And what makes them think it was the pudding that killed them.
It could be the soup that was served with it.... or the water they drank... or the utensils.
They had a meal and died after the fact.
The autopsy will reveal the smoking gun.

IamDietiesGod:
Did ASSU president actually said they should vote the APC-led government out?. Yes, he did.

Fact check: https://www.nairaland.com/7279052/ASUU-president-emmanuel-osodeke-asks

Did Minister of labor actually leave the meeting angrily?. As stated above, Yes he did.

Conclusion; They both played politics with students life and future

Verdict: They are both useless and mad. Useless miscreants.

It is not 'playing' politics. This is serious business. Serious deal making. It is the responsibility of a union to seek the best for it's members and if a certain government cannot deliver it can and should dialogue with any political party that will.

That is how democracy works. This is not feudalism that the word of the king is law. Those in government are not kings and princes and the unions and workers slaves. Those in authority were put there, were voted in to perform.

If they cannot deliver they open the door for others. It is the people who own the democracy not any political party or group of leaders.

So discard any unwanted blackmail. The people are now waking up to the power of their franchises. Nigeria will be better for it.

successmatters:
I voted for Atiku because of my belief that Peter Obi can stabilise that government. I will not vote for Atiku again. We are demanding for a better tomorrow and Peter Obi and Yusuf Baba Datti Ahmed will may not disappoint us.

This is the best you get out of hoping on people.
To get precisely what you want from democracy the first thing to do is to elect leaders you can control... then direct them towards what you expect. But to elect people and hope they perform is not democracy.
Hope is not a strategy.

Bro!! WtF z wrong with black people

Like you have not heard about GP Harold Shipman who murdered over 250 before he was caught.
Evil has no profile.... colour, race, religion or sex.

Even 'oyibos' are 'singing in the rain'.... all because of the 'Devil's Doo-doo' aka crude oil.

.... this is... just one kind.
Just don't know what to say.... sad.... really sad.
You will expect that the largest black nation in the world deserves better.
When will we get leaders that do not have issues, I mean two, three, four quality candidates going head to head to produce excellent electoral choices.
Why always Hobson's Choice... election after election.
Is this what we are going to be doing for four.... eight years in our present, sorry state as a country

Manuel69:
Read to understand.
She's being offered her husband's vacant slot

To be a motorbike outrider in the CEO's convoy
And what do you call slot?... a job or a vacancy just to occupy space...?

Advancedman:
Does it mean that all their wives are jobless and parasitics because I don't understand everytime they get automatic job, that means they were not being taking care of in the first place.
Nigeria should take care of the wives of officers while in active service and beyond because they are partners with their husbands in serving the nation.
Their family welfare must and should be prioritize.

And why should this be.
What is wrong with you folks.
What is happening in this country for heavens sake.
These people consume almost the entire budget and 100 percent of revenue presently and it doesn't occur to anyone that the over-bloated civil service is running this country aground.

gasparpisciotta:
That is how the federal civil service is structured.
The death of a spouse gives automatic employment to the surviving partner or dependent.

Little wonder the civil service doesn't work.
Just an agency of settlement.
In which serious nation outside Nigeria does this happen.

Insure your personnel, pay hazard allowances, contribute towards the family of the deceased.
And that is enough.
The service should be filled with people competent to do their jobs and urgently required for specific, pressing assignments and tasks.

This is just third world thinking.

Tonyreal49:
1 person walked into the field, cops tried taking control, more ppl ran into them. they fought, cops sprayed the gas including the ppl on tribune even tho they did nothing. they're panicked while suffocating, they ran into the exit gate which barely opened.they fell and died

If a panic is triggered the best place to move is to the centre of the structure or facility, never the exits or gates as they are proportionally small even in the best designed public areas.

The only exceptions to this is in the event of a fire or a terrorist attack.

I won't put it past bad officiating.
Injustice always comes with a hefty price tag.

arantess:
hmmmm,

a plane with only 7 copies is what they are considering

shouldn't they allow for more test runs and use by other clients first?

Abi oh.
That is how Ethiopia Airlines rushed into acquiring the Boeing 737 Max with disastrous consequences.
And the end of the story read that, their pilots could not interpret the reactions of the plane to the flying conditions encountered while their American counterparts coped well.
Let others more endowed pace set with new tech, new equipment. And for a rookie country in aviation this internship should take a long, long time.

....Guinea Pig Republic of Nigeria..... where lives indeed do matter.
Instead of waiting for the rest of the world that is more experienced in aviation matters to give the green light.

Fred166:
Good evening everyone.

Most nigerian movies can be so meaningless. You can even fathom the message they are trying to pass. Always acting meaningless scripts with funny titles.

We also have a TV in our bedroom, so my wife was watching a Nigerian movie while I was working on my office files.

I can't even puzzle out the excitement in that movie. All I was hearing is some lousy actors making noise and the poor suspense sound track. You need to see my wife looking so tensed & serious, flapping her both hands like a bird that is about to fly while screaming “enter the car drive! drive! drive!

I said Aunty easy o, Then I asked her the title of the movie, she said "The pregnant ghost". I said pls came again, you say? She didn't answer then I picked up the remote to check the title then booom!! The pregnant ghost

I was just laughing seriously, I've to capture it. then I asked her whether she have seen a ghost before not to talk of a pregnant one? And she said what! If I want to know if ghost dey carry belle that I should join her and watch the movie too.

I jejely carried my office files and my laptop, walk straight to the sitting and continue my job. Because if I talk otherwise about that movie na problem for me and I don't want her wahala this night.

