Married people please gist us Stop dating crappy women and sl*uts. Don't do one-night stand and don't date women who are already in a relationship with someone else. Start dating a wife material who could potentially be your future wife. By that I mean a woman has the following qualities; - Good-looking. - Humble and Respectful. - Educated. - Intelligent. - Ambitious. - Honest and Faithful. - Good family background. Good luck! |

juman: Continuation “But when the crunch came, his allegiance to Nigeria disappeared. In the election of the (Organization of African Unity) OAU Secretary-General in 1985, Buhari voted against Nigeria and for Niger instead. He secured the election of Ide Oumarou, a Fulani man from Niger; as opposed to an Igbo man (Peter Onu, Acting Secretary-General OAU 1983 – 1985) from Nigeria. By so doing, Buhari became the first and only Head of State in the history of modern international relations to vote against his country in favour of his tribe.” ----- Femi Aribisala Vanguard News Tuesday February 3, 2015. “There may be no Nigeria. I draw parallel with Somalia so many times. (Somalisation of Nigeria).” ----- Muhammadu Buhari. The Sun News Sunday August 8, 2010. “If what happened in 2011(alleged rigging when he actually lost as attested to by foreign independent and neutral observers) should again happen in 2015, by the grace of god, the dogs and baboons would all be soaked in blood.” ---- Mohammadu Buhari in Vanguard News Tuesday May 15, 2012. “the threats of Muhammadu Buhari during the 2011 election campaign led to widespread violence by his supporters in the North after he lost. They went on a rampage; looting and killing; in spite of the fact that, by all accounts, the elections were adjudged the most free and fair in the history of Nigeria’s current democratic experiment. By the time the mayhem had subsided, over 1,000 people had been slaughtered in cold blood, including innocent National Youth Service Corp members, and 65,000 Nigerians became displaced. Undaunted Buhari went on to declare in a statement made pointedly in Hausa in a BBC interview that: “If what happened in 2011 should again happen in 2015, by the grace of God, the dog and the baboon would all be soaked in blood.” ----- Femi Aribisala Vanguard News Tuesday December 2, 2014. “Boko Haram names Buhari, 5 others as mediators” “Leadership of Jama’atul Ahlis Sunnah Lidda’awati Wal Jihad, also called Boko Haram has named the former Head of State and presidential candidate of Congress for progressive Change (CPC), General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), among six prominent northerners to mediate between the group and the Federal Government. Abdulazeez said other people who could mediate with the government if its conditions were met, include Dr. Shettima Ali Monguno, former Yobe State governor, Bukar Abba Ibrahim, Ambassador Gaji Galtimari and Hajia Aisha Wakil and her husband, Alkali Wakil.” ---- Vanguard News Thursday November 1, 2012. Why would Boko Haram name Buhari as their preferred mediator? Could it be a case of shared ideology or partnership in Jihad and violent imposition of Sharia law throughout Nigeria? “Buhari backs amnesty for Boko Haram” Abeokuta – Former Head of State and national leader of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) has thrown his weight behind the proposal of amnesty for Islamic sect, Boko Haram, commending the federal Government for setting up a committee that will look into the feasibility of granting amnesty to the sect’s members.” --- Vanguard News Thursday April 11, 2013. “Buhari Faults Crackdown on Boko Haram” By Godwin Isenyo, Kaduna "Presidential candidate for the Congress for Progressive Change in the 2011 Presidential election, Maj.-Gen.

"People were told that it was an Igbo coup but that is not correct. It is a very interesting part of the Nigerian story. In the first place, there have been many serious lies that have been told by our leaders in the last 45 years of Nigeria's history.

