OPCNAIRALAND:
Every state in Yorubaland is now APC, the amala and ewedu party. One more to go....we are coming to win Ekiti and unite Yorubaland under one banner!

May Oduduwa continue to bless this land and give us the vision to dribble and bend our enemies to support our political advantage.

Up Yorubaland! Vote next year to bring Ekiti under one house!

Lol, consolation. you all boasted how Tinubu will use AD to shame Buhari. Which of your amala and ewedu brothers were there during the campaign??

Tinubu finally dymistified. SW now very vulnerable

all this nonsense to hide the shame of Tinubu's defeat.

NgeneUkwenu:
All my IPOb Vandals How market?

Ipobs are currently asking AFONJAS. how market?? what is ipob business with the decimation of Tinubu in his backyard by his fulani masters. I thought they said AD will win

omofunaab:
This thread has no meaning.

bro, i am beginning to like you

they support the FGs excesses in other places but are shouting up and down when its their turn

indigenous is the keyword. SW industries lack local content, owned by oyibos

kropotkin2:
when they picked up policemen and threw them over the Niger bridge to their deaths. Thee army did the right thing in such instance

These shootings happened long before the Niger bridge incidence, nigerian authorities does not even have any proof of the niger bridge accusation

suddenly they recognize the need to carry everybody along

tdayof:
Hope amnesty saw this too?

Peaceful protesters attacking security officials? In the US try attacking an officer and you'll get some loads in your head.



Amnesty intl should spare me that shiit!

What have you done about us military harassing civilians in Iraq? Libya then? Etc??


Below is what a peaceful protest looks like. I'm not a tribalist. I'm just telling amnesty to keep shut her damn mouth.

IPOB have pictures, videos and interview. you are showing pic of burning tires and not dead policemen. The punishment for burning of tires is not point blank execution. if you claim policemen were killed prove it to them

ificatchmodeh:
A united south would have checkmate the domineering north.

We blew the opportunity in 2015..

Nigeria politics has gone back to reset mode.
.
West back to regional politics..and party..
East will subtly allied with the centre , while agitating for biafra.
South has always been with the center.

This is the part they fail to understand. they think the agitation is over. as if it started because of buhari

InyinyaAgbaOku:
If you knew how to read, you would have typed better.
Now, tell us who is falling over himself for atiku in this thread?

atiku that has been running to the east like his life depend on it. shouting "restructuring" up and down like a clown. we are talking how to cut our share of national cake from the dullar.d before the inevitable happen and the dude is flattering himself

QuotaSystem:
Calm down, that was an idiomatic expression, nobody called you a horse

and i did not mean horse literally. after reading everything i wrote you should have known i understood you well

QuotaSystem:
I don't know why this keeps reminding me of the way a new wife taunts the head wife because it's her turn to get bleeped.

If it's the romance you're about to get that's making you masturbate on Yorubas already, then don't knock yourself out too fast as you'll get plenty of it.

Of course, before the bleeping we go shopping in Dubai and other things and after everything you wont even see the underwear

QuotaSystem:
OP you have your answer from the horses mouth.

Oga go sit down. I am no horse, i just made my own opinion. He made his. I represent myself alone and do not speak on behalf of anybody. I advise you to do same and stop claiming to be mouthpiece of anybody. Many Northerners have rubbished Buhari on the media while other have shown full support so what is your point?? This is my first comment so stop copying only the part that suite you
The romance is taking another dimension lately. We will take whatever they offer but kick their bu.tts when necessary
so, we you see, we both agreed that we are not falling for your wooing. Just like a lady catching a mugu who will never see her underwears after spending

QuotaSystem:
I never saw any Yorubaman name himself 'Buhari' on this forum two years before the election, neither did I see any core anti-north SWner suck up his vomit to campaign for a northerner like your kinsmen are currently doing for our Atiku.

The above is the definition of shameless cocksucking that goes beyond any political harlotry you accuse the Yorubas of. There is absolutely no honor in shameless hypocrisy.

As stated, it's Arewa 2019.

stop consoling your willing slaves. How did you know who owns which moniker on a faceless forum. I don't give a damnnn about atiku and this thread is not about atiku. But the romance of the present administration with the east as they move to curtail the excess of the west

Osunization in progress

A draft budget framework for 2017 submitted to parliament by Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari is based on unrealistic assumptions about oil production and the currency exchange rate, lawmakers said on Wednesday.

