Samuel Ekpa is not the problem of Nigeria, but marginalisation and seclusion. If Ekpa is arrested thousands of Ekpa would spring up, it is an ideology not an individual perception. Until the govt starts to address the problems of Nigeria before people like Ekpa can be irrelevant in our society. The whole world knows that Leadership problem is an impediment to the growth and development of Nigeria .

This has been on my mind for sometime now and I think it is important to bring it to the front page. Why should the government be subsidizing pilgrimage for those who wish to perform pilgrimage? What happens to those who are not religious? Also considering the fact that Nigeria constitutionally is a secular state. Is this not a way of depriving some people from the resources of the country while others are benefiting. Is it not time to scrape this Policy? And of what use is the pilgrimage to the development of the country? The pilgrims boards have also in the past involved in criminalities by selling slots to favoured and higher bidders, you know what I mean! Religion is a personal adventure and anybody willing to embark on pilgrimage should be able to pay for it not using the state resources for such an adventure. I strongly call on well meaning Nigerians to call on the government to stop this jamboree and modern slavery of pilgrimage as it has no developmental purpose for the country.

Good for them

Personally I do not think it's a good idea to have sacked the coach, where is the time for rebuilding? We do not have to always sack coaches for one time poor performance in a competition, they should be given time to rebuild and learn from their mistakes.

Nigeria vs Cameroon in the second round of afcon . Guys what so you think?

Since I was a kind I've always heard this complain of people who ordinarily are known to be " good and kind hearted" amongst his/ her siblings and friends travelled out of the country and suddenly becomes this person opposite of what he/she is known to be. In reality it might be the case but people fail to put into consideration what you're going through , and because of this culture of entitlement we fail to understand that at the end of the day it is all man for himself and God for us all. It might sound mean but it is the reality . It is not that those people that travelled have changed in terms of their heart of kindness but rather the new society have so shaped them to only Cather for themselves. That is the way the economies in Europe are structured. They're not structured in such a way to be working so hard and be a good Samaritans to those who just sleep and wake up back home, and waiting for the friend or family members abroad to send money.
People abroad didn't change but the society they now found themselves changed them to now see that working hard can only put food on your table not lazing around. If you're abroad and you have to go through all the hard legal means of survival and you look back home and realised some people are just waiting for you to send money , it makes you more unkind as you used to be.
So I want to believe this has answered to the question " why do people change when they get abroad"?

I'm just wondering what kind of business can one do with a million naira to get 10k daily .is there any business ? Business without risk , I mean no risk at all.

The doctors are not following the standard procedure in the health system, there's the world health organisation checklist standard for surgical operations. Surgeons and nurses are supposed to have a checklist where all tools are counted before and after every operation so as to avoid cases like this .

She's talking because she's never been scammed. If you worked so hard and some irresponsible guys who claimed to be smart stole your money then you'll know how bad it is to be scammed.

This is Nigeria for you, a country where a whole community is given a half bag of rice as palliative and the Senators are sharing exotic cars. Nigerians are the most gullible people in the world.

lavylilly:
Never work for a man who is CHRONIC womanizer, it always ends in regrets.

Don’t be fooled by what they portray outside (social media).

Set clear boundaries in the workplace.

Avoid or run FAR from organization that uses crack version of softwares.

Learn to short change your employers (VERY necessary) because the "take home" will NEVER take you home.

Don't stay in company accommodation, they turn you to their slaves.

Leave organization that doesn't give you chance of improvements

If by any chance your salary is delayed even for a day or not paid as agreed (without communicating to you why it's been delayed) on the offer letter, activate exit plan ASAP.

Lack/inadequate medical services for staff - If the medical services (HMO) does not cover you ONLY or you & your family, don't run, disappear!!

No Ieave allowance (you work 24/7 & 365 days) Just resign ASAP

Learn never to short-changed your employer because you knew the salary before accepting the job, otherwise forget it and allow those who will be contented take the job.

Till now the govt hasn't come up with a plan to stop people from jumping from the Bridge, I'm so disappointed in Lagos and Federal govt. Can't they design a preventive measure? Must the sides of the Bridge remain exposed the way it is now? making it easy for people to jump into the lagoon.

smileyoo:
yes.
he is now duty bound to sue them, except if indeed he is guilty as charged, in that case i will be highly disappointed in that OPM pastor, because nigerians regards him as one of the few pastors, with a good heart, in Nigeria.
but this life no balance ooo, because the ingrates always receive help quickly than the good natured people.
few weeks ago, i needed urgent help and for the first time in my life, was forced to beg for help, but nobody came through to my help, before God decided to give me wisdom to come out of the pressing problem.
lol. maybe I was not made to be a begger, for whatever reason, that's why i didn't receive any help from anybody.
it's highly disgusting to be ungrateful to your helpers, for whatever reasons.

So Eve should be grateful to the snake (devil) that gave her apple that made her disobeyed God?

That's the exact problem we're facing in Nigeria , people no longer look at the substance of an allegation but the personality of the accused Person. The first question that should come to mind is , is the story true? Is he guilty ? And not how he helped them in the past. This is why the justice system in Nigeria is messed up, because of too much sentiments due to the influence of certain interests to subvert justice.

I heard he was a good Police officer,one of the few good ones.

It's a shame !!! How could a country summoned the whole continent? For example Nigeria - European conference, with all European countries coming to Nigeria to be addressed.... Shame on African leaders..

