Unless the ex envoy feels/knows exactly what we Nigerians feel/know ( no jobs, no light, no security, more nepotism and impunity, corruption, disobedience to the rule of law, e.t.c) then he might have a say. Outside that, this post is useless

Only a person who is alive and living in peace can talk about job.
If you are in doubt ask Libyans, Syrians and Yemenis about their major problem.

GEJ has done wonderfully well with the Nigerian economy.

It's unfortunate that people don't believe in evil spirits, but I don't see how a normal person would do something like this.

Tell that to the judge. Only in Nigeria do criminals always blame everything else except themselve.

Aisha: My Edo people , I know that you guys are jobless and your women are foremost international prostitutes.
Aisha: APC..
ROBOTS: Change!!!

Edo people: Thunder fire you and your husband. He shall cry again.

Whenever any "news" emanate from APC it is important to cross-check because 99.9% of time they are lies.
Now APC have "changed" tactics from fake news to fake pictures.
A house built on falsehood don't last.

The presidential campaign organisation of the Peoples Democratic Party has raised the alarm that the opposition All Progressives Congress is planning to plunge the nation into crisis because defeat is steering it in the face.

Director of Media and Publicity of the PDP campaign, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, raised the alarm at a media briefing in Abuja, on Wednesday.

Fani-Kayode said the PDP had uncovered a plot by the APC to destabilise the country as soon as its candidate, Maj. Gen.Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) loses the presidential election on March 28.

According to Fani-Kayode, the APC has already set in motion its plan with the establishment of “APC Radio” or “Radio Chanji” which he said had been broadcasting falsehood, propaganda and inciting members of the public.

“The objective of the radio station is to serve as a propaganda tool to fight the government after they lose the election on March 28,” he said.

He named former governor of Ekiti State, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, whom he said was the brain behind Radio Kudirat during the days of NADECO when the government of General Sani Abacha was being fought by a number of people in Nigeria, as the man behind the APC radio project.

Fani-Kayode said, “The opposition know that they would lose the election and after this happens it is their intention to begin to use this illegal radio station to incite Nigerians against the government.

“They seek to create mayhem and cause panic and create a toxic and bellicose atmosphere in which their supporters will be encouraged to slaughter and kill innocent Nigerians whilst the country burns.

“They also intend to use the radio station to incite the armed forces to mutiny. They intend to create a major division and utter chaos within the Nigerian state, using religion and ethnicity, and they will take that opportunity to either call for full blown military intervention or the establishment of an Interim National Government.

“It is through the auspices of this illegal radio station that they intend to announce members of their planned shadow and parallel government, to nominate their ministers and to then create major crisis in our country.”

Calls to Fayemi’s telephone number were neither picked nor returned as of the time of this report. A text message sent to him was also not replied as of the time of filing this report at 7:45pm.

However, the spokesman for the APC, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said he would not dignify Fani-Kayode’s speculations with a response.

The PDP campaign also said that an APC insider exposed the opposition’s plots to the PDP out of patriotic zeal and commitment to Nigeria.

voltron:
Learners.. ask baba suwe how he did it

Pictures or you are lying

It is unfortunate that in this 21st century some 'learned' press people are listening to how a semi-literate "general" will protect their freedom.

I ask why do we need to gamble with our freedom of speech which has been guaranteed 100% under GEJ ?
Freedom of speech is our property , therefore Buhari can't dash us our right.

