D igbo nation hv spoken. Bt it is beyond d removal of 13%.

First lets start with a unicameral legislature at d centre whose job will be on part time basis. Reduce dere pay too.

We need to fashion out a new system of governance. Wot works in d sw or north might nt work in d se or ss cos we ar nt d same. Reduce d nos of states n merge ppl with similar affinities into regions. Then create more communes which s more like local governmt to bring governance to d ppl. More powers will b vested in those regional leaders, n each region shd develop at dere own pace. The revenue allocatn shd b by derivatn what u produce u will get. Scrap federal xter commisn. Only den will we move, otherwise d thieves will continue to feed fat on d common wealth.

Why don't they beat up politicians ? Foolish set soldiers.

Think well before u call soldiers foolish. Maybe u dont know dey feel d brunt harder dan any of. Utility bills ie power, accomodatn, water supply, waste disposal are being deducted direct from dere salaries before dey got dem. For a private soldier its abt #16,000, n d higher ur rank d higher d cut cos its a fixed percentage of ur take home pay.

Dat private is supposed to live in a room n parlor self-contained bt u see dem bn choked in lesser apartmt. He will nt get d light, he has to buy a none existent fuel from his meager pay, dispose his sewage n refuse himself n he cant complain?

He leaves his family to be chasing terrorist in dangerous n mosquitoe-invested terrain n d useless power ppl cannot giv dem light. Security wise is barrack supposed to be without power?

In my area its bn a weeklong blackout without explanation. Bt d stupid power worker said dey petitioned d high command of d military. What abt d foodstuffs in d soldiers freezers, dey could get rotten without dem petitioning d power ppl cos dey are nt human?
What abt d light dey need to iron dere uniforms so dey could turn out smart? They cant complain? When civilians misbehaved to soldiers n d soldier retaliated in a case of two fighting dey run down crying foul.

The soldiers are d endangered specie here. Until wen Nigerian can start suing d arse of power bastards for non performance dat sector will never improve.

Abegi, dey deserve wot dey got joor!

Nice try

You evaded one key element

Do you pay taxes?
Besides your family land that you hold on to do dearly have you worked, gathered money, paid for a piece of one sq.m in the Lagos you're claiming or its just another one who mutters with only a sense of entitlement that I'm arguing with?

Omo onile type of thing?

Keep dreaming about what will make people leave the state you hear? Don't go and look for work. Be waiting so that when they chase them away you will go and claim one of the properties they leave behind. You know the people that built those things they have two heads, if this was how they sat playing baba ijebu & waiting for a war that would not happen they would have achieved that much.

Kai...and this is someone's child?

God forbid!

The family land? U made me laugh! Maybe u dont know Lagosians, esp Islanders are very competitive in many spheres of life. We have produced n continue to produce high ranking intelectuals. And Im talking abt professor of history, agric, yoruba here. Go to d UK n see d demographic of d yoruba-speaking ppl dere.

And may be u dont know d Okoya-Thomas, his cousin Rasaq Okoya(Eleganza), Otunba Adekunle Ojora, Wale Tinubu, Femi Otedola, d Alakija u v bn hearing, Funke Akindele, Nike Oshinowo, Banky W, Tiwa Savage, Teslim Elias, Rotimi Williams, Bode Thomas, Da Rochas, Fernandez, General Mobolaji Johnson, Admiral Akinwale Wey, Herbert Macaulay, Dr TOS Benson, Oprah Benson, Lola Alakija, the Vaughans, Vera-Cruz are all illustrious sons and daughters of Lagos to mention bt a few, and majority of which are even from Lagos Island, just a town in d heart of lagos. Tell me which other Nigerians are more industrious than dey are.

As for d omo onile syndrome, those are d miscreants of d family most families have dem, but u come to nairaland n pretend. Really they are pain in d arse. Go to onitsha, aba, asaba, warri, ph they have a good fair share of dem. Bt dey are as popular as ones down here because ur erosion-ridden red land is nt as attractive as d white-sand alluring lagos land.

