All talk.....

Madam, start setting examples like Aloma Mukhtar, fire erring Judges.

What power does a CJN have to fire a judge? This kind of talk is not expected from you sir.

papyjaypaul:
It's inappropriate communication because the lecturer is in a position of authority.

This does not apply to university settings where everyone is an adult. At most, most universities will simply ask that Lecturer-student relationships be declared to the relevant supervisory bodies. That's all. Even using common sense you should know that what you attached doesn't apply here.

EmperorIsaac:
Child Labor (as defined by the International Labor Organization).

That's not child Labour as defined by the ILO. The ILO accommodates Labour for children above 12.

Looking at the way things are going, Natasha would be recalled.

One thing in life is, no matter your wealth, your rank or position in life. Never overestimate yourself, and never underestimate your competitors.

And all this over seating arrangement...Because you did not like where your seat was...now you will not have a seat at all.

Cmanforall:
This is just it!

Maybe the money they make is affecting some of them. I wish there'd be acoach who will come with so much discipline for the Super Eagles players. Even make strict controversial rules, such as no dreadlocks for anyone who wants to play, or no coloured hair




There's pride in that team, and possibly cliques.

Most of the players earn more than the coach, and the coach Milan also be collecting tips from them. This may make it difficult to really control them. A no nonsense coach is what Nigeria needs. Not one who can be influenced by money to feature players.
Nigeria needs a coach who can be mean to ask players not to dye their hairs, if they want to be in the team. Discipline is needed!

This particular coach can't be collecting tips from these boys. He was a former player and has coached in many places. He is a big name in his own right. Moreover, he as a European and such ymcukture will be strange to him.
And it's not about hairstyle either. I'm sure you will agree that none of these boys has a hairstyle as crazy as Taribo West. What they lack is something that must be instilled in you from a very young age and it can neither be taught nor instilled into an adult.

Drive comes from a strong sense of self esteem and purpose. A constant desire to be better because you have a higher purpose.

You either have it or you don't.

There is a lot of talent in that team but so little drive. Osimhen actually wants to be great but most of the others are just happy enough to wear the super eagles jersey.

AlabiKILLER2023:
Eagles are out of it

Ordinary Zimbabwe outperformed them

Sham !!!


Tinubus body odour is real


South Africa deserves to qualify

Zimbabwe outperformed who? You guys talk a lot of nonsense on this site. Nigeria clearly outplayed Zimbabwe for the entire game, but lost concentration at the end.

We created numerous chances but lacked the finishing edge.

Parser:
Welldone Osimhen. It's so unfortunate our finishers found themselves in this era.

Finishers? As in more than one? Please who are they?

Apcshit:
Very useless first half

I blame the coach. By now he ought to have realized that Chukwueze shouldnt even be in his sqaud let alone starting. His is a playground player not a serious professional.

Secondly, the Zimbabweans are an attacking team. Thus game calls for a second deep lying midfielder like Onyedika.

prinsam30:
Simon chukwueze and iwobi are not in this game at all

Iwobi is not in this game?? You dont deserve to watch football.

mohbadliveson:
See Onanuga oo. Criticizing Obasanjo's government but now people can't criticize Tinubu

Dont be silly. He didnt say dont criticize. He said to do so reasonably

floss:
For Fubara To checkmate Wike is very easy, because wike has played all his cards nothing new is coming out anymore

The only thing Fubara will do now is go privately and see president Tinubu, swear his allegiance to him so that his reelection will be easy and he enjoys federal backing.

This will frustrate wike for another 6 years… because when the person you’re fighting is also backed by your boss, your chances of winning is cutoff.


Fubara being with Tinubu will put more fear in wike politically and become obedient because Fubara has all wikes files that will implicate wike while he was governor, and this will be the biggest file Tinubu will have against wike to make him obedient forever…


Wike only exposed all his cards using court and state Assembly…


Once Fubara makes this move, wike relevance is cut, wike might not return as minister in 2027 because he has nothing to offer Tinubu again.


Tinubu long plan of controlling Rivers politics will now be secured even after leaving office.



Tinubu needs to be studied in Nigerian schools, how he checkmates other politicians by playing their game and beating them in their game.

