OK. Is that also the reason her money was confiscated that is not a proceed of the crime she is convicted for. Again, he could have sentenced her to six months rather than a year.
All that for exchanging money at a party and you don't see anything wrong because she is a serial offender.

Something is wrong with that judgment. I don't understand why you don't see it so.

ReubenE:
One year imprisonment with no option of fine for hawking naira plus forfeiture of the 3 million POS business money to Federal government - all for hawking naira.

Nigeria has happened to this woman despite being guilty of a petty offence.
I hope she had not argued previously with anyone that Nigeria is a good country for everyone.
I sincerely pity her cause something is wrong with that trial judge

helinues:
I doubt. Considering the rate of defection from the Pdp big wigs in South South, president Tinubu trying to make imprint to the region, there is no hope for Peter Obi in South South

And to those claiming those who are defecting dont have more than 1 vote, you better have a rethink as those politicians command the supporters on ground

All the fake story regarding president Tinubu and the Muslim Muslim ticket have been debunked. South South people have realised facts from fictions

You can believe anything u like but i put it to you that oil sold far below 13 pounds in 1999.

You can see the table below

004gist:
Obasanjo sold oil for 13 pounds in 2000. And slowly oil rose to 40 before he left..

Buhari period oil sold for 90+ to 100+ yet no savings.

Buhari partially removed subsidy yet no savings.


We are told subsidy takes large chunks of money. Subsidy has been removed 100 % where are the savings from subsidy saved?

004gist:
Then i ask again. How much was oil when obasanjo took over and how much is oil today?

Let me help u. Here are the budget benchmark over the years of APC. Where are all the excesses they got all this while that's what this post is about.

You can't school me on Economics...

004gist:
Oil that sold above 80 Dollars through out Buhari period

Check the price of oil now

Obasanjo sold oil from 13 to 30 dollar per barrel to save that and build the reserve to 45 billion and excess crude to 25 billion on top of that he paid debt of over 13 billion plus. Cleared our paris club and set Nigeria on road map afterwards


Only for this APC but to sink Nigeria low again

004gist:


People that were busy insulting Jonathan, insulting PDP.

16 years of PDP they called rot turn out 1m % better than them

Nigeria in safe hands... For 8 years couldn't ssve penny.

My Reforms are working.. Almost 4 years no koko.


PDP paid subsidy and were able to save.
APC removed subsidy in everything n couldn't save a penny rather they borrowed

malali:
The latest ECA balance proves beyond debate: this administration is racing Nigeria to poverty at breakneck speed.
In 2021, our Excess Crude Account had $72.4 million.
In 2025, it’s now a pitiful $473,000 — almost completely wiped out. (Mind you, it doesn't reflect that we have not paid oil subsidy and Forex subsidy in 2 years, where are the billions saved from this ?)
Add the mountain of reckless borrowings and it’s clear: Nigeria is being hollowed out financially right before our eyes.

ElevationD:
You are not a Senator. You are not a member of the National Assembly. You are not Gov. Ododo or Ex Gov Bello. You are not Senator Karimu and you are not one of the power brokers in Kogi state or the Senate. I do not think that you are from Kogi state either.

Having clarified the above, how did you arrive at your conclusion that Senator Natasha is going out of hand, or that she’s mentally unstable? Do you know what goes on between the warring parties? Do you have any information about their inner dealings? Can you claim to know more than her in a matter that she is deeply part of? Do you know Akpabio personally? If sh says Akpabio had a meeting, how can you dispute it? Do you know what she knows?

Stop drawing such conclusions or shooking your mouth in such matter that is bigger than you.

We all know that there is an allegation against Akpabio of sexual assault. We all know there is a suspension. We all know that there is an orchestrated plan by APC to remove her and replace with runaway Yaya Bello. We all know that APC does not want her to get to her home in Ihime. They failed. We all know that APC members in Kogi central labeled themselves as “constituents”, and organized to remove her. We all know that INEC notified Akpabio and her. We all know that she must fight back for her survival. We all saw the crowd of real constituents. Or did that crowd cause you and APC Kogi state some fear? We all know that Akpabio don buy market, which he knows. We also know that Akpabio is fighting for his own survival.

What we do not know, all of us, are their interpersonal discussions and moves. We do not know what truly happens underground. Let’s offer our contributions with insight and sense and not with such unnecessary verbal abuses.

Why is he looking for association of past losers to peach his tent with

Why can't most of this politicians grow their own organic base?

Ruke1989:
Delta state and river state in the south south has produced the most stupid ex governors in the history of Nigeria politics who use their state resources to fund federal elections that they are not contesting as president

1) Okowa borrowed 300 billion to fund atiku
2) Peter odili fund obj 2nd term hoping for a return favour
3) Ibori funded yaradua with delta money hoping he will be VP later on thru northern support
4) Amaechi now bittered used rivers state money to fund buhari 1st tenure hoping buhari will help him become president even fight his own brother
5) wike now bittered donated N500 million of rivers money to Sokoto state hoping tambuwa will help him win party primary.

