Go and check, fuel pump price in Nigeria is always approximately equal to dollar exchange rate. So don't expect fuel pump price to crash.

Maazi Nnamdi KANU was bailed with that same condition. Atiku did not raise this objection. Lo, it is now the turn of Elrufai he is already complaining. Elrufai is a nigerian same as MKN. So he should meet the bail or remain in prison.

Tinubu, the OTP.

I'm talking about child abuse here, man.
A child has no agency of his or her own.
At least a woman can walk away if she's had enough. She's an adult.
But a child? C'mon man!!!

I'm very sure you won't stand by and let your wife brutalize a child for any reason. So I believe you're just joking.

No he will beat the wife is she insists. Or step out to report to the police and comeback probably seeing a dead child, with absconded wife. You argument doesn't hold at all and will never happen except when the man is proven to be an accomplice.

LeopardX:
I believe that husbands whose wives abuse domestic helps should also be arrested and investigated.
Too often, we hear terrible stories of children and domestic workers being tortured inside homes. Recently, reports emerged of a woman who allegedly poured hot water and candle wax on a young child in her care. Such cruelty and evil act does not usually happen in one minute or in complete secrecy. Someone in the house often sees the signs, hears the cries, or notices the injuries.

A husband should not be allowed to simply say, "I didn't know." If a child is being abused repeatedly in a home, every responsible adult in that home should answer questions from the police. If investigations show that the husband knew about the abuse, ignored it, encouraged it, or failed to report it, then he should face the law alongside his wife.

Children and domestic helps are human beings, for crying out loud. A home should be a place of safety, not a place of fear and torture. Holding all responsible adults accountable will help discourage abuse and protect vulnerable people.
Silence can sometimes be as dangerous as the abuse itself.

And since this issue is common place in our society today, there should be a law holding husbands of these women equally responsible for these crimes against children and domestic help.

What do you guys think?

I am sure you are female if not then know you sounded like one. Your submissio if full of sentiments, something with no legal value. Offenders take responsibility for their actions not the innocent.

He is not far from the truth. Even though I don't support Iran.
If they can't defend themselves in anyway, Israel and US would have won easily

I blame Trump who does not know he messed up by the ridiculous peace deal. In every statement of Iran they feel they defeated US and US is busy talking like a weakling. If Israel has military capacity like Israel by now there will no Islamic anything let alone islamic govt in Iran.

Terrorist under Tinubus regime has been emboldened the more. They now have communities they control. I'm sime terms they have govt and control. That was how it was in Afghanistan until now they have taken full control. Terrorist rule Afghanistan, Iran, Lebanon, Palestinians, Gaza and many others. They all began this simple way. Without God's intervention nigeria will be taken by islamic terrorists in no distant time.

Who can remember when this man was a Journalist. This is what Nigerian politics turns people without character, people principles, without conscience, no sympathy and no soul.

He is in the kitchen eating large quanties of corn provided by a faaaake certttifficcate hollldderr and lies about the realities facing ordinary Nigerians

This are the type of creatures who seek moral respect from thesame Nigerians whose faaak employer has put Nigerians in a dire and dangerous situation

That is the genesis of the problem. You called yourself a journalist with all his plan for his future and survival heaved on his employability. No single plan for entrepreneurship in his field of specialisation. Against his expectation he attained a height he never dreamed of. So the rule is do everything possible to retain the position as long as possible beam cause there is nothing to fall back to if the opportunity is taken.

CodeTemplar:
And Gaza elements mistakenly b^ked jewish babies i am guessing. If the UN cannot acknowledge the deeds of Gaza element against babies, then she can frame up these accusations against israel.

Exactly my opinion too. UN exposed who they really are with this frivolous and unintelligent analysis. Imagine UN findings sounding like a typical nigerian political propaganda. The world is gone oooo.

MrEar:
Several medical doctors came out to say that most of the children who were killed were shot in the head (headshot) with a sniper, indicating that the killing was Intentional. Surprising? Nahhhh!

We already knew before the UN inquiry or whistleblowing from doctors that the killing of children was indeed intentional because of this statement by Netanyahu on October 28 2023...

You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible - Netanyahu.

Read 1 Samuel 15:3 to see what the ancient nation of Israel did to the amalekites. It will make you understand that killing children (including infants) is like taking a walk in the park for Israel.

