My Brother, Your Preposition Deserves Some Respect for your quest for knowledge. The regional government then have greater level of resource control, unlike what we have now - i hope you know what that means or just ask your parents if you are too young to know, except if they are canoe makers.

Actually awolowo educated everyone from the western region. including the igbo migrates from the east to lagos back then.

noiseless:
Have you finished?  I'm sure that you agree that some people where denied education cos awolawo subsidised education for his people only, and he said that coacoa was a cash crop that was found in yorubaland,so only the yorubas can benefit from it,as he believed nigeria was just a geografical expression while other leaders allowed their ressuces to be used to run nigeria.And yet despite all the free education the yorubas enjoyed all you can show for it is fake digrees and this braging of yours that you are educated than everyone and play 419 on them,that is what you know and do best, GET A LIFE PLS.

is it their fault that awolowo educate them ?

why the envy ?

maasoap:
Boko Harams have been killing you before subsidy removal but you people couldn't think of protests until Yorubas and Hausas staged internationally recognised protests that did not only force FG to reduce the price of petrol but also invite EFCC to investigate subsidy corruption. Myopic people couldn't see beyond their nose. Now they've seen what people can achieve by staging peaceful protests. In this one, nobody will hear cry, you're on your own.

it is ok. Lets show them we support them

Onlytruth:
I believe that the minimum wage must be increased to accommodate this. It is simple sense.

and inflation would increase with it at the same rate. back to square one

emmatok:
Better keep your protest to SS/SE.

If any Igbo try protest in  Lagos or any SW state, we will  send your back to your villages.

Haba, WE NIGERIAN SHOULD JOIN THIS MOVEMENT IF WE TRULY LOVE OUR NATION.
Omo yoruba na ni mi. egun-Awori

Note: the title should change from killing in the north = to killing by Boko haram

If they start the protest in Lagos, abuja, kaduna, kano etc, I would personally join and millions of other would INCLUDING YOU

Don't let this NL igbos make u dislike them. Majority of them don't think like Nchara and co.

Let join them and stop the killing of any citizen in Nigeria no matter the region they are in

Onlytruth:
They earmarked just N12 billion for starters. Is that not a pittance compared to what they steal?
C'mon! This is a GREAT idea.

Truly it is a great idea but we have no record of Nigerians themselves

u would be surprise how the system would be corrupt within months

people with jobs would say they have no jobs

some states would claim to have more unemployed gradutes than the whole Nigeria. thus collect more than what is allotted to them

etc

[quote author=~Bluetooth link=topic=847522.msg9978881#msg9978881 date=1326733840]Nigeria is no longer safe again as it has become another Abach regime where soldiers go on killing spree.Soldiers are brutalizing civilians as if we are in syria.Why did power get into this minority hand for God sake ?[/quote]as usual u are too quike to talk. Why not shut up and watch as events unfold.

Stop call anyone a minority. that is not a vocabulary in Nigeria.

Who is a majority ? and if they are why are their citizens still living below the poverty line.

Lets just keep shut and watch.

muami:
, But it was safe when your brother OBJ was busy bombing Odi, Umuechem etc?

Umuechem was by OBJ nothing pesin no go see for this site

Please go reseach on Umuechem and stop this lies, also Odi was were militancy started and they killed a soldier and OBJ as an ex military man did what he thought was right.

Go learn what happened OK

yes, but i think you'll need to post it on other threads as well.

would do so. thanks man

don't worry, Before your son get to our age Nigeria would have been great. Insha Allah

989900:
Thanks for the videos alh_harem

Never thought I'd cry for this country. . .that girl made me shed tears when she said "our parents have failed us" .  .  . . . .my boy who turns 6 today wondering why I'm crying. . .never knowing I was actually crying 'cause I wonder what the future holds for him as a Nigerian, even though he carries 2 passports by nature of his place of birth. . he's still Nigerian.

you are welcome brother. Do you see why I am so passionate about it.

