Politics / Too Yoruba To Be Igbo, Too Igbo To Be Yoruba And The Issue With Lagos by chrisair101: 7:52pm On Mar 05, 2019 |
Elections are on and quite naturally here the tribal warlords are out, not like they are ever 'in' but because of the quadrennial exercise they are 'out out', #Thread For this lot, the most potent tool to play politics is not contesting for ideas or reeling out policies, plans, and intentions for which power is sought, it is to actually amplify tribal narratives. This tribal warlords come from all tribes in the land, From the majority and minority stock, from the 'victor' and 'vanquished' people's, from the 'literate', 'illiterate', 'greedy', and 'powerful' tribes. These warlords range from the belligerent, bellicose, combative ones to the presumably pacific, calm and non-violent ones I am Igbo, born and bred in Lagos and I obtained my university degree in Jos, Plateau state. I love Lagos and I adore the Jagaban of Borgu, for me he is the biggest political figure in southern Nigeria and I know his political family includes the Yoruba,Hausa,Igbo people, He has accommodated and nurtured the likes of Ben Akabueze and Joe Igbokwe and to mention but a few irrespective of their 'Igboness'. The problem for me right now is that for this particular elections in Jagaban's base in Lagos the hosting Yoruba and their Igbo guest (because in Nigeria you can be host and guest in your country depending on where you are). Some of us, our siblings and relatives are already caught and trapped in this ongoing battle simply because we were born and bred in Lagos. The elections has degenerated to a certain level The Yoruba needing to teach the Igbo that Lagos is theirs, and any attempt to deny this would lead to loss of properties and lives irrespective of your political school of thought but rather based on your 'Igboness', while my Igbo brothers have also resolved To prove to the Yoruba that indeed 'Lagos is a no man's land' whatever that means. In all these fever pitched battle cries for each others head the discourse for a better and prosperous state has been relegated to the background the very concept of us being 'Lagosians' is At least for now meaningless. This issue with Lagos is not a strictly Lagos debacle but a Nigerian one, I'd rather stick to Lagos, Lagos is no doubt beautiful and blessed, Lagos could be called 'Canaan' because it flows with milk and honey, Lagos is home for all but It's not 'A No Man's Land'. This elections should be about the candidates and their policies, plans and intentions, the call and resort to whipping up tribal sentiment is the easiest and yet the most dangerous campaign strategy Especially because it can lead to unimaginable chaos and conflagration. For the sake of some of us 'The My Mama Say I Be Ibo', you people should abeg 'CALM DOWN'. #End |
Politics / Re: Governor Udom Emmanuel's Intervention On Arochukwu (Abia state) - Obotme Road by chrisair101: 11:25am On Jan 09, 2019 |
Donmedra:My dear.. The state is not just cursed oo, it's under demonic attacks and satanic influence of people who have sworn to forever hold it in bondage.. If Ebonyi state that look up to Abia state can overtake it in a giffy, then u need no prophet to tell you Abia state is cursed. If u knw the amount of industries/companies that Aba and some part of Umuahia boost of, nd you now calculate the state budget annually, u will realize that the government have been siphoning the state revenue, disbursing it to the likes of ojo amadukwe, nwabara(former senate president) TA orji nd the rest of them and presenting useless figures just to give the ppl the impression the state is poor.. But we all knw the truth... One day, the God that answered Anambra state will answer for us because ryt now we are powerless... You vote, they will carefully and deliberately rig the election without fear, they will tell you.. Go to court.. You go to court, court will tell you, Electronic voters card is not recognized.. Case closed.. And the statuesque remains same.. Am angry ooooo.. Seeing energetic youth in aba working, striving without support from the government... Give me Abia state.. I will turn Aba to the Dubia of Nigeria in 4yrs... 3 Likes |

noobody:Bros.....i don't think that 2weeks or 3weeks is still feasible again...seems Alixpress are not serious anymore. Their negligence to delivery is becoming worrisome. seriously am not happy...its frustrating seeing people that you order before them feeling their fones, appreciating their buyers,appreasing the fone av longed waited to get. Its really frustrating... I could have just gotten myself RN4X equivalent in other brand here in Nigeria, instead of this High BP this fone is causing people . |