Next elections their predecessors in delta and rivers will still make the same mistakes. They are fools

Kennitrust:
The whole Nigeria knows that Obi won the election but we're too helpless to help install sanity in this country.


The man who didn't win is very confused on what to do with power.

He just remembered what he did with power in Lagos and he suddenly tried to do it to whole country.

Taxing, taxing, taxing, with no improvement.

I spit on those who voted this man and those who are thinking of doing so again.

id4sho:
Obi shaked their foundation 🔥💯

atobs4real:
I don't want to guess the name of who is involved
May the Almighty God make us to be contempted with the little resources we have.

Oil [b]magnet [/b]🤑🤑🤑

osuofia2:
You are right. Kwankwaso, The G5 all did them PDP strong thing. Naturally the votes Obi got would have normally been PDP votes.
But the did has been done, it is left for them to make amend

FreedomfromtheT:
I personally know members of Deeper Life Bible Church who have been wearing jewelries consistently to church.
Every genuine minister of the gospel will always preach about the danger of watching evils in the tv, phones, social media and books.
Throwing away of tv set is extreme. You need to show evidence that pastor Kumuyi actually told members to throw away their tv sets.
Thank you.
I am proud of Nathaniel Bassey and pastor William Kumuyi.

lexy2014:
which man?

FreedomfromtheT:
My friend, some of pastor Kumuyi's past messages are on tape and can be downloaded on your iphone if you have any.
I requested for proof that pastor Kumuyi made the 'rules' you listed earlier. You have none only to simply jump to another.
May be you should try listening to him yourself instead of relying on hearsay.

FreedomfromtheT:
Did Pastor Kumuyi make those 'rules'you enumerated?
Please can you quote any spoken or written meesage where he made any of such?
Thank you.

prinsam30:
NEWS OF OVER A WEEK NOW, NAIRALAND U GUYS AR TOO SLOW IN POSTING RECENT NEWS

FreedomfromtheT:
Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi is still preaching against every form of sin including immorality on the tv, on phones, on social media and in the society.
He is one of the most consistent preachers in the world today.
You need to listen to him.
If you don't still agree because of your stereotyped mindset or hate, a lot of Nigerian Christians including American Christians do.
I am proud of pastor Kumuyi.
Thank you.

Wike, trade carefully with the malu guys. They hardly forgive.

AntiZikist:
So you don't know the FG can follow up on any court ruling up to the Supreme court ?

Why are you people so daft?

AntiZikist:
Is the Appeal court above the Supreme court?

You can not be selective in which judgement to abide to.

The supreme court has ruled that Kanu's case mist continue and that is final.

A young lady has shared her unfortunate experience of being scammed by someone she met on Tinder. The story highlights how trust and excitement can be manipulated by online predators.

It all started in 2021 when she matched with a man named Jude on Tinder. Their conversations were great, and they quickly transitioned to chatting on WhatsApp. Jude claimed he was based in the UK and mentioned he would be visiting Nigeria for Christmas. He even offered to bring her gifts and asked what she would like. She requested a bag and a dress, and Jude promised to deliver.

A few days later, he told her he had already shipped the items, even sending her a tracking link. To her surprise, the package seemed much more elaborate than she expected. Along with the bag and dress, the tracking information showed an iPhone 11 Pro Max, shoes, perfume, chocolates, and more. Jude explained that the package had been shipped to Abuja instead of Lagos, so she needed to arrange home delivery herself.

She called the courier service and opted for delivery by road, paying ₦12,500. However, things quickly became suspicious. The courier called back, claiming the package couldn't pass through the scanner due to its contents. Jude then revealed that he had placed £200 in cash in the package for her expenses—but also included some "drugs." Alarmed but still trusting him, she paid an additional ₦35,000 to "settle" the situation.

The next day, a supposed delivery rider contacted her, saying he was on his way with her package. Hours passed, and when she called him, he claimed the police had stopped him, searched the package, and confiscated it after finding drugs. The rider demanded more money to retrieve the package, claiming it was a federal crime.

At this point, the lady became suspicious. She asked for the officer's number and called, but the person on the line demanded ₦250,000 to release the package. Realizing the absurdity of the situation, she reached out to Jude—only to find that he had blocked her.

Reflecting on the incident, she described how the scam unraveled: "This idiot blocked me, and that was when it hit me—I had been scammed!"

Her story serves as a cautionary tale about being cautious with online relationships and transactions. Please, let’s all be careful out there.

The Bauchi State Government has dismissed allegations that it allocated N400 million in the 2025 budget to purchase six computers for the Office of the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), labelling the claim as “a lie from the pit of hell.”

Here are the indisputable facts: The proposed budget allocates N250 million for the procurement of IT infrastructure, which includes approximately 150 computers to be distributed across the SSG office, Bauchi Environmental Protection Agency, Hajj Commission, Bauchi State Primary Healthcare Service, and select secondary schools in Bauchi State
