civilians in that area are not innocent, or else, they should point out the bastards among them. Both gunmen and the civilians should be fatally killed.,

u must be mentally unstable to come to that conclusion…

Are u alright…. in a sane country if you are investigating stuffs like this you ask questions from the people nicely maybe they would cooperate, not shooting,killing and destroying their properties…. That only happens in a zoo and of course people won’t be willing to assist the military or police in a zoo

KillSars:
If military men vex now shift their base come dat area, some fools go dey shout sey dem send them...

Which kind rubbish be diz for God sake...

GreatBoss:
I AM NORTH

I am North
I run from the far Sahara
Through the Sahelian Kano
To the fertile lands of Benue

I am North
A spring of wisdom
I fed the brave Sardauna
And the eloquent Tafawa

I am North
A home to the Hausas
The Fulanis and Kanuris
Beroms, Tivs and Idomas

I am North
A generous mother
For I betrothed The Niger
To a beautiful bride--The Benue

In me are a people
From diverse places
Adamawa speaks beauty
In Kaduna, it rains intellect

Sokoto narrates legends
Of Shehu Usmanu Danfodiyo
And his conquest of Argungu
Down to the villages of Ilorin

In me were blacksmiths
From the ancient town of Bidda
Tell me about the town of Hadejia
And fishes in its mysterious River

Plateau harbours minerals
And abundance dwell in Kano
Maiduguri was a home for all
In the days of Ajami scripting

My youths are not Islamists
I am the groudnut pyramids
I am Yakubu Gowon and Abacha
I am Mamman Shuwa and Murtala

When the sun rises
My markets get saturated
With hardworking merchants
And traders from beyond me

I am North
The stout Maina
The arid land of Gashua
I am vast farming and Pottery

I am North
A cave that echoes
All sounds of Dan Kwairo
I am the strings of Dan Maraya

I am North
Arewan Sarki Dikko
I am Mamman Durugu
I am architectural prowess

I am North
I am the wealthy Dangote
I am Okene and Ajaokuta
I am Damaturu, Jos and Lafia

There's more to me
Than the stories you hear
I had noble Queens and Kings
Towns within me, far and near

I am North
Of various faiths
Muslims and Christians
Of churches and mosques

Do not try to slander me
False tales don't define me
My offsprings are not terrorists
For I am North, I am hospitality

In me are age-long festivals
And some colourful durbars
My Yankari is a sight to behold
Come! Do not wait till you are told

Mambilla touches the skies
"Awara" is sweeter when fried
I heard Gurara has tasty waters
In me are brothers without borders

Bauchi devours Maasa
Fura is an anthem in Gombe
There are morsels of Tuwo in Daura
Hadejia is well known for Miyan Kuka

All hail Mamman Shata
Who rose from ancient Funtua
Our Queen Amina was a heroine
She fought wars for old Zazzau

I am North,
I am Bayajidda,
I am Atta and Bayero
I am Ladi Kwali and Sawaba

I am North
The seat of The Caliphate
The Birnin Kudu paintings
I am culture and heritage

I am North,
I am milk and meat
I am cows and camels
I am grains and bounty harvests

I am North
An abode of the Gwaris
The Jukuns and the Zurus
The Ebiras and the Igalas

These rains will go
This blood will wash away
These cries will fade slowly
For I am North, Arewan Ali Makaho

I am North,
A place of love
For myriad centuries
Where peace had found shelter

They call me North
My children call me Arewa
But then, to me, I am a home
For men, women, young and old.

Shehu Mubarak Sulaiman ®

Come and see.

why u edit my comment ni ?

Obidient4life2:
The guy no even get shame. How many times have he seen Mark of Facebook on other platforms?
Instead of the idiot to devote his energy and time into improving this obsolete site he is busy playing tribal politics on another man's platform.

no be lie sha Nairaland has experienced little or no updates since it came into existence, no new user interface no single update, but his busy campaigning for a devilish party like APC

[quote author= post=117042442]I dey tell you, I have been waiting for the pictures since yesterday mind you they induced hundreds of people on Sunday at APC office at Gloval Road Ikoyi for the purpose of the rally on Monday, yet shame no gree them post the pictures [/quote]lmao Nigerians don Dey wise up.. dem collect money and dem no show up

EngrKemp:
Lies .
Not true..
Opobo n Bonny are ibani ijaws n speak ibani as mother tongue

an average Ipob only hears about Ibani but can’t speak come in it, they all speak Igbo and teach their children Igbo and if that is not mother tongue for u then I give up

michelz:
It's not much of a confusion.
The term 'Ijaw' these days, is a political construct, just like 'Niger Delta'.
When you find yourself living close to the river and you have oil, then you're definitely 'Ijaw'.
It doesn't really matter if you speak Izon or you practice their culture.
Look at GEJ from Ogbia. He is now a full fledged Ijaw man. Not minding the fact that Izon and Ogbia language are not mutually intelligible. They don't even marry themselves and have absolutely nothing in common.

u fully understood the situation on ground…

This is exactly the simplest solution to Nigeria problems

I don’t know about Bonny but as for Opobo even those with Ijaw names are paternal Igbo meaning they are Igbo with Ijaw names….
Opobo is 100percent Igbo.
Ask most Opobo people where they are from they might say Ijaw but if u ask him where his grandfather that gave birth to father is from he will tell u his grandfather is Igbo.
There’s a hell lot of confusion there, most will tell am Igbo but by naturalization am Ijaw lol

Blue3k:
Who are you speaking for? There's a constitutional process for areas of the state to secede and join another state if they wish to. Its much easier than creating a new state created.

it’s much easier on paper lol

rusher14:
Or East na.

