The fact others chose to be docile should not make Igbos tow that line. Not everybody is ambitious but we all cannot be unambitious!

Ekpeitit:
Who told you it's the turn of Igbos to rule?
What about the Ibibios?
The Igbos have ruled Nigeria before but the Ibibios haven't, yet the Ibibios are the highest producer of crude oil in Nigeria.
What about the Efiks?
What about the Ogoja people?
What about the Bini people?
The problem with you Igbos is that you believe Nigeria owes you.
Have you heard other tribes complaining so much?
Does it mean the Ibibio people have no right to rule Nigeria?

Common hatred for Igbos and oil are the only uniting factors in Nigeria

WesternOligarch:
Lol....well, on the flip side, buhari has wasted more flatin0 lives than any president, so it's all good.

What confuses Yorubas is the long-throat for Niger Delta oil. That's the whole political strategy of Yoruba, how to continue to access Niger Delta oil.

Tetrahedron:
Very enlightening…sadly we yorubas have been brought up to take professionalism over ethnicity

How does this post concern Igbos?

You keep running away with these lies.

Igbos will also be the ones to breakup Nigeria since they're responsible for everything

Arrewa:
The igbos started tribalism in Nigeria by killing sardauna of sokoto, Ahmdu Bello, Abubakar Tafawa Belewa and other northern leaders!!

the Igbos had good relations with the North & as such the Igbos had more appointments in government from Southern Nigeria.

The same Igbos launched a coup d’état that not only removed Tafa Balewa but killed him as well. The Igbos never complained of marginalization under Tafa Balewa.

Their son (Nnamdi Azikiwe) refused the right to include the secession clause that Awolowo had proposed. In his words ‘WE ARE ONE NIGERIA’. Ahmadu Bello even proposed to include Awo’s secession but Nnamdi Azikiwe refused.

Nnamdi Azikiwe knew that about Major General Aguyi Ironsi’s coup beforehand and ran away. The same Major General Aguyi Ironsi scraped the Regional system that Nigeria had practiced & replaced it with a Unitary system.

All efforts to make him return it back to the regional system fell on deaf ears.
Before the declaration of Biafra, Major Adaka Boro had declared the Niger Delta Republic (so you see the word Niger Delta is not a Fulani or Obasanjo construct) & fought the federal forces in a 12 day war.

Guess who gave the order to capture Adaka Boro & who was tasked with capturing him? Major General Aguyi Ironsi gave the order for the capture of Major General Aguyi Ironsi & Colonel Ojukwu was sent to capture Adaka Boro. Ojukwu paraded Adaka Boro naked in the streets of Yenagoa but the same useless Okukwu included Niger Delta in his Biafran map without even consulting with Adaka Boro or any of our people. The same Ojukwu invaded Edo & Delta despite both states not being part of the of Biafra!!

Igbos are worse than anything they criticize!!

Why is it only Igbos who must view their success as an exponent of dominance over others?

That is Igbos for you. They want the right to offend others while refusing to accept the consequences of their offensive ways.

This is why they are currently political outcasts with no major Party willing to support their ambition to lead Nigeria.

Just of recent... They're asking other region to protect igbos...

But they enjoy attacking and killing northners on daily basis!!

You people are just going to pay!!!!

The governors are benefitting from the status quo so what do you expect?

In a sovereign Biafra, many of these politicians will be irrelevant and they know this

QuotaSystem:
Na now day break?

Since CNG asked them to vacate the North and return home for referendum as the elders have been keeping quiet and low key supporting ipob terrorists violence, Kanu is suddenly being OPENLY REJECTED by SE elders - first Eze Ndigbo in the North and now their very own state Governors

I no talk am?

Don't mind the cloned Fulani Governors from Sudan

Calabar was never a capital of Nigeria. It was the capital of Southern Protectorate before Lagos Colony was added to it.

realstars:
Calabar Was The First Capital Of Nigeria Before Lagos,

She's a misandrist. Seems that her father abandoned them or did something terrible.

