Before you think a foreign nation will ever let you progress pass her own foreign policy against all odds?think again

Chai !!! e don happen !!!!
Buhari me love you long time and nothing do you!!!! God punish liars and haters/scandal mongers! nonsense.

Good concept.I have always wondered why governments could not initiate industries and privatize them to people.This is to jump start some industries and economy in the nation and enable the markets for them.Chinese machines could be a good start with little cost.gradually we will get there.Good idea governor and good motivation GEJ!

Ikengawo: so far GEJ. I also think he has faced the most challenges since Gowon so he gets extra credit (Boko Haram, floods, subsidy, PHNC privatization)
He's also been the least powerful of our presidents. Ministries and departments like the CBN are more independent, the Senate is more independent as it as ever been, he's not a big wig in his party and opposition is the strongest it's ever been, so dealing with the problems are harder for him.

^^^^ Don't also forget that during campaigns we were all told having a name Goodluck is divine and would bring us fortunes!!!! how come the most disasters happen during his time,excluding BH and others that are man made.This is to show you its more than a name and more to do with God and nature! You can be called anti-flood and still have floods.So the silly ads,people kept doing and making him seem divine and God favored maybe totally wrong.What people should do is pray that God guides and sets him on the right path.So the best in him we enjoy.Not lie about Gods favour on him!! courtesy of thieves and corrupt persons on his train.Who are they to even speak for God?So much for GOODLUCK!!!!

My vote puts GEJ for now.Yar'adua would have being my choice but he didn't stay long

aryzgreat: NEXT? only 5 comments but its on front page. NL! NL! NL! how many times did i call u? leave ndigbo alone!

LMAO

texazzpete: Simple solution. Arrest Uwazuruike for kidnapping.

'fierce looking men forcing others into a vehicle and driving them away' is not an 'invitation', it's KIDNAPPING, pure and simple.

^^^^^^^Couldn't agree more!!!! Do they have the right to do such.Force someone to a meeting?I though only government under certain rules can do that!
Anyways bzm and massob na politics/war for the soul of the SE and Igbos!

e remain south east,south west and middle belt!!!! I am just saying,the way things are going we are encouraging people to use violence to get attention.Thank God for getting us this solution and pray that what ever GEJ and government as a whole decide it would solve this Boko-haram and any such problem in the future.We have alot of un-attended issues of conflict in this country and people need to put this things aside and work together.Let FGN call a SNC or confab.SO things are ironed out nicely.
leaving certain issues unresolved for political advantage during elections will not help us at all.Lets resolve as much or if possible all.From using dialogue to redress (well deserved apologies or compensation).
Resolve our issues of difference/conflicts to a minimum and tackle insecurity.President GEJ if this thing happens and is tackled for good you have my endorsement for 2015!

Shows okija don dey since Imo river!Its a gift from Okija under certain terms !!!!

Finally! I urge Gowon to go promptly abeg and ensure time is not wasted.Also please the Igbos should ensure that after this is cleared they would keep quiet and accept the out for once and finally.
They need to keep quiet.As i see them losing!Also i see them blaming colonial conspiracy with Nigerian government or better still use the issue of bakassi to create doubt about the integrity of the court.

collins123: Must you quote everything?

Must you nag always?This is NL and not your exercise book!If you must know there is highlighted word "qoute" for such purpose.To allow us refer if we choose to and not if you feel someone should!!

ednut1: i wonder why nigerians reason like fishes, because he had a crash prob due to mechanical fault he shud hv his licence taken away, he is qualified to fly a jet, go nd learn how to fly it cost jst 7.5m, as for d aides dey shud neva enta plane wit him again, but like dey will hear

^^^ You most be the daft fish in question you are referring to!!!! I said IF he can maintain his licence?I am suggesting a probe of the incidence to know what went wrong and if he is found wanting they should stick to proper piloting ethics and enforce justice.Not hide under the clog of na bigman /governor,Before the man go fly another plane kill/damage or injure more people!

CHESSBOARD: Yes the same love has engulf the people of JOS his home town. May the love also reach your ppl

lol! look Mr. Man, when Gowon ruled even biafra could not break away and peace was widely enforced.Over years,same has being maintained.Up until this generation of politicians came and truncated it for political relevance and outrageous greed.This people who cut across ethnic lines,are to be blamed.Not Gowon,not Awolowo or any tribe but our political parties.Especially PDP!!!!
So What is happening in Jos now is peace and peace building.Before now Jos had crisis which is similar to the Ebonyi communal crisis,that has caused life and property QED.Nothing new or unique.Just conflict of interest between neighbors.Typical instance is in the Itshekiri vs Ijaw,muadakeke,Ebonyi etc
So there is always conflict all over the world and we are not an exception.Its just that we all need to find a collective way out of it.But surely we would.So stop counting on it as a make up for your loss during the war.We have had amany and have scaled so many including biafra.Now what remains is time and government commitment to tackle the changing environment.The FGN is learning fast and the trend is changing.So are the people.Gradually but surely Nigerians will exist and come out even stronger.While the defunct biafran apologist will remain in denial and certain decline for eternity .

