These northerners don't know anything. To them, everything is power and more power. All bank headquarters are in Lagos.70% of banking activities in Nigeria are done in Lagos. Cbn staff go to Lagos for inspection and at times spend 2 months there and would be lodged in the hotel and they will also collect out of station allowance which is waste. Being in Lagos will give them more time to monitor these banks very well..From the loan they disburse to form M they approve and cbn running cost will reduce.
Botragelad: How can the navy destroy 15,775 litres of crude oil without causing a massive environmental disaster? That's a lot of oil to just dump into the sea or burn off. Surely, they would have to find a way to safely dispose of it or return it to the rightful owners.
How can they estimate the value of the products to be N13,251,000? That's a very precise number for something that depends on the market price and the quality of the oil. How did they measure the quantity and the grade of the oil? Did they have a lab on board or did they just guess?
According to them, the wooden boat was intercepted about 12 nautical miles off the coast when they also say that the base will intensify surveillance within the axis? That's a huge distance to cover with a wooden boat. How did they track and intercept it? Did they have a radar or a satellite or did they just spot it with their eyes?
They claim the base is committed to stamp out the menace of COT and other crimes when they also say that they received intel on illegal bunkering within the axis? That means they already knew that there was a problem and they didn't do anything about it until now. How effective is their surveillance and intelligence?
This statement is a load of rubbish that doesn't add up. It sounds like the navy is trying to cover up their incompetence or corruption by making up a story that doesn't match the facts.
Exactly.... Same thing happened to me and I regretted voting Peter obi
After he lost, they started insulting all Yorubas and when we talk, they forget they we were chanting obidents together and quickly isolate me all bcox I'm Yoruba.. I felt so bad, many yorubas like me campaigned for obi but when he lost, dey reject us and say shebi our brother don win.
Reno is saying the truth. You can't be a good Muslim without believing in Jesus. There is a whole chapter name after Maryam in the holy Quran. However in Islam Jesus is believe as the prophet and Messenger of God.
Truthday: It is somewhat surprising that Nigerian Christians, and even a newspaper like Punch, are surprised that there is a mosque named after Mary, the mother of Christ, in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.
Those asking Nigerian Muslims to learn from Dubai, are actually the ones who should learn from Nigerian Muslims. They are relatively ignorant of Islam.
The most Islamic state in Nigeria is Sokoto. And one of the most common names in that seat of the Islamic Caliphate is actually the name of Christ. Isa is not a Hausa name. Isa, or Yisa, or Issa, is the Arabic version of Yeshua in Hebrew and Jesus in Greek.
So revered is the name in Sokoto that a Local Government Area is named after Him-Isa Local Government Area, Sokoto.
As a matter of fact, you cannot be a true Muslim if you do not believe that God sent Christ.
When prophet Muhammad, Salla Allahu alayhi Wasalaam, had his first revelation of the Quran, he went with his wife, Khadijah, to consult a man named Waraqah ibn Nawfal. Waraqah was a monotheistic Christian, who revered Maryam (Mary).
When the Quraysh wanted to kill prophet Muhammad (SAW) and the first Muslims, the Muslims escaped to the Christian nation of Ethiopia, where they were protected by the Negus, which was the first hijrah before the hijrah to Medina.
Christ is mentioned by name in the Quran more times than anybody except prophet Muhammad (SAW), and his mother, Maryam, of whom the Dubai mosque is named, is the only woman mentioned BY NAME in the Quran. (Other women were mentioned but not by name).
So, if Al-Quran mentions Maryam, why is it surprising that a mosque is adorned with her name?
Christ Himself is described in the Quran as Al-Masihu Isa (Yeshua The Messiah) in Quran 4.157, 4.171.
So, it is only people unfamiliar with Islam in general, and with Islam as practiced in Nigeria, that will marvel at the Dubai mosque named after Maryam (Mary).
How can you ask Nigerian Muslims, who named a whole Local Government after Yeshua (Jesus), to learn from Dubai, because they named a mosque after Maryam (Mary). Who should learn tolerance from who?
lifezone247: Yes, yes and yes. AC has nothing to do with fuel consumptions. It’s uses gas when the engine is running. Make una stop that mentality abeg.
The one doubtful on this list is pyramid. It doesn't disappeared in 3 days rather allocated to rice millers to purchase. It took us longer that expected to finish avacuation
SalamRushdie: Buhari govt must not be allowed to implement subsidy removal , they want to stockpiles at subsidy cost and sell to Nigerians at 700 naira ...Buhari govt should just go
What can you say about Atiku, Okowa and Tambuwa recorded conversation?
lhordspy: Maybe we should leave political sentiment asides. We all know Peter Obi made some extreme religious political moves during the presidential campaign period by manipulating, exploiting and exploring our religious diversity to his own advantage. But the thing is no matter how interesting the latest finding is and no matter how fulfilling it is for we the progressives. I think it is time we start asking questions about the supposedly 'exclusive-findings' of gazetteNGR of recent. With this latest one clearly violating the section 37 of the 1999 constitution of the Federal Republic of N8geria which state that:
''The privacy of citizens, their homes, correspondence, telephone conversations and telegraphic communications is hereby guaranteed and protected.''
Even though i dont know how these things work entirely. But i have seen some crime movies (for example: TheWire, Sopranos, Power etc) where even the law enforcement agents/agency will have to acquire something like a court-warrant or court permission with enough reasons; a very convincing motives, to be able to secretly wiretap phonecalls of a criminal or any other person during investigation. You have to convince a judge to the fullest before the warrant or permission is granted. Failure to secure the warrant and going ahead to carry out the action make it illegal, a crime with serious consequences which also render the voice-conversation gotten from such unauthorised secret-wiretap inadmissible in court as an evidence.
