Very insensitive and rubbish statement to make at this time from a supposed elder statesman.

He is always silent in the face of annihilation against his Jos people but always active to rush to Aso Rock to collect envelopes in order to sing their praise.

Though this is not a pleasant news at all as no genuine business ought have to go through these crises however, I like the fact that this is happening to all these big foreign companies operating in Nigeria.
Their home governments and diplomates were complicit in plunging Nigeria into this mess by their various political and economic interferences in the Nigerian system, dinning and whinnying with our very corrupt and compromised leaders.......recognizing election riggers and subtilty encouraging riggers because they are big names with corrupt connections to give them undue advantages in our nation.
Their govts thought they could eat their cakes and have it now God& nature has come for their interests in Nigeria.

Next time, they&their cover government officials should endeavour to know that elections have consequences.

We all saw how slot if them from Britain, US, France, India, China, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands etc were floricking with some certain incompetent and corruption election contestants during election even going far to invite and give them their national platform just to endorse the many election illegitimacies all because of evil strong hold d they hoped to have using willing tools in our political leaders.

Most Nations knew Peter Obi was the right candidate, they knew Igbos deserve that seat but out of sheer wickedness they looked the other way and even enabled injustice, now their companies and interests are under serious economic threat in Nigeria.

You can not throw monies at corrupt incompetent officials during elections, recognize them after hijacking the system and not reap from such evil seeds.

Hypocrites!
PoliticsRe: A Big Warning To Igbos by colonelwealth(m): 1:22am On Feb 21, 2024
SpecialAdviser:
Dear Igbo brothers,

With the harsh reality of hardship on ground coupled with fraudulent protests here and there, kindly have plan B on your mind. If the protest increases, they will come for your shops, they will come for your goods. They will loot your products on its way. They will most likely loot and rob you of your hard earned investment.

Please have a plan B. Save most your products at home and leave your shops lean. Just display few items. Again do not open shops on a day of protest. Most importantly send down some of your investments down east. Buy land in the east and build some back up property down there.

A WORD SHOULD BE ENOUGH FOR THE WISE.
💯% wise advice.
I endorse it.

You people disrespect Iwobi too much.
Anybody who cannot see how instrumental Iwobi has been in maintaining our midfield shouldn't be giving their opinions on the squad.
You people always see him as an easy target. You think the coach who made him a starter in almost every match doesn't know what he's doing?
The Yusuf you people have been calling for finally entered the game and delivered an unnecessary penalty to South Africa, nearly jeopardizing our chances at the finals. If that was Iwobi, you guys would have been calling him unprintable names.
"Iwobi is the reason Osimhen overworks", but the same Iwobi has directly granted Osimhen 2 key passes in this tournament, and Osimhen wasted them. If Osimhen was converting the easy chances, he wouldn't need to overwork.
True my guy.
They disrespect the guy too much..
Though he might not perform perfectly most times but that Iwobi is a silent midfield engine that makes the team tick......except for his sluggish play, he can create spectacular passes, attack and score outstanding goals on his good day.
We should accord him his own due respect and critise when necessary.

Is it going to be on the fact they came into this tournament dressed like escaped prisoners?

It definitely can't be Thomas because he didn't even come to tonight's partey.

If only they had brought on Inaki earlier, they might have knacked Mozambique.

Even with a Baba in their midfield, he couldn't use juju to foresee Mozambique's next passes and dictate the game's tempo.

Most of us knew from the get-go that they have nothing to offer and even advised Charlie to zero his mind but just like Thomas, they didn't believe and they didn’t Cedis coming.

Amartey you Charlie is highly disappointed at Daniel Amartey for not tightening their defense and shutting down Mozambique's attack just like Daniel shut a lion's mouth in their den.

It might surprise you to know that it was not even remotely because of my fetish for other men's wives or because I was interested in finding out if she had any underwear on, but simply because we had been told that she gave birth to a white baby for Jay Jay, and this very girl who was barely 7months old, was in the car with her that day.

The bank has a big hand in her death. The government need to wake up and set up an institution that caters to staff welfare. NLC only fights for government workers' minimum wage and their own pockets. We need a regulatory body where staff can report workplaces with bad working conditions. These banks give their marketers ridiculous targets yet no one is talking about it. Now someone has taken her life due to the pressure, things must not continue like this.
Very true.
The abuse Nigerian Workers go through especially in the private sector is mind boggling.

