SixSeven: Our problem is that we like to celebrate nonsense. And by nonsense I mean, we celebrate material things, things that don't have value, no worth but only craving validation because it is not authentic.
The elders used to say that a man who does not know where the rain began to beat him cannot know where he dried his body. Today, we no longer look at a man’s character, we only look at the size of his harvest, even if he stole the yams. We have turned our backs on the quiet truth of our ancestors to dance to the loud drums of foolish men. Of course, when a society begins to crown jesters and mock the honest farmer, the roof is already falling on the house. That's why they once said when a thief tells you to gotocourt, his brother is the judge. It means the system is fixed, and a dishonest person is only acting bold because they control or have an unfair advantage in the system meant to judge them. They control the system, they are the king of boys
If we crush the seed of integrity just to celebrate the chaff, what will our children eat when the famine of character arrives? Na there we de so. Ajekun iya ti e je ehn, Davido and SDM never got sing am well yet.
Should we say he did not settle the ogas on top properly or the NDLEA is working?
You can't attempt moving consignments like these without strong backing from the authorities.
It is no wonder that Nigeria's drug barons live LARGE, flaunting cash, jewelry and supercars built to ply German highways. Once the golden handshake deal has been struck between the narco-cowboys and the usual "bad eggs" on the force, shipments of cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine flood Nigeria's ports of entry without an eyebrow being raised. Surrounded by staff, groupies and bodyguards, Nigeria's extravagantly-spending narcotics wholesalers, like the Tate brothers, presume themselves to be above the law.
As with all marriages of convenience, however, profit sharing disputes blow open the can of worms eventually, just the way it did for this big-time narco-trafficante now languishing in the NDLEA net and awaiting his fate behind bars. God bless the Always Mighty NDL:EA Head Honcho, General Marwa, whose dynamic organization has taken aim at the "untouchables" who thrive amid the shadows of Nigeria's underworld, lavishing currency by the bushel basketful.
Dogalmighty17: That's the simple truth here! There are over 1000 uses of hemp that can be made into a money spinner of sorts. Not that I have smoked hemp before but I see no reason why the drug should be criminalised.
Your educational response stands out from the usual ignorant comments parroted in this forum that blindly condemn cannabis, by short-sighted people who are often drunkards and cigarette smokers.
The irony of Sowore's demand is that it is Nigeria's lazy and unmotivated lawmakers that must now shoulder the blame for the continued prohibition of cannabis, and NOT the NDLEA, whose boss, The Always Mighty General Buba Marwa directly instructed Nigeria's legislators to draft draft a legal framework that would govern a new legalized, taxed and regulated medical cannabis industry for Nigeria.
That wise, bold, and progressive directive to legalize a taxed medical marijuana industry in Nigeria was sent to the lawmakers in late 2025, yet today, 8 months later, those lawmakers have done NOTHING to show their compliance with General Marwa's explicit orders that the lucrative cash crop should now be legalized with specific documented guidelines.
Until such time as the legislators take a break from their their treasury-looting feeding frenzy and draft the cannabis legalization law they have been asked to complete since late 2025, the NDLEA has no option but to continue enforcing the existing cannabis prohibition laws that are so wasteful of manpower and resource which would be much better applied towards the interdiction of the REAL deadly drugs, such as cocaine, heroin, PCP, methamphetamine, codeine, and even poisonous synthetic THC that is made in clandestine Chinese drug labs.

GloriousGbola: Earlier this year, I got a call at 1am from my neighbor. He was working out of town but he had cctv and a gang of robbers were in his compound and trying to break into his house.
I came out woke up the abokis in the estate, started banging on his gate, woke up the neighbours. He had some opc contacts. We basically got into his house and caught two of the robbers. The police showed up. It was evident from their body language they were going to let the criminals go and this is exactly what eventually happened.
So it would have been better for all of us if we had beaten the robbers up and filmed it.
If any robber or kidnapper commits the cardinal mistake of trying to attack a house in which I reside, they will be met with a barrage of surgically accurate gunfire that will fragment them to airborne tatters, one shotgun blast at a time.
I would never attempt to "catch" any invader who has already breached my first line of defense by shooting at my pack of attack dogs, causing me to simply open fire without warning, motivated by the dedicated intention to kill as many of the invaders as possible. Self defense is the inalienable right of any human being on planet Earth, and Lord knows I am adequately equipped, trained and experienced to give superb account of myself should I ever face a mortal threat of any kind.
