Welcome home professor and kindly tear their useless green card.

I just love him as he actually kept to his words.

To the disgruntled IPOB members calling him names earlier, you can see he stood by his words hence not speaking from both side of mouths as you clearly states it represents a typical behaviour of an afonja person.

This is someone that stood for your current agitation and fought for u during Biafra war. Don't you think you people are being ungrateful?
how did he fight. how many Nigerian soldiers did he kill. Abi na mouth action he carry de fight war. pls tell him to remember to tear his green card immediately he gets to Nigerian Airport then I will believe he is a man of his word.

If a statement from a statesman is good, we quote him, irrespective of his region. I'm not that intellectually blind not to know when a statement makes sense , instead of giving it "ethnic" coloration .
I totally agree with you. Abia state Government is a fraud, be it past and present. It is the only state Government that don't give a Bleep about workers salaries. irrespective of tribe and religion every worker deserves his wages. it is only God that will deliver that state from the evil men that's holding that state to ransom.

Tinubu will take over South East politics come 2019 at this rate, to fill the vacuum of a political leader for the region.

Rochas & Obiano watch out.
How will he do that. Do you think South East is a Region easily influenced. As you can see South East can read the movement of Tinubu and his Apc political foes. Tinubu knows Apc is dead come 2019. And he is preparing to be influential with the production of another political party. Every Nigerian knows the conning nature of South West Region. There was never a fight between Buhari and tinubu. Everything was all planned from the beginning. A. Fayose was planted politically to make it look as if there was someone from that region that is man enough to speak to Mr. President. Tinubu wants the south west region to monopolies this country.

I am not against any girl child from partaken in her fathers properties but it must be done with precautions. A girl child should only benefit from the properties if she is not yet married. A girl child can only partake in the properties if her mother only gave birth to girls. Ever since Nigerian courts gave this judgements there are many scenarios were a girl child is been oppressed by her husbands to sell her fathers properties even without the knowledge of the boy child. Later on the husband flees and dumps the girl child. There are igbo laws even the Nigerian Constitution can not touch and this is one of them. For those of you who think the girl child is not respected in igbo land I pity you, harm her and see if her Umu Nna will let you go scout free.

It's not a factory reset.
PhonesRe: Allo Vs. Whatsapp: Which Is Better For You? by giftedben(op): 4:38am On Oct 08, 2016
Conclusion
It’s still in the early days, and there’s no reason why Allo can’t be refined into an all-purpose messaging app to suit all of our needs. The added features will probably give it an edge in the future, but there’s no reason to replace WhatsApp for now.

The Google Assistant and Smart Reply features are obviously what Google is banking on to draw us over, but it’s hard to say whether it’ll be more than just a fad (especially when you consider the bad press and middling reviews it received during launch).

There’s a reason why WhatsApp is so popular. Everyone has it, and it can be trusted to get the job done, especially considering the ability to make calls via the app. Allo does have a chance to supplant it in the future as it keeps adding features, but there’s a chance it could just feel more bloated in comparison to the current number one.

Personally, I’ll probably keep using the Google Assistant for now, but if I need to send a message I’ll be opening WhatsApp instead.
PhonesRe: Allo Vs. Whatsapp: Which Is Better For You? by giftedben(op): 4:36am On Oct 08, 2016
Why Use Allo?
Allo is going to have to work hard to win us over from WhatsApp, but it is possible if they provide a ridiculously good service. So, is it worth it?

The Smart Reply feature is supposedly a big draw, as it learns from you to provide an enhanced predictive messaging service. It won’t be producing paragraphs, but it’s a good way to speed up communication with a few taps. (It also has a lot of scope in the future as it improves.)

The Google Assistant is an integrated add-on that should also make a few users make the jump across. It means you have to allow access to your search history and location, but it’s not that different than something like Facebook or Twitter that ask for fairly similar permissions.

