dogmax: Mazi Uche Mefor has declared IPOB a terrorist group.....
The last time I check though, Uche Mefor was an ordinary citizen of the shithole called Nigeria. Whatever Uche Mefor says does not worth more than his putrid mouth. Does Uche Mefor amount to anything in the shithole called Nigeria?
BabaOwen: I've been to most part of the South East, the place is nothing to write home about. They can only lie to people that have not been to their states in the south east.
There is absolutely nothing there.
When were you in South East? Please give dates to make intellectual sense. I went to Ota in 1978 through 80, it was nothing but a village. At the same period of time, I landed at Osogbo and Ogbomosho. One or two things kept me in these ghettos for more than two days. These places were One-Street village like Abeokuta in the same period of time. I would have kept Osogbo and Ogbomosho as a national museum.
Fastnewsnigeria: Biafra Group has blasted Governor Wike, telling him that he don't know his tribe.
The group described as false Wike’s claims that the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, was trying to rename the State.
In a statement signed by the Deputy National Leader of BNL and Head of Operations, BBS Media, Ebuta Akor Takon, the group described the Governor as a talkative who lacks focus.
BNL accused Wike of trying to create ethnic tension in the State, adding that the Governor who denied being Igbo does not know the history of Rivers State and Niger Delta as a region.
The group pointed out that it was not possible for any group to rename a town if the indigenes of such town are not involved.
“The Governor does not have a tribe and acts as confused person,” the group said, insisting that the, “Niger Delta region of today includes Imo and Abia and they joined region same day Edo, Ondo, Cross River and Akwa Ibom States were included.
“We were never part of Niger Delta, it is an Ijaw region by geographical definition, it was Obasanjo that created this confusion when he added other areas as part of the region.
“If Wike said he has found a new ethnic group, and that he is not from Igbo because they told him that Ikwere is from Benin, it’s fine.
“But then, he shouldn’t forget that Late Oba of Benin rejected the claim, saying that the Benin Kingdom does not have any record showing that Ikwere migrated from Benin. They do not speak related language or practice the same culture.
“So you can see he doesn’t know anything, and he is a Governor. He merely relied on what some of the elders in Rivers State told him, and these were the same elders that looted Igbo property during the war.
If Late Oba of Benin rejected the claim, there must be plain truth in his decision. It must be recall that Late Oba of Benin was once a secretary to Ahoada Division under Owerri Province which oversaw the administrative wellbeing of half of Old Rivers State which included entire Ikwerre land, Eleme and Opu Obu (Opobo), etc.
shehuolayinka: The hypocrite minimises his own flaws and makes allowances for imperfections while homing in on and exaggerating the problems of another. We have an even distribution of hypocrites among all sections of the country. But I think there is a more bubbling joint of whited sepulchres in the south-east. Yes, a host of people lost in gyrations of affected piety and plaster saints who capitalise and summarise their troubles with third-party headlines. They are never responsible for own their problems; there is always someone or some people in the north, south-west or south-south to blame. Even the gully erosion ravaging my area in Anambra is blamed on exteriorised agents.
When are we going to take responsibility for our troubles? When are we going to face up to the adversaries within – not in the north or south-west? And when are we going to call out corruption by our own?
We are fixated on the Bola Tinubu corruption trope, but our own people made flatulent by loot we palliate the enormity of their malfeasance. A former governor of Abia state was jailed for alleged N7.65 billion fraud. He was alleged to have magicked the contents of Abia state treasury into his private vault. But after he was released from prison, there was a carnival in the streets of Abia to welcome him – the same people he allegedly stole from. The same former governor has enjoyed canonisation by his people and even projected by them as a ‘’worthy son’’ to replace President Buhari in 2023.
Hypocrites! Tinubu in Lagos is a bigger headache to Okoye in Owerri than the ruins of Imo state? We are more concerned about the acts of tyranny in faraway Kaduna under Nasir el-Rufai than the attempts at autocracy in Imo.
