PoliticsRe: Kiswahili Should Be The Official Language Of Africa by escapefromusa(f): 7:02am On Mar 21, 2017
mulattoclaroo:
People of colour make up one third of the world's population and due to this factor the need to have a central language every African anywhere in the world can relate with is necessary. By the term "African" I am equally referring to Caribbeans (Haiti, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Dominican Republic, Bahamas, Bermuda, Barbados etc), African Americans, Afro-Cubans, Afro-Brazilians, Afro-Argentines, Afro-Colombians, Afro-Costa Ricans, Afro-Venezuelans, Afro-Mexicans and every country in the Americas where there's an African population outside the continent of Africa.

Recently a lot of African Americans have been migrating to Ghana, Sierra Leone and other parts of Africa and they're also connecting more with their African identity. This to me is a step in the right direction because they are Africans who were displaced by the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade and the Trans Saharan Slave Trade. Let's put aside the global separation amongst melanated people because at the end of the day we are all Africans. Let's equally reach out to the Dravidian people of India, Aboriginal Australians, Samoans, Papua New Guineas and every melanated person from the Pacifics as well.

I am half Nigerian and half German but I've long embraced my African spirit because Black people are the root of every civilization and from which every race evolved. Before the demise of great Pan Africanists like Mummar Gadaffi, Kwame Nkwurah, Patrice Lumumba, Thomas Sankara, Marcus Garvey and the Great emperor Hallie Selassie, they preached Pan Africanism and the need to embrace our African spirit. It's time to have an African Central Bank and also a unitary currency to put an end to modern day slavery and Neo-colonialism.

This is an entirely private development. Run by private money, not public money. So your notion that "Lagos"should have focused elsewhere doesn't cut it as Lagos is not focused on Eko Atlantic. Chaugory & his Southern Energyxteam are the ines focused on It.
Tree huggers are anti capitalist. the OP is a tree hugger but it's unfortunate the weak will has always and will always pay for the rise of capitalism.

And capitalism... is on the brink of Nigeria. For all the development and mordenization this country needs to feed, protect and engage her populace are all born of capitalism. Even China embraced capitalism eventually....

chiraqDemon:
Most nigerians are on the same social and economic level as efe and they understand him more than they understand the others
Efe knows that the ppl in that house are of higher social standing than he is and thus he remains humble and tries to play calm and learn from them....another point for him

If he was among ppl of his social standing he would b more outspoken. Eg if efe entered ur parlour and u were rolling weed and on ur boxers or sum, do u think he would be like "please excuse me, can u pass a rizler or two", he would be like "oboy u just de here de blow u nor consider me" and dive into the polythene or paper bag and roll himself one

Btw he also knows that ppl are watching him from outside the house (a fact that most housemates seem to have forgotten or ignored) he knows that his behaviour in there will form ppls opinion of him and so he baheves as good as he can given the circumstances

Thats what it takes to be liked by ppl
Not going nude or denying ur family or some or being fake
Nigerians appreciate being real (in short the whole of africa)
Efe has the correctest game plan in there
Bros you forget, his smallie... Marvis' dey give am street cred... well well.

Everybody need someone to blame for their failure's.

The east in particular blames northern Nigerian for her political and social poverty.
The east also blames the West for repeated failure at political relevance.

Nobody has issue's with the Hausa's (banza bakwai or otherwise), it's just that the east has been peddling alot of bullshit about the North for so long[b] people are started[/b] to believe them. They also peddle alot bullshit about the west.

Eziokwuegbuozoo:
Re you saying that France's support is superlative requirement for restoration of Biafra?
It's like the stock market idiot, where one big dog goes several are bound to follow. A diplomat air's the views of its nation.

Biafra has always been a joke to well versed politicians home and abroad. Countries spend millions of dollars and man hours for Sudan, Libya and Syria ... nobody want to support anything remotely similar to this.

Other issues include Brexit, the British exit also proves that 90 - 95 % of the populace never knew what was going on or understood what would come after brexit and england has very good communication networks. If this is the case in that nation, what is the current state of the easterner who support biafra. Do they understand the implications ?

Back to France, Like England to Nigeria et.all, France is Liege to several nations in Africa. So, it is safe to assume that francophone nations will follow suit. The UK will not even condone the idea, we can see this from their total avoidance of the nnamdi kanu issue. That lives Russia, China and the US. China wont' recognise Biafra, as we have replicated in the past. We don't recognize Taiwan. The United States, always looks at strategic interest in lay mans terms net present value. If its cheaper to keep Nigeria and keeping Nigeria in one peace is in line to the present strategic interest of the united states. Then the US will do as it always has - do what's best for the United States.

