Cyber crime a.k.a 'yahoo-yahoo' has come to stay since it provides a a surviving pivot for younger Nigerians, some as low as 15 years old. We have lost it totally as a nation.The values we grew up to know in the 80's and 90's have all been eroded by this generation whose quests for wealth without enterprise have no close rivals.

Why it may not end soon! The few paraded here are perhaps the unfortunate ones who have no one to speak for them. The real thick ones have become a regular means of survival to the unsrupuolous law enforcement agents. As such, this illegal trade will have no ending date in sight. Parents also have their share of the blame as some of them now see the illegal perks as a means of survival for the family. Who will end this societal menace when all stakeholders are also the culprits?

The law enforcement agencies should learn to exert same energy on yahoo boys to those politicians stealing the common wealth of Nigeria.

It's same everywhere. The concept is deceitful, it's crazy.
You can manage this by alternating with solar. Just 6 solar panels with 2 batteries[ not necessarily lithium] can sustain a normal size family in need of essential electricity needs. It's solar in the day and NEPA in the night😊

This is not a good news for PDP in Alimosho. I have known this dude since 2006 when I was living in that area. He was a force to reckon with and fought the Tinubu empire almost at the risk of his life. He was very popular and well accepted but never won because of factors we all know in Nigeria.
Lesson for me is that if this Iroko of Alimosho PDP can bow to pressure from APC, take it from me, no politician is worth dying for. Those guys who fell during those elections of his while fighting for his electoral course will have themselves to blame in their graves. Smh.

Quite surprising that they can't get him out to face the trial for almost 60 days now.
They will always trace and find a small man that insults the president's wife even into the tiniest of the holes. Unfortunately the BIG Thieves are difficult to get because they are above the law. If anyone still believes that there is equality before the law in Nigeria, then such individual should also believe the myth that Mungo Park discovered Lokoja..lol.

I hope the aircraft is blessed with extra containers for holding faeces. This food just dey too much for a traveller..lol

That's the result of the state government decision under the last administration. This is just the beginning. The entire fulani will soon take kogi over in it entirety. My pain is just that the innocent will be the one to suffer for the clueless Gigolo has done.

We need American routes immediately to pave way for cheaper flights. They still hammer us on that route, abeg/biko.

Democracy and rule of law. Taking the antecedent of his group, if it were the military, Emmanuel would have been forgotten tey tey. This is how you allow shenanigans to thrive and it then becomes uncontrollable.

It should be around 15k-20k depending on the area. That's the Abuja average price.
If you want a relief from the pain for 6 months plus, just try Garlic clove. Chew and leave it there for 15-20mins. You can do morning and evening for 2 days. You will get the deserved relief. It works excellently but you may still remove the tooth in future if you want.

This is the same Putin Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali are pitching their tents with, shey? Dey play!!.
I know the West are not the best of allies but they will be far better than Russia when the realities dawn on them. Putin is nothing but a tyrant, a despot and narcissist. Definitely his cup will soon be full.

The complete absence of ' Emotional Intelligence'.

Imagine if all youths will invest into their lives and one day be exposed to VIP like this rather than sitting somewhere in the bush kidnapping and maiming innocent people.
Education is the key and our government needs to sit up. No one with this type of know-how and exposure as a youth would ever be ready to be involved in crime to the detriment of his/her nation.

What other confirmations to prove that our judiciary is indeed not independent?

The governor is not a serious human being. The day he won at the supreme court, he was with Seun on channels tv and one his achievements on security was working to form a vigilante group with this group. Why is he denying again?

As for the FUNAM threat, not surprised because the content only exposed the ignorance of a sect further, the type that is far from modern civilisation. How on earth can someone still think that in this age and time you can use bow and arrow or even AK47 to take over territory like they did in 1700's. There are million of hectares of land in the Sahel to be taken over by them, and not where the civilised people stay. I've always wondered how a group of people with less than 30million population can always put the entire 220million people in trouble. It's high time the government deals decisively with any group trying to foment trouble in the country.

