Twins are still two different people, triplets are three different people, and so on

I couldn't place my hand on the ATF, but I don't think that would have been the reason why the D light is blinking. Like I chat with you now, it still blink and atimes it will stop on it own for days and other days it will start the blink again.
This is exactly how 95% of especially Honda and Acura transmissions come about, I am sure he put the wrong ATF, use your owner's manual to determine the correct ATF.

It's actually Amaechi's handwork. This present MEND is loyal to Amaechi. They were the thugs he used during the Rivers elections. He also used them to make a statement against Jonathan during the presidency electioneering period.

The present MEND has been politicised. They no long talk about full resource control and true FISCAL federalism. They have lost touch with the Niger Delta struggle and no longer command followership as before. NDA is the new group that is fast gaining popularity in the creeks. They (NDA) now speak for the Niger Delta people.
let them continue to deceive themselves

Please stop playing with semantics, minority in politics or demographics is used strictly in terms of numbers or population, it has nothing to do with ancestral lands. Minority leader in a legislative house does not mean someone without ancestral land, it simply means his party has less members in the house than the opposite party. Likewise a minority in a country simply means their population is minor compared to other demographic groups. American Indians are termed minority in the USA despite they being aboriginal to the land.

Now, tell me what political organization would allow someone from a minority tribe of say 15% of the population to become president of a country in which a particular tribe has 50% in a democracy, especially in Africa with high tribal and religious sentiments? Unless you are proposing some other form of government outside democracy.
Then how come did a black man become the US president, he presented himself, right? And ad far as I know blacks are minority in the US, have any of Indians presented himself as Obama did? no I mean tell me one person, I mean American Indians not the Hispanic community, you have to present your self first, BTW Obama's color did not matter, his origin did not matter, it's simply because of the fact the over there state of birth or residence is what they want to know. I remember when a Fulani man was mayor of Enugu, it may be a small thing, but when you are faithful in what is small you equally be faithful in what is great. So it is entirely possible, ie Botswana, 70% of the population is Tswana but have heard of any palaver because so and so person won the presidential election? What I am saying is if Nigerians don't want that then Biafra is inevitable.

Tell me one young player who was nurtured to greatness by Mourinho?
Clubs show interest in a lot of players during the transfer windows but they end up buying a few.
Van Gal is well known to have nurtured many young players to stardom so the talk of players like Rashford not seeing some actions does not hold water.
Mourinho, I insist, has a football philosophy that is inconsistent with that of Manchester United.
He should look elsewhere for a job.
You are not a man united fan, you are either a man city or a Chelsea weeping more than the bereaved, man united needs no surgery, only a change of style, even Paul Scholes said it. BTW what brought about the trouble with Chelsea? was it not because JM dropped the likes of John Terry for younger blood, then the semi old players lost respect for him because he no longer has his lieutenant to organise things like before.
You want us to continue with LVG so you will keep on kicking our as5. No no no

You lie or are ignorant. The three main parties were given the mandate to negotiate Nigeria's post independence constitution during the 1954 constitutional conference, the AG led by Awolowo and the NPC lead by Balewa proposed that the right of secession should be included in the constitution but NCNC lead by Zik vehemently opposed it and pushed for a tightly bound united / unitary structured constitution.



Whether you accept it or not Zik was instrumental to forcing a one Nigeria on us. And as you are aware, once a marriage takes place, divorce is often a very difficult and painful affair, even with a single couple.

I do not see the feasibility of a country where over 50% of the population will be one tribe, there cries of Marginalization would be 10 times what we have in Nigeria today. How will any other tribe win elective positions - especially the presidency.
Yes you are right that Zik was the one who brought this mess, the evidence being also that Nigeria would have gotten independence in 1957 but the north opposed it then zik said he would not allow independence if the north did not partake, them the independence was postponed till 1960, that action provided the Brits all they needed to do what they wanted.
As for a country where a tribe can be 50% population is entirely feasible, even with the minor tribes winning a presidential election, it all depends on the organization of the country, BTW you can not be termed minor when you are in your ancestral compound, it is impossible, but in Nigeria to show you how absurd this country is, it's the norm, a situation where your origin is more important than where you reside is a good recipe for chaos. Your place or residence should be first not place of origin for a country to be united.

ManU doesn't need this chatterbox who beats his chest all the time.
His bland style of football is an anathema to the football philosophy of Manchester United.
He seems to be aching for the job to prove to his previous employers that they were wrong in their decision to axe him. We don't need such a man who is propelled by a subtle " vengeance". This will make him shove aside the promising talents that were unearthed in the just concluded season.
If Van Gaal leaves, his successor must be a coach who aligns with ManU football traditions.
Mourinho is a good coach no doubt, but he isn't the best for ManU.
gibberish
modern football is different from 1980 football, young players are the life blood of football, the insinuation that JM does not like youn players is totally false, BTW I heard van gal was bidding for Aubameyang, Paul pogba, Thomas muller, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, What about them?, If not for injuries will The likes of Rashford be in the first team?

I think I can work with the above.

