₦airaland Forum

The Offspring of the perpetrators of operation watee in western region of Nigeria have transplanted the same demeanor to nairaland by stamping out voice of opposition. It is really shame indeed.ACN is a tribally biased political party that has no place in Nigeria or anywhere else.

[quote author=I.hate.nig.gov.]A June 2008 Senate probe revealed that she paida severely questionable N30.9 billion to contractors within 5 days in 2007, and a 2009 recommendation by theSenate was for her to be prosecuted for the transfer of N1.2 billion into private accounts. These might yet be unproven in a court of law, but there is clearly something about Alison-Madueke that attracts questionsof corruption.
There are accusations of certificate fraud from Howard University, fraudulent assignment of prospective rights in lucrative oil blocs, extortion from marketers, fraudulent dealings with jewelers as minister of mines and steel development,fraudulent dealings in the oil sector that was unveiled by a 2010 KPMG report she refused to co-operate with,the fraud surrounding the handling of N155 billionaround Malabu Oil, andthe unsurprising revelations ofdisgusting corruptionunderher watch by Nuhu Ribadu’s Petroleum Revenue Special Task Force.where u nt in Nigeria when all this happened,i guess u r one of thus bloody foo!s that keeps encouraging this corrupt government.
I guess Nigerians are the cause of their problems,seeing a corrupt gov.and still encourage it shows that the required revolution that we are expecting in this country can never happen.
It is such a pity![/quote]Most Nigerians are worse than their leaders on the pedigree of intellect. How could you be happy with yourself for laboring very hard top to have above junk posted on this forum especially the first paragraph? It is funny you have the words-revealed and questionable in the same sentence in a subject of probe. If the senate had found that Diezani Alison-Madueke had made inappropriate disbursement of government funds to contractors, the senate should recommend for prosecutorial measure against her.

Again it is very childish of you to tread on issue that borders on idiocy. Howard University is an institution of good quality repute and is not in hiding. During the numerous probes by your so-called senate, it would have scooped some facts about Diezani’s truancy at Howard University. Do you not trust the probing ability of Nigerian senate?

In fact at best, you are a useless rumor monger.

@OP

Most Nigerians, including OP and author of the article, are bloody fools who dwell on innuendos and rumors. If moronic dingbats such as you could navigate to this forum to wallow on ignorance, you could as well go to the particular ministries and institutions and seek for facts instead of feeling depressed by undue pressure of tribal bias, jealousy and rumor.

GEJ sins are :

1. GEJ is not Yoruba
2. GEJ did not marry a Yoruba
3. GEJ does not have concubine who is a Yoruba
4. GEJ does not play poker with ACN members

From your stream of thought, it is safe to say that a nigger is more valuable than you.

Ndigbo have long known the conniving antics of these pajamas cowards from southwestern region of Nigeria. It is very shameful most of them appear indifference and silence to the sudden deaths of their kinsmen in northern region of Nigeria while taken to the bull horn to magnify the misfortunes of Ndigbo in northern region.

[quote author=c.fours]Igbos living in North flee to Cameroon for safety from Boko Haram violence
February 9, 2012 ·
FOTOKOL (AFP) – Nigerians have fled in droves to neighbouring Cameroon to escape violence claimed by the Islamist Boko Haram group and revenge attacks by Christians.
“Everybody is insecure in Nigeria. The fear is all-pervading,” said a Christian priest, speaking on condition of anonymity, in Fotokol, a Cameroonian border town where dozens have taken shelter in the last few weeks.
It is located about 100 kilometres (60 miles) from the Nigerian city of Maiduguri, the bastion of the shadowy Boko Haram sect which has been blamed for a slew of terror attacks that have sowed panic in Africa’s most populous nation.
Boko Haram has claimed to be fighting for an Islamic state in the north, but its demands have varied.
“Many Nigerians like myself have fled their villages in the south. We feel secure in Cameroon,” the priest said in Fotokol.
“That is why I am sheltered here,” he added.
He has rented a house which is about 10 minutes by motorcycle to the nearest town in Nigeria, Gamboru Ngala, where he heads the local Catholic church.
It is difficult to gauge the exact number of Nigerians who have fled to Cameroon as they cross the border illegally, but there are easily dozens sheltered here since the attacks and tit-for-tat ripostes by Christians.
Mahamat Tujani, a Muslim trader from Maiduguri, fled to Kousseri near Fotokol.
“I abandoned my business and my family to seek refuge at the home of my cousin,” a Cameroonian, he said. “I escaped out of fear.”
He hoped to return home soon, he said, “but if the killings continue, I will bring over my family members here.”
Boko Haram has been blamed for scores of bomb attacks in Nigeria’s Muslim-dominated north. It claimed responsibility for January 20 coordinated bombings and shootings in Nigeria’s second-largest city of Kano that left at least 185 people dead — Boko Haram’s deadliest attack yet.
The August suicide bombing of UN headquarters in the capital Abuja which killed at least 25 people was also attributed to the group.
“When you scent danger, you must escape,” the priest said.
“Even in the Gospel, the Lord says the moment you sense danger, you must escape. If you don’t it’s suicide,” he said.
The priest said two Christians from the mainly Christian Igbo ethnic group were killed in Mobi in Adamawa state about three weeks ago.
“When the other Igbos went to reclaim their bodies the Boko Haram struck and killed 29 others,” he said.
Sectarian violence has been rising since elections in July last year. He urged both Christians and Muslims to “return to God.”
The priest said Muslims were also targeted by Boko Haram. Between January 28 and 30, three people — including a Muslim — were killed in Gamboru Ngala, Nigerian and Cameroonian police and medical sources said.
The priest was following an Africa Cup of Nations match on television at a bar, along with six other compatriots. In another room, eight other Nigerians sat, drinking

