Lmao! Stop clowning mbok!

You think if Buhari really desire to remove a senate president, he wil not?

The President of nigeria is about one of the most powerful in the world, he can actually remove any political office holder if he truly want, regardless of the brouhaha that may follow such.

We are all living witnesses to the way obj was removing senate presidents and governors at will.

I repeat, Buhari is too gentle for the type of politics we play in Nigeria, this is the only reasons party like PDP can still have a fighting chance at the Presidency at this time

The only way to sack a Senate president are as follows :

1) Force him to resign via blackmail


2) Get 2/3 of the house to sack him

3) Make him lose his seat by the tribunal.

Out of these three options, which one did you really think Buhari had?

Obj was able to sack Senate presidents in the house because the house was almost ALL PDP
getting 2/3 is very easy (plus adding egunje of course)

The APC are not so many in the house so how will that have happened?

gidzbobby:
one olori ebi of Onitire family, here in itire. He's known as a contractor and he's into politics, very evil man. u can be building ur house now and he passes by, he would ask you to gv him the contract. as long as you're building the house in itire. failure to do that, he would make sure that house doesn't stand. He flirts mostly with all these Yoruba actresses.

na wa o



Wahala too much for this $hithole country

So to make him a contractor is "by force " ?

Wahala awon eleyi ti poju

All these luxury manufacturers and their home countries don't bother to ask your source of income especially if it is an international customer.

Just bring your money.

they don't give a $hit

Just pay up

When they won't take care of their children.

Before you attack me and say his children do not suffer lack, note that care goes beyond money.
How would you care for your kids and act as a father, when you have 40 kids? At this rate, you are only marginally better than a sperm donor.

We aren't in medieval ages for crying out loud!

did you say 40 kids

You don't mean it

FILEBE:
We have lost it in this Generation! What is the meaning of all this rubbish post people write to gather attention? Believe me , Nigeria will have an increase in depressed and desperate youths in years to come of not now.

Aside the fact of existing fifth columnist, a group of surviving soldiers shared a video after the metele attack, complaining amongst others, the deployment of Innoson armoured vehicle being easily smashed to a pulp by the terrorists thereby leading to heavy casualties. The Nigerian Army should take no further risks and contract Proforce Asap!. May God protect our gallant men

Righteousness89:
My Brother I spent over 25yrs in Military settings and I will tell u that Nigerian Soldiers are not cowards!

Nigerian Soldiers have been the best in Land wars !

What happened is that in the quest for power and territorial authority for Nigeria, spies have been admitted into the military! Both in the schools and Recruitment!

And when u have Enemies within , you can't win until u destroy the House hold Enemies!

A lot of Enemies are within , many hv grown in rank and file!

That's just it

interesting

So who planted those spies

Foreign governments?

Racoon:
What is real in a president whose Service chiefs, IGP, Lai Muhammmed surbodinates openly violates his orders @ will without repercussion?

What is real about a man in which a presidential cabal have hijacked his own self, wife, family and government?

What is real about a president whose wife have been endlessly denouncing him openly as not being in charge of his government, never openly shared in his birthday joy or denounced his cloning controversy?

Don't follow blindly because of warped sentiments.

the wife denouncing him is the killer blow

jade14:
I get your point bro, buh truth be told its not wrong.

this is democracy ok, the president is not a God,

other countries still do worse than this, Zuma suffered worst than this during his time inside the very chambers whr senetors stood in front of him and called for this resignation and told him point blank his no longer needed.

he deserves what he got, studying the budget he presented you would find out this people are really clueless on how to move nigeria forward.

he has borrowed more money to fund budget than any past president with nothing to show for..

when international bodies called former president Jonathan "an intellectual buffoon " we cheered them and saw nothing wrong so bro whr is your conscience.

if I where to be there I will do worst to that idiot ( spits*)

exactly

winj3:
Nigerians are so sensitive and stupid when it comes to their definition of "respect" - rubbish like these trail presidents all over the world and they don't pay any attention to it - Only in illiterate Nigeria!

Jonathan and his tomato-seller-like wife disrespected the presidency more than any human on earth can ever do. His was the weakest and most caricature presidency, similar to people like Shonekan and Aguyi-Ironsi!

