₦airaland Forum

We are in for a long ride, what else can one do other than to watch and pray, in a country that hunger is now weapon used in controlling the masses.

SpecialAdviser:
I read the whole article and didn't understand what OP means. Can anyone give me a reference to Obi on this?

It seems you are new on nairaland. For your information, Obi must be mentioned for it to attract traffic or alternatively Igbo.
I just don't understand this country anymore.

Source? You can't just type randomly or quote unverified post and expect 200m Nigerians to swallow it.

You go tire.. When u where throwing it at Tinubu before he even declared interest to run, you didn't remember atiku etc.. I told u guys that u teach other tribes and they are fast learner, the copy u and once the do u back u begin to cry.. U never see anything

Probably, you assume everyone is like you. Rational thinking is your cognitive bottleneck.

Make una free PO, it's turning to an obsession, How many people did Tinubu, kwankwanso, Atiku and other presidential candidates congratulate?
This steady nagging is obsolete, irritating and nauseating and it's always coming from the camp of the " supposed winner " of the election.

Yeye the smell, Both the organizers for allowing him to contest, the transferred gender himself, anyone that voted or supported him, " Are all mad".

"If no be panadal e no fit work like panadol". Despite all the body modifications, the him in her is still obvious. Nothing can be compared to follow come.

Politics has really sync this guy brain, I remember when everyone is putting out this guy quotes on WhatsApp status as motivation.
How the mighty has fallen. All he does this days is to throw childish jab, so incoherent. I just has to unfollow him on Twitter.

Neoteny7:
This is another problem with you Nigerians: whataboutism. Just because someone allegedly got away with a crime doesn't mean anyone can commit same without punishment.

Jamb has the discretion to enforce its policies, while the government law enforcement can also ensure justice is done to criminals.

This girl had ample opportunities to come clean, but instead she spent days perpetuating her criminal act, and you want her to get a mere slap of the wrist? What would then deter someone else from forging their scores if we're so sympathetic to criminals? They'd say the risk is well worth it

Laws exist to punish and deter without sympathy and that is what should apply here.

In as much as I agree with you on the bolded, Take a critical analysis of the said crime, will the 362 give her an admission? of the what benefits is the 362? she wanted to use it to obtain scholarship of which any serious organisation are supposed to verify before awarding her, which is exactly what the Anambra state government did, Jamb PRO said on TV, you can modify your result it will not have any effect on the Board or your result, why this case is gaining such weight was because of the enthinc and religious coloration attributed to it else, it is as good as sewing pilot uniform , it won't make you a pilot.

Neoteny7:
Listen.

When you break laws, you face the consequences. This is what makes society works. Imagine telling bandits to simply apologize and walk away free

If Nigeria works, that girl should be jailed for the crime of forgery.

Nothing else but this

That is "IF", But you and I know of high profile cases of forgery what was the consequence?
Injustice to one is inJustice to all, If we go by the "IF" statement then Striping her of the 365 is the appropriate punishment, Invalidating her of her 246 is selective punishment

Neoteny7:
So your opinion is that an adult (19!) should be rewarded instead of being punished according to the country's laws.

There's no place I said she should be rewarded, Invalidating her present Jamb scores of 249 is punishment enough, barring her for the next 3years to me, is not necessary, she has been scrapped of all the accolades, made to apologise, lesson learnt it's time to be rational.

Now that it has been proven that she forged her results, I stand with Ezekwesili on this, she need to be punished for her action, But considering her age, Jamb should tamper Justice with mercy, They should allow her to retake the exam next year, this way after restitution, she can prove herself. Lesson has been learnt, myself Included, I believe the girl when the news broke.

Ebubu6:
Wike shouted Rivers is not part of Biafra. Till today Biafra sit at home enforcers have not neared Rivers state.


That is my aim as I shout we are not part of Biafra. It is so as you can leave us alone and focus on other states for us to have peace. We do not intend to kill the economy of our nascent young state.

Then let Ebonyi Governor or SE governors Emulate wike technique. A governor is the security head of his state, that's their Job.
creating topics trying to cause division among enthic group is among the cause of problem Nigeria is battling now.
Rest if you are not a paid propagandist.

The way and Manner this Ebubu6 stress "Ebonyi is not part of Biafra" I suspect he is not an Ebonyi Indigene, it smell like all those propagandist trying to cause division.
All his comments are all geared towards that aim.
I don't know how you guys wait for news, spin it, blow it out of proportion just to instigate tribal or religious division.

