They're sure not a dumdum like you, they stand for real democracy and midterm election will reflect the mind of Americans on the republican reign of terror under the delusional and selfish president.
Hypocrisy may be in my blood, but senselessly is all over yours. Critic the policies you don't agree with and reasonable convince right thinking Nigerians your principal has the best idea to move this nation forward, but side jibes and needless insults is a no go area. Use your common sense, though not common but there if u can use it.
Iamdbull: As someone with a brain that is working and a brain that is not worn out or removed , Out of the two gentlemen or one gentleman and the other man, who will you choose??
You want to convince people to vote for obi yet you still find it appropriate to insult those people to submission. Obi will come distance third in this election because of you little rascals who can't have a civil discussion without resulting to insults and banters.
Kalashnikov49: The Governor of Benue has been told by the Archbishop of Benue.
NEWS UPDATE: Executive Governor of Benue State, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, has reportedly been officially suspended from parading himself as a Catholic priest by the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Gboko, Most Rev. William Avenya.
The decision aligns with the Canon Law of the Catholic Church, which strictly forbids ordained priests from engaging in active political governance and partisan public office.
Incognito403: Of course it's evil. But that's not an excuse for another extra judicial killing. How is this different from the ways of cultists?!
Justifying one evil with another is the definition of anarchy.
Do better.
You should be more realistic, than using a textbook definition of extra judicial killing. The appellation of the guy in question says it all, and if you have seen those animals operate you would understand better. So many innocent lives has been lost today, because those guys take laws into their hands to satisfy the demonic needs of their paymasters. Once again, good riddance.
Incognito403: This isn't good riddance. Good riddance is if he was eliminited through due process.
This is anarchy.
Anarchy you say, so what do you call those extra judicial killings which the police can't produce the killers while the family wait endlessly for justice that isn't coming. I said it and I own it, good riddance.
LagosOrigin: And the money goes into dangote private pocket at the end of the day..
Where is the audio refinary that bola tinubu government promised Nigerians?
Dangote na real Guy Man
All the money goes into dangote pocket and just about 0.2 percent goes into the federal government pocket in tax.
Dangote knows tinubu is his mugu
Sincerely, I have never read a more """pid comment on a very Germaine issue as this. Why are you knuckleheads making one man a scapegoat when the problem has always seems to multiply by successive government. Tinubu may have taken some foodoo economic decisions, but so also will obi have done at least from his interviews and the results will still have been the same if not worst.
This badass gangster life and the aftermath effect will leave a lasting gash in the hearts of the love ones of the departed more than anyone, so for anyone who truly loves his own people, should just stay clear of this sort of life.
Some of the nonsense that comes from Atiku's camp is total BS. Nigeria alone has 109 senators, and 360 house of rep members which totals 469 federal law makers, while united state that will mirror our democracy after has 100 senators and 435 members of the lower chamber totally 535 voting members of Congress. While we are within little over 910k km square, united state is over 9.15 million km square with over 100 million more in population. The essence of this analysis is to state that most of our money goes into needless bureaucracy and thanks to 1999 constitution which Atiku is part of, a future of embezzlement, recklessness, poverty, insecurity and political gangsterism was created. Atiku is never a saint, so is Tinubu, making this now a today's problem is preposterous.
Lagos State House of Assembly member, Desmond Elliot, has apologised to Femi Gbajabiamila, Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu, over his actions during the last All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election in Lagos.
Elliot is seen in a video circulating on social media, on his knees pleading with Gbajabiamila for forgiveness and seeking reintegration into the ruling party in Lagos.
I’m sorry, I have no excuse, I have nothing other than to say I’m deeply sorry and I am hoping to be cultured in the future,” Elliot said.
The development followed a disagreement between Elliot and the party leadership after the APC primary for the Surulere Constituency I seat in May.
Elliot had withdrawn from the exercise, alleging intimidation and political pressure against his supporters.
He subsequently rejected the outcome of the primary and said he would challenge the process through the party’s appeal mechanism.
Elliot eventually lost the APC ticket to Barakat Odunuga-Bakare, who was believed to enjoy the backing of Gbajabiamila.
Odunuga-Bakare polled 11,385 votes to defeat Elliot, who secured 270 votes in the primary.
How do we get anything close to democracy in this absurd culture of kneeing down and beg political godfather for relevance. Nigeria is in big trouble with this nonsense political trend and the future looks dimmer on daily basis irrespective of the political party at the helms.
nairalandankrah: The official narrative pushed by authorities is that it was just a typical "garage leadership tussle" over motor park revenues involving transport union heads. But if you've been following Osun State politics closely, you know that explanation is too convenient.
Think about it: Why now? Why Emir?
1. He Knew Too Much About High-Level Political Operations. Emir was not just an ordinary grassroots figure. He was a primary operator during past election cycles. He was arrested by federal authorities, spent time in jail, faced serious charges (including terrorism, conspiracy, and murder at the Federal High Court), and was even declared wanted by the police. People like Emir hold secrets. They know who financed campaign security, who authorized intelligence ops, and where the bodies are buried—literally and politically.
