Am sure till date, the north are yet to forgive the Igbos for what Kaduna chukwuma Nzengwo did to their great men..

please is Nzeogwu and Igbo man?
Am asking this question because Igbos in South South said they are not Igbos. They claim histories their masters wrote for them. And pass it down to their brainless children.

Major Nzeogwu a man from mid-western Nigeria (Today Delta state in South South of Nigeria) committed offence and Igbos from Eastern Nigeria (today‘s south east) are the ones paying for it.

Aguyi Ironsi is from Imo State (south eastern nigeria) he died because of foo.lish ambition of some soldeirs of the mid western extraction (south south).

Until all the igbos in Nigeria unite as one to fight their enemies things might never work out for all of us in this country.

The foolishness of the whole thing is that the igbos in DELTA, RIVERS & BENUE have been so brainwashed by their yoruba & hausa/fulani masters to believe that they are minority group in Nigeria. While the minority tribes in the north are all officially claiming to be hausa/fulani. They just want make sure that these igbos that live outside south east never come to terms with their really history.

They keep telling them that they are from Bini. It is funny how these people believ these things. Your ancestors are from bini but your dialect, your name & even culture are do not look like that of the binis. Your name & culture sound & look more like the people you claim that are your enemies.

You run into the arm of your enemies & they keep making you see how little you are. You shout haliluya because you are proud minority.

Listen to me; “it is better to beenvied than to be pitied“

Shame on all of you.

I agree.Nigeria was better before the discovery of oil,our economy was looming with our coal,oil palm,rubber,cocoa etc

the richest men in Nigeria are our retired soldiers. Those that served from 1966 to 1999.

These men own half of Nigeria‘s wealth. Many re even richer than Dangote & some of are them heavily invested into Dangote & tele communication now. And all of them are from the same region.

More than half of Nigeria‘s oil well are owned by retired military men of northern extraction.

Why this point? Nigeria became a mono economy because our past northern military heads of state were only interested in building wealth for their unborn children rather than helping Nigeria‘s economy to grow.

Until these men agree NIGERIA will not fully diversify though am thnkful to GOD for the tumbling oil price.

ferhyntorlah:
Yes G, we will.

Singing:
Ground dey for North oh;
Cocoa dey for West oh;
Oil palm dey for East oh; Nigeria go survive.

Nigeria go survive,

My people go survie oh,
Nigeri go survive!

Please who remembers the musician?

tochukwuifeduba:
YOU ARE TOO SENTIMENT. I GUESS YOU HAVE NO RELEVANT POINT TO ARGUE ABOUT. THANKS

mr tochukwu in a war situation when meet something strange, the first thing you do is to retreat & restratagise. And go back to attack.

Trained Soldiers dont fight like terorists or make shift soldiers. Nigerian soldiers retreated so that bomb unit can come into action.

Do you even know what land mine is? If know what it is, you will be more senstive with your “unfounded“ attack of GEJ & military.

Before you say anything again...mind you that these land mines are planted in the forest not in the desert.

tempest69:
you made your points and I feel your pain but must we retain an underperformed president? U will agree with me that Nigerians are becoming wiser and politically informed. I don't care where my president comes from as long as me, you , fellow NLanders and majority of Nigerians are well cared for.

i dont want to go into the arguement of perform or no perform but soon it will dawn on all of us that the underperformance is all a sham & propaganda to return power back to the north.

I say so because one of the things APC told us when they were campaigning is that GEJ has nothing in Agriculture but as it stands now minister of agriculture is being courted by the same APC. I am sure nobody retains a failure & if GEJ‘s ministers & policy really failed as we were told during campaign then i dont see reason for all the meetings with minister agriculture.

I doubt if Adamu Mua‘zu will survive as PDP chairman for the next 365days. But if eventually he does. He will only fight APC/GMB if they fail to fulfil the promise they made to him that made him sell off GEJ/PDP. Northern agenda is more important to him than the success of PDP in poll.

He collabrated with all those that rigged GEJ out. We know what he did and didnt do.

