Politics › Re: Restructuring: Kogi Yorubas Want Reunion With South West by coptic: 1:15am On Jul 10, 2017 |
Omofunaab2: But i still believe you could have told him to stop.. The dude already took his comments away from being personal, he was making his comments "on behalf" of Plateau indigenes thus the backlash from many of us here....
Many yorubas do advise their brothers to refrain from making unprovoked remarks... You ought to know that on nairaland, you can't get away with unprovoked comments and your tribe definitely suffers it the most.
Anyway, I'm also sorry for some of my remarks here targeted at the people of Plateau state... realjoker: I am also sorry for my negative remarks on the good people of Plateau, benue and Southern Kaduna and all the other people I have make negative remarks about, I regret my ill planned actions. I know Nowenuse will make a come back and he will be duly served. I knows him very well he loves arguing back and forth without passing any meaningful message. Thanks, guys. Personally, I don't see the point of these sort of arguments as they brew nothing but hate and vile words. All that's needed is for us to respect each other. Whether any place is Yoruba land or not is left for the inhabitants of those places to decide. And their decision must be respected. Igalas in as far as Gombe can decide to join the Yorubas if they so wish. Besides, of all the three major tribes, the Yorubas are the least susceptible to land grabbing tendencies. You won't see them claiming any lands as theirs. Instead, they leave it to the indigenes to decide, as is the case with this thread. I don't see Yorubas as having any expansionist agenda at all. And as for the strength of the hausas, it's all exagerated. Do they not bleed blood as well? We have to encourage peaceful coexistence and not force neutral people into throwing hate words. Thanks and peace! |

Funny enough, the present lands they occupy are about the only space they have got, as nobody sells them lands again in Jos ever since they were found out. |

Omofunaab2: I know you are from Plateau state, but have you made attempts to scold your fellow tribesman for many of his unguided utterances here? I have not. But that's largely because he's his own person. I can't tell him what to do or not. I for one have great respect and admiration for the Yoruba so much that I've been wrongly labelled as Yoruba on here. How then do you relate that? I have never had any issues with a Yoruba person nor has anyone around me. Should I then be made to suffer the same fate as one who may have personal issues with some? This is an isolated issue. Meanwhile, I apologize for the anger his comments might have stirred. We should all know better than to put everyone in small boxes. |

And on Hausa or Fulani not being able to move in some places in Jos is the same way you dare not move in Hausa or Fulani area, your city center inclusive. Countless of your local chiefs were butchered and 95% of your entire state turned to war zone what have you done about it rather than surrounding your ancestral land to the Hausa and Fulanis? even though I am against Hausa and Fulani actions on this. And you failed to mention that the little pseudo-peace you enjoy in Jos today is do to your state governor and people surrendering your ancestral lands to Hausa and Fulani people and you dare not visit those area. And on Saraki having a Fulani ancestry is one of the lies turned truth after being repeated over and over again. I am 99% sure you have never been to Ilorin before, face your war torn Jos and Plateau in general Ilorin is not under contention rather Plateau is. I don't like involving in these issues, but man, you are too ignorant for your own good. Jos and the entire Plateau is entirely in the hands of plateau people, so I don't get the contention you speak of. Your entire comment makes a mockery of the little education you have. |

The local politicians know what dey did to Jonathan in 2015 and they know SE & SS feel offended. They also know the state of the country vis a vis Buhari's state of health. No one can say of a truth that Buhari will complete his presidency and they are afraid that should Osibanjo take a shot at the presidency, it will be difficult if the South is united with Federal might. So, the local politicians hired crowd to welcome him so they can draw him closer and assuage his feelings of political loss. They want him to feel loved and hopefully campaign for their candidate. Should that happen, they will be the one to first come out and say we determine the future of the country. We determine who leads this country.

