I saw this in the news today and i'm like, WTF. There are other ways to encourage the patronage of locally made vehicles and not a total ban of importation of vehicles.

How's this an American thing? No nation can be said to be free or tribal, racial or religious bias. In as much as we have to condemn such acts of Racism, we mustn't tie it to a particular country as those are comments of a few Americans and not a true representation of the entire country else, Barrack Obama wouldn't be president. I also find it hypocritical that some people on this thread that have PHD in tribal hate are also lending their voices to the opposite of what they call gospel. In Nigeria, we condemn people just because they're not from our tribe(even though we're all blacks) but have the effrontery to call others racist. I'm sure Indians are also playing the victim card when it's on record that they're one of the most racist country in the world. There's no single Black Indian Actor cos once you're black you're assumed to be ugly and not fit to be something meaningful. When we condemn acts like this, we must search ourselves and ensure that we're not guilty of what we accuse others of doing.

babyosisi: So Afam, I can now give you my younger Cousin Njideka in marriage now that you have been certified clean

Hope you can afford our Mbaise bride price and buy all the things in the prospectus we shall give you.
In return I promise you 5 boys and two girls in 7 years
Our women are more fertile than bunny wabbits

I'm looking forward to an Mbaise bride but i have to enter Forbes list first. First things first

ACM10: Which method is indirect solid phase technique? That result must be fake. BTW HIV is confirmed using PCR. But due to its unavailability in most centres, confirmatory test is done using two different ELISA kits. So don't go for thanksgiving yet.

Pls, can you translate this to pedestrian English.

Omen100: But make una wait 1st ooo, I don read through d tweet & I nor see were he 4 insult Christ Jesus but instead he accuse Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor say politicians buy him private jet & my question b say, na really truth say politicians buy him private jet?

Maybe Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor is his Jesus Christ on earth #JustSaying

Boss13: I think Benjamin Joseph tries to pronounce properly but he adds some nonsense accent too. Same thing as his co-presenter (adaora abi?) that accent is a disgusting one too.

Adaora Oleh is British brought up, so it's no faking.

I don't believe Kenneth Okonkwo said all this This is a lie from the pit of hell. It sounds ridiculously false. These bloggers no go kill person

This is what annoys me about Nigerian presenters. Why don't we learn to relate to the target audience. It's not as if these Nigerian programs are being watched by Americans. How can someone who has been eating akpu since they were born try to do an American accent. it always sounds like someone with a hot yam inside his mouth.

Pls, let's not underestimate the Ethiopians. They got to this round for a reason. It's easier to play a team you know no matter how good than a team you have no clue about.

I want to use this opportunity to send my condolence to the black stars of Ghana cos their stars will be blacker after playing Egypt. Sub-Saharan Africans don't have a good record against North African sides especially Egypt. But i wish Ghana qualifies.

If the Enugu Rangers disqualification was not upturned then i don't think Cape Verde stands any chance.

Not forgetting JOBS

Pls, is BBA still on?

solomon111: Beautiful game of football.
It seems Enyimba is the manchester united of Nigerian football,while kano pillars is like liverpool.
Two great rivals going head to head for the GLO Premier league.

Can you shed light on the bolded.

god_of_music: Timaya is a good example for the IGBOS in Bayelsa
Then Ini Edo and i are good example for the IGBOS in Edo

Timaya is Ijaw. He understands Igbo cos he grew up in Port-hacourt.

Ini Edo is Ibibio from Akwa-Ibom state and not Edo.

PointB: I think Uwazuruike should leave MASSOB for those who understand the meaning.

MASSOB stands for Movement for Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra. Hobnobbing with agents of one Nigeria, and making comments in support of one Nigeria clearly goes against the simplest objective of the group as reflected in the name. He either stand for Nigeria and leave MASSOB or stand with MASSOB and forget Nigeria. He can't achieve Biafra by supporting one Nigeria; neither can he pursue those two dissimilar goals concurrently.

