Ibadan

‘Ibadan, a running splash of rust and gold’ These were the lines that described Africa’s largest city in J.P Clark’s poem. Ibadan rose to prominence due to its strong capacity to overcome wars.

Kaduna

Kaduna City is the capital of Kaduna state. Kaduna’s name derives from the Hausa word “kada” for crocodile (“Kaduna” being the plural form).

You can get 3.5 acres of farmland of land for rent for as low as 25,000 NGN. The population of Kaduna was at 760,084 as of the 2006 Nigerian census. Rapid urbanisation over the past decade has created an increasingly large population, now estimated to be around 1.3 million.

1 the first goal was ruled offside by the linesman but the referee in her wisdom awarded it a goal to d kano pillars.
2 FCIU were awarded a freekick wen dey score instead of d wise referee to award dem their goal she cancels it and says it's HT already.


with such kind of nonsense officiating how do we encourage private individuals to invest in sports in Nigeria?

all of you mentioning Europe dis Europe that ,do u see such kind of nonsense there.

zicky:
Tell me something is this thesame woman that officiate the Plateau-Heartland game? That woman should be throw away far from anything sports.

na the same woman.
she need to go back to training school

HAH:
So because this is Nigeria we should be abandoning match I felt cheated.

so u expect dem not to react dat way?
after travelling 1000km by road in dis harsh harmattan weather.
that female referee has no place in Nigeria football.

I don't blame CAF for not inviting or using any Nigerian referee in its competitions

HAH:
Legitimate goals are disallowed severally in various league in Europe but is not reason for the Club to abandon the match.

Ifeanyi Ubah FC should be fined N10million and 3 points for abandoning the match.

The referee decisions should be reexamined by the LMC if wrong she should be penalized

For those saying why would a woman be given such a sensitive match they are clearly being gender bias, is the woman not qualified? Why do men officiate in female games too, Saying a woman should not be in the middle of field as referee is very foolish

well did is Nigeria and not Europe .

besides you hardly see dis kind of poor officiating in Europe

ffrreeee:
Hmmmmm The question most Nigeria sports and football lovers are asking is why should an opening game of this caliber filled with tension be allowed to be handled by a female referee.

And what's wrong with a female referee.
Is she incompetent because she is a female?

yes she is incompetent.

she exhibited.similar nonsense between heartland nd plateau united last season.

EVEN THE KANO PILLARS GOAL WAS OFFSIDE AS RULED BY THE LINESMAN BUT SHE WENT AHEAD AWARDED THE GOAL.

for all of u calling for sanction against FCIU,don't forget that the first goal by Kano pillars was offside as ruled by d linesman.

Nigerian journalists have come under fire recently after being labelled lazy.

He shared the pictures on his Facebook page and wrote;

I hate it it when some people think that all Nigerian journalists are lazy and have never been war reporters before.Social media should not give you a license to denigrate your fellow hardworking citizens. There is nothing the global TV networks have done or are doing that we haven't or cannot do.

and get ass-banged for life

PS: india already has 20-30 % of the designs of PAKFA , it already spent 250+ million dollars , tonnes of russian technical documents relating to PAKFA have been translated in india till now . the russians dont seem bothered , why ru

also if say, what u think is true , then what about brahmos , hypersonic cruise missile , nuclear submarine etc etc ,LOLZZZ the russians dont trust the chinese with their technology as much as they trust the indians.

but due to geo-political and economic issues things r kind of different regarding chinese and russian bonhomie compared to russia and india.

do u know CIA has SIGNIT stations in china run together with chinese targeting russian weapons test ranges .

russia garrisons/military complex in far east r geared towards the chinese (something which they will not speak of publicly)

i dont know why but u only seem to see a floating piece of ice in the sea and but forget that it could be just the tip of the iceberg

u should have been on the titanic to understand the gravity of the above statement,
dont worry as a good friend i will not mind coming along with u ,

Delhi Wants to Ascertain Production, Export Right of Russia-India FGFA Project

ASIA & PACIFIC 12:53 04.01.2017 (updated 14:15 04.01.2017) Get short URL 395944 The Indian government has been hanging back from making a firm commitment on the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) project because it first wants to confirm whether the agreement will allow commercial production and exports. © FLICKR/ MATT MORGAN

