@ZIDDY

WHAT ABSOLUTELY INSULTING TO THE INTELLIGENCE OF AN ORANGUTAN. YOU HAVE JUST ESPOUSED NEANDERTHAL SOCIOLOGY. THERE ARE IGBOS THAT WILL NEVER HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH CRIME.

YOU ARE A WICKED PERSON. WHY ? YOU ARE PUTTING THE PEOPLE THAT SPEAK IGBO ON TRIAL. THIS IS VERY GUTTERISH AND YOU MUST BACK DOWN ON THIS EVIL ACT.

I AM FROM OSUN STATE / LAGOS STATE. SOME SEE ME AND THINK I AM IGBO OR BETTER PUT OMO NNA. WE NEED TO STOP LABELLING WE WILL REGRET IT. THIS IS AN ASSET NOT A LIABILITY.

THIS EVIL MUST STOP DON'T WE KNOW THAT THIS WHY WE COULD EASILY BE COLONISED? SO WHAT DO YOU SAY THAT PEOPLE THAT HAVE MARRIED OTHER TRIBES ? AND HAVE MIXED CHILDREN ?

I AM VERY SAD HERE AND I FEEL THAT WHAT OUR BRAVE MEN HAVE DIED FOR IS GOING IN VAIN. WHEN WE WAR ALL TRIBES FIGHT FOR NIGERIA.

THE FAKE DRUG THING WHO HELPED TO CRACK THIS PROBLEM DORA EVEN AGAINST THE PERIL OF HER LIFE. YOU HAVE SENTENCED DORA AKUNYILI TO THE JAIL OF TRIBAL HATRED.

THE HATE IN YOU IS GROWING DECEITFULLY AND YOU MUST STOP IT NOW BEFORE YOU CONVERT SOME OTHER PERSON.

All the disciples of Lord Lugard.

In your quest to Tribalise Crimes you will fail woefully.

In your Quest to Nigerianise crime you will have enormous failure.

There different types of 419 and you must know that this game is Just as witchCraft.

That is you are first deceived and them you begin to deceive others.

In ghana they always keep trying to Nigerianise crime as though that will solve crime. You must have a scientific approach to crime solving it.

Crime is one thing that is practiced and learned.

In America today the Blacks can commit a crime and go scout free because they can PLAY THE VICTIMS OF RACIAL LABELLING.

There is online scam come from the USA. Even there is alot of scam that N.G.O'S are involved in. The UN is involved in scams but will OPRAH talk about it no.


We know that there are Criminal that are Nigerians and they are no different from an Italian in another part of Crime.

You must know that If a Nigerian is seen and confirmed a criminal and it is generalized it then set a precedence in any competent court that If a Nigerian guilty or not guilty could be freed if the counsel can proof the state is Biased.

That is why not until a conviction is giving we can not call all Nigerians 419



@texazzpete

You make me Laugh here Who told you that there are no fraud in USA. You will soon tell me that the US citizen are Angels.

Crime differs from region to region in the way it is executed. You must be on planet pluto when american soldier were torturing Iraqs in Abu Ghriab Prison!

Humans are wicked but there are some that stand out. We cannot TRIBALIZE OR NATIONALISE CRIME IT DOESNOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.


IF A NIGERIAN IS CAUGHT IN A CRIME AND HE IS SENTENCED THE MATTER ENDS THERE. ALL WE CAN DO IS TO MAKE SURE WE PREVENT HIM FROM CONTINUING IN THE CRIME AGAIN. WHERE HE COMES FROM SHOULD BE FOR DESCRIPTIVE PURPOSES WE ARE ON TRIAL HERE WE AND OUR CHILDREN'S CHILDREN AND WE ALL COULD BE SENTENCED TO PRISON CRIMINAL PROPENSITY.


STOP THIS LABELLING STOP I SAY THERE ARE HONEST NIGERIANS THAT WILL NOT TOUCH 419 WITH A 10 FOOT POLE.

Just don't take up arms because OBJ is a soldier and he knows warfare very well and from what I have seen he has a HIGH HONOR IN THE ARMY.

THE MILITARY IS BEHIND HIM BECAUSE OF SOME THINGS I HAVE OBSERVED HIM. OBJ HAS RANGER SOLDIER MENTALITY AND WHEN YOU HAVE THIS YOUR MEN ARE READY TO DIE FOR YOU.

look at the History of the USA it was no where what we have now if you need to remember that America did not give Blacks the chance to vote, THE USA had a scared past but what put them past this is Leadership. We have a good leadership there are signs I have seen in Obj I cant explain it to you.

