APC is a disgraced party for using Remi Tinubu to play the Trump card. If PDP tried this back then, they would have screamed red murder.

They are the realest definition of hypocrites.

Mrs Tinubu traveling when people are killed back home, her husband going AWOL in January when people were killed. All of these they would have never accepted if PDP was in power. They cried foul when Jonathan traveled to Brazil and said he was a trainee president who didn't care about us. Look at them today.

If you listen to her interview, she still made it about herself. She will make diplomatic blunders that will put this government into more trouble and Trump will come harder for you.

I saw this comment online and it just captures my thoughts on the recent efforts of propaganda using Mrs Tinubu.

Begining of comment 

Mrs Tinubu has no official role in this government and I am surprised no one is calling her out as ACN/CPC and civil society did when they were in opposition. Mrs Tinubu is only the wife of the President. She cannot order the armed forces, sign any executive decisions or pass laws even if she was a former lawmaker. The Tinubu government should be bold enough to use our institutions and stop hiding behind shadows in dealing with the US. They know these tactics because they too use it in their politics. What is Tinubu afraid of? Buhari met Trump. Yar Adua met Bush. Obasanjo met Clinton. What is Tinubu afraid of?

If Tinubu passes away like Yar Adua did as President, Mrs Tinubu will not take over like Turai, she will leave and let the number 2 man come in. If Mrs Tinubu passes like Stella did, the Presidency will go on like normal and they will recognize a day or two for personal mourning. I don't know why we never learn from history. Pump this money you are using for propaganda into our institutions. We have well qualified people who can do this work, stop going through the corners.

The biggest 419 is the Vice President because he knows that Zulum is not the 001 in Bornu but himself.

No. I think he has learned the lessons of managing the mentee. Allow them be in charge and show them in public that they are number one. That's why they haven't fought and the other ones who wanted to force themselves, including Kwankwanso will always lose. Because Shettima allowed him be his own man, Zulum is the one defending Shettima when they are omitting his name for 2027. A Godfather who gets too involved will eventually be sacked. History always repeat itself. Read my last comment here, there is nothing like betrayal if Saraki could take out his own blood. It's the GFs that are being stubborn and foooolish.

nashito:
So Wike hired a white Body Guard!

Omo! This guys are making mockery of us sha

Nigeria is a cursed country abeg! I mean 77 million people are estimated to be poor & hungry and this guys just continues their looting spree

Our elites are sick in the head. Most of them have insecurity issue. I remember when I heard a topic like this. For them, it's all intimidation and show off. Just wait, some of them are waiting to get Israeli Forces just to boast that I am bigger than you. And he's a serving Minister 🤭🤡

casualobserver:
He is clearly an unstable and an unreliable character.

That guy may be buying time to strike at the right time where it will hit them the most. Godfatherism is not new, we have seen it happen everytime. In Enugu, Nnamani; in Rivers, Odili/Amaechi; in Borno, Ali Modu Sherrif/Shettima; in Kaduna, El-Rufai; in Edo, Igbinedion; in Oyo, Adedibu, IN Kwara, Saraki. If Saraki's own child could sack him, there is no loyalty you are looking for. Every man in power wants to be his own man.
Fubara has nothing to lose so he can keep behaving like mumu to them. That's why they are afraid of betrayal. Imagine this weakling then having might like Ambode developed might towards the election and challenged his master. That is why they also want to impeach him because they need to be sure who's on their side. Look how they accused Sanwoolu of working with Atiku because Obi defeated his Godfather and he had to prove loyalty.

Question 419

If the APC says the Governors are the 001 in their states and the Vice President says his State governor is the 001 in Borno State but the President says Governor Fubara of Rivers is not 001 in his state, who is the 001 in Kano APC?

A. Former Governor and Chairman APC, Ganduje

B. Governor Yusuf

C. Former Governor Kwankwanso

D. Only The President decides

E. Only the party can decide



Question 420

If the APC says the Governors are the 001 in their states and the Vice President says his State governor is the 001 in Borno State but the President says Governor Fubara of Rivers is not 001 in his state, who is the 001 in Lagos APC?

A. Former Governor and Current President Tinubu

B. Governor Sanwoolu

C. The Speaker

D. The GAC

E. Only the party can decide


Question 421

If the APC says the Governors are the 001 in their states and the Vice President says his State governor is the 001 in Borno State but the President says Governor Fubara of Rivers is not 001 in his state, who is the 001 in Rivers APC?

A. The President has decided. Jagaban talks, we don't argue. He overrides anything the party says because his 001 is ♾️

B. Governor Fubara

C. Former Governor and current Minister Wike, whichever party he goes to

D. The people of Rivers State

E. Only the party can decide

Double post.

shut up abeg. you offend someone still want to force them to accept your apologies?

