Nigeria is not ready/developed enough, The governors will turn to tyrants and warlords by using them against any possible opposition...

Blue3k:
Nigeria doesn't have power to demand prisoners back. Countries do facilitate prisoner transfers but death row inmates are off the table. I doubt Saudi Arabia will comply. Nigeria is yet to convict those alleged drug syndicate members .

Saudi will have to release if she is certainly innocent of which I believe she is

Shocking Question..
Who signed the 1914 Amalgamation ?
Nnamdi Azikiwe was born in 1904(was 10years old
when the
1914 treaty was signed)
Obafemi Awolowo was born in 1909(was 5years
old when the
1914 treaty was signed)
Abubakar Tafawa Balewa was born in 1912(was
2years old
before it was signed)
Ahmadu Bello was born in 1910(was 4years old
before it was
signed)
Michael Okpara was born in 1920(the treaty has
been signed
6years before he was born)
Who and who signed these papers on 1914 and
called it
amalgamation of the Northern Region and Southern
Region,
that we shall live together as one family without
War,
Marginalization, Conflict of interest and crisis?
These Nationalists I mentioned above are still
sucking breast
at the time of this agreement.
You can't mix Red Oil and Palm kernel Oil together
to get a
good result.
Is it that we are learning how to spell Democracy in
our
country or the teacher does not know how to teach?
Our problems started in 1914 because we don't
know who
signed it and there names and there intentions for
signing it.
If they so called imperialists white signed it in the
midnight
while we were sleeping, the cock has crown, we
have brushed
our teeth, and taken our bath. Our eyes have
opened to look
for the amalgamation treaty and do something
about it.
sometimes a Northerner can't sleep with eyes closed in the
Southern
part of Nigeria and sometimes a Southerner can't do the same
in the
North. Inter marriage is almost a Taboo.
After 100years we are still importing toothpicks,
going abroad
for medical checkup, our lucrative cash crops has
gone to
moribund, Education for all by the year 2050,
Unemployment is
a baptismal name for graduates, a police officer
cannot boast
of his work because of vestige of his salary, our
Obasanjo
Space Center and Satellite Office at Abuja can not
trace the
location of Sambisa Forest.
Nigeria is a great nation but don't don't you think we'll do better when separated probably religious/tribal misunderstanding will....

PAGAN9JA:

Cant you see my name? Is that not enough for you to deduce my faith?

ok,Mr pagan,I want you to believe that no religion(xtianity,islam,buhdism, paganism...) teaches violence would u?? either it's a divine or man-made religion.just that in every religion there's always the good and the bad ones,so you don't need to criticize a certain religion just because of the habit of a self minded person amongst others.I just want you to ponder over these,I apologise in advance if I do hurt you with my speech. thanks

I have xtians as friends and blood relatives I don't abuse them/religion or terrorise them and neither do they, Wondering what kind of religion u practice, that makes u derive pleasure from abusing others believe...well,I wish you guidance..

PAGAN9JA:
who are the muslims preaching to,to accept islam?

Maybe you should ask yourself.

we don't need to ask anyone, tune ur mobile device and know how alot are converting to islam especially in the western world, that's the fact

PAGAN9JA:
When will our people grow some balls and retaliate to these violent people.

Qur'an 2:190
وَقَاتِلُوْا فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اللّٰهِ الَّذِيْنَ يُقَاتِلُوْنَكُمْ وَلَا تَعْتَدُوْا ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُعْتَدِيْنَ
Fight in the way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress. Indeed. Allah does not like transgressors.
Qur'an 2:191
وَاقْتُلُوْهُمْ حَيْثُ ثَقِفْتُمُوْهُمْ وَاَخْرِجُوْهُمْ مِّنْ حَيْثُ اَخْرَجُوْكُمْ وَالْفِتْنَةُ اَشَدُّ مِنَ الْقَتْلِ ۚ وَلَا تُقٰتِلُوْهُمْ عِنْدَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَـرَامِ حَتّٰى يُقٰتِلُوْكُمْ فِيْهِ ۚ فَاِنْ قٰتَلُوْكُمْ فَاقْتُلُوْهُمْ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ جَزَآءُ الْكٰفِرِيْنَ
And kill them wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah is worse than killing. And do not fight them at al-Masjid al- Haram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.
Qur'an 2:192
فَاِنِ انْـتَهَوْا فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ
And if they cease, then indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
THE KILLING IN THE VERSE HAS A LITERAL MEANING DOES NOT NECESSARY MEAN TO TAKE LIFE BUT RATHER, TO FIGHT/STRIVE AGAINST THE UNBELIEVERS WHO TRANGRESS.if muslims are to kill others,so who are the muslims preaching to,to accept islampls if u have been mislead,pls don't mislead others too. thanks

