Kobojunkie: So in essence, you all are saying Abiola didn't do anything to warrant having UNILAG named after him. Cause that is what you are invariably hinting at here, even if you are not bold enough to admit it.

No he was saying that more than 50 years history/brand name UNILAG doesn't deserved to be taken away and given to some one else. Assuming that Abiola is an Alumni of UNILAG, and you were to be asked where he graduated from by a foreigner? What would you say?
Moshood Abiola graduated from Moshood Abiola University -How does that sound to you?

When will you guys get it? This is not about Abiola, but the fact that the brand name UNILAG is bigger and well known worldwide than Abiola himself as a person and Abiola being and intelligent man am sure will agree if he is alive today.
There should be a constitutional law governing an arbitral renaming of public institution after individuals.

Muniru A: Blocking road just because they change d institution's name, what does that has to do with d efficiency or inefficiency of the varsity. Lag stds-fight on something that can be justifiable and nt on sili thgs like this.

Why not list your justifiable brainstorms. Am sure you will be dancing on the street tomorrow is you go home and find the name of your town probably dating a 1000 years had been change by Jonathan because HE THINKS that your town is owned by FG?

Donmeca: Mumu unserious students shud know that schl belongs to d FG and not their parents. If they can't condescend as low as accepting MKO's name on their cents, they shud drop out and enroll in AUN Yola. Atleast that one has a gud name....and gud money too.

So who or what is FG if not you, the students and Nigerians?
Now who is the mumu?
In lands where people reasons from their brain not their anus, a school like UNILAG is called a public institution, not govt institution, notice the difference?
It continued to show and further evidence why Nigerians deserve their crooked rulers!

Otamio: They forgot that they are only tenants there for a period of 4years or more after which they are out. Fools.

Nigerians never stopped to amazed me with their level of reasoning, especially the so called IPOD generation, no wonder they produce the sort of rulers that dance on their heads. The school you went to from you primary-University forms the greatest part of your life, even sometimes plays a great role who you becomes, not just the period you spent their permanent as a student.
When I met important people all over the world, they don't ask me who my father or mother was, the first thing they ask is where you graduated from.

[quote author=A.Gideon]Furthermore, it is not the name of an institution that makes it popular rather the quality of education it gives.[/quote]Tell that to those with Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard degrees that its the same with those of Obasanjo's Bell University degree.

weazley: , this students dull sha o!, what are they now protestin for??

They are protesting because a great injustice had been done to them by a clueless leader and his advisers who woke up yesterday and renamed the name of their future/present IMPORTANT part of lives which many had aspired to get into their CV (UNILAG).

How would you feel if you wake up tomorrow and hear that UN security council had change Nigerian's name into something else without telling you or asking for your opinion, just because they could?

Who will be happy to learn that someone else even your own father had decided to drop your own name dating many years and had given it to someone else?
Would they had drop Murtala Mohammed name from the airport in Lagos and renamed it after Abiola? Just because "Lagos" is not a person doesn't mean that you can drag a well known city of the world which one of its prides is that University that bears its name, throw it away and renamed after somebody.

The moronic thinking of Nigeria rulers and their ruled judging by their comments here had shown why things don't work in that country. It shown why they disgrace and care less the name/image of their country left , right and centre because they don't know the true meaning/value attached to a name.

Most companies of the world will go to the highest court in the world if you play or tamper with their well branded name, even God almighty doesn't joke with his brand name (Jehovah/Jah).
UNILAG is a well known brand name that can worth billions if its for sale as a private company. The whole image of that university lies strictly on that name UNILAG, take it away, it just become like any of the over hyped secondary schools all over Nigerian called state universities. Its no longer in the league of Nsukka, Nairobi, Kampalla, Cairo and Acrra universities-which are know educational institution of higher learning brands of from Africa.
This not about Abiola, if they love him too much, let them name him after their seat of power-Aso Rock, let see how many of them will agree to that. Universities had become a cheap and easy game for them to toy with.

shymmex: The same MKO sponsored the IBB coup - which destroyed Nigeria...

