Liz Truss going going go…n….
She’s in office but not in power

she should not forget to carry braverman along o

Lexusgs430:
Some illegal immigrants, are also professionals ......

Whose fault? When they know they will be treated better as illegal immigrants

Lexusgs430:
A stronger civil service, is more important........

Stronger civil service that place more emphasis and premium on refugees, illegal immigrants than skilled professionals. They are a joke honestly

AlphaUno:
This confirms the screenshot.
If there is no strong opposition to this move, it will go thru and the UK economy will be the worse for it, as the ripple effect will be on the schools.

A pragmatic immigration policy that will encourage legal immigrants, bring in talents and discourage illegal immigrants is the way to go.

When it’s time to send illegal immigrants to Rwanda, NGOs will carry placards but look away when legal immigrants are impeded thru d means of law.

Presently, there seem to be a dearth of pragmatic politicians who can take the UK out of its present woes. The ones around now are clowns busy doing trial and error.

You are very right the quality of leadership in the uk has really dropped, all these small girls like Truss, kemi, braverman have no business in govt. Too low level for a so called advanced nation

johnjose68:
I hope Aisha Yesufu, Rinu and Soyombo will read between the lines.

They shouldn't let their anger towards the current government allow them to make mistakes.

They should carefully and intelligently lay out the facts and choose wisely.

Aisha has successfully criticized buhari and she was not killed or arrested...but imagine... their candidate has not even won...they are already threatening.

Nigerians beware...

This has always been my concern, the obi project has been hijacked by hardliners.

seunmsg:
We can now properly situate the Obidient movement into two groups. The first group is made up of Igbo folks who are simply riding on the discontent of young people with the situation of things in the country to push for an Igbo man (Peter Obi) as president irrespective of his solid record of failure as a governor.

The second group is made up of young, naive, ignorant, idealistic and deluded folks from other ethnic groups who think there is truly a messiah out there with a magic wand to turn Nigeria to America under a year.

The first group don’t really care about competence or a better Nigeria, they just want their ethic lord as president. To them, Peter Obi is the Voldemort who can never be wrong and must never be questioned even by his own supporters. Now that obvious gaps are appearing in the decisions of Peter Obi which calls his real intention and competence to question, the deluded second group want to start asking critical questions but the first group are saying no. Don’t ask questions or else, we drag you wotowoto despite the fact that they are on the same side.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is where we are right now. We shall update you if there is further development

Badt boy, oya remove your hands from your pocket and say present sir lol

The FG has really succeeded in using the court judgement to unsettle the SE politically, whether kanu is released or not there will be agitations and this is already happening

ugoonuoha:
Agreed! The guy didn't put in a good showing at all (nor did Liz truss but na she be Oga Boss). Beyond the policies, his body language was so bad...awkward, twitchy, shaking, looking dodgy (something Rishi Sunak go finesse with confidence). Infact the entire govt need to go....everything is so cringe.

The guy came in the worst of times amid so much pressure, just unfortunate he has to be the fall guy. Liz Truss's days are numbered, she can't survive this for too long, she's just postponing her own sack

Lexusgs430:
É don happen....... Then don sack our brother.......

May I not be a victim of circumstance o.

Scapegoat things

Great game for uzoho, unfortunately fergie time spoil show

Even if uzoho conceed in this game, he's been marvellous tonight. His defenders sha are wicked, how will you allow your keeper suffer such torment?

eddie7:
*The Federal Government released Nnamdi Kalu for a Political reason. And the reason is for him to declare "NO ELECTION IN THE SOUTH EAST" for their selfish interest. But it will be a surprise story for them when Nnamdi kalu will remain silence and keep a watch on how the election will go in 2023 Presidential election. Get your PVC ready cause we are getting our country back in 2023

He can't keep silent, Peter obi opponents will see it as endorsement, if he supports obi, that makes it worse, if he opposes obi, yawa don gas be that. Any option is worrisome to Obi and his supporters. Their prayers should be that he remains where he is till after elections. Let the court judgement be on paper for now but that again can raise agitations. The court pronouncement not good for all APC opponents at this time be it pdp or LP

be like say Obedients no like this news o

mrvitalis:
Because it's against the law ..read so you would stop embarrassing your family

Have your ignorance not been exposed

KanwuliaExtra:
Those who don’t give shi-shi should not ask for shi-shi !

Abi o

mycar:
Because he wants to serve us and not to be served

Indeed so he can't use his personal money to serve

iykofias:
Biden will demand they release him without any further delay, Americans are above the law

Exactly, nothing will be done to him o, but make any naija guy try am, na prison straight

successmatters:
If I don't hear from Peter Obi, I won't give shi shi

You need to drop shi shi now o, party agents need transport fare na

mrvitalis:
Obi is worth minimum $300 million dollars that's me being conservative

There are many local and international companies that would pay him millions of dollars just to have him on their board like he was before became governor

Has your candidate every been a top executive of any private company that's not link with government contracts ?

