I gave my ex ₦5m from the ₦6m my husband gave me, now he’s ignoring my calls

I hate idiots. I dislike crafty idiots.

Convert the amounts to dollars using the average exchange rates for those years.

Putindbutt:
Joblessness, efforts in futility. Do Deji, Sowore, Effiong, think they're are messing with Obi who easily chicken out at any challenge.
So far, these clowns have not provided a single proof of money laundering against either Wike or his Wife, none!. Sowore has no training in investigative journalism, he's only collecting free money from Ford Foundation for scamming them.
By now, I expect Sowore to have flooded the internet with undisputable account details through which Wike or his Wife used to wire these monies abroad to purchase those properties, would have provided us the names of the banks either in Nigeria or in the US where the money was routed. But brrrrh, this clown is only feeding those people who love swallowing up every junks thrown at them without thinking. They have been celebrating nonsense thinking Wike has fallen into their trap. What a joke you are.
I could remember, this same Sowore posted a picture of Kenyamo's penthouse in the UK and started making all kind of noise but atlas, what happened?, he was shut up.
He will come online with his fake Sahara desert to say, Wike was on a wheelchair, his hands were shaking, couldn't walk, blablabla, then the next minute, we saw Wike granting TV interviews and receiving guests in Abuja.
In another fake news, he said Wike was on an emergency admission for heart failure in the UK and then boom, that same week, Wike was in Abuja flagging off projects. Tinubu had gone to France for medical treatment, then we saw Mr President being hosted to dinner by Macron. So many fake news he cooks in his bedroom and then pass it off to Obidients who obviously celebrate any of such fake news until the day he attacks Obi and then, Obidents turn around fighting back, allegiing he has been paid by Tinubu to attack Obi.

Hi Wike. Is this your account on NL?

DeJoeee:
Normally I dont like joining issues with low class touts as that will be lowering the bar for me, but I have to reply to this vituperations for the sake of young minds that are in this forum. One of the highest war crimes ever committed in human history is the burning of the Alexandria Library. That singular act set the world civilization centuries back. Put in a proper perspective, we should be at the level of future civilization expected in 22nd or 23rd century. For you to under rate the importance of a national library tells so much of your intellectual level.

Indeed the world lost a lot of valuable knowledge due to this. This is where they also killed Archimedes.

Sannisege:
When Tinubu was in opposition, all he did was release just one statement and the grounds will shake. But see this one making noise everytime on every issue. Obi’s words no longer carry weight.

Are you suggesting that Tinubu only speaks once in a while? Guy was releasing statements regularly. Statements that he at times does the opposite of.

This one is a comedian not a pastor. He needs to be whipped as Jesus whipped those ones in the temple.

LordBiden:
Sowore must be high on cheap crack.

Are you saying a two terms governor of an oil rich state like rivers cannot afford a mansion in USA without stealing state funds.

I still like wike,at least he is a performer and not like other politicians who steals and still don't perform in office.

The wife also earns huge income as a judge.

No he cannot based on his earnings from the state. Very few of your politicians if they are reliant on salary and allowances from the government can afford houses in Florida.

Wike was jealous that Sowore didn't give him attention. Now he has it. If I were Sowore I wouldnt have said anything as that would pepper him more. He has now given Wike attention. This media clash is about to be a distraction.

How is Jonathan exercising his right to run a crisis? Are these the people Tinubu now surrounds himself with?

yardie:
Compilation of some insulting names trump has been called.

You didn't include the 'orange tub of lard'.

Is Wike jealous that Sowore didn't call him a criminal? Or that Sowore doesn't pay attention to him?

Americans call Trump worse than criminal. And people are waiting for Trump to no longer have immunity. The moment he leaves office and he must because this is his last term. He go hear am!!

If true this is a very good move. Now to be sure that the curriculum is the right one.

A people who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat the errors of history.

I miss 'The Game's supermarket at Palms. It was a good plug for original stuff.

This isn't in the past where one says something and people forget. People will do their own research and see if it is false or not.

