So immediately they are aware of this emergency meeting, they couldn't place a phone call? Cow herder govt!

I have also wondered why we put coupists on pension and celebrate them as former country leaders when they stole our mandate using guns! In developed countries, you pay for crimes no matter how long but in Nigeria, we celebrate criminals. However, the only person who overthrew a democratically elected president is Bubu so he is the only coupist(well IBB supported him so he is culpable in that regard) but IBB overthrowing Bubu is not treason because Bubu's military govt was an illegitimate govt

Fertility treatment! One of the side effect is multiple births!

With the improvement we saw in Edo and Ondo election, Supreme court governor is gone, you can take it to the bank!

Olatomiwami:
Another chest beater on the prowl, no b like this una deh before he became governor? Is when he has sat gidigba u are now foaming in the mouth,he has consolidated already, deal with it.

Is supreme court governor even in APC? By 2023 he will be dealt with like Oshiomole!

They are not the people spearheading the group, they are just supporting a moving train!

ZKOSOSO:
IBB and Abdulsalam are the progenitors of Core North

e be like say you don dey talk too much..FEM!

The core North had it coming! They will soon be isolated, they have been very wicked to the rest of the country!

Supported!

Arrewa:
May Nigeria break up!! Amen!

We need to collectively call for an end of Nigeria.

Let end this country and be good neighbors!!

Let's every region display their capacity!

Let's see if propaganda can sustain and develop a nation!

Keep insisting Igbos will never be president and see how far it goes!

The South will be separated from the North if the North continue it's current path!

QuotaSystem:
1. Boko Haram is not supported by Buhari.

2. Boko Haram is and has never been the mouthpiece of the North unlike IPOB.

3. Nnamdi Kanu has killed several people through his instructions to his blood sucking terrorists e.g attack on northerners in Oyigbo.

4. You do not have equal bargaining power & political influence with the North so you're comparing rocks & tomatoes.

5. Igbos can surely be President, no doubt, but it will never be by grandstanding, posturing, blackmail, insulting & daily attacking critical support bases (4 regions of North & SW) to attain Presidency. Only when those are your only approaches will I agree that Igbos can never be President.

I did my service in Jigawa state and I was frequenting Kano. Development is most about humans and not roads!
With the level of pathetic education, poverty, killings...your politics is useless because it benefits a few!

QuotaSystem:
The North remains better infrastructurally developed than the SE & SS. I am willing to do a state by state review.

Only an untraveled, ignorant person would dispute this fact. Just look for any arewa/arrewa cities thread.

Is it abia that is an oversized piggery that is 30 years more developed than the North or Bayelsa that still liiks like a glorified village with communities still drinking where they sh1t & some cut off from civization? Stop fooling yourself.

The politics is very useful and that is why you keep talking about northern domination in the civil service, military, government etc. It is why they are able to locate strategic projects like railways & dry ports in the North among other projects. It is idiocy to think political power is useless when it is what controls & directs economics & critical policies.

You are only consoling yourself.

The youths are far more corrupt and you know it.

RuudVanNisteroy:
Youths should join together to get these analog and fantastically corrupt politicians in APC,PDP and APGA out of power in 2023.

When will the black Africans focus on the real thing? The North with all their political sagacity are still 30yrs behind south and 200yrs behind the Western countries. Their politics is useless if it cannot improve the lives of the generality of Northerners. For goodness sake Bokoharam, herdsmen and banditry has finished the North!

macof:
because the foolish South thinks education is all about Western books and school system. As a reader myself I know burying your head inside books doesn't best prepare you for real life situations

The northern elites have been playing the game since the early 60s. Educated South fooling themselves by not having an agenda of their own

If Bokoharam that has killed over 30 thousand people and supported by Bubu could not deny the North of presidency, how come NK that has not killed anybody and is an individual, deny the entire Igbo of presidency? Cant you see your double standard? Let the Nigeria insist Igbos cannot be president, it's better. It will ensure the Igbos who believe in Nigeria starts looking towards Biafra for real

QuotaSystem:
"Hand wey wan collect, na him dey long pass."

The SE and other regions have different political capital & bargaining powers so if they can still secure enough support & muscle their way into the Presidency, Igbos can't with their endless, tactless, bridge burning, politically suicidal behaviour.

Use your tongue to count your teeth. Umahi is going nowhere.

