Disturbing

Stop whatever you are doing at the moment and reading this speech that I’m not sure what exactly it is about is just fine. Because I don’t think I get it at all, I need someone to help interpret to me. Because If a Governor can be so wealthy at such a gender age in a state so ridden with poverty so much that it’s people are known around the country, then everything is not alright. Read message below:

Ebony state Governor David Umahi recently shocked the world, especially Nigerians with his revelation about his early wealth accumulation in life.

Gov. DavidUmahi of #EbonyiState has revealed how he became a billionaire at 25 years of age due to hard work and commitment to duty.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that Umahi made the declaration while interacting with leaders of #Abakpa main market in #Abakaliki.

He debunked social media reports that he owns shops at the market and built his house within one year.

“I work very hard, I am not a poor person but a very, very rich person. You can’t use the state’s money and still do all these things (projects) we are doing, I don’t have any shop or any interest in the market,” he added.

My people, did you understand how he did that? Did you see what I can’t see? Maybe you read a part where he talked about how he made it happen, because I didn’t. Talk about a grown up weirdness. If you weren’t intending to explain the way this whole talk was beneficial to us all, why then did you even start it? The EFCC should carefully look into this talk and have him explain himself very well to them because we don’t understand it.

Openly saying this whole your fellow state men and women lavish in abject poverty is disturbing and unbelievably bold in a time like this where the fear of EFCC is the beginning of wisdom.

There are such mean things being said to people on a daily basis on social media and it is just hurtful to see. Why will you take time out to project your life’s insecurities on some other person due to your lack of control on meanness. Just look at what a normal man is sending to his fellow him a being as if he is God. What kind of rubbish talk is this? This woman has been open about his medical conditions and others things that have prevented her from being a mother and yet someone felt the very need to say these things to her on her 45th birthday? You can imagine what’s kind of life this man has. He is miserable and disappointing himself at his achievements so far. This is just horrible.

from @nseikpeetim – Some say I am a strong woman
Some tell me I am a brave woman
Some think I should be more of a woman
Some will tell you I’m a good woman
While some think I’m not much of a woman
Or at all like any woman they ever knew
And that I could be so much more

But all I am is a woman
All I am is my woman
I am the woman I can be
The one I want to be
Not the one I should be, could be, would be
Not so much more, too much like, or nearly so – Absent Wryta 📸: @kunmi.owopetu

#BirthdayBehaviour #BigAnnouncementSoon #TheSilentTsunami #LoveAndLight #NseIkpeEtim #OctoberBaby #FortyFive #FortyFine –

from @nseikpeetim – I think growing is beautiful once you’re on a journey to self-actualization and constant self-evaluation but my birthdays have become rather normal every year. Not because I don’t get “Prezzies” or throw parties but because it’s a constant reminder of my journey; where I am and where I’m headed possibly.

I really don’t care how long, truly; I care about how well I’ve lived and the things I would have done. Everyday I’m thankful. I don’t look forward to birthdays, it’s funny that I actually forgot it was October and thought we were in November because I blurted it out. I guess I’m just thankful for every single experience and every single person that’s come into my life.

I probably don’t have enough gratitude so I’m just saying thank you. My family and friends are my backbone. I really don’t know how I feel about being 45 by the way; I don’t feel anything, really; just grateful to continue the journey.

I’ve learnt not to take life for granted, that’s my greatest lesson and because of that I live it deliberately, because it’s an amazing gift and I think for where I’m at now, I’m happy that there are people who I’ve affected by my work, and I think that’s one of my greatest joys. I’m grateful for that. That is what helps me to be truly who I am. And yes I might have little deposits of different people inside of me which is okay because I’ve been through all kinds of characters. But Nse is still a little shy inside, Nse would still hurt but Nse will love even when she’s hurt because as I cry so would I laugh because life is indeed too short, and we should maximize each moment and what it brings because we may not have many of them, and these moments all contribute to the robust experience of expressing all of ourselves and being all we can be, so that life doesn’t end in regret and what could have been.

