I NEARLY CRIED YESTERDAY WHEN I HEARD WHAT HAPPENED AT FEGGE ONITSHA POLICE STATION [img][/img][img][/img]AND HOW THE YOUTHS RESPONDED TO DPO RABIU GARBA,A GOOD POLICE OFFICER TO EMULATE*

A man who never put tribalism, religion or differences in his work.... True to his calling to serve our nation without influence of any politician. Not an Igbo man but he speaks Igbo in a way you will be mesmerized and full of laughter whenever he speaks.. He will tell you Nwannah why disobeying the law? People say police is not your friend but in this man I disagree with that notion. In him, i immensely believe that police is a friend.... Yesterday the youth was rampaging looking for Police Station to burn down. When they troop to his Fegge Police Station with gallons of fuel and weapons, most of his men was grip with fear, Behold !, when he came out, the Chants of the angry youths Change from
" We no go agree oh we no go agree oh" to
"DPO Garba you be our friend,
DPO Garba You be our man"

He addressed then properly, lectured them all and changed their perspective towards embracing calmness.. If you know him well you will know he can lecture very well from every angles of courses, law to Biology , physics to Science, religion to culture, he is the master of all... We call him Professor Rabiu. Tears nearly fall from my eyes tears of Joy and appreciation of a good man still serving and existing in Police.

This is a Police man i have ever see who believe that hardworking pays. He is a police man and a Farmer as well. He is a Police man and a Civil Engineer. He is a Police man and a Lecturer as well...

To me, I am encouraging all police men and woman to emulate this Young man and learn from his Public relation skill. Because I strongly believe Public relationship should be practiced to serve the public interest, to develop mutual understanding between organizations, the neighborhood and their publics.

As a Psychologist, i have noticed that without publicity there can be no public support, and without public support every nation must decay.”

DPO Rabiu Garba we all know was the man who single handedly build a Borehole water for the people of Fegge Where his station is situated without donations from the public. If i lie verify from anyone you know living in fegge.

He also Organized Sports event for the youth at fegge Stadium where he normally engaged them in Table Tenis playing competition after work.. He walks among all without gun, knife or tear gas because he does his work diligently without corruption. So no fear of the mob.

He attends many church events he is been invited for around onitsha which shows his sense of unity.

When police do bad we mock them when we see one doing good pls my brothers and sister let us encourage that one as to lift his or her spirit to do more because ndi ba anyi is na Etoo dike na nkem omeru omekwa ozo....

DPO Rabiu Garba enyi Oha nile. No wonder people once cried when you wanted to leave to another Station. How i wish we have thousands of police men and women like you, the Police institution would have been so harmonized.....keep up the good work. Good market sells itself in the market...

No wonder Odumeje cherish you so much.

Thank you once again for the way you handled the youth matter yesterday which results to zero casualties at Fegge District...

Ok

bigpriik:
I don't think this people represent Igbo interest at all, why so much love for this binikwerre people? why did he Not even include ifeanyi okowa or any other anioma man for Igbo presidency, are they no longer part of Igbo tribe?when will this men wise up and accept that ikwerres are not Igbos,the last time I checked Ikwerres have no economical or geographical advantage to add to Igboand..

As for me I would rather have an anioma man as president be it an ika ,aniochia, or ukwanni than to allow bini people represent us

GOD FORBID..

I think their selection was based on shown Interest.
By the way, I thought Ngozi Okonjo Iweala was there.

Howevere, that is their own thinking for a reason not many are unaware of. Meanwhile, when the time comes, Igbos know the right people to present.

Paschal2806:
*GOVERNOR OBIANO AND NDI IGWE CRISIS:*
*The Genesis of the Problem?*
*What is Governor Obiano not telling Ndi Anambra or his Agenda?*

*....By Paschal Candle.*

In the Last two months, Anambra State has been in the news for different reasons. The suspension of Igwe Ukwulu, Igwe Peter Uyanwa and the recent one being the suspension of 12 Traditional Rulers from the State who accompanied Prince Engr Arthur Eze to Abuja to thank President Muhammad Buhari for his love and developmental strides in Anambra State and South East. And the latest plot now, which is to instigate some Protest against These Traditional Rulers, so that The Governor will have an excuse why he deposed such Monarchs.