IBB single-handedly destroyed Nigeria - and MKO played a major role in his government...

Without the duo, Nigeria wouldn't be the shytehole it's today...

Yeah, Yoruba people supported him for June12 - and they were angry after the election was annulled, but is the guy really worth this gesture??

What did the guy do for the Yoruba race - other than destroy Awo's legacy??

He's a fraud - and he got rich off Nigeria's back.

You made some good points that required good attention but this is not about Abiola as person in my opinion. The biggest stakeholder of any institution like UNILAG are the students and the school management, I wonder how much they were told about renaming their university before hand?

Most people send their children to a certain school because of the brand name of the institution, my son/daughter both went to Cambridge University and I can tell you you that it cost me a lot to send them there because I wanted them to have the name Cambridge on their CVs because it worth a lot. I am sure that is the intention of many parents that sent their lot to UNILAG
My children possibly, may not have got the kind of Jobs they got after their studies, if they don't have their alumni as Cambridge. So if tomorrow they learned that they are no longer graduates of Cambridge but some John Major University, its not going to be funny and whoever did it will be over-washed with law suits.
And it got nothing to do with Mr Major as a person or his achievements in life or merit. This is the point of the argument, the issue is neither about Abiola nor Yoruba people. That is my opinion.

stebell: Peeps pls dont forget dat de university is a federal university funded by de federal govt. So de govt of de day can decide to change its name whenever it chooses. So pls stop hating GEJ.

So who or what is a federal govt? an unknown ghost?
Or is federal govt not the people as well? Some of you make me laugh

nerodenero: Let us be sincere here.The yorubas had over yrs been bittered at the way OBJ's administration had overlooked or failed to recognise MKO Abiola's contribution to democracy.For me,we might not be too happy with GEJ's administration or that he named UNILAG after him but I think this recognition is long overdue.

Going by the same line of sincerity, the Yorubas as you said had been clamouring for the recognition of Abiola contribution towards Nigerian version of democracy but if am not mistaken too, to be fair to them, it had always been on the line of recognising June 12 as the real democratic day in Nigeria rather than the one that recognised the day the rogue Obasanjo took office and it has been the same line towed by Jonathan and his government till this day.

In my opinion, you cannot hate and treat that phrase "June 12" with disdain, only to then turned around and pretend to like or recognised Abiola. If I said to an American friend here in London that today is June 12 day in Nigeria, he is more likely to ask what happened on June 12 and through my explanation, the person now will more likely to know better about Abiola than to name an established institution after him.

If Jonathan wanted to genuinely recognise Abiola, how much consultation did he have with his close associates in NADECO/AFENIFERE?
I am not saying that he didn't but it will be interesting to know. But my hunch about Nigeria, told me that this is politics of divide and rule, nothing more or just the usual ineptness/emptiness of Nigerian ruling establishment.

Beaf: It is evident that people are so sad at the masterstroke of recognising MKO Abiola, a man whose sacrifice led to the ending of a brutal period in Nigerias history in which barbaric dictators and warlords reigned and terrorised the people.

We may not yet have a perfect system, but MKO's death and the struggle that ensued have brought us one step closer. Each passing day and election, bring us yet closer to our dream. I am proud to have personally taken active part in the MKO struggle even as a mere boy.

Shame on the animals that are attempting to ethnicise the issue. I wonder why these bigots could not recognise MKO themselves.

Please give me a break with your Abiola lecture, you can't love him more than his own kinsmen. This has nothing to do with Abiola as a person but just Nigerian wicked politics of divide and rule. How can any sane person woke up one morning and thought to himself that he is going to change one of the biggest educational brand name in Africa after a politician?

Most of you knew my admiration and love for Emeka Ojukwu (Ikemba) and I will do anything to defend his name, honour and dignity, but if anybody is to go out tomorrow and change the name of Nsukka University after his name, I will kick out the greatest opposition against it. Because Nsukka as an institution is an irreplaceable world recognised brand name for the Biafran nation.

