Nigeria what is the problem? Why can't you guys love each other? When you are outside you act like relations but back in Nigeria, tribalism and nepotism destroys it.
Nigeria would have been World Power if Nigerians threw away Corruption, Tribalism and Nepotism and love each other but it just seem as if they don't want to.

UCyril: the non indigenes are not interested in politics because they are not from Rivers State but the have voters card. Ijaw people are very smart that's why the want to play divide and rule tactics , they're quietly separating other igbiod group from ikwerre. During election what they will do is to solicit support from people in oyigbo,omuma,etche, ogba, etc with non indigenes. Remember fubara speak igbo he will be campaigning with igbo language to gather vote of non indigenes. Divide what na? People who are prone to divide and rule cannot divide others. The fake "Ijaw" alliance is nothing more than an economic franchise. When the chips are down, those strange bed fellows will abandon their tower of babel illusion. |

UCyril: ikwerre with 4 LGAs can conveniently rule Rivers State with 23 LGAs...lol very funny. Even 2 of the LGAs PH and Obiakpor are dominated by non indigenes. ... Fubara will finish his 8 yrs and hand over to kalabari man to ogoni man to igbo man back to ijaw lol. Dominated.  Mr. Dominator, so your non-indigenes produce councillors and House of Assembly members and ward chairman in Phalga and ObioAkpor? Or you dominate with your mouth only?  We just need the votes of Phalga, Obio Akpor, Ikwerre Emohua, Oyigbo. That alone is half of the total electoral votes in Rivers state. If you add Ahoada and Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni which are traditionally related to the Ikwerres, we are home and dry. All we need do is stoke the ethnic sentiments properly. Just tell our people that Ijaw have come with domination agenda. And that is it. The number of polling units alone in the 4 Ikwerre LGAs is more than 10LGAs combined. Those who claim to be Ijaws are Abua/Odual - 214 Ahoada West - 171 Akuku Toru - 244 Andoni - 265 Asari Toru - 251 Degema- 178 Bonny - 165 Ogu/Bolo - 131 Okrika - 170 Opobo/Nkoro - 154 Total = 1943 pollin units. Ikwerre alone Obio/Akpor - 1211 Port Harcourt - 961 Ikwerre - 312 Emohua - 280 Total = 2764 pollint units. I never add Oyigbo and Etche and Ogba and Ekpaye who are outer traditional brothers? Let Ijaw people continue, I'm praying it gets to bloodshed so that ethnicity will become the basis for decision making.

Una no make noise all dis while. Noise makers Ikwerre can conveniently rule Rivers State non stop. Personally I like the Ijaw nationalism ongoing in Rivers state, for anything, ethnic sentiments will be the first considerations when people decide to vote in elections. Let's us see who actually has the highest voting strength. Ijaws have Bayelsa to themselves and also want to claim ownership of Rivers State. Impossible. Ethnic politics is way to go henceforth. |

We need 2 new moderators who are passionate about Romance and Nairaland, and can dedicate sufficient time to remove inappropriate content, ban people who break the rules, and create threads on hot topics to ensure that the Romance section attracts more engagement.
Most importantly, the war between men and women on this section must end. Women need to feel safe to participate and share their views in this section without being harassed by men. And vice versa. This requires consistent and unyielding enforcement of the rules every day.
If you know someone who is fit for this role, please nominate them. Someone who has been consistently active in this section for a long time, and who has not been a habitual rule-breaker during this time. If you're nominated, please indicate your acceptance and let's talk.
PS: Sorry, you can't nominate yourself. Someone must nominate you and then you can accept the nomination if you're interested.  I nominate Jewessgratitud3. |

ReubenE: wrong, not the founder of their tribe but the founder of Opobo. Their tribe/ethnicity has long being in existence before Jaja the slave boy was even born.
Does it even make sense to you that you said their "tribe started with Jaja". Jaja that just existed few hundred years ago. Don't confuse the language they speak as their tribe. Jaja did not give birth to everybody in Opobo and Opobo does not have only the Jaja family. He left for Opobo from Bonny with people, not just himself and those people other than himself have a tribe.
Side note: Jaja was bought as a slave and made a free Ijaw man so y'all obsession with sneaking Igbo into Opobo Ijaw affairs in Rivers is concerning. The stool of Opobo is Ijaw so that alone should be enough to discontinue the petty sentiments Ijaws have propagated the notion that Ijawness is based purely on ancestry and not language. How then can the stool of Opobo be said to be Ijaw when Jaja was clearly an Igboman. No matter the traditional rites done, you can never alter the DNA of an Igboman into an Ijaw and vice versa. Alot of "Ijaws" today are actually Igbos because the Igbos were the readily available humans In the slave market as at then. The traditional practices that turned them from Igbos into Ijaws especially in Okrika is simply tradional and unscientific in nature, as no amount of tradition can displace the biological composition of the different races. And going by ancestry again, a lot of "Ijaws" are actually people from different parts of Nigeria and west Africa because there is also a notion that Ijaw women are the owners of children they bore. I know persons in Kalabari especially whose paternity are traced to other ethnicities in Nigeria and west Africa at large but bear Kalabari names and claim to be native of Kalabari communities, which by extension are Ijaw, simply because of their maternity. So is the Ijaw ancestry now a feature of any parent? |

