3 near crash flight incidents. One plane missed it's way to another city. Nigerian Aviation authority is playing with fire. God forbid a serious incident. Hope they won't come here and say its "an act of God"

SmartyPants:
I've seen Keyamo's full interview and he directly indicted the control tower too. This is not about any blame game - and if the airline had no part in it, why did they then come out to say the plane was diverted due to bad weather when it was obvious there was a fundamental mistake made??

Programmer47:
A control tower keeps track of its outgoing flights. Before the plane jets off , a flight plan is handed over to the pilot to assist with the navigational process. It was an obvious negligence on the part of the control tower, not the pilots.
It has nothing to do with the pilots not knowing the terrain.
At 30,000 ft in the air, there is no way to differentiate states. The "ignorant folks" according to you simply stated that Keyamo used the wrong technical term to describe the error and you immediately rushed to comment without properly analyzing what is being said.

"The pilots are not familiar with this terrain" is a sentence that reeks of ignorance.
A wrong flight plan was delivered to the navigator. It has nothing to do with the pilot who was just following his navigation systems.

I see this as just another scheme to attack aircrafts who probably run their aircrafts on wet lease.
Place the blame where it lies. On the control tower. Not only did they Bleep up the flight plan, they also failed to keep tabs on an outgoing flight which in some countries is grounds for severe reprisals.

Programmer47:
Ignorance is a disease sha. In your haste to sound wise you also displayed the same ignorance as our clueless minister.
There is a reason why we have something called a control tower.
Right from the inception of the flight, this should have been noticed.
Please read up so you don't embarrass yourself in a more public setting

Which club Rufai even keep for? What did he achieve?

Enyeama started from Enyimba doing what Rufai could never do in Nigeria and CAF Champions League.

Moved to Israel continued excelling with Maccabi Haifa. Because of Enyeama Israel became an opportunity for some of our Super Eagles - Yakubu, Ejide & co. Enyeama did so well in UCL for that small club that Europe could no longer ignore him.

In France he blew. Domestically, he won titles and not as a bench player but important 1st team starter and even captain scoring goals too. Won so many awards there. I think he still holds the Ligue 1 record for either least goals conceded in a season or longest clean sheet streak. Can't remember which but it was with Lille around 2013.

Internationally he always did well even when we lost you could never blame him. In our worst losses he usually performed so well that you knew the scoreline would be worse if not for his saves. Ghana, Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Tunisia, Argentina, France matches come to mind.

And Enyeama played with very bad squads of mumu players like Sani Kaita, Olofinjana, Oboabona marshalling our defence. Constantly under pressure yet excelling.


Who born Peter Rufai?

zoghys:
First I accept Wilfred was in goal for our 1994 qualification due to rufai's injury. But then my best goal keeper for the eagle still remains rufai regardless of the statics you may quote. In rufai's era we have Wilfred, Ike shorumu, rufai himself, alloy agu. All these goal keepers are fantastic goal keepers and could hold their own on a good day. But in Vincent era who do we have, Vincent, Vincent and Vincent, hence his numbers of caps.

I can't believe all the manner of assumptions here. I'm just having a laugh.

The popular motorbike brand in the early 90s then in Lagos was Okada from Japan.

Vespa was just fading out at the time


I am 100% certain of this because our house had a mechanic village - it was a motorcycle village. And each day, some bikes ended up parked in our compounds overnight and as a little child who was fascinated by these machines, I'd sneak up in the evenings to go sit on the ones parked in our compound. Though I was in my latter days in primary school, I could string basic words together and one of them was the "Okada" boldly engraved on those motorcycles.

Take this to the bank!!

How can you confidently tell people to take falsehood to the bank. I am old enough to know how the word okada originated. And those saying that it was derived from Okada Air, Nigeria's first private airline, are correct. I remember there was a football player then that was also popularly called Okada Air because of his speed or prowess with headings. Davidson Owumi, I think is his name.

zoghys:
Rufai is ten times better than Vincent, and I stand by that. We qualified for the first world cup with an away draw at algeira with Peter rufai been Rock solid at the post. Our first world cup is the best world cup we ever had and Peter was a backbone of that team. Yes, at club level Vincent made some marks, so is rufai in Spain among other countries.

Penguin2:
The nightmare of Agbado RONUs is the coming together of Atiku and Peter Obi under one ticket again or under whatever arrangement.

But from reality on ground, that alliance is becoming inevitable.

That Tinubu was able to be rigged in was because Obi was on the ballot.

But was Obi wrong to contest the last election? No.

Because by so doing, Obi has become a factor in Nigerian politics that no idiot would dare try to tell Atiku not to choose Obi as running mate.

As things stand, Atiku would even have a hard time convincing Obi to be his running mate.

Or alternatively, stupid Kwankwaso would eventually come back in shame to become running mate to Obi after his stupidity in the last election.

Had Obi not contested the last election and Atiku won with Southeast votes, fools would have attributed his victory to Okowa’s shrewdness and all those nonsense.

But now everyone knows who the main man is when it comes to Southern politics.

