So the supreme court can actually kick against FG's move like this, yet they sheepishly obeyed in imposing a failed governor to Imo State?

fergie0o1:
SERAP had dragged the FG & CRS Govt to the ECOWAS Court in February 2020 following the illegal detention and ill-treatment of CrossRiverWatch editor, Agba Jalingo.

The people that sold Buhari as the best president to rule Nigeria, are at it again.

Today, these people are telling us that Osibanjo's qualification for the presidency is solely grounded on the fact that he can hold an umbrella (which happens to be a PDP thing anyway).
Was he expecting his Fulani master standing by his side, to hold it for him?


And, why is he only protecting himself from the rain? Why was he not accommodating more people under that big umbrella. What a selfish man. Only after his own interest. Not minding that the other people are being drenched

Mokason288:

All I see in the picture is that Nigeria needs Umbrella

More than it needs brooms


Where is the lie in that?

gidgiddy:
How will you prove he gave them illegal arms? Its all about what you can prove

chiedu7:
they sent the army after MNK to kill him

There is no-one who will hang around to be killed

Taking the bond money is just another anti-igbo move by this satanic govt

Jawa:
Thanks so much.
hi Imokay, there is no way this is real. there are immigration schemes run by the Canadian government openly, not in secret.
desperation is what fuels the victims of these scams. your brother also needs to understand that its not all rosy abroad. things are hard too and its also difficult to break even. accomodation, tax, feeding, insurance, gas, light, waste, name it. you have to be outstanding to stand out, just like in Nigeria here. if he has 4million Naira handy, maybe he should consider doing a masters degree in Canada or consider the Express entry route if he is a skilled worker in one of the NOCs available.best of luck

Yomieluv:
the governor is the CSO of the state. why need to call the presidency again,since he can commandeer the police within his state..

whats the response of the president when called?

God why did you put me in a country where animal live is worth more than human?

DAVIYJONESS:
This right here is why the country is full of runz girls/sluts/ olosho . When men don't care about what's right and forget the concept of integrity on humans.

Because I'm not a virgin doesn't mean I don't deserve to marry a virgin, whoever I had sex with was by agreement I never forced her be it sex worker or a typical girl. I did it because I had to and my body couldn't take it no more. But a woman case is different they have more self sex control than male when they were virgins( this is by fact through research) whatever made her gave her virginity away is by choice wether being lure/seduced/ deceived she has herself to blame because these things can be neglected.

Who was the wife of Zik? I am sure she was so inconsequential that nobody even remembers her name.

Fulani are nomadic pasturalists who are almost condemned to clash with local farmers wherever they go. This is exacerbated by the fact that they do not recognise any governmental authority except their chiefs. It is the job of the government to monitor, disarm them and regulate their activities.

Sometimes they will be victims, sometimes they will be the culprits. Either way, government has to manage them and the other communities they are in conflict with.

Vanguard must apologise to berom people for using their name erroneously in a 'bloodbath news report'. The crisis was between Alago and Eggon people, both of Nassarawa state. Beroms are in far away plateau and nowhere near Assakio. A little historical perspective might help in understanding how these unfortunate incidents came about and refused to go.Most of the crises in central Nigeria in which land issues are at stake are the legacies of the British/Fulani alliance's divide-and-rule tactics, otherwise known as the Indirect Rule System. It is a historical fact that the Othman Danfodio led Jihad was not successful in penetrating most of the areas that today formed Nassarawa and Taraba states. Therefore, when the British colonialists sought to use the Fulani Caliphate's model of governance over other ethnic groups that had no such centralised system of leadership the Fulanis saw an opportunity to exercise their influence over those tribes that had resisted or defeated them on the battle fields during the Jihad. Their prime target was the Tiv people who had inflicted on them painful defeat during the Jihad, and who were not in the good books of the colonialists because of their tireless resistance to white man' s disregard for their own value systems. Among the tribes under the indirect rule system were those whom the British/fulani alliance had chosen to favour over the others. Men from such favoured tribes were crowned as chiefs and given some level power to decide cases, including land disputes. The Jukuns with an interesting history of kwararafa empire, which the British studied with keen interest, easily fit the cap in the Wukari area. Besides the Kanuri controlled emirate of Lafia, the Alagos were the next favoured tribe under the indirect rule over tribes like Tiv, Koro and a few others. The Tivs whose scattered settlement and egalitarian nature ran counter to the concentrated settlement of most ethnic groups and their centralised system of government fared worse under the indirect rule system as they were completely excluded from membership of council of chiefs. It then became easy for the Fulanis to access land whereever they wanted since these chiefs controlled lands under their jurisdictions and were bound to submit to the wishes of their fulani 'kingmakers'. Therefore, after the British left the Fulanis became the next "colonial masters". The Assakio mayhem is traceable to this submit-to-my-will-I-favour-you tactis of the British/fulani system which saw the more "ammenable" and ambitious Alagos being appointed chiefs over other tribes even in areas where such other tribes had settled long before the Alagos arrived. In the Assakio land dispute, Eggons are saying that the right people to decide who should own the piece of land in dispute are the Koros who were already settled in Assakio before the rest of them, including the Alagos, arrived. See what a foundation that was laid with the bricks of inordinate ambitions is now supporting as a structure! May the love of God, His wisdom and mercy be our guide at all time. Amen!
