Omoluabi16: We will not only blame kanu, but blame shettima, his ACF cohorts and the northern mob who are willing tools of violence. When has violence ever benefited anyone in this country? jobless hate mongering i***ts.
The North has been unmasked. They used to employ violence to have their way in Nigeria. But Boko Haram has shown that they are afraid of death too else why will the military be up there defending them and setting up IDP camps. If at any point other ethnicities pick up arms against the Fulani marauders, the nonsense will stop overnight. Fighting back is the best action against a bully especially a wanna-be bully at that. /
brightalo17: How going to Lagos state can be compared to what you just said?
Going to Lagos for rally will definitely cause chaos and a very big opportunity for both jobless Alayes,Igbos and even hausas to loot and damage people's hard earn properties,life will also be lost which majority of Ibos will be the victim. Is not as if Biafra will be achieved immediately after the Lagos trip . Now tell me how those affected negatively by his visit will take the agitation?
Is Biafra and object that is situated or stored in Lagos state which he is going to pick up and bring back to the east?
Whoever supporting Kanu to go for any rally in Lagos is an enemy of the igbos based and making there living in Lagos state.
It will be idiotic for Kanu to go to Lagos or the North with his campaign for Biafra. Do I support Biafra? No! The problem everywhere lies in the DNA of all blacks all over the world. We are inherently born to oppress our people who are less privileged that our current situation. Why wars? Why online show offs? Just to prove that others are beneath us. I always expect nothing progressive out of the black race and history proves me right.
Charly Boy tried mobilizing Nigerians and failed. Tuface tried and chickened out. While I don't identify with Kanu's rhetorics and ideologies, I respect his courage. Many people criticizing him cannot even air contrarian opinions in front of their LG chairpersons. But then, the internet is a leveller--free keyboard, unfiltered opinion under the anonymity of the internet and tigers are born. \
In Igbo land, you could be satan himself but as long as you build roads, house and other social amenities for the communities, you will be transformed to a saint with people willing to kill at the mention of your name. It is every where.
Usually the most philanthropic people are the most dangerous ones. Pablo Escobar, El Chappo Guzman, 419ers, etc seem to use philanthropy to appease the gods for their sins. I bet you the community were singing his high praises until it came down to some of them getting caught in the cross fire. Most communities have one and they are known. Some of the things one sees in Nollywood movies are real life events. Everyone wants to the new eze ego of the community. The igwe, the church and the communities usually throw caution to the wind. Oh well...
AlanTuringAI: So they don't have interest in busting drug dealers? Stop putting up weak and useless defences. If they had written Igbo language alone, your likes would have filled this thread with different chest-beating comments insulting Yorubas of how they are inferior. It's the other way round now, and you're writing this rubbish. Does it make any sense to you at all?
This is why I suscribe to Amadioha: Biafran empire.
Only after death shall we know which one is real. Otherwise, they are all gimmicks to extort money from the masses and wire back to Rome, England and Saudi Arabia respectively. The income from tourism and pilgrimages alone can sustain some countries. \
PDPGuy: But there is no law barring private individuals partnering with the govt in building court houses. From the article, it was clear that the Dr, Anambra state govt and the state judiciary were informed about the project, and even gave the necessary approvals.
It's the unfounded ego of the state chief judge that is the problem. If he had issues with the project, he could have sought to stop it during construction or before construction started. Someone's hard-earned money cannot just go to waste like that. It's inhumane.
The point is that no such thing should exist in the first place, the brouhaha in Maduka's town aside. State governors can barely control the police in their respective states because the Federal government understands the risk of concentrating such power on state governors. Imagine a private individual usurping the duties and responsibilities of government. It is because of such inherent abuses that governmnent proclaims that all are equal before the law. Will Maduka flout laws? Who knows? But it is a dangerous precedent to set.
Nigerians love free buzz that they fail to recognize where to draw the line. It breeds anarchy if unchecked. Not that Nigeria is any less chaotic already. Remember Evans the kidnapper? If he walks from his case, don't be surprised to see him move with a retinue of police escorts. Is that a sane society? Some see Kanu as an enemy of the state. Yet you see him with police orderlies. Nigeria is a crazy place meant for only mad people. Crazy and unimaginable things are seen as normal in Nigeria and the few that bats eyelids are termed enemies of progress even though the whole nation is retrogressing in a stealth rate.
Lagos roads, especially, can be specially tricky. One moment, your car is fine, another, it is scratched. However, does all of these mishaps require a repaint? Well, you may want to grade your options after reading this.
1. Car Damaging The process of stripping( removing the car paint) the original paint is not car-friendly and the entire process is kind of damaging to the metal of the car. It can destroy the body of the car that no amount of paint may resolve it.
2. Bad Quality of Repaint Companies like Volkswagen go through an eight stage process to ensure the color quality of the car doesn’t fade , but when you will get it painted outside by the local service centres , you will not get the quality. It is quite sad to see a car repainted loose its colour quickly. A repainted car never gives back the initial feel and look of the car.
3. The sad part of colour options People sometimes pick colour for repaint because it is catchy. This can be the biggest mistake in car painting. The repainting of a car is greatly discouraged because some colour repaint can do more bad than good. For example, a car repaint from white to black.
