Well-said...

epainos:
It is not yet over if Zelensky is smart
Well, he has fought a good fight, but we must learn from this issue. Get your money, if not, you will be talked down even in your family meetings. Get your money. And if you are temporarily getting help, avoid anything called argument or confrontation with sources you are getting help from. As soon as you see 'sh.ts coming your way, quickly change direction.

Zelensky needs to act fast and smart. It is not yet over.

Barrister, you are funny . First, you asserted that the APP judgement was delivered by a High Court, a blatant lie, disproved by the link provided by Fergie. It is quite interesting that rather than acknowledge the fact that your initial submission was wrong, you resorted to muddling issues with "struck out" vs. "dismissed" talk.

BreconHills:
I have read the ruling in the APP and the latest PDP case. In the APP case the case was "struck out" meaning the court treated it as if it had never been filed. In the PDP judgement it was "dismissed" dismissed is not a technical term. It means the prayers of the apellants were dismissed. If the prayers of the apellant in this case the PDP were dismissed then the situation returns to status quo ante. Which is that the APC LG councillors are the only validly elected LG representatives.

Both the PDP and the LP have had dubious legal performance by their legal teams. In the 2023 election they showed poor grasp of facts and law and poor coordination in their strategies.

APC maybe by reason of its opposition years has a battle hardened and highly experienced team. Not surprising when Messrs Osinbajo and Fashola are coordinating affairs.

As a lawyer with at least 34 years of post call experience, I make bold to say that once again APC has shown up the ineptitude of the PDP legal team. If even a law school student does not know there difference between " struck out" and "dismissed" they have no right wearing a wig and collar.

My final word.

With all these lamentations here and there, the press9jaTV guy is just ridiculing himself here.

Prince111111:
Honestly you said my complete mind. A two-faced person is dangerous to the society. And that is why Nigeria has been retrogressing.

Eriokanmi,
Accepted that a trade war is unhealthy for both countries, but you are really overestimating the economic capacity of Canada. If you live here, you will weep for the country called Canada. A combination of incompetency and policy gerrymandering in the last few years have done an irreparable damage to the economy. Circa 2010/2012, the CAD was at par with the USD. In fact, if you step into some shops, the two currencies are interchangeable for making purchases. However, today, the CAD is equivalent to 0.69 USD.

Besides the fact that most of the multinationals, still operating profitably in the country are foreign-owned, what Canada is manufacturing/exporting to the rest of the world now is grossly insufficient. In my opinion, before picking up a trade fight with the US, Canada should first dismantle trade barriers between the provinces. This decades old internal trade barrier is so bad that rather than finding a way to resolve it, each provincial government always prefers the easy way out; increase trade with the neighboring states in the US. An indefinite piggybacking on the Big Brother, the US, at the expense of developing robust interprovincial infrastructures and trading framework has consequences.

Now that the chicken has finally come to roost with Trump as POTUS, maybe it is time the federal government/provincial leaders revisit the moribund Canadian Free Trade Agreement (CFTA), liberalizing trade internally, removing stupid exemptions/restrictions and making the country very attractive for Canadian/foreign investors, regardless of the tariff situation.

By the way, the relationship between Canada and China/India is currently at an all-time low. There is no love lost between JT and the leaders of the aforementioned countries. In fact, given the opportunity, Xi Jinpin and Narendra Modi will tighten the trading screw, just to teach JT a hefty lesson .

Overall, since Canada’s exports to the US (75%) are more than double the US export to Canada, and the discordant tunes coming from some of the provincial leaders, dialogue is the way out here. The current tit-to-tat approach, adopted by JT is unsustainable. On the long-term, it will ultimately destroy many large/small-scale businesses in Canada.

Eriokanmi:
Mexico isn't Canada. Mexico is like some african nations wallowing in poverty. They don't have a choice but dance to Trump's tunes..Trump has met his match. Canada is no small country and those who have been there would concur. You know what? Canada too goes to China like the usa does so, it's not as if they're benefiting substantially from the usa. Trump will be disgraced in the end. Imagine south africa telling Trump to mind his business. I read it here this evening. I see more jabs coming from other nations to him

He should just focus on making America great again, according to his slogan . Good luck to him

Besides his over-pandering to the left on some issues, Justin really tried for Canadians. Although he and his team handled the COVID-19 crisis quite well, the slow economic recovery/inflation has become an albatross. Dude is really a nice guy, and he single-handedly saved the Liberal Party from going into extinction in 2013. I wish him the best, and hope that Pierre Poilievre will step-up, if he becomes the PM after the next election.

