CLUB ANNOUNCEMENT

We're delighted to announce Mikel Arteta is joining the club as our head coach on Sunday.


Mikel, a former club captain, played for us for five seasons from 2011 to 2016 and has signed a three-and-a-half year contract.

Mikel said: “This is a huge honour. Arsenal is one of the biggest clubs in the world. We need to be competing for the top trophies in the game and that’s been made very clear to me in my discussions with Stan and Josh Kroenke, and the senior people from the club.

“We all know there is a lot of work to be done to achieve that but I am confident we’ll do it. I’m realistic enough to know it won’t happen overnight but the current squad has plenty of talent and there is a great pipeline of young players coming through from the academy.”

Mikel’s coaching team will be announced as soon as possible.

What is special in Arteta? Will Arterta make Arsenal win EPL and Champion League in five years time? Can he even control the players? Once again the Arsenal management got it wrong in their choice of coach.What they need do is to look for a better experienced coach, buy experienced strikers, mildfelders ,and defenders.The likes of Pepe and Saka and other secondary school boys in Arsenal will take the club to wilderness not the Promised Land

Danjuma was among those who carried out the July 1996 coup leading to the death of many innocent Nigerians because of the northern interest.. There is nothing he wants to tell us about Nigeria apart from deception.All in the ruling class are the same.

Good evening Nairalanders.

I am dying in silence

I discovered that I had pile during my secondary School days (2014). I didn't even know this has been on me for long, until I went to defecate with a friend of mine in the bush. Immediately he saw that red flesh coming out on my anus. He shouted "What is this!!". That was when I knew I had PILE.

I told my mum about this. She said she noticed something like that from the day I was given birth to. She said, she didn't keep quiet, and she asked the nurses what was in my anus. The nurses replied that, "it is normal" That it will still leave there. Now, I am in my twenties. This thing is now paining me seriously. In fact , I can't defecate easily.

Please, nurses and doctors in the house, come to my aid.

Note: I noticed that, I ejaculate within 3 to 4 mins during sex. I don't know maybe it's because of the pile?

Also, I have used and inserted some drugs (Anosoid or so, I can't really remember it spelling) recommended by a general hospital doctor yet, this thing is still stubborn. I have also visited Alagbo (herbal). In fact, The money wasted can't just be mentioned.

This night, I discovered the that its now out itself. Since all these while, it has been in, I only feel or see it while defecating.

I can't just imagine what people have been saying. like, "I wont be able to impregnate a lady" and all sorts of things like that.

Pls, help your boy.

Help for wider view .

I will appreciate all comments, remedy, solution, cure etc just to get this out of my anus.

. If you have a pile with some growth in your anus it is a chronic one.It is this growth that has a bruise when defecating making you have fresh red blood in your stool. You can use traditional medicine that will shrink the growth in your anus.A lot are advisable even in Osun state.The growth may be removed surgically too but I don't think it is necessary considering a lot of treatment available on it traditionally. Additionally pile won't disturb you to have children and if you ejaculate within four minutes there is no problem... Usually the first ejaculation in sex is earlier than the second one.So rest your mind please.and treat your piles.

Shocking Revelations About Ondo Church Where Children Are Buried Alive
opera.com Dec 19, 2019 4:51 AM
Going by the latest development at the popular church in Akure, Sotitobire Prayer Centre and more revelations about its general overseer, Prophet Babatunde Alfa, there seems to be more troubles for several worshipers who seek for miracle churches in the society.

Sotitobire Prayer Centre located in Oshinle Quarters in Akure and it's GO have been consistently hitting the news headline in the last few days not for positive development but rather, a debilitating blasphemy to the name of God and sanctity of His sanctuary.

The church which was once a final bus stop for miracle seekers in Ondo State and beyond, suddenly came to national focus, following the disappearance of a child belonging to one of its members, Mr and Mrs Kolawole.

The child, Gold Kolawole reportedly got missing on Sunday November 24 after he was dropped off at the children section of the Church by his mother.



Following several attempt to locate the children which proved futile, the general overseer, Prophet Babatunde Alfa was arrested by the DSS and taken to the police headquarters in Abuja for interrogations.

On Wednesday December 19, hell was practically set loose in Akure after the pastor's confession on how he sacrificed the toddler was made public. Angry mob descended on the church and the entire properties within the premises and razed it to ashes.



The development however appeared to have dug out more devastating revelations about the miracle church and its pastors which many worshipers were not privy to, before now.