2. Pre-Election " Cleansing" With political alignments shifting and another election cycle drawing closer, political enforcers become massive liabilities. If a figure who faced murder and terrorism charges gets squeezed by federal investigators or decides to flip state's witness to save his own neck, top political actors collapse like a deck of cards. In grassroots politics, when an operative becomes too dangerous to control, a "garage clash" is the easiest cover story to arrange.
3. The "Garage War" is just a staged Cover Story Notice how fast official statements blamed a "spontaneous transport union dispute" involving factional leaders? That's just a classic playbook move.
When you want to silence a political figure, you don't use a professional hit squad in black suits. You provoke a disagreement at a known hotspot like Mayfair Garage, mix in rival transport union factions, let bullets fly, and declare it "cultist/union violence." It gives everyone involved plausible deniability.
4. Defection Panic Before his death, rumors were already circulating about shifting allegiances behind the scenes. In Osun politics, if a grassroots figure who controls significant street-level machinery shows signs of switching sides or demanding too much leverage, opposition or factional rivals move fast. Eliminating him neutralizes his network before it can be deployed against them.
Is this really a simple garage fight, or did someone order a pre-election clean-up to bury secrets before the heat turns up?
All these write up on a hooligan and probably an hardened killer and criminal who most likely has involved in lots of political killings. Good riddance, and same fate is coming to his likes who profit from evil by doing the bidding of their devilish paymasters who masquerade as polithiefcian to loot our common patrimony.
DEXTROVERT: If I were a serious presidential candidate... Challenging Tinubu today... My two biggest promises would be to return subsidy to pre-2023 level... and pegging the Naira.... Atiku tried but he is scared of putting out a figure... Sowore and the SDP guys are inconsequential... Even though Tinubu is in pole position... Atiku and Obi have some base.... If I were in their shoes....I will promise taking fuel to N300..... To actualize these ...the Naira must be pegged... I will peg it at N300 to a dollar.... by fiat.... Tinubu has amassed enough reserve to defend the Naira for at least two years... today a litre of fuel is equivalent to a dollar... So I won't be paying subsidy.... but simply defending Naira with Tinubu and cardoso sweat... Leadership is not rocket science... on the day of my swearing in.... I will do opposite of what Tinubu did in Eagle square.... " Subsidy is Back " There would be jubilation across Nigeria... Many would be taking their dead and abandoned generator to repair... In the first one year .... petrol sellers would definitely be selling old stock.... so reducing fuel from N1300 to N300 would take time... I would immediately set up taskforce to crackdown on the shylock marketers... Fuel scarcity would return in full force... " leading is not rocket science"... Nigerians would groan...in queue at NNPCL stations... why black market keep prices at N1500+.. in solidarity....I will join them in fuel queues... After one year... normalcy return... in my 3rd year in office FX reserve is gone.... I no longer have institutions ready to give me dollar.... dollar scarcity returns...... Aboki becomes the king again...
Aboki can exchange their dollar for N2000 ...but official rate is N300.... If you don't see it anywhere for N300 pretend you are seeing it.... Nothing is actually real in life.. Under Tinubu $1billion received from crude sales gives Nigeria N1.3 trillion... But under my govt.... it becomes N300 billion..... So all these shout of govs getting too much money disappear.... so they go back to the rosy era of not paying salaries... govs and their family will be hungry... Imported goods will be very cheap... A bag of foreign rice would be sold for N15k.. Local industries would close shops.. But I would advice their workers to embrace farming..... that's our destiny... Let's leave industrialization for oyibo... of course tax revenue will crash as imports crush all local industries... That is no big deal...as there would be no money for politicians to l00t.... Minimum wage should go back to N20,000.... Labor would resist it.... but.. " Leadership is not rocket science" I promised 4 years term... When CBN dollar dry up... Fuel scarcity returns.... industries dried up.... Salaries stopped.... Construction works stops... protest everywhere..... I will travel abroad for two weeks... Shave my beard.... When I return.... they can call me ghost and Igwe from Congo... After my tenure.... I leave my successor to either clean up the mess I left behind or swim inside the mess. Afterall " leadership is not rocket science" Anyone who thinks leadership is rocket science is the reason why the Urhobos say.... It is better to born a thief than to born a mumu... Proverbs are not for kids...
You will be a lousy president of you did some or implement some of the economic decisions you promised, especially defending the naira with our foreign reserve. Nigeria still rely mostly on importation, so usurping your foreign reserve to defend a country with adverse balance of trade is no good economics.
Wishful thinking that won't materialize. Some of this so call opposition are not even showing us informed solution to our common problems. How can you make such lofty promise when you have no idea how to get it done.
Trump is simply a bad news. Those who taught the world will be better when he was reelected must be regretting their decision now. The DOGE cash hasn't been paid yet, and now this new promise to sway voters in favour of republican candidates and to make matter worst he's telling voters to pretend he's on the ballot paper as if he's a kind of messiah.
