THE KEY WORD THERE IS SUSPECTED, NOT CONFIRMED AND THEY TAKE THE LAW INTO THEIR OWN HAND TO MURDER 27 PEOPLE ON PRESUMPTION OR SUSPECTING?




UNA DEY HEAR AM, HOW THEY CARRY OUT COLD BLOODED MURDER OF INNOCENT NIGERIANS.



NO COURT, NO TRIAL, NO EVIDENCE

Take a break from being silly young man. The report clearly says they opened fire first.

The abuse isnt necessary

I have come to realize that logical Christians tend to see religious extremists as dullards while the Atheists think both of them have lower IQ


History, Tech and Nature have being fair enough to us.

There are poor Theists and rich Theists, same way there are poor Atheists and rich Atheists

There are also highly intelligent Scientists/inventors that are Theists, We have such who are Atheists too

So, if u think you are any better than anyone just cause they think or believe differently, trust me, you're the dullest in the world

Evidently, there must be distinctions in thought processes. A man who declares a piece of wood his god is objectively a mor.on. But if he was raised to think that way, then we understand that he is not acting on the strength of his thinking capacity but on a conviction that was instilled in him when he was intellectually powerless to consciously accept or reject it. Thus, the question of whether one is dumb or not based on their beliefs may be assessed more objectively by asking how they came about said belief.

arantess:
sympathize with your unborn generations, onye mgbu. they really do have one hell of a forefather in you.

You're frothing at the lips now my dear. I suspect that which ails your fragile mind is of the congenital quality. Hence, my sympathy! Best wishes.

arantess:
even if angel Michael comes and hand you the names, you will not believe.

Well you're obviously engaging in an exercise in projective identification (look it up) as no matter what is presented to you, you are certain to believe it once it is against persons you dislike, and to disbelieve it once it is against those you like or in favour of those you don't. Not so? I sympathize with you, my dear.

He needs to mention names and drop verifying data. for instance who is this nephew who has been inserted into the hear tof Nigeria's petroleum industry??

auditor0471:
Chai…..these guys take us all for a fool, you are selling something below the cost price and you are saying it’s not subsidized…that government paid you the difference simply means government is paying subsidy which Tinubu openly without thinking said it’s gone.

Decision has consequences Tinubu Decision without proper planning on that swearing day brought us to this mess today

You don't have any understanding of the topic. Removing the subsidy paid to marketers has little bearing on why fuel is so expensive if the fuel is still being subsidized at source as we've been told. The issue is really that landing costs have gone up tremendously and that is a function of dollar costs. You may still say it is down to his policies but at least have some basic understanding.

Read my friend. You don't need to be there. You do however need to be recommended by a serving member of the force.

I remember his brothers launching a full-fledged media campaign against Godwin Emefiele, and I also read that this Smeagol-like CBN governor was assaulting his predecessor....


But look at him today, man is swiftly becoming the worst CBN governor, a failure who uses his authority to boost his allowances and advantages.

In the light of these serious allegations, many within the CBN have called for Governor Cardoso and his deputies to either affirm or deny the claims. The atmosphere at the bank is reportedly tense, with staff morale at an all-time low following the wave of sackings and what some describe as a “toxic” management style.

A very senior staff member at the bank’s headquarters told this reporter that there is currently palpable apprehension over a rumoured plan by the management to engage in another shakeup that would result in massive sacking or redeployment of staff (especially from head office) to the various branches in the states.

I know things are bad but I think it is obvious what is going on here. From the first bolded, if those within CBN have no idea about these claims can the claims be taken seriously? It seems as though there may be more smoke than fire here. From the second bolded, we can see who is creating the smoke and their obvious motive.

Hmm. Yet we won't see or even know which agencies remitted and which didn't remit, neither will we know what the money is used for.

You can find out. Submit a freedom of information request to the office of the Auditor General.

Tell us who owns the blending plant in Malta

Is there a blending plant in Malta?

Another nothing story. Who are the NNPC directors importing fuel??

emkz:
While it seems criticisms of the president are apt, certain facts must be cleared.

Presidential transportation worldwide is a serious security matter. In our case, air transport of the president is handled by the Nigerian Airforce. If the airforce says a jet is unfit to fly the president because it might have stayed in service longer than specified, hence a potential aviation threat, it is only fair that we listen to them. We do not need to like them.

