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

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.

The UK Metropolitan Police have made it clear that they had no part in telling Nigerian women not to call the police on their husbands. The police officer speaking in Yoruba in this video is being investigated—I’m sure he’ll lose his job and possibly receive criminal charges which is good!

Here’s the story:

Did he just realized he is been paid for doing nothing.
1. You can't give what you don't have. What knowledge does he possess to run or manage that office.
3. What exposure, education and experience has he gathered for himself.
4. Kindly refund the salaries you've collected abi initio so that the principles you stand for will not collide with your conscience.
5. Don't mind the guy, he is only following the trend in ilorin to be precise. The moment they want someone out, they will all use all manners of strategies including trying to look like a saint .

Finally, what principle does he stand for. If he is still in APC but only resigned an appointment under the same party. It means if he is offered the role of a commissioner for finance even if he has OND accountancy, so far something is happening there , he wont have to resign but adjust ......

When will you grow up to learn how to seek justice . You need to visit justice funmi court. No matter how rich it wealthy the woman is , she will first appear at the court except she want to go to jail. It's called direct court complaint. Let her go there to explain her negligence that could cause this type of grievous damage to the poor baby

On the other hand , both of you are not serious, I mean the husband and the wife. So one of you cannot wait behind to cater for his innocent kid. What kind of money are you looking for , especially the wife. When your wife puts to bed that is the time and period you double your hustle as a man and care more for you family.

May God help you sha to get justice

Poor soul. Thean should have made research and an indepth analysis of how many kilowatts Edo state is currently consuming and how much are the industrial
Government facilities
And private homes are consuming.

This will give him a pointer to have said he will add more to the supply from the Gencosbto the discos. He should have a mindset of setting up an independent power station that at least can supply house holds and leave the others to the Gencos to supply. This will only compliment the supply from the Gencos and increase productivity. Create jobs , improve standard of living.

He could have mentioned wind energy, solar and water . Mini grida and micro grids. That can service places that suits a particular source of energy generations.

What would one be doing with a million dollars especially the one you never worked for. That's why they live flamboyantly like the head gang of armed robbers. Kudos once again to the US border patrol for their dutiful job if separating them good from the bad. Meanwhile they also go to Dubai and all these African countries for holidays . Abeg find them for there and collect una money from them before they finish it.
