Your siggy says "I am a Wailer". What more can one expect of an Ekpa??

But this wailer has more brains than you do. A right thinking person would have researched. A right thinking person, that is.

yommys01:
Nigeria has no privacy laws. Do you think Saraharareports would not have done their legal investigation before releasing it?

My research confirms that they do. Particularly, note these:

LAWS REGULATING MEDIA PRACTICE IN NIGERIA

The basic law of privacy invasion has been simply stated below: -
...
(c). Publicity which places private aspects of an individual in a false light ihe public eye creates a cause of action for invasion of privacy somewhat analogous to libel.

(d). Where statements or depictions are humiliating but true (thereby precluding a libel suit) an actionable invasion of privacy may nevertheless be involved where the facts are entered .private (that is, not part of the public record or visible t public scrutiny) and if made public, would outrage the community's notions of decency.

Based from the above basic laws of privacy, a person's privacy can be invaded when one of the following offences is committed by journalists:

(ii). Offence of Placement in False Light: - This is when you attribute to someone else the views, which he does not hold.

(iv) Offence of Public Disclosure: - Bad publicity, given to the life of someone even though you have fact which is true, is an invasion of privacy. It is said that truth has no defence in this case

II) LAWS OF DEFAMATION
Defamation can be defined as the transmission to a third party, either orally or written, of information which tends to damage the reputation of another person. It is the publication of a statement, which exposes a person to hatred, ridicule contempt and/or causes him to be shunned or avoided by right-thinking members of the society.
.

I guess it's just not being acknowledged.

You are really a wailing wailer according to ur foot note.
You have wailed ur reasoning away.
So that is the summary of the post

Thank you, Gentleman.
You have been noticed.
I hope that boosts your account balance?

cosmicrayboi:
that is leadership by example, law of journalism requires true transparency, and that is absolutely what they are doing..

belike sarahareporters
belike benbruce

Be Like Ben Bruce, I can live with. But Sahara Reporters have built a reputation as a desperate media body. I take their news with a pinch of salt because they really spin tales at will. And there's a big question mark hanging over their professionalism.

ogmaskman:
The characters in question are public figures. Nothing about them should be hidden Realy. That's what the law says.

I think that does it then. But what if the parties involved sues for damages; invasion of privacy? It's different presenting this as an evidence in court and baring it all to incite the public negatively against them because it's just records and nothing concrete.

But thanks for putting me aright.

Is this right? Publishing people's private details in public? Sahara Reporters are overdoing it really. This is something that should have gone through the proper channels, but is being made public for all and sundry.

Smart Move: But on that cash, can you pay for your house rent? If yes, that should be your first budget; saving for the house rent; then, your expenses (feeding inclusive) and finally, the amount of cash you will set aside every month. Living hand to mouth isn't advisable.

Funny. But I love him.

This is one funny budget story. The economy is down and some still want to bleed it.

He was robbed of his face

I think nothing also. Guess we'll wait for the third person

Manchester United have held talks with representatives of ex-Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, the
BBC understands. The 53-year-old Portuguese, who was sacked by the Blues in December, is increasingly hopeful of succeeding Louis van Gaal at Old Trafford. No agreement has been reached, and the club have made no comment, but negotiations have begun.

Come on! Your first five isn't even credible enough! These guys made huge waves. You're just hating man.

A Ph.D that cannot trace his thesis. A Ph.D that sees stealing as not corruption. A Ph.D that told the whole world that how much did Jim Nwobodo stole, a money that cannot buy Volkswagen. What is Jonathan teaching the upcoming children?

A President that cannot locate his SSCE result.
A President that has a porous memory.
A President that sold his countrymen to please his hosts, labelling them criminals.

I'ld rather my child persevered to have his Ph. D someday.

This post reeks of a decent degree of illiteracy.

Decent degree of illiteracy?

For one so literate to attempt to temper a societal disease as grave as illiteracy, you must be treading the waters of abysmal confusion. I know a good psychiatrist.

Halftime!

Lingard shouldn't have started. He's almost ineffectual on his flank! Bring on flair! Bring on Memphis!

So, in your empty head, $3billion and 906 billion naira will be enough to float the budget.

You are forgetting the $2 trillion recovered. You forget

It's not First Class.. I think it's Second Class Upper

Why not just ask him to resign while you're at it?

Imagine if you were employed and you take this kind of vacation at the expense of your job. Your employment status will change before you say 'Bingo'.

oboman:
What's derogatory about that? Any form of work that is legit and making people income is never derogatory, from toilet cleaning to street cleaning.

If we have this attitude that some jobs are derogatory, the alternative of such attitude is unpleasant. People that ought to go to that ''derogatory '' job will take on other sinister vices like prostitution and robbery.

Imagine this: A man used to carry loads off and on containers. Then he was called a porter everywhere he went. Suddenly, luck smiled on him. He became an importer. Should he still be called a porter?

rozayx5:
beats gej in evrything
?

show me one achievement of buhari

Spare the shallow-minded fellow wallowing in the confines of APC propaganda-abyss. Spitting figures like a deranged mathematician. All these monies have been recovered and there is still an active plan in motion to borrow $3 billion.

OneManLegion:
Be kind to yourself and your meagre brain(if you have any; which is really doubtful) and stop being so ludicrous. You've seen Buhari and his classmates in a rendezvous; you saw different Britons congratulating him and saying his integrity, right from their post-graduate days was always commendable; you've heard different igbo ex-servicemen attest to Buhari's scholarship and you're here on Nairaland trying to seem witty at the expense of truth and originality?
Don't be like GEJ: don't be dumb.
I re-assert, PMB bests GEJ effortlessly.

Oga, go sleep. You no get substance. No academician would bother lending credence to this outrageous absurdity. They are incomparable. Leave it at that. I've seen illiterate business moguls command the respect of equally successful foreigners. Does that make him comparable to the erudite next door? Lock up. Talk no dey here, bros.

MrALIVE:
you are a fool for calling your president such names! ..

But you also called a President the same thing. Does that make you a fool as well? Or are you going to deny this post?

MrALIVE:
Your desperation for power can make you do anything! Useless man

OneManLegion:
..Buhari bests GEJ at everything.

LMAO.. You're crazy, Nigga.

That illiterate? Really?

He's the President; deserves our respect and all-but hey, you're comparing a Ph. D holder to a secondary school dropout for Christ sake. Cut down on the irony.

Sammyashol:
President Muhammadu Buhari says
..I recall that the first trip I had was to go to Chad and Niger. The trip was mainly
because of Nigeria’s security.”

I recall a certain aspirant lamented before the elections that Nigeria was seeking aid from countries like Chad and Niger. How times change.

Whom else?
GEJ..

Pre-colonial administration in Nigeria (HISTORY)

Imagine if you had given such excuses before the elections.
