Beetobee:
What's the raving and ranting for? You are addressed by the way you dress. In Nigerian Law School, the security personnel are always at the entrance of the lecture theater to ensure strict adherence to the dress code. I remember when Rear Admiral Mike Akhigbe, one time number two citizen in Nigeria almost missed being called to Bar because of his trousers.

is d university having a dress code...

Commentor:
I had my masters degree in UK, please state where you were educated?

I can say that I have seen miniskirts, tight wears, short cut tops but never a case of intimidation.

Give us examples of a secular university in the west that mandates a girl cannot dress as this lady did.

leave that myopic mind that's why They tag every guy with dreads irresponsible... what's is dress code

MiztaFabuloz:
This is the problem some Nigerians have. They have warned people from time in memorial to stop wearing military camouflage but they will never listen. Whether the police is wrong or not, the young man lost his life out of his own carelessness and disobedience. If he didn't wear the cap, police won't ever know him except he commits another offence.

May his soul rest in peace anyway

just shut up if u have nothing to write...

why can't we even ask why we have only 13 justices instead of 21 as stipulated...

NJPot:
Even with the so called total valid votes which the Apex Court based its ruling which however exceeded the total accredited voters by INEC, Senator Hope Uzodinma did not also fulfill the constitutional requirements for a validly elected governor of the state, having failed to score at least one-quarter of the votes cast in each of the at least two-thirds of all the local government areas in the state.

Secondly, the same Supreme court said Uche Nwosu was the real APC candidate and his petition was withdrawn on the basis that he has both AA and APC as the governorship candidates. This means that Hope Uzodimma is the governorship candidate of no party. How can he be governor without party.
Therefore, Uche Nwosu and Hope Uzodimma never contested election in the face of the law. The case is now between Ihedioha and Ararume. The statutory 2/3rd requirements would be met by Ihedioha since UcheNwosu and Hope Uzodimma is out of the way.

Even if the Imo election is cancelled, the rerun would be between Ihedioha and Ararume. Even Ararume's method of emergence as the APGA candidate is also wrong in the face of the Nigerian constitution. So, if the supreme court wants to redeem their image, all they need to do is to declare Ihedioha winner and sentence Hope to life imprisonment for forgery and deceiving the elites.

I Don hear why didn't u go defend ihedioha initially...

NJPot:
Useless man. Face your state. Leave Imo State alone. Ihedioha is our governor.

ihedioha didn't even win that election... he failed to meet the statutory 2/3rd requirements... the best decision for me would have been a new Election... while for bayelsa the deputy governor should be substituted

babytoun:
I just read the suit Timi filed ...he is actually asking for cancellation of the pdp primaries because it fell short of electoral guidelines ..

The other interesting thing about the suit is that Timi's request to transfer the suit to Abuja has been granted...some interesting times await ..

I expect Jonathan to talk to Timi anyway ...even Atiku will have to come in and pacify timi

did u ask gej to talk 2 Heineken...allow Timi to exercise his right

fergie001:
Yesterday's events pained The Nation newspaper.....they reported the barring of Douye at INEC HQs, most of the Bayelsa news they promoted yesterday was the violent part.


Dem go deh alright las las.....

Alaibe, withdraw your case, and be a statesman nah.

withdraw wetin if im be governor na bad thing

bigiyaro:
did you read the part where he said the landlord claimed he has never lived in that house?

is the landlord staying there?

Neoteny:
I've said the same thing in many other threads.

A lot of Nigerians love stuff for free, including electricity. They contest any amount on their bills and complain of being ripped off, and even when the bill is fair they usually settle a token amount (roughly the average residential customer pays between 2k and 3k), or none at all, and demand for meter. When they finally get their prepay meters, they proceed to tamper with, or bypass, these meters just to get something for nothing. And the same customers will say Nigeria is not working, leaders are corrupt etc. They bribe DisCo staff to wipe or adjust their debt, or bribe to have their bills lowered. As if stealing energy is neither theft nor corruption.

the discos have their own too there are times pple don't have light yet bills are sent... in situations like this tenant landlord and phcn must compromise certainly not all d accumulated bills can be paid a certain Percentage should be written off as bad debts...our area we had no light for a period of over 6 months yet bills were coming... do u Now expect pple 2 respond 2 accumulated bills wholeheartedly... provide meters quit estimated billing which is fraud... then anyone who defaults should pay...landlord monitor ur house 2 ensure dubious tenants don't do anyhow...

