Everybody gas chop from the national cake even if you dey obodo oyinbo.

Not surprising though. In general, we tend to think only of our daily bread (in the literal sense) and not care about tomorrow. That is why it is easy to bribe people with bags of rice and money.

barcanista:
Alams pardon was not done through Presidential fiat but by the National Council of State(NCS). The NCS consists of all past Heads of State and Presidents, CJN, Speaker, Senate President and the 36 Governors. So far nobody came out to say they disagreed with his pardon. In fact, Yakubu Gowon came out to defend it. I am not holding brief for anyone but the responsibility should be shared by all of them and not President Jonathan alone.

As for Obanikoro alleged tape, I am yet to comment on it except on one occasion where I blamed Jonathan. However, he has gone to court arguing that the tape was doctored. Whether he's made a Minister or an SA is another issue as I believe there is the court to settle election matters. As for FFK, I recall when he was with APC, they said through elRufai that his trial was politically motivated. I want him to be brought to justice but I find it laughable the u-turn made by the same APC when he left them. Just the way they had backed Nyako rather than telling him to clear his name. Bro, APC is worse than PDP.

As for APC guys, lol....we know their antecedents and hypocrisy. Not forgeting their schemes. It is very easy to spot them. Haha.

MODIFIED

President Goodluck Jonathan has confirmed the granting of presidential pardon to a former Governor of Bayelsa State, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, and a few other ex-convicts.
PREMIUM TIMES had broken the strory of the pardon while the meeting was underway Tuesday morning.
We also reported details of the proceedings minutes after the meeting ended.
Presidential spokespersons had gone underground for most of yesterday in what appeared a ploy to dodge media enquiry on the controversial pardon of a man who stole his people blind while governor.
But Mr. Jonathan, speaking through his Senior Special Assistant on Media, Doyin Okupe, has now confirmed our report.
He said he has no apology for his action.
Mr. Okupe spoke on Channels TV breakfast show, Sunrise.
“That is an action that has been taken by the National Council of States and I have no apology for that.” Mr. Jonathan said. “We must begin to respect and honour our institutions. I don’t need to defend the action that has been taken.”
When reminded that the action had created the impression that the government was not serious about the war against corruption, Mr. Jonathan said, “It is not all decisions parents take that are palatable for their kids. But with time they will realize that their parents are right.”
He said pardoning Mr. Alamieyeseigha was in order as the former Bayelsa governor had suffered enough.
“A man was deposed. He was hounded, tried and jailed. What is wrong with giving pardon to a remorseful sinner?
“How come granting pardon to him has become an aberration? Is it because he is from Bayelsa? Is it from he is from South-South? Is it because he is connected to Mr. President?”

The presidency in fact came out to support the decision of the council of states

hush15:


So, the big question is why would a Lagos state high court free someone who is guilty of corruption. I smell APC hand in this. They have agreed to a compromise with babalakin.
Yet, they say Jona promotes corruption.
What a shame

People, shine ur eyes and vote wisely.
For me, it's GEJ till 2019

Funkymallam:



He is just deputizing for Amaechi, who is on sabattical.
Is that wrong?



Hypocrites

what are you saying?

They should also pass a bill on political and structural terrorism.

Oh and they shouldn't forget economic terrorism. Certain government officials/groups have been destroying our economy and are still strategizing on how to destroy it further. The punishment for that too should be death sentence (by firing squad)

This is very silly. How can a whole governor leave his state and responsibilities, waste tax payers money and start stalking nigerian citizens. Absolutely ridiculous. I don't even care what message he has to pass across, this is nonsense

Omo17 this was the first picture posted. The original post has been edited and the pic removed. But now I doubt the authenticity of the remaining pictures.

PhockPhockMan:
Which one.

Don't worry, dem don remove am. They realized their mess up. I'll find the pic online and try and upload it.

Did anyone notice the 2011 picture?

Hmm the way they are"killing" "boko haram"/"terrorists" in the last week or so....

500 last week, 600 yesterday, 615 today, 200 tomorrow, 1000 next week

I laugh when I hear these pdp rats say Barcanista has seen the so called light that's why he decamped.

I and a very few nairalanders who are very close to him knows his reason for leaving the progressives.

Barcanista has only one vote and i don't think his new found love for Jonathan will attract anyone to join him.

where did he go

Smh. A lot of judgmental people. He can show whatever picture of his mom. That's the way he remembers her. That's the way HE CHOOSES to.

Aida13:


Thank goodness you said 'playtime'. You obviously escaped from your nursery and came to spout rubbish here. Please hurry back to your crib. Next time, I'll make you go to the naughty step if you get out of line again


Oh by the way---- does him being an American stop him in any way from also being a Nigerian? Because according to you, he can't be both. Smfhhhh

If only you could admit you were wrong, this can end amicably. But people like you would never do that. You're simply myopic and I can only do my best to straighten out your dumb notions.

Please feel free to NOT reply. I won't hold it against you.

As for your fake PEACE pls pocket it jare. Person like you no like peace but you will be saying it 100 times as if that makes it alright. Yeye

Smh

Aida13:


You insulted me first. Why say 'which name will he use, abi na your papa name'?? That was disrespectful. And it's self-hate because you just can't fathom why anyone would consider him Nigerian, which makes you come across as someone who deep down hates to associate with her true roots.

The guy is Nigerian. Not only because we CHOOSE to view him as such, but because he has Nigerian blood on his FATHER'S side. End of. Nigerian blood flows through his veins. Just like your father's blood flows through your veins and you claim your father's surname as a result. Even if you never stepped on Nigerian soil or even know the country exists, you can't run from the fact that if not for the PLACE you happened to be born in, you would be considered a Nigerian because of your father. If it was his mother who was a Nigerian it might be a little different.

