Am waiting for such judgements in Lagos , Osun etc

Its not easy to get such in APCs strong holds because the people there actually voted for APC just like the people of the SE SS votes for PDP.

So far the judicial system has been quite fair. Individuals that are sacked seem likely to be sacked. And those that lost elections lost in the opponents strong hold most times

The real yahoo boys are those that steal our sweat and hard work.......

Politicians steal our God given resources......

I believe we can all agree that its more cruel and evil to steal a person's sweat and hardwork.

Both are evil but lets not allow ourselves to start believing nonsense......

When internet scam started it was directed at the whites but now internet scam has come home....and they are not stealing from the politicians but from the poor school teacher who just received her pension....or the poor office clerk who has saved money over the years.....and that young budding enterpreneur trying to make it in online import transactions

LONDON — British Prime Minister Boris Johnson faced defections from senior Conservative lawmakers Thursday as a backlash built and opponents planned legal challenges to his decision to suspend Parliament to push his Brexit plans.

The resignation of Ruth Davidson, who quit her role as leader of the Scottish Conservatives, along with a senior Conservative in the House of Lords, was a sign of rising worry within Johnson’s ranks that the move to suspend Parliament was sidelining Britain’s elected representatives during one of the biggest political crises in generations.

Elsewhere in Europe, policymakers were jolted by the move to suspend Parliament for five weeks, which some of them said brought Britain closer to a sudden, cliff-edge Brexit that analysts say could spark food and medicine shortages. Some diplomats said they were increasingly convinced Johnson would stop at little in a risky gambit to force both Europe and his own rebellious lawmakers into a compromise.

The resignations came after protesters jammed streets in cities around the country, including London, Edinburgh and Manchester. Outside Parliament, demonstrators chanted “Stop the coup!” A petition calling for the government to stop the suspension surged past 1.5 million signatures. Johnson’s adversaries promised to appeal his move in the courts. Brexit opponents were strategizing about how to use their dwindling time in Parliament to halt the relentless move toward an uncontrolled break from Europe.

Johnson sparked a torrent of criticism with his decision to ask Queen Elizabeth II to suspend Parliament for five weeks, dramatically shortening the time lawmakers have to try to block a no-deal Brexit.

Johnson has said Britain will leave the European Union by Oct. 31 with or without a deal. The majority of lawmakers in the House of Commons are opposed to leaving the bloc without a transition deal to smooth the way.

Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn said that when Parliament reconvenes after summer break Tuesday, he will move immediately to pass legislation to keep the chamber open and to prevent a no-deal Brexit. He joined other opposition leaders in issuing a joint statement Thursday evening demanding a vote on suspending Parliament.

“We will be back in Parliament on Tuesday to challenge Boris Johnson on what I think is a smash-and-grab raid against our democracy,” he told Sky News. “What we’re going to do is try to politically stop him on Tuesday with a parliamentary process in order to legislate to prevent a no-deal Brexit and also to try and prevent him shutting down Parliament during this utterly crucial period.”


Opposition lawmakers will have to move fast if they are to have a chance at success. Once Parliament is suspended — in this case no later than Sept. 12 — any legislation in the pipeline is typically killed off, and lawmakers would have to start again from scratch when Parliament resumes Oct. 14.

In Davidson’s careful resignation letter, the charismatic leader avoided linking her move directly to Johnson’s decision to suspend Parliament, instead focusing on family issues. But she also mentioned the “conflict I have felt over Brexit,” and the British media quickly linked the departure to Johnson’s strategy, given the timing. Davidson has also previously been lukewarm on Johnson — she supported his rivals in the leadership contest — and in the 2016 E.U. referendum she memorably clashed with Johnson, claiming that his pro-Brexit side had told a series of lies.

Davidson resigned from her post as leader of the Scottish Conservative Party, which she had held for eight years, but said she would stay on as a member of the Scottish Parliament. Her departure from the leadership role is a major blow for the Conservative Party, whose fortunes she helped to turn around in an area of Britain where the Conservative Party was for decades a toxic brand.


Davidson’s resignation came shortly after that of George Young, a former cabinet minister who left his post as a government whip in the House of Lords.

Johnson’s move “risks undermining the fundamental role of Parliament at a critical time in our history,” and reinforces the view that the Government may not have the confidence of the House for its Brexit policy,” Young wrote.

On Thursday, David Lidington, the effective deputy prime minister in the previous administration of Theresa May — who remains a nominal ally of Johnson — said the suspension was “not a good way to do democracy” and “sets a very bad precedent for future governments.” He told the BBC that if the opposition Labour Party had done something similar, “some of my Tory colleagues who are cheering at the moment would be turning purple with rage.”


