ppogba:
You would have been better off not commenting.

Asking if this is one of the reasons the president was elected? Please, let us know why the president was elected.

That funding university education and allowing students have access is the least of our problems? Kai! To assume that the is presumably coming from an educated person is heart shattering.

The argument some of you bring forward all in a bid to discredit the government is more often stupid than illogical.

Na WA o!

Please read your comment again and look yourself in a mirror. Probably, someone else has taken away your original.
Only you know where you left your brain. I refuse to celebrate mediocrity with you. The entire world is laughing at Nigeria over some of the most basic things that are lacking in your country but you want to ejaculate over NELFUND...... there's basically nothing to celebrate in Nigeria. Every single citizen should be angry and demand for answers but NO....you defend all sorts of meaningless rubbish while the world has since moved on to greater things.

Nigeria is the butt of jokes everywhere in the world today....change that or try to change that.
EducationRe: Alex Ekwueme Federal University, Ebonyi Confirms Receipt Of NELFUND Funds by Franking: 8:15am On Feb 09
Is this an achievement? Is this one of the reasons Tinumbu is president? This is the least of the problems facing Nigerians.......power supply, security, infrastructure, proper funding of key sectors like health and education with clear results, serious fight against corruption, etc those are my expectations. He mustn't perform a magic but there must be clear signs of improvement.

These guys don't really care. Tinumbu preferred to attend the wedding ceremony of Matawalle's children.

Their priorities are different but of course they have to pretend.

CultureRe: Igbo Speaking Communities In Kogi State by Franking: 8:38pm On Feb 07
oglalasioux:
Very educative post. Thanks, OP.

I'm particularly interested in the diversity of dialects in all languages. In Ebonyi State, for instance, there are more Igbo dialects than in all the Igbo speaking states.

I have come to the conclusion (speculative) that dialects suggest that other tribes joined the original tribes back in time and developed the dialects based on their original mother tongues.

The Ngbo people of Ebonyi State, in my opinion, are originally Idomas. Their dialect of the Igbo language is a pure intonation of the Idoma language. This is also true of the Nsukka people of Enugu state who speak Igbo with Igala intonation.

Most people don't know that the English language and German are 90% identical. Languages and dialects are pointers that the world is shaped by evolution.
Languages in contact influence each other. The level of influence is determined by factors such as demography.

In Delta state, Obiaruku and Abraka share boundaries, Obiaruku is Ukwuani while Abraka is Urhobo,however, due to their proximity and the resultant interaction most origins of the two towns speak both languages as L1 and L2 depending on your origin.

More studies are needed to unravel the origins of those Igbo communities there as everything in the open space presently appear speculative.

the problem is that Africans we don't see any other systems as good as this useless USA criminal system

They threatened every nation and stole their resources to feed their own citizens and get rich yet we keep supporting their nonsense

Gaddaffi never use any European systems of government yet Libya was like Europe but this same evil USA that never want others to grow killed gaddaffi. With the nonsense tariff of Iran for 50 years Iran is still better than Nigeria

Oga tarrif bring ur tariff to Nigeria we will not die
How can you say Iran is better than Nigeria?

More than ten countries in Africa are better than Nigeria. This country is an embarrassment to nationhood. How dare you show such unbridled disrespect to Iran?!

fergie001:
He has been very abysmal before June last year.
His closeness to the President maybe is resulting into something now but not before June last year. Again, he is not liked on the streets of Owerri.... Even if he builds skyscrapers, the man or woman on the streets of Owerri do not like Uzodinma. Well, they who are voters there know better.

Nobody knows what happened from last year and Otti is a fantastic Governor btw. leave chochocho, I wasn't his biggest fan pre-2023 but I can say for free he is doing well today. But they can deliver more for sure....
Times have changed. I live in Owerri. Uzodimma is indeed doing fairly well and people's perception of him is changing besides the electoral shackles that naturally come with the APC.

Is this woman related to Akpabio? They both have the uncanny habit of spewing trash each time they open their mouth.

Is this not the same Remi Tinumbu that used to insult his colleagues at the Senate?

The same woman who abused Igbos during the last election campaign?

Anyway, power is transient.....one day another person will take over.

As per respect abroad, she clearly doesn't know then they are laughing at her.

Ask Tinumbu, Malami, Rochas Okorocha, Yahaya Bello, Emefiele, Akpabio, Oshiomole, Orji Uzor Kalu, Ganduje, El Rufa, Wike and all politicians who have held political offices in Nigeria.

After being governor for eight years and collecting very mouth watering packages monthly they are still at the Senate collecting fat allowances and constituency project money, living large with their family while you want other people to use their bare hand to fend for themselves.

If a benevolent spirit cracks your kernel you won't understand what others are passing through.

Nigerians have a terrible mindset and orientation...........divide the country so everybody will choose his own path.
