Politics › Re: Ongoing Clash In Lagos As Tinubu Supporters Attack Igbos Over Election Result by phineas: 10:47am On Feb 27, 2023
Same goes for the oniru incidence,those thugs have lords.Its silly to assume APC runs the whole of Lagos streets or Yoruba streets.


It's clearly odd to think the oniru will sanction such violence at his doorstep when he will be the first to be blamed

There are elements in Lagos promoting this mischievous narratives ,it's best for all to stay calm and not heat the polity
Politics › Re: Ongoing Clash In Lagos As Tinubu Supporters Attack Igbos Over Election Result by phineas: 10:41am On Feb 27, 2023
You all need to stop spreading fake news..

To start with everyhood in Lagos is under the control of one faction or the other.If you know the history of the streets you will know who runs where.They all have Lagos family affiliations which eventually runs along party lines and alleigance for particular candidates.They do not operate outside each others jurisdiction.

this part of Lagos you are all clamouring about, its obviously not an APC clique running it.If it were
1. The Oba of Lagos palace somewhere in that axis would not have been sacked with no quick response

2.Its quite normal to see factions fight there, like violent fights.to maintain peace the streets are divided like the Mexican gangs during those periods, those from street x don't pass through y etc.

3.its been like that since forever in that particular hood. A quiet market day can turn into people running helter skelter and guns flash out in broad daylight but they only attack each other.But everybody runs

4. This appears to be one of those... How fake news have made it about the ibos I'm not sure. However I advice every sane person to stay clear of those areas for now.

What normal person decides to go to mandilas to Stoke "political trouble" at a time like this..is that not madness
Politics › Re: Ooni Leads Yoruba Monarchs To Welcome Tinubu To Ibadan by phineas: 8:39am On Feb 17, 2023
OtunbaJ:
Oni of Ife has constantly and consistently disgracing the Yoruba race, u are seen as the head of the Yoruba race and as such u need to carry urself in that manner. Y will u leave ur thron to welcome a presidential candidate when ordinary they are the one to come to the palace and seek for ur blessings. Since Atiku or Obi is going round has Emir of Sokoto or Obi of Onitsha left their throne to welcome them in the neibouring state. Haba Arole Odua
Who is this one disparaging the Ooni with no knowledge of the history and issues this single move has addressed in the unity of its monarchy system?

This OOni has been the most progressive for the unity of the Yoruba rac through a united mornachy,and the promotion of the Yoruba culture. This is the OOni orisha and the Paramount ruler of the Oyo in one city to welcome a dignitary. There were assurances by the late Alaafin to ensure ife and Oyo work to together for the progress of the yoruba.

If the symbolism and historical reference of this is missed by your type,then I can't help you.

That said when prince Charles was around didn't all your major kings leave their palaces and turn up in another city other than their own to receive him?
Politics › Re: Ooni Leads Yoruba Monarchs To Welcome Tinubu To Ibadan by phineas: 8:27am On Feb 17, 2023
This is what I Love about the Yoruba culture. To know their true minds watch their actions very closely. Key word is actions not duty.

They do not use words but action.When they act with one voice, they have spoken.

With this move,the Yorubas have spoken clearly.The culture supercedes all and there will be no breaking in their ranks.

Interesting to watch history unfold

The guy with the plaited hair is good branding for their vision.

Ekiti with their backwardness could use his branding to promote themselves or they may just stone him .. you can't be sure what you get with them

Let's all remember the school girl flogged terribly an shamed for her cute haircut...maybe she will get a laptop too.

