Yoruba people should know that their mob attack against Igbo ministers (Okonjo Iweala, Stella Oduah, Allison Madueke, Stella Otteh) will no longer be tolerated!

If Mrs Stella Oduah financially enriched herself through cars bought by NCAA, provide the evidence and if not, LEAVE HER ALONE to do her job!

It is not a crime to be Igbo in Nigeria!

[size=28pt]WTF[/size] is this. This people just failed it.

That road has being a thorne in the flesh 4 all administrations who was ever in power in abia state since the beginning of time. I doubt it will ever be repaired and stay repaired.

Royal Roy: You see how politics is being played?

Later some little Anambrians will be sitting in his father's rented house in Lagos with his TECNO phone and be saying all sort of rubbish about who is in charge or not.

In this day and age, politics is not won by empty noise and assumptions....it is more of brain work and grassroot mobilisation.

May the best candidate win!!

Lol, so the former bench warmers come to speak to you people and u all rush to hear him spew trash, even knowing deep down within yasef that he won't do nothing worthwhile. U people should go and be deceiving yasef. Ngige will must probably win cos people seem to prefer him but then again thats nothing specials. It just confirms what our politicians know already of Nigerians. Nigerians have short term memory.

Shakes head and asks what is wrong with nigeria

Orlando Owoh: If you watched the programme, "Transformation Agenda" on NTA yesterday, that featured the Ministry of Aviation, you will, if you are patriotic, agree with me that the President won't sack the minister. She was painted in glowing colour on the programme, with the narrator mentioning the airports and the "transformation" that had taken place in them. Don't you think the aviation sector was intentionally shown to rub the gullible of any reasoning?

We will see, still some has to pay 4 her mistakes

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson]Who told you they were bribed?
Her good works is showing for her. She is loved by all Nigerians except for Hausas and Yorubas.[/color]

What ever, still she has made a mistake and someone has to pay 4 it

cjrane: Hehehehe....
But muslims don't assualt the sensibilities of Christians when they visit Mecca and Medina?

U can see the hypocrisy with some lf these islamic bigots. What is most annoying is that their people will believe them.

Really nice pix and commendations to the producers and organizers but its all yoruba/Edo gods and goddesses. That means Nigerian, cos Africa happens to be continent, I dont see gods from cameroon, South africa, kenya and other african countries. If we decide to bring home, i also don't see gods from hausa and igbo and there are really many of them. Still nice compilation but really misleading information.

Evy E: Sisters and brothers would a man show loyalty to the woman who has always been there for him when he had nothing or he would take her as a fool was a sucker and marry the one he met yesterday when things were already fine for him?

Why not

cjrane: Allison madueke is an Ijaw woman, married to an Igbo man. Just like Stella Oduah was formely married to an Urhobo man.

In Igboland,we accept women from other tribes married to our sons as our own daughters,even if those women were Yoruba!
My best man's mother is an Idoma woman, yet she has a chieftaincy title in my hometown!

Chief Emaka Anyaoku's wife is yoruba from Osun state, but Igbos have embraced her as their own. We are not like the yoruba people that will mistreat the Igbo wife of their son who had stayed in the marriage for more than 30 years and they will still call her "IGBO" !

Now that is not fully true. I dont know where u got ur information but that information is only held by old timers. A cousin of mine is married to a yoruba man and they practically adopted her into their family. She doesnt joke with her mother inlaw who initially gave her stress but not they are like 5&6. I even met them once arguing and u would have thought they were sisters cos they were joking with one anoda and jabbing themselves. It was matured and nice to see.

werepeLeri: This is not a topic or thread for gaari bull cra.p, neither is it for I am the first to post nonsense or for people who does nothing but to abuse.

Simply put - what is it in the black man that an average white man hates - what is the genesis of the hatred, why is it there - cant it ever be wiped out.

This is not a topic for Nigerian Americans who will tell you white doesnt hate black.

Why is this plague still spreading like fire everywhere?

Inferiority complex is ur problem

Alfa Seltzer: I can only pity the Igbo people that don't read their history. If you can't read, please ask someone that lived before the war to tell you the stories. If you trust a yorubaman, you are on your own.
Ironsi trusted Fajuyi. Betrayed
Ojukwu trusted Banjo. Betrayed
Zik trusted Awolowo. Betrayed

After the war Igbos started using long stick as you would with snakes and Hausa's took over.

Buhari trusted Idiagbon. Betrayed
Abacha trusted Diya. Betrayed.
Abubakar trusted Obasanjo. Betrayed
They even betray their own people!
Abiola. Betrayed.
Shonekan. Betrayed.
Awolowo. Betrayed.

gurnam:
How did Yorubas betrayed Ibos....? Answer that precisely or get the hell out of this community while bowing your flat head in absolute shame!

