My brother can all the Lawyers and the chambers you mentioned come and defend him in U S A. This is another territory which these Nigeria Lawyers can't swim. They will be spectators.

lol.

You are clearly ignorant on the basics of legal matters.

Get charged by the FBI; you are entitled to a defence counsel provided by the State if you can’t afford one or yours regardless of where yours comes from, as long as yours works with a US-based legal counsel.

This is basic knowledge, Oga.

This is not about the money going through CBN, it's about money laundering through US banks and falsification of documents and false identity scams on the soil of the United States Of America.

The US is not EFCC or Nigeria where you come up with bogus, naive and goofy excuses that doesn't jive with matters o the table, take the charges seriously and start serious and credible defense on behalf of your client.

The Head of Alegh & Co, the Law Firm, is a SAN. With Nigerian and UK qualifications. Former Head of Chamber at Wole Olanipekun’s Chamber. There are other eminently qualified legal heads in that law office. I just did a check on their website.

I’m certain they know what they are doing. More than faceless keyboard warriors. I’m sure you will agree with me.


Relax.

Surely, Emery's position is now untenable.

A good coach should be squeezing 3 points out of all home matches. Not getting a lucky draw.
Emery is unfit for a top club.

Its the bitter truth. Apostle Joshua Selman earns my respect any day any time

By the way OP, you should have posted the full sermon.

You know what you're doing by posting just this short clip. You know he would be mocked.

Well done. You should be proud of yourself & your poverty mindset by now.

Nonsense

The OP knows what he/she was doing.
But I think most people here know that too.

Cowards. Waiting for the day some fellow would post some Islamic preaching and open it up for comments. I guess that day will never come. Bunch of lily-livered cowards.

Knox123:


I know some people will rush to this thread thinking it is Apostle Johnson Suleiman.

Seems he just purchased some plots of land or he is venturing into real estate...

Joke apart !

He is one of the preachers I listen to 100% I love his undiluted words...

Undiluted, blunt, straight-talking.

The US deployed the FBI, the CIA, the UK's MI5, Interpol, etc and came up with "hard proofs of Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction..."

Years after, millions of deaths, displaced, maimed Iraqis after, it has been proven that it was a hoax, an "idea designed by people using computer games."
No one trusts the US and its "evidences" since then. They dont even trust themselves. Thankfully, the United States is still a country of laws. The FBI has lost cases like these, countlessly and often times, based on technicalities. I hope if and when he wins this case, he sues the United States and all those that have conspired for reputational damage.

SonofDevil:
investigation has been on since 2010 and was concluded in 2018. Trust me they have evidences against him before they can go to court to issue warrant of arrest and seize the $14m in the accounts linked to him

This is getting serious. Dr. Allen Onyema should step down from his position at Air Peace until he clear his name, so as to save what is left of the brand. The board of directors should release a statement separating Allen from the brand. The airline must not be allowed to die over this scandal.

LOL.
Oga, this is a Private Company.
You realise this, do you?

o BOI see epistle it be like say it pain you...Oga no vex...

Ok.

lol,,, I wasn't the one giving out "WRONG INFORMATION"...You are.

Always get your fact rights before posting on internet.... a whole lotta wrong info on internet these days because of people like you...

Lol.
You are quite silly.
I made a statement, containing perhaps over a hundred words, and one was incorrect.
One out of a hundred, if we would approximate. That’s 0.01%.
You highlighted it and I promptly changed it.
You state, “facts”, hence plural, when it was a single word. That’s extremely disingenuous and a misrepresentation. Of course you know this.

In my line of work, I take errors extremely seriously— hence the change. I normally review all my words I put in a document, elsewhere, etc, and would have done so once I had some few spare minutes.

I’m not sure what else you want me to do.
Dance for you?
Your way of seeking attention from me is deeply disturbing, asides been humourous. Get a hobby or something. It’s a Saturday.

oz4real83:
Let's hope so. America doesn't engage in media trial like Nigeria. They must have done extensive investigation which may even have taken years before this came to the media. I just hope he is clean because he is one of the few "shinning lights" we have at the moment even though we don't know how it all started.

LOL.
CNN, MSNBC, The Hill, etc, and Russiagate Hoax.
What was that? Where did the term “fake news” originate?

Oga, don’t go there.

When America does a media trial, it is like the Nazis. Their Press will make you believe that your biologically proven parents are not your parents.

IFezki96:
it wasn't Madagascar but Equatorial Guinea in year 2004,,

Get your facts right before spewing trash...

Equatorial Guinea. That’s the name of the country.

