Kalu Akanu:
Who is crying about Northern domination? All I hear is Yorubas and Middle Belt people saying they can do without the North.

While Igbos like myself can give a rat's arse.

So you don't complain about Igbo domination of property.

what!!!!!! just like the properties of igbos in jos today, where is it

Kalu Akanu:
You are a PUNK. The worse kind of PUNK. A person who talks a lot of crap, but when faced with someone who willing to crack your head, you would beg for mercy.

The governor of Akwa Ibom State, Chief Godswill Akpabio, has said the free education policy of the sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, was the fillip that gingered his administration’s efforts to tackle the educational challenges in the state.

Banking on the success of the administration in the areas of infrastructural development and enhancement of the people’s standard of living, the governor challenged critics of his administration and independent-minded assessors to visit the state to see things for themselves.

Akpabio, who was speaking at the Jogor Centre, Liberty Road, Ibadan, Oyo State, on Friday on the occasion of his investiture as the Tribune titles’ Man of the Year, said he decided to tackle militancy, insecurity and sundry social problems with free and compulsory education up to senior secondary level.

He lauded Chief Awolowo for pioneering free education in the country, saying that Akwa Ibom people were some of the beneficiaries of the programme, some of whom he said are now professors and highly respected citizens in their own right.

He also said that his free education pro-gramme was targeted at all children resident in the state irrespective of their state of origin.

According to the Akwa Ibom State helms man, ” I see a lot of relationships between the Tribune papers, its founders, Oyo State and Akwa Ibom State. The first celebrated policy of free education was in the then Western Region of Nigeria, and a lot of Akwa Ibom people also benefitted, particularly those that were in the then Ikeja, which was part and parcel of the Western Region. And many years after, we decided to also tackle the issues of militancy, the issue of insecurity, the issue of underdevelopment and all others with education.’’

Akpabio further said that the results obtained in the education sector so far had dwarfed his expectations. The governor stated that most of the young children in the state, who hitherto had no future by virtue of being born to underprivileged parents, now had a future, with the huge turnout and the rise in student population.

“By the time we started the compulsory and free education policy, we did not know that we were going to triple school enrolment. Today, schools are bursting with children; we have tripled school enrolment in less than two years in Akwa Ibom.

“We opened our free education policy in the state to all Nigerians, all Nigerian children resident in Akwa Ibom State. The only difference there is that we are doceeded, ‘’ he said.

ing it from primary school all the way to senior secondary school. And then, we also have a policy of paying subvention, N100 per child per term in the primary school to each headmaster and N300 per student per term to the school principal for logistics.

“That way, the question of not having money for chalk or other things did not arise. And we have abolished all fees; we pay WAEC fees of our children and I can tell you that over 600 children came from Gabon and other places. Some of them were travelling for child prostitution. So you can see what effect of lack of education had done to a lot of families,’’ he said.

While thanking the Tribune titles for the honour done to him, Akpabio said that the titles remained the best in the country in the area of investigative reporting, adding that their forthrightness, courage and readiness to tell the truth at all times had elevated journalism practice in the country and ensured that performing administrations in the country were duly recognised.

He urged the management of the company to keep the flag flying.

“In far away Oyo State, Tribune newspapers recognised our efforts in Akwa Ibom. I think that you are one of the best newspapers in the country. In terms of reporting, investigating and all that, no one can beat Tribune.

“In terms of forthrightness, in terms of telling the truth, no one can beat Tribune. I would say that Tribune is the longest surviving private newspapers in Africa. Tribune is still existing 61 years after it was established. I doff my heart for the originators of this project. I want to applaud the management of Tribune and plead with you to keep the flag flying.

“As a government, we will continue to identify with Tribune because you stand for the truth. Our prayer is that those who are now in charge of this family (Awolowo family) will keep this wonderful medium open for all Africans. Tribune must never be allowed to die,” he said.

Akpabio said that his achievements in office would stand the test of time.

