I wonder who is going to do the ethnic cleansing he mentioned.

Yoruba has never in its history wiped out a people for their belief or ethnicity. We will not start now. God forbid!

Ibo is not even at our level militarily...it will not be a ethnic cleansing it would be a genetic wipe out if we were to engage in such foolishness. God forbid!


I wonder if this Ibo leader meant in his phrase ethnic cleansing against Yoruba. Ohanaeze needs to call him to order.

We dont attack others...but our defensive response is legendary!

Yoruba, the most Superior race on earth!

CHIEF OLU FALAE SPOKE THE MINDS OF HONEST AND PROGRESSIVE NIGERIANS- THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT RESTRUCTURING NIGERIA IS ALL ABOUT .

This beautiful piece by Chief Olu Falae is for for the education of the hypocrtitical, genocidal, fake-prayer warrior, ICC bound war criminal called Gowon and other mischievous Nigerians , who pretend that they do not understand what restructuring is all about. This is 100% my position. God bless you Chief.

FOR THOSE STILL GREEKED BY THE TERM, THIS IS THE MEANING OF RESTRUCTURING AS CANVASSED BY SOUTHERN NIGERIA BY~Chief Olu Falae

You know I am a leader in the South West and at the National convention, I was elected as the leader of the Yoruba delegation. So, I am central to the Yoruba position. The Yoruba position is my position and it is the same position I canvassed in my book, ‘The way forward for Nigeria’ which I launched since 2005 in Lagos. What we mean by restructuring is going back to the Independence Constitution which our leaders negotiated with the British between 1957 and 1959. It was on that basis that the three regions agreed to go to Independence as one united country. So, it was a negotiated constitution. This is because, if the three regions were not able to agree, there would not have been one united independent Nigeria. But because the three regions at that time negotiated and agreed to package a constitution, that is why they agreed to go to Independence together. When the military came in 1966 and threw away the constitution, they threw away the negotiated agreement among the three regions, which was the foundation of a united Nigeria.

So, the military did not only throw away the constitution but a political consensus negotiated and agreed by our leaders of the three regions in those days. When we say restructuring now, we are saying let us go back substantially to that constitution which gave considerable autonomy to the regions. For example, each region at that time collected its revenue and contributed the agreed proportion to the centre. But when the military came, they turned it round and took everything to the centre. That could not have been accepted by Ahmadu Bello, Nnamdi Azikiwe or Obafemi Awolowo.

This constitution we are using was made by late Gen Sani Abacha and the military; and Abacha came from only one part of Nigeria, so he wrote a constitution that favoured his own part of Nigeria. That is why I am saying, let us restructure and go back to what all of us agreed before. That is the meaning of restructuring. The regions used to be federating units, but in today’s Nigeria, they would now be called federal regions because states have been created in the regions. So in the West, you now have federation of Yoruba states which would belong to the Nigerian union at the centre. So, it is not like the region of old with all the powers. No. It is now going to be a coordinator of the states in the zone. That is what we mean by restructuring. And the regions would have a considerable autonomy as they used to have. For example, for the younger people, they may not know that every region then had its own constitution.

There were four constitutions at independence –the Federal constitution, Western constitution, Eastern constitution and Northern constitution. That was how independent they were and every region had an ambassador in London. The ambassadors for the regions were called Agent General so that you do not confuse them with that of Nigeria then called High Commissioner. So, Nigeria had four ambassadors in London. The ambassador for Nigeria then called a High Commissioner was M.T Mbu. The ambassador for Eastern Nigeria then was Mr Jonah Chinyere Achara, Western Nigeria was Mr Omolodun and for Northern Nigeria, it was Alhaji Abdulmalik. There were four of them. That was the kind of arrangement we agreed to, but the military threw it away and gave us this over-centralised unitary constitution. So, we said this is not acceptable any more; we must go back to the negotiated constitution which gave considerable autonomy to the regions, so that they can compete in a healthy manner. For example, Chief Obafemi Awolowo wanted to introduce free education in the West and other regions said they could not afford it, but he went ahead to introduce it in the Western region. He said he wanted to pay a minimum of five shillings a day, while others were paying two and three shillings. He went ahead and passed the law, making five shillings the minimum wage in Western Nigeria.

There was no problem with that. In Western Nigeria, the constitution provided for a House of Assembly and the House of Chiefs. In Eastern Nigeria, there was no House of Chiefs because they did not think they needed one. There was no problem with that and that is the kind of Nigeria we negotiated in London, but that is different from what we have today. So, we are saying let us go back to that arrangement which all of us agreed at independence and not what Abacha imposed on us, which is very partial, unfair and one-sided. That is the meaning of restructuring; it is to restructure unfairness and give semi-autonomy to the federating units.

Chief Olu False is a leading Yoruba leader and waa Head of the Southwest Delegation to the Jonathan National Constitutional Conference.

I saw a thread earlier on (why do guy thinks girls are whores?) I think this is my own view.

You had better stop comparing, if God wants equal rights for us all, he would have created everyone with p.enis or va.gina. But the difference in our private organ and body build shows that what is good for one may not be good for the other.

If a male child should become wayward, believe me if he repents, not a sign of it will be on his body but if a female child becomes wayward, I won't lie to you, let her become a pastor. There will still be signs to show for it like sagged breasts, wide va.gina, etc.Tell me can a man have a deformed organ as a result of being promiscuous.? obviously no!

