I just hope and pray he is not one of those that promised to teach a particular tribe a lesson during last election.

I am sorry if the comment above looks harsh but with the recent happening in Nigeria, one would ask if TRIBALISM truly pays. An adage says that a goat lying down is lying on its skin.

The day we stop tribalism is the day we solve our problems collectively. Tinubu was never a candidate that deserved an office. His style of politics will always breed evil. How can someone preach snatch it, grab it and run away with it? That statement alone invites CURSE. God sees everything,. Its a big SHAME

You are perfectly in order, sir

Which party is ruling in kogi state again?

If you ask me, na who I go ask?

Rubbish.

The landlord of all drug barons is in Aso rock.

Why can't he be arrested?

No be my legs or the legs of any member of my family, una go deploy for ground.

They should deploy only ndi ofe legs and foots on ground

Naira done useless finish.
Almost 1trillion naira. This was Nigeria's national budget during PDP era.

APC people and their sycophants, god will keep pun**ishing you

Af*nja versus Af*nja

1. Marriage is between a man and his wife, not his family and his/her family have no right to interfere in their marriage or their divorce. They can come in to help their ward move his/her things from the marital home after a divorce but they have no legal right to come in to throw the other partner out even if the other partner is legally required to do so.

All that gra-gra barbarian sheet Nigerians are used to doing is reason why nothing seems tow ork of make sense. The sooner people begin adopting more civil ways of doing things, the sooner they begin to see common sense begin to reign in their lives and hopefully society.

I Finally Chose to Walk Away from My Marriage

After deep reflection and repeated attempts to make things work, I have decided to step away from my marriage for the sake of my peace, safety, and well-being.

For a long time, I have endured constant physical and emotional abuse from my wife. During disagreements, she often resorts to violence, slapping, hitting, and using hurtful words. On several occasions, she has even threatened me with sharp objects such as knives and scissors. Unfortunately, today, she carried out that threat and stabbed me in the neck. By the grace of God, it wasn’t fatal, but it was the final straw that made me realize I cannot continue living in fear.

Throughout our marriage, I have done my best to provide for our home and ensure we lacked nothing. Despite my efforts, I have never received her support, emotionally, mentally, or otherwise. I have never raised my hand against her, yet that restraint has often been taken for weakness, giving her the boldness to abuse me repeatedly.

My family, having witnessed much of what I’ve gone through, has now asked her to leave and packed her belongings. She has quarreled with nearly every member of my family and remains in conflict with them.

This decision to end the marriage is not out of anger but self-preservation. I am choosing to prioritize my mental, emotional, and physical health. I have nothing to hide and no intention to tarnish her image; I am only speaking the truth about my experience.

From this point forward, I am focused on healing, rebuilding, and finding peace again.

Am sure your ex-wife is a Yoruba woman

You married her @17 pa NED
Don't cry now because you personally brought this upon yourself . At your age you can't manage your home
At 65 you can't manage marital crises hmmmmm an elder state man and a senator.

Do you even have any home in the first place?

nedekid:
You guys just speak out of ignorance of the law and with emotions. Imagine what you are asking? Do you think Ned grabbed him and locked him in his dog karnel at home? There was an incident as his house which was all seen on video, threats were openly made, followed by further threats online, any wise person would have adviced those boys to the folly of their acts but would they have even listened while swimming in their ignorance. How do you openly make threats or enter a man's private residence without his authorization, not only that you cause chaos, do you know if that appended in Texas the owner of the premises would have been within his right to shoot dead the trespassers?
Anyway, it is within Neds right as a law abiding citizen to petition the police to investigate and act when he feels aggrieved, which is legitimate rather than taking the law in his hand unlike Regina's brothers. What those brothers should have done was to go and report to the police any issue the had with Ned, infact they should have gone with their sister to petition the police for discret investigation, that they did not do.
All those talk of Ned still wanting her is boloks, who is this brat compared to the kind of ladies the man has dated over the years? Bros, rather than all this sentimental, emotional online drama, if you know those Regina's siblings, tell them to get a lawyer, because once they are charged to court they will need one to get bail and defend themselves against the charges.

