adamsmith914:He never alluded to that, just said this is what the "One Nigeria" crew wants Biafra to stay put and enjoy. That could as well mean that "other Nigerian tribes" are better by being stronger to stomach this wanton killings and breakdown in law and order while Biafrans are not as strong for these and hence want to be the driver's of their destiny but still the "One Nigeria " crew like yourself won't let go 3 Likes |

Gullible we are not!! Why the modus operandi of this government is just propaganda and blame. Once there is an outcry due to the despicable state of power all over the country, they come up with the lies ascribing that power was produced but not supplied, just anything to shift the focus from their gross incompetence and negligence. What is the work and responsibility of the Ministry of Power?....abeg make una do your jobs and stop misleading people trying to garner sympathy....it's your job to ensure Power (which includes planning, production, supply, delivery and regulation).....

| Education › Re: Mohammed Idiagbon: "Envious Colleagues Set Me Up" - UNILORIN Lecturer Says by sosodat: 6:44pm On Jun 11, 2016 |
Firstly, l do not condone exploitation of students or junior staff by superiors or lecturers. However specifically in this case, which was presented as sexual harassment & rape....l strongly beg to differ based on the evidence (the audio tape) presented so far. This at best can be proved as professional misconduct/ethical misconduct which is not a criminal offense but a disciplinary matter by the Faculty board and or University Senate at most. In the audio evidence firstly, there was no indication that it was actually a student as throughout the 8minutes plus of it, there was no mention of their professional connection but only the location "an office" was explicitly mentioned. ....this a BIG positive for the accused. Secondly, there was no threat of repercussions on the part of the accused which will help a case against SOME aspects of abuse of power 3rdly, the charge of rape is grossly over-reaching as the girl willingly visited, the accused always stopped any implied action once told and on at least 3 occasions actually told the girl to leave his office (with no threat attached). From the audio exchange, it could actually be termed consensual negotiation of sexual relations between two consenting adults ....this could be gleaned from what the girl said on different occasions in the audio: "l will like to, but just that my breasts are painful and l am on my period" and also "I can next time" . All these were going on with the girl not held against her will as well as with the door open, been asked to leave on 3 occasions, her personally going to lock the door as well as having the keys to the door. A counter charge of manipulation and false misrepresentation can be brought against the girl to support the accused's assertion that this was a setup(which becomes a criminal act). It could be argued from the audio evidence that it was the girl initiating & pushing as it was mentioned on 3 occasions by the accused for her to "stop calling his phone and always coming to his office". This is a very strong portion of the audio to assist the accused in proving it could have been a setup. All in all, based on this evidence (audio), it will be highly insufficient to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused is guilty of the charges brought against him (sexual harassment & rape) though it will be sufficient for him to be disciplined for professional misconduct/ethical misconduct. The above is just a logical view of this issue but my sentimental opinion will be to crucify (though not feasible l think) the lecturer because during my university days, there were a few of them exploiting the female students and l won't want my daughter to go through that too. 1 Like |

oge4real: I still do not understand why Nigerians react as if coins is a curse. If England, America, Australia and other developed economies of the world still use coins, why then is that we are so afraid?Why this coin plan will not work is just exactly the same reason - 50kobo, N1,N2 coins are no longer in use: When CBN spends hypothetically N6 to print N10 coin and the coin does not have purchasing power beyond or up to that of buying water. It will simply go the way the coins in Nigeria has gone = Melting and using for cutlery, ear rings etc, which is worth more than the coins This policy is not well thought out in suiting the environment and facilities on ground |

Ileke-IdI:Exactly!! Ekiti can make room for just a couple more. Plateau does not want them again.....very simple to get, just like an eviction notice from your landlord. "what your neighbor did"  ?......Harboring a neighbor (who is one of you) to murder others and operate safely from your settlement repeatedly for years without some calling him out and reporting the criminals also makes all of them accomplices and in tandem. How do you distinguish the particular settlers who butcher and maim from the community that supports and enables them?.....this strategy is what the authorities in Plateau has been trying to do over the years but thousands continue to be massacred while trying to be politically correct. They should just leave and probably join those in Ekiti. |

