After crying blood, then tell us how many votes your 3rd Class Philosophy graduate got in all the Core Northern states which have the highest voting numbers. Now I understand why your candidate studied Philosophy, to add 1 + 5 + 2 is difficult for him and his headless mob

Jaquar456: Enugu State ushered in the South East Annual August Meeting at the expansive Michael Okpara Square, Enugu Metropolis . This year’s August Meeting Ceremony was a superlative event, featuring several dance troupes, parades and March pasts by over 40 women’s groups, charitable interventions, medical outreach, farm produce exhibitions and everything wonderful about the amazing role women play in Igbo sociocultural and economic community development.
The First Lady of Enugu State Mrs Nkechinyere Mbah played host to an impressive entourage from Abuja, led by the Wife of the Vice President of Nigeria Hajiya Nana Shettima who represented the wife of the president Sen Oluremi Tinubu who stormed the event with wives the of National Assembly leaders. Women from the various local governments received several gift items to celebrate and kick off the 2024 August meetings across communities in Enugu State. The Women’s August Meeting is an ages old yearly traditional event across all Igbo communities aimed at mobilizing and rallying women for community development, political participation and selfless service where pressing issues concerning women are addressed. This year’s theme is ‘ Eliminating Abuse to foster a healthy society’.
Barr Jesutega Onokpasa, an APC chieftain was a member of the now-dissolved Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council and also a member of Tinubu's legal team during the tribunal and Court cases in 2023
I didn’t listen to that clip. Tinubu choses who is best for him not for Nigeria. Everything had been about himself. He’s a good rewarder of his loyalists. He can’t see beyond his mindset. That’s his limitation. That will also be his undoing. He believes in godfatherism. He believes he can buy the law and drive it around in his boot wherever he wants. He hates due processes and love short circuits. His idea of collective progress is outrageous IGRs..,taxing everything that breathes, connecting pipes to wherever money exchanges occur. He’s dumb in economics and smart in Nigerian politics (because you don’t need productive reasoning to be a leader here.) He’s a disaster to economic stability and the husband of Oluremi.
Philipponzaghi: Bode George's perspective is noted, but palliatives are a step in the right direction. The FG is trying to cushion the effects of hardship while exploring sustainable solutions. Let's give them some credit for the effort!
Shut up your mouth joor! Cho cho cho chua chua...
Same you bring premium hardship, same you bring palliative. Same you break my hand, same you give me bandage. No be fraud be that When last did you see developed countries share palliatives apart from during pandemics or conflicts? Una no wan get sense.
Deeprooted: You should be jailed for such misconception!!!
Russia has more than 2 aircraft carriers, go to the Red Sea and you will understand what I mean

A 🇺🇸 U.S Army helicopter crashed at a military base in Alabama on Wednesday afternoon killed one person and injured another, military officials said.
An AH-64 Apache helicopter crashed during routine flight training on Fort Novosel Army base, about 94 miles (151 kilometers) south of Montgomery, according to a statement from the U.S. Army Aviation Center of Excellence and Fort Novosel.
The crash killed the flight instructor, while a US. Army student pilot was airlifted to a hospital for additional evaluation, according to the statement.
Dale County Coroner John Cawley identified the deceased instructor pilot as Daniel Munger, 46, who was a contractor and retired from the Army.
Military authorities did not immediately provide any information about the circumstances of the crash. The statement said the accident is under investigation.
“Our primary concern is the welfare and health of the student pilot and care and concern for the family of the deceased,” Major Gen. Clair A. Gill, U.S. Army Aviation Center of Excellence and Fort Novosel commanding general, said in a statement emailed to The Associated Press.
EreluRoz: People are hungry and crying and have resulted to protest and you are arresting them? Make it make sense. Honestly this is not the asiwaju I know and was told about, he's entirely a different thing as president.
People like you also chose Buhari because your sense of judgement is skewed by prejudice and mediocrity. Looking at Lagos alone, should let any working brain know that Tinubu is a woeful failure..,not to talk of how he came to power. Buhari ended his administration as uselessness personified. Now the Tinubu who recommended the same Buhari, even as a failure, is the same person you’re saying you never had a clue was daft. How can you patronize a Chemist recommended by a quack and cry about medical complications later Same reason I call Soyinka a fool.
