XXXXTENTACION:
And that includes cutting off his hands

wow so you will sit down and watch while your brother's hand is being cut-off because he stole peanuts right

He stole peanuts using violence... In the course of which he killed or maimed someone, or even raped someone's wife, daughter, mother, girlfriend, etc in their presence? Did you even read the original post or you just prefer to be incredibly stupid?

If your poverty is pushing you to join an armed robbery or other VIOLENT crime gang, just get ready. Since you want to be mad.

Go and learn yahoo or whatever like your mates if you're a poor wretch destined for a life on the fast lane. If you're looking for whose girlfriend or wife to rape and kill in the name of armed robbery, you wouldn't survive it for long. Anuofia.

Honeysweetest:
how are u sure is a mere accusations? because she withdraw the case?because there is no evidence?don't pretend blind to how our judicial system works,there are no evidence to lots of crime committed in this country,but it doesn't mean the crime did not take place.

If there is no evidence then there is no crime! This is very important because if you allow any idiot without evidence to make an allegation, then numerous malicious idiots would make false allegations to ruin an innocent person. That will be the worst form of injustice... To be punished and have your life destroyed based on false and unproven allegations. No sane society can allow this kind of thing,

If you don't have evidence, forget it! True or false doesn't concern anybody because you simply can't prove it, so forget it! It's for the greater good, otherwise it will be easy to make false accusations.

There is nothing like repentant violent criminal - whether armed robber, kidnapper or terrorist. Doesn't make sense. Would the 'repentance' bring back the people the bastards murdered in cold blood? Would it 'unrape' the wife or daughter he raped in one's presence, or the untold horrors and traumas he caused people?

Any bastard who was an armed robber, violent cultist and so forth who now claims to have repented and is a pastor or whatever is mad. I will personally kill that bastard. Not to talk about terrorists and mass murderers like BH members. They all deserve nothing but DEATH. Let God who created such animals forgive them. Not me.

No make me vex abeg. This Buhari regime is a plague that would twk Nigeria decades to recover from.

Xisnin:
You are right about her and her lawyer being foolish.

There was no settlement.
She can't afford a lawsuit and the police won't charge Dbanj because
there is no evidence aside from what she says.
No one will testify on her behalf for fear of backlash.
Her lawyer advised she withdraw the case to save herself from a ruinous lawsuit.
Unfortunately, her dumb lawyer did not get anything in return for the withdrawal.

Which makes her very stupid to come out in public to ruin a public figure's reputation when she knows she has zero evidence. Who does that?

I'll make sure she goes to jail or her family goes bankrupt if I was in Dbanj's shoes. There's nothing in the world I hate more than accusations that only depend on 'Na me talk am'. As who? Why should your word be taken as ultimate truth? No evidence nothing.

If you know you can't prove an allegation, shut up and die with it, rather than come public and ridicule yourself.

Rubbish.

Fake story. The last Nigerian girl like this, na me quickly kolombi am put for my corner, so where you see this one?

Lie lie Nairaland people.

MisterFelix1:
Make we no later hear sey she G.Girl oh!
Shall I fit join sef. It's tempting to join Hushpuppi's colleagues @ hostboz .com sha. E no good but that money eh

Of course she is. No be me go talk am.

Too much iniquity in Nigeria. If the world would ever end, the 'ending' has to start from here. The country stinks. 99%.

Even though I agree that Ngige is a goat in his own right, but this whole glorification of Tinubu by comparison is ridiculous. What has Tinubu done for Ngige? Why do you so arrogantly think Ngige owes Tinubu any respect or loyalty? Whatever slavery Tinubu has ensnared some maggots in Lagos into, na for him pocket.

The ONLY connection between Ngige and Tinubu is that Ngige contested for Senate under the AC in Anambra of all places and WON, lol. To put it in context, it was easier for Ngige to win as an independent (or as a candidate on the ticket of Pastor Okotie's "Fresh' Party), than to win as an AC candidate in ANAMBRA. In other words, his affiliation with the AC, or with Tinubu for that matter, was more of a miscalculation and an albatross than an advantage - as far as contesting an election in Anambra was concerned, so really, what did Ngige gain from Tinubu?

