Ttalk:
You just want to justify container economy you practice in your region.

Your Obi supermarket depends on importation of junks into the country and you want naira to appreciate.

Are you expecting a fiat pronouncement that will make naira appreciate overnight?

Let your charity begin at home and first tell your Obi to embark on building a business that will produce products that Nigeria can buy and export, stop blaming the president for the problem caused majorly by your brothers

Edited: I am sure calling out the hypocrisy of the OP and his Obidients brothers really touched your nerves hence your going gaga on my mention.

Just like I said your container economy is what has destroyed this nation and it is high time Nigeria consciousness is raised to address the monster caused majorly by a section of the country.

The government didn't placed a blanket ban on importation as the OP trying to portrayed and placing tariff on certain commodity is necessary to protect local industry and create employment.

How will tariff placement on alcohol, cigarette, fabrics and some basic grains that can be produced locally reduced the standard of living according to the OP.

His general contents comes from the position of unpatriotic stance and a traders mindset where individuals business of importation hurts the overall economy of Nigeria.

Today, the proponent of importation is good are the people dumping substandard products especially pharmaceutical items and drugs that are killing Nigeria in the name of importation into the country, empowering foreign industries while destroying the local ones and creating high unemployment and weak currency.

Hypocrites

Listen Reno,you very Well would have perfectly understood his prognosis on balance of trade but because you're drunk with Bigotry your head became beffuddled!!

Was he talking about blanket importation? No!! Did he infer that Alcohol,cigarrettes and such trivial imports be allowed?No?? Why then did you bring Alcohol importation and the likes into it?To discredit the write-up? Why? For What? Is the write-up about Tinubu or is it about the general malady in Nigeria's Import/export regime since a long time ago??

Bro,your being clever by half can never and will never go Well for you!!

You are dying slowly of Bigotry while they are moving on...

Depriest2020:
Tinubu is a forgiving man, in spite of all what Reno said about him. He knows how to play politics. I pray our Igbo brothers learns how to play politics without emotions, forgive and move on.

It's easy for Tinubu to "forgive" politically because he got justice and equity and fairness by finally achieving his lifelong dream!! If Tinubu had failed the election he will definitely remain "bitter" towards Reno and others..

If your Igbo brothers are "bitter", may be...just may be...their "bitterness" is directed at those bigots,tribalists and religious Extremist who always make "bad" electoral choices.(Buhari and Tinubu) due to the biases I mentioned earlier.... even when the signs are there ab initiio....

Then again they may be... "bitter" because they have been denied Justice,fairness and equity by Excluding them in the Rotational Presidency formular between the North and South....despite almost single-handedly bringing developements to every corner of the country....and despite their overwhelming self-belief in their ability to be the ones to turn around the country If one of them becomes the President!!

And when they seek relief from the disappointment of a "failing" and "unjust"country by desiring to have their own country,they are refused!!

If na you wont you feel "bitter"??

Especially If your business turn-over is reducing,cost of food,provisions,services,transportations climbing;Fulani herdsmen,Terrorists,organ harvesters,Kidnappers,bandits and unknown gunmen reigning freely..

Why you no wan understand this people bros?na witchcraft?

Isn't that the witchcraft trying the country down?

CommonSense1967:
Advice Akpi and other your blodas to stop raping underage girls in your region like they do in Aba baby factory then come on social media to make excsue by pointing fingers at Northerners.

#Commonsense1967,Hope you are not a Kid bro?Watch out so Bigotry won't Run you into serious problems in this country

Cos only a Kid won't care the consequencies of sounding foolish,ill-informed,silly and mischievous...as long as they let NEGATIVE emotions and sentiments lead them...

Now did any "Underaged"Girls come out...with evidence...to accuse Akpi of "Rape"? Do you have any kind of proof that Akpi raped any Underaged Girls??

So why're you telling me to "advice" him about what never and can never happen??