Education › Re: Lagos Government Shuts Chrisland School Over Whitney Adeniran’s Death by phineas: 10:01am On Feb 13, 2023
helpee:
What duty of care? The school had a nurse on duty who stated the girl was dead on the spot but she couldn’t certify her dead because she is a nurse. Do we have paramedics in Nigeria? Where are they trained? All the people acting as paramedics in Nigeria are nurses. What do you mean by duty if care? You just heard the term and you are running agog with it. In standard setting, the people around would only initiate BLS protocol and call for help with ambulance. The ambulance would be there within five minutes. For your information, it is govt that ensures such ambulances are readily available. What the school owe them they did… they had a nurse who tried to resuscitate. They took her to the closest medical center.So tell me, what do you mean by duty of care for someone that suddenly arrested? They can’t do beyond what the system allows… even if they got her to hospital alive and she needed an immediate catheterization, it won’t be available anyway . Yes, we all need a scape goat in things like this… until you see the result of the autopsy, you are just spewing childish trash about duty of care.
I see the medical personnel have finally woken to their moral duty of educating the public


Good one,we must not stay silent and let jungle justice thrive. God bless you all and please keep it up

BlueRayDick:
Emotional blackmail don't work on everybody like u assume.
Dont mind them,that's why Nigeria is wack . We use emotions where our systems should kick in.If we shut every school in Lagos because there was a scandal or non epidemic death (without investigation) will that be a good practice?

Where is the States protocol?

Please note epidemic cause of death have protocols which will automatically lead to the school been shut asap. In addition they are investigated and usually confirmed with 24-48hrs.

What and where is Lagos States protocol a SC regards deaths reported in a school?

What circumstance and How many days should the school be shut? How long should the investigation be,when and on what grounds will the school be opened? If this answers where not provided when the school was been shut,then yes its a classic (knee jerk response). And that is very bad for the country.

buJu234:
Why are students only dying in the so-called expensive rich men's school?

with the millions they collect, at least they should have a school nurse specializing in CPR, and a stand-by Ambulance car (just in case).

also, tell parents to submit an annual medical report for their kids before school resumes..
It happens in rich and poor schools.Only rich schools get a response such as this from Govt.Its pretentious over Sabi not based on any systems or proven protocols.

There is a reason justice is said to be blind.True Justice is devoid of grandstanding and pretentiousness.Lagos States response in the absence of any panel or protocol is just that.

Nigeria does not need that,we need protocols and systems that is known to all and enforced on all both rich and poor.
Education › Re: Lagos Government Shuts Chrisland School Over Whitney Adeniran’s Death by phineas:
Chrisland parents should sue

How many deaths from cholera back then did it take before Lagos closed down queen's college

More than 1

This was not an epidemic yet the school was closed down...till when and why

What happened to innocent till proven guilty.Looks like they are validating the social media jungle justice trend

Lagos is wrong on this one.except there's other info. And if there is they should let us know for precedence sake

gaspology:
I am surprised parents still allowed their children to attend this infamous school after that Dubai scandal
How many scandals did you hear of in your secondary school days? All school had 1 or 2. If we close schools or refuse to use them as a result of the actions of some stupid secondary school students outside school.Will any of your school's abroad still exist?

uK secondary schools are now coming to recruit in Nigeria for boarding secondary schooling in the UK. Is that not ridiculous? Serious capital flight because we are demarketting our own schools ourselves

I know of parents who wanted to send their kids to boarding secondary school in Nigeria from abroad, but the Dowen story settled that matter.

We should stop this trend of demarketting Nigeria and her institutions,it has long term effects beyond just mere beer parlour gossips

Pinkyposh:
When that of Sylvester happened, you people closed your eyes and ears and refused to withdraw your kids from that school.
When it gets to your turn, you'll start lamenting.
The remaining people in that school should start withdrawing their kids before it gets to them.

Imagine paying so much for school fees, yet they couldn't get adequate medical personnel on ground.
Couldn't take her to a good hospital
What a shame

That school is highly connected, an ordinary person can't bring it down

May the poor girl's soul rest in peace
It Is very possible,and most likely (based on all evidence available so far) that the whole Nigeria owes the Dowen 5 an apology.You all tried to pull an "aluu 4" on those kids on social media

You all should stop pointing fingers with unsubstantiated evidence.

This is another example of such a case leave it to those trained on these matters to conclude

For those not informed,when a person dies under questionable circumstances,or brought in dead, a coroners autopsy must be done by the police (it's a law) before the body can be buried

A murder case cannot be made in such case without a "coroners"
Education › Re: 12-Year-Old Whitney Adeniran Dies At Chrisland High School (Photos) by phineas: 8:53am On Feb 12, 2023
This belongs to a competent court with finings of a corners autopsy

Rushing to social media is like calling thief thief...it's a call for jungle justice on the school and I dividuals that may be innocent.

