CASTOSVILLA:
Bro mind you, this LP will run by the youths as rightfully demanded. Blacklisted politicians will not be allowed. Stop making wrong assumptions.

That is your first mistake, run by YOUTH?

What are you 12! Is this your first presidential election?

You are assuming the law doesn't allow for an ex post facto change.

For the avoidance of doubt, there's no law that prohibites the movement of any politician from one political party to the other, and your other point, I think you are just being naive, sure, they can try to recruit some young minds FROM THE ELITE, but eventually, after the porting is completed, those you see now are still going to be there,you think they will allow everyone in? Smh!

CASTOSVILLA:
The urchins should find a way to him and verify with their eyes. Stop this internet Pandora paper ish. Go to him directly and stop making noise with you agbado brain

Did you watch the video, if anyone (Tinubu, Atiku, Buhari) give this kind of explanation will you accept it, what is in contention is not if he should throwaway his assert, but that he didn't declare it, he operated a foreign account while he was a governor.

Here is a quote from the Newspaper

The report exposed how Mr Obi incorporated offshore holdings, which he did not declare to the Code of Conduct Bureau when he served as a governor and how he continued to manage his Next International UK Limited 14 months after becoming a governor. In addition, he also continued to operate a foreign account as a governor.

All these actions, which had been secret until our report, were in contravention of Nigeria’s laws on code of conduct for public officers

As Nigerians we mustn't allow emotion to guide our selection, every issue should be looked at objectively, I know everyone can't be Objective all the time, but as far as the presidency is concerned lets be objective.

The implication of any public officer operating a foreign account for just 24 hours is detrimental, within hours funds can be moved into such account without a trace.

The sentiment we (I can't say we, I never voted for Buhari) had for Buhari, he is honest, he is Mr Integrity, even Obasanjo returned all/part of what he took while in Government, corruption cases everywhere, it seems like there is going to be light but eventually here we are.

Before you say PDP or APC, I don't support any, and I won't, the system of government we are practising can't take us out of the present quagmire.

Think about this, if Peter Obi becomes president (Best case scenario), most of those in APC, PDP they move freely into LP and in the next 6 month of his presidency, they are occupying the varrious position, you can say Peter Obi won't allow them, but he will (he can't stop them by law anyways), the moment he is President, he will need all the help he can get, those that won the Senate, house of Reps from all the other political partys, he will want to control each house so it will be flexible for him, he will woo them with position and eventually we are back to where we were.

Fuckyoumod:
I wonder why a state like Rivers State should be fourth on that list. 13% derivation , huge IGR and Federal allocation was all Wike needed to work.

But hell no, he must be the president of Nigeria and so he needs to borrow to buy his ambition. Wasting scarce resources on his nonsense ambition.

Wike must account for all the looted and wasted Rivers money.

River state should be second, they refused to update their database for over a year now.

sonofElElyon:
That part about it being an issue only because she didnt want it... it's a bigger issue because he shouldn't have in the first place.. greater culpability lies with the adult

That is your first mistake, he might be an adult, but he is a mad man, and as such, the parent now not the child who are the next available Adult should be the one to address, you want to explain to a madman why what he did is wrong, this is not a minor offence, raping anyone is a serious offence, raping a minor is worse, he is a madman, and I have no business talking to a madman.

sonofElElyon:
Whether she wants it or not sex with minor is rape.. even if she didnt oppose the act... called statutory rape

I just quoted the section its in the constitution, why do you feel the need to man-explain it.

What it's called will have no meaning if he is not caught, if she never spoke up, will he present himself to the police.

The right and wrong is already established, how do you stop it, there will always be mad men, the society can't get rid of them if they haven't committed a crime, but when they do, it will be too late because like her, the damage has been done.

Watch your children, educate them on time, don't allow something like this to happen before you help them, that is all I am saying on the subject.

Midas01:
Please speak for your sisters.

Also, wether or not the child was sexually active is nobody's concern and nothing gives another person the right to rape another.

Can you stop for a second and reread the comment, the message he is trying to pass across is valid, parents should be more aware of their children, if the girl was interested, there wouldn't have been a rape issue, because she simply wouldn't say anything, she will just continue and the guy will continue to rape her, might continue until she is older and eventually drop her. The damage will be unthinkable, by the time she's knowledgeable enough to know its wrong, no evidence can be presented, like every rape case in the last 4 years. The court doesn't simpathise, if you can't prove it, then it didn't happen.

This doesn't mean it is right, it's a cry to our parents, keep a close eye on your child especially once they approach that age. Many things are happening!

rickpat:
for minors whether with or without consent (whether she wants it or not) it's a crime term as defilement as long as she is below the legal age of consent,which is 16years( nigeria)...if it's a case of a minor whether it's her wish or not...it's a crime called defilement

It's actually 18, section 31 of Child right Act.

