequences that would sooner than later befall the state if he refuses to reign in what they described as the "impunity of anarchist" before it is too late. The Lawyers accused the IPOB of acts of "outlawry" aimed at striking terror in the minds of the citizens who would love to go out and discharge their civil duty.A full copy of the letter is found below:
THE 2017 ANAMBRA STATE GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION AND THE IMPERATIVE OF ENDING THE IMPUNITY OF ANARCHISTS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. The above subject matter refers.
INTRODUCTION:
We, ANAMBRA STATE LAWYERS IN DEFENCE OF DEMOCRACY [ASLADD], bring you warmest greetings from our constituency
BACKGROUND FACTS
The State is now due for another governorship election which the electoral umpire, the Independent National Electoral Commission [henceforth in this article called the INEC], has slated the date of the epic contest to be 18th November, 2017.
It is now a public knowledge that you have picked your nomination form in other to square up with many opponents from other political parties. The atmosphere is gradually heating up. This is understandable. Now, we have the Indigenous People of Biafra [henceforth in this article political epic battle coming up. This is so not because the IPOB is a registered political party called the IPOB]. They [the IPOB] are now concededly a factor in the under the Nigerian laws. The IPOB is not even registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission in Nigeria and therefore enjoys no legal entity in the Nigerian nation.
However, the IPOB activities and the consequences flowing therefrom now transcend both political/geographical boundaries. The Leader of the IPOB, Maazi Nnamdi Kanu, has taken a decision and consequently issued a directive to the effect that elections would no longer hold in Biafraland. No doubt, both your humble self and the members of ASLADD are all Biafrans. To this extent, it is therefore correct to state that no one man or group can lay claim to being more Biafran than the others.
OBJECTIVE OF THE LETTER: The fulcrum of this urgent letter has been donated by the strident opposition mounted by the IPOB to the conduct of the 2017 Governorship election in Anambra state. We have chosen to write you on this principally because we are involved. We are involved because we too are Anambrarians. We are involved because democracy has come under imminent threat in our beloved State. We are involved because the future of every nation’s democracy lies on the shoulders of lawyers. We are involved because lawyers are saddled with the sacred and abiding duties of enlightening the society, upholding the rule of law and defending our constitution [which is the most sacred document] that holds our nation in balance and in being. We are involved because it is our incontestable right to contribute in defining and protecting the future in which we will live and raise our kids. It is now clearly beyond any scintilla of argument that we have a legitimate interest in whatever plays out on the political scene of Anambra State of Nigeria.
THE MEAT OF THE MATTER: Your Excellency Sir, A boycott is an act of voluntary and intentional abstention from using, buying, or dealing with a person, organization, or country as an expression of protest, usually for social, political, or environmental reasons. If the IPOB had stopped at directing its members to abstain from the polls, perhaps the present open letter would not have been of any moment. But they did not stop at that. They have now gone physical. In Onitsha, video evidence abound how IPOB members have interrupted state activities where the governor went for a football tournament. On another occasion, the Governorship aspirant under the PPA platform, Chief Godwin Ezemo, was confronted at a rally by the IPOB. Only recently, the IPOB members invaded and desecrated St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Ekwulobia in Aguata Local Government Area, where the Governor was to worship. From the account of the State Commissioner of Police, it took greater restraint and discipline on the part of the Governor’s security details to stave off what would have been a harvest of human casualties. Still recently, we read in the news that a coalition of militants have issued a stern warning to Anambrarians, to stay away from the polls on the 18th of November, 2017 or pay dearly for daring to defy the order of Maazi Nnamdi Kanu. All these are deliberate acts aimed at striking terror in the minds of ordinary citizens who have made up their minds to go out and discharge their civic duty. It is now clear that going further to disrupt electioneering processes [like football tournaments, campaign rallies] and invading and desecrating the sacred places of worship [as witnessed in St. Joseph’s Catholic Church Ekwulobia] are acts clearly outside the meaning of the word “boycott”. Those are acts of outlawry. They are forerunners of anarchy. Anarchy is antithetical to democracy. Anarchists are anti-democratic forces that must be opposed whether in Nigeria or Biafraland. Anambra State has values that distinguish it from the lots. We cherish democracy and its pristine values one of which is freedom of thought and speech. We are republican. We abhor anarchy and view tyranny with disgust! People who wish to deal with us must respect our values. Your Excellency, it is important to point out that in every democracy, while the minority will always have their say, the majority will have their way. In every democracy, no one man has the monopoly of the knowledge of what is good for a people. A people even have the right [in every democracy] to reject what is good for them. Advocates of election boycott must begin to learn, accept and live with this democratic truth. We pray that those who are actively seeking to return our dear Anambra state to the wasteful and inglorious days of Mbadinuju be dismayed and turned back. This is because, they are our enemies. For seeking to precipitate anarchy in the state of the iconic departed Supreme Leader of Biafra [His Excellency Dim Ikemba Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu], they are enemies of Biafraland. They have no respect for the cherished memories of our departed Supreme Leader who [in his matchless wisdom] established APGA as a political party in the Nigerian Federation. A party which the current IPOB Leader [Nnamdi Kanu] once headed its UK Chapter. Nnamdi Kanu has not told us what has changed between then and now.