They are contemporaries, and Ngige is right to regard him as such, insofar as Tinubu is not Ngige's benefactor in any way.

IceColdVeins:
when a rich nigga wants ya, and your nigga can't do nuttin for ya, these ho's ain't....................

O tan, lol.

Unfortunately, only foolish men invest their financial futures in women in this way.

I shall never be in their shoes, but if na me, I will surely do the 'needful' if, after all this wahala, one useless cunt decides to be a jezebel. I can't kee myself, but I shall kee the source of my frustration.

Alert me when busty, young, nubile maidens protest topless anywhere in Nigeria, even in Kafanchan. I will generously support their movement. Forget all these shrivelled l, flat-chested rural mamas.

There's really no 'real' tribal hostility in the South and between the constituent parts of the South. Walahi. Forget the fake tribalism on Nairaland or twitter. Asides the equal opportunity criminality that comes with time and chance, and can happen to anyone anywhere, there's nothing fundamentally dangerous for any Igbo person in Ekiti or any Yoruba person in Enugu.. Or any mix in between Asaba, Benin, Calabar, Ibadan, Awka and Port Harcourt.

The only real threat of an ethnic coloration there has ever been and will continue to be is in the core abokki North. Whether your name is Emeka, Tunde, Efosa, or Akpan, if dem born you well, go and serve or settle in Maiduguri or Kano or Katsina.. And come back to tell us about your experience.

I have always canvassed for the Republic of Southern Nigeria, shorn of the abokki savages and parasites. That's the only practicable way forward. Unless you're ready to divide Nigeria into 200 countries.

binghamm:
He isn't good with words. Don't be deceived. This is your usual Nigerian who believes throwing "big" words about should make him sound educated. The words hardly made any sense in the context they were used.

Phoney no doubt. The 'I dashed him N10k' yada yada is a dead giveaway. We 'elders' wey get this kind lifestyle and understanding sef sabi as e dey go.

But we must sha comment because the topic is quite topical, pun unintended.

Franzinni:
And you don't know what situation he was at the point of marriage after all he was on his way back from a job interview or something ... So he is not vision less ...condition and situation happens to the best of us..it is when you are looking up you really see the ugliness of humanity looking down on you... Many mufukas commenting are commenting on a topic they know nothing about they just jerkoff to the thought that it is not them.

Well said.

Shameless man.

harsysky:
Life is a risk. like a reader commented up there, time and chance happen to people whether you choose to up your game or you choose to marry when not buoyant. If I had not seen a poor man who rose to wealth , and a wealthy man who became poor, I would certainly think a man has 100% influence on how their lives go .

The overall advice would be to have a source of income before dabbling into marriage, then get other sources of income to complement whatever cometh. At all times, pray without ceasing because real wealth isn't made, it is inherited from anybody. Take a look at majority of those who are billionaires, you would agree with me that they never believed they would be what they are now. If we all understand the way things work in this world, which isn't possible, we will be able to predict the future.

Is there anyone who is a liability? No. it's a matter of meeting someone whom God has given the ability to unlock that passion in you. I have seen and learned a lot in just a lil amount of time. The most striking knowledge is to never , ever look down on anyone even if they are foolish. Just like the saying, " what doesn't kill one, makes one stronger". I'm stronger for all I have seen and learned. I go all the way opposite of what majority think is best because I have this sole belief that God is both the producer and director of what we are living on here--the earth. A lot of rules here and there to even make one think that following all the rules could make you live longer than Methuselah, but it is all wash.

Enjoy what ever time you have in this world, and never judge those you think you are better than. Never lean on your own understanding.

Reads exactly like what I'd write in my 'inspired' moments.

You're wise my son.

myles16:
So it's where ?? If you don't know road STFU!

I think what he meant is that this spot was popularly called Allen Junction, not roundabout. The 'popular' Allen roundabout is the one connecting Opebi and Toyin Street, which is the haven for ashawos at night.

ikorodureporta:
..but imagine the accident when ppl go dey try to beat traffic for night, like 11pm

This is another thing. Knowing that that area is a night life hub, all the enjoyment people with alcohol in their system racing hole around 1am or 2am, which of them would wait for traffic light?

