BABANGBALI:

Go and look for a pot of ewedu to steal and leave me alone abeg!

When another of their aircraft will crash now, they will begin to complain.

BABANGBALI:
NCAN kano and Abuja branch pls investigate and confirm the name of the family and where dey come from. Use the name akpu to trace dem

bory09:
this flat head people with stealing of pot of soup be like 1&2.. the oduduwa rather prefer drinking garri than getting involve in such mess like this. reporting from abuja NCAN news channel

The story says Femi was the one cooking the soup. We all know Afonjas like draw soup more than anything and cone-heads usually live in the same compound. Igbos can never do something degrading like that!

Still on the matter.....

homebase:
The same thing happen in my area last week.

A mother with her 2 children stole a bowl of amala prepared by her neighbor in their joint kitchen and they eat the amala with salt water.

When the owner came out and started shouting, the woman apologized.

Who eats Amala in Nigeria?

mizzbouqui:
That's not true, I bought my fones with my hard earned money, I love pleasing myself when I can

The guy you quoted did not say "fones" like Tecno or Infinix! He meant iPhone 6s!!

nduchucks:
Frankly the Cargo I see in the Pics is worthy of belonging to a single exporter. This is nothing to brag about. State sponsored Agric exports should be enough to completely fill a cargo ship.

My comment was not meant to spite Obiano, but his handlers should stop disgracing the man by publicizing agricultural products not enough to feed a small village for a few days. A cargo ship filled with such products would deserve such a publicity - that is not to say Anambra will not get there.

Most of the produce Anambra exports are perishables like Pumpkin leaves which need to be evacuated within a day to their destinations. Putting them in cargo ships will make them degrade faster. Please think well next time before you comment!

I dodn't see any ugba or ukazi or even isi ewu on that list...


Major exports are shipped via containers and cargo ships, not some little village boxes in plane luggage compartments with shoes, pata and handbags...


Funny people...

You need HELP!

While my able Governor is exporting agricultural produce to boost the economy of my dear state Anambra, one NEPA-Bill Certificate mallam i know of is asking NNPC to explore for under-priced crude oil in Chad Basin! That is the difference between a man who has Masters in Economics in a foreign University and one who did not even write WAEC!

Education is very IMPORTANT!

The Proprietor of the school, Chief Yomi Otubela, said it was only a minor disagreement among pupils of the school.

He said, “The issue was about some teenagers who had issues with themselves on where to park their cars. The police that were on duty at the school gate actually mediated. No school property was damaged; nothing happened during our valedictory service.”

But the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, confirmed the attack, adding that seven suspects had been arrested.

I never knew that this cowardice and fear for anything Hausa by these people was this serious!

A master will always be revered by his subjects!

Happy Birthday to her..



From Glory to Glory.. That's my new name..

And from Glory to Glory.. That's where I'm going..

What will be your new name by next year?

No Wonder!

Abagworo:
Most roads in Anambra are presently in deplorable condition with flood and accidents taking lives while people like Chino and Obiano play politics with it. Ask residents of Ogidi what they've been going through or Obosi. You cannot cover the tummy if a pregnant woman forever.

At least, over 80% of the roads in Anambra are in far better condition than in Imo

mrkayusfit:
When Tinubu decides to deal with dino melaye i hope the igbo yoots won't start protesting on his behalf like they did for the criminal called Nnamdi kanu. Dino dey bite more than he can chew now. Keep cheering him to his destruction like you did to Nnamdi kanu.

What concerns Igbos with melaiye? Is Dino an Igbo man or are you just suffering from diarrhea of the mouth?

He will soon be released and given N3,000

This is the job of the James Eze who happens to be the SA Media to Obiano. He is the one supposed to give this refutal but he is busy junketing the whole of USA and snapping pictures which he posts on whatsapp while an independent media outfit does his job! Pageant SA

So they dismissed him for doing the right thing? SMH!!

