"If you compare Ambode's achievements after 2 years to Buhari's own in the same time and you'll find that Ambode has achieved more than PMB!"- Reno Omokri.

LOL...Let us examine this statement. One, Reno Omokri has agreed that Buhari achieved in two years, just that Ambode achieved more than him. Unfortunately, Shameless Omokri failed hypocritically to compare where Ambode and Buhari were coming from. If Fashola had handed over to Buhari and Jonathan handed over to Ambode, the story would have been different and vice versa!!! Thirdly, all the LGs in Lagos have been under progressive management since 1999, this cannot be said of any other state in Nigeria. LAGOS is just one state that Reno Omokri's party has never gotten its fingers on before.......

And that's why Reno cannot compare Wike's achievement or Dickson's or Fayose's with PMB's. The only example he gave is AMOBDE.

Shame on Reno!

Good efforts

This is a tough question.

Obviously, you are a student of National Open University of Nigeria. Pls correct me if am wrong

We asked for people in Nigeria not abroad. Many of those you mentioned went to school.

Do you know any successful Nigerian that didn't go to school? Name them even if they live in your village or state.

They should keep the terms to themselves and tell others what they need to know

THE WEATHER FORECAST RUBBISH
When listening to weather forecast on our television or radio stations, all you hear is that so so states will have 30 degree, 45 degree or 18 degree Celsius (°C) . How many people understand those terminologies? I often wonder.
I love weather forecast, but the truth is that, what they often say seems like rubbish to majority of Nigerians. While in reality, many need weather forecast to plan their day and businesses, forecast terminologies are often said in a language that is alien to the people, hence they see forecast as absolute rubbish not worthy of their time. Only the few elites that understood the terminologies make adequate use of it.
I have often wonder, when will weather forecasters on media learn that this is Nigeria?
This is a Nigeria where only about 30% of the population are said to be educated. And even among the 30% educated population, how many of them can truly understand the meaning of those weather forecast terminologies if not properly explained?
The point I am trying to make is that, for Nigerians to take weather forecast seriously, for them to truly understand and appreciate the work of weather forecasters, those forecasting must go back to the drawing board, break down the terminologies they use and speak the language majority of Nigerians can understand. Only when people understand what you are saying, that’s when they can appreciate its value.
Weather forecasts must learn to communicate in the language of the people, that is when their profession can begin to attract the needed attention.
It must be noted that, many business people in rural areas need weather forecast to plan their businesses, but their inability to understand what forecasters are saying doesn’t make them understand how it relates with them.
So, weather forecasters must speak in simply language, tell the people in clear terms, rain is likely to fall in Abuja today, Sokoto’s Sun will be very limited, heavy rain expected in Lagos throughout the day. As for Kwara, its going to be very hot etc.
If people can get the message in such a simple way, I see weather forecasters getting more recognized and appreciated in the near future. Mr.Rights

WHY OUR REFINERIES CAME BACK TO LIFE TOO SOON
Few days ago, the news of our refinery coming back to life and hitting 90 per cent production capacity littered our airwaves.

Both PDP and APC are struggling to claim the achievement for their party.

However, i feel that such achievement shouldn't be claimed by anyone, as none of both parties actually did much to deserve the glory.

The coming back to life of the refinery is basically as a result of the fear of Buhari. Nothing more.

I reliably gathered from authoritative sources that the coming back to life of our refineries wasn't the work of anyone. Not Buhari,not Jonathan. I was told authoritatively that, there was wrong with our refineries. The only problem, according to my source is the lack of coal.

Contrary to what we were made to believe during the tenure of former president Goodluck Jonathan that our refineries need certain turn around maintenance, the authoritative source, who is the head of one of the refineries said nothing was needed to put it to work except coal.

The source who attribute the lack coal to unknown reason stated that, politicians took the advantage of the docile attitude of the former president to exploit the nation, while the presidents reaction to issues made it difficult for any anyone to speak up on the main issues affecting the refineries.

This is why you see that, despite not doing any turn around maintenance, the refineries are back to life.

It should be recalled that in March 2015, the former administration of Goodluck Jonathan said the refineries would come back to life in 2016 after the turn around maintenance, but without any turn around maintenance, all the refineries are now back to life.

If Igbo's cannot feed themselves when Nigeria blocked food from going to Biafra during the war, how can they feed themselves now that they are calling for another Biafra?

My point is that, before ever dreaming of Biafra, Igbo should think of how to provide food for themselves.

Don't be blinded by hate and sentiments.

What is wrong with igbo's?

