aswani:
Okafor why nau, ah ah.

You've left Nigeria, you are a medical doctor, you are blessed with children and grandchildren.

What is the desperation about?

He was gathering funds to return to Nigeria and contest for a political office.

Quite common practice

carzeem1:
He is a good, no doubt but no man is infallible.
Quite a number of people helped his ambition without which he would have lost.

Some Governors bequested all the votes in thier state to him disregarding the choice of voters.
Those are the structures you are talking about. Subversion of the will of the people for one man and thier own selfish gain

Yeah, his criminal and authoritarian structure filled with every form of sectarianism.

carzeem1:
Not true, tide is against him. He knows it hence, the desperation.
He can be beaten, Atiku just needs to step down and back a strong southerner with all his network n resources.

Can be beaten if Nigeria is some country in Europe.
But not with the structure Tinubu has put in place.

Contesting against him is futile.

But of course you guys will argue and other contestants will still waste their money.

Tinubu is running a mini Russian and Chinese style presidency - plain State Capture.

aswani:
How about imploring politicians not to be corrupt for starters.

Contest for presidency but please come to the equity with clean hands.

Nigeria or in Mars?

Tinubu has fully and completely captured the Nigerian State.

If you are not with him, then you are against him and it means you are subject to harassments and intimidation by law enforcement agencies.

Anyone contesting for the presidency come 2027 might just be wasting funds.

Tinubu need not move a muscle to win as everything is under his complete control.

Sponsored political essayist!

donproject2:
But those from Agulu are so notorious, look at international crimes reported in different channel, they top the list, what can you say about that? Eeeeeboosss....chai

I am not from Agulu, but I remember Agulu was under my coverage when I worked in Anambra for several months between 2014/2025.

But what is bad is his mindlessly generalising it.

There are good and bad people everywhere.

GeneralPula:
Mtchew..

See tears..

But who collected your bread? Go report to Igwe for village and stop disturbing nairaland with tears..

A fool who has no hope or redemption!

GeneralPula:
Agulu people & crime ehh..

If you look into every crime, they’re always representing..

How else do you define ethic and sectarian bigotry, hate and racism then with this comment!

People from your tribe and ethnicity are saints and everyone from Agulu are criminals.

How Nigeria is not in a civil war is simply a miracle because there’s so much hate in bones of Nigerians. Hatred fuelled by divisive politics and propagandas like this.

You guys should be ashamed of yourselves!

Saw it on trains here at Leeds

Lefty500:
If you ever get turned down for a job because of age in the UK, you can sue the company, it's just free money for you and many lawyers would be happy to take a case like that.

It is only in 9ja that everything is upside down. To even get called for interview, you go need connect.


When you move out of Nigeria, everything about 9ja go just dey vex you.

All we know is money money, no regard for rule of law. That's why an employer can decide to owe you months of wages and no consequences.

I never hear people striking becuase of unpaid wages or salary in the UK, the strike is always about better pay or better working environment and conditions.
Every Thursday, your money is already waiting in your account, or every last Wednesday of the month, if you earn monthly.

Let me stop here because this post just triggered me.

Some persons will believe you are lying but you no even talk the truth finish.

Nigerian companies hire and fire at will but UK companies provide you alternative employment if you don’t meet the mark of your current role or they are relieving you due to a downsizing.

No need sef to talk this matter.

My only prayer point is never to live in Nigeria and indeed Africa again. Living in Nigeria was my over 30 years not well spent.

Praying to only visit after my first 10years for just 2 weeks to let my kids visit their parents homeland as a vacation.

They believe those living abroad are depressed but countless millions of Nigerians living in the country are beyond depression but we can keep lying to ourselves.

PulaPower:
Disability people are being employed in Nigeria too..

Na you employ them?

In shape contrast, people of all ages and even people with disabilities are gainfully employed here in England.

I even know blind and visually impaired people who go to work using canes as they walk, gainfully employed.

Retirees are even begged to return to work, with many opting for part-time jobs.

But in Nigeria, job adverts have age restrictions. That will be considered discriminatory here.

I didn’t have to read this.

But this is my thought: the Nigerian public service and political establishment has no respect for the female gender.

That’s why the Senate President still remains in office after speaking disrespectfully to a female colleague.

Dignity at work policy alone would have sent him packing already but Nigeria is not governed by humans for humans.

What’s the use of the banks in Nigeria?

Because banks in England will reverse the criminal transactions.

Held at the balls.

Trump’s promise of peace is a mirage.

Humans cannot attain worldwide peace.

Only God through His Kingdom and King Christ will bring peace to earth.

The world will know peace only when the prophecy at Isaiah 2:4 fulfills: He will render judgment among the nations And set matters straight respecting many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares And their spears into pruning shears. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, Nor will they learn war anymore.

Saudivisa:
lies land bought for 20m in 2017 sold for 130m

I pray ooh.

Land marketers and their exaggerations. I am not an advocate of land banking like they call it.

It’s not an exact science.

This lie of people doing 3 jobs just to shame people abroad is nonsense.

How many persons do 2 jobs not to talk of 3.

I have better work life balance here in England than I had in Nigeria, better than my peers in Nigeria and I earn way better.

Land in Nigeria has little or no value. Still looking to sell the ones I left behind before they steal them.

