Since the death of Sister Osinachi (Ekwueme Singer), the call for married people to walk out of an abusive partner/marriage has heightened up. So many people are lending their voices to this call. This call is a good one and acceptable to a point. My question is this: Let's assume a Pastor has put up this call, asking every woman to leave a marriage where the husband is abusive. How do you think the Netizens will react to this call? Do you think the Pastor will be supported or called Home Breaker Pastor? Don't we think the Pastor will be dragged and termed a fake Pastor? Your Opinion please. |
Pro. Soludo, I must tell you that you're taking this the wrong way. You're going to make these guys become more brutal. Ending the Monday sit at home shouldn't be what you should come to boast publicly that you'll stop and deal with them. You're heading towards creating more enemies for yourself. This will make your tenure very difficult for you. Pretend as if you really understand their anger and promise to work with them to sort things out. Let them see you as someone on their side. They'll develope high respect for you and tend to listen to you when call them. With that Anambra will at least be peaceful till you sort out a way to handle the issue. You're behaving as if the power at Aso Rock has ordered you to go and eliminate IPOB. If people have this feeling, your tenure will be bitter for you |
obembet:You should also try to polish your grammar construction to make it more palatable while reading it. Thanks |
TheOldGods:If you know she is not good for you, tell her off. I seriously dislike all these childish games that will at the end of the day put u and your friend at battle ends when you can peacefully quite any relationship that will not work for you. |
yinkaOdutuyo:I couldn't finish reading this piece of sh!t. Oga, you and your wife need to go back to the drawing board and set things right. With this sh!t you wrote here, I can only say that what you have is a house and not a home. This is a kind of Continue like this and it won't be long you guys will be planning on how to eliminate each other. Bn a man and manning up is not by showing muscle and just by displaying that I can beat u up at any time. Bn a man means showing more wisdom to that woman than she has. Sorry to say this. Your action was a bit below what I expected you to do as a man. I don't want to talk about your wife. There are so many wise ways you can make your partner do what you want her to do without applying any force. She will do it, still remain happy doing it. If you are mature to get married, be matured to learn the intricacies and tricks opened for a man in a family. |
Na the gods dey chase away flies for the nyash of cow wey no get tail. Pesin wey dey pursue innocent chick, na fall em go fall. Chick go run away. Head wey go enter bee hive, na im go collect enough sting from bees. Dem no dey tell deaf pesin say war don start. |
Kiddwaya, I know that you are just indirectly making fun with this, if not i for curse u. What has Buhari's regime used to hold the economy, life and future of this country. If he had even tried to use stone to hold us, things 4 even better for us here. The man just carelessly left this country to be rolling to destruction without anything holding or stopping it. The people that held that stand with stone are so merciful. They should have allow the man to fall the same way everything is falling in this country. Nonsense. |
TheOldGods:Na dem. Stylish advert. Many will still fall for it. |
Pele10:The worst part of this lie was where she said that after Bianca slapped her, she didn't bother to slap back. She just walked away. Chaii, see executive lie oo. This woman that was dragging to go fight Bianca is saying that she walked away. This woman need more slap. |
TheGidRedpiller:I felt so bad reading this. You may have your reason to feel the way you are feeling about ur mother. I want to let u know that she still remains a mother to you. Stop all this attitude u are displaying here. I don't think it makes u look wise. Don't even feel that her curse may be empty. Be careful so that you don't find urslf in very bad situation in future. I am telling you out of experience. Go make peace wt ur mother now that she is still alive. Your mother may be wrong and you too is also wrong. Her curses may have effect on u. Be careful. You have the right to accept this or throw it away. |
sheanzy:Oh .. sorry about that |

DrGoodman:So you are saying that the Oga should catch all of them same time? Most times, we think we are making sense while we are talking rubbish. Just like saying that a Police Officer that caught or killed armed robber is biased. Why killing that robber while there are many robbers in the country. Well, one or two must be caught at a time and used as deterrent. There's nothing like bn biased in that. |
ElonEmpire:Oga stop bn a Solution when you are still a Problem to be solved. You don't understand it...right? All I mean is that, you have to stand well before you start growing branches. If not the branches will fall you down. It is very good to help people, but don't take too much responsibilities that may weigh you down. I am talking out of experience. Try to focus more on yourself and family. Wen you make it, you will be able to do greater things for people. This might be the area your wife is kicking from. Women (good ones) will always think of their immediate families (Husband & kids) securing a better future before thinking of any other relative. You still have a long way to go. Think about that. Even the Bible says, "love your neighbour as you love yourself." It never says love them more than yourself. When you start doing more for ur neighbours more than you do for yourself/family, na sin ooo. |
Don't go taking loan when you don't have means of paying back or taking loan you have already made up ur mind not to repay. You are young today and you forget to think of your tomorrow. This singular act may come haunting your success tomorrow. This character can be used against you at the point of your success. You may get an international appointment/job. Presenting this dishonest act may rob u of the opportunity. What if you goes into politics and someone brings this up? Take a loan. Pay for it. If there are challenges that may stop you from paying at the right time. Go back to the loan firm and renegotiate. |
comrChris:Please, can you give us the true story since this one is nonsense. |
If this one come carry this hand wey em dey use dig ground slap you ehnn... E go be like say na shovel dem take slap you. |
bluefilm:He is not the one behind those projects in Ebonyi State. The Islamic Organization is behind it. They have a plan of taking over that state in the near future. That is why you will see the biggest Islamic School in Nigeria right there in Ebonyi State. You see the Islamic religion seriously converting those Eboyians to become Moslems. Umahi is just a mere supervisor of the project. He has no options than to carry out those projects just the way his masters want. Ok...tell me. DO you want to tell me that Umahi is such a saint that will not like to embezzle state resources just like his fellow governors are doing. What is the IGR of that State. Compare it with the kind of projects completed and those still going on. Do you think the the allocation and IGR of that state can handle them? |
I love them so much. Four of them looking so fierceful in my house. They are loyal and protective.

