Please in what culture is shameless hypocrisy not a fundamental trait huh
You are shameless and you expect everyone to be shameless like you.
The bini are not hypocrites. They call a spade a spade everytime, unlike the shameless yorubas that destroyed Jonathan's government because of this same subsidy removal they now applaud.

-So this man is from Ikere Ekiti? That place is an epitome of poverty. When I last went there, the only storey building was a mud-house built by a photographer from Benin.

-Yoruber people should stop abandoning their villages. What I saw there was an eyesore. No toilets in most of the "houses". School self mchew!
What is dis one saying?

Is this why the king killed many of them as sacrifice to avoid being killed by the oyinbos, who are busy fcvking them as oloshos in cold Europe?

Benin Expedition of 1897

Elspeth Huxley spent some time researching in Benin in 1954, and wrote:

" ... to hear an account of the Benin massacre of 1897 and its sequel from one who had taken part. It is a story that still has power to amaze and horrify, as well as to remind us that the British had motives for pushing into Africa other than the intention to exploit the natives and glorify themselves. Here, for instance, are some extracts from the diary of a surgeon who took part in the expedition.:- 'As we neared Benin City we passed several human sacrifices, live women slaves gagged and pegged on their backs to the ground, the abdominal wall being cut in the form of a cross, and the uninjured gut hanging out. These poor women were allowed to die like this in the sun. Men slaves, with their hands tied at the back and feet lashed together, also gagged, were lying about. As we neared the city, sacrificed human beings were lying in the path and bush—even in the king's compound the sight and stench of them was awful. Dead and mutilated bodies were everywhere – by God! May I never see such sights again! . . .'"[16]
Herbert Walker, a soldier serving in the punitive expedition, believed that the human sacrifices he saw were an attempt by Benin City residents to appease the Gods as they tried to defend themselves from the expedition.

what barrister Wole Olanipekun said here is 100% truths. Nigeria and the Nigeria people are relatively poor with bad economic policies Tinubu government enforce on us. The suffering is unbearable.

That axis of Ekiti state is very much poverty stricken area.
I have been around that area before and I heard from indegenes that the reason many abandon the villages there is because of high level of envious witchcraft activities. Even my friends that I accompanied to a burial in their family run away from home because of fear of the evil witches and wizards there.

Anytime I say nigerians brought the hardship on themselves because of their own personal greed and tribalism, people start attacking me from all angles but that is the truth. We usually choose the peanuts they offer us in exchange for our destinies

I think it is more of wickedness, how a certain set of people supported Buhari for 8 years and those same people are now supporting Tinubu, I have taught about it and feel these were the same kind of people who kept Africa backwards (both followers and leaders) till the whites came to colonize Africa.

Wickedness is their driving force because they'll rather choose bragging rights of being in charge which they feel is more important to them than progress
Facts. Nigerians are an evil set of wicked and foolish people. It's the reason why they were so easily dominated by a handful of white people. Pathetic

You are very correct. No lies. I served there 15 years ago, When I got to ikere, I couldn't believe my eyes, I was like is this Nigeria? I immediately worked for my redeployment back to Ado... Ado is not even better, but the most especially has developed their capital to a level you can see good Houses with toilet. But, Ekiti people don't build toilet they prefer SHORT-PUT. Development is far from them. Wonder what those professors are doing
oh wow

Yes our judicial system is a joke but you should learn to differentiate between that and lawyers.
In every country lawyers are allowed to defend their clients corrupt or not. In fact, that's the mark of a fair legal system.
Everyone should have the right to a defence so I see no reason for you to blame the failure of the Nigerian state of lawyers as if lawyers in every other country are not the same.
Both belong to legal profession. Bench to bar and vice versa. The same system.

Unless you think that criminals do not have a right to a defense only then would you have a point but that still wouldn't make you right.
The right of lawyers to defend their clients is in no way the cause of your countries problems. Do you understand?

Your statement is contradictory sir, are you blaming the leaders or those who defend them?
It’s those who defend them in court, online, etc., yet turn round to lament how poverty has taken over the land.

Do you know where plea bargain is common in US? Most lawyers would ask their clients to enter plea bargain for a lesser sentence. Essence of legal system is protect innocent people not criminals. Any system that is protecting criminals would fail.

How does please bargain come into this sir?
Yes, the essence of the legal system is to protect the innocent but the role of the lawyer is to protect his clients interest, guilty or innocent.
It seems you really think that lawyers don't protect guilty people's interest in America. You are actually wrong, you know.
