PressMyButton: This is why it is great to be educated. The people you are pitying and the name of the group you posted, are they the same thing? Even if the past generation failed, let's not do the same and prioritize the education of our children so they will not be blinded in plain sight. |

Take it as motivation! Being that you earn that low, you must have felt attacked, and that's fine. The value of yourself is not defined by the 50k you earn or some random person's opinion of it. To survive in Nigeria is not child's play, but so far, you're surviving. You're not responsible for tanking the economy. Just focus on what you can control. If you want to grow your income, you need to start small; save 5k every month, or get rid of certain expenses. Is it easy to request a salary increase? Can you add another job to your current hustle? Can you skill up on YouTube? Can any small side hustle fit into your schedule? Talk to people around you; any sure programme that pays, get the gist, and sign up ASAP. Make friends with those who lift you up. See the toxic opinion in that post, push it far, far away from your mind. Success is about character and growth, not just money, and not marriage! Picture yourself in a year; in 5-years; take a step at a time and work towards it. Celebrate every win, and look towards the next goal. You'll get there. You're a survivor. The economy may not get any better, but you're tough enough to have survived so far. Here's to more growth 🥂 27 Likes 7 Shares |

And here are the facts and inferences after analysing the information before us: 1. Quadri’s Age: Fact: The family provided a specific birth date (September 29, 2007), making Quadri 17 years old as of April 2025. The police’s claim of him being 18 lacks ing evidence. Inference: Quadri is likely a minor, and the police may have misrepresented his age to justify treating him as an adult, potentially violating legal protections for minors under Nigerian law. 2. Circumstances of Arrest: Fact: The family provided names (Lege and Baba Waris) and a motive (harassment over donations), while the police offered no specifics on the arrest process. Inference: Quadri’s arrest may have been orchestrated by the Area Boys, with the police complicit or negligent in ing the circumstances, suggesting a possible frame-up. 3. Evidence of Guilt: Fact: The DPP found no evidence linking Quadri to the alleged crimes, and the court discharged him. The police failed to address the lack of an identification parade. Inference: The police’s case against Quadri appears to be baseless, as corroborated by the DPP and court rulings. Their continued justification suggests an unwillingness to it fault. 4. Police Conduct: Fact: Quadri was detained for a week before remand, and the police ed him with unrelated adults, actions the family claims violate legal standards. Inference: The police likely breached constitutional and procedural laws in handling Quadri’s case, ing the family's accusation of lawlessness. 5. Motive and Context: Fact: Quadri’s viral moment with Peter Obi in 2023 led to donations, which the family says triggered harassment by Area Boys. The police did not address this context. Inference: The harassment over donations provides a credible motive for Quadri’s targeting, which the police may have ignored or exploited, potentially indicating corruption or collusion with the Area Boys. 2 Likes |

Here is an analysis of all the facts before us as presented by the Nigerian Police Force spokesman, and the family through their lawyer. 1. Age of Quadri Alabi: Police: Claimed Quadri is 18 years old, implying he can be treated as an adult in legal proceedings. Family: Asserted Quadri is 17 (born September 29, 2007), a minor, which raises concerns about the legality of his detention and treatment. Analysis: This discrepancy is significant because, under Nigerian law, minors are subject to different legal procedures (e.g., the Child Rights Act). If the family's claim is accurate, the police may have violated Quadri’s rights by treating him as an adult. 2. Circumstances of Arrest: Police: Stated Quadri was arrested following an investigation into a violent street clash on January 22, 2025, with evidence from witnesses and victims identifying him. Family: Claimed Quadri was abducted by Area Boys (Lege and Baba Waris) and handed over to the police, with no evidence of his involvement in the alleged crimes. The police failed to specify who arrested him or where. Analysis: The police’s lack of detail on the arrest process (who, where, and how) weakens their narrative, especially since the family provided specific names of the alleged abductors and a motive tied to prior harassment over donations. 3. Nature of the Incident: Police: Described a large-scale street fight involving rival youth groups, leading to property damage, injuries, and robbery, with Quadri identified as a perpetrator. Family: Denied Quadri’s involvement in any street fighting, robbery, or property damage, questioning the lack of an identification parade and the timing of the alleged crimes (10 PM). Analysis: The absence of an identification parade, as required by law, undermines the police’s claim of victim identification. The family's point about the timing (10 PM) suggests visibility issues that could affect identification accuracy, further casting doubt on the police’s evidence. 4. Legal Process and Outcome: Police: Stated Quadri was charged and remanded pending legal proceedings, emphasizing adherence to due process. Family: Highlighted that Quadri was detained for a week before remand, violating constitutional limits, and that the DPP’s legal advice cleared Quadri, leading to his discharge by the court. He criticized the police for doubling down despite this outcome. Analysis: The DPP’s exoneration and the court’s discharge strongly Effiong’s narrative of a wrongful arrest. The police’s continued defense, without addressing the DPP’s findings, suggests an attempt to save face rather than acknowledge potential misconduct. 5. Motive and Context: Police: Did not provide a motive for Quadri’s alleged actions, focusing solely on the incident and investigation. Family: Linked Quadri’s arrest to harassment by Area Boys since 2023, motivated by jealousy over donations Quadri received after his encounter with Peter Obi’s convoy. Analysis: The family's narrative provides a plausible motive for why Quadri might have been targeted, ed by a history of harassment. The police’s omission of this context suggests they may be ignoring underlying factors that led to Quadri’s arrest. 4 Likes |

Hotfreezing: Maintenance of runways does not begin and end with repaving, but let's shelve that for now. Are you aware that the most used runway at Murtala Muhammed Airport has been shut down for maintenance of varying ranges once every year for 4 years in a row now (2022, 2023, 2024, 2025)? Also, I'm not sure where you got your 15 - 20 years range from, but it was not from a realistic source. Repaving may be periodic, but no where near your range. But as shown in the example above, it is an ongoing activity. I'm sorry but you can't justify this negligence. You can only try; it will only fail before international standards. https://simpleflying.com/how-often-must-runways-be-repaved/ cc: AustineE1 2 Likes |

The speed with which the other parts of the corridor were executed and the speed at which the execution is happening right now are different, but, I am sure you’ll change the trajectory soon. I like Otti's subtle way of ing messages. No fights, but I see you.😎 |

Hotfreezing: Oga, you still avoided the question. You started talking about railway, Oregon road, another airport entirely, and whatnots. Are airport tarmacs not supposed to be maintained every 10 years? For reference, it's been over 10 years since Stella Oduah left the position of Minister of Aviation, and this upgrade did not happen in her final moments. Tagging the OP in case you decide to respond this time. cc: AustineE1 2 Likes |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLbKSeXrX0k It was just another sunny day in April, at least, so it began for Mercy Uche, a Police Officer tasked with keeping the traffic flowing on a busy road in Warri. The street was busy, car horns blaring as they moved on both lanes, people weaving through traffic, and right in the middle of it all, Mercy stood, doing her thing; directing traffic with focus and grace. https://x.com/ChuksEricE/status/1912838293269471635 17 Likes 2 Shares |

Copy and Paste merchants who never want anything good for Abians can rest now. Also, those foolish boys will understand why it is Alleluia boys making defamatory statements against Peter Obi, never Obiano himself. At the end of the day, Obiano never said he didn't recieve what he did from Peter Obi. He never said Peter Obi left the state in a bad/poor state. Even his fellow governors have spoken of how Obiano told them Peter Obi left huge money. All these were statements of Political Alleluia boys. Obiano never said any of such false information about the state of Anambra Finances he inherited from Peter Obi. |
