Yes because his father wants the Presidential ticket. Bala Muhammad eyes the Presidency. The northerners feel that they can battle BAT to reclaim the Presidency in 2027.

That aside, I doubt that Bala Muhammad has the political power nationwide to stop an Atiku interest. He can only stop Bauchi delegates from voting for Atiku in a PDP Presidential primary.

So citizens are now declared persona non grata in their own state by their state Governors, when they have political differences? The other day it was Kogi state Governor against Natasha.

Clergy men who find themselves in such positions, should do all that they can to unite their societies and communities. It is very disturbing that peace continues to elude Benue state. If it is not the marauding and destructive herdsmen, then it is the political leaders in the state, struggling for power and relevance. When will Benue state begin to experience peace and development?

As long as they are happy, that’s their business.

SAMBARRY:
exactly. Someone had to finally say it. I dont know why Nigerians can't look beyond their nose.once they just see people displaying money in a lousy way they'll start licking ass .it's so disgusting and very gross. Moreover you don't see people who sweated for their money and became billionaires behaving like that especially that cubana chief priest .even with the you must notice me by force that poverty behaviour has not left him

Can you compare these kinds of alleged billionaires with the likes of kuforiji, okeowo,eleganza ,wale adenuga and otedola. You see class,decency and elegance when they throw parties.you don't see them with any funny weird ass behaviour. But you see these categories of people that will go to club,buy 10 million naira drink and start pouring it on the ground,throwing money at people they all reek of ghetto notice me behaviour

Jealousy jeloma!

You can be rich and still act like a low class. His friends are 'low class money miss road men'.

Poor man and his talk.
Who can help you out with this mindset?
Even his “low class money miss road men”, na you go beg to work as their gatekeeper.

Truthfully?

Land grabber! I have heard discrimination and insult Igbos hauled at delta-igbos many times by saying "...if you want to be Igbos be Igbos, waiting be delta-igbo, kwa...? And insult or "efulefu" will follow. Many times Igbos mock their intonations and dialects and discriminate against them. But because this woman is successful, you quickly she is igbo, right? Even Igbos nearly convert Reno Omokri to Igbo if not because the guy una and knows his origin and history igbos

You do not know what you are talking about.

Congratulations to the Queen and Queen mother.

Accomplished Professor. The wife of a Professor and previous King. The mother of a Professor and reigning Obi of Ogwashi uku. The mother of an accomplished Princess, a Professor too and whose biography can fill many pages.

A very simple celebration. The family is known for their simplicity, accomplishments and organizational abilities.

Happy birthday.
Long live Mama.

Bro, we all know you are on Nairaland to talk about IPOB because they threaten your useless 'one Nigeria' that has never worked. Even if herdsmen kill 200 people in Benue State, Boko haram murders 50 people in Borno State, or ISWAP slaughters 100 people in Katsina, you guys won't say anything because those groups don't threaten to end the 'one Nigeria' you guys are corruptly benefiting from.


Unfortunately, you guys don't even have the wisdom to know that such a country is not sustainable, and is heading for collapse

"Dreadful" I will say NO. In football anything happens. Man city coach how far? How is market for him?
Coaches bring ideologies which may work or may not, some other coaches due counter it making it counterfoil. To me he is a finest coach

Mourinho, how far? The special one now struggling in the Turkish league. Did he ever envisage that? Who would ever have imagined that Mourinho would go to the Turkish league?

Ancelotti, how far? Who would have imagined that Arteta would defeat him and his almighty Madrid team with such margin?

So sad.
Chairman Chukwu.
Segun Odegbami
Muda Lawal
Aloysius Atuegbu
Adokiye Amaesiameka
Emmanuel Okala

The above names particularly instigated fear among opponents in African nations in their days. They were football warriors, who made going to the national stadium a must for everyone. That decrepit national stadium hosted these great men and the too many ers of the then Green Eagles. ers would spend the night waiting for gates to open. If you arrived late, you could not get in. Everyone had the Nigerian flag in his or her hand. Surulere was a powerful area to get to and reside. Ahhh.