You cleverly picked an opobo man because of their mixed heritage with ndigbo thinking that ijaw will not see him as their brother so you can use and useless him. But I am glad Izon are wiser than you. Rivers state actually belongs to the riverine people of Rivers state(ijaw). Don't try to oppress them in their state Mumu, you no fit answer my simple question on how Rivers state take belong to Riverine people. Ijaw cannot do shiit in Rivers state. Go and tell them that is what Ikwerre said. Highest na to blow pipeline. Na there e go end. Personally I'm happy the way Ijaws have reacted to this Fubara saga, their ethnic connotations suits my agenda perfectly. Going forward everyone will be made to vote according to ethnic lines. I will ensure I aise awareness and campaign in that direction. I want to see how Ijaw can smell government house again after Fubara tenure. |
Politics › Re: Seun, Stop Holding Nairalanders Hostage. by jamesversion: 2:41pm On Jan 07, 2024 |
omenka: Dear Seun Osewa
I'd waste no time in going straight to the point of this thread.
For the umpteenth time, I was unduly banned for responding to a provocative comment directed at my person. Your Mods, after reporting the user several times, looked the other way and banned me for responding in kind to the said comment.
Upon serving my ban, I deliberately refused to log back into the forum, given you and your moderators appear to have totally lost control of your creation. Today, I wanted to deactivate my handle and noticed that isn't possible.
Nairaland isn't what it used to be and may never be, because you've chosen to be such a coward in wheilding the big stick against those who violate the same rules you set for the forum. I have contributed in no small measure to the discussion here, with numerous personally written articles which I published nowhere else but here. The days when we had real debates here, before the birth of TAN, ATIKULATES, and then IPOB, and OBIDIENTS.
All I requested was the application of your rules in equal measure across board. You have totally failed in this responsibility and I sincerely doubt you plan to do any better. If you can't enforce your own rules, then leave the field open to members to deal with the stench of their own farts.
Whatever it is, enable those of us who desire to leave the forum to do so in peace as anything otherwise is equivalent holding us hostage. Let the dogs you have created by your aloofness have the forum. I and a couple other persons are NO LONGER INTERESTED.
Peace. ✌️ Omenka, get lost from Nairaland. Don't login again ever. As much as you don't login to post anything, you have technically deactivated. Good riddance. |
Politics › Re: Wike: I Was Offered A Lot To Work Against Tinubu by jamesversion: 2:05pm On Jan 07, 2024 |
bentenny: I really do not know where and how Obi threw her under the bus!
Unless the phase 'thrown under the bus' has lost its meaning due to Nigerian politics! I have viewed the speech he made that day and I am still trying to look for where I can insert this very phase but I found none! Maybe it your way of trying to give a dog a bad name while crucifying it!
Even Beatrice knew it was a bridge too far for her and the only compensation she could have was to just be a flagbearer and that's where it stopped!
Finally,it's not in your place to assume that there was no tangible legacy of Obi in Anambra state esp if you are not from there or don't reside there! Let majority of folks there be the ones to make such judgement not you!
Interestingly,When he was a past governor all and sundry showered him praises for what he did at Anambra state but the moment he announced he wanted to vy for presidency,half of them who are currently benefitting from the lopsided system of Nigeria started attacking him!
I do believe the same Peter Obi was a great governor esp considering the fact that he tried his best for the people of Anambra state! If he didn't perform well,he wouldn't be walking the streets of Anambra without a security detail but other former governors in that state needed soldiers to enter the state!
He may not have done everything within those 8 years but he did enough to win the appraisal of even his most vocal critics in Anambra state to a point that the last election results in Anambra state were overwhelming and an explicit evidence of his popularity! Even Tinubu who was touted to have developed Lagos state could not even win his own adopted state let alone the state he claimed to have come from! If the democratic Presidential aspirant comes to campaign in a state say New York and says to the New Yorkers to vote for him in Federal and vote for Republicans in state elections, wouldn't that be scandalous? Is it because Nigerians have no party value system that you condone the excesses of Peter Obi. What are the legacies of Obi in Anambra? |
Politics › Re: Wike: I Was Offered A Lot To Work Against Tinubu by jamesversion: 1:21pm On Jan 07, 2024 |
bentenny: The Guber candidate of LP stood no chance at all nah! She knows this just like the LP candidates in bayelsa,delta or states Obi won! Even her emergence as LP flagbearer was without controversy! Rivers state people except for those in Gokana and okrika LGA wanted Peter Obi to be president but they were split between pdp's Fubara,apc's Cole and Sdp's abe!
No one even mentioned the LP flagbearer because she was unpopular and only riding on the popularity of Obi!
Even Obi knew she didn't stand a chance against the likes of Fubara who was Wike's adopted son or Cole who got the backing of Amaechi rotimi! Hence what was on offer was the presidency which Obi knew was within his grasp!
Some people may sight Otti as reference but people are forgetting that Otti has been popular and contesting...he was already well known in abia state before he joined LP! Even if Obi intended to throw the Labour woman under the bus, must he say it in public?. Tinubu made alliances across board, but never for once did he undermine his party at any level in public. But Obi came to PH and made mockery of Beatrice Itubo. He undermined the chances of the woman and Labour party before the contest (she even came 3rd ahead of Magnus Abe). That alone portrayed obi as being desperate and untrustworthy. Desperate and untrustworthy people cannot be relied on for anything. I don't know what people see in Obi, he has no tangible legacy in Anambra one can point to as a reason for support. |
