IYA NGBALI: Islam religion of piss. So these so called muslims in Nigeria are not even recognised by the original and the originator of Islam,so upon all their killings they are fake and classless Muslims,eyaaaaaa,sorry o. Honestly I am enjoying this drama. Let somebody shout halleluyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Kologie: @op I think your friend is right to an extent. Getting too close to your ex can actually whip up old feelings regardless of how high you try to raise your guard. If you are in a new relationship( especially if you are now married) the best bet is to cut off completely and set new rules of engagement.
You can interact with your ex in a very social setting, but not in a private atmosphere that can encourage passionate intimacy. For me, your ex should be seen as just one of your contacts; or like a book in the shelf-- consult them when you need them. Nothing more.

Anything more than that will amount to creating crack in the wall of your new relationship.

oradee: And muslims on the streets (North and co) spew what? Love?
Is killing those people out of love?
If u Truly believe in prophet isa (Jesus) have any of u killed on his behalf when he was mocked? or u choose which prophet to kill for?

oradee: hmm,u stated earlier christians hate u people but now ur denying the violent practices of ur religion.
If Islam truly is a religion of peace, pls define the peace ur being taught at ur quaran schools and keep preaching to us about?
People have died cos of one excuse or the other ranging from holding the quaran upside down to mentioning Mo's name in papers (im surprised no one is killing and maiming cos his name has been shortened to Mo).
Im surprised no one on NL has started protesting bacause of the comments on NL cos its equal to that movie produced.

Im sure uve been updated that Jos has started their own protest.By tomorrow,lets hope we dont start counting bodies.

oradee: is Love or hate being preached in the brainwashing?
You really think ur Religion is above anyone else abi?
Those people doing the brainwashing are muslims like u...and if the outcome of the "brainwashing" results in d killing of innocent lives,then ur religion is to blame! not Christians,the FG,Americans,or "infidels"

oradee: So before u say Christians hate ur religion,ask urself what makes them do so cos BH is still within our midst...

oradee: Thats strange...cos it sounds like one and the same (Unless ur publicly denying ur religion?)

oradee: i donno...pls tell us what religion Boko Haram is forcing upon Nigerians?

oradee: Hate? did u say hate?
and which religion is trying to convert Nigeria to their mode of worship?
and has even gone to the point of shedding blood?
The proverb of a log in one's eye is truly true...

gbokukueba: Somethings i just don't like patronizing Nigerian businesses because they don't give a rat-ass about their customers. I was in the same shoes June this year was stranded in Ivory Coast when AirNgeria engineers went on strike and i got an email a night before the flight with no explanation whatsoever how i got to Nigeria was by God's grace and till date no refund for the cancelled flight.

9icest: The whole of the useless North should be sorrounded with a giant cage. These guys are all animals. And it seem their Islam takes the little brain theyve got away completely.
And please, no spitting. Im a moslem, and im really rethinking about an alternative

AdoreKIZITO: May their gentle souls rest in perfect peace.
Kano Kano Kano!!!!!, how many times did i call you... You have become the center of sorrow.

akpu nku: make una no vex o abeg... What is the difference b/w the super cup Real madrid won and the this one Atletico madrid won **Just asking**

Katsumoto: This is what gets Ndigbo in trouble everytime - coveting what belongs to others.

1. Starting with Zik wanting yto be premier of the Western region, losing, and then lying about his loss
2. Ironsi promulgating decree 34, abolishing Hausa as testing language so that Igbo civil servants could get jobs in the North, and Ojukwu announcing to the whole world that Ndigbo would export civil servants to the rest of Nigeria
3. Organizing the first coup and setting the dangerous precedent which has set Nigeria back by 300 years

You have your own territory, you wont develop it but you want what belongs to others.

Nashville: You people are either jobless, senseless or both! Your leaders from every tribe are collectively stealing your money for themselves and their children, yet you sit behind a computer cursing each other. You do not yet know who your real enemies are, that is why you live in poverty. I am sure the thieves in aso rock and national assembly are laughing at you fools for your extreme stupidity.

Continue to abuse Awo, Zik, Ojukwu, Gowon etc. These men have lived their lives and have wealth to last their generations unborn. Instead of trying to build a better future, you are crying about the past!

Katsumoto: The problem with some of you Biafrans is that you have selective memory. You are quick to point out the faults in others but fail to see your own faults because of your massive egos. Lets look at some facts which many of you ignore. Like they say, as you lay your bed, so shall you lie on it. If you refuse to move on and prefer to blame others, then we shall be here to provide additional context and facts. You made a power grab and lost; deal with it and stop whining like little biatches.