Joseph Egbunike, the Deputy Inspector General of Police in charge of the Force Criminal Investigations Department, is dead. A police officer, who preferred anonymity, told our correspondent that the senior police slumped in his office on Tuesday and was rushed to the National Hospital where he was confirmed dead. Egbunike, before he was appointed a DIG in 2020, headed the Force Finance Department, and subsequently deployed to head Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department of the Force (FCIID). The deceased headed the Panel the Inspector General of Police, Usman Alkali Baba, set up to probe allegations the FBI levelled against Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari. The FBI had said suspected billionaire fraudster, Ramon Abbas, also known as Hushpuppi, sent some money to Kyari, an allegation the policeman denied. Months later, the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) indicted Kyari over a cocaine deal. Kyari is currently in detention. The Anambra State-born officer was named to head the probe panel set up by the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba last year to investigate alleged link of Abba Kyari with the billionaire fraudster, Abbas Ramon popularly known as Hushpuppi. When contacted to confirm the death of the senior officer, the Acting Force Spokesman, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, terminated the calls pulled across to his mobile phone, and he was yet to respond to a text message sent to him as of the time of filing this report.

sukkot:Yeah, giving info for what you don't know about is bad. I don't do dat. You just need to understand one's point of view. Sometimes, wen u fail to see things from that person's stand, it does not mean that the person is giving false info. Tell the person to throw more light why he/she believed he is right on his opinion. You may be shocked that the person really has a good point which you never realized. We learn everyday...that is if we rally wanna learn. |
sukkot:Try to uphold good manners even in a faceless social media. It will help u culture yourself. If you keep doing wrong thing cos no one knows who you are, with time, that will become your character and you will start exhibiting it in your real life. You become what you repeatedly do. |
sukkot:I believe you can still make your contributions without abusing or insulting any one. Or were you not trained to be civil? |
Hashabiah:Wait until China, Russia or any Arab nation becomes the world super power nation. By then, you'll understand what that guy is saying. |
Totilopussylick:Dumb submission. So if you can afford gun, you give it as souvenir? Do you realize that those cans of fuel can cause fire disaster that can cause loss of life and property? People have lost sanity in this country. |
Merlissa:No.... The boyfriend is an ass man. That's why she has to place him under her ass. |
She has been reaching heaven when she uses level 1 and 2. Then, she wanted to see God. That was when she tried level 6. Unfortunately, the thing carried her to Satan's corridor. She was very lucky that Satan was not in the house they time. |
GLORIA OKON, The Story Of Nigeria's Most Mysterious Drug Pusher Gloria Okon was caught in 1985 with heroin in Nigeria and died in very controversial circumstances. FULL NAMES (alternate names): Miss Gloria Okon BIRTH AND EARLY DAYS She was born in 1950. HER ARREST On the 22nd April, 1985, a petite society lady, Gloria Okon, was about to board a Nigeria Airways aircraft WT840 (Lagos-Kano-London) at the Aminu Kano International Airport, Kano State when she was arrested with substances suspected to be heroin and other hard drugs (the National Security Organization, NSO or Nigeria’s secret intelligence agency is often mentioned in her arrest). Tucked in internally were 56.70 grammes of the substances. She was also caught with the sum of N20,000, 60 pounds sterling, $301 and 19,000 Italian lira. The customs officers and drug law enforcement agents were very excited to have nabbed her, not because they had caught her alone but because they would also be stars of the show for a while as all the arrests were being made by their counterparts at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos. But their jowls of excitement were pangs of sheer agony for the 35-year-old Okon. Why? The year was 1985 and anyone caught with drugs would face the death penalty, no stories. That was the provision of the Decree 20 put in place by the junta of General Muhammadu Buhari . She was going to die, and she knew it. Stunned and stupefied at her sudden stare at death, Okon became an unwilling and helpless star before the nation’s news-thirsty media. Newspapers and magazines contained her story and the radios gave the chilly broadcast. For many who read the story or heard the announcement, it was not a big deal they thought, she was going to be executed like others. But then, there would be a twist in Okon’s story that would turn her into the most mysterious drug pusher in Nigeria’s history. What happened next still remains very bizarre even 37 years after. DEATH On the 28th April, six days after her arrest, the most unexpected happened: Gloria Okon died in custody. From an ordinary ‘heroin suspect’, the sudden demise of Okon led to what is now one of the most enduring narcodramas in Nigeria. She did not just die, she