You do not need to be prohet, an alfa, a Mallam, or any other kind of seer, to know that NOBODY wil EVER be arrested and tried for this grusome murder. This has been going on for years and it's always the same outcome. High level condemnation. Instructions to 'Fish out the culprits' and then...silence.
Nigeria is a big crime scene.

We as blacks need to understand one simple fact. NOBODY LIKES US! Whites don't like us, Arabs dont' like us, Asians don't like us....The sooner we accept this truth and build up OWN COUNTRIES the better. We should also stop wasting time debating about their wars. If they want to kill themselves anywhere in the world, na their toro be that. We've got our own problems to focus on.

With Sim demolishing the State HOA complex, he has made sure that he dictates/provides the venue for the legislators' meeting, puts good "access control" and hence secures the lawmakers loyal to him.
Indeed, the pen is mightier than the sword.

The people who have advised fubara to take this route are his greatest enemy.When people hear certain things happen in politics,its always best to go look at the details to see what actually happened. I am from Edo state and i know why obaseki had upper hand against oshiomhole in 2020.Obaseki simply aligned himself with powerful presidency cabal who saw fighting oshiomhole as a fight against Tinubu.When i hear people make reference with obaseki i simply laugh,the man had the backing of presidency that was why he triumphed against Oshiomhole.

We have had this issue of fight between Godfathers and godsons governor using the house assembly as a battle field since 1999
and the governors have never prevailed without having upper hand in the presidency.
If fubara want to turn this fight to be between APC and PDP i pity him,because he won't prevail.What is going on in kano,and the elections in Kogi and IMO should be a pointer to what is going to happen.Tinubu is the most connected and political president in the history of the country. No governor will ever prevail against him.
Do you think there are not people against Wike in the Presidency?
There are many in APC not happy that the juicy FCT ministry went to a southern PDP man.

Ladiesdoctor:
But Sir (Philip), must you be a Governor?

Oga Obaseki, you no do well at all.
The most loyal Deputy Governor that has ever been in this country is Philip Shuaibu! Despite the odds between you and Adams Oshiomole, he stood with you.

Stop parading the display between you please.

It has NOTHING to do with being loyal. Did Comrade support his deputy to take over for him? Has any deputy taking over in Lagos? Being Governor and being deputy are very different skillsets. Obaseki knows more about Philip than you and I ever will and he's decided the man is not suitable to be governor. That's enough for me

So many Nigerian ladies are single becasue they think with the outdated mentality that men must chase and spend on them. That is not how it works in the UK and the West. A men expects his women to spend on him as well, to pamper him. Sadly many Naija ladies are simply not wired to think like that

We can only hope that the next governor keeps up the momentum. Edo state can easily be a self sufficient state, if managed correctly

Politics / Re: Eko Row: Benin People ‘Owned’ Lagos, Awori Paid Royalties To Them - Erelu Abiola by bjdon: 2:55pm On Dec 03, 2023
Pakute:

All these stories are trash. Nobody has denied Aworis were from Ife but the question is, when the Benin migrant came, were the natives not there?. I ask again, How did Yorubas chase benins away from Lagos?, why is Yoruba language and culture predominate in Lagos?, why are the Yoruba the land owners in Lagos?, why are they the ones selling land in Lagos?, How many benin have a family house in Lagos?. These are my questions i want benin people to answer, otherwise, everything na empty noise.
i am looking for the historical account of how Yoruba chased Benin out of Lagos, pls, anyone with the document shotld send me a link.
We are talking about things that happened 100's of years ago. Nobody is saying that the Binis own Lagos today. Think of it like this, the British founded many nations as part of the British Empire, does that mean Britain owns those places today? Did Britain not found Nigeria? Were not already people living in this land mass called Nigeira? Yet the British took charge and made all the different kingdoms and Emmirates pay homage to them and created a New country 'Nigeria'. Today how many British people own houses in Lagos?
We should learn to understand history without emotion.

Politics / Re: Edo 2024: Shaibu Has The Right To Contest – Obaseki by bjdon: 11:28am On Dec 01, 2023
I normally do not support zoning, instead I prefer merit, but one must be honest and realistic. Only when all 3 zones have produced a governor can we then hopefully do away with all zoning and let the best candidates emerge from whatever zones.
with that in mind the central zone should be allowed to produce the next governor. The Esan nation has lots of eminent sons who can be governor next year. Its the height of selfishness and insensitivity that Philip, who comes from the same village as Oshimole, would want to be governor, when the Esan nation is yet to produce a governor.
I am a Bini man and and say we must have fairness in Edo state. Let our Esan brothers and Sisters have they turn.

