izonborn098:he could be a low budget cultist. Probably forced into it by marley and Sam Larry. |
Good . But does having a child for a man automatically translates to marriage or wife? I never attended mohbads wedding 💍💍 nor saw the invite .. She is young and could walk away with another man ,.. after all he probably hooked up with her in lekki on those numerous in-house hoelosho apps . All donations should go to his son . |
Good one .. I pray this succeeds. Every child deserves to be protected by the state |
Sad. That tribunal ruling infected me with malaria. A corrupt judiciary can trigger an act of God. God gets easily angry when humans that play his role on earth ,take bribes to thwart sound justice .. If those judges took bribe or are in an emotional alliance with the APC , mark my words , they may not see 2024.. |
Lovely |
inoki247:I have come to a conclusion that there is a secret code embedded in the yoruba culture that supports thuggery and ageberoism.. Because other touts across Nigeria get their inspiration from the SW thugs .. I noticed this when I drive pass Benin and onitcha |
Branco6:the man sef Na Alora |
Sad. The SW glorifies thuggery and thrives on propaganda . Even prime elitist secondary and primary school boarding houses that pay 7m naira as school fees per term is riddled with cultism and pornography.. No sane person should attempt to raise a child in the SW. My advice .. |
The SW is gone |
Hbd Remi |
MS247:I can help them remove it from the net |
dragunov:Fulani are not good at managing democracy. They prefer military rule |
Rivers people are not Igbo .. they're mostly criminal minded |
Any link to watch the match |
Joke taken too far . It is this judiciary and a corrupt police force that will destroy this democracy |
I lived in the Biafran enclave during the Nigerian civil war until our part of the world was liberated by Nigerian soldiers. The transistor radio was my inseparable companion as it was the companion of most of our people during that war. We needed to hear from the radio where we were in the shifting map of the war so that we would know where to run to next. But you could never be sure of the information you got from your radio because propaganda was an important part of the war. A lot of the information we got was simply passed from mouth to mouth and in the process the meat of the message may be mangled or messed up entirely. So information was one of the casualties of the war. But even after the end of the war we did not fully understand what went on at other theatres of the war. That is how the horrendous massacre of close to 1000 people at Asaba in Delta State, South South Nigeria remained unknown to most of us who were not close to the place of that pogrom. In the last few days I have visited a few bookshops looking for a book that has given life to that mass murder. The book titled, “The Asaba Massacre: Trauma, Memories and the Nigerian Civil War” is jointly authored by an anthropologist, Professor S. Elizabeth Bird and a historian, Professor Fraser M. Otlanelli, both of the University of South Florida, USA. It is a book of history, 50 year old history of something that happened which should not have happened and which could happen again if we do not learn the lessons that we need to learn. Here is the story. During the Nigerian civil war the 2nd Division of the Nigerian Army led by Lt. Col. Murtala Muhammed entered Asaba on October 4, 1967. Between October 4 and 6, there were reports that Nigerian soldiers had killed some men and boys based on the allegation that they were sympathetic to Biafran soldiers. In order to stop the killings the Asaba elders decided to embark on a rally on October 7 through the streets of Asaba in a show of solidarity with Nigerian soldiers. The parade was to terminate at a place called Ogbe-Osowa Square. They, men and women, were all dressed in white chanting “One Nigeria.” At the Square they were addressed by a certain Major Ibrahim Taiwo whose voice traded strings of malevolence. It was an aggressive machine gun speech in which he accused the people of hiding Biafran soldiers in their houses. As he spoke, according to eyewitnesses, his anger rose like an awakening giant. He threatened to kill all of them. In fulfillment of his threat the soldiers separated the men and boys from the women and girls. He ordered the soldiers in Hausa to take the boys and men in groups of 10 for slaughter. Dr. Ify Uraih, one of the survivors recalls that his elder brother who resisted joining the first group of 10 was immediately gunned down. Some others who tried to escape were similarly killed. Dr. Uraih was 15 years old then. His father Robert and his two brothers, Emma and Paul, were killed. Dr. Uraih managed to escape. He came back the next day with a wheelbarrow to pack the bodies of his father and two brothers for burial. The young man with granite strength wanted to avoid the possibility of their being buried in an unmarked mass grave. The killing reportedly lasted three days. Every family must have lost a son, a father, a brother, an uncle, a nephew. Every family must have left a widow or an orphan behind. Only the sick and aged who could not come out for the parade survived. The other survivors were those who had fled the city before the soldiers arrived. Fifty years later, the people of Asaba are flipping their memory file and recalling this sight from the deepest part of hell. As they rewind the tape the tears are rolling again but the people have done more than shed tears. They have a group called The Asaba October 7 Memorial Group led by Mr. Alban Ofili-Okonkwo. They had a series of events with the theme “Remembrance and Forgiveness.” Professor Wole Soyinka and Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah were the keynote speakers. At one of the events, Mr. Ofili-Okonkwo announced that a Maternity and School of Midwifery will be established at the place of the pogrom. It is to be named The Place of My Birth Hospital. As a hospital it will save lives and give birth to a new set of lives but the lives of those taken on October 7, 1967 are irrecoverable. The Asaba Massacre emphasizes the bestiality, the irrationality and the beastliness of war. In that exercise there was neither rhyme nor reason. Both the guilty and the guiltless were summarily condemned and summarily executed. War does not ever decide who is right. It only decides who is left. War almost always never kills those who start it. The Biafran war never killed Yakubu Gowon or Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu. They lived to tell the story of the war. Many others did not. Also, many soldiers who fight wars never truly know why they are fighting. They are simply told to fight and because they have sworn to fight, fight they must. William Lyon Phelps says that the “only war where the men knew what they were fighting for was the Trojan War: it was fought over a woman.”

You can call Tinubu all you want . But you see the matter of appointing Yoruba Yoruba, these Hausa Fulani politicians should just STFu |
