TravelRe: Female Truck Driver Blocks Highway To Protest Harassment By Touts In Abia by ElevationD:
PresidObi:
Stories

Looking at the truck critically, you will see that it's a faulty vehicle. See the caution signs placed careful under, see the glass rolled up as a person who is going away to look for help. The total dersertation of the area tells the whole story.

Look for a towing truck to help the driver.
How can you determine a faulty truck when you are not physically close to it? That’s a very clean drive by the lady and the caution warns fellow drivers coming near to be careful. By the way, are you a mechanic?

That is the regular behavior of truck drivers when challenged by touts and security agents. They block the roads and cause serious traffic that lasts for over one day. That particular road is small and easy for the driver.

We must get to the level where touting and extortion become very serious offences to discourage such people. Touting adds to the prices of goods and services and it is an ever present danger to human lives.

When it comes to drug deals, Igbo men are not local champions. They focus on countries that outlawed recreational drugs. That's where the real money comes. The only way you can make money as a druglord in Nigeria is if you live in Nigeria and ship to other countries. I am not trying to exalt the illicit business though; I am just stating the obvious.
With such in-depth analysis, why not kuku join them? You can also be a lord. Abi money no good for you?

Threats or no threats, progress is still being made.

The government is focused on delivering results, and those who truly want change should engage positively rather than protest negatively.

Let's support constructive dialogue instead!
Well, for those of you who choose to die in silence, we can only congratulate you. BAT/Buhari along with the same Femi Falana and others chose not to die in silence in 2012. The chose the path of occupying Nigeria and save the country then. Hunger has no business with constructive dialogue. A mistake made twice becomes a habit. If in one day, one man’s pronouncement turned the nation upside down and the same man weeks later made another statement making life more difficult for citizens, what would you call that?

“The government is focused on delivering results..”. We already have seen the results and the results further impoverish citizens.

For those who like the same BAT/Buhari, who choose not to die in silence, we say thank you very much.

MasterTeeUSA:
I doubt the German guy will come to Nigeria. You are right, he may never finish that house which tells me this story looks like a spiritual attack. A curse on the family...one son is died, one sister is considered an accessory and the only successful one among them killed his brother. We don't focus on spiritual things, but my guess is, a spirit is involved and that spirit is very angry.

On the other hand, it all depends on what the family wants to do. They might not even report he is around and I doubt we have a system in place to determine those wanted at points of entry. First, they must seek spiritual help...this does not feel normal. Maybe they were not meant to sell the property that was sold.
That’s another angle to it really.
The other part is the German man’s wife to be. She has to prove that she did not forward that money. In all the boys once arrested will say the whole story.

By the way, that an end to their days of crime and killing people with machetes.

Now the Germany based man will be in the run for the rest of his life.
The sister who contracted the killers, despite her denial, became the leader of the group and will serve the rest of her life in prison.
The three vagabonds will spend the rest of their lives in prison. Mr. Jukwaese forgot to jukwaese about the implications of murdering fellow humans.
The Germany based man will not continue the house and will not complete it.
The Germany based man out of his greed, lost his only brother.
Once caught, the Germany based man will spend the rest of his life in prison. By now he’s started regretting his actions.
The family lost two sons and a daughter in the end.

Treat your family and friends well and you will have some peace of mind. Truthfully there may be wayward ones among them. However, no man is all wise, so manage them.

@Bolded,
This is the third time you are going Ad hominem on me. I believe we can debate without insults at monikers.
My reason for that moniker is tongue in cheek because when I joined this forum there were a lot of fake Christians in the religion section and I used that moniker to move against false and fake doctrines by pretending to be confused and not knowledgeable about the contents of the Bible.
I am on the politics section to oppose Ibo supremacist agenda,which is the belief that Ibos are superior to other tribes and an agenda to dominate,subjugate and conquer other tribes spiritually, culturally and economically.
A 66 year report can not superceed the constitution that recognises a tribe as a stand alone people that are an independent entity and a seperate people.
Once again except the Ibo have a hidden agenda, they need to leave the Ikwerre people alone. They don't want to associate with the Ibo. They want to be alone and free. Why are the Ibo trying to force them to be part of an Ibo nation?
Please free the Ikwerre people to be on their own. They don't want to associate with you. It is not by force to be together.
Do not misunderstand me in anyway. We have had a great conversation today and there’s been no need for insults.

In all, you failed to tell us your tribe, even as you tried to give us the Ikwerre story. I have only tried to let you know that “who feels it knows it”, making it difficult for you to understand my position. You failed to respond to the only question that I asked severally and finally acknowledged that you are not an Ikwerre person.

Thank you for your time today and do enjoy the rest of your evening.

Bros, you’re wasting your time on that impostor! Trying to engage with him is akin to flogging a dead horse! It’s obvious he’s suffering from some kind of mental impairment or personality disorder driven by hate and a large dose of bile!

The useless ‘prof’ is yet another post-war revisionist prepared to revise history and through facts under the bus in his bid to try and please his hegemonic masters! I suppose his answer to your well-reasoned argument would be that over the past 200 years, or thereabouts, the Igbo organised meetings in which they plotted and schemed to see to it that the ‘those recently arrived immigrants from Benin Kingdom lost their Benin language and replaced it with Igbo’! That’s the only ‘explanation’ he can come up with, and assuming this was the case, shouldn’t we be clapping for those Igbo of 200 years, or so, ago for effectively hatching and executing such a plot!!?

You are presenting a 66 year old report which has been overtaken by the 1979 constitution that has since recognised the Ikwerre people as a seperate people not affiliated to any other tribe. You need to Google and read up about these things.
As for my tribe,I am not an Ikwerre but I am interested in the minority tribes issues. I am totally against Ibo supremacist agenda which seeks to gobble up the minorities because of desire to access the sea area.
I am not against Ibos but I am totally opposed to an Ibo supremacist agenda that does not consider the rights of minority tribes.
Where is the supremacist agenda?

A 66 year old report according to you, yet it is the history of a particular group of people? So by inference we should discard first hand historical information to satisfy what the constitution says? How can you wish it away? So you want to say today that the Yorubas, who find their history in Oduduwa, should wipe it away if the constitution says so? Again, we should wish away the Benin age long traditions can be wished away because of the constitution?

Confused lady, are you truly not confused?

Sadly you are not an Ikwerre person and presently show very clear and unnecessary bias. You do not speak the language, so you just spent time leafing through pages on the internet in search of information to buttress your claim. No wonder you could not say those words in Ikwerre language. I advise you to ask an Ikwerre person to translate those words into their own language, to confirm to you if there is any difference.

You should not be so passionate about it as you do not understand the feeling. Unfortunately you also have not stated your own tribe.

In all, the Igboid nature of the Ikwerres cannot be wished away.

Ok.

LASU has been seeing some of their old lecturers and now VC getting into positions. Some worked under Tinubu in his capacity as the governor of Lagos, especially as commissioners and SAs.

I think Obafunwa had a reasonable tenure as the VC of LASU, at least better than Hussein, if I am not mistaken.

All we need in the country are good leaders, irrespective of tribe or religion and the country will move forward.

@Bolded,
Can you provide a link to this assertion?


As for your question on how Ibo became a bigger nation than the Ikwerre? History abounds with smaller nation states producing bigger states. You need to read up on a political theory called DIALETICS- the counter forces between THESES and ANTITHESES to produce a SYNTHESES. (The theory of two forces coming together in conflict to produce a new force)
Out of this ashes rises the phoenix. A new nation can come out of an old nation.
Port harcourt state is the name. The Igbos claim Port harcourt as their land.


Now read:
