The use of face masks will reveal to you the degree/concentration and intensity of your mouth odour. What you have been serving others you'll be served a hundred fold.

Tinubu is afraid of using it, he knows he might not survive the horrible smell oozing out from there.
Why are these Igbo guys afraid of Tinubu? These people are so bitter and and inferior to be mentioning and talking of Tinubu in the negative side?
Tinubu is a slayer of the Igbo's after Awolowo.
Tinubu defeated Igbo's in the Biafra civil war II &III.
1967, 2015 and 2019. Igbo's will forever be humbled by Tinubu, the Jagaban of Borgu.

This is trying times to my kano people!

We've really lost great men this year more than ever before!!

I plead on Nigerians to continue praying for my dear state kano!!

This isn't about Covid19 cos most of these death has test negative for covid19! I think there's something going on!!

This lockdown is also preventing sick people from going to the hospital for treatment!!

They're number of sick people in Kano who no longer have access to the hospital and I think kano state government should do something about that!

People are also calling radio stations complaining that their love ones with malaria, diabetes, typhoid don't have access to drugs!

Ganduje should act like a doctor that he is!!

PoliticsRuga Project : Ganduje, Kano Igbos Reject Call For Relocation Of Fulani From Sou by basty(op): 6:41am On May 01, 2020
With the heightened tension in the national body polity, due to some calls from some notable Northern political leaders that all Fulani herdsmen living in the Southern part of the country should relocate to the North, the Kano state governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje alongside Igbo leaders from Kano reject the idea, while describing it as divisive and retrogressive.

Ganduje kicks that, "Those who are calling on the Fulani to leave South, we don't share the same feeling with them. People have a choice, as far as Nigerian constitution is concerned, to live wherever they chose to. But they must respect laws and cultures of those they are living with."

For the Eze Ndigbo Kano, President General and Igbo Traditional Leader in Diaspora, Igwe Boniface Ibekwe challenges that, "Just look at what is happening now, some people are calling on Fulani to come back to the North. So if they come back what will happen to us here in the North?

He continued, "...Our people will tell us to go back to South. Is that what our forefathers wished to see us doing? We are therefore rejecting such call coming from some quarters. It does not mean well for the corporate existence of our dear country."

All the rejections by the governor and Ibekwe were pronounced during a Special Dinner organised by governor Ganduje in honour of Eze Ibekwe to rejoice with him, on his 10th Offalla anniversary, which took place at Africa House, Government House, Kano, Saturday night.

In attendance at the dinner were the representative of the former Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige, who was represented by Hon. Kene Nzekwe (FNIQS), His Highness Eze P.N. Wahiwe from Niger state, President General of Igbo in Diaspora Assembly, Chief Chi-Nwogu, Chief Ebenezer Chima and many other Ezes and Chiefs from all the 19 Northern states.

Governor argues that, there was no doubt that Nigeria is a heterogeneous society with different religions and nationalities which calls for mutual respect among different people, insisting that, "As we are all creatures of Allah, it is duty bound on all of us to always respect Allah's creatures. No two way about it."

He repeated it that, the issue of Fulani roaming about from one place to another should be stopped. Arguing that, "We must find a way of turning the table from being social and cultural engagement to become social and economic. Herders should drop the cultural attachment to their rearing activities and make their rearing become economically beneficial."

It was with that singular thinking that, he called on the federal government to put a halt to the ever increasing movement of herders from one state to another.

"It is because we want bring out economic benefit out of the whole exercise that we inaugurated a RUGA Settlement Committee for us to have it in Kano. And to most fundamentally, run away from the insecurity posture poses by the herders farmers clashes everywhere," he explained.

While observing that, the major problem of herders is education, "...because they are not settled in one place for them to get educated. And that is the fact," says Ganduje, he further argued that, "That is why we said this issue of migrating from one society to another should be avoided."

Adding that it has been part of his effort and that of his government, to find a way of educating Fulani herders, "Because we want them to come to a reality and understand the meaning of development. Without education you cannot be able to understand the real meaning of the concept of development. You cannot understand how it works," he explains.

Governor Ganduje reiterates his commitment towards making sure that RUGA project takes off in Kano, emphasising that, "It is through that, that we can able to educate our Fulani brothers and sisters. And I have been nurturing this idea long before now. That was why we sent Fulani youth, 75 of them, to Turkey to be trained on Artificial Insemination. They are back now. So we need to put them into good use for the society."

"I was born in RUGA (hamlet). I learned how to speak Hausa when I was in Primary One. I was educated while my parents believed and understood the dire need to educate their children and the children of others. If not because of that Allah's Blessing I wouldn't have this opportunity to stand before you," he argues jokingly.

