Why would anybody respect a dumbass African who does not know what he\she wants? When Africans arrogate "Black" to themselves as an identity, anybody with grain of brain cell should not respect them. I thought there will be a change of stream of thought among Africans when they traveled to enlightened society but being wrong is human. Africans would vote a person who promised to kill them but smiled as jackass at them.

If APC is still winning elections in Yoruba land, it means Buhari and APC are performing better than projected in the Yoruba media.

blackpanda:
I have been reading comments from various lawyers and SANs across the country, and the truth is none of them can point to any section of the constitution that says the national assembly can summon the President at will. There is simply no such provision in our constitution. The framers of the constitution made the President the single most powerful entity on the planet.


Those comparing nigeria to america are only delusional. American constitution is even worse. The congress can't even summon cabinet officers let alone the President.


All our media-obssessed political lawyers especially Ozhekome have laid out so far seems to be gibberish with nothing concrete. They should simply show us the constitution provision that mandates the president to appear at the national assembly whenever they call. And if he doesn't can they sue him to Court


I stand to be corrected though

Arrant nonsense!!! Nobody is above the law. The NASS within its investigative powers has the right to summon anybody however not everybody can appear in person.

This dumbass fool is among the people who run Mines and Steel Development. What project has his department completed which is being denied or assumed by the southeastern governors? Sometimes I wonder why Africans should demand any from of respect from the Americans, Europeans and Asians.

helinues:


Hope this won't make some people to be in severe pain...

Waiting to read words like Photoshop

You one good reason among many reasons Nigeria is backward. Most Nigerians do not have either investigative mind or eye. Please take a good look at the post. The two officers had inscription which says "United States Army" however Buhari has only "Nigeria" not Nigerian Army. Buhari went to Carlisle, PA as an observer not as a student. Muhammadu Buhari remains one of the reasons January 15, 1966 coup was precipitated.

If you slaughter meritocracy on the altar of tribalism and religious bigotry, that's what you get

There was no iota of tribal bone in Biafra. Most field commanders in Biafra were people from the minority groups.

Where is the picture of the arrested policemen In sane clans, thier pics will be review to the public.
The below are pics of police men who murder George Floyd.

Ordinary name is hard for the police HQ to publish talk less of pictures.

The state is blessed, but the bad leaders there are something else. And I Aba is Ngwa not Ukwa, ukwa is very different from Ngwa, don't join the two groups together again. Ukwa has more oil than pH but Ukwa has nothing, no road, no water, no health care facilities, no good school, nothing to show as an oil producing area. The Nddc building there is just like a private house, the fmr Senate President is from there ( though he's useless ). The politicians from there are all useless and greedy, they have been in gov't from 1900s till now, nothing to show except to come there with big SUVs and excorts. Tell your governor to do something for them... Nddc is there only saviour, no federal or state projects there. And the governor always visits his friends there, including some ministers and other state governors, they have friends from there but they ain't telling there friends to do something about their area. THEY HAVE NONSENSE INFLUENCIAL MEN

The most annoying thing remains the loudmouths who navigate to nairaland to spew crap about what they know nothing about the subject. The OML 11, which consisted entire Ogoni, Opu obu (Opobo), Ndi Ndoni (Andoni), Ikwerre land Obigbo and Owaza, produces the most onshore crude oil in Nigeria. Owaza in Ukwa West LGA produces more than three-quarters of total production of this area. Owaza oil fields started production of crude oil few years after Oloibiri. Today, Oloibiri is dead and dry. I guess the Nigeria\Biafra war remains the drawback. Ndigbo do not want to force their hands on crude oil production and its dividends because it could lead to another civil war. However such weak indulgence has left the Igbo land deprived of what is due to them. I say it is the high time Ndigbo demanded what is due to them and if another war comes out of such endeavor so be it.

It is all about the belief of Thivenubu which remains silly. Beliefs are not facts and far from reality. Besides, Thivenubu is a typical Yoruba. A revolving door is even better than the likes of Tinubu because the door is hinged to the wall.

vickydevoka:
Names like Ali, agbo, idoko, ujah n udeh can be found in Enugu cause de share boundary with de North. Dats y most of my Enugu friends look northerner n re dark in complexion (na God create Dem).
Same thing apply to Abia state especially abriba people de answer name like ena, ekpie, n umo cause de share boundary with akwaibom

In this case, the Ali can be Ala or Ani. It could have been abbreviated from Alichi, Alioma or even Alilionwu. Why are some goons so twisted because of Ali. Does the word Ali an exclusive domain of northern region of Nigeria?