Talking abt payment of taxes, d population of ur ppl cannot be more d lagosians, forget d noise u make online, d demographic of d registered voters is dere. Bt d lagosians are nt too interested in d election cos we know u will end voting one of us at last. Observe dat mostly it ws d snr citizens dat voted most among us. Lagosians make up a big chunk of d workforce in d state n local govt depts, dere taxes ar deducted from source. They engaged in genuine businesses n pay taxes on dere holdings.

So be better educated. The achievemt of my ppl will always dwarf urs anyday.

What does the MUSLIMS really want?

You see the xtian world have always been so cunny n crafty in dere extremist ideals to convert anything muslim to christianity. Some of created d irrational violent responses from northern muslims who doesnt understand u need to fight such with cunning manoeuvers. Esp d ibo religious peddlers, u hear dem coming into a public bus, place or institution n preaching Mohammed cannot save, come to Jesus. Such is an insult to d ppl of dat religion n we know definitely an hausa person will react.

Even long ago in d southwest, dat was dere way some of our earlier elites were muslims forcefully converted to christianity if they want western education, eg Richard Akinjidi was born Rashidi Akinjide.

Coming to my Lagos Island. Most of d indigenous population were muslims or pagans n lived in isale-eko area while u can find xtians among d creole n brazillian settlemts, even some of d brazillians are muslims. The tactics of forcing muslims to xtianity if u must get access to western education was firmly in force. Maybe dat was even why d group of misguided youth upnorth introduced boko haram?

This system was in practice for long dat d indegenous population were losing white collar jobs to d creoles mostly cos d brazillians are artisans n masons. Thats why when dey mentioned an island u read abt such names as Berkeley, Macaulay, Claxton against d real landowners who were deprived of education cos of dere faith. Seeing dere disadvantaged position some family took d bait and dere children were stolen from dem, though some returned to islam bt some didnt. And dats why you find xtians in d midst of well known muslim families like d Oshodis, Abina, Kekere-ekun, Aromires, Animasaun(the Fasholas are extension of this), Alli-Balogun, Kadiku, Abari, Bawalla etc. We welcome our converted brothers n pretended nothing has changed cos dey sacrificed themselves so we can have western education. It was these educated ones that brought Ahmadiya Islam, Ansar-ud Deen, Deen Islam, Jibril Martins, etc, that stopped d incursion of ds xtians into our homes. Alhaji Lateef Jakande put a permanent end to d menace by setting up public schools evrywhere where no xtian cld force dere faith thru cunning ways on our children.

So, it isnt something dat started today. Ask d real lagosians dey will confirm my story or u can google islam in lagos.

A muslim has always been target bt dey resent it wen muslim make a move. Secularism must b freedom to practise ur religion without intimidation or harrassmt. All public places shd be free of religious proseltising materials. So we can see ourselves as who we are n nt d names we call God.

I am a muslim with xtian relations n siblings n like other islander we dont try to force our faiths on each other. It is mutual respect for each others. It has always been so with us n dats why we live in harmony.

Not only has Adegboruwa succeeded in exposing himself as a noisemaker but also as an hypocrite. Which judiciary is he talking abt? The same set of goons who SAN to frustrate trials with dere crooked means?

Must he work for d efcc to make an impact on d anti corruption crusade? No! As a human right activist, he claimed to be he could mobilized d masses to see to real reform in d judiciary so as ppl like saraki, metuh, dasuki, badeh, dokpesi etc will nt be frustrating trial running from pillar to post challenging court's jurisdiction or competence.

He is just seeking relevance n Buhari has nt done anything to them. I will be d happiest if d SAN thing cld be expunged from our system like d US who valued no such appellatn. This group of men have contributed no positive thing to d country than d fattening of dere pockets.

A thief is a thief wether big or small.

