Great2017:
I did not want to join issues with you but I have just a question for you and I need an honest response. Between the South and the North who is having a better quality of life?

I'd answer on his behalf.

It's surprisingly the north
Majority of the southerner still based in Nigeria are just suffering and smiling,they have it worse off than northerners inreality

TotoLGA:
you mean, Osibanjo cannot defeat Atiku even with the backing of Tinubu.

Yes,atiku is a tough nut to crack ,he is not a good luck Jonathan.

The champion has to do the fighting himself now

This is very critical!

With the uproar of Muslim-muslim ticket, Peter obi Igbo presidency, and a potential Fulani to Fulani transition.

I urge the south and middlebelt to demand clear projects that will be done for this two regions.

Why is this important!

Many people especially the youths do not really realise that one critical reason and factor which they do not take to account of why the southern and middlebelt Nigeria remains largely poor and disenfranchised is the defeat of Biafra which led to long years of northern military rule.

The northern military rulers immensely disenfranchised the south,not just Biafra (southeast) but including the south south and southwest.

The almost 40years of northern military dictatorships really pauperised the south.

A lot of projects and development efforts were done only in the north,completely neglecting the south which severely increased after the capital was moved to Abuja in 1991.

The south had some respite mainly in the Obasanjo and yaradua years.

Good luck was a lame duck but has oil money was flowing during his tenure the south ultimately benefited.

Then came Buhari, do not ever be deceived by the security situation in the north.

Alot of development efforts have gone to the north.
They are too numerous to mention.

Infact no president has done for the north what buhari did.

The northerners vote and believe in their own because it has been working for them.
Anytime a northerner is in power the educated class especially are well off and infrastructure grows in the north.

As for the middlebelt & south especially, they have been disenfranchised for so long they don't even know for the presidency means.
The southerners have learnt to make it all on their own albeit with blood and sweat.

This is not a good condition to be in when infact Nigerias resources comes majorly from the south.

The south would have been well off than south Africa and Egypt if they had ruled as long as northerners.

Since the south as been so brow beaten and subjugated, they do not know how to demand government development.

It's time to make real demands from any President that will emerge in 2023.

The era of being taken advantage of should be over.

Demand for real concrete projects not sweet talks of creating 3,million jobs,dollar equal to naira,or fighting corruption and boko haram,subsidy removal and cheap fuel.

Demand for expressways that need to be rebuilt,power plants to be set up,new ports to be built,refineries to be opened.,federal government job slots and open recruitment to federal agencies.
Federal housing and increase of salaries and wages.opening of river ports along the Niger,Agriculture boost.


The era of being cheated and taking for a ride needs to stop from 2023.Any government that doesn't meet at least 70% of its promises should be voted out.



The south and Middlebelt should wake up now.

ENOUGH is ENOUGH

Demand for real development from any President

All this Muslim-muslim ticket,obidient shit should stop.

Take what is yours,stop allowing them to cheat you and carry your wealth to Niger Republic or Dubai.

RZArecta:
As a Niger Delta man, I don't understand the concept of all these projects by the FG because they've been alien to me especially in the last seven years where my region has been abandoned by the government in all strata including housing, healthcare, education, power, railway etc. Congratulations to the North, na their turn now even though na we dey finance am one way or the other

You guys are just being cheated anyhow,

I need to earn better than I am currently earning.

I have just finished learning HTML,CSS and JavaScript.

What is the next step to take !

NB: I need better pay,am not greedy looking to be rich overnight

The yorubas did not stop the igbos from claiming PDP ticket

Themandator:
It took about several centuries of war, before Turkey became Muslim. Centuries....starting from the defeat of Heracilus in Syria-palestine in 632 AD to the fall of Constantinopole in the fifteenth century.

Also, Turkey...or the Eastern Roman empire...was an OLD empire...it was the last remnant of the ancient Roman empire that began around 200 or so BC....

Finally, the islamisation of the area...took several centuries

Turkey has a country was not Christian,the area was Christian but the country we now has Turkey today,modern Turkey was always Muslim.

Even Arabia didn't start Muslim,you are a Christian because the whites defeated your ancestors.

No one is born a Christian or muslim

Proudlyomonna:
And you think you can decieve any sensible Nigerian that voting for Tinubu and his Muslim-Muslim desperate emilokon agenda is a good idea
Chai zombie must sha think se everybody na zombie oo zombie like am
If Tinubu had the good of Nigeria and Southerners at heart He would have stepped down to campaign for Osibanjo or Obi ,so it can be easy to get a balancing to potray fairness and equity as enshrined in our constitution,but no all that matters to him is emilokon and power.
Apc is already a goner

Osinbajo cannot beat Atiku,Peter obi was a PDP man,why did those in PDP not step down for him,Peter obi was in PDP still just a week to their primaries,Peter obi didn't move to APC ,so how would tinubu step down for him?

