Submitted that Gbajabiamila was not a fit and proper person to be elected as a federal lawmaker or speaker having been allegedly convicted of a $25,000 fraud by the Supreme Court of the State of Georgia, USA.


Justice Inyang Ekwo, of the Federal High Court, has ordered that Femi Gbajabiamila, a federal lawmaker, be served through substituted means the proceedings of the suit seeking to remove him from the House of Representatives over his alleged conviction in the US for fraud-related offences.

Justice Ekwo said that since the court was unable to serve the processes on Gbajabiamila in person, the lawyer to the plaintiff, Olasupo Azeez, should do so by substituted means.

“Cases of this nature are of public interest, and it’s either you are ready or not,” the judge said.

As a result, Ekwo adjourned the matter until Friday, June 7, for further mention.

The originating summons filed by Philip Undie through an originating summons by his lawyer, Barr. Ayodele Justice, submitted that Gbajabiamila was not a fit and proper person to be elected as a federal lawmaker or speaker having been allegedly convicted of a $25,000 fraud by the Supreme Court of the State of Georgia, USA.

Undie is contending that under Section 66(1) (C) and (D) of the 1999 Constitution and the verdict of the Supreme Court of Georgia, “The mood of our nation today will not warrant placing the position of the speaker of the House of Representatives in the hands of any individual that has a tainted or questionable character.”

In the affidavit attached to the suit, Undie averred that Gbajabiamila, who was then known as Femi Gbaja, accepted payment of $25,000 client’s money as personal injury claims and deposited those funds in his attorney trust account in January, 2003, which he failed to disburse to the client.

He further stated that Gbajabiamila violated Rule 1-15(1) of Georgia Rules of Professional Conduct in Bar Rule 4-102(d), which is punishable with disbarment and was suspended from law practice in the USA for 36 months (three years) even though he refunded the client’s money in 2006 and “his lawyers filed a certification of compliance of the Supreme Court ruling as of March, 2007.”

Meanwhile, a member of the House of Representatives, Raphael Nnanna, has brought an application to be joined in the suit seeking to stop Gbajabiamila.

Justice Ekwo directed the counsel to Nnanna, C. Onyemachi, to serve the application for joinder on the parties in court.

Oya yoruba Muslim are waiting for u

Haha you know them.
Even the Christians as well. Turning their face the other side because Osinbajo claims he is one of them.

GoTV:
May God continue to bless the imam for saving innocent lives despite seperate beliefs. We Christians should learn from this imam and be tolerant to people of other faiths especially Muslims. How many pastors will hide non Christians in their churches?. Let's put humanity first before religion. Let's live together in peace and unity

Stop this silly sentimentalisation.

The reasons why you do not hear about Pastors hiding Muslims in their mosques is very, very simple. Historically, Christian youths are hardly the instigators of these violence. Or have you heard of when, after a Sunday's service, Christian youths go out to chop the heads of Muslims, screaming, "Jesus is Lord" while doing so?

Of course not.

And when they've had the chance of hiding Muslims from being killed by reactionary violence, Pastors have done so. Many, many, many times. I am sure residents in Jos, Kaduna, etc, can affirm this. That they do not publicise it is because they are not supposed to publicise it, according to the instruction from the Bible.

So stop the patronising sentimentalisation.

Very poor maintenance culture.

Chief, does this looks like maintenance fault or intentional damage?

Freehuman:
That's According to rumours and conspiracy theories. The CIA is not actually tied to the left wing at the moment. The "left and right" wings are used to describe ideologies first, before countries. Even in the United States there's a cold conflict between the left and right wing. The democrats represent the left, the party of free thinkers , atheists, LGBT, feminists, anti racists, liberals and those who tend to support abortion while the Republican Party is made up of those who are conservative and constantly act as antagonists to the liberals.

Facebook place bans on anti abortion and anti gun control pages regularly and the ideas promoted by such pages are those of the right wing which Trump is a fan of. I think it's why most of the 500 fortune CEOs (Jeff Bezos of Amazon , Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook
and Larry Page of Google) do not really like Trump.

For the first time the CEO of these companies have been invited and questioned by the Congress during this present administration , on one occasion Google's CEO was questioned on why Donald Trump's images come up when someone searches for "idiot" via Google Image search.

