Saying Nigerians are not intelligent is a stupid statement

It is not stupid to say Nigerians are not intelligent. If they are really intelligent, it does not show on the streets of Nigeria talk less in the circle of so-called places of higher learning.

Razgas:
I was agreeing with you up to this point. Black South Africans are not particularly known for intelligence.
There is nobody who would think black South Africans are more intelligent than Igbo or yorubas

You did not show human intellect with the bolded phrase. No human being is either black or white. It is a display of ignorance to define humans with color.

By Ifedayo Peters

It is human nature to crave attention, we all want to feel seen, our presence noticed and appreciated, but it borders on virulent mental disorder to do just about anything to get attention.

This I find the case of an Arise TV interview with Reno Omokri, former spokesperson to President Jonathan, and whose appointment was prematurely terminated due to gross misconducts.

To begin with, Reno’s gimmicks are not new to me, nor do they seem too much of an aberration to behold at this point. If he could exploit an unsuspecting movement for the release of Leah Sharibu, one of the Chibok girls abducted during his boss’s tenure in office, ultimately hijacking and making it entirely about himself and book sales, there is virtually nothing I’d put beneath him as long as it makes him the focal point.

This includes possibly paying the Arise Tv Corporation to grant him time on the Morning Show so as to further amplify his meaningless Twitter rants since the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo declared to run in 2023 for the office of the President, a stunt many would agree did not go in his favour.

“Ignorance is like cholera,” Sir Muir Gray writes. “It cannot be controlled by the individual alone: it requires the organised efforts of society.”

This instructive quote got a visual representation during the interview when the seasoned Arise TV crew — Reuben, Tundun and Rufai — quizzed Mr. Omokri over his grouse with the VP’s declaration speech. What’s perhaps worse than pleading to come on a show, is coming without the required purview to address the subject of discussion.

Mr. Omokri’s own substantial argument, was that Osinbajo was disloyal to his political godfather Bola Ahmed Tinubu, oblivious to the many constitutional provisions empowering the former to exercise his rights to do so.

A line he densely regurgitated in response to nearly every question posed to him throughout the course of the torturous interview, including the one asking about his party’s preparation and his most preferred candidate in the upcoming PDP primaries.

It is terrible enough that Mr. Omokri, who had himself served for many years in the corridors of political power, could barely differentiate between a declaration speech and a manifesto — which Rufai gracefully pointed out — what’s worse is his pathological dependence on hearsays and lighthearted tweets to argue serious matters. It was easy to tell he had not read the speech he so vehemently knocked on social media.

His apparently sponsored hatred for the Vice President entirely clouded his reasoning when he spinelessly argued that Osinbajo was unfit to lead a nation simply because the man had never run a business. Reminded by one of the anchors that the VP once owned a law firm with hundreds of staff, he maintained that a law firm was not a business even after the definition of a business was spelt out to him on live TV. What then is “business-enough” in Omokri’s books?

Clearly mortified and once again looking to Osinbajo’s “disloyalty” as a means of escape, Reuben Abati saved us all the agony, calmly informing him about the Ikokus; statesman Late Alvan Ikoku and his son, Samuel Goomsu Ikoku, were political rivals. Samuel won against his father at the Eastern Regional Assembly elections in March 1957. There was simply no hiding place for Omokri at this point.

Mr Omokri who was exposed and later fired for wrongly indicting CBN Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, in a publication penned under a pseudonym which got him in another pot of soup bordering on identity theft, one would think ‘Pastor’ Omokri should be doing less speaking; rather enjoying the bloodstained proceeds from his “Fugazi” Leah Sharibu campaign, or at least attending to his lovechild.

If his representation of loyalty is cheating on his first legitimate wife and beating another to a pulp while making a public scorn of her, then we can deem it safe to without reserve, applaud Osinbajo’s disloyalty.

I do not think we will have the options to read the above crap if Osinbajo is not Yoruba.

donleo92:
waytin that man dey talk self? cos like this, am not understanding

How could you understand if you are remotely a Nigerian?

trutharena:
Below are the proof he has a house in London.

