[quote author=EzeUche_ link=topic=602310.msg7701810#msg7701810 date=1297297025]Mehn Beaf knows how to fight back.

I like this new and improved Beaf. He comes back swinging! 

If Beaf is a representative of his people, I wouldn't mind having them as allies. He keep on attacking and doesn't give a dammn who is watching! [/quote]obviously, ever easterner wants port-harcount and ijawland

ezeuche you are funny you know

^^^^^


typical

Gbawe:
Indeed.  He is one resilient chap and I am sure GEJ and Tony Anenih are very proud of him. One can even grudgingly admire his resilience in the same way we all had no choice but to bow to "comical Ali's" shameless propaganda while Iraq was falling around him and the American soldiers were virtually holding the microphone he was speaking into.

gbawe, beaf is either related to GEJ or he will benefit from GEJ being the president

[size=28pt]one form or the other, beaf has a connection to GEJ

i know that for a fact

can you remember when beaf said that most nairalanders are ethnocentric because they are related to the elites

well beaf is one[/size]

Beaf:
Yeah! I'm a battle formation! NNS Aradu! Approach with caution!

you try

i respect your resilience

fstranger3:
BTW, just so you know, you are doing a great job

PS: Where do I go for my own bag of rice or abi na fifty thousand I deserve?

chineke mia ooooo

well carry on

^^^^^

hmmmmm

chai!!!!

[size=28pt]everyone on beaf like this

beaf is battling on 6 threads simultaneously[/size]

Beaf:
Everybody knows you are a bigot, so live with it.
As for the lies, I've challenged you to back up each and every claim you've made on this thread, because they are ALL lies, but we both know you can't; shame. What part of that is difficult to understand?
Bigots always make big claims and statements they can never back up.

Are you related to the drug baron, Tinubu by any chance? why so touchy about his drugs?  

says who

fstranger3:
I agree with you to a great extent. Not everything GEj did nor say is right. However, of issue here is his position. It doesnt matter who occupied the post, the post should be respected as the highest post in the land. The President is seen to many a school children as a role model, an honest person, the father to all, the #1 person in the country, and everyone else, either directly or indirectly is below him. And, the Governors, in a way, work for him. Any attempt to discredit his candidacy, undermine his influence or ridicule his person should be rebuked by any and all sane person because any tarnish to the post is an assault on our collective sensibility as a nation.

Irrespective of our view, we need to always have someone in charge, and that person needs to be seen as capable. Any attempt by people like Fashola and his ilks, no matter how popular,to  ridicule the office is an attempt at inviting chaos to the polity secondary to rendering the office ineffective. What Fashola has done, an act of gross insubordination to a superior, is akin to a junior officer disobeying the commands of a senior officer, an offense punishable by death in certain parts of the world.

What lesson is Fashola trying to pass to the millions of school children in Lagos, that anytime their teachers mis-speak, it is their right, not to politely correct their teachers, but to ridicule them and aggressively embarrass their teachers any way possible. I am sure that is not the kind of behavior you want inculcated in your kids.

Lets call a spade a spade, Fashola's behavior is reprehensible and should be condemned by all.

no fstranger, if there should be respect for the president or if the president is seen as number 1 in the country, then he should act like one not calling your opposition party rascals

although i understand what you mean but respect is earn not demanded anywhere in the world even nigeria

we can not cloud our mind that he is the president and deserve to be respect so he will not be rebuked.

as fashola clearly said, no electricity, bad federal roads etc and yet he has the mouth to call someone that has built lagos form the slums (tinubu government) to the envy of the country and even africa.

respect is earn.

Abagworo:
Imagine the rubbish some people are writing.Saying that Onitsha is one of the richest States in Igboland and Abia,Ebonyi and Enugu people are paupers.This is why I keep telling you people that there is nothing like a single Igbo ethnic group.I still wonder where the so-called money is.

By Our reporter

Thursday, February 10, 2011





“The office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is a very high office and I don’t think that that kind of language coming from the PDP presidential candidate is presidential. But Lagosians will have to make a determination but we are beginning to see clearly the pattern of the candidacy of the PDP candidates who seek to continue to lead this country into poverty, into inefficiency, into insecurity.