Why is he not using his personal money

we no go get president be that cos no one pure o

Jaycee07:
They are not. I agree they are not. But I want you to know how economics work. What drives the Lekki port is importation. Right?? Do you agree? The big establishments like the banks exist and thrive because there are private and public sector enterprises who do business with them. My point is that Lagos and indeed other part of Nigeria can’t live in isolation outside Igbo business. Whether you love them or hate them is a different matter altogether. When it comes to investment, you have to give it to them. Now this is not Politics. It’s realism and truth. And please one more thing: Dont allow hate and bigotry to cloud your sense of judgement. Live your life outside that confined and narrow optics of hate that you have .Even Tinubu recognizes the good that Igbo businesses have added to the revenue generation in Lagos and other south western states. And just so you know, Dangote refinery is where some Nigerian politicians hide their stolen loot. Tribes don’t matter in this.

the ports and the banks facilitate those enterprises you are talking about, it's even the banks that lend to those enterprises to expand the businesses so what are you talking about? The Igbos can never leave any vacuum in Lagos, they are very replaceable with Indians, Lebanese, Chinese, and the likes who will be happier to have more room and space for their businesses so you see the Igbos are not indispensable to a global economy like that of Lagos. Tinubu knew that one day he will vie for the presidency that's why he gave you guys some political capital in Lagos, unfortunately, he never knew the kind of people he was dealing with

udeh3:
Please, do a little finding about the Dangote group. Check the top ranked members and let me know which tribe dominated it more

do they own the Dangote group?

Jaycee07:
Sir
I am not Igbo. But let me ask you a question and I want you to be completely honest with me. If you take out the entire Igbo community along with their investments and businesses in Lagos and other south western states, what do you think will be left of it?
Again like I did say, I’m not Igbo. This calls for tight self-scrutiny. I want you to think about what that means if you have a conscience.

So the lekki ports, refinery and all the conglomerates in lagos are all igbo investments?

Thermodynamics:
South East and Lagos are part of Nigeria. So therefore Lagos and Ibadan and Delta and Enugu and Kano all belong to Nigerians, including the Igbos and the Yoruba. Lagos is my land as a Nigerian and I have the right to do anything I want to do in my land.

No you don't, in Kano with hisbah you can't do what you like, even in the SE you can't do what you like if sit at home is declared.

Lagos also has the right to declare what it wants and all residents there must abide with it. That's what justice is all about

candidtalk:
Don't mind them. Lagos leaders are only chilling because of elections. Igbos will face more prescription in Lagos ,going forward, after elections are over.

Rightfully so because they are not the only ethnic group in the state to always be causing Lagos the wahala and nuisance they do. They are becoming seriously problematic and Lagos administrators now realize they have to be checked.

Political correctness is the cause of all these nonsense. Am glad with the court order. The Lagos govt acted with tact.

It's high time states govt begin to act very indigenously especially the sw states. Enough of all the insults all in the name of a Nigerian living anywhere in Nigeria can do as he likes. It's never true. If some northern states has hisbah because they want to preserve their religion, then other states should begin to implement laws to preserve their unique environment too. It's about time. If some folks can enforce sit at home successfully even on days when children should be in school then any state should be allowed to enforce what they want for their own sanity and peculiar circumstances

Lagos state or any south west state should never be an experimental ground for political correctness. That's injustice and he who comes to equity must come with clean hands

Babinski:
If Peter Obi is so careful he doesn't want to offend Atiku, then allowing people to see him (Peter Obi) as a political saviour that wants to return the country back to the youth is nothing more than blatant fraud. The destroyers of this country will not sit down and let anyone simply take it out of their grip, so if Peter Obi is not battle ready, then forget it. He is a fraud.

na today? make una take am easy haba, una blood too dey hot

Brendaniel:
I know he has good plans, I didn't believe in him before, until I started hearing stories from people who had personal experiences, not from famous people, I mean people even here on nairaland who were in Anambra state during his tenure, then what made me believe their statement more was when most of the godfathers in Anambra said he was a stingy man, if a Nigerian politician calls you stingy then I know that you are doing something that is right that is not favouring their selfish appetite.

That is still why I tell everyone that if APC fields Ambode as their candidate, I might switch to start supporting him maybe after a debate between both of them, I had a politician friend then who always complained during Ambode's tenure that he was a stingy governor that Ambode was not sharing money to them as it was in Fashola, he was most times always broke because he was always expecting money from APC Lagos, at the same time I was seeing Ambode's work in Lagos and I was just wowing , Ambode made Fashola look almost like a joke in just 4 years, that was why when he was removed I wasn't too surprised same way they removed Peter Obi too till he claimed it back via the court...

Fashola was equally seen as stingy, the difference is that he created lots of jobs through many implemented programs and infrastructures that boosted the Lagos economy, especially the creation of many agencies through which party members got lots of jobs and benefits whereas Ambode came and merged those agencies back into the ministries and even sacked lots of people, na there Ambode problem start, folks also accused him of high handedness

Any candidate promising restructuring is a liar

Itsrm:
They also had it coming. They want our money, they have to deal with the consequences. They can't eat their cake and have it.

Maybe they should try to stop people from bringing in dependants and see how many applications their universities will receive.

With the current state of the economy where pound is falling they got no choice.

They should also look at the revenue data families are bringing into the economy, shebi landlords are smiling to the banks

Amarathripple0:
This is so shameful and insane.

Why it's so shameful and insane, it's not advisable for Nigerians to begin to report fellow Nigerians to the police, na all of us go suffer the backlash Las Las.

I suggest name and shame to prevent other Nigerians falling into such manipulation.

One of Nigeria's best and most underrated player.

Wish you all the best Miikel, You came saw and conquered. I remain one of your most grateful fans.
