How can a child who scores 139 be in the same classroom, take the same lecture, and write the same exam as a child who scores 2? The teachers would have to go to the level of the child who got admission with 2 while teaching, thereby dulling the sharp brain of the child who scored 139. Admission should be by merit. Let us stop scarifying good brains from quota

When will they arrest and parade Deborah's killers who publicly boast about it

Fulani herdsmen in the bush do not understand peace.

Mushmush:
He is wiser than your demigod Peter Obi. So Mr Pandora Peter Gregory Obi didn't build any school during his 8 years tenure as the governor of Anambra state? What a shame. Reno said it on live TV that he will give anyone $10k who can show him one school Mr Pandora Peter Gregory Obi built. Not renovation! It's a shame that some senseless Nigerians actually thought that Mr Pandora can be the President of this country. Come 2027, he will still collect koboko from the Jagaban of Africa. Obi supporters, receive sense in the name of Jesus

Why build a new school when the old ones need serious renovation? You and Reno are so pained by Peter Obi achievement in Nigeria politics

Now EFCC would have to prove if it was a real naira note in the videos.

SadiqBabaSani:
The attackers are not true Muslims

What of the ones that killed Deborah in Sokoto for acclaimed blasphemy, are they true Muslims?

seunmsg:
If you see nothing wrong in Peter Obi attempting to bribe Northerners with borehole and food, why are you crying over Federal Government’s decision to subsidize hajj payment for Muslims? What’s wrong with two can play the game?

While Peter Obi is building boreholes and donating food to the north through his personal pocket, the Federal government is subsidizing hajj through our national purse. If you still can't see the difference then you are a f**l

Even considering awarding such a multi-billion contract to a low-grade company with no track record is enough reason to remove you.

Jakumo:
I have no military affiliation but your sentiments are noted nonetheless. For the record, I agree that civilian massacres are war crimes and gross human rights violations BUT when any army loses men during attacks launched against them in a specific geographical area, the Geneva Convention goes in the dustbin and the gloves come off.

That is why some people refer to Nigeria as a Zoo. Nigeria is a lawless country.

I can bet my left kidney that the part where they stated that the victims refused to stop when they were flagged to stop Is a big lie. Even at that, it's still not enough reason to open fire on them. This is so unprofessional. I'm sure they only admit it because the man is a lawyer, if not they would have tagged him as an armed robber

Prisons in Nigeria are made for the poor and small criminals. The rich and powerful criminals never go to prison.

The women are bisexual

I just mentioned where I learnt from

Which city in Nigeria are you. Maybe we can do a job

WiszyFraud:
Did you know??




When you are dead, you don’t know you are dead. It’s pain only for others.

It’s the same thing when you are stupid.

Really You sound like you are speaking from experience.

This is what you get when you mixed work with pleasure. Stop sleeping with your salesgirls and secretaries.

Error401:
Nigerians gradually conquering the world

Nigerians are hard working and talented people. The problem is that we allow the worst of us to rule over the best of us because of religion and tribalism.

Throwback:
Those who hate good news or progress would now be happy with this news.

They only delight over the negative. Any positive news must be doubted.

What a miserable way to live.

Tell us the bitter true. Stop gaslighting us.

Parachoko:
Every Vote in Nigeria is Equal

None is greater than the other.

And yet Wike an appointee of Tinubu is carrying out the duties of an elected Governor in Abuja. Abuja residents has no right like Lagos residents to elect their Governor.

In the United States, civil forfeiture (also called civil asset forfeiture or civil judicial forfeiture)is a process in which law enforcement officers take assets from people who are suspected of involvement with crime or illegal activity without necessarily charging the owners with wrongdoing. While civil procedure, as opposed to criminal procedure, generally involves a dispute between two private citizens, civil forfeiture involves a dispute between law enforcement and property such as a pile of cash or a house or a boat, such that the thing is suspected of being involved in a crime. To get back the seized property, owners must prove it was not involved in criminal activity. Sometimes it can mean a threat to seize property as well as the act of seizure itself.

Civil forfeiture is not considered to be an example of a criminal justice financial obligation.

The U.S. Marshals and GSA sold 2,000 dresses and accessories near Baltimore in 2015. The dresses were seized in connection with the criminal conviction of a woman who supported her wedding boutique by embezzling over $5 million from her employer.

Proponents see civil forfeiture as a powerful tool to thwart criminal organizations involved in the illegal drug trade, with $12 billion annual profits.

