How is champions league the biggest competition?? 😂😂😂

World cup na joke to you?

Nice. Which club was the last to win it?

Yes, read what you quoted.

G10 countries: Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States.

G-ICC countries: South Africa, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Comoros, Djibouti, and Venezuela.

Lobbying is necessary for this endeavour to gain traction. For now, the world powers are minding their business.

I taught in that school last year. You should see the way the children, particularly male and few female behaves, you will shake your head.
Majority of the male students are being negatively influence by drugs, yahoo, and all manners of influences. They talk recklessly, act like taut, talk like drunkers and smokers, from JSs1 to SS3.

Damn.

How do you easily shake off such an experience if you have to deal with kids again? 🥲

Is he the first to say that?

The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun said so.. He is also unfit?

APC stalwart, Senator Adams Oshiomole also claimed the same in a conference. He has lost his mettle?

On what grounds did Tinubu campaign? Wasn't it to revive a failed state? Renewed Hope..No? What's all that about?

Y'all can be weirdly amnesic, to be honest. If it's a personal battle between the author and Ribadu, it should be stated as such. This denying the foundations is weird asf.

DarkLover:
Currently listening to Mohbad’s Feel Good. So sad he’s gone mehnn.

RIP Imole🕊️

Warning to Bella Shmurda. Your bromance was with Mohbad, not with his family.

I understand it feels like a betrayal to just turn back on Mohbad, but even the earth knows you were true to him.

Let him go, Bella. You've repped every inch of your part 🤜🏾🤛🏾

Just re-watched the video where Bella Shmurda called Mohbad on Video chat and they had a brotherly banter. 🥲

That James nwafor would bebin one pounce command somewhere in this country quietly collecting salary and probably doing evil.

Nigeria is Nigeria.

Now that you mention it, where is James Nwafor?

We didn't hear of his arraignment or dismissal after all his antics at Anambra.

Na ur papa dey stupid !!!

Love and Light, brother ♥️💡

aQUINandmore:
just to post news and move ahead you started calling igbo, hausa and yoruba and you are still writing epistle to ask questions. Na wa

What's your problem with that exactly? Speak in clear tongues.

Beolly:
If it happens at home it's a lie, if it happened in Kaduna, Sokoto or Lagos it is true and nothing but the truth.

Love and light, brother.

Criticise the message as you read it.

DUMB & Demented IPOB cannibal masturbating to a simple phone auto correct error.

Your phone dictionary doesn't have tribalize in it?

Niceeee😎

bodeyX:
We are not the same people !! Yorubas are not Igbos. We are NOT the same people !!!

Obviously.

However, you do not need to be from a particular tribe to be sensible..or stupid.

Asking you not to tribalism issues in Nigeria

What? 🤣

Omo.. 🤣 Even now that dollar has gone way overboard, the highest quality of that TV costs around 100k due to inflation.

Why do these public servants not look forward to their retirements as if it's a call to suffer? Perhaps the uncertainty around their pensions plays a role too.

Corruption and Fighting Back. Plaindealer, you can only try. 90% your posts are sponsored against someone from the other side.

We recently saw Doherty's submission with documentation, facts and figures to boot. But here, we have random figures being thrown about without any solid documentation as evidence of the claims from PDP era. The Ekcon Consults that cooked up this graphic does not exist on the Internet. Yeah, I searched. I always do.

I'm sorry but you'd need more than that to sway the Otti foundation that wasn't bought with inducement of citizens. 😎

stuffs2002:
Shame on you.. Why are you making this issue a tribal thing

I've had two people react negatively to my pointing out that humanity transcends tribal affiliation.

You and 'aQUINandmore' have reacted negatively to that. More of a concern are the kind of posts both of you share around this forum. I had to take a look as I didn't understand why you are unhappy.

I have to ask for clarity; is there another reason both of you are concerned about a call for oneness? 🤔

AsabaPropertyAg:
The House of Representatives has called on the Federal Government to provide body cameras to be attached to officers and men of security agencies in Nigeria and create situation rooms across the country to monitor their activities.

That will go a long way to address this problem.

successmatters:
Your hate filled mind is restless 😕

Well, such negative energy based on false foundation is never sustained for long. The brain eventually resets in the face of reality.

It has become 'Doherty claims' even though what was posted is from official LASG records.

Journalism and twisting facts.

OAFMods:
..you have no idea the disdain I hold for anything Igbo.

I have a couple of quick question though..

How long do you think you can feed this hate? Just during your youth or till old age?

Do you intend to pass it on like a tradition to your wards? family?

Do you show this hate to the people around you or it's just a Nairaland thing?

profbrightuzoma:
The government should try n investigate all prisons in Nigeria.. just last month an innocent boy was caught around umuahia simply the policemen asked him a particular direction and the man felt like directing them so he entered thier vehicle hoping to give them direction and go .. unfortunately he was detained till now he is still there...the problem of these policemen is that they purposely detained them so that they can pay for bail which atimes ranges from 150k in naira and above... the cell is at umuahia state cid...the government should check all Police cells all over ...and the worst thing is that as soon they catch u they immediately switched off ur phones

My God.

Or scenes where 'Missing Person' was reported in one station, not knowing he/she is detained in another station for one reason or the other.

There is need to revisit all these cases, especially the ones that have never made court.

success1smyn:
You didn't get my point actually.
I know tribalism can't get us anywhere and I don't like People that are tribalist. I was only trying to show how far we are deep in tribalism, that's why I said we have not learnt anything from the video.

