Melagros: COMRADES, anybody who is power drunk, I hate them: Wike Nathenyahu Buhari Tinubu Abure Etc Why the desperation for power? If you don taste am, allow another person too to taste am. That will make us an egalitarian society This is one of the reasons why I like Peter Obi, he always maintained that he is not desperate for leadership
The fact that you didn't add the fraud below who has changedaqv party thrice and even betrayed OJUKWU his benefactor in his quest for power is one of the several reasons why intelligent people don't take you OBI slaves serious!
The man was even begging the same Wike you accuse of being power drunk to rig Rivers state for him while wike should rig out LP governor out during governorship election
Tellmeastory: There were no 'TRIBES' before the British invaded Nigeria.
You were PROGRAMMED BY THE BRITISH TO SEE YOURSELVES AS ''TRIBES'' DIFFERENT FROM ONE ANOTHER.
Divide And Rule.
There was NOTHING like ''Igbo people'', ''Yoruba people'', ''Hausa people'' before the British got here.
People identified themselves by their LINEAGE, ie their HOMETOWN, not by the language they spoke, which was always subject to change.
Why? Because people migrated constantly. Searching for arable land, prosperous lands, conducive environments, water etc.
There was no 'lingua franca', so an Igbo speaking family migrating to Ijebu land meant they had to learn the Yoruba language of the Ijebu and speak it, learn the culture, observe their religion etc.
They would get there and ask them about the deities they honour, and they would be guided.
You could not take your religion and deities there. You would adopt theirs. That's how it worked.
After a decade or less, you've effectively become an indigene there. An Ijebu man, plus your kids!
Today we would call you a 'Yoruba man'!
But you're actually an ''Igbo man''!
THERE ARE LITERALLY MILLIONS OF YOU IN THIS POSITION RIGHT NOW.
IE your ancestors of just 150 to 300 years ago were immigrants from a totally different region to where you are now,.
GO AND DO A DNA TEST AND YOU WILL BE SHOCKED as a ''proud Yoruba man'' to learn that your great-great-grandad was an immigrant from Nnewi or Sokoto.
And YOU, Mr ''Proud Igbo man''.
GO AND DO A DNA TEST to find out where you really come from, ie your LINEAGE.
You will be shocked that you are actually from Oyo State or Kwara.
Or even from Sierra Leone or Congo!
Or holy of holies, descended from an 18th century Fulani herdsman!
Today an Igbo family can decide to migrate to Ibadan, and not bother learning to speak Yoruba for several generations, and they'll be fine, since we can all speak English.
But it was not like that in pre-colonial Nigeria.
You HAD to learn the language, and adopt the culture of your new abode, as a matter of survival.
So you true identity was your LINEAGE, not the language you were speaking at any point in time.
If LANGUAGE was what identified you in the past, that means you could be born Igbo, and by your teenage years be a Yoruba person, and by old age, an Hausa man, depending on your migratory path.
So of course it wasn't language that we identified ourselves by.
IT WAS THE EUROPEAN COLONIALISTS that created these language-based blocs, and falsely claimed that you were of the ''Igbo tribe''.
Of the ''Yoruba tribe''.
Of the ''Hausa tribe''.
It's all NONSENSE.
Why did they do it?
So that they could create large blocs of DIVISION among you, their subjects.
So that you could remain DISUNITED, in RIVALRY, and thus kept too busy fighting one another to challenge their authority.
If you are a TRIBALIST today, you are simply an ignorant colonial creation.
An ignoble, pitiful colonial caricature.
Go do a DNA geneology test, to find out where you're really from.
The 'native' language you speak today means a big fat ZERO.
You are making sense!
For example ,most Ogbomoso people are actually of Tapa Lineage!
Also,Onitsha people who are actually Ile-Ife origin!
malali: Who else has noticed the timing of all these Kano Emirate tussles?
Just as Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu marks one year in office, with very little progress to show and no relief for the common man from his numerous policies, suddenly, multiple dramas have emerged:
Sanusi versus Ado Bayero featuring Abba Soyinka versus Peter Obi featuring Reno NIGERIANS, DO NOT BE DISTRACTED!! IT'S ALL A PLOY.
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu should come out and tell us why Nigerians are still suffering despite all the policies he has implemented.
turmacs: That man is trying to prove stubborn, if not what did he go back to kano state to do again?
If to say Nigeria was a country that truely wanted to move forward, na to scrap all these monarchs and send them and their linage on international exile. All of them from oni of ife, oba of benin, olu of warri, obi of onitsha, oba of Lagos, Olu of Ibadan, emir of kano, emir of illorin. All of them are part the of the reason this country will remain like this. We suppose don pass this level. A country as diverse as Nigeria can not work with such things.
