My understanding so far.
Innoson banks with GTB, accesses their facility and incurred wrong bank charges to the tune of over 700 million Naira.
After back and forth with GTB, he wins his suit to the tune of 8 billion Naira.
GTB feeling embarrassed exposes his business malpractices and fraudulent shipping documents and reports to EFCC.
EFCC being an antigraft agency summons him and he was discharged. They summon him again, this time he fails to honour the invitation. They move in on him to arrest him in his Enugu residence. He resists arrest and engages them with his own force. They call for back up, and things spiralled out of control. His wife gets slapped, he gets arrested.
That said, how did this turn to an inter-tribal witch-hunting?
It's simply a GTB VS Innoson fight. Pls let's always get our facts right and not let sentiments make a mockery of our intelligence and education.

While I agree with you that this shouldn't have turn tribal, thanks to Nairalanders, I wish to let you know dude has given his own side of the supposed fraud case here - https://www.premiumtimesng.com/promoted/248936-innoson-vs-gtbank-no-application-issuance-bench-warrant-innocent-chukwuma.html

Sanchez01:
We need not attach every single mishap to politics and ethnicity. Though that part of the piece seems harsh but then again, it is just the truth. Innoson does not manufacture vehicles, he assembles them and brands them.

Premium Times had already reported the forgery part which the bank found out. It is NL only normal that the EFCC was involved after that.

Innoson and his wife played the tribal game almost perfectly and the likes of Ike Ekweremadu and Abaribe found every reason to lace the 'attack' as one affiliated to tribe.

I believe this would serve as an eye opener to banks. Most of these so called business men really have nothing and would not blink twice to make a show should an advantage rear its head.

Uchihaitaci:
Very astute and sound feedback.

can i pee on you i want to mark my terriotry and claim your brain for myself

greiboy:
show a single link where the court struck out the case.

Look at the link above!

I read what Innoson said about the whole thing, he never involved his tribe or painted a tribal picture so how the OP added the whole tribe thingy is what I am yet to find from Innoson's statement.

If anyone made it tribal, it is those who because of this recent ish tagged Igbos fraud and those who made GTBank look like a Yoruba bank ie Nairalanders.

paschal47:
I've always told people this guy is very smart.


We love you NwaAmaikpe
.

Marotzke:
No ,he is not from Edo state.
He probably grew up in Edo state or at best schooled at Auchi polytechnic(check his postings on the Otaru or Auch town).
So it is not suprising that he is well aquainted with the happenings in Okpella town.
NwaAmaikpe is definitely a journalist of the satirical bend ,who hides under the anonymity of the net to haul stones and dirt ,right left and centre.(wait until the Edaiken of Uselu catches you).
Being a part time journalist myself, i have be trying to unmask this Enigma called NwaAmaikpe.
There is a 70%match between NwaAmaikpe and lalasticlala.
NwaAmaikpe is an evolving name where the poster traces his origins through his user names.
1Nwamazi Aro.
2AroOkeigbo.
3NwaObinkita.
4NwaAmaikpe
5NwaChibuzor.
This is a journalist using his origins to coin usernames.
One handle controls them.
6Ubamedie is also a handle he uses for some incendiary postings about Edo state that he dosent't want ethnic blowback from.
So who is this satirist that have people enthralled and a moderator in NAIRALAND?
I have narrowed my search to just two brillant guys that fit the bill.
NwaAmaikpe is between 45 to 50 years old.
A seasoned journalist with a high pedigree.
Had his higher education in either Auchipoly, Ekpoma or Uniben.
Most likely Auchi.
Graduated around 1992.
Successful professional.

Well, I came to a conclusion that NwaAmaikpe is someone who is definitely well travelled, prolly someone vast in the supply chain business especially within the South and studied in Edo state, lived part of his life there before moving to another place but one thing is sure, he is a South Easterner and intelligent; forget the numerous hilarious, dumb and witty replies he writes here. He's an intelligent troll. . . he's an enigma. . .

