Christlike01: Keep fooling yourself,crazy islamist! The satanic regime in Iran and the fanatical supreme terrorists leader,Ayatollah Khamenei ,are both going down!
Save your vitriol and gragra for the fulanis laying your tian middle belt waste.........you Nigerian xtians get on my last nerves!
The symbolic march came a day after President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s visit to the State, which saw heavy mobilisation and a public holiday declared by the State Government.
Do these people actually read the Bible? Your enemies are laying you and your families waste ..and you are busy marching around praying for deliverance from your assailants......what Europe inspired xtianity has done to the psychedelic of Black African xtians needs to be studied!
SeeThisLoser: Not sure what is happening or what is coming, but Trump just issued a warning to everyone in Tehran, to leave the capital immediately. Is the USA about to join Israel in this war !!!
The US is the main instigator of this war...just as they did instigate the Ukraine war with Russia!
Sportsmatter: I've seen certain people throw insults at Prof Soyinka and calling him a tribalist simply because he supported Bola Tinubu who happens to be from the same tribe with him.
Yes, you can call him out for maybe supporting the present government (because of the hardship citizens are currently facing) but tarnishing his image by calling him a tribalist is callous.
Have you suddenly forgotten his role during the Biafran (civil) war? He was even jailed for this oo. I don't think he supported the OBJ regime (another Yoruba president).
Yes, he may be supporting Tinubu because of their long standing relationship. All of you hypocrites will also support your long time friend and brother for any position even if you know he is a fraud.
Call him out for that and stop calling him a tribalist or even saying he's doing this because of money.
That's even a very ridiculous thing to say. Someone didn't support any government for money when he was much younger and needed money for flexing and stuff, it's now that he's already old and has no real use for material things that he will do that for money?
Common, y'all should do better with the name calling.
Wole soyinka is nearly 90 years old.........our youth should allow him to rest abeg! People should learn to fight for what they believe in ...while they have the strength and youth.........kanu has been in detention for nearly 6 years in the last decade.......if Tinubu's regime pain you.....get into the ring and fight!
slimfit1: If you can't deal with these terrorist with those craft you clearly are part of the problem scoring own goal deliberately and also sabotaging our soldiers. We want have a airforce and out soldiers are always under attack, it doesn't make sense. When the terrorist have a clear position and we are struggling to deal with the situation.
The Nigerian army has to change its military doctrine asap! The Boko haram is fighting an asymmetrical war.........the army should acquire fpv suicide drones plus surveillance drones.......train our rappers to rig high explosives to the suicide drones........that's the only way to destabilize these savages
OreMI22: This is so beautiful! I am surprised that the usual gang of 'why open drainages' has not invaded here to wail ignorantly about the open drainage systems we currently have in Nigeria.
I currently reside in the United States, but I spent many years living in Europe. Many of those criticizing Nigeria's open-ditch drainage system clearly have no understanding of why it exists or how it works.
Let’s be clear: Nigeria is not yet at the stage of development where underground drainage systems are feasible or sustainable.
The closed drainage systems in the U.S. and Europe that people often refer to are large underground pipes that connect to even larger underground drainage networks. These systems are part of complex infrastructure networks designed to handle water flow, maintenance, and desilting.
Nigeria simply does not have that level of infrastructure, just as we lack comprehensive underground sewage systems for our cities. So when we cover open gutters without building a proper underground system to connect and maintain them, the drainage still fails. There’s nowhere for the water to go, and no system in place to clean or maintain those blocked drains.
Take a look at the Onitsha–Owerri expressway, especially around Roadmaster Industries and Mgbemena Street. All the covered drains there are blocked, and there’s no way to desilt them. This leads to frequent road failures, as floodwaters from Awada now run directly on the road surface because the gutters are clogged and ineffective.
Please, our people should stop re-echoing opinions from those who merely speak without understanding the complexities of the situation. This is not just about covering gutters; it requires an entire support system of underground infrastructure that allows water to drain properly and pipes to be cleaned when blocked.
