Oando and Transcorp are two stocks whose rallies are hardly sustainable for long. I always resist the temptation to join their rides and I have never regretted.

Total nonsense, Gowon dud not even start the process of trying the coup plotters to even get to stage of if Ojukwu was protecting them

The only reason you are asking why Ironsi didn't try the coup plotters is because Ironsi is Igbo. Gowon is a Northerner, thats why nobody is asking him why he didnt attempt to try the same coup plotters in 10 months

Its all about ethnicity in Nigeria and thats why Nigeria is a waste of time. We should disintegrate the country, go our different ways a d put an end to this headache we have been giving each other since October 1960

You obviously lack comprehension. Gowon clinched power on August 2 1966 and Ojukwu immediately began to question his legitimacy on the grounds of army seniority rule and by implication didn't recognize Gowon as head of the army let alone head of state. So how could Gowon have set in motion a bid to try a gang of coup plotters who were right under the custody and protection of a professional rival who refused to recognize him as having the position and authority to try coup plotters?

But when all we other tribes saw that Nigeria is a waste as far back as 1944 and called for disintegration, you and your kinsmen told us we were wrong and that the unity of Nigeria is perpetual and non-negotiable. So we decided to agree with you. Why are you now singing a different tune again? Are you toying with our sensibilities or you are just being inconsistent?

gidgiddy:


Let me ask you this question, which I know you will never answer. Gowon was in office for 10 months before Ojukwu declared Biafra. Why are you not asking why Gowon did not try the coup plotters?

Of course we know the answer, its one rule if you are Igbo, its another if you are a Northerner

You guys are laughable

Nearly all the coup plotters were already being protected by Ojukwu in the Eastern Prison and with the face off between Ojukwu and Gowon over Ogundipe, Ojukwu would definitely not have corporated with Gowon on any order for the release of the coupists for fair trial.

Madam Mcy, please any reasons for Omatek plc sudden 10, 10% movement. Thank you.

As a person currently on OMATEK ride, I can tell you that the reason for its 10% daily movement is almost all about SA.
Details have been repeatedly given here on what SA means and the factors which underlie it.
I could get out of OMATEK today anyway.

Your statements are contradictory and makes mockery of your education in you have any. You clearly stated they were not in jail, you were corrected.
You are coming up with other falsified information that he was in luxury in kiriki only to be moved to Aba .

Nzeogwu for the benefit of the doubt was put in jail pending conclusion of military trials, ironsi was going around trying to calm down frayed nerves and make peace. Please kindly show me any coup tribunal that was concluded in 4 months

Two army mutinies happened within those moments;

1. The January 15 1966 coup by Ifeajuna and co.

2. February 23 declaration of Niger Delta Republic by Isaac Adaka Boro.

Ironically, Ironsi was able to get Isaac Adaka Boro tried and sentenced to death within two months despite his mutiny came one month and eight days after the Ifeajuna and co mutiny. So why did it take Ironsi his entire six months in office (and possibly more had he not been overthrowned) to try and punish the Ifeajuna mutiny?
Reason: Isaac Adaka Boro was not his fellow Igbo but Ifeajuna and co largely were.

rinzaugustine:
Many south easterners see ironsi as a villain. He foiled Nzeogwu’s coup after the coup had succeeded 95% remaining Lagos. Kaduna and Enugu was already captured by the charismatic and revolutionary young leader from south south major Chulwuma kaduna Nzeogwu before Aguiyi-Ironsi thwarted their efforts and arrested the battalion that came to capture Lagos. Aguiyi-Ironsi was dumb in the head Like Tinubu and didn’t know what to do with power even after several advise from his kinsmen like general madiebo he never heeded to any until he was killed in 1966 July. If he had not constituted obstacle nzeogwu and co would have made Nigeria the best country in Africa because they had good plans for the coup and more like in the mound of Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Thomas sankara and other like minded revolutionaries then but Ironsi killed that dream and became clueless on what to do with power...like Tinubu like Aguiyi-Ironsi..dumbos without plans

Can you in all honesty and sincerity assert that the countries of these coup plotting revolutionaries have become the best in their respective continents? On the other hand the actual best countries of the world today e.g. USA, Japan, Canada, Germany, UK, SA, China, France, Luxembourg, etc never had their democratic experiences punctuated by military intervention.

ojesymsym:
Wow... So just buying small shares like that can have a lot of impact in future o.

Even though some of those companies may have actually died the ones that survived were more than enough to make up for those ones..

Yes but it has to be the shares of companies which have immense grown potentials and are in a sector which provides indispensable goods or services, especially when their stock prices are undervalued.

That Yoruba proverb ( kira kira o'dola, ka sise bi eru ko da nkan) is very valid.

Hustling or making money does not equate wealth, working hard like a slave doesn't equate to anything tangible.