Magician1503:
Beautiful land developed by the lost tribe of Israel

Which land? Dey are nt talking abt ajegunle or amuwo odofin where ur ppl settled in droves. There is no igbo settlemt as u can see in oke-odo in lagos island. Before ur forefathers started coming to lagos d islands ws a very developed place.

This is eko akete, eko Adeniji-Adele, eko Aromire. U cant find ibo quarters on d island stop deceiving urself.

And d land u claimed u bought in our farmlands from ajegunle to iganmu n beyong will revert back to our grandchildren n great-grandchildren in tym ask Nigerian brewries. Owo eko, eko lo ngbe!

Continue to develop it n let me see if u will take it to ur biafra republic. Wether u vote apc or pdp in lagos ur fate remains d same cos u will always produce an ibile child who is deeply rooted in Island Club as ur governor. Ur nightmare can never end.

Some day wen d carpet hv bn swept under ur feet, u will understand lagos is somebody's village.

zombie, have u taken your medications?
this ks my region and that is the time they scoop sand because the sea will be so calm by that time. ****

My guy d sea does nt calm at night. If actually u are a riverine man you should the tide floods for roughly 5 or 6 hours and ebb for the same period of tym. It only slack for abt 45 min to 1 hour which u may refer as calm, before it changes to ebbing or flooding again. The relative pacifity is a seasonal thing. And talking abt d jetty d level of waves of water hitting d shore depends on its distance from d breakwater, eg d ibeno jetty in akwa is direct to breakwater just like d freetown harbor in sierra leone.

And which jetty are we talking abt? Is it private or public? And how close is it to nearest oil installations or manifolds? In atlas cove takwa bay of lagos ppl hv vandalised enough pipes dat sometimes fuel gushes out of d ground n u see ppl scooping petroleum products from d ground. D same is applicable in d niger delta where pipeline vandal is of d highest. It is d constitutional duty of d nigerian navy to prevent illegal bunkering, fishery, piracy n smuggling.

Even Tompolo made hs early money from bunkering. Besides, d navy man is ijaw he wont have shot at his kinsman without reason.

But lets wait for d official statement from d navy. D navy chief is a no nonsense he wont cover up a trigger-happy wench be sure of dat. But ppl shd stay clear of criminality. It is very common in d niger delta to victimise d military to cover up criminalities at times.

This is a different era for tompolo. If he flexes his muscles with d military ds tym, niger delta will burn n lots of innocent souls esp civilians will die n become homeless n he will b d loser at d end of d dy. An average niger deltan or militant is nt like d boko boys cos he wants to enjoy hs loot bt d latter s interested in an unseen seven virgins.

Lets tread softly.

Though the relationshp btw d judge n d woman cld be described as mutual bt it's purely an abuse of office. Some courts do give an option or suggest alternative dispute resolutn to cases both domestic n civil. It means he became interested in d woman immediately he set his eyes on her. At best he cld hv stepped down from d case as judicial ethics demand. If he had done that without influencing the outcome of the case it would have been morally upright. But dat is nt good in d sight of God cos he occupies a positn which he ought to use with fairness. D story of king David comes to mind on ds one wen he desired Uriah's wife.

The lagos judicial commission dd just fine. All d bad eggs shd be weeded out of our judicial system. He is an example of those bribe-taking judges frustrating the development of the country.

Eko oni baje o!

It is funny though that when dey talk abt saraki n d stolen wealth of kwara state some ppl are quick to come to his defence. They even liken him to Tinubu.

Its pure madness n irrationality. What is d business of d kwara man with goes on in Lagos? Kwara is a civil service state will no income-generating source apart from federal allocation. The ppl of kwara are considered d backwater of d yoruba race. They are d only yoruba speaking state among d educationally less developed state. Very poor infrastures. Some towns generated dere own power thru community efforts. D kwaran are scattered like gypsies all over yorubaland n hausaland. They live in shanties n slums like pelewura, ijora badia, amukoko, ajegunle, okokomaiko, ajangbadi, orile-iganmu etc.

