Rgade: They better not damage that forest in the name of beautification. I hope they haven't cut any of the trees
GBAM!!!
My brother 1,000 likes for you!
One hopes they don't damage the priceless natural beauty in the name of building some cheap, cheap cheap structure !!!
Our people don't often value natural beauty and think cheap blocks and concrete can equate natural beauty. The way I see people doing cheap concrete floors in their entire compound without a single flower, grass landscaping or aesthetic trees, and they think "bare german floor" is "beautiful".
What has made America and Europe beautiful are the widespread use of grass landscaping, flowers & trees all over their cities and countryside!
gidgiddy: The Nigerian media, particularly those of the North and west, have consistently propagated a series of lies against late Biafran Warlord, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, for the last 50 years since the end of the war. Some of these lies have assumed a life of their own. Im here to debunk 7 of these lies so that people may know the truth
1) That Ojukwu lost no family member in the war:
Contrary to popular belief that Ojukwu lost no relations to the war, Ojukwu lost his own brother. Ojukwus younger brother, Tom Bigger, died while fighting in the Nsukka sector of the war
2)That Ojukwu never visited the war front: Not only did Ojukwu visit the front several times, he even personally led "operation Igwuruta" that cleared Nigerian forces from Oguta.
3)That Ojukwu forced the minorities of the Eastern Region into Biafra without Consultation: Before Ojukwu declared Biafra, he convened the "Eastern Nigeria Consultative Forum", a body that comprised all the chiefs, provincial heads and trade union leaders of the 20 provinces that made up the old Eastern Region. They met in Enugu and voted overwhelmingly for the Eastern Region to become an independent country and mandated Ojukwu to declare Biafra. When you compare this to Nigeria which Lugard created in 1914 without even giving notice to anybody, you begin to understand the hypocrisy.
4) That Ojukwu was not senior to Gowon: Gowon was commissioned an officer in 1956 while Ojukwu was in 1957. However, Ojukwu joined the civil service in 1955. When Ojukwu was commissioned in 1957, his commission date was backdated to 1955 to reflect when he joined the civil service. This made Ojukwu to become senior to Gowon.
5)That Ojukwu dressed like a woman to escape Biafra: Ojukwu left Biafra via Uli Airport. Why would Ojukwu disguise himself as a woman to go an Airport in an area still under his control? Does that make any sense? Besides, people like NU Akpan, AA Madiebo and Philip Effiong have all written in their books how they escorted Ojukwu in a convoy to the Airport.
6) That Ojukwu was a coward for fleeing Biafra: The Oxford dictionary defines a coward as "a person who lacks the courage to do or endure dangerous or unpleasant things". Had Ojukwu wanted, he could have used his position to negotiate a top position in Gowon's government. Had Ojukwu wanted, he could taken his father millions and retired to any country in the world. Instead, Ojukwu fought a 3 year war of independence against impossible odds, against a much larger and better equiped enemy. In the end when he could not continue, he exited the scene as the alternative would have been to wait to be killed. Ojukwus bravery is in his will to declare the independence of an oppressed people and fight with for 3 years. Anyone who thinks he is a coward for not "staying back to be killed" is someone who is ignorant
7) That Ojukwu caused the war/declared war:
Ojukwu did not cause the war and he never declared any war. Contrary to the lie(s) peddled against Ojukwu, Ojukwu actually tried to prevent war. While Igbos were being killed all over Nigeria, Ojukwu appealed for calm and protected Northerners in the East. Ojukwu even risked his personal safety to meet Gowon in Ghana to prevent war by reaching an agreement. Despite Ojukwus best efforts to prevent war, Gowon still went ahead to break the Aburi agreement they signed, which left Ojukwu with no option than to declare Biafra. Throughout the war, Ojukwu travelled out for several peace meetings brokered by the international community, none of which Gowon bothered to attend. It was Gowon that caused the war by breaking the agreement they signed and it was he who declared war.
Like the events of first world war leading to the bigger and bloodier second world war, which has led to mutual respect of nations leading to world peace. Everyone knows that since Nigeria won the first civil war. Thus, they told all sorts of lies including denying that the pogrom didn't lead to the war. Their savage behavior would naturally lead to the second civil war that will be bigger and more bloody. Afterwhich, there will be mutual respect among Nigerian tribes if Nigeria is ever reconstituted again.
ADMAF: Even if they tender the 30 billion in front of you, you will still not believe. You have conditioned r brain to only think in a certain way.

I typically don't respond to goons. But, i want to tell you that your silly Pro-Igbo Kyari-propaganda with numerous monikers is totally pointless & fools nobody.
Obiano NEVER recieved any money! If not, please provide evidence that Obiano was paid N30 billion. The present FULANI cabal occupying Aso Rock would have paid Chad and Cameroon for their work on FG project, before they pay any Southeast nyamuri state - FACT!
Again, second Niger bridge is counterpart funded project that will be tolled so that Julius Berger will recover their money. If it were to be built as a normal Federal bridge project such as the bridge over River Niger at Ajaokuta or over River Benue , the current Federal Government would NEVER do it! They even tried changing the terms of the contract to claim it was being done with returned Abacha loot!
Those Fulani cabal closed down the only International airport in the southeast region claiming they would elongate it's runway to 3.5KM, provide instrument landing etc, etc, etc to make it come to par with other international airports in Nigeria. For all, these, they said it would cost a whopping N10 billion naira to do and there was no money. After the entire cream of Igbo society went to beg Buhari to approve the money ,they agreed to work on the airport. Go and check that airport, they have not enlongated it's current 3KM runway to reach 3.5KM as they said! Yet, they received a whopping N10 billion for it!! The airport is still closed 8 months after! Everyone knows how the Aso Rock cabal treats non-fulanis, talkmore of nyamuris. Even in the distribution of COVIK-19 palliatives to Nigerians in need. How many non-fulanis got anything from the Presidency or FG? So STOP LYING TO YOURSELVES BECAUSE KYARI KICKED THE BUCKET!
I am not against KYARI nor his penchant to influence federal government to make it wholly a Fulani affair. But please STOP creating lies to make him a saint or Pan-Nigerian which he isn't.
ANSMEDIA: Anambra State mourns the passing of Abba kyari
1. The people of Anambra State join other Nigerians to mourn the departure of Malam Abba Kyari, the dedicated and intelligent Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari from August 27, 2015, until last Friday, April 17, 2020, when he died in a Lagos hospital of complications arising from COVID-19. The departure was unexpected. When it was announced three weeks ago, shortly after he attended the National Economic Council meeting in Abuja, that he was afflicted by the coronavirus, he looked strong enough to survive the illness. One important lesson from this tragic development is that the coronavirus is real and deadly. Therefore, all Nigerians must continue to fight the pandemic together.
2. Malam Abba was a Nigerian nationalist and patriot. He exhibited enormous interest in Federal Government projects in Anambra State. He always inquired from Governor Willie Obiano the progress of work on such major projects as the Zik Mausoleum, the 2nd Niger Bridge and the reconstruction of failed roads in our state. He also displayed interest in the repayment of over N30billion used by the state government to rebuild failed federal roads in the state over the years.
3. The people and government of Anambra State are profoundly saddened by the untimely passage of this pan Nigerian. We commiserate with President Buhari, the Federal Government and the Abba Kyari family over the loss. We pray that the Almighty grant Malam Abba Kyari a place in paradise.

Creating an enduring legacy is what matters most in everyone's lifetime. Great people are men who walked on this planet and used their time, position and resources to positively change their country or the world for better. Without an enduring legacy, you lived for nothing and infact, your life was actually wasted.
With everyone "reacting" to Abba Kyari's demise, i am yet to see any that said he championed one good deed or another. I am thus bewildered if he lived at the corridors of power and didn't positively impact the lives of 200 million of his countrymen?
I would like those who knew the good ,bad or ugly deed of Abba Kyari to summarize them here for everyone to better understand who that man was.
plaetton: I agree to some extent. The North's problem is not about lack of education. That is too simplistic. After all, the North Has produced a lot educated elites/leaders since the colonial era.
The North's problem is the Northern Elites, dominated by the Fulanis. They are the most parasitic class in the world. They leach on their people and on Nigeria. They behave like Arab potentates. They love absolute power and they loathe equality and egalitarianism . They deliberately keep their people uneducated and dependent on handouts, because they themselves depend on and feed fat on federal largesse .
None of them like to speak the truth. it is up to them to keep lying to themselves.
redcap: The North travels the entire span of the country to bring food to the Easterners. Hmm, how caring.
The north can't even feed itself talk more feed Nigeria.
How wicked and hateful most northern leaders are towards the south, they would NEVER sell food to the south if they were no reaping 300 times more profit on the price of food they sell in Niger Republic or Chad than the exorbitant price they sell to southern nigerians. They sell their food produced through Federal Government agricultural interventions to the south and pocket the money. No questions asked!
