The prospect of a race to the bottom oil price is quite high
given the chance of an end to the Ukrainian war and the easing
of environmental regulations for US oil companies.

“After listening to them, I told them I would tell them everything starting from when I was dating. By the time I reached marriage and the birth of my son and first daughter, two of the ladies were crying.

“I was providing accounts of everything that happened, and I told them that I have receipts. I said nobody divorced me; I took my suitcase and left the marriage.

Misleading post from a skilled liar.

His show sponsors don't care if he was married, cohabiting or divorced.
It was all about the domestic violence aspect.

He has receipts for everything but not the abuse he meted out.
He has always avoided addressing the domestic violence issue directly,
preferring to focus on diversionary tactics and unrelated stories instead.

As to him remarrying again after divorce, that is not an achievement and neither does
it prove anything about his domestic character.

He is a "rich man" by Nigerian standard and he is famous to boot, if he wanted 10 wives at once, he
could have gotten them without fuss.

Birmingham university?
This look like what a religious private uni will do.
It can't possibly be the popular Birmingham uni.

press9jatv:
not on Elon musk app “X”.

You are not informed.
People get banned everyday on X.

Even prominent accounts are not left out.

It is people like you that understand politics that will be talking about free speech.
Speak against the wrong person and you get banned.

press9jatv:
trump will be swear in to government in 13 days time so mark zukerberg have to aligned to Trump free speech policies. Still with this new development, Elon musk free speech app is much better and best in the world.

There is nothing like free speech.
You can get banned on any platform and nothing will happen.

Mrfeel:
He has no private beef, the ooni of ife just wants to humiliate his ex wife for leaving him, simple as that

It has nothing to do with Ooni.
She is not the first wife to leave!

Makinde has been issuing press releases constantly since the incidents.
He makes it seem as if he was dealing with some at large terrorists who are very dangerous to the society.
It is even Oyo attorney general that is the prosecutor, a man that never shows up in court unless the
governor is personally involved or it is a constitutional issue.

bitsAndpieces:
Private beef Kids died and you here talking about private beef? Do u have children??

If we are careless about death of kids, then we might as well just end this world.

People should be brought to justice, so it doesn’t happen again.

What do you know about the law
That a tragedy happens doesn't mean you must punish someone.
The first step is investigation and gathering evidence and then being charged to court.
But the tactless Makinde is teleguiding the police and the court on what to do.

It is illegal to hold a suspect for more than 48 hours without charge, the police
violated rule based on Makinde's instruction. This rule applies even if the suspects
have went to each child's house to shoot them.

Just because you are bereaved doesn't give you the right to revenge on illegal basis.
That is nothing but jungle justice.

The underhanded tactics of holding suspects to ransom when the government knows it will
eventually lose is alien to any civil justice system.

I know many of you see things as black and white and you even feel justified but
you can't have a functioning society without accounting for grey areas.

I suspect Makinde has a private beef with Hamzat.
The court should be allowed to do its job without overbearing political influence.

free2ryhme:
like play dem go spend years for prison

No, they won't.
This isn't a murder case.
It is a bailable offense.
Makinde will soon run out of tricks and the court will have no choice but to grant them bail,
though it could be with very stringent conditions.

This ruling against the state assembly is late.
Defections and suspension by councilor is the new tactics Okpebolo is using.

Adjourned to receive instructions on how to proceed.
What is the point of delaying bail application for a bailable offence?

Paramount01:
Guy you try oo,how did you know he said that,you really dig him deep.

I didn't really dig deep.
He was all over a previous thread praising Abioye and attacking Oyedepo.
He claimed everybody felt the absence of Abioye and the church is no longer as it was.
He made it seem like he was a long-time insider, not just ordinary member, in the church.

Imagine my surprise when he started attacking the church this time, having
forgotten that he is supposedly a devout member.

Soludo playing dangerous game especially in a region where they neither forget nor forgive.

MadamVanessa:

Where does the above statement shows or literally translate to me being a member of the church?

Why attend a programe of a church that you claim is tribalistic?
How does that make sense to you?

I understand it is very hard keeping up with multiple lies and identities.
You forgot your previous fake membership/attendance when you needed to launch
a new unrelated attack.

Perhaps, you need to switch account?

Hurray!
The jerry curl fat kid has spoken.
He must be obeyed.

MadamVanessa:



Where exactly did I say that I am a member of this tribalistic church? Of all churches in the world you think I will chose a tribalistic church like living Faith?


I was only showing concerns when Oyedepo pursued His second Abioye out of the church just to make a way for his son's to inherit it.

You claimed to attend programmes of the church and even stated that you missed the presence of Abioye
in the Church.

MadamVanessa:



This tribalistic church. Any headquarter of this church in any state in Nigeria is been headed by a Yoruba man. Living faith church is a core tribalistic church.

So you attend a tribalistic church or you were lying when you claimed to be a member?