That’s really my philosophy.

Ps. Watch this space for a big announcement this week. 😉 📸: @kunmi.owopetu

The horror that was served to the ever busy, ever ready business Men and women of Anambra state famous market in Onitsha, has gotten the attention and empathy of Nigerians, especially the direct sufferers of the market who had their shops burned down to the ground in a space of hours, and it is Said to be  heightened by a tanker explosion.

The video which was posted to soicial Media had many people reacting out to showing support, expression disappointment in the governor Willie Obiano, who uptill now I still can’t relate why the fault is going back to him. The video showed a very disturbing fire engulfing stores in the famous Onitsha market.

Just as you can see in the photos, the fire destroyed alot of store items, and many have concluded that a life was lost according to the body bag being lifted away from the scene of terror.

However, famously expressive on apolitical exile Reno Omokri, is coming out to ask for help from well meaning Nigerians who have more than enough to spare for the hopelessness of a fellow human. The facial expression of this couple will however tell you that all hope has been lost to this incident.

Some insentive fellow store owner who made one of  the videos that have been going viral, was weird enough to mention that he is glad it didn’t get to his shop. I Mean, everyone can tell that you are glad it didn’t get to your store, but despite your gratitude, your expression can be interpreted into something more of mean and mocking. You just didn’t have to express that right at that point whike  making a video of someone’s shopping burning down to the ground. That’s my thought I don’t know of yours.

The issue of road worthiness for nigetian vehicles is a total case for another day, as the road Marshalls and patrol officers are falling short of expectation in keeping unbelievably damages vehicles off the road. A little bribery to these people will go along in ensuring thag their vehicles are kept on the road. This si the second tanker horribly breaking down in the Nigerian road this week. The first was the Lagos mile 2 tanker that got its content spilled all over the street, and people were seen scooping petrol to their bikes and vehicles. That was the scariest event of the week, and now this went to the main market where people were seated and unsuspecting.

from @renoomokri  – I urge all those who very kindly gave huge sums of money to Tacha of #BBNaija, to please consider doing same to someone in genuine need. Uchechukwu lost his life’s possessions. He is not glamorous like Tacha, but he matters to God. My God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in Christ, as you do this act of love. In Christ’s name.

#OnitshaMarketFire

Reposted from @channelstelevision (@get_regrann) – On Wednesday, October 17, 2019, a fuel tanker exploded in Onitsha, Anambra State in southeast Nigeria. Two casualties – a mother and her child – have been reported so far with several buildings and lock-up shops damaged.

Reacting to the incident, President Buhari in a statement signed by his Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu said: “I am profoundly touched by the sight of the charred remains of an innocent mother and her child who are victims of this tragedy.” “I also extend my sympathies to other victims of the explosion whose houses, shops and other property were destroyed in the mishap.” The President, however, called for urgent precautionary measures to be applied to steam the tide of frequent road tragedies. “While I express sadness over this tragedy, I must at the same time call for urgent action on the part of those concerned to stem these frequent fatal disasters on public roads. “Safety precautions and routine maintenance are taken for granted by vehicle owners.

from @renoomokri  – To God be the glory, I have found him. His name is Uchechukwu Ukaepu. We video called to confirm he is the one. I thank Osita Chidoka, who just made a donation to add to mine. I urge Nigerians to assist him directly at Uchechukwu ukaepu Diamond Bank 0074695758. Please do it for God and because I am begging you. #OnitshaMarketFire

Pastor Joshua Mone was on Thursday remanded in prison by a Magistrate Court sitting in Ekpan-Warri, #DeltaState, for alleged rape and indecent assault.

According to theNigerianlawyer.com, the General Overseer of Voice of Liberty Church is facing a three count charge bothering on rape, indecent assault and obtaining by false pretence of a member of his congregation, Miss Ojaruwedae Emarieta.

In the suit with Charge No: MEK/62c/2019, Prosecuting counsel informed the court that “the defendant allegedly deceived the said victim that he wanted to see a fellow pastor requesting her to accompany him.