You are arguing with illiterates. It's a waste of time

Jman06:
This is injustice and gross abuse of power! Nigerians must rise up and challenge this obvious humiliation of a family. Remember the saying that injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere! Ned Nwoko, stop harassing Regina's family members!


#FreeSammy!

You and your family should rise up and go and challenge the injustice. Agbaako

Yawns







Ffffffffdfddddddd

Wike is spot on. The Christian genocide narrative is a cheap political tool from the opposition to discredit this administration. How can you claim genocide when the top security officials are from your religion?

Silly thread

Understanding the complex dynamics of ethnic relations in Nigeria is essential to address your question. The perception that Igbos are "hated and envied" stems from a combination of historical, economic, and political factors that have played out over decades, particularly since the colonial era and the Nigerian Civil War.
💰 Sources of Perceived Envy (Economic Success)
One of the most frequently cited reasons for envy relates to the Igbo people's remarkable economic resilience and entrepreneurial spirit:
* Entrepreneurship and Mobility: Igbos are renowned for their business acumen, high geographical mobility, and "can-do" spirit, which has led them to establish successful businesses and trade networks across all parts of Nigeria and beyond.
* Response to Dispossession: Following the Nigerian Civil War (1967-1970), many Igbos were stripped of their assets and savings ("Abandoned Properties". This forced them to start over, leading to a renewed focus on private enterprise and self-reliance, which further fueled their success in the informal and formal economy.
* Emphasis on Education: A strong historical emphasis on Western education gave Igbos an early advantage in the civil service and other professions across Nigeria before independence.
This widespread success in diverse regions of the country can lead to perceptions of competition and dominance among other local populations, fostering resentment and envy.
🏛️ Sources of Perceived Hatred (Historical and Political Tensions)
The perception of hatred is deeply rooted in Nigeria's turbulent political history, especially:
* The Nigerian Civil War (Biafra): The attempt by the Igbo-dominated Eastern Region to secede as the Republic of Biafra (1967-1970) remains the single most impactful event. The war and the preceding anti-Igbo pogroms (mass killings) in the Northern Region created deep wounds and distrust. For many Nigerians, the secession attempt is still viewed as a grave act of treason.
* The 1966 Coups: The first military coup in January 1966, which assassinated key political figures—including the Prime Minister and Northern Premier—was led primarily by young Igbo officers. Although their motives were complex, the event was widely interpreted, particularly in the North, as an Igbo-led attempt to dominate the country. This led directly to a counter-coup and the massacres that preceded the war.
* Post-War Marginalization: Following the war, the Igbo people experienced political and economic marginalization, with a relative absence of Igbos in top political offices and strategic national security positions, which they feel is a form of collective punishment for the war.
These historical conflicts and their aftermath contribute to lingering inter-ethnic mistrust and can manifest as resentment and even hostility.
📝 Summary of Underlying Factors
| Factor | Contributes to | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Entrepreneurial Success | Envy | High mobility and success in business and trade across all regions of Nigeria. |
| The Biafran War (1967-1970) | Hatred/Resentment | The attempted secession remains a point of deep historical and political contention. |
| High Educational Attainment | Envy/Resentment | Early and aggressive adoption of Western education led to dominance in the pre-independence civil service. |
| Political Marginalization | Resentment | Feeling of being excluded from the highest levels of political power since the civil war. |
It is important to note that these are generalizations about complex inter-ethnic relations, and a great deal of peaceful coexistence, intermarriage, and business collaboration exists across Nigeria's diverse groups.

American economy under Trump is not doing very well atm...!

Coupled with the new changes in the Nigerian downstream sector, Naira will definitely soar.

If they can sort out this insecurity, boost food production and exports, the economy will be on the mend for good.

The key word here is if they can.
Future impossible tense.
Nigeria was never designed to succeed.

Every Nkwo market day, you find irritants who have zero knowledge of what is going on in the Southeast giving their opinion and questioning Peter Obi’s stance on insecurity in the region, but we know what’s going on.

80% of the killings in the East has nothing to do with IPOB but political mercenaries or sponsored murderers who were activated to destabilize our region.

But as always, Igbos will recover from this.

We’ve recovered from worst.

Watch your mouth please
