If you're not from Abia state don't come here and tell us what we need. It is the man that wears the shoe that knows where it pinches!

PDP is a disease in Abia state and we the sane Abians don't want anything to do with them!

Alex we know!
Say no to bad governance!
Say no to Ochendu and his family members

Thandolwethu:



Our president has sent in the Army to stop the riots and attacks.

Unlike Jonathan who cant send in the army to stop boko haram

My problem with you is that you are xenophobic, and u're here giving us excuses as to why your people are behaving like barbarians and retards..going about killing others. Doesn't S.A have a police? If you feel someone is a thief, kingpin, drug lord etc can't your police fish them out and arrest them? What solid proof do you have to back up your claims that the criminals are foreigners.

To the issue of the attacks...So you mean we should wait till a Nigerian is killed before raising an alarm? The man whose auto center was burnt is a Nigerian, you lazy people burnt it down screaming that your jobs have been taken. Is the mechanic shop owned by your government or did south africans contribute to starting the business?
There are pictures of maimed nigerians with an ex-governor..so u want to tell us the pictures were photoshopped or that the nigerians bruised up themselves just to be mischevious.

You aren't even showing remorse for the stupidity going on in your country. Your people are killing fellow blacks because of inferiority and u're here cooking up excuses..I have suffered xenophobic attacks from south africans in the past (I have never been to s.a) on the internet and I know what you pretensive lot are capable of. The same way you came on NL to act holy while hiding your xenophobic intent is the same way your brothers do it.

Where is your army? What has Boko haram got to do with xenophobia..u obviously haven't heard of the word terrorism. Besides S.A won't last up to 30mins under boko haram...too many weak men.

Lastly your MTN, Shoprite etc can move out..no one will miss them..all they do is reap us off...esp MTN..I can also assure you that their staff won't become unemployed cos the companies will definitely be bought over by Nigerians..I'm sure Visafone is praying for MTN to move out.

Don't delude yourself and we really do not need semi-xenophobic attacks here.
Take a back seat!

ABIA: GOD'S OWN STATE

Forget this thing. Na Devil get that state right now

Only God will judge this pdp goons and the ngwa people. The ngwa's want to sacrifice the entire state for sentimental reasons...

T.A Orji threatened this REC to reverse the cancellation of the results, along side the shameless liar Oliseh Metu.

PDP is trash to have Oliseh Metu as 1 of its top members...I didn't support them to rule Nigeria and I won't support them to rule my state. Crappy, crude party full of thieves.

I pity my fellow Igbos...it's just shallow to hype this dirty party.

I know Ikpeazu Orji will win this election and if he wins at the tribunal too I pity the foolish goons that were paid 5k to bully others...they'll suffer the consequenses..their villages will become worse and Abia will drown in poverty while T.A, Ikpeazu and Ikuku get fat bank accounts

tociano009:
pain you, Igbo girls finding money anyhow

How can I be pained? I find money anyhow but I work for it. We still don't jump from husband to husband

tociano009:
waiting to reach 50..... igbo girls sha

That was how y'all said the kidnapper/nanny was an Igbo woman.

I'm sure she's from that tribe that likes to marry more than 1 husband in their lifetime

IsraeliAIRFORCE:


You and Alex Otti are already losers.

It is foolishness for you to dictate Ngwa people, the biggest tribe in Igboland on how they should vote.

They have chosen to vote one of theirs because of your hate and campaign of calumny against one of theirs.

If you have problem with T. A. Orji and his government, then criticize it without bringing Dr Okezie Ikpeazu into as you never see any evil or danger in ex-Gov. Orji Uzor Kalu's support for Alex Otti.

Hypocrites

Tribunal will decide! You and the unenlightened Ngwa people...I refuse to generalise cos we have sane ones...will regret your tribal B.S.

The tribunal will decide...tell Ikpeazu that he can rig heaven and earth but the peoples voice will be heard.

Lastly, tell your master T.A Orji that his cup will soon be full.

Useless PDP tout!

P.S no one is dictating to Ngwa people...they were asked to choose between the Devils in-law and an elite and all they could think of was their tribe. Ako na Uche

*spits on ground*

IsraeliAIRFORCE:


Why is Orji Uzor Kalu already shaking heavens for Alex Otti to win?

To answer your question, political alignment.

Because T.A Orji who he handpicked ruined him and ruined the state. I'm an Abian and I believe any Ngwa person playing the Ngwa card against our development is as insane as T.A Orji and his puppet! We say no to PDP and no to Godfatherism.
All PDP knows is rigging...develop the state mba! If t.a had done well we'll understand. Is it by force...can't we even manage to have a free and fair election without pdp making our lives unbearable? I officially hate that party...they can continue to threaten people but the tribunal will decide it!

