QuotaSystem:
This OP is clearly obsessed with the North .

Two days ago he asked what plan the North had for Nigeria (assuming it had none), by the time he was provided with a bulletproof roadmap to progress (despite failing to acknowledge the failures that southern leadership recorded in the 14 years it was in power since 1999), he ran away from the thread without acknowledging the roadmap, only to cough up this new one.

To confirm his prejudice, he has now asked northerners not to mention Aliko Dangote who is Nigerias gift to the black race and one of its biggest exports and sources of pride - a Fulani entrepreneur par excellence and richest black man alive, greatest industrialist in Africa that develops countries with solid infrastructure instead of powdered drugs. His insistence on excluding Dangote clearly proves that he is not genuinely curious but just seeks an avenue to bash the north in order to air out his frustration.

Even though we have inventors like Jelani Aliyu (Chevrolet Volt electric car), world leaders like Amina Mohammed (Dep. UN Secretary General), the world renowned colourful Hausa architecture among others, indulging the OP further will only reinforce his bigoted tendency to open another senseless prejudiced thread on his crazed obsession - the great people of northern Nigeria.

Purehuman:


Did anyone ask you to mention igbo achievement. The reason why igbos are insulted is not more than this. Stay on topic and not deviate.

Seriously, we have variant humans on earth.

Alikote:
Former Minister of Health, Prof A.B.C. Nwosu, has described Igbos as lazy thinkers, who are acting strangely ahead of the 2019 general elections.

According to him, Igbo were thinking that by merely supporting President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019, they will automatically become President in 2023.

Speaking with Daily Sun, Nwosu maintained that it would be difficult for an Igboman to emerge as President in 2023, because, “The Igbo are acting very strangely on 2019.

“They are some lazy thinkers, who think that if you let the present order continue, and after four years, you just go and pick it because it is your turn.

“It won’t happen that way. If the Igbo are not aggressive about who becomes president in 2019, and aggressive that they are in the centre of power, and they are represented in the centre of power, how can power where they are not represented be handed over to them in 2023?

“What if the power where they are not represented hands it over to another person? Then you see the persons again drag out their knives and matchetes and go into the local markets and start shouting, Enyimba Enyi.

“This is the time to struggle to be part of the presidency. They will either be the vice president completely and be represented in all national structures of power.”

This attack wasnt nessesary. Many posters also demanded to know Igbos international achievements. Dont always want to put people down because u are angry

Purehuman:


Please try and ignore. Let the northerners face themselves and let's leave them to argue please. Everyday you guys will be pushing igbos to always defend our tribe online because of all these.

I am sorry to attack you.

remedick:
I will not do what you have done by posting the ills of your people, at least, QuotaSystem, Furr and others didn't descend so low as we understand that crimes are resultants of BAD leadership, which falls on both sides of the divides.

Are you aware that there is a country in the world that has closed down its prison yard due to reduced crime in the country?

If you had a functional brain Alikote, you should have known that we will never end list of crimes if I decide to start posting the cannibalistic traits of your people, include live beheading in the name of Allah, the god you worship.

This the problem of the North, you can't handle criticism of any kind. Trust me, even in 1000 years to come, there will not be much changes in the North because of your mindset, worldview to events of the world.

Unknown to you who do almost everything based on religious views, Saudi Arabia, the Origin of Islam, has started making changes in their land and giving women more voice. But you who borrowed this same doctorine hasn't change. This also goes to my Christian brothers... Isreal, the origin of Christianity is country of military might and do not resort to prayers when threatened.

This thread should have been somewhat, like China would have handled it, to get your people to work hard and prove the world that you also have something to offer. But you have resorted to mudslinging lol.

Unlike you, I can accept the weakness of the South, I can agree that agriculture and food processing is in the hands of the NORTH.

Groundnuts--North,
Rice--North,
Yams--Mainly North
Tomatoes and Pepper--North
Groundnuts--North
Groundnut oil--North
Ginger---North
Onions--North
Carrots---North
Sesame--North
Beans--North
SOLAR electricity will be the NORTH IF only they can use it as well.


This is what is expected of any sane and learned human when confronted with criticism. This is what makes me different. You are the one hating... not me. I was just doing review of your weakness that may have been oblivious.

Agreed, nobody can do everything. Therefore, we all should appreciate our weakness and strengths. The problem lies in the hands of the elites who use religious and ethnic divides to deceive people.

Another sad scenario is the fact that the learned ones among you have REFUSED to help illiterates among you to advance their thinking... Imagine a learned Fulani still supporting nomadic roaming in 2018, just imagine, when ranching can be found Saudi Arabia

I am not here to discuss crime with you bro.

remedick:
That was why I was almost begging that they shouldn't get involved in earlier pages.

