It beats my imagination how some people reason. How on earth can people think with such a shallow mind? So Buhari will turn all Christians to Muslim because he is a President. These guys na wawo.

irunooboo:
I thinks it's time for the national assembly to ammend the constitution and declare seccession an act of treason punishable by firing squad Any one supporting biafra should be sentenced to death or fed to lions. This will gradually kill the evil ideology called Biafra. We hate biafra and it shall never come. The buratai military should invade the east and do the needful

Ooni:
Ibos always brave to speak out against fulani atrocities...while we yorubas will wait for them fulanis to apologise for killing our helpless people in broad day light after which we will continue our hosting career.

Shame on we oodua

slyng:
just telling u people to stop being a tribal bigot. Things happen everywhere

ibedun:
Dangling unclad?

Yoruba land is littered with ancient cities and culture, tradition and governance going back centuries. Point to one ancient Igbo city or Kingdom?

Village dwellers making niose.

slyng:
see ur mouth ... Na by tribe? U know how many married women i bleep for anambra during nysc? They even give me tubers of yam and other foodstuffs for a job well-done

bittertruthz:
you cant bully govt. to get appointment....................... Its natural, Parents dont give good things to a rebellious child. If you need something from your parents, you must be submissive and respect them.

You dont expect Buhari to give appointments to igbos just because they are stubborn. nobody does that.

BodyKiss:
Honey, don't waste your lemon on those set of people.

People like you by now are rushing to resume in one of my SMEs

I do not understand your English most of the time but anyone who follows this thread will see I have posted several times and that is because the subject is dear to my heart. Anyone would see that I have championed the importance of SMEs such as the the Fulani Herdsman so where you get your ridiculous notion that I am trying to ridicule them is a reflection of your state of mind>
You made the typical vainglorious ,chest beating claim about Anambra and Nnewi and that is ,as far as I am concerned the only thing I have to discuss with you . Can you substantiate that absurd claim?

aribisala0:
You are not doing it for me.YOU MADE THE CLAIM.

HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF SMES in Nigeria is in NNEWI

That is what YOU SAID

as an alleged MSC holder you must understand the aphorism

ei incumbit probatio qui dicit non qui negat

It is incumbent on he who asserts a thing to prove it not on he who disputes to disprove.

If you said there is a high concentration of SMEs in Anambra or Nnewi there would be no argument but when you say HIGHEST then you place a burden of proof on YOURSELF.

It was an empty ,meaningless and boastful assertion

aribisala0:
How did I ridicule Fulani? Actually I agree with everything you say about the importance of SMEs so quit the blackmail and answer the issue. THE ONLY THING I AM INTERESTED in is your claim about Nnewi and Anambra so please stop the appeal to sentiment as a way of avoiding that. As an "Msc" you must know the importance of substantiating claims. So STOP DIGRESSING and provide a SOURCE for your claim that NNEWI has the highest concentration of SMEs

Chijosky:
haha laughing @the Igbo speaking here let me quickly add mine.. ndi ofe mmanu ntoor unu agaghi aghota asusu ana asu eba

aribisala0:
An MsC graduate who cannot spell GRAMMAR. You are an embarrassment. You certainly do not talk as if you have WAEC. Shame!!

Listen to the rubbish you are writing : What I have in mind is "starch office person" what incoherent nonsense. I asked you about your Nnewi claim. So stop digressing. Every time business discussion comes up instead of discussing intelligently you must always contrive a way to assert your delusional superiority and when called out you resort to breezy bluster . What does starch office peson have to do with the nonsense you wrote about Anambra and Nnewi

aribisala0:
I am not talking about who is richer or not .This is not an OMATA meeting . This is supposed to be an intellectual debate so try and contribute in an appropriate manner. You made a claim which I find strange and am seeking substantiation or corroboration.If you cannot provide this just admit it and spare me the vainglorious grandstanding

aribisala0:
It is only illiterates that make up facts in their bedrooms. If it is a fact let us examine it scientifically. Y You do not bulldoze facts into people's head. You say it is YOUR State fine!! Any other joker can come and say the same thing about their state. Just like when two people contest an election anyone can declare their selves the winner. That is not the way of educated people. If Anamba has the highest who is second and third and when was this measured?