Nonybb:
So Igbo man is called Ali? Umu idioooots

Yes, Igbo can be called Ali. I guess you are the basement ediota in this discuss. Ali, Ala and Ani are in Igbo words. He may have been Alioma, Alilionwu or Alichi and he decided to abbreviate. Nwali or Nwala or Nwani does not mean Muslim. The idiocy to run into flimsy and erroneous judgment have proven the drawback of most Africans.

SaintBishop:
Is there any tribe in Rivers that goes by the name igbo?

The fact remains there is no original tribe in Rivers State except Igbo. Any other assumed tribe is either the creation of the Portuguese or immigrant.

Bkayyy:
Very misleading thread. His grandfather was a percussionist to Celestine Ukwu not Celestine Ukwu himself

When poster wrote "Was from nd" in small letters, I ceased to read. I guess the "nd" remotely translates to Niger Delta. Celestine Ukwu was never from Niger Delta.

Any so-called Nigerians who remotely thought northern region of Nigeria has turned against Muhammadu Buhari is a basement fool. Buhari and elites of northern region are Boko Haram and Boko Haram is northern region of Nigeria.

tit:
Biobakumo = Biobarakumadegi?
how can this be misspelling?
judge done smoke gbana

The certificates might have not been forged instead there were more one person with Degi as a name that took the exams. This Degi of a guy is an old school trickster.

Orjioorji:
No tribe in Nigeria is hundred percent honest every tribe have their flows , Igbo man can never be honest when money is involve, Hausa man can't be trusted in term of religion and ethnicity. Yoruba man can't be honest even if you are a Yoruba he will always backstabbed you. But the worst tribe is Idoma they and Tiv they are animals.

Nigeria has been led by the so-called honest ethnicities since few years after its independence yet loot of money is all time high. Igbo man had been on top things in Nigeria, embezzlement would have been reduced to nothing.

Charleys:
The ijaw man followed by the jukun .

Ijo are delusional land grabbers and the worst denial artists. Jukun foolishly pander to their masters therefore make them easy tool of choice.

Taba21:
Is Delta state south east igbos or Niger Delta?
You guys need more education in advance.

Niger Delta is a mere nomenclatural crap. It is not culturally or statutorily recognized. It is mere geographical expression. I guess you need any form of education to realize there is nothing such as "South east Igbo". What a dunce.

forgiveness:
1 & 2. Best universities in Nigeria by Times Higher education

3 & 4. Best universities in Africa by Times Higher education

With all the so-called best universities, Yoruba had been unable to bring down the academic record set at University of Ife by an Hausa man.

LukasPodolski:
still doesn't add up, I can, in nearest future say "President Macron" branched my house when he visited Nigeria.. hahah.

more like saying "Ojukwu's interview where he said he released Awolowo" is more valid than.

the Pictorial and Visual evidence of Gowon releasing Awolowo + Calabar prison guard boss attesting to the fact that he released Awolowo on the order of Gowon.

Awolowo never even said Gowon released him from Calabar prison because he knew Gowon's authority did not go beyond Ore. Ojukwu was the Military Governor of eastern region of Nigeria which Calabar was an integral part. In addition, Ojukwu did not recognize Gowon as anything. Now back the subject matter, Azikwe was the President of Nigeria and Mbazulike Amaechi was a minister of state. They did not need any favor from a fugitive such as Nelson Mandela but a show of support against the government of Republic of South Africa.

ngadaAwo:
lol I knew it.

i know that yeroba Muslims will highjack Amotekun to bring Sharia Hisbah to yeroba land.

real Omoluabis ronu!
you guys have been invaded right under your nose

real Omoluabis should rise against this
They should stop recruiting yeroba Muslims into Amotekun.
yeroba Muslims are not real yerobas but immigrants from Futa Jalon that settled in southwest.

Most Yoruba governors are Muslim and masterminded the formation of Amotekun. Therefore it will amount to a usual Yoruba trickery to allege "highjack" of Amotakun to bring Sharia Hisbah to Yoruba land. Amotekun had been all along a Sharia Hisbah.

LukasPodolski:
information from IPOB bureau of statistics, we understand that Ibos loves taking the glory especially the one they never worked for.
recently in a bid to console yourselves for your political doom, you guys have been claiming that Olusegun Aremu Obasanjo is from Onitsha... Hahaha, laughable.

we ain't going to eat that poo, why was there no report from mainstream media apart from a verbal records from one unknown Mbazulike Amaechi

just seeing this name for the first time sef..