It's like a tribe's blood is synonymous with betrayal.

Thank u so much 4 taking us thru memory lane. It is well appreciated, really believe me it is but then u happened 2 miss an important fact. Are all these betrayers 4rm the moon. Where are they all from,...are they not Nigerians. What of the betrayed,...all Nigerians...right. U that read our history failed 2 see the most crucial part of our history,....that is that Nigerians betrayed Nigerians. Is similar things not happening now? Nigerians are our own worst enemies and we betray ourselves. When u remember that u will grow old. Igbos betray igbos, so do hausas betray hausas and ofcos yorubas betray themselves. What i don't understand on NL is the finger pointing, name calling and chest beating. Nigerians, know ur enemies,...remember they look like u and speak ur indigenous languages. Remember they are Nigerians too like u. We need 2 accept that we are the architects of our own problems, that way we can stop blaming other people an learn 2 manage our faults 4 the good of the country and a better Nigeria 4 our children.

[quote author= FreeGlobe]tatiana (I like your name btw), why do you keep pointing accusing fingers at me while asking me not to do same, its on record that every thing I write on nairaland are FACTS and I have NO apologies for them. I challenge you to point anything I have posted that is false and we can debate it. The truth is just bitter. Everybody knows tribalism is inherent in MOST yorubas but they quick to raise propaganda when they are paid back in their own coin.[/quote]

tatiana009: Generalisations are never right. Why do we get offended when other Africans say all Nigerians are corrupt? Because we know the actions of a few does not define a whole Nation. Same way you get offended when people say Igbos are kidnappers and such though it is true of some Igbo people but does that mean all Igbos are kidnappers?. Going by your posts I can as well conclude that all Igbos are bigots since that is what you exhibit however I choose to see you as one Igbo who is a bigot instead of accusing a whole tribe because of your attitude. Any way enjoy you life and continue to be a bigot if that's what makes you happy just remember that we will all answer to God for our choices and actions. Goodluck

In as much as i agree with u Tatianna but then FreeGlobe is also right in some of the things he said. Look no one is left out here, Yorubas as well as Igbos are quite tribalistic. Infact no ethnic group in Nigeria is left out of the tribal cancer or idiocrasy. Its left 4 we, not just as a people but also as nationals who don't want such trend 2 continue in our children 2 make that change now. Stop this tribal madness, enof is enof.

chima12: I have learnt not to take people like the opp seriously.the opp comes to tell us he is yoruba,he writes all these long lines claiming he abhors tribal politics.but where was he when fani kayode,an ex minister of yoruba origin was busy insulting Igbos online and on the pages of newspapers?the op never came then to write against tribalism.
Where was the op when there were threads about fani kayodes corruption during his time as minister?
Where was the op when iyabo,obj,lagos speaker are busy looting the national and state treasuries,tinubus great ponzi scheme in respect to the lekki concession?
The op was nowhere to be found,he never came here to talk about justice for looters,nor write against corruption,yes we know why,because all the culprits involved are yorubas.
When one sees the number of yorubas who come on the net to applaud fani kayode while he insulted Igbos repeatedly,you begin to wonder what kind of human beings yorubas are.the op never came here to write against tribalism then,yes we know why,because fani kayode is a yoruba man like you so either you applaud him,defend him but to criticize or speak against his actions and his hateful tribal writeups is out of the question for you.there are numerous threads on nairaland of yoruba govt officials like ifukuruji,the lagos speaker and how they are looting their states dry,I know you never bothered to write against all that corruption in southwest because those involved are your yoruba tribesmen,if you can't write or fight against corruption when the culprits are your yoruba tribesmen,if you can't protest against govt officials accused of corruption because the are your fellow yoruba tribesmen,then shove it,keep your epistles to yourself,we are not fo0ls,you need the sermon more than we do.

All those things u mentioned are irrelevant. Igbos, yorubas, hausas and u especially should learn to do what you say not do anoda thing while trying to make people believe u are holier than holy like Tinubu, Rochas and Buhari. Look, OP is right, enof is enof. These tribal wars would get us no where. Look, my parents where born in the south east, I was born in lagos and lived there almost all my life. I speak and understand yoruba. I don't consider my self south-west or south-east but rather from both places cos i was born 2 both cultures. Nigerians, let us try to be articulate. Let us pls remember that ethnic divide would only hinder our development and growth as a nation. Nigerians be wise.

Codedeben: Don't you people understand simple english?
This is purely "an attack from our detractors, APC" and its an "Act of God". SIMPLE!


