Niger state road is just too bad, considering they’ve had two head of state from the state. From Suleja to Kainji, na death trap be those road. We spent 9+ hours in Niger alone

Izzou, how you dey do am whenever you Dey go north cause apart from that Kaaba Abuja nassarawa road, the rest na trash, even kaduna kafanchan road na rubbish.

Nigerian government no dey try at all

Niger state has a lot of bad roads.....A whole lot.

The two ex presidents they had doesn't count much. Those guys were presidents in the far back 90s. Some of these roads didn't have much traffic as it has now

Na manage we dey manage am, pending when our Professor in Practice will remember it

Yeah. More like it.

Just with more speed

LordAdam16:
let me put this in as simple an analogy as possible so those who aren't as versed in geopolitics will understand

you do not rob an art gallery by carrying out a drive by shooting or kidnapping the director
trump cannot pick up tinubu and then claim all of nigeria's oil belongs to him and that he will run nigeria for as long as he desires
china cannot kill or kidnap the president of mongolia and announce that they now run mongolia
russia cannot do so with tajikistan

to be sure, the operation to capture maduro was exceptional
everyone involved can deservedly pat themselves on the back until their arms fall off
but that is a tactical win that simply by itself cannot translate to the strategic victory that the trump administration is boastfully announcing

in iraq they did it all and still discovered that you can't run all of iraq from baghdad
you can't run all of afghanistan from kabul
you're not going to run all of venezuela from caracas
not when 300 billion barrels of oil is in question

worse, the world's most prolific guerilla group is right next door in colombia
read about the FARC
these 🤡🤡 know their puppets will be murdered for sport as in every election season in mexico if they forcefully install them
that is why he admitted to the world that machado doesn't have what it takes to secure venezuela

but he can try
he should deploy troops to secure the oil he's eyeing and install the opposition
in a country three times larger than vietnam and has the exact same tropical terrain
with an insurgency group that has maintained effectiveness for 60 years
he will create a disaster that will ensure no republican becomes president for four election cycles
let him do it
the old gods deserve their blood sacrifice
vance will be campaigning in 2028 to bring the troops home

you want to terrorize the people that actually carried out the bolivarian revolution into submission by kidnapping their president
amateurs who don't read history
that's how they thought they could subdue the persians by killing generals and scientists

-Lord

Hmmmm

Makes a lot of sense

You kidnap a President, and still say you will run the country till there are capable hands.

UN no talk pim. If na China now, we no go hear word

benardtotti:
The correct number is 112 not 122 , the journalists themselves should have corrected him , this is my issue with our current crop of journalists they are as ignorant as the viewer themselves, it's terrible .

You need to see a psychiatrist

The FRSC man said it's 122. You're not blaming him for confusing millions of Nigerians in real time.

Na the journalist who may not even know the real number, that you see to blame

GloriousGbola:
With this act of madness trump has set a precedent for other powers with empire ambitions

Expect China to push forward on Taiwan

No be small madness

I thought Roland17 is lagos boy

I'm just assuming oh

raumdeuter:
How do you manage 2 and 3?

If you dont do interstate that means you only stay in Lagos throughout?

He flies to his village

pocohantas:
You again?

It was fun!

Sheriff don do flyover from PTI to East-West road

Roland17:
I find that it is easy to overlook the excesses of friends or family members when they drive… So I don’t even allow. Dem sabi me well well.. I have very strict driving rules when I am in Naija.

This makes sense!

BlueRayDick:
Typical of Nigerian way of doing things. Nobody Wan check vehicles using armed escorts.

That's why you see yahoo boys and even anybody with small cash rent SUVs that come with armed escorts when theybare moving around

I traveled to Warri on Monday

There was one particular GLK we were always meeting at Checkpoints.

This guy's glass was tinted. Anytime we get to a checkpoint, he just stretches #500 and no Policeman bothered to even check if e tiff the car or e carry human head.

The guy just dey share the #500, anywhere he goes

BlueRayDick:
The driver will do serous jail term, because our Nigerian authorities are already embarrassed by the whole situation. Now they would want to prove that Nigeria law doesn't condone people driving without license (Even though we all know that's not the case).

Ecwcpt u are a well connected politician or one of the untouchables in this country, it's nit advisable to drive without license because of this kind gbege.

I remember when some vehicles were bought for some members of a state house of assembly few years ago. The SUVs were bought for 21 of them through a bank loan which was being serviced by the house of assembly budget.

Like 2 years into their use of the vehicles, one of the honorrables had an accident with the vehicle which resulted in serious damage and they had to report to the bank to reach out to the insurers for repairs. It was when the bank requested for claim documents that it was revealed that the lawmakers didn't even collect plate number to the vehicles, tbey just used number cover to cover the plate and were driving it with escort. It was also revealed that the particular honorable didn't hold a valid drivers license as at the time of the accident. That would've been a serious issue for any average Nigerian both with the insurer and the police authorities.

But as typical of how things are done in Nigeria, the matter didn't cause any issue at all. Nobody go query honorable why he drove without a license

Anybody driving without a license is a potential terrorist.

I see many people do it. Until you enter wahala, you no go understand the gravity of that offense.

Whenever there's an accident, and the police gets there. The first two questions are

1) Where is the driver?
2) If alive, where's your license?

The moment you don't produce it, na prosecution straight

BlueRayDick:
So AJ's usual driver doesn't have a drivers license?

Are u not seeing a possibility of a liability claim from the members of the deceaseds' families? I mean if AJ employs a Nigeria driver who doesn't own a drivers' license, is he not vicariously liable for the death of his friends caused by the u license driver?

I'm sure there will be a police escort somewhere in his convoy. But the fact that police have been banned from performing escort services, the police authorities won't mention that. Funny thing is the police escort are almost as reckless as normal drivers on the road.

In fact, some escort drivers encourage other vehicles in the vehicle to driver rough.

Many of these guys in escort vehicles or even luxury vehicles have no license.

There was one that happened with the Minister of state, where the driver involved had a fake license

Police & FRSC no dey kuku check them. They stop and ask for money

Roland17:
Some things I never do whenever I visit Nigeria.

1. Drive myself, irrespective of the distance.
2. Allow any friend or family member drive me.
3. Ride Interstate.
4. Enter Okada.

Why Number 2?

Any reason?

a4turitoroman:
This is it you've said it all..
Impatient

GloriousGbola:
The transporter has spoken 🙇

iamoyindamola:
Exactly

Many drivers are usually the cause of their own accidents.

As much as we know that truck parking on the expressway is wrong, that truck was way far from the lanes. He had no business being there

Ibime:
Well it's the Policemen in the trailing vehicle that can confirm what happened

What is confirmed is the car lost control cos there is no need to go that far into the hard shoulder when overtaking unless the vehicle is out of control, the Koko is whether the loss of control is due to over speeding or blown tire. Driver could argue why would he try to overspeed and leave his security vehicle behind, that there must have been a tire failure or mechanical failure that caused the loss of control

Maybe I am wrong

But the VIP vehicle can only be in front, if it has a personnel in it.

If it has only the VIP in it, it should be behind, while the trailing vehicle leads

How come Joshua and his friends were in the VIP, without no security, and are in front?

Ibime:
The question is why would the driver try to overtake instead of maintaining contact with the trailing vehicle. . . which brings the possibility that it was blown tire that dragged them that wide of the road

Well, for me, that isn't any blown tyre cause.

It's very common to see two or three slow trucks trying to overtake each other.

The ideal thing is to stay behind the fastest one, then get enough clearance to overtake it after it has gone through.

That guy probably was impatient, went to the edge on speed, and by the time he realized he couldn't beat the vehicle, he had already crushed the right side of the SUV

If the tyre was blown, the possibility of the impact being on just one side would be low. It probably would have summersaulted, considering the speed he was on

Ibime:
He had a trailing vehicle which was Police so no need hiding the presence of a lead vehicle

Ohh. I didn't know there was a trailing one.

