They now have a new template to control states they are not sure of winning in 2027.

How come.no emergency rule in bandit and Boko Haram ravaged states of the North?

FreeStuffsNG:
The editorial of Punch did an awful job with this one-sided and biased reporting.

An unbiased reader of this report may think that this report seem like a hatchet job by the proscribed IPOB group lawyer in collaboration with the Punch reporter to instigate Punch newspapers readers against lawful authorities.

Why use the word invasion when this is a lawful exercise? Why was the spokesperson of NAFDAC not contacted? Why is the report centered on the speech of only the IPOB lawyer? Why is there no a reference to the legal unit of NAFDAC to even confirm if there's such a correspondence? Why is the report looking like a sponsored post?

Unfortunately, this is what NAFDAC got for not prosecuting those directly involved and their collaborators who kept mute when crime of drug tampering and adulteration was being committed around them.

NAFDAC should stop issuing just fines and confiscating and destroying the exhibit, they should do like NDLEA and prosecute the suspects. That's the only way they can avert this kind of scenarios. Anyone arrested should go prove his or her innocence in court.

That bile in you has still.not allowed you to feel any remorse for the lady whose shop was maliciously shut by people like you with dark green bile in your system.

Do you work with NAFDAC?, Are you ignorant of how a typical Nigeria security agents work? What stops NAFDAC from isolating innocent people in a market rather than corporal punishment for all?

Once more purge your subltle hate and live a free life. Only demons defend evil at every turn

Civil war lasted 3 years. War with Boko Haram and bandits have lasted over 10years. It has become a way of life in Nigeria

The failure of govt

You're right in pointing out that belonging to a church building or denomination does not save anyone. Salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone—not by church attendance, religious rituals, or labels.

John 3:16 says “whosoever believes in Him”, not “whosoever registers in a church.”

So no, a man doesn’t instantly become a sinner just because he’s outside a church building. That would be legalism, not gospel.

However, there’s a difference between:

1. Being without a church by circumstance (e.g., living in a remote area, persecution, war)

2. Willfully neglecting fellowship out of pride, offense, or indifference

The issue is not "having a church" — it's being part of the Body.

The New Testament talks about living, connected fellowship:

Acts 2:42 – “They continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship...”

Hebrews 10:25 – “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together...”

1 Corinthians 12:27 – “Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.”

You can be a believer in a desert or prison and still be deeply connected to Christ. But when someone says “I don’t need church” while surrounded by Christian community, that often reveals a heart issue, not just geography.

You are right butbthere can never be an absolute position on this. Even a man can decide.not to belong to a church and remain a Christian even though this is not encouraged. A family can be a church because where 2 or 3 are gathered, He's there in theor mixt. If a family for whatever reason decides to turn their sitting room to a "church", nothing changes but this is not encouraged neither is it a sin.

Thankgod89:
No—one cannot truly claim to be a child of God while neglecting devotion, because being God's child redefines our priorities.

Devotion is dedication to Christ, expressed in worship, fellowship, obedience, and ongoing transformation.
Without devotion, Christianity becomes cultural, not covenantal.

Also, the Bible never presents Christianity as a solo walk. Jesus didn’t just save individuals—He created a Body, the Church.

Hebrews 10:25 talks about "Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is..."
1 John 1:7 – "If we walk in the light... we have fellowship one with another..."
Acts 2:42 – "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship..."

So the very moment a man no longer has a church he becomes a sinner?

The level of religious extremism in some of you is alarming.

The Bible should now be rewritten to say " for God so loved world that he gave his only begotten son that WHOEVER HAS A CHURCH HAS ETERNAL LIFE".

Christian should belong to a church, but belonging to a church does not make any man a Christian. You can fans yourself in Afghanistan without a church and remain a fervent Christian. The ultimate is surrender your life to christ whether in a church in Lagos or living alone in Sahara desert.

This man os always camouflaging and unreliable.

Brilliant writer but appears to lack principle

When Obj seized Lagos allocations, everyone pitied Tinubu but see where we are now.

This action is intended to either lead to loss of the forth coming elections or the Adeleke porting to APC

WorldRichest:
He has not yet visited Sheu Gumi since Gumi was bounced from Saudi. Someone should remind him.

Are you aware your DSS Boss has spoken with Gumi? Or the hypocritical you think it doesn't matter?

Charbliss90:
This statistics sometimes are very wrong, why put Ogbomosho above Benin? Are this guy's really doing the actual statistics or they just wake up and write something?

They just choose State capitals, places like Sango Ota, Akute, Ekpoma, Ado-Ekiti aren't on the list

You must be funny to be mentioning Sango ota and Akute here. It shows you haven't travelled at all

ProudlyLagos:
no contest, Lagos is always on the lead……even the Ogbomosho they love to denigrate is doing far better than some billionaire city is God not wonderful?

Shouldn't you be ashamed that the cities that were razed to the ground barely 50yrs ago in civil war, with no FG supports and marginalised have overtaken you? All these through personal efforts

Raf4:
Whatever gives you bloated massaged egos....... The same Ogun gives succour and economic asylum to numerous anambrarians. How many indigenes is seeking same from Anambra?

Because you are locked up in your cocoon, scared to move out and compete. Chinese are in Nigeria, I guess it's because Nigeria is better than China right?

Greed leads to winner takes all mentality. This benefits few people in the short term but damages the society unity and cohesion for generations to come.

The current acts of APC since 2015 will be referenced in the next 30years if Nigeria remains

Punch and dirty works.

They were same one that reported crises at the coalition's meeting yesterday. Dirty works for the Oga at the top

Raf4:
The only reason this is possible is because the whole of SE, available to about 40million ndigbos, is about the size of Oyo state.
Imagine if the whole of Yoruba is confined in Oyo state. All the people, infrastructure, industrial and residential estates in the SW concentrated in Oyo state. Imagine all the old wealth (Da Rocha, Odutolas, Fajemirokuns, Okunowos, Kukus, MKO, Adebisis etc) and current wealth (Adenugas, Alakijas, Tinubus, Kensingtons, Okoyas, Adelekes, Otedolas etc) with all the religious and educational institutions etc are all in Oyo state. SW would have turned to one mega city, and probably the biggest in the world.
You will just discover that your living room is in Lagos State while your bedroom falls within Ogun state. Or you and your girlfriend strolling down the street and you just discover that while you're walking on the Osun state side of the road, your girlfriend is on Ekiti state side.

Does this explain the decaying cities around you? Anambra's population is equal to Ogun population yet you can't compare the 2 in civil development of their cities. Same applies to others states.

It has little to do with landmass, otherwise we can also argue that Lagos is developed because it has the 2nd smallest landmass in Nigeria

Ttalk:
The new coastal road will open up new area increase investment in those areas, create job, enhance our water transportation as well as the aquatic business along that corridor

That's how white elephant projects are justified by politicians to create room for looting

After billions poured into Kano-Maradi rail. What have you "opened up"?

AdesegunSanni89:
He wants Nigeria to work like Anambra is working today.

Yes, Anambra is one of the richest , educated and developed states in Nigeria. But how will you know apart from relying on what your grand parents told you

JAMB is a huge disappointment. You reschedule an exam impromptu forgetting many of these students need to travel across states and cities to write the exams. For some of these students, they needed time to make an adequate accommodation arrangement.

Peterobiisathie:
tell us when did Tinubu become your president
all eyes on judiciary crew

The funny thing about people like you is that you don't make significant progress in life. Anyone who loves and revels in injustice ends up living a frustrated life.

As it's today's, the Igbos have long left you behind in progress while you wallow in your backwardeness

With INEC by your side and in your pocket

Ebubu:
This is why Ndi Ebonyi and Ndi Abakaliki refuse to do this Nwa Boi vehemently.

Because of the insincerity of the Oga, they will find accusation against you, throw you under the bus to climb you, and part ways with you after your servitude for 7 and half years at least even 10 years atimes.


God bless Ebonyi State people.

Keep talking nonsense, a typical Igbo trader selling food stuff (Rice, beans, garri etc) is from Ebonyi and they have plenty nwa boy in their various shops

Chivisee:
Empty drum head and yeye organisation! Mtcheew

You probably typed this under Oshodi bridge or inside Danfo

SatoshiX:
The same chest beating that has kept him behind bars for years.

oh, you wanted him to be begging on his 2 knees by now? Sorry, he's not a coward

So the govt is the highest beneficiary from high cost of cement?

helinues:
That's why you guys should be advising Peter Obi to stop turning himself into a nuclear reactor.

When I first saw the news, I knew it must be fabricated report which I didn't expect Peter Obi to respond to but here we are

He obviously responded because Fidelity bank is involved.

Those professional balckmailers do no care if Fidelity bank goes down in other to get to Obi in their wacked imagination. Remember that Next Supermarket went up in flame few years ago in Abuja.

Interesting

More interesting is that ADC is.next to APC on the ballot and will benefit from those who will mistake ADC for APC while voting

The man is tired. He is not Obi

This is superb design.

I pray this talent is not wasted

I remember those who laughed at Innoson

The theorists on Nairaland told us how he can't speak English, he can't survive because of XYZ etc

Today, he is listed as a car maker globally while the theorists are only relevant on Nairaland

kay29000:
Please what really happened? I guess I missed the story.

The entire marking scheme for the 5 South East states and Lagos was wrong.

This made the students in the affected states to score below 200.
