Why is Sowore picking fight with everyone? What is he intend to achieve with such behavior.

Oga stop being a Supporter and an Enabler of crimes,corruption and impunity in Nigeria!!

Where is your conscience and morals and sense of good judgement.

Just because a morally-decrepit character like Wike is being used by the President... who's your Kinsman.. should not mean you shouldn't call a spade by it's name.

Supporting such characters is why Nigeria is where it is today.

We won't allow that.

Burob:
Well shame on you, wey no contribute anything.

Very unwise comment...

Don't you know that almost all the over 200 million Nigerians contributed to this money?

As long as anyone buys and consumes goods and services...do money transfers...is an Employee or Employer,most of all that money is our taxes.

The rest are from resources in our lands...

...not from the Land of the President.

Can you see His contributions now.

Be wise going forward

This is pure Vendetta against those who do not support Okpebholo...especially PDP People.

If not... is this how to fight Cultism?

I thought suspected or known cultists should be discreetly investigated,incontrovertible proofs and evidence gathered against them,then prosecuted and sent to prison,then the houses can now be confiscated and converted to other uses?.

But the Governor thought otherwise.

He's not mindful of what becomes of him when he's no longer in power.

casualobserver:
its actually PDP that introduced thuggery to Lagos politics Many of you were not alive or too young in 1999/2003.

Educate us bro.

We were "too young" then.

At what point did PDP use their influence...as State government... to recruit organised Political thugs working as NURTW

Please try and Educate we "the Young"

gasparpisciotta:
It can never be Okoya.

The looks definitely have them away

Look closely.

The one without beards.

He's the Okoya.

The idiot is in for a very long ride. He is as good as dead.
What pains me is the whataboutism of my Igbo brothers and sisters. Many are condemning his arrest saying that those in the north haven't been arrested.

They are okay with Gentle turning the East into another killing field just because Boko Haram are doing same up north

Which Igbos are "Condemning" his Arrest?

You don't know "your Igbo brothers"!

If you know them well,you'll know that almost ALL Igbos hate Gentle de Yahoo and Simon Ekpa.

Only a few Igbos (not more than 8,000 of them out of over 60 million) are supporters of Gentle & Ekpa's Auto-pilot faction.(And they're only mostly online).

So except you are the type who enjoys controversial talk-talk and mischief,you ought to know that Igbos are not happy with the destructive activities of the likes of Gentle and Ekpa.

Don't gaslight anyone for fun.

RealityKings1:
Since he will be gone for 3 years, he ought not be replaced. He is still alive.
When the sentence is finished, he'll come back

What the f...?!!

You mean his subjects will accept him back?

What kind of people are those?

Felabrity:
Apc and lies

Even yarimo no fit believe this crap

You're right bro.

This is obviously a lie and a campaign propaganda!!

Yarimo is a case study in Political fanaticism but you see this piece of news...

...something in him will rebel against this one even if he tactically appears not to show it.

Peterobiisathie:
My brothers from the other side of River Niger never disappoint

Thank God you know they are "Your brothers from the other side of River Niger"

Your brothers in Crime.

When they left their villages and came to Lagos to hustle many years ago,Some of them where lured by your people and introduced to this illicit trade.

Your people later choosed a route they are more comfortable with; the Saudi-Arabia and middle-East and Brazilian route!!

All the published names of culprits from these routes are your people.

Google it and see

You all know this but choose the reverse Psychology tactics to divert attention and push a cancel-culture narratives on "Your brothers"!!

Be shaming for yourselves sometimes.

Are you sure bitter and Vengefull family members of the deceased are not at work here?

The abuse she's alleged to have suffered was never an issue but her death necessitated the need to highlight those abuses.

Na the death dey pain Dem.(Supposedly so)

Because infidelity of husbands in marriages..
..though not advisable.. is commonplace in the African society and most African Women has learned to cope with it(At least it's better than bringing in a second wife wey go come show her pepper).

This victim coped with it like others and was travelling abroad to improve herself and distract herself from the Experience(s)

Unfortunately she fell sick and died?

Why trying to send the Young man to jail when he's not the Murderer?

If he abused her,it's wrong.Very wrong.

But he didn't kill her

LegendHero:
If any Fulani today proclaim himself as Emir of Lagos, he go see shege just like this.

Even all the Sarkin Hausa/Fulani in Lagos are not troublemakers, they don’t even go around condemning Lagos and wishing her downfall. Na only one group dey do all these things and we self don sabi how to treat them.

Much Ado about nothing!!

This is incident did not happen.

Let's assume...without conceeding..that it happened,why making a fuss out of it?

Do these ones look like threats to Yorubas?

A whole Yorubas?

Do these ones look like the real illustrious Igbos that Serious-minded Yorubas should worry about?

