The tears from zombies are too early na. The Sun has risen down east. After 2023 elections things will unfold. There will be lots of realignment that will mirror regionalism of the early 60's. All man will answer his Papa name.

For those shouting Nnamdi Kanu up and down, the guy has finished work tey tey. Hahahahahah. These guys are really dull.

Action and reaction, are equal and opposite.

BigSarah:
Wetin concern IPOB with that one

As if you did not read the accusation against them from Elrufai. What concerns Elrufai or any other northerner running their mouth about IPOB with their activities down East.

pricklewane:
I should provide prove of a chronic rogue..lol. You foolish Igbos never cease to amuse me. Have you ever seen a Nigeria politician without a sizeable amount of wealth before venturing into politics.

This criminal you want us to celebrate how is he different from all other criminals. Did he no steal to build malls in Abuja n PH. In case you'd argue he can stop his business because of governance can you tell use how many malls he built for his business before becoming a governor and how many as he built after leaving the govt coffers.

How come in all Peter Obi miserable life he never tot to open a Pandora account until he became the governor of Anambra state if he is truly the saint you fools want to make of this demon.

Make I no even talk about his murder in Azu river. Nothing stuck of this thief looting because Odili who was convicted in UK is celebrated in Nigeria. It is a known fact cursed n foolish Igbos celebrate criminals, Pandora Peter Obi can run but he can not hide and justice is coming slow but will definitely catch up with him

I understand your confusion as a Yoruba concerning Peter Obi's wealth. Peter Obi is from Agulu, Anambra state and if you have an Igbo friend ask him what Agulu people are known for when it comes to trade in Igboland. He will tell you Provisions and Bakery. Their frugality and discipline in business is legendary.

Peter Obi's father own a super market at the popular Ziks Avenue Fegge Onitsha, and made money from it. Just like is naturally expected, his children picked up from there and become major players in the provision retail market. Peter Obi at a point sealed a deal that made him the No 1 importer of Heinz salad cream in West Africa. Close your eyes and imagine how much profits he makes every minute from his Heinz products alone.

This guy, was a member of board of 3 banks before he even became a governor. Peter Obi made his money the classical Igbo trader way and then improved until he reached great heights. He has maintain a great level of public discipline and decorum ever since he left office and we are proud of him. Stop the envy oga.

JaroMan:

Give to them hot hot. They think they're sleek. Everybody knows how dirty and desperate they are, but they met their match in Peter Obi.
He doesn't live in Lagos.
Once he comes to Lagos, either for business or media rounds, he goes back to Onitsha. It baffles them that a man of Peter Obi rating doesn't stay in Lagos.
The would have found one thing in his house.
You remember the building in Ikoyi where they found billions? Can you remember how Lagos media were curios to know what was found in Obi's apartment? They're really rattled

Nwanne, most time one will just decide to stay away from the toxicity here, but then you read one rubbish from umu ekwensu and can't help it. How can a people be this devilish?

Newton85:
Oga, stop wasting grammar here. The tribalistic and religious bigot Peter Obi will never be President in this country. Your fellow meth cannibals at Ohaneze just begged Tinubu not to contest in 2023 but it's the "Yoruba camp" that's sweating in cold over a political nonentity that will never be considered by the PDP as a Presidential candidate? Lol, the delusions of you meth cannibals is legendary.

Continue smoking your Indian hemp in peace, agbero. We don't crown agbero leaders down here.

Peter Obi remains the man no "Yoruba" could hold a candle light near.

pricklewane:
So in your foolish you do not know Pandora Peter Criminal Obi bribe media outlet to take off article exposing is fraudulent ways.

Why do you think no Nigeria was bold enough to expose him for the diehard criminal he is till the foreign Pandora journal exposed him.

Provide proof of the said bribe or forever keep your foolish mouth shut. You guys have been fishing for Peter Obi's sins for ages yet nothing has stuck. To the extent that a yoruba journalist have to ask him on a national television how he made his money. As usual Obi did not disappoint.

