Twist the headlines they way you like na Ukrainians and the mumu Russian soldiers they suffer ham.

All parties should ceasefire and let peace reign!
I don't think the West wants this war to end soon, maybe there's something they stand to gain and Putin is being more aggressive!!

This is getting more serious, I thought they agreed on ceasefire?

China is “extremely concerned” about the harm to civilians in Ukraine, Foreign Minister Wang Yi told his Ukrainian counterpart in a call, in the latest indication of Beijing’s desire to prevent the war’s further escalation.

Wang said the world’s second largest economy also “deplores the outbreak of conflict between Ukraine and Russia,” according to a statement posted on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website. The remarks were published after a call between Wang and Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, the most senior exchange since Russia’s Vladimir Putin launched the invasion Thursday.

Wang also acknowledged the conflict was a “war,” rather than a “special military operation” as described by Russia. Kuleba said Ukraine was willing to strengthen communication with China and that it looked forward to China’s “mediation for the realization of the ceasefire,” according to the statement.
“This is a very important event and signals the very high attention that the Chinese government is paying to the Ukraine crisis,” said Henry Wang Huiyao, founder of the Center for China & Globalization policy research group in Beijing. “If both Ukraine and Russia invite China to be a mediator, then China would probably join.”

The war is testing Chinese President Xi Jinping’s commitment last month to a “no limits” relationship with Putin, as the U.S. and its allies pile on sanctions and press Beijing to take as stand against military aggression. In recent days, Xi has urged Putin to pursue negotiations and China’s United Nations ambassador abstained from, rather than opposing, a Security Council resolution condemning the attack.

The call between Wang Yi and Kuleba came as convoys of Russian military vehicles bore down on the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv and other major cities, prompting warnings that Moscow could unleash a mass bombardment on population centers.
Still, China has refrained from publicly calling for a ceasefire or describing the war as an “invasion,” and thus a violation of the UN-guaranteed sovereignty Beijing frequently vows to uphold. China hasn’t criticized Russia, and continues to voice support its security concerns and blame the U.S. for precipitating the crisis.

China boasts deep economic ties with Ukraine, and Wang Yi expressed concern over the safety of Chinese citizens there, estimated at 6,000 when the invasion began. Beijing’s support is seen as essential to Moscow’s efforts to weather international sanctions, which are cutting if off from huge swaths of the world’s trade, finance and travel.

Some 2,500 Chinese nationals have been relocated from Ukraine as of midday Wednesday, Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said at a regular press briefing in Beijing. He sidestepped a question on whether Xi would speak with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, saying only that Beijing’s communication links with Kyiv were open.
During the call, Wang Yi said China always upholds respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries, and called on Ukraine and Russia to “find a solution to the issue through negotiations,” according to the statement. China supports all constructive international effort conducive to “political settlement,” he added.

“As the war continues to expand, the top priority is to ease the situation to prevent the conflict from escalating or even getting out of control, especially to prevent harm to civilians, and to ensure the safe and timely access of humanitarian aid,” the Chinese foreign minister said.

They should have called EFCC on him.. He should explain how He got the money. If He is clean should be set free but if found wanting He should face the full wrath of the law
..... why are people attacking me for saying He should be interrogated for his wealth.
My teacher in secondary school always say " a thief runeth when no man pursueth".
I am not scared of the EFCC because I can account for the little I have and when it gets bigger I will still be able to account for it.

Till they pin you with a CRIME you know nothing about, seems you don't know this people too well
Even guys that do VERY legitimate businesses don't pray to encounter police or EFCC

somehow:
Every news from this forum has been from the US and NATO nations.

How do you expect your readers on this forum to be truly informed?

Same pattern until they destroyed countries like Iraq and Libya with lies and propoganda.

Whoever is pushing all these US side of the story on this forum is either wicked or fully ignorant.

I think nothing stops you from bringing up news from sources if you have!

Kingpin1000:
Everyone can see NATO are the aggressors and Russians are just defending themselves from a sudden attack on the west.

Russia cannot dictate if Ukraine (A sovereign country) joins NATO or not
What are they defending when they invaded and scattered another person's land
They should play better international politics and draw Ukraine closer if they don't want them to join NATO
Less than a week into the invasion, he's already going nuclear, that's a sure sign of weakness!
So he can't even fight against Ukraine without NUKES?
So what happens when he fights US or UK?