Buhari has desecrated the office of the presidency much more

That is why he is getting all the heat, and the country in disarray

musa234:
Politics has really divided us to in this country. Apc and it's supporters started this whole nonsense but now theres has degenerated into law makers. They should enjoy it.

indeed

this is just shameful what the country has become

obembet:
No, God go punish those idiot u mentioned above. God go punish APC and their supporters God go punish PDP and thier supporter. God bless Nigeria God bless those who want the best for this nation. God bless those who see APC and PDP as criminal and terriost. Nigeria shall rise again Nigeria is our Country and there is nothing u can do about it. Nigeria is the best country in the world Nigeria are bless with greet people, wonderful tribe. Hausa Igbo and Yoruba. If you love Nigeria, God bless u too.

you don talk better

queenfav:
Lol.. Nigerian men!Well,the issue of sharing properties cannot come in except the wife claims that as a relief in her Answer to the petition for dissolution of marriage. Come on, settlement of property and maintenance is an ancillary relief which your friend owes his wife if we want to be just here.
.
He is the one filing for divorce, she has given him 20 years of her life. She may even throw in how she supported him (even if it's not financial support ). He can't leave her now with an uncertain financial future, after she spent two decades building his.
.
If she claims for settlement of properties in the marriage, the judge usually would look at the circumstances of the case and facts supplied to reach a decision on what to give her.
Judges have a wide discretionary power to settle matrimonial properties as it deems just to do so.
God help the man if the case is heard by a divorced female judge. Lol..

.
My free legal advice (that i should have charged 10k for) is as follows -
The man should set up a meeting with his estranged wife and her lawyer in a legal setting where the issues can be discussed. That's proper procedure. If she doesn't want to see him, he can get his lawyer to write a letter requesting her attendance at the meeting.

The essence of meeting with her and maybe her lawyer is to discuss what she would be claiming. Would she be asking for maintenance or settlement fee of 500k monthly? Would she be asking for a house?That way an agreement can be reached before the divorce proceedings commences in court.
.
I have handled a divorce where the women only asked that the children's upkeep to be taken care of and a payment pattern was agreed upon. They told me they don't need the man's money, hence wd didn't claim for maintenance. The court won't give her what she didn't ask for, so your friend has to know what she would be claiming and prepare his case bearing that in mind.
.
In the end, the judge has a discretion to award reliefs sought by parties in a divorce proceeding, according to the facts and circumstances of the case at hand.
.If she specifically asks that she shares in the matrimonial properties, and the facts and circumstances of the case makes it justifiable that she does deserves a share, the court will order that.
.
The court can order settlement of properties owned by them jointly or individually, it all boils down to what would be just and equitable for the children of the marriage and parties involved. Let him prepare his mind in that direction. Who owns what or what anyone brought into the marriage doesn't really matter
because of the judge's discretion.
.
. The court can order settlement ie share any property belonging to any of the parties. The court usually considers the financial standing of the parties, their responsibilities going forward and the general facts/circumstances of the case.
.
Marriage is a partnership. Even when business partnerships end, nobody leaves empty handed except the ones that specifically didn't ask for anything and would not want anything to be given to them. It all boils down to what transpired between the man and his wife , the financial standing of both parties, children of the marriage and most importantly, the reliefs they seek from the court in the petition, cross petition or answer.

you have spoken well

Okay dear.

Well.. let's get on

A man did registry marriage (statutory) with his wife about 20years ago. Now the man is about to file for divorce.

What I want to ask is; I hope they won't share properties?

The man is the owner of the house they're living in.. he owns almost all the properties in the house.

He has two cars and the woman also have her own car.

So in the case of a divorce, I hope the woman will leave with only her car and other stuffs she acquired during the marriage and things she brought into marriage?

This is just pure cheating and WICKEDNESS


After 20 years of marriage, 20 years!!!!!!!

He wants to keep all the "properties" and send her away with just......

The prevalent mentality in Nigeria is VERY POISONINGS AND REPUGNANT

And that is why the men and women reason the way they do (always wanting to go one up against each other)


Damn

Nwodosis:
See the level of the used pants apprehensions in our society and Olamide is adding more to it by confirming the efficacy of used pants for rituals as his song lyrics!

Which song was that

franchasng:
My family was indirectly involved back then so I speak as an insider it was real.

The cause of disagreement between Ote$ and Dangote then was business niche trespassing.

I think they had an informal agreement not to trespass into each others core business niche; Ote$ was Oil/gas & banking while Dangote was cement, FMCG and never to trespass into oil and gas but Dangote cunningly used his wealth to sponsor his relative to become a major competitor in oil and gas; Rahamania Oil.

