Franklinn1: Yorubas are more illiterate than the Northerners, they're always played by the north like football.. Yoruba will regret the atrocities they committed against the igbos.. It shall never be well with Awolowo and family
I'm not interested in what you wrote,my primary concern is the true healing of the country n achieving real peace unity n progress for all citizens
JAMO84: You are referring to military era, this Democracy. The reason why Yoruba formed Nadeco was because Abiola won an Election, they didn't cede the Presidency to us. Igbo do not want to use the PDP that they have been slaving for to try their luck, they want the APC to hand the presidency to them on a plate.
Is there no competent igboman in APC to become athe president of Nigeria?
The truth is the igbos made a couple of terrible mistakes in 1966 through nzeogwu n Ironsi but so has other parts of the country also made mistakes up till now,the circle should not continue, let's find a middle ground to put the past behind n solidify our country for peace progress n unity, it's only fare for the presidency to go to the igbos in 2023.
JAMO84: I don't get it; Igbo are trying to blackmail APC to give them the presidency, after voting for PDP since 1999! Can you work for UBA and receive salary from Zenith bank?
I AM DONE TALKING
I'm not igbo but let's be realistic,I remember vividly after 1992 the yorubas formed NADECO RADIO KUDIRAT n tormented Nigeria yet in 1999 they were compensated,let the igbos too hold the presidency for once, igbos stand to loss more if they should start any problem in the country n I'm very certain they will never do such.
Patrioticman007: Why are we trying to please the tribe that kept us on reserve gear perpetually in our drive to the future ?.
Forgotten History Of Igbo Tribe And Northern Alliance.
Do you know that when Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of nigeria;
Chief of Army Staff was from SE Chief of Naval Staff was from SE IG of Police was from SE Chief of Defence Staff was from SE Internal Affairs Minister SE External Affairs Minister SE Education Minister South SE Many other key ministries to SE Parliament President SE Unilag VC from SE The University of Ibadan VC from SE North resisted same at ABU!
Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!!
Out of all the most senior officers in nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed.
Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!
We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is a tendency to think those are truths and facts.
*What follows are documented facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity!"*
Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.
*“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central government because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then. Today, he is shouting restructuring that he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”*.
WHAT BIAFRANS WILL NEVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE REAL CAUSE OF THEIR WOES in nigeria TODAY:
The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in nigeria. in their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire nigeria nation. The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating.
I must admit that I'm familiar with the historical events you highlighted above n they are true,other parts of the country also had their faults too, I'm not igbo matter of fact, I'm from NC Nigeria so my view is not pro igbo but pro national,it was the late lucky Dube that said "don't look to past,it will make you pasteristic,look to the future it will make you futuristic"the past is gone but tommorow is still ahead,yes we need the past to guide us today towards tommorow,for equity n national inclusiveness , peace and progress,the SE should be given the presidency in 2023, after 1992 the SW formed Radio kudirat n NADECO with their attendant problematic activities yet they were considered in 1999 so why not the SE after all these years?.
I am a pharmacist and I am speaking from a professional point of view.
That drug has been expensive since January. People only got to know more about the drug after that video.
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine phosphate the not the same thing. The later is the one commonly used in the treatment of malaria in Nigeria and it's still affordable as low as 500 naira per card.
That pharmacy sell the cheapest hydroxychloroquine.. quote me anywhere.
Oga pharmacist just talk say una market don pay,now you de speak grammar,as a pharmacist y u no discover say the drug dealer help for Corona?,now you come de form encyclopedia of drugs.
Pharmmaqp: And where are those drugs imported from?..
The fact still remains that due to the increased demand for it.. the price will definitely remain high.
So you want to tell me the price of the drug skyrocketed in the US immediately the doctor made her statements n the drug was then shipped to Nigeria for sale?,I believe you are among those ripping Nigerians off because you are in a good position n have seen the opportunity you long craved for but don't think we are all fools please,the drug was not invented produced or imported now,it has always been in the market n likely what they are selling now at that devilish price is old stock, I'm not surprised though after all this is Nigeria but it's just because our government is stupid.
winkmart: Nollywood actress Anita Joseph has stated that Nigerian girls will prefer money over flowers.
