NairaOcean: In a disturbing incident captured on camera, an alleged Nigeria Police officer was caught on video threatening a man with chilling words: "We go just kill you throway." The confrontation unfolded as the officer and his colleagues brutalized the man for recording them during an argument.
The video, which has since gone viral on social media, depicts the harrowing scene where the officers are seen physically assaulting the man while berating him for filming the encounter. The victim, whose identity has not been disclosed, can be heard pleading for mercy as the officers continue their assault.
...And some gullible people are asking stupid questions on this thread like: "why is he videoing the policemen?" As if it's a crime to video a policeman.
They must have conditioned their minds to be comfortable with suffering.
Congratulations to RMD even if we can conclude he has a high taste for ugly and bald-headed women.
Such a handsome alpha-male should be seen with the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Genevieve Nnaji and Omotola.
Now he has five children all looking ugly like their mums.
Tufiakwa!
You have every given right to post online anything decaying or nauseating that floats in your head, but please understand that civil, educated, smart, and wise people don't go around posting how other people should make their marital choices (particularly public figures). I can only suspect that, given your comment above, you are unmarried. Grow up please and let RMD, his wife and his kids be. If you have nothing good to say, make sure you peg your lips firmly. Ok?
Queengee: Indian managers don't know exact meaning of being manager. In their heads, they literally own you; they don't say no to clients and then literally overload the workers. They need soft skills training and if this does not work, they should get kick on their ass.
I think it's because of the way they were brought up. I mean, if you study their culture, you'd discover most of them lived hard knock lives that could be likened to slavery. They were over worked when they were at the bottom of the ladder themselves. Now that they are managers, old habits die hard.
I once had an Indian boss that had his education in the U.S. He wasn't really a taskmaster to me when compared with his Indian colleagues in the company (not that he was perfect; he had a poorly managed short fuse for the slightest error). I guess he was different because he didn't grow up in India.
My advice on how to manage them is: get focused, don't just work for them for the pay you're getting paid for. Get ALL the experience you can draw from working with them because in as much as they are noi so special when compared with Nigerians (intelligence-wise), there are a lot of things you can learn from them. There's a reason Indians head some of the biggest tech firms in the world - it's not fluke!
Melagros: I've tried to modify/edit the thread but I couldn't: (please the mods should help) KWARA STATE: is Saraki vs Lawal. Not Saraki vs Lam Adesina.
Thumbs up for owning up as regards the error. I was about to point out the mistake too but well done.
Sorry o, did they inflate the cost of the SUV from N160 million to N160 billion? I thought the total cost for the law makers' SUVs amounted to N58 billion. Have I missed something?
It's best we all enjoy every moment we've got with our loved ones because you never know when it's going to be your time to go.
Thank you M. Perry (Chandler Bing) for putting smiles and laughter on our faces.
Thank GOD they even did a reunion video (i.e. he and Jennifer, Lisa, Courtney, Matt, and David) before one of them passed away. Please, go see it if you haven't.
DabuIIIT: Wow! She was really not that real corrupt Nigerian. She was receiving international cuts not even up to $10k! She must have been lured by the real corrupt movers.
Two other Nigerians that stood to gain, a yoruba and one northerner who was close to the late former petroleum minister Rilwanu lukman who had oil well and who also co signed the deal,nobody is saying anything about them!
If it was Igbo people or someone like Deziani that were involved, hypocrite Nigerian saints won't let us hear world.
They should not clean up that environment and watch what will become of that place.
Lagos is our heritage and we won’t allow anybody be it omoluabi or omo atounrinwa to spoil it.
As for the alaba intl market, LASG should demolish the 2x4 shops there, erect standard structures and lease out to the good people of SW, SS, North & MB at subsidized rate.
Lagos must become that Dubai everybody wants to visit.
🤔🤔🤔 You did not mention LASG should lease the proposed erected structure to SE 🤔🤔🤔
Reference: Because we don't care, because we are not focused on governance. It is just politics and religion and tribe we are experts in. We sit by and think the elite will arrest themselves, try themselves and imprison themselves.
It is the people that are the custodians of institutions not political leaders. We are the watchdogs and are supposed to speak up and speak out when these institutions are abused for whatever reason but the Nigerian is not focused and objective, colouring everything with emotions and sentiment always.
Look Mister, Mr. President will look to consolidate power soon and he will have to negotiate with the very class of people responsible for the state of Nigeria in other to remain in power and possibly extend his stay beyond 2027. This where the problem will start.