THERE ARE CORRUPT PEOPLE THAT ARE READY TO TAKE LIFE TO DEFEND THE MONEY THEY HAVE SPENT.

@ Dayokanu

I will never go into the gutter of tribalism.

But I will tackle all your question.

What I am saying is that for him to have a say in the politics of the South West he must be able to point to something he has done for the South West.

You can say what he has done for your part of the country. It's a well known fact some part of the country would benefit from a President than some.As bad as IBB was people in Minna like him because he developed Minna. .


Very flawed statement go check Minna those time I know have some that was in Charge a military installation in Minna please don't go there IBB built third mainland in lagos as corrupt as he was. What corrupts this military people is Civilian tuition Most Soldiers don't know how to steal money. THE MILITARY IS A WEAPON SO AS TRIBALISM IS A WEAPON.

You are talking with one that knows the game.
When most of us were celebrating Abacha's death some people in the North were mourning him

well if you were celebrating the death of Abacha that is your right. Please Who are the US you are talking about Yar Aduas family and the rest northern people.

Who is a Northerner? One that speaks Hausa? or a TIVI NUPE KANURI BEROMS IGALA please don't even go there.

If not that the north has enjoyed being President for a long time do you think their roads would be Okay or that they would have more states and Local government ?

You tried tribalism it did not work now you want to HAUSANIZE THE NORTH ( I AM LAUGHING HERE) More of the cheap vermin from the Parasitic Elite. Some people dont know nothing about the so called north. Some of This people have a HIGH INTEGRITY and there are some that are corrupt from toe to teeth. Some dont send your millions. Look at Yar adua he saved 6 billion for his state Lagos that has made 3 trillion naira what did he do ? Should i say the southerners are corrupt? no there are southerners with a High integrity and are ready to die for this cause.



Why do you think that roads in the North are better than in the south I think it is because more Northerners have ruled and have settled their part of the country. Or why do you think some part of the country are complaining of marginalization?


Nna Men Cool down and Check with your state Government how much was released for road then come back to this place and talk. See there is poverty of immense measure in the north some people are studying on the ground in the Northern parts of Nigeria. Check out Ezekwesili's Cry on the situation of Education in Nigeria some thought it was a village in Niger republic or Chad. THE HAUSA TRIBE TOO HAS BEEN MARGINALIZED

LETS US STOP THIS TRIBALISM NOW

This is very below the belt we are Nigerians. If you have a problem with him let us hear it don't bring in Tribalism. He holds the Office the PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA, HE OR ANYONE CEASES TO BE A YORUBA MAN OR TRIBAL LEADER WHEN HE GETS INTO THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT.

THE SOVEREIGNTY AND THE TREASURY

This is the fundamental collective hold of a true states

1 The Sovereignty is the collection of

a) The honesty of the people

If you have a man in charge of money meant to be used for a development of a state and he is dishonest with the information and money he spends it on himself no amount of money you give him will satisfy his wants.


b) The Patriotism of the people

When someone can Sabotage a state for personal gains.
Look carefully If water gets to the state the people that were selling water before would be afraid of the solution to the problem. The solution will take food from their mouths. It is not everybody that should sell water.

c) The hard work of the people
A man must work hard because there is dignity in labor. You can not exchange work for laziness and expect to be paid. If you reward a lazy man he will develop more lazy men. No amount of money can buy Laziness.

d) The Confidence of the people
The people must dream If Not THEY WILL HAVE NIGHTMARES The trust is one Good thing that you cannot use money to buy.


e) The Education and professionals (Wisdom Technique and knowledge)

From Ancient technique of farming and common sense problem solving technique form the OLD MEN OF INTEGRITY. (this is why Lagos should have very good Transport system because of the old cannot run after MOLUE EVEN IF YOU GIVE HIM ALL THE MONEY. YOU HAVE TO CREATE A SYSTEM.

f) The bravery of the People( Ability to take risk)

One very great asset of the people. There are people can stay in desert or in the ship for weeks and survive. There is evil and good in Bravery, you can choose to look at the Good and reward it. You will see someone that is about to die on the street and you risk being called a ritualist if you help him perhaps he dies. There are so many brave people in prison there so many lawyers that are there doing not BRAVE to HELP THEM. NO AMOUNT OF MONEY CAN BUY BRAVERY.

g) The love that they have for each other
When you see some one in need and you help him that is not Love that is Kindness. Love is looking for Good to do to you fellow person or Neighbor. You cannot BUY THIS WITH MONEY.

