There is a big problen with what you wrote. Before I get to it, I would like to say that it is incedible to to me as an Igbo man that one Northerner will breed so many many children, example is former VP Atiku Abubakar who married multiple wives and has 30 children. While Atiku is a billiinaire who can afford to take of his responsibilities, not all Northerners who bred as much kids as him are the same.

The North is far more imporverished than the South so who do they expect to cater for this ever increasing brood? The federal Government? With which resources? If their was no Oil money to fund certain things, would these Northerners be engaging in breeding more kids than they can afford?

Nobody is disputing that the North is strong in agriculture. They ensure that food scarcity is kept bay. But what do they really contribute to the federal coffers? How many farmers in the North pay tax from sale of their produce? What is the percentage of tax derived in the entire North (NW,NC,NE) compared to that derived in the South (SW,SE,SS)?


The truth is that the North have been a drain on the South for far too long and that is why they will hate anything about true federalism, resource control or even Biafra.

Unfortunately for the North, no paracitic relationship lasts forever. Eventually, things will have to change in Nigeria because although the South has carried the North for so long (with the tacit support of Yorubas), that is coming to an end

Isn't it ironic that the so called rich south are more inclined to financial and other criminal acts than the impoverished northerners; why are northerners not the ones being returned in caskets from Asia after peddling drugs into countries; why are they populating most international prisons and giving this country a bad name?
Most northerners can sustain themselves and their large families because the next most important requirement for survival after water and shelter is food - which most northerners can produce.

Many of you foolishly take credit for the oil revenue while looking down on northerners as lazy and unproductive; when in fact hardly any of you are involved or responsible for its production and even on closer examination you will find the SE in particular produces less than 2% (at most maybe 7%) yet they are the biggest name callers.

The question had consequently been asked; what does the SE contribute to warrant its ppl calling others names? And the answer to this had been, little, quite little; its therefore no wonder why that many of them have gone to settle elsewhere as economic refugees in other ppl's land and benefiting the most from One Nigeria; while insulting it.

So who is deceiving who; in fact who are the real parasites?

You guys should remove the log from your eyes and wake up and smell the coffee.

Advance ppl still embracing CANNIBALISM, see how a young man beheaded his own father and start eating the father's neck raw.

Im sure the north is also responsible for overdeveloping their legs.

LOL @ Yam Legs

Like seriously? All diz epistles u jst typed n no point deduced Quota system is indeed terrible. U shud go back 2 primary schl n get tutored on comprehension and hw 2 summarize essays. Wen ure done we can get back 2 where we stopped. Bt b4 then...

I sense intellectual laziness or attention deficit disorder (ADD) hence your inability to assimilate and comprehend anything longer than two sentences - oh what a shame.

Alariwo2:
It's from the savage cave people so I'm not surprised.
They share every bad attributes with Cain in the bible.. wicked, greedy, killers. Just unfortunate

Not surprised at all; everything to them is by force; even help from a relative - that should be entirely voluntary.

@bolded, Chaiii see fataLity, Kayi mata a hankali mana.Take it easy on the poor old woman. She opened thread so as to attack and insult the Northeners as usual using ethnic sentiment only for her to get disgraced and defeated in her own thread...

Nonsense!

Sometimes it is good not to take any prisoners.
She got what she deserved and it may serve as warning to others who may be tempted to try same in future.

Says an unrepentant islamic almajiri terrorist. Dubai and Malaysia are developed 2day bcuz they pay less priority to religion especially islam which they knw comes wit backwardness. Ask urslf y dubai and Malaysia which u jst named don't receive refugees frm muslim lands like iraq, syria, etc. The north has nothing to offer Nigeria xcept bokoharam, polio, almajiris and leprosy. U shud b ashamed of urslf

Another one apparently not yet weaned off stupidity and bigotry; you equated backwards with Islam; I therefore gave you examples of Islamic countries/cities which you Islamophobic bigots nonetheless flock to despite of the religion and you are here giving excuses that it was because these places are not giving religion priority - what nonsense!
Your reference to refuge issues is not worth responding to; though I am still wondering why many of you are still gravitating to even war torn places like Libya and why you are fast constituting to such nuisances to the extent that they are forced to start tightening their immigration policies against Nigerians and/or expelling you out in bus loads - even as late as this week?

Finally, pray tell; how does Islam in northern Nigeria also hold back your own progress?

diablos:
The paramount factor to northern retrogression and incurable backwardness is Islam. Be careful to point out islam in itself and not religion. Other societies and developed nations do practice religion but still advance in all spheres of life. Islam is d only apex factor that controls all other factors and has in itself ensured that majority of the northerners don't achieve their god given potentials.

That is why many of you bigots are trooping to Dubai and Malaysia etc - I guess to develop them, abi?

