You mean the British backed and funded northerners?


Nigeria is heading into the sewers and is the laughing stock of the world under northern leadership. Your stupid insults are useless in the face of reality.

Hopefully Buhari destroys Nigeria completely so fools like you can finally die off

Typically abusive, raw, uncouth and foulmouthedly base! Living is about having a backer!! Why don’t you learn from the North how to get backers and get one for yourselves rather than bellyache about the North and it’s backer. You represent folks who derisively and in empty pride refer to Northerners as “Molla”, “Gambari” et al but are yet to realise the Administrative acumen the North parades. The North is wise enough to know that power sets policy and has all else including commerce!!!

Too much hate speech ongoing...

I don't know how or why the admins of this board don't get worried about what their platform is being used for.

I don't know the commerce of these things but if it's about keeping the traffic, is it more important than the danger that the type of hate speeches that's allowed to go on here can pose to everyone and the society?


I'll never want to own /administer a medium that's used to spread hate from both sides in probably the same way it might have been allowed to fester in Rwanda, early to the mid 90s.

Nairaland has published a disclaimer which puts commentators on notice they will be held accountable for their posts. That should be sufficient in the circumstances. In any event, this Forum gives the whole wide world a view of the innards of the commentators. Most posters don’t even know that you can be profiled by your comments on the internet - it’s a case of your fingers will find you out! Only the discerning know this.

To avert the impending judgment of the devil and those who choose to be his allies. The impending has negative eternal consequences. Do all you find in The Bible to avoid it.

Just To Remind Us, It Is Almost 4 Years Of President Buhari's Tenure, And We Are Yet To Be Islamized...

Not for want of efforts in that direction though.

May I disagree with you Sir!

1. What he is about is a political campaign and not a state function. At political campaigns such statements are not out of place as they are simply meant to garner votes from his kith and kin of the SW geopolitical zone. His choice of forum - The Palace Of The Alaafin Of Oyo - could not have been more ideal! The delivery was as incisive as the stroke of a fang! The other day when Donald Trump made “America for Americans” his campaign slogan he knew what he was talking about. He was by no means and all that stands to reason taken to be angling for ethnic or immigrant cleansing! The slogan got the votes!!

2. It is not hate speech either! Hate speech is defined as speech that attacks a person or group on the basis of attributes such as race, religion, ethnic origin, national origin, sex, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity. His speech was not an attack against any person or group on the basis of race, religion, ethnic origin, national origin, sex, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity but an appeal to the race to which he belongs to do what he thinks is in their best interest. You may disagree with his views but cannot begrudge his choice of thought. He has not said citizen rights are to be made available on the basis of race, religion, ethnic origin, national origin, sex, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

3. Strategy demands for you to meet your adversary stake-for-stake! The other day when Atiku was in the SE geopolitical zone to a well arranged and perfectly rendered “you are the SE geopolitical zone hope for a better future” hug of a lifetime by Pa Nwabueze no one screamed blue murder! For me, it was a plus for the Atiku Team as that picture speaks louder than a million voices amplified! It is sure to get the SE geopolitical zone votes for him!!! Osinbajo cannot be denied his turn at appealing to the primordial sentiments of his ethnic SW geopolitical zone. That would be unfair!

4. In any event, I see the Oyo event as an APC kite flown to take the eyes of the PDP off the real deal. PDP, the SE geopolitical zone and Atikulators would appear to have taken the bait as the Oyo event now has their attention as expected. They are red herring quarry!

5. All geopolitical zones must constantly keep in view that all politics is local which is why in politics there are no permanent relationships as local interests are paramount

5. Let the games continue!

PROF YEMI OSIBANJO SHOULD RESIGN - Pact convener
https://mrrightsng..com/2018/12/prof-yemi-osinbajo-should-resign.html?m=1

Full statement

Prof Yemi Osibanjo has dropped the final card, the ethnic card is one which only desperate politicians use, I remember meeting with him in November last year where we deliberated on very important national issues but I noticed we were all Christians.

It's quite unfortunate that the ruling party does not have projects and results to use to campaign but rather would resort to using ethnicity in our already dangerously divided nation.

A man of Osibanjo's credentials should never been seen peddling such garbage, the nation today is in desperate need of a true visionary leader not some ethnic jingoistic individuals, presidency 2023 should never even be in the bargain for now, but it's obvious they don't care, it's to them about power and who sways it.

I am disappointed in the person of Yemi Osibanjo, a supposed pastor who suddenly has become a tribalistic politician who sees nothing wrong with his decapitated administration that is being controlled by two individuals which him and the president cannot control.

