Do you serve warrants in raids?

egbonnla:
All of us (Wailers and Zombies) should be worried about the recent recklessness and lack of respect for the rule of law on part of he executive. We should not allow sentiments to becloud our sense of reasoning. The Judiciary is an independent arm of government and the last hope of the common man. Granted some few judges may be corrupted but the constitution has provided ways of treating cases of corrupted judges. The executive should have reported such judges to National Judicial Committee. The judges can then be prosecuted by the police if they are found guilty of criminal acts by NJC.
If we allow the Executive to muzzled the Judiciary, the president may become a dictator who can do any thing and get away with it. Our collective freedom may be taken....

bejeiodus:
Do you understand the workings of democracy at all? When did it become the duty of the DSS to investigate financial crimes? Isn't that an usurpation of the roles of the EFCC? An ominous dark clouds have enveloped this country. I only pray it won't be too late before we all rise up to condemn what is evil regardless of our political affiliations.

Max24:

"Separation of powers" is a well-defined constitutional concept - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_powers - and the point is to prevent governments from degenerating into tyrannies. And yes, it does mean that one arm of government can't simply decide that it has the responsibility to unilaterally purge another, otherwise a slide into dictatorship would be almost inevitable.

omohayek:
I despise corruption as much as anyone, but there are good and bad ways of combating it; subverting the rule of law and undermining the independence of the judiciary is definitely not one of them. On what constitutional grounds can the DSS carry out an action such as this?

Even if these justices are each ten times as corrupt as Sani Abacha, I would think that the right way to handle the situation is by impeaching them, and having them tried by the appropriate NASS committees, not through the executive arm issuing orders to have them locked up. This looks to me to be a clear violation of the separation of powers. Of course, given how little regard most Nigerians have for such constitutional niceties, I fully expect loads of idiots to cheer on this action regardless.

Farmerforlife:
First of all, the verse is incorrectly interpreted. Whoever interpreted the word 'darb' as 'scourge' was being overly mischevious.

The dispensation is understood to have been given for extreme cases as the last option, and even then, it was disliked to have to resort to it. There is a severe restriction on how a husband may beat his wife, should the matter come to that; for example, it must not be severe, liable to leave marks, or humiliating, and the face must be avoided at all costs. The prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) himself never raised his hand to anyone, except enemy combatants in war.

You ask if earlier prophets permitted husbands to beat their wives. The answer to this is not known. There are just no records in the extant OT about how Abraham, Moses, David or any other prophet conducted their family affairs. Jesus was not a lawgiver, but endorsed the old laws, so we do not expect to see any law there. Add to that, the fact that no part of the NT is actually written by any diaciple or eyewitness of his, and the whole is of doubtful transmission and authorship in any event.

The fact remains that NO VERSE IN THE WHOLE BIBLE either prohibits wife beating, or attempts to keep it within restrictive boundaries. A Muslim would obviously be sinning if he beats his wife in a severe or humiliating manner, or on her face, or without first of all using the preferred options. A Christian or a Jew can beat his wife in any way, shape or form at any time he wishes, and there is no sin upon him, because the Bible never prohibited it or outlined what would be excessive when doing it.

genieluv:
Kwararafa was a kingdom that existed centuries ago, the greatest in Central Nigeria and among the greatest in current Nigeria.
Read about it if u dont know it!

Garnetto:
for real? just 18k..and you got 52k as get help?

VictorRomanov:
You still don't get what explains what? i know you wouldn't. you re too dumb to figure it out

by the way, i am not dragging your smallie with you. if you'd had time to read, you'll notice she's been mentioning me with pictures, even when she wasn't the one that was mentioned. i guess that's what connects you too (not minding your business).

One more thing. An advice from a person who knows: Never be a woman wrapper. You'll end up being friendzoned for life, while a real gee comes and picks her up. all these Jet Li defender stunts you're pulling online won't help ur life. Enough attention for you today.

SecretAgent:
Can you be clear how your friend lost his money, did he go against MMM rules and regulations. Because i just made a withdrawal (get help) on the 3rd of october 2016. I invested just #18000 and #52000 was paid into my bank account this week. All i can say for now is MMM is the real deal.

SeyiAyorinde:

No my dear, Igalas, Idomas and Igbirrras are originally from Kwararafa. Go and study history very well, it was not manufactured.
There are many proofs. Jukuns of Taraba state have many similarities in culture and language with idoma, Igala and Igbirra and the jukuns were the leaders of Kwararafa kingdom.
Have u ever been to Nasarawa state and related with the people there and their ethnic groups? Most of them there speak similar dialects and many like Alago, Agatu, Afo, Ekye are very much like Idoma in the way they sound. All these idomoid groups of languages came from Kwararafa and they are called APA people. The fulani jihad was what divided Kwararafa descendants so much and displaced and divided many of them.
Ebiras fled from Kwararafa area and first settled in Agatu in Benue and many Agatu people still classify themselves under Ebira and many of them claim Ebira ancestry, the ebiras who settled there gave rise to the Egbura (Egbirra opanada, Toto and Umaisha) people of Nasarawa state and when the Egbirras left there that was how they founded the other Egbirra settlements like Egbirra koto of FCT and Lokoja, Egbirra mozum of Bassa and finally the Egbirra tao of Kogi central that you know. Ebira etuno in Edo migrated from Tao land. All egbirras even down to their king know they came from kwararafa.

And pls, kwararafa is not part of the north. They are in Taraba state and culturally and geographically middlebelt.

Igalas are the ones who do not have wholly kwararafan origin although about half of igalas today claim kwararafa. I think this is because they were conquered and ruled by kwararafa for a long time and during this period, many kwararafan settlers came amongst them and even during the fall of kwararafa, many fleeing groups settled with igalas. The current Attah of igala proudly identifies with kwararafa.
No, kwararafa could never have claimed Okun, how could they? They don't claim anyone. The average jukun people don't have the time to claim anybody, rather it is other tribes that identify with their kingdom.

I am partly Idoma.
Are u Okun?

YonkijiSappo:
I am not Anebira. But I believe Ebiras migrated from somewhere n the North central from an area around Abuja to their present location predominantly below the confluence, and broke the long standing contact between a continuous Yoruba-Igala territory. Today I actually think Ebiras feel more comfortable wih Yorubas than any other tribe. Although many of them think Ebira being majority muslim make them closer to Hausa... that couldn't be further from the truth because Ebiraland was never conquered in a jihad, but rather became muslims on their own accord.
Also, Ebiras, Igalas and Idomas did not migrate from Kwararafa. That was just a legend to make the north central tribes feel more connected to the North than the south. If Okun was not already obviously Yoruba, I am sure the kwararafa lies would have also spread to them.
Are you Idoma? Many Idomas and Agatus are also in the Western states ooo... hope u know?