Russia, India Discuss FGFA Advanced Fighter, Su-30MKI Upgrade New Delhi (Sputnik) — India and Russia are expected to sign the detailed design and development contract of Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) in the next two to three months. This will enable Moscow to retain its position as the prime supplier of Indian Air Force's fighting strength. India has signaled that negotiations on R& are almost final except for some issues related to rights over export to third countries. "Secondary round i.e. R & D round is almost finalized except some issues related to the future of the aircraft. Because, when R& phase will get over and you are not able to produce and sell, what is the point in developing? Whether we will have right to produce because there will be some IPRs over which Russia will have claimed. All these important aspects are being clarified properly," says Manohar Parrikar, India's Defense Minister in New Delhi. Sources told Sputnik that a Russian delegation is arriving in New Delhi in the next few weeks to discuss all these aspects.

The Indian government feels that before embarking on commercial production, every issue needs to be sorted out such as the aircraft's stealth capabilities or the right to export right. Parrikar said two to three months does not hold much importance for the project with a time frame of 10-15 years. Currently, both the countries are not discussing the number of aircraft to be produced under the project. "We are trying to ascertain quantum of stealth, transfer of technology and whether we will be able to manufacture and sell jointly. All these aspects are being discussed because when we invest huge money ($5-6 billion) you are commercially not only producing for ourselves but considering exports as well. Secondly, stealth aspects should also be in conformity. So all these technical aspects are being looked into before going forward," Parrikar said. © AFP 2016/ ALEXANDER KLEIN