Other opponents are hoping to use the courts to stop Johnson from suspending Parliament. A cross-party group of more than 70 lawmakers took their legal challenge Thursday to Scotland’s highest civil court. Gina Miller, the business executive who in 2017 won a high-profile legal challenge over how the British government could start the Brexit process, has filed an application at the High Court in London seeking an urgent review of Johnson’s decision.

Johnson’s government insists that it is not doing anything unusual and that it is normal for a new prime minister to suspend Parliament ahead of the queen’s speech presenting the country’s legislative agenda.

It generally does happen every year, but the length of the suspension — the longest since 1945 — and the timing have drawn widespread criticism.


Johnson’s allies — the ones who were not quitting — were quick to dismiss the concerns Thursday.

Jacob Rees-Mogg, leader of the House of Commons, brushed off what he called the “candyfloss of outrage” over the temporary shuttering of the legislature, using the British term for cotton candy. “I don’t think there is any attempt to railroad,” he told the BBC on Thursday, insisting Johnson simply wanted to get on with his domestic agenda.

But one top Johnson lieutenant, Defense Secretary Ben Wallace, was caught on camera acknowledging that Johnson was struggling to push through Brexit without a majority.

“Parliament has been very good at saying what it doesn’t want. It has been awful at saying what it wants. That’s the reality. So eventually any leader has to, you know, try,” Wallace explained to French Defense Minister Florence Parly, caught on camera ahead of an unrelated meeting in Helsinki.


A government spokesman said later that Wallace “misspoke.”

[Boris Johnson seizes momentum on Brexit with combative move to suspend Parliament]

The British Parliament voted down the Brexit deal three times, ­mostly because of the “backstop,” an insurance plan that would guarantee an open border between Ireland and Northern Ireland to prevent a return to violence there. Under the plan, the United Kingdom risks getting stuck inside the European Customs Union, limiting its ability to conduct independent trade deals.

European leaders were mostly quiet about the British drama, wary of being sucked into a domestic political dispute and already skeptical about the chances that Britain would manage to agree to a transition deal before it departed. One senior diplomat, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive assessments, said that because a no-deal departure was the default expectation for many E.U. policymakers, the fight over Parliament actually felt like a distraction.

And in Germany, one prominent ally of Chancellor Angela Merkel indicated that Johnson’s tactics may be hardening attitudes against him.

“If the rationale was to scare the #EU into renegotiation by removing #parliament as the final obstacle to #NoDeal #Brexit, the #UK government has been gravely misled,” the chairman of the German parliament’s foreign affairs committee, Norbert Röttgen, wrote on Twitter. “The executive denying parliament its democratic say at this decisive moment, cannot be rewarded by the EU.”

Its funny how many say this guy is similar to Trump both in appearance and character

Its even possible this python never swallowed a she goat....hell! Someone could even have gone online to browse python pics and concoct a story around it....

Cos we all know that snakes live on nairaland front page....

Anyway i rushed in here to see obvious signs of a swallowed goat like people were eager to have seen in the snake of yesterday.......disappointed!

Its not that deep most times...

A girl knows in less than 15mins of meeting you if you are the kind of guy she wants to be romantically (not necessarily sexual) involved with...it doesnt take too long to know if he checks most boxes

Its not practical to keep a guy u have interest in in the friendzone cos u can loose him easily if he realises he doesnt have a shot

The friendzone is for 2nd choice guys......the kinda guy she isnt originally interested in......but can be a backup plan, or if she's hasnt found her real type after 6months.....or the one she later decides to sha manage maybe out of pity or something......these are the ones that spend eternity trying to win her heart

If a girl that many guys are chasing just accepts a new guy s proposal quickly, it just means she rilly liked him.......the ones in the friendzone are the 2nd class/2nd choice.

Human beings dont legit treat people they really want roughly for fear of loosing them

I admire your naivety.

Its a blanket statement that will have many exceptions..... afterall some people commit suicide....some people will rather die of hunger than beg or do some menial jobs.....some people will rather stay jobless than beg for a job....some people will rather loose a good relationship than to simply say sorry.....

Such happen.....but such proud thoughtless people ready to risk it all on a whim are the minority....

Probably Makinde didnt think it through before saying this.... the basic salary of our federal lawmakers is about 750k but they go home with 15million and everyone already knows that.....

He isnt helping his image with this half truth....

Just like the economic importance of every TV show and nollywood movie...... the producers get paid and the actors get paid..... the bright side of business here is that instead of paying the individual actors the money is cummulated and given to just one of the actors in the name of a prize......

Its just the usual show biz....

Like superstory and others people pay to advertise and the producers cash to the bank.....

