Thanks for the laugh Chyz. @ "Nigeria's for everybody"

Anyway, why are people getting on Aloy's case, when he's in fact correct?

Don't mind them. Illiteracy and ethnic paranoia is worrying them all.

jason12345:
@ aloy-emeka

the way you think is a bit strange. for instance, tinubu is not a logosian yet he was the governor. also, rotimi amechi is not pure ibibio or whatever yet he is the governor. an igbo man (forgotten his name) was the commissioner of works in lagos. a yoruba woman was the governor of adamawa.

You are crazy; Tinubu is not Lagosian?; Did you swallow ganja seeds today?. There are no indegenous Ibibios from Rivers state and if you claim to be Deltan, you should know that more than anybody. Rotimi Amechi is Igbo from Rivers state. It only becomes a news if he rules Bayelsa state. Go and study your social studies.

You are an Indigene of Maiduguri or Borno or whichever state Kanuris reside an dit doesn't matter if you were born and bred in Lagos for the last 45 years of your life. If you doubt me, go and seek for gubernatorial elections in Imo or Oyo states. These Igbo men are making Ezeuche type of noise, if they claim more than their physical presence in Ibadan, Akala will set thugs after them.

if an igbo man or woman is born or lived in a particular place for a prolong period of time are wouldn't they come the indigene of that place

can u tell me that igbos in lagos or kaduna are claiming those states just because they live there

Not according to Nigerian constitution. You've stayed too long in America, bro. An Ekiti political thug will not even venture to run for governorship in Ondo state even though he was born and bred in Akure and when he was born, the two states were one BUT they will never let him rule over them on those grounds.

jason12345:
weren't some yorubas saying this some few months ago? did they say anything about CLAIMING igbo land? my brother, its all about integration which i most people do not mind!

They were asking for a FREE piece of land in Enugu and allocation of government appointments because they believe their population is big enough to receive such concession but they never claimed to be indigenes.

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=566779.msg7318094#msg7318094 date=1292120326]They're not "taking over".
This is why you'll never have Igbos and Yorubas unite when you have imbe ciles like Aloy.Emeka misinterpreting diplomacy.
Of course the title is going to cause raucous between the two groups. This is Aloy's main goal on NL. What a shame.[/quote]I don't argue with teenagers especially the one who recently lost her bed mate to assailants in Chicago.

alj harem:
can u tell me how igbos are claiming oyo state,pls

When they said they are indigenes of Oyo state and not non-Indigenes, what does that mean to you?. DUH.

Question: Is Igbos not claiming Oyo state when they claim to be indigenes?. Inability to comprehend English is the problem here.

Conflict is a fact of daily existence among families, communities, states, countries, individuals and social groups. Whether between siblings or strangers, what matters most, is the management of conflict and disagreement. Experienced elders always strive hard to prevent its escalation whenever it manifests itself.

L-R:Chiefs Duru, Igboanugo, Obi, Ifeanyiaka and comrade Okoli



http://odili.net/news/source/2010/dec/10/516.html

The Igbo nation has always believed in the principle of dialogue as a means of settling conflicts and arriving at an amicable and lasting solution to issues. Ndigbo Ibadan in the true spirit of Igbo oneness (Ofu-Obi), endeavoured like noble men to repair their relationship and move as one strong indivisible force.

This is courtesy of the South East Council of Traditional Rulers led by its chairman Eze Cletus Ilomuanya, that proscribed the two factional Igbo associations in Ibadan, Igbo Community Development Association (ICDA) and Igbo Community Oyo State (ICaS) alongside the Eze Ndigbo in the Diaspora title, during arecent visit to the community.

The action brought the already torn apart Igbo Community in Ibadan, together via amicable resolution thereby put an end to the 13-year leadership tussle. The two factions are now one and stronger than ever under a new generally accepted body, Igbo General Assembly (IGA), with Mr. Felix Igboanugo as president-general. It is regrettable that Ndigbo who are one of the major contributors in commerce and industry, second largest community in Oyo State, are lacking behind in governance of the state due to crisis. I therefore enjoin Ndigbo Ibadan to live up to expectation by doing those things that would not only uplift the association alone, but the state as a whole.

Now that the election is around the corner, you must help to defuse the suspicion between the Igbo and their hosts by refusing to pay allegiance to B when your host community is moving to A. Our culture as Igbo resident in Oyo State is the state first. So, support government programmes geared towards creating a stable and viable state.

Come out of your shells and partake in the democratic programme. We must register during the voters’ registration exercise and make sure you vote for the right candidate, in order for Ndigbo to be able to take their proper position in the state. Always respect the customs and traditions of your hosts and the community where you find yourself will show its appreciation.

