The commander of the Ilorin zonal command of EFCC, Michael Nzekwe, should tell us his salary then how much he is paying for his house rent, children school fee, type of cars he's driving to mention few.

Any affiliation with IPOB is condemnable, the DSS should use some speed and effort to arrest the dreaded herdsmen terrorizing defenseless citizens in Benue and the southern part of the country.

Why has the FG failed to arrest or prosecute a single bandit?

Same country, categorized citizens!
Who told you they don't arrest them? Or you are expecting the Nigerian media to come and tell you everything that happens all over the country?

Well, I can reliably inform you that many of these bandits are in the custody of the security forces. Be that as it may, much more needs to be done to proactively secure vulnerable communities, but the narrative that there is no arrest or prosecution against bandits is false. I witnessed one myself, which never made the media.

For goodnesses sake those people are Federal capital territory residents who saw clearly the irregularities that mered the 2023 election and decided to lawfully seek redres.... Who are you then to question the their resolve
I'm not arguing, I'm only sharing a little knowledge. I haven't questioned their resolve, nor did i say their litigation isn't justifiable (in principle at least). In fact, it is good for citizens to challenge matters in Court. But when it comes to this particular matter the law is clear on who can come to court on electoral issues, which Court can grant the reliefs sought, and so on.

Well let's see if I'll be proven wrong.

There is no way they will get that judgment. it is rife with procedural irregularities.

1. Simply claiming to represent FCT residents who are not a legal entity will get that case struck out

2. The High Court has no jurisdiction over presidential elections

3. The Chief Justice of the Federation is not a proper party in this case

Those people are very nasty. I won't even advise my worst enemy to marry them or do business with them.

They usually think they are smarter than others and always try to play faster than their shadow. They are not a people to be trusted. Always watch your back be it in business or marriage. They can go all the way to do evil.

If not for the Igbo factor, there are so many things I would have said here.

Are you aware of what is called emerging new facts

INEC is bound by the Electoral law and it's election guidelines to transmit results electronically. The INEC chairman made that point clear severally at different foras that the results of the 2023 general election, i.e polling units results will be transmitted electronically to the IREV real time on the election day
Which part of th Electoral Act says so?

Too many epistles!
Bottom line is that He has been admonishing his supporters right from the time he decided to become president and anyone who isn't as politically affiliated as you sound would know better!
Whether he said it occasionally or frequently doesn't take away the fact that he has been consistent about seeking for calm and civility while contesting his case through legal means!
That for me is fair enough!
If you choose to see it the other way,that's your problem and obviously your entitled opinion!
Lol. Oh but 3 posts ago I already told you its okay, we don't need to agree, after all neither you nor Obi are doing me. I thought you were planning to argue forever. cheesy

Madam de didn't snub Nigeria, he snubbed Arise TV and it looks like the reporter has pretty woman complex so she took it very personally. Eya my dia.

But this makes me remember that year Mikel Obi reportedly snubbed Tuface in a nightclub in London. Baba came back to nigerian and sang "Only Me" cheesy

Did he or did he not admonish his supporters to be civil?
Whether deficient or not is not the matter that you had stated abintio!
You had initially made it sound like he had never called out his supporters before or he was doing so of recent but when shown evidence,you prevaricate by insinuating such admonition is not sufficient!
The problem with you lots is that nothing he does seems good enough because you have allowed your political affiliations to cloud your sense of judgement hence your frequent criticism of him!
Simple!
It's now he knows he doesn't accept those behaviours.

Something you would have denounced emphatically when they were going after people aggressively. Unfortunately, he probably thought it was helping his cause.
The above is the text of my original statement, word for word, with emphasis on the words that I thought should have made the meaning clear.

This is his first genuine (emphatical) denunciation of the abusive conduct, and it is marked by specific reference to the particular individuals insulted as opposed to generic, amorphous statements meant only to exculpate himself.

So as you can see, if you choose to see, there is no such shift in my position. As for political affiliation, I have none except a lose admiration for Omoyele Sowore. Maybe your fierce defense of Obi in all matters even when he is clearly wrong is due to your "political affiliation" which is why you may think others are like you.

Well you got that wrong.

