Says a fulani man

Deluded reprobate.
Anyone who is not Igbo is either Fulani or Afonja.

koondog:
Afonja, we are not interested in Yoruba blood Edo people or Ilebunos that resemble Yorubas. We are only interested in Igbo blood Edo people, the Igodomigodo people (Esan, Afamai, Fugar, Ogbona, e.t.c) that resemble and behave like Igbo people. They are our blood and will go with us to Biafra!

Esan people. Is there any difference from Igbos? No

Esan people behave like you?
Idiot! Stop being patronizing.
You have no link with us.

"You are dot in a circle, you have no where to go"

We,the Edos are too different from the Ibos for them to count us as part of them.
We can NEVER be part of them in life and in death.
We don't even reason like them.

Any stupid drunken Ipob dares to enter Edo state will die a thousand death.

igbowoman:
I am sick of hearing this man's name.
Nairaland please help me for I am a loyal poster.
Stop mentioning the name of this fulani goat

Who cares who you are!

Investigative:
While exhibiting your madness don’t drag niger delta into it
We know your sponsors
Festus keyamo and laurreta onochie
In as much as you don’t want biafra you can’t stop us that want it
Let referendum decide

In your small deluded mind you think every Niger deltan will join you?

Naturally a typical Niger deltan is not eceby close to Ibos due to their unreliable nature.
I am from Niger delta Edo to be precise Auchi and we will never support such stupidness.

ARE YOU A BIAFRAN?:

Those who arrested and sentenced Isaac Adaka Boro to death for declaring Niger Delta Republic were neither Hausa-Fulanis nor Yorubas but two supposed brothers of his and Biafrans named Odumegwu Ojukwu and Aguiyi Ironsi who were still on the side of Gambaris and still trying to please them as at then. For declaring Niger-Delta Republic Ironsi, the then military head of state, ordered Ojukwu to get Isaac Boro arrested for treason.

Ojukwu, in an attempt to please Gambaris, fought Isaac Boro for 12 days within which he used federal might of “one-Nigeria” to kill 150 soldiers loyal to Isaac Boro, caught Isaac Boro, stripped him naked and sent him over to Lagos where Ironsi charged him to court and within just 2 months got him convicted, at the Supreme Court, of treasonable felony of trying to break away from Azikiwe’s one Nigeria, got him sentenced to death by hanging. While Ironsi​ and Ojukwu did all that to Isaac Boro​, they left untouched their own Igbo brother soldiers who planned a coup with which they killed Innocent Hausas, Yorubas, Niger Deltans, Middle belters leaving Igbo politicians unharmed despite they, like Zik and Okpara, were part and parcel of the corrupt Balewa government.

However, before Ojukwu and Ironsi could execute their sentence on Isaac Boro God intervened and the counter coup happened. Ironsi was overthrown and killed. Gowon took over declared Isaac Boro innocent and released him. But just fifteen months later Ojukwu too declared Biafra Republic due to the way Igbos were being killed in the North. In declaring Biafra, rather than first apologise to Isaac Boro for what he earlier did to him and then ask for his cooperation in fighting to realize the Biafra dream, Ojukwu did nothing like that but without consulting Boro at all went as far as arrogantly including in his Biafra map the very Niger Delta areas which Isaac Boro earlier tried to pull out of Nigeria and which he (Ojukwu) nearly killed him for.

This angered Isaac Boro and Ken Saro Wiwa who both pledged support for Gowon in order to teach Ojukwu a bitter lesson for his arrogance and dishonesty. That was why Isaac Boro and Saro Wiwa fought on the side of Gowon during the war. Naturally Isaac Boro couldn’t have come out of prison to join the Ojukwu who jailed him and fight against the Gowon who released him. It would have been absurd. No rational human being does that.

This is the truth of what happened and which Igbos hate to hear but prefer to blame everyone else as if they themselves were 100℅ innocent.

