KobolanderSegun: It's because the returnee is aa brokey dude. Where in highbrow places do you see people fighting over a wrist watch ? even in Mushin you don't see such thing. The dudes parents must live in isale eko or some thug ridden area. The brokey dude should have gone to Ikoyi, Victoria Island to see the life Nigerians are living..I will not tell him to go to Banana Island otherwise he would think he was in heaven. Brokey. Stockbroker. See thinking like that of a malu. So everyone must be in Ikoyi or Victoria island or banana island to enjoy Nigeria? No wonder your name is Segun. |

The issue is that most of us, because we are not in the category, don't understand the volume of warped mischief-makers out their online telling lies, spreading fake news and fabricating lies out of thin air in an attempt to work an angle or seek followers/likes/retweets etc
Every so called "real life narrative" online should be taking with a pinch of salt. If true though, then the guy is indeed an irritating nag. You'd have thought it's a 12 year old writing from his tone. Them lie no reach that of you and your fellow agbadorians. Una lies Dey shame the devil. |

Adebayo82: I think I may have complicated the matter by choosing the option that I would not give biometrics because my existing biometrics are valid until September 2026. Unfortunately, my visa application was denied then around 2016 and biometrics valid for 10years
My biometrics are still valid until September 2026, but I have recently obtained a new passport with a 10-year validity and I attached a new passport to the document when I am submitting the neccessary document. I am not sure whether the visa office considers the passport validity period or the biometrics validity date when issuing a visa.
If they rely on the biometrics validity, I may only be granted a visa of about five or six months if my application is approved.
Can I raise a webform to draw their attention to the fact that I am now willing to give new biometrics, even though I initially selected the option not to? I hope this will not be seen as a red flag, or should I just remain calm and wait for now? Please, I need your advice.
Also, please, if you are offering advice, do not come into someone’s DM saying otherwise or requesting money without permission, and I have never drop my contact details here, unless get in touch with me through a registered email on the Nairaland forum.
Yesterday, Sunday 12th January, someone on this platform who is well known responded when I asked a simple question about how to track the progress of my application on the IRCC portal that I submitted my visa application on 20th December. Within seconds of posting my message, the person contacted me on WhatsApp, took screenshots of my messages, and claimed he could track my application for a fee.
I was surprised because I have never shared my WhatsApp number on this platform. Please let us all be mindful and cautious. There are many scammers here pretending to offer help while seeking personal information to scam people. I blocked the person immediately. call name…. Name and shame. |

Politics › Re: Katsina Govt Defend Plan To Release 70 Bandits As Part Of Peace Deal by tpain121: 12:19pm On Jan 12 |
SJMag1: The Katsina state government has defended its decision to initiate the release of 70 persons suspected of involvement in banditry, describing the move as part of a broader peace agreement with armed groups operating in the state.
The state commissioner for internal security and home affairs, Nasir Muazu, on Saturday said the action was intended to consolidate a peace deal reached between affected communities and what he described as repentant bandits across several local government areas.
Muazu’s remarks followed public outrage over a leaked government letter requesting judicial intervention to facilitate the release of suspects currently facing criminal prosecution.
According to the commissioner, at least 15 local government areas were involved in the peace arrangement, which he said had led to the release of about 1,000 abducted persons by armed groups.
“The release of these suspects is similar to what happens during wartime, where warring parties exchange prisoners,” Muazu said.
Controversy over the decision began last week after a letter dated 2 January and marked ‘secret’ surfaced online.
The letter was issued by the Katsina state ministry of justice and addressed to the state’s chief judge.
In the document, the ministry requested the intervention of the Administration of Criminal Justice Monitoring Committee (ACJMC) to facilitate the release of the detained suspects.
Signed by the director of public prosecutions, Abdur-Rahman Umar, the letter stated that a list of 48 suspects accused of various banditry-related offences had been forwarded to the ministry of justice by the ministry of internal security and home affairs.
The ministry said the proposed release was intended to serve as one of the conditions precedent for the continuance of the peace accord deal signed between the frontline local governments and the bandits.
The letter further disclosed that while a few of the suspects had been arraigned before the federal high court, most were still in custody awaiting trial at various magistrates’ courts across the state.
In addition, a separate list of about 22 inmates facing trial before different high courts in Katsina was also submitted for possible release under the same peace arrangement.
The ministry urged the chief judge to take necessary action, citing section 371(2) of the administration of criminal justice law of Katsina state, 2021, which outlines the powers of the criminal Justice monitoring committee.
The disclosure triggered widespread criticism from Nigerians, including legal practitioners and civil society actors, who warned that releasing suspects accused of serious crimes could undermine the rule of law, deny justice to victims, and embolden criminal networks.
Responding to the criticism, Muazu said the peace deal had already yielded tangible results, particularly the release of abducted persons across several communities.
He listed figures from different local government areas, including Sabuwa (310), Bakori (125), Danmusa (60), Dutsinma (62), and Safana (36), among others.
“World over, after wars are fought, there are usually prisoner exchanges,” he said.
Citing Nigeria’s civil war and past negotiations with Boko Haram, the commissioner argued that releasing detainees as part of peace negotiations was not unprecedented.
“The issue is not whether an offence was committed or not, but ensuring peace,” he said, adding that prisoner exchange is not a new thing in the history of war and peace.
Muazu maintained that the actions of the ministry of justice and the courts did not violate any existing laws, insisting that anyone dissatisfied with the decision was free to seek redress through the courts. Trump must hear this. This people no Dey hear word! |
