Emeka is an Igbo right activist like me and he is fighting a good fight. Am reguraly in touch with him and other Igbo right activist from Delta state. God bless him.

Hmm do you know about his thoughts of eastern igbos?i do not think he he sees us in good light.i have read a lot of his articles.

i do not understand the so called congratulation and what it is for.  the post is only acting and it was going to get to man anyway since he is the next in line after the sacking of uduaghan and his deputy.it is not a permanent thing.

ha this Emeka Esogbue is taking this Anioma thing seriously.even for facebook.

The only way Mumu Nigerians will ever get electricity if they come out of their perpetual accommodation in suffering and smiling and rise up and murder all these wicked leaders until then darkness remains -it is impossible to go from 3000 mw to 20000 MW in just under four years in Nigeria - who is going to pay for it - even if you allow private companies - legislation and planning alone can last the entire 4 years - Abi Jonathan thinks power plant is like a mud house that you can build in a day.

guy no worry we are the happiest guys on earth.e go better

Lets leave gossip for folks in entertainment section.


True word. Perharps he's following his heart by Clubbing his heart out who knows?.
But a player of his immense talent ought not to be too far from football. take the likes of Maradona, Pele, Zidane, Gullit, Hoddle , They've all stayed close to football and given back to the sport that brought them fame. These guys arent just popular but can be inspirations to aspiring footballers, they command so much respect in this field hence they have to stay close to the game. What purpose is Okocha serving in a club house? How much inspiration can he give in a clubhouse or how much respect can command?

Not every former fooballer even great ones have much or even any attachment to the game after they have hung up there boots.Paolo Rossi is possibly one of the most deadly and famous strikers italy has ever produced but after he hung up his boots in 1985 he has been living a secluded life in italy and hardly grants interviews.

fstranger:
You guys should stop this your yeye crap! However,I still maintain my earlir stance, there are very few Yorubas in the north; because we don't like mingling with lowlives. We are more sophisticated than those pigs north of the niger! That, my friends, is the plain truth.

I repeat ignorance is not bliss.

fstranger:
Hey don't bring Yoruba into your stu.pid dead-Biafra rant! There are few Yorubas in the north. Anuofia!

Ignorance is not bliss.

did he really say that ?

jason12345:
. . . . and they will be rewarded by fairness but i think the mentality of nigerians is that if an igbo man becomes the president, [b]all he would do is import weapons for biafra and start a war.[/b]am i right?

Is that not retarded thinking

e go better now  

Olythruth o wughi thread nile ka i ga n'ekwu okwu.Oge ufodu ga ahapu thread ahu.Ha choro ka ikwu okwu.

jason12345:
i though ibibio or efik are together with igbos? i thought you all share the same cause (biafra and all)?_{no offence intended}

mehn you really have to get this biafra thing out of your mind.na wa.they were in the former eastern region with igbos but that is it.some were pro briafrans and some were not just like ijaws.are ijaws now igbo or share the same cause with igbo?

jason12345:
and how do you know?

He is ibibio/efik.

he is not new on nairaland so am i.

jason12345:
@ richie boi, thank you. i don't know if you are igbo. but the igbos on this forum do not rebuke such!

@ wily

i pity you

Wilywily is not igbo

jason12345:
does it matter?! are you not all igbo? why can't you guys unite for GOD sake!!!! tinubu is not awori yet he became the governor of lagos. even the hausas don't mind the fulanis ruling them. but you guys . . . . . . . . . . mehn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!_{i wish biafra was formed so we can have peace!}

Ibibio is igbo as Uhrobo is Yoruba.

Last easter period (April).
Shell is currently exploring the community for crude oil.

For wetin . abeg we no want another niger delta in that axis.

Ade2K8:
Immediately after the war - did your people move right back North or not?!!! Or did you move west where you were assisted and shown compassion by Yoruba families? Do you have the spine or decency to answer that simple question?

so you do not know that they did?are you ignorant?

jason12345:
ever since i joined NL i have always wondered,

if the igbos say yorubas are horrible, dirty and are illiterates, why are they in the SW if they cannot stand yorubas??

1) why don't they go to the north were they would be killed in masses or remain in the EAST since they are well educated, clean and good people.

2) why don't they start any wahala in lagos and see what would happen since the yorubas are cowards?

3) is this the way the igbos in lagos think about the yorubas after the yorubas see them as brothers?

have been to the north to say that igbos do not go there?do you know the population of igbos there?

do you know that the east is getting overpopulated?

Ade2K8:
Thousands of Yorubas in Igbo land = millions of Ndibo in the west.
Calling Yoruba people horrible people = sarcasm (do consult a dictionary or a thesaurus)
If Yorubas are ethnic bigots (laughable) = why do you have ONLY thousands of Yorubas in the east. Part of the reason is the parochial & narrowminded world view of you guys. Do you have any idea how many Ndigbo families were assisted by Yoruba families after the war? Did Ndigbo move North after the war? - Yes or No? Was it logical for your people to move North en masses after the war? Please answer me. But no - Yorubas are bastards? AH - go to hell!!!

so you do not know there are large igbo population in the north?are you ignorant?

jason12345:
ok brother, i am sorry if i come across as a traitor.

but bro, we need to stop this people that have hijacked mend because if we don't and a military action is required, then our people would be in trouble. . _{btw, whats up with clark and delta state}

he is from delta state.

abagoro:
Where is beaf?

True federalism remains our last hope.

Watch out for the deadly Efik/Ibibio militia and MASSOB next year.This can still be stopped by just a simple decision.Ending unnecessary frame ups and true federalism.

o boy which one be this efik/ibibio militian wey you dey always talk about?

DapoBear:
I dunno why certain non-southwesterners are here commenting on this. It doesn't concern your land or territory. Of what concern is this to you all, really?

you must be new to nairaland

kcjazz:
We can and we will develop but it takes time to heal old wounds. And we will get there. We need a system of government that works for us, a system that takes into account our differences, something different from Europeans.

i do not buy that.Spain is a good example

i do not think we are even trying to heal any wound let alone taking time to heal it especially with the way our politicians whip up ethnic sentiments.

jason12345:
thank your support

we are too politically naive to start federalism without breaking up the country!

then we can as well forget any meaninful development in the country.

kcjazz:
I support Jason12345 on this one.

We are too divided along religious and tribal lines to opt for full federalism. After the civil war, the idea to make the center strong was in order to provide swift security . In the first republic, people voted along regional lines like NCNC, NPC and AG. Its not like in the US where 2 parties are present in all states. Problem is we have politicians who have learned to stir up religion or tribe as tool for unrest, hence our democracy is not yet suited for full federalism. The creation of states was to diffuse regional powers.

My take on this issue is to reform local government administration, that way no one is marginalized. No new states should be added. I feel politicians are using the federalism issue to cover incompetence. As it is, any state can do better than the way they are now.

You have to 'force' state to generate their own revenue.

Ibime:
Some dey progress go G20

Others dey progress go failed state.
Which one go happen first.

When my father was getting free milk from the Government in school in 1960, GDP was nearly zero.

As GDP dey grow, na so our suffer dey increase.

Make una carry go abeg.

Tuition fees are increasing from £3000.00 to £9000.00 per annum.
