Shoir...





Ralph Uwechue was the President General of Ohaneze Ndigbo. He is from the same local govt as Ibe Kachikwu. Is he not Igbo too?"

Don't mind some people...He is a correct Igbo man...Nwa afo Igbo. No particular Igbo tribe is better than the other. It's geographical creations that divided the land of Igbos. There are Igbos in Rivers, Delta, Kogi, Cross Rivers, Imo, Anambra, Abia, Enugu, Ebonyi. Let no one mislead you...with Biafra thing.

I like her courage. Standing to what she believe.
The time has come when those who truly love Christ will show it by their actions.
It's not enough to be a nominal Christian...

Change is gradually coming to Nigeria in trickles.
It's been long since one heard such good news in Nigeria.
I know that when Buhari comes and hit the ground running, so many things will fall in place.
Nigeria will start working again!

Jonathan's Presidency was a complete disaster from top to bottom.
It was full of so many blunders. He (+team) lacks wisdom and intelligence in handling crucial national issues.
He'd set Nigeria backwards and nearly would have crashed the nation. National security & economy is in tatters.
This is a classical case of an event that ends with people saying ' NEVER AGAIN!'
I am not bidding him any fare well because we Nigerians have not fared well under his govt.
GMB should start the national cleansing from GEJ govt backwards.

GEJ is a huge disappointment.

Never again should we make such a mistake as a nation!

Horrible!

why the sudden need for refinery? Will the refinery be built in a month before may 29? Wouldn't it be wise and expedient that they wait for the incoming administration and look into their plans? Is this move not ill maked,as it will further affect our economy and the poor masses?

It baffles me too!

There days in power are numbered...

Thanks be to God

Wsdm:
The South-South where Jonathan hails from are even extremely more matured than their counterpart in the South East. It seems Jonathan has been used to a point of despiration by these people- the reason they are so pained. Governor Nyako had said that the war against the Boko Haram by Ihejirika led army was a retalliation of the civil war against the north. I am begining to see this as true. Anyway, let us wait for a sane government to take charge; who knows, there may be much that we have not heard. The greatest enemy of Jonathan are the Igbos and Jonathan may soon realise this fact. When Buhari and the save Nigeria Group were busy protesting against the Yar'adua cabal, where were the Igbos?

Hatred is not good ooo. Let it not be a habit!

omoharry:
Then I believe Anambra, Onisha , Enugu,Abia and some other Igbo commercial State are no mans land too, since All Nigerians from all ethnic group reside there.... I am from the Niger Delta....I will not support what is bad... please... do not do in another man land what you know you would never stand or tolerate in your own land... please. You are free to travel to Lagos since you are a Nigerian, work and pay to your tax since you reside there... build your house there since you are equally a citizen of the country and other right given to us as a citizens to leave freely in all state of the federation but that should not give you the right tell the indigenes of Lagos that its a no man land... by doing that you are bound to steer up bitterness among Locals of the state...election is over stop all this madness please

Nice one!

PassingShot:
With due respect, I disagree with the bolded part of your post.

Tell me Igbos are industrious, I will agree. Tell me they are adventurous, I will agree. But tell me they're relatively peaceful, it is a hell "NO".

If they are not peaceful then which tribe is peaceful. Which tribe is saint here!

disumusa:
pls tell me any tribe that igbos love

They love all tribes.

Not again...so even Africans hate themselves like this.

May be one day oyibos will chase Africans out of their land.

How civilised are we?

GEJ indeed made so many mistakes and kept on fumbling...till date.

I don't know where to start but I am terribly disappointed on how he handled corruption. He practically killed EFCC!

It was a looting spree...

Congrats to AMBODE

Na wa ooo! Evil abounds.
But how manage you allow her to take all your kids out when she's barely 24hours with you.
For me I can't trust people like that.

Nutase:
This is a very silly comment oga blogger. I have loads of respect for you but this is poo. Was he angry with them because they voted according to their beliefs? Is he their father or their conscience that he should dictate how they should vote? The beauty of democracy is in the freedom of choosing your leaders. Democracy is a game of numbers not a game of intimidation and bitterness. If GEJ was like him this country would have been burnt down.
If God almighty who has all the power in the universe does not force us to do what he wants then nobody including a power drunk mortal should not even attempt it.