When you read books like Things Fall Apart, Efuru and their likes, you get to learn a great deal about the Igbo culture. The men are usually men of honour, they mean what they say and say what they mean. Most of all, when or if a decision taken takes a bad turn, they are ready to face it like the warriors they are.

Funny thing is that these kind of Igbo men seem to exist in meusiums and old history books, but no longer in real life. Ok, you can find a handful here and there but a majority of them today are better of taking the steps of Bruce Jenner.

When you hear some Igbo men talking about how the north marginalised them, in terms of governance via millitary coup, you may be forced to believed that millitary coups are conducted by ballots rather than bullets. Especially when Igbos are pioneers of coup de tete in this country. Instead of sitting on your sorry asses and disrespecting the legacies of your ancestors, why not take your guns and do it the way it's done?

Again you complain of systematic killing, when it was you who first initiated the systematic killings of prominent Nigerian leaders. When shit hit the fence, you start whining in such a way that is hypocritical and anoying. The Sardauna for example was not only a leader of the Hausa, he was leader of Muslims in Nigeria. If you want to kill a man like that, be ready to face the consequences and don't cry.

Then came Biafra, which any strategic leader and general knows it's a stupid idea. You do not start a war you obviously know you cannot win. Especially when your soldiers shamelessly fed on food that was meant for poor civilians, mainly women and children, forcing federal forces to cut off food supply, because obviously, you cannot feed your enemy, that is stupid. But then again, you blame Nigeria for starving your people, how? So you mean to say you had no plans to provide food for your people before going to war? And by the way, why not take responsibility since you claim to no longer belong to Nigeria, what kind of logic is that?

Then just a few months back, not only did you insult Buhari inside out, you walked to the graveyard, with your flashlights and shovels, dug out his dead wife and daughter, vomited, maturbated and peed all over them without any iota of shame. You even swore that Buhari will not become president, and made us all believe that you are custodians of the gates of heaven and hell and have the power to do and undo. Today? Different story. Open every newspaper and what you read is "Buhari has shown his hatred for Igbos". What the hell is wrong with you guys?

And again today, we are back to the good old Biafra thing again.

Kontinwu.

WHO IS CHEATING WHO?
This is getting really hilarious, most Nigerians feel betrayed and shortchanged by Nigeria, and they all want their pound of flesh.

Now, let's assume the disgruntled represent a majority of their "ethnic" groups, this means everyone wants out. That is, over 250 "tribes" or nations want out.

Now, my question is this, if they all get their wishes who's gonna be left? Better still, where are they all going to

Another interesting puzzle is this, their problem is undeniably with the Nigerian government, but how come no one seems to realize that their state/tribal governments are still the Nigerian government, and will remain with them as they "leave"?

Same leaders, same politicians, same lootocrats, same problem(s), and a weaker group to fight it. How have they changed anything?

How about multi-ethnic States? How will they manage their own brand new ethnic squabbles? Mind you, there isn't a single mono-ethnic state in Nigeria.

Is it not wiser to seek a civil resolution based on rational enquiries, to these perceived differences? Rather than bitter and hate driven disputes?

Lastly, I understand why the deeply religious may hate and suspect people from other religions vis-a-vis ethnic groups, but how can a self confessed humanist manage to hate people of different cultures??

FOR THE MATURED MINDS ONLY
Odua this, Biafra that, Arewa this, Ijaw nation that... all delusions of grandeur.

The rest of the advanced world is working towards integration (united we stand), dumb Africans are clamoring for disintegration (divided we fall).

If every 'nation' get this twisted wish Nigeria alone will have over 300 countries, 300 times weaker than one united Nigeria. You don't want to count how many useless thousands of squabbling entities will emerge from Africa.

Where all these stupid thinking is emerging from beats the shit outta me.

What is it with the black man's obsession with hate? Self hate especially?

Even our geniuses are retarded by it, and neither does global exposure cure it!