By the way, according to nairaland highly intelligent 5.0 cgpa first class Harvard trained professors of geopolitics, this news report proves that Reuters and the U.N are nothing but liars and terrorist sympathizers.

The same person who tools children and killed them in Oyo forest will stop at nothing to main and annihilate those they perceived as threat including killing children and heaving the accusation on the enemy feet. UN report alleged that heavy munitions with wide coverage were used in densely populated areas hence the death children but you, the notorious geopolitical analyst, forensic intelligence professor, alias terrorist sympathiser is here giving us new insight, ones not observed by poor UN.

MrEar:

I frown at any harm carried out on children in strongest terms. However, I have gone through this report with unbiased mind. I expected forensic analysis with compelling evidence. In bizarre disappointment, I saw a political hoax synonymous to a typical Nigeria's political gibberish and propaganda. Let us even screen some assertions of UN. UN insinuated that Israel used a high payload munitions with wide coverage effect in crowded areas because Israeli forces viewed all the population in those areas as Hamas and other armed terrorist associates. Meanwhile Israel had severally warned that Hamas were using human shield, something that Iran did during Israel/US war with them.
In my opinion UN has officially become a branch of China, Russia and all those who feel threatened by the West. UN with its army and all were dead silent throughout these escalations. UN never reacted about the unprovoked terror leached upon Israel on 7th October. UN maintained a deafening silence on that matter. Has UN officially joined those who support the preposterous ideology that Israel should not exist. If they do so they should state so and stop hiding under the table with their tails sticking out.

Jarret Tenebe has reacted to a viral photo making the rounds during the Ekiti Guber Poll. The Edo State APC Chairman was reportedly seen with an INEC-inscribed Observer Vest during the 2026 Ekiti Governorship Election.

His reaction in summary:
1 We have a conference of APC State Chairmen and we resolved months ago that during the off-cycle elections, we will support our brothers participating.

2. He affirmed he was in Ekiti during the election.

3. He also stated that the photo was Al-generated and planted in the media by the opposition. He was neither accredited in Ekiti or anywhere

4. He said AI will spoil a lot of things in the world.

5. He said he first saw the photo on Dino Melaye's page.

6. He said Dino is trying to get back at him because he sued him for singing the old National Anthem, which has been outlawed, during one of the Coalition's protests at the INEC HQs.

The Roadside Extortion: Official FRSC Offences and Fines Every Nigerian Driver Must Know

Good morning brethren, happy Sunday to you all.
Imagine handing an officer ₦50,000 at a checkpoint just to avoid a traffic ticket, only to later discover that the actual official fine for that offence was just ₦2,000.

One time the VIO told me I was driving without a razor blade in my first aid. I told them I didn't know and I'd buy it along the way but they insisted I settled them ₦10k or we go to the office. Yeah, they started preaching about the law being not emotional. They saw I was in a hurry and they wanted to reap where they didn't show.

Normally I don't stop for them on the road.. because there is a standing court order restricting them from being on the road..and if they disobey that, why would I obey them? But the congestion in the traffic was tortoise slow. Like the officer had to call his boss and the boss stood firm reiterating what they wanted. I asked how to pay and he told me he'll call a POS girl closeby..that they don't accept transfer. Lol. I firmly told him I wanted to pay the fine directly to the govt, and I have Remitta and en come bi like then everywhere got frozen. I saw the frowns on their face as I did it via Remitta.

Same thing with the Road Safety and the police. They will always threaten to take you to he office. Why are you scared to go!


Unfortunately, this is the bitter reality many Nigerian motorists face on our roads every single day. Countless drivers part with their hard-earned money at the roadside, not because the law requires it, but because they are completely unaware of what the law actually prescribes.

One of the greatest enablers of roadside extortion is ignorance. When you do not know the statutory penalties for traffic violations, you automatically become an easy target for intimidation, unlawful demands, and corrupt practices by rogue officers.

Let us be very clear: paying an unofficial “settlement” to avoid a traffic offence is itself unlawful. The proper course is to comply with lawful directives, insist on due process, and pay only the officially prescribed fines through the approved government channels.

Contrary to what many people believe, several traffic offences attract relatively modest penalties. Knowing these numbers empowers you to distinguish between lawful enforcement and outright highway robbery.

