DomPerignon:
This is why the core northern establishment and the SE polotical class are against Tinubu

When the FG hands responsibility to states, their governors will be forced to look inwards and demand resource control and look into a tax based revenue system.

Enough is enough..

Every state should assume responsibility .
Absolutely.The only way forward.

Sowore was a year my senior in Unilag and most Akokites dont think highly of him.
I am not surprised. Sowore, to me, is no different to a terrorist or an extremist. I say this because Albert Einstein said "insanity is doing things things the same way, every time, to expect a different outcome".

Men mature, grow wiser and learn how systems of Nations work in order to be effective within that particular system.

How has Sowore moved forward in 30 years or so? He is still the same person who believes resistance, protests and defiance is the way forward whereas a wise man who understands Nigeria, and her complexities and idiosyncrasies, will accept anyone who wants to improve our nation must do what is needed to get in the position to deliver the change they want.

That is what Tinubu has done while Sowore continues to act like a juvenile delinquent.

You are right .

No more calling IG in Abuja to release their criminals

State police will serve them a heavy dose of justice.

Also state police are seen as a standing army against their future Biafra expansion into the SS .

Same reason Ojukwu rejected Gowon's decree 8 that proposed regional armies because Ojukwu saw regional armies as a threat to his intended expansionism into the Midwest and Western region.
Indeed. The Indigene Police commissioner, under State policing, State legislative house have approved will ensure justice is local and not frustrated by 'One Nigeria' idiocy where DSP Chukwuemeka in Osun is dispensing justice partisanly.

Most people do not see that Tinubu is moving us towards regionalism and true fiscal federalism which is is what Nigeria needs so that we all competitively embrace the concept of "charity begins at home" that will make Nigeria thrive.

Let me see what you have been doing for humanity...
Must we all be activists? It is Sowore who chose that path. I am an employer of labour with three successful businesses in Nigeria.

I would argue I am more important than Sowore, by employing and sustaining the lives of several Nigerians, who goes around acting like a thug.

The issue is that we are now in a visual social media culture where those who seek attention through pretend activism, like Sowore and VDM etal, whereas the likes of myself are far more socio-economically valuable because we employ and pay Nigerians to support Their personal and family livelihood.

Yes I believe I am more important than empty and attention-seeking noisemakers like Sowore.

Please I need to know why people mainly from the SE are against state policing that is about to be passed by the Senate.
I personally believe it may be because they know State police will be staffed by indigenes frustrating their effort towards greater integration everywhere as the most permanently dispersed Nigerian ethnic group.

Despite all talks of Biafra, the fact is that it is Igbos who benefit from and need 'one Nigeria' most.

Every development, like State Policing, that makes indigenes gain greater control towards taking full charge of their States and region, meaning all Nigerians have to go and develop their States and region or risk becoming distinctly second class outside their States and region, Igbos cannot like or support.

This is because they are the biggest beneficiary of 'One Nigeria" where anyone can go anywhere to live, trade and earn yet me and you know that model of Governance has failed and is unsustainable..

No doubt Sowore is brave and resolute but he is not pragmatically wise nor a critical thinker in my opinion.

Thinking critically and operating with wisdom will show a man how to win in leadership, politics, business and even activism.

Understand the terrain you are in and adapt to it's peculiarities rather than rigidly believe you can successfully defy it and only do things your way.

Why can't Sowore understand this simple concept essentially linked to the saying "when in Rome think like a Roman"?

You're on point, overlooking the sharia law when first introduced and fully implemented by Former Governor Ahmad Sani Yerima of Zamfara State was a great mistake.
Indeed. Grave mistake as it sent signal to all radical and fundamentalist Moslems worldwide Nigeria can be conquered under Islam.

This is why several sponsors of terrorism, and even the street combatants.on ground in Nigeria, aren't even Nigerians.

They are involved because they want Nigeria to become an Islamic enclave. The introduction of Sharia encouraged them to believe it is achievable.

This is why the USA is uncompromisingly insisting Nigeria must end Sharia.

