Adebowale89:



then people like ffk, fayose should fall in line with your universal statements since you don't know how to make use of words



as far as politics is concern there are still APC politicians in Igbo land, why leave them and criticize Yoruba this Yoruba that


y'all hypocrites even your ebonyi state governor is still dining with APC despite he was a PDP governor


I won't join issues with you and for the record, I'm not Igbo. How the so-called educated tribe believes anyone who doesn't support an extremely incompetent regime is Igbo beats my imagination and simultaneously erodes the firm notion of your alleged education and enlightenment.



FFk and Peter Fayose you made mentioned of, so you are unaware of the abuses they receive everyday from their people for simply speaking their minds?

Your duty as a sane person is to teach and make the "igbos" that hate you so much bcuz you supported buhari in 2015 to see that hatred is not good for their health instead of trying to retaliate and becoming equally insane and a liability to mankind.

You can't fight with a pig and complain of being dirty, its just not possible.

I am not Igbo I am omoluwabi and a sane one for that matter.


you impostor won't cease to amaze me. omoluabi is what u spell omoluwabi



to make it clear to u, I'm not here to impress anyone. so your cry cry like a baby won't make your brain to return from vacation

military officers aiding fulani,by providing fighter jet in numan adamawa ,Taraba and benue, there can also disarmed the community before the fulani carry the attack,police are also contributing there own quarter eg if farmers are being attacked they won't be there to,but can declare Deno wanted because of the truth he spoke,
we need more of retired military officers to out to voice out the minds regards the current security situation in the country.

Funny how a perceived yoruba boy is finding it hard with spelling...all I did was to break it down for you "Omo + ti + Olu-iwa + bi" so if you are used to spelling omoluabi as a short form now you know where and how it originated.

You can enroll for Yoruba class for tutorial before coming on Nairaland to embarrass your parent.

Just incase you missed it...here it is again;

"An omoluabi is a person of honor who believes in hard work, respects the rights of others, and gives to the community in deeds and in action. Above all, an omoluabi is a person of integrity. The Omoluabi concept is an adjectival Yoruba phrase, which has the words - "Omo + ti + Olu-iwa + bi" as its components".

Next time when you see the word "omoluwabi" know that it is also making reference to omoluabi but more elaborate.

So, always ask your parent about the origin of words and their meaning in Yoruba so as not to embarrass them and yourself in public.

If dem ask you shey you bi yoruba boy you self go raise hand...what a pity, shior.

One mistake I found with the military throughout my career is that all of us believe our loyalty is to the Commander-in-Chief and not to Nigeria whereas the Commander-in-Chief himself is supposed to be loyal to Nigeria.[color=#000099][/color]

11Ebisco:
Col. Gabriel Adetunji Ajayi (retd.), an erstwhile colonel administration and Quarter-Master General of the Lagos Garrison, has identified the biggest problem with the Nigerian military.

Ajayi spoke to TheSun against the backdrop of recent allegation of complicity against the military by a former Minister of Defense, Lt. Gen. Theophilus Danjuma (retd.).

He said Danjuma, a former chief of army staff, had asked them to disobey him if he told them to do anything unethical during their training at the Nigerian Military School in 1978.

The ex-Defence minister recently caused an uproar when he accused the military of complicity in the killings and destruction of properties going on in some states allegedly by Fulani herdsmen.

Asked what he makes of the allegation and the call on the people to defend themselves, Ajayi said, “By the pedigree of General Danjuma, he holds the reputation of a no-nonsense man.

“He was my Chief of Army Staff. I remember vividly in 1978, he visited us while we were on a course at the Nigerian Military School of Infantry.

“And he forthrightly told us that if he, as our Chief of Army Staff asked us to do anything unethical that we should disobey him.

“So he is a very forthright person. He is not a frivolous man; he would not speak without having concrete proof and evidence. I don’t like the way Nigerian military have been behaving for quite some time now and I am not happy about it.

“They react to certain things that need not to react to. If the military is owned by Nigeria and Nigerians are complaining about certain things, all they need to do is not to defend themselves but to look at those things and carry out amendments where necessary.

“One mistake I found with the military throughout my career is that all of us believe our loyalty is to the Commander-in-Chief and not to Nigeria whereas the Commander-in-Chief himself is supposed to be loyal to Nigeria.
Hide quoted text

“The military must see itself as an agent of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and acts as such. They are not to defend themselves. The constitution is made for Nigeria; Nigeria is not made for the constitution.

“If you are saying you want to carry out your constitutional responsibility you must know that the nation is above the constitution. The nation can afford to throw away the constitution and make another one but the constitution cannot afford to do away with the nation.

“So if people of Danjuma’s pedigree are saying something as serious as that, it is not for the military to immediately reply and begin to debunk the claims.

“What they need to do is for them to look inwards and see what has gone wrong. If a former Chief of Army Staff could turn round to say his boys are partial, it is like a father telling his children that they are not doing the right thing, Danjuma is a father to the military.

“I don’t think he can be frivolous in his statement. All we need to do is to examine what he has said, see where we have gone wrong and make the necessary amendments.

“It is very unfortunate for the military to start saying that they are impartial when many senior federal government officials have said that the herdsmen are from Chad, Niger, which means they are violators of national integrity so the question of being neutral and handling them with kids ‘glove does not arise except something is hidden somewhere.

“But as far as I am concerned, I don’t like our institutions to react to criticism the way they do rather they should look into those criticisms.”

Why would you write like this. How would your readers know who Ajayi is. Begin by introducing him in p1. Also tell whether he is a serving or retired colonel
Col Gabriel Adetunji Ajayi, has revealed the biggest problem with the military.

Ajayi spoke with Sun while reacting to the recent allegation of complicity against the military by a former Minister of Defense, Lt. Gen. Theophilus Danjuma.

He said Danjuma had asked them to disobey him
If he asked them to do anything unethical during their training at the Nigerian Military School in 1978.

The ex-Defence Minister caused an uproar last week when he accused the military of complicity in the killings and destruction of properties going on in some states allegedly by Fulani herdsmen.

Asked what he makes of the allegation and the call on the people to defend themselves, Col. Ajayi said

If both Danjuma both said these things from their hearts, then maybe, only maybe there's still hope for this contraption, sorry country Nigeria.