You know that's where Tinubu draws his power to manipulate elections that's why you want them remain. The day you travel to Europe,
your mentality will change! For now you keep supporting Tinubu winning at all cost!

helinues:
DBA

Nonsense

What has APC done for Nigeria that you're proud off?

IamWonderful:
The APC they hated so much and tag Yoruba/northerners party is now their Messiah, this people with no direction and vision

Are you wise at all? How can Bubu promise a group the presidency? How many votes does he have?

Mylove55:
buhari promised them in 2019, and they still voted for thief atiku.
is too late.
Igbo will still wait till 2037

You nor well

favor914:
Sure the North is cheating the rest of the country, Useless Almijiri, Jonathan Ebele is from Southern Kaduna, Failure? Go & sit down somewhere, it isn’t too hard to see why you are a failure, very poor level of comprehension?

The North is cheating the rest of the country and this is a fact but the tide is turning! They did this due to long years of Military rule buy as long as democracy remains, the North will soon be put in their proper place! Buhari will be the last northern dominant president!

favor914:
Speak for yourself Failure, shameless thing, you are not ashamed to say you are a second class citizen in your own country?, Lazy bones, the North is cheating you? Are you also an Almijiri, Which Tertiary institution did you attend? Zombie.

Every state should manage their resources, that's the federalism we agreed at independence! North cannot use style to cheat the rest of the country

NGpatriot:
He was poorly informed, but he's been lectured appropriately.

So, who is the Zombie? You.

The CBN is not buying any gold from Zamfara state government, stop pedaling rumor and gossips.

We are not dependent on them. Tell me the food crop grown in the north that the south cannot grow? When a woman employs a maid to do laundry, it does not mean she cant do laundry but will earn more with her time if she pays someone to do it!

TheLionofLasigi:
okay, they're "selling" food to Nigeria..I only used feeding as it seems that the South is currently dependent on them for most of it's agricultural produce.

We are not dependent on them. Tell me the good crop grown in the north that the south cannot grow? When a woman employs a maid to do laundry, it does not mean she cant do laundry but will earn more with her time if she pays someone to do it!

You can only deceive zombies! The deputy Senate president confirmed the proposed sale to CBN!


https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2020/10/15/omo-agege-faults-zamfara-govs-sale-of-gold-to-cbn/

NGpatriot:
It's like asking me if the oil they drill out of the oil well belong to the oil companies like Shell, Chevron and so on.

Oil drillers get operating license from the government to drill oil, gold miners get operating license to mine gold.

The FG collects taxes and royalties off every oz of gold mined.

Zamfara is not selling any gold to the FG, they are storing the gold they bought as gold reserve, you and your own state too can buy gold and store it as gold reserve, it's perfectly legal, it's not a crime, it's a business opportunity.

It's not different from Nigerians investing and trading in oil and gas or operating petrol stations.

Instead of getting in there to take advantage of this business opportunity, the lazy governors are crying over nothing.

Their silly monday noise and y gathering will come and go without any effect or relevance beyond wherever they gathered to eat poundo and drink pami.

Useless and lazy governors still can not invest and tap into the oil under their feet, but they are wagging fingers at other people for tapping into the resources on their land.

So if for instance we import food produce from Ghana, you'll say Ghana is feeding Nigeria at a price? I have issue with the word feeding!

Feeding is absolutely not the right word, you can say selling!

TheLionofLasigi:
Sorry if it was misunderstood, they're feeding Nigeria at a price but it's not like we can't survive without them. Understand that all rice farmers in the north are not all northerners, there are also southerners who have rice farms in Niger state for example. the issue of pricing is partly to do with the exploitative nature of the average Nigerian, middle men and the border closure, even some farmers here in the South would still sell at the same price as goods brought from the north despite their farms being close to market, Aside from all this most youths here in the South aren't really interested in core farming and even if the border is opened we'll still depend on the north for most agric produce. If South really wants to compete it should go back to it's agricultural roots instead of building housing estate upandan

Stop using the word feeding Nigerians as if the food is given to Nigerians for free! Infact the North is exploiting Nigerians by selling above market price in the world. How can Thailand rice be over 50% cheaper and far more superior in terms of quality than Northern rice?