It was revealed that before DSS officials could squeeze out the confession from the prophet, they had to hire the service of powerful herbalist from outside Nigeria who disclosed that prophet Babatunde would never say the truth except his hair is thoroughly shaved.

According to him, the prophet source of power is buried in his bushy hair. And surprisingly, as soon as the DSS followed the instruction, the prophet who initially fainted and was rushed to the hospital, allegedly began to reel out his atrocities.

He confirmed that Kolawole Gold was the seventh children in the church that would be buried alive on the altar.

Asking how he has been doing it without knowledge of the member, prophet Alfa stated that each time he needed to do it, he simply made a commandment and a child will disappear into the unseen grave on the altar.



It was revealed that the prophet was highly influential and has been a regular spiritual consultant to some class of powerful politicians in Ondo State.

This was said to be the reason his arrest could not be effected in the state and while he was taken to Abuja, it was alleged that there was a pressure on the DSS to release the prophet.

On Wednesday, when the church was attacked, the Ondo State commissioner of Police was said to have quickly mobilized his men to the scene to prevent the church from being burnt down which consequently led to the death of two residents and a police officer.

For now, the public are watching with rapt attention if prophet Babatunde Alfa would finger those powerful politicians behind his move at the church.

Nigerians are also waiting to see the dimension his case will take in the days ahead.

. See the difference between the police and the DSS.... Many miracle centers are Satanic places!

I remember the month after we found out about the genotype, she told me she told her parents that she's gon get married to me no matter what, they practically begged her not to, telling her different stories of SS children they know

We haven't told anybody about the pregnancy yet . We are scared every single one of them will blame us and think we did it intentionally just to get married.

I love her and I'm sure she loves me too buh this pregnancy, the tot of it alone being SS is scaring the shit out of us.

Exclusive: Court Disqualifies Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah, Orders INEC To Issue Certificate Of Return To Obinna Uzoh (Photos)

Justice Bello Kawu of the Federal High Court Sitting in Abuja has ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to issue the certificate of return to Barrister Dr. Obinna Uzoh, as the Senator-Elect for Anambra South Senatorial District.

Justice Bello Kawu made this order in his judgement on the suit filed by Obinna Uzoh, which claimed that the Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah, presented a forged National Examination Council (NECO) secondary school certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), which enabled him to contest the Anambra South Senatorial Election.

Dr. Obinna Uzoh also in his suit also challenged that the Young Progressive Party (YPP) having not conducted the primary elections for its party for the Anambra South Senatorial election, should be disqualified.

He also declared that the 4th defendant, Dr. Obinna Uzoh, is the actual winner of the February general election having become the second position in the general election, and having the 1st and 2nd defendants disqualified for non-compliance with the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (As amended) and the Electoral Act, 2010 (As amended)

Justice Bello Kawu, therefore, ordered the 3rd defendant, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to issue a Certificate of Return to the 4th defendant, Dr. Obinna Uzoh, within 48 hours, as the duly elected Senator for Anambra South Senatorial District, being the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and having scored the highest number of valid votes cast.

He also ordered the Senate President and the Clerk to the National Assembly to swear in Dr. Obinna Uzoh as the Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria representing Anambra South Senatorial District within 48 hours.

. IBB Danjuma Abacha Murtala Mohammed Buhari and many others were among those that piloted the July 1966 coup leading to the death of many innocent Igbo soldiers..It was a coup organised by the northern soldiers to secede from Nigeria because of January 1966 coup which the North believed was planned by the Igbos soldiers against the northerners. All those that took part i n the coup were rewarded with leadership role in Nigeria...Aba Kiyari of the presidency today was a military governor after the coup for eight years .....Since that time the North has taken over the military and security system of Nigeria.We are all victims of time .This is Babangida for you in his old age.

The examination result of a schoolgirl in SS1 has hit the internet and everyone is talking about it for the wrong reasons.

The schoolgirl result for the term shows how woefully she did in school, finishing with a complete fail in all her subjects and taking the 39th position in a class of 39.

Not only did she terribly in her test and exams, her teacher and school principal comment made it even worse. Her teacher Joshua E. wrote;

I stumbled on this write up this afternoon and what the writer said then was exactly what occurred at that time..After reading this piece I wonder why Nigeria has been ruled by a set of people who were first in the military and later became civilians? Additionally I want the National Assembly to enact a law that as from 2023 the following people should not not take part in the Nigerian politics : 1. All ex military state administrators. 2. All ex members of the Supreme military council or Armed forces Ruling Council 3 All ex military. Vice presidents. 4 All ex military heads of states 5 All ex military ministers This is the only way Nigeria can be free from the effects of Jan and July 1966 coups and the civil war ...

