Ekealterego: Hardly anyone will talk about this tragic event because these kids are not rich kids...
They will only talk about it if there is any political clout, elevation of celebrity status or advertisement that will result from discussing about it.
The police invaded this school shooting recklessly at kids who just witnesses the death of their school mates.
Consider the trauma these kids are experiencing.
But some women can storm Dowen College bc of the death of one rich family child. Poor people Unite ooo
BafanaBafana: Clean the bathroom, get bedsheets for your bed, introduce cleanliness and civilization to the community. Do they farm there? You can go into massive farming. Farmers are making it big time. Do they have football viewing centre there? Do they have enough machinery for milling grains? When a Chinese man leaves China (city) to Nigeria (village) he introduces the civilisation that wasn't there before and makes it big time.
Oga stop comparing Nigerians with Chinese in this matter. Chinese can secure soft loans from their country & live well in Nigeria villages even Cities with it. Can such things happen in Nigeria?
Fatbam003: I recently picked up an appointment with Oyo state government as a state secondary school teacher but alas! I was posted to a village in saki .From my house to saki is about 5hrs then from saki to the village is over 1hr on bike . The condition is very unpalatable.. No browsing network, poor light and poor leaving condition . I don't think I can cope again. All means to secure transfer back to Ibadan are abortive as the village is in dire need of teachers .The salary is not even enough to travel 3 times in a month ,my only thought is that it's a govt job but it's a very hard environment and it's very depressing. have some attachments.
Those are the 'Other Nigerians...that I am writing about in my new book. The students are not those Dowen, Atlantic, Hope, Chrisland or other high brow Colleges for the super rich but they also have their story to tell. Take heart brother. My own daughter from Lagos taught in the same type of School in Akwa Ibom State. We are all Nigerians you should know.
tranxo: Funny how the woman, despite this happened to her own child, kept quiet.
If this woman had spoken out with this energy she is using now to shout on the counselor (whom I don't necessarily blame bc how could he have spoken when he was an employee), Sly may just be alive.
This woman knew the 2 incompetent male staff yet kept quiet. Principal told her about the video of her son's bully, yet she didn't raise alarm.
See how the counselor was shut down. We may never get to hear all the secretd he would have revealed in this video.
Exactly my brother. Don't mind the woman jare. In a sane country, she equally has some case to answer. How could such happened to your own child & you kept mute until now?
dalass: The mother that's talking now, why didn't she shout when it happened to her son
Like she said, it could have been her son that's dead now! She's crying now. She should have cried out earlier about the cult activities against her son then. She even said it's on the net
With such evidence, awareness could have been created and the outrage would have stopped the nonsense....it could hàve saved Sly his life.. There she was, calling out a paid employee who was under an unconcerned management, while she a concerned parent would have been in the best position to shout it out
God bless you my brother. She left what she could have done & start blaming the poor counsellor. That's women unnecessarily out burst & sentiments. She should equally be arrested for concealing the vital info as well.
Lixusheng: Yeah.. He went through hell before he died.. There was a conquest he did in port harcourt den.. After victory he was partying and baba said to a german reporter.. Wen we r in biafra land.. We shoot at tins dat moves and tins dat didnt move.. It was aired and d wirld saw it as mass genocide.. So Yakubu sacked him and replaced wd Obasanjo who carried out Operation tailwind withd marine commando to end the war..Oga, will you stop falsifying history? How can you prove that he killed Isaac Adaka Boro? Do you have real evidence to proof that? I still kept a copy of an interview held with Adaka Boro's first daughter-Esther. You may wish to contact me for a scan copy if you so desire. Always avoid being sentimental . He might have gotten his own weaknesses & faults any way. So do everyone living on this planet. Only God is infallible. Thank you. Get in touch with me thru 09023357333 (WhatsApp) or joefelin@yahoo.com if you care to.
This Adekunle also killed Adaka Boro of blessed memory, Adaka boro helped naija force capture d waterways frm biafra forces and he became more popular dan Others, Adekunle saw dis as a threat, well i knw he got his mandate frm gowon to kill him becos if dey had allowed Adaka boro.. He would have created naija delta republic again.. Becos he was d hot headed type
Conrod: The irony of surviving the war and finally surrendering to hunger and poverty,....his last days was a living hell,according to reliable sources.
He fought the war as his duty demanded. He did not start the war. Nzeorgu & coy including Ojukwu did. He never hated thr Igbos or anyone. In fact posterity has it that he once rescued some IBO soldiers when being led to the East then. Anyway do you know how your own end shall be? Good luck to you.
lapazi: You’re missing the point. The shutdown is to enable further investigations with having school physical activities interfering or tempering with evidence. In as mush as we don’t have the full details of the shutdown, we can’t say the school has violated it in anyway. My take- as long as the govt has not totally revoke the license of the school, going online to complete its session is completely reasonable and understandable!