@ Ileke, Probably you and Ekiti will embrace them and welcome them. Is it hard to get, that those that welcomed them before, were getting indiscriminately massacred and hence want them to leave and find someone else to accommodate them. Guess they should be alerted that a most kind person (YOU) is waiting to welcome them in your village. NOT FAIR FOR A MINORITY TO BE OPPRESSING AND BUTCHERING THE MAJORITY IN THEIR OWN LAND. I asked you some questions earlier.....still waiting for a response |

buzugee: its obvious the guy loves the woman which is why he tied her down with a kid and lied about his job and married her. the guy loves her very much. but he does not have the means to keep her, which i am sure is not his fault as nigeria is a society ran on nepotism and not a meritocracy. personally i think the guy has more value and substance and dignity than your cousin. the man is willing to make a family and commit heavily to her while your cousin is more committed to an oil worker, and now she is angryAgree with the above.....just as women do falsify their attitudes, behavior and rebrand themselves to catch a guy the fancy, that is what most young unemployed graduates in Nigeria now do so as to get a girl they cherish. Though rightfully, the family will feel let down by been lied to but the true test of the Man's real character is from now on....will he stand by this girl(your cousin) and try to care for her. So I plead you all help him out to start earning and then judge what his true character really is |

shuddyy: Its funny how some people deceitfully keep saying the muslims must come out and condemn this BH and their act of terrorism as if they have been deaf dumb and blind!How come we never hear of these your claims of condemnation from Muslims both online or in the papers....please do post a link. All there is, are implicit excuses for Boko Haram by the few muslims that bother to comment on atrocities committed in the name of their own religion. Take here on this thread for an example, a bombing that took HUMAN LIVES (Brothers, Sisters, Wives,Husbands, Fathers and Mothers), [b]your fellow Muslims, NONE (including you) has come out to condemn Boko Haram [/b]instead giving excuses for them, trying to convince peeps that Islam is a religion of peace and attacking/ threatening anyone that doesn't agree with "the revenge with human lives lost because of an alleged insult on your prophet in 2001". Note - Boko Haram is quite different from ND Militancy cos BK is religious and using Prophet Muhammed, the Quran, Hadiths and Islam as whole for all their attacks and demands (ALL) based on those. Only when Imams, influential muslims and all muslims start condemning Boko Haram in strong and no uncertain terms, will this scourge go....if not, then Muslims are indirectly harboring and nurturing them with silence/excuses. Wondering the brouhaha you all will be raising if a christian, pagan or atheist kills your relatives on the basis of their beliefs and his brothers in faith have the effrontery to attack and chastise you for saying any bad words against a part of their belief(in this case the prophet) even without any of them condemning the act. |

Outrage as Egypt plans 'farewell intercourse law' so husbands can have sex with DEAD wives up to six hours after their death Egyptian husbands will soon be legally allowed to have sex with their dead wives - for up to six hours after their death. The controversial new law is part of a raft of measures being introduced by the Islamist-dominated parliament. It will also see the minimum age of marriage lowered to 14 and the ridding of women's rights of getting education and employment. Egypt's National Council for Women is campaigning against the changes, saying that 'marginalising and undermining the status of women would negatively affect the country's human development'. Dr Mervat al-Talawi, head of the NCW, wrote to the Egyptian People’s Assembly Speaker Dr Saad al-Katatni addressing her concerns. Egyptian journalist Amro Abdul Samea reported in the al-Ahram newspaper that Talawi complained about the legislations which are being introduced under 'alleged religious interpretations'. The subject of a husband having sex with his dead wife arose in May 2011 when Moroccan cleric Zamzami Abdul Bari said marriage remains valid even after death. He also said that women have the right to have sex with her dead husband, alarabiya.net reported. It seems the topic, which has sparked outrage, has now been picked up on by Egypt's politicians. TV anchor Jaber al-Qarmouty slammed the notion of letting a husband have sex with his wife after her death under the so-called 'Farewell Intercourse' draft law. He said: 'This is very serious. Could the panel that will draft the Egyptian constitution possibly discuss such issues? Did Abdul Samea see by his own eyes the text of the message sent by Talawi to Katatni? 'This is unbelievable. It is a catastrophe to give the husband such a right! Has the Islamic trend reached that far? Is there really a draft law in this regard? Are there people thinking in this manner?'

