His building his retirement benefit and people re giving him accolade..

The man is copying Tinubu, if u doubt this, come to Ajegunle in lagos, a model state school was built during his administration but go there today, it's now a private school registered under his wife's name..

This is just the one I know cous my mum was deployed there.

Secondly, with that beautiful edifice, is it the same bankrupt govt that will pay new teachers and maintain such edifice

Be wise...

Another liar spotted, of all the things available in Lagos for BAT and Remi to steal, na school wey dey Ajegunle a dirty slum and not even in Lekki or Ikoyi.

Mustack:
You must be a jerk. I wish gej got his hand to the second term ruling Nigeria, we will suffer more than what we are facing right now..

You think they don't know? they just can't stop mourning bear with them.

Adminisher:
To support a clueless and corrupt nonenitty?. The arms everywhere are a legacy of PDP 16 years in power if you blame Buhari for that you will die a moral coward.

PDP had local conflicts going in all George political zones in Nigeria. Every ethnic nationality had a militia.
One of the Western countries' support for Buhari was based on the fact that only him could disarm these militias. Jonathan was too confused, weak and corrupt

If you see the kinds of ammunitions they brought to my hood in the name power, you go weak.

bakynes:
When i said OPC will use voodo and charms against ND Militants some 2 weeks back one stupid Moderator banned me for two weeks some folks were calling me babalawo now the report is out. The truth is that no other tribe in Nigeria can match Yorubas in voodo.

The OPC are even prolonging the matter, all they needed is just to pay a visit to Soun of Ogbomoso to request for Oosa Apo.
This Apo is the reason Ogbomoso had produced all Are onakakanfo of Oyo empire except one.
Its on record that Ogbomoso had never lost a war, go and check history.
Apo fights Ogbomoso battles by unleashing millions of BEES on Ogbomosos enemies, a single sting is a kiss of death, let me stop here.
Owun ti a ba fi ju omode lo, a kii fi han. I pray we don't get to the stage of "eje ki a da INA fun won ya" a o fi han won, a o ni mu le won lowo ni.

AmuDimpka:
It's a big shame

Of course its a big shame, while Igbo women are contented to play sales girls for their husbands in 2x2 shop, Yoruba women would rather have her own business and be self independent.
Igbo girls have taken a peep into the future and see that the customs and tradition of their folks have no place for women, they saw Yoruba land as a place where WOMEN GET MOUTH, women been respected in Yoruba land since the days of female Ooni Luwo Gbagida.

Why should some Nigerians go to break the laws of other countries thereby putting other innocent Nigerians under negative spotlight and scrutiny?.
Baba should please stop begging the Indonesian government, drug money is worse than blood diamond anyone caught in the act of such business should be made to face the consequence of their actions.

Abagworo:
One cluster bomb can kill 20thousand if dropped at a market square.

Most of them don't even know what a cluster bomb is, my take in all these is that the NA should minimize the exposure of the innocent to these bombings in their operation.

JoeCutie:
In as much as I disagree with the modus operandi of the Buhari-led APC government (as regards the anti-corruption war) - mostly because many of them are very corrupt themselves - I still believe that these PDP topnotchers deserve what they are getting. The only thing I hate is the effect it's having on all of us, the 'ordinary' citizens.

PDP had destroyed Nigeria with their culture of 'sharing the money'. How can someone stand in court and narrate how he was instructed to share some ridiculous amount of money meant for arms deal among the PDP leaders? Under a watchful eye of a living, a sitting and an active President? I still try not to believe this. It is so unbelievable! It's all kinds of wrong. Abomination!

For 16 years, the PDP ruled this country with impunity! They did whatever they deemed fit, without qualms. They kept sharing this country's money among themselves, that the word 'share/sharing' became almost innate in them. Little wonder why, Patience Jonathan, during one of her theatrics on TV, cried out, "all these blood you are SHARING...", when in actual sense she meant 'SHEDDING'. Because 'sharing' (of money) had become the order of the day.