Nigeria loses, but GEJ didnt loose because we still shared Excess crude funds championed by Amechi..

How did we go from saving Excess crude funds because of high crude price to losing because of high crude price despite still paying same subsidy?

You're informed bro
This question beckons for answer and explanations (If they have any)

othermen:
ASUU knows that the federal university is probably the last hope of the common man; your education is actually subsidized!!

You see the amounts paid in private universities, that is the amount you will pay, if Federal school becomes self autonomous and then, federal government no longer has any responsibility as it relates to higher institutions.

Is it in lecturers interest, that federal government hands off? Yes, it is. That way, University lecturers salary will be sub-charged to students school fees, and school fees will simply just become affordable only for the rich. Only the rich will get an education.

That will be the fate of the common folks, the Parents and students struggling to even pay the little that is basically exam fee and registration fee.

You can check the agreement of ASUU with Federal government online if you are any diligent. ASUU’s primary want is that universities be funded, so that students can learn and be competent enough as their colleagues from private or foreign universities.

Lecturers welfare have actually never been on the forefront of the struggle and the truth is the average lecturer is been pushed to the wall, that they don't have a damn to give anymore about funding universities, they just want to be paid reasonable salary... But ASUU sees itself as the champion of common folks, and the common folks will stone and crucify ASUU in the end.

The issue is not that, ASUU makes new demands. The issue is the FG continues to renege on what they agreed to. So, they promise and they don't fulfil it.

It’s the school fees that our senator’s sons are paying abroad, that students will end up paying if they continue to be ignorant about ASUU’s struggle.

ASUU knows that the reason why some lecturers may resort to sorting and other malpractices is because their pay can’t even get them home, but yet members welfare is not foremost in ASUU’s demand.

You can check, a graduate assistant abroad is earning more than a professor in Nigeria. There is a continuous brain drain, our best minds are harvested by universities abroad. There is no motivation to have a career in teaching in Nigeria!!!

To access knowledge, you have to subscribe to journals, you have to do research, attend conferences… your most honest lecturers are poor folks, your honest professors can't do decent lives; to reach those stages of their career, they invested their paltry salaries in self development.

If you are a first class graduate in Engineering , that is why you would choose to work in a bank, than teach. Because your salary in a year as a lecturer, is the monthly salary of some bankers.

We attend congested classes, where you cannot really optimally learn, our laboratories are not equipped, our libraries are empty… we will never be equipped for the world, we will never pioneer any development, we will never be able to generate electricity by ourselves, or make toothpicks. Are we capable? Yes we are! Despite the situations of things, our lecturers are still coming up with patents and inventions that rust away in their dilapidated backyards, until they get it sold to China, who uses it to change the world, and become an economic and technology powerhouse.

Some of your lecturers don’t even want ASUU to make such demands in the interest of the people, because it’s in this decayed system, they have rooted themselves, but ASUU keeps on holding the line.

You're well informed!

I felt pity for what the lawyer went through in the hands of those cursed policemen until I got to this part:


I too am wondering what makes the lawyer think he is not an ordinary citizen.

And besides that, I've never really seen any difference between lawyers and policemen. 99.9% of them are as crooked as they come.

He said it because it is believed that lawyers knew and can fight for their rights more than other citizens
That's why when one is arrested by the police, he calls his lawyer not his doctor, teacher e.t.c
Just like when you're sick, you call your doctor

This man that was once accused as boko haram sponsor?
He's also not in good books of Tinubu, anyway he cannot personally decide who will be the party's presidential flag bearer!

sylve11:
Be like them don show you shege before.

Bro, that's exactly how one deceived me one day at Yaba, even saw him another day and he took to his heels on sighting me!

eddykaka:
hmmmm, make I no lie..I for stand listen to the numbers first I, those people de see things pass this world

It's also a scamming strategy atimes, they will tell you rubbish numbers and ask you to find them money!-- finally na loss loss

Baileyz101:
If the school shuts down totally, how will the other students finish thier exams abi na the whole students kill the boy ni? Others have thier lives ahead and they simply have to move on either ways. I am quite sure the online class is just for other students to round up thier exams. LASG should be aware of this step

But why must the school shield and hide the culprits?
Sounds like they are accomplice, they should severely face the music of this recklessness!
Most of these big schools only know how to collect money and pamper these students, imagine forcing a 12yr old boy to join cult in Js one

AbijaJ:
And you actually believe this poor hatchet job? Some of you allow your dislike for Tinubu to lead you to believe every rumour and innuendo spread about him. I won't be surprised if the Op is actually the one behind the poster, since he's obviously obsessed with the man. Una go dey alright.