Assuming this is how it works...why would Tinubu trust Fubara? The oath Fubara swore to Wike did he keep it?

Nokio2:
Yes I
One is obsessed with power

Fixed.

Jerryhare:
I am still on my point, if he gave them what needed, they won't leave his Church. Nehemiah 13:1-13 made us to understand that Musicians/Choirs and Ushers are also entitled to Tithes, why are GOs against this?

Seems you don't get it. People like Wizkid and Tiwa Savage, for example, starting singing in Church. Can church give Wizkid and Tiwa the level of money and fame they've gotten from the world?

Jerryhare:
Music industry must be paid for service rendered!

What if anyone from music industry has no other livelihood than singing, playing instruments, etc, won't they feed their family

Why comment so boldly when you didn't watch the video? His point is about how artists start from Church and then use the platform church gave them to enter world music or to otherwise use it fr their own gain.

WINDSOW:
You dey mad!?
Can't you sir your fuckinng opinion without saying trash from your gutter?
Stupid!d boy

Did you tag me accidentally?

WINDSOW:
I think the yardstick isn't accurate.
It should also be measured alongside the number of matches played too.

For example:
If I play 10 matches and score a total of 57 goals compared to someone who played 38 matches and scored 63 goals, please who's is the GOAT 🐐?

So check and do the computation for yourself.


Spoiler alert: Osimhen has played less games.

Ken4Christ:
Osimhen will hit 100 goals for Nigeria if he is injury free and if Nigeria plays more games. He is still very young.

Meanwhile, where is the name of the most celebrated Kanu Nwankwo and J J Okocha on the list?

JJ had 15 goals so just below Musa. Always remember that he did this while running the midfield and no other midfielder is ahead of him in goals scored.

Edoblakky:
That guy lacks what it takes to play football. I thought Boniface would come in. The number 8 guy was extremely poor

You guys need to realize that he was doing exactly what the coach told him. In the last 20 minutes the game was about possession. He did it very well.

These people are not serious. I thought they would have said the entire state of emergency is wrong; rather, all I see here is that they want Wike to be sacked too.

Prof Benjamin Okaba, president of Ijaw National Congress, INC:

“We say it is hasty because the President has so much opportunity to leverage on the calls made by Nigerians from all quarters to call his minister, Nyesom Wike, to order.

“These are obvious facts flying all over the place, and I thought the President should have looked at all of these. I said it is lopsided—why will you leave Wike and sack Sim? The best thing is to remove everybody who played a role in this.

“Wike has to be sacked, and all the federal appointees from the state also have to be sacked because if you do not sack them, they will use their positions to perpetrate more crises and create more advantageous roles for themselves.

Tinubu prejudiced—Miakpor, retired Delta judge

“As it is now, the state of emergency seems to have given thumbs up for vaunting godfatherism because you could say that now that the president has gone this way, he has not mentioned the external influence, especially Wike, who is the origin of all these. This shows that he has a bias that he needs to cure.

“If the President wants to be viewed as fair, he should move Wike from where he is now; otherwise, Wike will not keep quiet. He will try to reach the administrator to influence him in one way or another.

Ekiyor, ex-IYC president reacts

Similarly, former president of Ijaw Youth Council, IYC, Dr. Chris Ekyor, asserted:

“The state of emergency came to me as a rude shock. It gives the impression that the president is answerable to his minister.

“Wike strategically orchestrated all the crises in Rivers State while the president watched. What are the contending issues of the Rivers State’s politics? The defection of 27 lawmakers, and what does the Electoral Act say about such a defection

latch:
Is there a use case for this? who asked for this? who needs it?

You are evaluating a National economic asset as if it is a tech product.

Wonderment!

Biggaboi:
Lol. Read what you wrote again and see how it sounds cos I feel it's typo error.
If the president proclaims and the Assembly ratified then what exactly is the point of having an Assembly if the president does not need their approval to do as he likes? Do you even know the duties of the national assembly?
This is democracy not military regime!

It's not about what you feel. That is exactly what the Constitution says. If the Assembly refuses to ratify, then the President's declaration will be null and void. Clearly, you've never opened the Constitution in your life... why are you arguing out of ignorance?