Ife, Nsukka, Accra, Cairo, Nairobi and Lagos universities names in my opinion is untouchable, its a worldwide known brand, how can anybody except a clueless with brainless advisers of a president do such a thing?
Its like renaming Harvard after Reagan, or start calling Oxford/Cambridge Winston Churchill university.

Knowing how evil and calculated Nigerian politicians are, this action is either precipitated by politics of divide and rule because they hope to achieve a scenario where if the Yoruba will say, we hated the idea, they will turn into that Yoruba/ACN hates Abiola and use it to polarize the zone or just Nigerian ineptness that causes then not to recognise the value of anything and Jonathan must surely be badly advised and should reverse this decision. This is not about Abiola.

Amen quota has been reached? .
How can you be a Nigerian and suffers from HBP, when there are so many comic reliefs?

Beaf: ^
Nah, I've just returned to this thread and not modified anything.



Yes, you can never get everyone on board, but you can at least try.
If anyone had tried to get the Midwest on board, there would be a history of meetings claimed at least by one side. But there are none.

Things were handled terribly, bro.

BEAF:
When you see your neighbour or brother's child in grave danger of extermination, our human/humanitarian instinct is to jump in and help, you don't wait for a kolanut and palm wine meeting before you can help. As many as Ibibios, Annang and Efik people died fighting for their freedom along with Igbos in Biafra, how many consultation meetings were held with them before they realise the situation at hand?
Its either you are scared of the future, in the event your brother/neighbour loses, what will become of you in Nigeria? that made you decide to call yourself neutral. How can you be neutral in a civil war of your own country? That is laughable.
How can you be neutral in a war your brothers/neighbours that you had share thousands of years of history together are being killed right, left and centre?
That will be an act of wickedness or the greatest act of cowardice.
Its like the rest of African telling Mandela and the rest of South African people that they are neutral in their fight against minority rule.
If you said that you joined Nigeria because they seem to have more means to win in the end, that is fine and probably I will do the same in your shoes but stop making a fool of yourself and your people in 2012 about being consulted or being neutral in a war being fought around you.

Many of the Igbos who gave Jonathan his fictional 99% of their vote, I wonder how much of consultation you and Jonathan did have with them before hand? Or did they vote or rig for him because they thought their neighbour/brother is in A POWER TOGGLE against Buhari (a northerner) and their instinct was to help?

Laalamed: What would be the fate of ibo in lagos?

Their fate will not be different from their present in Cotonou, Douala, Libraville, London, Madrid, Florida etc.

pinkrex: @The man who wanted to be educated on Buhari's bad luck. Buhari swayed our first democracy in 85. Our PTF funds were unaccounted for. He has a degree in 'Islamic' studies which is not good enough to lead a democratic Govt. His ineptitude during his military rule made Idiagbon the head of state and govt. He has countlessly made violent speeches which were decorated by bloodshed in the past and he's still at it. He appears a sectarian leader from all the elections held in the past(campaign). You want more reasons?

(1) Go and read your books or ask your learned older ones. Buhari did not sway your so-called democrazy in 1985, Babangida, Abacha, Dogonyaro, David Mark, Bako, Vatsa e.t.c did with help from NPN misrule and Abiola's coup funding. When Buhari and Idiagbon refused to play ball with the public coffer, the real owners of the coup kicked them out and many years of dribbling with your intelligence kick starts.

(2) If your PTF is unaccounted for what is your darling Jonathan presidential responsibility? Probe him even with your mago-mago judges.

(3) Who defines what degree is good enough for a democratic rule. Indonesia/Malaysia rulers are no less moslems than Buhari and they have proper democracies compared to your pretence version.

(4) What is a violence speech? Stop rigging election and stealing public fund, is that it? Mandela, Kenyatta, Nkrumah, Lumumba all were once accused of using or making the same violence speech by their detractors and its on record.

(5) If Idiagbon was the head of state and not Buhari, according to your wisdom, then it was Idiagbon that ran an ineptude govt as you can't have it both ways.

