Christianity Etc › Re: Pastor Oyakhilome Loveworld Channel Sanctioned In UK Over COVID19, 5G Conspiracy by Throwback: 9:48pm On May 18, 2020
hoMegas:
I've known Pastor Oyakhilome was a fake pastor since the time that he healed a person that was blind from birth and the person could distinguish between colours.


Who does that?
I remember watching that drama then. I think it was 1999 or thereabout on his Atmosphere for Miracles programme on TV.

He started with his snake movement "follow me" command, then later proceeded to ask what the colour of his tie was, and the healed guy responded that it's blue.

I was aghast as to how a fellow that was blind from birth would know what the colour blue looks like.

It was a poorly scripted drama that should have been ended after the snake movement, taking it further with the question on colour was the overdo that revealed the sham and scam.

Just imagine he was a Northerner who did not "merit" his appointment because he only got it out of quota system?

In this case, he was from the section of the country who only merit to be appointed to all positions, yet he was sleeping on the job in the public glare.

Having ur own business is the best in this country
Is Mikano not someone's business?

Is Silverbird or Genesis Cinemas not someone's business.

Is Quilox or Cubana club not someone's business?

Is Gotel and TVC not someone's business?

Have they not all been affected by the current global pandemic, and would they not be affected by the global recession that is bound to happen?

Do you know how many business owners wished they were salary earners during this period, and do you know how many of those salary earners wished they were federal civil servants now?

The reality is that economic doldrum can impact anyone at anytime.

The Commissioner of Police in Rivers State, Joseph Mukan had assured that the movement of those transporting foods items, including livestock to Rivers State will no longer be disrupted.

CP Mukan during the inauguration of the Joint Technical Taskforce Team said, “This is to say that during this period of COVID-19 there are a lot of inconveniences, most especially to the citizens on their basic necessities. So the government feels that they should be allowed to function.

“Food items we all know are basic necessities of life. So the government feels that during the Lockdown which is almost everywhere, there is a need for citizens to get what they can get on the table for their families. Most especially food items, it has been clear that it should be allowed to move wherever farmers want to take their farm products.”
So Wike has been made irrelevant so easily?

Let Wike focus on destroying the livelihood of Rivers indigenes, while the FG focus on the seamless movement of essential commodities into the state.

Odingo1:
The problem with some Yorubas is that they refuse to learn. I wonder how they believed that the SE is landlocked.

SE is only landlocked to the ocean but have river channel close to ocean. River Niger is an international waterways in which every emerging country will have access to. Before Nigeria-Biafra war, Onitsha river port is fully functional.

Maybe they believe that singing that SE is landlocked will scare Igbos from having Biafra. They want to die in one Nigeria.
Mali and Niger have access to River Niger.

Have Mali and Niger traveled through Nigeria with their ships to access the sea?

Biafra is not only landlocked from the sea like Mali and Niger, but Biafra has the extra misfortune of being landlocked inside another country called Nigeria, just as Lesotho is landlocked inside South Africa.

This is a case of double wahala for dead body

[quote author= post=89639422]Below is River Niger is an international waterway, many of you are plan dumb[/quote]I like your map showing the pathway of the River Niger whose delta into the sea is in Nigeria.

Can you please avail us the information on how many times Niger Republic and Mali have used the river Niger to ship imports/exports from/to the sea through Nigeria, since Nigeria is the country through which River Niger connects with the Sea?

Or is it that Mali and Niger do not know of their rights to use the international waterway the way Biafrans plan to use it like their birthright without recourse to the country that will be traversed to ultimately access the sea?

Politics › Re: Rivers Hotel Demolition: Wanted PDP Leader Breaks Silence by Throwback: 7:52am On May 15, 2020
"Nobody beat anybody. Most of the people that were lying down in the hospital...Governor brought food for Eleme people on Sunday, that's the same day they demolished the hotel, those people (people lying down in the hospital) were there sharing the food, every ward went with their own".

"On Monday they shared the food, this people were sharing food and people where seeing them. Nkolowa Saka was the one that shared their unit own, which is the Covid-19 palliatives, that was on Monday."

"So do you see? For them to go and just lie down in the hospital, bandage themselves in the evening of Monday, that's a wrong information"

"If any person was beaten up, they can not be there when they were demolishing the place, and that the same Sunday they went to the area command where they shared food. On Monday they were sharing food in the community and people were seeing them. Let's even assume they were beaten up and they were hospitalized, will people be seeing them?"

