Instead of celebrating individuals, I hope the day will come when we will celebrate ourselves as a people in our villages, cities and country.

No people have ever moved forward as an individual but individuals have moved people forward.

These competing celebration of individuals must stop. Nigerians are no longer looked upon as potential power or big brother in Africa. What are we celebrating?

I agree with my South African brother.

TMKsouth:


Why would South Africans want to be government ministers in foreign lands? Ever heard of Canadians and Australians becoming ministers in other countries?

What stopped this Madu character from excelling at home in Nigeria? Structural problems of a failed state right there! grin

You should learn to stay home & build your country. Why do u live like this mara? Right now U the laughing stock of the world. This Madu guy should be preventing Ghana from shutting down your spaza shops & imposing ridiculous $1million ransom for a mere kiosk - instead he's advancing Western democracies. grin grin The legislators stuck in Nigeria are helpless against Ghana.

And you're here bragging about it. WRECKED BRAIN INDEED grin grin grin

Going by what I read here, Nigerians think this guy was elected on merit?

Too many fools here think of all the black lawyers in Alberta, he is the most qualified based on merit to be appointed.

You guys need a thinking cap. He was elected as a token to push conservative agenda as in the case of Italy against people that look like him. But then, why would you care?

Igbo Amaka.

From Italy, UK to Alberta Canada Nigerian politicians are following the conservative trend in the most extremist parties. Indeed, Nigeria are organizing demonstration in support of the Republican Party and the best President America has ever had.

Those of you nursing ambition to leave this shiithole country, be prepared to receive more of your deported kin back home.

There is a Dept. of Citizenship Review created already by your Party. This is legal citizens we are talking about, not to even think about legal immigrants or undocumented.

Nigerians in conservative parties abroad Amaka!

Thank you sir.

TruthHurts100:
Let us enlighten you and your 5G pastor. He suddenly stopped talking about 5G. Now it's the skin color. Is that the job of a pastor? Let's leave that for now.

Now, there's nothing like black skin and there is no White skin. Someone with very little education should know that calling someone white or black is just to identify their race. See, we have red Indians, does that mean they have red skin.

Even Africans with light skin are black by race. Your pastor that is talking is an African, looking at his skin, will you call him brown skin?

Why are these people talking like they haven't passed through school before? Haaaa even with PhD?

Oga, our race is Black. Oyinbo is White. We all belong to the human race.

I am Black and I'm proud. Black is beautiful, Bold and Strong.

Once these fake ass men say something, you guys suddenly become illiterates.

Is this topic the solution to our problem in the world. Why leave leprosy and start looking for cure to ringworm. E fi ete s'ile, e n pa lapalapa.

Peace.

Who the hell is Beyonce?

Honesty, you guys have greatly underestimated the reaction of those that studied Igbo culture and know you inside out. It could have been better to keep your mouth shut instead of trying to fabricate a false sense of gratification with nonsense.

All these just because you wanted to compete with Yoruba and Bini.

Benin taught Yoruba a lesson. If you ignore them and let them build castles on the sand, when it collapses on their heads, Yoruba will have to take them to Babalawo for care.

BabaRamota and TAO1, E ku ise o!

So you are ready to destroy the livelihood of those that counter your hate propaganda on their own land.

Fine, what is the punishment for your hate and outbursts against innocent people on their own land?

Bewiseedet:
Cops brutality of black African-Americans are getting out of hand.

It got out of hand a long time ago. Black people deserve respect for their lives in Africa and in Diaspora.

Waiting for Nigerian Trump supporters to defend the USA Police.

Okay FFK. Now answer the kwesiom.

Who is sponsoring you inspection tour?

DrChukki:
Nigeria world trade centre is open now for letting... I passed there last week

I used to stay close by when FESTAC was the most beautiful village in the world.

Do they still have that graceful meatpie?

BTW, I did not see Lagos road as the most expensive in the world there.

onoja12:
Fact

Would they listen?

IamCookie:
Most of our Engineers do rubbish jobs most of the time,hence the reason.

MOST?

Please do not exaggerate the problems. They are part of our corruption leper community.

Do you know any other group of graduates more intelligent than engineers?

