Foreign Affairs › Re: UK's Center-Left Labour Party Will Win General Election In A Landslide by ElevationD: 4:46am On Jul 05, 2024
MT:
Rishi Sunak is smarter than this Stammer. Rishi stabilized the shambled economy inherited from Liz and he was so bold about the direction he was heading. Starmer was evasive in some of his policies.

Rishi literally annihiliated Starmer during the debate.

Being Indian was the only thing against him which the Brits didn't like.

I wish Starmer best of luck but I cant see him implementing lot of changes with his overwhelming majority in the Parliament.

The knives will soon be out for him.
And the Indians would never give you their citizenship, yet they have citizenships of other countries all over the world. Spend eternity and you’ll never be an Indian. If the English were tribalistic, Rishi Sunak would not be the PM.

Rishi Sunak's government has faced the economic consequences of Covid 19, tensions with the union, high national debt, high energy prices, inflation with the citizens groaning under it, weak economic growth, etc.

It’s time for him to leave, just like we do not expect one baba to stay beyond 2027 with his horrible errors in Nigeria.

They somehow lose more than Israel each time the exchanges happen.

If the Israelis do not kill commanders, they kill large number of citizens. They also destroy whole towns and communities. Hezbollah, Hamas, Iran, PL, Syria, the Houthis, always pay far worse prices.

This war needs to end.

Pressed by the axis of evil and a threat to the existence of the state of Israel, expect the use of nuclear weapons in the Middle East.

First government ensures that push cart operators are declared illegal.
Next government insists on patronizing LAWMA accredited agents.
Next, LAWMA agents are not regular with pickin
G up refuse.
The citizens do not want to live with huge refuse in their homes.
Citizens payments are not up to day
When the rains come and there are no trucks to pick up refuse, the people resort to self help.
Even the dump sites are eye sores. You can go to Igando and Ojota. When it rains, those who live around the dump sites scream about the poisonous environment.
Government failed to deal with the poor environment around those areas.
The same government that failed with provision of essential services, wants to arrest and prosecute citizens.

Government must ensure that their agents pick up refuse accordingly and without delays. Citizens must pay for the services to save themselves any embarrassment from government.
Education › Re: Ahmed Ayinla Fabiyi: Cultists Kill Final Year Student Of TASUED During Exam by ElevationD: 12:39pm On Jul 04, 2024
What a shame.
All the joy in the hearts of his parents at his birth; all the efforts and resources spent to send him to school; all the expectations of taking care of his parents in their all age; all were in vain.

What a life. What a society. Where will his parents start from? What if he was their only child?

Who will take this menace off our society? Who will help our youths to stop cultism?

This is so sad and heart wrenching.

they didn't confront them, they only blocked the road. Its surprising the soldiers didn't do what they know how to do best(shooting unarmed protesters).

Uniben students wey their head dey hot, if the soldiers had mistakenly fired a shot, it would have been bloody.

Let me make something clear, I for one, I'm not afraid of any soldier or police, I only respect the uniform they wear because they are constituted authorities. If they can remove the uniform and keep their service rifle aside, we go do am MAN TO MAN.
“…we go do am MAN TO MAN”.

Crime › Re: 28-Year-Old Son Kills Father, Anglican Reverend In Delta by ElevationD: 11:14am On Jul 04, 2024
nnadychuks:
Only a weak father would watch his son rot in the hands of a police. Obviously you don’t know what strength and weakness is.
You are wrong?

So if you have a confirmed armed robber as a son, who terrorists you, your family and the neighborhood, you’ll protect him from the police?
A weak father is that one who in the face of dangerous realities confronting him and his family, pretends that all is well. If your son threatens to kill you and makes a definite effort to carry out his threat, it will become very foolish of you to wait until he carries out his act. He showed himself to you as your number 1 enemy. Who lost out in the end? It was not just the man, but the entire family who lost their father and now the son to spend the rest of his life in prison.

Probably as a priest, the man tried to practice what he preached. He probably always preached peace and unity in the home. The boy however was way beyond his control and he needed to call security in him. If he did that, the man probably would be alive and free. A strong willed father would without delay get the police to detain him.
Crime › Re: 28-Year-Old Son Kills Father, Anglican Reverend In Delta by ElevationD: 7:43am On Jul 04, 2024
Finally the son landed in the same police station that the father prevented him from getting to. Unfortunately this time the boy killed his father.

When there’s threat to life, there’s e Emory already. It does not matter the person is your biological child or family member. Stay away as far apart as possible.

The man made some sentimental errors and those cost him his life in the end.

What a pity.

If that is the case, please pay Nigerians their salaries and add the allowances and let’s see if there will be any complain.

You collect salary of 40k and allowance of 25m and yet you tell us that it does not last beyond three days. You are given free accommodation, free cars and security to add and yet you tell Nigerians who voted you in that your salaries are not enough? Why not give the same workers free homes, free transport and see if they will complain?

Our representatives are truly shameless.

He can simply get his colleagues and himself to show Nigerians their current payslips. When they seek votes they hide nothing. The moment they get into positions, their salaries become secret and contentious.