Either a MASSOB name change is paramount now, or Uwazuruike should quit as he lost it completely.

Exactly. I actually think a change of name and aspiration for Massob is the way to go cos their agitations in recent times has not been in tandem with the reason the group was created. They should just become an Igbo group like Ohanaeze while another group(if needed) tends to the Biafra front.

Massob, just like some other groups in the country don't even know the goal of their group. That;s why i see Massob as a huge joke. How can a seperatist group be calling for "one Nigeria". It's still the same group that fights for Igbo president and you begin to ask, Igbo president where? In Nigeria or Biafra?

Obiagelli: Afam4eva messed up, he didn't even wait to see pics from lagos. I am beginning to suspect him

What a joke. I don't need pictures to see where i live.

agbameta: Common sense should tell you that with more population, you have to build and spend more money on schools, you have to spend more money basically on hospitals and clinics, you have to spend more money on all infrastructure and also, you get frequent wear and tear which means you have to again spend more money.to keep up with population pressure on your infrastructure and services..

This is basic laws of supply and demand, this is economics 101 and public administration 101.

You are not making sens as usual. Please don't derail the thread with ignorance and layman talk.


The fact that you are sickly tribal doesn't mean you shouldn't use your brain or must think like a 2 year old.

The laws of demand and supply will suffice if we were referring to economics. Government and business don't go hand in hand and majority of lagosians don't depend on government to do much for them as those things are taken care of by private establishments.

If by fared better you mean "Successful" then it's Olamide even though i think he's overated. But as far as talent is concerned, my money is on Phyno. Who's that person that said Olamide killed it in "Ndi Ala". You should have just said you don't understand Igbo. I understand both languages and i don't think Olamide came close to Phyno on that track. I wonder why people even compare Olamide to Dagrin.

KnowAll: - Lamido beats both of them based on that category.

If professional bodies were to rank governors according to all the indices, all these governors building staircases to heaven may not even make the cut. Governance goes beyond that. Unfortunately, we're in a society where people are moved by what they see.

agbameta: You are wrong.

Akwa Ibom has more money for just 5 million people and they post the largest state budgets in Nigeria.


How do you even make such ignorant statement without population factor and exactly what each state spends..?

Leave this alone and keep an eye on the derailers, I've sent so many messages

I've told you people to stop bringing in population as long as Lagos or any state does not feed it's population. If anything, it's to the advantage of the state with a higher populaton cos that will mean more money via taxation. We're looking at the number and quality of projects executed and only a blind man will not give it to Akpabio but if we were to rank them based on people oriented projects then it may not even go to either of them. An obscure governor may win it ahead of them.

As far as Infrastructural development is concerned based on the revenue that accrues to the states, i will rate Akwa-Ibom ahead of Lagos state. Though Lagos has equally done well when compared to previous governments.

uj_sizzle: Both, the latter is why i haven't bothered with the test. The former is why am scared to even go even though i'm fairly certain am negative.

You can't be fairly certain except you've taken a test

TheBookWorm: Michigan Representative John Olumba. He is also running for mayor of Detroit.

There's another guy that ran to be mayor of Houston and another one came third in the race to become the mayor of Toronto, Canada.

IGBO-SON:
^^^Don't mind the blithering fool. If only i could get my hands on him......he'd wish he had been caught in Malaysia were they chop of heads for this type of indiscretion!

I don't mind a death sentence for these people that keep bringing our name to disrepute.

Lilimax: Igbo all the way.
I'm currently speaking the language to my children.
They must understand Igbo language by force

That's very good of you.

chimkaire: Igbo and Yoruba

Are you half caste?

My parents speak Nkanu Igbo to themselves and speak same to us.

Mr Aboki: Ogba..

Biko, ke nke bu Ogba? Is it the Ogba in Lagos or the one in Rivers?

ichidodo: Please when is the draw?

In 5 days time.
