PoliticsRe: Osun: How DSS Busted ISWAP Terrorists Who Posed As Watch Repairers by Difrent: 5:26am On Jan 19, 2025
PressMyButton:
I hope y'all reading and learning how to tackle insecurity. Copy the template and give it to your Governors. This is how to know a region that takes security as priority. Your Governors are collecting security votes but what are they using for?, to carry foreign hOes?, or lavish recklessly?. You keep pampering Ipob terrorists but you keep running to SW for safe abode. Is it until SW enact a law to build a wall around their borders before you take security seriously in your region. We are watching.
The truth is any region that's crime infested it's so because the elites are complicit in the crime or are unwilling to confront it.
South west leaders collectively rejects making the region unstable and have been doing their best to ensure that.
When other regions leaders decide to do like south west leaders, all these criminalities will fade away

CrimeRe: EFCC operative, Halisu Sahabi killed during Awka raid, buried in Sokoto - SR by Difrent: 5:07am On Jan 19, 2025
PresidObi:
Eiyaa

But these security operatives should be trained to handle these types of cases in a professional manner. Maybe the suspect couldn't have shot him if he knew they were EFCC operators whom we know they (fraudsters) are not even afraid of because they will get out quickly due to the corrupt Nigerian system.

He may have resorted to defending himself if he thinks these are more dangerous criminals like kidnappers or armed robbers. The way EFCC will barge into homes without due protocols like arrest warrants, identifying themselves and giving the suspects enough proof to know who they are before jumping over fences and kicking doors down is dangerous for everyone.

In the southern part of Nigeria, some people are so overzealous about crime fighting that they lose their senses in the process. Things they will not attempt in other places, they rush to do because they are already operating with a flawed mindset.

Crime is bad, let's fight it with professionalism.
This case will teach them a lesson and maybe force a review of their operational guidelines.

How can you want to go and catch a criminal and you are behaving worse than the said criminal.

With a very good SAN, he will walk free on self defense claims.
PoliticsRe: Why We Carried Out The January 15th 1966 Coup- Colonel Nwobosi by Difrent: 3:26pm On Jan 18, 2025
franchasofficia:
This is nothing but the truth, my now late uncle was part of them and he told us the same story which I shared here days ago.


Only God knows the truth and the truth will come out one day before those that hate Igbos and think Igbos are too troublesome.


My late uncle only regretted the fact that some of the coup leaders failed to separate tribal sentiment from their actions which made them spare some Igbo leaders marked for elimination should they refuse to cooperate.



Ademoyega also said some of this in his book titled "Why We Struck".


That Jihad war hasn't stopped, they are still on it. Take a look at what they are doing to Middlebelt people today. They are now using Fulani herdsmen who are actually Muslim Jihad Militants trained under Boko Haram, ISWAP, etc to continue the execution of that Islamic Jihad. They showed their hand too early again in Southwest by introducing Sharia law in Oyo state but Yorubas think it's a joke and are focused on attacking Igbos who are actually their best friends they ought to have been working with.



Chief Awolowo later realized the truth and told his kinsmen to work with Igbos because he later saw the truth but his kinsmen believe Igbos are their greatest enemies. Time will teach us all the sad lesson about life.



The coup was supposed to be a revolution but the leaders messed it up by sparing all Igbo leaders making the North to find a reason to deceive the rest of Nigerians to tag it Igbo coup and gangup against Igbos, which messed Igbos up in Nigeria ever since


But my promise to those still working to enforce Moslem Jihad in Nigeria is that you guys are wasting your time, Southeast (Igbos) will never let you succeed. If you want to spread Islam, do it via progressive methods, do miracle to heal people, engage in philanthropic outreach programs to help the poor and needy, spread quality advanced education that will teach people how to research, create solutions to global problems, not outdated Islamic doctrine education that never help societies to develop, preach love and peace, and then use the opportunity to convince people to join your Islam so that their life can become better.

Using guns and sword to spread Islam or force people to become Moslems will never work in Nigeria so long as we Igbos are still part of Nigeria, we will continue to foil that evil plan without apology.
How I wish more igbos like you will come out more often to confront your people with the truth.
The main reason other Nigerians will never agree with this story is the fact that the coup leaders refused to kill fellow igbo leader

If you were not igbo, you would feel exactly the way others feel about igbos.

FamilyRe: Help Needed: How Do I Stop My Wife From Monitoring My Phone? by Difrent: 6:18am On Jan 17, 2025
deluckiest:
For the past 6 years, my wife has been monitoring all my phone lines—MTN, Glo, and Airtel. She screenshots my chats, records my calls, and even gathers proof with pictures. Changing my phone numbers doesn’t help because she says as long as I use my NIN to register a SIM, she can still track everything I do, whether openly or secretly, unless she chooses not to.

I want to put an end to this, but I don’t want to get her into trouble with the law.

Has anyone gone through something like this? How did you handle it? Please share your advice.