ScamDemicEra: .... another self conceited tribal retard with no head for figures, spewing Yoruba hatred all over social media !
Apart from the blatant rigging, INECs concocted numbers show Tinubu became president with less than 8.8 million votes. ** Did all that less than 8.8 million come from Yorubaland ? ** What percentage of Yoruba people actually voted for Tinubu ? ** How can any sane person claim Yorubas are responsible for Tinubu presidency ?
May OLODUMARE hasten the expiry date and open blind eyes.
[quote author=HgsMediaPlus post=131359310][/quote]I can’t conclude anything on this because the video didn’t include the defendant’s statement. The content creator just wanted more traffic. That’s the loudest message I got in the short clip.
bassdow: if Russia ever imported drones from Iran, could be at the very early stage of the conflict. That's because Russia have set up multiple Drone manufacturing plannt right on Russian soil. Need I remind you, Russia and USA are 2 countriies with highest and Advanced weapons manufacturer and Russia's weapons industry is obviously much larger than USA.
Don't forget, Israel has got friends (other countries). Recall not quite long ago, Iran embarrased israel by sending drones to israel and a lot of countries helped israel shot most of the down. USA knew what they were doing by having footprints in several countries. Israel is going to rely on those.
Iran is far from Israel so a lot of their missles & drones would have to travel over other countries. Russia got advantage when fighting thhe WEST (including USA) in that they are so large most of her enemies could be reached very directly. Those they can't reach directly, they would rely on their strategiic friend Belarus which is more like an extension of Russia. BUT unfortunately for Iran, Russia ain't fighting Israel, only shipping them equipment. Russia is even friends with both Israel and Iran, just that the bond with Iran is kinda stronger than that with Israel hence Russia remains nuetral. Something some people in here seem not to understand. Russia is both friend to Iran and Israel. The support from Russia ain't equal with Support from USA.
USA is friends to just Israel and hostile to Iran hence complete Support for Israel BUT Russia is friends to both Israel and Iran hence sort of neutral. Make another country come attack Belarus first. in terms of Weapons industry, Russia is much bigger than the WEST. and have even further increased since start of conflict with Ukraine + they're selling to Iran, not donating to them. You might be RIGHT, I might be RIGHT; unfortunately, I'm not here to argue
in terms of Weapons industry, Russia is much bigger than the WEST. and have even further increased since start of conflict with Ukraine + they're selling to Iran, not donating to them.
Which kind mumu analysis be this? Which village and clan did you type these nonsense from? The US produces the most military equipments/ weapons in the world.., over 40% globally. See the chart below. First 5 companies are US companies with Lockheed Martins topping the chart. All these beer palor analysts. Nairaland will be giving you delusive relevance with idiotic likes.
FreeStuffsNG: Iran practically is next door to Russia but US has to travel several kilometres to reach Israel.
There's poor strategic thinking if the support of US to Israel is compared to Russia supporting Iran, it is obviously skewed against the Americans and Isreal.
This is why diplomacy is the best option and they should have seen this strategic disadvantage before murdering of Haniyeh.
Proximity or geographical advantage not poor strategic thinking . Your choice of words reflects the picture and state of your mind- a biased embittered one. Talking of strategy, never known a military with poor strategic judgment like the current Russian military. You guys term Putin a chess master, but he’s currently piloting one of the clumsiest operations in history.
Marc3500: Ever since I was small I never understood why ppl will be so hooked to this show Even when I was growing and I started to understand what it was about I still didn't see any special thing about the show Now I'm grown and I still see nothing special about the show Why they invest millions in this show And how the ppl who come out of this show become celebrities
BB America started about 2000 or 2001, if I can remember correctly . BB Africa kick started roughly 2 years later on Mnet. BB Nigeria followed in 2007.., or maybe 2006. How time flies.
emkz: It is no longer news that the protesters have publicized several demands and have not met to converge on what they want. Let us look at some of the demands.
(1) Scrapping of the 1999 constitution and replacement with a people-made constitution If the constitution is scrapped, what would Nigeria be governed with? If they need a people-made constitution, where is their own manuscript for that constitution? Do they think a constitution is something that is just written like a homework?
