givedemwotowoto: Tinubu supporters will think this is video game.
They don't yet believe Tinubu is OTP, it doesn't seem real yet. Denial stage.
But the events of the coming months will help them accept reality.
Not gonna happen... Patapata Tinubu will solve it politically by meeting the demands of the terrorists.
These same protesters will start hailing him and the rest is history. Only death can stop Tinubu from his second tenure, and if you don't understand this now, then I know you're playing checkers in a chess game.
Nigeria belongs to Tinubu now and beyond 2031. Taking it from him should be the number one priority, and winning elections should come second.
No you can't take it away from him with the ballot or the courts.
These are some bad actions of the NSA boss Ribadu that are proven because he was caught in the act, proven, and became a scandal. Note that these are only the proven and scandalous ones. There are probably actions he's taken that didn't make it to the media.
1. Few weeks after he was made NSA boss, he was caught in a gathering smiling happily while a Muslim cleric was calling for violence on Christians. That cleric still walks the north freely till this day delivering his extremists sermons.
2. He was caught not only creating, but also arming Fulani militias with weapons more sophisticated than the ones the regular military man can be seen carrying. He claims the Fulani militia was created to protect victims of Fulani terrorism which is an irony. Because how can you arm a thief to protect me from himself, and refuse to arm me to protect myself from the thief. And when I arm myself, you do everything possible to disarm me and prosecute me for possession of illegal arms ?
3. He was caught not just defending but justifying the activities of terrorists and bandits, claiming "they are our brothers". Showing that the man who is supposed to protect us from elements like bandits and terrorists, actually has a soft spot for them and seeks to not act based on a so-called shared brotherhood.
Now the question one might ask is, are these not enough grounds to give him the sack? For a president that considers his administration serious about security as it affects the common man, and who has the constitutional powers to sack this scandalous, incompetent, and compromised NSA boss, why hasn't he done so?
It didn't take him this long to overhaul the security cabinet when his life was threatened by a failed coup. So why is he dragging his feet when it affects the common man?
Why must his personal interest come before the interest and lives of Nigerians?
aybabz101: You might not support armed militia, but the Nigerian state makes this scieneria a possibility...
the armed forces, the police, the DSS etc have all failed in their designated constitutional duties...
And please, Amotekun are restricted to only dane guns and not contemporary weapons........(think about that..a constitutionally formed regional security network though by the states)
And the office of the NSA have been reported to arm "Fulani forest gauards" with automatic rifles of which one was caught in Kwara performing heinous act......
If you are from the south...., please open your eyes and analyse the data in front of you...and stop these english and professionalism....
We are at war and you lot dont know it ....
please no more political correctness... lets empower our states as this is the only option for now..let the states take care of their local security architecture....
That NSA boss who armed Fulani militia with automatic weapons (and was exposed) is an appointee of your brother who is the president. Infact he is not just an appointee but also an ally.
Even after the expose, he is still occupying that sensitive position.
Your brother can easily sack that NSA if his intentions are pure. So stop talking as if you are handicapped and without options left.
Talk to your brother, my dear Abbas. See how much he rates you.
Plotinus: Hello guys, I bought the Airtel ZLT W154R PLUS (Airtel ODU) today, for 40,000 naira because I heard its unlimited. But I have an issue with the device. I stream videos in 4k and browse really fast. However, my download speed is terribly bad, as it download in kilobytes (50kb -300kb). How can browsing be so fast and download speed so slow?
So that you will not run them out of business because of a mere $29
dederocs: You can only record when the police stops you for search or interrogation, you can't just record police for no reason. The police is there doing a legitimate duty, for public safety, they are not your personal worker or property.
The joke is on those who genuinely have hope of a better Nigeria with people such as yourself as its national.
Richtaiwo: The IG appears to believe Nigerians will approach this policy with restraint and responsibility. The moment he publicly stated that citizens were free to record police officers on duty, I knew that abuse of the privilege was only a matter of time.
