Politics › Re: Why Was There Little Call For Biafra When Jonathan Was In Power? by eagleu: 11:39pm On Sep 03, 2017 |
OkunrinMeta: One would imagine that in five years that Jonathan was in Power, if these protests and loud requests for secession was brought forward and it was this loud, It might have been easier for the Igbo nation to get what they seem to want.
Of course there is also the question of whether the agitators actually speak the mind of the Igbo Nation. This is because in my corner of the country, the Igbo men I know do not seem to be very much in support of Master Nnamdi. Still, these issues should be addressed by way of logical two way discussion.
So my questions are:
why is the demand for Biafra more pronounced now?
Did the agitators forget what they wanted before? Did they not want it at the time?
What exactly is the reasonable expectation currently?
Do you want the Hausa man to go and face his onions and cow while leaving the oil for only the east to enjoy because they are very selfless like Jesus?
Would it not have been easier to ask Jonathan to do that?
Are we willing to go back to 1967 to make it happen? For your honesty in accepting that there was call for Biafra during GEJ, I will join this discussion. There has been call for Biafra for a long time now, but something changed, and caused Igbos and even non-Igbos to start listening, agreeing, and now worshiping the the idea of Biafra. What changed? BUHAR! 1. He declared war on the "5%" who he perceived as political enemies. He sang the hate song even before someone played it on the radio. 2. The recent NNPC hiring of 15 northerners, 3 SW, 2 SS, and no SE is a good example of why Nnamdi Kalu is winning souls. Igbos on the average are more educated than Hausas, and Buhari saw no Igbo person fit to work as a manager in NNPC--his pot of gold! 3. Employment of civil servants to exclude Igbos, ditto # 2 above. 4. Education. Instead of moving the country forward and selecting the talented and the gifted, Buhari's nepotism made a bad situation worse. A child in Imo state has to score 220 vs 12 by his Zamfara counterpart to be considered for a spot in Federal government schools. 5. Oh look at the security apparatus of Nigeria, and you will answer your own question about why there was little call for Biafra during GEJ, OBJ, and even Yardua era. 5. Fulani herdsmen have always been an eyesore on Nigeria roads, but it's only during Buhari, that they have become emboldened, organized, and more murderous. Yet not one has ever been arrested, tried, and jailed for raping, killing, and burning down whole communities. Instead, the corrupt Hausa/Fulani military officers would rather talk about cattle rustlers. 6. Religion? Don't even let me remind you of the forceful and steady islamization plans and policies of this Buhari regimen. 7. Buhari has been known to be very corrupt, but smartly enough, he came to power pretending to fight corruption. The difference between his fight and reality is like day and night. Today, if you're his political or religious enemy, you're corrupt and the EFCC and DSS will hunt you down, try your case in the media, and never win a conviction in a court of law. Meanwhile, your life will be ruined without any compensation. Former govs Timipere and Chime of Bayelsa and Enugu were declared free after they joined APC, what a shame. 8. Biafran agitators have always been regarded as funny, even by most Igbos, but Buhari's order to shoot unarmed young people just for wearing Biafran colors certainly turned the tide in their favor. The list goes on, and on, and at every point, the finger points directly to the sick dictator in Aso Rock. Thank you. |

Now those who said Nigeria has marginalized them can they really say so after seeing this . What if the entire North complain about this. U point one finger at someone the rest four fingers are pointing at u So stop playing victims Every part of Nigeria is benefiting either by permanent employment or by appointment (which is temporal) You're trying to confuse people with fake statistics. 1. Tell us what percentage of qualified applicants from Imo state or the SE vs those actually in service. If 100,000 apply from Imo, and you hire 6000, that will be 6% hire rate. Now if 1000 apply from Sokoto, and you hire 700, that's 70% hire rate. Remember the NNPC figures that showed managers from every region? That was fake too. That's why it's criminal for corrupt Hausa officials to insensibly publish this sort of figures. 2. Also tell us what year these figures are coming from ( I bait it's probably from Shehu Shagari era) 3. Tell us representation of states in every level, because that's another way of keeping people from the south permanently as junior workers while less educated northerners fill the management cadre. You can't flash stats when you are an illiterate. |

