Nicklaus619: At the end, we are both saying same thing, lion are Territorial, but they are also bullies and smooth criminals especially the male lions, they love stealing the kill of the tigers most times and yes male lions are mostly lazy and they hate hunting, they mostly stay back and wait for the lioness to make a kill, the male lion eats from the kill, bleeps all the concubines in his clan/territory and then roar to continue marking his territory and telling other males to keep off 
The amazing thing is that I have seen where lion kill tiger in many occasion and where tiger kills lions too but the amazing thing is that they don't eat each other after the kill, lion don't eat tiger when it kills it and so are tigers The smart money will be betting on a tiger in a fight with a lion. 8/9 times out of 10 the tiger will come out tops. The weight of a full grown tiger makes it a mismatch. Think of Isreal Adesanya squaring up against a fighter in a higher wieght category. Well, he already did and we all know the outcome. Same theory applies here really.

Danielnino00: D'tigers final list.
Josh Okogie
Jahlil Okafor
Jordan Nwora
Precious Achiuwa
Chiemeze Metu
Miye Oni
Gabe Vincent
KZ Okpala
Ike Nwanu
Obi Emenago
Ekpe Udoh
Caleb Agada I'm not surprised by any person listed here, they've all earned their place though I would have thought Ekpe Udoh would have been dropped for Gbinije. Gbinije as a bench player is capable of coming on and dropping some big 3s (possibly, I stand to be corrected our best 3 points shooter). In my best judgment, Okafor and Precious can rotate that position without missing Udoh. My hot takes. |

somehow: I must have not taken note or maybe he didn't really do anything significant in my book. MB talked him big and likend him to Dramon Green with the same way he's used at Golden state, even said he had the potential to be in the league's defensive team of the year. If we stand any chance of beating the Australians, KZ must have a big game with Okogie as with every other person. His efforts shut the US down and even the Argentines. He barely played against Australians a possible deliberate tact by MB not play his hand against his first opponent. |

Two things from Chidinma's story, it appears she didn't know the number of times the victim was stabbed as alleged by Usifo's cousin. Also I keep wondering how she got the rope with which she bound him. Who goes on a date out with a rope? The touture, bounded hands gives credence to the fact that this involved more than one person. The contact list of all those who lodged in the apartment building within said period should be checked since no one from outside paid a visit. In the fullness of time, this case will unravel. |

crossfm: Ugwuanyi should have the balls to do the right thing.He should come out openly to stand with the existing arrangement on ground.
The main reason why the cunning Governor has not openly support the zoning arrangement is that,it will also effect his chances of becoming a senator. His local government is not qualified to produce the next senator, but he want to be a senator ,and Ekweremadu is watching and waiting for him to make that big mistake of contesting even when its against the zoning arrangement in his zone.
The above reason will give Ekweremadu the green light to justify his actions for contesting even though its not the turn of his zone to produce the next Governor.
Nigerian politicians are like chameleon, always changing the rules their colour for their own selfish interest. Let's wait and see how Ugwuanyi solve this problem, without being burnt. If senatorial position was zoned why has Ekweremadu remained in the senate since 2003? |

Politics › Re: Olusegun Osoba: How Fake News From Foreign Media Triggered 1967 Civil War by Barryseal: 4:18pm On May 30, 2021 |
LegendHero: Many things led to the civil war Chief Osoba, do you want to say you don’t know history or you’re just trying to be politically correct?
Often many people believed the killing of Saraduana and Balewa are what led to the North uprising against the Ibos in the North but this is half truth. The Unitary decree of Aguiyi Ironsi caused as much harm as the coup. Infact, it was what led to the initial killing of Ibos in the North, and gave the fertile ground for the counter-coup.
I will give timelines of events below, if anyone need proof of any of the point I raise I will provide it.
Besides the killings of other tribesleader by the majorly coupist of Jan 1966 which everyone knows, the below are some other side of the story.
Decree of 1966: --May 1966, Ironsi announced that the regions are dissolved and there will be unification of the Public Service. -- Note: The Ibos have the highest number of civil service candidates then and they are more itinerant than other group, which implies that decree will favor them. --That decree was popular in the East and the Northerners received it as a blow on them and an act of marginalization against them because they have low number of civil servant. Remember Saraduana video that was trendy then. --To crown the fears of the Northerers, General Ironsi announced the unification decree while the constitutional report group he set up under the chairmanship of Chief Rotimi Williams haven't concluded their report yet. So he acted on this own.
Riots due to the Decree: --May 28,1966, A massive demonstration of about 20,000 people held against Ironsi decree in Kano which was organized to present a petition by the military authorities through the Emir of Kano. Slogans used were "Pure Federalism or We Bust", "We denounce abuse of power", We Separate Clearly". Infact that was when the North preached secession. 7 people were reportedly killed that day
Kano, Kaduna, and mining centers of Jos and Bukuru again protested with violence with placards saying "Let there be seccession". Infact over 92 people were killed in that weekend demonstration. They burnt Southerners quarter, houses and over-turned cars. Ironsi replied to the protest by saying he will declare certain area military areas, replace civil court with military court, and death penalty to anyone causing destruction in the North. He also accused the Arab world of being behind the protesters coz they are friends to Saraduana.
In June 1966, The government declared Dusk to Dawn curfew and these riots and killing still continued with rumors in the North that the Ibos will counter-attack. I don't know if Chief Osoba is referring to this.
--Over 100 emirs and Chiefs in the North gave an ultimatum to the Ironsi government to reject the decree. The resolution was presented by the 65-year old Sultan of Sokoto then who is also the uncle of Saraduana where they demanded Nigeria should stay Federal, and old boundaries should remain as before.
--The progom continues with several Ibos being killed across the North. The North sensed domination of the Ibos because the constitutional study group haven't submitted their report yet but Ironsi still abolished the system. Then the sentiment is that Ironis is running a Ibo regime just like people are talking about Fulani regime now. Gombe, Katsina, Bauchi also joined in the attacks mainly against the Ibos.
Counter Coup: --July 1966, the mutineers arrested Ironsi and later killed him which set the ball rolling for more violent attacks here and there. Brigadier Ogundipe who is the Chief of Staff to Ironsi made a broadcast saying the military is still in control with but what happened in few days after showed that the mutineers want none of Ironsi regime and are all out for revenge. Cut story short, Gowon took power.
--Aug 1966, Gowon took power as a Northerner, first it is decisive, he is a Christian and he is from the minority so he is seen as a great asset not only in Uniting the North as a common force but also to appear to the South as being relatively acceptable. Then he ordered the release of Awolowo, Enahoro and other political prisoners which was a masterstroke, now you have the buy-in of some Awo symphatizers who are by far the vast majority of the Yorubas and some of the Edo areas.
All these contributed to other riots, killings, thousand Ibos killed in the North, Ibos retaliated in Port Hacourt killing 25 Hausas, plane evacuating Ibos, and eventually the civil war as the ending game. The unitary system was a pure military constitution,nothing ethnic about it. If it wasn't so, Gowon would have respected the Aburi accord and devolved power. After all, a strong center wouldn't favour his people going by your post. No General will weaken his power only to make subordinates more powerful. It's against military ethos,thats why Aburi was thrown out. |
