Nigeria might not even know they have entered and picked their target. Or is Nigeria as powerful as Pakistan a nuclear power where OBL was neutralised?. America rescued their kidnapped citizen from the hands of bandits in a remote location just last year, that rescue mission was not disclosed to NIGERIA until they have secured their man. Buckeyemedia1: Those Federal agents will not make it out alive, unless you are imagining another John Rambo?if Nigeria says no, which they will say, nothing, absolutely nothing will happen, we have a criminal justice system in Nigeria, Kyari lives in Nigeria, he works in Nigeria, he was in Nigeria when the purported crime was committed, he will be trialed in accordance with the Administration Of Criminal Justice Act of The Federal Republic of Nigeria. Many Omoboys have been put on trial by EFCC in Nigeria for collecting money from yankee Mugu. |

Look at the joke called decor. Millions probably was awarded to a crony for that shoddy job. presidency: OPENING REMARKS BY THE HONOURABLE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE FEDERATION AND MINISTER OF JUSTICE AT THE INUAGURATION CEREMONY OF THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE NATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION, THIS 2ND DAY OF AUGUST 2021 AT THE HAGF CONFERENCE CHAMBERS ABUJA
The Chairperson, Governing Council of the NHRC, The Executive Secretary, NHRC, Members of the Governing Council NHRC, Directors of the Ministry of Justice, Members of the press, Ladies and Gentlemen.
I am indeed delighted to be here today to inaugurate the 5TH Governing Council of the National Human Rights Commission. This is pursuant to the directive of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation for me to inaugurate the Council on behalf of the President, Commander- in- Chief.
As you are aware, the Commission was established by the Federal Government of Nigeria in 1995 in fulfilment of its international obligation pursuant to 20th Dec 1993 Resolution 48/134 of the United Nations General Assembly that enjoined all member States to establish National Human Rights Institutions for the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights. This followed the adoption of the Paris Principles of 1993 for the Establishment of National Human Rights Institutions at the 2nd World Conference on Human Rights in Paris 1993. The first world conference on human rights had been held in Vienna Austria in 1991.
The Government amended the NHRC Act in 2010 for its operational independence by entrenching the tenure of members and ensuring adequate funding and effectiveness of the Commission. Since the 2010 Amendment of the NHRC Act, members are nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate before appointment letters are issued. Again the funds of the Commission are now under the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation. This means that funds appropriated for the Commission are released one hundred percent to perform its functions.
Furthermore, the 2010 amendment provided that in the discharge of its functions and exercise of its powers, the Commission shall not be under the control of any authority or person. All these measures have been taken to ensure that the Commission is able to advise the Government properly in the fulfilment of its international human rights obligations and protect and promote the human rights of Nigerians and persons living in Nigeria without fear or favor in line with the Paris Principles. It is known fact that the present government had complied with the award of damages for victims of the 2012 Apo killings of Okada riders by security agents, as well complied with the 2018 White paper recommendations on Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the Nigerian Police. The disbandment of SARS and the setting up of Various panels of Inquiry investigating and awarding damages for human rights violations by SARS is a clear testimony to the fact that this government is fulfilling its international obligation to set up an independent National Human Rights Commission for the Promotion and protection of the rights of Nigerians.
I am happy to note that in recognition of the compliance of the Commission with the Paris Principles, the Commission has been graded with ‘A Status’ in the comity of national Human Rights Institutions by the Global Alliance for National Human Rights Institutions (GANHRI). The Commission has affiliate status with the African Commission on Human and Peoples Rights. These give the Commission access to all necessary meetings at the UN and AU Levels. This is indeed gratifying and it beholds on the Governing Council to uphold and improve on the standard achieved by the previous Councils and the Management of the Commission before now.
Council Members should be guided by the Act, and relevant Government Circulars on tenure, the part-time mandate of members except the Executive Secretary, emoluments etc. Furthermore, in discharging your duties, you are bound by the Code of Conduct for Public Officials and you are expected to take an oath of office before the resumption of your duties.
I want to use this opportunity to commend the Executive Secretary, staff and Management of the National Human Rights Commission who have managed the affairs of the Commission pending the appointment and inauguration of this Council for holding the forth without blemish. I look forward to a cordial working relationship between the Management and the Council to ensure steady progress and achievement of greater heights for the Commission in the near future.
At this Juncture, I wish to congratulate the Chairperson and Members and hereby inaugurate your Council.
Abubakar Malami SAN Honorable Attorney General of the Federation And Minister of Justice. |

That is the most rational thing to do in that circumstance. She might scream she is being abducted while trying to take her to police station and angry mob can even lynch an innocent man.Also documenting it is necessary as there have been several complaint of misconduct against bolt drivers coming mostly from women.Meanwhile it is the other way round. Some ladies have offered sex as payment in kind and turn around later to scream rape. GeorgeTheCoder: If you're asking for your money do so. Take her to the police if need be. Why make a video ?

