2014 policy... very stale

EniHolar:
Everything is CHANGING from bad to worse.

What effect will that have on our economy? Exploitation everywhere.

Keneking:
So his refineries can not produce ordinary kerosene

As minister of petroleum, this performance is extremely poor and unacceptable. No progressive thinking country keeps ministers that can not perform in office.

Woeful and exceptional weak performance as head of petroleum in Nigeria.

- high cost of PMS at retail stations
- high cost of AGO at retail stations
- Non-availability and high cost of DPK at retail stations

Clueless and enriching the elites at the expense of masses.

MizMyColi:
I may be wrong about this, but isn't there a law that protects people's right to practice their religion freely?

Which is more graver?

Burning a quran

or

Naming a dog quran?

And this points me to my earlier assertion.

If a muslim man burns cartons of bible in a christian community, you will agree with me that he might get away with it because the christians will see him as someone whom God will judge and rain fire/brimstone on.

But if a christian so much as burns a page of the quran in a predominantly muslim community, then he and his entire generation will pay for it.

Looking at both scenarios above, you will agree with me that we are now conditioned to accept as being okay, the killing of a christian or southerner by an Hausa/Fulani muslim just because he feels unrest with the slain's activities.

If he named his Dog, Obama or Kennedy, or even Ojukwu in the cachement areas of the names I just mentioned, I doubt that such irresponsible action by the police would have ensued.

But if he named his dog f**k Ojukwu or f**k Obama, then he can actually be accused of breaching public peace, because humans generally do not like being insulted, how much more an entity of their adulation.

Gradually, but steadily, and with posts like the OP's, we now accept barbarism in the face of provocation as a norm as long as it is perpetrated by a northerner.

Let me tell you what the Police could have done.

Instead of humiliating him and making him go through harrowing ordeals; knowing fully well that he has not flouted any known law, he would have been invited calmly, and a diplomatic/tactical way of resolving the issue established.


The stand I have maintained on this thread is the policemen did wrong, they abused his rights.

Ngozi123:
1) Buhari is not an Hausa man.
2) The complainant(s) themselves said that their issue with the accused was solely about the name of his dog being the same as that of the neighbour's father, or do you know more than them with regards to this story?
3) The police were wrong to arrest and detain him as they had no legal grounds of arrest.
4) I didn't say that it wouldn't stir up trouble if you or any Hausa man were to do that in an Igbo settlement- in fact, I said quite the opposite. The police should have dissipated the situation by giving the accused a stern talking to for his behaviour and warning the complainant about wasting valuable police time and resources. They really can't do much else.
5) My feelings for President Buhari are irrelevant in this matter as it had nothing to do with him, according to the complainants.

Sweetle:
omenka/progressive01/progress69, you really suffer for your own thread ooo

Even your yoruba gods have abandoned you.

MizMyColi:
Actually, @the reddened,
You insulted someone.

It is obvious to all and sundry that when I say, F**k you, Progress69 that all I am calling for is trouble.

But if I named my dog or cat or one of my Kids, progress69, pray tell, which one sounds graver to you?

Chinakwe might have acted out of mischief or pure admiration.

It is because of how tribally polarized we have become, else, this shouldn't be making news.
If the dog were named Goodluck Jona now, I would not feel bad or perhaps I might have mixed feelings....because I know that after his time in office, a lot of people have good perception of Jonathan.

So if truly Buhari's followers are satisfied with his performance and truly feel that the hatred people mete on him is unfounded, why are they angry that a man named his dog, Buhari?

If a dog were named after me, I wouldn't feel irked. B

Whatever the man's motives were.
It is not enough reason to have him arrested.
It is not.

Ngozi123:
First of all, Buhari the APC leader is not an Hausa man. Secondly, everything else you wrote is irrelevant as the complainant clearly stated that the reason for his annoyance on the issue was because he believed that the accused named his dog after his father, not the President. However, for argument's sake, let's assume that the man named his dog after the APC leader- he didn't- if you wore a placard insulting Ojukwu or B.iafra then I'm sure that you'll get verbally abused by the traders there but that doesn't mean that you should be arrested for it. If the police were competent, in that scenario, then they'll just remove you from that area, give you a stern talking to and perhaps even confiscate your placard. It really is that simple.

