Papichulostunne: politiking at work.. The judge is one lousy judge. Even hushpuppi didnt get life. Neither would abba kyari nor any other politician.. Thus this is pure wickedness
Lemme try and explain the law around armed robbery to you. The penalty for robbery is 5-25years depending on its degree....but armed robbery is either life in jail or death depending on degree also. Robbery is stealing without a deadly weapon....eg pick pocket, breaking and entering, bulgary, etc all these you get less than 10yrs in jail....but if during the commission of the robbery you injured someone, you get 10yrs+.....if you kill its 25yrs+ could even be life in jail.
But armed robbery is stealing with a weapon dat can kill. If you have anything dat can kill with you while stealing it becomes armed robbery....even if the weapon is a nail, blade, knife, axe, gun etc....for that you get life in jail no questions asked....if you happen to kill or injure anybody during the commission of the crime....you get death straight.
That's the law.
Offenses that can get you life imprisonment or death in Nigeria are the following; Armed robbery (regardless of weapon used) Treason (coup plotting) Kidnapping Terrorism Etc
Devil1Messenger: This is pure madness from the judge There is nowhere in the world that u will give a capital punishment for arm robbery If I'm a lawyer, I will take up that case and use it to gain popularity by making a mockery of the judge and the judgement
ode life imprisonment isnt capital punishment....also you dont have the brain to be a lawyer sef
Simplythebest: It doesn't warrant life imprisonment and i didn't see where the said the use it to cut their victims. Am not making excuses for the robbers but for justice and fair judgment this case doesn't require life imprisonment. Thanks
oga even robbing with razor blade na life imprisoment, when u rob and kill or injure....death penalty
PavillionEnergy: The heading sounds funny and I trust Nairalanders to take a swipe at me. But this has been disturbing me and I want you guys to help me look into this matter.
In 2021, I came across a young lady. She is beautiful and she has the right curves in appropriate dimensions. I liked her instantly. We exchanged contacts and we started talking.
I was very busy with work and we spoke like twice in a week though I used to see her briefly whenever she visits my Uncle's shop.
I later noticed this girl usually hangs out with a lot of guys. All these boys who wear stockings, carry cross-bags, lock their hairs and wear 'oroma' earpods. She is constantly on TikTok and all my 'crush' for her has disappeared.
In April this year, I received a call from her and she told me she went to Abuja for a programme. She said she was stranded and needed some funds to sort out something.
I wired her the money and I relocated from the town in May. I waited till June and she never called to dicsuss the money. I started calling her two weeks ago and she wouldn't pick my calls. After series of unanswered calls, she picked and told me to send my account details.
She did not send the money and has not returned my calls since then.
How do I get the money back?
Send her 10k, so she can load data that she will use to send you the money....idiot
Purple2003: Good morning everyone, Pardon me if I am posting this under the wrong section (this is my first time of posting on this platform).
To the matter.... I need legal & other advice on how to handle a situation that's causing me a lot of mental stress. I loaned 280,000 Naira to my cousin's husband around January for his business. There was no written agreement (I blame myself for this) because I felt it would be awkward to ask a family member to sign papers before I help him. Although I have other proofs like recorded calls and conversations where I asked for my money and he kept on begging for more time. The agreement we had was for him to payback by March. I had plans to purchase a fairly used Keke-napep with this 280k (plus some money I had reserved in my account).
When it was time to pay, I called him a lot to ask for my money. Sometimes, he'll pick and beg for more time. Sometimes, he'll pick and just leave me saying "hello hello hello" without a word from him. Most of the time he won't even pick my calls. He once asked me to send my account number but he didn't send anything (I felt like a joke). This went on from March, April & May. During this period, I had spent, on feeding & other bills, all the money I was supposed to add to the 280k in order to purchase the Keke-napep. This Keke-napep would have generated money for this bills if I had bought it then.
