PoliticsRe: FYI: Do You Know That States Gets 100% Of Personal Tax & 85% Of VAT? by Curlieweed: 10:20pm On Aug 08, 2017
pazienza:
I hate stupid people.

I had been played by a Yoruba man in Ondo before, I worked for him, and he refused to pay me, not just only me, but the other workers who worked for him, they were Yorubas as well, meanwhile this man was busy spending our money on frivolities and his personal pleasures.

Have you heard about Oyeanusi, Dammy crane? That's what I'm talking about. They do all manner of things to make money. A suspected drug baron is their political leader for crying out loud.
Have you ever heard them come online to cry about that? No! Because wisdom demands so.
Ikpo akwa gi nkilika, akpatobi enwele ya mee rag.
Stop being stupid, it doesn't look good on you.
The word "wayo" is not an Igbo word.



2. You can be from the moon if you like, no one cares. I have friends from Oguta, Izombe and Awa in Oguta LGA of imo, I have been to Izombe before, they don't deny their Igbo identity.
I am a member of Ohaji/Egbema facebook page and I do read proceedings there, they are Proud Igbo people.
Only you know the trash you are talking about.

Yorubas in Kwara are not really interested in joining those in SW, the likes of Saraki are claiming Fulani descent. They are denying Yorubas as well.

Nigeria never worked in the past, it cost us 3million souls and continue to cost us more, it is not currently working , and it won't work in the future.

Igbos don't love themselves you say, yet Nigerians accuse Igbos of tribalism, of loving ourselves only. Okonjo was accused of running an Igbo agenda, Rose Uzoma was sacked for allegedly filling her ministry with Igbos, Stella was accused of doing the same in Aviation industry, so much for a group of people that hate themselves.
It's only amongst the Igbo that once one person is allowed to settle in a place, he would go home and bring more of his people to exploit the opportunities in his new found environment. He would go to village and take up a boy from poor background and make a rich man out of him in few years time.
Today, Nigerian government is budgeting billions for NE reconstruction, how much was budgeted for SE reconstruction after the war? Was it not through various town union development programs that we all rebuilt our war torn towns without external help?
How did we build Owerri airport? Was it not by communal efforts?

One minute, Igbos are accused of hating themselves, the next they are accused of loving only themselves and hating others, morons can't make up their minds, and it's even more annoying when an Igbo with brain but that have refused to use them is repeating same Igbophobic platitudes.

Nigeria is a failed colonial entity, for now and for the future.
It's never going to work.
The earlier you get this into your skull, the better for you.
Thanks bro,

I don't get upset when outside ndi ilo na ndi uta screech their usual nonsense. I just consider it human nature.

However, what really gets my goat is when clowns of very doubtful parentage claiming Igbo, hide behind that cover to cast aspersions on their supposed ethnic group.

If an imbec1le is greedy, it shouldn't generalize by blaming his personal curse on an entire ethnic group that has nothing to do with his personal predicament.

Anyway, I respect your struggle. As for me I support all secessionist groups in this country.

I even supported BH until they started terminating innocents with reckless abandon and imitating Arab camel fvckers.

It certainly cannot be for the simple reason that some perfidious English men had put this contraption together for their convenience.

PoliticsRe: What Measures Are The Northern Elite Taking To Tackle The High Level Of Illitera by Curlieweed: 10:59pm On Jul 30, 2017
dokiOloye:
The northern elites will rather build more mosques where their collaborator imams will indoctrinate the masses 5 times daily and madrassas where d children of d poor will be forced to cram d quran in Arabic rather than in English which is more useful to a Nigerian.
They will send their own children to study in d UK and Egypt but will hardly build conventional schools for their masses cos it is better for them to keep d masses in ignorance so they can always mobilise them during riots and during elections to vote for dundees like Osama BinHary.
This thing no concern me but I think it's rather facile to blame only the elite for a phenomenon with clearly complex cultural and historical antecedents.

The Northern governments have actually invested (proportionately) more in education than their counterparts down here. They have made more efforts to make education more affordable using tools like bursaries and scholarship. The question is why have the masses largely refused to take advantage of these opportunities? Anecdotal evidence suggests that individuals from outside the region take advantage of the opportunities disproportionately to the situation with Northerners in the South. That is the question you will need to answer in order to attempt solving the problem.

I haven't given this issue a lot of thought ( because it's none of my business) but there was a time when people from my part of the world were also similarly disadvantaged regarding educational accomplishments. They understood rather quickly that education was the key to advancement in what was essentially a new paradigm. They then made huge communal and individual sacrifices to close the gap.

My poser are;
a) Why doesn't the Northern masses recognize the benefits of education?
b) If they recognize the benefits therein, what is preventing them from taking advange of existing opportunities and even making communal and individual efforts to expand same.
c) Does residual feudalism have a role to play here?
d)What is the role of religious leaders in all these and related who is paying these religious clowns.

