ruffhandu: Na dem, hyenas. When a judge says she forgot her judgment at home, and because of that, case adjourned. Then late she comes out to sentence a man who steals N10 to death, meanwhile the other day she convicted a man of stealing 500m and sentences him to 2 years. Then we don't need to read the judgment. We have read it already.
Don't mind them, they are all part of the corrupt judicial system
Edygrin: The Association of Resident Doctors, Federal Capital Territory Administration (ARD-FCTA), has warned FCT minister, Nyesom Wike, that its members would embark on the ‘deadliest shutdown’ of hospitals in 14 days if outstanding demands are not met.
This is were he is supposed to attend to rather than building houses for judges that nobody sends him. They should shutdown, instead investing in the health sector he going around building houses for judges.
seunmsg: Oga Peter Obi and other obidient minors, oya come and cry about Tinubu as usual. Come and tell us how it was poverty that led to the stampede.
Those idiots rejoicing and politicizing the Ibadan incident as evident of Yoruba poverty can now hide their faces in shame. This is Anambra, the billionaires capital of SE and people are killing each other over mudu of rice.
Mumu rice you call it, how many you don give, it's a shame that you can make a statement like this, lately your comments make me feel you need urgent medical attention
Emekaonline: Many of you are just responding on account of your emotion and partisanship. If you think the party will lose this case, then you have no clue as to the way Nigeria politics operate. There is no way that man being used by Fubara in Rivers state can defeat the APC. The guy's tenure is even coming to an end by next year or 2026. Whichever way they pursue the case, APC will still win. I remember that was how Sherrif Momodu camp was happy when they were winning in court until the Supreme Court sent him packing. Just wait and see and please come back here by the time the mole in the party is beaten mercilessly
Can you tell me the reason why the other man you call a mole was removed from office because you know so much.
Bobloco: A Rivers State high court sitting in Port Harcourt has nullified the congresses of the All Progressives Congress in the state.
The court nullified the congress which produced Chief Tony Okocha, following a contempt of court proceeding filed by the camp of the reinstated chairman of the party in the state, Chief Emeka Beke.
The court had earlier issued an order stopping the conduct of the congresses in the state, but the APC went ahead to hold the exercise.
The embattled members of the party, who had secured the order, had returned to court, notifying it that the party had conducted the congresses despite the valid court order.
Justice Godswill Obomanu, after listening to the presentations and submissions of the counsel, nullified the congresses of the party.
Justice Obomanu expressed dismay at the party for going ahead with the congresses after a court had ordered that status quo be maintained in the matter.
He held that what the APC in the state did was trying to steal a match from the claimants.
The court stayed further proceedings in the matter and adjourned indefinitely.
BlessedGift: The President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, has provided insight into why President Bola Ahmed Tinubu nominated the former Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, to the Federal Executive Council (FEC), saying Abuja now like London.
drstranged: I'm just wondering if this court has jurisdiction over a matter concerning the local government of a state. Whoever advised this plaintiff is outrightly stupid with the plaintiff himself
Not only the advisers, but those also supporting the with comments are also stupid
You guys will never learn, what did the appeal court judgement say about the case, the federal high Court doesn't have the jurisdiction to entertain such cases.
Edygrin: President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio has declared that only those who are not in their right senses could sustain a fight with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike.
NwaorguF: A Call to Accountability: Emeka Woke Condemns Fubara’s Unfortunate Remarks against his benefactor and Leadership Missteps
In an alarming display of political naivety, the recent comments made by Governor Sir Siminilayi Fubara at the launch of projects in Ahoada and Etche have ignited outrage among the citizens of Rivers State. Engr. Chukwuemeka Woke, Director General of the National Oil Spill Detection and Response Agency (NOSDRA), did not hold back in his rebuke, reminding the governor of the allies who paved his way to power.
"To publicly denigrate those who stood by you is not just shortsighted; it's a betrayal," Woke declared. "The Governor's remarks reveal a troubling pattern of vindictiveness disguised as governance."
Woke specifically expressed concern over Fubara's cancellation of contracts with those he labels as "enemies," despite their proven competence. "What message does that send?" he asked. "To cancel projects not based on performance, but on petty political squabbles, is a dangerous precedent and egregious executive impunity at its worst."
He pointedly criticized the Governor's dismissal of vital infrastructure projects by mocking a road constructed in Omuma Local Government Area, labeling it a “Farm Road that leads to nowhere.” "This kind of rhetoric is unbecoming for a Chief Executive," Woke countered. "How can you belittle essential infrastructure that connects farmers to markets, while simultaneously promising new contracts for road projects to aid transportation? This is hypocrisy draped in ignorance."
Moreover, Woke took issue with Fubara's recent jabs at Nigerian youths who leverage social media as a platform for engagement. By referring to a young man as a "Data boy" simply for voicing concerns about poor road quality and project delivery, the Governor has illustrated a profound disconnect from the evolving societal landscape. "Labeling a young citizen attempting to hold you accountable reveals an alarming lack of respect for the voices of the next generation. Rather than dismissing their contributions, our leaders should listen, engage, and learn from them."