I'm not a fan of Buhari - unless, of course, he does the unbelievable and changes for good - but PDP? No way! Apart from his Northern-based appointments, the state of the economy of the nation and the fact that he works with some very corrupt officials while fighting corruption, Buhari and the APC is still better than this waste called the PDP. Their impunity crippled Nigeria! They should all be jailed for life! But then, the lives of the 'ordinary' Nigerians should be improved, as they've been the ones suffering these anomalies.

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Nigerians ain't seen nothing yet, what Nigerians are seen now is just a tip of an iceberg.
The world bank record revealed that over $400 billion was stolen from this country, if Buhari succeed in recovering a minimum of $100 billion and jail the few thieves he can catch in his tenure, i shall celebrate him.

SirJeffry:
Boko haram members live among residents in most northern states and have the military dropped bombs in those residential area? Everyone knows the answer.

Anyway, why am I even defending slaves who don't see anything wrong in their masters.

Don't cry more than the bereaved, you can't love me more than me.
Even if the militants are YORUBA people, as long as I AND THEM, did not agree that they should turn my environment into war zone, LET THE MILITARY FLUSH THEM ALL.
ENIKAN KI I JE AWA DE, nobody should fight for me without my consent, whoever do that will have himself or herself to blame.

@OP shove your tales by the moonlight down your own dirty throat, why should a CHRISTIAN STEAL? IS HIS GRACE NOT SUFFICIENT FOR US?.
A THIEF LIKE YOU COMING ON LINE TO SPEW BALDERDASH, WHAT DID THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT STEALING? GOD IS NOT MOCKED YOU KNOW.
Stop defending thieves, it is obvious that your long epistle is all about gathering support against the fight against corrupt enrichment of privileged / politicians at the expense of the ordinary Nigerians.
BURY YOUR HEAD IN SHAME, AGENT OF DARKNESS.

iflywithbuhari:
I wonder how you think that your lies can convince 140million Nigerians who are experiencing poor or average power supply. Stewpid is what stewpid does.

I know its a sad news for you but the truth is that, at my end here church street in Oshodi to be precise, light is like mtn everywhere you go. Even when nepa off the light, it takes maximum of 5 to 20 minutes to restore the light back.

SpecialAdviser:
As an Igbo boy who have travelled all around Nigeria, I am always pertubed when people call Yorubas cowrards on social media. Sometimes I really wonder what these class of people mean and to say the least, most times my Igbo brothers are quick to make this ascertion. What do you mean by saying that Yorubas a cowards? Please get your facts right before you hit your keyboard to type any rubbish.

Yorubas just like th igbos are accomodating, eduacted and industrious. No wonder why the two tribes have the most economically viable region in Nigeria. They reprensent what a 21st century region is suppose to look like. Accomodating people from all walks of life. The north with their violenec are very poor and economically non vialble. Is it what you call bravity? Violenece and poverty. I do not like the fact that Yorubas voted APC north to producce Buhari presidency which has continued to enslave Nigerians but that is a political mistake anybody can make. Do not forget that not all Yorubas voted PMB. I remebered a yoruba man who hated PMB very much before the election and would not like anybody to mention his name. Calling Yorubas cowrads is just a clinical mistake. Where is fela anikolapokuti from? What of Wole Soyinka? What of Gani Fawhemi? What of Fayose of today? These are great men who have spoken up when a matter of bravity is needed most.

So please let us appreciate ourselelves and stop these bashing in nairaland. For as long as these bad blood exist, the south will remain slaves to the north. The hausas enjoy the division and have continued to rubish Nigeria with their nepotic and religious aggression. Igbos and Yorubas marry themseleves most. They work together most in companies.So where is the hatred coming from?

A word is enough for the wise.

Wetin this one dey yern?, call us anything you like NA UNA GET UNA MOUTH.
Odua ni mi tokan tokan, I and my household shall be voting baba again come 2019 we are not the same and we can never be, no to EL CAPO REPUBLIC OF SOUTHERN NIGERIA.

wadetaw202:
I'm sure u will be one of the few that will still vote for him.

