Why 2020...it has been like that since 2012...am a lérè boy BTW.

It's high time someone takes the hisbah establishment to court and argue till the supreme Court for their powers to be spelt out, their authority is to Muslims not to non Muslims, they have no right to give any for of any directive to non Muslims in kano state.

If cool FM want to communicate or advertise to non Muslim about black Friday its non of their business.

If am the management of the station I will write a petition to the IG, copy the Governor and the AG of the state, stating if anything should happen to me, my staffs and my assets in the state, they should hold the commander of hisbah responsible.

StubbornWife:
Nowhere in the Quran is it written that Friday is a holy day or day of rest - because the quranic Allah didn't need to rest after creating his world.. Therefore he didn't command his followers to observe any day of rest.

Observing Friday or asking for a work-free friday is an innovation and imitation of the people of the Book (Christians). Meanwhile, the NBC is clear on who regulates the media, though it isn't clear on who has control of violent mobs that can invade establishments and leave mayhem in their wake - over an issue they don't even understand

you sound like someone I know.. This is exactly how she will quote her words... Stay blessed.

GBTYO:
I said the deal was already concluded in 2015 between Obama and Buhari.

By 2016 the deal was ratified by Trump after it was pushed to his table by Obama holdovers.

Trump in keeping with MAGA, approved it since on paper it was a sweet deal for a US military contractor which Trump campaigned on promoting.

oga that's a big lie for your information it was Jonathan that first applied for tuscano from Obama, the Congress blocked it, that's why Jonathan looked towards Russia for the helicopters and China for drones, Trump signed it for Buhari administratoin please am not a baby in Nigerian Politics this is just few years ago, don't turn history on its head by lying, no deal was concluded under Obama with Buhari.

If Obama wanted he could have signed an executive order for Buhari or Jonathan he didn't so can you conclude a deal without payment?

GBTYO:
At least you admitted that the deal began under Obama but was rejected by the US Senate.

Case Closed.

but you said Obama was getting it for his friend meanwhile it was trump who made the deal... Let's face the issue at hand. 9 billion naira for something we already paid for?

GBTYO:
Idiot, the Super Tucano is manufactured by Brazilian Embraer Aircrafts

This is one click away.

You idiotic goat of a president went through a Pentagon contractor linked to the Clinton and Obama foundations.


This same company was granted the contract to supply Super Tucano aircrafts to Afghan forces by the Obama administration.

This is an elaborate compensation package to the Obama's or else what stopped your idiotic president from sourcing the aircraft directly from Brazil at much more lower cost?

Goat

stop saying rubbish oga, we all agree this Government is messed up, but when you guys come up with conspiracy theories, it makes all of us stupid and unobjective, Nigerian Government did not pay a dime to the US government under Obama, because Congress did not approve the sale, they paid after Trump signed an executive order approving the sale, so please stop lying up and down the Internet and be objective, PMB administration is incompent agreed but say things as it is and stop putting lies up and down the thread, how can Nigeria Government pay the US government when the US government didn't approve the transaction? How?

Your lord and saviour Trump approved it for his defense contractor friends.

NNEWIsuper:
What he's telling you is the truth.. Oil was first discovered in alaigbo

Ever8090:

moneyshop:
Even though I don't study petroleum Engineer, I one time read that crude oil is passing over.

Our government should stop dependable on oil products, solar energy is taking over oil.

Probably, I have experience little here, I'm actually a First classes graduation of English Languwage, so I may not known so much about oil

I am right probably

wow... First class graduation of English language.... Nairaland.com people won't kill someone with their grammar.... Hilarious.

Àwọn oponu.... Do this guys know they can't actually shut down the Internet?

Seun, can you please buy yours mods brighter grammar?

Starzo:
I'm not trying to be tribalistic cuz I no even dey follow up with that kind stuff. I only typed what I beleived to be true. Most yorubas we're actually reigning insults on her cuz she rejected their son laycon.
I've spoken my mind
anything u like u talk. It does not change what is and what is not.

who was reigning curse on her, for what? Kindly show me some, any human in his or her right sense knows that the lady has right to any man he has, I bet you Yorubas are ashamed of the laycon guy conduct with the lady, most people liked him for his other qualities, music, grass to grace, underrated person in the house, any Yoruba who hates Erica because of laycon is a sisi... Yorùbás don't have time for such.

Starzo:
many Yoruba people no go like this news
dem just hate the girl since she reject their favoured son laycon

please grow up.. Don't bring up tribe issues to this thing, am not a laycon fine either... Take your tribalistic ass to the cave you came from. Nonsense.. Everything is always about we against them in your world.

What is wrong with this people using unscrupulous ppl to promote their drinks, this ambassador thing, who told them it works? Using all Tom dick and Harry as ambassador does it reflect on their sales? Yes some individuals can influence but not everyone, this one that got drunk and was kicked out of a game you are using her as an ambassador? Who signed out for this crap at the company?

