At least in Wike and Tinubu’s type of Democracy, local government elections are conducted with different parties winning election. In Peter Obi’s democracy, local government election are only conducted two months to the end of an 8 years tenure with only one party winning all contested positions.


Should we also talk about how Atiku led the shameless rigging of the 2003 general election? Somethings, I just wish I have the power to move the comments of some of you obidients to the jokes section because that’s where they honestly belong.


You all think we are some kids who don’t know the antecedents of all the rogue politicians you’re idolizing, right? You think Nigerians are some dumb people who can’t read in between the lines?

at the recent LGA election in rivers state. There was only one candidate for each LGA. Most LGA nobody came out to vote. Unlike the previous election organised by Sims.

JimRohn:
You clearly have a habit of writing without thinking. First, you twist history and now you contradict yourself mid-sentence. You admit Libya had no ground invasion, only airstrikes and armed rebels — exactly my point. Libya collapsed precisely because it was weak, disarmed, and had no deterrent. The U.S. could bomb freely because Gaddafi handed over his nuclear program years earlier. Had Libya been nuclear-armed, NATO would never have dared fly those planes, let alone arm rebels. Weakness invites predation.

Second, your comparison of Iran to Libya is ridiculous. Libya had no regional alliances, no deterrence, and no long-range strike capability. Iran has all three. That’s why, for over 40 years, the U.S. and Israel have barked loudly but stopped short of invasion. They know the cost. They can sneak in bombers, fire missiles, or hack systems — but they won’t roll in tanks because Tehran won’t collapse like Tripoli.

Your examples of India–Pakistan and Russia–Ukraine are also laughable. Pakistan still exists. Its nukes kept India from full-scale war. Russia still exists. NATO hasn’t invaded Russia directly because of its nuclear arsenal. Your own examples prove deterrence works. If nukes were irrelevant, Pakistan would be occupied, and NATO would already be in Moscow. But they’re not.

And spare me the Western propaganda about “Iran’s weapons falling into wrong hands.” The U.S. has armed Israel with hundreds of nukes outside the NPT, yet lectures others on proliferation. America literally left Afghanistan with $7 billion worth of weapons in Taliban hands — but suddenly Iran is the great danger? Hypocrisy doesn’t become truth just because you parrot it.

You mock resistance because you’re too busy glorifying servitude. But facts don’t lie: Libya disarmed and got destroyed. Iraq was weak and got invaded. Iran resisted, armed itself, built alliances, and remains standing. That’s not theory — that’s history slapping you in the face.

So stop embarrassing yourself with contradictions. The difference between a nation that kneels and one that stands isn’t in your wishful thinking — it’s written in the rubble of Baghdad and Tripoli, and in the unbroken skyline of Tehran.

ukraine invaded kursk in russia, Israel airplanes operated in iran for days. Pakistan and india both nuclear armed fought each other. Nuclear armed doesnt mean they wont attack you.

All terrorist fighting against Israel are deadmen walking. They are very much aware.

#RiversDecides: APC leads in Tai LGA

APC: 70, 080
PDP: 1,245 votes
PRP: 532 votes
Total valid votes: 72,770 votes
Rejected votes: 326 votes
Total votes: 73,096

so PDP and APC have two candidates in Tai...very funny. We all know the truth.

Omo wetin happen to emmanuel dennis. He was a fine player at watford. Reason i respect Ronaldo so much..at the age of 40 man still shinning and raking in more money than any other player in the world.

The political structure na access to more money in the LGA allocation. I watched a 1983 BBC documentary hosted by Onyeka Onwenu about how Nigerians are squandering wealth....In that documentary i knew that this country na we dey spoil am by ourselves by praising and hailing corrupt leaders since 1970s.

How did he know about the Geh Geh university ?

JimRohn:
Stop fooling yourself. Everything I post here is my own reasoning — I don’t need a bot to think for me. When your arguments collapse under the weight of facts, the only defense you can muster is “copy and paste from AI.” That’s not only lazy, it’s cowardly. If my points sound too precise and logical for you to handle, maybe the problem isn’t me — it’s your shallow grasp of history.

And let’s be clear: comparing U.S./Israeli drone strikes or border skirmishes to a full-scale invasion is laughable. An “invasion” is when armies march in, topple governments, and occupy land — like Iraq, Afghanistan, or Libya. Iran is still standing, still governed by Iranians, and still projecting power across the region. If those little pinprick raids were enough to bring Iran down, it would have collapsed decades ago. Yet here we are, and Iran remains — while Iraq and Libya are smoking ruins.

So stop clutching at straws. The very fact that the U.S. and Israel limit themselves to surgical strikes instead of boots on the ground proves my point: they know Iran will make them bleed if they try a real invasion. That is deterrence in action, whether you like it or not.

You can keep mocking resistance while polishing the chains of servitude, but don’t project your slave mentality onto others. Some nations crawl to survive, others stand to endure — Iran chose the latter. And history will always honor those who stood.

you just dey write plenty...You gave Libya as an example of a weak nation. Yet there was no U.S ground invasion in libya mostly air support and arms supply to rebel groups in libya. Which was almost similar situation in Iran, the u.s sent B-2 Bombers into Iran and they will do so again even if iran should possess a nuclear warhead. Indian attacked pakistan a nuclear armed nation and Ukraine is doing same against all mighty Russia.
My point is that being nuclear-armed isn't enough to deter a nation like the U.S. from attacking Iran. Their main concern is that if Iran acquires a nuclear weapon, it could fall into the wrong hands such as Hezbollah or the Houthis. The U.S and west sometimes supplies weapons to rebel groups, but these are mostly firearms and light explosives not weapons of mass destruction. The same can't be said for Iran, as evidenced by the hypersonic missiles reportedly in the hands of the Houthi

JimRohn:
Your reply only proves how shallow your grasp of history is. Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait in 1990 was wrong — but does one crime justify another tenfold greater? The U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003 had nothing to do with Kuwait; it was built on lies about “weapons of mass destruction” and left over a million Iraqis dead. Don’t twist timelines to excuse Western butchery.

