madam_oringo: I pity your son who you pathetically complained could not get enough marks to be admitted like the folks in Gombe! He wil be the chief tribalist and bigot after having the misfortune of a man like you as his father!!

Attack the message not the messenger.

speeder: liar, which yr was AK47 invented?

Youngzedd: You got it wrong dear, such words are not meant to be used here.

Why not "Daddy you can lie oooooo"

Soviet Mikhail Kalashnikov was conscripted into the Red Army in 1938 and served as a tank driver when he was injured during the Battle of Bryansk in 1941. During his time at the hospital, he began work on a firearm design specifically to fulfill the requirements to a gun competition being held for the new 7.62x41mm cartridge. Despite losing the competition, Kalashnikov - now part of a team - sought to fulfill a new Soviet Red Army need for an assault weapon chambered to fire the new 7.62x39mm M1943 cartridge. While the war ended in 1945, developments of new automatic weapons continued. The Kalashnikov design (the prototype known as the "AK-46" was successfully tested in 1946 and a revised, more reliable form appeared in 1947 for additional testing. The Red Army liked the robust qualities of the new weapon and formally accepted the type as the "AK-47" in 1949 (AK = "Avtomat Kalashnikova"

donwilz: Common sense, pesin no go get. Na only to de find wahala, instead , u don fool urself. Ak47 rifles had been in use as far back as early 1940's. Don't you feel dumb now.. eh?

Isra-el:
the story is all over my facebook homepage that africa's number one celebrity and demi god of south africa is dead. it has not been publicly revealed to avoid uproar. it has not been confirmed. how true can it be?

BLACKPANTHER: U even price am well. Am from the North,28 barrels"ll equate the whole bags MUMU. May b ur laughing, u just dnt knw wht oil will b by the next ten years abi?

babaowo: ... exactly what's happened cos i rememberd then in 1989 of my mates who failed at 200 level at lasu whan to insuka to obtained 1st class, and they later come to lagos and boasting...i hail naija system.

gbanikiti: A Nigerian man who is married to a Kenyan for over 18 years is now being accused of drug dealings? why didnt they find out all these years? why not prosecute him over there in Kenya? I haven't heard of someone caught with drugs and he is deported. NEVER!! The person is made to face charges and probably go to jail. Why should Chinedu's case be different?

babyosisi: Abi o
But at least we know the leaders and the ones wey dey carry last for education

JAMB had spoken earlier
Now national mom on entrance don speak too

babyosisi: Anambra leads
Followed by Imo state
Followed by Enugu State

To nu Jah !

Abagworo: Lol! I'm surprised you've not noticed a pattern here on Nairaland. I've asked why they are always doing that. Igbos need to make it a death penalty for any Igbo to talk down a fellow Igbo. Or better still the Igbos that see themselves as equal should form a new ethnic group where everyone will have deserved respect.

EPOMA: That shows his level of stupiditty

texaco1: he is the one that is not respecting himself.all the fights he has been fighting how many did the fg bankrolled?there is no law that compels govt to foot this bill.if the fg isnt responding why cant he try other cooperate organistaions or multinationals?at one time he said he will be sleeping at the gate of pdp national headquaters as if he is a pensioner.he is the one bringing himself to ridicule ,maybe with this incident someone will have pity on him and bankroll the fight.but who will want to spend millions on a fight like this ?he should try state govs maybe one of them will sponsor the fight

Shuo!!! who wan bankroll suicide? Bros you wicked o.

Afam4eva: I'm talking of the people based in the commercial towns of Onitsha, Nnewi and Aba and not people who are from these places. These commercial traders that i'm referring to are Igbo from all parts of Igboland, so i find it strange that you people would think i was referring to people of Anambra origin. There's no gain saying that Enugu is home to more Igbo elites than any other Igbo town, so the response in Enugu won't be as much as in the places that i mentioned previously. Other places with similar idiosyncrasies with Enugu are non-commercial towns such as Awka, Owerri, and Asaba.

Afam4eva: Did these people you listed live in Onitsha? Go back and read my comment and understand it.

Afam4eva: First of all, i don't know why you're naming people from Anambra cos i never said anything about Ndi Anambra being illiterates. I only talked about Enugu town and not it's people. Was Enugu not jointly built by all Igbos with Anambra people even being at the forefront?

There's nothing wrong with calling people to sit at home to mourn Igbos that have been murdered in the North. It's a problem when people are threatened to do so. That's what happens when you have pseudo illiterates running a sensitive group as MASSOB. They should learn to employ diplomacy when doing things. There's a reason why the top echelon of the Igbo society don't associate with Biafra.

Afam4eva: Enugu is always different. If there's one thing i've noticed, it is that MASSOB seems to be dominant anywhere you have a lot of pseudo-illiterate traders.

Aigbofa: Nice ranting. Not long ago on this forum, I said Ironsi laid the foundation of mediocrity in Nigeria by making Nigeria a unitary state. I was abused by some Igbo here and one of them asked why subsequent administrations did not revert the system back to what it was.
The question is; why would the beneficiaries of Ironsi's action want to change anything. If you are playing a game in which your opponent score an own goal, giving you an advantage,would you ask the referee to revert the score to where it was.
This is why the south is clamoring for restructuring and the north is resistant.

ShyM-X:
Deal with it.

Is GEJ the most qualified person to rule Nigeria? If not for quota system(and giving the SS a chance) - do you honestly think someone as ridiculously dumb as he's should be ruling a country as complex as Nigeria? That's how your country is structured - deal with it, brother.

I don't care about how they choose to lead their lives in that part of the country. If the purpose of unity schools is to unify the country - then they deserve their quota regardless of whatever score they get, period!

If you don't like it - avoid unity schools and look for alternatives. That's the beauty of having options.

ShyM-X:
After reading what Katsumoto and DK posted on another thread about the same topic - I understand why the quota system is necessary in such schools. If the concept of "Unity Schools" was to unify the country by getting kids from different parts of country to attend the same schools - I honestly don't think there's anything wrong in applying quota system a la affirmative action for parts of the Nigeria that are educationally backwards. If you don't apply that; then it defeats the reason why those schools were created in the first place.

There's a similar policy in the UK and America for kids from inner cities. Since most of you believe in Nigeria; you need to stop moaning about everything and help the other side get to your level. That's the spirit of one country and being your brother's keeper.
