Padipadi:
Tell Nigerians where you have involved yaself in regional politics.

I should bring my portfolio to Nairaland?
Lol.
Try harder my friend.

Padipadi:
Hoebidiénts can be assh0les but you sef too get issues with their region as they don't deserve to talk.

I'm presently sitting with my lgbo friends, we have been together for decades and they understand their region so well.
They know what their people are and never hide it.

Padipadi:
I am also from the north. Ya enemies are terrorism and poverty. Have you freed yaself from it? See how you played yaself now.

Trying to be half smart.
You thought I am a Yoruba, now you realize I'm not a Yoruba and you got confused, pàthètic.
Last time I checked, insecurity is rife in ur region alongside stampede.
Solve ur problems instead of talking about others.

Bendeco02:
If you want to be addressed in a gentle manner, then stop involving full tribe when replying an individual in a faceless forum.

Other things you typed down here is non of my business. As you attack full tribe then be ready for stray bullet.

Direct your anger to the individual next time

U are the one dealing with anger.
If something is making u angry, take ur sh!.t to where u will see ur level.
I addressed the full tribe because it's same tribe that depends daily on products from Benue and same tribe are the ones that keep taIking trash about Benue not farming.

Padipadi:
You should ask yaself the question

I'm from the north, I'm not enemies with myself, seen how u played urself now?

Bendeco02:
Where is your anger coming from?

You don't have sense

Even in Borno, there are still farmers there and it doesn't change the fact that it's risk

The farm activites has reduced in Benue state unlike before. That's the fact

Are you staying in all parts of Benue?

The guy you quoted, am yet to see the identity that made him Igbo.

Don't allow your emotions control you. Do you know howmany attack and killings that has happened in Benue rural areas this year alone?

That you never met bad or evil people doesn't mean they don't exist. Leave Abuja and relocate to one of the Benue rural area then for your farming and stop making noise alaye

First and foremost, u are a f00I for addressing me the way u did.
If u don't have sense, try to understand the beginning of an argument before jumping into it, not every discussion is meant for children, he knows that I know that he's an lgbo, if u can't find anything that identifies him as an lgbo, that clearly shows this discussion is above ur wits, run along and look for ur level.

Mrfeel:
I don't understand why you are ranting on something you have little knowledge of you think I'm talking out of hate for benue people which is far from it , I know benue more than you will ever know


Zaki biam is not what it used to be, I'm not saying yams are not sold there, I'm saying not like before when 200 to 300 trailer load of yams left Zaki biam market on a daily basis ,
the late Terwase Akwaza aka GANA who terrorized 3 local government , Katsina ala , ukum and logo destroyed that market they killed alot of traders and traditional chiefs not just in ukum where that market is located but in logo and Katsina ala too , igbo trader who where the major traders in that market some were killed some were kidnapped for ransom most of them relocated to gboko after that, even though GANA was killed by the army his boys are still operating in those areas, alot of soldiers were deployed there those solder's starting shooting young men anyhow accusing them to be members of GANA group or informate , majority of the young men who were great farmers left ukum because of that


Besides that the culture of farming in benue state itself is not like it used to be in the 90s or early 2000s it has changed especially amongst the Tiv young men , most of them prefer to ride okada for a living these days, some of them prefer to travel out of benue to work on other peoples farms or Coco plantations in Yorubaland , Benin or taraba state they sign yearly contracts and are paid at the end of the year, some of them cross into Cameroon by foot from abande in kwande local government

I have no reason to hate benue people, I was born and raised in Tivland in the village , Tiv language is my first language, I speak Tiv more than igbo or English, my mom is Tiv

You know Benue more than me whereas I have part of my roots in Benue?
When I personally have farms in Benue, I do alot of agric business with Benue, you possibly can't know the landscape better than me.
I have been to all 23 Local govt in Benue repeatedly for that matter.
I like the fact that you have started fine tuning your argument, unlike your initial statement that said "...farmers no longer go to farm...", "...Igbo traders no longer go there..."
These were your statements from your reply to someone who said Zaki Biam is still the largest yam market in the world, I replied you based on that not based on "hàtè" theory like u are insinuating.
It has always been known that the Tiv man always travel and return to his farm when the time is due, all what u listed are not new occurrences and the drop in farming in Benue State is not because of insecurity rather lack of capital as farming is becoming more expensive than it was in the 90's and 2000's.