You guys are so crooked over there that the idea of an upright man is unbelievable to ndi Yoruba. It show how low your owambe society has sunken.

Alba3:

You people don't even understand what they mean by democratic system; if you believe that Nigeria should beg Obi to come and rule them and you don't believe his party should present him, then I leave you to your emotions if it helps you to sleep.

You are the emotional one here guy. You suggested ealier that Peter Obi might be waiting for APC presidential ticket and ask if him or anyone representing him has ever made such move.

The guy is in PDP, and if ever he will contest it has to be under PDP. So chill.

NGpatriot:









Listen to this ipobian bigot contradicting himself with his own silly hypocrisy.

Shey Tinubu don declare before you begin foaming at the mouth like bingo?

Go and sit your ipobian ass somewhere ..Bigoted hypocrites.

Everything you quoted that I said about Tinubu is true. Bigotry as a national policy was elevated to high heavens in Nigeria the moment he moved to aso rock with his right wing ethnic champions from the west and they merged with the Fulani ethnic supremacists from the Oligarch.

He can't be allowed to come and finish off what ever is left of Nigeria when Buhari leaves office in 2023. Nigeria needs healing, and Tinubu is a political cancer.

Alba3:
You people are in PDP; that's your party as well as Obi. What's stopping you from presenting him or are you waiting for APC you hate so much and where Obi doesn't belong to present him as candidate?

Ruling Nigeria is totally different from ruling a state.

Has Peter Obi or anyone representing him ever shown interest in the APC presidential ticket? You think he is that desperate to become president. The guy knows he is coming to work hard to change Nigeria. Nigeria should be begging Peter Obi to become her president.

asanausana91:
Says who? The man killed 78 youths and throw away their bodies in Ezu river.
Obi Pandora is still ringing in our ears.
Peter obi is the real devil if you are looking for one.

;



Since when did the killing of Igbo youths became a source of worry to ndi Yoruba. I thought they all deserved to die.

Meanwhile, Massob whom everyone knew never saw eye to eye with Peter Obi all through his tenure exonerated him. joke is on you.

NGpatriot:
lmao... Him Too Lai aka Oga Pandora papers..

These Igbos are madly funny.

See them. Peter Obi has not declared interest nor started his campaign but fear has gripped guys.

Okwute ndi Igbo is killing them with silence.

LegendHero:
The thief Obi Pandora will just steal Nigeria money and keep it offshore & use our money to establish companies on his daughter name.

The balless Obi Pandora that is afraid of IPOB and have failed to take charge in the SE as one of the leading politicians in the midst of all these UGM issue. A sissy like that do not have the balls to face the numerous problem Nigeria is currently facing security wise. Boko Haram, Bandit, and UGM will be more bolder with the sissy in power. He might even be crying like a puppy in his room while Boko wreak havoc.

Obi Pandora is a criminal and a killer. He masterminded the butchering of his people in Awkusu and until he explain to the whole world what he has done to get justice for the slain youths, he should be remanded in the deepest part of Kuje prison to pay for his crime.

Obi Pandora is also a tribalistic homo sapien. He does not have tentacles nation wide and he would be another nepotistic president like Buhari. He should sit his as* down in Anambla and tend to his family. He’s even a bigot religiously as we have seen cases of him campaigning for a catholic governor.

Pandora will never be president. It is a dream that cannot be achieved!!! I even like him self, he knows his limit and only the online neophytes are thinking him a lion when he’s just a small rat in politics.

A small rat yet each time a possibility of his presidency is mentioned, it rattles the camp of the bullion thief criminal. Peter have not declared even the tiniest hint of interest in the 2023 presidential race but the whole Yoruba camp is sweating in the cold. That shows how scared of him you guys are.

Peter Obi has established himself well in the psyche of Nigeria's electorate. Quietly doing his things and waiting for the right time. He is not desperate like the bullion van thief whom the whole Lagos including your family pays rent to. He governed Anambra, kept it in good shape and left without loitering around like longer throat Tinubu waiting for royalties from his successive stooges. Peter Obi is the man no brown roofer can ever hold a candle stick near him, ever.