Zuckerberg has always been in love with the Chinese even though they do not love him. He is married to a Chinese woman, Chan , though an atheist, practices some principles of Buddhism (a Chinese religion). Do you think it's a mistake that Trump and his close associates choose to communicate with twitter though Facebook INC through its instagram, messenger and FB has a higher audience reach than Twitter?

The conservatives want to break the power of the social media, they believe it has become powerful than countries.

To your question: Trump has always been a Twitter person, much before he became President. There are many reasons why one would opt for Twitter as opposed to Facebook. My Facebook account has been deactivated for some years now due to my hectic schedules. My Twitter account, no. Twitter has a more direct reach to audiences, in comparison to Facebook.

And agreed, while there are no evidence that shows the direct collusion between Facebook and the CIA, there are no evidence that indicate that this isn’t happening. Facebook is a data-dump. The “Intelligence” in the CIA is for data gathering and analysis. CIA have always funded or played some role in data-driven tech startups in Silicon Valley. This is public knowledge.

http://www.businessinsider.com/25-cutting-edge-companies-funded-by-the-central-intelligence-agency-2012-8

To use those vague words the CIA is known for, it is “highly likely” that these two are in bed with each other.

It was crazy. I nearly died from over thinking.

My sister is done with masters since, got a fully funded PhD fellowship in Nuclear physics.

She is my hope right now. Trying to process my admission and get potential scholarship opportunity.

I hope it pulls through.
To your sister: “Welcome to the PhD club.”

RTSC:
That PRESSID thing is still paining me till today.
My sister won it under Jonathan and traveled out.

I was supposed to be the beneficiary, but I applied for her instead because I was working.

When I was ready to apply, buhari came in and cancelled it.

I am sorry to hear that, Bro. I know a couple of people who had similar stories. I also know a few people who have good stories. Used the PRESSID for their MSc's and PhD's and have now being snapped up by other countries.

The most important determinant in the life of any citizen is and always would be the government of the country. A single decree/legislature/order can change the course of citizens, no matter how fullproof they think they are.

A recent data by Studying-in-UK.org, a leading information portal about UK higher education system, has shown a steady decline in the enrollment rate of Nigerian students in UK varsities in the past three years. The UK is becoming a less coveted destination for education by Nigerians.



According to the latest report, 10,540 Nigerian students were enrolled in UK universities in the 2017/18 academic year. In the 2012/2013 session, the figure was 17,390, amounting to 39 percent decrease in three years.



Based on the latest official enrollment data about 183 higher education providers in the UK, Studying-in-UK.org discovered that students from former British colonies account for almost 29 percent of all international students, but their number has decreased by 6 percent compared to five years ago.



The report also noted that although the number of Indian students had decreased by 12 percent compared to five years ago, India remains the most popular country of origin for international students coming from former British colonies. During the past academic year, exactly 19,750 Indian students were studying in the UK.



For many years, the UK and the United States have been top study destinations for Nigerians. Reasons for the rush abroad are obvious: The decline in the standard of education in Nigerian varsities and several other factors. Other factors like job prospects after graduation, better opportunities and prestige have fueled the migration of Nigerian students abroad over time. But this is changing.



Many reasons have been advanced for this steady decline in enrollment rate of Nigerians in UK varsities. The Department of Education in the UK recently relaxed its post-study rule for undergraduate and master’s students. Before, international students had to return to their home countries immediately after their studies. Following the recent policy change, they will now be eligible to work for six months post-graduation, while doctoral candidates are eligible to renew their stay for up to one year.



The high cost of studying in the UK is also a crucial factor. This was what discouraged Amiebi, a Nigerian from Rivers State from studying in the UK last year. “For me, the UK is too expensive. That was why I went to India,” Amiebi, who just graduated from the Noida International University in India, told Sahara Reporters.



Agu Onyemaechi, who completed a master’s degree in Environmental Sustainability at the Birmingham City University, United Kingdom, spent roughly £15000 on tuition and living cost in 2014.

If Onyemaechi were to enroll for the same degree now, he would have to pay almost double the amount he spent in 2014 because of the drop in the value of the naira.