TimeManager:
You wonder why she so daft .... She is a copy & paste connoisseur.

She couldn't even get her copying & pasting right.

Truth is mine!

Yes indeed.
She also may be suffering from "will blow out your candle to make mine shine brighter" syndrome.
It is common among ppl with low self esteem who feel the need to bring down others in order to make themselves feel more superior and therefore better.

KevinDein:
LMAO

You are not likely to get an answer for the emboldened.

Lets wait and see; its possible she may be a masochist and wants to disgrace herself even further.

Kathmandu:
Population Population can be blessing to the Chinese but it has been the reverse to the North today. Thomas Malthus gave a doomsday prediction about Britain then on their rising population but invariably he was talking to Northern Nigeria whose population is on a geometrical rise while basic amenities and infrastructure are growing arithmetically.

The Northern population if not checked will continue to place a burden on the scarce resources of the South. The problem is that the northern population has a 80% illiterate and dependency population which is mostly unskilled.



There should be birth control in the North and also the government and wealthy individuals should invest massively in education to nip the population catastrophe that's on the horizon

Another idiotic fallacy.

Northerners are predominantly farmers and majority of that population you spoke of are actively engaged in ensuring national food security that is probably responsible for keeping some of you well fed.

How can those who contribute significantly to the GPD (which essentially is the engine that drives the economy) be considered as dependant and a burden to scarce resources - when they are in fact significant contributors to national GDP (by themselves as a ppl and from what they produce - pls don't start yapping the usual song of oil, because oil contributes less than 15% to the GDP).

BTW, if the northern population is a curse; why then are you guys going to the extremes of breeding yourselves like farm animals in various baby factories and selling your babies for as little as 20K?

Lastly, you ought to know that education isn't everything but natural intelligence is - I need not have to remind you of Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Dangote etc; all of them non-graduate billionaires and heads of their own conglomerates employing thousands of supposed educated individuals like yourself.

We are equally aware of so called educated ppl with PhDs from the south like GEJ and his wife Mama Peace and how they constituted a national disgrace and made this country the laughing stock of the international community.
They were not only a disgrace to themselves but also a disgrace to their educational institutions and other holders of the qualifications they allegedly possess - though it is not too difficult to fathom how they might have obtained their certificates.

Kathmandu:
Religion Karl Max said Religion is the opium of the masses and nowhere can this be felt much but northern Nigeria which embraced the Wahabbist Islamic doctrine that makes the citizen to depend on Allah for everything and see everything as the will of Allah.


Northern Nigeria today is so immersed in Islamic religion which has conservatism as its core value that when other parts of Nigeria wants to bring in liberalusm they shoot it down because they see it as a clash with their religion.


A typical example was the Miss World pageant that was to be hosted in Abuja but was cancelled because of Islamist rogues who rioted and it had to be cancelled and moved somewhere else. Imagine the tourism potential that was lost

What myopic balderdash.
How did the postponement of the Miss World pageant in Abuja (in fact it was Kaduna not Abuja) held back or stopped development in your hell hole region?
How did opposition to the wanton display of near naked young female bodies in the north affect your progress?
What stupidity!

mandarin:
[b]The question is, when did ABU begin its B.Sc Geography program? [/b]Is it possible to be admitted to that respectable institution with that sort of Waec result? If so, then ABU should be reclassified as a poor university.
Let the school come out with a position else, it will continue as a media war

Exactly.

All na showmanship, abeg who is he kidding?

Chai see as PMB dey collect titles from Igboland: in 2015 as OGBUABU 1('aka Lion Killer) of Aba and now as ENYIOHA 1 (aka Friend to All) of Abia.

LOL, any Igbo youth that now insults Buhari should know that he is only insulting himself since PMB is no other than their Ogbuabu 1. and Enyioha 1. of Aba and Abi respectively

xstry:
F for Igbo

Always denting our image because of their criminality and greed.

Rubbish, I didn't even bother to finish reading that diatribe; just the first few lines was sufficient enough to put the whole thing into its perspective.
Dr. Fredrick Fasehun having already lost the OPC leadership battle (to Gani Adams) is obviously seeking for relevance and was clearly speaking to the gallery in order to curry favour from his constituency towards re-gaining lost political ground as local champion.

Imagine the absurdity of calling for the arrest of members of the Hausa community even after it had been established that they were the victims (not the perpetrators) and also after the mechanic that the Hausas had supposedly have killed, thus sparking the trouble, had re-emerged safe and unscathed.

In other words he wants the police to arrest innocent Hausa residents who may have nothing to do with the issue simply to satisfy his need to balance them out with the arrested Yoruba culprits.

He was so biased that he even forgot that Olu Falae's abductors had long been tracked, arrested and publicly prosecuted

They should also check whether say no be one de say pastor wan arrange to later perform/scam miracle cure for burns during service.

