No peace for the wicked

Shameless people

Is your democracy in Nigeria better than them?

If security forces don't inadvertently drop bomb on hapless citizens, they shoot them dead because of N100.

Shameless country that is known for the worst crimes on earth against her own citizens but go about advising others about democracy and good governance.
Apply the advise on your rotten country.

600 years is waiting for all these crooks

Very timely.

With the alarming rate of divorce and murder in the bedroom, this might just save some marriages that are at the brink of collapse....for the marriages that truly want to be saved though.

A bitter woman, and a wife beater cannot be saved even by Titanic

Nice one Dickson

Faller:
wetin do ajangbadi na... no cast my area ooo

My comment is not meant to mock anybody or any region.
I was only trying to raise the point that celebrating buildings is not a metric for standard of living.

Rather than celebrate V. I, Ikoyi, Lekki, Marina and environs, when more than half of the population of Lagos live in filth and squalor, we should bring the plight of those in Ikorodu, Mushin, Olodi Apapa, Makoko, Ebute Metta, Agboyi-Odo etc to the front burner for all concerned Nigerians to see the wickedness of our leaders despite the abundance of wealth.

Sorry for calling out your hood.
I have friends there, and I personally love the sound of that name.

Adios

Whoever that insulted my person and my family for airing my opinion in a public forum (with that Magicians moniker) is a walking mad man that is not fit to live among civilised human beings.

I truly regret that moment I decided to comment on this forum today.

themaestro08:
So on point man! Switzerland - one of the most if not the most developed country in the world has not up to five skyscrapers but its quality of life unparalleled to any other country.

Exactly.

Show us Ajangbadi jare'

Most Nigerians are little minded.
We celebrate buildings that don't translate to better living condition.

Building is never a metric for standard of living, especially in this century.
Rather than rejoice over brick and mortar, let us demand governance from the crooks that has held the country hostage.

You will never see people that live in Las Vegas, Hong Kong, Tokyo etc snap buildings to celebrate non-existent national pride

Everybody with wetin dey make them happy.
As for me and my household, Buhari and his government makes me angry....

Good luck to the singer

Mad government with mad employees

President Mustapha

Happy birthday

Give them Yoruba stew

Omooba77:
Did Sanwoolu listened when BRT service was increased by his government?

He did not listen because most of the people affected are commoners that lack the capacity to affect or influence government action..

Same cannot be said for the 5% increment.

Ordinary people don't matter to Nigerian politicians not until elections.
Surprisingly, despite all the disdain and wickedness, we still vote to elect same people that are treating us badly today

GamalNasser:
You believe he made such a move without carrying the Governor and Tinubu along ? Well he can neglect the Governor but Tinub must be carried along

I don't believe, that is why I said this suspension might be to save face

I feel for him. Not a good time to lose a job.

So Bamidele made a daring move of imposing 5% on digital platforms without carrying the state government along? It is hard to believe...
This suspension may just be done to save face from the backlash.

However, it is a sign of accountability. When we complain, our leaders should be able to listen and act accordingly.

Nice one Sanwoolu

anonimi:
What office were they holding when they have been using their visible platforms to speak on public matters of interest to them before now

Mr, you seem not to get the point. At this time, we don't just need people to talk for the sake of political correction.
Honest and sensible Nigerians are more interested in saving the life of that young man, and the little we can do as individuals is to call out those that are entrusted with the power to save his life.

At this point, Atiku and Suleiman are not any of such people. The more time we waste on them, the closer the young gets to his grave.

The young man is condemned in apparent betrayal of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and there are people that swore to defend that constitution, for which they collect salaries.
Call them out and stop beating round the Bush

anonimi:
If they are unelected officials, why are they on the front page of nairaland?
Why are 2.5 million nairalanders supposed to be interested in what they say about the football teams of our colonial masters who destroyed (& continue to destroy) our country and continent?
Now guess who is truly blind & lost

Do you really need someone to tell or teach you that they are unelected officials? Really??

Why they are on front page? You should direct that question to the owner of this forum and his moderators...or better still ask the 2.5 million people why they are interested in the football teams they speak of.

You're just revving the engine of a vehicle that has no wheels.

Direct your anger, if you have any, to those that swore to protect us with the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to save the condemned, because the young man does not have the luxury of time.

Which office is Apostle Suleiman holding? Or Atiku?