PAGAN9JA:
cause of terrorism is the bloody islamic cult. The whole world knows that. Dont think we have forgotten what terror those people brought to Arewa. They were nothing but slave drivers and islamists. You are clueless what these jihadis did to Adamawa and other regions.

And true Hausa Bamaguje will never accept these people for what they have done to Hausas.

wisdom is God's gift
thank you bye

PAGAN9JA:
Oh really? Like funding islamic almajri education maybe?

Are you his spokesperson btw. Your name is enough.

in a democratic state with governor and other govt officials,who are politically above the emir THERE IS A LIMIT TO WHAT HE CAN DO, get that into ur brain.. though I know you will never understand,is the richest man in Africa not also from Kano too bye

PAGAN9JA:
Are you saying fuulbe are indigenous to Nigeria? These are the same people who ravaged the North with islamic terrorism. The after effect we are still suffering to date.

I thought you would answer the question I asked, being an intelligent person,
if you don't know the cause of terrorism please don't attribute it to a particular tribe because of ignorance (sorry to say),in Kano the fulbe and hausa are almost indistinguishable due to inter marriage relationship between the duo,and other factors such as religious, culture,....

PAGAN9JA:
What exactly has he done for the people?

Intelligence without proper direction is useless.

he has done a lot financially and morally, find out from those living in his territory, there is a limit to what he can do,

PAGAN9JA:
Please what is traditional about that attire? The Headress is copied from Hausa. The cloak is copied from the arabic bisht. The pants from pakistan. And those hideous slippers from the English Movie, "The Grinch".

This is just flaunting and abuse of wealth of an impoverished and war torn nation. A man at his position how does he even sleep peacefully at night?

Don't be deceived by these descendants of upgraded cowherds from Senegambia.

If he really wants to wear traditional attire let him dress like his forefathers below. Then I will stand beside him and support him.

to buttress ur claim, can you mention the names if the emir's lineage to the so called senegambia I don't know what pple gain from false allegations coated with ignorance.

PAGAN9JA:
waste fellows. Emir Sanusi has no brain. half the nation is walking barefoot and hungry and here he is flaunting those massive slippers in public. abuse of Nigerian wealth by these descendants of senegambian cowherders

every sane person in this country knows emir Sanusi is an intelligent person, moreover he is a first class traditional ruler,and their is a limit to what he can do... thanks

MajorJeffery:
Whenever I see this Sanusi, I feel like he should put his suit back on and go back to the field. Such an intellectually sound man being caged with a traditional costume.

he isn't caged at all, it's his opinion and he wasn't forced. it's his wish, thanks

ecclize:
Yes its possible b'coz he didn't use the money for anything... No state investment... No project... Nothing nothing mad man

fact!!!

