If Seun was an Igbo man almost EVERY single mod on Nairaland will be an Igbo. Anyway, I have been saying for awhile now that the days of liberal Yorubanism are almost over. The internet and social media has expose the wanton hatred (towards Yorubas) of certain nomadic Ugandans who are filled with bile. We the new generation of Yorubas are not gonna be as accommodating as our parents and uncles. We will restructure our political system and make sure that we remove enemies who reside within our gates - there is time for everything...a time to accommodate and a time to close our doors..

DerideGull:
Are you this slow? Biafra left Nigeria in 1967 and never returned. What stream of thought brought about the issue of "BIAFRA: TO LEAVE OR NOT TO LEAVE"?

greenermodels:
the author should mind his own regional problems with that that his unknown blog.after the Hausa vs Yoruba clash at ife,only yorubas were arrested including an oba,they're still unjustly detained till today plus many other problems affecting the yorubas but you hardly see them agitate or discuss their problems rather they would be moving from one igbo thread to another spewing hatred over what is not their concern. a famous sage said that "an unexamined life is not worth living"

You would think some of them are running for President of Biafra unopposed. We will, Biafra will...

The Joint Admissions Matriculation Board (JAMB) says more than 10,000 candidates caught for examination malpractices in the ongoing UTME in Anambra have been handed over to appropriate authority.

Lynda Nwachukwu, the Coordinator of the board in Anambra, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Awka on Saturday.

NAN reports that the all computer-based testing (CBT) mode 2017 UTME, which started on May 13 in 642 centres nationwide, ended on May 20.

Ms. Nwachukwu said the examination, which took place in 28 centres in the state, was successful.

“There was no disruption of the exercise in any of the examination centres,’’ she said.

The coordinator said the candidates adhered strictly to the requirements of the examination, adding that JAMB provided all the materials required for the examination.

NAN correspondent, who monitored the last batch of the examination, reports that some parents complained of system failure in some CBT centres in the state.

Eucharia Okonkwo, a parent, said her daughter, who wrote the examination at the St Mary’s High School Ifite-Dunu centre, could not complete the examination due to the faulty computer and network failure at the centre.



According to her daughter, many candidates could not complete the questions in record time because of the faulty system.

Ms. Okonkwo advised JAMB to plan well for examination in subsequent years to avoid the technical hitches that could give the candidates psychological trauma.

Mose Mojekeh, Head, Department of Marketing at the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, told NAN on telephone that such system failure in UTME was not acceptable.

According to him, the hiccups could potentially deny young people from Anambra State university admission.

Mr. Mojekeh advised JAMB to urgently collate the number of candidates affected and set another examination for them.

He also decried the practice whereby JAMB sends officials from one state to supervise examinations in another state.

“Experience has shown that such officials do not care much about the candidates when problems arise, as they leave them to their fate,’’ the lecturer said.

He called on the management of schools, whose candidates experienced the computer failure, to take their complaints to the State Ministry of Education to present their cases.

JAMB concluded the 2017 CBT UTME on May 20.

Abagworo:
All are right depending on the writer because traditional Igbo writing is not in Roman but Nsibidi.Several of such spelling disagreements occur in many Igbo words.

Engaging you will be a total waste of my time, in as much as i would have love to engage you, you sound too dumb to understand anything, first what is aqua-cross? do you even know what the fattening tradition i was referring to is? and why state that it is not peculiar to akwa-cross alone when i already mentioned people whom practice same tradition with them? show me where igbo ever claimed invention of Nsibidi? igbos only proudly promote it.

and hey you little man of low self esteem who shines on the low, no one is claiming nsibidi instead it is been promoted and credit duly given to the originators.

so Mr OP i hope you see why i cant engage you in foolery numbskull

9jakool:
I didn't care until you brought Afonja into the matter. You borrowed the culture and there is no problem with that. Nsibidi has no meaning in Igbo. However, it has a meaning among the Ejagham which you borrowed it from. The traditions you listed were all borrowed from the Cross river people. It's alright, just an example of cultural diffusion. In the Western axis you have Igbos who have adopted some Benin culture. It's a shared culture, however it's still borrowed nonetheless.

Coolitempq:
Many Igbo communities bordering Akwacross and within Present day IMO and Abia like Aro, Ohafia etc practice the Leopard cult system, fattening room culture as well as the nsibidi writing. These are shared culture between both groups.

Op don't die just yet cause, Igbo's still have more surprises cooking with the nsibidi cause they are taking advanced steps to make it more intelligible. so try again with your hate... the nsibidi is just one of several other shared culture.

Many Afonjas today wear and claim the agbada which they have no links or connections with and you don't see any one crying about it, so why cry when Igbo is trying to promote a shared culture between them and the Akwacross region.

