SportsRe: Favour Ofili Denied 100m Spot At Paris Olympics, Mistake By NFF by Shattuck(m): 8:50am On Jul 31, 2024
Disappointing but not new, corruption has dealt a heavy blow to Nigeria, that we can't even get even the simpliest of things right, the sports administration will then come with the blame game and an excuse for their failure, and then everyone goes home, and then it repeats itself, nobody pays for nothing, nobody is held accountable.

Congratulations in advance sir.
It is a worthy honor to serve your fatherland and go back home to retire without a blemished record.
a shameful legacy, the worst CJN ever, under his watch nepotism thrived, took part in partisan politics, promoted illegality, the judiciary is in a terrible state.

Well done Kenneth. It took you some time but better late than never. That agulu man was of no good to begin with. Thanking God for making you break your Obidient cult slave chain.
it is not the duty of the presidential candidate to fix the party, the party has a chairman, isn't this one of the problems we have in Nigeria where the governors and president controls the affairs of the state/ nation party activities when the party has an exco.

Ola9ja23:
What if the protest degenerate into violence and vandalism of properties as well as arsonist looting shops? Would you be there to face the wrath of law with your lives ?


For every action there must be consequences
isn't it the duty of the police to arrest the arsonist and criminals, is it the duty of the protesters to arrest criminals, if it gets to that level it means kayode egbetokun has failed and must resign.

Foreign AffairsRe: Drenched In Blood - How Bangladesh Protests Turned Deadly by Shattuck(m): 10:24am On Jul 24, 2024
Tayorshd87:
Am happy seeing other countries protesting against bad governance because it's only Nigeria they will classify as d worst in the world .


Yet they family understand that economy inflation and d likes is a global problem ask sudan, somalia, libya, Kenyans , Bangladesh, Morrocco, UK, US. Etc

I know one fool will still quote me that Nigerian own is d worst and yet he is still living in Nigeria

So what am saying in essence is that our problem in Nigeria is not about party because same set of people are still rolling us since 2009 look at amaechi again decamping to APC 😢
..
It's not about the person in power , even if obi was there we might experience worst ,


ECONOMY WOWS IS A GLOBAL ISSUE NOT NOT LIMITED TO NIGERIA ALONE PLEASE TRY TO SAY GOOD THINGS ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY NOT EVERYTHING YOU POST ON THE INTERNET THAT NIGERIA IS THIS AND THAT WHICH OTHER COUNTRIES ARE NOT ODING THEIRS.

don't forget even if there is war or division today as people are shouting I and u are not safe we are all experiencing it and we should just endure and shun protest in any form because even if u die in the long run people will still flourish buy cars and build houses yet in the economy u are complaining .



Nigeria shall be great someday ✍️

PoliticsRe: Tinubu Govt Hires & Pays Northern Group To Destabilise Protest - SaharaReporters by Shattuck(m): 12:21pm On Jul 23, 2024
joseph1832:
Hmm. Another rhetoric.

I would have thought they would have provided concrete proof like screenshot of credit alert received by the members of this so called group, and also, list the names of the members of the group who received the N1500 paltry sum.

All the same, I thought the protest was against economic hardship in the country, why am I reading protest against bad government?

This is more than enough proof to know this protest is being sponsored by people who have hidden agendas.
is economic hardship not a result of bad governance?

How did he single out ibos when he called out people from several tribes in his twitter write up?
Dem don use victim mentality swear for these people.


This is onanuga's post below 👇👇👇 except this unknown individual on egbereTV news is saying Obidients are 100% ibos. Out of the 5 people he signed out, only one is Ibo.
the fool called bayo clearly inferred that everyone who protested during endsars is ipob, he also said that ipob are the supporters of obi, that is a foolish statement by everyone thinking except the Ronu swines.
Foreign AffairsRe: I Will Do Everything To Defeat Trump & His Extremist Agenda - VP Harris by Shattuck(m): 1:04am On Jul 22, 2024
Dogalmighty17:
Kamala Harris, already endorsed by Joe Biden will be in a formidable position to win. Only she out of a possible number of other candidates will be able to immediately access the over 300 million dollar war chest of the Biden/Harris campaign. US campaign finance laws prohibit the Biden campaign to transfer that money to anyone else.

