CelebritiesRe: Cossy Orjiakor Spits Fire Over The Abuse & Arrest Of Strippers At An Abuja Club by wirinet(m): 7:59am On Apr 23, 2019
Blue3k:
The police shut that place down because it wasn't registered. Lol did I call police? They should follow law like the other strip clubs.



If zoning laws dont exist anyone can build stripclub next to an elementary school if that's case. If the issue isn't zoning its fact they didnt register business. Im sure zoning rules exist but they're ignored like building code. That's why building collapse every once in awhile.
Zoning laws are under the state government and building codes are under principally the local governments. I am yet to see the zoning laws of lagos state. I know during the western regional administration, various sections of lagos was divided into zones, industrial zones (5 in number), agricultural zones, residential zones and commercial zones, since then nothing had been heard about zoning.

As per building codes, these are there only on paper. You find huge churches in the middle of residential areas with no parking spaces. You find hotels on every residential street. There are bear parlours, night clubs and fun spots right in the middle of residential areas. The worst is buildings in the middle of drainage systems.

This raid of strip club is not about building code, it's about religion, because I am sure their are many other building in the area not in compliance with the building code, churches, schools, joints. I am sure it is violating the religious sentiments of a very important person or some people in the area.

Right to break law? The police cant just shut down a business. If legally registered and zoned the police have no case.
Zoning laws, in Nigeria? Are you joking or you are serious?
The only place I know where semblance of Zoning laws apply is old ikoyi. There you will not find churches or mosques in every street or shops or markets in every compound. offices have encroached though.

You are telling me that the police has the rights to burst into your bedroom without a court order?

If the club is not legally registered, there are means of enforcing the law without bursting and arresting innocent people. There are processes and agencies that ensure registration and operating conditions are met.
Most churches in street corners are not registered, will you support it if police burst into an unregistered church and arrest everybody during Sunday worship?

The strip club was closed because the residents of the area did not want it anymore.

Sounds like a good reason to me.
How does closing down a club relate to arresting people inside? Do you close a place by badging into the place and arresting people inside?
What happens to a valid court order?

Nigeria is lawless because the people support and promote lawlessness. Pray that one day the police does not close your business or even your home.

we can continue to pretend all is well till reality deals us a grave blow..
lemme ask you one question































What is the NIGERIAN DREAM?
one love bro!
Oil plays a central role in our lives because we rely on a rent economy, and because we are more interested in consumerism rather than production. Although this habit was acquired during the our first interactive relationship with European merchants whereby, they take natural resources (and later slaves ) for consumer products like alcohol, cloths, mirrors, etc. We are yet to wean ourselves from that consumerism.

The minute we look in instead of out and start producing what we need and rely less on imports, oil will start playing a less central role in our lives. Norway export just a bit less than Nigeria at about 1.5million barrels per day, but oil play relatively less significant role in their economy. Believe me, no amount of crude export can get us out of our economic doldrums.

The problem we have is human rather than resources. After all the human resource is the most important of all resources. Hausa, Yoruba, igbo are all part of the Nigeria problem as their elites jostle for power, position and advantages. The Hausa has a grip on political power with Yoruba giving some challenge. Igbos who have lost out are playing the spoiler and prefer to split the baby in half (in fact so many parts) instead of letting hausas (and sometimes Yorubas) always having full custody of the baby.

I am tired of always blaming the British for our present predicament. Agreed, the British made a lot of damage and set lots of booby traps, but we were not the only country that passed through similar experiences at the hands of the British. The US, India, Ghana, Palestine (now Israel ), and in fact over one third of the countries in world passed through the same British experiences. So our own situation is not unique. What made us unique is that we love to whine and wail (and pray) rather than make the effort and time to actually confront the problems.

There is no Nigeria dream or even American dream, what we have is human dream. Every human being strive to survive and thrive and make a better life for himself and his family. That's why humans had been migrating since recorded history - to find a better place to thrive.

Here are some key points of the willings commission set up before independence to look into grievances of minorities;
EXCERPTS FROM A THE REPORT OF THE COMMISSION APPOINTED TO “ENQUIRE INTO THE FEARS OF MINORITIES AND THE MEANS OF ALLAYING THEM”, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS “THE WILLINK COMMISSION REPORT OF JULY 1958”


“It was among the Ibos, formerly despised by the people of Calabar as source of slaves and as a backward people of the interior, now feared and disliked as energetic and educated, that the first political party formed.”