"Thousands of Yorubas in Lagos and throughout the West celebrated into the early hours today over the release of Chief Obafemi Awolowo, the hero of the Action Group who was jailed for subversion in 1962. The decision to free Awolowo and his associates had already been made a week ago, July 27, by General Ironsi and they were to have been released tomorrow, Thursday, August 4. But the public did not know this.." ------ New York Times August 3,1966. "Do you also know that I released Chief Awolowo from prison?" --- General Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu Vanguard Newspapers Monday November 17, 2003. "The leader of Nigeria's Western Region Chief Obafemi Awolowo declared today that if the East seceded, the West and the Federal Territory of Lagos would also break away from the federation. Before a cheering throng of Western leaders in Lagos today, Chief Awolowo threw his prestige and the weight of the Western Region behind the East in its confrontation with the Northern-led federal military government." --- New York Times Monday May 1, 1967. "...a war against the East could only be a war favoured by the north alone. Second, if the true purpose of such a war is to preserve the unity and integrity of the Federation, these ends can be achieved by the very simple devices of implementing the recommendation of the Committee which met on August 9, 1966, as re-affirmed by the decision of the military leaders at Aburi on January 5, 1967." --- Excerpt from Obafemi Awolowo's speech to Western Leaders of Thought at Ibadan May 1, 1967. "Three weeks ago, Chief Awolowo publicly endorsed the East's demand for a loose confederation of Nigeria's four existing regions: East, West, Mid-West and North. Chief Awolowo also went on record as saying that if the East seceded, the West will automatically follow, setting in motion the possible brake-up of the federation. The fact that he has now consented to join Gen. Gowon's advisory group indicates at least his temporary acceptance of the General's policies." ---- New York Times. June 3, 1967. "The record of Awolowo, the only major political leader left in Nigeria, made it highly likely that his stand would be strongly influenced by his antipathy toward the Ibos and that he would opt for unity if offered a leading role in the FMG." --- United States Diplomatic Archives: Nigeria (1964 - 1968). Foreign Relations of the United States 1964 - 1968, Volume XXIV Africa. Department of State, Washington D.C. "Awolowo saw the dominant Igbos at the time as the obstacles to that goal (leading political power), and when the opportunity arose - the Nigeria-Biafra war - his ambition drove him into a frenzy to go to every length to achieve his dreams. In the Biafra case it meant hatching up a diabolical policy to reduce the numbers of his enemies significantly through starvation - eliminating over two million people mainly members of future generations." --- Chinua Achebe Africa's greatest writer and world's most widely read author of the 20th century in his book: "There was a Country: A Personal History of Biafra" page 233, published November 2012 by The Penguin Press, New York USA. "All is fair in war, and starvation is one of the weapons of war. I don't see why we should feed our enemies fat in order for them to fight harder." --- Chief Obafemi Awolowo (minister of Finance, 1967 - 1970) New York Review. 21 December, 1967. "But there were hard-liners in Gowon's cabinet who wanted their pound of flesh, the most powerful among them being Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Federal Commissioner For Finance. Under his guidance a banking policy was evolved which nullified any banking account which had been operated during the Civil War. This had the immediate result of pauperizing the Igbo middle class and earning a profit of 4 million pounds for the Federal Government Treasury. The Indigenization Decree which followed soon afterwards completed the routing of the Igbo from the commanding heights of the Nigerian economy to everyone's apparent satisfaction." ---- Chinua Achebe in "The Trouble With Nigeria" pages 45 and 46, published in 1983 by Cox and Wyman Ltd, Reading, Berkshire, Britain. "Awolowo had been a steadfast Yoruba Nationalist from the 1940s to date. He had no record of betrayal, double-talk or even indecision in the pursuit of his goals. But above all he had in recent years as the leading civilian member of the Gowon administration presided over a monumental transfer and consolidation (through anti-Igbo policies) of economic, bureaucratic and professional power to his home base. This singular achievement secured for Awolowo for the first time in his political career something approaching 100 percent support among the Yoruba." ---- Chinua Achebe in "The Trouble With Nigeria" page 55, published 1983 by Cox and Wyman Ltd, Reading, Berkshire, Britain. "Awolowo dismantled Fiscal Federalism in 1968 (usurping oil ownership and control from South-East and Mid-West Regions to the center controlled by Hausa-fulani-Yoruba) and as the author of Gowon's economic policy from 1967 - 1970, he stripped the Southern Minorities of their resource rights and control through the Chief G.I. Dina Commission." --- Obi Nwakanma Vanguard Newspapers Sunday July 31, 2005. "Since 1969 (under Yakubu Gowon/Obafemi Awolowo war regime), Nigeria's military governments centralized control of Oil Industry under the presidency. Obasanjo is, however, the first head of state to also serve as Oil Minister, further limiting public scrutiny of the country's oil sector." --- David Philips, executive director of the Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity. Guardian Newspapers Monday January 1, 2007. "Awolowo was a devil and his policies led to the present problems that the people of Niger Delta are fighting." ---- Asari Dokubo Champion Newspapers Tuesday march 22, 2005. "The same UNICEF representative (Deputy Director E.J.R. Dickheyward) went on to convey something of what lay behind this intransigence" "Among the large majority hailing from the tribe (Yorubas) who are most vocal in inciting the complete extermination of the Ibos, I often heard remarks that all Nigeria's ills will be cured once the Ibos have been removed." ---- Dan Jacobs Senior United Nations Information officer for UNICEF in his book "Brutality of Nations" page 42, published by random House Inc.