On the accommodative nature of the state he explained that, though Kano is a commercial nerve centre of Northern Nigeria, but he still argues that, the state was not an Island of itself, "We reach this position because we receive and accommodate other people from other places. Every individual you see has his or her comparative advantage," he reminded.

While commending all the security agencies for their efforts in making Kano a safer place, he also thanked people for their cooperation with the security agents and their continued prayers all the time, "I am happy that people have come to realise that, security is the main prerequisite for any meaningful development to take off," Ganduje observes.

Explaining further that if there is no peace and stability nothing moves, noting that, "We work day and night with the security agencies while also banking on community policing. We use ICT-based technology to curb all menace of insecurity in the land. We don't have crisis of tribal or religious in our state. And we are striving hard to avoid them."

Eze Ibekwe calls his people to always be law abiding citizens, assuring them that, "We are very happy that we are safe in the hands of our governor Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje. Kano is the safest place in Nigeria," he appreciates.

While giving a vote of thanks the representative of the former Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Ngige, Hon. Nzekwe, he thanked governor Ganduje for accommodating all Nigerians peacefully in Kano irrespective of their tribal or religious background.

"I am highly elated to see that we have good leaders like you Your Excellency, people that are highly detribalised and highly patriotic. We need more of you Sir in this country. And I will take back your good leadership style for accurate explanation to our people at home. We thank you very much Sir," he appreciates.

yes. They are all gone. Most times when I google a topic and it links me to nairaland and I see comments I am forced to check the date and it’s usually between 2006 and 2012. You see how mature the comments are, Hardly trolls, members giving you proper advice and all.
But it’s so shit*y here now.even when I see sensitive topics( especially Health and relationship) of people I feel are genuinely looking for help, I just tell myself they should not have because the replies they will get here will just end up making them depressed more grin.
You are absolutely correct. APC and PDP thugs or E-warriors invaded Nairaland since 2012 when Jonathan was ruling Nigeria and wanted the second shot at the presidency and using ethnic/religious divide to win the election. That was when
Afonja/Ipig,flattino/Afonja Muslim and so forth came on Nairaland. The election was lost and won. Wailers/zombies came on board. Seun became super rich and lost the grip on Nairaland and left it in the hands of ethnic moderators from a particular region of Nigeria and those started allowing thrash and banning people of great opinions and those great minds left Nairaland. Nairaland later lost her prestige and flavours you were used to.
Nairaland has been hijacked and Seun can no longer control it, so sorry to say.
PoliticsRe: Nnamdi Kanu Goes Live On Facebook, Slams Kemi Olunloyo And Buhari by basty: 5:21am On Apr 30, 2020
Felixamos:
Nnamdi Kanu said the guy in Aso Rock is a cloned buhari and he gave his reasons/points which point did kemi give to backup her claims?.. Nnamdi kanu shouldn't have even replied her..

Nnamdi kanu said that the real buhari died abroad(can't remember the country) and when they brought his cloned to Nigeria, his thumb print could not open the door of the dead buhari's chambers because it had a fingerprint security and he went further to say, that was the main reason behind the aso rock renovation because they had to remove the security doors to install new ones..

The Nigerian govt came out and told us that the reason for the renovation was because rats chased buhari out of aso rock and they have to fumigate the place..

Now, amongst those two reasons, which of them would you believe to be the truth?

If you believe that rats can find their way into aso rock talk more of chasing the president out of his office, then you are more stupid than the Nigeria govt and all the politicians put together
..

And if you dont believe what the Nigeria govt told us then ask yourself why did they lie in the first place? What could they possibly be hiding?.. Useless cabals and their senseless followers on nairaland!!

Btw I'm not a Biafran but anyday anytime, Nnamdi Kanu makes more sense than the trashy Nigeria govt..

You sound naive, immature , innocent, callow, unsophisticated, sincere , unadulterated, above board, Frank, honest, candid , unspoiled , untainted , untarnished , undefiled , unblemished ,unsullied , uncorrupted , virtuous , decent , demure , vestal and pure as the driven snow.

I predict that your story is that of a first time lover. It's definitely not just a story of infatuation. You have nurtured him for months in your mind as a crush. I know you hold your pillow tight with a soothing cuddle every night and speak to it ,wishing it was him- the king of your heart. I'm an audience in the theatre of your day dreams especially the ones you said "For Better for worse" to the invisible and a prince in absentia .

I , sincerely , blame everything in this country but you. We only read about people who got married to their college sweethearts on Wikipedia and foreign non-fictions. I am not oblivious that such genuine admiration of the one you love is not uncommon with girls your age. I am only worried about the end.