According to him, “no matter how the opposition will try, the three major flyovers in Akwa Ibom inaugurated by the President Goodluck Jonathan will stand the test of time. My children that are now in school receiving education will remember our policy. The 204 new urban roads, 49 in Eket and dotting the landscapes are there for all to see.

“The five grand new hospitals that we completed are there for you to see. I will welcome you in a brand new Governor’s Lodge. If you are coming to Akwa Ibom, you are are going to land in one of the most fantastic runways in the country.”
Akpabio also lauded his fellow awardee, governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, for his efforts at tackling the rot in the banking system.

“When Mallam Sanusi started his revolution in the banking sector, many people misunderstood it. But the fact that today we are not panicking to withdraw our money will show clearly that he has succeeded, ‘’ he said.

I now c. . .seems like u have n[b]ever left d shores of naija b4 and u have somthing against nigerians in disapora. . .[/b]

you make me laugh, i have nothing against dispora people of nigeria

all i am saying is that,
1.) we nigerians that are aboard are annoying

2.) we believe we are the best maybe because of oil and the population

3.)all sort of crime is commented by nigerians in dispora (not that other countries do not do it) ; but it is a reflection of what we are in nigeria,,.,.,. imagine a nigerian caught for kidnapping in india just like in nigeria

and the list go on and on

otokx:
What are those Nigerians doing in SA; let them come back to their own country.

thank you oooo

na by force say make you travel

playmode:
U are right about that.   what a painful way to go!

It is the norm here ,almost every South African complain about our phone manners.What baffles is why some of us hold our cellphones with our elbows pointing sidways instead of downwards.I guess it is a new way of showing off that they are "BIG MEN"   .You can't mistake that loud baritone "GUY HOW FAR NOW,WETIN DEY HAPPEN?" anywhere in SA even from a 100 meters away

One South African once asked in his own word "bro ,why do Nigerians like fighting a lot?" ,I was like "excuse me?" .He said " I have noticed every time I see Nigerians talking either to someone or on their cell phone they are always fighting because they shout at the top of their lungs and you can the expression on their face that it is intense".

Needless to say i burst out in laughter and explained to him that that is how most Nigerians talk.   .The dude didn’t believe me, he said people don't talk like that unless they are fighting.

The SA police can easily spot a Nigerian because of they way most of them dress here.Their signature dress code is :

Office shirt with the two top buttons open to expose their hairy chest.
Un-bottoned blazer or Suit
Jeans or Trousers
Pointed Italian shoes (nicknamed by Nigerian as Nigerian shoes)
At least 2 gold chain and 2 gold rings
Big Gold or Silver watch
2 to 3 cellphone in their hands
Dark Sunglasses even at night
Toothpick in their mouths even when they had their last meal 10 hours ago]
Sometimes a walking stick with a red hat and feather

and to top it off ,they walk like something is stuck up their backside ,with their chest out and their arms spread apart like they are about to fly  

You see them hailing each other like : "Chairman sir", "Igwe" , "Chief chief" , "Honorable chair", "Odenigbo 1 of ojuoma local government" ," maga must pay","ezego" and all sorts or annoyingly ridiculous fake titles and nicknames which they have bestowed on themselves because they have some small change in their pockets.

What i can clearly see is that most of these guy are from the "village" with little or no education and absolutely no IQ (except for 419 and drugs)

and is that not annoying

if i am not a nigerian myself, i will dislike that attitude from people from that country

it is annoying

philip0906:
u should have asked what I meant rather than taking it p. . .The country makes money 4rm goods dat flow in2 their country 4rm across d border,make money 4rm taxes they impose on foreigners(which r extremely high) and we have d largest foreign population there,close d border and they r finished(it has happened b4). . .moreso,I have lived there 4 12years. . .

and so

so it means nigeria feeds them

if nigerians think they feed them, then they should stop feeding them because of some nigerian (mostly igbos) traders were deported.

