Brendaniel: True, people who should have no business with leadership are currently the people handling Nigeria, think about this:
If Tinubu or Wike were in UK today with all their profile and history, do you think they will win even a councillorship position in any election there?
Yes they will, because apparently this are the type of people who generally make up the political and ruling class all over the world.
opicgif: okay thanks. i see its a christian school. as i said earlier, i hope its a place i can go to school while living off campus? i am also browsing about them now
Selfless1: I got two jobs, and I don't know which to go for.
Job 1 is a Porter position in a hotel. Salary - 40k
Job 2 is a Customer Service position in MTN. Although, the employment is not from MTN directly. It's from a company MTN outsource the job to. Salary is 35k, with a 5k increment every 3months.
Which should I choose, and please give reason. Thanks
CalmluxPaint: I'll give it to Vincent Enyeama. He's one of the (top three) greatest shot-stoppers in contemporary football history, and very good with the ball at his feet.
Though terrible at handling ariel ball due to his height, he overcompensated with many other amazing qualities. If Enyeama were to be European, he'd have been ranked one of the all time GREATESTS. Though he was not-long-ago voted the Greatest African Goal Keeper (within decades in review).
His exploits in the Nigerian, Israeli and French leagues are under-amplified. He's not just a UCL goal scorer, he also won the player of the season award in the Israeli league at some point.
He's exactly what Manchester United fans expect André Onana to be; he beats Onana hands down in every index, save for Onana being fantastic with ariel ball due to his height.
Enyeama is an enigma we didn't know we'll miss. Watching Uzoho between the sticks makes me want to weep for how low Nigeria football has dived. Let me not even talk about that oyinbo who did rubbish in the last AFCON.
Ike Shorunmu was even better than most of the guys the OP listed up there. I'll rank Ike Shorunmu after Enyeama in Nigerian greats between the sticks.
I was just about asking where una put ike shorunmou
This is a video story shared by Brekete Family. It is about the ordeal of a Nigerian citizen in the hands of the Nigerian Police Force.
Solomon Bawa hails from Ajaga Family in Karo LGA of Nasarawa State.
In 2019, he was on his way to repair the tyre of his pickup when he was accosted by the Police who asked him if he knew any Bawa Gambo. He replied in the negative but they asked him to enter their vehicle to follow them to the station at Masaka.
On reaching there, they asked about his identity again and he told them his name, Solomon Bawa. After pressuring him to identify as Bawa Gambo and not getting a result, they took away his belt and shoes, then locked him up in a cell until daybreak.
He kept asking why he was locked up and got no response. Instead he got beaten and later transferred to State CID, Lafia. Here, he was beaten repeatedly and forced to identify as Bawa Gambo or tell them the whereabouts.
An Igbo trader who saw him, travelled to Solomon's home on his behalf, to inform his family of what is going on. His mother came to attest that his name is Solomon but was given no attention. Instead, he got beaten by one Inspector Usman Amgbashi to the extent that he got his forehead injured and lost his entire right arm to shrinking and paralysis.
Another Policeman, Inspector Ado Bature, advised him to accept the identity of Bawa Gambo or face more beating, especially as it was getting too much and may lead to his death and nothing will happen. Solomon had to accept, in the hopes that when he gets to court, he can explain himself. But this was not to be as he spent some months there. The only visitor he frequently had, his mother, died about 2 months after he had been held at the State CID.
After then, no one visited anymore and Solomon could not help crying everyday, at his loss. He was then transferred to Lafia Prison without being charged to court. He spent about 3 years in prison until he met with the Comptroller and explained his situation and ill-health. He was then transferred to Keffi Prison, where he spent another year but was getting some form of treatment on the now deformed hand.
Respite came in the form of a human rights lawyer, Barrister C.Y. Masha, who listened to his story when she came to the Prison. She took it upon herself to verify his identity by going to his hometown and retrieving his certificates, then pursued the matter until he was due to appear in court. It turns out that the said 'Bawa Gambo' had already appeared and bailed himself at the State CID while Solomon remained imprisoned.
After the first court session, the police never showed up again, despite Musa making multiple appearance with his lawyer, Barrister C.Y. Masha. He was then asked to provide two surety so he can be bailed, which he did. He went to retrieve his phone from State CID. He saw Inspector Usman Amgbashi, approached him and greeted him. He proceeded to tell him that he came for his phone but was warned never to step his foot there again or get beaten.
On October 4, after another no-show at the courts by the Police, he was advised by the same Igbo trader to go to Brekete Family to tell his story and possibly, get justice.
Today, the matter is being handled by the IGP himself, who called for a thorough investigation.
It's a bag of mixed fortunes ahead for Solomon, who now has to get justice with a deformed right hand, a permanent scar on his head, a late mother and four years of his life gone 'for nothing'
yarimo: Shutting down power, because NLC president candidate was defeated in imo state governorship election.
I don't understand it as well. Because of one man. What is now the difference between him and our politicians? Why should the NLC president involve himself in partisan politics? Abeg they should kuku scarp the nonsense Congress. I don't see how they have ever benefited the ordinary man.
[quote author=Vixlot post=126935707][/quote]Well, again it's actually time to end the monopoly of the Igalas in Kogi affairs. However I only wish Yahaya Bello had chosen a less controversial person. 2. The thinking of kogites is that ododo will just be the governor in name, while Yahaya keeps ruling in proxy.
sagitariusbaby: I have never supported APC in any election but I am happy with this outcome. I'm from the South South but I have a big issue with some states like Kogi and Benue where a particular tribe thinks the seat of the first man of the state is their exclusive right.
Ebira is doing to the Igalas what the Igala did to them back to back since 1999 return to democracy until the Ebira got it by divine intervention. Playing ethnic politics in a state like Kogi comes with great consequences and regrets like this. The Benue Tiv people should get ready for a day and time like this when the Idoma by divine mercy will take over the leadership of that state to the glory of God. This election is a clear example. Congratulations to ODODO.
This is not the kind of the thing we expect and in truth, will only result in violence, because there is no way in hell that ododo could have won the election in Kogi state
chisomkachy: Many stranded as NLC locks down Abuja airport
Please is this not stupidity? Strikes that further stress the ordinary man. Tinubu, frank MBA, etc still left Abuja. Who is the strike targeted at? Abeg they should despatch soldiers to shoot them all. Idiots.
atiku4President: Good move. Product of visionary leadership at the TETFUND. This open opportunity cross fertilisation of intellectual ideas and up skilling of beneficiaries.
This one no make sense oga. It's not about appointment youths. He just finished NYSC in 2022, what experience does he have?
garfield1: Must you always complain? Besides,he's just the ceremonial head.the real authority is the md from your south east.give him kudos for appointing youths
GeneralPula: He remarked, “If Akpabio and his camp wanted a united Senate, much like Ahmed Lawan, they would have known exactly what to do during Senate Standing Committees allocation and supplementary budget resources allocation. But the camp of the SP continued to treat the senate as a conquered territory where the winner walks away with the spoils of war. A classic case of the winner takes all.” He used it to buy intimacy gadgets..stupid thing
What did Ahmed Lawan do during Senate Standing Committees allocation and supplementary budget resources allocation?
Nbote: Oh cult killings have been normal for 20years and people are still there
In sagamu, yes. Schooled in ilishan remo and there was no year those rival cults don't clash and nothing is done about it. Virtually every young person there, both male and female in the whole sagamu, iperu, ilishan were cult members.