This specific demand is a call for an interim government, and possibly military rule. Once the constitution is suspended, Tinubu ceases to be president because his powers as president are legitimized by the constituion.
(2) Toss the Senate arm of the Nigerian legislative system There is no where, there is no constitution that gives President Tinubu or anyone the powers to scrap a part of any arm of government. This can only be done by the military. This specific demand also calls for military rule. The other demand to make legislative work part-time would require a constitutional amendment. Tinubu does not have the powers to make that amendment by fiat.
(3) Increase minimum wage of Nigerian workers to 250,000 naira monthly This is something the president can do. Unfortunately, how many governors have been able to pay 30,000 naira monthly? How many can even pay 70,000 monthly, with the Gombe State governor already saying he won't be able to afford it? Thise who work in the public sector enjoy a lot of allowances, and lucrative trainings abroad and travelling. The salary is just what it is. There is a government agency that even gives all cadres of workers fuel allowance. Unfortunately, many states civil service won't be able to afford this. So 250,000 across board might not be accomplished and the president cannot be responsible for paying states' civil servants.
(4) Invest heavily in education and give students grants, not loans and compulsory education across Nigeria Some public universities institute scholarships for bright students as far back as 20 years ago. Some universities take over the fees of students on track to first class. Many states have bursaries with which they support students. Agencies like TETFUND? NDDC and PTDF have consistently funded students within and outside Nigeria. I won't support giving grants to dullards. Let everyone win grants on merit as it has always been.
The protesters may not know that agencies like UBEC had tried to tackle the issue of compulsory education, but even after FG releases money, some states fail to pay their counterpart funding. fPresident Jonathan built some almajiri schools; what is the state of the schools today? In my view, each state can decide to deal with the problem of free and compulsory education on their own.
(5) Unconditional release of Nnamdi Kanu, demilitarization of the southeast and release and compensation of EndSARS protesters Nnamdi Kanu's case is in court, why not allow the process to be seen to the end? As for demilitarization of the southeast, similar calls were made by Borno elders to former president Jonathan as they claimed the military was killing their children. Jonathan asked Borno elders to guarantee him they'd ensure an end to terrorism in their domain. They refused to assure him. It is the military that has ensured things have not become worse than they are right now.
As for unconditional release and compensation for all EndSARS protesters, are the protesters aware that some of those who claimed to be EndSARS protesters looted public properties and businesses? Are they calling for their release as well? In my view, those who committed crimes must be punished.
(6) Renationalize public enterprises sold to government officials and cronies Would be nice to know the specific public enterprises and the government officials who purchased them. I am sure the protesters are not aware of OPL 245 and the Malabu scandal that has ruined Nigeria's chances of making good money from that lucrative oil well? Even if the assets were sold corruptly, it cannot be retrieved by fiat. There is a process that can drag for many years. Only the military or an autocrat can reverse things like this.
(7) Reinitiation of a corrupt-free subsidy regime to reduce hunger, starvation and multidimensional poverty. This makes a lot of sense. Unfortunately, the same Nigerians will abuse the subsidy regime. Even the bags of rice that were donated, no matter how paltry; didn't some people attempt to rebag the rice to sell?
(8.) Probing the past and present Nigerian leaders who looted the treasury, recovering the loot and putting the funds in a special account to fund education, healthcare and infrastructure In other words, Nigeria should spend years on litigation. How about block loopholes so that no one can loot again?
(9) Restructuring Nigeria to accommodate diversity, resource control decentralization and regional autonomy This makes sense. Unfortunately, people from Mars will not be in charge of the regions. Look at NDDC that failed the Niger Delta people. Restructuring Nigeria will require a constitutional amendement and Tinubu cannot do it by fiat.
(10) End banditry and terrorism and violent crimes Why was this not point number 1? This is something the president can and must do. Everyone must work with him on this. The parents of the bandits, kidnappers and terrorists must give up their children; the rogue businessmen, religious leaders and local politicians must give up their businesses and report their footsoldiers to the authorities. The era of "he must not kill our people" must stop. Terrorism has destroyed the peace in most states and must be dealt with decisively.
(11) Estabishing a special energy fund to drive investments in the power sector Didn't Buhari sign a bill into law to allow states generate their own electricity? How many states have taken advantage of it? Didn't Nigeria also secure an energy development bank for Africa to be headquarted in Abuja recently to identify and develop Africa's energy sources? Of course, Nigeria will take advantage of this.