Since it allows authorities to seize cash and other assets from suspected narcotics traffickers. They also argue that it is an efficient method since it allows law enforcement agencies to use these seized proceeds to further battle illegal activity, that is, directly converting value obtained for law enforcement purposes by harming suspected criminals economically while helping law enforcement financially.

Critics argue that innocent owners can become entangled in the process to the extent that their 4th Amendment and 5th Amendment rights are violated, in situations where they are presumed guilty instead of being presumed innocent. It has been ruled unconstitutional by a judge in South Carolina. Further, critics argue that the incentives lead to corruption and law enforcement misbehavior. There is consensus that abuses have happened but disagreement about their extent as well as whether the overall benefits to society are worth the cost of the instances of abuse.[citation needed]

Civil forfeitures are subject to the "excessive fines" clause of the U.S. Constitution's 8th amendment, both at a federal level and, as determined by the 2019 Supreme Court case, Timbs v. Indiana, at the state and local level. A 2020 study found that the median cash forfeiture in 21 states which track such data was $1,300.

— According to Gerald E. Mcdowell Chief, Asset Forfeiture & Money Laundering Section, Dept. of Justice, 1996, writing in The New York Times:

“Prosecutors choose civil forfeiture not because of the standard of proof, but because it is often the only way to confiscate the instrumentalities of crime. The alternative, criminal forfeiture, requires a criminal trial and a conviction. Without civil forfeiture, we could not confiscate the assets of drug cartels whose leaders remain beyond the reach of United States extradition laws and who cannot be brought to trial. Moreover, criminal forfeiture reaches only a defendant's own property. Without civil forfeiture, an airplane used to smuggle drugs could not be seized, even if the pilot was arrested, because the pilot invariably is not the owner of the plane. Nor could law enforcement agencies confiscate cash carried by a drug courier who doesn't own it, or a building turned into a "crack house" by tenants with the knowing approval of the landlord.”

From the look of things, Peter Mbah is a goner. Labour Party is taking Enugu state

The politicians are not our problem in this country. Our problem are Nigerians blinded by tribe, region and religion keep voting incompetent , corrupt and clueless persons into power.

saphiere:
Dear NL mods, did you know that a lot of Nigerians do not know all the presidential candidates for this coming election? This thread is not just for vote casting but to let Nigerians know all the candidates running for the number one office of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and their parties.
Please do the needful.

Dominique lalasticla seun justwise nlfpmod Odewaleadesoye

Its not our duty to know all the presidential candidates. Its the presidential candidates duty to make themselves known to us. You cannot relax in your house and expect Nigerians to know you. Most of them never campaigned outside there local government. We do not need to know them.

kaylardz:
OBI is just wasting time and resources by visiting the west at this critical time. He suppose to be in South south by now visiting the villages one after the other. That is the only place he has the hope of winning.

His wife is from South south... And she is doing wonderfully well on that aspect.

ThatFairGuy1:
Is his name and location hard to mention?

Or it's another #Lekkilies

So Tinubu will send his thugs to go finish him kpatakpata

Nigerian rapper and activist, Folarin Falana, AKA Falz, has urged the youths to vote in Saturday’s presidential election.

Falz in a video on his Instagram page on Sunday, called on Nigerians not to make any excuse for not voting. According to him, it is time for the youths to decide their future.

He said, “Oya election don come oooo this is my PVC, I’m sure you have yours and you are ready to vote. I don’t want to hear any of that rubbish that my vote will not count, so what’s the point of voting?

“Oh God, please nobody should annoy me; this is 2023, with everything we’re going through, if there are still some people.

Falz, who urged Nigerians to vote against bad leadership, noted that the Labour Party movement has grown to become a formidable third force within a short time.

“Somehow, we have been able to gather momentum, unbelievable momentum for this formidable 3rd force. Forget about all those pessimists, all those cynics that are coming to you, all those irresponsible people that apparently love to suffer and want to keep this status quo, forget about those people and just focus on the goal,” he said.

Falz added that the goal in 2023 is that the people have decided that they will choose who rules them.

The main contenders of Saturday’s Presidential election are the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Labour Party, LP and the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP.

Falz, is a Nigerian rapper, songwriter and actor, who began his career while in secondary school after forming a group called The School Boys with his friend before his professional career as a music artist began in 2009. Falz became more well-known after releasing the song “Marry Me” featuring vocals from Poe and Yemi Alade.

The new way of standing for national Anthem

Actuarydeji:
I can only attribute the increment to the high prices of goods in the markets. The value of 5000 naira some years back is not the same as at today.

What brings about the high prices of goods is Bad government. Bad government is the cause of the increment. Price of commodities are going high everyday . Only a wicked sadist will vote APC again.
