Not surprising. At least 40% of Igbos are in other parts of 9ja.

Even Zik and Ojukwu were born in Niger State back then already.

Wickedfacts:
Pay which Igbos?
For what?

The people that Biafrans rape and kpai in the midwest, wetin Igbos pay to them?
The ones buried alive in present-day River state, igbos pay compensation?

Na politicians wey wan wind una I blame.

The case of initially neutral Midwest was really pathetic. Biafra had no honest reason to invade it.

Invading Midwest removed the most honest neutral peace broker from the equastion.

I support proper reconciliation and apology from all parties in the war. All sides should acknowledge what they did wrong.

Like it or not, the lack of proper reconciliation and restructuring after Biafra War is a major reason for our current insurgency and militancy everywhere.

Ending the war was one thing. Preventing something worse, the slow death of a nation, is another.

Totally insane.

Mad people dey since long.

they really betray this man

Nor be small thing o.

Politics na dirty game anywhere.

But trust UK MPs. Karma dey wait am.

Dregs, nor let anyone guilt-trip or manipulate you.

She didn't insist on marriage before having a child. Contraceptive is available and an adult woman knows how to access it.

Marriage guarantees nothing to a man. It only makes the woman become entitled. If she's a good woman, fine.
Dregs, in you, I see a dude with conscience and genuine desire to be a decent dad. A lot of guys won't bother. And they will enjoy life to the fullest.

If the woman keeps making life difficult, move on. She will soon marry a guy. There will always be some Simpae hominis somewhere to be step-dad to your child.
Just ensure you keep an eye on your child's welfare.

AVECDEO:
The leaders of this country and the nonsense movement promoting this xenophobic attack should be brought before the world criminal court to defend their involvement in this atrocities immediately.

Time for SA to face ICJ.

Since SA likes dragging other people there.

We live in a society where people are loud, indiscrete, like to show off, abuse any opportunity, and many are still very superstitious.

Imagine, through diligence and perseverance, you discover a hustle formular that works. You then give the update to one dim-witted fella. He might even give it to people more dim-wited than him. Then they cast it in no time.

Nobody wants that.

Even if you are not the selfish type, you still need to protect your source of garri.

Charito1:
mtcheewww. All this nonsense trash against Rufai, for saying the truth? I am ashamed on your behalf.

By and large, 9ja people don't deserve any better. That person you quoted represents most of our people. They worship their oppressors.

Rufai should not go carry HBP for people who nor know tse-tse fly wey dey suck their blood.

Viccur:
So she had to come out to spill it. No shame

We live in a shameless society. Otherwise politicians won't loot money meant to make life better for the poor masses.

For this lady, I guess most of her friends do it. So, it must be normal in her view.

My post was removed and I was banned without doing anything, I am just trying to document my journey on the Yoruba language, and then the bots banned me for no actual reason, Please do something, and restore my removed post

Could it be linked to tribal neo-imperialism as regards Igbira and Edo?

Lol. Insecurity is not even on the agenda.

Kidnappers/bandits must be licking their lips. Good luck to those going by road.

omoredia:
When una allow heartless leaders to rule this is the result. A bad person has nothing good to offer

Our people in general nor get good heart. Forget their playing to the gallery. The bandits grew up in families, homes, communities and religious places that still preach hatred against people who have other worldviews.

Our leaders are exponents of our society. Until one genuine benevolent dictator comes along and stops romancing bandits and corruption, we nor dey go anywhere near progress. Ask Malaysia and China how they did it.

When a few thousand bandits, kidnappers and lootocrats face the firing squad, others will learn.

2mch:
How is this related to SW? The killer involved is not Yoruba. Sick people are everywhere who kill for no reason regardless of location.

Go and follow my previous discussion with the werey before I was referring to.
Fact is our SW-CONTROLLED media are self-censoring and hushing up insecurity, graft and other atrocities believing they are helping Aare Tinubu. Also due to fear, tribalism and hypocrisy. Compare it to how they crucified President GEJ.

Can any sane person who is not an irredeemable hypocrite say that 9ja is more secure now than in May 2015? Well, the kidnappers do not discriminate or ask your tribe. Everyone dey collect. As we have seen in Oyo.

Unless you want to say all the bandits and kidnappers are also just sick.

Quite a terrible situation.