A black car will do the following • Not only will the paint heat up to the temperature of the sun, but will cause the interior to heat up proportionately along with it. • Black shows every nuance of paint flaws. • Black car paint is the hardest color to keep clean. It is advised that one keep to the manufacturer colour of the car.
4. Risk Car stripping can sometimes be as dangerous as surgeries. Apart from the fact that they may destroy the car or make it look worse, it can make the car more dangerous to drive. Car repainting may, for example, leave the unbolted panels during stripping unbolted. This can affect the performance of the car generally. And can sometimes be quite dangerous as important part of the car may be left unbolted. If your car is stolen, you may not be able to easily claim ownership. This is because your manufacturer’s colour is the registered colour. If the car is repainted and not duly re-registered, the risk of totally losing the car is pretty higher.
5. It Reduces the Cost of the Car If you are thinking of reselling your car, it is advised that you avoid repainting it. The repaint would reduce interest and cost of the car immediately the buyer finds out about the repaint.
Cutezt: Employment security is a honest to goodness concern, however there are employments that are staying around for some time.
Amongst globalization and advancing technology, many employments are rapidly getting to be out of date so these employments may come as uplifting news for individuals. Luckily, similarly the same number of employments are being made as are being demolished, especially in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and math). For those of you who like your present place of employment, these are 25 occupations that are staying around for some time.
20 - Paramedic - well, anything health is going no where as at this time.
No doubt that most of our lives is slowly moving to the internet, and as such, there are many threats online, the importance of this job can not be overemphasized as even nations have a cyber space team in their armed forces, similarly, the graphics designers, computer engineers et all, are going nọ where.
18 - Stand Up Comedy
With all the tension in the country, people need to chill out a bit and laugh, that is where the comedians come to play.
Lets be honest, how many of you will call mtn and follow the self service options? No one I guess, we all keep pressing "0" until we talk to a human, Nigerians have no time for machines.
Who in his right senses will give a robot his head to get a nice haircut or a nice hair? We will probably be too scared to do that, people need to look good, and as such, this job is sticking around.
8 - Military men
As long as there is more than one person on planet earth, someone will always want someone dead.
7 - Fitness Trainers
Want to get that "RMD's" hot bod even in old age? Well, you probably will have a tough time doing that without a fitness trainer, well except you have been into it before.
All thanks to advancement, the world as a whole is getting richer, people are getting more money (even tho reverse is the case in Nigeria) and these people needs to spend their money, so...
/ I wonder who is blessing all the successful and wealthy atheists.
Giving better life to pastors and their families does not in any way equate to giving to God.
Only an irredeemable idiot will trek to church to give away his or her 10% to another human who drives a Rolls Royce under the guise of giving to God. SMH. The level of stupidity is unimaginably astonishing. \
Yyeske: Seems you've been in Mars since, why was nnamdi kanu in the US begging for money to buy arms?
/ Kill Kanu for soliciting for arms. Grant amnesty and pay off ND militants for engaging the military. Grant amnesty to Boko Haram and rehabilitate them for bombing and maiming the military and unarmed civilians.
He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. I guess the Nigerian state can nail Kanu on the cross for spreading the so-termed gospel of hate. Just peruse through the tribal bigotry on nairaland. Only a few folks are innocent of the same "crime" they accuse Kanu of. What again is NCAN? \
Alcatraz001: See them!!! Yeye! We ain't spoiling for war. All we are saying is go home and develop the east! Finito! You insult everybody and expect love in return? Where do you get that? All bridges have been burnt by the Igbo! Where do you start from. The cycles of hate continues and Nigeria will go burst soon.
No one is praying for war. Some Igbo people are clamouring for secession and instead of calling for a roundtable discussion to address their grievances, your kind misinterprete such calls as an act of war. No where was it stated that IPOB is stockpiling alms. It is the Nigerian side that keeps talking about war. Well everyone is resourceful these days. Is there any guarantee that you or/and your family members will not be killed if war eventually starts? Kill Igbo, kill Igbo. Well everyone bleeds and dies. If you think it is about Igbo blood alone, dream on. Some of you are squaring to occupy properties you couldn't build in triple your lifetime. It ain't gonna happen. Get your lazy behinds up and go fend for yourselves. 2017 and 1967 are not and can never be the same. If you don't like Igbo people building your cities, then stop selling your birthrights. No Igbo man held a gun to your head to sell. \
Don't cry for any Igbo person killed in the North.
Agha akara aka anaghi eri ngwuro. So osisi nuru na aga egbu ya kwuru.
Thinking of war, the North is geographically disadvantaged. Igbo and SS chasing them up from the south while Boko Haram is chasing them down from the north. Where will they go? If ND militants can access 50 cals from the porous borders, will Nigeria military fight with their outdated AK47s? A lot of countries have oil in their backyards so their is no incentives to assist Nigeria like in the 60s. I hope Nigeria is not relying on highly demoralized military that cannot fight ragtag Boko Haram food soldiers. That's assuming that the Nigerian battalion that ran into Cameroun ever came back. Push comes to shovr, a lot of you will be drafted to fight the war. Then you can put your gragra where your mouth is. \
/ Assuming Nigeria is a corporation, will the Board of Directors let incapacitated CEO be in the helm of affairs?
