Ehhh.. so Jackie Chan has clocked 70yrs.
Good old days of Drunken Master, Dragon Fist, The Forbidden Kingdom, The Medallion and many others.

Jackie Chan the living legend who constantly sustained injuries on movie sets.. he ruined film trick for most folks. Happy birthday to one of the finest martial artists and entertainer of our time.

Someone should please remind Mr. Obi that whatsoever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.. this is just like mocking the people living in the area up North.
You are doing something others may want to copy and be replicating all over the place.. you're not in their minds to know that they'd construct something better than yours.

Donaldoni:
Nonsense!

Northern masses voted Tinubu!!

Exactly.. the Northern masses that desire positive change voted for the right man to do the job.
I see revolution coming soon to the North.. this crop of Northern elders will get the shock of their lives soon.

Of course they'll regret as things are beginning to take shape.. State police is coming on board soon and herders attacks will soon become a thing of the past. Oh I almost forgot, a Niger Deltan in person of H. E Wike as FCT Minister is a bundle of sadness for them. No more cash out from FCT coffers.

This will keep on coming up. But the questions are:

Are the Igbo the only ones that lost money during the war, what about Rivers and Midwest even some Hausa?

How much did the average Igbo that collected 20 pounds bring when leaving their towns and villages?

How much was standard six salary? 10 pounds, school cert? 14 pounds.

House rent in proper Lagos for one room 5 pounds, Surulere 2 pounds ten, Mushin one pound or ten shillings outside.

Yet, they talk today as if 20 pounds was 20 naira.

Awo's distractors called it a bribe to Igbo to vote for him.

Look, no matter what you do for Igbo, they will call you names.

God bless you for this.. the £20 Awolowo paid each one of them was even a jamboree that other tribes didn't benefit from.

I look in awe when I see how the revisionists try hard to paint Awolowo in bad light.. as if £20 then is #20 in present day.. This was after they exchanged the currency we had as legal tender to biafra pounds (mere paper without value). Calling them ingrates is an understatement.

iamtoofan:
These matter again ! i was surprised when kanayo.O.kanayo in afamefuna movie made reference to the £20 insinuating Nigeria govt short changed them, and £20 was what they had to build there entire life upon,

Most of us were not there but we can ask rhetorical questions to unveil the truth

It is a known Fact, Biafran currency was printed, on what bases was the currency given out ??
when Emiefele printed new notes, Nigerians were ask to deposit there Old note in there respective banks. isn't ?

The most logical thing Biafran bank at the time could have done is ask igbos to deposit there Old naira notes in xchange for new Biafran notes equivalent.

My guess is most igbos withdrew there money from Nigeria banks and took it to xchange for Biafran notes .. after the War no one will accept the Biafran notes from them, dem enter One chance !

what Next they resulted to sentiments and play the victim card, it worked ! they got free £20 they never appreciated lawason land and Alaba int'l were given

During the biafran war, i am sure Non-igbos died and some Nigerians suffer loses as well what did those ones Get ??
Ojukwu despite commiting treason, came back to Nigeria and got all his gratuity, was even allowed a befitting burial .. ki le tun fé


IGBO Amaka anywhere you no see igbo gurlz .. run nothing dey tha place

In all fairness, Nigeria owed Igbos nothing during and after the civil war because most if not all of them exchanged the currency at the time to biafran pounds (a currency that wasn't recognized anywhere in the world and had no value)...
My guess is that some Igbos took all the currency notes their people exchanged and stashed them in bank accounts abroad to be yeilding interests for them to pick up later on. History has it that the Igbos looted the Central Bank vault in Benin and took away all the monies saved there by other ethnic groups in Nigeria. The same Igbos blew up the Niger bridge that Nigerian government is spending billions to fix now.

They never asked Ojukwu and his lieutenants questions about the whereabouts of their finances and the fate of their offsprings after the war.. the hunger to fight and kill other Nigerians was too intoxicating for them that they left their feeding in the hands of the enemies they were fighting. You bought arms and ammunitions but didn't plan for food, then you turned around to blame Awolowo for not feeding you during the war.

They'll do things without thinking of the outcome and then turn around to blame others. Those in Port Harcourt took over all the Igbo properties in their city which they termed abandoned properties and spoils of war.

Attimes I imagine.. what if Pa Awolowo wasn't the Finance Minister back then?. Would a Northerner still nursing the pains of Ahmadu Bello's brutal murder in the hands of Nzeogwu grant Igbos a dime not to talk of who0ping £20..

Yorubas are the only ones that returned Igbo properties (plus rent collected in some cases) back to them in South West after the civil war, yet these people keep displaying bitterness towards our people and are always after Yoruba downfall in Nigeria. It's the Hausa-Fulani they prefer to play second fiddle to for reasons best known to them.
Person wey you dey play second fiddle to no go ever deem you worthy for presidency.

Obi should face Anambra first before going for charity works up North.. some of the richest Nigerians are from the Northern part of the country, let nobody fo0l you that they don't have wealthy people there.
This one would have been another GEJ that was busy building almajiri schools all over North that have all closed down while his own Bayelsa State and South South region in general lack basic amenities and infrastructure.

I don't think all these so called foreign airlines can go and misbehave in Niger republic or Burkina Faso the way they are doing in Nigeria.

Minister Keyamo should wake up and slam multi-billion dollas fine on all of them,the ones that can't pay should pack and leave, not as if they are useful like that.