We know for a fact that 25% of the cars registered in Nigeria are in Lagos .How do we know this? The FRSC commission says so. To my mind every car dealership is an SME and generally they are SMEs. How many petrol stations are in your Anambra state? How many hairdressers, tailors hospitals etc How many weddings take place in Anambra every week. How many phone subscribers are in Anambra?
Yet you expect us to swallow your nonsense that Anambra has the highest number of SMEs. Sure you want to believe that because it makes yo. u feel good but it does not change anything.
You are correct I am "blowing grammar" This place is not for illiterates.M ftaybe you want to go and open your shop?

The Minister of Transport, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, who is known for his more than stellar reputation to stir controversies and spill vitriols is on the news again, yet for another wrong reason.

The Minister who is in Rivers State ahead of the rerun elections scheduled to be held on Saturday, March 19, 2016, had a complete meltdown, nearly lost his mind and walked off mid-broadcast during an interview at Love FM in the River’s State capital of Port-Harcourt.

Amaechi had said “I think Wike should resign because he has failed Rivers state. The insecurity in the state is alarming.”

Responding, the presenter said “Very interesting, Hon. Minister that you are calling for the resignation of Governor Wike. Would you also call for the resignation of President Buhari, since we all know that the security situation in the country has only got worse since he assumed office?”

The question posed by the presenter appears to have ridiculed Mr. Amaechi’s argument that Gov. Wike should resign, as it seemed to have either struck a chord or exposed Amaechi hypocritical dispositions on matters concerning his Governor and the President.

Shocked by the boldness of the presenter, Amaechi, lashed back at her for asking such a question, describing the question as “stupid”.

He defended the All Progressive Congress (APC)-led government, by alleging that the security situation in the country has not gone worse, adding that he was on the platform to discuss Rivers state and nothing more.

“If you don’t have any other question to ask me, I get out of here. What kind of stupid question is that? Who told you that the security situation has gone worse in Nigeria? I am here to discuss Rivers state,” he said.

The presenter quickly responded by stating that it was only a simple question.

She said, “…. you just called for the resignation of…”

Before she was done speaking, Amaechi interjected her saying, “Just shut up …..”

The horrified presenter later apologized to listeners for the minister’s crude behavior.

Mr. Amaechi seemed to be having excruciating political moment since the Supreme court affirmed the election of political arch-rival, Barr. Nyesom Wike as Governor of River’s State.

The former Rivers Governor has been going from one media house to the other throwing tantrums and making provocative remarks about Gov. Nyesom Wike and his associates, turning himself into an object of derision.

Mr. Amaechi’s remarkable ignorance about national affairs always gets him into trouble. And every time he tries to reassure, he digs the hole deeper.

Reacting, a public affairs commentator, Mr. Jeff Ossai said: “Amaechi is a very bitter man, and this is the very brand of bitterness that has led many politician into the abyss.”

Another commentator who spoke to THE WHISTLER Mr. Emeka Omuorah wondered why Buhari with all his goodwill before the election, trusted a man like Amaechi with a cabinet position, he said: “Why, at a moment when Nigeria desperately needs it’s best hands, would Buhari recruit the clowns?”

Bekwarra:
EVERYONE should be familiar with Donald Trump, the United States of America presidential aspirant on the platform of the conservative Republican Party. He is rabidly racist, irascible, anarchist, amoral, voluble, loquacious, xenophobic, isolationist, and protectionist – name it! He sounds every bit irrational, violent, and dangerous. His hatred for immigrants – Blacks especially – knows no bound. To be sure, Trump wouldn’t be the first such hate- peddling presidential aspirant in the history of the United States; problem, however, is, this one appears a very serious aspirant; he seems a likely winner of the Republican ticket. The who’s who in his party has endorsed him and the voters in the ongoing party primaries are flocking unto him.

He has trounced hitherto promising challengers and the gap between him and the others keeps widening primary after primary. Soon, he could reach the threshold necessary for him to be declared the undisputed winner of the Republican ticket – and he would be only one step away from the White House – the world’s most powerful office.