Asides that, you sir are a heap of trash.
I am sure you know this anyway.

djdutchbrah:
Nigeria's fantastically corrupt politicians and dubious businessmen need to stop embarrassing us around the world.
David Cameron is laughing right now. There is no way we can repair the battered image of Nigeria around the world.

LOL. Shows how ignorant you are.

The fraud that American businessmen and women commit caused the GLOBAL financial crisis in 2007/2008 that lasted for years and threw the whole of the Western world and other parts of the world into recession.

The level and magnitude of fraud British business men from London commit can buy off countries in Africa and Asia. That’s why they quickly look for an African resource-rich country to do a coup in order to recoup their money. What drove Margaret Thatcher’s son to plan a coup in Equatorial Guinea? The coup that Robert Mugabe squashed? Why do you think the British hated him? Asides the black land ownership, his Secret Service did not allow any British Coup in Southern Africa.

Panama Papers of Tax dodgers and Tax Frauds, what nationalities filled the list?


Get a book and read.
You know nothing.

The assassination of JF Kennedy 56 years ago led to a total rethink of how the US presidential state cars are designed

https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/US-Presidential-State-Car-Cadillac-One-The-Beast-10.jpg

On November 22 1963, US President John F. Kennedy was fatally shot in an open-topped Lincoln Continental in Dallas, Texas, during a presidential motorcade.

That day, 56 years ago today, marks one of the darkest moments in American history. The assassination of John F. Kennedy led to a total rethink of how the presidential cars are designed.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pis-aRHBJDo

https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/JFK-Assassination-US-Presidential-State-Car-Cadillac-One-The-Beast.jpg

The 1961 unarmoured open-roofed Lincoln Continental SS-100-X left John F. Kennedy uniquely exposed.

Today, the United States presidential state cars are more of “Tanks” than a cars. The current models cover the presidents in thicker layers of armour and protection.

AutoJosh wants you to see the evolution of the US Presidential State Cars from the last five decades.

1961 to 1963: Lincoln Continental SS-100-X

https://i1.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/USA-TRUMP-JFK.jpg

The vehicle that President Kennedy was riding in on the day of his assassination was a 1961 open-roofed Lincoln Continental SS-100-X. The state car cost almost $200,000 (equivalent to about $1,700,000 in 2018).

It is the most sophisticated presidential state car yet built. It has heavy-duty heater and air conditioner and a pair of radiotelephones. Fire extinguisher, a first-aid kit and a siren are also available.

John F. Kennedy wouldn’t have survived the bullets in the unarmoured car even if the hardtop had been in place.

1963 to 1972: Lyndon B Johnson’s armoured Lincoln Continental

https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/US.png

Following Kennedy’s assassination, Lincoln Continental was redesigned for an estimated cost of $500,000. It received significant armour plating, bullet-proof hardtop, explosion-proof fuel tank and run-flat tyres.

The custom-built car remained in service until 1977, when it was retired to the Henry Ford Museum.

1972 to 1982

https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/US-Car.png

President Nixon in 1972

The Lincoln Continental was also used by Presidents Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan

The 1972 Lincoln Continental was the car in which President Gerald Ford was shot at by Sara Jane Moore.

https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Reagan.png

It is also the car that transported President Ronald Reagan to the hospital after he was shot in 1981. It is currently on display at the Henry Ford Museum.

Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham

In 1984, the US Secret Service switched to Cadillac. President Ronald Reagan used a state car based on the Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham. It featured armour and bulletproof glass.

Bush’s Lincoln Town Car

George HW Bush used an armoured Lincoln Town Car during his 4 year tenure as President of the United States.

https://autojosh.com/on-this-day-56-years-ago-us-president-john-f-kennedys-was-shot-dead-in-open-topped-presidential-state-car/

I visited this exact spot JFK was shot earlier in the year.
And peered through the window pane and saw the view that the assassin saw. The Library has been converted into a Museum of some sort. You’ll pay nearly $30 to get in it.

JFK was an engima. The brilliantly put pictures and videos will tell you about him. His family. His campaign. The Cuban missile crisis.

Step into Dallas and you will feel something different in the air— heavy, sombre, like some form of unseen unhappiness.
When I was told that it was the same town that JFK was shot, I wasn’t surprised.

How could you carry a baby in your womb for 9 months, breastfed and took care of him for several months only tomake him undergo this gruesome death?

What a world we live in.

The heart of man is “desperately wicked”

“Desperately” wicked means, can go at any lengths to show/prove wickedness.
Like this woman.

Blakjewelry:
some people need to be arrested as scape goat to warn other fools of such reckless act

Nothing will ever happen to them.

partnerbizn5:
I will call her on phone to come back home from wherever she is, hug and kiss her, reassure her of my love for her; prepare her favourite meal, and make the bed for her to sleep. We will look for the way forward afterwards ranging from sending her abroad to counselling.

