OLAADEGBU:
President Trump warned the Nigerian Government that he’d impose sanctions and take military action if it didn’t do more to protect persecuted Christians there. Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts believes Christians are encouraged by the President’s tough stance. What more needs to be done?

Here's what else you'll see tonight:

Tonight: @Heritage President @KevinRobertsTX re: Nigeria Christians. Is @POTUS' threat enough to protect them? @WhatTheHekmat betrayed by al-Sharaa's Oval Office visit; @AlexMcFarland re: political Islam rising; 50 years after the Edmund Fitz.

All sponsors are in panic mode. The sultan and his Emirs 📌💯

Pounding wey no get part two
Omonile of FCT go collect wetin no good

We all paid for the refinery he is claiming as his own. Our naira loss of value was the price we all had to pay for one man and his cronies in govt to make a fortune

Abi removal of subsidy

Sonnobax15:

No sanctions...

I love the fact that Wike is yet to wake up from his slumber and start realizing that true true someone has broken the jinx and more of such scenarios are yet to come to him

Omonile of FCT

Racoon:
The police can never win any armed confrontation with the army. This is why it is not classified as part of the Nigerian military. So you better know your limits.

But they are part of the armed forces of Nigeria.

Omonile of FCT has been put in his place

TONYE001:
I assure you that there's a lot of background stuff in this story, and you and I aren't privy to it.

Wike is known to NEVER respect the rule of law. He shouldn't be talking about law like he's a saint. The military, in fact, even the presidency doesn't respect our courts/laws.

It's just sad that we find ourselves in this kind of situation.

But Wike didn't handle the situation well
His conduct was agbero-like. His verbal assault was disgraceful, and he can be sued.

From the video we've all seen, we didn't see any soldier hit or beat anyone. It's Wike's testimony vs the soldier's.

Available video evidence doesn't put Wike in good light.

I don't know anything about the papers of the land. We've seen some documents published yesterday. But we've also seen several land-grabbing reports concerning Wike. VDM did a video about this some time ago.

In summary, this is Nigeria. Our leaders don't respect the rule of law. In fact, the Law appears to be only for the poor.

We can all do better.

zeuss:
only a certain group act with this sort of impunity and defend it. Obj a retired general , military head of state and democratic president does not conduct himself in this manner , he even begged wike to assist him with land issues. Same applies to pioneer retired general Theophilus danjuma also I can tell u with all confidence that a young southern or Christian officer will never challenge a serving minister. Impunity is detrimental to progressive society

Wike cant use force, theres a appropriate channel for that. Omonile of FCT has been put in his place

Emperor wicked Wike is now the chief wailing wailers 😅😂🤣. A line was drawn for the emperor and his entourage not to pass. There are levels to things 🤣😂😅💩📌💯

Wailing wailers, you want to revoke his property and give to another person. Omorr, na fight to death

Emperor Wicked Wike in the mud

One of the statements made by Lieutenant Yarima while he was defending his actions of blocking Wike the FCT Minister from access to a property was "once a General, always a General'.

I have done my private research by combing through the Armed Forces Act which established all branches of the Nigerian Armed forces, as well as the Nigerian Constitution which provides their foundational legal authority, and I have seen nothing supporting this frequently bandied assertion that "once a General, always a General'...

If anyone has any legal provision supporting this assertion, please do well to draw it to our attention ...If there is none, then we must call a spade a spade and not a spoon...

As far as I am aware, even the President/Commander-in-Chief, once he leaves office, is not "once a Commander-in-Chief always a Commander-in-Chief' ....All Nigerian Presidents have quietly retired...Even Buhari with all the power he wielded as President, quietly retired to Daura to rest and enjoy his family until he quietly passed on...Even Obasanjo that was both a Military and Democratic President, has never been in the news for constituting a stumbling block to extant authority...

So I am at a loss as to why, someone who has retired from the armed forces as Chief of Naval Staff, will continue giving orders to active members of the armed forces even to the extent of frustrating a sitting Minister's duty...

Of Course I am also aware that senior officers and ex-officers like Buratai and the current CDS have aligned with that Lieutenant's action obeying a retired officer's orders at the expense of an sitting Minister..

But as far as I am concerned, Buratai and the current CDS are simply supporting a system that favors or will favor them in the future... Buratai as EX-COAS enjoys his full perks of retirement which obviously includes the "once a General, always a General' title which grants him certain extra privileges...The sitting CDS is also very aware that he will also retire at some point in the future, so he will be wise to protect that whole "once a General always a General' thing so that he too can enjoy it upon retirement..

However, while in one breath we are berating Wike for lawlessness and abuse of office, we should not in same breath support this whole "once a General always a General' thing if it has no legal foundation, as it will be the height of lawlessness if a few men can sit somewhere and decide that they can drop a uniform and the responsibility/danger/duty that comes with it, but not drop the command benefits and ostensibly illegal perks that go with it...

If we must crucify Wike, we must also examine that retired CNS's authority to issue an order to countermand a sitting Minister...What is good for Greece must also be good for Uganda

After all said and done, these soldiers are employees of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and must like everyone else, be subject to its laws...Even a President isn't always a President issuing laws and stuff after retirement...

Of course all my complains will be moot if someone supplies a law supporting that "once a General always a General' tradition that military retirees frequently rely on to perpetrate impunity outside their service years.

Retirement package, Military guards, Care by military, official Rifle. If you see a Hilux or SUV with military soldier driving it, don't engage oOoOO, na demmm

BodyCount:
Wike too dey overdo
But, none the less,
THOSE SOLDIERS JUST MISUSE AND THEIR PRIVILEGES AND ACT WITH IMPUNITY.


What's supposed to be the business of soldier mounting a piece of land to do security guard.

THE OLO RIBURU KU BOY WAS EVEN SAYING
"I'M TALKING AND POLICE PEOPLE ARE TALKING"


As if he's superior and senior to every other security officials, just because he is in the military.

Naijalegal:
So You Want a Divorce? Read This Before You Shout “I’m Done!”

A lot of people don’t know this — before any Nigerian court grants you a divorce, the judge must be 100% sure that your children’s welfare has been properly provided for.

It’s not just about saying “I’ll take care of them.” You have to prove you’ve made plans for:
Accommodation
Education
Welfare & Upbringing

Now here’s the gist that shocks many people

If the kids are still small, the court usually gives custody to the mother — except there’s something serious like:

Insanity

Child cruelty

Infectious disease

Moral misconduct

Or no means of income

But gender also matters o!
Girl child? Most likely with the mother.
Boy child? Most likely with the father.

Still, the mother can argue that staying with the father isn’t in the boy’s best interest — for example, if the new stepmother might mistreat him.

At the end of the day, the court looks at the conduct of both parents.
If Daddy is known for beating the kids too hard — custody denied.
If Mummy is known for prostitution — custody denied.

Bottom line?
There’s no law in Nigeria that says only mothers or fathers can get custody.
Both parents have equal rights — unless there’s a strong reason not to.

And oh — once a child is over 21, forget custody. The law says they’re grown.

What do you think? Should custody decisions really depend on the child’s gender? Or should it always go to whoever can care better — man or woman?[b][/b]

Also, the divorce process takes almost forever 😥😥😥.