Accident galore loading.

zoedew:
Needed next is a two level flyover. One from Adeniyi Jones inward Allen. Second from Ikeja inward Secretariat.

This would be the conclusive solution.

This woman gallant abeg. No matter how their matter take end, she don try.

I think it's the other way round actually. Unless you're a genius a highly lucrative endeavour, smart work generally trumps talent.

AverageAnnie:
I pass abeg...Dark guys anytime any day....

So innocent looking small girl like you don sabi wetin dey inside man boxers? Wonders shall never end.

FrLukas:
No he doesn't.

The Judiciary is a totally different and independent arm of government.

Malami works for the Executive arm.

I guess they don't teach that at Law school anymore.

Senior man, no fall hand na. Why you dey hang your tear tear singlet for public yard.

Oyinbo leading the way as usual, while clueless black Africa continues to wallow in the stone age.

quentin06:
Galant men? Not so gallant again, all chopped down like grass.

Their gallantry is overhyped, only gallant when bullying civilians.

The Nigerian military is very useless. Filled with incompetent and unprofessional nincompoops. Their only area of competence is bullying unarmed civilians and engaging soft targets such as IPOB.

Just imagine 18 whole soldiers slaughtered like rats by ordinary criminal ragtags. No where else in the world can that happen. These fools lack sense, training, capacity and ability. Sad really.

If you're wondering why there seems to be shortage of shoemakers, 'obiomas', gworo hawkers, and other abokki artisans and petty traders of late, the reason isn't far fetched. Most abokki youth are now embracing banditry... Especially kidnapping.

At this rate Nigeria would be worse than Somalia, Afghanistan, and Syria combined if we don't wake up. The threat isn't ordinary criminality, because at least Southern criminals have sense. We're dealing with subhuman Fulani animals with zero sense and an abundance of mindless and needless violence. Bastards for whom there is no method to their madness.

Let's forget politics and fleeting personal gain. We have a crisis on our hands.

phineas:
Still no word on this event that happened.I start to wonder how many families have paid ransoms quietly,how many have lost relatives.

What is the National hotline or response numbers for kidnappings

This should not be the new norm.meanwhile the 50 passengers abducted from Ekeson on lokoja Abuja road have still not been returned as at this night day 4.Still no word in the news

Cc seun

Are you following up with this Ekeson matter to be sure none of the passengers has made it out? Besides, was it one of these 'luxurious' long buses that ply Lagos - Abuja night journey? Meaning that the kidnap happened in the wee hours?

More details please.

Abeg make we hear word. The standards for good governance in Nigeria are criminally low. We can like to celebrate nonsense eh. Tueh.

Dasuks:
This is the same thing as complaining that Nigerians dont stay in line or asking why people pay police at roadblocks.

Nigeria like any other country is made up of an aggregate of ppl all making different diverse decisions. Transacting with each other and trying to land a good deal for themselves. Now it is a lie to say that the regular Nigerian is responsible for his predicament without highlighting the personalization of governance and political processes.

The bulk of the country is lower income and many of the subjects u mentioned are barely representative of the country's people. Military fiat rule and corrupt civilian politicking has essentially created an isolated existence for the unprotected. For example, Murtala ruined lives with his brash civil service reforms that ended up incentivising personal welfare over government and public interest on the part of civil servants. That a Jonathan or a Buhari or whomever can retire u maliciously or strip u of particular benefits by legal means or intimidation gets one thinking more personal about the now and their belle. Not their job to dole out permits , execute policy or perform their duties as they should.

This ofc ricochets for the regular man. The ordinary Nigerian who lives within the framework set from above. He is forced to transact on his level with whatever or whomever can protect his welfare, regardless of the secondary impact on his environment. This is just an example. An example that u can extrapolate across the board to every facet of life (military civilian govt- work private-sector private-life school etc).

