I beg to differ Sir.

Your type is the reason why evil abound in our society.
In order to build a sane & righteous society, everybody has a role to play.

The person who sees injustice & doesnt make a case out of it, is not different from the person who committed same.

Let's collectively join hands in building a sane, civil & righteous society. Kind regards.

Itz fine with yuh assertion..

Perhaps you got me absolutely wrong cos you barely know a thing bout me..

Cheers

Last month, i was driving through Ikorodu Road and there was the usual slow-moving traffic after Maryland. Just on the bridge between Maryland and Ojota (where the BRT monitoring team are stationed), i noticed a young boy in between the traffic lanes holding a plastic basin (usually used in hawking satchet water) that was broken, with several satchet water spilled on the ground. He looked like he was crying, and at first glance, it appeared a vehicle ran over his bucket, broke it and bursted the satchet water that he was selling.

I was moved to give him some cash, but i didnt have any on me and the traffic eased, so i had to let it go and keep moving. I passed there 1 week later, and i saw the same boy wearing the same shirt, holding the same bucket and in the same place. I immediately knew it was a new technique to dishonestly appeal to people's sense of pity and get them to give him alms.

Yesterday, i was on my way to the office from Magboro. Just after New Garage bustop and before Berger bustop, i saw another boy using the same format to collect money from people. I was irritated. I brought out my phone to take pics and videos of the boy, but he saw me and covered his face, then he moved towards my side because he wanted to stay close to area he satchet water was spilled (na him office be that...lol). I made the below video still. Notice that in the 55th second of the video, somebody shouted "pure water", and he moved towards the person and collected money.

I am not against people being helped, but it is wrong to dishonestly solicit for assistance. It is also terrible that Nigerians are becoming more and more negatively ingenious. Only God knows what will happen by the time these boys come of age and these kind of techniques dont work for them anymore. They will definitely take to crime

Mods (Mynd44, OAM4J), please help move this topic to front page so that people will be aware

The Brighton and newcastle teams are the most stubborn and disciplined team I've known in the EPL this season.

You either get a slim win, a draw or get beaten by them.. Cos they both play lovely football and tight counter attack and clean defense.

Lovely teams to watch out for👌

RIP Legend CM

Nobody cares any longer..

Thieves gather themselves to loot in the senate and lower chambers and say Hiiiiiiiiiiii.

And Hiiiiii have it...

Governors no longer care but rather after their own loot and return to power.

Zombies keep cheering up thieves in power.. Applauding them for commissioning a mere 2km roads.. I PITY YOU GUYS.

EXPLAINER: What's Happening in Sudan? (Burhan vs Hemedti)
~ Tosin Adeoti

Source: Facebook

Someone sent me a DM asking for an explainer on what is happening in Sudan in an easy-to-understand format. So here it is:

Why is everyone evacuating their citizens from Sudan?
Serious fighting is taking place in that country to the south of the Sahara.

How did they get here?
The two top generals in the country are fighting - Gen. Abdel-Fattah al-Burhan of the Sudanese army and Gen. Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo (known as Hemedti) of the Rapid Support Forces, RSF (a paramilitary group).

What? Do they not have a president to put them in check?
No, they ganged up to organize a coup to send their president away. In 2019, President Omar al-Bashir was ousted from power. Al-Bashir had been the longest-serving leader of Sudan since the country gained independence in 1956, and the people were just tired of him. He was a really corrupt guy. For instance, $130 million was found in his home. He even went to jail after the coup.

I see. So who is the Head of State?
Gen. Abdel-Fattah Burhan of the Sudanese army is the defacto leader. When al-Bashir was removed, the two groups formed a transitional coalition, called the Sovereign Council, together with civilian groups. A civilian, Abdalla Hamdok, was made Prime Minister. But two years later, in 2021, the two armed groups dislodged him when he asked for a full transition to civilian rule. The PM and multiple government ministers and officials were arrested.

LOL. Sounds familiar.
Not surprised. Gen. Burhan, the head of the army, became the leader, and Gen. Hemedti, the head of the paramilitary group, became his deputy.

Lemme guess...they are the ones fighting now?
That's right.

But how can a paramilitary challenge the army?
Because this paramilitary group called RSF is as powerful as the army. RSF used to have access to the National Intelligence and Security Services of Bashir when he was president. Hemedti, their leader, was Bashir's trusted man. Over the years, Hemedti has forged powerful ties both in the region and internationally. He sent RSF forces to fight Iran-aligned Houthi rebels in Yemen, allying with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. All for profit. Gen. Hemedti is considered one of the richest men in Sudan thanks to a range of businesses, including gold mining he had access to when Bashir was president.

