Bringing him to court has proven that sit at home is more effective than any form of protest. Bringing him to court has also proven that South East is the most important unit of this failed nation and FG can't afford a 30 day Lock down.
People who have lost their territories will call us Afghaeastern while they are more of slaves in their own region.
An Igbo man will never be a slave... And anyone that follows the part of slavery will be cast away lest he infect others.

This is deep but true. Even in all our excesses God still loves us and have proven that over and over. In Nigeria, Igbos have been the most persecuted save for my people in the middle belt and the Northern Christians. I still say words of prayer for you guys. Even when there is nobody to speak for you, the might arm of God will deliver you at God's appointed time.Amen

Lovenorth:
Why are Igbo always begging us to free them? Why can't them free themselves

What we are doing in the east now does it look like begging? Weather u like it or not Nigeria is gradually restructuring. With Vat issus and state police cooking u cannot stand against a rolling Stone.

Cholls:
My brothers and sisters this man hasn't received his monthly payment from the government yet, so he can vent his frustration in this manner. Na their way divide and conquer!

It is you who have not received sense from birth. He made this statement based on the premise that even marriage between couples can be negotiated if they wish to live together in harmony. But u suddenly derailed from the subject matter. It's unfortunate that most young Nigerians can't think critically anymore, and will always remain unproductive

SmartPolician:
Tomorrow, someone will be wondering why foreign countries are profiling Nigerians at the airport.

These guys - commiting this crime and tarnishing what's left of Nigeria's already battered image - should know that most of us are marginalised, including myself. However, we all haven't resorted to crime yet.

Not justifying crime but there is a remote cause to it. Let me explain, the same thing that makes an average igbo graduate or business man to travel to Lagos or Abuja for greener pastures is the same thing that pushes the same guys to travel abroad. EVERYBODY MUST 'BENEFIT' FROM THE LONG TIME SYSTEMATIC MARGINALIZATION OF THE IGBOS. SADLY, IGBOS ARE INDUSTRIOUS IN NATURE, SO THIS THEIR NATURE COULD SWING EITHER WAY (+or-) depending on the circumstances. Only persons with Godly resolve can stay calm in the face of such MARGINALIZATION. I worked as contract staff in WRPC most of my ogas were northerners and southwestners. Could hardly c easterners or southsouth. Maybe is our calling .They couldn't even retain me on a contract basis even with my xperience cos I came from d "wrong tribe".

If each state were to manage their resources, some state go empty while some go overfull

God gave everybody or state potentials let everyone one maximize their potential. Has a Dongote stopped and otedole from shinning neither have an obi Cuba stopped a good suya seller from feeding his family.

amc:
But the biggest contributors of VAT are not wailing unlike you lot. Empty vessels making the most noise.

Don't change the narrative. Somebody came with a superior argument and ur trying to get it twisted. They truth is that d south is getting more wiser and theirs nothing the north can do about.My only advice to the Northern elite to make their society competitive to this modern age

Bishop Oyedepo said they will start falling and dying soon, I hope this man is one of those he was referring to.

Stop this nonsense, this can happen to anybody.

Elbinawi:
There is More Religious Tolerance in the North than in the South

Some people will be surprise with this topic but this is the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth.

An Igbo Muslim brother made this observation:

"I study in ABU Zaria. I can count reasonable number of churches and Chapels inside the campus but goto UNN or even Unizik in Awka. You can barely see any mosque there in the campus and later you will open your mouth & spew nonsense about the North not been religious tolerant."

Truth be told there is more religious tolerance in the Muslim-majority states of the North than in the Christian-majority states of the South. We should exclude the South West states from this analysis as that region has 50-50 Muslim/Christian population.

It is easier to build a Church in Sokoto state than to build a Mosque in Ebony state. There are presently hundreds of Churches in Zamfara state, a state with 98% Muslim majority but there are no 20 Mosques in Ebony state.

Even in Borno state despite the more than 10 years BokoHaram insurgency, there are hundreds of Churches there.