Kwarans are known to be very industrious n hardworking. A great number of dem engaged in menial jobs in d city of lagos. They have been driven out of dere homeland by years of misrule of d Sarakis. Unlike lagosians wen dey live dere communities dey to go london, d US n others. I am a Lagosian from d Island n our people are very competitive in our own ways.

Yeah Tinubu may have stolen bt he invested here in lagos, i heard he owns TVC tv n radio stations, shoprite n many others. They employ residents here. The megacity project is dere to mention but a few. We have a saying among indigenous lagosians 'owo eko, eko lo ngbe'. Whatever u see in lagos remains in lagos. For instance, the land u purchased n developed cant be taken to ur village afteral. My lagos brothers understand what i mean. Jagaban is d lion of bourdillon cos omo ibile still want him to roar n enjoy hs patronage. D Eleko(omo erin jogun ola), idejos, abagbon, akarigberes, eletu edibo n other meaningful classes of rulers are contented.

But the man saraki stole from kwara n stashed d money in foreign accounts, also purchased buildings in lagos n abuja. What happened to ilorin his hometown? Even learnt shoprite is nw in ilorin. He destroyed d state-owned bank trade bank. Workers are not paid salaries cos he is still d chief accountant. Lagosians get dere salaries as at wen due.

Fellow nairalanders kwarans need dere stolen loot to build dere state. Maybe some of dem will return if d condition improves. Saraki should go n answer abt d stolen money since d questions have come up.

That he helped won d election is immaterial. If he could betray his pdp and den betrayed his new found apc again shows him to be a dishonourable man nt to be trusted. Ilorin me-sujamba dey say, an ilorin person could be very treacherous. Saraki had demonstrated dat in full course. But that is one thing, hs trial is another. He shouldnt be running from pillar to post to avoid trial if he is not guilty. Before u defend d man go to d land kwara n see for yourself.

I rest my case.

It would have been honourable if he had done this earlier instead of trying to stop the trial.

He is just nt wise enough.

#Pathetic and only a fool will say that all muslim are extremists

My dear extremism is a coinage of d west to smear d hard-core antagonists of western imperialism in arabia n dere unholy quest for oil.

D uncooperative elements were labelled fundamentalists, extremists etc. It worked cus dey controlled d world media. When d arabs fights back by blowing up things n demselves cos they had nothing to fight d superior firepower of d western monsters who had turned dere countries to police states under dere stooges. The west cries muslim extremists. What do u expect an average arab man to be? -muslim! An average italian, frenchman or englishman? Xtian!

When dey commit serial murders, robbery, arson, what report do u read? English male serial murder suspect arrested. But in muslim countries d headline is muslim terrorist blah blah.

So d west defines who is a terrorist.

vroom:
that's why they are combatants soldiers, there are places to shoot a terrorist,forehead n neck.

Thank you vroom. This slap1 person just exposed his ignorance of d workings of explosive devices. Since all u are u gd at doing is to vomit nonsense abt d gallant men n women who risk dere lives to keep u safe. Hv u ever headed to a troubled spot in ur life?

And for ur information, it was a brilliant operation. A marksman or a sniper will go for a clean headshot to take out d girl. The explosives hv triggers or it cld b timed, most dont detonate on shock or impact.

That was why dey quickly detonated immediately d hostile has bn taken out.

Ask question to clear ur ignorance instead of casting aspersion in d ways of ppl who are doing a very difficult job. I know ppl like u will run away wen u hear an aboki charging with a knife but soldiers are sent to confront tougher situation yet u sit down typing nonsense on a very cheap chinko fon.

Abbeyunique2:
Female again! How do they Convince these girls to kill themselves along with other people

They dont tell dem anything. They coerced dem. Even some of us may be forced in doing so. Many muslims are nt willing to die so dey can re-unite with 7 virgins bt we do care abt our loved ones n we will do anything sometimes to save dem even if it means losing ours for their sake.

That's wot we see on display in every attack. Some of ds girls were kidnapped by ppl who still hv info abt dere roots, d bastards still dangle d threat of killing dere loved ones in dere faces if dey dont do as were told.