Governors in the south-east have largely escaped outrage and social media justice, because the citizens of the region concern themselves with amplifying the troubles of the north, while glossing over the cancer ravaging the area. We cavort giddily to sit in parliament on issues affecting the north while our own problems are mitigated – and most times totally ignored.
In Anambra, for instance, there are over 1,000 gully erosion sites. About 70 percent of the land in the state is witnessing chronic denudation. Statistics show the environmental peril is devouring Aguata/Orumba local government areas, which have more than 78 gullies; Nnewi, (60 cavities); Njikoka/Aniocha, (50 gullies); Idemili, (46 dangerous openings); Ihiala, (40 gullies); Awka, (30 cavities); Onitsha, (22 gullies); and Anambra/Oyi, (16 gullies).
Many citizens of Anambra have lost valuable property to this creeping violator of nature. This monster has remained untamed. Now, 70 percent of land in the state is under threat! And there are gloomy projections that this intruder could overrun the state in the next few years. Yet no deliberate and exigent plan to salvage what is left. No alarm! No emergency! It is like we are waiting for the inexorable doomsday.
One wonders who this fool refers as "We" in the above trash. South-east is a geopolitical entity in the shithole called Nigeria and cannot amount to "We" as the basement fool intends to make us believe. Most Nigerians must aspire to take responsibility of the figment of their silly imagination. How this fool arrived at the "We' crap, I do not know. I do not know who the hell is Tinubu and wish not to know about him\her in any capacity. I guess my line of thought is the same among Ndigbo. If the moronic writer seemed to be fixated with Tinubu, he\she should deal with it in the absence of dragging south-east into his\her foolish daydreams of Tinubu. Tinubu can become the president of Nigeria tomorrow, I shall not give a ratass. Besides the dumbass from Katsina State is currently sleepwalking as the president of the shithole called Nigeria. In fact, I had taken Tinubu over the dunce who currently occupy the position of presidency in the shithole called Nigeria.
dogmax: I have made lots of research on MNK for a period of time and I discovered that he has never worked in any firm nor owned any business entity. His late father owned no company. So what's his source of income? He is an intelligent young man no doubt but IPOB needs to look beyond what they were told by this young man about Biafra and ask some necessary question on Mazi Uchr Mefor is against way of leadership because all I see in him is Yahoo things. Don't be a blind fellower please
Job experience is not a pre-requisite for revolution. Anybody can lead group of agitators for secession. Unfortunately Uche Mefor was dumb enough not realize IPOB is not a corporate entity. Any group which runs a clandestine business does not have a standard procedure for running the show. The joke on Uche Mefor who was completely ignorant of the business before he foolishly joined.
Ndigbo can be many things to different people but certainly idiots. The single act of your husband, Emeka Ojukwu, found Ndigbo in this present predicament. If Ojukwu did not foolishly appoint Banjo as the command of 101 Bridage, the Nigeria\Biafra war would have a different outcome.
GBTYO: It wasn't Trump but the deep state swamp creatures from the Obama and Clinton era whom your Buhari negotiated the purchase of these aircrafts from an American Pentagon contractor instead of directly going to Brazil .
This deal was kickback for the Obama, Clinton and DNC crooks for propping and supporting Buhari in 2015.
The only time it will get to Trump is for final approval of the arms trade which was ratified and submitted by Obama swamp holdovers to Trump.
The whole deal stinks. And this runway clause is another fleecing. Is the US responsible for it's maintainace and operation?
Only God knows how many crooked deals Obama and Clinton are bennefiting from this useless APC govt.
Remember also that Buhari and the APC donated hefty sums to the Clinton presidential campaign .
Never knew you still have few brain cells to be articulate. Even at this point, Trump gave Nigerian government the option to purchase Helicopter gunships instead of Super Tucano.
mvem: The purchase was made in 2018...Trump was president then
Trump wanted the Nigerian government to purchase Helicopter gunship instead. However Nigerian government had stated purchase arrangement of Super Tucano with previous US government led by Obama.