I hope more people would see the 2 videos

It is a shame if we accept this new price. This punk of a president promised electricity by december 2011, have you seen any difference except for the first few days of the strike? Do not mistake this protest for that of the subsidy removal, it is a protest against corruption in high places. It is only unfortunate that Nigerians don't get the picture sometimes. Maybe because of the suffering and smiling syndrome we are suffering from but the real truth is that whether we like it or not these people 'government' do not have wards in Nigerian universities, no. if they did, no one of them would want their children to spend 8 years running a 4 year course, you tell me. They get feed in billions of our naira we only eat crumbs from their tables. They fly first class, we get stuck in traffic due to bad roads. At the end of the day our children don't get jobs, theirs is only a phone dial away even months before they graduate from harvard. Their children are also considered first for public offices before any of us or ours. I think our siddon look disease has eaten away the 'area' from Nija. Let us protest. Nija, Area!!! By the way I wap for those who have weak hearts towards the fight for justice. Don't get me wrong, I do want peace but justice must be done. Justice is not given, we gotta take it. Oyinbo dem dash us democracy, maybe na him put us where we dey. If to say we take am by force nobody for try this trash with our heads. If you decide to leave the oil cabals to enjoy their deeds unperturbed and you aim for the chikini naira in the pockets of innocent Nigerians, you have gone too far taking us for fools. Time to let everyone know the evil you guys do. Gadaffi didn't do this bad before he got the bullet. We will peacefully protest against the government. The handshake might reach our elbows later if we shake N97/litre in the hand.

we have not accepted the price o

palma:
People are not on the streets doesn't mean they've given up. Still Jona is loosing money. He can't drag peeps from their homes nau.

exactly

people should avoid the soldiers today. but it does not mean that he can force people out.

NINETOFIVE:
What an Irony, Nigerians are bullish, read all you wrote, you could say all you said without all the profanity, [b]if there is heaven no Yoruba would smel[/b]l , you lot curse a lot , your heart is wicked, some of us are actually disgusted with way guys talk.

he is not even yoruba

Beaf:
What do you think the jobs of your LG chairman and state governor should be doing? There is no reason why the 36 states should be dependent on the FG in a federal system.
This is why I called you a parasite earlier, you are happy with the status quo of dependency.

Yes of course there is no reason why LGC and SG should be dependent on the FG.

but if that is the reason why GEJ removed subsidy then I would expect the following to have been done not remove subsidy

1. Merge non viable states and LG together.

2. Diversify the economy a bit more by opening plantation of the various food crops each regions specializes in

3. explore other minerial resourses eg bitumens which is Nigeria (ondo, edo, ogun) has the third largest in the world after canada, russia and china, also coal in enugu and lead in bauchi

4. I would also have expected him to tell us about the port harcourt fertilizer company and how it would be able to keep up with the production since the country is going back to basics.

Those are the things I would have expected and I am sure millions of Nigerian too would have loved to here that. It seems to me it goes beyond fuel subsidy and cabals

It seems to me after reading the SURE program scheme and he just wants more allocations to the ND states and he did not know how to go about it, thus he brought out this deregulation thing

1.3 trillion, half of it goes to the governors

and quarter of the allocations goes to the ND states - 8 states

while the remaining quarter goes to all other nIgerian state.

200 billion of it is used by the FG to do something not clear

while the remaining half is used for the buses etc.

Buses which is also a form of subsidy. thus back to square one ain't we ?

PointB:
Gej will kick buhari as$ in any election organised today.

I seriously doubt that.

maybe you have forgotten how GEJ won the last one

Beaf:
I don't recall mentioning ethnicity on this thread.

you still have not answered the question

alj harem:
No sir I am not a parasite and neither were my forefathers. I have always wanted the country to diversify.

with that said, you have not answered the question and it has nothing to do with what you typed down.

Read again and answer

[size=14pt]I mean would it not be better to even diversify the economy rather than remove and yet still providing transport etc aka another form of subsidy if you ask me . Or isn't it BEaf ?[/size]

BetaThings:
Cabal WINS
Jonathan comes distant second
Nigeria loses embarrasingly

Fresh air delivered

Exactly when the so called cabals are also in the [size=13pt]economic team[/size] one would wonder who wins or who loses.

ebonino:
a crowd is gathering here in ojota,the protest is still on

I would advice you to tell the people to go home.

