Hmm complex case. Personally I don't think so. All she has to do is to leave the guy. Rape and domestic violence follow the same pattern

warripekin:
wrong statistics, over 60 million Nigerians are unemployed and and another 30 million Nigerians under employed. You need no survey to know this just look around.

ProfAmaben:
If he has a good lawyer, nothing would happen to him, it was a mistake. The main offense is not being with a valid ID card, RIP

Iyiataata92:
Coulombs law states tha like charges repel while unlike charges attract.
So two beauties just can't go together.

Simple

Oba may u live long. Amen

ThatFairGuy:
Oba gha to kpere. Isee
God bless Edo State for us.
Obaseki is done for

MetaPhysical:
Ogiso itself were chiefs sent from Ife.

Anything South of Benue took its root in Ife....including Igbo.

CrossRiver and Akwa should have been in Cameroon because they are geneticcally non-Ife. Everything else in the South had footprint in Ife.

Dont make me throw the history book ar you.

MetaPhysical:
Bini itself is Yoruba. Unless you want count Bini as foreigner.

vonxe:
Why are Yoruba always left out in Edo state?
Or are there no indigenous Yorubas in Edo State?

UDUJ:
Politics is a game of numbers and every state matters to any political party.

For the ruling APC, the more states they have to govern, the more power they enjoy.

Before Obaseki resigned from the APC in June this year, they were controlling 21 states while the opposition PDP had 15 states. With Obaseki now being a PDP member the PDP party now controls 16 states at least till September 19.

Another major reason is that Edo state was the only South-South state that APC won after the 2019 governorship elections in Nigeria.



The APC party strongly believes that as long as they hold Edo state they can penetrate and get the other south-south states. Since 2016 APC, apart from Edo state has not been able to get any other south-south state and in order to show that they are a national party with spread across all the geographical zones they have to ensure they win Edo state by all means, to help them enter the other oil rich states.

If APC fails to win the Edo state governorship election on September 19 that will mean the party has no single power and influence in the oil rich Niger Delta region.

Another reason why this is seen as a do or die is the power struggle between the former APC national chairman Adams Oshiomole and the Governor Godwin Obaseki.

For Oshiomole winning the governorship election for APC will be a big statement for him and it will enable him stamp his authority back as already people are blaming him for the state about to fall into the hands of the PDP party.

Also the governor decamping to a rival party has many people angry as they feel the governor has carried the mandate to another party and they will want it back.

The political turmoil in Edo state is even affecting the National APC body as well.

And in my own personal opinion I see this coming Edo state election as a possible look into how the year 2023 national presidential and legislative elections will be. Both parties are using this Edo state election as a litmus test. That's why they are taking it as a do or die affair.

I took particular interest in this election because it is my home state (though I have been away for so many years) and it saddens me to see the anarchy going on.

madridguy:
See wetin US mission tweet see wetin Nigeria paper they publish.

Nigeria media requires urgent intervention.

OkuFaba:

Advocate500:
If osimeni can cost that much , chukwueze should cost much more., my opinion any way.

Ishilove:
I don't even understand this your post. Are you upset because the seller threw the bag (you didn't even say where he/she threw it to), or because you can't see your niggas?? What is the correlation between not seeing your niggas and your annoying market experience?

Regex:
This is my first reasonable post on nairaland

The irony!

nairavsdollars:
very preposterous. arriving three hours for a 30 minutes local flight

FrLukas:
I am done here.

Hopefully others who read my rejoinder will know better than to think there's reason in your submission.

Please desist from quoting me again. Thanks for cooperation.

FrLukas:
I don't know why I'm arguing this point with you.


1. How where they forced?


2. How can you tell who was forced and who wasn't?


3. All the criminals in the nation's jails were forced by hunger to commit the crimes they committed, when are they going to be released too?


4. The crimes they committed when they were being "forced" to rape, kill and plunder, who's gonna pay for them?


5. If they were forced, how were they now able to leave of their own free will and surrender their arms?


6. And if they didn't lay down their arms but were arrested by the army, that means they didn't repent, they just were caught, right?


7. If you had a kid sister who was kidnapped and raped and impregnated by these animals, would you still stand up for them the way you are doing? (You don't have to rush to answer this, let it sink in very well).


It seems people have a skewed perception of what Justice means.


Once you say you're sorry, all is forgiven and forgotten. Meanwhile, some people have to live with the pain and scars you left for them.


Why don't you go and tell the widow whose husband was killed that the killers have repented and so she too should move on?


Why don't you go and tell the orphans, the fatherless, that the people responsible for their state in life has turned a new leaf and so all is well and wonderful with the world?


How about the parents of the Chibok girls who bade their daughters bye-bye as they went to school to get knowledge only to never see or hear from them ever again? Will you go and console those ones too?


Have you seen the grief on the face of Leah Sharibu's mama as she weeps for her daughter day and night, or you are just too focused on doing right by them terrorists that you haven't noticed?


I don't know how old you are bro, but for as long as you've lived in this world, have you ever heard any country on earth rehabilitating terrorists and releasing them back into their society?


Can you swear an oath with your life that these animals have really and truly repented? Can you vouch for them?

FrLukas:
You probably missed the video where one said he couldn't even count the number of people he had killed.

FrLukas:
"Repentant" Boko Haram terrorists.

So what happens to the crimes they've committed?

The children, the little girls they strapped bombs to?

The little girls they abducted, raped and impregnated?

What happens to Leah Sharibu now that we are rehabilitating terrorists?

How about innocent people they bombed and killed?

What of the soldiers who died in action just so that these men could be apprehended?

If Boko Haram terrorists can repent and be set free immediately, then all the prisoners in the country must be set free and allowed to go after undergoing a month program.

In case you aren't aware, Buhari and his handlers are totally mad.

Brachaa:
Are you a twerker or run a twerking business? Let me know in case I'm spoiling biz for you.

Its also not your biz how I focused on twerking. .

Now, let me be.

Brachaa:
Let me ask you. Are both good?

If you're twerking for your husband.. O great! But for some random guy who's not your hubby Nope.

Brachaa:
See what a useless life has caused you.

If they see those of us now who don't twerk going our way, theyll call us sister SU. Now see how a common boyfriend who prolly cant feed her let alone create a life wasted her in secs because of some trashy dance.

Life in Christ is the best.

The remaining surviving twekers should take a cue from this and turn a new leaf.

HITsquad:
Why do people underestimate police? Police has almost the same combat training as the military, especially mobile police unit... police go through More intelligence training compared to the military... Which is an advantage, everything no be by muscle.


It obviously wasn't in their line of duty to carry out the rescue but it doesn't mean they are less capable.

dmasterstone:
Please note: Counter terrorist police (CTU) they are also called Military police. Military police are specially trained like army. POLICE WITH RED CAP. they are even more active than some army.

beetown:
Wonderful talent. I'm so happy for him

That's how Nigeria would have ruined Efe's dream...after the Olympics in 2016, that was how they left him in Ughelli. Man had to source money to fund his own travel to the US...now see him.
Moral lesson: if you can, please leave Nigeria. Nothing grows here.

RealEzee:
bro that's just your thinking, China has the power to choose for themselves, the clause exempted the Army, that alone is huge to know they can choose their gold, na Dia e get k leg.

Esseite:
They would be in position to tell you when the value is commensurate, interest could run for years if they declare loss constantly.

Esseite:
This is the major problem here... they could pick your NNPC, oil wells, mining sites etc.. it's at their discretion with no holds barred.