Your manner of approach from the beginning left a lot to be desired. It felt like you were spoiling for a fight. So I gave you one. Now you want to run and hide. They call people like you cyber bullies. But you start to quake when the other person bites back.

I stopped reading after the first paragraph. Jokes aside, I'm done with this argument.

To you, he is Nigerian. Great! I'm happy for you.

To me, to the American government, to the Nigerian governemnt, he is American.

Btw, I did not insult you, I did not insult your father,and I did not insult your name. Learn motto take things too personal

Na me even get time for all dis story sef. My playtime is over. Peace.

Aida13:



I'm done. But a word for you, pick your arguments wisely. As for the tiny font, grow up okay? Even Wiki knows Kevin is an American. But some of us down here choose to ALSO know him as a Nigerian. Maybe your self-hate won't let you deal with that. Just don't drag others down with you.

Okay. Now I'm done


drops mike

Na me you dey "give word"?

Hold up! I should grow up? Yea... Says the person who can't argue without throwing personal insults. :-x e be like say u don calm down now though. We tenk God.


Anyway.... I don't know why you would claim him as Nigerian when he hasn't told you that he is. Anyway enough of this nonsense. Biko I dey go work.

Btw, how am I self-hating? How does me saying he is not nigerian equate to self hate? Na wa o.

Aida13:


You're the one who jumped on my comment like I committed a crime. You wanted to put me in my place abi? Dumbo. You deserve all the insult for coming at me like that. How can you prove his is NOT Nigerian? Oh, you can't. F O O L

Like I don talk, feel free Na. I hol u?

Btw, u don finish 4 d insult? Biko feel free o.

[size=4pt]Kevin Olusola is American. [/size]

Aida13:


You are a certified G O A T.

EOD. Oh do you mean O D E.

Dumbos like you make internet access like it should be rationed to a select few. Just go shoot your brain matter out, it's pointless having any.

Shoo! Who u be? LOL! All dis insult for me alone? Feel free to add more o if e never do u.

Come Na dis matter or anoda one? D guy Na your brother or relative?

Okay o. Madam ITK, oya u don win. Carry cup.

Aida13:


You can face palm yourself to infinity. YOU totally missed your own freaking point. I never said he WASN'T an American. I only said he is straight up Nigerian and you wanted to have a seizure. Come to think of it, he's barely even first generation American, since his father just came into the US just before Kevin was born. So Kevin barely got that badge of being known as "American".

I hate it when people come here acting like we're 'claiming' him when he doesn't even know the color of the Nigerian flag etc. That is disrespectful to Kevin. For all you know, he proudly reps his Nigerian roots (since basically his father was born HERE and even finished MEDICAL SCHOOL in Nigeria. Show me where Kevin has ever denied his Nigerian roots, then I'll believe you.

I still stand on the point that when I'm describing Kevin I'm going to keep saying he's NIGERIAN because he definitely IS. Just as Tinie Tempah is Nigerian. And many others out there who weren't born in Nigeria but are known as "Nigerian' by virtue of their roots/origins/heritage. It's part of who Kevin is and nothing you say, and no matter the American passport he owns, can take away that pedigree. So piss off, you're f u c k i n g irritating and high handed with ur b u l l s h i t.

And by the way, Kim K is proudly Armenian. Because her FATHER was originally from Armenia. It's a widely known fact that the Kardiashians rep their Armenian roots even though the are born and bred Americans. Don't come on here thinking you're smarter than anyone else. You definitely need a facepalm through the face for that.

Na so your blood dey hot on top dis matter? Hahahaha

He is not straight up Nigerian. He is American. EOD. PEACE.

Tell me Obama is straight up Kenyan

Aida13:


You're the joker here, happy to argue for the sake of it. He was born of a Nigerian father. What part of that don't you understand?? Sheesh

His surname, parentage says it all but like some unenlightened ones out there, you'd rather blind and deafen yourself. He was born of a Nigerian father. I don't even have to know where his mother was from. This makes him of NIGERIAN ORIGIN whether he's American by situation and birth. In conclusion: Of Nigerian Origin=============Nigerian. F U C K !!!!

Facepalm! Forget it, this is pointless.

I am not saying that he is not of Nigerian descent. That he is of nigerian descent doesn't mean he is Nigerian. It's like trying to categorize each Americans by stating their European or Hispanic, African or Asian ancestry. Dude is American. He is the real definition of African-American.
He is American. Deal with it.

Aida13:


Meaning he has a Nigerian father. Yes he was born and raised there but unlike some people he maintained his full Naija name ie Kevin Olusola, never calling himself by some fake nickname to fit in. People coming on here acting like we can't claim he's a Nigerian because he was never born here is bull. Kim Kardashian is known to be Armenian even though she was born in America. Same difference.

I'll take it you're joking. He had a nigerian father and that makes him a Nigerian? Is he a citizen of Nigeria? Was he born in Nigeria? Does he have a Nigerian passport? Has he ever lived in Nigeria? (Even if he has lived there, it's not enough to say he is Nigerian).
He used his full name "Kevin Olusola". Which name he suppose use? Your papa name?
Kim K is known to be Armenian? By who?

Aida13:
You guys should read him up on his Wiki page before you start making ish comments---this guy is straight-up Naija. I love their group Pentatonix, have their Christmas album and I've been repping Kevin, check my posts (What music are you listening thread etc) I'm happy for him the guy has MAAAD skills. As of December 2014 he was the only member of his group to actually have a Wikipedia page. Yep, as of that time I checked.

How is he straight up naija?

We too dey like claim o. African-american is more like it.

See his profile here: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Olusola

The guy was born in California. He owes who he is to the education and opportunities he got abroad. There is no mention of Nigeria or Nigerians in his profile.

You're so full of shiit smh.
