Anyone that knows him should advise him to extend the walk to Bayelsa. Mumu man.

They were evils like you and turn by turn your turn is coming.

Can you just imagine what you're saying about the dead? So how will such statements encourage people to your religion?

Hopeba:
All you fools saying he was wrong to go on a convoy.. pls won't you do more if u in his position amidst the numerous security issues we have in Nigeria? It's clear someone at the top wants to kill this Man and God decided to show him mercy. If you fault him for anything

Thunder will fire you..

Who faulted him for moving in a convoy? Even I myself will move in a convoy if the money is available. I don't have to be popular to do this. It is for the safety of my life. From 2003-2008 , I travelled not less than 50 times in a year. But since the past 8 years of this administration I've hardly made any journey.

AlphaTaikun:
Awesome picture. That's in the late 1990s.

Teni's father who hailed from Ekiti State was a fearless man who was a Nigerian Civil War veteran as an army officer.

I still remember the day he was shot dead in the early 1990s by gunmen in the Ire-Akari Estate area of Isolo, Lagos State where his massive mansion and his group of schools, Apata Memorial were situated. Teni's dad had a habit of arming himself with his guns and then taking on armed robbers who occassionally terrorised Ire Akari Estate, but they finally shot him and the news of his death spread like wildfire because he was a popular millionaire and school owner.

What? Her father is the owner of Apata memorial? I know this man that year o!

Akurakambe:
But the videos of his speech is saying otherwise. I heard when he said in his speech that what northerners want is a president that's from the north and not a Yoruba or igbo person. Atiku is tribal b1got

Very shameful speech from the self acclaimed unifier.
God will continue to expose Tinubu and Atifiku. Shameless old men.

The man is an idiot. You wasted your data listening to his speech. I wouldn't advise that. Is it not the same Atiku that fought with GEJ saying it was the turn of the North and that power should return to the north. Now it's time for the south, he suddenly remembers pan-Nigeria. What a bigot. Ask around how he behaved when he was customs comptroller and you will quickly discard the name Atiku from your vocabulary

Do me a favour by also state the prices of those commodities in 1999 when PDP took over government.

What are you driving at? Even in the entire PDP administrations combined none of those listed commodities rose at such high percentage witnessed in the APC. In the entire PDP administrations fuel did not increase by up to ₦50. In only Buhari's tenure it had increased by more than ₦100. There is no basis for comparison. That is not to say PDP is a saint

meetme01:
This or that, students will bear the brunt.

Ngige's ego spoilt the discussion. You refused the Education Minister's intervention and failed to allow Gbaja's meeting to settle the issue at least till May.

The same way he handled the Doctors issue. Now, they are leaving in droves. The man is a bad manager. He talks and acts before listening. To much gra gra.

The lecturers are also ready to leave in droves especially the young and brilliant ones. Those old and archaic lecturers will continue to teach with old syllabus with no 21st century input.

Our lecturers are not leaving anywhere. Where else can they teach apart from 9ja? See even if you are the president today, you will never agree to ASUU demand considering the state of the economy. Even the leadership of ASUU knows government will not agree to the demand before they started the strike.

Wisetrue99:
Unserious government!

You see, I don't like reading all these their staged unintelligent tabloids, e dey decrease IQ

A government that knows what should be done and refuses to do it, bidding useless time to start a portioning blames can also be likened to a terrorist organization

Why is it that intelligent report works in the South but fails in the north

This regime seems not to know the landscape in the north well but knows every inch and corners in the south

They siphon monies through these terrorist, live extravagantly yet claim to be broke

Terrorists are well paid even more than lecturers and you wonder why the strike is still on

Evil is not supreme, goodness is not helpless

We really need to know the true identity of those in power currently holding this country hostage!

In fact I will really see anyone that believe this tabloid as a foolish person. If you want to know the true position of things, ask any military personnel preferably from the rank of 2nd Lieutenant and above. One thing that the this tabloid and frequent tabloid aims at covering up is that it has been proven that the FEC has been approving contract for agencies that in most occasion are owned and run by one man and they have connections with ISWAP. The Dubai government and other sensible government already knows the Nigeria government is sympathetic to Boko Haram and worse still they are sponsoring it with tax payers money. The big question if the military is serious, who is powerful enough in the FEC to approve contract to an organisation that has links with Boko Haram?

IrepChrist:
The reason why lecturers are demanding a better welfare is because they are under paid. Government owned schools are not completely free. Allow state government to manage tertiary institutions within their domain. ASUU should be decentralised.
Each state government should be accountable.

If allowing state run tertiary institutions is the problem, even state government tertiary institutions are also on strike. This strike did not affect only federal University.

It's not compulsory to wear any cloth to church. If God wanted us to wear clothes he would have brought you to this world with special clothing. You are free to go to church naked if you are comfortable and OK with it.