I think one of the reasons we went to school was to verify things before concluding
Tinubu is trying not to loose out on everything, if President doesn't work, then his son goes for governorship
Mark these words today and quote me later!

Super eagles must quality for Qatar.

A world cup is useless without Nigeria even FIFA knows that.

The world cannot imagine a world cup with eagles it will be tasteless

It will be tasteless for you, not for the rest of the world

I wish them luck, gone are the days when Nigeria is a threat in the football world!
Even if they qualify for world cup, it's better not to expect much!!

lexy2014:
i didnt say she should have waived anything for him. manner of approach is important. its very likely that she was condescending and rude hence the conversation led to the altercation. the whole excuse that nigerian lecturers are "overworked and stressed" hence it justifies their repulsive behaviour is unacceptable. they continuously use that refrain to continuously intimidate students. many nigerians are "overworked and stressed". there are many nigerian graduates earning 15k, 20k working as school teachers and putting in unbelieveable shifts without job security (which lecturers enjoy) yet they dont vent their anger on the school children committed to their care. how do u impact the lives of those u despise because u say u are "overworked and stressed"? it shows that these underpaid nigerians are much better than our lecturers who see themselves as gods.

When adults behave like kids, that's what they See, her throwing a mug at him is wrong, very wrong but from this statement,
”I got angry, I don’t know what came over me, I started arguing and she told me to leave her office, I told her if I don’t leave, what is she going to do?"
Has he not provoked her to do her worst??

ChiefSosa:
In as much as it was totally wrong for the boy to assault his lecturer, but we can't act like some lecturers don't deserve some ass whooping.
You that you're reading this, I'm sure you can mention at least 5 lectures/teachers you wish you can Panel beat. Sentiments aside!
Lots of lecturers have made life a living hell for students.
There is more to this story and I don't think the boy will just randomly start beating the lecturer for no reason. This is a 400level student we are talking about. He must have been severely pushed to the wall before risking everything and then attacking the lecturer. He is a human after all and his emotions may have gotten the best of him, thereby making him overreact.
The case should be adequately heard and appropriately judged without bias, regardless of the parties involved. But, the guy would definitely have to receive some sort of punishment for assaulting a staff and fighting on premises. He shouldn't have done that. From the way she was crying and shouting, you'll know the guy really did a number on her. The guy should have just continued to endure till he will get the certificate he came for and leave the school. It's not going to be easy, but it's the smart decision.
I'm sitting on the fence for the main time.
We need more details.

It's bad in it's entirety bro, no matter what her case might be.
All these kind of mentality is the reason mob action is on the rise in our society, I am not a lecturer but you should stand and condemn what is wrong, no sitting on the fence!!
Even when those below me, does wrong, I can never resort to this manner of senselessness you are promulgating
There are better proper ways, avenues and authorities to handle things!
That's why in developed countries and currently in many Nigerian private schools, you don't just beat up a child no matter what he does and you can't say we are better off than them because our teachers do beat us while growing up!
PLEASE STOP SUPPORTING THIS KINDA EVIL!!!

He has openly rejected the conduct of the Election, probably preparing for court!

You say, Nigerian women cannot make the sacrifice that white women make to make their homes work??

White women, the leaders of Me Too and the Feminist movement?? In terms of racking shoulders with men, black women dey learn work. Nigerian women haven’t even began apprenticeship.
Self hate is shining very brightly because you seem to assume everything white as good.

So why do the Nigerian guys over there prefer to date those whites than their fellow black ladies?
Our understanding of feminism down here is quite different from theirs!

cococandy:
In a very Godly way too.

