Well done to the NDLEA law enforcement unit. The usual suspect mastermind brought in his Mexican collaborator to manufacture their Meth poison. The locals will think the paraphernalia being used in the nefarious activity is for a factory, not knowing they are manufacturing their illicit drugs.
Once again,well done to the NDLEA. It is high time the legislature passes a law that punishes drug peddling with the death penalty!!!
ariesbull: Nigeria's democracy is strongest when every major component of the federation feels a sense of belonging and inclusion. Since the return to democratic rule in 1999, the presidency has been occupied by leaders from different regions of the country. The South-West has produced a president, the North-West has produced presidents, and the South-South has also occupied the highest office. Yet, the South-East remains the only major geopolitical zone that has not had the opportunity to produce a democratically elected president in the Fourth Republic.
Giving the Igbo a chance at the presidency should not merely be viewed as an ethnic concession; it should be seen as a commitment to fairness, national unity, and the principles of federal character upon which Nigeria was founded. A nation thrives when all groups believe they have an equal stake in its future.
Beyond the argument of equity, the South-East has consistently demonstrated remarkable entrepreneurial capacity, resilience, innovation, and commitment to economic development. Across Nigeria, Igbo entrepreneurs have built businesses, created jobs, and contributed significantly to commerce, manufacturing, and trade. The region has produced numerous professionals, academics, technocrats, and business leaders who have excelled both within Nigeria and internationally.
The question before Nigerians should not be, "Where is the candidate from?" but rather, "Who has the competence, vision, integrity, and capacity to lead?" Modern nations progress when merit takes precedence over ethnic considerations. Countries that have achieved sustainable development did so by prioritizing leadership quality over tribal, religious, or regional sentiments.
Nigeria has paid a heavy price for politics driven by ethnicity, nepotism, and sectional interests. Tribalism has often divided citizens, weakened national cohesion, and distracted the country from addressing pressing challenges such as insecurity, unemployment, poverty, infrastructure deficits, and economic growth. The future of Nigeria depends on moving beyond these divisions and embracing a culture where leadership is earned through performance and ability.
The South-East has produced individuals with proven records in governance, business, public administration, academia, and industry. Therefore, Nigerians should evaluate candidates from the region with an open mind and on the basis of their ideas, competence, and track records rather than ethnic stereotypes or historical prejudices.
Giving an Igbo candidate a fair opportunity to contest and potentially lead the nation would send a powerful message that Nigeria belongs to all its citizens. It would strengthen national integration, deepen democratic participation, and reinforce the belief that every Nigerian, regardless of ethnic background, can aspire to the highest office in the land.
Ultimately, the call is not for Nigerians to support a candidate simply because he or she is Igbo. Rather, it is a call to reject tribalism and nepotism, embrace meritocracy, and judge every candidate by their vision, competence, character, and ability to deliver results. A united and prosperous Nigeria can only emerge when citizens place national interest above ethnic loyalties and choose leaders based on what they can achieve for the country as a whole.
A poorly written original post full of contradictions and based on emotional tribalism. Nobody hands presidential power to anybody based on emotions or where you come from. You build bridges across all the political and geographical zones of the country. Based on this adult voters will cast their vote for their preferred candidate. Unfortunately the Ibo as represented by Peter Obi have failed to do this,rather they have resorted to bullying and abuse as a means to attain political power. It is not going to work in present day Nigeria.
CharlesCNG: When the Bully Starts Crying: The Obidient Problem.
One of the most revealing things about the Obidient movement is not only what it says, but how it behaves. It is loud when attacking others, but fragile when the same fire is returned. That contradiction is not accidental. It is the psychology of a confused bully-mob.
A normal political movement accepts scrutiny as part of democracy. A bully-mob accepts scrutiny only when it is directed at others. Once attention turns toward its own camp, it begins to squeal about persecution, bias, and unfairness. That is why Obidients can spend months mocking Tinubu, Atiku, Soludo, APC, ADC, NDC, and almost anybody who disagrees with them, yet suddenly become emotional when Peter Obi receives sharp criticism in return. What changed? Nothing — except the direction of the cannon.