Bill and Hillary Clinton, Barrack and Michelle Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Senate leader Schumer have all endorsed Harris candidacy.

A large slew of celebrities and heavy pocketed donors will also likely line up behind her.

Kamala may pick Gov. Gavin Newsom of California or Ben Shapiro of Pennsylvania as her vice candidate.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR TRUMP?
Trump so far has only released a limp listed video attacking Harris for her laughter and the situation at the border. Donald Trump very much preferred to run against Biden. Having to face Harris complicates a lot for Trump.

Trump a known racists will struggle to not make racial attacks against Kamala. He cannot help himself but make racist attacks. This will drive more voters away from him.

The overturn of Roe vs Wade by supreme court judges Trump appointed, already has women all over America furious. These women will come out massively for Harris. Trump knows this that is why at the recent RNC convention, he made sure every anti-abortion rhetoric was eliminated.

Harris is 55 and Trump is 78. All the insults Trump has been hurling against Biden due to his age, will now turn a sharp focus on Trump. He can't keep his thoughts together nor follow his statements in a way that makes sense. Trump is also suffering from dementia. He has refused to allow any of his medical reports be released.

Harris was a prosecutor. She will be able to hammer home the fact that Trump is a convicted felon. That will not be a good look for trump. Will the US elect a criminal into office? Time will tell.

Overall, this election will be the most consequential in American history.
I doubt she would pick Gavin newsom, they are both from California, I think she would want to spread out, I think she stands a better chance at the polls than Biden, if powerful and institutional democrats rally round massively, Kamala is also good with words, with her charisma she can also win over the younger generation of voters, her California hometown population too, she stands a chance it would be reckless for anyone to write her off

buhari handed 35 billion dollars while still paying subsidy, the money from subsidy removal alone should make up for the 7billion dollars, this isnt anything remarkable.

You're just throwing around baseless accusation to back up your point.

So it is under Tinubu Dangote tell Nigerians he's ready to start producing?
I thought you guys were pretending to be dangote's cheerleaders now that he is receiving the heat from the govt why aren't you guys speaking up for him and criticize the govt for trying to sabotage his business, guess your love for dangote has been hypocritical all the way.

first when tinubu first came to power you all praised him for the dangote's refinery setting a date for fuel production,now that it isn't what you hoped it is only fair tinubu also takes part of the blame, 2 it is obvious the govt is reluctant to assist him, calling his product inferior, rather than support him.

The people who claimed Dangote refinery will never work are the same people who are now claiming Tinubu and Yorubas are working against Dangote... When we start calling them out now, they will accuse you of hating them.
the world can now see who truly are the enemies of Nigeria, why is tinubu bent on destroying dangote's refinery, if you love dangote so much why not call out your druggie president.

all of a sudden you guys are now against protest, protesters everywhere in the world are now seen as enemies of their countries, a few years back before APC came to power you guys were all about protest, even your clueless president protested, and one of the things you all brag with is the June 12 fight for democracy which were mainly done by protest, now protest is now evil, Ronu folks are just easily predictable, you stand for nothing.

Themainboy22:
BATerians and their penchant for cheap emotional blackmail.

I know they are happy now, as their propagandas are going well as planned.

The Obidients has been shouting it that they are not interested in any protest, and they know it
that if Obidients did not join, the so called protest is most likely gonna flope especially in the south.

They are just using the opportunity to disenfranchise the well meaning yorubas from demonstrating their legal human right to protest, under the guise that "Igbos" want to destroy their land government.

It beats my imagination how these reta.rds thinks that a particular tribe, can a successfully carry out a protest in the s.w without the full support of their people.

Can a yoruba man carry out a successful protest in kano without the backing of the Nrthners? Can they do the same in Enugu?

I wish these guys know how weak and senseless they appear, when they comes online to weep on how other tribes are planning to destarbilise their region in the name of protest.
real talk, when propaganda is being dished out, they think they are smart, that they have been able to divert attention, but the only thing that shows is just their foolishness.

Yes,he's more known in Benin not outside benin.that is because Lp is popular in Benin and he started campaigning before okpebholo.it is good as it would help divide pdp votes.the more lp is stronger,the weaker pdp gets
you and this your dividing pdp votes, there is nothing like that in Edo state LP votes is LP Edo state is unanimous in Edo central producing the next governor so there is no dividing anybody's vote Olumide akpata is going nowhere, same with okpebholo.