Igbos must learn to say the truth because if the Biafra/Niger Delta Republic they now seek is founded on lies and deliberate falsehood, like Nigeria, it will not stand but will soon become a failed state like Nigeria. We can’t leave Nigeria for another Nigeria.

But we however know that Igbos allergy to truth is incurable, therefore Niger-Delta states will never be part of Biafra.

It's either your guys are murderers or enablers if murder.

It's even sick to think that people supplying you a good source of protein(,cattle) be killed and your and fans in support of this and the sane heartless ravening wolves will start blaming our leaders.


All these noise some of you are making here insulting president Buhari only reveals how small minded you guys are.

hisgrace090:
Regulate like going after genocidal tendencies no matter the angle it comes from.

Nice one!

I have not commented on thus for days now.

Is, I quote:" as for those MISBEHAVING we will deal with them in the language they understand " anything close to genocidal?

The way some of you talk despite being literate shows that even compound ignoramuses have hope of being reasonable.

Two days ago, a very good egbon wrote here in a Facebook post that the Igbos have been mindlessly marginalised in Nigeria. After reading the post, I asked him to explain how the Igbos are marginalised. I am well aware we have many who binge on elite conspiracies which are just mere grand design to pollute the waters for personal advantage. With an open mind, I asked my good egbon to educate me on how the Igbos have been marginalised because I really want to know. Let me say I am still waiting to be well schooled on how badly Nigeria has treated Igbos.

For decades, many people, including the media have perpetuated wrong narratives in this country because of the way falsehoods have been mainstreamed. There is no part of Nigerian history from 1958 when we had the first all Nigerian cabinet headed by a Nigerian elected Prime Minister, preparatory to independence in 1960, that supports the false narrative of marginalisation of Igbos.

For those who may not know, the first indigenous Federal Permanent Secretary even before independence was an Igbo man, Mr. Francis Nwokedi. Mr. Nwokedi and Dr. S.O Wey, who later in 1961 became the first Secretary to the Government of the Federation, were the first two indigenous Federal Permanent Secretaries in the colonial government. The two men were the doyen of Nigerian civil service. Mr. Nwokedi was promoted as Permanent Secretary about two weeks ahead of Dr. Wey.

To make Aguiyi Ironsi the General Officer Commanding of Nigerian Army, Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa broke rank with his Northern People Congress colleagues and Sir Ahmadu Bello. NPC and Ahmadu Bello, Premier of Northern Region wanted a Northerner as the GOC. The last British General Officer Commanding of Nigerian Army, Major-General Christopher Welby-Everard in his recommendation to the Prime Minister raised a number of issues against the then Brigadier Aguiyi Ironsi who at the time was the most Senior Nigerian Army Officer and concluded Brigadier Ironsi was unfit to lead the Army of a brand new country.

For fairness and to preserve the tradition of seniority in the Army, Balewa ignored General Welby-Everard’s recommendation. He appointed Ironsi as the first indigenous General Officer Commanding of Nigerian Army. A stubborn fact of history is that the Igbos dominated the top echelon of the Army and Federal Civil/Public Service for many years from 1958. Till date, Abia, Anambra and Imo State have largest number of indigenes in Federal Civil Service.

If we all agree our country has historical animus we must, therefore, be honest to acknowledge them and confront them. If it is about trading blame of who did or caused what in Nigeria, no tribe or group will smell like roses. In confronting our demons, we must also reject this persecution mentality many Igbos have carried for far too long. It is distorted version of history that is fueling anger in Igboland since the civil war broke. However we choose to dice it, Nigeria has been good to all tribes. Each tribe can only complain of not having enough but no one can honestly complain of having the short end of the stick. Like other countries, our union is not perfect. It remains a work in progress.

Let's go back to our history and let history guide us. There is no strong argument to support the marginalisation of Igbos in Nigeria beyond what exists in the imagination of those who constantly mine the Biafra franchise to amass private wealth from brainwashed people and politicians who use same for political bargain. I can conveniently say that Igbos have had the best of Nigeria more than any other tribe. Blackmailing the country with victim mentality is not a strategy. Today, many Southern politicians and so-called activists built their public credentials on constant agitation for restructuring of Nigeria. If indeed there is anything wrong with the current political structure of the country, the blame should be more on Igbos.