Nigerian beef is the most expensive beef in the world simply because Fulanis have almost exclusive control of the livestock market in the country and fix terrible prices for a slice of beef.
Even their solid mineral- GOLD in Zamfara is secretly mined by individual Alhajis with ABSOLUTELY NOTHING paid into the federation account from Zamfara's gold mines!
The north can't even feed itself talk more feed Nigeria.
The worst part of their lies are that they used the money from the south to build countless dams and irrigation projects in the north. Yet, all the money derived from agriculture is simply pocketed by a few Alhaji politicians with absolutely NOTHING paid into the federation account!
Even their solid mineral- GOLD in Zamfara is secretly mined by individual Alhajis with ABSOLUTELY NOTHING paid into the federation account from Zamfara's gold mines!
of course they will burn the place to erase the rigging evidence even after they leave. The next place to burn is defence headquarters to erase proof of monies disbursed for defence that was pocketed.
Then they will burn the finance ministry to erase trace of money approved and disbursed
Buhari is the worst deceitful looter in the the history of Nigeria.
ezenwajosh: Do you know that Northern leaders are manipulating the psych of their people with the many gifts they offer them at the detriment of other regions.
The North have created local governments out of deserts and empty lands, and with it they have sustained their poor masses and stopped them from rising up against them.
Most Northerners are paid in their local government headquarters, because they planned it in such a way that few people will be under each local government, with enough money to go round. Most people in the north, once you give them food, they have no problem again.
The government of Buhari have thought the North that Terrorism can be a lucrative means of livelihood. We have seen Boko Haram members rehabilitated, paid and recruited into the Army. Fulani Herdsmen terrorists are pampered by the regime of Buhari. Bandits are allowed to be kidnapping people unhindered.
For the past 5 years, this APC government have been paying Northerners five thousand naira every month. During this coronavirus lockdown, they were paid twenty thousand naira each, leaving out Easterners.
Also, the truckloads of rice which Nigeria government seized from importers were shared only to the Northerners.
When the border was closed, Northerners kept flooding Northern Nigeria with foreign rice unperturbed through Niger Republic.
Even when the money is coming from the East, Fulani caliphate keep sharing it to their own people.
They have for more than 50 years raised a subdued masses, instead of a productive masses.
This will hurt them seriously in no distant time. The only thing helping them is one Nigeria. That is why the North can go to war to defend One Nigeria. The North is not yet ready for division. They don't have the resources to sustain their lavish lifestyle.
Some say Northerners are down to earth. It is a lie. The North is actually subdued. And since their leaders see to their welfare by stealing from Nigeria to placate them, they keep being loyal. They are constantly told how their leaders torture the East to make sure they get all that makes them happy. A typical Northerner will be more happier to be ruled by a cow, than be led by an Easterner. Northerners love their leaders not because they are doing well. They love them because they are keeping the East down and making Eastern leaders their slaves. It gladdens the heart of every Northerner, even the most uneducated amongst them.
The North is sitting on a time bomb. Destroy one Nigeria and the North will destroy itself. One Nigeria is the bomb detonator. Nothing will expose Northern Nigeria like the disintegration of Nigeria.
To exploit the northern masses, Northern leaders have purposely denied most of their people education. They have formed a religious mandatory Almajiri system that destroys young boys for their selfish religious and political gains. Millions of Almajiri boys can't read a single English word and many have become men and married multiple wives. Have you asked how these polygamous Northern men manage to take care of their family? The government takes care of them on their behalf. The local government inhabits little number of people, that there are lots of money to do this.
When the payment of Northerners by Northern Leaders is discussed, ignorant people will start asking what our own Governors are doing. Believe me, I am a huge and unapologetic critic of these Igbo Governors, but in this case I perfectly understand the game of the Northerners. The North considered the internal problems of the North when structuring Nigeria. In fact, to say Nigeria was structured to serve the interests of the North is a perfect statement. The North only had land mass from the beginning. Not the number of humans they lied to have through dubious Nigeria census. Though Northern population is rapidly on the rise; the reason being that the northern leadership controlled by the Fulani, opened the borders for their brothers across west Africa to invade Northern Nigeria and become indigenes. They also advised their people, both rich and poor to be marrying multiple wives. The North needs One Nigeria to be able to maintain their growing population. That is why the present APC government is paying their teaming population (Northerners) 5,000 Naira every month. This payment will not stop, else their youths revolts against them.
These things will hunt the North. There will be uprising once One Nigeria is buried. There will be no more stolen money from the East to satisfy their pauperized masses. That is why they are fighting and shouting that the unity of Nigeria is non-negotiable. As shameful as it is, they are ready to die for One Nigeria.
Today, things are changing rapidly. The inevitability of Nigeria division is dawning on the Northern Leaders. How to keep up paying their non productive masses is their utmost concern. One of the reasons why they now look so confused and won't stop looting the national resources recklessly
Copied* family writers*
Fulanis are a HUGE parasite siphoning and looting all resources of southern Nigeria for development of Fulani enclaves.
The earlier folks decide to confront and fight them for your freedom that they have brazenly taken, the better for Southern Nigeria.
Fulani women are like dogs on heat. Even the women in purdah don't wear pants and keep phucking anyhow without a condom. Without control of rampant unsafe sex in livestock and food markets, northern society is doomed with too many production of almajiris.
Basic123: Hausa Fulani woman is the deputy general of the United Nations we never hear noise.
INFERIORITY COMPLEX EVERYWHERE
LOL.... see aboki reasoning
Hausa/Fulani occupying governmental nominated positions orchestrated Nigeria's despotic federal government they dominate is now an achievement? A lobbied position by Nigerian government?
The issue is that NOT A SINGLE position based on COMPETENCE would you see FULANI person occupying anywhere in the world!
Blue3k2: GamalNasser aka FarahAideed aka SarkinYarki aka SalamRushdie is obviously Nigeria's Elon Musk. He's been making dozens of patent for decades in between his deranged rants online. Dont worry about the fact he can specifically tell you what the patents he's referring to. It really exists trust him. What kind of person would get online telling mumu lies like that?
We Nigerians should be proud that he's able to accomplish all this despite his mental illness. Congratulations GamalNasser, FarahAideed, SarkinYarki or what ever other moniker you have. You are truly an inspiration to us all.
raker300: Enugu, I city filled with life and peace known for its exquisite locations for serene relaxation in Nigeria and it’s educated and resilient population was ever growing..until
Biafran war...
Now the city has been abandoned by the country’s apex government be become a shadow of itself and eventually fade away..
But, No...
The people are not slacking off, the city isn’t dying nor is it becoming a dingy, shadow of its past glory.
The city is ever more growing..
God designed Nigeria to stand as a great tripod on three main pillars! Those pillars are known as its three main tribes.
Part of the reason why Nigeria has failed to stand as a great star is that they are so adamant on being callous to the Igbo pillar of Nigeria's tripod.
Thus, Nigeria has since failed to stand on just two pillars.
Today, it is too late to try fix Nigeria to become a nation again. The three original pillars MUST go with like minds and form their own nations.
It happened last year, the dishonest woman whose economic philosophy does not believe in Government handouts was just being the lousy human being she always has been, in trying to spite Nigeria to embrace a a model which she rejects she ended up disgracing herself as charlatan who spreads fake news out of spite like the likes of Reno the fool, Nnamdi cownu, Foulmouth kayode and et Al. The good thing is under PMB Nigeria had it first social security model in place and that has swung into action.[/s]

Ifeanyi uba do not ce 1 billion to spare currently.. Non of his business is in his hand. All wit Amcon.. It's not up to a year he became a senator so. Reason am
Peter Obi refuted his own too

Igbos have been in forefront of donating to the Janjaweeed federal government that will simply ignore igbo states to die like flies if they ever have an outbreak. The current FG will be overjoyed if a virus helps them to eradicate the hated igbos from Nigeria. Something they couldn't do with marginalization or military force.
Imagine that Buhari released N10 billion naira to an already rich state like Lagos to equip its isolation center, yet ignores Anambra to depend on paltry donations from individuals to equip its isolation centers.
The same way they ignored Rivers state appeal for help in setting up its isolation center, knowing the PH international airport could easily risk having expatriates from France and Italy living there.
Igbo People donating to the fantastically corrupt Fulani Federal Government instead of their cash strapped states need to have their heads examined!
All these cowardly Fulani soldiers only know how to terrorize UNARMED people. The same people are running away from small boys in Boko Haram killing them like flies everyday. But because Warri youths are not armed, they are threatening to r*ape their mothers and sisters.
It is time Southern Nigerians arm themselves and defend themselves against these vandals
Enugu State Government called out for ''putting lives at risk'' by demolishing houses amid Coronavirus outbreak
The Enugu State Government has been called out by some social media users for demolishing houses amid Coronavirus outbreak in the country.
