I just hope it’s the real armed robber they arrested, if not the person is in for it.

When phone tracking was involved? Nah! I doubt 5ge people arrested are not at the least linked to the robbery.

TheEdoHeritage:
The Benin Traditional Council (BTC), under the authority of His Royal Majesty, Omo N’Oba N’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo, Ewuare II, CFR, the Oba of Benin, has reaffirmed the Oba’s authority over market leadership in Edo State and formally rejected the introduction of the Iyaloja title, describing it as alien to Benin tradition and potentially disruptive to public peace.

In a public memo dated October 7, 2025, the Palace reiterated that the Iyaloja institution common in other parts of Nigeria has no foundation in Benin tradition. It stressed that the Benin market leadership structure, known as the Iyeki system, operates under long-standing cultural and spiritual principles directly tied to the Palace.

Palace Explains Iyeki Market Leadership System
The Council clarified that in Benin custom, Iyeki (market leaders) are chosen by market women and later presented to the Palace for confirmation similar to how village heads (odionwere) are approved before installation.
The Palace does not appoint or impose Iyeki on any market, nor does it recognize any overarching or “honorary” title such as Iyeki General, which the Iyaloja concept implies.

Council Warns Against Politicising Markets
The Benin Traditional Council Iyaloja statement warned that politicising market leadership could endanger public order. The Palace urged the Edo State Government to respect long-established cultural systems when considering market reforms.

What has Jesus done that he was killed?

Ask the bible.

CommentatorPro:
For decades, Nigerians have been told that politics is for politicians. But looking at the current state of the nation — the economy, power supply, insecurity, and corruption — many are beginning to ask a serious question:
Should Nigeria continue trusting career politicians, or is it time to let technocrats take over?

Politicians often argue that leadership requires experience in governance, understanding of party politics, and connection to the people. They believe technocrats — no matter how intelligent — lack the street wisdom and political structure needed to govern a complex country like Nigeria.

But many Nigerians disagree. They say politicians have ruled for over 60 years with little progress. From one administration to another, we keep seeing the same faces, the same promises, and the same failures.

On the other hand, technocrats — experts in economics, finance, and management — have proven that competence can bring real results. Examples like Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Akinwumi Adesina, and Peter Obi have shown that leadership doesn’t always require long years in politics, but the ability to manage people and resources effectively.

So the debate continues:
Do we need more politicians who understand the system, or more technocrats who can fix it?

Some say Nigeria’s problem isn’t who rules, but the system itself — corrupt, wasteful, and resistant to change. Others believe a mix of both worlds — a smart technocrat who understands politics — might be the real solution.

Whatever your opinion, one fact remains clear: Nigeria cannot afford another round of trial-and-error leadership.

So, let’s hear from you
If you had the power to choose Nigeria’s next leader, would you go for a career politician or a proven technocrat — and why?

Nobody can fix Nigeria. Not even God can fix Nigeria. It's simple

SadiqBabaSani:
The President of USA has an IQ of 73.

Leaders of countries around the world often make their IQ known as part of a strategy to impress it on the citizens to show their mental capacity .

Does anyone have an idea our President’s IQ, I mean President emilo**n

At least he is better IQwise than peter obi. We are lucky obi didn't get that 2023 presidency win.