The unsuspecting victim followed him without suspecting any foul-play. He took her to Jovi Garden located at Udu road, where he allegedly put a certain substance in her drink which left her drowsy and he allegedly raped her. .

When she regained consciousness he threatened her that if she reports to anybody she was going to die and that the person she reports to will die also. He, thereafter, obtained monies from her regularly under the guise of sowing seeds.”

The Magistrate ordered that Joshua be remanded in prison custody and then adjourned the matter till October, 15, 2019, for a return date and for filling of information.

If ever there is a time for you cotpers to redeem yourself, then it is now. They have said that you people can not read and write. And while it is not really EVERYONE, it is a hand full of graduates. So many of them can’t really do some  things that are expected of a graduate. The National Youth Service Corps has concluded whole revealing, that it will now hand over unqualified graduates to the police for prosecution, and this can only be dictated by the simplest tasks. And that will specifically be about asking them to recite the English Alphabet. Lol😅😅 They have added that some of the graduates cannot recite the English alphabet and do not know a bank statement.

The NYSC Director-General, Brig. Gen. Shuaibu Ibrahim, stated this on Thursday in Abuja at a press conference, noting that according to the NYSC Act, such fake graduates are liable to two years in jail.

Ibrahim also noted that 4,644,804 Nigerians had participated in the scheme since inception in 1973, saying the scheme had been able to achieve national integration. .

After all said and done, Nigerians simply want you to increase the allowance these corpers are given monthly.

Worried by the continued influx of fake and sub-standard Liquefied Petroleum Gas cylinders into Nigeria, a cooking gas advocate has warned that Nigerian homes may start experiencing ‘bomb-like’ explosions in their kitchens, on account of fake cylinders.

The warning follows reports that N38m worth of cooking gas cylinders have been impounded by the Nigerian Customs Service in the latest clampdown on importers of fake cylinders.

On August 1, the Director-General of the Standards Organisation of Nigeria, Mr. Osita Aboloma, announced that hundreds of imported cylinders were impounded for failing to meet safety requirements.

Analysts say that N38m is capable of bringing up to 1.8 million cylinders into the country. They add that less than one million Nigerian homes currently use LPG for their cooking.

As a normal person who is definitely constantly cooking on a regular basis, it scares me to know that fake cylinders have made their way comfortably into the society. This means that any cylinder you are looking at right this moment, is potentially an explosive waiting to happen. So this scares me so well. And you can imagine just how many people are potential victims. God help us.

Wadume: DHQ panel concludes report, soldiers risk dismissal

The seven-man Joint Investigative Panel set up by the Defence Headquarters, Abuja, to probe the killing of three policemen in Ibi, Taraba State, has concluded its report and would submit it to the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen Abayomi Olonisakin, on Monday.

Top military sources said the report was believed to have indicted some army and police personnel as well as a few civilians, noting that the officers and soldiers would likely face court-martial and dismissal, “going by their level of culpability.” The panel concluded its work on Friday after sitting for three days at the Defence Intelligence Agency, Abuja, during which it grilled army officers, soldiers, policemen and the suspected kidnap kingpin, Hamisu Wadume.

Credit to from @renoomokri  – Just look at that! 3 days ago, a Katsina bandit revealed on @MobilePunch that they get armed by helicopters who drop weapons for them. Now Kidnapper, Wadume, exposes @APC as his sponsors. The truth is unraveling. We are back in Abacha days!

They say don’t judge a book by its cover, and that is what is going on here. We have always known Miley to be the wild weed smoking and Nude dropping hillbilly that she is, while her man Liam Hemsworth  is very reserved and chilled. Knowing Miley is always the one to be blamed for everything that tends to destroy them, it is easy to over look the fact that Liam could be the one with the drug and alcohol problem, and this could be the reason why he has always loved Miley, hashing to live off her very well known life style, while hiding under the umbrella of being the victim here.