Ngozi123:
This is start of a very slippery rope for Nigerians. How does one determine whether something can cause a "breach of peace"? Is it up to the complainant to decide or must a third party do so? I ask this because even the most common of things could be determined to cause a "breach of peace", from having a verbal disagreement with someone to wearing a sign around my neck saying "so and so's mother is a LovePeddler", or something to that effect. The only thing that distinguishes between them is the reaction of the victim. Where does the line stop?

jmoore:
You see, you exhibited your ignorance. Your point is only valid for zombies who unleash physical terror on anyone that doesn't agree with them.

You cannot quote the law he broke and you said my opinion is inconsequential. No wonder your country is referred to as a zoo because of folks like you.

cpapa:
the way u insult people it's either ur in yr1 or 2nd yr

jmoore:
Ignorance at its peak. No wonder they call folks like you zombies.
Is there any law that forbids naming a dog? Or are there names that cannot be given to dogs according to the constitution?
If the answer to the above is no and you still condemn someone for naming a dog, then you need brain surgery.

Tittos:
Nigerians can never be logical.. There would always argue with silly sentiments.. @op, ur post is blank and really just itchy and senseless. Was hoping to see an intelligent argument backed by the constitution. No one is arguing if the dude was right or wrong or if his actions were born out of hate or stupidity. Point is, its in his right to do so. If u go to Enugu and parade a dog named Ojukwu, the residents will probablyhate you, but that doesn't mean its illegal or you should be arrested for expressing your rights. If the police do arrest you, then intelligent Nigerian should still call for your rights to be respected.
You guys need to understand democracy. It seems like that word is really difficult for your lot to comprehend. Something being wrong doesn't mean its illegal.. If the neighbour had an issue with the name,he should have taken it to court because that is a purely civil matter. Only criminal cases are or should be handled by the police. Unfortunately Buhari and most of you guys do not know and understand demcracy, while the police that should know better are spinless and only do as ordered...

jmoore:
Go acquire a brain then we can discuss.

Which law did he break? Quote the law or forever remain silent.

jmoore:
Na you get sense abi?

Which law forbids someone to name a dog?

helpee:
Buhari is not comfortable with the rising profile of jonathan so he is bent on tarnishing his image. Lai Mohammed said the allegations liking Jonathan to Niger delta bombings has refused to go away same way allegations buhari sponsored boko haram refused to go away, same way allegations buhari has no certificate therefore commited perjury which is criminal refused to go away... Hope lai Mohammed will remember to tell the security apparatus to probe buhari too. These tyrants so obviously intolerant of opposition

MONITZ:
Mr. Idiot, good morning oh, I hope u re done opening that ur garbage filled mouth,one funny truth is:people like u who re always quick to insult people online re cowards in reality.So enjoy ur Dutch bravery while it lasts.

andyanders:
I think you must be one of those people that own PHCN and wants to come on air to talk of power supply.

No power at all.Stop this nonsense publication.

bishopkay:
The cars na kom wetin? He stopped collecting the allowances accrued to former HOS but it's not pension? What is it then?

This people are so funny. They think Nigerians are fools. Well technically most Nigerians are fools because only a fool would vote in an old certificate less bigot with a penchant for obsolete economic policies and expect him to transform a multi facetted economic clime as Nigeria’s into London.

adeusolu:
Have mercy on those animals.

Typical of your origin... Cruelty and wickedness is part of you..,

EVIL LOT.

MONITZ:
Nigerians are a very funny lot,its only in Nigeria that u see people giving plaudits to somebody who is only performing his duties.

Is it that poverty has so battered our senses that we don't reason well as normal human beings again??,maybe we ve been so battered that things which ordinarily should be a right or necessity are now seen as luxuries.

@ op, is the light free of charge or they re paying for it??

This ur nonsensical observation truly shows that we still ve a very very very long way to go as a country because of the kind of people inhabiting this geographical location called Nigeria and we also deserve the kind of leaders that we ve.

tartar9:
Yes o,it has greatly improved to its normal level before buhari.

PaulIdu:
Stop lying abeg ..no significant omprovementp

rusher14:
Although I think this coincides as usual with the rainy season, it would do a world of good if you specified your location.

shukuokukobambl:
You're actually worse than a zombie. What is the meaning of the bolded? Do you have self esteem problems?

Are Bode George, Agbaje, Mimiko, Fayose, FFK, Afenifere, Gani Adams, Aribisala not all yoruba? are they not vehemently against Buhari? What is special about your so-called yorubaness that you are struggling so much to convince yourself?

Can't you make your point without involving Yoruba abi are there no Igbos, Ikwerres, Ijaws in APC? What the fvck concerns anybody if you are even the PDP mascot?

What concerns the Yoruba with your PDP frustrations? Warn yaself o!!
