The killer of Niger Delta dream and architect of the bloody pogroms on his people with his refusal to prosecute his coup plotting brothers .

Please get educated. You still wallow in a stack ignorance. What a dunce.

Nigeria came out of the Civil War as a Nation after the War had been won. You may not agree but that was what happened after people fought and died for it because of the Faith they had that it was the Nation that the Almighty had given them.

Nigeria cannot be a nation. War does not make or unmake a nation state.

I am not impressed at all. Nigeria looks like a test bed. The most of the poses do not aptly interpret the situation. One freaking soldier stood on an APC with hands in his pockets. I dig the sailor on the gun boat with anti-aircraft gun. She really posed for the moment. Anyway sailors seemed to have something up against the infantry and the flyers.

In all honesty, he's far more better than those that didn't share even as Christmas or birthday gift

This assertion is very ridiculous. Those who did not share the COVID-19 palliatives as Christmas gifts are better than this goon who played on the peoples' intelligence or lack thereof.

In bold: what relationship has being provincial capital got with level of urban development? Are you not a nit wit? Calabar was once the capital of Nigeria before Lagos and Abuja.

Get the aerial maps of Owerri, Orlu and Okigwe before 1976 when Owerri was made state capital, the maps shall show you that there were little differences in the levels of urban development between Owerri, Orlu and Okigwe then.

Owerri used locating all tertiary education institutions in Imo in Owerri to ride far ahead of Orlu in modern development

As for location, Orlu is closer to Onitsha and Nnewi than Owerri. Owerri and Orlu trade with Onitsha.
Despite the evil wishes of people like you in Imo state, the Imo International market in Orlu has thrived, and even draws customers from Owerri due to cheaper prices in Orlu deriving from closeness to Onitsha.

Calabar was never a capital of Nigeria. Calabar can share the same rank with Lokoja and Zungeru as the administrative headquarters of Northern Protectorate. Calabar was to southern protectorate what Lokoja and Zungeru were to northern protectorate. Only goons in Nigeria cannot differentiate Nigeria and Protectorate. Only Owerri can be mentioned in the same sentence with Onicha when provincial topic is being discussed. There is no trunk A road that linked Onicha with Orlu. As a poster indicated in a previous post, Owerri had major linkage with three or four states.

It is very unusual the loudmouths kept mum.

So says an Abokaku-cast piglet who can't think for himself always edit someone else comment to sound intelligent ...but ends up sounding stupid

I had rather remain a dunce than to edit your craps to sound intelligent. Have you heard that it better to raise a child than to fix a broken man at forty such as you? It is only in a shithole called Nigeria where an airhead such as you fans him\herself as relevant and editable.

Please folks check if Rwanda is a landlocked country and has crude oil in abundance.

Amah70:
London is not too developed more than Manchester, Sheffield, or Birmingham.

Washington DC is not better developed than New York City, Chicago or Las Vegas.

States? Tallahassee is the small capital city of Florida state, nowhere compared in development to mega city of Miami in Florida state.
Europeans and Americans don’t have block heads like you clowning here with belief that because a place (Owerri) was named capital city, therefore governments must use nearly all the funds of the state to develop the state capital (Owerri)to the exclusion of other urban towns ( Orlu and Okigwe) and rest of the state.

I really hate when deluded Nigerians use US as example of their skewed logic. Americans will never come to forum to protest the development of Rockville instead of Silver Spring. Rockville has the campus for Montgomery College while the main campus sits at Takoma Park City. However Silver Spring is larger than Rockville which is the government seat of the County Council. However Americans will argue whatever is due to Rockville as the headquarter of Montgomery County should be given to it while what is due to Silver Spring should be equally given to it. The same goes to Upper Marlboro and New Carrollton in Prince Georges County. It is unfortunate most Nigerians waste other peoples' time in their silly comparison of Apples and Oranges. Washington, DC and New York City are not in the same local administrative District. I guess your silly comparison should have been limited to Albany and New York City as both are housed under New York State. Again Owerri is more strategically placed than backwater called Orlu.

Amah70:
The fast development of Owerri is derived from having all tertiary education institutions - futo, Imsu, aifce, nekedepoly, fercolat - in or nearest Owerri, and even imopolytechnic closest to Owerri; not that because Owerri is state capital.