You are an exemplary of failed state of Nigeria. When did Mahamat Tujani, a Muslim trader from Maiduguri become an Igbo? There was no place Igbo fleeing to Cameroon was mentioned in the article yet a dunce such as c.fools has effrontery to caption thread the way he\she did.

Nidgbo do not have any business in Almjiri Professional Contractors (APC). I am shocked that APGA has not expelled Rochas Okorocha and Imo State House Assembly has not moved a motion to impeach him. Rochas Okorocha is the only governor without a political party as a sponsor.

The southerners have every fathomable right to reside in northern region of Nigeria as long as Nigeria remains one notion. We must “Go On With One Nigeria” (Gowon).

dayokanu: Na hausa vs ibo wahala

I had been resourcefully informed that cowards die ten times before their actual deaths. It is not a surprise to read form coward incarnate such as you to have already contemplated the political fracas in northern region is between Hausa and Igbo. Where did other moronic ethnic groups such as Yoruba, Fulani, Kanuri, Tiv, Nupe and Angas fit into the equation, olodo?

Andyforte: Very on point. We have been cultured to be very selfish and powerless. We see trouble coming and continue life as though nothing DEY happen. We have become too selfish, too lazy to think and the stories of these deaths in Nigeria looks like story to the listener. Finally, this is not a northern issue against eastern issues. This is Islam at work, they only deceive ppl trying to make us think its not religious.

Nigerians are drenched in a culture laden with deceit and backstabbing. The first civil war had proven that most Nigerians are inherently deceitful and had no blood of credibility running in their veins.

I have wondered aloud why there are no calls for the firing of IGP. If the peep is Igbo, the decibels of rants for his removal would have awoken God from sleep in the heaven.

MASSOB leadership consists of bunch of fools who are more interested in grandstand than clandestine. Any serious group does not announce that it is ready to declare war rather it just launches attack.

byteem: SO THIS IS HOW THEY CALL FOR AMNESTY .. THE SULTAN CANNOT CALL HIS BOYS TO ORDER . THE EMIRS CANNOT CAUTION THEIR OWN PEOPLE .. THE GOVERNORS SIT BACK AND TAKE THE BOKOHARAM RAVE TO REQUEST FOR MORE SECURITY ALLOCATIONS , MORE MONEY .. THE NORTHERN ELITE SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE SHOW ...AMNESTY INDEED .....THE PRESIDENT VISITS AND TWO WEEKS LATER.... THIS IS THIS IS ONE TOO MANY..

THIS IS A THE HEIGHT OF SEVERAL BRUTAL SLAPS TO THE IGBO RACE .. I TOT THEY SAY THEY ARE WARRIORS .. SO NOW I DARE SAY THAT IF THE IGBOS SIT BACK AND DO NOTHING .. THEN THEY ARE CHICKENS ..DAMN THE CONSEQUENCES, TO HELL WITH DIALOGUE .. THE OHANEZE,MASSOB AND ALL THOSE TONGUE WAGGING TOOTHLESS DOGS SHOULD STAND UP AND GET COUNTED ENOUGH IS ENOUGH ..AM NOT IGBO BUT AM THAT MAD..

IT IS ESTABLISHED THAT OUR PRESIDENT IS A COWARD .. THATS NOT NEWS .. SO WILL THE ENTIRE IGBO RACE ALSO BECOME COWARDS WHILE THEIR BROTHERS ARE SLAUGHTERED AND WHILE THE NORTHERNERS OWN FLEETS OF TRUCKS AND OIL BLOCKS IN THE EAST AND TRUCK AROUND COMFORTABLY..BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS THE ONLY REASON WHY BOKOHARAM CANNOT BE IDENTIFIED IS THAT THEY ALL ARE BOKOHARAM.. ... I SAY BURN THEM THEM ALL ....IF ITS WAR THE SO BE IT...

I do not think you are Igbo chap. Even if you are an Igbo, it is a brazen display of idiocy to conjure the crap you posted above. How does it solely incumbent on Ndigbo to spearhead a reprisal on an insidious bomb attack at the Sabon Gari Luxurious Bus Park in Kano? Are the Ndigbo the only owners of the luxurious buses or the patrons of the Bus Park are only and limited to Ndigbo?

cogitoErgo: Anybdy calling fo war or breakup or rprisal, to me, is intelectually lazy! The last war did not favour the East, and beleive me, the new war will still not favour the East, Awolowo warnd them b4 they went into the last war but they went into it anyway!
As far as Im concernd, the solution is simple. Let all Igbo boycot Kano for a year! By boycot, I mean total boycot, social and commercial and let us see if Igbos will not be begged to come back!

The only character that appears intellectually lazy on this discussion is you. In your wise assumptions, you seem to believe in status quo. I could not fathom how your below average intellect cheated you from the knowledge that only thing that remains constant in the world is change. If you think the next civil war will be a replica of 1967civil war when northern, western and midwestern regions teamed up against eastern region, you are really intellectually lazy.

It is funny your cheap solution of boycott of Kano stop short of disintegration of country. When citizens start to boycott a town and state, it is good as disintegration.

The title of this thread, “Ojukwu Was Unbelievably Selfish, Greedy, And Self-centered--- Chief Uwechue”, does not in any way, shape or form remotely resembled what Ralp Uwechue wrote or expressed in the post.

The title of the post is a manifestation of stream of thought owned by an imbecilic numbskull who defecates at mention of Igbo, Ojukwu or Biafra.

No human being is infallible, Ojukwu inclusive. It is beyond the pale of my imagination that any dog will attempt to make political wave out of such noted human shortfall. In my book, one of the cardinal blunders committed by Ojukwu was appointment of Banjo, a Yoruba, as commander of 101.

I am ashamed that most Nigerians tend to fall for the by-products of acts of loudmouthed endeavor from one section of Nigeria. There is nothing morally or legally wrong in groups of people registering a political party of their choice.

Despite the acronyms are the same but the names All Progressive Congress and African Peoples Congress are certainly not the same. If the airheads behind the All Progressive Congress (APC) think they could not co-exist with African Peoples Congress (APC), they could simply change to another name and stop the on-going political idiocy by crying over a party name.

ubong560: Honestly, this is funny and ridiculous but it's so pathetic to the citizenry. Do we really operate a govt whereby who ever finds him/herself in any position and expose to sum good amount, the next is 4 d folk to loot away the treasury as his/her own share of the national cake? Everytime we hear abt dis person looting so so amount and d other person carted away so so amount usually in millions and billions including some Profs. in higher institution as if it was constitutionalized that whatever amount that comes ur way as whoever, it's ur own share then cart away same speedily b4 it's late. We've been hearing these cases from politicians to contractors to head of departments to political aids to whoever just name it.

I do not really understand the force behind it that's why i term to ask if we are running a 'u chop and i chop, man no go vex government' in dis Nigeria?

Candid suggesstions and contribution b4 i start looting mine o.

Is there anything wrong with “chop and I chop” government? Or do you prefer “I chop alone”? Do you not think “Man No Go Vex” is better than “Man Go Yawa”?

APGA and Rochas Okorocha have disappointed Imo State!!!!!!!!!!

Alfamann: Whether I had another moniker or not should not be the basis of acceptance here. We all, including Point B or a newly registered, need to follow the constitution. The constitution does now allow me to vote. I accept. It does not allow me to nominate. I do not complain.
But the constitution did not say that I cannot make a petition. It is unconstitutional to ignore my petition. Not that unconstitutionalism has ever stopped PointB from imposing his stance on the sheeple that follow him.

There is no disconnect. I was banned and became inactive for some time. I only yesterday after I saw the chaos that the non heeding of previous warnings has caused and the disorganised and unruly manner with which this new process is heading into a catastrophe that I decided to reregister in other to say my own.

We have an opportunity to settle matters but people trying to impose their own agenda are spoiling everything. Yes! that's you PointB.

PointB is becoming a problem instead of a solution for igbos here on NL.

