Saraki's absence was not a coincidence by any chance.

Saraki is surely not comfortable with the emergence of Tinubu as the head of the reconciliation committee.

His countenance and body languages changed immediately Tinubu got appointed - enough to show that he was not consulted before such descion was harshed. Wise decision by the presidency though - a joker to bring out the true colours of various APC stakeholder's at the dying minutes of the 2019 plots...

He became embittered and had since lost interest in playing along with the APC bigwigs but rather opted for a change in strategy which includes intensifying his hussles for new political alliances starting with his apperance at the staged Senator Magnus Abe's thanksgiving in Rivers State.

One thing though, he is a very intelligent politician. One of the smartest in recent times, and must surely be up to some surprise.

Who/what is boko haram? Se animal, place abi thing ni?

Back to topic.

If we are to go by the drafted script they have been acting all along, the Shekau dude would be arrested or claimed to have been killed few weeks to the 2019 general elections only to escape or resurface few weeks after elections...and the movie continues...

Obviously, Buhari or someone much older from the North would win.

Not because of the flawed statistics but because Buhari, his Northern power brokers together with their foreign backer -
Britain - do not respect due process, hence the rigging mechanism had long been concluded only awaiting implementation.

This efforts by OBJ would be fruitless....

The mere geographical expression of a Country is under siege.

Until the right thing is done and God forgives and intervenes, I see Buhari or someone much older than him ( apparently a man with walking aids) returning in 2019...

These nincompoops would never get it. Is it not in the spirit of th Igbo proverb that it said that “a man who does not know where the rain began to beat him cannot say where he dried his body"

Igbo presidency is beyond Buhari, hence Igbo presidency can never ever come from him. Rather more impunity and execution of his master's islamisation agenda.

11. None of the above. Best choice is loss of Buhari's work space when the office of the president was allegedly hijacked by rats.

An anointed of God does not paint the truth and God does not condone lukewarmness or sitting on the fence.

You can either serve God or Buhari. You either speak the truth blazingly or prepare for hell. Forget all these your magomago or sugar coated tounge.

I saw mass exodus of people looking like refugees in checkpoint manned by Fulani security agents.

Again I saw killings and annihilation of monumental proportion of these escaping refugees by another set of Fulani's following tip-offs from their colleagues who had mounted the initial road blocks.

This is not a joke. We need serious prayers for God to avert this impending blood shed

People from the middle belt need prayers at this time

putin4:
Something is wrong in Nigeria, I can see it.does it mean that fulani control Nigeria ? Somebody should answer me this question

Yes, they do. Since 1902

Abia!

Satan jam satan

FFK finally repentant? and gradually coming back to his senses after reading the bible scripture below:
John 8:32
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

For your mind! This guy was so mean to kanu and made Kanu so nervous whenever Kanu is around him.

He was one of the greatest though... you can't take that away from him

Jerusalem: Malaysia army 'ready' to play role
aljazeera.com Dec 10, 2017 11:25 AM
The Malaysian Armed Forces are waiting for instructions from the top leadership, the Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said [File: Dondi Tawatao/Reuters]
The Malaysian Armed Forces are waiting for instructions from the top leadership, the Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said [File: Dondi Tawatao/Reuters]
Malaysian defence minister has said that the United States' decision to make Jerusalem the capital of Israel was 'a slap in the face for the entire Muslim world', pointing out that his country's military is prepared to perform its duty if its services are required .

"We have to be prepared for any possibilities. The ATM [Malaysian Armed Forces] has always been ready, waiting for instructions from the top leadership," the Malaysian state news agency Bernama quoted Hishammuddin Hussein as saying.

"Let us pray that this dispute would not lead to chaos," Hussein added.

The dramatic shift in Washington's Jerusalem policy triggered demonstrations in the occupied Palestinian territories, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia, Algeria, Iraq and countries around the world.

Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein
On Sunday, about 10,000 Indonesians rallied outside the US Embassy in Jakarta in support of Palestinians, the Associated Press news agency reported.

The protesters are carrying banners reading "US Embassy, Gets Out from Al Quds," ''Free Jerusalem and Palestinians" and "We are with the Palestinians." Al-Quds is the Arabic name for Jerusalem.


More than 10,000 people have protested in front of the US embassy in Jakarta [Firdaus Wajidi/Anadolu]
Violation of UN resolutions
Sunday's protest, organised by the Islamist Prosperous Justice Party, was the second since Trump's decision on Thursday.