Okigwe - the most backward of all famous places in the East!

Just wondering what will make anyone make that remote village a state capital - dreams and nightmares are free though.

And should the East get another state by some miracle, naming the new state Okigwe will be a great error. Okigwe is synonymous to backwardness and emptiness. The present day Okigwe has nothing in it except a huge unfinished Catholic cathedral, red soil for bricks that no one uses, prostitution in great abundance and all manner of crimes.

I can only be grateful to Okigwe for being the place I met and married my beautiful and loving wife. It is also said that there are no barren women in Okigwe, I can’t say I knew any barren women the 7 years I lived there. I was actually told that for some reasons, any woman unable to conceive elsewhere, readily conceive upon taking residence in Okigwe.

Aside these, Okigwe is the definition of a medieval city in a 21st century world.

Not against taxation, as every government must tax her citizens and every citizen owe government the responsibility to pay taxes.

However this government in Nigeria is taxing the poor of the poor disproportionately.

Increasing VATs and the outrageous bank charges over very small transactions plus monthly bank deductions for no service rendered will further increase poverty and not reduce it.

My wife visited Nigeria a few weeks ago and she returned to confirm to me the intensity of poverty enveloping the country.

It was President Tinubu who said ‘let the poor breath’ but in this government of his, the poor are seriously dying out of suffocation from his tax regime and policies.

It is invasion when their shamelessness has already invaded the life of the unborn baby

They should be jailed

I am not aware if adultery is a punishable offence in the Nigerian constitution, I am sure it’s a sin against God and the faithful spouse.

However, recording and circulating a persons private life or bedroom activity without their consent is a crime. And parading an accused or suspect on social media is a criminal offence as the law allows for the presumption of innocence until conviction.

Chidex50:
I said shut up!

You are an idiot, so no hope for you.

badoh:
Na that one you go talk. Na when it happens to you you go appreciate that such a video is recorded. If dem no record them, how do you want the husband to know that something of this nature is happening behind him. That's how most men unknowingly continue to father children belonging to other men.

This nonsense doesn’t help the husband or wife of those persons in anyway rather it greatly increases their depression and pains because now the world knows their secrets.

But because you guys are naive and inexperienced in life, you jump to put everything on social media, madness at best.

As you shame the guilty, you shame their innocent spouses.

If Nigerian laws are adhered to, the man who made this video commmited a felony.

FuckTheMod:

Wait till you caught your wife first, let's see what you will do

He has no right to apprehend and video, circulate a video of two adults who chose to live their life as they please, no right whatsoever.

Even the Police has no right to parade suspects on camera or record interrogations to post on social media.

This is invasion of privacy, extortion and blackmail. This is jungle justice. This is wrong

Simply means ‘Stolen iPhone’.

They will buy iPhone using their credit card, insure the iPhone against theft then travel to a far away city, switch off the iPhone and report it as stolen to the insuring company or to their credit card provider.

The company or provider will block the iPhone so it cannot be used in the country it was reportedly stolen. Refund the cost or replace the iPhone.

Then the thief will now sell the iPhone to his home country. This crime is always committed by immigrants from 3rd world countries.

Same way they sell stolen cars.

I drive a 2024 Nissan Leaf Electric and it’s great to drive.

Plus I get to charge free since October when I got it.

Even Satan go fear this short man devil.

A very wicked, deceitful good for nothing dwarf.

Raised spoilt sons.

A religious fanatics.

Satan Dey learn from Nigerian politicians!

Nigerians should be earning a living wage of N200,000 not minimum wage to reflect economic realities.

APCHaram:
Justice Binta erred by accepting to rescue herself from the case on the prompting of Kanu.

The only time a judge can do such thing on their own volition is when it is openly established that a conflict of interest exist such as a relative to the judge is a witness in the case for or against any of the parties in court.


None of that exists .

Justice Binta Nyanko was probably fed up overseeing the case brought before her to accept on the prompting of the defense to rescue herself.

Normally , before a judge can be forced to hands off a case were no obvious interests exist, the party in the case demanding for such must establish evidence in a petition written and addressed to the Judiciary Council stating why the judge must be replaced.

None of this happened and that's why Justice Nyanko was told by her superiors to continue with the case.

Kanu's latest outburst in court demanding Justice Nyanko rescue herself on the baseless grounds that she is biased against him are just another one of several tantrums by Kanu to stall his trial.

From Kanu's outburst against Justice Nyanko , he demanded that his case be transferred to a Federal High Court in the SE and the case file reassigned to an Ibo judge.

According to Kanu, only a Federal High Court in the SE with an Ibo judge presiding over his case can ensure a free trial.

Is this not madness ?

First he accused Nyanko of bias and from his demands so far demanding the case be reassigned to the SE zone under an Ibo judge , we can deduce that the tribal goat is projecting his own tribalism on Justice Nyanko by assuming she holds a grudge against him because he is Ibo and so can not preside fairly over his case.

Kanu is now tribalising his ongoing trial by gaslighting Justice Nyanko so as to stall proceedings.

There's also the high chance that if Kanu's demands are met , any judge assigned to his case at the Federal High Court in Enugu will face death threats from IPOB operatives.

Kanu is desperate to get his case out of Abuja and to the SE were he feels he can intimidate any judge or get his terrorists to spring him out of detention .

Spot on analysis.
