legba1:
That was an offside. The white shirt was not on same line with his attacker EVEN before the ball was released...pls y"all check well. But the chairman na hooligans, he should be fined

Watch again the position of the defender in yellow at the top of the screen when the volley pass was released, not the defender beside him.
Don't you know the rules of the game again??

I am very wary about downloading anything on the web from unknown sources but just had to do this and i must say it was a clear goal. No offside here at all. The stadium has artificial turf and the contrasting sections draws a clear line showing the defender about a yard behind the forward when the ball was released.

The LMC should review the video and take appropriate action against the referees for that terrible decision to disallow the goal and for Kano Pillars.... honestly they are just symptomatic of all that is wrong in Nigeria and black Africa in general.... disgusting.

Aidejay:
State owned law enforcement go hard ooh. Unleashing destruction because the people questioned you.

Don't start this propaganda please.
The state of public services is a reflection of the quality of governance.

If properly elected leadership that is accountable to the citizens is in place, state police will have no option than to follow the rules of law and the rules of engagement.

The police in Nigeria, the road traffic agency in Lagos, etc are a refection of the quality of political leadership which is in turn a reflection of the quality of the process that empowers them.

That is why I finally quit two decades ago. But Abuja is fast catching up the unsavoury rankings as the city deteriorates by the year.

Aren't you guys tired of all these sob stories. Just do what is right at the polls. Be cerebral not emotional if your situation will not become worse, far worse in another twelve months.

But there is something at El-Dorado aka Aso Rock that nullifies all this, some electromagnetic force that made Lipton Tea drinkers in the early days of 2015 become the global yardstick for 'squandermainia' (apologies to the late Sani Abacha) and heavenly 'gbesenomics'..... ah, ah, why is my system deleting these words.... abeg leve me jor....

Good one.
Great development, investing into alternative means of delivering basic healthcare.
Other states should wake up or bet left completely behind.
Invest is basic amenities and halt the population drift and with it economic seeds of future growth for people will always gravitate towards areas of better governance.

LadyD22:
Oya let me buss your brain
Both the before and after pics were makeup
It is a technique used by makeup artists to advertise and exaggerate how the audience and customers rate their makeup skills
In movies who do you think is in charge of turning your beautiful actresses to ugly old hags , makeup artist , who draws the disgusting fake injuries used in movies make up artist , who changes the skin color of people in movies to depict poverty and then lighten it to depict wealth , it's still the makeup artist
They use their brushes to create both ugly and old and then swip some more and the men scream SORCERY BURN ALL THE MAKEUP ,

Its adorable how easy it is to trick the most logical thinking gender on the universe , I'm more curious on who came up with the idea that women were emotional and men are logical , look at them crying because of makeup someone else is wearing , some have gone to report us to their mummy friends

There's no way a woman would apply makeup that you won't know that she applied makeup , no matter how hard you want to blend it in , it is inevitable and most times the makeup could fade away as time passes, this means that if you went out with a woman in the morning and she had a full face beat, by noon you should be able to see her actual skin , sweat and everything will clear it off and what's left is just lashes and a dying lipstick
So all these men shouting about being deceived have probably been fncking with s*x dolls and not actual human beings ,it's tiring hearing you people whine about everything a woman does , aren't you supposed to be ruling the world or something ?

Then stop applying the damn thing and the confusion will cease.
Warris all dis.
Do you people act movies everyday, haba.
Play reality tv sometimes nau.

Ha....!!!!

"Dinner', not "Owambe', charge and bail please beware.....

Oyecool:
I just don't understand you people are always negative is it GEJ that box us into the nonsense by sacking Prof. Berth Nnaji for rejecting the idea of privatization of power sector without due process and placement of non revocable clause to deter subsequent President to severe the devilish contract.

This one is still in 2013 or 14 doing history lessons.

Anyway Nigerians are still blaming Lord Luggard whom I'm certain blamed Mungo Park before him.

Meanwhile they are preparing to elect another fossil into office.

Na una Sabi.