Wake up and smell your nemesis bro, people are not daft, they know their enemies so continue with your negative branding of baba, 2019 is just around the coner.

tempest02:
They should work on reviving or steel industry and not dwell on the euphoria of completing this railway project.

We should revamp our educational system to teach courses that are directly specialized in industrialization and technology. China gains it all from this project. They give loan, use the loan to buy their equipment and manpower, then spread the loan for years. win win for them.

I am sure when signing the contract way back, we were not wise enough to include a clause to enable local content at the long run and technology transfer.

God bless you, these are what people should be asking for, especialy the steel rolling mill.
If baba can fix the steel rolling mill then our economic problem will be half solved.

otokx:
Most Nigerians like illegal things, banks in Uniport have ample parking space, even if it was full, opposite the Banks being the sports courts has a lot of parking space.

With all the space above you see Nigerians parking on the road and inhibiting traffic with the excuse of I will not stay long.

We need sanity in this country, Eko ni baje

Don't mind them the worst culprits are those who lived in one room but have three worthless pangolo which they called cars, which are of course parked on the streets to cause more traffic jams as usual.

joeyfire:
I know OPC was largely [b]denigrated as a PDP tool and suppressed before the 2015 election[/b]s.

Suppressed? i won't even be surprised if those forming Ijaw are actually some redundant OPC members.
You need to see how OPC sold their birth rights for few shekels before that election, they organized themselves dressed in OPC attires, OPC flags in one hand PDP flag on the other hand.
Disrupting traffic right from toll gate into the Ikorodu road, tearing Buhari / Oshinbajo posters, shooting into air and threatening everybody on that road.
The madness continues into other areas in Lagos state, and people begins to wonder IF NA BY FORCE TO VOTE PDP?
So everybody kept quiet and smiled at them, people know they are working for the money and everyone in my hood were like let them enjoy themselves, THEY PUT US UNDER SIEGE AND STILL EXPECT US TO VOTE FOR THEM, in fact majority who don't usually vote begins to go to the local government offices to collect their PVCs so as to vote against pdp, OYOMESI simple, OPC is one of the reason pdp lost in Lagos, IT WAS A SHOW OF SHAME.

Aigbofa:
How many Ekenedili Chukwu buses landed in Lagos today? And you still don't want to have anything to do with them?
What if you want to have something to do with them? Your entire village will be on their way to Yorubaland?

Easy bro.

[quote author=Allann post=47718482]Ok. Tinubu and Obj sold SW out, to who and for how much? The issue with ur type is this rigid believe about ethnicity/tribalism. In reality, politics is about calculations and negotiations. The lack of tact in handling these two was the simple reason why GEJ lost in the last election, and some people still crying of marginalisation.
The only reason why most people were against gej conference was because it was too close to the end of his administration which could frustrate the implementation.[/quote

And they picked their friends and cohorts to represent us as if we are some mugu.]

AMEN, any other prayer you might wana add?.
May God manage your life and that of your children the way Jonathan had managed this country.

ElekeNtioba:
this is exactly why nobody takes you serious anymore. The writer talks about SPEAKING OUT against injustice and u are equating it with violence to fit ur sophisticated persona.

Ur pple insult Fayose daily, weakened Afenifere, denigrated OPC, eroded ur common sense all because of ur love for Buhari.

If u like tatoo "SOPHISTICATED" on you forehead, it wont change ur slave status.

N.B: i see u mentioned u havent lost a war before. Care to explain how Ilorin (capital of d Oyo Empire) ended up an emirate of d Sokoto caliphate?? Was it a gift??

See i don't give a bleep about Igbo history but since you are obsessed with Yoruba history, Ilorin is not the capital of Oyo empire, the capital of the empire is still the modern day Oyo town.
Ilorin is the home of the blacksmiths who made farm tools and war equipments like spears, there was a succession crisis in Oyo empire during that period and for your information, an ordinary mercenary in the name of Ogunmola and his boys, not even Oyo army chased the Fulanis back from Oshogbo and fought them back to Ilorin, they only left them at Ilorin as a way of purnishing Afonja's descendants, google is your friend.

