Aisha Yesufu, the convener of Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG) campaign, has lashed out at former vice-president, Atiku Abubakar, over his presidential ambitions.
Atiku on Sunday confirmed that he was returning to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), after he resigned from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Aisha, writing on her Twitter page, questioned the former vice-president’s integrity and character and claimed he was going back to his “vomit”.

She tweeted:

“Haba @atiku is it by force? Dont integrity and character mean anything to you?
“How can you vomit and and go back to lick it?
“Is it by force to serve Nigerians?
“Anyway its your right to do what you want to and our right to do what we want to.
“Time for a Macron in Nigeria.”

This dumbass donkey should have told the same to moronic Muhammadu Buhari when he ran for presidency of Nigeria for uncounted times from numerous political parties. This ignorant and painted sepulcher in Aisha Yesufu is one reason Nigeria should go into the heap of historical artifacts, via disintegration.

Does roachass think

How would he think when elected by bunch of goons?

Everything Okoroawusa has done to Imo State, the electorates from the state deserved every bit of it. People are opened to all sorts of political contingencies when their revered set of values are eroded by silly philanthropic tendencies. Rochas Okorocha was a con artist who bought his way into the heart of undiscerning onlookers in Imo State. I had been disappointed Okoroawusa did not appoint her as commissioner for concrete statues.

The more these IPOB youths live in sorry denial looking for one Igbo governor or Ohaneze to blame rather than think how to decisively tackle the FG, the more unfortunate the cause.

Your penchant for looking for "some" igbo person responsible for your plight instead of pointing at the Goliath standing in your way, the more ridiculous your story and excuse. Nobody said you should fight anyone, but at least be man enough to call the name of your oppressor than called Nwodo, Nwoye, Obiano, Rochas or Wike. You know none of those planned python to dance on you, yet you a re quick to "blame" them.

SORRY!

The fight for expediency of home land for Ndigbo should not be a deal for IPOB youths. It is an act of foolery to even insinuate that IPOB alone will grant the path to national home land for Ndigbo. I still cannot fathom how some ninnies in Nigeria or abroad still failed to see the hand of history in IPOB struggle. Anyway, the bush fire started by Nnamdi Kanu and the group of fearless IPOB is ominous raging. It is unfortunate that certain Igbo peeps have decided to crown themselves as fence sitters in the matter of independent home land for Ndigbo.

Copied:

When Nnamdi Kanu was hitting the Federal Government so hard, OHANEZE become so relevant and important to the ruling class and the media. Nwodo was sought after for interviews. OHANEZE thought it was about them, over rated themselves with the thought that they had arrived in the Nigerian scheme of things. They talked tough on restructuring, the FG gave them a listening ear and was bending towards restructuring . They thought the oligarchy tilting towards restructuring was their making not knowing it was about choosing the lesser evil.

Instead of giving their Malcolm X (Nnamdi Kanu) cover and continuing to use him to bargain for restructuring, they thought he was their stumbling block, they planned with the enemy and knocked him off the way.
To their own amazement, the OHANEZE relevancy
disappeared with Nnamdi Kanu. The media no longer remembers Nwodo's name, the restructuring that was all over the place faded away.

Lesson: Never join hands with the enemy to destroy your
own, no matter the circumstances.

By Freddie Ude

It is not only Ohaneze but the entire goon classes in the zoo called Nigeria. Fools hardly learn their lessons

present your candidate....where is he or she....??...

who is it?...am confused...

is it okorocha that you dont like or obiano that you dont like too...who is it...??...

you are demanding for things but you are not even ready for it....

Please do Ndigbo a favor, shove your idiotic Nigerian presidency where Sun light does not reach.

Muslim youths in Ekiti state have risen against the planned purchase and sewing of Christmas clothes for 20,000 children in the state by Governor Ayo Fayose describing the gesture as a ploy to elevate one religion over another.

The youth under the aegis of the National Council of Muslim Youth Organisations (NACOMYO), described the act as “unacceptable and a breach of Section 10 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended).”

