PoliticsRe: Bello Turji: N20m Cash Zamfara Community Paid To Bandit Leader To Avoid Attacks by Eriokanmi:

LoneWolf212:
But I think say Aisha gentle
But the boy was right. Aisha suddenly became a shepopotamus, to the extent that she was competing with mama peace in size. Glad to note the boy is a northerner and those protesting know so well she's apc's number one's wife...what a bad signal.

Buhari and apc would be the worst we've ever had in Nigerian political space. I just dey look those shouting Emilokan upandan dey laff dem. Owo wa ni, ęję ka bayin naa. Spend your last card, Tinubu and APC will never smell that place come 2023.

I blame APC lead government for failing the citizens sad.



APC deserves to be vote out in the next presidential elections.
If buhari were a leader with conscience, he would just step aside for failing the Nigerian youths whom they promised 3m jobs yearly in 2015. Never again will the apc resurface after February 2023. Thus is worse than a suicide mission. Wjat if whales had eaten them up in the deadly deep ocean? Omg! This is scary. Only God knows how many Nigerians had taken the scary journey successfully before these trios
SportsRe: Netherlands Vs Qatar: FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022: (2 - 0) On 29th Nov 2022 by Eriokanmi: 6:00pm On Nov 29, 2022
Take it or you leave it. Qatar had achieved their purpose already. They're not struggling to win as host nation but seek global attention and publicity. See as people throng quatar for tourism in near future. They would also make a lot of money during and after the tournament.
PoliticsUrchins Are Like Dogs That Bark, Don't Listen To Them. Learn From Gov Adeleke by Eriokanmi(op):
It's no more news that governor Adeleke of osun state, aka the dancing governor's brand new administration has been inaugurated. I join the millions of good people of osun state to congratulate him. The expectations are high, we know but he will certainty deliver with the right people on his side. I'm glad he didn't labour till death the way our bad-mouthed uncle had said. It's a long walk to victory.

Every human being should take a cue of the dancing governor. He fought hard, his mandate was stolen, I remember when a whole collation centre in a region where he won massively was set ablaze and that police spokeswoman was lying openly in public, that the bullet they fired to disperse thugs hit the generator and the fire from the gen burnt down the collation centre,.imagine grin. Many police would not make heaven. If you're a child of one of them reading this, preach to them to repent. You could also be affected by whatever befalls them if you don't talk to them.
Adeleke collected his mandate back with the support of those who believed he deserved to lead them. The battle predated his ambition as osun governor. I remember when his brother Isiaka Adeleke died and his constituency was shopping for his replacement. The APC under the administration of Aregbe played a smart one on the new governor who was then a bona fide member of the APC. Emilokan dissuaded Aregbe from picking gov adeleke to contest in the soon to be conducted by-election for the late isiaka Adeleke's replacement. They went and picked the candidate preferred by Emilokan. This man has been doing his dabaru politics, e don teeeey. He just pretended as if he knew nothing about the goings on in osun that time. Governor Adeleke now left the apc and contested for senate under the pdp and won. That was the beginning of his travails. A lot of people were even fingered in the death of Isiaka Adeleke because they've been speculating that he would contest for osun guber race and as the man of the people, he would win and unseat the apc in the state. So, he died in such a controversial manner. Someone who wasn't sick before his sudden death.

Governor Adeleke contested to run under the pdp as governor 4 years ago. He had led the apc with a slim margin. Instead of continuing the count, they declared the battle grounds results inconclusive so they stopped. They now went and formed a kangaroo alliance with Omisore. Omisore now collapsed structure and the rest was history. His sin was suddenly forgotten and he joined the apc after the victory. During the legal battle with the apc by gov Adeleke, they said he didn't go to school, he only had primary six result whereas, Oshiomohle of edo state was in his category when running for governor of Edo. This man was just a mere Labour leader with no sound educational background. He had a trade test certificate before he upgraded himself after becoming governor. All the paali he got became possible as governor cos moni don plenti to do many things. I was with same Oshiomohle at the USA embassy in 2005 in same hall when I went to renew my visa. He too came for same purpose, looking humble. Today, he's been upgraded and people suddenly forgot his past. That's even by the way.

Adeleke was charged to court on the account of forgery. They said he had only pry six result. All the emilokan agents mobbed him at court. Eventually he came out victorious and court ruled that, sec schl result wasn't a prerequisite to run as governor. His pry 6 cert was OK. This man didn't get discouraged. He went back to school in that 4 years to get the necessary certificates. He ran again and the people spoke at the polls, despite the 5k,10k and 20k they gave them to buy their conscience and life for another 4 years.

Urchins called this man all manners of names, as if he's not a yorubaman anymore. They said a dancer isn't fit to be governor. They even said in the history of osun state, no Christian had become governor, they used religous sentiments to finish this man...which urchins are still known for till today. But what happened? They've failed to realise the fact that, not even a traditionalist will be against you if you're loved naturally. Both Muslims,Christians and traditionalists voted adeleke in a state populated by Muslims. A Christian candidate defeated an incumbent Muslim candidate. Urchins are like dogs that bark. If you keep throwing stones at them, you'd miss your target in life and may not reach your destination eventually. Just ignore them and stay focused. They have nowhere to go. They prefer to suffer and smile till their old age. That's how they're formed.

The moral of my epistle...never view or profile a leader based on sentiments because the majority will still speak at the polls. Stop religous and ethnic bigotry cos it will never move our country forward. Go to the gulf region today, they welcome both Muslims and Christians. The largest number of visitors to UAE annually are non muslims. Now, Saudi Arabia is having a rethink. They've been Conservative for ages. They're now considering tourism and issuing visa to both Muslims and non muslims. UAE is a case study. Qatar too.