You can't stay here and pretend that Benue is no longer farming when we all know that the SE and part of SS depends heavily on their products to get by.
Traders from different countries like Cameroon, Benin etc still come to buy stuffs from Benue even garri.

masseratti:
lolzz don't mind the stupid This day journalist...is it not apparent to the journalist that Nigerian Government has no interest hosting anyone on his soil to topple a foreign government?

Nigerian govt can't chase it's own interest because a beggàr country like Niger will get offended.

boxypane:
You lack knowledge on regional and international politics. I'd advise you read the article before commenting. It should not be about sentiments all the time.

I have been more involved in regional and international politics than you will ever be my friend, I'm not slowing down in it them rather I'm growing in it.
Someone who hasn't been involved in local politics is trying to talk to me about regional and international politics, the negative effect of social media.
I'm sure you don't even know what's involved in Local govt politics yet you are talking about regional and international politics.

tungamaje:
What I mean is that despite the so called millions we spend to build the infrastructures to boost tourism, foreigners haven't been coming. But you compared a saner South Africa to Nigeria where even villagers are taxed so as to raise money to settle bandits and kidnappers. while you would be holding your breath while traveling because those men can easily come out of the bush and take you. So first sort insecurity problems before investing in white elephant projects

First and foremost, we haven't spent any millions on tourism, we basically let our tourist attractions sight rot, that's what is kiIIing our tourism not insecurity, if South Africa where single mothers sleeping in their homes are not safe can have tourists, then we can, the difference between us and them is because they have infrastructures and services around tourist attractions unlike us where places like Yankari game reserves, Ikogosi spring, the beach in Akwa Ibom, the hills of Enugu, cattle ranch in Calabar etc have poor services.
The problem is poor services and infrastructures not security, try rest.
If South Africans see u calling their country sane country, they wiII know u are really daft.
Every sh!.t happening in Nigeria happens in South Africa, even in ur house, u are not safe in South Africa from village to cities, leaving your home in the early hours of the day is a huge risk in SA yet tourists go there.
I know you haven't travelled before to see things for yourself, it was folks like u who were projecting Ghana that they had 10 years of no blackout whereas they were battling with electricity issues, now you have started with South Africa.

Yesterday, someone who returned from Portugal was Iying to a group of young men that there's abundant job in Portugal whereas the reality is that Portuguese are leaving their country in search of jobs and better life in other countries in Europe.

sapele914:
Obidient Eyepobians are the worst hypocrites, go and ask Bobloco, Racoon, Kukutente23, Bigkoko, MrVitalis, same things just to name a few that criticized President Buhari for having a cordial relationship with Niger, why all of a sudden the same Niger dey despised barely 2 years ago, all of a sudden they love the country is now their darling?

They switch goalposts based on sentiments, nothing else

Mrfeel:
Go and read my first comment that's the situation of Zaki biam now, the once biggest yam market in Nigeria

Tomorrow being Monday, yams will still be sold in Zaki Biam market and sent to SE and Port Harcourt, u lots talk too much.
It is only lgb0s that talk about Benue without any idea.
U lots depend on akpu from same state, yam, oranges, even potatoes from same Benue and several other crops, somehow, u are all still deluded that farmers are not going to farm in Benue State.
I'm currently in Benue State, few days ago I was in Makurdi, moving from parts to parts, I will go through Enugu to Anambra to Imo and other parts down to Rivers before returning back to Abuja.

Osariemen12:
Same people like you clapped Buhari when he took those steps.

I don't remember clapping when Buhari took those steps, I criticized the steps because they are not profitable for us as a country, same I was against the idea of Tinubu using miIitary force on Niger, I'm not like u lots who clap for everything ur messiah does.

Padipadi:
All you APshit rodënts are mad. You should focus on ya enemies from north.

U have eñemîes in the north?