died in very questionable and mysterious circumstances. The Buhari regime would not bury the case and an investigation was launched into the matter, with a judicial commission of inquiry given the complicated task of unraveling all the circumstances surrounding the very suspicious death of Okon who gave up the ghost at the Aminu Kano Hospital, Kano. INVESTIGATIONS The judicial commission of enquiry working on the Okon case was headed by Justice CNO Ubbaonu of the Kano High Court. It began its sitting in Kano almost three months (precisely 5th Monday, August) after she died. Other members of the panel were: Wing Commander PG Asemota Tunde Oloko, a university don JI Obianwu, who was the secretary The case was so serious that the Inspector-General Etim Inyang was mandated to ensure there is a reasonable conclusion to the case and to make sure all the mysteries are solved. The commission was to carry out three main tasks: Make proper inquiry as to the arrest and death of Gloria Okon Determine whether during the period of her arrest and custody, if any person(s) contributed to her death through acts incidental to the case Make suitable recommendations But that would never happen: on the 27th of that same August, the military regime of Buhari was toppled by General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida and till date, no one knows how it all ended and the demise remains a mystery. However, it must be stated that before she died, Okon reportedly confessed and revealed a ‘big baron’, as a matter of fact, a customs official said of her revelation: ‘If carefully handled, she may lead us to the big brains behind the business.’ But before Okon could even mention the name of her mentor or sponsor, she was stone-dead. According to those who investigated her case and questioned her, the only clue she left was simply the name ‘Bassey’. Ibrahim Coomasie was the commissioner of police for Kano State and he stated that it was almost impossible to track her mentor because Okon did not give the second name of Bassey or even an address, so the investigation met a dead end. The address that was listed against her name, 21 Cole Street, Surulere, Lagos was found to be non-existent. However, it must be pointed out that although Okon was just one of the many female carriers arrested, she was the only drug mule very willing to cooperate and say it all, revealing all information on her sponsors. But before she could utter anything, she was gone. An autopsy conducted stated the cause of death as food poisoning. There was no time Okon showed any sign of ill-health, she was quite healthy when she was arrested as the public inquiry found out but according to Misharck Okitiakpo, a customs officer who kept her in custody, Gloria Okon fell ill just a day after she was arrested. Okitiakpo also explained that on the day she was arrested (22nd), Okon made a request for rice and beans which she was given. But on the 23rd and 24th, she was rushed to the hospital after she complained. But that is where Okitiakpo’s accounts stopped. He did not explain or was unable to explain what happened from the 25th to the 28th when Okon finally breathed her last. Okon had been in the custody of the Customs until the 25th when she was handed to the police. Therefore, it is not precisely clear whether she was poisoned while with the customs or under the police custody where she eventually died. In an interview with The Guardian in May 1985, Coomasie said Okon had changed saying: ‘…the late suspect was not talking when she was brought to the police and did not make any statement to the police, when the police took custody of Okon, she looked weird and neither ate nor talked. ’ But later, she was given some egusi soup by the police (egusi with what? Abi she drink the egusi ni, police no tell us that one). The police also said she took some bananas and tea after the egusi. Amazing food combination: egusi, banana and tea. The mystery of Okon’s case was further deepened when no one showed up to claim her, not even one relative showed to identify her as a suspect or even her corpse. According to Babadisa Ciroma, an assistant commissioner of police (ACP) who was in charge of Okon’s interrogation said no one paid her a visit while in custody or even when she was admitted at the hospital. That was not all, 39 days after her death Okon’s corpse remained unclaimed at the Murtala Muhammed Hospital Mortuary where it was deposited. This prompted the police force Criminal Investigation Department (CID) to issue a notice that her remains might be treated as unknown if it not claimed after seven days of warning to the general public. Apparently embarrassed by the mysterious death of Okon in custody and to prevent a repeat, the government compelled state police commands to transfer suspects and exhibits in cases of hard drugs to the Force CID Headquarters in Lagos by ‘the most expedient means’. The Nigerian nation was supposed to hear from the judicial commission of inquiry by the end of August and shed light on the case but by the end of August, a new leader was in place and he was a military president: IBB. The late lawyer Gani Fawehinmi attempted to resurrect the case but this put him on a path of direct clash with Haliru Akilu and Kunle Togun, two of IBB’s most dreaded security agents. No one was ever charged over the death of Gloria Okon. THE