I think the labour party camp should drag gazetteNGR to court and whoever published that voice conversation should be made to testify as to the real source of the wiretap under oath. Somebody need to start paying for these illegal acts carried out all in the name of investigative journalism. We cant keep operating as a lawless country.
Today it is Peter Obi, it can be anyone tomorrow. I don't even feel safe making phonecalls anymore.
Firstly, Shagari won this same election in 1983 Exactly something like this. 12 states out of 19. Secondly, even if a runoff is declared, Obi isn't the runner up. That's my fear. Rerun would be between Atiku and Tinubu.
We told the APC that they do not have a candidate but they kept arguing, beyond the drug related crimes for which he has been convicted, the APC candidate does not have the mental stability required to run a complex nation like ours.
Voting an APC government into power will completely ruin this nation and no patriotic Nigerian should allow it to happen.
We appreciate Sen. Bola Ahamed Tinubu for saying God Bless PDP but he can also extend it by saying God Bless Atiku Abubakar Nigeria's next President who is coming rescue Nigerians from the hopelessness they have been plunged into by the APC.
PDP and Atiku Abubakar remains Nigeria's only hope and together we can get it done!
9jahotblog: The Northern Elders Forum spokesperson Hakeem Baba-Ahmed who coincidentally is the elder brother of the Labour Party Vice Presidential candidate asked Atiku Abubakar the question below verbatim.
"Your Excellency, Northerners are watching you now, in the next few days they will hear or they will see you. Please tell the Northerners why out of all the Presidential candidates they should trust you not anybody else with their votes and their trust and why you are the best candidate that can lead Nigeria and the North through changes. Please speak to the Northerners directly."
That was the question from the Northern elders Forum spokesperson. Remember they organised the event and as such asked the question to know Atiku's plan for the North.
Atiku Abubakar in his smartness answered the above question below, verbatim:
"Well, Mallam Northerner, ohh Madam Northerner(he smiled), I have been in politics now for three decades, (Prof. Ango was whispering something and Atiku picked his statement) for 35 years and I have traversed the whole of this country, I know the whole of this country, I have built bridges across this country. I think what the average Northerner needs is somebody who is from the North and also understands other parts of Nigeria and who has been able to build bridges across the rest of the country. This is what the Northerner needs. He doesn't need a yoruba candidate or an Igbo candidate, this what the Northerner needs. So I believe, I stand before you as a Pan Nigerian of Northern origin. Thank you very much."
Atiku Abubakar in the above clearly reminded the Northern elders that he is although a Northerner but not a candidate of the North because he has built bridges in every part of Nigeria.
Atiku Abubakar reminded the North that his candidature is not just for the North but for Nigeria as a whole!
�������
Children of hate has failed in totality, they shall perish in their hate.... Atiku is coming, no lies, propagandas, stones can stop him.... #AtikuOkowaPDP ✅✅✅
This man is not serious at all. You're starting something at the end of your tenure; you're yet to apply for license but you start coming out public to achieve cheap political point.
On a serious note, is high time our constitution is amended to accomodate state police.

I can't wait to see this happen! 2023 will be very interesting contest, atleast, all the mojor ethnicity group will represented in the contest. This time around, I won't for my own but for a distant ally. That's the secrifice I can give to see if Nigeria can ever work again! With Kwankwaso as a running mate, the north is well repsented, Senate president can go to South West.
[quote author=iLegenddNoReply post=112306104]Let's assume 2,290 Naira is equivalent to Dollar at the time. If so, that means 2,290 Naira equals $2,290.
Using today's exchange rate of 594/$, that means 2290 * 594 = 1,360,260. Approximately 1.4 million Naira of today. With 1.3, you can buy a car today — even if it's tokunbo.
So, it's wise to make your money in Dollar and convert to Naira. With this, you won't feel the difference that much.[/quote
Almost on point but that time 1N=$2 So N2290 = $4,580
Odidigboigbo: Whether NAS delete it or not, that section of the electoral act cannot stand, it's at variance with the constitution. The constitution is clear on this matter, any act or law that is not in concurrent with the constitution, the constitution takes precedence. The constitution says governments appointees should resigned a month before the election, If NAS is serious, they supposed to have amends this section of the constitution before inputting it in the electoral act.
AltMon2: An angry mob this evening attacked Orji Police station in imo state Nigeria.
In a video obtained by Afrolic, the angry men were seen destroying the station as they carted away arms and other properties, sharing them amongst themselves.
ZeroAccess: They call us lazy youths, that all we know how to do best is focus our energy on BBN. Now the monsters are out on the street and no more twitter cry.
On a lighter note, are you sure is just end sars naija is calling for. Cos the ig already ended that shit, at least on paper. Naija abeg speak up on other issues.
bros from day 1 this is not about end SARS, it is about frustration with the system.
Everything he said here makes sense to me. We didn't choose the best of us from north so we'll continue to suffer insults from his bad precedence. The worst part of it is that the living condition of the average northerner has worsened. This is not the change we voted for.
I'm not from Kwara, I love how the Saraki dynasty was dismantled, I'm pro APC but these photos aren't doing justice to a supposed 300 million dollar project.
Heck nothing suggests even 300 million Naira has been spent.