(6) He appeared sectarian leader or you wanted him to appear a sectarian leader as a fitted stereotype because his opponent is your fellow southerner? which now makes you a proper sectarian follower.
Be careful when you point a finger, your rest may be pointing at you.

(7) Do we want anymore of your fallacy reasons? Naaaa!!! You haven't got any in the first place, enough!!.

CyberG: I am reading a post here which is confusing and I implore Eziachi to tell me: Are you the same person as Ezeuche?

Its difficult to understand your confusion, I can only help by saying I am Eziachi by my username and I am not Ezeuche by real name or username either.
Does that help?

ifihearam: What's there to elaborate again na?
He has been contesting since 2003 during Ibori's regime and he lost bothe the election and election petition tribunal
He furthered his course by contesting with Uduaghan where he also lost gallantly.
He was offered an opportunity for a re-run after the election was cancelled which he did not only lose that election but also lost at the tribunal.
Does he still have the strength,vigour and financial prowess to win the hearts of deltans?
My dear even deltans have given up on him.

And I am sure you cast your vote on both occasions for Ibori against him?
Knowing where Ibori is residing now, that makes you a great thinker and someone that should be listened to.
Bloody Nigerians are their greatest enemies. They seem to have addiction of loving their greatest enemies and despise the few good ones. The current Ghana president lost legitimately twice or three times before he eventually won but in Nigeria, that is a crime and should be derided, unless the person joins the gravy train, no opposition and all is well.
Thank God almighty I am not one of you.

[quote author=re@lchange]just like i cannot understand how any igbo person with brains will defend Buhari, irrespective of Buhari's mad rush to power which led to violence in the north which claimed many igbo lives and drove many more to the east. buhari refused to apologize and even made new threats for 2015.
i can't understand how some igbo brain works sometimes[/quote]You cannot understand because I am not an average Igbo man with a huge Nigerian mentality, where a white sand from the south is called golden sand by southerners because that is the way its supposed to be irrespective of the truth.
I think first as a human being. Despite all the truth before your eyes, you lot still blame Buhari after Jonathan's version of Saddam Hussain kind of election in those days. Its like blaming MANDELA or Biko for Soweto slaughter and turn a blind eyes against those enjoying and promoting dehumanised rule in South Africa.

PDP/Northern elite assured Jonathan that no heaven will fall even if if they rig where they are not meant to touch AND HE WENT AHEAD with it and those who rig the election for him in places like Katsina are responsible for what happened after the election. You know and I knew that, but only that regional and tribal loyalty had blinded many of you to the truth.
Don't tell me that your support or hate for Jonathan/Buhari isn't based on where they come? My advise for many of you is never paint somebody based on his opponent's opinion especially in Nigeria. Myself and millions of Igbos suffered against such incorrect painting and had continued to do so till this day.

Our humbly leader Ikemba was a victim of Nigeria wicked painting, only for them to change their tune in death. As an Igbo man I don't owe loyalty to any Igbo politician, let alone a totally clueless Ijaw man, who has no idea why he is in power, just because we are both southerners.
If I do that while crying and fought for injustice for the past 50 years, it means I am a hypocrite.

Kindly educate me how Buhari started Nigerian problem?
Some are even quoting El Rufai saying that Buhari is unelectable- which even my grandson will agree with because men of integrity like Buhari is impossibly unelected in your damn country.
Because Nigerians hate the truth but love liars, they hated honesty but in love with deceit. They shout about corruption but can't live without rogues and thieves (Ibori has even a supporters club among his victims)

When I look at the so-called southerns making or painting Buhari what he is not just because it suit a nonentity like Jonathan being president, it makes you smile and evaluate the real make up of human beings.
I can't even understand why any sane person will use his brain and defend Jonathan as a leader, let alone an administrator unless you are a tribal/regional bigot or you are an Abati of this world whose bills are paid monthly by saying nice things about Jonathan.