Saddening!
Two kings, same day.
Nigeria really need a robust and working security action.
We can't just continue this way.

Long overdue!
I can't wait to see him handcuffed and imprisoned.
He needs to pay for not only financial crimes but crimes committed against humanity in that state.
He's a disgrace to younger generation.

Making them more apolitical since being in Abuja has made them to lose focus, joining politics instead of doing their main job..lol.

For those celebrating the 'not too young to run act' , you can see what this dude is capable of doing. He's definitely not a good representation of young people in government. I've said it severally that this guy is nothing but a joke. At this time and age, you're banishing people to a remote place despite the freedom of movement and association that the constitution of the country guarantees. You can take your throne but can't decide where I will lay my head. There is a precedence already with Sanusi Lamido Sanusi. The affected people can fight back with a good law suit.
It's always sad when intelligent people take the side of the fence while allowing empty heads to govern them. In a saner society, this guy can only do best as a clerical assistant. In the voice of Prof. Patrick Lumumba of Kenya, ' The worst among us are now ruling us'.
EFCC should do well to lay siege on his passport and not allow him to run away after his tenure. His pending case should be re-visited so that some senses will be sent down his skull.

Nawao! Even driver that suppose drive to Lokoja dey collect N200k for flight to the same Lokoja. What is this country turning into?
I'm sure this is the norm in most MDAs and that explained why this went through. She was in Kogi already, so the payment was done, no doubt.
I wont comment much until I see similar travel plan from other ministries. I'm sure there are people within that ain't happy with the woman for this level of sensitive information to freely hit the press effortlessly.

The solution I thought of some years back was mentioned by someone on this trend. Stop eating beef! I once told people close to me that every amount of money contributed to buy cows for your ceremony is like funding your own burial, most especially in places where the wanton killings are taken place. There is a market for the goods in the south and that is why they are migrating southward. If the demand stops, the supply will also be forced to paucity. Like Fayemi introduced some years back in Ekiti with importation of foreign cows, we can raise a parallel market for beef with the locals getting involved in the business.
If it takes the blood of human to raise a cow, then indirectly when you buy and eat such you have become a cannibal. #stopeatingbeef.

Tax is like a transaction, you do your part and I do mine. In Nigeria, this is one-sided. I pay tax, I stll dig my borehole, do my road, do solar for electricity, buy transformer, NEPA poles etc. Then why am I paying tax?
Even our current minister of women affairs said she's only paying tax out of pity[ para-phrased]. I laughed when i saw her yearly income declarations.
This country is a big joke!

Best Minister thus far! Kudos to Mr Talk and Do.

Yahaya Bello, the governor that knows too much..lol. Nigeria will not know peace, which is a requite for development, until charlatans stop to occupy the seats of power. This is the end results of 'not too young to run' clamour. 'Give chance to youths', now the youths are even worse than the so-called old men. I honestly don't know why men have no conscience anymore. Is it a crime for someone to have a different opinion from you? Must death be the portion of your opponent? Power belongs to the people, let them decide who they want , and not who you feel should be there by force.

I support the chief of naval staff alongside the hopeless commander be suspended, and subsequently jailed. This should not exclude the Yeye Bello when he finishes his terms in office. His case should serve as deterrent to others in Nigeria.

The society deserves the leaders they have; same with the judges they have. Do you expect an intelligent/erudite judges when the society keep getting rotten educationally? Some cheats whom you sat with some 30 years ago in those GCE halls to write WAEC exams are now the judges of today. What do you expect? He that calls for equity must come with clean hands.

We can't wait to see the magic wand in use. I don't envy these professionals at all. But they would have their names in GOLD if they had the job done. Fingers crossed!!!

Oh no!

Who will relieve us of this tension? Nigerian football match no reach this one oh. INEC please nau!
