Na statistics we go chop

franchasofficia:
Nigeria's constitution did not say you must win core North and core Southwest to win Nigeria's Presidential election.

I can swear with my life that Peter Obi won the majority vote in the last Presidential election but whether he got the spread is something I cannot say since INEC didn't allow us know the actual truth by being fair.


But as for majority of votes cast, I can swear with anything that Peter Obi won.

Peter Obi's votes that were slashed and reduced in Lagos, Rivers, Plateau, Benue and Nasarawa alone is more than 3 million votes


As for Labor Party winning majority in Senate and House of Reps, I can boldly tell you that Peter Obi's supporters in the last Presidential election weren't interested in who became Senator or Reps and they weren't Labor Party members, they were only interested in voting Peter Obi to emerge President hoping his emergence will put other things in place with time.


I voted APC Senatorial candidate because I like the man, I knew him personally. I voted LP for Rep and President.



That was how Peter Obi and most Obidients voted in the last Presidential election; we were not voting party but candidates based on their individual personalities

on point

Too bad for Rishi Sunak. For someone of Indian heritage, he took over as PM at the worst time possible. Managing the economic challenges that came with Covid-19 has been difficult all over the world. No magic could have made him win the election.

Congratulations to Keir Starmer. This is a very massive victory that was thought impossible just five years ago. Now that he will be assuming office as PM, it’s time to face the reality and walk the talk. He will no longer be the opposition leader criticizing everything and making the man in office look so bad. Let’s see the magic he will perform in the next one year.

To those bad losers from Nigeria, there is a lesson here for you guys. The losers accepted defeat without blaming anyone or lying that they won. The leader of the party that came third did not go on live TV to falsely claim they won the election unlike in Nigeria where a candidate that couldn’t even get 25% of vote cast in 15 states somehow started claiming he won the election.

You dey talk say the third position when obi get na 1 million vote e be. Na 6 million something vote oh and remain small e for pass the second person when still get 6 million something vote oh

Thanks for the response. Well understood. What documents do I need to reregister the car and get a new plate number? And if I decide to keep using the old plate number, is there any trouble, after I get affidavit and purchase receipt?

These document may vary from state to state, my best bet is enquire at the licencing office in your state what their requirements are and it's total cost.

kachi666:
Please guys I need clarification or better understanding about my car documents. I purchased a Nigeria Used car and I'm the 3rd buyer, the original importer, sold it to someone who sold it to me. On the day of purchase, we went to court to change of ownership, affidavit and also purchase receipt, the car documents were all carrying the original importer names, including the road worthiness, licenses, insurance and the rest.

I want to know, why the car documents renewal is still showing the original importer details instead of my name. Also, all the documents like insurance, road worthiness, license, new proof of ownership certificate, is showing the original importer details, why can't this be changed to my name? Do I need to change the car plate number? Can I use Ogun State car license, road worthiness in Lagos state?

Please I need help on these

you would need to get a new plate number and reregister the car if you want it to bear your name

Not sure if this is the right forum, but I am unhappy, as I type this message, I think it is usually too late to cry when the head is cut off, but i will cry anyways.

I have been married for 6 years now and brethren it has not been easy, I think I married a wrong person, am not a perfect neither is she, i just think we are not compatible. There is is no love between us. Our values are different. Me and my wife dont get along, well.

We have just been tolerating each other. I only realize what i am missing because i recent caught feelings for this colleague of mine. So there is this colleague of mine, we have worked together for almost 2 years now but more related to work. I have started catching feelings for this girl o and it all started in a party we attend together. I know she too has feeling for me. I see it in her eyes. She comes to sit with me, and we talk about alot of private stuff. She tells me all that is happening in her life, i also do same. she knows I am married with kids but i am sure if i make a move she will agree. I never could imagine I will find myself in a situation, tempted to commit adultery. When i have a wife at home, this opened my eyes and push me to want resolved the relationship issue with my wife. I approached her some days ago to voice my concern that the marriage is not working, we dont communicate, there is no love, what can we do to resolve the matter. My wife said she is used to our situation. I asked what can we do differently and she says we shd go see a marriage counselor. I said fine but can we even discuss and she tells me she is tired she wants to sleep and then stops responding to me.

My wife prefers to sleep alone, despite me telling her we shd sleep together as a couple. if she is in the room and I come to the room she will immediately goes to the parlor, we rarely have body contact. The few times we have sex she never kisses even when i try, she puts her mouth away. Even in the car we can be on a drive for 1 hr, without mentioning a word to each other. Most times it is either the car radio or my kids that break the silence. What surprises me is she is very comfortable with it, you just see her on her phone. The only saving grace is I have a source of income and provide for the home that why she listens sometimes.