This government or whoever is calling the shots is sitting on a keg of gun powder, the national assembly has to, as an immediate effect enact a law to name who ever gives an order from the president to the last officer, be it in the army, police, dss, efcc, civil service, custom, immigration.
The era of order from above must stop.. We are no longer in a military regime.. It must stop... Anyone that gives a order must not be in hiding, he or she must explain why he or she gave to order to the Nigerian populace... Which is a part of government. Its called government by the people for the people for a reason.. Not government by some people for the people... Who is giving the orders... Let him or she come out or which organisation?

Government has said they are on deck.. Why do some people in same government act more than the bereaved? Always overzealous to show they are working.

Seun... Please caution your mods, if you too bigger than nairaland.com... Please sell it... Your Mods a going haywire this Days, this is pure misinformation... Why should this be on the front page? Why?

This guy is just the best governor around

DerideGull:
The bolded should be a homework for you. By the way, how many mushroom parties from Owo and Ibadan fielded candidates in Benin, Lagos and even Asaba during 1951 regional election? You need to reconcile yourself as shown in red. In addition, if you had read my post without being overwhelmed by tribal impediments, you would have noticed the mention of regional and national elections. Please read books and stop loading up on craps from wiki.

oga.. No where in your post did you state the election as regional, you said national, if ag members in benin contested for election does that makes AG to have a national spread? You ve been caught pants down stop shifting the goal post, or you don't know the difference between national and regional again, claiming the smaller parties were not allowed to contest had to contest under another party manifesto is a very big lie you ought to be ashamed of, homework ko homeplay ni.

Tinubu should never be Nigeria president or else we are in trouble, am a Yoruba man, and not a PDP supporter.

DerideGull:
Why would I inject Awo onto a discussion which is centered on Azikiwe and Macaulay? This is one of the problems which had inflicted most Africans. They tend to indulge in hero worship. Please enjoy your Awo,

why wont you when the topic of the thread is about Awolowo, did you read the topic of the thread before commenting at all? If you can comprehend English language very well you will know the reason why i call up the name...

Thank you we enjoying our Hero Awolowo... Sorry you have none to enjoy... Its not my fault or Yoruba peoples fault, enjoy your non hero too.

DerideGull:
This is one of the reasons I hate anything about Nigeria. Folks from certain section of country tend to live in falsehood. Adegoke Adelabu was IPP as do other members. However, the mushroom parties without national status or coverage were not meant or allowed to contest regional or national elections. To do so, they must run under the umbrella or manifesto of a party with national status. There was no alliance between any member of IPP and Action Group or NCNC. And your attempt to insinuate that an individual from a political party can form or formed "alliance " with another party is very idiotic. The five from Ibadan were not the only persons to cross carpet. They did not cross carpet to retain the identity of their original party because it was irrelevant in the substance of polity before the election.

an idiotic person will always manifest him or her self in public fora no matter what, I won't stoop so low to your level to use a gutter language for your personality even tho its anonymous.

Now back to the topic at hand.

Let me school you.

No 1,How do you determine a party with National coverage the First national Election in Nigeria Parliamentary elections were held in Nigeria on 12 December 1959. The result was a victory for the Northern People's Congress, which won 134 of the 312 seats in the House of Representatives, despite the Action Group winning more votes.[1] It formed a coalition with five other parties and two independents, holding a total of 148 seats.

No2 the first general election in Nigeria was in May 1919, when the Townships Ordinance gave the right to vote for three members of Lagos Town Council to some men.

No 3, the 1951 election was in western house of assembly, it was not national, no party had national coverage then, stop lying, NPC did not win a single seat in the south, neither did AG win any seat in the north, so why were they allowed to contest which according to your word only parties with national coverage were allowed to contest and others have to be under "parties" with national coverage. Are you clever than half?
Tell me what make a party to be consider to have a national coverage in 1951?what are the requirements? Seat won? When? How?

Oga stop lying let it rest you ve been exposed.

Ngorbungor:
Those countries you mentioned bounced back just because they have their destiny in there own hands after the wars and we the igbos did not, we were never allowed, but the Yoruba and Hausa that never experienced war, should have be in the fore front of industrial development, educational development, and infrastructure development, but they are still Rubin shoulders with Igbos that was reduced to nothing from 1967 till now?

The Onitsha you are seeing today was levelled to ground zero, during the war, likewise Owerri and Enugu, but go there today you will never believe what they have become after the war. Only if we won the war, I don't think you guys will ever see our back in terms of industrial development etc.

Onitsha was never reduced to ground zero... Thats a lie, #facts nor enugu #fact 2,awka got the most of the hit, there are after war pictures in the archives, irrefutable.