Glimpsetv: “No man on earth can stand me in bed for more than 5 minutes without cumming.
"I challenge any man: if you last more than 5 minutes in bed with me without cumming, you give me 5 million, and if you cum within 5 minutes, you give me 5 million."
"No man can bend me over and last 5 minutes without cumming.”
She went on to disclose her exploits and previous wins.
Basically, she is running a no-lose bet — she collects ₦5 million either way. The video shows her confidently making the claims.
However, the video has attracted various reactions, with people expressing different views and opinions.
It has generated numerous replies, with many men calling out what they describe as an obvious trap.
Kpk22: Una no quick share this update give me ooh 😂 I was honestly scared to place the order because I kept wondering, “What if what I receive isn’t what I ordered?” 😭

4. I knew it! This is another captain-save-a-hoe tale on Nairaland come to tell us that it is all the fault of the woman whom he chose to date and eventually tried to force into business, knowing full well she had no business education or background, to begin with. How do you make that make sense? 😒😒

Boy, I have read some of your comment here on NL as regards some topics and I can conveniently say you are a disturbed soul. You need help help and that must come really fast.
NewsenseNG: 🚨 “PRODUCE MY HUSBAND” — WIFE CRIES OUT 16 MONTHS AFTER GLOBACOM WORKER’S ALLEGED ABDUCTION
Mrs. Fumi Adetona has appealed for help in locating her husband, Mr. Olaoluwa Adetona, a rollout manager with Globacom Nigeria, who she says was allegedly abducted in Imo State on May 6, 2025.
According to Fumi, her husband was on a site-acquisition assignment with two expatriates when they were reportedly kidnapped. She said the two expatriates were later released, while her husband remained missing.
She alleged that the family was not promptly informed by the company and that, despite repeated visits to Lagos and Imo State, meetings with company officials, police intervention and several letters from lawyers, the family has yet to receive a satisfactory explanation about his whereabouts.
She also said the family was initially told ransom payments had been made and that her husband would be released, but he never returned.
“My children are not seeing their daddy and they keep asking me every day, ‘Where is their dad?’” she said.
The distraught wife also disclosed that her husband’s father died earlier this year, which she said was linked to the emotional burden of the situation, while his mother is reportedly seriously ill.
Rejecting suggestions that her husband may have been killed, Fumi said the family had not been presented with evidence confirming his death.
“There is no proof that he is dead. They should produce my husband,” she said.
She is now appealing to the Federal Government, security agencies, Globacom and the public to help unravel what happened to her husband and ensure that he is accounted for.
📌 May 6, 2025 — May 2026+: 16 months without answers.
Something doesn't sound right here. Expatriates were released after ransom was paid but the guy was probably killed or sold off to another group because he's a Nigerian. I pray the guy is returned back to his family but am afraid that may not happen. Another question is who actually kidnapp them, is it herdmen or unknown gunmen, because if it's the latter then the guy is gone for good.
youngEmelex: When the first report about Gentle's capture broke the internet, I wrote here on Nairaland that there was no evidence to that. Gentle d Yahoo can only be captured by local forces and people from his community not by external forces. The blood sucking vampire was a member of ESN before being appointed the commander of a unit in Biafra Liberation Army. This was an armed militia setup by Simon Ekpa to kick out the Nigerian Army from the southeast. Since they had no access to technology and advanced weapons, they decided to deploy demons and vampires for the operation. To be a commander in this group, you must be a high class deadly killer. Your rank is determined by the number of Nigerian soldiers that you have neutralized. Gentle d Yahoo is the owner of the Facebook page 'Biafra or Biafra'. During his rumored capture, the page was still active and he was uploading videos to the page. Last year, he tagged the Army's official Facebook page to a post where he shared graphic images showing the dead bodies of about 70 Nigerian soldiers killed in one attempt to penetrate his camp. This guy is the new Derico of the southeast. Those who where born during the days of Derico knew that he was never captured by the military or police. The people who banned Bakassi did the southeast dirty. They could have restructured it instead. In my next article, I will be writing on why such operations to capture Gentle is not meant for the military and police
You have a point but I don't completely agree with you. The Nigerian army will get in before the year runs out. NA has the personnel, intelligence and the necessary backing to get him apprehended. This guy has step in some very important people and the case is closed.
Vixlot: The African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, on Sunday declared that President Donald Trump of the United States, US, is backing his proposed policy on the restoration of fuel subsidy.
Atiku' s idea is laughable, and the notion he's implying of trump's approval is significant in our national economic decision is frankly ridiculous. All these BS is making Tinubu a genius in the face of decision taking while Atiku who is suppose to be a potential strong opposition to the president seems clueless. Why the man is sucking up to Trump who may be facing impeachment by next year January is beyond me. Tinubu has taken some drastic economic decisions which is affecting the livelihood of Nigerians, that alone is a factor to convince us to rethink reelecting Tinubu, but if he will be running to Trump for advice of how to run the country, then it's better for him to stay at Adamawa.