Professor Segun Ajibola, the President/Chairman of Council, Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria, attributed the drop in enrolment rate on the economic downturn which saw a drastic fall of the naira against the dollar and the GBP.

Sharing his views on the issue with Sahara Reporters, Ajibola, who is also the Dean, College of Postgraduate Studies, Caleb University, maintained that the situation had been made worse because parents sending their children to study in the UK have not witnessed an increase in income.

He said, “Their capability to sponsor their children overseas has reduced significantly because of the foreign exchange rate. The second reason is that in Nigeria, so many private universities are almost of equal standard to British schools in terms of facilities and availability of programs. This has also reduced the attraction to UK varsities.

“Just as the UK has witnessed a reduction in enrolment rate, I am sure that it is the same for the US and other parts of Europe if the records are confirmed. Prospective college students are encouraged to stay back home. If it costs you N5m per annum to sponsor your child abroad, now it will cost you around N10m to do so. Where do you get the N10m? This is because your income as a parent income has not increased by a similar proportion in the last couple of years.”

Ajibola lamented that the rush for education abroad was seriously affecting the Nigerian economy.

The don called for more funding of Nigerian universities.

He added, “This is a challenge to the Nigerian government to improve the quality of educational services in Nigerian in order to discourage the migration to Europe, Africa and American schools. The less it happens, the better for us in Nigeria economically.

“The conditions in these European countries are becoming tougher, stricter and less conducive. Before, in some European countries, the attraction was that if you studied there, you could stay back and work but some countries are discouraging this. Nigerian graduates out there are struggling with the fact that they have to go back to their country after their studies. Where are the jobs in Nigeria? Is it not better to slug it out at home rather than spend so much acquiring education abroad only to return home to face unemployment?”

When you have a President with a PhD and keen on education, partnering and collaborating with stronger economies on education will obviously grow.

When you have a President who does not know how to express himself, he will not only cancel PRESSID, but ensure that he destroys education at all levels.

Come on, Nigerians, let us stop this pretense. We should start to tell ourselves the truth.

Freehuman:
That's why they are trying so hard to break Facebook. Zuckerberg now has that power.

Zuckerberg works hand-in-hand with the CIA and the Left.

Officialgarri:
America and media. One of America's biggest war equipment is the media. No one dare doubts their credibility.
Well, that's typical of imperialists.

I'm waiting for the day the media will ask why America have the supreme right to develop its own nuclear weapon and keep it, yet some other countries can't.

True about the media. However the social media appear to have, for now, broken the potency of America’s Media War Machine. What the media does very well as a tool of war, is to build a narrative and sustain by endless repetition. The months preceding the Iraq war saw how highly effective that war machine was. Soon in many parts of America and indeed the world, people joined the call for war on Iraq because they believed that, somehow, Saddam and Iraq had something to do with the 19 terrorists 9/11 bombers, asides the phantom accusations of WMDs.

It’s a bit difficult now. Washington tried and failed in sustaining the narrative [mainly lies] on Syrian President Assad; they will claim that he is “killing his own people” and the public will rush to social media and find out that it’s a creation of the CIA. The media onslaught on Venezuela appears to have failed, while the continued media onslaught on Russia, aided by the British MI5 appears to have failed for now. And this is despite the combined efforts of Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, Elliot Abrams and Florida’s Senator Marco Rubio.

Yes, the American colonialists will still try but their war machine in the media, effective many years ago, is loosing its efficiency. Which is a good thing.

A truer picture of our present condition has never been painted.

Interesting times ahead, people.

Obama and the West knew what they were doing when they intervened in Nigeria's 2015 elections.

Nigeria was steadily storming in the economics chart and that meant one thing. Independence from the West.
The imperialists were never going to allow that Luckily for them (and unluckily for Nigeria) they had many foolish Nigerians in their millions who supported their intervention.
Now they have set Nigeria back by decades

Flashyoil1:
Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has again lashed out at the Vice Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Peter Obi, for saying that he (Amaechi) is not politically relevant to discuss whether Igbos should have the Presidency in 2023 or not.

Amaechi, who spoke on the sidelines, at an Interactive forum of Maritime Stakeholders in Lagos, said the former Anambra State Governor does not have the credibility to speak on the matter because he could not win the presidential election.