He was a hyped cop. What he has been doing is photo-ops at major crime busts. The Taraba kidnap kingpin saga exposed him as he was nowhere the scene where a team he is meant to lead was ambushed by rogue soldiers. When the Wadume guy was eventually caught,who did we see at the front grinning from ear to ear?Nigeria's Jack Bauer Kyari. I have seen a picture of him on an acclaimed kidnap busting ops in a ridged corn field in Niger State carrying an assault rifle. They forgot to crop the picture well as our super cop was wearing leather slippers. Similar thing at Ofa where another photo ops session of him carrying riffle to a crime scene that an AI camera deployed by GTB exposed an ex cop who lead the operation. Wickedfact: Abba Kyari has been a very effective cop but you see this one, he used his hands to do himself. It is unfortunate he's enmeshed in this. |

Politics › Re: IGP Decorates 24 AIGs With New Ranks (Pictures) by GEEBITE: 3:46pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
Out of 37 CPs at state and fct commands there are 18 southerners. This is not inclusive of those at Force HQ and other zonal commands which should bring the numbers closer to 30. then only 3 are found worthy while 21 from the North even some with only GCE or just promoted in 2019 have been found eminently qualified. Its all good. Who told you southerners are not in police, tell me a state that beats edo in numbers from even the rank and file. USA use of affirmative action isn't absurd like this. They make room for the best from ethnic minorities not people scoring 2 marks out of 300 in high school common entrance. Coronabirus: Education? Which education again, tell me a single sector that can't be filled by any state at FG? U need to understand for the last time that when those people were employed ur people were not there as such u can't find them when it's time for promotion. Are they going to promote ghost or sergeant into AIG because he is from South? Why do we complain about everything in Nigeria. How is Quota system a problem? Even ur demigod US uses Racial Quota system in anything they do (latinos, hispanics, blacks, etc). I dnt see how it affects merit or no merit. I think we need to criticize constructively and always try to get a good side of a new development. |
Politics › Re: IGP Decorates 24 AIGs With New Ranks (Pictures) by GEEBITE: 3:03pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
No condition is permanent and nothing absolutely lasts forever even impunity. When it is time for education there is quota but Police promotion now it is merit, very laughable. All these AIGs were promoted to CPs in 2018 and less than 3 years they are AIG . Coronabirus: Which table when all is base on merit. Should they promote those who are notduefor promotion because of their geographical location or ethno-religious background? In the next 30yrs the table can never turn down because some people refused to join the institution when others where all over and now the permutation of employment in the force is based on equal number of candidates per state! |
Politics › Re: IGP Decorates 24 AIGs With New Ranks (Pictures) by GEEBITE: 12:02pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
So only Northerners made it on merit on CPs who earned their last promotion in 2018. When the table turns do not complain. Coronabirus: Police promotion doesn't need quota system consideration, it's done purely on merit. Point of correction, that Kwara man is Northerner because Kwara is Northern state. Nigeria isn't defined by tribe or religion but based on geographical location defined by boarder demarcation. |
Politics › Re: IGP Decorates 24 AIGs With New Ranks (Pictures) by GEEBITE: 10:18pm On Jul 26, 2021 |
So out of 24 AiGS only 3 from the south if you discount that Kwara man who is Yoruba . 1 from Sw,Se and Ss. This is grossly lopsided. Coronabirus: This is promotion which is done base on merit and it has to pass through PSC before announcement. Bunch of idiots fill Nairaland, if anything favour them they cheer it and claim merit but if it's otherwise they turn it into ethno-religious matter! |

Your punditry is top notch. It is safe to lure your impending opponent to a false sense of superiority. In an exhibition or friendly game.That was obviously what the team did. soojar: Spoke with sense unlike some wannabe basketball fans who know next to nothing about the sport. Some are even saying they got cocky, against Australia?
If you know who coach Brown is you will know you can't get cocky on his team. The truth is
1. the Aussies are much better than then Nigerians and they are one of the best in the world in basketball. 2. the Aussies unlike the US team is a complete team of attack and defence unlike the US team that there is no notable guard everybody wants to score double figure, just a bunch of superstars with no team cohesion. 3. Nigeria will be playing the very first match at the olympics against this same Australia and you won't expect the coach to reveal all his tactics to them now.
Even though it's almost sure we would be beaten by the Aussies at the olympics, this team has already become a world class under this coach and believe me the score line will not be this wide then and nobody can disgrace us at the olympics again unlike before when USA will defeat us with over 80 points margin |

Because you are not really a sports buff. Basketball and Rugby is national pastime after Football. Have you heard of Manu Ginoboli the legendary SA Spurs PG/SG and 4 time NBA champion, he is an Argentine . Argentina sports spine is basically Italy/Spannish heritage in fact the Argentines are called the South American Europeans as the only country in that continent that the ratio of Europeans to aborigines is about 90:10. In Italy after football, rugby and basketball come next. mansakhalifa: Argentines playing B/ball sounds like a good joke to me.