So you see Biafra... was never a good idea. It's entire success is built on the oil from the Niger-Delta which is why this group has several times claimed port-harcourt and other regions including Akwa-Cross as Biafran.

PoliticsRe: Anambra State Is The Richest State In Nigeria by escapefromusa(f): 3:32pm On Mar 10, 2017
opinion1:
My friend saying alakija unseated oprah in 2014 and because of fall in oil price became no14 in 2017 is plain exaggeration just to magnify her beyond her limits. Alakija has only become the richest black woman and richer than oprah in the year 2014 ever since she was born and never was it heard if again... Carlos slim at one time emerged the richest man when he topped bill gates for just 3 years (2010-2013). But bill gates regained his no1 spot since then till now. So if alakija "unseated" oprah in 2014, then oprah has repeatedly misplaced alakija since 2015 till date.

And you said oprah EMERGED IN 2017 shows exactly why i am commited at debunking afonja lies but you will always jump from one excuse to another when caught. Oprah emerged as what in 2017? Oprah is still not the richest black woman in 2017, so are you saying oprah emerged richer than alakija in 2017, because that happened way back in 2015. Smart monkey!
Why you wasting your energy... are you just angry an "woman" from the west made it to forbes yet, the "men" from the east are scantily clad in that respect.

My friend stop exposing yourself in public. Folorunsho unseated who? Forbes 2017 states clearly that oprah is richer than alakija even though oprah is not the richest.

Next time dont be too quick to score a cheap point, do your research well.

I am not from Anambra but i think as a people(as indigenes of a state) they are collectively the richest in west africa. And the vast majority of them come from nnewi LGA. I think any state that has nnewi as one of its LGA should be richest cos those people are condemned to billions only

Igboid:
No. I base my argument on the fact that none of the non Igbo actors in the coup accused Nzeogwu and Ifeajuna of carrying out an Igbo coup, despite the fact that they saw the emergence of Ironsi and death of other regional leaders as the aftermath of the coup.


The coup and events leading up to it led to the death of Akintola and Saraduna,( two staunch enemies of Awolowo that led to his incarceration) and the freedom of Awolowo. Considering that Awolowo had a history of attempt at usurping constituted authorities in the past, it's not hard to see why the coup could be tagged Awo coup, despite the fact that the actors never said so.
That your logic could be turned against you.
Ask yourself, if it was not an Ibo coup - what was it ?

napoleon77:
The highlighted above is factually incorrect!

The North ruled for 6 years in a democratic regime in the 1st republic
The North ruled for 4 years in a democratic regime in the 2nd republic
The North has ruled for 4 years in democratic regimes in the 4th republic (2 years for Yaradua and 2 years for Buhari)
TOTAL 14 years

The West has ruled for 8 years in a democratic regime in the 4th republic
TOTAL 8 years
Your the one who is mistaken. The west has ruled longest since Nigeria gloriously exited military rule. An event orchestrated by a northern general.

What was Nigeria's political and geographical structure in this first and second republic ? What was our military structure as it ruled ?

The north could have clenched power once more in 1999 if it had to ... who could have stopped them. Their political machinery seems to always have plan a, b and c. Supporting the west in 1999 was and still is a strong signal, one which you have failed to realize because you have polluted your observations with non correlated data.

Igboid:
What we know so far from history:

1. Fajuyi mentored and supported Nzeogwu and co coup. He obviously never saw it as an Igbo coup.

2. When the coup failed, Fajuyi still never saw the coup as Igbo coup, he shielded Nzeogwu and co from execution as he pleaded their case before Ironsi.

3. Ademoyega one of the key actors of the coup at no point called the coup Igbo coup, even after it failed

4. The propaganda of "Igbo coup" as propagated by treacherous elements from south west could not stand without first exonerating Fajuyi from the coup, and this they had to do by propounding the Matyr falsehood story for Fajuyi, but we know better. wink
Your base you entire argument on Fajuyi . Your logic is as follows:

Since Fajuyi is Yoruba and supported a largely Ibo coup plotist, the coup could have never been an Ibo thing.

However, if it were not an Ibo coup an eastern leader would not have emerged. Neither would a majority of the post be given to easterners.
