Nigerians will not forgive ICC if they failed to arrest this man after the expiration of his tenure in 2023 to answer for his crime against humanity.
Much as I no longer have Buhari's back like I used to, let me ask you: when would Obasanjo be arrested for Odi and Zaki Biam? When would Jonathan be arrested for Ezu River massacre in Anambra?

If you people think the ICC would even sneeze in Nigeria's direction, you're probably the most delusional people alive. They've not even spoken about Rohingya or Gaza or Libya or Iraq or Afghanistan. Bush and Blair are still walking freely to this day, yet you people think they'd give a Bleep about Buhari or Nigeria.

Some of you are just too ignorant of what's happening in the world you live in.

Can someone please explain the obvious to this guy? He seems genuinely lost by a very simple issue.
I wondered what the guy meant by that question. Isn't ipobs very own mantra *the zoo must fall*?

Perhaps that mantra is interpreted by him as *Nigeria must prosper*.

You're trying to tell us you aren't aware the soldiers are Femi's friends? You don't seem to know his international reach. He's one of the most influential Nigerians in case you're not aware.

Laycon may not be one of the most intelligent in Nigeria but in that house? He is definitely not one of the dullest

Why are these lilipods trying to force people into believing that Laycon has anything beyond average?

What exactly has Laycon done to show any level of exceptional intelligence?

According to the op, he read philosophy, so that qualifies him for that recognition.

Laycon is a dull boy, mentally and emotionally.

“We must build bridges and not burn them. We must have the courage to talk to those who we may disagree with but who genuinely feel hurt and aggrieved and bring them back to the table.

“We must find a more civilised and humane way to resolve our differences.”
Ffk has yet to tell his fans the reason behind his change in tone these days. He was one of those people responsible for inflaming the situation, making these people think they could face off with gun toting soldiers or policemen, urging them to hate and maintain their belligerent posturing.

Since he was given that chieftaincy title, he started singing a different tone, sounding totally unlike whom we knowhim to be. I am guessing an appointment is in the offing. It is sad we warned these people never to take an idiot like ffk serious, a dopeheaded political jober we all knew was out only to find a source of meal tickets, but they NEVER listened- now, here we are.

Kanu is no different from your typical Nigerian politician, and like I will always say, if you die for him, you die an idiot.

Well, Mr Kanu was still screaming for a boycott of the last election, and he has been active since the GEJ administration.

Also, Atiku, while commited to one Nigeria was at least promising some restructuring which some see as a stepping stone to Biafra, albeit slowly, which is why many ipobites voted for him last year.(Mr Kanu on the other hand wasn't convinced)
Atiku promised RESTRUCTURING where? huh

Nothing like jealousy here, u need to read how trum cheated his siblings.

When Donald Trump's father, Fred Sr., died in 1999, the roughly $20 million inheritance was divided up among his children and their descendants, "other than my son Fred C. Trump Jr.," according to the Times.

Donald Trump had helped draft the will. At the time, Freddy Trump's children sued, claiming Donald Trump and his siblings had used "undue influence" over their grandfather, who had dementia.

Donald retaliated by withdrawing the medical benefits he had promised to his nephew's infant son, who suffered from seizures that led to cerebral palsy, according to the Times.



"I was angry because they sued," Trump told the Times. The suit was settled "very amicably," he added.

Foreign Affairs › Maryanne Barry: Trump's Sister Criticized Him In Leaked Audio Record by omenka(op): 8:13am On Aug 23, 2020
In a secret recording by Donald Trump's niece, the most scathing criticism yet of Trump's administration and personality, has been revealed to be coming from nowhere else but Trump'sfamily members themselves.

In the recording made available to the press,
Maryanna, Donald Trump's older sister,
was heard calling him "cruel", a "phoney" and a "liar", and also suggesting that he had his SATs written for him.

New York Times has more:

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s older sister, a former federal judge, is heard sharply criticizing her brother in a series of recordings released Saturday, at one point saying of the president, “He has no principles.”

Maryanne Trump Barry was secretly recorded by her niece, Mary Trump, who recently released a book denouncing the president, “Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man.” Mary Trump said Saturday she made the recordings in 2018 and 2019.

In one recording, Barry, 83, says she had heard a 2018 interview with her brother on Fox News in which he suggested that he would put her on the border to oversee cases of immigrant children separated from their parents.

“His base, I mean my God, if you were a religious person, you want to help people. Not do this,” Barry says.

At another point she says: “His goddamned tweet and lying, oh my God." She adds: “I’m talking too freely, but you know. The change of stories. The lack of preparation. The lying. Holy shit.”

Barry can also be heard saying that she guesses that her brother has never read her opinions on immigration cases.

“What has he read?” Mary Trump asks her aunt.

Barry responds: “No. He doesn’t read."

The recordings were first reported by The Washington Post. The Associated Press then obtained the recordings.

