See real yeruba talking not these kids we have here on nairaland

ArmedRobber:
Let iya afeez and iya monsura find attachment in the street and leave highway ,
They re not used to highway selling until igbo boys influenced them.
They will surely find their way out,this is child's play compared to what fashola did to iyalojas.
They still survive by attaching to those that have shops arround.
Highway hawking should be scrapped.

ZeroTolerance:
Imagine no light in Bida for 2 weeks despite all the dams in Niger state. Will Niger delta avengers be blamed for this too?

God punish Buhari and Fashola

vecman22:
thunder fire GEJ and his supporters..

AntiWailer:
See forget Politics .

FALANA is very correct. Without just ranting, let me explain with examples.

One of his point is that the immunity does not cover electoral crimes.

Check meaning of Absolute first before you jump on the argument.

Synonyms of ABSOLUTE It is not a law term it means
synonyms: complete, total, utter, out-and-out, outright, entire, perfect, pure, decided;

Try not to see everything in the prism of PDP so that whatever analogy you present is assimilated by readers without sensing bias. Someone might similarly say that Falana is an APC lawyer, therefore his submission tilts in favour of APC. This is my humble "LOKOMAPI".


The above makes the STATEMENT a STATEMENT of FACT.

1. Buhari was in court for his certificate issue cos it affects his election.

2. Ikpeazu was in court because of tax papers that affect his election

3. Gani Fawehinmi took Tinubu to court independently over Toronto Certificate forgery.

4. Sitting governors are tackled from Tribunal to supreme Court despite immunity.

1, 2 and 3 are not electoral petitions. They are suits against people who enjoy immunity but the suit was entertained because it can be categorised as an electoral crime.

So we dnt need a PHD in Law before you know WHAT falana is saying is simply the truth.

"No absolute immunity in our Law. If there is, Ikpeazu wont be running helter skelter, looking for court injunction"

Mike is a PDP lawyer and infact he is currently defending Fayose.

So I dnt expect him to take another position.


It is only victims of headlines that will scream.

Nigerians, pls don't crucify me! We need to set our priority right. Presently, Nigeria is battling with economic crisis and I don't think most of the recommendations in the 2014 confab report are suitable for now. We need to subdue the economic challenges first.

* Imagine, 27 states out of 36 could not pay workers wages and we are proposing 54.

It means 89,000 federal civil servants will be increased to about 150,000 all at the expense of our dwindling economy.

2014 confab report is superb but not implement able at this moment. The implementation will create chaos, compound Nigeria economic challenges.

What Nigerians need now is not more states or state. Police. We need

* atleast 18hrs electricity supply
* A bag of rice for N5000
* A litre of fuel for N50
* Housing Mortgage of standard 3bedroom flat for N2M to be paid for 20yrs (fraction of Minimum wage)
* Minimum wage N45,000
* Free health care service
* Free Tertiary Education

We need to reason well.

It is a common knowledge that Murtala is not fit to be a soldier let alone a Commander in the Army going by his antecedents during the Civil War....Obasanjo the cunning General was Murtala's boy hence he named an International Airport and a currency N20 as a way to honour his friend and Oga out of fear to pacify the ruling North. That is Nigeria for you.

Ovamboland:
Kids always reason as kids, similar situation in 1983 the government had declared austerity measures just as Iweala did in 2014. Oil prices just crashed from over $40 to less than $10 and imaru Dikko had completed his rice heist of over $1bn amongst others just like Dasuki in 2014. Wheat for bread was largely imported then as it is today. With dwindling export income and insistence by many that today's government forgives and forget looted funds is it not foolishness to turn around and demand the economy must remain the same after such looting

isbish:
May God continue to guide you PMB. We are solidly behind you. God know why he keeps bringing u to us especially just after the nation is always at the brink of economic collapse. God never makes mistakes, He brought you to us cos HE knows you are what we need to move on as a nation and a people under the claws of Bad leaders of the last administration. By making Boko Haram alone less stronger and so incapacitated to launch attacks therby making people feel more safe from Boko Haram is a great one. What's life without security and to live in fear all the time?

As a people, we are safer today under you from BH, it will take people to ggo to North East to see how you are appreciated for bringing peace to them. Even we in Abuja are safer and as such, ride on sir. When peace is achieved and terror cleared, development albeit gradual but steady shall come. God bless PMB. I had rather buy rice for 14k and fuel for 145 and feel secure than to live in fear of being bombed by some terrorist while at the motor park like so many that lost their lives in the last administration. I feel more secured today under PMB from BH, that alone gives me peace and I know its time, things will be good, I see it, I feel it for God gave us PMB and God never makes a mistake. GOD bless u PMB...just ride on sir, we are solidly behind you.

tomakint:
I mean when he pen down that move at a time Lagos was still underpopulated and needing more attention that befits a City at that time. It was actually a move that cost the young country then tons and tons of funds, which were massively wasted trust me Katz that was the Genesis of Nigeria's debt problem. that guy (Murtala) would have made a mincemeat of this great country if he had stayed a little bit longer

double0seven:
do you even stop to read through what you post?

what do you mean the original unforged 2015 rules. The 2015 Senate rules should be same with one used in the 7th Senate. After the 8th Senate resumes, they can now sit down and decide to make changes through laid down procedures.

when a small group of people does it secretly without the knowledge of others, that's definitely fraudulent and the altered document is definitely a forgery and it constitutes a criminal act.