Dpharisee:
So you have finally 'dashed' Ilorin to the Fulani because a Yoruba Afonja betrayed Yorubas like Tinubu and his cohorts are doing today with their silence on matters concerning Yoruba?

Mr revisionists,the last three emirs of Ilorin have Yoruba names, or are trying to ask for a CHRISTIAN EMIR IN ILORIN?.
The governor of Kwara state is Yoruba, majority of the commissioners are Yoruba folks, what is your obsession with Ilorin?, it is people like you who go about inciting others to take up arms and fight meaningless wars.
If Yoruba people in Ilorin are more interested in being delivered from Saraki hegemony than Fulanis, it is because they have weight than options and choose Fulani.
The Fulani are into cattle rearing while Yoruba are in charge of the state so what exactly ARE YOU CRYING ABOUT.

obailala:
There's nothing strange about this development. Everything in Nigeria is tied to politics, even issues which ordinarily should have nothing to do with politics are usually influenced by partisan sentiments.

The niger-delta activists all went dumb during the reign of GEJ, even though we all know GEJ did nothing for the region during his presidency. Similarly we had cases of policemen arresting, incarcerating and even killing massob members some years back under GEJ, but we never heard any uproar from anyone in the SE cos the politics in Abuja appeared to be favourable. Similarly there were countless number of fulani herdsmen strikes and clashes with communities in the middlebelt region and in some cases, in the upper parts of the SE; there was never an uproar against the government for the same obvious reasons not until May 29th 2015, and then we all remembered there was some menace in existence called fulani herdsmen.

Furthermore, during the time of GEJ, northern youths raised a lot of dust over even the most meaningless things, today worse things are happening but they've all gone cold and dumb. Can someone please imagine what would have happened had it been that the zaria shiite massacre happened under GEJ?... Hell would have been let lose and the northerners who are mainly sunnis would have remembered that even the shiites are still their brothers and sisters.

Now the SW which has always championed the cause of restructuring seems to have also gone mute, the reasons are obvious, its the abuja political sentiment.

In summary, the fact is that when people make a loud uproar against a perceived injustice, the driving force most times is usually politics; when the politics in Abuja appears to favour a group, the group tends to sheath their swords.

As y'all can see Yoruba is only doing what other tribes have been doing, so @op tell your folks to start championing the fight against injustice.
PLAY MEANINGFUL OPPOSITION AND STOP WAILING ABOUT WHY YORUBA NEEDS TO CONTINUE PLAYING OPPOSITION TO A GOVERNMENT THEY STAND IN THE RAIN TO INSTALL .

saintdennis:
Yorubas talking without thinking ; presidency 8years VP(1yr+ so far)
Igbos acting without thinking :0 presidency 0 vp.

Yoruba talking without thinking: delivered democracy back to naija

Igbos acting without thinking: have been struggling for independence since 1967

Yorubas talking without thinking: will NEVER wear an igbo man's dress to form familiarity

Igbos acting without thinking: have made asho ebi, fila and even yoruba language their signpost.

The day yorubas will decide enough is enough ehn... ya'll will be sent back across the niger.

Abeg no kill me with laughter .

Igbos are not grabbing any land. Pls tell the federal govt to use their veto power to develop eastern states first. It's this hate running through most of Nigerian blood that is responsible for the neglect in Igbo land. If u check properly inside Buhari's mind u will see hatred towards the Igbos and that reflects in his policies and actions. I can't use d wealth and sweat of Nigerians to develop an area and then turn around to chase them away. Igbos are the most peaceful and well travelled tribe in Nigeria. Many of u guys can't travel to ur various villages due to evil and backwardness of ur home. You love me I love u, u hate me I hate u. The times are evil one as to be careful with you guys. because if given d opportunity you guys will b ready to harm Igbos out of envy.

