Berankis:No one truly realises the enormity of Nigeria’s problems (security, electricity, infrastructural needs, healthcare) until they get to power. But 2years is enough to get it right with security if the courage to do the needful is applied wirgout any concerns about the political outcomes. |
Who replaces world-class physicians with herbal storytellers during brain surgery?Truth be told, Ejiofor craftily navigated the legal proceedings to ensure that the case would be scuttled rather than concluded, because he knew well enough that the verdict would be guilty. On that note, he really tried for his client since 2015. |
On the delayed appointment of ambassadors, the minister said President Tinubu was already finalising the list, adding that the nominees were undergoing security vetting.Whose fault is it if we do not have ambassadors to properly engage our international partners? President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is solely to blame. He embraced some of the rubbish that Buhari introduced, like taking forever to name his cabinet and also to appoint new ambassadors after relieving the previous ones from their duty. It is a show of unseriousness that was never expected from his government. |
chiagozien:I see you have no sound response where you cannot blame Yoruba for your woes. |
chiagozien:How was the terrorist unjustly convicted? Was Simon Ekpa also unjustly convicted in Finland? |
Conviction of criminals after due prosecution would not aggravate anything. We must stop glorifying riff-raffs and must stop pampering threats to our freedoms and peace. Except we are truly a disgraced country where anything goes and there are no consequences for violence, anarchy, vandalism, terrorism, murder. Nnamdi Kanu is where he belongs and many more will meet him there as he had met others there. The ones not so lucky to be caught alive will meet them on the other side. |
It is evident that our military leadership and government do not know what to do or need to be compelled to take the drastic actions they have been avoiding. I very much welcome the attention that America and Trump are focusing on a truly disgraceful and shameful country that has failed to protect its own citizens from local terrorism since the past 15years. A useless country where police and military news regale us with tales of how they engaged attackers and managing to kill only a few and chasing the rest of them into the bushes with presumably gunshot injuries, but same police and military men then return to their bases as though the threat has been neutralised? Tinubu is currently failing in providing security for the country, but has time to conclude without failure as his verdict. This is not the time for sentiments or politics, this is time for merciless vengeance. |
Afriifa:Yes it can. |
Did those people tell you they support IPOB and its menace? Why are you expecting them to speak over a criminal prosecution of a terrorist? Is it because he is Igbo as you love to lament? 1 terrorist down, many more to be put away. |
Outthemudbyvoke:You identified the same problem that you suffer from. They see their own menace as their brothers that should be left alone. You also betray the same sentiments in seeing the terrorists called Nnamdi Kanu as someone who should be left alone. Same disease, different hosts being ravaged by their own sentiments rather that embrace the needed remedy. |
njokuuche77:Very true. The Nigerian government is always too slow to react. |
princeade86:If there is a reason to do so upon proper verification of the information, why is that a problem? |
The North is doomed and I say this with all objectivity. The North doomed itself and must not be allowed to doom any other region of the country. The military should unleash the full force of its arsenal now that the whole world is asking questions. A full frontal assualt that would obliterate both human shield and terrorists. Anyone who objects or constitutes a nuisance over the military operations in the North must be viewed as an enemy of the state and promptly put where others would learn from. Do not make the mistake of trying to rescue anyone, we have already failed them by allowing them to be taken in the first instance. Trying to save them would only weaken the resolve to overrun the terrorists. |
DomPerignon:It is hard to convince the Igbo that anyone loves them. I believe they thrive on their own hate that is reflected back to them. There should be rejoicing in the SouthEast that the menace of IPOB was crushed. |
Truthissupreme:As laughable as it sounds, that experience as Governor of a bandit ravaged state should have become a very handy tool kit to help the government face the problem squarely, instead it has become of no use. The Defence minister is also a former Governor of Jigawa, both are in a position of authority over the military operations going on to combat terrorists that are wrongly addressed as bandits. |
Miseducated Nigerians forming educated but spewing ignonrance. How many times do we tell these pea-brained fellows that a Minister's appointment is political and administrative, not technical. Only the Minister of Justice that serves as the Attorney General, need to be someone legally equipped for the role to be played. No other minister must be professionally qualified for the discipline the ministry is focused on. And this is a global reality, but ignorant Nigerians continue to insist that a minister must be something beyond what it is designed to be. |
