They lied to the that crypto including Biance is responsible for the economy they destroyed. Got their so called executive arrested. Now they don do arrangee escape for am. Hope the zombies of this government can see how their head is being played like ping pong?
You are forgetting that one of the two detained is still in the DSS custody. He is the one that will pay for the crime of his escaped friend. Beginning with the removal of his previous privileges.

With him in their hands, Binance will still pay for undermining and sabotaging Nigeria financial economy.

Bro, I have been around situations like this and it happen to all rich men whom the society recognize. Even those who are not employed will be working for you without asking them. Although that is different from this issue.

The drummer we are talking about is his worker. Did wasiu pay him according to their agreement? If yes, Wasiu has no issue.

Also, I want to advice you. If you become rich in life ( I don’t know your status sha), don’t ever take someone out of poverty to riches. You will regret such action.
This is an unfortunate statement from a person who must be highly greedy and selfish. Please don't take to this devilish advice.

When you are rich, please help others to become rich too, if it is within your capacity, and God will reward you exceedingly.

This are movies some hungry ppl with smelly armpits will be telling u is Asaba movie simply because they are not uploaded on Netflix many actresses ran to Cinema calling Ruth Kadiri local for producing YouTube movies but Ruth Kadiri was cashing out big time building stars like ,Chidi Dike ,Eronini Osinachi Genevieve Edwin Ukatu Stephanie Bassey etc while Uche Mbunabo introduced Joshua Clinton Ezewele Chioma Uduak and many others today all those Cinema actresses are back opening YouTube channels producing YouTube Nigeria movies I had Ruth Kadiri even unfollowed Eronini Osinachi for staring iin a movie way to my heart alongside Angel Unigwe for Omoni Oboli the now Ruth Kadiri rival in YouTube Nigeria movies last year over 650 movies was uploaded on YouTube I m curently on 1TB aitel subscription but the truth is that if I spend 10hr watching Nigeria movies 9hr goese for YouTube Nigeria movies because of lack of vitalities on Netflix like many movies there dont have repeat value for me , movies like Wedding Party 1&2, Lion Heart ,Blood Sister,Blood Versel, Living in Bondage Remake,and Shanty Town this are the only Netfix movies I have repeatedly watched sometimes I have to switch from new movies to them again ,,,,,for now give me Nigeria YouTube movies keep Netflix
Those urchins once u mentioned any actor or actress not doing Netflix they tag him or her Asaba or upper Iweka actor but these are the actors and actresses known everywhere and making most money and fame they also forgot 95% of today nollywood legends also stared in those homevideos before going to Netflix and still doing YouTube movies

So this actors and actresses doing all the 17m+views are local ? With this high views producers of some of those YouTube movies are making far bigger money than many Cinema movies producers considering amount required to promote cinema movies and the producers being entitled to only 35% of the movies groosing, Netflix have there audiences YouTube Nigeria movies have there's but the truth is that YouTube Nigeria movies still hold over 85% of Nollywood fanbase there actors and actresses are more popular everywhere more jobs more money I don't know why some hungry ppl will keep tagging them Asaba actors same mistake

With 17m+views under 1month imagine amount Uche Mbunabo made from Treasure in the Sky without noise or publicity ,,, all this producers actors and actresses are Asaba actors to those hungry ppl

No problem. Maybe you should suggest to YouTube to start a yearly Movie Award program for all movies on its platform to capture those you listed here.

But for now AMVCA only spread its net to promote and reward the celluloid and cable films produced within a year within Africa, and they should be commended for it.

LOVEALAIGBO:
This sudden heightened troubles LP is witnessing in the past one to two weeks is the manifestation of a script being played out by the Tinubu/APC camp! The short-term objective is to ensure Olumide Akpata and LP do not win in the upcoming Edo state gubernatorial elections....and the long-term objective is to try and destabilise the party so Peter Obis' chances in the next presidential election, should he wish to contest, are drastically weakened!

Make no mistake about it, what we're witnessing is the voice of Jacob and the hand of Esau! The trace of those teleguiding this engineered turmoil in the LP will ultimately lead back to the Tinubu/APC political machinery! Their emilokan political philosophy is built on the belief that bribery and the lure of financial gain can buy the conscience of almost anyone in the impoverished Nigeria of today!
Oga, go rest. Tinubu here, Tinubu there, so him don become demigod.

The decampees are leaving LP to PDP, so is Tinubu in PDP? Is APC ruling in Edo State, or is Ighodalo that they are supporting an APC candidate?