I've been staying at his place since beginning on this month because I don't have any money to fend for myself. When I came here, he told me that his customers promise to send the money before 15th of this month but they didn't. Now he said they promise to send it by the end of this month. All these while I have been patient and tolerant with everything, including the treatment I've been receiving since I came here (I don't even want to go into these treatments). I've been staying indoor since I came here because I don't know anywhere in this area. Just sitting one place and waiting for time to run makes me think about a lot of things and it's depressing.
I can't take this anymore. Even if I have a soft spot for family members, I also need to think of myself by taking necessary measures to get my money back before they ruin my plan of purchasing something that will help me survive daily. I need advice, please
Carry their property that is worth that amount, sell it and cut them off your life, both the cousin and her useless husband
The commissioner is correct tho, if teachers could be behaving like animals and can't be orderly in manner.....then why will student listen to dem. Ordinary to write exams, dem dey rush to enter the hall smh

A Fuel Attendant has allegedly been shot dead by a soldier duing a scuffle in Minna, the Niger State capital.
The Incident happened at Shafa filling station located near Obasanjo Complex on Monday, June 20.
According to a Facebook user, Mohammed Usman, the soldier shot the attendant after the deceased allegedly threatened him with a cutlass.
"It was reported that the soldier had a spat with the fuel attendant which escalated to a fight with the Fuel Station Manager, that resulted in them exchanging slaps," Usman narrated.
"Angered by the soldier's behavior, the young fuel attendant slapped him and threatened him with his cutlass. The soldier pulled out his gun and shot the fuel attendant, who was rushed to the hospital. Subsequently, were were informed that the Fuel Station had been closed down." he added.
Abdulkareem, an eyewitness, who spoke to Punch , said the soldier was engaged in a scuffle with the fuel station manager which led to both parties slapping each other.
"The soldier and the manager were having a misunderstanding. Though I don’t know who slapped first but they both slapped each other and people started trying to intervene,” Abdulkareem said.
He also said that as a result of the scuffle, one of the station attendants, who was said to be the brother of the manager, brought out a cutlass and stabbed the soldier who in turn shot him.
"As people were trying to settle the misunderstanding, one of the attendants, who is the younger brother of the manager, came to support his brother in the fight by bringing out a cutlass and stabbing the soldier”.
He added that the soldier in turn brought out his gun and shot the boy who was then rushed to the hospital.
Another eyewitness said the boy didn’t stab the soldier but brought out his cutlass to threaten him before the soldier pulled out his gun and shot the boy.
He added that the boy did not make it to the hospital as he died before they got to the general hospital.
lordsniel: Good day fellow nairalanders, I was robbed yesterday on the rail track of AGEGE around 8pm when crossing to get oshodi bus, As I was crossing I just saw like 6 guys round me up in that very busy place,one of them asked owo AGEGE wa da (where is the money for I am alighting at AGEGE) immediately I gave him #100 and he said owo wa ko Lele Yi( This is not our money) as I was trying to bring #500 inside my pocket immediately another took my handsfree off my ear and after dropping the second money I just maneuvered and that was how I escaped, I saw plenty other people been extorted like that too. I didn't bother to struggle with them because I have heard several people spoke of that same experience and I know of a mechanic guy killed last year because he was struggling with them, they stabbed him with aboki sucker.. This is rampant everywhere in AGEGE and the police refuse to do anything because I heard from an unverified source that they take returns from them. Pls let's all be careful when we move around at night because boys are not smiling and I am using this as a comfronter to @POLICENG to show the masses that they aren't in support of this by carrying out raids under the long bridge in AGEGE especially the rail tracks because all these guys are having a free show there always
Don't worry your next president will eradicate that....you pay for every street you walk into....we must have sense in this country by force
DOWN2HeartLoved: I usually come to nairaland to get advice on business or any other related stuffs am affected with
Currently am in a tight spot, have been dating a lady I met during a trip, after a month, we started chatting and I went to visit her, things were smooth until we have a child, now she's different
The thing am surprised about her is I don't know her family background, only believed what she told me, she's from Auchi and Orogun and the mother lives in Ondo, we have issues I had to move out of my own house for her, the problem is I'm thinking she has children outside, she's always 28 every year, am thinking she's close to 40, why lie about age and many more.