According to Governor Obiano in his Letter of suspension said the 12 Traditional Rulers were suspended for not taking permission from him or seeking his approval before going to see Mr President. And for that reason, it is a gross misconduct and He is suspending them based on the recommendation of Anambra State Traditional Rulers Council led by His Royal Majesty, Igwe Alfred Achebe, Obi of Onitsha.

One thing that has not occurred to the minds of Ndi Anambra, what brought about these suspensions and counter suspension. Let me first redirect our minds on how these issues started and at the end, please tell me if the Governor of Anambra State is not afraid of Obi of Onitsha or if Obi of Onitsha is doing the biddings of the Governor using Traditional Rulers Chairman as a cover-up, using the office of the Chairman to pursue Governor's agenda.

Let me ask, Is a Traditional Ruler supposed to play partisan Politics or support a Candidate in an Election? Supporting a Candidate or a Party for an election, is it not a gross misconduct on the part of the Traditional Ruler? So why is Governor Obiano didnt suspend Obi of Onitsha in this regard.

Let me bring our minds to what led this present crisis. This is because if we do not get to the remote causes of this crisis. We will not find a way out. Many of us are looking at the Immediate causes or why should these Monarchs go to Abuja to report The Governor, which is all lies and imagination of the those who are playing the Governor's card.

For an Igbo adage says, *"Onye na-amaro ebe Mmiri bidoro mmaba ya, agahi ama ebe mmiri noro kocha na -aru*, that is if you do not know where Rain started to beat you, you will not know where it dried up in your body.

If Ndi Anambra can remember very well, late Last Year, Obi of Onitsha by the virtue of His Position as Chairman of Anambra State Traditional Rulers Council is a member of Anambra Elders Council, whose responsibility should have been non-political and non-partisan. But Anambra State Elders have turned themselves into a Political Arm of APGA Govenment.

Last year, The Obi of Onitsha, HRM Igwe Nnaemeka Achebe, a former Secretary General of the Commonwealth, Chief Emeka Anyaoku, Chief Chuemeka Ezeife and other members of the Anambra Elders’ Council held a meeting under the name of the Council demanding the Anambra State Governor, Govenor Obiano should hand over the State to Prof. Chukwuma Soludo. As if that is not enough, they also commended Prof. Chukwuma Soludo’s vision for Anambra State.

They also approved that Anambra South Senatorial District should produce the next governor of the state in 2021. They stated this in a meeting held at Governor’s Lodge at Amawbia on that Wednesday night. Also, in statement by the Secretary to the Anambra State Government, Prof Solo Chukwudebelu, said the meeting was well attended. Where was these Elders in 2010, 2013 and 2017 when even Prof. Soludo himself rejected zoning, when he was approached to allow Mr Peter Obi to complete his tenure for 2nd term. Then he can come to contest. in 2013, He showed interest again, but was disqualified by APGA.

Also reecently, His Royal Majesty, Igwe Alfred Achebe under his Leadership as Chairman of Anambra State Traditional Rulers Council held another meeting without consulting other Monarchs and issued a communique that the 2021 Governorship should be zoned to Anambra South. First their political game plan was to handover to Soludo who is incidentally is from Anambra South.

Many Traditional Rulers from Anambra North first issued a counter led by Igwe Igbariam that they were not part of the zoning agreement. Then Followed by Traditional Rulers from Anambra Central. That Zoning was not never discussed anywhere and Ndi Anambra Should go ahead and contest no matter the zone where the person comes from. I believe this counter statements from these Traditional Rulers didnt go down well with Governor Willie Obiano and his camp. Most especially Igwe Uyanwa Press Statement was tagged so many things and Governor then suspended Igwe Ukwulu on filmsy excuses that there were many petitions against him. I raised a lot of questions which was not answered till date by Governor Obiano's Mad dogs on social media.

On solidarity to what was done to Igwe Ukwulu for his stand against zoning, Many Traditional Rulers from different zones came to pay a solidarity to him. That Solidarity showed that all is not well in Anambra State Traditional Rulers Council. Some Traditional Rulers have constituted themselves into cabals.