Politics › Re: A Review Of "Freedom" Enjoyed Under Goodluck Jonathan. by eagleu: 5:06pm On Aug 26, 2017 |
omenkaLives: Good evening all.
It is no longer news that ex President Goodluck Jonathan indirectly took a swipe at the current administration in response to her plans to clamp down on inflammatory and hate speeches that seem to have become the norm on our social media space. His comments suggested that during his regime Nigerians enjoyed freedoms only comparable to those obtainable in the most advanced countries, especially in the West.
Especially, his fans and supporters had a field day doing what they do best, trying to turn history in its head, just like Jonathan himself, in total disregard for truth and recorded history!
Their conduct was appalling and shocking to say the least.
For some of us, there can be nothing more scandalous than this for we know and will not, in the blink of an eye, forget how oppressive and repressive that regime was. The only credit those of us old and shrewd enough to recollect the past can give to Jonathan as regards respect for democratic freedoms and principles is his concession of defeat in a contest in which he was beaten roundly and squarely.
Let no one be deceived, his acceptance of defeat was as much a favour to Nigeria as it was to himself. He sure knew what might have been had he done otherwise.
Now, let us take a trip down memory lane and peel some skin off "FREEROM ICON" Jonathan, and see just how deserving of the title and accolades he truly is: Comparing the democratic credentials of GEJ with Buhari is like comparing night and day. While GEJ might have been naive, inexperienced, and sometimes down right silly in his approach, Buhari was, is, and always will be a perfect definition of a dictator! Unlike people who work for BMC, I have always said that despite GEJ's short comings, the fact that he basically tolerated people to call him names, abuse him, and even undermined his own government was actually good for our democracy. You have been one of those who had called GEJ many unprintable names here on N/L. However, your tone changed once Buhari moved into Aso Rock, you suddenly started asking for respect for the office. All of a sudden, we don't hear about the Otuoke drunk, dullard, etc; now you want everyone to hail Buhari as the savior he is not. For Buhari, any real or imagined disrespect, opposition, or challenge has to be dealt with formally or informally. Remember what happened to the poor man who committed a crime by naming his dog Buahri? That's just one example of intolerant atmosphere occasioned by Buhari's body language. Prior to wining GEJ, Buhari ran an outlaw radio station called Chanji, where he preached hatred, religious, and ethnic division for many years. Guess what he did when he came into office? He began to arrest outlaw radio operators who used to challenge government like him. Yes, there were some infractions during GEJ administration, some by opposition, some by law enforcement, and some by area boys. GEJ had always vigorous denied these associations to violence. Today, Buhari doesn't even bother acknowledge, address, or deny violence against the opposition, because they are doing his bidding. There is just no way to compare GEJ tenure as president with Buhari's despotic approach to democracy.[/quote] Come with me:
1. Governors Forum Crises (2013): A lot of political pundits insist this marked the beginning of Jonathan downfall, forget his crass incompetence.
In a simple election involving 35 participants and two contestants, Jonathan's interference saw to it that this more or less political pressure group was fractured beyond redemption resulting in the formation of the PDP Governors Forum chaired by his stooge Godswill Akpabio and another faction of the forum chaired by his preferred candidate who lost in the contest, Jonah Jang.
The election whose video went rival at that time due to its outcome saw Amaechi pulling 19 votes while Jonah Jang pulled 16. Democrat Jonathan insisted Jang won the election and recognised him as the Chairman of the forum giving rise to the much publicised PDP arithmetics where 16 is greater than 19.
This set the precedence for the scenarios that played out in Rivers and Ekiti Houses of Assembly while our "Hero" stood idly by, giving a tacit nod to the obvious anomalies as state police were used to suppress the opposition.
www.punchng.com/news/jonathan-endorses-gov-jangs-faction/ What's the state of the governors' forum today? A fifth column extra-constitutional body created by ambitious governor to challenge the president and the legislature. Any surprise that today we have mostly APC and PDP governors' forum. Here's one area GEJ fell behind the A-ball, he should have nipped that in the bud a long time ago, before Amaechi used it to form opposition against him. GEJ remained timid, and allowed the association to progress at his own detriment. Imagine what a Buhari would have done to a group of recalcitrant governors plotting against him? He would have either killed them all, or have his attack dogs to after them and members of their families. Yet GEJ just sat there and watched.[/quote] 2. APC National Leader Harassed by the Military: During the heat of the campaigns, keeping faith with their doctrine of hounding and intimidating opposition figures, Bola Tinubu had his house placed under surveillance by the military when he wasn't indicted for any federal offence. The national leader responded to this in a manner that set social media on fire, placing a banner in front of his house that seemingly pointed the military where they should be looking- Sambisa.
leadership.ng/news/411334/military-places-tinubu-surveillance. Tinubu's problem with stealing public fund started well before OBJ's time, GEJ allowed it to go to trial. When Tinubu won, guess what? The case was discharged. Today, you can count how many opposition politicians have won cases against the government like Tinubu did, and they are still being held by a corrupt dictator called Buhari. You remember Dasuki?[/quote] 3. Journalists Harassed and Newspapers Confiscated: This was one of the greatest assaults on freedom of speech we witnessed under Jonathan. It was a crackdown reminiscent of the dark days of the Khaki Boys.
Hundreds of papers with publications critical of the government's handling of national issues were confiscated and destroyed. Same guys who supported the actions of the government then screamed blue murder when reports circulated the press that Buhari had barred AIT from covering his activities.