If bigotry is a yardstick for disqualification of presidential candidates , on what basis exactly did southwest support Buhari and is still projecting Tinubu. Because both are classic example of bigoted, shortsighted fools,masquerading as statesmen.

Chapii:
We need law and order first. I campaigned vigorously against this Govt but as soon as elections are over then we wait for the next. Buhari must go is a call for Anarchy

We also need law and order in our homes. Henceforth, the punishment for constituting nuisance at home is death penalty.

You are a typical poster boy among products of expired curriculum called graduates in Nigeria. You lack the requisite tools and skills to engage your world.

Unfortunately, you are waiting for another election cycle to make another dumb choice for the future generations. Sad!

Chapii:
I am not and can never be a Fan of Tinubu, Lai or Buhari and I agree largely with the report of the Panel but the entire reportage is not balanced.

The government of the day LASG and FG (largely IG of Police) did not manage the entire EndSars protest professionally. The brute force that was used to disperse the protest at Lekki toll gate was the only option left for the Government at that point in time and these are my reasons.
1. Why is nobody reporting that the government allowed the protest to last for over 2 weeks in lagos, Abuja and several other cities meaning that the govt. recognizes the right to protest.
2. Why is nobody talking about how the protest at the toll gate gave birth to many other protest sites in several parts of lagos was making normal life unbearable for other citizens due to road blocks and all.
3. Why is nobody talking about how the protest have degenerated into a crisis situation with prison break, burning of Police stations, killing of police men, looting and destruction etc. As at 7pm of 20.10.20, over 30 police stations in Lagos was on fire and several policemen killed.
Last but not the least, the people that were at the lekki toll gate protest venue at the time of arrival of the military cannot be said to be law abiding. They were defying a government imposed curfew which is to take effect by 4pm that day.
Citizens have all right to protest but the government should also be up and doing in managing the overall security situation in the communities. My 2 cents

You are alive, therefore you are free to turn logic on its head and ask very irritating questions.

Victims of Nigeria's shambolic nationhood do not have such luxury. Most have gone to the great beyond.

Only nature and karma can give you a well deserved rebuttal for trying to justify the shooting of unarmed/harmless youths because your government felt they were constituting nuisance on their toll gate.

Next time your child create a nuisance at home, shoot him dead. If you don't have a gun, use knife and send him to early grave.

Soulless human beings everywhere.

Igboid:


That's their way. Umu ekwensu.

Truth is a rare commodity in their clime. Grown ass men changing stands and convictions like prostitutes. Look at the mess they made with journalism in Nigeria. Ndi uchu!

Seems he was not the only one that defended the coup plotters. All the Afonja elites including Prof Wole Soyinka defended then and even warned Aguiyi Ironsi against carrying out any action against "national heroes "

But the moment fierce looking Hausa Fulanis soldiers siezed Dodan Barracks, Gen. Ogundipe who was to replace Aguiyi Ironsi ran away and the ever fearful Yorubas pissed their pants and started shouting Igbo coup to please the Jihadists.

Chameleons! !

JANK23H:

Dunderhead, I'm not Yoruba.

Yet I addressed them and you jumped up in defennce. Are you that jobless?

Who care about the hell hole you crept out from, to say unfounded rubbish about Igbos. The fact that you are too ashamed to mention it says a lot. Now crawl back and probably show face when you found enough confidence to represent your inconsequential enclave.

[quote author=JANK23H post=107619750]
Dunderhead, I'm not

JANK23H:

We know how you record your successes in your entrepreneural pursuit,by cheating and lying to your customers/clients.

Mr Nwabufor said the plain truth,there should be introspection amongst Igbos concerning this matter.That isn't to say there aren't smart and good Igbos around.Being one who graduated from FUTO,I met so many very intelligent guys.The crooks however outnumber the good ones.

