THe other day, abo.kis killed yorubas in Lagos, their youths were seen on video saying they don't want Nigeria anymore, now Southern kaduna is attacked and suddenly its time to negotiate Nigeria, yet, both kaduna and Lagos will converge to profess their love for Nigeria when they hear igbos bring their own complaints why are Nigerians full of hypocrites??

AkinPhysicist:
This is a more sensible explanation - You encapsulated it very well.

Thanks

AkinPhysicist:
not according to many Igbos who say "Igbos have no kings."

You misunderstood it. These Obis are copy copy influence from Benin. You can see the king in Benin royal cloth but the others retain igbo traditional caps. What igbos operate are autonomous communities with different igwes who are all equal and no paramount ruler of a whole city. Who is the king of Enugu, Owerri, Aba, etc?? Each of these cities have at least 3 igwes with none of them superior to the other. Kingship is highly decentralized

Long time no update

APCmyheart:
NIgerians can believe any news i swear hahaha Bomb blast and no news of it from our TV station and media houses.

This is Punch, a national daily owned by APC chieftain from south west. so we have every reason to belive

Lol, see desperation, pettiness and and show of inferiority. The sultan visited Enugu and stayed for days and discussion went on without anybody mentioning Niger delta millitants or whatever they are agitating for, but see how a whole governor ran to sokoto to do "i no follow ooo" as if the sultan owns Nigeria, must these people always look for cheap sense of importance??

Corrinthians:
I bet you are a boko haram member to know which is which.

Pained souls.

The defeat of the deamons really dealt you lot a very painful blow you just cant stomach it. Initially, it was that is is embarassing to present the flag to the president, that they should have burnt it. Now it is "the flag isnt boko haram's".

If you people cant stomach the fact your hero was defeated at the general elections, and your other hero, shekau, has been set on the run while his forces have been decimated, take up som ugwu leaves and go fight in sambisa. That is where things are going down right now.

Lol, Na today boko haram defeat start?? Check the latest news, pay attention to the part in bold

Here is an Afonja going to jail for Biafra

In 1967, during the early days of the Biafran war, Professor Wole Soyinka was accused of being a Biafran spy. The photo was taken the day he was arrested by the Nigerian police. He was put in solitary confinment for 2 years.

If anybody know dat king, they should send message to me. I wil make sure dat magistrate come and put his mouth rob ground in front of dat king. He wil seat in dat court and sometn wil be beatn him without seeing d thing. Nonsense!

Na wa oo. Your people should stop breeding monsters in the name Kings and political godfathers. Embrace egalitarianism.

An Osun State Chief Magistrate Court on Friday, December 30, 2016 ordered the State Commissioner of Police, Mr Fimihan Adeoye to immediately arrest the Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi, a first class traditional ruler in the state.



Senior Magistrate Olusola Aluko on Friday, December 20, 2016 had issued a bench warrant for Oluwo’s arrest and also last Wednesday ordered the monarch to appear in court on Friday December, 30, 2016 but the traditional ruler was conspicuously absent when the case came up for hearing.

According to the Magistrate, the case brought before him against the Oluwo of Iwo was a criminal case and by the bench warrant issued by him, “the accused person supposed to have been arrested and kept in prison custody”.

Although, the defendant’s counsel, Barrister Olayide Yekeen wrote the court on why himself would not be present for the proceeding, counsel to the applicant, Barrister Soji Oyetayo explained that no reason was given for the absenteeism of his client.

While highlighting the alleged criminal matters brought against Oba Akanbi, Magistrate Aluko noted that the applicant, the Oluwo of Iwo-Oke, Oba Kadiri Adeoye did not file a chieftaincy case before him.

“I will like to say that the matter before me was filed based on sections 35, 37 and 38 of the criminal procedures of Osun State.

“In a criminal case such as this, a defendant must appear in court. This court is not trying a chieftaincy matter. It is the law that once an order is made, to prevent anarchy such order must be obeyed.

“It is to be noted that an order was first made by my brother, Magistrate Omisade of Iwo jurisdiction before the case was transferred here by fiat and I had warned him (Oba Akanbi) three times to appear before this court”, he said.

Reading parts of the statement credited to Oba Akanbi, the Magistrate stated, “The first respondent is in contempt of the court. He should also come and explain the statements credited to him on television and newspapers against this court.

“I have a duty to protect the judiciary which the respondent wanted to embarrass and humiliate”.

Magistrate Aluko chided the state Commissioner of Police for failing to perform his duty by not effecting the bench warrant on Oba Akanbi which he personally signed and which was handed over to an officer of the state police command.

