Very sad indeed! It is our fault as Nigerians, cos we only focus on Presidential, forgetting that the governors, senators, representatives, assembly members, and councillors are also important players in governance, and are critical to national development and progress...

When we realize that is when the real change will come to stay in Nigeria...

He should buy a Nigerian team and sponsor it... That will trigger his fellow millionaires to do the same, since copy-catism is the order of the day in Nigeria... This will revolutionize the Nigerian Football League...

Oga Dangote, charity begins at home... Show them how successfully you can run a team in Nigeria, and use that to sell your qualification for a piece of the action, like Dandy Dandy of Mr. B and friends...

This show of shame has further confirmed that this illicit drug trade is common to a particular region in Nigeria. A whole Eze indigbo. A big shame.

Would you also say that success in academics is also common to that particular region in Nigeria??

The bad eggs that give Nigeria a bad name... Very sad... Should have been in Indonesia, so that he will be executed...

Na waaooo... Reading posts of many people on this our Nairaland, you would think that Igbo people are only known for 419 and drug pushing, but see as them full for this list of successful academicians...

Nigeria is our country, so we must learn to live with and love one another, no matter our tribe, religion or social class... Every tribe has their good and bad eggs, but at the end of the day, we are all Nigerians... We cannot progress without one another...

Nigeria we hail thee, Nigerians I hail thee!!!

ABUJA – Submission of names for ministerial slots in the incoming government has begun in earnest, Vanguard learnt on Monday.

The process, it was learnt, followed a directive by the president-elect, General Mohammadu Buhari to the governors on the platform of All Progressives Congress, APC to forward the names of candidates.
Three names from each states are to be submitted.
Already, a governor in the south east last week told the stakeholders in the zone to immediately comply.
But Buhari also stated two conditions which he advised the governors to adhere to in submission of the ministerial the appointment.

One of the conditions was that the candidates must be technically competent and of proven integrity. The second reason is that the persons must also show loyalty to the party.

By this, a source said that Buhari indirectly laid emphasis on the need to field the names of the founding members of the party and not defectors from other political parties.

The President-Elect, it was gathered also told the governors that he however reserved the right to chose from among the three names that are likely to be submitted from each governor.

Vanguard also gathered that Buhari may not likely run a bloated cabinet where the status quo is 42 Ministers.

A source who craved anonymity told Vanguard that Gen Buhari may also eliminate the Ministers of State position as he had said he would reduce the cost of governance.
Details later.

Unfortunately for him, the Constitution requires him to appoint ministers representing each state... So the least he can have is 36... But, instead of having senior and junior ministers, he can assign, for example, the foreign ministers to different continents (North & South America, Africa & Middle East, Europe, Asia & Oceania, etc)...

@The age of 73? I weep for my dear country Nigeria. Where do we youths stand? Why won't youths pedddle drugs when they'v been relegated to the background? Government appointments and positions no longer based on competence or merit but on compensation and satisfaction of interests!

Not right to peddle drugs, but some are pushed to do things like that just because of the situation...

This has been going on for years... Obviously, someone is not doing their job, but we are still paying their salaries...

Btw, how many MDAs are given targets, and then assessed based on their accomplishment at the end of every quarter or year??

Let me educate you small... Your head get small oil... No be all those dull flat head wey I dey meet always.

The violent against the Igbos up north before the civil war didn't start because Igbos were peacefully living there...

It all started when Aguyi Ironsi and his fellow greedy Igbo men took over power killing many of the northern leaders like Tafawa Balewa and Ahmadu Bello...The Igbos up north in their usual lousy wreckless manner took to the street dancing and jubilating all night to the consternation of their Hausa host...it didn't take long before a counter coup was staged that took the lives of many Igbo leaders in the army including Ironsi and his host Fajuyi... A Yoruba man that prefer to die with Ironsi...

The Hausas didn't forget or forgive the Igbos for celebrating the killings of their leaders in their home land hence used the opportunity to unleash a kind of terror never before experienced in the history of the country on any Igbo man they can lay their hands on.

Thousands of body bags of Igbos arrived the east in quick succession, this led to serious agitation that gave birth to the stupid dream of a Biafra state led by a coward called ojokwu.

Did Igbos learn anything from the civil war? I don't think so... The Igbos have instead shown many ethnic sentiment in every thing they more than any other tribes in Nigeria.. Reasons Hausas and Yorubas don't like them.

1. They are still keen about the Biafra project. Living in two countries at once is the peak of confusion afecting the the Igbo nation. Many see them as group of unfaithful citizen working against the prosperity of the Nigerian nation to actualize their dream.

2. Wherever they do business they usually wants to dorminate their host. They want minister of FCT in Abuja because they claim to have 70%business in the FCT. They claim lagos was no mans land because the Yorubas showed them love...