And a Nigerian Muslim sister has this to say:

"I have never asked a Christian why she is not covering her hair but I can’t count how many times Christians disturb me about my Hijab."

Western Civilization is a choice and not a standard of judgement and measurement. If a Muslim sister chose the Hijab that is her right. Western dressing is not an obligation. It is not a must to dress like Jennifer Lopez and it should not be a norm or a standard.

Our major problem in the North is religious extremism and not religious tolerance. Wahhabi extremism and Sunni extremism exist in the North. Wahhabi extremism gave rise to Al-Qaeda, ISIS and BokoHaram while Sunni extremism gave rise to Buhari gang of bloodthirsty killers who are notorious Shia killers.

Elbinawi.

My brother stop spreading lies from the pit of hell. In UNN along the gate leading to flat there is a mosque there that moslems go to pray. The problem is that most Muslim students come 4 sandwich or pg programs. They are always running around to do assignments or project that most times ur mosque no dey full. Even Christian's, UNN will load u with assignments that if u are not careful u will be skipping a lot of church programs.

Sanchozz:
What could be the cause of this now?

The cause is simply. The employee in question seemed to have raked in millions for the owner and was expecting good treatment or promotion but received more work with no appreciation. The employee decided to resign sensing he can help himself without d job. The employee became nervous that this man has known the in and out of his business and could do something to hamper him. This is done either to force him to come back or that he doesn't think of ever messing with his business. Las Las na insecurity on the part of the employer because the hunter doesn'twant to be the hunter. My one cent

jesusjnr2020:
Some women who God has used to greater effect as Smith Wigglesworth's wife actually questioned their husband when he had strayed from the faith and began to demand things of her that were not of God.

She told him that he was her husband but that Jesus was her Lord!

That was the saving grace of the husband as he was hence restored back to the faith, and would never play with his wife afterwards. That's probably why we hardly have women of such such spiritual calibre these days, because they have made their husbands to take the place of God as the Lord and Master of their lives, hence God cannot use them for much because He cannot share His position with any man.

Moreover, the wife of Abraham questioned her husband concerning Hagar and her son Ishmael, that it was said to have grieved Abraham much, but God told him to hearken to his wife's voice.

Genesis 21:12 (KJV)

And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.

So you can actually see that even though it's what men love to hear, this saying of a woman not questioning her husband and being demonic is not of God but of men.

God bless

Sorry brother but u did not understand the grounds she said what she said. Her comparison was the church and Christ. As Christian's we all revere Jesus Christ as our saviour and the Lord. Just as we dialogue with Jesus Christ through the help of the Holyspirit same way should a wife dialogue with her husband respecting his headship especially in matters that doesn't contradict God's command.it hard to do but if u will allow the H.spirit and word of God to mould u then it's possible. Shallom to all d women that have understood this golden rule

Righteousness2:
This is not a good one at all.
This is a Huge stain on the Security/Corruption apparatus of our Nation as a whole.

Mr Supercop, You don't need an angel or Prophet to tell you that Huspuppi is not pure.

Seems the Cup of Iniquity of our Supercop Abba kyari is Full..

See Bros this country m dey on a reverse gear. If a main stream cop can be neck deep in corruption buhari and his cohort are just decieving themselves with anticorruption bruhaha

This guy is looking for Twitter followers bit Landed on nairaland. I suspect his a blogger. If his not then na overdose things

Jcash90:
Their wahala Wetin concern me

Here no be Twitter in case u dey find followers

AntiBMC:
I don't trust ds Ohaneze fellows. All ds ones is formality.

