Some are settled out of courts e.g Kunle Kalejaiye (SAN) Vs TheNews, Tinubu Vs AIT etc

princeFAD:
Can someone please state how many libel cases that has been prosecuted successfully in Nigeria. We only hear when the case is instituted but we never hear the outcome.

Bros, this matter doesn't concern Buhari at all.

It was a court that ordered the interim (temporary) forfeiture.

LabDNA:
Suspend your judiciary and stop deceiving yourself that you have a judicial system. Let the lawyers and judges go home and rest and let your buhari take over every judicial matter.

When he farts, plaintiff wins, if he chews gworo, defendant wins. Case closed!

What of Kwankwanso and Tambuwal?

PrecisionFx:
This is my own point, It isn't connected to ur own point.

Sowore.
Dino Melanye.
Saraki.
Atiku.
Etc.

Should enjoy their changi dole.

Simple.

I don't know some people like supporting anything evil in this country.

UtuokeAlcoholic:
My Yeastern OSU brothers, one of our own has been touched. Let's all gather together to defend him.

Don't mind that LabDNA guy.

He is one of those guys from a region of Nigeria that always support anything that's against the country and criticize any action by this incumbent Government.

jahsharon:
Is this how politicians loot and steal in advanced climes? Drastic looting of treasury requires drastic action

Why are you concerned about APC members crying?
Allow any corrupt Nigerian face the music Biko!

OoniOfIfe:
Its Saraki 2day because he is a PDP member but APC should remember that what goes around comes around. A party who claims to fight corruption but yet Senator Goje #25 Billion EFCC case was canceld, Akpabio is now a minister, Orji is now a senator without any investigation, Gandollar was never investigated, Tinubu bullion van case has died low. APC should not cry foul when PDP captures power nd start victimising them cos they ar d one who laid d foundation

There wasn't Satan at the beginning.
From my research, Satan emerged from a middle level buraucratic officer in Heaven to an all time powerful anti-God deity about 4000 years ago.

Abraham, Isaac and Jacob didn't mention any Satan in their era.

Bigiyo:
But I was expecting to see Satan gan gan...
What if there's no Satan sef?
Just think about it

I once heard a confession by an Ex-deputy Satan later turned a firebrand Evangelist that the real Satan was overthrown briefly in a palace coup.

Danwakae:
I was expecting to see the Real Satan

In the Nigerian Constitution, it's the political parties that contest elections.

These major political parties have structures, members, supporters and fans in every ward and streets.
They are the ones that mobilize many citizens to vote.

IGBOSON1:
Hehehehehe

In that case it wouldn't be up to PDP or APC and all that comes with them.....but up to the people of Kogi to decide!

What's the electoral value of Mr Kola Ologbondiyan?




Even if an election is conducted by the UN in Kogi State, he can't win a Local Government chairmanship election.

cleenz:
But PDP had Mr Kola Ologundiyan, their Publicity secretary in Kogi & still lose governorship & now Senate (Dino)

Not really having strong men on ground.

It's the umpire

qquote author=IGBOSON1 post=84513741]

Spot on!

Of course they will leave a few states (like the south-east for instance) for them so it's not too obvious!

Also, winning/keeping those states in the south-south and south-west in the next round of elections depends on each particular state in question or the entire region/zone having a 'strongman' capable of doing the needful! The south-west region/zone is covered in the person of Tinubu! In the south-south they have Sylva for Bayelsa and Oshomole for Edo...that's about it! They would struggle to get Cross-River (unless Ayade goes rouge), Akwa-Ibom and Delta! Rivers state they can get, but a lot of blood would be spilled before it goes to APC...and as can be seen from Kogi, they don't seem to have any scrupples in that regard!

This man has come again with him wahala

MelesZenawi:
He should remove that cap from his head...What a mess..

And put their normal Ijebu high tension cap.

That's good but not all.How will his sexual needs be met?

The guy needs love and sex too

poshestmina:
Wow
Can't imagine what you are going through...I can only pray for God to strengthen you.
Being positive isn't the end of your life bro.

Take your medications religiously and live a healthy lifestyle.

God will see you through.

Didn't you see the Attestation of Result by WAEC and Cambridge in addition to the statements of results sheet released by his School?

The Election Tribunal, Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court ALL trashed out this unfounded allegations.

In any case, Buhari's subsequent military education and training is far more superior to O/L.

Above all, the Constitution is very explicit on the criteria for eligibility for elections in Nigieria.

Racoon:
This if true, then has reconfirmed the Buhari lie that he presented his alleged secondary school (WAEC) certificate to the Military Sec.during admission into the NMTC in 1962.Hence committed perjury & should be prosecuted.

Buhari simply never possessed a school certificate then but as expected the cover up note by his then Principal @ the Provincial Sec. Schl Kastina gave him the leverage he need to enlist into the army since this is the admission criteria then if JC Ojukwu assertion here is true.

So why is he lying he possessed same many years after because of desperation for political power?

Even the late Maj.Adewale Ademoyega talked about tight scrutinizing of the entrance certificates of southern candidates while their northern counterparts were upbeat about their being admitted into the then NMTC because of the unmerited "Quota System" of admission.("Why We Struck" ).

