jerseyboy:You always make things worst with ur religious fanaticism. If all Southern Christians criticising Buhari would be called Christian bigots, roaring for religious cause it would look very bad on u. Think reasonable, stop being dogmatic by accepting alk the lies they feed to ur head in congregations! |
christm386:Your comment is an insult to Yoruba and divisive very obvious to us far away from you. There is no such kind of surreptitiously divisive comment u will make that we won't understand. Have a look at this incomplete list of victims of assassinations under your highly respected Obasanjo out of which not a single one was solved in the entire 8 years of his tenure - Chief Bola Ige (Attorney General of the Federation); Dr. Marshall Harry (ANPP National Vice Chairman for South-South); Chief Ogbonnaya Uche (ANPP's Senatorial candidate for Orlu Imo State); Mr Theodore Agwatu (Principal Secretary to Imo State Governor); Hon. Odunayo Olagbaju (Member of Osun State House of Assembly);Hon. Uche Nwoke (ANPP Senatorial candidate in Imo State); Hon. Monday Ndor (Member of Rivers State House of Assembly); Dr. Ayodeji Daramola, gurbernatorial candidate in Ekiti State; Ahmed Ahman Pategi (State Chairman of Kwara PDP); Hon Schnapps Omuvwiebese (Councilor, Ughelli - North LG, Delta State); Mr. Funsho Williams, PDP governoship aspirant in Lagos; Mr. Barnabas Igwe (Anambra State Bar Association, Chairman) and his wife, Mrs. Abigail Igwe; Mr. Sunday Ugwu, Mrs. Janet Olapade among many others. Readers should remember that Tafa Balogun has impliedly alleged that he was subjected to Ribadu’s rage by OBJ because he refused to carry out the requested elimination of a former PDP chairman! Reliable sources have confirmed that the only reason Balogun had to spend 6 months in EFCC guest houses as opposed to long time imprisonment and deprivation of all the stolen billions was to prevent him from spilling his guts out. |
ganisucks:Soyinka must be stupid for directly accusing PMB for this. SW States under the coordination of Rotimi Akeredolu brought their consensus candidates in which Omisore made the list but he absolve his kinsmen off blame and accuse PMB for this. |
qekng40:This is a reminder to what we know and indirectly saying that subsidy will be fully removed July this year! |
simplesearch:Everything Chad, Cameroon or Niger do abt BH is the effort of multinational task force sponsored by FGN. Debby did well but it was all set up for his reelection bid. He sent not the actual message but political message. He told u what u wanted to hear but didn't do what he said. I hope the recent effort by NA will get similar momentum from Chad axis... |
Agbegbaorogboye:You have very good understanding of the Northern politics. Only fools take party matter for head when not registered members of the party. |
greatiyk4u:This is all about the soon to be commenced operation against bandits/terrorists. Our neighbours will play a big role during the operation. |
BREAKING: Umahi wins as Appeal Court dismisses his sack as Ebonyi Governor  An Appeal Court in Enugu on Friday dismissed a suit seeking the removal of Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State and his Deputy, Dr. Kelechi Igwe, from office. The suit sought Umahi’s removal from office because he defected from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the All Progressives Congress, APC. The suit was filed by the APC governorship candidate in the 2019 election, Senator Soni Ogbuoji and running mate, Justin Mbam. Recently, an Abuja High Court presided over by Justice Inyang Ekwo had sacked Umahi, Igwe and 17 lawmakers in the state for dumping the PDP to the APC. But, on February 28, 2022, a High Court sitting in Abakaliki struck out the same suit Justice A.O Belgore dismissed the suit for being inconsistent with the constitution and extant laws of the country. https://dailypost.ng/2022/04/01/umahi-wins-as-appeal-court-dismisses-his-sack-as-ebonyi-gov/ |