He is a man that should stand up for the new generation, lead by example but unfortunately he got consumed by the flames of power and the luxuries of office, he goes from market to market in attempt to deceive gullible market women and use the pictures ad videos for political optics, yet the business of governance is unattended to.

The trader Moni is one that would come back to haunt Oluyemi Oluleke Osibanjo for the remainder of his life, you created poverty and use the same poverty as a weapon of war against the innocent people, you deceive them with 10,000 that cannot buy you recharge card for a week, what in the world could explain wickedness more than that singular act? Why not create an enabling environment for the children of these poor women to get productive jobs and look after their parent?

The man who was a shining star of this administration has just thrown it all away, it's unfortunate that he still speaks on pulpit in the name of Christ.

Vice President Yemi Osibanjo should apologize to Nigerians and take the path of honour, it's obvious he no longer have the intention to serve the country but the Yoruba tribe, which contradicts his oath of office.

At this moment we need men who would unite the country not those who want to devide it. Someone like Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim.

That’s what you think! The APC folks just flew a kite and the PDP folks are gonna focus their gaze on it until they completely lose sight of the real bird. #redherringquarry

Chepos1:

Caught pants down! Reminds one of Sen. Omisore who had two cobs of roasted maize in both hands in the bid to appear as one who identifies with the common man!

JasonScoolari:
His spirit will surely visit him. Kyari should be patient.

Which spirit? Our works follow us about - even in death! What you fail to contain will, sooner than later, contain you! #lessonslearnt

And Okorocha is a statue maker!

Those in government who steal money meant for security will end up being consumed by the insecurity they failed to contain.

Exactly the reason why government land across the country should not be appropriated as grazing reserves for the Fulani who, once infused will be better placed to carry out the threat. States donating land for Fulani grazing reserves should soon have themselves to blame!! The Sokoto Caliphate Conquest under the cover of religion is instructive!!!

Medicine after death! After Uzoma killed the bank!!

The VP has made a laughable caricature of himself in that office.

firstolalekan:
Shut up silly!

Rather than engage with me constructively you got abusive! Not surprising though as that is consistent with the demonic phenomenon that has you bound! Your profile reveals how abusive an entity you have chosen to be overtime. How else do you explain pushing a strike initiative to delivery point only to back out! Do you talk about the deprivation endured by the striking workers or the economic loss it brought to the nation’s economy!! Discerning readers know as between you and I who indeed is silly and advisedly should keep mute!

This Scion of a demonic phenomenon!

Misguided fellows! The last strike was pushed up to delivery point only for them to back down!!

dominusgai:
Actually sir, it doesn't. Unless you have not boarded a flight before, you should know that in an airport, an armed guard will make you noticeable. But a man carrying a brief case is one in a crowd. Also, unlike the car park, the number of touts inside an airport is greatly reduced. I can guarantee that if you snatch a bag inside an airport you will not get to the gate. All the cars parked in the airport are registered with the airport.

It is also almost impossible to rob a plane first of all. To do it without being traceable is outright impossible.

I see your point but still insist folks like the pant bomber don’t care if they die pushing their agenda!

BabaOwen:
Lol can you tell me how other banks move there own money?

You miss the point! The point is not how other banks also move cash but the propriety or otherwise of doing so in the manner now disclosed!! No armed guard. It endangers the life of the couriers and folks who share the same commercial flights with them. Folks will do anything to get at a billion Naira in forex even if they die trying! Chartered flights are better.

Alex Badeh, Amosun, Dasuki, Obanikoro, Falae, Fayose, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan et al are contributory factors!

Most irresponsible! How could Union Bank use such means to move depositors and customer funds! One is in the hope that CBN properly sanctions Union Bank!!

The driver, who was wounded in the attack that led to the killing of former Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh, is alive and recuperating as investigation into the incident is substantially progressing.

” ….. the driver is alive and recuperating extremely well at one of our Nigeria Air Froce Hospitals,’’ the Director of Public Relations and Information of Nigeria Air Force (NAF), Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola, confirmed.

Daramola said some of the reports erroneously stated that the driver of the late former CDS, who was also shot during the incident, was dead.

He appealed to those spreading misinformation about the unfortunate incident that led to the death of Badeh to stop.

He said spreading of erroneous reports and comments in the media on the incident could have adverse effects on the conduct of ongoing operations.

He noted that other reports alleged that adequate security was not provided for the deceased Air Chief Marshal.