And it is interesting that these remarks are being made from outside Lagos , so I hope that when they come here they would be able to call us rascals again. And if we are rascals, it means that some of the other governors they have been presiding over is a republic of rascals. But I leave him to decide his own choice of words. Why should they be worried about our success in Lagos?

If it gives them sleepless night and it makes them uncomfortable, I make no apologies that is why I am in government. But having said that, I think that I have asked myself whether the President is more concerned about who is Governor of Lagos or about becoming President. I think that if the PDP wants to swap candidates for the Governor of Lagos, I will be ready to face him because his candidate is not talking about what he wants to do in Lagos . And I will leave our own presidential candidate on issues that are germane to Nigerians”, he stated.
Fashola, who also took time to assess the PDP-led government of Nigeria for 12 years, pointing out that Lagos appears to have felt the federal presence the least.

He queried: “Why are the federal roads in Lagos have not been fixed? Why do Lagosians not have electricity? Why should Lagosians bear the cost of their own security in spite of the enormous votes for that every year in the federal budget? These are the issues that concern Lagosians and those are the issues about which their votes will be deployed. The Lagos voters will not vote on the basis of luck. I didn’t win this office on the basis of luck, it was won on the basis of very clear manifesto of the ACN, very clear ideas about how to fix this economy, very hard work that we have done since 1999 as a people, progressives who have shown our common touch with the people.

Elections will not be won by resulting to derogatory language and by claiming luck. Elections require those who seek elective offices to focus on the people over who they plan to exercise authority and to communicate to them in a very clear and practical manner how they intend to improve their lot. I think that the PDP led federal government has a lot of questions to answer in Lagos .”

KnowAll:
@ here am I insisting Dangote has nothing to fear running for d Governor, yet some  is going on about if an Igbo man is appointed d minister for Abuja dat there would be mayhem in Abuja, is Abuja not meant to be no-mans-land, d indigenious were re-located & compensated adequately y would d north now start fighting over a northern region dat has been defunt since 1967.

who said anything about fight here

all i am saying is that your so called no-mans-land has men in them that are indigenous to the your no-mans-land

because you are not a proper lagosian so i will not listen to you

you have no right,,.,. i repeat no right to tell any state you are not indigenous to, to accept another candidate just because a small town in the state (lagos island) was the formal captital.

jason123:
They too like to dey compare themselves to yorubas too much, HABA!

and who you want them to compare with hausa

manny4life:
You answered your own question, he enjoys division, sounds traibalistic from some of his threads if you ask me.

me sound tribalistic  far from it

i love igbo, yoruba and every other group in nigeria

i am half igbo half kanuri, why will i hate any southerner


i love my nigeria people and southerner,.,.,., but the question is do they love me ? NO they don't

so why will i say let there be an igbo governor in a northern state when he has not gone to his state and develop it not to talk of mine.

lets be realistic here, let everyone stay at there tent

No offense, but he seems to be a lil   from all his post on some threads I've seen.

jason123:
Embarrassed because of what? If I may ask. The guy enjoys division.

no no no

i enjoy unity but i will be willing to unite once the southerners see us as brothers but not as backward people

i have always asked myself, what make southern nigeria forward but still no answer

Tsiya:
The gov't is trying. I can attest to that. However the elite do not like it. Simply because the almajiri brings an immediate source of cheap labour and gratification for the wealthy for giving out alms as part of religious obligations.

One of the reasons why Buhari is hated by the elites as well as most religious leaders was banning of the almajiri system in 1984. I remember then Buhari didn't even waste time to try to placate them or dish out free money. Being a good Muslim, he knows it is the responsibility of the parents and the rights of a child for the parents to provide him/her with accommodation, food, education and train him/her untill puberty. It is against the tenets of Islam to send a child to beg for alms, food etc.

Personally I think the Federal government shouldn't have gone down to wasting resources in building special quranic schools. The Federal Government should have gone ahead and implement the laws in the Nigerian constitution.

First, it is the responsibility of local governments to provide primary eduction, and each local government collects federal allocation, and therefore they should dedicate part of their budget for providing universal education for their children based on the requirements of their society. If states government in the north can implement sharia legal systems, they should be able to incorporate Islamic education in their curriculum at primary and secondary schools level. After that, any parent or individual that want to further their education in Islamic studies, they should do it either in the University or private seminary schools. This is how it is done even in majority Islamic nations. There are no almajiri in Saudi, Malaysia or Indonesia.

