I don't suffer fools gladly, so I would say without due respect that you're quite stupid. How will NIN prevent any crime in a clueless and useless country like Nigeria where all institutions of government are incompetent?

And I don't want any of you fools to mention Internet fraud or any rubbish related to it. That's not the main problem Nigerians are dealing with.

How will your useless NIN help prevent banditry, kidnappings, Fulani herdsmen mass killings and Boko Haram terrorism? How exactly?

Finding sane people on nairaland and Nigeria at large is quite difficult than I thought.

I am not interested in the mud, you can have it to yourself.

Have a nice day.

Answering a question with another question is rude.
Those before him didn't do anything with NIN, we have heard.

Now tell us how does Pantami's removal/resignation affect the NIN registration that's already in progress?
Buhari can easily replace him with another Northern Muslim preferably from Katsina to continue.
So why does his resignation/removal based on his terrorism links jeopardize the NIN registration that is in progress already?

It's not rude, it's a polite way to respond to a question you know within yourself is self explanatory.

The question is not about replacing him, the question is 'Those before him didn't do 10% of what he did and doing and may likely not see another with a steel mind that can weather all these attacks we have seen for weeks now".

Getting this identity issue right means those who always comit various crimes with lack of a true national ID will find it difficult to operate.

Aren't you tired of "herdsmen killed this and that"

"Unknown gunmen did this and that"?

Let him finish this, he won't be there forever, then you can cut off his head for whatever 'crimes' you think he must have committed before getting picked as the NCC boss.

Last from me, how come we in Nigeria are so good with attacking those getting things right in Nigeria? You remember Bart Nnaji that was about to get the power issue right?

Do you know they did this same thing to him just to get him off the position?

Have you asked why?

If you don't see reason in what I have said, just let everyone hold his or her part of the stick.

Happy Sunday.

Low =?

twinskenny:
yes sir good morning

Nice one.

What's the capacity and how much sir?

kevoh:
Kindly explain in a few sentences, how Pantami's resignation/removal as minister will jeopardize the whole NIN registration process?

If you can tell me why those before him could not achieve anything close to a NID.

I guess you're waiting for an angelic Nigerian politician or nominee that does not exist.

twinskenny:
good day

I guess this is chandelier with a fan?

Just because he wants to make NIN compulsory?

This country is something else.

Gunayo:
what about the billions of naira that have been embezzled in this administration? The truth is that this is the most corrupt government so far in the history of of Nigeria.

This does not make sense.

AreaFada2:
Well, today Nigeria means Niger Area. Niger is from Nigro meaning Black.

Nigeria = Black Area. The British gave it to us. So no wonder even NEPA gives us blackness.

Countries like Ghana changed from Gold Coast, Upper Volta to Burkina Faso, Dahomey sought permission of Oba of Benin to rename their country Republic of Benin. But Giant of Africa could not change from Niggar area.

At least in Benin, there is Ivbiedo (plural for Edo people) or Edo that people call themselves. Nigeria has no such indigenous alternative.

At least there was nothing like Nigeria before it was named unlike the Igodomigodo.

Demzlent:
please when herdsmen are shooting carry camera go and film them mumu

I only engage people who can think and ask questions.

Nitah1:
So you mean yo say this villagers do not know their attackers?
Or what are you trying to say?

Even when they (Fulani's ) confess to the crimes did you ever see them behind bars?

If they know their attackers, the press won't say "alleged".

How come only herdsmen now comit crimes?
What happened to other criminals we have known and heard all these years? They are now believers?

Daum:
Edo language
Hausa people speak Hausa language

There are other people within the state called Edo, so you can't say Edo language knowing fully well that there are more than one language in Edo state IMHO.

AreaFada2:
The bolded is only partly correct. The Portuguese called it Beny by 1473. By 1553 when the British came they called it Benin. Actually it was coastal subjects in Delta who told the Portuguese that the overload/King of Ubini was in the interior. By the 1470s, the former tentative name Ubini had been replaced by Edo decades earlier. It was renamed Edo in 1440 by Oba Ewuare I to honour Edo, a brave executed servant who had saved his life as a prince because the tussle for the crown had turned deadly. Fact is Ubini or Ile-Ubini was never really accepted by Benin people as a name. It was a name outsiders called Igodomigodo.
Today, Urhobo call Benin Aka, Igbo call it Idu, etc. Although both have known good historical reasons to refer to Benin as Aka and Idu but Benin/Edo people do not call themselves such. Yoruba even call it Ado.

Idu was the founder of Edo/Benin nation. Igodomigodo was the real first name Edo/Benin called themselves. The Second self-given name (by Oba Ewuare I) was Edo. Ubini/Beny/Benin or whatever variations was NOT given to Igodo/Edo people by themselves and thus never used in Edo Language. There is no Ovbie Benin or Ovbie Bini. It is Ovbiedo. It was previously Ovbie Igodo. Since Benin became known worldwide as an Empire, for easy recognition sake, Benin is preferred, not Bini. None of the two is indigenous to Edo people anyway.

I hope this clarifies it better.

So the original name is Igodomigodo and outsiders came to give us a name which we gladly accepted?

Africans!

Who did this to us?