“In the whole of this non-Ibo area there is present in varying degree some fear of being over-run, commercially and politically, by the Ibos….. if Ahoada and Port Harcourt, which are really Ibo, are considered with the solid centre of Ibo population, there are 54 seats for the Ibo area and 30 for COR (Calabar, Ogoja and Rivers) in (Eastern Regional House of Assembly).”

“The question of land was repeatedly raised, it being resented by the Efiks and Ibibios that the Ibos should acquire land at all in their territory while the methods by which it was obtained were also questioned. There is no doubt that on the Ibo Plateau there is insufficient land for the people and the Ibos ate thrusting outwards where possible they acquire land and use it either for cultivation or building…..This is a matter which will require legislation sooner or later and it will be delicate to handle, but the economic process is in itself healthy and we had little sympathy with a witness who remarked that there is much undeveloped land in district and he was anxious that it should not fall into the hand of the Ibos….We believe that Governments in Nigeria should be careful not to try to protect minorities by introducing measures that would restrict development.”

https://scannewsnigeria.com/news/willink-report-1958-the-following-are-excerpts-from-a-the-report-of-the-commission-appointed-to-enquire-into-the-fears-of-minorities-and-the-means-of-allaying-them-otherwise-known-a/

It can be seen that most of the allegations against the igbo were found to be unfounded (just as in present day Nigeria) by the commission, the feeling and perception of the minorities was still important enough to recommend the creation of a separate state for non igbos.

Only when oil becomes the next coal our brains will reboot.. the reason Nigeria still stands is because of Niger Delta's oil money.
Forget oil. You guys seem obsessed with oil. Only the political elites benefits from oil, the ordinary Fukani, Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, Tivi, etc, man does not benefit of care about oil. It was only recently (with the anmesty) programme that some ordinary Niger delta youths benefited anything from oil sales.

The north cannot separate from Nigeria even if oil if found in the north because of;
1. Access to the sea. They will not want to be landlocked.
2. Climate Change; The desert is accelerating south, the lake Chad has dried out and their agricultural livelihood is threatened.

The igbos shouting separation will be the worse adversely affected in terms of separation.
They would need to FORCE the old eastern minorities to secede with them because if not;
1. They will be landlocked
2. The igbos have very little oil and most of the oil reside with minority tribes.
3. The igbos are also suffering serious environmental issues like erosion.
4. The core Igbo landmass is very tiny.

Igbos building a country with eastern minorities will only make the new country a mini Nigeria with only one major ethnic group. The minorities will be in a continuous struggle to avoid Igbo domination. This was the situation in the East Pre and even post independence.

Maybe he is using very powerful jazz.

If he had even said Federal Government of Nigeria, it would have made a tiny bit more sense, but then the British courts have no jurisdiction whatsoever to try cases concerning Nigeria or the government of Nigeria.

So, if kanu does win his case against the Federal Republic of Nigeria, who will enforce the judgements? Metropolitan Police?

But if Biafrans like Ojukwu and Kanu talk about getting independence from Nigeria, the same Nigerian will start screaming "treason!", "python dance!", "war!"

Hypocrisy is a Nigerian
The is nothing same about the way Nigerians got independence and the way Ojukwu and Kanu sought to get "independence" (actually secession). Nigeria got independence by lobbying through the political process after years of negotiations. The independence leaders and lobbyist did not call British "Zoo" and all sorts of derogatory names. They did not insult the Queen, the prime minister or the governor general. They definitely did not run to another country while threatening the country with war. Everything was done cordially in accordance with extant local and international laws.

These cannot be said for Ojukwu that launched a war on the country leading to death of millions on both sides or Kanu that purports to use Radio, social media and street protests to achieve to achieve so called independence.

IGBO RELIGION BEFORE COLONIALIZATION
In Pre Colonial Era in Nigeria, Igbo people believed in Odinani. It`s the common name for the traditional Igbo religious practices. The main characteristic of this religion is a monotheistic attribute. They believed in one God, but he also had a lot of spirits (Alusi). Igbo`s traditional beliefs in some contextual meaning can resemble Christian cosmology. They believed in one God called Chineke. He was a creator of everything on the Earth. At the same time, the world was divided into Human and Spirit world. When people died, they traveled to the spirit world.

Each person has a guardian spirit which was called Chi. Chineke or Chukwu assigned these spirits to every person. The closest concept to Chi spirit is the guardian angel in Christianity. This spirit also follows the person into the world of spirits. Igbo people believed that they could speak with ancestors who lived in the spirit world. Alongside with Chukwu as a supreme spirit, there were other lesser spirits: - Anyanwu – it`s the sun god. Together with Amadioha, he controls the weather; - Amadioha – it`s the god of Sky. He was also a god of justice and lightening; - Ana or Anada (can also be called Ani or Ala)– it`s the Earth Goddess; - Ikenga – It`s the god of time and achievements. He had control over blacksmithing and farming; - Ekwensu – It`s the god of war that was mostly honoured amongst warriors.