BIAFRA CHAT ROOM
http://mrrightsng..com/2015/07/biafra-chat-room.html

I can't explain how I burst into the chat room of the Biafran early this morning, I didn't use to take them serious but today I discovered that I miss a lot for ignoring the chat room. In fact you will catch much fun and fall in love with their ideology. So funny people in that chat thread. . There were many people there Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, Niger Delta, Ibibio, Efik etc. I know these people based on their chat comments which bore ethnic loyality as usual. . To start with someone said in Biafra they won't tolerate Hausa idiots or Yoruba cowards nor Ibibio/Efik who are betrayers. Another man said they will pay back Ogoni/Andoni and fakeIgbo that collaborated with Nigeria troops in PHC in 1966. Another one said Biafra is God's project in making so they won't tolerate homosexual/lesbian in that place because God hates them. Another one appeal that its not good to hinder people freedom of sexual preference...lol. . In a jivy issue of leadership came up. Some people said the man Nnamdi Kanu is a traitor who is trying to hijack what Nwazuruike had done. Suddenly heaven let loose about who's the true leader of the abstract Biafra. From there division came! Some support Kanu, some Nwazuruike. Some said both can work together. They listed all murders carried out by Nwaz and how he extorted money from people and politicians and how he endorsed GEJ...LWKD. . Some even said they don't need leaders! That anybody can emerge as leader. They said Igbos are not like coward Yoruba that hide under leaders. . After the leadership tussle came the issue of Biafra state capital. Some said Aba, some Owerri, some Nnewi to honour Ojukwu. That caused a lot of chaos as some started calling Ojukwu names that he ran away when needed most. Some said he went for negotiation, some blablabal! Some supported Onitsha but some said Onitsha people are traitors due to their loyality to Asaba people and they are not true Igbo..lol! The person who mentioned Enugu was tagged a mad man. All these with curse and insults on each other and occassional insults on Hausa or Yoruba who dare comment that its a castle in the air. . Further, on the pro Biafran chat a crazy guy from SS burst in to ask where will they get resources! So funny! A guy answered that their brothers from SS will go with them and mumu Hausa n lazy Yoruba will be stranded lol. . Suddenly a guy from SS came on to say if Igbos think of the oil of SS they will fail because its not on their territory. Then one Igbo said five states in Biafra have oil that are yet to be explored. I can't stop laughing! . Instantly, one guy Chima who I eventually knew that he schooled in FUTA Akure said Biafra and SS will soon organise meeting on how both can work together. So funny that I keep on laughing that I said so I have being missing this comical trend since. . Issue of boundary also came up. Some said just basic Igbo lands will be carved. Some said from Benin but exclude Calabar and Ogoja because they are wicked traitors who seized Igbos' assets in 1966. . One bad Hausa boy said how will they move their assets in Kano, Lagos and Oyo state! Some said they will sell them in Biafra pounds, some opinned that they will still be coming there,so far Biafrans can come and do business in Nigeria...lol. . So funny a chat room. . Someone raised the issue of Igbos who can't trace their home again! They said those people won't be an issue as they are already lost Igbos! . So many issues and hillarious hopes. . I didn't pass any comment because my conclusion may be silly as coward Yoruba boy but all I know, the words of Huxley and Foucault won't depart from my mouth which says . "The only lesson we learn from history is that we don't learn anything from history". . Period.

15 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IGBO AND BIAFRA
By Mr.Rights

After observing some Igbo people carefully, I took adequate note of the way they reason, listen to their point of views, understood their fears and worries and seek to understand their unending quest for dominance, under the guise of self determination or lack of justice in Nigeria.

I came to the following conclusion:

1. There are two kind of Igbo. We have the Igbo and sectional Igbo. The Igbo person will always think global even if he his the most local, while the sectional Igbo will always reason sectional even if he his in the global community. To an igbo person, there is no superiority or inferiority, all that exists is equality. But to the sectional Igbo, Igbo is superior, others are inferior.

2. An Igbo person is the best of any human you can find, but the sectional Igbo is the worst of all human. It doesn’t matter how much they are educated, what mattered to a sectional person is his sectionalism. But this is not just about Igbo, it’s a symptom in every tribalistic person. Every sectional person, be it an Hausa or Yoruba are worse of all humans. At a time when the global community is integrating and finding means of getting more united, it is a sad thing that in Africa,especially in Nigeria which should serve as model for other African countries, we still have people who think the only means of integration and self determination is causing division. No wonder Africa remain backward.

3. Igbo is cool, calm, reasonable and often reserve,when you meet one, he or she is a treasure to behold. But the sectional igbo is arrogant and sometimes unreasonable, they are the lousy type who makes unnecessary noise to get undeserved attention.

4. Igbo hates tribalism, but sectional igbo is proud of his tribalism. He his not only discriminatory against other tribes in Nigeria, he his equally discriminatory to his fellow igbo whom he considers as lesser igbo. E.g, A sectional igbo from Anambra would discriminate against Igbo from Imo. 5. The most unjust Nigerian is a sectional Igbo, who hide under self determination to cause the death of over 2million Igbo’s without tendering any apology or showing sign of remorse, yet still nursing the ambition of leading more igbo to cause disobedience of the state. While he and his families are safe, he calls the gullible poor to the war front in his quest for fame, popularity and to grab power at all cost using the blood of his poor tribal men and women..

6. Kill a whole elephant for a sectional igbo to eat, he or she may still accuse you of marginalizing igbo for failing to give them the snail.