(12) Reconstitution of Nigeria's electoral body to remove corrupt individuals and partisan hacks We have heard so much accusation of the INEC chairman being bribed and thereby compromising the election. How much was he given? How was the money paid? In which account was it deposited? We need to be careful the way we throw accusations to soil people's names.
(13) Massive investment in public works and industrialization to eploy Nigerians Many among the youth publicly opposed the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway and sided with Landmark, despite his properties not adversely affected. We must all agree on what we want as a people.
(14) Massive shake up in the Nigerian judiciary to remove cabals of corrupt generation of judges Historically, the Nigerian Judicial Commission has destroyed many judges implicated for corruption. There was one hearing an elections petitions case and received a donation for his father's funeral from the defendant's lawyer, who was a SAN. They fired the judge and had the lawyer derobed of his SAN. Many judges have had their promotion stunted and dismissed. Because of the way the judiciary is, these things are not always in the press.
emkz: The protesters must be allowed to express their grievances.
The police must allow them run amok.
These children must experience what we experienced in the post June 12 annullment when people were maimed, women were not spared and people were killed.
Due to the liberal nature of the president, people are riding on his goodwill. They are asking for the return of fuel subsidy, release of EndSARS protesters (some of whom looted people's businesses and burnt public infrastructure), abandonment of the constitution, electoral reforms, and some called for regime change.
Deji Adeyanju blamed the president for increasing allocation to state governors post-subsidy removal who have gone on to mismanage the allocations. They are afraid to protest against the governors who eroded public service and local government administration.
Throughout yesterday, apart from the police station that was razed in Nyanya, most of the properties that were destroyed belonged to private individuals.
More than 22 persons were reported to have died , including the suicide bomb in Borno State. While Ebun Adegboruwa, Deji Adeyanju, Inibehe Effiong and Yele Sowore were singing days of rage, they forgot they won't be able to control the mob. Deji Adeyanju tried to blame the police for instigating violence.
Very dark nuisance was one of the promoters of the protest; suddenly, he wants an end to it because they didn't expect the outcome. Arise News anchors on the morning show called for protest, their bus was destroyed by the mob in Kano. Atiku supported it, but has not issued a statement to commiserate with the families of those killed yesterday.
To the protesters and rioters:
(1) Who will cater for the families of those killed yesterday? (2) Who will bear the cost of people's properties destroyed yesterday? (3) Which fund will be used to rebuild the infrastructure destroyed? (4) How will the mob leaders rein in on the mob they unleashed?
To Tinubu:
(1) You have been advised to address the nation and douse the tension. Don't do it! Only sensible people are ready to listen to you. Right now, the protest leaders and the rioters are not reasoning. Let them continue and whenever you step it, it is to restore order in a decisive way. You don't need to say a word. Just do it. Learn from Buhari. (2) You cannot return fuel subsidy or return fuel price to 100 naira. The nation cannot afford it. Let each state government handle internal transportation at affordable rates. The easiest thing to do is to buy airconditioned buses and let them subsidize transportation. It is not FG who should take care of transportation within states. (3) Let cargo planes start leaving states like Plateau and Taraba carrying food from there and taking them to major cities. That would be a temporary solution until rail infrastructure is improved nationwide. (4) State governors must now agree to work with FG to tackle insecurity and strife within their states. The accusation of local politicians, religious leaders, military men and elites fuelling insecurity for business gains need to be nipped in the bud. One of the notorious terrorists accused a minister of funding them when he was governor. (5) Do not declare a nationwide state of emergency or curfew for any reason. Let each state governor declare such in their states if needed. (6) There are a lot of lies being peddled about your administration. There are lies that you bought a yatch. Where is the yatch? Some even claim that you bought a private presidential jet. How can a presidential jet be private? You may need to overhaul your information management team. You have the most media advisers in history and most of them are incompetent. Now is the time to look for a seasoned PR guru and let him bring his own team to manage information and public communications from the presidency. You have done a lot and that has not reached the ears of those who should know. As the saying goes, until the lion learns to tell his story, the tales of the hunt will always glorify the hunter. (7) Finally, stop being nice and too tolerant. You are managing a complex nation and a complex people. How do you explain children looting public property in Kano yesterday? Being nice will lead to you being messed up. Ask Jonathan. Remember a fool will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience. You must rise to the occasion. Remember General Sani Abacha was an effective leader, despite his many faults. He accomplished all he did for the nation by not being nice to anyone. Any stumbling block to national development needs to be weeded out.
