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 Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Police command Imohimi Edgal,
Imohimi Edgal, the new CP uncovered new facts about Davido’s involvement in Caroline Danjuma lover’s death. His name is Tagbo.

What I don't get is why the Army is always on the streets when we are not in war or emergency. Even the police shouldn't be this intrusive. https://t.co/wyWGAvKYAe

The law's recognition and protection of individual dignity is the difference between the bus driver in London and the bus driver in Lagos.

3. Yemi Osinbajo
After the NNPC $26 billion naira blew up courtsey Ibe Kachikwu, the Vice President has confirmed a role he played with respect to Joint Venture loans for the corporation. Twitter assumes he’s laid down his life for his voice.
In response to media inquiries on NNPC joint venture financing, VP Osinbajo, as Ag President approved recommendations after due diligence…

…& adherence to established procedure. Action necessary to deal with huge backlog of unpaid cash calls which Buhari adm. inherited…

….and also to incentivize much needed fresh investments in the oil & gas sector

4. Demola Olarewaju
With these interesting turn of events, Demola points us back to culture.
Why all this cross statements?Baru said that @MBuhari approved the contracts now it is @ProfOsinbajo hmmmm! @APCNigeria we hail thee! https://t.co/RTiB6PDo1K

Sam Hart worries for the VP’s political survival.
Hope our Pastor Prof. SAN is able to come out of this administration intact. How many bullets can he take with his halo intact?

Prof Osinbajo took one for the team

Baru went to his office the day Kachikwu visited GMB. Osinbajo is in on the scam https://t.co/JIYv3HoMcw

If so much "loot" has been "recovered", why is Buhari requesting for a $5.5 billion loan?

5. Pius Adesanmi leaves us with a puzzle.
2019 War Chest Mathematics Exam
N640 billion contracts + shutting down Atiku's monopoly while nothing happens to Dangote's monopoly = ????

6. Sam Omatseye
Mr Omatseye thinks that this corruption scandal leads to one conclusion:
Buhari should speak. We now know the contracts happened when he was on leave. Impeachable offence
— Sam Omatseye (@samomatseye) October 12, 2017
@okekecc No need sir. The VP approved as Ag. President. His media aide has confirmed. Check Laolu Akande's handle

7. Ayo Sogunro
Lawyer and political commentator is of the opinion that it is hopeless to vote the two most popular political parties in the country.
Please, in 2019, don't vote PDP. Don't vote APC.
Just don't vote any party that has had a chance to rework Nigeria's structure but didn't.
— Ayo Sogunro (@ayosogunro) October 11, 2017
As usual, I'm not going to tell anyone who to vote for. But, if you're an adult Nigerian you should already know who/what not to vote for.
— Ayo Sogunro (@ayosogunro) October 11, 2017
Caveat: Talking of the federal level. Maybe in your local/state governments, APC or PDP is doing wonders. Good for you, then. Carry on.