Lagos needs the return of Fashola. Sanwo-Olu is the pothole governor. The roads are painful to see when one remembers what Fashola did with them.

For the record, the statement by Tacha is not sensible.

I am in support of marriage but does this pastor think her friend is in a bad place because she isn't married?

olaolaking:
One of the best my foot. So they should kit her differently or all those bench warmers should also be kit?

Amusan is yet to prove herself to us

Amusan has nothing to prove to you or anyone in Nigeria. She is a record holder and top athlete. It is your arrogance that is speaking. She should be kitted well to improve Nigeria's chance of getting a model.

No wonder we are going downhill. Something other nations are excelling in, we see it as a matter of power to use to dominate.

olaolaking:
In the other thread, she claims they were note well kitted like the Americans.

Can she promise us similar numbers of winning with the Americans?

Are you serious with this post? You have one of the top athletes and you are under kitting her and yet asking if she can compete. Over familiarity dey do una. If you now hear that another country is offering her 1m dollars per year to run for them, you will call her unpatriotic.

Half truth and different operating regime. For now I will still only buy from Dangote. NNPC has been taking advantage of us.

If a couple says this then they have been pretending all those years or they are lying!!!

Okro

Now one remembers Kperogi's article. This is government of propaganda by people who want to recreate Animal Farm here.

Solid post. The best way to know someone's true nature is to give them power. Power intoxicates and deceives especially if you don't retain someone to whisper truth as painful as it can be to you.

A man can be all of this and the marriage will still fall apart if the woman is weak, selfish or irresponsible or just plain useless.

This post is not approved.

Do not judge this man unless you have been in this position before.

If you believe this, you will believe anything.

If you are envious of this, then you need a major attitude and mental check.

Did they just say 'had the potential for lower the President's standing'?

Bwahahahhahahahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahahaha

DSS is employing comedians ooo

Before rejoicing let us wait and see what the overpaid peeps want to do. I only trust them to act in their self interests.

I won't be surprised if Tinubu has summoned DSS to explain why they went after Sowore in this manner. The sheer stupidity of granting this guy the audience he has craved locally and internationally on a platter of gold deserves lashing.

I don't even know where to start with this one. Thanks for drawing more Nigerians' attention to Sowore.

Background

Everybody wants government to maintain highways, but nobody wants government to make the money to maintain the highways.

Once upon a time, long ago, government tolled the highways in order to generate the funds that it would use to maintain them.

In this video you can see that the chief of staff, Supreme Headquarters (military vice president) Brigadier Shehu Musa Yar'Adua paid the toll when he opened the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway in 1978.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_LfloE6BWc?si=ybvpzjW7C49OZO4w



However, over the years, there were claims that the toll operators were corrupt and that they did not remit the funds to the government. Private companies were hired to run the toll plazas but the allegations of corruption continued.

Therefore, sometime around 2004, the Obasanjo Administration demolished the toll plazas. The government decided that it would impose a petrol tax and use that money to maintain the expressways, instead of relying on tolls.

(Some people believe that the demolition of the toll plazas led to the deterioration of highways like the Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway).

President Obasanjo included the tax in the appropriation bill (budget) and he wanted to start collecting it before the budget was passed by the National Assembly.

However, the tax was opposed by many people.

Governor Bola Tinubu of Lagos opposed it and threatened to sue the Federal Government and the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) agreed with him. The Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), led by Adams Oshiomhole, threatened to go on strike and both the Senate president and the speaker of the House of Representatives expressed opposition to the tax.

President Obasanjo decided to pause implementation of the tax, due to the opposition to it. The tax was included in the Federal Road Maintenance Agency (FERMA) Act of 2007, but the act states that the implementation of the tax will begin on a date to be determined by the Minister of Finance.

In other words, it is not a new tax and it will not commence on January 1st. The reason that some people believe that it's a new tax is because a new tax law (that harmonised all taxes) was recently enacted and this old tax was mentioned in the law.

So another item which BAT opposed and has now introduced. This should tell people that political opposition at times is based on the person across than any ideal.