President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo has strongly condemned Trump's move, which he described as a violation of UN resolutions.

Indonesia, as the world's most populous Muslim nation, has long been a strong supporter of Palestinians and has no diplomatic ties with the Jewish state.

Israel occupied East Jerusalem in 1967 war, but no country in the world recognises it.

Jerusalem remains at the heart of the Israel-Palestine conflict, with Palestinians wanting East Jerusalem as the capital of their future state, while Israel says the city, which is under Israeli occupation, cannot be divided.

The US president also announced the relocation of US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem – a step that might take years to complete.

Nzuzu!

you are a super smart being.


the report is for the northerners to read and enjoy as well as masturbate on the atrocities their northern soldiers committed in the east.

it is meant to entice and massage their lust for igbo blood!


guess the newspaper - daily trust!




one day, just one day.

BIAFRA WILL BE A REALITY.


WE WILL PURSUE IT INTELLIGENTLY - FROM THE WORLD FORUM.


IT WILL START REAL SOON.

WE ARE ALREADY A NATION - THE GREAT IGBO NATION! WE NEED OUR OWN COUNTRY!

To God be the glory nwanne!

Do you remember the repeated declaration "Tell Pharoah, I am the Lord."

Our ancestors were in captivity in Egypt for 430 years. The punishment and suffering was even more severe, but at the appointed time in God's calender, he delivered them with the declaration "Tell Pharoah, I am the Lord".

When the time for my people to be liberated -and the time is nearer than ever- a million Buhari's, Obasanjo's, the Hausa-Fulani oligarchy, their muslim yoruba masturbating counterpart...not forgeting their foreign conspirators would have no option than to let go, with a roar from God Almighty in like manner " Tell Buhari et al, I am the Lord".

Anyone else notice how flawed and negatively intent this write-up is?

Ndi Igbo need togetherness now more than ever. You need to find a way to embrace them while attempting to remove the foil from their eyes.

Your actions on this forum if properly harnessed could form a formidable and effective tool for empowerment.

prodigy24:
First of all I want to thank you for your sincere opinion.
However, I was very careful that is why I did not generalise. I used the word
"Some" so you are out of the list.
I grew up in Lagos with my parents, though I was not born there. I have many cousin who grew up there too, and when you hear them talk,You spit. Honestly its disheartening, the Igbo Americans are very Igbo to the core, you need to see igbofest and some other programs being organized by young people of Igbo extraction in American. They pride themselves as Igbo America. They wear it like crown. Example Jidenna, look at that young man, he carries Igbo on head like gala. Compare him with Lagos born artists like Gideon okeke, samklef and DJ zeez. These three persons s are Igbo born with no respect for Igbo culture. They are very despicable.

Then, to those points you raised.
1. Yes Igbo people are very Republican in nature.

2. There are divergent opinions in the East. It is very healthy if you ask me. I don't really like the herds mentality. It encourages incompetence.
3. Yes, very true, it is very healthy. But you will agree with me that,these people may differ but only on methodology of Nnamdi KANU. They will never insult the
Igbo people and its culture in any way..

But I don't want to centre this discussion on nnamdi KANU. Let us focus on the topic.
4. Lagos is, but it doesn't explain why they chose to be ignorant and silly. I went to secondary school in Lagos, and university in the East. I have the first hand information on what I'm saying. I met these so called lasgidis in school, their reasoning was very uncultured and annoying. They prefer speaking Yoruba to Igbo. I picked a fight with them occasionally. I exposed and shredded them. That they became very ashamed of themselves. They would think they are better than Eastern Igbo, they will be quick to label someone igbotic. In fact I took it very personal if I hear someone say igbotic in derogatory way back then in school.
5. No, their own divergent opinion is always laced with staggering ignorance! They don't know what Nigeria is. To them they are being carried away with what they see on the screen.
6. We may have not had the kind of leadership we deserve, but remember. Most of our leaders are suffering from defeatism. They were humiliated during the war. So I'm not counting on them again.

We are the one that will produce the renowned leader we are seeking for, and that's why Nnamdi a British Igbo had to step up. Many will follow too.

