Garri does not have adverts but it sells far more than every other product in Nigeria

Why Lagos? Why not send him to America, Europe or Asia for treatment?

johnmartus:
Osho must fight this war till last drop of his blood. Obaseki is a betrayal.

betrayer? What is politics? Is politics in Nigeria not denominated by self-interests? We all know that betrayal and self-interests have unpredictable relationship, when a politician's interests are not met, he is bound to take sides with any side where his interests will be met. Oshiomole has done it to others severally, he isn't a saint and as a politician, he should know this.

Oshiomole said worse things about Yahaya Bello. He said APC will lose Kogi state if they fielded somebody like yahaya Bello, that a governor like yahaya Bello who doesn't pay workers' salaries should not be re-elected but at the end, he was on the campaign train of yahaya bello, he raised his hands severally and poured eulogies on him despite yahaya Bello's apparent failure. Politics on paper is different from politics in reality. Let's watch and see.

Believe this at your own peril. Do u know what it does to countries' economies once it is known they have the virus? That is why some countries who have it don't even make it public, China may even have had the virus for long but was silent about it just to protect their economy until they couldn't hide it anymore. Don't believe all of these countries, the world is a global village.

As usual, the worst of us are always clamouring to represent us. As if PMB, Atiku aren't worse enough, Fayose wants to also vie for the presidential post .

OVIHINNO:
Realistically even if Obaseki is given the APC on a plater of gold there is no way he is going to win the general election as most APC stakeholders will definitely work against him. They will rather bring Anini from the grave and make him Governor than voting Obaseki to continue. Obaseki has burnt all bridges leading to reconciliation

A large portion of Edo voters believe the reason Oshiomole is fighting Obaseki is because Obaseki refused to share Edo money. Edo is not a typical Nigerian state where u can just win election without the backing of the people. That 's why PDP is still winning in some places because Edo people choose candidates' characteristics over party. Obaseki has the majority of Edo people on his side and Oshiomole will not afford to lose Edo state just like Bayelsa due to party politics, he will do anything to make Edo APC candidate win at all cost. It is still a win win situation to Obaseki even though he will still make some concessions.

Pmb has settled the issues and Oshiomole has been saved but u his followers want to "unsave" him by posts like this. Even Obaseki's supporters have been silent in the spirit of peace, despite the obvious victory of their principal over Oshiomole.

The good musicians keep dying leaving us with more noise-makers and "kpangolo musicians". His studio was used during the composition and practise of the world all-stars song, "we are the world". RIP kenny.

I was captivated by the title " Alllan Quartermain" when I saw it. I thought the "film" will be as good as the book but I was disappointed. All the characters were trash. The person who played Umslopogaas is a big clown. They should better change the title to "gathering of clowns".
Another nonsense film is the new lion king. I prefer the old one. I couldn't even watch up to 20 minutes of the new one.

And these were the same group, whom despite their pathetic situation, your former SSG still stole over N200m from them all in the name of clearing "evasive grass specie" and he is still working about freely. Most of us will not take the fight against corruption serious with those people still free.

May her soul RIP and may God give the family the fortitude to bear the loss.

abokikhalifa:
You think it will not affect our politicians ?

It is the politicians that think it will not affect them. If not, they would have placed travel ban on some countries where the virus has been confirmed since.

An average Nigerian businessman will never effect immediate reduction in prices of goods even when the costs of the factors of production fall, but they will sponteneously increase the prices when the costs of factors of production increase, some nigerians' greed most times is so overwhelming.

As developed as Italy, USA and many other countries are, they are still finding it difficult to contain the virus how much more under-developed Nigeria , and yet, the Nigerian govt was quiet to the plea of many Nigerians that all our borders should be closed until the virus is contained. It is when the virus has finally entered the country before the govt decided to listen to the plea of the people. May God continue to protect us from these sort of leaders we have in Nigeria. May their souls rest in peace.

It is NOT A SIN to look good as long as u don't expose your body. There is no holiness or righteousness in looking dirty, poverty-stricken, infact, u will still find many poor people in hell.

That is why I have my doubts whether Uzor Kalu, Jolly Nyame, Joshua Dariye, Olisa Metuh and other convicted high profile criminals are even in prison despite conviction. This is Nigeria. This country has been so messed up that anything can happen. If in a high profile case like this, a primary suspect like the captain could still be sent on a course despite the strong allegations, this country has no hope.

The "senior special adviser " ,Emmanuel Okoduwa was one of those Nigerians who returned from Libya. He was appointed to co-ordinate his fellow liyba-returnees and given the SSA title as a form of respect. He has no political value.

