Some Nigerians in Australia came out to protest against the bad leaders in Nigeria on the 1st of October, 2021. It happened in the open square of Forrest Place in Perth, Western Australia.

Nigerian, Oduduwa and Biafran Flags were flown freely to express freedom of choice. Australians also joined in the protest.

SimplyFacts:


It's an emotional moment for me right now

Hahahahahahahha, you are indeed funny. Relax boy, Kanu is just a grain of rice in a huge rice factory. To prove this, in a few days, another IPOB leader will be announced and Kanu’s leadership will elapse like that of Uwazuruike. It could be an Ikonso from IPOB. This time, he will live, fight and die in the dot for another IPOB member to take over.

I enjoy your pictures and mockery though lol. Saving the pictures.

SimplyFacts:
It's a season of premium tears.

Good thing is,,,, I've got handkerchiefs for sale.

UGM supporters can take as many as they want for free. You needn't to thank me.

So, you think the Nigerian government has succeeded in ending the Biafran struggle? Hahahahahahaha…LWMD. You must be a poor child without an iota of idea about Nigeria’s history of militant groups.

Since after the civil war, the struggle for the attainment of Biafra has been relatively peaceful until recently. However, there has been a gradual but steady drift towards violence.

Massob was non-violent, and it’s leader, Uwazuruike was easily arrested and made to stay silent by Obasanjo’s government. At that point, Nigerians thought that the Biafran struggle had been effectively curbed. They were wrong because Massob gave birth to the Biafran Zionist Movement (BZM) and IPOB with a new and more international outlook.

While BZM was easily curtailed, IPOB persisted with an armed and more military defensive disposition. A new dimension was introduced to the Biafran struggle. Though, they have been accused of creating the unknown gunmen, no one has really brought forward any evidence to that effect.

Nnamdi Kanu has been arrested, and just like Uwazuruike, Nigerians are starting to feel that the struggle has ended. As we all know, the struggle is far from over. A new and more violent group may split from IPOB to wreak havoc. The Unknown Gunmen may finally be known.

Violence and political victimisation cannot quell a struggle. The Federal government will need to listen to the voice of reason and solve the problems that has bedevilled Nigeria for the past 50 years.

Why did Nigeria create and emphasise on the existence of a SOUTH SOUTH region without WEST WEST, NORTH NORTH and EAST EAST regions?

Rosskiiku:


Dude there are 10 times more checkpoints in the north than in the East, plus more military presence up north, for obvious reasons.

Plus, the west is calm.

The East is volatile, with IPOB and ESN elements seeking the destruction of the federation, hence the presence of law enforcement.

You are wrong. Moreover, the East was more peaceful than the West. Why did they need so much checkpoints all over the East? IPOB was non violent, why did they need gun wielding and murderous security operatives harassing, raping and extorting Eastern Nigeria? There is no smoke without fire.

Typical victim mentality,

How many Airports did Stella Odua approve as Minister for aviation in Ibo land

How many independent power plant did Professor Berth Nnaji construct in Ibo land

How many are they compared to the North and West? Why does it have to be Bath Nnaji (Igbo) and Stella Odua (Igbo) that will construct them? How long did the two of them last? I no get time to respond to you. Enjoy the action movie.

Rosskiiku:
Dear Igbos, If You Chase Away The Police, Who Will You Report To When Robbers Come?

Are you guys aware that it is the much maligned Nigerian Police Force that stands between us - the unarmed population - and gangs of heavily armed robbers?

Do you really think it is that fence around your house that is protecting you from armed robbers?

I laugh in Greek and Hindi.

Look, it is those policemen you hate. Those men that you see patrolling at night in police vans, ready to take on robbers and men of the underworld.

THEY are the ones that have been keeping you safe and alive, with your possessions intact, all these years.

Oh, the police collect 50 naira from you at the checkpoint?

Oh, so they beat up one or two people for not dashing them money?

So because of that, they should all go?

All of them?

Hahahahahahaha.

I laugh in German and Swahili.

Una go see something.

Continue driving them.

