Politics / Re: President Tinubu Celebrates MKO Abiola On His 25th Death Anniversary by fredylee: 5:39pm On Jul 07, 2023
nairalanda1:
IBB should have just handed over...but the Northern guys were threatening fire and brimstone, and Nigeria was in a scary place that 1993.

But honestly, I do not understand why Northern governors in 1993 were threatening fire and brimstone if MKO took over. At best he had 4 years to do his thing, and if he messed up, he got thrown out. 8 years even. But fire and brimstone, and then we got a 'Interim government' and then Abacha came and swept away everything in Nov 1993. Four years later, Abacha was essentially running a personality cult. (It got so bad that people were wearing Abacha badges, buying Abacha televsion and cooking with Abacha stove. And you best not talk out too loud against the man).

We got 5 more years of army rule because some people could not wait 8 years for their turn, and could not accept defeat and were stoking the spirit of 1966-70.

That's when I understood that Nigerians are not interested in development, but only in their side winning.

(I didn't expect MKO to do great...I just wanted us to have civilian government like all our African neighbours. Benin, Ghana, etc were having presidental elections, presidents getting sworn in, and here we were in Nigeria...)

Nobody threatened anything. IBB annuled the election out of his selfish desire to perpetuate himself in power. The point to be made is, IBB couldn't care less if MKO took over and got killed by any cabal. He was the real cabal, who was shell-shocked by Abiola's overwhelming victory at the polls, and imminent assumption of power.

Remember IBB had flimsily postponed the return to democracy countless times before that event?

Politics / Re: It’s Unbearable’ — APC Youth Group Asks Tinubu To Address Rising Cost Of Living by fredylee: 3:46pm On Jul 07, 2023
Racoon:
You expect a man with many criminal past including unknown genealogy, involved in identity theft/bullion vans criminality, forgery of certificates, well known election rigger, operator of the largest concentric ring of thugs and worst of all, indicted in a staggering $460, 000 heroin drug running forfeiture in 1993 @ Chicago USA to fight corruption?

You expect a Tinubu who hailed and praised a Gandollar publicly caught stuffing dollar bribe wads into his babanriga for fighting corruption? A man that won an election not based on anything but transparent to fight corruption? You must be the most stupid joker around

You are a prolific writer. In due time, you will be invited to do a book on Tifnubu.

Travel / Re: Nigerians In The UK Are Really Suffering by fredylee: 2:30am On Jul 07, 2023
adecz:


You earn comparatively better income
there, but you spend all the income on taxes,
tariffs and the comparatively higher cost
of living there...

Stalemate❗️❗️❗️

A friend in the UK needed her car checked.
She had to book an appointment with
her mechanic and paid a fee ( consultancy?)
of £150 ( roughly N150k).

On the appointed date, she went with
the car and after the maintenance, she
was charged £200 workmanship, making total of £350 or N450k ❗️❗️❗️😮😮😮

Almost half million for some basic check
and probably change of oil & filters, something
that will cost less than N30k in Nigeria.

Did you ask how much your friend earns comparatively? Your analysis is not adding up. What is consultancy in car maintenance, asides "workmanship" charges that you mentioned? Tell me another story.

Politics / Re: The Most Transparent Since 1999: Tinubu Rejects EU Report On 2023 Election by fredylee: 12:25am On Jul 03, 2023
Truthday:
Eu should face France that has burnt into ashes and Ukraine thats burning . You have enough problem to deal with in Europe. Leave Nigeria alone. Or do you need more slaves to kill ?

Same mad Europe that killed 7 million Jews

Same Europe that causes WW1 & ww2.

Same Europe that enslaved Africa and the world.

Same Europe that killed the entire archipelago in Australia from 100% to 3.6% and replaced them with Australia.

Same Europe that invaded Libya, with the highest GDP into civil war for over 10years till date

Same Europe that invaded north America Killin native American into extinction ad replaced them with USA.

Same Europe that caused arpathied in South Africa and want to kill all blacks if not people like Nelson Mandela

Same Europe that stole new Zealand and replaced them with whites.

Same Europe that's a cancer to the world invading dozens of nations. Nazis

If Nigeria continues on this path, the burning you will witness, will be nothing compared to the events you currently describe in Europe. Keep living in denial.

I see no difference in the two of them, Nigeria has been eternally cursed with bad and selfish leaders, and we have paid and still paying the price for this unfortunate decision.

That's absolutely incorrect. Atiku is a saint compared to Tinubu.

Yes, he's been said to be corrupt, but the other one has corruption as his smallest sin. He is covered in bile.

Tareq1105:


No election can ever be acceptable to all the over 300 tribes we have in Nigeria. That's always the situation with most heterogeneous country like ours especially those ruled by the British.

Recall 1993 general election. Very peaceful, free, fair, and transparent but our south east brothers were bitter about the outcome, just like now, bcoz their preferred candidate lost. Like joke like joke, an Igbo association (Associatiin of Bastard Nigerians) went to court and nullified the results with the support of then military leader Gen. Ibrahim Babangida.

Here they (Ibos) are again 30 yrs after crying for cancellation of the results and you expect Yorubas would stand akimbo watch them to repeat what their fathers did to us 30 yrs ago to be repeated?

The South East voted Abiola overwhelming. When were you born?

Geovanni412:



TInubu was never convicted

He is the Teflon don of Nigerian Politics

Like him or hate him, he is a very smart man

If they had enough evidence to jail him, they would.

You only bargain when there is not enough evidence to prosecute or to catch a bigger fish.

Example :
Karla Homolka, a serial killer involved in the rape and murder of her own sister, Tammy Homolka, plead guilty to manslaughter in Canada and was given only 12 yrs imprisonment in exchange for her giving detailed evidence of the crimes of her husband.

Her husband, Paul Bernardo was sentenced to life imprisonment.

Later on, it was discovered she had more involvement in the crimes but the rule is you can't convict someone twice. -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karla_Homolka


So, are you saying that Jagaban is guilty, but not convicted?

Journalism is a disaster in Nigeria and Africa at large. They do not follow the ethics and rules of their profession talkless of the law of the country where they practice .
Fake and unsubstantiated news is their hallmarks.
They should all rot in jail.
To hell with all journalists in Nigeria most especially the Arrogant Rufai Oseni and stupid Reuben Abatti of Arise news.
The jail is being prepared for all the journalists that work for Premium times, People gazette, Sahara reporters, Channel TV, and all Obi-diots of this world.
They have murdered sleep, no Obi-diots shall rest except in jail and hell.
Dati the complainant, Obi the adjudicator, Obi-diots the prosecutors shall all Labour in vain, as they protested in vain, campaigned in vain, promoted ING in vain, wept on National TV in vain, Wailling in vain, cursed and mocked The president elect in vain , criticised Buhari government in vain and in vain shall they loose again at the Tribunal and Supreme Court .

You will need to imprison every Nigerian. Nobody is celebrating your pyrrhic victory. The nation mourns.

I wonder where obi picked that man from. Completely tactless with words. I believe his problem is his lack of a good grasp of language. His speaking ability is very poor.

But then people like Oluomo should be arrested and prosecuted for incitement.

I can tell you that this lie was initiated from within the APC, in order to pressure and secure the assurance of the Presidency that Buhari would go, just like the one about Buhari not supporting Tinubu which led to him attending some of the campaigns towards the end of the season. We know the workings of the inner caucus of this "cult". A house divided against itself.
