Ngwakwe: Most times good candidates are afraid of their lives and I believe it will take extraordinary sacrifice.

We will do it and we can.

But the problem we have in the South East is decamping to PDP after winning election.
I think Peter Obi and Rochas should be encouraged and stay back. Its the freebies and goodies that the Party at the center distributes that makes some politicians join them

If Rochas and Obi stays and go all out to campaign against PDP in Abia and Ebonyi one of them would fall because of the abysmal performance of the current PDP governors.

If SE holds their 5 states under APGA, The center party would be forced to look at you and make concessions

Look Mimiko is under LP and he hasnt died infact he fought ACN and won. Orji kalu did with PPA Tinubu did with ACN

Ngwakwe: Obasanjo and his ilks are still alive in Eastern Nigeria but gradually their machinery will be booted out as it happened in Imo State in 2011.

Remember what Obj did to AD.

Abia State is under PDP military occupation during the last election till this moment and the military were used in hijacking ballot boxes and there was terror of kidnapping

Just take it from me, people are getting wiser but many are still hungry and ready to sell their soul to the devil
We are waiting to see if the SE would liberate themselves from the shackles of a hausa party and rally round theirs

I have always said it on this forum, SE should come under PPA or APGA even with their defects rather than gather under the Umlera with everyone in PDP

No one would take you serious when you are a small part of an all comers party

I think posters have answered Eziachi appropriately

If you aggress my land So i should just chase you back and turn around? Where do they do that?

In WW2. Germans attacked Soviet territory, Soviet pushed back, Why didnt they stop when they chased Germany out of Russia? Why did they follow them and pummeled them even till they got to Berlin and overthrew Hitler forcing a surrender on Russian terms only (Germany had to surrender twice to satisfy Russia and Stalin)

On the second part are you insinuating the SW should exchange one occupation for another occupation? Especially with what Ojukwu has in stock for us communicated to Banjo

Troop were in Lagos because we were in a country called NIGERIA and its not abnormal for US Federal troops to be in Texas, Alabama or idaho

But SW was not in Biafra so what do we have to do with Biafrans troops in our territory

Stalin too tried to forge an agreement with Hitler, But once Hitler invaded Stalins territory all agreements were off and they became enemies.

You would ask why was Stalin the most brutal against Germany? Why didnt Stalin just turn back after chasing Hitlers troops out of Russia?

Because he betrayed the initial agreement and invaded his territory

How does a striker get chances when he doesnt make himself available for passes

If we follow your analogy We can say Defenders and keepers are always to blame for losses. Because if they stopped the opponent from scoring the team wont lose.

So whats the job of strikers to just loaf around the field?

By almost all rating Torres was adjudged the worst player on the field yesterday. Facing a keeper and blasting the ball senselessly.

Is that How van persie plays his own

See how someone placed his own chance why didnt he do an "ANYWHERE BELLE FACE" Thats why RVP has more goals in 4 months than Torres in the last 2 years

Ngwakwe: Today in the South East everybody is trying to training their ward up to University level as a basic standard for education.

Having so many people in the dark during past decade made the politician sway the peoples opinion using slightest lies thereby manipulating their ability to decide.

Times have changed, South Eastners can now vote their choices sometimes children against their parents. Forget about some figures you see in the electoral data sheet as so many are forged by ''powers-that-be"
Education cant be the reason why the SE allies themselves with the conservative North.

The SW which has always been in the opposition to the conservative North are you saying they are better educated than the SE?

Thats why the PDP still holds majority of the SE states because they are always with the conservative.

In the SW no single state is with the conservative PDP. That is as at today 2013.

If you say SE people in 1960 and 1979 were easily manipulated and uneducated how about people in 2012?

Torres: He looked disinterested against QPR and when his only shot of the game is a half-hearted attempt straight at the 'keeper, you have to wonder how this man has now seen off three different Chelsea managers.
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1466319-chelsea-vs-qpr-6-things-we-learned-from-chelseas-0-1-defeat/page/4

How can anyone who makes a living calling himself a striker shoot like that in that situation? Even mercy Akide would have done better

Benítez, in fairness, was not helped by Fernando Torres delivering one of his most anonymous performances. Demba Ba’s arrival will be timely.

coogar: new year - same shit, everyday!
only a lunatic would blame torres for yesterday's loss. lampard was uber-useless! phat frank cannot close down at the edge of the box because he was too heavy to quickly do a job. this is why ramirez(premier league's best tackler) is handy in such games.
Torres had the teams best chances and wasted it. If Torres has done what other sensible strikers do in front of opposition keeper We wont be having this conversation
Torres - 5
Torres just didn't show up today, plain and simple. He gave the ball away far too cheaply and was second best to so many balls. Chelsea lacked a cutting edge in front of goal against QPR and that's because their top striker went missing.
http://www.espnstar.com/editorial/news/detail/item915442/Chelsea-vs-QPR-Player-Ratings/
Demba Ba must be watching tonight and thinking "I could do better than that" when looking at Torres. The Spaniard has not been at his best, but his side are at least creating more chances for him now.

