Tinubu Calls For New Thinking To Resolve Indigene/settler Question I am with Tinubu on this one, particularly the bolded text.

ndu_chucks: My friend, I am also with Tinubu on this BUT the issue with Nigeria is that it is not fair on other Mostly the minorities. Imagine this if the present governor of a state is not performing, people with primitive minds would immediatly relate it to his ethnicity. Even in Lagos a yoruba such as tinubu when through a lot just because he is a yoruba from Osun and not a Lagos. Not to talk of Kanuri or zuru. I hope you see what I mean. just already, take a look at Jos, Delta, rivers, Kogi, all these states are facing tribalism criticise. Why do you think the aniomas of delta want to form there own state ? I think we should just let things like this happen naturally instead of passing a law or removing it. I would not want someone from another ethnic group, do JJC and come to my state only for him to be developing his pocket instead of my state. Riot would happen |

My friend why do you always have BUTs with bold attempts at unity? You either want it or you don't. There are no buts about it. |

maybe tinubu has had her wife in mind when saying this.not sure t a orji will agree with him |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by aljharem3: 11:22pm On Nov 20, 2011 |
Onlytruth:Nwanne kedu!! I have to put "but" there because in an ideal society, what Tinubu stated should be the case NIGERIA IS NOT YET AN IDEA SOCIETY. well I gave a senario for ndu-chuks and I hope you read it as well |

That is how you people always put confusion in Nigeria and blame us for wanting out. It is like saying you are marrying your wife on a "BUT" basis. If she is smart, she would leave you with your BUT before you mess her up. Like I said, it is either you want unity -WARTS AND ALL- or you don't. Here I stand. |

Onlytruth: when a country is not mature to do something, why should u force it ? |

Two questions arise from your comment (1) When would that country mature? (2) Will it ever mature? That we are still asking these questions after 51 years justifies those of us who think that we are wasting each others' time. Why not everyone go his way NOW. Which sane human being would wait for infinity? |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by aljharem3: 12:12am On Nov 21, 2011 |
Onlytruth: 1. It would get mature when we spend more time with each other. Countries like Saudi, America, Britain etc even china were all hundred of years old. Impatient is what you are exhibiting here, which is VERY VERY UNDERSTANDABLE. You see Nigeria is a geographical expression that composes of different countires trying to form a country together. You do not force things to happen in this sort of expression. rather you give it time. If it was Hausa country, Kanuri Country, Yoruba country, Igbo country, Ijaw country etc It would have been a totally different case 2. Yes would get mature if it is give time. 51 Years is a short time, Very short and look at what we have achieved. Let me tell you something that you must have seen but have not taken notice. Minorities are been absorbed People are now speaking just 3 languages instead of 250 Most people have mixed ancestry ranging from Yoruba/igbo to hausa/igbo to Yoruba/hausa etc This sort of people give 100 years time would not know there culture so they would rather identify as Nigerians rather than Yoruba or hausa or igbo So right now that the majority is still "I am Ijaw" "I am nupe" etc then such would be difficult to foresee. Rather those with mix ancestry would called Nigerians. |

This is the same Tinubu whose houseboy, Fashola, deported fellow Nigerians from Lagos State, on his express orders Of course, he's only doing this because of the wahala he has found himself in with indigenous Lagosians, especially those in ACN, lately. Then there's the question of his wife. He conveniently forgot this issue of unity when he sent his wife and his dog in the senate, Ashafa, to question the eligibility of Roli George to hold a federal appointment on the Lagos slot. He also forgot the question of competence when he ordered the same people to roll over for the clearly incompetent Aganga at his confirmation hearing in the same senate a couple of months ago. This is the Aganga that couldn't balance the budget, gave us a budget with 74% recurrent expenditure. Yekini Amoda Ogunlere, aka Bola Tinubu is just trying to be clever by half, seeing as he wants to use Aganaga, who is clearly another of his moles in PDP, as one of his options for Lagos State governor in 2015. The other options are his wife and Hakeem Muri-Okunola. All are non Lagosians. In Aganga's case, he NEVER actually schooled or lived in Lagos. Was not even born here. Tinubu's statement is just self-serving hypocrisy. |

