Politics / Re: Rivers: Court bars PDP Govs, NWC, BoT from dissolving pro-Wike state EXCOs by lagosrd: 5:07pm
The musical system should be held responsible if anything happens in rivers. All these kind of court orders will only result into violence and loss of lives and the government is just watching only to say they have deployed so so and so. Wike should be called to order to allow the governor some breathing space. He doesn't own anyone in rivers . He served as a governor and his tenure has ellapased and should leave. At least he is not the first governor and won't be the last one

Foreign Affairs / Re: Hungarian Shell Company Behind Pagers Used By Israel In Lebanon Terror Attack by lagosrd: 10:26pm On Sep 18
FreeStuffsNG:
Gold Apollo’s chair, Hsu Ching-Kuang, told journalists Wednesday that his firm inked the licensing agreement with BAC three years ago.
“According to the cooperation agreement, we authorize BAC to use our brand trademark for product sales in designated regions, but the design and manufacturing of the products are solely the responsibility of BAC,” the statement read.
“The product was not ours. It was only that it had our brand on it,” the Taiwanese businessman told reporters. “We are a responsible company. This is very embarrassing.”
The devices were reportedly laced with explosive material before their delivery to Lebanon

This is very bad for international businesses and I hope the US will condemn this terrorist attack. Is it that the bomb laden pagers were not checked at the export point in Hungary too ni? Hungary has a case to answer too, not just only Taiwan. And the shipping company and Lebanon imports control agency should all be investigated for crimes against humanity/war crimes.


This terrorist attack on Lebanon by Israel with use of bomb-laden pagers may likely influence the votes for Palestine self determination and endorsement of the ICJ ruling against Isreal that the 1967 occupation of West bank militarily is illegal taking place at UNGA today. The Taiwanese police has already raided the small Taiwanese company to establish its suspected link to the terrorist attack on Lebanon by Isreal.

All the sides in this war should please stop the killing of innocent people. They should all find a middle ground for peace and reconciliation for the sake of humanity.
Adieu to all those killed on all the warring sides. May God console their families and associates.

The government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria should please ban the importation of all pagers from Hungary abeg.
May God bless Nigeria for ever!

There is also diplomacy in wailing . So please deploy one. Israel cannot fold Its arms while some nuisance keeps nuking them with barrages of rockets and small bombs.

Politics / Re: We Never Boycotted Dangote’s Petrol, But… — Marketers by lagosrd: 12:33pm On Sep 17
asala1:


The premise of your argument is flawed. Dangote is a private business, not a charity, and Nigeria is not a communist country where prices are fixed for private enterprises. While it’s beneficial that raw materials are located near the refinery, this doesn’t automatically translate to below-market pricing. For instance, over 60% of the iron ore used in China is imported from Australia, yet steel prices are lower in China than in Australia. The situation is more complex than it appears.

NNPC still subsidizes PMS, which is why they are currently the sole off-taker. Dangote, on the other hand, will sell their PMS at a higher price outside Nigeria.

Your grammatical conjunction is not sufficient to defend bad and flawed government policies as you call it. Any government that cannot provide for its citizen is a failed one using any indices, or parameters you won't to use. Looking at it from any dimensions or angle. You can jack up an economy you haven't invested in from the back it only creates an avalanche or sesspool of low class citizens.

I don’t even understand how what you typed above is relevant to my comment.

The fact is that FGN still provides subsidy on PMS that is why fuel in Nigeria today is till cheaper than of all the countries around us.

Read it again if you don't understand, or ask someone to interpret it to you in any language that suits you. Subsidy on petrol is a fraud anyway the raw material (crude oil) is located in the same place as refining
Politics / Re: We Never Boycotted Dangote’s Petrol, But… — Marketers by lagosrd: 10:58am On Sep 15
asala1:


Dangote is a private company, they refine petroleum products and sell at market prices. It doesn’t matter where the product is refined, the real cost of PMS is not N980, it’s more than N1200. If you want know how much PMS cost, check the prices from the countries around us. They don’t have subsidy, so they sell at an average price equivalent to N2000.

Countries around you don't determine the cost of production. Itaa local thing. NNPC is just been selfish and following IMF blindly. We just want to be politically correct and able to continue our usual beggally lifestyle.

Those countries that can afford PMS at #1200 , ask yourself what is their GDP and economic standard. You can't say because it's sold for this price in Saudi it has to be uniform throughout the world. Hell no

NNPC still pays subsidy on PMS. Only a cra.zy person will buy directly from Dangote when you can buy it at a subsidized rate from NNPC.

Why pay the subsidy. Subsidy for what is been refined here locally , that is not possible

The petroleum sector doesn't need a middle man or middle system to regulate the industry. Let everyone buy from dangote directly and determine what price he or she will sell.

That tradition, trash it the moment you leave Nigeria for any foreign land. It is recognized in many climes for what it is and that is mental manipulation. grin

We have seen how it has been used to manipulate Nigerians into condoning some of the worst atrocities. So, don't blame westerners for frowning at that jargon abeg. grin

So how come there keep their but we copy others tradition and cultures and still make mess of ourselves even more than their inherited cultures. Preserving our culture is still the best . Submissiveness, love and respect in a family that will grieve is inevitable

The audience he was with are they in Nigeria?
The audience he was with was he there as himself or as a representative of the met police?


Let me put this is terms you will understand

In Nigeria it is against the law to be gay.

An NGO was shut down for promoting lgbtq. It does not matter if gays have rights in the west. It does not matter if the NGO was promoting human rights.

Can a un French national come to a in convention in Nigeria and start advising gays in French in how to bypass Nigerian laws on gays?

This should be simple for you to understand. You cannot promote attitudes that are against the a country's law and against accepted cultural norms, especially hard issues like dv.

All perfectly understood however, what . Saying is that he was only giving his own advices based on moral grounds and I don't think he should be crucified for that.

Help out on marital issues?

In the west, your neighbours will call the police if they suspect dv. Schools will call child protection if they suspect child abuse.

THIS IS THE LAW.

It is not the place of a police officer to advise people to subvert the law. That is what the man was doing.

It is like a police officer saying yahoo is actually not that bad. If you want to maintain a Nigerian attitude then stay in Nigeria. Do not think you can transplant a Nigerian attitude outside Nigeria.

Stop thinking your hosts are fools who will stand by and let you being in Nigerian culture.

It is Nigerians too who go abroad and start trying to date small girls because they can get away with it in Nigeria.

You cannot eat your cake and have it

Watch the audience he was talking to and watch the settings. This was I mean people from his country , Africans , say blacks with certain shared cultural beliefs and way of life. He wouldn't have said that in the public domain and I honestly don't think the man overstepped his boundaries except for the fact that he is one foreign soil where those kind of advice may land you I to trouble. Cos government is Interested in everything you do including your private life.

It would have been better if it was a new video. Because it is an old video there will be a much deeper investigation and a review of multiple DV cases/calls that were handled by Nigerian police officers.

This is not naija police where there are no records. Police work is about records and paperwork.

God help any Nigerian policeman who was dieing dv cases on his watch. It will all come out now. If that video 2as recent they would assume it was a one off. But an old video indicates it may be an endemic issue

But I think the man was just trying to help out on marital issues unfortunately, it may affect him and others who fish out such advice to fellow country men. I think one just have to mind our business and behave well abroad ,Otherwise there will be a big challenges dealing with such issues when both parties return home.