How? The decay in our federal Police force is decades old and not Tinubu's fault.

Also, you guys don't want to understand ideology related to religion, culture and ethnicity affect policing as well.

What is Tinubu to do about Fulani policemen that have ethnic, ideological and cultural sympathy for Fulani bandits and terrorists?

This is why State Policing is a great development. States, as much as possible, must employ indigenes into there State Police forces.

I hope they can see the outcome of their sharia teaching. These criminals are Muslim fanatics who have taken it upon themselves to enforce the sharia ordinances.
It is why the USA is vehemently insisting Nigeria must abandon Sharia. Nigeria is officially a secular Country that should exist under the common law of Society with no need or allowance for religious law. ObJ really screwed up granting Sharia.

State policing? Don't make me laugh. The whole personel of state police in Lagos for example will be made up of touts "agbero" who will be doing the bidding of their sponsor (tinubu).
You guys don't get the concept of State policing. It is not about personnel alone but how modernly efficient a State can make it's Police force.

Policing is not about bodies alone. Our federal Police is at least 70 years behind Police forces in the West because of under-investment in it's capacity to fight crime.

Science and Tech, like DNA capacity and biometric-enabled CCTV Camera, is replacing manpower.

Say what you want. I am sure State police will be a game changer for the SW, because the people and leaders of the region are sincere and peace-loving, even as I can't speak for any other region. We will see.

Ayodele is doing far too much. His obsession with politics and politicians is Unchristian.

Religious leaders stay away from politics worldwide and I don't get why it should be different with Nigeria if not that Nigerians worship political leaders as messiah whereas they are perceived as servants of the people in sophisticated climes.
PoliticsRe: Are Vigilantes Now Being Given Heavy Weapons? - Sheikh Murtala Sokoto by TopBanter: 2:22pm On Jun 25
This is why Presidnet Tinubu's effort on State Policing is to be applauded. Every State can create the police force they want.

Serious States, that genuinely want peace and security, can create professional and efficient police forces that will decimate crime while worthless State can endure with police that salutes terrorists and bandits.
PoliticsRe: It’s Sad Honestly by TopBanter: 9:17am On Jun 25
@OP.

Fuel subsidy removal means we want to competitively make as much as we can from our crude, endowment especially after gaining domestic refinining capacity through Dangote refinery, so that huge amounts of money some parasites were making can be available to political leaders to improve the lives of Nigerians.

Naturally PMS price must go up because it was being subsidised to provide Nigerians with "affordable petrol" but the situation was unsustainable and Nigeria was nearly bankrupt when Tinubu took over.

Improve your knowledge, skills and capacity for making money so you can afford PMS at the Nigerian rate which is still one of the cheapest in Africa the likes of Ghana, Kenya etal envy.

This has everything to do with Natasha angry who are you calling 'small minded' huh? You just open mouth and use words without understanding their meaning undecided

Aren't small minded people the ones who initially bought into the topic of this thread thinking it was somewhat can stand as fact on the web? Hasn't it been exponged already? So who is now small minded I who called it as it is or you who are trying to gaslight others into having ' small minds' like you? undecided
Lol. The small-minded thingy pained you ba? Obvious because you mentioned it like four times in one post. That's what you are though.

Small-minded. You and every other Nigerian man without pride in yourselves and innate awareness in your role as men to understand it is men, because society tends to believe women, who are destroyed beyond redemption by women who falsely shout rape and sexual harassment they provide nil proof of.

There is no proper and proud man , even if they hate Akpabio, who can be supportive of Natasha so long as she continues to be about talk and accusations with no proof. First he sexuallly harassed you. Next, he co spiked with Yaya Bello and Kogi Governor, Ododo, to assasinate you. Use your small-minded brain. Why does it take three very big men to take Natasha out?

Has Nigeria run out of cold and brutal killers and Assasins to the extent Akpabio cannot handle such a delicate matter on his own and must involve a past and sitting governor in a messy conspiracy?


No one is saying men must hate Natasha but, because they are victims of allegations that most will not be able to move beyond if false, not a single sensible man should support Natasha.


