It is not an issue of bad people, Go to the USA, there are bad people, that why there are jails. So nigeria problem is not the problem of bad people or witch. or people that rob the govt. in every countries in the world. you find bad people.

You say tribalist, is posting true pictures now tribalism. why are you people so desperate.  If we go , you people would still be nigerian.  Tell me what you would loss.  Show me anywhere I have been tribalitic? I want to see it?

It is not an issue of loving the republic of benin. No look, go and ask the republic of Benin president, I have never collected $0 from him. He has never given me any money before.

I am a nigerian, i have served nigeria before and I want the best for nigeria and his people. And there is no need to kill people just because you want unity by force. No man bring wealth into this world. Mike adenuga or femi otedola did not bring thier wealth and they would not take it to thier gravel. Dead people do not spend dollar.

I am nigerian, like i once said , I would have served under yar adua, i know some powerful people. it is not power I am after but what is best for our people. Look if yar Adua remove the yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa into benin republic, i would not run for office. I am not desperate to be president. I am not like your politician who care for this thing. I came with nothing to this world and I am going to leave it with nothing. money does not make a different to my life.

Look if i wanted contract, look most likely yar adua would have given me by now. it is not about contract. It is about doing what is right before God. Our people lifes matter more than that people money, it matter more than orji kalu money, it matters more than adenuga or otedola or tinubu money or what newspapers have to gain.

15,000,000 lifes is at risk, we should not be even talking about this, we should be jumping at this option fast, it is the only solution.

I have never collected any money from anyone , not from benin republic or anybody, if anyone says I have collected money or contract or send anyone to collect money or contract, they should please put the name online. If anyone says I have stolen his money before, please let them put his name online.

RIDICULE  you make ma laugh? do you see this body of mohammed. IF HE WAS A COWARD LIKE WE YORUBAS, EDO, DELTA AND BAYELSA WHO ARE TRYING TO JOIN Benin republic. . Then tell your people any of them, who want to prevent the north from having 70% of the oil to go to the newspaper he does not want this and see, if   they would not put bullet hole inf his body. List their name online , those who would prevent the north, is it Orji kalu or uwazubike or who? name the person?

Those lovely bullet holes would not be in his body. Look I  love nigeria more than you, that why i am doing this. I care for the value of the lifes of the people more than you.  Or do you think yar adua created the problem?  no, it was there before him and would remain there , when he goes.


Tribalism is an issue in Nigeria. And people would get killed if i do not do what I am doing now. Someone as  to be a man and step up. Someone as to protect our people, sorry it as to be me, there is nothing anyone can do about it. I did not pick myself God did. Go blame God. God knows what he is doing, he did not pick greed people who stole from the people. If not I would collect bribe and let our people get killed over nothing. Look the lifes of our people come first than any man investment. You igbo are so desperate to keep Nigeria as one. because of one shop in abuja. Goodluck. Your life would still be the same, when we leave you.

Look we have to think of what is best for our people. Do you know what it means for an old man obasanjo to lie about the census figure to prevent a civil war. look go and watch the video, when obasanjo presented the census figure he blow several times over and over. Go ask him why, because he knows he was telling a lie. And more than 80% of the national assembly refuse to show.

So how long do we continue to lie. we have picture, sorry the lies are over. we face the truth.

Now what are our solution. we have only one solution, we yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa join the republic of benin , the other alternative is to starve you igbo and make a country like swaziland  inside nigeria.?

So the best option is to remove the yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa into benin republic. If you do not like it sorry there is nothing you can do about it. The north most have 70% of the oil and 90% of the land for there to be peace.


The word of God says Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. That what we are.

Kosovo, the only way we who declear like kosovo, is if the internal community put pen and paper.

