AMINDA: Same way Tinubu was never charged for the drug dealing case as well. But if your cronies are the likes of Chargoury and suspected arm dealers, then it really leaves much to be desired. No smoke without fire.
He was never charged. You are right. Hence, he is a free man.
Dannyset: The coalition already started on a wrong foot.
Firstly, Sule Lamido tried to change history known to Nigerians despite the role he and Anenih played in the nullification of the June 12 election.
Secondly, fronting Elrufai a known liar to speak for it(coalition). Nigerians are aware that Elrufai can lie today and back it up with another lies tomorrow. That is why OBJ called him a pathological liar. It is that bad.
A group of liars cannot earn the trust of Nigerians, especially when it is being done by a Northerner.
Anenih was one of the, if not the, most corrupt politician that ever came out of Nigeria. He was so corrupt that his nickname was "Mr Fix it".
As for Lamido, he was also suspended from SDP for anti-party activities during the June 12 era. Same clown is now trying to re-write history.
Obiedun: Look what Ojukwu said. Evil people always do evil.
Even Peter Obi was one of those that were Nzeribe's (ABM) and Chukwumerije's foot soldiers that went to deliver the court order from Justice Bassey Ikpeme's court barring NEC from conducting June 12 election.
Obi was rewarded with a post by Abacha to head a port and he made his billions from that appointment from Abacha.
Karlovych: Fulani soldiers flogged the hell out of Abiola in the streets of Lagos while his people were cowering in fear in their various homes.
As I remember clearly, people came out in droves and defied the military. They were singing:
"how many people soldier go kill ooo how many people soldier go kill dem go kill us tire dem go kill us tire how many people soldier go kill"
Interestingly, I remember all the igbos in my class and their parents cowardly fled to the South East. We were still going to school with green leaves on our cars till it became too hot and school closed.
I dont blame the igbos that fled to their villages sha. After all, they were visitors in the SW, and they assumed a war will break out between the North and the SW, and they didn't not wan't to be part of it despite the evil role they played to annul the June 12.
Gbajure: The Ooni Oranmiyan must have been a Chief Priest then? Becos he was Ooni Adimula upon returning to IFE from Bini, before leaving for a journey to Mecca, which terminated at Old Oyo. And if he is, what do you called his descendants?
Dont mind the olodos,
Princes from Ife that established several Yoruba kingdoms like the Aworis of Lagos and Ogun, the Obanta of Ijebu, The Olota of Ota, Prince Awamaro of Ado Ekiti e.t.c are not royalty because they somehow think distorting history by cooking up some foolish chief priest story will make their Oloyo number 1 over his seniors
ogagun1: In the hay days of Old Oyo Empire, did the empire influence present day Ekiti, Ondo and Lagos? I just want to know.
No. The empire never got to ekiti, Ondo, ife, Ilesha and Ijebu..
And 2. The Oyo king is not the head of yoruba. Ife existed before oyo. The Benin monarchy and all other monarchy in the south respect the ooni, olofin, oghene e.t.c more than the Alaafin. Who is actually a junior king to many earlier kingdoms like ife, owu, owo, Benin e.t.c
Eastern Yoruba folks, after respecting the Ooni, respects the oba of Benin next. They dont rate the Alaafin that much and were never under his empire.
Those clowns or Oyo supremacist will say stuff like the ooni being a chief priest. Oranmiyan, the founder of Oyo became an ooni at ife. Was prince and later king iranmiyan a chief priest too. Ask them that question, and you will see them dissappear like cockroaches.
Offpoint1: Isrealis will killed, why Americans are safe at home.
A suppose peace mediator has just stir the war
Lots of Anericans are actually stuck in Israel and s various countries in the Middle East. Some have made it to Egypt and others to Turkey to fly back home.
I don't understand Trump at all. Americans would be paying high gas prices all because he wanted to get in a war on the side of Israel. For the first time in like 7 years plus, I liked the tweet of Republican representative from Georgia, crazy biatch MTG. The world is indeed going crazy.
The US is now asking China to stop Iran from closing that strait. Lol..
Price of gas in Nigeria will likely jump up too.
As for me, I will be going to fill up my 2 suvs tomorrow. Got to save myself some dollars.
dettolgel: I am not excited about it, it is sad that both sides have chosen to endanger the lives of ordinary everyday man. I am only concern about the bs and bear parlour nonsense you guys are peddling around Clowns everywhere
I only really started following it today as I cared less before. I am only worried about high gas price once Iran closes that strait everyone keeps talking about in America. I don't even remember the name of that strait without googling.
dettolgel: Hitting them hard in what sense? Someone came your house killed security heads and bread winners of your family all you could do is go to their house destroyed their breakable plates and then come out to claim that you have hit them hard. Clowns everywhere
Why are you so excited on this issue. I suspect you are one of those religious fanatics. . Lol.
I am enjoying the show as I have no horse in the race. I suggest you do same.