Funny thing is, they don't even beat their chests.

Foreign Porfolio Investors

Another chop chop money.

What were they doing before, country policing?

You are certainly right about one thing. I was thinking about Ikoyi, Lagos.

But my brother, does it have to be? Do you have to be a Prince, a Chief or a king to point out what is wrong?

Yoruba etiquette and standard are falling because we are being infected with the rest of Nigeria.

I was only appealing to your cultural value regardless of your blood and state.

My apologies.

ajailer:
Did I tell you that I am a prince that you are mentioning birthright or is my father a king that you are talking about inheritance?

I guess you don't know where Ikoyi is otherwise you won't talk this or you think it is the Ikoyi in Lagos State?

You guys don't get it.
It is legal to borrow and transparent to service debts But illegal to launder � money.

The same Finance Minister that lectured us the advantages of paying off our debts came back in the following Government to teach us the advantages of borrowing at low rate.

Harvard and Oxford Economics!

Nigerians would rationalize their birthrights and inheritance away.

ajailer:
The oba is only onikoyi of Ikoyi, a hamlet town while Iba Gani Adams is the Aare ona kakanfo of the whole Yoruba land.......it's just the way I see it sha, I might be wrong

The most precious talents any country can dream of are Engineers. They have existed since the first known human.

They are the ones that transform every field, discipline and all aspects of life.

No Country can do without them except Nigeria that can import laborers as expertriates to supervise our Engineers. Denying them crucial field experience.

Honestly, this people are something else.

TAO11 beat all of you sissies without balls ganging up on her, red blue and black. Instead of you all to make a showing at rebutting her facts, you started insulting her person.

Well, we should not be surprised. You used worse insults on your women that you still relegate to subhuman in your culture. That is why they leave you in the cellar.

Instead of going home sober, you are jubilating and celebrating defeat as usual.

Do you guys know the dates of Iron, Terracotta before bronze was introduced to you.

Any idea of Iwo Eleru, Nok Culture and the movement of Ife (7 of them accord. Obayemi) from North to South.

There are other cultures Igbo would not dare compare themselves with in Nigeria. But it is easier to use Yoruba as the Giant. Once you are lifted on the shoulder of the Giant, you started beating your chest that you can see further.

BabaRamota, could I use your last post for future discussion?

This is what we failed to do and they got away with fabrications to pump up their ego.

Hell or Weything You Call Yourself,

You people mumu no be small. So OBA means farm abi na barn or store.

So you crowned barm or store as Oba! You better put your broken record on again. You are not making sense to yourself.

"Oba" in reality is just an Igbo title used even up till today to refer to the "Extremely wealthy" of the society Wealth back then was measured By the size of your "Barn or store" which is called "Oba" in Igbo language.

BTW, we all know Igbo have no Kings or captains of the ships. They exist in clans and tribes.

The only time they have OBI is from Yoruba descendants. Even when they claim OBI has a meaning in their language, it is totally unrelated to Person or Captain in a ship.

Pity, they have turned into broken record, repeating the same auto answer. No intellect.

When you try to accommodate the Ugbo and make peace, you have to be careful. Otherwise, they will twist your action.

They claimed they own Ijebu Igbo!

Bode George almost lost his position in his party when he pleaded that Igbo must be allowed to represent Amuwo Odofin area of Lagos despite the fact that they do not have the votes. They then cooked up stats to show they won it on merit and votes; until they lost everything.

They called OBJ the most detrabilized Nigerian when he replace Yoruba with Igbo so that they could hold major positions after the war. Today they call him all kinds of names.

Igbo claimed they were the Yoruba in Ife that Moremi exposed until the Oba of Igbo nearby corrected them.

Immediately Ooni of Ife gave them accommodation in Ife, many of the groups rejected it that they are not from Ife. Today they are using Ooni as the authority for their bogus claim.

Their obsession with Yoruba is unlimited. You cannot blame them, so is the rest of the world that claim to be Yoruba decendants. You are all welcomed but do not twist your accommodation.

BabaRamota,

You are absolutely right. We ignored them because no one in his right mind would believe such imagery tales coming from them.