Oba Adesoji Aderemi was the Ooni the Oni of Ife from 1930 to 1980. He was also a political figure who also served as the governor of the Western Region of Nigeria between 1960 and 1962.

He was particularly noted for being a proponent of education for his subjects. For instance, he championed the promotion of education during his reign as Ooni. It was this sentiment that laid the foundation of Oduduwa College in January 1932.

However, one of his greatest legacy in respect of education during his reign was the foundation of the University of Ife (now Obafemi Awolowo Unity). He championed the cause for the University to be located in Ile-Ife. He later went on to donate the land upon which the school is situated.

Oba Aderemi was a very wealthy and powerful monarch. He was also famous for owning some expensive automobiles. One of his automobile of note is a Rolls-Royce Phantom V.

As part of the 2019 Convocation exhibition, and as a tribute to the late Ooni, the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) has put up on display Oba Adesoji Aderemi’s Rolls Royce Phantom V. The car bears the number plate WF1. The convocation events hold from 11th to Saturday, 14th December 2019.

See below, photos of the Oba Adesoji Aderemi’s Rolls Royce Cadillac on display at the convocation ground.

larryplaytv:
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Director General, Voice of Nigeria (VON), Osita Okechukwu, has called on the All Progressives Congress, APC, and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP to adopt Igbo Presidency for 2023.

Okechukwu, who spoke with journalists in Enugu on Sunday, said if APC and PDP produced Igbo presidential candidates in 2023, it would solve the “prevalent gun-box democracy” and return “ballot box democracy” to Nigeria.

Okechukwu made the appeal while reacting to issues on the country’s democracy and the 2023 presidential election.
He appealed to the two dominant political parties to adopt the Falae/Obasanjo model by fielding an Igbo presidential candidate.

According to him, adoption of Igbo Presidency is the only way to have a peaceful 2023 presidential election and save Nigeria’s ‘threatened’ democracy.

He added that rotation of president among different regions is the ligament holding the country’s fledgling democracy.

Okechukwu said, “I have tremendous respect for His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, our national leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, especially Tinubu, who more than anybody contributed the critical supplement to President Buhari’s 12 million vote-bank in 2015 which led us to victory.
“I also salute other prominent Nigerians who are angling to be president in 2023. However, Nigeria, our fatherland is bigger than any of us and her unity is of paramount importance.

“The Falae/Obasanjo model was founded in 1999, on equity, natural justice, and good conscience, with the sole objective of a harmonious and peaceful country

“We may recall that in 1999, two Yorubas were fielded by national consensus under PDP and AD/APP alliance. That was the genesis of rotation of president between North and South.

The destination was peace, unity, equity and good conscience. We need that now more than ever, especially now that Mr President had denounced those fifth columnists who bandied 3rd Term.
Igbo presidency is the recipe to create sense of belonging and save Nigeria’s threatened democracy.”

Would the man you did not vote for hand over power to you?Do you need presidency now?For the South East to rule in 2023 it must pally with the South West .Only the South west can route South East for the North to accept it for presidency.This is only if their poor political calculation and regional division will make them reach the promised land in 2023 presidency.

Larryfest:
Even if it was staged managed as you people claim where is Sowore now and why was he rearrested after the court granted him bail? Mompha was granted bail yesterday and we haven't heard of him being rearrested again so why was Sowore rearrested

. My answer to your question is this: After his bail the DSS claimed it had a classified report that he was holding a secret meeting against his bail condition. The agency wanted to ask him questions on it.That made Falana personally drove him yo the DSS office before he was detained again.