In most cases, constitutional attributes are implied. If you agreed you have no constitutional pedigree, due to unforeseen circumstances, to vote or be voted, it is clearly you have no business with the electioneering.

However, I shall stay alongside with you to drum up the loopholes you discovered within the constitution. It is human nature to be suspicious of authority and in this case, PointB.

I really do not think PointB fits into your characterization of him. By the way, it my opinion.

[quote author=jas_o]What i mean is that there is level of curruption to be measure by regions.
If Jona region doesnt belong to this class of curuption, there wont be staging of protest in support of anti people project. This show the worth of the president when it come to curruption, and his family wont say anything because is truely reflecting what they stand for.
hope i open your eyes.[/quote]Probably due to your goofiness, you forgot northern region with its sidekick, southwestern region, have driven Nigeria into the abyss of corruption for more than 45 years. What a troll. You are one reason Nigeria needs disintegration.

Alfamann: Many people are asking who Alfamann is. Alfamann is the nemesis of wuruwuru people.

No matter what you do, you can never impose on igbo people. We are as republican as they come and unles you work with us, we will work against you. Ask Ogugua and Odumchi. Onlytruth understood that and at the end of his tenure, even his opponents (including me), sang his praises.

With every utterance the confused and embattled PointB makes, he alienates himself.

My purpose is to build, not to destroy and I will not be a hypocrite. When I see something not going well, I point it out.

This election is a mess and I have brought a solution.

Don't let a technicality intended to separate chaff from weed be used to exclude one of your own. It will defeat its purpose, except if that was main intention with the attitude of some people, you never know.

There is no doubt you are Igbo because you sound more intelligent than average human. If you accept the fact you just registered few minutes ago as posited by PointB, you have another moniker we would like to know. Anybody who registered few minutes ago would not have known about end of tenure Onlytruth talk less of singing praises of his stewardship.

I sense disconnect in your well intentions especially in seeing Ndigbo united as family. If you have discovered a flaw in the constitution and waited until this moment to raise rancor and grudge, it does not speak well for you acclaimed mantle of building a united house.

[quote author=ndu_chucks]Ana m'anu! Nwannem, biko hapu Dede1.

As for me, I will take the words of your Uncles and Auties who lived in the North, as truthful and accurate, before I take that of a person who probably resided on campus, for military purposes alone in Zaria, as accurate. Dede1 is a well known stubborn revisionist.[/quote]I do not think Dede1 would be highly disappointed with your silly postulation in the above post. You should have equally asked Ngwakwe how many of his\her so-called Aunts and Uncles who did not make back to eastern region in 1966 during and after the despicable act of insanity called pogrom.

Ngwakwe: My Aunts and Uncles that live in the North before the War told me that Nyamiri is what Hausas call Igbos and that it was specifically derived from Nyem mmiri.

Nyamiri is not and has never been a derogatory word.

It is not a begging thing but a normal offering or welcome presentation during a courtesy call between Igbos.

The same as Ngwa man calling other Igbos Ndi Ohuhu because of their preference to roasting the yam in emergency to Ngwa man's insistence on cooking the yam.

Dede1’s plank of the argument is correct and 100% logically ascertained. There are no doubts your sense of knowledge in this discussion is senselessly flawed. What a false sense of playing to fool’s delight.

One of my Aunts was killed in northern region and luckily few of my relatives survived the insidious acts of murder in northern region during 1966 pogrom. My relatives who survived the pogrom had their stories to tell too.

We are not talking about derogatory or historical derivation of words through assumed philosophies that surround certian brothers. The allusions of Ngwangwa via boiling and Ohuhu via roasting is a misguided endeavor.

One wonders why Aboki should resort to only Biko Nye m Mmiri for Nyemiri to describe Igbo peeps because Ndigbo used Biko Nyem Mmiri amongst them especially the market women instead of Biko Nye m Ose, Biko Nye m Nnu, Biko Nye m Aghikere, Biko Nye m Akwukwo, Biko Nye m Mmezi etc. Do you not think it would be proper if Aboki should have called Igbo peeps Nymose, Nyannu, Nyemaghikere or Nyammezi.

Aboki derived Nyemiri from Onye Mmiri because Aboki, the water hawker, was jointly involved in the usage of the phrase because the reference was directed to them. Ndigbo were or are not used to begging for anything. They had rather perform menial services to attend to calls of the stomach.

During my stay in Lagos, we use to yell “Onye Anu” instead of “Olerun” for meat sellers or hawkers to determine who amongst them is really keen to do business with Ndigbo. By the way, the Olerun whoever responded to Onye Anu got the business big time.
