There were about 6 traffic officers trying to stop him as seen in the video.

Just 2 korofo army officers would have stopped him.

Why is it like that ? Discuss.

nairavsdollars:
I saw the video and I blame the father of the deceased. Such a deranged animal. How can you drive so recklessly with a child in the car? He killed that poor boy

The surviving twin brother will never forgive him.

The mother of the children will never forgive him.

His own conscience will continue to judge him.

Such careless and irresponsible behaviour even in the presence of the children

EeyanMayweather:
We need to hear the full story madam.
Let’s deal with issues and not emotions

That is how they will rush to the social media with false and disjointed narratives.

gidgiddy:
It's very unfortunate that people brought politics into a religious event

It started the day they took political campaign to the altar.

hatchy:
He has been bought over by his elder brother Tinu.bu, paid billions to begin to insult Obi instead of being an opposition. What money cannot do does not exist. After God, it's money.

At what point was he bought over?

When he writes his rubbish about Obi then, he is bought over.

When he writes rubbish about Tinubu then, he is the next anointed after John the Baptist .

Una no dey tire?

You go explain tire

Guys, someone here asked a few days back why stocks like Airtel still needed 100k units for a price change.

To him, my response is:
The volume needed was indeed tiered as you expect only a few years back, with stocks above just #100 needing only 10k units for a price change.

But people were then easily distorting the index with price movements on stocks like Dangote cement (needed only 2.2m then)

To everyone, my take is that, that rule probably needs to be adjusted to reflect new market realities.

At the time it was introduced, only NESTLE was priced above 1000, today we have GEREGU, AIRTELAFRI and SEPLAT too some having done 10x in the intervening period.


My proposal:
Let's revert to allowing 10k units cause a price change (maybe this time for stocks above N1000) provided the ticker hasn't had a price movement for up to 30 days (new clause to guide against the index distortion concern).



I think this adjustment is needed to help stocks like Airtel and SEPLAT which have such wide disparity between the prices in London and Lagos.


I'll try to send an email to the NGX public contact, please send this proposal too if it makes sense to you(add your voice), also if you have private communication access to the team there, maybe raise it too.

The market could be doing extra N5bn per week on these two if they weren't so blocked.

Tell the person it is not automatic that there must be a price change each time 100k units of a stiock are transacted.

Valthegreat:
If you believe this kind of political propaganda then there's nothing you can not believe. Sowore that has been doing everything to get Obi's attention.

He writes his rubbish about Obi then it becomes he wants Obi' s attention.

He writes rubbish about Tinubu then he becomes the greatest after John the Baptist. Wonderful!

alobright17:
am sure eye witnesses full ground to tell us the truth not this one sided defensive statement by the so called our friends .

With the little in this video, what an eyewitness can comfirm are;

* It takes only mad man to. perform this stumt with his twin children in rhe car..

*The driver deserves a mental evaluation.

* The most stupid police officer with a primary school certifivate could easily have taken the car number without resulting to shooting.

* Many are gaily dressed and mad but only few are in the asylum. And even only fewer are roaming

[quote author=Dancebreaker post=135446133]Watch it here. Unless it's fake video.

for this video.

I strongly recommend that people should watch this video before making a comment...


Calling the driver an idiot will be an understatement.

SlayQueenSlayer:
E get mind abi e foolish? Person wey get mind without sense na fool.

Foolish is the most appropriate description of him actually.

PresidObi:
If they release the names of those arrested, you will cry for Nigeria.

Government institutions are now effectively tribal bigotry centres.

Why not delay till they release the names?

Though it is customary for you to cry and weep irrespective of the story, it only makes sense to weep and cry with a bit of decorum.

sagitariusbaby:
What was the previous or former leaders of the state doing with the resources at their disposal? I think Abians should avoid anyone with the name Kalu gracing their government seat.

They were looting while their online e-rats focused their attention on other states.

RealityKings1:
That was very fast

Fast, you complain.

Slow, you complain.

Omoawoke:
Whoever advised jamb to make a public apology is the most idiotic person in the world of corporate image..

First you made a mistake, second you made a stupid judgement to come online and make an apology..

People don’t understand human psychology and public perception.. the public isn’t that bright.

Chai!!!

