Politics / Re: Tinubu Breaks Silence On Amotekun , Says Amotekun Not Threat To National Unity by Smooyis(m): 4:16pm On Jan 22, 2020
Iamgrey5:
Tinubu is speaking from both sides of his mouth on this.

Summary of what he said:

He is not saying that Amotekun is bad but he is not saying the government is wrong either.

However, both of them cannot be right at the same time because the government's position on Amotekun about the legality of it.


Federal Government had the luxury of consulting with the state governments directly to understand their operations before they chose that position.


Thanks bros. He is just trying to be politically correct instead of hitting the nail on the head. Nigeria needs to be restructured. It was part of the Apc manifestos. I stand by regional autonomy. Enough of this failed experiment, and yes to true federalism shocked shocked shocked

For those who are talking about the constitutionality of Amotekun, pls consider this.... Is it not better to break the law in order to save lives, than to be a slave to the law and die at the end?

Why will an adult drink kerosine just because someone said so on nairaland?
I heard kerosene could be used to rub the surface while the victim drink plenty local palm oil. I have also read that one can chew lots of bitter cola as an antidote. The question is, is there anyone with verifiable evidence or experience of these methods shocked shocked shocked

Where was Wole Soyinka when Nnamdi Kanu and Sambo Dasuki's bail were ignored, where was he when Nnamdi Kanu's family house was being desecrated by the military?

Why is Soyinka even complaining against a government whose emergence he actively worked for?
The chicken has come home to roost and they've begun whipping up empathy.

I refuse to buy in and it is simple.
I won't weep for you when your house is on fire if you didn't weep for me when mine was.

No way,

Sowore should pay the price for inciting a revolution against the government of the day out of animosity for not making the ministerial list.
The APC made it clear that they were not going to run a Government of National Unity, so what is Sowere's grouse?

Is it also a coincidence that his call for revolution came after the ministerial list was released?
How come he didn't call for a revolution when the Python danced unchecked in the hinterlands of the SouthEast or speak up when innocent people were thrown into captivity without trial just for having a Biafran insignia on them?

We have better things like Allen Onyema and Air Peace to worry about and I find it rather paradoxical that our dear Professor has not made a comment on the ordeals of Allen Onyema.

Soyinka dines with the people he criticizes and laughs to their faces, accepts their awards and shows up for their invitations.
Visits their official residences and takes happy photographs with them. Worse even, he allows his children to serve under them.

Aside not being as literarily sound, this two-faced nature is one of the reasons he will never be half the man Chinua Achebe was.

Chinua Achebe made his stand on issues unequivocally clear without any hues of grey, he turned down National awards based on personal principles, he never fraternized with people he believed made the country worse off and most importantly, he spoke out irrespective of whose ox it was that was being gored.

Wole Soyinka may have the unmerited award, but Achebe is the laurel itself.

How can the same people who said they couldn't trust Nigeria in the hands of Atiku "the looter" and "Made in China" Obi now complain that Nigeria is finished under their Mr. Intergrity and his Professor of Law vice?

No way.
Lalasti.clala please tell them that we must get to our Next Level, nobody is jumping off this ship.
All this epistle is unnecessary. Respond to what he said and stop trying to fan the ember of tribal discord. Every one has both strength and weakness even your Mr Achebe. shocked shocked shocked

Politics / Re: Lagos Civil Servants To Get Above New Minimum Wage (Official Memo) by Smooyis(m): 10:23pm On Nov 27, 2019
NtoAkwaIbom:
Minimum wage.. We dont need increase in wages, we rather need a downward review of wages of the top earners.
Nigeria has a population of 220 million, of that number, less than 10million are employed by the govt directly.

Yet the increase in salary, will lead to an increase in foodstufs, housing, and tax, thereby rendering the increase useless, but making life worst for those without work or jobs..
In cameroon a bag of rice goes for 10-12thousand naira. (20-35 thousand cfa) the cost of living there is cheap and we are by far richer than them, yet the most of their population feed fine and do not complain of hunger.., with our salary of 30k minimum wage in Nigeria one can buy almost 3bags of rice there, but here in nigeria the moment minimum wage got increased, the cost of living all got increased as well and rice now cost more than 20+k.

Rather than increasing salary which we borrow money to pay, we need to find intelligent means, of reducing the gap between the rich and poor through review of salary and taxation on luxurious stufs

Because this increase in minimum wage will continue to plague us deeper into debt (currently owning 27trillion) and with our depleting oil reserves it will only be a matter of time before everything blows up in everyone's face.. Venezuela will be heaven compared to us
Don't be a pessimist, let's commend the lagos state government. Cost of living is high in a cosmopolitan city like Lagos. With high purchasing power comes increased demand for goods and services which is a catalyst for industrial growth. Employment opportunities will ultimately increase and it is a win - win for workers, traders, and the government who will rake in more revenue from taxes. shocked shocked

Thegamingorca:
She's a disgrace to all women fighting for the right of being acknowledged as human beings and not mops with oily pussies.

Davido go soon tire for punannni, all men always do; if not now then when she expires. Nah then she go know say she was stupid to have left school and become his trophy. Useless girl, for her mind her destiny and dream since infancy is to straff davido senseless everynight. That's why she now left school. Nonsense, even prince William's wife, the duchess of Cambridge, who will be william queen when he ascends the throne bin still go school. Chioma is A big disgrace to all bossladys

Even David knows the importance that's why he still went back and completed his education.

In this day and age, you ought to have self respect and a sense of self worth to atleast be independent if all hell breaks and not be associated with some superstar for the rest of his life. She should strive to be chioma the superstar or something nice too. What if davido dies tomorrow. Will she stupidly now go to school or continue his music career for him? How will she afford to give her son quality stardom life that he deserves assuming davido leaves her with nothing. Will she go and marry his father lol?

She had better be productive that way she would make Davido Chase her for the rest of her life for fear of loosing her to someone better.

Imagine the fear she must go through daily, knowing that davido may leave her. Mark my words, her son will call her a gold digger if she doesn't do something fast. Rubbish

Seeing her wear these fendi shoes makes me hate the fact that she is shamelessly flaunting davido's wealth. Something she herself will never buy for herself even if she has the money. Why can't she try to flaunt her own wealth. Shoes that will buy her entire father's household a to and fro trip to Dubai! It's not wise. Chioma pls go and finish school. Pls don't be a sheep or somebodys toilet paper because he's famous. Be a human being. Be you, chioma
I think you are being too harsh to her even though you are making a point. You don't know her future plans, and what challenges is still keeping her out of school for now. Some of the words you used are abusive, derogatory and obscene, and I feel she doesn't need that now. When we correct, let's do that with love. God bless. shocked shocked shocked

The Permanent Secretary said any agreement reached with the labour unions will be made public through government recognized communication channels.

He assured public servants in the State that the outcome of the minimum wage negotiation will represent their best interest.

Bamgboye reiterated that the governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu administration is committed to enhancing the welfare of staff.