I would not be surprised if the policy is reversed soon. The fact that the IG had to make such a clarification suggests that recordings are already being repurposed for content creation. And, trust elements of lawlessness, this is just the beginning.
There is also a small but vocal segment of frustrated ragtags determined to test every limit of law and order, treating every freedom as an opportunity for mischief rather than responsibility. A quick glance at some of the reactions online, even on this thread will attest to this fact.
APC will not be in power forever o.
And even if so, it may not be who you like that will always be there. So let's be careful of what we are supporting.
This thing can boomerang on you o. And you will realize how powerless you are
newnigeriannew: The South West allowed a democratic process but the Eastern region did now allow room for such. That was why Boro later had to declare Niger delta republic in february 1966.
After the South West allowed the Mid-West to stand on their own it was still Biafra that did not like such and came and attacked the Mid-West just 4 years after for no reason.
Biafra didn't like Midwest and attacked it... Lolz
SMH. I think I've made my point by exposing you and your ilks, reason why you're beginning to sound like a drunk. And after this I may not respond to you any further.
Even awolowo was against the creation of the Midwest, and he fought against it.
I have mentioned prominent men who said "no we will no longer tolerate the atrocities meted on us by the west, and we want out"
Till today, you can't bring forth any prominent example of the so-called separatists of the old east.
Adaka boro was not a prominent person of the time, he wasn't even up to the level of Nnamdi kanu. He was more of a Simon ekpa. And he wanted out of Nigeria. Not separation for the eastern region,the way the Midwest did.
The western region remains the only region to have entertained and granted a plebiscite at their regional house in Ibadan for the seccesion of the minority provinces that will later become known as Midwestern Nigeria that is today Edo and Delta state.
It's also public knowledge that the motion was raised in Ibadan by a Yoruba man and the majority Yoruba house adopted it without debate.
After the conclusion of the referendum, it was still a Yoruba man at the Federal Parliament in Lagos that moved a motion for the Parliament to ratify the plebiscite and recognise the creation of Midwestern region.
The agitation to leave western Nigeria was started by the then Oba of Benin who for not wanting to be treated lower in the House of Chiefs began the agitation.
Note that western Nigeria was the only region to operate a bimecurial system with the House of Commons being reserved for elected members and the House of Chiefs (similar to the British House of Lords) that was reserved for first class traditional rulers. This house of chiefs served as the Senate .
Now let's go to both the north and eastern Nigeria.
The mantra "one north" was coined by the Sardunna to declare that the north will not be balkanized. This was due to the agitation of the now present middle belt aka Pagan Provinces to leave Northern Nigeria.
In your Eastern region, agitation to leave by the minorities was squashed by the Ibo majorirties almost immediately the region was created in 1951.
Western Cameroun opted to leave Eastern Nigeria citing severe marginalisation by the Ibo majority in Enugu regional house.
Their wish was granted by the British in 1960 before independence.
The minorities in Eastern Nigeria then began their clamour for their own separate region ; Calabar -Ogoja-Rivers region comprising today of present day Rivers, Bayelsa , Akwa Ibom and Cross Rivers.
Zik even warned his Ibo majority that any balkanization of the then eastern region by granting the wishes of the coastal minorities will see what is left of the Eastern region, the poorest in the federation and to that effect, the Ibo majority did everything to prevent minority MPs from even mentioning any talk of secession from the Eastern region.
The minorities then took their plight to the Federal Parliament in Lagos and secured the support of the north, western and newly created Midwestern Federal MPs to grant a plebiscite for the minorities .
This was in late1965 and the matter was rescheduled to the next year and placed as top priority in the docket of parliament to be addressed after the Christmas break
A few days before the federal house was to convene, you Ibos struck and dismantled regional govt, imposed yourselves as supreme leaders in a centrist system.
This is why the date Jan 15 is very important because the house was just days from reconvening.
One Adaka Boro knew what motivated the coup and he declared secession from Nigeria under Niger Delta Republic.