A lot of private sector enterprises &their management in Nigeria are wicked, manipulative and time wasters.

Alot of them hide under one connection or the other to perpetrate wickedness....as for the banks the give alot of unrealistic and unGodly targets to their workers especially casual staffs and marketers that is why I am not often moved by their different quotation of figures& capitalizations

Another set of wicked employers are those in the education sector....those ones have a special hell reserved for them.
The nursery, primary, secondary& tertiary institutions.
They are joy killers, time wasters, sadistic and cheap labour Marchants with sole intentions to exploit their staffs.

I will not forget to mention the factories( all these small&medium scale industries(especially Indian, Lebanese&Chinese companies)that pay per day wages and also their local construction companies& contractors counterparts......these are the headquarters of labour wickedness in Nigeria.

The Nigerian government/NLC/CSOs needs to establish a strong labour union body that will cover all this Non-government sectors to protect, defend and fight for their workers irrespective of the field of work.

These monsters needs to be check mated.

My brother, leave those ignorant and arrogant humans.
These Ikwerres(confused Bini wannabes) know the truth but they dwell in sponsored falsehood deliberately.

It is better not to engage them but to allow them gloat in their self inflicted mischief.
Becauses whenever you discuss based on facts with them, they tend to reason in funny dimensions with no bearing but noise.
They are very insecure with lots of complex issues, always trying to find their voices when it's Igbos even when it's nonserious friendly matter but loose their voices to other tribes that deals ruthlessly with them.

Anyways, all these are because the Igbos treat them like lost brothers with kid gloves.
You will never see an Igbo claiming to be Ikwerre but you will always see Ikwerres claiming to be Igbos when it suits them or need the Igbo platform to shine.
They claim Igbos when realities of their weakness faces them but when at a little comfort zone they will deny Igbos for a little piece of cheap bread.

Always in the act of denial.
That is why I don't take them serious as they are 2faced manipulators..... especially when their Elites claim Igbo...check it well, they need something.

They will deny anything for a cheap piece of insecure attention.
The annoying thing is that they have nothing of special value to offer the Igbos for all their noise .....absolutely nothing.

If you(Ikwerres) don't drop Igbo language, culture&names and start some of yours.....
Igbos & the rest of informed Nigerians&outsiders will keep draging you guys like small Tiger generator.

You're talking rubbish, because in Rivers state Ikwerre is easily the most prominent ethnicity amongst her peers.

In Nigeria where the Igbos had a headstart over the Yoruba & Hausa/Fulani, where are the Igbos to be found today. They have been relegated to the backwater of National politics.

If you think you can come into a thread about Rivers state and try to talk down Ikwerres, then you're just a clown, because the action of Lord Lugard in 1912, set Ikwerres on a pedestal. It gave Ikwerres a developmental headstart over others.

It is called Natural selection. cool
Stop ranting....you are disturbing the peace of Nairaland.
Let you Ikwerres pick your fight with Ijaws your competitors.

Leave Igbos and other tribes out of your troubles as they don't have your time.

Just so you know, till the world seizes to exist, the Igbos you mention everytime will always be ahead and important players in affairs of Nigeria and beyond.

But you see Ijaws, they have your time(Ikwerres) and every willing to deal with you(noisy Ikwerres)....let's not even add the Ogonis&Kalabaris, those ones won't tolerate your disturbances.

Note; I have no problem with good Ikwerres except the arrogant/noisy ones like some of those here on nairaland even though the best is to ignore them because most of them rant as they have always been willing tools who try to 'belong' whenever they see others banter Igbos forgetting that there are levels and a minor group must get to that certain level before they can join the big boys(tribes) to engage another major tribe in banters/ranting.

Political, historically, economicial, socially, educationally, scientifically and culturally...every wise.

Igbos abound in sensitive positions and hold critical national and large portfolios of government in every government including the inglorious Past administration of Buhari as well as administrations past pre&post independence.

That term Igboid was coined by a foreigner in University of Portharcourt few years ago, who was grouping languages that have affinity or common terms. This is normal worldwide.

She did not group ethnicity or tribes but languages.
Some people are now grouping people as their “Igboid tribes” that must be part of their breakaway country.