Continuing his critique, Woke addressed Fubara's lack of respect for his predecessor, Chief Barrister Nyesom Wike. "To ridicule Wike's work, especially when it provides substantial benefits to the community, is not just factually incorrect but disingenuous. If anything, it shows a failure to acknowledge the foundations laid before you. Your promise of new infrastructure rings hollow when you mock the existing projects that enhance the lives of Rivers people." To even give a thought of not executing any project in Wike's community, if he were a bad person, speaks volumes of the governor's insidious nature that should be worrisome to the public, particularly those who barely know him. We were all deceived by his pretentious disposition while he served as the Account General of the state, having been promoted above his contemporaries by Wike.
Offering advice to the Governor, Woke emphasized, “It’s clear that maturity in leadership requires more than a title. Understanding the weight of your decisions is crucial; only through prudent governance can you truly represent the people’s interests.”
Woke went on to suggest that, instead of sidelining past allies, Fubara should aspire to unite the state by fostering collaboration and learning from the experiences of those who came before him. “The people are looking to their leaders for integrity and wisdom. A wise leader knows that enduring relationships and mutual respect are vital for effective governance.”
In a poignant conclusion, Woke stated, “We sympathize with the Governor for being thrust into leadership under less-than-ideal circumstances. However, he must realize that leadership is not merely about filling shoes but understanding the nuances of governance. A wise adage reminds us: it is only when a child washes his hands well that he is fit to dine with elders. The Governor must take stock of the speed bumps on his journey.
Wike that stopped a Road construction because of political differences for years people suffered driving through etche through origwe for years, but Fubara has completed the Road, Wike has done worse please face your job.
Eteka1: keep deceiving yourself. You think everything goes by social media noise-making.
Almost one year no salary or allowance they think they are still lawmakers, they should go ahead and impeach the governor since they have the numbers, they keep dancing from pillars to post, according to Fubara they are gone, and gone forever. By next week Fubara would present the budget to Jumbo led house of assembly.

Keep seizing, but alcohol VAT will not be shared with you guys, others will not sell and the money shared with you, if you can openly reject the VAT from alcohol sales then we know you guys are serious. And they should stop taking alcoholic drinks to the north to sell simple.
[quote author=CapitalLens post=133272397][/quote]This is the federal capital, why don't they have better and well equipped security vehicles than this pickups all the time.
Softmirror: There were Professors who found it difficult to read the numbers out when presenting at the coalition center during election. There is no big deal to this. The truth is, numbers are difficult to transliterate in words when the figures are many.
One will think he couldn't read simple English and that is the reason for the mockery.
Jmoore, you will stammer if I give you some figures to read in words.
Though the governor should have rehearsed before hand, or the figures should have been written in words well spelt out.
Those figures were also written in words, we stop defending nonsense that guy is dull and an illiterate
Madam clean up your house majority of your judges are the one bringing all the bad names to your arm of government. When a judge knows he doesn't have the jurisdiction to entertain a case and goes ahead to give a judgement or injunction that judge should immediately be asked to resign, you don't punish them rather you are threatening people from speaking up. Please do the needful and leave the public alone
Gistmedia10: Reality TV star and influencer Natacha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has taken a bold step in closing a chapter of her past by removing a tattoo of Nigerian music superstar Davido from her chest. The tattoo, which sparked widespread conversations and admiration when she initially unveiled it, has now been erased through laser treatment.
Tacha reportedly underwent the procedure at a top-notch laser clinic, sharing glimpses of the process on her social media pages. Fans and followers couldn’t help but speculate on her reasons, with some suggesting it symbolizes personal growth, while others think it’s a subtle way of moving on from old sentiments.
The tattoo, once a tribute to the award-winning singer, had been a defining element of her persona during her time in the limelight. Its removal has sparked mixed reactions among netizens. While some applauded her decision, others expressed nostalgia for the era it represented.
As the reality star continues to evolve, her fans remain curious about what prompted the decision. Tacha, however, seems unbothered by the chatter, confidently embracing the new chapter in her life.
Cxmanluvs: Wike will never regrets his deals with Asiwaju in 2024 Presidential election. He's Limelight is more than some vice-President (Now former) when they were in government (e.g Sambo & Jonathan)
Wike's chance in this administration will make many other opposition Leaders to trust and have deal with Asiwaju in 2027 for re-election knowing fully well Asiwaju rewards hardworking and loyalty.
2027 is a done deal. The hateful people will wail till 2031 Insha Allah.
Richie6: Tell me the political post he was holding back then? Be guided and go and read the new electoral laws interpreted by the supreme court.
Infact there should be no conditions for defection rather after defecting resign and go home. The laws should be amended to stop this nonsense, and when you defect you can not seek reelection in 8yrs.
givedemwotowoto: Unfortunately, there is clear, documented leadership crisis in LP which justifies their defections. Section 68(1)(g) of the constitution justifies defection due to division within the party.
Can you name the two groups and their party chairmen