This is a simple case I don’t know why the media is sensationalizing it, I hope we don’t because of our actions stop the Bereaved family from getting the justice they deserve.
If I were the school, first head of the school must chop cane (fired and handed to police) I didn’t say owner o, owner fit no even know Wetin dey xup. The bereaved family should open a go fund me to get the best homicide lawyers in this country and sue anyone involved! Let’s be guided!
Go fund me ...for a family that could afford sending its ward to a 1m/semester school. Hava Oga he reasonable nau. Where there are lots of ..Out-of-School children out there?
kingawothefirst: If the Igbo man does not kneel down, if the Igbo man does not prostrate then what do you call this?
Don't mind them jare. Arrogance as usual. Chest beating though I respect Ex Gov. Ezeife a lot. But we have to be critical critic of a critical situation. What roles did an average Igbo man played during June 12 struggle say for the exception of few ones such as Olisa Agbakoba, Arthur Nwankwo, the ex-military administrator that passed on recently etc. Was it not Chief Arthur Nzeribe that started the wahala with his ABN mitigation? Was Daniel Kanu not leading the 1m march for Abacha?
Gadafii: Lots of kids die every week in agege, mushin, and other slums due to forceful initiation into cults, just like this latest victim, unfortunately we don't get to hear about it, cos they don't have people to make it trend, lots and lots of them die
Make authority handle this matter, all these are not neccessary
God bless you my brother. I am very sure that all these notice & brouhaha is to a large extent bc the dead boy is from a very rich family & the school is also an Ivy League one otherwise most of these commentators would have been quiet on the issue. I heard the mother of the dead boy calling ....awon aiye...for protest. Would she have joined such protest if the child is from a poor family? You sent a 12 year old boy to a 1m/ semester school without any guidance in the whole city of Lagos even if the school is located in a high borough & opulent area. May our good Lord comfort the bereaved & may the soul of the departed lad rest in peace.
This video reminds of the soap opera..the rich also cry.. May God comfort the family & sincere RIP to the dead boy. But wait, if this had happened to a common citizen, would the boy's mother join the protest? How many such protests have she attended? I truly agreed with the Igbo's saying that ...every dead person look like a log of wood until it turns to be one's relative (s).
omenkaLives: Exactly. No one has weathered the kind of political storm Tinubu has in his political career, and he does so in utter silence.
Imagine what he went through under pdp in the hands of Obj. Couple of years without a penny from the federal purse, and a "forced" alliance between some of his lieutenants and Obj/PDP in 2003 which resulted in the decimation and near total take over of his political Empire.
Gentleman didn't throw in the towel, neither did he run around town with a bullhorn screaming blue murder. Rather, he silently went back to the drawing board, picked up the pieces of what was left of his political strength, rebuilt the opposition, routing the ruling party in an entire region in what could be termed a political revolutionin the West, and ultimately clinched the most prized political asset for his party- the presidency.
Tinubu is a legend in his own right, but I don't expect "those people" to acknowledge that.
The question is ...why did Obj seized Lagos State Allocation (which was later released during Gov Fashola's regime any way )? Tinubu if I could remember unilaterally created additional Local Govts Area without regards to the Nigerian Constitution. Other Gov even in PDP did same and they were asked to reverse their decision bc it was against the Nations Constitution. But Tinubu refused entirely. Lagos State later went to Court to challenge Obj & the matter was resolved politically to LCDA. Incidentally, the current VP was the Attorney General in Lagos State then. Can any State Gov do the same today under PMB & PYB draconian rule? Be the best judge.
Okwyjesus: Which lead. He is dragging Friday as work free day for Muslims. He belongs to those school of thought that believes moslems must equate all priviledge western education gave Christians
Exactly my brother. You are too smart for this generation. A bottle of chilled Heineken for you joor.
[quote author=wwwihy post=107995536] “He (Tinubu) just came to visit me but actually I have two of them (presidential aspirants) that I have earmarked right from the beginning and I made a vow that anyone of them who came to ask for my support first is the person I would support. Tinubu is the first person.”
Tinubu has been patient enough;
In 1993, Tinubu supported MKO In 1999, Tinubu supported Olu Falae In 2003, Tinubu supported Obasanjo In 2007 , Tinubu supported Atiku and gave Atiku platform (Action Congress) to contest against Yardua In 2011, Tinubu supported Jonathan In 2015, Tinubu supported Buhari In 2019, Tinubu supported President Buhari In 2023, Everyone must join hands together to support Tinubu[/quote]No be everyone, na everybody. Here was a man that supported Tanbuwa to become the Speaker of House of Assembly a position that was zoned to SW. Thank God, the same Tanbuwa later disgraced him by returning back to PDP. We Yoruba are waiting for his declaration. He shall gear wen.
