He actually means don't shoot at them because they are muslims carrying out jihad which is holy war that all muslims are bound to support. You see why NSA Nuhu Ribadu said that these terrorists are his brothers. And some people are still denying that there is state sponsored genocide against Christians in Nigeria

Seriously he didn't say anytime wrong

He didn't mean any harm

saintokwuluora:
And you are recruiting young men to go to their certain death...Nigeria is not a nation.

No let'sbe sincere there is absolutely nothing wrong in what he said

Sonnobax15:

I only pity my Southern brothers who are giving themselves out as bush meats to their northern commanders all in the name of enlisting into the Nigerian army.

givedemwotowoto:
Nigeria is in deep shiii****

For the Record: Nigeria’s Democracy is Facing Imminent Collapse

Nothing wrong in what he said if you actually watched the video

It is not wike's prerogative as an executive to dash judges gift...abi you no do government for school ni

Cherrybae:
So because they are judges they should keep living in rented apartments.

Sowore should go to he'll.

God bless wike

You sound ignorant

akpumping7720:
So naaa Wike use his own money to build the judges' quarters or tax payers money? Dis guy dey zuzuuu

Richtaiwo:
So, because judges are provided with official residences befitting their status, they should stop being judges?

Does Sowore understand that the judiciary is a coequal arm of government? While the heads of the executive and legislature live in official mansions, head of the judiciary should live in 1 room apartments?

Even if previous administrations neglected the welfare of the judiciary, the current administration appears to be addressing it. Criticism should be guided by reason, not a show of madness.

Mr man no be everything be politics ok...the judiciary is an independent arm of government and it has budgetary allocation inherent in the constitution

WizardOfNG:
I agree with everything you are saying but that is for us Nigerians to focus on and demand action over.

When we begin to look for foreign saviours, out of desperation and the belief "Oyinbo" is superior and always right, we exposed ourselves to being used by miscreants and opportunists like "Mike Arnold", a 'ghost' with no history as many white predators in Africa are, who understand they have a unique window of opportunity to scam and abuse us because we worship and trust their white skin and Western background.

I am particularly passionate about this topic because I have lived in the West majority of my life to know their is nothing as silly in life as the belief of unexposed Nigerians and Africans that white folks are naturally virtuous and intrinsically good.

We have many criminal and deviant white people in Africa today perpetrating all manners of heinous crime, against vulnerable and unprotected children even, because of the gullibility of Africans who confer exalted status on them without even a desire to establish who they are are what their intentions are.

I know what I am talking about. People like "Mike Arnold" are dangerous predators Africans should be checking and protecting their people against and not making infallible messiahs because they pretend they care about us and are white.

We should develop the bravery and focus to tackle our leaders to deliver solutions to our problems. We must not empower foreign opportunist, with hidden agendas, who believe Africans are gullible and to be exploited in ways they would not try where they are coming from.

What is revealed below is sadly a common and big reality of Africa many are not aware of. The article below is all the way back from 2004.

What do you think the status quo is today vis a vis what the likes of unregulated "Mike Arnold" are getting away with? Read the full article using the link.

The fact is to leave the messenger and focus on the message

WizardOfNG:
Of course not. Yet, are you not ashamed we cannot speak or act for ourselves and we now have to crown a man with white skin our messiah because he is saying the obvious even as everything about him screams hidden and malevolent agenda?

Where did he come from and what is his connection with us to the extent he is now solely and exclusively focused on the affairs of Nigeria?

He insults our leader and talks in ways showing he has disdain for Africans and their democratic choices with talks like "Trump is coming to nuke Nigeria" etc.

I have witnessed such talks many times, haven lived in the West most of my life, to know it is the utterance of vile racists who have no respect for black skin and believe we are dullards to be manipulated and controlled by white folks.

Look bro, the whole thing is disgusting and marks us as barely more evolved than our forefathers spirited away as slaves by the forefathers of "Mike Arnold".

At least our forefathers taken as slaves can cite illiteracy as complicit in their fate.

What is your excuse and mine when we are allowing the likes of "Mike Arnold" perpetrate second age slavery on us when we should now be educated, analytical and focused enough to handle our own problems without looking for white and foreign messiahs to crown as our Christ-like saviours?

Dude is a confirmed fraud for God sake. How can you not be ashamed a glorified white Yahoo boy is running rings around you?

Yes because not everything should be politics imagine playing politics with people's lives....wil it take forever for you to nip it in the bud and if you're not ready to tackle it head on let people who are ready tackle it okay....if you can't use the isreal and American template of decimating and obliterating instead of futile dialogue and fruitless ransome payments

WizardOfNG:
Lol. The "whites always know more" ba? What an ignorant and self-hating comment.

Maybe some of them, like "Mike Arnold" are just manipulative, in Machiavellian pursuit of what they want, to the extent they always settle on deceiving Africans they believe are dullardly simpletons worshipful of their white skin and willing to see them as messiahs as you have proven with your post.

I am just so amazed how you people believe "white people" are the personification of superiority and virtue whereas some of us have lived with them decades understand many Nigerians, like you, are simply suffering from hideous lack of exposure.

Have you wondered how "Mike Arnold", of no verifiable history, emerged "mayor of Blanco" Texas of 2000 people to leave the position after two years and then be completely obsessed about Nigeria to the extent he speaks of no other nation or leaders than Nigeria and her leaders respectively?

Blanco and the USA does not need him but Nigeria does because he is your 'Oyinbo' messiah' and virtuous Saint abi ?