The Defence headquarters Sunday disclosed that Air Force pounding of identified terrorists’ hideouts is continuing in some locations in Yobe and Borno States as part of ongoing campaign against terror.
Director of Defence Information, Major General Chris Olukolade in a statement said “Several sorties are being flown either in conjunction with ongoing ground assault by troops or to dislodge any concentration of terrorists as follow up to intelligence reports.
“Simultaneous mopping up operations are also ongoing in the areas already operated upon by Nigerian Air Force have already been mopped up” he added.
Also, Nigerian troops are currently battling Boko Haram terrorists in a determined bid to retake Damasak, a border town between Nigeria and Niger Republic.
The battle for the retake of the town is being waged by Nigerian troops in conjunction with the Multinational Joint Task Force (MJTF).
Damasak is one of the boisterous border towns of Borno State, where farm produce like beans, pepper and tomatoes are produced in commercial quantity, close to Diffa in Niger Republic and was seized by the terrorists in November last year as part of Boko Haram campaign to create an illusory caliphate.
Recall that Boko Haram terrorists attacked Damasak and Ashigarchi towns in Mobbar local government area of Borno in their hundreds killing over 50 persons in Damasak alone on November 15, 2014.
The sect members according to military sources, drove in Hillux vans and motor bikes into the town burning vehicles, houses and forcing hundreds of residents to flee to the Cameroonian borders.
Top security sources confirmed that the ongoing battle, which commenced hours ago has put a lie to reports last week that the town was recaptured by forces of a foreign country collaborating in the Multinational Joint Task Force.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

Pakistani Taliban (TTP) splinter group claims responsibility
At least 14 people killed in simultaneous suicide bombings
Attacks 'timed to cause maximum devastation'
More than 70 people wounded the attacks
Angry mob lynch at least one suspect at blast site
At least 14 people have been killed and dozens more wounded in bombings targeting two churches in the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore.
A Punjab Police spokesperson told Al Jazeera that a Roman Catholic church and a Christ Church in Lahore's Youhanabad area were hit in Sunday's suicide attacks.
At least 70 people were wounded, said Zahid Pervez, the provincial director general of health.
Jamaat-ur-Ahrar, a Pakistani Taliban (TTP) splinter group, claimed responsibility for both the attacks.
The group appeared to have timed the attacks to cause maximum devastation, as the two churches were packed with Christians attending Sunday services when the bombs went off.


A spokesman for the faction said it was the work of two suicide bombers.
"The Tehreek-e-Taliban Jamaat-ur-Ahrar accepts responsibility for the suicide attacks on the churches in Lahore," Ahsanullah Ahsan, a spokesman for the Taliban faction, said in a statement emailed to reporters.
"We promise that until an Islamic system is put into place in Pakistan such attacks will continue. If Pakistan's rulers think they can stop us, they should try to do so," the statement added.
One unidentified witness told Pakistan's Geo television that the main gate to one of the churches targeted was closed so people were using a smaller gate.
"One bomber exploded himself near that gate, that created chaos and during the course there was another blast," he said.
Irfan Ashraf, Lahore's deputy inspector-general of police operations, confirmed that a policeman and a private security guard were among the dead.
He said they gave up their lives to stop the bombers from entering the churches.
Suspect 'burned alive'
In the tense aftermath of the bombings, angry mobs burned to death one person they believed was involved in the attack and tried to lynch another, said Haider Ashraf, deputy inspector general for Lahore.
Local television footage showed an angry crowd beating a person they thought was connected to the attack, while others attacked buses in the city.

Youhanabad is the country's biggest Christian locality, housing at least one million people.
Lahore is the capital of Punjab, Pakistan's wealthiest province and the political heartland of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
The city is generally considered peaceful compared to other areas of Pakistan but violence has been increasing after the government's failed attempts to hold peace talks with the Taliban last year.
The Christian community in Pakistan has long been the target of blasphemy cases besides attacks and hate crimes carried out by armed groups within the country.
In 2013 a pair of suicide bombers blew themselves up outside a historic church in Peshawar, killing more than 80 people and wounding at least 140 others.

RickRichards:
Very intelligent man. I'm sure he doesn't support GEJ. No intelligent person would, unless there's big money is involved. Hehehe
And the two posters' above me should please as a matter of urgency and courtesy, get a room.

He is definitely behind GEJ, because no right thinking intelligent person will queue behind a semi-literate cert forger.
So if you are a Buhari supporter , you need to take an IQ test ASAP.

Controlled:
see classy issue based campaigning.... if it was PDP now....dey will be talking about....pampers.... Stoning innocent people... smelly mouth... ...dying in newspapers.... ....character assassination....... . God bless the people's general....