3. They have strong penchant for rewarding failure (supporting Stella Oduah, and GEJ)

Part of the problem in Nigeria is that we write our history books ourselves, meaning that we have 190million versions of Nigeria's history. Please try and read one of the many books written by unbiased people who saw events unfolding first-hand before and during the war. I dont blame you, rather I blame the education system in Nigeria that should educate us on the accurate stories of our past.

In the meantime, desist to assign actions of a few to a whole tribe, because the same can be done to your own tribe...

According to reality on ground. But, if you have a contrary opinion, say it, so that we can have a constructive discussion.

He has a right to his opinion, so just allow him to talk about his expectations. Not enough reason for you to include his "people in alaba or onitsha"...

Daniel058:
Why on earth would this be seen among igbo race??


I have listen severally to igbo songs.. Which Whenever they to talk about igbo people, they will only mention ANAMBRA, IMO and ENUGU... Am



The worst part is the Gospel singers are also doing the same.... You will be listening to igbo gospel music , they will be praying to God ""Gozierem ndi onitsha, Gozierem ndi IMO, ENUGU na ANAMBRA state nine" "

WHY are they disregarding us ===EBONYI and ABIA


HAVENT WE CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF IGBO RACE


cc:lalasticla

Ebonyi is a deadend, so noone goes there if they are not going there. Ebonyi has potentials such as Nkalagu Cement, and Abakiliki Rice which can attract enough IGR to the state... All they need is development in infrastructure, and a Governor that wants to serve the people, and develop the state... Also, building a bridge across Ndibe beach to Cross River will also increase the number of cars moving through Ebonyi, which also assist development...

The people that deserve national awards.

When the FG, SG, LGA, and organizations start rewarding its citizens for exemplary behavior like this, the citizens will start competing for such awards by doing good deeds regularly.

See as Buhari leg neat

But why GEJ sandal carry head go up like canoe?

Stop hating people... They both look good...

This looks like a hotel.

Anyway, I still hope they will cut down the cost of running the government in Nigeria...

The true Nigerian!!!

#ATTENTION SEEKER

Because you accept friend request no mean say you go give person your attention... No be by force o... If Buhari accept your friend request, must he give you attention

Anyway, next time she should just continue ignoring him (silence is the best answer for a ****), or say nice things to him... Exchanging negative words will always bring you down to the other person's level...

Nigeria’s Minister of State for Foreign Affairs II, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, is hopeful that citizens affected by the xenophobic attacks in South Africa will be compensated.
Since the renewed attacks started last week, several Nigerians have lost their businesses and other belongings to fire set by locals on buildings where their businesses were housed.
Senator Obanikoro in an interview with Channels TV, said that Nigerian High Commissioner, Martin Cobham and other delegations were taking stock of damages done to Nigerians to ensure that adequate compensation would be given to them.

“We have situations where some of our people lost their shops in this attack.

“We are taking stock of the damages done to them and we are going to be engaging the South African Government,” senator Obanikoro said.

He stated that the South African government had been exploring different avenues to end the attacks that have claimed several lives in KwaZulu-Natal province.

“One of the major stakeholders who incited the South African community has called for a meeting this morning where some representatives of the affected countries would be addressed.

“Some traditional rulers will be there to see how they can douse the situation and ensure the safety of Nigerians and other nationals in South Africa.
“This is a very shameful situation and it has attracted a lot of international outcry.

“I think the leaders have seen the need to ensure that the xenophobic attacks do not escalate.
“The attitude is now more promising and within the next few days we should be able to put this behind us.

“We are working on how best we can get a lasting solution to the problem,” the Nigerian Minister said.

How? With which money? From the allocation for which ministry? Who will do the valuing? How much for the consultants? Will you also compensate those displaced by BH, flood, erosion, etc.

I feel bad for those that have lost something in SA, but let us not make promises like this that we dont know how to implement. Protecting them, giving them refuge in SA, and then transporting them safely to Nigeria is enough.

Joe Biden, the United States vice president on Tuesday phoned PresidentGoodluck Jonathan to commend him for his leadership in ensuring the peaceful and orderly conduct of the 2015 general election.

According to a statement by the information office, public affairs section of the US embassy, Biden noted that “Jonathan’s actions to accept the results and congratulate President-elect Buhari, as well as his steps to date to ensure a successful transition, have strengthened Nigeria’s democracy and set a strong example for Africa and the world”.

Indeed he is. He made mistakes, but he ended his administration putting Nigeria and Nigerians first before his ambition. I wish him well.

Watch as tribal war unfold for an educational issue.

Of course. Nigerians now take sides on issues based on tribe. We are busy complaining about South Africa, yet we are almost getting to their level seeing the way we attack other tribes verbally on various issues.

Tribalistic killings go start soon in Nigeria if care is not taken, and the government does not start a programme of oneness in Nigeria...

Congrats. Word of advice dont worship anybody. Politicians will come and go, but our laws will always stay...

I like his spirit. He is ok. Nothing will happen to him.

Very sad. All caused by unemployment, and lack of intelligence.