www.punchng.com/news/military-sss-seize-destroy-major-nigerian-newspapers/ In the good old days, when a newspaper published unfavorable article about wealth people, they simply buy up all copies of the paper. Today, that's a waste of time. Buhari's DSS will simply arrest, jail, and even kill the journalist. Remember Dr. Danjuma in Kaduna who crossed El Rufai's and APC line with his honest assessment of south Kaduna Fulani herdsmen massacre? Speaking of Fulani herdsmen, where were they when GEJ's honest government was in office? Today, farmers all over the country are threatened by Buhari and his Fulani brothers, and nobody is saying a word about it. Imaging where this was happening under GEJ, smart media practioneers like Lai Mohammed would fashion out a way to benefit from it politically.[/quote] 4. APC Office Raided: This was another very dark day in our democratic experience and marked an upsurge in the use of state security agents to harass and gag the opposition. Under the guise of carrying out an investigation, offices of the opposition were raided with computers and other instruments confiscated and destroyed. It was one of the lowest points of the DSS and somewhat signalled its complete evolution into an arm of the PDP.
The DSS at a press conference displayed items "discovered" at the office during the raid and they were computers, hard drives and other electronic accessories- hell it was a data centre!! Were they expecting to find chopsticks and stoves

Remember Metuh, Fayose, George, and other PDP members hunted by Buhari extra judicially?[/quote] 5. Buhari's Plane Barred from Landing: Another shameful incident where a plane conveying opposition bigwigs (then), including her flag bearer, on a campaign trail was refused landing rights in Makurdi and they had to return to Abuja. My question is, what if there wasn't sufficient fuel to take them back to Abuja as they made the u-turn mid-air?? Your guess is as good as mine.

saharareporters.com/2014/11/26/buharis-jet-barred-landing-makurdi Buhari's or Amachi's plane not landing on time was a function of the local airport condition at that time. many times these greedy politicians want first consideration in everything. Today, they do exactly the same thing to other people. Amaechi is transportation minister, how many times have the airports cancelled landings for other Nigerians? the answer is many times.[/quote] 6. Protesters and Senator Shot in Rivers: Another gut wrenching incident that demonstrated the partisan nature of our security apparatus under ex president Jonathan. In a continuation of the government's crackdown on the opposition, citizens who were on a peaceful protest in Rivers state were shot at with live and rubber bullets and a Senator was hit twice in the chest. Thankfully, he survived and a serious crises was averted.
www.vanguardngr.com/2014/01/rivers-crisis-senator-abe-shot-flown-london/ You're describing a clash between opposing political groups, because GEJ's wife was involved, doesn't make it a GEJ responsibility. Anyway, for Buhari, he will simply draft armed solders to come shoot t he opposition, and then cover up later. The senator "shot in the chest twice" is alive and healthy after the gun shot wounds that didn't produce 1 drop of blood gave him an acting opportunity in front of the cameras. We actually remember the truth! On the contrary, go ask shiek Zaky and his followers who were brutally murdered by Buhari's army in Kaduna for belonging to a different islamic sect.[/quote] 7. APC Women Protesters Teargassed: This was another horrid incident that demonstrated the ex president's disdain for opposition and civil liberties.
www.vanguardngr.com/2015/03/police-fire-tear-gas-at-apc-women-protesters-in-rivers/ Dispersing organised and unlawfully gathered protesters with tear gas is better than sending them to heaven directly with live armo.[/quote] 8. Jonathan Orders Withdrawal of Speaker's Security Detail: Arguably the most vicious assault on our democracy by the ex president. This much publicised incident that needs no introduction earned the ex president (and deservedly so) local and international disrepute and condemnation. People had started to see him as the worst civilian dictator in the country's history. If you ask me, this incident drove the last nail into the coffin of Jonathan's 2015 ambition.