The NAF stated that nothing could be further from the truth.

” Air Chief Marshal Badeh has always been provided with the full complement of personal staff and security personnel commensurate with his status as a former Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), CDS and a 4-star general in the Armed Forces of Nigeria,” he said.

NAF stated that substantial progress had already been made in the investigation and details would be communicated at the appropriate time.

” As mentioned by the CAS, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, on Dec. 19, the NAF is working closely with other relevant security agencies to determine the circumstances surrounding the death of the former CDS.

“This is with a view to ensuring that the perpetrators of the heinous act are brought to justice.

” Substantial progress has already been made in the ongoing investigation and details would be communicated at the appropriate time.

” The NAF wishes to request that the spreading of misinformation about the incident should stop forthwith as this could have adverse effects on the conduct of ongoing operations,” NAF stated.

The news agency of Nigeria confirmed Badeh died from gunshot injuries sustained when his vehicle was attacked while returning from his farm on Abuja-Keffi road on Tuesday.

A plurality of Americans named Barack Obama the best president of their lifetimes.

In a survey by the Pew Research Center, 44% named Obama the best or second-best president of their lifetimes, followed by 33% who named Bill Clinton and 32% who named Ronald Reagan.

1shortblackboy:
oga nothing speaks for itself people should be given a fair trial so they'll have a chance to defend themselves before u start calling them a thief. thats what civilized people do.

Civilisation is an ongoing process.

1shortblackboy:
I don't call anyone a thief till a court finds him guilty. its this kind of reasoning that makes people think its all right to put a tyre around peoples necks and burn them in the streets

Not in this instance where it is criminal breach of trust and the thing speaks for itself so loudly as Badeh’s case where his wife and children have kept away (and may not attend his funeral) from Nigeria for fear of prosecution!

damiloladuke:
The late former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh's wife and children may miss his burial as they remain on the watch list of the Department of State Services and the Nigeria Immigration Service.

Badeh’s widow, Mary Iya Badeh, and his two sons, Alex (jnr) and Kam have been in the United States since 2016 following his prosecution by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

According to a report by The Punch, a family friend of the Badehs hinted that it was unlikely if they would come.

He said,

“I have spoken with them and I don’t know for now if they will be coming but it is highly unlikely. Their father has just been killed under controversial circumstances and the government has not removed them from the watch list. If they return and their passports are seized and they are not allowed to return, it would be a double tragedy.

“Everybody is still in shock so we cannot say for now if they will be coming but since they are Christians, there is no rush. A lot can happen before then.”

A prosecution witness, Abubakar Madaki, had told a Federal High Court sitting in Maitama that Badeh’s wife and two of his children were being investigated for offences with which the ex-Chief of Air Staff was charged.

Madaki said the three of them, however, escaped to the United States before the investigation was concluded.

He said all attempts to get them arrested turned out to be futile.

The witness had said,

“At the initial stage, when we started the investigation, we invited Alex Badeh (Jnr.) who lives in 19 Kumasi Crescent, Abuja, one of the properties, among the properties earlier mentioned.

“He happened to be a son of the first defendant (Badeh). He claimed to be a tenant in that property and since an investigation was ongoing at the preliminary stage, we allowed him to go and come back when we had enough issues to question him about.

“He left and never came back. We later got to know that he has left the country for America.

“We were also looking for Mary Iya Badeh, the wife of the first defendant, who is one of the directors in the second defendant (Iyalikam Nigeria Limited).

“The second defendant (Iyalikam) had received so much funds from the alleged funds we are investigating.

“She too, according to the investigation has left the country for America. Kam Badeh (another of Badeh’s son) is one of the directors in one of the companies.

“We have gone round the locations that we had information that he does business, but we are unable to get him.

“Since the information was that they left through the International Airport, we wrote a letter to the Nigerian Immigration Service and the Department of Security Service to watch them. But we have not been able to get them.”

He said when his team concluded investigation in the case, it “discovered that the first defendant (Badeh) and his wife had earlier incorporated a company Iyalikam Nigeria Limited” in whose accounts they allegedly diverted the Nigerian Air Force’s funds.

Sin, indeed brings reproach! If he was content with the reward due him this won’t be happening! A good name is preferable. Shame!!

Commendable. Wished he wasn’t an unrepentant looter of the military public till stealing and stocking away in soakaway money meant to equip the soldiers in consequence of which troops were sent to cheap death in engagements with terrorists and the number of widows and the fatherless increased.

Loss?!