They always believed ds evil will kill dem n dere family or clan if dey dont obey, why nt jst die so dere ppl wld live. Those poor girls in dere minds are sacrificing demselves for dere ppl to live. Though d assumption is erroneous bt it s a mind game. Afteral ds men appear invincible to poor girls.

Observe they are always sent to a clan different from theirs. It is a tactic d western n eastern bloc employed in d past.

Nt evry muslim is eager to die!

It is only in Nigeria you see this kind of madness. A thief claiming he should be free cos another escaped couple of years back.

Saraki should vacate that seat and all those irresponsible senators who ought to have advised him to put the matter to rest by giving his side of d coin and were junketing with him to d courts shd be recalled by dere constituencies. We need sanity for goodness sake.

Lets start from somewhere!

IsraeliAIRFORCE:
CCB should then appeal.

Nigerians should force Code of Conduct Bureau to appeal the judgment to a higher court that will inturn order for a retrial.

This is just as simple as ABC. Every Nigerian must be judged by the same rule of law

It is simple indeed but u dont seem to understand d simplicity of 'double jeopardy'. The case cant be revisited.

But talking about Saraki, I'm appalled at the way d youth are sympathising with him. Ignorance is only responsible for d unnecessary hoopla abt Tinubu cos in my own opinion d apc-led govt is setting an antecedent which in d long run will catch up with d thieves in dere clan. Let Buhari clears all the thieves in pdp and elsewhere, wen dere is no more and sanity has been restored to the country where merit is d other of d day, even the rats in d apc will have no hiding place. It worked in chile, remember what happened to Augusto Pinochet in his old age.

Lets loose no sleep off Saraki at all. By now he should have resigned from his seat. Come and explain irregularity in ur statement and he is busy running from pillar to post. Then he is guilty! I thought he was a fine man whom we can model our new Nigeria upon.

Let Saraki be brought to justice. The days of d other dogs will come too. We need sth to deter ds thieves.

Old horse like Agabi are no good for ds nation. So he knew all ds while Tinubu benefited from an inconsistency in d legal framework and he had been parleying with d same ppl?

We need to free ourselves from d clutches of ds madmen.

Why run away instead of settling things out with the other party. Abegi, these women these days sef! They think its d military men who they can always chastitize easily because evryone dislikes the men in uniform.

This is woman like you. Go and cry ur woman rights cry or is married woman cry to the gods.

Mtcheeeew!

Definitely, Ogechi from the story no doubt is a rude girl and she must have irked the irrational response she got from the school authorities. But the school authority could have simply suspended from the school which to me is more heavier than the flogging.

What is more worrisome is the dramatis personae of those trying to enforce her rights-they are Ibos and she is Ibo too. This should not be made an igbo affair as it will be counter-productive. Objectivity should be maintained so it wont turn around.

It is disheartening as a muslim to read about the madness in the north in d name of boko haram. The truth of d matter is not Islam n its teachings that is d problem up north. It ws just a ready tool in the hand of d northern leaders for mobilising dere gullible followers.

The have been held in captivity and cowed to submission through deprivation and ignorance(absence of western education). An average norther muslim got his religious education thru his ustaz, sheik or mallam as d case may be based on d perception of teacher's. Unlike in d southwest where you have all the islamic texts such as the Quran, Hadith, Fiqh and others in English and Yoruba. The bh war in Nigeria is simply an extension of the west-arab conflict which initiated the arab spring and had also produced a monster like Islamic State. They have only chosen Nigerian in d sub sahara African subcontinent because of d ready tool in persons of the northern youth who they know is easier to deceive with religion and racial superiority.

Hitler, the christian crusades, winston churchil, Napoleon were example of cases in which young men had been led to slaughter in d name of one ideology or another. Wether those deaths were justified depends on which side of d divide you belong.