Zik ordered Ironsi to stomp out the rebellion which was outsourced to Ojukwu who went on an earth scorching mission pillaging minority communities . This forced Adara Boro to surrender to Ojukwu.
Boro was driven to Lagos in the boot of a salon car naked and only given a pair of jeans and no shirt when he was arraigned for high treason . His trial was accelerated and he was sentenced to death by hanging.
Meanwhile the bastards that carried out the coup were living comfortably in prison with their salaries still being paid and promotions even approved by Ironsi.
The rest is the real history you refuse to acknowledge.
Your people are well known for accusing others of what they are guilty of.
You opened your comment with "God almighty you can lie". Then went ahead to do just that.
So Yoruba people campaigned for the freedom of the Midwest... Wonderful.
I'm very certain you're of the camp that lie that Tinubu willingly nominated osibanjo for VP and stepped down for him.
I'm also certain you're one of those who lie that madam Tinubu the slave trader fought against slavery and slave trade.
Y'all would commit atrocities, then turn around to play hero when exposed.
With this submission of yours, you just rubbished the struggles of the following Midwest legends
Oba Akenzua II Chief Humphrey Omo-Osagie Chief Dennis Osadebay Chief Anthony Enahoro Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh
And many more.
You've tried to take away their struggle for their people, and what it means for those people and the generations after them, just because you want to whitewash a history stained with atrocities.
. The Midwest couldn't stomach your atrocities on them that they had to start protesting and campaigning vehemently to leave you less than 3 years after independence.
They finally got it in 1963. 3 years. Ordinary 3 years!!!
Yiu couldn't keep them for ordinary 3 years yet you point accusing fingers.
If the eastern minorities were oppressed so much as you claim, why didn't they borrow a leaf from the Midwest and leave too?
Instead they stuck with us through thick and thin. Braved the civil war with us, and finally, you had to come in and separate us with military force.
And that evil army of division was headed by no other than a man from the same region that oppressed the Midwest out of their region.
newnigeriannew: You are describing what you were doing in the Eastern Region that made Boro ask for the Niger Delta Republic, which was stopped by the SE leadership that was in power then.
Added: Mind you the West allowed the Mid-West to stand on their own, till Biafra came and attacked them for no reason.
Adaka boro is one man. The minorities of the old eastern region had their council which consisted of politicians, elites and traditional rulers of the time. They did not campaign extensively to leave the east.
That action happened in only one region of this country, and that was the west. They left And still, it hasn't stopped you from oppressing them even as of today.
Added: Mind you the West allowed the Mid-West to stand on their own, till Biafra came and attacked them for no reason.
The Midwest cried out to part ways from you people. The federal government then controlled by the north saw it as an opportunity to weaken awolowo who wasn't in good standing with them at the time.
You ""allowed"" them to stand on their own... See your mouth. one is allowed to fool himself tho. What I won't tolerate is lies and propaganda.
newnigeriannew: But you needed one Nigeria, when some parts of the South South were in the former eastern region who were being marginalised, because a South East man was in power then.
When South East were in power and Niger Delta wanted the Niger Delta republic as they were being marginalised by the south east, the South East were the ones that stopped them.
"before Ojuku a south east man declared the republic of biafra in may 1967 Isaac adaka boro an Ijaw man had already declared the Niger delta republic in february 1966. boro had formed the niger delta volunteer force an armed militia with members consisting mainly of his fellow ethnic group declared the niger delta republic on february 23 1966 and fought nigeria's federal forces for 12 days but they were eventually defeated and then jailed by the Ironsi a south east man in the federal military government [and Ojuku a south eastern governor] for treason"
But it was Gowon from Kanke Local Government Area in Plateau State that later set boro free and boro later became a major in the Nigeria army and helped to tame the Biafra army.
The South East started the civil war because they wanted to take the lands and oil of the Niger Delta and their sea ports from the people that own the Niger Delta, because the Europeans came and created Nigeria and put some parts of the Niger Delta in the SE then and the south east coup of 1967 made Ojukwu the military governor of the SE region.
