Look at the quality of iron they are using for Ore-Ondo expressway o. Later if they ask Umahi question on live TV he will refuse to answer and be forming performatory anger over non-issues .

The road is one of the busiest roads in Nigeria with so much vehicular movement on a daily basis , but see the kind iron rod dem dem use in its construction. If rain washes the road off few months after commissioning they will claim it is due to acidic rain that has been falling in recent times 🤦‍♂️

[color=royalblue]I think the wire mesh is to retain the position and markings for them to fix the rods after they have bent them.

Maybe I'm wrong sha.[/color]

Rwanda supporters get your calculators out

A Rwanda draw in South Africa on Tuesday will see us through to World Cup if we beat Benin at home

Rwanda already beat South Africa 2-0 at home

If only Troost Ekong didn't mess up against Zimbabwe, we would be topping the group

[color=royalblue]Goal difference between Benin and Nigeria is 2

We just need to beat Benin by 3 goals and we are through. Whatever SA and Rwanda play is really not a factor, if we can beat Benin well well.

In all, it's a shame. This has been one of the easiest groups we have had in a while [/color]

My issue is the constant compulsion to compare using the SE.

Why can't he make his case for the state of Ibadan without the SE? What is the purpose of including the SE?

Las las, we all know what we are doing.

raumdeuter:
How can Ibadan be 239 square Kilometers

[color=royalblue] Sorry about that.

Means it's only bigger than Lagos, and should therefore be a state?[/color]

raumdeuter:
Definitely Ibadan has more land mass and more population than some states, So if those should be states, why cant Ibadan be a state

[color=royalblue]The smallest state in Nigeria is Lagos, and it's 3000 square kilometers

Ibadan is 239 square kilometers.

How exactly is Ibadan bigger?[/color]

Very careless talk but funny enough there are some people that parrot this same statement.

[color=royalblue]One of the silent blessings im grateful for is the ability to be able to travel to many places, and see different sides of Nigeria.

When I see people argue sometimes, I just know that they probably haven't left their gate.[/color]

raumdeuter:
He mixed up his statement. What will be correct is that Oyo state landmass is ALMOST the size of the entire SE

Oyo state 28,000 sqkm

[color=royalblue]His argument was that Ibadan should be a state, so I don't think he was trying to argue about Oyo. It wasn't a mixup. It's deep ignorance.

The ignorance sef is much. It shows someone like that has not traveled much. How can anybody say Ibadan is bigger than any state in Nigeria?

Lastly, since when did land mass become a valid reason to create a state? If na so, Northern Nigeria go get almost 20 extra states?

Well, I don't expect much lately from what I see[/color]

This HOA man down enter trouble with his statement.

[color=royalblue]Ibadan = 239 square kilometers

South East Nigeria = 29,000+ square kilometers

But Ibadan is bigger than 4 SE states.[/color]

[color=royalblue]GloriousGbola

Please help me understand this.

So, I have always known that when building storeys, after decking a floor, it is usually left for about a month, before they continue building.

This is what I have always seen, and known.

But I discover that lately, people continue to build immediately after they deck. Is it safe?

I have seen it many times, especially in markets like Alaba, Lagos Island. In less than 2 months, they have finished one floor, and are on another one.

Can it be done this way?[/color]

"I Must Be Mrs By Force".

As for you side hoes who keep causing drama in people's marriages, your punishment will be very bitter. Your own marriages, if you ever do get married will be filled with double the drama and sorrow you caused for other women.

You men that do not stop at committing adultery but also add insult to injury by forcing your wives to be humiliated by your mistresses, continue. You will receive disgrace in 100 folds.

Ishy Ishy.

I thought you gave us this advice sometime ago.[/color]

Ishilove:
The one and only time I checked his phone, my ears saw my eyes. Since that day I left his phone alone for my mental health and well being. He doesn't know I checked it because I never told him. I love my peace biko. If you like police a man and dog him like a shadow, he will cheat if he wants to cheat. He is a full grown adult and is solely responsible for his actions and inactions. As long as he doesn't bring home an STD to come and meet innocent you, doesn't bring back the demons of his side chick(s), treats you with respect and he takes care of the family, please, avoid drama and stay away from his phone.

My former boss was, and still is a terrible womaniser and his circle of friends hold advanced degrees in philandering, but you see his wife? She is his queen. He doesn't joke with her, and respects her. He was the person who made me realise that you just cannot police a man. Despite all the love he has for his wife and family, he still sleeps with a different woman every night whenever he is in the country.