He doesn’t like satanic laws like equality.
But murder is Holy Spirit sanctioned

Truth remains that many Nigerian women cannot make the sacrifices the white do to make their home work, many are interested in equality of headship but not financially and some are being selfish, even over there, the man's money is for the home and hers is for her!
Not ruling out the fact that many men went abroad with the old African mentality of marriage which isn't obtainable over there!
The last time I visited the states, NY in particular, we went for a show by one yoruba artiste, there are so many single Nigerian girls, while the single guys are scared of dating, let alone marrying them, they even prefer the whites!!

cococandy:
Right. I take it that God’s law endorses murdering your spouse too doesn’t it?

He doesn't mean it

Penguin2:
It’s not all the time we should criticize. Sometimes we need to use our head.

These redeployments are good and necessary.

Egbunike being from Anambra shouldn’t be heading a tactical team of security agencies to coordinate election security in Anambra. There’s no way he won’t have interest in who should win.

Again, if any of the political parties had succeeded in compromising either Egbunike or the AIG, then this is bad market because it will no longer work.

A lot can happen within 24 hrs but I don’t see the likelihood of the new head being compromised within 24 hours.

With all said and done, best wishes to Ndi Anambra!

They were being pressured by the Imo state governor and Anambra APC counterpart for some dirty moves but they are doing strong head and redeployed this eleventh hour
For some days now, their redeployment were being targeted by the APC stalwarts in the state!

Nonsense dey worry ur head. We get plenty people wey innocent wey dey prison wey dis useless impostors fit fight for dem human rights, dem leave dos ones come dey pursue terrorist wey kill and burn down Lagos.

Una tink say na joke. International community kor, intercontinental ni. If saharareporters write from today and drop a billion phantom names, the terrorist go still face our justice system. Shiorr

Sorry my dear
Sounds deluded...

Britain wey open arm to receive a fugitive and so tey allow the terrorist dey tell his fellow terrorist to go kill people and burn down Lagos don forfeit dem seat for the table. As tins stand nau, the case of dis terrorist na internal matter. UK consul kor, X- box console ni. Shiorr

The way you guys reason here is so senseless, no matter who is involved, it is obligatory to respect court orders or at least pretend to respect it especially when intern. community is involved.(in a democratic setting)
In UN, Nigeria sits on the committee of Rule of Law and respect of human rights, and she fought to be on this committee, what then is she portraying?
Does she deserve to be on that committee??
It maybe anybody tomorrow, let's not make this a norm!!

God's spokesperson

Where are we heading to in this country?

Ovamboland:
You believe this PWC report but disbelief the same PWC report on power sector illiquidity that Modrov has been sharing since.
Beliefs or disbelief without counter data can be sincerely wrong.

Later learnt from him it was PWC that gave the report he shared, so I have got nothing to discredit on his report because I believed PWC to be genuine.

On a general opinion, our govt of the day should be mindful of how everything inflates in price simultaneously bringing untold hardship on the citizens, some of these increments can be gradual
Also they lack accountability and transparency on how these incomes are being utilized after sucking the citizens to get more running cost, our recurrent expenditure and debt servicing is shadowy and overly excessive!

FolabiCash:
These guys shouldn't be tolerated at all ! Imagine the peanuts they paid to be a fully certified doctor and all they cry about is payment ! True , country is in a chaos but for once , we must speak the truth , if the medical education is that easy , why them no go Learn medicine for this same Dubai they're rushing to work ?

Call a spade a spade , they're swindling the govt and I think it's high time govt should stop funding medicine in federal schools.

There is no truth in what you said bro, how can you pay a graduate in Abuja or Lagos 120,000 naira a month and expect him to succeed on it, (and he is still expected to get married and have kids) let alone a Dr. that spent the long years in school with the rigours and stress of the profession
Even if you're not expecting the govt to pay what's obtained abroad, but what is being paid here is too small please, it should be improved!
Even the govt is barring them from working at private hospitals when they are with the govt.
It's a fact they don't pay in school for training what other counties pay but there are other things you've to consider
In my school, 130 students will be admitted in year 1 But around final year, we graduate between 60 to 80, that's to show you it's not really easy apart from the pay.
They don't even get trained like in other countries due to VERY poor facilities and poor conditions of learning!!

Modrov:
Discos have no choice.

All the discos have been running at a loss because they aren't allowed to charge cost reflective tariffs.

We may all complain, but the truth is if we want power 24 seven we have to pay the market price for power.

Or we could prevail on Buhari to reverse the privatisation of power in return for paying the discos and GENCOS billions in compensation for in essence breaking their contract