P.s eurobomber is right...u should borrow his brain 4 a min

The good thing is, the worst they can do is to sell the company, and when it's been bought over those 6k workers will still have their jobs. Only the Top Management "mostly made up of South Africans" will be reshuffled.
We have nothing to fear

I don't get all this talk about trying u and testing you.

It's easy...simply take her for a fertility test. It can be done in any hospital, not expensive and all couples are even advised to do it before marriage.

If she can have children proceed with the marriage and if she can't I'll advise you to go for someone who can since you obviously want children. I can't ask you to stay with her if she can't have kids cos it'll lead to frustration and unhappiness. But then, you alone know how strong your feelings are.

Best bet OP is that she might still be fertile, abortion only renders women barren if it's not properly done or when complications occur..that's why u hear of some having 9 abortions etc.

Do the test and follow your heart

He's free to take them to the tribunal...especially the PDP members in Abia state that lost at the polling units and won at the LGA.

If he can start with T.A Orji I'll be grateful

An0nimus:


Your initial post did not clarify that. However, whether others see it as a flaw or not is not enough to put it on the same scale with someone that has attitude issues. An attitude problem will always be frowned at regardless of marital status.

You've just answered my question. It's the attitude that earns respect and not the marital status..thank you

An0nimus:


I'm a bit curious why you think being single is a problem/flaw and one that can compared on the same level with a married woman without self respect who fights her neighbours. Personally I don't see it as a flaw that can be pitched against an attitude problem.

A woman who has no self respect and respect for others should not expect any in return. Married or unmarried.

The comparisons on this thread have mainly been between accomplised single women and an unrecognized Aunty married with children which isn't balanced.

If you must mention Genevieve then pair her with Omotola

If you must mention an Ill mannered single banker then pair her with a similar woman but married.

I think then we'll begin to see it's not a straight answer as some of us have earlier given.

Try to read and understand. I personally do not think being single is a flaw (you should have deduced that from my other post). The question is directed at those who think being single is a flaw, the people who are saying being single translates to being a prostitute, or being wayward.

Onyiridike:


Could you explain what you mean by slave mentality?

No achievement worths more than a big happy family.

A lovely husband with beautiful kids in a wonderful home is like a heaven on earth.

We ought to pray to have it.

Yes! We all pray to have it..but as I told you earlier nothing in this world is a do or die affair.

When you believe you must be married to achieve success in life, somehow marriage becomes a bondage to you.

I want a partnership. If I get married it must be for the right reasons (I.E I have found a companion) and not for because I want to please the society. Saying "go and get married" is what I refer to as a slave mentality (slavery is bondage)...when you think that way not only do you become a slave to your husband but to the society at large.

I'll give you an advise...no matter how long it takes you, search for your own man...don't marry for societal respect and because of what people will say...they won't live with you or endure the unhappy times in your marriage. And my dear if you do not find your own man..live your life, afterall men have killed their wives, I personally know of a woman whose husband killed her by pouring acid on her when he found a new bae.

Onyiridike:


God Almighty instituted marriage. No amount of civilization can stop it.

You better go and get married.

God did not create me with a slave mentality, thank you very much. If I'm destined to be married by God's grace I will..and if not, so be it.

Life is about so much more.

An0nimus:


On the contrary you should reread your initial post. Your scenarios were not balanced. You gave the married woman an attitude problem and the single woman none.

If you want I can change the scenarios again giving both parties attitude problems and ask you the same question.

So my question still stands.

I understand your point but you obviously do not understand mine. "Must a woman be married to get respect"- this is the topic right? I gave the married woman an attitude problem because I wanted both women to have a problem. "The married woman with the attitude problem" and The business woman who's single". You can choose to respect the married woman flaws and all because you believe married women deserve respect or disrespect the business woman because she's unmarried. You can also choose to respect the business woman for her great attitude and disrespect the married woman for her bad attitude.

They both have their flaws..so take your pick

An0nimus:

Let's put it this way...
who would earn your respect first

1. A married business woman who helps with bills and has a great attitude.

2. A business woman who pays her own bills, and has a great attitude.

The post is about married women receiving respect regardless of their attitude. My question is more appropriate...you can answer it rather than "fine tune it to your taste"

Onyiridike:


Don't mistake syncomphancy for respect. People praise Genevieve for beauty and achievements but she doesn't have a say in Mbaise where she comes from.

Even her daughter is a bastard. Don't allow anybody to deceive you. Once you get old without a husband, people will praise you for your money and education but call you a prostitute at your back.

It is a different story if no man loves you.

Is marriage by force? Why have you Nigerians made it a do or die affair?

How many of your so called married people are happily married or even really married. This is why we now have high divorce rate and even death rate..wives and husbands killing each other! Simply because they got married to earn societal respect.

Once a girl turns 25 they'll start disturbing her to bring a man home, she'll find the 1st guy she can get without bothering about his attitude and get married to him..after gaining the respect of the society, what next?

She finds herself in a broken home..maybe being maltreated or cheated on by her husband..she wants to leave but thinks of the society. She finally leaves and the same society judges her. (All for respect).