Why are we going to 1800/1900 to demonstrate they are cannibals walking naked without clothes when in our lifetime Awolowo went to campaign and they showed up with no clothes, not even animal skins except to cover their heads during festivals.

They even showed their own gods dressed up as if these are ordinary people many missionaries and Yoruba had showed with Aso Oke. Ordinary Yoruba on the streets!

Since most Yoruba do not take these ignoramus on, they have run wild on internet cooking up stories.

I am totally dismayed by the insults they passed on a respectable lady like TAO11 that exposed their insecurities. I thought it is only in Saudi Arabia these people without balls go to lick, suck and kiss asses. Never realize they would kiss TAO11 ass too at home.

One lady took them on and they lost their senses and decorum. Ndi Ara!

Another opportunity for looters to chop.

How is PD&I abi weything be dem name.

A guy was asking why all Black countries are poor. There you go. Your Colonial masters bled you dry.

Your forefathers sold gold for mirrors. Which of them is black or white?

You are laundering your Reserved for vanities and plastics. Which of them is black or white?

Branding and inferiority complex are neither black nor white.

Stop kissing up to anything close to white by stop bleaching your brains and skins.

TAO11,

You are exactly right. Professor Peter Ekeh warned and wrote about Edo fabrications but Pro. Ade Ajayi ignored them with the notion that their stories were too fantastic to be credible.

Now, the Igbo are coming up with theirs ignoring the obvious fact that Ooni relegated them as subordinate from Ife.

Before you know it, they start believing their own lies.

These ones here are lap dogs kissing your ass. They have to because they have no balls.

Pitiful sorry asses.

TAO11,

I do not know how you do it. All these Yoruba wannabes twist and fabricate stories to build their ego.

And what do you do, Puncture and Deflate their fabricated fabu.

They are all falling like flies like men without balls. You try sha!

Look here.

Find your level, Okay

Etinosa1234:
Is that why u want to cry....

Counter what they said...nor dey give motivational speech
Hellraiser77

TAO11,

I can understand why you went toe to toe with their lack of facts but insults.

It is hard to believe that the Ooni of Ife in trying to make peace between Yoruba and Igbo, went as far as telling them they are decendants from his Palace.

Many Igbo rejected it as being subordinates of Yoruba while others were glad to take it, run and interpret it the way they want.

Igbo have always wanted to be Yoruba and Ooni gave them a subordinate role.

It should have been the end of discussion and no arguments or insults.

Nnamdi Azikiwe claimed Bini as extension of Yoruba and named his son Ayodele.

The computer scientist Philip Emeagwali claimed to be an extension of Yoruba from Akure.

The Igbo from Delta State still speak Yoruba.

Yoruba outside Nigeria want to relate to Yoruba, so are Nigerians!

TAO11:
Thank you once more for being willing to be vulnerable enough to share the above damaging information.

The Ooni has therefore stated clearly enough that the Igbo people are a descended from the Yoruba people of Ife.

Thank you one more time for being vulnerable.

It was South Africa hating us, now our close relatives Ghana.

De shame too much bro.

Say what you want about OBJ, you taught him how to steal. Imagine an African Head of State that was humiliated by everyone because he had little in his account after his first coming.

He learned his lessons, came back and loot his share.

But he left another legacy. He became the First African Head of State to pay off Foreign debts. The same Finance Minister that lectured us of the dividends of debt-free country, came back under a different Government to lecture us about the benefits of "cheap loans".

Let the borrowers walk across desert and sea to pay back as slaves with their body parts.

juniorstar:
cancel wetin!! all the debt obj help cancel has been relooted 100times over. so what are we saying here!! let the country become hard to the level whereby no money for salaries then everyone would be prepared to loose their lives. if our debt is forgiven we would have the false impression that all is well with d country. when this country is gradually becoming comatose.

Nigeria can never import itself out of Poverty. It is illogical.

Those crying and begging for Foreign Everything from jobs, loans, goods and services to used and discarded materials need to borrow sense from their pockets instead.

There is some humility and soberness in making money the old fashioned way.

Some brought money from outside the village, Europe and America to build essential services in their villages. Some local millionaires without visible source of income intimate and destroy poor people possessions.

Allah Dey.