Below is the statement from OBI spokesperson confirming the fact that he has houses in London. He only came to do the rebuttal after people unravel the house. He initially lied before that he only got house in Anambra.

https://dailypost.ng/2018/10/18/peter-obi-finally-speaks-owning-houses-london/?amp=1

https://www.thenigerianvoice.com/amp/news/271732/i-bought-my-london-houses-long-before-becoming-anambra-gove.html

Check his tweet himself lying he got no other house outside Anambra own. This man is a hardcore liar.

When did Gregory Obi become Peter Obi? Who would want to spend more than half million British pound on row houses?

How on earth would this dumbass punk be elected to any political office Nigeria? Anyway, Nigeria is not called basket of fools for nothing. A person can never tell.

gift2xl:
Gibberish...
He should be intelligent to know that it's not the turn of the north to be president.
Common sense.
They are all betrayers

There is no room for the bolded in the jackass. He forgot Nigeria practices quasi-democracy therefore the outgoing president does not have the power to hand over power to any person of his/her choice. What a goon.

2023 Election:

My MISSION for Nigeria is to fully complete every projects Buhari and I started -Vice-President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo

…My intention is to run for the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, My administration will provide an excellent environment for businesses to thrive

*‘President Muhammadu Buhari and I have together worked through some of the most difficult times in the history of our nation but we have remained focused on securing the country, providing infrastructure and growing our economy’
*‘In the past seven years, I have served as vice president under a true Nigerian patriot, a servant of the nation in war and peace and a man of integrity’

I say shut the hell up, punk. You are for Yoruba and only Yoruba. Nigeria is not Oduduwa Republic.

Rollsnjaguar:

Why didn't the guy write about Buhari bigotry

The fool is not up for any election.

MadamVanessa:




Any crime committed in East now is done by ESN according to some idiotic uselesssss foolish myopic nonentities parading on nairaland.

The goons are one reason Nigeria is called basket of fools. I hate to remotely think Nigeria is country and the dumbass bunch can pass as citizens.

Unfortunately, Peter Obi hails from Anambra State.

ETHICALLYrlght:
Her Resume is as impressive as her appearance.

I support women in politics and wish her well!

Simply put, beauty and brain.

I guess this dump truck has too much to drink.

DitariDisciple2:
When did we enslave you guys most?
Before the British came or after they came?

Only delusional fool can have such stream of thought. The slave business was between European and Igbo slave traders.

DitariDisciple2:
Worworboy come and see this.

Its Wakirike not Okrika the corrupted version.

The present Ijaw National Congress Vice President Sir Atamuno A Atamuno is from Okrika.

You are just a delusional so-called Ijaw. I had wished you wrote Sir Atamuno A Atamuno is from Wakirike instead Okrika.

DitariDisciple2:
Average Ijaw don't see Igbo as brother.

Of course, why would an average Igbo person see Ijaw as a brother unless those Ijaw whose mothers hailed from Igbo land. The progenitors of the so-called Ijaw were from Akwapim-Togo region via British (colonialist) porters.

DitariDisciple2:
Turn it any how you want IBO means to vote in Yoruba language.

Go and claim it physical.
Then you will be lynched.

Why would you introduce Yoruba into this discussion? Yoruba means to beg for wealth in Igbo. Ama Onye Anabo is Igbo so is Amaikiri. What is Okirika or Okrika in Ijaw?

DitariDisciple2:
If in believe himself do it physical no time to waste on him.

Amayanabo is their king in Opobo just like other Ijaw subgroups eg, Kalabari, Okrika, Ibani, Nembe, Brass, Okpoama etc
Never ever Eze.
They are in all Ijaw sociocultural organizations but never in one IBO own till today.
We believe in physical claims this time not online own.
We will delete your posts if you cant come and say that lie physical.

Ama Onye Anabo (He whose compound is cleaned) has no iota of meaning in Ijaw. In those days, the boat people will come to clean the compound of the Ichie who lived on the land. This same goes to Ama ikiri hence Amakiri which the Ijaw turned in Amachree.