It's only and only in the North...with millions of evidence... do such ignoble acts of sleeping with or marrying little Girls as young as 11yrs happen

It has to Stop!! Don't justify it or deflect accusation by manufacturing correlations that don't exist!!

You're not a Kid!!

By the way,Akpi as We know him,was only messing around just to trend as he LOVES to do.That's what he's saying.

There was no "disvirgining" a 15 year old anywhere!! And YOU know it!!

Therefore take heed not to continue to intentionally be a nuisance to yourself...to anybody...anywhere...especially on this platform...

Nairaland is designed to self-regulate so learn to be censoring or editting your mouth before talking here.

Commonsense is not common as you think

Which wives of Ojukwu and Obi are Underaged?Are you intent on sounding silly and mischievous and provocative or what??

Do you know Bianca and Mrs Eno at all?

In Your desperate attempt to defend Northerners marrying little kids as Young as 9 years,you choose to bring yourself so low to make ALL those infantile allussions!!

Advice Northerners to Stop marrying Underaged kids.It's a criminal offence; morally and legally

[quote author=CommonSense1967 post=135556160]Pedophile.

Ojuwkwu and Obi married underage girls, but you love to cry out about these Northerners as if it doesn't happen in your area too.
You can marry underage girls in many countries, even in the US.. In some States, the parents just have to give consent.
You cannot have sex with an underage girl whom you have not married. That is considered RAPE.

Dr. Ben Carson's mother, Sonya Carson, was 13 years old when she married his father, Robert Solomon Carson Jr.
Till this very day, in some States in the US, you can marry an underage girl with the consent of the parents.

These states technically do not have a lower age limit, although they require parental consent and/or judicial approval for minors to marry:
California
Mississippi
New Mexico
Oklahoma
States with a Minimum Age of 15
Hawaii
Kansas
States with a Minimum Age of 16
Many states have a minimum age of 16 for marriage with parental consent.

These criminals are always looking for excuses once they are caught. This guy should be locked up for RAPE.[/quote

Putindbutt:
For 15years running yet you can't stop hating Lagos state, Tinubu and APC but your hypocrisy can collect the appointments and positions from the same people you hate. Can you show us any non-ibo Vice Chairman in the SE talk less of 15 consecutive years.

Oga you people should Stop this Childish comparisms of SE Yorubas and Lagos Igbos;

How many are Yorubas in the entire Igboland? Not up to 00.2% of the RESIDENT Population (SouthEasterners at home are about 38 million)

But Igbos in Lagos are not less than 40% of the entire Lagos Population!!And at Ojo LG, They are about 58% of the Population.

So where do Yorubas Gather the numerical strength for Political negotiations in the SE

Then how much are Yorubas contributing in Tax revenues in the SE(with the Yorubas Population of less than 00.2% in the SE)

But Igbos Contribute 65% of Tax revenues in the Lagos state IGR!!!

So where do the Yorubas Gather the Economic strength for Political negotiations in Igboland??

I can go on and on....

So any time You and your likes wants to agitate for Political and Economic RECIPROCITY for Yorubas in SE always Remember this differences in Circumstances...

Lagos was...and in fact still is...the CAPITAL of Nigeria even before all of us where born.Hence it's Special status as Nigeria's cultural melting pot.SE was not.

Stop using an ill-thought out excuse of RECIPROCITY as reasons other Nigerian's should not enjoy their constitutionally guaranteed rights at their states of origin.

You no go school?

Dennisochampa:
If Peter obi is allowed to pick what he comments on, why am I not allowed to question why he picks on others but those that happen in his state??

No be only your hand go fall....

You definitely must be a child...less than 30... and you're obviously new here.

Take heed bro...

Read news regularly,be current and socially concious.Reflect thoroughly and rein in your sentiments before rushing to comment here on Nairaland....

I repeat...Make Dem no fall YOUR hand here big time

How does Tinubu really Pull all these Magic...every time??

