Maybe you are from a region in Nigeria that is known for drugs. We are all praying for President Tinubu to win with a landslide in 2027 because we really need this Nelfund to continue. God bless those who initiated Nelfund,abundantly.
SixSeven: When your child asks you about your history, tell them the truth. Tell them your story. If a regular graduate has to present perfect, unblemished paperwork to get a job, it is completely natural to demand the exact same transparency from a public leader. What you are doing is what is called intellectual dishonesty.
I am not going to waste my time arguing about this issue. Everyone knows what they are doing. What I know is that the truth is very patient. 100 years of lies cannot erase it.
an action instituted by the applicant/appellant/cross-respondent, the applicant by way of originating summons prayed the Federal High Court for the following reliefs.
(i) A declaration that defendants have the Statutory Authority.by virtue of the Police Act to prevent, detect and investigate crime and to investigate criminal allegations in any state of the Federation
(ii) A declaration that no Governor of any State in Nigeria and indeed any other Public Officer(s) enjoy any immunity under the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria and other relevant Laws in force in Nigeria from investigating into any criminal allegation
and
(iii) An order of mandamus compelling the respondents to investigate the applicant's complaint of false statement on oath and false declarations made by Mr. Bola Ahmed Tinubu as contained in Independent National Electoral Commission Form FO01 and affidav spect by Mr. Bo nubu (now Governor of Lagos State). (iv) And for such further order(s) that the honourable court deem f tances
Attached to the verifying affidavit in support of the summons were photocopies of INEC Form CF 001, filed by Mr. Bola Tinubu and affidavit titled "Affidavit in support of lost certificates sworn to by Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Today's Newspaper captioned "Tinubu in fraud sensation." The said affidavit of the applicant alleged amongst others that the affidavit in respect of lost certificate to by Mr. Bola d Tinubu contained false statement and false declaration made under oath in that;
(i) the deponent and declarant, Mr Bola Ahmed Tinubu (now Governor of Lagos State) did not attend Government College, Ibadan between 1965 and 1968 as claimed
(ii) Mr. Bola Ahmed Tinubu did not attend the University of Chicago between 1972 and 1976 as claimed
(iii) Mr. Bola Ahmed Tinubu did not obtain a B.Sc. degree in Economics from the University of Chicago as claimed
Reacting to the summons, the Respondents filed a counter affidavit and preliminary objection to the effect that, the honourable trial court lacked jurisdiction to hear the application since the applicant lacked locus standi. Secondly, that the application is contrary to S.380 (1) (a) (b) (c) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria which relates to the Constitutional Immunity of the Governor from the relief sought by the applicant.
The learned trial Judge in his ruling upheld the preliminary objection of the defendants and dismissed the originating summons. The trial court held that to order the Defendants to investigate the allegation of crime against Mr. Ahmed Bola Tinubu will necessarily involve the taking of evidence from the Governor, taking of oath which means that he would be arrested and cautioned. Such investigation will offend against S.308 (1) (a) (b) (c) of the constitution. Dissatisfied the applicant appealed to the Court of Appeal while the defendants cross-appealed. The contention of the Appellant is that the investigation was not prohibited by S.308 of the Constitution but only a legal proceedings - are prohibited.
In their cross-appeal the Respondent argued that exhibits GF1, GF2 and GF3 being public documents were inadmissible not having been certified as true copies pursuant to S.97 of the Evidence Act. The cross-respondent (Appellant) filed a notice of preliminary objection to the cross-appellants' issues for determination alleging that issue, did not flow from the grounds of appeal and that issue 2 was not based on the ruling delivered by the learned trial Judge. The Court of Appeal overruled the preliminary objection on the ground that the Cross-appellants' issues were properly raised. Delivering judgement on the entire appeal.
All this epistle for nothing. CSU has already confirmed in court with serious scrutiny that Tinubu was their student,so all this is just academics. The story was that it was not Tinubu that filled the form and the person goofed in filling in some incorrect information.
This is what Tinubu used in getting into CSU according to court and CSU documents...
President Bola Tinubu used a 1970 Cambridge University General Certificate of Education (GCE) Ordinary Level (O/L) certificate containing three science subjects (physics, chemistry, and biology) to gain admission into Southwest College (Richard J. Daley College), from where he later transferred to Chicago State University (CSU).