Ian is still of the old school stock so I am not surprised. They were trained to be respectful in their generation.

She's also a millennial but their set isn't as grilled as the old school prim and proper in discipline and respect. Ian's generation was trained in a way that you will see it in their manner and conduct. There are certain cues you see that you know they raised this one well, even in writing. If I tell a Gen Z to watch this video below and tell me what Ian did that was out of respect, they will struggle to find out.

OLAADEGBU:
Ian Wright should cut his teeth managing a football team like the likes of Gary Neville and Thierry Henry before claiming to be a good pundit. If managing a football team especially at the highest level was easy all pundits would have been managers. Let Ian Wright go and manage the Jamaican National team and then come back as a pundit for real football fans to take him serious instead of dragging punditry in the women’s game.

Your claim is like saying all of us on Nairaland should first prove ourselves in politics, entertainment or technology before we can contribute to issues. Ian has proven himself as a player. There's no need to manage a team if he doesn't want to. Not every pundit played the game, not every coach also played the game. So your analysis holds no water. Analysts are what they are, analysing events.

OLAADEGBU:
She previously suggested that Ian was blocking female pundits from being given broadcasting opportunities 😬

This topic made me open the topic I have on my profile. I also made this comment on another thread for women in men's sports

SixSeven:
I don't care. I don't enjoy it. I was watching Chelsea's recent match against Napoli and I also saw other people also say the same thing. I don't care about political correctness. Super Sports has some female anchors and analysts, no problem but I don't want them for the men's football commentary. Women will bring in unnecessary controversy and distractions to our game, then they will play victim. Watch how Ẹni Aluko blamed Ian Wright for preventing women from their own sports and dominating it. They will spoil the sports for us. Just last year, you saw those female presenters on the pitch wearing boobs revealing clothes, women know how to draw the attention to themselves, we don't need that

Hmm why there are so much wisdom in your write up, you forget that a man's inability of his third leg to stay in one hole has cause wars and even the wiping out of entire generation and even cities.

Honestly it's a man's world but it's a woman's earth 🌏🤭

When I saw a thread that talked about pay gap in men and women's sports, I chuckled because men will eventually hustle to spend the big money on women

Men need women more. Some of those who take their life lack the care of women. That's why I believe nature cannot be changed. Women have their nuturing nature and men have their curious nature. Trying to be the other does not make sense. Let me share a joke with you by this comediene. Jokes are ways of saying the truth in a funny way.

Predictor3:
They were all just brainwashed by the fake black Islam religion. It was started by Fard Muhammad who wasn't even black. These same people later killed Malcolm x because he realized it was all fake religion and a big money making business. EVEN Elijah Muhammad's son went against him later.
But the blacks embraced the teachings of the Nation of Islam because it demonized the whites and Christianity and told them that blacks were the original humans. They were encouraged to drop their European names for Arab names.
But historically the Arabs were more depraved in their treatment of Africans. It was a case of any port in a storm for the blacks at that point.

As for Cassius Clay, he replaced one slave name for another. That's why you see more black Americans taking real African names now. Like Kwame, Yetunde and such.

Thank you for reminding me to post the second part of the snippet.

I don't think you won't see religion without some opportunists there. It's just like we see in Nigeria today where everything is politicized. The religious card makes people not think we'll but if it's about conviction, regardless of the NOI, Ali wasn't deceived. Someone strong enough to change his name could always change it at any time in future. Muhammad Ali's son and daughter haven't gone the way of X, so these things are a matter of faith.

During the 2001 Terrorist Attacks, Ali stood up to the position that it's not part of his religion.


https://www.tiktok.com/video/7191475903715691781


If there's something I admire about him, regardless of his religion is that he stood for what he believed in and he called oppression out. The US government did not like that at all, especially coming from a black man. The fact that he could lose his title and fame to stand for what he believed in says a lot about character. Most people are religious but their actions are wicked to humanity.

Snippets from public information to understand the story

Pacesetter123:
Chai, from the account you just given, that my brother was deceived to believe that Islam was the original religion of Africa.
If I know the ediot that deceived that guy ,I will................
The guy wanted to liberate himself from western slavery but one stewpeed guy, instead of helping him find his Africanism root in terms of religion and name,chose to deceive him into a bigger slavery,the Arab Slavery.