As it is today, the only person capable of stopping
Trump is the Democratic Party presidential aspirant, Mrs. Hillary Clinton. Former First Lady to two-term ex-President Bill Clinton, former Democratic party presidential aspirant (challenging Barak Obama and giving him a run for his money); former Secretary of State in Barak Obama’s cabinet and Senator, Hillary aims to make history as the first woman president of the United States. If she is elected, the Clintons will also make history as the first couple in the country’s history to both occupy the White House as president.

She has practically outpaced other challengers for
the Democratic Party’s ticket and barring any upset,
should soon wrap up the contest. Is she to be
preferred to Trump? Many will say “yes” but I have
read reports about her being an Establishment
person whereas even in her own party, the chant is
for change from the Washington culture. She is said
to be far right of the Centre; not a friend of the poor; not passionate about the issues that concern the poor and if she wins, is likely to serve more of the same menu that Americans across party divide are fed up with.

Americans need CHANGE. The conservatives need
change. They want somebody conservative enough to implement real conservative policies that will make no pretence at pandering to populist ranting. Trump appears to fit the bill. On the Democrats’ side, the people, especially the young, are also clamouring for change. Senator Bernie Sanders best approximates that change but he may not win the ticket. Clinton is not trusted even by the pro-Left of her own party who sees her as pro-Establishment and pro-Wall Street. This is why many are afraid that in the event of Trump winning and Sanders losing, a chunk of pro-CHANGE Democrats may defect to Trump.
Our own Reuben Abati described Trump as “snarling insurgentand nativist” and the possibility of his becoming the U.S. president as “frightening prospect.” Abati adds: “(Trump) has said all the worst things that should never be uttered by anyone seeking to lead a responsible and diverse nation. His campaign has been marked by insults, anger, put downs, bully tactics, rants, and unapologetic immaturity...He recommends torture and the killing of the families of terrorists. He has been endorsed by white supremacists and he doesn’t quite seem to mind being labelled a racist. He threatens violence and on one occasion almost punched a protester in the face.

He even got into an altercation with the Pope. He
wants to barricade the American South border and
build a wall to shut out Mexico because, according to him, the Mexicans who cross the border into
America are ‘rapists’. And when that wall is built, he
insists Mexico must pick the bill. He doesn’t want
Muslims inside America either, and he has dismissed Africans as unwanted and Nigerians as a problem.”

The hysteria which has followed Trump is
understandable. Now, hear what he said that has
frightened everyone “We need to get the Africans out (of America). Not the blacks (African-Americans); the Africans, especially the Nigerians. They are everywhere. I went for a rally in Alaska and met just one African in the entire state. Where was he from? Nigeria! He’s in Alaska taking our jobs. They are in Houston taking our jobs. Why? Why can’t they stay in their own country? Why? I’ll tell you why: Becausethey are corrupt. Their governments are so corrupt they rob the people blind and bring it all here to spend. And their people run away and come here and take our jobs! We can’t have that! If I become president, we’ll send them all home. We’ll build a wall at the Atlantic shore. Then maybe we’ll re-colonise them because obviously they did not learn a damn thing from the British.”

Now, don’t blow your top yet. Let’s overlook the
insults but do contents analysis of what Trump said
about us. Truth, they say, is bitter. Is it not true that
Nigerians are everywhere? We often cite this as
evidence of our industry. Had Trump gone a step
further to find out the tribe of the Nigerian he met in Alaska, he might have found out his is Igbo! Don’t you think so? But truth is that where countries are faced with problems of massive unemployment, the first scapegoats are foreigners. Trump may have been crude in his choice of words but repatriation of foreigners, especially illegal immigrants, is
worldwide practice. We ourselves have sent
Ghanaians and other Africans out of this country.
Other African countries such as Ghana, Libya, and
South Africa have done a similar thing to us. Are our governments not corrupt? Of course they are! Have our so-called leaders not stolen us blind? Of course they have! Do they not siphon the loot abroad while we suffer at home for basic amenities that such stolen money could have provided for us many times over? Of course that is the case! Is there not a brain drain from here to the developed countries? Of course there is! Are our people not running away from hardship here? Of course they are! And are they not taking up jobs in other lands that the citizens would, ordinarily, have got? That, of course, is the fact! But, again, this is the standard practice all over the world. There are, perhaps, more Americans working abroad than foreigners working in America.

