This is bad but even if prosecuted, I don’t see him going to jail.

There’s no offence against having bags of money inside the boot. The police must tie that money with vote buying and prove his intent before the court.

It’s tough to prove.

Do you approved of illegal immigrants( with criminal records)
It is not about me or anyone else but the position of the law.

Illegal immigrants with criminal records could not just be rounded up and deported. There are laid down procedure that has to be followed which will cost the US govt lot of money.

The ICE budget is no where near what Trump is proposing. You will see his policies bogged down in legal challenges.

Does the US constitution allows illegal immigrants(with criminal records). Trump is pushing for a tougher approach on illegal immigration, becos of the his chance that these unauthorized immigrants with criminal records.

what has "separates monarchy system from democracy" got to do with illegal immigration in the US undecided
Be well informed.

It is the work of the immigration courts to determine who to deport. It is not through the pronouncement of made by the president. That is how the law works.

To deport each person, as at 2016, the cost of arrest, detention, processing and deportation for a person would cost 12,000 US Dollars. Do the maths with millions that Trump is aiming for. Who will fund it? What is the capacity of ICE which currently has a workforce of 20, 000 personnel. What will Trump do to Sanctuary cities?

Trump knows he couldn’t achieve it, just blabbing.

If all nurses leave Nigeria, who will be treating the sick in Nigeria.

Instead of him to keep pushing for a good environment, and nice working conditions with good pay for the nurses, so that they won't have any reason to leave, he opens his mouth carelessly to encourage them to relocate.

So, this is the thinking of a man that wants to be a Nigeria President. It can never happen.

PropertiesRe: Man Cries Out For Help After "Omo Onile" Demolishes His Property In Ibadan(photo by MT:
The govt has closed eyes into this menace of “omo onile” for long. You would pay for land and for every stage you want to do anything on the land, they would be demanding more money and govt and society have both accepted this as the norm.

The govt needs to enact strong policy. If there is an issue, they should come to arbitration. Anyone that takes law into his hands should speedily be sent to life imprisonment. We need a strong deterrent here. People are always afraid to buy lands due to fear of things like this. This is so crude.

Normally the guy should be able to tell either the senator or house of rep or chairman representing that area to further his course but those ones don’t even know why they were voted into position.

May many of you not die of foolishness.
So after that with Trump not being president for 4 years you think Iran is foolish to want to kill him now that he as additional security as president elect.

Many of your foolish head n how you argue out of bigotry deserve to be beaten severely.




Your own head is filled with sawdust Iran is a Muslim n want to kill anyone but you are too foolish to mention a single country Iran wage war against.

Saudi Arabi
Qatar
Kuwait
Indonesia are all not Muslim countries. Dead brain idiot like you are reason why one should be careful with irredeemable bigoted fanatical Christians. Iran is the evil yet your Israel n USA destroyed Iraq Libya only to wake with Iran as the next evil. May you not perish from extreme foolishness that as ruined your thinking faculty completely.
You typed like a fool.

Someone asked why Iran wanted to kill Trump and I explained to him it was because Trump ordered the killing of General Solemani, and they wanted to avenge his death.

You jumped on the thread, foaming in the mouth like someone struck with leprosy. You are deficient in comprehension.

You should have sent an email to the Consumer Protection Department, Central Bank of Nigeria - cpd@cbn.gov.ng. That will settle it asap.

It is your hard earned money. Do not dash them, even if it was 5 years, once you could remember the date of the transaction, that settles it.

I had two failed POS N5,000 transactions in October 2023. I lodged an online complaint but Standard Chartered Bank kept posting me. From January 2024, I started calling their Customer Service aggressively. Their reps will be answering me with strange Indian accent (I didn't understand half of what they said most of the time). And before they even deal with your issue, they'll be asking you annoying questions to verify my identity 😠

Sha, in April 2024, they refunded me N5,000. When I asked them about the other N5,000, they closed the email thread without answering me. I sent another email complaining. Got a vague response, and this is November 2024, still no positive response - I guess that N5,000 was added to their 2024 profits already . . .

I moved all my money from there and have effectively dumped the account.

If I can be treated like this for failed transaction of just N10,000, I imagine what would happen if a higher amount was involved 😞💔💔💔
You can still get your refund back, without breaking a sweat, if you are willing.

It takes just an email.

So, let me advise you. I have an idea of how you are feeling but cannot feel it like you do I will advise you keep your job, still continue to earn the little salary while you keep learning software development and aggressively searching for a new job.

Web development won't fetch you much or give you good employment. You need to understand how to build enterprise application in a team. It takes time and requires a different skill sets.

You can shine more lights on the specific skills you currently possess but if it's about just using template to design a website, that's a rabbit hole.

Electoral college use popular votes and spread. U win the state and get the state electoral college vote. In other words, u can win majority (population votes) and still lose (spread).. electoral college prevent a region with high population from controlling who gets into power.
Other develop country use almost similar but via parliament. Populist votes works mostly when the country don't have divergent views and ethnicity.
You do not need to explain electoral college to me. I am an american.

Do you want to dispute the fact that electoral college vote does not give individual's vote same weight and value, as citizens?
Foreign AffairsHow Will The World See The US After Donald Trump Victory ? by MT(op): 11:52am On Nov 06, 2024
Donald Trump is very flawed in every area. He is a misogynist. He led insurrection that almost overran the Capitol.

A convicted felon is about to occupy the highest seat in the US.

US allies do not want him. US pushed Ukraine to the war and now will be abandoned in the middle of it with Trump at the saddle - Ukraine beautiful cities, men, women and even land are all gone for nothing.

How will the world see the US after this episode?

Will the US has the moral compass to complain if other countries put an insurrectionist and a convicted felon into the highest seat in the land?

There will certainly be a lasting, negative effect on the US regarding this. US has made democracy a joke.

I’m glad we’re agreeing he made unwholesome promises to gain following from extremists. So our concern wasn’t unfounded then was it?

Are you guys at least willing to admit that much?

As far as what would be the moral or legal justification?

If they have something personal to benefit from letting him do as he pleases, I’m not confident they will stand for what’s right.

That black man (Marcellus) who was executed around last month or so had the whole world come together even the prosecutor that initially tried and jailed him joined forces to plead for his release. They came forward with new evidence that exonerated him. The case made its way all the way to the Supreme Court and all the republican judges on there voted to have him killed.

I have no confidence in them doing the right thing when there’s an alternative that benefits them personally

.
True. I agree with your position on this.

They can always find a way to achieve their aims.

You know I disagree with you a lot but I’m praying fervently that you’re right this time and I’m wrong.

The legal challenges he’ll face in trying to enact those strategies can go all the way to the Supreme Court and you know he’ll pack the court to vote in his favor.

I hope you’re right
Yes we have a lot of different perspectives but no supreme court judge will allow the POTUS to operate a Nazi stye concentration camp on US soil.

What will be the moral & legal justification ? and the world standing of the US?

Some of his promises are just for campaign, executions of them are fraught with lot of challenges.