Na the driver kill them then.

This is for those who always drive without a Driver's license. This guy is most likely going to do decades in prison.

Ibime:
It's his usual driver. It's any anyhowness of the average Nigerian

Joshua is not well versed in how to move in Nigeria hence the useless driver and lack of lead vehicle in his convoy. Lead vehicle would have controlled the movement of the main vehicle. I don't even know why the driver seemingly tried to overtake, he should be maintaining contact with the trailing security vehicle, which is why blown tyre is a possibility

Is it possible that Joshua didn't have a lead vehicle?

No security? I doubt

Very possible there was a lead vehicle, but maybe na Police (which they have been banned from escorting VIPs), so it's better to die that part of the matter down

raumdeuter:
Our GO has declared Chwenchy Chwenchy six as the year of DABUSH KABASH

Do you think this power will be enough?

It is quite ironic that this content creator has no sexual scandal to his name; Keeps his home and honours his marriage.

But the ones wey say God call them and dem dey see vision, na him dey nack 4 abortions comot for one Chorister body.

akwesenana:
Them kidnap person for Anambra, so...

The line of defence is always kidnap and Banditry. That has always been their line of defense.

So wetin we go call this one now?

Is it kidnap?
Is it Banditry?

BlueRayDick:
Bashir don drop quotable quite , he say they are not Muslims. 😷

He intentionally avoided to answer if there was Christian persecution or not.

Yes, it's not Islam. So, can we call it a Christian persecution, or we should look the other way?

GloriousGbola:
Why are you choosing violence this early in 2026?

I am honestly afraid now. It looks like we will become a theatre of escalation with all these

He is usually quick to say persecution doesn't exist, because Muslims are also keednapped.

Well, I hope he at least, can call it what it is, and move on with his "Operation Ayamatanga" posts.

Amoto has not informed us yet that Eye-swap forced a Christian village to convert to Islam, and burnt it.

TrebleChamp:
Be like we are about to see Fubara vs Wike round two fight.
Fubara really dealt with Wike and him HoA loyalist in round one, until Tinubu used wuruwuru SoE to suspend him. Maybe joining APC has given him the protection he need...

Those HoA members that decamped to APC.

Whose camp do they belong to?

Happy New Year to everyone...

Especially people I have been avoiding like airmark, Disstroy and Elder

May our days be filled with joy!

Ellexy:
No be you talk the other day say you don leave behind everything that has to do with mentorship and tutorship? Abi you still want continue next year....

Chai!

I wan stop sha. After the 1st quarter of 2026

afrodoc2:
Happy New Year brethren. We hope and pray for a better year than last year.

Mentorship roles?

Any Roadmap for 2026?

afrodoc2:


The guy don give you seal of approval to vote whoever you like; you should be happy. Hehehe.

See as e shade me because I only expressed my own view.

I no even say Obi no fit win. I only said I do not believe in ADC.

E say make I go vote Jesus Christ!

Ahn Ahn!

Sportsweb:
Do whatever suits you big boss. Vote tinubu, Atiku, Obi, anybody you want boss

Before nko?

No be you quote me say make I go vote Jesus Christ?

Abi you see where I ask people to join me?

Sportsweb:
Don't worry, vote for Jesus Christ of Nazareth in 2027

This gaslighting no go even spark, talk more of catching fire!

So after aligning with Atiku, Aregbe, Malami, Elrufai and he wins, Nigeria will be better, right?

I have 2 and half plots of 3rd mainland bridge for sale; Incase you get buyer. Original Survey plan and Governor's consent available

Trevor012:
Is half bread not better than none? With obi there at least you know the mandate is still alive.

When you cannot change the structure, of what use is your mandate?

As "Master planning" as Tinubu is, he settled for a governor who pays ransom to bandits as his Defense Minister of state.

It took the intervention of US, before a qualified person earned it. That's how useless a mandate is when you use a corrupt structure to get there.

If he won't run alone, there's no point to me.