You can force a horse to the stream but you can't force it to drink. Don't just blame (horse) groom.

PoliticsRe: Biafra Can Only Be Achieved By WAR by Curlieweed: 3:14pm On Jul 29, 2017
Rossikki:
That is a childish argument. There is no nation on earth that will sit back and allow its primary resource base to 'secede' from it. It just doesn't happen. Texas has at least 4 major secessionist groups, who want that state to leave the US. But as the oil and gas headquarters of the US, Texas will never be allowed to secede, no matter how much Texans demand their right to 'self determination'.
Scotland is also the oil and gas hq of the U.K. But they got one referendum and are working towards another.

We keep talking about oil in this country but only about 5% of people in this country even benefit from it. For me, it's a huge curse. The problem is that a tiny handful of a venal elite benefit from oil and are loath to loose their stranglehold on what is essentially rent.

Thank you for sharing this. This is a real eye opener. I had a vague awareness of this "almighty" list but I didn't know it was this draconian.

This should be an eye opener to people like Charlie Boy who advocate for the nice sounding idea of creating an Igbo Economic hub. Frankly, it's quite clear that without very active and close support from the FG, this is a real Herculean task. Actually, the experience from 1970 to date suggests that the FG has stopped at nothing to ensure that this would never be the case.

Since after the inhuman #ZariaMassacre by the evil Nigerian tyrant @MBuhari, my international friends have been pressing me to leave Nigeria.

I respect your struggle.

However, it's Nigeria that produced these fascist monsters. Nigeria also nurtures, promotes and reward them for their filthy crimes.

There are few innocents here. Did you not see the way your fellow Nigerians celebrated the butchering of innocent Shites and Biafrans? Did your neighbours not attack you after the official murderers had finished their own job?

There is something fundamentally wrong with this country and it's at the very foundation of her existence.

I can understand your plight as a virtual religious minority but this country has never had any respect for minorities of any kind. The fiscal structure is an eloquent witness to this. You build your country with their wealth, ignore them and when they protest, you use weapons and uniformed thugs paid for by their wealth to murder them.

Every tribe in Nigeria are being marginalized. My tribe (Itsekiri) is far more marginalized by the Nigerian state. The Idomas are Marginalized. The Calabaris are marginalized. The Gbagyis (original inhabitants of Abuja) apart from being marginalized were driven from their ancestral lands to pave way for FCT. The least marginalized tribes in Nigeria are The Hausa/Fulanis, The Yorubas and the Igbos.

The worst form of marginalization is not even tribal, it is class. Class marginalization is far worse than Tribal marginalization. The upper class are seriously marginalizing the lower class and poor, so much so that over 90% of our revenue is expended on the top 10% upper class of the population irrespective of tribe. Even Boko Haram and IPOB seems to be a sort of revolution by the poor class against the rich upper class.

The Nigerian state protects the upper class (whether politicians, Businessmen, civil servants, etc) and exploits and oppress the lower class. It does not depend on tribe. It is only those that fall out of favour among the upper class that lose that protection.


Everybody has their positive and negative sides. The Igbos are brash, proud, boastful and has a "make money or die trying attitude", but at the same time they are independent, hardworking and innovative.

Agreed 100%


This is the only way to succeed. Elect people that can change the status quo. or better still organize yourselves into a pressure group to advance developmental causes.

Senate President, Bukola Saraki, is set to declare President Muhammadu Buhari’s seat vacant, if the ailing President fails to show up, in the next 18 days.

This came into consideration on Wednesday, when a pro-democracy group laid bare plans to commence a daily sit-out at the National Assembly in 18 days, if the Legislature fails to respond to the health problem of Buhari, as prescribed by the 1999 Constitution.

In a statement released by its leader, Deji Adeyanju, and Secretary, Dr. John Danfulani, the group noted that “Buhari has now been absent from office, and from Nigeria for 72 days, and if the situation remains unchanged, it would commence the sit-out on the 90th day of his absence”.

“The Leadership of the National Assembly must choose between the Nigerian people and the cabal”, Concerned Nigerians declared.

“72 days is too long for a Commander-in-Chief to be away from his country, without any explanation to the people that voted him in”, the group said.

“We hereby, demand that the National Assembly invokes Section 144 (4) of the Nigerian Constitution, and direct the setting up of a Medical Panel, in conjunction with the Acting President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, to ascertain whether the President is incapacitated”, the statement continued.

“If the President is found with any infirmity that renders him incapable of discharging his duties, the Senate President and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, shall officially declare him incapable of discharging his duties, and declare his office vacant, as prescribed in (2) of section 143”, the group declared.

pazienza:
1. Not true! Awolowo fall out with Akintola was much after 1961, Akintola visit to the North was before 1960. Awolowo never had any problems with Akintola for his visit to the North. Because relations between the two remained smooth and normal.
Awolowo major problem with Akintola started because Akintola refused to be a yes man, he wanted to be the numero uno, he wanted to be the one steering the Yoruba ship, he wasn't going to leave that role to Awolowo. And also, there was a case of love for lucre and economic interests, as it was wildly reported that Awolowo wife and Akintola wife fought fiercely for the lucrative post of being the sole distributionship of Coca Cola products in the West, further straining the relationship between Awolowo and Akintola.