Political scientists need to understudy this man; Machiavelic art of total state capture occassioned by astute statecraft!!

Opposition figures needs to be in on it so as to devise strategies for counter measures....if they can

Dennisochampa:
I'm waiting for Peter obi comment...

If this happened in other parts of Nigeria, he will be quick to wail and mourn and send out condolences..
Now it's happening in his own backyard..
I hope he does the needful....

I know he's not the president for those stupid obedients who will come and tag their fathers...
If he's not the president, he should shut up and let the security forces do their jobs...
Not to always carry out selective criticism all the time....

So this is what you signed into Nairaland for; to come and constitute nuisance here,right? Please we don't wellcome silly,childish and ill-informed comments here!!

How do you expect Peter Obi or Tinubu or even the Governor of Anambra State to CONTINOUSLY comment on EVERY single social malaise EVERYDAY...wether it's a case of suicide,car crash,murder,robbery...which happens everyday,you expect Peter Obi to comment!!!What a shame!

Respect your age here bro.

If you must TROLL Obidients find a better opportunity or a meatier thread to chase after them,not this Petty type.

You fall hand bro

dequir:
It is easy to crack silly statistics without facts.

Stop deceiving yourself, the facts state otherwise.

Which "facts" states otherwise from what I posited above....

It's either you're a Kid less than 40 years of age or not really Educated with the recent political history of your country!!

It's a shame the kind of Kids I see on this forum!! I can't believe you didn't know all these incidents happened!!

olaolaking:
Begging kẹ̀? Maybe they are begging to dash their birrions out because everyone is birrionaires here? This is ewedu gulping and Lagos ibadan expressway reporting from iragbiji 🤓🤓

Please do well not to be making yourself sound childish on Nairaland;

Those beggars are people from Northern Nigeria.They have always been there but their influx got worse in recent times due to the fact that they are fleeing insecurity.

Not knowing this is pure mischief.Take note

JohnAOne:
Will not read your rubbish, but I know it was an INSIDER job, a spill out from the miracle centres debacle in the South East, and "Mmesoma".

My last reply to you.

JohnAone....Sometimes try and cut yourself some slack bro.Try and always remind yourself that you are no longer a kid and that you have the character of a civilised,exposed and educated person....

Don't let anyone or any sentiments reduce you to who or what you are not!!

.... because I don't understand why you choose to DETRACT from the well-known fact that the reason for the proposed resit of Jamb is due to TECHNICAL GLITCHES at the ICT Department.What has that got to do with an old story about a young jambite called "Mmesoma".Is she the head of Jamb( who has already tearfully apologised for the errors?) Or did the Jamb registra tell you the glitches is due to "Miracle centres"?

If it's because you only want to troll them back then do it at the right thread,not this one.They are on top of this one;for example you'll be reminded that Igbos are clearly always on top...being the first and the best in Jamb,Waec,Neco,etc.....wether they are writing the exams at Ifo,Lagos,Shagamu,Edo,Kaduna or Oyo or in the SE or SS.

So please choose your battle wisely; timing is everything.Or better still ignore them entirely for the sake Y(our) mental health on Nairaland

TheWebbers:
I loath Yahoo boys with passion. But how did they know the guys were Yahoo boys. From the information here, the ran away after killing those people. Did they carry megaphone and announced to the public that they are Yahoo boys before fleeing?

They could be bankers, engineers, plumbers, barbers, anything but you chose to call them Yahoo boys.

By their looks(age,appearance,aura)you should know them...except you wan take style argue!

However,Yahoo boys modus operandi of killing and shedding blood of people at road intersections....for ritual purposes.... are now a very common occurrence....

Only you do not know these technique of human sacrifice at Road Junctions...

It's time everyone join hands to wipe out Yahoo boys from our midst or else....

Putindbutt:
When Anambra was in the top scorers during Obiano's tenure and also under Soludo, did you give them the credit? rather, you would be giving Obi the credit. So, Obi must also collect the blame now too.

