Mai Suya:

It seems as though a plague has hit NDers this evening. everyone is just flapping their mouth without due recourse to their brains. How many of you actually know what started the riots in the first place? Ignorant buffons

I just lost a dear friend in the senseless riots so SHUT UP. Ignorant cattle rearers who shld be citizens of Niger Republic.

Apparently you dont know what it is to not feel safe in your own country. Foolish pple.

don't you tinhk its time you withdraw your brain from its protracted recess, take time to find out what actually caused the riots in the first place, and see if it has anything to do with relgion as you dimwits have all being saying.

Jezz I'm getting too old for this. . .

Mai suya . . . i dont blame you. I'm glad i dont live in a country ruled by your illiterate leaders.
nigeria is a failed state and the north shld take the primary blame for it.

CAN asked a succint question in this sunday's Sun newspaper . . . if it was political why were political party premises left untouched and churches, clergy and christians killed? Where the votes counted in churches?

I'm not surprised, fools like you wont hesitate to brandish a knife crying allahu ached bar at the slightest "political" provocation.

Think up another excuse, this one is overused.

josboy
No it was about ethnicity you idiot. Why did the wait untill they were cheated out of the most lucrative LGA in Plateau.
You are a slowpoke. You are the person that would add fuel to the fire.

Who started the fire and was it legal to start it in the first place?

Dont waste more of your energy arguing senselessly, your brothers will explain well in a few days when Onitsha and Aba boys begin to receive the bodies of their beloved.

I hear all the thousands of abokis in Onitsha have fled to police barracks and the ones in Enugu have taken refuge at the 82 division.
I hope people don't harm them since they did nothing wrong.2 wrongs don't make a right

It is the easterners or those poor corpers that did something wrong?

Kweenisha:

I hear all the  thousands of abokis in Onitsha have fled to police barracks and the ones in Enugu have taken refuge at the 82 division.
I hope people don't harm them since they did nothing wrong.2 wrongs don't make a right

Thats your hope and i wish you well with that, but the hope of those onitsha boys seem to be quiet different from yours this time around. The moment the dead bodies begin to arrive the niger bridge, believe me; taking refuge even in government house wont make any difference.

JosBoy4Lif:

The were Yoruba Muslim well before they were Yoruba Christian, burp!

sisi what is this

wtf?

^^^
can you translate what you wrote there.  

The were Yoruba Muslim well before they were Yoruba Christian, burp!

i doubt this is true considering Yoruba had earlier contact with Muslims before the advent of samuel ajayi crowther and co.  religion/ethnicity are intertwined with politics in Nigeria so to say religion had nothing to do with this is bogus.

another question is how prepared is the Nigerian police to handle riots? i guess the question has been answered numerous times

yes religion definitely has a lot to do with this.

both political and religious mayhem.

YOU FOOLS AND BRAINLESS COWARDS!
SHOULD I SAY YOU ARE FOOLISHLY WICKED OR GREEDILY IDIOTS FOR TALKIN WITHOUT COMMON SENSE. Y WOULD YOU TALK ABOUT ONE NIGERIA WHEN THE IGBOS ARE BEEN USED AS SACRIFICIAL LAMBS TO BUILD THE WICKED COUNTRY THAT DOESNT NO HOW TO HUMANELY AND EQUALLY TREAT IGBO CITIZENS.

ONLY SUCKERS AND TOOZOS AS YOU, WITH NO SINGLE UNDERSTANDING AND PAIN EXPERIENCE WOULD CLAIM THE KILLINGS OF THE IGBOS IN JOS ARE POLITICAL. IF POLITICAL HOW COMES THE PROBLEM STARTED IN THE BREAKIN INTO OF THE IGBO MANS STORES, CARS AND HOMES WHEN YOU NEVER SAW THIS SAME IGBO MAN CAMPAIGN LET ALONE VOTE?

MUMU, IF THIS WAS POLITICAL, TELL ME WHEN THE IGBOS BECAME THE OLDER BROTHERS OF BEROMS TO SHADE THEM FROM FOOLISH ALUMANJIRI ATTACKS?

IF THE PROBLEM WAS POLITICAL Y DIDNT THE MUMU PEOPLE CHASE THEIR ENEMIES TO THEIR GHETTOES AND IN THEIR BRUKUTO JOINTS? DO THE BEROMS TRADE IN APATA OR IN KATAKO, IDIOTS WITH LESS THAN CHICKEN BRAINS.

SAME WAY IN 2001, THEY SAID IT WAS POLITICAL BUT HOW MANY BEROMS DIED? LESS THAN 2PER CENT OF MURDERED IGBOS.
IF THIS ONLINE AWARENESS SCARES YOU TO SHAKE LIKE THIS, PUT YOUR FILTHY FEETS INTO THE SHOES OF THE IGBOS.