Amaka, look at that pictures, that is what is going to happen to every igbo who prevent the north from having 70% of the oil and 90% of the land. So go tell your people to prevent them. Since you people strong and can fight. we coward they go.

bullet go scatter their body. So you think we are coward for wanting to join the republic. Yes , we are. UMARU YAR ADUA the road is clear. Can the north claim 70% of the oil and 90% of the land now. amaka says they love Nigeria. but the yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa are coward, who want to join the republic of Benin.

https://undhimmi.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/yusuf_dead.jpg

Amaka, if you would die for nigeria, you can go ahead, but i tell you, yoruba, edo. delta and bayelsa state are not ready to die for nigeria. You can call us coward. Yes we are. that why we are running to benin republic to prevent civil war. And you can go and show them your fist and power. una get power.  Do you see this picture, he was alive before and now  is gone.

Continue to love nigeria. But we coward yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa are ready to Join the republic of Benin. As  you strong and brave igbo online are ready to be nigerian.  Igbo people are brave, we are coward. Mohammed yusuff too was brave. na bullet scatter him body.


We do not want any yoruba, edo, delta and bayelsa state to be dead like mohammed.

We yoruba, edo. delta and bayelsa state people are ready to join the republic of Benin. So that the north would have 70% of the oil and 90% of the land. Amaka you see map. Coward we bi. Brave amaka, who love nigeria. We coward are going to join the republic of Benin , so that the north can have 70% of the oil. we dont care.

I need an answer, i am going thru it, and kalabar looks very very different from ijaw but there are similar word. but most look very different. why.

do you know that if they move Nigeria border back by 15 km around oyo state. The president of benin republic would be a Nigerian.

And 15 km is lekki lagos to national theatre Iganmu in lagos. so if they move the border by 15 km, he would have been born a nigerian.


15 km Aso Rock presidential palace to about new abuja stadium in abuja. Aso rock to airport is 31km.

15 km is from the white house in Dc to Andrews Air Force Base
15 km is White house to college park in maryland.
15 km is National park to National Center for Biotechnology Information

15 km in new york from the bronx to the governor Island in new york

15 km in toronto from don mill to etobicoke



This is the closest Yoruba town in Oyo state to the president of Benin republic place of birth and home town, you can walk from his town to this town in one day and return back that same day. People walk from lekki to Iddo in lagos during strike and even long. So what make him less nigerian than you.

He is closer to us than you amaka, do you get my point. He is 15 km to us, you are 350 km, what relationship, do we have with you 350 km? or with someone from maiduguri who is 1145 km away. who is closer, 15 km, 350 km or 1145 km?


Calabar is 601 km

Yola is 961 km

Sokoto is 742

Kano is 784 km

Damaturu is 1085

Abuja is 523 km


The president of benin republic is 15km away. and you say we have relationship with you. which one . tell me. what relation do we have with you people i really want to know.??








And 15 km is lekki lagos to national theatre Iganmu in lagos. so if they move the border by 15 km, he would have been born a nigerian.


15 km Aso Rock presidential palace to about new abuja stadium in abuja.

15 km is from Enugu - Nike lake hotel to Large Brewery at 9th Mile, Enugu

15 km is from port Harcourt Harbour to eleme junction in port harcourt
15 km is from Kano airport to the kano zoo
15 km is from Kaduna airport to Kudenda Power Station

15 km is from Maiduguri airport to University of maiduguri Teaching Hospital

15 km is from m Shell Contractor Gate Roundabout - Warri to warri airport
15 km is from benin city airport to University of benin
if you move the nigeria border in by 15 km in katsina.

President Yar adua and Mohammed Buhari would be citizen of Niger Republic.

do you know that if they move Nigeria border back by 15 km around oyo state. The president of benin republic would be a Nigerian.

And 15 km is lekki lagos to national theatre Iganmu in lagos. so if they move the border by 15 km, he would have been born a nigerian.


Here is my point .

You see the word of God says, when you see the cloud, you know it is going to rain.
The word of God says God talk to his people precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little.

Why do you think God did this at this time?? He pick two men, who God want to use as example

two men who were born at close border to the country. Who could understand what it means if the border line was moved back by 15 km?

I said people should pray that Yar adua should let his people go, so that they can serve him. His sickness became worst.

Now explain to me, why would God allow two men who if they move the nigeria border by 15 km , they would not be nigerian to be president at this time

Listen to the voice of God. 15,000,000 lifes is at risks

Amaka, why do you act stupid before the word. Do you know the meaning of bigot.   It means a bigot is a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own view.