Soldiers shoot to disperse protesters in Ojota, Lagos as secret police raids CNN's office: Here's another account of Jonathan's "tollerance" for freedom and human rights. We can all remember that administration's response to Occupy Nigeria protests except of course we want to be deliberately forgetful.
http://saharareporters.com/2012/01/16/soldiers-shoot-disperse-occupy-protesters-lagos-nigerian-secret-police-raids-cnns-office
These are but a few events the Mr Freedom subjected Nigerians to. Indeed it would be a herculean task convincing people of sound minds as to the propriety of referring to Mr Jonathan as a protector and promoter of freedoms in this country.
Thanks for reading. Occupy was an early trial balloon by Tinubu and associates to test the waters, they obstructed non participants, and once again GEJ failed to nip thing in the bud, he allowed it to fester. For Buhari, an opposition figure like Tinubu for GEJ would have since been in jail, charged, prosecute, and jailed in the press by Buhari's EFCC and DSS, and of course without any formal court sentencing! |
Politics › Re: Nigerian Civil War: The Igbos Drew First Blood. by eagleu: 7:30pm On May 29, 2017 |
baminasri: Fifty years ago on January 15, 1966, the first military coup d’ etat was carried out in Nigeria by junior soldiers, toppling the government of Nnamdi Azikiwe and Tafawa Balewa thereby rewriting the political, social and military history of the country – forever. On the morning of the coup, Kaduna Nzeogwu, the leader of the coup plotters led soldiers in Kaduna to take over the house of Ahmadu Bello, the leader of the northern region. He was summarily killed after the house was ransacked. Brig Samuel Ademulegun, the commander of 2nd brigade and his wife were reportedly shot by Nzeogwu's co-conspirator, Maj Timothy Onwuatuegwu. In Lagos, Sir Tafawa Balewa who was the prime minister was taken out of his mansion at gun point. His body was reportedly discovered six days later. The attack was led by Emmanuel Ifeajuna. The attack in Ibadan was led by Capt. Emmanuel Nwobos and although there was a scuffle, Samuel Akintola was eventually killed. Major General Aguiyi Ironsi took over government as the first military head of state but the nature of the coup made it look like powerful northerners were killed while their Igbo counterparts were spared. Also, most of the key coup plotters were Igbos and although an Igbo, Arthur Unegbe was killed, it was soon tagged an Igbo coup. It was to change the history of the country forever. The coup, though not completely successful laid the foundation for coups and counter coups in Nigeria. Just six months after the first coup, a counter coup was carried out leading to the death of Ironsi. The coup, popularly referred to as the return match, was planned and carried out by northern officers. It was evident that the attack was retaliation for the first coup. Although the officers that carried out the January coup were still in detention, the fact that they had not been tried for treason and were still on the payroll of the government sent a signal to the northerners that the Igbos wanted to dominate. Aguiyi Ironsi The counter coup would not be the last as officers grew more experienced in coup planning. Bloodier coups followed as senior military men masterminded and carried out more potent coups. Abortive and unsuccessful coup planners were unceremoniously hanged but the tradition of toppling government through a coup continued until 2007 when the former president Olusegun Obasanjo successfully handed over power to Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. Still it was reported that Obasanjo took stringent measures to prevent the toppling of his government by retiring senior military personnel. Although the Biafra civil war began in July, 1967, the genesis could be traced to the first coup of January 1966. The supposed Igbo coup strained relationship between the Hausas in the north and Igbos in the east. Following the counter coup in July, 1966, Igbos reportedly became victims of violent attacks in the north while little was done by the then head of state, Yakubu Gowon. Tension grew and an attempt to salvage the situation failed after the Aburi Accord in Ghana in January, 1967. A few months later, Colonel Odumegwu Ojukwu, the military governor of the eastern region declared the region an independent Biafra state. What followed was a bloody war that lasted for three years. Although Nigeria returned to being a single country, the event led to the formation of different separatist groups calling for the declaration of an independent state of Biafra. The detention of Nnamdi Kanu, the director of Radio Biafra on charges of treason is due to his agitation for an independent Biafra state; an agitation that is remotely connected to the first coup in 1966. Nigeria was divided into four regions: Northern region, Western region, Mid-Western region and Eastern region. While the formation of states was something that would eventually happen, the speedy creation of 12 states three days before the start of the civil war was a way to weaken the strength of the Eastern region. The eastern region was broken up into Central Eastern, South Eastern, and Rivers state. It changed the country's setup from regionalism to statehood. The creation of states created a crack in what used to be perceived as a unified eastern region. This was a tactic used by the federal government to establish scattered region that could be handled individually. This was a reaction to the brewing civil war which is also connected to the coup of 1966. Although the number would eventually rise to 36, the creation of 12 states was very significant at that time. The military’s involvement and participation in Nigeria’s politics and governance can be traced to the first coup of 1966 when the civilian government was toppled and replaced with a military rule. Since then military rule continued till 1979 when a civilian government took over. Four years later, another military coup ousted the civilian government until 1999 when an election was carried out and Obasanjo, a former military officer was sworn in as president. Since the military tasted power in 1966, the desire for government increased. Officers who served as military governors or held leadership positions have shed their uniforms to occupy or contest in elective positions in the country. Among them are the aforementioned Obasanjo and the current president, Muhammadu Buhari. Ojukwu and Ibrahim Babangida showed interest in also becoming the president. Other former military men who occupied or contested in elective positions are David Mark, Jonah Jang, Tunde Olurin, Olagunsoye Oyinlola, Murtala Nyako and Tunde Ogbeha. Northern Dominance In Nigerian Military Ibrahim Babangide and Sani Abacha. Both were chiefs of army staff and later became heads of state The military coup of 1966 ushered in an Igbo head of state, Aguiyi Ironsi. It was evident therefore that Ironsi got the position because he was the chief of army staff, the most senior commissioned officer. Whether by design or nature, the position was not occupied by an Igbo officer for more than 40 years. This automatically reduced the chances of an Igbo officer occupying the position of Head of State as three heads of states were former chief of army staff. Azubuike Ihejirika The position rather was mostly occupied by northern military officers which gave the region the chance to produce most of the military heads of state in the country. It took 44 years after Ironsi for an Igbo to return to the position of chief of army staff with the appointment of Azubuike Ihejirika by the then president Goodluck Jonathan.