h) The religious morals of the people

THEIR IS SO MANY GOOD THINGS IN DIFFERENT RELIGIONS THAT MONEY CANT NOT BUY.

i) The family that makes up the states

IF You have a family that the husband is in japan and the wife in england you will see that the child is in danger of misbehaving, no amount of money will cure the behavior of that Child. The father and mother is their the child intelligence is very high.

j) The tribes and dialect with their languages

This is one of the greatest asset but because we have hard very bad leadership it has been used as a weapon. If you here a Ibo or Yoruba Guy speaking Ibo you will be very much accepted or imagine a Hausa man speaking Ibo very fluently. If I were to suggest that we send people to learn Ibo language because there are many people that speak Ibo than GERMAN. In Singapore I discovered that you must speak/understand more than one to get a Job.

In Ghana you can see some one speak four languages! it give you a high sense of patriotism and acceptance.

All this are assets not Liabilty They are more than money Ten million times.

this is the type of discourse that I love.

The STATE GOVERNMENT HAVE ENOUGH POWER ALREADY! They are joking. there is no other power they need. The Power the state Governments have they have only used it to steal money and bribe the state Rep and houses of assembly.

When they are more responsible you will see that the state will enjoy. As a leader you need to use the resources you have. If you blow it away and cry that you want more. How do you justify that you will be Judicious with more given, out of all the 36 states Only one was able to save. I can understand with Donald Duke he had a lot of investment on the ground in the billions and it will be yeilding over 100 billion naira every year as he projects.

Tell me what the other states are doing with the power and the allocation they are given.
PoliticsRe: What Have The Ibo People Done by Backslider(m): 12:38pm On Apr 12, 2007
Thank you much very my brother.

I have read your response but we must shift our failures away from tribalism, I say it is cheap. anything that is good for Lagos is good for all.

To you concern I lay this at the hand of the governors, you will soon see what I am saying when the Governors begin to go to Jail.

There is so much power that a state Governor has just go and check the constitution you will see. A governor can do things on his own or without the federal Government. You must be however responsible to how you run the state to the federation and the citizens of your state.

The state government is supposed to be held responsible.

I will ask what if we had no OIL? will the states not survive.

Lagos state should be one of the richest state but because we have Tinubu a corrupt man there is no development. Please take a trip to Singapore and then come back.

Or how did Yar Adua save 6 billion naira when others are owing please ask Tinubu how much lagos state makes a day. Try and look at the government allocation for the states.

You can not eat your cake and have it. You must vote people that will have the state at heart. That is why The votes must not allow anyone that stole money to stand trial.

Ibos I respect so much they are as important as an Ibibio man. (Those Ibo guys are doing a good Job in the OBJ Government)

It is very cheap Politics to play one tribe against the other because we want power. Try and look for the difference between Hutu and a Tutsi and then come back and ask me why the killing of 800,000 people .

Divisiveness is cheap we must stop it. Look at this people up they some are palling with the other "tribal enemy" some marry their children out to keep the class thing on. Tell me in the Biafra war Only the Igbo fought on the side of Ojukwu?

The war failed because The other component a Yoruba civilian In the name of AWOLOWO knew nothing about War. You don't fight a war with a civilian that does not know anything about war.

@4play

You have done a yo mans job. as the suggestion from Seun is very dangerous. I used to think along this line before also and later I have seen the evil in this.

The Sovereignty of a state is Good enough to Get Goods and service for free or lease. I have learned in business that you must Bargain from a Higher Ground. The Americans will tell you this " never talk from a point of weakness " Check out the battle of Alamo

The two things that we have Collectively is one THE SOVEREIGNTY AND THE TREASURY

1 The Sovereignty is the collection of

a) The honesty of the people
b) The Patriotism of the people
c) The hard work of the people
d) The Confidence of the people
e) The Education and professionals (Wisdom Technique and knowledge)
f) The bravery of the People( Ability to take risk)
g) The love that they have for each other
h) The religious morals of the people
i) The family that makes up the states
j) The tribes and dialect with their languages

All this are assets not Liabilty They are more than money Ten million times.

You must appreciate that the government that does not know bring out this is a failure in the making.

2 Treasury

a) Taxation
b) Land
c) Water Resources
d) Vegetation
e) Mineral resources
f) Air space ( remember you made close to a billion dollars by selling licenses for GSM people to use) some gave it out free and are angry that they did so i reside in a country that is an example.
g) Cash Which include monies of the reserve that we get from every thing do from IT to Gas


Money is not everything all leaders when voted have all these but it depends on how you use them.