SMH, please point out the issues in his speech . The man who had been running from debate pointed fingers at Jonathan administration and you called that issues based campaign, no it isn't , it is a continuation of APC propaganda ideology in which their only selling point is the number of Boko haram attacks taking place.
One of this day Buhari will blame GEJ for his old age.

Fashola claimed that he has delivered his promise to hand over Lagos treasury to Tinubu.
Do you agree or disagree ?

wakacome:
Am entitled to my own opinion...you can go and commit suicide as if I care...

Everybody is entitled to their opinion but not their "own" facts, try to be clear next time.

This headline is misleading he can't be executed simply for stealing 10 Naira because "Mighty" and "Notorious" cannot be attached to someone who simply stole 10 Naira.
Sensationalism at its worst.

ABUJA – Following the air and land bombardment to flush out Boko Haram terrorists in the north east,hundreds of the terrorists fleeing from the onslaught have met their waterloo in Gombi town, Gombi Local Government Area of Adamawa State Monday evening.

The terrorists according to a statement signed by Colonel Sani Usman, Acting Director of Army Public Relations, “were engaged by troops of 23 Brigade Nigerian Army in a gun battle that led to killing of quite a number of them, destruction and recovery of vehicles, motorcycles, various calibre of weapons and ammunitions”.

“These include 4 Hilux vehicles, 3 Anti-Aircraft guns and one .50 inch Browning Machine Gun. Others include 5,000 rounds of 12.7 millimetre ammunitions, 2 boxes of .50 inch ammunitions, 1,000 rounds of Light Machine Gun ammunitions and one Rocket Propelled Grenade 7 tube, as well as one General Purpose Machine Gun”.

“Unfortunately, one soldier was wounded in the encounter and he is responding to treatment”.

“Troops are mopping up the area to prevent further incursions by the terrorists” he added.

The wind of "change" is blowing away people's salaries.
Nigerians beware!

berem:
Nemesis caught up with AIT and ITV. The gods are very angry with Dokpesi and Igbinedion


NTA is next!

Can you be more clear with your comments.
How many of you were paid to carry out the attacks ?
Note that the law will still catch up with you and your cohorts no matter how long you run and hide.
APC - VIOLENCE

wakacome:
The nigeria of 1983 is better than the nigeria of 2015....fact!!!!!go and read your history book....

I doubt if you know the meaning of the word "history" or "better"

So many ignorant post on this thread from those who understand nothing about the Yoruba culture.
The OP made some conjecture about the meaning of a traditional practice and some people in their warped minds made themself authority on the subject.

WisdomFlakes:
INEC has suddenly become a 'fraud' with 'flaws' to the PDP simply because for the first time in the history of this fourth republic the ruling PDP can't have its way by subjecting the INEC boss to its whims and caprices.

Now INEC is a 'fraud' coz the PDP might very well lose the forthcoming elections due to the body's assertion of its independence in the conduct of the forthcoming elections.

Like seriously? ? ?

Why dosn't you respond directly to his question : which part of the article did you find flaws ?
If you won't do that it only means that you agree the points raised are valid but you are against it because it paints INEC in "bad light"

Buhari has infected all APC members with violence and intolerance.
You can't dine with the devil and remain clean.
Nigerians should beware of the violent party.

A master stroke from the progressive Obas.
GEJ:PROGRESS

Danhumprey:
With all due respect,what has poverty got to do with this?

He meant poverty of the mind

martyns303:
You still don't get it do you? You are writing a piece based on irrational perception.

1. Before the boy could tell the girl that his mom wanted to see her, it is either she has been there before, knows the mom or a certain amount relationship has to be there.

By statistics, rapist do not rape people at random and the women say they were raped by people they trust or knew. You can research on it.

2. Are you now speaking for the boy? How do you know what he can and what it cannot do?

3. If she is unconscious or under a spell, why would they need to force her? For there to be a force, then there has to be resistance, and someone who is unconscious is not in any position to put up a resistance.

4. When she walked into that building with those boys, she deliberately put herself in danger.

Let me ask you, when you take a girl out for a drink and you guys come back drunk, do you say to her "do u agree that I insert......." You get the message.