If, however, I stumbled upon a scene where an armed robber had been disarmed and captured by civilians, I would NEVER be party to the extra-judicial murder of that disarmed felon who is no longer a threat to anyone. The difference between justifiable self-defense on the one hand, and capital murder on the other hand, is a derivative of whether or not the criminal being killed was armed and on the attack, or was NOT armed, and had been subdued while alive, be that injured or unscathed.
Say no to mob murder of captured criminals, but by all means do not hesitate to kill anyone who breaks a door to invade your home wielding a gun or any other deadly weapon. That said, if you participate or passively encourage the mob lynching of a suspect in the street, the Inspector General of Police will ensure that you rot in jail for capital murder.
Conversely, if you can PROVE that you shot an armed intruder spotted breaking into your home in Nigeria, there is a good chance that you will be freed to go home without any criminal record, after you have been interviewed by the police and or the DSS.
DeepSight: Jaks, it just irritates me that today's youth only have the instinct to snap and post for likes and clicks even in very serious scenarios requiring immediate action such as medical emergencies or accidents.
God help anyone who suffers any form of medical emergency these days in any country, because the crowd that rushes to the scene will all have their phones out exclusively to film the event rather than for phoning emergency responders.
Drfernandez: Hmmm! That Baba Ade. Well, don't blame him too much, the lady isn't too innocent. In fact, if not for Baba Ade's poor negotiating skills, we wouldn't have known about this and what followed up between them after alighting from the vehicle.
You must not assume that Baba Lamidi was unable to redeem the situation and mount that poon later.
nlfpmod: If she hadn't filmed it, people may not believe her. The man may deny it.
This is a good point. The man may have been aware he was being filmed, but still left his hand there because it felt so good to do so. The lady was actually quite polite. Another woman might have filmed him and then awarded him a resounding slap.
Chummynoni: Lol . Can you see the way an old man put his entire lineage in shame? Tame your third leg guys , start from now .
Pops looks so remorseful and sad that the woman was not enjoying the feel of his hand despite his earlier assumption to the contrary.
He should have politely requested permission to stroke her thigh. He should have asked her whether he could be privileged to wipe a few specs of dust that came in on a gust of wind through the bus window and landed on her luscious and inviting thigh.
AndroBlaze: The Baba clearly needs immediate psychological help but it's how comfortable she is with the situation that is truly interesting.
I was thinking the same thing. Rather than remove the man's hand and raise the alarm, this woman's first instinct was to photograph the hand that was stealthily exploring her tasty-looking silky thigh, for the enlightenment of Nairaland's Vaseline and soapy crew, as it were.
The new police top man for Nigeria is making history as the FIRST Inspector-General of Police to openly FORBID mob murder that has sadly been a fixture of Nigerian life for many dark decades of lynch-mob insanity.
Congratulations, utmost respect and adulation are due to The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, for taking this very public stand to alert the Nigerian public and the global community that Nigeria will NOT tolerate mob lynching or torture, for one day longer.
This fine gentleman is the FIRST top ranking Nigerian law enforcement officer to openly condemn the barbaric practice of mob murder that has reached epidemic proportions in Nigeria.
This man is an unsung hero of our modern times, whose warning must be taken to heart by the mindless ululating savages who think it is acceptable to kill a fellow human being without any recourse to the criminal justice system that mandates a fair trial before conviction.
No, e no clean at all! Na complete crime and human rights violation.
Even though some people dey see forced dancing, singing, or performance while dem dey beat suspect as "mild joke" compared to burning person alive, under Nigeria law, na still jungle justice and public torture.
Law Violations Wey Dey Inside 1. Dignity of Human Person (Section 34) Under Section 34(1)(a) of the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria, every human being get right to dignity. The law talk clear-clear say: nobody get right to torture person or do dem wetin go degrade or humiliate dem. Forcing suspect to dance, sing, or disgrace dem for crowd while dem dey beat dem dey break this law directly.
2. Presumption of Innocence (Section 36) Section 36(5) talk say anybody wey dem accuse of crime na innocent person until court of law prove say e do am. Mob or crowd no be court, and dem no get any legal right to judge person, punish am, or parade am.
