Which Iran
Or is another Iran newly created in space?
Or you are just kidding

adebowales:
do you remember this?
You aren’t even ashamed that with all the weapons US,uk, Germany, France and some other European countries had been supplying you even with boots on ground! You still yet to defeat militants with no military hardware, no air defense, tanks and any form of hard weapons for over 2yrs.
It is even interesting that if those European countries decide to end their support for you, your country dies immediately.
The only crime Palestinians committed was given home to you destitute who were chased away from over 100 countries.

Watcharena:
So IDF has not defeated Hamas in after almost 7 years at war,they have not even disarm them , they're yet to even rescue the hostages.


And those are the same people that want to take on IRAn


Hamas is the weakest link on the axis of resistance

Omenlon:
you forgot that even the chief judge himself is a gonner, because he was not screened and confirm by Martins assembly. For your information, all the commissioners and and appointees who didn't pass through Martins assembly are gone. Anyway, I m not surprised, a lot of you here speak from point of ignorance.

Xisnin:
Don't be deceived.

The Chief judge has no say on impeachment.
His job is to constitute an impeachment panel when prompted.
He can't decide not to, same way a chief judge cannot refuse to swear in a governor or president.
It is a job he must perform!

He cannot chose not to, or he will himself be sanctioned by NJC for
failing to perform his constitutional duties.

And if pressured, the chief judge will not sacrifice his career just
protect a politician who has two years left in power.

APCHaram:
You lie

Fubara's defense in that suit filed by the 27 law makers was that they had lost their seats and could not sue the executive over the budget presentation.

Stop lying .

zero8zero:
Very funny set of lawyers. If the court ruled that spending 2024 budget without the approval of the 27members was illegal, is it the 2025 budget that is the taken before the 4 members that will now be legal?. If they had lost their seats, will the court asked you to present the budget to them?.

360degreess:
..You mean the same Hamas that Israel could not defeat for more than one year?. This war has really exposed all the weaknesses and false propaganda of the Israeli army.

REDshouse:
In Lagos this type of rod per standard is being done or constructed by LCDA ...

Below par standard

etrouble:
LG Chairmen should be doing more than this nonsense

mu2sa2:
It was all-out madness. Nothing to do with religion. Though the antagonists were Muslims and Christians, it was ethnic-based violence. If you're in Jos North and you look like someone from jos South, even by your dressing, you're set upon. Jos north has a large Muslim population. The opposite was happening in jos south: if you look like a Muslim, even by your dressing, you're done for in that Christian- dominated area.
The Muslims were not doing it for Islam neither were the Christians doing it for Christianity. It was pure MADNESS fueled by ethnic bigotry.
Thank goodness, after all the madness of those days, there's some sense of saneness now. Though, I'm just wondering how the mainly young people who perpetrated the madness are dealing with their conscience now.
Violence of any kind involving taking of human lives is destructive to the soul. It takes a heavy toll on both the victor and vanquished alike. Take the ongoing isreal- hamas war for instance. You'd think it's all good for isreali soldiers given their upper hand in the conflict. Not necessarily, because there reports of thousands of them now battling ptsd. I read of an isreali soldier who said since his return from the war front in gaza he couldn't eat meat anymore on account of having seen mangled human bodies of both side. War is terrible for ALL. PEACE hurts nobody.

Melagros:
COMRADES, Mary Jonathan and Mark Jonathan, residing within Zaria Road. Zaria road in Jos is a Muslim dominated area, therefore it is obvious that it was a case of assassination/ homicide carried out by the Hausa-Fulani assassins.
When will these northern people/settlers allow the good people of Plateau State to enjoy peace in the state?

AntiZikist:
The Liberation Day ceremony is an annual event marking the liberation of PH and other coastal areas by Nigerian Federal Forces from Biafran occupation.

It not only celebrates the end of the brutal genocidal biafran occupation but also serves as an independence movement that saw to the minority people being finally freed from the British drawn and Ibo dominated and oppressive Eastern Nigeria.

