illicit:


A room self con


Rent is paid monthly

And the landlord will still collect times three or four of that as caution fee

Are you kidding me?!
A teaching job that pays 80k cfa which is roughly 80k naira monthly, yet house rent for a self contained room is 30k monthly which amounts to 360k annually worse still, the skyline I saw looks no different like that of Ibadan

That's crazy and not worth the trouble. Little wonder the country ranks so low on HDI.

Richdee1:
Just go to kano or Kaduna, I promise you the next day or even thst day you'll get it

Kano? Kaduna? That's extreme bro! The distance alone and security risks along Abuja/Kaduna/Kano highway is something else.

regizoch:
Go to Abakiliki, they usually have booklet.
They have lesser application compare to other states in SE

I have heard so much about Abakiliki, it seems I just have to go there.

SlyDev:
Lagos and oyo is the reason alaigbo state are not suffering in hunger. FG will take from SW and use it to feed ipob infested states but what do we get in return? Hate

Yet Imo State is supplying gas to Lagos and other places in SW, yet what we get in return is insult. Ingrates!

Everyday VAT this VAT that yet their region is filled with dilapidated buildings rusted roofs. If they can't use the VAT to make their cities modern and livable then it's useless

hammedkola:


Friday is a work free day in Dubai, what do you say about that?

Dubai/UAE is a Muslim nation, is Nigeria a Muslim nation too?

Kissiemu:

This is the second time that I will be telling you to stop making statements that make igbos sound stupid.

Who are you to tell me what statement to make and not to make?

Imagine this boy that writes "Igbos" as "igbos"? Is it illiteracy that makes you to do that or just ignorance?

Go to hell please and remain there!

Despite all the drugs these afonjas are pushing to Saudi Arabia, they still can't change their rusted roofs and dilapidated houses

CandyOps:


Not about abuse. It's more about speaking out against it. Easterners are known to be vocal about anything they don't like or can't condone. Ice is not a new drug in Lagos or West. Even North sef... It's just that Easterners dey always speak their mind w/o fear of anyone.

Don't mind these guys, I just dey pity their ignorance. The menace of drugs is worse in the SW and parts of North, especially NW than whatever is happening in the SE. The only difference is that Igbos have kindred spirit. While others chose to ignore the drug epidemic ravaging their region, Igbos on the hand are massively fighting it through awareness and other measures.

In Lagos, many youths would be seen shouting and dancing violently in the streets and everybody will be going on their business. Same thing in Kano where it has rendered so many youths useless.

mariovito:
on the opobo case, I read somewhere that there was an influx of Igbos into the area. the indigenes and chiefs didn't want the Igbos to learn their own language so they resorted to learning the Igbo language so as to keep their own language away from the Igbos. I don't how credible that account is.

Can't you see that such is fables? When you talk like this, it makes your education to appear like a waste of resources and time. A simple historical check on Google would have giving you a reliable insight about Opobo and Bonny people being Igbos.

We have Lived Side by Side wth Ijaws in Yorubaland for more than 200 years if not for Politics of Oil Oppression Ijaws are very Peaceful People and very good neighbors

It was Ijaws who taught the Ilajes to become the expert fishermen they are today

If you do not put your hands down Ijaws throat to drag out trouble like you are doing now by dragging Ijaws Opobo and Bonny with them because you want to steal their Oil rich Lands and Sea Coast

Ijaws would have been among the most Peaceful People in West Africa[/s]

Shameless two-faced dishonest people. This discussion has nothing to do with yoruba so why are we constituting nuisance here?

Imagine this empty coconut head, same Ijaws that are notorious for their landgrabbing, militancy and pirate activities are now peaceful people? Same Ijaws that fighting almost all the ethnic groups in the Niger Delta over other people's lands are now good neighbors according to this yoruba boy?

Continue showing the world how dishonest you people are.

Shame!!

Malawian:
Only one problem,Brass people were not Ijaw. Jo-men (Ijaw) appeared later from nowhere and lived almost exclusively on their boats. Using piracy and murder to fend for themselves. They can't possibly be the same Brass that made salt and Brass metal works on land. Ijaw is not indigenous to the Niger-Delta nor Nigeria as a whole. They were imported by the British to help them secure their Niger-Delta loot from Igbos.

Everything is actually pointing to the fact they actually migrated from Sierra Leone in the early 19th century, as servants of the British colonial masters. That's also why there is no record of ijaw anywhere before that period!

Ekealterego:

Nna stop spamming my mentions. Fight for your rights, respect your boundaries but don't kill innocent foreigners and dance on their grave..

Be different from your ancestors who were homeless water-dwelling pirates.

This is a record from the 1800s, are you trying to prove these observers right?