Recall that in the last few days, some State Governments have issued a stay-at-home order restricting movement. The Enugu State Government have also shut down all educational institutions and directed all public officers/civil servants to work from their homes except those on essential services including health workers, Forest Guards and Neighbourhood Watch personnel.
In a state-wide broadcast, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi also banned all social and cultural gatherings in the state including marriages and burial ceremonies, masquerade festivals, drinking bars, night clubs and all group sporting and recreational activities.
The Enugu State Government has however been called out for the demolition exercise carried out in Asata community. It was also alleged that residents of the area were given less than 24-hour notice.
Nwada Oluchukwu wrote;
Today being 2-04- 20 has become a sad day for the residents of Asata, in Enugu State Pictures attached are ruins of people's PROPERTIES that has been demolished on the Governor's order Interviewed residents said they're were given less than 24hours notice.
Though the properties are located in a not so good area (sited around waterways/drained systems) but this is a very very wrong time to carry out such exercise to worsen it all without prior notice I totally condemn this barbaric and inhumane act, people have been mandated to sit at home in this pandemic period, where shall they now stay, these victims can't travel because state borders have been closed.
Children, elderlies, sick, pregnant women are now officially homeless all thanks to our Governor his Excellency Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi
SOMEONE SAID MOSTLY SHOPS ARE LOCATED THERE BUT HE THINKS SO BECAUSE OF HOW BAD IT LOOKS, SOME MIGHT BE SHOPS BUT PEOPLE SLEEP THERE AS A HOME. MY TAKE IS THAT THIS IS A VERY WRONG TIME TO CARRY THIS OUT! ENUGU STATE IS INDEED IN GOD'S HANDS I WEEP!!!
[/s]
Breaking the law and then whipping sentiment that elderly or children will be affected if action is taken to enforce the law is silly logic.
Even armed robbers will tell you that they took to armed robbery due to no jobs for them, and their need to cater for their elderly parents and children. Does that now justify armed robbery?
Our people like to build illegal structures all over the place. If Nigerians are so adamant on observing simple rules, any responsible leader has the difficult but necessary task of demolishing illegal structures.
I would only support those whose structures are demolished if they had proper approval to build it.
Aphrygian: you are wrong bro, fumigation with formalin or formaldehyde will kill both microbes and macrobes, even morigard,izal and some anticmicrobes can be used same for 90percent alcohol. the word fumigation comes from the use of fumes,it's just making a gaseous droplets of the chemical for easy dispersal.
Bros, I don't have time for pointless arguments. Keep deceiving yourselves that fumigation can kill viruses. Your problem is the poor educational system in Nigeria, so i wouldn't blame you. I don't think you even know the basic biological difference between unicellular and multicellular organisms talk more about which are killed through their spiracles via fumigation.
At least 40 - 60% ethanol is required to kill a virus and it isn't delivered via fumigation because alcohol vaporizes very quickly.
Lol....Fumigation is for disease vectors as arthropods and rodents.
Eradication through Sanitization is for bacteria and viruses.
COVID 19 is a VIRUS, so even if you kill all the flies, cockroaches and mosquitoes at the airport through fumigation, the virus is still there waiting for the next unfortunate human to touch anything.
Who did this to us? Where are our microbiologists and physicians in government to properly advise the dullard leader??
johnmartus: Name one thing that igbo has done to Nigeria. Only brainless and illiterate person can ask this question.
Igbos fought for Nigeria's independence and won it Igbos ceded power for a northern Prime Minister to keep the young nation united Igbos developed Nigeria's educational curriculum as well as human capital development Igbos helped Nigeria create a huge entrepreneurial base that is still cornerstone of the economy Igboland is base to 75% of the country's main resource - OIL
.... I can give you more examples to your moronic question abokii! In the end, Nigeria will collapse under the weight of its own injustice and unnecessary war against the Igbos.
Giving recovered loot to Buhari will result in looting of the recovered loot.
Looting of the recovered loot and the treasury is not just their stock in trade, .....................they will still borrow more money from China to loot.
RuudVanNisteroy: Buhari refused a court order several times to release Sowore, but is willing to hand over 100M to Bagudu.
The United States is opposing plans by the Nigerian Government to hand over about $100m stolen by late military Head of State, Sani Abacha, to Kebbi State governor, Abubakar Bagudu.
.....because Buhari is using fronts like Bagudu to steal money. it's all about collecting the money for himself using another man's hands