His word does no mean anything in the PDP of today. He will see fire after hand over.

What is the percentage of Nigerians who make use of banks in 2015? . If you have an idea to that question, then ask yourself :

What could be the percentage of Nigerians who make use of banks in 1966 ? almost 50 years ago. .

If only many of you can make attempt to use your brain a little, and stop been driven by hate and fables passed down to you by your fathers and mothers, you wont be thinking as you currently do.

let me not join you into bad mouthing game yet. However, life is built on history. Every individual, family & country has a history & it is history that guides us to wherever we are going. I didnt grow up in Nigeria, i grew up in a french country.

The story of Nigeria & Biafran war is what every child that grew up in the early 80s in any french country knew very well. Nigerian government has succeded in supressing the history of Nigeria that is why today HISTORY is no more a subject in our secondary schools.

What happend during the war is known fact to those who are born outside the shores of countries which are under british control or countries that were not colonised by GB.

Before the war the people that were controling Nigeria was Ndi Igbo. From civil service to business world.

As a matter of fact Odumegwu Ojukwu snr (not the soldier) owned half of Lagos whalf. And many properties in Lagos especially in Apapa & Ebute metta.

Igbos & yorubas have started doing banking transactions even before the colonial masters brought oyibo banking system to us.

Be that as it may. Even if they were just 1% of igbos that bank then, does it justify stealing their money & given them just 20pounds? Or does it justify what Saro Wiwa & co did by saying properties owened by core igbos are now abandoned properties?

Thats by the way. Let me give you one bad mouth...
If your father or your mother is ashame of telling you his or her life story. It means probably he was a thief of ur mother a prostitude.

God bless Biafra the land of RISING SUN

PDPwayoo:
U R ON UR OWN. IM FROM SS AND WE HAVE NO COMMON INTEREST WITH IGBO. THEY ONLY WANTS US IN BIAFRA FOR THEIR PERSONAL BENEFIT.
SS HAVE FOOD AROUND OLD BENDEL STATE REGION AND OIL IN THE DELTA REGION..........THE ONLY THING IGBOS HAVE IS PALM OIL.

Imo & Abia states are oil producing state, i hope you know that? Remember that Anambra also has oil that is being explioted presently. (though oil price is tumbling down & nobody at the moment is talking about Oil)

Now if IGBOS have only palm oil & are good in importation business.

Dont you know they will create a policy that looks like that of UAE. A country that produces little or nothing but sells everything saleable.

There are many countries in the world that have no oil but they are surviving.
Igbos are not begging none igbos of ss t join them.

But as i said and will always say: KEN SARO WIWA dined with the yorubas & hause/fulani (Nigeria) as against the Igbos (Biafra). The thank you he received from them is gallows (death by hanging).

[quote author=millionaireman post=33058400][/quote]what that means is that those Igbos who their bank documents were destroyed or missplaced never get anything in return even if they know their number & deteils offhand...

jascon1:
Ah ah now think am now. We r suffering is not a secret. Citizens from other nations run only to where they can milk huge profits, but most Nigerians are in Afghanistan n Pakistan. Even while they die there they hold on strong. They would rather die there than return. It proves the level or torture they face in their homeland. Is not that we don't have the resources to create a comfortable society for all citizens we have these in abundance. We r only hoping n hoping. Ppl r tired of this hopes let the change be visible to the commons in the society. Ah ah kini awon soro?

forget story my brother. Those who run away from Nigeria do so cos they are lazy & want to make money in a criminal way easily. Most of them are into drugs & financial crime.

Nigeria is the only country where you do not need so many licences & approval to start a business. Most of us here started with nothing & today we are grateful GOD for the journey so far.

Take a trip to some part of this country and see how men & women who are serious with their life & are not interested in quick drug money are making money through their craft & business.

I have experienced life both and outside to know that life in Nigeria is good.

Most times we speak trash about our school system but anytime a Nigerian appears outside this country, the country we find ourselves gives us job even ahead of their own citizens.

I am not saying that Nigeria is too good. What am saying is that Nigeria is not as bad as most NIGERIANS are making the world to be.