Who promulgated the Decree 34 that abolished 1963 Federal Constitution and unitarised the Federal structure? It was Major-General Aguiyi Ironsi as Military Head of State. With scant regard to other tribes, Igbos dominated the security agencies and the Federal civil service in the first Republic. Professor Ben Nwabueze who is now the chief priest of restructuring drafted the unification decree as Legal Counsel to General Ironsi. Igbos who literally ran the Federal Government then executed the unitary arrangement for domination and ethnic advantage. Who plotted first coup that decimated South West and Northern political establishment?

The fallout of that misadventure led to the civil war in 1967. The mainly Igbo officers who masterminded the coup didn't kill any political leader from their tribe. Some Igbo leaders talk about the Civil War as if Nigeria started the war against them. Colonel Emeka Ojukwu started the war not Major-General Yakubu Gowon. Gowon had a duty to defend the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Nigeria.

Even with all the noise about all that is supposedly wrong with Nigeria, who are the biggest beneficiaries of Nigeria's diversity today? It is still igbos. Every part of this country welcomes them. They prosper more across the country outside their ancestral homeland. Igbos are probably the biggest real estate owners among all Nigerian tribes. In fact records show they own more than 60% of houses, Plazas, hotels and housing estates in Abuja.

They play big in Kano, Kaduna, Lagos, and Port Harcourt - every part of Nigeria. I need someone to tell me the number of Hausa, Fulani, Yoruba, Ijaw, Kanuri, Tiv man or woman etc that currently have lands, houses or any business that can employ 50 people in any part of South Eastern Nigeria the same way Igbos do in South West, South South and in the North. Do they sell land to non-Igbos in South East same way they freely buy land and own properties in other parts of Nigeria?

Under President Jonathan, the government they seem to have invested heavy emotions more than Jonathan's own Ijaw tribe, Igbos got key federal appointments through Senator Pius Anyim as Secretary to the Government of the Federation. Did other tribes bitterly complain the way Igbos now do over appointments? In any case, which statutory appointments have they been denied by current government despite rejecting President Muhammadu Buhari and his party in 4 elections?

Let’s get real here. Igbos really want to get all top appointments in a government they rejected and have shown unimaginable hostility despite the government offering them the best deal in Nigeria in terms of real development no administration offered them since 1960. It is on record Buhari, in two presidential contests, made top Igbo politicians his running mate. Let’s face it. Which government in Nigeria has taken on the quantum of Federal government-funded infrastructural projects that are going on in the South East than this current FG since 1960? If we analyse the Federal Budget from 2016 when President Buhari presented his first budget, the current FG has possibly spent more money developing SE in 6 years than it has done in Buhari's own North West if we consider FG's spend on Infrastructure per region.

It will appear Igbo elites prefer appointments that only benefit individuals and their hangers-on more than real development that benefits majority of citizens of that region. They covet appointment of an Igbo person as Chief of Army Staff more than Second Niger Bridge, Enugu-Port Harcourt Express, Awka-Enugu Express, Owerri-Port Harcourt Express, Port Harcourt-Aba and other dead Federal highways that are being reconstructed across the region.


For all the special intervention supports by Federal Government to all States of the Federation, I am not aware President Buhari denied South Eastern States what is due to them because Igbos didn't vote for him. Question: how did all the appointments held by Igbos before the Buhari administration including Chief of Army Staff, Comptroller General of Immigration, Deputy Senate President, Deputy Speaker of House of Representatives, Inspector General of Police, Minister of Aviation, Director-General of Pension Commission, Executive Chairman of National Electricity Regulatory Commission, Minister of Power etc improve the lives of Igbo people. Stella Oduah and Osita Chidoka as Ministers of Aviation couldn't even fix Enugu Airport in 5 years or did Dr. Sam Amadi, Professor Bath Nnaji and Professor Chinedu Nebo who superintended over the power sector for 6 years supply more electricity to Onitsha, Aba and Nnewi?