And the other nations don't know God?.
Much as I don't appreciate the lackadaisical attitude of our government to serious health issues, saying God favoured Nigeria ahead of other countries is blasphemous.
For your information, Nigerians are the most unGodly people in the world.

grace is not by how godly or ungodly a person or nation is, it is unmerited, it just comes even when we don't deserve it.

This should be the longest period PMB stayed at home without travelling. We have been told severally that as a president, he must always travel but why isn't he travelling now? Has he stopped being the president? All those thieves that want the courts to grant them permission to travel abroad for medical reason, don't they want to travel anymore? This is one advantage of the covid-19 virus- everybody has learnt to stay at home. Suppose your home is bad as is the case of Nigeria, what will u do?

voltron14:
Is it immigration that checks your temperature?

And we are talking about arrivals here.

In arrivals, well before you encounter the immigration officer, you meet the medics who take your temperature readings which is standard worldwide.

By the way, so God doesn't like the western world and China?

so the medics are the first set of people u encounter immediately u alight from international flight? . Back to the topic, Nigerians are praying people, many things that have led to serious wars in many other countries have never led to wars here. It wasn't by magic or diplomacy. I don't know what u believe but as for me, prayer works. Prayers have saved and keep saving this country.

voltron14:
Why hasn't it reached epidemic level in Nigeria yet?

God is the reason. If u have been to any of our international airports, u will discover that some of our govt officials whether immigration, custom or police focus more on begging for money than doing their jobs.

They are your neighbours na

If u think the govt is doing anything to protect us, u are only deceiving yourself. With the spread of the covid-19 epidemic round the world, we all expected anybody coming from Europe, Asian and other countries where the virus has been confirmed be treated as a suspected carrier whether confirmed or not and must be tested immediately they arrive at any point of entry. This is what is done in sane countries but we do the opposite here. Who will go and look for those people who travelled on the said flight? . The Nigerian authorities keep making jest of themselves.

Dshocker:
Without war,there wouldn't be peace

u are wrong. Injustice is the greatest cause of wars. People fight wars most times because they feel their enemies have cheated them from their rights. Without justice, there will always be anger and wars.

Skinnienigga:
Oga, update yourself and stop talking in the nonsense.

Lion Heart wasn't representative anywhere. First of all, the Oscars do not have "country representatives". Secondly, Lion Heart was submitted to be considered for nomination under a category. Unfortunately, the movie did not meet the requirements for that category and the submission was not considered.

Try use Google sometimes yh.

u began ur opinion by insulting yourself even when u knew nothing about what u are saying.[url][/url]https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.bbc.com/news/amp/world-africa-50300862&ved=2ahUKEwj09IOjp5_oAhXKyIUKHSPOAUsQFjAAegQIAhAB&usg=AOvVaw3J6Ydb9Hec2dgEGPcTNopP&ampcf=1

Skinnienigga:
But Lion Heart wasn't any country's representative in anywhere. It didn't make the cut for the category it was submitted because it didn't meet the criteria. Are you still in 2019?

I mentioned "last oscars" and not Amvca awards. Get that clear.

The same way Genevieve's Lion heart was nominated as Nigeria's representative in the last Oscars award . Many of us knew before the award presentation, that the film was overhyped and absolute rubbish. There were far better films. The storyline was rubbish, the presentation was rubbish also. I keep asking how the film "lion heart" even make the cut . It is the usual "Nigerian thing" were our worst always represent and lead us, just as in politics.

Nafdac died with Dora Akunyili. The post-Dora Akunyili "Nafdac" is an insult to the legacy she built. I don't even know who the current head of nafdac is. Dora Akunyili never publicised herself, her work and efforts spoke for her. They need to rebrand.

Pride goes before a fall. Oshiomhole is taking the long and tedious journey instead of a very easy, straightforward and simple one. The solution to this running about is to settle with his state governor. His suspension by his ward in his home-state is what everything is centered on. If his suspension is lifted by his ward, he has a better locus standi, his accusers will have nothing to hold on to anymore but unfortunately, Oshiomole is not willing to eat the humble pie.

lastempero:
You people should stop blowing the siren of war because no one is calling for it only those that feels that other people are there conquest. Assuming you are from kaduna south,benue state or the other places these terrorists are raiding,killing and maiming innocent life, will you still be sueing for peace ?

check my statement again. I added "justice" to my statement. Where there is no justice, there will never be peace.