Stop this ur pessimistic rant. Afterall Nnamdi kanu never listened to igbo elders to curtail his excesses in the cause of agitations. Even though he has the right to agitate for secession but you don't have to burn all the bridges. Truly OHANAEZE is being magnanimous with this move and has shown commitment unlike before they were singing in cacaphony cos of bribe from different quarters.i must commend them, they are beginning to do well and I think is time 4 well meaning Igbos to join them. I wish the youth wing will emulate this new trend and not gallivanting looking 4 peanut at d expense of ur people's betterment

LET ME MAKE IT CLEAR IGBOS HAVE ALWAYS SURVIVED WITH OR WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF OTHER TRIBES. NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY TO LOOK AT IT, WE HAVE ATTAINED A LEVEL OF SELF SUFFICIENCY. THE TRUTH IS IGBOS HAVE INDELIBLE BLOOD LINES THAT RUN IN SOME STATES OF THE SOUTH SOUTH AND THERE IS ALWAYS A FORCE OF ATTRACTION AND A LOT OF RALLING POINT. IF THE NORTH CANNOT TAME US, IS IT NOW PANDEF THAT CAN TAME OVER 60MILLION INDUSTRIOUS AND PROSPEROUS IGBOS .THEY SHOULD BETTER BE CAREFUL COS THIS BAD TIME WILL NOT LAST FOREVER

valentineuwakwe:
Sure you are right but trust them, they will flood the premises with thousands of stern looking police men, air force, army, navy, DSS, immigration, prisons, civil defense, Mopol, miyetti Allah .....just to scare away supporters dat day!


Am still wondering why none of the herdsmen have been arrested or taken to court......papa God Abeg help this country!

I go shock u die hard IPOB members no they fear security especially now it has to do with kanu.

Jerryherd:
As much as I like hon Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba, because he is very intelligent... I strongly disagree on this.

Let him convert this petty money to dollars and see what paltry some it is

Professors are the peak of academic career, just like Supreme Court Justice, Brigadier general, President of their various fields and careers

For the fact he said something like this I will consider him a slowpoke. Does he know d number of Thompson reuters journals they have to write in UNN before u become a Prof. If House members and senators can become multi millionaires in just 4 years why can't a Prof try to come close in almost 20-25yrs of hard work. Infact if that guy near me I for tiara m slap

Seun what's happening. I never used this word slowpoke I used slowpoke, how come it turned to slowpoke and can't modify

jetwonder:
Nice One! I Need More Of It.

I'm an igbo man but I completely believe this. In the 17th to 18th century the ancient Benin kingdom was already developed mother than some European enclave, before d British came to distort this because of invention of guns and steam engines.

O God what am I still doing in this country. BABA my talents are not valued here I need to be in a better clime. Abeg if u are on a scholarship in China, US, UAE ABEG help a brother. I can't imagine spending my whole life here with unutilized potentially. My msc work got me been invited to conferences in Japan etc but don't have d money to make d trips that could be short-lived I need a permanent get away.

FutureIsFemale:
The table is turning. Oh! What a time to be alive. May we all witness a female GCFR in this country IJN.
[img]https://media./images/701a32089dae6464ea37bf4f8595c256/tenor.gif[/img]

Soon we'd be hearing statements like; "Your Excellency, the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Mrs. ........................

And that day my heart would be gladden with great joy. And I'd leap and thank the Lord for he has delivered us from our oppressors. It's going to be the beginning of a new dawn. May God keep us all alive to witness it IJN.

The other day I saw a picture of a quiz competition and when I looked closely, I discovered that majority if not, all the contestants were FEMALES. Oh! My heart leaped for joy.
And I shouted:
"When the Lord brought back the captive ones of Zion, We were like those who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter And our tongue with joyful shouting; Then they said among the nations, “The Lord has done great things for them.” The Lord has done great things for us; We are glad".



Dear nairalanders, don't try to quote me because you all would never understand my pains. There were times I wished I was a male due to the ill-treatment I received from the opposite sex. My heart gladdens whenever I see or hear great things from my gender. For years back, we were the rejected stones. We were written off. I remember when female education was meaningless to the African people. But today the Lord has changed our story.