One senile old man is selfishly taking the country to the grave with him. The silence of the educated majority is deafening. Black people sef! Disgrace to humanity.
goldbim: Omg!aside the medical and financial assistance,she really needs moral support..i pray help locates her soonest and people around her will pay attention to her..she's fighting a big battle for her to put up such post..!
/ Nigeria is a country with no system in place. Every government is personalized. DSS has turned to Daura Secret Service that is only effective when Buhari is around. All these calculated moves by DSS is on the assumption that PMB may not come back alive. Typical Nigeria, after each administration, the hunters become the hunted. The DSS fellas are aware of this and are threading cautiously. DSS will not hound or arrest anyone in Buhari's absence. That's the glaring fact. //
Obi1kenobi: You're spewing irrelevant shiit. It's a simple question: how did Kanu earn a living in the UK?
/
Since you lived with both of them, tell us.
No hearsay.
Let's for the sake of argument assume that Kanu was a security guard in UK, how does this affect you? If you believe Kanu is not doing things the right way, feel free to start your own movement. You have one head like Kanu. You shit on his movement but you are not willing to lift a finger. Oh I get. There are churches where you run to pray with hope that Jesus will come down from heaven to save you. God helps those who help themselves. What are you doing to help yourself?
Every great nation today fought for freedom and justice. The problem with Nigeria is because the phantom independence and freedom were handed to them without war but with special arrangements that favour the masters. This is the main reason Nigeria takes independence for granted--it came too cheap.
Every culture (except the Asians for obvious reasons) tries to answer this question. Yet no definitive conclusion. It is a matter of choice--some like it big while some like it average.
It is not the size of the dog in a fight but the size of fight in the dog. You can give the best tools to a bad workman and he will still find ways to quarrel with it. Some have good tools but cannot understand the owners' manual. Some have mediocre tools but with experience they can take her to El dorado. Just saying...
Obi1kenobi: I gree. Now tell me how Nnamdi Kanu earned a living in the UK.
I am judging based on available evidence without relying on insinuations, rumour or gossip.
We know Kanu. We know Joe. I don't know who is hated more between Joe Igbokwe and Gov. Rochas Okorocha. The mention of Joe or Rochas is usually followed by a barrage of insults and curses. Go figure! /
Nagisa: Former Governor of Rivers state, Rotimi Amaechi has disclosed why he lost $39 million to fraudsters in Rivers state.
The Federal Minister of Transport who at his Senate hearing famously uttered, “I have never taken bribe in my life but if they send a girl to you and you sleep with the girl and do that favour, that means you are corrupt”, said that he lost the money because he was only human and was learning on the job.
Guardian reported about the fraud in 2015, After spending N8.54 billion on a proposed 1,000-bed Adolphus Karibi Whyte Specialist Hospital, the permanent secretary in Rivers State Ministry of Health, Somiari Harry yesterday said there is no physical structure at the site of the project.
Vital documents such as a memorandum of understanding and shareholders’ agreement between the state government and Canadian-based Clinotech Diagnostic and Pharmaceutical Limited, which received the $39.2 million to build the contentious hospital are said to be missing.
Harry told the Justice George Omereji-led commission of inquiry investigating the non-execution of the 15-storey Adolphus Karibi Whyte Specialist Hospital after the payment of $39.2 million (equivalent to N4.6 billion in 2008), to Clinotech, that besides some parts of prefabricated buildings littering around, containers and other equipment, there is nothing at the site of the proposed hospital to justify the huge amount the state government paid to the contractor.
According to him, the concept was for the hospital to provide world-class medical services in Port Harcourt. He said the estimated cost of the project was $98 million and based on this a memorandum of understanding and shareholders agreement were signed by the parties, which required that the state government would provide 40 percent of the funding, while Clinotech would provide 60 percent.
According to him, state government paid off its own 40 percent equity valued at $39.2 m (N4.6 billion) at the time to Clinotech, which in turn failed to contribute its own counterpart funding for the project.
Amaechi is seen in this video explaining how his learning on the job cost the people of Rivers state $39.2 million.
Obi1kenobi: Interesting. I never knew working for the government makes one a "slave". So basically, millions of civil servants all over the country are slaves. Infact, any employee in the private sector is a slave too. So is any salaried worker. Even Dangote who is beholden to government patronage is a slave. Basically, except Buhari, we're all slaves. IPOB logic for you.
At least Ogbu sounds educated, even if his ramblings are irrational horseshit. Can't say the same for our IPOB charlatan leader. They might actually sound more sane and less like deranged touts if they had men of intellect leading the movement.
Now you know. Civil service in Nigeria is slavery. You work and hardly get paid. You retire and hardly get your pension. Even when paid, they arbitrarily deduct taxes that they don't remit to the government. Yet they are expect to sow uniform clothes, form associations and sing praises of the government.
How much worse do you want it before you acknowledge the slavery? Physical or psychological chain, chain na chain.