I tire, I swear.

Alikote:
finally i have reset ur brain to the right format to make u know that u have no moral justification to critic the north

Alikote:
Leave us to tackle our problem in the north...go and tackle tonnes of yours..we like our way of life we dont aspire to be european... we luv our nomadic culture as a distint group....and dont want to be europeans like south get this into your thick head ...put your energy on your people busy body

Purehuman:


When someone talks about igbos we are all affected and we try as much as possible to reset their mindset to the positive but some will just stay online and raise comments that will put igbos for public shaming.

Seriously, I am tired.

Jelani Aliyu didn't invent anything.
Please, stop the lies already, we have been here before.

Jelani Aliyu, hails from Sokoto State, Nigeria and is General Motors Lead Exterior Designer and the designer of the Chevy Volt. General Motors is the world’s largest automobile maker. The car has been described as an American Revolution and one of the hottest concepts in the design line.

Jelani was born in 1966 in Kaduna, to Alhaji Aliya Haidara and Sharifiya Hauwa’u Aliyu. The fifth of seven children, theirs is a very close-knit family. For him, it was an amazing experience growing up in Sokoto, surrounded by the rich culture of the people and the state and enjoying excellent access to the latest and international information.

From 1971 to 1978, he attended Capital School, Sokoto, an excellent school and this served as a very productive educational experience for him. In 1978, he gained admission into Federal Government College, Sokoto, from where he graduated in 1983 with an award as the best in Technical Drawing.

Jelani was privileged to meet and make many good friends from all parts of the country and beyond during this time. He had tremendous encouragement and mentoring from his family and friends and his creative art develop the ed. He drew a lot, designed his own cars, and even built scale models of them, complete with exteriors and interiors.

After FGC, he got admission into the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria to study Architecture, but soon discovered that curriculum did not support his future vision and plans.

After considering other institutions in Nigeria and their academic programmes, he concluded that only one of them had the study criteria that would support his future goals. The institution in which he chose to pursue his education was one he felt offered the best creative programmes and had experience that would give him the best foundation required to study Automobile Design abroad. That institution was the Birnin Kebbi Polytechnic. He was there from 1986 to 1988 and earned an associate degree in Architecture, with an award as Best All-Round Student. While there, he did some in depth research into home design and construction, looking into materials and structures that would be most compatible with our environment and climate; buildings that would stay cool in a hot environment with little, or no artificial electrical air conditioning. Upon graduation from the polytechnic, Jelani worked for a while at the Ministry of Works, Sokoto.

In 1990, Aliyu moved to Detroit, Michigan to enroll at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit under a Sokoto Schorlarship board sponsorship. Having always wanted to study Automobile Design, this was a dream come true and an absolutely fascinating experience. The course was very practical and emphasis was put on creativity and the development of new designs to provide solutions . He received his degree in automobile design in 1994.

In 1994 he began his career with the design staff of General Motors. He worked on the Buick Rendezvous and was the lead exterior designer of the Pontiac G6. He also worked on the Astra with General Motors’ Opel Division.

With his brilliant work on the design of the Chevrolet Volt, which was unveiled in 2007, Jelani Aliyu is considered by many to be the super star of the General Motors renaissance.

Then keep your cattles ONLY in the North, keep there as it is causing menace and nuisance in other places.

remedick:
It only means one thing: Either you do not understand the question or you are deliberately avoiding answering it.

In the last few months, everything proposed to help move this country forward has been rejected by the North. A people how hasn't conquered much at the international front/fore is same people rejecting ideas that can move the country forward AS IF they know better. Nah... not m done!

Alikote:
we are finding a way out ....not all nomad are nigerians they are pan west africa and stateless ...the north is 70 percent land mass of nigeria

medpren:


Why do you muslim enjoy using Christian names to deceive people? Are you guys that cowardly?

How is the presidency of the zoo that you kill people to gain an 'International achievement' you buffoon?

Your fulani masters have proven that all one need to be a presidiot in zoogeria, is to be crude, barbaric, daft, blood-thirsty, mor0nic and lack forsesight. Unfortunately Igbos will not be as daft as you are because they want the presidency. You live the most miserable life with diseases and poverty even after all the donkey year fula master have ruled. So why should we want that?

cjrane:
Northern Nigeria is only concerned with improving their cheating of everybody else.
There not a single project in the north today that was not built by Federal government which took the project away from other regions.Even all the agricultural dams were built there to give it agricultural advantage over the south. Then they send cows into the southern farms to destroy the little being done.

That is why Nigeria has been unworkable and backward. Northerners don't know how to share one country with everyone. They cannot live without cheating.
