FashionRe: Fraud, Identity Theft Committed By Chidimma Vanessa's Mother - SA Home Affairs by ElevationD: 9:36am On Aug 08, 2024
kenbee:
The name "Chidinma" is Igbo but the adetshina is so confusing.

Chidimma should honourably back out than wait to be disgraced.
My humble opinion though
So what is the difference between Adetshina and Adeshina? Are you trying to deceive yourself and confuse others that Adeshina is no longer Adeshina?
CareerRe: Immigration Officer Suspended After Video Of Him "Begging" A Tourist Went Viral by ElevationD: 9:16am On Aug 08, 2024
Very old and disgraceful practice.

They only mentioned what tourists experience at the hands of the shameless immigration officers, who in their positions do not know that the airport is the door into the country. They only talked about what is experienced at the counters. We should also talk about the experience while exiting aircrafts. All those “welcome” are not heartfelt, but borne out of their greedy desire to rip everyone, including Nigerians off.

First time travelers receive horrors from immigration officers. With accusations of holding fake passports/visas to not seeing your face on their screen, just to rip you off.

A few years ago, on arrival, an immigration lady told me that my face did not show up on her screen. I asked her what she meant and she asked me to stand aside while she attended to other disembarking passengers. Having spent over 10 minutes waiting and the crooked lady did not attend to me, I went back to her. I had just returned from Dubai, India and Malaysia. She saw the visas on my phone and I had used it to passport severally. When I started screaming, she called her boss, who then asked her what the problem was. When she gave her stupid story, her boss asked her to screen the passport again, right in my presence. Instantly my face came up and her boss apologized. I asked her to immediately apologize to me otherwise I would embarrass her instantly. She immediately apologized for her attempt to fleece me.

Airports and border points are crooked areas for men and women in uniform to financially fleece everyone, irrespective of country or status. I hope the current internal affairs minister can clean up the mess.

Such complaints have been there for several years. The same issue when a car develops fault around that Ojodu Berger - Ketu Alapere axis at odd hours. That third mainland area and adjoining routes have been dangerous for too long.

They are grossly under policed and some security personnel have been accused of collaborating with the thieves.

By the way, what about the cameras long talked about? Or do we only have cameras that capture drivers who offend with their car paperwork?

Foreign AffairsRe: Russia Sends Air Defences To Iran by ElevationD: 9:50am On Aug 06, 2024
Botragelad:
Russia, a dependable ally? what a farce! Where were they when Israel took out Ismail Haniyeh and those Iranian nuclear scientist? Probably too busy sipping vodka to notice. Let's get real.

Russia's idea of 'support' is sending outdated weapons,etc to their mates and hoping for the best. And since the USA is the bogeyman, they'll inevitably arm Iran, just like the USA is doing in Ukraine.

The real question, of course, is whether these weapons will be anything more than a joke when the mighty Israeli and US war machines come storming in and reduce Iran's key facilities to smoldering rubble just like Russia's currency. Lol

Now, have a look at the photos, would you? That's what a reliable ally looks like - not Russia. If Iran were as confident as they claim, they'd have taken a shot at Israel by now instead of begging for air defence handouts from Russia.

I mean, take a look at the aircraft carriers and warships the US have deployed to the Middle East, that's some serious firepower! And let's be real, Russia's weapons are little more than toys compared to that lot.
Iran knows it, they're just putting on a show for their supporters. Try taking on Israel directly, and see what happens. The Houthis can tell you all about it... if they can stop crying about their last thrashing!😂
Sadly the Iranians may be overestimating their military capacity. They are forgetting that their intention to become a nuclear armed country will go up in flames, as the Israelis have vowed to terminate that plan. The Iranians assumed that the 10 months old war against Hamas has weakened the Israeli military. They may be incorrect, with the contribution of the Americans and some NATO members.

The only reason that Iranians arm such group is the fact that those groups are at close proximity with Israel, guaranteeing them easier and quicker route to attack. A new war between Israel and the whole lot of them would see a reduction in their power.

Are we sure that under existential threat, the Israelis will not resort to nuclear weapons? It is a closely guarded secret and those sorrounding nations pretend that they are non existent. With the avowed intention of axis of resistance to see the end of Israel, would the Israelis, whose leaders have entered into their nuclear bunkers now, sit by and watch?

Our hope is that peaceful settlement can be achieved by all parties. Iran must exercise restraint, otherwise that country would be up in ruins very soon.
PoliticsRe: Why Fuel Importers Will Frustrate Dangote – Obasanjo by ElevationD: 7:25am On Aug 06, 2024
EponObi:
See how Baba Iyabo dey talk like say the rot and mess we are experiencing today didn't start with him.

He's talking about Nigeria putting all her eggs in one basket. Lol. What did he do to diversify our economy as a military head of state and the first and a two-term president after 1999? The man even pushed a third term agenda.

Didn't everyone of them since 1960 abandoned agriculture and chased after oil money?