Ngwakwe: I wasn't politically active during Shagari election in 1979. But asking why I voted a Yoruba against a Yoruba in 1999 is out of the question as it wasn't an election but a national gift to South West as a compensation for the crime against My Hero MKO.

May I remind you that my former Governor Ogbonnaya Onu of ANPP stepped down for Olu Falae of AD.
Actually in 1999, Obasanjo defeated Ekwueme and Olu Falae defeated Ogbonayya Onu in the AD-ANPP alliance

Why did you vote Obasanjo as Against other candidates in 2003 including Ojukwu and Buhari-Okadigbo ticket

If you notice the SE has always voted conservative and always pro establishment

1960 allied with the NPC conservatives, 1979 allied with the NPN conservative pro establishments, 1993 same thing allied with the NRC pro establishments, 1999 till date allied with the PDP pro establishments.

In 1960 even declined an offer that would make Azikwe the senior partner of an alliance with UPN to challenge the establishment
Politics › Re: Awo-ojukwu Enugu Conversation by dayokanu(m): 5:24pm On Jan 03, 2013
From: The Military Governor,

Republic of Biafra Enugu,



22nd August, 1967.



My dear Victor,



1. For some time now, you and I have been discussing the circumstances that have led to the current and inevitable disintegration of what was the Federation of Nigeria. We have been fully convinced that the aim of the Hausa/Fulani complex has ever been, and will ever remain, the total domination of every other part of what was known as the Federation of Nigeria. It is impossible to forget that the crisis which led to the army take over in January 1966, the coup of the Northern soldiers led by Gowon in July 1966, the wholesale and indiscriminate massacre of the people of what is now Biafra- and, to a less degree, the people of the Mid-West and West, including the Yorubas, were all the direct result of Hausa/Fulani attempt to subjugate and use as tools, the gallant people of Western Nigeria namely the Yorubas. We do not need to remind ourselves of the heavy losses in life and property suffered by the Yoruba people in their fight for justice and freedom during 1965.



2. Sharing.our belief that the people of Yorubaland have a right to live a life of equality and self-respect and justice free of domination and dictatorship from any quarter, you have both identified with the cause of the Biafra struggle for survival and expressed your determination to see the people of Yorubaland freed from Hausa/Fulani domination.

We, the people of Biafra, for our part are willing and have decided to give you and the people of Yorubaland every assistance to achieve your aim.



3. After clearing the whole question with my Executive Council, I, as the Commander in Chief of the Biafran Armed Forces, have decided to place at your disposal Biafran forces, for the liberation of

Yorubaland on the following clear conditions:-



(i) You will have nothing to do with the Military Administrator in the Mid-West Territory during your sojourn there prior to your move to the West.

(ii) The willingness and preparedness of Biafra to assist any part of the former Federation of Nigeria wishing and willing to liberate itself from the Hausa/Fulani domination, does not in anyway whatever

imply any inclination on her part to compromise her sovereignty or preserve what remains of the defunct Federation of Nigeria. In other words, our sovereignty and break with Nigeria is irrevocable. Nothing must, therefore be said or done by you or any member of the Liberation Army to give a contrary impression.

(iii) Biafra is determined to maintain and safeguard her sovereignty and ensure that her integrity and safety are never again threatened.

(iv) Biafran troops will, after the liberation of the Yorubaland, remain in that territory only for as long as we in Biafra consider it necessary for the Yorubas to consolidate their position and sovereignty against any external threat.

(v) On the liberation of the Yorubaland, you will be appointed as the Military Governor of that territory.

(vi) The liberation of Western Nigeria will be a prelude to the liberation of all Yorubas up to the River Niger and the severance of all connections between the West and the North at Jebba.

[size=14pt](vii) During the period of Biafrans troops’ presence in your territory, all political measures, statements or decrees shall be subject to the approval, in writing by myself or on my authority.

