₦airaland Forum

I was thinking the same. I have heard that there is a locally made bus - Innosson, I think. I do hope if they insist on "staying the course" that a significant chunk of that money goes to local manufacturers.

^^^^^^^^^^

Tyrants and their agents need to be confronted. Evil prevails when good people do nothing.

PDP and their agents are tyrannical. These lying thieves have ruled Nigeria since 1999 but each time pretend like they just got there. I've personally put down OBJ - face to face - and I will put down liars wherever they may be.

People come on Nairaland to discuss and relax but Sycophants like BEAf are just liars who will use all sorts (bigotry, ethnic disunity, religion etc) to propagate dishonesty.

How odd that @renoomokri tweets this very same article on the first page about half an hour ago.

That is the clown posted it on nairaland first before tweeting it!

Sycophants, you truly are despicable people lying through forked tongues. The devil would be proud.

Nice one. Some people have been going around denying protests are taking place despite the fact that we can all see the protests and others on the ground have testified that protests are ongoing.

Nigerians do not want their only social welfare to be taken away just so rich thieves amongst the political and military elite can keep stealing and eating N1bn a year.

The creature known as BEAF is completely daft.

It has taken an article that talks about a ramshackle group of people at border towns in Cameroun and then extrapolated this to mean the whole of Cameroon.

This creature is so bloated on Nigeria's recurring expenditure that its capacity to think is impeded.

It and Psycophants like @renoomokri attacked a Cameroonian resident in Nigeria on twitter. This "thing" is so immature that it has now taken the rebuke it received on twitter to come and post on Nairaland.

Look, tell the thief that employs you to instruct his oga to do his job properly.

For you to come online and try to insult our sensibilities is very low. I do hope you sleep with one eye open.

@ the lying Psycophants

It was the closing of the borders caused by GEJ's incompetence to 1) manage our borders and customs properly and 2) stop terrorism.

You are truly the worst type of human being that exists. People like you are often executed by their handlers once they realise that you have lied to them about what the masses think.  

When people like you go to bed each night, I am sure they think: "is it tonight that the people come for me?"

BEAF

I see You and GEJ sycophants like @renoomokri and Reuben Abati (including Maku) have finished trying to misdirect people on twitter, eh. And like the twin forked tongue you show up on Nairaland to intimidate people like an internet new media tout.

The pity is that you and your kind are destroying good people's reputation in GEJ's govt as you mislead them with what the average Nigerian thinks. Stop misleading Jonathan, he had goodwill when he was sworn in in May 2010 and again in May 2011 but like a true sycophant you are here looking after your stomach.

Kano liberation square is turning into tahir square in egypt.
Where are those lagos protesters? This is what we call d mother of all protests, even with d chilly weather in kano peeps have refused to leave d liberation sqare, plus d great understanding btw d xtians and muslims, protesting together and watching each other's back.

Well done to the Kano progressives, I hope all Nigerians can stay focused. The goal should not just be proper accountability for petrol costs but a real and sustained approach to reduce and eliminate corruption.

emmke:
where's that Beaf of a guy? I knew he'd be put to shame. Trust him not to get near this thread. But again he might just pop up. That guy is shameless.

GEJ has called a meeting of ministers and their army of special advisers. People say BEAF is Reno Omokri so there is a suspicion that he is in Abuja waiting for his masters to hand down his orders. He last logged in at 7.30am per his profile.

But as he has an IPAD, he will probably appear anytime now and start insulting people.

He may also login under another account and type in a "BEAF" manner to go after people and pretend he has mass appeal.

All of them Nigerians marching for the right to hold their leaders accountable and so that cost of corruption is not thrust on their heads.

These citizens have seen their lands spoiled by a wicked and corrupt political and military elite that GEJ is a member of and is beholden to. 

Nigerians everywhere call these brave and respected citizens: brothers, sisters, mother and father but BEAF (a GEJ sycophant who probably eats from the MASSIVE recurrent expenditure of trillions) calls them PARASITES!

peckhamboi:
Niger Delta  ex-militants on Tuesday blocked the Bomadi Junction, a section of the East-West Road in Delta State to protest against President Goodluck Jonathan’s decision to remove fuel subsidy.

The ex-militants allegedly armed were said to have engaged the  Joint Task Force  in a gun battle that lasted for over an hour.