Don't compare the two together.A lady that compare herself with a man is playing a dangerous game. U sure know that when he have sex with u without protection, u would get pregnant and u will receive the blame. Yet u allowed him, don't blame anyone for your misfortune because u are aware that the lady takes the blame.

Man and woman are two different words with different attributes. A man who lives like a woman won't find it easy and vice versa. Even two ladies are not the same not to talk of a man and a woman.

You want gender equality, ladies. Can you impregnate a fellow lady? Even those of us who transgendered to become a man still have so many manly activities they can't do.

Learn to appreciate your gender and bring out the best from it.

Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing (IVM) Co. Ltd is the first wholly indigenous and leading vehicles manufacturing company in Nigeria. That these vehicles are locally manufactured in Nigeria has automatically become a plus to Nigerians because its ranges of vehicles are Nigerian specs and not Japanese specs, European specs or American specs.

American specs cars indicate that the vehicles are produced mainly to be used in America and therefore the American environment was put in considerations while producing the cars, so also the same consideration was given when producing Japanese and European cars.

Today, Nigeria is known as dumping ground for imported/foreign cars and most of these cars are not suitable to the Nigerian environment. Nigeria with a motorization rate of 81%, with the total number of cars on the road up to 14million, Nigerian motor users have not really had the opportunity of driving specially made vehicles specifically manufactured for Nigerian roads until the entrance of Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company Ltd.

Today, IVM is using the concept of regionalisation in the production of its vehicles by making sure that it considers the Nigerian environment, local tastes and consumer preferences in Nigeria as well as African region during the production of its vehicles.
With the vehicle manufacturing plant located here in Nigeria, IVM ensures it gets feedback from the users of IVM in order to know their views on their IVM experience and by these feedbacks they seek better ways to improve on the tastes and preferences of their customers to suit the Nigerian environment.

The following are advantages of driving Innoson Vehicles:

1.Fuel Efficiency
All Innoson IVM are highly fuel efficient vehicles. Being that petrol is a costly commodity in our country, Innoson vehicles brand of engines were specifically designed by its research engineers to consume less petrol/diesel and with an average fuel saving of between 10%-15%. IVM continually receives good feedback from their vehicle users who confessed that their Innoson vehicles do consume less fuel than other brands of foreign vehicles.

2.Warranty
All Innoson vehicles come with a 3 years engine, axles and gear warranty. Upon purchase of any vehicle from Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Co Ltd or any of its authorized dealers, IVM is committed to being by your side by providing prompt and quality after sales service to you no matter your location. As the first indigenous vehicle manufacturing company in Nigeria, it has a unique advantage in that vehicle spare parts are readily available. IVM meets the warranty needs of its users through

i. The Innoson IVM Mobile Workshop: The mobile workshop is a 24/7 vehicle service workshop designed to provide prompt and quality after sales repair service to our customers.

3.Low/No Overheating:
In trying to win the war against vehicle overheating, IVM added some extra important features that will reduce the chances of their vehicles from overheating. These features includes;

i. New Improved Thermostat: The new improved IVM thermostat which sits between the engine and the radiator has a metal valve that has a temperature sensor built in. It can either be open or closed. When the thermostat is closed, it keeps the coolant in the engine. When the engine gets to a predetermined temperature, the thermostat opens allowing coolant to circulate. With this, the circulation of coolant prevents the engine from overheating.

ii. Double/ Triple Fan: Another unique feature that makes IVM vehicles to avoid overheating is its double/triple fans. In responding to the Nigerian hot environment, IVM built in additional fans to the AC condenser together with the one of the radiator. The AC condenser has two fans while the radiator has a big fan making it three set of fans. This unique feature is one of the reason while IVM vehicles esp. its buses and SUV hardly overheat.

4.Auto-Financing
Sourcing an auto-finance in Nigeria today has become a cumbersome task. When you get, the interest rate and hidden charges deter some interested persons from purchasing a brand new vehicle through auto-finance. IVM has been able to partner with some financial institutions such as Sterling bank, Diamond bank, Fidelity bank etc, to help in new vehicle purchase. The repayment period is spread out over 36 months (3 years) allowing you the ease to pay the corresponding monthly amount for the particular vehicle you choose.

5.Environmental Friendly Vehicles
The automotive industry is a growth industry. But along with the record growth, it is experiencing, the industry is also facing unprecedented challenges. As consumer expectations are transforming, vehicle manufacturers are confronted with the ever greater complexity of producing vehicles that are environmentally friendly.
IVM is using the concept of regionalisation in the production of its vehicles by making sure that it considers the Nigerian environment, local tastes and consumer preferences in Nigeria as well as African region during the production of its vehicles. Some measures it has taken include the following;

i. Reinforced Shock Absorber: With the deplorable state of roads in Nigeria, which has certainly become a national shame and an unnecessary embarrassment as there is hardly any part of the country that can boast of motorable roads, Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing designed into the Innoson brand of vehicles a reinforced shock absorber in its vehicles to absorb shock impulses. This improved technology will ensure that driving through our rough roads will lead to improved ride quality and vehicle handling.

ii. Economic Effectiveness: Innoson Vehicles has the capacity to achieve high power output, low fuel consumption, and low exhaust emissions. It is equally equipped with a world-class, lightweight chassis and lightweight body design. IVM vehicles are significantly lighter than others of the same class.
Innoson Vehicle major strength lies in its ability to produce to a specific request of the client at the same price with the standard versions to meet the specific need of the client. The fact that the vehicles are Made-in-Nigeria vehicles takes care of special inputs at the manufacturing stage to suit special needs.
