If this is true then that's what probably got into his head. Smh.

Please let us leave out his Dad out for now. The old man served and should be accorded his respect.

I am not sure his Dad or any Dad will be really happy to watch his son have a shouting match with a representative of the President.

I will not be surprised if his Dad is already reaching out to people to intervene. His father may not like the fact that it was even his own son the retired Senior Officer sent on such non-core military task that doesn't count for promotion.

That's not fame but notoriety that can lead to his being dismissed from the armed forces or posted to one obscure place where he will prefer to quit than to take such posting. If he's in Sambisa or our embassy in Polynesia, will he have time for land matters? No nah.

The Young Northern officer is a Hero. He deserve a national honor and promotion. Wike goofed big time

Achor1111:
Yarima is not a fool, but Yarimo is...
If you know it, complete it.

In the North, Yarima is a special name for Royalty. Any Yarima is a Prince. This Young Northern officer is a Prince. But Yarimo is Yoruba version and it has no meaning.

Most South West people wish they are from North. That's why they associate themselves with North by using Northern names. But they don't know how to properly apply those names.
For instance
* Yarima- Yarimo
* Sarki. - Sarki
* Magaji. - Mogoji
* Hajia. - Alhaja


Funny people

victorazyvictor:
The officer acted f00lishly.

I live in Abuja, if only you know how so called northerners, expecially military and alhajies are seeing non Muslims who are not from north u will shake head. Wike is eslxactly what they want, not the likes of Jonathan they can easily subjugate.

Na lie you dey lie

d142475:
Nigerians are so shallow. A lot is at play in this confrontation. Let me break it down in simple terms:
a) The Military officer(s) are/were in the wrong. Regardless of how you feel about Wike, the officer should produce the documents of the land. This officer clearly thinks that he and his Oga are above civilian officials. Also, he was clearly disdainful to the police officer, a law enforcement officer of the Nigerian state. If you think our politicians are arrogant and disdainful towards us, the military is ten times worse. This young officer showed the arrogance of the military towards law and order and towards civilian authorities,

b) There is the subtle North-South dynamics at play here. I can bet my liver that if this FCT minister were El-Rufai or Bala Muhammed or Muhammed Bello, this officer of Northern extraction would not have been this openly defiant towards him. He would have said "Rankadede."
The fact is Northerners think they are superior to the rest of the country, especially Christians, and they can't stand an assertive and effective Christian politician like Wike. This officer is clearly expressing the sentiments of the Muslim North, who think that FCT ministry is their birthright, and who are still agrieved that Tinubu chose Wike, a Christian Southerner, as the FCT minister.

I am not a fan of Wike, but it's good we see the dynamics at play in this interaction

Trash talk.
The Young officer did his job excellently well. He need to be promoted

The Chief of Naval Staff who ordered the soldier in question is even retired...

You wey sabi law pass me, kindly educate me on the effect of an order given to a soldier by a retired soldier, who for all intent and purposes, is now a 'bloody civilian' like the rest of us

The Galant Northern Solider just showed the difference between the North and your Region (South West). If na una person now, he for just ben down dey great Wike. E go even dey beg am join

buygala:
Since a General is a General until death, why is he retired and not commanding soldiers against ISWAP?


You are seriously testing my patience

Someone has been appointed to Command Soldier in the fight against I SWAP.

For your information. Retired Soldiers are more deadly and powerful than those still serving

BondRiv:
It is only in Nigeria you read things like these. Who controls the Pentagon? Pete Hegseth, a civilian is the U.S. Secretary of War (formerly Secretary of Defense), mention that person in the U.S. military that will disobey an order from him? There is no general or whoever who outranks Pete Hegseth's civilian authority in the military. Let you guys keep deceiving yourselves in this country.

This Stockholm Syndrome some of you have with previous military rule in Nigeria is a problem. That is why they make some of you do frog jumps and lie in gutters. Wike was even too nice. Go to any NYSC camp and see how a soldier will react to a corper saying they are not foolish after being called so.