Na wao!!

No bi Pettiness bi dis? Caused by Political desperation?

Some mischief makers are out there pushing this misinformation for the purposes of Dividing Nigerians because of politics,and you're getting worked up about it!!

You people should stop rambling and prattling over inconsequential things.

You particularly

You're a grown man o

zero8zero:
How is it that you became poor and broke after the civil war but Ojukwu who was the architect of the war was not broke after the war? 🤣🤣🤣
You can't be distributing wealth and 90% of your people are running away in night buses to other region to survive 🤣, barren region.

Someone who is an IDP in Enugu & Ebonyi is talking about insecurity in another man's region, the joke is on you

You're so Ignorant and so classless!

Oga travel and see!

In the entire Nigeria,Only Lagos and Abuja competes with the cities,towns and suburbs in the SouthEast in terms of structural and infrastructural Development,commerce,industrialisation and Economic activities.

Travel and see.

Apart from the headquarters of some Banks and multi-nationals and the bursting port activities in Lagos,Onitsha is better developed and more commercialised than Lagos!

Travel and see or ask your people who have travelled.

The overexagerated stories you hear about insecurity in the SouthEast happens only in one LGA area in Imo state;

Ask people who shuttles daily to the SouthEast

That the Enterprising Igbo travels all over the World to set up businesses like the Chinese,Lebanese and Indians should not be misinterpreted to mean that their regions are suffering.

Show you're not ignorant.

zero8zero:
Ipob, is this you 🤣🤣. How can distributing wealth stops you from becoming a billionaire?. How much do you settle the boy you picked up from the village to serve you like a slave after how many years of serving you?. How much do you settle these boys after serving you that will reduce your wealth? 🤣🤣. Abeg shift.
Any system does not focus on Education or self development is not distributing wealth.

I said there aren't Dollar billionaire of Igbo extraction because their head start as rich Businessmen in Nigeria was cut short by the Pogrom and civil war that destroyed and stole their wealth!

The second reason is that...after the civil war,they immediately did not have any government apparachits and patronage to easily become dollar billionaires like Dangote,Etc.

Got it?

Anyways,I think it's narrow-minded of you to assume that every opposition to APC's Presidency is IPOB!

Bandits,kidnappers and Herdsmen are killing and torturing your people in Kwara and Kogi,Ogun and Ondo But you turn a blind eye to that and focused on calling everyone IPOB.

IPOB is fighting the structural imbalance of the country,the injustices and the menace of Fulani herdsmen...the best way they feel the country will hear.

I don't support Violence of any kind and may not like certain things they've said or alledged to have done,but they have the right to self-determination...like Igboho's Yoruba Nation and the OPC!

Not understanding these things and hurling careless words about belittles you!!

Take note

Again I said something that other Black African Ethnic groups should learn from;

There are about 20 million Igbos who're already billionaires..in Naira... while majority of others are multi-millionaires in hundreds of millions and others in tens of millions?

Their unique empowerment culture made this so!!

Being a Dollar billionaire is not of any use to anyone if it doesn't benefit the majority of their people.

flokii:
Hardened criminals.. they are the ones stealing car parts, selling fufu to unsuspecting victims in Computer Village, mixing fake drinks damaging the livers and kidneys of innocent Nigerians all in their quest to make quick money.
Wicked souls.

It's actually your people who are engaging in these things at Computer village;they have no shops,no working capitals and are just roaming around robbing and fleecing people.

You know these but choose to pretend and call the innocent ones"Wicked souls"

You'll receive your judgement one day.

And again...you conveniently forgot that the Biggest Fraudsters in the world are people from your ethnic group!!

Even an Ọbá Has been convicted and jailed in the US apart from the famous ones we know.

The UK govt recently released a list of Wanted Fraudsters and...remarkably..all the names are from your region!!

And as for drug trafficking,the route mostly used by your people are Saudi Arabia and the entire middle-Eatern routes...You know these,but instead of addressing the whole issue of crime generally,you elect to try and smear a particular ethnic group....

...because they "intimidate" you.

Shame.

zero8zero:
One funny thing about ipob is their lies and they lie and chestbeat at the same time yet no official records validates any of their claims. A man and a journalist had a beer parlour gist over a bottle of beer about igbos being the highest billionaires yet till date, none have appeared in Forbes top list.

Listen to this...

...out of a total population of about 65 million Igbos...

....over 20% are Billionaires...but not in dollars!

Millions of them are Billionaires in Naira,not in dollars!

This is because,going by the Self-made nature of this Igbo billionaires...who were Unsupported by the corrupt Nigerian system...like the system supported Dangote and etc,.And Having been set back by the Civil war which suddenly destroyed and stole all their riches,to reach the dollar billionaire mark by now is a challenge...