The south doesn't have a slot if it's not micro zoned to the south-east. The last PDP president was from the south south. So, why should wike want the presidency to himself instead of supporting a candidate from the south east. Why is it only convenient when he wins but bad when others win? What happened to his brother Secondus, why is Secondus not in the mix if not for wike's miscalculation and selfishness. He should learn how not to fight with his brothers from the northern PDP guys

If there is any PDP guy thinking along this line then I say it's pure miscalculation and foolishness on their part. This is no longer about Wike but about the party's chances in the south. Anyone with a brain knows there is no way the south will support a party whose structures are made up of the north. Considering the marginalisation they have suffered under this present administration especially regarding employment. If they want to fool themselves that this is about Wike they can wait till Election to learn their lesson. Ask yourself if APGA present a presidential candidate today, do they stand the chance of winning in the North? Why?

ogmask:
Atiku is much like wike in terms of saying one thing and doing a different thing. Recall how wike openly said he would support whoever emerges as the candidate irrespective of whatever happened on that day. Recall, too, how wike promised to go back to his house should he lose the election because according to him he was not in the race for the position of vice presidential candidate.
Today he nor only dey struggle to be vice he also say he nor go support the candidate.
In the end, they are all same just that wike is loud.

I don't blame Wike for anything he is doing today. If Atiku was in the position of Wike, he would have done worse. In fact when Atiku was in this same position around 2014 or 2015 he left the PDP with his gang, Saraki and the others. How do we logically think PDP will campaign and win in the south? If you collected their presidential slot, collected the chairman of the party slot. An average southerner already sees the PDP as a northern party. If they are not careful, this action might end the party as it is clear the south is OBIdient and the APC still have looted funds to help them sustain some positions in this election. Anyone who understands politics knows Wike is fighting for the PDP to win because he had helped his own guys to obtain senatorial candidate and other positions and if this action by the PDP which is already angering the people continues he and his people will loose out big time

Mindlog:
Marriage is practical and I know what it is! If they cope well sleeping away from you when they visit relatives, does that not give you an insight?

I didn't say they don't cope well when they sleep alone. If you read what I wrote you will see where I said they slept on their room before I changed strategy. Don't worry, from the way you sound you don't have a child. You are still talking based on what you read. Like I said when you start a family you will see how what you're saying isn't practicable. Even Bishop Oyedepo once advised against sleeping in different rooms with your kids. Now look at an example of something that happened one day. There was a little hole in the net in my passage. My room is opposite my children's room. Somehow a bat squeezed itself through that hole and started flying around the passage. By now there was no power the passage was dark but there was a lamp in my kids room and a torch. At about 2am or thereabouts my son woke up to poop. He had to pass through the passage to the toilet. He saw the bat flying around and ran back to his room, shut the door and was calling for me and my wife. We had shut our door and was asleep. He kept on calling and calling till his sister also woke and joined in calling. When he could no longer hold it he had to poop in the room. I later woke around 3 or 4 and killed the bat and woke my wife to start cleaning up the mess. Do you think I was happy? Events like these always come up when you have kids at home. I just thank God it was not something that would take their life. That is how I would have woke to hear a different story

Mindlog:
Co-sleeping was a topic in my Masters' class in Clinical Child Psychology and the focus was helping children to transition into "owning" their own rooms and achieving sleep independence. When your children go visit relatives and have to sleep over, how do they cope?.

I don't care what you read in your Masters programme, marriage is practical and no amount of formal education can cover the challenges you are likely to face. When they visit relatives which they do always, they cope well. Except the relative in question is not a parent and personally I would not allow my kids stay over with someone who is not a parent.

I'm older than my youngest brother by about 16 years and with what he experienced staying alone in his room, I actually vowed not to allow such nonsense repeat itself in the family. It happened that my brother was given birth through CS and immediately after delivery the doctor informed my Mum he didn't cry early enough and that at the age of sixteen he might have some complication in his health. As early as 2 years I witnessed him fainting but I didn't know this was frequent when he sleeps. Because we didn't detect on time this frequent seizure that only occur while he sleeps led to schizophrenia at 16. because of this

Mindlog:
Whenever you want to get intimate with your spouse, how do you get your children to stay away from your room?

When you are married you will know the answer to that. The kids have their room and they know it. Must you always get intimate at night when they sleep? During the day, they are in their room playing. They only come in from 8pm till dawn. They also know to knock when coming in because the door is always locked when I'm alone with my wife

Michelle70:
i don stop to argue with u.

we all have our individual preference.

U can stick to ur million people ways

Oga stop arguing with people. Most of those guys arguing are not married hence they say what is normal but not practicable. I stay in a 3 bedroom with two kids but I stay in the same room with my kids. I also used to have the same mindset that the kids should stay in their room but reality made me change my mind. Most kids less than 10 are always afraid of the dark and knowing the kind of country where we do not have light, if you can always attend to the kids when they need you Goodluck. But if experience teaches them a lesson then they also learn from it. I've seen a situation where robbers broke into a flat and entered through the children's room while the parents escaped through the ceiling and called for help. Sometimes your children needs you, they keep shouting and crying while you are fast asleep and have locked your door. If you can cope with keeping kids in a separate room, fine. If not don't criticize those that do. Those saying "install CCTV in the children's room", I want to ask if the CCTV will not use power. Do we have constant power to achieve that feat?

Starboytwo:
Yeah We should try be first country in Africa to be nuclear

we can't hold that position as it has been held by south Africa.