According to her Revelation (you can read blow), she is admitting to have been trying out the drug and alcohol party kind of life before now, but being a grown woman, she has decided for herself the things she wants to continue in life and those she needs to quit.

So with Drugs and Alcohol being the ones she wants to quit, she Is not going to let anyone pull her back into that life style. She understands just right how easy it is for her to be seen as the bad guy.

From Miley’s point of view, we knew she want going to be quite for long, even though she new song is being used to turn lemon into lemonade, being sucking fans while they hear of the

A new hiding place has been discovered by the law enforcement. The fact that these drug dealers are constantly on a discovery process to keep their business happening, means that the law enforcement

A video has been discovered of a law enforcement cutting open a  batch of onions so that should they can find what has been shown in the scan. Looking confusing initially up until a big bulb of onions was cut open and viola!!!! A batch of illicit drugs were found hidden inside the onions. How did they get it in there?

The war against drugs has offically made its way to all strata of the functional Nigerian society, from consumption back up to the importation/infiltration point, and I am here for it.

Contrary to what many have  been saying about the government agency turning a blind eyes when these drugs are being imported, they are however making the biggest drug burst for our society.

A truck-load of the banned drug, tramadol and others illicit drugs worth N5 billion have been intercepted by the Nigerian Customs Service in Lagos.

If a N5million drug is confiscated, that simple means that this is a very big business for a group of people. And if they can buy a quantity this much, then they can convince the government  to release this one too.

The spokesman for the service, Joseph Attah, said the smugglers believed that festive period was a time of merriment and less vigilance, “but our officers intercepted the illicit drugs as the smugglers attempted to move it from Lagos to other parts of the country’’.

It is always going to be an easy dispersion whenever the goods find their way into the country. And this no exception.

“On Aug. 13, at about 2 a.m, operatives of the Headquarters Strike Force Zone A intercepted a truck laden with dreaded codeine, tramadol and other controlled pain killers along Maryland, Ikeja road.

The shocking number of people who have lost their minds to these illicit drugs, will only make you understand the extent  this fight will have to go.

The team leader of the force, Assist. Comptroller of Customs Usman Yahya, deepened preliminary investigation that led to the discovery of a warehouse along Oshodi-Mile 2 road.

Of course it is a huge business. The information on the endless supply and use will give you the height of solid structure this business has.

The warehouse was stocked with tramadol, codeine and other unregistered pharmaceutical products without the National Agency for Foods Drugs Administration and Control (NAFDAC) number,” Attah said.

Attah said the Comptroller-General of Customs (CGC), Col. Hameed Ali (rtd), had already directed a thorough investigation with a view to bringing all those connected to the drugs to justice.

Good Job gentle men.

from @shaunking – I need you to know these names and know these stories. I need you to internalize the true cost of white supremacist terrorism in this country. On the left is Jordan Anchondo and on the right is her husband Andre Anchondo. Say those names out loud. This is them with two of their children. Jordan had just had a baby, Paul, their first son, this past June. Andre had just finished building their new home and the couple went out to Wal Mart with their newborn baby Paul to grab some school supplies and food for a big party they were throwing that afternoon. The party was celebrating their new home, their wedding anniversary, and the birthday for their 6 year old daughter, who is pictured here with them. It was a routine Saturday morning. Then a white supremacist armed with a weapon of war walked right into the Wal Mart. Andre died shielding his wife from the bullets. Jordan then died shielding baby Paul from the bullets, breaking multiple bones in his new body. The baby survived but his parents have been slaughtered. Their other two young children no longer have a mom and a dad. Today I’m going to tell their story all day long. Jordan and Andre Anchondo should be alive and well. Shame shame SHAME on this nation, on Donald Trump, on the NRA, on conservatives and Republicans, and on all people who advance white supremacy and bigotry in this nation. – #regrann

The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has sealed a manufacturing and packaging warehouse where honey was  being  poorly and unhygienically packaged in  Nigeria’s federal capital city Abuja.