microservice:
OP. Don’t listen to the people insulting you for not bribing the PHCN official. You did the right thing. This same thing happened to me last year and my landlord was proving difficult. I just paid the bill and removed it from his rent. From what I gathered, he was aware of the bypass.
Just make sure you get a lawyer to write him and keep the receipts. You have no business paying a debt you didn’t acquire.

and if the landlord isn't aware uncore... what should happen...

achymmania:
I can boldly say that a lot of people here on NL don’t understand a bit of Nigeria politics. Obaseki accepting reconciliation team means he’s accepted defeat. Just wait and see, obaseki is not going to win the primary. Before you insult me with your 10mb given to you by mtn, just know that I’m not in support of any politician. I just gave my own calculation base on the maths on the table.

politics isn't maths anything can happen...lets watch don't write off obaseki apc has it all 2 lose if de don't thread cautiously...

big7:
You lack truthful saying.. You forgot to make mention that good luck removed ihejirika as the COAS? say it as it is and replaced by who? Go find out... Na your assignment be that

by minimah from his state bayelsa Christian southerner

mu2sa2:
This man is being honest with himself. On average each wife has about 7 children. So in all this family consists of 32 individuals, not counting extended family members. Large families isn't
peculiar to muslims or hausa/fulanis or the north. Believe it or not, i used to know a calabar woman married to a yoruba man and they have 13 children - they're Christians. Typically, Igbo women tend to have large number of children also. So those talking population explosion ought to know that contributors cut across tribe and religion.

and it should continue that way right... are u justifying his nonsense

Kendroid:
And what if she's from Abia but married to Borno?

u shouldn't have replied that bigoted soul... a woman has lived in borno for over 3 decades na now dem go kill her... so much for useless sentiments

mushystuff:
Did they apply for jobs and weren't given? Did the Igbos in the SW stay home and get employed? Please lose the useless entitlement mentality.

many states don't employ non indigene...except few like Lagos and recently kaduna others na on contract...

MelesZenawi:
I didn't hear level 12...you guys lie a lot.

She said NCE...which she obtained as far as 2002.

How is 2002 recent to you..

Nigeria a country full of people bending the truth.

e tire me Pikin born 2002 don finish secondary or university self... nawa ooo...

Ezewuzie01:
T.A. Orji who even sacked teachers who were Igbo because they were not Abia indigenes. This kind of gesture will be impossible in Igboland. We Igbos hate ourselves deeply talk more of loving others.

how did the apprenticeship system succeed then with igbos if they hate themselves as u claim...

Babacele:
God bless you sir, Your Excellency. This is the kind of mentality that would make us grow as a nation. I look forward to more of such days ahead when a T.A . Orji would extend such gesture to an Hausa speaking woman in Abia. God bless Nigeria.

your coconut head should have told u ikpeazu is now abia state governor but cos u want to get useless likes u must type nonsense... is 31 years 31 days...

TheExecutioner:
Congratulations. Maybe now you will stop suffering running stomach on top Amotékun.

Just watch and see the responsible and mature way that SW, SS, SE and Middle Belt leadership and cultural groups will react to this news. They will react by minding their own business, unlike the cow mentality reaction we saw when Amotékun was launched.

which of the north is it north central, north west or east... cos this report isn't complete..the north is Neva one

DMerciful:
One of the most admirable virtues of a Judge is courage!
This is what a supreme court does, not the supreme shame we have under Tanko

am sure you didn't see where the judgement says mutharika should stay in power til a new elections take place... what kinda judgment is that the president is supposed to step down and let d head of parliament take over...

Ifesinachi22:
Brits named them _Burma,_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Myanmar!

Brits named them _Upper Volta,_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Burkina Faso,_ which means Land of Incorruptible People!

Brits named them _Gold Coast_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Ghana!_

Brits named them _Southern Rhodesia_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Zimbabwe!_

Brits named them _Northern Rhodesia,_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Zambia!_

Brits named them _Tanganyika_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Tanzania!_

Germans named them _colony of South West Africa,_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Namibia!_

France named them _Dahomey_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _Benin!_

Belgium named them _Zaire_ they rejected it, restructured and renamed themselves _DRC_ or _Democratic Republic of Congo!_

And the list goes on and on and on.....!

But Brits named a bunch of people _Nigeria_ and _they will rather kill to preserve it than restructure and give them selves a befitting name

"It is only an animal that bears the name that is given to it by his enemy___ _Igbo Proverb_

the name is nothing... so stop this talmabout sermon how better are these countries even with name change... is it same drcongo that immerse in wars and led by kabila for years... focus on important issue of restructuring or preaching for a functional Nigeria

murmee:
That is not the point. The point is, Motorbikes are not made for commercial transportation!

they were made for what...

