Noneroone:
@Op you are very correct. Nigeria is a country built on hypocrisy, lies and injustice. We all know that the idea of a united Nigeria is an illusion. In the late 1950s, Ahmadu bello vowed to rather give foreigners posts than Igbos, leading to their demand that the british should continue untill independence becomes "practicable".

Again in 1966 many Notherners and wersterners took advantage of the Igbo led coup (an act which most Igbo leader were not privy) to promote anti-igbo sentiment. Many statements were released by govt in northern and western region portraying igbos as dominieering pple who took over jobs from the 'indigens'. Many igbos were attacked and sacked.

Around 2006 we heard about the killing of six Igbo traders in Abuja. Nothing has been heard about the 'apo six' till today.

What about the aluu murder case?

Even till today an average Hausaman will pretend to be contented with just the food he eat but then will be ready to capitalize on a danish cartoon to burn down a house owned by an igbo in the north.

We also hear yorubas saying go back to your "villages" simply because they eye Igbo investments and jobs.

Tell me the moral right someone who does this has to condemn a south african doing same in their own country.

There is no difference between Igbophobia and xenophobia

nigerians should know that charity begins at home.

Camsydarling:
You are getting it all wrong, my dear. Okezie leads with Over 80,000 votes in the overall LGA results. Remove the result of those rigged areas (Isialangwa North, Osisioma, and Obingwa), you will see that APGA leads. The truth is that with 14 LGA results that had no issues, ALEX is winning PDP( ie 152,642 votes for APGA against 115,377 votes for PDP). The difference there is 37,265. Pls don't compare Imo state Inconclusive election with that of Abia state because they are based on different reasons. Thanks

safarigirl:
you must think everyone on NL is banking on information from NL.

I know what's going on in Abia, I know people there and it's APGA they want. Corpers are complaining of the irregularities in the election.

That any sane Abian will even support TA or PDP despite their antics so far is shameful. What have you benefitted from TA? Only fellow corrupt people like that man.

Or are you an Ngwa man? Those are the only PDP supporters in Abia because Ikpeazu is their 'brother'

XBLadez:
Then get ur facts clear before spewing them in public!
Most Igbos got their PVC from their hometown. If you're not an impostor, you'd have noticed that a lot of people travelled eastwards early last week to cast their votes. And more than half of those that got their PVC in Lagos didn't vote. So your claim that Igbo people put their political focus on foreign lands is not true

XBLadez:
You're an impostor, stfu!

SaiBuharii:
What is the Hell is happening in the east/south. When dud igbos become so desperate for power? Instead of the few ones that have sense to travel back to the east and make things better, they are in Lagos dragging Lagos with yoruba people. And it makes you wonder if the hve plans for their children children to settle down in an developed igbo land. AbI why will you vote for or rig for Ochendo, why will you votr against or rig against Owelle, your only hope of becoming a president, why will a normal human being vote Wike? See our Lagos sef, wanting to force PDP on us, inspite of their failures.


It is well!

Rapmoney:
I often wonder where Nigerian youths copied this nonsense from because even students in universities in America, Asia and Europe do not engage in this trashy act as we do over here!!! Yet, we still call them agents of immorality?

I just feel, deep within my heart, that girls who cohabit or cohabited in the university do not desrve any dime as bride price paid on them! They should just follow their would-be husband to his house, free of charge and continue where they stopped in school!

A girl cohabits with a guy for 4 to 5 years in school; this means the dude would bleep her through out those years (free of charge o!), she would perform wifely duties for him...cooking, cleaning, washing, providing emotional wifely support, etc (free of charge too o!). Now, what's still left in such a body? If she can bleep a dude for years without any dime paid on her, coupled with the numerous wifely duties, then what's the need of paying a dime on her as diary or bride price? If that bloke that bleeped her for years didn't pay a dime on her where families would meet, eat and drink and pray, why should I pay a dime on her head? Worse of it is that this dude enjoyed all what he enjoyed free of charge! Now, why should I be requested to pay for same? Common, that's not fair! What's sauce for the goose is also sauce for the gander!!!

From Delsu to Lasu, from Uniben to OOU, from Uniport to Unical, from UniAbuja to Esut...it is the same story! Any girl who cohabits with a dude in school who has never paid a dime on her has lost her feminine value! She doesn't deserve anything paid on her!!!

lygn19:
me I wonder o, they keep talking as if d igbo's in lagos were given free land, and dat they accomodate them by bringing food to give dem every morning and dash dem money everytime..

Somebody wud be suffering for over 20years, some of dem start off hawking things, from there they get blessed and they rent their own shops, from there they get a big business, build a house and get married. and is now comfortable

While dat person was busy running under d hot sun hustling on his own, most times he slept under d bridge, slept in empty stomach this ppl didn't remember them, but once they make it,they wud come and say they made it because yorubas are accommodating

If sm1 goes to Lagos and seats down would a Yoruba man come and say take my land, I am dashing u.... dz ppl just keep talking out if ignorance.

maestroferddi:
Why talk like a blockhead?

Should an oral apology suffice for a traditional ruler who chose to incite genocide against an ethnic nationality?

How come we are not hearing the allusion to Gbagbo's wife from you incorrigible APC supporters unlike your infamous outcry when Patience Jonathan committed a misspeak recently?

This case should be taken to ICC at The Hague so as to serve as a deterrent to others. Many undesirable elements are wont to always refer to the killing of Igbos in the north in a bid to intimidate them. They seem to forget the capability of the Igbos to sink Nigeria should they decide to exact reprisals for crimes committed against the Igbo nation since independence.

Idrismusty97:
I see one region putting all their eggs in one basket . Northerners even gave PDP lots of votes compared to what the SE gave APC, Now no Senate presidency for them .

DaGC:
Some of you should stop heating the polity with comments here. Peace should be the vanguard now considering state elections are still coming up.
Someone just made a few unconfirmed statements and attached a picture that didn't even correlate to the story (looks like a campaign walk to me), and some of you are at each other throats already. Like WTF!!

I call on the administrators of this forum to carefully scrutinize all threads in this trying period and shut down those that seem biased, unconfirmed, spiking hatred etc.

MadCow1:
having pointed this out, it is also worthy to note that many elements within Jonathans administration contributed to his downfall..

Elements like;

Alamiesigha whom he pardoned..

Femi Fani-Kayode..

Asari Dokubo..

Edwin Clarke..

His illegal firing of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi..

Losing 5 of the G-7 Governors..

Diezani Allison Madueke..

His handling of the Stella Oduah issue.

His failure to deal with Boko Haram earlier..

His 6 weeks onslaught against Boko Haram also worked more against him than anything else as it made the Nation feel like we suffered through a problem that could have been dealt with in 6 weeks for 6years at the price of over 15,000 Nigerian lives..

The economic downward trend of the Naira against the dollar..

Our new increasing debt profile..

Our dwindling national reserves.

The politicizing of the Nigerian Army..

His lack of control over his wife Patience who caused the upset in Rivers State polity that led to the closure of its states house of assembly.

Doyen Okupe and Rueben Abati..

His association with Bode George..



I am beginning to wonder what the fate of people like CSP Joseph Mbu would be after May 29...

nagoma:
The south south did their best for Jonathan , but you cannot give what you don't have. Their best was not enough , their population alone cannot elect a president in a democracy. We have been telling them this for the last 6 years but they were too rich to listen.

Sweetie pls be careful
