What more can Soludo do? The new homeland security law is in place and working effectively. SASA is in place dealing with criminality. Various vigilante groups have been working it. Now there is the operation know your neighbour/tenant/visitor. This man would not have addressed this press conference in Awka and walked away safely this time last year. The obnoxious sit at home that chased citizens away from the state has expired, with many non state actors neutralized. Touting has come to an end. Government collaborated with police to make the state better. Politics aside, Soludo is trying his best to make the state better. Now it is the turn of the citizens to join the government in this security effort. All you need to do is to pass information about criminals, criminal act or a potential criminal act and that’s it. Anambra will get return to its best again. |
That’s it. Ndi aka odo. They move around with pestles. Touts vanish on sighting them. They simply break their legs. They cleaned up Onitsha headbridge bridge and upper Iweka. I witnessed them in action in January. |
It has never been allowed. The police authorities have reiterated this several times. Once in 2015, I needed to purchase a bag at a boutique in Ojuelegba. As I was walking, I suddenly heard “hey, come here”! A command. Since I did not think it was me, I continued. Next I saw the policeman right in my face. He said that he was on stop and search and I then asked him what he wanted. I saw their team bus and other policemen. I opened my big brown envelope with my passport and visas in it. I showed him my wallet with money in it. He touched my pockets and I did not complain. Next he asked me for my phones. I asked him why and he he said that he had the right to search my phone. I looked closely and deeply at him and calmly said “can you take me to your station now”? He was shocked. The next thing, his team leader came around and asked what was going on. He explained and said that he requested to look into my phone, but that I requested to go to their office. The leader straight away warned him and told him clearly, that one day he would land that team into trouble. The leader then said to him “you no dey look face”? He apologized and let me go. Once you have issues with the police on the roads, please call their emergency numbers. They will respond and act on it. In all, the Police force should help the public deal with those officers at Oluku junction, on the approach to Benin. The roads in Delta and Edo states do not have peace, because of some horrible policemen. |
naptu2:That’s the challenge you have here on this forum. A bunch of illiterates clothed in garments of graduates, very young and inexperienced and never having any form of understanding of the subjects that they attempt to discuss. Direct invitations were given to all heads of states. Just as is the standard with the inauguration of Presidents worldwide, special areas called VVIP and VIP are designated to them. Security and protocol are provided to ensure compliance and tags are given. The illiterates including the fake Christians FFK and Reno Omokri, who should be in the better position to explain the situation, chose the irresponsible political path, so they could use it to cement their ambassadorial ambition with Tinubu. With all the knowledge that they claim to have, one would ask why they have never purchased tickets to contest political positions. Why did they choose to overlook Kayode Fayemi, an equally prominent Nigerian and who also had the presidential ambition previously? By the way, Obi is a catholic. He’s been a catholic all his life. He’s a papal knight. Tinubu is a Muslim and would never have come around that area, if he was not the President. He would have been standing in the crowd! FFK and Omokri would have been standing in the crowd, except they went with the FG delegation with free tickets, estacode, free hotels and accomodation. Even the President’s security had their limitations within the area. No other leader politicized meeting the Pope, except APC. So to them, meeting the Pope was like winning the World Cup. So to them the handshake that Tinubu had with the Pope was a golden handshake, a very prominent award. What a shame. Obi had met other Popes. He was at the inauguration of the late Pope along with the same Kayode Fayemi, who is equally a catholic. Political leaders will continue to have this strangle hold over the so called masses or common man. Rather than hold them accountable for their misgovernance, they choose to agree with whatever comes their way, because of tribalism and religion. Nigerians have been driven into the worst form of poverty and suffering since 2015 and yet they queue to follow their oppressors. No one has risen to ask questions so far among the oppressed. |
rinzaugustine:First he never had a goal for himself. He has absolutely showed that he does not know the difference activism and accountability. He has showed that he truly was a Tinubu follower all the time, while pretending to secure the Presidency for himself. He has shown that growing up has been a big problem for him. Rather than market himself and his party, he cunningly markets Tinubu, attempts to de-market Obi and pretends to want become the President. I think that he should just pull off his garment of activism and join Festus Keyamo, a former pretended activist in cabinet of Tinubu. |