Having Igbo sons leading the power sector for 6years could not even resolve the legal logjam between Emeka Offor’s, Enugu Distribution Company and Geometric Power owned by another Igbo man to supply regular electricity to Aba. Whereas a Federal government being led by a man they rejected in every election since 2003 has done, in 6 years, what the Igbo adopted political party could not do for them in 16 years. It was Buhari that gave Ariaria Market, the biggest market in the region uninterrupted electricity supply.

The main point here is the fact that Igbos cannot continue to claim they are the only good people or tribe in Nigeria while others are the evil people holding them down. Certainly, hate and insulting other tribes can't be a strategy for engagement in addressing any grievances if at all there are genuine ones. Even though the Nigerian constitution does not allow for referendum, let the Federal Government allow it to see if majority of Igbo people will vote to leave Nigeria. I am sure majority wants to remain citizens of Nigeria because they know Nigeria serves them better.

If the Nigerian government won’t allow a referendum, can the South East governors agree and fund an informal referendum to even give us a scientific basis to know if the Igbos want to live as citizens of Biafra, after all, Lagos State, in 2003 or so, conducted its own census independent of the Federal Government.

The Igbo elites must summon courage to counter the IPOB and Nnamdi Kanu's hate mongering. Igbo elites have tolerated Kanu too much without considering their own hard work, sweat and investments in Nigeria. Whatever our country is today is what we all made of it. If we now need to press the reset button it should be done in a manner we all can listen to ourselves. We must not yield the space to the mad man and his specialists in IPOB.

SmartPolician:
This IGP shouldn't behave like the previous senseless IGP who concluded that the IPOB carried out an attack without doing a proper investigation. There should be a proper investigation into this senseless murder. RIP to the man.

For those pinning this murder on the IPOB without a proper investigation, just know that the Igbos are not cowards. Every Igbo man who still decides to live in the north despite all pleas to return home, does so at their own risk.

Just hear yourself.
Every death that occur through shooting is Fulani herders but when it happens in the east we shuos not blame Ipob or ESN?

I won't blame anyone sha ,but my mind is telling those guys can not be exempted.

Northernblood3:
This is clear political assassination sponsored by DSS, UGM don't shoot at a perceived enemy neatly like this. They destroy and riddicule the car and it's occupants with bullets.

Not that I condemn DSS sha but, both them and their fellow terrorists in government should steer clear innocent citizens when showcasing their madness. Innocent citizens are our major concern

Stop talkin rubbish.

Your Ipob people are not left out of his murder they've been the one murdering and killing people because one idiot Cownu is instigating them.

See,if care is not taken,and if good ibos keep silent and allow their evil ones to spread hate and all that they will all regret it.
I tell you.
They will all regret it.

The terrorist head slammers will never disappoint when it comes to stupidity. So they mean Christians in that region has no say

When you don't read you evd up.making fooloshy comments particularly egged on by ignorant zombies.

Everything as to be about you if not it's terroristic.

They claim tolerance buy they are the must intolerant people .
HYPOCRITES!

igwebest23:
This is too much for me. I have had enough. I got married to my wife last year October 2020. I did both traditional wedding and white wedding, spent a million plus. I work with ministry of health.

My wife has been insisting that I disclose my salary to her from day 1 but I never, I just told her that am earning 100+. Before I met my wife, she already learn Fashion designing. Then while was rushing around, preparing for wedding, she was pestering me to open shop for her. I specifically told her that d money I have now is Solly for wedding and traditional rite, which cost me fortune.

Then after much pressure, her people contributed money and paid for d shop (Remember I have paid her bride price then). I have swallowed red pill. How can I open shop for a girl I have not finished marrying. Then when she opened d shop, I equally supporting her with other things like buying protector and chairs. Every day she is going to shop, I drop pocket of 1k. Some times she asks me money to buy tailor materials which I give.