ANAMBRA BU NKE ANYI. EBE ONYE BI KA ONA-AWACHI:
Call it pride, call it immodesty, we are confident in announcing that Anambra State ranks first ahead of all other South-Eastern States in all the indices of good governance and in distribution of dividends of democracy to the citizens. This is a state with the best network of roads in the whole of the Nigerian federation and the least indebted state. From the inglorious era of Dr. Chinwoke Mbadinuju, tremendous efforts have been made to gloriously change the narratives of Leadership model from the time of Dr. Chris Ngige, Mr. Peter Obi and now Dr. Willie Obiano. All these superlative achievements would not have been possible but for the wonderful and well-informed choices made during periodic elections by Anambra citizens. It is therefore a most unfortunate irony and comical that individuals from states that are known to be afflicted with infrastructural bankruptcy and cursed with pronounced leadership convulsion would be seen advising Anambrarians to avoid the polls scheduled for 18th November, 2017. They should tell it to the marines. BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE: In signing off our letter, we wish to remind Your Excellency that you are the Chief Security of Officer [C.S.O.] of this State. All the instruments and legitimate authority of the state are at your disposal. Your hand should be strengthened by this singular fact. May your Administration never go down in history as first democratic government that was put in abeyance owing to the declaration of state of emergency in Anambra state as a result of avoidable security breaches. That would cast a pall of darkness on an administration which has so far carved out a niche for making Anambra the safest state in the whole federation. Such ignominy would be a sad footnote to the sterling achievements so far recorded by your administration. Such sore thumb must be cut off before it becomes gangrenous. Please, Sir, do graciously accept the warmest assurances of our highest esteem. Yours in defence of democracy,
If these fools are really lawyers, then it is time for the real legal practitioners to do something about this idiotic group before it tarnishes the image of legal profession. Even a bad lawyer will argue that boycott is a legal tool of protest and it legally protected under the inalienable right of freedom of association, speech and existence.
deji17: I would rather protest against looters than join #ReturnorResign group - Festus Keyamo
Author: Buchi Obichie
Festus Keyamo noted that the #ReturnorResign protest was very unpopular among Nigerians and that is why they have refused to partake in the protests - According to the legal luminary, what Nigeria needs is a #ReturnToFaceTrial protest against looters hibernating abroad - Keyamo disclosed that he would rather join a protest calling for the resignation of a president on issues of corruption than one whose 'offence' is illness.
Renowned legal practitioner, Festus Keyamo, has taken a stand against those protesting against the continued stay of President Muhammadu Buhari in London as he tends to an undisclosed illness. The legal luminary made his position known in a series of tweets on his handle, @fkeyamo.
This is the foolery that plagued Nigeria since 1960. The so-called looters were not sent from the sky but were appointed by walking-dead such as Buhari who himself is a product of nepotism rather than merit. When people who have no business in the corridors of power found themselves in such a position, they think nothing but embezzlement. It is pity that Festus Keyamo and the posters ahead of my post think nothing about corruption in exception of money loot. Nepotism is the worst aspect of corruption baring none.
Your dream is very funny and had a mixed of reality and imagination. If you are actually a girl, you comment about the dream and your PuSSY is real. However, the imaginary aspect of the dream could manifest into Biafra, Oduduwa and Arewa republics. In all, it was dream of a goofy head.