This is a civilian government.

Kamaru, This is not US . Besides, no US Minister will call a US Soldier a "fool"


Also, have you ever seeing a US Minister barging into People's private properties to revoke their land?

Weather retired or not. A general is always a general even in death. Secondly, Wike does not have right to be barging into People's private properties without Court order.

Thirdly, the Land was legally acquired during the administration of Buhari. But Wike want to grab the land and possibly resell it or give it to one of his Son's

buygala:
There have been situations where Senior officers denied giving such orders when kasala burst, leaving the junior officer holding the bag..I know this because as a lawyer, I have been in many Court Martial cases where such happened...

In the absence of a written and verifiable order, that soldier go use im hand carry shit

His head is still hot....He isn't aware that those who head are hotter than his are not in the army, but in politics determining who lives and who dies...

Carry your yeye lawyer commot for here. If you know law as you claimed, you should know the Soldier obey the last command from their superior. Even when it involves life or death.

You should also know that, only the President have powers to give orders to Soldiers. Even the Minister of Defence can not on his own give orders to Soldiers. Such orders MUST come from the President through the Minister of Defence.

That Young Soldier is doing his job and Nigerians are proud of him. When next you see a Soldier, no do anyhow oo. Cause Solider no send you with your Lawyer shit.

Lawyer wey no know law. Hmmmmm

Benharyor:
Na you sabi law pass....landlorder.....so he's acting on order greater than presidency that sent wike abi...dey Mumu unaself, d guy was just stupid to be used as prawns bait lol....Regardless the oga I'm sure it cant be chief of naval staff that can be greater than a minister in this present setting,claiming everything was acquired the right way! Shows how slow thought he was not even when you're acting on official duty...

Did the President send Wike to the Young officer's Boss private property? The Young Northern Solider put Wike wey una dey fear in his place. By now Wike go dey regret wetim make am go there

Konquest:
True that.

A lot of the random posters here are rambling on praising this young Naval officer without realizing that they are encouraging indiscipline outright indiscipline in the military. It's what Lt. Yerima said that triggered Nyesom Wike while the young officer kept on replying him. BUT the famed, hardworking transformer of the FCT (Nyesom Wike) too has to learn to comport himself so that in the tables are NOT turned against him by uninformed public opinions and a section of the media whenever he loses his temper.

Kamaru go and discipline the young officer na

nairalanda1:
What the soldier did was wrong.

I know, so I will say this...I am not a tinubu supporter and wike is a awful minister of the fct with corruption all over him

But he is the minister of the fct. And if a soldier is disobeying a minister of the republic, and people are hailing him because tinubu, it shows that people who are in opposition are just as lawless as those in government.

Obey constituted authority

But then again we have a habit in this country of not following the rules and authority. Whether we support tinubu or not. See MC olumo

But the fact that we have a government of essentially bad people does not make yerima action right

Would those praising the lieutenant be doing so if it was an Obi appointee as fct minister? And would those critical of the lieutenant be praising him if obi was president?

We are so blinded by politics that we don't want to do the right thing.

Like I said, if you read this and think I support tinubu, think again. I would say this if it was obi as president or anyone else . If you like , support the lieutenant. Don't complain when you see a bad situation right. Like I always say, apc won't have been in charge if opposition was united.

You are not a Tinubu supporter as you claimed. But ended up talking down on Obi
Only Tinubu's paid agents talk down on Pbi

simeonabio:
Remove Tinubu Bsc accounting...it is fake

True talk

Abdulhakeem7:
It's not a matter of Tinubu being afraid of the North, it's a matter of the faulty system of Nigeria . Gunmi didn't just start today, it was the same under Bubu

If Nigeria is faulty, who is the President? You statement just indict Tinubu as an incompetent President.

If Nigeria. System is faulty, is Tinubu not supposed to fix it? He is the President and COMMANDER of the entire Armed forces and Police. Yet he is scared if the almighty North.


