Nigeria can literally crush the soul of anyone that doesn't have a strong spiritual foundation. For many years Adams Oshiomhole was running around Nigeria as labor activist, bla bla bla. He basically scammed everyone! People like him without any moral scruples are the reason Nigeria is such a dangerous place.

Is there anywhere in the world where you can find people more arrogant and brave in their ignorance than Nigerians, especially the politicians? The Commissioner here is trying to prove that he's not economically illiterate. But it's the exact point he proves - that despite his false bravado, he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about.

Farotimi says the Nigerian justice system is criminal in outlook. No objective person who's familiar with Nigeria can argue with that. With every desperate action they launch to prove that it's not true - such as this black market injunction - they only confirm Farotimi's claim that the system is criminal.

"Deformation" of what? Why are you lot so bold in advertising the cruel miseducation of Nigerian youths? "Deformation" of character is not a crime all over the world. There's no crime like that anywhere in the world!

Thundafireseun:
Are you aware that the crime was published in a detailed book , and the book is being sold all over the world…. So if Afe Babalola chooses he could decide to go to a court in Abuja or a court in Sokoto….

Deformation of character is a criminal offence any where in the world it’s not a grievance Oga …. And we all use police to to arrest a criminal that has refused to honour police invitation several times

Continue. Nigerians always defend the indefensible until it is their turn to eat the breakfast.

Kewtt:
Why did Farotimi refuse court summons to Ekiti? Why did Farotimi wait for a court warrant for his arrest to be executed?
Why was Farotimi dodging for nine days until he was finally apprehended?
Was he brutalized? No!
Farotimi is not above the law!!

You people should make up your minds whether it is democracy or dictatorship you want. Nobody says anybody is immune from the legitimate exercise of law enforcement authority. What's concerning is using the police to settle civil grievances. Why was Dele Farotimi bundled to Ekiti state when not a single one of the so-called "crimes" was committed in Ekiti state?

Thundafireseun:
What makes you feel Dele was abducted??

Is he above the Law?

He can be arrested like any other criminal

Stop distributing your ignorance. He said so because even non-lawyers - let alone a whole SAN - know that defamation is a civil violation. But just to prove/confirm Farotimi's overall assessment that Nigeria's justice system is run by criminals, they had to smuggle "criminal" behind defamation to give the police the pretext to abduct him.

Thundafireseun:
Long but interesting read…

My major concern is why does Peter Obi feel that the police there was gross miss use of power by the police??

Dele should Defend himself…. Simple and short

What do you think will happen if the EFCC were to be transparent with all information about the case, including who the major actors are, while the criminal case is still pending in court? The heavens will fall, right? Why do you folks like advertising your daftness and mumuness for the entire world to behold?

PressMyButton:
Is Sowore daft or something?.. The case is in court already, it is in public space, media are free to go to court where the suit is ongoing and obtain the information. EFCC previously got an interim forfeiture before the final forfeiture last week. Why wait for EFCC to disclose the names when you can obtain the information in court yourself. How can EFCC disclose a name when the criminal case is still ongoing.

So, Dele Farotimi wrote in his book that the Nigerian justice system is criminal and the response from those he mentioned in the crminalization process is to prove him right! Who will tell a whole SAN as they say in Nigeria that defamation is not a crime?

No, it's not this end time we're talking about. The real end time, the one that should bother you, Adeboye is that Nigerians are hungry and Tinubu is gallivanting around the globe, buying bulletproof limos, airplanes, and yacht!

This isn't about any one person or individual or politician. It isn't about Buhari or Tinubu or Jonathan or OBJ. It's about a section of the country picking up arms any time an idea to address one of the country's myriad injustices is on the table. Of course, we know that the politicians are all useless. But sometimes they come up of with a policy idea that's worth giving a chance. So-called Northern Nigeria always says no, including ideas that could benefit them in the long run.

anonimi:
Glory to God for the excellent thinking, reflection, introspection, first-order commitments, principles and sense of justice of T-Pain that made him package his 2011 CPC expired leader as the change messiah of APC four years later.

Don't we now know that it was all a scam and Buhari is the master of shege. Shege that ebilokan is continuing to the extra level of wailing hunger and starvation.