She never even mentioned ‘dialects’ in her work but some people began to use it to claim that certain tribes or ethnicities speak “their dialect” so must be part of them.
Liars.
The constant unnecessary arm measuring, challenge and assault you guys do to the Igbos are irritating.

Normally I do not engage myself with petty Rivers State Oil and Gas inspired Politics of ethnic Nationalities but my problem with you is that I rarely see you engaged the Ijaws when they term Kalabari, Ibani and Wakrike Ethnic Nationalities as Ijaw or Ijoid.

I never read where the OPs or proponents of Igboid world talk about succession here. I am not a proponent of Biafra and many people I know mention Ikwerre and other Igboid Ethnic nationalities in the context of Igbo unity just as the great Ijaw Nation is doing in most of our riverine areas.


As a self appointed defender of Rivers Ethnic Nationalities, I would want to see you rise up and critize Ijaws from Bayelsa and elsewhere equally as you do to Igbos from the South East region.


As I normally advise my friends and others, If you have problems with Ipob, go to their webpage and comfront them. Nairaland is for Nigerians and others to get unbiased and accurate information.

If you are not confortable with Igbos, then that is your cup of tea. Do not generalised. You are not Ikwerres spokesperson.

I know many Ikwerre people in my circle that are very happy to be called Igbos just as we have many Riverine Ethnic Nationalities folks that are happy to be called Ijaw. I also know many Ikwerres that claim to come from Bini same way some Riverine folks do not subscribe to being Ijaw.

So chill and stop going around cherry picking!

For your information, I am Riversman from Etchie Ethnic Nationality and a proud son of Igbo Nation.

That Jamesversion and his likes are chameleons....they with the help of history revisionist like them always like to twist facts to favour their narratives in public forums like this to decive the unsuspecting and the culible.

Etche, Ekpeye, Obigbo etc are not Ikwerre people nor anyways linked to them.

Some Ikwerre like him rejects being called Igboid while attempt to call others Ikwerreoid..? Isn't that hypocrisy?

Etche&Obigbo share common ancestorial linkage to Igbos in Imo&Abia than they with any Ikwerre in Rivers.

Besides, why did he drag Igbos into their matter with Ijaws?
They come alive whenever it's Igbos but if other tribes like Ijaw, Ibibio, Efiks or even Fulanis come for them....they suddenly become mute.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Emir expressed his concern on Saturday in Kano while addressing newsmen.

“This ugly trend must stop. We have to rise up against it. We will no longer condone a situation whereby our children are kidnapped, sold and their tribe and religion were changed.

“This illicit act must stop. We have to rise up to check the situation as it is going out of hand. The situation cannot stop itself, it is we that will make it stop. It happened few years ago and now it has happened again. Only God knows how many of our children had been kidnapped and sold,” he said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the Kano state Police Command on Dec. 27, 2023, said it had dismantled a human trafficking syndicate that specialised in abduction, buying and selling of minors.

The command added that nine suspects had been arrested from the syndicate, which was operating around Kano, Bauchi, Lagos, Delta, Anambra and Imo States.

It also rescued seven children, majority from Bauchi state, from the suspects.

In his remarks, the leader of Igbo community in Kano, Eze Ndigbo, Boniface Igbekwe, alao condemned the act and called on authorities to bring the perpetrators to book.

Represented by Prime Minister of the Igbo Community, Chief Nwaimo Efanyi, he said the Igbo community had received the news of the kidnapped children rescued by the police with shock and disbelief.

He said the entire Igbo community in Kano had dissociated themselves from the suspects and any kind of heinous acts committed in their name, stressing that they are always committed to live peacefully with one another.

“We condemned the act in its entirety in whatever guise and call for punishment on the perpetrators. We Igbo dissociate ourselves from this criminality. We call for peace with one another,” he stated.

This post, the poster, the news article and the newspaper oulet was made with offensive malicious and mischievous intent to slander and accuse the Igbos as usual.

Rubbish sensational post....I actually blame the Igbo leaders that entertain this nonsense.
When it comes to rubbish they will be quick to summon Igbo leaders but when it's something beneficial they will play dumb.

The guy LegendHero is a know bigot.

Anything to slander Igbos will be welcomed by people like him.
Why would an Igbo kidnap a northern to sell in the south? If not that the so called Emir is delusional.