Amaechi also said right from when he became Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly till date his name has been in the front burner of national politics far more than Peter Obi.

Amaechi said that for the Igbos to get the Presidency in 2023, they must be part of “National Politics”.

According to Amaechi, “Peter Obi said I’m not an Igbo man and that I don’t have the locus to discuss whether Igbo Presidency will be or not in 2023. That comment is a very sad and cheap one from him.

“But the truth is that Peter Obi too does not have the locus to speak about Igbo Presidency because he and his party couldn’t win the presidential election.

“Aside from that, it’s most unfortunate that Peter Obi, a man I defeated to become the Chairman of Nigeria Governors Forum(NGF), when we were both governors, can wake up today to say I am not relevant in the polity to talk about national issues when journalists ask me questions about it.

“I think what is important, which I have said to the Igbos severally is that they need to be part of national politics. If they are not part of National Politics they cannot be President.

“National Politics means that an Ikwerre man must have his interest covered by the Igbos If they want to be President. The Yoruba man must have the Igbos cover their interests, the Hausa, Fulani people must also be confident that their interests are covered by the Igbos.

“I support Igbo Presidency. I believe that it’s the Igbo turn to produce the next President of Nigeria because they have not been there before. The country will be unfair to the Igbos if they say it’s not their turn. But it can’t be your turn and you don’t want to fight for it. You want us to wake you up from sleep and say come and take, it is your turn? It doesn’t work like that and it will not work that way. So, Peter Obi should close his mouth. He lost an election which I won and that’s why President Buhari, not Atiku will be sworn-in tomorrow as President,” he explained.

I got that 70% from Sunday Oliseh

Haha, OK.

Because when you look at the number of football-related jobs- coaching, government roles, etc, which you have ex-footballers and non-footballers applying for it, then the 70% is probably higher.
Smart footballers do like Flamini, Mata, Eto, Drogba, Neville and invest their money into assets and busineses before they retire.
Unfortunately, many are not smart.

BabaAlabi:
Very vital. We can include that in the grassroots support.

lol @ grassroots support.

It is very, very, vital. Amongst the top 3 things he has to do.
If possible, he should hire disenfranchised and disgruntled OPC and other cult members. And maybe bullion vans. Sadly as Tinubu has shown recently, this is important to win elections in Lagos State. The people's vote isnt enough.

BabaAlabi:
Step 1: Go home, cry, mourn the loss of the sweet governorship position.

Step 2: Pick yourself up and start working again. Plot for a ministerial position.

Step 3: Build up your grassroots support. Ensure majority of Igbos in Lagos have their PVC.

Step 4: Officially Decamp to PDP.

Step 5: Open the pandora's box of Tinubu's godfatherism and denigrate SanwoOlu's admin.

Step 6: Become PDP governorship candidate and Run against Jide in 2023.

Step 7: Win your mandate back.

You forgot a level before Step 3. "Hire enough armed and trained hooligans".

He needs it if Step 3 will be done.

Nigerians home and abroad know that political party and that one person.

I like Mikel's top. Really cool

Even the children's clothes aren't cheap. I suspect they'll cost hundreds of pounds.

This is the problem most footballers face. After retirement, they go broke because there's no job out there that'll bring this current standard of living.

From £80,000 a week to nothing.

Not everyone can be a Zidane and coach his former club earning senseless amounts of money. It is estimated 70% of footballers go broke after football like Taribo West I hope Mikel is never ends up like that.

That 70% figure is probably higher than that.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has blamed President Muhammadu Buhari for rise in suicides and other social ills in the country.

The opposition party made this allegation in a statement signed by the PDP’s spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Sunday, May 26, 2019, Pulse NG reports.

The party further blamed the ruling All Progressive Congress and the President for doing nothing in the face of rising insecurity across the country.

The party said:



The PDP also complained about Nigeria’s rising debt profile under Buhari as well as the alleged elevation of incompetence, deceit, propaganda, failure and “cabal mentality”

While u may be right, I still believe efcc has right to tackle any company defrauding nigeria.

True.
And there are more civil and business-friendly ways of doing so and getting the same result. Like quietly inviting the company to their office for a chat. Like sending letters. Like asking the regulatory body (NCC) to step in. You will not get the media effect I know, but you will get the result you want— they pay the money they are owing.