Key Details from Court and University Records... The O-Level Result: Court documents show the certificate (serial number S028705) from the November/December 1970 Cambridge examination had only three science subjects, without traditional core subjects like English or Mathematics.
Okay,this is what he used and USA court and the world saw it except you.

phemray: Obi has not been cleared as the school refused to send the copies of the olevel and GCE used. This is Nigeria unlike US, UNN can hide anything because Obi is a presidential candidate. They confirmed the certificate of BSC and released it to public, but yet to release the GCE they claimed he used to combine results. Why is it difficult to release it?
Mr Obi has been parading only one WAEC which has 3 credits because there is no other. The registrar lied because she and UNN have been bought.
Everybody saw how Tinubu was shaken from head to toe in USA court and how he came out clean. We even saw he was very brilliant and came out with first class in Accounting
Mr Obi too should go and produce his unseen or non existing Nov/Dec WAEC result that the registrar lied that he used.
WhereMyLoud: After this your long Epistle Mr Apostle, tell me one thing he actually said that is not true?
1. Tinubu blocking the release? 2. The Judge was privy to private viewing of the files? 3. He was offer $3m ? 4 Michael worked under Tinubu?
TELL ME WHICH IS WRONG IS ALL THESE.
IDIOTIC RHETORIC FROM CLOWNS
No public or official evidence shows that Michael H. Bonner worked as a consultant or adviser for the Nigerian government under President Bola Tinubu after retiring from the U.S. government. Do you or Mr Ikemefuna have one?
Some zombies will be zombies forever. For 33 good years,baba Obasanjo,Jonathan,all oppositions in Lagos,Nigeria,in diaspora have been on this useless drug this,drug that but have not been able to bring out a single,just one single proof that President Tinubu dealt in drug in USA except a civil forfeiture which the FBI has clarified and even said Tinubu has no criminal record,case and was never convicted of any crime. Another scammer,Ikemefuna (paid $1.2m by Atiku) is still on the same thing this 2026 but all what he has done is gaslighting everybody with one idiotic story or the other. When are we going to get to see the purported record of President Tinubu? All I see is foolishness and joblessness from the oppositions who seem very dumb to me. Why beat a dead horse for 33 years without result if not for stupidity.
BitCraftman: The oil crude belongs to one region out of six but the masses are the ones who fought the war to help all other region access it. God forbid that another war breaks out, will the elites go to the front? Never. Iran pays 1000 times less than oil producing Nigeria so dont blame Nigerian who feel entitled to cheap crude or its byproducts.
USA has oil than Nigeria yet oil...gasoline is more expensive now because of the war. It is even more expensive than what we buy here..
Zonefree: If Lagos state government implement this action, it means some communities in Osun, Ekiti, Ogun and Ondo will see strange faces this month.
True. There are some unkempt guys at Ketu bus stop,they are mostly Yoruba guys. They are all over Lagos but the problem is that they will still come back. The Igbos among them might not be so lucky. All Nigerian tribes have miscreants strewn all over Lagos.
Shaketable: I knew it would be an Igbo professor, if it were a Yoruba or Hausa he or she il only work on their language
Yoruba researchers and teams have developed keyboards that support both Hausa and Igbo languages.
Notable Examples.....
Kọlá Túbọsún and the YorubaName.com Team.... Led by Yoruba linguist and researcher Kọlá Túbọsún, the team behind YorubaName.com released a combined Igbo and Yoruba keyboard layout. It allows users to type tone marks for Yoruba and special dotted/nasal characters needed for Igbo (such as ị, ụ, and ñ) using standard.
We can also mention Adebunmi Adeniran (NAILANGS): A UK-based Nigerian researcher who designed the virtual NAILANGS keyboard to support multiple Nigerian languages, explicitly including Yoruba, Hausa, and Igbo, alongside others like Tiv and Idoma.
Yoruba keyboards and digital layouts have been developed by Yoruba researchers and technologists to make typing tone marks and sub-dotted letters (ẹ, ọ, ṣ) easier.
Nigerian scientist and cybernetician Tunde Adegbola, alongside researchers at the African Languages Technology Institute (Alt-I), developed a pioneering Yoruba keyboard system designed specifically for the language's tonal complexities. This innovation won the International Institute for Communication and Development.
Please how does this translates to the common man that can’t afford 3 square meal a day due to high cost of living with very poor salary/minimum wage! Let’s be realistic. Na because say e no dey pinch you na…
It is not only in Nigeria that firms exit or have problems,it happens globally. There are even major American companies and retail institutions that completely collapsed or liquidated their U.S. operations over recent decades,
Some notable names include.... Toys "R" Us.....Liquidated its U.S. stores in 2018 after filing for bankruptcy.