Satellite images show ethnic cleanout in Iraq

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Satellite images taken at night show heavily Sunni Arab neighborhoods of Baghdad began emptying before a U.S. troop surge in 2007, graphic evidence of ethnic cleansing that preceded a drop in violence, according to a report published on Friday.

The images support the view of international refugee organizations and Iraq experts that a major population shift was a key factor in the decline in sectarian violence, particularly in the Iraqi capital, the epicenter of the bloodletting in which hundreds of thousands were killed.

Minority Sunni Arabs were driven out of many neighborhoods by Shi'ite militants enraged by the bombing of the Samarra mosque in February 2006. The bombing, blamed on the Sunni militant group al Qaeda, sparked a wave of sectarian violence.

"By the launch of the surge, many of the targets of conflict had either been killed or fled the country, and they turned off the lights when they left," geography professor John Agnew of the University of California Los Angeles, who led the study, said in a statement.

"Essentially, our interpretation is that violence has declined in Baghdad because of intercommunal violence that reached a climax as the surge was beginning," said Agnew, who studies ethnic conflict.

Some 2 million Iraqis are displaced within Iraq, while 2 million more have sought refuge in neighboring Syria and Jordan. Previously religiously mixed neighborhoods of Baghdad became homogenized Sunni or Shi'ite Muslim enclaves.

The study, published in the journal Environment and Planning A, provides more evidence of ethnic conflict in Iraq, which peaked just before U.S. President George W. Bush ordered the deployment of about 30,000 extra U.S. troops.

The extent to which the troop build-up helped halt Iraq's slide into sectarian civil war has been debated, particularly in the United States, with supporters of the surge saying it was the main contributing factor, and others arguing it was simply one of a number of factors.

"Our findings suggest that the surge has had no observable effect, except insofar as it has helped to provide a seal of approval for a process of ethno-sectarian neighborhood homogenization that is now largely achieved," Agnew's team wrote in their report.

Agnew's team used publicly available infrared night imagery from a weather satellite operated by the U.S. Air Force.

"The overall night light signature of Baghdad since the U.S. invasion appears to have increased between 2003 and 2006 and then declined dramatically from 20 March 2006 through 16 December 2007," their report said.

They said the night lights of Shi'ite-dominated Sadr City remained constant, as did lights in the Green Zone government and diplomatic compound in central Baghdad. Lights increased in the eastern New Baghdad district, another Shi'ite enclave.

Satellite studies have also been used to help document forced relocations in Myanmar and ethnic cleansing in Uganda.

I run this information on the internet, I can find a story. coming from thisday newspaper.hmmmmm

Amaka, citizeny your problem is, you are an ethnics tribe bigot. You are the worst of the kind tribalist I have even come across.  You are not eve ashame to push tribalist idea to the public. Shame on you Amaka.

Here is my point .

You see the word of God says, when you see the cloud, you know it is going to rain.
The word of God says God talk to his people precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little.

Listen to the voice of God. 15,000,000 lifes is at risks

if you move the nigeria border in by 15 km in katsina.

President Yar adua and Mohammed Buhari would be citizen of Niger Republic.

do you know that if they move Nigeria border back by 15 km around oyo state. The president of benin republic would be a Nigerian.

And 15 km is lekki lagos to national theatre Iganmu in lagos. so if they move the border by 15 km, he would have been born a nigerian.

This is the closest Yoruba town in Oyo state to the president of Benin republic place of birth and home town, you can walk from his town to this town in one day and return back that same day. People walk from lekki to Iddo in lagos during strike and even long.  So what make him less nigerian than you.

He is closer to us than you amaka, do you get my point. He is 15 km to us, you are 350 km, what relationship, do we have with you 350 km? or with someone from maiduguri who is 1145 km away. who is closer, 15 km, 350 km or 1145 km?


Calabar is 601 km

Yola is  961 km

Sokoto is 742

Kano  is  784 km

Damaturu  is 1085

Abuja  is 523 km


The president of benin republic is 15km away. and you say we have relationship with you. which one . tell me.  what relation do we have with you people i really want to know.??

Amaka, there are more people that understand yoruba in the republic of benin than the in Nigeria if we remove 11 state from it. so what relationship do we have with you.?

98% of our population have NEVER cross the river niger before, so they have no business or dealing with you people. So what relationship do we have with you. None.

Amaka,  While if they move the cameroon border inside nigeria about the same distance. all of you people in calabar , mubi would be inside cameroon.

Amaka do you know that  if they move Nigeria border back by 15 km around oyo state. The president of benin republic would be a Nigerian.

And 15 km is  lekki lagos to national theatre Iganmu in lagos.  so if they move the border by 15 km, he would have been born a nigerian.

Amaka let me give you a clue to my mind set.  I am accountable to God and not man. And what ever anyman says about me is irrelevant. I shall give account before God what I do. And on this issue, when God ask me what did I do when I saw the satellite pictures of Nigeria. I could say, I warn them and some people abuse me over it.

So Amaka what every anyone says about is irrelevant. It is the way God see me, that matter. And in Gods eyes I am doing the right thing, even when it hurt some pride of some ethnics group in Nigeria. Call me name, God calls me good son.










it is not that I am tribalist, but it is an issue of national security and danger.
Rwanda had 9 million and 1,000,000 die. Nigeria have 15 times of more.

if a civil war happens


1,000,000 X 15 = 15,000,000 that would die.

And the nigeria army would have at least 20 ethnics, religion army group.

That why I am doing, trying to save 15,000,000 and avoid over flow in other africa

countries.


let look at Jigawa state.

You would see from satellite pictures

picture 1. that town where the arrow is the largest afer rom 7 others hadeija is the

largest.

now if i zoom in ( get closer) pictures, verify that it is the same town. We pick the

largest town in the picture.

Picture 3 I measure the width 0.37
picture 4 I measure the length 0.36

Area length X width = 0.37 X 0.36 = 0.1332


Now
picture 5 and 6 is Akure length= width = 14.12 X 7.44 = 105.0528


If you find out how many of that town in jigawa state in akure.

105.0528 divide 0.1332 = 788.685

So that largest town in jigawa state , you need 788.685 of that town to make one Akure.you

do not have that in the satellite picture.

From the satellite picture, Jigawa does not have 788 towns


Now let look at Katsina state.


Picture 7,8,9,10 show you how katsina looks like and daura . and we pick the biggest town.

not the average.

we zoom in picture 8 and find the length and width in picture 9. which are 0.34 and 0.40

find area = 0.34 X 0.40 = 0.136

if we now compare to akure

105.0528 divided 0.136 = 772.447 times

772.447 is the number of times that largest city in katsina would make up one akure.


From the satellite picture, katsina does not have 600 towns




Now let look at Kano state.


Picture 11,12,13 show you how kano looks like and dambarta . and we pick the biggest town.

not the average.

we zoom in picture 8 and find the length and width in picture 9. which are 0.48 and 0.46

find area = 0.48 X 0.46 = 0.2208

if we now compare to akure

105.0528 divided 0.2208 = 475.782 times

475.782 is the number of times that largest city in kano would make up one akure.

So you see the yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa state joining benin republic is so important, it allow them to know thier root. More than 10 million of them have yoruba root. And they want to know so much about it. Having a country apart from the USA where they can carry another passport is important to them.


Even if they do not leave the USA, they want to know where they are from and visit the place and people in thier life time. some may return.

This is where micheal lived.

Fashola should meet them and they show him thier business deal and provide support, like land and others. It is important for fashola to meet them. The jackson have connection , lagos needs.

who is tribalist, I am saving your black behind from civil war. When they remove yoruba, edo, delta and bayelsa state into benin republic I WOULD STOP. if not I would expose the census fraud. And the north is a minority. So let them take the 70% oil and allow the yorubas, edo, delta and bayelsa to join benin republic.

Slave Route project reunites Jacksons with their Badagry root
By Anote Ajeluorou

ACTIVITIES will commence tomorrow, Saturday, August 22, 2009 for the celebration of the 10th anniversary of the 'International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition' in the ancient slave port of Badagry. This year's celebration will assume a distinct dimension as the famous Jackson's family has identified the ancient town, famous for slave trade in the 18th century as their place of ancestral origin.

