If these men cld also be described as historical figures then Napoleon Bonarpate,St. Augustine and St Francis of Assisi
I want to understand the mind set of Napoleon and how he was able to conquer and got to a great height of controlling men with alacrity,at a very young age. His dexterity in running over great armies! He has gat so many questions to answer.
St. Augustine,from a very bad womanizer to a healer of broken hearts.
Then St. Francis how he cld communicate with animals and in some instances,was reported to have biolocated! These are no easy achievements,some of us who have been involved in spiritualism,paronormal and extra sensory activities etc knows that it is never an easy achievement.

Though am nt a fan of Okorocha and his fraudulent ways,i still believe the boy did well and a very big congrat to him...more grease to his elbow.

one thing i know for sure is that, 'great men are ordinary men with extra-ordinary amount of determination'. There was a time when a particular region of this country claimed that they were ahead of others in education and the south East having fought a devastating civil war,there adversaries believing they will never come up again but sheer determination and the never dying spirit of an Igbo man,saw it get over every other region,as the fastest educating region.
Nigerians of other tribes must study the Igbo template,what are they doing right that the educationally disadvantaged states are not doing?what is there motivation?is it a cultural thing?etc.
Indeed if igbos can do it then others can equaly do it. Nigeria can get it right!

'They kind of leaders a nation gets are the kind of leaders they deserve'! lai Moammed has reduced himself to a national clown,only fit for comic relief!!!....i guess he has the most difficult job presently in the whole world,defending Buhari and his gross incompetency.

Yet the real prisoners are those who imprisoned him,they can not walk on the street without security around them,they can nt sleep without securities around,even when in the 'other room' with madam,they still have security presence.
When they are sick,they cant be treated in hospitals in Nigeria where relatives and well wishers will have access to them.
Presently,we have a president who have not been seen in weeks,confined and restricted to secret places by people around him.
But the man Nnamdi Kanu is seen as a demi god by his people,his word is authority,he dosent need money in ghana-must-go bags or brown envelops to mobilize his people,he doesnt need a minister of information to ditch out lies like our notorious Lai Mohammed,he doesnt need a party platform to show case himself.
Even in prison,when he talks the birds of the air carries it to all and sundry....True freedom is of the heart!

I am not a fan of 8uhari and APC government but i honestly think the call by the min.of Science and technology on diasporans to invest at home is a nice one.
I have seen businesses thrive in Nigeria and i have also seen businesses fail in London vice versa. i think investing at home will help reducing the number of unemployed youths roaming the streets of Nigeria and government can nt employ everyone. Why are we demarketing our already ailing economy,lets think home!
Many nigerians are building big enterprises and making big money here in Nigeria or aint we?

Nigeria is a huge joke! Southerners are so hypnotized either through jingo patriotism to the dormant president in Aso Rock or out of fear or mere stupidity! For God sake,if this crime against the sensibility of Nigerians,were carried out by a southern president against the North,Nigeria would have been on fire by now and in one unity the unproductive North would have ignited riots all over the country.
But wait and see how some willing slaves from the south will come and defend the dullard in Aso Rock.....we will still pretend like nothing has happened as usual!
The Nigerian statehood is a big blunder in the first place.

wen i remember Nigeria!water run away mi eyes! Aye! Aye! Water run away mi eyes!!!
I rest my case!!!!!!

APC....'nest of killers'!

Charliiee:
The easiest way to score popularity points in politics in this country is to make sure you get "arrested". If you really think Deji cares about Kanu/Biafra then congratulations you've just unlocked a whole new level of stupid.

Talk is cheap!why not go try the popularity game.....posterity will forgive him for atleast speaking out against injustice but the greatest enemy of humanity are those so called good people who keep quiet in the face of apparent injustice.
In the words of Wole Soyinka 'the man dies in all who keep quiet in the face of injustice'.