Without the liberation, one way or the other states like Rivers, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom and Cross River would have still been either under Biafra brutal oppression or the Ibo domineering Eastern Nigeria.


That's not true! I was there it's was against the failed impeachment

THEY BOASTED WE WON'T LAST ONE WEEK IN OFFICE - GOV FUBARA

•But We're Still Waxing Strong


Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has said that those who ruthlessly attempted to end his administration undemocratically, had boasted then to achieve their purpose quickly to boot him out of office within one week but have failed woefully.

The Governor said he had not only stayed in office more than one year and counting, his administration is forging on strongly with sterling leadership, focused on delivering social services and quality projects to Rivers people.

Governor Fubara made the assertion at the Rivers State Day of Thanksgiving, Praise and Worship, held at the Main Bowl of Alfred Diette-Spiff Civic Centre along Moscow Road in Port Harcourt Old Township on Wednesday.

The session was a gathering of thousands of enthusiastic residents and indigenes in Rivers State, including reputable worship leaders, clergies and gospel singers, who joined in the commemoration service to thank God over the botched attempt to abruptly end the administration of Governor Fubara on 30th October, 2023 by undemocratic elements and haters of the State.

He expressed gratitude to God for His divine rescue by frustrating the schemes of detractors, acknowledging that without the overwhelming but organic support of Rivers people, his winning over his transducers would not have been entirely as sweet as it is now.

The Governor said, "If you were not with us, if you had not stood with us, we won't be here at this hour. A lot of you might not understand what happened on the 30th of October, 2023. It was an assassination to the people of Rivers State, indirectly and assassination at me directly.

"Since they can't kill everyone of you, they need to kill one person so that everybody will be declared dead. But somehow, somewhere, by the special grace of God, they failed. And the God that we are thanking today, what they meant for evil, God turned it to good."

Governor Fubara mocked his detractors who had remained determined to derail governance, and insisted that despite their antics, his administration has demonstrated prudence, transparency and accountability in handling the financial resources of the State.

Such public financial diligence, he noted, has attracted commendations from BudgIT, a civic-tech organisation that assessed Rivers State as maintaining the Number One spot in the 2024 Fiscal Performance Ranking among the 36 states of the Federation.

He said, "I can tell you, they said we are not going to last for one week, we are here, we have done one year plus. We are also doing one year anniversary of their attack.

"They said those buccaneers will not leave as local government chairmen, today, we have the 23 local government chairmen sitting here with us. They said their commissioners should resign so that we will be crippled. Today, we have more than 23 commissioners.

"They said, in a programme in Rivers State University, that we are not going to do anything, and that they want to frustrate us. They are going to make us not to succeed. But by the special grace of God, we have embarked on projects that are touching the lives of Rivers people.

"We didn't end there. We have shown prudence that we are not here to steal your money; that we are here to be accountable. And yesterday, we saw it, it was declared by BudgIT that Rivers State has shown Transparency and Accountability and has ranked us in Number One position."

Governor Fubara told the people that, so far, the journey of governance has been rewarding, adding that the most difficult part of the struggle has been experienced.

He insisted that there is nothing happening now that cannot be surmounted, and urged all Rivers people to brace up, be strong and be assured that the unity and peace is still intact.

He said, "I now ask the question: who is the winner? So, I tell you, this evening, we are here to thank God, to appreciate God, to say God, the way you did it one year ago, we know you are going to do it again for us much more.

"So, you don't need to bother about the stories on social media. That one is the least of your trouble. By tomorrow, I am still going to pay my contractors.

"By tomorrow, those of you who have not gotten your salaries, your alert will also come to you. Local Government Chairmen, they have had their JAAC, your money is coming to your accounts.

"Who is the loser? We are not doing luncheon here to celebrate loss or failure. We are praising God because He is taking us to a higher position. So, you see the reason why you need to be happy? You see the reason why we chose today to celebrate the goodness of God in our State and in our lives? We can't thank Him enough."

Governor Fubara restated the commitment of his administration to defend the interest of the State genuinely, adding that with the support of Rivers people, together, they will journey to the end.