Nigeria is so much blessed. I've never seen such a blessed country on earth. Good weather, rich natural resources, vast population,, good and highly intelligent people. Everywhere i go whenever i speak, they don't ask if im Ghanaian or Togolese. The question they ask is, are you Nigerian? They'd nod their head after saying yes and am sure its same experience as others...we keep discovering oil every time gold is in ondo, osun and somewhere in Ekiti under ijero local government which people are still keeping secret. Ondo had the largest deposit of stock fish in Africa under a thousand years old pond. Bitumen nko? Nigeria ranks 2nd largest in bitumen in the world. Its in ondo state. Coal in enugu which was abandoned is what's still giving south Africa electricity till tomorrow. The only problem we have is leadership. Once we get it right, we'd become American nightmares cos they'd not sleep again. They know we have the potentials to be great. Its up to you and me. God bless Nigeria.

A Long walk to victory. Congrats, the dancing governor. E no get name wey urchins no call this man. Any politician who takes urchins seriously no ready to reach him destination. They're like dogs that bark. You don't listen to them, else you'd not get to your destination on time cos you'd be busy throwing stones at their dogs as they bark, till the plane takes off before you get to the airport. They're empty barrels. This is a lesson to everyone.

I'm lagosian, reset your brain. I'm not ibo. It's a fact you have to deal with. Even chief Bode George said same. Where's the money? Nibo lowo naa wa? Sofun wa. Even the next year's budget woukd be funded partially with loan. Our domestic and foreign debts are huge...the highest of all and there's a limit to what the state can borrow as it is. Only people like you would be jubilating over such a deceitful pronouncement
PoliticsRe: Lagos Moves Fast To Build $2.5 Billion 4th Mainland Bridge by Eriokanmi: 7:56am On Nov 29, 2022
Parachoko:
You're right about this. I hope the state govt is serious about constructing the bridge this time around.
Where would they get the money from? Do you know how much the lagos literail gulped? Do you know jakande started it? Till now, they're still on it. Even IBB that constructed the 3rd mainland bridge borrowed to do it. It took years to complete THE construction. As huge as the money was, we couldn't pay back in decades. Eventually, they had to write it off for us. How much is lagos IGR? By the time you convert those billions of naira IGR to usd, its a small amount and they can't concentrate it only on bridge and abandon staff salary and other recurrent expenditures. Despise the IGR received, they still borrow
Go and ask the fg how much the 2nd Niger bridge has gulped so far as short as it is...and they're still on it. They've started again as they did in 2015 , showing the gullible minds those projects in 3D. Sanwoolu is finishing his first term soon. What has he done so far? Thst will give you a clue.

4th mainland bridge won't start now. Its a political gimmick. Don't fall for it.

PoliticsRe: Alex Otti's Campaign Council Chairman, Nnanna Ngwu Is Dead by Eriokanmi: 11:18pm On Nov 28, 2022
Alex Otti needs to be extra careful. He stands a very good chance to unseat the pdp in the state. He also pools huge crowd . Recently I saw him in the midst of Abia industrialists, who endorsed him. He's always been giving pdp tough times in that state and this time seems to be his time. He's got lots of enemies around him. There are evil men in the Nigerian politics, those who can do anything to remain in office. Enough said.

I agree with you but sadly, judges won't look at the case this way if charged to court. People have stolen babies and used them for rituals. Obviously she was childless and needed someone to call her own. She didn't go to hospital and took the baby away from her mum's side. She took care of her like a mother would do. Had she died along the line or used her for rituals, would the biological parents have had her back?

TravelRe: Nigeria Issues Travel Advisory To Nigerians Going To US, Europe by Eriokanmi: 2:05pm On Nov 28, 2022
Realguyman1:
Most of this stealings happening in Europe especially pocket picking, luggages and bags snatching and passport thiefs are mostly been done by the Africans themselves.

And the Nigeria government needs to do proper investigation on the matter, because most of all this traveling agents do conspire with others to seize the passport of their clients.
You're right. My Blackberry android Key2 was stolen in CDG in 2017. I got to the airport late so I couldn't catch the last train going to town. I had to sleep somewhere close to the platform within the airport. I used my laptop bag as head rest while putting my phone beside my chest and slept off. By the time I woke up, I couldn't find it anymore. I approached the airport security who said they couldn't do anything about it. Okay, I asked them to play the cctv footage so we couid see what had happened while i was sleeping but they said they can't. Thank God my Samsung tablet was inside my luggage. I had to use the sim to communicate throughout my stay in Paris. It was a terrible experience for me. The airport security, a lady now spoke to me politely at a corner that, she's sorry for the experience, that...sadly, most of those stealing at the airport are afreicans. Once they steal, they don't wait. They jump inside the train and leave. Meanwhile, I forgot my phone inside dusseldorf airport in Germany sometime ago. The moment I remembered, I ran speedily to the place, thinking I was in Nigeria. On getting there, one man said they've been looking for me to collect my phone. He just showed me where I left it and I picked it up.

I doubt if it was the boy that impregnated her. They should ask the girl further
A 13-year old boy can impregnate any mature girl, provided all his organs are fully developed. I've seen a 9-year old girl with a full chest too. She entered JS1 at that age, looking huge and tall. Such can get pregnant easily. Mature teens don't have to menstruate regularly before getting pregnant and that's why most of them get pregnant when raped. Once their organs are developed , they can impregnate and also be impregnated