Please next time when making assertion, make sure it is logical.

HealthRe: Please Share Your Experience With PCOS And Pregnancy. by membranus: 1:38pm On Mar 24, 2024
o123456789:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine system disorder among women of reproductive age. Women with PCOS may have enlarged ovaries that contain small collections of Fluid — called follicles — located in each ovary as seen during an ultrasound exam.

Infrequent or prolonged menstrual periods, excess hair growth, Acne, and Obesity can all occur in women with polycystic ovary syndrome. In adolescents, infrequent or absent menstruation may raise suspicion for the condition.

The exact cause of polycystic ovary syndrome is unknown. Early diagnosis and treatment along with weight loss may reduce the risk of long-term complications, such as Type 2 diabetes and Heart disease.
Thanks.

You Igbos didn't even have to vote for him to make this happen. Remember the Yorubas did not even vote for Obasanjo in 1998 yet he became a president. Soludo only needs to keep doing what he is doing and then choose a good political platform to chase his dream, and presto, he is in.

Badmashiii:
Truly a leader surrounded by Trojan horses and frenemies won't last long on his throne.

Who could be more trustworthy than your blood? Unfortunately that is not always the case.

If you're familiar wih the game of power and you've read history of past rulers, you must know one or two instances where sons plan the murder of their father to take over his place or brothers planning each other downfall to grab more power.

Truly the game of power is not for the weak.

At the end of the day no strategy is danger free. You need to pray for more guidance and wisdom from your maker and also sharpen your wits and Machiavellian tactics.
Any Machiavellian tactic is only deployed when you are a life-long ruler of a nation state or an organisation, and not in democratic setting which is terminal. Democracy has its own principles, ethos and ethics guiding it. Anything outside these is pure nepotism.
PoliticsRe: Governor Uzodimma Appoints Brother As Imo State Deputy Chief Of Staff by membranus: 10:43am On Mar 23, 2024
Not a new thing among Nigerian leaders.

In Ondo State, Agagu, the deceased governor, appointed his own brother as his Chief of State throughout his tenure. The immediate past governor of the same state, appointed his own son as a senior government official monitoring government contracts throughout the state.

So these are ones of the many examples across the country. Nepotism is the order of the day.

If I call you a clown and an slowpoke, it'll be an understatement.

I'm sure you're from that tribe who ran Helter skelter when they were attacked by a bunch of Dahomey women🤣🤣🤣

Oya let me school you.

Ojukwu fought a war for the emancipation of his people. what makes this even more amazing is that he wasn't a military man but he was able to organize and train men into soldiers, acquire weapons and ammo, setup logistics and C&C, built airfields and supply lines, did R&grin ALL DURING WARTIME!
Countries prepare for war during peacetime but this man did it with the federal soldiers at his doorstep, against a standing army, navy and air force who were supported by 8 abi 9 other countries AND he dealt with them, wiping out entire battalions at a time.
The federal army had to resort to preventing access of food and relief materials into the Biafran side as a strategy. Starving women and children is what cowards do. That's what the federal army did because they saw, even with all their might, they couldn't face these people one-on-one 😃. Ojukwu had to give up the fight when he saw this. Without that blockage, these two regions won't be together by now.

Go figure.

As for MNK, the only reason he's still in jail is because he chose not to accept the bribes and terms & conditions given him by the government. Despite all, he still stands for eat he believes in.

Now, these a real men, not some spineless Ola9Ja23 who thinks life starts and ends in picking pockets at idumota
Please tell us another story, your silly excuses for your people's failure are too stale.

Is that why most the brigades that defeated the ragtag Biafran army were led by the Yorubas like Alabi Isama, Benjamin Adekunle, Segun Obasanjo and Akinrinola. Even after Ojukwu have skedaddled to IVC, your Effiong surrendered to Obasanjo, a Yoruba man.

Yet to you Yorubas are cowards, while we are conquering the world in all strata of global endeavours.

PoliticsThe Odi Massacre: An Historical Throwback by membranus(op): 6:54pm On Mar 21, 2024
THE ODI MASSACRE

On November 4th, 1999….

An armed gang killed 7 policemen in the community of Odi, Bayelsa State. Few days later they killed 5 more policemen.

President Obasanjo immediately wrote the excerpt below to the Governor of Bayelsa state Diepreye Alamieyeseigha giving him 2 weeks to fish out the members of the gang & arraign them
in a criminal court.

Many may not know but the gang that killed those policemen were used by the Governor & his party (PDP) during democratic elections in February 1999 to commit illegalities and Obasanjo already knew this.