Goldeno:
This is just the common sense.


it is unfortunate that we share a country with morons.
this current crop are the most senseless sheeps, they live and Die by propaganda.


Farmers herders conflict has been since time immemorial.
This was our chance to solve it amicably once and for all because we have a Fulani president whose decision will be adhered to by both parties, but they've used propaganda to derail every process.

now every criminal is a Fulani, they've successfully created cover identity for criminals, making them impossible to apprehend.

all our security operatives will do is chase thin air since they won't find any evidence because they've been made to look at wrong directions.

Very sickening.

AreaFada2:
Actually Benins are called Edo. I still wonder why Edo was chosen as name of the State. May be it was politics, maybe calling it Benin State would imply Oba Benin as the only monarch.

People of Edo South do not call themselves Benin (Bini that is totally wrong by the way as the palace has made clear many times). Since at least 1440 Edo South people have called themselves Edo. Benin City it was was called Oredo.
The Europeans used Benin Kingdom or Benin Empire, Benin was for their convenience. In reality, Benin State should have been used because it covers far more people than people of Edo South. Before 1991, if you said "I am Edo or Ovbiedo", it meant you come from Edo South. Edo North and Central people didn't identify as Edo then. It might surprise many on Nairaland, as most were not born yet before 1991.

The other side of the coin is that knowingly or unknowingly, calling it Edo State actually narrows everyone to being from Edo South.

So you're saying the Europeans named it Benin? I don't get.

And what is the language called?

The press is causing more harm than good and also making the identities of most killers difficult to ascertaines with the way they mostly 'mask' perpetuators of violent act with their blanket branding.

Since it's very easy to tag every killings to herdsmen that are difficult to bring to book, other killers now go scot from under this banner.

You hardly see images or audios capturing these so called killers but they are always the first to be named.

I want to ask, who were carrying out all the killings prior to 2011- 2015?

Before then, most killings were never branded to be that of herdsmen, so what changed?

Did other killers suddenly repent or they migrated?

Daum:
The Benins are called the Edos. It is stated there

If they are called the Edos
What then is the language called?

Ohizfly:
English is the official language of the state. The major tribal languages spoken in the state are Edo language, Igarra, Etsako/Afemai, Esan and Okpamheri.Edo State is home to several ethnicities, among them the Edo , Okpe , Esan , Afemai/Etsako, Ora, Akoko-Edo, Igbanke,

So where do you put the Benins(Binis) or nothing like that in the state of Edo?

Buhari ,the source of all problems and a man of no solutions

You definitely don't understand the topic.

Where's the previous tweet?

He paid the price for tagging crime to color (black).

His fellow white skin proved him wrong.

Kondomatic:
You've a firearm on you, do you mind if I take that off you, for my own safety?




Just imagine if the officer nah Nigerian police

Imagine if the man with firearm was a 'black' man, would such a statement be made?

If a 'black man' without any weapon can be shot, just imagine what one with even a knife will face.

Chinny024:
Then,he should retire than to relegate to the pillars abeg!!!

Relegate?

Those big names that went back to their country to retire playing in their league all over the world also relegated?

Self hate is deadlier than virus.

shogsman:
What is this one saying,do you know the amount of endorsements he'll get in a league where he's the biggest player or you think he doesn't know what he's doing,he's got options even players that isn't as good as is weaker foot can still get some club in eastern Europe or Russia to sign them,he knows what he's doing

He clearly does not want to go to any unknown league, hence his decision to play out the season in Nigeria instead of going to mushroom leagues in the name of playing in Europe.

Chinny024:
From Grace to grass no be am abeg!!!

Did he tell you he's an upcoming player?

What is left in football that he has not achieved?

Played in Europa
Played in UCL
Played in nations cup
Played in world cup.

Please, what else?

I reject every spirit of backwardness in my life.

African mentality.

Numerouno94:
Musa is such a humble guy. God bless Musa. Wishing u all the best.
Anyways, he was able to pull this stunt cos his a millionaire, thus, the issue of non payment of salaries in the league won't b an issue to him.

Disclaimer: Don't try this if ur an upcoming footballer cos those evil state governors/club ow ers go kill u wit hunger by withholding ur salary nd allowances.


I see Musa paying the salaries of his team mates whenever they re being owed.

Kano pillars don't owe.

Some players in the league earn up to 1m per month.

Infact about 80% of the clubs don't owe.

How many Nigerians earn 500k per month? I mean graduates with all the certificates in the world?

Imagine police still showing their disdain for black skin even though this guy is also a security personnel and a high ranking army officer.

Seem they teach these American police how to be hostile towards anything related to Africa in their academies.

With the option of fine
They won't even spend 2 days in prison.

Highest fine is ₦1m

A flat roof MAY have serious issues with solar panels installation if the specifics are not followed. Solar panels are notorious in breaching the delicate dynamics of flat roof.

You MUST invest more to install the panels at an inclination (degree angle). See photo. If you install the panels flat bang on the roof as some would do on a pitch roof, this will cause water pooling and if you use less than 0.7mm sheets, there is a greater risk both your panels and roof may fail due to water pooling.

So make sure your contractors install at an angle just like the photo attached.

Noted. Thank you