Deedeedee3: Diversity is not our strength. In fact, diversity is our weakness! This is the lie they have been holding for 60 years. From generation to generation. We are not compatible and we must accept that and stop deceiving ourselves. Diversity is a strength everywhere, whether in the workplace or societal settings. A heterogeneous group is better at handling a range of complex challenges than a homogeneous one is. Our larger diversity of backgrounds, skills, histories, and talents make us better equipped to deal with difficult and unpredictable problems. For instance, the Yorubas are good at education, technology, finance and entertainment. The Igbos are good at business and football. The middlebelt is good at farming. The Fulanis are good at cattle rearing. Not forgetting the mineral deposits in the Niger Delta and their educational levels. The Hausas are good at trading and traditional medicine. That's something. On the other hand, a homogeneous group is similar in a lot of ways. So you often find that they largely tend to have similar strengths and weaknesses. Look at America and you would see the potentials of a diverse group. It's just that in Nigeria, we have failed to realise even the smallest of our promise. |

I'm quite surprised that we have endured so much. In other climes, it's enough reason for everyone to go their separate ways. Those herders must be cut to size. |

Well, one Nigeria for me has always been a dream.
However, one section of the country killing fellow countrymen in the name of religion, as a conquest, and for whatever reason is a threat to that.
In the middle belt for one, it is either Nigeria tackles the Fulani herdsmen brouhaha, or the people seek a country of their own where they can promulgate their own laws by which every Fulani person MUST abide.
I'd rather live in my own small space and be at peace than be in an almost 1m square km of land area and still feel threatened in my own backyard.
It's not so hard to live in peace with one another. But when religion ranks above all else - including human life - then there's bound to be a problem.
Everyone must be respected and made to feel a part. |
Politics › Nigeria Needs Mindset Change, Not Restructuring – Obasanjo by coptic(op): 1:06am On Jul 08, 2017 |
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Friday disagreed with those calling for the restructuring of Nigeria, saying the same social crises bedeviling the country would persist in a restructured country associated with injustice, impunity and bad governance. Obasanjo, who was guest of the Chairman of Lee Engineering and Construction Company Limited, Chief Leemon Ikpea, spoke at the palace of the Olu of Warri, Ogiame Ikenwoli, in Warri. The ex- President said he sees nothing wrong with a united Nigeria. Reacting to a speech delivered on behalf of the monarch by Chief Brown Mene, during the reception organized in his honour, Obasanjo commended the Itsekiri people for their perseverance and decision to stand against any divisive agitation, despite their complaints against marginalisation and demand for better treatment and equity. He restated his believe that the country’s problems could be resolved through dialogue and negotiations and not through secession. Obasanjo said: “I believe that we can solve all our problems through dialogue, engagement, discussion and conversation. As you rightly remarked, I participated in the civil war and I said never again will I participate in any civil war again in my life. “It was gruesome, it was destructive and it was deadly. The people who are now clamouring for whatever they are clamouring for don’t even know what war means. They don’t. Anybody who has seen the devastation of war, the destruction of war and the mindlessness of war will never want to see a war again and may we never have another war again. “The answer to most of our problems is mindset change and change of mentally. If we need any restructuring, it is the restructuring of our mindset and mentality. How will anybody in his right senses believe separation is the way out? “We have passed that stage. We have problems, there are many ways we can solve them. It is our diversity that makes us a great country. I won’t want a Nigeria where we dance same juju, or wear same attire. Our strength is in our diversity. “Some progress is being made in spite of our difficulties and problems, we need to make greater progress than we have made before. If we do that we’ll have good governance, there’ll be no impunity, everybody will have a sense of belonging and a stake in this project called Nigeria. Nothing is wrong with Nigeria, rather a lot is wrong with Nigerians. We need to correct what is wrong with Nigerians. Some of us have to speak up because if things are wrong and you don’t speak up, then you have become an accomplice. “Dismemberment of Nigeria is not good enough. Harmony and cohesion in Nigeria is what we should substitute for dismemberment. Inequity, injustice or unfairness are not good enough, we should substitute them with equity, fairness, good government and lack of impunity.” http://thenationonlineng.net/nigeria-needs-mindset-change-not-restructuring-obasanjo/ |

NeeKlaus: Most of you criticize Glo but you just have to admit, they are the GrandMasters of Data in Nigeria.
MTN double charges your data consumption, same with Airtel. That's why they run down so fast. And I am saying this from experience because I have used all three networks to subscribe.
If you need better network coverage with your Glo, go get a Glo 4G sim. It's better than the conventional one. MTN does not double charge. I use the same 5k for 10 gig sub and it lasts like it should. Sometimes it lasts me even up to a month. And yes, I'm a heavy data user. Plus, I monitor my data consumption. Case in point, the pic below is a stat of the amount of data used today and it corresponds with my data volume.
