sinkhole:
Yuguda got that position by crooked means. People voted for him on the platform of CPC (Im not very sure!) but he later defected to PDP when he was already in governmemt. People in Bauchi have never be een in love with PDP.

Sorry to say, but Yuguda was voted on the platform of ANPP

SPDAZZY:
k

Were's urs?

If Jega had announced GEJ winner, by now it would have been Biafra, Oduduwa and Nigeria(Arewa Empire), its not because we northerners will not accept any tribe, its because we can't spent 4 more years under GEJ who rules for 6 years.

Now u seemed to know how annoying Igbos are sometimes, by spreading in other's lands like plague. But then you can also be the cure, so do the needful pls.

finniblinks:
thw question should be;do ur people ever think of buying properties in Igbo land?if u come to Owerri,u will see that even alhajis that do burea de change there find it difficult to rent a house not to talk of buying properties.u will see alhajis sleeping in their shops.they only properties they have here is their Radio,mat and kettle

Its because of how u r showing discrimination to our people. Also a question shouldn't be answered by another question, u haven't answer me yet

Op pls answer my question,
Hausa-Fulanis, Yorubas and Igbos are all around the country, here in the North, Igbos are allowed to trade and do their business, acquire lands even in GRA without us showing discrimination, but in Igbo land, are u guys allowing our Hausa-Fulani people to live like we? Be honest when answering.

denzmark:
I think the nairaland share button is useless i just dont get it, you are right like and dislike buttons would suit a forum like this

I also don't know the use of the share button, but it never caught my thinking till aftr u said it.

Not far from the truth.

Just commenting because it feels sad when no one is commenting on your post.

Congrats!!!

I'll never eat this birds, because no matter how the scientist stressed, I won't believe they are harmless.

People are sometimes dumb, even an uneducated person should be reasonable enough to know this is dangerous, I wonder who is: the owner; the Architect; and the Engineer.

Karleb:
Because this thread does not make sense, at least to me. Imagine if I and many other Nlander who doesn't agree to your school of thought decided not to like nor share but dislike your posts on this thread that's assuming there was a dislike button, tell me sincerely how would you feel?

I'll feel sad and then try to find out why you dislike it, by doing that, next time, I won't make a silly post that people will dislike so easily, we might have different thoughts, but I respect yours also.