You will get the same result and still keep the business and invariably help Nigerians keep their job and also send a message to investors that you are business-friendly. You will show that you are still a democracy.

Running on emotions is a dangerous strategy to take. It always results in regrets. Why many Nigerians don’t get this bemuses me.

Is Rwanda Genocide Being Replicated In Nigeria By Fulanis? 6 Steps To Genocide - FFK

Senior Advocate of Nigeria and former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has been singing this 'Fulanisation Of Nigeria' and nobody seems to listen. I personally is seeing salient reasoning in all his fears and I thank God that even some notable Nigerians are now giving credence to his ruse.

According to him, this is exactly how Rwanda genocide started and since Buhari's loyalist and those following him blindly are not good students of history, all of us cannot sit and watch what claimed more than 1 millions citizens in Rwanda replicate itself in Nigeria.

FFK have carefully outlined the 6 major steps that brought Rwanda nation to its knees and how they got to the genocide that claimed more than 1 million people. And it will interest you to know that out of the 6 steps, we have now gotten to the 5th stage in Nigeria. We need to stop this impending doom before it starts.

This is no longer APC or PDP thing anymore and I wish this stupid youths and every Nigerian should wake up and see how their future may turn out to be. Below is the 6 steps as outlined by Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode. THE ROAD TO RWANDA: 6 steps to GENOCIDE:

1. The Hutu militia iinterahamwe in Rwanda started just like the herdsmen AKA bandits in Nigeria before the genocide.

2. The Govt. of, Rwanda headed by a Hutu, tactically encouraged them same as the bandits are encouraged in Nigeria...

3. They have a radio station for easy coordination just like new Fulani radio for coordination.

4. The Hutu militias 'Interahamwe' were supported by the Burundi Hutus just like Nigeria bandits are backed by Niger, Chadian etc. Fulanis.

5.Suddenly before the genocide,guns were mopped up from the innocent civilians by the then Rwanda govt. headed by Hutus.Just like it will happen in Nigeria soon.

6.Then the signal is the sudden assassination of the Hutu Pres.,the genocide that claimed over 1 million lives began.

Out of the 6 steps to genocide we have completed 5.

Pray against this bloodshed but be prepared. Pray for peace. Pray for your family. Pray for your towns and villages. Pray for your ethnic group. Pray for your nation. Pray for West Africa. Say NO to war and genocide!

I think Obasanjo is 100% correct, and the agenda is Real and it is coming very fast: Just last week ₦100 billion was approved for Fulani herdsmen; this week Federal Government approved Fulani Herdsmen Radio. This same week Buhari gave order to annul gun license; meaning people will not have what to defend themselves.

What else do you want to hear this generation that lacks foresight? God..

More @ http://www.exlinklodge.com/2019/05/is-rwanda-genocide-trying-to-be.html?m=1

History repeats itself. It just chooses different places to do so. Nigerians, most Nigerians I would say, realise the truth in FFK words. But you I know Nigerians. They will be happy to play the ostrich, dance in their music, laugh at their comedy and pretend as their way of responding to this strong allegation, wishing the inevitable goes away.

The killings by these herdsmen have been organised, systemic and effective. Any student of history will know that such killings cannot be done unless the government of the day supports it.

charliboy654:
First of all am not a pro buhari, u don't have to bring politics into everything, secondly mtn does not care about Nigeria. Finally we are talking of big multinational investment here not tech startup. If mtn was to leave nigeria today another company will take over immediately. When etisalate left did the workers loose their job.

When Etisalat left, many workers lost their jobs. I have friends who were senior network engineers that moved to Canada when Etisalat left. Etisalat would have had its vision, plans for the next x years, expansion plans etc. If any new company takes over it and does not fully buy into that vision— and in all cases, they don’t— then undoubtedly jobs and planned investments are lost. This is simple Economics.

Nigerians simply delude themselves with the numbers in her population. Without a productive population and security, why would any major investor invest in Nigeria? Do you know that the masts and network stations which Boko Haram destroyed in the North when they started, not all of these mast were replaced? In terms of “jobs” do you know what those masts represents?