You are not ashamed that in a state created for development of all its parts, you sing the song of obodo n’ile emepechana ofodu Orlu and Okigwe as reason why Orlu and Okigwe can’t develop like Owerri? You do every fight to negate modern development outside Owerri.

Is Orlu still a mere division under Owerri if it once was?
Were Warri and Agbor, once under Asaba division, but these cities are rapidly developing like Asaba?
Even if it is, does that warrant Owerri seizing all government institutions that induce modern development wherever located?

You and your most primitive logic - as usual.

In your silly figment of imagination, you moronically insinuated that citing of most tertiary institutions in Owerri amounts to prostitution racket. Are you not a dumbass to want such prostitution racket in your backwater called Orlu? When people play stupid, it normal to face then with equal amount of stupidity. Your approach to Imo State development or lack thereof is imbecilic at best. It is an act of idiocy to come for equity without clean hands.

The bolded indicated you are punching above your intellectual weight class. Warri has never being under Asaba for anything. Warri and Benin were among the provinces of southern protectorate when Lagos was a colony. In fact, Asaba was under Benin province.

FACE:
Biko, this whining is becoming redundant. How many tertiary institutions in Owerri are owned by the state government? Imo State University, which other one?

This line of arguement is why Nigeria refused to invest in education, choosing the easier route of quota system, depriving other people in order to accommodate others instead of expanding the facilities to other areas.

Why do you want the state government to relocate schools from Owerri to Orlu rather than arguing for a University to be brought closer home to your Orlu?

Why should Owerri lose those institutions to Orlu in particular? Why not to Mbaise or Okigwe?

By your own warped thinking, a University in Orlu would lead to a new prostitution racketeering in Orlu isn't it? After all, high institutions are just sex trading markets, not so? So why are you asking for this prostitution racket to be extended to Orlu? What about Okigwe, Mbaise, Mbano, Ohaji, Oguta, Obowo, etc?

Men like you are putting their hard earned money on the ground and investing as they deem fit and all you can do is to carry on whining like an entitled brat. I pity your successful neighbours with the amount of jealousy they must be enduring from you.

Simple logic!!!! Bro the dude you responded with above post is one of the reasons Europeans, Americans and Asian believed Africans do not think.

I am an ABOBAKU piglet.....

The above crap from a delusional poster has been correctly fixed.

unatryooh:
She should shut up and stop being ridiculous.

so shoving snow that takes less than 2 minutes is so life crushing that she sees it as a sacrifice?

Some people really knows how to nag.

If her full senses were working she would have known that people have been living there and other colder places for thousands of years. Even with the cold there are people who would still leave a safe warm climate and migrate to colder regions.

If not that she is chasing clout, she would have known that one of the "worst" places to live in is the tropical weather. Infested with bugs, mosquitoes, venomous reptiles and other disease carrying rodents ( almost all year round) before crying over cold weather that last not more than 6 months all together in a year.

She should stop nagging and come home, after all even with insecurity that she is complaining about, 200 millions Nigerians are still living in Naija.

The bolded is a rant out of stack ignorance. By the way, which snow can you shove in less than 2 minutes? I guess a Nigerian snow.

Freestainworld:
This people no longer see the Yorubas as something unlike the way they take the Igbos seriously, it's high time the Yoruba nation stand to their ground, a terrorist and an uncircumcised fool can't be talking to a Yoruba nation like that.

If you were in their shoes, would you have taken Yoruba people as something other than betrayal artists? This reminds me of the quotation accredited to Gen. Ibrahim Babangida.

Juliusmalema:
How will they secede when they have no oil, so it is a mere threat.

This is a plain truth!!!!

Zooposki:
By the time all these black African men realize that the black woman is God, it will be too late for them. They should keep on oppressing the women, especially the Muslims.

If you are qualified to comment on this issue, you would not have used the word, "Black" to describe humans.

adadike:
Asking innocent school children to lie bikonu? What a terrible country with terrible leaders?

Ada Madu my sister , it does not take the interview of the young boy to realize the whole shenanigan of Boko Haram's kidnap of the young boys was staged. The political elites from northern region of Nigeria would say or do anything to look politically relevance in the shithole called Nigeria. They have forced many minorities from southern region of Nigeria to deny their ancestry while they are busy stealing every crude oil block therein the so-called Niger Delta.