Biggaboi:
Mtcheeeew
Something that's already taken effect with or without the senate. This is just to give the whole farce a sense of legality and not to make Tinubu look foolish. We all know Tinubu will have his way with or without the senate who are just there to warm the chairs!

This is the normal procedure. The president proclaims, and the Assembly ratifies.

lawrenzooo:
If you read that speech by the president you can tell that it's partisan. The president never at any point blame the honorable members he only mentioned that both parties could not work together.

The president could have read riot act to the warning faction but I guess he was scared of wike and his boys.

There was nothing partisan about it. He literally said what I just said he said: that both parties have failed to obey his guidance.

But why is it that you can defend such blatant criminality? Question: was destroying the state house of assembly a crime? Is blowing up pipelines a crime?

All because lawmakers threatened you with impeachment, which is their legal right and duty?

How do you justify your support for all these?

Pierocash:
Stupid talk. So they are aware that the 27 dishonourable lawbreakers initiated impeachment proceedings against Fubara, but suddenly fail to be aware that this cartel and gang of 27 lawbreakers avoided budget presentation, and have been harassing Fubara and CJ , but they still turned around to blame Fubara. These guys have been hitting up the polity since the supreme Court injustice, yet tinubu and his men still turned around to still blame Fubara. Wicked , dishonest, and crooked elders

You're not making sense. In the text of Tinubu's speech that I read, he clearly said both sides have not abided by his counsel. However, it is obvious that the final trigger for federal intervention was the blowing up of pipelines (after already demolishing the state house of assembly building, in a most unprecedented assault on democracry), and that is taking a political dispute into the realm of criminality. So, are you arguing that both parties really share the same level of blame? You cannot be serious.

Hankulu:
Kante is finer than the woman.

Well either Kante doesn't agree or he doesn't care.

Offpoint1:
Was Wike not involve? Why didn't Tinubu punish him too?

Was the suspension a punishment or simply necessary for peace to reign?

Offpoint1:
2 children dey fight, papa decides to beat one and leave one.

Make we sidon, grab popcorn and observe how e go play out.

Thought it was both the governor and thr State Assembly that were suspended?

gidgiddy:
If you suspend the constitution, is it not the same constitution that the new administrator will follow? Tinubu suspended Fubara, and appointed some other guy, but that other guy must still follow the constitution, meaning the constitution was not suspended

That's why I said suspension of the Constitutional order and not suspension of the constitution.

What that means is simply, the Constitution as it applies to the existence of the Rivers state government does not apply. Thus, the idea that the president needs special powers to suspend the governor is misguided.

He can rule by decree when a state of emergency is declared. However, such decrees must still comply with other fundamental constitutional provisions.

gidgiddy:
To be frank, the law on state of emergency does not give the President the right to suspend the Governor and his deputy

Comments like these stem from ignorance on what it means to declare a State of emergency. By default, the declaration of a state of emergency is the suspension of the Constitutional order in the affected place. It brings the state directly under the control of the president. In effect, it is a civilian version of military rule.

SecretSpy666:
Godfatherism is a killer of democracy. Wike should be suspended too. The president is partial. Will military rule stop the crisis in Rivers?

You are seeing the suspension as a punishment. It is not. It is a solution to prevent the imminent break down of law and order. Suspending Wike will not achieve any result. In fact, an idle Wike is a bigger problem for everyone.

kettykin:
The answer is very simple, weakocracy. Government of the weak by the weak for the weak.
Nigeria is neither capitalist, communist, nor socialist. What it practices is Weakoconomy—an economy run by weak, uncreative parasites who hijack government power to enrich themselves while the truly hardworking and intelligent struggle against systemic sabotage. These leeches allocate oil wells to themselves, hoard national wealth, and then have the audacity to flaunt their stolen fortunes, mocking those who grind daily for success.

Dangote, for instance, has been handed monopoly after monopoly—on rice importation, cement production, and even fuel importation, courtesy of NNPC. Not because of exceptional business acumen, but because the system is rigged to create state-sponsored oligarchs who pretend that no billionaire can emerge without government blessings. Meanwhile, real entrepreneurs are crushed under policies designed to keep them from rising.

Can you share evidence of this?