However, What I am saying has nothing to do with leadership. It is the attitude of some of our people born and brought up in Lagos. How about Igbo Americans that have been very formidable? Who is mentoring them?
7.
Yes, you have actually given me the excuses, on why they are very problematic and ignorant.
Igbo lagosians like you need to do more to save this trend. It is becoming embarrassing.
They have this fantasy that's beclouding their reasoning, maybe because of what they see on the screen.I just don't know.

Lest I forget to mention that I commend your passion. Your observations as regards the attitude of Ndi Igbo resident in Lagos are valid. But then, this is also correct for all Igbos. For Igbo is Igbo and there is no such thing as Igbo Lagosian or what have you.

Just like the Igbos control the movie industry, the Yorubas on the other hand are masters of the media. You have to give it to them. They own and control influential media houses in Nigeria and use them to their astronomical advantage. Lagos is the operational base of majority of these media houses.

Therefore one could be right to say that the opinion, psychology and the thought processes -over the years- of majority of the Igbos resident in Lagos and other south west states are constantly being shaped by news/information emanating from these Yoruba owned media houses being the direct recipients.

Imagine the impact of being strategically fed with propaganda through out your life? You should then begin to see why I summerised it as a leadership failure from Igbo leaders.

Don't forget that these information from these media houses are basis for which social, political, cultural and economic debates and discussion are shaped.

Ever thought of the collosal impact the above mentioned points already fermented on the psyc of your "Igbo Logosians". What are young Igbo minds being fed daily by Yoruba controlled media, schools etc? Food for thoughts

The statement that "Igbo Lagosians are problematic and ignorant to Igbo nation" sounded stereotypical to me and believing this to be so looks fallacious.  According to your analogy, I should be considered an Igbo Lagosian being born and raised in the heart of Lagos. However, contrary to your postulation, I am one of the greatest advocate and champion of Igbo agenda, course and culture at home and particularly in the diaspora. Being a Lagos breed never shaped my thought process negatively.

Here are few questions to consider however:

1. Is it no longer a fact that ndi Igbo are republican in nature?

2.  Are political views and opinion of Igbo political, traditional, religious, social, opinion leaders; elites and mases at home divided or unified? Use the Mazi Nnamdi Kalu declaration of "No referendum No election"  as a case study.

3. While mulling on Q2 reflect on the opinion of the following individuals on the issue raised in Q2 based on the classification in Q2 and mirror it against your declaration. 1. Ekweremadu 2.The so called South East Governors 3. Igbo legislators 4. Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo leadership 5. The Obi of Onitsha who happens to be the leader of South East traditional rulers 6. Rev. Mbaka 7. Charles Oputa aka Charlie boy 8. Anambra Lawyer Association ...just to mention a few.
Are the views of the listed individuals or group converging or divergent. Is it any different from that of the so called Igbo Lagosians subgroup?

4. What city has the largest concentation of Ndi Igbo outside Igbo land....Lagos peharps?

5. If we both agree it is Lagos. Is it not logical to expect that the number of ndi Igbo with divergent opinion would also be highest in number considering Lagos has the largest non-Igbo state population?

6. Have you ever looked at this issue as a failure in leadership? Past Igbo leaders lacked foresight and ought to have involved themselves in massive educational, empowerment and  awareness campaigns in Igbo communities outside Igbo land.

Otherwise beside what Nnamdi Kanu is doing now, do you have any record where any renounced Igbo leader or group of leaders ever involved himself/herself/themselves in sanitization or political emancipation of ndi Igbo resident in Lagos through any known awareness campaign?

7. Hope this answers your question to some extent?

Afam4eva:
It's because of people like you that other countries think we're dumb as a people.

The OP asked a very concise question; "Who Can Lead The PDP Back To Aso Rock?"

No, i can't lead PDP back to Aso rock and neither can you. only a popular politician can do that and the person will have to be from the north to be able to steal some votes from whoever the other party (APC) presents. I don't understand why this simple question and my answer should be difficult to decipher.

You do not know my background and therefore cannot possibly determine my faith.

Moreover, I do not mean to undermine you,  afterall I pointed out that you had all it takes to rule your country.  Political affiliations, religion, ethnicity or what have you should not pose any limitation. What you lack is courage, determination. political will and foresight.

With a top notch agenda coupled with the features listed above the Nigerian presidency could be within reach

You mentioned popularity, do you know you are already popular on Nairaland. Do you also know Nairaland is one of the leading online community platform in the world. No.1 in Africa and obviously Nigeria, in terms of membership. So all you could do is work out a blue print, start and build up your campaign in Niaraland.