Some paint Nigeria black because they are seeking asylum so that they can eat free food & have more freedom to commit crime in the country where they are.

I believe in NIGERIA but if the country eventually breaks...

BIAFRA is my home... And I love the land of the RISING SUN.

God bless Ojukwu

I would have love the Minister to mention some of the products, if not all; so that we will not buy them in house in Nigeria..

can you imagine...laboratotry to teste yam.

There is nothing these white men wont turn us into.

dinachi:
Once again,the south south leads the south east to their doom! As the drama unfolds watch Ijaw man use Igbo man to negotiate his political relevance. At the end of the day a repeat of Biafra more monumentous in betrayal will unfold. The smarter Ijaw man will get back to being chums with the rest of Nigeria while the Igbo man will be left to bite his fingers and grumble quietly. As I speak it has not yet dawned on my Igbo brothers that the ONLY reason Ijaw man looked his way was because of Jonathan presidency and now that has been lost,pretence is all that is left.

i dont know your tribe or region but believe me Igbos do not need you advice of sugestion in their affairs... Trust me.

Keep moving forward & dont ever look back okay?

tempest69:
IGBO'S first to allied with the north in the second republic voting Shagari/ ekwueme at the expense of a southerner Awolowo. The Yoruba never complained. This guys rant too much Ah!!!! Anyway they don't have a central body cos every man is a king of his household. So am watching as they fight them self of on this amibode issue

come and see one of those that change history for foo.lish gain here.

Grand liar of the century...

Igbos never voted for Ekwueme at all. Igbos went for Zik but that‘s bythe way.

Igbo man can never vote for Awolowo because when the north couldnt defeat the Igbos during civil war with weapons Awo introduced blockade & that caused stavation that put the lives of millions of Ndi Igbo at the mercy of kwachioko. When the war was over the same Awo came up with 20pounds round number to every igbo man no matter how much you were worth.

Awo is a respected yoruba leader by the yorubas, Hausas never trusted him while the Igbos detest & hate him with PASSION.

OBJ is a Yoruba man & Igbos gave him all their votes in 1998 & 2003... While he yoruba brothers gave their votes to another person.

I am a believer of one NIGERIA but if federal character & quota system is not removed... Then let us go our different ways... P E R I O D!!!

ayokellany:
Ekwueme carved out the 6 geopolitical zones to share power not knowing he was condemning his own tribe to calamity

ekwueme was doing that believing that Nigeria will go into zoning structure, which if followed every part of this country will at the end of the feel happy. But the born to rule agents do not want to hear or see it.

kaybiel2u:
honestly it will be good if we are separated sef
diz Igbo people don't want to be part of Nigeria again let them go I am sure they will regret it

well the power that be in Nigeria doesnt share this your opinion.

It means your opinion doesnt come into play. Because so many Nigerian soldiers died only to make sure that Igbos (Biafra) didnt leave.

Igbos wants to go let Nigeria allow them to go freely.

Next time use your brain to do something better..okay?

vedd:
All these igbo people just dey deceive themself.
South-south is not part of your madness. You are on your own!

They should declare whatever sovereign Identity they want without delay. Let's see how cohesive they become, and the states/ethnic group that they will try to force into their idiotic rebellion.

These plonkers are busy isolating themselves and creating more enemies for themselves at a time when sensible people are working hard to build bridges and workable national alliances.

R u b b i s h !!!

does Agbeyegbe sound like Igbo name to in your ears or does it look like it in your eyes?

Ken Saro Wiwa ranted just like this when he thought that he was a friend to hausa/fulani & the yorubas. But in mid 90s when the veil death was about to envelope him. He discovered (though late) that these people have only one interest...

Crude oil...

I hope the same fate doesnt befall you young man.

Mogidi:
This is what I want to see in the present political climate. This election taught me one thing, the Igbos were right to demand their own country in the past, our SS parents failed to see the bigger picture.



No Surrender!!!

