"It was while the looting was going on that the armed thugs emerged to engage them in a bloody clash that left socio-economic activities paralysed for hours"

They may not be armed thugs, some of the youths are tired of looting and destruction. Hence, they came out to stop the looting.

This the best time to relocate to the new planet before wicked people take over the planet and start introducing one useless visa.

He has done more that Buhari in the last 5 years

He has also done more than Wike in his last 5 years.

I challenge Nnamdi Kanu to even visit Aso rock gate and grant interview after his visit.

How are my supposed to know the meaning of E-MD 1, R2, R3, C2, D2, F9?

NONSENSE.

If you refuse to obey God, you will be forced to obey the devil.

PDP

Our democracy is not under threat now.
The court is the last hope of a common man now. If Tambuwal and PDP had lost, our judges would have been termed corrupt and working for the government and APC.

You threatened to take your case to ICC, why go to INEC now?

Niccoloimhotep:


This excuse sounds both stupid and lame to me. The almighty federal govt giving up an entire project without a fight even when the resisting force has not fired a single shot nor attacked anybody. Since when actually did the government become so weak? This is the same government that unleashed python dance and crocodile smile on ipob and niger delta militants.
I think there's a mischievous undertone to this, haba ......this is just too lame.

You are so much in love with Python dance.

Don't complain if the federal government eventually answer your prayers.

Since Dickson has grown wings and want to dictate the pace in Bayelsa, GEJ will tactically give support to the APC candidate and Bubu will gladly give his blessings.

The Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) has condemned what it described as barbaric and disgraceful the attack on peaceful protest of its members by South African police.

The group said the act was an indication that state sanctioned politics of savagery has taken firm hold in Cyril Ramaphosa’s South Africa.

In a statement on Thursday signed by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, the group linked the attack to President Muhammadu Buhari who “influenced Ramaphosa to order his police to open fire on peaceful Biafran protesters.”

“The crass display of primitive police brutality and anti-democratic antecedents of the South African police is confirmation if any is needed, that black Africa is hopeless and doomed,” it said.

The group hinted that its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, would in a broadcast later in the day provide in-depth examination and analysis of the unfolding events in South Africa.

There was a gridlock after the Kogi state governor, Yahaya Bello, sprayed money at Gwagwalada, along the Abuja – Lokoja road on Wednesday.

Bello, who was on his way from Abuja heading to Lokoja, with his long convoy slowed down at Madam Mercy junction and brought out a wrapped three bundles of N500 notes and threw them out at passersby.

Our reporter, who was caught up in the gridlock which lasted for just ten minutes, observed as the governor wind down the glass of his vehicle and displayed eight of his fingers (4+4) while some motor park touts at the popular Wazobia Park were seen hailing the governor as they rushed to grab the money.

It was further observed as some pedestrians, petty traders by the road side as well as some commercial motorcyclists abandoned their motorcycles and scrambled for the money.

A former member of the House of Representatives and Senator representing Kano Central, Rufai Hanga, has told the North to shelve the idea of remaining in power after President Muhammadu Buhari’s tenure.

According to him, the power should return to the South and precisely, the Southwest because they will turn things around, adding that it is not because of their (Southwest) loyalty to the North, but because they have done it before and we have seen it.

The Kano-born politician also said that Igbo cannot produce next president by threats, adding that the South East and South South have little or no chance at all.

He said “To me, I wouldn’t want to say that power should remain in the North or rotate to the South, ” he told Sun.

“To me, if I were to be candid, I will rather say power should to go to the South because it is safer and more dignifying for Nigerian politicians.

“At the beginning of the present democratic dispensation, we promised zoning. The South had it, the North had it, the South should have it next.

“That one I am comfortable with. Whether it is suitable or not, that is a different question. For me, I will rather want it to go round.

“That is why I felt we should start from somewhere and begin to search for competence.

“We should give it a trial so that everything will not boil down to ethnic politics. Left for me, I will support the Southwest.

“But if I do that, people will begin to say it is selfishness because I am close to this man or that man. For me, based on competence, I will want someone from that zone to be the next man because I know they will turn things around.

“If given to them, I know they will turn things around. I am doing this for myself or anybody, but for Nigeria. If you want to change things in Nigeria, give it to them. With those I have in mind, I am sure they will turn things around. Nigeria will be better for it. I believe so. But if another person has it, so be it.

“It is not because of their loyalty to the North, it is because they are Nigerians. Two, they have done it and we have seen it.

“Tell me anywhere else in this country that is transformed to the best place in Africa other than Southwest. No other section of this country did it than the Southwest.

“We started together, and each region was ruling itself. Which region can boast of the best performer other than the Southwest?

“That is why I believe if you get a South westerner, he will do for Nigeria what they did for Southwest. I am not saying this because of their loyalty to the North, I am saying because of their competence.

“This man is competent, he can do it is different from this man is competent he has done it before.

“That I have heard from the section 15 to 20 years. And like I said, we just cannot do things in a particular way because someone has threatened this or that.