The FUTURE is FEMALE

My sister I am looking forward to that day. Most men in positions of authority in Nigeria are suffering from moral depravity, u merit something they won't give unless u bring money or ur are a lady that is ready to submit. I'm proud to say that most things i have gotten by merit came from women without asking 4 anything in return. Most are real women of virtue that will recognize that by helping u that have helped ur depends. But most men in positions of authority are unrepentant sadists quote me I have had a lot of bad experience.

YorubaKinging:
The end is near

Peter Obi, part of the the rot that is corrupting this great southern nation

Selfish and stingy

Will never be president or vice President

Biafra all the way

U needs a factory reset. So u prefer the obi cubano style that makes nonsense of genuine hard working people.Dont mention Biafra becos u are making a mess of our fathers and grand parents that know why they are fighting, not some self delusional psycho that will want another psycho to be at d helm

PeaceJoyLove:
Before ibo can be president, ah! No unity. Always fighting themselves. It is not like we dont like SE, but mehn! They are their own enemies.

How does this ur rant relate to the subject matter just like Buhari recovering Abacha loot and ur saying the Fulani will not be president.Common sense is not common.

Bisiebae:
Wawu
We must be patriotic and remain as one Nigeria

WHO DO U WANT TO BE PATROTIC WITH U? WHEN THEIR IS NO LEVEL PLAYING GROUND. NIGERIA IS LIKE A RADIACTIVE ELEMENT IT WILL CONTINUE TO WITNESS SPONTENUOUS REACTIONS UNTILL IT GETS TO ITS STABLE STATE. PHYSICS STUDENTS NO WHAT I MEAN

As an igbo man, I'm not ethused about an Igbo president all I want is a restructured Nigeria or secession cos if they give us okorocha or Orji uzo kalu wetin we gain. Nigeria has a structural imbalance any president thrown into the contraption will always struggle though not with the degree of our current GMB sorry GMD LOL

Iceyjayz:
Unless she dated a very bad guy, most ladies the architect of their own problems, this is why I do blame them most times.

Their is a great deal of truth in what u say. Most girls will see good hearted guys they won't date or marry them cos he may not be flashy or rich enough. When a play boy comes with money and flashy cars they quickly succomb even when it's obvious they will hurt them

Adetayo1978:
What's your business about that? Why not leave the man alone with his private/family life.

What is good for the goose is good 4 gander. 2face people blinded by ethnicity and religion. Even in logic Reno is not comparing apples and oranges , he drew his conclusion from the right premise so deal with.

DDDEnterprises:
But Igboho hasn't been violent nah.

Or am i mistaken?

what did he do?

You guys should continue to show ur folly, when south easteners and south south saw this traits and rejected him, u guys tot we were naive. We will not be tired of reminding u guys cos the red tape where every but ur guys attached sentiment cos of osibanjo now who is calling the shots.Furthermore, people may thing that d Igbos hate the ordinary hausa/fulanis but what we hate are some of them with conquest mentality. When Musa Yaradua was d president Igbos embraced him becos he was liberal and had respect for d rule of law. This is a wake up call to southners to jettison sentiment in voting.For instance me as an igbo man, if u present an Orji uzo kalu vs Adesina, I will vote Adesina becos he brings credibility to d table but many Nigerians will be attaching ethnic sentiment which we later Choke them. LET HIM THAT HAS EAR LISTEN AND BE GUARDED BY WISDOM

gurunlocker:
Not a supporter, but why are some people so free to negotiate with Bandits, even dictate what to do to government in the North? They say even worse things but go free? Even the security agencies and Army do reply them with respect on social media when finger is pointed....


What hell of a country is this? What's the benefit of being a Nigerian?

Why is it that the Igbos are the first to perceive this thing and others will be coming on board later. Well is not too late, no southern state will be spared an attack on one is an attack on all. the earlier the southern and mild belt realize it the better. Our governors need to wake up and defend their own because when the flood comes their power will be useless and their people will remember the roles they played

Jalobe:
Funny. How old are you? Such a stupid thing to say.

How have ur age help ur reasoning if u can't put on ur thinking cap and see the handwriting on the wall