Humn!!! This is all i can say

bushdoc9919:
If you read what he actually said....he said that fuel can come down to N40 if all the refineries were working AT full capacity....not a minimal capacity.(and even then we may still need some new refineries.).

Something which Dizzy and her oga failed to do over the last 6 years.

please i read something in that thing Mr West. He said he wrote something on this refinary issue in 1990... I dont understand it at all...

Does it mean that by 1990 our refinaries were already in a very bad shape?

LasgidyPort:
Lagos lawyer Femi Falana (SAN) has condemned the sack of former Inspector General of Police (IGP) Suleiman Abba. He described Abba’s removal as “illegal and unconstitutional”.

“It is a contravention of sectin 216 (2) of the 1999 constitution, which states that ‘before removing the IG form office, the President shall consult the Nigeria Police Council’.

“Since the council, whose members include the 36 State Governors, was not consulted, Mr. Abba’s sack is null and void. It should be rescinded forthwith,” Falana said.

this man is always buying into matters that doesnt concern him.

I am waiting to see how he will critisiz APC/GMB‘s government when they come into power My 29th.

Abba himself said his sack is the hand of God.

I am watching him... Soon GEJ will hand over. Then he will have less work to do.

Mtcheeeeewww!!!!

Wsdm:
The reason for this is to ecourage people who have interest only in Islamic education to buy into the western one. But those who are willing to study are truly bright. Know that it is only the core Northern states that have such nonchalance towards western education. The Ebiras, Nupes,Ighalas, Idomas,Kajes, Birom, Gwaris etc are all tribes in the North that do not play with book. Why not extend the hand of presidential schorlaship to all those other tribes?

these tribes you mentions are doing great in schools and they also struggle like any other person in Nigeria to get admition, however. Believe it or not; when people talk about backwardness of the north. These people you mentioned never comes to mind because they dont have the privileges some other people in the same north have.

Bros the truth is that i am always tribal or sectional when these kind of issues are raised. What happens in federal civil service cos of federal character & quota system is killing me.

Most Hausa/fulani people that heads us are nothing but...(wont say that here)

They laugh at us even, wondering why we should be working so hard for the promotion that most times doesnt come while they gain promotion doing little.

My dream for all in Nigeria is for us or our children to have equal oppotunity to compete without anything like federal character or quota system coming into play.

Federal character & quota system have killed motivation that drives personal (for n individual) & collective (as a country) growth.

I wish things were different...

Wsdm:
If you have never been to the North before, ask those of your friends who have. Any student from the North who got second class can challenge any of you with first class. We dont give out degrees in the North through prostitution and cultism. Ask Jega.
The house leaders simply asked for transparency in the schorlarship scheme and you are tailking of federal character. Why are you people so boastfull of wrong doing?

i agree with you dear but where i have a problem is in this.

If a pupil from anambra state will have to score at least 137 to gain admition into unity school (fed gov col) & a pubil from zamfara will score 20 to get admition into the same school.
Dont you think that tells us more than we are hearing?

The difference between 137 & 20 is 117... Some of us would want to believe that the north is not backward but what we see in reality affects our believe about the north & attitude towards education.

ferhyntorlah:
Isn't that how governance should be? Continue with the good ones and improve the bad/decayed ones. I have no doubt GMB's tenure will be faaaaaaaaaaaaaaar better than GEJ's. Thank GOD GEJ's time as president will soon be OVER!!!

my sister we are saying the same thing, however. APC told us that all GEJ is parading as achievment in “agriculture“ is all lies & failure. But now they are courting the minister of “agriculture.“

You know APC told us that there is nothing good in GEJ‘s administration. Abi are you saiying that after the election, something good started manifesting in GEJ‘s administration? Soooo that is my point.

theV0ice:
Remember your conjectures CAN NEVER be taken as truth because you said it

you get sense my brother. You be correct guy...


What of if Audu Ogbe is the one that said that bring back our girl campaign is offshoot of APC, will you believe it?

He voiced out a secret & he was attacked left right & center, then he apologizd & cos APC owns media houses of propaganda, it dies a natural death.