Thank you Chairman Christian Chukwu, for those days that you made us all very happy and proud to be called Nigerians.

May his family be comforted.

That maga dog pain Bwala .
What is the meaning of maga dog?

The Js, Ss, 020s and As gave them away. That was absolutely criminal. A complete act of desperation. That group who headed the petition must be arrested and tried accordingly. By the way, where in the whole of this country would one find close to 250k constituents in two or three days, in such manner?

It is disgraceful that INEC did not on the instant subject those handwritings to forensic analysis. It is as clear as daylight, that there is a very organized attempt to muzzle Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan and ensure that she does not return to the Senate. This act must not be allowed to repeat itself.

I believe that Senator Natasha’s legal team will follow this matter up to its logical conclusion.

These man with questionable substance need to know Nigerians have moved far away from his flaunting of luxuries,,people have alot on their minds,alot going on with them

Well, sorry to tell you that Dino Melaye’s source of wealth is not unquestionable. You can read all about his life from the beginning and up till this day to prove how he came about his wealth.

Ndume: When you say kleptocrats, it's not like they are stealing.
They are in Government to make money.

But kleptomania is defined as an irresistible impulse to steal in the absence of any economic motive.

Ali Ndume politically avoided the definition of who a kleptomaniac is. Simply put a kleptomaniac is one who steals.

If they are not stealing, why are they kleptocrats? If they are not stealing, why are they so defined?

malali:
Let’s speak plainly — Tinubu has no plan. None. What started with hope has spiraled into blind economic pillaging.

Oil prices are crashing, yet instead of belt-tightening or fostering local production, he’s borrowing like a terminal gambler at the end of his tether. From fuel subsidy to forex, he’s removed every cushion from the average Nigerian’s life — without building a single project to show for the suffering.

Compare him to Obasanjo — who, despite criticisms, paid subsidies, built national infrastructure, secured debt forgiveness, and didn’t mortgage our children’s future in exchange for fragile IMF kudos. Tinubu? He’s selling off tomorrow for today’s press release.

He borrows with no repayment strategy, as if the loans only matter after he’s long gone. He’s looting our collective credit score, leaving a scorched-earth fiscal landscape for whoever comes next. Every contract, every deal, every policy reeks of survivalist governance — not nation-building.

We wanted a strategist.
We got a desperado with a calculator.
The painful truth: Tinubu’s presidency is costing us more than money — it’s bleeding our future.

100%

Very deceitful data. Very dubious, complete lie, complete fallacy.

So to the writer Lagos generated 10b. Now it is the business of states and no longer local governments standing on the own?

Get to Lagos and check out the revenue of Lagos Island alone, not to talk of Apapa, Ojo and Alimosho. These local governments alone generate revenues in hundreds of billions. Nonsense writer.

flokii:
Senator Ndume is just showing the side he belongs to.. those who didn't want PBAT to emerge as President in 2023.
Instead of facing the insurgency ravaging hs home State, he is busy throwing tantrums at Mr. Onanuga, an amiable SSA to President Tinubu.

So it is the duty of a Senator to attend to security matters? So it is the duty of a Senator to deploy soldiers or tell them what to do?

You must be the senior domestic servant on nonsense talk.

arantess:
Bayo na 70 years old SA

Agbaya!

SDS and not SSA according to Ndume.
Senior domestic servant. That was strong o. That is boy boy.

Scandium:
Is Ogwashi-Ukwu not the headquarters of Aniocha South? Why report it as Oshimili North. Or is there another Ogwashi-Ukwu in Oshimili North?

Why is this Ned wanting to force everyone in Delta North into a new state. Is it by force? Who send am? Who made him the spokesman of all Delta North (Anioma people). Who told him Anioma people want to leave Delta state and form a new state. The man is just fighting for a state where he will be a governor with ease.

That’s the fault of the writer. Ogwashi uku has always been the headquarter of Aniocha South.