* Check whether a person is actually on the list before saying he is not on the list.

* Check whether a person is on the just missed out list before asking where the person is.

* Consider the period under consideration before asking for athletes from the 1990s (it's from 2000 till now).

For your Information ...they are all in agreement that obaseki didn't perform well at all and voting for anyone he annoited is a disaster .The chances if pdp winning edo state is very very slim . Edo people have realised there mistake. They still believe oshomole still remains the best governor they had . More importantly that Monday is a esan man ...
speak for yourself,Asue is likely to win, and he is esan too so that ethnic card is not going to work for okpebholo.

Hmmm.you started well but destroyed the analysis by saying Asue will win without giving sufficient reasons.majority of Lp supporters are pro pdp.they will prefer pdp to apc so it's pdp's loss...
Some obidients will vote Asue,some will vote akpata and that will just be the difference.i am closely monitoring the campaigns of the three parties and from what I am seeing,there's no stopping APC.if you are a deep political analyst,you won't argue this.even nature points to okpebholo
do you know what makes obidient, obidient movement in Edo state is about principles, fairness and competence, when we supported obi it was due to both reasons for fairness the south east has not been in power, for competence obi stands out above the rest, now bringing those two principles into these for fairness it is the turn of Esan( Edo central ) these rules out akpata for competence asue's profile overshadows okpebholo who has not track record, who wrote waec in his forties, who can barely express himself, who forges certificate, just like tinubu. Now tell me what okpebholo has going for him that can make him win.

Edo citizens do not have that much emotional or political attachment to political parties, Asue is winning and obidients and pdp members will show their support for him, the only folks who will vote APC are just friends and family of the contestants and APC maybe some APC card carrying member nothing more

actually the reverse is the case in terms of being myopic, we know for a fact that things can be externally influenced, that shouldn't take away our ability to be objective or provide an excuse for poor governance, Ruto pushed his citizens to the wall and they reacted, the ford foundation is a private foundation and one of it's main goal is fighting for social justice, my guess maybe it provides financial support for foundations in Kenya, maybe one of those foundations supported the protest that does not make neither the ford foundation or the US liable for it, Ruto is just trying to be manipulative, if he has concrete evidence why not present it

PoliticsRe: Supreme Court Got It Wrong On LG Autonomy- Punch Editorial Board by Shattuck(m): 8:15am On Jul 16, 2024
Kenochi:
This punch editorial is saying a lot of things but not making sense
In one word,you condemn the Governors for dissolving democratically elected local government councils and in another breadth you say that council chairmen are irresponsible because they don't pay primary school teachers
The same article says that there are only two federating units but in another breadth,it says in the Nigerian Constitution it mentions and lists three federating units
This same article talks about America and Brazil,is there any rule that says that any country can't determine what structure of government would work for it
Is it not in this same country that Governors loot their states blind,should we now say that because Governors are corrupt,we should scarp states and bring back regions instead
Please this article is just playing to the gallery,and I don't blame them
In our 24 years of Democratic experience,we have seen our LGAs become a place used by Governors to settle their political touts and aides
The LGAs if truly functional is supposed to a place where future leaders are spotted,it creates avenues for councillors to be elected,the circle of political leadership starts from the bottom
Who says an LGA Chairman can't raise to be become the president if he performs well
Finally,all this talk of corruption must stop,LGA Chairpersons don't have immunity and any chairman that transfers his monthly allocations to the state would have himself to blame
What needs to be done is for the Govt., and the media to start sensitizing the public on the role of the LGAs
If all organs of Govt. are functioning,it will reduce the pressure on the Federal Government
the punch editorial is playing the devil advocate, which is understandable, while I support the LG autonomy, based on the excesses of the state government, the LG themselves still needs oversight too, which makes the argument go both ways, I guess what the punch is trying to say is that the constitution which is supreme does not recognize the LG as a tier of government, if that is the case then the supreme court does not have the right to grant the LG autonomy, if the govt thought it was necessary to grant autonomy to the LG they should have done so through the national assembly by amending the constitution, and not by a ruling by the supreme court who has no power to alter the constitution.