... but wetin Dem wan really take am do?

Afterall, the Igbo Billionaires are Compelled by an Igbo "Nwaboyi"Culture which forces them to distribute and empower other Igbos with their money,expertise,experience,contacts and even clients and customers.

One wealthy Igbo must...must..teach hundreds of other Igbos his business for seven years,then settle them with almost half of the worth of his business.

How can you easily be a dollar billionaire when you have wealth to distribute

What sense does it make when two or three(2or3 only) Yorubas or Hausas are Dollar billionaires but 150 million others are in abject poverty.

These mentality of chasing shadows and leaving substance is what baffles Igbos about some of una;(no bi say Igbos dey arrogant or something)

Softmirror:
That was when he was making you all very happy with unfounded allegation. 😂😂😂 The moment he discovered that it was all false he changed and started supporting Tinubu. Same with the Chicago Certificate, which himself personally went to investigate and his findings convinced him the more to support Tinubu.

Reno has never changed his mind on the Drug Lord case.He still knows that Tinubu was a drug Lord.

Reno only changed his mind on the Chicago certificate case.He went there and saw Tinubu's name in their register; but still wonders how it really got there.

As for the drug case,it's still a proven case...in the files of the FBI...undebunked by anyone.

osuofia2:
Reno sabi burst all those fairy tales. I like the facts he gives evidence and proofs.
I have come to believe the old lie that the queen rode on Sir Louis Chaveur.
Thank you Reno for the truth

Keep "believing" Reno at your own Peril.

Didn't you hear where they reported that at that time there was more than one Rolls-Royce in Nigeria?

Sir Louis..who lives in Lagos.. have one and the relics is still parked at Nnewi till today! See?(Reno didn't debunk wether sir Louis had one or not)

Then when the queen arrived Nigeria,was it not to the Capital...Lagos she first touched down?

Did they have to drive a Rolls Royce all the way to Kano for the Queen when there's one owned by the wealthiest man in Nigeria?

Sir Odumegwu Ojukwu's money may not have touched the "Billion dollar" mark at that time,but his Millions of dollars threshold of that time made him the richest in Africa at that time.

Focus on Reno's character don't ever trust on the spins on his messages.

Be warned about Reno.

Cmanforall:
Knew it will be France

Something is going on between Tinubu and the French government

Not "french government"...

But...

French Hospital.

You dey learn?

heracles1:
these trips are paelrt of his yorubanization agenda

The silliest comment of the day.

Collect your award.

What has Ethnicity got to do with an insensitive President whose stock-in-trade is to continuously squander our money on frivolous estacodes..day in day out

Bringing Ethnicity into it will only provoke some of his unthinking tribesmen into supporting him without a care of the consequences of his actions.

Except you are one of his tribesmen trying to provoke ethnic sentiments to cover him up and divert attention,pls don't derail the conversation

FaAbData:
What happens to going to his home in Lagos for the vacation? What serious deal about vacation, is it no to rest somewhere. He can even satu in Abuja there on a ghost mode for the 10 days. Wasting money up and down. This is one of the two reasons I would have preferred Obi

Bro,I no go lie for you...the only reason I'm passionate about Peter Obi is just this his no nonesense attitude to corruption and wastefulness and his proven character with money management.

It won't be easy to see any Nigerian politician solve Nigeria's multi-faceted problems(like Profligacy,corruption and mediocrity) but at least we can be sure with Peter Obi that our money will be judiciously,accountably,efficiently and mathematically applied to solve pressing National problems.

But Peter Obi's Electoral strength(being "stingy" with money) might be his weakness at the Elections.

These corrupt thieves will buy the conscience of voters.

See?

They don't even care what Nigerians think of these constant travels,vacations and Medical tourism...

If it is for Medical purposes,can't they quietly fly in the doctors so as to save them the Embarrassment of what Nigerians will say..

If opposition people complain now,they'll send out thousands of online bandits to shut up the opposition!

Can we grow like this,ni tori olorun?

89green:
This is why Nigeria is perfectly backwards. Lots of Nigerian leaders who have ruined the nation are out there scot free. The judiciary should learn from Ekpa's conviction but na lie. Where are the boko haram sponsors today, nowhere to be found right? And you are here saying something else

I agree with you that our Judicial system should be very efficient enough...and fast enough....to fight the ills,the crimes and corruption in the system!

That's what I was saying; revisit my earlier comments and check.

I agree that we have a large cesspool of corrupt leaders,past,present and...future?

But right now the issue at hand is about dealing with Terrorists,bandits,kidnappers,Fulani Herdsmen attacks,"unknown gunmen",Etc,

Out Judiciary should copy Finland.

fuckJones:
Everybody is happy with ekpa arrest except ipob and their leader who contest for 2023 election

Oga Take am easy with your mouth.

