Otapiapia or Sniper 50 Naira can solve that problem for you once and for all.. grin


You still are yet to tell me why a persons inability to recite the National anthem properly is grounds enough to disqualify the person from the job of Ambassador. Tell me that before you drink the Sniper. grin

Obviously the joke was lost on you, but that's fine.

You may ignore that and tell me how a person's inability to properly recite the National Anthem affects their job description as an Ambassador.

Typical Igbo hypocrisy. When a Northerner could not recite the anthem earlier at this same screening, he was found unqualified by the Igbos who made a mockery of the North. When an Igbo could not, the anthem requirement became irrelevant to the same Igbos.

Only the Igbo is qualified by merit to hold every position available, any other tribe gets it by quota?

The 1st Republic comes to mind. Only Igbos everywhere using their position in the ruling government to help themselves to federal offices, even wailing about the Northern region not allowing them to dominate, when their own Eastern region gave nothing to anyone that wasn't from the region.

You have been condemned by the very standard you set. I'm sure many Igbos are embarrassed that this woman put their arrogant tribe to shame by failing to attain the standard for which they had already crucified the Northern nominee with much pleasure.

Egg on your face.

So you see what I saw... . Bunch of Hypocrites

I feel pain when I some bigotry statment wailing around here. I know its human, we must complain but the way some of us do it is appalling. Do we know the meaning and value of national anthem to a country and a people. The words are carefully chosen and written to pass a message. it is not any of 2 Face or Davido songs. It is required for any public office to know, understand and hold dear. What is he/she doing there if they do not know what our value system is built upon. No wonder they have no respect for the nation, it's people and fallen heros. check out the meaning online. For the fact that most of us does not know it does not make it right. In those days, that's the first thing you are thought when you can read and write after your first few years in primary school. In my opinion, i think we should be concerned more of what is right and wrong. That is what will build a nation. I understand our diversity but we can make correction on the path of right value system. Who says the rest of the advanced world is one tribe. but their value system is strong. we keep shouting hausa Ibo Yoruba, i ask, does the bad roads not led to accident and deaths of all of us, does the epilleptic power supply not affect us all, do we not go to the same market, does fuel scacity not affect us all. Let us think act and critizise wisely. Constructive critizisim will lead to greater tomorrow.

I wonder why amb nominee will fail a repeated interview question. When u are nominated, the first thing to learn is national anthem and pledge if don't know it. I'm disappointed our elites don't prepare for interview while they want the job seekers to read all the books for #20,000 job

Uduak2019:


You want Nigeria to grow with over 3 million Easterners murdered in cold blood during the civil war? Over 2 million children starved to death by Awolowo? Get out from my sight before I spit on you...hypocrite devoid of basic human conscience.


@UDUAK2019: Now what you are saying is another matter entirely....I have conscience ok. Right is right and wrong is wrong... now if you want to go back to history, lets start with Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu, the idiot that drew first blood by killing Sardauna, etc in front of his wife and kids someone that was trusted in the household over suspiscion that Ahmadu bello is corrupt only to discover that he was owing the bank, now the Ibo's in KD and Zaria that had everything going well for them instead of condeming the massacre, started jubilating and taunting the northerners with pics of Ahmadu bello and saying una "Alhaji don die" etc and that led to anger and killings of those ibos in the north, there were riots and in Nigeria, people are not held accountable so there was no justice and it continued. Ojukwu in tackling the issue and him been selfish saw that as an opportunity to be President. He refused the advice of so many, he was adamant and stubborn and refused to listen to ZIK etc and led his people to war and boasted that he will be the last man standing only to run away and left all to die. Uduak, Yes i agree, it was unfortunate what happened, it was avoidable. We need to move on from that...... the Ibo's need to accept Buhari as the President and Commander in Chief and BELIEVE IN ONE NIGERIA. Also, Buhari needs to understand that the Ibo's weather they voted for him or not are NIGERIANS and that they have equal share in all resources and that he needs to ensure that and balance all his appointments atht are currently pro-North. Yes we do have issues, look at my criticism of Emir Sanusi's birthday... I am Muslim and from Kogi ok, i am still appalled that a Mrs Bridget Agbahime, will spend over 30 years in Kano, and have Kano as her "HOME" and be killed on the streets and the perpetrators are not being sentenced to death yet, i am angry about it... and all the CAN bigotry, police initial bragadoo, the Gov's hapinness over the arrest of the main guy that raised the false alarm etc what has it led to? unless those perpetrators are sentenced to death, Mrs Bridget's family gets compensated and gets true justice, i will not rest in talking about it. In the same vein, an ambassadorial nominee that cannot recite the national anthem is a shame and you should not be defending it Uduak. Conclusively, Uduak, i have conscience and i believe in one nigeria where we all will succeed as one Nigeria with justice and equality for ALL.

She is obviously one of the most experienced candidates as it is. I believe she scaled every other aspect of the interview except the Anthem part. I still genuinely dont feel that alone should be a deal breaker.

How many Jews did Hitler kill? Has Germany stopped growing.

Germany has actually acknowledged the atrocities it committed under Nazi rule, including the extermination of over 6 million Jews. They have also apologised for their actions and have taken steps to repair the damage caused by the war and the events leading up to it. What exactly has Nigeria done to repair the damage caused by the war? Have they even done any of the things listed above? 90% of Nigeria's problems today is caused by the actions taken in the post-war period.

Remember, the biggest reason why Hitler was able to rise to power was due to the US, Britain and, mainly, France's poor handling of the post-war period after the First World War...

Germany's attack was evil and unjustified. Hitler was an evil maniac. Do you really want to compare the two situations? Afterall na una first start coup. The Jews did nothing. Can you say the same for Igbos?

You're the one that compared them in the first place. I only explained to you why it is inaccurate to compare post war Nazi Germany to Nigeria today.

Btw, no one is justifying Hitler's actions; I was just explaining to you that one of the reasons why Hitler was able to take power was because of the harsh conditions Germany faced at the end of the First World War.