Please go through this your comments again and REFLECT on your type of person.

Didn't you care that you sounded childish and silly??

Please reflect..

iHart:
What if we look at the rank from another perspective; States with the highest number of special centres?

Don't comment based only on Guesses,conjectures and assumptions!!

You have never been to the SouthEast to anything about Special Centres!!

Anyways,there's no such things there..

Talk wetin you know

FreeStuffsNG:
'Miracle centre ' things

Na mischief be dis??

Abi na unadulterated bileness??

Bitterness

Crass envy...

..and withcraft.

Pray,how can you see a CONSISTENCY for the past 10 to 15 years with these SE states and you damn well know that WAEC or NECO has Zero tolerance for such silly centres....which,by the way,are only mostly found in Lagos and never in the SE...yet you shamelessly try to disparage the CONSISTENT Igbo states because you're a Bigot,no bi so?

What a shame

Slytiger:
Interestingly, the girl that was in the picture the man referred to used to be in an IDP camp in the North and she is from Adamawa State.

But some people are quick to call others tribalist even when they gave one man from their own region over 90% of their vote, while the ones they call tribalist only gave their own kinsman around 50%.

But they gave Obasanjo 90% of their votes in 1999 and abandoned Ojukwu and their other brothers from other Parties....

They gave Shagari and Ekwueme 90% of their votes and abandoned Zik!!

They gave Yar'Adua 90% and abandoned Umeh-Ezeoke and their other brothers in other parties...

They gave an Ijaw man 90% and abandoned their own of other parties and roundly rejected Buhari 5 times!!

Why?

Unlike others,they have a knack for smelling failures and bad choices ahead of time...

If Osinbajo had contested with any of their own....apart from the brilliant and classy Obi....they certainly would have voted Osinbajo!!

Bro,you see these people,free them from your heart and mind so you can have a better life and a better country.

Otherwise...

...

Listen Carefully....

"Northerners" only exist in the imaginations and wishes of the Hausa-fulani muslims....especially with the Politically exposed ones!!

In reality and in SPIRIT and truth,the indigenous Christian tribes of Southern Kaduna,Plateau,Benue,Taraba,Adamawa,Kogi and Deborah Samuel's state of Niger can never ever see themselves as the type of "NORTH" the Hausa-Fulani wishes!!

Therefore the "North" is not dominating the National Assembly.(only 30% are Hausa-Fulanis...we saw that during votings in Jonathan's 2014 conference)

The "North" does not own the FCT (it is an amalgamated land of the indigenous Christian Gbagyi's,Eggons,Igbiras and Tivs).

Those years are gone when the notion of a "Powerful North" used to scare the Southerners; Obasanjo used the real regional powers to defeat Buhari in 2003,Despite the ferocious backing of the Muslim North,Yar'Adua Did same in 2007,Jonathan again floored Buhari in 2011.If Not that Tinubu stepped in to HELP Buhari in 2015 by mobilising most parts of the South and the indigenous Christian middle-belts, the Hausa-fulani man would still have been defeated in 2015!!

Therefore if the Muslim Northern Leaders continue to use deception to try to continue their desire for political domination come 2027,even the Igbos will set aside their yearnings for political justice and fairness and massively support Tinubu!!(This is already the sentiments in Igboland as I type this)

They better SUPPORT a Southerner come 2027 or risk being clearly and finally demystified

blamingthedevil:
Reno is absolutely right. In the accounting profession, we apply key concepts such as materiality and substance over form when evaluating the significance of information. These principles remind us to focus on what truly matters in context, rather than just appearances or technicalities.

The countries mentioned by others, while notable in their own right, are relatively immaterial when compared to the country listed by Reno — particularly when evaluated in terms of size of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and geopolitical influence. From an economic and strategic standpoint, the difference in scale and impact is substantial, and it is important we maintain that perspective when making comparisons of global relevance.

