ngozievergreen: D PPL KILLED IN DAT COUP WERE SO CORRUPT. N YORUBAS SHD TELL ME Y THEY R TOO TRIBALISTIC. D OP NEVA CALLD YORUBAS BT HERE U R FEELING INFERIOR EVN WEN OJUKWU IS DEAD. YORUBAS CANNOT EVN RESUSCITATE WEN DEY HAD BEEN ON THE RECEIVING END OF A WAR. I ONLY PERCEIVE ENVY. FEELS GOOD TO KNOW IGBOS AV .FOLLOWERS.

...but of course! Everybody envy ibohoes.

ngozievergreen: @dayokanu, u call igbos illiterates n we r celebratin two literary giants on dis page,i mean giants nt beans. Tribalism cant evn allow u see.

Lol...ariran meji nilu awon afoju. Only two partially sighted people in a nation of the blinds.

seanet01: Goodluck and his politics of bitterness. Imagine this when he himself that is not performing is taking new loans trying to stop a performing governor. Ogun lakaye o, olo minile fi eje we, oya fi Eje gbogbo awon to ba fe je idawo fun Fashola we . Ase waaa

Lol...iwo omokunrin yi o ni pa mi lori site yi.

kingsceemark: Yes by the grace of GOD. I can't wait 2 see PDP kick ACN and FASHOLA a*s out of power. We don't need criminals 2 rule us again in lagos state, lagos state belongs 2 all of us.

Actually, no, it doesn't belong to you.

It does however belong to me and people like me because I have ancestral rights which you will never have.

danjohn: I am not an Igbo man. I am a South Southerner. All I am saying is that Lagos is a melting pot and if ACN picked a non-indigene like Pat Utomi as their candidate, it will rebrand ACN to the rest of the South. It could also make Southeasterners less suspicious of ACN.

Nigeria needs to do away with the whole indigene/non-indigene crap. A person should be able to run for office in a place where they have established residence. Pat Utomi is a resident of Lagos, he is a well respected technocrat, and he will be a good person to continue the good work that Fashola has started.

Pat Utomi emerging as governor of Lagos will help ACN remove the regional perception the party currently has, and it will help the party make inroads into more states in the South and the North Central.

I know that this idea can make a person laugh the first time they read it but if you give it a second thought, it could start making sense .

T9ksy: Rebrand ko! reshaped ni!!

why are you ibos always lusting after other people's land?

I wonder why APGA don't field oyinlola as their nxt governorship candidate so that others wouldn't see their party as an okoro party?

Shoooor!!!

mbulela: Awo is grossly overrated.
In addition, so was Ojukwu.
Can we just move along and allow these dead men to rest in peace?

Don't be silly! Do not for the sake of being politically correct lump gold with coal and summarily throw them out as valueess stones. The great Awo and ojuiku should not be mentioned jointly in the same sentence, talk less of placing them in the same overrated category. Awo stood for progression and his achievements are not only tangible but innovative. The latter, ojuiku was all for retrogression whose achievement can but only be measured in the biafran war which led to the death of not only his stupid flock but brought misery to his surrounding neighbours and Nigeria as a whole.

Arrant nonsense!

tomakint: Thank God for JESUS! The power in His Blood still delivers. DESOLA YOU NEED DELIVERANCE, I HEREBY COMMIT YOU INTO THE HANDS OF JESUS FOR IMMEDIATE DELIVERANCE FROM THE SPIRIT OF WITCHCRAFT!

Witchcraft nikan ni, airforce one ni. Na me and your mama for okoroland dey lead the cult. Eleriibu omo jomijoke!

oponu ayirada, aye n wo e lawo sunkun, o n wora e lawo rerin.

pazienza: Are yorubas ahead of igbos in education today? There is a thread on 'nigeria's academia in diaspora' look for it,and see who is leading in that aspect of human endevour,and we have jamb enrolement statistics to support our claim of dominance on that sector. Yorubas are not ahead of ndiigbo in education today. Awo's free education failed.

Ok...so now that you know that your co.ck is bigger, what are you gonna do with it?

Moraforker!

Shymexx will you stop this tete-a-tete with this dic.kie and save us the further hogwash.

tomakint: The Biafran episode was purely a 'Genocidal War of Attrition' Ojukwu remains vindicated! Pa Awo in as much as I respect his political sagacity, shouldn't have partook in Gowon's war cabinet but based on the 'conditional clause of a Promised Presidency' Papa fell for the bait! I maintained that we (Southern Nigeria) have a common enemy, 'the northern oligarchy' FG only won the battles but lost the war completely (the aim of the war was to achieve a united Nigeria) but Nigeria is not UNITED

oloshi oloriibu masanfani eranko lasan ikeji aja!