juman: A formal declaration of the Northern Region's secession was narrowly averted Monday August 1, (1966) when Col. Gowon was elevated to power in Lagos. Lt. Col. Gowon had prepared a radio address proclaiming the North's intention to break away from Nigeria but was dissuaded by the Yorubas in the army. Appeals to Gowon for restraint from northern secession were also made by several ambassadors from Western nations, especially Britain. Although Gowon was dissuaded from the secession, he did declare that it seemed to him to be "no basis for Nigerian unity, which has been so badly rocked, not only once but several times." ---- New York Times August 3, 1966. "The creation of the 12-states structure by Col. Gowon on May 27, 1967 was an act of expediency aimed primarily at completing their siege of Ndi-Igbo and frustrating their survival and struggle for Self-determination. It dismembered the Igbos as they were split into fragments and put into different non-Igbo states. Thus, there were Ndi-Igbo of Portharcourt, Ahoada, Ikwerre/Etche divisions placed into Rivers State, Ndi-Igbo of Asaba, Aboh and Ika placed in the Mid-West, some other Ndi-Igbo from Azumini and Opobo put in Cross-river state. The rest of Ndi-Igbo were isolated and land-locked into East Central State. This act was calculated to paralyze Ndi-Igbo and incite our neighbors against us." ---- Ohaneze at Oputa Panel October 1999. The rigged elections of 1959, Federal elections of 1964 and regional elections of 1965; rigged and annulled census figures of 1962, 1963 and workers strike of 1964. The Western Regional crisis in which unpopular Premier Samuel Ladoke Akintola was undemocratically foisted on the Western Region, mainly Yorubas, by NPC-led Federal government with Tafawa Balewa as Prime Minister and Northern Premier Ahmadu Bello as sectional Party head behind this abuse of political power. Awolowo's incarceration in 1962 on treasonable charges and arbitrary use of the army against its constitutional role to slaughter over 3,000 Tiv ethnic minority in a civil agitation for regional autonomy from the Islamic north which was poised to maintain that hegemony; brazen corruption, nepotism and mismanagement etc led to the January 15, 1966 Coup-de-tat. Yakubu Gowon, in conspiracy with other northern officers, murdered Major-General J.T.U. Aguiyi-Ironsi, his supreme military commander and Nigeria's head of state and government, former Commander of the United Nations Peace-Keeping Mission in Congo and first African to lead such mission, doing so creditably and excellently. Ironsi, a distinguished career military officer appointed Gowon as army chief. He attained his position by merit untainted by what later became Nigeria's endemic ethnic favouritism that spawned mediocrity and gross incompetence in governance. Yakubu Gowon was a conspiratorial partner to the mass killings of Easterners, particularly Igbos and Eastern Officers and military personnel throughout Nigeria, except the Eastern region, prior to and after the ethno-regional counter coup of July 29, 1966. This genocide led by Gowon and cohorts totally employed the military might of the nation in personnel and equipment, in violation of the protective constitutional role of the Nigerian military towards its citizens, in the gruesome slaughter of about 100,000 Nigerians of Eastern region extraction. Gowon usurped the powers and position of Commander in Chief of the armed forces and head of state devoid of consensus of regional military leaders, respectively that of Col. Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu of the Eastern Region. He appointed himself over and above his superiors in utter disregard of military command structure and hierarchical order. He dismantled the regional governments for a unitary structure for Ironsi's unitary system which unified only the civil service for efficient military command structure and effective administration. Yet Gowon and his group falsely claimed the reason for ousting Ironsi was because he promulgated decree 34 which unified the Nigerian government. In fact he went further to name the structure as "federal" even as the supposedly federating units were created by Gowon and his military cabal and the old regional units which retained some autonomy, lost them totally. This false accusation against Ironsi was in line with what became all too familiar Nigeria's sinister and false accusations against the Igbo and pronouncing them guilty at all cost to engender mass hatred and hostility toward this group; a pattern that yielded the genocidal epic between 1966 - 1970. Gowon, as the military intelligence agent of the British Government aborted the constitutional conference resolutions of September 12, 1966 geared to calm the troubled polity and halt