Ofemannnu:
ABOBAKU logic.
Adefuye,a single man opposed it and Afenifere who were more supported it but your ABOBAKU mind and heart still do not understand... Tueh for your ABOBAKU lineage.

Fixed

DuBLINGreenb:
No.

Simple question, simple answer.

Please who is?

Sammy07:
Lol, Ondo State also has gas.(Untapped one)
And BTW if we notice our (SW) gas won't be enough.
we have our yoruba brothers controlling some states in Benin Republic.
We can tap from there. even Togo

The WEST are self sufficient.

Anybody who says Ondo State has crude oil or even gas should be jailed. The crude oil community in Ondo State was old Bendal State community that Obasanjo and Nasir ceded to Ondo State during silly pretense of boundary adjustment. I ask what was the logical reason for boundary adjustment in a country such as Nigeria?

tutudesz:
Use Google for a knowledge I experience 1st hand or use Google to remind the police man breaking doors of my family house and burning it down, because my uncle was fighting for Resource control

Look pal, my support for Republic of Igbo land does not appear like a person who wants to settle with silly derivation percentile. I want total ownership of the resource in Igbo land period.

tutudesz:
Yeah I know has the highest gas reserve in Nigeria and The most oil producing communities in Rivers State is in Oginni land, follow by Ijaw communities.
Please provide proof that Igbos are in support of resource control how many state are oil producing state in South East Compare that to a region with 100 oil producing state.

The bolded showed again you are one of the expendables from Rivers State. OML 11, is the largest crude oil communities in Rivers State and some part of Abia State. OML 11 comprised Ogoni, Ikwerre land, Opu Obu (Opobo), Nkoro, Andoni, Obigbo and Owaza. Owaza is the largest crude oil producing community in OML 11 is seated in Abia State. The Chairperson of council of traditional rulers among the oil producing communities in OML 11 is from Etitioha Owaza, Abia State. Ijo has little or no Onshore crude oil field. The so-called Oloibiri has been capped and returned to the forest. Owaza oil fields started in 1958 two years after Oloibiri yet going stronger. Anybody who spewed the bolded crap in the above post has no seat in this discussion. Most of the Ogoni wells in OML 11 have run dry. Recently, Rivers State govt. has acquired the Ogoni oil fields in OML 11.

Am still waiting for you to name the men wearing Timberland from South East who spearheaded the fight for derivation.

You are really an intellectual midget. In your frame of mind, you expect me to list names as in measuring something, right?

tutudesz:
Am not well inform Adefuye(South West) and South East delegates were always in EK Clark house in Abuja during the national conference, meeting on how to speak with one voice.
Every Region will benefit less with 25% derivation going to South South. When the issue of Zamfara gold issue came up, did any Senator speak up from South East or South West Did any Senator support Omo Agege when he spoke up
It just sad that South South is feeding a ungrateful country.

Who the hell is Omo Agege? Yesterday's senator in the shithole called Nigeria is practically nobody.

Do you mean Edwin Clark, a noted house boy to the political elites from northern region of Nigeria? EK Clark was compromised in 1967 therefore had no leverage to talk about derivation. You seem not to understand Nigeria.

Amah70:
If you are not bothered by this tag in Owerri the prostitution capital of Nigeria, I am bothered because I have Owerri as my state capital.

If at all you are bothered about the unfounded tag of Owerri as prostitution capital of Nigeria, it is hellishly hypocritical. You and ilk from certain backwater in Imo State were the painters who had continued to paint Owerri in such shade. A street or an area in Lagos has more hotels than all the hotels in Imo State include the few in the backyard called Orlu.

Amah70:
What criterion qualifies Owerri to host Imo state university after hosting FUTO, AIFCE?

Edo, Anambra, Abia, in fact, more than 80% of Nigeria’s states don’t have their state university in the state capital.

Imo state university permanent location has no business with Owerri if Imo state is to be for all of us. Take your blackmail to the birds of the air.


Why Mbaise? Mbaise is in Owerri senatorial zone.


Okigwe? Okigwe has a nearby ABSU in Uturu-Okigwe, as well as IMSU Engineering faculty.
Okigwe is 6 LGAs.