This Sowore Vs DSS Wahala: The Lies Of Sowore And Falana
opera.com
Watching the unexpected issue that happened in the courtroom during the release of Omoyele Sowore is an alarming abuse of the courtroom but as well it can also be a movie drama planned or directed by a movie director known for several false stories telling Omoyele Sowore himself.
When Sowore's re-arrest video trended, it was expected that DSS reacts. They didn't. But now they, Sowore and Falana have reacted.
I WEEP FOR ALL OF US.
DSS claims their operatives were not inside the Courtroom. Falana claims DSS was in the Courtroom, that some were in Lawyers gowns and wigs. Unbelievable. Sowore claims DSS wanted to kill him while in their custody but failed. Now, DSS, in the public of Igwe Mmadu, came with guns to kill him right inside the Courtroom. Do you believe Falana and Sowore?
I doubted DSS until I watched that video again. The only man who was pinning Sowore down was the tall man in the suit. I thought he was a DSS operative. But he alone cannot effect an arrest. And clinging to Sowore who lied on top of him doesn't seem an effective way of arresting a man. I thought he was clinging to Sowore to prevent him from escaping. Now, I know he was clinging to prevent his arrest.
When I watched this video again, as Sowore was giving his illegal press briefing, this young man in the black suit was standing at his back, hailing him. Some others were surrounding Sowore. A wise voice was cautioning Sowore not to grant the interview. Sowore shunned that wise voice.
If Sowore was not killed while in DSS custody, why will DSS attempt to kill him while in public? Why will DSS operatives wear Lawyers gowns and wigs as Falana claimed? These are tissues of naked lies. All these dramatic personae should be arrested. They are not above the law as DSS is not above the law. They are a national disgrace.
Today, I and millions of other Nigerians have a clearer picture following the press release by the DSS. It has become clear that they didn't invade the courtroom to arrest Sowore. Falana, at least, admitted this and owned up that he was informed by the service of their intention to arrest his client after the court session and outside the court of course.
So, our hasty righteous indignation must have been misplaced! Still, it is excusable because we were all fooled by that video.
I, however, kept asking myself why there were no attempts by other DSS operatives to rescue their man who was trapped and swooped on by the supporters of Sowore as depicted in that video. To me, something didn't add up. The team of DSS could not have been outside, while one of their own was being pummeled in the courtroom.
Today, the jigsaws are falling properly into place!
First, Sowore resisted arrest and was aided in the act by his supporters.
Secondly, his case had ended; again, Sahara Reporters admitted this when they said in their earlier headline: "DSS Trying To Rearrest Sowore After Court Had Adjourned His Case". So, it was obvious that it was Sowore who rushed back into the courtroom and disrupted another ongoing court session.
Thirdly, he hoped to blackmail the security operatives, and whip up sentiment. And he succeeded. But like Lauretta Onochie said, when those who sided him based on the wool he pooled over their eyes eventually know the truth, they will abandon him. And this is true. Some have already realised he only play-acted and have washed their hands off him.
And for those who think that Sowore is insignificant and poses no national threat, I disagree completely with them. He might not be such threat now again, but if the DSS hadn't been proactive and botched the "revolution now" when they did, by arresting him, we can't tell how much the movement could go out of control.
Hasn't he been punished enough?
I would think that Sowore has been punished enough and should be allowed to go.
But...
Has he behaved like someone who has learnt anything yet, and is a bit remorseful?
We trivialize Sowore's case because we are probably looking at the man, Sowore, and not at those that might have been behind his move, those that might have committed funds to the cause, their potency, and what their actual intentions were and how they had planned to have it successfully executed.
Sowore went to the UK, had a meeting among others with Nnamdi Kanu, who, whether you like it or not, is enemy of the state. This meeting was for a purpose, and it was strategic; to recruit thousands of angry IPOB boys into this cause. Sowore posed with Kanu and shared the pictures. It was an endorsement by Kanu, and a message to his boys to join.
This was at a time the Shiites were marching and were being shot and killed, still they were not deterred. They were a willing tool for Sowore, and the clown knew it.
Add these to the bitter losers of the election, the embittered and disappointed members of the society who had thought that PMB was already history, and who didn't want to imagine the prospect of another 4 years with him on the saddle.
Sowore knew what was brewing!
Sowore had planned a movement that would get rowdy, uncontrollable, violent, and invariably lead to the security shooting the "revolutionary marchers", and with that, the "revolution now" would snowball into a proper revolution! It is happening all around us! Algerian president had resigned in April, just 2 months before Sowore's call. His resignation followed weeks of bloody mass protest termed Hirak or "Revolution of Smile" Sowore and his backers knew and wanted to replicate the same thing in Nigeria.
Sowore and his backers knew about Venezuela and wanted to replicate the same experience here by ensuring that things spiral out of hand, to get foreign governments to withdraw support for a president that defeated him in an election.
Note that this year alone, apart from the Algerian president, the Bolivian president, Evo Morales, has also resigned after weeks of mass protests; the same fate has befallen Iraqi prime minister, Adel Abdul Mahdi.
Do we have to talk about the Arab Spring of the 2010 and 2011 that swept away leaders of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and co!
All these revolutions didn't take people with two heads to succeed. It took ordinary people who were not even as powerful as Sowore to achieve them. So, we fool ourselves when we think that Sowore is merely an insignificant noisemaker. No! All it takes to achieve a revolution is an unruly crowd, who could be mistakenly shot at, and would bay for blood and say "Kill us all if you can".
Sowore knew this and banked on it.
Do I feel for him?
No!
You don't lose elections, and then choose to set the nation on fire or attempt to depose the same man who defeated you by chanting "Revolution Now"!
Maybe I would have felt for him if he had shown that he has learnt his lessons after spending over 120 days with the DSS.
Maybe, I would have felt for him if his misguided supporters had come to realise that they misled this young man, and admitted that their attempt was ill-contrived and wrong.
We trivialize Sowore's case because we see him wrongly as an activist and not as a bitter presidential candidate that lost an election, and insisted on removing at all costs the man that defeated him.
And for the DSS? I concede that they know many things that I don't know, and that they owe the president and the nation some responsibilities, and that in discharging these responsibilities, what should guide them should not be public perception, but rather intends at their disposal. Therefore, it doesn't matter how we view their action; what matters most should be the result, and keeping the nation safe.
Having said this, however, I wait to hear the fresh charges that would be preferred against Sowore, which necessitated his rearrest. If the rearrest is due to his breaching some of his bail conditions, then I will join those who insisted that they should have approached the court instead to ask that court revoke his bail. That's the proper thing to do.
For us all?
I will only advise that we control our emotions a bit and get the true pictures of things before taking our stand. The knock on the DSS was too much.