Anyways, what do i know? 🤷♀️
Guys you won't believe these were made by Artificial intelligence (AI)
I asked AI to show me what animals might look like if evolution never happened
Onitsha has more affinity to Benin than Lagos but Benin and others don't even care because Onitsha has no glory to want to claim.
But Lagos wey be say Benin just colonized at some point,not as if they founded the place is being dragged left and right!
And when people talk about Lagos being owned by Britain,Again lack of glory to want to claim from Enugu,port Harcourt and kaduna has made people not to bring the fact that the 3 cities are the only three cities incorporated and founded by Britain in Nigeria. Britain met Lagos,Kano,Onitsha,Aba and Ibadan as thriving cities!
well, welcome on board bro. And may God keep u till the end. the first rule in christianity is never let peoples opinion guide your decisions. When u got saved, u made Jesus ur Lord. He is the only One to tell you if anything is right or wrong. If u are unsure, ask Him to show you and He will, Cos in this forum, some people will say using spray is sinful.others will say theres nothing wrong and u'll end up getting more confused than when u started the thread. So my advice? Read ur Bible and let God thru His Word explain to you the things you dont understand. Goodluck!
Freebills12: All I have been hearing is Jagaban is the master planner but all I have seen is a selfish man. As a master planner the first he could have done is unite the south, and you can't do it without supporting an Igbo president. Pick your man from igbo extraction, rally support for him, the north will not find the ground to demand for president in 2023. The Yorubas play into their game, you can't have president from 1999-2007, vice president from 2014-2023 and then demand for president in 2023, of course the north will also find justification to contest.
HitlerWasRight: These people have no single functioning brain cells...
As in,they called him all sort of name in 2014 and they didn't want him as king
They did the same thing for AMBODE.
Their emotions revolve round TINUBU.
If Jesus christ appeared and endorse TINUBU and APC today,they will denounce Jesus christ.
And if Muhammad SAW appear and declare hatred for TINUBU They will claim Muhammad was the one that was actually crucified for their sin and not Jesus christ
olisaEze: The deed is already done, their historic hate & bigotry against their fellow countrymen exposed. After tearing down investments, they’re wondering why foreign investors are shy of them …..madness! . Big Pharma, relocated back to home countries. TotalEnergies $6 billion deepwater project, relocated to Angola. The Arabs that live & breathe investments want nothing to do with the first Muslim-Muslim govt of Nigeria! The Lagos that was neither designed nor built by the Yoruba, is slowly being unraveled by the Yoruba while the rest of the country looks on. Politics of hate has never brought prosperity to anyone. Just take a look at the middle-eastern nations that have been focused on antisemitism foreign policies, the Jews keep developing while they have remained on a steady course back to the dark ages!
Nackzy: lol, I just feel he's love by Nigerians and also he can deliver from how he talks and his views about reforms in the government, cutting government cost and all that, i am not saying he's perfect as long as he's human, rather than include atiku, tinubu, buhari in that list I'd rather put Peter obi there
You Mean,instead of including Atiku his mentor? 😆
OBI is a thief like his mentor ATIKU.
He has never distant himself from that rogue because he is a rogue like him
Morphinne: You putting Peter Obi among those big names was based on what metric actually? Please enlighten us, why and how did Obi stray into the mix? What qualities do they have that Obi also has? You listed two intellects but still had to smuggle Peter Obi into the discussion so your agenda can agend
😆
They have assume all their audience are like them who just play ostrich to the fact that Peter obi they packaged is a political prostitute,A bigot,a mentee of ATIKU and ABACHA,A failed former Governor of Anambra and a betrayal of OJUKWU and Dasuki loot distributor.
Exousiang01: I keep saying. Otti understands politics way more than Obi. Obi has alot to learn in politics.
Otti was in Rivers a few days ago to commision some projects. Otti a few days ago said he was gonna key into the Renewed hope agenda bu kicking off some projects.
Today he inviting SanWo eko.
If Otti can stay very far from Obi and his Obidient minions he will go far
Melagros: COMRADES, I agree with the monarch, what Fubara had just finished dealing with by the grace of God. Sanusi had passed through it sometime ago
When TANoids turned OBIDIENTS then accused him of fornication and adultery...when they were defaming him for accusing that 20billion dollars was missing under GEJ. When they didn't want him to become the emir ........Today,they are singing his praise.
Wike used to be their friend too.They nicknamed him wicked WIKE while Ameachi was an outcast...FFK,Reno omokiri etc