Update: The cleaning company sent us a registered hand delivered mail before the end of work this evening to apologise and in their own language, they said that they perfectly understood our corporate responsibilities to our clients and hope to do business in the nearest future and we wrote them back wish them well in the course of their future businesses.

Someone in his/her post said that I should have sack the cleaner. Unfortunately we can't sack her because she is not our direct employee. That I knew today because, though a senior partner in the business, I don't run the business day to day.

I don't even decide how much I am personally paid annually, Most staff, like my PA knew some of this basic facts more than I do.
Example, last year I wanted to treat myself to a new car and my PA laughed at me and told me to forget it as I haven't got the cash, unless I will do it through the corporate car lease, which I declined.
But I thought I could afford it at the time without checking.
Some of you younger ones may knew your company more than your bosses.

moderattor: you over did it, accept it.
To be wicked, you dont have to break the rule, just enforce it to the letter when there is a kinder alternative.

Like I said, sacking people from their job is a horrible thing to do but sometime it will save you thousands and other job. I had bee updated that the family of the old guy was called and told what happened and apologised to them. And it was such a relief when they said, they will take no further (but you cannot say never).

Business in the U.K is not a kids business especially in the private healthcare. We can lose our license over this and words does go round too. The patient I understood now, is Scottish just like my wife, a former member of house of lords and he is 78, whose family are paying for the treatment.
Can you imagine if the media gets a wind of it, what the headline will be? Financially it will be the end of my family. Someone was saying if I knew what it takes to be a cleaners, yes I do. I arrived the U.K as a refugee and those days no income supports its today. My parents lost everything after the war. Manners and wickedness is not about what you do for a living.
Nigeria has no culture quality standard, that is I understood now why Ibori made it in Nigeria as governor for 8 good years.

norrisman: What a plonker you are! What the woman did in no way warrants firing her let alone terminating the contract of the cleaning company. The woman asked a valid question as water and human waste are not disposed off in the same manner. Did you expect her to taste the liquid to find out what it is. I am not absolving the woman of blame but you have exhibited the same aggressive and rude Nigerian charateristics shown by the woman.

In any reputable organisation, the woman should have received at most a final written warning and put on retraining instead you abrubtly end a contract thereby punishing at least 5 people for the 'crime' of 1.

I hope you take a long look at yourself while you are sat there in your wheelchair.

Again, you are a complete tosser

I don't know what a tosser means, hopefully I don't qualified to be or not to be. I will expect her to be kind to a seek person who is half asleep and could have even come back later. Whatever that is on the floor is irrelevant, as I don't see her asking her own sick father/husband the same thing, same way. If its urine,its not toxic, neither do you install toxic waste inside a private hospital ward. If she knew whom I am might have acted differently, so its all about manners. Treat people, how you expect to be treated, irrespective of who they are.
I don't go to Nigeria often now, but I see your sentiment among any Nigerian elite class, who will never take responsibility for anything and next election, they vote their tormentors with a higher mandate.

Just woke up to look at some of your posts. As an elderly man, who is a father, grandfather, husband e.t.c I did reflect on the impact of my actions on everyone involved before terminating the contract.
We were fortunate that we had it inserted in the contract that disrespect to our customers will result in tearing the contracts without any advance warning.

Cleaning business is one of those businesses, very easy to start this days in England and make quick loads of money without having to do much to your customers and staff.
One thing I had learned from my father was, never to allow sentiment to over crowd your sense of business decisions or you are finished.
I watched my father while growing up, sacked my mum's own brother once. And my parents did not speak to each other for weeks, until my mum realised that my dad did value his reputable employees more than her lousy brother who does nothing but bosses people about because the company belongs to his in-law. So when he was booted out, it sent a message to everybody in the business, to shape up or you are out.

In this case, I made my mind up when I realised that we are paying this company £25 (pounds sterling) per hour/per cleaner (including VAT) to supply us with six cleaners per week.
And from my understanding, they are just paying their workers just above the minimum wage. And all this while, whenever I am at the hospital, all I do witness or sees are just this people doing nothing but chat among themselves without doing much.

