Mtmike:
I will not let my child take an haircut that doesnt conform with the school rules. But if peradventure out of oversight my child goes to school with an hairstyle that the school does not approve, the school will have to notify me and i will correct that immediately. However, if they want to be unfortunate and they take things into their hand to cut my child's hair they will see war. Physical, legal and even spiritual if need be. things like this are too sensitive

The way we defend and encourage indiscipline is what put us where we are as a country today
Total disregard for constituted authority
Rules are rules no matter whose ox is gored

Why in the fist place will you put your child into such a traumatizing situation as a responsible parent

This syndrome of NOTHING WILL HAPPEN has made us to throw caution to the winds and just allow anything to fly

That way the entire fabrics of discipline and regimentation of the society is entirely destroyed

Did he offend
Yes
Does the school have right to punish offenders
Yes
Do you have right over school rules
No
Does your child have right over school rules
No

So let the governing rules and regulations take it's cause biko

Biyaa
Wetin this one dey yarn
How on earth can you say you're richer than your lecturers

Okay
Let's analyse this
How many dependents do you currently have
What is your workload that you currently deliver on
How many publications have you released
How many institutions do you currently have recognising you

I can keep on going

Be there talking anyhow

I just dey wait to see you passing your prime in the movie industry

Hanks Anuku comes to mind
Later you'd be shouting up n down for help and assistance from your fans

We go dey here dey observe

Let's be clear
Ignorance of the law is no excuse

When engaging in any profession in Nigeria let's all try and study the laws guiding such businesses and abide by those laws cos when the law comes for us it will be blind and not be moved by emotional blackmail or excuses if ignorance

Same way the lady frying akara on a roadside in Lagos broke the law on health safety and people were all out shouting
The law is the law
Period
Register your drone and enjoy the seamless wide expanse of the Nigerian skies
But when you fail to comply and the compliance authority comes after you
No body should call it witch hunting or political sabotage
We all like to act using our emotions in this country and tkll we outgrown our emotions and start working by the laws we never go far
Yet these same emotional ladened humans cross to foreign lands and are simply okay obeying their laws and not complain about anything the laws require

*Xenophobic protests/attacks in South Africa* — mainly targeting foreign nationals, especially from other African countries — have had real economic and reputational costs.

Here’s the breakdown:

*1. Economic Consequences* 💰

*A. Damage to Local Businesses & Investment*
1. *Looting + destruction of shops*: Many foreign-owned spaza shops, tuckshops, and salons get torched or looted during unrest. That wipes out livelihoods and small-business capital.
2. *Supply chain disruption*: When areas like Gauteng townships shut down, deliveries stop, workers can’t get to work, and local markets lose income for days.
3. *Investor confidence drops*: Foreign investors watch political/social risk closely. Recurring xenophobic violence signals instability. The 2019 attacks saw several countries, including Nigeria and Zambia, recall diplomats and threaten boycotts of SA goods.

*B. Trade & Regional Relations Hit*
1. *AfCFTA + SADC tensions*: SA is the biggest economy in Africa and a key driver of the African Continental Free Trade Area. Xenophobia undermines SA’s leadership role. Countries like Nigeria, Malawi, Zimbabwe have protested and boycotted SA brands/products.
2. *Retaliatory action*: After 2019 attacks, Nigeria’s MTN, Shoprite, and Multichoice stores were vandalized in Lagos. DSTV subscriptions and Shoprite footfall dropped temporarily.

*C. Tourism Impact*
1. *Travel warnings*: Countries including the US, UK, and Nigeria have issued advisories to citizens in SA during flare-ups.
2. *Event cancellations*: Conferences, sports, and cultural events lose hosting opportunities when SA is seen as “unsafe for foreigners.” Tourism contributes ∼7% of SA’s GDP, so any dip matters.

*D. Labour & Skills Costs*
1. *Brain drain*: Skilled migrants — doctors, engineers, entrepreneurs — leave or avoid SA. That worsens SA’s own skills shortages.
2. *Informal economy losses*: Foreign nationals run many spaza shops and services that keep township economies alive. When they leave, prices often rise and access falls.

*2. Global Perception Consequences* 🌍

*A. “Rainbow Nation” Brand Damage*
SA markets itself as Africa’s democratic, inclusive hub. Xenophobic violence contradicts that image. Media coverage often uses headlines like “Africa’s most industrialized nation attacks Africans,” which sticks internationally.

*B. Diplomatic Fallout*
1. *AU + UN criticism*: The African Union and UN Human Rights Office have repeatedly condemned the attacks.
2. *Strained bilateral ties*: Nigeria, Ghana, Zimbabwe, and others have summoned SA ambassadors. It complicates cooperation on security, trade, and migration.

*C. Soft Power Loss*
1. *Cultural + business boycotts*: #BoycottSouthAfrica trended on X after 2015 and 2019 waves. Artists, influencers, and consumers in other African countries pulled back.
2. *Reputation for xenophobia*: SA is often singled out in global reports as the country where “Afrophobia” is most visible, even though migrants face issues across the continent.

*D. Impact on Foreign Direct Investment [FDI]*
Ratings agencies and investors factor “social cohesion risk” into SA. Persistent unrest makes SA look riskier than peers like Kenya or Morocco, raising borrowing costs.
The economic damage is both direct — destroyed shops, lost trade — and indirect — a weaker SA brand in Africa, which is SA’s largest export market.

What I don't seems to understand in this Saneo Olu Lagos is : does it have to require a governor order for the people to carry out their civic responsibility??
This one shock me o
So till we shout scream call out and complain before the govt orders are given?

