And today the Channels TV they USED so so much against an innocent man has suddenly gone MUTE. God is preparing for John Momoh who fronts for his elder brother some good repercussions.

On National TV Lai Mohammed called GEJ the clueless one (on politics Today). Can you try that today with Buhari without the DSS coming to arrest you or the presenter shutting you up?

kunleweb:
Indeed. What if they die before nect year?

Na wa o. I wonder why people don't think about this. We never enter 2019 they are already talking of 2023. What if those guys even die before next year.

This is a teaching moment for Nigeria and Nigerians in general. We copied democracy from America, but we practice democracy upside down.


Republicans and Democrats in America don't tolerate such disrespect and assault on the presidency, especially @ Congress.

The lawmaker was made to apologize to the president and to the general public.


The NASS leadership should have forced the lawmakers involved to apologize to the president or they themselves apologize on behalf of their members and their own failure to control their own NASS.

Out of curiosity I have to ask: Does the American president order his presidential guard to shoot unarmed civilians?

This is one of the reasons the American govt refused to sell weapons to Nigeria in the first place. As you can see the military don't have the intension of using these weapons on Boko haram but on civilians. When amnesty international was crying about this we thought they were saying nonsense. See how unarmed people were killed like chickens. I now see why boko haram might never come to an end because even as a Christian after seeing that video one will definitely have sympathy on the Moslems and will be easily swayed to take up arms against the state. We are not safe in this country at all

B4 I opened the thread I said South Africa, Kenya or Nigeria, and I wasn't wrong. Na for bad thing Africa they carry first.
Longest serving President- Equotarial Guinea
Poverty capital- Nigeria
Porn hub- SA

The same equatorial Guinea was one time the richest country in the world. But seriously what this means is that they have more access to cheap data than Nigeria plus majority of their citizens have access to the internet

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab's father has begged the US government to reduce his son's sentence
- Abdulmutallab, who was 23 at the time of his arrest, was sentenced to life in prison for terrorism
- He was arrested after he attempted to bomb a US airplane on December 25, 2009

Umar Abdulmutallab, the father of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, popularly known as 'Underwear Bomber', has urged the Nigerian government and the government of the UnitedStates to forgive his son for the 2009 terrorismcharges.Abdulmutallab, who was 23 at the time of his arrest, was convicted of attempting to detonate plastic explosives hidden in his underwear while on board Northwest Airlines Flight 253, en route from Amsterdam to Detroit, Michigan, on Christmas Day, 2009.

On February 16, 2012, he was sentenced to four life terms plus 50 years without parole in the United States.Almost 9 years after his arrest, his father is now calling on the government to pardon his son.Daily Trust reports that Abdulmutallab's father,represented by the chief executive officer of Jaiz Charity and Development Foundation, Imam Shuaib Abdullahi, made the appeal at anevent where he was honoured with People’s Friendly Personality Award in Lagos by the Human Rights Monitor Agenda (HURMA).Abdullahi, who spoke on his behalf, said:“Eachtime I discussed with him, he tells me that Imam, ‘I have done my own as a Nigerian, I have been able to save the lives of over 270 people because if that bomb had exploded, weare talking of about 279 lives that would have been lost. He said he was fulfilled that he was able to save those lives.“At the same time it is also a pain for him for one’s son to be incarcerated, given three life sentences concurrently. He said he wouldn’t know if it would be possible in his life time for him to see his son but if it is the wish of God that the son is not released and he leaves this world, so be it.“But deep down in him, he wants to see a situation where perhaps the powers that be can revisit the issue especially now that the son is very remorseful because almost going to 12 years or so, the son is kept in a solitary confinement where he doesn’t interact with any human being even to the point that if he is to be given food, it is through an automatic system that would provide the food.“For a son who cannot even say whether it is morning, afternoon or night, you can really imagine the trauma it is going to be for the father."
Legit.ngreported in 2017 that Abdulmutallabfiled a lawsuit against the United States' Justice Department for violating his rights to free speech and religion.In his lawsuit application filed in a Colorado federal court, Abdulmutallab accused authorities at the United States Penitentiary-Administrative Maximum Facility in Florence, Colorado, where he is being held of denying him his constitutional rights to practice his religion and communicate with his family.

Goalnaldo:
This nairaland don dey confuse me recently. I didn't see the post of the guy most people are quoting here. Please can someone explain.

Lol. The dude might have been reported to the Mods and his post deleted

Ziggylady:
Nice one from the Senate.

There's nothing nice about their action. If the senators had been condemning these nepotism right from the onset I'm sure it would have reduced. Especially those our SE and SS senators.

emmanuelpopson:
he never watch his back..musician with no sense but forming jagaban and misfiring for stage.. now they have staged him on illegal arm possession.....he should watch if he is not gonna end in prison....

he was not staged with illegal arm possession he was actually with it. His lawyer is claiming the gun was licensed and that it was for his protection. My question is that "is small doctor a military man"? Govt can never give you a gun for protection. They usually give license for hunting purpose. This guy is cooked

The only thing I like about this man was his intelligence

Auxtin85:
If he is found guilty wetin go happen? Them go jail he dead body?

