I don't necessarily agree with your framing. Onome was criticized after he decision not to resign from the national team immediately after the World cup. Many people (myself inclusive) while we didn't necessarily think she made the world cup list on merit could understand her inclusion as we felt that was the right way to honour her contribution of many years to the team. It was just the best way for her to bow out.

When she however hinted on her continuing with the team many criticized. Criticisms aren't outside the borderline of acceptable speech. Of course I acknowledge a few persons directed hate towards her, it comes with the territory (social media) but the vast majority of people criticised her. When she stopped making the team it largely stopped too. It is why I asked if the article mentioned her cause I felt she's intentionally inserting herself into the conversation, that's before you drew my attention to those trolling her on social media.

So no, Onome wasn't under attack. She was criticized.

Ordega was live yesterday with David Doherty. It didn't take too long though. I think she was circumspect and just dispelled the rumour, didn't do all of the funny things Onome is doing now.

Does it have a platform lift for each building?

Both stairs and elevators. It’s built to maximum functionality

Fantastic! We need to make it a norm in Lagos. It is a common thing in Cape Town. Lagos should show the true mega city features.

Any housing project undertaken by the Lagos State Government that is more than three floors will automatically have elevator system installed in it. Even three floors have elevators

Today, I unveiled 60 Units of two and three bedroom apartments at Rising Lagos Apartments, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and designed to enhance residents' quality of life.

Additionally, I commissioned the 144-unit mixed development project, Greater Lagos LBIC/WGC Apartments, in Amuwo Odofin, showcasing our dedication to urban renewal and sustainable development in Lagos State.

These building initiatives mark a significant milestone in our ongoing efforts to address the housing needs of our citizens and promote inclusive growth throughout the state.

You seem to be glorifying arbitrary arrest. A noble thing would have been to charge him to court within 48hrs so the court interpret what crime was committed

DMerciful:
In Nigeria, you can pay police to arrest people provided you have money.

DMerciful:
Punish for what?

It's actually business. That's all it is, crazy business.


A phenomenom swept YouTube in the late 2000s. A lot of young people in America discovered that they could make a lot of money by shooting pranks and uploading them to their YouTube channels. These prank videos gained millions of views and since YouTube paid advertising revenue to people that had lots of views, these people made a lot of money.


Many of these pranks were extremely dangerous and reckless. Some of these pranksters were actually arrested by the police. One of the most notorious pranksters was a guy called Charles Ross. He was arrested many times and repeatedly ordered by judges to stop creating prank videos on YouTube.


What this person did is one of the most famous pranks of that era. The prankster would fill a clean bottle of bleach or cleaning fluid with water or soft drink and then go to a public place to drink it while filming the reaction of people around the area.


Some other famous pranks include:

Pretending to shoot people.

Pretending to be a prisoner

Pretebding to be a ghost, spirit, zombie or some other scary character

Dressing up dogs to look like lions or tigers.

Pranking people in drive throughs.


Etc.


YouTube recently took action against some of the pranksters by making it difficult for them to make money from their dangerous videos.


The pranking wave has now hit Nigeria. Nigerians are increasingly making these prank videos and a person that goes by the name Crackhead Extra has recently become famous by posting videos that show her going to crowded markets and bus stops and shouting the lyrics of famous songs while acting like a mad person.


This guy was one of the most famous pranksters at the peak of the pranking wave in 2010. His name is Garrett Garcia and the name of his channel is Overboard Humour. He made a lot of money from YouTube back then, but he wasted a lot of it and he was badly hit by the YouTube crackdown (his girlfriend also left him). He is now broke and homeless.

Garrett did the prank in this 2011 video. He went to a supermarket, bought cleaning fluid, switched it with another bottle that he brought from home and then pretended to be drinking the cleaning fluid. (He had already planted the bottle and the camera at that spot before calling the store attendant).

Did any of the article posted here mention Onome at all? I didn't see her name mentioned so surprised she's inserting herself into the story except there's something I do not know. Correct me if I'm mistaken