Reflecting back on if i had to opportunity i wont have married her, she has caused me alot of pain. she doesnt play that supportive role expected of a wife, she has this feminist tendency. She also has this ego issue and find it difficult to take feedback, whenever i raise an issue, she just get very upset and in many times it turns into a fight. There are days I fall sick, my wife no send o. Even cooking for me is like stress. She goes out without telling me, does things without getting my consent or even carrying me along. When she brings people to the house, she wont even introduce them to me as her husband. she doesnt send respect or regards me. I tell you an example of something that happened last year, we were travelling November last year to the UK on holidays with the children, because of our luggages we took two uber vehicles, I sat in one with my daughter, my wife sat in the other with my son. While on the way to the airport, do you know my wife asked the driver to take a detour to shoprite that she wants to give someone the left over stew and food items we had. Shoprite is not on the way to the airport, we had less than 2 hours to go for an intentional flight. It was me that noticed their car going a different direction, I had to call the uber driver to tell him to turn back immediately. When the uber guy came he told me he had asked my wife to mention it to me, but she said no need, I dont need to be told. We got to the airport while offloading the luggage from the car, my wife suddenly disappeared. I had 8 boxes , 2 children to move with. Thank God for those people that help with the luggage at the airport. I passed through customs and NDLEA and began to clear with the airline before she showed up. I was so mad, even a custom lady was yelling at her, how can you just disappear leaving your husband with all the loads and children. My wife didnt even apologize, she said she went to drop the food items with the person she asked to come to the airport, after i asked the uber driver to reroute to the airport. That is how disunited we are.


The good side is not cheating, and she is spiritual, she can go to church 10 times a week, currently serves in 2 units and hold leadership roles in those unit. I have told her if she give 20 percent of the time in church to our relationship and family we would be happier. The major complain she mentioned from my side is we shd go out together more often, she wants me to organize morning devotions, that we shd pray more with the children, this was something I believe her dad did when they were growing up, the experience is different for me. I have told her I will try. She also mentioned I like to complain, which is not true.

This whole thing is hitting me hard cos I dont want to cheat with my colleague and i just experienced a glimpse of what we shd be enjoying. I also have the chance of relocating to the Australia but i knw if we do, I will enter one chance.

Does anyone knw a good marriage counselor, that can be recommended, I saw one done by one of this popular pastor they are asking for $150 for a 1hour session, I also dont want to involve my family or her family.

I am tempted to just leave the house for 2 weeks and go stay in an hotel, but how will that help it will only make matters worse.

From all you wrote up there, my brother it hasn't crashed. Marriage is hard work put effort into it rather than looking for an easy way out through fornication

Jerroga:
There's an issue that needs your kind attention.
I applied for a scholarship and during this application the passport no was imputed, the no of years remaining was 1 year 7months, but now will this affect me when I have to go for my visa application, because the intended no of years for the study is 3 years. Will it affect my being granted the visa?

Shi I renew the passport now and apply with that or use the present 1, I have been advised to renew since the data page will show the previous passport no.
I have 1 year 2 months validity presently.

no it won't, but you can consider the expenses it would cost you to renew in your country of destination. My opinion if they would renew for you, because by law less than six months validity is when you should renew. Just do a 10 yrs passport renewal and save your self the expenses of renewing abroad.

An untrained is a danger to the nation

A Yoruba actress was first jailed 6months.for this offense.

Next, was Bobrisky who is now chopping beans at Kirikiri. He too was Yoruba.

Cubana is Igbo. No one should scream tribalism

The emphasis here is that this is not a witch hunt.

Peace.

sorry to say it is a witch hunt

I am in awe of the perseverance of Joseph. Is this in the Bible? Thank you Jesus. When the devil wants to take the Glory of any man he comes with temptations.

Even Obi will laugh at your jokes.

I always laugh when you people treat Nigeria case like it is some vacuum. In politics, you plan for reality and not fantasy.

Ask yourself, why is Labor party having crisis currently. It is because in Nigeria, the people there are molded different. To succeed, you need to play their game because people here don’t follow that righteous nonsense.

Tinubu is the strongest Nigeria politician of this century. If you can’t see that from him winning 2023 election against all odds coupled with the FG landmines laid for him, then I feel sorry for Obi for having kids like you parrot his name.

Obi in 2023 was an Igbo and Christian candidate. He did nothing spectacular as he only won his region & religion. The mumuni even lost against two Muslim candidates, he is the greatest weakling I’ve ever known.

I am sure you were aware of vote buying, intimidation of electorates, rigging of votes in the 2023 elections. If you put all those into context, I am sure this is something you weren't proud of, still you went ahead to make such conclusion

Well one of my guys that got 200k told me some months ago they put a restriction on his account and are collecting the money by force

what of the money trader loan?

You see in this report it never mentioned the current capitalization that the banks are on for us to justify if it's a tall order for the banks to achieve despite being given two years to hit this target

Rest in peace

It is very clear now that EL-RUFAI is contesting 2027 under SDP and I can tell you for free that he will win north west and east except Adamawa and Taraba state which would surely be taken by OBI or PDP( Atiku)...

North Central, south east , south south would be taken by OBI......Obi may win 2027

Doc Tinubu no go gree oh. The premise for this statement is based on how buhari got his second term ticket in 2019. Tinubu would like to complete his two terms oh