Tomorrow, we’ll likely hear people arguing against the use of soakaways in Nigerian homes simply because “they don’t have soakaways abroad.” But they fail to realize that homes in developed countries are connected to underground sewer systems, a completely different system from street gutters. Now, some are even advocating that we drain sewage directly into gutters in front of homes, all to blindly copy foreign systems without understanding the infrastructure that supports them.
If we want to adopt foreign practices, we must first invest in the proper infrastructure to support them. Until then, open drainage systems, while not ideal, are the only option that can function effectively within the current limitations of proper city infrastructure we desperately lack.
The koko is what works best for residents of our beloved state? If underground drainage works well for The United states and Rwanda ( even Cotonou) Why will it not work for us here in Anambra! So I respectfully disagree with you! This is the very reason I feel our educational system tend to be dysfunctional! Why do we have Universities all over the place...churning out engineers that cannot engineer solutions to the myriad of problems facing us as a people! Granted, that underground drainage is not needed everywhere and in all situations..........I feel its unprogressive to always pick the easiest path available when we have all it takes to design underground drainage that will save us road space , constant desilting and clearing and reduce mosquito infestation!
We are tired of our cities looking so ramshackle and shabby! Government appointees and civil servants should earn their pay and for once burn the midnight oil and come out with a town planning document that defines what exactly constitutes the design parameters of state roads, rural roads , town roads etc! As a matter of fact what exactly is the town planning Philosophy of Anambra state?
We all know what Abuja looks like? Uyo has a particular ambience......even Enugu of late is begining to find its feet! What exactly do we want for Anambra state! Soludo has done well but a lot of harmonization pf plans needs to be done!
IGBOPROMISE1: Didn’t the army chief make a show of relocating to Benue state last week?
I’m sure by now Christian middle-beltans old enough to remember the uncivil war will rue the day they chose to side with the hegemonic alliance to fight the Igbo/Biafrans! I doubt if given the opportunity to do things all over again, that they would make the same mistake!
Tribalism or ethnic nationalism is like strong alcohol.........it inebriates you and makes you lose all sense of good judgement! Cos of tribalism against Ndigbo, Nigerians have lost all sense of self -preservation, even the politicians doing all the looting have lost focus on the existential threat that the maurauding Fulanis pose..........and instead are laser- focused on Simon Ekpa's trial in Finland and Kanu's trial in Abuja!
Nigeria is not collapse-proof! Under the right conditions this nation may just collapse!
OneCandleAway: Do you want Abati to be lying miserably like onanuga and lai Muhammed? Yes Abati wasn't very goodat the job because even he himself knew some policies or govt decisions he had to defend doesn't make sense.
jonathan had a far better economic management than the disaster we have now! we all know those that used Boko haram to destabilize his governement! Thay all know themselves too........

IGBOPROMISE1: Just watched a clip of Uyo and its environs, and i was impressed with how well attention was paid to landscaping and maintaining of greenery, as well as how neat and litter-free the roads were. I feel these areas are where our cities in the south-east are lacking, and where improvements can be made. We may not have the funds to get Julius Berger to build all or most of our roads, but keeping the ones we have spotless, road marked and free of litter/sand (including the gutters), as well as landscape the road sides and trim wild and overgrowing grasses are things that cost little to do.
We just don't take care of our environment as well as we should, and this takes away from any efforts done in urban renewal like road construction. Watching the clip, you notice that when a road is built in Uyo, care is taken to level and landscape both sides of the road, including the median, and carpet grass and ornamental trees/shrubs are planted which are maintained on a regular basis. Even outside the main Uyo city, greenery on the road sides are trimmed and well maintained!
So we should try and improve the environmental ambience and eco-friendly credentials of our cities. Kudos to Uyo for having a neat city, It's not yet the finished product, but as it stands now, it's the neatest state capital in Nigeria!
I am simply tired of complaining about the lethargic way the Anambra commissioner of works supervises the finishing aspect of most road projects.............the roadsides are almost always abandoned....with heaps of mud and laterite left where the bulldozers left them! nobody cares about backfilling the sides of the road so that rainwater is able to flow into the gutters............next thing the rain runoff digs its own channels behind the gutter! We allow these mideastern-owned firms to get away with tardy finishings!