Nigeria slid into recession in the second quarter for the first time in 25 years , largely because oil price fell. Crude oil sales account for 70 percent of government revenue.

The budget plans, which include spending a record 6.866 trillion naira ($22.57 billion) to pull Africa's biggest economy out of recession, assume oil production of 2.2 million barrels a day and an exchange rate of 290 naira to the U.S. dollar.

The framework must be approved by the Senate before the final budget for next year is submitted.

"There's no doubt that the assumptions are not realistic. Even in times of peace we cannot achieve 2.2 million barrels per day," said Bukola Saraki, president of the Senate, the upper house of parliament.

"Our responsibility is to work on it and do the right thing," he said, adding that the spending plans would be referred to Senate committees on finance, appropriation and national planning to be reworked.

It could be months before a final budget is passed into law. The 2016 budget became law in May after being delayed by several weeks due to wrangling between the government and the Senate.

Attacks on energy facilities in the Niger Delta cut crude production, which was 2.1 million barrels per day (bpd) at the start of 2016, by more than a third earlier this year.

But the oil minister earlier in November said production had returned to 2.1 million bpd following a ceasefire observed by many groups in the oil-producing region over the last few months.

The naira has fallen to 305 to the U.S. dollar since a peg holding it at 197 to the greenback was removed in June after 16 months. The currency has hit record lows against the dollar on the black market in the last few months.

Ahmed Lawal, a senator from the president's All Progressives Congress (APC) party, said basing spending plans on an exchange rate of 290 naira to the dollar was "not real" and had a "serious effect on budget implementation".

Figures released by the statistics office on Monday showed the recession had deepened with gross domestic product contracting by 2.24 percent year-on-year in the third quarter - worse than the 2.06 percent decline in the second quarter. (REUTERS).

dudebuck:
I checked the Facebook page of IPOB, the timeline dates back to 2013

Buhari drew sympathy to the group by his gra gra. They were seen as clowns before but now made heros

QuotaSystem:
[b]As if the SE has any other choice than to support a northerner in 2019 .

The shameless cretins that were calling Yorubas slaves and arse kissers just last year for going into alliance with the North, are suddenly the same ones falling over themselves to create "Abokki" monikers in solidarity with our son, Atiku Abubakar because they want their Peter Obi to get the 'mere commissioner' job

What these political neophytes don't realize is whether it's PMB or Atiku, as long as northern interests are protected (which either are bound to ensure), it really doesn't matter who emerges in 2019, especially as electing Atiku implies that northern interests will continue to be championed until 2027 instead of 2023 when the two tenures of the current President would have elapsed

I predicted in 2015 that the South East would be the chief campaigners for a northern presidency by 2018, but I had no idea it would be sooner, thanks to the hardwork of the likes of waternogetenemy .

Sai Arewa 2019. [/b]

Lol, i like you, you care about your Arewa, so if Afonjas are dumped you don't care. OK, FYI we have no problem with the north or any political alliance, but Buhari is a "No No" we warned nigerians, they called us names, now the result is out and we are vindicated. Yorubas on the other hand threw themselves at the north like har.lots and lost their value so soon, allowing the north to cheat the south so badly and now being cut to size using the east. We welcome the new romance, its more honorable than slavishly throwing yourself at someone

OPCNAIRALAND:
Another plus for Yorubaland!

These leaders have been preaching sermon to their followers to return home but here they are shamelessly calling all Igbos to go to Lagos for a unity gathering.

How will the followers take the return home message serious? How do you make Biafra happen when all the minimums needed to weave the structure on which to erect your new nation is squandered away in other people's land?

I agree with people that label Igbo as a clown race.

Yoruba land ko, wait till they put a senator in 2019. world igbo congress is held in US. Wake up the modern globalized world

payosehtor:
Except you take Ambode for granted. but remember TInubu who dealt with masob in 2002 (A football mach meant to intimidate his state) is still in charge o!

Tinubu who is currently hidding in CHicago?? Tinubu did not deal with massob more than Peter Obi and Okorocha. but they are still there

Very democratic. Let the people decide, not one man

The romance is taking another dimension lately. We will take whatever they offer but kick their bu.tts when necessary

IPOB emerged in 2012 and campaigns for an Independent Biafran state.

