He was clad in agbada and all. Doesn't look relaxed...... Obviously done for the camera.

If you are not FAYOSE, you can't be FAYOSE.

Per the bolded, it is typical Nigerians and their goofiness.

How could Muhammadu Buhari be entitled to anything he purportedly received from Dasuki when the military denied it did not have the dude's WASC? Those who joined Nigerian Armed Forces through the backdoor should be dishonorably discharged from the armed forces. Even those who have already retired should have their benefits discontinued. If Nigeria should be sanitized, serious and swift drastic measures should be applied.

There are human beings who took falsehood for truth. From your post, you squarely fell into that category.

Forget Biafra and start holding your leaders accountable. They represent your interest in the Nigerian state. Nigeria will never divide. Kanu is just suffering for nothing

Since you know better than Biafrans, could you name their leaders who could be held accountable? Mr. Know-it-all, what are the interest or lack thereof that adequately needed representation in a stateless Nigeria? In human nature, never you say never. Human beings usually expire talk less of man-made joke such as Nigeria. I must say without equivocation, Nigeria is bound to disintegrate. There is no unity and sense of patriotism in the British contraption. The things that reign supreme in Nigeria are deceit, dishonesty, tribalism, fraud, embezzlement, cheat and sense of goofiness. I bet there is no fundamental approach to anything in Nigeria. It is either Nigerians are foolishly imitating other people or haplessly drunk on other peoples' inventive genius.

[b]The best line of action for Nnamdi Kanu is to sign that DSS document denouncing Biafra so he can be released and reunited with his family. There is no way Kanu can defeat the federal government in the law court due to the charges levelled against him. He set up a treasonable radio to broadcast hate and propaganda that is capable of destabilising the peace in the country. He is also accused of setting up a terrorist organisation called IPOB with the sole aim of causing chaos in the country. I think it's time for mr Kanu to apologise to all Nigerians especially the IGBOS for dragging their name in the mud and causing enmity between them and other tribes. It's time for Kanu to swallow his pride, forget his fake hero status and start thinking about his wife and unborn child in London. Most of his supporters have already given up and condemned him to suffer alone in detention. Many of the Biafrans are living their normal lives and celebrating the festivities while Kanu continues to face trial. His closest allies remained in London and all they can do is shout and pray for his release on their illegal radio. It's clear that mr Kanu is on his own. His last bargaining chip is to sign that document and vow to embrace one Nigeria. He should be ready to sign an agreement with the Nigerian government that he will discontinue broadcast on that illegal radio station. He should also tender a full page apology to the Yorubas and Hausa fulanis on 3 national dailies for all the bad he said about them. This is the only way mr Kanu can smell freedom again. Treason is an offence that attracts capital punishment or life jail. I hope his lawyers are reading this for his sake.

God bless our United Nigeria .

United we stand, divided we fall. [/b]

The above post is a load of rubbish!!!

Nigeria will be turned into a laughing stock in a hurry.

LOL I got more, trust me.

Bros what is actually wrong with most Nigerians? The Muhammadu Buhari was also product of 1962 fraud perpetrated by Tafawa Balewa and NPC. I guess is APC can be termed as "All Politically Corrupt" entity.

Can't believe someone I thought to be a Wise Guy actually wrote this knowing fully well the thread is simply meant to slight the president and is the story/link is TOTALLY fake.

From the dude's, Daura Dumbass a.k.a Muhammedu Buhari, track record, everything said about him is believable.

Ofodirinwa:
By Ofodirinwa.

After hearing the recent plans to borrow more from 'International and National' entities by Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun, this woman's name sparked an unreachable itch of curiosity in my mind. With my marginal experience in Finance, I can even deduce that further borrowing will be scraping viscera from the barren skeletal cadavers in our pocket we call 'The Naira. The cost of living for you will skyrocket as the worth of the naira decrease. After all, nobody knows the rate by which Nigeria imports from the outside world and how much it currently costs to buy imported materials....like fuel. Are we in competent hands?

Borrow to save yourself from an economic crisis? How will you repay Ms. Adeosun? Oil? No...that market's dry. Tax?....nope.... ok, how about my favorite 'the returned loot from anonymous looters'. Perhaps that isn't working. So not to get off subject, I wanted to learn more about Kemi Adeosun. I wanted to learn her experiences and story. The ideology or technique in approaching her professional. Certainty if the Vice President of the World Bank could have been such a problem, I'm assuming Buhari opted to higher the President of it right? Well lets look at her credentials.