Are you now saying there are no jihadist killers

Because they are "moderate", was that why they allow US military bases in their Countries, Is that why they cannot speak up against US Isreal oppression in Palestine, Sudan etc

We can always discuss without verbal insults bro

Hamas bit more than they can chew same with hezebila...they don't value humanity hence why they use humans as shield or what is.the rationale behind building missile launch pads and tunnels in hospitals and schools...that's how terrorists operates...please I was born a moslem so use moderate Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, Jordan etc as templates and not rogue terrorists refimes like Iran and Yemen okay

Some of you just comment because of your hatred for Islam, you are mostly comfortable ass licking your oppressors. See una life?

Even when you know that what US Israel did to Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Gaza, Venezuela is injustice, you continue to praise your oppressors, its not same story this time, sorry..

Positive negotiations were ongoing but US chose to strike and kill more than 100 school girls and you think Iran will find it amusing....e be like say Iran just dey start sef

Mugu is Iran the only Islamic country? There are moderate moslems in Saudi Arabia, UAE etc so don't talk about Iranian terrorists

Cromagnon:
Simple question you begin de rigmarole
Are you doing business or welfare

Corruption fighting back

Thats corruptionfightingback

nairalanda1:
Sadly it doesn't work that way

Innovation costs money.

Also, your business has to make a profit. Whether Nigerians suffer or not is irrelevant sadly. If the business is.not making enough profit, you can't pay staff, you can't pay for maintenance and you can't pay for upgrades and even tax.

The thing is happening in the power sector where government forcing power companies to charge cheap prices is causing many of them to sack workers because money is not there to pay them, and government is not paying their salaries for them.

Life no be easy at all.

Cromagnon:
Do you use your business for Nigerians welfare?

You are not just all about business but also about the welfare of your people

I

nairalanda1:
So if you were running a business, would you let Nigerians set your prices or would you set the prices that enable you to pay taxes and meet your daily needs and replenish stocks among other things?

That is where innovation comes in...if Nigerians have to suffer because you are making business then you are not innovative even with the fiat you have

lawani:
It does not help business at all. Business should be separated from all that. No need for subsidies better ask for salary increase

You can't be using Nigerians welfare to make your business naw...nobody is saying you shouldn't prosper but not at the detriment of Nigerians naw abi can't we have local or modular refineries to cater for our local needs ni abi Nigerians too are your business partners....this is all about innovation

lawani:
If you are in business, do you sell lower to your friends and family members? Then a large portion of Nigerian crude is already pledged to pay debts. Also, if you sell lower to Dangote, that is going back to subsidy again and I personally don't support that. I believe and hope hostilities in the middle east will soon end because I read American analysts on Quora saying if Iran actually closes the strait of Hormuz then it can't be reopened in less than three to seven years and pms price will at least double

You can't compare business with what what you own.....what you are buying with money is business while crude is what we own so there is no conspiracy theory that you will spin that will add up

E-Hailing Drivers Decry Low Earnings, Accuse Ride-Hailing Firms of Exploitation
By Ijeomah Daniel Uche (Danbaba)
Lagos
Drivers under the umbrella of the Amalgamated Union of App-Based Transporters of Nigeria (AUATON) have raised fresh concerns over what they describe as exploitative fare structures imposed by ride-hailing companies operating in Nigeria.
The union’s Lagos State Financial Secretary, Ijeomah Daniel Uche, popularly known as Danbaba, issued a strong response following recent claims by Bolt that drivers retain over 75 per cent of trip fares on its platform.
According to the union, the company’s public defence fails to reflect the harsh economic realities facing drivers in Lagos and across the country.
Commission Versus Reality
Bolt had maintained that drivers earn more than 75 per cent of a typical ₦5,000 trip fare, suggesting that its commission model remains fair. However, AUATON argues that such figures do not account for operational expenses that drastically reduce drivers’ take-home income.
The union noted that beyond platform commissions — which range between 27 and 38 per cent when taxes and booking fees are included — drivers must independently cover fuel, vehicle maintenance, mobile data, feeding, and other daily expenses.
Using an estimated gross daily earning of ₦60,000 after at least 12 hours of work, AUATON provided the following breakdown:
Commission (27%): ₦16,200
Fuel (28–30 litres daily): ₦25,000
Feeding: ₦4,500
Miscellaneous expenses: ₦2,000
Vehicle remittance to owners: ₦10,000
This brings total daily operating costs to approximately ₦57,700, leaving a net income of about ₦2,300 per day.
Vehicle Ownership Burden
The union further revealed that nearly 90 per cent of drivers do not own the vehicles they operate. Many work under fleet owners or car partners, remitting as much as ₦60,000 weekly, regardless of daily earnings.
“These financial obligations do not fluctuate with economic realities,” the statement noted, adding that rising fuel prices and inflation have compounded drivers’ hardship.
Safety Concerns
AUATON warned that low earnings are forcing many drivers to work up to 15 hours daily to break even, increasing fatigue and the risk of road accidents.
The union also cited frequent levies and alleged harassment by local enforcement agencies and other actors, describing such charges as unpredictable and unavoidable.
Call for Industry Reform
While acknowledging the right of companies like Uber, Bolt, and InDrive to operate profitably, AUATON called for:
Reduced commission rates during periods of economic hardship
Fare structures reflecting inflation and operational realities
Transparent engagement with driver representatives
Policies limiting excessive working hours
“A sustainable ride-hailing industry cannot exist where drivers shoulder nearly all the economic risks while platforms maintain fixed commissions,” the statement read.
Appeal for Dialogue
The union urged ride-hailing firms to move beyond public relations statements and engage directly with driver representatives to review commission models and fare structures.
“True sustainability means drivers earn decent, livable incomes without debt, exhaustion, or exploitation,” the statement concluded.
AUATON called on drivers nationwide to unite in advocating for reforms aimed at restoring dignity and viability to the e-hailing sector.