THE FORTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS LOST & FOUND IS MINE

Where else can one hide his money from armed robbers? It is unfortunate that we cannot put money in the bank, at the farm, in the freezer, in a sewage tank and inside our house anymore; without some busy bodies revealing it to Economic and Financial Crime Commission. The forty-five million dollars found in that Ikoyi apartment is mine. It must be returned immediately to me otherwise EFCC will see me in the court of law under democracy and the rule of law.

This money and others that was misplaced came from Ofada Rice business sold all over Africa. If the court can unfreeze Mrs. Patient Jonathan’s money, I want the same court under democracy and the rule of law and order to call EFCC to order even before I file my complaint. The only place people like us can get justice is in Nigeria. After all this money has not left the country. Indeed, out of patriotism, the money was kept in Nigeria instead of Dubai.

We have stopped putting money in western countries because of how Ibori, Alamsco and now the beautiful Princess Diezani is being shadowed by British police. They are very corrupt since they embezzled part of Ibori’s loot. Their judicial system took incriminating exhibit, smuggled evidence and testimony from that traitor Nuhu Ribadu to convict Ibori. No fair and just court adhering to the rule of law and justice would do that in Nigeria. No be joke A dey joke O!

Justice Ademola must preside over my case when filed in court. The honorable Judge of high pedigree understands the high handedness of Buhari’s EFCC and ICPC war on those who earned their raw foreign currencies fair and square. Indeed, the judicial system in Nigeria is one of the best in the whole world. Where else would the Chief Justice of Appeal Court accuse the Chief Justice of Nigeria of miscarriage of justice and influence peddling if not in Nigeria?

People think we forget. It is sad that any politician can hire a crowd to protest for as little as a thousand naira per head. With forty-five millions dollars, anyone can imagine what I would do if I triple that going rate plus ten sachets of rice. My people would Occupy EFCC and ICPC. Some of you do not realize how powerful the masses are until they exhibit and unleash their anger. When EFCC found my money, did they think all that cashistics grew from the cement?

It should be obvious to EFCC that every possible or probable owner of this money has denied anything to do with it. Most of the cash found in unholy places have moved from one agency to another. By the time we ask what happened to all the cash found, they have disappeared. This one must not disappear. Anyone that knows how many billions of grains there are in Ofada Rice will understand that forty –five millions in any currency is a small change.

Some planners were already hired and we were planning how to turn Makoko, Otodo Gbame and Ajegunle into paradise. Most reasonable people know that we have to build low cost housing for the people to move to. This was exactly what we did at Ita-Akanni before we finally get people to move to Suru-lere. $45 million is a drop in the bucket for the implementation of our noble project. Every reasonable person must appeal to EFCC to release the money to me.

Re: The Black Africans Who Ruled Europe From 711 To 1789 - Pics by Godwin10(m): 1:39am

Bahddo:
Hmmm... I like this. There are questions though...

If blacks ruled Europe, how is it that the Europeans saw blacks as sub-human species only fit to be sold as slaves? How come the blacks that ruled Europe lost their influence to the extent of being wiped out? Today there are no traces, except for these 'artworks'. Why is that so?

You share same school of thought as me. If the blacks were the rulers in the past over the Europeans, what then happened?

porka:
You are entitled to your paranoia!

Meantime, try and write in simple English.

porka:
Are you also saying that all “common accused” who have been discharged and acquitted should have been jailed for 100+ years?

This type of psychological manipulations of your audience against your perceived political opponents is the sum total of the entire Buhari politics.

Such can only appeal to emotionally unstable folks who lack self-confidence and ability to compete fairly in an open sphere.

To you, it is an excellent thing if people you don’t like are held up in trump-up charges without open and transparent legal process to assert their culpability or innocence.

People who use their minds more than their emotion don’t fall for such; even if it’s against their staunchest political foes.

If you remove such emotional exploitation of gullible minds from Buhari’s politics, what is left is total emptiness; which has SHOWN clearly in the last 2 years of his governance.

The number of able-bodied folks that have been turned to destitute is increasing daily. The number of people who are ready to jump into the Lagoon at the slightest sign of life’s setback (even by highly trained top uniformed officers) is also a clear evidence of this.

Come up with proofs that this judge and those people you mentioned are indeed guilty of the allegations and convince the trial judge(s) why you think they should be sentenced to 100+ years.

Nothing stops the EFCC/DSS/ICPC etc. from appealing the sentences up to the Supreme Court if they are dissatisfied with the rulings.

That is the most basic fulcrum upon which democracy and the rule of law rest – IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR PERSONAL FEELINGS OR FRUSTRATIONS.