'We will' people.
Government of "we willers'.
Now in it's twilight with a few months to go shouldn't it be writing it's Will.

It depends how on when those pictures were taken. Some of those places have deteriorated badly. The city is suffering from congestion right down to the centre and public works are creaking.

That is the lot of the engineering profession.

You probably started young, too young to know the implications on family, friends and relationships the totally unpredictable times and seasons the profession throws up so that you made it a point of duty to create a family around that with full disclosures to your better half before tying the knot.

A core engineer will only have time for family when he grows old and retires to the office or from the job completely.
You're lucky. I know some folks that spend only three weeks a year with their loved ones.

bluefilm:
Will he be paid for sweeping the EFCC premises for the two weeks?

Paid.... when he should be in a chain gang.... what do you mean?

obembet:
Expect more criminals, penalty is too poor



And Peter Obi...

Any leader operate under APC and PDP are criminal.

Before you defend any politicians, swear with your life that the person is saint.

Public works is better.
Environmental sanitation like clearing drains, horticulture, and other stuff that government cannot handle.

GOTv subscription is far too low honestly....

ufotunang:
This buhari government sef.. everywhere protest , strike.... nawaoooo

The engine of state is grinding to a halt. The government itself has acknowledged it is in full blown bankruptcy, borrowing to pay salaries and perhaps to flush the toilets in state house. The economy is about to 'knock'. Get ready to trek to safety.

kingamaa:
This is stupidity of the highest order.

Why transfer your issue with your management on the passengers.

Na wa o. Which kin tactics be that

That is how they get attention.
If this did not happen will you hear they have not been paid for six months.
The alternative will be to shut down the airports, but then government lackeys will accuse them of economic sabotage and being security threats and leaders will be emboldened by this to send the DSS after them..... not so.

So the tactics will be to 'bite and administer laxatives', like some hardy blood sucking predators I know.
We have cultivated a country where the leaders do not respect or dread the led so we stumble through day by day.

You dare not owe staff of Heathrow or JFK without serious consequences, that will see government intervention in a matter of hours.... not months..

And I hope they are profiled enough to ensure they do not get jobs in other establishments.

Like I said earlier, having a PVC in Nigeria is like betting on Manchester City to win the league with your house at the end of last season only to discover that they have begun to exchange their players and coaching crew wholesale for Southampton's.....

When you have a Football Association so poorly structured, a game so unprincipled, and teams so wishy-washy, no one will ever win a bet... or should I say in this case, win any dividend of democracy. That is why elections increasingly have so few takers, no confidence at all in the whole thing.

Just last weekend a governor of a whole state of 3 million was elected by less than 200,000 people.... what kind of poor mandate is that, but of course that is why he will not serve them.

Restructure Nigeria, change the game and its rules to bring citizens out and the cycle of good governance and a virile democracy will be established.

Nukilia:
Use your sense! GEJ never put any credible structure in place for subsidy removal; the APC criminals rode on the protest to deceive the masses. Peter Obi is also coming to impoverish more people because a sectional president can not lead this country successfully.

A regional prime minister for each 6 geopolitical region will solve this criminal enterprise

GEJ never put any credible structure in place for subsidy removal..... but at least he went the furthermost on this knotty matter, being the most courageous leader so far in taking the boldest step of our time.

the APC criminals rode on the protest to deceive the masses. .... when or if Mr. Tinubu becomes President, the choice of running mate may not turn out to be the biggest albatross he faces but the subsidy question. I just wonder what on earth he will say to Nigerians in convincing them it has to go....after his very public and well publicized actions during the GEJ regime.

It will be a case of damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. I just cannot see his regime being a peaceful and thus progressive one, but one of running battles with unions and activists here and there with the ghosts of social media pursuing him from pillar to post, reminding him of his past 'sins'.

Peter Obi is also coming to impoverish more people because a sectional president can not lead this country successfully...... On the contrary, I think Peter Obi is the best person and in the best position to solve this subsidy quagmire.

For one, his position concerning the matter has been consistent over the years, that it is a total waste.