Countries are looking for profitable relationships, Nigerians are talking about relationship with a liability called Niger.
If not that the average Nigerian is so biased for tribal and religious reasons, I thought Buhari was àbûsed for "wasting public funds" on Niger?
He was criticized for the Maradi railway every single opportunity, today, same sentiments has blinded the average Nigerian and all of a sudden, Niger is now a country we should be pursuing peace with like a relationship with them has ever been profitable.

Mrfeel:
Then you have no idea of what is happening in Zaki biam

Tell us what is happening in Zaki Biam.
I'm waiting for you.

10thTenthMan:
“…that benefit from….”, please.

The hotels and resorts and clubs that make significant benefits and feel the real positive impacts are. They are connected one way or another to the seat of power in some way. Either through friendships, bribes, other form of networking.

Yes. Your currency has been scare mostly every December /towards the end of the year since 3-4 years ago, especially after the new naira notes saga. Even the dead are in a place but are not conscious of the things around them. Zombies too. The uneducated and unenlightened may also be too stupid to notice or to daft to comprehend. So for those who do not notice, it could be due to many factors.

And to those that feel they need to willfully deny facts because “THEY WANT TO BE PATRIOTIC”, it is a fact that Nigeria is a wonderful place. An enjoyable place. But has its undeniable issues and challenges like everywhere else that require progressive acknowledgement of the issues and fixing these.

Yes o, I must write even when I don’t have anything to write because I CHOOSE TO. Nothing anyone can do about it. If anyone thinks that he/she can do anything beyond online insults then I quadruple dare anyone to the beginning of their ancestors to try to do something. It will and can only end in online insults and name calling. Nothing more. This is my own contribution to the matter.

"...has been scarce mostly..." Thank you.
"...too daft to comprehend..." Thank you.
Use three dots for ellipsis when writing an incomplete statement.

Lesson: when trying to correct English Language, make sure you are flawless, but you are terribly flawed, even your punctuation is pathetic.

Back to the issue, seems the dead are more aware of their environment than you are, the unintelligent and unenlightened actually seem to understand the environment more than you do, creating lies that are non existent about cash being scarce every December, change of naira note occured last year 2023 and December last year didn't experience scarcity of cash.
I see you are not even aware of your environment that's why you don't have the slightest idea that old notes projected to be phased out this year all these while is being withdrawn from circulation and to make that possible, cash were not released to make those keeping stash of cash of bring out so it can find it's way to the bank.
I'm sure you are alive, intelligent and informed that you don't even know about this.
The only thing you lots are good at is talk without thinking.
First and foremost, nobody actually cares about a IowIife like u, that part is established, maybe you should double dare ur ancestors to give you a better life so u can be sensible at least, that's for starters, do I actually have to remind you that not all name calling ends online?
So many are in the police net languishing because of it, just an advice Incase you leave a faceless forum like Nairaland to go and call names thinking it will end online, because it only end online on Nairaland, when it spills offline, your ancestors don't have what it takes to defend you.
Just a piece of advice.
If you are so intelligent and informed, you should have known that already.

swaggerjack:
They are maintaining majority of the infrastructure.

U probably have no idea what life in South Africa is.

Mrfeel:
What do you know about Zaki biam?

I just told you what I know.

10thTenthMan:
Lol,

I fear that the Nigerian predatory system will wreck, tax, extort and kill these soon. One person in government will soon devise a means to extort the opportunities and drive it to the ground.

Especially, if the business is set up by the common man that is not connected to Alausa or Aso Rock.

But if we can have sense and make the best of the opportunity, Nigeria will do wonders. Detty Dec., will hopefully compete with Ibiza and Tomorrowland.

A country where it’s own currency is scarce for its own people every December…

As usual, come up with a meaningless post.
So all the cabs, hotels, suya spots, clubs etc etc that benefits from this are connected to "Alausa" or "Aso Rock" before they are operating?
Must you guys write when you don't have anything to write?

Our own currency is scarce every December?
I'm just hearing it for the first time and I have spent at least 24 of the last 30 Decembers here in Nigeria.