The recordings came to light just a day after the late Robert Trump, brother to Maryanne and the president, was memorialized in a service at the White House. Later, the president was dismissive of the recordings.

“Every day it’s something else, who cares. I miss my brother, and I’ll continue to work hard for the American people,” Trump said in a statement. “Not everyone agrees, but the results are obvious. Our country will soon be stronger than ever before.”

In the weeks since the release of Mary Trump’s tell-all book about her uncle, she has been questioned about the source of some of its information. Nowhere in the book does she say that she recorded conversations with her aunt. On Saturday, Mary Trump revealed that she had covertly taped 15 hours of face-to-face conversations with Barry.

“Mary realized members of her family had lied in prior depositions,” said Chris Bastardi, a spokesman for Mary Trump. He added: “Anticipating litigation, she felt it prudent to tape conversations in order to protect herself."

The president has frequently spoken highly of his sister; the recordings are the first time a family member, outside of Mary Trump, has been critical of him.

The recordings illuminate the tension between the president and his sister. At one point Barry says to her niece: “It’s the phoniness of it all. It’s the phoniness and this cruelty. Donald is cruel.”

Mary Trump’s book was filled with attacks on her uncle, including the assertion — he denied it — that he paid someone to take the SATs for him as he sought to transfer into the University of Pennsylvania.

In one recording, the federal judge says that a Joe Shapiro took the test for Trump. The president was friends with a person at Penn named Joe Shapiro, who is deceased. Shapiro’s widow and sister told have said he never took a test for anybody.

Bastardi said of Mary Trump: "She never expected to learn much of what she heard, including the president’s sister, federal judge Maryanne Trump Barry, state that Donald Trump had paid someone to take an SAT exam for him.”

It is beyond taxation. Issues such as accountability, national security, money laundering, adherence to corporate governance and best practices etc are involved.

It is important to note that not all incomes of religious organizations are exempted from taxes. Income generated from commercial activities are subject to tax and salaries paid to the clergy are also subject to PAYE. Sadly, most religious organizations always hide some of these informations from government because their books are never subjected to government scrutiny.

Money laundering is another major issue. People steal government funds and lauded same through the accounts of NGOs. Last year, the US government indicted a big player in the aviation industry of using his private NGOs to launder millions of dollars into the US.


National security is another area. How do you think Boko Haram keeps getting funds and even moving funds around their various cells without detection? They use sympathetic religious organizations. How will government fight terrorism without monitoring these organizations?
Read comments on the first, second and third pages and couldn't find anyone who truly understands the ramifications of the new Law, neither do they its importance.

I was disappointed seeing how little Nigerians understand what is going on with these bodies until I saw your comment.

I can't speak for Mosques, but I know for a fact politicians launder millions through churches and NGOs. Some politicians come together to even raise a "pastor", build a church for him, and then "grow" the financial base of the church (laundering their monies) while paying the GOs certain percentages.

The story is the same with NGOs but a bit less opaque than what obtains in churches. Even Muslim politicians launder monies in churches!

Nigerians are really ignorant of the things happening out there and it pains me so much.

MsAllison:
omenka you're contradicting yourself
you're here preaching how youths are glorifying corrupt politicians but here you are trying to defend same corrupt politician or can you swear with your life that Tinubu is not as corrupt or even more than an average politician in Nigeria?
you see your problem and other youths that claims to be against bad politicians.
fact is that an average youth is wired with this "my thief is more holier than yours" when it comes to supporting politicians.
You're not excluded.
with this mindset among the youths
I doubt the salvation of this country.
What part of what I wrote suggests I support any criminal?

Reno himself is a criminal and we recently had revelations about big crooks from his backyard. When we turn the issue of corruption into a political one, the last think we should expect is any progress in terms of anticorruption crusade.

Was Reno deaf and dumb over the NDDC malfeasance? Do you see me praising Buhari, Tinubu or anyone else for that matter, when it comes to fighting corruption? Haven't I on several occassions criticized Buhari and APC over their failures in the fight against corruption and insecurity? Do you see pdp supporters like Reno or the rest of the clan on nairaland attempt the same?

What has Reno ever said about Alison Madueke?

It is foolhardy expecting any gains to be made in this regard if we keep thinking our searchlights can only be beamed on those we consider our political rivals.

Reno is a fvkcing joke. Corruption we must fight, yes, but not as advocated by such a sleazy character.

Is Omokiri not from the same region where revelations about grand larceny and corruption were made just a couple of weeks ago?

Oh well, if folks think this nonsense is the way to go about fighting corruption, let they be my guest.

You saw a Bullion van, you had no idea what its contents were, but you have a problem with that and desire for the *owner* to be incarcerated. Right in your own doorstep, papers were tendered showing how your uncles and aunts stole monies running into 45 billion naira, but that is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

Like I said in my last thread, these attacks would only improve the political fortunes of Tinubu, and make Yorubas push back more than they ever did. It is totally counterproductive.