Don’t worry about the Igbos. Infact, we prefer the thieves to rob us than to be treated like a conquered people in our own land. The question should be this, “why are there checkpoints everywhere in the East compared to the North and West?”

iammo:




Their short and stupid lust for quick gains, quick victory and chestbeating won't let them see the bigger picture, when the consiquences of their actions start manifesting, then they turn to Victimhood mentality

They scream and wail, they hate us, they marginalised us, they don't invest in our unsecured region, our river ports are not working, nobody votes for us


.

When the east was peaceful, did the FG invest in the region? Were the river ports working? Did anyone vote for us? Didn’t you threaten to throw us into the lagoon in Lagos when we tried to vote who we wanted? Were the Boko Haram militants not treated more like first class citizens than the Igbos? So, what stupid point are you trying to make? Abeg go siddon for corner jo!

Rosskiiku:
I wonder who they will report to when armed robbers start paying them a visit.

I guess that would be Chief Police Superintendent, His Excellency, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, GCFR.

You are talking as if when the UGM was not in existence, there was anyone to report to.

Mikecold:
Op, you are right except 5

Boko Haram and it's Northerner almajiris would never conquer christianity.

We came before Islam, we would rather end this marriage of Nigeria in war than be subject to sharia

Don’t bet on your conviction bros. Northern Muslims are already taking over the South West gradually. They are moving down to the mid west (Edo) slowly. It is difficult to notice their rapid spread.

1. New Generation of Terrorists:

A new generation of hardened Boko Haram terrorists is imminent. This new generation is mostly born, bred and accustomed to terrorism.

2. Deadlier Militant Attacks:

The new generation of Boko Haram terrorists will be better trained and more tactical than the Nigerian military. They will fight with resolve and persistence due to their belief in the cause. That will be what their lives will be dedicated to. These attacks will not only be physical, but they will also be cyber, spiritual, legal, political, institutional attacks among many. In fact, many pastors may even end up being Boko Haram members.

3. A Emerging Jihad:

This new generation will attack every single part of Nigeria and West Africa, just like what is being experienced in Somalia and the nations around it. They will hit the South with relative ease and more lives will be lost with reckless abandon.

4. Existence of a Terrorist Breeding Program:

Terrorists are now being bred in Northern Nigeria. It is systematic and will yield abundant fruits for the terrorists. If this is allowed to continue, battalions of Boko Haram terrorists will be created, and Nigeria will have no answer for them.

5. Establishment of Islam as a National Religion:

The time when Christianity and other religions will be subjected to the supremacy of Islam is close. The federal government is trying very hard to pretend that they have the situation under control, but they don't. Even a Christian president may not be able to stop the complete Islamisation of Nigeria.

Imagine that Nigeria is a bus, the presidents are its successive drivers and the masses are its passengers. The bus has been left unserviced for years, and as a result, it has turned into a Jalopy because its successive drivers seem to be more occupied with stealing its parts and selling them in the black market to enrich themselves.

The passengers can see what the drivers are doing, but they stop at only complaining and mocking the drivers at every opportunity. They seem quite worried about the the deterioration of the bus, but their primary concern is to ensure that the driver of the bus is selected from their section of the bus. They are even ready to reappoint a driver that once stole from the bus as long as the person is from the section of their bus.

Some passengers have also developed a habit of puncturing the tires of the bus in order for them to rob, r.ape and beat up their fellow passengers at nightfall. The drivers seem to lack an idea of how to fix the bus before nightfall each time the tires are punctured, and they seem to lack the ability to identify and stop the passengers that are always responsible for the negative activities at nightfall.

Everyone is aware that one day the bus will breakdown, and there will be no need for a driver anymore. They also know that at that point, the passengers will have to alight and painstakingly walk to the nearest locations to them with no hope of getting to their desired destinations. As a result, some passengers are agitating to abandon the bus, before it breaks down in order to look for another one that can take them to their destinations. However, successive drivers seem to collude with majority of the passengers to forcefully refuse their requests to alight. A few other passengers has successfully alighted and boarded other buses after they were allowed to ease themselves.

THIS IS A SPONSORED POST LOL. Is this the new political strategy in Nigeria? Most of the comments were articulately planned and presented to support Osinbanjo. Good job to whoever is spearheading this strategy.

If Nigeria was the United States, Dr Okonjo Iweala would have been chosen by either the Democrats or Republicans, and she would have been the strongest contestant.

