Igbo will only become president only by quota system. Biafra or Presidency?

This one na correct Eze of Abuja

We all know biafrans are very strong and bold, it's biafra or death...

Nobody wants to do die for Biafra anymore. as u dey protest dey watch your back

When and where is Biafra protest after yesterday deadly blow to biafrans.
it's unfortunate non-peaceful biafra protest turned bloody and resulted to many casualtie yesterday. I want to believe the action of our securities yesterday is finally putting an end to this unnecessary protest because I overheard Mama Chukwudi today warning his only son to stay away from biafra protest.

May the souls of those who lost their lifes yesterday rest in peace and give sense to their likes.
Kudos but no thanks to our security.

This is not OBJ

The Lion should have been druged and tamed. why should they kill the innocent lion.

The Roman-Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Matthew Kukah has said Northern Nigeria elites indirectly created terrorism as they used religion to deceive poor Muslims. Kukah made this disclosure in his keynote address at a conference organised by the Islamic Welfare Foundation at the Fountain University, Osogbo.



Speaking on the theme, ‘The Muslim agenda for Nigeria: Challenges of development and good governance’, Kukah said: “A hypocritical elite continues to believe that it can claim the benefits of democracy but use it only to consolidate its hold on power. This is what has laid the foundation for what is now Boko Haram. We must locate the current crisis of Boko Haram within the context of the inability of the northern Muslim elite to live by their own dubious creed of being Muslims. They preached Sharia Law but only for the poor. They preach a religion that encourages education, yet their own people are held in the bondage of ignorance.



“They came to power on the basis of a democratic society but they turned around and declared Sharia to generate a false consciousness among the poor that they want a theocracy. They did not wish to live by the same standards, so they decided to live their own Islam in the capitals of the world away from the prying eyes of their own people. Boko Haram began as a revolt against this mendacity, subterfuge and hypocrisy.





“Now, I hear Muslims in northern Nigeria hiding under the cover of the facts by saying: ‘These Boko Haram people are not Muslims. They do not represent us’. Well, first, they are your own children. You must take responsibility for what has made them what they are today and to the rest of society. They claim they have been inspired by the Quran and no other holy book. They say they want to build an Islamic state. So, they are Muslims. After all, from the debates of the Constituent Assemblies of 1979, 1988, and 1995 and beyond, did their fathers and grandfathers not stage walkouts, demanding Sharia Law? Was it not to tame them that President Ibrahim Babangida declared what he called ‘no-go areas’ in the debates about our constitution?



“The promise to institute Sharia has become the most potent tool for political mobilisation and organisation. Till date, the tactics may have changed, but the essence has not. Rather than face the tough questions of how and why over 15 million children in the northern states are on the streets; how and why the northern states are falling behind on almost every index of development, the northern Muslim elite continues to live for just the moment, with no plans for tomorrow.


“Should we pretend that a society that allows the forced marriages of its young daughters could frown on the idea of a group kidnapping and forcing young girls into sexual slavery? Islam must have an honest look at the mirror and have an internal discussion. Although we all seem to pretend that Boko Haram has caught us unawares, the worst thing is that we continue to hide our heads in the sands of self-deception by further denying the roots of this ugly side of our humanity.



“That Boko Haram, its disciples and victims are localised to northern Nigeria, should be instructive. What this calls for is an honest review of the root causes. We need to ask what it is about the past or the present that has led us to this ugly and deadly path. It is my considered view that northern Islam has to confront the realities of taking its religion into the modern world of democracy seriously. Muslims in northern Nigeria cannot accept democracy and reject the inclusive nature of its philosophy as it is the case today.”

true talk

voltron:
SON and Wife are 2 different things.. meanwhile what are her merits BTW since you know that much about Roli.
List out her achievements and I will show you her incompetence