Speaking in a video she updated on her Instagram page, the actress revealed that this is the only way through which a man could gain fast access into a woman's heart and so he should not waste his resources getting her flowers. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDZRla8ByJ8/
In a rather hilarious response to her post, one of her fans wrote that she doesn't accept flowers either as that is meant for kids, but the only kind of flowers she accepts are the ones designed with money.
What I saw very beautiful girls do just two days ago make me so scared n suspicious of every beautiful girl,God have mercy n protect the men Amen.
SaviMedia: Senator Kalu replies Akpabio, says NDDC has not paid contractors of roads he facilitated
Chief Whip of the Senate and former Governor of Abia State, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu on Monday said the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) has not paid any dime to the contractors who built the roads he facilitated.
Kalu was reacting to the communique written by Senator Godswill Akpabio, Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, where he reportedly mentioned ex governors Emmanuel Uduaghan, James Ibori , Senator Ifeanyi Ararume , Senator Orji Uzor Kalu and others to the several contracts allotted by the NDDC
In a statement signed by Barrister Emeka Nwala of office of the Senate Chief Whip and made available to the media, Kalu said he believes the issues at stake in the NDDC has to do with missing funds and not works done , adding that he is becoming worried over his name being used indiscriminately to sell newspapers without verifications.
According to the Chief Whip , the road projects mentioned by the Honourable Minister are the interventions he facilitated for the communities as a private citizen before he became a Senator.
Kalu revealed his name is mentioned because he used his letter headed paper to write a sympathetic letter to the NDDC in 2016 requesting and pleading with the body to rescue roads in Abia.
He also noted his relationship with Senator Akpabio dates years back and long before he (Kalu) became a govenor , adding that he would still request for more road interventions from Akpabio
His words, ” I was Governor of Abia State between 1999-2007 and never held any public office until June 11, 2019 when I was sworn in as a Senator. Between 2016- 2018 during my tour to several communities; leaders and welfare unions of most communities pleaded for urgent intervention on some dilapidated roads . I wrote to the NDDC informing the body of the conditions of these roads and the need for their attention since Abia is an NDDC state .
The NDDC in their consideration which I am very grateful to, awarded the roads to companies that duly tendered for the projects and not myself. Whatever link I have with the projects is because it was considered due to my intervention” He said
The Senate Chief Whip also noted that the NDDC that awarded these projects were not any of the interim management in controversy but the fully constituted body of NDDC with its board.
Clarifying further, he said “the roads I requested for intervention as mentioned by the Honourable Minister were repairs of Ezere-Acha-Ndiokoukwu Road ;Amaubiri-Eluama-Uru Ring Road, Lokpaukwu, Umuchieze ; Ndi Oji Abam-Atan Road ; the Okafia-Ozuitem-Bende road and Ozu-Amuru-Abam Road .
"The contractors have completed and delivered these roads long time ago except Abam-Atani road which I learnt from the contractors was slowed down due to rain but still ongoing.
"Meanwhile, it would interest Nigerians to know that the contractors who built these roads have not been paid any dime . It has not been easy with the contractors but because it's a community project they have only but kept hope alive on the NDDC.
Further speaking, he said " I am so much concerned about roads because I understand the economic importance of good roads , that's why I built several roads when I was Governor. Even as a Senator, it would interest you to know that my major constituency projects are road constructions, reconstructions and rehabilitations . We have put in plans to finish 19 roads in Abia North before end of 2021.
"As a community leader, I do not intend to stop my interventions on roads in NDDC states because all the states need good roads. Good roads help to drive the economy. Therefore, I believe the NDDC forensic audit should focus on the missing funds and not works done . They should focus on paying contractors that delivered their jobs and not using my name indiscriminately to sell newspapers. The Honourable Minister, Senator Godswill Akpabio is my good old friend. We have been friends even before I became a governor. I hope he doesn't expect me to stop seeking for road interventions in our communities . It is his civic responsibility to support the communities and I am very confident he will oblige our future requests especially in areas of good roads." Kalu said
Parada: We in Nigeria don't want national healing or peace. The Igbos can rot in hell for all Nigeria cares, no one will be gifting Igbos the presidency. You can join them on their way to hell too.