Whenever it so stupid assumptions without credible proof.....they will try to slander and malign Igbos and when Igbos retaliate with fire they will be begin to shout foul.

This is a new year.....let everyone respect themselves and abstain from bigotry.

Chai...that Crazy Rich Asians movie...

I know the part that must have made him cry...the scene of the wedding. I cried watching that scene.

The part where that guy was whispering to his girl that he loved her (if you are a lover boy, you must definitely drop a tear in that scene)
That movie is one of my best movies.
It's a dope movie.

It is sad to observe that there a very few intelligent discussants and analysts on Nairaland these days.

What is wrong with obtaining degrees from these universities in these countries?

That these schools are in neighboring west African countries doesn't make them fake or substandard.

That some people were caught with fake certificates from there doesn't condemn the whole system of those countries.

Who has condemned the whole Nigerian university system because of LASU fake certificates syndicates last year & others all over the nation or the US university system because of Chicago state university with Tinubu.

If hypocrisy was a nation, it would be Nigeria &Nigerians.
Let's commend the journalist for doing a good job and request our government to eliminate the loop holes that breeds fake certificates and substandard institution from anywhere home and abroad.

Pls leave Ayra starr and other celebrities who have these degrees they are not your problem....not everybody must school in Nigeria or is this because we feel these countries are below us?

Scrutinize the quality and authenticity of the certificates, graduates and universities from these countries but don't bad mouth them.

There are lots of top quality graduates from these countries doing well in their respective fields in Nigeria and outside Nigeria

Mind you, the citizens of these countries attend these same universities and they run their respective nations as well as other citizens from other countries who attend these schools in these African countries as well, with no authenticity problems from their respective countries.....so why is Nigeria's case different?

These countries education board accredites their schools respectively as NUC does not have jurisdiction outside Nigeria however only the federal ministry of Education can regulate and asertain the authenticity of these universities and their certificates together with thesw countries education boards.

Yes, substandard universities and fake certificates should be kicked against by all but let's do it without victimizing the innocent genuine graduates from these countries.
After all there is also a large community of Nigerians on diaspora in these countries with children of university age who were born, bred and educated in these countries, so what will be there fate?

If the Nigerian education system was so good as we like to decieve ourselves and had the capacity to accommodate the thousands of students seeking admission, easy to get admissions into, without frequent strikes and corruption or our private universities cheaper, do you think so many Nigerians will be going outside to study?

If we must condemn all the universities from these neighboring African countries then let's also condemn universities all over the world like US, UK, France, Ukraine, Russia, China, S.A, Canada, Japan, Brazil etc that Nigerians go to study after all not all these countries are English speaking countries.....and it's not as if the countries above Nigeria even value our certificates or regard our universities and education system so why the noise?

We all know how bad that feels when advanced countries belittle our own products and system.
All over the world citizens of different countries study outside their own countries even in nations 'lower' than theirs in advancements and it's never a crime.

By the time the governments of these African countries reciprocate our behavior towards them then let's not complain of hatred from them.
We behave as if we don't have other foreign nationals studing in Nigeria too, what will happen then if their respective government decides to blacklist their certificates from Nigerian schools& our educational system because of our corrupt tendicies and strikes..?

It is a pity our government officials even the senior ones like the minister of Education, media and people can be myopic sometimes in reasoning.
Nobody seems to be asking the important questions or addressing the issue in a logical way.

That you know one or two bad eggs who went to these said schools in these African countries doesn't mean you should condemn all or the entire system....after all are there no bad eggs in our Nigerian educational system? and why should you always be knowing only the bad examples instead of the good ones....does it not say alot about you as a person?

That you are struggling to get a job or progress in life or have graduates from these countries doing better than you is not the faults of the many genius graduates from these countries but blame your leaders and seek personal improvements, create opportunities for yourself.....dont use your negative energy to destroy people's genuine investments on themselves or that of their parents......let us behave.

I just feel alot of this unverified annomisity towards graduates from these countries are based on sentiments and sometimes sponsored by other stake holders in the Nigerian educational system.

Let our government Collaborate with the governments of these countries to eliminate the substandard and fake fake institutions within their respective countries so that the genuine ones will not suffer a "mob action policy" from our government, institutions and employers.

I just hate nonsense!