Bastardlyrich:
Bonny and opobo belongs to ijaws.
I m a firm believer of love between tribes in ss/se region.
But these does not mean I should support igbos on taking any of our land.
Ijaws own these places,yes is true they sometimes speak Igbo in some parts but that is because ijaws did lots of trade and intermarriage with igbos for years.
Even my own community speak ijaw and Igbo.
So our Igbo brothers should take note.
God bless the already blessed ss/se region.
God bless Biafrans.

When did boat people start to own lands? There are people who live a on a land as tenants. We know them and where they settled.

DitariDisciple2:
Till today not even one person in Opobo answer Ibo name.

You spew craps with silliness.

DitariDisciple2:
All your lies and frustrations end online.
I pity those who take ibo lies on naira land concerning Bonny and OPOBO serious.
When I travelled to Bonny last month for the first time that's when I discovered that Them fit Lynch anyperson who call them ibo.
Only bonny clan have over 70 villages and settlements under it without adding Opobo own.
You will never see even one person from bonny and Opobo answering IBO name.
They answer boma, tamuno, ibiwari, ibimina, etc.
All these are Ijaw names and they are under all ijaw sociocultural organizations till today without even belonging to one IBO own.
May God bless all Ijaws.

What Igbo lies are spewing about on naira land concerning Opu obu (Opobo) and Ubani (Bonny)? Ichie Obonmanu hails from Ubani (Bonny) and publicly proclaims Igbo ancestry. There are goons who tend to deny their ancestry in Ubani (Bonny).

anselem87:
who told you that people are no longer using bamboo how can you use bamboo in such high rised building instead of metal scaffolding

Where did you remotely pick up the crap in bold letters? My previous never suggested in any manner that people are no longer using bamboo as scaffold.

Soludo's administration shall be a momentous failure.

Blablamalala:
So what are you saying in essence?

Virginity means absolutely nothing when I decide who to marry.

Awkabigboy:
Who made you the chairman of the committee of essence of marriage , what do you even know about marriage . You're myopic dude, seems u were raised by a single moda and got hurt early in life

The only myopic goons on this discussion are twisted stiffs who think morality is all about sex. Anybody who rocks the crap called virginity is delusional. In one of my posts, I iterated not to deal with hangers-on who dwell on triviality. There is nothing such as "Single Mother". It is either married with kid or not married with kid. My parents are still married till date.

.

Awkabigboy:
Ashawo sef de talk, no one stopped u from marrying ashawo. Why the heavy pain your experiencing, lol virgins are the cleanest and the best

Just talk true, will u accept an old ricketty benz over a tear rubber? If no then stop ranting

I have never remotely indicated being pained because virginity or lack thereof. Which marital rites stipulated a woman should be virgin before a marriage is consummated? The essence of marriage is procreation not virginity test.

Johnnycastro18:
apart from the double belly, she is manageable nah

How manageable with the so-called virgin? I am not interested with the delusion of girl/lady who comes across as virgin.

osinbanjoisaliar:
Wetin you dey talk. Na doze ones with Belle sweet pass. You neva wakis big girl before na why you dey talk like diz. Inside dem be like ognono soup. E dey hard to see one wen inside be like desert. And na dem like bed wakis pass. Just try am and you no go Eva wan kpansh lepa skeleton 101 again

I thought this your "Wakis" is about pleasure instead of torture. In fact, you sounded very amateurish with the above post. Big girls constitute serious work on bed. I am not in bed to load a tipper with sand.

LeoDeKing:
First, there are two regions and 6 geopolitical zones in Nigeria, not 6 regions. Go to school, you say school na scam, rather, you prefer following lamidi kwanu upandan.

Secondly, you need to be learned before making a demand so you won't be misconstrued, because you obviously don't understand nadda about what a country/nation is.

Thirdly, when was this demand for referendum made and to whom?

Lastly, don't even mention the ipob pigs presently having good time stealing, robbing and raping in the name of one useless struggle. Those ones are stark illiterates who can't see beyond their nose.

Mr. School Teacher with Oluwole certificate, Nigeria never had two (2) regions. In 1954, Nigeria was divided into three (3) regions, north, west and east. Then in 1963, Nigeria was divided into four (4) regions, north, west, midwest and east.

Johnnycastro18:
The babe fine sha

I guess you are being sarcastic. I do not find fineness in her with double belly.