You can't shame the unshameable! This so-called Northern Nigeria are shameless. What you're saying is too much, too deep for them. They live on the surface of things - no thinking, no reflection, no introspection, no first order commitments, no principles, no sense of justice. The only thing they know their entire lives is cheating. Beer is bad, let's break all beer bottles. But they're not ashamed to die on top the VAT from beer! There's not a single idea intended to move Nigeria towards progress that Northern Nigeria hasn't opposed! None.

omowolewa:
North would be the ultimate beneficiary of this Tax Laws

Before selling you Farm Product outside your State, put your VAT and make sure ist remitted in your state.



True, they aren't VATable but they can find a way around it. That's where the processing comes in.

You don't VAT my Cocoa but not beverages and Chocolate

My Cotton is not VATABLE but the Cloth is VATable. I will process my cotton to Textile

My Groundnut is not VATable but the vegetable oil is VATable

My Tomatoes are not VATable but the Tomatoe paste are VATable. I would start Tomatoe processing company.

What happens to Transfer Procing agreement with processing companies in other states, that is direct share of profits. Don't sell to Companies if they don't agree to your state being part of the value chain.

If Agricultural and Mineral resources is what the North has, they have to build their economy around it.

It's not in Nigeria interest to underdevelop anywhere in it

If you live by the Bible screed of forgiving 77X7 times, you'll die for nothing.

If OBJ had behaved himself, we wouldn't have a sick Yar'Adua, a clueless Jonathan, a lazy & incompetent Buhari, and certainly not a fantastically corrupt Tilunmbu.

Come to think of it, Olaiya Igwe went to the Bar Beach naked. Lo and behold, Tinubu won. May be, he needs to go a second time with his wife and children. They should all go back there naked. That might just be the miracle Nigeria needs.

Welcome, bro. But what kept you this long? I gave up on Nigeria in 1993 once Abiola's electoral victory was annulled. To date, Babangida hasn't offered a single convincing reason why that annulment happened.

mrvitalis:
I tell people Nigerians are generally OK with how the country is... Never mercy for anyone of them... If you have the opportunity Milk them dry

What do you think would happen if Tinubu attempt to legalize gay marriage - exactly my point protest he would be forced to change it right... So why don't we have same reaction when he implements bad policy?

There Is a loud minorities of fairly educated and exposed Nigerians online that want things to change because they have seen better and want better... They are not more that 5% of Nigerians... The rest of the population are actually ok, they complain because those minorities who they respect and get help from complain too

To the average Nigerian politics is like a sports like football fanship, they are happy when the party they support wins.... Nigerians have not been able to relate voting people and their economic day to day realities ..

Majority believes when its your time you would blow or when God remember you you would blow... Useless mindset

I have given up on Nigeria completely.. I won't ever vote again no matter who contest....

There's an Igbo adage about a hen threatening to destroy her owner's compound with shit. What the hen didn't know was that the more she dropped shit, the more she set her own rump on fire!

This is the exact state of the Igbos in Nigeria today.

I understand he has a so-called first son who saw in his death only an opportunity to cash out. And it seems he's still at it.

Ebenezer2021:
Over 3 years mehn

Exactly, heard it was family crisis

While you're all at it, let's not forget that Wayas died exactly four years ago!

Mr. Wise, I don't live in your sh**hole. It means I'm not coming to Aba which still is a slum and a den of criminals. I live in a part of the world where I happily pay my taxes, enjoy free healthcare, enjoy constant water supply & 24/7 electricity. I don't have to leave my house ever to live a meaningful life. I knew to escape from that hell scape called Nigeria because of ignoramuses like you & Mascot.

Samuel8284:
mumu guy come to ABA and verify, stop typing thrash, he is doing well, and aba people are proud of his good work

Are they not always doing well, wise guy? Yet everyone is complaining. It seems you all deserve everything you're getting in that den of ignoramuses you call Nigeria. I'm not coming to Aba. I've seen enough. Continue enjoying all the goodies the Mascot is providing, including a few slaps, kicks & punches whenever he feels like it.

Samuel8284:
mumu guy come to ABA and verify, stop typing thrash, he is doing well, and aba people are proud of his good work

Since 1960 Nigeria has been on this perpetual spinning motion, barber chair kind of politics with absolutely nothing, other than regression, to show for it. This one was somewhere in Abuja quietly enjoying his loot until he took the impunity way too high. He's now on a never ending cycle of damage control. Take my word for it. This is all sizzle. There isn't any steak!