Did anyone notice that it is the northerners who are involved in the madness the more

Rednaxelot:

---

The same person that dinned and winned with the family during the day, went at night to kill the pillars of the family.

Little wonder he was killed and maimed after death.

What else can be a better definition of a traitor than Nzeogwu. Yet, his kinsmen will come here to call Yoruba people Traitors.

So you didn't see Major Adewole Adewoyega among the coupists? What treachery is worse than the one you perpetrate against your own brother? Educate your tribesmen first before mentioning Nzeogwu.

If you commend this and berate and mock Innoson, you are a hypocrite.

By the way, they are assembled not manufactured in Nigeria. #SeeHowEDeyPain

oluwabishop:
There's a lodge /hostel named Allen Avenue there. The reporter/editor failed to indicate that specific detail.

It doesn't still eradicate the fact that the story is a LIE

What is his NAME? He looks like those "people".

Omonile no dey sell again since the "Army Slapping Episode"

Punch just shot themselves on the foot! There is no place in Awka know as Allen Avenue! Yje only area that has "Avenue" attached to it's name is Ziks Avenue.

Punch are nothing but a lying tabloid!

Joe is a persona-non-grata in Igbo Land. We have already disowned him.

Read an excerpt written about him by Anambra State

Joe Igbokwe: STOP DISGRACING NDI ANAMBRA AND NDIGBO! (SPECIAL EDITORIAL)

When Anambra State Online was founded in December 2014, it was done under the premises of disseminating news and information of events as it affects our dear state. Part of the reason for this decision was because of the daily positive activities and landmark achievements being recorded in the state on almost a daily basis especially since the present Governor Chief Willie Obiano took over the mantle of leadership. It was therefore noteworthy to keep Anambrans both at home, inter-state and in diaspora abreast with news and information of the turnaround which the state had started experiencing after many decades of jinxed leadership which made Anambra a sorry state with nothing to write home about in the past.

But with all these said, the need to also bring to light some negative occurences in the state by both indigenes and aliens residing in the state and also Anambrans living outside the state was not to be under-emphasized!
At a point, we were getting mails and messages from some our fans and readers not to post negative occurrences in (and about) the state especially those perpetrated by Anambrans since Anambra State Online is not accessed only by Anambrans alone but outsiders aw well because according to them, such negative news could be used as a smear campaign against the lovely people of Ndi Anambra.

But we responded that it was pertinent to post these negative events so that people could learn from them and serve as a deterrent to some of them who may in one way or the other be informed about the circulation of such anomaly by Anambra State Online and probably other media outfits which may probably cause them to rethink and turn from such anomalies in future (or so we hope).

One of such anomalies which we are bringing to the fore is from Engr. Joe Igbokwe who hails from Nnewi Local Government of Anambra State! Igbokwe who is based in Lagos State and currently serves under the All Progressive Congress APC in the state has been known for crude remarks and vituperation against Ndigbo which leaves anyone that hears or reads about them in doubt as to whether he is really of Igbo descent.

One of such outbursts was way back in July 2013 when the former governor of Lagos state Fashola ordered the mass deportation of Igbos some of whom were traders, artisans and even innocent residents on their way to their place of work on the said day. They were detained for days before conveyed in trucks like refugees at night and dropped them at the Onitsha end of the Niger Bridge in the dead of the night in what he claimed was part of the efforts of the state government to rid the state of destitution.

The Anambra State Government under the leadership of the former governor Peter Obi wrote to the LASG and queried their actions and days later, the Lagos State government released a statement with an excuse that the individuals deported or rather in their own phrase "relocated" were mostly beggars and miscreants who posed a threat to the existence of Lagosians.

Fashola also accused erstwhile Governor Peter Obi of mischief and inciting hatred.

After careful examinations, it was discovered that two-thirds of the deportees were from neighboring South Eastern states like Abia, Enugu, Ebonyi and Imo States. Not only that this unfortunate development was to serve as a huge burden to the Anambra State Government who was now saddled with the task of relocating these people to their neighboring states with tax payers money, it was also embarrassing to the whole of Ndigbo.

