Rome wasn't built in a day. The decay of years to years can't be fixed in a year. Moreover no one ever solves a problem by basically using fire brigade approach. a snail might be slow but it always gets to its destination before nightfall. , . .. I love my country & will always respect my president.

I am equally patriotic but my friend, Jonathan wasn't Nigeria's problem, it has just taken few months to prove same. You know we don't equally expect to be disappointed? I am yet to see one electoral promise effected.

Ever imagined a political setting without strong opposition to keep the ruling party on their feet? I laugh

The era of political prostitution resumes..

So?

I dont listen to Nigerian music

chiefmidwife:
So you want the nurses to kill themselves..hw much is government paying them
Even if the woman was saved by nurses tomorrow she will say it is Doctors
Nigerians don't respect nurses even if they kill themselves

Going by your alias I felt you might have something relevant to contribute or at least pick a worthy defence for your dare devil colleagues rather you toed the path of idiosyncratic analogy of whom deserves what glory.

I understand you watch people die everyday and it's become norm in your line of profession but do not get on social media to make a mess of a few worthy people left in this line of profession.

This statement of yours alone would get your licences & certificate stripped even upto your FSLC and have you detained in a psychiatric ward. What nonsense!

Have you ever wondered if you arent a misfit?

RIP to the dead.

On one occasion I accompanied a dying accident victim to a hospital around shitta (not Randle) which has its annex somewhere along Ikeja, on that day it took us tearing the place down in fury to really get the rather non-chalant nurses on their feet.

One got three slaps in rapid succession and could not help but scream, "I would get the doctor now.. hold on oga, I'm somebody's wife..The doctor is here, he is here"

This was one time they changed their positon concerning the whereabouts of the doctor after having spent 41 minutes pleading to see same. We lost one of the victims during this plea for attention.

People walk the streets unemployed while the employed ones fail at their responsibilities, they were not set to take responsibilities and therefore should voluntarily resign and make way for enthusiastic personnel.

It's saddening to know how many people loose their loved ones to trivial comments like, police report, doctor no dey, we don't have light, no bed space, we can't handle this here (for God's sake why would you still open shop the next day and live to earn the months wages at its end?).

This points in one direction, as a people we need to have a rethink on what we actually need any government to do for us. Not lauding projects as if they were doing us a favour, it's taxpayers money for common sake! Private hospitals should either form a merger or be dissolved.

I think customer service should be the focal point of these institutions.

Icecomrade:
My interest is not in your disagreement about the source of the bomb.

I am more interested in the failure of world power to curb a Terrorist group called ISIS yet berate our efforts in dealing with Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria.

They hate to see us succeed without their help.
They are quick to stir up their amnesty international group to accuse us of human right violations.

ISIS can do whatever they want with you, I don't care!!!

Kudos to GEJ on his efforts on Insurgency.
Kudos to PMB on his efforts on insurgency.
Long live the Nigerian Army.

I guess the person u dated must have been uneducated. Educated man should have known that you're an actress hence, such things are bound to happen. Forgive him for his ignorant

I'm yet to find sense in all this, what is your point exactly?

Hehehe people are now waking to the ugly truth, the Northerners are the untouchables, the southerners are set on self destruct by the very education they acquired with their own hard earned resources.

While we are here soliciting for them by building the alma jiri schools the bunch of elites over there are seriously berserk as to what culminated into GEJ thinking their people need emancipation.

It couldn't have felt any worse for an average northerner whom have known no other system but oligarchy to prefer your make-believe democracy.

They clench tight fisted on their solid minerals, lay bold claim on your oils, lay siege of vast arable portion of land, hold firmly onto power and can even tell some "sophisticated" elders to keep shut on their own soil.

You think they are fools to let a penny drop onto the other side right?

Afam4eva:
One of the reasons why I don’t support groups such as MASSOB or IPOB is not because I don’t think Igbos or any group for that matter have the right for self-determination. My only worry is the mode through which this is carried out. The truth is that the Biafran dream will remain a pipe dream if the initiators go about it the way they are currently. Apart from the fact that they are not going about it the right way by appealing to those that matter in Igboland and taking their case to the United Nations (UN), the most embarrassing disposition that they have created is one of forcing people who have not given their consent to be included in the Biafran agenda.

The fact that most of the areas known as the Niger Delta were naturally part of the old eastern region and as such were naturally part of the Biafran agitation in the 60s does not mean the same thing holds today. The divide and rule tactics has worked and anybody that can’t see it needs to go for an eye checkup. I’m tired of this whole “We are not Igbo, we are Edo”, “Our ancestors ate Igbo yam and that is why we are Igbo” or the opposing views that portray such desperate disposition that could be mistaken as Hitler’s intended conquering of Europe.

Igbos should fight for their rights and their only. Let’s stop this “SS and SE” BS. This people have oil for Bleep sake. Leave them the heck alone. They don’t want to have anything to do with you. I wonder why you can’t see that. They probably hate you more than the Hausas and the Yorubas that you see as your arch rivals. You have nothing to offer them, so leave them the heck alone.

