PoliticsRe: Dasuki Makes Public Appearance In Court After A While In Detention (Photos) by IME1:
I like this joke

⭕JOKE THAT MAKES SENSE!⭕

An old farmer wrote a letter to his son who is in prison. "Son, this year I will not plant cassava
and yam because I can't dig the field, I know if you were here you would have helped me".

The son replied his father "Dad don't even think of digging the field because that's where I buried the money I stole".

The POLICE & PRISON'S on reading this letter went early in the morning and dug the whole field in search of the money but nothing was found.

The next day the son wrote his father again "Dad you can now plant your cassava and yam this is the best I can do from here."

Dad replied "Hahaaa my son, you are too powerful indeed, even in prison you still command police men to work for me. I was so surprised to see the IGP and his team holding hoes and shovels, digging my farm. I will write to you when I want to harvest."


MORAL LESSON : Nobody can imprison your mind. Don't laugh alone.

Well this is to relax the minds of Dasuki's loved ones, because I don't see this man, Sowore, El Zazaky and Co being free till 2023. I hope I'm wrong for the right reasons

SportsNaomi Osaka Chooses Japan Over USA To Participate At 2020 Olympics by IME1(op): 8:02pm On Oct 10, 2019
Naomi Osaka, the No, 3 ranked female tennis player in the world, has decided she will represent Japan in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo and give up her American citizenship.

According to CNN, Osaka spoke with Japanese public broadcaster NHK about her decision, telling them that it gives her "a special feeling to try to go to the Olympics to represent Japan."

"I think I will be able to put more of my emotion into it by playing for the pride of the country," she continued.

Osaka was born in Japan to a Japanese mother and a Haitian father, and raised in the United States. She currently has dual citizenship with the US and Japan, but Japanese law requires that she choose one or the other by her 22nd birthday. Since Osaka’s 22nd birthday is on Oct. 16, she has to make a choice — and she’s choosing Japan.

Osaka currently resides in the US, and it’s unclear if her citizenship decision will change where she lives or trains.

In August, Osaka was eliminated at the US Open in the Round of 16, a disappointing result that knocked her from the No. 1 ranking down to 4. But since that early round elimination, she has seen nothing but success. She won the Pan Pacific Open in Osaka, Japan, in mid-September, and beat world No. 1 Ashleigh Barty in the final of the China Open last week.

PoliticsThe Independence Day Dinner by IME1(op): 11:23pm On Oct 01, 2019
Please who watched the live broadcast of the Independence Day Dinner held in Abuja by the Buhari led government?

There was a man who gave a long speech, I picked a little bit of what he was saying, he mentioned Genevive and something about wearing Nigerian made prints, and how Singapore without a single oil has more functional refineries than Nigeria, and how he looks forward to Dangote's refinery kick starting. undecided

OK then Otunba Adebayo came for vote of thanks and my mind went to Ureje where the bridge collapsed and I was like... oh my God help us. Then he made some dry non-funny comments about addressing himself as president and vice president and now being reduced back to the unfortunate mere minister that he is. ..

And yes again I couldn't help but remember the millions of times I passed that very Ureje bridge and knowing that it could have been anyone cry

Then the highlight abi highpoint was when VP Osinbajo came to speak.
His mic failed then all he talked about was the casual social laid back mundane inconsequential aspects of Nigeria shocked angry from
Our first bobsleigh team (good)

Anthony Joshua (good) but he didn't mention his defeat instead it was about Aj becoming a model

Then about how our super eagles won best jersey at the last world cup (who dem epp? They were sold for $90 each! who did it benefit if not a foreign company called Nike and it's on line store affiliates! Amazon Ali express and co) and PS we didn't pass the group stage huh

Then he talked about swag, agbada, gbe body, Dino Melaye, Obj, Dangote and Teni and other things!

Nothing about
Infrastructure
Insecurity
Xenophobia
Economy
Corruption
Impunity against court orders
In house party politics crisis

Nothing about-
Electric cars
Buy Nigeria to grow Nigeria
Our technological feats
Academic feats
Research feats
Cultural values
Monuments and landmarks
Heritage and cuisines
Indigenous health care practices
Air Peace man bringing stranded Citizens
End SARS
Our hero's passed
Victims of herdsmen, militants, bandits and kidnappers,
No minutes silence for those killed from fallen system failures in health, armed forces, transports Ecton and rituals.

cry

But he talked about BAAD2017 and YEMI&DOLLY1989
I was waiting to hear Burna Boy on Trevor Noah's show and Tacha in BBN so I'd know we don't go kpatakpata

No life was not

I was on that campus that same 1993 and life was not boring

We didn't have generators or satellite
Just a few had

But we had board games, hand games, road games, house games, super stories, hotel de Jordan, Papi luwe, newsline, mount zion movies, radio stations, cassette players, VCR and so many other things not to mention land line, books, real friends, neighbours and relatives to gist with and banter with.

If you blasted Oby Ezekwesili in the other 3 threads and you cannot say same ugly things to Sanusi, Fayemi and Elrufai, then you are the problem facing Nigeria.

El rufai was even chatting up a lady right there while his people are here blasting Oby grin
I agree with you
Not that I support blasting of anyone
But why single out one woman

I'm not her fan but I had my reservations when I first saw the post of that Bashir person

No matter how crazy the SA people get it can't stop loving me from listening to Mariam Makeba
If she was with us she'd be in Nigeria already (in fact as the first passenger in Air Peace) denying her allegiance and citizenship to the disgraceful majority of SA

Kudos to Air Peace

Meanwhile I blame the Nigerian government 80%
When I was in school like almost all of us we experienced bullying but it was the aid of our parents and senior siblings that made the bullies stop, not them waking up to have pity on us.

Are we leadership less that we had to have suffered this long?

Personally I didn't lose anyone I know in SA but a loss to anyone in Nigeria is a collective loss to everyone

I stand with Air

PoliticsRe: APC NWC FINAL Decisions On Screening Of Kogi Governorship Aspirants by IME1: 11:47am On Aug 28, 2019
undecided this matter was thrashed on journalist hangout yesterday

The people left to compete with Yahaya are not heavy weights and will lose

Dino may not have interest in senate again but he won't want a Smart Adeyemi there or anyone who's not in the same party with him.

While dealing with the issue of his senatorship he may need to put his all in the governorship race

That said,
Dino may not be the answer for Kogi but he seems better than Yahaya
Dino may elevate to start acquiring jets and helicopters
Anyone who knows Lokojo and Okene will know how Yahaya used his first tenure to build his house that blocked a route to Abj
But will Dino be better

Kogi is large, diverse and strategic in the geography and economy of Nigeria but besides knowing states and capitals, no one knows or hears about Kogi

Many people dread the part of Kogi while traversing North to south

When it's supposed to be a conference, confluence and convergence of the entire Nigeria, but see where the leaders have relegated Kogi to?
It's a shame a scam an abnormally

I beg Kogites close your eyes to tribe, region and religion and vote someone who will truly transform Kogi to the best state it's supposed to be

They showed 2 adults entering a room and lights faded and left anyone who cared to, to finish the scene undecidedscene

If you ask a child now where's your private part they won't answer you cause e no dey again for many people

Isn't it sad and deplorable that a woman has lived and leveraged on her boobs all these years to make money and be in the news and claim relevance?

Is she saying that's all bestowed upon her in creation? No creativity, knowledge or nation building skills or talent or idea

Then people born before Indomie gens will be bragging that children of nowadays don spoil
