Embittered soul............frustrated orangutan!

😆😆
See a glorified local pot calling a kettle black!
I made a simple and plausible comment that was explicit to even a dolt with an ounce of brain but being a pathetically unintelligent sycophant,U could not resist displaying ur empty head!
U are truly a rare mo.r.on!

Raf4:
Dafty, are you now saying history should be removed again because it doesn't favour you? Nattering nitwit!

My comments were not for glorified clowns like you but U just had to prove that ur inanity is very high and now U are still proving that U have nothing but sawdust inside that head!
Zombified olodo!

Raf4:
But you people are always asking for History to be reintroduced back to school curriculum in Nigeria

If U cannot show me where I made this highlighted statement on nairaland,then your brain needs to be properly examined to know the level of inanity inside!
If U have nothing to contribute,just skip....No be everything U go put mouth!

ebubeson:
What of Fathers?

Sorry to break this bad news to U....father's are all alone despite providing and protecting!

So get used to being alone because the priority of ur kids will deviate to the mother!

If U are a young father,start saving for urself so that u can have something to fall back on when you are old because even if ur kids will bring anything for their parents,the priority will always be the mother!

Hmm...as much as Zulum is in his own rights to make this demand,he should be aware that the fishermen and farmer have no alternative but to be subservient to bokoharam because successive administrations have failed to protect them!

Some individuals in security agencies are even informants to bokoharam...that's why the war against the terrorist hasn't been successful!
Who in those war torn terrorist states in the north will give the army any info when the bad elements in d army will give a feedback to Boko boys who will eventually slaughter that family!

Temptation147:
Na today you know say Nigerians dey like think backward

Just stating an opinion!
You can do urs without tagging Nigerians including Urself as being backward!

Blame apc government and docile Nigerians for not allowing their successive presidents to come out to debate and defend their policies!
While one of them never attended a single debate,the other was delegating individuals to talk about their policies!
From a single digit economy which apc had told Nigeria they can improve on in 2015 to a double digit in 2025!

Lol...instead of demanding transparency and accountability from an administration whose policies are failing and impoverishing Nigerians everyday,some dumb elements in their youthful stage have stupeedly preoccupied themselves with a coup that happened more than 50 years ago!
Some one even blamed the removal of the regional government structure on a military head of state but yet successive civilian presidents never deemed it fit to bring back such structure!
Will a reminder of the 1966 coup provide the basic necessities for the common man to strive in Nigeria?

megasoul:
After the Rwandan genocide, the Tutsi and Hutu communities chose not to dwell on past grievances but instead focused on healing, forgiveness, and rebuilding a stronger nation. When they recounted the horrors of the massacre, it was not to rekindle hatred or division—they had already learned that such actions lead to no good—but to educate the younger generation, ensuring they avoid the mistakes that led to the 1994 genocide.

Sadly, in Nigeria, we don’t seem to adopt the same mindset. We remain deeply divided along ethnic and religious lines, failing to recognize that we are all victims of the same political system and leadership. Every time I read comments on Nairaland, I find myself losing hope in the future of our country.

True!

fuke:
Your Ironsi layed the foundation for failure
by abolishing regional government.

In 1959, we already had Liberty stadium, television station,
cocoa house, etc

The high commission used as an embassy in London was
acquired by Awolowo be4 the FGN took it over.

Ironsi and Nwabueze set the west back.

So if ironsi removed regional government more than 50 years ago as a military head of state,how come no civilian president including Tinubu brought it back through the constitution?
Or is the civilian government not supposed to right the wrong of the military?
This distorted and outdated narrative is clearly illogical!

Any sensible person who has studied the recent trend of event in the political sphere would ask this simple questions.....

What's the importance and purpose of this 1966 narrative that happened more than 50 years ago?

How will it help or assist an average Nigerian to access 247 electricity,reduced transport cost,affordable housing,jobs,better security system,cheaper food, education and effective health system?

Make we try get sense oh

Amazing that some controversial elements are now speaking on a specific coup in 1966.
Surprisingly this same coup in 1966 wasn't discussed or talked about during OBJ regime or that of Yaradua or GEJ or even Buhari's 8 year tenure but how come it's now gaining momentum before and after the 2023 election!

Instead of discussing fundamental structures like state policing that will reduce insecurity in affected states or advocating for resource control so that states can generate wealth in their domain or other innovative programmes that will provide equitable prosperity for everyone,some paid propaganda machineries like Omokiri,then FFK and now mentally deranged kemi Olunloyo have now been setup to release distorted history about 1966!

My question is how does this help Nigeria to reduce insecurity,provide affordable transportation,improve on the accessibility and affordability of staple food and achieve 247 power supply in Nigeria?

So why does the president of Nigeria keep preaching about unity and oneness but are yet to condemn this recent crap by Reno,FFK and Kemi?

nairalanda1:
Actually, the above is not true.

1. Nzeogwu's father...James Nzeogwu ....worked for the precusor of NEPA. He never worked under or directly for the Sardauna as a gardener or in any capacity.