Someone may be wondering & ask; why is Buhari
and Archbishop of Canterbury always hanging out
whenever he, Buhari goes to London? Well, I will
attempt to answer that question. Don’t panic, it is
not an Islamization or Christianisation agenda.
President Muhammed Buhari and Archbishop Justin
Welby have some things in common.
The duo first came in contact in late 70s when
Buhari was Minister of Petroleum and Justin Welby
was Financial Executive Director in the petroleum
industry, for the French corporation Elf Aquitaine in
charge of West African region. Obviously, he was
based in Nigeria.
While Buhari was running the oil sector for Nigeria,
Welby was running for France. Both men were in
charge of the oil sectors that was worth billions
upon billions of Dollars. Imagine being in control of
oil sector controlling billions of dollars in the 70s.
Buhari & Welby could have enriched themselves
beyond imagination and be among the world
celebrated richest men of today if they had wanted.
But, No! Not Buhari or Welby. Both were contented
with what they have and were not ready to abuse the
privileges given to them.
While Buhari left public service to become a small
cattle farmer in his village. Justin Welby on the
other hand left public service to become an ordinary
Priest no portfolio.
Both have no oil well, no trace of corruption to
them, no personal oil company & no personal
businesses their names.
You see this life? It is all about choices. You can
choose to work in the most lucrative & tempting
jobs of this world, yet resist the temptation of
taking what does not belong to you.
You can choose to serve and retire home with a
clean hand & conscience. Then God who sees the
good deeds in secret will reward you openly.
Today! Justin Welby is the President of Anglican
communion world wide, while Buhari on the other
hand is the President of the most populous black
nation on earth.
When the former British Prime Minister was quick
to call Nigerians “fantastically corrupt” Archbishop
Welby was on ground to quickly rebuke David
Cameron. “This particular President is not corrupt”.
His words....... may you have someone to defend
you when the world is about to rubbish you.
Ladies & gentlemen, I present to you, President
Buhari & Archbishop Justin Welby.

Northerners and violence approach.

there should certainly be an untold story about the scenario....

The biography
Atiku Abubakar, GCON.

I was born on November 25, 1946 in Jada, Adamawa State, Nigeria. I was named after my paternal grandfather, Atiku Abdulkadir. It was the practice among the Fulani people to name their first sons after their paternal grandfathers.

My grandfather, Atiku, came originally from Wurno in Sokoto State. There, he had met and befriended Ardo Usman, a Fulani nobleman from what is now known as Adamawa State. My grandfather decided to accompany his new friend back to his home- town of Adamawa.

They settled in Kojoli, a small village in Jada Local Government Council of Adamawa State. My grandfather farmed, kept livestock and raised a family. He married a local girl in Kojoli and gave birth to my father, Garba Atiku Abdulkadir. He was their only child. My father was an itinerant trader who traveled from one market to another selling imitation jewelry, caps, needles, potash, kola nuts and other nick-knacks which he ferried around on the back of his donkey. He also kept some livestock and cultivated guinea corn, maize and groundnuts.

When it was time for him to marry, my father chose a young girl from nearby Jada town whose parents had migrated from Dutse, now the capital of Jigawa State. My mother, Aisha Kande, was born in Jada. Both my father and paternal grandfather were learned men. They gave free Islamic classes to adults and young people in Kojoli during their spare time. As a young boy growing up in Kojoli, my parents doted on me. They tried their best to provide for me and to ensure that I grew up in a wholesome environment of love and spirituality. My father saw me as a rare gift, a child of destiny. My parents tried unsuccessfully to have more children.

GOING TO SCHOOL My father, Garba Atiku Abdulkadir, was fond of me. He wanted me to become an Islamic scholar, herdsman, farmer and trader – just like him. He was a deeply religious man who was suspicious of Western education which he believed could corrupt the impressionable minds of young people. My father did not want me to go to school. He tried to hide me from the prying eyes of Native Authority officials who had embarked on compulsory mass literacy campaign in the region. My father soon discovered that he could not resist the wind of change that was blowing through the area at the time. My mother’s older brother, Kawu Ali who had received a little education through adult literacy classes, registered me at Jada Primary School in January 1954 as Atiku Kojoli. For trying to stop me from going to school, my father was arrested, charged to an Alkali court and fined 10 Shillings. He refused to pay the fine. He said he had no money. He spent a few days in jail until my maternal grandmother, who made local soap for sale in the community, raised the money to pay the fine and father was released to her. But my father was not a happy man. He was sad and angry that his only child had been taken away from him to be exposed to a strange world. He saw Western education as a threat to their cherished values and way of life.

FATHER’S DEATH Three years after I started school, tragedy struck in December 1957. I was then11 years old. I was just about to begin the Senior Primary School in Jada as a boarding pupil. My father drowned while trying to cross a small river known as Mayo Choncha on the outskirts of Toungo, a neighbouring town. The river was in high tide following a heavy rainfall. Father’s body was recovered the following day and buried in Toungo according to Islamic rites. He was less than 40 years old when he died.