Yusuf4:
This happens in North and West unlike in East because you will never find a Yoruba or an Hausa man doing well in Igbo land. They will never build even a self contain apartment in Igbo land. They also don’t know how to mingle or even join local politics of other tribes. Igbo men on the other hands, call anywhere they’re their home.

Go to Lagos, Igbos who don’t even have properties in their State build mansions in Lagos.
They progress so fast and tends to mingle, integrate with their host community.

Go to Taraba state, politicians borrow money from Uche Obi. Late Gov Danbaba had to even give him a whole Stadium to manage to recover the money Taraba Govt owned him. He owns 30% of all the Petrol stations in Taraba and some in Neighboring Yola.

Chikason also is a very popular and wealthy man in Kano.

see your life... I serve in idemili south I saw Yoruba guys who are doing well in business and other crafts even speak better igbo... a particular Yoruba man has the best hospital in a certain IMO local govt... ignorance is a big disease stop it

olaric:
Come to the west, Lagos does it, in the north too Bornu has done it. The only region that has never done it before and I stand to be corrected is the east.

you are ignorant ebonyi state has done it before,anambra under Willie has done it too..even enugu... applaud zulum and move on from this useless fault finding...

Larryndelaw:
Let me tell you. The case is the guy against cross River and not against the fed govt. Go and read the case very well. Also it was the chief Justice of cross river that initiated the case. If the case is against the federal government while trying him in cross River? Why is federal government name not mentioned in the case.
Think bro. The governor is a fool

I Don hear u oooo the federal govt is d main culprit here they should come out clean simple...

SeedofDavid:
That story is incomplete but everyone is running with what satisfies them.

give us the complete story..

Stalwert:
.. especially the so called NGOs most of them are PDP, when they talk to PMB they order him when they speak to PDP governors and members they put sir, please, abeg.... They are partisan and dishonest.

oga this case is on federal govt ayade has no issue here u guys shd dissect things well...

seunmsg:
The way some of you react to issue is always amusing. You just post shiit just for the sake of posting. For all that was wrong with Ganduje’s election, the court still affirmed it as valid and credible enough. Jibrin’s election on the other hand was adjudged not valid and credible enough.

I like Jibrin but he made a terrible mistake that even a rookie politician shouldn’t have made. Ganduje campaigned for him and deployed the party machinery to ensure his victory when things were looking very bad for him. Two weeks later, he couldn’t even wait for INEC to officially declare a winner before he took to Twitter to throw Ganduje under the bus. He was very disloyal and he got exactly what awaits every double faced politicians.

The least he should have done was to keep quiet instead of trying to use his leader to score cheap political points.

buy it was OK to go against dogara then whom they were in same party then.. did u fault him for going against dogara... on d flip side it's a shame how astute guys like jibril can't make it back 2 d house...

ovadozes:
Even at 10,000 pounds, it's still big money.
Doctors in the UK earn between 120,000 to 240,000 pounds per year and are still regarded as one of the highest paid.

can u now see why assu should stop disturbing us with too much pay chants except they wanna fight student victimization and harassment...

RareDiamond:
Nawa for this ridiculously unjust judgement by the Supreme Court. This judicial rascality must stop.

Still on the Supreme Court ruling on Imo Guber Election: (Why the Supreme Court must reverse itself)

The law is settled as decided by the same Supreme Court in Buhari v. INEC (2008); that "weight can hardly be attached to a document tendered in evidence by a witness who cannot or is not in a position to answer questions on the document. One of such persons the law identifies is the one who did not make the document. Such a person is adjudged in the eyes of the law as ignorant of the content of the document”.

Questions for the CJN, Justice Tanko and other Supreme Court Justices:

1. Does the Supreme Court have powers to formulate and allocate votes as election results?

2. Were the said results certified by INEC as required by law?

3. Did Hope Uzodinma call 388 witnesses from the 388 polling units to speak to the results to obviate the principle of dumping which the Supreme Court used against the PDP and her candidate, Atiku Abubarka, in the last Presidential Appeal.

4. Were the presiding officers and or party agents of the 388 polling units called to testify by Uzodinma/APC, who were the Petitioners?

5. What are the figures from each of the various 388 polling units generated and allocated to Hope Uzodinma/APC by the Supreme Court?

6. Is the Supreme Court saying that all the votes from the alleged 388 polling units were for the APC alone in an election that was contested by over 70 candidates?

does the Supreme court have powers to cancel votes for apc in zamfara state at all levels?