When I watched this video again, as Sowore was giving his illegal press briefing, this young man in the black suit was standing at his back, hailing him. Some others were surrounding Sowore. A wise voice was cautioning Sowore not to grant the interview. Sowore shunned that wise voice.
If Sowore was not killed while in DSS custody, why will DSS attempt to kill him while in public? Why will DSS operatives wear Lawyers gowns and wigs as Falana claimed? These are tissues of naked lies. All these dramatic personae should be arrested. They are not above the law as DSS is not above the law. They are a national disgrace.
Today, I and millions of other Nigerians have a clearer picture following the press release by the DSS. It has become clear that they didn't invade the courtroom to arrest Sowore. Falana, at least, admitted this and owned up that he was informed by the service of their intention to arrest his client after the court session and outside the court of course.
So, our hasty righteous indignation must have been misplaced! Still, it is excusable because we were all fooled by that video.
I, however, kept asking myself why there were no attempts by other DSS operatives to rescue their man who was trapped and swooped on by the supporters of Sowore as depicted in that video. To me, something didn't add up. The team of DSS could not have been outside, while one of their own was being pummeled in the courtroom.
Today, the jigsaws are falling properly into place!
First, Sowore resisted arrest and was aided in the act by his supporters.
Secondly, his case had ended; again, Sahara Reporters admitted this when they said in their earlier headline: "DSS Trying To Rearrest Sowore After Court Had Adjourned His Case". So, it was obvious that it was Sowore who rushed back into the courtroom and disrupted another ongoing court session.
Thirdly, he hoped to blackmail the security operatives, and whip up sentiment. And he succeeded. But like Lauretta Onochie said, when those who sided him based on the wool he pooled over their eyes eventually know the truth, they will abandon him. And this is true. Some have already realised he only play-acted and have washed their hands off him.
And for those who think that Sowore is insignificant and poses no national threat, I disagree completely with them. He might not be such threat now again, but if the DSS hadn't been proactive and botched the "revolution now" when they did, by arresting him, we can't tell how much the movement could go out of control.
Hasn't he been punished enough?
I would think that Sowore has been punished enough and should be allowed to go.
But...
Has he behaved like someone who has learnt anything yet, and is a bit remorseful?
We trivialize Sowore's case because we are probably looking at the man, Sowore, and not at those that might have been behind his move, those that might have committed funds to the cause, their potency, and what their actual intentions were and how they had planned to have it successfully executed.
Sowore went to the UK, had a meeting among others with Nnamdi Kanu, who, whether you like it or not, is enemy of the state. This meeting was for a purpose, and it was strategic; to recruit thousands of angry IPOB boys into this cause. Sowore posed with Kanu and shared the pictures. It was an endorsement by Kanu, and a message to his boys to join.
This was at a time the Shiites were marching and were being shot and killed, still they were not deterred. They were a willing tool for Sowore, and the clown knew it.
Add these to the bitter losers of the election, the embittered and disappointed members of the society who had thought that PMB was already history, and who didn't want to imagine the prospect of another 4 years with him on the saddle.
Sowore knew what was brewing!
Sowore had planned a movement that would get rowdy, uncontrollable, violent, and invariably lead to the security shooting the "revolutionary marchers", and with that, the "revolution now" would snowball into a proper revolution! It is happening all around us! Algerian president had resigned in April, just 2 months before Sowore's call. His resignation followed weeks of bloody mass protest termed Hirak or "Revolution of Smile" Sowore and his backers knew and wanted to replicate the same thing in Nigeria.
Sowore and his backers knew about Venezuela and wanted to replicate the same experience here by ensuring that things spiral out of hand, to get foreign governments to withdraw support for a president that defeated him in an election.
Note that this year alone, apart from the Algerian president, the Bolivian president, Evo Morales, has also resigned after weeks of mass protests; the same fate has befallen Iraqi prime minister, Adel Abdul Mahdi.
Do we have to talk about the Arab Spring of the 2010 and 2011 that swept away leaders of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and co!
All these revolutions didn't take people with two heads to succeed. It took ordinary people who were not even as powerful as Sowore to achieve them. So, we fool ourselves when we think that Sowore is merely an insignificant noisemaker. No! All it takes to achieve a revolution is an unruly crowd, who could be mistakenly shot at, and would bay for blood and say "Kill us all if you can".
Sowore knew this and banked on it.
Do I feel for him?
No!
You don't lose elections, and then choose to set the nation on fire or attempt to depose the same man who defeated you by chanting "Revolution Now"!
Maybe I would have felt for him if he had shown that he has learnt his lessons after spending over 120 days with the DSS.
Maybe, I would have felt for him if his misguided supporters had come to realise that they misled this young man, and admitted that their attempt was ill-contrived and wrong.
We trivialize Sowore's case because we see him wrongly as an activist and not as a bitter presidential candidate that lost an election, and insisted on removing at all costs the man that defeated him.
And for the DSS? I concede that they know many things that I don't know, and that they owe the president and the nation some responsibilities, and that in discharging these responsibilities, what should guide them should not be public perception, but rather intends at their disposal. Therefore, it doesn't matter how we view their action; what matters most should be the result, and keeping the nation safe.
Having said this, however, I wait to hear the fresh charges that would be preferred against Sowore, which necessitated his rearrest. If the rearrest is due to his breaching some of his bail conditions, then I will join those who insisted that they should have approached the court instead to ask that court revoke his bail. That's the proper thing to do.
For us all?
I will only advise that we control our emotions a bit and get the true pictures of things before taking our stand. The knock on the DSS was too much.

