Never knew the end time slang could return back to Nairaland

I remembered that time when the moderators are ready to deal with anyone they heard end time things from

Nairaland was fun back then




END TIME PASTOR

Lmao! No be small thing! How about out garri activists? It's just a matter of time before they return from exile

Long expected, there was no way we would have given PDP a chance again in that state, we only had an effigy as a governor in that state for the past 4 years, in fact the past 16yrs of pdp was a disaster in kogi and if APC won't perform better, then we give kowa a chance shikena. Things must change & power must rotate, it's not any tribe's birthright...

Funny how you guys quickly quote that PDP misruled Nigeria for 16 years. If I may ask who were running things back then. The Abubakar Audu that APC presented did he come from the moon? Didn't he contribute to the so called 16 years of misrule? See ehn, our problem is not "a party" but the people that constitute the parties. The last time I checked 80% of the people that left PDP is now in the APC. Congratulations to Yahaya Bello anyway. Don't know why APC didn't field him in the first instance.

dockokwus:
I never said he is a pdp member, but that the paper has done a total turnaround and doesnt adhere to basic tenets of journalism again.Go thru their online stories and their partisanship wud be so glaring.

A lot of school boys view on Nairaland is affecting my interest. Why do we always attribute conspiracy once we dot not like a decision?. I just tire, must APC take a decision that is against the electoral act, just to satisfy Falake. The courts have established in various cases, that for any one to be declared Gov he must have gone through primaries. Falake did not go through APC or PDP or KOWA primaries and since Audu was not declared outright as winner by Inec, Falake cannot be sworn in. Now, the argument that the of 41000 is more than 25000 or so pvc in the cancelled hence Falake should ve been declared winner, though sweet to the ear, cannot be the right and legal thing to do.
Our electoral Act does not recognise PVC or the number of voters with PVC, what it does recognise is THE NUMBER OF REGISTERED VOTERS which in this instance is 49000, more than 41000. Falake i believe is aware of this legal limitations.
I don't like Bello, i don't know him, i just believe he will reap from wear he did not sow viz the accusation he played anti party. But one thing is sure in both the Bible and Quoran, it is GOD that gives power, he may ve decided to favour Bello by ticking for him the whole legal reasons, Falake won't win this case in court, in the court of public opinion and sentiment yes! He will win, unfortunate our courts will rely on the constitution, Electoral Act and decided cases to draw up their decision. Falake should rein in his supporters, probably nominate his proffered deputy to Bello, become a top party stalwart in Kogi, in 2019 go to the senate, allow Bello run his two terms, who knows with the support of stake holders it may be his turn in 2023 in a new power rotation agreement. Just my take, i am not from kogi

Wow! And you sidelined the electorates totally in your write up. What if this Bello of a guy is not the people's choice? You see, this whole thing is smeared with injustice not just to Audu/Faleke ticket but also the people. Their mandate is about to b stolen from them!

Abayhormy:
Can't The Yoruba part of Kogi State produce governor in Kogi State ??

Are They Not bonafide Indegenes of the state ??!

Are they just in the state as secound class indegenes ??

Are the Ebiras where Yahaya Bello hails from more entitled to the seat that the Okun/Yorubas in the state ?

Whats the political hope of the Yorubas in the so called confluence state ?!

Yorubas in Kogi and kwara Should Wake up !

We are tired of being in the North Central, if we are going to be forever marginalized, Carve us to the South west where we truly belong! Enough of using us to swell up the population and geopolitical size of the NORTH! We are not Northerners

There are A Lot of Fault lines in this country, and only a TRUE REFERENDUM can solve the problems, ans imminent danger

Plus, Must All the so Called "19 Northern states be governed by Muslims ?!"

Kikikikikiki! So this thing dey pain afterall? I no know o!

Sia Sia will just stand there and be looking. He can't even protest

This our defense no be am o! It's just a matter of time before calamity befalls them if they don't get their acts together

naso2:
was it an erroneous call by the ref?

Yes, from my point of view cause that ball looks like it hit that Defenders thigh rather than his hand

So sorry for Egypt but the second penalty was worth it

Dimgba is really doing great! Though I feel sorry for Egypt for that unfortunate call by the ref

Abeg match don start o! Whoever put 10pm on the front page sef?

Kennydoc:
Did you see the first paragraph of the post:


My guy, don't forget that we're in Nigeria. Which authorities are you talking about? So you want FRSC officials to be stationed at every 500m distance of all the roads in Nigeria? Please be realistic! Again, do you know the time of the day it happened? Is it within the job specifications of FRSC officials to be stationed on all the roads 24 hours of the day?
Speed limit is out of it cos it was along the express, if the op truly knows what expressway is, except he meant dual carriage way.

See, this whole thing boils down to wisdom on the part of the drivers. Speed limit or not, common sense tells you that as a driver, you have to slow down when you start approaching busy segments of any road.
Many states that are less developed than Lagos don't even have very good roads, not to talk of speed limits on their roads or FRSC officials, yet we don't so much hear of falling trucks.
Now what do you say about trailers flying unto the rails of bridges? Is that FRSC officials problems too?