The singular reason that took Ned to APC is the desire of Okowa to return to the Senate on the PDP ticket in 2027. Delta north is complete PDP territory. Okowa will beat any candidate hands down there.

Again, what’s the purpose for Sheriff to decamp to APC when he knows that APC cannot uproot PDP in Delta state as a whole. The major challenge for everyone of them is the Obidients. Even with Ibori trying to hand over Delta state to APC, they will lose woefully in 2027.

The Fulani man is certainly a Fulani man and the Niger Delta man knows himself and his family. Bala Muhammad can only confuse himself and his fellow Fulani people.

This country has been at war since 2015, when Buhari became the President and we were told of the Fulanis desire to capture the whole nation to the sea.

Why not tell us that a Niger Delta man is a Fulani man? Or that Yorubas, Igbos, Efiks, Itsekiris, Binis, etc are Fulani people. We hear the word globalized citizen when they want to serve the wicked and evil purposes. The Niger Deltans have diverse languages. There’s nothing like Niger Delta language.

Why identify Bayelsa as the place of the Fulanis?
Simply gather them together. Let there be ranches, built and well maintained by herdsmen. They can afford to build their ranches, or governors of the Fulani stock can kickstart it for them. They have no business moving from place to place, killing, raping and destroying peoples properties. Even with the livestock ministry established because of them, there’s no peace anywhere in the country.

I think Buba Galadima has miscalculated completely.
By his words, I perceive that Galadima has in a subtle manner informed us of the intention of El Rufai to contest the Presidency in 2027 and 2031. El Rufai cannot be a placeholder to anyone; not even when he was not at this height in his political trajectory.

I do not foresee the fusing together of parties in the like of APC in 2014 happening again. Some of the major players in 2014, either have remained with the APC, decamped or chosen to stay aloof.

Atiku has over the years moved from PDP to ACN, to APC and back to PDP. He was also a member of SDP in the days of Abiola/Shehu Yaradua. The last election taught him a deep lesson. He lost two people strong persons because of his miscalculations. They were Peter Obi and Nyesom Wike. Obi had the people and Wike had the financial muscle. Presently, Atiku is getting de-marketed by Wike and co., but even at that, he has no reason at this stage of his political career to return to SDP, where he knows that his chances would be much lower.

We must also not forget that by their power sharing calculations, the South has a further four years to do after 2027. BAT intends to complete two as is customary with them. How to defeat BAT on the platform of PDP should be Atiku’s priority. Who will be the suitable southern candidate to go against BAT should be the priority. APC is the ruling party, with a strong southern candidate. APC will not give chances, especially as the party intends to handover to a northern candidate in 2031, if possible. Therefore northern of the APC will not fold their hands and watch the party lose to any other party, not especially to the north in 2027.

How to reposition PDP, badly damaged by the same Galadima, Atiku and co, should be uppermost in his heart.

I do not expect SDP to make more inroads than it made in 2023. There’s no nationally accepted leader in the party, who can galvanize the citizens. El Rufai certainly is not in that mould.

No matter the permutations, moving over to SDP for 2027, will prove a costly mistake to Atiku.

National chairman who made his pronouncement after eating eba and egusi soup right at his dining table.

National chairman who cannot enter the secretariat to make his comment.

National chairman who knows that his time was up long ago.

National chairman who thinks that he can continue to trouble the party endlessly.

National chairman who was beaten and disgraced to the view of the whole world.

No be only Lamidi Apapa. Na Lamidi Ajegunle.

Not at all,I was just wondering why someone would loot that much and think they won't come after him if he remains in Nigeria..

Unfortunately we don't have strong systems in place to discourage this looting and corruption and that is why when the average Nigerian finds himself in such tempting positions he ends up falling because look at how people like Yahaya bello and his likes are living freely and are even trying to sabotage a dully elected senator so as to take her position and escape trail..

That is why the average Nigerian would rather still massively when given the opportunity because those who are supposed to be leaders to show examples are worse,from the Number 1citizen down to the Judiciary and police all rotten to the core.