Interesting. So what's causing their fight now?
In December 2022, after much pressure from the international community, a new transition plan to democracy was launched. A final deal was due to be signed this April, on the fourth anniversary of the overthrow of long-ruling autocrat Omar al-Bashir. The RSF says the army does not want to absorb them into their midst. The army says it's not so simple and that they have a timetable for the absorption. There are reports that General Burhan is not happy that Hemedti is aligning himself more closely with civilian parties from whom the civilian president may come. Burhan says he supports the idea of returning to civilian rule but that he will only hand over power to an elected government. Hemedti says he's trying to remove himself from Islamist-leaning Bashir loyalists and veterans who have deep roots in the army. There is also the question of who will become the leader of the army after RSF has been integrated into the army.

But why did the army throw the first blow?
The Army said they had to stop RSF because they were deploying troops all over the country. Indeed, no sooner had the fight broken out on April 15 than RSF claimed they had seized the Khartoum airport, the presidential palace, as well as an airport and airbase in Merowe. The Sudanese army dismissed the claims as lies and maintained that it still controls all bases and airports.

Hmmm... what's the situation now?
As of 23 April, more than 420 people have been killed, and more than 3,700 injured, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The US State Department confirmed on 21 April that an American citizen was also killed. The US isn't taking any chances and has cleared out its embassy in the capital of Khartoum. Other countries, like France, Germany, Japan, and the UK, have also moved to evacuate their diplomats. Thousands of residents have fled using unsafe roads, many to their deaths.

What about Nigerians?
Over 5000 Nigerians are stranded in Sudan right now. Yesterday, the Federal Government said it is waiting for the Sudanese Government to give assurance before evacuating Nigerian students.

Which Sudanese government?
I'm not Nigeria's foreign minister, please.

So, no end in sight?
It doesn't look like the violence is going to end anytime soon. Sudan's army has reportedly said it won't negotiate with the paramilitary forces. Turkey, the US, UAE, Egypt, and others have called for immediate peace and offered to help mediate. Meanwhile, the UN called the situation in Sudan "catastrophic." Some aid groups have also had to postpone humanitarian aid to the country because of the violence. Experts are worried the conflict could turn into a civil war — which could threaten access to freshwater in the Nile, affect gold trade, and create another refugee crisis in the region.

Well said buddy.

Say no more

Itz important you make use of the goggle before coming here to say what itz not..

No western country is instigating the fighting but those country bordering Sudan are the key players here.

Egypt ruled by General sisi is supporting the SAF for old time sake as it is said...

Libya Is supporting the RSF for arms and guerilla warfare ties..

The Saudi don't want it to escalate as there would be more Sudanese trying to flee and run towards the long Nile of the RED SEA.

The UAE is in also playing a part but for the stabilization of Sudan cos the want to tap in the mineral resources such as gold, uranium etc in Sudan and also for agricultural purpose in the future as they import most of their foods.

Get the real info from Al Jazeera network.

The country called Nigeria ain't ready for any good change whatsoever..

I am happy that Tinubu was said to have won the election by the INEC eventually..

And I know why I am happy it played out dat way... .

Be the first to blast... 2pac of blessed memory 😔

Delete b4 you get deleted..

Way to go!

A wise man once said nuthin....


😔

I hate to see impoverished Nigerians coming to defend those who looted this country so blindly without remorse.

Fvck it☹️

Man city will loose the FA cup, League, and Champions league... this i have seen! You can't chase 3 big rats at the same time, u will miss all.

They are likely gonna win one..

But certainly not the 3

Buhari should bury himself in shame,

The armed forces as a whole are just plain clout useless chasers..

The governor of dat state is nuthin but a senseless person

The northern elites are simply wicked and really hypocrites..

Above all, permit me to say that Nigeria is a qualified and certified fvcked up nation.

☹️

He's already said if he gets tired with ye trouble in Nigeria that he would leave for Niger..

You can imagine a so called leader spitting out such..😔

Itz really pathetic ☹️☹️☹️

😔☹️

Why is it that most Nigerians can not drop their opinions without first pouring out an aggressive and abusive words like" idiot, fool, yuh fada, ogun kill you "etc 🤔

These am yet to phantom really 🙃

Do you know that the average Nigerian is plain dumb as to know what they want.

FACT: 99.5% TRUE😔

Do not get this twisted folks..

The both of them are irrelevant and inconsequential towards good governance in a democratic setting ☹️