A roundup of reactions as US joins Israel’s war and attacks three Iranian nuclear sites after days of speculation over US involvement in the conflict.
ICAN The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons says the US military strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities were “senseless and reckless”.
“By joining Israel’s attack on Iran, the US is also breaking international law. Military action against Iran is not the way to resolve concerns over Tehran’s nuclear programme,” ICAN’s executive director Melissa Parke said in a statement.
“Given that US intelligence agencies assess Iran is not pursuing nuclear weapons, this is a senseless and reckless act that could undermine international efforts to prevent the further proliferation of nuclear weapons.”
Geneva-based ICAN won the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize for its key role in drafting the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, which took effect in 2021. Some 69 countries have ratified it to date, four more have directly acceded to the treaty, and another 25 have signed it, although none of the nuclear weapons states have come on board.
Australia “We have been clear that Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile program has been a threat to international peace and security,” the Australian government spokesperson said.
“We note the US President’s statement that now is the time for peace,” he said, adding that the security situation in the region is “highly volatile”.
“We continue to call for de-escalation, dialogue and diplomacy,” the spokesperson said.
New Zealand “We acknowledge developments in the last 24 hours, including President Trump’s announcement of US strikes on nuclear facilities in Iran,” Foreign Minister Winston Peters said.
“Ongoing military action in the Middle East is extremely worrying, and it is critical further escalation is avoided,” he said, adding that New Zealand “strongly supports efforts towards diplomacy”.
“We urge all parties to return to talks. Diplomacy will deliver a more enduring resolution than further military action.”
Mexico “The ministry urgently calls for diplomatic dialogue for peace between the parties involved in the Middle East conflict, Mexico’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on their X account.
“In keeping with our constitutional principles of foreign policy and our country’s pacifist conviction, we reiterate our call to de-escalate tensions in the region,” the ministry said.
“The restoration of peaceful coexistence among the states of the region is the highest priority.”
Venezuela “Venezuela Condemns US Military Aggression Against Iran and Demands an Immediate Cessation of Hostilities,” Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yvan Gil said in a Telegram post.
“The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela firmly and categorically condemns the bombing carried out by the United States military, at the request of the State of Israel, against nuclear facilities in the Islamic Republic of Iran, including the Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan complexes,” he said.
Cuba [quote]Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel strongly condemned the US bombing, saying it constituted a “dangerous escalation” and a serious violation of the UN Charter.
He added that it “plunges humanity into a crisis with irreversible consequences”.
Chile Chilean President Gabriel Boric also called the US action illegal.
“Chile condemns this US attack,” he wrote on X. “Having power does not authorise you to use it in violation of the rules that we as humanity have given ourselves. Even if you are the United States.”
A roundup of reactions as US joins Israel’s war and attacks three Iranian nuclear sites after days of speculation over US involvement in the conflict.
The United States has bombed three nuclear sites in Iran, further escalating the war between Israel and Iran.
President Donald Trump late on Saturday said the US attacks “obliterated” the Iranian facilities in Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz as he threatened more strikes to eliminate the country’s nuclear enrichment capacity if Tehran “does not make peace”.
Iran acknowledged the attacks, saying its personnel working at the nuclear sites were evacuated before the attacks.
The US strikes came more than a week after Israel launched a military campaign against Iran, which retaliated with missile attacks, resulting in hundreds of casualties on both sides.
Here are some key reactions from around the world following the US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites:
Iran In his first public remarks after the strikes, Iranian Minister of Foreign Affairs Abbas Araghchi accused the US of breaching international law.
"The United States, a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, has committed a grave violation of the UN Charter, international law and the NPT [Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty] by attacking Iran’s peaceful nuclear installations,” Araghchi said in a social media post.
“The events this morning [Sunday] are outrageous and will have everlasting consequences. Each and every member of the UN must be alarmed over this extremely dangerous, lawless and criminal behavior.”
He added that Iran “reserves all options to defend its sovereignty, interest, and people”.
Israel “Congratulations, President Trump. Your bold decision to target Iran’s nuclear facilities with the awesome and righteous might of the United States will change history,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a televised statement.
“History will record that President Trump acted to deny the world’s most dangerous regime the world’s most dangerous weapons.”
United Nations “I am gravely alarmed by the use of force by the United States against Iran today,” Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said.
“This is a dangerous escalation in a region already on the edge – and a direct threat to international peace and security”, he said, adding that there is a “growing risk” that this conflict could “rapidly get out of control – with catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world”.
Guterres called on member states to “de-escalate” and “uphold their obligations under the UN Charter and other rules of international law”.
“At this perilous hour, it is critical to avoid a spiral of chaos. There is no military solution. The only path forward is diplomacy. The only hope is peace.”
Hamas In a statement, the Palestinian armed group said it condemned “in the strongest terms the brazen aggression of the United States against the territory and sovereignty of Iran”.
“The US aggression against Iran is a dangerous escalation, blind obedience to the occupiers’ agenda, and a clear violation of international law,” Hamas said.