Muslim leaders, Islamic organizations meet Osinbajo in Abuja Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says unity and tolerance are crucial values needed to safeguard peace and stability in a multi-religious society like Nigeria. Osinbajo gave the position at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, when he received a delegation of Imams, Islamic scholars and Muslim leaders. The delegation of more than 25 Islamic clerics, intellectuals and leaders of different groups was drawn National Council of Ulamas, Qadiriyya Movement, Fitiyanul Islam of Nigeria, Dariya Sect, National Council of Muslim Youths. Others include the Muslim Students Society of Nigeria, Jammat Tajdidul Islamy, Salafiyya Youth Movement, Imams from the National Mosque and Legislative Quarters in Apo, Abuja among others. The gathering discussed issues such as how to promote Nigeria’s unity. Osinbajo noted his delight about receiving the attendees, saying “it is not often that one gets the honour of such a visit.” Chief Imam, Lagos State House of Assembly, Dr. Abdul Hakeem Abdul Lateef described the VP as a leader who loves all Nigerians irrespective of religious or ethnic differences. “We are here in recognition of your love for all Nigerians and your belief in the harmonious existence of our country. We understand the kind of love you have for all Nigerians.” Abdul Lateef, a former Commissioner for Home Affairs, said no less than 18 Muslims were part of the senior cadre of Osinbajo’s staff including the Deputy Chief of Staff, Rahman Ade Ipaye. Leader of the delegation, Prof. Siraj Abdulkarim said they visited Osinbajo because we love this country.” The scholar said the unnecessary rivalry between Christians and Muslims has to be doused and called on the VP to initiate a programme to promote understanding. “I am enriched from what I have heard today and I have noted all the issues. I wish we had a bit more time. I agree we should engage more. "The issues you have raised show us clearly that the future of this country lies with the elites, especially religious and political elites.” Chief Imam of Abuja National Mosque, Prof. Ibrahim Maqari stressed that religious leaders also have “a duty to pray for Nigeria”. https://dailypost.ng/2022/03/31/muslim-leaders-islamic-organizations-meet-osinbajo-in-abuja/ |

Dontmissheaven:You said that one true God but I heard u believe in 3 Gods...father...son.....and.....holy spirit.... Which one is the true and only God? |
Very nice app.... |
DrGoodman:Pls stop this delusional regional politics. Warri-Itakpe, Kaduna-Abuja and Lagos-Ibadan are the only fully operational train services which benefits all Nigerians. |
WhizdomXX:It is very unfortunate and must be condemned. I hope the security agencies rise to the occasion and deal with the terrorists mercilessly.... ![]() |
These service chiefs are very useless, not doing anything to prove their worth.... |
FuckEveryday:This is unpatriotic, myopic statement by sadist. Nigeria didn't fail her but rather her leaders. Nigeria is a Nation with all kinds of potential for growth if utilised well. Nigeria isn't human being but a Nation that only her leaders can take her to the desired dreams or fail the citizens mandate given to the leaders.... |

Fact Check-Video of young girl confronting a soldier has nothing to do with the Ukraine conflict Social media users have incorrectly linked a 2012 video of a Palestinian girl confronting Israeli soldiers with Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. The clip, shared with captions in English in February 2022, which has had millions of views, has been described as showing a Ukrainian girl telling a Russian soldier to “go back to your country”. At least 352 civilians, including 14 children, have been killed since Russia launched its full-scale attack on Ukraine on Feb. 24. A further 1,684 people have been wounded (here). On Feb. 28, ceasefire talks began on the Belarussian border, Moscow said, as sanctions on Russia deepened the country’s diplomatic and economic isolation (here). The video of the girl on social media is not related to the Ukraine conflict. It is nearly 10 years old and shows Palestinian activist Ahed Tamimi confronting Israeli soldiers in the West Bank. VERDICT Miscaptioned. The video is from 2012 and shows a Palestinian girl confronting Israeli soldiers.