This is the problem with liars.They don't know when the tell multiple lies just to cover a lie.

You obviously don't know what you are saying.

Tafawa Balewa ,Ahmadu Bello , SL Akintola , Awolowo didn't aquired mansions like our modern day Politicians.

Tafawa Balewa in particular died with only one mud house in his home town!

Gandollaar:
They didn't have mansions in Dubai and London because it was not fashionable to do so then. But they had mansions doted all over their areas of influence. They all stole what they could.

Jubril has returned to Sudan and the real Buhari has come back to Aso Rock.

hakeemhakeem:
Pls what happened to JUBRIL of SUDAN? I haven't heard anything about him after election

The way you people used Billionaire carelessly is misleading.
1) As at Independence in 1960, there was no single millionaire in Nigeria ( based on Pounds Sterling).

2) As at 1987 when Awolowo died, there was no Billionaire (in Dollars or Naira) in Nigieria and Awo wasn't even among the first 100 richest Nigerians.

3) Even as at now, most Governors who left offices in 2007 are now very broke and can't be among the first 100 richest Nigerians.

4) Embezzling money can't make you a Billionaire because if you don't have enterpreneurial skills, the money will be finished within 10 years of leaving power.

5) Embezzlement is a SHORT term path to wealth and unless you are constantly in power to refill your loot, the wealth will nosedive with time.


6) Anything can be on Google (It's just a search engine). It doesn't confer authencity on the information.

bigpicture001:
Google Awolowo nd u will realise he was a billionaire

Awolowo like all other mortals had his shortcomings but he was neither a Billionaire nor a thief.

He was comfortable but NOT rich. He was a successful business man and an outstanding Lawyer.


His Newspapers Empire, The Nigerian Tribune
& Sister Titles published by African Newspapers PLC (Established in 1949) is the oldest surviving newspapers in Nigeria and about the only Nigerian company being managed by the 3rd-4th Generation.

He was also a substantial shareholder in Nigerian Bottling Company and has reasonable Real Estate investments.

Awolowo, Azikiwe, Ahmadu Bello, Tafawa Bello, SLA Akinjola and many of the politicians of the First Republic didn't have mansions in London, USA, Dubai or Saudi Arabia.

bigpicture001:
He is exactly like tinubu...infact tinubu is crazy about being awo....both are yoruba leaders nd billionaires without owning any business....

Government corridor thieves!

Honestly this is not funny at all, our Government should find ways to stop all these nonsense before it spread like cancer.

Congratulations sir.

My likeness or not has nothing to do with these sir

Kuginzi:
Republic of Biafra is achievable either u like it or not. Very soon, we will have our Biafra Military, Biafra SSS, Biafra Police, CBB(Central Bank of Biafra), etc

You can form Biafra on your own by Jan-1,2020.

You don't need the approval or support of Jubrin from Sudan or the Zoo as a whole.

Kuginzi:
Biafra or we die!!

Jubrin Al-Sudani will give you when he returns to Abuja next week.

Kuginzi:
Give us Biafra

Take time to read carefully so as to understand the posts.

1) I never said there is presently any state called Mbaise State.

2) Will Mbaise people prefer that their State (Imo State) be dissolved so that they can go back to Regional arrangements like in the days of Old Eastern Region?

mrvitalis:
I'm from mbaise we don't want our own state

South east is only requesting for one state because we have less senators than other zones

The the state is anioma state in part of delta with asaba as capital ...now go n sleep

That is the exact reason we need an election.

Who is best to Nnamdi may not be the best to Hauwa or Akeem.

We need an election in which majority of Nigerians will chose who they consider to be the best candidate for the Presidency.

CSTR2:
So if Peter obi runs against him, osibanjo would still be the best candidate?

Funny guy.

You are very funny sir.


Ask people from Afikpo, Obudu, Ogoja, Etche, Isialangwa, Bende or Mbaise if they will like their States to be dissolved and they go back to the Old Eastern Region with capital at Enugu.

mrvitalis:
Oga the whole south want states to control their resources ...which Igbo's want more state ...

Every one want a zonal government who has power to control its self ,draw out its economic plan ....we want power back to zones as it was in the regional government who doesn't know that ?

Osibanjo is really good should have brought out his idea on restructuring and gone after it

The problem with people like you is that you don't fully understand how a President emerge in a Democracy and neither do you understand the Nigerian system very well.


1) Democracy is a process (or a journey) and not an event.


2) If we have been practicing uninterpreted democracy since 1960, so many myths that emerged as a result of prolonged military rule wouldn't have existed.

3) The North is NOT a homogeneous and monolithic zone. There have NEVER been any election in Nigieria in which all the 19 States in the 'North' voted for the same candidate/party.


4) The concept of Zoning is in the PDP Constitution. It's not in the Nigerian or APC Constitution.

5) The Nigerian Constitution already takes care of the fears of marginalization which zoning purport to solve.

6) No part of Nigeria can single handedly make one of their own the President of Nigeria.
In addition to simple majority,you require 25% of the votes cast in 24 States to win the Presidential election.