Wetin Gowon do is clearly out of love for the nation,like wise the love exhibited by Ojukwu to starve his people.

Ricoluv: October 29, 2012 by Friday Olokor, Abuja.

The wreckage of the aircraft carrying Governor Danbaba Suntai of Taraba, which crashed behind NNPC Yola Depot, on Yola-Numan Road… on Friday.
| credits: NAN
FAMILIES of the injured aides of Taraba State Governor Dambaba Suntai, on Sunday, asked the government to extend same overseas treatment to their loved ones as their injured boss.
The governor and the aides were the occupants of the Cessna 208, 5N-BMJ Jet that crashed at the Yola airport last Thursday.
Some members of the families who craved anonymity told journalists in Abuja that if the governor could be flown to Germany, it showed that the government lacked confidence in the local hospitals.
They spoke their minds when the injured aides were transferred from Yola to the National Hospital, Abuja, 30 hours after Suntai was flown abroad.
“Considering the degree of injuries, I think they should be transferred overseas. After all what is good for the governor will still be good for his aides. They were in the same aircraft with the governor and I think they should be given the same treatment like him,” one of them said.
Our correspondent learnt in Abuja on Sunday that Suntai’s Aide de Camp, Dasat Iliya, had been lying unconscious at the Yola hospital since the incident that also left the governor in critical condition.
But the governor who had been airlifted to the National Hospital on Friday was early on Saturday flown to Germany for treatment while the injured aides were brought to the National Hospital on Sunday.
The Chief Detail to the Governor, Joel Dan, was also said to be having a fractured arm while the governor’s Chief Security Officer, Timo Dangana, reportedly had his two legs damaged.
Both Dan and Dangana had been reportedly taken to Jalingo, Taraba State Capital for treatment before they were transferred to Abuja Sunday night.
The governor’s aides were brought to the National Hospital in a convoy of siren-blaring ambulances at 6.40pm on Sunday.

This is not fair and i hope the aviation industry will also look into it and ascertain if the governor is suppose to maintain his license after this o!

^^^^ leave this man abeg! I mean the president,is it his person or office that detonated the bomb?A crime has being committed,he is entitled to his right of expressing his governments concern.

ichidodo: F**K YERIBA,F**K AWO-OLE,F**K GOWON.

if zik play a part then he should be charged simple!!

no point sucking up to awo frog and tinubu like they are both sango

Since the Igbos can not say they did not kill anyone outside there justifiable enemies in the war,then can they say sorry to start with,i mean to people affected by there madness? Nonsense,your stupid arrogance caused your starvation and loss of the war!!! So suck it up and shut up!

ikeyman00: @@@@hakia



and to think this fool is soliciting for Arewa rep that is full of killers and vampires i think thats laughable

upon that with all their looters under that watchful eyes of shaira living in white people country where they drink and shagg oyibo toto is still laughable

my man hmm ur head need to be checked

thank God atleast we no dey deprive them of there belongings after screwing them.Like your folks/kind screw there life and property.Typical case cynthia,Her case has finally made it to CNN,likely we maybe restricted or not trusted on Facebook again.Thanks to them fucking unparalleled crime manufacturers aka Igbo.

jason123: When will Igbos apologise to other Nigerians for killing their leaders? When will Igbos apologise for bombing and killing Yorubas in Lagos? When will Igbos apologise for the MID-WEST atrocities?

^^^^You dey mind am! They sit on there own war atrocities and continue to cry and point fingers at others claim holier!!! I say lead the way go on, just say sorry!!!

[quote author=alex_101]May the killings in plateau continue till eternity- Amen![/quote]God punish you instead and God willing the peace coming now is just a start.from the ashes of her crisis,greatness will follow.There is always a time to cry and a time laugh.Her time to laugh is coming.You Igbos can continue crying until eternity.you have proven this with your unending noise over the past.

mrczar: Common sense should aav told u that for a maan of Achebe's caalibre to av waited till long to write on 'biafra' he must hav proberly done hiz homework. Plz n plz i haate when shaallow minded peepz lik u attach sentiment to sensitive issues assuch. Be carefull dude!

^^^ Well, Gowon too has spoken suddenly after so much silence to say your fact finder is a balant ignoramus!!! Also thanks for the heads up about being careful!I mean that's because of telling your kind the facts from another angle contrary to what you want people to accept without scrutiny.Dude leave us be.If Achebe can talk so can Gowon.If you believe Achebe is saying the truth,then allow me to believe what i want.I believe Achebe is a liar and Gowon speaks the truth as it could have happened after all he took part and was a leader then.Also facts from the USA embassy records supports his claim over that of Ojukwu.Simply Ojukwu was playing sabi sabi with hungry igbo people and staring up propaganda to cause unnecessary panic!!!!Before war na football match?

Superego: Cuz Christian Boko are gonna kill innocent people?

