Today, I celebrate a god
Who rose to being a selfless
fellow: a soldier, general;
A leader, legend and god.
Your numerous contributions
To the development of the legal profession in particular, and
Nigeria in general. And this space?
You have deeply intellectualised
Our cyber space and continuously
Held the fort as a custodian of our
Collective and amazing consciousness
You're a priceless gift to humanity
You came in and filled so many
Huge voids - that is why you are
More than a legend.
If immortality, wisdom and knowledge
Had a face it will look like this 👇
Your service to mankind is selfless
And outstanding. Oh great Oracle!
No one approaches the Sanctum
Sanatorium with an empty hand:
Today, the sacrifices are heavy.
Your presence (here) has been
One of the greatest gifts to Tweeps
And humanity at large.
Your approach to law and life
Are precedential and phenomenal
No wonder Pa Richard Akinnola II
Constantly refers to you as
"World Mahud!"
Indeed, you are more than an Oracle!
Today is a great time to let you know
That you have changed my life
The world's life too, a great deal
In unbelievable way.
You touch multitudes of lives daily!
Your charisma is extraordinary.
I’m so glad God gifted you to humanity.
May you forever keep chalking larger than life accomplishments.
I am fortunate nay blessed to know someone as extraordinary as you.
Your imprint on me and the world will last forever.
Your success bears testament that life doesn’t bless you with what you wish for, but rather what you work for.
Oh great Oracle
Keeper of the mind's gate
Watcher of the Heart's grail
Happy sweet Birthday, sir.
There is something fundamentally wrong with @femigbaja's explanation on the shooting and killing of the Newspaper vendor, whose death was caused by the security operatives attached to him.
According to the Speaker, the gun was fired 'in the air' to disperse excited crowd.
Generally, a bullet, fired straight up at the maximum speed into the air, will never leave the lowest layer of Earth’s atmosphere. A combination of gravity and air resistance will slow it down until it reaches a maximum height, whereupon it will fall back down to Earth’s surface.
When it does, however, its landing location will be wildly unpredictable owing to the effects of wind and air. It will be traveling much slower than when it was first fired, as its terminal velocity (due to air resistance) is far lower than the initial muzzle speed.
People who post screenshots and/or chats of how their inbox were invaded (by the opposite sex) for whatsoever reason(s), are childish and senseless. I strongly believe they do so for clout: retweets, likes and replies.
Maturity should not be used as a licence to be stupid.
Whatever informs that genre of stupidity, some things are meant to remain private.
Learn to minimise what you share here.
Do not reduce Twitter to a dirty linen washing hub. Even if the narrative is less offensive, KEEP IT TO YOURSELF.
If the person that once acted and looked like King Solomon and Cleopatra, decides to behave Agbalumo, you simply walk away - noiselessly.
You don't need to host a festival of unsolicited violence on Twitter. Trust me, there will always be roaming idiots, fueling from the back.
SOUTHERN KADUNA PEOPLES UNION (SOKAPU)
PRESS STATEMENT 17TH October, 2020
The dastardly murder of the District Head of Mazaki, in Atyap Chiefdom, Zangon Kataf LGA, Mr Haruna Kuye and his teenage son, Destiny Kuye stands totally condemned.
It is an abhorable crime which aim is cause communal strife, and this our people must resist.
It was a well-planned murder by evil men who sneaked into the village and headed for his home and unleashed terror. The heartless killers also attacked his wife and daughter but
they survived with injuries.
The late District head was a man of peace who cared for the wellbeing of his constituency both natives and non-natives.
We hereby send our sincere condolence to his family, Atyap Chiefdom and the entire Southern Kaduna family over this great lose.
There is a limit to which I can allow you spew rubbish on my timeline. A certain worthless individual, poor knowledge of the law, with an over bloated ego, invaded one of my tweets, dishing out unrelated principles of law, unfounded rules of law, as justification for the
attempted demolition Lobito Crescent, Wuse, Abuja. He cited all manner of authorities. None of them applied to the fact in issue.
He went further to litter my timeline with a tweet from FCDAFCT. Sadly, the excuse given for the attempted demolition is not justified by law.
More painful is the fact is that, the whole reply from morning by that agent and sympathiser of Agbalumo were based on speculation of his own imagination. I tried to endure him since morning. I also accommodated his brazen idiocy.
Of a building with human beings in it. Let me not also mention that their goods worth millions of naira is also in it.
3. According to your Agbalumo link, the owner of the building flouted the FCDA Housing scheme. When he converted what was designed for 'car park' to a shop.
4. When it comes to Housing scheme in Abuja and the entire Federation, where does the Buck stop? Can you say that FCT and Agbalumo nonsense again?
5. Mind you, you are dealing with people's source of livelihood, hence the need for governance to have human face.
HYPOCRISY RECEIVING PROCEEDS VAT/ALLOCATION FROM THE SALE OF ALCOHOL BY THE KANO STATE GOVERNMENT
The Kano State Government in a dramatic show of shame and hypocrisy has destroyed liquid contents of alcohol (bear) worth 200 million naira, in a secular Nigeria.
Our take is that the act is retrogressive and, a direct hypocritical application of the letters and adherence of the hadith as we shall see. The dominant belief in Islam is that, not only is the consumption of alcohol in any of its forms forbidden,
BUT MUSLIMS SHOULD AVOID EVEN INDIRECT ASSOCIATION WITH ALCOHOL.
A well-known hadith attests that God has cursed ten different behaviors—not only the drinking of alcohol, but nine kinds of acts that facilitate the drinking of alcohol:
