Nnamdi Kanu: Militants declare war on FG
Call on United Nations to prevail on go

TWO militant groups in the Niger Delta region have declared their readiness to confront the Federal government in battle for its refusal to release the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Director, Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.
The groups, Concerned Militant Leaders (CML) and Niger Delta People’s Democratic Front (NDPDF) made the declaration yesterday in separate statements in port Harcourt, Rivers State, following reports that there were plans by the Federal Government, to use witnesses in mask, to testify against the leader of IPOB, who was charged of treason in court.
Reacting to the report, leaders of the two groups, General Ben (CML) and Precious Iyoyo (aka General playboy), stated that since President Muhammadu Buhari-led government was determined to cause problem in the country particularly in the South-South and South-East zones, by stubbornly refusing to release Kanu, the groups were ready to cripple the economy.
Specifically, General Ben, who is known for his blunt statements, said when the 31 day-ultimatum given to the federal goverment to release the IPOB leader expires tomorrow, Monday, February 22, the battle line would have been drawn. Ben, in the CML statement, declared that the target areas of the first stage of the uprising would be in Abia and Anambra States, as well as Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
He said that the group’s reason for the two states and Abuja was because they were the major places where Federal Government shed the blood of their “brothers and sisters.”
General Ben declared: “We are ready for Federal Government, which said we would be treated as criminals and saboteurs. The 31-day ultimatum will expire on Monday. We are ready and will attack them in Abia, Anambra and Abuja, where they shed the blood of Biafran brothers and ssters. “We are not going to attack the civilians per se; but we are going to attack the presence of the Federal Government in the areas. If President Buhari could not clear Boko Haram in six months, as he told Nigerians, why didn’t he focus attention on the North? Why did he waste the blood of Biafrans people?

“We are in solidarity with the Biafran struggle and there is no going back. We are taking our revenge. We are not going to spare them. We don’t believe in much talk. Enough is enough,” Ben threatened.
Similarly, General Playboy threatened that any ettempt by the federal government, through security agencies, to use masked witnesses against the IPOB leader, would not go without dire consequencies.
Playboy implored the United Nations (UN) to prevail on the Nigerian government to allow peace reign in the country, freeing Kanu and allowing Biafra to have its sovereignty.
“If this nonsense is allowed to go on, lives of innocent people, both Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo and foreigners will go down.
Many countries parted for peace, why is the case of Nigeria and biafra too difficult? To be together is not by force.
“If they (UN) don’t intervene in this matter, and Nigerian government goes ahead to execute its plans to annihilate Biafrans, we will cripple the economy of this country. All eyes are on government not only Kanu but on Tompolo too. The government is treading on very rough and dangerous path,” General Playboy declared.

According to Wikipedia it is 29 385 square kilometres

and Nigeria is 923 768 square kilometres

i.e the SE is 3.1% of the land mass of Nigeria

To put it in further perspective

Cross River State is 20 000 sq Km

Kwars State is 36 000 sq km
Niger State is 76000 Sq km

Oyo State is 28 454 Sq km

It is important to have this sense of perspective when people start agitating for projects to their zones
The is a very tiny place and is less four 4 percent of Nigeria but want an equal share of projects with zones that are 10 times their size. This is wicked and this attitude should change

Najatu Muhammad have become the first Nigerian to reject appointment from president Buhari.

In a newspaper advert, she wrote:

Re: Federal Ministry of Education.Reconstitution of the Governing Councils of 12 federal Universities.

I, Najatu Muhammad wishes to thank you so much for considering me worthy of being appointed the chairperson of Dutse Federal University. It’s however, unfortunate that I was not consulted before the announcement in the media. I also regret that I have to use the same medium to announce that I can’t accept the appointment for some personal reasons. I will however, remain an ardent supporter of President Buhari in his effort in charting a new course for this country. A course that we pray will put this country back on the path of progress. I will also continue to support the president’s fight against corruption and other ills of this country. My unflinching support for the President will remain for Allah’s sake and country. I pray that Allah will continue to guide and protect our President.

Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Thank you

Najatu Muhammad

some people have to take responsibility for this despicable shame

It is clear that some officials in the MDAs are hell bent on perpetuating corruption in Nigeria

Heads have to roll

What if our senators were drunk & they mistakenly passed the appropriation bill, would the ministers have denied the #BudgetOfCorruption ?