The  protesters numbering over 300 were also said to have blocked the Warri-Port Harcourt Road, causing traffic gridlock and frustrating travellers.

http://www.punchng.com/news/ex-militants-confront-jtf-over-withdrawal/

There you have it.  When people say the OP is a thieving liar, he will come here with his forked tongue and try to deny it. See protests in Delta state. Liars like Reuben Abati and Reno Omokri will sell their family for a pot of soup.

As I understand it the system works under a "momentum" basis.

Threads that have many people commenting in quick succession will remain on the first page in the section as it is a "latest replies" shown system.  If you want your page to show then do a "Gen Buhari" and have a "one man" conversation with yourself. 

You could also lobby on your thread for your submission to make the front page; people have done this in the past with some success. Blaming Seun for what is a clear and obvious system is poor form.

If NL was pro one side or the other then the forum will just lose audience. Like him or not GEJ is the president and 160m Nigerians want to comment on what his govt says or does, such threads will therefore be popular.

This thread and its "stickiness" on the first page due to all of us commenting should show you how the platform works.

Beaf:
^
True.
It is the Nigerian constitution that also demands so many ministers.

It is statements like these that are typically made by demonic politicians.

The poster takes something that sounds true and then distorts it. GEJ claimed Federal Character means there must be 36 ministers, why then has he added 6 more for a total of 42? Further increasing the waste at the centre.

It is fun and games to play tribal politics on NL, but just know that liars and failed lawyers who are in the employment of thieving politicians are stealing from you and condemning you to an uncertain future.

Liars like Reuben Abati and Reno Omokri are padding their nests and will be ready to say and do anything for their dinner. They speak with forked tongues.

I do not know why failed lawyers keep ranting on Nairaland when they are on the payroll of the beast at the centre.

It is pathetic that people who cannot tell the difference between different parts of their anatomy will start a thread just to denigrate other people carrying out their civic duties

If people like Reno Omokri are annoyed that their bread and butter is about to be dislodged from their mouths they are free to hug and fully embrace a transformer.

Leave C@ck muncher BEAF and his sisterhood of beetches!
Deranged fools follow this phocking c@ck sucker ignorant of the stains around his mouth.
Dude, I hope you get your SS/SE caricature so you and yours can be ruled by F@cking Tw@ts like GeJ.


Speak to you phocking boss, he is obviously too cowardly to follow your views or rightly sees that you are phocking demented putrid retard.

Leave C@ck muncher BEAF and his sisterhood of beetches!

Deranged fools follow this phocking c@ck sucker ignorant of the stains around his mouth.

Dude, I hope you get your SS/SE caricature so you and yours can be ruled by F@cking Tw@ts like GeJ.

PDP apologists

It is ok, we don hear.

When the revolution comes, we will look for you in the streets.

Po, po, po, POP SOMTIN!

So if Petrol rises to N250 in Benin, Togo and elsewhere the logic is that so must our price follow?

Why don't we sack customs and close down that agency then. We should also then open our borders because Retardeen is to dumb and phocking dull to do his job!

Felicitations and or Felicitates

People in govt and NTA, get a dictionary and look up the meaning of that word.

It is so bad that NTA did this: "GEJ Felicitates with the Christmas Day Bombing victims".

Felicitations, NTA and govt people, look it up in your dictionaries.

Around 90% of the posts on this thread are from accounts that appear to be "non-Yoruba".

There is also a significantly negative or derogatory bias in the posts made by those "90% accounts".

This is what happens when people just can't get a life.

Kai, before people lynch thieves this year they will think twice. Lynching ole is now an investment.

Make I go pose and snap picture with my two kegs of PMS.

@Retardeen.

Why now? Why you phock up like this? No liver to face Boko Haram, Northern State governors or even PDP backed "cabal", you come balance face poor people.

Ebele, why now?

Given the state of emergency now announced in some parts of Nigeria, how likely are these expected sacking?

Ha ha ha ha @Nchara and One Naira

You guys crack me up, wow. Even with different spellings for Yorubas and even using lower case letters.

Yoruba obsession and Yorubaphilia is leading you to post vigorously about our fallen brothers and sister. Your concerns are noted.

Im sorry but the books of Yoruba people and related ethnic groups is closed so we cannot include you both.

