Who Union Epp?

Unionism in Nigeria is not about workers—it’s about executives chasing dues and revenue.

Ask the 4,000 CNSSL staff at MTN Call Centre in 2011. NLC forced unionisation, chaos followed, and within two months the entire centre was shut down. Jobs lost. NLC did nothing.

Or GIG Logistics in 2020. NLC tried to force unionisation, the company resisted, and staff who backed the union were sacked. One senior manager is now an Uber driver.

The fact is clear: unionism here doesn’t protect jobs—it destroys them. If you value your livelihood, avoid it.

The Don has taken over Rivers. Emperor Wike can only rant in his bedroom.

Is this a joke ? Can we have name oc these roads ? This guy must a comedian or high on something higher than him when he made the statement

The U.S. is not officially in a recession, but the economy is showing clear signs of strain. Job growth has slowed, layoffs are rising at major companies like Kroger, Nike, and Oracle, and consumer spending is shifting toward essentials like food. Some sectors, including tech and healthcare, remain resilient. Economists warn a recession is possible, but the situation is far from a total economic collapse.

Ladoja is a fanatics and extremists and very greedy

I only hope Ibadan will do well under him

I wouldn’t call him fanatical. He’s principled and methodical in his approach, which can sometimes make him appear rigid. As for whether he’s greedy, I remain indifferent.

No president whether Jonathan or anyone else can turn back the clock to the Nigeria of the Jonathan or Buhari era. A new economic reality has been established under Tinubu, and that is the framework successive governments will inherit and build upon.

Expecting a return to ₦8,000 bags of rice or ₦200 per litre petrol is unrealistic. Those days are gone. What lies ahead is the task of adapting to this new order rather than longing for the past.

Buhari tried to shut the doors strategically by making passport issuance and renewal uneasy. Strategically, Tinubu opened the door wider but allow few to pass through cos of high exchange rate which has made relocation unaffordable as it was few years back. If the cost of japa is still the same as Buhari's regime, Nigerian living in nigeria would have reduced drastically.

Ado-Ekiti roads have collapsed to their worst state since Adeniyi Adebayo.
During Fayose and Fayemi’s first terms, Ado-Ekiti roads were solid.
Today, the state capital is a wreck. Rural roads are forgotten.

Step into Ekiti and see the failure with your own eyes.

This governor is a disaster that should be voted out. But in Nigeria, politics is not about performance. It is about loyalty to the godfathers, bountifully greasing party leaders, and sharing ₦10k per voter on election day.

This is not governance. It is political banditry against the people.

Ibikunle Amosun's bad governance keep surfacing by the day. But then, the current governor could have revitalised the facility and write his name in gold. No, he won't cos he is Mr failure too.

Osun State 2026 gubernatorial election is going to be interesting

Availability of hostel accommodation within the university will reduce student's exposure to these menace.

80-90% of resident of this town called Akungba-Akoko are students. The exposure is huge and risky. Horrible news is unabated under this system.

Alagidi talaka is just waking up at 70 years. His rigidity caused him alot in politics. Yet, he is the best administrator Ekiti state has ever had.

Those pushing this woman forgot to tell her she’s in Nigeria. Moreover she can’t fight these forces and not get crushed…Ask Fubara

I don't think anybody is pushing her. She is just a narcissist.

Clearly, this is yet another desperate attempt to stay in the spotlight out of sheer boredom. The entire drama began because she misunderstood the Senate rules on seat reassignment.

Rather than wasting this suspension period on publicity stunts, she would do well to study the Senate rules, strengthen her grasp of legislative procedures, and return with greater knowledge, confidence, and credibility.

Charly68:
Can a son walk away from the house of his father ? Except one is a bastard ,you won't leave nor abandon your father's house even if he offends you. The patternal bond we develop with our father is eternal and unbreakable... Check your life if you suddenly walked away from God. It means you aren't a son yet .

Walking away from church does not necessarily implies walking away from God. We worship God in truth and in spirit.

You guys are hell bent to force this narrative on our throat. Please believe your belief and stop roaming up and down for others to accept your belief.

We are in a free world.

Apt and indepth analysis.

Can you write for a legal blog ?

Katell:
Did you have the opportunity to read this section of the original post?

"The recent application submitted to the court introduces a new development in what has evolved into a complicated and extended family dispute regarding the extensive estate of the deceased politician, who passed away without a Will on January 12, 2022."

