PoliticsRe: Saraki Is Facing Trial, So Why Can’t Judges Be Arrested? - Anti-corruption Commi by MRSALT: 12:42am On Oct 18, 2016
[quote author=Wadeoye post=50288641]Is any law broken if a suspected criminal (be it a Judge or lawmaker)

Two constitutional breaches that led to outcry of arrest of the judges are; 1. EFCC not DSS are mandated by law to arrest and arrain corrupt people.
2. Constitution stipulates how to deal with corrupt judges and DSS know that. Corrupt judges are first reported to NJC who will investigate and sack anyone culpable. Then EFCC or THE POLICE will prosecute them The constitution was clear about that so to maintain independence of the judiciary and avoid EXECUTIVE interference and undue influence of judicial outcomes. Even soldiers are not taken to civilian court without being court martialled by military tribunal. Even PMB knows that. NJC sacked about 3 judges a few weeks ago. They even recommended prosecution of the affected judges to their respective State Government. Nobody is supporting corrupt judges. Let APC not cajole any one into buying their executive recklessness. They want all judges to always rule every case to their favour.
NYSCRe: How NYSC Changed My View Of The North. by MRSALT: 4:43am On Oct 17, 2016
Fearcom:
The irony of the religious crisis in the north was triggered by an Igbo man:Major Nzeogwu who entered the house of the most revered leader of northern muslims saurdana of sokoto's palace, dragged him out and shot him like a dog during the first ever military coup. And the fool had the effrontery to take the picture of himself putting his boot on the dead man's face to The north hasn't recovered from that time: and they haven't forgotten either.
Diversionary. I hope you know history. There are about three religious or ethnic riots in the North before 1966. 1954, 1957 and 1963

Don't mind them.
In Lagos, as you said, if an Oba dies , people are advised to stay indoors to avoid stories that touch, yet they will not talk about that one.

Everybody cannot reason like you, and not every society is like the one you came from, that is why it is always better to conform reasonably when you are in any society.

I also blame many parents for instilling this bias in their children (especially ndigbo)
Thank God my parents were not like that, and I have gone to see for myself.
I don't like to argue for the sake of it. There should be exxhange of ideas in every argument. The point is not that south is good and north is bad. We are trying to highlight what is bad about the north. You can open a thread about what is bad about Lagos or Southwest. Do you know I stayed in a luxurious mansion in Kano abandoned by Lebanese due to incessant crisis in the north? Street urchins waking up and attacking innocent residents without tangible reason? If kano declare a certain day as the day of blood, believe me no one will fall a victim. We are pointing out this because no one ever get arrested or punished after every riot. If they are criminals like kidnappers, robbers or ritualists, their cup will get full one day. But some get promoted after religious riots in Kano. Lets keep saying it maybe this recent change being championed by Emir of Kano will bear fruit. Enough of religious riots in Kano and other Northern States.

TeamSimple:
MR SALT,there are bad eggs in every region. And i will confidently tell you that if you dont go against the laws of a northern state,you will never get into trouble. They will always want to get close to you coz they always believe they can learn from you.

Issue of killing is absolute in all states of the federation. Infact apart from BH terrorist act,we have got more crisis and bloodshed here in the south than in the north,except you wanna be myopic and subjective.

And average hausa man doesnt envy,he doesnt believe u any better than him,he goes about his life and takes it daily as it comes. Most times we the visitors are always the cause of whatever arises. Example in zaria,u are not allowed to urinate publicly while standing as a male coz some people carry out the act in an insanely manner. But my friend will alwys choose to stand while urinating just because he wants to test their patience. I warned him severally and they warned him until the day he was held and beaten mercilesly.
Issue of killing is not generally in all states. Please be objective. Even in the north, have you heard of religious riot in Jigawa? Call a spade a spade otherwise we will not be able to tackle our problem headlong. We know that there are cult clashes in dome states in SS. There are kidnappings in SE and there are ritual killings in some Southern States. But killings in the name of Religion in SOuthern States? No way. That is how to identify problems and seek for solution. Of recent is attack on Shiites. Soon, some one will come and defend such actions and tell us there are killings in all states.

[quote author=Darey00 post=50259736]The OP is very correct with this write up. Am serving in Katsina state and im loving it. What strikes me is that people can greet to a fault here. Anywhere we go we hear "Mallam good morning", mind u we rarely wear our NYSC clothing even when going to school, except on CDS days.
For bonus points just try learning the Hausa language and your rep will increase 100%. Just stay in your lane and respect yourself and u will be fine.

