A vehicle proudly displaying the flag of the Nigerian Labour congress ran out of fuel today at M.K.O Abiola way in Ibadan, Oyo state. This is funny and Ironic because the congress is planning to launch a nationwide strike on Wednesday over the recent hike in petrol prices.

Zico5:
So the op could only point to two yoruba among the greatest literary writers in Nigeria. Even picking chinua achebe above wole soyinka, the Nobel prize winner speaks volume of the intention of the op. We yoruba don't boast, we just allow our work to speak. It shall be well.
Nobel prize is just an award every writer mustn't be presented with the award to be recognized as the best take a look at times most influential people in the world , richest people in the world, greats in every field of life how many of them have the award even uncle Shakespeare never got it that is to tell u that the award is limited to time and chance

Politics › Re: EFCC Probing Jonathan, We Will Invite Him To Respond To Our Evidences – Magu by fabre4: 2:05pm On May 16, 2016
DaBullIT:
hhehehehehe


I see a mental patient saying it's not possible

I see others threatening war if it happens


To my satisfaction i saw reasonable people who are able to read between the lines , especially what the EFCC director said " We spend months , not days or Dossiers and evidence against suspects, that's why no one we have arrested has come out clean ""


Jonathan will be invited for questioning, He probably won't be detained or locked up , but it'll be the greatest disgrace and embarrasment for the Yeebos world wide

If Buhari can order the kidnap and return of Umaru Dikko from UK to Nigeria , I am sure Buhari can ask for international help to arrest Jonathan


and that is what will happen ,


IF EFCC or DSS or ICPC or did not arrest Jonathan on Nigerian soil , i want to see where you will protest or who yee yeebows will fight against

hahahahaha best news of the week grin grin grin grin grin
you must be blind or incredibly stupid to see where he mentioned Jonathan but since it is obvious you are not blind the other must be the case

Adaure4ever:
It has been confirmed that PDP will zone its vice president ticket to South East in 2019.
Ladies and Gentlemen, This Is A BIG INSULT to the Igbo Race after our 16years of faithfulness to the Peoples Democratic Party.
will heaven fall if PDP present a South East and North Central Man as President And VP Candidate in 2019?
what is wrong with our Igbo men and leaders of Nowadays,
Azikiwe, M.I Okpara, Akanu Ibiam etc will be turning in their graves over the pathetic state of Political Mumulity that is disturbing Igbo leaders.
My Igbo Men, what have gone wrong? Why are you people so shortsighted in political forcasting and strategy?
Greediness and Love Of Money made us to jump into bed with GEJ, a Man who came from a tribe that WILL NEVER vote or support an Igbo President Candidate,
is GEJ still answering Azikiwe?.. Chai, *my Igbo men are falling my hands** sobs*
Whats the way forward? APGA IS THE WAY FORWARD
let us rebuild Apga and turn it into a full National Party,
let us Bring out a Competent and Sellable Igbo man as APGA Presidential candidate in 2019, rally around him and vote in bloc for him.
Whether He wins or Lose BUT atleast we will make a statement.
Who will liberate Ndigbo from this political wilderness?
Azikiwe where are you?
M.I Okpara where are you?
Alex Ekwueme where are you?
Even Peter Obi that should have mould himself as a strong Igbo Leader messed up the day he decamped to PDP from APGA(that Ojukwu gave him).
Ndigbo, we are a sleeping political giants, the earlier we wake up, the better for us.
ADAURE.
Adaure nice post you've got here but I think the question should be what do Igbo's want we can't keep on pretending we want Presidency when the other half want Biafra that is why we have no political relevance, we have spent 45 years advocating for true federalism and Biafra at the same time to no end these are conflicting interests and they keep on dividing us daily with these interests Igbo's have to come up therefore and decide cause united we stand divided we fall. Apga is and should be a rallying point for Igbo's Northerners are even adopting the party in the north and are winning lg elections so its just a matter of time before its acceptability widens, Now is the time to suffer and sow lets make it worth it.PDP is dead, as long as am concerned without Igbo's and its time to show them our w

Lordave:
Yes it is but my interest is mainly on the progress and development of the South East, and I think yours should be on the South East too.

The presidency will come gradually, nevertheless, so far I haven't seen any South East politician who has done enough and shown much interest in the unity and development of the South East to earn my presidential vote come 2019.

Grassroots progress is what we need most at the moment, any politician who ensures unity and development holistically can have our votes come what election year he or she contests.
I agree with you but I also think it is expedient that we have a minor revolution in south east to wipe out this so called political class that have and are piloting the affairs of south east but have refused to see to the development of the region i for once believe that people like Iwuanyanwu, rochas ,the orjis obi and the rest should be flushed while we silently watch the progress of Obiano. It is not wrong for us to go back the grass root cause it is clear these idiotic south eastern politicians have nothing to offer

The so called 4 refineries in Nigeria should be sold of to different companies if possible, personally I doubt if ever they can work.

They have just been using them as tools to steal money for many many years.

Apart from the massive land and storage tanks the rest is just massive pieces of scrap metals.
Privatization is the only way out so I agree with you just look at the the way power has improved since it was privatised

Sia Kate Isobelle Furler (born 18 December 1975), referred to mononymously as Sia, is an Australian singer and songwriter.She started her career as a singer in the localAdelaide acid jazz band Crisp in the mid-1990s. In 1997, when Crisp disbanded, she released her debut studio album titled OnlySee on Flavoured Records in Australia.

Sia , 40, is one of the biggest musical geniuses
in Hollywood. The brains behind many hits
from Beyonce , Rihanna , and Britney Spears , Sia
is a seasoned pro in the industry. She’s modest,
too, as one thing is very apparent — the
Australian singer/songwriter hates showing her
face, even when she’s nominated for huge
awards like a Grammy.
Here's Why The Singer Chooses To Hide Her Face

The “Elastic Heart” singer wrote an op-ed
for Billboard in October 2013 called “ My Anti-
Fame Manifesto (By Sia Furler) ” where she
addressed why she hides her face from the
spotlight. Yes, it has everything to do with
hating fame.
“If anyone besides famous people knew what it was like to be a famous person, they would never want to be famous,” Sia wrote. “Imagine the stereotypical highly opinionated, completely uninformed mother-in-law character and apply it to every teenager with a computer in the entire world. Then add in all bored people, as well as people whose job it is to report on celebrities. Then, picture that creature, that force,
criticizing you for an hour straight once a day,
every day, day after day.”
Sia readdressed the topic after dropping the music video for “Chandelier”, which stars 12- year-old Maddie Ziegler. “I don’t want to be famous, or recognizable,” she told Chris Connelly on Nightline in June. 2014. “I don’t want to be critiqued about the. way that I look on the internet. I’ve been writing pop songs for pop stars now for a couple of years and I’ve become friends with them andsee what their life is like and that’s notsomething I want.” Sia has been on the music scene since the late 90s, but as she continues to grow more famousand co-write hit songs, she continues to cover up. While promoting “Chandelier” she repeatedly used Dance Moms star Maddie during
performances, along with other celebs, such
as Lena Dunham.Whether she shows her face or not, Sia’s got incredible talent that definitely does not go
unnoticed. But she does show her face sometimes!

everyone is entitled to his own opinion but some opinions matter while others don't. What surprises Me Mr is why you spend so much time castigating and destroying somebody's legacy when you have none as long as literature is concerned not as though your opinion counts.
wole is best at what he does and so is Achebe please let sleeping dogs lie and dont be like those Achebe or wole Soyinka fan that confine literature to Nobel prize

Achebe was jealous of soyinka's achievements in his lifetime but they were friends initially. Soyinka even plead for Biafra during the civil war
therefore instead of we to aspire to be better than them we should play the busybody and begin to compare. Its just like saying messi is better than Ronaldo or vice versa
meanwhile what do you think was the reason for Achebe's jealousy

Having replied you; wole soyinka is evidently better being awarded the nobel prize in the field. He is a god regarding literature but he is an elusive writer who created an isolated niche for himself
With all due respect to Soyinka I think the comparisons are unnecessary because it does not
help them improve instead it could lead to animosity between them