Those suggesting that the president must fly commercial or use his personal vehicles (like Deji Adeyanju) are not aware of the potential security threats. A Nigerian head of state was assassinated in broad daylight in his official car, while another one was murdered for not taking their security serious.

The aircraft here does not belong to Tinubu. It belongs to the Federal Government. Once Tinubu leaves power, he won't take the jet with him. So those accusing Tinubu of purchasing a private jet for himself are being ludicrous.

Yesterday, Charly Boy lied that the president's official car, Cardilac Escalade is worth almost 1 billion naira. A simple internet search showed that the vehicle is about 250 million naira. Still expensive, why did Charly Boy have to lie? When Buhari exited power, he didn't leave with the Maybach. The vehicle was not his. The Cardilac does not belong to Tinubu. DSS handles his ground transportation. Why not question DSS for proposing that vehicle?

And for those who are just realizing, the Cardilac Escalade SUV had been in use since last year and sighted several times in the convoy, how come they are just seeing it? The vice president is driven in one of such vehicles. How come they have not seen it?

Anyway, Kenneth Okonkwo says people are dying of hunger and there is no fuel or electricity. It is not Tinubu's job to cultivate arable land nationwide. It is not Tinubu's job to provide buses to transport people within states. These are things state governors can easily undertake on their own, and even local governments. We have seen the Niger State governor buy such buses. Once the burden of transportation is removed, the issue of fuel price would not bother so many.

The fact is that the president is being blamed for policies, but all presidential candidates agreed that subsidy on petrol needed to be removed. Even the messianic pontiff said he'd remove it on day 1. Suddenly, Tinubu is being condemned for taking the decision to save us from economic doom. It didn't make sense that we were borrowing to pay subsidies. Also, the removal of the parallel trade of fx was to tackle the fx fraud that drained our resources.

This meant that increased allocation could be used for developmental purposes in the states. What do the state governors do instead? We find them doing Hajj subsidies and Ramadan feeding, purchasing vehicles for traditional rulers, buying wheelbarrows to turn their unemployed youth to mai-barrow in the markets, and stacking funds for elections they are not sure of living to partake in.

Dear governors, learn one basic thing: from what happened in Kano during the August riots, when people take to the streets, they'd target governors first and they can only move up the ladder once they have brought you down.

You still have time to work for your people and address the basic problems of food security and transportation within your state. We shall criticize the president for the things we must criticize him on.

You started well but as most who overspeak tend to do, you shot yourself in the foot. The argument that hard policies had to be taken to stave off impending doom is sorely undermined when members of the government indulge in excessive and avoidable spending such as procuring SUVs and new airplanes. Could he have procured a cheaper one? Could he have leased a plane for the time being - in view of the economic hardship that caused him to create other unfavorable policies? Is it only the masses who must make these sacrifices? These are the questions.

Smart girl. Wife material but u guys will not see it like that. You want the ones that will front and order rubbish. Sigh*

What exactly is wife material about going on a date to beg for money for food at home?

Yea i have never seen,and i am not ready to see biko

But you think little girls of 9 years should be given out in marriage. Do you think they are ready to see??

Ancient of Days in Nairaland forum, please help him to answer my question.


Tell me, what significant advancement has your cocaine-loving hero achieved for a year now?

Let's agree that Tinubu is a failure. I'm still interested in knowing what the remarkable thing is that Faye has achieved. I know Senegal very well so I'm interested.

OALandAgents:
You can't comprehend and I can't help you.

Be quiet my friend! You've been corrected by so many persons. Shut up and learn quietly.

OALandAgents:
I only state facts Obasanjo was at the very least in agreement with taking out rotational presidency from the constitution that was introduced at the start of his presidency.

Fact number 2: Obasanjo's government amended the 1999 constitution severally during his 8 years as president but never even attempted to add the rotational presidency clause to the 1999 constitution amendments.

Fact number 3: Obasanjo at the end of the his presidency did not give the presidential candidate ticket or VP ticket to an Igbo

Internet is your friend and re-read my original post and try to comprehend.

I read your original post and the only conclusion I could arrive at is that you are one heck of an ignorant dude. Imagine the lunacy of claiming Obasanjo introduced the 1999 Constitution. After being corrected instead of retracting the nonsense, you are changing mouth.

VULCAN:
You read but lack comprehension.

Didn't you see where it was clearly mentioned that the last two cargoes were not cleaned up so dirty fuel was brought in?

Smarty pants my arse.

