Naaah! Don't make me faint with this barefaced deception. I don't trust that source yet, until other verifiable outlets relate same, then we will debate this serious indictment.

How can you tell me that it's IPOB that's freely speaking Hausa in that video while shooting??

The entire squad was regaling in Hausa jubilant notes.... "everywhere catch fire".

IPOB will gladly speak Igbo if they were to be the one behind that wanton savagery.

We hope to hear the Military command's defense from a reputable source soon. SMH

If you have money, you will never die young if you take care of yourself. You don’t need any pastor to pray for you at all.

Do you reckon how many billionaires that have died in the past 2 years since the advent of Covid, either in Africa or the Western world?

Your money is never enough to buy you an existence...I know of a friend whose grand Ma is 104yrs of age right now in Nigeria. This family ain't rich and there's no specialty attached to the care of the grand Ma.

streetzdreamz:
Lol, having a conversation with some people on this forum is like talking to a wall, their reasoning is one sided and mostly locked in. Some real life scenarios will defy any logical evaluation or reasoning, your last paragraph made the whole rape thing messier like the boy who cried wolf, people hardly believe rape cases these days. Some ladies saw to that when they took it as an avenue to get back at a man for whatever crazy reasons they come up with. But that doesn't mean one shouldn't be flexible as well, this shit happens. Ain't no denying that.

Of course! I chose not to make it one-sided, that's why I balanced it with certain cases where some ladies do make spurious allegations. But then it's vice-versa as you also attest.

It does not however absolve the fact that there are no consistent confirm rape cases.

Too many Simpsons in Nigeria I swear. black over protect and personalizes pvssies more than any other race I have come in contact with.

You think it's always about Blackman ain't it?

An Italian just personalised pussy by killing a Nigerian lady recently who's been his wife. Google it.

Right now the Will Smith we all know is going depressed cos of his wife, Jada.

A British cop "white cop" just arrested a vivacious young lady...mind you for pussy sake, raped, mutilated and buried her in his private land in a swamp. All for what

The Op is stating what he's experiencing right about now...many taking on his jugular but the guy was only telling the fact that if the babe had listened to him based on many advice given, may be she wouldn't have found herself in such saga. I don't think he was wrong to have said he's forgiven her for that.

nairaman66:
Honestly, you he story doesn’t add up. She was raped outside on the streets

Hello, I had to comment on your intermittent insistence that rape couldn't be done on the streets or cases are almost unfounded.

If you had not witnessed it or have it happened to someone you value or trusted so much doesn't mean it's all lies. Go to Mirabel centre (SARC). You will get confirm cases from victims through their experience. Some don't come out that's why it thrive.

Years ago I witnessed on the Bolade-Oshodi rail tracks just beside the Expressway not even Street, where ladies were being raped by a group of urchins and the poor ladies were shouting for help at the top of their voices. These evil guys were even checking out for other ladies who were running in fright during that unfortunate day as a result of the Ikeja bomb blast. They were so daring.

Some urchins and cultists use this act publicly as contest to disgrace certain persons they've marked while other habitual rapists wouldn't care to rape even in a public bus as learnt lately in UK when the evil spirit descend upon them as often with Saul that he loses control of himself.

That's why legislation against confirmed rape cases should be stiff. I reiterate... confirm cases, because some ladies can also use this trump allegations on marked individuals as seen lately in South Africa but for CCTV that vindicated the alleged suspect.

Amotolongbo:
This is one thing that happens with branding and rebranding also with introduction of new and different slogans.

It may go well with some people, go south with some and indifferent with some.

Wow! This Samsung board off me ooo! Maybe it's the artist that made this error and may not be general.

Yes introducing newer brands names can have it demerit if sufficient research isn't made before hand.

Nbotee:
Abeggiii... In Yoruba it means 3 so??

Correct! That's to show that no matter what name an entity bears in one language, it will either mean something else in another or slightly similar.

Facebook's announcement that it is changing its name to "Meta" has caused quite the stir in Israel where the word sounds like the Hebrew word for "dead".

To be precise, Meta is pronounced like the feminine form of the Hebrew word.

A number of people have taken to Twitter to share their take on the name under the hashtag #FacebookDead.

The emergency rescue volunteers Zaka even got involved, telling their followers on Twitter: "Don't worry, we're on it".

Another Twitter user said: "Thank you for providing all Hebrew speakers a good reason to laugh."

Facebook isn't the only company to be ridiculed over translations of its branding.

Here are a few examples of when things got lost in translation.

'Eat your fingers off'

When KFC arrived in China during the 80s, its motto "finger lickin' good" didn't exactly go down well with the locals.

The motto's translation in Mandarin was "eat your fingers off".

But it didn't harm the company too much. KFC is one of the largest fast food chains in the country.