I think the point he is failing to make is, most young ladies this days are sexual active even before 14, the only reason she cried rape is because she didn't want it.

I wish they will say, if you haven't registered you will be deported to UK.

Shalommy:
Chaii... As if she's naturally endowed with that yansh or na pampers.. Fake people everywhere!

Don't be jealous, the young shall grow.

Islandlady:
Trash... you men just irritates me!!!

Thank you for the confirmation

Islandlady:
The confused and nagging nature of a Nigerian men really got me thinking what nature of woman they really wants and appreciate Maybe they can never be satisfied!

As a woman you decide to become an independent woman they complain, you also decide to become a dependant woman they also complain!

Below are screenshots from a twitter & IG influencer exposing the nagging and confused Nigerian men about different nature of Nigerian women!

I think the bigger question is, why do you feel the need to update us on your progress, if you are so comfortable without a man, just live the life you want with cats as companion nobody cares.

Everyone have a subjective view about who and what a woman should be, guess what, that is okay, we don't have to be the same, as a matter of fact, we shouldn't be the same.

Everyday you come up with reason why you hate the male folks, guess what that is called classic over-compensation. You hate the fact that you can't do without us, or you hate the fact that even if you hate us there are ladies who will die for us, you can't help it.

And guess what, if you can stop the self hatred long enough to allow someone close, you might be happy. Don't tell me, you are already happy because you are not, you carry around this bitterness and hatred, its begin to clash with your sense of reality. Give it a try today, let the hatred go!

Eagba:
wetin concern me with fraud?

Baba I dey vex say after the guy's well laid out examples of leaders that brought their people from poverty, crime and fraud . Through exemplary lifestyles, through them and their associates. So the people can be inspired and also makes it easier for the people to be prosecuted if they commit fraud, you just brush it off as jargons, because you are trying to make a case for criminal fraudster you had in mind to come rule us.

I can bet you that you are AF.

Trust me, the kind of President Nigeria really needs is not on the ballot, we need someone with an iron fist, unfortunately Democracy won't allow it, so trust me when I say this whoever becomes president next year is really not going to matter because, fixing Nigeria in a democratic way is impossible.

Let assume your preferred candidate wins, he will need ministers, Special Assistance, Aids, AGF, the Senators are still going to be the same set of people, same with the House of reps, the Governors, heads of agencies, local government officials, this people are Nigeria and 50 percent will be Nigeria youths, what is he going to do, vet everyone himself, NO, 90 percent will be referred to him by Nigerians, and anyone appointed will behave like Nigerians, so yeah, even if he is incorruptible, which we both know is a lie, everyone around him will make him. Until we as Nigerians change our mindset, no president can make any meaningful change, we will only act disappointed after every 4 years.

virginprincess:
You got the traits from your fathers .

And did I choose my father, isn't you that sheepishly fall in love and chose him to be the father of your children, why blame me, if I couldn't have made a different choice.

virginprincess:
,this is funny,anyway, she better acts fast before the dream becomes a reality because men can't be trusted.

And somehow women can, its funny how the producer blame the product!

You give birth to us, but insist we can't be trusted, how do you figure we got the traits.

Eagba:
You're either daft or wicked.

Says the person advising people to commit fraud.

franchasofficia:
If you put the blame on the people that means you do not understand the role of leadership.


Quality leadership by a determined and incorruptible leader will reset the mindset of the people.


If a leader isn't stealing, his family members, friends and associates aren't stealing, then it will be easy for the leader to use his life as an example to reorient the people and change their mindset.



Take for instance someone like Bola Tinubu, what does he have to tell the people about not stealing not looting not desiring what they do not merit when he is the father of corruption, chop I chop and whatnot?


Back in the 50s and 60s and even 80s, Chinese were more criminal minded than Nigerians but a single leader who had the determination to change the statusquo brought the desired change in China and look at China today.



The same applies to Singapore. They were corrupt, poor, disorganized until Lee Kuan Yew came onboard and began to lay legacies of transparency in leadership, contentment and incorruptibility and today look at where Singapore.



The major problem Nigeria have is leadership and unfortunately Nigerians aren't ready to correct their leadership mistakes by electing credible men with less baggage, not criminals and political jobbers like Tinubu who take politics and state treasury looting as their full time employment

Keep telling yourself it's Leadership, those in power today were the youths of yesterday and today's youth will be the leaders of tomorrow, if this circle continues, Nigeria can never be great or better!

NozinoGroup:
Everything you said isn’t valid.

If defrauding people will put food on your table, do it. Survive first!

Civil servants and paramilitary/military officers can accept less than 50k salary because there are numerous ways to make money under the table. An immigration officer with 200k/month salary can make 2M extra monthly from passport runs.

It is the government’ fault that cost of living is increasing and salaries aren’t. It is the government’s fault that entrepreneurs can’t get access to loans. Unfavorable business conditions and government policies are also the fault of the government.