I read the first two comments there, I said they must be Nairalanders. . .

Same way guys here would reply stories like that. . .

Summoning HyDef and Taiocol!

akashi01:
This thread still alive?

Is your name taken after a character from a basketball anime?

SmooshCHN:

Was that taken with a prime lens?

These girls, are they friends or aspiring models?

I tried street photography with a proper DSLR - a canon 550D; honestly, it was not easy as you tend to meet hostile persons. Nice shots!!!

castrol180:
It is surprising that the man that unseated you and your boss (Shagari, a fulani extract) in 1983 is in power now as the GCFR and commander in chief of the armed forces. He paid from the tax payers dough, fee for your treatment itinerary...

In short RIP to you and happy birthday to Sai baba, baba till 2023

-my own eulogy to sir Ekwueme

What sort of fuckery is this? Paid what? Why not just type RIP and let people mourn him rather than dragging NLers into a political battle about a political icon? Wanting to play politics with his death.

Femu, when was the invitation shared? Na after event don finish you con dey tell us bah?

Anyway, please, many people should not eat pork so that it will still be cheap and we can buy more for we pork lovers.

Introduced my siblings to pork and since then, it's been their favorite.

Been hearing of it. I prolly should wait till it is complete.

Kaycee7:
Just finished the 2nd season of Boku No Hero Academia. Can't wait for season 3.
Next up
Black Clover
Fate Zero

Yeah! Also waiting for season 3. Waiting for Black Clover to go far before watching. How good is fate zero?

Gmajor:
Currently watching death note. The anime is a million times better than the movie.

I agree and most anime fans the world over also do.

9jakohai, any mecha anime you can recommend?

Erm. . .who here watches Hajimete no gal?

kay9:
Mmmmm. It's a tough call, but let's see...

If Naruto lives long before passing on, the odds are Shikamaru and Sasuke would be too old or dead as well - Kakashi certainly will be long gone - which leaves Konohamaru as the best option... unless Sarada grows fast and goes full-blown genius like her dad, in which case council would have to choose between her and her sensei.

If Naruto departs early though, then they'd have to pull a "Tsunade" on Sasuke. A kage needs wisdom, insight and intelligence, but the power to protect and defend is most critical; this makes Sasuke the prime option. Shikamaru knows this, and Kakashi will likely decline on this ground if asked. No need to do a "Hiruzen" when there's an even better option available.

Aptly said! You just captured my thoughts.

Shikamaru will definitely not become one as he sees it as a drag and the fact that he is 'lazy'.

OP, Konohamaru is the best option. . .forget the fact that he is a bit loud.

Charpell:
When Minato died, the 3rd hokage resumed the hokage title. You can't rule kakashi out beside he is still young.

konohamaru is only 3 or 4 years younger than Naruto

Kakashi is old. He is no longer young.

CallmeKola:
Richest in both universes combined is actually Black Panther.
But between Tony and Bruce, Tony is richer regardless of their different universes.

Of course, we know he is the richest, thanks to vibranium.

OP, Tony Stark is richer in terms of individual worth with about $3B but in terms of revenue, Wayne Enterprise has a higher turnout than Stark Industries.

LRNZH:
2nd Hand Trains....see as GEJ will be booted out now.

DaBullIT:
I pray say make this level enter FP, na im go make sense

Some mumu wan talk dem say he use big money do train, i bin dey clear them say all those trains na refurbished, and as he take be , if person wan chop frog , na frog wey carry eggses for belle person suppose chop , if them wan do new train, although he go cost, na foundation for latest train dem suppose lay , at least cable bus or 2007 model of bullet train, no suppose be 1944 train wey dem no dey even use for india again

Habaaaaa , Them dey form say all na new, but those trains wey dem dey launch for ABJ , KD and ko even craze man for Southie no go enter am, dem don suffer us sotay this fake fake things dey shack some people for Naija ..