Now I believe directly recruiting and employing four (4) in-house full time cleaners will do far better job and get paid better. With inclusive package of a free healthcare and they can nominated 3 other members of their own families resident in the U.K. Plus a 21 days full paid holiday entitlement like the sui white collar co-workers.

Thank you, I feel better already

In the last one year, my health has taken a big hit and practically on a chair now, hoping it will be temporary. Despite many orthopaedic surgeries, I had to go into knife again last Wednesday to have my root valves fixed and my very much dilleting aorta needs changed. It was a success according to my surgeon, who also is my partner in the practice.
This morning I was doing a brief walk with the physiotherapy as I hold her hand for support on the corridor and that was when I overheard a conversation between the hospital cleaner (a lady) and an inpatient frail on guy who just had a hip replacement as I later learnt.
This what I heard:
Cleaner (With an aggressive booming voice: What was that on the floor?
Patient (Probably half asleep: Am sorry, beg your pardon?
Cleaner: I said what was that on the floor, your urine or water?
Patient (confused, stammering) I don't real know, my pants seems dry, am terribly sorry!
Cleaner: Can you sit over there,I want to move the bed, mind your foot (with chewing gum in her mouth)

I could not believe what I had just witnessed and both myself and the physio lady, who knew who I was, was looking at each other in amazement. I gently knock on the door and went in. I ask the cleaner, if there is any particular substance on the floor that she doesn't clean? To be harassing/embarrassing a frail old man at 7.30 in the morning?
She looked at me in my pyjamas and said, what has it got to do with me busy body? Mind your business (It was then I that I knew she must be a Nigerian with the busybody lingo thing)
The old patient sat there confused but relieved, doesn't know whom I am and neither was the cleaner as she carried on. I went back to my room and then told the physio not to discuss what just happened with anyone and I was straight on the phone with my son and the third partner and told them what happened, that I want that lady fired in the next 10 mins and I was annoyed when they told me that they don't know her as a person and our HR might do because we use agency cleaners, Now losing my cool, I demanded that the cleaning company she belonged to be fired and let them start the process hiring, training our own in-house cleaners, whom you knew who they are and where they live.

Eventually against two young partners who thinks they knew better, I got my way. The cleaning company's contract has now been terminated with immediate effect without any legal bust up. For now the staff had to be temporary cleaners, until we get at least 4 in house cleaners. This business was my brain child, which I had sacrificed a lot in the last ten years and won't have anybody mess it up. Now over to you.

oluoma1: I am repeating dis word again? My people perishes for lack of knowledge. Who say T.B.J, is not a Prophet of ''GOD''. Should pls read these verse; 1corinthians, 12v4 to end. Then you will understand more. And pls don't judge so u'll not be judged.

Tell me which prophet, whose prophesy wasn't recorded as part of the scriptures? The era of prophets and prophesies ended in the 1St century BC at the completion of the Bible and cannonisation of it. If you know your socalled bible, you must have read where apostle Paul warned Christians in CORINTH to stop speaking in tongue,prophesying and miracle works as its no longer required. Everything a true Christian needed is already written down in the bible. Anything outside that remains uninspired.
Am not a prophet, pastor, bishop or carrying any big sounding self assumed Christian titles, just a bloody nobody Christian who rely solely on the Scriptures.

Any Christian faith based on what the eyes can see (a.k a Miracle) is totally false and satanic. Jesus main teaching wasn't based on miracle, in fact he hates those asking for miracles. When he did perform miracles, he mostly does out of pity and many times very discreet and not a form of advertising for Godly acceptance.

The so-called self made prophets,are workers of lawlessness and counterfeit Christians just like the Romans before them that hijacked Christianity after the death of the JESUS original apostles.

If Jesus himself will say that, on that they, some will say lord! lord!did I not use your name to perform powerful works e.t.c, but he will tell them to get lost because they are workers of lawlessness. Who do you think will fulfil that prophesy?