In my mind, I even think it will make more sense for Igbos to align with other major groups and not minorities. These minorities don’t care about you. They see you as a land grabber. It doesn’t matter whether their names are the same as yours, their mode of thinking and vision is different, so it will serve you well if you focus on your SE affairs and stop romancing people that don’t want to be romanced.

If you are really passionate about getting Biafra whether or not it comes with oil or seaport then you must present your Biafran case as the SE alone. Don’t even include the Asaba area, atleast for now. Present your case as the war ravaged SE that no one can benefit from and the powers that be may change their kind and give it to you. But as long as you keep romancing oil, those Abuja people will not mind being Niger Delta’s father Christmas by sending gun wielding soldiers to teach you a bitter lesson for the second time. A word is enough for the wise.

It's not Friday and you drunk already? You must be having a large quantity of that good ish.. but watch it.

But why? Why release them?

Ohhh I remember elections have been won, Ezekwesilli renumerated accordingly and a bunch of power tasty demons satisfied. I think it's time the government showed the world they are working. Carry on!

Ryabcool:
you are missing the point. Northerners never wished for a centralised government at first. Every region depended on its resources and there was development in all three though varied. If Aguiyi hadn't introduced a central government, the eastern region would have had a 50% controlling interest(as with all regions that had their indigent resources) when oil was discovered on a massive scale in the Niger Delta. But due to greed for absolute power and short sightedness, Aguiyi went ahead and claimed all state owned assets and resources as exclusively the federal preserve. Now fast forward a few years when oil was discovered, the Northerners who saw the free and easy money from oil grew to like and fully utilise the central system of government. More or less, the cat was shown the easy way to catch an unlimited supply of fish in the stream, so you can't blame the Northerners if they are unwilling to let go of such free money. Blame Aguiyi Bro, not the Northerners.

Thanks, this is an educating piece. I now happen to see this issue in another dimension.

Mlaide:
.When was the last time you see with your doctor? If igbo contribute immensely to. Lagos. why not go home and replicate the same thing... . Mumu oshi

Ode! Move the ports from Lagos and see if one igbo man remains in your heaven. Mind you for political purposes the NPA in PH is "arguably" moribund. This is the the Atikus play with Intel to divert major port activities to Lagos.

Perhaps you have forgotten so soon that Lagos received inhabitants after its naming as the Federal capital coupled with the advantages of it being a port, so I expect the Bwaris and other Abuja locals to rant to your yoruba brothers in times to come.

Lazy ass

IGBOSON1:
^^^Bros, some on here would sooner have their dicks (or tiits) chopped off than agree to your suggestion in bold!

I totally see your point.

rhymaster:
N
No one is pacifying Ibos, if you want to go just go already but we will have nothing to do with you afterwards. You will be completely surrounded by Nigeria and we will send you away from every last inch of our country. Ibos want Biafra but crying to stay in Nigeria, confused lot.

It will benefit you more to read my comments carefully next time. All I see is your judgemental inference drawn from a juxtaposed and biased mindset.

Ryabcool:
stop trying to twist history. Aguiyi Ironsi was the one who introduced a Unitary System of Government, the Northerners were too afraid to try that until that guy showed it could be done. So blame it all on him.

Dear Historian, J. T Aguiyi Ironsi didn't fight the 1966/67 "One Nigeria" war. The all so important Nigeria which is apparently the north should have let go at that point if it was meaningless to keep a bunch of "non-entities" as non igbos now claim.

wristbangle:
Stupid statement

If u want to leave lagos and increase your village revenue, kindly do ASAP. U guys are not the only one in lagos. Silly tribal bigot.

#Say NO to tribalism#

Seen.. I hoped you would mention me with something more constructive. My bad, I overestimated you.

Niyinficient:
It's normal if d host is disrespected bt nepotism if d host disrespects. So thoughtful of u bros. Am not a fan of taking side with any tribe base on any outburst bt I think u shud try to be objective and logical yet rational in ur analysis of issues. I quoted u base on ur reference to Ondo state,

I would refrain from spiteful use of words if I were you trying to object to an already "irrational" statement, I would also pretend not to have any knowledge about this tribalistic onslaught ongoing, virtually and in reality to justify your position. But you do.

My brother every tribe is equally suited, non above the other. This is not an outburst

MeandSum:
are you freaking kidding me? you "see the foot prints of the igbo merchants in Lagos, Kano and Kaduna"... why is their footprint not visible in the east for f4ck sake? you guys would never learn to face the truth... never!

What truth?

If this election like make em run run so tey e pass Usain bolt, it will always breast the PDP tapes. Quote me anywhere! #Rivers state is not an APC state at least not in this dispensation.

I see the foot prints of the igbo merchants in Lagos, Kano and Kaduna. Let's even look at Ondo which is heated with south-western nepotism at the moment and fiery hate for the igbos.