“If some applicants come to you for interview and one of them says, if you don’t employ me, your company will crash down, another person says to you, employ me, I will do what I did for the other company to grow and the third one says, try me, I will do my best and you will certainly be happy that you have tried me, who among the three would you employ?

“The most assuring is that applicant than that says, ‘I have done it, and I can do it again.’ That I will do it is different from I have done it before.

“The one threatening to scatter everything already had his fate sealed. One man cannot come and say it is either me or never. It is impossible. This is 21st Century; nobody can threaten anybody that rain will fall. Nothing will happen.

“With Southwest alliance with the Northwest, it is a sure banker the Southwest will get it. Whether they score 2/3 majority or not, they will still get it because when there is no clear winner, there will be a rerun.

“When there is a rerun, what they need to win is simple majority. And where is the majority coming from? Northwest and Southwest. Volume of votes from Kano alone is almost equivalent of votes for about seven or eight states from Southeast or South-south.

“The voting strength from Southwest alone is equivalent of the votes from eight states in the Southeast and South-south. With Southwest and Northwest, I don’t think there is anything that will stop them from getting the president.

“They will have total grip of the Northwest. If they form a strong alliance with the Northwest, I think they may make it. But how do you think they can make it with that alliance?

“Who and who from Southeast will penetrate the North to come and make such alliance? I think the Southwest came early to the Northwest even though they still have some areas they have not touched and which they need to touch. If the Southeast is smart enough to go and tap into these areas, I am sure they will make it.”

Media is the main problem we are having in this country

If this man is truly a chief Imam. I can't judge this his claims.

But he should remember Quran 4 verse 135:

"O ye who believe! Stand out firmly for justice as witnesses to Allah even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for Allah can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts) lest ye swerve and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do."

Drug addict.

He does not see anything wrong in a terrorist threatening and ordering miscreants to arrest a President.

It is easier to push the gullible and foolish people to trouble. They pushed Sowore, only the man is facing the consequences now.

candidtalk:
How many Igbos for example, have the core decency to agree Buhari had the right to send Python twerk against Kanu because the IPOB leader directly contributed to that order from our President with the flouting of the strict bail condition he promised to abide by? Was Kanu not told to desist from gathering in a crowd and inciting them? What was Kanu doing over the SE after he was bailed other than taunting the FG with conduct his bail condition strictly prohibited him from engaging in?

Today you only talk of the 'tyranny' of Python twerk without ever admitting Kanu caused that reaction with his troublemaking and criminal conduct. Is this not how you Igbos play victim over the civil war and leave out the part about your actions that 100% led to it? This is what shames you Igbos. You don't accept that actions have consequences and you are largely lawbreakers most times who want others to join you pretending you were not in the wrong and that you did not act in ways that directly caused the negative reactions that fell on your head.


You Igbos are just shameless and I back Nigerian leaders giving you Biafra because a great nation cannot be built with people who, regardless of their talent/ability, have no respect for the law and are not concerned about right or wrong. Those type of people, i.e Igbos, will always, to the detriment of societal development, accept what they want and reject what they dislike regardless of the position of the law that makes it clear what we all can do and must not do. In short Igbos are lawless by nature and no nation can achieve greatness with lawless people. Igbos will shout worldwide Buhari is a 'tyrant' over Python twerk yet how many admit the wrongdoing of Kanu, highlighted below, that led to Python dancing in Abia? This is why Igbos are not taken seriously today. Give them Biafra so they can continue their lawlessness in it. That is my opinion.

State001:
President of the Senate, Dr Ahmad Lawan, on Monday, paid a visit to Senator Ike Ekweremadu at his Abuja residence, Igbere TV reports.

The visit comes after Senator Ekweremadu returned to the country from Germany, and barely 48 hours after an assault on him.

Igbere TV had reported that Ekweremadu was physically assaulted in Germany, on Saturday, by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The former Deputy Senate President was invited as a guest speaker at the 2nd Annual Igbo Cultural Festival in Nuremberg, when the assault took place.

Other dignitaries who visited the lawmaker include Senator Chris Ngige, Hon. Nnoli Nnaji, Hon. Kingsley Ebenyi, Senator Gil Nnaji, among others.

Meanwhile, Igbere TV had reported that Senator Ike Ekweremadu said he has forgiven his attackers and would not be seeking their punishment.

Speaking to journalists at the Abuja Airport, on Monday, the Senator said the attack was not a representation of the character of Nigerians both at home and abroad.

He, therefore, advised Nigerians and Igbo leaders to feel free to travel to any part of the world they wish, reiterating that he has since put the issue behind him.

Priscy01:
Kogi State House of Assembly has begun the process for the impeachment of the state Deputy Governor, Simon Achuba.

Majority leader Abdullahi Bello (Ajaokuta, APC) read the impeachment notice before the house on Wednesday, saying it was signed by 21 out of the 25 lawmakers.