In a statement by Prof. Moji Adeyeye, NAFDAC’s Director-General, the action was based on information on social media which indicated that the product, produced in Durumi, Abuja was adulterated. “NAFDAC officials clamped down on the facility in Abuja where honey was being packaged. “We acted based on information (video) of honey purchased from a certain supermarket in Abuja, circulated on social media by a customer alleging that the product was adulterated. “The product was produced by Upon the Rock Church of God, Durumi, Abuja,’’ Adeyeye said.

She said that tests on the product, which was initially registered with NAFDAC, confirmed that the product had become unwholesome and unfit for consumption and for that reason, had his licensed revoked.

Despite the fact that NAFDAC registers business, it also revokes it if the business mangers is trying to deceive the general public and poison them for his own personal greed. We know Sars and EFCC are constantly on the look out for the indivisuals who are acting suspicious on social media, but who would have thought that NAFDAC equally looks out for these things on social media.

I’m social on pressed with them for going after this factory. Ladies and gentlemen, you can now freely report poisonous foods making rounds in the society. Good to know NAFDAC… 👏👏👏

I thought it was a pile of rodents at first sight of the movie dungeon, but this becomes clear as you stare on. It is just disgusting to the max to realise that it’s simply a moving pile of trash.

You cant even see the water pulling it, because everything is covered with disgustingly rotten dirt.

The aquaMan actor  shared the video while seeking help from organizations and individuals who can help out in anyway that could help him tackle the menace..

Even though This is nothing compare to what we have here in Nigeria, but watching this video, I can tell it is equally intense over there.

TRUE LIFE STORY

We live in a very trying and perilous times. A very dear friends undergraduate’s 17yr old son got drowned at the Dome hotel pool in abuja last weekend. He was in the company of his friends. The friends didn’t report to the hotel mgt what happened nor to the deceased’s (Emmanuel Balogun) parents. They went back to the school (Uni Abuja) hostel immediately after the incident.

On Monday a young girl from uni abuja called the mother of the deceased that they did not see Emmanuel her son in class. She went further to tell the parents it’s like something has happened to Emma and ended the call.

The mother called back the line but it was switched off. She notified her husband & they immediately placed a call to their sons number and it was off. They drove that Monday night to their sons hostel but met his absence.

They now got information that a party was thrown for fresh year students over the weekend at the Dome hotel in town. They set forth for the hotel. The hotel mgt told them there was a case of drowning in their hotel over the when’d & directed them to the police.

The police now led them to the mortuary, lo & behold it was their son. Yesterday morning, myself & the deceased uncle went to the police to see the CCTV footage of what transpired @ the hotel. What I saw and later heard yesterday was unbelievable.

From the CCTV, we noticed the deceased entered the pool with 3 of his friends and around 3.33am he started struggling in the pool. His friends where all watching him until he stopped struggling and drowned.

They all left the pool immediately and one took his handset the other took his trouser and brought out the money inside the pocket and wore his shoes. They left the hotel around 4.18am according to the footage we saw.

The police went to the school & effected the arrest of the trio and mgt of the hotel. At the DIG’s office yesterday afternoon, I heard something that has being giving me cold shivers all through yesterday and right now.

One of the boys said that he wanted to raise an alarm to save the boy but the other two boys asked him not to. That the deceased is always doing shakara because his father his rich.. – #obyorijiblog

Following the obvious developmemt in the Country, Nigerians are beginnig to notice the scarcity and expensive hike in the price of petrol even as Easter celebrations are drawing closer. Many are saying this is done in a bid to get more money from the product once scarcity is introduced.

Now the Department of Petroleum Resources is sweeping in to remedy the situation. They are going from one station to the order to punish the dubious acts developing between the Petroleum distributors in Nigeria.

The Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), has sealed up some fuel stations in Abeokuta metropolis for hoarding, creating artificial scarcity and under dispensing of products.

Leading the exercise in Abeokuta, the state capital, the head of operations in the Ogun office of the Department of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Muinat Bello -Zagi admonished consumers to avoid panic buying and hoarding of products at home, as she also frowned at the diversion of products by marketers.