Happy birthday Atiku!

Obaseki declared the sit of 15 lawmakers vacant when they refuse to align. He dealt with Oshiomole and got away with it. Udom Emanuel dealt with Akpabio. I can go on. Ganduje etc.

The house has no choice than to align, if they refuse, the governor has all it takes to dismantle them. Shut down the assembly complex, which is the only constitutionally allowed place of sitting, followed by the government house. Fubara already have 5 lawmakers with him, those ones can be allowed sitting in government house, and from there , declare the sit of the other ones vacant and allow them go to Court while the case lingers. If the chief judge refuse to corporate, sack him and replace him

Don't mess with a Governor. Except Fubara mumu himself which I know he won't

tesppidd:
Are you sure about this?

If so, then it wasn't as serious and engaging as this...

No tear gassing somebody,
No burning buildings,
No police shootings.

I think Akpabio versus Udom was childplay compared with this.

Pierocash:
Many governors acted without federal backing and got away with it.

Behind every rumour, there is an element of truth in it. The earlier rumour of CJ been sacked maybe true, but it wasn't made public abnitio before everyone shielth their sword, but it may be a move that was about to be taken. Which can still happen if they refuse to realign with the governor.

A governor is a very powerful being as far as Nigeria is concerned. I laugh when I hear people boasting of how Wike will remove Fubara. The only way that can happen is if the supreme court remove him in this ongoing electoral case going on. Anything that makes him scale through that, one millions Nyesom Wike will be torn into pieces of he misbehaves

icedbreez:
The Clerk and all legislative staff are first civil servants...
It will be in their best interest to obey that circular and report in their place of new assignment or they stand the risk of losing their civil servant status.
2 queries and they are sacked and gone.

Ayed44:
The clerk is not sacked, he was only redeployed. Don't forget, the clerk is a civil servant.

Some people said here few months ago that the president had no power to remove the CBN governor. Tinubu removed Emefiele and nothing happened.

tesppidd:
I don't think we have ever seen such swift and quick falling out between godfather and godson.
Despite the fact that Wike and Fubara were very close.
Most godfathers and sons normally fall out after two years or more, but this falling out has taken only 5 months to happen.

It is all a testament to the fact that Wike demanded too much from Fubara to make him governor.
Way too much.

Power drunk, greedy, dictatorial, disrespectful, crooked, dubious, the list goes on.

The man was put on by Rotimi Amaechi and then held by the hand and made governor by Patience Jonathan,,
yet he acts like Almighty God dropped him off from the skies above and gave him inherent political powers.

Karma awaits Wike, and like Goliath a very lowly and unexpected adversery will demystify him,,

It might be Fubara.

Pierocash:
dey play.

He is quoting the same law they have never obeyed or followed. Once it doesn't go their way, they start quoting law.

You are quoting law with a Governor, even you that is the speaker can be removed by the governor without any consequence not to talk of ordinary clerk

Please can u tell us how Ehie Edison was denied?
Stop spreading lies Ehie Edison got a court injunction

Politicstoday:
Section 177 of the Constitution requires one to be a member of a political party before he could be vie for an electoral office.
Na Kwankwaso I blame most in romancing with Tinubu 😂 😆

I feel terrible that the mob mentality in Nigeria has obfuscated the true underlying issues that demand attention. In a related incident involving Burna boy where he sought a romantic interest, only to find out she was already with someone else at the venue. When she rebuffed Burna's advances, he flew into a rage and had her boyfriend shot in the club. Shockingly, there was no substantial public outcry, no legal action taken, and no one even hinted at pulling Burna's music from the airwaves. We continued to embrace Burna without reservation.

When Burna's aggressive behavior went largely unaddressed, it sent a message that such actions were tolerable within the industry. This lack of accountability set a dangerous precedent, allowing for a culture of unchecked aggression and intimidation to persist. If the industry had taken a firmer stance against violence and intimidation, it might have discouraged such behavior, potentially altering the course of events that led to Mohbad's untimely death and so here I equally argue that we hold individuals accountable for their actions, regardless of their status or influence within the music industry, but holding them accountable is not the same as having a mob mentality.

Shifting gears, Naira Marley operates a record label, and the artists under his umbrella are bound by contracts. Even the most illustrious stars have encountered conflicts with their record labels, as exemplified by Michael Jackson's scathing remarks about Tony Montana or Sony Music, the entity he was associated with, which he likened to a 'devil'.

