If say Warri is a capital, you can also say Ughelli, Agbor, Sapele, Iselle Uku, Ogwashi Uku and Abraka are capital.

Warri is a over populated town with conflicts and crime here and there.
The Ogiamen controversy comes to mind.

The author of this article is a filthy tribalist, he is part of the school of thought that ignorantly do not conside Anioma 'delta'. I have to say that the so called old delta province should find a name for themselves (I suggest UIIII standing for Urhobo,Ijaw,Itsekiri,Isoko and Izon).
Besides, Aba is not capital of Abia, its no big deal.

Shebi you know that there is a difference between muslim singers and hausa singer?
Present day Northerners had rich culture before Islam.

Eyah, after some people made a big deal out of a first female governor, as if good governace isnt a bigger deal.

Asari is a f00lish greedy man after his pocket. What has Asari don for Ijaw with his billions? how many investment in ijaw land that can employ 100 women(not militants recruits)?

in as much as I am irritated with Asari's hypocrisy, in that he has investments as far as Benin republic, but his hateful barkings reflect the plight of the Niger delta people.

doctokwus:
Do u sometimes listen to yourself?
Besides our different political affiliations and I daresay insights,I do honestly respect your approach to issues,unlike many of your kin on d otherside,but sometimes u disappoint me.
How can an educated person like want to hold a man to his promises when he hasnt even assumed office?It doesnt make any single sense.

he with all optimism made those promises before the election, after he was elected he started singing a new song, he began talking about how infeasible his promises were, we, well meaning Nigerians were thrown into panic mode.

Metrofox:
There's a reason he's there & this is not a company

yes, Nigeria is more than a company and needs people that are even more up to the task.

I appreciate Asari's presence in the polity, he is a neutralizing base to the north's acidic tendencies.

The man was just messing with her head.who wants that kind of hell

if another woman harms your son for cheating how would you feel?
The man was a cheat or not, who cares! He has been murdered in cold blood and deserves justice.

prettyrosiemua:
rip. But I thought I read somewhere that helium gas isn't poisonous that's why its used by divers.

it is not the helium that kills, it is the lack of oxygen.

bebe2:
Helium?

I wud ve thot carbon monoxide poisoning?

Science students pls come and explain

R I P.

I'm still wondering, helium is a relatively expensive gas and unlike carbon monoxide, helium is not a byproduct of any chemical reaction whatsoever.
So where did the helium come from.

superstar1:


See this miserable soul, descendant of wandering Cain suffering from mouth diarrhoea and cerebral palsy.

Demented and tormented fellow, your tribal bigotry will kill you. Copy that.

You're deluded and probably have a history of madness in your family.
You're as unintelligent as you're tribalistic.

Super1Star:
Who bloody cares about you?

Get off my mention, deluded bunch of people.

Wretched black hearted urchin, you are pathetically tribalistic, who is you people?

Super1Star:
Pazienza, we have all been around NL for long and we have dwelt on every single events concerning the bitter experience and the not too glorious actions of our all our founding fathers, we cannot keep arguing back and forth on a yearly basis on.them.

Have learnt a lot from all the political discuss on NL. Some really made me to read in-depth about Nigeria. The contributions of Deridegull now Dede1, katsumoto etc have been eye opening. In all our ethnic jingoism and jibes, we have all.learnt a lot. I now understand the culture and mentality of a typical Igboman, which is totally not.in tandem.with a yorubaman and hausa/fulani.

This generation and the coming ones have a choice of either learning from the mistakes of the past and avoid repeating them OR keep dwelling on them till eternity comes.

All sides made fundamental mistakes and there was a high level of immaturity in most of their actions. None of them was a saint.

Do not bring the achievements issue here. Even your Chinua Achebe alluded to.it that the Yorubas were ahead of everybody. That is a story for another day,all the same.

One thing I will jot stand on NL, is some younger generations spewing rubbish about the events of 1966 based on false heroics and tales by moonlight stories of their fathers and uncles.

Keep your advice to yourself.
It is everybody except you that makes mistakes.

Super1Star:
The Igbos of the new era should also inculcate respect for others and decorum in their new curriculum. Of lessons of life learnt by them.

Respect is reciprocal.

Equalizer:
What happened in 1966 coup was nothing short of revenge cos Gowon, Murtala, Danjuma and other senior officers felt betrayed by the eastern and western region cos the origin plan was for all the Democratic leaders to be wiped out but Azikiwe,Awololo and that mid western man survived the attack and only the north recorded heavy casualties.. Am sure till date, the north are yet to forgive the Igbos for what Kaduna chukwuma Nzengwo did to their great men..

Asaba and the South East are yet to forgive the north in the way they acted during the Nigerian/Biafran war.

..

What was this man's crime exactly?
He was a dictator? What of paul biya and mugabe?

The "incoming incumbent" administration has a lot of work to do in reforming the Army which sadly is full of Uniformed Beasts.

Jonadunce is partly responsible for the sorry state of the Army and I'm glad his sorry A55 got kicked out of Aso Rock.

your buhari brought more indiscipline to the army, it was he and his cohorts that ousted a democratically elected government.

Afterall said and done, Nigeria's reputation is the most gored.

Remember Atiku gave two of the girls who allegedly returned scholarships in his American University of Nigeria, but upon the media coverage, those babes were never interviewed.
This makes me doubt the abduction.

fpeter:
wiping or weeping? their brother or brothers?

Silly girl, Nigerians are being attacked and you are concerned about someone's English.

Babalegba:
Nigeria's problems came about because of the shortcomings and character defect of the inhabitants not because of Lord Lugard. You only need to go to any state in Nigeria to see how strife, tribalism, greed, self centeredness and puny leadership destroys lives and make the community miserable. Stop blaming others for your mistakes. To paraphrase it Nigerians are the problem not a dead white man

Are these problems not there because of our differences?

Shagari exiled the more economically important Ghanaians leaving Chadians and Nigeriens.
Bloody fanatic.

Bweasts ideally shouldn't be viewed as a sexual item.

Who hitler help?

I supported Jonathan not for my love for him but because I dislike the person of Buhari.