The soldiers would kill according to the order.

Beaf:
This is the typical response of a parasite. You want the best things in life without a drop of sweat, you are happy for mega corruption to continue, so long as your N65 wages for slavery is maintained. Even when you want to buy a car, you accept the pain, deprive yourself, save up and finally buy it.
Your type is not needed in a Nigeria thats in a hurry to develop.

No sir I am not a parasite and neither were my forefathers. I have always wanted the country to diversify.

what are you talking about ?

so helping us is by punishing the populist while the cabals walk free ?

BetaThings:
Please analyse how deregulation of the cement sector has reduced prices especially in relation to neighbouring countries

sorry but can I just add

he.she should explain how deregulation has reduced the price of fertilizers and diesel fuel. ?

apart from that, what is now the job of the FG apart from passing laws and getting paid ?

Beaf:
If GEJ had not told you about the cabals, would you have known about them?
It seems like whatever the man does, people are ready to hang him for some ulterior motive or the other. I don't think you can even begin to fathom the courage it has taken to pull the rug from underneath the cabal.

Its hard to understand how people can fight somebody that is helping them.

what are you talking about ?

so helping us is by punishing the populist while the cabals walk free ?

ojeffo:
All these yoroobas protesting even the new pump price as directed by our dear President[b] should be shot in d head at close range if sighted on d streets[/b] in d name of protests.BlO0dy Agberos! Ndi ara!!!!

haba, do u hate them that much. can anyone say the same to igbos ?

If that was GEJ speech and he actually follows it then I WOULD CALL HIM THE BEST PRESIDENT IN NIGERIA.

Surly he needs to sack Beaf, Reubin etc for making him look bad

those ideeiots have made GEJ look like a corrupt person. they have done more harm than good

Nope deltans DID NOT SUPPORT THE REMOVAL WITHOUT NECESSARY INFRASTRUCTURES IN PLACE WHICH IS WHY THE WHOLE COUNTRY PROTESTED AS WELL.

Don't let likes of beaf deceive you. Go to the streets of warri, asaba etc and ask them

Itsekiri, Isoko and Urhobo groups all protested and I brought out the links, pictures and videos of the protest.

Also I liek the idea of each region should support themselves

I wish GEJ can do that.

Onlytruth:
Chameleon in chief in action! hehehe

Alj_harem, Nigeria will not divide into more than three countries. Possibly two, PROBABLY THREE.
You can quote me on that!

Hmmmm eze ndigbo trust me I know what I am doing. I allowed Nchara and co to have their funny today because of the respect I have for dem_people, Ojukwu's memorial and Abagworo and co

Yes of course 3 Nations and the most peaceful would be the North followed by the west and lastly the east

you know the reason why the east is the last ?

short simple answers. GREED, ENVY AND TRIBALISM.

Ok let me give you some hints

Greed because The oil producing communties would turn greedy forgetting the bigger picture

Envy because Ijaws, Ibibio etc would like to speak their language and you Igbos would not allow that.

Tribalism even among Igbos themselves also Ijaws too.

What is uniting the Igbos - A common enemy aka the parasitic North and west

What is uniting the Ijaws - Same as the Igbos but also domination of others which has been stopped by the Itsekiris thanks to their Yoruba Edo cousins

Right now, if They want to play tribalism with people's livelihood then goodluck to that.

As you can see, there is already division in the South-south. Those that see the bigger picture and those playing tribalsiitic cards

Edo , warri, sapele, asaba all in delta state etc had one of the biggest protest

Even Asari the bigot can attest to that as u saw in his articule. Thus I can predicte that Edo and Delta are not following u in ur Biafra. That said, I really wish things can work out in Nigeria but it seems that Tribalism is better than corruption.

FYI, Gani adams was imprison for 2 years during OBJ era, I am yet to see Asari do the same.

Also Middle belt have made their stance clear by their protest.