That is wrong of the parents and this trend should be condemned.(e.g the Dowen boys)

It's no enough that they were rescued where are those who kidnapped them?

We need special courts to fast track the conviction of kidnappers this is compulsory and must be expedited

We need to see the maximum penalty by law carried out on kidnappers to end this menace Now they are kidnapping little kids.... And everyone is still silent.
Business › Re: Banks Will Accept Old Naira Notes After Deadline - Emefiele by phineas: 5:13pm On Jan 31, 2023
Omoapena:
This is now getting more confusing,

Is it that commercial banks will start rejecting after 10th of February or they are given till 17th of February to collect it.
I'm only quoting his speech, and it appears commercial banks will stop collecting from the public from the 10th based on the last speech on Sunday. But the CBN will continue to take deposits till the 17th.
Thats a clause everyone should review carefully and ask questions around
Business › Re: Banks Will Accept Old Naira Notes After Deadline - Emefiele by phineas: 3:52pm On Jan 31, 2023
I'm very worried about how we all don't stay abreast with our country policies in detail before commenting.its like people just parrot what others say as fact

You all need to have tracked his press briefing and analyzed it in detail. How hard is that.


Youths need to do better.
Business › Re: Banks Will Accept Old Naira Notes After Deadline - Emefiele by phineas: 3:47pm On Jan 31, 2023
The CBN Governor personally read a statement at a press briefing where he said

1. Old notes will be accepted at commercial banks till the 10th of Feb

2.After the 10th it will be collected only at the APEX bank (CBN) till the 17th

Hope you all know by law he is covered by that public statement on his policy when commercial banks stop collecting your money after the 10th

And for those with fraudulently earned cash let's see how you explain your deposit of large sums directly to the CBN.

People need to be clear on this things and stop muddling the news up especially when the man personally read a press statement.

Plus I don't get what all the noise is about, those with genuinely earned old notes have nothing to be afraid of ,they should go and deposit it. how hard is that?

For every Dr that leaves there are at least 5 more unemployed to replace that person ask your hospital to recruit

The only overworked consultant of a specialist unit in a Government GH left and instead of finding ways for temporary employment the clowns in management closed down the unit.Cos HMB did not employ for them

Also ARD should take full responsibility for its role in perpetuating toxic work environment that makes no sane registrar decide to stay

Every post with her image(dressed and undressed) should be deleted. Moderators should take note

The Nigerian army should invest in a cyberwarfare department to track erring sites and personal pages including WhatsApp promoting images such as this and those against the military

Crimes like this only thrive because of their publicity

Lastly the military must do everything in its power to get her back alive.Everyone must get involved

Dear Biafrans and by default the men and women of a certain tribe ,this crime has been committed in your name. it's time for you to own the criminals or deny them and fish them out.

Crime › Re: Kidnap: Mum And Daughters Raped by phineas:
Some kind of evil should not happen in our land and when it happens we must not stay quiet and allow it pass,it must never become the norm

The king is the king of all both the good and the bad (a Yoruba proverb).The leaders of the good and the bad must fish those boys out and have them dealt with appropriately,not a quiet sent to jail but a public sentencing to serve as deterent.It doesn't matter how long it takes they must be found and brought to justice or the land has no leadership ,no mother's ,who raised the people there? How can they be silent?

To keep silent in the face of a matter like that is enabling such vices. Humans of Rivers State over to you.I don't think anyone should let this go

All of you citing " the abroad" hope you know he has broken at least 2 laws with his careless speech that would definitely land him in jail depending on his prior records

1.Slander/libel
2.Hate speech

Hope you know UK arrested people for posting pictures of burning bodies on social media from the building that was on fire.

Hope you know the UK also was passing a bill to protect its peoples mental health from the nonsense social media posts from people from these parts of this world that just post anyhow

If he is willing to do the crime he should definitely not be complaining of the trial.NANS should stay out of it.perhaps he would be the National lesson for cyber bullies