This Sowore Vs DSS Wahala: The Lies Of Sowore And Falana
opera.com
Watching the unexpected issue that happened in the courtroom during the release of Omoyele Sowore is an alarming abuse of the courtroom but as well it can also be a movie drama planned or directed by a movie director known for several false stories telling Omoyele Sowore himself.
When Sowore's re-arrest video trended, it was expected that DSS reacts. They didn't. But now they, Sowore and Falana have reacted.
I WEEP FOR ALL OF US.
DSS claims their operatives were not inside the Courtroom. Falana claims DSS was in the Courtroom, that some were in Lawyers gowns and wigs. Unbelievable. Sowore claims DSS wanted to kill him while in their custody but failed. Now, DSS, in the public of Igwe Mmadu, came with guns to kill him right inside the Courtroom. Do you believe Falana and Sowore?
I doubted DSS until I watched that video again. The only man who was pinning Sowore down was the tall man in the suit. I thought he was a DSS operative. But he alone cannot effect an arrest. And clinging to Sowore who lied on top of him doesn't seem an effective way of arresting a man. I thought he was clinging to Sowore to prevent him from escaping. Now, I know he was clinging to prevent his arrest.
When I watched this video again, as Sowore was giving his illegal press briefing, this young man in the black suit was standing at his back, hailing him. Some others were surrounding Sowore. A wise voice was cautioning Sowore not to grant the interview. Sowore shunned that wise voice.