The show has no duty to promote morals culture or anything anymore than nollywood or hollywood needs to..... its just to put on a good show that people will be attracted enough to watch


People always complain that money is being pumped on the winner instead of supporting education or something else. Thats funny cos BBN is show biz not charity and they will only put their money where they will make profit.

More nigerians will prefer to watch BBN than cowbellpedia stuff so why on earth will anyone pump money there. Its bad for business.

Even critics will rather watch a movie than watch a maths promoting show so it is bad for business to put your money on shows people wont watch.

People always hinge the absence of God or the insufficiency of Christianity on failures, misfortunes of christians, unanswered prayers, evil in the world and the general observation that the average christian life tends to be no more different than the life of the atheist muslim or buddhist.

People hardly tell muslims to quit or doubt their religion due to unfortunate circumstances. And this i believe is because Islam hasnt sold the idea of an all involved caring supreme being. Thus its a given that God gives and takes. He intervenes when he wishes to and is silent when he wishes.

People continue to worship faithfully; buddha, krishna despite passing through the same conditions christians pass through

Christianity has however sold the message of "the God of the superman" and this always comes back to haunt the faith whenever things go wrong.

The message has recently being about ability to do absolutely anything and triumph in wealth health safety and all.

Its one thing when people cant experience such in their lives but when the pastors that claim to experience it completely are seen helpless in many situations then people begin to question if its really true.

I believe God completely. I just wonder if we have made priorities of things God did not prioritise.

@Ubunja I admire your writing and cognitive skills. You are an intelligent person.

I agree with many parts of the impriting hypothesis but i believe it is being stretched beyond its limits. This is because all laws have limits of effective use.

We must take into cognizance the fact that the guy a girl allows to deflower her is very likely "her type". Thats usually the kind of guy she will always like and her strong emotional connection to the guy is in many cases the reason she allowed him to deflower her. Thus she will continue to like guys like that.

If the government wants to stop the wastage of forex on importation, they should simply ban all imports across the borders.

Restricting forex by the CBN only leads to scarcity of forex thereby increasing black market sales at much higher prices......consequently we may be exchanging 1dollar to 600naira soon and eventually have to devalue our naira again. This effectively erodes half of all savings in naira.

Does the president lack advisers or is there something i dont know about economics?

Many men are slandered and destroyed by lies of rape and varying levels of immorality at different points in their lives.....

And the whole world assumes them guilty without hearing their side of the story....

Only few like Neymar, Pastor ibiyeomie, Apostle Suleiman are eventually vindicated after their names and integrity are dragged thru the mud.....


For every guy out there.....it could be you tommorow and the world wont care if u r innocent.....

For all those guys saying i stand with dakolo without any evidence.....sha dont cry wen ppl do same to you....

For the ladies.....keep standing in solidarity.....afterall it could av bin you

Theoretically removal of subsidy frees us trillions of naira that should theoretically be used to improve the economy....

practically its not true. removal of subsidy frees up trillions of naira to be shared by the ruling class with the masses being poorer for it.

Nigeria once had such free money that could be used for development. it was called the excess crude account.....and one day the ruling class decided that the money should be shared.....and thats how every kobo saved from subsidy will be shared too. lets not deceive ourselves.

Its either the cabal in petrol import steal this money or the ruling class steals this money. either way we wont get more than our salaries at the end of the month

eventually its either corruption plus our expensive government plus allowances to traditional rulers bankrupt us or subsidy does. removal of subsidy wont stop that bankruptcy

When has waking up and floating your record label a crime.. How many years will someone be under you for you to release him.?

all that is determined by the duration of the contract. you can't sign a 4year contract and float your label/break the contract after 2years na....its unfair to the record label.

Record labels pump millions into the careers of many artistes, They alone bear the losses for artists that don't blow . why then shouldn't they reap the rewards if they blow??

Is it possible that my car mp3 which is never removed from its outlet was a cause of the battery drainage?

Against the backdrop that i am currently quite busy to spend time with mechanics and autos in diagnosing this problem....... How effective can i be if i get my battery charged and constantly disconnect my battery wen i park the car to avoid discharge...... On the chances the alternator isnt charging the battery. How long can i use this manoever before the battery discharges again?!...... Thanks in anticipation

I dont have a multimeter..... Clearly i should get one

Lol..... We are talking about a car..... Camry 05,i suspect the alternator is not charging the battery but how do i diagnose it?

The mechanic i saw just concluded that its the battery and he will charge it but i guess there is more to it..... Thats why i am here to get concrete opinions and suggestions before i see another mechanic. Thanks boss

I have not driven my car for three weeks, i however warm it for at least 5minutes and sometimes 20mins daily.... Today my battery failed to start the car.... Another battery started the car without delay..... The battery is only 7 months old....

What could be the possible causes of this problem and how could we take better care of our batteries in the future?.... Thanks in anticipation