Quoting from the section, NACOMYO said, “the Government of the Federation or of a state shall not adopt any religion as state religion" adding that the Christmas clothes for kids project was meant to promote Christianity as a religion."

The group noted in a statement by its coordinator in the state, Alhaji Tajudeen Olutope Ahmed, on Monday in Ado Ekiti that inasmuch as the group was not against any form of child welfare or development, it was worried that “our commonwealth as a state is being used to promote a particular religion and to placate the subscribers of the religion.”

It was gathered from an independent source that the project would gulp about N200 million. Fayose had during a broadcast on radio and television asked parents to bring their children to the Government House for measurement by about 200 local tailors already recruited for the project .

NACOMYO added that just as Christians look forward to Christmas and New Year, Muslims also look forward to festivals like id-el-maulud or id-el-fitri adding, “as the governor of all, he is expected to patronize both Christians and Muslims in equal measure.”

NACOMYO said further: “It is on the basis of the above that we hereby call on Governor Fayose to suspend his planned celebration of Christians and Christianity during the forthcoming Yuletide period.

“In the alternative, if the governor is determined to go ahead with his planned provision of Christmas dresses, he should disclose the budget for the dresses to the public and be ready to expend the same amount during the forthcoming Muslim festival. This is the justice of the matter.

They cautioned against using the state's resources for the patronage of only a section or religion, saying it was the responsibility of every parent to to provide dresses for their children and not government.

The statement added, “Ekiti State government should be more concerned about fulfilling her duty under the law, which includes that of prompt and adequate payment of staff salaries. In this way, parents will be able to make adequate care and provision for their children.”

Giving reason for the project, the governor had insisted that he conceived the idea to give Ekiti children between one and 10 years a sense of belonging and cater for the needs of the less privileged kids.

Assorted local fabrics of Ankara, Guinea and Kampala among others had been purchased by the governor and made available to the local tailors for the exercise.

Fayose said that every tier of government must endeavour to concretely cater for the needs of children, especially children of the less privileged.

Speaking at the official flag off of the distribution of the Yuletide clothes to the beneficiaries on Sunday evening at the Government House, Fayose also urged the kids to urge their parents to support his anointed candidate for the 2018 governorship poll, Deputy Governor Kolapo Olusola.

Fayose said: “As a government, we must be seen to be caring, not by mere saying it but by practice. Part of our duty is to give our kids a sense of belonging.

“We are bound to provide some happiness for them at a yuletide such as this. We are providing Christmas clothing for over 20,000 of our kids. We will raise it to 100,000 by next year as I am very sure the next governor will come from my party PDP."

Where were these moronic dingbats when Sharia was adopted in northern region of Nigeria by state governors?

NgeneUkwenu:
You are all warned!

It is either Atiku and PDP in 2019, or we go back to Our Biafra Agitation!

The Gworo Chewing Buhari, should note this!

Arondizuogu:
Historically speaking, blacks or rather American blacks are defeated people. Hundreds of years of oppression and lynching has turned American blacks dull. Blacks in U.S.A were hard working, yes we built the White House as slaves, we built their major railway lines as slaves and we built almost everything along with other minority in the US. One man I was talking to told me that the education given to black folks in USA means nothing. He gave himself as an example and said "I am a psychologist, how many black people visits psychologists?" We need to go back to when we produced things, black folks in US in the 60s and 70s were well better and great workers then white folks came with Thur hand outs and told them " divorce your husbands and get free housing and shit".


On Black Africans, the visitation of the white man spelled doom. All races especially Caucasians want one thing: the exploitation of blacks. That is what we are seeing now in China and Israel. Why are buddying us up now? China will promise to give you electricity that would be installed by its people and you take loans from them to finance it but in return we give them hundreds of years in mining contracts. I fear for us youths of Africa, our future have been mortgaged.
Britain was divide and conquer, they understood that family is the only thing we value, they started decimating our families and values. China Achebe was trying to tell us something in Things Fall Apart. His message was that wherever the white Man lands, things are never the same again.

