I have never thought of the idea of flying Arik on international route, even if it's free

fellis:
Sure thing brother Jarus. They could be telling the truth anyways, its just that I am very skeptical about things like this.

Understood. Maybe because I know the mechanism behind it. It makes it easier for me to believe.

fellis:
They are lying. Anyone can come on the internet and tell any lie to draw attention.

Well, I don't think 3 different people from different parts of the country, who don't know one another, will lie against themselves.

At least 2 of them have even posted pictures of the objects the money turned into. These can't be a coincidence.

This is a first hand account. He didn't know the op. This doesn't look made up. At least 3 other people have confirmed first hand experience, not hearsay.

Akuneshiobike:
Oga, i dnt blame your doubtedness cos such have not happened to you before. This guys uses charm to manipulate the victims. I was once a victim of these hoodlums. I boarded the taxi from Oyibo to Garrisson to love-vendor my barley-a-month brand new laptop. I was carrying the laptop inside the laptop bag. Two guys and a lady was sitting at the back of the car, while a guy was sitting at the front of the car, with me sitting at the extreme door with the guy in front, keeping my laptop bag on my laps. After covering a short distance from where I entered, the driver instructed me to close the door very well. On the process of trying to open and close the door, the guy beside me started shouting beyond control that his finger got stucked in the door lock. Immediately, the driver stopped. The guy was still shouting on top of his voice, on the process, i opened the car door in order to free his finger and by then i had already came down with my bag. To my greatest surprise, the guy closed the door and they zoomed off. with nothing in mind, i had to enter another car, still feeling the normal weight and size of my laptop in my laptop bag. On getting to Garrisson at the shop i was to love-vendor the laptop. I opened my laptop bag, lo and behold a rectangular interlock stone inside my laptop bag. Oh my God! it was was like hell that day. i was forcing myself to wake up, thinking i was dreaming. I nearly ran mad that day. So you better believe op story.

fellis:
These stories are all rumours. Every single person that reported them was just talking from heresay and their sources could have been lying so I still find it hard to believe.

No, not every single person.

Apart from the op, there has been at least two other first-hand victims who narrated their story on this thread. Reall all comments.

CFCfan:
Wow! You're really connected. I guess I can now refer to Tambuwal as the next governor of the great State of Sokoto....

Except he dies before the day (God forbid) he's the next Governor

CFCfan:
Nice. The Feb 28th battle between him and Shagari will be one to watch.

There's no battle. Sokoto is APC.

It was because of their likeness for Wammako that they voted PDP in 2007. In fact, Wammako was ANPP and was the governor in waiting. The old fox, President Obj, had to plead with him to join PDP and automatically gave him ticket, and relegated their already decided flgabearer, Shagari, to running mate, just because of the popularity of Wammako.

Same Wammako is in APC today backing Tambuwal.

Plus, the manner PDP "victimized" Tambuwal will curry him great sympathy in Sokoto

It's a one-horse rac. I'm very familiar with their politics. I had service year extension in the state for dabbling into their politics during my NYSC year. I have been on phone with Shagari. Wammako knows me till today as the "article boy".

As for me. I no dey do cash wey pass 50k again. Anything above 50k, transfer to your account. I no dey carry cash again.

The last time I went to buy car parts of about 600k in Ladipo Market. I no carry cash o. After negotiation, just transferred the money to his account on the spot (which can be done with gadget).

Not even because of this hypnosis, but because of the common physical robbers and pick-pockets.

fellis:
Lies. The bank workers were in on it.

Sister, this cannot be a lie. Okay, very unlikely to be a lie.

Like 10 different independent people have confirmed similar occurrence on this same thread.

If the bank workers knew, what do we say of the guy whose elder brother was carrying 58k for school fees, not from a bank, but from the house. What do we say of about 3 people that have also confirmed cases of their laptops turning into objects, same scenarios? These guys posted independently. Could all of them be lying too?

These things happen. I believe that's some jazz (babalawo aided by jinns).

Olufemiolaolu:
What is d essence of covering in public 2 exhibit self righteousness & being promiscous in secret? If you ask me d condition of d heart is d most important & not hypocrisy covering of d hair.

So every covered person you know is promiscuous in private?

I once used it when I was finding my way somewhere in Ikoyi. I was trying to locate one street.

ammyluv2002:
She didn't drag him.....her attitude convinced him that Jesus is Lord

Only that if it's the other way round, your comment will be

"He was never a Christian before"

And if na Igbo man

"Sharp man. He wan get contracts from northerners"

Within that very short time, ended up as 5th highest goal scorer in Super Eagles history.

sukkot:
day i heard mallam, emir of kano, former governor of central bank, i forget his name now. the day i saw him speak at oxford university and watched his bbc interview, i was BLOWNNNNNNNN AWAYYYYYYY. this nigga speaks impeccable smooth english. none of that grunting and groaning and stammering peculiar with our kleptocrats as they have to think very hard because their brain is slow when it comes to matters that dont involve stealing

That's Sanusi. I did not mention him because he's not a politician and they're talking about politicians here.

Funds raised from TEHN campaign to date: N1,711,628
*Opening Balance from pre-TEHN campaign: N990,000

TOTAL NGN IN TEHN CUSTODY: N2,701,628

NB: Before TEHN took over coordination of fundraising, donations were made directly into Djdola's account. The balance of N990k (post-Eruwa, post-LASU) was transferred from Djdola's personal account to TEHN on 18th November for central coordination.[/quote]

Zik was the greatest orator Nigeria has ever produced, and probably the greatest writer too!!!

And he applied wisdom, not just rambling without sense. Despite his furious verbal and written attacks against the colonialists, he was never jailed, never arrested, while less ferocious guys were even imprisoned.