Another suspected twisted story, are we to believe that the soldiers too are also Fulani therefore conspiring with the herdsmen?
All these conspiracy theories just becoming tiresome.

My only wish for you is that you become your own guinea pig. I pray that someday you will be in the wrong neighbourhood when our Northern brothers go on their bloody rampages. When they gouge out your eyes with broken bottles and leave your intestines dangling by the tip of their daggers, then we will know who the bigot is and who is saying the truth.

This is not a mere wish, it's a prayer that will come to pass in due time.

I don't care about what the op said nor about the characters in this particular story. I am only trying to highlight some of the [i] goodly [/i]qualities of our Northern brothers.

I have 3 questions for you:
a) How does your initial response relate to the topic of the thread i.e. that a traffic warden broke someone's head due to an argument?
b) How does my response to you, pointing out the fallacy that the victim was a pastor and some of your shortcomings, warrant this latest wishful attack against me?
c) Do you know that those unwarranted utterances are against forum rules, in particular provisions rules no. 2 & 3, as follows:
2. Don't abuse, bully, deliberately insult/provoke, fight, or wish harm to Nairaland members OR THEIR TRIBES.
3. Don't threaten, support or DEFEND violent acts against any person, tribe, race, animals, or group (e.g. rape).

for which you will be reported and hopefully the MODs will do the needful - at least to curb some of the excessive bigotry we see everyday.

ilynem:
Trial : answer the question in the thread link I posted. I will be so convinced to open another thread for me and u to debate.

As I have already told you before, I am not going to indulge you and derail the thread out of your ignorant desire to disgrace yourself - lastly, be careful of what you are wishing for.

ilynem:
[url][/url]
Hahahahahahahahahhhahahahaha. I don't follow prophets or the pope. I follow Jesus. I think you should open that thread cuz I'm tired of opening arguing with Muslims who run away when I back them into a corner. Or better still, try your knowledge of Islam on this thread https://www.nairaland.com/3573920/did-allah-spread-christianity and let's see if you can save your fellow Muslims from the embarrassment.

Now who is dodging; like I said, open a thread and invite me for a debate and you will not be disappointed - a trial will convince you.

AshiwajuFoward:
LMAO!! You forgot to include Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and India to the list.

LOL, at the developers.

As usual, Igbos and crime.

WriteBoy:
The Northerner finds it hard to manage his emotions. That to me is a sign of a primitive culture/civilization.

The rule of power, of settling disputes but with force, of pulling daggers at the slightest provocation, of explosive anger without just cause is the language the Northerner understands.

The Northerner is highly impulsive, he cannot mask his emotions in the face of a disagreement.

The Northerner has no compunction about spilling blood, hence the reason why he draws first blood to settle any scores.

The Northerner is a religious fanatic, religious fanaticism is a blanket term for insanity.


The Northerner will not change in the next 100 years unless there is significant culture shock in the Northerner's community. The chances of which are, slim.

The Northerner is the scourge of the Southerner. The Southerner fears his explosive anger and thus walks on eggshells around the Northerner.

Bigoted and idiotic comment.

All because someone (dishonestly) said a traffic warden in Zamfara allegedly broke a pastor's head and you start issuing a blanket condemnation of an entire region, its ppl and its predominant religion.

Well, I got news for you; the OP lied because there was no where in the story where the alleged victim was identified as a Christian, let alone a pastor nor was the religion or tribe of his attacker identified - instead, you concluded the worst and started spewing out your hatred and ignorance. SMH.

419 straight.

OBAGADAFFI:
Now we now where the Forex money is coming from

But they will still deny it anyways.

One of the uses of external reserves is to shore up your forex; it is a global practice.

Another fraudster in the making preparing to fleece the gullible.

jakandeola:
Na dem product of baby factory from east

Imagine how they would have poisoned so many innocent ppl.

ilynem:
And yet another Muslim tries to run away from the glaring falsehood of the Koran. You called us gullible. I said Muslims are more gullible cuz they swallow everything their imams teach them without proper research. I think you need the sense more.

Yes, when they tell us to eat grass, drink petrol, suck out their sperm, ladies not to wear pants in church or walk on us, kick us in the stomach, make false prophesies etc while fleecing us of our hard earned money to support their opulent lifestyle and leaving us in poverty.

Pls do not derail the thread; if you wish to challenge me on a debate on Islam against Christianity pls open a new thread dedicated for that reason; perhaps then we may learn how artificial (man-made/fake) your religion truly is - do not blame me should you want to commit suicide afterwards.

This is coming from the popular aide to the Ekiti state governor, Lere Olayinka to defend the recent certificate scandal of senator, Dino Melaye....


In His words:


Even if Dino Melaye presents TOILET PAPER as certificate, we like it like that.

After all, our President is rulling us with NEPA BILL as certificate.
