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:

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

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

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.

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

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.

[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]

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.

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.

Nchara:
Wow! Wow!! Wow!!!

So much hate.

Yes there is HATE FOR YOU AND UR LIKES. you igbos on NL tribalise everything like goats

even ur leaders act childish and silly like you all. what a shame.

Infact I should not even be dragged into this rubbish with u. I am done here

donigspain:
@Alj harem,  I don't allow myself to be drawn into vulgar virtual wars plz. Sorry to disappoint you. BTW, I now see you have got lots of time on your hand. No wonder you have a catalog of anti-Igbo literatures where u simply rush in to copy and paste for us here in NL. My humble advice: Get a life!, No offense meant pleaseeeee.

what anti-igbo ? ani't you anti-Nigerian ?

what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander .

ideeiot nyamaria animal.

merengue:
You tribalistic buffoons on Nairaland are so unintelligent, it makes me laugh. OBJ was president for 8 years, his people voted for him massively, what did they get: a big fat nothing. Same goes for the people of Katsina (Buhari, Yar'adua), Kano (Abacha), Niger (IBB, Abubakar) and the same will happen with GEJ. None of these people even transformed their villages, they were too busy stealing for themselves and their families.[size=13pt] I hope and pray an Igbo person becomes president in 2015 so we can all finally see that tribe is irrelevant,[/size] all Nigerian politicians are bastard children of the same accursed parents. Asari rides state of the art SUVs, has he ever built a borehole for his people? Forget all these people, everybody is fighting for himself. We have all had governors who stole and did nothing, so if they become presidents tomorrow, should we defend them senselessly or look at issues objectively? With all the money that Obj stole, the road to his schoosl is still so horrible, go to Yar'adua's village, you wont believe it ever produced a president. IBB spends all his time in Minna, have no idea where he comes from but I am sure its an eyesore. GEJ was deputy governor, governor, vice-president and now president, has Otueke become Dubai? Lets dump these issues of tribalism and ethnicity, it only favours the politicians and their cronies, it does nothing for us.

Yes of course we the people know.

[size=14pt]Why Do Igbos Always Go Looking For Trouble?

Written by  Ozodi Osuji Ph.D Imo state[/size]

INFERIORITY FEELING

I am saying that Igbos go looking for trouble because of their sense of inferiority and paranoid level of compensatory superiority (according to Alfred Adler, all human beings feel inferior and compensate with some superiority feeling and quest for power over their world,  but the neurotic over does it).

DEATH WISH (OR FREUD’S THANATOS)

It is as if these people have a death wish and must attack other people so as to generate other people’s counter attacks on them, and when attacked they feel persecuted hence feel alive. The pathological ego feels alive when persecuted!

The paranoid person feels alive when he feels attacked and is defensive; if not feeling attacked and persecuted and defensive he does not feel like he is alive!

The paranoid person has not yet learned that a person can feel even more alive by loving himself and those around him. If you want to truly feel alive do what loves other people and what serves people’s interests.

The alternative to Christian agape love for all people is the paranoid attacks on people that generate counter attack for him and he gets attacked and in defending his self feels falsely alive.

For the longest time I could not quite understand this oddity in many Igbos behavior. Finally, I understood it. They engage in their apparent self-defeating behaviors because of mental disorder. They suffer mass delusion disorder (follies adieu, aka group paranoia).

The deluded person takes his private interpretation of reality as reality. He wants to seem superior and powerful, which he is not; he imagines that he is superior and powerful; believes what is not true as true hence is deluded.

The mentally ill person is not operating in the real world; he is living in his personal world, his fantasy world where he is all powerful and invincible.

The sadist part of it all is that even if you understand the dynamics of what is going on in the deluded person’s head and tell him about it he does not get it and continues doing what he does that gives him certain results and continues to get the same results while expecting different results.

Igbos insult other people, make them angry; they get attacked and or killed. They do not want to be attacked and killed; that is, they want different results but they keep doing what generates the old results and get it. This is the definition of mental disorder: doing the same thing while expecting different results. An alcoholic keeps drinking but does not expect to damage his liver and health; poor soul; as long as he is addicted to his drug of choice he must be slowly damaging his liver, brains and killing himself even though he wishes to be healthy and live.

I know that these people are not going to change for part of mental disorder is not to see what is obvious to the normal person. The normal person, as if instinctively, recognizes that if you insult folks that they would be angry at you and that some of them would attack you, but these bizarre folks keep attacking others (by insulting them) and not expecting them to counter attack them in self-defense.

They do not know what they are doing and one is wasting one’s time trying to get them to recognize the obvious.

I suppose this is my mission: to keep stating the obvious until those who wear blinders finally remove their veil and see it; remove the mask over their eyes and see reality as it is. I will never give up on them after all they are my people, and attacks on them, even if self-brought, are attack on me (when folks begin attacking or killing Igbos they will attack or kill me, too). The sins of fathers are visited on their children’s heads. Therefore, I must keep trying to help them smell the coffee and roses.

A FINAL WORD ON OBI NWANKAMA’S PRETENSIONS

Obi Nwankanma, apparently, is writing history, make belief history of Igbos. He has been talking smack about Nri as core Igbos (obviously a self-serving claim). His idiotic talk is irritating me. One of these days I would unleash my fury at him. I generally allow annoying things to simmer for a while and when I become sufficiently angry I unleash a ferocious attack and will keep attacking and nothing would stop me.  By and by I will take Obi Nwakanma up and attack to destroy his pretensions.

These clowns write 419 histories that make their people the head of Igbos while ignoring the obvious, that the core of Alaigbo is Owerri.  When I have some time I will do rigorous research on Igbo history and then refute their make believe history (I just read Elizabeth Isichie‘s version of Igbo history; she is not pretentious and haughty; she honestly believed what she wrote; she is a scholar, not a propagandist pretending to be a scholar).

For now let me just say that it is irritating to one to see those who are not even fully Igbos to keep talking as if they are real Igbos and worse present themselves as the leaders of Igbos (they were influenced by surrounding non-Igbo folks; the real Igbos are in core Igbo land, in the Igbo heartland, Owerri/Orlu axis. (Owerri must eventually become the capital of one unified Alaigbo state in Nigeria or Alaigbo republic should Nigeria breakup).

The time allotted to foreigners, such as Onicha/Edo folk, rule over Igbos is over.

Most history books are written as songs of praises to the people they are written about hence are hardly objective. That been said, if one is writing a history of one’s entire people one ought to make an honest attempt to be fairly objective rather than write claptrap that sings the praises of one section of the people. Just imagine it: everyone knows that Owerri is the core Igbo but clowns from non-Owerri area pretend to write Igbo history and not give central place to Owerri.

Even the much maligned white colonial folk recognized that Owerri is core Igbo hence made Owerri dialect the central Igbo dialect in their books on Igbo language. But buffoons from non-Owerri area write as if their peripheral areas are central to Igbo history and in their idiocy expect Owerri folks to accept their nonsense.  Why, it is supposed to be Igbo history and every Igbo ought to accept it even if it is a bunch of lies.

When I am free to pay attention to history I will descend on these clowns like a ton of hot coal. Their contrived, 419 scam history of Igbos cannot be allowed to stand.