CHESSBOARD: She-he , You are here again showing off your stu.pidity, The same way ur grand Father Awo did decades ago is what your ppl are doing today to Igbo employees because of the advantages u ppl have after the war , occupying vital positions, giving them 20 pounds while stealing the remaining chunks. The wickedness that run tru ur grand father Awo's vein still run in today's Yoruba generation.

Hmm...if Awo the great was stupid, I wonder what you would call the great ebubedike ojuiku who fled in damask skirt and blouse complete with 5inch stiletto and cherry lipstick. A word comes to mind...yep, a WUSS!!! That's it, grand commander of the stupidest ethnic stock ever to grace the earth.

Crayola1: Coming from the the queen of stupidity herself, irony indeed

Who wants to put money down the Desola's nighttime clients are Igbo She hates them with a passion yet her hate will forever remain on the internet, even with the little intellect she has she knows that keeping her mouth shut is good for business.

sorry, I unfortunately don't understand gibberish.

Would you mind saying all that in English?

Thanks in advance.

Katsumoto: Ok, I have heard you.

Nice one. And that is how you should have responded to the nincompoop to start with.

pazienza: pathetic
excuse,there is always a reason to be a sore loser, many wars have been
fought,if war stories sell like hot cake,why haven't she made one? i
guess she lacks the gile to make it to the world stage,she is only good at
talking ill of her superiors. nonsense!

You almost tried to make sense.

Give it another go.

pazienza: Yea,this would explain why she is a world figure,while you are a nobody.

Well...at least i'm glad that we agree on her claim to fame.

Eko Ile: Not surprised this girl is trailing the same bitter and disgruntled path ashebe cleared for the next generations of bitter and disgruntled ibo people. This is her currency, all her biafra noise is what made her popular and she has a movie based in the same idiotic and moronic understanding of the foolish bifra war coming out. She has no choice but to keep supporting the same dog shiiiit story because it has to do with her bread and butter, telling the truth or saying anything contrary to their biafra rubbish means fighting against her bread and butter and path to biafra money making and book writing carrier...

It's very obvious she's a disingenuous and lying dullard. She knows nothing beyond the same biafra silliness other biafran clowns post on NL, they are all the same.

A very apt deduction!

Warri _Pikin: I had always wanted to avoid this civil war debate largely going on between Igbos and Yoruba.
But Chimamanda mentioned something i had always had in my mind.Which is that Nigeria always knew it would defeat Biafra because it had more weapons,soldiers and the entire international community, so why then do you need to starve Igbos on top of it? I don't know who advised that policy,but it was a wicked over kill.
It is even more painful that in the end, Biafrans were defeated purely by military capture of all their towns and their airports. So why were those children starved to death?

Did you ponder over your agreement to that statement before putting it in print.

A right thinking individual would have thought that if Nigeria knew that it would easily win the war; taking cognizance of the weaponry at its disposal, then the military leader of the east, having at a point been part of the Nigerian army; would have been privy to this fact and would have so calculated that going into a war was nothing short of foolhardy. He would have known that he was but leading his own people to the gallows - the slaughterhouse!

naijababe: ^ Mustapha Amego I remember. I hated that show, used to find it so boring.

You found sunday rendezvous, boring, did you say?

naptu2: There were three presenters.

Skid Ikemefuna: if I remember correctly, he was the first presenter. He released an album under the name "Mc Skiddo". He later became a pastor. He is now an executive with the Silverbird Group

Mustapha Amego: To me he was the best presenter that the show ever had. He also released an album.

Sylva (sp) Oforgu: he later had his own show on NTA Channel 10.

Yes! Yes!! Spot on!!

Mustapha Amego! Was he the tall dark one with jerry curls?

kai! The mention of 'tandi guarana' took me back to the good old days when I would feign illness so that I would be exempt from going to church an stay back home to watch sunday rendezvous.

Does anyone remember the presenter's name?

naijababe: Can cause ulcer if taken on an empty stomach often. It does not prevent heart attacks perse, it thins the blood which aids in the prevention of thrombosis or embolism.