Now within a space of 7 months my wife now has 14 apprentices. She collected like 30k from them. Then all the money she made in her shop, she put all in her account, she doesn't contribute anything at home. Infact decided not to apply for ATM card. Some time, I may go to. ATM to get money and d tell me no network, if I come to my wife to ask her for ordinary 1k, she will say she doesn't have it. I never asked her to help in our home finances before, and I don't really care about her money.

But now found out through her Facebook chat that she sent her male school friends 7k. She hid it from me, she said d guy needed d money to treat her father in d hospital. I was shock. Cos my wife always complained she does not have money. Now she is complaining that I don't support her in her shop. That she can do whatever she wants with her money.

This morning, she was raising her voice to the hearing our flat neighbors, that am a useless husband, I feel insulted. Am embarrased. That I don't support her. She said her shop rent has expired that I should give her d money but she have enough money in her account to pay it. While is asking me. Am d one that pays for house rent, I buy food stuff, I give her transport every day.

I have had enough. I will call her mum to come over and carry her daughter. I can never beat her. The last night I shouted at her she fainted not to talk of beating.

Its either this story is fake or if it's true then you are a true definition of ozuor!


You missed it right from.the onset.

That woman from what I can read does not really love you.

And she has just showed it.
It was all pretence all along.
May God not test with wives like these.

This post was culled from a brother from his Facebook and his interaction with incoming COAS.

Please Read carefully...

Man: You are the student imaam ?

Brother: Yes sir, Assalamu alaykum sir.

Man : Wa alaykumus salaam, i was passing by and i saw the mosque and felt i should make naafil in this mosque... Please is there any ongoing project i can make a little contribution before going ?

Man: (smiled).... and turned to the madrasah children (university muslim staff children) who were around numbering to about 20... He then asked : where is your teacher, two brothers presented themselves and he gave both 5000 each and each student 500 naira... then turned to the student imaam and said follow me to the car.

Brother: followed in anticipation...

Man: ok my imaam takes this for recharge card (15,000)... please dont forget to send the account details to send the money for the boy to pay his fees, also this your board is old and bad... how much is it?

Man : (picks call) and replied with, please my imaam stop thanking me, please stop... my regards please! then cuts the call.

END OF LONG STORY!

The Active Brother in the conversation is me and the Man in the conversation i later discovered to be A Brigadier General in the nigerian Army (courtesy True caller who searched his numbere and revealed his identity).

I swear by Allaah, this is strange in our times, so see people who Allaah has shown mercy of wealth, extending such high level of mercy to Allaah's creatures.

Funnily, i cant remember the face of this man, because our first and only meeting was not upto 15mins and being an elderly man i couldnt gaze at his face much while speaking with him.

This kind of persons still give us hope that we are not entirely ruined in this ummah.

This whole scenero happened exactly a year ago and i can not stop relating the story over and over again.

Indeed I Met a Hero!

My Dua is always with him... May Allaah bless him in this world and the Hereafter.

TOUCH LIVES TODAY!

The brigadier is Gen Yahaya Farouk.


May Allaah ease His affairs and aid him in cause. Aamiyn

But man can keep a female friends?

Married woman?
See,stop this feminists approach to issues.
It makes no sense.
The male is not like the female.

obembet:
That's the fact... Most of u guys have 2-6 girls from different purpose. And u will be looking for saint

I don't know who you are,but trying to bring in this kind of irritating false equivalence is just too illogical.
Why should a married woman keep a male friend?
For what reason?
Even I will not be too comfortable if my wife is too close to a male colleague.

You girls should stop acting as if you were the first women in this world.
Better women came before you and they knew their limits ,but not this stupid emasculation some guys now put themselves into.

Nacoss25:
Good morning everyone. I am a young man newly married to a 22 yr old lady. our marriage is just 2 months old.

Before I met my wife in 2019, she has this male best friend who they have been best friends even before I met her though my wife is a social and jovial person always cheerful, she easily makes friends wherever she finds herself that's her nature and kind of personality.