It gots nothing to do with race or nationality if you can see it and you know how to use to your advantage. But the citizen must be task to see their potential the problem will now be if the leaders show Good example.

The media can play games with our minds but the some will see through them if the leadership maintain the Integrity in the face of media bashing.

Their must be in Nigeria the Good pool of Junior leadership that will be based on integrity and hard work. Baba works very hard just as the past leaders of Japan. A leader must have less sleep because he must be on top of things.

Most leaders that take their people from poverty to riches have very bad image. Imagery is very little in leadership people may tend to want to worship you but you must resist this. They will want to play tribalism you must resist this also. I know that you cant play tribal card with Obasanjo you will loose Big time that is why he has so much trouble in his own tribes.

I am for real I understand and can read write the major local language here TWI.

There is Light off but You have security now. Dont get me wrong the situation is not as Naija.

The Situation Shall Depreciate if nothing is done. Ghana must make available other forms of energy or Go the way of Nigeria.

If Ghana does not Get stable Supply of Energy they will immediately start having Citizens looking for other means to get electricity and the DISTRIBUTION NET WORK AND GENERATION NETWORK will be abandoned. Already people are buying Generators the price of generators have shut up by 70% ! They will soon start buy Fuel in Gallons and soon they will start reselling it.

This will bring rise to queues in the filling stations. When this happens on the Low level Check out what will happen at the High Level! Government official will be involved in this and the will determine the supply chain.

I am on the ground here and when I am talking with Ghanaians they wonder How I have all the info well it is Just I am always interested in Leadership and How it affects followership.

Ghana however have a Chance because the Rawlings Factor is still very Much around. Understand he is from the Minority Ethnic tribe and he is a man that has integrity but people say he stole money. I can say that he is the poorest African head of state. He travels like a common man because the NPP have striped him of his priviledges.

He had so many people that have betrayed him and they are still betraying him. The Governing party use any friction in the NDC (opposition) and they play it out in the press so that they(NDC) become more unpopular. The people around Rawlings have failed him big time because Rawlings did not know LEADERSHIP AS IT IS IN POLITICS.

The press here is not helping matters they are in bed with the NPP and press is silent but speaks out only when the NDC talks or there is a fault with them. There is a lot of spin doctors here and they have credibilty because they have either been to Jail in the military years of Rawlings PNDCL.

Though people are going to Jail but none of the RULING PARTY MEN HAVE EVER BE SENT TO JAIL EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE NO IMMUNITY.

GHANA IS NOT YET LIKE NAIJA BUT IT MAY SOON BE WORSE THAN NAIJA SOON.

let me first speak in Ghana pidgin " Charlie I dey laf ur yan cos e no ehyan" I cant help you with interpretation.

First of all Ghana has very little manufacturing. Ah I don't know where to start to educate you on Ghana. Ok let me start from the top.

Ghana Economy is a Prostitute

1) No Indigenous business
2) Fuel prices have Gone up so many times ( I have lost count)
3) The electricity problem is very much here (based Akosombo Dam there is water depletion because no rain)

4) The companies (if there is any) here are folding up it is better to import than to manufacture here in Ghana.
5) Budget of Ghana is funded 80% by Aid !!!!!!!
6) The foreign guys here are Just having a very free day.
7) Ghanaians are Erroneously rated high by book people
cool The elite like book analysis
9) Unlike Nigerians the people are patient but they are getting more agitated.
10) there is High Xenophobia Tribalism Cronysm and corruption
11) Ghana has no Economy now
12) Nigeria is helping Ghana if not for Naija Ghana would be sold by this Elite
13) The Price of Cement is 100,000 cedis this about 1500 Naira
14) Ghana is now becoming the headquarter of Fraud.


I can go on and on.

though there is security here but that will disintegrate if problem of power is not solved because people will start being looking for means to solve the energy.

Very Good response from you.

THE WORK THAT THE GREAT SON OF NAIJA IS DOING IN FINANCE SECTOR IS JUST TOO MUCH. SOLUDO IS DOING SO MUCH I WILL NOT MOVE HIM FROM THERE BECAUSE THE FINANCE ISSUE IS A LONG TERM ISSUE WE HAVE TO SOLIDIFY.

ATIKU IS ANOTHER QUESTION. YOU MUST KNOW THAT ATIKU HAS FOLLOWING AND IN LEADERSHIP YOU MIGHT HAVE TO MOVE WITH SOME BAGGAGE UNTIL YOU CAN SANITIZE LEADERSHIP. GOOD LEADERSHIP IS BY EXAMPLE NOT BY SHOUTING.