Follow the path of trust instead of distrust. Follow the path of understanding instead of interference. Follow the path of cooperation instead of separation. See your host as your brother instead of your landlord. By doing this, your mind and that of your family will be at rest. This will also lead to the development of yourself and the community you are resident, which can only lead to a healthier Igbo community and Oyo State. I equally thank Ndigbo Ibadan, Oyo State, for their courage to say no to disunity. Most importantly, the peaceful manner in which Chief Aloy Okwudilichukwu Obi, was elected the Onyendu Ndigbo Oyo State, on May 8, 2010. I envy you, for following the path of unity and peace as requested by the South East royal fathers.

• ’Used vehicles hurt economy’




http://odili.net/news/source/2010/dec/10/503.html

“The Federal Government seems to be more focused on short term goal of earning more revenue than the implications of its action on industrialization, economic activities, employment and vision 20:20:20”.

Last week’s extension of the age limit for used vehicles imported into the country from eight to 15 years by the Federal Government, has continued to draw the ire of stakeholders in the Nigerian auto industry, including the Nigerian Automotive Manufacturers Association.

In a statement issued in Lagos, NAMA, which is an association of all vehicle companies, like the older PAN Nigeria Limited and ANAMMCO, as well new comers like Innoson in Nnewi, argued that the negative impact of the policy shift on the economy will outweigh the short term benefits.

Signed by the Executive Director, Mr Arthur Madueke, statement said: “The Federal Government seems to be more focused on short term goal of earning more revenue than the implications of its action on industrialization, economic activities, employment and vision 20:20:20”. It, therefore, called for stricter control of the inflow of the vehicles.

Government’s new position on the importation of used vehicles was made known last week when the Finance Minister, Olusegun Aganga, announced that the second-hand automobiles would continue to come into the country provided they are not older than 15 years. Hitherto, the age limit for imported used car was 8 years while there was none for commercial motor vehicles.

The effect, Madueke remarked, had been the importation of motor vehicles, which could no longer satisfy the emission standards in their countries of origin, and which now add to Nigeria’s environmental problems as well as drain the resources which would been invested in other enterprising sectors, with high yield returns on employment and rapid industrialization.

This has always been the stand of the local auto industry stakeholders, who have over the years decried the influx of the used vehicles like cars, buses and trucks – a situation which, according to them has contributed to the woos of the manufacturers, apart from the implication on the economy generally, the environment and road safety.

It was in response to these concerns that government placed a ceiling on the age imported vehicles, but even though the age limit was not strictly adhered to, no thanks to the importers, the colluding Customs and the patronage of the ports of neighbouring countries, an official extension of the age limit of the tokunbo vehicles was a near summersault the NAMA members never expected.

The Executive Secretary gave another reason why his association disagrees with government on the issue: “It is an established fact that the useful age of a car is estimated at nine years. Subsequent use of such a car after this period is inefficient and not cost effective, therefore the advocacy for limiting the age to eight years is borne out by technical and economic facts. The age limit for commercial motor vehicles should be pegged at 10 years for the reasons given above”.

[size=14pt]10 out of 19 northern states behind Jonathan —Abba Gana[/size]
From ZAINAB SULEIMAN OKINO and JACOB EDI, Abuja
Saturday, December 11, 2010



During the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Alhaji Abba Gana presided over the administration of the Federal Capital Territory as its minister for 24 months. As minister, he allocated land to people. Now he lives in a rented apartment and says, “am happy and contented.”

Worse still, he is just in the process of developing a property, which is now stalled due to lack of funds. He insisted, however, that he did not waste his opportunities as FCT minister but was driven by his personal principles of just serving the people, not to have amassed wealth, like some of his predecessor and successors have done.

And as if to add salt to injury, Gana sensationally revealed what he suffered in the hands of Mallam Nasir El-Rufai as minister of the territory, who apparently ordered the revocation of his property for lack of development.
Gana became minister of the FCT after Obasanjo sacked his kinsman, Architect Ibrahim Bunu, from the same position. Still an amiable personality in his 60s, the former minister, who wore the toga of contentment when he spoke to Saturday Sun, said he is a man of little ambition who just wants to live a decent life without dipping his fingers into public coffers.
“You know, both life and the office are a stage.

And Shakespeare said, ‘the world is a stage. You play your part and then depart.’ Well, in my own case, I played my part and then left and life continues. I am a family man with children and grandchildren. I thank God. And I also thank Him for the opportunity given to me to serve my country and of course, to the president who appointed me, Obasanjo. So, right now, I’m not really holding any office,” Abba Gana said, with a calm resignation when asked about his life outside public office.
He also spoke on other things.

https://www.sunnewsonline.com/images/abba-pol.gif

How has you political life been?
Well, I’ve been in active politics since 1978. The problem is that these days, people get into politics so that they get something or so that they get positions. If you get involved in politics to gain something or to gain some positions, it’s a problem. This is so because if you don’t get what you are expecting, you may become unprincipled or defect to another party or even withdraw. So, that is not good. You know, politics is a public office. You don’t play it, because as a person you want to get something or you want to get some position. I don’t get involved in politics, because of some gain or position. So, whether I am given a position or not, whether I am rich or not, which I am not, this does not really discourage me from playing politics.