This Akintuotu guy has sold out. He must be an APC member

When Fed Govt can not afford striking lecturers money, just imagine how much a single ministry was planning to spend on just vehicles alone. How many ministries do we have? Imagine each of them spending 1b naira only on UTILITIES.
You can see why we shouldn't blame the presidency for wanting to spend 1b naira on feeding.
when number of jobless graduates. Increases exponentially every 3 months.

This Onyejeocha check her background, she must be an Ofemmanumanu married to an Ibo person. She's an embarrassment to her tribe for saying this (oh pardon me I must have comprehension problem cos she said NCAA. Meanwhile, NCAA is autonomous, so the minister shouldn't be roped into this, she and her ministry wouldn't have had anything to do with the purchase)


Please someone should tell this man to go and sit down or does he want to be reminded that Fashola also bought 3 200million naira jeeps (maybe from Innoson since there's no documented proof)?

You people should leave this Madam alone, she has not done anything out of the ordinary. All these need to be done before we can actualise our dream of having more international airports in the country. Stop witch-hunting her. You should understand she has done what no1 has done, not even Prof. Dora or Okonjo.


I weep for the future of this country. We need leaders with conscience! And citizens who would always say NO to unpatriotic moves by our leaders irrespective of their ethniciity or religion.

Are u well, at all or u just want to be plain stupid. She messed up so she has 2 take the brunt.,...simple

Let them be washing their hands off the matter. As long as the right heads roll, we will keeping asking 4 justice..

I though hezbollah was still bombing Israel. Why is patience not there with him?

Well I was waiting to see then write NDA in the south but only saw northern states and these people are complaining. The idiots have had the NDA for more than 10 years on their backyard and have being putting ethnic and religious sentiments to hand pick candidates but now in their paranoia cost they feel the same thing they've been doing to other parts of the country has been done to them they are shouting fowl. Bandita....

Hope its true

Civilians resisting arrest is against the law.
Now the supposed up holders of the law are resisting arrest. Is that one against the law or within the law?

nuattitude74: To me, I've had an experience in the past which wobbled my trust for a really great girl I was involved with. I guess it left a scab on my psyche such that whenever I see/hear things related to the topic. I tend to ask myself questions and tell myself " it could be you". Thus, I hardly judge.

Have seen similar such things but that shouldn't make u give up on life, love and commitment. Life is too short 2 waste just straffing any antonie, doyin or amara. If u believe what will be will be, u'd learn 2 let things off ur shoulders.

Unless she has the intention of going online with her trash news, I would suggest she is wasting her time.

This kind of madness can only in Nigeria. In a sane country, the father would be asked to resign 4 making this grevious mistake.

The number of free Android apps that may be infected with malware this week has increased to more than 50.
Although some of these apps might look suspicious, others bearing names such as "Quick Notes" or "Chess" seem innocent enough, and you might not think twice about downloading them.

Tips for a Malware-Free Smartphone

Following are five quick tips to help you keep your Android handset free of malware.

Always research the publisher of the app. What other apps does it offer? Do any of them look a bit shady? If so, you should probably stay away.
Read online reviews. Android Market reviews may not always be truthful. Check around to see what reputable Websites are saying about the app before you hit the download button.
Always check app permissions. Whenever you download or update an app, you get a list of permissions for it. An alarm clock app, for instance, probably shouldn't need to look through your contacts. The general rule of thumb: If an app is asking for more than what it needs to do its job, you should skip it.
Avoid directly installing Android Package files (APKs). When Angry Birds first came to Android, you could get it only through a third party. This is called "sideloading," or installing apps using an .APK file. Although Angry Birds wasn't malware, in general it is highly advisable not to download and install .APK files that you randomly come across. Most of the time you won't know what the file contains until you install it--and by then it's too late.
Put a malware and antivirus scanner on your phone. Although many people still think that antivirus scanners on phones are useless, maybe outbreaks such as this one will change minds. Several different big-name security companies already offer mobile-security options, many of them free. I myself had downloaded "Spider Man," which is on a bad-apps list. My Lookout software identified it as a Trojan horse.

Also on the lists are the foreign-language apps shown at left.
Lookout Mobile Security, which provides security software for mobile phones, posted on its blog a list of 56 Android applications that have been infected with DroidDream, a new type of Android malware that roots your phone and gains access to as much personal information as it can. The apps also can open a backdoor, allowing more executable code to download to your phone without your being aware of it.

A few of these apps have already been downloaded by at least 50,000 users, making this one of the most widespread cases of Android malware to date. Although the apps in question have been pulled from the Android Market, Google is investigating them and has not yet moved to wipe them remotely from users' phones.