Do real men really care about hairstyles or mindset? For me the latter is more seek by serious men

US-based Social Justice Crusader Threatens To Sue Disability Commission Boss Over Alleged Rape Case
Posted by Eric OjoFeatured, Latest News, News Across NigeriaMonday, April 10th, 2023


(AFRICAN EXAMINER) -A concerned Nigerian and social justice crusader, David Musa King has vowed to institute a legal action against the Executive Secretary of the National Commission for Persons With Disabilities (NCPWD), Mr. James Lalu, over alleged rape complaint.

King, who hails from Ganawuri town in Riyom Local Government Area (LGA) of Plateau State, but currently lives in the United States, disclosed this in an exclusive interview with African Examiner.

He said based on the valid and verifiable issues underpinning the rape allegation against Mr. Lalu by the victim, Miss Veronica Goltokka, he is poised to file a case in court to seek redress on behalf of the victim after the police might have finished their investigation and make official reports as requested by the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC).

“I am social Justice person and I believe the victim deserves justice. Most importantly, the victim came out to tell her story. It is not easy in Nigeria and we all must support the victim of rape, who in most cases, is without a voice and I’m ready to take this up personally to see that she gets justice”, he said.

According to him, the Department of State Services (DSS), the Police, and the Federal Investigation Bureau (FIB) have interviewed the victim, who is still very traumatized by the experience and its indelible backlash.

“As we speak right now the NHRC in Abuja has written to the Inspector General of Police (IGP) to investigate the rape case and the IGP has assured that he will investigate. We cannot sweep this under the carpet”, he added.

King further disclosed that the victim has equally drew the attention of the Nigerian Government by writing to some of its relevant agencies such as The Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development and the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development, the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) as well as the UN Women Nigeria Office.

He added that the victim was a junior fellow student of his at the Plateau School for the Deaf and a member of the disability community in Plateau State, which Mr. Lalu also belongs to.



He equally pointed out that Mr. Lalu should not have been appointed as the Executive Secretary of NCPWD in the first place due to his antecedent.

“The law that established the Disability Commission is very clear that those with criminal background cannot be appointed into the commission. I don’t see why he should continue to hold such position”, he further stated.

The social justice crusader further observed that the NCPWD boss is not only known for rape but for also violating fundamental human rights of person with disabilities as ruled by Jos High Court. The case filed against him by one Mr. Nehemiah Daret for violation of his fundamental human rights.

“The records are there for anyone involved the government to get a copy of judgment and read. The victim of human right abuse was awarded N5 million by the court.

“When delegate of petitioners from Plateau visited DSS about this particular matter, we were shocked to be told by officials of DSS that our governor, Simon Lalong made at least four trips to DSS Abuja just to defend and cover Mr. Lalu. They asked if we are fighting our governor? This is very sad indeed”, he stressed.

Recounting her ordeal in a letter dated 22nd of November 2020, which was addressed to the Director General of DSS, the victim said: “He raped me! He indeed raped me and I hope the world can hear me. Mr. Lalu took away my human dignity and my pride as a woman”.

Sir you made a very big mistake for not including Plateau state in one of the states Peter Obi would get minimum of 70% votes

I've lived in England and Germany for years still I'm yet to see a single project being commissioned even though I see construction works going on every now and then. Is commissioning of projects another mode of corruption in itself? What is the idea behind commissioning of a project? Why spend so much to commission a project ? I personally think it's about time we do away with such extravagant life. This is my submission.

This is the loadshedding of South Africa under an African leadership. South Africa is gradually turning to Nigeria due to corruption and bad leadership. South Africa until after apathied and obviously the regime of Mandela enjoyed good electricity system until Africans started ruling and now they can't enjoy the luxury of constant power supply. Come to think of it, is the black race caused? Why has greed taken over the minds of both leaders and followers?

Maybe na delegate money he take buy am

Political statement! What idea have you that you didn't borrow Buhari? Abi no be the same APC again?

danladi02:
The governor of Kogi State, a top presidential aspirant in the All Progressive Congress (APC), has urged party executives and delegates to look for a candidate who can handle the country's security challenges, among other things. In a viral video, Bello, while addressing delegates and fellow Nigerians, stated that he has a workable roadmap to ensure peace and security for all Nigerians, just as he has established in Kogi state.

Why didn't Muhammed himself punish the blasphemer if he's in support of the killing? Which powerful prophet needs someone to fight his fight?

I left Xtianity because I realized it's rubbish.

The entitled punishment for blasphemy in Xtianity as I was forced study by my parents back then is death !!!

anyone who blasphemes the name of the Lord is to be put to death. The entire assembly must stone them. Whether foreigner or native-born, when they blaspheme the Name they are to be put to death.

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable. By John Kennedy.

Obviously Garba is not a student of Politics, in Politics no permanent friend or Permanent enemy but Permanent interest. With this write up he has thrown Buhari under the carpet by saying PYO was acting against Buhari incompetence. He has succeeded in betraying Buhari himself . And come to think of it is APC not a betrayal as a party? They betrayed the trust we gave them in 2015.

Reno should name any achievements of all the vice Presidents in Nigeria since the inception of our democracy and I'll give him 2000 dollars.

Are you more popular than Tiwa Savage? If Tiwa sex tap could be release and she didn't get depressed who are you to fall for such ? Let him release it and everyone will rest , stop making this people important! If you call off their bluff then they'll be out of market and look for something reasonable to do rather than blackmailing people.

With the way things are in the country one would imagine how patriotic Nigerians are . With the level of insecurity, poverty, tribalism, unemployment just to name few! And one is face with the option of either burn a Nigerian flag and get a bag of rice, I doubt if out of hundred you'll get a single person who'd prefer to keep the Nigerian flag and forgo a bag of rice. The house I'm putting it to you 'which would you keep, a bag of rice or to burn a Nigerian flag' ?