If you want peace in your marriage/relationship, don't police a man. Just commit him to God and ask God to deal mercilessly with him if he, or any interloping third party ever tries to bring problems to you or mistreat you in your corner. Shikena.

raumdeuter:
There are several things she could be scared of that will make her jump including murder, assassination or we can expand the speculation to maybe she thought they came to harvest her organs or commit ritual

[color=royalblue]Very possible

The fact that the robbers were at the balcony with her, makes every of this speculation, a possibility [/color]

BlueRayDick:
Police give story, robber dey back am up. The irony!

[color=royalblue] Police: The deceased jumped out of panic

Robbers: Yes, it's true. We even wanted to save her.

Orishirishi![/color]

raumdeuter:
So where did the rape angle come from? Not the police, not from people in the house. The only consistent line is she wasnt killed by bullet rather from injuries from a fall which could be from a jump or being pushed.

The rape angle is merely speculations by people who never got to the scene

[color=royalblue]Yes, I am speculating

After hearing the account of the accused, I would rather speculate that she didn't want to get raped, and took such a risk.

According to the story, the robber was with her at the balcony...How? How did they get there?

Ohh, I forgot. They lied[/color]

raumdeuter:
You are going with which story? The robber trying to save his neck?

Maybe after she don jump finish na him robber go look over the balcony to see if she really jumped or she is hiding

[color=royalblue]Well, only the departed can tell the truth.

May her soul rest in peace.[/color]

raumdeuter:
Where did the rape story come from? The eye witness, the police or random internet speculation?

[color=royalblue]Is there any eye witness in this story?

We are using the story by the Police, which is she jumped, and the robbers who confirmed that she jumped, but they were there to save her.[/color]

BlueRayDick:
So the people who would lie that they tried to Save her could not also be telling lies about she jumping?

Those claiming she jumped are making assumptions that can easily be invalidated with the cocckk and bull story of robbers attempting to become super hero.

raumdeuter:
Robbers don already shoot someone, They are entering her room, She doesn't know what is on their mind. It might range from Shooting, murdering macheting, rape, slap or obtaining. Thre are many options there in her mind

Savior story is from the robber likely with intention to get a softer sentence by appearing to be nice

[color=royalblue]So you believe the Savior story can be a lie, but you don't believe that they can lie about rape?

[/color]

semid4lyfe:
Baba, the rape angle no make sense rara. If the robbers had tried to molest her, there would have been noise, struggle, torn clothing, signs of force/physicality but none of that was mentioned anywhere.

You probably underestimate how disoriented she was during the robbery. She panicked, adrenaline kicked in, she wasn't thinking straight and she jumped out of fear for her life, and not because the robbers tried to rape her.

Until there’s a report pointing to sexual assault, the rape theory is just speculation built on emotion, not fact.

[color=royalblue]So how did the robber get to the balcony to save her?

I mean...We are going with the story, right?

How come we have a robber trying to save the victim, and he was already at the balcony?[/color]

BlueRayDick:
It's cocck and bull story that she wanted to jump and a robber tried to Save her. It's a badly written work of fiction if u ask me

[color=royalblue]We have seen these stories repeatedly.

Group of men go to rob. After robbing, they see a helpless female that they can feast on.

She jumped from her balcony, but a robber was already there to save her.

Superman![/color]

raumdeuter:
My point is that she probably didnt know what was on their mind, seeing gun totting men who had already shot someone was enough warning to her. If they enter her room then she can rightly assume they were also coming to kill her.

When cultists came to our school, By the time you hear gunshot close to your floor, Many people jumped from 2nd floor even if the cultists ended up not going to their room or they were not even the target since they didnt know the mind of the killers

In such situations many people have done worst things just to escape, In the face of danger to your life, you will do anything even if some might think its not sensible. They were not in your shoes

Some people actually jumped from World Trade center many floors up when they faced what seemed to them like sure death

[color=royalblue]So what was the robber doing close to her nau? How did he appear there to save?

There are women that would rather die, than let a man man forcefully have sex with them.

This is someone who has a wedding in December, and then seeing 21 to 23 year old boys with weapons.....If it was just robbery, you think she wouldn't just give up her belongings and live?
[/color]

raumdeuter:
When you see a gang with ammunitions coming your way, You dont know what they "Just" want to do as you no dey their minds

She might have assumed they were coming to assassinate her and no option is off the table if you think your life is at risk.