No, the so-called American Blacks were not defeated but enslaved. The identification of human as Black streamed from slavery. Anybody who is slightly against slavery should equally disavows the use of the word, black for human. Even the idiots who fanned the flame od segregation by embracing "white and colored people" did have the intellect to recognize that "white' is also a color. The reign of idiocy and acceptance of inferiority complex had to be stopped. No human being is either "White or Black" but the idiocy that plays trick on the intellect of dunces. It is funny certain people tend use terms in sentences which they little or nothing about them. Does the writer of the above junk realize that natural feature called Caucasus Mountains in Western Asia? The inhabitants of the valley which was created by the Caucasus Mountains are called and known as Caucasians.

Something drastically need to happen in Nigeria for the crass idiocy to stop. In fact, Nigeria needs Jerry Rawlings type of treatment. What is the meaning of a governor providing SUVs to the members of National Assembly who are handsomely paid?

ezeagu:
And Africa is not human its a continent as defined by Europeans, again it doesn't matter what you want to identify by, the harsh reality is what you are identified by.

It is unfortunate you have the intellect to refer to certain people as Europeans and never had one that could spur you to refer people from Africa as Africans. Whether the Europeans defined Africa as continent or not, Africa is a continent equal in pedigree with Europe, Asia, North and South America. It is pertinent you refer to people who are native to African continent as Africans not the idiotic word, "Blacks". I am native to Africa and Nigeria hence had gladly and proudly identified myself as Igbo man and that is the reality. Anybody who arrogates Black to him/her self has inferiority issue.

For a mentally challenged person, the clue is "There was a Country".

This depiction of Africa, Nigeria and China could not be more correct. It is hilarious but truth.

These people are completely demented.

womenabuse:
It is not the responsibility of the government alone to empower women and girls and to eliminate impunity for all forms of violence and discrimination against women and girls. It is the responsibility of all and sundry.


You can become part of any programmes that tends to empower women and girls. Women and girls need to be empowered because God placed the live of human beings in their hands. Without them, the whole world will capside. Without them, there would be solution for poverty eradication because poverty is cyclical. If you cannot empower hundred, empower only one, because when a woman is empowered, the whole world is empowered. Why Country that is not willing to empower women and girls will not make any matching forward, that means that country is a total loser and would be shattered.


That is why so many countries of the world are where they are today. There is no any better secret of achieving economic growth than empowering women and girls because they are the pillars that hold the world. Women are the foundation upon which the world is built. No building can stand without a strong foundation or else the building will definitely collapse. For a country that stand firmly both in days of prosperity and in days of adversity, she needs the strong hands of the women. A country will renew their strength only if women and girls are empowered. Historically, no country around the world that has conquered its challenges without the invaluable contributions of the women. The poverty level of a country can only be eradicated by empowering women and girls. Recession, corruption, kidnapping and terrorism will only stop by empowering women and girls. Let’s all join hands to empower our women and girls.

https://chinedumiwomen..com.ng/2017/12/empowering-women-and-girls-is-everyones.html

Arrant nonsense!!! Empowering men, boys, women and girls should be everyone's responsibility. I hate to see in Africa this idiotic feminist idea which has turned certain societies into counter culture. This is how moronic set-asides and foolish discrimination started. A woman or girl should not be cared more then a man or boy. The principles of equality do not support the silly idea raised in the above post. It is unfortunate that Nigeria has ministry for woman and none for men. Yet when people look around Nigeria there are many young men with jobs rooming around hence armed robbery and social decadences in the society.

Alcatraz005:
Atiku irrespective of the corruption allegations hanging on his neck is a good candidate any day anytime who can give Buhari a run for his money already but he has a new problem:the igbos have already hijacked his campaign and seek to be made VP. With this problem, Atiku is already seen as an anathema in the SW, a very important voting block in Nigeria. The Hausas would also have an aversion to him seeing that the groundswell of his support is from the east.

The solution now is for Atiku to choose a VP candidate from either the SS/SW. I would urge he chooses his candidate from the SS as Yoruba already have the VP spot with osibanjo and it might not look well if another Yoruba man is chosen as his VP candidate. However, if Atiku chooses Fayose as his VP, Buhari would have a lot of problems as Fayose is Christian and more radical than the Pastor we have there now. The Atiku campaign with Fayose on the ticket can also play on the religious bias of the Buhari Presidency. That would give the campaign more gravitas and bite.