'Manure'
Rolls-Royce changed the name of its Silver Mist car as mist translates as "excrement" in German.

The car was named Silver Shadow instead.

Meanwhile when Nokia released its Lumia phone in 2011, it didn't exactly get the reaction it was expecting.

In Spanish, Lumia is a synonym for a prostitute, although it apparently only appears in dialects with a heavy gypsy influence.

Honda however had a lucky escape. It almost named its new car the Fitta, which is a vulgar description for vagina in Swedish. It apparently did not translate well in a number of other languages.

Apparently the issue was detected early on and a decision was made to name the vehicle Jazz in most countries.

What I was waiting to read from your long write-up now is if Wakilu has escaped to safety or not!

You obviously didn't tell us if he had been ferried out by his boys successfully and may be he stayed put.

matm:
Personally,I don't believe an adult lady of 18years plus can be raped Since I was born,I have never heard any lady screaming for help in the neighbourhood for rape.
The one I heard and ran for help,I met a guy holding a bgirl tight in a corner around 8pm,the young girl bluntly told me "nothing" when I asked her what was wrong.
I quietly left,and on turning back, the two were still in same position.
A lady told a guy in my hearing she can't stay for a week without sex and dt she has tried all her best to control it but to no avail.She said she would use all methods to pin down any thing dt has a dick she sees once d urge comes.

Why are you talking this way The lady in Akwa ibom that was raped and killed by the guy, were you not aware of such trend?

Rape of minors and adults even old women are as real as the palm of your hands. But some of these victims will likely play it quiet for the sake of stigma and victimisation which is why rapists go scot-free most times.

ivolt:
Fake news.
CCTV or not, there is no evidence of rape and the man was never going to any jail.
Rape is one of the most difficult case to prosecute and the victim's word is never enough for conviction.

I pray you won't be roped bro. You won't see what will make that lady to twist it against you, then only you will see that many are languishing forever in one dungeon for trumped up rape charge proved by a single person against them.

You call it fake news but the narrator who's involved called it "Near Death Experience"!

This is outrageously ridiculous!
Igboho paying to one Aboki to continue destroying North and this came by a way of about N12m All in a bid to paint Igboho as a terrorist

What happened to several hundreds of terrorists sponsors Malami and the rest have discovered and they're not ready to name as stated recently.

How can Nigeria ever move from this single spot with all these shenanigans?
SMH vigorously!

Op, it appears you culled this elsewhere or probably set it out to garner discussion and attention. If so or not so, I wonder why some of the questions posed to you weren't responded to if you ever wanted to be freed from the so-called depression and suicidal instinct.

Are you directly involved? Engage us so we can know where to start from in advising you..this life sweet and I hope you've been seeing many gracing the news page here after committing suicide.

You better know what you WISH! I've never heard there was a Red carpet reception for a suicide graduate in the world beyond, what we've heard and come to understand biblically is that it's even a worse offense with damnable retribution. If you kill yourself, we will drag you after that foolish act and in death, you'd wished you have managed the affairs better with optimism for a better day ahead as a result of a new found celestial understanding in death.

Waiting for your feedbacks and engaging responses.

Shalom.

But this Abuja big man nor get name

Give us hin details make we drag am small for using "our jet" for mundane lifestyle.

More like using an American Airforce 1 to carry one girlfriend of an unnamed govt worker or apologist.

Naija don cast...sooner when this gets hotter they will come up with one cooked story line that "She's a defence contractor and need to have first hand experience of the Presidential jet's present condition in order to have a perfect assessment..bla bla bla"! We're waiting!!!!!!

Oh my God! Charges must be brought against that heartless killer, hence if freed, he will do more and brag that "e don tay no be today"!

Justice should be served, it's not a civil case so let the pastor Pere swerve and justice to take it's course.

Danjikanbauchi:
that was why she wanted to confirm if he is cheating too so that her conscious will stop disturbing her. Now she discover he is not cheating and she won't want to confess her inquity.

Watch how her fellow cheats are supporting her and want to shift blame to her husband.

Such a damning reality. I am surprised the kind of support some are actually giving her when its obvious her refusal to the Term she created, makes her a suspect already. So much for counsellors you'd say.

InTheCloudySky:
It seems like the type of cheating you're referring to is physical (aka. sexual intercourse). If she could go to the extent of asking you to swear with the Bible because your word wasn't enough for her to believe you, it's only fair that she gives you the same respect by doing the same. I know if someone asks me to do such a thing, they gotta be ready to follow suit, otherwise I would deduce their refusal as hypocritical and that they're not particularly innocent of what they're accusing me of. Sometimes when people cheat or have cheated, they'll accuse their partner of cheating; it's a form of gaslighting. It's something men do but women can also play that game.

You were so much on point... striking the exact chord and not beating around by being soft and partial on your own gender who actually triggered the swear debacle.