Politics / Re: Sins Of A Billionaire!  how Tinubu Stopped Dangote From Defrauding Nigeria To F by bjdon: 3:17pm On Nov 30, 2023
In Nigeria even crooks can do the right thing sometimes.

Abacha was a crook, yet it's well know that during his tenure many people had to toe the line. When the Merchant Banks crashed in the 90's all the owners were banned from travelling out of the country. Some tried to lobby Abacha, but they were all rebuffed until monies owed were repaid.
Dangote has been benefiting from monopolistic practices for a long time, and if Tinubu is able to deal with him, that will be a massive plus

OP Please stop this nonsense. I am a Bini man, and now Bini is claiming ownership of Lagos. All our great Oba has said is that historically the center of Lagos which we named EKO was created by the Binis.
Lagos today 100% belongs to the Yoruba and nobody is disputing that.
Yoruba and Bini are close by history and traditions and we should not let any misunderstandings divide us

Politics / Re: Lagos State Tackles Oba Of Benin, advises Him to Learn by bjdon: 11:49am On Nov 28, 2023
Can we just make something crystal clear. The oba of Benin NEVER said Lagos belongs to the Binis. He simply said the Binis founded Lagos. This is a historical fact. Lagos today belongs to the Yoruba's 100% and nobody is disputing that.

If I can give you a comparison in Europe. The city of London in the UK was actually created by Romans and was called Londonium. Prior to that York used to be the capital of England. The Romans made London the capital. That is a historical fact, and of course it dose not mean that today London belongs to the Italy. There are many other examples like this.

Closer to home Ilorin would be another example. A city that was clearly founded by Yourba's but today is ruled by the Fulani.

Lagos is a Yoruba city today, and nobody (At least nobody from Edo) is contesting that.

Commissiona:
River state situation is not going to be business as usual, Wike is has alot of experience, that is evident in him purchasing Electoral Forms to all the local government chairmen and House of Assembly members. Wike also has a good leadership base of the local governments in the state. I don't know much about Fubura as a politician hitherto, but I don't think he has a good support base aside tribal support which cannot withstand turbulence from a formidable personality of Wike class. Fubura should stop ' testing the microphone at the start of the party ' and learn the dancing antics for now if he wants peace in the state.
All this is just talk. As long as Fubura has sufficient members of the House of assembly to prevent impechment, like Obaseki did, then he's can wage full and total political war against Wike. Obaseki and others have shown the way to do it. The idea that you can be dictating the affairs of a state from Abuja is a big joke. It will never work. Amachi served it to Odili, Wike served it to Amachi and now Fubura will serve it to Wike

Is it not obvious that he's paying Ganduje a visit in connection with the Bayelsa gubernatorial? Dayo Israel was wailing the other day about how APC is being outgunned in the polls and he ended up sounding like an orphan. It is obvious that's the background to this visit. It just shows how GEJ's chosen to ridicule himself all for pwr and relevance
Quite sad. GEJ should really be above all this, and should instead be focusing on international politics in terms of peace keeping and conflict resolution

I generally like GEJ for the way he conducted himself in 2015, but he has disrespected himself here. He is a former president of the Federal republic of Nigeria, the only people he should be going to see are fellow ex presidents, anyone else should come and see him. I hope his protocol advisors can have a word with him, to avoid such in future.

As an economist and investment banker Obaseki has implemented sound fiscal policies that have put the state in a very good position. You don't hear of things like pensioners not being paid of civil servants salaries delayed in Edo State.
However he's not performed do well on basic infrastructure, especially roads.
All in all, I would say he's tenure has been a success, considering the amount of energy and resources he needed to deploy to get re-elected against the wishes of Oshimoloe and Tinubu.

Good news, too many innocent people have died.

It appears netanyahu government is finally bowing to international pressure, though we need more than 5 days of truce.

We need a complete cessation of hostilities, Israel should not expand military offensive into southern Gaza where it has told civilians to take shelter because they are planning to do so.

I have no problem with any country fighting a terror war, but it becomes an issue if you end up killing tens of thousands of civilians and not the actual terrorists you claim to be fighting and then disregard international humanitarian law by cutting food, water, fuel and electricity to civilian population

such collective punishment is evil and it's against christian values.


To my fellow christian brothers and sisters support the genocide, where is your good heart?
Your sentiments are noble, but it takes 2 sides to make peace in any conflict. Hamas don't want peace. They only want a ceasefire in order to regroup and strike again