As stated in the post, the root of the issue lies in the lack of a legal Will. If you are still curious about where I obtained this information, dying intestate in legal terms refers to passing away without a Will.

This situation is markedly different from the examples you referenced to support your vague response.

The Wigwe family is contesting the Will because the Nigerian version contains only three pages, whereas the Florida version comprises 18 pages. In the case of Chief F.R.A. Williams (SAN), the conflict arose because the children could not reach a consensus on how to distribute the late lawyer's estate. While some advocate for the enforcement of the Will, others prefer to divide the properties according to their prior agreement.

In both instances, Wills were executed by the deceased, yet their families are disputing the enforcement. In the case of Alao Akala, there is no Will; he died intestate.

It is only a shallow-minded individual who would hastily and thoughtlessly comment on matters they have not thoroughly read.

DomPerignon:
Is Wike no longer dead as you all claimed ?

Show me where I said so or goofed forever

OneCandleAway:
Heard initially they didn't want to give him an appointment immediately but he was screaming that they want to disgrace him after all he had done. So the fct post was to keep him calm.

This might not be far from the truth cos I remember him visiting the Aso Rock with his G5 gang almost every week before the nomination. Infact, he was so tensed and desperate that he didn't properly buttoned his shirt on one of the occasions. He looked troubled that he can't speak to the Press. It was Governor Seyi Makinde/ Ayo Fayose that always speak whenever cameras and microphones were pointed at them.

Boom ! Upon been sworn in and given autonomy from Single Treasury Account, he became 'The Emperor, The conqueror, The champion' who want others to sing and hyped him as ' the Lion is here, Nzogbu nzogbu, Enyimba enyi

Dear Senator Natasha,

If you had understood the system properly especially the House rules, you won't have flared up on that fateful day. You never knew defection could altered sitting position. That ignorance landed you into a deep water which you are still swimming.

My advice is, use the holiday to read all ethics and rules guiding the operations of the upper chamber. Know your right and privileges as a Senator of the federal Republic of Nigeria. Improve on yourself. Knowledge is power. Aggression cannot breed power but Knowledge can.

Read instead of ranting.

There is 1,440 minutes in a day. If 583 men slept with her in one day, it implies they spent an average of 2.5 minutes with her from 12:01 till 11:59pm or 7am to 7am next day.

I don't believe the statistics. She might have slept with multiple men in one day but the figure could not be 583 men.

Lateef Fagbemi SAN is a silent achiever.

Kudos Boss !

He is one of them and he is not fit to advise us. Stop using us to get relevance.

If this your assertion is true, how come is child marriages is still prevalent in Nigeria with no state in exception?

You are free to challenge such marriages in court. At least it will help to understand that the law exist in Nigeria and its 36 states.

Should you need a lawyer, I am at your service. #Pro pretium

For educational purposes pls note the following:

1. Ondo state don't have a law on consensual sex between minor and adult.

2. If it's not rape case, the man will have to be ready to take responsibility on the girl.

3. There is still need to establish the ownership of the baby as there is no where in the statement above that a confession is made by the man it is all allegations against him.

4. The family is looking for sympathy from the public for their failures.

5. The people asking for private settlement should be able to give more information if the case goes on trial.

6. Both amotekun and the Oba have no jurisdiction on this case.

7. Office of public defender child protection department should step into this case quickly and see to end of it.

8. Association of person with disability should Mount pressure on government to see too this.

My submission.

Kindly be informed that all states in Nigeria have domesticated the Child Right Act. In August 2022, Zamfara also assented to the Act, while Bauchi, the only holdout state, finally passed the Act on December 28, 2023.

What does the laws says :
Child's Rights Act, 2003
Sec. 31 – Unlawful sexual intercourse with a child, etc.
(1) No person shall have sexual intercourse with a child.
(2) A person who contravenes the provision of subsection (1) of this section commits an
offence of rape and is liable on conviction to imprisonment for life.
(3) Where a person is charged with an offence under this section it is immaterial that --
(a) The offender believed the person to be of or above the age of eighteen years; or
(b) The sexual intercourse was with the consent of the child

Age of Consent – 18 years of age

Be informed too that ONDO STATE CHILD RIGHT LAW WAS ENACTED IN 2007 and became enforceable in 2022. The law protects children from sexual abuse, exploitation, and other forms of harm.

Age of Consent – 18 years of age

Nigerian democracy should be given its its unique definition. It's not the same with definition they thought us in secondary school.

This man should understand by now that China no send im papa.