They've obviously always been like that, constituting nuisance in the region. SMH.

bemagnify:


Please Bayelsa takes 3 weeks now. Previously it was less than 5 hours.

Awww, anyways thanks for the clarification. I'm seriously in urgent need of renewing my international passport and I can't afford unnecessary delays.

Modified***I just checked your moniker now, bro it's been ages, where have you been? Are you still into freelancing?

LegendHero:


When you work from home, you are still working but the difference is that you won’t be at the office in person. You can be working on your laptop, taking calls, and coordinating meetings right from home. This is exactly what most developed countries are doing now due to the Covid issue. I’m pretty sure some Nigerians are even working from home currently as we speak.

Sit at home is a way where every activities is grounded. You won’t work from home when you sit at home (You are away from work completely on that day), and it doesn’t only affect the civil servants, it affects both school children going to school, madam selling pepper, people in the market, and etc.

Hmnn, 6 and half-a-dozen mean the same thing!

I'm in the East and I own businesses, when we sit at home doesn't mean we don't do business totally, we still run some businesses remotely, especially if it does not have to involve moving goods around physically.

Lol, it's not as if I expected any different opinion from some of you with an already biased mindset.

Juoflife1:
Bayelsa

Please how sure are you about Yenegoa?

Vickiechuks:
Owerri

Are you sure about Owerri office? I have been hearing that nothing serious is going on there.

LegendHero:


Everything should not be about the Igbos.

By the way, Work from home is different from sit at home.

What's the difference please??

contigiency:
This man always taking the lead ahead of other governors in innovative ideas.

But IPOB people started it and you insulted them

So after insulting Igbos for going on holidays every Monday, claiming we are destroying our economy, they are now going the same path?

If hypocrisy is a country, he would definitely be called Nigeria!!

Igboid:


The Perekule thing is ridiculous.
They corrupted King Pepple to Perekule.
These people are good at historical distortions.

I learnt the other day that the top flowing gown we have come to associate Ijaw and other Niger Delta groups with that GEJ wore alot was actually originally called "Eighty Bucks", because that was how much it cost to acquire them those days from the whites.
The illiterate Ijaws Ijawnized the "Eighty Bucks" to "Etibo".
And now they claim "Etibo" to be Ijaw dress.

Their entire historical claims were all mere fabrications, and the funny thing is that they actually thought they were factual

Imagine "eighty bucks" as cost of a foreign cloth eventually became an ijaw word "etibo" and now used as their native attire

Same with "Ama-onye-nabo" an Igbo phrase for two Igbo Kings in Bonny eventually became "Amanyanabo"which they now claim is an ijaw title for king

Iswearigad the kai-kai these guys are taking is seriously messing them up

GreatBoss:


Stop saying all these lies online.
Come to Bonny and say it.

I'm from Bonny and we are Ijaws.

See make I tell una, you guys will frustrate from now till forever.
We are Ibani-Ijaw people.
Both Bonny and Opobo.
and nothing you useless ibos can do about that.
We know who we are.

The moment anyone starts throwing insults just know they've lost the argument. If the great Igbo race that were acknowledged by foreigners as far back as 1700's and have continued to make exploits in all spheres of life are useless then I wonder what kai-kai drinking, lazy and delinquent ijaws would be called.

Yes, today you're from Bonny, tomorrow from Opobo, depending on where the argument is. If you like claim that Ama-onye-nabo is ijaw title or coerce the indigenes join IYC or to learn ijaw language, it changes nothing in the grand scheme of things because history has already been established that they're Igbos since ancient of days.

Of course, there are ijaws in Opobo and Bonny but they're settlers! You all will eventually return to Bayelsa.

Ekealterego:

These are very recent publications.

Where are the historical references?

What does the phrase mean?

Who established this link ethnographically first?

All our reference here came from 1800s or before 1906.
Algoa's reference from 1970 just at the end of the war is laughable for obvious reasons that we know.
Yeah, you have other references from 2011... Do you have older references? before 1910 at least.

That guy you quoted is full of hubris with no substance. He will just fill everywhere with meaningless trash, even going as far as quoting an ijaw local champion in the person of Alagoa.

I stopped taking him serious when he ignored neutral reports of recorded history, dating as far back as the 1700's only to be quoting fantasies from ijaw ethnocentric writers like Alagoa.

SMH.

DitariDisciple2:


That's never ever Opobo name.
Why are they not under Ibo socia-cultural organizations
But are in all Ijaw own.

You're obviously neither intelligent nor smart. If belonging to IYC is the argument you will bring forward when the Igbos will be bringing classified information by neutral whites dating back to the 1700's with all them emphasising that Opobo and Bonny are Igbo territories, then the joke is on you!

