Validated:You are comparing a tout and agbero to a commissioned officer who passed all necessary training and rose to be a Major General while also holding all notable leadership roles in the military and political military? The certificate forger you refer to is a well known alumnus of the tertiary institutions he attended in the USA, with both picture and academic evidence of his scholarship in that institution. An Accounting technocrat who rose to become Treasurer at Mobil Oil of Nigeria that is today known as ExxonMobil. He has been a Senator, 2 term Governor of the most complex and economically vibrant state in Nigeria, a party leader who contributed political expertise that kept the democratic opposition alive for many years - something we now realise many still miss him when compared to the current rudderless opposition without patience or strategy. Those who Japa are not in anyway academically or professionally superior to those who have become Governors and Senators and Ministers and Presidents in this same failed country. We have had Phd holders in political government, Professors, Medical Doctors, Senior Lawyers, Engineers etc and you want to paint a picture that they are touts and agberos, in order to make the ones who did not succeed in Nigeria feel good about their economic refugee status in foreign lands. Only professionals have ruled this country and you will not excuse them from blame that should be borne by all whether they are within or now without. Those who shamelessly celebrate their new citizenship are part of the failure that is Nigeria even in their own general followership and leadership in their little stations of authority while in Nigeria. |
Validated:Which touts are running the country? The politicians today were not professionals yesterday with work in both public and private sector? Stop fooling yourself that some innocent professionals have to japa because touts and agberos are running the country. The touts and agbero are still in the gutters and it is the very professionals you want to glorify and acquit that are running this country aground with their greed and lack of foresight, despite all the foreign exposure they have. |
Putindbutt:Tinubu is ready to work with anyone even if they previously stood in opposition of his political ambitions. Marilyn Ogar was only a spokesperson for a DSS that was a political tool of Goodluck Jonathan. She was not the head of DSS. |
I always shame when I see Nigerians celebrating this. Many of them are not innocent in the decay and disgrace that is Nigeria. Only difference is they are now in a country that will not tolerate what is tolerated in Nigeria. Even if I have to take up such "shameful" course of action, it would be in quiet and private, nothing to celebrate in an economic refugee return to the same places ones ancestors did everything to escape captivity and slavery. |
Is the headline deliberately misleading? He is factually asserting that it has become difficult over the years for European teams to get to the world cup while African participation has trippled since 1994. Meanwhile for South America with few countries, the majority of countries in that continent get to participate. |
Peter Obi is right on this one. We have a knack for wasteful spending in our government. |
Hold down that is leading to separation and divorce? Pa Ned might be right afterall. |
markidoo:Does the Nigerian police establish wrong doing before they begin to arrest and prosecute? Nigeria police that is bereft of commonsense? |
OGwales:Exactly! I laugh when I see bills being passed trying to tackle sexual assualt and exploitation without any provisions being made for the false accusations of those crimes. |
If only you know how many men have been destroyed by false accusations bordering on sexual crimes. Imagine she is now being charged on a mere case of defamation, when if the man had been convicted in a Lagos court, it would have been life imprisonment? |
The peoblem with Nigeria is that no one is willing to do their respective jobs qith the level of commitment, patriotism and sacrifice that it requires. That is why we have these myriad of problems everywhere. Nigeria has long been a failed country with a very weak government, civil service, and security service/legal system. The consequences of the weak security service/legal system is why we have witnessed the loss of control in the last 15years. |
Adaisback:Hypocrisy is the problem of Nigeria. |
AMINDA:Are your so called publicly available facts a crime or a good development? Just asking to know if you mean well for Nigeria |
Bahamas95:Those are terrorists also and they must face the law. That they are not facing elimination and the law is why the North is today a lost cause. |
A country where hundreds of its citizens can be continuously murdered and villages sacked and ransacked by a rag-tag band of nomadic terrorists ad infinitum, without any effective response by the police force, while the military is also inept to neutralise the enemies within, is already a failed and disgraced nation. |