False claim. No record of Jewish religion in igbo history. All records written by colonialist pre independence showed that like all other black African civilizations before colonialization and slavery, igbos were animists.

As Biafrans from all works of life are entering the feast of passover this weekend, the members of the Supreme Clergy Council of Biafra (SCCOB) visited an alter of covenant raised by late Biafra leader Ikemba Odimegwu Ojukwu. The clergymen and women from different Christain congregation met at place where the alter is situated along Enugu-Umuahia expressway for prayers and suplications. While making their request to ChiukwuOkikeAbiama , the clergymen and women reminded Him of the sufferings and subjugation of the Biafran nation in the hands of the Nigeria oppressive state. The clergymen and women also reminded God of the vow made to Him that "a restored Biafran state will not worship idol but Him alone".

Nigerians shaa, one haven't produced household electricity not to talk of industrial now you want electric powered vehicle. Have they considered the voltage required to charge a car? I can assure you that is not the same as you use in your houses ooo
Voltage is not the problem, simple transformer can achieve whatever voltage you need, it's power that is the problem. A 60Kwh capacity electric car has a range of about 300km on an expressway (approximate distance between Lagos and Benin ). At our best capacity of 6000Mw, each Nigerian family of say 6, shares (6,000,000,000/200,000,000)x6 = 180watts. That 180watts is available for an average of 10 hours (being generous). That's makes 1.8kwh. If an average Nigerian family gets only 1.8kwh/day, where will he get the 60Kwh needed to charge his car for daily needs per family car? This same family needs to charge phones and rechargeable lights, iron clothes, cook and boil water, watch TV and other entertainments, etc.

with all due respect sir, ur the one displaying ignorance here. Go and do ur research on the state of electric power supply in those countries operating electric cars.
You cannot compare the number of people who can afford and maintain an electric car to the number of people who can afford a gasoline car. Nigeria does not have a reliable and steady power supply. Even the small amount that is being made available is too costly for the common man to afford with the alledged 30k minimum wage. Do u know how much it's even going to cost u power up an electric car to run for about 6 to 7 hours?? And of cos with our issue with traffic jam, which will amount to about charging ur car twice a day. Nigeria produces about 4k to 6k magawatts of electricity which is not even enough to give us an average of 12hrs of constant power supply and now u want to add electric cars to it. Dont u know there are a lot people living in certain régions of this country who drive cars but don't have electric poles in thier environment not to talk of electrity. They should first of all address the issue with electricity before talking about electric cars. If it's not addressed, electric cars will never do well in this country.
What people supporting Ben Bruce fail to answer is " WHERE WILL THE ENERGY TO CHARGE THE ELECTRIC CARS COME FROM? Electric cars can't charge themselves. The energy to charge the cars has to come from other sources of energy - Hydo, fossil or alternative energy sources.

Nigeria with an estimated 10 - 12 million cars on Nigerian roads and with Nigeria generating a measly 4000 - 6000Mw, which is not enough to power lagos alone. Where will the electricity to charge the cars come from?

PoliticsRe: Buhari Signs New Minimum Wage Bill by wirinet(m): 8:15am On Apr 19, 2019
frowland:
How did you come about the Naira going to 450? Be objective and not sentimental.
Basic economics of demand and supply. At 18,000 minimum wage, Nigeria imports about $40 billion worth of goods. If salaries is increased by 50%, demand for imported items is expected to increase (as there are no local industries to bridge the expected increase in demand), thereby leading to increase in demand for dollars to facilitate the imports. There will be upward pressure on the naira.



The external reserve is 45B USD strong so there is only one way the naira will go and its downwards.
External reserve is savings for a rainy day or used in emergencies when crude prices crash. It is not used for day to day transactions. A $45 billion can only sustain exports for a couple of months, depending on how bad the oil price crash is. The best way to defend the naira is either to restrict imports or increase local production.
Regarding pump price, well I don't have much information on that but Nigeria is one of the countries that sell fuel far cheaper than even US, Saudi, IRaq, Oman, Qatar etc etc and with much much population that those arab countries. So do the maths. The country is strained.
Fuel is expensive in most western nations due to high taxes. They put high taxes on fuel to encourage people use public transportation. Furthermore, high fuel prices will have devastating effects on the socio economic life of Nigerians.

