IGBOPROMISE1:
Just one forgettable interview in more than two years!? Any wonder the OP couldn’t remember it!?

Nigerian presidents (especially from 2015 onwards) act like absolute monarchs, and think it’s acceptable not to interact or be accountable to the citizens! They have little regard for the Nigerian electorate because they don’t need them to ’win’ elections.

I never said kwara is an ethnic group, or did I??
No need shifting goal post biko!

We've passed this level in our tete-a-tete!

Their case can be likened to kwara indigenes waking up to tell the gullibles that they are not Yorubas simply bcus they were carved into north-central.

richie240:
So you know that one before right??
Are the igbominas fulanis or Yorubas??


Las-las you agree that igbominas are Yorubas , na d koko be that!


Ok sir, ijebu is not Yoruba!!!
Equation balanced!

richie240:
The Yoruba ethnic group in kwara are the igbominas. In kogi state, the yoruba ethnic groups are the okuns etc.

As ijeshas (Yoruba subgroup) is to osun state, ijebus (yoruba subgroup) to ogun state, ikwerres (igbo subgroup) to rivers state, so are the igbominas (yoruba subgroup) to kwarans'

RenaissanceGuy:
OK, but just one since 2 years ago, means he's no different from Buhari. It's a big national shame.

Your link is broken. Post the direct YouTube link instead.

The President was inaugurated on 29th May 2023 which is approximately 2 years and 2 weeks ago, and has done neither press conference nor private interviews.

Some people will claim it's a waste of funds. They will say that the government is supposed to repair all the Lagos roads instead....that it's a conduit for corruption 😂😂😂😂💯

Especially if the contract is given to hitch...aaahhh...he must have awarded the contract to himself!

richie240:
sometimes Most times it's expedient not to interfere/dabble into igbo matters.

Are you aware that the president-general of Ohaneze is a fellow ikwerre-man just like Amaechi??

Don't let them use your head to play ball.
When it favours them they (ikwerres/nigerdelta igbos) will tell you "we are igbós", but when the narratives doesn't align with their aspirations, they'll deny their (igbo) heritage.

We think they are 'confused', but the contrary is the case: they are using the heads of gullible nigerians to play ball.
Their case can be likened to kwara indigenes waking up to tell the gullibles that they are not Yorubas simply bcus they were carved into north-central.

..... Why do u people think like this? If a person from KOGI bears Funmi Adebayo, what do u think her tribe would be?

Ikwerre people that keeps saying they are not Igbos are just plainly daft. Wether ure Ikwerre ,Ohafia,Abiriba, Ohagwu,Ukwuani,Ndokwa, Mbaise,Owerri,Nsukka,Abakaliki, The brella that covers all is Igbo language. The only difference is that we speak a variation of same Igbo language.

Just like how Lions,Tiger,Cheetah,Leopard,are all Cats. You can't classify them under Dogs.

Igbos Declare "Code 555" in Protest Against Tinubu's Government

In a significant political development, the Igbo community in Nigeria has initiated a movement dubbed "Code 555," signaling their strong disapproval of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration. The term "Code 555" symbolizes the five states in the Southeast geopolitical zone, each represented by a single minister in the federal cabinet, highlighting the perceived marginalization of the Igbos in national governance.


Despite Nigeria's constitutional provision for equitable representation, the Southeast, with its five states, has been allocated only five ministerial positions. In contrast, other regions such as the Southwest have received up to ten ministerial slots.


Notably, Dr. Doris Uzoka-Anite from Imo State was demoted from her position as the Senior Minister of Trade and Industry to a Junior Minister of Finance. This move has been perceived as a deliberate downgrading of Igbo representation in the federal cabinet.


Critics argue that the current administration continues the legacy of previous governments in sidelining the Igbos. For instance, during former President Muhammadu Buhari's tenure, the Southeast was excluded from key appointments, including the Board of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, despite being home to oil-producing states.


The appointment of ministers has been criticized for lacking inclusivity, with some regions receiving multiple ministers while the Southeast remains underrepresented. This imbalance has raised concerns about the adherence to the Federal Character Principle, which mandates fair representation of all regions in federal appointments.


In light of these grievances, the Igbo community, through organizations like Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has called for the immediate removal of President Tinubu. They argue that the current administration's policies foster division and threaten the unity of the nation.


The "Code 555" movement underscores the Igbo community's demand for equitable representation and fair treatment within Nigeria's political framework. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how the federal government will address these concerns to ensure national cohesion and inclusivity.

What crime did Sanwo-Olu commit?

Well, never trust the words of A D-Lord.

Sanwo-Olu should take this statement from Tinubu with a pinch of salt, so he won’t be taken unawares. If in doubt, he should ask those who came before him: where are they today? Are they still around him? The answer is an emphatic no.

muyico:
Where u want him to c that kind of money?? Don't turn Osun upside down

truefact:
You people are really despicable nd and debased. You did not blame Amechi who said he wore the IsiAgu as solidarity for Igbos, thereby recognising the cloth as Igbo cloth, but here ranting stupidly against the Igbos

This is coming after Rotimi Amaechi clarified the reason why he identified as Igbo.

DeepSight:
Helinues, Ikaeniyan0, etc what say ye?

Streetinvestor2:
They called it costal road while in reality it was just SW road most for SW president Estate development. They are now clearing forest in SS for 2027 politics that they will soon abandon.The coalition is coming. Go tell your group that SW president is not an option

franchasng:
You are wrong.

Virtually every Nigerian have been saying it that Fulani herdsmen should stop open grazing and living in the forest, that they should come to the city or town areas or even remote villages and rent house like others, buy lands and build ranch for their cattle and send their kids to school with others like every other Nigerian do.

What Nigerians are against is Fulanis living in the forest and building makeshift camps inside forests where they operate from without being monitored by the state and community securities, it's not good.



They should be expelled from the forests.


Let them go to where other people are living in the state and rent house, buy lands and build and live like others so that state and community security operatives can monitor their activities and know when they are committing crime in the guise of rearing cow abi Cattle, so don't get it twisted please

You can refer to threads on the 2nd Niger bridge.

Nothing you say will convince the naysayers.

Kudos to @justozed and @iamgbolahan for providing updates on the coastal highway.

Let’s have this bet. I’ll come there with my car. We start from the point zero of the road and drive until our odometers hit 30Km or 18.7mi mileage.