I have met lots of Yorubas. 80% of them won't bite an eyelid before taking advantage of you. Your are so criminal minded that a known Chicago drug pusher is your national leader and you have put up all kind defence in your bid to sell him to Nigerians.

Nigeria is notorious for Internet scam the world over. Guess who are the champions? Yorubas. You guys run all kinds of fraudulent schemes including messing with social security funds of many vulnerable citizens ftom USA to the UK. Back home in the South West Agberos determine your leadership. Have shame for once.

The difference is that your culture has normalised criminality so much and it has become a bedrock of your society.

Advocate500:
your intention and that of the author is not the same, i got your point if only he limited his opinion to the people of anambra state, i am an igboman from abia state, my people are not known for drugs and do not glorify ostentatious lifestyle .



Ebonyi and imo state dont do drugs too,reason i i said don't generalize.

Nwanne this is what they want. Divide and conquer. We are too smart for this biko.

Who gives birth to these fools. What the hell is this rubbish.

This trash isn't worth my time,honestly. Our enterprenual stories has been well researched and known across the globe. Igbo youths wake up and show up for hustle every morning in all manner of conditions across many markets, offices, factories, SMEs across the length and breath of Nigeria, Africa and the world. The successful igbaboy/apprenticeship system is a testament of the Igbo youths desire to make it legimately over the years.

Millions of igbos youths work their back off everyday at Ariaria,and many markets across Aba even Onitsha producing and exporting shoes, clothings and so many unbelievable products for sale under unimaginable conditions. Many are in Nnewi producing all kinds of motorcycle spare parts selling and distributing all over the nation and parts of Africa. There is a reason Aba and Onitsha are competing for the SME capital of Nigeria. Igbo youths started 80% of the building material and spareparts markets across Nigeria and Africa from the scratch. Markets which have become igr spinners for the places where they did these magic.

Are there Igbo youths that do not want to succeed the hard way? Yes. What is their percentage compared to the ones willing to go through the agelong Igbo culture of excellence, dignity of labour and entrepreneurship? 3% is more than a generous figure one can concede.


I don't have any problem with anyone trying to write the truth about the lifestyle of a few youths of Igbo extraction. But when your headline screams " CRIME CULTURE AMONG IGBO YOUTHS" , then you are a fool with an agenda of tarnishing the image of a hardworking population.

As for the Yorubas jumping up and down on this thread making fools of themselves. Your Lagos Ibadan media has tried this for years without success. This single story of the Igbo that you guys has pursued for years has always met a deaf audience worldwide because our many stories preceeded your infantile jealousy induced attempt at blackmail. Right from colonial days our stories have been told and retold by people who knows the art of story telling. The Igbo story is a well known story.

Fredrick Madufo just like Joe Igbokwe is suffering the effect of long years of exposure to subtle jabs and hate from igbophobic elements whom they chose as friends. Not everyone has the mental strenght to withstand constant undermining by friends who dislike your tribe but claim to love you. For you to stay long in their circle you must pick up at a point this self cruxification attitude in order to "Belong". It is a cross we have to bear as itinerant people who raise their kids in all manner of culturally toxic environment.

No election in Nigeria in recent times has raised as much hope as last Saturday’s election of Prof. Chukwuma Soludo. His victory is a loud shout over the walls. It was heard across Nigeria and beyond. And for the first time, the election of a leader of a sub-national government has caused a mild ripple across the world.

Let’s put it this way; Chukwuma Soludo is probably the first governor-elect to be congratulated by world powers. Reports say that the United Kingdom and the U.S. have both sent goodwill messages to Soludo and commended the process that gave him victory. Many Nigerian statesmen and women have sent theirs too.


Now, we all know why notable leaders are paying so much attention to Soludo’s election. He represents a true paradigm shift in our collective quest for leadership that is both inspiring and transcendental. He is the archetype of a leader who comes fully prepared for leadership. For years, Nigerians have yearned for a leader whose genius has been acknowledged by much the global authorities. Nigerians have prayed for the best amongst them to be given a chance to lead them. Nigerians have waited for folks who have shown competency to be given a chance to walk their talk. Chukwuma Soludo is that leader!