Trying to tie emotion for publicity. It's good sha.

Powerhouse5050:
I was never arrested for this crime..... When the police stopped my SUV , they questioned me about it and the invited me to the police station to have more discussions about the 6 SUVs that I just bought and fully paid for,I drove to Douglas country police department by myself without any warrant.

After 20 minutes of interrogation at the police station about my SUV and the payment method....
The police officer changed the topic and said he will like to question me about a crime that happened in the complex I was living.

I replied him that he brought here to question me about my vehicles...but now he has changed it took a crime that happened....I have no idea about what you are taking about and because of that I don't want to say anything to you again.

After some persuation and I refused to talk , the detective then said he will have no option than to arrest me for the crime and he will charge me with rape...
This scenario happened just 2 hours after the crime happened.

2 hours for God sake

! If this is exactly how it played out and nothing was held back nor garnished, then you were just a pawn in a villainous systemic conspiracy. Some are fast to testify against one, crucify and bury even though they had no realistic evidence against another nor were they witnesses. We must becareful when passing the buck that could send a fellow human to ultimate perdition mostly when there are jagged edges as to the accused's culpability.

There's been cases of wrongful convictions on the Innocents and even biased acquittal/ soft landing on the guilty in some climes people thought their system are impeccable in all indices.


To the OP, if you're truly innocent, please take solace in this... it may take time but God will eventually vindicate you in one way or another if ONLY you believe! And now is even the time to draw closer to God if you've not really been. Who said the main suspect can't be apprehended? Who said prayers don't work? He may even helplessly own up to the crime when a heavy unseen hand descend upon him and renders him restless.

Well, what do I say

Over there, it's a norm and we all know that which often gives one concern. Over here, it's a crime as in many parts of the real world.

You even in your heart of heart knew that many Northerners won't support your opinion as it's a way of northern culture and I can't say religion because in the Southern part, there are many Muslims and this marriage to minor don't apply. Anyways we in the southern hemisphere can't come and carry it on the head as always and we're dubbed different monikers, as it's constitutional Sharia wise over there except your leaders review the law.

Moreover, the Attorney general who's from the North can be approached to make contributions against under age marriages.

Well, the beating part of it is really not good though but who can tell if there had been a hot provocative attitude from you! I don't know but I honestly think if your parent and sibling were to be asked their own take, they will surely have what to say in respect to their reasons for withholding you hence the physical restraint

You aren't telling us the whole truth as the reason they're restraining you, this may not be far-fetched many parents wouldn't want their children to bring shame unto them by way of the type of friends they keep which can at the end, lead the authority knocking at their doors. This is not ruling it out that some parents can be overly protective. One thing I know is that if you're cool headed and worthy intended, your whole family shouldn't be against a thing as simple as living on your own. At least if not your parent, your brother should be on your side. Something is twisted somewhere. There are much younger guys living on theirs.

You alone knows what the real issue is and I will want you to employ honest conscience in determining if your parent meant well for you or not. Yes, you're 25yrs of age but it doesn't mean you can't be hoodwinked or cajoled by bad peers as this might have been the weak point your family want to guard against till you're fully matured in mind and doings.

In the meantime while you're with them, be a responsible, reasonable and gentle young man to be counted upon. Rebelliousness don't pay.

Shalom

Shuoo!! No be mumulity be this?

The stuff is bought with your money and the sink is yours too. So if you decide to burn YOUR Cornflakes in YOUR sink, how has that solved the issue on ground

Hope this act wouldn't be counterproductive to their safety back in the East. I hope they have superior plans against wanton huntmen that may want to use this act against them.

richmond500:
if u check his comment, it shows that the message was forwarded.

Him get people weh deh feed am information just like journalists

I think you're right. The thing is, when you're known for something, you automatically draw people who will be supportive of your ideology.

I think some just take shots of hotspots as it's being unloaded and send to him since not everyone in the East agrees to this carnage.

WTH! So this incident occurred since July and it's just coming to the public space. Everything has been silent since then and probably the Lt have returned to her normal daily routine.

Hearing from the oppressed, I think it's more of a show of power and bravado and that ain't right. The scenario depicted more of a personal grudge that evolved and should have been overlooked with sense of professionalism from the Lt.

Mstravelindiva:
Thank youuuu! It’s so annoying when others (especially women) try to tear each other down. We should be lifting each other up and clapping for their successes. I absolutely LOVE when I see my people happy and successful!

This world has enough negativity to spread around, therefore, in a world where you can be anything…be kind…it literally costs you nothing!

Yeah you're SMOP. Just keep doing what you're doing. Many lives are being touched in so many positive ways right now by this doing but you may not really know. And of course through multiple feedbacks here, one can attest.

