Politics / Re: Security Operatives Storm Dikko's Residence In Abuja by Psalm18: 2:54pm On Jan 08, 2016
Expectedly.

One of the many thieves.

Effc should go beyond arrest and build a case even the devil will be afraid to act as counsel in court.
The disappointment will be after all these, EFCC through tardiness or been bribed fails to prosecute diligently.

Politics / Re: Evidence Magu, EFCC Chairman Lied On ‘No Petition Against APC Members-Thewhistle by Psalm18: 2:06pm On Jan 08, 2016
prettyboi1:
A lot of Nigerians don't understand how government works. The president is the head of the federal government... not state government. Now,the president's business is at the federal level. If the president sees anything that doesn't match up in federal documents,then he can decide to ask for those documents and the people involved to be probed. The word 'probe' in simple English means to understand, find reason why,inquire etc. Probing is not punishment like a lot of Nigerians think. Let me give another example...the defence students do for thesis,what the lecturers ask you can also be called 'probing'.
Now,that said,this letter in this picture is no evidence that Rotimi Amaechi stole that said amount,it is only a letter by a probably concerned group of people (as the case may be). Their concern doesn't necessarily make their accusations true,but this is where probing in Rivers state can possibly come in. The governor,Nyesom Woke can now research and investigate to find out if these allegations are true....if they are true,he can ask for more clarity by probing the last administration led by Rotimi Amaechi. After the probing,if any evidences of theft are found against Amaechi,he and other of such people found wanting in the investigation can be charged to court to go defend themselves. That's how it works,people.

Well.written but the crux at hand is simple
Why has EFCC not invited Amaechi to clarify these allegations.
That's what people are agitating not that Buhari should arrest Amaechi.
I frankly don't have time to go into a long rebuttal on what you wrote.
So I'll just cite a few examples.
Orji uzor kalu was charged to Court based on petition when he was governor.
Ditto- saminu Turaki, late Audu, ex Imo governor (can't remember his name)
Based on petitions written against them, that could not be prosecuted when they were governors. As soon as they lost immunity, efcc hauled them in.


A minister does not have immunity, a petition has been written against him. EFCC should take him in.

Furthermore, let's say tomorrow, Fayose finishes his tenure. And apc takes over and a group writes a petition against him.
Your guess is as good as mine what will happen to Fayose within 48 hours of leaving govt house.

Finally, EFCC has constantly said, there is no petition or any cause to investigate Amaechi, at least online apc supporters have said that.
Well here it is in black and white: a petition with Amaechi name written on it.

omenka:
It is evident that a petition has since been filed against Amaechi and it would be totally unfair to sweep it under the rug. The war against corruption must be all encompassing.

Buhari must, as a matter of principle, try to avoid bearing any moral burden (just as he did by getting rid of Lamorde) that may take the wind out his sail as regards the anticorruption crusade.

The government of Rivers state must also play their part by ensuring all evidence are made available to the antigraft agencies and, if need be, published on the social media so we the people can put as much pressure as we can on the authorities to do their job which they should do without prodding.

Applause

As someone rightly said except Soyinka was given cash, Wike is wasting time dragging his name. The prof is a global citizen who has achieved much, hosting him to dinner is not an isssue. If Wike wants to squeeze Amaechi I expect him to probe areas like

The rivers rail system
Hospital, schools and other infrastructure amaechi handled.
Then, we can tell if Amaechi is corrupt or not.

I'm drawing attention again to the prosecution team of efcc.
Nigerians should not be surprised if this man was to walk free.
Either incompetency or through bribes.

Trials are not done on pages of newspaper and internet forum but proving the case in court.
Efcc legal team has LOST more high profile cases than WON

Something must be happening at EFCC allowing big men to walk while only petty 419ers are jailed.

I have been seeing people raising this issue every now and then. Maybe it's the same person using different handles. I know the point to all this is so it hits the front-page. I hope the mods don't fall for this cheap trick.

Each day people die and are buried.