I know you must be an adult with some form of education. This leaves me sorely perplexed at the idiocy you are displaying. Obviously, I am questioning what the offence is with his line of business vis a vis his political position, which is the thrust of the article. Try not to be stupid my dear boy.

Is virginity the only factor that determines good behaviour? There are "virgin criminals" and "virgin murderers". The dad should be concerned about raising a good daughter and not a virgin daughter.

Because raising a good virgin daughter is impossible?

Then after tracking, what next? A shootout?

KingOfTheDamned:
Yoruba people on this platform, please stop trying to create conflicts between us and the Igbos! I'm noticing a trend with paid bots on this website. It appears that because we often challenge you, some Yorubas are trying to impersonate us to attack the Igbos, while also creating accounts pretending to be Igbos to attack us.

But why are some Yoruba people acting this way? Why does your tribe invest so much in sowing division and causing conflicts between others? Why do you feel the need to manufacture hate between two tribes or to forcefully present yourselves in a good light?

There seems to be something deeply wrong with this behavior. Historically, we have never had issues with the Igbos; it is some Yorubas who have continually disrespected my people by claiming superiority and insisting that our Oba is subordinate to Yoruba kings.

Igbos, please do not fall for this. Any attacks you see toward your tribe are likely being carried out by Yoruba individuals paid to impersonate us. Thank you.

This sycophancy will take you absolutely nowhere. We Edos have no problems with other tribes but since the elections I've noticed most of our youth trying so hard to be accepted by Igbos and therefore joining in attacks against Yorubas. Let me tell you the truth: to the most Igbos the Edo are just another Yoruba tribe. I've lived in the east and it was said to my face.

Edos are known for being strong minded and independent, not selling themselves out for cheap acceptance. Retrace your steps.

maasoap:
What kind of advice do you think such person will give when it has been uncovered that his company is responsible for the importation of low quality fuel from Malta? You think such person will give advice or be okay with any advice that will promote local refining? That's where his conflict of interest comes in. He doesn't need to stop his business but may be he should opt out of the PECC

Does this apply only to petroleum or to other industries too?

CSTRR:
Conflict of interest.

You expect such a person not to use his proximity to presidential powers to frustrate any attempt at local refining?

Or you think tinubu is not aware?

Conflict of which interests? Is the PECC a public office or a mere advisory council? Is it not one's status as a businessman that qualifies them to be on the council? Should then abandon said business?

Dangote's allegation was that directors in the NNPC have interests in blending plants. That is what we want to hear about not random businessmen who have a right to have such interests.

ednut1:
But is this a crime?

I was reading through to see the offence committed o. Is there anything wrong with a businessman importing petrol provided he does it by the books?

Kukutenla:
Are you slow or you're acting slow?
Are you sure you have the facts of the case as you originally claimed?
The deal involved bribery to some high ranking govt officials then. Kingibe and Lukman's names were mentioned as part of those who got the bribes.
It was because there was no sitting President (since Yar'adua was sick) and I suspect the high ranking guys did not want to put their names in print that they pushed the document to the lady who was just a civil servant. She signed after collecting her own kickback.
The fact of the matter is that Nigeria entered into a deal with P&ID based on an MOU signed by the right people. It was the real contract that was signed by the wrong people obviously because of bribes given and taken.
I hope you understand now and you won't come and ask me silly questions again since you claim you have good knowledge of what happened

Like I said I have more facts than you do including facts of how the entire project never existed. But I won't raise those for now instead I will only dispel the trash you are peddling on the basis of your own ridiculous narrative.

Here we have a grown adult arguing that a deal procured by bribery and executed by the wrong persons in furtherance of said bribe is not fraud. For your information, an MOU is essentially a worthless piece of paper. And a contract signed by a person who has no authority to do so is a fraudulent piece of paper.

Have a little shame, friend!

Kukutenla:
Your brief left out that place where there was an out of court settlement for $850m in 2015 which Buhari failed to pay.
And the initial court award was $9.6bn not $11bn
Go and get your facts right.
The lady that was later mentioned was a director for legal in the ministry of petroleum. Like I told you, Nigeria was just lucky that the people who signed the P&ID deal had no legal right to if not, the incompetence of APC would have cost us badly

Can you even hear yourself. So it was an illegal deal from the off since you say it was not signed by the appropriate parties. So why on earth should Buhari have paid even 1 naira?? I don't just understand you people at all. What do you really want?