Here in the US it is the duty of property owners adjoining the side of the roads to cut and tend the lawns planted therein but the initial planting of the lawns is done by the government! If you allow elephant grass to grow there or even next to your property wall...you are given citations and pay penalties......if the citation is unpaid you are taken to court and more penalties added! I have had my car towed away right from the side of my house just because I parked in the wrong direction.........Anambra state government can earn billions by issuing such citations daily....cos our people are too headstrong! I agree with you 100% enuff of this tardiness....its becoming annoying!
I love the finishing of the Ekwulobia market and bus park! That is the way forward!
Godjone: Reno, Wike, umahi and the vultures tapping from the trillions of naira wasted on coastal highway robbery will have their days in the court of law with chains on their legs. They should continue enjoying their temporary moment of Passover only time shall tell
They have not jammed the 1000 plus 1 million creeks and streams in gummy swamp of Niger delta and they are already skipping terrain! Any mumu that believes that Nigeria can complete 700 km of concrete hiway thru the delta is a mumu man! Do they know the number of bridges and land filling that will entail!
Why not simply join the Lagos end to Sagamu/Benin highway..........and join the Calabar end to the East West road and save Nigeria the stress and money on this useless project!
zero8zero: Sit down there, let bitter people be lying to you that investors are not coming to Nigeria. We have investors in Lithium, steel, livestock, we now have the largest medical center in west African. An empty barrel makes the loudest noise, keep making noise on social media, hating on your country. Tinubu is not a noise maker, he is a doer. Baba is working all round, making things happen.
After God na Tinubu ( where's PressMyButton sef )
we also have fulani bandits and boko haram...raping and pillaging innocent Nigerians and tying up our soldiers like ileya rams being prepped for sallah day slaughter! kizz da truth!
gidgiddy: I noticed that in the thread that was put on front page, where former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, is purported to have said he only claimed to be Igbo for political reasons, something was left out
I noticed that the person who posted the video carefully edited out the last one minute of the interview so people would not see what Ameachi said in its entirety. This is where the last words of Amaechi on the Igbo/Ikwerre issue:
Whether I'm an Igbo man or not is immaterial at this point in time. Again, I also argue with my brothers in the Ikwerre community, our cultures are similar, our language is also similar, the kind of food we eat is the same. So why would you deny being an Igbo man?
Scroll to the last minute of the interview below to see this part of the interview that agents of division cut off.
Na ronu trolls edit am off.........they want a leg in Port Harcourt by any means.......however Port Harcourt will always retain its Igbo heritage ! Aba and Port Harcourt is not much farther than Lekki and Ojo alaba.........Rivers as a whole is dominated by Ndigbo......it has always been so and will continue to be so!
DomPerignon: For every action there is an equal but opposing reaction. This is natural universal law.
The once liberal Yoruba populace is now making a 180 diametric shift to Ethnic nationalism in the face of what is IBO Marxism.
IBO Marxism isn't new. You can all thank Zik for it.
But why do Marxists and all their hydraheaded isms like Socialism, liberalism , communism and Lennism all hate and oppose Nationalism ?
The answer is simple and its because Nationalism is the very antithesis of Marxism.
Marxism like communism are an aberahation of what they claim to be against.
As Marxists claim to want to usher in an ultra liberal society devoid of ethnic , racial and class distinctions but at its core, Marxism is a tool to disarm others of their ethnic and national identities towards having an external group seize total control of society. This is why Marxists are against race , ethnic , national and even religious identity.
All Marxists revolutions have always led to an ethnic group seizing power for themselves.