Even in the IPOB group itself,many of them are happy with this Ekpa's conviction.Ekpa's extremism divided the group.

Now all Well-meaning Igbos are very happy but you don't expect them to rush out and start openly talking and Jubilating when some of Ekpa's boys are still mingling freely about and our security system is abysmal.

Get the drift and rein in your tongue

MadPolitician:
The corruption involved in the way the Finish authorities ran through this strange rulling after their government officials visited Nigeria few years ago, will one day be revealed. It has always been about using nigerias hydrocarbons as a bargaining chip to get international support for the oppression of the eastern part of Nigeria. The same way the sponsorship of Nigerias war against Biafra by the UK and SHELL has been exposed. Bakassi too..

Obviously there is a good chance that some oil wells and gas fields were tossed around to curry favours. But the truth will come out someday. For the Finish court to declare the agitations of a people for freedom as a terrorist activity, isn't just mind-boggling but also highlights in clear terms the international conspiracies that have been used to hold Biafra down for ages..

But as Biafra lays on the ground, so is Nigeria in a pepertual comatose state..

Oga you have been brain-washing yourself with conspiracy theories...

...extremist sects all over the world often invent conspiracy theories to console themselves or give impetus to their nefarious agendas and activities.

Go and read the Finland's judgement on Ekpa; they agreed that everyone has a right to self determination but...

...the Terrorism involved is not acceptable; how can you go about killing,maiming,burning and holding your people hostage in the name of fighting for wetin the very same people no even send you to go fight for?.

And you're justifying it!!

Tufia gi kwa!

89green:
See who dey talk, you lots should be in jail alongside Ekpa if this Country wasn't made lawless by your likes

Always learn to concentrate on the message...the message...and leave the messenger.

The message is that justice has been served,expeditiously,fairly and clinically.

Nigeria and other "banana republics" should learn from this.

Innocent victims of Simon Ekpa's activities can get some kind of closure.

Other secret or open Biafran or Yoruba Nation or Niger-deltan or Islamic Nation agitators should learn from this; Channel your agitations through the Legal routes or die in jail.Simple.

I know for sure that there are thousands of Noble,capable and powerful persons in the PDP.

They'll Clip Wike's wings and deal with him decisively very soon.

Wait untill they flush out Wike's moles in the coming PDP Convention at Ibadan.

[quote author=helinues post=136650381]Delude yourself at your own risk....

What is LG Elections compared to Presidential Elections?

Voter apathy,lack of awareness and little interest often characterize LG or by-Elections...

...therefore,riggers can have a field day.

But you see Presidential Elections,Everybody will be Focused there and ready to Lynch any rigger.

If You know what Obidients Are planning For 2027,You'll tremble!

It certainly wasn't directly fuelled by Ethnic rivalry.

But indirectly, Ethnic profiling which creates wrong impressions & wrong perceptions of a whole Ethnic group, is at the root of this!!

The demons of Ethnicism and Nepotism will not only continue to strangulate Nigeria,it'll certainly destroy us all;

Business Relationships,friendships and marriages are destroyed at the altar of Ethnic jingoism and children suffer most of the destroyed interethnic marriages.

All these disharmony are engineered and re-engineered by Politicians through their social media misecreants....especially here on Nairaland,Twitter,Facebook and tiktok!!.

Since 2015 and worsened by Tinubu's loss of Lagos to Obi in 2023!

You'll not achieve that your silly aim of Ethnic Erasure; wether you're Igbo,Hausa,Fulani or Yoruba,so quit trying and seek peace or cancer will kill you!!

You or your tribesmen may be worse for it cos no tribe has monopoly of violence!

And...those instigating these tensions are not usually the victims!!

The newly passed CyberCrimes laws should immediately start baring it's fangs!!

[quote author=Dennisochampa post=136587041]The usual suspects and I'm not surprised....
Are you saying that the Bad governance we are experiencing in Nigeria is caused by the activities of Nigerians abroad?

The silliest comments I've heard this year....

Tinubu's failed performance is shaming you,so people like you do or say anything possible to divert attentions from Tinubu's failure.

Anyways, your tribesmen are even the worse Drug traffickers that these ones mentioned here...

...to the extent that the number one citizen amongst your tribesmen is a confirmed Drug dealer!!

The Axis of drug trade by your people and the Northerners are Saudi Arabia and the gulf states.

Everyday we hear reports of their illicit drug activities but Why those ones don't get brought out to Nairaland I don't understand!!

So it's pure hypocrisy to always quickly blame only one tribe as the only culprits....

... But whatever anyone seeks to achieve with that is dead-on-arrival.

Drug trafficking and other criminal activities is perpetrated by Nigerians of all tribes...