We can intensify agriculture and build industries if can we get serious, it's not about cows and beef, a successful society should diversify and that's what we should do.

Mrfeel:
Benue state is living on past glory of food basket of the nation not anymore, the biggest yam farmers in benue are from Zaki biam that's where the biggest yam market is , the insecurity in Zaki biam has destroyed that market, farmers no longer go to their farms for fear of getting killed in their farms , business people who were mostly igbo going there to buy yams no longer go there for fear of being kidnapped on the road to Zaki biam

The next market in Zaki Biam will still be loaded with lgb0s battIing for yams, trucks of yams are still leaving Benue and headed for South, u all say this rubbish aIot on social media.
Whereas if it really happens, famine will strike SE and part of SE especially Rivers.

So why do they still buy trailers of yam from North Central?
It's easy to see yam in NC than SE where it is considered to be equal in value with diamond.

PulaPower:
Yes, exactly but he’s so poor at it..

I read through his long post and it's meaningless.

Frigga13:
Maybe some one should upload a pictures of oshodi in 2007.. ikeja .. island .. before Fashola came on board ..

That was after 8 years of Tinubu and building Lagos ..

Instead of Yoruba people to think how to push Nigeria front ..

Naa to dey do reverse and competiton at all times

Both their propaganda and media na same thing

Yoruba people if una kill all opposition… ? Wey be una permanent seat.. how una wan make Nigeria take una serious again

Yoruba for government na flop..

Yoruba for opposition na flop

Don’t you people understand that una likes and shares for nairaland is even limited to yorub people

Have you people see any other tribe supporting Tinubu Yoruba government so openly ?

If una people dey warn me for here say no be all Yoruba dey support una

Yet no shame

One Yoruba man for nairaland said Tinubu will get 65% of votes ..

Na when you go no say na dem cave dem dey the type … all na their imaginations and hallucinations.. and funny the monikers get likes ..

Oga keep driving on reverse with speed .. e go clear una soon

..

Trying to deflect the discussion now?

Obidents are all same thing, they all know Lienus is sh!.t, they supported him for tribal and religious sentiments, is it a coincidence that he got most votes from his tribe and every demographic category he got other votes from are his religion?
I saw an old post from one loud Obident called mrvitalis today about how Obi shouldn't be allowed near a political office only to name him messiah just for tribal sentiments in 2023.

This is validating our theory that those who criticize alot and all these online activists are mostly doing it because they don't have access to Ioot, some of them even use their "activism" as opportunity to next IeveI in their personal ambitions, someone like Aisha Yesufu and Rufai would have been ministers and Iooting public funds aggressively today.

JAMO84:
I expect Peter Obi to do a twitter post on this. Like:

I woke up to the great news of Ugandans dozing off while eating jollof rice and assorted meat. Such a development can be replicated here, if only Mahamood Yakubu did not rig the 2023 election.
In Uganda, the number of meat and jollof rice eaten per square meter everyday is 10 times that of Niger and Zamfara state combined. A new Nigeria is possible - PO

I couldn't stop laughing at this, I won't be surprised when he writes this.

Hoelujohn:
If any person that is not a politician should try this, EFCC will visit the person.

Like EFCC is visiting those burning millions at clubs every night?

tungamaje:
So they have been kidnapping South African travelers and villagers and holding them hostage until ransoms are paid? I didn't know oooo. Tell me something. Don't worry, tourists would soon abandon South Africa and troop to Nigeria

They don't hold them till ransom are paid in South Africa, 95% of the time they are kiIIed and their bodies dvmped, it's a common occurrence in South Africa, that's why it's ranked in top 10 most ûñsàfe countries in world.
If u have any sense of understanding, u will understand that I'm talking about us boosting the tourism sector by building necessary infrastructures and services around tourist attractions and increase our advert in that aspect, that's what I'm saying, whatever you understood to make you say "Tell me something. Don't worry, tourists would soon abandon South Africa and troop to Nigeria", shows u are really daft.

mrvitalis:
U know that primary school in your hood

Go there ask for primary 1 buy them sweet n chewing gun then sit them down to tell them this your story

So another Lienus has been caught trying to whitewash Obi.