The Problem was that Alamieyeseigha and the powers that be left them to run riot in various villages, towns and communities in Bayelsa.

After the two week ultimatum, the Governor couldn’t seem to arrest a known criminal & political thug who he used during his elections in February 1999.

So Obasanjo sent the Minister of Police Affairs, Major-General David Jemibewon (rtd.) and Senate President, Dr. Chuba Okadigbo to speak to Gov Alamieyeseigha.

He kept telling the same story but as they pressed the Governor harder, he gave up one name…

- Ken Niweigha aka Daddy Ken

Ken Niweigha (Pictured Below) was said to be many things

-a gang leader
- a career militant
- a highway robber
- a renown cultist
- a kidnapper
- a sea pirate on Nigerian waters.

Some say Ken was part of The Supreme Egbesu aka Egbesu Boys & The Asawana Boys both affiliated with the IYC - The Ijaw Youth Council.

Here -

Ken was also said to be the son of a Police Officer who chased away his father’s wives & used their house as a Command Center for his criminal activities.

For his role in the election rigging, Ken Niweigha was to be compensated but he got used and dumped. With the guns and reputation he had, he began his reign of terror on Yenagoa and other communities.

Obasanjo knew all of these.

Ken’s reign lasted from the elections in February 1999 until September 1999 when a Police Area Commander in Yenagoa, Mr. Thomas Jokotola, CSP, led an operation to dislodge Ken and his gang from their ‘Command Center’ and put an end to his reign of terror.

Jokotola succeeded killing & arresting many of Ken’s associates especially in the ‘Black Market’ area of Yenagoa but as Ken’s gang escaped they met soldiers at Habour Road, Yenegoa & killed all the soldiers.

Two months after that, on November 4th 1999, CSP Thomas Jokotola entered Odi with 6 other policemen on a special operation.

Ken and his Gang ambushed CSP Jokotola and his men.

In the end, all 7 policemen were MURDERED in Odi by Ken and his Asawana boys.

Their names are…

1. CSP Thomas Jokotola - Osun
2. DSP George Nwine - Rivers
3. St. Emmanuel Bako - Bauchi
4. CPL Ayuba Silas - Kaduna
5. PC Shaibu Zamani - Kaduna
6. CPL Elias Bitrus - Borno
7. CPL Robinson Obazee - Edo

And as earlier stated Obasanjo stepped in and gave the Governor 2 weeks to get things under control

4 days later in Kaiama, Bayelsa on Monday November 8, 1999 to be exact, 3 more Policemen were killed by some people in Odi

Their names…

1. Sgt. Alhaji Atabor - Kogi
2. PC Stephen Abu - Cross-Rivers
3. PC Umoh Ukbo - Cross-Rivers

After the 2 weeks given to the Governor expired on 18th, Obasanjo swung into action…

First He declared a state of emergency in Bayelsa.

Then drafted his Minister of Defence General TY Danjuma to send in Lieutenant Colonel Agbabiaka & 300 soldiers to Odi under the command of ECOMOG War Hero & hyper-efficient killing machine - General Victor Malu.

The instruction was simple - dislodge perpetrators of violence, restore law and order & apprehend the suspected murderers.

The mission was code named Operation Hakuri II, the Navy was also instructed to ensure no one escaped via the waterways, while the Police had the task of containing the civilians.

In less than 48 hours the most of Odi was leveled to the ground.

Only a church, schools, hospitals and a bank building survived the operation. Nothing which had life - man or animal - was breathing or moving.

Everything else was rubble or dead flesh.

What many will NEVER reveal when they recount the Odi Massacre is that Lt. Col. Agbabiaka and his men were ambushed between Kaiama and Odi before getting to their destination.

4 soldiers died.

Lt. Col. Agbabiaka called General Victor Malu to update him about the ambush and asked if he should call of the Operation. Malu asked him if he had completed his objective. Agbabiaka answered “No, Sir”.

Malu told him to proceed until the objective of the mission was achieved and then went to brief President Obasanjo.

Agbabiaka got to Odi and came under what he reported as “Heavy and Sustained fire”. The militants were shooting at the soldiers from built up areas, inside houses and buildings.

The militants were using civilians as human shields. Agbabiaka came up with a tactical assault plan to destroy every building the militants fired from. Many RPGs, Three 81mm Mortars, Two 105mm Howitzers and other high caliber explosives were used to blow up every building. The militants retreated to the creeks. Unfortunately, the Navy did not perform as well as expected and the Police Mobile forces were MIA.

