Politics / Re: Would Gowon Had Fought Biafra If Awo Had Rejected His Offer To Join His Govern't by EkoAtlantic: 12:28pm On Jul 30, 2013 |
Uchek: ...I am conducting a study on how ethnicity affect our response to issues and events Is it possible for ethnicity not to affect our responses on issues when you have people of different mentality, ideology and distinct ways of life forcefully joined together for the interest of greedy oyinbo commandos?! But it got dirtier when those four easterners orchestrated the first ever coup in this country. Killing the rulers of the West and the North, leaving theirs in the east, blocking the niger bridge connecting the West and the North, elevating their eastern general "Ironsi" as the national military ruler and finally appointing easterners as second and third in command. There wouldn't have been any dream of Biafra if those four generals didn't display an extreme act of tribalism, which lead to retaliation: hatred and killing of their tribe men by the Northerners, an act Ojukwu wasn't cool with. The questions should have been, why didn't Ojukwu remember Awolowo was in prison, not until he(Ojukwu) thought Awolowo would have been a tool in achieving his "personal" dream? Why didn't Ojukwu backoff when he realized seven mercenaries and the 4000 civilian converted soldiers he had boasted of weren't enough to free his people, but rather went on exile leaving his people hopeless? Why was an easterner(can't remember his name now) responsible for the breakaway of mid-west from western region, hence weakening the west(indirectly the whole south) and empowering the North with their already massive land and population intentionally created by the oyibos? |

He may have a reasonable reason for that, don't crucify him yet. Didn't he attend one ceremony like that with Oyo and Ekiti state governors two or three weeks ago, that took place in Ibadan? The press only brought up this story to make ret@rdiho posters like the immediate one after your post to display their ignorance. 7 Likes |

Comments from punch site *Governor Fasola: Let the igbos fix 'biafra'. We are tired of the igbos committing bad stuffs in the west. If we have any westerner destitute in Igbo land, please send them back asap. Be careful and honest when you do that because we have all your people building houses all over Lagos etc and westerners are not allowed to do same in Igbo land. No problem about that, we are good people here. but tired of the igbos atrocities. *akara: But on a serious note... My apologies to my Ndigbo brothers but Lagos and south-west is getting too over-populated with Ndigbos.. Ndigbos need to develop their homelands, and reduce immigration to Lagos... Ndigbos need to hold their state governors accountable, Lagos state is not receiving FG allocation that is commensurate with the population in the state, while your various Ndigbo Governors are showing off kangaroo projects with no real development initiatives for Ndigbos.. Pls I am a yorubaman, Nigerians of every race and tribe are living in poverty and hardship.. But I am not a politician, so I have to start my contributions from yorubaland.. *MK SocioPolitical: When there is not enough food to eat, brothers will start fighting brothers. A country is sweet to belong to when there is quality of life within it, otherwise, we will relate to each other based on our differences. Those who we elect to lead and represent us, spend all their time abusing us and committing illegalities against us. Our Police and Armed Robbers - no difference. Our army has only ever raised its guns in anger against fellow Nigerians. Recently our senate has confirmed that within our constitution, it is ok to marry under aged girls and thereby defile them by engaging in paedophilia. Everywhere u turn, hope has been stolen and opportunity murdered. Our leaders look and act so differently from us that we wonder if they are Nigerians. Even when we turn to God, dodgy and scam artist pastors block the way by engaging in false prohecies and false ministries designed to take our last dough. Na Wah Oh! *Amadi Ikwechegh: I guess what Lagos state government did was to drop them at the nearest access point to their hometowns thereby saving them some transport fare. At least the one from Ebonyi state is already closer home, same with Imo state. Aaahhh (scratching my head) my headache now is for the people from the north, it is a long mile from home though, but I guess the Lagos state government know that their people normally bring in onions and goats to head bridge hence their decision. Now what is remaining is for the governments of the other states to reciprocate. Starting with Peter Obi start rounding up all the non indigenes in your state and start shipping them to Sagamu, from there they can find their way.... IDIOTS! 19 Likes |

I'm not against this because of hundreds of crimes ibos bring from their states to SW, hence increasing crime rate in southwest. The briton that was kidnapped in Lagos on Monday was the handiwork of the ibos, same with the wife of one honorable like that in one of the SW states. A 25-year-old man, Chukwuemeka Benson, has been arrested for allegedly kidnapping a British expatriate in Lagos State.http://allafrica.com/stories/201307240347.html/ 26 Likes |

Politics / Lagos Commences Power Generation From Organic Wastes by EkoAtlantic: 11:35am On Jul 18, 2013 |
Gboyega Akinsanmi The Lagos State Government Wednesday said its waste-to-energy project had started generating electricity, which it said was currently being run at a demonstration centre in Ikosi market, Ketu area of the state. The state government also said the bigger waste-to-energy project located at Olusosun land-filled site was being currently capped to trap methane, which it also said would put an end to the offensive odour in the area. The Managing Director of the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA), Mr. Ola Oresanya, disclosed this to THISDAY in an interactive session, saying the bigger waste-to-energy project was already 50 per cent completed. At the session, Oresanya explained that the state “has started generating electricity from wastes. At Ikosi market, we already have a demonstration centre where wastes from the market are processed to generate electricity. “The bigger ones are located at Olusosun landfill site. Olusosun is now being properly capped to trap the methane and this means the offensive odour from the site will be history once this stage is completed. “The infrastructure components are being installed at present and soon, the turbines will arrive, but we cannot set a timeline from the completion yet.” The LAWMA boss added that the waste management sector had been a blessing to the state and its residents at large, noting that more 524, 000 people have been engaged directly and indirectly in the business of waste management. According to him, for now, those who are on the payroll of LAWMA are about 24,000. Those who benefit directly or indirectly from waste management are indeed huge. “If we use the estimate of one person to 15 beneficiaries, we would be talking of about 500,000 people.” The managing director therefore explained that the statistics definitely “gives us a picture of the size of that economy. It is a huge economy and if well managed, it can be a tool for social development and reform.” He explained the state was unrelenting in its effort to build 20 transfer-loading stations, out of which he said two had been completed; one currently under construction with a plan to start constructing another one in Alimosho. He added that the state government no longer wanted refuse dump sites within the metropolis, noting that all refuse collected “will be taken to the stations. Alimosho will definitely have a loading station. The volume of refuse generated on Lagos Island alone is more than the refuse from almost five or six states in the country at a time. The problem of waste management in Alimosho is largely attributed to the attitude of people, and not that the refuse generated cannot be handled.” On the safety of the highway managers, Oresanya lamented the disturbing case of hit-and-run accidents, though acknowledged the incidents had reduced in the last one year due to different measures adopted. http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/lagos-commences-power-generation-from-organic-wastes/153659/ 5 Likes