Ohh I forgot. He is a Yoruba man

ebukal67x:
I find it hard to believe that a US soldier would make such a video. He should be identified and disciplined.

Why will he be disciplined? He is a Hero that need to be commended

madridguy:
250 billion for wetin This is a big lie.

Tinubu is the President oo. He can do worst. The money is even small sef.

Salewa97:
We are waiting for Trump to act first now.

Let the USA government first invade their own government

This one think say na local moto park stuffs or Cultism we dey talk about here.

Joeboypondeck:
you get luck brr

Stop capping here 😹💔

You.must be an FRSC officer.

pdppower:
Yes, i support him. There is no much difference between what Gummi has been saying and doing from what Nnamdi Kanu said and did. Why is one in detention and the other one is walking freely?

The South West man in Aso Rock dey fear Northeners like fire. That's why he has not called Gumi t order.

HgAkpobomeEr:
The Wike faction is making progress.

Wike and Tinubu's faction you meant to say

Salewa97:
There is no need for panic.

Trump would be dealt with politically in the USA.

We are not in a haste

Tilumbu after Donald Trump' is don with him

Wike and his Oga Tinubu dey always pee in their pants. At the mention of Donald Trump's name

HacheNoire:
Fear you said!

My ancestors saw fear and had religion as a way of life that was imposed on them.

But fear never been in my dictionary where western imperialism stands.

What should I fear? That I detest the slave masters or intruders?

Where does fear come in? Oh! You mean I am scared of the United States or the entirety of North America?

Hello! I am not mentally conquered. I got pride, dignity and demand respect. I don’t bow to my oppressors.

Lies


You just dey give yourself hope

HacheNoire:
😁🤣😁🤣

Gibberish!

This imperialist still always forget that it’s 2025. People are wiser now!

Regime change? 😁🤣😁🤣😁

Mods should please move thread to jokes section.

Swear say fear no dey catch you right now?

Even Tilumbu dey fear, talk more of you wey be his paid agent. No forget say you and Tilumbu are from West

The fear fear region

Adblg0610:
Nigeria borrowed some money from people and companies around the world by selling something called Eurobonds.
Lots of investors wanted to buy these bonds, they offered about $13 billion, even though Nigeria only wanted $2.35 billion.
That means many people trusted Nigeria and believed it would use the money wisely and pay it back.The money Nigeria gets will help the government pay for important things next year, like schools, roads, and hospitals.
People from many countries, like the UK, the U.S., Europe, and Asia, bought these bonds. Some Nigerians bought them too, showing they believe in the government’s plans to make the country better.
The President and finance leaders said they are happy because this shows that the world has confidence in Nigeria

Carry your propaganda commot for here

Bitter truth.


This is what Tinubu kept celebrating. Came up with lie lie gdp figures. Then come online to celebrate it

StoryHaven:
Do you know how many sites I met my books? The only good thing is authors names are still intact.
I didn't bother to find out if they are printing it or using my kdp link.

It doesn't bother you that those sites upload your work without your permission?

Besides, I thought there is a superior site that is responsible for ensuring that other sites use their original contents only or they use content that they have the permission of the original owner.

aribisala0:
According to public records
Tinubu was eligible for NYSC

Date of Graduation: June 22, 1979
Degree: Bachelor of Science in Business Administration
University: Chicago State University
Date of Birth: March 29, 1952


The NYSC (National Youth Service Corps) was established by Decree No. 24, which was signed on May 22, 1973.



Does he have a certificate?

There are many others

E.g

Ngozi Okonjo Iweala

No he doesn't. Sawore is even better than him sef. We know Sawore attended University. We know his former School mates. We've also seeing his certificates..

However, we are not sure if Tilumbu really attended any School, we no see his certificates and no one has testified that he attended the same school with Tilumbu

nairavsdollars:
This BusinessDay cartoon captures it all

You mean, Tinubu is a push and start President?
