I perceive he is eying the presidential sit in future

Thats the typical Nigerian mentality there - he is doing extraordinarily charitable works so you had to find the ulterior motive.

Not everyone is like the average nigerian.

I'm not attacking you though.

God1000:
they will vote for him

They won't. Senegalese love him but they're also highly educated and their presidents are always technocrats.

To show you they have totally gotten over you!

Only a person who is desperately into you needs to show you that they are over you.

Aboki only writes and speak English under duress. because already he has a matured, developed language to speak and to write with!

He has had a civilised administrative system before the whites ever thought of coming.

Aboki wore clothes at a time when the "noisy neighbors" were roaming around naked!

Aboki established the "biggest", most
sophisticated empire in west africa as far back as the 18th century.

Aboki, just like the English, French, Chinese could read and write in his own language as far back as the 14th century.

The architectural masterpiece of the Aboki was there for everyone as far back as 1423.

Aboki was never enslaved, nor sold to slavery or chained like an animal by any European or Caucasian race!

The Aboki people are the largest and most spread people in West Africa!

Aboki language is most widely spoken
language in West Africa, third most in Africa! Aboki language is so important!, that the British, American, German, French, and Chinese broadcasting all have it's service being aired!

The aboki was the richest in the 50's (Alhassan Dantata), richest in the 80's
(Maideribe), and richest in the 21st century (Dangote).

And these were what the whites observed before they decided bequeathing "ruling power" to the Aboki when they were leaving.


You think my calling northerners aboki you are slandering or mocking them? lol instead you are only disgracing yourself and exposing your ignorance of their Language... go get the translation and laugh at yourselves

I don't support anyone denigrating any tribal on the basis of ethnicity. But there are some facts which you have misrepresented.

The reason the British handed over power to the north was not because northerners were sophisticated. It was in fact, the opposite.

The British saw the northerners as less sophisticated and unambitious, allowing for proxy control. Having said that, that is the past.

The real question is why, with all you've claimed, do you people allow your masses to dwell in poverty??

Skyfly007:
No one size fits it all..I married a much younger girl and it has been the best decision of my life..Her analytical and thinking skills is higher than her age. So it all depends on the induvidual involved.

Of course it is inherently true that people may be different but im talking about trends and its clearly observable that younger girls at a certain age prefer their mates.

Ias they grow, the gap tolerance increases so im also specifically focusing on those below 24.

Absurd the way some people think

It's not entirely about the age. It's also about the age gap.

When younger girls date much older guys, they don't take the relationship serious. The same girl of 22 playing games with you will fall helplessly for a boy of 23.

I've always believed an older millennial, 29 and up, should never try to date a younger Gen Z. The differences in the generational way of thinking are stark.

It was obvious.

What Soludo said was that people who have laboured with APGA up until now should not let their labour go in vain by leaving the party after investing so much.

I saw that then and just shook my head at nairaland and nairalanders.

englishmart:
Take a close look at that guy's lips, marijuana has had its toll on it. The guys rral age isn't about 21, he's actually 23 and above.
The problem isn't age, the problem is, "Do they have any signed agreement pertaining the organ harvest intention?
If yes, Ekweremmadu will be released next week

Excellent submission but there is one missing point. The way English police work, he would never have been arrested if he had shown that signed agreement. And so far, his defence has not raised that argument. I strongly doubt that they have such a written agreement.

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Yeah mister...

Good girl

FERNANDEZISBACK:
I did.

Are you sure?

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Just like the ^{"wannabe redpillers"} will say..^{"he might have offended the lady which in turn provoked her action.."}

Why not create a good example for them by condemning the obviously wrong act?

okuta007:
technically that is punishment and a attestation of indictment ….

Quite the opposite. Technically, it is simply an administrative procedure that may be inconvenient but necessary due to the weight of the accusation against him.

You mean practically/virtual, it is punishment, and that may be but it is of the unavoidable and unintentional kind.

A person accused of a crime may be arrested and denied bail. That is technically not a punishment but an administrative procedure. It is virtually/practically a punishment of sorts since it inconveniences the detainee.

They are simply giving room for the investigation to run its course. And in this case, where his appointment was ceremonial, and designed for good publicity, don't you think his current travails achieve the opposite effect, leaving them with no choice?

Princeton92:
This is green mamba and venomous yes but it's a shy snake all the same so don't chicken yourself to frighten it!??

That is absolutely not a green mamba.

kelvin21887:
Are you sure? All these slithering creatures can be very harmful o

That one up there is absolutely harmless. In fact you'd want to have this one around as they eat rats.

Completely harmless garden snake.

okuta007:
whatever happens to the term “INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY”?


Has Ekweremadu been convicted yet of any wrong doing ? until he is convicted by a court of competent jurisdiction- the action taken by Lincoln University Is similar to one taken by an agbero academy - very emotional lacking rational basis and this is supposed to be a university whereby established logic, critical thinking and substantiated facts drive decision making ? … what a shame!

He was merely suspended from duty temporarily, which is perfectly normal.

MZEE01:
no

There is SmartMan to chose from, but you went for Smartypants

That explains how you reason.

You're a lunatic if you think I am interested in the gibberish you typed up there.

You made a totally incorrect statement about legal matters of which you have no knowledge.

Next time shut up about things you don't understand.

Period.

MZEE01:


Ekweremandu is already profiled as a untrustworthy personality till further notice.

The first measure to restore confidence in the of the law of a good country, is to respond by all curiosity and profile any criminal allegations against any individual to be automatically guilty until proven innocent.

But in Nigeria, you're innocent until proven guilty.

I love the UK.

Total nonsense.

Innocence until proven guilty is a firm tennet of Law in the UK and every country that practices the common law.