The Yoruba that 100 years war in 1800s with guns, did that ever happened in igboland?

Ngorbungor:
Did you say we should go and develop? What the op is simply saying is with all your stolen wealth, free education and sophistication we the igbos are still very much represented,
Just imagine you in a football match, down with 0 - 10 or more and halfway into the match you equalised, even surpassed your opponent, this is not a joke, it's a miracle and God's hand is definitely in it.

You people are not ashame, instead of asking your leaders simple questions of what went wrong, how did they mismanaged this golden opportunity that would have translated into massive industrial development, you are here flexing muscle with people that was ravaged with 3years war, lost everything, mean everything, is this not a shame

Total shame!!!

God have shame you people, and will continue to do so till you people stop and look back and asked where you got it wrong,

In truth and all honesty, you people too control of Nigeria after the war, I don't care who sign the indiginzation stuff or who idea it was, all I know is that some people hijacked the system and share all the spoils of war to them selves and the result is what we are seeing today, and some stu,.I'd people are defending them with impunity and recklessness

God will surely deal with you people.

your assertion is so myopic, japan, Germany, South Korea had carpet bombings during the 2nd world war, they turn their economy around under 20 years had the fastest economy growth ever in their history, the eat developing after the war is not a big deal, its what we all prayed for and thank God it happened.

Point is Yoruba did not promulgate the decree in question, you guys should just stop lying.

proeast:
Lies and more lies, but I will always counter you guys with verifiable facts.

You claimed no company was taken over by any tribe but that's fallacy, lots of foreign companies were actually taken over by the Yorubas under the guise of Indignization decree.

Now look at the following attachments and see man's inhumanity to fellow man in full glare.

As you can see, over 1000 foreign companies were affected!

Now look at the second attachment and see the stringent conditions that would totally ensure that Igbos never got involved especially bearing in mind that their bank accounts were confiscated and the maximum each person got regardless of whatever thousands or millions he had prior to the war, was a measly 20 pounds!

stop lying please, will you be comfortable lying to your children? Can please tell me anywhere in the world before the advent of computer where bank records were lost and the bank came to pay the customers claims without documentation but word of mouth, what will be paid is insurance which was the 20 pounds, ww still have the entity that will do the same if anybank fails now, NDIC, if you like have 1billion in first bank, if the bank fails today you only getting 500k.stop lying, Bible says its a sin.

DerideGull:
Are you okay? Do 1957 and 1958 precede 1951? Adegoke Adelabu was the leader of NCNC in western region of Nigeria and would have been the leader of government in the region if the turncoats did not cross carpet. Zik was national leader of NCNC and not leader of NCNC in western region and eastern region.

it is you that is not understanding English grammar very well, let me prove to you that am ok.
No try and read slowly so that you can comprehend, maybe that will help you.

The event you quoting calling "cross carpeting" happened in 1951,adelabu was not the leader of NCNC both nationally and regionally, in fact he was not a member of NCNC how could he have been the leader then when he was not a member, he was in Ibadan people's party, IPP.
He was the only IPP legislator that did form alliance with the Action Group, he formed his Alliance with NCNC, out of six of them.
In 1954 he joined NCNC officially, contested for a seat at the national level house of representatives, he won, he resigned his seat in 1956 to contest in the western region assembly he won his seat his party lost, he became the leader of opposition in the western assembly.
The man died in 1958.

You are the one that quoted 1951 in your earlier post, there is no way you can modify it, internet never forget, its there, go and read what you posted, and i point it out to you that the elections you were referring to was not national, it was a regional election in 1951,I also pointed out to you when he became NCNC opposition leader which was not in 1951 as you earlier claimed.

DerideGull:
Where in post did I insinuate that NYM belongs to Zik. Zik's NYM defeated Macaulay's NNDP does not mean that either Zik or Macaulay owned any of the parties. It is funny you listed H.O Devis as founder when in fact, H.O. Davis joined NYM is 1938 when he returned from UK. NYM received national status when Zik joined in 1937 and went ahead to the trash NNDP in 1938 Lagos Legislative Council election.

Do you see the way you just rewrite history just to suit your fable?

Why will you say "Zik's NYM"? Why not Awo's NYM? Or you not aware Awolowo was also a NYM member? For your information Zik was never the founder not one of the founders nor was he ever the leader of NYM that defeated the NNDP at any point in time in history #facts.
Whats the meaning of NYM receiving national status when Zik joined the party, NYM already had their best days before he came into the party, stop turning history upside-down.

Descendants of demonic thieves and lootocrats. You monkeys hate to hear the truth but thanks to ever dogged Proeast. We will continue to expose the satanic conspirators from the land of fallen lucifer. No peace for demonic abobaku ritual killers. Hinsha hAllah hAmin

Kindly state just one truth Proeast said in his opening post. Liars.