There is no subsidy on diesel and I have been using it for 3 years now @220/ltr. Both at home and office and no scarcity.
Petrol cannot be compared to diesel. The demand for petrol is way more than that of diesel and besides, lots of our diesel is produced locally (though illegally) in the Niger delta.

Fix power sector and half of the population won't care if pump price is 1k/ltr.
Better said than done. We have been trying to fix the power sector for the last 50 years with little progress.

30k is minimum bro. Lets stop painting the picture that every worker earn 30k. It's the minimum pay for level 1 step 1. Check the increment in percentage and its impressive. 50% increase in salary is actually acceptable. People who earn 20k will now earn 30k, so is 50k will now earn 75k, those on 100k will earn 150k and so on and so fort. Its acceptable as far as am concerned.
Still the same problem of curing the symptoms and feeding the disease.

The over 50% increase in salary will be wiped out in less than a year due to almighty inflation. More money in people's pockets without a corresponding increase in productivity means more money chasing the same goods and services. We will bridge that increase in demand by increasing importation. Meaning more nairn chasing dollars, leading to fall in naira value, leading to increase in prices. Local products and services too will not be left behind and they will increase prices also.

So by this time next year;
Petrol will be close to N180/litre
Naira will be N450 in the blackmarket
Okada will be N100 minimum per drop.
Sliced bread will be N350 minimum
Electric rates will be N35/kwh
Pepsi will be N150 for small PET bottle.
House rent will increase by 30%
Etc.

Sorry, I forgot to add that apart from maybe LAGOS State, no other state in the federation will pay 30,000, except the FG is ready to perpetually bail out the states.

What's your problem really?

Did your parents smoke weed in the open like you do nowadays? Were homosexual people as bold in those days like they are now?

A man's private romantic video was leaked by his antagonists and you are here crying more than the bereaved.

Did the duo leak the video?

There was nothing reprehensible about the video except through the lens of your limited sight.

You are now a proud African when it suits your narrative, the next event with still make you curse the day you were born an African.

Zlantanfan has scampered away and you seek to take his place?
Why are your people so skilled on insults? I hear you guys have no respect for anything or anyone. You insults parents, uncles and even aged people. It is not possible for you to have a decent discussion without insults. Any you say you are a mother, I wonder what you are teaching your children.

A decent man or woman don't do private romantic video and leave it on his phone. Been married for over 15 years, love my wife to death, have children in the house, would never make a "romantic" video and leave same on my phone. It is IRRESPONSIBLE. The phone could get stolen. No matter how many times I change my password, my children always open my phone.

If you are in the habit of making "romantic" videos with your husband and storing same on your phone, someday, we will also watch you on xvideos.

The extent to which you guys are ready to go to support Kanu, I hope he does not do a Jim Jones on you guys.

Is it Kanu's fault that you have a hippopotamus as a spouse? I don't see any degrading there except green envy oozing from every hole in your body..

When Kanu came out to take pride over the video, you died a little that day cos you and fellow haters had thought he'd be so ashamed of it, but he threw more poo in your faces with the post you quoted.

Still, nothing in the post suggests he posted the video himself or his elegant wife did.
I now understand why people blow themselves up on the orders of Al-Baghdadi or why Trump said even if he shoot someone on 5th street in broad daylight light, he will not lose any followers.

Girls, what kanu did is morally reprehensible especially by African standards. People get arrested on the streets for "indecent dressing". It is a taboo in many cultures including igbo culture for any other man to see your wife's unclothedness or even semi - unclothedness. You don't display sex in public. Your parents never did it. In fact our parents never had sex or even kissed in front of children.

I am yet to see an IPOB supporter duplicate what kanu did. Non had shown their wives in just pant and bra staring at the camera. Non had put her face into the crouch area of their husband to show love and affection.

So u don't know that APC has been using all this news on birth control to test the microphone at impending birth control laws..?

Look, china's strength is its population, hence Canada wants to fill it's population.....

Mum naida go go listen to US na
China's strength is not its population, it's in its ability manage and control it's population. If China had not started managing it's population from 1970s, it would never have developed.

It's never an APC vs PDP issue. You guys just can't see beyond APC vs PDP. The only government that saw population as a problem and made a fibble attempt at addressing it was Babangida with his 1 woman 4 child policy. There were no PDP and APC then.

Canada is undepopulated given its size and rescources. Canada the second largest country in the world in terms of land mass has a population of least than 40 million. That's about the population of the South East. Canada definitely needs to increase its population.