HungerBAD:
Laughing.

16 Years of Rot and decay left by the clueless one caused it. But, the good times is around and i am sure the problem of epileptic power supply will soon be a thing of the past.

Nigeria getting it right now.

Just curious, was the Court sitting in the night?if not for the Pirates Of The Caribbean Wigs on their heads. I would have argued that it was some undergraduates reading for an exam.

Oklander:
Lol, that year NOI was doing one fake polls like that for Jona, claiming he was performing and Nigerians were fully behind him, it became clear when Nigerians "capooted" Jona back to Otuoke.


As for this here, all I can say is, things would have been far far worse had the last admin continued till now considering how they were mercilessly looting without plans for the hard times when we had plenty, them for don sell Naija to Ghana by now. So I would give it to Buhari but I do not believe in any poll.

goldust777:
Hopefully they will tighten security in ikorodu because the attacks by deranged ijaw militants is a big blow to security in lagos state

jejemanito:
I Stopped Reading When I Saw Kwara State Chapter...

Aspireahead:
Unfortunately. this is the generation I fall into. The country will not move even an inch if we the holoi poloi's continue to fight ourselves while the politicians leave large.... but what i read online this days make me shrug about what future Nigeria holds. Everything manages to be politicise and in the long run tribalise. I part we get it right

Aspireahead:
I still maintain that the problem with Nigeria is not necessarily the political class, but the herd of suffering followers who defend their opulent lifestyles and sanguinary proclivities.

We Nigerians tend to even forget quickly, maybe because things are tough for us. we have all moved on from the CBN employment scam, FIRS employment scam and believe me...we would have forgotten about this one by next week.
Finally, let Buratai resign and a full fledged investigation be conducted...he is in no way bigger than the other former service chiefs who are standing trial.
I still believe he can afford the house, but I don't believe anyone who served in the last administration as director of procurement in a corruption ridden institution like the Nigerian Army is clean.

As for the army, allow Butatai and his family to respond...you are in no way privy to all of his finances

udeagbalaC:
he was a former DG of nta,he exploited the agency to a sorry state
today nta is still the worse media agency in Nigeria

carboblanko:
Government is a continuum. Why should any reasonable government initiate new projects when there are thousands of uncompleted ones. It doesn't matter who initiated what. The most important thing is to ensure that all projects with meaningful impact on the generality of the people are completed. We shouldn't play politics with everything. It will not more us forward.

sarrki:
Abeg enough of this . Note that obasanjo started to yar dua to Gej then buhari so ?

bugzy84:
The biggest mistakes GEJ made in changing his military top brass were replacing Admiral Ibrahim as CDS with ACM Badeh and appointing Lt Gen Minimah as COAS and decimating the Courses senior to Minimah.

However the Admiral forgets his allegiance to Nigeria is superior to his allegiance to his Commander in Chief.

DEAFandDUMB:
Wow!... This is getting interesting... What could be the reasons why many successive administrations has refuse to embrace true federalism since from all indication its the fastest and a sure route to making Nigeria great again... Are they afraid that the centre might fall and Abuja and Lagos be deserted?

acorntree:
if one look critically at the content of this speech one should be able to see that, the same problems affecting Nigerian economy in 80s is still plaguing the giant of Africa in 20th century. why is everything getting worse from military to civilian government,from civilian to civilian?
Nigeria economy is crumbling daily, no hope for the citizen. I think this is beyond APC or PDP.

Sweetlemon:
We do no have enough information as to whether this was a religious fight or not so let's not jump to conclude yet.
And for those shouting break up whenever this happens, know that it doesn't solve any of our internal issues which are worse.
As an ND girl I can authoritatively tell you that we are NOT united. Is it the Ishekiris and the Ijaws that will live peacefully together Let's look at my state, there's a serious supremacy battle between the Ibibios, annangs and the Oron people. The Efiks being the most powerful people in Cross River does not go down well with the other over 20 ethnic groups there. So how will an Akwa/Cross country look like? undecided

As for middlebelt, do we need to remind ourselves of the numerous community fights going on there?
What about the Christians and other minority tribes in the core North? How will they cope with the overbearing majority of the Hausa/Fulani Muslim community?

The SW may thrive for a little while because of their system of checks and balances and the fact that they have leaders that they collectively recognize and respect. However, Yoruba communities also fight a lot, it will just be a matter of time before they start back st

kachola:
I said it corruption is fighting back. The problem of this country is pdp. I have never seen a set of pple dats are so corrupt as pdp. cant jus imagin this,