Look I am not here to praise these guys or whatever, if they did the crime, they should do the time. But don't give a dog a bad name to hang it. That's how a lot of innocent people end up in jail.

I laugh at the highlighted.
Most your arguments are based on self-defeating conjectures.

Even if the girl has been to the boys house before , do you know for what purpose she went there.
Assuming she went to the boys house for sex related reasons, do you think she just want to punish the guy for no reason.
A safe guess based on your points here will be that the guy invited his friends and when the girl refused they forced themself on her which still constitutes a rape.
I rest my case.
Rest in prison to the offenders

What else do you expect ?
His doctors and Tinubu have advised him to avoid public appearance for the time being

eleojo23:
huh? If that is true then the north should be more developed considering the fact that they've being in power many times in the past more than any other region. If the allocations to the region are properly used without any theft as you claim, they should be more developed in all aspects (education, basic amenities etc). Not so?

Don't mind that APC tie.
Always creating fake scenarios to favor the semi-literate "general"

gabriel212:
BAT get my approvals for this. I dont c anything wrong in havin a TV Station but you must be cautious of what you air and try to be non sentimental. I and some ppl I know stop watching ait since the -ve remarks on the Peoples General.

Sentiments can freely be expressed by a TV or Radio station provided it is abased on facts which is the case.
Any aggrieved person should go to court or remain silent forever. Moreover, people that can't stand criticism do not deserve leadership role.
Many lies have been told about GEj for years now and I haven't heard of any court case against any media house.
Up Freedom of speech.

This is what happens when you take Buhari as your role model.
If the matter is investigated further, we will find out that Ms Animan is a Buhari supporter because only him can bring desired change(Fake certs to Affidavits) to her life.

martyns303:
I started off by saying in no way are their actions justifiable, I simple pointed out the fact that the story may not be entirely true.

But since you want to debate on it, lets discuss shall we?

First the authority do not recognize magic and so it is not admissible. But then again magic was never involved, how so?

1) This girl has known the guy for a very long time, as she admitted that he has been asking her out, she also knows his family which is the only explanation as to why she said the boy said his mom had requested to see her. They were probably next door neighbors, if that was the case, then the boy doesn't need magic to convince her to follow him to his place.

2) Or did he also used magic to convince her to concume the alcohol, which she admittedly consumed?

What prove is there that she was gang raped? Except the police can provide a video evidence or semen to prove that all three (3) boys had sex with her.

3) We could easily elimate the other 2 guys from the suspect list and pin the case on the mastermind. But then what prove is there that the sex wasn't consensual?

4) Like I said before? It's like as it happens in everyday life. A guy invites a girl to his place for a gig, girl gets drunk, guy took advantage. The girl didn't take it well, so she reported the case. Fabricated a story to cover her end and ignorance.

1)Firstly , your submission that the boy doesn't need magic to convince the girl to follow him is baseless because knowing someone facially doesn't equals trust even if they stayed in the same compound.

3)As to the prove of gangrape , while it appears that only the mastermind himself can exonerate his accomplices and I don't see him doing that because if he is going down he would have to draw his friends with him. Again , the accomplices will have to prove they were not at the location of the said rape at the particular time of the day the assault took place.

2)You will agree with me that three strong boys can easily force or threaten an SS1 girl to consume alcohol.

4) Your fourth argument is enough to jail the suspects, a girl under the influence of alcohol or drug cannot be deemed to have given any consent whatsoever , so it fits in with the narrative of the girl that she was raped.

nzeobi:
Kick him out on what grounds

Buhari will suspend the constitution if elected, he can then "kick out" anybody who opposes him.
God forbid!

cyberdurable:
Lmao! Yoruba people get A1 for FoolishNess

May I introduce to you the most senseless poster on Nairaland.

dedons:
oga,it's not a case of rape or molestation.

According to him,the deed was done with mutual agreement.

According to the law , a minor cannot give a consent , therefore, this is a pure case of rape and it is punishable under the law.