Oh, updated today 13th March at 8;23 , The BASTARD Okupe and his buddies finally Confessed that the trains are not new

What changed?

HAH:
If you have been on this train from abuja to kaduna you will appreciate it, to me it is better than the ones I used between London and Manchester.

The train are probably going to abuja for the kaduna route as the minister promised more coaches, no one that used that train that is not impressed, the train has a speed of 160 but actual used is between 100-120

Reference:
OP, 160 kph is not high speed in the world of trains but as a fan of rail transport am excited Nigeria is showing sustained interest in this direction and commend the government for backing this up with concrete steps.

We donot need to start with high speed trains and we donot need to start with passenger traffic. The government should invest more into cargo traffic where the problem lies and where the money is to further expand investment.

It breaks my heart to see what we transport cross cou try on our roads, cargoes that are not worth the roads they pass on. Roads are built primarily to be 'soft' for comfort travel and to to ease the wear on tyres. They have load limits and when this is exceeded the normally elastic bituminous infusion gives way. Rail lines on the other hand are made from high strength corrosion resistant alloyed steel which is near indestructible. The load limits are tens of times more than roads and maintenance is just a fraction of the cost. So when we use our highways to haul such heavy loads as cement, stones, steel products and such worth less cargoes as farm produce we are eroding the resources with which to expamd and deepen our infrastructure foot print. Not surprising that we have not launched or comissioned any major, meaningful piece of transportation infrastructure in the last decade and a half. We are just battling to maintain the ones we have and losing that battle.

If the government can provide a carrot in reliable cross country rail services and a stick in heavy tolling of articulated vehicles on the highway we can save huge amounts off our annual budget. The roads will be safer, last longer and enable us to focus on building newer, more efficient ones.

Thus is what investors both local and foreign look out for, cost and efficiency of transport. Rail transport is known world wide to be the safest, cheapest and most reliable. When government has satisfied commerce and industry it can then focus on passenger transport. As a matter of fact this is best done by states which should invest in city to city linkages where the bulk of traffic resides. There are a lot more people travelling from parts of Ogun or Oyo to Lagos or Rivers to Abia or Anambra to Imo or Kano to Kaduna than there are folks travelling from say Kano to Lagos or Abuja to Portharcourt. States can do even more in this regards.

mmsen:
Outside of Europe how many countries use TGV?

Does Nigeria need to pay that premium now? Why not build up a viable network and then go from there?

In the same way that you wouldn't buy your daughter a Rolls Royce as a first vehicle it doesn't make sense for Nigeria to buy TGVs.

Hi there! I frankly do not have a problem with the trains being brought here as I believe we should start from somewhere before using MAGLEV and its likes (since we lack electricity to power the machine and the lack of maintenance culture) and then convert these ones in the thread to maybe cargo trains as long as the funds are there. What I cannot stand is the hypocrisy of certain APC stalwarts who previously criticized the choice of trains brought by the previous administration and termed it obsolete. I clicked on this thread, hopeful that they are actually high speed trains as promised when many supporters flooded the net with pictures of PMB inspecting high speed trains from Japan. Talk about deceiving the populace with false information.

A certain guy called LRNZH said when I once suggested to him that we should make do of these ones in Nigeria and when the use is high and as we bring in more, then we can start with the purchase of HS trains - "We have no business using outdated technologies when the world is seriously moving forward. Do you because we do not produce cars and phones, buy old modelled cars?" to paraphrase.

Guys that can cook are always too difficult to satisfy generally and they are usually picky as far as food is concerned

Sadly, this is me! I am very picky when it comes to food. Other times if I eat outside, I'll be like "I can cook better than this!"

I hope to stop.

Man! I had to clap after reading! His handler did a good job here.

Gradually, this guy is warming his way into many persons' hearts.