Any Nigerian who says Nnamdi Kanu is not a terrorist and did not lead a terrorist group and did not commit any crime, that Nigerian is a waste of matter. All terrorists must be apprehended and they must face the law. |
The North is gone. Walahi! These people cannot be rescued from the terrorists who are the actual government in the North. And to think a core Northerner Fulani Muslim who was a former military head of state was President for 8years while this scourge enveloped Northern Nigeria, including his own Katsina state and Daura town? |
Racial rape and UK rape. I won't be surprised that it was consensual sex. No be today dem don dey lie to convict men, especially black men. Those whose lies were later revealed as false accusation managed to convince many that they were raped. |
1x2x3:How are the pictures from the malicious topic I queried and the one in your own link related? Does Buhari or Tinubu or ex SecofState John Kerry appear in the picture from your link? For the malicious topic, the picture was taken in Nigeria when the US SecofState visited and met with the major opposition party in Nigeria, APC. From your own link, Northern Governors that were mainly of the PDP, visited the USA and used the opportunity to complain about the PDP led government of Goodluck Jonathan. So this topic remains very false and malicious. |
All Nigerians have always known that Sowore and Kwankwaso are more fiery and action oriented in their political ideology. Atiku is a flip-flopper. Did he not delete his own tweet over the lynching of the Christian girl in Sokoto to avoid losing Muslim support? Peter Obi's voice is enough testament to his spinelessness. It remains an eternal disgrace that hunman life is worthless in Nigeria and the Nigerian government and people have become accustomed to this constant massacre from Benue to Plateau to Yola to Katsina to Borno to Ondo, even Epu River massacre in Anambra is not left out. |
The widespread killings in Nigeria need to stop, be it religious or ethnic. Since the regime of President Jonathan till now, Benue State and Plateau State has not had any respite, due to both religious and ethnically motivated killings. The Buhari regime also witnessed a lot of killings in the NorthWest due to what is still being wrongly termed banditry instead of terrorism. And the successive Government continue to pamper these murderers because the government is totally inept at security. I like the attention that Trump and the American politicians are putting on Nigeria. Truly, Nigeria is a disgraced country. A banana republic. |
I see we needed America to show interest before Nigerian leaders begin to inadvertently acknowledge that Nigeria is a country where human life is worthless. |
Anither563:What is serious about it that needs investigation? If the US did not think it was justified, would they pay? |
Your picture does not corroborate your headline. Show us the throwback news report that corroborates your headline. |
festacman:Fashola and Sanwo-Olu are from where? |
I hate cancel culture. It is no different from bullying. Regardless of what has transpired, I believe organizations that have responded to deserved criticism and taken steps to correct the misdemeanour should not be left to the mercy of those who ordinarily do not mean well for any enterprise. I will shop wherever I like, regardless of who owns the store, as long as I get the right service and good products. |
At what cost? At the value of the monthly salary of senior managers in Nigeria. She would only try this if her health insurance covers it and not to pay out of pocket what she will not spend on groceries in 2months. |
tiswell:You mean after a pentecostal in the person of Ayo Oritsejafor who was a political tool of the PDP became the 1st Pentecostal leader of CAN that had existed for many decades, CAN should have remained a pentecostal front and political tool despite the informal rotation between different branches of Christianity? Even CAN cannot Can. |
jesusjnr2020:What is Mass? The Apostles did not pray and break bread as mandated by Christ? What is Pope, Papa etc? Was Peter not the leader of the flock as appointed by Christ? Where is GO or Superintendent in the bible? |
pdppower:Very valid. It would be a litany if we start comparing everything done now versus what the apostles did. |
Who would have thought that one day the party that was referred to as janja-weed party and amala & ewedu party will dominate in the SouthEast? |
SpaceX:The foremost news report about her own pardon had already mentioned that her family pleaded for her release to allow her cater for her children, besides the fact that while imprisoned she had demonstrated character that showed she embraced her rehabilitation. So it is not surprising that her father-in-law is buttressing the same points here. They who are the most bereaved from her crime have made the most appeal for her release. |