Career

1989-1990 Kemi Adeosun served as an accounting assistant at British Telecom Company, London. (1 year)
1990-1993 She became a Manager of Internal Audit at the same company (4 years)
1994-2000 She worked as an Auditor at Price Waterhouse Coopers, London. (6 years)
2000-2010 Kemi became a Financial Controller at Chapel Hill Denham Management (10 years)
2011-2015 Kemi Adeosun became the Commissioner of Finance of Ogun State, Nigeria Limited. (4 years)

Yes. Our very own Ogun state, has had it's finances managed by someone with very extensive experience in the British private sector. Now, I can't speak for her work in the British private sector but given the amount of promotions she got, seems to me that she's a winner. What I can show, thanks to our Freedom of Information Bill, is the financial condition of Ogun State to see how this winner runs a Nigerian race. Behold.

According to recent figures released by the Debt Management Office, Lagos has the worst external debt profile out of Nigeria’s 36 states.

1. Lagos State - $1.087 billion

2. Kaduna State - $234 million

3. Cross River State - $131.469 million

4. Edo - $123 million

5. Ogun - $109 million

- Debt Management Office, 2015


A serial accountant who's leaning is fixed towards borrowing by edict of her record. An accountant in the seat of an economist. An accountant digging the grave of the Naira to borrow it's shoes. Kemi Adeosun has one solution for where ever she touches. Borrow, when they come back to ask for their money, I'll be working somewhere else.


Follow me on twitter @ofodirinwa

Per the bolded, she was just "accounting assistant" not even associate accountant and a year later, she was made "Manager of Internal Audit". This is the height of corruption known as cronyism. In fact, bottom power is not far behind in this case. Nigeria is a practical joke.

What a foolish joke. Nigeria cannot grant independence to anybody because Nigeria is not colonial power and never colonized anybody.

TonyeBarcanista:
We all know who the Great Chief Obafemi Jeremiah Awolowo was, but how many of us have heard of an Ijawman named Ernest Sissei Ikoli whom Awolowo along with Akintola helped to win political office in Yorubaland?

Who Was Ernest Ikoli?
Ernest Ikoli, an Ijawman from Nembe(Bayelsa state) was born in 1893. He was one of the founders and and pioneer vice president of Lagos Youth Movement that was formed in 1933, which later became Nigeria Youth Movement. Other prominent Nigerians that formed the movement were Dr Kofo Abayomi(President), Prof Ita Iyang(founding father/patron) and Samuel Akinsanya. Other prominent Nigerians that would later joined the movement were Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe(1937), Hezekiah Oladipo Davies(1938, later became the Secretary), Obafemi Awolowo (1939) and Samuel Akintola.

Okoli-Awo Political Comradeship
Among the prominent members, Chief Awolowo was the closest to Ernest Ikoli. In fact, Ernest Ikoli made Awolowo the secretary of Ibadan branch of NYM, a position that will mark the beginning of Awo's political career. In 1941 when Dr Kofo Abayomi resigned his position as member of Lagos Legislative council and President of NYM to further his studies abroad, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Samuel Akintola and Oladipo Davies all backed an ijawman Ikoli to succeed Abayomi in both positions. Awo not only backed Ikoli to succeed Abayomi, he also served as the campaign manager of Ikoli in the by-election. The interesting part of it is that Awolowo's kinsman and member of NYM, Samuel Akinsanya was interested in the legislative council position. Akinsanya was backed by Nnamdi Azikiwe.

Awolowo backed Ikoli Won The By-election

Primary election was held and though Akinsanya won majority vote in the primary, Awo, Akintola and Davies insisted on Ikoli as the NYM candidate(against their own kinsman). Akinsanya insisted on contesting the by-election, he had the backing of Nnamdi Azikiwe to run as independent candidate. Guess what happened next? Awolowo backed Ikoli defeated Azikiwe backed Akinsanya in the legislative by-election; and Awolowo won his first election as a campaign manager. The defeat of Nnamdi Azikiwe-backed Akinsanya led to both men quitting the NYM, but the movement went on. In fact, Ikoli ran for another by-election with his partner Awolowo and others behind him and again won.

It is interesting that the man(Awo) that some people choose to call 'tribalist' twice backed an Ijawman to defeat a Yorubaman in an election held in yorubaland. Indeed, It shall be well with Awolowo and Akintola.

Though, Ikoli died in 1960 at age 47, while Awo, his protege and partner-in-progress not only became the most effective premier of the entire western region, he also served as the defacto Vice President of Nigeria under Gowon's military administration. Not just that, his political ideology, Awoism is well and alive despite his demise. Not forgetting that Akintola also rose to the position of Premier of Western region. Whoever says Awolowo was an ethnic bigot owe common sense an apology.

Yoruba-Ijaw Political Relationship Beyond Awo-Ikoli
The Yoruba-Ijaw political relationship didn't just end with Awo/Akintola-Ikoli episode, it rared its head again in 2010/2011 when Yorubaman Chief Olusegun Obasanjo backed Ijawman Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to clinch the PDP Presidential ticket among all the Northern heavyweight to the position of President of Nigeria(though both would later become estranged). This is a position the Ijaws never dreamt of occupying as at that time.

Save Ikoli, I don't think there is any Ijawman that has held any elected political position outside his native domain.



May God Continue To Keep Us Happily As One...
(Amen)

Per the bolded in red, most Nigerians tend to strive on stupidity and dishonesty. There is nothing like by-election and primary election in the scenario the dubious poster was trying to insinuate. Not only that most Yoruba people in NYM exhibited tribal bigotry, they also introduced class distinction amongst Yoruba peeps. Contrary to what some goofy and narcissistic writers would want us to believe, Azikwe never had a candidate but insisted honesty and fair play which were alien to bunch of Yoruba peeps in NYM. The issue was not with Ernest Ikoli and Samuel Akinsanya but the so-called Lagos Yoruba and none Lagos Yoruba. Awo and Akinsanya were shorthand typist and Ijebu too. However Awo was irked that a fellow Ijebu and unionist like him would ascend to prominent position before him.

Again, there was no primary or by-election to the issue in discussion. The only election conducted was won by Samuel Akinsanya in a landslide but the powers that were in NYM, thus mostly and so-called Lagos Yoruba refused to accept Akinsanya's victory. I know the tabulation of the said election results which the Ijo and Edo writers who sought acceptance from Yoruba people disingenuously failed to furnish. Most Nigerians are pitifully dumb.

@OP

You are wastefully educated.

From their pictures, it is easily ascertained that these dumbass fools do not have ordinary self-discipline as they are totally out of shape to represent any armed force as an officers. Even ordinary fitness Nigeria cannot maintain. How on earth did these jackasses allowed to assume a command? The two quota system products are not qualified to hold a flag in boy scout's platoon.

Godson32:
Na wah o! Why being partial. If u comment in favour of nnamdi kanu or biafra they will remove ur comment,if u comment against nnamdi kanu,if u called him an idiot or u comment that biafra people are useless they will leave ur comment. Na big wah o,u for no allow the post on ur site nah,I know say una fit remove my own comment but I never talk anything o,just passing.

Why do you think Nigeria is termed dead-end?

IROHINOodua:
By Ayo Olumide


Yoruba people will not "again" allow its people to be used against the Igbo and the Niger-Delta in case of any major crisis arising from the agitation for Biafra, a coalition of several Pan-Yoruba groups stated today in Lagos after series of consultations and meetings. The release was made available to Irohinoodua today. “We shall mobilize against a repeat of what happened in 1966 when the Yoruba and the Hausa-Fulani north aligned to confront the Igbo,” the coalition affirmed.

It would have been great if the word in bold was inserted in the original article.

Eddygourdo:
I saw a thread of a brother in apparent capitulation over the update on rule nine. Though I agree with him that he was an apologist and not a warrior. The point is that nairaland was aiding and abetting acts of disunity by not controlling it's use as a means of agitation and hate messages. These acts were treasonable, as in some cases it promoted miss representation and miss information of the public. It became a rave for E battles and shouldn't sit well with this forum as a means of communication and education of its members on diverse issues. Thank you for that update Mr seun. We well meaning Igbos were tired of the acts of the biafrauds who were selling us in a bad light, that all of a sudden the igbo man is regarded as a trouble maker, who calls the country at the time of his birth a Zoo and his neighbours animals. This isn't representative of the online igbo opinion on this forum or igbo at large. Nevertheless I want to raise a point I learned from the tirades of that nairalander.

Every group has a right to discuss issues pertaining to its future growth and development, unfortunately biafra is considered and end to that means. We Igbos would love to have brotherly and peaceful discussions on issues bothering us as every other tribe does here. I hope such threads won't be a violation of rule 9.