2.Nzeogwu was born in Kaduna, and that was why he was called Kaduna. He was not named by the Sardauna or any prominent Northerner (His brother Peter Nzeogwu in his biographical sketch of his older bro gives another Hausa name that he was given by the Hausa neighbours.)

3. He did not know nor was he on any name basis with the Sardauna.

Infact, read a good biography of Nzeogwu...one was written by his brother, the other by Obasanjo.

😆😆
It's well with Nigeria's history!

Be mindful a one sided story coming from a gullible and transactional individual who loves to distort history to favour his paymasters!

Interestingly,any time the eyes of some politicians from the north are about to be open about the hypocrisy of some certain individuals from the west,propaganda machinery will start reminding them of 1966 just so that the alliance will continue despite their disagreements!

It's the same machinery successfully used to keep everyone divided knowing it serves their purpose!

My question is why should the actions of a few individuals be used to exert revenge or blame on the region where they come from?

Why should an individual or citizens from the middle belt be blamed for the actions of yakubu gown or should the citizens from the South East be made responsible for the actions of agu ironsi?

Why blame the collective actions of few military men to assassinate individuals from a certain region on the citizens of the states where these individuals come from?

Do the Jews still blame today Germans for the wicked acts of Adolf Hitler?

All I know is that it's easy for politicians to keep average Nigerians apart....just use religion and ethnic bigotry!

nwirinedu:
I don't have problems with company's running the distribution and generation at some point they are necessary. My issue lies with the privileged position these companies have in crippling the regulatory mechanisms in the state that is supposed to ensure that these private companies carry out their obligations in a responsible manner and are held accountable.
Otherwise, what we will have is predatory anarchy where power companies will charge customers exorbitantly, refuse to address faults and complaints as we see in the present Disco arrangement.

A community's transformer is bad they complain to a disco that refuses to repair the transformer for over a year, the community buys a new transformer the Disco is saying that the community has to pay for the 1-year period they never had supply before it can install the transformer it never bought. See my point?

A corporate entity that is out to make profit and not add value is dangerous to society.

Okay I know what you talking about!
That's the regulatory agency just like NERC nationwide in the state that ensure and demand accountability and transparency from companies in the power sector!
This is where the state assembly members are supposed to provide proper oversight functions by setting up laws that will protect both the consumer and the electricity provider at various sectors of the electricity chain!

They are also mandated to constitute the state regulatory agency made up of reputable individuals from pressure groups who will ensure that electricity companies in the transmission sector are responsible for providing and maintaining equipments like transmission lines, feeder pillars,transformers etc

The earlier an independent federal,state and LGA policing structure is fully implemented as an act in the constitution,this avoidable incidents will continue unabated!

A centralized security system from Abuja cannot adequately secure communities in states!

In saner climes,the electorates will be pressuring their senators or HOR members into signing the decentralization of civil security!
In Nigeria,even in communities that have been ravaged by insecurity,the citizens esp most of youthful population will ask their representatives 'wetin u get for the boys?'
Or 'baba drop something for us oh'

When we are serious,we will personally start withdrawing NA members who have failed their constituents!

nwirinedu:
Is it really the state or a private company doing it? This clarification is necessary if a private company is doing it on behalf of the state nothing has changed. Customers will still be ripped off.

Good question!
While Buhari was the one that signed the amendment of the electricity act which now empowers states to generate,transmit and distribute electricity, Tinubu assent to the same act was to expand or authorize other players in the power sector to also come in and provide electricity!
So back to ur question.....it will likely be under the authority of the states but at some point in the future,they will have to outsource certain sections of the 'food chain' to private companies to ensure transparency and accountability!

Ijaya123:
You really need to quit this arrogant display of ignorance

Bytheway, are yiu saying you and your family are suffering because of Tinubu?

Are U also saying U cannot read or the crumbs falling from ur paymasters isn't enough to enroll U to a proper school for comprehension?
Now before sending another pic that U cannot read properly,ensure that u check the dates and also ask ur fellow trenchers to update U properly!
Can believe I'm even defending a monumental failure like Buhari and yet U r not even aware that he was the first that signed the amendment to the electricity bill😂😂

Dbestbrest:
I want to use this moment to thank and appreciate our President, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, for having the boldness to sign the executive bill that transferred the generation and distribution of electricity to states. Ekiti State quickly keyed in to it and has now started generating and distributing their own electricity with the completion of the first phase. The State Governor Oyebanji had gone ahead to purchase a lot of transformers to be distributed to streets, communities and other areas that are yet to be connected to the grid. The time for revolution has just began. Many young people that had abandoned their trades to be riding okada will soon go back to practice their trades with the improvement in electricity supplies. Real change is here. other governors that are yet to start must wake up from their slumber and think beyond the box. Before the end of this year we expect improvement in the states that had gotten license now

So it's now Tinubu not Buhari that signed the electricity bill into law😆😆
As much as I don't like Buhari,it would be unfair to not credit him for ensuring that such important bill was signed into law!
Now apc miscreants want to use what Buhari clearly did to credit Tinubu showing that there is absolutely nothing he has done so far apart from inflicting sufferings on Nigeria!