That is how mob bullies behave. They do not really believe in free speech, robust debate, or scrutiny as a principle. What they want is a monopoly of aggression. [/i]They want to throw stones without hearing the sound of broken glass behind them. They want the right to mock, insult, and pressure everybody else, but they do not want anybody else to answer in the same language. [i]So they keep trying to occupy two opposite moral positions at once: fearsome aggressor on Monday, helpless victim by Tuesday.
That is why their politics often looks confused. Yesterday, negative attention to Tinubu meant accountability. Today, negative attention to Obi means obsession. Yesterday, sharp criticism was civic courage. Today, it is “too much focus” on a private citizen.
The deeper danger is that this behaviour produces political delusion. Once a movement begins to romanticize all criticism as proof of secret strength, it loses the ability to self-correct. Instead of asking, “Why are people pushing back against us?” it begins to flatter itself with fantasies: “We are too important. They are afraid of us. The attacks prove we already won.”
That is how movements detach from reality. They stop studying voters and begin studying enemies. They stop building persuasion and begin rehearsing victimhood.
In the end, a bully-mob is always shocked by resistance because it mistakes its own noise for moral superiority. But noise is not virtue. Aggression is not argument. And mob energy is not leadership. The Obidient problem, therefore, is not merely that they are loud. It is that they are loud without symmetry — eager to dish out scrutiny, but unable to digest it when it returns.
The weak,feeble responses of the usual suspects to this logical original post only serves as an emphasis of the truth therein.
The way the usual suspects flip flop and change the rules as the game proceeds is an act that needs to be studied.
The same people who stated categorically that Nigeria will BURN if Nnamdi Kanu is jailed to flip flop and start claiming that Nnamdi Kanu is having the time of his life in Sokoto prison shows the manipulative and self delusional nature of these characters.
These same group claimed Simon Ekpa could NEVER be jailed because he is a Finnish citizen. The terrorist is now convicted and serving jail time in a prison cell in Finland for terrorism.
The level of cognitive dissonance and self delusion is an art that requires studying. How a rational human being can delude him/her self that confinement to a jail cell for life is equivalent to living a VIP treatment just makes the mind boggle.
Just shaking my head at some comments from the usual suspects. Supporting quackery and fraud just because the evil perpetrator bears a name from your tribal enclave.
The government needs to stop pussy footing with this guy and get him incarcerated. Even Saudi Arabia has deported him from their shores severally for links to terrorism. He is a covert terrorist and a confirmed overt enabler of terrorism. All the terrorism activities in the North have his odious hands in there somewhere. In my estimation the only good terrorist,is a dead one.
Prostitution and drugs should be 100% legal What an adult choose to do with his body or her body should not be anyone’s business
This is 2026 for ffs
Quoted for future reference. Just imagine what a purported rational human being sat down,typed,and posted on a public forum. This group of people never see anything wrong in the numerous vices commited by their people because of rabid tribalism. They live by the twisted thought process,that WHATEVER my people do,it,is always RIGHT!
Nothing can ever satisfy the children of rebellion. Even if Mr Presidents builds gazillions of fly overs in their habitat,they will still complain and say that Peter Obi's 8 disastrous years as governor of Anambra state was better. Anybody trying to help these people is their enemy and they will ultimately throw the person under the bus except the person is from their tribe!
As this set of criminals are being repatriated back to Nigeria to finish their jail terms, others are stubbornly busy back in their 2"×2" shops, measuring more drugs on tripple beam scales for export to Ethiopia. They will never learn!

ALL the journalists that worked in weekly magazines/journals like TELL,THE NEWS,and TEMPO deserve national honours for contributing to the exit of the military from governance. So many of them were jailed and hounded by the military for publishing the truth in those days. So many young people are ignorant of the events of those days because history is not taught in schools. These guys risked their lives. Many of them were roped into phantom coups just for doing their jobs as journalists. And they did these things WITHOUT the Internet! I perused that list and I am surprised that names of people like Colonel Dangiwa Umar and Doctor Beko Ransome Kuti,Moshood Fayemiwo,Ms Ibim Semenitari,and Mrs Chris Anyanwu are not on that list. Maybe the Presidency will include their names next year.
Any rules broken?😂 Attention seeking APC-loafers.😁 Always running to moderators for relevance. Please, go to other threads. Nonsense!
