DissTroy:and who think the people who are behind those oil leakages will be happy with you? Especially when you know they're members of you political party and they pull more than enough political weight to make your presidency fail. Next is ensuring strong institutions. Why are politicians jailed for corruption released in months? Why do Yahoo boys get 6 months imprisonment but a hungry man who stole ogbono soup jailed for 3 years. Strong institutions.institutions that have been compromised? If not for Onnoghen's removal, would we have known judges can be bribed? A determined president would ensure a welcome policy like the Whistle Blower policy of GMB doesn't die. That's help cut corruption.yes of course, after blowing the whistle, your details will be released and those whom you blew the whistle on will come avenging. Kindly note the police won't come to your rescue. They might even tell you they don't have fuel in their Hilux to use to come to your aid. 2 Likes |

izzou: Shaqfu is the classic Devil's Advocate. He enjoys going against a crowd even if his direction is heading off a cliff, and argues mostly for that sake - arguing. It's not farfetched to posit he's lounging in a bar this minute with both his legs on a high table and beer bottles all over. Ask him the same questions tomorrow and he'd shift grounds. Joe, how many bottles are you on now? Be honest with me. 3 Likes |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by ShaqFu: 10:47pm On Jan 07, 2023 |
izzou:of course, laws keeps us in check, 200 million people won't change overnight because they're so use to living and breaking the law. Imagine Rufai Oseni, who drove on BRT lane harassing an police officer and threatening him with calling the governor. Kindly note, he's a coded Peter Obi supporter oh. Would he have even apologized if he wasn't codedly told to do so. Abegi bros leave matter. |

ShaqFu: Nowhere did i mention Obi in my quotes to you. I wonder why it is coming up. Rufai used the lane because he knew the laws were weak, and the institutions were not strong (he had the option of calling the governor in his mind, to override the law) Let the law be forfeiture of vehicle if you pass the BRT lane. Let the government use people as examples, including people in power Then come back and tell me if Rufai or Ikedia will have the balls to pass that lane in his lifetime. 3 Likes |

GloriousGbola:A person is well brought up because of the values instilled in them from home and by society through LAWS. The reason why a person would not rape or steal even when they can is because of the laws they grew under, laws which have conditioned them to respond in specific ways to specific situations. Of course, it doesn't mean that there won't be instances where children that have been properly brought up will go against their default conditioning, but it's rare, and if you look deep enough, you'd find there probably was a chink in their up bringing which the prarents missed or overlooked. 1 Like |

Donjazet2: ![]() ![]() I think the problem here is u want to so much be able to say “I told u so!” . That’s probably why u didn’t see the mischief of the writer of that news piece for people’s Gazette . The author quoted Tinubu’s speech and nowhere did he mention “Igbo’s overcrowding Lagos “ or any of the xenophobic tribal narratives u are arrogating to Tinubu . What Tinubu said is basically normal political talks aspirants say to demarket other aspirants ; in fact most of what he said at the event should not be new to u cos it has been repeated over and over on this thread. Tinubu threw a dog at Obi that Anambran’s have overcrowded Lagos because Peter Obi their former governor didn’t do much to develop the state ; instead he only saved money while Anambrans are hungry . Nowhere did Tinubu single out the Igbo tribe like the author of the article alluded . Saying Peter Obi didn’t do well in Anambra resulted in Anambrans trooping to Lagos is not the same thing as denigrating a whole tribe ( like u always say ) . Except u and the author are saying the moment Tinubu threw a dig at Peter Obi over his time as Anambra governor ; that Tinubu has already insulted all igbos . I think what u are doing here is no different from what BATists have been doing trying to make at least one corruption allegation stick on Obi despite him not having a records of him being charged officially for any corruption case . I am not the greatest fan of Tinubu , but I don’t like to just form scenarios in my head just to paint him bad . 11 Likes 3 Shares |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by ShaqFu: 11:13pm On Jan 07, 2023 |
izzou:exactly what I'm saying. Knowing the laws are weak, yet you still do the right thing. Not break the law and start claiming to be a saint when you're far from it. In this country, obeying the law and doing what is right will make people see you as a fool. Come to think of it, Lagos state government have started impounding vehicles of traffic offenders. I remember the case of one guy who broke traffic law, his vehicle was auctioned only for Twitter users to start calling for people to make contributions to him to help him buy another vehicle. Bros abeg make we leave matter for matthais. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Theflint1(m): 11:14pm On Jan 07, 2023 |
BlueRayDick:I get the point you're making, but will Tinubu say this same thing to an Atiku? Him saying that Anambarians have left their state because of Peter Obi, what stat his he drawing from to make that assumption, none. What if people from Anambra are in fact the least populated Igbos in Lagos? Him referring to people from Anambra is him in fact referring to all Igbos, cause I'm very sure he's not working based off any stat to have come to the conclusion he has. This thing Tinubu and others on Nairaland say is a form of ethnic dog whistling, while it's understandable if people on Nairaland not contesting for president of Nigeria to say it, it's totally out of place for Tinubu to be caught saying same. 8 Likes |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by BlueRayDick: 11:34pm On Jan 07, 2023 |
Theflint1: That is why it’s all politics talk . U hit ur opponent where u think it will pain more . There has been talks of Obi residing in Lagos ( Which to me is no big deal cos most past governors are not under any compulsion to continue to reside in their state after their term in office . Fayose of Ekiti lives here in same Lagos ) . Atiku and his Mikano boys attack Tinubu steady based on his obvious ill health , his gaffes and fraudulent claim of building Lagos . Almost everything Tinubu said at the venue has been repeated here by Tinubu supporters over and over again. It doesn’t necessarily make it true or false . Tinubu is only trying to win votes by saying Obi is responsible for Anambrans trooping to Lagos . If anybody is seeing that as tribalism aimed at all Igbo’s , I guess the writer of the people Gazette’s piece was successful to have twisted the narrative as against what he quoted in the body of the news piece . 3 Likes |

ShaqFu: So which people of repute are enforcing the laws on one ways in Lagos? One of the best electrical cables to use are Made in Nigeria ones (You can ask around). So which people of repute ensured that these cables are manufactured up to standard? Suddenly, we don't have air crashes like before again.

I so much try to avoid people that play the tribalism card all over the place, and they are lowkey coded tribalist. Any small thing, tribalism. Any small movement to have a meaniful argument, tribalism. And their comments anywhere you see them in any political talk is lowkey laced with tribalism. If a Yoruba man supports Tinubu, he is a tribalist, but if an Igbo man supports Obi, it is because he wants the best for Nigeria. ABEG! You all are Hypocrites. Hypocrisy all over the thread! And any small thing, you all are already shouting Tribalism. Can I go a day without reading it on this thread? COME ON! 14 Likes 5 Shares |

BlueRayDick: Blueray, for a moment take a little time to just read this excerpt, if you can't see the tribal undertones that lace this rant, I don't know what to say to you. Most especially compared to what his established tribalistic followers do say everytime. That igbos leave their bad land and come to Lagos to constitute nuisance. In this post below, take note of where he warns; "TAKE NOTE OF THOSE THAT SELL FAKE MERCHANDISE". Blueray which tribe is usually steroetyped as sellers of fake goods in market?? If you want to pretend that you don't see the deeply tribal and divisive undertones and Rhetorics this man's words here carry and how they serve as enabler to the types of dayo or other tribalists here, I don't know what to say to you other than you are playing the ostrich.. I mean for God's sake just read the tone of the entire thing and tell me this kind of narrative is good anyway. That such narratives don't heat up the polity. Just calma and read it. 9 Likes 3 Shares