I'm so sorry I missed that. I only saw the surface meaning.

Of course, tribalism's a dirty thing. Imagine not living your best life because you're reserving energy for 'hating' those not of your kind.

I do hope we have reasons to come out for one another more.

Half a year after selection and guess what is still dominating the headlines?

Even when we just dey, dem still dey rush us 😎
Just as Without good, evil cease to have meaning; Without us, they have no relevance.

It's a good thing that the relevant agency swung into action immediately. Those learners will need to be rehabilitated en masse. I guess the way to get anything done in this country is to give the problem huge publicity.

All these 'so-called' patriots who say we should silently follow proper channels of communications or speaking against striking workers in the recent instant forget that Nigeria is a country with third world problems.

success1smyn:
No we are not learning anything as we can never learn in Nigeria. To us everything is tribalism.

I beg to disagree. Not everything is tribalism. Tribalism is allowing ethnic coloration to overrule common sense. This video clearly shows humanity transcends all of that petty tribal nonsense. But if you have laid your bed, then by all means, enjoy it 😎

Bigkoko:
Even the said Gambo Bawa wey possibly commit the crime, don go bail himself, but the innocent person dey prison dey suffer

I weak, my brother. If not for the intervention of the Barrister, he'd have still been imprisoned, believing it's a case of mistaken identity 💔

aQUINandmore:
post news and go bros.
There's no need for all these ethnic name calling, "igbo trader, my yoruba friend, a surname similar to bla bla bla."
I have seen this news in several platforms and there was no form of ethnic coloration.

I understand why you feel hurt seeing so many tribes united for peace. Same reason you have so many hidden posts in your catalogue. You are what you represent.

Desist from such living. It's unhealthy.

Will people ever rest?

All these race to become a developed country over what? To be hunting for excuses to go to war.

We cannot say we should hide in our homes to keep away from Police trouble. We just pray it doesn't happen to us as we go about our daily lives.

I watched this video with my Yoruba best friend. I'm Igbo by tribe. It took a man whose surname is similar sounding to his to condemn his right forelimb. It took an Igbo man to first let people know his situation and to direct him to where the world can hear his story.

Help can come from anywhere. I hope we are learning some important lessons.

This is a video story shared by Brekete Family. It is about the ordeal of a Nigerian citizen in the hands of the Nigerian Police Force.

Solomon Bawa hails from Ajaga Family in Karo LGA of Nasarawa State.

In 2019, he was on his way to repair the tyre of his pickup when he was accosted by the Police who asked him if he knew any Bawa Gambo. He replied in the negative but they asked him to enter their vehicle to follow them to the station at Masaka.

On reaching there, they asked about his identity again and he told them his name, Solomon Bawa. After pressuring him to identify as Bawa Gambo and not getting a result, they took away his belt and shoes, then locked him up in a cell until daybreak.

He kept asking why he was locked up and got no response. Instead he got beaten and later transferred to State CID, Lafia. Here, he was beaten repeatedly and forced to identify as Bawa Gambo or tell them the whereabouts.

An Igbo trader who saw him, travelled to Solomon's home on his behalf, to inform his family of what is going on. His mother came to attest that his name is Solomon but was given no attention. Instead, he got beaten by one Inspector Usman Amgbashi to the extent that he got his forehead injured and lost his entire right arm to shrinking and paralysis.

Another Policeman, Inspector Ado Bature, advised him to accept the identity of Bawa Gambo or face more beating, especially as it was getting too much and may lead to his death and nothing will happen. Solomon had to accept, in the hopes that when he gets to court, he can explain himself. But this was not to be as he spent some months there. The only visitor he frequently had, his mother, died about 2 months after he had been held at the State CID.

After then, no one visited anymore and Solomon could not help crying everyday, at his loss. He was then transferred to Lafia Prison without being charged to court. He spent about 3 years in prison until he met with the Comptroller and explained his situation and ill-health. He was then transferred to Keffi Prison, where he spent another year but was getting some form of treatment on the now deformed hand.

Respite came in the form of a human rights lawyer, Barrister C.Y. Masha, who listened to his story when she came to the Prison. She took it upon herself to verify his identity by going to his hometown and retrieving his certificates, then pursued the matter until he was due to appear in court. It turns out that the said 'Bawa Gambo' had already appeared and bailed himself at the State CID while Solomon remained imprisoned.

After the first court session, the police never showed up again, despite Musa making multiple appearance with his lawyer, Barrister C.Y. Masha. He was then asked to provide two surety so he can be bailed, which he did. He went to retrieve his phone from State CID. He saw Inspector Usman Amgbashi, approached him and greeted him. He proceeded to tell him that he came for his phone but was warned never to step his foot there again or get beaten.

On October 4, after another no-show at the courts by the Police, he was advised by the same Igbo trader to go to Brekete Family to tell his story and possibly, get justice.

Today, the matter is being handled by the IGP himself, who called for a thorough investigation.

It's a bag of mixed fortunes ahead for Solomon, who now has to get justice with a deformed right hand, a permanent scar on his head, a late mother and four years of his life gone 'for nothing'

Police Reaction

Recall a recent viral video highlighting allegations of injustice and brutality? Today, the IGP took personal interest and attended to the case. Mr. Bawa accused police operatives at Nasarawa CID of wrongful detention and brutality. The IGP promptly ordered a team at FHQ to thoroughly investigate this matter, ensuring swift action for justice. Rest assured, justice will prevail. Thank you.

Does the Attorney General of the Federation know that this is against the UN Convention against Terrorist Financing?
