greggng: IS A SHAME THAT FASHOLAS KIND GESTURE IS NOW BEING POLITICIZE BY THOSE THAT MEANT EVIL FOR THIS NATION. I AM AN IGBO MAN AND I SEE NOTHING WRONG IN WHAT FASHOLA DID.THE CHALLENGE IS ON IGBO PEOPLE TO BE THEIR BROTHERS KEEPERS.WE ARE SELF CENTERED PEOPLE AND ONLY CARE ABOUT OURSELVES.

IF THOSE DEPORTEES ARE IGBOS, LET THE GOVERNOR OF THEIR STATES ACCEPT THEM AND MAKE THERE LIFE'S MORE MEANINGFUL. I DONT SUPPORT EVIL IF AM IN FASHOLAS SHOES I WILL DO SAME.I MUST COMMEND HIM FOR TAKEN CARE OF THEM .THE BALL IS NOW IN THE COURT OF THEIR STATES GOVERNORS/RELATIVES.

FINALLY, WE SHOULD AS A PEOPLE FIGHT FOR THINGS THAT WILL BE BENEFICIAL TO THE MASSES.THINGS LIKE SOCIAL BENEFIT THAT COULD TAKE CARE OF THE UNEMPLOYED AND SOCIAL MISCREANTS.IF THE LAW GUARANTEES THIS, THEN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS WILL BE A THING OF THE PAST.THIS WAY FASHOLA WILL HAVE LOTS OF MONEY TO TAKE CARE OF THEM KNOWING FULLY WELL THAT THE FEDERAL GOVT WILL ALWAYS MAKE PROVISION FOR IT.THIS IS MY OPINION

Dreal1247: Mr Ngige, ps better go and nationalize as a Yoruba. I used to respect u but u av proved to be a true politician who can betray, sacrifice, harm, kill, or do any form of harm to a brother in order to gain position. Now u see no wrong in a state govt dumping ur brothers and sisters @ 4.00 am. And you expect the govt officials to be there waiting @ 4.00am cos govt has become a midnight business.. What of the ones from other states? Why not take then to their states? Dont even think of coming to Anambra state for any form of campaign because you are a betrayer.

manny4life:

This is where I faulted "The Retardeen", before waiting for it to be tested, e should have used executive authority on this Fashola dude, it's he Fashola that will cry out to the courts. Fashola did not respect principles of the law, no deference to our Constitution, where is the social and ethical validity?

Ji_sun_pack: [size=38pt]Why are these bigoted ibos not shouting when Obi deported beggars? [/size]

Afam4eva: Now, the issue has moved from whether it's constitutional to drive Nigerians out of a state to whether or not Fashola communicated with Peter Obi about the action. Whether or not he did does not take away the fact that it's immoral to deport a citizen of a country within the country. I don't care whether Anambra or Akwa-Ibom has done it previously. It is wrong. Every state government should cater for the Nigerians they find in their abode. Afterall, states are given allocations based on their population and other variables. If the government were to give allocations based on state of origin then Lagos will probably receive the smallest allocation. let our leaders be wise and not take actions that will heat up the already heated polity.

naptu2:

Read the first post. Chris Ngige has supplied a letter that was written by the Anambra State Government in which they stated the venue where they wanted the hand over to take place. He even attached the letter to his letter to Aka Ikenga.

Be patient, let's hear what Aka Ikenga will say when they meet Fashola (I hope they will not be labelled traitors).

iheneme: The more Fashola and his supporters try to defend this degrading deportation they more they make themselves stupid. Until he also deports all other destitutes (as he calls them) from other states of the country, I will never believe this regrettable incident is not borne out of ill-will. Except Fashola and his cohorts want to tell us that all the destitutes in Lagos are Igbos.

fredopayee: Those guys was offloaded rround 4am eye witnes said. I wonder how the 2 partied agreed on this. If they agreed, do you think Anambra State Govt and other Igbo dignitaries will speak againt it Think Ngige Think.

donchris999: Nkita rikwa nne gi elu there! Ara gbagbukwe nna gi there! Ibi dakwa gi! Amadioha piapukwa gi isi there! Looking at your signature it is clear that you are not igbo. How can you write such a rubbish against your tribe(adopted) and put achebe's name as a quote from him. Your comments agains the igbo tribe from thread to thread only shows how cowardly you and your yoruba brothers are! Anuofia. Now go and use your real monicker because am 100percent sure that you are eggheaders as people have been insinuating here! Biko use your real monicker and stop being a coward, abi, you dey fear tomakint ni? Amu gi zakwa there! Ara chawa pu gi isi. Amadioha gbupu gi aka ahu iji ede rubbish nile ina ede na nairaland!

[size=14pt]If you are truly an Igbo man, lets hope one of your brothers is not among those who reportedly died in detention under the magnanimity of Fashola![/size]

PointB:

Like I said, stick to posting pictures.

Any policy/scheme that encourages dumping of human beings by 3.00am at some head bridge is barbaric, ill-thought, and inhuman. IF the Anambra State Governmnent indeed agreed to receive them, logic dictates it can NEVER be by 3.00 am in the dead of the night. If that was the agreed time, common sense dictates that they wait or try to contact the Anambra official, it's a matter of phone call. Dumping there there like waste is barbaric, and no policy of a self respecting government will support that. And no self respecting individual will support this barbarism; I doubt Akwa Ibom Government dumped Lagos State indigene at Ore by 3.00am in the name of repatriation. So much for your knowledge of the dumping policy!

LBT: what if lagos has documents properly signed by both parties to back it up.

Obiagelli: Perfect response from a true leader, God bless you ngige

All this bandwagoning by uniformed few is just shameful.

Question is have anyone interviewed any of the returnee, have anyone found out what their conditions were in Lagos before they were reunited?

Have lagos state not been returning hausa beggers to the not?

Haven't the Eastern states been re moving fulani migrants from their states



Did the federal government not return igbo from abuja some months ago?

LBT: what if lagos has documents properly signed by both parties to back it up.

delors:
What detention camp? Are you so dumb? Where is the camp? let the detainees come out and tell us their ordeals in the so-called detention camp. Why are you so embarrassingly unreasonable. How can a democratic govt, led by a lawyer (SAN for that matter) and in a civil society where civil orgs that are vibrant abound? Stop this useless propaganda and open your eyes to the truth. If I had an insane in my family who wandered away (say to the east), then taken by (say Anambra govt), sent to a rehab centre or psych home, rehabilitated and sent back to the family in Lagos, wouldnt that be a commendable thing? wouldnt the family be so happy to have him back? Bunch of propagandists

Demswear4u?:
I wonder.
why haven't fashola deported those yoruba touts and beggars at oshodi?
Most of them are not from lagos.

Obiagelli:
Another NNO officer, Google my signature and see who made the statement, if you are true igbo then you would take CHINUA's advice.

Useless people trying to spoil NDIGBO's true identity as a well mannered people. You are disgrace to your ancestors.

iheneme: The more Fashola and his supporters try to defend this degrading deportation they more they make themselves stupid. Until he also deports all other destitutes (as he calls them) from other states of the country, I will never believe this regrettable incident is not borne out of ill-will.

Demswear4u?:
That Naptu of a guy is a tribalist.
He just hides it under the cloack of hypocritical sincereity and neutrality.

naptu2:

If, if, if = you don't know. You are just guessing.

agbameta:


What about the Northern folks they relocated? Are the Northerners crying?

What about the Yoruba folks he deported? Are their governors crying?

What about the folks from Lagos Akwa Ibom deported back to Lagos? Did Fashola cry like a baby? No he did not cry.


You people see evil where it doesn't exist...