Trumps’ tirade against Muslims is no less acerbic, yet with its own “justification”. We must note that 9\11 continues to haunt the Americans; not to talk of the ISIS, Boko Haram , al-Qaeda, al-Shabbab, Mali, Libya, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, to mention but a few. It is trite, though, that the crimes of a few should not be stamped on everyone, especially when it can be argued that America’s foreign policy cannot be divorced from the terror-war in many parts of the world. Islamic leaders have a lot of image-cleansing to do all the same. Incendiary statements by Muslims leaders portray the faith in bad light. The mindless bloodletting everywhere in the name of Islam does not help the image of Muslims. We have had our own nasty experience here in Nigeria; the Mile 12, Lagos mindless killings, for instance. Read Remi Fani-Kayode’s “Sons of Futa Jalon” and you are bound to recoil in horror. In the last few weeks, the Ese Oruru saga has not been good Public Relations for Islam.

Newspaper reports are to the effect that there are
many other Ese Orurus that the media have started
to champion their cause for freedom and justice.
Other people confront their problems but we run
away from ours. Is that not why our best brains have left the shores of this country? Many of the lecturers who taught me at Ife, who made that campus tick, are out of the country. I will be surprised if you find

White lecturers on our campuses again. In those
days many of them taught me at Ife. When I heard
stories of Nigerian medical doctors who ran away to the U.S. to try to become a nurse, I wept. I
understand one fellow wrote the qualifying exams
several times but failed. He was almost giving up
when, like our own President Muhammadu Buhari,
he was prevailed upon to try one more time – and
this time, he passed! Tell me, if others behave like us, who will create the Eldorado that we take pleasure in running to? We love finished products; we loathe finishing the products ourselves. Even to grow coaches at home, we cannot; we would rather import them. Buhari said we import from rice to tooth pick – and he is damn right. We hate rules. I mean here in the country – but we conform abroad. The car crash that killed a Minister, his wife and son turned out damning revelations of rules broken. It was impunity upon impunity. Yet, the Presidency rushed to compensate such infractions with the award of scholarships! When we should all have buried our heads in shame! If gold rusts, what will silver do?

Send them home, Trump, send them home! Let our
universities bubble again with first-class academics.
If all those who brain-drained into the U.S. alone are sent back by Trump, we shall have our hospitals
brimming with first-class professionals. And we shall learn to develop inwardly. Prof. Chike Obi said long ago that unless we Blacks make contributions to science and technology\inventions, the Whites will never accept us as their equals. That is a fact. The best that we have notched up is Nobel Peace prize and Nobel Prize in Literature. Can Leopold Sedar Senghor then be right when the father of Negritude said: “Reason is Hellenic (white) while emotion is African (black)”? How will Donald Trump not trump us, so to say? Whether abroad or at home, have we behaved properly to others and to ourselves? The stirring but shrill voice of Okot p’Bitek, in Song of Ochol, pierces the wind again as he moans: “Mother, why, why was I born black?”

Yesterday I broke the news that Peter Okoye of Psquare has finally moved on with his career as a SOLO artiste.

He’s said he doesn’t want his elder brother, Jude Okoye as their manager anymore and failure to amicably resolve the dispute has led him on to becoming a SOLO act.

He announced today that he has changed his management.Now known as addressed as Mr P, let’s introduce you to his new manager, Olatunde Micheals.

Olatunde has been a close friend of the Okoye brothers for a long time and he’s well known in the entertainment industry as well. Before taking up the full time job as Peter Okoye’s manager, he’s been with him for years. He’s currently the Managing Director of Playcenter Nigeria.

He once worked as Head of Channel,Soundcity in 2004. He’s also worked as a media and event consultant for the D'banj-led DKM media as well as Station Manager, Trace TV Nigeria.