This narratives can only change if we understand the psychology of the rat race and the wisdom to multiply and grow the little cash flow generated by our hustling on a regular basis

I completely share this view based on my own personal experience and the true life story told to me by the stockbroker who introduced me to the Nigerian Stock Exchange in 2003. According to him, there was this secondary school classmate and friend of his whose father was working with Nigeria Railway Corporation and was posted to Kaduna Station while himself and his friend (the man's son) schooled in their home town all in the Sixties or so. Many years after he and his friend graduated from secondary school and got separated by search for tertiary education in different parts of the country, the father of his friend got retired from Nigerian Railway Corporation and news began to reach him, who had then graduated from the Institute of Stockbrokers, that his friend's father came home with very many awards certificates he won for diligence, dedication to duty, and honesty while in the service.
The news so much spread at home that he was compelled to travel home for a first hand knowledge of what exactly those certificates were about. On arrival home and paying a visit to his friend's father, the old man welcomed him with a drink and immediately told the story of the countless awards he won as NRC staff, some of which he had put in photographic frames and hung all over the four walls of his sitting room as decorations of prestige. On examining these awards he discovered they were all certificates of shares periodically bought for all NRC staff by the management of NRC through regular deductions from their salaries as a policy back then. On closer examination he realized that most of those certificates were for shares of the likes of Guinness, Total and other today blue chips while they sold for between N1 and N3 hence had become worth millions at the man's retirement but financial ignorance kept this man in the belief that they were mere awards for excellence in service. Ironically the house the man managed to build and hanged those certificates of 'award' was unpainted and unfloored due to 'lack' of funds. It was at that point he told his friend's father that he was hanging millions all over his house yet living in penury but the man could not understand until he explained to him that those were investments which could be converted to millions of cash. Then he asked the man to bring down all the certificates, destroy the photographic frames around each and every one of them, pack them all in a file and follow him to Lagos where he helped him dematerialize them through his stockbroking firm (Midas) and sold off the shares in just two out of the over 30 certificates and the man was paid the over N5m proceeds to his astonishment and asking how it is possible to have made so much money without being aware he was doing a very lucrative business alongside his job while he worked in NRC.

The woman is retired from the SC why are they attacking her.

These people are daft sha, the same Odili that was dishing out judgement in favour of PDP over the last several years.

And while her judgements favoured the PDP which their present LP is clearly a subsidiary of, they hailed her as incorruptible and most upright judge in the history of the Nigerian Bench.
Very emotionally unstable lots.

This is investment thread but the country did better under the military regime than this thing they call democracy .The democracy in nigeria is fraud. I was alive and old enough to make my judgement .The corruption and stealing since 99 no get part two.

Nobody should quote me pls

Why want not being quoted? This democracy has failed so far because it was actually an extension of the military rule which was defined by a deadly corruption. Why is the First Republic the only period in Nigeria's history about which nearly every Nigerian agrees there was good and purposeful governance, yet it was a period during which the military had absolutely no presence in government? You think it was a mere coincidence? Nigeria began to experience real misrule beginning from 1966 when the military struck. As for the period from 1999 till date, most of those who have ruled and held the most important offices in this democracy are products of the military establishment hence we are not genuinely yet into democracy.

But where is tritritri? Someone tell him that TRANSCORPSE is back alive and kicking.

Just that the value is far less today. 50 naira of those days is worth over 200 naira today.

Unfortunately true.

Penguin2:

Nobody has ever said that Ifeajuna was the leader of the coup, I’m hearing it first from you.

Pray, how did you arrive at that conclusion? What are your sources?

Watch the video below to the end and you'll see where Ojukwu himself confirmed that.

https://www.facebook.com/ikwuedo.nimose/videos/264292422907935/

Favourchris:


Read ur history bro... I won't argue with u, he was part of those who carried it, but he was not the leader.

May I ask u, where was nzeogu and where was ifeajuna when the coup was been carried.

May I also ask u, why was OBJ not involved in the coup, because if u know ur history, u will know OBJ and nzeogu where bossom friends, right from their peace keeping in congo.

Bro read books mehn, read books.

Per the first bolded; opinions have always been unanimous that the coup plot was hatched and nurtured entirely in Lagos at least according to the author of the Why We Struck which most Igbos take as the most authoritative account. Now, how could Nzeogwu who was millions of kilometers away in Kaduna have been the leader and initiator of a coup architected in Lagos?

Per the second bolded, if you had followed your own advice of reading history books, you would have known that Obasanjo was far away in England on a military training course while the coup lasted hence there was just no way he could have been with Nzeogwu hence the alibi you are trying to employ here fails.

Favourchris:


If only u read ur history, u will know the guy who planned the first coup Kaduna nzeogu is not from SE, he is from Asaba delta state, grew up in the north.

But what do I know is easy to blame SE

That first coup was plotted by Ifeajuna a native of Onitsha in the present SE. Ojukwu himself confirmed this in his interviews.

Quite dumb.
Christistruth is not same as Deadlytruth. The presence of truth in the two monickers is purely coincidental. To appreciate the difference, check the writing style of each and compare.

Baba Lamidi Apapa formed the Labour Party with others over 21 years ago and Obidients tried to chase him out the Party

You need to ask your forefathers who formed NCNC and what Azikiwe did to take Over that made Awolowo and others abandon the NCNC to them just for the sake of Peace

History always has a way of repeating itself. They also hijacked PDP from the original Fulani founders but later turned around to start demonizing the same Fulanis. The APGA founded for them by their own leader never grew beyond Anambra state in their entire home region.

aybabz101:
the military has ruled Nigeria more than the civilians....I stand to be corrected....and yet all na same....