Then she asked where am I going? I said this movie is so interesting and it's making me loose focus on the work I'm doing, so I'm going to the sitting room were I can concentrate.

Abeg, those of you that watch this kind of movie, please what are the moral lessons?

In the next world you may consider elevating your choice of partner.
Harsh but the fact.

Said it that day.
That is was a thoughtless comment with far reaching fallout.
Set him back politically.

And on another post someone is blaming as usual colonial rule for the black man's troubles.
Did the PDP phone Clarence House for approval to give out a whooping 122 million as 'allowances' in an insolvent economy.
Our problems are domiciled in us and are bound to continue and escalate while we play the ostrich.

And you can imagine some 'sick' citizens defending this nonsense.

Kollabo419:
Nna mehnnn...

No chills for these set of abusive dictators who holds no regards for us then and now

We were colonized by a stringent and high handed fradusters
Maybe France , Switzerland or Germany would have been better because all countries under them seems to be doing well today not so for UK

Eh, naso. Na only Africa Britain colonise.
Is India not doing well, how about Singapore and even HongKong just let go as recently as 1997.
The black man must always look sideways when responsibility is mentioned.
Look at South Africa gradually returning to the 'black man default settings'.
Haven't added a single megawatt since Mandela died and power failure is their new normal.

robinso01:
We are concerned about 2023 right now

Not all of us.
Some of us can't understand the rumpus when it is clear nothing has been learnt.
Wise minds are bracing for impact and factoring the inevitable error into their future decisions.
Better do sound risk assessment.

Laggafin:
Why make him look bit younger in de coin.. he's an old KiNG.. period

Just want to talk.
Can't you see the sagging jowls.
Minting is difficult.

Can the black man ever govern himself successfully.
Can the black man evolve viable societies.
Singapore got her independence in 1963.
Much of Africa got theirs before that.
The same Britain and France that colonised Africa colonised much of Asia.
What is our problem here.

And the corruption continues.... nothing has changed with the PDP.
And if they win, nothing will change in Nigeria.

omonla10:
I live around there.. Most cars use the one way because the other side of the road is not motorable.. Even jeeps will suffer on that road. Yet govt turned a blind eye over a year now

When government comes against you with the law, you go against them for pushing you to disobey the law.
You don't take the law into your hands. Fight the government not the law. That is how sane societies work.
But because of feudalism in these parts the citizens fear their leaders more than the law and yet they expect their leaders to fear the law and govern well.

Jostoman:
the driver should be arrested and sentence to 30 years imprisonment. but I still stand with JANDOR that says people's livelihood should not be taking and sell off.

So if he is sentenced to jail what concerns him with livelihood. Will he not be housed and fed at taxpayers expense.
Can he be driving his bus in jail.
His bus is the object of a crime, a weapon of manslaughter and has to be denied him.

If your house is used for kidnapping it will be seized, if your dog attacks someone it will be put down, if your car kills why shouldn't it be taken.
And if you are caught in the act of manslaughter by driving against traffic then the government reserves the right to confiscate your vehicle and auction it to ensure you never use it for such crimes in the future, period.

Cars don't kill, people do. That is why you must be separated from your car when you attempt to kill and the car sold off not destroyed.

Here they come again. Band-aid on cancer.
Nigerians truly deserve the leaders they get.
A people cannot experience better than they are competent to understand.

Nigeria is gripped by the kind of run away inflation citizens of other nations are seriously concerned about.
Here the people don't care and the government is comfortable in that fact.
They take your livelihoods and give you reliefs to seek your permission to continue after the fact.
Such a sorry people.

Hmmm.... doesn't look in good shape.... at all.
Wish him the best.

Mr. Peter Obi has a lot of work to do to succeed.
He needs an experienced team of advisors to coach and shepherd him through this electoral expedition that can easily and quickly become a political minefield with very damning consequences if he says or does things that can be misconstrued or manipulated for propaganda.

If he cannot do this quickly then I advise him to steer clear of any stone that has an ethno-religious indication.
He is coming from a politically disadvantaged background where serious suspicions remain, sentiments that are hardy and cannot easily be washed away by the misgovernance presently witnessed in Nigeria or the attendant hardship brought upon the citizens of this country.

We can see how this seemingly wise and innocuous position has been quickly spun and tossed into the mudpit of ethno-religious tensions.

valentineuwakwe:
Season of retirement!

Indeed.
Serena, Federer..... CR7??
Did you see him against Spain..... shocking.

Dude don go bleach skin at 35. What a joker

Are these the same.... did he do an ear job as well.

ebenezer95:
We didn't get any information about her fall any sick at all why the sudden death something is happening here may her soul rest in perfect peace

That is what they are saying.
That a death without a health related cause at her age is death by 'old age'.

oluwaseyi0:
monarchy is the second biggest scam perpertuated by human on fellow human, the first is religion
imagine a man being my father's king, then he becomes my king then his son becomes the king of my son and so on
all they need to qualify is been born while all my kid need to be disqualify is been born

But her father was not to be king.
He had to assume the throne when his brother abdicated to live his life as he pleased.
In order to prevent a constitutional crises her father became king.
So what they 'enjoy' today they had by default.
And this is a lot better than times of antiquity when kingship was at the tip of the sword and the throne was only obtainable by war and conquest.

SenecaTheYonger:
if there's one person that flexed this Earth from birth to death, during my life time, it's the queen. She never passed through a single hard time.

Indeed as concerning the things we consider hard such as the basics of life.
But remember as a child she witnessed the second world war.
Something that most will never experience.
