Sensiblerealist: And who told you that they both would still be in APC then; or that APC will be in existence as a party. Naija politicians wey be say na their stomach dey show where to go
Anything can happen Who says me or you will even be alive then
Mabuggi88: And vote themselves. Charity begins at home. No one knows them in the East. Ordinary Peter MBA with beat both of them combined in any election in the east. If your people don't vote you, it will be very difficult to win
tiamiyukunle69: People dey chop money for Naija sha. $50k is a lot of cash belonging to someone's wife in this economy. Due process should be followed. Let the law take its full course.
That's why they want to keep it out of SM Questions will be asked as per how she came about the money...... Everybody is in on the arms money, infact the whole fight against insurgency has become one big cash cow
ERockson: Confirmed. Infact, Obi and Abure will soon settle their difference and Obi will get LP ticket and In the process, the muumus will still donate and stakeholdersLAWYERS will make money
Those were the winners of 2023, all the shishi he refused to spend during election naim them collect clean mouth
Annoyingly, those who have refused to be making use of their free gifted senses would believe this. Annoyingly
I was wondering how many millions he will spend and if he has that much money..... At least 50 people. But watched the videos and realized he spent just 3m, he can afford that
SmartPolician: So, this formidable coalition will help mobilize people who can protect his votes across the country.
Fair point.
If he had listened and made sure there are real agents at each polling station as opposed to using volunteers while screaming we no dey give shi shi The shi shi he no spend to protect his votes was used to pay lawyers that couldn't tell him the truth to his face and simply collected his money.
Ikumapkayi: The elites are the problem of Nigeria. How can you owe ground rents for 34 years. They wouldn't try that if they have properties in UK. This is the reason why we need educated people with ''Abgeroism'' mentality to lead us. We don't need people who will just be doing analysis-paralysm. All they speak is grammar no action.
No blame for the agency that didn't do it's job abi Wetin Dem dey look for a while 34 years
If there's no consequences for people who didn't do their jobs like this , no change should be expected
Offpoint1: Lol 😂 Nigeria police being suspended because of bribe? 😂 Their Ogas at the top are aware and they submit percentage to them.
They'll only be suspended on camera, go home to relax for a month and return to work on transfer.
The only crime Nigeria police can truly be suspended on his murderer or caught in robbery.
I'm telling as a police son who has spent half of my life in barracks.
They ll suspend you on media with camera, then oga send you home to go rest for a month or 3. Months if you're not in oga sweet book.
Even those that killed innocent people, some can be call back after a year or 2, if they have connections. Your case will be fought as "An accidental discharged"
If they were truly being suspended you think police would still risk taking bribes knowing camera is everywhere in this era?
True talk
And that unfortunately is the reason why bribery and corruption can't stop in Police even if you pay the least policeman 10million naira monthly, it's a systemic problem
Glimpsetv: A traveler has shared an encounter with a Nigerian police officer who demanded a bribe despite the suspension of the Electronic Central Motor Registry (e-CMR) policy. The incident occurred along the Benin Bypass, where the officer reportedly asked the travelers to either pay ₦5,000 or provide 5 litres of fuel.
This happened despite the recent suspension of e-CMR enforcement, as previously announced by the Inspector-General of Police (IGP).
You may recall that the Nigerian Police had earlier announced that enforcement of the controversial e-CMR would begin on July 29, 2024. Under the policy, vehicle owners without the e-CMR would have faced sanctions.
However, the announcement was met with widespread criticism. The Nigerian Bar Association even issued a one-week ultimatum, demanding that the police reverse the decision.
In response to public outcry, the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, Ph.D., NPM, ordered the immediate suspension of the proposed enforcement originally scheduled for July 29.
In the now-viral video shared by the traveler, the police officer is seen ignoring the travelers’ pleas and openly demanding a bribe of ₦5,000 or 5 litres of fuel from those without the e-CMR. The footage later shows the travelers handing over cash, which the officer takes and carefully counts.