ManirBK: May GOD bless our Gallant and committed Governor, The truth is always biter.
Who is your gallant & courageous govr if I nay ask? Was he not the one that mounted the rostrum at Ojota,Lagos in 2012 to advocate that fuel then should not be more than N45/litre? What has now change ?
UTILITYMAY: Please just focus on your current work and forget about their threats. If they were the one to sack you, they won't give you notice and nothing will happen. They won't even care of the inconvenience(s) a loss of job would cause you. Now they are on the receiving end and they are threatening you. My man please focus and grow at your new place of work jare!
My comment is based on the information you provided. If you are sure you don't have any of their property with you and you did not steal. Then no cause for alarm. You have already forfeited half month salary and some savings, what then do they want?
This is how you people misadvised people to their detriment. Just comply with the terms & conditions guiding your previous employment bc the new Coy might treat you shabbily when disengaging you once it is thru with you as you may be seen as an irresponsible fellow. Remember that rain can beat a person to enter a house twice. Good luck.
Okemmuo: Lol...south west. A Nigerian military president once said, if the Yoruba people beat the drum of war, he will relax and unerplexed. Cos the war has ended even before it started....����
And what about the one said by another Military ruler that ...give an Igbo man money & they can sell their brothers, sisters, children & parents as well?
Timekeeper: Congrats to the best man that will make impact in Anambra.....

Good one. Thank God you read Banking & Finance. Just send it to Prof Soludo. He was a former CBN Governor & you just congratulated him for winning Anambra Governorship election.
That's why your dad need to send you to good school or you need to stop these social media news for information...
For your likes and Ibos here
Ask your daddy at home about these and tell me later if BAT is politically greedy or not:
...In 2006/7 BAT obtained senatorial form to go to the senate BUT later gave the ticket/form to Ganiu solomon GOS.
....in 2014 BAT had a plan to be VP with PMB but saraki and Co in APC said Nigeria can't have a Muslim Muslim ticket BAT had the influence to pursue his ambition but he allowed them had their way !
...BAT could have normited his wife who was a Christian but he didn't
...BAT normited Osibanjo who is from Ogun state but was one time commissioner under BAT
BAT is going to contest in 2023 and he will win Even if it's Muslim Muslim ticket
Una go get headache tire
Pls can your daddy ogogoro drunkard allow a man from Imo becomes commissioner in Anambra??
And that's one of BAT's political mistakes. What significant roles did Osinbajo play in June 12 struggle that Kayode Fayemi, Gen Alani Akinrinade, Dele Momodu & others if I may ask?
It’s not even guaranteed that the whole of Southwest will vote will vote Osinbajo not to talk of Tinubu.
The Southwest are are already getting disenchanted with Tinubu’s overbearing attitude.
For Osinbajo, some school of thought in Yorubaland are already asking, “why always Ogun”?
From Shonekan to Abiola to Obasanjo and now Osinbajo. Why always Ogun? That alone might cost him some votes.
Now, outside the Southwest, where else would the votes come from? Northwest?
The big question is can Southwest and Northwest votes alone guarantee the presidency for the Southwest? No. This is even using the assumption that the Northwest will vote a Yoruba man over a northerner.
Let’s imagine Tambuwal who is from Sokoto in Northwest gets the ticket, do you think Northwest votes won’t be divided? No matter the loyalty for APC.
Now, imagine Atiku gets the ticket again, that means Northeast votes gone for PDP, North Central divided 70:30 in favor of PDP while Northwest where APC vice presidential candidate might come from might divided 70:30 in favor of APC.
Then we come down south: the entire SE/SS is sure to give bloc votes to PDP plus some Southwest dissidents.
Where are the numbers?
Thank you for this very important observation. You even omitted Awolowo. From Awolowo to Sonekan to Abiola to Obasanjo to Osinbajo. Haba. Aiye yin ni gbogbo Yoruba wa ni? That was even what Chief SLA Akintola fought for. You removed him by Fiat only to bring Adegbenro (an Egba man from the same axis) & the man asked... why not an Ijesha or Ekiti or Ife etc person. Thank God my people are now seeing the light at last even if it is over 50 years.
onthehill: Ikoyi Building Collapse: It Will Be Tough To Find Survivors At This Time - Sanwo-Olu
Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has said that it would be tough to find survivors at this time from the rubble at the scene of the Ikoyi building collapse, IgbereTV reports.
The governor said this when he visited the site last night. He was asked by newsmen what the chances are to find survivors since the last time a survivor was brought out was more than 48 hours ago. Responding, he said
''It would be a tough one. It would be really really tough. It would be extremely extremely tough to imagine that we could probably still have survivors at this time."
What a foolish question from the journalist in the first place? Can any human being survived for so long inside the rubbles of the collapsed building? Nounsence.