Truth is constant,one thing that unite people of conscience all over the world is TRUTH...while some children of hate will sleep online celebrating the unjust and secret trial of Nnamdi Kanu because of ethnic affiliation,those who have grown beyond ethnic chauvinism are joining hands with like minds all over the world to protest against this grave injustice. Injustice to one is injustice to all.
Until you realise you are part of humanity regardless of tribe,religion and political affiliation,you are going no where in life.
Kudos to Adeyanju and his ilks, we are proud to be associated with a beautiful mind like you. Is people like you that give one hope in Nigeria!

l love palmy,i no go lie

my papa na tapper,i no go lie

my mama na tapper,i no go lie

na unda palmy tree dey born mi sef,i no go lie
i will neva regret to be a tapper


kyaribility remains in my blood

I have great respect for this Emir,he is a 21st century northerner who can hold its own,anytime,any day and anywhere in the world. The first way to start solving any problem is by first of all identifying the problem and this is what the emir has done.
Northerners must stop living in self denial,there politicians knows this but wont dare say it,for political reasons.with the emir and his ilk in the north,i say all hope is not lost.

And what are they paying?

The abookis/herdsmen who dared kidnap Olu Falae - all numbering 9 or thereabout - have been sentenced to life imprisonment.

Yorubas will always come out tops!!

yes just like the twenty or so yorubas arrested after the Ile Ife crisis,including an oba,who are now the oni kuje's of kuje prison in Abuja! I also remember OPC and yoruba elders giving there usual 48hrs ultimatum last month....the next thing OPC will do is to protest round streets in Lagos,breaking eggs on the street and shouting 'ah omi ah mi OPC,ah kelode',be insulting every passer by and shouting 'ole oshi,olee oburuku,olee oda oo,etc. Let them quickly rush to the creek and fight and stop announcing it all over the media,typical of the yorubas!

Heavance:
Is he not the man that claims he is fighting for Niger Delta, but went ahead to invest massively in Benin republic?
I don't know why these youths believe his lies

keep quiet if you aint gat anything to say! Even if its true he built an university in Benin Republic,did it stop the struggle,yet Dangote goes to Lagos to build a refinery and you praise him to high heavens,what happens to building it in his native Kano,igbos build big business empires all over Nigeria and its ok,what happens to building it only in the East. Exxon mobil builds its company in Nigeria and not France,thats ok by you. Every businessman has his targeted clients and customers that most times influences where he wants to build whatever.
More so going by a experience,one can tell any investment in Ijaw land by this former militants is likely to be hunted down by unfriendly government,example is APC using state apparatus to bring down there perceived enemies,Nigerians now knows better. Imagine that govt Tompolo had a big investment in gbaramatu,PMB's military scavengers would long have destroyed it when they were looking for me.
As for Urhobo and Ishikeri,the leaders of this two groups has always played the judas in the Niger-delta struggle(though there masses are all wonderful and great people),how else can one explain the fact that they are reducing the struggle to frivolities and assuming that the visit of the vice president is the key to the solution. Yes Osibanjo asked oil firms to relocate there headquaters to Niger Delta,thats mere rhetorics and political talks,we all know that it is a huge joke and can never be followed up by this anti Niger Delta and anti masses government.
osibanjo should save his visit for action!

FG should as a matter urgency, declare state of emergency in Lagos,we cant just sit down and watch our uniform men killed at will. Lagos and its environs are no longer safe for habitation,militancy,organized crimes,street wars and touting is now the order of the day.
The crime rate in Lagos is becoming embarrassing,even if it involves instituting a military authority while Ambode and his crew step aside,so that things can be made right,it is acceptable to us. security of life and property should be paramount in the commercial nerve center.

we shouldnt be bothered about the location,let it be built first and if you observe,most part of Anambra is developed and also choked up,i think it is time to open up Anambra east,where you have more lands,its basically agrarian in nature and of course the discovery of oil in that zone,makes it a point of interest.
While commerce and industry is more pronounce in other zones of the state,we should now capitalize on cheaper and available land in Anambra east. The basic thing is that Anambra remains one in success! Am from Anambra central.

Obiano dont have control over the Nigerian Army,so i found hard to agree with the above commentators that he ordered the shooting,however this is another opportunity for him to clear the air,he has to as a matter of neccessity institute an impartial committee of notable Anambarians to investigate the incident of that day and what led to the massacre. This is the only way he can win the november elections.