I urge you strongly to ponder on your last sentence because you seem to be looking for direction with your comment

Wasky101:
For your mind you don make sense,
The guy was only asking for their opinion and not for them to do anything,
How can they possibly do anything when not in power, this PDP guys are a shame and embarrassment to opposition.
Apc in 4yrs played opposition so well it earned them a ticket to the chocolate factory.

@bold,

"If a hyena claims to have a cure for diarrhoea, then she should use it on herself" thus says a Nigerian proverb.

I want to believe your above submission is not what the lead post by the other commentator meant. However, if it does, then I am compelled to ask; what is the benefit of seeking for an opinion that you know will not amount to anything?
What is the sense in calling out those that does not have the means to save the young man that is doomed to die in the hands of proven criminals?
Is it not more sensible that the energy used in seeking for irrelevant opinions (in your own words) be directed to those that can use state apparatus to save the wrongly condemned man?

The more time used in seeking for irrelevant opinion just for the sake of political correction edge the young man closer to his grave.
As a sensible man that you claim to be, don't you think that in itself is a senseless thing to do?

Your comment betrayed you as another blind party faithful that is holding up a finger to know where the breeze is blowing from.
Life and death is not a party issue. It is humanity that is being questioned here....

For the sake of emphasis, let me reiterate again. Direct the attention and energy to those that swore to defend the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Seeking mere opinion from irrelevant individuals will not save the condemned, and moreso, he does not have the luxury of time

Venusman:
Wow! So they got voice to taLk about this but keep mute on the blasphemy case. God's seeing your efforts as leaders.

Direct it to your president.

We should stop running after the wrong people.

Your president/vice, governors/Minister of Justice are all on oath to defend the constitution of the federal Republic of Nigeria.

A young man is about to face the gallows under apparent betrayal of our constitution, and you are here running after unelected officials that did not swear any oath.

We are truly blind and lost in this country

Femi is known by many to be a gas bag.

Many Nigerians that condemn government do so solely because they are not the ones in the saddle, when the table turns, they begin to sing a different song.
They are never genuine with their intentions.

Buhari, Femi, are all problems in this country

Another one

Wahala

Boko Haram will not pass these ones by...cowards

Ogun again

These people should be given a different country so they can practice their rituals among themselves.

Why they behave so differently from Yorubas in Lagos despite the proximity is a wonder

Sometime ago in Lagos Nigeria, a young man (John) in his early thirties got fed up with his existential reality....because general poverty, frustration and rejection were the key drivers of his every day life.
For the above reasons, killing himself (suicide) became attracted to him as would a swarm of bees would gather round a honeycomb.

Again, there is a young man (Femi), who for over a year had a running battle with his newly married wife over certain disagreements centered around infidelity.
Overtime, they both agreed for a divorce, but the woman (Sarah) wanted more than what she could possibly get.

So on this faithful day, the frustrated young man having given thoughts to taking his own life decided to walk up a 25 storeys building in the middle of the city, very much determined to jump down to put an end to his misery.

Coincidentally, the couple fighting themselves over infidelity and divorce also found themselves in that same location in one of the opposite buildings on that faithful day.
While having a verbal exchange of bitter words, a melee ensued between them.

Unfortunately for the couple and the young man attempting to commit suicide, something happened that divided opinions till this day on the big question; who really killed the man?

The young man (John) jumped off the 25 storey building, but while he was still in flight yet to reach ground zero, his head was struck by a stray bullet before he could touch the ground. Obviously, he is dead.

Incidentally, the stray bullet was confirmed to have been fired from the Beretta pistol of the couples fighting themselves albeit inadvertently.
Sarah fired the gun in self defence while Femi was trying to strangle her to death....

Now, the question on everyone's lips is:

Who killed the man?

Did John kill himself or he died in the hands of the shooter?
If the answer is the latter, can the shooter be charged with manslaughter over a suicidal man that was already doomed to die?

Secondly, What if John had died already midway after taking that jump long before the bullet struck him?
Even if not so, the young man could have died after hitting the ground without anyone shooting at him....

In law, it is irrational to believe John would die anyway after jumping even without the bullet.
At the same time, it beats all known parameters of common sense to believe the young man could have survived after jumping to the ground.

*The big question is 'who really killed John?*



For some, It is morally wrong to sentence another man to death or life imprisonment over the death of a man that was already doomed to die.

On the other hand, some believe there would be no justice for John if the couples are not punished for putting a bullet in his head.

Where do you belong in the divide?

Keep the opinions coming.