Soulsymbol99:Sure. George Moughalu is an APC man. Decamping to LP and attempting to defeat Soludo, will help APC take over Anambra state through the back door, as Moughalu will find his way back to APC. Again, it is another method of decimating LP’s votes in Anambra state, easily paving the way for APGA to retain the seat. As it stands, LP controls most of the national and states assembly seats in Anambra state, because of Obi’s image. I am of the opinion that INEC is in a hide and seek with LP, until the last minute. They will finally recognise the Nenadi Usman faction, but first being the agent to ruin LP’s chances in Anambra state. |
So to APC suffering supporters, having a handshake with the Pope is a record breaker? Even FFK popular called anywhere belle face, has added his voice to a nine existing matter. Truly poverty, hardship and misery has completely engulfed APC supporters. Obi has over the years visited the Vatican, a sacred place for Christians. He was there in 2013 with the same Kayode Fayemi as Governors, when Pope Francis was inaugurated. Why was Tinubu not there?Obi was there as part of Nigeria’s official delegation to the canonization of Pope John Paul and Mother Theresa. Why was Tinubu not there? He is involved with Scholas occurrentes, the global initiative founded by Pope John Paul. Tinubu was only invited in his capacity as the President of Nigeria and accorded that dignity. Obi is a catholic and even was there on the private invitation of the Vatican, along with Kayode Fayemi. What a shame that youths who should engage their leaders on their irresponsible acts of pilfering and damaging the country, choking them with poverty, are here, along with FFK to further expose to the world that they are the ones who created the religious divisions and everyday promote it. If not for his status as the President, in what capacity would Tinubu have walked into the VVIP section, an area designated for the Presidents or their representatives? JD Vance was there. Zelensky was there, as the German Chancellor, just like other world leaders. No noise, no politics, all peaceful. The shameless APC supporters turned it into a political matter. As you are busy suffering the hardship, you see Tinubu’s son, enjoying the best of his father’s position. What about you? No three square meal. Tinubu’s son and family enjoy watertight security, yet you citizens cannot close your eyes when you travel from Lagos to Kano. And that includes FFK himself. Make una get small shame. |
TimeManager:Sometimes one wonders how people like you make such comments. What you know nothing about or have an idea about it, simply listen to others and discover better information for yourself. Your so called Junta got into power two years ago and yet to you has been the source of terrorism in Nigeria. Who know if you even understand the words “junta” and “terrorism”? Who knows if you have any idea how many borders surround your country and who the neighbors are? |
lexy2014:Because as severally alleged, some security agents, politicians and locals are involved, reaping millions and billions from the destructions going on in the communities. It has been alleged that even soldiers have been asked not to shoot at them. |
Zonefree:Can you describe “it’s purest form” please? |
Goodvibes007:What about Okokomaiko, Agege, Mushin, Bariga, Shibiri, Ejigbo, Ajegunle, Amukoko, Ilepo before Abule Egba, Ijedodo, Olusosun, Oko filling to Lanre with many years refuse, Makoko untop black water? All of them long before you were born, the same story before and after Christmas. Always remained very dirty. |
NaijaphiliaBlog:Very correct. Victory attributed to Obi, who did not have a so called structure. Victory attributed to the Obidient movement. Victory attributed to Otti who led others in Abia state to the party. Shame to Abure, who has claimed to build the house and with his hands, wants to completely destroy it. |
“ Any lawyer who studied Logic must know that the Supreme Court has not sacked Abure. It did not say his tenure has expired. Is the Supreme Court afraid of Abure that they did not say his tenure has expired”? Can you imagine that? That Abure man just said the above. Are lawyers supposed to study logic? Are lawyers not supposed to study law? So Abure continues his reckless claim, holding onto logic rather that following the law. |
Pristine664:And you think that it amounted to good mannerisms, when ye had that cap on his heads? Would your culture tolerate that? That was not the Pope by the way. |
That will always be the sad story until we begin to get better leaders into positions. OP, you must have voted for the wrong persons in the last elections. Continue on your bad road? Why did Aregbesola and Oyetola not fix the road. Why lay the blame on Adeleke? While I am not holding brief for Adeleke, looking at the images, one can easily say that the road had long been damaged. By the way, where are the members of the NASS from those affected areas? You can keep posting images to Umahi. Perhaps he will take a look one day. |