If you reply me with the argument about religion, I'm sorry, you chose the wrong person. I told the other person who quoted me that I am not here to give any conclusions, only facts. Your comment ignores the circumstances that made him accept another religion and what it did to his career and to the US. Speaking of black men in America, there's a reason they will likely accept Islam and not Christianity. I am talking about Americans who were not Africans who traveled to America but AAs. If you don't understand the environment and what happened around that time, you will make wrong conclusions. And just to be clear here, I detest anyone who uses religion to deceive anyone. India's biggest problem is not just the caste system, they literally broke that big country into three or 4 because of religion. UAE is today sponsoring deaths in Sudan and they are supposed to be Muslims so I cannot be deceived by religious affiliation means you are the best or worst.

I will give you snapshots of a little of his story but it is important to read his biography before coming to conclusions. That's what I tried to do to the other guy. Unfortunately I cannot repost his book, you have to read it. Faith is a personal decision and I won't be the one to tell a man what to believe in. There is another quote from Ali about a man and his convictions.

Pnutbota:
I beg to differ on your answer to paragraph 4, and that is the reason for the state of our society. Focus on the girl and train her properly while neglecting the boy child. And these 2 are expected to live as one in adulthood.....common nau

I understand you and see, I am objective when it comes to discipline but I am also a realist. Unfortunately, men's mistakes does not affect them as it does women. As a traditionalist, the proper way was that men raised the boys while the women raised the girls but we all dropped the ball and took them to school and expected the school to teach them life. Never! Both men and women need elders in their lives, they need mentors, they need mothers and fathers. The community raises the child but we let our guards down and copied oyinbo way which is much worse.

I was on the other thread where that young man impregnated the girl and they forced them to marry. I was smh when I saw Nigerians saying it was wrong etc. They say it is wrong to marry at your teenage years but it's okay to knack? What's so special about marriage that our people are afraid of that we use education as a camouflage? We are simply deceiving ourselves. African tribes made you go through the rites of passage and it wasn't 18. By the time they had taught you and you had been exposed by the clan, they will give you the tools to succeed in life. They would have made you apprentice who has a skill to work to earn money so you can take care of your responsibilities but we say be a graduate, be a post graduate but you cannot earn a living unless you work in an office. If the office gives you no job, you cannot earn a living
Meanwhile your biological clock is ticking and no amount of patience can suppress your changing hormones. Our forefathers aligned your growth with your puberty and put the necessary means for you to not be wayward, enjoy life, have sex and be responsible for the results of sex. They guide you on how to select a family to MARRY.
That's what is missing today. We think western education is the only way to live life when life itself is a mystery to be solved and only experience can teach you. How many of life's experiences are in the syllabus?

Death is the only constant thing in life that equals all human beings.

Tradition that feeds on fear will one day starve on truth because a home that threatens death cannot teach loyalty but fear. As much as I want to be ethical and tell you it's wrong for anyone to cheat, the reality is that life is not fair and we know who is affected the most. Some of these laws were written for inheritance, not for fairness. It's just like someone who says a man should live in his in-laws house when there are proverbs that warn against it. So if that his wife dies, what does her family do the man (widower)? Send him back? Customs and traditions protect the future first, even when the present bleeds. We all want order, that's why they had many of these things as deterrent to prevent people from the disruption of social order.

When a child is born, the mother is known but the father must be proven. Our people were not ready for confusion, no DNA so they came up with another proverb that only a mother knows the father! This is still true today if you watch paternity cases, despite DNA and advancement in tech. The elders punished where they were certain, not where guessing began because lineage fears confusion. Some of the judgment they served then is now called jungle justice. Bear in mind that we have a lot of traditional families and they didn't want a bastaaard to inherit the throne.

There is a popular case on Justice Funmi's show. You now understand why they say only a mother knows the father. If you listened to the woman alone, you would have made your own wrong conclusions and convicted the guy

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bfy9hr-zf_I

But when the guy came to give his story, you now understand the wisdom of our fathers that it's only an old foooool who judges by listening to one side alone

I am just trying to remind women that the reality of their promiscuity is more dangerous than the reality for men. Call it unfair but that's the reality.

Have we thought of why parents focus on the girl child more than the boys? The womb is the doorway of ancestry, so it bears the heaviest lock. The best way mothers knew then was fear that's why they said if you slept with a boy you will die

What enters the house through the woman stays for generations. A man’s mistake shames him but a woman’s mistake reshapes the clan. That's why even if a man did OS, by the time he repents, he will find a virgin to marry. Same cannot be said of a woman. Call it double standards but its the reality of life. That's why I said there's ethics, there's reality of the morality and there's understanding of why we do things because....

A man’s doubt sleeps in his mind but a woman’s doubt sleeps in the child.
Everything is just to protect women from giving us children we are not sure who the father is or causing confusion by breaking social order

SmartPolician:
Whenever slavery becomes a topic, Black Africans are always the victims. This means the world has never had regards for black people. Interestingly, that has not changed today.