There's only one region where the minorities campaigned extensively to leave and form its own region. And that region is the west.
You guys love accusing others of what you are guilty of.
The Midwest fought to part ways from you people because of your wickedness. That never happened in the old eastern region.
Adaka boro fought to leave Nigeria, not east. And he didn't recruit his soldiers overnight. It happened through years of northern oil domination of their land which is still ongoing today with connivance from your people.
Don't paint it like Ironsi came to power, and boom, he recruited fighters and want to leave due to oppression from a very new government. It takes time to recruit people who will put their lives on the line for a cause.
Even the old Midwest, you have installed iyaloja there, imposing your culture upon them with the small presidency you got. I mean, they have left you and your oppression, but you refuse to leave them and to stop oppressing them.
If you can do this now regardless of their opinion, only God knows how it used to be back then.
You accuse Igbo of trying to dominate, please remind us which ooni connived with the sultan of Sokoto to become permanent co-chair men of the Nigerian traditional rulers council.
The idea is while the sultan becomes the king of kings of the north, the ooni becomes the king of kings of the South.
Even as the plan got exposed and failed, it didn't stop the ooni from addressing himself as such.
And This is also something that happened recently. Now imagine how it used to be.
. Its a well known fact that the eastern government of the time were pro awolowo in the fight between him and akintola.
And the northern government of the time, including the central government of tafawa balewa were pro akintola, and being the power at the center, they connived, charged him for treason and locked him up in Calabar where his supporters won't reach him.
So awolowos wife being on the eastern government's payroll, which actually happened, is not as dramatic as Ojukwu jailbreaking awolowo out from federal prison.
And we all know that the civil war is all painted in glory in the east.
Racoon: Another solemn truth ever spoken.Nigerians were warned but parochial sentiments beclouded our sound sense of judgement.Today, the frightening reality is crystal clear.Nigeria is indeed sitting on a time bomb.A peaceful separation is far better than a inevitable war because “Unity without verity, is no better than conspiracy.” -John Trapp(English philosopher).
However, SWners like Bola Tinubu, Femi Fani-Kayode, Femi Adeshina MURIC, BMC zombies will still blindly defend these killers because as Mr lifeless asslickers they must just eat crumbs that fell from their slavemaster's table.
Racoon: Yeah! You were talking against the British govt because they refused to support the fraudulent election that want to bring a drug lord into power. After all your past epistles chronicling all the atrocities of the feudal power lords?
Guess you still remember that the fulanis that have & are still ravaging the SW that your people are fleeing to Benin Republic? "...In fact, if there are Nigerians that can be exonerated they are the people of the Southeast and South-south; but the North and the Southwest are responsible for our problems today under this regime. I said it right from the beginning that Buhari is not competent and therefore cannot lead.
Now, we are crying. It was our shortsightedness. People did not behave the way they are supposed to behaved when Buhari was looking for power...."
Christlike01: What happenned to the man in the video will happen to you, your entire family,and even that Peter of Psquare. Oro jade Ase gun— o dimule loni Eje Jesu şedidi e! You won't escape it!
Are you done shouting "go and protest in your region" with your other Christ moniker?
Greattha: Yes, some low i.q, inept buffoons said so first but I find your joke distasteful...
You don't have to stoop to their level...
We all know they have traded their senses for scraps but joking with a situation such as this, where babies have been kidnapped for weeks while the president who's supposed to give direct orders to get them out is speaking jargon is nothing funny tbh.
It could happen to anyone...then you won't see the need to joke.
If you like find it distasteful or disamalaful.
These people would spring out one south during Buhari era when they're feeling sidelined, only to turn back and slap our faces.
This is also a protest against their party and messiah Tinubu, and I will tell everyone the same thing they said last time such was ongoing... Go and protest in your state!
. If they are trying to organize protest, make who wan do protest go him state go do am o.
After all that's what his tribes people have been chanting. Don't involve us when e hot for una, and discard us when objectives achieved. Like una dey do with "one south"
Governors should secure court order limiting protests to one school field.