His family will really suffer for it. All his entitlement will be gone. He will be treated as someone who was never in the force. The officer na mumu

aboyaji:
Say no to Cultism. Many Nigerians would have been gainfully employed had cultism pay salary. And I would have updated my Cv:

Work experience : cultism - 2009 - present.

The truth is that if cultism pays, the common man would not be able to join or enter. an example is the federal jobs in Nigeria, how many common man dey there?

kehinde1588:
This sound ridiculous sincerely. The legislative arm of govt is a body saddled with the responsibility of making laws, supervising the activities of the executive arm of govt and approving budget. I have never seen any where in the world where legislative arm of govt perform the function of the electoral tribunal. This clearly depicts that Saraki as the senate president lacks direction and its also obvious that he wants to use the senate to play politics. What a shameful act.

Go and read your books properly. The legislative arm can perform any function as far as the people cried to them on the issue. I know many of do not know this but the legislative arm of govt is the strongest arm in a Democratic setting.

is that Jubril lol

scholes0:
Contrary to your write up and qhat I just quoted you on, the old CIA figures are actually based on the result of an Old Nigerian census that included ethnic and religious data. They probably just did their own little tweaking to it and published it as research. EVeryone knows these western agencies know jackshit about Africa or Nigeria ...

This was where the old figures came from. It was the result of Nigeria's 1963 census, that was done before the civil war.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/2568779_48myjko_jpegcecde0d41350fd4fee05703ffa3d97bf

See, Before G.E.J came to power Ijaws have always been at 2% on that C.I.A and other sources Website. It was when the Niger Delta Militant crisis and Jonathan's ascension occured than They suddenly shot up to 10%.

As you can see, the old figures roughly corresponds to the new one, which was what they had up before like some sort of Ingenious research. Fulani plus Hausa, roughly 29%, Yoruba about 21%, Kanuris about 4%, Ibibis 3.5% yada yada..... They probably tweaked the figures and bumed Igbos up to 18 .... and so forth.....

the picture you attached there is not for 1963 but a cooked up BS by an idot. In 1963, there was nothing like Edo or Rivers state, most states written there were non-existence so where did you get that picture from?

Pls let's tell ourselves the truth. who will be in charge of these nukes? The army. Now looking at Nigeria of today, the number one enemy of the Nigerian security is its citizens. once a soldier graduates from training, he is eager to test it on the citizen. Once these men are in possession of such weapon. it is the citizens that should be scared not outsiders. Cause I'm sure the army would have tested it on IPOB if they had such

Bede2u:
and i ask u. Has a president ever sent restructure bill b4? So how can u tell wat the nass will do in such a case. Are nass not made up of se ss nc and sw?

I just read some of your post on this thread and I came to the conclusion that its either you are a paid agent or you are politically naive. For this reason I'll refrain from further response.

Bede2u:
its a legislative duty...but pray tell...is the president barred from sending bills to nass?

Lets say a president drafts a comprehensive restructuring template accepted by the masses and sends to a nass controlled by his party to debate and pass? Are u saying it cant happen?

so what if the president sends the bill and the nass refuse to pass it? what happens? In order to restructure, the president is not even needed. his input is not that relevant. All that is required is the willingness of the Nass. Anybody can be the sender. its not mandatory that the President must be the person to send the bill

Bede2u:
even tho i am a core biafran...i know its better to vote out buhari 1st.

Atiku can restructure....buhari and tinubu will never restructure.

Tinubu wont restructure because he would be a weak president. Buhari wont restructure because he just doesnt care. So atiku it is

I'm telling you this so you don't end up being disappointed later, "Atiku will never restructure". One of the reasons for this is that restructuring is actually a legislative function not executive.

kYjelly2:
So in your infinite wisdom, you think it's better we elect a Buhari, former Dictator and high school graduate

Or

Elect an Atiku that has been there before, didnt do shhh and now wants to come back again

But

We shouldn't vote for Sowore, a graduate from an ivy league University and Founder of Sahara Reporters



Nigeria is really in trouble, because the masses are highly uneducated.

you're the one that need proper education. The fact that you think that Nig problem can be solved by one individual (a hero) shows you need your brain checked. That was how you people shouted sai Baba some years ago telling everyone he is the solution to Nigeria's problem, today we've seen he is a disaster, they are coming up with another hero.