Please what is an express way? Where people drive the way they like? You can't fault the driver where there is no known law he has broken. Express way or not their should be a speed limit and warning signs.
Secondly, when you make a law, there should be people to enforce that law. I'm not saying FRSC officials should be stationed at every 50metres (I wonder where you got that from) but their presence should be effectively felt more often. Truth is, if the authorities are up and doing there duties the way they should, all this issues would have been cut down by 98%

Mali outplayed us in the second half

Pabodan:
Hmmmm, LVG's philosophy comes to mind.....

Sorry, I'm not a United fan

Kennydoc:
I'm listening

OK good, now let's disect the scenario and see what we can find.
Why I blamed the authorities can be found in these questions: is there a speed limit for that road? An if there is, is there a sign clearly stating it? Are there adequate traffic signs, road markings etc? Where are our FRSC officials in a day like that? Is there even a law guiding the usage of that road? If there is, who is enforcing it?
You see? I can go on and on and if you sincerely look at these questions, you'd see that our authorities are really lacking. The report said the trailer was speeding, why won't it "when" there is no set speed limit it exceeded.

Icon4s:
Mali doing which playing? Is it all those aimless possessions? Nigeria is playing better.

I concur. Just knocking the ball around with no purpose doesn't cut it for me.

Kennydoc:
Authorities? Why? From the pictures we've been seeing, most of them happen on good roads without pot holes. Check out the road in that picture. Now, what do you say about those that climb and almost fall off overhead bridges? Still the authorities' fault?

Yes. And if you want I will elaborate what I mean by that.

fromnigeria:
[s][/s]
thats how you'll put food on fire, carelessly let it burn and come here to blame authority. Na wa for human beans.

First ask me how I reached my conclusion before striking out my comments.

These Malians fine sha

Kennydoc:
Why was the driver on high speed, especially knowing that he was driving a big vehicle, and was driving within a busy area? Majority of these trailer accidents are caused by the drivers. Many of them drink and smoke, and thus lose their sense of reasoning and calculation on the wheels.
May God save His people.

Believe me, the driver is the last person you want to hold accountable for this. Is this the only trailer that has falling this month? Can you beat your chest and say that all the ones that has fallen so far was also caused by a drunk driver? I hold the authorities accountable for all these trailers that has been falling since God-knows-when on our roads

Horlawoomey:
It's high time these large vehicles are provided with their separate lanes. I can't imaging this kind of accident happening on a Monday morning.

Alhamdulilah that no life was lost.

May God continue to safe our shuttles.

Oga Seun, before I close this page I want to see my credit alert or else we go enter same trouser.

Providing a separate Lane will just be treating the surface cause of this problem. It will continue to re-occur until those in charge rise up and do the right thing. Anytime we take care of problems on the surface, it just last for a short while until another one occurs. All these trailers that has been falling since what has FRSC, VIO and their likes done? Boboye and the VIO has some big questions to answer

And what about the men that patronized them? Nigeria police sef

I thought Patience has gone back to Okirika, why seeking her again? Shebi una say una no want her before

efilefun:
There's nothing new in it, if they summon him, he will send his minister of states just like GEJ sent Diezani when he was summoned. Yar adua and OBJ did the same

Gawd!!! You guys are pathetic! Do you not care that we suffer? I'm outta here mehn!

Toosure70:
We voted for party not Audu.

Story for the gods. Make they just pronounce Wada winner already.
*takes to my heels*

Thank God for their safety but I don't understand Siasia with his indiscipline story. Someone should help me understand biko. Is it that he rejected their request but they went anyways or what? I'm confused cause according to the report he granted their request why say they were indisciplined again?

thegoodjoehunt3:
Is the win a historic event yes or no. What is your point? Ghana made three consecutive finals in '93, '95, '97. Do you think an African side could not have done it before us?

I just asked an innocent question if any other African country have won the cup except Nigeria and Ghana

thegoodjoehunt3:
Sorry. Thanks for the correction. For an African side to win it back to back.

Has any other African country won it at all apart from Ghana?

thegoodjoehunt3:
The Nigerian National U17 team achieved a historic thing. The won the U17 back to back for the first time in the history of the competition.

I think this is a beginning of something new and there is one person who showed tremendous belief in not just this U17 team but Nigerian Football.

TheSuperNerd.

I see this victory as a personal victory of him and he rekindled my faith in Nigerian football. He was someone I knew that wholeheartedly believed these guys will succeed and he genuinely expects more victory.

I now share your faith honestly and I believe PELE's words that one day an African team will win the World Cup.

I hope is us and I hope it is soon.

A personal congrats to you my friend.

Brazil's won it back to back before now. In 1997 and in 1999 if I'm not mistaken

Holywizard:
