OdumegwuOjukwu, fx45, Oharina, JoeEeL ( my regular entertainer), Rugaria, ZombieSlaughter, UselessBuhari and co, I want to thank you for the early morning entertainment. It was a good way to recover from my exercise. I only read posts from people like you when I want to laugh. I now have important things to attend to, so goodbye, I am not going to read your posts any more.
I'll call you the next time I need to relax (well, some of you like UselessBuhari are too boring, so I won't call you, but JoeEeL is always good for a laugh).
The Autopiloters still haven't realised that this joke is now stale and boring. They need to be creative and come up with a new excuse. Everybody can see through the old lie.
naptu2: They will say that they are going to do something. They will do what they say that they are going to do. They will boast and celebrate after successfully doing what they say they will do. Then, if there is a negative reaction, they will claim that it was done by Fulani herdsmen and DSS.
OdumegwuOjukwu: I can bet my left ball that twitter is awash with tonnes of comments like this. Even Uwazurike is not perturbed by such.
But trust government agents and bearers of ill wills to megaphone it.
Funny enough, I get most of my Simon Ekpa posts through this poster. I sometimes wonder who he works for. Again DSS readily comes to mind. He might even be working for Simon Ekpa, who knows. Truth is the first casualty in conflicts.
Oh my God! How could you fail to include the fact that I work for OdumegwuOjukwu??
Rugaria: Why are you crying more than the bereaved? We owe you no explanations as to how we deal with perennial idiots in our land. . What's your fixation on Igboland? Uwazurike led hundreds of Igbo youths to their early graves and is now supporting what he fought against that caused these deaths. Why are you more concerned with what happens to uwazurike and not worried with what happened to the hundreds who died under his command?
This is Nairaland where I am free to write about what ever I want to write about. Trying to tell me what to write about is a complete waste of time. I have always written about what interests me and I will always write about what interests me and there's absolutely nothing you can do about that except to waste time creating meaningless posts.
ZombieSlaughter: Yes. suddenly is now your darling mr yoruba muslim. I guess he is now greater than Awo and MKO after you mocked his group whenever they get killed or arrested as 'useless ultimatum givers' pre-2015.
1) What's my business with Awolowo and MKO?
2) Can you please show me where I mocked any group that got killed.
You see, the reason that I don't take some people on this site serious is because it seems as if all they do is just string words together. The words have no meaning and make no sense. It's like saying, "Everybody is putting words together, so I will also put words together, even if they have no meaning. At least let me be among them".
There seems to be a pattern. Ralph Uwazurike created MASSOB. He claims that he hired Nnamdi Kanu to run his radio station BIAFRA: Uwazurike Tackles Nnamdi Kanu. Nnamdi Kanu broke away and created IPOB.
Nnamdi Kanu is the founder of Ipob. He hired Simon Ekpa to run Radio Biafra after he was arrested Simon Ekpa: Biography Of The New Director Of Radio Biafra. Simon Ekpa broke away from the original faction of Ipob and created his own faction, the Autopiloters.
Chief Ralph Uwazuruike is the leader of the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) which campaigned for the independence of Biafra in the early 2000s. He recently endorsed the Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, for the presidency of Nigeria. See previous thread here 2023: I’ll Support Yahaya Bello, I Don’t Believe In Igbo Presidency – Uwazuruike
This is Simon Ekpa's response to that endorsement.
Simon Ekpa @simon_ekpa
Uwazuruike after killing Biafra youth through agitation for Biafra is now supporting a Kogi State Governor for Nigeria president, abandoning all the so called Igbo leaders that are coming out. With this action of Uwazuruike, he is not suppose to walk freely in Biafra soil.

Met Police officer given final warning for appearing on Nigeria's Big Brother
PC Khafilat Kareem featured as a contestant on the reality TV show despite being told by the force it was "not in the best interest for either her or the Metropolitan Police Service to take part".
A Metropolitan Police officer has been given a final written warning after she appeared on Nigeria's version of Big Brother without permission.
PC Khafilat Kareem requested unpaid leave to feature on the reality TV show in June 2019, but was told by the force it was "not in the best interest for either her or the Metropolitan Police Service to take part".
Despite this, the officer appeared on the show in July 2019 and handed over her work laptop - which she had taken with her without permission - to the programme's organisers.
She entered the Big Brother house in Lagos and lasted 77 days before being evicted, according to reports.
A misconduct hearing panel ruled that PC Kareem had breached the standards of professional behaviour in relation to "orders and instructions" and "discreditable conduct", the Met Police said.
The panel found that gross misconduct was proven and PC Kareem should be given a final written warning.
Detective Chief Superintendent Andy Day said: "Permission was refused for PC Kareem to appear on the Nigerian version of Big Brother as it was felt it was not in the best interest for either her or the Metropolitan Police Service to take part.
"Despite this refusal, she went on the show anyway.
"A detailed investigation was carried out by the Met's directorate of professional standards which concluded PC Kareem should face gross misconduct proceedings.
"Being a police officer means you must abide by the standards of professional behaviour. PC Kareem's behaviour clearly fell far short and she has been given a final written warning."
According to reports, PC Kareem joined the Met Police as a PC based at Lambeth station in 2015, having worked part-time as a special constable for four years.
At the time she appeared on Nigeria's Big Brother, the show's website said the officer wanted "the exposure that being in Big Brother Naija House brings so that she can do societal good".
She told the show she is "secretly talented in spoken word, singing and dancing".
Fans of the show were particularly taken with her romance with fellow contestant Ekpata Gedoni.
Damn! The anti-spam bot banned me, the mod unbanned me and moved the thread to the home page before I could finish creating it. Anyway, I have now posted the reactions above.
LASAMBUS OFFICIALS RESCUE, DELIVER STRANDED PREGNANT WOMAN IN LABOUR
April 29, 2022
… As LASG Rejigs Ambulance Service for Prompt Medical Emergency Response
A pregnant woman, who fell into labour along Ozumba Mbadiwe Road, Victoria Island, while in transit on a public bus from Awoyaya in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government to Orile, has been delivered of a baby by Lagos State Ambulance Service (LASAMBUS) officials.
The woman, 27-year-old Shukarat Isa, a resident of 30 Akin Akinsheyinwa Street, Awoyaya, Lagos and the male child weighing 3.3kg, have since been taken to the Ikate Health Centre for further care and management.
Speaking after receiving a report of the successful medical emergency response by the LASAMBUS team, the Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Prof. Akin Abayomi, explained that the incident occurred yesterday around the Law School Bus Stop on Victoria Island.
According to him, “LASAMBUS received the distress call of a pregnant woman in labour at 8.02am and promptly dispatched its closest response team to the venue of the incident. The team arrived the scene, the Law School Bus Stop, at 8:16 am and quickly set parameters for the emergency response, helping the woman to deliver both the baby and the placenta”.
Prof. Abayomi noted that the team observed basic medical emergency procedures on the spot before conveying the mother and child to the Ikate Health Centre for further management.
The Commissioner said: “This is a typical case of an obstetric emergency which may arise at any time during pregnancy, labour and birth. The Lagos State Government realising the pivotal role of prompt emergency response, including transport of pregnant women during critical obstetric emergencies, in preventing maternal and child deaths, has continued to expand its ambulance services to offer prompt emergency service to residents”.
Expressing delight about the feat performed by the LASAMBUS team, Abayomi spoke further saying “We are happy that our investment and effort in overhauling the Lagos State Ambulance Service is yielding the desired results. News such as this is cheering and heart-warming as it adds up to improve our health indices and showcase our resolve to provide efficient and equitable service delivery to Lagosians”.
Speaking in the same vein, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health, Dr. Olusegun Ogboye, disclosed that the State Government is currently reviewing the performance of the ambulance service and implementing a strategic plan to significantly improve service delivery, response time and the quality of care delivered by the service to reduce morbidity and mortality from emergencies.
He also stated that the Sanwo-Olu administration has put words into action by commencing an overhaul of the ambulance service with new state-of-the-art ambulances and equipment to further sharpen the operations of LASMABUS in addition to comprehensive and continuous capacity development of its staff for improved performance.
“With over 200 staff, 25 ambulance points and a fleet of ambulances strategically located across the State, the Lagos State Ambulance Service is poised to provide prompt pre-hospital and emergency healthcare to Lagosians. Ours is a 24-hour medical emergency response service including weekends and public holidays”, Dr. Ogboye said.
Giving an account of the incident, the rescued woman, Shukarat Isa, explained that she was in transit from Awoyaya in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government area to Orile on a public bus when she went into labour.
Her words, “I was on a bus to Orile from Awoyaya, I fell into labour in the course of the journey and a man sitting beside me called the emergency number and requested help. The vehicle had a stop at the Law School Bus Stop for some passengers to disembark and this was where the LASAMBUS officials caught up with the vehicle and assisted with the delivery, which was already in process.
“The team also assisted in cleaning me and my baby up before transporting us to Ikate Health Centre at Elegushi. At Ikate Health Centre, the nurses stayed with us and assisted with my admission and baby immunisation before leaving. I have since been discharged and my baby and I are doing quite well. I would like to appreciate the medical team for their response and care, it means a lot to me and my family.”
The LASAMBUS team that was involved in the life-saving emergency service included Oyekanmi Inumidun Ayomibo, an Assistant Chief Community Health Technician; Uthman Nofisat Afolashade, Higher Community Health Technician and Yusuf Olanrewaju Rahmon, the Ambulance pilot.
Gov @dabiodunMFR never admitted to committing any crime anywhere
Our attention has been drawn to a story with a misleading caption in some online newspapers.
To say this story is fallacious is to say the least.
It is an admission to the fact that the journalism profession, which we still hold as noble has been thrown to the dogs.
Journalists are expected to fact check their information before going to the press.
This particular story was purportedly from a letter written by Afe Babalola & Co, to the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as a response to a petition written by a political mercenary.
Nowhere in the letter written by the Afe Babalola & Co. was there any admission by Prince Dapo Abiodun to have admitted to committing any crime.
The letter written by the governor’s lawyers was twisted and presented to suit a particular purpose best known to those that authored / sponsored it.
It should, however, be noted that their obvious game plan is to discredit the governor and get through the backdoor, what they could not get through the ballot.
Prince Dapo Abiodun is unperturbed by this machination. Just like they failed in 2019, they will also fail this time around.
For the avoidance of doubt, let it be noted that Prince Dapo Abiodun did not admit ever being convicted of any crime.
While we enjoined journalists to comply strictly to the ethics of their profession, we shall however not hesitate to take appropriate legal step against the purveyors of this blatant falsehood.