Northerners think differently from Southerners. Greetings from a southerner is like expression of love or acceptance. Greetings from Northerners are like a duty. Thesame poeple that greet you and hail you are thesame people that will come for your head when occasion calls. Southerners kill their perceived personal enemies but northerners kill the perceived enemies of Islam their personal friendship does not count.
NYSCRe: How NYSC Changed My View Of The North. by MRSALT: 10:05pm On Oct 16, 2016
Zamfara, Sokoto and Kebbi do not have violent street urchins like Kaduna, Kano, Bauchi and in recent times, Katsina. Your experience in Zamfara cannot account for all northern states. More so north is generally ok at peace time. But those that give you cold water are thesame people that will slit your throat in event of any crises. Many victims of northern madness thought that north was land flowing with honey, just like you. I know of one Ibo boy that returned from London to do his NYSC in Bauchi. He eulogised northerners better than you. His throat was later slit by thesame Almajiris that ran errand for him. I stayed in the north for 7 years travelling to about 12 states. I am giving you a real fact about the situation in the north.

PoliticsRe: Presidency: DSS Obtained Arrest Warrants For Arrested Judges, Warns Media On Ina by MRSALT: 10:48pm On Oct 09, 2016
Why has the presidency not obtain the search warrant of the judge who struck out the perjury case against the President? A man who hired 13 SANs to defend him in the court for being asked to show his certificate. Thesame certificate he swore an affidavit that it was with the Secretary of Nigerian army.
PoliticsRe: Is It Illegal For The DSS To Arrest Judges? by MRSALT: 3:41pm On Oct 08, 2016
Maduawuchukwu:
First and foremost, the DSS does not have the power to arrest based on charges of corruption; it is the job of the EFCC.
Secondly, whenever a Judge is accused of corruption, for the sake of the seperation of powers it is the duty of the NJC to investigate and if found erring sanction them as it was recently done.
From what we have seen which is a first in our nations democracy, this is a tactics to cripple judges not on the side of the ruling party and this is bad for democracy.
Spot on.After going through post, I didn't have any other point to add.

[quote author=TonyeBarcanista post=50026573]But you people always want Ijaw "militants" to challenge FG while you attach. You couldn't even dare FG and you claim to be brave.

FYI FG is granting Amnesty (settlement) to "Ijaw militants", FG is begging Ijaw militants to "negotiate" while brave IPOB is usually greeted with brutality and hostility.

As for Tompolo, he will sort himself out. But you should sympathise with Kanu.

PoliticsRe: Sack Abba Kyari, Others …90% Of Your aides’‘re Corrupt: APC Chieftain To Buhari by MRSALT: 4:40am On Oct 02, 2016
When they say GEJ caused the present recession, my question is who caused the last recession in 1984? Yesterday PMB announced that his administration saves $10 Billion annually from importation of petrol. Then I asked APC, if PMB saves such amount, how much was GEJ spending to subsidize fuel since petroleum was at all time high during his tenure? Then Min. of Fin. said they have cut out about 50000 ghost workers from their payroll. Yet this present govt want to borrow money to pay salary. I stand to be corrected, this present administration have excess money to loot more more than the previous govt.

So Op, u expect me to read this long story, abeg someone below should summarize it jare.. ...
What is there to summarize? Old story, Tinubu camp broke away from Presidency camp. This story of face off and fall apart started in 1960s. This is a clear evidence of a failure of a nation to learn from history to starting asking 'what is there for the future of my nation'? instead of 'what is there for me and my cabals'? The most annoying aspect of this national embarrassment is that some ignorant youths will celebrate this national disaster because it is APC while other unitelligent ones will support eithet Tinubu or the presidency. It is quite unfortunate.

First step is to impeach Buhari. Then the second step is to scrap the redundant Senate. The third step is to reduce the number of Members of House of Representatives to 109. The fourth step is to restructure Nigeria into six states. Take these bold steps, I bet you, Ghanaians will come back to serve Nigerians as they did in the early 80s

Please can Buhari supporters tell him that Nigerians are waiting for the take off of his economic plan. Whining over Jonathan poor performance will not improve the economic situation in the country. Afterall he is the direct beneficiary of GEJ failure. If Obama whined over Bush's poor performance, you think Americans would have voted him in for the second term? Enough said.

Consultants do not make inputs without formal request for their services. APC govt must accept that they need help to run the govt. Many economists are crying everyday because of crass ignorance of the present economic team to salvage the nation. Unfortunately PMB does not believe the need to put the nation above narrow interest. He sees many economists as enemies or what he called 5percenters. That is the beginning of the national woes.

I will only take them serious,when they take themselves serious,and I say this respectfully.

Do you think before you make comments? You don't take them serious but you always make comments on every topic concerning Ibos. Are you daft or something?
