Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has approved the appointment of Prince Abimbola Owoade as the new Alaafin of Oyo following the recommendation of the Oyomesi, the kingmakers of Oyo Kingdom.
Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Dotun Oyelade, made the announcement on Friday.
He explained that Owoade was chosen after extensive consultations and traditional divinations.
“Prince Abimbola Akeem Owoade, after thorough consultations and divinations, has been recommended by the Oyomesi and approved by Governor Seyi Makinde as the new Alaafin of Oyo,” the statement read.
Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Ademola Ojo, noted that the appointment resolves the legal and social disputes that followed the former Alaafin Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III’s death on April 22, 2022.
“This decision has put to rest all the socio-legal controversies that have arisen since the transition of the late Oba Adeyemi. We urge the people of Oyo State to support the new Alaafin and join the government in celebrating this historic moment,” Ojo said.
The government expressed hope that the reign of Prince Abimbola Owoade would bring peace, unity and prosperity to Oyo Kingdom.
MadPolitician: Bla bla bla bla Oga, shut up! I'm an average Nigerian and I'm not a criminal. There are criminals in every country I have travelled to. The only difference with Nigeria is that we seldom punish those caught and as such we have many repeat offenders. Stop criminalising Nigerians and the black man
When buying a used car in Nigeria, it’s essential to obtain and verify several key documents to ensure the transaction is legal and smooth. Here’s what you should ask for:
1. Vehicle Registration Document • This proves the car is legally registered with the relevant authorities (Federal Road Safety Corps or Lagos State Vehicle Registration, for example). • Verify that the name on the registration matches the seller’s details.
2. Proof of Ownership • This is a crucial document that shows the current owner of the vehicle. • Ensure the seller’s name matches the one on the Proof of Ownership.
3. Road Worthiness Certificate • This confirms the vehicle has passed inspection and is deemed safe for road use. • It’s issued by the Vehicle Inspection Office (VIO).
4. Purchase Receipt/Invoice • If the car was originally purchased from a dealership, request the receipt or invoice. • This provides a history of the car’s purchase and may validate ownership.
5. Customs Clearance Documents • If the car is imported, ask for proof of duty payment. This is crucial to confirm that the vehicle was legally brought into the country. • Look for documents from the Nigerian Customs Service.
6. Valid Insurance Certificate • Request the most recent insurance document to verify that the car has been insured during the seller’s ownership.
7. Means of Identification • Collect a copy of the seller’s valid ID (e.g., National ID, Driver’s License, International Passport) to confirm their identity.
8. Change of Ownership Agreement • Prepare a formal agreement signed by both parties indicating the transfer of ownership. • This should be witnessed, and ideally, notarized to make it official.
9. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) Check • Verify the VIN on the vehicle and match it with the registration and customs documents. • Conduct a VIN search to check the car’s history and ensure it hasn’t been stolen or involved in criminal activity.
10. Police Report (Optional but Recommended) • In cases where there’s any doubt about the legitimacy of the seller, request a police report to confirm the vehicle isn’t stolen.
By obtaining and verifying these documents, you reduce the risk of fraud and ensure you can legally own and operate the vehicle.
Orissodiq: And funny enough Lagos State is not under any form of terrorism or security threat and they are already proactive about improving Dia state's security. Whereas some states that have security issues won't learn from this and improve Dia security but will be waiting for someone in ABUJA to protect them.
Indeed Lagos is a country within a country
Heard they bought is it 20 police vehicles last week to an entire state
10thTenthMan: The concern of people about the season for this journey is justified. Winter limits movement, make pains like rheumatism and arthritis worse and the cold leads to other health vulnerabilities. So do not mind the method they have communicated this but their concerns ARE VERY VALID.
So what are the factors to consider
1. Weather: Get her a good jacket, neck warmer, winter hat, and shoes, she can arrive with, From Tejuosho/Yaba markets if she is in Lagos if she is not, then get her something very good from a close by market. Please DO NOT LOOK FOR SOMETHING FASHIONABLE. LOOK FOR SOMETHING PRACTICAL . You are in Canada. I am too. If you haven’t experienced the cold, you won’t know. No matter how it is explained, you won’t understand until your ears, eye, nostrils, fingers, toenails freeze and suffer frost bites. Be prepared to get her something better in Canada when she lands in Canada. I stay in the Prairies. No cloth sold in Nigeria can match -45 degrees Celsius. You would have to use multiple layers.