By the way, Ondo and Lagos state produce oil.

ok but the Ondo part that produces oil should never be part of Ondo… which Lagos are u talking about There’s no single drop of oil in Lagos.
For East there’s Abia,Anambra and Imo.

Perfectbeing:
The North is less than 5% of the problem of the South.

In the first 6 months of 2022 (Jan - June), the 8 Oil Producing states of Niger Delta shared 377. 9 billion naira as 13% Derivation Revenue. Of this figure, Delta state got the highest -- 114.7 billion naira. Akwa Ibom state followed with 80 billion naira. Bayelsa in 3rd position with 76. 7 billion naira & Rivers in 4th with 70. 4 billion naira. It is important to note that this 377. 9 billion shared by these states is just for the first 6 months of this year & not the total figure for the whole year 2022. It is equally noteworthy that this 377.9 billion is just from the mandatory 13% Derivation allocation. It does not include other hundreds of billions of naira coming in monthly from -- Main Statutory allocations, Royalties, Rents, Taxes, Ecological funds, IGRs, Loans, Grants & Refunds, NDDC funds, Ministry of Niger Delta funds etc. When you add this additional hundreds of billions of naira to Delta state's 114. 7 billion naira 13% Derivation share or Bayelsa's 76. 7 billion 13% Derivation share, the total in a month could blow one's mind. You could argue that Rivers state & Akwa Ibom can point at a few developmental projects that a fraction of this money is applied to while over 60% of these funds end up in private pockets. But where is the evidence of even 10% of this hundreds of billions anywhere in Delta state or Bayelsa state. And when one considers that Bayelsa is just only 8 local governments, any human being from that state should be shedding tears of shame. What socio-economic, infrastructural development & upliftment in the standard of living of citizens, comparable to that of any developed country in the world, can the hundreds of billions coming in monthly not be more than enough to build in Delta state or Bayelsa state with just 8 local governments that put together are not even up to one local government in Kano state? But unfortunately & tragically shameful too, the problem of the people of Delta & Bayelsa states ruled by Southerners since 1999 (23 years now) is the North. How surprising.

craps
nobody should sow where they did not sow
Ur long epistle isn’t worth looking at

rusher14:
Wicked how?

If only your parents had given birth to only 1 child instead of 10, perhaps our oil resources would have been enough to sustain the population.

no I’d say if the regions with the oil had their own country, no parasites from Waste or North reaping from where they did not sow

oyebanji44:
Ok it reminded me of the civil war these were the bingos that were killed on Biafra side,,,

u think it’s funny

Revolution2022:
Igbo hate Igbo.

the hates are from the elites and politicians... we the people love ourselves

Sonyboom765:
This show how foolish many of you Igbos are, a set of bandit can be terrorizing the home state of a presidential candidate the said candidate can speak about other contestants but the fool can not utter a single word about the unrest in his state wow !

All you dead brain foolish Igbos must think eveey Nigeria is as dead in the brain as you have chosen to be out of bigotry n foolishness

are u normal?

Ebubu:
anyi chucks my black arse someone dave is sponsoring to make sure obinna ogba does not win pdp ticket obinna ogba a sitting senator and once strong man of local ebonyi politics in 2003 and 2002 young nwifuru had no chance over him. it will be easier manning up young nwifuru with young odii, nwifuru can win him due to a little local politics experience but for where ogba is nwifuru had no chance reason why dave made sure pdp had two factions before he left, went further to recruit odii and fund him all the way to supreme court to make sure ogba is not declared pdp ticket holder ogba is very strong. i am telling you for the first time dave has a hand in odii emergence, i will reveal no further what his media campaign team told me on twitter ebonyi state politics sweet sue

lol typicall wawa yapping gibberish .. eh go clear for una eyes

Peacecore:
Is it by name? We have players such as Walker, Blind, Drinkwater. Also people like Bush, Gate, Crook/Crooke all of them are did or doing well.

abeg crook just sounds better, Nwaifuru is just way too funny , i recently learned it means a hardened criminal...

Ebubu:
so umahi is not a criminal? or you think he is a saint? you are living in delusion. you will hang nwifuru portrait in your office in abakaliki next year, if you have any.

no words for u

Peacecore:
Stop disparaging a whole tribe for the sin of one.

lol these guys can be annoying for real.

candidtalk:
You need a crash course in history. Go and read Gowon's declaration below. Even with your propensity for always positioning the Igbo man as the innocent victim over every situation, please try to be sensible now and them.

Ojukwu and his fellow megalomaniac Igbo warmongers sent 3 million people to their death. Not Gowon, Not Awolowo, not Adekunle, not the Queen of England and not Yorubas or Northerners.

The greedy, covetous and irresponsible megalomaniac called Ojukwu sent those Igbos to their death callously only to flee like a coward after declaring he would fight to the death.


https://www.thecable.ng/flashback-ojukwus-declaration-sparked-off-civil-war-50-years-ago/amp

i think u lack comprehension... this qoute by Gowon shows he want to keep Nigeria one by all means. it shows Gowon was the greedy one.
if Nigeria is one why kill people that say they do not want again.
Nigeria is and has never been one and it is a fundamental human right/natural law to choose where u belong..

he should contested under APC if he is soo damn sure

Peacecore:
Is he actually the first person to have boasted fire in this forum? Is that life perculiar to Abakaliki people? Or haven't you heard it from my Yoruba brothers?

lol for the first i have to concur with ur Yoruba brothers

Peacecore:
Una wan rule again back to back.

yes, why not when they are fielding people not for even fit to be primary school class prefect for governorship.... what hell is Nwaifuru the name sef sound absord

Ebubu:
like i said, near the olympic stadium next year during his swearing in and leave in an ambulance.