3. Cybercrimes & Privacy Law To record person while dem dey beat am or disgraceful am, and upload the video for social media (Instagram, TikTok, X), na big offense under the Cybercrimes Act. Police dey arrest both the people wey dey beat the suspect and the people wey dey record/share the video online.
Wetin Na the Role of Human Rights Commission (NHRC)? The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) na government body wey dey fight for citizens right. For this kind matter, their work na to:
Investigate Abuse: Dem dey receive report and investigate cases where people or mob torture and disgrace suspects.
Educate the Public: Dem dey teach people say mob justice and forced humiliation na crime, and say make dem dey follow law.
Hold People Accountable: Dem dey work with Police to make sure say people wey follow beat or record the video face court.
Protect Victims: Dem dey help victims (or their family) get justice and compensation if dem destroy their rights.
Wetin the Law Say You Suppose Do? If community or crowd catch suspect, the only legal action na to hand the person over to the nearest Police station immediately without beating, stripping, or forcing dem to perform for camera. Anybody wey participate for the beating or forced performance dey commit crime under Nigeria law.
So technically they don't know they are breaking the law according to my younger brother it's bending the law small not breaking
The illiterate savages always on the lookout for an opportunity to commit horrendous crimes of wanton brutality, have zero regard for the law.
Making a thief dance as a humiliating punishment is better than committing a lynching, but not all the above videos are merely of dancing thieves. Some of them are horrendous tortures that will likely take the lives of the victims.
The two men with their hands and legs tied together for hours if not days, will likely die later, or require amputation. Likewise the man being dragged to his death behind a motorcycle will suffer horrendous wounds before dying in agony. Those brutal tortures are criminal offences that should in a just society result in jailing of the sadistic torturers who took the law into their own hands.
madridguy: The people that pushed Kanu into this are in their homes, with their wives and children but look at him.
I and other concerned citizens of Nigeria warned him to take everything with caution but we were called " cowards" , " unity beggars" , by his followers.
Now, the same followers have moved on. No one is campaigning for his release, they're no longer using his photos as their profile picture on their handles and the man is now abandoned to his fate.
I sincerely pity his wife and children.
Pease don't pity Kanu for he is now the Exalted Seriki Nddigbo of Sokoto Prison, which is a lifetime appointment that carries numerous privileges.
While spending the balance of his wasted life in prison, Seriki Nnamdi "Show me Di Law" Kanu will become fluent in both Hausa and Fulani dialects, while he will also learn to be best friends with all the Boko Haram terrorists who are languishing in jail there for life.
Fujiyama: My lighthearted quote of a jibe often used (years ago) against Buhari by Jakumo has been hidden on this thread.
There are 4 possibilities:
Spambot has done its wicked work (theoretically possible but highly unlikely) Jakumo himself reported my post (again possible, but extremely unlikely) Some other poster reported my post (again possible, but very unlikely) Moderator hid the post for reasons best known to him/her (the most likely explanation)
Moderator, what say ye?
No be me o. I never saw said quote, but over past years, I did write many blasphemous things about our late and unlamented Maximum Leader who is now enjoying his imaginary allocation of 72.
Even Women when they were 18-20 all went for guys above 30s back then because they all wanted something good and nice. E reach our turn, Dey want us to go for them oldies. God forbid
Jman06: You may end up marrying your daughters yourself or escorting them to Shilo when the time comes.
I will encourage my own daughters to marry as early as 18-21yo provided they see men with correct heads on their necks. I wouldn't even mind still training them in school after marriage. Pregnancy and childbirth are faster and less complicated at such young ages because their bodies are more flexible compared to the stiffness of older women's bodies.
I beg make you no flog our cash madam o. She don vess well-well already, before you come dey shook am with pin.
Offpoint1: That's why I laughed at men who said you need money to attract women.
If you can get a woman number, you can sleep with that woman 100% no matter how broke you are... Just mastered your words, in fact engage them with those words within these hours "10pm-2am" their emotions are on steroids by these hours..... They can visit you in sambisa.
Speaking from practical experiences.
Women only have class or hard to get from distance.... 5 seconds with them and your words, you'll break all their walls.
So many men devote their lives to gaining wealth, building muscle and seeking fame because they think those qualities are what will make women flock to them. In the process, they often wind up alone, and patronizing prostitutes, because even after improving themselves, they are shocked to discover that their inability to speak with women remains the barrier that keeps them in a prison of loneliness.