The almajiri programme is purely lack of understanding the fundamental rights of children. Child maintenance should be made compulsory. No child should be allowed to beg for food on the street.

gbamm

you are right on that

Northerners love blood sha[/quote]dapo, it is not about loving blood,.,. no no no far from it

it is about principles,

i mean if you yorubas can take it, we northerners will not accept it

fact!!!!!!!

if you yorubas want an igbo or northern governor in your states, that is fine by me and most northerners

but in a northern state you can not bring meritocracy to us and expect us to say yes, we are one nigeria and you can rule us,.,. NO

until southerns love us then there will be no southern ruler in the north,., at least until the whole nigeria accept sharia law

we northerners are not stu.pid like the yorubas that accepted eze ndigbo,., no no no

we know igbos do not like us but want to rule us,.,.,. we can see right through them like clear oil

wait and see

KnowAll:
@Ali harem,

That is why Abuja keeps on having that in-effective minister. They should have a mayor, & I can gurantee u in a fair election d Igbos would carry d day.

in-effective you say when was abuja built and how many years did it take abuja to be built ?

igbos will take abuja i do not think you are serious at all

what is the % of igbos in abuja compare to even igala people not to talk of fulani, yoruba, hausa and kanuri

just because a miniter said they own 70% of the land in abuja does not mean 70% is igbo all this is just to appeal the igbos to invest in abuja just like benue, lagos and port harcount

kownall, you need to know your facts right.

think of this way, lagos said 40% of it's population is igbo

abuja said 70% is igbo

firstly, if 40% of lagosians are igbo, how many are ijaw,., maybe 5%, hausa/fulani/kanuri about 10-15%, edo about 5%, itsekiri and other eastern minority about 10 %, middlebelt around 5%, then what is the population of yorubas in lagos then are you saying yorubas are about 20-30% then.,.,. okay if right how come a yoruba man keeps winning the election in lagos from local government to state

now about abuja

if 70% is igbo, then the remaining 30% is for the WHOLE country to share(efik, kanuri, hausa, fulani, yoruba, igala, beroms, ijaws etc) does that sound reasonable to you

how many igbos are in abuja apart from the politicians, very rich family, students and small percentage of federal workers

do you think that is enough for them to win a miniteral position in abuja,.,., certainly not

infact, yorubas have more chance in abuja than igbos,.,., because most military men and federal workers in abuja are yoruba and hausa people

all this is a game to make igbos invest oin abuja just like they do in yorubaland,.,.,.,.,,.,. it is all a show,.,. believe me

if you are not sure, go to abuja, and ask jonathan to appoint an igbo miniter of abuja without the support of the north and see how nigeria will turn to a waste land of died people within a short space of time

Odunnu:
Na wa o

don't mind them

how was your day ? hope it went well

not in the north all the time

we rotate the power positions evertime

KnowAll:
@ Alj harem

it may intrest u to know Lagos city council or colony of Lagos was once led by an Igbo man called zik all  those irrelevant litrature u posted are un-neccessary. U just want to de-enfrachise at least 16 million lagosians from exercising their rights to seek political office. Mind u d 16  million figure includes Yorubas from d countryside" awon aro oke"

i know, even there was an igbo military governor of lagos at one time

to avoid farcars and conflict, let everyone stay were Allah has put them,.,. i do not want to go to lagos in 2020 and see that they are killing northerners because of power from dangote as you suggested.

let ever one just have a mutual respect for the indigenes and people leaving in that city.

like now why not suggest that there should be an igbo or yoruba miniter of FCT (abuja),.,. no it will not happen because it is a northern state

but you can agrue that abuja is a no-mans land ,., yes but no,., because when the time is right the owners of the land will get it back

so is lagos,., and i am warning you now not to sell you birth right because 20 years down the line, i do not want to hear yorubas are the new beroms or yorubas are the new ijaws fighting for there land. well all in all you are not important (i mean 1 yoruba out of millions)just like victor banjo

enough said

@knowcow

how can you explain a man that can not even run for his state(kano) to rule other people's state. Can he even run in borno state,.,.,.,.,. NO

secondly, do you even know the history of lagos

how can you at your age say lagos was made by the FG,.,. it just shows how ignorant and silly you are