If fraud will help you survive, I’m encouraging you to do it.

This is the problem, what about if robbing others will put food on your table - do it right?

If kidnapping will put food on your table - do it right?

If killing for money will put food on your table - Do it right?

Until we decide to work and live by our own means, nothing will change the country, no president will or can.

NozinoGroup:
You go work 50k work na.

How much is rent? Food? Gas? Light bill?

So the alternative is to defraud others, everyone started small, I started with a 30k job after NYSC, most Nigeria police (rank and file) officer until recently collect salary below 50k.

Once you make fraud an alternative, there is no way you will agree to work.

franchasofficia:
It is very wrong and insensitive to put all the blame on the youths involved in this online scam as a full time job.


Nigerian leaders; President, Governors, Senators put them all in this mess because if they had performed their leadership roles well and created conducive environment for businesses, entrepreneurship, etc to succeed, these guys wouldn't have ever known what scamming online is.



So to solve the problem start from the root cause which is bad leadership that leave legacies of public fund looting, abuse of public office and destruction of hope amongst Nigerian youths.

You forget our leaders were not imported, they are Nigerians, they were once Nigeria youth.

The root of the problem is our mindset, if you even for a second entertain fraud, you are part of the problem, even if God sends his angels, if we the youth don't change our mindset nothing will change.

LORDKing001:
If any of them message you for 1k to eat will you wholeheartedly give them without grudge? Let's stop this mind game

And there is a country where everything is available right?

most of them don't want to work, they prefer fraud, let's stop deceiving ourselves, right from school, they refuse to acquire the necessary skills to be employable, they spend most of their time partying, managing only to pass by exam malpractice, or bribing lecturer.

If you ever paid or cheated in an examination and you expect to be employed when you graduate, you are only deceiving yourself, because even you won't employ yourself.

Everyone can come up with excuses why they are into anything unlawful, kidnappers will say, they have a wife that requires kidney transplant but nobody or bank will give them so they kidnap people to rise the money, same with money ritual, armed robbers and yahoo yahoo, there is always excuse.

franchasofficia:
These guy's talents needs to be rechanneled and harnesed for the greater good of Nigeria by creating technology hubs where youths will be taught high value computer skills including progromming, cybersecurity and they will become sellable experts working for corporations all over the world and earning in hard currency and boosting Nigeria's FX inflows. Even the dullest one amongst them will be good as a data entry worker after necessary trainings.




They are unemployed, confused, scared of their future hence their reliance on fraud as the only feasible means of for survival and escaping family poverty induced upon Nigerian youths by decades of failure of consecutive leaders of Nigeria

Young man, most of this boys don't want to work, you will be surprised many of them are graduate.

I spoke with a young man once he said he can't start from the scratch when his mate are already having cars, houses and married, he plainly said, there's no way he will accept a salary of 50k as a starting none experienced graduate, he said even 100k is not his portion.

If you want to buy car, build house within 6 months, fraud is the only way. Until we change our mentality, even ladies prefer to date a yahoo boy, they admit it without shame and you think one president will miraculously make everything better. Keep dreaming!

Akurakambe:
You guys are just lazy! What will it cost y'all urchins and BAStards to write to UNN to verify the authenticity of the result.

Foolish idio.ts.
Tinubu is a thief and drug lord. He's a Chicago drug dealer.

Like you wrote to Waec about Buhari

Forget Tinubu (nobody care about the old man), the moment Obi stond on integrity and the slogan VERIFY, he should be prepared for everything, there should be no discrepancies on his certificate, if there is, he should clarify immediately, if you take a stand to be different be ready to defend yourself, as small as this may look, this doesn't look good at all, it means all our politicians are the same and trust me, the trust we all have about the coming election may just be at stake.

RightToReject:
Most of you've got a poor/absurd concept of respect. Even if your brother is the sole breadwinner in their union, I don't see how a wife sending her husband on a just errand (a wife expecting/reminding her husband to be diligent) amounts to disrespect to him.

Like in this scenario here, telling him to go and check whether the woman that sells provisions is back showed that there was a pre-existing arrangement between the husband and the provisions seller. So, I wonder how she erred by reminding her husband to strive to bring the arrangement to fruition. And don't tell me that you had expected her not to send such a request to her husband because of your presence, citing that you're a brother-in-law and obviously wasn't having some kind of formal deliberation with him.

Eschew needless pride.

Young man stop the sugar coating, one of the pillars of every relationship is mutual respect.

Some women disrespect their husband to prove a point, they even do it in the presence of their children, if any of those children have low iq, he/she will develop hatred towards their father as well.

One thing I have discovered is women are very petty, they can do anything to prove a point.