You say “no U.S. base in Oman” as if that is proof of independence. Oman is a client state tied by Western trade, military cooperation, and British officers embedded in its defense forces. Just because you don’t see an aircraft carrier parked in Muscat doesn’t mean Oman is free from Western strings.

And your statement that “U.S. will still attack Iran if they want to” exposes the very defeatist slave mentality I’ve been pointing out. You think power means doing whatever you like with no resistance. But reality shows the opposite: the U.S. invaded Iraq, Libya, and Afghanistan because they were weak. They have not dared invade Iran in 40+ years because they know Iran will hit back and make them bleed. That is deterrence. That is exactly why nuclear capability matters — it raises the cost of aggression beyond what even a superpower is willing to pay.

So keep glorifying slavery as “peace.” Real nations carve dignity from resistance, not from licking boots. Oman may survive quietly on its knees — Iran survives loudly on its feet. And history has always honored those who stood, not those who crawled.

you just go copy and paste from A.l...I Never stated that the iraq invasion of Kuwait was the reason the Bush administration had to invade Iraq.
If the U.S. and NATO's actions in Libya are considered an invasion, then recent U.S./Israeli operations in your almight Iran entering its airspace and striking ground targetscould similarly be viewed as an Invasion.

My cousins checked the SEC website and discovered that their late father had shares in about six major Nigerian companies, purchased between 2001 and 2005. So far, they've only been able to access one of them which, according to them, is currently valued at around ₦500 million

JimRohn:
Your response is shallow and riddled with contradictions. You mention Saudi Arabia and Qatar as “peaceful,” yet conveniently ignore the obvious: they are under the protective shadow of the very powers that plunder the Middle East. Their survival is not due to wisdom or strength, but servitude — they rent out their sovereignty to Washington and London, hosting U.S. bases while paying with oil money. That is not peace; that is subjugation.

As for calling Iran a “terrorist nation,” that is nothing but parroting Western propaganda. Iran has been the single most consistent force resisting Zionist occupation and U.S. imperialism in the region. If defending one’s sovereignty, supporting oppressed Palestinians, and refusing to bow to colonial masters is “terrorism,” then what do you call the U.S. invasion of Iraq that killed over a million people? Or Israel’s daily massacre of civilians in Gaza? Or NATO’s destruction of Libya?

The difference is simple: Saudi Arabia and Qatar chose slavery to survive, while Iran chooses dignity to lead. And history will always honor those who stood with dignity, not those who sold themselves for temporary comfort.

Iraq started the invasion game by invading Kuwait first..There is no U S base in Oman and yet the country is relatively peaceful. With or without a nuclear warhead U.S will still attack Iran if they want to..

Election wey na only one chairmanship candidate for each LGA. Atleast the Election conducted by Sims I saw the posters of other parties.

Lol even yahoo boys wey get $1m pass that figure for Nigeria alone. Dey play.

thankGod you mention "Yahoo boy"...illegal money cant be recognized

If people watched post-colonial African history videos about rebel leaders and separatist groups like this gentle yahoo faction, they'd see a troubling pattern, many of these figures become consumed by violence and power. They often begin by oppressing their own communities and committing acts of brutality without remorse .

MadamExcellency:
Patience Jonathan said they are not going to that house again. Goodluck don't have the gut to oppose her even if he wants. Goodluck wasn't meant for politics until Patience pulled him to it and since she isn't interested again. That's the final answer.

The mistake pro-Jonathan politicians are making is pressuring Goodluck instead of the wife.

patience pulled him to become a deputy governor...Una dey cap oh.

Why she cover face...Very funny. She fine reach the princess wey French montana marry?

If na Nigeria na working country. Police/Military Don suppose to enter okigwe by now. But ofcos is Nigeria where Turji is also flexing and warning communities to pay levy or die. What a country.

Naija no be serious country. This Gentle suppose don dey top 3 most wanted men in Nigeria. Police don suppose enter that Okigwe go find am Asap.

My roommate was arguing that in her secondary school a teacher ran mad after reading the book at night. Which I doubt

I have been hearing about this book for some years but can't find it online.

I know I'm a little curious but something tells me it's one of those fake books that are used to scare people.
Has anyone seen such a book if it actually exist

the book is 100% real. I have read the online version. Back in my secondary school, A senior read the book and he kept having scary nightmares and would scream at night. Later, we found out he had taken a book called The Seventh Book of Moses from his father's library. I’m not sure it was the full version.

The book is full of spells and rituals used to call on both good and bad Angels. Just reading it might not be dangerous, but doing the rituals can be risky. Many spiritualists today still use those rituals from the book.

The Dr na kwack...How can you abort a 6months old baby and dont expect life threatening complications

Funny election..with only one candidate poster for each LGA. Where there is PDP..there is only one PDP candidate. where there is APC only one APC candidate. No opposition. And we all know who controls both parties in Rivers state.

You mentioned persons...motorcade contained more than 20 cars.

So Dino dey earn 6.5m per year money wey no reach the cost of rolls royce engine.

Omo she born 6kids with her previous husband..yet another man still took her in as a 3rd wife.

Seyi tinubu wont like this.. this guy no know who him go pick as him proposed father na BAT.

Religion the biggest scam on earth..even Monks dey collect.

Burna did not buy that ferrari for N1.5bn..The ferrari Testarossa value is around $130k. And is a nigeria used ferrari.

Jonathan no dey run.