Right now her friendship with that her male friend is what am becoming uncomfortable with right now because of the so much attention she is lavishing on him. I have complained to her that I am not comfortable with her closeness with the guy but she is seeing it that am trying to cut her off from her friends.

One interesting part of the whole thing is, since we got married the guy has been trying to distance himself from her a bit knowing too well that she is now married but my wife is even the one doing all she could to keep the friendship going the way it has been going. 2 days ago I and my wife were together she called the guy complaining bitterly how he has been distancing himself from her.

My people what do you think I should do to cut down that connection or will the friendship grow week by the day on it's own? My wife is refusing to understand that in marriage there are things u will have to let go.

Let me tell you my mind eh,both you and your wife are not functioning well as a unit.
This is problem I have with this sick generation.especially the girls, they always claim they know and at the end ruining their marriages.

I have made it a personal habit not to chit chat with opposite sex too except I am interested in you, if not shift.

This is the kind stupid emasculation most men now put themselves into in the name of being modern.

I do not know the kind of men we are breeding today.

Not these over sabi are better than our mothers who never had what you call besties.

I blame men who marry such lady and it's a sickness many of you won't cure easily if you don't take a firm stand not to take rubbish.

EM123:
it is about an ordinary nigerian who was decieved , but if not for bad government that made the system difficult for an ordinary nigeria , he won't have embacked on the journey that made is friend to decieve him . The "useless ipob" according to you is trying to educate you and i to make us wakeup and know what to do.

I'd rather remain ignorant than be educated by those good-for-nothing lots.

EM123:
this is what we all are suffering in this country , and somebody will come out and start insulting ipob that is trying to educate or open our eyes. We are not suppose to be suffering in this country after graduation as an oil producing country . Brother social media na just the more you look the less you see. Some go borrow cloth snap picture post for facebook , if you no dey careful you go commite crime . Bro put your self together and hustle , GOD go pick your call one day , we all are in this together.

Is the topic about those useless IPOB?

Or about an ordinary Nigerian who wqs decieved?

Cpossibility:
What a friend did to me last week.

Just like in my case, so many graduates in the country are today, traumatized, depressed or even suicidal. Nothing is more depressing than seeing oneself jobless after several years of graduation. More annoying is when there's no finance to even start a business no matter how brilliant the business idea could be. If I have capital or even a collateral to use and get some money somewhere, I would rest completely from job hunting.

My ordeal.
Few months ago, I stumbled on a friend on Facebook whom we were school mates back in secondary school. His parents resided outside the state which he normally came back on school resumption and would go back during holidays.

On meeting him on Facebook, taking a look at his pictures, he's obviously doing well and claimed he's working with an international NGO. I told him my pains which is unemployment. Immediately, he was happy and telling me not to worry again that with his connections here and there, I'll get a job. His promise was to fix me either in the NGO, an insurance company, factory work or any other place of which he has links and connections.

We talked extensively and negotiated my movement and arrived I should come over last week. The plans was to stay in his 2 bedroom apartment and until 3-4 months when I can rent my own place. So I moved from Rivers state to Lagos Monday last week with just 16k on me. En route Lagos, we were keeping in touch so to know how closer I am and until I got to Lagos (God is Good Motors park) around 8pm. I called him that I have arrived the park and he said he was coming to pick me.

Long story short, that was the last time his number went. Initially, I thought it was network, or may be temporary low battery. I kept dialling the number through out the night but it never went again. Of course I had no choice than to sleep in the park. Woke up the next morning hoping his number would go but still same. I had no body else in Lagos nor knowing any where as that was my first time in Lagos. So I was just roaming around the park the whole day like a lost sheep, hungry, frustrating and pains but still hoping for his call but none came. When I tried reaching via Facebook and realized I was blocked, that was when it dawned on me that I have to start going back immediately. Already, transport fare from PH to Lagos finished about N10,500. So I was left with about 4k on me. At that point in the evening, I knew my best bet as I said earlier was to find my way back immediately but I didn't even have enough cash for my return. I had no option than to start telling people about my predicament and appealed for help to raise fund to return home the next morning. I was mocked and laughed at while some were asking to buy my phone at a very ridiculous amount. But then at that point, I could have sold it at the ridiculous amount but the phone was the only medium of communication with people especially my mum who was already worried over the journey right from the onset. I kept approaching people to help me and until one man graciously completed the money for me and I paid for my return.