2. Well this is the dilemma in assigning the activities of political parties and politicians to ethnic groups, but this is the dangerous game Yorubas played in their media propaganda to vilify Ndiigbo, so I would also use it to bury Yorubas themselves and with no mercy.
Akintola is Yoruba, so his actions must be perceived as those of Yorubas, because often times, Yoruba history revisionists would have us believe that Akintola was killed in the Jan 1966 coup by Igbo soldiers, because his NNA party win represented a Win for the Yorubas and a loss for Igbo political class grin. Katsumoto and his Yoruba disciples had pushed this agenda on this forum, So in that moment, Akintola becomes a Yoruba rep when it suits their narrative, but he becomes a renegade when it doesn't suit their narrative, as you are currently attempting to do. grin
Infact, the whole Igbo coup agenda by Yoruba history revisionist is built on the pillar of Akintola being a Yoruba leader and rep who Igbo soldiers eliminated because the victory of his NNA alliance meant the replacement o Igbo persons with Yoruba ones by NPC in federal institutions and parastatals. grin

You lots can't eat you cake and have it.

Akintola was an Igbophobic human being. Igbo members of the Western House were mainly in the NCNC, how exactly could Akintola AG faction Now be composed of few Yorubas and Mainly(yes you didn't add it, but you were subtly promoting it grin) Igbos?
NCNC was in UPGA alliance, with NNA as the enemy, how exactly could NCNC members in western region be under NCNC and still be in alliance with NNA together with Akintola ? grin
Your Igbophobia is getting out of hand, it's blocking your rationality. grin

Akintola actions would always remain Yoruba actions, and we would continue to view them as such, just as Awolowo actions would continue to represent Yoruba actions.
Unless Yorubas are willing to change their narrative of events of those era,ours won't change.
Good points.

Your friend stated that Zik led the UPGA alliance. Not true. MI Okpara led the alliance because at this time as President, Zik was retired from partisan politics.

He also mentioned something about Igbo members from the Western house aligning with a clearly Igbophobic Akintola. I don't have the facts but this doesn't seem plausible. The NNPC leaders I know in the west were not Igbo but people like Fummilayo Ransome-Kuti, TOS Benson and Adeniran Ogunsanya.

The series of khaki invasion and gunning down of unarmed Biafra agitators in Port Harcourt, Aba, and Anambra in the glare of international bodies revealed the true image of Nigeria. Nigeria is for beasts and savages, not humans.

How can a lying, bloodthirsty, nepotistic, and budget padding Nigeria continue to assume airs that she is fighting corruption? Good riddance to piffle!
Dear Biafrans, be bold to evangelize. We are children of the Almighty God - Chukwuokikeabiama, Tamuno, Tamara, Abasi, Oghene.

Everything that has happened to Nigeria these few months are karmic. Karma, the retributive natural law, has come to take its POUND OF FLESH from a demonic suppressive and oppressive enclave called Nigeria. The blood of our Biafra martyrs is crying out. A country that arrested Cosmos George Oto'obong just because he clamoured for the restoration of Biafra must collapse. I am worried that an intellectual like that was imprisoned without a charge. I am so worried that a lettered royalty like Prince Nnamdi Kanu was unjustly locked up in our pigsty-like, squalid prison facility for years because he wants his own nation.

Yes, I am worried that our beloved brothers and sisters were killed for no other reason other than their agitation for Biafra. May things go from bad to worse in a country where bloodletting has become a way of life in Jesus's name. Amen. Nigeria is crumbling before our own eyes. God is doing His thing. There is no rest for the wicked. Lootocratic politicians, your days are numbered. God is judging everyone. Biafra has come to stay. Restructuring will not change the high cost of goods in the markets.

Restructuring will not fix the devalued Naira. Restructuring will not bring back the lives that were taken by the godless Nigerian khaki. Restructuring will not return the $15m late Sani Abacha asked the CBN to be transferring from our national coffers to his overseas accounts on daily basis. Nigeria will have no peace until REFERENDUM is given to our sister regions. We must go! We have divorced Nigeria for good.

Fellow Biafrans, remain focused. Continue to say a loud no to the zoo politics. Let us take the message of Biafra restoration to the traditional rulers and community associations. They are all waiting for us. Speak to someone about Biafra today. Become a veritable tool for the evangelism of Biafra today. Thanks be to the Almighty God that we are all alive.
All hail Biafra! Shalom.
Good write.

But regarding the highlighted. No need to be worried because..
