Oh! For avoidance of doubt, I stand by everything I stated about Unoma Akpabio, Godswill Akpabio's wife. I posted evidence of her atrocities and she'd forever be in our blackbook for the antics she tried to pull as First Lady of Akwa Ibom.
She's more subtle than Betty Akeredolu but she's just as nepotistically tribalistic, but we have woken up to her.

Amazing news yesterday with the landing of the 2Africa Submarine Cable in Qua Iboe, Akwa Ibom. This is a significant milestone that has been delivered with the support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, whose directive to all relevant agencies to support the ease of approvals was critical to the successful landing of this cable in Akwa Ibom, a first for the Niger Delta region.

This cable landing, as well as the one in Lagos last week are important building blocks in our plan to achieve broadband connectivity coverage for the whole country. We expect these cables to go live by early 2025.

#NigerianExcellence

- HM Bosun Tijani

Cc Dis.stroy

This is what I posted in a certain think-tank WhatsApp group on January 30 when we did an appraisal of Tinubu's appointees. My exact words in bold:

"About President Tinubu's economic team:

The only member of that team who, in my opinion, has a clear-cut developmental agenda is Bosun Tijani, the Minister of Communications, Innovation, and Digital Economy.

He's done/doing three things which I find unique about a Nigerian federal minister:

1. He posted a 32-page policy document in October 2023 on Twitter as a clear and detailed roadmap on what his ministry intends to achieve so we can track its/his benchmarks;

2. He's gone beyond the talking points to begin implementing these, and;

3. He gives timely updates himself too. It leaves no room for misinformation as all I, for example, need to do verify a piece of news is go through his timeline, or ask him. Interestingly, he'd respond. He's been doing this since he assumed office - responding to everyday persons about the activities and scope of the ministry he heads.

Maybe if other members of the President's economic team emulate this approach, the disconnect between what the government's plans are and what the everyday person thinks they are would be bridged. Maybe. But it's a first step."

Bosun Tijani is still the only one who knows what he's doing and is coming off as so. He's still the only Minister who I think is worth discussing and commending.

Yo Diss.troy, is it true one can use Â.Î to búild a wébsite?

No, A.I. cannot build you a website. It's like a tool, a car or something.

You can use it to genérate códes - Ã.Ï. like ChâtGPT - but you need intermediate or advanced knowledge of progrãmming - the programming languages themselves - to actually build the websites. And this in turn requires you to be very good at prômpt enginéering to even know the right questions to ask of the genérative Á.Î.

Even seemingly drag-and-drop no-cøde ÇMS like WébFlow requires you to have in-depth knowledge of design principles like UI/UX, color schemes, e.t.c. to design websites which look good and are functional. Ã.Ï can't do these things. Not yet, at least.

Learning prómpt engînééring using Á.Ï like ÇhàtGPT would make a prógrammer or web dévélopér côde faster, but it won't replacé the wéb dévéloper.

Any newbie or novice who disputes the two points above can try making a wébsite (even a static one) with Á.Î. It'd be interesting to watch them try.

@Katcall
Not true Efik & Oron migrated from Cameroun area Usakedet, while Annangs migrated through Ghana which is the origin of their name. They both migrated to the ibibio region.
This thread explains more details.
https://www.nairaland.com/609355/whats-major-differance-igbo-people

Wrong!

Efik people are a subset of the Uruan people who are in turn a subethnicty of Ibibio. Efik or Efuk isn't even their original name. How dare you twist their history? Do you know the Efiks and Uruans speak the same variant of Ibibio, and the Efiks still go to Uruan to pay homage, including the Obong of Calabar?

The Oro (not Oron - Oron is a subset (1 LGA) of the Oro people (5 LGAs) ) - and the Efiks and the Uruans are related. That's why Efik culture is an exact replica of Uruan culture, including cuisines, marital rites, Ekpe cult, e.t.c.

The Ibibio comprise of Northern Ibibio (Annangs), Southern and others which includes the Uruans, what is today known as the Efik, the Oros, the Ekids, the Ikot Abasis, the Iman clans which spread to become Etinan, Ubium and the likes.

Annangs, Oros, Uruans, Efuks, and Ekids are subethnicities of Ibibio. Only the Ibenos and Eastern Obolos are different - they are historically migrant Ijaw fishermen who morphed with the Ibibios.

Go read about the Ibibio - Arochukwu war at Ibom. Parts of us migrated into Cameroon, not the other way round.

-----

I don't know you but I can give you my full names. I and my team have been building the biggest digital repository of Akwa Ibom history, culture, people, and more. I've been in touch with professors of history from Akwa Ibom, been given access to these books, and still consult with them. The first of its kind in Akwa Ibom.

I did something similar for my LGA in October, 2020, and it involved a deep dive into Ibibio culture with partnerships from some Akwa Ibom historians. The first of its kind.

This Saturday, there's one of such meeting with these historians and even a book review by one (in the corridors of power). I hope I'd be back in time for it physically since I am part of the organizers. I'm careful not to reveal too much on Nairaland. Nigeria is unsafe else I'd have mentioned specific names and venue.