He almost met his waterloo in the Federal Parliament in the 1950s when one of the top colonial guys dared him to repeat what he just said He never did.

His speeches had a way of arousing emotions. He was probably the best user of English Nigerian politics has ever seen.

Political resurgimento.

Adegoke Adelabu was another orator in pre-independence politics

[quote author=barcanista post=28585592][/quote]That wiki entry is wrong. It should be corrected.

I'm sure of this. Muktar is not Sheu Shagari's son.

Almost anyone can write anything on wikipedia. The same wikipedia that once said footballer Obafemi Martins attended Obafemi Awolowo University.

barcanista:
3. The Shagaris, Sokoto State
Alhaji Shehu Shagari (Father)- President (1979-1983), Federal Minister (1960-1965)

Alhaji Muktar Shagari(Son)- Deputy Governor, Sokoto State (2007-Present), Federal Minister (2001-2007), 2015 Sokoto State Governorship Aspirant(PDP)

https://www.sairuwa2015.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/photo-2.jpg

Muktar Shagari is not Sheu Shagari's son.

They are just distant relatives, from same village of Shagari.

barcanista:
1. The Yar Adua Family, Katsina State

General Shehu Yaradua (Elder Yaradua)- Vice president(13 Feb 1976- 30 Sep 1979), Trade Minister (1975-1976), Minister of Lagos(1960)

Alhaji Umaru Musa Yaradua(Younger Yaradua)- President(May 27, 2007- May 10, 2010), Katsina State Governor(1999-2007)

Zainab (Umaru's Daughter)- First Lady, Kebbi State (Incumbent)

Nafisat (Umaru's Daughter)- First Lady, Bauchi State (Incumbent)

An important omission. Their father, Alhaji Musa Yar'adua was the Minister for Lagos Affairs in the NPC government of First Republic.

You also omitted Murtala Yar'adua, a much younger sibling who was selected by GEJ as Minister of State in the eraly days of his administration.

Awon omo wali asiri.

Miracle. Prophecy. God Sent. Crest Fallen. Almost Announced on Radio.

All because of phone?

thegoodjoehunt3:
Are you saying Brahimi deserves that award over Yaya Toure.

In 2013-2014, Brahimi scored 3 goals in 36 matches.

While Yaya scored 24 goals in 49 games. Yaya was a major reason Man City won the Capital one cup and the EPL trophy.

Brahimi did not deserve it.

Oga, that has already won him APOTY 2013.

This is 2014. Stop using 2013 season. Plus Brahimi outperformed him in the World Cup and AFCON qualifiers, the highlights of 2014.

Don't be like Nigerians that are still talking their players' performance at Nations Cup 2 years after.

Brunel:
good evening Jarus. did you scale through the primaries for yours?

Mine is not 2015. LG elections are held after state governors have been elected.

feelamong:
BAD BELLE!

Desmond Elliot just scaled thru!!

Shit happens

otingy:
knowing kwarans (eba and 2h), tetuila will scale thru.

Who told you this?

How much does Tetuila have? Even Bode Oyedepo (Bode D Way) that has deeper pocket was not able to scale through in same constituency. After spending hundreds of millions, he didn't even get the ticket.

None of them will scale through. Trust me.

Hot weather and hot suya don't go together.

Eeser:
Yacine Brahimi? How come I've not heard bout this dude? Buh did he perform better than Enyeama at the AFCON? At club level last season and at the world cup?
Na wao...

Which AFCON?

The one that took place in January 2013, almost two years ago, or another one?

This award is for 2014. Sorry.

MysticZeus:
I'm an ardent football follower, and to think I'm hearing this name for the first time speaks volume of this award.

It means you're only a follower of EPL.

Remarkably, he's not in CAF Shortlist of Top 5.

Good development. We need to be disciplined. We can win tournaments without cheating. The last under-17 we won was by players that had 80% of them being truly under-17.


Meanwhile, e be like say this Emem career is being spolied even before taking off.

I think they should have managed it in a better way for him rather than come out to say he was dropped because of age cheating. Just say he has other commitments, so needed to be excused from camp, or something like that. European clubs will no longer be interested in him.

Abagworo:
They should have extracted information from the young man instead of killing him. Now we are still left speculating about those behind boko haram.

It will be very difficult for anyone to remember that when you're surrounded by over 200 bodies killed by these guys. The anger just won't allow anyone to reason like that.

As an ex-student of Great Ife, this is my conclusion from all accounts I have read.


1, Yes, there were protests and booing but it was not by the majority of students.

2, Majority of students were more interested in sighting the president than in protesting.

3, The Students Union did the right thing by presenting that letter. Moral suasion is acceptable form of engagement anywhere in the world.

4, While there is nothing wrong in Union leaders taking photograph with the President, even if you don't agree with his policies, especially on an occasion that is rare like that, what is wrong is the demeanour of the leaders as they were seen in the picture: opening their whole 32 and giving impression that were overawed by the opportunity. It doesn't speak well of Union Leaders of Great Ife, if anyone knows the history of Great Ife. Bamidele Aturu, a former Great Ife student union leader, refused to shake Military Governor Lawan Gwadabe on his POP day as his protest against military in 1988 when he did his NYSC in the state. This is the stuff of Ife Union leaders.

5, All accounts are correct: there were demonstration and chanting of ole by not-so-many students and there were those that wanted to see the President and didn't care about protest.

6, The Student Union leaders were only trying to be politically correct or not wanting anyone to pour sand into their Garri or believed such report could (especially carried by SR) could be counterproductive to their letter, with their press release that said those that protested were sponsored or were not students.