So if Air peace didn't join the international route, the foreign rascals called airlines would have kept on extorting millions from Nigerians using dollar rate as excuse.

All so called projects Rochas built in Imo have collapsed.. the current Governor Uzodinma has more reputation than him in Imo State. The Conference Centre Rochas built in Owerri close to Freedom square collapsed because of substandard materials used, it's now they are rebuilding the place.
I don't want to believe Obi approved that borehole yet.. It's too local and a stain on his person.

SupremeSpecimen:
You have no idea the joy you just brought to my heart.

Thank God more lessons are incoming.


I have done 3 giveaways here since Tinubu entered.
70% no be Igbo. The names are still on my SendWave history if you think it's cap. I don't mind providing a screenshot.


The lessons never finish. Abeg continue 👏🏾👍🏾

You go wait tire for the igbos to answer how painful the lessons are


The amazing thing is that someone so hateful like yourself would dare call on God in times of need. Smh

God is indeed very merciful.

Yeah right Mr. Saint.. God is indeed merciful.

I guess the money you're sharing is by your own grace and power.. Better learn humility. It pays alot.

I wish PBAT can re-introduce the War Against Indiscipline (WAI) inititiave of the Buhari-Idiagbon administration, this time it should be headed by a Military General to go after those increasing prices of commodities illegally, thereby inflicting pain on other members of the society.
Our people can be so lawless and wicked if not properly checkmated. We need orderliness, fair pricing and transparency back in our society.

If Obi getting over 95% of total votes cast in the South East in the last presidential election isn't the height of ethnic bigotry to you, then you need your brain examined.. don't worry, other regions are waiting to teach you lots a lesson in 2027.
Una dey always feel say una get sense pass and others are born fo0lish.

Ayra Star is way better than that other one.. you sef compare the two na. The difference is clear.

That's his own model of 'New Nigeria'.. 16th century looking projects.

FFK issa bad bad boy.

He is a mum.u man.. he left his senses in the gutter and was dancing to 'Edo no be Lagos' songs by his present tormentors.. karma is real.

Which Allah's intervention is this desperado asking them to seek to end needless bloodshed bayi?. this 'gbaju e' man won't rest.

When a man is rich, lots of women will flock round him and he can get as many as he wants laid.. check most of the male celebrities and top musicians we have now, they all have baby mamas in different parts of the world.

It takes discipline to be wealthy as a man and not "enjoy" life to fullest.

They should change that guy's name to fraud and his mob to 'fraudsters'..
Prof. Wole Soyinka really described him well as 'gbaju e' man.

I think it's mostly North American countries like US and Canada that witnessed it . It was business as usual in Nigeria.

Eminem dey wear am well.. likes of DMX, 2Pac, 50Cent too made it the 'nigga' craze

When agencies like NAFDAC that are meant to checkmate these beverage companies producing cancer causing drinks are taking bribes, how will they care?..
I think I read one time that those people (especiallly the foreigners) manufacturing the cokes and whatnot that we drink in Nigeria do not taste them, not to talk of having them in their homes for consumption.

Corruption in every facet of our lives is a very big problem.

Paternity fraud should be a criminal offence.. I don't know why people are laughing over this despicable act.

If another man is responsible for your pregnancy, fvcking take the burden to him, not allowing innocent men suffer, carrying out daddy duties on a child that isn't theirs.

Free2Fly:
Chaii, men have grown weaker these days unfortunately.
That woman shouldn't spend the next day in your house, but look at the kind of questions you're asking.
So, if some of these little boys and girls in this forum now ask you to forgive and keep her, you'll agree with them??
Nawaoo

I think it's the child they have together that is making to poster seek advice.. truly the cheating wife can elope with her lover carrying their son with her.

The poster should try to remain calm and process his thoughts well.. the wife losing him is her loss, he'll get a higher degree, marry a better person and move on with life. Nedu Wazobia is a good example.

@OP Run a DNA test on your son quetly to know if he is truly yours.. only then will you be able to plan your next move well.

In the meantine, place tracker on your unfaithful wife or get a private investigator to follow her, so you'll get to know the guy(s) she is cheating on you with.

Why do I have this feeling the girl didn't love OP from the onset.. looks like all these marriage for money and comfort kinda thing.

Of course, there is.. the pastors using the name of God to deceive people have the deepest and hottest part of hell fire reserved for them. Their souls will burn till eternity.

blackboy:
If true, that was injustice

There were allegations that so many soldiers deserted the Army, some fled outside the country over injustice and their superiors allowing Fulanis free hand to operate and wreck havoc in some parts of the country.
We are glad sanity is gradually being restored.

That era of people calling patriotic soldiers to release killer Fulanis is long gone.. wish the Army authorities could re-instate him but age factor would be a barrier now.

This is why politics is very important and everyone should pay attention to it.. a wrong person in power can destroy the fortunes of an entire country.

Na Hausa man..
Hausas are more business minded while Fulanis love power and politics.

funshint:
This one na fool.... that's how he owes his staffs working in his hotels. Imaginee paying workers in the middle of the next month for salariea ment for the current month.

It's even the way and manner in which he is talking that is nauseating. as if it's NURTW meeting he is addressing.
No sense of finesse, nothing.

They should have given this power minister portfolio to someone that is smart and intelligent, those cunning discos will keep dribbling their way around the mum.u man to extort Nigerians.