It’s really easy to get used to it, and when used with Smart Reply, it can lead to helpful suggestions that should get better with more use. It does mean that you’ll be giving Google access to your messages, so it depends on your personal stance regarding privacy. (Some people prefer to keep their private messages private.)

You can also alter the size of text for emphasis, and that can’t be done on WhatsApp. However, you won’t be able to make phone calls from the app, which is a deal-breaker for many users that have come to expect it as standard.

PhonesAllo Vs. Whatsapp: Which Is Better For You? by giftedben(op): 4:34am On Oct 08, 2016
Can Allo snatch the crown from WhatsApp? The new messaging app has been making the news for all of the wrong reasons, but is it a worthy challenger to the most popular app on the market? Aside from the privacy issues that made headlines worldwide, which app is actually better in terms of overall user experience?
If you’re not sure which to use, here’s a guide that will take you through the positives found with each one so you can decide for yourself!

Why Use WhatsApp?
WhatsApp is a familiar friend for many of us, and it’s actually older than you might expect. It was originally released in 2010, and it has evolved into the most popular messaging application in use at the moment.

One of the best things about WhatsApp is that it works perfectly, allowing for phone calls over the Internet that are relatively decent depending on your Internet connection. It has read receipts and everything else you would expect from the biggest in the business.

The sheer length of time it has been out for means it’s a refined experience that most of us know and trust. It’s fully encrypted, allowing users to send messages to one another safe in the knowledge that it’s a relatively secure method of communication.

I send messages to people on WhatsApp every day, and it’s my primary go-to when I need to get ahold of somebody (or even take a good guess at when they fell asleep the night before).

So, is there any point in moving over to Allo? Let’s take a look at what makes it unique.

7. Google Allo
A smart messaging app that helps you say more and do more. Express yourself better with stickers, doodles, and HUGE emojis & text. Allo also brings you the Google Assistant, preview edition. Smart Reply lets you keep the conversation moving with a single tap by suggesting text and emoji responses based on your personality. Shout, or whisper it, to get your point across. Turn any photo into a work of art. Get creative with the photos you send by doodling on them or adding text. Draw a smiley face, turn your friends into memes, and mix in some color. Say it all with the perfect sticker.
Meet your Google Assistant. Allo brings you the Google Assistant, preview edition. Get help from your Google Assistant without leaving the conversation. Say it privately in Incognito mode.

6. Google Gesture Search
This is like your portal to everything inside your Android phone. Once Google Gesture Search is installed, it will index your Android phone to create a list of everything inside it (you can restrict the access, though). After being indexed, you can search for anything in your phone by simply drawing its name in the Google Gesture Search interface. It can search bookmarks, contacts, phone settings, apps and more. The Gesture Search widget makes it a snap to start searching for your phone content. However, you will have to get used to it to take full advantage of it and also let the app learn from your patterns to improve.

Google Fit is a simple fitness app that fulfills all the fitness tracking needs and offers information in a very easy-to-grasp interface. It will let you track your activities like walk, run and cycle, and lets you create customized goals to reach. It will also provide coaching and tips to reach your goals. The information it can provide includes your speed, elevation, pace, route, steps, calories burned and complete picture of your weight and activity over a specific time period.

The app gives you amazing personalization options with hundreds of accessories and styles to choose from. You have full control over your Android’s body and size (tap and drag the parts). You can also animate your Android character with really cool animations and then share it over social media channels or in the Androidify Gallery.

3. Google Handwriting Input
This provides an additional way to type on your phone. It lets you write on the screen and the drawn text will be automatically converted into digital text and entered in the text field. This is definitely not the fastest way to type as compared to other available methods, but it is a really cool way. I also found some scenarios where such input style could be a better option. For example, you can quickly draw characters and emoji to enter instead of searching for them through different keyboard pages; it’s perfect for people crazy about emojis. Additionally, some languages are hard to type, and you are better off writing it out (it supports multiple languages).