But it must be stressed that Zik appeared to be initially in support of Ojukwu, but switched sides when he saw that the British was backing Nigeria 100 percent while Ojukwu was not able to get any of the Caucasian powers to cancel out the British effect, Zik knew where it was all going to end , he is a selfish slut in that sense.

There are even some who believed that Zik served as a spy for the British against Biafra,too many sh*** passing around.

In the end Zik was a naive individual, speaking with the benefit of hindsight, that is.
We should not also overlook the fact that Zik contributed to putting up of Biafra, I also heard he composed the national hymn (not sure though) and contributed a lot of other things, and coveted power for himself but Ojukwu refused to grant him his wishes so he switched sides, he is just an As5 hole.

The British deserved it, they sponsored the Nigerians 100percent during the war, without the British unlimited heavy weapon supply,Gowon and his troops would have been decimated and annihilated by angry and patriotic Easterners.

Without the British, one Nigeria would had ceased existing in 1966, the North were even tired of one Nigeria and was screaming Araba( Division, secession) in the 1966 northern Riots and Easterners massacre. It was the British who convinced them to re evaluate their Araba stance and change it to one Nigeria, after showing them the rich potentials and Eastern oil wells and promised them 100 percent support to claim with. With their 40 % commission.

A worker is worthy of his wages. The British earned their stake in the Nigerian oil sector, it was won in the battle fronts, and can only be taken from them at the battle fronts.

While I agree with the assertion that the British still milk its Royal Niger Company, I'm interested in how he arrived at forty percent. We know shell has more influence in this oil thing down here but 40%, that's like slavery. I don't totally admire Mugabe. He also participated in ruining Zimbabwe.
It simply means you don't know Mugabe and what he stands for, he did not ruin Zimbabwe even one bit, the Brits are the ones that destroyed Zimbabwe, I love Mugabe with all my heart, the redistribution of land in Zimbabwe did not fail at all as was reported in the foreign media, even the BBC had to apologize for making such reports, I heard this one with my own ear from their world service.

cheesy Total, Elf, Texaco, Chevron, Mobil, AGIP/Eni, Schlumberger, CNOOC, Petrobras, and many more, are they all British?

BTW, they do same business in other oil producing countries -- this is business for chrissakes!

Oil prospecting and drilling is 'cash-risky' and capital intensive, might I tell you?

The first oil well discovered in Nigeria in 1908 in Araromi, in the Ilaje area of Ondo state, and later the one at Oloibiri was by the help of these same foreign companies you now castigate, when we didn't even know what's up.


These companies can drill, but must PASS THROUGH THE SYSTEM SET BY COLONIAL MASTERS, ie in Gabon, the colonial master is France, so Total being a French company gets the lion's share, it doesn't mean you will not find shell in Gabon, or chevron, or ExxonMobil etc, you must agree to their whims and caprices before you exploit anything. That is how shell gets the lions share in Nigar area

Lol. How's that his argument. He's not the Op. The op made mention of 40% while he's talking about the stake UK companies have here. The British are bunch of thieves who reaped and ripped States they colonized apart. Petroleum, natural gas? In insignificant amounts, Yes.

But he's argument is that the UK still control our resources through their companies here. How does the fact that they produce their own food or even any other thing for that matter destroy his argument? You think Sanusi Lamido Sanisu who talked about a signed document to make the north uneducated is dumb.

Control. If they had met a more intelligent north it would have been vice versa. Through their companies we still live in the days of the Royal Niger Company. Tell me why this can't be true or why you think they still don't rip us? I get his point but I don't agree with the forty percent or zero resources even though we know a lot of what they have today were from stolen resources.
Also why are they fighting Robert Mugabe so dirty they resorted to sabotaging the economy of the whole of Zimbabwe, well thank God they have lost Zimbabwe and they know that, When Donald trump said he will ban Muslims from entering the US the Brits were first and I believe the only Europeans to react by saying that they will ban or some other thing to DT, well it is their own cup of tea, I believe what the OP said 100%, why did they destroy the Oyo empire? they looted everything, and burnt the ones they could not, anyways that guy is a house niggar, no need argueing with him.

This administration has no choice but to negotiate with them because nigeria is already squatting and will go down on her belly if wisdom is not deployed.

I don't like to engage you because you're a troll. But for the records, Eastern Nigeria went to war with a stronger greater Nigeria. How silly.

The same is still going to occur very soon. One would have thought you'd have learnt from the mistakes of your fathers. Tick tock tick tock.
Stronger because the evil British empire flooded your boy scouts with ammunition while blocking that of Biafra, even the Soviets supplied you with jets and Egyptians gave you free but cowardly pilots, look, Nigeria will never have won if Biafra had gotten even 10% of what these useless countries supplied to you, Nigerian army has not won any war since its inception, if you doubt it then give me examples, I hope you are not stating Liberia or Sierra Leone because that was simply a peace keeping mission. In the beginning of the war before the evil British intervention Biafra won virtually every battle so much so that you Nigerians were forming new battalions every two months. Hahaahahahahaha