nigerians should stop acting like they are they gaint of africa when they clearly are not

look, this is just the beginning of nigeria citizens many more suffering is still going to happen to nigerian citizens in dispora unless they come home and do something about it

nigeria i laugh in igbo

1.) it is not SA police but the nigerian government that have given them the go a held to kill him

2.) 90% of nairalanders are in dispora thus 2nd even 3rd class citizens in another mans country

3.)why will any country allow nigerians to destroy it for them,.,.,.,.,.,.,

4.) i remember weeks ago were a nigerian was kidnapping in india,,,i mean c,mon

5.) SA is non of Nigerians business and vice versa. because our government can not even find the person that killed bola ige,.,.,. it shows the level of intelligence's our leader or should i say people have.
i mean 2011 we even still talking of zoning"""hisses"" nigeria is just pathetic i tell ya

While it is sad for any human being to lose their  life in this manner.    We have to take a careful look at the circumstances. I happen to visit the turffontein area on a regular bases because there is a Nigerian restaurant there where I normally get my weekly dose of egusi ,ogbono, oha, bitter leaf soup and jollof rice. Turffontein has been turned in to a drug dealing cesspool by Nigerians. You see them on almost every street corner peddling their trade in broad day light. The have ruined many peoples lives with their trade, school children in that area especially Forest Hill High and Turffontein High no longer attend classes. I see them buying drug from these Nigerians and some of the Nigerians even sleep with these underage girls from the highs schools and offer them drugs as payment. I was not “told” about this , this is what I see every time I go there.    It make me feel bad and I do not blame South Africans when they show their hatred towards us. There are many other African immigrants there but you don’t see them getting arrested by the police because they stay away from crime. It is only my Nigerian brothers that you will see committing crime in broad day and walking with their shoulders in the air and their signature pointed Italian shoes, screaming at the top of their lungs on their cellphone like they own the world. You can spot a drug dealing Nigerian a mile away just from his attitude and posture.    Nigerians more or less brought the bad name they have in SA upon themselves.

That being said I have not ruled out the possibility of this being a Nigerian Government ordered hit. Knowing how demonic our politicians are , it is quite possible that this guy was targeted because of his affiliations with okah.

But come to think of , knowing how wealthy Okah is ,I doubt anyone working for him will be residing in an area like turffontein which is a crime hotspot. He is a smart guy ,I don’t think he would want his men to be in an area that attracts the police. Then again I could be wrong.

[size=30pt]My question is why did he run if he was not guilty?[/size]


As for the Nigerian Embassy ,I wonder why you guys are complaining.    Some of you here are vouching for Jonathan and the PDP to continue to enslave Nigerians but here you are complaining about Nigerian embassy. Please stop complaining, you get and deserve what you vote for, plain and simple.    kapish!

gbammm

most sensable commit so far

philip0906:

no we can not get alone after the yorubas have treathen our igbo existence

Obiagu1:
Don't cover up. You're only deceiving yourself.
Some men keep women picture while you, eku -bear, keep men picture. Pathetic. I've seen that you tribalist are frustrated gay men and disgusting individuals.

no kill oooo

Kalu Akanu:
And I have been in this area for a while. I can testify what I have seen with my two eyes. It is all good. Efik women are the best though. You haven't been banged, unless you been banged by an Efik woman.

Too bad most of you Yoruba would never have that luxury.

what!!!!!
are they no efik women in lagos and abuja were hausa and yoruba are there, what are u talking about

Kalu Akanu:
Have you ever seen a single Igbo man?

The fact remains that the ratio between men and women in Igboland is not equal. For every Igbo man, there are like 3 women.

It is not that Igbo women chase after Yoruba men, it is a fact that Yoruba men chase after Igbo women.

Have our excess women? There are too many of them.

sorry i think you should face the topic

this is not a yoruba vs igbo trend

seriouslyt]seroiusly, you guys have to be joking,,, yoruba vs igbo again very funny[/size]

Kalu Akanu:
Yoruba people and their jealousy. There kissed by the Sun arses would love to look like an Igbo. That is the sad thing. In terms of appearance, Yoruba are ranked below everyone.
