Mayor08: First of, Fashola abused Nigerians in their own country by telling them to go back to their villages. Secondly, he didn't rehabilitate the mentally sick after picking them up.Rather, he rounded them up ,drove them down to upper Iweka and dumped them under the bridge in the dead of the night. How is that similar to what Obiano is doing ? 65 Likes 7 Shares |

Mayor08: First of all , out of all the "deported" either one or two were from Anambra ,the rest were from Akwaibom,Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo. But, assuming you actually contacted Anambra state government and you didn't get a response you have no right nor power to move citizens of Nigeria to a random location and abandoned them there! You are supposed to actually find out were they are from and make concrete effort to reunite them with their families. And if you couldn't fetch a useful information you must keep them until you resolve the problem. 31 Likes 5 Shares |

Let Ambode or any Lagos governor try to ban hawking in traffic and see how hell will let loose. They'd start foaming in the mouth playing the victim's card. Anyways, this is a move in the right direction. Imbeciles, mentally unfit people and beggars should not be on our roads. I commend Obiano for this. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

I remember in 2013 the then governor of Niger state took this people off the street to a place like a Camp where they where been fed and taken care of medically these people complained and protested that he's (the governor) is trying to cut their source of lively hood they left and went back to the streets...funny enough this blind people begging have more than 2 wives and many kids and you wonder when civilization will really hit the north 6 Likes 2 Shares |

oilPUSSY: He is Igbo. An Anambra 'supremacist'. If you don't know him by now, then you're new to NL. As soon as i saw the thread, i knew he would show up with that comment. Dude is very sick. Suffers from serious inferiority complex. 6 Likes 1 Share |

koning:He's not Igbo. His mission on nairaland is to balkanise Igbo land which he cannever achieve because he will keep seeing opposite result offline.. Watch him out..., whenever isssue of SS Igbos is raised, he will be quick to tell you that they are not Igbos despite having so many people in SS like Oshimili,Asaba and Obigbo Axis who are always proud of their identity. He wants Igbo land to be Anambra, Enugu Abia and Imo which is not what it's . Forget his pro Igbo Igbo comments and his soft Insult on Yoruba, it's still his tactics.. I know two of his monikers Juliesmma and Reelectbuhari. He has abandoned his Reelectbuhari moniker and opened this one. Trust me, he's not Igbo. You should know the reason why he's claiming Anambra.. I am from Anambra state too.. We Anambrarians are not stupid .. That supremacist nonsense is just figment of some people's imagination He will be quick write Igbo language with Google traslatator, but when you start replying in Igbo language he Will run or start typing something that is out of context because Google can't help him out on that since every Igbo has their dialects.  .. You can try this and see what I am saying.He knows my moniker, he avoids engaging me in meaningful discussion. I know the person that bursted his Reelectbuhari Buhari's moniker before he abandoned that one.. Don't be deceived. I am not new on nairaland.. In fact, he once opened a thread and told Igbos to stop using the word "Yoruba Muslims" that yorubas are one..Check all his topics.. If an "Igbo Man" like him Said we should stop balkanizing Yorubas along religion line, Why is he balkanizing Igbos along State line if he's Igbo ? Check out all his thread, most of his threads are threads Igbos won't like to see on nairaland, . He's up to something and he knows what I am saying. Cc. Coning 21 Likes 1 Share |