The theme is set from above. Because esp in our country where consumption and investments are functions of government expenditure and earnings which is ofc driven by net exports of oil, people's actual livelihoods depend on what they can secure for themselves in the economic pie/national cake complex. Those who dont act are left behind in line. Or so it would seem. Even tho ofc that's not true. One can live a good productive life and still be well off. However, emotions and panic usually yield a rather uncouth reaction from most ppl. Whether uncharacteristic or not.

When a president or governor or ranking public servant can act above laws, sit on top systems and dictate in an extralegal and informal manner it transfers down the line. Personal power is a problem in Nigeria and Africa. Because the authority is not held in impersonal institutions where the individual matters less than established procedure.

Taking out examples of malfunction in our daily life without explaining the root cause is too simplistic. Basically reading out domestic iterations of a concept and not defining its roots and sources. Which you have wrongly defined as being situated at the ground level. What emanates from the populace that makes it a source? Is it investable funds almost entirely in the hands of the state and high business or even political choice that is controlled by party bigwigs? Or the frustration and poverty that reeks at the bottom of the ladder is what qualifies it as the 'source'?

Buhari GEJ Obj Ibb Abdulsalami Tinubu Wike etc all of them are the problem. These individuals and many more like them, have abrogated to themselves the destinies of millions by virtue of control of state power. Not any exceptional ability. That's why the country is stagnant. Willful and thoughtful leadership is the real solution.

The problem with this point of view is that it creates artificial distinctions between the 'government' and the people whereas there really isn't a difference, because the government entirely consists of people of same stock and hue. I. E. The people.

The so-called IBB, OBJ, GEJ, Amaechi, etc, that constitute the ruling elite, 99% of them come from humble backgrounds. Many of them were dirt poor idiots who life and its vicissitudes favored. Ordinary people join the elite ranks daily, by virtue of luck, favorable moves, etc. Look at someone like GEJ for instance and analyse his trajectory.

The point is that the ordinary, lowly Nigerian of this moment, once he happens upon some wealth, or power, or influence, is likely to abuse it. This dysfunction, or malaise if you will, in my well-considered opinion, is a bottom-up problem. It doesn't flow from the so-called 'leaders'. Nigeria's problem is a people problem, not a leadership problem contrary to what the likes of Chinua Achebe and yourself would argue.

If we had enough numbers of conscientious and above board ordinary people, Nigeria wouldnt be the shithole it is today. Pure and simple. The leaders aren't aliens. They come from amongst us.

If the present and past crop of political and public office holders are wiped out completely, and replaced with randomly (or even purposively) selected Nigerians picked from common folk, things would remain the same if not worse. The fools would simply see themselves as the next set of people to 'chop' the proverbial National Cake. It would be their 'turn' to be a menace to society. Simply a change of personnel and identities while the flawed system remains unchanged.

The change we all crave will never flow from top to bottom, because even if by some stoke of luck an angel is appointed president, there wouldn't be a critical mass of like-minded and reformist 'enforcers' across the public positions, bureaucracy, and further down to drive the desired change.

There is something fundamental wrong with Nigerians (and by extension, the black man, but that's a matter for another day). And this 'something' afflicts both leaders and followers (who are essentially the same, with merely different social circumstances).

Forget that story. Ask yourself this more important question: If the tables were turned and the Fulani/Hausa core North wants to leave Nigeria today and form their own country, would the South (Igbo/Yoruba/etc) FIGHT a war to prevent them from leaving? ? ? ? Would the South even argue with them or simply wish them 'safe journey'?

This guy man just dey use una catch cruise.

Odidigboigbo:
that serves him right. But will that detered others in the game or willing to join the game? Certainly NO

Lol. The consequences of financial struggle or poverty and the allure of wealth in this part of the world far far far outweighs the deterrence value of this laughable 0.0001% arrest of characters like woodberry and co. Thousands of peeps would join this trade everyday, just how thousands of abokki Fulani bastards would continue joining the violent banditry and kidnapping 'business' daily (and it is sad that the more dangerous kidnapping menace daily perpetrated by these Fulani animals receives less attention than mere Internet fraud).

The bottom line is that You can't deter them by token arrest or imprisonment of a tiny few. You can only disrupt the systems they rely on, to make it harder for multitudes to join the bandwagon.