BTW, is it because OBJ tagged him a corrupt person that we believe him to be? If you mention Harliburton, other persons including OBJ himself was indicted so what makes OBJ different from him? Someone enlighten me please.

How far?

Where went you since?

This is a new low in govt lies , even previous govt never attempted this winter lie because the had more respect for us ..this lie is further proof that the govt of Buhari jas no respect for our collective intelligence as a people

Honestly, you wonder how low they can get and everyday, they keep proving they can break their dumb record. LAWD!!! This is DUMB!!!! DUMBER than DUMB!!!!

Homeboiy:
When them dey shout sai baba



It is a continuous process

Please, let us not make this a Sai Baba thing. Those are kids who can barely think and fend for themselves.

Topic, we are inherently WICKED in this country. To think those tasked with protecting them are the predators of these same people in IDPs. Later on, they condemn Libya not knowing worse is happening in the country, not even being done by BH, but by the security forces of the country.

But an Army Special Board of Inquiry said in June that allegations against its soldiers at the camps were unfounded, while Jimoh Moshood, a police spokesman, said the investigations were continuing.

This is one reason why I hate the NA and the NPF. For all they have been caught doing, they'll always wave it off as 'unfounded or baseless'. There is never a time they'd admit to the truth even when there are numerous evidences. Same happened when they were in Liberia.

Finally, what were Nigerian media houses doing while this investigation was carried out by foreign reporters?

Bigii, that's a porcupine, not a hedgehog.

I've always wondered who came up with the name 'idiot' for it because growing up, I thought the same thing too till I was able to sieve information myself.

Once caught one and set it free the next day as I was so curious and excited at holding one, being my first time seeing it that I kept it with me for the night, dropped some roots for it to feed on too.

It's harmless as long as it ain't threatened.

Rozaytee:
@ op am still shocked on how u picked dat thing

hanassholesolo:
I just weak. How person take pick something covered in spike just dey baffle me.

Coldfeets:
Hmm...

You mean you picked it with your bare hands or what?

Guy you're very lucky o!

That thing can deploy all those thorn on it's body into its victim if it feels threatened.

Edit: This one Ishilove put picture of the difference between hedgehog and porcupine, I con confuse more.

The problem is not with DC and their creative teams but with Warner Brothers, who owns DC. They interfere too much with the movies unlike the cartoons. They put too much restrictions to the stories and acting.
The reason Marvel is succeeding is that they own the studio, the storeies, everything. They don't have restrictions from anyone, so no limitations to how far they can take their creativities in movies.
Take for example the Antman movie, if it were to be DC, Warner Brothers will never allow them to make a movie about a character that is little known in the comics. But Marvel made the movie and it was highly successful.

No wonder. . .just like they cut many scenes in Harry Potter.

repogirl:
Marvel all the way..... DC tried with Wonder woman but Marvel movies are so on point...except Spiderman: Home coming which was just there IMO.

I haven't seen the new JL movie yet but rushed to see THOR: Ragnarok same week it was released, and ofcourse, it didn't disappoint!

Eagerly awaiting Black Panther and Infinity war!

Aha!!! Black Panther! One of my favourite in the Marvel world. I really can't wait too.

Tozara:

Rule #1: never make Superman very angry
Rule #2: Superman gets very angry when you knockout Batman

Here’s Superman knocking off Darkseid (the most evil genius and top 5 most powerful villain in DC universe! One on one, no Justice League member can beat Darkseid, except Superman. Darkseid beats even WonderWoman like a baby real quick. The only villain in Marvel universe that can possibly beat Darkseid are the likes of Galactus maybe. Even Braniac in DC was outsmarted by Darkseid. Superman is just the greatest anywhere.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cG4BNJBXBU

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmTg7ROPssc

He was the first even to survive Darkseid's omega beam and also defeated Braniac (second to Jor El I think).