Are you saying that you left office as FCT minister without anything?
The post of minister of FCT gives one recognition, and that is it. You know, you can get goodwill because of your job. And apart from that, I got the encouragement of the people of my country. But materially, in fact, since I left that office, I’ve been living in rented quarters.

That’s surprising! Does it mean you don’t have a house or a land?
I learnt that when my predecessor, El-Rufai, came along, he removed all of them because the court said I did not develop them on time. So, for lack of development, he re-allocated the land.

[size=14pt]Father hands farmer, sons to police for exhuming uncle’s 18-month-old skull[/size]
By Aishat Jimoh
Saturday, 11 Dec 2010



A 23-year-old farmer, Toheeb Babalola, a resident of Egun Itoku area of Kobape, Abeokuta, has been arrested for allegedly exhuming the corpse and cutting off the skull of one Ojelade Odunewu, who died in June 2009.


The farmer, who did not allow Odunewu to rest peacefully in his grave, was caught alongside his comrades-in-crime, 23-year-old Tiamiyu Sakiru and Wasiu Odunewu.


Crime Digest learnt that the trio were handed over to the police by one Jamiu Odunewu of Ita Maga, Ikorodu, Lagos, a relation to the deceased and the father of Wasiu and Sakiru, when he got to know what his two sons and Babalola had done.


It was gathered from the confessional statement of the father to the police that a family member saw the suspects at the location where Odunewu was buried while they were inspecting the grave of the deceased.


“The relation didn’t see anything unusual about that until two days later when he discovered that the corpse inside the grave had been removed and the head on it was missing. That was when the relation told me what had happened and also that he suspected the three boys because he saw them at the burial ground,” he stated.


The father reported the matter at the Owode Egba Police State, where some policemen were detailed to visit the scene of the crime after which the suspects were arrested.


Babalola, who initiated the alleged crime, had confessed to the crime, adding that the skull had been delivered to his brother, one Yusuf Babalola, a resident of Oyingbo, Lagos, who is, however, currently on the run over the incident.


The farmer alleged that his brother, a driver with the Lagos State Government, Alausa, requested the skull.

Babalola said, “My brother came from Lagos to see me and my mother two weeks before the Ileya (Eid-el-Kabir) and he gave me N8,000 that I should help him to get the head of a dead body; he didn’t tell me what he wanted to use it for but he said it was urgent.

Alhaji AbdulGaniyu Folorunsho Abdulrazak



Alhaji AbdulGaniy Folorunsho Abdulrazak, a former Nigerian Ambassador to Cote d’Ivoire, claims to have met the father of Dr. Olusola Saraki in Abidjan in the sixties. In this interview with BAMIDELE JOHNSON, he tells the story of his friendship with the older Saraki, whose origin he gives as Abeokuta

Q: What do you know about the background of Dr. Olusola Saraki?
Well, in 1962, I was appointed Ambassador of Nigeria to Cote d’Ivoire and one of those who met me at the port as part of the Nigerian community in
Abidjan turned out to be the father of Olusola Saraki, Alhaji Muttahiru Saraki. As an ambassador there, my second secretary in the embassy, Ignatius Olisemeka, who later became Foreign Affairs Minister, led officials of the embassy to come and meet me. That was around September or
October 1962. In those days, there was only one flight from Lagos to other West African countries. Ships plied the coast of West Africa, carrying some
passengers. One of the ships named General Mangaine travelled on the West African coast, stopping at principal ports. After leaving the Cameroons, it came to Lagos, where I went aboard together with Ado Ibrahim, who is now
the Emir of Kano. Both of us were appointed the same day as ambassadors; he to Senegal, I to Ivory Coast. We went with our respective families,
stopping at several ports along the way until we finally disembarked at Abidjan. So, I observed that the crowd that came to meet me at the port was divided into two and members of each group had flags of different colours,
saying: “Welcome, our ambassador.” One group had white and the other, green. And they were supposed to be a Nigerian community welcoming their ambassador.

Then, Olisemeka, my secretary, took me to my official residence. He was more like a permanent secretary to me. He was like a permanent secretary is to a minister. When we got home, he showed me the rooms along with my children and wife. Later, I called Olisemeka and asked why members of the Nigerian community that came to meet me were waving different banners and were standing apart, not mixing. He said I was very perceptive. I asked if they were divided and he said they were. He explained that the division was caused by a fighting over who would lead the Nigerian community. When I asked who the contenders were, he said one was called Alhaji Muttahiru Saraki, while the other was Emmanuel Alabi.
