Elumelu is owner of UBA na.
Where he wan retire go!

Jim Ovia is also the founder and owner of Zenith Bank. He has to retire due to Corporate Governance practice but definitely will be running certain affairs behind closed doors.

More healthy years to him.

I just laugh when people say VDM cannot win. Merely not pursuing the case should be credited to him. See as FG deh follow Elrufai and Malami ba, the day FG decides not to pursue the case, those guys will be free.
There is more to the behind than is actually shown. Blord knows that also, you can see from his disposition and that of other lawyers there, they really appreciate VDM efforts in mellowing.
Sowore is Big, VDM is also Big, both just have different spaces.
In all these issues, don't create enemies for your self because you want to support someone. They will settle and you will left alone.

greatseed:
Funny thing is that I dislike both Vdm & blord. But Sowore has yet again proved that he knows the law & constitution, proved himself once more amidst all the gibberish dat one called very darkboy was shouting like a fake spinster everywhere! Well done Sowore dat vblack boy was not born when you had been fighting a cause even with the then military govt. So dnt blame d genz guy. He is not informed & unfortunately for him, his gullible followers are worsening his case by making him feel important. What a big shame

Una go just deh talk. You think if VDM did not consent to not opposing the bail, Blord will be out?
Even the Marshall, the lawyer to Sowore and VDM appreciated VDM.

Wetin I notice be say, Burna and Wiz fans na the same. Imagin say na either of them with Davido get this issue, people for no wait for the real gist o, the two fan base for don deh lamba each other teh teh.

This life.... nothing lasts forever.
We will all get old and die. 100 years from now non of us here will be alive then

Truly, but while we live, may we live a fulfilling life, a life of impact, a life of legacy, may we enjoy the life we share with others and bring offspring that will appreciate the life we gave them.

Not a thief.

But an insensitive person. She should be prosecuted for this.

If she is arrested and remanded in prison now, they will say it's oppression. Some people will demand her release that the law is been used to oppress her and that it's online cruise so it should remain online.
It's so sad.

This trend of always once Obi does something, it is seen differently. Other presidential hopefuls also does those things, but they are not scrutinized. The current government also did thing's we don't like when they were in Opposition, but Nigeria Politics is what it is.

But nevertheless, you might not like Peter Obi, his way of politics or his handling of government when he was governor, but in my Opinion, Obi might not become president, but he has set a pace from his region. There is now realignment from the south east, building connections across regions, those having government appointments are trying to do well to have a record and be in the people good books (because they either have Presidential target or something bigger).

They are learning from Peter Obi mistakes and building popularity or acceptance across regions. He is preparing a way for them and they should appreciate him when the time comes.

Peter Obi is a Pace setter, is a Trailblazer, a Vanguard, a Forerunner, Unsung Hero of the south eastern (Igbo) race for the President of Nigeria whether they like it or not. I think He should be contented with it wether he becomes president or not.

Once they don't like you, anything that looks like you, they start attacking

Tinubu is not to be blamed jare. I don't think the president can do much, he can only try. This ideology of Boko can only be Erased by the Mercy of God.

I think this thing did not happen in Iran....damn and life will just go on. If it happened in Iran, there would have been protests and burning of flags.

Just be safe out there please.

States have been using LG funds for collateral ever since because the money comes to the state and state later share to LG. Remember the SC judgement on autonomy isn't implemented yet so governors still use those funds. That's my point.

However, why does Adeleke suddenly wants 300b now when he didn't borrow a penny for 3 years?.

Has local government funds in Osun been released? If the funds are released there would not be need to accuse the governor.
Sure thing, State government can borrow
The APC chairman should speak in context, because saying Adeleke wants to use use LG as collateral is completely wrong and not feasible. Then if he says the LG funds is what he means, the state government can use FAAC allocations which will include both the state and LG allocation particularly to meet needs of the state.
But this is politics they are playing anyways, they can lay up accusations as long as it is to portray the government bad.

callthefred:
Ask questions don't always show ignorance. First, till today LG funds are sent to states not LG directly, also when govt takes loan banks often want it to be deducted from source which means na CBN go deduct and send to lender monthly so na the remaining go reach the state.

In this year's budget the govt wants to take loan, something Adeleke didn't do in 3 years so why election year?

Both Adeleke and APC are all useless and terrible in leadership. I'm from Osun and that's a fact.

Did you read what he wrote?
Are you saying the Local governments will serve as collateral for Loan. States do borrow and use their future finances as collateral and not local government, local government are autonomous and can't be used as collateral
Or you are not aware of it.

How will people that passed through the 4 walls of a school ever say anything like this? How will it even work? This is what happens when thuggery is given a higher priority over intellect because a party that has intellectuals will never ever think of making such highly unreasonable accusation.

So let's assume for stupidity purposes that this is true, what happens if they can't repay the loan? The bank will take over the local governments? Jesus! See the thought process of a bunch of so called adults. Something a child will say and they should flog that child silly.

He whom the gods want to kill, they first make mad. Osun APC is starting to run mad.

By the way, since I saw the thread about Omisore dragging them to court, I already knew Mr Press9jatv is about to pay Nairaland for another front page propaganda. It's just sad Seun has allowed himself and his platform to be used for such. I don't know what they've promised you, but they can't be trusted. They'll only use you and dump you after their devilish aims have been achieved which will never be achieved in this instance.

And you will see people defending it. Using the LGs as collateral, how does that work. Because they don't like Adeleke, they will just believe anything to spite him.
Politics in Nigeria is something else.