Its a long story anyway.

Dangote owe Nigeria a lot. He was so lucky; every Federal Government favoured him except Abacha government. Left for Buhari, he won't want to favor Dangote but he got no option now cos Dangote has grown so big he can't do without him.


FOREX waivers by FG to Dangote and some policies that made him sole distributor of certain nationwide used products contributed in making Dangote who he is today

I won't agree with you on some of those things you wrote tho

Dangote does not owe Nigeria a lot


Not every govt favoured him


And he was NEVER the sole distributor of cement.

BUA has always been in the picture.

I, as well as my family own substantial shares in DangCem tho (not too much, but it's good enough) so I know what I'm saying

franchasng:
They used to be sworn enemies but Goodluck Jonathan united them yet my Yoruba friends hate Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and anything Igbo.

Otedola was almost going bankrupt before Goodluck became Acting President; soteh he ran away to Ghana due to debts and threats from business rivals like Dangote and Dangote brother that owns Rahamania Oil. They tried to kill Otedola, they got him stranded on an elevator at VI, he escaped, and ran to Ghana but immediately Goodluck came in, he brought him back and showered him with contracts and made peace between him and Dangote, ever since then they had been great friends.

Igbos are peace makers, the most peaceful tribe in Nigeria followed by Yoruba

So that story of stranded elevator and trying to poison otedola was actually true?

Back then I used to dismiss it as a rumour

NwanyiAwkaetiti:
Lol... The guy has been friend zoned for d fact she called him Boy plus laughed at him.


I will order that chicken o but I'll also ask him to order... It only takes a swipe of card to settle the bill ryt?

I know Awka-etiti very well
Is that where you are really from?

franchasng:
very valid point you made, now I see

I'm very sure you must have seen this play itself over and over again too

franchasng:
I didn't see your comment before I commented, you just said the truth.

Let me share a story that happened some years back while we were still growing up.

There was this very fine chick; around 19/20 in my street then, many well to do guys with amazing future and great family background were toasting this girl, I heard she is so prideful and snub guys a lot.

I learnt one cool guy whose dad is one of the richest in the estate then who was also studying medicine abroad came back and saw this girl and fell madly in love at first sight cos the girl as I can remember back then was too fine and hot bra.

I heard this prideful girl snubbed this guy so many times saying who is he, that she doesn't care about who he is. They said this guy tried repeatedly and even begged the girls best friend to help him talk to her but she bleeped this great guy up, and guess what

One guy serving a man living in same compound with girl caught this girl red handed being strafed by one useless, jobless, no-future-ambition guy that just came to spend holiday with his uncle.

You need to see this guy they caught this girl with. Guess what again, the guy that caught them said he tried to maintain not until that same big guy approached him, asking him if he knows how he could get that girls no, a day after that, the guy again caught this same girl being strafed by same NFL guy in their compound, he said out of anger he confronted the girl that don't u have sense That why are u girls so stupid!

Said the girl shunned him and even warned him to stop puttimg mouth in her matter, the guy said the thing pain am, he went and reported the girl to her dad and they beat her blue black


So chicks and their useless mentality at times can keep u wondering what goes on in their brain, reason I am so scared of giving birth to female children in future because they know how to fall their parents hand and go after the most useless guys even when great guys are coming their way

A lot of girls re fickle minded

At a certain stage of their life, they are looking for "thrills" and "fun"

These which they think a regular guy who is probably nerdy or not much into reckless life CANNOT offer them

That is why they are shunned for the "roughians" because of the "thrill"

By the time they realise their folly, it's often too late

The good guys are hitched and the "rough" boys have no long term plans for them.

I have seen this play itself over and over again over the decades of my existence on earth

nextstep:
Ladies of nowadays, would they be willing to stand by a man on the beginning days of his hustle? In 2005 they would just laugh at him because he's hustling on the street. 2009 they will be complaining that he has only small shop. When he insists to put profit back in his business, they would call him stingy, that he should spend on their hair or get them iPhone. It's only now after 13 years of hard work that the profits are coming in, they will now say: "what a successful guy", yet they would not stand by him through the hard times. SMH

And our young boys of nowadays are no different: most will not see that he worked hard and consistently for 13 years, enduring all the hardships and setbacks that accompany all businesses. They will now either want to steal from him, or try to use ritual to be like him.

