Soon, someone will want to educate us on how amalgamation was in 1914 and independence was in 1960.

It is not about any particular Speaker's origin. It is about who is able to table his case, and who is able to receive the argument with a rational mind.

That office has no business sharing award with a Deputy Senate President.

Since it is a statutory award given to whoever occupies the office, the correction would be effected for all the former Speakers.

You are right.

Then before the global KPMG emerged from PM and KG, PM operated in Nigeria as Peat Marwick Ani Ogunde and Co.

The Ani there is Anthony Ani you referred to.

Rest In Peace Hero's. Nigeria loves you.

Nigeria sympathize with Israel. Together we stand with Israel.
You and who sympathize with Israel?

That the British who managed Mandatory Palestine sympathized with the Jews and allowed them to relocate as refugees from Europe to Palestine, and then subsequently allowed them to carve out a country from the Palestine region, is the cause of most of the MiddleEast crises the world continue to suffer.

PoliticsRe: Tajudeen Abbas: Reps Reject CFR National Honour For Speaker, Demand GCON by Throwback: 11:19pm On Oct 02, 2024
Tareq1105:
We have 3 arms of government and they are:

Legislature

Judiciary

Executive

I ask you, who's the Head of the Legislature?

Who's the Head of the Judiciary?

Who's the Head of the Executive?

House of Reps is a lower house. So, there's no discrimination here. It has been the tradition. Femi Gbajabiamila as speaker never protested against it when he was given same award by Buhari. I don't think Tinubu has done anything wrong.

Perhaps the lazy lawmakers would tell us any Speaker of House of Reps in Nigeria that has been decorated with GCON.
The answer to your question is very obvious.

The head of the Legislature are Senate President and Speaker.

Simple because our legislature is 2 tiers.
HealthRe: Lady Who Gave Birth To 6 Babies At Once Does Their Photoshoot (Video) by Throwback: 4:18pm On Oct 02, 2024
Antwan99:
Na waoh!

In modern times, a lady gives birth this year, rests the next year (that is till the baby is 2) before taking in again.

So, to birth 6 children with this calculation, how many years will it take?

Whereas, this lady did it at once.

Hope you now get it?
I agree with you, so by the parameters you have already set the lady did it in 1year not 24hours.

If you say she did it in 24hours because you are focused on the delivery alone, then focus on the separate deliveries of 6 babies.
PoliticsRe: Tajudeen Abbas: Reps Reject CFR National Honour For Speaker, Demand GCON by Throwback: 2:48pm On Oct 02, 2024
Their resolution makes sense.

The Legislature is an arm of government like the Judiciary.

And the Legislature we practice is a 2 tier type with the House of Reps totally independent of the Senate.

If the head of the Judiciary deserve GCON, and the Senate President also deserve GCON, then why is the Speaker of the House of Representatives going to get CFR that a Deputy Senate President is getting?

HealthRe: Lady Who Gave Birth To 6 Babies At Once Does Their Photoshoot (Video) by Throwback: 2:43pm On Oct 02, 2024
Antwan99:
On usual, this would take a lady giving single births about 10 - 12 years to birth 6 children.

However, this happened within 24 hours. Chai!!!

The husband is a bad striker. shocked grin cheesy huh
You mean the pregnancy was a 24hour (1day) pregnancy?

Then the separate birth of 6 children can be considered as 10 to 12days going your wrong comparism.

If you already know that 6 separate births would take 10 to 12years, why did your brain suddenly become so simple in thought to conclude that having sextuplets is all about the duration of baby delivery and not the duration of the pregnancy or even time spent to succeed with the IVF that produced the pregnancy?

Godwin4444:
A fool looking for sympathy, someone already tell him your plans n he made it clear he doesn't need a baby but ur long throat made u feel u can tie him down

I don't pity people like this
All I read is a suffering guy who was very open and truthful to his girlfriend, and at the very moment when his struggles was rewarded with victory, the girlfriend decided it was time to place more burdens on the pathway.

Who does that?

No be Chevron or NLNG guy wey dey relocate. Na common frustrated lecturer.

And it was at that very time you conveniently got pregnant for a struggling guy who has just found his most desired breakthrough?

This girlfriend is a destiny destroyer, and the guy realised this. But the guy was also foolish to loose guard to the point that a woman can get pregnant for you when you are a broke ass.

I believe NNPC has told you what they are doing to keep the fuel price low without paying any money to anyone.
PoliticsRe: Edo Governorship Poll Echoed My Advice To Peter Obi, Says Obidigbo by Throwback:
“This is why I urged my younger brother, Mr. Peter Obi to leave the stage and stop trying to show what leadership by example should be, because the people seem not ready yet for that.