You n your types are not God n certainly you don't know what tommorow holds ok
HembaqMbk: Just to see how our fellow country men think and act, following the video made by Dr. Stella Immanuel on effectiveness of Hydoxychloroquine sulfate as a treatment for Covid-19. They have suddenly inflated the price from N2500 to N50,000. Why are Nigerians like this?
Can you push this to FP to create an awareness on this wicked behaviour.
This is bound to happen anywhere in the world although on different scale,the major problem is the complete lack of proactivity on the part of the government, the medical doctor in question did her training here in Nigeria even though she is camerounian,immediately the news broke out one would have expected the government to get in contact with her to get more n special details n then begin to stockpile the drug if necessary to prevent a situation like what is happening now,but the bunch of morons led by their chief dullard will always act true to type,same was the case with face mask instead of the government quicky stockpiling n distributing the cheap standard face mask freely the making there wearing compulsory with attendant punishments for defaulting,they were busy making fools if themselves chasing meaningless measures, buhari is just a complete bag of garbage.
smallsmall: The bigger Questions you should worry about are" - Can the PDP actually put forward and stand behind a SE Presidential Candidate? - Can such Igbo PDP Presidential candidate win against say another Northerner candidate in the North or in the South West? - And if we consider the APC, even if the APC puts forward an Igbo Presidential candidate, how would such person emerge, knowing that hte Igbos were never part of the APC and only a few of them like Joe Igbokwe had the foresight to remain in APC (and he deserves to be handsomely rewarded with a Ministerial appointment, a Governorship position or even the Presidency, some day not very far from now), who will select and back up such Igbo nomination in APC? - Can such a minority nomination of an Igbo Presidential candidate under the APC flag, win against say a Northerner candidate in another party like the PDP or will it just amount to a waste of ticket, at thi spoint in time?
It is very easy to just chant "ceed the Presidency to the South East", without examng the viability of such ceeding, knowing that both parties will NEVER agree to do so, at the same time, especially with the way the North views Igbos, when it comes to Nigeria's Presidency! The day l see the PDP and its Northerners back an Igbo President on their ballot, is the day l will vote for an Igbo President. Imagine if Atiku will ever back an Igbo Presidential aspirant, against a Northerner canididate?
You making it sound as if without Apc one can not achieve any political goal in thiis country but mind you Apc itself may even survive post buhari,if I'm to go by your analysis it simply means only the north can successfully grab the presidency but it's very possible for that to change in the future,I will agree with you that the igbos would have to work real hard to get the presidency,they made. a terrible mistake by not standing firm and allowing the north to complete their tenure after the demise of yaradua,but then having said all these it's important that the igbos are allowed to mount the throne of this country's leadership if we are to achieve true national healing n peace.
Irrespective of howt anyone may feel, personally I admire Atiku alot,but for equity n national inclusiveness,the presidency should be ceeded to the SE In 2023 simple.
Amaechi has spoken but I shall await Reno omokri Mr factica to state the other side of the story before I speak my mind,I trust he will do justice to the issue like always.
Made4naijaceo: For those doubting that they didn’t have sex, look at where she used her leg to drag her pant back under the duvet. The guy don cum, e don tire, see snoring...
ladies de get sharp eye for this kind thing,but still this show is nonsense n should be halted immediately.
I read from another that maduabuchi had gone on Away without leave (AWOL) for six months n just returned back to the unit less than 8 months ago,his salary account was blocked because of the AWOL hence his grouse,even though the killing is very pathetic it call for serious questioning to done n answers provided for,why did the soldier had to go on AWOL?,when he returned was the punishments for his behavior made clearly known to him?,was the continuous blocking of his account part of his punishments for going AWOL? war is a terrible situation that requires good management, command and control of personnel,tempers could flare up and go out of control at any moment, there are bound to be those against n for the actions of the soldier be n that could be a good recipe for trouble,the army authority should not just stop at investigating n punishing maduabuchi endeavor to find reasonable solutions to the underlining problems that could trigger such catastrophic reactions in future.