Blockbuster.... Shuttered most U.S. corporate video-rental stores by 2013.
Borders Group.....Closed all bookstore locations and liquidated in 2011.
Sports Authority.....Liquidated and closed all 460+ nationwide stores in 2016.
Bed Bath & Beyond...... Filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and closed remaining brick-and-mortar operations in 2023.
Several major international financial bodies and credit agencies have praised or upgraded Nigeria's economy following the reform policies introduced under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
International Monetary Fund (IMF):Praised bold steps to stabilize the economy.Lauded the removal of fuel subsidies and forex unification. Upgraded Nigeria's growth outlook projection.
World Bank:Hailed Nigeria as a global reference for credible economic reforms.
Moody's Ratings revised Nigeria's credit outlook to positive.Affirmed a B3 rating due to stronger external buffers.
Fitch Ratings:Upgraded Nigeria's credit rating to 'B'.
S&P Global Ratings:Upgraded Nigeria's sovereign credit rating. Noted improvements in the country's external position.
Dogalmighty17: Over the next few weeks or possibly even days, the price of crude in the international market is going to increase geometrically. This will have terrible ripple effects worldwide. All because of the alarming idiocy of Donald Trump.
While the US was focused on containing Iranian activity in the strait of Hormuz, the Iranians had their eyes on a more critical strait in the red sea. The strait of Bab El-Mandeb. This strait is very critical to all Saudi Arabian oil exports. And Iranian allies, the Houthis in Yemen, are possibly days away from capturing it.
If Bab El-Mandeb falls into the hands of the Houthis, Saudi Arabia can kiss crude oil exports goodbye. But that isn't enough. The Houthis have developed their own precision guided missiles that they can target vital assets in Saudi Arabia. Critical crude oil extraction facilities in Saudi Arabia have been shut down as a result.
In 2002, Saudi Arabia, the US and the UK engaged in a brutal bombing campaign against the Houthis and achieved nothing positive. Saudi Arabia even deployed foreign mercenaries, paying them 5000 dollars monthly to fight and yet the Houthis wiped out a good number of them. Saudi Arabia, the US and the UK, shamefully withdrew.
There are over 300,000 Houthi fighters. Men who welcome and actively search for death. Nothing will dissuade them from taking the strait of Bab El-Mandeb except the US puts boots on the ground. The Houthis already took a very critical port on the red sea today after brutal fighting against Yemeni government troops and Saudi backed mercenaries. Oil prices are inching up as a result.
Saudi Arabia cannot just watch its economic lifeline being cut off. It will be forced to act but air power alone won't be enough. Troops have to be on ground. Iran and its allies will take up their targeting of Saudi crude production assets a notch. This will do wonders for the international price of crude and of course the retail prices of petrol and diesel here in Nigeria.
Fuel prices here will increase more than they currently are here in Nigeria . President Tinubu will not be responsible for it. There is nothing he can do. So let's all brace up. The coming days and weeks will be very rough
Irony1: How many govs couldn't pay salary? How many were paying salaries? This that couldn't pay salaries were still stealing funds so that you analogy is flat.
Are you saying that they are not stealing "funds" again now and still able to pay salaries,some as high as #104,000? Most of us don't understand that the most viable way to get away from the abyss Nigeria has been in since 1960 is what President Tinubu has embarked on. He is just a bold and determined man to have had the insight to do this in first term. He would forever be remembered as the best President of Nigeria for the strong positive foundation he is building for Nigerians and Nigeria. Yes,no pain,no gain. Nigeria will be the greatest African nation before President Tinubu leaves in 2031. You can take that to the bank. .
Apart from high cost of living which is global, President Tinubu has performed more than any previous govts in health,infrastructures that drive growth,development and HDI;social welfare, education etc. Why will any sane Nigerian not vote for him.
Is it ghosts that voted for him?The North has the highest voters followed by SW. He should have told those ghosts to give him his result so as to have used it at the supreme court nah. A loser must always have a reason for his loss but this one is simply pathetic.
Some enemies of Nigeria will not be able to sleep tonight Seeing that President Tinubu is surely going to continue to build Nigeria for the better in 2027 upward is something that is too much for them to bear.
