Why are we trying to please the tribe that kept us on reserve gear perpetually in our drive to the future ?.

Forgotten History Of Igbo Tribe And Northern Alliance.

Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of nigeria;

Chief of Army Staff was from SE
Chief of Naval Staff was from SE
IG of Police was from SE
Chief of Defence Staff was from SE
Internal Affairs Minister SE
External Affairs Minister SE
Education Minister South SE
Many other key ministries to SE
Parliament President SE
Unilag VC from SE
The University of Ibadan VC from SE
North resisted same at ABU!

Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!!

Out of all the most senior officers in nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed.

Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!

We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is a tendency to think those are truths and facts.

*What follows are documented facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity!"*

Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

*“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central government because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then. Today, he is shouting restructuring that he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”*.

WHAT BIAFRANS WILL NEVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE REAL CAUSE OF THEIR WOES in nigeria TODAY:

The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in nigeria. in their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire nigeria nation. The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating.

U have already commenced 2023 Presidential election campaign. What an effort in futility.

Salute the guy courage but he can't save Nigeria. The country has damaged beyond repair. The Man in Ask rock is presiding over liquidation of Nigeria.

When Igbos rejected Buhari both in first and second terms everyone thinks they are being tribalistic now the consequences are glaring. Ali Ndume and others should bury their heads in shame. Say Baba has come to stay. Corruption has grown well, Boko Haram, Banditry and Herdsmen militia have also come to stay. Grumbling over them is only medicine after death.

Kobojunkie:
There is no such thing as 'Holiness' of the Sabbath day... You actions determine the holiness of that day as far as you are concerned.

Jesus Christ is a New Covenant for all those who will choose to accept what He came to bring to man. Those who chose to continue to follow the Old covenant though, have no share in what Jesus Christ offers mankind.

Both old and new testament centered on Jesus Christ. It is impossible to separate both when it comes salvation of men . Jesus has been from the beginning John 1:1 He is the Lord of the Sabbath not of Sunday. Mark 2:28 Read your Bible stop preaching commandments giving by men

dalass:
The Apostles met on the first day of the week aside Saturday... Pentecost was on first day of the week because the Christians were gathered together for prayers
.

You can gather in day for prayer that doesn't transfer the holiness of the Sabbath to that day. Jesus himself said until the heaven and Earth past away no iota of the commandments will be removed. Study your Bible.

wunmi590:
When God created the world, He rested on the seventh day. When God gave the ten commandments to Israel, He commanded Israel to rest on the seventh day as well. In Exodus 20:11 the reason given for that is that God rested on the seventh day from His creation work. In Deuteronomy 5, we find the second version of the ten commandments. The reason that God gives to rest on the Sabbath is to remember that the Lord delivered Israel from Egypt (Deuteronomy 5:15).

Sabbath law in the New Testament
So the Sabbath given by God in the Old Testament is the seventh day. It started with sunset on Friday and ended with sunset on Saturday. That is the Sabbath that the Jews are still celebrating.

How is the situation in the New Testament? In the New Testament we read that we are not under the law, but under grace (Romans 6:14). Christians do not have to submit to the ceremonial law anymore. The New Testament shows in several ways that the Sabbath law does not apply to Christians:

All other nine commandments are repeated in the New Testament, but the Sabbath commandment is not repeated.
Paul never wrote to the gentile churches he planted that they had to keep the Sabbath. Since the Sabbath was not part of their culture, that certainly would have been necessary if Paul had been of the opinion that they had to keep a Sabbath rest.
The churches in the New Testament met on Sundays, not on the Sabbath, like the Jewish synagogues.
Paul explicitly teaches that the Sabbath is just a shadow of things to come, but that the reality is found in Jesus. He gives us the heavenly rest. Therefore Paul forbids us to judge other people on the basis of whether or not they observe a Sabbath (Colossians 2:16-17).
The Lord’s day
The Jews met on the Sabbath. Christians started meeting on Sundays (see Acts 20:7, 1 Corinthians 16:2). They did that because Jesus was risen from the dead on a Sunday. And appeared to them at least on the first and second Sunday after He was risen (John 20:19,26). Almost immediately the Sunday was called ‘the Lord’s day’ (Revelation 1:10).

So it is clear that Christians do not need to keep the Sabbath on Friday and Saturday. It is also clear that the church, following Jesus’ lead, from the beginning had its main meetings on Sunday. This does not mean that the Sabbath laws were transferred to the Sunday. We are under grace, not under the law.

