I just can't explain the joy of getting home to see a well lit up house, cold drinks, fan and Tv. You go to bed with your AC/Fan ( starving the mosquitoes) and you wake up in the morning, and there's still light with all devices charged ready for another day of work .... It makes life easier for the hard working Nigerian..

seems to be between B and C

The Igbo Delegates Assembly (IDA), an Umbrella body of Ndigbo in the 19 Northern states of the country has called for caution over aspersions against the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, noting that if his administration fails the country has failed. The IDA also expressed its unflinching support for the fight against corruption which they added must be through without sparing anybody no matter how highly placed. The group stated this in a statement jointly signed by its president general, Chief Chi Nwogu and secretary general, Auston Ifedinezi after its general meeting in Makurdi, Benue State. They noted that instead of attacking the activities of this administration on the slightest excuse, Nigerians ought to rally support for the new administration to succeed in the interest of all. “We call on all Nigerians and the world at large to see the present administration under the leadership of His Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari as the will of God Almighty and give him maximum support, through prayers, constructive advice, trust, good conduct etc. Knowing that if Mr. President fails, Nigeria has failed and if he succeeds, Nigeria has succeeded. “We are unanimous in our resolve to support President Buhari’s zero tolerance for corruption. We are solidly behind him in his avowed determination to recover the stolen money belonging to Nigeria and the attendant punishment, no matter who is involved. We suggest that the investigation/ probe start from 1999 to date.” The group equally advised President Buhari to give every Nigerian equitable sense of belonging; adding that such could help in addressing the incessant quest for self-determination by some ethnic nationalities as well as religious sentiment which it regretted is fast assuming alarming dimension.

Buhari was called a religious extremist with a plan to declear sharia

vayne:
That is not a major difference,they all have similarities ....same religion,same culture,etc.

who told u they have the sme culture nd religion?

vayne:
Give me 2(just two) major differences b/w NW,NE and NC....

And i'll give you 10 that differentiates SW,SE,and (there nothing like SS,but i know you will want to argue it). So i'll add it.

do you know between Taraba, Adamawa and Gombe you have the highest number of tribes in an area in the world?..
Google it

"Hypocrisy is when you lump diverse regions and peoples as NW, NE, and NC together as 'north' but when it comes to the south, you try to differentiate between SS, SE, and SW. So in this argument, Kachuwku, the NNPC boss is not an Igbo, but a Kilba man appointed as SFG is Hausa-Fulani. This is being clever by half.".... Solomon Dalong

Senate President: North Central
Majority Leader: North East
Majority whip: North West
Senate= Northern Agenda

it's quite unfortunate that every action by Mr president or any leader is perceived based on tribe or religion or both. Nigerians should look at actions or in actions of leaders beyond religion,tribe or regions.

The United States has announced a $5 billion contribution to the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) in order to boost military operations against Boko Haram insurgency. Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the US assistant secretary, Bureau of African Affairs,  announced this at a news briefing via telephone from the African Union Summit on Monday. “We have been working with Nigeria as well as the African countries innovation to address their concerns about Boko Haram because we don’t see this as just a Nigerian problem,” NAN quoted her as saying. “We are having discussions with President Buhari on how we might bolster our support. We have already been working with them and providing information. “We are providing some training and support and we’ll love to work with the new administration to see how we might increase the level of support to Nigeria. “At the same time, we’ve just announced at the venue of the AU, a five billion dollar contribution to the Multinational Task Force. We are also providing some equipment and support and we have a number of meetings with the countries who are members of the Multinational Joint Task Force to look at other areas we might support.” Thomas-Greenfield said that Africa had faced “some really horrendous terrorist attacks” over the past two years, citing the West Gate and Garissa University attacks in Kenya and Boko Haram attacks, particularly the kidnapping of the Chibok girls, in Borno state. “While I would not say Africa is under siege, Africa has some major security challenges that require a very strong and very concerted strategic effort by African countries and partners to address the security concerns of Africa,” she continued. “The United States is providing a strong support to AU on security, as it has a strong partnership with Africa on security. We are working closely with the Lake Chad Basin countries: Nigeria, Chad, Niger and Cameroon to address the issue of Boko Haram.” She said America had so far trained some 250,000 African peacekeepers, and expressed its highest commitment to security on the continent.
