doctokwus: On dis issue GEJ was even kind wt his choice of words.D action of mr sawyer were indeed those of a 'crazy,deranged,medical terrorist'.
There cannot b any decorum in describing what dat man has brought to nigeria,a nation of about 160million people is now living in fear bc one crazy man defiled qurantine,common sense and morality.How else shd he b decribed if not crazy?

omenka: You mind telling us the parastatal for the purpose of verification? One of us just might be your coleague. #waitingpatiently

omenka: Keep bashing ur head against the wall buddy. Stop when you see a blinding white light and you see yourself levitating. Thanx.

Bukingg2: tell me one reason that indicated they don't accept us, or is it because of one man selfish desire that made you think that he represents all? no. if you dnt know the ikweres are igbos and they are hearth of rivers, meanwhile I don't chase Edo away in this but if they continue to be a sabotage we can do much without them coz we dnt have much to gain from them

Sloan: @OP, but WHY are ibos always trying to TAG along with the SS? Why the attache by force? What is SS? Is SS = Ijaw?? NO! Are you ibo or ijaw??

ronalmagic10: Why specifically GEJ? Is it because of his performance or just because he's a southerner

Pain: I heard he only good thing in Otukpo are the Girls

Idoma Likita: Senator Afameva, I recognize how powerful you are on NL *Prostrating Flat Yoruba-Style*! Could you please use your Good Office to influence the Movement of this Thread to Frontpage?

Abi Idoma Politicians don give you money to Marginalize us further?

dayokanu: Orlu is in Imo State under APC

Auchi is in Edo state under APC

Idoma Likita: I Have Landed

Lemme Start by thanking the OP for doing a Job most Idomas should be doing-Highlighting the Squalor of our homeland for the World to see!
I have said it before and will keep saying it! Idoma Elite are the most Unserious in Nigeria!
Someone said he doesn't blame our politicians because they do not occupy executive posts hence cannot influence policies! Hellooooooo!
May I inform u that Benue is a Trilingual State! And Otukpo is the Capital of the other 2 Tribes! (Makurdi belongs to the Tivs!)Hence every Idoma man owes it as a point of Duty to own a Property in Otukpo(which surprisingly they've done to a reasonable extent)!
David Mark receives Millions of Naira as a Senator to develop his constituency, yet he hasn't seen the Modernization of Otukpo as a Project to embark upon! If he were committed to tarring all the roads in Otukpo, he wudda done 99% by now (he's been senator of Zone C for more than 14yrs continuously)!
The annoying part is that Idoma men from hinterlands have done their part by investing heavily in Otukpo, building modern houses in the view of owning houses in their capital city, yet the politicians do not complement dia efforts!

The Dust in Otukpo would give the Gobi desert a run for its name!
The Only Polytechnic in Idomaland has no Single Strip of Asphalt in it (the 1st time I'm seeing an untarred higher institution)
There is no single school of nursing and midwifery in the Whole of Idomaland(so work out the maternal mortality rate)
As a Principal Officer in the Senate and d No.3 man in Govt. You could attract FG Govt attention to this Old Railway town so they can help!
None of the idoma politicians have any tangible investment that employs otukpo people (the golf course is 13km from otukpo and run by foreigners)

Anybody who rallies Idoma people to conscientize them ends up being threatened! The names of all the people that attend such rallies are copied and sent to the senator!


Infact! The Idoma Race is besieged! HELP!!!

zeelo2014: They are 3 major tribes in Benue; Tiv,Idoma,Igede. Otukpo indigenes are majorly Idomas then few other tribes mostly Igedes.The Igedes are mostly from Oju local government. For those saying that those prominent men can't do much,that's a big lie. Nobody expects a sleepy town like Otukpo to have beautiful mansions dotted all over,we are saying these so-called big boys can influence the siting of basic social amenities such as pipe-borne water,major routes should be in good condition,good health care etc. It will interest u to know that the road from Makurdi to Otukpo is in bad condition even David Mark flies into his compound with chopper most times. The road from Enugu-otukpo Express especially the ugbokolo,otukpa... Parts are in despicable state. Water is a major problem in otukpo,can u believe that in 2013 many still depend heavily on rain water?

atlwireles: Is drinking garri different from garri for eba. You people will not kill me here.

Afam4eva: As much as i believe that those prominent men from that area are bonafide thieves. I don't see what they could have done really. It's not like they occupy(ied) an executive position that would aid them to salvage the situation of Otukpo. let's not forget that otukpo is not the capital of Benue state and in Nigeria, our governors have a culture of always developing the major city and leaving other cities to rut away. I don't see how Otukpo is worse than other mini-cities throughout Nigeria.

Afam4eva: If anything, it should be the other way around. Yorubas are from Abeokuta? WTF?

vizboy: ha ha ha falls from Garri tree

dayokanu: 14 straight uninterrupted years of PDP rule in benue State.

Fresh air things

adconline: Is this different from typical Naija village?

Professor Peter: Akume now a progressive politician spent 8yrs doing nothing, Suswan is there doing nothing. David Mark is also doing nothing. My guy nothing + nothing + nothing = nothing