That the Sabbath is fulfilled in Jesus, and that we therefore do not painstakingly have to follow the Old Testament Sabbath laws, is great news. But it would not be wise if we would use that to say we can now work each and every day. That the Lord rested on the seventh day of His creation work still is a powerful lesson for us. Rest is a blessing that we receive from the Lord. That the Sabbath law is fulfilled in Jesus probably means we should enjoy rest more, not less than in the Old Testament; that we should focus on God longer, not shorter than in the Old Testament.

Jesus’ fulfillment
While we do not need to be afraid that we are sinning if we work on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, one great way to honor Jesus’ fulfillment of the Sabbath law is to set the Sunday as much apart as possible to go to church, to meet Christian brothers and sisters, and to focus on God through prayer, Bible reading and the reading of Christian books.

Fake fake teaching. Through out the Bible there was nothing like worshipping on Sunday. God is not author of confusion. Jesus and other apostles never gave credence to Sunday worshipping. Luke 4:16 Jesus went to synagogue every Sabbath as His custom was. All the churches planted by Paul are all headquartered in Jerusalem. Paul just like Jesus worshipped on the sabbath.see Acts 18:4.
Sunday worship is a symbol of paganism. Man attempt to change the law of God.

These politicians are shameless. Always going back to their vomit. I only pity their brainless followers.

What's wrong with some folks here. I mean why are people commenting before a post is made . Im waiting to be the first to comment all for invain as new post comes with comments.

To those who think that the Igbos are not organized politically for 2023 presidency I seek your pity. 2023 will answer for itself.

Your are more chronic liar . With Aba Abia state can't be 3rd Class state. There are bad roads everywhere. There are plenty of bad roads in Lagos and Ogun state. Moreover the most busiest interstate route is Aba to Lagos.
So and eat so that your brain will have some energy to power it.

The war against Boko Haram seems endless.
Our Government is already celebrating victory.

Good one from the mother land

Kalu should start creating his own isolation centre because these men are coronavirus friendly.

Major general Victor Giadom has suspended APC constitution, ousted the appointed Acting chairman and declared himself Commander in-thief of armed forces of APC. What a coup.

KanwuliaExtra:
It is INEVITABLE.
The south is not united.
Thanks to AFONJAKASSES!
They would rather see a Northerner in power FOREVER, to protect their selfish, tribalism and extremely bigoted socio-economic interests.

2023 with APC vs PDP?

North vs North. . . . North wins.
North vs South. . . . . North wins.
North vs East. . . . North wins.
North vs West. . . . North wins.


The South remains the SLAVES of the North FOREVER!

Northerners are the actual slaves. Check out where they live, then kind menial jobs majority of them do. They polish my shoes for just #20. Winning election does not change this very fact.

APC and PDP are like danfo bus

Story of my life. I'm from Obaseki family. Once upon a time I was a Governor. I did my best to bite off the finger that fed. My experience is not something I can wish my enemies. My story goes on.

The party noted that the President’s failure to express any commitments to electoral reform in his 38-minute [pre-recorded] address showed that his administration had no plans to guarantee credible elections in our country.
So it was not life broadcast. Nigeria is a fiction.

The scared geometry shape I'm seeing represents what?

If this new is true then Aba is on the way to reclaim her past glory. By the commissioner of environment mentioned was he not the one that died of recent or this is not a current news.

Truly 5 years of economic banditry and 16years of magnificent looting. What a banana republic.

What do expect when you have leaders of yesterday as today 's leaders.

No. 1 State in Nigeria setting the pace for others. No other tribe can do this except the most detribalised Igbo nation. We have seen so many illustratious igbos giving palliatives to all regions. Governor Ikpeazu is over there representing while the northerners are over there sending almajiris to their home states instead of caring for them.

The monster of an Igbo man can be tamed. It has been tamed multiple times.

If IPOB have been found to be in possession of guns, they will be dealt with and NOTHING will happen.

Tamed by who and when. First class slave.

Too much dependence on Chinese manufacturing companies has made Nigeria and Africans inferior to China. This is a wake up call to Africa in area technology.

The trio are still work in progress. They have not achieved 10% of to their career goals so celebrating them now will be misleading.

When will this be over? Humanity is facing extinction.

I don't really understand these statistics.Lagos lowest with the rate of hunger resulting to proliferation of corporate begging which I have not seen in Abia. The statitistian general of Nigeria and his colleagues are not in touch with realities they are still using the data of 90s.

It is down on Nigeria that oil will someday become worthless. Only best option is diversify the economy technologically not meaningless Agriculture Buhari is talking about. I don't why this government can not copy from China, Japan , South Korea etc.