His vote is not for sell, Beside he is not a singer, He did what every patriotic Nigerian was expected to do during Electioneering period. The rest is left for God. He is back to what put Food on his table.
Some of you ( paid propagandist) that collect stipend to create conflicting topics, slander opponents you consider threats and believe everything is all about money, religion and tribe are going about snapping him thinking everyone thinks like you.

I agree with your assertions. The girl might not know anything about this matter at all but people around her (school, relatives, etc) do.

I'm also with you on the bolded about the spirit of togetherness that is building among the Igbos but at the same time care should be taken so that it would not turn to something else if they start doing that blindly, it could result into something worse than the initial spirit of selfishness being accused of.

One cannot blame JAMB too much in this instance. On a normal day they wouldn't have come out to say anything about the matter if not the Anambra state government contacting them directly to confirm the authenticity of the claim (Why did the government do that if not that they are suspecting foul play? maybe one of the people privy to the matter already started talking when they saw the unexpected financial gratification the girl is getting). JAMB immediately told the government about the real score only for the girl to go online (maybe pushed by the so called spirit of togetherness without confirming who is at fault and making it seem like the uncompromising, no-nonsense boss of JAMB is victimising her because she is Igbo and he is Yoruba Muslim).

This kind of comradeship should be displayed the way someone like Oby Ezekwesili did by contacting Prof. Oloyede to know about the matter. I'm sure when that one gave her the evidence on the ground she kept quiet immediately (though I would have loved her to speak out to call her people to order) and never said anything about it again. Other people are involved in this fraud, Yoruba, another northerner from Kaduna who also happened to be one of the highest scorers too, but nobody heard anything from them or their tribesmen about victimization because they know what they did. This newfound comradeship of the Igbos should be nurtured carefully before a victim or defeatist mentality starts setting in.

well noted

It is so nauseating when you see people who don't want to try and be objective just for once just because of a vested interest. In your own case I don't know what the interest is that is making you just facing one direction. I was also trying to reason from the girl's angle before that there might be issue with JAMB, but after seeing the irrefutable evidence against her it is very obvious that this is really fraud. Maybe the girl didn't know about it but definitely, people around her do and they know who must have used such in the past and scaled through that is why they are hell bent on pushing this too thinking it will.

They also found a willing tool in the hands of those that have turned it into their usual tribal/religious war and keep pushing the girl.

There are no 2 conflicting results from JAMB, they have made that clear that the printout she is holding is definitely not from them, the only result from them is the one they keep giving to her each time she querries their system using the SMS, which portal did she go to to print out the result she is holding? she should give us the url (we confirm it belongs to jamb) and give us her details and let us quarry it too, to see what it will display for us. The truth is that there is NOBODY that sat for this year's JAMB that has that kind of result she is holding except they too went through the same app for generating results.

Unfortunately for them, they met their match in the non-compromising Prof. Oloyede. They were able to generate the results for the candidates but couldn't log the results into the JAMB system hence the reason why all these happened.

Do you know how many sites online can issue you an 'American Visa' today? what concerns America to be running after those sites. If you need American Visa you know where to go to get it, if you take yourself to any of the fraudulent sites and they give you Visa, then go and be arguing with Immigration Officer that they should be going after fraudulent sites on your behalf as if they are the one that sent you there in the first place.

I beg, this whole thing is so so irri.tating the way they have just turned it to. Thank God sef that the person that actually got the highest mark is from the same State, only God knows what would have happened.




We learn every day

Initially I stood with the girl, but After listening to Jamb PRO, during the televised interview, I had to rethink,In this age of technology, it's not difficult to detect such crime, if Jamb said they have the record of the communication between the candidate and the portal, then I believe Jamb, that the girl actual scores is 249 and not 346 as initially claimed.

my assertion are;
1. The school is a suspect here, without the girls knowledge, we all know how school drag bragging rights of producing the best candidates.

2. The girl in question might or might not be aware of the plot, because I don't think she has anything to gain from that bragging right.

3. Jamb didn't handle the whole stuff professionally, from their first announcement when investigation was still on, I believe that was what instigated the citizens her kinsmen to come to her defence.
"The parable of the lost sheep might not make meaning to you, untill that lost sheep is you"

I love the spirit of comradeship Igbos are building now, an attack to one is an attack to all, Igbos has been known for selfishness, same people attacking them for this newly comradeship once criticized them saying "igbos don't like themselves" they can sell their brothers for money.