Anyway have a Happy New Year. And do remember to stay safe.

@Nchara

Thank you for your concern on Yorubas. Your concern for our welfare is noted.

Have a happy new year my brother. May 2012 exceed 2011.

Happy new year chaps. This includes Igbos, Yorubas, Aworis, Itsekiris, Ijaws, Kanuris, Fulanis, Hausas and all who may be reading this.

Thanks for your concern on the welfare of the innocent being attacked in Ikorodu. Let's pray for their well being.

Let's also pray for our governors, and also GEJ. If our leaders fail, we fail.

@Nchara and OneNaira

Your love and concern for the welfare of Yorubas is noted. Well done my pikins.

Have a happy new year ok. Don't start the new year with the bitterness of 2011.

@Nchara

Your new found love and concern for the well being of Yorubas is commendable.

I see you digging out posts and commenting on potential hot spot issues and tensions between brothers.

It is well condoned. Well done omo mi.

It is late, so have a Happy New Year and mba, go to sleep.

These are sad tales of misery and death.

Jos: Witnesses’ accounts of a decade of killings

December 31, 2011
Special Report

 

By Uduma Kalu

How my five friends were killed —Hausa/Fulani driver

At around 4 p.m. on our way to a wedding in Mangu, two of the cars took a wrong turn in Barkin Ladi local government area. The first car, a small Mazda, contained eight people. I was driving the second car. We were all Hausa-Fulani from Jos. The other car was ahead of us. I stopped to ask for directions. We were near Dorawa-Tsohuwa village, a Berom community. When I stopped, some people surrounded the car.

There were three people on a motorcycle behind us and four people came out of the bush, two on each side. I thought they would tell us the actual direction. We were talking with them in Hausa but they were conversing in Berom language. They said we should come down [from the car] and they were calling others on their phones. I realized that something was going to happen and slammed down the throttle.

The two in front of the car stepped aside and we escaped from the danger. I called Jamilu, who was in the first vehicle. Jamilu’s mother is the senior sister of the groom. He told me: ‘We have been surrounded by people.

They killed two of us. Me, I am running. They want to kill me.’ I heard the sound of something crash and the phone went off. I called him again but the phone was off. We went back to Mangu and informed the soldiers what happened. They sent a lieutenant and 10 soldiers in a Hilux [pickup truck] back to the village. They allowed me to come because I knew the exact place where we stopped. We went back but did not see any corpses.

The next day we went back again with the security. We entered Dorawa village but the people did not talk. Some of them ran and the soldiers caught two of them. One of them said he was coming back from Barkin Ladi and saw people burying something but he didn’t know what. The security went to the place and found a hole used to explore tin.

The security dug and found the corpses of five people. I saw the corpses. Jamilu was among them. They had cut the necks of three, one they broke his head, the other they cut his body and removed his penis. The soldiers took the corpses to the air force base. Up until now the three other corpses have not been found.

Hausa/Fulani beat and burnt people —Igbo technician

On the 8th of January, some minutes to 11 a.m., I was on my way in a taxi to Terminus Market on Bauchi Road. I saw people block the road. They were beating and burning people. I saw them burn two people. I opened the door of the vehicle to get out. I was wearing a suit. One Hausa man ran across the road and said, ‘Let us kill this unbeliever.’ There was nowhere I could go. They rushed me and beat me with machetes and cutlasses. I defended myself with my hands but I got weak and fell down.

After that they sliced my head and they used a dagger to stab me in the rectum. When they were satisfied with the bleeding they said I was dead. They then dragged me to the Bauchi Road bridge and threw me over it. There is no water there in the dry season and I landed on the ground. The Hausa came in groups and looked at my corpse.

When they would come I would seize my breath. They thought I was dead. I cried in my mind ‘Jesus, Jesus, save me.’ My body had no life but my mind was very strong. I did this for three hours. The soldiers came around 2 o’clock. I opened one of my eyes and said to them, ‘Kindly help me.’ The soldiers said, ‘This man is not dead.’ One of the young soldiers jumped down, picked me up and took me to hospital.

I was cut all over my body. My right hand was shattered. My head was cut around six places. They stabbed me in my

anus. My stomach was all scraped up. I went to theater [for surgery] four times. They operated on my hand, but I cannot use it for anything now.