THE OFFICE OF LEADERSHIP IS VERY IMPORTANT YOU MUST KNOW THAT WHEN YOU MALIGN OR EMBARRASS THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENCY OR VICE YOU ARE MAKING IT LOOK ATTRACTIVE TO IRRESPONSIBLE PEOPLE AND THAT IS WHY I PERCEIVE THAT OBJ IS VERY SLOW.

THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT IS NOT A PERSON IT IS AN INSTITUTION. THE PERSON MAY BE CRIMINAL BUT THE INSTITUTION MUST BE LEFT OUT OF THIS.

LEADERSHIP IS AN INSTITUTION BY GOD.

YOU CAN NOT BECAUSE FATHERS RAPE OR ARE IRRESPONSIBLE TO THEIR KIDS DESTROY THE INSTITUTION OF FAMILY. YOU CAN HOW EVER EXPOSE THEM AND THEIR SINS WHEN THEY HAVE BEEN FOUND OUT.

THE GOVERNORS AND SOME LEADERSHIP HAVE EMBEZZLED MONEY THEY HAVE PEOPLE THAT FOLLOW THEM AND BECAUSE WE ARE SUBJECT TO THEIR POWER AND THEY ARE ACCOUNTABLE TO US WE HAVE SHOULD ALL HAVE THE PATIENT TO WAIT FOR THEM TO FINISH AND THEY WILL HAVE THEIR DAY IN COURT.

A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN KICKED OUT PDP FROM WHERE I STAND I BELIEVE OBJ HAS PROBLEMS WITH THEIR INTEGRITY. WE AS A NATION SHOULD SPEAK OUT IF WE SEE WRONG WHETHER A OR B IS COMMITTING IT. A LOT OF GOVERNORS WILL STAND TRIAL FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN AND SOME WILL GO TO JAIL THAT IS FOR SURE. WE NEED TO DO THINGS BY THE RULE OF LAW.

THE LEADER MUST TAKE RESPONSIBILITY OF HIS ACTION. THE ENERGY MATTER WILL BE SOLVED. JUST BY WILL POWER AND MONEY CANNOT SOLVE THE MATTER YOU MUST HAVE DUE DILIGENCE. YOU MUST HAVE YOUR GROUND INTELLIGENCE WORK IN ANYTHING YOU DO.

THERE IS NO ARMY THAT DEFEATS YOU WITHOUT INTEL YOU MAY THINK I AM IMAGINING THINGS BUT IF YOU CAN JUST TRAVEL OUT OF NAIJA TO OTHER COUNTRIES YOU WILL SEE WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT.

1) The war on fake drug is not yet won
2) The fake drug is Entrepenual
3) Power supply has Military Implication for our foes and fiend
4) Power Supply has Economic Implication for our foes and fiend
5) Power supply is an institutional problem that Energy mafias dont want to relinquish hold on.


With power Issue if you can make it a level playing feild you will have this mafias come and invest. The Mafias are now fully on ground in Ghana here and we are having light problems. This Guys have agents in the power sector and they pay and send the kids of the people in power sector abroad.

You need to know the problem so that you can solve it. That is why i commend Bola Ige for Owing up. The guy are very sophisticated and you need to know this and respect you ENEMY it will give you understanding of how you can defeat it.

I also say that there is no problem that cannot be solved but one must be very quiet and be thoughtful (prayerful) so that the solutions can come out. Every problem has a solution especially when you do a proper diagnoses of the problem.

With the Late Bola Ige he did not do a proper Diagnoses of the problem. I have learnt to always act as if there nothing at stake when I am looking for the cause of a problem Bola had a high intergrity but very little intelligence of the situation on ground.

If I were the Late Mr Ige I would have sent Sniffers on the Ground with Tapes and Hidden cameras To get concrete info on the ground, so of this info you will use to nail the officials and if they are acting up I would have released it to the media.


Intelligence work destroys the invincibilty of Criminals and there crime.

Now the work done by NERC is Good and it will solve the problem. There are many ways to skin a cat this is just one.

Thank you very much this is why i feel Obj or any who succeed him Needs very honest people. I was surprised when I saw OBJ honoring ABACHA'S son after all they did to him.

This Guy is a True state's man i tell you.

I have info of what was done to him in solitary confinement and I thought it was normal if he retaliated then but he is forgiving and rewarding Abacha's Good works as an excellent soldier this beats my mind.

I know what this thing means and I am very sorry that i did not believe in Obj earlier.

I salute you OBJ You are a Soldier and a true Patriot.