BTW, kettykin, Dalover etc ARE ALL IGBOS PRETENDING TO BE WHATEVER GROUP THAT DO NOT EVEN UNDERSTAND THE LANGUAGE

0lumide:
Just leave the Itsekiris and all Edo groups out of your Niger Delta mess. Unsophisticated group of illiterates,  You are saying  we are not protesting boko haram but yous that claim to be most killed in the North ain't protesting either,  We know Boko Haram  ain't religious no more. It's a political mess with religious tone,  Edo ppl are mad at the killing of their kinsmen in the North, hence the killing in Edo which is an unsophisticated move,  But they have been making peace by bringing food etc to the affected people and that is what I call a sophisticated community.


The king of Benin is probably the most important leader in Nigeria right now,  Never played politics with the well being of his subjects,  You other folks are just a mess,  Nobody wants your Niger Delta banana republic. Just leave Itsekiris alone. Occupy your oil, we don't need it, we have our own just like you do,  All your oil wells that your so called Niger Deltans foolish leader have been financially occupying since the 80s,
9
Only Falana asked the FG to demand compensation  from the recent oil spill where were your divine leaders? Even Jonathan kept mute and they almost used propaganda to kill the news of the spill. Are you guys daft or what? Time after time Lagosians have risen against oppression in this nation and it always starts from Lagos,  How dare you monkeys accuse Lagosians protesting of tribalism,  You guys are such ungrateful downtrodden jerks and gun totting uncivilized freaks.

How easily have you paper soldiers forgotten how Jonathan got there? Wasn't it Lagosians that first took to the streets? You guys in the Niger Delta almost didn't voice anything out while some were even saying no,  The same South East that during the primaries worked against their new found alliance with Ss was against Jonathan's presidency because some Northerners promised them presidency,  A Nigeria where groups battle for political relevance was coming to an end and then Jonathan brought back the whole 1999 cartel under OBJ back to the table and we expect change? How of you folks successfully fought OBJ? In the West, we did, 

We are also tired of Nigeria, we just don't want a civil war hence why we want peace and good governance which is the only way we can negotiate our way out of this mess,  History is bound to repeat itself so things never really change for good in this country,  Instead of creating a new history, we instead act like we forgot history thereby forcing us to repeat it,  I want my people out!!

Once the cries in Lagos becomes that of breaking the nation, Nigeria is over,  We are trying to get political stability so no bloodshed or military intervention will be necessary,  Only good government can make division possible without bloodshed and Jonathan is trying to use chaos which is nothing but that which precedes  blood bath,  You think Itsekiris who are Yorubas want to be a part of you ND mess when Yorubas pack their bags? Think again,  You think Edo people and non Bini Edos want to join because of your silly oil? Think,  Again,  What happens to the Ogoni people? Yeah right,  Niger Delta my asss ,  Unsophisticated monkeys,

you see why i no like igbos on nl

when I was explaining to you back then, you thought they love you. Well think again bros

good luck with ur "former southern Nigeria" republic.

Once the "parasites" are gone, the new parasites would be yorubas of course instigated by the ibos

afterwards the ijaws would then develop a sweet mouth and called the ibos parasites too and declear secession of which it would be a bloody war

Just take a look at Niger-delta republic

Igbos claim to be Majority in the SS

Ijaws say no and claim majority

Ogoni say they are not even Niger-dleta

Itsekiri say they are yorubas anf thus the whole yoruba comes in

Edo say they are not Niger-delta

Ibibio, annag etc have nothing to do with Igbos because they cannot be trusted

End of alliance

Good luck bros.

ezeagu:
Now the kettle has finally reached whistling point, kindly change your location to a non-nyamaria state.

am sorry for the statement. Of course I was addressing Nchara and co

1stCitizen:
Majority of us ijaws see Asari and his cohorts as common criminals, oil thieves and terrorists with heads sunken in the depths of cowardice.

We joined the protests with other Nigerians to say enough is enough and these bastards speak only for themselves.

I hope you tell Nchara and other igbo ideeiot here to shut their mouth. Of course it has NEVER been about a SS president but a Nigerian president and because of that IBB, ABACHA, OBJ  are all kanuri, nupe and yoruba and are the most HATED NIGERIAN PRESIDENT TODAY by all ethni group and Nigerian

We need to stop all this pettiness and look beyond all this.
