Tomorrow someone will open his mouth that he uses to eat massa and drink kunu to say that the judiciary is his headache in fighting corruption. Now u see the prosecution failing to follow laid down procedure to tender evidence in court. A diligent defense counsel caught on it and objected accordingly and the court has so upheld. Naturally the court will not countenance such or attach any probative value to evidence not properly tendered. Those that do not understand the judicial and legal proceedings will come out and say that it is because the judge was appointed by PDP or by the former PDP govt, especially if with diligent defense, Metuh is discharged by the court. They forget that judicial proceedings are not cut and nail and when they are faced with the inability to follow due process and secure a guilty verdict, they say the courts are biased or compromised. Some will probably come and ask for the High Court to be scrapped as they foolishly demanded same for the Supreme Court because they did not allow illegality to stand as was about to be done by the Court of Appeal. |
weedcrusha:You have ended up still playing the 'mine is better than yours' game which is a complete waste of time in the grand scheme of things. It will be foolhardy for any serious government to site projects in erosion prone areas without carrying out feasibility studies and arresting the cause of such incidences. That is essentially what I have said, that concerned government agencies need to be alive to their responsibilities and address the problems. It is a little myopic of you to sit and say if Abia has 1500, then Anambra must have 5000. That is the statement an uninformed ethnic bigot like yourself will spill out. Face your matter and leave others. After all this thread is about a place in Lagos which someone was concerned about and posted so when did it become a thread for comparison b/w the SE and SW? It is a common problem and focus should be on addressing it. |
Chinedu Takes Chukwuma Inside His Parents House After Chinedu had taken me inside his parents house,he called his own lovely dad by his nick-name,"Ochiagha",and immediately, his father came out from his own room to answer him. As little as I was,such an attitude surprised me. Yes! it baffled me owing to the fact that my own dad could never act so simple and humble like chinedu's father had done. "My friend why are you shivering like this", Chinedu's father asked me immediately he came out. I could not speak a word due to many reasons. It was my dear friend Chinedu that answered him given what I had already told him outside. "No responsible man would send a little child like this out of the house by this time of the night",said chinedu's father,after he had been briefed by his own son. Later,i was served a food to eat by chinedu after he had persuaded me. I ate the good food and we all slept. In the morning, chinedu's father woke us up for morning prayers. In the middle of his prayers,he preached about: obedience ,forgiveness,humility,and love. I listened with rapt attention as chinedu's father preached. I related his four major preaching points to my own father's life style, and inferred that such characteristics were not possessed by my own dad . In my mind,i had imagined already if I was a son to this noble man _ a man full of humility,obedience,love,and other attracting qualities as opposed to my own daddy. After the prayers, chinedu was given some money to go and get me some drugs to take So as to ease the pain of the injuries which I sustained from the beating of my life which I received from my dad. Chinedu later came back with the drugs, and I took the drugs for complete one week in chinedu's house where I stayed as a refuge until the issue between me and my dad settled after a few king's men in our general family had intervened. To be continued. |
All some posters have succeeded in doing on this thread is pointing out a common problem that affects the Southern part of Nigeria. There is no need to come and start trying to say one's place is better than the other as regards this environmental hazard. The question should now be: What are our leaders doing to address this mess? What measures are being put in place to arrest these dangerous developments? This should let u all see that when u sit behind your keyboards and call the SE an erosion-ravaged area and all whatnot, you are only being the proverbial ostrich hiding one's head in the sand while your arse is out in the open for all to see! These developments are not hidden, it is out in the open so get real and look for solutions rather than engage in this pissing contest that takes one nowhere! |
Oh my God! Even the devil needs a refresher course on lies cos clearly he's losing his place as the father of all liars. His protégés are fast overshadowing him! |
asadike:Chai! Nne iji ya! Gwa ya okwu maka ihe gbasara ndi Igbo n'ere ya ahu oku! |
PentiumPro:What is your problem really? Are u an Igbo trader or a tout with the 'honour' of harassing business men and women for levies in market places? Would it kill u to acknowledge d idea as a good one worthy of proper implementation and emulation and stop at that point as in ur first line? Did u have to show your baseless bias and unprecedented hypertension over anything Igbo? How do u even sleep? Anambra is 97% traders by what statistics? And if that be the case, did they beg u or d govt for bailout funds due to inability to generate, collect and deploy internal revenue? With ur area that supposedly has more Professors, what is there to show for it? Grow up please! |
deadie:It's his style and certainly has no effect on governance which he has been voted in to deliver. It doesn't reflect on u in any way either so bridle ur tongue and understand when insults are called for! |
twinskenny:Hey...are u my twin? Lol |
This and many more reasons give further credence to the constant demand to separate from this unholy alliance called Nigeria. If there is so much sensitivity over a trip to Israel then u can be sure that the sensitivity will go into overdrive over the mere existence and breath of Christianity in Nigeria. There is a dark cloud rolling across and putting on more steam as it approaches. This division must happen so that we can adequately defend ourselves as a sovereign nation with patriotic citizens and soldiers. We cannot continue to remain stuck in a space where soldiers and armed security forces gladly turn their weapons on peaceful and unarmed citizens just to court the pleasure of the current ruler. |
Such a shame...Nigeria is in auto-reverse. |
God bless every part of our homeland, the land of the rising sun! |

