Professor Maurice Iwu said more than this, Professor Yakubu said even more. Now this man has started, a sign of INEC miracles to come.

Here is a question, Kwakwanso aside. If a free and fair election is conducted today, without the interference of INEC, police, military, knife wielding thugs and ballot snatchers, DO YOU THINK TINUBU WILL BEAT OBI?

I am glad African teams are putting in a good fight. Those folks across the Atlantic usually don't take African football seriously. Now they are receiving it wotoporously from the ubiquitous underdogs.

If EyeNeck include this question, some politicians will be disqualified. Have you ever confided in a mad man or seek counsel from a lunatic?

All the South African businesses in Nigeria employed Nigerians. We should not reason and behave like the south Africans we criticise. Rather I want the government to come out boldly and put restrictions on Nigerians going to South Africa, in fact they should put a ban on Nigerians going there. You can't treat an American citizen this way and get away with it. Anyway this is Tinubu's government, it doesn't concern him. Trust me, this is where we missed Musa Yaradua, a humble but no nonsense President.

It is looking as though Nairaland is partisan and anti-Obi. How can one explain the quality of this post making front page in Nairaland.

Wow, let the grammar begin to roll. I am happy for him. His people dumped him because they could not understand his English.

Shushi. I still don't get the frenzi about it.

You are talking about sanctions. How many of them were arrested and prosecuted? So aiding and abating terrorism is not an offence serious enough to warrant arrest?

SixSeven:
They knew it but didn't want to release it.

This insecurity and terrorism has only lasted long because of the GOVERNMENT. When they are ready, the ragtags won't be having a field day acting like no one can stop them. Sunday Igboho or Gumi won't be in our news. We won't be having Tiktok videos of criminals or kidnapping

The Nigerian government did not publicly release the names of most terrorism sponsors during the eight-year presidency of Muhammadu Buhari (2015-2023), despite frequent claims that lists had been compiled.

In early 2022, Buhari's Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, stated that the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) had uncovered 96 financiers, 424 associates, and 123 companies backing Boko Haram and ISWAP, but the administration withheld the specific names citing ongoing intelligence operations.

The list of 15 entities (9 individuals and 6 Bureau De Change operators) was officially published in March 2024 by the Nigeria Sanctions Committee (NSC) under President Bola Tinubu's administration. In April 2026, the government expanded this campaign, announcing an updated list containing 48 individuals and groups (including figures like Simon Ekpa and IPOB), alongside concurrent terrorist financing designations by the United States.

Public skepticism toward Nigeria's list of 48 terrorism sponsors stems from a lack of transparent, verifiable data and the absence of high-profile political names. When the Nigeria Sanctions Committee released the list, they omitted critical identifying information such as photographs, genders, and the specific roles these individuals played within insurgent networks. Because many of the names are incredibly common in Nigeria, publishing them as plain text without context makes them indistinguishable from everyday citizens, creating a widespread belief that the list consists of fabricated or irrelevant names.

Furthermore, the public expected the unmasking of powerful political "masterminds"-such as corrupt elite officials or wealthy financiers-who have long been rumored to bankroll regional insecurity. Instead, the list is primarily populated by obscure, low-level financial couriers and regional Bureau De Change operators who are entirely unknown to the general population. Coming on the heels of secretive mass trials held behind closed doors, this focus on minor logistics operators rather than top-tier architects has led many Nigerians to believe the government is intentionally withholding the names of the true elites driving the crisis.

Long ago, UAE published names of individuals and organisations facilitating terrorism in Nigeria. What happened next? Nothing. As a country serious about fighting terrorism, we have to wait for countries to reveal the names of these individuals before we can act?

As in how? You lost your supreme, the next supreme leader was disfigured, and three levels of military commands were decapitated. Even your dear Al Jazeera said today that Iran suffered a huge devastating blow military and economic wise but politically, emerged stronger due to their leverage on the Strait of Hormuz. If that is a win by your standard, I can't help you.