4.The girl need to open up and own up now, so that if there's any element of Mercy left, Justice can be tampered with mercy.

I stand to be corrected.

Iamgrey5:
How is jamb spelling even wrong?

check the Jamb Logo and the word "integrity"

1.I love the confidence, She has been taking first position since her primary school and more importantly she is synonymous to "369" going by her previous external examination.

2. If the "QR" bar code keep producing different scores with different candidates name then it could be technical error from Jamb server.

3. This has enter court of public opinion,. the next thing is law suit flying up and down......for the sake of the girl sanity, let Jamb not drag this isssue further, let them settle amicably with the school offline, if possible let her rewrite the said exam.

DevilsEqual:
The 55th means its more like an annual debate and since its a National debate, It would have had diff winners in the past, so judging by just a year result when there are other 54 winners in the past shows how unsmart u are.

That said, I know every traits and characteristic attributes of a Yoruba person and Envy isnt among....I mean, these people rarely travel to other regions in Nigeria cause they dont even fancy/and care less about what kinda development is going on elsewhere in Nigeria(Except for Abroad).

How do u envy what u dont know?

Its like saying U.K citizens are envious of Nigerians, I mean, these guys dont even think our country is worthy enough to receive their visit...How do they envy what they care less about....Very Laughable

Congrats to those who represented Anambra in the debate...I wish them greater height

You will achieve great things in life.
Life is live and let live, but some people are so grossly occupied with Hatred, Envy and Jealousy.
Unfortunately Nairaland provide a forum for them to come and manifest all kind of devilish attributes.

How else can one define Idleness?

You created 8 Topics, All the 8 topics are about SE/SS.
The Energy you are putting into it, the choice of words, Every intelligent person can deduce the following.
1.You are not from South south nor south east
2. You are either a paid actor trying to cause/instigate SS against SE
3. You are obsessed with SE
4. if you are not paid for this propaganda then you are Jobless.

I stand with Messi, There's wisdom in knowing when to hold on and when to let go, If you feel fulfilled why stress yourself because of what others think?

My Guy, enjoy your retirement.
You came, you saw, you conquered, not everyone is that lucky in life.

kyber:
Just look at what this female gender said !!
This is first degree murder, plan and thought to kill with serious intent….
How can a person habour such thoughts in her mind…
Truly fear women oo, they are not to be trusted.

What do you think ?

What do you have to say ?

The Joke is on the Man that sees this and proceed to wife or even date her, the man has already decided his fate.
A colleague during group conversation once said if her husband tries to marry another woman she will just secretly kill him, others laughed but uptill this moment I don't think I can receive even if it's a non eatable stuff from her, From the abundant of the heart the mouth speaketh, when ever I see her, an inner voice will just whisper, look at a potential killer, and that's how I see her "murderer"

America rapper, dbull face too strong to be celeb

200naira socks and 3500 palm


Oga rest better go learn work than wasting your time bro

Guy do you have personal problem with our Nairaland celebrity? Abeg, Support your guy, D bull.
Meanwhile from my personal perspective, He has been consistent from music to fashion, the struggle is real, perseverance pays, one day, Baba God will pick his call and he will look back to comments like yours and smile.

Back to the question, I think the simplicity of the fashion fits the American guy more, my opinion though.

rtdCivilservant:
So a whole department in a school no get 2.5M? So annoying of the HOD, can't he donate like 500k, and source the remaining from other lecturers in the department.

Guy you are Funny, do you know the said HOD didn't receive salary for 8months likewise the lecturers in the department due to ASUU strike, some are just recovering from the debt they incurred from various sources and you want same HOD whose salary is like 475k to donate 500k?
The best bet is to tax N500 as accreditation fee from all students in his department and he will have leftover to handover to the next administration as "Excess crude"

I know a nairalander will believe this trend.
what the man used is a rechargeable bulb, by placing your hand on it, will have same effect, any conductor will have same effect, any tree on this planet will have same effect except it's a dried wood which is an insolator.

People catching fun by making fake videos is now news.

Crystalom35:
nothing is fishy.

This is my 6th year in the school for the same 4 years course. I moved to medicine doesn't mean they've graduated or they are in a different time line.

Don't you have simple sense to comprehend?

The problem with lies is that you will always need a bigger lie to cover up the previous lies, it keeps going untill it's too big to cover up again. Guy just advertise your work and move on, stop exposing your ignorance here not everyone is dumb on this forum.