"I believe we made a very, very deadly mistake" - No sir, I believe YOU made a very, very deadly mistake.

When you invited Shell and they told you about the corruption ruining our refineries, sir, what did you do with the power given to you by the people to crush the cabal and rot in our oil industry? You were president for 8 years, what did you do to put the interest of the people as priority? What efforts did you make to change the trajectory of the NNPC for the benefit of the common Nigerians?

OBJ is saying shit, with all due respect. This is the person some idiots are rallying around because the man they hate so much became president.

Tinubu's bad policies implementions aside, at least for the first time since 1960, we have a brave president who has the political will, muscle, and clout to repurpose our economy. And if the APC had allowed the GEJ the weakling remove the subsidy in 2011, we would have moved past this pain.

There's no going back from here, inshallah. The economy must be rejigged, no matter how pain and strenuous tbe process may be. History will remember Tinubu for not taking the easy route of padding our economy.
Please do not compare Obasanjo with Tinubu. There is no basis for comparison. Obasanjo remains way ahead of him on all fronts. Who discovered Nuhu Ribadu, presently used by Tinubu as the NSA? Obasanjo has the soundest economic team at all his tenures as either the head of state or President.

Brave President? Which of the Presidents can you truly define as brave if not Obasanjo himself. Obasanjo built and commissioned the Warri (1978) and Kaduna refinery then military head of state, which was commissioned by Shagari in 1980. Obasanjo left a very solid economy as a military head of state and repeated the same as a civilian President. Tell us which other refineries apart from Port harcourt 2 have been built since 1965? Obasanjo left 24 the Nigerian airways with 24 aircrafts and the Nigerian national shipping line with over 20 ships, when he vacated office as the head of state? What happened to them all? I can give you a long list of his contributions to the development of Nigeria. Which of the Presidents weighs close to him? None!

What would you expect Obasanjo to do, in the face of the massive corruption and tribal remarks against him by his own people. He set up the EFCC to tackle them and introduced privatization as a way forward. What happened thereafter? The same his people fought him on all fronts.

Tinubu only tries to amend the grave error committed on the first day, with the “brave” face.

While Russia carries out its daily destruction in Ukraine, you may wish to find out what Russia can do to Ukraine if they push back into Russia. Or you may very well ask what it means by “existential threat”.

CrimeRe: Naira Abuse: Bobrisky To Regain Freedom On August 5 by ElevationD: 9:15am On Aug 01, 2024
It’s so sad that Bobrisky had a very inexperienced and poor lawyer advising him. He would not have served jail term if not for the carelessness of his lawyer.

That said, hopefully, Nigerians as a whole have learnt lessons with the case of Bobrisky. Spraying money at occasions is our culture nationwide, but we can replace it with respectfully handing over such monies to the celebrants or collecting in boxes and handin over later. EFCC is asking us to stop abusing our money and it is right. We have some of the ugliest paper monies worldwide because of our poor handling.

For Bobrisky too, hopeful prison time has taught him some lessons about life. Hopefully too, friends and rivals will not distance themselves from him, calling him an ex convict. He should be received, treated respectfully and allowed to peacefully get integrated into society again.

That exactly is it!

BAT too was in a cabal that chased GEJ out of government and afflicted Nigerians with this level of hardship. Sadly they still shamelessly tell us that PDP wasted 16 years of oil boom while in power.

Only out of jail in January? She made up her mind to continue stealing while in prison, as the prison time was not enough.

-Now no more a first time offender.
-The judge can freely give her the 5 - 10 years that she needs in prison.
-When she’s out, she can choose to become an armed robber.
-The house being built by her father will be sold to recover the madam’s money.
-No husband, no child for her
-The crooked gateman can start his preaching in prison
-They will see each other for the last time at their sentencing
-A very worthless lady

We truly need care when engaging these so called househelps. You try to be a good employee, pay good salary, make life easy, yet a lot of them pay back with evil. They either steal or kill. They prefer to get jobs in Lekki, V/I, Ikoyi or Apapa where they think only the affluent reside. She deserves 20 years in jail.

What is your basis for that

I don't think you got my point
The question was about why take Sharia to a country that is not your own and I am telling you Sharia started in one country and spreads slowly like cancer
That is their agenda

?so the question is naive

As their numbers grow their confidence grows and they make a lot of babies
That is what happened to Egypt the Egyptians were not Muslims and they are not Arabs same thing in Iran,Turkey,Afghanistan and so on

Now in the. UK you see Islamic preachers in places like Bristol ,Birmingham turning up every single day 9 to 5 is that possible without funding?

They are preaching publicly messages of Jesus Son of Mary a prophet not son of God and of course a. LESSER PROPHET than Muhammad

Bradford, Luton, Blackburn, Birmingham, London and Dewsbury are on course to become Muslim majority
We are saying the same thing. Do not be anxious. Please read again my initial comment.

I wondered why people would forcefully impose their beliefs on others, in the lands and cities of the same people who are not of their faith. Sadly these same people do not permit preaching of your faith in their countries.
