Tell that to Deziani, Ibori, Oduah, and the list goes on. Apparently a good name can't buy food.

j/k... I agree with you sha

I was happy when reading the story until I saw 'except when necessary' That phrase automatically gives them right to conduct stop and search anyhow they want so don't jubilate yet.

Same here... that phrase still allows them to conduct the same stop and harass.
I spent almost 50 minutes last week on top of generator matter with SARS. Apparently I need to carry receipt for my decade-old generator with me everytime I drive it for servicing. Still had to dash them something at the end. I was so vexed. Mtcheew.

I don't condone drug abuse, but government will have to find someway to compensate for all these seizures.
Contracts were signed and payments made for those shipments before the ban came to effect.
Just because something is illegal/banned now, does not mean it government should ignore the fact that there was legitimate (at the time) trade for the product.

In other words, at the time the shipments were made, tramadol was not contraband.

This a political midget to His Excellence, President Mohammadu Buhari (GCFR)

2023 is already ascertained. What political aristocrats are presently working on is after 2023.

Duke should go invest in poultry farming to while away time.

Not yet his time

Ha hah... I heartily disagree, but I really like your post.

I think PMB has done his best, which is sadly not good enough. Duke on the other hand, is someone who's had a reputation of good performance - at least better than most of the candidates, including the incumbent.

Duke is more likely to bring investments, diversification, and the experience of running a wealthy state well. Wealth creation will go a long way towards curbing the crimes (including official corruption) we experience daily. PMB is likely to spend 24 combined months in London in his second term, still chasing shadows from decades ago, blaming past administrations, continuing partisanship, and further dividing the country.

This is a wonderful incentive... I hope they see it through because once rehabilitated, this would make an excellent hotel. If they could also develop a few things around it to make it a more complete tourist attraction, that would even be better.

Trouble is government has a poor track record in maintaining and actually profiting from such things. They need to sell it to a private developer, really, and then hands off.

na just friendly game most this players will up their games wen d world cup start na testing testing una coach still dey do nd iyam sure he dos not want his opponent to know is game plan lol make una no giv una self bp coz of friendly

What kind of consolation talk is that? Losing all friendly matches because coach doesn't want opponents to know their game plan? So now that England and Czech Republics won, do we know their game plan? That means we are we going to beat them at the real matches, right? SMH

What's sad is that people won't hesitate to send money to a beautiful lady, but will get all funny if it's a not-so-fine babe, or a guy? Broke is broke people, why does beauty and gender play a role in our sympathy?

It's not mentality only... they have to dedicate themselves to training, lose individual ego to become a cohesive team, stop being so pompous about individual skill. Government also needs to provide the best training facilities, give them real financial incentives, and NFF needs to encourage real talent, not just recruiting people for the national team because of their name.

I know many Nigerians will like this shade, but naah... I like snoop, but I can't take him dissing my brothers and sisters like that.
And to be honest, the Black Stars should have made the cut, not the Simpering Eagles... at least they would bring their best game to the World Cup, unlike our Eagles who know how to dribble and look fresh, but can't enter quarter finals.

Ebola loading... people will eat all these animals, then start complaining when they fall sick. SMH

The uproar over the video is actually symbolic of the very same problem the video highlights: we ignore the message and focus only on the dance/facade.

Please my muslim brothers and sisters: is there a prohibition against dancing? It's not like they are doing anything provocative, just youths dancing. And more to the point: the hijab and dancing are very illustrative of our situation. Did anyone notice that they also bent their heads when the herdsmen showed up (indicating beheading), or how they ran off at 6pm (security reasons). There's so much to get from that video, and instead of us sobering up and hearing the substantive message, we're caught up in the theatrics.

The very same people that brought us hijab... are they not the very same that introduced belly dancing? Where a woman dances provocatively in public with midsection exposed? We tolerate that but get upset when our youths are trying to send us a message.

And now, instead of MURIC helping to highlight the issues we are facing on a daily basis, want to ban the video. The things some hypocrites do in private are much much worse than anything in the video, yet they do not flog or punish themselves.

Sorry... I thought it was only the men in our families that do such... but I see some women get that kind liver too.

Well, now you get to hustle and try again, albeit a bit wiser and cautious. Most people who own and build in Naija did not travel out to achieve success. All you are looking for is right here. Hope you brought some small change with you sha...

lexy2014:
so if women with abilities are allowed to showcase their abilities, Nigeria will become El Dorado?