Many Personalities from different parts of Anambra State were there in solidarity. Prince Engr Arthur Eze was among the first callers and in the presence of Ndi Igwes, He raised the issue of 5% that was constitutionally approved for Traditional Rulers and questioned why Governor Obiano is not paying that of Anambra State to the Traditional Rulers in the State.

He equally raised the issue of Local Government funds, what the money is being used for and also questioned why Governor Obiano did not want to conduct Local Government elections. Prince Engr Arthur Eze praised the Traditional Rulers for the roles they have been playing in maintaining peace and security in their different domains and begged them to accompany him in a private visit to President Muhammad Buhari, just to thank Him for the wonderful infrastructural developments in Anambra State and South East.

This revelations did not go down well with Anambra State Governor. Hence He unleashed his mad dogs to be insulting Anambra Traditional Rulers and Prince Engr Arthur Eze.

From these moments, Governor Obiano declared war on theses Traditional Rulers and Prince Engr Arthur Eze. I raised a lot of questions also then, one of which was why is it difficult for Governor to address the issues raised by Prince Engr Arthur Eze (Ozoigbondu). Why is he afraid of the visit to Aso Villa that Governor Obiano has to engage the services of Dr Chris Ngige to stop these Royal Fathers and Prince Engr Arthur Eze from the visit? All they can offer is to attack the Messenger instead of the message.

Back to the Crisis, my simple question is this. why is Governor didnt sanction Obi of Onitsha, when he ought to have been neutral on matters of Politics of the State than taking sides with Soludo and on the issue of zoning? Why didnt Obi Of Onitsha call for meeting of Traditional Rulers in 2010,2013,2017 to talk about Zoning then? Why trying to change the goal post in the middle of the game?

Is this not gross misconduct on the part of the Chairman of a body that is supposed to play a fatherly role in the affairs of the State? Why was Governor Obiano neutral and refused to take actions against the Chairman? Is Governor Obiano not a hypocrite? What is good for the Chairman, should also be good for the members. I am not here to talk about the legality of The suspension of these Traditional Rulers. It will not stand the test of time. It must be challenged in the law court. Until Governor Obiano suspend Obi of Onitsha,then will progressive and unbiased Ndi Anambra accept other suspensions.

*I still Remain Paschal Candle.*

This is a nonsense attack on the noble "King" Igwe Nnaemeka Echebe -the Obi of Onitsha. If you have any personal grouse with him, try to settle it and stop using this indirect and buffoonery means, you are not talking to kids.

He (The Governor) explained that the reason for the suspension of the 12 Igwes was because they went to visit the president without his approval and at the same time, you are enquirying why Iqwe Nmaemeka Echebe was not suspended for having a meeting with fellow members of the elders council. Was their meeting with the president? Does he (Igwe Echebe) need the governor's approval to have discussion with people or anyone he likes?

Again, you asked why did he not campaign for zoning in the previous years and why is he not neutral? Another nonsensical questions.

Money people.

[img][/img]Chibuike Amaechi Is My Name, I am Igbo From Ikwere And Ikwere People Are Igbo

My father loved one Yoruba lawyer called Rotimi. He dreamed to make me be like that smart lawyer, Rotimi. My name Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi is Igbo and Yoruba only. I took the Yoruba name in admiration of the lawyer ...but my birth name are only Igbo names Chibuike Amaechi. I am an igbo man. Let no one deny me my Igbo heritage, birthright, ancestry, please! Unless you want to be sectional and deny the igbo people. I have made my self clear to National assembly, repeatedly, that I, Chibuike Amaechi from Ikwerre, am an igbo man. Our people are Igbo people.

—Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi

He was From Kanuri too

What is this brouhaha about presidential candidate? I believe if kastinans had known that current happenings now is what Pmb presidency would bring to them, they would have preferred Jonathan.

Osibanjo is the vice president, Femi Gbajamiala is the speaker of house of reps, Fowler was the Chairman of Firs -I am still looking for how these have bettered the lives of the Yoruba masse.

You deny Igbos presidency,(true, only you do not have the capacity to so) thinking you want to hold them down still, some of you will still go to some Igbos to borrow you money. Is that not a shame?