To compare with communism which claims to be against capitalism , communism owes its inception and spread from western capitalists. To every capitalists out there, China is the ideal slave society were labour can be milked for next to nothing and wide profits made. Communism is extreme capitalism . unlike western capitalism that has the 1℅ billionaire class and a thriving middle class , communist societies have a 0.001℅ Trillioniare class with every one else scraping the barrel in abject poverty. In Soviet Russia, wealth and property ownership was criminalised but that didn't stop the Jewish overlords from raping that country dry. Like the slave era of early America , those who cashed out of Russia's enslavement are still the oligarchs of that somewhat liberated nation.
These are the contradictions of what Marxism represents and its a decietful mechanism to disarm ethnic identity while pushing ones own ethnic agenda.
So its only natural that the Yorubas who are not foolish to wake up from their inebriated liberal stupor state.
patrickcollins: She never cheated, only that Jamb's scamming tactics was exposed. What stopped jamb from revealing her questions papers and the marking. They tried to bully some of the candidates this year only that they scammed lots of them from Lagos and five south east states
they wanted to do their Irev magic but God no gree dem!
Mobilize 2 battalions..........with enuff Amor personnel carriers and fighting vehicles and give them 3 months to ossupy all the villages over run by herdsmen over the years...........Benue and Tivi gragra is always reserved for Ndigbo but to mobilize and get back their villages is an uphill task!
lagosian1960: Terror in Mushin (Part II): Another Night, Another Attack — Ogungbaiye and Martins Streets Fall Victim
Mushin, Lagos — June 2, 2025
Just one night after the brutal murder of a teenager at No. 9 Omoniyi Street, the nightmare in Mushin continues. The most recent attack occurred last night on Ogungbaiye Street and Martins Street, further deepening the community’s sense of fear, abandonment, and outrage.
According to residents, four houses were invaded in the middle of the night by the same violent gang that has been terrorising the area for more than a year. Families were forcefully awakened and robbed at gunpoint. Some victims who attempted to resist were hacked with machetes and sustained serious injuries.
What makes this latest incident even more devastating is the widespread destruction left behind. Over twenty vehicles parked along Ogungbaiye and Martins Streets were vandalised — windows smashed, tyres destroyed, and in some cases, vehicles stripped of their parts. The sheer scale of the attack has left the street looking like a war zone, with broken glass and shattered lives littering the morning aftermath.
Once again, there was no response from the authorities. No patrols arrived. No investigation followed. Residents are no longer just afraid; they are losing faith entirely in the institutions meant to protect them. This is no longer about theft. It is sustained violence, meant to terrorise. It is coordinated and repeated, and it is happening night after night.
The residents of Mushin are exhausted. They have shouted. They have written. They have begged. Yet they continue to be ignored. Every call to the police rings unanswered. Every email to the state security address vanishes without reply. People are dying. Children are being murdered. Homes are being violated. Lives are being destroyed.
When will the government attend to our cries? This is no longer mere criminality. This is terrorism — and it is unfolding in a state with a functioning government.
If this can happen in Mushin without consequence, it can happen anywhere. The silence of those in power has become complicity. We refuse to stay silent. We demand protection. We demand justice. We demand to live without fear in our own homes.
Mushin is under siege, and the world must pay attention.
— A Worried Mushin Resident
Have Mahmuda bandits infiltrated Mushin where is amotekun when you need them?
The slowpoke that fielded this report actually saw the waybill with ESN and IPOB written on the list....with their address and phone numbers clearly written down! Nigerians have to be the most dumb people this side of the universe! All they fantasize morning ,nooon and night is how to subjugate Ndigbo! Ngwanu produce the same outrage for fulanis that are carving a muderous path all across Nigeria ...for where? Instead they kowtow to them........shey the Emir Katsina guards almost finished Tinubu's body guards did you hear pimm from ndiyoruba.........let that happen in Igboland..........these tribal bigots will be up in arms aginst ndigbo!
Zionmdde: If they say "Lagos is smelling", this is the best way to respond to the critics and not playing tribalism card. And when monthly sanitation is imposed, arrest defaulters and let them be mandated to clean up Lagos. Simple
simple and short.......I careless if its Alaba or computer village just enforce the sanitation laws not making ethnic innuendos! Fashola never cleaned up lagos by giving excuses!