On reaching home, I did nothing than thanking God that at least my case wasn't like that of late Iniobong Umoren. At least I came back home alive...which is the most important thing. But what I don't understand is why the guy chose to be that wicked to me forgetting this world is a very small place. I mean if there was never a job, why did he have to put me through that? Anyways, I have since moved on. Not even swearing/cursing him but leave everything for God. Such is life!

Fellow nairalanders, that is the dairy of a Nigerian job seeker. This leave me with the question, "will Nigeria ever be good for ordinary Nigerian?"

And the idiot maybe one of those cursing our leaders everyday of neglect yet they can be this wicked.
We know many self righteous nairalanders here who make it a daily routine to curse and swear at Buhari and every leader are themselves wloves in sheep clothing.

I do not take many of them serious.

Imagine you are leaving in your own home, surrounded by enemies who do not speak the same language with you, people who do not share the same faith with you and they hated you so much and they vow that you and your family do not have the right to exist.

During 1967 all the Arab countries combine themself and wage war against Israel and tried to wipe them off.

They proclaim and shanted that they will not recognize your right to live as a human. Some even vow that they will wipe you off the earth. How with you feel? How with you react?

Can both of you answer me?

Was Israel even in existed before 1948?

Do you know how they came to that land?.
Do you?!

I think I am tied of explaining this over and over again.
If Israel want to claim land they should go to Europe-Germany to be specific.

After reading through I can categorically say the English language dished out by Afegbua is worth more than a Billion naira.

This English narrative can cause traffic hold up and can even bring down a government.

Fear Edo people for English.

Na we get Patrick Obahiagbon.
Na we get Sam loco Efe.
Na we get Kassim Afegbua.
Na we get Justus Esiri.
Na we get Charles Onogie
If you con listen to Barrister Nuruden Asunogie nkor.
You go just faint.

When Fulanis come and chase away Igbo people from their land I hope you will say the same thing?
HYPOCRITES!

Seniorwriter:
Just wow.
I cringe to imagine that a former number two citizen's place didn't have electricity supply ....well I'm not surprised because we've never had leaders all we have are LOOTERS!


....We need young visionary leaders!
Our past & present political leaders are charlatans.


Exactly!!!
@SeniorWriter

Don't even go there.
Even with what I am seeing you will be far worse than those you curse and insult.

How are we even sure if you don't even do small small cheating here and there and also give kickbacks.
Or,you think people don't know you?

Keep lying to yourself.

As old as America and England are,they don't elect small boys to lead their countries.

SLAP44:
Egzactly! The concern is about the terrorist that killed many unarmed civilians in Onitsha.

I pray you achieve your Biafra sooner rather than later and let's see the magic you couldn't perform even as a region come alive.
I know Ibos ate not generally bad,but the bad and insensitive scum of the earth like you are making the good ones bad.

SLAP44:
Maybe Pantami has his NIN information

Must fools like you talk?!

I don't know what kind of soullessness is this?!.

PoloG:

Sirkingsnado:

Why north elite won't say anything

See this evill one too...

The evil you wish others will soon envelop you.

Millimann:
Put on your glasses and look well, and contrary to your claim you will see people from other sections of the country.

They do too, but yours is way way higher.

I can screen shot how your brothers to any BSD news that befall people from other sections and especially Muslims.
You can not deny this.

The same people who complain the most...no wonder ,you hardly hear of anyone from other regions owning or building houses in their place.
Such a evil bunch of irresponsible lot.
Evil and adulterous generation.