1. Appointments made by Ironsi after the Jan 66 coup

Chief of Staff (Supreme Headquarters) – Ogundipe (West)
Chief of Army (Staff) – Gowon (North)
Chief of Staff (NAF),Lt. Col.George Kurubo (East, non-Igbo)
Commanding Officer, 2 Bde, Lt. Col. H. Njoku (East, Igbo)
Commanding Officer, 2 Bn, Major H. Igboba (Midwest, Igbo)
Commanding Officer, Abeokuta Garrison, Major G. Okonweze (Midwest, Igbo)
Commanding Officer, 4 Bn, Major Nzefili (Midwest, Igbo) -Rejected by Northern troops and replaced by Joe Akahan
Commanding Officer, Federal Guards, Major Ochei (Midwest, Igbo)
Commanding Officer, 1 Bn, Major D. Ogunewe (East, Igbo)
Commanding Officer, 1 Bde, Lt. ColW. Bassey (East, non-Igbo)
Commanding Officer, 3 Bn, Major Okoro (East, Igbo)
Commanding Officer, Depot, Major F. Akagha (East, Igbo)
Commanding Officer, 5 Bn,Major M. Shuwa (North)

2. After the Police completed its interrogation, the January coup suspects were transported to different prisons in the South but mainly in the East

3. A court-martial panel was nominated, headed by Lt. Colonel Conrad Nwawo (Nzeogwu’s friend and the man responsible for negotiating Nzeogwu’s surrender). Yet every time this panel was to sit, directives came from Supreme headquarters to postpone

4. The deaths of the victims in January, apart from Balewa, were not announced until after Ironsi was overthrown, leaving room for rumours and innuendos.

5. Ironsi’s advisory team comprised Francis Nwokedi, Pius Okigbo, and Lt. Colonel Patrick Anwunah

6. Ironsi made Nwokedi the sole commissioner forthe establishment of an administrative machinery for a unified Nigeria

7. Ironsi abolished the compulsory Hausa test for civil service positions in the North, meaning that non-Hausa speaking people could take positions in the North.

8. Ironsi promulgated decree 34 which divided Nigeria into 35 provinces and made all civil servants part of a unified civil service despite being advised not to do so by Katsina, Gowon, Bassey, and Kam Salem. The day after the promulgation of decree 34, Lt. Col.Ojukwu publicly announced in Enugu that on the basis of seniority, Igbo civil servants would be transferred to other regions and Lagos.

9. The Drummermagazine June publication contained two provocative articles; “Why Nigeria Exploded” by Nelson Ottah which allegedly derided northern leaders,and “Sir Ahmadu rose in his shrouds and spoke from the dead” by Coz Idapo, which allegedly featured a cartoon in which the reverred late Premier was asking for forgiveness from Idapo. These articles were blamed for the May 1966 riot in some Northern cities which led to approximately 600 Igbo deaths

10. Offensive photographs showing Major Nzeogwu standing on the late Sardauna of Sokoto were said to be distributed in the open including market places.Some Igbos were even alleged to have worn stickers to that effect and were eager, in conversations with northerners, to point to Nzeogwu saying ‘Shi ne maganin ku”, meaning “he is the one who can knock sense into you”.Grammophone records with machine gun sounds were released, to remind Northerners, it is said, of the bullets that felled their leaders in January. If this wasn’t true, why did General Ironsi issue orders that anyone displaying provocative pictures or singing offensive songs would be arrested for incitement and would face 3 months imprisonment or 50 pounds fine or both (Decree 40)?

11. An Army company was deployed to Sokoto as a permanent garrison allegedly under an Igbo Major.

12. Shehu Shagari was detained and questioned for three days in Lagos about questions over NPC funds. The houses of other NPC chieftains were also searched.

13. Eleven (11) Majors were promoted substantive Lt. Cols while fourteen (14) Majors were made temporary Lt. Cols.Of these, 19 were Igbo or Igbo speaking easterners and midwesterners, 5 northerners (Katsina, Akahan, Shuwa, Muhammed, Haruna) and one Yoruba (Olutoye). These promotions happened even though there was a moratorium on promotions in the military.

14. In his biography titled“Power with Civility” by Oleka and Ofondu (Neskon 1998), Rear Admiral Ndubuisi Kanu, an Igbo easterner who later fought in the Biafran Navy, states:“That Igbos, including soldiers in the barracks, teased their Northern counterparts about what they regarded as swapping of fortune, served to fray tempers.It was not long before Northerners vented their spleen on their Igbo guests. An orgy of killing of Igbos throughout all nooks and crannies of the Northern Region kicked off.”In his book, “Revolution in Nigeria, Another View” late General Garba describes how his soldiers in the Federal Guard broke down in tears in Jankara market in Lagos when they heard the album “Machine Gun” .General Danjuma (rtd) says even the wives of Igbo soldiers were taunting the wives of Northern soldiers.

15. In an interview back in the early eighties with Radio Kaduna, then Brigadier (later Major General) Mamman Vatsa, now deceased, is quoted by Elaigwu as saying:
“The July coup was motivated by the actions in January 1966 whereby an illegal action was legitimized.If you do that, you expect a counter reaction. July 29, 1966 was a reaction to an inaction against an illegal action….Right from the beginning, the GOC, Nigerian Army regarded these people as ‘rebels’.If that was accepted, the immediate thing was to take the necessary action to get them disciplined legally. If this was not done, then the GOC was condoning indiscipline or treason.Rather than punish men from his army who were on mutiny, he was now asking the civilian government to hand over to him before he could maintain discipline in an organization of which he was in charge….In the first instance, he shouldn’t even have taken over the power……”

Im impressed, Thanks for the Education.. Pure facts and putting the record straight.. Not like others who come here and blab rubbish.

Bawss1: In fairness the ThisDay article stated that the CEO of Honeywell is Chris Bale not Christian Bale. Still, how the reporter thought it fitting that it must be the Batman actor is a mystery.

Maybe the Joker has taken over ThisDay newspaper.
