Every day on the Nigerian internet, there are people who keep our eyes glued to our phone screens as we read their rants, opinions, perspectives on political and social matters, etc. Sometimes, they are just downright ridiculous. We make it our job to take down the names of these noisemakers.
Here’s our list from today:
1 While the debate rages over the proposed re-incarceration of Nnamdi Kanu, Cheta Nwanze (who can’t seem to stay away from Twitter politico after announcing his retirement) tells how to bring down IPOB:

2. Irene adds her two cents
I don't understand why after admitting that people have legit concerns, ?? want to beat them into "unity" instead of seeking means to help.
— HRH Adabekee? (@cremechic11) August 28, 2017
That's why this story of "our unity is non negotiable" is utter nonsense. Can't respond to dissent with ultimatums. E no work.

Na who see food chop dey yarn non negotiable. If food shows in the "secession camp" people can and will negotiate.

What's painful is that people aren't asking for anything out of the ordinary. They just want govt to fulfill its end of the social contract
— HRH Adabekee? (@cremechic11) August 28, 2017
Govt paying salaries & pensions as when due, education, healthcare, enabling economic conditions, these should be the NON NEGOTIABLES

3. Omojuwa
Diezani has once again stolen the spotlight with OurMumuDonDo protests calling for her extradition. Omojuwa thinks the action unwise.
Diezani is likely to get JUSTICE in the real sense in the U.K. than in Nigeria. At least no perpetual injunctions and adjournments.

Reactions:
Those calling for her repatriation are working for her.
— Onanuga Yomi (@yommyontop) August 28, 2017
They don't want real JUSTICE for Diezani.
They want her free, just like all the other Looters technically freed by our shambolic Judiciary https://t.co/R9ncovj5h9

I don't understand us.
During #ResumeOrResign you people said the focus should be on #BringBackDiezani.
Now you say she shouldn't come.— Callings (@CollinsUma) August 28, 2017
You can NEVER criticise govt correctly for those who have made up their minds to be sycophants. https://t.co/Jd4DZVP9Ip

7. Arsenal
Arsenal was soundly trounced by Liverpool 4-0 yesterday. Arsenal did not just take a beating in the stadium. Twitter has unleashed the best of its savage too.