The Official FRSC Traffic Offences and Prescribed Penalties

Assaulting or Attempting to Corrupt a Marshal on Duty — ₦10,000
Operating a Vehicle with Forged Documents — ₦20,000

Dangerous Driving — ₦50,000

Kindly note:
This post is intended strictly to educate motorists on the officially prescribed penalties for traffic offences and to help them identify and resist unlawful roadside extortion. It should not be interpreted as a licence to violate traffic laws simply because the prescribed fines appear modest or cheap.

Every single traffic regulation exists to protect lives, maintain order on our roads, and promote public safety. The goal should never be to calculate the pocket-change cost of breaking the law, but to comply with it completely. The best way to avoid paying any fine remains simple: obey traffic rules.

So...
Know the law, obey the law, and reject extortion. An informed motorist is not only less vulnerable to exploitation by corrupt officers but also contributes directly to a safer, more law-abiding society.
Have you ever been cornered by officials demanding ridiculous amounts for a minor offence on this list? How did you handle it?

You did not add driving with expired document.

After school children were kidnapped in hundreds, civilian chased out of their land all tinibu could do was to send state Police bill to the Senate. See ineffectual president.

[b]Really? Like you are serious [/b]you don't know the USA and the UK created the present day Israeli and impose them on Palestine?
Read here https://www.britannica.com/summary/Israel
https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/May-14/state-of-israel-proclaimed
The British and the USA created the state of Israel inside the already Palestine, the good people of Palestine then happily accepted them cos then Palestine have Christians and Muslim ,they also have jews, There is more xtians i n Palestine than Israel.
Do you know they also tried to create Israel in Ethiopia but them guys said NO?

I asked you this question on purpose and I knew your response even before I asked it and you did not disappoint by giving me my expected reply. This is the impression carried by all islamic supporters of lebanon. Do you also know that UK created the current Nigeria, Ghana, even the USA? What the heck!!!!

Whatever you said above has nothing to do with Israeli occupation of Lebanon. All of us on earth are migrants from one place to another before the current arrangement of owning land and country. Or are you also not conversant with evolution of human society?

Back to the question I asked you. The current war in Lebanon was because Lebanese allowed the Iranian backed Palestian liberation organisation to occupy southern Lebanon and attack northern Israel, after expelsion of same PLO from Jordan. This led to Israel occupation of southern Lebanon is 1982 to protect themselves. It was at this time that Iran sponsored another group Hezbollah to oppose Israeli army's presence.
In the year 2000 Israel withdrew from Lebanon but just six year after Hezbollah crossed Lebanese border to capture two Israeli soldiers guarding their border. This led to 2006 Lebanese war with Israel.

Now the only argument Hezbollah and Lebanon has is that Israeli occupation is against the sovereignty. But they hide under the cover of sovereignty to invite and allow terrorists attack Israel right from their country. Israel cannot allow that and their occupation is for self defence and that is well justified.

I knew you was ignkrant to the root of this war but I just needed a lil more time to convince myself.Where U get this 72 virgin from I aint got a clue.I lIve and work in the UK a xtian and dont see how Tinibu rules me as I dont t earn under him nor pay tax or pension but ofcos just like others if you aint xtian in Nigeria then U muslim.U claim isreal has the right to defend itself.and also you think they must win cos of religion?

Let's stop lying to ourselves, that was the agreement and very clear. If you are insinuating that terms and conditions were not made clear from the start, you are insincere. What that woman did is not new, that's why men are advised to stop sponsoring ladies education

I don't know if there was any public verification that showed the lady had agreement with the guy to sponsor her in exchange for marrying the girl. But assuming that the girl had such agreement with the guy and finally broke the agreement, killing her is way and far too unacceptable. We have the court and in this matter I am sure with evidence the guy would win. There is no justification for taking another's life except when it is out of self defence.
How much is life and how much did he spend training her in school? Okay, after killing her has he recovered his money back? He has murder tendencies. I said it before and I want to repeat it; never give what you can't forfeit in relationship. He even killed, buried and demanded ₦3,000,000 ransom. That guy must rots in jail.

That is how you guys lie as commanded. Anyways, i am not surprised. Afterall you had inserted what I didn't write in my mention initially. That is the funny mandate you have. Meanwhile, why must you attack someone on the basis of his religion and not on the basis of facts? Lol, I am not surprised because tinubus supporters lack the knowledge of any subject they defend. They behave blindly without questions.
Israel has the right to defend themselves from terror and they are able, willing, ready and eager to do that. If your Hezbollah show face they will be sent to their 72 virgins, ASAP.

nairalanda1:
1. I doubt your house is representative of Nigeria

2. How can I support a tinubu whom I have just castigated for having no plan to deal with power beyond polemics? Dude, are you all right?

3. And yeah, I am voting tinubu out, and voting for Obi next year, despite my criticism of him.

4. Face the point of the article.

5. ELectricity is expensive. Whether we like it or not.

At least I have pushed you to set the record straight, stating where you stand.

Iran suffered casualties. But for the fact that the aim of the war, regime change was not achieved it is as good as loss. Then Trump threw up what is left of the war by the unwarranted ceasefire agreement.

nairalanda1:
So recently, Peter Obi made a comment that he was going to improve our power supply by 10000mw, which would take us up to 32000 mw...which should be enough for us to get light 24/7 (subject to the Siemens project working)...and the response was tinubu supporters making fun of Obi as a man without ideas, while Obi supporters praised their man as being wisdom incarnante.

Except that Obi did not tell us how he plans to do it.

Which essentially begs the question, how do we vote for a guy who promises us something, but does not tell us how to do it.

Which leads me back to Tinubu. IN 2023, tinubu said...if you vote me and I do not give you constant power supply, vote me out in 2027.

Naturally tinubu supporters were praising their man as being a tough minded leader, etc, etc....while Obi people are now calling in the receipts. Man has not done as promised so he should be kicked out.


Which leads me to my point.

Tinubu and obi never/have not told Nigerians how they intend to improve power supply.


The truth of the matter is, we have a plan, laid out by the experts, about power supply. A decent , strong plan....cost reflective tarrifs, ending power theft, and rolling out metering.

But neither tinubu nor obi, nor even atiku or any potential candidate would mention that because it does not win votes. (Sowore would probably announce a plan to give 24 hour light a day at N1 per kwh).


Nigerians , regardless of political party, like hearing populist language. If a leader came into office and started doing the things the experts have said we should do, he would be voted out. Or chased out. You will see the Fulani herdsmen marching with the Igbo farmer, the Yoruba trader marching with his Hausa counterpart, and there would be riots.


And the leader would be voted out.

That is why whoever takes office, won't be allowed to improve power because Nigerians think that electricity should be free of charge.

When in reality, it is not possible.

Electricity costs money. If you won;t pay for it in cost reflective tarrif, you will pay for it in generator and inverter monies. That is what Band A taught us.

And on that Band A, the idea of tinubu was not original. India has a similar system, present for decades, that commercial and industrial properties would pay a cost reflective tarrif and the profits would be used to pay for subsidising the poor farmers and rural people

And after doing that, has power supply in India improved? (No.).

Infact India is planning to make everyone pay cost reflective tarrfs in five years time.


SO, if it didn't work in India, how e go work in NIgeria?

The only way we can get free power is to take massive loans totalling nearly 2/3rd of our budgets for the next ten or more years...and while it may give us enough light, it would also put us in heavy debt for it.


In 2025, Prof Barth Nnaji, who is definetly not a Tinubu supporter put it well



SAUCE : LEADERSHIP NEWSPAPER


I have been saying the above for years, but people here abuse me, so I may as well quote the actual expert, who is a qualified engineer, a former ministar of power, and an owner of a GENCO.

And he is not the first or the last to state that this needs to be done. PwC have said it, several experts have been saying it, a BBC report said it, and so forth.

Yet, Nigerians and their candidates choose to believe the fiction of corruption or some evil Western zionist overmind does not want to give us light.

It is easier to believe conspiracy theory fiction

Like NIgerians, like candidates.


Good afternoon.

I expcet to be abused and to be told about other countries that somehow magically give free power(the macs won't add that those countries pay for it with heavy taxes, or heavy debt).

I don't know where you got the assersio that nigerian see energy as a free stuff. We pay heavily for electricity. In fact I pay an average of 35k monthly on electricity. That is for my household only. So how is it free? Please stop giving us misleading topic to support your tinubu covertly. PO said he would improve power and that he would do using the revenue from the sector. Tinubu had increased electricity bill to 10time, yet nothing to show for it. Tinubu can't fix any single thing in nigeria.

I shall be relaocsting to Dublin. Ireland is favourable to my people. All my friends there are actually thankful they made the decision.