I would kindly suggest we have a rethink if we must survive this union called Nigeria. Someone rightly noted the poor spate of the Northern contribution to our purse and yet they yearn for a centralised government even with the endowment of solid minerals. Is the case to deplete the south and enrich the North?

I swear Gowon knew exactly what would become of the contraption, Nigeria if they had let go, his current statement "With Biafra, it is finished!" would not have revealed any better why he exerted extreme efforts to destroy the Biafran struggle.

I think at this point the Nigerian agenda should be pacifying the igbos to remain in Nigeria through whatever means.

I believe we are yet to see the big picture behind the Rivers, Akwa Ibom & Bayeslsa power tussles, if Lagos didn't permit influence of PDP at the center, they had their reasons. I am not a partisan to any political party, but I do wish to state that Rivers state cannot be handed over the APC, even the dead knows this.

Irrespective of what your stand is about my comment, I would like to insist that as a citizen I suggest the current government should shift focus to developing other mineral resources, repatriate loots of its cronies in the past and rebuild industries in other states (Solid minerals are currently monopolised by known families) and decentralising power.

What I think PMB must have forgotten is that having INEC at his beck and call can't suffice to reelection in the current day awareness.

As for Rivers state, those people are not foolish, they will certainly pick any other party over APC. Remember the incumbent was an APC stalwart even before the elections.

And you'll sit tight and watch your children and their own children pay taxes to the Yoruba, get flogged by the Yoruba, get deported to the bia-gully-fra in large numbers by the Yoruba, get their 2 by 2 stalls locked up by the Yoruba, kiss their presidential ambition goodbye, re-count how their biafra warriors were murdered in large numbers by the 'coward' Yoruba - shall I go on?

Cretinous b.itch.

Make una come see this id.0t o

Yea go on till you lucky and probably come up with something more meaningful or until your psychiatrist arrives.

Delusion out of emotion is a problem for Igbo.

And the richest man in Africa's investment is all over the SW.

And cretinous elements like you are rushing to the west clogging up the Alabas, the Ladipos and the Oyingbos.

And your richest ever, Ojukwu's investment was in the SWest.

And the first point of call of investments for foreign companies is the SWest

Yet, the North and East are much more viable.

Yibhoes, in the face of obvious facts, let emotions drive their thoughts.

Sir, you're one sick cnu.t

You will be needing to see a psychiatrist sooner than you thought. Something is amiss and I do hope you figure it out as soon as possible in order to seek relevant help.

Like I mentioned earlier in other threads, sit tight and watch your children and their own children pay rent to the "Yibhoes" in your own veery remote locality. For now, rant all you may

Er0ticAngela:
I hereby enjoin all the governors of Niger, Kogi, Kwara, Plataeu, Benue, Nassarawa including Abuja, to deport all the Heeebos therein.

Deport the Heeebos. Chase the Heeebos away. Send the Heeebos back to Biafra.

And someone some where is hoping you are worth the pains of raising you? SMH
Your father would have rather done a handjob buy a cat instead investing such energy and resource on you.
Your case is unique

sukkot:
i never understand the need for a leader or a boss when in a foreign land. i role solo. every foreign land i have been i role solo. only weaklings need leaders

Say something meaningful my brother, there are Yoruba communities in Port Harcourt as well. I remember the Auto repairer I normally had to visit represents his community as their leader in Port Harcourt. And when I say Auto repairer this man is skilled and living comfortably too and this does not mean that their aren't quite a number of his subjects whom society detests. I remembered we paid homage to another one in Delta state during the politicking eras of 2011. These guys are recognized in their "alien" communities, so stop acting like we do not know about the existence of such activity groups.

Sequel to this notice"Please don't make racist and tribalistic comments on this section" and the wanton replies found on many other threads, I think Seun is a big Joke. Please tell us the role of Nairaland in Nation building as the above instruction is flouted on regular basis with no caution whatsoever.

Meanwhile, I think my Yoruba friends on here should understand that no tribe has any sort of privilege over the others and as such should learn also that if there had been reprisal attacks someone would have lost a dear one. Recognized or not, every social unit has a head it is only tribalistic to denounce such knowledge.

I see the only crime he committed was walking into the Deji's Fortress with a crown on his head proclaiming to be the leader of a section of people who prior to this altercation were entirely subject to his ruling. Of course, the fulcanizers down the street got themselves a boss too why on earth would their freedom to associate and right to groups be denied?

This list is biased if the likes of flavor n'abania and Inyanya do not make the countdown

Hehe eligible ke? If dem eligible I think their claims would be the unavailability of a miss right abi? Truth be told, such claims are unfounded, these dudes are no where near eligible and they are being led to think that marriage is just a quick way to kill their relevance on lips of gossips and bloggers inks.


STOP SCRATCHING DEAD TALES, IF EM READY WE GO KNOW.

ELIGIBLE FIRE!!

I didn't have to think about it. But I realized the system missed Raba by DJ Shabsy ft Kiss Daniels etc