Some social groups and Igbo spokespersons living in Lagos and outside decried the humiliation but Igbokwe who was the publicity secretary of the Lagos State Chapter of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) at the time called the Igbos in Lagos "ingrates" simply because of their protest against the Lagos State Government.

Hear him, “My experience with Ndigbo in Lagos will take a book to tell. Our people do not know their enemies. They do not know their friends either. Igbos lack the power of creativity, the power of strategic thinking, power of critical thinking."

“If Ndigbo can attack Gov Fashola the way they have done in the past few days, then I can conclude that we do not really know who our friends are."

Just recently, in an interview, Igbokwe was asked about his take on the Niger Delta Avengers and IPOB, he had this to say, "This country is what it is today because all have sacrificed something even blood to make it what it is today. But ungrateful Igbos and and insatiable Niger Deltans want to destroy the country out of greed. There is no hope for these bloody idiots who call themselves the Avengers and IPOB. They are a bunch of reprobates and common criminals. They are too small and too insignificant to hold this responsible and responsive government to ransom through blackmail and intimidation."

Joe Igbokwe went further to say that Niger Delta has nothing to offer Nigeria anymore except criminality, sabotage, destruction of oil platforms, murder, brigandage and corruption.

"Look at what these animals are doing to their environment in the name of avenging the Federal Government. Ah, ah, I see war. I see war. And I hope the human rights community are seeing the damage and the open confrontation." he blasted.

On the Igbos and especially Biafra, he had this to say, "Igbos should be thankful to the Hausa-Fulanis and Yorubas who allowed them into their land to make good money. As far as I am concerned, Biafra is a joke, so people should stop dying for nothing." he said.

It is true that Igbos who are hardworking and resilient to survive the negative effects of the Civil War bounced back and are scattered in various parts of the country doing one business or the other. But what Joe Igbokwe does not realise or refuses to admit is that the trade activities of the Igbos in the North and South Western Nigeria (which he says the Igbos should thank the Yorubas and Hausas for) gives a boost to the revenue of such states in addition to their urban development. So who should be thanking who here?

Anambra State Online is not in support of the use of violence or destruction of amenities to attain a goal like in the case of the Niger Delta Avengers but someone needs to remind Igbokwe that an agitation for self rule by the Niger Deltans and IPOB which form a fraction of the people of the South South and the South East Nigeria is not in itself wrong. Afterall, the UK had voted to leave the EU on a referendum which is similar to the case of the quest for the Niger Deltan and the Igbos.

But what bothers us and so many reasonable Southerners alike is the efforts of the Federal Government to check the remote causes of these agitations and bring a lasting solution to them via dialouge and peaceful resolution.

What Anambra State Online expects from Joe Igbokwe is to ask why the current APC-led administration has refused to adopt the implementation of the National Conference Report (2014) which if implemented would have undoubtedly resolved the lingering ethnic and pseudo national problems in the equity. But unfortunately, President Mohammadu Buhari said the report belongs to the archives!

What is also expected of Joe Igbokwe is to also ponder about the popular "5 Percent" acronym where the President clearly stated in an interview in Washington that the dividends of democracy under the new APC administration will be enjoyed mostly by the regions that voted for APC en-masse while the 5% consisting of mainly the South South and South East regions will not really feel the impact of Governance. We would be delighted if he (Joe Igbokwe) gladly raises that issue.

If he is fanning the embers of favoritism and eye service for his party, he should also reminisce over the fact that he worked himself up vigorously for the APC all for nothing in the prelude of the Nigerian Presidential Elections.

At least for his effort, Lai Mohammed was rewarded with a ministerial appointment as Minister of Information; but Joe Igbokwe was not considered good enough for any position, not even for an "ordinary" post of a commissioner in Lagos State!

This should have put him on a thinking pedestal that the South Westerners (Yorubas) forge a common front and stand for their own anyday and anytime no matter how much you stroke them gently on the back with sycophancy even to the detriment of your tribe, they still see you as an alien who needs to be checkmated. Past events have proven this trend repeatedly.

To them, Joe is an "Ordinary Igbo" who is among those worthy of drowning in the Lagos lagoon had Ambode not won; and therefore not being a "son of the soil", has no business being appointed Commissioner of Information in their Lagos State Government.

Probably, the Oba of Lagos, Oba Akiolu who threatened the Igbos resident in Lagos with drowning in the lagoon equally decreed the entire exclusion of Igbo people from the Lagos State cabinet, leading to the ouster of the only Igbo person to ever serve as commissioner in Lagos State, Ben Akabueze. This also brings to light the appointment of only Northerners as President Buhari's trusted advisers and overseers in 98% of all government key positions.

Anambra State Online therefore asks if Joe Igbokwe was not a descent of Igboland but rather had a name like Joe Ogunowe, would his fate have been any different? If an Adebayo Ogunsawe had put in as much effort as Joe Igbokwe did, selling the propaganda of the APC leading to the last election, to the extent of even denigrating his own people, would he not have been considered worthy and rewarded with a juicy appointment as a deserving stake holder in the APC Lagos State government?

Joe Igbokwe, no matter how he tries to Yoruba-nize himself or lapdog Bola Tinubu and his APC crew, he is still seen and treated as an Igbo-outsider never to be trusted with a key political position in the South West not to talk of the North. He should also remember that "charity begins at home".

In conclusion, we do not have the slightest idea of what moves other people or what stirs their resolve to make certain decisions; but for someone who dutifully carried the waters of the APC as Joe Igbokwe did during the last election and was not rewarded with any meaningful position, Joe Igbokwe would have either gone publicly rogue on Bola Tinubu and his APC or at least, employ the golden rule "Silence". But alas, "Joe Igbo-ekweghi" is content with being seen as in the good books of Bola TInubu or rather the perception of being seen as within the corridors of power, no matter how peripheral and then utilizes that opportunity to lambast his tribesmen by spewing gibberish from his mouth at any little instance.

We hereby use this medium to call on Chief Joe Igbokwe, that was on the payroll of the Lagos state government that defended Gov. Fashola’s anti-Igbo policy joining and calling Ndi Igbo in Lagos names, and remind him that “No one wins a battle against his kinsmen”.

We also advice him to refrain from DISGRACING ANAMBRA (HIS HOME STATE) AND NDIGBO AS A WHOLE because as the popular adage goes, only a fool finds the dance of his mad relative entertaining!

Igbokwe is telling them the bitter truth but they cannot understand the handwritten on the wall, my Igbo brothers keep agitating for Biafra while lagos is building the biggest refinery in Africa that will give them stable power supply, employment opportunities for their teaming youths and also boost their economy.

I remembered vividly the 'up nepa' like shout that rented the whole of my area when the news of the late junta was announced. It was like Nigeria just scored the golden goal that won the world cup.



Rest on the fearless general.

May that shout repeat itself very soon!

l know some who bring in spare parts, hair extensions, shea butter, raw cocoa powder etc.

Ok. Thank alot for the info

Pavore9:
There are people at the port who know their way around. Let me cite an example, some of us in Kenya who bring in goods for sale from Nigeria, all we have to do is tell our contact person in Nigeria to have the goods dropped at a particular place within the trade fair complex in Lagos, the goods are weighed, about N450 is paid per kilo. Your contact person's duty ends there as every Saturday the forwarding company takes the cargo to the Airport then the following Wednesday we go to the shop of their partner here in Nairobi to pick our goods, paying 200ksh per kilo to clear it. No direct contact with Customs both in Nigeria and Kenya! Igbo guys run the forwarding business on both sides.

Nice arrangement. So tell me, what sort of "goods" can someone actually send to kenya as you cited which is in high demand there which can rake in money? Are those goods food items, household wares, appliances? What are they?? I'm just curious