There's no way a woman who hated men can succeed in this life.

babyfaceafrica:
dads are what?

You nor dey alright

ehinmowo:
Nairaland has concealed dumb people behind tge keyboard. The way some Eastern miscreants always come here to scream about how xyz created south south to divide the east, one would think they have something in their heads.

While I am 100% in support of people going their different ways, we should be aware of how we got here. Na una kicked as secession clause in the constitution. Na d same una dissolved regionalism. Na dis same una use una hand split una region.

This is a fraud

WibusJaga:

This is the height of deception & should be criminalised.
Guys beware!

Just like this one...

100% spot on

Pierocash:
Nigeria's problem is not about individual,it is about a fraudulent system imposed on us by the military Juntas.


Until Nigeria is unbundled,restructured ,and create a balance that is fair and just. No single individual can do anything meaningful.

The unitary system of governance is our problem and not individual

Abacha was never a president! Who voted for him? Are you saying if one soldier overthrow the govt now,you'd recognize him as a president?

Abacha was a coupist and by our law it's treason. Stop glorifying coupists

143WaZoBia:
Brother. No one has the right to kill the president of a sovereign state. Why is Nigeria like this? Because Abacha was a northerner doesn’t mean we should let people from another country come and kill him. They help you kill Abacha thank God it didn’t get more than this bad. You see what happened in Libya after Khadaffi. That could be us too.

Who voted for Abacha? What made him a sitting president? A criminal who stole the people's mandate was killed like a criminal! Rubbish!

143WaZoBia:
This is not a joke man. That was a sitting President anything could happen to you ordinary citizens. You see why a country need another leader after a dead leader, and a better leader after that one.

I don't have time for Zombi*s. Now read the link and this was well publicised unless you were living underground.

As for the oil, without Nigeria they would still have had the oil in their ancestral lands

ba7man:
Where do you guys pull these lies out of?? Your buttholes??

Did she drill the oil and put it in the ground herself for her to be the owner?? Does that give her the right to steal like a mindless fool??

Diezani that has run to one carribean island and purchased diplomatic immunity is the one that offered to return for trial in your head.

Not everyone is stupid enough to think like you.

Yeye dey smell....which Nigerian made? Can we make even a resistor?

Shut the hell up! You believe nonsense propaganda! When she offered to come back for trial, the govt refused only to resume media trial.

She's from Bayelsa so technically you guys are the ones stealing oil from her ancestral lands. Their land has existed for thousands of years with the oil underground way before Nigeria

ba7man:
Diezani comes from an affluent background but that didn't stop her from being one of the biggest thieves to walk the earth.

You're not ashamed in making Tinubu your personal Lord and saviour. Is Tinubu himself from Lagos?

RichBoy247:
Why are they all Muslims?

Only Tinubu the Jagaban Borgu can say whether there is vacancy or not. Anyone that is not happy with that should carry his nylon bag and return to his village. Also remember to call your state governors at the guest houses they are hiding with their mistresses in Lagos as they spend more days in Lagos than in your useless States that they are governing.

IVF.....when you hear over 5yrs and multiple births....IVF things

We're promised tomorrow but not guaranteed tomorrow!

You can't wait till tomorrow to plan for it, that's idiocy

ERORR404:
Human beings are so funny. Not a single one of us is promised tomorrow, but we plan for things years away. Smh

Those poor people collecting levies and doing omonile? Mtchew

dederocs:
You are devcieving yourselves, who are collecting levies everywhere, who are omonile's... indigenes. Keep deceiving your kind.

If your family is not originally from Lagos, you're not from Lagos either. Being Yoruba doesn't make you an indigene of Lagos. By the way the original indigenes of Lagos are less than 10% in Lagos. They're now minority, it is what it is.

dederocs:
Are you an hoodlum, or hooligan?