I was in discussion with a person who is well versed on what happened in the tail end of the last government concerning gross mismanagement in one of the MDA's. Terrible heists through all manner of schemes. These are the same people that have the biggest chips with which to bargain with any government to remain and continue.
The situation in Nigeria is critical. The country is bleeding badly and some just don''t seem to care.
If you asked the typical Nigerian if he would want a better country in exchange for his states's representative in an over bloated, burdensome, costly cabinet he will readily agree but only if those who are chosen are the best of the best, guaranteed to deliver. But can any President ever chose the best..... no.
Well, even though you deviated significantly from the crux of the matter, I still agree with you. Remember, that as nothing to do with the cost-saving measure being taken by the President.
If that is where he chooses to start the pruning, it's better than never trying.
On the issue of demand for accountability in governance, I like the way you pointed the finger to yourself and I to wake up. Not the government.
It's our responsibility to demand. I do that whenever I get the chance. Do you?
Sirmwill: This man must have passed through hell 😑
As much as seeing this pictures pains my heart, theft is really not the option.
No matter the level of suffering orrr neglect Orr frustration, there would always be people facing worse and harsher situations and did not opt for crime. The people who set the man ablaze are mostly pained and it is justifiable.
I don't think you read the piece. The thief almost killed the innocent woman.
What are you saying? Please, pardon my passion but read the piece again and then maybe you will understand my disgust for his actions.
Shameless people. They are part of the reason Bubu was calling Nigerian youths lazy. They still had the effontry to protest after their indiscipline. Mscheeew.
2mercy: The Nigerian Institute of Public Relations, NIPR, has disclosed that Ajuri Ngelale, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is not its certified member.
DAILY NIGERIAN reports that the law establishing the NIPR makes it a criminal offence for any individual to practice public relations without the necessary certification and licensing.
Speaking with PRNigeria, the newly elected governing council members under the leadership of Dr. Ike Neliaku of the institute disclosed Mr Ngelale, without the basic knowledge and requisite training on PR, is ordinarily not ‘fit’ to hold the exalted position he now occupies in the Tinubu Presidency.
“We have checked our records and membership register and we could not find Ajuri Ngelale in the list. One can be a good writer, broadcaster or journalist but there are set parameters of knowledge a communicator needs to acquire including qualification before he/she can practice Public Relations in Nigeria.
“The law establishing NIPR provides laid-down rules about appointing spokespersons which also makes it a criminal offence for anybody to practice Public Relations by whatever name without certification by the Institute.
“In fact the NIPR act stipulates punishment for illegal practice including imprisonment, fine, or both,” said one of the governing council members who spoke in confidence.
This discovery is coming after the presidential spokesperson goofed in his recent official statements.
Mr Ngelale had recently committed major blunders when he claimed that President Tinubu was the first African leader to ring the bell at the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations, NASDAQ, during a visit to the United States.
The presidential spokesperson had also made a similar mistake when he claimed that the United Arab Emirates had lifted the visa ban on Nigerians after a bilateral meeting between President Tinubu and UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
The Presidency later acknowledged it goofed in both instances as UAE did not issue any statement on the Visa ban while former President of Tanzania, Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete, and other notable leaders had rang the NASDAQ bell before President Tinubu.
Wodu89: And when people advocate assistance for the needy under you, you begin to lash out all sorts of talks. Easy to say things when one isn't in the position of their followers
If census were taken from pastor's with very poor financial welfare who live miserably, then we shouldn't say such without first providing opportunities to build their life financially one way or the other. Tl
That's pastor's not even talking members.
When I was a baby Christian I listened to the speech and words of ministers, as I began to deepen root in Christ,I noticed I'm to listen to the actions of any minister and not their talks. No one would taint themselves in their speeches. Hypocrisy everywhere
When we rather spend billions on chairs and buildings and neglect issues like financial assistance for education and health, we know that the god of this world has grabbed us on one side.
If talk isn't backed by frank active actions, then talk is hypocrisy
All of the whole financial rascality that poor people don't get financial aid is to keep them at a level that they will never rise to challenge number one position and that of offspring. So followers are in a slaves position not just momentarily, but generationally.
And under the guise of our tainted.image, we neglect the sheep, their pains and their cry's. Your reward is in Heaven indeed
Your comments only show that you're frustrated and have been misguided in thoughts.
Do you have any idea of the much he has given to people, even to those that are not his church members?
I will advise you to refuse joining the attackers of men of GOD even if you have a grievance against them.
guobe: From boys to men there was a drink called Goldspot and olo.Kids then love the drinks but they faded away fast. Indomie generation and Genz will not know what these drinks look like.
You should have put Bramma Gurana instead of Limca and Gold spot.