Why is this logic so difficult for people to understand?

People also get married silently without noise and owambe.
Different people ;different culture.
In Islam, once a person dies, he is buried.
If the Alams family, wants to mourn quietly.
What's the issue?

If you are unsatisfied, go to Bayelsa and ask his family for the burial ground and see if you come back unscath.
Poems For Review / Re: My Love Is Hatred by Psalm18: 3:13pm On Jan 06, 2016
emaculate99:

Thank you for critiquing the poem. There are different types of meaning- Conceptual meaning, Collocative meaning, Thematic meaning, Reflected meaning, Affective meaning, Social meaning, and Connotative meaning- it is not necessary to interpret a word with its conceptual meaning, you can employ other types of meaning too.
Moreover, poets are users of words and tend to use other types of meanings when writing poems. If you are a poet, you should know this.
Furthermore, I'm eager to know where the rhymes you said I am interested in are by pointing them to me. With this, I will not make such mistake in future. Thanks for your critique.

OK. .I wish you success on your choosen path.

I see you emailed me. I checked and didn't see anything. If u could, send me the message directly from your own email.
Thanks.

The other fellow asking me for clarification.
I'm just going to put up three poems.
All 3 seem playful
2 of them are poems with serious value and
1 is just playful verse yet effort was put to it.

Can you tell which is of artistic value?

Remember, while poetry is subjective, there is still chaff from the real thing.

What you just displayed is called Pride. If I'm ignorant of the types of rhymes, I wouldn't ve made mention of 'End Rhyme'. Besides, that was my first time of commenting in the Litrature section.

Just in case you didn't notice in my first comment, I politely asked you to enlighten the house on the rhymes you saw in the poem. We are all learning here. It's not enough to criticise someone's literary work as a critic; you are expected to highlight your points with references.

Thank you.

Read the verses, each beginning of the lines in all 6 or 7 stanzas begin with rhyming.
I apologize I simply don't have the time to point out one after the other.
Any student of literature can see it for themself.
Keep in mind, there is NOTHING wrong with use of rhymes in poetry.
I was more critical of how he failed to convey deep emotion and was more interested in rhyming.
Were a word that does not sound melodious would have given more conviction he elected for words that sounded 'sweet'.

Secondly his choices of words were curious to say the least.
What pray tell me is the word 'lamina' doing in the first stanza ?

Lamina means- a thin sheet of plate, a flat surface
It also part of the anatomy of plants: the leaves or something. Not sure again.
How does using that word help pass anything to the reader?
Was it there just because it sounded and rhymes with what came before?

Literature at least serious literature requires deep effort and thinking.
Verses and 'cute' composition are also nice and have its place. Again I assumed by putting it in the fpage, the OP wanted pointers and ideas.

If he is just doing it for fun. Then I say thumbs up. Not everyone has to be a poet.
Poems For Review / Re: My Love Is Hatred by Psalm18: 11:52am On Jan 06, 2016
Sparklesebony:


Pls, has the dictionary & literary definition of ryhme changed? Because, in the whole verses/stanzas of the poem, it's only two stanzas that have two lines each having end rhymes. If you see any other, pls enlighten the house.

Your issue is your lack of proper education about poetry and literature.
There are over six kinds of ryhme schemes

Start from there. Read up on them
And then go back and read his verses(which is a more accurate description of what the OP wrote)

Again this (what Op wrote) is not serious poetry but verses filled with ryhmes.

I believe by putting it on front page, the OP wanted constructive criticism. I'm most times at home in the politics section and have never visited the literature board so don't know what you folks do down there.
If you don't criticize each other work, when it calls for it, then you are really not ready to move into serious literature.
Maybe the OP just wanted to show his 'skills' as a versifier, if that's the case. I apologize.
Poems For Review / Re: My Love Is Hatred by Psalm18: 10:47am On Jan 06, 2016
You were more interested in words that ryhme and not the depth of emotions which poetry is meant to convey.