Well said! Q.E.D!

Enough ! Stop inciting people against other for no reason. Be civilised and do think of PEACE! That's what we need.

Justfollowit:
That is what is happening. The Igbos have been shouting Agbaje and PDP while the Yoruba's have been all about Ambode.

I hate Nigerian politics

I haven't see them shouting so I am afraid.

Don't see it that way dear because as of recent OBJ was still a PDP member not to talk of other Yoruba leaders, likewise APC has transformed from originally Yoruba party (ACN) to national party (ACN, ANPP, APGA (Rochas faction), CPC) and has won power at the centre.

Let us allow this wind of change to work and not pull down the little democratic gain on platter of tribalism and confusion.

Let everyone vote whoever he or she prefers. Let the best candidate win.

The Oba made such an expensive and regrettable mistake. He wouldn't have made such comment.
And I strongly believed he was not joking.

So sad about the ethnic profiling.
I doubt if it's only Igbos that does piracy.
Is there no government agency responsible for dealing with this problem?

Justfollowit:
He made the statement because he is human

Agbaje is a Lagosian but you and I know that he is being pitched against the Yorubas. The issue of both contestants is that they represent Igbo and Yoruba populace in Lagos. The igbos want Agbaje but the Yorubas want Ambode. Unless if you want to pretend that Lagos in practice is a no man's land, will you fail to see the issue with Agbaje candidacy and the party he emanates from.

I disagree completely. Both candidates needs everyone's vote. Don't pitch Igbo against Yoruba for no reason.

Oba Akiolu missed it...and was talking as if he's god.

We are not under monarchy or military government and why such threat?

Why such language? You don't use threat to get votes but cajoling.Haba!

Don't spoil market for AMBODE!

dickrider:
They must be high on madness. After voting in mass for the PDP who only deceived them with a second Niger bridge on paper. They should relocate to otuoke let GEJ fulfil his promise to them there. They are so hateful that they voted out their son Ngige for supporting APC.

They shall forever remain irrelevant in Nigerian politics. Bunch of tribalists

Not good to generalize all Igbos as tribalist just because of the fall out of 2015 election.

Life is either you win or you loss. In 2003 election, OBJ was not voted by SW and heaven did not fall.

No need to call name pls!

soloafe:
I wish same can be said of you madam chiboks. even ur igbo nation are disappointed in you, for the embarrassment u have brought to them.

How do you mean?

That's one of the excesses of PDP government.

Impunity of highest order.

Igbos should learn how not to put all their eggs in one basket.

One of our biggest problem is not letting go of the past and not understanding the dynamics of Nigeria politics.

There is no way an Igbo man can be a president without the help of other regions. Never!

The other side of it is that had it been that Okorocha and Peter Obi had not defected from APGA, may be APGA would have been regionally strong enough to be a basis for political negotiation. That's how Tinubu worked ACN, transforming it from regional party to national.

Unfortunately, APGA is almost dead unless something drastic happens. If Obiano also defects, then APGA is finshed.

Okorocha and Peter Obi - both had opportunity to build APGA to be regionally strong but failed.

Igbos shine your eyes. Don't cry marginalization as we have lost our political position to other ethnic group. What did we actually gain from PDP all these while?

So which god are they quoting?

Pastor Tunde Bakare also said recently that at his word there is not going to be election in Nigeria. Hmn!

This Buhari election have exposed so many things...and much more to come.

But she has a ring of marriage on her left hand. Is that correct?
If yes, what an irony of life.

His lost of the presidency brought out his real personality.

A man that does not feast on troubles but surrounded by wolves.

He spoke my mind.

Finally, reality is setting-in and Igbos eyes are now gradually being cleared!

When you walk alone, you die alone. No one should be an island to the other.

We need each other and should embrace peace. The only hope for presidency from Igbo extraction is on the platform of all Nigerians.

Meanwhile charity must first begin at home. Build a platform and ask for support from others.

Let's not live in the past. Let's make sure that gory history of the past does not repeat itself.

Let's be mature for once. Mistake should not be repeated again!