These tips and experiences garnered through the travels don't come cheap, it costs good money, time etc. Kudos for finding time to share.

Mstravelindiva:
I’m not seeking attention but sharing helpful advice. Maybe you should consider my previous advice and mind the business that pays you. I’m confident in the skin I’m in with a husband that loves every inch of my thickness, so grow up and find something more productive to do with your time, or better yet…address your bitterness and fix that attitude.

If you don’t like my posts, then remember “it’s mind over matter. I don’t mind and you don’t matter”, period!

Oh my! How I so much love this response. So succinctly put and comprehensive even to the daftest!

I was actually ghost reading, but couldn't suppress the temptation to sign in and applaud.

Lesson: Never let anyone pull you down, no matter what their opinion of you is. At the end of the day, only you knows yourself more than them or their skewed observations.

Female prison is not harsh nah shebi nah bbnaija den dey watch for there.

You forgot to add the most celebrated this year among the listed names.... alleged murderer of Ataga

What a lopsided brained man The woman convinced you that your first child being her stepson is a wizard and has been behind the daftness of her own son and poverty in the house!! Pronto you agreed and killed the boy, the beginning of your strength. God will judge you both.

Fela said in one of his music: Mr Follow Follow; "If you want to follow follow, make you open eye open sense open ear, na dat timmmme, na dat time you no go fall..."

Many are seeing and hearing the glaring killings and Carnage going on but are still saying Na lie, Na fabricated News bla bla bla. Doing follow follow blindly and the region one of the most peaceful is going to a sad decline.

Umuigbo, wake up and speak against evil with One voice.

Construction Duration Estimates

1.Building skeleton i.e to roofing level = 5 weeks

2. Finishings (plastering, electrical wiring, windows/doors, tilling, screening/painting, plumbing/electrical fittings)= 6 weeks

Total Duration= 11 weeks (Assuming constructed in dry season)

Cost Estimates

1. Building skeleton= N9.5m ( using stone coated roofing)

2. Finishings = N13.5m (using armoured doors for main entrances, Nigerian paneled casement windows, 60*60 Italian postlene tiles in major areas, Sweethome closed couple plumbing fittings with water heaters,etc)

Total= N23m ( Twenty three million Naira Only)

NB: We can be reached for other professional consultancy as we have delivered such structures around South East. Thanks





Are you sure about this with the present economic comatose coupled with Naira freefall?

Is this quotation for 5bd duplex a present one and can you share some of your work of recent?

Thanks

OldGods:
how long do you plan to keep getting help, people throwing away your urine etc. Sometimes it is really better to die, I'm not wishing you death, but it is not as if we are going to live forever anyways. Something's are better dead, reincarnated and start a fresh. Goodluck in your next life.

You mean you just said this to a grieving soul . ?

I normally don't react to malicious and disoriented positions but I had to take exception to your case. I can't believe you just made me cry reading this ultra wicked response you wrote to a pitiable fellow who wasn't messaging you directly but rather messaging the generality of benevolent hearts all around the world that Nairaland can be read! Was that an issue for you

I don't know you and I don't know this person who has been purpotedly bedridden for sometime now, BUT I know that God swap positions. Whatever god you believe in too, does swap positions. There's only one true God, who created that same god you believed in if there's any, but I am sure that everyone has a belief in what he knows whether atheist or what have you. The ONLY True God will make him to rise up again by wiping away his misdeeds and making him to receive Grace.

I won't judge you but then I will point out your errors so perhaps, you may change your ways. This is absurd, that guy never banked for the situation and saga he found himself, you asked him to go die and choose a better life when next he comes Argghhhh, fear God.

How do you sleep at night to wake up in the morning, you think you are some kind of special?

How do you have 7 course meal to yourself and think it's by your wisdom, you eventually think another is a lazy person?

How do you move from one point to another unscathed and back to your comfort zone daily, you think you're supernatural?

How do you drink and eat and it doesn't climb through your brain to choke you but many have died this same way, you think you sabi finish? Jere 9:23-24..Don't brag about your strength and not even about your riches nor wisdom.....


AND if you're reading me you that had been ridiculed, scorned at, bullied and even told to your face to better drink sniper and die because of the unpalatable situation that you find yourself, don't put to tears for what man has said about you! Remember "Your Redeemer Lives". That person who has mocked you isn't even sure of his/her health status or circumstances tomorrow. Rather go into your inner room, cry unto God, submit in totality by believing He can always do it. Trust me, He can!! One can only be there to have understood how it feels...I AM A PRODUCT OF GRACE. Nothing is practically impossible for God. Your case is nothing. He will visit you at the appropriate time IF ONLY YOU DON'T LOOK UP AND DOWN AT THE SAME TIME (Looking unto God and looking unto man). God will not rest for your sake, Is 62:1.

Shalom