Apollux:
Lol, the story of who would win in a fight between Batman and Superman always generate lots of heated arguments internationally between the numerous fans of both heroes. But objectively it's clear there is no way Batman can beat Superman, no matter the tech or weapons employed.
For the BvS movie, Batman winning that fight was one of rhe major draw back of that movie. The fault actually falls on the interference from Warner Brothers as always on all DC movies. They wanted Batman to win because he has greater fan base, so it was all about making money. But the story was poorly written.
You should have noticed that the cartoon version story was much better than the movie, same with all DC stories. Look at Green Lantern first flight cartoon, the story was much better than the movie, Same with Wonder Woman, the cartoon and the movie.
DC has great stories and caetoons but movie wise they continue to floop.
If DC will make it in the movies, they have to take the part Marvel is taking and stop the interference from Warner Brothers

Thank you sir! I was not ready for this long argument so i just wrote the least I could. After watching the movie, I was pissed because that wasn't what I have read about. Why add Doomsday, parademons, WW and Lex all in one particular movie? Even the doomsday was not like the normal one we have always known.

BruncleZuma:
The list is long and those were the ones I could write without suffering a burnout

Then imagine the ones they are still developing!!!

Frankly, I do not even know why DC made a series of their many franchise - Superman (Smallville), Flash, Arrow etc. . . To me, it made it so common and lose that appeal it had unlike Capt. America, Ironman, Hulk etc.

sontoly:
storylines??, what do u mean by that??, r u talking of comics or big screen movies??, cos marvel has gotten there storyline figured out since, DC just rushed and combined justice league.

In terms of comics and cartoons, DC has better storylines. Try watching a Marvel cartoon (GOTG, Avengers), you'll puke. I mean, even racoon used a cellotape to blindfold almighty Thanos!!!!

I have always enjoyed Marvel's Spiderman cos it seem to make sense both in cartoon and movie.

What argument next? Those who can lift Thor's Mjolnir and those who cannot?

bkool7:
Sorry about that. i just checked

They had like 5 years ahead of Marvel.

But back in the days Marvel just seems to have richer content and larger followers than DC.
Thats what gave me the impression

To Marvel's credit, I think Spiderman is one of their original character without imitation. The main reason why I think DC lost many followers is due to their movies and the fact that many complained that one of their main franchise - Superman - is overpowered.

bkool7:
Marvel existed before DC. Iremember way back in the early 90s when i used to buy comic books. It was very hard to get a Marvel comic those days because it was hot on the stand, while DC was everywhere.
Marvel has more popular superheroes. The only popular ones in DC are Superman, Batman and Wonderwoman.

I think DC has closed the gap between them now.
Cos they were no competition in the 90s

Are you sure Marvel existed before DC? Check well bros!!! Many characters in Maevel have an equivalent in DC. Heck, they kinda imitated DC...

Leopantro:
Bros, Hulk will kill Superman. period. we just finished an argument last week about this. Doomsday kill Superman but Hulk beat Doomsday. i even watched a one hour video where HULK vs Doomsday fight was analyzed to death and Doomsday won.
i agree DC own the characters but Marvel is winning in regards to the Movies.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8a8UJnk2HY

I was expecting this argument. It's been argued here previously by people like iice and facts pasted.

Search for the canons and read. No matter the version of Hulk, he can't defeat other versions of Superman. Hulk is NOT and has NEVER been on par with Superman!!!

OP, Marvel wins in terms of movies (love their character developments and how each connects) but when it comes to comics and cartoons, DC always has better storylines. DC equally has better superheroes compared to MCU.

BruncleZuma:


No difference, they've been copying each other since 1939.

Flash - Quicksilver
Martian - Manhunter
Antman - Atom
Thanos - Darkseid
Dr Fate - Dr Strange
Banshee - Silver Banshee
Booster Gold - Long Shot
Hawkman - Angel
Clayface - Sandman
Moon Knight - Dark Knight
The list is long so dere gawa zie

Exactly. You also forgot Batman - Ironman
Deathstroke - Deadpool