You know why?

She needs me now more than ever. The whole world is against her. The hypocrites.

I will be with her now!

Another option is to disown her, let her go into depression and may be suicide.

I choose the former, first option.

Wisdom is profitable to direct!

Not everyone is a "hypocrite". You see what she did? Not everyone of us have done the same. Immorality is still abhorred by a good number of the population.

This is what people who refuse to take accountability start to do- demonise others instead of listening.

Soldier go soldier come
There's no way a Nigerian soldier is marrying any of my sisters. I don't want them to remarry soon.

Lol.

If she comes with the soldier— full-kit, with his M16 and his fully-kitted friends, armed too, perhaps just back from a mission— and she tells you, she wants to marry him, you’ll say “no”, abi?



You don’t say no to the man with the gun.

They don’t even know what they are fighting for.
Frankly, I don’t understand why young men— especially from the South— enlist in the Army. They seem to send them all up to the North, to their demise. But one cant fault the army here. You are sent and you obey orders. It is as simple as that.

President Buhari's aide, Bashir Ahmad has congratulated Burna Boy on his Grammy nomination.

He wrote:

"That ‘International Award’ is ours! Congratulations my guy, our own @burnaboy. More, more and more international recognitions. #AfricanGiant"

https://mobile.twitter.com/BashirAhmaad/status/1197185363921571840

AKA the South African guy is rubbishing Burna and this Bashir fellow was and is silent.

But to associate and tweet himself into Burna Boy's Grammy Nomination, he can do.
Hypocrite.

geesilver:
do you think this will now make them serious like u said. this is not a case of rape, molestation, or assault. this is a consensual sex between two people, that was secretly done recorded and leaked by who knows. does it tally with your example above.

Hold everyone, young and old, accountable to their deeds. And see how a society, community, locality would change.

All these inane rationalisations and explanations in the attempt to escape accountability is what makes Nigerian the way it is. Lawless. Down to the smallest core.

Very simple.

geesilver:
inasmuch as i don't support immorality but it would have been good for Babcock university to tamper justice with mercy. most of our youth does things out of youthful exorbitant without realizing the damage this could cause them and the NAMES attached to them. i was of the opinion of a more remorseful punishment than condemning them to the society. you cant bath a child and throw him away with the waste water.
this was never a case of rape or assault, it seems consensual, why crucifying them this much................treating them this way will never make them to learn a lesson from this rather their heart will be filled with bitterness and hatred towards society. they need us more............ let him without a sin cast the first stone.

“Temper justice with mercy....” — Follow this principle and you will give birth to failed states like Nigeria.

“Let the accused face the law/ have some accountability...”— Follow this principle and you will give birth to a serious State like Rwanda, like the U.K.

In the U.K., a Member of the Royal Family Prince Andrew, is undergoing investigations, brands have cut off with him, etc, since his interview about links to Epstein the murdered pedophile broke out. No one is saying, “pity him, this happened a long time”, or “pity him, he is a member of the Queens Family.”

Face the law. You want Nigeria to be a serious country? That’s where it starts from.

Benclever1:
Hello everyone.

So I met this girl through a mutual friend and we started bonding. Initially, I didn't take the friendship seriously because this lady is a little older than me and I do not see any future between us.

Now, things got more intense between us. She visited me one time, one thing leading to another, we were in bed, about to have sex and then I pulled out the condom but she refused, insisting that she doesn't enjoy sex with condom. I was very surprised to hear that, so I tried to make her see reasons why the condom is very necessary. She adamantly refused. We ended up not having the sex that day.

Just last week she visited again and we spent the night together. We tried to have sex again but the same issue came up again. She insisted I must not used condom. Now this got me upset. During the conversation that ensued, she made it very clear to me that she does not have any STD/STI so I should not be afraid. She however admitted that she was ovulating and that the chances of getting her pregnant was high, but that I should not worry that she'd take care of herself and the pregnancy, if it happens. She said that she would not force me to get involved with the baby if I don't want. However, she made very clear that she's not ready to get married. This got me confused.

I don't want to let my guards down by indulging in unprotected sex with someone I don't trust. I also do not want to hurt her feelings. So I plan to take her for medical tests next week and then we can kick it off from there.

What's your advise for me.

Thank you.

Sorry sir, but I may be harsh here...

“You are foolish.”

This is a sad but true commentary. Not sure people think this far. They think with their emotions and not their heads.

GeneralShepherd:
(

Cultism causes bodily harm to another human. If she raped the boy, different issue. It was consensual sex as moral reprehensible as it might be , it is not a crime

Oga. Even if it’s a cultism act that didn’t kill anyone or cause any harm, [because that people like you would say], it impinges on the character that the school advertises in their policy.