HumbleOptimist:
She's a Minor and an Introvert. Always indoors. Thanks for your input.

I'm not a doctor. So it will be good you see one preferably a neurologist. But I'm familiar with most neurological problems as most of my family members have suffered from it.
1. How was she born? Is it through CS or normal delivery.

2. Has she ever had any kind of seizure like fainting, epilepsy (or related illness), convulsion, etc.

Having this answers will help and I might be able to suggest what you will need to do. If your family is covered in any health schemes such as NHIS, cost shouldn't be a problem.

On another hand if she is an introvert her behaviour might just be normal since you said she talks(responds) well.

yinkus6750:
Why can't rotation of power be part of the Constitution?
Inclusion of all geopolitical zones in power will further strengthen the unity of the country.
Enough of Fulani dynasty and emilokan principle.
Single term of five years on a rotational basis would have been fair enough.

Even if it's in the constitution the politicians will not obey it and nothing will happen. Federal character that is in the constitution is not even obeyed and nothing has happened so far. Even the Federal Character Commission itself, the employment there does not follow the rules of federal character and nothing has happened. We are acting as if everything is OK. It was in Buhari's administration that the DSS employed and the list of employment was skewed to favour an ethnic group, yet no one spoke. Please let's rest abeg. The failure to put this zoning in the constitution will soon trigger a bigger problem for Nigeria.

Gaddafi’s appearance was his first in the 40 years of his rule at the time, and he broke protocol by stretching his 15-minute speech to 90 minutes.

The then Chairperson of the African Union – who was wearing a brown traditional Libyan outfit with a black African continent brooch pinned to his chest – was introduced as the “Leader of the Revolution of the Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, President of the African Union and King of African Kings”.

It took him 17 minutes to get to his main point calling for an African seat on the Security Council. Waving a copy of the UN charter, he denounced the permanent setup of the Security Council which he says encourages the treatment of other countries as “second-class citizens”.

“It is political feudalism for those who have a permanent seat … It should not be called the Security Council, it should be called the terror council. It did not provide us with security but with terror and sanctions,” he said as he ripped a page out of the charter in a show of defiance.

“Permanent is something for God only. We are not fools to give the power of veto to great powers so they can use us and treat us as second-class citizens … Veto power should be annulled,” he added before tossing the UN charter over his shoulder.

Among his demands, he called for the relocation of the United Nations headquarters to Libya to avoid jet lag and insecurity in reference to the September 11, 2001 al-Qaeda attack in New York.

Gaddafi wanted the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King to be thoroughly investigated and proposed that Israel and the Palestine be transformed into a single state called Isratine.

He supported the Taliban to establish an Islamic state and called for the trial of those who “caused mass murder” in Iraq. He questioned the origin of Swine Flu and demanded 7.7 trillion dollars as reparation for colonialism in Africa.

your statements are illogical to my own perspective...aka illogical being,u dont have any idea of who u are making reference to.All because he is merciful remember he can take ur life now and make u non-existing,if not for jesus death on the cross God would have killed you for your transgressing,inadequate statement<full stop>

There is nothing the dude you quoted said was wrong. He said Mary was raped. Is that true or false? In the Bible before God destroyed the world and saved Noah, Angels of God came down from above and had sex with the beautiful ladies on earth hence they begat giant. So it's not new. The area of contention is that you might say Mary was not raped, but even you know that would be a lie.

SlavaUkraini:
Gani Fawehinmi would surely be Disappointed and rolling in his grave..

Because his Protégé Festus Keyamo has sold his Conscience for a Morsel of Bread from the Table of Tinubu....

From being a human rights activist to now become the Spokesperson for a Notorious Drug Baron that is destroying Human lives with the illicit drugs that he smuggles into the nation...

Festus Keyamo.... Shameless thing.

Before Gani died there was an interview he stated that Keyamo was already working for politicians. So Gani won't be surprised

Mhykel217:
Do u know how foolish u sound rn

The guy you quoted asked a very potent question and I'm shocked you can't answer something you claim to know. Tell us the danger in family planning. There is no need to start shifting the goal post as to if it was my daughter or not. Tell us the danger cause from what I know there is no danger. Of there is let us know

Who is David hundeyin?

SmartPolician:
If Peter Obi loses, the sufferings can only get worse and more people will leave the country while those who cannot will keep begging online or commit suicide.

A Peter Obi's loss is a huge loss to people, who for some reason, believe that there's still hope in living in Nigeria, but that won't break us because suffering and smiling syndrome is already a Nigerian identity.

To all OBIDIENTS out there, we should uphold love for country over love for our candidate.

You can continue to uphold love for your country. In the event that Peter Obi looses which is highly unlikely, my next action will be to leave the country. It's a good thing we still have people like you though.

Toks2008:
It is either resource control by states or regional as it was in the 1963 constitution

Try to be very clear when you write something of this magnitude. Not for you to start calling the mods to post nonsense to the Front page. What do you mean when you say regional as it was in 1963? Are we still having regions now or state? Also are you suggesting the 36 states be scrapped while we revert back to regions? Try to be clear.