CONTROVERSIES In the absence of a conclusive investigation, so many tales have been spun by many so as to fill in the gaps. According to some, Okon never died, the corpse presented was all a ruse and part of a grand conspiracy. In June 2009, Professor Taiyemiwo Ogunade, in an interview with THE NATION said of the Okon case: ‘Gloria Okon is actually Chinyere, that’s her real name. She married Charles “Jeff” Chandler, the fellow who killed Nzeogwu and was killed a day later. Chinyere, Maryam and Princess Atta were young friends who hung out together. They all married into the military, because the military was a proud and respectable profession then. Charles Chandler, who was Tiv, married Chinyere who I think is from Imo State. IBB married Maryam from Asaba and Mamman Vatsa married the princess. So Chinyere became a widow and resorted to trading between UK and Nigeria. And then she was caught with drugs; Mamman Vatsa was the person who put Chinyere on the next available flight from Kano to London – and then claimed that she was dead by parading a dead woman picked out of the mortuary. Dele Giwa later found out that she was in London having delivered a baby by another man. He sent a French photographer to the place and they saw Maryam Babangida at the event. Kayode Soyinka brought back the photographs. Dele was sitting across the table from Kayode examining the photos taken of “Gloria Okon” (Chinyere, Richard Chandler’s wife) at the naming ceremony in London. Maryam Babangida was there. And then a letter parcel was delivered to him and he said excitedly that it must be from “Mr. President” referring to the discussions he had with IBB days earlier. The bomb exploded and severed his lower abdomen; he died a few hours later.’ Some others say Dele Giwa knew that Okon was Maryam Babangida (or even IBB)’s drug mule and wanted to blackmail IBB, which is why he was killed. Newswatch has denied any link between their late founder who was killed by a parcel bomb in 1986. Tom Mbeke-Ekanem in his book, Beyond the Execution: Understanding the Ethnic and Military Politics in Nigeria insisted the corpse sent to Calabar to Okon’s family was a fake corpse and that the family returned it saying it was not the corpse of their daughter, but that the authorities insisted the corpse was that of Okon. The claim was that the real Okon was freed to go live overseas and replaced with an unclaimed corpse brought in from the mortuary. The crazy controversies around the case prompted the Federal Government to make attempts to unearth everything thus launching the public commission. According to others, she was a drug mule for the former Nigerian First Lady Maryam Babangida shuttling between the USA and Britain and she was killed so she would not squeal. As it is now, the truth is hanging somewhere, and the only way I think Nigerians will eventually get to know the truth is when a government comes and re-opens the case and declassifying all the documents relating to the case. Whether that will take 10 or 100 years, no one knows. But before then, the story of Gloria Okon is one eerie chapter that will continue to haunt the world’s largest black nation.

Pasima:O boy, pls get matured. No be like dis people dey take marry oo. With this, u can wake up and kill this lady or any man u finds around her for no just cause. Your obsession is too much. Can you imagine asking the girl the man she took ice cream with just because u saw two cups of ice cream in her house. Let me assure you one thing. If you continue like dis, the girl will LEAVE YOU for another man. Try to be giving this girl a breathing space for Christ sake. She's just a girlfriend. Allow her to have other life apart from you all the time. She should be allowed to associate and do other thing. Her life should not revolve around u all the time. I'm not saying she should go and start dating other men, but you should learn to give her space. Get busy. Nwoke m jee chuba ego (My man go and make money). A busy man will not be checking how many empty cups of Ice Cream that is in a girl's room. A busy man will not have time to be quarreling with a girl that refused to use his picture on her Status. Get enough money and the babe will be displaying everywhere. Guy, JEE CHUBA EGO. |
Pasima:So because she accepted to be your girlfriend, for that you own her life. Abeg, how old are you? Even if she is your legally married wife, you don't have that right to tell her to use ur pic on her Social media status. You sound like an insecure man. |
Racoon:Not really. They have to send him out very fast before he start mentioning other big names that he has been doing "business" for/with. That his drug business/killings will link so many powerful politicians/businessmen. So the best option will be to send him out to answer for his US case. If not, you can't extradite him when he has a domestic criminal case to answer here. Corrupt Government. |
Bounceboune7:If you are on the salary of 30k/mnth, learn how to live within what you earn. If you think you cannot live within that, then find a way to increase your earnings. Do go living above what is available for you. Don't go into expenditure competition wt people that earn higher than you. Don't live another person's life. There are 30K earners still doing things better than higher earners. All that is needed is financial discipline and prudent spending. |