You've already lost the debacle and from the looks of things, you have nothing to prove that ijaws have any stake in both Opobo and Bonny except word of mouth

Since you guys want to reduce it to "your words against mine" confrontation, after shouting match, it is the evidence that actually matters and Igbos already have it

Ekealterego:

Rev. John Clarke did a lot of work mapping the languages and people to the maps in that area. H collected multiple samples of the dialects in 1848.
This is Ottam described and the samples from different districts within Otam. From the samples of the Language, Otam is definitely Ibos that are close to anywhere around cross rivers or Akwa-ibom.

Wow, this is so incredible!!!
So, all the recorded accounts by neutral White people from different nations throughout history asserted that Opobo and Bonny are Igbo territories yet ijaws are today fighting to landgrab those places??!

Well, thank God for these irrefutable facts, at least they would serve as exhibits at the right time. We will forcefully maintain the dignity and heritage of the Opobo and Bonny indigenes as bonafide Igbos, and there is nothing the "teeth filing cannibals" will do about it. If they go to court, they're bound to lose woefully and if they want to fight, it will even be worse for them.

If not for these distractions, Opobo and Bonny would have been made a seaport serving the region and they would have become full blown cities by now if not for the wickedness of ijaws. Anyways, the people of Opobo and Bonny need to know where their best interest lies and be more assertive.

Non in the SW
Okay, I just realized they don't use flights

On a more serious note, this is a pet project for Northern politicians trying to avoid their bandits and terrorist infested roads by making use of flights.

If you know, you know!

I need to do this ASAP, anyone with any information should help please!

Na wa o, nobody wan respond?

I no jus understand, does it mean no one got any info about immigration officer in SE and SS

I urgently need to renew my international passport but I keep hearing that passport booklets are not available in many places. Worse still, there are many that have continued to wait for months now to collect their passport without success.

I was told that Owerri immigration office is "scam" and going there is a waste of time and resources. So, who knows which state capital one can go to in SE or SS and obtain his passport without much delay? I also heard that Abakiliki immigration office is okay but I'm not sure so who can confirm please?

swagifted:
I work for that man hotel for Abuja(cctv installation) , man is stingy as Bleep.

All these entitlement mentality is so disgusting, gosh!

What do you mean he is stingy? Like he should be dashing everyone he comes across money like a drunken sailor? Or is he a politician representing your constituency?

Coscharis does not owe you anything, go out there and work for your money just like he did and maybe when you make it, you can decide to be throwing it at everyone you meet on the street.

1972xy:
[s]She got married in 1978. She got admission into teacher's college in 1979..
Passed out as a grade 2 teacher in 1981.
She remained in the village teaching in a local school.
She moved to Lagos in 1984 teaching in Tolu private school in Apapa.
Between 1979 and 1983, where was her husband? Who was he then?
Suddenly,even with her grade 2 certificate she became a director in her husband company.
The question is what is the source of this sudden wealth to establish an Auto shop because Maduka who because of his statue married a commoner in the village sent her to teacher's college ...remained in the village teaching.
How did he acquired the money is my question...
I know he made some money from coja ...through Atiku. Those bmw that was meant for coja officials were all cornered and resold.
Could he be he knew Atiku when he was the Comptroller of Apapa wharf. .while maduka was a clearing agent...running entries in the long room.
However, how did he make that money he used to float the company.?[/s]

If you continue like this, I bet you, you will not amount to anything in life. All these gibberish you wrote is to what end?

Coscharis wife died, you didn't commiserate with them or ignore if you don't want, only to turn to overnight backyard FBI?! Are you not a wicked wizard and sadist like this?

SMH.

All these afonja guys mocking Igbos about mkpuru miri are indeed living in a fool's paradise. Why there seem to be an outrage in Igboland concerning this issue is because we Igbos have a kindred spirit, we are naturally communal. So when the alarm was raised about this menace, everyone immediately swung into action to nip it in the bud.

I have lived in Lagos, and I can tell you that Lagos has since reached epidemic levels yet no one is talking about it. A huge percentage of Yoruba youths in Lagos, particularly on the mainland, in areas like Mushin, Oshodi, Ajegunle, Ikorodu etc. are already affected. That's why you will see these afonja youths always shouting, dancing and behaving like lunatics on the roads while everyone ignores them. In Kano too, Hausa youths are known to use all manner of things including sewage, provided it can make them high, yet no one is saying anything while many of the youths are wasting away. It shows how deluded they are to think that mkpuru miri is not already widespread in Kano. Maybe their elite even like it that way since it keeps them preoccupied.

I can only laugh at those mocking Igbos for taking decisive actions against drugs because the joke is actually on them