They should remain grounded by demanding she provides proof in solidarity with many men whose lives have been destroyed by false accuser and evil women like Natasha who has a history of weaponising gender victimisation to the extent even her fellow Nigerian women, rich and poor or powerful and ordinary, have totally abandoned her.


Yes you are small-minded and a simp because no other tag fits a man who , because of petty hatred of others and tribalism, cannot even see things from a man's perspective yet Nigerian women have shown they are an accurate barometer of uprighteness with how they have all refused to back Natasha.

Even if you hate Akpabio, for whatever reason, your insitinct as a proper man must compel you to demand she provides proof to gain your support. Anything else is letting your gender down. You are small minded bro and a betrayer of your gender. Probaly a shameless and lowly hireling of Lie-Tasha. No nicer way to put it.

Lol. You Lie-Tasha hirelings are so unintelligent. When has "asking out" a lady become a crime she must go and broadcast before the world to then insist she wants legal intervention?

Is something wrong with you? She dragged Reno Omokri publicly for sexual harrassment. Period.

Most sensible women have enough maturity and decency to say No to a man asking them out. They do not drag such before the world as if said man committed a crime.

PoliticsRe: Security: EKSG Begins Recruitment Of Over 500 Amotekun, Agro-Marshals by TopBanter: 10:27pm On May 13, 2025
Told you lot already. SW has gone regional in all but name. We will finance our own internal security. There is nowhere else, bar the SW, this type of organised and legally-backed fight against herdsmen menace is being convened in Nigeria currently.

Tinubu, unlike Buhari the Fulani supremacist, will not impede the legitimate effort of any region of Nigeria to protect themselves from violent and fundamentalist killers and marauders, from all corners of Africa, some are wantonly sponsoring for political, expansionist and relgious-fundamentalism gains.

What is crucial for leaders of regions to understand is that Tinubu cannot publicly tell them what to do to then appear partial and against any ethnic group or region.

It is leader of regions who must legitimately go about pursuing what will secure the optimal security of their people as Yorubas have been doing exemplarily now for years .

Id they make the move, Tinubi can then support their effort as the only President, since 1999, State policing is being discussed under progressively while OBJ and GEJ arrogantly declare Nigeria is "not ripe" for it whereas Buhari pretended to not even understand the concept..

If regions have money and focus, then they must fight to sponsor thousands into Amotekun-type security complementary forces to the NPF to tackle the fundmentalist Fulani existentialist threat we are facing as a nation.

Tinubu has limitations to his powers, as President of a nation toxically disunited along ethnic and religious lines, but what he will not do is deny regions, focused and ambitious enough to take charge of the security of their own lives and property, the right to do what they need to do.

What is happening in Benue, Plateau and States of the middle belt is traumatic and troubling but what manner of men are leaders of the Middle belt if they cannot form an Amotekun-style Corp, considering they need it most in Nigeria, to deal with marauders killing them like chickens daily?

President Tinubu will not reject such a move he will feel is their right to initiate since Amotekun, Hisbah etal exist already.

Yet Nigerian regions remain about weeping and noise instead of action. Good luck to us all and may God continue to proserve our lives.

Not true. Tinubu is a great politician who has built things. Even political platforms others use for their leadership ambitious thus making him a leader of leaders. OBj has nothing like that in his Armoury. Since leaving as President, OBJ has done nothing for his region or State of origin.

Compare him then with Tinubu who, after stepping down as Governor, continued to guide the politics of the South West and Lagos like a dedicated gatekeeper. How can Tinubu then view ObJ someone he has to "overshadow"?

Does Lionel Messi obsess about "overshadowing" Nicolas Jackson of Chelsea?

Tinubu has no regard for OBJ who is a soldier turned Politician. If Tinubu will reveal his human insipirations then it would be leaders like Awolowo, Nkrumah, Mandela etal. Those are leaders he can look up to.

Not OBJ who was a below average President some Nigerians rate highly only because they do not have the exposure to discern suitable comparison that woukd show m them how transformational leaders can be.