People going on about the age issue are missing the point. Age is irrelevant here in establishing an offense, though it could worsen it.

The fact is that the Ekweremadu's have been charged with exploitation under the Uk's Modern Slavery Act.

Now this Act criminalises acts of exploitation which explicitly include organ harvesting, and the age status of the victim is irrelevant.

See below, relevant portions of Sections 2 and 3 of the Act.

2. Human trafficking

(1)A person commits an offence if the person arranges or facilitates the travel of another person (“V”) with a view to V being exploited.
(2)It is irrelevant whether V consents to the travel (whether V is an adult or a child).


3. Meaning of exploitation

(1)For the purposes of section 2 a person is exploited only if one or more of the following subsections apply in relation to the person.


(4)The person is encouraged, required or expected to do anything—

(a)which involves the commission, by him or her or another person, of an offence under section 32 or 33 of the Human Tissue Act 2004 (prohibition of commercial dealings in organs and restrictions on use of live donors) as it has effect in England and Wales, or

DOTian:
We always like to pretend like we don't know how things go in this country because the person at the receiving end is either not one of us or don't agree with us.

If you have had a relation with kidney problems in Nigeria, and kidney problems are very common these days, you would have known that getting a donor most times depends on how much you want to pay, if the donor is not a family member.(

Obviously this guy was promised a huge sum to donate, they got to The UK and it was noticed that his kidneys can't match with hers, which means that he has to go back to Nigeria. Aware that he might not be paid as promised because he didn't donate as agreed and not sure of a good future in Nigeria after returning, he bolted away with all sorts of sickening tales.

This is the plausible pattern of events and although Ekweremmadu is not my favorite politician, this accusations of human trafficking and organs harvesting as far as I'm concerned, all look staged to dramatize the whole story for media effects.

Its well established by now, that the person who actually called the police was the doctor wjo refused to carry out the operation.

He also didnt bolt anywhere. Theh were arrested on their way to tturkey to attempt the operation there since it seemed impossible in the UK

Preshy222:
So where does Buratai come into this matter?

Sallau is a defence contractor alleged to be a front for Buratai.

BluntCrazeMan:
You're telling me what you would do with the information if you were the one seeking for it.
So, suit yourself.
..
As for me,, let me have the information first.
What I do with it is my wahalla.

I've given you the information buddy.

but wait aren't you the one that asked for exchange rates and said you wanted to "do the calculations"

okezuoemmanue:
He said over 100 million not 100 million dollars. It could be 100 million niara

So he was celebrating reducing 20 million USD to over 100 million naira (about 300k USD at the time)?

Pakute:
It was 2019 during Presidential debate with Kadaria.

No, this video in particular is from 2018 and he repeated it again in the debate.

BluntCrazeMan:
When was this video??
What was the Exchange Rate at that time??
At least,, let's do the calculations again

Why do this to yourself?

Peter Obi said he NEVER said it was 100 m but you want to calculate and do wuru wuru to the answer to find the 100 m valuation?

Rest.

But if you won't rest, the video is from 2018.

dway2life:
Did he steal the money? No!

He made an investment and it was worth ALMOST 100million as at that time...

Then why is it worth low now? I'll mention some factors

- Hisbah police destroying a lot of brewery investment till today

- Buhari happened.. naira/Dollar rate became outrageous

Therefore are you blaming obi who invested or you ought to blame Buhari and his brothers who continues to make Nigeria a nightmare..

Una go get sense sha!

This is not about whether he stole. It's about the fact that his camp has bandied about figures which have been refuted and now he is trying to evade the blame.

There's no issue of hisbah anything. his investment in the company never was valued at 100 million - at no point in time was this valuation reached. And he knows it.

So after all the abuse they've heaped on him, they're still running back to Wicked Wike?



My heart will be full of joy the day Wike leaves that party of backstabbers.

aribisala0:
"Academically deserving" is defined as ? A score on a test?
I am curious to hear how such a concept is to be defined and how a rating scale of deserving-ness is constructed
"Meritorious" is another interesting concept coming from a mindset that is made up and is just rationalizing or showing its working as it were .

JAMB Scores are no predictor of who will get a first class degree and a first class degree does not predict who will be the best architect

Yes, rightly or wrongly, the system relies on testing and examinations. You can argue about whether it is right to wrong but it is what it is until it is changed. So you can only argue that the entire system should change, not that one set of kids should simply be exempt from its requirements.

Kids go through 6 years of learning where the system says you have to make good grades to move on. You can't wait till the finish line ( common entrance/WAEC/ etc) to then challenge the system and substitute it with nothing at all.

Because it is not as though these kids with lower scores are being assessed by a different means so as to prove their true academic merit. They are being assessed in the same way just by a lower standard.

So at least for high performers we can point to their test scores as some proof of their merit. What can we point to for the others??

Grandemperor:
.......
You may be looking at both legitimacy and legality with a tinge of moral placement. The plaintiff believed his score were too good for him to be sacrificed on the alter of upgrading the cultural and educational entity of an ostensibly disadvantaged class in Medicine. They both retained places as medical students in California that same academic year. The plaint by the Caucasian was not about Affirmative Action per se, but his inalienable or fundamental rights(?) as a deserving student not to undeservedly sacrifice his place for another, personally.

There's no way affirmative action can exist without some sacrifice of a meritorious student. By definition, affirmative action grants awards to people not academically deserving of them, which means someone academically deserving will lose a place.

So if we rely on the supreme court judgment in that case, every student who can show that he was more deserving of a place than an affirmative action designee, will win their case.

So in that case, if enough white students had protested, they would have all been let in, and the black student, eventually would have been dropped.
