We Nigerians don't care, we prefer Osinbajo

It took our government almost three decades to do the needful, some players in the 1994 squad may not even be alive again

So don't jazzy is still dying for Rihanna, too late man, she's pregnant for someone else

This is a sensitive and controversial question

There's no teamwork among our players, they play well in foreign clubs but the reverse is the case for Nigeria

He's somebody role model

If na to mention celebrities, he will not miss road

This is a big achievement for them, it means one British soldier is equal to 10 russian soldiers and one American soldier is equal to 20 Russia soldiers I guess.

Finally the collapse of Russia and end of Vladimir Putin

Putin remains a war criminal invading a sovereign country and killing innocent people.

It should be 8 in 10 Nigerians

The man of God is telling them the home and uncomfortable truth they can't swallow.

The folks giving us bad name

Ijoh:
2baba wants to contest for Governor.

o don't think so, he was just expressing his mind

Maxymilliano:
Numerically, the Idoma are disadvantaged when compared to the Tiv. Democracy is a game of number, many Nigerians are only interested in voting along tribal line even when it is obvious their candidate doesn't have the required competence.

that's why we remain underdeveloped

Christistruth02:
What Gov Ortom did was so unwise he made it look like only Tivs could Govern Benue he did absolutely nothing to encourage the others

our leaders are dividers

Rugaria:
And why do most of you keep quiet as you are marginalized and truamatized politically and economically, only to start shouting down the groups trying to rectify the situation? I mean the igede are quiet. They're not agitating vigorously as they should. Now an idoma man is trying to draw attention to the plight of his people and all of a sudden, you want to use the situation of the igedes to rain on the parade of the idomas... Is that right? Cryy your cry and let him rynhis cry.. It's like this everywhere in this country. Folks always trying to complain about the complainant...

Most of you won't say anything about the deplorable state of Nigeria but you are all dying inside. You hate what the fulanis are doing. You hate the way a section of the country has managed to corner everything for themselves while relegating almost everybody else to the background. But once the igbos start to agitate, you all get upset. We start hearing stuff like "are you the only ones suffering"? If you're suffering too, stand up and be counted and stop castigating those who feel that enough is enough, and started doing something..

personally I've been agitating on this platform and others

tamdun:
That's life, its always been like this everywhere, even in US

US democracy is far matured than our own

Sad

OMENKAismad:
2 baba I never hear you say something about killing I'm Benue state abi you don collect gana must go

don't mind him

ImmaculateJOE:
Let's start from the presidency, from there States, senatorial district, Federal constituency, LGA, and Wards will follow suit.

I think we need to start from the bottom first

ImmaculateJOE:
Delta State is doing well in terms of equity and fairness.

that's very good, equal representation will bring rapid growth

omenkaLives:
TuBaba is asking that question on the wrong platform. He should have made the post of Facebook where most politically active Benue people are found.

By the way, he's hypocritical too. The idoma are doing to us what the Tiv are doing to the entire state.

If they really wanna have this discussion, they should first allow an Igede man to become the Senator or Minister for Zone C. When this happens, then they can have the moral platform upon which to stand and make such demands for governorship.

exactly bro, I agree wholeheartedly

alsudan:
The Idoma should first allow Omenkas tribe Igede to be the Zone C Senator in Benue, before demanding for Governor.

As it is, Omenka can never amount to anything in Benue politics, not even just a Senator. It’s that horrible for the fellow.

lol

qekng40:
I think its this state that always have a Governor from one particular tribe, deputy Governor from one particular tribe and Speaker of the state house of assembly from one particular tribe.

Its been so since time immemorial.

Methinks the majority ethnic group/tribe are bullies!

they are big bullies, and that's not democracy at all

We need to address the issue of marginalisation and nepotism in this country for any meaningful progress to occur, and for the sake of equity and fairness

There's marginalisation everywhere in Nigeria both at the national, state and local government levels.

The Tivs have numeric advantage over idoma and igede put together and they are not ready to relinquish power yet, the same way idoma people believe that the seat of Benue south senatorial zone is their birthright and they won't allow igede man to be senator.

The Tivs have been producing governor since 1999 and it's not fair, we want equal representation and opportunity to serve.

I appeal to the Tivs to reconsider and allow other tribes to produce governor.

I have a cordial relationship with my tiv and idoma friends and neighbours both at home and work in my state of residence, this issue of discrimination only exist more in Benue state.

We all should come together and embrace one another because outside the shores of Nigeria, nobody cares whether you are Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba or igede.
The outside world doesn't care, we carry the same image and national identity.

I think there's Something fundamentally wrong with Nigeria, say no to tribalism, nepotism and marginalisation.

These gangsters and firebrands should be arrested ASAP

He's a war criminal