Whether common or not...the question is has he called out His supporters on social media to be civil and calm? Yes or No!
If yes then why blaming him for the expression of opinion of others!
Everyone has a right to express their opinion as they deem fit!
You cannot verbally attack someone on social media and also decide or determine how the person should react!
In his little way,he has tried to ask his supporters to maintain calm despite vile attacks aimed at them and the character of Obi!
What else do you want him to do?
I literally explained how his response was deficient and what he was expected to do. If you don't agree, that's fine. We don't have to agree since, obviously, I have nothing to gain or lose from Obi calling his supporters to order. Evidently, it is he who has it all to gain or lose.

it's also laughable that you are attempting to phrase the issue as people responding when being attacked. Are you an honest person?

Who did Toyin Abraham insult to trigger the attacks on her person and livelihood?
Who did Seyi Law insult?
Who did Joke Silva insult?

So quick to forget the issues eh?

Rhetorics is usual.. am actually reflecting on ur previous statement about obi not the obidients. Moreover you guys also insult as well so dont make urself look like a saint on this issue.

Tinubu has not made any statement in regards to the tribal wars u guys started in lagos i guess he is very comfortable with it or should i say that is one of his strategies. Ffk and bayo onanuga can testify to ur tribal wars
Who is "you guys"? What is my business with Tinubu, FFK, or Bayo Onanuga??

What does any of this have to do with the fact that Peter Obi has finally denounced the misbehaviour reasonable Nigerians have been complaining about - but now that it really doesn't matter anymore?

if you can't point out where he has ever encouraged any act of insult or violence then you are a very dangerous human being, who deserves nothing but bad luck in life.
Where did I say he encouraged any act of insult or violence? I said he didn't denounce them. If not denouncing them translates to tacit encouragement, then you have your answer.

Everyone is quick to condemn the actions of the OBIdient but let me ask what did Pastor Adeboye do?

Is his actions and talks a noble one that will encourage true democracy in Nigeria?

Why is it that no one is talking about the action/talk that prompted the actions of the OBIdient?
We have too many churches in Nigeria but we don’t have righteous people.
Sir, as you can clearly see, your oga, Obi has denounced your ways so go and ask him these questions since he too is of the view that Obidients who insult people are unruly and do not represent him.

If you were observant and monitored his posts on twitter rather than swallowing what you read here,he has always made emphasis on the need for his supporters to be civil and apply decorum in their communication on social media!
This is one of the reasons why he refused to take the popular stance of civil unrest and went with the legitimate path by challenging the electoral process at the tribunal!
Come off it! Once in a while casual statements about decorum but his inner circle like Aisha Yesufu kept doing it? Does that not point to eye service?? What was expected is when the supporters go after a particular person like Toyin Abraham, just for example, you come out with a direct statement on the issue. Not a casual generic statement once in three months.

How does insult help someone? Does that make any sense to u
But Obidients were insulting people all over in the name of Peter Obi - so if insulting people couldn't help obi, then does that make the abusive Obidients senseless?

It's now he knows he doesn't accept those behaviours.

Something you would have denounced emphatically when they were going after people aggressively. Unfortunately, he probably thought it was helping his cause.

and just look at the deceitful statement:

The use of subterfuge by people masquerading as Obidients to abuse and insult eminent personalities like Most Reverend Pastor Enoch Adeboye or anyone else is most unacceptable
Even lying that those insulting others are not Obidients instead of owning up to the act, forgetting that much earlier he had already endorsed them as his followers when he claimed that Obidients insult because they are angry.

He took me to First City Hospital, Lekki, where Dr Tina Clement, a member of the church attended to me, ran some tests, gave me drugs and sent the results to him.

"When the doctor asked what happened to me, Bishop told me to tell her I was raped by my friend, and he was with me throughout the tests," she said.

Everyone is applauding this but privatisation was a stick used to beat Atiku in the elections. Does that mean the average Nigerian does not understand what privatisation means? Just as they don't fully comprehend subsidies? Unfortunately, Nigerians are just as loud as they are ignorant. In fact, I dare say, the more ignorant one is in this country, the more confident they are in airing their views!

The should investigate politicians and their children. Shey it’s a politician’s son that bought a mansion in London worth $11m? Same person that some people consider their saviour. The house was even centre of Nigeria’s biggest corruption probe.
I keep wondering, how is this particular fact relevant? The house was subject to an investigation, based on corruption claims against its owner. The probe has subsided. Why should any other person not buy it?

Even if it had been seized, the government would simply have auctioned it off to a buyer. So why is this an issue?