Again Ken ESCAPED!

Below is an excerpt about the Odi massacre read from Gen Victor Malu’s Book - In The Name Of Victor.

Over ~375 people were reportedly killed in the most widely condemned military action since the General Sani Abacha pacifist troops overran Ogoniland.

Senate President Chuba Okadigbo & Wole Soyinka called it “high handedness” and “a callous overkill”.

The force commander, Lt.-Col. Agbabiaka, explained away the massacre to Chuba Okadigo & his team of senators as a 'defensive action.' 🙄

Obasanjo called it “the animalism of the military”.

10 years later, Ken Niweigha was finally arrested in 2009 when he allegedly attempted to kill the Bayelsa State Commisioner of Police, Onouha Uka Udeka in a shoot out at a check point on a Tuesday Night.

Despite being LG Coordinator of the Bayelsa Volunteers (a state security outfit) under Gov. Timipre Sylvia and his subsequent suspension, The SSS had slated Ken down for arrest and prosecution for illegal possession of arms and gun running.

The next day, Ken was led to his arms dump in Odi for evidence collection where the Police were ambushed by members of Ken’s gang and Ken was killed in the shoot out!

In 2013, Justice Lambi Akanbi of the Federal High Court ordered the FG to pay the victims of the Odi Massacre 37.6 Billion Naira as compensation. He gave a 3 week ultimatum.

On May 26, 2014, President Goodluck Jonathan & the FG negotiated an out of court settlement of N15billion and paid the compensation.

If you know Nigerian History, you can literally predict the future.

RIP to the murdered officers of 181 Amphibious Battalion and the 63 Brigade of the Nigerian Army.

There's no news here. This is common knowledge in Osun.

Someone that made tiny statues of all past Osun governors in front of government house and put his late brother's statue in the middle and made it the largest.

All the other governors' statues combined do not reach half of his brother's statue.

He said he's doing Ede road whereas he has almost killed all traders and school children with dust. No wetting of the exposed clay soil throughout the dry season. If you enter Akoda on a bike with a white shirt, you'll leave Ajip junction (not even Oke-gada) with a brown shirt.

I don't think I've seen a more irresponsible engineering than what's going on in that road project. You'll leave for work in the morning only to return to a new trench on your way at night. And the so-called engineers won't put any warning sign. The cloud of dust will also add blindness. I once witnessed one okada man almost fall into the evil ditch the 'engineers' dug around Abike hospital.

If children of Ede who attend public (or private) schools along that road suffer respiratory problems ten years from now, Ademola Adeleke should be held responsible.

Abeg, let's just leave the miscreant's matter. It's not his fault. Na Aregbe wey betray our trust dey cause all this suffering.

But it's the truth look at it objectively,if you give me 100m and I launder it for you and collect my commission am now a sponsor of terrorism.This bandits cum kidnappers collect monies in millions what sponsors do they need.
Laundering money is a big crime globally, especially if you are doing it on behalf of terrorists and drug barons. That's why the same Anti Money Laundering AML law is adopted by all governments across the world. Money launderers are a menace to the society and saboteurs of their national economies.

A lot of contributors on this supposedly faceless Nairaland platform deserve the same treatment for their curses and abusive language against powerful government officials.

SalamRushdie:
Dogo Jede and Bello Turji are still moving free after killing many more soldiers ..They also need to be arrested
Dogo Gide and Turji Bello will also be killed, just like Shekau of the Boko Haram was eventually killed.

Even the militants that murdered and mutilated the 16 gallant soldiers will also be killed soon. Because he who kill by the sword will also die by the sword.

bro nor be insult matter be this. Did the army have a right to resolve communal dispute? NO. That's work of police, now even if they want to do illegal work, did they inform DPO Ughelli South division? NO!, Did they inform the King? NO! did they try to detain the community leaders illegally? Yes. Now why are a whole 17 soldiers including 4 senior officers in the creeks to rescue 1 youth? Only an idiot can believe that. Nigerians should ask themselves what is the military interest in the creeks of Okuoma? Why did military join the ijaw attackers? Be reasonable
Why not tell us the interest of the military in Okuama, since the reason they gave failed to satisfy you, and since it appears you know their ulterior motive. Then tell us.

Let them release the man, he has suffered enough.

But what baffles me is why the Igbo elites are not mounting persistent pressure on the government to release him. Except for the ESN/UGM agitation, the whole Igbo tribe have abandoned him. The same person their youths were worshipping like a god some years ago.