The Governor explained while he sincerely implemented the details of the Presidential Peace Accord, including withdrawing legal suits, saying that the other party violated the accord, and went ahead to pursue their suits and secured judgment in their favour.

He said, "We made a promise to you that we will continue to defend and protect the interest of Rivers State genuinely, and we are not going back on that. We will do it, and we will follow through with it. With your support, we will journey it to the end.

"Because we are people of peace, if there is any advantage that was taken over us, it is because of our genuine interest for peace. The preacher said something about peace. I want to tell you that we went to Abuja and Mr President, knowing the importance of peace of Rivers State, brought out some conditions. We came back here in this State.

"First, we did everything that has to be done with those conditions. We went to court immediately, withdrew our matters, but they did not. And you call yourself honourable, when you cannot even obey simple instruction, and you blame it on Fubara.

"How is Fubara the problem? Fubara is not the problem! It was because we withdrew our matter, even the matter you filed, and we said we don't want to continue: you took advantage of it, and went and got judgment. Is it not fraud?"

Governor Fubara said such dishonourable persons should not come to the public to demand that people must listen to them.

He insisted that he acted more honourably, believing that the agreement should be what should bind everybody together.

He explained, "When I discovered that I am being ambushed, not by the person who initiated the peace, but by people who believed that they are smarter.

"But you know such smartness, no matter what you call yourself, it is still foolishness before God. That is why, as they said, those other things that they are looking for, to make them feel they are coming back to life, we will not do it. So, let me see how they will come to life when we don't do it."

Governor Fubara agreed with the preacher of the day who declared the evening as an enactment of the peace of God enthroned in Rivers State.

He said Rivers people are leaving the arena confident that God is taking them to greater height of peace in this State because of the genuine hearts craving for people.

Governor Fubara enjoined all true Rivers people to be strong and remain keyed into the overwhelming peace reigning in the State.

He stressed, "My promise to you all Rivers people is that our administration will do things that will stand the test of time. No matter what it is, we will continue to do those things that even when we leave, people will see them and say, yes, it is done for the good, not for personal interests.

"Not doing a road because I have a farm; not expanding a road because I have a business interest along that street. But I mean doing things that even when we leave, we will be remembered for leaving such legacies."

Delivering a short exhortation, Rev. Umai Ukpai harped on the importance of peace in every individual's life and in Rivers State, emphasising that God abhors trouble makers whose activities are geared towards disrupting the peace and creating uncomfortable living environment.

Rev Ukpai declared that enough is enough for such people while demanding for peace, and invoking the wrath of God on disobedient persons who think they are so powerful to kick people out of their land or from any position of appointment because, according to him, God has arisen to preserve his own.

Highlights of the event included performances by Government House Choir, Preye Odede, Mbata, Ada Zion, Jackson Jones, Okopi, St. Jude's Military Church Choir, Asu Ekiye, Frank Edwards, and Joe Praise, among others.

Sharpsharp00123:
don't b a Mumu

It's a yearly event n it's not even against wike but external forces who once trampled over them

CilicMarin:
Does the state high court has jurisdiction on this matter? The answer is No..

The order from the Federal High court in Abuja is sustained. PDP goes ahead with their congress next month.

SIN Fubara is a boy.

JuanDeDios:
I see. But how come Ad and Nas mostly produce Muslim governors and senators?

senatordave1:
No,Niger is clearly Muslim dominated same as gombe.kogi is just slightly Muslims.
Out of the 21 lgas in adamawa,11 are Muslim dominated.out of the 11 in nasarawa,6 are Muslim dominated

senatordave1:
Adamawa is 50 50 same as nasarawa,Lagos and fct

JuanDeDios:
PH has that many people now? Doesn't change a thing though. I won't argue Abuja with you, but Adamawa and Nasarawa are not majority Christian. And in the Christian South, you will find Lagos, which is around 40% Muslim, and Edo, where Edo North Sen District is around 60% Muslim.

Telltruth123:
Maybe next election, you people should try christian/christian presidential ticket and see if you will win election.