Buying JAMB form for the indigent in his constituency is a good move,i seriously appreciate the way Igbos lay serious emphasis on education,in other places, politicians are busy buying arms and ammunitions for there peole,grooming touts,street urchins while others are busy building mosque for there constituency.

when will Nigerian politicians stop paying people to protest for them...rather than protest against the hunger in the land and the insurgency,they are here wasting their time.

Anambra will always get it right....round peg in round hole.

Am surprise how all the president men are now so fixated on the Dino Malaye certificate issue but they were all screaming on top of there voices that PMB can rule Nigeria with NEPA paper..that it doesnt 'marrarr'!.
Though am not holding brief for Dino Malaye because i also see him as part of the establishment that has kept Nigeria in this present state however even within the upper chambers,we have senators with school cert and thats about the qualification for being a senator. So why the brouhaha!

The beginning and The end
He who was,who is and still going to be
The Ancient of days
The unchangeable changer
The Lion of the Tribe of Judea
The mighty one in battle
The Lily of the valley
The Rose of Sharom
The balm of Gillead
The bright and morning star
The I am i am!
.....as for me and my house hold any time we call on him,he answers us!!!!happy sunday to all.

These are the people that ridicule Igbos on the forum daily with their unbridled stupidity. They call themselves ipob youths.

you are so much into ethnic slur that it is impossible for you to make contributions and nt look stupid and irritating,why nt get yourself a life,rather than hiding behind keyboards morning and night looking for percieved Igbo comments.
Dont you think that it is corruption of the highest order for PMB to sack the so called corrupt perm sec and at the same time hiding his name. If all were okay,as usual with APC media agents,his name would have flooded the entire news media.
Why protecting a corrupt official by keeping his name to yourself or is he bigger than the Dasuki's,former military chiefs and other opposition party chieftains undergoing media trials daily in Nigeria.

kollynxofodile:
Seems like d man brought it upon himself

is that all you've got to say,just hope and pray such fate does nt befall you and your family!
Life is truely 'short and brutish' in Nigeria.

Even among thieves there is honour,Aromates went too far,killing a lecturer,a supposedly elder Klansman was the height of it all.
You see in war,nobody can guarantee victory until the last day,if it ever comes. After the death of the lecturer what next,it is no longer a war between school decks,Norsemen(graduated members of vikings) must now brace up for bullets,they will forever watch there back in calabar,it is a vicious circle. The war was absolutely unnecessary,this is one crime too much by Aro baggars.
Klansmen are down already,they need fear no further fall. This is a very bad situation,i hope the culprits are brought to book by the police.

Nobody in his right senses will celebrate the death of another,the crisis in Ile Ife is pathetic and unnecessary.But what surprises me most is the kind of attention given to it by the powers that be.
Every other day, the news media is inundated with stories of massacre,genocide and ethnic cleansing by Fulani gunmen against the minority tribes and other Nigerians. Yet not much attention is given to these communities burnt down by Fulani terrorists.
I beg to ask,when has the lives and properties of Hausa-fulani become more important than that of other Nigerians.
Nigeria is a huge joke! Our leaders must be careful.presently in Nigeria,cows are rated higher in value than southerners and minority tribes. More effort is put in prevention of cattle rustling than in protection of vulnerable communities.
I speak for the voiceless.

Magu at the plenary hearing sounded out of touch with modern day financial crime operations,couldnt defend basic questions asked by the senators,looked ill prepared for the senate hearing.
However,left for some political arrest he made which basically was more like witch hunting the opposition and turning a blind eye on allegations and cases against the ruling party members,his undemocratic and arbitrary arrest of citizens,torture allegations,gestapo type operations etc.
I personally will give him pass mark for dealing with corrupt public servants,politicians et al and putting some level of fear among corrupt Nigerians.
Once more kudos to him for doing a good job. I hope he gets the needed approval from senate but must act proffessionally regardless of who is involved.