Most Nigerians are dumbass fools. Religion aside, it is imperative on these dingbats to review the school of thoughts behind the origin of "Black Friday".
Misterdhee1: The question is - how do we stop the support "aboki agenda.?" The average yoruba man wants a switch back to regionalism. Can you please state the feasible thing the average igbo man wants? Or you guys seemingly want yorubas to support your fight for dominance with the north to push the narrative in your favor? There has to be a clear defined objective to warrant the so called "southern unity."
Simple disintegration of the shithole called Nigeria to form nation states. This will allow clean break from anything Nigeria. Regionalism you seemed to embrace remains Nigeria.
You still get mouth to yarn dust you suppose hide your head in shame and disgrace
continue dey do igbo vs yoruba and childish bigotry as na watin you come dis life come do wey your mate dey think of beneficiary things wey dem go use their brains do
i sure se if to se i engage you in your lazyman tribal bullcrap you for don release akamu already
I stand unshaken by the my question. There was nothing tribal about a simple inquiry. For the sake of posterity, is it Yoruba in pajamas or members of IPOO (indigenous People of Oduduwa) tribal? I guess in Nigeria, truth is always bitter.
Farki: Was every Yoruba person a soldier, did every igbo man fight for Biafra? The entire Edo nation did not fight for Biafra, the entire Ijaw nation didn't either but they aren't hated for it.
Despite you saying this some proBiafrans will use the actions of Awolowo and Akintola to condemn the entire Yoruba race when they are just "one or two people". They remain silent when it comes to Azikiwe's opposition to secession and Daniel Kanu's support for Abacha.
Can you honestly state Yoruba supported Biafra during Nigeria\Biafra war? No sane Nigerian will even insinuate such a crap. Entire western region of Nigeria sided with northern region of Nigeria to prosecute war against eastern region period. There is no twist of words or phrases that can change the reality.
SavageResponse: If you don't know something just admit you don't know instead of trying to bamboozle people with rubbish
Let me school you...
For you to build a pipeline to carry crude oil will cost at least $150,000 per kilometer; after that you build compression stations at specific intervals to provide the force that will push the oil along the pipeline.
You may also need to include heaters because crude oil is highly viscous therefore you need to make it easier for it to flow easily in the pipeline for a long distance.
At the refinery which is the final destination you will need tanks to store the crude oil briefly from where it will go to the distillation column to be processed and broken down into the various products.
For you to store crude oil in very large quantity for use over a long period like you have suggested you would need a tank farm that will be at least the size of the the whole of Ikeja LGA and Surulere LGA combined.
No bank in the world provide finance for such a large scale project knowing fully well that the crude oil will not be processed for the next 10 years therefore there will be no revenue with which to service or repay the loan.
That is the economic angle, the scientific angle is that crude oil evaporates when brought from an oil well to the surface therefore storing it for such a long period above ground will lead to degradation and attendant loss in mass and volume.
The best place to store crude oil for the long term is inside the oil well where it naturally occurred. If you have no immediate use for it then leave it where it is!
Don't be arguing blindly over technical issues you do not understand!
Please google crude oil pipeline in a shithole such as Nigeria. You are so clueless to be recognized.
SavageResponse: From where I'm standing you're the only fool for miles around.
You people will come here are start peddling your beer palour gist that will not stand up to economic and scientific scrutiny.
Please mention just one country in the entire world that stores crude oil in significant quantity for long term use much less now that the world is trying to move away from fossil fuel!
I do not discuss intelligent and strategic issues with dunces and fools.
Farki: Yorubas did help Ojukwu fight for Biafra, its a shame he got paranoid and killed them all.
Pure misconception of opinion. It is true opinion does not represent fact. One or two Yoruba who fought alongside Biafran soldiers does not equate to entire Yoruba of Nigeria who joined forces with northern region of Nigeria.