vasel15:Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of Nigeria; Chief of Army Staff was from SE Chief of Naval Staff was from SE IG of Police was from SE Chief of Defence Staff was from SE Internal Affairs Minister SE External Affairs Minister SE Education Minister South SE Many other key ministries to SE Parliament President SE Unilag VC from SE The University of Ibadan VC from SE North resisted same at ABU! Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!! Out of all the most senior officers in Nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed. Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it! We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is a tendency to think those are truths and facts. *What follows are facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity!"* Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central govt because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then but some ignorant or selfish people limit their accusations to only Abdussalam Abubakar constitution that give birth to current democratic govt. Today, they're shouting restructuring that they helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”*. The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in Nigeria or refuse to let them go. In their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of Nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire Nigeria nation. However, the national archives have the complete and unedited history of Nigeria regarding the political events beginning way back from even before 1914. Shortly after the 1914 Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, it started getting clear that the country was bound to fail as the amalgamation in question was done with colonial fiat without the consent and consensus of the different tribes which were over 300. This prompted the political leaders to start asking for de-amalgamation so as to forestall the future danger which the forced amalgamation portended. To that end, Ahmadu Bello, speaking on behalf of the Northern protectorate in 1944 described the amalgamation as "The mistake of 1914 which if allowed to remain will ultimately lead to unstoppable bloodshed and a failed country". Awolowo, speaking on behalf of the Yorubas and Western minorities, described Nigeria as a mere geographical expression not qualified to be called a country let alone a nation. Awolowo added that if the amalgamation could not be reversed, then Nigeria should be structured as a strictly federal state so as to enable each tribe enjoy autonomy this freedom from being dominated by any one single tribe. But Nnamdi Azikiwe, speaking for the Igbos, denounced Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello, terming them ethnic champions. He accused them of nursing a sectional agenda against the unity of Nigeria, and he declared further that the Unity of Nigeria was non-negotiable. After moving the motion for independece in 1953, Anthony Enahoro proposed that a secession clause should be incorporated into the future constitution of Nigeria so as to give legal backing for any tribe to peacefully exit the forced union if it feels marginalized in future. According to Enahoro, such provision in our constitution would instill in all Nigeria's future leaders the fear of the consequences of misgovernance. However, Azikiwe, speaking on behalf of Igbos, rose against him in the parliament and labelled him an agent of disunity, and enemy of Nigeria. At a later date, Awolowo too made a case for secession clause, but Azikiwe again resisted him and instigated the colonial authorities to threaten him and Enahoro with charges of treasonable felony if they didn't stop proposing secession clause for the future constitution. While Azikiwe did all these, Igbos cheered and urged him on because they felt the future Nigeria was theirs to dominate and lord it over every other tribe. Before independece, Tafawa Balewa too had in a public speech described Nigeria as a British experiment and Nigeria's unity as a British intention which Nigerians themselves don't believe in. But Azikiwe kicked and demonized him too. Had Azikiwe co-operated with Enahoro, Awolowo, Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa about the secession clause, Nigeria perhaps would not have been this misgoverned. It should be noted that there were many Igbo members of the parliament in which Azikiwe fought against Awolowo's secession clause proposal in the link above, but not a single one of them rose against Azikiwe or condemned him. Igbos initially never wanted to hear anything like secession in Nigeria because they so much believed, though falsely, that they were the most educated tribe. As an evidence of Igbo domination agenda hence their initial resistance to the idea of secession; here is a quote: "From all indications, the god of us Igbos have destined us to rule the whole of Africa" Northerners have clearly known this & will never succumb to cheap political trick, how can u call us backward and at the same time asking us to go back to 1963 constitution talkless of even amending the current constitution? Exonerate British from your allegations and accept that your forefathers are responsible for it! |
Osaze007:May we live long.....you will see the consequences of this deception! |
festacman:You guys all rejoieced and accepted the aspersions of religious bigotry he put on Buhari. So, there is no way PYO will just go away with it. Learn to accept that media houses and bloggers are making u look dogmatic than reasonable human beings.... |
treesun:Kperogi criticised Buhari, a Fulani man than any other politician in Nigeria. |
alsudan:Go and test the power of ur game if u can otherwise u should keep quite and make ur way.... |
Osaze007:We are talking abt indigenes not settlers as u often called Fulani. Lagos has majority indigenous Muslims than Christians. If u think otherwise let those with numbers retain the power forever after Sanwo-olu finish his tenure! |
LLiKYekoba:Honestly, those churches that initiated this aspersions and conspiracies u have been spreading about Yoruba Muslims have exposed you to the highest level of bigotry. This is very sad and absurd, the hates of Tinubu started from those congregations and spread across the South. Very unfortunate dirty politics! |
CAN demanded power rotation between Christian and Muslims. It was agreed that rotation starts after Fashola's tenure and here the agreement would be broken as it has been publicly seen how some groups sponsored by some congregations constantly exerting pressure on Lagos APC to allow Sanwo-Olu to continue the good projects he started. It's very interesting seeing how the agreement is broken, it will be good for history of Lagos polity! |
cutecommend:Babangida may be well respected by Nigerian elites but has no power to stop Tinubu candidacy. The only person who can give Tinubu direct obstacle is PMB, however, Governors, stakeholders and delegates will decide after all. From what is being plotted immediately after the convention there may be similar crisis in APC toward primary election just like what happened prior to this convention until President intervened due to interest of some Governors in the party. About 3 Northern Governors are plotting to be VP candidates and can use religious reasons to give Tinubu serious challenge. Tinubu need more extensive and sophisticated moves than mere guessing. |
oilPUSSY:Stop this delusion. No way u can even hear anything zone in the North except when it comes to political distribution. You can't even compare the whole Northern region with SS and SE in terms of cohesion, coordination and sense of belonging.... |