He displayed his credit alert of 697k in 2022, but he failed to show the other allowances. They major amounts they receive appears to be the other allowances the lady talked about.

He can simply tell us the total package to disprove the woman’s story.

It is the duty of the Discos. That’s why they are called distribution companies. There is no longer NEPA or PHCN in existence.

Now we have the power generating companies who generate the power. The sell power to distribution companies, who in turn sell to the consumers. They have the business of infrastructures like meters and transformers.
Crime › Re: Troops Kill Wanted IPOB Kingpin, Arrest Two Other ‘notorious Terrorists’ by ElevationD: 6:08pm On Jul 02, 2024
ChiefJusticeFuc:
That's because it was only as recent as 1951 that slavery was officially abolished in Ibo land.

Do you know that up till the early 1900s Ibo slaves were still being exported under the liscence of the British crown ?
One notorious Nwabanni fellow was arrested with dozen or more slaves on his way from Anambra to Calabar to supply slaves to a British trading company operating in Brazil.

The British colonial officer detained Nwabanni and set the slaves in his possession free. But Nwabanni will petition the Colonial govt and have his "property" returned to him after providing a liscence to supply slaves to a Rothschild plantation company in Brazil.

You must understand that it was only as recent as 1951 that the British officially banned slavery in Ibo land.

The Ibo elite who are exclusively drawn from the freeborn and ruling class had little or no regard for the newly emancipated slaves. It was at this point in history that the discriminatory caste system became more rigidly enforced so as to prevent the now emancipated slaves from contesting and wining elective positions.

The sufferings of the majority during the war that occured a mere 15ys after the abolition of slavery in iboland , did not register in the consciousness of the Ibo elite aka freeborn who were more ready to weaponize the mass suffering of their people for propaganda points. This is why Gowon lamented and said "the Ibo elite have no care for their people's sufferings".

So it shouldn't surprise you that IPOB is repeating the same self inflicting evil and wickedness like that of the Arochukwu slave raiders and the Ibo Marxists in Enugu during the war years..
Waoh.

Do you know that the British officially ended slavery in 1807?
Do you know that slavery was deemed ended in Yorubaland in 1893?
Have you read about slavery in Oyo and Lagos, before is abolition?
Do you know that owning slaves was a status symbol in Yorubaland before its abolition?
Do you know that Yoruba slaves were exported to South America, North America and Europe, before its abolition?
Why have you failed to give an insight into slavery in Nigeria as a whole before its abolition? Or do you want to show that there was nothing live slave trade in Yorubaland?

Obansy112:
If he's worst as you claimed, he can't be hiding in kogi state and his people didn't snitch on him. Yahaya Bello is far better than all the kogi previous governor's. Truth is bitter, Yahaya Bello is only been whitch hunted by Emilokon boys who feel threaten by his achievements as kogi governor.
And he got his boys to cut off the road leading to Senator Natasha Akpoti’s area, so that electoral materials would not get there and she would not win the election?

Who is the witch hunter?

Dino Melaye’s prediction that Yaya Bello would end his governorship in prison is coming to pass. First he has made mockery of himself. Next he made himself a fugitive.

Yaya Bello became a mini Wike in Kogi state. He systematically underdeveloped Kogi state.

It is shameful that some of you support such horrible leaders. Go around Kogi state and you will be horrified at the poor state of infrastructures. Leaders are chosen to make societies and living better. When your leaders, rather than build your states, choose to embezzle the resources and you eulogize them, then know that you are confined to a perpetual state of misery with your consent.

A sad one. There are way too many domestic violence deaths springing up. Can right conflict resolution be included in pre marriage counselling.

Don't know how much help that would bring, but if even one life can be saved from it then it would be worth it.
When you have a deeply jealous or possessive spouse, resolving such issues as infidelity becomes a very tall order.

I think those with such insanely possessive behaviors, who feel so insecure, should not get into relationships at all in the first place.

How is it that Nigeria, Niger, Chad and Cameroon cannot completely wipe out boko haram, Iswap, bandits and other terrorists in a matter like this with speed?

Is it that the militaries of these countries are very weak, or that they do not have enough funding for their militaries to wipe out these people?

How is it that boko haram and herdsmen cannot find spaces in Benin Republic, Togo and Ghana?

Wasted 15 years in prison. In prison since about 2004. Society evolved. Jonathan became the President after Yaradua. Fashola left power for Ambode and Sanwo Olu. Ojodu Berger was rebuilt. Too many things happened while he was away.

What a life.

Hopefully he can reconnect with society and make something out of it and recover the lost time.

Reasonable people know that giving palliatives is absolute waste of time and resources.
He must tackle insecurity completely first, as the so called General who promised to lead the battle in front, failed woefully.
Next would be to deal with every issue affecting agriculture. Get farmers to go back to their farms and ensure sustainability with food production.
Once those are tackled, government can face other issues of infrastructure, etc.
BAT made the mistake on his Inauguration Day and it’s gone now. The nation must move forward.
