audio flying

for security reasons, this film should not be released, we should put in mind the bloody reaction in the north to the film. I appeal to the authorities so as to avoid bloodshed and the film maker should be compensated.
We are a country with our own peculiarities, culture, religion and superstition. As Karl Marx said, religion is the opium of the masses

when all these are done, the same masses will turn around to blame the government, that's why sometimes the political will to do the right things are so difficult because the people's reaction can lead to a revolt and the opposition who knows the right decision has been taken will side the masses to take political advantage of the situation. the opposition then rally against GEJ's increment in fuel price but when they take over government, they didn't reverse the price instead they increase it further, the right decision will always be viewed from 3 different angles, government angle, masses angle and opposition angle. Government angle is the necessity, the masses angle is the effect on their lives while the opposition angle is finding an opportunity to take a political advantage even though the decision may be right but the more it is going to bring a short time hardship on the people they (opposition) will discredit it

your friend's father died and his family have access to his money in the bank through his atm card, instead of them to systematically be withdrawing the money from his account to another before the card get lost or expired, they waited till it happens, except his pension is still being paid to this account after his demise, the man family na mumu

we always twist things, do people think as a minister you can just walk into the president's office? you need the cos to book an appointment with the president, we always want to read meaning into a everything

Nigeria Police and IPOB na the same, they both lie. If zombies can believe Mazi story of Jubril al Sudan then zombies from the other side too can believe the police on this

This situation too happened in Nigeria in 1984, in the champions league final 2nd leg in Lagos between Shooting stars of Ibadan and Zamalek of Egypt at the National stadium.
Stationery Stores fc of Lagos were in a bitter rivalry with shooting stars that the Stores most vociferous supporters group known as "fire 2" (they mostly converge in the open terrace opposite the covered stand in the national stadium during international matches) jubilated when Zamalek scored through their Ghanaian international Emmanuel Quarshie, and again when Odegbami missed a penalty kick (even the penalty was retaken, he missed too)
After the match, Stores fan (who are jealous of shooting stars as the Adebajo boys haven't won the Cup) make jest of the dejected Shooting fans who came all the way from Ibadan to see their club fail to overturn a 2 goal deficit and couldn't lift their 2nd CAF champions cup.

then it was rumored that it is Stephen Keshi that tried to block chidi from being invited for the world cup finals as he wasn't part of the qualifications to the Mundial and Tunisia 94. He was part of the Beveren team that had a good campaign in the champions league prior to USA 94 with an outstanding performance at the heart of the club's defence. His performance then make him not to be overlooked for the world cup by westehoff

don't ever date a lady you already know has dated guys in the same working place with you. You can do this only if your aim is just to have sex with her, but to take it further to marry her shows you are naive

koeman is a good guy, remember him in the 90s with Ajax, his trademark power laden free kicks then are superb, he tried as a manager with Everton but with a barca team seeking rebirth? matches to come will decide his fate

take the radiator for steam wash and flushing if you haven't done so, and the water pump might be defective

this article is full of mischief, though I agree that corruption is still ongoing under the watch of PMB, we should always put our records straight, the story of snake eating money happened before Buhari come on board in 2015 when jamb used to sell scratch card for registrations, and it's part of the scratch card proceeds that a staff of jamb allegedly embezzled feigning a snake has eaten the money when probed

crap, all these stories including a fish that swallowed Jonah are all tales by moonlight, religion is meant to manipulate the gullible

I can't forget that day in a hurry, I was at the stadium taking my seat under the giant scoreboard, the stadium was full to capacity and there was no crowd control measures in place, the covered terrace too was filled to the brim resulting in some fans standing, blocking the view of those sitting, those standing were pushed and rolled down to the railings resulting in the death of about 6 fans.
Okparaji was waiting for a throw in when he slumped, I saw Siasia with his hands on his head, I feared something terrible might have happened to Sam, he was rushed to hospital in an ambulance, the ambulances had a busy day going in out of the stadium rushing fans who were injured in the stampede on the terrace to the hospital. Not until the next morning I read in the papers that Okparaji and 6 fans had died in the course of the match against Angola in which Nigeria won 1-0 courtesy of returnee Okey Isima stunner

This set of leaders are the worse to ever rule Nigeria. those of you still forming loyalty to party, religion or tribe should know that if the looting continues unchallenged, then insecurity would he so terrible that going across your house or answering a call on the road with a good phone can be a death sentence.

it's high time we rise up and speak, irrespective of our tribe or religion...this government has failed us.

soldiers are dying in their thousands yet one man would divert funds meant for arms that would give us the upper hand in this war.