Real sad and as long as Nigerians are NOT ready to change and start electing the right people to power,Nigerians will continue to steal when they get the chance to do so. It is what it is sadly.

Thank you for correcting yourself.

Integrity is a serious problem in our nation. We are at the level where stealing, looting and all forms of corrupt practices no longer matter to the people. Bring home the money, no matter the source and get the praise and .

We need strong, honest leaders, who can help us get out of the mess.

Cheers.

So you belive that an official stole 35 billion from First Bank?

“ In the affidavit, Nadabo told the court that Tijani worked at the settlement office of the bank and that he had the capacity to carry out some inalienable access available only to the office by virtue of his office.

He stated further in the affidavit that “He, therefore, carried out illegal, unauthorised and fraudulent activities against First Bank Nigeria Plc.

“Investigation has thus far revealed and traced the sum of N35billion (Thirty Five Billion Naira) benefitted by Muiz Tijani Adeyinka and his cronies”.


Did you read the above part of the story? If you did, were the words difficult for you to understand?

torqque7:
What type of bank official will have such access to this kinds of amount of not managers or really high ranking officials at managerial levels? With access to this kind of money why will I be in Nigeria instead of investing and living abroad to enjoy the loot?

So if given such an opportunity, your preferred action would be to loot the company that you were employed to be part of its success story. How can you expect to invest any money that you stole and have peace? the words “no peace for the wicked”?

What a shame.

35b? A bank staff? Wetin come remain for the bank? He should kuku have carried the carcass of the bank away.

Penguin2:

We can’t fold our hands and think Abure, Apapa and Arabambi will just disappear.

We have to fight them off; especially now we are on the right side of the law.

That’s it bro.
I expect them to battle to the end.
Do not forget Apapa. After the attack on his person, I thought he had taken the back seat. Suddenly he’s up again. They are all waiting to get illegal court injunction to stop the party. Hopefully NLC and other unions can push them away from all party offices nationwide.

No Kano governor’s delegate to visit Delta state to see the state of affairs with herdsmen there. No NEF asking for compensation for the evil done by these northerners in the entire south. No where is safe in the south anymore. Even riverine areas have been completely invaded, while the people of the land have been disarmed and handcuffed. They are at the mercy of their wicked invaders.

No Southerner can ever dare go to the North to kidnap or harm anyone either in the farms or the streets.

When will a state of emergency be declared on this act of wickedness by these so called herdsmen? What’s the business of herdsmen with leaving their cows to kidnap people for ransom and kill at will? Is it not time to allow citizens to arm themselves to defend their families and communities?

Is it not time for people to take up arms and wage war against these evil fellows? Whole communities, families and generations have been wiped away by these vampires, while people only get promises of @government is dealing with it”.

Where is Peter Obi? Ordinary Anambra State Labour Party he can’t put in order yet he wants to put Nigeria in order!

Scam alert ‼️

Peter Obi lives rent free in your head.

Not only house to put the house in order. It is to put your one room in order for you.

openmine:
The matter of Abure was gone the moment supreme court stated that the lower courts that pronounced him as the authentic national chairman of LP had no jurisdiction to interfere in party matters!

In other words,it validates the initial stance of INEC who had refused to recognize Julius Abure as the national chairman of LP because they were not present at the national convention held by Abure at Nnewi,Onitsha!

INEC refusal to recognize the leadership of Abure not only invalidates the national convention on 27 March,2025 but also renders any NWC created by him as a nullity!

The initial position taken by INEC can be likened to an EPL game between Manchester united vs Manchester city with no referee sent to officiate the game!
No matter the outcome of the game,it stands invalidate and inconsequential without the umpire!
The only way such game can be made authentic is for the game to be replayed with a referee officiating!
Hence,The only way for INEC to recognize the LP leadership is for a national convention to be held again with the right things done which is participating and performing their over site functions as an umpire in LP's ward to LGA to state congress to national convention!

That’s exactly the situation.

Abure is simply trying to spoil the chances of his own party. He simply would have allowed the party elect the new officers last year, and try to contest again.