It was the military that exposed Nigerians to corruption with impunity that we are battling today and deprived us of evolving our democratic processes.....

This democratic phase we are passing through now ought to have been experienced over forty years ago but the military no gree... we still dey gather Abacha loot till now!

Those calling for military action are just neonates in adult bodies... they do not know what military rule entails..... when they dont have their twitter and other social media platform again, them go learn. when their businesses are raided at will and theirs goods confisticated, dem go know. when there is no freedom after speech and their wives, sisters and girlfriends are violated at will, them go understand the meaning of military rule....

May God bless you every day.

Those that bought with dividend in mind should just sell at a loss and move on.?
when the company did not declare loss...

I think First Bank is trying to prevent Chaos in the AGM...
Protesting shareholders think First Bank is preventing their grievances from bring heard

So are you suggesting that if you happen to buy shares of a company with dividends in view but the situation of the company begins to border on an uncertainty that threatens to erode your very capital, you will stubbornly stay put just because you bought those shares for dividends?

Streetinvestor2:
I am a shareholder.I do not wish to sell my holdings. Therefore the AGM should hold so I can get my dividend as an investor. I hope I am now speaking English and not French. They have no reason to shit the AGM as all banks that declared dividend have paid.

Was it FBNH that dictated to you your wish not to sell your holdings with them?

Streetinvestor2:
It is beyond selling of thr shares.I hope you know without AGM ,no payment of dividend till further notice

So how exactly does that change the fact that they are free to sell their shares and move on?

talk2me2:
What is there problem? They should go and sell there shares.

You obviously live in my mind.
I wonder if anyone used glue to hold them onto FBNH shares. Comedians.

Marketapprentic:


Congrats my man but leave our market for us . That your achievement is great but it is a dwarf to 750% that I achieved in FTNCOCOA. AND OVER 450% ACHIEVED IN ETERNAL OIL.

You and FTN COCOA in the same sentence? What happened to stocks like NGX, ZENITH, SEPLAT, MTN, AIRTEL, TOTAL, OKOMU, etc? Am I getting this feeling that opinion really changes with time and experience?

onuman:

Do you know that no other politician from the south of Nigeria cried out louder than Bola Ahmed Tinubu for political restructuring of Nigeria?
For more than 10 years right from 1996, Tinubu campaigned all over the Southwest region for political restructuring of Nigeria. He is one of those people who understand that the lopsided political structure of Nigeria is a fraud against the two southern regions that formed Nigeria with the northern region in 1960.
But in 2014, Tinubu bluffed the political restructuring CONFAB of Goodluck Jonathan government and joined Buhari's most Conservative CPC made up mostly of Arewa people who notably had been resistant to political restructuring of Nigeria. All because Tinubu saw an opportunity to become president after Buhari.

Tinubu bluffed Jonathan's restructuring because it was the biggest political fraud in the history of Nigeria for the following reasons:
1. Jonathan made it clear that he himself believed that our problem in Nigeria has nothing to do with structure but has everything to do with corruption which if killed, every other thing will fall in place according to him.

2. That pressure from civil society groups made him convoke it against his own conviction.

3. Most of the delegates to the said confab were handpicked by Jonathan and the rest few handpicked by governors hence they didn't represent the people of their constituencies but the interest of the establishment.

4. On the day of inauguration,
Jonathan in his opening address advised the delegates to use 75% votes as basis for consensus whereas the universal democratic 66.67% is very difficult to attain on any issue.

And many other reasons.
Did Jonathan need Tinubu to have implemented the report of the confab crooked as it was due to his desire to have it fail?

onuman:


Obasanjo tried to fix Nigeria through political restructuring required by Nigeria. He set up a National Political Reforms Committee to do that.
Towards the end of the conference, Arewa delegates joined by a few delegates from the SW, abruptly ended the conference through their refusal for a tiny percentage increase in derivation from oil asked for by the SE and the SS delegates.
The political structure of 20 new political units in Fulani-controlled Arewa North, but a meagre 17 new political units in the two southern regions - this lopsided 36 states and Abuja political structure created by northern soldiers is killing Nigeria.

Goodluck Jonathan started his own Political restructuring conference, concluded but could not implement it before Buhari came in. Buhari said he put the recommendations of Jonathan government CONFAB in the freezer.

Your fixation for political correctness is simply historic, else how on earth would someone lie with a straight face that Obasanjo, who frustrated all attempts and calls for SNC during his tenure as President, started any form of restructuring and got frustrated by Arewa in conjunction with the same SW that most remotely pioneered the call for a return to true federalism? If we are to agree with you and blame Arewa and SW for failure of restructuring, then what do we say to you Igbos whose Azikiwe and Ironsi destroyed the federal structure in the first instance?

If Jonathan was sincere about his own confab, why did he declare some topics no go areas and why didn't implement the recommendations but chose to pass them over to Buhari?