“We declare our solidarity with Iran, its leadership, and its people, and we have full confidence in Iran’s ability to defend its sovereignty.”
Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia expressed its “great concern” following the US attacks, according to a statement by the foreign ministry on X.
“The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is following with great concern the developments in the sisterly Islamic Republic of Iran, represented by the targeting of Iranian nuclear facilities by the United States of America,” the Saudi foreign ministry posted on X.
The kingdom “expresses the need to exert all efforts to exercise restraint, de-escalate, and avoid escalation”, calling on the international community to boost efforts in such “highly sensitive circumstances” to reach a political solution to end the crisis.
Qatar Qatar says it fears serious repercussions after the US air strikes on nuclear facilities in Iran.
The foreign ministry “warns that the current dangerous escalation in the region may lead to catastrophic consequences at both the regional and international levels,” a statement said.
"It calls on all parties to exercise wisdom, restraint, and to avoid further escalation.”
Oman Oman, which was mediating nuclear talks between the US and Iran, has strongly condemned the US strikes.
The Gulf state “expresses deep concern, denunciation and condemnation of the escalation resulting from the direct air strikes launched by the United States on sites in the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the official Oman News Agency said.
Iraq Iraq has warned the US attacks on its neighbour Iran’s nuclear facilities threaten peace and stability in the Middle East.
“This military escalation constitutes a grave threat to peace and security in the Middle East and poses serious risks to regional stability,” government spokesperson Basim Alawadi said.
Russia The deputy head of President Vladimir Putin’s Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, said several nations would be ready to provide Iran with nuclear weapons. He did not say which countries, but added the US attack caused minimal damage and would not stop Tehran from pursuing nuclear weapons.
Russia’s foreign ministry said it strongly condemns the US attacks on Iran.
“The irresponsible decision to subject the territory of a sovereign state to missile and bomb attacks, whatever the arguments it may be presented with, flagrantly violates international law, the Charter of the United Nations and the resolutions of the United Nations Security Council,” the ministry said in its statement.
China The foreign ministry said it “strongly condemns” US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, that “seriously violate the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and international law, and have exacerbated tensions in the Middle East”.
“China calls on the parties to the conflict, Israel in particular, to reach a ceasefire as soon as possible, ensure the safety of civilians, and start dialogue and negotiation,” the ministry said on X.
“China stands ready to work with the international community to pool efforts together and uphold justice, and work for restoring peace and stability in the Middle East,” it added.
United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer urged Iran to return to the negotiating table and said that stability in the region remained a priority, according to a statement from Downing Street.
“Iran’s nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security. Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon and the US has taken action to alleviate that threat,” Starmer said in a statement.
European Union The EU’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has called for de-escalation and a return to negotiations.
“I urge all sides to step back, return to the negotiating table and prevent further escalation,” Kallas wrote on X, adding Iran must not be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon and that EU foreign ministers will discuss the situation on Monday.
France France’s Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot has expressed concern and urged “the parties to exercise restraint to avoid any escalation likely to lead to an extension of the conflict”.
In a statement on X, he added that France was “convinced that a lasting solution to this issue requires a negotiated solution within the framework of the Non-Proliferation Treaty”.
Germany Chancellor Frederick Merz has called on Iran to immediately re-enter nuclear talks with the US so there can be a diplomatic solution, according to government spokesperson.
“The Chancellor and security cabinet ministers will coordinate closely with their European Union and US partners throughout the day,” spokesman Stefan Kornelius said in a statement.
Italy “Now we hope that, after this attack, which caused massive damage to nuclear weapons production and posed a threat to the entire region, a de-escalation can begin and Iran can sit down at the negotiating table,” Italy’s Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani told state broadcaster RAI.

Switzerland Switzerland has urged all parties to exercise maximum restraint and immediately return to diplomacy, after the United States joined Israel’s war with Tehran by striking Iranian nuclear sites.
US Democrats The top Democrat in the House of Representatives accused Trump of pushing the country towards war.
“President Trump misled the country about his intentions, failed to seek congressional authorization for the use of military force and risks American entanglement in a potentially disastrous war in the Middle East,” Congressman Hakeem Jeffries said in a statement.
“Donald Trump shoulders complete and total responsibility for any adverse consequences that flow from his unilateral military action.”
US groups CAIR and AIPAC The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a US Muslim rights group, said the US attack is an “illegal and unjustified” act of war that comes under pressure from the “out-of-control” Israeli government, and despite the longstanding conclusion of the US intelligence that Iran was not building a nuclear weapon.
On the other hand, the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the powerful pro-Israel group in the US, praised the strikes ordered by Trump and said the US “must now work with our allies to protect our troops and regional interests against Iranian attacks”.
Japan Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba told reporters that it is crucial that there is a quick de-escalation of the conflict.
“We are closely monitoring the situation there with grave concern,” he said.
He knkws his ethnic base only support him gof being their horse in the race .