In critical decision making, picking between two tough decisions…. you think it thoroughly and look at the long term effect of your decisions… make an apology now and lose an entire public trust over the years and future??

There are better ways to have gone about this… you could have called for a second jamb for everyone in later part of the year…. Something like second chance maybe in July to write jamb due to mass failure… The pubic will praise you for your goodness, and you internally deal with the situation and punish who needs to be punished… win win situation..

Now you tarnish your image, public trust!!! Worst of all bringing opportunities for people to start a tribal argument over nonsense

And the crazy thing is glitch or no glitch… many kids will still fail… now they all have the perfect excuses

Brilliant.

The most brilliant piece I have read in this platform in a long time.

discusant:
But what are the Igbos waiting for?
Is it not yet time for Igbo leadership to collect all the evidences of Igbo marginalisation by Nigeria and present them to the UN for a BiafraExit talk?

No country, including Nigeria, was given sovereignty by the UN to undermine progress and survival in a section of the country. It's more than 60 years that Nigeria has been using every method it likes to undermine the Igbos and Igboland.

Would it not have made sense if MNK had taken that step. instead of putting a bounty on someone else's head and calling for the burning down of institutions in addition to asking that police and army personnels. should be killed?

One would. have thought that the much touted British army that your ilk were boasting will come and rescue their citizen would have been here by now.

Mabuggi88:
You people are now trying to change the narrative because you people were caught. Insider job ni.
Even those affected in Lagos are mostly students with Igbo names. My Niece is now preparing to travel to ibeju Lekki from Berger all because of he was affected too

"Those affected in Lagos are mostly students with Igbo names"?

So say some of you people are sick will be an under-statement. The way you people craft and design scenerios hen, even the devil go twale for una.

DeLaRue:
There is no other country in the world where people obsess needlessly about small movements in their currency.

The Naira has been very stable since before the beginning of the year, and this year so far, average volatility has been around 2%.

That's a solid performance that has driven currency speculators into redundancy. Speculation is mostly dead.

Every currency moves either way. What's important is the movements should be relatively small. That's where the naira is right now.

The CBN has done an excellent job of making the Naira stable.

It is not about the obsession with the small movement in the currency rate. Rather:

* It is about something to jubilate about all in the name of insulting whoever.

* It is about being jubilant because their dream of N2000/dollar is about coming to pass.

* It is about having their regular dose of news that fuel their energy.

* It is most importantly about showcasing their level of ignorance even when they claim they are educated.

advanceDNA:
For a commodity like rice..that's exactly what will happen...sellers will hoard their goods till the noise goes down, creating artificial scarcity

So why then did you say they wanted to crash the price.?

Truth is, commodities like rice have a way of rubbishing economic theories especially in Nigeria.

advanceDNA:
Be like someone wants to artificially crash the price of rice....

it cannot work.... Nigerians wey dey chop rice wey get sand, stones,

Rather than crash the price, I CAN confirm to you that the panic has led to hoarding and prices have gone up astronomically.

Market update.

Killermamba:
One of my friend just sent me this like 1 hour ago, she bought the rice to cook for her kids to take to school this morning only to discover the rice has turned blue. The rumour may be true but it's nothing spiritual,the discolouration is as a result of a chemical reaction. My conclusion is that the rice has been preserved with a deadly pesticides or it was deliberately laced to kill people.

Do well to show us the one that turned green.

Truth is, if other exams are cinducted like Jamb, there will be sorrows, tears and blood

Kingluqman:
Awoniyi situation was not the reason why he was furious at Nuno. It's because the whole team was playing rubbish and they needed the match because Newcastle already defeated Chelsea 2 nil that day. And the owner is a chronic gambler

It was the reason. Try and follow football through multiple sources . His angst was against the medical team who had the opportunity to say the guy should be subbed off but rather have him a clean bill to proceed.
The club has issued a statement . Go to sky sport. Go to BBC

Godjone:
Amaenchi must continue to live in regrets all the days of his lives. Because of selfish reasons, he ganged up against a working gorvernment that was making life easy for Nigerians.

After his marriage with his fellow strange bedfellows broke up with nothing as an outcome, he started firing from all directions like a loosed Cannon.

He is speaking out today because the APC taught him a life lesson he will live to remember

Useless transport minister

The blame and the fault has shifted from Britain to America?

May your children nevee inherit this habit from you.
