Ogugua88, my sister run for your life when people tell you they love you but hate your people. I read where Rhino.5dm was rooting for you, I assume he now admires you (an Igbo woman) so much. Need I say how much he hates anything Igbo only to turn around and admire an Igbo woman? That should tell you something is not right with ur position. Anyway, its just my take and you don't have to take it seriously. One love sister.

^^^^You are so right about Rhino.5dm
He will be the first to kill Ogugua if He has the chance to.
He's cold-blooded.
Check his previous post.
Rhino is colded blooded and who laughs when an Igbo is killed.

Fellow Citizens,

Lets neglect comments of our beloved brothers and sisters from the east and south south- Their comments is a type of corruption in itself called nepotism - i.e. giving unmerited favour to your kinsman at ALL COST when he least deserves it. OBJ did not win election even in his ward in south west in 1999 but we delivered the west to Jonathan in 2011. We are civilized people without sentiment. We protested against some people called cabals to make sure Jonathan was confirmed acting president. No sentiment

Where was SS/SE when we protested against the CABALs who failed to make Jonathan the substantive acting president when Yar adua was sick? Did they join in the protest? No. Where were they when we protested against Abacha and IBB? Where were they when we protested against OBJ on fuel subsidy led by Oshiomole? Where were they when we protested against the annulment of June 12 election. Where were they when The Ganis, Kutis, Falanas, alfreds, faseuns, Adesanyas e.tc were laying their lives to make Our President beneficiary of the struggles he knows little about. The history of civil protest in Nigeria has also been without them because they are educationally disadvantage, they cannot protest for or against what they don't even understand.

Jonathan came to Lagos and danced before us like a beggar pleading for our votes, he danced to the same music we played at Gani-Fawehinmi park we trusted him and voted him, even OBJ did not get that kind of support. Now we did the same thing and people who now claim to be his brother are angry, Jona himself is angry. Why are you angry? What kind of people would call a fellow man Monkey? We understand the average psyche of anyone from the east, you got admitted to our universities with 5 ordinary passes because we recognised you are educational disadvantage and we don't expect much sense from you.

If you can relate well with your environment, you would agree that the protest was avoidable, if Our President (Not Ijaw or Ibo President) respect the constitution he swore to uphold. The National Assemble - Who were the representative of the people convened on an usual day -Sunday- and spoke with one voice that he should revert back to 65 Naira. But he declined. When the President violate the principle of democracy and disrespect the peoples reepresentatives he gets what he deserves-Peaceful protest.Respect is reciprocal.

Should a man who lives on the bank of the river wash his hand with spittle? - An Ibo Proverb
Should a man bite the finger that fed him? An Ibo Proverbs
Is it not greed that makes an hunter who killed an elephant to still want to hunt for rats on his way home?

While I agree that it is never right to Kill another man for any reason like the Boko-Haram sect, It is the act of oppression through military force like the ones deployed to forestall peaceful protest in Gani Fawehinmi Park that might have been responsible for the creation of such sect. Your sect in south south (Kidnappers) and SE (otokoto) was the result of similar neglect. Yar-Adua was responsible enough to listen to you, bring you out of the creeks and send you to school so that you behave like responsible people. Because he listened he even appointed - Jonathan as his running mate. Let Our President - Not Ijaw or SS or SE President listen to us and we would have a better Nigeria.

The only thing I'll add to this is stop being tribalistic and stop being unnecessarily proud.
For those of you who said Occupy Nigeria should protest the killings and Boko Haram. I don't know about other centres but in Abuja. They did (several placrds asked the govt. to check Boko Haram's killings I saw this with my own eyes). In fact the initiative of Muslims going to guard Christians started from a thread posted on the Occupy Nigeria page on facebook. And it was a Muslim who suggested it.

I say stop the tribalism because, More Northerners have died as a result of the attacks in Northern Nigeria than southerners. You're quick to assume the only Christians in the north are southerners. (That's not the case, we plenty for here).

I strongly suggest some of you come up north or at least ask those who have before making assumptions. We need more peace in this country than unnecessarily marginalization. If only, you'll open your eyes you'll see we all want the same things. Peace, Better living standards, Accountability from our government, Better schools and amenities for our Children.

the same things cause we all live in the same Nigeria.

Good comment. I might not be absolutely right as you sensibly observed. The point I seek to make clear on NL is that it is not about NEPOTISM. As you rightly observe some states did not protest because it is their right not to protest but they did not condemn others who did. All the post I have seen here on NL by people who claim to be from SE/SS shows some unfortunate disadvantage of improper education. I am ashame that people all over the world could be reading this. Those who protest and those who don't have their right to so do. But when some people begin to rain insult on others for protesting we need to enlighten them. I was born in the north schooled in the east and live today in the west. I have always seen every human being the same african or not, and love people including you.

These Yoruba activists disappeared when Obasanjo was in power only to come spew rubbish now. Am sure their Boko haram tactics is gettin slower in making nigeria ungovernable hence they opted for the protest.

I know Ogugua personally and she loves everything Igbo but just that activist part of her didnt make her understand d politics behind the protest, just like what happened to Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu.

Who said I don't understand? They think I'm goofy or naive because I choose to overcome the past and stand for a united Nigeria than cookie-cut tribes. That's why Nigeria is tattered. Igbos think they're the best. Yorubas think they're the best. Hausas think they're the best. Everyone with their personal agenda and hardly anyone caring about the nation as a whole.

I think Nigeria is the best. Goofy me. I don't mind being called goofy in this case. "Normal people" can continue to marginalize till pigs fly if they like. That's not how I was raised.