I would encourage every youth to arm him/herself with their PVC. come 2023 we'll correct this mess

which mess you wan correct, nothing can be corrected everything is messed up even those shouting credible alternative are in mess, and the youth? they are in mess.
Forget 2023, the only thing that will change is the masses condition that will change to worst. Nigeria ain't gonna look good

these banditry ravaging the north will soon be happening in the south, as our politicians carry on as if nothing is happening, mark my words, it's gonna happen with the state of joblessness and hopelessness among the youths, in another few years Nigeria will be another Somalia

My take in all this is how easy it is to offer our judges bribe, to go to the CJN to confirm if he actually received a bribe?

I was on the road today, and it was really frustrating, first time in my life to say to someone that Nigeria is cursed, go slow from ijako ota all the way to arigbajo, so terrible a road, a major road linking Abeokuta to the commercial city of Lagos, first time I regret having sympathy for the 'change' government. Walahi, I was cursing Fashola while meandering through the death trap called Lagos Abeokuta expressway, I spend 4hrs from Abule Egba to Papalanto. It was frustrating, I was asking my son of 15 years who cursed Nigeria, the boy was just looking at me like 'why Dad is angry like this'

when 2 ijebus fight, it's the stakers that will suffer

fsyose and other politicians that have been on the saddle since 1999 must die for Nigeria to have peace

lightening and thunder are natural phenomenon, don't link it to sango or other gods. it kills in Western world too. Death is lurking everywhere, we are just lucky to be survivors up to this moment

I can't understand our leaders, rules are put in place restricting inter state movements, some governors gather together to flout the rule for a non essential trip to Lagos for political gathering for an election taking place in Edo state. Obaseki is travelling inter state campaigning in Lagos and Abuja while hapless citizens who have more important things to do in other states are marooned in their present locations. Our leaders breach the laws they put in place while the masses are expected to obey same laws, Are governors above the law? is political lobbying and campaign part of essential inter state movement in this pandemic?

Using opportunity of a protest to loot stores is condemnable.

We will support the governor for doing this, but what happened to the rule of law here? a governor just wake up to demolish a property belonging to a suspected kidnapper (yes suspected as he is still innocent till decided otherwise by a court of law) who is still at large.
We should learn how to follow due process in this country not playing to the gallery by our governors who turn themselves to law on their own. The man might be a kidnapper but the property should be seized pending when he will be arrested and prosecuted, then if convicted the property can be forfeited or destroyed according to the extant laws.
We the masses applaud these governors when they take populist but unlawful decisions, we fail to point it out to them to follow due process because the person at the receiving end is a low life or a dare devil criminal. Imagine the governor who exercise his powers unlawfully this way, finding himself in a corruption charges after finishing his term in office, and the federal government decided to demolish the property allegedly aquired or built with the corrupt money without waiting for the court to decide his guilt or otherwise.
We will now join the governor based on our ethnic, religious and political linings to condemn the act, citing "presumed innocent until proven guilty", shouting "due process isn't followed". But because this alleged kidnapper didn't commit a white collar crime, he and his property have to be crucified without having his day in the court of law.
No sign of civilization in all of us in this country, we are all bunch of hipocrites only fit for the jungle, If we must embrace democracy, the rule of law mustn't be applied selectively especially based on the haves and have nots. Mind you I hate kidnappers but rule of law should always guide us

No where be the BEST but some places are better than some. JUSTICE will be served in this Case.
Very Pathetic.
This is equivalent to tying a NOOSE around one's neck.
The World Is watching the seat of the WORLD'S LARGEST DEMOCRACY.....

This is murder, a premeditated killing