You said sanction does not work, the last time I checked, 1 USD is equivalent to 1.4 Million Iranian rial. With your thousand Naira minimum wage, supposing you were in Iran now, you would be a billionaire.

franvincoop:
Sanctions again?
Who go tell USA say sanctions no dey work?
Sanctions dey work na for person wey dey dream to go USA.
Iran on sanction for 47 years has a GDP of 300 billion USD, Israel GDP is 700 Billion USD without sanctions.
If dem free Iran hand, Israel go hear the odor with their ears, so it's better then make peace through USA solve Palestine matter cuz na the real problem be that cuz once Palestine issue dey resolved, if anybody dare attack Israel even me for here Christian Palestine supporter dey go Israel go join IDF.
But Israel gats to solve that Palestine matter, bombing and killing no go ever end Hamas or Hezbollah.
Netanyahu no go fit bring lasting peace to Israel, Yitzak Rabin na im be suppose settle dis matter once and for all but na im fellow Jews dem kpai am for seeking peace through dialogue.
This Netanyahu "mow the lawn" policy, na temporary measure.
Netanyahu need to know say even Hitler and Japan after all the shooting and bombing, the matter go end na for negotiation table.
Negotiate now or later but it must end through negotiations.
This is the reason Saudi refused Abraham accords with Israel because the custodian of the Kaaba can't make peace without Palestine.
Hamas and Hezbollah go recover and come back stronger and the cycle begins all over again.
Even Israeli kids grow up in fear of warning bomb sirens and running to bomb shelters.
How long must this go on?

This woman should be appointed INEC Chairman. She will do a fantastic job. She is someone who can't be bought with money.

Wow, he must be a good God, after seeing the suffering of Nigerians yet would keep Tinubu in power for another four years of tinubulation.

For those who want to know, the Nigeria Digital Switch Over program started some years back, in fact, Nigeria is even lagging behind other African Nations in the programme. Many countries have phased out analogue broadcast. But here, the giant of Africa and the most populous black nation on earth is still rocking analogue TV. Na who dey do us these things?

This may shock you, there is some level of trepidation now within Trump's cabinet that he may face challenges getting the number he needs to approve the US-Iran agreement in Congress because of his recent open criticism of Israel. The report suggests he may face a bipartisan rebuke due to the number of lawmakers across the divide who have condemned the statement.

Check the news, bro. Propaganda does not win a war. Because of you, I have attached a newspaper report screenshot.

dermmy:
Well done professor of English

Why are you guys twisting what Trump said? He was justifying the war, and said Iran would have acquired a nuclear weapon and wiped out Israel if not for him.

We thought Buhari set an unbeatable record for the worst president ever. Not only has the record been broken, but also a new record high has been set. He must be jealous wherever he is right now. MUMU ticket you do this one.

Attention-seeking fellow, talking from both sides of the mouth waaa! Like a derelict tipper's bucket discharging sand uncontrollably.

Take it or leave it. Believe it or not, name one country's Air Force in the world better than the IAF? They know how to fly these birds, and they know how to use them.

Pa Awo will be weeping profusely in his grave, hearing this from the supposedly beneficiary of his free education.

Wait a minute, the security agencies and law enforcement agencies need the Senate's mandate to go after the bandits?

These people always like to stay in the northern part of any region, state, or Nation they find themselves. Northern Nigeria, Northern Cameroon, North Sudan. Ín Jos, they stay in the North, in Kaduna, they live in the North, the same applies to Edo, Abia etc.

Kenneth, you once lived in bondage, when everyone was rejoicing that you had finally broken free, then boom! You went back to bondage, allowing Obi to live rent-free on your head. When you open your mouth waaa, Obi's matter starts falling out like a Tipper discharging sand.

Obi is giving them sleepless nights. Datti, Kenneth Okonkwo, just name them.

I guess this fellow is also looking fór an ambassadorial position from Tinubu. FFK and Reno did what he is trying to do now and were rewarded, but I am afraid,his attack dog hustle may end in shame.

Always be aware of your environment

These days they are picking Military personnel like bloody civilians. Are the bandits now calling the shots?

Where are the Iran is winning the war crooners?

A poor person in Germany is richer than the average middle-class person here. Do your findings and quote me.after.

This man said he would start from where Buhari stopped.