Still the so-called Christians, especially gullible Nigerians flock to this fake Wolf Christians looking for miracle and how they can get instant gratifications of the world.

I can just imagine Apostle Peter and co busing themselves predicting the winner of some ancient Roman gladiatorial wrestling match in the first century. What has football got to do with kingdom of God if I may ask gullible prophets and their zombie followers?
I really would hate to be Jesus and his father sitting their in heaven watching this clowns making a mockery of their names, all in the name of fame and cash.

I honestly like this Aregbesola guy, not just after watching this his frank interview. He is very different and I like people who are not non conventional to a certain stereotype.
He is like a breath of fresh air, very different from the normal/typical deadpan Nigeria politician.
He speaks very frank and shoots from the hip. I love the way he define the true meaning of state in a federation, which the so called idiotic other governors cannot grasp, rather they will represent the president in Abuja in traditional marriage as if they are his footstool instead of equal political partners.

His typical Yoruba English ascent reminds me of my old late friend, prof Ayodele Awojobi.
Definitely, no one can accuse this guy of been boring. LOL

Beaf: Poor thing!

Why the poor thing lamentation? Just typical Nigerian attitude to life. What is so undignifying of being a radio technician? What has the Omisore guy had ever achieved with his white collar job history if I may ask?
Nigerian culture doesn't tolerate austere people like Aregbesola, Buhari etc of this world who doesn't go about looking for ovation, or living high on public purse.
Why did they singled him out to hound of all ACN governors? Was he the only one that won through the tribunal?
Its probably because he is not in tune with them and they can't stand him. Typical Nigerian attitude of CLASS INTOLERANCE. How dare him from poor background rose to rule over them?

BlackPikiN: Oga where you dey since na?
Happy Easter.

Thank you buddy, I had not been very well as a result of a knee surgery I had that wasn't very successful. But am more busy with something very exciting coming your way soon- RADIO BIAFRA right inside London to be broadcasting on the shortwave band inside Biafraland. In london you can get it on 94.3 fm band.Go there and enjoy Biafra highlife for the meantime.

We wanted it to go on air, the day our Ikemba was laid to rest, but unforseen technical issues made it impossible. This is just the begining. if its successful. Biafra TV is coming your way through Eutelsat satellite 50 degrees north and can be access free worldwide. Watch out.

bittyend: Since, you don't know the difference between flooding and erosion - I'm not surprised you grouped non-igbos - who have no love lost for ndigbos as your brothers... Great Ogboru, Mukoro, and Gideon Orkar don't like Igbo people - yet you still called them your brothers... What's your IQ again??

My dear brother, I can beat my chest and tell it frankly as a true son of Igbo-Biafran, that not every Igbo that I call a brother and not every non Igbo that I call my enemy.

dayokanu: Actually most Yorubas would want the SW as a country as it is right now and also want the SS to either stand on their own or go to their ethnic nationality

Its Ibos mainly who seek to ally themselves to SS by force.

havent you notice the trend of bundling them together SS/SE? Have you ever seen anyone write SW/SS before?

Its Ibos who attache by force just like in the days of Biafra

It was people like you that kept spewing the false infomation tht Igbos wants anybody again in a force marriage of a country. You had been reading from the likes of me for how many years now?
Nowget it straight, We will like Igbos thrown into Rivers, Cross River, Delta states etc to join us in a future Biafra and that is, if they so desired.

Annang, Efik, are welcomed if thye so wished, Ijaw or any other is a capital NO. So get your facts right. It was you Yorubas that wants one Nigeria one minute and the next its united states of southern Nigeria, the next breath, you want you newly discovered nephews called the Itshekiri in another mini Nigerian marriage.

MASSOB wants a free Biafra with Ndigbo alone, MEND want the free ND nation for the population it speaks for, and Junaid Mohammed has told us now that if push comes to shove that the North too are ready for Arewa and I ask again, what does the Yorubas want, apart from a brand new marriage with mindless who must have fortotten the nightmare called Nigeria?
Take a stand, no more coded speaking and hiding under SNC.