It is very natural Yoruba will always defend any form of corruption perpetrated by a person from northern region of Nigeria. The Yoruba of Nigeria will even go to fight for a northerner caught in the web of corruption. I do not know why most Nigerians seemed to react feverishly to a thing which is obvious.
RuudVanNisteroy: Fantastically corrupt Niger Delta Governors trying to cover up for failure. The Niger Delta states have received the highest allocation since 1999 with nothing to show for it. Niger Delta has received thrillions of naira from the 13% derivation and allocation to NDDC. And not one city in the Niger Delta can rival Abuja, travel to Warri,Benin City,Uyo,Yenogoa and you will shocked at the underdevelopment and massive poverty in those states.
Recently,Gambari and the presidential delegation had met with governors and leaders of the South-South geopolitical zone in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, on Tuesday. At the meeting, the South-South leaders including the Rivers State governor demanded the restructuring of the country in line with the principle of true federalism, saying it will guarantee peace, security and stability in the country.
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has urged the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), to prove to Nigerians that he is ready to do the people’s requests.
The governor said the President will set the country ‘on fire’ by not implementing some of the requests voiced out by leaders during the recent discussions with the presidential delegation led by the Chief of Staff to the President, Ibrahim Gambari.
Point of correction, the so-called south-south does not and will not equate to Niger Delta. There is intellectual difference between south-south of Nigeria and Niger Delta. The above post showed again most Nigerians are intellectually lazy.
Omoslim26: You just join nairaland and the first thing na for you to join the bandwagon of useless good for nothing jobless,lazy,poverty stricken,never do well ragamuffins wey no fit ever see better thing for this life and 600 yrs to come dey spew trash and childish yoruba vs igbo and other forms of nonsense bigotry
and the mod will not do anything abt dis one whose destiny in life is yoruba vs igbo and bigotry
shun bigotry
When I joined nairaland you were still in kindergarten. Ordinary question posed by me seemed to send you to la la land.
You saw correctly. Can you imagine soldiers from northern region of Nigeria torturing our brothers from southwest after fighting with them to stop Biafra. History does not mean anything to the goons from northern region of Nigeria.
[quote author= post=96466310]A group of civilians are currently thanking their stars.
The civilians were being interrogated by men of the Nigerian Army for driving behind and trailing a military vehicle, when Nigerian human rights activist, pro-democracy campaigner, former presidential candidate, and founder of online news agency Sahara Reporters, came to their rescue.
The 5th runner up and Young Democratic Party (YPP) presidential flagbearer in the 2019 presidential election liaised with the officers and asked what the problem was, it was discovered that the military vehicle which was in a hurry to go pick up a 'Big Man', was trailed and watched by the men, which made the soldiers suspicious. The soldiers asked the men to open the boot of their car but the men declined, which infuriated the military officers who asked the men to lay on the floor.
lalasticlala mynd44[/quote]Are these Yoruba people in pajamas members of IPOO (Indigenous People of Oduduwa)? Suffer heads full ground for Yoruba land ooo.
GBTYO: Olodo, the Russian communist revolution had Cambridge spies working with the Bolsehviks .
You won't know that same capitalist Jewish banksters that are in WEF and IMF are bent in ushering a global communist era with their great reset which their forebeares did by bank rolling the communist revolution in Russia for the sole aim of stealing all of the money and gold that Tsar Nikolas had in their banks in both London and New York
You won't know that one other capitalist Jew by the name Rockerfeller also supported and threw money at the Bolsheviks for the sole aim of destroying the growing Russian dominance on the world's oil supply hithero which was under the monopolist control of Rockerfeller's Standard Oil.
You know nothing.
Communism is extreme capitalism and it is a Jewish plot to enslave you and control all the world's resources.
Foolish IPOB Jew slave who doesn't know even his origins .
You seemed to punch above your intellectual weight class. Throwing words such Bolsehviks, Rockerfeller, Nikolas and Russia does not elevate your low class of intelligentsia. Olodo, can you name one of the Rockerfeller's contemporaries?
