Politics › Re: 2027: D-day for opposition as Supreme Court hears ADC, PDP appeals by Helpfromabove1(m): 9:33am On Apr 22
Today is Nigeria political champion league final


My prediction APC will lose

It’s better for them to lose the battle and win the war

Because if they win today they might lose the war

Wike will certainly win has always

APC will be too blinded to want to David mark ADC to loose , let them win the battle and loose the war

Already ADC primaries might be a big decider of the future of ADC

Will Atiku step down

Will Ameachii step down

How far can OK movement go

Properties › Re: Water Tank Stand Collapses Overnight In Lagos, Destroys Tenant’s Lexus(video) by Helpfromabove1(m): 8:07pm On Apr 11
Mamaafrik1:
The tenant may have the right to take legal action, depending on the details.

Here’s how it generally works

⚖️ 1. Duty of Care by the Landlord
In places like Lagos, landlords have a legal duty to maintain the property in a safe condition. This includes:

Proper installation of heavy structures (like water tanks and scaffolding)

Regular inspection and maintenance

Fixing hazards that could foreseeably cause harm

If that scaffolding collapsed due to poor construction, rust, overloading, or lack of maintenance, the landlord could be considered negligent.

🚗 2. Damage to Personal Property
The tenant’s car is private property, so if it was damaged because of unsafe conditions on the premises, the tenant can potentially claim:

Cost of repairs or full replacement (if beyond repair)

Compensation for inconvenience or loss of use

🧾 3. What the Tenant Needs to Prove
To succeed legally, the tenant would typically need to show:

The structure was unsafe or defective

The landlord (or their agent) knew or should have known about the risk

The collapse directly caused the damage

Video evidence (like the one he recorded) is actually very helpful.

🏢 4. Possible Legal Actions
The tenant can:

Report the issue and demand compensation from the landlord first

File a civil claim for negligence if the landlord refuses

In serious cases, involve local authorities if the building violates safety regulations

⚠️ 5. Important Note
If the collapse was caused by something completely unexpected (like extreme weather or third-party interference), liability might be less clear. But structural failure of something like a water tank platform usually points toward maintenance or design issues.
This case is a very tricky case

U said the tenant needs to prove


The structure was unsafe or defective

This can be very tricky because if he knows the water tank is defective and he still go ahead and pack his car beside it , then it can be said to be negligent on the part of the tenant to pack your car beside a water tank you clearly know is defective and can fall


And to prove that the fall was due to defective and poor maintenance after the fall might not be that easy to prove and tenable by just a layman most especially if the water tank has been standing intact for awhile or years

Health › Re: Things Found While Washing A Water Tank In Lekki, Lagos by Helpfromabove1(m): 1:33pm On Mar 17
The lekki awolowo was talking about is now the now Lekki phase one that everyone knows

Awolowo was talking about the original Lekki town that is after Dangote refinery around folu in ibeju Lekki that is the original Lekki not the sand field estate call Lekki phase one ( then its was called Maroko )

SixSeven:
"On June 19, 1962, I was moved from Ikenne to Lekki. The journey to Lekki was an experience in itself. Lekki was a remote, waterlogged village, almost cut off from the rest of the world. To get there, one had to travel by canoe through mosquito-infested marshes.

The government’s intention was clear: to isolate me and make it as difficult as possible for my supporters to reach me. They chose a place that was physically taxing and geographically secluded.

However, the spirit of the people could not be broken. Despite the treacherous waters and the distance, hundreds of my supporters—men and women—found their way to Lekki. They came in canoes, often singing party songs that echoed across the lagoons. Their presence was a source of great strength to me during those sixteen days of restriction.

The bungalow where I was kept was modest, and the environment was harsh, but it provided a period of intense reflection. I spent my time reading, writing, and contemplating the future of our great nation. It was in these quiet, difficult moments at Lekki that my resolve to serve Nigeria was further tempered."

Don’t be too fast to conclude second leg will be the decider

All of them played away except Newcastle

Liverpool and Arsenal certainly have a chance to qualify and if Barca fails to make use of home advantage Newcastle can send them home and who knows man city Chelsea and spurs can do the difficult but not impossible task

Crime › Re: When You Get Arrested By The Police For Owing Someone Money by Helpfromabove1(m):
This is normally a civil case but can easily become otherwise if other factors arise or present and am not in-support of the nonsense up there

When you are looking for the money u are pleading and begging and now is time to pay back you know want pay claiming it a civil case the thunder wey go fire you still they do rehearsal


Now back to the factors that can change it from civil cases

One , the person (creditor) approached you for his or her money but instead of pleading for mercy and more time but you used to start shouting and threatening the person that you would deal with him and not you will show him Pepper. The case as more from just debt to threats to life and threats of life is not a civil case but a serious crime in Nigeria, punishable under the Criminal Code Act (Section 323) with up to 7 years imprisonment for written threats to murder
Politics › Re: FEC Approves Demolition, Reconstruction Of Lagos’ Carter Bridge by Helpfromabove1(m): 7:40pm On Mar 05
Thanks for this mature and decent response

grandstar:
All nations are faced with the economic curse: unlimited wants, limited rwsources.

Due to this, there is a scale of preference.

The present government has a scale of preference, where it believe it will produce more bang for its buck. Its seems to be infrastracture. This will indirectly provide revenue through the economic activity that is used for.

For electricity, the government is actially upgrading transmission capacity as the present capacity isnt able to carry all the power produced by the Gencos to the Discos.

In addirion, subsidized electricity is a big burden
I think the Gencos are being owed around 4tr because of it. The government is wotking hard to clear this debt.

Were Tinubu to win re-election, he would end all subsidies and all users would be places on Band A.

Healthcare seems to have taken a backseat.

Security too is a serious challenge but fighting wars is a very expensive activity and the money isnt there.