omar22: According Richard Branson (The Virgin owner) he said in life to make it big you dont follow set rules, you make your rules along the way! sometimes in life people play their part at a certain stage, Don Jazzy could be the blueprint doesnt mean he is the future. Theirs an academy in Argentina the started grooming Lionel Messi but he blossomed at Barcelona, Michael Jackson in Jackson under the stewardship of his father but he broke away and Quincy Jones did the rest. Am sorry but as it is in the book Ecclesiastes Things are beautiful during its time Dbanj had a vision, Don Jazzy felt too scared to take the risk am sorry I would never pick holes in someone who says he has dream!@Omar, Sorry if I came across as if I was picking holes in his (Dbanj) dream....I will love for that to be actualized but just unhappy that the recipe that would have made it a sure thing is broken. Now to address the points you brought up, Richard Branson talking about not following set rules doesn't apply here (cos actually Dbanj is just following set rules of (us humans..most) jumping ship immediately when we think something bigger has arrived without pausing to ascertain if the time and foundation are right). All the others you enumerated, like Lionel Messi and Michael Jackson all have one thing in common. Lionel Messi's blue print was & is both innate talent and discipline (training)......He is an entertainer like Dbanj and he carried along the full ingredients of the limited promise he showed to Barcelona to blow up into a world star. Michael Jackson's blueprint wasn't his father but rather was his innate talent, voice and quality of production (producer). Hence when he went solo, he took along one of the main ingredient(producer) of their Jackson 5 comparatively limited success which was Quincy Jones to establish legend stardom status with his subsequent 2 to 3 albums etc (google it) Everybody is in our life for a season, but you have to fully harness those associations to achieve your dreams before breaking up/moving on Don't get me wrong, I ain't attacking Dbanj or siding with anyone but it is painful seeing artists I love keep on making the same age-long mistake........in their conceptions that another place is the ultimate (US) and you need to get and be there to conquer the world (exposure) leave the very foundations of their success so far in search of conquering the world. Keeps happening....recent examples Craig David, Estelle (who has gone back to the UK less popular than when Kanye got her over to the States). What keeps from keeping hold of your blue prints and foundations of success and reaching out to the world. Fela is a Nigerian/African example |

tlops: 'That is part of the four questions I posed 1. Is it the right time? 2. Have you solidified the base and kept it intact from which to launch from? 3. Do you have the right people around you? 4. Have you developed and incorporated the skill to carry people along? Dbanj mentioned Steve Jobs, Bill Gates etc as people that achieved their BIG dreams but the underlying thing is you have to have that skill to really pull those you might need along.....been persuasive, encouraging, flexible and of course good negotiation. In the interview, he mentioned three times, that he is very good negotiating alas the deals he/mohits were able to get. A good businessman doesn't let pride or anything make it harder to achieve his goals. Guess he should have read more about the people he quoted (ie Steve Jobs etc) Wish them all luck |

It is okay to have BIG dreams like Dbanj but the big questions are 1. Is it the right time? 2. Have you solidified the base and kept it intact from which to launch from? 3. Do you have the right people around you? 4. Have you developed and incorporated the skill to carry people along? As he has rightly mentioned severally, he does not deem himself a singer but an entertainer. As an entertainer, you have an instrument or means by which you entertain. Will you in your bid to conquer the world, fail in carrying along those means which propelled you to prominence? You don't achieve greater success by been totally radical in throwing away the blueprint which you used in attaining some success before but rather modify gradually and build. Dbanj mentioned Steve Jobs et al as people who had a dream and went on the achieve it but one thing synonymous is you need to perfect your base(means/skill on which your idea is based on) and know how to carry on and carry along your partners to the achievement of that goal..... I like his dreams for African music integration and acceptance in the West but I am sad that some of the major ingredients which he had that would have made that easier to achieve has not been managed properly, carried along and built upon. It is glaring in Dbanj's own words "All my hits, tracks and songs in all these years were produced by my friend Jazzy".....that successful blueprint and foundation is highly needed in other to catapult and conquer the US (unless the intention is using the western production which defeats his alleged dream of bringing African music to the forefront) Also, this is not like the first time or the only Nigerian musician currently signed and collaborating with a US BIG label or name (i.e Wizkid,Tuface,Nneka,P-Square etc) If solely on the business end, bringing the Good Music/Def Jam to Nigeria or sub saharan Africa, they alone could have done it but the time is not yet right cos of no structures for making money from downloads (ie. itunes) and no end in sight of Piracy.....anyway time will tell....goodluck |