Orlu with 12 LGAs has no multi faculty government university. You must be living in Mars if you don’t understand that an area as large as Orlu senatorial district with its population needs a multi faculty government university to jumpstart human and economic development in the area.
Instead of support for the needful to be done - locate IMSU permanent in Orlu zone - and diminish the picture of Owerri as prostitution capital of Nigeria - you write to sustain the prostitution business in Owerri.

Orlu was a mere division under Owerri province with Owerri equally as a division. Owerri is strategically better placed than Orlu. As for the LGAs, Ohaji is closer to Owerri than Orlu yet Orlu claimed Ohaji-Egbema, Oguta etc to be under Orlu in order to help Orlu produce countless and worthless governors in Imo State. You cannot eat your cake and have it. I guess prostitution is not the oldest profession known to human beings for nothing. There is one song we use to sing when we were kids. It is a remix from Inyang Henshaw album. Obodo nghile emehechala ofudu Okigwe na Orlu.......

tutudesz:
All region, whether South West, South East, North Central, North East is against the South South on resource control. The PIB is yet to be passed for years, because it will give oil producing communities and state more money.

You have written like a child. The fight for derivation control was spearheaded by men of timber from south east. Be mindful southeast has a considerable amount of crude oil. The issue revolved around offshore crude oil. South east staged a good fight to secure 13% presently enjoyed by some dirty ass goons in Nigeria.

mightyhazel:
Ijaws in the house? Anyone?

Ijo in the house you asked? House boys always enjoy the company of gossipers. If the dude had said Ndigbo were the main reason Ijo and other southern minorities in the southern region of Nigeria lagged in anything human endeavor, they would have been out with their dirty mouths spew crap.

Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos 

Senator Anthony Adefuye, a Third Republic senator and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Thursday blasted Afenifere, pan Yoruba socio-political organisation for claiming he was distorting history over his statement on former President Olusegun Obasanjo's heritage.

Adefuye in an interview with Daily Independent had said Obasanjo is an Igboman with an Igbo father from Anambra state while his mother was from Abeokuta in Ogun state.

Yinka Odumakin, Afenifere's National Publicity Secretary however said described Adefuye's statement as a "twisted and perverted logic".

He also said some Yoruba sons are trying to join others to denigrate the heritage of the former president in a bid to advance their political interests.

Speaking with our correspondent on Thursday, Adefuye said he parted ways with Afenifere leaders because they are not honest people.

Adefuye who accused them of cheating the late Funso Williams also added that Afenifere leaders are embittered against him for supporting Obasanjo in the 1999 presidential election.

He said "Odumakin is a man who talks for what he will get from what he says. He knows no facts. The only sin I committed against Afenifere was that I supported Obasanjo during the 1999 presidential election".

"At that time, they also cheated late Funsho Williams and so I decided not to work with them. I have just been keeping quiet not because we don't know them. We know them very well. The problems they are facing now, they caused it themselves".

"So, that is why they have no followership anymore. Before it is the party that Afenifere supports that wins election but today, when they are in any political party, nobody is there and they lose because they are never honest. They are not honest people. They don't speak the truth".

"When we were in the 2014 National conference, that was why some of them went and take money from President Goodluck Jonathan and said that he should make derivation 25 percent. I asked, if you make derivation 25 percent, how does that save we Yorubas that have no oil? When my children will come and read in history that I was part of the people that said derivation should go to Ijaw people?".

The elderstatesman also backed his claim that restated Obasanjo is not a Yoruba man with an incident that happened in 1999 shortly after Obasanjo's victory in the 1999 presidential election.

"When we were campaigning for him, most of the time I was with him in Ota, Ogun state. After he won the presidential election in 1999, this delegation came from Anambra state and they said they wanted to see him as their son who has just won election".

"Obasanjo refused and didn't allow them to enter that day. I was with him and was pleading with him to allow them to enter and hear what they wanted to say but he refused. The national dailies flew it the next day. I know Obasanjo very well so I know what I'm talking about" Adefuye said.

Truth in Nigeria usually come out through an unusual form or way. Anybody with little sense in Nigeria knows Yoruba land has no crude oil. In addition, Yoruba would say or do anything to achieve a cheap political point. Yoruba do not want any good services or derivation to go to Ijo. It is very clear why some of the goons from Yoruba shout about land lock of and no crude oil in Igbo land. The so-called minorities from southern Nigeria should by now know who really fan your interest in Nigeria.