Instead of heads to roll we are here reading long narratives and expecting tax payers to keep shouting out but they will tax you even before your pay settles in your account

How I wish the speed of taxing is applied in all other services that are to be rendered across Lagos

Lagos in indeed working just like the molue n danfo that you need to scream before driver will buy or pour fuel after collection of your fares

Before you crucify the CEO
Ask yourself this simple question
How many young Nigerians are ready to work?
Also what certification do you have to take up those required openings?
Finally what's the pay for the respective jobs that are open?
Once we get these right we would be putting right cubes in right holes and not otherwise
Let's not bring emotions to this
If you're qualified apply and work
Don't follow the unqualified to accuse someone whom may be your destiny helper

What a useless culture that doesn't protect the woman
Why threaten her with exit from the family
Afterwards she is not legally bound to the family again as what joined her to their family has died
Sincerely that MIL will not accept this if it were her own very daughter in this precarious situation cos I know she would rather use everything in her as a woman and mother to protect her daughter from such cultural nonsense
The lady is free to remarry if she so chooses n take her kids with her cos if this is what they are doing by threatening her to cforce to accepting such nonsense
She better leave that family fast nnstsy away from them all

Wrong shadow directions from gate, the man and the dog
Wind direction for tree branches different for smoke from chimney

AI generations can not relate in any way

That was our netflix and Amazon prime or YouTube then

THE ADC LEGAL CONUNDRUM

NAFIU – In Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1819/2025 before the Federal High Court of Nigeria, I urge Your Lordship, by way of an ex parte application, to restrain the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from recognizing the David Mark–led faction as the party leadership, as I am the Acting National Chairman of the party.

TRIAL COURT – No, I cannot grant your ex parte application. The relief sought is not one that ought to be granted without hearing the other side. Put the respondents on notice for a proper hearing of the matter in line with the principles of fair hearing and audi alteram partem.

DAVID MARK – I am filing an interlocutory appeal at the Court of Appeal of Nigeria. Why should the trial court even entertain Nafiu? Does it not know it lacks jurisdiction over internal party leadership disputes?

COURT OF APPEAL – This appeal is unmeritorious and constitutes an abuse of court process. Return to the trial court and respond to the substantive suit to ensure the expeditious administration of justice. Accordingly, I order an accelerated hearing of the case and direct parties to maintain the status quo ante bellum pending the determination of the substantive suit. Furthermore, for filing this frivolous interlocutory appeal, you are hereby fined the sum of ₦2,000,000 in costs.

INEC – I don’t want problem. In compliance with the ruling of the appellate court directing maintenance of the status quo ante bellum, we shall not recognise any factional leadership of the ADC pending the determination of the substantive matter at the trial court. Consequently, we have removed the David Mark–led executive from our official portal.

DAVID MARK – No way. I am proceeding on further appeal to the Supreme Court of Nigeria.

SUPREME COURT – This matter is still pending before the trial court. The Court of Appeal lacked jurisdiction to grant a preservative order of status quo ante bellum in respect of a matter yet to be determined at first instance. Accordingly, the said order is hereby set aside. As the apex court, I direct that this matter be remitted to the Federal High Court for expeditious hearing and determination of the substantive issues.

LEGAL IMPLICATION
The David Mark–led leadership may be falling into a red herring tactic employed by the opposing faction, designed to dissipate time and potentially run foul of statutory timelines governing party activities preceding primary elections.

In all of this, the leadership dispute remains in the cloud. The settled legal position is that the substantive rights and obligations of the parties can only be conclusively determined by the Federal High Court upon a full trial on the merits.

Regrettably, David Mark’s fishing expedition to the appellate court amounts to a procedural misstep. It is legally questionable, given that the trial court had not made any final or appealable decision against him at the time of filing the interlocutory appeal, thereby raising serious concerns as to its competence and necessity.

However, to avoid leaving party members in a state of uncertainty and the party itself in disarray, it must be emphasized that, in the absence of any subsisting order nullifying his position, David Mark arguably remains Chairman de facto, though his position is under judicial scrutiny as it stands.

I have also read opinions accusing the Supreme Court of bias for not determining the matter conclusively and instead remitting it to the trial court. Such arguments are largely academic and, with respect, reflective of a misunderstanding of judicial hierarchy and procedure. The trial court has not yet adjudicated on the matter and is therefore not functus officio. The Supreme Court cannot, under any known principle of law, assume original jurisdiction over a matter properly instituted before a lower court, except as constitutionally provided.

The pressing concern for members of the ADC, however, is this: can the Federal High Court hear and determine the substantive matter within the legally prescribed timeframe before party primaries commence?

I conclude this analysis with a Japanese Proverb: If you get on the wrong train, get off at the nearest station—the longer you stay on, the more expensive the return trip will be.

Dogs are wild animals o
Especially the guard dogs
Heard of a story last Xmas season that some people traveled and left the dogs in their cage unrestrained but been fed once every 2 days
Na so some burglars enter house at night
The dogs allowed them break in before attacking the 3 guys
The guys kept jumping on tables n chairs but the dogs kept attacking
One guy eventually climbed the 7 foot refrigerator and stayed there but unfortunately the dogs killed the remaining 2 guys.
This guy on the fridge stayed there till day break shouting but no body dared come to help
He used his phone to call police after the second day.
Even police tell am to stay put till the owner of the house is contacted
Guy man eventually spent 3 days on top of fridge when the dog feeder n police came to both rescue n arrest him
The guy said he prefers to be in police custody that to be eaten by those dogs having seen what hey did to his colleagues

Dogs are wild animals waiting to unleash the dragon in them 😃😃😃