MrGerald:You should be happy that the bigotry of the North allowed Buhari to disregard the threats facing his own Katsina to focus on the also valid threats posed by IPOB. Today, Igboland is free from the menace and terror of IPOB but Katsina is under siege by its own terrorists. Be grateful for the peace that Buhari inadvertently enforced in the SouthEast while failing his people. All terrorists anywhere in Nigeria must be put out or put down. |
Richtaiwo:Those people are a disgrace to education. Same way Simon Ekpa never hurt a fly and was only making threats that were being executed, yet he was duly prosecuted and convicted in Finland that does not have a Yoruba President or Yoruba Judge. I repeat, the likes of gidgiddy, owobokiri, MrVitalis and the rest of the Igbo clansmen, the daughters of discord, and the children of hate, are a painful reminder that education does not succeed all times. Finally, we reconfirm what many already knew about the Igbo Obidients. They are mostly IPOB supporters. P OBI = IPOB |
He must not be allowed to commit any further crimes in Prison, being a wild and unrepentant anarchist. This is how all terrorists should be locked up or neutralised. 1 down, many more to go until Nigeria is well rid of those who want to impose chaos on the country. I wonder who Igbos blame for the criminal trial and conviction of Simon Ekpa in Finland? A people devoid of objectivity. Justice for the many Igbo security agents who were killed in Igboland. Justice for the many Igbo civilians who were killed by the chaos and anarchy that Nnamdi Kanu midwifed. Thanks to the Nigerian government that prevented the anarchy that Kanu attempted to inflict on the SouthEast. Imagine the breakdown of law and order that would have engulfed the SouthEast if the Buhari regime had not stepped in to eradicate IPOB's terror and grip on the SouthEast. There would have been no legitimate government in that section of the country at the rate Kanu was determined to impose himself and his group as the forced leaders of the Igbo people. |
owobokiri:The narratives you must have bought into is stemming from your own delusions that an anarchist and terrorist like Nnamdi Kanu is worthy of some presidential amnesty as though we must pamper terrorists in Nigeria. Why should men of goodwill be concerned about the lawful criminal conviction of a riff-raff terrorist called Nnamdi Kanu? Are Igbos incapable of logical arguments without capitulating to their ethnic biases? Or how do you explain a correlation between a terrorist's lawful trial and whatever it is that happened to Abiola decades ago? Why does anyone's hands need to be forced over a recently concluded legal matter that allows the convict the opportunity of appeal that will not change the compelling evidence already presented by the prosecution? Kanu is now a past tense shackled to the dungeon where his type belong. On to the next terrorist that need to be put down. |
The North is the problem of the North and the solution to the problem of the North. Tinubu should declare a state of emergency in all the states affected and remove the governors and replace them with retired military administrators for a 1yr term. Also restrict movement in all the affected states. |
We should not be showing mercy to terrorists. Were the military couple shown any mercy at the hands of IPOB terrorists? Did IPOB show any mercy to the countless policemen and other government security agents that have been killed in Igboland? Was Dr Chike Akunyili shown any mercy when his face was blown apart? |
horlando30:Exactly! I see no Nigerian midfield this 2nd half. Just kicking the ball with long volleys into the opponent's half of the field. This Nigerian team have no business at the world cup. |
correctguy101:https://www.nairaland.com/8562001/uk-based-nigerian-jailed-collecting In addition to the fraudulent practice in the above link that was promptly penalized, many Nigerians like him do worse in Nigeria and complain that the country is useless and hopeless. Do we talk about those who are employed in government agencies and departments but never report to duty, yet collect monthly salaries? Are they not also part of the Nigerian professionals who japa only to go commit the same abroad like the doctor? Corrupt Nigeria police no dey japa? The ones who bypass their electrical meter no dey japa? |
Mindlog:But I assure you that not a few have resigned from such high paying jobs in Nigeria to go be at the bottom of the society in foreign countries. |
Many bankers are criminally minded. Many who made it without being caught are today celebrated as doyens of the banking industry. |
“This case demonstrates a clear and deliberate abuse of trust by an NHS professional who knowingly breached the conditions of his employment for personal gain. By working additional on-call and night shifts, despite being unfit to do so, Akinrolabu defrauded the NHS of substantial funds that should have supported patient care.He thought he was in Nigeria where anything goes. |
adamkkk:It is partly a mindset problem. Give some of them well paid jobs in Nigeria, they will rather choose to flip burgers and drive trucks abroad, just so they can pose in a winter jacket and head warmer. |