Why didn't you say, "An Igbo drew first blood" Instead of Igbos, as a way to justify mass killing of every Igbo person. Next time Fulani hersdsmen invade and pillage a community, maybe we should chase all Fulanis down the way Igbos were chased down. |

360metrosports: The Joint Admissions Matriculation Board (JAMB) says more than 10,000 candidates caught for examination malpractices in the on-going UTME in Anambra have been handed over to the appropriate authority.
Mrs Lynda Nwachukwu, the Coordinator of the board in Anambra disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Awka on Saturday.
NAN reports that the all computer-based testing (CBT) mode 2017 UTME, which started on May 13 in 642 centres nationwide, ended on May 20.
Nwachukwu said that the examination, which took place in 28 centres in the state, was successful.
“There was no disruption of the exercise in any of the examination centres,’’ she said.
The coordinator said that the candidates adhered strictly to the requirements of the examination, adding that JAMB provided all the materials required for the examination.
NAN correspondent, who monitored the last batch of the examination, reports that some parents complained of system failure in some CBT centres in the state.
Mrs Eucharia Okonkwo, a parent, said her daughter, who wrote the examination at the St Mary’s High School Ifite-Dunu centre, could not complete the examination due to the faulty computer and network failure at the centre.
According to her daughter, many candidates could not complete the questions in record time because of the faulty system.
Okonkwo advised JAMB to plan well for examination in subsequent years to avoid the technical hitches that could give the candidates psychological trauma.
Dr. Mose Mojekeh, Head, Department of Marketing at the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, told NAN on a telephone, that such system failure in UTME was not acceptable.
According to him, the hiccups could potentially deny young people from Anambra State, university admission.
Mojekeh advised JAMB to urgently collate the number of candidates affected and set another examination for them.
He also decried the practice whereby JAMB sends officials from one state to supervise examinations in another state.
“Experience has shown that such officials do not care much about the candidates when problems arise, as they leave them to their fate,’’ the lecturer said.
He called on the management of schools, whose candidates experienced the computer failure, to take their complaints to the State Ministry of Education to present their cases.
NAN reports that the JAMB concluded its CBT on May 20. (NAN)