AcrossTheEarth:
He is still well-loved by many of us real Canadians. You and your father have left an honorable legacy, good Sir. Thank you for all your efforts. Merci beaucoup.

With all due respect, some of your posts are sometimes so puerile, and senseless.

You are not alone...the nonsense happening in Enugu in the name of revenue generation is mind-boggling. I abandoned some of my undertakings in Enugu for now, Gov Mbah will not be there forever.

NwaliE01:
ENUGU STATE has been frustrating my business start-up. I have SPENT over N9m this few days on just clearing land huddle with the local community at ABAKPA NIKE. Enugu is one of the WORST places for start-ups.
I didn't forsee this, otherwise nothing in this WORLD would have made to buy the piece of land. Should I even talk about other government frustrating enterprises?
Government just proposed increasing CofO charges from current N2000 to N4000 per sqm.
This is the ease of doing biz they are talking about.
W!CKED people in government.

The guy you quoted is such a huge joke that I kept shaking my head while reading his drivels.

huptin:
The bile in your blood is way too high for a normal human being.

I wish you had been properly brought up to know that throwing insults at someone you don't know betrays a high level of stupidity but since it's too late to correct that : hypertension is the greatest killer of fools with too much bile in their blood, make sure you check your BP today!

You are so uninformed

Gentlevip:
If you understand the region, this is a big trouble to Israel.

Israel state will come to hate Netanyahu. Just wait for the next weeks.

I won't say much. But keep watching

Who told you that Tesla was a Chinese idea? Nope, the Tesla idea was originally conceived by two American car enthusiasts (Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning).

malali:
A lot of inventions in the modern day are also the same, Microsoft was said to be purchased from some Indian software programmers then Bill gates brought in sponsors and popularized it after buying it off them and making them sign NDA's
Same thing with TESLA, it was the Chinese's idea, bought off them and popularized by Elon Musk.

It's really shocking that a full professor in a Nigerian university has an almost zero research output

emmahoney:
Ogas at the top are likely involved. Her research output and other important metrics for becoming a full professor are too low. Her name was not found in the Scopus database, although it is on Researchgate. Her profile is still low!! People in academia will understand my point very well.

Now, they made her acting VC!!

My comment has nothing to do with bitterness. After all, I don't know her neither does she know me. But the truth must be told. She is not a good researcher.

Lol, I wonder who the dude thinks he is fooling with his rants.

1x2x3:
The attached photo shows who you truly are so stop masquerading and don't act like you are not a staunch tribalist.

A very silly comment!

The guy you quoted is a confirmed clown, who is always in a hurry to display his bias against Israel.

Br4life:
300 and u called it warning,ok ok we have heard now go and take your drugs

The original poster is either uninformed or deliberately silly. A comparison of the economy of both countries will confirm that whereas Iran has almost 10 times the population of Israel, it lacks the wherewithal to prosecute a war of serious magnitude. Iran is a country blessed with abundant natural resources and smart people, but the country is almost ruined by the intermingling of religion with politics.

Jogs1900:
From their defense budget, you should know that isreal is stronger militarily.

It is obvious from your post that you are quite uninformed about the economy of both countries. For your information, Iran's GDP per capita is not even up to 10% of the value for Israel. Check other indicators via the link below, and you will realize that your previous submission is pure bullshit.

professor100:
You are the one without facts here. Go, and research, and come back with data. Then I can engage you. Yes, war is about technology now, why are USA, UK, and Saudi coming with their technology to assist them from been cleared out flat. For Iran to attack from their country shows that they are not in the same level with them.

Iran is only afraid of what UK and US will say. But they have come out to issue another threat, that next one will be worse than that. What can be worse than 300 missiles my brother. Let's not fool ourselves.

Iran is way richer than them.. Iran have used money to acquire more sophisticated weapons than ever. Israel have nothing in comparison with Iran.

Read my initial comment again. But I'm never in support of war

What a drivel!

AllenSpencer:
Because Iran abides by rules. Not the dumb IDF that attacks women and children, and still end up getting fried in Northern Israel were they have their match.

Civilian infrastructures were not targeted and Israel should be thanking Iran for that.

Mazi Ugwoke, you are actually doing a disservice to the former governor with the way you are responding to people here. Whereas I agree that the former governor is an easy-going gentleman, I am of the firm opinion that he underperformed as a governor .

Honestly, can you compare Ugwuanyi’s eight year tenure with that of his peers in Ebonyi State or Anambra State? Indeed, the last federal election in Enugu State was a referendum on Governor Ugwuanyi tenure, and it was a humiliating verdict. His performance as a governor was so bad, and unparalleled in the history of Enugu State, that even his own senatorial zone rejected him! So, I really don’t understand what you are defending.