India Announces New Fighter Jets to Be Produced Domestically The Russian-Indian FGFA has stealth capabilities and is based on the Russian T-50 prototype jet. The FGFA project came about following the signing of a Russian-Indian cooperation agreement on October 18, 2007. Both the countries signed the primary contract in December 2010. India has spent $242 million on the primary contract. The Indian Air Force has proposed building an indigenous FGFA called the Advanced Medium Combat Stealth Aircraft (AMCSA), but it still remains at the conceptual stage. Sweden's SAAB has offered to help in the development of AMCSA but the Indian establishment is yet to respond. Meanwhile, China exhibited its fifth generation stealth fighter aircraft J-20 in November this year. The J-20 is expected to provide long range, hard-to-detect strike capacity to the PLA Air Force from 2018 onwards.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF IKWERRE 
‎
Chambers Dictionary (William Geddie, ed. 1962) says: “A nation is a body of people marked off by common descent, language, culture, or historical tradition: the people of a tribe.” However, S.O.L. Amadi-Nna (1993) avers that: “A tribe is a group of clans under recognized chiefs and usually claiming common ancestry. Ikwerre can therefore not be a clan but a tribe. The Ikwerres claim a common ancestor. Ikwerre is an independent small tribe.” In the words of K.O. Amadi (1993), “Traditions suggest that Ikwerre is a nickname given to Iwhnuruọhna people…..They have ever since regarded themselves as a distinct group and have happily come a long way in their struggle for self-identity as evidenced by the recognition of their language as one of the Nigerian languages.” Amadi-Nna (1993) added that: “The Ikwerres are a small but distinct tribe. The Ikwerres have distinct linguistic, social and cultural traits and formations that distinguish them from other close neighbouring tribes like the Ijaws and the Ibos. Majority of the Ikwerre settlements have their roots traceable from the old Benin Empire.” Iwhnurọhna people descended from  the ancient Bini Kingdom. The name of the grand ancestor is Akalaka. Their relations in Rivers State are Ekpeye and Ogba people. The reigning Oba of Benin when Akalaka, the ancestor of Ihruọha (later called Iwhnurọhna) fled was Oba Ewuare (Ogwaro). Akalaka, a member of the Benin royal family, fled in the 13th century on allegation of plotting assassination of the Oba. He died in 1462. Iwhnurọhna his third son settled east of the Sombrero River by 1538 AD, as detailed below. Chief N.M.T. Solomon (2004), native of Ikodu Ubie in Ekpeyeland, in his narrative draws heavily from the now authenticated written historical records delivered by various informed sources including “Eketu (Weber) of Ubeta, assumed to have lived for over two hundred (200) years as the oldest man in all Ekpeye, Ogba and Iwhnurọhna (or Ikwerre), at that time (and) was asked to narrate the history and customs of Ekpeye people” as unfolded in his lifetime. Here is what he said, which has been validated by the accounts of the current generation through responses to our questionnaires and direct interviews thereby increasing our level of confidence on the data: Ekpeye, born in Benin, was the first of the three sons of Akalaka. While in Ndoni, he married a second wife to gain the love and favour of the people. The new wife gave birth to a son, which he named Ogba. Akalaka was still in Ndoni when his first wife, the mother of Ekpeye, gave birth to his third son called Ihruoha (Ikwerre). Similar historical fact by J.N. Olise (1971) averred that: “Akalaka, a member of the Benin royal family, fled with his wife from Benin to Ndoni, a community located close to the River Niger, to save the life of his new born baby (Ekpeye) … While at Ndoni, Akalaka took a second wife. … Akalaka had two sons, Ekpeye – born to him by his Benin wife, and Ogba – born to him by his Ndoni wife. According to F.E. Otuwarikpo (1994): “After the death of Akalaka in 1462 AD, his two sons, Ekpeye and Ogba had conflict, which compelled Ogba, the younger son, to move northwards where he founded Ohiakwo (Obigwe) and settled with his family. Ekpeye who remained at Ula-Ubie had seven sons – Ubie, Akoh, Upata, Igbuduya, Ekpe, Awala and Asa. The last three sons – Ekpe, Awala and Asa – crossed to the other side of Sombreiro River (present day Ikwerreland and settled there since 1538 AD.” He added that: “Ekpe migrated to present day Rumuekpe and spread through Elele (Alimini), Ndele, Rumuji and part of Ibaa. Awala migrated to present day Isiokpo …”  Amadi-Nna (1993) also said Akalaka migrated with his half brother called Ochichi from the area of Benin Empire. Ochichi sons were Ele (Omerele, now Elele), Elu (Elumuoha, now Omerelu), Egbe (Egbeda) and Mini (Alimini, Isiokpo). The crucial point here, which is of great importance in tracing the joint origin of the ancestors of the Old Ahoada Division (in the Governor Diete-Spiff administration), is the mention of the number of children that Akalaka had, namely: Ekpeye, Ogba and Ihruọha (Ikwerre). It is noteworthy that the pedigree and name of Ikwerre people, Iwhnurọhna, obviously took its root from this original name – Ihruọha. Chief Solomon therefore establishes a very vital historical link, which has been missing in literature on Ikwerre origin that would assume more significance in the discourses of Ikwerre genealogy in the future – the fact that Akalaka was the direct father of Ihruọha (Ikwerre). Iwhnurọhna, in Ikwere parlance, means the face of the community (town, city or village). Nigerian colonial history records that the name “Ikwerre” was given by the colonial administration when they wanted to acquire the Rebisi waterfront to build the wharf. Using an Ibo interpreter to talk to the illiterate Rebisi (Port Harcourt) chiefs, they asked them: Would you permit us to use the waterfront to build the wharf for ships to berth? And they answered: A KWERULEM, meaning – “We have agreed.” What the white-man was hearing was “Ikwerre,” so he recorded it in the official gazette that the IKWERRE PEOPLE have agreed for the colonial administration to build the wharf. And since it was the official record of government, the name Ikwerre became the name of the Iwhnurohna people in all official documentations till date. Similar cases of Anglicization of native names in the Niger Delta region by the colonial administration are Benin for Bini, Okrika for Wakrike, Degema for Udekema, Abonnema for Obonoma, Brass for Gbara sni, Bonny for Ibani, Pepple for Perekule, Ahoada for Ehuda, etc Even so, “… there were dissenting voices, … who believed that Ikwerre origins lay outside Igbo land, … in the Benin Kingdom of old. It is, therefore, obvious that the interminable debate about Ikwerre origins and migrations including the repudiation of the Igbo tradition is not a phenomenon of the post-civil war period. The controversy, as it were, is not necessarily the product of the present political realities wherein groups which hitherto were seen to have cultural affinities now find themselves in different states or administrative systems.”  — K.O. Amadi (1993) The Ogbakor Ikwerre Convention, a cultural organization of Ikwerre people, in a paper presented to the Human Rights Violation Commission headed by Rtd. Justice Chukwudifu Oputa on 10 October 2001, said: “Ikwerre ethnic nationality is not and has never been a sub-group of any other tribe in Nigeria including Ndi-Igbo. There is no doubt that the advent of the British and later regionalization put Ndi-Igbo at the helm of affairs in Eastern Nigeria. This brought Ndi-Igbo into Ikwerre land. In course of time, the Igbo took advantage of their position in the then Eastern Regional Government to grab land in Ikwerre and occupy political positions such as the mayor of Port Harcourt. In the process, Ikwerre along with other minority groups were marginalized and driven to the background.” Professor Godwin Tasie noted that in 1913 the Rt Rev Herbert Tugwell, the Anglican Bishop on the Niger, undertook an experimentation tour of Ikwerre towns and villages assumed to be Ibo-speaking to test the Union Ibo Bible Nso being introduced in Iboland. “Tugwell discovered from the tests he carried out that although the Ikwerre were often regarded  as Ibo… the Union Ibo Bible translation, surprisingly, was not easily understood by the Ikwere.” This is obviously why Igbo vernacular was compulsorily introduced and taught in all schools in Ikwerreland before the Nigerian Civil War to the assimilation (i.e. destruction) of the Ikwere language. This also obviously led to the Rumuomasi Declaration in 1965. ” … in their meeting at Rumuomasi in 1965 the Ikwerre had, under the umbrella of a highly promising new body that was to get the Ikwerre together as a people of new and clearer vision, they had declared themselves as a people of the distinct identity of Ikwerre Ethnic Nationality – not Ibo, not Ijo, not anything else but Ikwerre, Iwhnurọhna. This was the historic Rumuomasi Declaration of 1965 (G.O.M. Tasie, 2000). The full implication is that Ikwere people began to assert themselves forcefully as an ethnic nationality of their own and not Ibos or Ijos, and efforts were made to revert to the original Ikwere names for families, villages, communities and landmarks. For instance, there was the change from Umuola to Rumuola, Umuoro to Rumuoro, Umukrushi to Rumuokwurusi,  just to name a few.