Biafra is a dead issue but if it's living I agree that this forum should not be a platform that encourages mutiny or treason and such matters will not be discussed. But it could be mentioned occasionally in discussion and not in a subjective manner but rather objectively. Hopefully the behaviours and stereotypes now built by the ipob and biafrauds towards the Igbos will be amended.

Goodday

Per the bolded, in your infinite thought process, which is below human intellect, you concluded that self-determination is now mutiny or treason. The best way to hide ignorance is absolute mute.

lemme hear anybody that will say willie aint working...

this is to buttress the point that a capable hand is chauffeuring the affairs of Ndi Anambra...




unlike one man...somewhere...who is busy decorating an un-exisisting tourist sites whilst the state suffers tremendous insecurity and lack of major developments...#ah no call name oo ...just saying...


more pictures to come !!




willie is working!!!

There are no good roads in the states yet these misguided governors still give state money to federal government's entity such as police force and refuse to build or repair "Trunk A" roads in the states arguing the roads are the responsibilities of federal government. On which road will all these police cars ply? I guess the most idiotic Nigerians are those who touted themselves as educated.

vicadex07:
Just as the Name of the forum implies, Nairaland - a place for "Nigerians" to express themselves and share ideas and opinions.

Biafrans are obviously not for Nigeria, so it will be advisable for them to go and create their own forum to propagate their gospel just like the rogue and illegal radio station that they are presently using.

Seun never goofed in the stance he took yesterday and to me, that was long overdue.

My advice to Biafrans is to go and create their own forum because Nairaland remains Seun Osewas personal property and the vision he has for the forum is exclusively to cater for Nigerians.

The Internet would have been for USA citizens since it is invented by USA. Nairaland is an internet forum hence a public entity that does not belong to Nigeria or Nigerians. I guess you realize that some of us know where to go and demand censorship of Nairaland for its idiotic banning of contributors. Civilization is not erecting concrete blocks.

Disintegrated!!!!

pat077:
For what offense

Are you this slow?

antibiafra:
A colleague who is a lawyer asked me whats my opinion regarding the agitation for biafra. My take. .

Biafra has always been a fight of selfish interests since after the civil war... even during the civil war, many parts of the so-called biafran states refused to fight...if only these boys jumping around with green n red flags witnessed the biafran war, or even asked their fathers the raw truth about the war (dat is if their fathers even fought during the war, cos many of them hid and ran with their mums) then they would have retraced their steps...cos same thing that repeated then, is currently repeating now. Then the states were divided, now the igbos are divided...aside from what u mentioned above, alot of igbos in government would never back the move cos they are comfortable, igbos with good flourishing business would never support war, igbos living comfortable from the fruits of their hard labour would never wish for they they suffered years in actualizing to be bombed to the ground....only those who are looking for opportunity to loot their fellow igbos and opportunity to fight and profit from the dividends of war and the jobless dat will carry this matter on the head like gala. During the biafran war, Ojukwu was smart to get away with it and ran to the neighbouring country on asylum...Nnamdi wasn't lucky enough, war never even start, him don land for net...getting out would never be easy. I would never wish for a repeat of the war that turned my father and his father into poor people...make una use una head for once. Even when GEJ was in seat, biafra was not a discussed issue, now that he is out, protests don start. Na wa oh...hapu nu buhari ka anyi hu ihe ochoro ime tupu akpogideya n'obe. Now is not then...he does not have full authority, but we do...pls lets not abuse freedom of speech nor abuse the freedom of movement nor the freedom.
Good morning.

updates on the way . . .

Per the bolded, how could a person with colleague who is a lawyer have this idiotic stream of thought? Unless your lawyer friend is "Oluwale" type of a lawyer there is no way he/she should keep a company of a dunce.

StOla:
The people whose land bordered the sea had already been liberated from the grip of the Igbo Biafra. They were satisfied with being Nigerians and fought for Nigeria.

Till today, they accord Gowon the respect merited by his actions.

Whose oil did Ojukwu attempt to sell? Oil belonging to people who were proud to identify as Nigerians, or the yet to be explored oil in Igbo land?

Whose forces first invaded the territory of the other, the Biafran rebels or the Nigerian Army?

Per the bolded, what the hell is wrong with most Nigerians? Are the people liberated from what, captivity or slavery? Nigeria's education sucks.
