Do they use such outside Igbo land? NO!

No, they use keke napep and okada

Pepperdemisback:
He's talking about Security and Escorts. They move freely outside Igbo land but need so many convoys to visit Igbo land. Why?

There is no celebrity of Obi Cubana's status that wouldn't need a convoy anywhere in Nigeria.

Two can play

That Bastard George Akume said Tinubu has defeated terrorism in his first year.

70 year old fool.

alsudan:
Look as this useless Asha Bugu Gulder guzzling drunk that has Guzzled Nigeria's money since 1999.

From Governor, to 3 terms in the Senate, then Minister and now SGF while his wife is a serving HoR member, but somehow can't pay his staff 100k.

E no go better for Akume, him friend Thiefninbuu and anything APC.

I had no idea Akume was this useless
This SGF position really exposed him

EponObi:
If dem call this one Twitter influencer or blogger now, his followers will start crying. Nothing Presidential about this dude, afi bi pure water.

I was also expecting him to talk about how the last administration wasted money building this bridge. He even called it "critical infrastructure", but... "infrastructure doesn't build the economy" - he also said this, as expected of someone who built zero critical infrastructure during his 8 years as Anambra governor.

Also, days ago, elete ponmo said "No Political party enjoyed opposition like APC!" Lmaooo. Why won't they when the suppose messiah, whom his followers claim to be the person to unseat Tinubu in 2027 is running around Twitter like a banger boy. Lol.



Isn't this a waste of fund? Lmaooo. We all know what we are doing. "Hey, Tinubu aka #notMyPresident please invest in surveillance equipment to monitor this critical infrastructure Buhari built for my people with taxpayers money but how dare you use taxpayers money to build coastal road for the SS region, who are the major contributor to the nation's coffers? Clown!


Personally, I think the FG should limit how they invest in the SE because you don't know when one UGM aka ESN aka IPOB girlfriend will be snatched and he will start throwing bombs as tantum. People wey dey use their parents as shooting practice on a steady. smh!

Agbado fool thinks that being a President means alienating yourself from the common man.

That is why the clown in Aso Rock has zero connection with the Nigerian population except his political cronies and Lebanese thieves.

The only time the clueless Bourdilon drug master remembers the average Nigerian is when he needs to turn useless accounts like this OP to online or offline Agberos.
Peter Obi had the rare quality of mingling with the lowest class of Nigerians.
That is why he is the PEOPLE'S PRESIDENT

Elzazzi:
It was stated in the post

It said "brief illness"

It could have been any illness and he is still very young

What could have led to the death of a 20 year old?
May his soul Rest In Peace

I wonder how the stupid Buharists will take this news seeing how it is their zombie-in-chief that Tinubu took over from

APC recommended food for Nigerians

How to survive in poverty - An APC production

Abeg next time make una dey choose better word use as headline.

Politics will be the death of this country

simpleseyi:
This one is still suffering from post election loss trauma, if he doesn't check himself, he will soon slip into depression

Idiot Agbado here to register attendance once again

When I said the initial appointment was just based on politics and nothing about merit, one idiot Agbado came to my mentions to spew nonsense.

People like agbados are the reason why it was so easy for the whites to colonize us for so long.
Follow their slave master like zombies and praise whatever he does. People without a mind of their own.

Even this re-asssignment is still political but at least it’s still better than that Ogun-Oyo basin appointment.

Obakoolex:
This monkey never heal from their Messiah coming distant third in the last election.

I no abuse you o
Na your name I call out

First of all, Agbado fools go and learn what is called "distant third". If we were not practising a simple majority system, that election would have gone to a runoff.

Secondly, mocking Peter Obi with Yoruba tribal marks when you are a Yoruba man is their height of stupidity.
Imagine ridiculing your own ethnic group because of PO.

Everybody just dey use Kano Traditional institution play politics.

Whenever you encounter APC supporters, do well to curse them.
You will be helping this country in a little way

This guy?
Smh

helinues:
Ac no be for poor man

Thunder fire you.
AC that is a basic home appliance don turn luxury.
Next thing una go say gas cooker no be for poor man, make we go use firewood.
Idiot APC supporters

Good, so you see we are back to your first goal post. And according to you, if I come to you now and say JAWBONE would you like to have this keke napep, and you say yes because that is all I offered, then you had no choice. Does that mean you didn't consent? Consent is not about being offered a multitude of choices. It is about not being under compulsion to choose even the solitary option before you. No was always an answer even if that meant having to fend for themselves. By the way the money for these marriages is not even coming from the State. According to the speaker, it was from a donation from an individual.

Secondly, these 100 girls are not the full set of girls who were considered. A list of 270 names was submitted and the speaker said these were ones chosen. So you don't even have the full picture but you are insisting because you have already concluded and now you want to make the evidence fit your conclusion. Just like I said of the minister, why can't you dig for facts from the other side?

PROGRESS!!!

You are more likely to get justice from the Italian Mafia than the Nigerian Judiciary.

Just so you know, Yahaya Bello's wife was recently dropped for consideration for a High Court position.

Monkey Banana Judiciary.

Since Tinubu won.
Reno has changed his Baban Riga to Agbada, started wearing Fila instead of Hausa Cap and has been glazing the Penis of Yoruba people.