That is also not the time for detailed logical well thought out plans

[color=royalblue]For women?

It was not her own house. It was a block of apartments. A security had already been shot, so already everybody has gotten the memo.

If truly she wanted to jump out of fear, how come a robber was close by to save her, but her weight was much?

You came to steal and kill, and still came with compassion to save?

We have seen and heard these kind of stories especially for females. Group of men come to steal, and after stealing, they decide to enjoy themselves with the helpless female [/color]

semid4lyfe:
You don drift into speculation cos there's no factual evidence for this.

[color=royalblue]You sef check am nau.

The story doesn't add up about her jumping to her death. She saw robbers who just wanted to rob, and then she decided that killing herself was better?

Odiegwu

The part where one of them was trying to save her even validates my speculation. Armed robber wan save ke? What was he even doing close to her at the balcony?

The confrontation went beyond robbery for her. She panicked and jumped.[/color]

[color=royalblue]Those guys tried to rape her, and she jumped.

Shikena![/color]

Elected officials are conducting protest for him because they want to win elections

Didn't we see Abaribe sign as a surety for Kanu many years ago, even offered to be Kanus personal driver.

That has been the only thing Abaribe can point to that he delivered to his constituency and he has won all his elections since then. So why wont others try the same method. Any elected politician who want to win elections in the East should just offer to be Kanus cook or washing his clothes and he is guaranteed election wins

[color=royalblue]How many politicians are in the East, and how many have you seen with Kanu since he was arrested?

The case doesn't even have any bearing again. The judge has been removed.

Ekpa that was arrested in February has been convicted in Finland. Kanu that was arrested for almost the same thing has been going back and forth for 5 years.

To top it all, the same people who are labeled terrorists like him, got juicy settlements and Chieftaincy titles.

It won't be long before we see Southern senators, and not just the SE shouting for his release in the Senate. [/color]

semid4lyfe:
I doubt there was much forgery of credentials in the 70's and 80's. The technology wasn't available in the country then.

The minister's Bachelor and NYSC discharge certificates were forged recently, and backdated to his chosen dates.

[color=royalblue]I doubt that too, but I guess maybe there's more we didn't know about. I also agree that it would have been easier to forge then.

Reminds me of a movie by Leonardo DiCaprio. His name was Frank something sha. Baba forged cheques, scammed airlines, even Olosho sef . The FBI had to employ him in the end.

And that was in the 70s and 80s[/color]

[color=royalblue]Umahi answers na "View once"

E no dey answer twice [/color]

[color=royalblue] Nigeria really messed this Nnamdi Kanu's case up.

I am not surprised that elected officers are now conducting protests for him. It won't be long before the entire elected and selected SE officials show him support.

You accuse someone of terrorism and locked him up, with no sign of conviction. Another region has the same set of terrorists, and they are offered money, Peace deals and Chieftaincy titles.

Buhari, the Master Security strategist, I hope you find peace wherever you are.[/color]

[color=royalblue]I remember how we were told Nigeria was good in the 70s and 80s, and how NYSC was something every graduate looked up to.

If people were forging certificates in the 70s, when there wasn't really a need, and Nigeria wasn't this bad, I can imagine the kind of forgery going on today [/color]

BlueRayDick:
E be like say u no know the kind soup wey the guy enter. The guy submitted a bachelor's degree certificate purportedly form UNN and NYSC discharge certificate purportedly issued by NYSC to DSS and SSG when he was nominated and cleared for ministerial role.

Those certificates have turned out to be forgery because apparently UNN never issued him the bachelor's degree nor was his NYSC certificate consistent with those that served the same year he did.

The Nnaji guy should be doing some time in prison for forgery but na naija we dey. People would hail him for being honorable enough to resign and few months after he will claim he was victimized or targeted by his enemies.


PS: His deposition in court actually confirmed UNN never issued him the degree certificate he's been parading as issued by the institution. He was admitted into UNN but the academic records showed he never graduated nor was issued a certificate by the institution

[color=royalblue]Been following the whole saga, and I shame well well for am.

If na poor man now, na handcuffs him go wear.

See as dem dey pamper am like say e do something honourable.

But it's more of a disgrace to the DSS. So they didn't even do any findings on it? It took an independent newspaper to do that.[/color]