The same Tinubu who unleashed his army of area boys on hapless non-indigenes in Lagos and gave them full leeway to harass and extort the non-indigenes as reward for the area boys rigging elections for him all throughout his tenure? The Trade Fair complex markets were built within 2 years just so that the Igbo traders could escape the incessant harassment by Tinubu's foot soldiers at Balogun market. Many of the traders readily moved into uncompleted shops at Trade Fair just to escape from Tinubu's goons. The same Tinubu never saw anything wrong with the extortion and harassment of Igbo traders by his area boys but was instead making excuses and justifying their nefarious actions even as Oba Akiolu of Lagos was denouncing the area boys' antics and disassociating Lagos indigenes from their activities. Yeye dey smell! |

4llerbuntu: You must be a stark ignoramus who has not left the four walls of Yorubaland. A Yoruba was SUG president when I schooled in Nigeria and it was not in Yorubaland, A number of Yorubas have been commissioners or held all sorts of govt office in other parts of Nigeria in the past and possibly even now. And you lie that a non Yoruba has been chairman of an LGA in Yoruba land. Please provide the proof. Or bury your head in shame. Bloody liar. Who prevented Femi from owning business in Ariaria? Will they force you to own one? |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by Francis5: 4:35pm On Nov 21, 2011 |
4llerbuntu: Can you explain what all these Yorubas in Abia (watch video) are doing in Abia? Are they there just for the sake of being there or what? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgXVWJxqD2c&feature=related |

PeeDaVinci: Thank you my brother. It was part of his primary agenda, but we have the "I had no shoes". I really think things like this need to be clearly stated out in our constitution. |

What impresses me mostly about Shekarau's leadership prowess is his peaceful nature of governance as well as his belief in one Nigeria project. Imagine an Ibo Christian appointed by Shekarau administration as Special Adviser, including Yoruba and a minority person from the middle belt. I know what was obtained between 1999 and 2003 when most of the so called non indigenes were sacked from the state government establishment, which resulted in loss of Medical personnel. http://www.huhuonline.com/index.php?Itemid=379&catid=89:finance&id=2354:2011-in-support-of-governor-shekarau-for-president&option=com_content&view=article |

egift: So it is Mr President-I- had- no-shoes who is now to blame for the indigene/settler problem that has been with Nigeria since before independence? Na waoh!!! |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by egift(m): 6:04pm On Nov 21, 2011 |
Francis-1: So Mr Francis, what has the President done about it? Since the solution is long overdue. What has he done (or is) about it that should exonerate him? |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by Francis5: 6:32pm On Nov 21, 2011 |
egift: Whose role is it to pass laws? The president or the parliament? I did not know that in Nigeria a democratic president can wake up and abrogate part of the constitution (your insinuation, not mine). And BTW, as a citizen, why do you not send a private bill to abrogate the settler/indigene problem? Yeah! Let's blame everything on GEJ, the shoeless president. SMH |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by BCuZiMBlaCk(m): 7:09pm On Nov 21, 2011 |
Francis-1:parliament do pass the law. The President is only a reprsentative of the nation(people) |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by Francis5: 7:15pm On Nov 21, 2011 |
BCuZiMBlaCk: We are on the same page. I was asking those blaming the president. |

Buhari/Bakare Manifesto indeed . . . Bunch of eediots . . . |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by samstradam: 7:44pm On Nov 21, 2011 |
Francis-1:Yes you must be right, he has no business with law making in this country- thats why when he won his reelection and Jos was burning and BH massacring innocent non-indigenes, his first course of action was to publically send a bill for term elongation straight to the house of assembly. Just keep on trying to warp reality. |
Re: Tinubu Asks For New Ideas To Solve The Indigene/Settler Challenge by Francis5: 7:49pm On Nov 21, 2011 |
samstradam: May be you need to attend a Govt 101 class. If he can make/pass the law/bill you cited above, he would not have sent it to the National Assembly (NA) but would have passed it himself. You have as much right as the president to send any bill on what pleases you to the NA, whose role it is to pass or not pass it into law. DUH. |