Your Sowore hurriedly came up with a party when its election period in order to be another rich individual. You're here licking his anus. Where were they this past years when the country needed an opposition party to keep the ruling party in check? I can tell you after this election both Sowore and his party will not be heard till next election. Is that how to play opposition? And is that the kind of individual you will vote for? smh. Someone is even mentioning his education qualification as if we've not heard these before. smh

lindabon:
If you are looking for scammers, look at all your criminal politicians that have been ruling Nigeria.
What Sowore is doing is called open and transparent funding devoid of Godfatherism.
You wont understand it because you are so used to the Nigeria style of politicking that involves a lot of money sharing only for the people to be abandoned when the politicians gets into power.
Go and look at Sowore's history and see for yourself if he has ever stolen a penny from Nigeria then use your head to know if he is a scammer or not!! Stop thinking every Nigerian is as criminal minded and corrupt as you are. There are still so many decent Nigerians out there; not everyone is looking for who to scam. Stop thinking that ALL NIGERIANS ARE CRIMINALS.

leave all the English, if sowore becomes a president today under this present structure and system, he will steal a lot of money.

Ndonu101:
Buhari embarked on raid on Judges because he is confusing incompetence of prosecutors to lack of will to fight corruption on the part of the judges

The burden of proof is on the prosecution and never shifts. The prosecution must work harder!

The judges are simply doing their jobs!

Today as we speak the EFCC is going to court because Ekweremadu did not declare his assets to some Presidential panel meanwhile the law of the land and the constitution only require a public servant to declare his assets to the CCB. When the court rule in favour of Ekweremadu and rightly so they will start foolishly accusing the court of Bias.

The court is not interested in emotions! you must prove your case to convict anyone! Otherwise it will be the usual "no case submission"

in Nigeria justice is for sale. if you've never been in situation where you needed justice and it was sold you can be saying this. Or is this not the same country where we were getting conflicting judgement report on a particular case (Makarfi and Modu Sheriff). were the prosecutors also responsible for those judgements. Moreover I raised lot of points in my previous post but this is just one out of it

Ndonu101:
when people make this kind of statement they are saying Atiku is bigger than Nigeria and the Nigerian Justice system. They are saying we are a failed state because this statement means that we have lost the capacity to dish out justice to defaulting citizens!

are you saying you don't know that Nigeria is a failed state and can't dish out justice to defaulting citizens? Why did you think Buhari embarked on a raid on the judges? why do you think the army perform extra judicial killings? and how many Book haram members have been tried and sentenced? why is there plea bargain for the elite? I'm not a Buhari or Atiku fan but we are wasting our time in this country.

bedspread:
i didn't say Mtn! I said Atiku .. in his various businesses...

A brother of mine has worked at Intel so I know

are you saying Atiku's business is larger than Mtn Ng, Dangote group. cause these ones have not been able to employ up to 50,000 Nigerians.

The girl should know that God still love her but most importantly she should humble herself and go back to Primary one(Basic 1)

haffaze777:
Do u know how Yoruba play their politics? well u can go ahead and tell me which state in southwest that PDP will get their major votes from?

Lagos state?
Oyo state?
Ogun state?
Osun state?
Ondo state?
I can't say much of Ekiti state but forget all the abovementioned states

pls wake up from your dream. Buhari will loose Osun state. That's very certain. Even if you ask Buhari today, he will tell you he has lost Osun. The other remaining States will not be a landslide for APC, it will be like 65% to 35%, 60% to 40%, 55% to 45% etc like that

both Tambuwal and Saraki will get a good number of vote from SE and SS. The issue is SW. Kwankwaso on the other hand will fail woefully in the southern region.
As for Atiku, it would have been better he didn't waste his money in this election

buhariguy:
how can government control sex,
The only thing we do now is about sex,
You will even be insulting buhari for not giving you opportunity to steal in order to entice your girlfriend for sex.
That is the main reason our politicians steal and be using the corrupt gotten wealth to be chasing girls like yahoo yahoo boys.
And the poor will also be looking for sex even when they have not see food to eat.

So you're actually writing this so the world sees how foolish some Nigerian's can be. God!! No wonder they call us third world country. If you had learned economics in your secondary school, you would have seen ways of controlling overpopulation. You can Google it if you think its impossible to control population. I won't be surprised if people like you also believe its impossible to eradicate poverty. If you read the history of USA, Canada, Australia you will find that they applied some of those techniques and it helped them.

buhariguy:
How many was your population before independent,
Your GDP before independent.
How was your village develop before independent.

Anyway, blame your past corrupt leaders if anything is wrong with you, don't blame buhari for your misfortune.

What nonsense did you just type. The white man was able to manage the little resources to cater for us and we are not able to do same for ourselves today, you are talking of population. It is the duty of any reasonable govt to manage its population. If the present govt feels population is our problem, what are they doing about it? I personally look at our politicians from executive to legislature to judiciary. Its still thesame set of people who have been ruling since I was born, even though I'm 35 now.

It is a mistake and a big error that Nigeria is still one at 58.