Conversely, if Atiku wants to end his political career in disgrace and lose very surely and easily to Buhari, he can choose an Igbo VP and incur the wrath of millions of Nigerians.

This is my own analysis of the Atiku conundrum in 2019.

NB: I have not addressed the problem posed by Obasanjo so I can be excused on that score.

Why are some fools in Nigeria think Ndigbo hunger for presidency of the cesspit called Nigeria?

Dalek:
Modaran, denial is a psychological problem

I guess you are not convinced that your so-called SE is equal to Igbo land

Guestlander:
Iboland is a fraction of the size of Yorbaland. You can yap all the grammar you want to yap and that fact will not change.
Your rationale is even wrong considering the fact that the economy of the SE is also negligible compared with other regions.

Who decided where Igbo land stated and ended? Or are you schooled on Igbo land through the idiotic maps produced by adversaries? No wonder Nigeria is perpetually behind of development.

Guestlander:
What I was merely pointing out is the fact that the two Koreas are ethnically the same, used to be one country but partitioned with each going a different direction.
It is not about rare intellect unless you want to argue the south Koreans became intellectually superior the moment a line was drawn on the map separating them from the north Koreans.

Are you overlooking the fact that one Korea chose to be democratically at home while the other chose to be communist and led by an authoritarian? The choice you make in life can be included in the measure of your intellect. Sometimes it is not fair but there is no absolute fairness in nature.

geraldmezi:
... In a country of blinds, Buhari is a king.

Any goat but Muhammadu Buhari.

Guestlander:
Korea did not start as a developed country, even China just 30 years ago was a struggling communist enclave.

Thank God you used Korea as an example because it gives us a clear perspective of what happens when a country populated by the same people is partitioned with each going their own different directions.
It is not about rare intellect, it is about choices.

You have stumbled onto the truth. Yes, when nations are stocked with ethnical differences, development is very hard to achieve. Size of a country most of the times is an irrelevant variable to the equation of development.

Nobody will vote for Okoroawusa and not even as a dog catcher.

Guestlander:
Given this your "Duru theory of Development" Can I therefore extrapolate that "with development" the bigger state with the bigger population will eventually outperform the tiny little state.

It takes rare intellect to start development. I guess your extrapolation could run into brick of walls if Nigeria and South Korea had to be used as variables.

If not that u guys love courting trouble, do u know that there is a supreme Court judgement of 1983 that unanimously ruled that Gelegele is owned by the binis and under the authority of the Benin Monarch? . Plz Google supreme Court judgement on gelegele

The Supreme Court that rendered such ruling was as idiotic as most Nigerians. Which Benin Monarch? The Village Empire known as Benin ended in 1897 and the so-called Monarch abolished and the significant representative exiled to faraway land where he died a painful death.

mbhs139:
You see my friend, I hardly comment on this forum, for obvious reasons, amongst which is the lack of decorum exhibit here. But I'm constrained to comment on this particular case this morning.

You see, I think the Igbos, in Nigeria, are politically naive. Unlike the Yorubas and the Hausas, how can you expect every Indigbo to belong to just one political party-APGA? No one wins a general election in a polarised country like Nigeria?

Take the SW for instance, before it used to be the AD, then it transformed into AC, then ACN and now the APC, all in their bid and effort to be relevant at the centre, aligning with friends and foes alike. Remember the saying in politics "no parmanent friend, no parmanent foe".


But the Igbos sees every other person as their enemies.

Well, this is my humble opinion and I stand to be corrected.

I guess you reek of naiveté. Obiano in the posted article was never concerned about Ojukwu's son joining any political party other than APGA but the falsehood Ojukwu's son narrated to the media. Political paranoia and parochialism cannot be described as political expedience. From AG to UPN, AD, AC, ACN and APC is a sign of political childishness instigated by tribalism. Such madness could only make any form of sense in a zoo such as Nigeria.