Ugwuoke347:
You are foolish!

Get out of here, and go play in the sand!

Good choice, Fergie001 is quite objective and forthright despite his political leaning.

So true, armed militancy will never serve as a solution to political problems.

SoNature:
I heard that Israelis in the United States are flying back to Israel to help finish off Gaza while the US is supplying aids to Israel.

What Hamas is doing in Palestine can be likened to what some separatists are doing in the South East. You get into a fight you cannot win and innocent people will bear the brunt. In all this, the people are just helpless!

No mind the guy, he fails to understand that terrorism is quite different from conventional warfare. The United States with arguably one of the best military intelligence and resources was still caught napping by the 9/11 events. My comment does not in any way excuse the poor Israeli intelligence and security lapses that made this level of attack possible.

PoliticalChinex:
Mumu Hamas arse-licker. U will watch as Isreal finish them off. No single Hamas member that participated in the attack will survive. Isreal will hunt and kill all of them including the ones that run out of the country. Mumu go and read the history of Isreal millitary force ewu gambia

There is nothing really surprising here per se, this is a disaster in the making for the last nine months. The decision of some of the Israeli army reservists (members of an Elite Intelligent Unit inclusive) to abandon their duty post and join the anti-government protest contributed to this mess. Of course, while it is okay for people to fight the Netanyahu government's bid to make a sweeping judiciary overhaul, it should not be at the expense of the national security. The image of the military openly revolting against the government has been the right opening for detractors.

The situation was so bad that a top officer in the Israeli Defence Ministry warned about the damage the unprecedented activism in the history of the nation was causing. Well, now that the chickens have come home to roost, the Israelis would need a serious introspection. In fact, the country will never be the same again. With the number of fatalities thus far, I wonder what some of the protest leaders would be thinking at the moment.

vivaciousvivi:
I am honestly still in shock. They purportedly have one of the most sophisticated and expensive underground Intel network in the world. How the attacks failed to reach their Intel units is still baffling. The Islreali defense minister has a case to answer as well imo. Baffling!

For real? With this type of mindset, Nigeria is a lost cause. It's shocking that some of my compatriots seem not to comprehend the dire implications of disclosures from this BAT certificate saga.

garfield1:
He will write GCE and present it

The retort "May they all labour in vain," should also apply to those folks swearing affidavits up and down

duro4chang:
That will be the handiwork of headless mob. May they all labour in vain.You can imagine what they are doing to our judges in Nigeria if they can do a thing like this to a judge in far away US.

Check the header on the 2nd page of the affidavit document; it shows the date the document was filed.

stocktaker:
. I can't find any date on the affidavit

I initially believed the story that BAT worked as an accountant in Mobil Nigeria, but his purported Business and Administration certificate circulating now makes that claim questionable.

ganisucks:
Which Mobil? Did you see him there? That one na washee.

It's obvious that "Bola Tinubu" used documents belonging to another individual to secure admission in the US. Thereafter, he had no option but to stick to the 'borrowed" name.

ikechiji:
The admitted Chicago State University and Community college certificates are consistent with the rumours that "Bola Tinubu" was the name of Tinubu's adoptive mum's daughter who died. "Bola Tinubu" then adopted her name and went to the US with her student visa. That is why you have never seen Bola Tinubu's primary school, secondary school or even WAEC certificates. That is why he did not list his primary or secondary school on his 2023 INEC forms (the primary/secondary schools he listed in the 1999 forms were shown to be fake). That is why we don't know his primary or secondary school classmates. His supporters should show us a single witness that knew "Bola Tinubu" in primary or secondary school.

This is so shocking! Nevertheless, besides paying a hefty compensation to Kenny, Wande will get his comeuppance in due course. The greedy idiot doesn't even know that it takes divine favor for an airline business to succeed in Nigeria.

Fergie001 would be a great choice. Although he seems affiliated to the PDP, dude is quite objective, easygoing and politically well-informed.

echeprecious:
Its fergie001 for me, I have been here long enough
and i admire his mature and unbiased stand to issues especially when it's political.

Chimaroke, zukwanu ike! If not that Nigeria is a crime scene managed by criminals, Chimaroke and some of his Ebeano Boys would have been locked away years ago.

Abeg, no matter how bad a democratic dispensation is, it will always trump a military intervention.

Billionaire2:
People may not agree with me but ….. if not that Nigerian military is politically compromised and highly tribalized… I prefer military rule to this present political system…

Apparently, all African countries under military are more peaceful than Nigeria