Why do Obidients have persecution complex? Anyone pointing out your hypocrisy is automatically an APC supporter? This is why Seriake Dickson was very clever and tactical in his dealings with Peter Obi and Obidients. He quickly learned from history. He saw how Obi and his hordes,hijacked the structure of Labour Party from Julius Abure and Papa Lamidi Apapa and turned the whole place into a cacophony of madness. Mr Dickson is a very cerebral person and used his tongue to count his teeth. He has made sure no person becomes bigger than him in his OWN political party. When Obi loses in 2027 and migrates to another political party as usual,Dickson has made sure there will be no scorched earth policy by Obidients. You will leave the party empty as you came,but the party remains intact for the Kwankwaso-Dickson ticket in 2031.
Now that is the real Muche...che...che..che!!! Obi has been played,politically.
Kanwulia: I can only change moniker if your spam bot moderators interferes with my posts.
Whether Obi wins or loses. . . .my retirement benefits are solid. You will not see me or Obi queuing for “semovita”!😍
Till then, let us keep catching cruise.
On the stolen mandate we shall cruise!
Muchechechecheche!
E dey pain you? De wor- wor village square!😜
What a n-t job! Like I said you can only fool the newbies. Some of us know you in-to-to. Your antecedents preceed you. After 2027 presidential elections,you will as usual assume a new caricature. Muche...che...che!!!
Kanwulia: I can change my mind ANY TIME!😎 It is mine!
Thanks for educating NL that I am not a weakling that can be owned or intimidated by on or offline de wor-wors!
Come fly with me. Still gainfully employed with APC DEMONIC sponsorship.
Obidient till I get a better option.
I WILL CHANGE MY MIND THEN!
My $&$$$$ goes to OBI!😎😎😎😎😎
Muche...che...che... If you change your mind in an erratic manner,do you need to change infinite monikers?? Like I said you will certainly change this Kanwulia moniker after Obi loses woefully in 2027. You are now an obidient?? Lol. You can only fool newbies on these threads. The old hands know your antecedents when you were regularly fighting over men and writing erotica on this same Nairaland.com. Like I said you can only fool the newbies here because your antecedents preceed you.
Kanwulia,alias Almondjoy,alias Blazay,alias Lasinoh,alias Bootyonme,alias Gambrosia,alias Calottidehalotti,alias Militia,alias Jellitia spamming her own thread by herself. Like a chameleon she changes her monikers as regularly as she has mind shifts. She is currently an Obidient. Who knows what masquerade she will become after the 2027 election when Obi losses comprehensively as he surely will. Much screws loose somewhere. Muche....che...che...che!!! What a n-t job!
It's irritating that Nigeria failed to qualify from a world cup qualifying group that was won by this very poor South African team. South Africa is all over the place in this game with Mexico.
A closer look at the video raises serious questions. Between 0:07 and 0:12, a voice believed to be that of an officer can be heard saying, "I am videoing sir," "I am videoing" despite being in what appears to be an active rescue scene. Was this a genuine operation or a carefully staged recording? The footage deserves independent scrutiny.
Some of you,need to eliminate negativity and toxicity from your minds and hearts. I am no friend or admirer of Nigeria security agencies,but when they do a good job,learn to give them their flowers!
Thanks so much to the gallant and patriotic soldiers of the Nigeria Army. The government needs to stop handling insurgency,terrorism and kidnapping with kid gloves. Embark on a full scale war on banditry,terrorism and kidnapping. Authorise the summary execution for any subversive activity such as terrorism,banditry,insurgency and kidnapping through special anti terrorism tribunals. The only good terrorist is a dead one! Capital punishment to all terrorists,kidnappers and subversive elements immediately they are apprehended.
Just see Kanwulia alias Almondjoy alias Calottithehalloti,alias Blazay,alias Bootyonme,alias Militia,alias Jellitia,alias Gambrosia alias Lasinoh opening a thread and talking to herself. We know your modus operandi very well in the Romance section back in the day. You can only deceive new members of the forum. After 2027 you will resurrect yourself under a new moniker. Muche....che....che....
All Nigerians are losers in the alarming waves of insecurity washing over the country. The government needs to stop handling the issue of organised terrorism in any form with kid gloves. Laws should be followed to the letter. Terrorists,kidnappers,murderers,and all purveyors of similar atrocities must face capital punishment with no exceptions. In my opinion the only good Terrorist is a dead one.