osahonmk:
The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola has unveiled plans to commission some electricity projects this year.

Fashola, who made this revelation in Lagos during the 11th Monthly Stakeholders meeting, said some of the projects to be commissioned in the course of the year include the completion of the Kaduna 215 megawatt power plant; the Gurara project and the Gardin Kowa plant. Others are switching of the Gudenda substation, as well as the conclusion of the Katsina wind and the Abuja solar farms.

The second phase of the Abuja solar project, he noted would run-up from 800watts to 1.2 megawatt and possibility of partnerships in the area of development of hydro dams.

He also disclosed that there are 14 projects for transmission in Lagos State and Ikeja West, which is the largest in terms of transformer capacity, is currently undergoing expansion to respond to the growing needs of population. “This tells you clearly that the transmission system is not static, it is dynamic and expanding.”

According to him, the evacuation of power at the Ikot Ekpene switching station is what has kept the grid to almost 4,000 megawatts. “We still have 3,000 megawatt out from the damage of the excado and vocado, so if that comes back, we are almost at 7,000 megawatts, so the target is incremental power.”

Fashola, who acknowledged the challenges operators are facing, expressed worries over consumer service as the focus of the power sector, saying “it remains the top burner issue because our staff must understand that without the customers, they do not have jobs and if they lack the skill and patients to serve, then they should leave.”

“Various distribution areas should improve the quality of service and recognize the customer as king, if we cannot solve the problem, we owe them some explanation. The issues around metering and billing should be addressed with trust,” he added.

On behalf of the operator, the Chief Executive Officer, Ikeja Electric, Mr Anthony Youdeiwoe stated that though the expectations of the Nigerian public have not been fully met, operators are working hard in the midst of the volatility of the operating grounds to meet up.

The seven Igbo speaking states, Enugu, Ebonyi, Anambra, Imo, Abia, Delta and Rivers, as well as other affiliate groups, including pro-Biafra groups, the MASSOB, and the IPOB participated in the election with specified number of delegates.



“I will not use this position to make money; if I am asked to die for you, I will do so”, he vowed.
Nwodo equally pledged to hold a meeting with the IPOB and other pro-Biafra groups, stressing that “if we allow them to be killed on daily basis, their blood will be on our head.”