DeGLORIOUS:
It's still a useless question. Are you telling me that conventional banks have not suffered this form of attack? The operators have warned their customers from dishing out details through phone calls. The fault of the fintech is their inability to trace such transactions and recover the funds

Who told you the Fintech don't warn their customers against giving out their details? Who also told you that Fintech don't have the ability to trace those transactions?
If you have not experienced a cyber attack, don't conclude it can't happen to you. Just be careful out there. Hacks can happen through links you click on not just giving details. This technological era comes with so many loopholes.
Like I said, just be careful out there.

Every state wants to be at the centre. When PDP was in power, most states were at the centre. But power was taken from PDP and it is the turn of APC to hold the centre.
I give it PBAT, the man has been consistent and also with his loyalists. They never gave up. Now PBAT is the centre.
Maybe after he finishes 2030, then another party can arise.

techbro1:
This is good but this is a private business. What's with the fanfare and the banner claiming he's the most performing governor? 😂😂😂

How is it a private business?
The Land belongs to the government, the money used to build infrastructure belongs to government. If the government don't provide the conducive environment, how will investment come in.

lightwind:
Even if he loses the election ba

He will not allowed to be removed just like that!


No worry dem go do am Gambian way.
$

He will not lose the election. ADC, whoever they project cannot win Tinubu. I can guarantee that. My prayers and hope is that the election should be peaceful.

When PBAT wins 2027 elections, hope she will not change mouth.
No government can be 100% good, but Tinubu is doing the best he can.
Then politically, Tinubu will complete his 2 terms...8 years.
I trust Tinubu for that, he will not allow to be removed just like that.

You cannot be a racist and still say you love Christians. That's hypocrisy. Christians too are black people.

November24:
Pride.
My husband nor dey let me hear word for house

No be pride o
Na just Slogan to show representation.
Which school you go, beat chest with your slogan. Every school get e slogan no matter how small.
Meanwhile NOI deserves every recognition and award given to her.
Career, she is exceptional.
Political appointment record, No stain, not even allegation.

Basic but important drugs are no longer in our hospitals any longer. Is it because the cases of snake bites are not common or they just don't feel the need to have it?
Meanwhile when even Ekiti Assembly will budget 68 million naira for primary health care, mostly maybe common with State government, how will they see the need to have such kind of medicine available.
It's so sad really.
May her soul find rest in the bossom of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Why dem reveal John surname but withheld surname of khan and mintra

What I don't understand is that, Bwala has been engaging opposition on arguments and not policies. He is expected to give direction, advise and communicate the policies of the president to the public.
If he wants to attack the opposition, he should attack with policy progress and achievements.

Why would people be happy that their president fell. Before such events, the protocol of that country is supposed to check the area including for ground objects. The president obviously stepped on something that should have been removed while checking the area.
Meanwhile, no president will achieve 100%, there must be something left undone. But President Tinubu is trying his best and he has done somethings other presidents could not do. He can only do the ones he is able to do and bring new things that will favor the country in a long run.

Racoon:
Statement that was well captured on video? Same way Nyesom Wike denied calling Yerima a fool. These kind of arrogant people thinks Nigeria is still in the era of black and white TV.

Even black and white no deh lie, na just color difference.

Fela and Wizkid are not comparable. Wizkid has done his own part but he is no place compared to Fela. Fela work span both music and political sphere. In those days, Music was used to talk to government also, even these days Music is still used, only Men will balls dear do such.
Wizkid tattood Fela on his body, I believe that is even a permanent tattoo that can't be removed to show that he Wizkid Honours Fela. He even grew in the Shrine.
Wizkid would have handled this maturely, he would have attacked Seun personally and praised Felas effort, while asking Seun to go make a name for himself, which he has in his own right, it would have given Wizkid more respect.

The more they keep releasing statements, the more messier it gets, insults from people that wouldn't even cough at their presence.
When you know the truth and have tried to put it out but it's still in doubt, just allow time to tell.

okpouman:
this man doesnt understand what reno was saying,reno meant that moses as a direct rendition doesnt have any proper etymological meaning,but the original hebrew rendition which is supposed to be the correct original egyptian name used by the hebrew bible which is moshe has an etymological meaning similar to yoruba.What this father could or should have done is prove reno wrong whether the etymological original hebrew rendition which is supposed to be the orinal name in the original eygptian language has a similar etymological meaning with the lukumi yoruba..

You didn't understand what the father is also trying to say.
etymologically Moses is Moshe, in different language. Moshe is a name used by the Mitzrayims, which is Hebrew. For Reno to say the name is meaningless, a people that used the name even as Moshe obviously has a meaning to them. If Reno says the name is meaningless, does it also mean, Lukumi, etymologically Oluku mi in yoruba meaning My Friend is also meaningless to the yoruba people.
For someone to call you My friend, should mean a great deal.

The Father and Reno are just trying to show their intellectual prowess.

wellmax:
At the mention of the word Yoruba every Igbo man becomes startled.

Una mind no go touch ground.

Why must everything be tribal.

Nigeria that can't even produce pencil na drone they want to start useless country abi this idiots think say we be fool

Una go just deh underrate the potential of young Nigerians and Nigeria. Forget say things no deh go well for Nija. We 'You' have the potential of solving a problem. Don't underrate yourself, believe and you can make something out of your nothing.

In Africa, I reason every Activitist or freedom fighter or coupist wants power for himself. Once he grabs it, whatever it takes to keep it he will do.
I don't envy their strategies, I just look on.
Create value for yourself and and if you are called to serve in any of their enterprise, grab it and make and do the best you can. Don't get stained while serving.

There are things unknown in this country. Watch how more of this SPY police will emerge among the political class.
Congratulations to her, she has marked her place in the system of things.

This is really sad, fans needs to do better