Maybe that will reset her brain.
This behavior is a red flag, she won't respect your space and privacy

[quote author=FreeStuffsNG post=133742479][b
Hamas won the war.[/quote]

Simple. That Israel wasn't able to achieve any of its military objectives and Hamas was still able to fire rockets after 15months of mad rage, simply means Israel lost

Once Again the question that begs answering, Has America really ever won any war?
Maybe the mexico wars and conflicts with other South American neighbors it can bully.
Methink the American Military Industrial complex isn't built to win wars, but to be perpetuating wars so that the wheels of the industrial complex will continue turning
And they have civil society allies in NGOs that will immediately move in once a war is over to provide "humanitarian assistance"
And
Construction companies that will rebuild.

So know this and know peace, American Economy runs on wars , conflicts and instability.
The moment the world becomes still and peaceful, America falls. And America will do its best to avoid that
But as it happened to others ,it's fall is inevitable

PoliticsRe: Obasa: "Tinubu Saw he Was recalcitrant, that broke the camel's back' - Oki by Difrent: 5:25am On Jan 14, 2025
Eriokanmi:
Is Fouad Alade Oki just seeing this? Why didn't he speak when tinubu used Obasa to dethrone ambode? We all knew Obasa was a super fraudulent man, just as all the members of the Lagos House of Assembly are. The difference is that, their cups are not yet full. They too can be used and dumped like tinubu did to obasa.

How the best performing governor after pa jakande in such a short time was removed by Tinubu, using mudashiru obasa to stop funds release for the state's massive projects he embarked on, made me know for sure that karma will visit him someday. After ambode's massive order, I've not seen new Blue BRT buses on Lagos roads again. All those ambode ordered came into the country in batches until the last batch was delivered during the 1st tenure of sanwoolu. Imagine same Obasa querying ambode over those buses as if the latter ate the money, just to find baseless excuses to hack the man.

I'm earnestly praying for seyi to vie for Lagos guber, hoping the news to which obasa sharply reacted, which also led to his impeachment wasn't a mere rumour. Then they'd know we're not fools in Lagos. The trap lagosians set for tinubu over his feud with fashola's second term as governor, when we dared him to remove fashola, will catch him this time. I, just like other lagosians voted sanwoolu at the state level to complete the rail project and embark on the 4th mainland bridge which he later dropped after using it to campaign with 8D images, littering the Lagos TV space in 2023 . We're wiser now.

By the way, news on Obasa's removal has really gladdened the heart of agege people today. They were jubilating as seen on my way from work this evening. They call him mr billboards cos that's all they see every election with no visible development in place. All the state assembly members are same. Desmond Eliot's six-foot plank bridge easily came to mind. They believe once elected, nobody dares touch them.
Abegii

Did Ambode use his personal money, its state money and the buses belong to the state.
Ambode really showed he isn't a politician, just like Simi In rivers , he was just the accountant general that found favour with the political elites and was helped to become governor (abi did Ambode become governor on his own?)
The moment he got to power be began to dismantle the structure that brought him to power to build his own structure
Which isn't a bad thing, all seasoned politicians do it
But In his case he miscalculated
And he did so because he wasn't a politician but a career technocrat
You can't beat them in their own game they brought you in to play now
And they showed him.
Big lessons for ungrateful technocrats who thinks they are wiser than the politicians but can't win elections without their help.

Nairaland GeneralRe: Is It True That Short People Are Always Stubborn? by Difrent: 6:43pm On Jan 05, 2025
Nnamdipapa:
Is It True That Short People Are Always Stubborn?

There’s this saying in Nigeria that "na small pepper dey hot pass." It reflects a widespread belief that short people are inherently stubborn or feisty. But is there any truth to this claim, or is it just one of those playful stereotypes Nigerians love to throw around and slap on people?

In Nigeria's cultural context, we thrive on humor and banter. Many of our stereotypes come from lived experiences, observations, and outright exaggerations. The idea that short people are stubborn could stem from the way they’ve been perceived to compensate for their lack of height in a society where "tall" is often equated with leadership or authority.

Short people in Nigeria often develop big personalities to avoid being overshadowed—literally and figuratively. They’re the ones you’ll find arguing loudly in bus parks, defending their positions fiercely at family meetings, or taking leadership roles in unexpected places.

Stubbornness in this context could mean determination, resilience, or simply not taking nonsense from anyone. Many short Nigerians have grown up being teased or underestimated because of their height. This can lead to a natural tendency to assert themselves, proving that "size no be problem."
Consider successful Nigerians who’ve been described as stubborn (in a good way) due to their drive. Isn’t this "stubbornness" simply a trait of people who refuse to let societal biases define them?

Looking at science, researchers suggest that people with perceived disadvantages, such as height, often overcompensate by being more assertive or dominant. However, these are generalizations. Personality is shaped more by upbringing, environment, and experiences than by height.
On the flip side, we know some tall people can be stubborn also. Nigerians will always say, “Everybody get their own wahala.” Stubbornness is not exclusive to short people; it’s a human trait. Some of the most rigid people you’ll meet are tall, quiet, and unyielding.

While it’s fun to joke about these stereotypes, let’s remember that they don’t define anyone. Not all short people are stubborn, just like not all tall people are gentle. Nigerians, regardless of height, are known for their resilience, wit, and ability to thrive in adversity.

So, what is your experience with short people especially the "Maltina bottle" guys?
Its the feeling that everyone is looking down on them that make them behave like that

There no short person I know that doesn't feel this way, I will if I were short