Until somebody head a particular sector or agency with absolute power and responsibilty, you cannot determine her competency because she is not in charge and all her achievement may be personal. I cannot list her achivement because I'm not her image maker neither the image breaker to list her incompetence at the moment. You may show us her incompetence if you feel like

voltron:
Why do you think well built institutions frown on such anomalies.. it is only in Churches and Failed Governments you have such anomalies.. there is a reason for that.. it is likely you can see beyond the obvious

So if your dad is Bode George, you as a son cannot reach the peak of ur career because ur dad was convicted one way or the other. my point is that if the woman deserves and merit the position, they should not bacause of her husband issue or his political affiliation deprive her of her post as the most senior high ranking officer in the NDLEA

voltron:
why not make Abacha's Wife the Minister of Finance then.. see why we are where we are today?

If Abacha's wife happens to be a career woman she should be able to reach the zenith of her if she has the merit and capability.

ValerianSteel:
I never knew Bode George is married to a transgender

Thank you

What next after the protest. tomorrow is another day

This woman deserves it regardless of her husband political affiliation.

This post is full of lies and far from truth

This's not a good time to be in Nigeria when buhari is making country men feeling hell from petroluem scarcity and other issues

If Biafra or ibos like they can go ahead and protest in Osogbo, It does't change the fact that Kanu will remain in DSS detention for long.
You guys should use ur brain and back out from a lost battle

Bunch of fanatics and enemy of peace....

Flat headed thinz...

Rapmoney:
For years, this Nigerian artiste thrilled us with bunches and dozens of trash! Many Nigerians actually spent this time dancing to his 'beats' filled with meaningless statements as lyrics!!! . It became so annoying when people who know nothing about good music and the generes of music in general started referring to TerryG as a hip-hop artiste!!! What an insult to hip-hop!!! Though, that didn't disturb me much because I know a lot of Nigerians don't even know how to classify music/songs.

When TerryG started this music thing some years back, he was producing and doing RnB. According to him, he wasn't selling records; he decided to 'commercialize' not only his songs but also his life. He introduced all he could into his music...flagrant display of weed smoking, drinking, celestial church bell ringing (Akpako) and other stuffs. After that, he became popular and was riding on the wings of commercial music. For TerryG, the sky was the only limit! .

Today, the irrelevance of this artiste in the Nigerian music industry is very clear; in fact, it is as clear as DSTV!!! . The young man doesn't have anything else to talk about; his weed, drink, Mr bling bling, bell ringing and other stuffs have not been able to save him. That is what is obtainable when one commercializes his music and loses his talent in the process!!! No matter how commercial you go, always remember to keep your talent intact. I know so many Nigerian artistes that are no longer heard after a short time because they either lost their talent or lacked real talent in the first place I believe Wizkid, Davido and some other music folks would still be in the limelight even in years to come because they still retained elements of their talent and sanity musically! As far back as year 2000, I was nodding my head to songs by the likes of Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, etc. Today, it may interest you to know that I am still doing that...and proudly too. Why? It is because they do commercial music but still retained their talent! They do music that suit the American populace, even down to Asia and Africa!!!

Nigerian artistes should learn how to be creative to stay relevant! It is not all about dishing out beats and crazy senseless lyrics to members of the public!!! Where is D'Smart that dis that song about pikin that wanted to drink small stout? No where to be found because he lacked real talent. He was only there to pick the few Naira notes he could while the fake fame lasted!

Recently, some artistes have reared their heads from no where and have started dishing out meaningless trash to the public. Let's see if the 'Share the gala, share the cake' artistes will still be relevant in the industry in the next two years!!!

something of this kind was written about Dbanj about two or three years ago here in nairaland, today dbanj is still flying.
Don't write any musician off or pull them down with your pen pls if you want to go far. Life sometime is full of ups and downs

No hidden place for the father of these dogs....

What Igbos want is presidency and this protest has denied them even in the future untill they learn how to love other nigerians

Another dirty slap on the dead body of Biafra