RandomFellow:
Can someone please explain what this means? How will it benefit the states or the people in those states? Should we be worried?

The post did not explain anything to us, they just assume everyone has an idea what this means and how it benefits them🙄🙄🙄

In a nutshell,those states are now incharge of the running of the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity or are no longer receiving electricity from the national grid as they can now provide electricity for their citizens!

essentialone1:
Yes

Good!
So I'm also free to inquire if you are from the Yoruba tribe...

In other words,I should also tag you a ritualist since an individual from your region who happens to be a gospel musician was recently caught with the head of his girlfriend!

Do you see why it's important to focus on the deed done by an individual instead of using their religion and tribe to make a needless,useless & illogical generalisation?

essentialone1:
Are you Igbo?

Do I have to be one to satisfy ur tribal curiosity?

This wicked acts from employers to employees is not new and has been normalized in nigeria!
I hope the police will make an example of these perpetrators to serve as a deterrent to other unruly employers!

essentialone1:
They are all Igbos. Hardhearted most are.

I just knew there would be atleast one irrational and benighted folk that will make this look like a tribal issue!
Are U trying to say this doesn't happen in every region in Nigeria or even world wide?
Why not condemn the deed and leave out tribal bigotry even for one day....

Thundafireseun:
Im not a Gaybriel and I will never be

But ur oga's daughter is a lezbian nah

Thundafireseun:
Atiku … I clearly stated that I have heard rumours….

On Obi’s son … YES I CAN PROVE IT …. ARREST ME

Below is Peter Obi’s only son kissing a man in a magazine

Meet Tinubu daughter who is a hardcore lez and a firm supporter of the LGBTQ group!
www.nairaland.com/7982334/habibat-tinubu-meet-bola-tinubus

Thundafireseun:
God bless President Tinubu….

We all have heard rumours that Atiku is a Gaybriel we are sure he will have looked the other way round regardless…..

Obi’s son is a well known respected Gaybriel so he will definitely turn a deaf ear to activities of Gaybriel’s in the NA

God bless President Tinubu for sanitizing the NA

U are also forgetting ur paymaster Tinubu also has a lezbian daughter!😆
So your WhatsApp admin didn't inform you that his daughter is also a hardcore lez who champions the LGBTQ group?😁😁
Make una rest...this line of argument is getting stale😂

Max24:
Post his response when it happens in other regions and compare. Like I said he either keeps mute or gives watered down response when it happens in his region. I have many proofs.

Reno specifically claimed that Obi never mentioned or condemned kidnappings in his region in 2024 which he did based on evidence making Reno omokiri a clear liar and his followers an ignorant and zombie like bunch!

I have provided evidences of him condemning the kidnappings in his region proving Reno lied....what else do you want to compare again?
I had earlier said that even if I provided evidence,your likes will still look for flimsy excuses just because you are determined to hate Obi since he makes ur paymasters jittery!

Max24:
Because the others condemn even when it happens in their regions but Obis condemnation is selective of water down when it happens in his zone. That signifies mischievous motive.

Did U fact check Reno to confirm his assertions or did U just believe his post because U don't like Obi?
Even if I provide U evidence U will still find a flimsy excuse to put on Obi because ur paymasters have singled him out for attack because they are jittery!
Check the tweets below.....

Obi1kenobi:
I'm aware Peter Obi has commented on several kidnappings in Anambra in particular, so I'm interested in seeing this "study" by Omokri that shows Peter Obi only or mostly condemns kidnappings in other regions and ignores the SE. He just asserts that "studies show" and didn't bother to show us the work. Does any of Omokri's supporters here know how he came about his "study"?

Reno doesn't need to because most of his followers who happen to be apc miscreants are clearly blind and benighted!
They act like zombies!
If Tinubu their paymaster says 'bow to Reno' omokiri,they will gladly do so!

Godwin4444:
it's like in Igbo land charity doesn't begin at home?

So it makes sense to u that obi can call out everything happening outside his region but to talk about what is happening in his region is a problem

U people keep proving d fact that an Igbo man's house will b burning n he will b chasing rat in another man's house

U are one of those ignorant disciples of Reno who cannot fact check him because you like the fact that he attacks the one U love to hate!
A simple research would have enlightened U but U chose to believe the tweets of the same wannabe who called ur paymaster a drug lord!

Max24:
If Obis condemnation does not stop the act, why then does Obi engage in it. Does it then mean he is doing it for political advantage?

This question is bereft of logic!
Obi is a citizen of Nigeria has every right just like everyone on X to condemn the kidnappings and insecurity happening every where in Nigeria!
But If I may ask....of all the opposition candidates that keep criticizing the government and condemning insecurity,why is that of Obi so sensitive to APC and their ignorant followers?
Sowore,Atiku and other opposition candidates have been condemning insecurity through their X handles....why is Obi's own very peculiar to APC goons?