2. Food: please do not fill her bags with only what you miss in Nigeria. Let her bring things she will eat. They are healthier. Plant based. Unprocessed. The spices and seasonings she is used to. I am not saying she shouldn’t bring stuff for you but let her bring things for herself too. If she has spices and other natural herbs she takes, let her pack them too. Prioritize her comfort and wellbeing over the spices and things you miss in Nigeria.
3. Bills: Be realistic and ready to know that cost might go up. Of course this isn’t an issue I hope. It is hoped you have planned for her to come. Know that you might run your heaters, water, etc more hence expect some 100-200 CAD Spike in total bills.
4. Checks, Confirmation and Enlightenment: Inform her about the way of life of Canadians or any other important information around where you reside. Luckily, Canadians are a bit more laidback. Brief her if she is traveling to Canada for the first time. Go through all the essentials and let those helping her prep ensure she has everything she needs. Inform her about keeping her passport and travel documents and cash in the same purse/bag/ and keep those close to her and secure. Brief her about avoiding making quick “ stranger friends” at the airport. She should not accept anything or leave her bag with anyone, etc. etc.
5. Health. Let her visit a doctor in Nigeria. A quick medical check. Then like someone mentioned she should treat Malaria and Typhoid. ALSO IF SHE IS ON MEDICATION, please let her BUY AS MUCH AS WILL LAST HER OVERSEAS. Remember that the Canadian Healthcare system is SHIT! They have the equipment and tech, but their administration and availability are limited. If there are things like BP machines she uses, let her pack those too. They are portable. Get her good supplements when she arrives. Vitamin D, and others for bones and general health. I have seen and know of cases of aged folks in Nigeria who got a lot of relief and health benefits due to the health supplements they take from overseas.
6. Essentials: Please let her bring her creams and moisturizer, lip balm, etc. A lot of people bring Shea butter. But this has a high freezing point hence does not do much good when you go out. I bought and mixed Castor Oil and Flaxseed Oil. Then I mixed them with some glycerin, and a 2k perfume oil I bought in Nigeria for fragrance. This is what I use. Why do I use this mixture. I realize with freezing point of about -17 to - 20 degrees Celsius, these oils stay on my skin under the cold. Sunflower oil also has freezing temperatures of -17 degrees Celsius. Yeah, don’t mind me, I had to ''science'' the hell out of the issue of making my own appropriate homemade body oil which I used as cream/lotion. The beauty of science. Note I avoided almond oil because of its strong smell but it has a -18 freezing point hence should have been a good oil to rub as well. Other local creams freeze under the harsh Canadian Weather.
7. Fun: Winter is “too somehow” or “one kind” as we say in Nigeria. The walks we see in Summer and the Grandparents taking kids to join the bus in summer mornings will not be so easy. Of course, if the cold isn’t so bad where she is, she can perform these duties that they so love doing for their grandkids if any. Some things to do include:
-Walk children to the bus -Walk kids back from the bus -Mind the Children and baby sit -Go out and visit close friends and family members -Attend Church programs, outreaches, and simple volunteering. -Visit downtown and major malls -Evening neighborhood walks if the weather permits and conditions are not slippery. (AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AVOID THE DANGEROUS SLIPS AND FALLS !!!!!!!! It is usually bad for aged people) -Visit Nigerian Restaurant like Global Pot, etc. if in the Prairies. -Visit Canadian Cafes and Restaurants -Take Winter Photographs and Videos -Take the kids sledding with their Toboggans if you have kids and they have toboggans. -Visit farmers or flea markets if any in your area.
If you have other things, you have thought of for fun, you can add them to the list so other people who have parents and parent-in-laws coming can also get ideas.
I wonder when English has become a parameter for judging a good leader. Most foreign countries adopt their native language when communicating yet more develop than we the so called ‘ENGLISH MASTERS’. Arise, focus on better things and leave unnecessary talks. The most important thing is that he has communicated to all who choose to hear.
Goke7: I think it’s asking you to now link the evisa to your ukvi account. Your ukvi account is the one you use either your brp or passport number to log in.
My Ogas here. Una well done I just want to enquire about an issue. I have done my evisa on the evisa platform since however, when I logged in into it now, I discovered that apart from the submitted evisa done and already completed, there is another form at the upper part of the page saying link your evisa to your account. What does that means please? Am I to do another application or what. Thanks
ConDawah: I don't think Obi's visit will matter much. We have a book in circulation defaming Chief Afe. He'll have to write another book in prison to counter the one he already published. I've always known it's a matter of time before he gets in trouble with the way he talks carelessly.
That rufai might be the next with the way he talks anyhow