You spirit of CONFUSION, I command you to leave that body right now!!

Leave!!!

Pray,what have you made this man say??!! What did he mean to say to the ordinary reader like me??

Flee from that body oh ye devil lest he continue #blamingthedevil#

Jagabanbattle:
Imagine having man like wamakko supporting you and some political ignorant people will believe Tinubu is losing North in 2027

Even Labour Party vice presidential candidate about to Decamp. What next?

Jagaban borgu. Akanbi omo olodo idę.

Ekun Oko Oluremi Tinubu

Don't delude yourself bro....

Senator Magatagardda is no longer a supporter of Tinubu....just as Datti's brother Hakeem Baba-Ahmed is no longer working with Tinubu...

If you're not on Nairaland to be deceiving yourself you'll easily know why Kwankwaso and Peter Obi's running mate were called for talks.

But grandstanding won't let you see!!

The Northern political firmament has made up its mind against Tinubu since November 2023!!

Magnificenttop:
Just like a prophet, I could remember Nnamdi Kanu foretold it years ago that a time like this will come, now it's already happening the way he said it will be.

As an IPOBist you were only focused on Nnamdi Kanu's comments and analysis...

You were not listening to better Political analysts and commentators predicting the same things on Channels,Arise,News Central and AIT years before you ever knew who Nnamdi Kanu is.

You also have not been reading Newspaper Columns were Nnamdi Kanu gets his analysis...

I pray for you and your likes today; may the spirit of Narrow-mindedness depart from you henceforth so that you wont be bearing Narrow-minded ideologies and Hero-worshiping Narrow-minded Heroes.May your mind be open that you may RELEARN,unLEARN and LEARN from wider sources so as to broaden your mind for better decision and choices in Life...

Amen

SoftSport:
Falana just likes talking big on TV, but when it's time to face real action, he always dodges.

What are you really trying to say?

Do you know Falana at all?

It was the ACTIONS of people like Falana,Gani Fawehinmi and others that brought this DEMOCRACY and small HUMAN RIGHTS some of you are enjoying today....especially the clueless childish ones on social media...hope you are not one of them.

Falana brought Nigeria to this Manageable level of socio-economic and political civilisation.

Politically Nigeria used to be Worse than Sudan and Somalia during the Military era;

People....activists,journalist,Polticians were being killed or imprisoned for their views against the tyranny of the millitary;Ordinary civilians were being brutalised,flogged,kicked and maimed for even only not saying "Hi" to a soldier on the road;

unbriddled corruption,profligacy and debauchery was the culture.

But Falana and co came to our rescue.Today Tinubu and Wike are benefitting from Falana's sweat.

I'll forgive you if you're a KID who doesn't know Falana. But if you truly know Falana and what he means to ordinary Nigerians since forty years ago...but chosse now to attack him because he maintains his TRUTHFUL position on things...which doesn't sit well with the DEMONS in you.... then you need to be UNSHACKLED from those demons; for the demons are trying you and Nigeria down!!

PressMyButton:
The man in power is aware of their game and he's ontop of it. It's the same pattern, they don't have any other new plan except this old satanic bloodthirsty game plan. But they are messing with the wrong guy, this is not Goodluck Jonathan, this is Jagaban. Something tells me Jagaban is planning something big that will shock everybody.


After God, na Tinubu 💪 God bless Nigeria.

Are you intentionally grandstanding in order to just enjoy "likes" from...God knows who.... or are you wishful-thinking??

"Something tells you Jagaban is planning something big that will shock everybody"

Really?

With Fulanis as National Security Advisers and top military commanders working in cahoots with fifth columnist in the (in)security situation...and with Tinubu fearful for his political future with the Hausa-fulanis...and his tendencies to always leave security matters to Shettima while retreating abroad.... you want us to believe that "Jagaban is planning something big that will shock the Nation"


Hahahahahaha....

You have scammed yourself not us!!!