YOU SHOULD NO THAT YOUR STICKIN MOUTHS ARE OPEN BECAUSE WE HAVENT REACTED YET, WHEN WE DO YOU WILL FLEE THE ENTIRE NIGERIA. REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED IN KANO? IF THE WORLD (EXLUDING YISREAL, GHANA AND GABON) COULDNT WIPE US IN THE "NIGERIA" CIVIL WAR, THEN THINK AGAIN.

WE ARE PEACE MAKERS, WE CONTINUE TO ALLOW YOU SOME TIME TO CHANGE.

more than ever how this guys were right

Gideon Orkar's Memorial Speech, April 1990

Fellow Nigerian citizens,

On behalf of the patriotic and well-meaning peoples of the Middle Belt and the southern parts of this country, I , Major Gideon Orka, wish to happily inform you of the successful ousting of the dictatorial, corrupt, drug baronish, evil man, deceitful, homo-sexually-centered, prodigalistic, un-patriotic administration of General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida. We have equally commenced their trials for unabated corruption, mismanagement of national economy, the murders of Dele Giwa, Major-General Mamman Vasta, with other officers as there was no attempted coup but mere intentions that were yet to materialize and other human rights violations. The National Guard already in its formative stage is disbanded with immediate effect. Decrees Number 2 and 46 are hereby abrogated. We wish to emphasis that this is not just another coup but a well conceived, planned and executed revolution for the marginalized, oppressed and enslaved peoples of the Middle Belt and the south with a view to freeing ourselves and children yet unborn from eternal slavery and colonization by a clique of this country.

Our history is replete with numerous and uncontrollable instances of callous and insensitive dominatory repressive intrigues by those who think it is their birthright to dominate till eternity the political and economic privileges of this great country to the exclusion of the people of the Middle Belt and the south. They have almost succeeded in subjugating the Middle Belt and making them voiceless and now extending same to the south. It is our unflinching belief that this quest for domination, oppression and marginalisation is against the wish of God and therefore, must be resisted with the vehemence. Anything that has a beginning must have an end. It will also suffice here to state that all Nigerians without skeleton in their cupboards need not to be afraid of this change. However, those with skeleton in their cupboards have all reasons to fear, because the time of reckoning has come. For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to state the three primary reasons why we have decided to oust the satanic Babangida administration. The reasons are as follows:

(a) To stop Babangida’s desire to cunningly, install himself as Nigeria’s life president at all costs and by so doing, retard the progress of this country for life. In order to be able to achieve this undesirable goals of his, he has evidently started destroying those groups and sections he perceived as being able to question his desires. Examples of groups already neutralised, pitched against one another or completely destroyed are:
The Political & Spiritual Purpose of the Holy Land

(1) The Sokoto caliphate by installing an unwanted Sultan to cause division within the hitherto strong Sokoto caliphate.
(2) The destruction of the peoples of Plateau State, especially the Lantang people, as a balancing force in the body politics of this country.
(3) The buying of the press by generous monetary favours and the usage of State Security Service, SSS, as a tool of terror.
(4) The intent to cow the students by the promulgation of the draconian decree Number 47.
(5) The cowing of the university teaching and non-teaching staff by an intended massive purge, using the 150 million dollar loan as the necessitating factor.
(6) Deliberately withholding funds to the armed forces to make them ineffective and also crowning his diabolical scheme through the intended retrenchment of more than half of the members of the armed forces. Other pointers that give credence to his desire to become a life president against the wishes of the people are:
(1) His appointment of himself as a minister of defense, his putting under his direct control the SSS, his deliberate manipulation of the transition programme, his introduction of inconceivable, unrealistic and impossible political options, his recent fraternisation with other African leaders that have installed themselves as life presidents and his dogged determination to create a secret force called the national guard, independent of the armed forces and the police which will be answerable to himself alone, both operationally and administratively. It is our strong view that this kind of dictatorial desire of Babangida is unacceptable to Nigerians of the 1990’s, and, therefore, must be resisted by all. Another major reason for the change is the need to stop intrigues, domination and internal colonisation of the Nigerian state by the so-called chosen few. This, in our view, has been and is still responsible for 90 percent of the problems of Nigerians. This indeed has been the major clog in our wheel of progress. This clique has an unabated penchant for domination and unrivalled fostering of mediocrity and outright detest for accountability, all put together have been our undoing as a nation. This will ever remain our threat if not checked immediately. It is strongly believed that without the intrigues perpetrated by this clique and misrule, Nigeria will have in all ways achieved developmental virtues comparable to those in Korea, Taiwan, Brazil, India, and even Japan. Evidence, therefore, this cancerous dominance has as a factor constituted by a major and unpardonable clog in the wheel of progress of the Nigerian state. (Sic) It is suffice to mention a few distasteful intrigues engineered by this group of Nigerians in recent past. These are:

(1) The shabby and dishonourable treatment meted on the longest serving Nigerian general in the person of General Domkat Bali, who in actual fact had given credibility to the Babangida administration.
(2) The wholesale hijacking of Babangida’s administration by the all powerful clique.
(3) The disgraceful and inexplicable removal of Commodore Ebitu Ukiwe, Professor Tam David-West, Mr. Aret Adams and so on from office.
(4) The now-pervasive and on-going retrenchment of Middle Belt and southerners from public offices and their instant replacement by the favoured class and their stooges.
(5) The deliberate disruption of the educational culture and retarding its place to suit the favoured class to the detriment of other educational minded parts of this country.
(6) The deliberate impoverishment of the peoples from the Middle Belt and the south, making them working ghosts and feeding on the formulae of 0-1-1- or 0-0-0 while the aristocratic class and their stooges are living in absolute affluence on a daily basis without working for it.
(7) Other countless examples of the exploitative, oppressive, dirty games of intrigues of its class, where people and stooges that can best be described by the fact that even though they contribute very little economically to the well being of Nigeria, they have over the years served and presided over the supposedly national wealth derived in the main from the Middle Belt and the southern part of this country, while the people from these parts of the country have been completely deprived from benefiting from the resources given to them by God.
( The third reason for the change is the need to lay a strong egalitarian foundation for the real democratic take off of the Nigerian state or states as they circumstances may dictate. In the light of all the above and in recognition of the negativeness of the aforementioned aristocratic factor, the overall progress of the Nigerian state a temporary decision to excise the following states namely, Sokoto, Borno, Katsina, Kano and Bauchi states from the Federal Republic of Nigeria comes into effect immediately until the following conditions are met.


Nigeria: Baby Dedication

The conditions to be met to necessitate the re-absorption of the aforementioned states are as following:
(a) To install the rightful heir to the Sultanate, Alhaji Maccido, who is the people’s choice.
(b) To send a delegation led by the real and recognised Sultan Alhaji Maccido to the federal government to vouch that the feudalistic and aristocratic quest for domination and operation will be a thing of the past and will never be practised in any part of the Nigeria state. By the same token, all citizens of the five states already mentioned are temporarily suspended from all public and private offices in Middle Belt and southern parts of this country until the mentioned conditions above are met.

They are also required to move back to their various states within one week from today. They will, however, be allowed to return and joint the Federal Republic of Nigeria when the stipulated conditions are met. In the same vein, all citizens of the Middle Belt and the south are required to come back to their various states pending when the so-called all-in-all Nigerians meet the conditions that will ensure a united Nigeria. A word is enough for the wise.

This exercise will not be complete without purging corrupt public officials and recovering their ill-gotten wealth, since the days of the oil boom till date. Even in these hard times, when Nigerians are dying from hunger, trekking many miles to work for lack of transportation, a few other Nigerians with complete impunity are living in unbelievable affluence both inside and outside the country.

We are extremely determined to recover all ill-gotten wealth back to the public treasury for the use of the masses of our people. You are all advised to remain calm as there is no cause for alarm. We are fully in control of the situation as directed by God. All airports, seaports and borders are closed forthwith. The former Armed Forces Ruling Council is now disbanded and replaced with National Ruling Council to be chaired by the head of state with other members being a civilian vice-head of state, service chiefs, inspector general of police, one representative each from NLC, NUJ, NBA, and NANS.

A curfew is hereby imposed from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. until further notice. All members of the armed forces and the police forces are hereby confined to their respective barracks. All unlawful and criminal acts by those attempting to cause chaos will be ruthlessly crushed. Be warned as we are prepared at all costs to defend the new order. All radio stations are hereby advised to hook on permanently to the national network programme until further notice.

Long live all true patriots of this great country of ours. May God and Allah through his bountiful mercies bless us all.

We both know the connotation that you people on this sight use aboki to mean so dont be "suyalicios"

RedHotChic:

What are you two abokis planning?. Aboki, you again?

Yes me again!

For real, I am beginning to wonder if the Human sacrifice we make to keep this country one is worth the stress.
For decades there have been mass slaughter in the North for NO justifiable reason. The leaders continue to tell us to take heart and stay united. The Xenophobia in south Africa was not this bad!.

The primary essence of our 70+ years in this world is NOT to be slaughtered for no good reason.
300 lives lost for nothing.

If Nigeria cannot be a country, then let every tribe break-up and form it's own country. There is no point for any life to be lost for any reason whatsoever

what 300 lives lost? if just 300 then that wouldnt be too disheartening as it is now but the truth is that when they said more than 300 murdered it connotes more than 3000 (excluding the NYSC guys') lives wasted as sacrifice to appease the demons of abokis