Am sure we all know what it takes to come from somewhere, either by birth or being an indigene of the tribe. The hoodlums should go meet their state governors, Lagos don't need liabilities...those Almajiri beggars are the worst.

Who will pay the borrowed money? Bubu or successive governments?

Use your head, Bubu is just lazily borrowing so technically he has done no infrastructure since he will not be the one who's govt will pay

vedaxcool:
He did, no matter how your jaundiced heart wants to look at it. The borrowed money will be paid with what money? Borrowed money? At high oil prices these project could have easily been executed and paid for. If you cannot understand that the. You are dealing in sentiments not FACTS

. And please where are the projects the other administrations borrowed money for? Yeah you are right nowhere to be found.

Was it annual average or just few months?Just like Bitcoin hit $67k does not mean it sold annually for more than $50k. That's the reason you were thought averages in mathematics, that's what counts interms of annual earnings

michoim:
This your fact check is false. I remember vividly there was a time Brent crude hit $140 per barrel under Jonathan administration

With 100% borrowed money? Has he generated any money? Will his govt pay back the money?

vedaxcool:
lol is that all? Off course ignore the fact that oil price was more stable during previous years with nothing to show it, which was the point he was making, Doyin Okupe swore Nigeria in the TIME OF HIGH OIL PRICES CANNOT AFFORD NEW COACHES FOR OUR TRAIN SERVICE.

PMB has proven them wrong and has done more with less even building the perennial promise and fail second Niger bridge! We go well last last.

Show a credible source to prove GEJ sold over $120 per barrel anually. He did not, pure lies!

Do you also know the higher the crude price, the much higher the subsidy?

danilmo:
GEJ sold for $140 per barrel..
Read news.. He was so opportuned to turn Nigeria esp South to a better place but his ineptitude and clueless won't let him and that was why Nigerians voted him out, not knowing we will b entering from fry pan to fire..

The fact that you may be Yoruba doesn't mean you're from Lagos. Someone from Delta State has much right as someone from Oyo State to be in Lagos

dederocs:
Lagos leads. Too much illegal aliens in Lagos, the government must start a task force, to capture and remove hoodlums, homeless and street urchins, back to their states and countries of origin.

To z*mbies, this is one of Bubu's achievement

Twitter is challenging individuals not govt. Buhari tweet was his and not Nigerian government tweet. Bubu has 2yrs and he'd be gone, twitter would still be here

pegix:
You nailed it gee

Not looking good atall for them
Actuallly, twitter has shown too much power challenging world powers and sovereign state in any means is dangerous

Even Germany condemned trump's ban back then

But if a man choses his mother over you the wife in many things you'd be bitter. Double standard!

sapphiere:
Mine I will save No. 2

She is everything to me.

Are you Sunday Igboho?

Coldshisha:
What has Sunday Igboho, Amotekun and OPC been doing

So why are you not fighting the Fulanis?

Coldshisha:
Deeply in their heart they seek dominance just like Fulanis

What about the thousands of Nigerians who'll go jobless now because they can't earn on twitter anymore?

Agreed social media should be regulated but not banned. The President's right is not more than other people fundamental rights.

Worst he should have done is to go off twitter himself. Saying you took a policy that affects millions because of NK is ridiculous! If what NK is doing is breaking a law, why not involve the UK govt where he is currently residing?

omonnakoda:
1. I do not support the deleting of Buhari's remarks

The remarks may have been insensitive and offensive but I do not think they crossed the line

2. Nnamdi Kanu has used the platform to support killings in Nigeria without consequence

3. Twitter does not appear to be neutral in this quarrel

4. There is a wider issue here and that is the power , money and influence that Twitter has. It only has such power to the extent that sovereign nations allow

5. I believe the Chinese government will not tolerate half of what Nigeria has tolerated
6. Yes we want freedom of speech and all that but it should not be outsourced. This is a wake up call. Let us have a homegrown African Twitter that is subject to African regulation