The average core-northerner believes more in violence than anything in resolving of issues. Thats why he goes about with dagger in a cosmopolitan city like Lagos, Abuja and PH. He respects you if he knows you can equally reciprocate violence with absolute irrationality. He definitely will be friend to an blood-thirsty opc man but will be quick to draw his dagger to Akin who like to sue for peaceful co-existence. That is their nature and got nothing with Islam.

May God save the country.

Ayt27:
Why will a military officer beat a civilian? Can that happen in the U.S.A or UK? We need to get rid of "Who is your Father in this Land" mentality.

A zoo's starting to look vaguely familiar now.

Could she also behaved like she did in d UK or US without she being put behind bars. u c a stupid woman who showed to the public she has no respect for simple rules. Afterall someone was controlling the traffic before she turned herself into a nuisance. What right have she to damage the officer's vehicle in the first place. It's only in Nigeria military men are not respected. Some irresponsible women always take advantage of this gender thing to slap a man first time in d public and then start hiding under she is a woman or she is married. Do they slap their husbands at home?

Let's be fair in judgment.

From my own angle I think both party should be given fair hearing before jumping to conclusions based on assumptions.

It is possible for young girls to have a dangerous crush on men out of their league. I once had an experience as ss3 student staying with a cousin. There was this pretty girl barely a teenager but with rapid growth, who also happened to be my cousin's landlord granddaughter. She had serious crush on me. Sometimes she would barge into my apartment indecently dressed. When i had rebuffed all her moves the whole thing turned to hatred. She would always hissed whenever I passed and she didnt hide her burning hatred for me. I quickly went into a relationship with an older cousin of hers who was also an ss3 student from another school in festac. Had she been bold enough to frame me even in one of those her attempts at catching my attentions only God could have known my innocence.

There had been cases of girls raising false allegation against innocent guys in the past. Dont let us be so quick to forget the girl whose picture was syndicate on whatsapp by a guy and she claimed she was raped before investigations proved otherwise.

Girls know if they lay allegation the world always believe their words against the man's, and thats why many of them exploit this. Let us be careful the way we go about this. If the school had actually arranged a cover up it will not take long before the truth will come to limelight.

And regarding the handwriting, in most demonstrations and protests the guy or girl with the good handwriting or better ideas on what to express does most of the write-up and I dont think that is criminal. If any of u guys was a student and partook in aluta u wil understand what i'm talking about. Look back at those days.

Another mishap from the pissful religion averted

what is the difference btw u and the people u tried to ridicule. Do u know the number of muslims in the military campaign to route out those misguided idiots,?

Does the corrupt activities of some christian leaders, CAN president, pastors under GEJ make christianity bad, or the nigerdelta militancy bloodbath considered xtian extremism? Nor will you label the recent ipob agitation which turned bloody at a stage a xtian thing.

These are just ethnocentric issues and people have easily mobilized under shared affinities.

Its just unfortunate the hausa-fulani may have their crude ways of doing things but you should understand that Quran emphasized let dere be no compulsion in religion.

The blame will always go to the youth of this country for our conspiratorial silence. These thieves believed the youth are spineless and only need to dangle a little carrot to lure them to their death in droves or in submission to their peddled falsehood.

If a man who stole #500 at jankara market could be lynched immediately without anyone looking at where he came from or the name he called God, why cant we force the govt to punish a polithievecian who stole #500 million?

Then they became heroes, brothers, messiahs etc.

What with the senators who have shown solidarity for politicians facing corruption charges? They represent constituencies dont they? If a man considered honorable will file behind a corrupt man in staunch defence means he is also corrupt. He isnt doing for anything other than to frustrate the anti-graft agency so they wont look his way in the future.

What happened to the youth of the constituencies they represent? They ought to have call for a recall of such senators.

Saraki, Metuh, Dokpesi, Dasuki and others are not trying to explain the charges against them but rather seeking for avenues and loopholes to staunch their trials. To me such men are guilty. And funny enough some youth will applaud them.

Anyone who has visited kwara state will appreciate the damage the Saraki did to that state.

