Sports › Jay Jay Okocha Vs Kanu Nwankwo,who Is The Best by damoobaba(op): 1:16am On Jan 07, 2013
Jay Jay Okocha Vs Kanu Nwankwo,who is the best player to have ever played for Nigeria.

Jay Jay Okocha:A midfield marshal.when he plays ,you have this feeling or confidence that the team will hurt the opposing team,a leader anyday and of course an entertaining footballer.Even the great Ronaldinho said He learnt a lot of skills from Jay jay when they were playing together at PSG.He may have not played at very big clubs but that does not underestimate his potential.Remember Pele named him in his 50 greatest footballers list some years back.

Kanu Nwankwo (Papillo):Nigeria's golden boy.An enigma who has won it all both for club and country.Only few silverwares have eluded the Arochukwu born striker.The most decorated African footballer after Samuel Etoo Fills.Even his heart problem after the 1996 olympics didn't seem to slow him down. Always a thorn in the flesh of opposing defenders,Kanu established as an important member of the super eagles throughout his active playing days.

In your humble opinions,who do you think is the best Nigerian Footballer of all times.

Politics › Re: Searching For Fashola's Achievements by damoobaba: 3:00pm On Dec 25, 2012
Sincere 9gerian: The opening of the thread, referenced below, triggered MASSIVE search for the achievements of Fashola, the 'performer', in the last 6yrs. The search began few days ago but so far nothing tangible has been found. Already tens of thousands of people have moved in groups, to the nooks and cranny, hoping that something tangible will be found soonest. On my part, I am leading a group of about 500 persons on this same issue. So far our efforts have not yielded fruit but we'r still searching and very hopeful (provided Fashola's achievement were not kidnapped recently).
Please where ever you are, join in the MASSIVE search for Fashola's much talked about achievement in Lagos. If you find any, pls let us know on this forum.
Time is running out!
https://www.nairaland.com/1138739/truth-fasholas-success/5
Abi didinrin leleyi ni,if you can't see or feel Fashola's achivements then you need to visit Yaba left or Igando Gen Hospt ward C20.See you when you feeling bera.Best of Luck (BOL) i̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̅ your recovery!

Politics › Re: Igbo's Don't Care About Any Biafran Declaration by damoobaba: 11:47pm On Nov 07, 2012
ogugua88: That's not what I'm saying at all. Something you and others never fail to remind me is that charity begins at home. You even said it in this post. My question is, why don't Igbos acknowledge that we have our own problems? I'm called an idealist for believing in peace and collaboration to move people forward. Isn't believing that the recreation of Biafra will solve the problems of Ndi Ibo idealistic as well? I understand that Igbos suffer injustices and acts of discrimination, often times violent. Many crimes taking place now are reminiscent of what transpired prior to the civil war. Boko Haram targeting Christians/Igbos is a big problem, but it's just as troubling to read news of Igbos being cruel and/or murdering other Igbos. My father was nearly kidnapped in June. Armed robbers took all his money from him and drove him a distance before releasing him. He was lucky. Imagine how my mother felt, watching her husband being taken, especially when she was still mourning the loss of her father. I know you and many others think I've never been to Nigeria, but I was there just last year. My sister was harassed by young men, whom my elder cousin and I had to fight off of her. The same way some of you complain about not being able to live freely in other parts of Nigeria is how I feel in Anambra. How Hausas can tell who is Igbo or not, by accents, pronunciations, and/or features, is how fellow Igbos can pick my family and I out, not only by my and my siblings accents, but also by our "fresh skin". The way some Igbos admonish other Igbos who reside and have businesses in the north, who should be allowed to do so freely by the way, is the same way I had to admonish my adult sister for walking with her female cousins rather than our cousins Emeka or Afam. In other words, I admonished her for "behaving too freely" in her hometown, Neni.



One's tribe is his or her identity, but I would never use it against someone and I would never discriminate against someone because of his or her region. That's how I was raised. Some of today's tribalists were raised in tribalist households. That's understandable; it happens. Considering that most of us here are adults, we should be able to tell between what is right and what is wrong. It is wrong to mock Igbos as "Igbos". It is wrong to call Yorubas "yorobbers". It is wrong to label the entire Hausa people as Islamic radicals based on the foul actions of an infamous minority. Discriminating on fellow Nigerians is pathetic. It shouldn't be tolerated by anyone. Considering that charity begins at home, I start with myself and try to be a role model. OnlyTruth once said that if Igboland is successful and prosperous, then other regions would want to emulate it. Well, if I'm tolerant, hold no biases, and stand up for what is right, hopefully another Nigerian will see that it's possible for a Nigerian to reach across the "aisle of tribes" to other Nigerians who are against anti-corruption, anti-violence, etc., and emulate my behaviors. That's my hope anyway. It doesn't matter if it's only one person who respects me or takes my philosophies to heart. Change is change and I'll gladly take it.

There was nothing wrong with that thread I created. I opened that thread after reading unpatriotic comments about whether or not people were ashamed of being Nigerians. Many of them were. It's okay to be angry if your country, state, town, etc is not moving in the right direction. However, Igbos and the rest of Nigeria have to be vocal. Considering that Nigeria is technically a democracy, we are promised under democratic rule the right to a voice. We cannot sit with folded arms or conveniently type behind laptops/computers/tablets in disdain for our government. The purpose of that thread was to shift the ball onto the court of all Nigerians. It isn't necessarily about one Nigeria. I did ask for short-term goals and long-term goals, and they could range from doing something at a school or work place to a bigger scale such as state or federal government. Again, as many of you have said, charity begins at home, so what is wrong with my thread? Can you get any closer to home than one starting with himself or herself?



I'm very much aware that there are no federal infrastructures/establishments in the east. I think I recall this issue being raised in June or so in the parliamentary office thread. It's a shame that the federal government has done nothing or close to it in that sense. We shouldn't forget, however, that we have governors, senators, representatives, etc., who are supposed to be representing us. I offered solutions such as starting grassroots organizations, educating more Igbos (particularly about an international airport in Enugu), pamphlets, meetings., etc. In summary, pro-activity. I know it's unconventional, but it's more than worth a try. I wasn't taken seriously. Instead, some other members of Eze Ndi Igbo said they had a list of email addresses of government officials and that they wanted to send emails on the matter. Anyone who believes they can send an email to our rogue officials and get serious reply is on a long thing.

I know many may disagree with me, but I believe that the best weapon is information, and that's part of the reason I opened that thread a while back. Nigerians know what to do and they know that any able-bodied person has the ability to make a change. The question is, are they doing it? Many of them are not. That thread is only four pages, meanwhile, tribal threads can reach 20 pages within a few hours. Isn't that disappointing? If we know what to do, then why aren't we doing it?



I hope I've answered your questions.
A̶̲̥̅♏ a Yoruba guy,without trying to insult your tribe,from this comment,you sound like somebody who was brought up a total human being.who sees her neighbours as brothers/sisters.A̶̲̥̅♏ sorry,this attributes are un-like Ibos.would love to meet you,even date you!

Bro,its even worse with Igbo people,you hardly hear of other tribes settling down i̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̅ their region because they are not accomodating at all,very hostile.even when they settle among other tribes,they want to claim ownership of the area after some time,yet when the same treatment íڪ metted on them somewhere else else,they come out to cry wolf.Ethnic bigots.imagine igbos telling Fashola before 2011 elections that they wouldn't vote him unless he makes an agreement with them that he will have more Igbos i̶̲̥̅̊n̶̲̅ his cabinet if he gets elected.Lagos na their village?