If Tompolo had thrown his support behind the APC and allowed them to rig Bayelsa elections to their satisfaction would the aides have been withdrawn? Is it not when they charged him to court as a way of punishing him for not playing into their hands that the order was made to withdraw his aides? I still maintain that the practise of public officers guarding private citizens is obnoxious and should be scrapped but be honest and see this for what it is - political witch-hunting and a fight for the soul of the Niger-Delta to continue to bleed for the pleasure of Northern Oligarchs whom a certain section have willingly handed this country over to. yemre: |

Godiloveu:Same way other aspects of governance should not suffer because the President is fighting corruption and recovering funds. In this case however, one must come before the other. The pros and cons of such proposal must be weighed before it is even considered enough to go to the press with. If adequate security along with every conceivable proactive measure is not in place and u clearly admit they are not, we have no business making such proposals or commending anyone who does. |
darlingbobo:Did u demand this position when Buhari was among those appointed by Boko haram to be their spokesperson when the government of the day tried to seek dialogue? The law is meant to ensure a balance of fairness. With all the security apparatus and public funds at their disposal, the prosecution must produce the one it has accused and not harass his legal representatives. |
Exactly! Yet some ne'er-do-wells turned around to say that she complained that she was sacked because she was Igbo. A woman that is already assured in her success would not have made the kind of statements she made unless she was sure of herself but wicked souls chose to label her. I always say that Nigeria has a date with the truth. Liberty90: |
Aufbauh:Is it not only logical that u for once stop and ask yourself, why is it that these same people that ur likes call proud and chest-beaters keep complaining about one particular thing? Could it be that there is really something wrong? Is there anyone that just likes to complain for the hell of it? For once, stop and think. |
sarutobie:I just wonder! |
Godiloveu:You do realise that Nigeria is already in a precarious situation as it stands now. If u agree we need more security personnel/gadgets for proper scrutiny (even though these are more reactive than proactive measures), is it not only proper that such measures are put in place and effectively working before u throw open ur borders and eliminate immigration restrictions for countries that have known presence of terrorist groups? Should u shut the barn after the horses have escaped then come back to cry foul? Cast your mind back to a few months ago when a known terrorist wanted by international security agencies was nabbed enroute Nigeria...was it not because he had a Nigerian visa in his passport we started hearing of it and questions were asked as to who granted such person a Nigerian visa in the first instance? When u take out those restrictions what do u think will happen? How do u know his next destination in order to activate security protocols where possible? Yes, if terrorist wan enter dem go enter but don't make it easy for them! It is possible to have good commercial/foreign rlations wth these and other countries without throwing immigration to the winds! |
popcykaylah:Um sorry, but who killed the 9 people? Under what circumstances? Was the clash between two armed groups ie the Army and the Militants or the Militants merely sought to attack unarmed civilians? |
The day security agencies learn to take responsibility and do their jobs diligently without looking for citizens to bully in the process is the day Nigeria will be on her way to effectively fighting crime and corruption, So long as they are able to get away with shoddy cases and investigation even on to inept prosecution in the courts particularly because they are only jumping to please any President in power rather than in keeping with the independent functions of the agency (they are at the mercy of the President anyway), this fight against corruption is unfortunately, dead on arrival at worst or at best a media jamboree and an exercise in futility. They are investigating someone, their processes are not in order, they do not have the supposed accused in custody and now you expect the defense counsel to do the job of the prosecution? Very funny! |
I have always wondered at the same thing. Buhari has supposedly been upset about the budget fiasco and has gone as far as sacking the former Dg of the Budget office and replaced him with another. Ministers are on record to have denied certain aspects of their budgets in the course of defense, Lai Moh'd himself inclusive. With all of these Lai comes to say there was no padding because it did not exceed 6.08 Trillion Naira. So where is the disconnect from? How does he even defend that stance about not exceeding the said amount? Was there an agreement that this amount must be expended beyond which it is then padded? Is the budget not supposed to be an estimate of expenditure requirements? So how can Lai explain this statement by his principal that those who tampered with the budget will be dealt with? What is his explanation for using the DG of the Budget office as the scapegoat for this mess of a budget we are currently faced with? |
Without even going into the merits of the matter before the commission as to who did what and whether it was lawful or not, it is odd that the central figure who is the leader of the Shia group cannot be accounted for and some find it palatable and normal. He must not necessarily be released from detention even though his rights have been trampled upon having been detained so long without formal charges. If the parties involved are truly interested in peace and truth finding then the security agents should be able to produce him and hear his part of the story as a material witness. The fact remains that he is recognised by a set of people as their leader and they must be able to ascertain the status of their leader whether living or dead. You cannot beat a child and tell it not to cry or how to cry. |
Hmmm! In this time of terrorism someone is trying to further weaken our already wacko immigration policies. I hope we can see clearly o! Leaders that do not think things through.. |
When people complain and point these glaring inequalities out, rather than calmly ascertain the merits of such complaints and demand for corrective measures or just keep quiet and let those affected make their voices heard, some spineless oafs will start talking about how Igbos always play the ethnic card or always claim victimisation. Same thing keeps happening yet u expect them to keep quiet and accept crumbs when they're entitled to more for purposes of fairness. They get tired and decide to get out of the sham of a union, they get branded as traitors seeking to divide an entity. Where was the unity in the first place? The truth must prevail. |
I expect our 'amiable General' to personally attend and supervise the process through all stages until a UN Secretary is named. ![]() |