He said, “I am baffled that the Commissioner of Police has not done his duty. I am also surprised by his claim that he was unaware of the bench warrant. That must be a joke of the century. I therefore order him to immediately arrest the respondent.

“I am not joking with my order. He should be arrested and brought to this court on Friday, January 6, 2017. The sanctity of the judiciary must be protected”, Magistrate Aluko added. ‎

Mischief Makers

The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi, recently cleared the air on why he refused to appear in court to face litigation instituted against him by Oluwo-Oke of Iwo-Oke, Oba Kadiri Adeoye, on the allegation that he was sponsoring thugs and involved in internet fraud.

At a meeting with one of the leaders of Quadiriyah Islamic Movement of Yoruba land, Mr Muhammed Imran-Adio, at Imoru Compound, Iwo, Osun State, Oba Akanbi described the allegation as a mere threat to intimate the crown.

“The lawsuit was the handiwork of some mischief makers who want to distract my compassionate leadership style and an attempt to get me docked so as to discredit the crown.

“How can I appear in court on defamatory allegations? There are two respondents in the case, Oluwo and State Commissioner of Police.

“The CP has been represented in court several times and I (Oluwo) have also been represented by three royal fathers and qualified layers, so why should the magistrate run after the crown leaving the man in khaki? This is an indication that something is wrong somewhere.

“If they can represent CP, why must they request the physical appearance of a first class ruler? You now insisted on docking Oluwo, maybe you meant another Oluwo not Adewale Abdulrasheed,” he said.

ddippset:
Wike is governor of the year and dilector is man of the year. sun newspaper, iam watching you.

Owner of sun newspaper is now Buhari's friend, so chill

AntiWailer:
The write up is muddled up and as blur as the struggle.

Summary, a yoruba terrorist was caught and the dullard paid a foreign press (AFP) to say he is IPOB without cross checking facts, thereby committing a funny blunder of saying that ABIODUN AMOS is Igbo from ONDO state.

IPOB always 1000 steps ahead of the dullard

oh how i love to see afonjas wail

if Boko wounded our soldiers, many probably killed, then who said the war was over

kettykin:
So south east and south south are now one zone.
Anyway those who don't like what the Minister of works in the person of Fashola is doing should go and form their country

That is the question we should be asking you, how come two zones got less than Fashola's zone

Cekpo34:
I do! Am a Cross Riverian. If you read through lines, you'll see that I have nothing to complain or wail about

who gives a fvck about this??

Enugu is not mile 12, killing at night in remote village is different from killing on the streets in the city. we are not afonjas

TonyeBarcanista:
Lol
Funny guys

On a serious note,the op is right,Arogbo is Ijaw land and the suspect though bearing a Yoruba name is not Yoruba but he doesn't possess the spirit of the Ijaw nation.

Ijaw abhors violence.

Lol, the greatest joke of the century

Lol, Tonyebacanista is urgently needed here for sure

who FG epp?? give the land to our industrialists.

i don't know why afonjas claim to own Buhari more than his kinsmen. are they still hoping on inflated al majiri vote to retain buhari when hunger has reseted the brains of abo.kis?? and buhari is likely to contest with another northerner??

Yorubas should stop this attitude of always trying to live in denial, nobody holy pass

Statsocial:
Rotimi is a Yoruba name,but it doesn't really mean someone like Rotimi Amaechi is Yoruba. We understand that we have cultural and nomenclature influences down the south south(e.g Itshekiri, Olokun) and we accept that. If you insist he is a Yoruba man then fine.

ROtimi Ameachi's Hometown is not geographically contiguous with yorubaland, that is the difference

Lol, they just changed the set of looters to a new one

This is better than the cannivals held in Owerri and Calabar. We should stop copy copy and be original

givan:
Op, abeg clarify me more on this.
Is MASSOB dying of hunger or....?

No, read the news in full. MASSOB said that Nigerians are dying of hunger. PUNCH, an Afonja newspaper twisted it

https://www.nairaland.com/3541861/recession-nigerians-dying-poverty-massob
In a statement issued in Calabar on Tuesday by its Public Relations Officer, Mr. Okon Eyo Effiom, MASSOB said there were indications that the Nigerian state could no longer take care of its citizens.

All classification of ethnic groups in Nigerian by reasonable anthropologists have failed to classify Ikwerre as an ethnic group. This group are the most confused set of people i have ever met. God creates ethnic groups, not Federal government. Do they think people have the power to decide their ethnic group by themselves?? Its just like if come out and say "I am not a black man" and expect to be accepted like that without showing convincing evidence on the difference between me and blacks, who will take such a person seriously