I built an Islamic primary school at his burial site years later to immortalize him. He was a simple, hard working, kind, honest and God-fearing man. I miss him a lot. After my father’s death, the task of raising me fell on my mother, Kande, and her childless sister, Azumi, as well as my father’s extended family members in Kojoli. Although people were generally kind and caring towards me, it was difficult for relatives to fill the vacuum left by my father. As such, I was often sad and lonely. Father’s death pained me greatly. I resolved to work hard, remain focused and be successful in life to make my father proud. I was sure that he was somewhere watching over me. I did not want to disappoint him. I wish father had lived long enough to see the benefits of Western education in my life.

KADUNA, KANO & ZARIA After completing my primary school in Jada in 1960, I was admitted into Adamawa Provincial Secondary School in Yola. I joined 59 other young boys from Adamawa and beyond in January 1961 to begin a five-year high school journey. The school’s motto is Tiddo Yo Daddo, a Fulani aphorism for “Endurance is Success”. It reminded us daily that success in life would only come to those who worked hard and persevered. Adamawa Provincial Secondary School, like others in the region, belonged in the second category of post-primary institutions in Northern Nigeria. The most prestigious schools were the Government Colleges in Zaria and Keffi. Pupils who excelled in the entrance examination went to the Government Colleges; those who did reasonably well went to the Provincial Secondary Schools; average students were sent to the Craft Schools in the various Divisions; and those who failed the examination were sent to Farm Centres which were established in all the Districts. It was a good system which took care of everyone irrespective of his or her level of intelligence.

When I was 15, I spent my school holiday at home, working as a clerk in Ganye Native Authority. My boss was Adamu Ciroma, the then District Officer. From my holiday job earnings, I bought a house for my mother in Ganye, the headquarters of the local government council. The thatched mud bungalow had two rooms plus a kitchen and bathroom. It cost me about nine Pounds Sterling. My mother was very happy and proud of me. I had saved her from homelessness after her older brother sold the family house in Jada without her knowledge.

SERVING IN THE CUSTOMS

Before completing my Diploma in Law programme in June 1969, a team from the Federal Civil Service Commission came on a recruitment drive to the university. By chance one of the interviewers found in my file a report that I had once been found suitable to join the police force and had in fact received some training in 1966. This in- formation was brought to the attention of the chairman of the interview panel who promptly ruled. “O.k., you go to the Department of Customs and Excise”. That was how I joined the Department of Customs and Excise in June 1969. The invisible hand that has always shaped my life had once again steered me towards my destiny. After my training at the Police College in Ikeja, Lagos and at the Customs Training School in Ebute Metta in Lagos, I was posted to Idi Iroko border station. My colleagues and I were tasked with collecting duties on imported and exported goods, stop- ping the entry and exit of banned items, and arresting and prosecuting smugglers. I was posted in 1972 to Ikeja Airport in Lagos and later to Apapa ports in Lagos. I saw Customs not as a punitive institution but as a way of making money for government. Instead of seizing goods and extorting money from their owners, I made money for government.

A lot of people tried unsuccessfully to induce me. I was posted to Ibadan mid 1975 and promoted Superintendent of Customs. This was during the memorable days of General Murtala Muhammed, the nation’s new military leader who had electrified the nation with his campaign for discipline, probity, hard work, patriotism and dedication to duty. I admired General Muhammed and tried to promote the same values and attitudinal change in our office. I was nick-named “Murtala Muhammed Junior” by my Customs subordinates in Ibadan because they said I was behaving like him. Although I was second-in-command in Ibadan, I used to order late-comers to be locked out of their offices.

I was sad to hear about General Muhammed’s assassination on February 13, 1976 during a failed military coup. Some of those who were later implicated in the coup and killed were well known to me. But I did not know they were involved in a coup plot. Shortly after that failed coup, I was transferred to Kano in 1976.

while some pple claim northerners are less civilised,but it's obvious that they have the least crime related offences abroad