You are an intellectual midget. Honestly, I do not think you belonged to this discussion. Are you still a patron of the lame media and fake news? RSA egged on by the British were in search of Nelson Mandela. How could your so-called main media embarrass British government by publishing the where about of Nelson Mandela who had been hiding under their nose in Nigeria?

LukasPodolski:
Sir, Antonio Dehinde Fernandez, who was far richer, more relevant and travelled wider than any person from Anambra, not even the over hyped Odumegwu Senior.


A whole Nelson Mandela, the most respected figure in Africa and one of the most respected in the whole world visited him in his house.

Shut up your putrid mouth. Learn to walk before you run. When Nelson Mandela was a fugitive, he was hid and fed in Awka, Anambra State. I never talked about returnees as the subject matter is strictly for native Nigerians.

I may be wrong, but there are ELEMENTS OF TRUTH in all that I have posted.

What of Igbo in Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Benue, Cross River, Kogi and Edo States? You listed full and partial Igbo states therefore should have included the ones listed now. I do know your endeavor is very mischievous in outlook and also lacks average intellect.

LukasPodolski:
Why not proof him wrong? Instead of ranting.

I challenge you to make a formation for Anambra like he did for Ogun.. oya, I hope you accept the challenge.

You can do it, you can also create a thread to counter his formation and tag me.

I will be waiting.

When Nigeria was Nigeria before the military started giving wealth to the few as a front, who and what did Ogun produce?

Mabizela:
OP you are seriously sick and you don't know. how is Ogun state better than The great Anambra state. is there any state in Nigeria that can challenge Anambra in anything. OP how I wish I can locate you and land a heavy knock on that your cone head

Please do not pay any mind to the jackass.

Maduawuchukwu:
These fools have come again. IPOB leave Ikwerre people alone. Na by force? You have been claiming that Biafra will have freedom for all ethnic groups located within it but this your attachee by force shows you guys will suffocate the SS in your increasingly utopian country.

Shut up your putrid mouth. Is Obigbo an Ikwerre land? Why did stupid Ikwerre airhead in Wikeren assault Obigbo with the help of Fulani herdsmen in Nigerian army uniform?

ThatFairGuy1:
I'm wondering how our brother from the far East would have responded to this inscription if this were to come from another Region.

I agreed however your grammar also left much to be desired.

Ctorch:
The Ngwa are Igbos. The Ikwerre are Igbos. They are offsprings of the same father. So the statement attributed to His Excellency, Barrister Nyesom Wike, Governor of Rivers State was shocking. He said an illustrious Igbo son, and I believe he was referring to the Honorable Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi, was only claiming to be Igbo to further his ambition of becoming Nigerian president come 2023. Wike further disclaimed being Igbo himself.



Patriot Emmanuel Aguma was former Mayor of Port Harcourt. As Principal of St John College, Diobu, he was the first Ikwerre to head any college. One of six pre-independence Ikwerre University graduates, former administrator of Port Harcourt Province in the defunct Peoples Republic of Biafra, first Ikwere minister in 1979, Aguma remained a member of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.

Chief Emmanuel Aguma was not a mere member of Ohanaeze Ndigbo but a member of the founding father of the organization the along with Senator Francis Ella of Omoku, Dr Ekwife, Nwodo, Nwabueze etc

Agreed, Wike has the right to hold any view so far as it is within the ambit of the law and not counter-productive. He can define himself in any manner he deems fit. But Amaechi, who holds the traditional chieftaincy title of ”Ochi Ariri Ikwerre,” meaning the Defender of Ikwerre in Times of Difficulty, also has the same right to see and define himself as Igbo. Wike does not enjoy the prerogative of determining himself and at the same time defining others.

Amaechi was former National President of the National Union of Rivers State Students, NURSS. He was former Speaker of Rivers House of Assembly, Chairman of the Conference of Speakers in Nigeria, two-term governor of Rivers, Chairman of the Governors Forum of Nigeria, GFN, and two-term Minister of Transportation. He is the first Nigerian to be appointed Minister of Transportation and first Ikwerre to be appointed full-fledged Grade A minister. As an Ikwerre, I am proud of Amaechi. As an Igbo, I am also proud of him.

The honor of being first Nigerian to be appointed Minister of Transportation goes to Barr. Ray Amanze Njoku. Amaechi might have been the first Ikwerre to be appointed Minister of Transportation but Nigerian.