PMB has done his part, youth lets do ours!

Enough of the conspiracy of silence!

I sincerely believed we wont get any meaningful results if the great youth of this country dont forcefully collect our joy, pride and birth-rights from these callous leaders.

They continue to steal the economy blind and lavish it on their families and girlfriends cum concubines who then walk the streets like the gods cos no hostility is visited on them by the angry hungry masses.

People let the pressure begins. Some people and organization have initiated actions. CBN governor and those concern must go.

We need not be afraid. When people speak out and match it up with action the mighty trembles. Isnt it surprising that all recruitment into the armed forces and the police advertised lately are free?

It is because the people spoke out against the sham that was called immigration recruitment where many lost their lives and yet the same available slots were given to the usual 'privilege individuals'.

Lets not allow this one to die until all the perpetrators and the beneficiary loses their slots and future exercise should be open for all to see.

#commonsense

The truth of the matter remains that all agencies of the govt are guilty of this recruitment crime. Check the list of those recruited into the armed forces, esp the NDA, customs, police, the dreaded immigration, civil service, etc have the successful candidates not always been a godchild of one important person?

Since this CBN's own has come to limelight it is an opportunity for the Nigerian youth to come together to fight this evil once and for all. We have the muscle to do the fight through the power of the social media and all means at our disposal.

Let all naija youth fight this injustice. I appeal to the jobless Yoruba and Igbo youth to sheath their swords and fight this common enemy instead of warring over irrelevant issues that benefit no one.

Let the fight begin.

Just making common sense people.

Ebubeslym:
Temitemi your role model no dey play politics of bitterness like the Apshits....

Fayose is better than Awo..

Quote me anywhere.

I wonder these folks were brought up. Africans are known for being respectful, ie showing respect for our culture, heritage, traditional institutions, the aged and elders. I believe it is only in society where these are lacking you see people heep derision at the doorsteps of the elderly or tradition. In Yorubaland all over the world (cos we are blessed to have cousins outside the naija soil), it is only bastard children that do that.

What has the late sage gotten to do with an exuberrant Fayose seeking for relevance in his own way? If you dont know broda Fayose is just a comic relieve to the hard line posture of PMB. He is yet to define his own ideology. He is not doing bad either. I may not share his ideals but he is a yorubaman and we still share certain affinities. May be what he did is so strange to you but it is normal for you to accord respect to your elders. Fayose is just showing he is a true Yorubaman. May the lord bring peace to yorubaland. No more to politics of bitterness.
God bless YORUBALAND!

Eni ti ko ni iru eni, ko le mo iyi eni (sorry for my lagos yoruba though, someone should translate that for the bastards)

Egbon Sobulor was a policeman who put fear in the minds of criminal elements those days in mushin. While growing up in the suburb of mushin I could remember how he checkmate the excesses of the notorious Gani Adams killer opc. I remember you for your good work sir, and how you save Lagos and native lagosians from the hell of Gani Adams. Ur death is a shock to us. Rest in peace egbon.

The problem with Nigeria is we are always quick to condemn the men without a chance to fair hearing. We have forgotten that these long vehicle drivers see themselves as demi-gods cos those vehicles are owned by powerful ppl in the society. Some of these drivers at times are acting under the influence of different drugs, tramo, roche,sk, hemp etc

We should not forget that if not for the tireless efforts of these naval ratings some of these areas will be no go areas.

Ask the residents of apapa, ojuelegba, kirikiri, wilmer and its environs they will tell you better.

Dont let our disdain for the profession cloud our reasons of judgement. These are men and women who give their lives to keep us safe.

The long vehicle drivers need the new orientation to be law abiding.

Though I am part fulani,courtesy of my lovely mother but I dont understand why these herdsmen are so barbaric. Each community needs to rise up in arms. I think the yoruba community used to have this agbekoya thing, its high time they acted to checkmate this nonsense in yorubaland. Forgive me grandpa for raising this suggestion o