VillageOracle00:
Russian acts like a planet themselves, I love it, they do things differently

It will have make sense if it was based on a Russian calender, unfortunately, the Christmas date is still based on a European(Roman calendar).

trium:
Time is relative but Africans are eager to wish Russians a merry Christmas and insult Ethiopians, another Orthodox sect for being 'backward'. The Chinese New Year is on January 25 this calendar year. Muslims will do their own in 1400s, bigots will say they are ancient while Hindu will do theirs in 2080s but will never say that. They have sown the seed of division, ignorance and hate into you all using religion, tribe and every other factor to mess your brains. You all cling to the foreign religions because you don't know your own culture and traditions that is why you are all extreme and hateful to those who have a different view from you. You are ready to defend anything foreign you bought but can never take that time to learn about yourself, your forefathers and their ways. You love to be slaves to other things that do not belong to you. You then start to fight each other through religion and tribe because you have an identity crisis you don't want to admit!

You can see who has the problem of self-esteem. God cure you who have this mentality of self-hate

You are the one suffering from deep inferiority complex.

Russia, A Europe/Asia country is celebrating Christmas using a Calender invented by a European, Julius Caeser and
you didn't waste time in attacking Africans.

The idea of Christmas is entirely a European invention.
If Africans that you hate choose to adopt the religion founder's/spreader's Christmas date,
that shouldn't be an headache for you as it makes perfect sense.

As to the people congratulating Russia, nobody will care if it was a tiny non-significant country.

BTW, muslims don't celebrate Christmas.

lereinter:
Yes they should face trial

There's no witch hunt 35 children can't die out of stupidity, negligence, and deceit of some useless individuals looking for cheap popularity


someone that can't feed 500 people, announcing thsr she wants to feed 5000 children

If she really have the means to feed 5000 children she will not book such venue

So, if the announcement was to feed 100 instead of 5000 people and some people died, they shouldn't face trial?

KonTagiousBull:
Was he wrong?

You misunderstand my point.
This isn't about right or wrong but proper tact and following through with one's conviction.
Odili lack the stamina to engage Wike in public fight, yet he did.

That is not even the issue, what I find irritating is that he he is claiming victimhood/elderly immunity
after getting reactions to its action.

What did he expect, a hug?

Politics won't allow for withdrawal.
If he withdraws, he will lose his hardman reputation.
Nigerians generally prefer hardmen to those who compromise.

Basic123:
Yes he is anti-Igbo with pride!


Why is he the king if he can't protect his land against Scums?

Apparently not with pride!
https://www.channelstv.com/2015/04/06/oba-of-lagos-clarifies-allegations-of-threat-to-igbos/

Agbegbaorogboye:
But Odili never mentioned Wike's name while Wike has been calling his name like a baby's first word

Odili was cowardly confrontational.
Everybody knows who the "one man wanted to make Rivers their private estate" and also fighting Fubara means,
unless they are pretending or uninformed.

Even in subsequent media counter-punches, neither Odili, nor his aides denied the intended target of his attack.

It seems Odili's sense has been restored.
It was very foolish of him to engage in public verbal fight against Wike, when he has numerous aides that can do it.
Besides, everybody knows Wike is uncouth.

When Akpabio said only a mad man will fight Wike, some think it is a praise, but
it can also be interpreted in the negative sense.

It is not scarce. It is just expensive.
Blame weather and bandits.

Max24:
Take advantage of your employees in developed countries and see how you will be sued and bankrupted.

What the hell is this supposed to mean?
Can you cite any law in any country where "taking advantage" is a crime or even an infarction?
Can you even define such vague term?

Very few issues get employers in trouble in "developed countries".
Failure to pay minimum wage, witholding salary, breaching contracts and non-adherence to
safety standards.
You see none of it involves being extra nice or in good book of employees.
And this mostly applies to official position, those in the service/entertainment industry have it worse.
They have the lowest and the highest paid "workers" depending on how essential their service is
to a business.

Nigeria must change in all ramifications starting from us as individuals.

This makes no sense.
There is no country in the world where employer altruistically pay workers more than they should.
It is either a legal requirement(minimum wage), attempt to prevent workers from leaving or ploy to starve poorer competitions of top talents.
Again, you misunderstand the wages and labor market.

Gone ate the days when you pay your employees unfair wages while you maintain girlfriends with children all over the world. People are wiser now.

There is nothing like unfair wages.
There are either legal or illegal wages.
As long as he pays a legal wage and he is not owing them, he owes the employees nothing more.

There are two ways to get increased renumeration, either through government mandate(minimum wage)
or unionism. Blackmail doesn't work regardless of the number of years spent with an employer.

If you know anything about "developed countries", this won't be new information to you as entitlement
is culturally frowned upon.

Max24:
Because of the other guy that called him out. He better pay his boys living wages. Much respect to Ayankunle who brought such issues to limelight otherwise the band leaders would have continued using the boys heads. Though he sacrificed himself for others break-through.

He is not owed anything outside is legal wage.
Your employer is not your parent!

Biodun556:
When he sold the refinery, he never made arrangements for the workers that would be laid off, I think that is the reason for NLC involvement. Also, he took the decision at the tail end of his administration. He allowed Nigerians to suffer for complete 8 years of fuel scarcity.

There were seasonal/occasional scarcity as obtained prior and after his admin.
Mind you, there was widespread scarcity less than 3 months ago.

Softmirror:
Head or tail Tinubu will win the next election. He always succeeds against all odds.

No, like every other human, he has failed multiple times in the past.
At some point, everybody's luck runs out.

kedeojo:
South south will support the re election of president Tinubu. For sure, only south east will not vote for him, even if he paint every house there but their votes are inconsequential cos APC won three straight elections without them.

Explain why the "south" will support Tinubu's reelection.