Mrchippychappy:It is not a rule. It is thuggery and irresponsibility. There’s no rule anywhere that prevents a musician from leaving the venue peacefully and safely, without molestation and gunshots from thieves, in the name of area boys. It has been going on for ages. That’s why many big musicians go around with heavily armed bodyguards. Actors and actresses have vacated decent areas to move into more peaceful communities to ply their trade. What if they killed him in the process? Why should he drop the money? Is it that easy? Some of you promote and seriously advance laziness. That’s why politicians ensure that citizens are perpetually in servitude, when you support such responsibility. The thugs must be arrested and correctly prosecuted. Now you don’t find great artists performing outside large theaters. Pasuma should not be treated that way. He is not in the league of the likes of Portable. Even Portable himself would not be harassed in the manner and you expect the attackers to get away easily. |
flokii:Please stop polluting Lagos and social media spaces with your racist talk. Find your way to South Africa, where you can meet your fellow Zulus, receive your spear, and dress half naked as a sign of living in the Stone Age. While you are busy trying to set others back, a Yoruba lady just became the Mayor of a Borough in London. Another Yoruba is the leader of a major political party in the UK. While the world is moving forward, just like Buhari that you supported, you are moving backwards. While civilization is moving at great speed forward, there you are, still living in a cave. |
Kam2021:It is a complete disgrace. Follow a loaded container truck from Volks into the market and see how much is paid to various groups and you”ll wonder what’s going on. Check out how much the unions receive from keke and okada riders daily and you’ll be shocked. Infact okadas collect as much as 700 from Iyana Iba to Alaba Rago junction, a walkable distance. It is truly a pity. |
Slytiger:Olodo. Maybe you just left secondary school and do not know that Oshodi/Isolo has produced Igbos as members of the house of reps. Olodo, you do not know that Desmond Elliot is not a Yoruba man like you. Olodo, you do not know that APC Ojo comprises of persons of all the tribes in Nigeria. Olodo, you do not know that for ages, all tribes have been represented appropriately with happiness in different positions in Lagos. Do not be ashamed to mention the small village outside Lagos state where you come from. Lagosians in Ojo and all parts of Lagos are proud to belong. Tribalists and racists like you who pollute the state with your reckless talks are not needed. |
Jokay07:Better that you explained. Now do not forget that the military competition among the world’s strongest military powers, daily increases. The Americans are in a fierce battle against the Chinese. That’s why each passing day you hear that they talk of a future war with the Chinese. The Americans developed hydrogen bombs and the rest of the world copied. Today, the Russians hold the largest stockpile of nuclear armaments worldwide. The game is looking into what your competitor is doing. The game is looking ahead of your competitor. So even if you make any errors with your equipment, you improve. Trump chose the path of a trade war with China and the Chinese retaliated. The same Trump after his threats and actions, through back channels, has started negotiations with the same Chinese, who refused to be cowed. I am not holding brief for the Chinese. I am only letting you know that the Chinese are not sleeping. They are thinking ahead of the Americans and the rest of the world. They have control of the critical weapons for military production. They make technological errors, but they will get there. Thanks for a good discussion. |
Jokay07:“You built a jet to detect another stealth jet or bomb that has not even gone into production”? Did you read what you wrote? In one word you wrote built. The other word production. If it was not built, how was it produced. If it was not intended to be produced in certain quantities, what was the purpose of the technology? If it would not be used in warfare in future, why the effort? Nations are thinking ahead. No decent nation wants to be dominated by another. While the Israelis daily pound and destroy Hezbollah with high grace equipment, your country’s military uses Toscano jets, bombing open fields and missing targets, while you all hail them. |
Ttalk:Better English no gree you sef? Oga na garage you dey work? |
Ttalk:Olodo. Read well una no go gree. Na to dey pursue malu inside bush. If you read clearly, you would have found that Fayemi asked Obi who was sitting on his own to greet the President. Both of them Catholics, welcomed the President to their church. It was an honour even given to the President to be at the inauguration. As long as he was there, he was the head of the Nigerian delegation. His capacity automatically made him the head of all Nigerians even in the Vatican and not Obi alone. Make una no let malu life dey worry una too much. |
JobAndVacancies:You club no pass Blackpool. |
Udstar:No watch our match again make e no dey pain you. |