Reasons am baffled, her mother isn't showing any concern.
She has lots of brothers
She always calls me a small boy
She doesn't even care now, even if I die
Problems:- I have invested on this relationship emotionally, physically and even more,
Is she from Benin? She lied too, she has turned my people against me, right now no one reason me seriously again, because everyone is telling me she's a club girl and I need to leave her, she just laughs and blocks anytime I called her, people are telling me she might have built a house with my money elsewhere.
Am shocked this is happening to me.
Use 1m beg her.....useless boy, cut that thing you call diccck you don't deserve to be called a man....nonsense, see the rubbish this one is typing in public
Muchmore024: I've been aware of BTC since 2017. I've never put any money into it or any other cryptocurrency. I exclusively use it to receive payment from my clients in the US. I use it for deposits and withdrawals as a forex trader. Prior to the start of this bear, when the price was 31k. As usual, I received a payment. So I forgot about the money in my trust wallet, which I was supposed to covert to USDT, but I didn't. The present price comes as a shock to me. From $31k to $19k. The thing dey pain me as I need the money now. And I can't withdraw it as the loss will be too much. I don't even know where to get money to complete what I'm supposed to use the money for. God go send me helper as usual sha
Distressed224: Good morning guys. I found myself in a very unpleasant situation & I'm not sure I'll be able to come out fighting. My Fiancee had an emergency cataract surgery & I wasn't really buoyant since I just renewed our rent. I got a text from a certain CASHBUS app about a loan & out of curiosity downloaded to see their rates & all. Next thing I was credited without even requesting with ridiculous rates. #13000 to pay #20000 in 7 days. Funniest thing is I didn't get the money that day so I felt it was a scam or fluke. Only to wake up to text messages the next day that I had been credited 13k twice to pay back 40k all within 7days. How?? I've been at it with them but they planned it perfectly from the start. Its the new scam in town. Now they're at going for my jugular by defaming me completely. I'm a very private person but these people have been tarnishing my image so much that my contacts are beginning to actually distance themselves from me. I feel worthless & the fact that I have no one to help just makes me feel like ending it all. The embarrassment is too much. Please I need help. How can I stand up to them?
Wait you think say na una last born you dey follow talk? You download app, registered, entered your account number and you're here saying your didn't know how it happened....so how dem take sabi your account number na....you're a werey

Pandemonium broke out in the Badagrybarea of Lagos state today June 15 when an American lady who was allegedly hypnotised by a suspected Yahoo boy came back to her senses.
According to residents in the area, the lady said she arrived Nigeria from California three days ago and has been in the house of the yet to be identified boy.
Trouble broke out this morning when she regained her consciousness and demanded how and why she was in his house. Neighbors got involved, separated them and then took them to the Bailey, the community leader for further interrogation.
The state police command is yet to react to this development.
Righteousness2: This is Prophetic and Historic at the same time. For the First time , Israel is becoming a Major player and ally to Europe. One they can no longer underestimate and come against at every given opportunity.
Israel is officially becoming the Substitute for Russia in Gas export to Europe. Russia understands this! Russia does not like this! Gas and oil is the number 1 source of income to the Russian Federation.
Watch out Folks! The Prophet Ezekiel Prophecied over 2500 yrs ago, in Ezekiel 38 & 39 that in the last days, Israel will be Invaded for its Spoils! For its goodies! For its resources! In what the Bible calls " The GogMagog" Invasion! Ladies and Gentlemen, behold Bible Prophecies taking shape before us
The Countdown towards the Russia ( Gog Magog) Invasion of Israel officially begins today!!
If you yet to come into a Genuie and solid relationship with JESUS Christ, you are in a mess! You need to buckle up and run to JESUS Christ as we are living in the Last of the Last Moments. The Rapture can Happen anyday, anymoment now! JESUS Christ is Coming Quickly ! Be Ready ooooo