Don't insult me with such hogwash and countering with lies. I don't just post - I live up to what I post. You better be a proper Ibibio girl and learn our history, culture, and more properly; and be involved in projects to promote it.

Like I stated, if you will do same, I'd give my full names so you cross-check. Then I'd mention high-ranking popular Akwa Ibom historians and some in the corridors of power you can confirm my name from.

When Unoma Akpabio through her foundation as First Lady was relocating prostitutes from Maitama - prostitutes who are chiefly Igbo (ask anyone to confirm) - around 2012/2013, she paid them between #50,000 to #100,000 as support money so they vacate the area, while she chased the few other prostitutes of other tribes away without the same financial support to go earn a decent living.

the fact that you're comparing barca to a man city that had no history prior to 2012 shows your poor sense of reasoning and knowledge of football, no offense.

You are dense. Pre-Pep, Barça never really dominated football except our spells of dominating success in the 70's and 90's. Even our 2006 UCL triumph wasn't so dominating. Pep was the pinnacle of Barça's success.

And the Pep era now being enjoyed by Man. City and what it'd seem like post-Pep as exemplified by Barça's current debacle is what is being debated.

But Seûn has no aptitude test for registering on Nairaland so it's a free-for-all for people like you with single-digit I.Qs for whom deductive logical reasoning is too much of a mental task.

Same thing would happen to Man. City after Pep leaves. The spoilt fans would demand the new coach dominates teams, win back-to-back EPLs and FA Cups, and thrash teams in the UCL every season without fail. And it must be beautiful football.

If they are only helping out their relatives then that's not tribalism, that's nepotism.

No, it's tribalism when the only relatives you help are from your tribe. I repeat, Igbo first ladies are very notorious for this and it fuels some of the sentiments against Igbos in many places. I haven't even described one-twentieth of how nepotistic Nneoma Akpabio was a First Lady. Thank goodness my people woke up to tame her.

Same way Betty Akeredolu has killed the chances of any Ondo Governorship candidate with an Igbo wife.

No matter how nepotistic and domineering any of the presidential first ladies we've ever had were/are, I can guarantee you, if those first ladies were Igbo women, they'd do worse.

I state this knowing someone would quote this in the future on a thread I frequent here and I stand by it, including on any platform.

His wife cannot help Igbos and majority of Igbos don't even know nor have ever heared about her. She's probably helping her relatives and uninformed people like you think Igbos are benefitting. Akpabio might also be helping his own relatives but you want him to help other Akwaibomites he doesn't know. The world doesn't work that way

Dude, shush it! I'm Ibibio. Unoma Akpabio, like most Igbo first ladies, is notorious for that. It almost cost her husband a second term as Governor when Akwa Ibom people revolted against her. She toned down in 2015 but has begun again.

We'd never forget how she tried to flood Akwa Ibom State Civil Service with Igbos and the prejudice she displayed at Maitama, Uyo. No Igbo state would tolerate it.

Her antics has put a question mark on the ambition of politicians with Igbo wives in the state. Ask anyone versed in Akwa Ibom politics to confirm this.

Really?
@Dis.sTroy is this guy's claim true?

Not exactly. But the OP is right about Igbo wives being nepotistic and giving jobs to their Igbo relatives alone.

Nneoma Akpabio as Governor's wife was notorious for scheming Igbo people into Akwa Ibom State civil service until we fought back and kicked them all out. ALL OUT. It was so bad Igbos began boasting they control Akwa Ibom.

It's one of the reasons any person contesting as Governor or Senator in Akwa Ibom with an Igbo wife has another hurdle. It worked against Nsima in 2019.

Same thing Akeredolu's wife did.

Igbo first ladies are notorious for trying to hijack what rightly belongs to indigenes to their Igbo relatives. I trust Da Zion Umoh. Now that he's mentioned it, it would be addressed.

Akpabio had to plead when it got to a head as Governor. We'd revisit the issue and address it. If it isn't addressed, Akpabio would pay for it during the elections.

But Akpabio has used his power as Senate President to help a lot of Akwa Ibomites though. Many people I know have been appointed into high and federal offices, including a very close associate of mine recently. Many got civil service jobs too.
Nneoma Akpabio, like most Igbo first ladies married outside their tribes, tends to overdo it. The Igbos wouldn't have taken it if Obi's wife (an Ibibio) tried that as first lady in Anambra.

They scream tribalism but dish it out on a daily.

Why do you lots like to tribalize everything? You are quick to accuse others of tribalism but you are, by default, the most tribalistic people in Nigeria.

I'm not exactly sold on the state police. In states where there's a lot of scrutiny and are somewhat liberal, the media and civil societies groups would checkmate excesses.

But what happens to states with historically autocratic governors where their word is law and opposition hunted to death? State police would be used as a ruse to hound dissenting voices.

Except there's a mechanism which lets the central powers checkmate state police. Imagine what a Yahaya Bello would have done with state police... Just imagine.

Same Eedris who viciously attacked Timaya out of nowhere because he felt entitled to the later's success, then went on to launch attacks on a few associate artistes he felt entitled to, only to seek public support for his ailment soon enough?

Eedris, like most people, is a desperate social climber; and anyone who reads people well knows the endgame of these seemingly random outbursts.