I often take two aspirins before a long haul flight especially if I am going to travel cattle class.

western nigeria is the only place you see this type of density (well, Onitcha)[/quote]soo...picturesque!

afam4eva: I was just letting you know that Lagos just like London are not cities in the truest sense of the word. They're a collection of cities. That's why i cited the city of London in London.

This is worthy of a good throaty laugh.

4chi: thanks Katsumoto. I thought I was the only one seeing through this pathetic hypocrite. Afam or whatever you call yourself take off your mask and stop playing the silly devils advocate.show your proper colour as an ibo Irrendetist and stop your silly pretences. What the fvck is your business with awo's name and who is the "they" in your title. Since you've asked the silly question however,you need to be informed that Awolowo to the yorubas is a reincarnation of Oduduwa and he will forever be celebrated not for his foolishness like ojukwu but for his sagacity,Spartan self discipline and ingenuity.how can we forget the guy who gave us TV first in Africa,before countries like Ireland,new Zealand,turkey,Singapore and Norway .the first modern stadium,first skyscraper, educated a whole generation and laid solid industrial foundation for the west.only God knows where he would have taken the Yoruba Nation,if the Nigerian contraption peopled with far less talented people had allowed him.up till date, he remains a benchmark for what governance ought to be. So Mr Afam " they" will NEVER LET THE NAME GO. His achievements will continue to speak for him. nobody talks about Zik because he left no real legacy to remember him by and your Ojukwu will also soon flow down the drain.

well said!

Very well said!!

coogar: ijaw areas? typical! i see a trend here.
what are the odds that these places are the most notorious states in examination malpractices. the average youth in these regions is a militant. most of the centres are not motorable.....which means all the examination papers are sent in advance unlike places like lagos, abuja and anambra where the exam officials go to the bank to collect examination papers on the same day.

as in!

If I can believe anything, that would be one assertion I would refute to high heavens!

Ijaw? Delta...maybe if my arm was twisted but bayelsa? Come on! You just have to take a look at their number one son and deduce the truth. Jonathan is a prime example of that fallacy.

ndu_chucks: Logic ko, antics ni.

Katsumoto has offered nothing to disprove Afam's claims, all Kats offered are reasons why Afam's defense of the claim may be inadequate. Kats has not proved that the underlying claim by Afam is inaccurate, so as far as I am concerned Afam may be correct, and none of you people have shown his statement to be categorically false or unsupported by facts - you have no facts to make that claim.

I see a bunch of ole ntele Afas hailing Dr. Katzumoto regarding some debating skills, these people must be oblivious of the regular thrashing I give him regularly.

abaye nse iwo bobo mola akewureje yi ni?

Kilode?
Aboki aho kelebe osi!

Katsumoto: You are inadvertently supporting his position. There is absolutely no basis for debating graduate numbers when Afam and his kind can not even provide data which provides for entry into university. If only 30% of 1000 candidates from Imo pass Jamb and gain admission and 65% of 800 candidates from Ekiti pass JAMB, which state has produced more entrants. If a student fails the first part of an exam in which you can only advance to the subsequent stages after passing a prior stage, would he be allowed to proceed to stage 2? If Afam and his kind provide stats which supports higher entrants from those states (Imo, Anambra, and Delta), then we can proceed to the next debate about number of students who graduate. In any case, I had killed any hopes of that argument when I stated that JAMB numbers do not include students who go abroad and to private universities.

Afam's position is further weakened by the fact that he ignores a percentage of the population which is educated. India has more graduates than the US but the US has a higher percentage of educated people.

My argument isn't even about which region produces the most graduates or educated people, it is just about defeating the moronic and asinine argument that JAMB applications supports one region over others. But I agree with you that there are far too many morons who use that line of argument.

see debate! See logic!!

Your head dey dia jo!

taharqa: Is this not a shame? ACN in dier quest to control power wud attempt to control d Judiciary! Why bring a Judge from Lagos and attempt to force him on anoda state's Judiciary in complete disregard for extant and constitutional procedures on the mata? And why wud d State House of Assembly try to stall d appointment of d rightful candidate (the oldest member of d state Judiciary) even after the express directive of d NJC.... Like i said in anoda thread to PDP, these politicians shld not bring their 'madness' to about the only institution with sm measure of sanity left in our country. SHAME on Arigbesola; plz correct this Asap

If Nigeria were truly a federal state and if regions had derogated powers, would it matter what state a judge comes from so long he is Yoruba?