GBTYO: Igbos were getting Marxism and communist ideology drilled into their otherwise empty brains in universities in Europe and Nigeria.
The likes of the son of a capitalist millionaire businessman, Ojukwu was no different.
At his time in Oxford, Ojukwu was heavily involved with the campus branch of the British Communist party. Both Cambridge and Oxford have always been the radicalizing and recruitment centers for MI6 - the British intelrngence office that is heavily communist and bent on seeing to a global one world govt.
So after finishing his studies and radicalization program in Oxford , Ojukwu will return back to Nigeria and from there get himself recruited into the Nigerian Army as a lowly recruit.
Why did he do this?
Well, Ojukwu like many of his misguided peers was a radical Marxist and one who appealed to the Bolshevik violent take over.
He joined the army solely because he saw it as an avenue to stage an uprising front within the lowly rank and from there seize power. He was heavily influenced by the duo of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara , hence the beard.
Ojukwu knew he stood no chance gettting into the Nigerian Army officers cadet program being that he is both dangerously overqualified and severely radicalized to he accepted.
But how did Ojukwu slip into the army as a recruit? Did he use an assumed name or did he get help from his MI6 recruiters at Oxford?
One thing is certain, is that Ojukwu will later be offered a position into the officer cadet by the British.
You are very empty above your shoulders. Did you insinuate that M16 - British intelligent outfit is heavily communist? Nigeria is not called a basket of fools for nothing.
ijawcitizen: No, you have not answered if we sold the names of our streets too that were all bearing igbo migrants names. You can not wriggle yourself out of the truth with your lies.
My claim still stands that port Harcourt lands, (both Ijaw & Ikwerre communities) were ceased by Igbos and every plot were allocated to igbos only while denying the Ijaw and Ikwerre natives right to own plots of land in their own ancestral lands of Port Harcourt, do not make me repeat myself again else I shall take you to be a retarded person who can not comprehend a simple sentence in English.
What I showed you there was from a document you presented as you proof that Ikwerre land, (not port Harcourt) was fully under the control of Ikwerres, yet vast land was taken from them by igbos without payment as shown by your document.
I still have my cards of proofs with me. At the moment I am only using yours against you. I only need you to be making a fool of yourself, denying, wriggling and entangling yourself deeper with your lies. The last evidence you provided has already proved you to be a great liar. From igbos NEVER TOOK ANY LAND to ONLY TIME IGBOS TOOK LAND, the time and circumstances doesn't matter, no time or circumstance permits one ethnic group to brazenly take lands belonging to another ethnic group. who is shifting the goal post now?
Remember this document that exposes your lies and denial was YOUR DOCUMENT OF PROOF.
Arrant nonsense!!! Igweocha (Port Harcourt) actually belonged to Rebisi clan of Igbo ethnic nationality.
OlujobaSamuel: It might bring peace, no doubt, but to be frank, no leader/ruler would permit them to exit after enjoying the largesse of power. Most of the nation's defence and critical infrastructure were domiciled in their region due to the time they spent in power, so a secession now means majority of the nation's assets will go to them by virtue of geographic location as those assets can't be liquidated in order to share the cash equally amongst all.
What of Amharic group which had ruled Ethiopia for many years dating back to the period of Emperor Haile Selassie? In fact, the bolded should not matter to Africans. Nigeria is bugged into basement of perpetual idiocy due to the Nigeria\Biafra war. The bitterness will never end and will continue to constitute obstacle to Nigeria's development. Africans should borrow a leaf from the Europeans.
Linx1234: Scotland becomes the first country in the world to make the use of sanitary towels free and accessible to any female who need it.
The Scottish Parliament on Tuesday unanimously passed the Period Products (Free Provision) (Scotland) Bill — which is designed to create a legal obligation for the government to ensure sanitary products are free and accessible for all who menstruate, including tampons and pads in public facilities nationwide.
According to estimates from the Scottish government, the cost to implement the legislation will be about £24 million annually (almost $32 million).