This is very inspiring, and encourages me to continue my line of business, because it will get better the more I work on it.



I agree... I was thinking the same thing.




This is a very very excellent point. Even me sef, I get distracted by the thought of: "this government is worse than the past one", but in truth, this guy shows you can make it no matter what. Stop complaining and keep working, don't be wasteful, and keep the dream alive. Thanks bros for your insight.

you got that right

koyyes:
The guy was thinking he was missing out not knowing that that's the right age any one should be thinking of what to do with their lives.

Our folks lied to us big time by locking us up in the house to read book day and night and telling us there is gold inside the book.

Who book help now?

EXACTLY

What happened to men and 4 generations. All generations I've been seeing are women. Does it mean men don't Live long?

Four generations are more common abroad

Especially in Asia (Japan/South Korea.. mehn these people live long o)

How four generation of men go dey common?

MarianaTrench:
This transgender nonsense is the fallout of an over-permissive society

if the right wing, conservative system we had in centuries past weren't so uptight and useless, these "overpermissiveness" would not have even cropped up in the first place

now extreme leftism have taken over

StevenOba:
There are homeless people in UK too. That's the ills of a big city. I just wish our country can build shelters that will really help.

there are homeless shelters abroad

Which one does your $hithole country have?

It's the ills of a big city, true, but how the govt makes effort to alleviate the problem is what counts

budaatum:
A man has died hours after he was found unresponsive in an underpass opposite the Houses of Parliament.

The man, who was named as Gyula Remes, 43, was found by British Transport Police at 23.30 GMT on Tuesday outside Westminster Underground Station.

Officers administered first aid and he was taken to a central London hospital but he died in the early hours.

Communities Secretary James Brokenshire said he would be asking Westminster City Council to investigate his death.

The Metropolitan Police said it was not treating the death as suspicious.

Dawn, who used to sleep opposite the man, said she thought his death was related to the drug Spice and that he had choked on his own vomit.

"He was the most gorgeous gentleman you would like to meet," she said, adding: "It's killing me this, I can't cope with this, I really can't. I keep expecting him to walk around here."

She said he had just found a job and was expecting to be off the streets soon.

Sara, 38, from Essex, has slept in the underpass for the past month.

"That poor man has lost his life and everyone else comes out the exit and they're just walking by as if nothing's happened.

"He was blue last night and everyone was just walking past him like he didn't matter."

Shadow housing minister, Melanie Onn, said the area where the man was found has becoming increasingly popular with homeless people.

Ms Onn said: "Just last week I saw police resuscitating someone in the same spot.

"It's a go to area because it's dry and warmer than outside, but it's wholly inappropriate to stay there. There's not even any wash facilities."

Mr Brokenshire said he was committed to ensuring independent reviews into the deaths of rough sleepers were conducted, so that support could be targeted in the right way.

In February a homeless man was found dead in an underpass that leads from the station to the Palace of Westminster.

And your point is??

Nigeria is globally known as the headquarters of EXTREME POVERTY And an elder in the committee of $hithole countries

AUSVINS:
The passport is just a piece of paper,our attitude is what is making the passport seem worthless it is just like blaming the devil for criminal acts.Is it the passport that is responsible for our yahoo yahoo or kidnapping or even our naked greed to make money at all cost?I will say no.Everything we we do both good or bad reflects on the passport even our comments on nairaland.So if we want the world to respect our passport then we the people must first earn that respect by changing our attitude. Peace.

you have said it all

drshrewd:
[b]Nigeria is a great country and gaint of Africa despite our numerous challenges. Many Africans countries see Nigeria just the way we see most developed countries. Can you imagine that Nigeria economy is far bigger than the rest of west African economy put together!. Only our intertainment industry alone is bigger than most African countries economy! State economy like Lagos, Rivers, Kano, etc, are bigger than most African countries economy.
Its unfortunate that we insult and denigrate ourselves. you just need to travel to some of these African countries for you to understand these facts.
Though we have not really realise our full potentials as a country due to bad leaders but that doesn't mean we will stop believing in Nigeria
Again, for those of us saying that Nigeria passport is useless will not really understand how our passport is valued and difficult to get. Expertrate workers can easily relate to this especially those in the oil and gas field. Most pass through hell before securing Nigeria visa.

You have a point tho

why the hidden post tho
Someone mentioned me in that comment but did not get to read it