I wonder what exactly is the sin of Nigerians to be saddled with clowns like these people. Please whatever you do in life avoid shameless people at all costs.

I just hope Buhari's cows have now increased in number from 150 which he claimed they were in 2007, 2011, 2015, and until he eventually used terror and violence to become the Nigerian president in 2019.

You will fail miserably if your goal is to find any other collection of human beings that are more toxic than Nigerians. All you need for proof is to just scroll through the comments on any story on Nairaland. It'll hit you immediately.

Sonnobax15:
Good day my fellow Nairalanders......Hope y'all are having a nice day + flexing on the harmattan season that's already gotten it's aroma allover the place?

So, recently,I was added to my primary school WhatsApp group......It's been over 20 years since we left primary school and it was indeed a good time to have a flashback of the memories of how and who we used to be back then as kids,under the same roof of the same classroom as classmates....

The reason for the reunion came about as a result of the fact that one of our classmates was about getting married....It was indeed a fun-filled moment as we were already vibing and reminiscing on our past

Suddenly,I began to notice how some guys were showcasing and boasting about how they have made it in life.....Some were even posting pictures of their expensive cars and beautiful houses....I was really happy for them,at least for seeing those whom I grew up with making it to the top...It actually gave me joy as I hoped to make it like them someday too


But then again,what really killed my joy was when one of them started to call out the names of those who used to take from the first to third positions in class ...The annoying part was that he sent it via voice note and was like mocking us about not being successful yet like those of them who were considered as the dullards back then in school.....I felt really pissed off😡. The fun was brutally murdered instantly and I began to notice how many people started to exit the group one after the other 😔. I wasn't left out cuz I also made sure I dusted my shoes and left too before they would post the pictures of me riding my keke ...what was supposed to bring us together only ended up disintegrating us further and made us felt like we were losers . As a matter of fact, I've vowed never to be a member of any WhatsApp group from henceforth . Cuz it seems these guys are only out to add more pains to people's depression

Have anyone experienced this kind of scenario before?

Another slowpoke just got rigged into office. What a waste of space!

Newlymarried:
The governor of Edo state, Monday Okpebholo, says a day after winning the September 21 governorship election, he found a d3ad bat on his bed.



He said he saw the dead bat while awaiting the results of the poll.

Okpebholo stated this during a praise concert to celebrate his inauguration as the sixth civilian governor of the state,

They're lying again. It's not a money problem. It's a corruption problem. How much did Obasanjo squander away with nothing to show for it? When are they ever going to dismantle that nonsense they call the national grid? Let them start there first!

I'm not sure you're ever going to find a more deceitful, slippery, and dishonest collection of humans than these so-called Nigerian pastors. And to imagine that millions count on them for spiritual direction? They no longer can justify their previous teachings on tithing based on the Bible, they've pivoted to something entirely outworldly. They've abandoned the 10 percent. They're coming for the 90 percent! Such sleaze-balls!

If this is your sense of logic, why do you foam in the mouth about what the fulani are doing to you in Nigeria everyday? You should be beating their drums and amplifying their bigotry as well, seeing as some of your own people sold, and still sell, you down the river?

I see you're too far gone and unsaveable.

Bye!

blueAgent:
Sighs...

Useless rant as usual.

Go and check who is killing blacks most, if not blacks?
Who sold his brothers to Europeans as slaves if not blacks?
Who steals his country blind and sends its abroad if not blacks?

Clown
Your inability to see the truth shows you are naive and ingnorant.

People like you are the reason black people are most self-hating, self-loathing humans on earth because you provide help and comfort to those who abuse you. Trump doesn't even think you deserve to live as a black person because he's a white supremacist. What do you think would happen if he had the keys to that heaven I'm sure you aspire to? You think he'll let you in? Do you ignorant Bible-clutching, hypocritical menaces have any shame at all?

blueAgent:
He was referring to guys like you, and that's why you guys did not want him to win.

ZOMBIES

Who's in the market with you? There's a reason Trump says you live in a sh*thole. Go figure.

blueAgent:
Zombie.
HOW Market?



Son of Disgrace

Nigerian politics is turn by turn. The Okpebholo guy will also collect. But if this is his way of starting his tenure, which is stolen, if we're being honest, you'll have to pity the people of Edo state. He's got nothing to offer.