Lookout has issued an update to its mobile security software. If you have downloaded any of these apps, the company advises that you run its malware scanner and e-mail the Lookout support center. Mashable (which earlier today posted a list of infected apps complied by Myournet) suggests returning your phone to your carrier, as your data and security may be compromised.

With more and more malware emerging for the Android platform every day, users would do well to be careful and pay strict attention to what happens on their phones. You have to remember that smartphones are essentially computers--and all computers are vulnerable to attack by malicious software.

Which one is MEND now,.....what are they mending or was it the refinery they spoilt

berem: The earlier you stop parading yourself as a woman,the better for you. I see nothing absolutely wrong in the appointment of a female celebrity by Rochas. If it hurts you so much,tell your governor to do the same.

Dont support bad thing

The reply letter

A Freedom of Information response issued by Nigeria’s House of Representatives on how it spent N1 billion taxpayers’ funds it received for the conduct of the constitution review is fuelling another round of suspicions of fraud.
The House reacted to an FOI request by a Nigerian youth group demanding a detailed financial statement of the constitution review process.
The FOI request had four demands: requesting to know the actual budget for the constitution review, amount spent so far, and a financial statement of the amount spent so far. The request also included a publication of the voting records of the lawmakers on the constitution review.
In its response, the House admitted receiving N1 billion for the job, but said it had only spent N750 million, leaving a balance of N250million.
But the Reps’ response to the third question demanding a financial statement of the amount spent so far is what is fuelling suspicions of fraud, cover up and deception.
“We requested a financial statement, but what we got, we don’t even know what to call it,” Samson Itodo, the coordinator of the requesting group - Youth Alliance on Constitution Reform – said.
Rather than issue a document showing credits and debits, the House only pointed to general activities it spent funds on, without stating any figures or amounts.
For instance, as part of its financial statement, the clerk of the House of Reps Constitution Review Committee, Chinedu Akubuweze, who signed the response, said the House of Reps Constitution Review Committee “has conducted a variety of activities and expenditure covering the following: Peoples’ Public Sessions in 360 Federal Constituencies and other public hearings and engagement.”
He also said the committee spent monies on retreats, seminars, transportation, accommodation, data collation and analysis, and so on; but could not provide the details of the finances of each item, the crux of a financial statement.

Transparency Pressures
Nigerian lawmakers have recently been under pressure to publicise their accounts following years of spending public funds without publishing financial statements. A recent publication by The Economist magazine rated Nigerian lawmakers as the highest paid in the world.
The National Assembly, since climbing on to Nigeria’s priority first-line-charge institution (getting funds independently and directly from the federation account, just like the judiciary and executive) has kept details of its budget and expenditure secret.
The National Assembly approves its own expenditure with no known government agency auditing its accounts since it was put on the first line charge.
The actual official amount each lawmaker receives as perks is also shrouded in secrecy. A recent transparency protest by young Nigerians only succeeded in obtaining an obsolete payslip of the senators, containing only information on pay approved by a government agency that stipulates pay packages for public office holders.
The protest followed suspicions that the lawmakers secretly earn more, since their public earnings cannot support their lifestyles.
Unfair question
The House of Reps Constitution Review Committee is headed by its Deputy speaker, Emeka Ihedioha, placing him directly in charge of the utilisation of the N750 million credited to the committee. His office also could not offer an explanation.
An official of the deputy speaker’s office said it was unfair for PREMIUM TIMES to ask his boss if the committee keeps financial records.
“Ask Mr. Akubueze – the Clerk of the committee,” Oke Opia, the spokesperson for Mr. Ihedioha said.
Mr. Akubueze signed the FOI response that established the committee’s inability to explain how it spent the N750 million it received for the constitution review.
Mr. Ihedioha was unreachable on his private lines.
Not smart, covering up, not accountable
Young activists have criticised the House of Reps for not acting transparent enough in its response to the FOI request.
“When I saw first saw it – the financial statement – I laughed,” Olumide Samuel, who also participated in the recent transparency protest, said.
“Do they think we are dumb?” he asked. “How can this be a financial statement? They are possibly playing games with us.”
His sentiments are echoed across the young Nigerian activists’ community. Majority of young activists who spoke to PREMIUM TIMES believe that the House simply disregarded their intelligence by offering such “final statement.”
Others believe the House of Representatives does not have records of its expenditure of the constitution review funds.
“They seem to arbitrarily spend cash and no one oversights them,” Mr. Itodo said. “They possibly do not have records, or maybe they do not just want to be accountable to the public.”
The youth group plans to use the court to compel the lawmakers to compile and publish details of its expenditure of the N1 billion constitution review funds.