Here is an instant,
I was driving home yesterday and the traffic was mad like from Falomo up until Adeniji, so somewhere pass Osborne I noticed this car in front of me, who ever is driving is either sleeping or enjoying the traffic (I usually assume if a man and a woman are sitting in front they are having fun discussion) but the driver was a woman, so I press the horn every time to alert her there's movement in front, but instead of her to move she will just ignore till other vehicles from the other lane will occupy our lane in front of her, this happened multiple times, I was really pissed but nothing I can do.

So just after Dolphin there was an opening to the right, I quickly attempt to drive and be in front since she's very comfortable in the traffic or lack the skills to drive properly, but to my surprise she blocked me, tried going the other way, she blocked me, this continued for a while, then I realised, she deliberately trying to make me remain behind her and she's not ready to move, I plan an escape and in no time was in front of her.

Here is the main story, can you believe she pressed the horn continuously for over 30 minutes behind me, everyone kept shouting at her but she continued, once they notice she's a woman, they just ignore.

She continues following me even after we were on 3rd mainland bridge, manoeuvring and chasing me like we had an issue, eventually! She succeeded in coming beside me and SHE GAVE ME THE 3RD FINGER, THE F*UCK YOU FINGER.

So yeah, men should be very careful, most men are just enduring their marriage, anything you know you can't bear don't endure from the start. Even from your mom, my mother do say I am very stubborn, sometimes you need to say NO, when you are uncomfortable with the situation, Yes! People will like you less, don't allow blackmail to put you in bondage, in you do something wrong apologies and that is it, if she tries to hold you down because of your offence, remind her you apologised and you can't apologise forever. Life is too short to be a living slave.

I want to ask my fellow Yoruba brothers a simple question


Majority of us said we don’t like ibos, that we can do well without them


The ibos we don’t like said okay allow us to go your own way


We start begging them to stay


This is one particular question no one has ever answered me

Mr Yoruba, Igbos are not asking Yoruba, is Yoruba the government? Can a tribe grant such request? All this single digit iq children, read! You won't!

Even I, with my PhD, will volunteer as an agent for Labour Party come 2023. I will do it free of charge!
I want a better Nigeria for myself and my children that are yet unborn!

You have PhD but no child, this is why North will still get their preferred candidate, I know how long to get a PhD especially with the kind of education system we have.

Oziens:
Beer parlour blackmail is this present administration trademark. Believe this concocted and disjointed pieces at your own peril. Trying by all means to whip up sentiment against ASUU. ASUU demands among others, salary is the least item. Never has ASUU demanded 50%, not to mentioned 100% salary increase. The Government should simply honours the agreement reached with ASUU of which the present Administration, developed with applicable timeline memorandum of Action for implementation which they have since reneged on.

Govt is continue..... The lame excuse being giving by this Govt is unassailable.

Ironically, you have money to dole out to Niger Republic, Afghanistan and profligacy adventures that have no benefit to the country.

All this ground standing is because of the election, once it is over now everyone will keep quiet, they want their own share.

The money some university make can run a small country, the management in the various universities is a bigger problem, even if they are given the money right now, they will pockets it and request for more, they are no better than the politicians.

August 2022, the total volume of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) imported into the country was 16.46 billion litres, which translates to an average supply of 68 million litres per day.

also disclosed that import in the year 2021 was 22.35 billion litres, which translated to an average supply of 61 million litres per day

Who did this calculation 16.46 billion litres equal 68 million litres per day

22.35 billion equal 61 million litres per day.

princeemmma:
Imagine your Girlfriend calls to tell you that she went on a date with a guy and the guy japan leaving her with all the bills.

She is now calling you asking you to help her with 30k to settle the bills.

What will you do as the boyfriend?

You don't know ladies at all, they won't call the boyfriend, they will call the SIMP that is contented with voice notes. Except of course the boyfriend is the simp, and even at that they won't come out plainly with the details, they will say they are sick or have an accident.

FalseProphet1:
Peter Obi's legacy.

I see Nigeria becoming the best country in the world when Peter Obi wins. In fact if Peter Obi wins every Nigerian would automatically make Heaven, I see fuel, diesel, kerosene, gas and engine oil falling down to their old prices, I see bandits, IPOB, Boko Haram disappearing mysteriously, I see world bank and China forgiving us our debt like in the days of Obsanjo.

I see Nigeria becoming great again.

This I have seen.

The problem of Nigeria can't be solved by one person, it require the collective responsibility of everyone including me and you.

The youth for example have to change their mindset, no more Yahoo yahoo or ritual yahoo, no more get rich quick mentality, no more malpractice, we need to start PAYING OUR TAXES, OBEY THE RULES OF LAW, NO MORE TRIBALISM, NO MORE SELF INTEREST.

YOU THINK WE CAN DO THAT? This is not a movie, though it is important to choose the right person, the job is not for one person alone, we all have to agree to change.