The former Anambra State governor has shown that he is too pure and clean for Nigeria. Corruption, lying and cheating have become a way of life to Nigerians such that whoever tries to parade integrity and modesty is looked at as stranger and intruder.”
These are the people who deceive Peter Obi into believing he is more than the charlatan that Anambrarians experienced when he was Governor.

Too pure and clean, yet N250m cash was found in his convoy?

Too pure and clean, yet he domiciled state funds in the same bank he was the former board Chairman, and also invested state funds in a brewery he was a personal significant investor?

Hypocrites abound in this world.

PoliticsRe: Edo Election: Abure-Led Labour Party Congratulates INEC, APC by Throwback:
(13)There is no controversy now that Peter Obi political career as a man of integrity and honour is over. Ooffooneee
What integrity?

Anyone who ever thought Peter Obi had any integrity must have been drunk on hero beer.

Is it the same corrupt fellow who kept Anambra public funds in his bank rather than execute projects, thereby preventing the states growth while ensuring his bank's growth?

Or is it the same ethically challenged charlatan who invested state funds in the same Brewery business he had a stake in?

If it were to be in the US, Peter Obi would be a sure criminal convict like former Illinois Governor, Rod Blagojevich.

When it was proven from records available in the UK that Peter Obi did not resign from his own company until 2008, which was 2 years after he had already become Governor in 2006, the liar still insisted that he resigned before contesting in 2003, but that he handed over his resignation letter to his wife who was a director of the family business. So he resigned within his family but the official UK corporate records say otherwise.

What manner of unprofessional charlatan is this olodo?

The many lamentations of Anambrarians when he was Governor, still litter this forum to provide one with a candid impression of the fellow once referred to as a wicked, visionless man.

How can I even forget the very foolish excuses about the N250m cash that was discovered in his convoy in Lagos after a tip off to the police?

A former bank chairman claiming a contractor who was paid for a contract chose to withdraw the money from the bank in Anambra and then needed the protective company of the Governor's convoy to move the money to Lagos. And a former Bank Chairman and state Governor allowed it?

Very unprofessional charlatan.
PoliticsRe: Edo Election: Abure-Led Labour Party Congratulates INEC, APC by Throwback:
(5)The Party said "Just last week, Peter Obi and Alex Otti were clapping for INEC who alleged that the tenure of Abure has expired. When they knew that we had a national convention in Nnewi, they knew we sent out invitation to INEC, Alex Otti sponsored the convention in Nnewi, Alex Otti Deputy represented the Governor in Nnewi, All the commissioners in Abia were in Nnewi, and yet because they wanted to forcefully, illegally take over the Party, they said INEC was correct to say Abure tenure has expired. When they themselves know that INEC was not truthful, INEC was acting illegally, today because they failed in Edo, INEC has done the wrong thing.
Can Peter Obi's already dwindling political fortunes survive this attack that projects his hypocrisy to the whole world?

No LP presidential ticket for Peter Obi in 2027.

The desperate ticket hunter will start his hunt for another meal already prepared.
PoliticsRe: I Didn’t Sack Emir Sanusi, $49.8bn Never Went Missing In My Govt – Jonathan by Throwback: 12:48am On Sep 27, 2024
You suspended but you did not use any of the existing deputy governors to hold the fort?

Instead, you appointed a useless Godwin Emefiele and even got Senate approval for his appointment, yet you are now claiming that if your regime still had time, Sanusi could have returned from "suspension".

So, what would have happened to Emefiele that was already fully appointed to the role? Or Sanusi that later moved on from how you disgraced him to become Emir of Kano, and you had to go bow before him in a bid to secure Kano votes for your failed reelection in 2015?

Ah Jonathan! O ti jona tan. You are truly clueless.

Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em.
PoliticsRe: You Sacked Me As CBN Gov – Emir Sanusi Replies Ex-president Jonathan by Throwback: 9:23pm On Sep 26, 2024
SmartPolician:
Truly, Sanusi has his good side, but he also enjoys being a controversial figure. Nobody enjoys working with such people. I would sack him if I were the president too. Every time, he was talking about missing billions while he went about sharing money in Kano.
But why did Jonathan not respond to the private information his own CBN Governor passed to him about the funds that should have accrued from the oil sales, only to feel embarrassed after it was leaked to the public?

Jonathan betrayed his cluelessness when he said if such amount was missing, America would know because dollars is their currency.

That has to be the most stupid statement ever uttered by a President of a country.

A PhD holder for that matter.
PoliticsRe: You Sacked Me As CBN Gov – Emir Sanusi Replies Ex-president Jonathan by Throwback: 9:21pm On Sep 26, 2024
Jonathan was a character who was scared of his own shadow.

Every truth was lies to him and his supporters.

Every negative news was seen by him as an attempt to embarrass his government.

From his shaky voice, it was obvious he lacked confidence and did not regard himself worthy of the political heights he reached without putting in the work or even having an ambition for such great heights.

An accidental Governor, an accidental President.
