It's in the interest of the Country's peace that you are

"obviously executed by the DSS to take sail out of the rumour that he has died in their custody"

The Government is good at reacting, almost as good as Nigerians reacting on Twitter

That's my reaction

Paula2018:
A first class graduate who is currently undergoing the one-year compulsory national youth service has been reportedly hit by a stray bullet from unknown gunmen who killed several persons along Peter odili Road in Rivers State.

The deceased identified as Mfoniso Umoh, studied Marine Engineering from the Arab Academy of Maritime Transport.

His friends have continued to mourn him on social media and called on the government and NYSC authorities to do something to fish out the perpetrators of the act and ensure justice is served the family of the deceased.

Tragic

We don't know our people power

The day we do is the day we get it right

That day is not today

Until then, let Femi speak

Akpabio reliving his commissioning days

There's some comfort knowing some kids in Ikot Ekpene will at least have a table to write on

In these perilous times where death is cloth in the rags of nomad herdsmen

He with faith lives

Brain trauma is no joke, you won't even wish on an enemy

Tawakkal-tu-’ala-Allah

Cry for yourself first

If attention was a w.hore, this guy would be a s*x worker

Sad

str8talk1:
who is this fool?

Bia, be kiaful o'

Calling me out, Odikwa risky o'

Make I no table your matter with the executives of SEPCOL

You think I don't know you

RIP

Cultism has a way of cleaning up the gene pool

Every man deserves to leave earth in dignity, dying from a Russian made bullet in Nekede isn't

olassy239:
I thought Lagos should be among in this list

It shouldn't

Go to Ojota, CMS and Ojuelegba at 2am, if you see motorists and passengers then you can add Lagos to your list

Sad

And they look so hungry

Police should re-orient itself on the applications of force

A re-training of officers on how to analyse tense situations and applicable use of force is imperative

It won't cost more than N18m but could save at least 100+ lives annually plus the careers of some ill trained officers

Prettiness is skin deep

Intellect and character goes deep into the extremities of our being

I accept you are pretty, but I can't accept the lie you hate bragging - you just did

Now shift

PrecisionFx:
I didn't. I only followed ur lead.

Okay, I see how it works

That means you are saying you will vote for Buhari

Jizos

PrecisionFx:
Are u saying that if u were a governor in Nigeria u will endorse Buhari .

Jizos.

No, you inferred wrongly

My vote is precious

Kubwa looks really vibrant here

That's the beauty of Abuja

We need more of this comedy shows, anything to distract us from the reality on ground

I'm not a prophet but half of those smiling here have less than 20 litres of fuel in their tank

Oh well, when the laughter dies we'll head to the queues

Another interlude

Interlude

Rituals in the news again

Does it really work? If it does, then why do you pay the Baba - isn't he already rich?

To my S/West brothers living close to affected areas, watch your back, cover your food, don't leave your kids roaming and pray.

Hardship has brought out the devil in some, that's why there's high prevalence of this

Government should start an Anti-Ritual campaign - N50,000+ reward for info leading to the destruction of any shrine

Sit back and watch the calls come in

Nice shirt

I wanted to add that could pay tuition fees for 10 State University undergrads

Then I remembered he already might have, as his Daddy owns a University

So I keep shut, remembering vanity is fleeting and beholden only by those in it's grasp

I'm not in it's grasp

Enjoy your short and awards OBO

Capital flight

75,000 registered Nigerian doctors, 38,000 in the diaspora

There's one of them

Great for her though, we don't even have the equipment to support her expertise

Games kids play

I hope he withdraws on time the day he meets you

Akpabio is back

Reliving is commissioning days of yore

From commissioning billion naira projects to N2.5m uncompleted market stalls with no basic amenities other than to provide shed

Anyways, it still counts for something - at least a 45 year old mother of four somewhere in A/Ibom has a stall to sell her wares

Life lesson

Always look at the positives, no matter how small

Typical Nigerian election news

INEC this, voters material that - poor coordination and no one to hold responsible

You don't need a prophet to tell you more threads like this are coming in 2019

Well done Stephanie

Having had the privilege of hearing their story, ensure the world hears also

The migrant crisis is Italy is a fallout of hideous deeds committed in Libya

It is a case of greedy leaders destabilising poorer countries for their gain

The fallout is an unprecedented wave of immigration and Italy is in it's centre

Their options now are to double down on the numerous militias that control the waves of migrants crossing the Mediterranean

This is by cash or favours and has so far worked, as crossings has dropped by 85%

Think again next time you are toppling a 3rd world Country

Here's the fact of your matter:

- You seem too honest too be involved, else as official translator they should be reporting every night to you with a percentage of the loot

- You obviously can't or won't rat on the drivers extra-curricula activities

- The women and midnight revelry part is getting to you

- You are poorly paid

You have two options - involve or disengage

The jealousy and envy will continue building except your financial situation improves or the drivers stop and everybody returns to normal - which I don't see happening

So ultimately, your options again, are - involve or disengage

What will I do?

I'll involve myself with the Chinese by asking to be involved in the purchase of materials from X price upwards

Considering you are the bridge between both, you really should be the one dictating the happenings there

Recognise opportunity more

May 2018 change that for you

There's dignity in labour

I'll hire a young man like this any day anytime

His attitude is can-do, will-do

Blessings on him and his hustle

Suspicious

Very suspicious

To even have time to play football regularly suggests some degree of comfort not expected from people fleeing a crisis

Well done Rauf

Don't just be reactive, focus on strengthening security more and you'll be less on Twitter posting reactions

Anyways, good publicity nonetheless

Always angry, FFK

He shouldn't be

Those 7 Governors are only pledging allegiance to their power source, same way he would

Since he has the political will, power and wherewithal, he should channel his anger to empower young Nigerian leaders for the future

Start an FFK leadership initiative with an aim to grooming 10 young leaders annually - challenge them to impact 10 other lives etc.

Rather than ranting on Twitter which is the sole preserve of a certain Trump

I am not understanding this part: "that a militant leader in its custody, Oyawerikumor Peregbabofa, popularly known in the creeks of the Niger Delta as Karaowei, was later killed in an ambush

Did he escape and was later killed in an ambush or was this another extra-judicial hit?

I really don't care

Congrats to the productive collabo between the military and police in taking down vermin

The problem of the militants is "our oil mentality" - it's what gives them impetus, plus politicians

2019 coming up

Kidnappings are like warms ups for them

Reality is rented, and his rent was due

As a fellow car crash survivor (multiple times), the reality of an accident jolts you - just thinking how close you were to the bosom of death is shuddering

It also calls for reflection on life

Go out, give, live

May our 2018 be devoid of all this