I have seen the policy documents of CU, Babcook, Wesley University Owo, Redeemers University— I can go on and on. Chastity is mandatory. It is better you avoid such schools if you know that you cannot stop fornicating. Life is simple.

GeneralShepherd:
If there was actually a rule forbidding sex outside campus , I will not argue as she agreed to those rules when she signed up but there are no rules that stated that sexual purity off campus is a prerequisite for graduation

If she goes outside the University, during holiday period and engages in cultism, should the University also allow her/the guy in because it’s holiday period?

In CHARACTER and learning Oga. You sign up for that when you get into any higher institution. Your certificate reads, “considered worthy in character and learning..”

You young people should learn how to call white, white and black, black. It doesn’t kill.

GeneralShepherd:
1. This was consensual sex

2. The act did not happen on campus

3. The act happened when Babcock Uni was on holiday.

4. The university claims to be saddled with the responsibility of making Nigeria great right? By inference sexual purity is the prerequisite for greatness right? Developed countries have a large number of sexually active youth. They all have very low birth rates as well as low rate of HIV prevalence (sex education and access to health care) and are all great by every human development index.

5. I have also read Babcocks rules and regulation and nowhere did it address having sex off-campus. It does mention that association with members of the opposite sex ON-CAMPUS is highly prohibited.

6. I will like to see what rules she must have broken that warranted her expulsion. This why no one takes Nigerian education seriously.

7. The university should be investigating whoever leaked this video for violation of privacy but this is Nigeria where hypocrisy reigns supreme.


NB. I AM A CHRISTIAN AND BELIEVE SEX SHOULD BE WITHIN A LOVING MARITAL RELATIONSHIP BUT EVEN I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE SEXUAL PARTNERS.

May God forgive our imperfections and I hope God will see this girl through this trying time

Babcock prides itself on being a Christian University, grounded on certain norms. Once you sign up to that University, you pledge to ABIDE by those norms and policies. Break it, you get expelled. This is commonsense.

All Universities— theocratic or otherwise— award certificates to individuals who have proven themselves worthy in CHARACTER and in learning. Break what they consider as “Character”, you face the consequences. And these goes for Universities outside Nigeria as well.

This again, is basic. It’s commonsense.

There’s no need to critique a University for doing what they signed up to do. Instead, and fully, the blame should go to the student(s) who fell foul of a simple rule.

If we want to be honest, this explanation is as simple as it comes. Why is there always a pushback, when it comes to holding people accountable, especially in Nigeria?

Racoon:
This has always been the problem.There is no political unity in the South.

LOL.

PDP had more than 10 Presidential candidates from the North.
After Atiku won, there were rumours that other Northern candidates helped scuttle his campaign.

Buhari’s most vociferous critique was Galadima, a family insider and his friend. Another Northern man.

Yet... "the south is not united".
Silly propaganda. I pity the Southerners that fall for this nonsense.

Officialgarri:
PDP supporters are the most aggressive set of thugs in the history of Nigeria. They never accept defeat peacefully.
It's either they are crying everywhere on social media or they are launching deadly attacks against their political rivals.

Well, years to come, PDP will be relegated to the level of parties like APGA...

APC are excellent strategists, I must say.

"Conduct" a militarised and fraudlent selection process in Kogi State.
So violently rigged that thugs killed people, burnt a woman in her own house, etc.
Then publish articles online and in print on how PDP's so-called process made their candidate to "win." Draw people to debate their propaganda articles and not to talk about the violent charade called an election.
These articles will continue (just watch) for some weeks, till they own the narrative of the "elections"

For Bayelsa, it was similar but less violent.
The rigging was done internally (through INEC) and through the courts- overturning a court order not to present a candidate at the election.
The next thing? Release several pictures of GEJ and their "leaders" in order to claim that GEJ helped them to "win".

So strategic, pre-planned and organised. These hit pictures and pieces will carry on till they convince Nigerians that despite the video and picture evidence, they held a "free and fair election".

It is part of politics, when this sort of fraud and Nazi-like propaganda is used in an economically-booming country. The masses will not feel it that much. The Dems in the US know that their Russia and now Ukraine hit pieces were and are based on fraud, but the masses do not feel it. Their economy and institutions are strong enough.

But when it is held in a near-failed State like Nigeria, it means only one thing; more economic, security comatose for the public. APC are strategically smart with propaganda, but they are inherently wicked towards the masses in Nigeria. We can claim that this was what PDP was known for in their early years but (1) The economy was farrrrr better and (2) APC promised changed (if I remember well) and not a return to the dark days of killings and violence.
We will continue to pray to God for Nigeria.
