Without NETO alliance why not
If it can happen in Ukrainian
Attempted in turkey why not UK

You talk like it hasn't happened in history

America made this gun laws in the 1700s when coup were more frequent
What is NETO? Do you mean NATO?

Mention one Western country where a coup has happened in the last 100 years.

MEEVEET:
Most people don't understand why USA allow their citizens to hold guns

1) so that no leader can ever be a dictator

2) there would never be a military coup in American

3) America can never be conquered... Even if you defeat the army there are 300 million army to fight


It also a guarantee that
Is there any western nation where a military coup or dictatorship is possible, with or without guns? Can a military coup happen in the UK for example?
Politics › Re: Petrol Scarcity: NNPCL Bars Independent Marketers Amid Surging Prices by SmartyPants(m): 7:38am On Sep 05, 2024
The writer is an olodo.

After writing this:

He stated that the new price announced by the state-owned company is only binding on the NNPC retail outlets.

“You know, NNPC cannot fix the price for us. They fixed the price for their stations; they are now a limited company. They have their retail outlets. That new price is their internal arrangement. So, we are yet to have an ex-depot price or marketer’s price,” he explained.
To still write the below is infuriating!

Though the NNPC denied ordering Tuesday price increase, all its retail stations have adjusted to the new price, leaving Nigerians not knowing who to believe.

They could but their main job is to act as police in the employment of private organizations.... So they can do everything the police can do including bear arms and make arrests but they work for private enterprises.

MadPolitician:
That iyalaoshi nonsense is not known to the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria. The lady in question is an interloper that should be immediately arrested and prosecuted for extortion and grand theft. Imprisonment should follow as quickly as possible, since she has constituted herself into a grand menace to the society for a long time. I just can not understand how the so called financial capital of the country will be allowed to descend so low as to tolerate this sort of infamy. How a person not recognised by the constitution as a functionary of the state, will be going around collecting taxes that go directly to her personal purse is mind boggling.

Nigeria runs on a well documented constitution. Warts and all, that paper called the constitution dictates every constitutionally accepted position in the country. Again, the federal laws supersedes any petty local laws. I will repeat for emphasis; the federal laws supersedes any petty discriminatory edicts from the states. If some prehistoric tribal mutants want to enforce traditional edicts alien to the constitution just to satisfy their village ego, they should be told what to do; get yourself a brand new Republic and make the strange looking daughter of your tribal god the leader of all markets there. Your kettle of fish. But as long as Nigeria subsists, this galurous ladys corrupt intentions will always be challenged.
Talking nonsense boldly! cheesy The Constitution grants the power to make subsidiary legislation and if such legislation is appropriately made any position it creates so long as it does not contradict any explicit constitutional provision carries the full weight of the law.

He already knows how much his fuel will be sold.

Baba is only playing mind game with Nigerians.

He doesn't want Nigerians to put the blame on him when they see an unexpectedly high price of fuel.

Who increased the price of cement and other Dangote products?

Is it FEC?
Is there any time he has said it was the FEC that determined the price of cement? And doesn't the the FEC have a mouth to deny this statement he just made if it's false?

Be responsible in your commentary.

Agbadorian dingbats and their laughable attempts at sounding "smart".
Well, I wouldn't know anything about that, but I thought I should point out that the bolded is a double negative and hence loses the meaning you intend to convey - if one is merely attempting to sound smart, the smart need not be in quotes since the quotes alone would imply the same thing. That one is on the house. Cheers! cheesy

Idiot want to make it look like Taxes in Nigeria are being used for the right thing.
Make sure you share my previous post with all those your WhatsApp groups. Nigerians need to know where their tax is going.

The National Assembly secretly replaced the tax in VAT and by law the T now stands for Tinubu. This was done by Akpabio in August 2024.

By October they will change the second S in DSS to Seyi.

I don't know if I am missing something, he said they are proposing to reduce VAT on some items(food,transport,rent ) to zero and increasing VAT on everyother thing to 10%. If the above was what he said, how is any of the headline wrong?
The other headline made a false blanket statement. As he has explained, under the proposed regime, the average Nigerian will pay no VAT at all, as this is now reserved for luxury items. There, I have used my brain on your behalf since yours is a mere anatomical fixture. You're welcome.

Honestly.

Igbo is the largest tribe in Nigeria if not for political balkanization of indigenous Igbos in Nigeria through inhumane boundary adjustments and balkanization to dismantle Igbo influence and political power. Evil does not last forever anyway, time will settle all these issues, time
Stupid talk. But for the British all of this land you people are dragging would be firmly and squarely under the Benin Kingdom. How can what you never had be balkanized? The only balkanziation that was done here was the tearing apart of Bendel for political reasons.

Exactly. He has a second chance to redeem his image which starts first with character. Don't bother responding to those fellas who think life is all about talent. You go humble with time. I saw a comment on the internet that Conte played during the time of Finid George in 94. These people know themselves especially in Europe that's small. You that you are an African, the world is against you already so na sense you go use move around. If na so Messi and Ronaldo do, dem no go last this long and many players in the past have taken this line of Victor and we know how it ended. Conte may not want to deal with baggage of a player that talks anyhow and says rubbish to the press so it makes his job easy the lad wanted to go and he had the perfect excuse. This world is a small world, oyinbo are even bad at this thing, they will not tell you with their whole mouth why they don't want you. Conte said he was not playing Osimhen because the lad said he wanted to leave. God grant the lad discretion and sense. Drogba retired at Gala so if Osimhen like make he start to de blow mouth again.

Stop joining us in any rubbish. It is Ibo vs Yoruba m the stupid lady joined us into that nonsense like most fools do because they assume Edo state indigenes are yoruba which is very wrong and deceitful!!

WE ARE NOT YORUBA!!!! STOP THIS GENERALIZATION!!!
.EDO STATE IS NOT YORUBA STATE


The gods will descent on anyone joining us with Yoruba ,there by bringing insults to us that we don't warrant.

We have never in history of Nigeria since independence had any issues with Ibo tribe, so clearly this stupid woman is one of the numerous fools who call Edo state Yoruba state..

We are not Yoruba!!

Face Yoruba and leave us out of it!!

Thank you angry
The Biafra war began to fail from their invasion of the Midwest. On their retreat they brutalized indigenes of Edo in retaliation. Go and study this episode of history and some things will become clearer to you. While you may not have a grudge against someone that does not mean they don't have one against you!

And the fact that Abike Dabiri edited that video to present only her reply to the Yoruba men calling for Igbo children to be murdered is part of that abuse of office and misuse of gov office for bigotry and hate that we are talking about.

Abike is bias and unfit to work as a Government Official for united Nigeria with all its tribe and people.

She should work in her village meeting with her clan and tribe only.
A single individual called for this. Earlier you said he was Benin. Now you have stretched it to Yoruba. From man to men.