To this end also, an oracular pronouncement has identified Alaga, a sub-tribe from Egun in Badagry as the home of the Jackson's from the Ajanemusan family (shortened 'Ajanesan'). This was revealed in a world press conference, which the organising committee for the Badagry Folk Festival addressed on Tuesday at the Badagry Local Government Council Secretariat, Ajara, Badagry.

As a result, the late music superstar is now called Michael Jackson Ajanesan in Badagry. According to a traditional priest from the Egun community, the fame that Michael Ajanesan attained in the US had long been foretold by the deity to which the family belonged as Michael Ajanesan was a deity himself. He claimed that it was only a god that could perform the feat that Jackson Ajanesan attained in life, and that he deserved to be given proper traditional rite of passage to join his ancestors peacefully.

And to properly accord their late superstar kinsman the burial rites befitting of a god, his yoko or spirit will be ritually invoked in the form of sand particles taken from his graveside and brought to a shrine or yoho for ritual internment. It is from this yoho that the necessary rites of passage will be performed to lay his spirit to rest among his ancestors from which the Ajanesans, taken into slavery these several years will again be reconnected to their kin.

Giving an account of how this bit of history was reconstructed to trace the Jacksons family back to Badagry, Special Adviser on Tourism at the Badagry Council, Hon. Prince Yomi Ajose gave account of his meeting with Marlon Jackson in Michigan, US, back in 1996. He stated that then it appeared as a haunch to the superstar's elder brother, who said he strongly felt that his ancestry was from Badagry. He was to match his belief with action when he made a dramatic visit to Badagry in 2008.

At that visit, Jackson undertook to visit the infamous slave trade route. On getting to the Point of No Return, Prince Ajose recalled, "Marlon became hysterical beyond words. And at the spot where slaves were buried alive, where no grass or tree has grown ever since, Marlon completely broke down". These manifestations became the first intimations that the Jacksons had their roots from Badagry. But beyond a possible DNA test to finally confirm this assertion, Prince Ajose also stated that with the consent of His Majesty De-Wheno Aholu Menu-Toyi, the Akran of Badagry, the oracle was consulted to resolve the Jacksons ancestral link.

It did; hence the Ajanemusan connection to Alaga at Egun.

The theme for this year's celebration is 'Family Reunion'. For the people of Badagry, this year's remembrance day is significant as it will reunite them with their long lost kinsmen, particularly Michael Jackson Ajanesan, whom Prince Ajose said had personally pledged to visit Badagry after the proposed London show, which did not materialise before he passed away in a heart-attack that is still shrouded in suspicious circumstances.

Now instead of receiving Michael Ajanesan in person to perhaps give further historical significance to the ancient sleepy town, it is only his yoko that will be received. But to Badagry people, such is life. Whether in death or alive, they are treating the event with so much emotional attachment, particularly the reunification with a part of the Diaspora.

The Badagry people are also thrilled that at last the Lagos State Government has finally recognised the historical and tourism significance of the town and was deploying resources to developing them. The long neglected 'Slave Route' will now receive attention and plans are underway towards developing it into an international resort and tourism centre. Work has started at the Marina Beach line. Lekki Beach Resort Limited, a sports and recreation developer has started work to transform it into a world class golf course.

The Jackson Ajanesan family is not left out either in this quest to turn international attention to this otherwise sleepy town with a lot of history behind it. With their Motherland Group Inc, USA, the Jackson Ajanesan family, according to Prince Ajose and Sunday Balogun, who represented the Badagry Local Council chairman, Hon. Husitode Moses Dosu, are partnering with the Lagos State Government to build the Badagry Historical Resort that will also include the Michael Ajanesan Museum, where memorabilia from the late superstar will be kept.

The Badagry Folk Festival will add colour to the commemorative event that is a collaborative work of Badagry Local Government, African Renaissance Foundation and Ijinla Tours. The Badagry Folk Festival will include activities such as Zangbeto festival in Ajido, Vothun festival in Ajara, Water Sports in Gbaji and Royal Carnival procession in Badagry will mark highlights of the celebration.