Any Christian who kills innocent Muslims due to the crimes of Boko and any Muslim who kills innocent Christians due to the crimes of Boko-Christian youth shall all party together with Boko in hell.

^^^^ couldn't agree more! atleast all parties learn fast and in such actions the stage is clear for blood letting,If any side decides to paint it a religious thing.God help Us!

warrior01: I can understand you reason with your anus and you 'll remain ignored by me.

Don't claim what you don't know!Going by your thought,people are meant to think with there anus.In my place the organ of thought is the brain and its globally known too.Since your people do use there anus or you may have kept folks that use same i hope someday it is proven.That i am yet to come across but i can't dispute that since is likely you know people around you who do.
So Mr Anus thinker have fun and don't get angry cos Gowon spoke his own after the lies Achebe flush to the public.

Gradually but surely the truth is coming out.Even the USA has thrown more light on the matter, suggests Ojukwu starved his people out of sabi sabi!!!

warrior01: Really! Thank you sir for letting the world know your names are 'Ignoramus Yakubu Gowon. Tis now obvious that common sense is not really common.

^^^ you mean Igbos like you abi and not the world.

malele: This gowon is a fool.
He has luck am not in the military I would have taken his life. Old fool

Its not late you can join the military and do that!!! i doubt if you can succeed hater.You can do what ever you want,The truth remains alive until his time.How about the challenge he threw open to go and face justice to prove his point!! Clearly he also admits people exist to testify.Not because of people like you.Achebe remains ignorant an desperate to sell a book!!

Gowon hits Achebe on civil war, says: He wrote out of ignorance
http://www.osundefender.org/?p=50284

Gen. Yakubu Gowon, Nigeria’s Ex-president.
War time Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon, has criticized renowned author, Professor Chinua Achebe, over his new book on the Nigerian civil war, saying he{Achebe }does not know the issue he was writing about.
Gowon said he was ready to face the International Criminal Court (ICC) at the Hague on the matter if necessary.

“What role did Achebe play in the secessionist plans? Achebe must have been outside the country during the war and probably did not know what happened during the period otherwise he would not have written on what he was not sure of “, he remarked.

The erstwhile Nigerian leader, who was answering questions from journalists courtesy, visit to Governor Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu at the Presidential Lodge, Minna, Niger state, yesterday, said Achebe must have been talking out of ignorance, adding that he and the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo had no regrets over their roles in the civil war, pointing out that if there was no secession, there would not have been civil war.

“In fact , if there was no secession by the south eastern part of the country, there would have been no civil war because right from the beginning of the crises, the war would have been averted if not for the secession . It was something I believed we could have stopped,” he stressed.

Gowon also debunked the claim by the author that his administration embarked on the mass killing of Igbo, adding that the federal troops did not also use hunger as a weapon to dislodge the dissidents.

“It was the Igbo that objected to the creation of corridor for movements of medical aid and food supplies to the civilian population at the period; on this, I am ready to face the International Criminal Court of Justice at the Hague for prosecution over the role played by me during the war and, fortunately, some Nigerians are still alive to bear witness to the roles played by both the leadership of the secessionist group and the then Federal Military Government under my leadership, “the war-time leader stated.

He also recalled that during the war, a ship named “Josina” and owned by the secessionist group, which they claimed was carrying agricultural implements, was captured by federal troops and it was subjected to a thorough search and the cargo turned out to be a collection of arms and ammunition.

Gowon, who was in Minna for a 2-day prayer organized by Nigeria Prays, a group he leads, said that the massive deaths recorded by the Igbo during the civil war was caused by their own propaganda machine which claimed that the northern invaders were coming to their camps and that caused panic and pandemonium among their people because some people were trying to move from one location to the other out of fear of imaginary attacks by the so called northern invaders and without food.


^^^^^^So much for Igbo propaganda and fairy tales.The same crap that goes on and on leading this folks to spew lies about the civil war and all that is Nigeria and Nigerians.Now its become clear that there leaders starved them out of pride and also chased them up and down out of propaganda.

Abujafood: Based on his performance so far?

^^^^ Too early for that kind of judgement.Even the President has asked people to judge him at the end of his tenure not the start.Except your view is that elections are next year which i doubt.So allow this man settle in and do somethings,lets see his potential.

Finally they have gone to court we go rest.Now please someone keep us posted on the court verdict when its out.I want to laugh abeg

acidtalk: Na wa oh!

I read this and I ran to my phone to make an urgent call.

Acidtalk - Hello sir,

NDDC Chairman - Hello who is this?

Acidtalk - No sir!

NDDC Chairman - Did you kidnap?

Acidtalk - Not at all sir.

NDDC Chairman - Were you a Pirate?

Acidtalk - No sir.

NDDC Chairman - Then what classifies you as a militant.

Acidtalk - hmmm!!!!

NDDC Chairman - Get off my line. That N88billion is for only boys who have killed, kidnapped, oil bunkers and pirates in the creek and the entire South-South region. You sound too naïve and peaceful to share from the National Treasure.

^^^^ Thats the criteria o!

Awake9ja: hahaha this very serious.