Admittedly, Naira Marley and his associates likely had vested interests in Mohbad, whom they had invested in. Undoubtedly, they may have exerted some form of pressure on Mohbad to ensure compliance. Nigerians contend that these tactics may have contributed to Mohbad's untimely demise, and it's on the contention that Naira Marley has been sentenced already. No one is taking a step back to do possible re-assessments, or having the imperative not to subordinate an approach to the situation that uses a fair and impartial perspective. Nigerians forget that jumping to conclusions without comprehensive investigation risks perpetuating a cycle of vengeance and violence, that will potentially lead to even more tragic outcomes. They forget that when you take drugs away from someone having substance issues, their allegations then should be re-examined before using it as a basis for constituting guilt as substance abuse could impact a person's perception and memory, potentially leading to exaggeration or distortion of events. In the case of Mohbad, there is also a recording where what he alleged of Marlian music, he alleged of his wife. Of coz, he is dead and to suggest of his compromised state of mind having led him to misinterpret situations, inadvertently assigning greater significance or intent to actions that may have been far less malevolent might seem impossible to you, but did you not think so when he was alive, that changes in his weight, slurred speeches, slurred movements, allegations that he had withdrawal issues and possibly neglected his important obligations and commitment, had a sense of hopelessness in some of the videos evidencing his state of torment, had worsening mental health conditions, and possible health issues were all related to his substance usage? These were physical signs, psychological signs, behavioural signs, physical health issues, and withdrawal symptoms that are also associated with those now alleging maltreatment from Marlian Music.

Mohbad's passing doesn't preclude us from examining his state of mind especially if done with empathy and a commitment to seeking the truth and avoiding a re-occurrence. and such assessment does not diminish his experiences which is evident in the videos, but how about we admit that to understand the context of such videos is important to making judgments that could have significant consequences. Due process is a cornerstone of any just society and in ours, it appears justice is served in unfairly vilifying individuals.

If you disagree, so why is it not important to consider whether Mohbad's struggle with substance abuse played a significant role in his tragic trajectory, impairing his ability to fulfil his obligations to the Marlian record label? And that this, in turn, compelled Naira Marley's' camp to resort to increasingly forceful tactics. It's worth noting that Sam Larry, who may have one time been the source of Mohbad's drugs, likely exerted similar pressures on Mohbad, to recover the pay for the supply he made to him. This is purely speculative and not an assertion of fact, however, such speculation may be relevant in the context of understanding the video evidence depicting altercations between them. Why would you not think of possible motivations behind the conflicts captured in those videos? and yet make judgments while denying yourself any insight into the power dynamics, dependencies, and tensions that may have been at play. How ridiculous, but you believe instead that NDLEA at the behest of Naira-Marley administered a harmful substance to Mohbad and yet it is propagated without any slight scrutiny. Not a scrutiny at the timeline, which defies all logic because of coz, Mohbad's apprehension occurred during a period when he was known to maintain a cordial and seemingly unproblematic relationship with other members of the music label. Yet we go on, hinging on the notion that his drinks were tampered with as he was made to gulp a liquid substance that looks like water and we buy into it willingly suspending all rational thought and replacing it with an unfounded narrative that serves only to vilify Naira Marley caring not that it is not only implausible, but it defies all reason. Why would anyone resort to such an elaborate and risky scheme, and for what purpose would such an extraordinary lengths serve using an institution designed to combat drug-related issues, as the backdrop for such a clandestine act of poisoning Mohbad? If there were nefarious intentions, there are countless other, far more inconspicuous locations where such an act could have taken place, and easily done, because at the time, Mohbad was good with Marlian associates.

How ridiculous, it's more difficult to think it was Mohbad's lifestyle choices that led to his downfall and much easier to join the mob in thier fervor to lay the blame squarely on Naira Marley, and they do so insufficiently justifiably on his questionable history. That this is the case is a lamentable indictment of an entertainment industry and country that appears to be using Naira Marley as a convenient scapegoat.

The issue demanding attention is the complex web of factors contributing to Mohbad's tragic demise. This includes not only the intimidating tactics from both Naira Marley and Sam Larry, but also Mohbad's own struggles with substance abuse. The larger concern is how these elements intersected and ultimately led to the unfortunate outcome. It's important to recognize the broader systemic problems within the entertainment industry, such as the power dynamics between artists and record labels, and the potential for exploitation or coercion, but it's more important to address the issue of substance abuse, objectification of the female bodies which is glorified in their music.

Additionally, there's a need to address the public's response to such incidents, which has an history of overlooking or downplaying serious misconducts, until there is a fatal outcome.

The tactics of intimidation have taken a concerning turn, now directed towards Naira Marley and Sam Larry. Influential figures like Bella Shmurda, and others that stand to benefit from violence, have gone so far as to call for the lynching of Naira Marley and Sam Larry, perpetuating a culture of violence that threatens to claim even more lives. It's imperative to recognize that in our mourning for Mohbad's tragic passing, our grief may blind us to the fact that allowing such a situation to persist will not lead to a better society free from exploitation, intimidation or harassment. Instead, it is likely to breed further weaponry and violence within our communities.

Furthermore, Mohbad's peers and individuals seeking to establish their presence on social media platforms have inadvertently fostered unrealistic expectations of law enforcement. The police investigation, when conducted impartially, will likely exonerate Naira Marley while uncovering the role that substance abuse played in Mohbad's demise. This truth may be a difficult pill for many to swallow, as there is a strong desire for a scapegoat in Naira Marley. Succumbing to this desire, however, will only perpetuate a cycle of violence that will claim even more lives. It is crucial to approach this situation with a clear and rational perspective, seeking justice without resorting to further harm.