Guess what, Nigerian leaders and people have refused to get their acts right to gain some global respect. That's why Nigeria needs a leader like me to format people's brains!

If you don't love yourself, you can't expect the world to love you. That's the summary of our leaders.

People who can let their people die and suffer don't love themselves. Anytime a foreigner wants to ask me about Nigeria, they often say, "I don't understand how your leaders allow you people suffer". No matter how much I want to explain the international dimension to our problems, I really can't defend that part. It doesn't make sense to them. It's not as if they too have saints in their countries, they just think it's common sense for your leaders to take care of you first instead of letting you suffer and die like chickens. That's why they have no respect for children of these elites who go abroad. Guess what? Even if your parents do legitimate work, the international students think you are probably the child of a corrupt looter! It reflects badly on all of us.

Na we de do ourselves.

Meta said you should talk to your neighbours as if they can hear you. That's how you know artificial intelligence from real. Have we tried talking to our governments?

Generator noise is not the loudest of your problems, it is the fumes that are the silent killers and probably one of the reasons for the increase in cancer cases in Nigeria without us knowing. Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a major component of fuel generator fumes. Carcinogenicity of these compounds has long been established. Those pollutants are not safe for your air and direct contact with your skin, water and environment. Imagine sitting behind the exhaust of a vehicle. That's what we are doing to ourselves.
If you cannot sleep well because of the noise, your health is affected. If you cannot hear well, because of the noise, your hearing is affected.
If you cannot breathe well because of the smoke, your health is affected. If you have the money, switch to solar but what sense does that make if you still live in an environment where your neighbours still use generators? You see why Nigerians need to solve this problem as a collective instead of doing I beta pass my neighbour competition.

Most of these guys are getting old and at that stage, they usually don't give a damn anymore. 2 Baba is in his 50s, what's there to fear in life anymore? Most of them look back at this stage because they already know the industry and the game.

BlackViper:
If he wanted an African name, he could have chosen a Yoruba, Igbo, Ashanti, Źulu or Bambara name. Instead he chose an Arab name because he was deceived by the ex convict Malcom X into thinking it was an African identity.

Shortly after defeating Sonny Liston on March 6, 1964, Elijah Muhammad of the Nation of Islam officially gave him the name Muhammad Ali. He had briefly used the name "Cassius X" just days before this formal change. In his 1975 autobiography, "The Greatest: My Own Story," Muhammad Ali addressed the idea of being "deceived" by clarifying that his name change was a deliberate act of self-liberation, not a misunderstanding of history. Muhammad Ali changed his name in 1964 because he viewed "Cassius Clay" as a slave name that belonged to his ancestors' masters. Even though he was named after a white abolitionist, Ali felt the name was a brand of white supremacy and insisted that he didn't want to carry a name he hadn't chosen for himself.

He opted for an Arabic name rather than an African one because, through the Nation of Islam, he was taught that Islam was the "original" religion and culture of Black people. To Ali, names like Muhammad ("worthy of praise" and Ali ("most high" weren't just titles;, they were a way to reclaim a spiritual heritage that existed before the slave trade. Watch the earlier video I posted.


https://www.tiktok.com/video/7537412986873466134

He argued that these names connected him to a global community and a higher purpose.
In his writing, Ali made it clear that he wasn't deceived; he was seeking a sense of dignity. He believed that an Arabic name was the most authentic way to replace the "X" that represented his lost African lineage. Whether he was deceived or not, I am here stating facts and one man's side of the coin is another man's side.

In 2015, they wanted a Christian Governor in Lagos.

In 2027, they are now clamouring for a Muslim Governor in Lagos.

It never ends. After dividing us with tribalism, they will use religion. All of them, Muslims and Christians are guilty.

Now I understand Joey Barton's comments when I posted it yesterday

SixSeven:
A pundit once got into hot water for calling this observation out. Joey Barton, a former Premier League footballer and manager, sparked significant controversy and "got into hot water" in December 2023 for a series of social media posts claiming that women should not be involved in commentating or providing analysis on men's football.


https://www.tiktok.com/video/7537277571801550103
I will not go to the extent of Barton for analysis but I agreed with him. He called it woke and used some nasty words. Football is where men feel free, once you start having these unnecessary emotions in the game, I am afraid we will lose it to softness and unnecessary distractions. It's not to say men are perfect but I fear a day when in football, men will be afraid to unpack (not in a racist or abusive tone) how they objectively want to talk about issues.

It is not but if you read his biography, you WI understand the story that made him change his name and the experience that led to it too.