Like seriously? the development witnessed in the SW in the last 16 years was the effort of their governors, your governors and your elders were wining and dining with federal government in the last 16 years and you are saying this poo are you alright?.
You are the most traveled whats pursuing you people from your home land?, you need to see the remote areas where i have met your people in the north western part of this country.
You said everybody envies you, are you sure people are not tired of your lack of focus and direction?.

[quote author=zubbyman post=47659825]The South-East and South-South lawmakers have called on the Federal Government to review the ownership structure of oil wells in the country to allow for at least, 65 per cent ownership by the people of the Niger Delta region. The South- South and South-East states Houses of Assembly stated this when they rose from their inaugural joint session at the weekend in Owerri, Imo state.

The joint session had in attendance speakers and deputy speakers of Abia, Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Bayelsa, Rivers, Cross River, Delta, Ebonyi, Edo, Enugu and Imo states. They held that contrary to the present ownership structure where less than 10 percent of the oil blocks are owned by their people, the South-East and South-South people should possess at least 65 percent of the oil wells.

They stressed that this would facilitate rapid development of the region as the region’s development, according to them, is being hindered by the present payment mode of derivative oil funds.

kingzizzy:
This could be fake news. I see Palm trees in the picture so it's possible it could be Igbo land. But, there isn't any vigilante in Igbo land in sympathy with herdsmen who have been commiting untold attrocities. If this is Igbo land, then it could be just a case where some youths stole ( cow or otherwise) and the vigilante apprehended them. Igbos have no love for herdsmen.

Abeg go siddon, so with all the mouth wey una dey make for nairaland, una still dey fear Fulani cattle rearer.
Na only mouth and chest beating una get, it is indeed true that NO MATTER HOW MAD A DOG IS, IT STILL RECOGNIZE ITS OWNER.

It takes a determined and industrious people to leave their immediate environment and venture into a distant land and conquer it. A bunch of parasitic creatures would rather lazy around in their neighbourhood and depend on their parents for their survival. 

You can see the result in the number of street urchins and area boys being bred by the Yorubas in the name of 'sophistication'.

We live in a global village that's why you see the Igbos, Chinese, Lebanese, Indians, Americans and Italians journey to Lagos to conquer the Yorubaland.

Stop whining, weeping and wailing on every available media page at the mere mention of Biaf... or NK as if your means of livelihood is being deprived you.

If Yorubas believe in their capabilities and capacities as a tribe then make today, July 16, 2016, a turning point in your lives to stop disturbing Igbos with your senseless and endless whining, weeping and wailing on every available media page at the mere mention of Biaf... or NK as if your whole essence in life is being taken away from you.

Then channel your energies towards having a separate existence from Igbos. Many Igbos are ever willing to contribute their quotas to the speedy realisation of that quest. Igbos won't miss Yorubas at all.

Convey the message to every Yoruba person to steer clear of Igbo's quest for nationhood. Let's see if NL will from today begin to experience some relative peace from the incessant whinings against Igbo's quest for a separate existence from greedy, treasury looters cum murderous parasites.

It takes HUNGER and not resourcefulness to venture into the unknown, your movies has exposed your folks as those who cannot prosper in your region until they venture into other regions so what are you trying to prove?.

StOla:
How is he my master when I thrive in my own domain?

The foolish king in Ilorin was the one who trusted the foreign army of the Fulani and made them citizens of his Kingdom. They didn't need to capture the city, they simply took control.

Funny enough, even the descendants of the Fulani in Ilorin feel they must bear a Yoruba name to have a legitimacy to the city. Even the Emir Gambari has his own Yoruba name, the Belgores and the Sagayas have theirs also.

So even without the sword, the Fulanis had to embrace a part of Yoruba culture of Ilorin.
When the Yorubas are ready to exercise control of their own city, the Emir will cease to exist. For now, the shared religion binds them together.

Tell them bro dem no dey taya, dem sabi cry more than the injured.