He is not alone. Besides him are Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Akinwumi Adesina, Oby Ezekwesili and Arunma Oteh. They belong to an exclusive tribe of Nigerian achievers whose competence has been widely acknowledged beyond Africa. More importantly, though, these technocrats pack an intimidating public sector experience that other achievers who have played only in the private sector do not have. And what’s more? They all left a mark of distinction in office when they answered the call to serve. In particular, Prof. Soludo left deep impressions in the Central Bank with his revolutionary reforms, his daring-do and his obsession with results. He left the bank with recognition as the best Central Bank Governor in the world, back to back for three consecutive times. That performance had left a pang of nostalgia as many Nigerians began to look forward to when this wunderkind who had excelled as governor of a bank would become the governor of a state. It was a long time coming.


But finally, the future is here for Prof. Soludo. And the world is on the ringside, watching. They are waiting to see how change begins. They want to hear the language of change. They want to know whether the first few steps will be tentative or assured. They want to feel a tremor under their feet, a drop of rain on their heads, a touch of sunlight on their skin…anything that is pleasant, anything that is reassuring. Anything that suggests that truly, change is finally here!

And so for Ndi Anambra, Chukwuma Soludo is the bridge between hope and fulfillment. They expect their famous son who had achieved the single name symbol of excellence long before he went into politics to alter the landscape. They wait for him to bring all their dreams to a touching distance. No longer will Anambra play second fiddle to any state. Soludo’s promise of a prosperous homeland must quickly leave the pages of his manifesto and begin to take shape and form. That is their silent prayer!


For public intellectuals, soapbox magicians, boardroom eggheads and corporate titans, one of their own will soon be in charge of a geopolitical space. One of their own will finally wield executive powers. His decisions will touch millions of lives and change destinies. So, his performance must make a compelling case for people with intellectual weight and proven expertise to be given a chance in political leadership. For so long, Nigeria has suffered in the hands of career politicians whose only claim to relevance is loyalty to a political party.

And finally, for many Nigerians, Soludo’s emergence represents a rupture on the political chessboard. It is a direct stab at a new political consciousness. There is hope that Anambra will be greater under him. There is hope, therefore, that other states will be more motivated to demand that only the best is good enough for them too.


After all, who loses when the best man gets the job? Nobody. Not even his opponents. Who wins when the best man gets the job? Everybody. The society. The country. Humanity. This is why they are all waiting for sunrise.

This why they are all waiting for Soludo.

You probably missed out on the masturbation spree, so you want to start your own. Oya you have the floor let it flowwwwwwwwww

rottennaija:
These ones are still dreaming. You don't dialogue from a position of weakness. The FG have all the evidence to put MNK away fro decades. So who will dialogue with them? After, his disciples and ESN are going around killing people

Then, let them commence his trial and stop hiding from their own court. If they have all the evidence they should hasten up and stop wasting our time.

Buhari simply don't know what to do with Kanu. He wasn't to keep him out of circulation till his tenure finishes. Very dumb move I must say because he is biting more than he can chew.

Correct guy. Court should settle my brother sharp sharp biko. The economy isn't smiling.

Do you want Monguno to experience seizures as he try without success to explain himself before world security and political experts. It would have ended in disaster.

There is a reason why they don't want an open trial for Kanu. Because their allegation against Kanu can not withstand the kind of defence Kanu has prepared for them. MNK plans to rubbish them in court and expose their jihadist plan to whole world.

Buhari and Fulani cabals are even afraid of their own court.

Lawyers are wicked sha. They should let this man be.

Just keep to your promise, simple. Ipob are well known to have zero patience for unserious leaders. You have gotten one more chance to take charge of proceedings in Igboland. Bleep up and hand the reign once more to non state actors.

You guys should jettison pride and selfish interest, come together and work for your people. Enough said.

Congratulations his Lordship. God bless Nnewi Diocese.