Not necessarily, but any society that restricts the potential of half its citizens can never even hope to become El Dorado.

Well, times change. Our ancestors were human beings just like us, with wisdom and weaknesses, who made laws and customs to fit their times. When they made those laws, they broke with the traditions of their precedessors. We owe it to them to consider the times and circumstances we're in, and break with traditions that no longer apply for a more equitable and just society.

This is just discrimination masquerading as tradition.

As if you know everything a girl gets into. Most cheats are never found out, and there's no mileage or bodycount meter.

Any win by SE will be a surprise, based more on luck and gaps in the opposing team, rather than any kind of skill or cohesive team play.

Igbo ladies love marrying outside their tribe because their tradition considers them worthless, it's unfortunate

For those quoting me can you please answer this question; do your ladies have right to inheritance? If no, do you males have right to inheritance? If yes, then you've proved me right.

That may have been a valid (though specious) statement a while back, but as of 2014, the Nigeria Supreme Court invalidated this custom of denying inheritance to Igbo women. http://www.loc.gov/law/foreign-news/article/nigeria-supreme-court-invalidates-igbo-customary-law-denying-female-descendants-the-right-to-inherit/

Historically most societies - including UK and US - viewed that since women "leave" their father's family to join their husband's, there's no incentive to leave property to daughters. Rather leave it to the sons who would use it to take care of their own wives and children. It wasn't until 1800s that the West began to switch from this mindset. For the most part, this worked pretty well, as long as families bore sons (and if they didn't, they adopted), and girls found husbands.

As with most things however, unscrupulous individuals would use this to their selfish advantage, never mind that in Igbo culture, unmarried/windowed/divorced are entitled to care in their father's house - meaning, the brother who inherited the house was expected to take care of his sisters and their children should something happen. It's not that the tradition considers them worthless, but that there are some family members who will do anything to stake claim to all the property they can, and in collusion with other men, can perpetrate their discrimination.

I don't agree with discriminatory inheritance at all, but I'm just explaining the rationale.

OneCorner:
But d money ur fada collected in standing for criminals in d court of law is wat u and ur family spent from.

Ur fada has stood for countless criminals and wittingly change d course of justice in d court of law and you come here to preach for us after enjoying d wealth ur fada made from it.

Radarada is worrying ur life

Why blame children for the sins of their parents? You should be addressing the father, in this case, not the son. Ironically his father is one you cannot accuse of protecting criminals... he's had a straightforward reputation. At any rate, the law presumes innocence till proven guilty, and every person has a right to a fair trial - no matter what.

Now Falz is preaching against ills and you're being distracted from his message...

"Not too Young to Run" Abi "Not too young to steal?"

Because that is how they will get there and start doing the very same things... after all, all these agbaya leaders we have now started looting in their 30s...

... and yet, per capita, this is where some of Nigeria's best minds in business, engineering, entertainment, and policy come from... Not sure what you meant by your post OP, considering this university is a microcosm of all that is Nigeria.

Of course, rather than replying with some wit, you'll make some veiled (or overt) reference to me being gay or some such rubbish

Uh huh... and some of them are about to call up that gay ashawo they like so much, after a hard day's work. Let me hear word jare.
They have serious issues in Benue - life and properties of residents at stake, unemployment and lack of opportunities, and this is the one somebody decided to call to the floor and spend considerable time and money on?

Every 4 years, they jet out in style, and then go and embarrass us... at least they should try to enter quarterfinals before crashing out...
All the money for kits, flights, accommodations, and egunje to the officials can be much better spent on chalk for our schools. SMH.

We should just give the money to Senegal... at least those chaps can actually play ball and are not afraid to tackle oyinbo, unlike our fellows with overgrown egos. I will miss Ghana who have way more heart and team spirit than our players.

I may win a lot of bets so long as I bet against the Super Eagles. Yes, I drank my hatorade this night, but you all know it's the truth...

I don't get it... what's the difference between English and Arabic as far as we Nigerians are concerned? They are both non-Nigerian languages, and were brought into Nigeria via imperialism, death, and conquest. Arabic was the written language of the North before Europeans came, and the only reason English became the official language of all Nigeria is because because it made for easier administration for the UK.