For those who associate IPOB with 2015 elections

Amnesty International: 150 Pro-Biafra Activists Killed in Nigeria
November 24, 20160204

Army denies report
Senator Iroegbu in Abuja and Ejiofor Alike in Lagos

A new investigative report by the Amnesty International has accused the Nigerian security forces, led by the military, of embarking on a chilling campaign of extrajudicial executions and violence resulting in the deaths of at least 150 peaceful pro-Biafra protesters in the south-east of the country.

The report, which was the result of the analysis of 87 videos, 122 photographs and 146 eye witness testimonies relating to demonstrations and other gatherings between August 2015 and August 2016, consistently showed that the military fired live ammunition with little or no warning to disperse crowds.



Amnesty also found evidence of mass extrajudicial executions by security forces, including at least 60 people shot dead in the space of two days in connection with events to mark Biafra Remembrance Day.

The Interim Director of Amnesty International Nigeria, Makmid Kamara, said the deadly repression of pro-Biafra activists was further stoking tensions in the South-east.

“This reckless and trigger-happy approach to crowd control has caused at least 150 deaths and we fear the actual total might be far higher. The Nigerian government’s decision to send in the military to respond to pro-Biafra events seems to be in large part to blame for this excessive bloodshed. The authorities must immediately launch an impartial investigation and bring the perpetrators to book,” Kamara said.

The report noted that since August 2015, there has been a series of protests, marches and gatherings by members and supporters of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), who have been seeking the creation of a Biafran state.
According to the report, tensions increased further following the arrest of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, who has remained in detention since October 14, 2015.

Amnesty International said on September 30, 2016, it shared the key findings of this report with the Federal Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Chief of Defence Staff, Chief of Army Staff, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Minister of Interior, Inspector General of Police and the Director-General of the State Security Services.

According to the organisation, responses were received from the Attorney General and Inspector General of Police but neither answered the questions raised in the report.

Giving the details of the massacre, Amnesty International stated that by far the largest number of pro-Biafra activists was killed on Biafra Remembrance Day on May 30, 2016 when an estimated 1,000 IPOB members and supporters gathered for a rally in Onitsha, Anambra State.

The report added that on the night before the rally, the security forces raided homes and a church where IPOB members were sleeping.

“On the remembrance day itself, the security forces shot people in several locations. Amnesty International has not been able to verify the exact number of extrajudicial executions, but estimates that at least 60 people were killed and 70 injured in these two days,” the report explained.

Amnesty International said it had also reviewed videos of a peaceful gathering of IPOB members and supporters at Aba National High School on February 9, 2016, stressing that the Nigerian military surrounded the group and then fired live ammunition at them without any prior warning.

Citing eyewitnesses and local human rights activists, the report stated that many of the protesters at Aba were rounded up and taken away by the military.
On 13 February, 13 corpses, including those of men known to have been taken by the military, were discovered in a pit near the Aba highway.

“It is chilling to see how these soldiers gunned down peaceful IPOB members. The video evidence shows that this was a military operation with intent to kill and injure,” Kamara said.
However, the Nigerian Army has denied the report describing it as a biased campaign of calumny.
The Director of Army Public Relations (DAPR), Col. Sani Usman, debunked the insinuation the Nigerian troops perpetrated the killing of defenceless agitators.

According to Usman, this is an outright attempt to tarnish the reputation of the security forces in general and the Nigerian Army in particular, for whatever inexplicable parochial reasons.
He said: “The attention of the Nigerian Army has been drawn to a planned release of a report by Amnesty International on an unfounded storyline of mass killings of MASSOB/IPOB protesters by the military between August 2015 and August 2016.

“For umpteenth times, the Nigerian Army has informed the public about the heinous intent of this non-governmental organisation which is never relenting in dabbling into our national security in manners that obliterate objectivity, fairness and simple logic.

“The evidence of MASSOB/IPOB violent secessionist agitations is widely known across the national and international domains. Their modus operandi has continued to relish violence that threatens national security. Indeed between August 2015 and August 2016, the groups’ violent protests have manifested unimaginable atrocities to unhinge the reign of peace, security and stability in several parts of the South East Nigeria,” he added.
Usman stated that a number of persons from the settler communities that hailed from other parts of the country were selected for attack, killed and burnt.

He said such reign of hate, terror and ethno-religious controversies that portend grave consequences for national security have been averted severally through the responsiveness of the Nigerian Army and members of the security agencies.