Salewa97: VeryDarkMan should understand that Tinubu is a leader who knows how to handle situations wisely.
A curfew might not be the best solution, but I trust Tinubu to take the right steps for the safety of the people. We need to trust in his judgment and support him as he navigates these challenges.
…handle situations wisely, like he’s handling the economy of Nigeria, abi?
Look at the kind of people I share the same country with. They see fraudsters as smart people.
officialwdhtv: FCT Police commissioner and Lawyer Deji Adeyanju trade words over the court order restricting the protest convergence to the MKO Abiola stadium
While the police Commissioner insists the protesters move into the stadium to hold the protest as they were disrupting traffic by converging outside fhe stadium, Deji argued that the court order only stated that the protest be restricted to the stadium and was not explicit on whether they should gather inside or outside the stadium.
Chinkoalhaji34: Demonstration no be solution to our problems.
All this wahala wey dey happen, na for nothing.
Those protesters just dey disturb peace wey we get.
Make them go find better work instead of causing chaos for Abuja.
Ode. Papa mmaah. 🐄 🐮
Your Naira go soon hit 2.5k to 1dollar while your salary still remains the same. You will continue looking for a better paying job as the Naira keep sinking. You can add an Amen to that.
Philipponzaghi: Empty pot, empty brain. What do you expect from a protest where even the food is missing? Maybe she thought the pot would attract some sense into the crowd. As if carrying an empty pot will change the situation. Clowns everywhere!
Protests go with placards. Placards go with inscriptions and messages. The whole essence here is the message passed in clear, creative or even humorous ways. There’s no specific standard regarding such.
Take your mental challenges elsewhere. Gawd will see you through.
madridguy: If you are a Yoruba reading this, don't let anyone gas light. Their anger is the peace and development they want to scatter. They are jealous of Lagos. Don't join them or allow any miscreant to vandalize Lagos infrastructure.
Nigeria’s revolution would be bloody.., because of zombies like you in a family. Imagine a family with objective and intelligent members having a black sheep like you in their midst, being used as a political weapon to hamper development. They’ll just end you for the country to see a new dawn of progress. Being mentally useless can cause you your life.
Nwaikpe: You are obviously a product of the department of Secretarial Studies, Kogi State Polytechnic.
Its the type of you that thinks that every engineers should be fixing their cars cause "thats what they were taught."
Silly Okene boy
Mumuni.
You didn’t ask what circle/discipline I work in. You only assumed this nonsense because you have a closed mind. Now Turn around and ask around for any outstanding project that any Nigerian company or Institution has put in place, peculiar to certain longstanding problems on her terrain, that renders unique solution to this regard. From civil engineering, chemical, mechanical, electrical… Go take a look at the record of most SIWES projects so far if you need a practical definition of mediocrity. Show me a research institution in Nigeria with professors making exceptional breakthroughs/discoveries in science. Where do we stand in R & D?
It has to be technical issues. But Nigerian Universities churn out hundreds of engineering graduates every year. You ask yourself, to what end? Where is their usefulness in times like this? Or did their white colonizers take away technical abilities for development away with them too
Gistmedia10: A beautiful Nigerian graduate has captured the attention of social media users with a heartfelt and unusual display of gratitude following her university graduation. In a video that has quickly gone viral, the graduate is seen in her graduation attire, performing a unique act of thanksgiving that has sparked widespread discussion online.
The footage, which has been circulating on various social media platforms, shows the graduate in her signing-out wear, surrounded by an aura of celebration and reverence. As part of her thank-you ritual, she places her signing-out pen at the altar of a wooden idol. In her left hand, she holds a bottle of dry gin, while a local bell is firmly grasped in her right hand.
The graduate is then seen passionately praying to the wooden idol, expressing her gratitude for the assistance and guidance she believes she received throughout her academic journey.
