Westves: Eavesdropping on a gathering of ladies conversing, I was shocked to hear that all of them have fallen victim of these notorious criminals –some, even multiple times. Since I wasn't in their midst, I wasn't able to get the details audibly. Only strategy I could catch is that when the driver asks where you are going, it could be a sign that he's not truly plying that route but fishing for unsuspecting commuters to leave with gory aftermaths such as emptied accounts, parting with their valuables, physical scars
Apparently, one isn't even safe when a lady is an occupant of the vehicle. So for those of us who still board "along", who can be considered jjc, can you suggest tips to avoid such unfortunate tragedy?

The two-day meeting between the Federal Government and the organised labour ended in a deadlock on Tuesday, with the Nigerian Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress leaders vowing to begin a nationwide protest against the removal of fuel subsidy.
This came as oil workers under the aegis of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association began an indefinite strike on Tuesday, citing inhumane treatment by the management of the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, an agency of the Federal Government.
The strike and planned protest by the organised labour slated for Wednesday (today) over the fuel subsidy removal by the Federal Government may shut down the country and paralyse the economy.
Oil workers had earlier on Tuesday staged a protest and shut down the commission’s office in Lagos, while also vowing to shut down the agency’s offices nationwide.
Speaking on the planned strike on Tuesday, the NLC President, Joe Ajaero, said the organised labour had no reason to suspend the planned national protests and strike.
Ajaero spoke a few hours after another round of meeting of the Presidential Steering Committee on Palliatives held at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja, deadlocked.
“We have no reason to call off the planned protests. If we suspend or call it off, you will know. I can tell you that the mobilisation is very high,” Ajaero said in response to questions from journalists.
The Federal Government had in a last-ditch effort to avert the strike met with the NLC and TUC leaders on Monday but the parley also failed to reach any resolution.
The PUNCH reports that the Federal Government and the organised labour have been at loggerheads following the removal of fuel subsidy by President Bola Tinubu on May 29,2023.
In an effort to foster negotiations, the government set up a committee to look into the demands of the labour unions for a 300 per cent wage increase to enable workers to cope with the challenges imposed by the deteriorating economic situation that came with the removal of the controversial fuel subsidy, among other things.
Though the committee was given a total of eight weeks to come up with a suitable plan for workers and Nigerians at large, the labour leaders insisted that the committee has continued to show a lack of commitment towards their shared goal.
An earlier move by the labour leaders to embark on strike was stopped by a court order obtained by the government.
Speaking earlier after the meeting with FG officials, the NLC Secretary-General, Emmanuel Ugboaja, hinted that the congress would consider the government’s appeal for a peaceful resolution.
But he was countered by the Deputy Vice-President of the NLC, Titus Amba, who said there was no new development following the national broadcast made by the President, Bola Tinubu, on Monday evening.
Addressing journalists after the meeting of the Presidential Steering Committee on Palliatives, the TUC President, Festus Osifo, described the palliatives rolled out by the President as “grossly insufficient.”
Giving an update on the outcome of the meeting, he said, “About the protests, yes, they (FG) also appealed that we should shelve the protests. Our response was that we are going this evening to have a conversation around that. And you will hear from us at the end of that meeting.’’
IN THE EVENT that WAR breaks out between Niger Republic and Nigeria over the Successful military coup in the former, which Military do you think would win. Nigeria or Niger??
The current Gun Firepower Index shows a significantly weakened Nigeria military.
Niger Republic would find alliance in Chad, Libya and enjoy sympathy of established terrorist groups, jihadists and Northern Nigeria.
Should Niger Republic be used to test the Firepower Index of the Nigerian military?
Please let's analyze and proactively prepare..
Niger Military vs. Nigeria Military !!!! ... Who wins ?
they could be under the shadow of russia,"there was a country"
fx45: My people make una come put mouth for this matter. The people that are tearing down Davido's posters and billboards might likely declare a Fatwa on Asisat Oshoala.
By the way, is this not the same reason why Yoruba Muslims aren't allowed to sight the moon or lead prayers in any Mosque with Northern Muslims in it?
What type of Islam are Yoruba Muslims practicing in the South West? One picture speaks a thousand words.
ProducerXTN: Minister of finance in Niger Republic given 48hrs by the coup plotters to account for the stolen money of Niger people or face execution by firing squad. We're back to square one!
Penguin2: I saw this since yesterday but took it with a pinch of salt like I always do with all information from private sources. But after seeing the news on front page of Tinubu replacing 4 names in his original ministerial list, I’m beginning to believe this information might be closer to being true than false.
So, let’s test a hypothesis as what if Wike makes the list tomorrow.
For those who don't understand Tiv language, she agreed that the voice in the conversation is the groom's dad's voice but she said they are not cousins. She said they are related along the line but it's by their great-great grandparents not even the grandparents. She said all this happened during the trade-by-barter era when they were not even born and the woman they traded on their side is not even her great-grandmother. She admitted knowing so much about the Tiv culture and if they were cousins, she wouldn't have proceeded with the marriage.
since David killed Goliath, children no get respect again.see this small boy with elders meat!!