Namaster:
Dude is trying to use one SCAM (religion) to support another SCAM (Ponzi Scheme).

To Continuously reffer to Religion as Scam shows that the Devil has Scammed you already!!

You are fatally ignorant bro!!

In fact you even lack Emotional intelligence to the sensibilities of Billions of Believers in Religion Worldwide.... for constantly and openly seeking to ridicule and denigrate a Practice that has Positively shaped our Destinies.

Pray, is it Religion which has ushered in material and non material civilisation that you keep mocking?Are you sure you're thoroughly EDUCATED?

Is it Religion which has tightened the MORAL Fibres and engendered SOCIAL ORDER in human societies that you keep thrashing?When you're not a misecreant!!Where's your learning and the Character that comes with Learning?

Is it Religion that has TAUGHT man how to harness the ABILITIES of his Spirit so as to control the COSMIC forces to his advantage that you are toying with? When you're not a baby?

Is it because you're a completely lost Atheist.....or really ignorant about Religion.... or ONLY focused on a few cases of ABuse of Religion that you chooses to insult Religion?

Insulting Religion....

Which normal person does that?

Goodnewsforlife:
when obi was governor, he also stopped el rufai from entering Anambra so it's payback time.

U people also celebrated when bayelsa governor stopped wike from coming to his state.

U Igbos don't know your hypocrisy will nail u to d cross

Obi never Stopped El-Rufai from coming to Anambra!!! That was just a Kite flown by APC through El-Rufai in the 2023 Elections.The truth later came out When Obi visited Northern Leaders in Kaduna during the run up to the Elections.El-Rufai was at the Meeting.He agreed Obi wasn't the PDP Leadership who used their Federal might to stop him from doing an Election duty in Anambra!!That is Why El-Rufai is now desperate to work for Peter Obi

Bro, you know this new truth but choose not to go with it because it won't serve your bigotry against Igbos!!

By the way,I was only trying to Correct an earlier Misinformation that the incident in Benue never happened....how then did you derail to start Championing Vengeance and Vendetta?If somebody you're "better than" does something wrong are you not supposed to show the person a better Example as a "better" person that you are.

How do you guys allow the demons of ethnic BIGOTRY in you REDUCE your humanity and keep Nigeria crippled!!

Bro,let me tell you the truth; if Ethnic or Religious bigotry continues in Nigeria...especially your type against Igbos...no MIRACLE will ever make Nigeria work!!!

Nigeria must search out and hunt down your type for the country to thrive!!

Salewa97:
This is very pathetic from Obi.

How will a governor who is a priest issue a statement preventing you from visiting his state? Is it not obvious that you are trying to politicize your visit?

But it happened!!

It's already everywhere in the news before Obi sent out this statement!!!

And for you to think Obi made up this story shows how uninformed and uninitiated you truly could be...

tundegan:
Peter Obi's supporters are the most toxic set of people on earth

What has his supporters got to do with the fact that the APC Govt of Benue do not want Peter Obi to reach out to those in need at the IDPs as he has always done??!!

Is it Peter Obi's supporters that are stoping Peter Obi from coming to Benue? Is it not the Benue governor and his cohorts in this instance that you should call "Toxic"

By the way,why are you misguided entities and the faltering segment of the electorates not ever FOCUSED on Peter Obi Himself;his potentials,his character and capacity and vision and mission for Nigeria....and disagree intelligently with him if need be...why focus on his "Toxic" supporters??

Must the election of quality leadership in Nigeria always be SACRIFICED at the altar of clashes between supporters of different political tendencies? Especially on Nairaland!!

Na wa For your type oo

If it's a Witch-doctor muttering incantations you'll not call it Charlatan

But here,a FIREBRAND Christian employs one of the most powerful weapons used in taking control of the cosmic forces, your IGNORANCE calls it "Charlatan"

Is it his fault that you're untrained and uninitiated in the deep things of God?