May I never get married for that reason. If I find a good man that suits me fine and if I don't I'd rather be happily single than ruin my life for a society that is only there to jugde.

mutter:
Not my opinion but a fact! Maybe we have some teachers here and others in other related professions who can testify to this.

All I can say to you is "Francistony" is totally right.

Intellegence and wisdom at it's peak.

To the OP...your accomplishments and attitude earn you respect and not your marital status.

Who would earn your respect 1st.

1.) A lousy married woman without "self-respect, who goes about fighting the neighbours.

2.) A business woman who pays her own bills, and has a great attitude.

The whole marriage thing is over-rated and contrary to some believes "only in this part of the world"

Personally, I do not care if you're married or not (that's not my biz) my respect is earned and not dashed

Mannylex:
True... Been there, done that.. Point 2 and 4 is absolutely correct. But sometimes I wonder why love is like that, you love a lady so badly and the next thing all form of interest in lost... In fact the babe starts becoming a bug. Feelings are funny...


Ignorance is bliss.




Have no fear; Mannylex is here

That's because everyone in Nigeria refers to lust and infatuation as Love.

EricDonn:
What is playing out in Abia is not a mass movement for change rather a collection of the vocal literate minority who want to impose their wish on the smart illiterate majority. They are taping into the mythical disdain the Igbos hav for the Ngwa clan, using TAorji's non-perfomance as a cover. Unfortunately for them, the Ngwa pple hav just realised they are actually the majority in Abia State.

U're disgusting. Simply cos the "in law" is from Ngwa then we should close our eyes to the obvious dirty politics playing out in Abia? Your foolish turn by turn mentality practised by only non-entities will be your undoing. Alex Otti is the favourite to win and even if u and the very illiterate lot vote for corruption we shall see at the tribunal.

Khalessi:
Paid protesters no right thinking Igbo man will leave his business on a Monday morning to chase ghosts...

Shut up! Do u know anything about what they're going thru? U just open ur mouth and spew trash cos u have access to internet!

Meanwhile...that place doesn't look crowded...if u're in Abia and u aren't protesting don't complain 2morrow...my people are tired of Thief A Orji, his son and his in-law...na only dem waka come?

I'm hearing that Okezie has been declared winner...how true is this?

I'm getting irritated by people whinning about T.A n his thugs. If PDP wins what will be the way forward...the major thing would be to reject the results because we can't sit and watch PDP decide our faith every election year. For now let's think of strategies incase the worst happens

scarpa:
Confirmed result so far. APGA- 206,360 and PDP-78,663. Internal source in the PDP camp confirmed that they have started trading blame as APGA will be declared winner.

Source please?

zeb04:
My dear brothers and sisters from abia state,I am so excited. I hope alex otti wins.

finally,that my arochukwu road will be repaired phew

I'm hopeful oo..they should do something about our Arochukwu road

I am open to ideas but then one cannot also be ignorant of the
9ja factor of SCAM......i would want you to share your ideas here
on NL so everyone could read it and make inputs.

in order for people to help adequately, it'll be better for u to state the amount of capital u have as well as what interests u

Just got this update from Aba south- pound Road unit 018

oluamid:



And these insults, degradation and mockery is done by only one tribe? I am not a tribalist and if you can be patient and go through some of my posts you will know I'm not.

However, if you just for a minute read the article all over with an open mind then you'll maybe see things a bit from my perspective.

To answer your question. Yes, by 1 tribe...I won't mention, but u know who.

I'm not a tribalist either...some of my best friends are Yorubas and Hausas. Infact I was born in lagos and live in Abuja now...I'm very exposed to those cultures even more than my own. But NL is gonna turn me into a tribalist if I continue to read the crap that people who are barbaric keep posting here.

keshconnections:
Abians lets help ensure our votes count by conducting live monitoring here.
Post updates from your polling unit or booth.
Pictures
Videos
Election result
Etc
Free and Fair Election Advocacy

I just heard that the PDP thugs are kicking APGA reps out of polling units and also doing massive rigging...
How true is this and how can pdp rigging the polls be avoided. Abians pls don't let this happen...protect ur votes

oluamid:


It's is enlightening because it is written from an Igbo stand point?

The tone is vengeful and utterly biased if u ask me.

And it isn't enlightening because it's not from a Yoruba stand point? That's rather hypocritical of u.

The vengeful thing is coming to read the politics section of NL and seeing your tribe insulted, degraded and mocked every single day. Now that's vengeful

I'm really sorry to see what illiteracy has done to some of you on this thread. A post meant to educate u has totally been turned into a tribalistic war thread. After seeing a lot of comments here, I'm glad I'm an Igbo girl and was raised to not make such barbaric and evil comments.

On friday some of una go go mosque, on sunday some go go church...may God deliver your souls from the hatred turning u into demons