40 Muslims killed eight men—Igbo shop owner

My shop is in Dilimi, a Muslim area. I deal in electrical parts. I was in my shop around 11 a.m.-12 p.m., when I saw about 40 Muslim youths coming with machetes, daggers, and firewood. There was a man in a Plateau State government vehicle with his son.

He was buying from the boys selling clothes in front of my shop. I don’t know whether he was Berom but he was a Plateau man. He looked back and saw them break the glass on the car. He said they should stop. He didn’t know there were so many of them. They hit him with a plank and then set him on fire. His son ran away.

I ran to my neighbour’s shop. He is a Hausa man, a Muslim. He protected me. I stayed in his shop one hour. I was seeing everything that was happening outside. They [the Muslim youth] were chasing everyone who was a Christian. I saw them dragging people. They were going with fuel and machetes. I didn’t see any guns. They blocked everywhere you could run. Some [of the Christians] had blood on their bodies and were running.

I saw them gather four people together and burn them. They smashed their legs and dropped them together, and then put them on fire in the street. I saw them kill two people inside a jeep. They didn’t allow the men to get out. They broke the glass and poured fuel on them. One was an Igbo man. I know his shop. They killed another man across the main road. I saw them roast the body. I saw eight people killed that day.

Around 1:30 p.m. the army come and rescued us. Others that hid themselves came out as well. There were almost 20 or 30 other Christians. The soldiers walked us to the boundary dividing the Muslim and Christian area.

Beroms killed Muslims in a bus – Muslim passenger

On January 8, around 2 p.m., I boarded a bus in Lafia, Nassarawa State. It was a Marcopolo bus carrying 64 passengers. At around 6 o’clock [that evening] we were stopped by a roadblock in Ratsat in Jos South [local government area]. The people put a tree and stones in the road. There were about 200 people – men, women, and children.

They were Berom. They told us to all come down from the bus and asked. Where are the Muslims?’ They identified four Muslims because they were wearing kaftans [traditional Muslim dress] and asked them where they were coming from. They said they were coming from Lagos. The crowd then started beating them.

The people on the bus were all crying that they should leave them. They first beat them with sticks, then used their daggers and machetes and killed them. They threw their bodies in the bushes. The driver told us to enter the bus and that we should go, so we left the corpses there. Four of us Muslims survived – two men and two women. We didn’t identity ourselves as Muslims.

I was afraid but the Christians on the bus told us not to be afraid and advised us not to talk. They told us we should identify ourselves as Christians. From there, there were heavy [military] checkpoints on the way. At one point, we didn’t move for almost three hours. The driver tried to tell the military what had happened but the soldiers told the driver to ‘go, go, go.’ They didn’t want to hear anything.

Around 11 p.m., we reached the bus terminus at Gada Biu in Jos. As we came down from the bus, a group of people surrounded us. They said, ‘Where are you coming from?’ They divided the Muslim passengers from the Christian passengers based on the mode of dress. I was wearing jeans and t-shirt. They asked me my name. I said my name was Daniel. They asked me to pray in Christian and I prayed.

I had attended mission school so I knew how to pray. I said, ‘In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.’ They then said I should tell them the story of John the Baptist. I said I know the story but that I didn’t remember it. I told them I could tell them the story of Jesus Christ. They said okay and said I should step aside. That is how I escaped.

The group that surrounded us took the two Muslim passengers wearing kaftans to one side. They were a Fulani man and woman on their way to Gombe [State]. The other Muslim woman on the bus was wearing a jacket because it was cold and they didn’t confirm she was Muslim. I just kept quiet and was watching them. The men then hit the two Muslims with machetes, cutlasses, and daggers. They killed them there in the terminus. The other passengers were running. After they were finished, the soldiers came in their vehicle and the group ran away.

Armed men, soldiers killed 15 of my villagers— A Berom man

At around 11:30 p.m., I heard shooting of guns. I didn’t know what to do. The attackers were many. They were speaking Fulani. They came to my house and broke the door.

GEJ might run in 2015
GEJ might insist on PIB being passed
GEJ might ask for tenure elongation
GEJ might remove subsidy
GEJ might go after cabals
GEJ might sack service chiefs!

What is it with might and GEJ. Just phocking do something!