(viii) Should our troops arrive and liberate Lagos, the government of the Republic of Biafra reserves the right to appoint a Military administrator for the territory. Such an Administrator will remain in office until a merger of that territory with Yorubaland is effected by Biafran troops.


(ix) As soon as possible after your appointment as the Military Governor of Western Nigeria and separation of that territory from Nigeria, you and I must meet to discuss:
[/size]
(a) the duration of stay of Biafran troops in your territory;

(b) the areas and subjects of cooperation between the liberated sovereign states of Western Nigeria, or by what name it may call itself, and Biafra.



4. I do not need to remind you that Biafra regards all Yoruba as friends. As such everything should be done, to ensure the minimum force and loss of life are involved in achieving the objective of liberation.



5. It is essential, in order to avoid misunderstanding or confusion, that all subsequent requests for support be formally made to me by you in writing.



6. Will you please signify in writing, your acceptance of the above conditions so that you may leave for Western Nigeria and lead the army of liberation.





Yours very sincerely,



signed Lt. Col. Odumegwu Ojukwu,
Politics › Re: Awo-ojukwu Enugu Conversation by dayokanu(m): 5:23pm On Jan 03, 2013
The ferocity with which the West pursued the war was borne out of the way Ojukwu and Biafra conducted themselves in the opening months of the war.

Initially many in the West believed it was a war between the North and the East and they would stay neutral. But that neutrality went away the moment Biafra forces invaded the Midwest and aggressed the West

The conduct of Biafra forces in the Midwest was something that no one would want to happen in their homeland

Every civil war commentator would know the Battle of Ore was the turning point where a concerted effort by the Other Southerners against Biafra began

No Westerner would fold their arms while they turned his homeland into a war theatre. What Enahoro and Ogbemudia saw happen in their homeland Awolowo, Obasanjo and Adekunle wouldnt

If Biafran forces have gone up North and attacked the North The West wouldnt have cared At least Gowons homeland of Jos was closer to Biafra than the SouthWest. Attack Plateau and Go towards Kaduna Not attack the West

The appointment of a SE administrator over the Mid west was a problem and when the Letter from Ojukwu to Banjo was also another insight into what awaits us

Tell me what would be the reaction of Biafrans if that letter was the other way round from SW to the SE. I am certain no one would not attack back

Ngwakwe: I can't say who carried the majority vote in the East in 1993 between Abiola and Tofa.

However, I served as a polling Clerk during that election. 3/4 of the vote cast in my ward was for Abiola, mine inclusive.
Tofa won 3 of the 4 SE states in the election . that tells the whole story

Tofa won Abia, Enugu and Imo. Abiola won Anambra

nateevs: Regarding Torres, I am not silent mate. I maintain the same stance. Show me where Lamps and his cohorts created one single chance for Torres yesterday in the first half. They created none. You are going on about how Torres cannot play in deep defense. Sorry mate, he cannot. What he can do, he does well and that is playing in between the lines. Same way Lamps cannot take the ball to the wings, beat a player with trick and cross the ball but you still call him the best midfielder in the PL even when the likes of Mata, Carzola and Fabregas can do that with ease. How poor do you think Lamps will turn out if you put him on the end of a 4-3-3?

So if you want Torres to work, you play to his strengths.


That said, Torres is not the only and best striker around. If you want a striker that can play with his back to goal, get out and buy one. Don't blame Torres for not being strong with his back to goal and claim Lampard is alright not being able to play on the wings.
So now lampard needs to tell a 50m striker that when he gets a chance he shoots low to a corner not just wildly like he did yesterday.

Simply law of Physics would tell that shooting low to a corner reduces the chance of interception by a keeper standing because the reaction time of the keeper to get down cant match the speed of the ball yet Torres of all options took the worst fired straight at a keeper from close range. Why did SWP shoot low yesterday instead of wild aimless Torres-like shots

I mean not even Thunder Balogun would try that with his jazzed left leg and expect a goal.

Or the delightful ball lobbed to him in the closing minutes which he failed to attack in the air like a number 9 should. Drogba kare lohun

How I wish that Matas corner in Munich went to the weakling Torres instead of a strong header of the ball like Drogba

Torres is plain useless end of

Ngwakwe: Know it today that Yorubas will vote for their candidate that is why they are propagating Gov. Fashola, who is just average in performance.

Igbos will vote for any person nearest to their tribe.

While few will vote based on the qualification and credibility of the Contestant as some people rightly voted Occupy Nigeria.

What differently can we attribute to Bakare devoid of Occupied Nigeria
Igbos voted Shagari, Tofa and Obasanjo