During the exchange, one of the travelers asked the officer, “What’s the problem?” The officer replied, “e-CMR.” The traveler responded, “e-CMR is illegal,” to which the officer said, “You can make a call.” The traveler replied that he had no one to call and then asked the officer what he wanted them to do. The officer answered, “5 litres of fuel.”
The traveler pointed out, “There’s no fuel station around here. Where do you expect us to get the fuel?” The officer replied, “You can just go and get it.” Realizing the officer was asking for money, the traveler asked, “How much is 5 litres of fuel?” The officer responded, “₦5,000.”
The travelers pleaded to pay ₦3,000 instead. One of them explained that they were returning from their grandmother’s burial and that ₦3,000 was all they could afford. The officer, however, showed no interest in their story.
As the video continues to circulate widely on social media—especially on X (formerly Twitter)—many Nigerians have expressed outrage over the officer’s actions and called for accountability.
Watch the viral video and share your thoughts in the comments.
SmartPolician: Who has noticed that while Goodluck Jonathan made efforts to get Almajiris off the streets by building them decent schools, Tinubu hasn't even mentioned lifting these folks off the streets?
No wonder he clearly stated that he has no plans for northern Nigeria. He just needs their votes and to enjoy his turn (Emilokan)
This is commendable, it will surely win him some new admirers His main problem that's hindering him from having good rapport with other tribes and religion is his support base that's mainly igbos.
Double0h7: You have to be very young, I hope you're very young to think like this. life isn't about money! There's so much more! Money isn't even 25% of life. There are millions of rich people (young and old) on hospital beds unable to buy health. Many more unable to buy love, friendship, respect, honour or any offer of real human connections.
That's why I said many won't wanna wish to experience such again now. See Old man (cos you opine that I'm young, but im not ) you don't have to believe in what I believe you can just make your observations and move on Seem to me you dey take life too serious for my liking but I won't begrudge you for that,it's your choice
Double0h7: You have a flawed understanding of life! Life isn't paradise! Rich and famous people commit suicide. While Palestinians still fight for their life. Life is not some fairytale for anyone be they rich or poor. It's a journey into the unknown.
Taaa How many rich people commit suicide compared to the numbers,it's insignificant The vast majority of rich people live a life of paradise. Life is not a fairytale for Most of the inhabitants of planet earth and most don't wish to experience it again.
RickyJesus: Come on, all those are part of what makes life interesting in a way. I am not in the mood at the moment to write a philosophical argument that was base on that.
To those who live a good life, will someone who bedeviled with poverty wish to come back again to poverty? Theres no guarantee he will come back to wealth Or that he will live a disease free life It's almost certain that he may find himself in Gaza, under constant Israeli bombardment that will eventually kill him In infancy Or Maybe a violent herdsman will kill him in his sleep in his village
UnknownQueen: Don't worry even if u reincarnate, u won't remember the former things, so it's safe to say we are our ancestors who reincarnated
Coming back to all these sufferings and wars and poverty should scare anyone. There's no guarantee you will come back into wealth, it's almost certain you wont
TotoIsGud4boy: Who termed it extortion? Didn’t they refund the school fees to the problematic parent? What exactly do you want? They said NO MORE, and you’re shouting regulatory body. Keep crying wolf. Is it now by force to accommodate a client I’m not interested in? What happened to taking No for an answer? Oh you wanna fight dirty by calling in regulatory body? Over one parent? When there’s millions of schools out there…. Reminds me of a toxic EX.
Also to add, you want the school to not include the “party fee” because it’s irrelevant, might as well say they should fold the business and sit at home. You’re so ignorant you’ve forgotten we’re in a capitalist society. Better get your bag up and quit senseless arguments on nairaland
They were even forced to take that action to refund her. The woman took things too far, she was refunded because she was still making SM posts on the matter even when she has reported to the Ministry of education and they've stepped in as arbitrator. She was also filming the ministry people and when they found her out she ran away from the ministry. That was when they decided to refund her.