The legislators hinged the petition on three grounds of criminal indulgence, financial misappropriation and non-performance.

They also claimed that the allegations, actions and utterances of the deputy governor amounted to gross misconduct.

Achuba had accused the governor of the state, Yahaya Bello, of being after his life.

He alleged that Bello had sent gunmen to kill him, adding that the governor had withheld the payment of his allowances amounting to N800 million.

The majority leader cited Section 188 of 1999 Constitution and prayed the house to commence investigation towards the impeachment move for the deputy governor.

The speaker, Kolawole Matthew, agreed to the prayers in the petition and asked that the petition be served on Achuba for him to respond to within 14 days.

O boy, political business is very very very lucrative in this country.

800 million naira as allowances for only 4 years? and the man is not loyal to the Governor. You can imagine how much allowances he will get if he is loyal.

SaviMedia:
The Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has described the call for a revolution in Nigeria by activist, Omoyele Sowore is the highest form of bravery.

Kanu went on to say that the arrest of Sowore by the DSS and consequent actions carried out by security agencies to stop the RevolutionNow protest on Monday is an affront to decency, justice and fair play, adding that he did nothing wrong.

The IPOB leader who was reacting to the whole issue surrounding the RevolutionNow protest berated the President Mohammadu Buhari administration for describing the protest as Illegal stressing that he (Buhari) and his supporters did make similar call in 2014 for revolution and nobody got them arrested.

It will be recalled that 5 years ago, the APC led by its then presidential aspirant and Gen.Muhammadu Buhari; APC National Chairman, John Odigie-Oyegun and Rivers State Governor, Chibuike Amaechi, led thousands of party supporters in a protest rally in Abuja, accusing the PDP-led Federal Government of playing politics with Boko Haram.

The protest tagged ‘Salvation Rally’, was said to have aimed at drawing global attention to what the then opposition party(APC), described as deliberate hijack of the Nigeria police and other security agencies by the ruling PDP.

As reported by Vanguard Newspaper 5 years ago, the APC leaders said, the rally was essentially a clarion call against the increased spate of insecurity, killings, corruption, and police brutality against official opposition.

They also accused President Goodluck Jonathan and the PDP of gross incompetence and unprecedented display of impunity.

Reacting to all these, Kanu said it is laughable that the same set of persons who in 2014 called for a revolution and organized a nationwide street protest against the democratically elected government of Goodluck Jonathan now see similar move as a treasonable offence under their own regime.

According to him, "This same set of people now in Aso Rock and their media friends that came out on the street to march, protest and call for revolution against President Jonathan in 2014, are today the same bunch of despicable reprobates against any form of lawful dissent, protest or revolution against their regime.

"This is not only laughable, but an affront to decency, justice and fair play. Apparently, the occupants of Aso Rock are telling the world they can call for a revolution and street protest against a sitting president i.e. Jonathan, but nobody is allowed to protest against them.

"Pathetically some of these poorly educated fellows from their 'presidency' come on their national television to shamelessly provide a flimsy defence of what is clearly indefensible.

"The same thing late Buhari did in 2014 by openly calling for a revolution and organising nationwide street protests with the likes of Bola Ahmed Tinubu against the democratically elected government of Goodluck Jonathan is now a treasonable offence under their rule.

"Even going by the cringe-worthy standards of the most hopelessly backward Banana republic on this earth, the detention of Sowore for doing exactly what late Buhari did is a new low for the Zoo.

"Why didn't Buhari, Abba Kyari, El-Rufai, Tinubu et al wait for the election of 2015 to remove Jonathan before embarking on their 2014 Revolution as they are now sanctimoniously preaching?

"Why did they take to the streets in protest, an action they themselves openly tagged a revolution, before an election?

"The only language this Abba Kyari led Fulani Jihadi cabal in Aso Rock understand is consistent mass action and civil disobedience. IPOB has done and is still doing it and so too the Shiite.

"What the Yoruba nation and every conscientious person must do now is to rally round Omoleye Sowore to ensure his release or else he will be another Sambo Dasuki detained indefinitely with no constituency to mount pressure on his behalf as IPOB did in my case and Shiite (INM) for Sheikh El-Zakzaki."

Kanu said that the RevolutionNow is a laudable initiative and must be commended by all lovers of freedom.

"What Sowore did in calling for a revolution in Nigeria is the highest form of bravery. Protests should continue and if need be intensified, especially in Yorubaland, until Omoleye Sowore is set free."

These people do not mind presenting their fathers' head to Buhari just so they can dream more of their 2023 Osunbade utopian presidency.

Despicable sets of idiots.

I can understand your predicament.


2023 presidency is the dream of the east. Now you fear that some strong contenders may come out from the west, that is the reason for this constant attack on the west.

Just any national issues now, you and your brothers must connect it to 2023 presidency and the west.

Relax your mind, all Nigerians are free to contest for the presidency. The one with highest vote cast wins, Insult and hate can never win you an election.