2mch:
The victims of shootings? Why dont you use google to find out. You better learn to keep shut about Nigerians cause you obviously dont know what you are talking about. It rains everywhere. Shey because we have Nairaland highlighting every bad thing? Even America does not allow such news in international space because of PR. But Nigeria allows Nairaland to diminish its value and reputation so people like you can just come and comment as if you are not alright.

9ja has no value to its citizens except the lootocratic class. Go and ask the xenophobes in SA how much they value or respect 9ja one. 9ja needs to sit up or disband and stop disappointing the black race. And the few 9ja people whose good effort is rubbished by a country with bad reputation.

Stick your head in the sand and refuse to face the truth. When bandits have kidnapped you like the kids in the forest, you will know how far.

The truth hurts, bah? If I didn't hit the nail in the head, you won't be this pained. A product of a failed nation defending failure.

The news is already censored anyway. SW-controlled media have been hushing things up due to tribalism since 2023. Imagine if the nationwide insecurity happened during GEJ regime. Dozens of Chiboks have happened since 2015.

muyico:
But wait o........
Why Nigeria University no award her scholarship here
After graduation over dere
Italy will retain her
Benefits it all

She could have been sent to UK directly for her PhD by state government or FG. No need to learn language first.

Her state government nor try. At least her ex-governor try.

More grease.

Sheuns:
These names never won them a World Cup trophy.

But they got to 2002 Final and lost to Brazil. That German set was even an average one. Ballack their captain and best player could not play in the final match.
Kahn made a rare silly mistake to let the first goal in during the loss to Brazil.

The current Indomie players are not rugged.

I watched Lothar Mathaeus, Thomas Haessler, Rudi Voeller, Andreas Brehme, Koepke, Thomas Strunz, Andreas Moeller, Mathias Sammer, and those rugged ones play. They were even more immense watching them live than on TV.

All this whitewash attempt makes our civil service, government, NASS, CBN and others look even more ridiculous and incompetent.

If all the institutions we have can be outsmarted by one averagely intelligent guy, then make one trader from Idumota CBN governor, one Amotekun or ex-Isakaba guy DSS boss, a vigilante from Afikpo EFCC boss, a market woman from Oja Oba Accountant-General, a teacher from Zaria the Head of Service, a village Progressive Union secretary the SGF, etc. They will all be more competent than these lot.

Instead of just admitting that it is corrupt practice gone wrong, they chose to sound even more pathetic. What a shame.

Samantha125:
A family that doesn't believe in tradition, because I'm from a strong traditional background and last thing I've ever wanted was for the other family to be judging my family by assuming that they're diabolical for being traditionalists.

Because many people associate African spirituality with evil, which is not always the case... In every religious denomination, there'll always good and evil people... And African spirituality raised and shaped me into the person I am today, no matter how much some people might demonize it, I'll forever be grateful of it even if I become a full blown Christian... So if my partner and his family weren't going to accept my background for the way it is, there was no way we'd have worked out.

And those forming modern religion are the most corrupt, intolerant and worst bunch of hypocrites on earth. All those "touch not my anointed" crooners.

They will not question what their god of men does, even if banging their wife or daughter. They will pretend.

2mch:
Na your family members you two de talk about sha. So what happens to the many school and public shootings or serial killings in the West? Una need Yaba left.

The victims of those shootings are not up to people buried in one mass grave in Benue or Plateau.

Which sane country will have 39 kids in kidnappers' den for weeks and people will be dancing in political rallies? Which sane country will have a fake FG Agency office in FG secretariat with FG budget? What can be more insane.
Actually, Yaba Left people are saner than average 9ja people.

The entire 9ja is insane. They need massive Yaba Left across the land to bring sanity.

You have never run a business to see the disgusting attitude of the workers. Na the Chinese wey dey maltreat the even fit them. Tueh!

motymop:
Rip to the couples

Most people just employ anybody they recommend

Always check the background of people you employ

Even do a psychiatrist test on employee

If employees smokes weed or do drugs, one day they will rob you to fund their drug use. Also watch the types of friends they keep

Remember that most adults in Nigeria behave like children, you always have to watch them when working, they have no sense of responsibility and accountability, you always have to tell them what to do, They also lack initiatives.

Just treat them like kids, be kind, boost their egos, pay them their salaries on time.

Yep! We have a large population, but a very low percentage of high quality human resource. Around 80% or more lack the moral, emotional, diplomatic and good attitudes and behaviours that make a population productive. Extremely few will honestly and conscientiously do their jobs without being closely watched. Even those with several academic degrees. People do things just anyhow, devoid of discipline or commitment. Don't even mention customer service.