You guys are so unreasonable and her playing with your children's future

ArewaNorth:
I'm a Fulani Northerner and adent supporter of Tinubu but the attitudes of many people in the South toward selling Tinubu is seriously damaging his reputation in the North. In your effort to sell Tinubu to people who won't vote for him even if u give them the earth and the heaven you hereby risk Ising it all. I swear before General Elections, many elders and clerics of those children making noise for that Party will be afraid and ask their people
to vote for PDP and surreptitiously explain to them that PDP is the only shortcut to their tribal Presidency.
Honestly, there is near zero political strategy and structure in the South. Tinubu is the heart beat and soul of political strategy and architecture of Southern political future but the ethno-religious jingoism of some Southerners risk giving u problem. Using ethno-religious strategy to sell Tinubu in the South is dangerous, very dangerous. Remember, Buhari was aspersed all sorts of names prior to 2015 Election but the neutral strategy taken in the South by Tinubu paid well but today he is the candidate and u can't sell him through better approaches. TINUBU should be sold on the basis of concrete, achievable policy objectives which should be carefully interpreted before coming out to public, all other sinister agenda should be left in his chest!

The northerners are showing signs of making the election an ethnoreligious strategy by decamping to the PDP,
The FOOLISH southerners meanwhile are not reading between the lines.

All I intend to do is highlite the error the south are making by their lack of political strategy especially at this critical time

Themandator:
Turkey was a Christian nation before it turned into a Muslim nation... We must guard against all appearances of evil..... From. Next Sunday Winners chapels sensitization will be full blown



8 years of Buhari plus 8 years of a southern Muslim and another 8 years of a northern Muslim plus late Yar’Adua 3 years will make our children forget Christ or belive they are visitors in Nigeria

Turkey was never a Christian nation

Sincerely I really pith the southerners,
What is coming for them will be ever more than they can envisage or imagine.
The southerners are selling their children into slavery( the masses children).

Most southerners aren't going to vote Peter obi,Peter obi will not win unless by a miracle of some sorts.

Most if them want to vote Atiku,because he can easily deceive them with an okowa.
And their hatred for TINUBU and the notion of do me I do you,they are fighting to spite the Yoruba instead if saving themselves.

I have warned many times on this platform. Whatever you do make sure Peter obi wins if you do not want TINUBU

I tell u,if Atiku wins,southerners will regret it from their soul.

A Fulani to Fulani transition is the apex and final victory of Fulanisation.

The presidency will never ever go back to the south except there is a war.

The Fulani will totally colonise and capture every aspect of the country.
What buhari cudnt do,Atiku will.

Ruga etc will finally be implemented.

Okowa is a complete lameduck.
The nigerdelta will be hardest hit,Atiku will completely abrogate southern resources to the northeast,not the Northwest this time
The Eastern Fulani will rise,and are more greedy than their Western counterparts.

The bokoharam destroyed region will be rebuilt by southern money will the south will dry up.

I am warning and warning

This is not a time to hate TINUBU.

The man is standing for the south like him or not.

If you don't want him,convince the Yorubas to support Peter Obi, for the joint southern future.

If the southerners don't unite under Peter obi or a TINUBU.

The south will be depleted,your children are the ones going to suffer.

Atiku is buhari promax.

A Fulani to Fulani transition is final victory for usman Dan fodio and Fulanisation.

BE WARNED!

ElSudani:
Who routed the Biafrans at Ore? The Sudanese?
Besides nine out of 10 times reasonable people will choose peace over war.

The war at ore was led by a Fulani, with tiv soldiers,Yorubas were not much represented

The Yoruba have not known war for a very very long time,the Yoruba have almost a century of peace.

Nigerias war omen doesn't look good o

The northerners have known war through bokoharam etc,the nigerdelta through the militancy years and the igbos through civil war.

The Yoruba have been peaceful for so many years.

I get a sense that things might get hot hot for the Yoruba soon.

Something big is coming

Can the Yoruba sustain constant onslaught like other tribes have done?

This remains to be seen

Zonefree:
Tinubu should collapse his structure for Peter Obi, that's the only way we can achieve southern unity.

Very unlikely, but that is the best solution as things currently stand for the future of southern Nigeria

If Atiku wins in 2023, it's going to be Fulani rule for at least the next 16years,because after Atiku another Fulani will be given the ticket either in the ruling or opposition party.

2023 is going to be the decider of the future of Nigeria.
If you think Nigerias problem is over with the end of APC you are joking.

There's going to be lots of issues Nigeria will contend with.

The only way things will change might be if someone like Peter obi wins or tinubu.