After the shouts and positions in 2015 and now, the south west/Yorubas still have the highest numbers of suicides and suicide attempts, which are all as a of frustrations. Even if someone from the region becomes president, the case will still not change.
Apart from bragging rights, what does the ordinary Yoruba man gain?

You need sense Mr Op to think on how to generally better the lives of Nigerians rather than condescending your mind on regions.

Gana died after a brief illness. Reacting to the news of his dead, President Buhari in a statement on Tuesday mourned the dead of his friend and political ally. In a statement made available to dambela.com ” President Buhari condoles with the family , All Progressives Congress (APC), the government and people of Kaduna state over the passing away of Alhaji Umar Tuesday after a protracted illness “.

The President recalls Alhaji Gana’s enormous contributions towards the successes recorded by the APC at the 2015 and 2019 Presidential and governorship polls during which he served as Coordinator and member of the Campaign Council respectively.

He also prays that God will comfort the family of the dedicated departed politician and grant rest to his soul”.

It would be recalled that one of the President’s former friends and associates Ismaila Isa Funtua just recently died of cardiac arrest and was buried yesterday.

My fellow etche , Ikwerre and ika brothers and sisters in this site let me tell you something.if Ikwerre and etche were carved into imo and Abia states we would be be claiming Igbos today.i once hate Igbos with passion because I believe they easily dominate wherever they go and they seem proud however I discover I was only hating on myself .I like digging deep and I found the truth which is we are a different dialects of the Igbo people.

I strongly believe The hatred and denial began during the civil war , because my father told me how ojukwu was conscripting ikwerre and etche children into the army against their parents will. most of the boys never came back home alive maybe they died in combat.he also said they denied being Igbos because they heard how Nigerian soldiers massacred innocent Igbo civilians whenever they conquered any territory
So denying Igbos was a way to save their ass because it was a genocidal war lets not let people separate us from our brothers nature will punish us for it. It's more like a North and South Korea thing political borders is just what separates us that's all.I

Op I am 100% with you. You can check my comments here. I am an Etchie too, from OKEHI 2.

Go punish anybody that said I am not Igbo

LukasPodolski:
it's very simple, igboland has little or no opportunity... the Haiti of NIGERIA

You are simply lazy

You can live in Ogbomosho and succeed in Onitsha.

Igbos that succeeded in other places had to leave their lands to those places before they could succeed.

Hausa people that built mosques in Igboland, they did make the monies in the north. Success is about determination.

I have not actually listened to Ganduje before but from his speech on this video, he is just an ordinary politician, not intelligent at all.

IGBO BUSINESS MEN:
Sudden Wealth and Their Money Rituals!

This is probably the most difficult writeup I've done in recent times, but don't leave me yet...

You see, I love the Igbo tribe so much that I had to write Jamb three times and insisted on studying in an Igbo speaking state... Unfortunately, UNN and ESUT refused me admission, while I rejected to study Chemical Engineering in The Federal Polytechnic, Afikpo; Ebonyi State.

I've lived, mingled and transacted with lots of my Igbo business men and one thing stands out...

They are all ritualist...

A friend recently had a printing contract, and needed to come to Lagos to buy some of the things, like papers et all...

So, he approached the Mushin Market, with his well starched, ironed with visible contour; and a beautiful pair of shoe..

With high shoulder, he stepped out of the house to the admiration of street babes...

To him, going to buy materials worth almost 500k was a big deal, but he came back feeling slightly depressed...

Da, what's wrong, I asked politely having observed his mood...

For some minutes, he couldn't say anything...

So I thought he's been duped and brainwashed not to tell anyone,,,

You know the games na..

In the end, he said mildly; Da, fear igbo men ooo...

What happened, I asked again?

His response made me laugh so loud...

If you see what I saw today eh!

After I made a transfer to the guy for the 250k Papers I bought, for him to confirm the money has entered; he showed me the alert, and my eyes went to the account balance...

Bro, I saw 50million plus in the guy's account...

I mean, this guy was wearing bathroom slippers, Short and a small t-shirt...

There must be something else he does...

He must be a "ritualist"...

I immediately reacted in defense of the guy...