Nairalandmonika:
What if the case had gone in favor of DSS, would u be saying the guilty also get favorable judgement.
Exactly!

Now you catch my drift.

I am always willing to contemplate that Justice is not really served by the verdict of a law court.

In this case Justice was served that an accused, whether eventually guilty or innocent, was denied his freedom without any ongoing prosecution, just because some idiot was waiting on the daughter of the President to return only to swear an affidavit that she never made a complaint.

Nairalandmonika:
U are still trying to defend rubbish, even DSS could not prove that he did identity fraud but u just assume he did it.
Exactly what I said.

I am very open to any possibility in a case like this. Justice doesn't always mean innocence.

Sometimes the innocent get a wrong and bad judgement, just as the guilty also get favourable judgements too.

The victim is a victim in this case because he had rights that were not regarded by the DSS, who still could not prove anything.

Ohizman73:
Even though the said man got some respite there was the influence of powers to be on case. The DSS was made a scapegoat to cover up the presidency.the DSS of course did not act without directive from the presidency to arrest the man.So am surprised with the claim by the presidents daughter that she never made any accusation concerning the cloning of her phone.Then also the counterclaim by the DSS that the man was arrested for using the phone line to defraud people, if he was doing that why did they not provide the evidence. It is sad that mtn also were not held liable. Because they out to have reconfigured the line since they recycled the line. They are also a critical party to the case in providing transcripts of conversations of the man using the line for fraud as allerged by the DSS. The case is a serious one as God was on his side if not he would have rot in jail for no justification other than he bought a controversial line. Thank God he had the receipt as he bought from an authorised telecoms dealer.that assisted him in putting up a defence what if he had misplaced the receipt or bought the line from a hawker as many of us.so many people are rooting in jail as they were victims of circumstances.God help us
Such a case and the subsequent cover-up, can ruin a Presidency in countries like America and the West.

I trust America and their independent Special Investigator in a case like this that is remotely linked to the Presidency.

Unlike this case were affidavits are being sworn by different parties that are contradicting each other, thereby indicating someone has already committed perjury in this matter. In the US, the chronology of events would have been established already.

By now, the DSS and the Presidency would have started pissing their pants, while everyone would have started snitching on everyone to find themselves a soft landing.

Eventually, what will incriminate anyone of status was not the initial matter being investigated, but the attempted cover-up to prevent a proper investigation.

In a twinkle of an eye, someone is resigning, someone is committing "suicide", someone is being impeached or resigning or announcing that they won't be contesting for a new upcoming term.

ZIAZI:
MTN should not be allowed to go unhurt in all this. I do not know the rationale, but y give out an existing number which a person must have registered to another person? I am certain she bought that sim and registered it accordingly. Can't another number be created for subsequent customers? I bought a 9mobile sim which I use for browsing alone but funny enuf, d day I called someone with it, she told me Truecaller identified the number with a different name! I just had to keep my SIM PACK safe to avoid "Do u know me?"
Dormant numbers are always reassigned by all networks.

I presume it is the practice everywhere.

The issue here is that upon realizing from call he had been receiving, that the line formerly belonged to Hanan Buhari, the new user was alleged to have proceeded to use the line to perpetrate identity fraud by posing as the old user to defraud unsuspecting callers of the old users.

However, it seems even the DSS is not immune from the uselessness that is typical of every government institution in Nigeria.

They simply were unable to work according to the law as regards the human right of an accused. Also, they could not prove the fraud for which they claim to have made the arrest.

The Judge should have awarded nothing less than the Naira equivalent of $1m, and such red money after being paid, should have been deducted over 5 years from the salaries of the DSS team that handled the matter, as a reminder that their stupidity is very costly.
Politics › Re: Anthony Okolie: Court Awards N10m Against DSS, Absolves Buhari’s Daughter by Throwback: 7:27pm On May 14, 2020
This case should be investigated further for the truth as per the abuse by the DSS, the Presidency, Hanan Buhari on the one hand, and about a possible fraudulence by the SIM card user.


We have tried so hard to have a functioning democracy with the rights of the citizenry guaranteed, but some useless bastards just love to abuse their office and encroach on the rights of others to exist.

