CultureAttention Please!!! From Now, Every Niger-deltan Should Love The Igbos. .o by jide219(op): 3:19pm On Sep 10, 2016
How can you claim that you are a Niger-Deltan and you proudly hate your fellow Niger-Delta man because he is an Igbo man? What type of communal relationship is that?
I am an Igbo man from River State also a Niger-Deltan and if you hate me you are not worthy to be a Niger Deltan.
As long as Ikwere people still speak Igbo, they are Igbos. Other towns in Port-Harcourt that bear the name "Rumu" are all Igbos because they have Igbo blood flowing in their body and you cannot flush out the Igbo blood in them no matter what declearation the Nigerian politics have selfishly made for their economic gain.
That is how Nigerian politics changed our indigenous name to Niger-Delta, up till now no body know our indigenous name and our history, they changed all the towns in P.H that bear the name "Umu" which is Igbo word to "Rumu" and we accepted. The word "Umu" is an Igbo name- meaning Children of..., e.g Umu-okoro- Children of Okoro. Is Umu or Okoro an Ijaw name or Itchekiri name? But it is an Igbo name, yet they said we are not Igbos.
They said we are no longer Igbos yet many of us speak and bear Igbo names, we still maintain our Igbo tradition and cultural heritage, what type of hypocricy is that one?
The Ibibios are even Igbos(Igbo Nta-meaning small Igbo), even when they don't speak Igbo(Trace back to the history), talkless of Ikwere people that naturally rattle Ikwere and Igbo altogether more than other Igbos.
The Igbos are Shit but we the Niger-Delta cannot do without them because they are everywhere in River State, Delta state, Bayelsa State, Igbanke in Edo state. 50% of Igbos made up the Niger Delta and we can't chase them away neither can we kill all of them.
Is better we LOVE the IGBOS today otherwise Niger delta will be another thing else in terms of hatred to each other. Now there are lots of killings in Ahoda, Cultists at Omoku due to power stroggle when we have not yet achieved anything.
The MEND have collected money from Fed. Govt waka comot, Asari Dakubo is now speaking with both sides of his mouth in favour of Biafra and tomorrow nah Tompolo will follow his gesture to shout "All hail Biafra" and we are busy here hating the Igbos.
My brothers and my sister abeg una, let's love ourselves and remember that our fore-fathers lived together with the Igbos, they all imbibed in the same and similar cultural heritage in love before the Oyibo people came and spoil our show. The Housa man(Gowon) came and sow seeds of hatred among us.
Instead of us to be dealing with the Housas who are still killing our people today, we are here hating the Igbos that did not hate us, as if the Housa people use Juju to charm us.
If we continue with all these hatred our name will be SORRY because we will not achieve anything.copied.

PoliticsRe: Group Writes EFCC To Arrest Peter Obi Over Embezzlement Of N259b(Pics) by jide219(m): 8:48am On Sep 05, 2016
o42austino:
Lol... This people are funny..
Obi what?.... The Peter I know hate stealing of public funds and must compare every contract before approval for the low bidder with proven track record or work done. Peter was the first governor that invited police, DSS, ICPC, EFCC and Ndi Anambra yo a big Hall to give account of his stewardship before his hand over, there he handed everyone present a very big volume of books contain government bank accounts and list of expenditure and contract done and ask the security agency to do their investigation to know if all he told them was the truth and nothing but, the truth.

That's why EFCC has not dem it fit to invite him when all this politically motivated petitions started flying in because they know the truth.

This Is the guy that single handedly moved Anambra forward and first ever introduced Anambra developmental blue print which this present administration is using, his the first with in conjunction with UN habitat to map Anambra out with its cities both old and new, so that building will not intrude into reserved areas for farm and industries,this is the Governor that stop linkages of public fund via waste full spending by head of Agencies in Anambra.

This Is the first governor in Anambra that link all the major ruler Roads in Anambra and build them even with the suppression and oppression he received from OBJ and the Uba Brothers headed by Chris Uba.

Financial prudence is his watch word and he is hated by political jobber in Anambra state for not sharing state funds that's why they nick named him Aka Gum(Gum hand) ,because he refused to share state money and refuse to spend money unwisely.

This Is a guy that made investment for Ndi Anambra so that we can have alternative ways of generating money apart from Federal government money, he made sure he left billions of Naira in reserve in view that oil price will fall.

I know all this for sure because I was staying at government house Awka as a student of NAU then.
with all what u just said about this man I think he deserve to be the president

EducationOluwatunmise Idowu Solves 17 Maths Questions In 1 Minute by jide219(op): 11:43pm On Aug 12, 2016
For solving 17 Maths questions in one minute, a pupil of Scholars Universal Secondary School, Ota, Ogun State, Oluwatunmise Idowu, has set a new record in the annual Cowbellpedia Mathematics Television quiz.

Idowu, 13, set the new record when she slugged it out in the Group B stage of the on-going competition with Ayomide Nafisat Abdulwaheed, a JSS 3 pupil of Reality High School, Osogbo, Osun State; Olajide Osoba of Atlantic Hall, Epe, Lagos State; Edidiong Okon of Topfaith International Secondary School, Uyo, Akwa Ibom State; Charles Adesoba of Petoa City College, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State; and Vanessa Ibol of NOWA Secondary School, New Kashi, Nassarawa State.

With the new record, Idowu has beat the record of 15/60 seconds set last year by Ayodeji Akinkuowo of Adeyemi Demonstration College, Ondo State. Akinkuowo eventually won the senior category of the competition.

The competition is an annual programme organised by Promasidor Nigeria Limited. The phase won by Idowu involved a test of contestants’ speed and accuracy as they were required to answer as many questions as possible in 60 seconds.

Idowu, who said she spends four hours practising Mathematics everyday, also hopes to win the crown this year.

“I want to win. My parents want me to win, just like my school also wants me victorious. Winning the crown will be the greatest gift I want from God this year. Apart from the one million naira prize, the bragging right in my school and among my friends will be inestimable. I can’t wait for the glorious moment. I pray for God’s favour,” she said.