This woman may be blackmailing the police officer for failing or refusing to pay properly for konji service,for God's sake how can you be rape through out the night in a hotel n you didn't a sound to attract the management!,if she is acting base on the provocation of passion someone should please let her know that she is playing with fire.
myobjective: We are Yoruba, we don't play religious politics. Ethnicity trump whatever monotheist religions you may follow. Furthermore, the Yoruba will vote for any of our sons that take up the challenge in 2023
You are deceiving yourselves but go on the end shall justify the means.
kbrisco: If not for greed someone like David Mark or Jonah Jang for President would have been good. Let Christians from North feel among
Take I or leave it, except rotational presidency becomes a law in this country, it's almost an impossibility for a northern Christian to become an elected president of Nigeria no matter how good they may be.
LordNicvuitton: Hi Romancelanders, don't know if it's right to share this topic here, but I'll do for now.
I'm Victory, from the East and currently a resident of Edo state. I came to this state, as an intern and thereafter, still served here and in the course of all these, I thought out and established a laundry business, which is just about 8 months old. This was to keep life going and to better bond well with the lady in my life currently.
While in Edo state, having rounded my internship & kickstarting service sometime around 2017, I met this Kiki Osemudiamen (Name changed), and it was nothing serious at 1st, cos I never really thought I'd date someone here, fact is that I never thought I'd stay beyond my service year. I met her while she was in 200l. We encouraged each other, she saw potentials and had faith in me just like I have so much faith in her. She is simplistic, encourages me to save and I in turn, encouraged her and guided her through some of her studies. She passed her 2nd MB.BS. and is currently awaiting lifting of the lockdown on schools, so she can start her clinicals.
Problem is that she came from a not buoyant family financially, and although both parents are alive, she struggles to survive/feed daily. Her dad supplies about 1000litres/trip water to households, while her mum sells at the local market. I on the other hand, came from a middle class family but my Dad is late since 2012, and I've been a sponsor of my education and that of my younger ones through the lil I inherited (which mum manages for now) plus my various endeavours. She depends on me for daily meals and other basic essentials, in fact I had to place her on salary in my laundry shop during this lockdown, so she plays the role of secretary in my shop too.
The latest challenge came about, yesterday. While she slept in the shop, I was out on errand, someone sneaked into the shop and stole her android phone with all of her e-medics textbooks (she reads mostly e-copies because she can't afford hardcopies), she has been crying all through and I really don't know what to do. Since I knew her, She'd been an appendage and an extra financial burden to me, I can't begin to list what I've done for her, although I kept reminding her never to not have entitlement mentality and she does appreciate. Out of desperation to ease her pain, I promised to sponsor her in getting a new phone. I have burdens, huge ones, I'm yet to acquire a diesel engine for my laundry (I use ponytail industrial iron which has higher voltage/current than normal ones), plus other related merchandise that I need to set up and I feel like she slows down my financial pace.
Honestly, I don't do all these for her, hoping for any personal gains, in the words of my daddy in the Lord, Prophet T.B. Joshua, He said and I quote: "We make a living by what we get and we make a life by what we give" but I am almost fed up and tired, especially when I remember that both her parents are still alive.. I am scared that that for the 1st time, I may fail her in that financial obligation because I honestly need money now, with the whole pandemic issue plus, I feel like she slows me down in life financially and a huge burden to me. Right now, she's so attached to me, more so that when I initially wanted to hault our relationship, it almost nearly affected her academics negatively. Please I need matured minds to help me think this through and garnish me with advice(s) because I almost feel so choked up and a rising urge to relocate from here, so i can breathe again.
NB: Advice from married couples and those in serious relationships, will be highly appreciated.
Modified: She went to her bank (First bank) this morning, only to be informed that about 20k (Her mum's business money) has been used to purchase recharge voucher. Her mum sends/receives money from distant customers through her account. Yesterday's scenario, all over again. Please folks, lock your SIM cards just as much as you lock your phones. Learn from this painful experience please.
Let me first of all remind you of one fact of life, it is easier to formulate formulas of life when you are successful,you are still struggling but foolishly following an unrealistic wise saying,ok in my village there's a saying that, it's only when the keg is full that it spills over any other spill before that is a leakage, think about it.