He has also increased his anti-Igbo agenda.

A dog that needs to be thrown a bone.

That is what that clown called Omokri is.

And I maintained that those girls were married because of their plight. Taking advantage of someone's situation is not offering them an option.
The Speaker said they were married off to alleviate poverty. I have a problem with that statement.
If the State cannot think of any other option to help orphaned children than marrying them off

SmartyPants:
Of course, you've shifted the goalposts. First, it was they were not consenting, now it is they are consenting because they were not given other options. As if women where you come from don't equally consent to marriage out of poverty. All this hypocrisy will take us nowhere.

They were not consenting if marriage was the only option they were given and not what they chose.

The possibility of 100 girls all deciding to marry at the same time is debatable.

It seems the decision to marry was taken on behalf of them and they had no options than to play along.

SmartyPants:
All this shifting of goalposts by asking jamb questions makes no sense. These are adults, not kids.

Adults make all sorts of decisions every day. Do you go to peoples' weddings to ask all those jamb questions?? The essence of being a consenting adult is that you are entitled to your own reasons for choosing marriage, whether as a poverty alleviation scheme as is common all over Nigeria, or for any other reason. Are they of full mental capacity? Did they consent? If yes, mind your business instead of inventing false reports.

There is no shifting goal posts.
The girls are being married simply because they are orphans.
If the speaker had relatives among those orphans, he would not allowed them to be married that way.

In Kano, their Hisbah commission married off some people months ago and nobody cared.
This case looks more like an auction than a marriage

SmartyPants:
I have clearly stated that the speaker said the girls consented to the marriages. It is not for you miles away to declare an alternate reality when you have no such facts. And that makes the minister's conduct all the more difficult to understand because if anyone is in a position to get the true facts, she is! Minna is a 2-hour drive from Abuja, so if she had sincere concerns, I would expect that she or members of her team would have been on the ground to satisfy themselves that the whole episode is being conducted in line with the principles of human rights enshrined in our Constitution. Having failed to do so, she had absolutely no reason for filing her suit and you have absolutely no reason to allege that there is a lack of consent involved in the marriages.

The girls consented to the marriage because that is the only option that was thrown in their face. That is not consent.
100 orphaned girls were individually interviewed and they all agreed to marriage because that is what the speaker told them they would do for them.

Were they given other options? I don't think so.
Also have they met these men previously and discussed marriage with them?
What about pre-marriage medical checkups? Are the men financially capable of marrying them?
or would they just be auctioned off to the men on the day of marriage.
What is the level of education of the girls?
Many questions must be asked before you throw them into something as serious as marriage.
The Speaker said he was marrying them off to alleviate their poverty.
That is a very stupid reason to give. Their are many other ways to help them alleviate poverty

SmartyPants:
The speaker has come out to clarify the situation. I wonder, by the way, whether you heard from any of the ladies before you swallowed the initial story hook line and sinker. Did you? Even the original report did not as much as quote any of the girls, which is just the basics of good journalism. So how did you believe them? Learn to be fair and reasonable.

Let the girls speak for themselves. They are not commodities to be bought and sold.
If they are adults already, it still doesn't mean they want to be married.
Marriage is between two CONSENTING ADULTS.

Also their plights as orphans should not be the factor for their marriage. Throw them into homes where they would become glorified sex slaves and child bearing machines.
If the girls do not have an education or a vocation, that should be paramount.
Unless the girls themselves decide that marriage is all they want, they should be given the freedom to choose their path in life.

Good. Until binance pau every fine imposed on it by the government.

What fine?
What is the Nigerian Government charging fine for?

Okpebholo go and debate and share your ideas.
Stop all this agenda that appeals to emotion.

You have been calling Asue Ighodalo Lagos bobo, that he is from Yoruba Land.

Asue is an Ewohimi man from Edo State.

Just like APC at the Federal Level is known for instigating tribal and religious sentiments, Okpebholo campaign has purely being emotional sentiments without ideas.

I'm starting to think the APC candidate is not a very brilliant man so he has chosen to tow the path of character assassination and bigotry.

Obaseki is not on the ballot!!!

Your competition is Asue Ighodalo and Olumide Akpata.
Go and debate them.

Let us start with
Seyi Tinubu $11m mansion in London
Zainab Tinubu's house in New York
Or is it Tinubu's house in properties in France

Ologbo147:
is this a thread to Demarket Benin city? The last time i checked, house rent is costlier in Lagos, Ibadan and port harcourt as compared to Benin city. You can still get 2 bedroom flat for four hundred to five hundred thousand In most part of Benin city. It is not the same in the other cities, the price of foodstuff is at most the same with these four cities with most products even higher in Lagos and port harcourt. So don’t make this about Benin city, compare kaduna and port harcourt. And see it is even higher. It is about northern cities and southern cities

400 to 500k for two bed and you say it's cheaper than Ibadan. Lol
First of all, bag of pure water in Ibadan is 300 naira
400 to 500k will get you a decent 3 bedroom flat in the centre of Ibadan.
Cup of rice is 250 to 300 here.
I have lived in Benin and Ibadan so I can tell which one is cheaper