quote

Lagos State was created on May 27, 1967 by virtue of State (Creation and Transitional Provisions) Decree No. 14 of 1967, which restructured Nigeria’s Federation into 12 states. Prior to this, Lagos Municipality had been administered by the Federal Government through the Federal Ministry of Lagos Affairs as the regional authority, while the Lagos City Council (LCC) governed the City of Lagos. Equally, the metropolitan areas (Colony Province) of Ikeja, Agege, Mushin, Ikorodu, Epe and Badagry were administered by the Western Region. The State took off as an administrative entity on April 11, 1968 with Lagos Island serving the dual role of being the State and Federal Capital. However, with the creation of the Federal Capital Territory of Abuja in 1976, Lagos Island ceased to be the capital of the State which was moved to Ikeja. Equally, with the formal relocation of the seat of the Federal Government to Abuja on 12 December 1991, Lagos Island ceased to be Nigeria’s political capital. Nevertheless, Lagos remains the center of commerce for the country.


Since its creation in 1967, the state has been administered either by a governor and a House of Assembly in civilian or quasi-civilian (under Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida's administration) federal administrations, or by Sole-Administrators or Military Administrators in military dispensations . Since December 2007, Yoruba has been the second official language of debate and discussion for the House of Assembly after English.

can dangote speak yoruba !!!!! ode

was lagos not under the western province apart from lagos island which had the federal government

lagos was built from cocoa from ekiti state and lagos island was from the federal government

the only thing the fedral government did was to built 3rd mainland, 1004 estate which is sold now to a friend, federal sectratat, miltary bar,., , and government houses

bas.tard, what happens to this people

While the State is essentially a Yoruba-speaking environment, it is a socio-cultural melting pot attracting both Nigerians and foreigners alike.
Indigenous inhabitants include the Aworis and Eguns in Ikeja and Badagry Divisions respectively, with the Eguns being found mainly in Badagry.
There is also an admixture of other pioneer settlers collectively known as the Ekos.
The indigenes of Ikorodu and Epe Divisions are mainly the Ijebus with pockets of Eko-Awori settlers along the coastland and riverine areas.

mumu, fashola was a proper lagosian, he is an awori from ise eko

do you even know who awori and egun are,.,. ode


Lineage

Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN) is a descendant of the patriarch of the Fashola family, Alfa Bello Fashola of Princess Street in Isale Gangan, Lagos. On the Fashola family tree, he is the great grandson of Bello Fashola, a philanthropist and a very close friend of Esugbayi Eleko, who contributed morally and financially to the struggle to return Esugbayi Eleko to Lagos after the Oba's banishment from his kingdom by the then colonial government. Bello Fashola had 137 children with Tiamiyu Bashorun Fashola as the eldest child. The direct linkage is as follows: Bello Fashola begat Tiamiyu Fashola, who begat Raji Olayinka Fashola, who begat Ademola Fashola who begat Babatunde Raji Fashola.
He is also linked to Isale Eko through his paternal grandmother who is a direct descendant of the Shomade/Bashua family of Obun Eko and Suenu chieftaincy family house. His paternal great, great grandmother was Jarinatu Okunnu from Isale Eko Onilegbe family whilst his maternal great grandmother is from Idumagbo Isale Eko of the Suenu Chieftaincy family.


do you think dangote a business man will do this

The crucial part of the mega city project is the rehabilitation of Lagos' infrastructures and districts. Formerly taken care of by the federal government, they were immediately neglected, as Abuja was declared Nigeria's new capital since 1991.[9] According to Lagos Rail Mass Transit, proposed light railways will be consisted of the outskirt blue-line and inner red-line destinations.[11] As part of the project, the Badagry Expressway, which links Lagos directly to the south-eastern border of Benin Republic, is currently being rehabilitated by various contractors,[12] with BRT and railway networks being established.

Kobojunkie:
This is NOThing to do with Nigerian authorities but Anambra State Authorities.


@Poster, this news, and many others before it, goes to confirm how not so popular this group MASSOB, are with the people. That 200 members were rounded up and the barely any peep from the People of Anambra, goes to show the movement is yet to even get itself recognized in that state. I will go as far as to say that the same sort of silence will probably be witnessed in other states if MASSOB members in those states are rounded up.