No part of the Country can continuously muster these requirements without negotiating with other regions.

7) What this mean is that you need to be on ground and be accepted across most parts of Nigeria in order to win Nigerian Presidential election.

mrvitalis:
Firstly zoning was done to give we south a chance at presidency

Remove all the vote buhari got from south he still worn the election by over 500k votes
This has shown the north they can win without south

Unless Yoruba's back the Igbo's north would win 2019 election ....

Yoruba presidency only hangs on north chosen to burry their ambition n vote Yoruba's the way they voted buhari ....when their is no reason to do that ...do u think north would ?

Please define what constitute 'Restructuring' and leave ethnic profiling of the Yorubas.







What the Ijaws/Niger Delta will call restructuring is Resource control.


Igbos may mean additional State, Yorubas may mean Resource control, State Police and increased autonomy, Kanuris may mean Grazing Reserve, Hausa may want stronger Central Government etc.


Periodic amendments of the Constitution may ensure some forms of restructuring.



However, we need to understand that 'restructuring' on its own is not a magic wand that will transform Nigeria into an Eldorado.

Presently, each State has political powers over Agriculture, Health, provision of water , waste disposal in their States ,yet they don't perform very well in these roles.

Most Nigerians don't complain much about the failures of their Governors/LGA chairmen but are fixated on the Federal Government.

mrvitalis:
Why type of restructuring did osibanjo take federal government to court for ?

So you don't know the type of restructuring being call for by Nigerians ? Smile

I just they look Yoruba Media ....if Una like make Una rap osibanjo in gold he won't sale one bit ...

Whose turn? How do you enforce this 'turn' stuff?

How do you determine when it's someone's turn because I want to be President too.





Instead of you people to rally round a strong candidate with good reputation and national acceptability whose candidature can be sold to the Nigerian voters, you are busy shouting it's own turn all over the cyber space.

mrvitalis:
He is not heartless he denied restructuring ?

He is not heartless he wants to run even when its not his turn ? Go n sleep

What's restructuring? Restructuring mean different things to different politicians/parties or Geo-political zones.


Neither the President nor the Vice president of Nigeria can restructure Nigeria on their own.



However, restructuring of Nigeria will take place gradually and it's inevitable.

mrvitalis:
And yet Deny he knew what restructuring was ? He is a snake nothing more

These politicians had their bases in areas where Buhari was already popular.
They simply latched on to the popularity of Buhari to remain relevant.

Without Kwankwanso and Saraki, APC would still have won Kano and Kwara.

Without being in the APC, it would have been impossible for Saraki to emerge Senate President in 2015 even if he manages to win Kwara Central Senatorial seat.

APC would still have won Adamawa without Atiku in 2015.

If Dino wasn't in APC, he would not have won PDP's senatorial ticket let alone become a Senator in 2015!

Truthfully,they contributed to Buhari's electoral success in 2015 but they gained more than what they contributed.


This is the reason their political fortunes nosedived in 2019 after leaving Buhari.

Jman06:
You're politically naive!

If not for those northern PDP politicians ehn, Buhari wouldn't have smelt ASO rock. Those men (Kwankwaso, Tambuwal, Atiku, Saraki, Dino etc) were the people that handed power to Buhari! If they had remained in PDP without collapsing their structures into what's now known as APC, not even a thousand Tinubu and his over hyped media prowess would have made Buhari win. Even Buhari understands that fact.

If they had supported GEJ, many of them wouldn't be what they eventually became.
For instance, Dino would never have been a Senator if he had stay in PDP in 2015.

These politicians are smarter than you think, understand and practice the law of self preservation than you.

Saraki would have lost Kwara State since 2015 and would never have been Senate President.

Kwankwanso would have lost relevance by losing Kano to Hurricane Buhari since 2015.

These politicians understand politics far more than you.


#Theyknewwhattheyweredoing

Jman06:
Dino and the other Northern PDP heavyweights just decided to shoot themselves on the foot by their actions prior to the 2015 election. If they had been patient with Jonathan and supported him to win the 2015 election, by now Atiku would have effortlessly become president while Dino would probably have become governor of kogi state. But no, they rather decided to retire themselves politically thinking that it'll be easy to recover power from APC.

That's the way it is for many people in real life, not just on Nairaland.

Good ladies easily fall prey to very bad guys.


Many Slay Queens tend to finally settle down and are happily married.

From my little research, the reason is that

1) Most good girls are naive and inexperienced. They are similar to gullible victims that are easily swindled by fraudsters.


2) Slay Queens have dated severy men and have deep understanding of men, how men think, what men expect and want.

They tend to look for simple guys that they can easily manupulate and if the guy has money, their relationship is often successful because they are usually in control of the relationship.

prizlezzlalasky:
God! This is terrible, from the stories I've read here on Nairaland, one thing so glaring is the fact that genuine guys are always attracted to slay queens.
Where as sincere and genuine ladies are being "Ronaldorized" by awon play boys aka Lionel Mess I.

@ Op.... Take heart, do what ever your heart tells you. But please look for a sincere lady for your sanity and long life.