If Atiku wins which is looking very likely, it will create a renewed destabilisation of Nigeria.
Because all power will be taken by the Fulani for a very long lime.

Agitations and strife will crop up.

The Yorubas need to get their glocks ready,
.The Yoruba are going to have a hell of a time.

The Yoruba region might become the seat of agitations and crises.if care isn't taken there might be all out war.

I sense the long reign of peace in yorubaland might be coming to an end.

There's going to be lots and lots of crises in the coming years if an Atiku wins.

The Fulani do not seem to have much achi3vement outside Nigerian Political life

The Fulani do not have regard for the sanctity of life.They kill very easily, fortunately they are surrounded by people that have higher regard for life

stonemasonn:
I disagree

It's true,a Fulani can easily pass of as a typical Edo,or Yoruba or Igbo man,but a Hausa is always distinct,the Hausa are pure nilo Saharan, while the Fulani are negro

EtinosaDLaw:
They didn't lead any war, stop lying. How can people who barely migrated from futa jalon lead a war against a sovereign nation? Stop trying to twist history. The war was fought by mostly Yoruba and Hausa soldiers, remove Yoruba from the equation, do you think Hausas would've defeated them? Please shut up

Was fought but by Yorubas and Hausa's under Fulani leadership

Bridget95:
did you know that this country is owned by Britain

Made by Britain is more appropriate, the country is owned by the Fulani fully now

kettykin:
I still don't get this, is Gowon now igbo, I thought it was even igbo soldiers that invaded the hear of Fulani land and wiped out their leadership. But let's leave this till after 2023 election

Why don't most Nigerians get deep stuffs,everything can't be straight forward,

Gowon was a proxy for the Fulani, he was controlled by the Fulani

Bridget95:
its idiotic to say fulani conquered igbos during the civil war. Fulani as a single tribe didn't fight the igbos. It was the entire Nigeria together with the world powers such as Russia, USA etc that helped Nigeria because of their interests

The Fulani led the war, whoever participated fought for the Fulani, knowingly or not

EtinosaDLaw:
They led which war? Are you drunk on camel piss? Name one SS or SE state where an emir is installed, Osinwin.

Am talking about the recent Nigeria civil war ,it was a Fulani led war,the aim was not to install emirs like in their past wars but to gain total control of Nigeria, which they succeeded in getting

Freestainworld:
I don't know the brain u are typing with, defeated the Igbos? Maybe you should asked them to install their emirs in the east too.

The Fulani rule the igbos today under Nigeria ,igbos used to hold sway and control of Nigeria till their defeat by the Fulani in the civil war

Fireboy02:
How did they defeat d igbos? It was Nigeria against d igbos. A small tribe against majority

They led the war, so the victory is theirs

How did the Fulani manage to keep the Hausa nation in subjection till this day,the fulani own the house of the princes of Nupe the Nupe paramount king,emir of bida is Fulani, emir of Ilorin Fulani, the led the islamization of the ebiras,down to parts of Edo in the deep south.

The way they keep the large hausa nation in subjection is a wonder ,their strategy of statehood and power dominance needs to be studied.

Aside the fulani ,Only the Benin are known to have ruled other Nigerian tribes.

The Fulani rule the over the Nupe and parts of yorubaland,they rule parts of Edo ,the auchi area.

They conquered the igbos in the Nigeria civil war in more recent times.

They rule Nigeria solely either by themselves or by proxy.

How a small wandering people's were able to pull all these off is just amazing.

The long treks must be a factor in their strengths, endurance and resiliance and control power,plus being earlier lettered and introduced to the horse,( which is a big factor in wars of the past).

What many do not know is that the Fulani are most closely related to southern Nigerian tribes than the Hausa, the Fulani speak the Niger-Congo language as most Nigerian southerners, this is not only that they adopted the language like many people think but they have southern Nigerian blood.

The Fulani actually even resemble southerners than they resemble Hausa's.

The Hausa have more of Eurasian and Arabic blood than the Fulani

Why is Benin so bad according to most comments,what's wrong with Benin people, how come they have been reduced to Yahoo and olosho people

TheSANews:
I see. We're close and I believe we share the same plight.
My friend is from there and she bears Yoruba name.

Yea

TheSANews:
What's your relationship with them?

None at all,am from magongo

TheSANews:
Aren't you Okun?
I've seen your comments before.

Nope

What are the advantages of Benin,like what does make Benin stand out for those that are very used to Benin or from Benin

And also what are the disadvantages and downsides of Benin,what do Benin people want to change about their city

Mandate2023:
Not they it we......bcoz we want our own state..okun state to return to south west region

Push for it now,like ekiti you can own your state,but what will now happen to those in lokoja