All this beating about the bush n arriving at no where,what is the essence of this long Hydra headed epistle if not to confuse people n sweep the fact in issue under the carpet?,was crude oil stolen from Nigeria?,was it later found in China by whoever n by whatever means or method?,was the crude oil later sold?,what happened to the proceeds of the transactions? this are the straight questions begging for answers n not the above account of Paul's unending missionary expedition,mele kyari malami n buhari as the substantive minister of petroleum resources should account for the fraudulent fleece,I can bet my ass that buhari is not privy to or ignorant of all the monumental corruption been unearthed daily,so much for Mr integrity!
kbrisco: Most Yoruba people don't take Christianity or Islam seriously. It is just politics for them. Tinubu that is claiming to be Muslim do his children go to Mosque. Even the likes of Fashola are audio Muslims. To the Yoruba religion is not that critical, it is tribe that is the main thing.
I have heard this claim severally but I have no doubt that in critical situation tinubu n his likes will certainly side with their Muslim brothers,there is absolutely nothing wrong in their been Muslims but for the sake of peace, equity n inclusiveness the Christians should be ruling the country too.
Goke7: am with you 100% on this, truth is some folks who are so bitter against this govt don't really care
I'm a Christian minority from North Central,the Christians in the north are a minority n right now under serious threat from the Muslim majority,a Christian northerner becoming an elected president of Nigeria is like a mirage,some persons can only agree to be use as stooges for personal gains, it's painful that there is so much hate amongst the southern Christians if not nobody should be dreaming of a Tinubu hoping to succeed buhari, what is needed now is a Christian president of southern extraction who has the charisma,courage, experience, expertise, intellect n capacity to take charge of the country post buhari n act descisively with patriotism to reunite the country n put it firmly on the path of peace unity n sustainable development.
It's almost an impossibility for a northern Christian to become an elected president of this country,a northern Christian becoming the VP too is just part of the dangerous scheming by the conservative Muslim supremacists in the north to perpuate their grip on power,Dogara can choose to accept been use as a puppet for his personal gains but he will eventually be disgraced, equity demands that come 2023 power should shift to a Christian southerner whether in Apc or any other party,the Christians n Southerners should stand up n boldly demands for this,if not that the Christians insisted in Lagos Tinubu would never had made Ambode a governor,even with that how did it ended, Tinubu can scheme from now to eternity,the idea of a southern Muslim succeeding buhari is unacceptable.
dalass: There are many laws that seems to change for one reason or the other... I think If there was no need for it, there won't be old Testament and a need for the New Testament... The new covenant being much better than the old! I give 2 examples:
1. For example, inheritance was to male kids or family members only according to Mosaic laws but four daughters of a particular man who died without sons went to Moses and inquired from God. God said it was good and they should inherit their fathers properties.
I think some laws are still relevant while some are iron clad... Can't be changed!
2. A woman caught in adultery was brought before Jesus and by Moses law, she would have been stoned to death! But Jesus did not allow it in his wisdom... Why didn't he allow Moses law to take effect?
Some alterations, God permits and I think anyday of the week a man dedicates to God for rest and worship is just fine!
PS. According to law of Moses, a menstruating woman would be unclean and anything or anyone she touches will be unclean too. But many women on periods, choristers, female Pastors, women in the congregation go in without anyone discriminating against them... So
All the examples you stated are from the Bible n certainly unquestionable but the switching of Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday has no biblical basis n that makes it very questionable.
This is how you guys will go about enticing n reaping off people,I dare you to drop one free sure winning code on this forum n see the effect if it pays out.
NockMedia: I am not trying to justify what the lady did, but never raise your hand on a lady as a man. Don't.
it's ok,may be it will be much better to raise the legs then!,if you can't take blows don't throw them simple,the guy should have given the bitch an unforgettable upper body cut blow.
dalass: Well, I googled it earlier cause the same question was in my heart. I remembered it was Emperor Constantine. Then the earliest Christians who observed Sabbath also met on Sundays because Jesus rise on Sunday and the Holy Spirit came upon the Apostles on Sunday.. Hope it helps
But if this were correct, isn't it wrong for anyone no matter how powerfu or irrespective of the circumstancesl to just change or alter a direct biblical directive?