However, the traditional funeral rites for the late Michael Ajanesan will start on Saturday 22, 2009 starting from 6am. A candle light procession will commence at 9pm of the same day in memory of the slaves, who were forcibly taken away from their homelands to unknown destinations. The following day Sunday 23, a drama presentation Wailing from Badagry will be performed at the Badagry Town Hall from 3pm to end with a lecture on slave trade. The drama is the initiative of African Renaissance Foundation. The celebration will finally climax on Saturday 29, 2009 at the Badagry Grammar School playground with a cultural exhibition, musical performance and book presentation.

A statement from the council chairman read, "This year's celebration christened 'Family Reunuion' is the 10th celebration since 1999 of this programme and it is dedicated to the repose of the spirit and soul of one of Africa's legends Michael Joseph Jackson (Ajanesan), whose ancestors have their roots in Badagry and are spiritually attached to us. A mega tourist resort known as the Badagry Historical Resort will be constructed in Badagry by members of the Jackson's family and some prominent African Americans. We are once again joining countries of the world in celebrating the UNESCO declared International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition (every August 23) with a series of activities including the Badagry Folk Festival".

Prince Ajose lamented the long awaited development of the Slave Route in Badagry into a world heritage site. He stressed that while those in other parts of West African coastlines such as Ghana and Senegal had been developed and were contributing meaningfully to the economies of those countries, the one in Badagry, perhaps the most famous, was yet to enjoy similar status. The result being that the town is as impoverished as was possibly during the slave era. He maintained that the late realisation of the potentials of the Badagry Slave Route, and consequent action being taken to redress it were due to the nation's reliance on oil as the sole foreign exchange earner for the country. He expressed happiness at the late attention the ancient town was enjoying from the international arena, saying that though long overdue, it would finally put Badagry at her rightful historical

I think the government should help them out.

Singer to build Jackson 5 museum at historic slave port.
(February 17, 2009)


   *Michael Jackson's brother Marlon is caught up in a controversial plan that will transform the site of an historic slave port in Nigeria into a $3.4 billion slavery memorial that will double as a luxury resort and museum honoring the Jackson 5.

      The idea is that the Jackson name will help attract African-American tourists looking to trace their roots back to Nigeria. Organizers believe the plan will honor the history of the transatlantic slave trade and provide employment opportunities for Nigerians.

       The plan, however, has been criticized heavily by citizens. Critics dismiss it as a cynical money-making scheme, inappropriate for the subject of such seriousness as the transatlantic slave trade, reports the BBC.   

    "This plan is morally reprehensible, it's like dancing on the graves of dead people and telling them you're honouring them," C Don Adinuba, a writer and PR consultant, told the BBC.

       The developers say the Badagry Historical Resort will be marketed to African-Americans as a mixture of luxury tourist attractions and historical education. Visitors will be able to see the route their ancestors walked before boarding slave ships. They can then retire to their five-star hotel to drink cocktails by the pool.

      "This will be an adventurous ride giving you an historical overview of African music. From hologram images, concert footage, a state of the art recording facility, to robotic figures displaying the rhythmic beats from 300 years ago where music began leading up to the biggest African group in the world, The Jackson Five," says literature from the investment group behind the plan, called The Motherland Group (TMG).

       Visitors will also be able to pay their respects at the site of a mass grave for those who died before boarding ships across the Atlantic Ocean – then travel a few yards in a buggy to play a round of golf.  They can visit a replica slave ship to see the conditions Africans suffered, before visiting the world's only museum dedicated to the career of the Jackson 5.       

       The idea to house the Jackson 5 museum on the sacred site came to Marlon Jackson during a trip to Nigeria.     

        "The Jackson Family had been looking for a place to site their memorabilia collection for some time," says Gary Loster, a former mayor of Saginaw, Michigan, and chief executive of The Motherland Group. "We visited the site of the slave port in Badagry and Marlon turned to me and said: 'Let's put it here, this is right.' It's such an emotional place, and I think we all felt that it was the right place to have the Jackson family memorial."