TheLionofLasigi:
Really if Nigeria divides today almost all regions will suffer in one way or the other, and I wouldn't say that the north contributes nothing to the Nigerian economy, in terms of agriculture they're practically feeding Nigeria but their leaders have failed to see the opportunity that agriculture presents and would rather interest themselves with SS oil, Boko Haram is currently collecting fees from farmers before they can harvest and their leaders are busy worried about EndSARs people, those guys in the past built groundnut pyramids and partly fuelled the Nigerian economy with agriculture, their leaders greed for power and extremist beliefs makes them fail to understand that they would be the biggest beneficiaries if Nigeria is restructured today...southern leaders on the other hand are no even better.... obasanjo spent 8 years in power but nothing really noteable was done in his region of origin. Southern leaders are just self centered fools

Your submission makes no sense! Zamfara went after what's in the land so how can oil states leave oil and go for gold in another state? There should be 100% resource control because what is good for Zamfara is good for other states. Same law of equality should apply

blackgold90:
I am from delta state and this is my position

The 6 Niger delta states should rather pool resources and invest in building a mega refinery to help the region and profit from it selling it products to Nigerians and for export just as dangote about to doing.

If a single billionaire can pool resources they too should do the same instead of crying over zamfara Gold.

First gold is not as profitable as profitable as oil,you can prospects for gold for jokey years and nothing will come out of it,that is why you don't have big companies like shell,Mobil,chevron in gold sector in Nigeria.

The minister of mineral resources has process of granting solid mineral license on gold and others solid mineral resource to interested companies and individuals,they pay about 5% back to govt.

If they are so jealous of zamfara gold they should form Niger delta gold company and collect licence from FG and go after gold in zamfara but I suggest they do oil refinery because oil resources is available to them.

What they are about to embark on is useless,rather I encouraged they to venture into gas and oil refinery where there is huge market than constituting nuisance and making jest of Niger delta.

Small them militant will take it over and they will be blame for it.

So the gold belongs to the approved miners? If it belongs to the fg, why are they planning to sell to fg again? Una think say only una wise

NGpatriot:
How are they scheming to steal anything?


They are buying gold from government approved miners, something your lazy and ignorant SS leaders and even you as a citizen can do, but illiteracy and lazy thinking bigoted leaders are too mentally and physically handicapped to do.

Have you or any of your lazy and incompetent governors tried to buy gold in Zamfara for reserve and prevented from doing so?

See, you're problem starts and ends with ignorance and illiteracy.

Why are you people so warped in the head?

SW will not agree, they are loyal to the fulani.

Amarabae:
Why not involve south east and south west governors since Abia, Imo and Ondo are all NDDC states?
Why not a joint southern governors meeting?
A Divided south!

If there was no contraption created by the British,
will the oil not still be in their ancestral lands? Is like Yemen asking what Saudi Arabia did to have their oil. Nigeria was conquered by Britain for their benefits, Nigeria never conquered any territory within Nigeria so they cannot claim any land by conquest!

Coldie:
Did she lie?

Tell us what SS People did to contribute to the oil in Nigeria apart from it being found where they reside?

So they bought the gold from fg approved contractors and wants to sell the gold to fg again? Why is the fg not selling the gold directly and sharing the money to all like petroleum is being administered?

NGpatriot:
Good question...


The lazy governors are just playing to the gallery to shorud their own uselessness and incompetence.

Zamfara is not mining gold and by law they can never mine gold, what they are doing is buying mined gold from government approved gold miners to store as reserve as economic invesment, something that these lazy governors and even common Nogerians can do if they so desire.


When was the last time these useless SS governors established oil and petroleum investments.

Do they have oil companies or any oil related investments?

All they do is sit around, collect allocations and 13% derivation for looting and stealing.


The lazy and useless one in Delta just vowed to never repeal the pension law in his state, the law that crooks and looters like Ibori are enjoying for life.

Pointing fingers and blaming the North for your poor performance and uselessness is getting stale and obsolete.

You too can buy and invest in Gold, there is no law in Nigeria against buying gold.

Tell these useless governors that Zamfara is not mining gold, they are buying gold from government approved miners.

I have this car

How ironic to have heart attack the moment when rescue arrived! He did not have the heart attack when Abacha was alive, treating him badly for 4yrs but had it when his tormentor was not more.....he could have been given a slow poison to coincide with US visits so US takes the fall and violence averted