Then take a step further by visiting any PDP office or better still visit the link below for a membership form:
 http://peoplesdemocraticparty.com.ng/?page_id=69

Your popularity on Nairaland if well harnessed should translate to followership and popularity in PDP if you are able to properly market your agenda.

I only wanted you to see possibilities where there seem to be limitations considering most Nigerian youth look up to you for leadership after all individuals like Obama, Buhari and a host of others turned what looks like thier limitations into possibilities. So why can't you?

Afam4eva:
PDP needs a strong northerner to wrestle some northern votes from either Buhari or whoever APC decides to field. When that is achieved, i think the south is pretty much ope to anyone especially in the south east and south-south where Buhari or APC is hated even more than satan.

Sorry to say this, but you sounded like a brain watched fellow with severe low self esteem.

The rate at which you arrived at your conclusion to narrow your search light towards the north in search of a replacement without giving it a second thought is mind boggling.

Whatever happened to yourself. What makes you disqualified to rule Nigeria considering you are of age, articulate, sharp and enlightened?

You need to reformat your thought process and mind set asap bro.

Thank you

Words of a wise man

There is this common assertion that says:
" never to confuse education with intelligence or knowledge with wisdom because they are not the same"

The so called Anambra lawyers who claimed to be learned have once again proven the above assumptions to be accurate.

Otherwise, almighty common sense which cannot be obtained in the four corners of Nigerian law schools should have dictated to these embracers of western education that:

1. Eri who was the progenitor of the Igbo race settled in Enugwu Aguleri when he arrived via the Omambala-Izu confluence over 2000 years ago. Hence Omambala corrupted for "Anambra" becomes the ancenstral home of all Igbos. As a result every Igbo man has a stake in "Anambra". For before the creation of the so-called "Abia state" by the divide and rule tactitians, the entire geographical location of "Abia" and part of "Ebonyi" were merged into the present day "Imo state" while present day "Enugu state" was lumped into "Anambra". Hence the so-called "Imo State" was carved out from Anambra state. Thereby making "Anambra" the melting point of Igbo civilization.

2.The Igbo culture, tradition and wisdom predates that of the colonial masters.

3. Biafra with her history and wisdom long existed before the advent of the colonialist who came along with their foreign education, language and divide-rule strategy; all of which the so-called Anambra Lawyers rather chose to embrace and flaunt beautifully.

4. You do not let your common enemy know what  you have in mind (Agbakata izu, onye nti ike anu ya)

5. What ever legal assistance rendered by the so- called convener to Nnamdi Kanu and by extension IPOB has been rubbished by this press release.

In the end, when you mirror the arguments presented by Nnamdi Kanu against that of the so called lawyers one would have to admit that Nnamdi Kalu's arguments appeared more superior.
By and large, these ASLAAD guys just proved that "wisdom is more precious than rubies" - Proverbs 8 : 11.


Btw, I am young man below 40, an important title holder and noble man from Omambala making me a stakeholder in the topic of discussion and by the grace of God, a high achiever and scholar ( western education inclusive).

Call your people by your indigenous name! Not a concocted or manufacted name. Or weren't your people known by any name before the advent of the colonialist?

You sef take time reason am na...does "Middle belt" make any sense to you?..Makes me want to throw up.

Lies!

I am a top fan of Gov. Obiano as together with Ex Lagos state Governor, Fashola, they top my list of the most competent and pro-active state administrator ever. But Obiano goofed on this one, and that is if this press release is authentic. As a result, no one really knows what would happen on D Day, but Obiano would definitely not have an easy day.

sean1000x:
You have spoken well but I tell you the gospel truth...Yoruba can never be united against the North/Hausa-Fulani when over half of them are Muslims. Yoruba Muslims cannot claim to be true Muslims and be fighting Hausa-Fulani; impossible even Saudi Arabia will call them to order. The fact is most Yoruba christians know what's happening, wish there was a way out. If you look at all Yoruba critics of Buhari, they are all Christians. Why are there no known Yoruba figures of Muslim extraction criticizing Buhari? That's the problem there. If there was a war between Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani, don't expect Yoruba Muslims to fight Hausa-Fulani for the survival of Yoruba. They will not because Brothers in Islam, supersedes Brothers in Ethnicity or Tribe!

Epic!