This mindset has been nurtured for too long by people of different tribes...

In my over 10years of associating with Igbo friends, I have been able to confirm that they are all positive "ritualist"...

May be we all need to look up the meaning of rituals...

The sudden wealth of an Igbo man is as a result of years of accumulation.

Igbo Business men who are already Millionaires will still look like one who hasn't seen N1 in a whole year...

They don't live in an expensive house while trying to build wealth...

They don't buy the most expensive cars when trying to build wealth, if they do during Christmas, they are selling it in January when they return from the village...

They don't go for expensive clothes while trying to build wealth...

They don't impress babes with money, while trying to build wealth...

But, the moment they've accumulated enough, everything mentioned above will be done in double of what anyone else has been doing,,,

They have a life ritual to build wealth...

They have healthy competition among themselves, if you think I'm lying, go to Anambra and see houses...

The major ritual of an Igbo Business man is patience, while building...

That is why, whenever I go to their shops and they call me my oga, I will quickly return it to them... Igbo man will respect and almost worship you just to sell his goods to you, but meet outside his shop, he tells you; get away there!

The sudden wealth of an Igbo Business man is as a result of many years of savings, and investment rituals..

So, next time you hear anyone telling you, Igbo Business men are "ritualist", be proud to let them know they are...

Because it takes strong ritual sacrifices in patience, savings and investment to build sustainable wealth...

If you are an Igbo Business man here, biko share to inspire your other brothers and let the world know that your rituals are positive rituals of patience, savings and investment...

One love my Igbo brothers...

seunmsg:
Yorubas do not hate Orji Uzor Kalu, we have absolutely no reason to hate him. He’s a member of APC and we recognize and support his political leadership.

How the OP and other wailers who obviously supported Atiku against Kalu’s choice of Buhari in the last election came to the erroneous and divisive conclusion that he is hated in the south west is what I don’t understand.

Most of you wailers are not even aware of the very close relationship that exist between Tinubu and Orji Uzor Kalu.

Divisive thread like this is the handy work of PDP sponsored handles and it is dead on arrival. APC supporters should stop engaging these handles in their show of silliness.

This is a simple post with a simple massage to comprehend, but how it trew you off your mental balance and disorganised your comprehensibility is quite surprising.

In your warped logic, so you voted Buhari because of Orji Kalu?
Or was Orji the one to tell us who to vote?

You will always have a trip of sand in your eyes but will chose to ignore it and talk more about the little some in another person's eyes, why?

ALCOHOLKILLS:
we Igbos hate orji, I don't give a Bleep about tunubu

This is an old tactics, it ain't working anymore.

But for your Information, Igbo as a group can not hate a fellow Igbo, they can only disagree.

YOU CAN'T HATE ORJI UZOR KALU, AT THE SAME TIME LOVE TINUBU.



ORJI UZOR KALU is a great Igbo politician, A Nigerian national builder, A respected politician among the political class of all ties.

But he is being libel by the habitually hateful and jealous Yoruba urchins.

A house has been discovered to have been bought in th USA by the immediate past and late governor of Oyo state worth millions of naira, while in office. They are mute and not talking anything about it.

Like late Ajumobi, Orji Uzor Kalu and etc, all governors of the south west got involved in fraud.

ORJI UZOR KALU is not more of a thief than Tinubu.

All the visits show you that your opinions do not matter among the political class.

ORJI UZOR KALU was elected as a governor the same time as Ahmed Bola Tinubu. While Tinubu was there and concerned for the monies he would make in Lagos, Orji Uzor Kalu was named the ACTION GOVERNOR in 1999 even till 2002. But this is not denying that he got derailed probably by the overbearing influence of his mother.

Tinubu's greatest achievement as a politician is getting people who are close to him to assume positions (godfatherism) which are all motivated for selfish reasons

Lagos under Tinubu was spelling.

You will ask; why this fixation on Tinubu?
Because, these western confined ignorant folks are adulating and worshiping him while libeling others.

Or you think we do not know.

Nonsense. I beg make way for me jare.

Oyo state

A crook is alway a crook. Tinubu is a crook and none of all these can make us look his way.



For the "who are us", us are the sane and balanced in mind people of Nigeria