Secondly, he has never weaponized the sticky wicket for political gain in the past, he has not been in any decision making process for or against subsidy so he will be given the benefit by the public.

Thirdly, his brand of politics is the closest to an ideologically driven one, one of economic conservatism, which will not fit the palette of elitist Nigeria but will win over the poorest of the poor, the biggest resistance to subsidy.

And finally, he has demonstrated in the past that he can generate the revenues to either maintain subsidy if a gun is placed to his head, or build alternate investments to nullify subsidy or build palliative cushions by being a big ticket financial conservator. This is entirely different from the borrow to spend ideology of the present regime or the tax to spend ideology of any potential Tinubu regime as evident in the economy of Lagos state.

So I cannot see where Peter Obi being a sectional leader in the face of such grave national issues comes from, except if obviously you cannot rise above pervading ethnic sentiments.... like most Nigerians.

If we are to look to any one of the leading candidates as a solution to this serious subsidy issue, Mr Obi (based on antecedents) has the best chance of sorting it out least painfully.

Elections do have serious consequences.

Where are those selling their votes for N5,000. That will soon be five litres for four years of democracy come 2023. Let me see if you can turn five litres to 'feed' three thousand kilometres of innercity transportation.

Honestly, INEC giving out PVC's like candy without a brief sanity or IQ test is a crime against democracy.

Not surprised.
Japan is a very conservative nation.

davodyguy:
Insurance will pay to repair the damaged house and the car

That is what you have in a better society

And the premiums he will pay subsequently will rise astronomically and possibly affect all his other automobiles.
Any accident is costly one way or another, insurance is not free money.

Yet another reason why a PVC is useless and cannot deliver a better life for the average Nigerian.
In a clime where there are no rules, no standards, no honour what is there to invest in.

If you ask me to bet that Real Madrid will beat Millwall I will be excited to wager my house but if the players emerge in the second half and Benzema and Luka Modric are now playing for Millwall and the defence of Millwall has switched to Real Madrid then my wager is just a waste of time and resources.... so is the average PVC as far as this report is concerned.

Restructure Nigeria first to set the rules of the game, develop values and ideologies, then democracy will become meaningful and elections will become tools of national development.

For after 23 years of so called democracy and after 6 general elections if the country is worse than it was in 1999 in all indices of life and decent living and the nation is tottering on the verge of collapse then we must be doing something seriously wrong and persisting in error.

I will be the last to support futile attempt at patchwork nationhood or bask in self delusion that we are making progress. The elections just days ago is further proof that no lessons have been learnt over 23 years. None whatsoever.

Miyachi:
The problem is with the property laws in Nigeria. I think according to the Land Use Act the Sole Administrator of all land in the state is the governor. You're only a lessee.

And who makes the laws, is it not the people through their Representatives. That is where the people know their position, at the top of the democratic food chain. But when they accept to be used as mops to clean the floor, it is the so called leaders that make the laws and certainly to favour themselves.

donaldking10:
I remember a case in Asia where the government had to build a highway around a house just because the owner of the land didn't totally agree with the compensation the government was offering then.
His house was the only house in the middle of a high-way.
He only moved after he was properly compensated by the government.
That is how things are done in saner climes.
But unfortunately here in Nigeria even our justice system is so corrupt that pursuing a case like this against the federal government is almost futile.
Unless you have money to hire human rights lawyers like Falana, then i don't think there's really hope for you.
Even here in the south i can't count the number of houses forcefully taken over & demolished by the likes of Wike & Rochas, yet nothing has been done about them till date.

When citizens will continue to demean themselves by collecting stipends at the polls in exchange for their franchise what do you expect.
They forget that democracy by simple definition puts all the cards in their hands and gives them unmitigated power over those that govern, but just like the tale of the infamous Esau in the Holy Book, 'when he sought his inheritance he was rejected though he wept.'

Folks, politicians in other climes FEAR the citizens that elect them into office. That is the origins of a working justice system. It is not by wishful thinking.
