They will fail, waste of time. Both candidates don't even have any Edo name.
he won't win ,but saying both of them don't have Edo names is false...we have Igbo-speaking,Yoruba-speaking and islamic faithfuls in Edo State..we don't discriminate in Edo State......kadiri is a popular name in Edo north...akpata is a popular name in Edo north.in short, Ondo and Edo bear 'akpata' more than any other part of Nigeria.

The only issue I have with him is both of them are from Edo north and Edo central is supposed to produce all candidates across parties

Celebrities / Re: Mohbad's Son, Liam Celebrates 1st Birthday by martineverest(m): 11:01am On Apr 12
FRANCISTOWN:


Some people will just wake one day and they will begin manifesting unfortunate behaviour like a mad person.

Mohbad was a black guy.
His supposed wife is a dark lady.

I understand there is something called a recessive or a throwback gene. Where children can pick their grandparent's colour.
Nevertheless, Mohbad's father is dark, his mother is also dark.

Where commeth a light skinned son?
If not that some people's brains have twisted (Opolo ti lo).

Aside that, the child has nothing in common with Mohbad, not even the eyes, or the nose or the mouth.

Yet some godforsaken earthly bastards children of doom said the child looks like the late Mohbad. Ha! Some of you will die tragically, I swr.
see as Photoshop filtering dey deceive u....

Phones / Re: US Sues Apple In Landmark iPhone Monopoly Lawsuit by martineverest(m): 8:01am On Mar 22
Namaster:
A waste of time and money.

Companies like Apple, Amazon, Google and Meta are immune to pesky things like lawsuits. Even from an entity as powerful as the US government.

First of all, they have an army of HIGHLY COMPETENT attorneys who live for legal warfare. They are paid FAT cheques to take the law and flog lawmakers with it.

Apart from their legal teams, Apple has a HORDE of customers whose devotion to them can be likened to that of religious extremist.

People sleep OUTSIDE in American weather just for a chance to get Apple's latest gadgets.

Plus, the people who have shares in Apple are movers and shakers of the US economy. They are not to be bleeped with.

For instance, companies like Berkshire Hathaway owns APPLE shares worth about $161B. For context, all the dollars in the Nigerian Foreign Reserves is just $34B. Despite the INSANE padding, Nigeria National Budget is about $19.6B.

BH has $161B in Apple.
BH has an ENORMOUS power in the US stock market.
And it's not even the only one.

This entire lawsuit is a joke.

The day I realized that some companies are bigger than the US company is the day I watched Mark Zuckerberg's testimony before the US Congress.

Mark REFUSED to answer any question straight.

If they ask "What is A?", Mark will reply with "I think Jerry from Tom and Jerry is gay".

All attempts to force him to give a straight answer were met with a variation of "go fuuuck yourself".

Now consider the fact that Apple is 200% BIGGER than Meta and you'll begin to understand why this lawsuits is just bored politicians looking for some short-lived excitement.
this comment is laughable..even Microsoft thats known to have the biggest and most powerful lawyers couldn't escape lawsuit......did u see what EU did to Apple earlier this month?.

iOS wall- garding is about to fall

You're very right.

You know some don't follow these events so they don't know.

The stiffness of apple in the EU is reducing.

They think foreign legislators and judiciaries are like the Nigerian ones.

Yes you have a right to do business but there are rules you must follow...monopoly never favours any sector.

Watching these lawmakers makes you understand the true meaning of legislation.

They actually fight for the people and make laws that make life better not only for themselves because there's accountability.



the lock-in approach apple is using is their monopolistic strategy that keeps them richer and richer...iOS is neither flexible for developers and users.they lock their users in the ecosystems to the extent that interoperability of iOS devices and other ecosystem devices is zero.

Microsoft faced this lawsuit about 20 years ago.its apple and Google's turn

Just watched on CNN about two minutes ago. And was like what is the meaning of this nonesense suit.

Wife was even surprised and asking why should Apple be sued for just doing business like all other Capitalists do

Rubbish!
goan read more about anticompetitive behaviours by big companies....EU sued apple and Google recently...Japan and Korea are also weighing same option


FYI,u can now download iOS apps from website in EU countries