NavierStokes:
He is hoping on Buhari's 2 years in government. That is just needlessly shifting the goal post because at this rate ancd considering realities, in 2 years the system would have collapsed on itself.

erunz:
and this was the same budget Femi Gbajabiamila claim to be the best budget so far.

NavierStokes:
Heaven knows that if all the fraudulent cost items are removed from this budget it can not be more than 4 and a 1/2 trillion. But these people decided to hardwire all sorts of yams into the budget for the saintly goats to devour while proposing to incur huge debts for us and our children.

President Buhari should return to the drawing board and comeup with a new budget of realistic expense items because this particular one (in the words of my friend and ardent Buharist) "does not reflect his character".

Falsehood? He merely gave his opinion base on his personal experience, and so did you. So, I don't see where the falsehood is.

Justiyke4u:
After reading the post I pause to think about it but then after reading people's comments I even became more confused as to whether they are commenting as regards the post above. Is it that people have sold their reasoning away or deliberately playing ignorance. This is an attempt to save some fund for the country at least let's put aside the legal means, judging from the issues raised from the post. Am sure he is not asking court for any damages but then why are people seeing it differently? Is this what politics has turn the brain of nigerian youths to? Chai chai chai chai

ShowYourCertificate:
I had thought Buhari was the only dullard but I thought wrong. Falana is even a bigger dullard.

if I were Buhari, I'll make a mess of Falana by setting up a special task force in charge of recovering the imaginary $20.2 billion and I'll make Falana to lead the task force. That would do the trick. Let's see how the garrulous Falana will be tamed into realising that there was no $20.2 billion after all

I am an ibibio currently residing in umuahia the Abia state capital, i didn't kwn that igbos hates us (cross riverine/ ibomite ) that much. Calling us various names , alleging that we didn't support them during the civil WAR rather we were killing them, there hold us in mind to the point that is even hard to associate freely with them, their girls are very tribalistic loving only their ibo guys seeing boys of other regions as slowpokes becos there are faithful and secere . There (igbos) are not secere people always trying to dupe at anytime. I wonder the tribe igbo will allied with if there can't allied with us their neighbour. North no like dem yoruba the same thing. To the best of my knowledge as a calabar guy wer i be my forefathers many of them where brafrans soldier but now there are trying to rewrite history inorder to develop hatred.

TI lost credibility like every other institution under Jonathan.
A clannish youth has been the TI Nigerian resident commissioner for the past few years.
The one , who during an interview, no one asked ,but was compelled to tell us that he had less than $5000 in his account.
Guilty conscience?
Even in the midst of
1 fuel subsidy fraud
2 Tranfigura fraud
3 Malabu fraud
4 Excess crude account fraud
And all other manner of fraud never seen in the history of the country.
They claimed that the Nigerian Index was improving .
Who are they deceiving ?
I have no doubt in my mind that the index in the last few year were fixed, bought and paid for .
Nigeria is the most fraudulent country in the world and Buhari, if he thinks is has started fighting corruption is a joker.

I agree. They want to raise profile of their facebook with visits at expense of Yoruba. Yoruba get propaganda pass. If the topic is good to post in nairaland, then the story must not be left behind in fb, bring it in here.

[size=15pt]Kwara: The Nupe-Yoruba Clash: Our Own Nupe Side of the Story[/size]

The Yoruba people have resorted to distorting the story of the recent Tsaragi-Share clash in the media. They are planting false reports and news in the national dailies claiming that they are the victims of an attack by an irate mob of our Nupe youth from Tsaragi. That claim is of course a capital and defeatist lie.

We don’t have the money or the political clout to make the Nigerian national dailies tell distorted and false stories about the Tsaragi-Share clash. But we have this NCRC (Nupe Cultural and Resource Center) Facebook page to let the world know of our own side of the story. With over 40,000 (forty thousand) members and over 500,000 (five hundred thousand) regular visitors this is, you can’t believe it, the most powerful media outreach in KinNupe and among the Nupe people throughout...>>>READ: http://naijapropa.com/the-tsaragi-share-clash-our-own-nupe-side-of-the-story/