the mass killings of Easterners in Nigeria. He went on to renege on another critical resolution on January 4th and 5th at Aburi, Ghana, after being a signatory to its sensible and collective recommendations meant to usher in peace and reconciliation. Gowon and partner in what later transformed into Africa's worst 20th century war crime of genocide, Obafemi Awolowo, finance and prime minister of war cabinet, usurped ownership and control of Oil resources of South-East and Mid-West Regions to prosecute the genocidal war that cost untold African lives by enforcing blockade against humanitarian aid against Geneva Convention, leading to its consequent starvation of mainly women and children. Churches, schools, refugee centers, hospitals quartering internally displaced persons with aid agencies that risked flights into Biafra were indiscriminately strafed and bombed. Gowon's slogan was: "To keep Nigeria one is a task that must be done" but Gowon in the course of what became a war of attrition, had given away a part of the South-East region, Bakassi, to neighboring Cameroun to hedge the Biafrans who only defended themselves from a cruel and wicked aggression fueled by sheer ethnic and unjustified hatred. "This nation called Nigeria shall be an estate to us from our great-grand father, Uthman Dan Fodio. We shall vigorously resist a change of power. We shall manipulate the minorities of the north, and we shall regard the South as a conquered territory." ---- Ahmadu Bello Sultan of Sokoto in Parrot Magazine Wednesday October 12, 1960. "The conquest to the Sea is now in sight. When our god-sent Ahmadu Bello said some years ago that our conquest will reach the sea shores of Nigeria, some idiots in the South were doubting its possibilities. Today have we not reached the sea? Lagos is reached. It remains Portharcourt. It must be conquered and taken" ---- Mallam Bala Garuba West African Pilot Newspapers Wednesday December 30, 1964. “By 1960, shortly after Nigeria’s independence, the Prime Minister, Alhaji Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, had directed the principal of King’s College, Lagos, Mr. P.H. Davies, to provide places annually, for at least 15 boys from the North, whether or not they passed the requisite regular entrance examination.” ---- Col. Ben Gbulie (rtd) in “Nigeria’s Five Majors” page 36 published by African Educational Publishers (Ltd) Onitsha 1981. “By 1964 a group of young Nigerian officer-cadets, mostly Northerners, had been declared academically unfit and hence repatriated by the Canadian military authorities. These cadets were, however, pronounced commissioned by the Nigerian Federal Government no sooner than they had arrived at Ikeja Airport. Consequently, they had had to be absorbed into the Nigerian Army as commissioned officers, even though they had received no requisite military training.” ----- Col. Ben Gbulie (rtd) in “Nigeria’s Five Majors” pages 12 – 13, published 1981. Zak Maimalari had held the rank of Captain in 1960. But before my return from United Kingdom in 1963, he had soared to the rank of Brigadier. In other words, he had risen from Captain to Temporary/Major, to Substantive/Major, to Temporary/Lieutenant-Colonel to Substantive/Colonel and then Brigadier, all within that short span of time. It was just scandalous.” ---- Col. Ben Gbulie (rtd) in “Nigeria’s Five Majors” page 13, published 1981. “In an attempt to catch up militarily with the South, the Northern politicians had thrown out all discretion. They had lowered standards of admission drastically, settling for the minimum. For as I recalled, all the northerners in my intake had been trained at the Mons Officer Cadet School in Aldershot. And they had become officers after barely six months of military training, whereas those of us who had been sent to Sandhurst had had to do two long years to earn the Queen’s Commission. The implications were quite – and most disturbing. Not only had these northerners become commissioned officers before we were half-way through our first year at Sandhurst, they had all risen to the enviable rank of Captain before we could even appear at the sovereign’s parade which served essentially as prerequisite for our passing out as Second Lieutenants.” ---- Col. Ben Gbulie in “Nigeria’s Five Majors, pages 12 – 13 Published 1981. “We don’t have original copy of Buhari’s result – Army”. “Following the unending controversy over the possession of a secondary school certificate by the All Progressive Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Major General Muhammadu Buhari,l the army Tuesday cleared the air saying, “The Nigerian Army does not have the original copy of his West African Examination Council result or certified true copy.” ---- Vanguard News Tuesday January 20, 2015.