For anyone who's interested in how to become a pharmacist in the US, a simple google search which Mr. Misinformer above appears incapable of doing will produce a link like this http://www.wikihow.com/Become-a-Pharmacist@Topic, I wholeheartedly support the conversion, but of course the necessary infrastructure, facilities and curriculum must be in place so that a Pharm.D. degree from Nigeria will be readily considered equal to a Pharm.D. degree obtained anywhere else outside the country.[/quote]You know you lie. Have you even been to the USA? Many schools offer Pharm B and Pharm D, and even some only Pharma B |

Mr. Archbishop, what do you say about loosing 50 of the 52 churches in Borno to BH. If you're not confused, foo.l.sh, and corrupt you should be fighting to stop those who want to eliminate you completely,not someone who might have insulted your friends. |

Politics › Re: A Northerner Must Emerge In 2015 Or Nigeria Will Divide - Lawal Kaita by eagleu: 4:41am On Mar 26, 2013 |
PointB: Beyond Kaita frustrated outburst, one need to pay serious attention to the unnatural demand by the core North for power. I mean there are other ethnic groups and geopolitical zones in the country (depending on how you look at it). Why this desperation for power by core north? Why can't the core north wait for 4, 8, or 12 years as the case may be if for power if they indeed love Nigeria?
Igbos have endured being out of power for decades now; actually thrived without it. There are other ethnic groups like the Efik, Ibibio, Annangs, Idoma with sizeable population. Why not them?
I think it's all fair if power should rotate across geopolitical zones, as every zone can provide a credible individual for presidency - not necessary some political heavy weight.
In any case, kaita have given many neutrals reasons why power should remain in the south, or at the minimal away from core north. If Nigeria will divide as a result of this, it simply confirms the idea that Nigeria was not meant to be. We can certainly survive, even thrive, without Nigeria.
By the way, I think the SSS should invite Kaita for a chat. Word! |

Emperoh: Chair,
I am good ooh. . . .nice to see you here life.
Two of my guys have seen the unit. . . .but price tag (5.5m) and Engine size are a huge turn off Give the fuel issue and the somewhat conservative lifestyle of folks over there, there is a bit of a let off on it But i will keep hitting at it. Hopefully when i get to Enugu, i will see things for myself and see what i can come up with. The way I look at it is while I can take a little loss here and there, the engine size actually comes in handy for the busy person. Imagine a half ton space at the back? That's almost 50 bags of cements conveniently at the back while ridding at the top luxury. Well, let me know how you can help me. Thanks. |

Emperoh: Lightest,
Did u meet the person on nairaland? if yes, we would like to know who the person is for others to take note.
But i won't totally absolve you of the blame. Correct me if i am wrong, you may have turned to this because the price tag you saw on it was cheap enough Emperoh, how you dey? I'm still trying to track my other classmate in Enugu. I'll see the other one in Onithsa when I return. Did your man ever see the Titan? |

phxc: That's what witches are supposed to do according to him. You should listen to him talk about witches, he's like an expert on the subject. Witch, witch, witch is just an African red meat used by western preachers to catch the people's attention. I read that German, American, and British preachers usually take a quick course on the topic of witches when preparing to preach in sub-saharan Africa. Apparently, witches and wizards exist only in Africa in 2011  |