Even fo.ols know that Chibok girls abduction is a sham, charade & false alarm just to destroy a man who GMB will implement most his policies.

GEJ the clueless one has already set the stage where GMB baba once will dance on. We just pray he dances very wel.

Demburrows:
That means apc knows Gej had got some good techs working for him in various sectors, looking at the way his govt was painted black.

my brother they know very well. Watch & see how GMB will soon tell us that he will continue with most of GEJ‘s policy.

That is why GMB wants technocrats & not politicians. He knows that tecnocrats will not mess up those policies of this administraion. But politcians will for selfshness & ego destroy the good works of GEJ‘s administration.

APC has no blue print on how to run Nigeria. They will use most of what we are already using today.

Goddex:
[size=16pt]Works minister too
need to be retained[/size]

lolzzzz

Even if Buhari does not retain any minister that worked with GMB, he will continue most of the programmes of this administration.

They knew that GEJ‘s administration are really working but for the sake of wanting to be in Aso Rock, they were saying he was doing nothing.

Soon all of us will hear GMB tell us that he will continue with GEJ‘s policy on:
1. Agriculture
2. Transport
3. Work
4. Petroluem etc

All kinds of individuals with various sizes of purses and bank accounts will become state governors in Nigeria come May 29. But who is the richest among them? Who’s the most successful both in politics and in the world of business? Naij.com guest contributor has found it out.

These are still moot points. However, according to the available information the crown goes to the man of the moment in Niger state, Abubakar Sani Bello (aka Abu Lolo).

Among all governor-elects only his family has been listed by Forbes magazine among the richest not only in Nigeria, but also in Africa. The Bellos are involved in various kinds of business activities including construction, oil and gas, and communications. Abubakar Bello senior, Abu’s father, is said to own 40% of MTN Nigeria.

Abu Lolo’s in-law is also one of the richest Africans, because his brother Ibrahim is married to Aliko Dangote’s daughter. Aliko Dangote, though having lost $10 billion of his $25-billion, is still Africa’s richest man, according to Forbes.

Abu Lolo himself is married to Dr Amina Abubakar, daughter of Nigeria’s former head of state Abdussalami Abubakar and former first lady Justice Fati Abubakar.

Fati Abubakar, who is the incumbent chief justice of Niger state, is likely to swear her son-in-law in as governor unless she chooses to delegate this responsibility.

These credentials, including the fact that Abu Lolo’s father Col Sani Bello used to be a military governor of Kano state, make Abubakar Sani Bello the richest governor-elect in Nigeria.

let the stealing of state fund continue.

Papa stole & have... Papa inlaw stole ...now it is the time for the pikin to cap it all up...

Which way Nigeria? All our retired Military men are all billionaires...

Okay oh

Ishilove:
Ukwuani is not exactly igboid. There are elements of Yoruba and Edo contained therein.

the yoruba & edo element you get in Ukwuani is cos of proximity & relationship it has with those people. “Ukwuani“ is actualy and igbo word.

Mama don calculate say she go be landlord for that secretariat but God pass her and I'm sure Buhari would cancel the foolish project.
She just helped Aisha sef, cos that would be the last thing she would want to do at this early stage cos they are in for real business, not for party.

with which power will Buhari cancel the project? Is it federal government project?

adorablepepple:
Mama peace has started ooooo, until she receives final disgrace she won't rest

there will be nothing like first lady in GMB‘s government. So why this rant?

Who will sponsor the July event if Mama Peace leaves without holding the meeting? GMB said there will be no budget for the office of the lady. And beside Aisha Buhari is in support of her husband‘s decision to scrap the unconstitutional office of the first lady.

This shouldnt be news at all.

Nigerians keep giving them hours, from 24hrs to 48hrs to 72hrs...


Funny

what do you expect Nigerians to do? Born down shoprite, mtn offices & towers?

That will be foolishness of highest order. Because when you destroy a structure in your land, you are making your land uninhabitable.

The only thing Nigeria can do is to depot SA citizens which can only happen if there is a sharp disagrement with the SA government.