Shame on the lying DSS who could not prove their claim that a lawful Nigerian citizen was using the SIM card he validly bought to defraud Nigerians.

MTN no send DSS message and had every right to reassign the dormant line, Hanan also claimed she no send DSS message as she never filed any complaint, so who is that idiotic bastard at DSS that sent himself a message he could not defend?

Do they just roam about aimlessly looking for who to intimidate, or they are trying to cover the tracks of someone who actually reported a crime that a whole useless DSS could not properly investigate and have solid facts to lock up a possible fraudster?

Someone at DSS needs to be fired and criminally prosecuted.

I hate injustice, worse still, I hate incompetence.

seunmsg:
Awolowo had nothing to do with Zik’s greed. AG won the western region election and formed the government. Zik’s NCNC was the minority party and the right thing for Zik to do was to assume office as the leader of opposition in western region. Instead, he betrayed the Yorubas in Lagos who voted massively for him by abandoning his seat and role in government. He then went back home to destabilize the government of Eyo Ita and hijacked the eastern region government for himself.
Exactly!

Azikiwe betrayed the Yorubas in Lagos who voted him into office as their representative in parliament. All Azikiwe saw of them was a vehicle to power and not for service.

Yes, Awolowo as Premier and AG as the ruling party, frustrated Azikiwe's plan B to proceed to the Federal parliament as a representative from the Western Region and delegate of the opposition NCNC. However, Azikiwe refusing to stay in the West and play his role as leader of opposition when his federal bid failed, but suddenly realizing he could go to the East to cause trouble that would result to a new elections for which he would contest and still lead the party from the East, is what political greed or unbridled ambition is made of.

Dikebuka:
I can't speak for Zik and Awolowo

Reasons being that both parties have their flaws and postives for their actions

I was just pointing out how the events led to Eyo Ita removal.
Had it been Awolowo did not play such game, who knows how events would played out.

The OP was trying to paint it as if Azikiwe just woke up and went to the Eastern region, pointed a gun to Eyo It's head and maybe forced him out of office..
Besides it looked like NCNC based politics.
What game did Awolowo play?

Zik won his seat from Lagos, Awolowo won his seat from the Western region.

Action group already had majority seats without the few independents who were free to decide which party to caucus with, and some chose AG while some chose NCNC.

It is on record that only 2 NCNC parliamentarians crossed carpet, an insignificant number to AG's already overwhelming majority.

Till today, the NCNC politicians like Azikiwe crying foul over their failure to outdo AG, cannot tell us the names of their "many" party members that cross carpeted to AG.

The colonial government conducted the elections, and did not find any fault with the victory of AG, and the NCNC never successfully contested the legality of the victory of Action Group.

So why all the unnecessary wailing?
Politics › Re: How Eastern Region Sacked Eyo Ita The Original Winner Of Election by Throwback: 7:30am On May 13, 2020
It would have been termed a betrayal of the Igbo if Eyo Ita was Igbo and Azikiwe was Ibibio.

Infact, it would have been termed tribal politics, without regard to the constitutional crisis that was the objective of Azikiwe.

However, having lost out in the West to the majority seats validly held by the Action Group of Awolowo, what stopped Azikiwe from playing his minority and opposition leader role in the same Western Region he so much wanted to rule?

Why did he make a quick dash back to the Eastern region like a lost soul who finally discovered his father's village?

I watched the call-in interview.

Really smart questions from the interviewers.

So,
-Hotel is owned by Gogobari Needam, not the PDP youth leader that is wanted.
-Land was bought for N3.5m from Ngede family and occupied 2.5 plots.
-The land CofO was still under processing, with appropriate documents already filed with the relevant state ministry.
-Hotel had 21 rooms and 3 generator units.
-Hotel employed 17 staff.
-Only 3 staff were present in the location during the lockdown to secure the property from burglars. No guests were lodged in the hotel.
-The owner understands that there was "political rancour between 2 warring sides" that involved the PDP youth leader, which did not occur at his hotel or involve his hotel staff, but for which reason he believes his hotel was demolished.
-The hotel manager has been arrested and has been unreachable since the hotel was taken by the state government.
-The owner of the hotel lives in Lagos and called in from Lagos, and has been receiving advice on what next steps to take over this demolition.

These are the facts from the interview.
