One of the revelations is that four of them have been identified as Ilaje, a
development that corroborates claims from certain quarters that the
gunmen were not from any particular ethnic group.

@the bolded.....can we see is not just ijaw but yoruba indigenes are very much involved

Gift ke? That would be the beginning of blackmail. He should just play dumb as if nothing happened, while being friendly at the same time. If the man brings up the issue, he should deny outrightly since there is no evidence.

exactly and well spoken..mrferrari dont give the man any damn gift as that will be the beginning of any possible blackmail..

he has no evidence so act like nothing happened

the only visible achievement of emefiele that i can relate to
kudos

NkayTiana:
How can one post stories please

depending on the section u want to create....lets use politics section as an example


click on politics...then go to ur right top on the screen and u will see 'create topic'...click on it and u are good to go

only southeast was not mentioned as one of the regions NAF is not conducting operations

nice to note

how can he resign?

Nigerian politicians dont easily resign na unless wen forced to...am sure he wont


the truth is that no Nigerian politician is without a mess....even Gbajabiamila is involved.

am sure if buhari is probed now he will have several dirty deals he has done


imagine some weeks past, Dogara himself told us PDP now hides money in farms


what a shame that those who live in glass houses now trow stones


as for PDP,they were corrupt and we all knew it but APC behaves and talks as if they're saints but they're more dangerous than Lucifer...filled with lies and propaganda...there is no solution to Nigeria's woes if am to be honest...

but the good thing is that most Nigerians who will go to hell wont find it had to adapt bc Nigeria is already a semi-hell where ppl are practising on hw to live in penury, bitterness, ethnic divide, hate and where lack of human survival instinct has been replaced with partisan differences by tribe, religion and the youths of Nairaland who fan the embers of this hatred are far irredeemable.

In all, only fate can turn Nigeria on the good side

let me stop here

Standing5:
While I admire your courage to go into farming against societal norm, I must admit I don't see myself doing this.

lazy ass!

tdayof:
NOPE. That is not possible.

ask bayelsans and deltans they will tell u better

i have read several news on this nairaland about some people praising Nigeria
army for shelling militant targets in ogun/lagos.But truth be told, some
militants will be killed but a huge number of indigenes will go in for it.
while i may be neutral on issues bw FG and militants bc of obvious dirty
politics that runs in Nigeria..i want to also caution us on the things we should
actually rejoice for.Fact is that since humans were given different languages,
religion and culture it will be very difficult for us to unite...
for instance there is virtually no presence of boko haram rhetorics bc a
northerner is there, and if i may ask where is Shekau?
same goes for militants who were hitherto not there during gej era ...
rather than fan the embers of tribalism lets unite and make Nigeria great just
like the very much diverse America.
shalom!

thats a fair deal....i think avengers should also key in and brace this opportunity to end hostilities once and for all..

nice compromise from Nigerian government

shamecurls:
Talking about a dwindling economy without criticizing the root cause is just gibberish to me.


What policy do you expect to work when some people re applauding militants, without considering the effect on the economy.

You cant give what you don't have.

Mr man that is no excuse...the first function of any government is security

may be u are also indirectly telling us that buhari not only failed in economic aspect but on security

“ When the dust settles, Nigerians will see clearly that this charge (trial) is
nothing but a meretricious trash”. - Sen. Ekweremadu
I felt so sad, betrayed, and angry with myself as I read comments by the
spokesperson of the Senate Unity Forum, Senator Kabiru Marafa, after a closed-
door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday 21st July 2016.
They fooled me and us again, I said to myself.
The Senate
Asked by State House Correspondents if the charges against Saraki and
Ekweremadu could be dropped now that the Senate President has yielded to
their demands for “juicy” Standing Committees, Marafa said: “Yes, as long as
the party comes in and the will of the party is respected.
We are not at loggerheads with anybody. It is not like we hate somebody. The
current Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has been one of my very close friends
and senior in the 7th assembly. What you saw happen is what I will describe as
loyalty to the party. The constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
recognizes only the party, it doesn’t recognize any individual.
“We didn’t go to court because we didn’t like the faces of those that emerged,
but this is the will of our party. During the 7th assembly, we accorded the
ruling party at that time the utmost cooperation and we knew the committees
that we were given that time. But now, we are in power it is our own time and
we should be accorded all the necessary cooperation. We should be seen to
respect the party. If the party says withdraw the case, we will go on to
withdraw the case”.
I even felt more aggrieved when a former neighbour in Lagos who now lives on
the same street with Senator Marafa in Abuja told me that Marafa even threw
an in-house party to celebrate his landing of the Senate Committee on
Petroleum (Downstream), considered by the Unity Forum to be very “juicy”.
Although many Nigerians asked, at the inception of Saraki’s trial, that could he
have been arraigned if he had allowed the big heads in his party and presidency
to have their way in the choice of Presiding Officers and Principal Officers of the
Senate? But my attitude was that Nigerians had suffered enough in the hands
of their so-called leaders. As such, whatever soul that sinned or whoever ate
pour yam, must face the law.
Sadly, the wailers and their ranks, which are now growing by the day, now
laugh last. It is not about the ordinary Nigerian or about democracy, after all. I
mean, to take the whole nation for a long, noisy, windy circus for 14 out of the
48 months of the first (and I pray the last) term of office by this administration,
in the face of excruciating economic pains, merely for power sharing and
profiteering, is just too ridiculous and atrocious for a party that soared to power
on the wings of “change”.
Regarding the Senate forgery, however, I must admit that I was never really
convinced that the invitation/petitioning of the police (an executive agency) by
the Senate Unity Forum enjoys the blessing of the constitution because it was
just some Senators inviting the police, rather than the Senate as an institution.
Justice Gabriel Kolawole’s ruling sometime last year that the issue of Senate
Standing Order is purely a domestic legislative affair was later to reaffirm my
opinion.
He went further to say that the option open to members aggrieved by any
breach of its Rules or wrong decision was to muster the number to reverse such
decision on the floor or cause the Senate to direct its Committee on Ethics and
Privileges to investigate the matter, after which the Senate as a body would
decide whether or not to invite the police and/or discipline any erring members.
But were we not so narrow-minded not to have known before now that we
were being fooled and that the whole shenanigan and grandstanding in the
Senate was about Committees? It is now that I recall clearly that members of
Unity Forum, the plaintiffs in suit FHC/ABJ/CS/651/2015 contesting the
authenticity of the Senate Standing Rule 2015, approached the Federal High
Court with an ex-parte application seeking to restrain the Senate leadership
from constituting the Chairman and Deputy Chairmen of Standing and Ad Hoc
Committees pending the hearing and determination of the Motion on Notice” .
In refusing the application, however, Justice Kolawole, insisted that he did not
“notice any substantial infraction on the 1999 Constitution”.
According to him, “The court is not created to supervise the National Assembly
in its activities, but can only intervene where there is substantial infraction on
the constitution; where the NASS as the legislative arm of government is
alleged to have contravened its own rules, the court as the third arm of
government should be wary so as not to be seen as hijacking the powers of the
NASS in handling its affairs; Members of the NASS should be trusted to be able
to mobilise themselves to address issues on the floor”.
Now, relating Senator Marafa’s comments and the recent statement by the APC
National Chairman, John Oyegun, that “we all find it very, very difficult to
accept the emergence of a PDP person as his Deputy Senate President” (even
though the APC enjoyed and praised bi-partisan National Assembly leadership
under Hon. Aminu Tambuwal and also produced the current Speakers of Plateau
and Benue Assemblies where their party is minority), one begins to understand
APC’s hypocrisy. What is more, only a few days ago, the APC again produced
the Speaker of Kogi State House of Assembly where PDP is the majority. A
long-frustrated and embattled Alhaji Momoh-Jimoh Lawal of the G-15 threw in
the towel, while Umar Imam of G-5 was “elected” Speaker.
Much as these serial hypocrisy is condemnable, it nevertheless helps Nigerians
to see more clearly why the Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the
Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami, a former legal counsel to the Senate Unity
Forum, acted in a manner, which Justice Kolawole considered a “gross abuse of
legal process”, “in a desperate haste”, and “not in public interests” in arraigning
Saraki and Ekweremadu.
According to the Honourable Justice, “the said criminal charge dated 10/6/16
and attached as exhibit “B” to the Plaintiff’s ‘motion ex parte’ dated 23/6/16,
given the course of these proceedings as I had in detail, highlighted, can only be
seen as one that constitutes an ‘abuse of legal process’ to use the very words
in section 174(3) of the constitution”.
He lamented that whereas the AGF, by virtue of the Constitution, is compelled
to stop any such abuse of legal process, “The converse situation, which the
drafters of the constitution, perhaps never envisaged appears to have occurred
in this case as the 2nd defendant (AGF) who is required, by Section 174(3) of
the Constitution, to ‘discontinue at any stage before judgment is delivered any
such criminal proceedings instituted or undertaken by him or any other authority
or person’ where such proceedings constitute ‘abuse of legal process’, is in fact
the very person who initiated a criminal proceedings in a matter in which he
had, as a private legal practitioner, acted for the one of the ‘interested’ Senators
who had petitioned the 1st defendant (Inspector-General of Police) on 30/6/15".
In summary, it is not about us, after all, but about elites’ selfish interest. This is
another hope ruthlessly betrayed. In saner climes, heads would be rolling by
now, starting with that of the AGF. Of all people on earth, Nigerians are to be
pitied most. What a meretricious trash. Apologies, Ekweremadu.

@MURPHYIBIAM15 what else do you wanna know. My best man said this while we were having a serious issue and he made that statement without details. i got home and my wife confirmed it, it was 7 months before we got married, i was out of town for bussiness for 5 weeks and this shit happened. And since then i just got to know. isn't this cray?

now you've come with the actual details i meant...thats to say this actually happened wen u were dating her and planing for the marriage..and your wife has even confirmed it.....truth is that he might have been sleeping with ur wife all the while wen u weren't around and even now u are married with her.

is so crazy..but then how many child(ren) has she given u?

meekyrozzay:

Basilsekav:
so are you guys telling me now that PDP no longer adhere to court rulings? Had it been it's Buhari or Efcc you guys could have said it's impunity to ignore court ruling. Anyway how market?

calm down bros...no need to be sentimental..a contemporary high court which has the same jurisdiction as justice okon Abang's court in Abuja ; Lagos and PH had already given injunction that sheriff no longer be the PDP chairman and thats the judgment PDP is relying on...remember the Nigerian judicial council had already said for a case already entertained by court of equal jurisdiction , no other court with same powers should hear the same case....thats exactly what happened.

so what PDP just need to do is apply for stay of execution and then appeal the case...

Have little shame please. Did they contest under pdp in the last concluded election? When they decamped with large no of followers, you chanted their praise and anointed them saints but today you remember they used to be pdp. Point of correction, everybody has a history. Even buhari did not start with apc yet no certificate upp till the present. Does that make him less apc?

good analysis/question

laksides:
Even Senate president will fail this test also

the senate president is a medical doctor, so he's well educated to know it....talk about ur president, the commander in chief of daura,the only president without waec certificate, sure-bet he will fail it