So, majority are a liability to the society. It creates a society of naturally bright people that perpetually punch way way below their weight. See tiny Cape Verde at the FIFA WC right now.

People need to have fewer children, train them better in terms of civic upbringing and the government should quickly improve the economy.

Brendaniel:
You are simply admitting that Tinubu and his entire cabinet are not smart people, that one man can come and setup an agency, open bank accounts under CBN, got office space in federal secretariat, got police escort, got allocation under Nigerian budget, was meeting foreign delegates on behalf of Nigeria, got approval from president employ 300 staff members undetected.

So he was so smart that he beat all their intelligence plus DSS and EFCC?

And he has not even been arrested...

You are simply admitting that you are supporting ee d i ots in leadership... From Tinubu to his entire cabinet...

Anyone who tries to defend evil must look and sound very stupid. The more he tries to defend stinky corruption, the more he makes those who called GEJ clueless look like Olodo Uprising Caucus.

oluwaseyi0:
This man talks too way much

And his ego is too much. It's always about him and himself.

Atiku is not a good politician. He's probably a good person. But he has lost his ability to identify sound people to surround him.
But then again, sound and decent people are quite rare amongst political jobbers.

alanto:
Ijaw and Itsekiri leaders should be ashamed of themselves. They didn't need the FG to rotate political position.

First of all, who brought the boundary delineation matter? Why now?

Well, some people blame Iya Alakara for it. That it was to favour her Itsekiri people.

So, first tease that out. If true, then the issue needed to be solved where it came from.

regenerateman:
I said in the other thread that if those guys press Prince Adeyemi Adeniyi further, he might spill beans and it will consume many people in PBAT government. I suspect this council was allegedly established by COS and PBAT was never in the picture of this council or agency. The prince might have paid large sums of money to secure the appointment as DG. Similarly, he might have stopped to co-operate with them in sharing the council money. This might be the reason they blew the lid off.

I believe the man who orchestrated it got too greedy. Remember, since 2023, many MDAs were not getting even up to half of their allocated budget disbursed to them. And from the N1.3b, over N800m is for salaries. So many directors, statisticians, Level 14, Level 15, level 17 officers,10 drivers/mechanics and more, N200m for overheads and only N300m for capital projects.

So, why use N1b to execute 300m project? Does that even make sense? Why need a special council/agency to spend N300m? They say Tinubu travels often to woo foreign investors, why add to the hundreds of costly MDAs we already have to promote investment? Without electricity and security?

XTruth:
Lol you understand after that statement trump threatened to take out the USA military in Germany na so the chancellor change mouth fast fast. Lol

But the Chancellor was still right as we now know with Trump moving military away from Gulf States. He only massaged POTUS ego later.

Is moving US bases from Middle East not what Bin Laden, Iran and other radicals wanted all along? It seems like playing into their hands in my view.
From moving to the Negev/Israel, na moving most military resources out entirely go follow.

Regarding Germany, if USA decides to be spending hundreds of billions of dollars on military on German soil, Germany can save their money and use it to provide excellent social services and amenities to Germans.
Even Trump don dey realise say mumu don do protecting those who have the money and can develop the best Weapons to deter Russia in no time and protect themselves.

TheStoriesOfMan:
The Ọzọ title is a rare title conferred on those who have made their mark in a community. The title is not for riffraffs, table rousers or never-do-wells. It is also expensive.

There are rules and regulations on how an Ọzọ chieftain should live, but I won't post it here.

There are high nobility burial traditions in many parts of 9ja. They are usually closely guarded secret and only a select few get to see the actual burial. The casket is not usually publicly displayed.

A lot of NLers just don't come from that class of people. And some are indomie people without knowledge of history or tradition.

So, that German Chancellor was right.

He said Iran hammer USA wetin nor good.

I knew German Chancellors are not known to open mouth "waa" and talk anyhow.

All those that are saying it will make nigerians jobless, that the bible says do not repay evil with evil ...may God punish all of una...shege banza kawai

Nor mind them. Na those quotes them take make them docile.

And pamper Boko. They were busy turning the other cheek while bandits overran the country. Now, kidnapping is a routine.

I saw one Weah and I thought it was George Weah’s son in the USA team.

Na him. Tim Weah playing for USA. Though George Weah never played at FWC. Liberia did not qualify.