She ticks all of the boxes:

Experience: served severally as a major minister and understands the requirements of leadership

Professional: she has attained verifiable professional achievements at a global scale

Political Support: it is often said that it is the turn of Igbos to lead Nigeria in 2023. She is Igbo, and she can effectively represent the South East’s slot even though some pundits will debate against that

History: she will become the first woman to lead Nigeria. It will entrench gender equality and hope for Nigerian women

Diplomacy: her leadership will be respected and supported as shown in her recent WTO endorsement.

However, Nigerians are too divided across ethnic and religious lines to even consider her. It is a big loss for Nigeria.

Nigeria should invite Sabastian Osigwe. Dude can solve all of Nigeria’s goalkeeping problems. He is a giant, experienced and a good goalkeeper.

I doubt there's Ijaw in Cross river


Why you come dey write igbo sub tribes as a tribe on their own?

What of Akoko in Edo?

I wonder o. Nigeria’s problem is not politicians, it is Nigerians. The deceptive, divisive and in-depth ignorance among the masses is actually the problem. Every Nigerian have got their own narrative and story about what Nigeria is.

The beef between Blaqbonez and Kaligraph Jones is far from over.

After Kaligraph dissed Blaqbonez with his “Best Rapper in Nigeria” track, Blaqbonez replies with his “Green Blaq Green” counter diss track, and all hell broke loose. Since then, the whole of Kenya has persistently attacked and insulted him and Nigeria with reckless abandon.

There is actually a campaign going on now to ensure that Blaqbonez’s diss track gets more clicks on the “dislike” button than the “like” button, and they have used that to try to shame Blaqbonez.

Listen to the two diss tracks below and judge for yourself.

Trump wrote on Facebook:

“Iran is talking very boldly about targeting certain USA assets as revenge for our ridding the world of their terrorist leader who had just killed an American, & badly wounded many others, not to mention all of the people he had killed over his lifetime, including recently hundreds of Iranian protesters. He was already attacking our Embassy, and preparing for additional hits in other locations. Iran has been nothing but problems for many years. Let this serve as a WARNING that if Iran strikes any Americans, or American assets, we have targeted 52 Iranian sites (representing the 52 American hostages taken by Iran many years ago), some at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian culture, and those targets, and Iran itself, WILL BE HIT VERY FAST AND VERY HARD. The USA wants no more threats!”

How can UNN issue a foreign qualification?? Explain this please?

This is an absurd proposition

It can be done through affiliation or exchange. If UNN decides to approve (key word is “approve”) the issuance is foreign qualification to its students, it can be done. It is a common practice.

UCI could not approve anything without being sanctioned by the parent University in Britain. That was why it was a British University.

0monnak0da:


Upside down Logic
Nigeria was created by the British and was British till it gained independence. The issue of foreigness could not arise before inddependence

Not all secondary schools pre independence were built by British . Some were Islamic

You have argued that using foreign qualifications ,makes a school British and now you are telling us that all secondary schools pre WAEC were foreign .

Your argument of course means that even the Islamic schools were FOREIGN and therefore British since they took CAMBRIDGE etc

That is your perspective and it is indeed very interesting.

None of this changes the facts as to which was the first University in Nigeria or ( first secondary school)whether or not they were foreigh which is the topic of this thread

The first University in Nigeria was UI

The first University in Nigeria was University College Ibadan

The first Nigerian University is University of Nigeria Nsukka

University of Ibadan was the second Nigerian University

UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN was nonexistent when UNN was created and launched.


Nigeria was created by the British, but it wasn’t British. If they wanted Nigeria to be British, they would have entrenched the POLICY OF ASSIMILATION like the French did in neighboring nations.

A NIGERIAN SCHOOL is defined by ownership, administrative structure, qualifications and location.

An Islamic school controlled and administered by a foreign Islamic body with foreign Islamic qualifications issued from them but with structures built in Nigeria is a foreign school

An Islamic school controlled and administered by a Nigerian Islamic body with foreign Islamic qualifications issued by the school and with structures built in Nigeria is a Nigerian school

Likewise;

A University controlled and administered by a foreign university with foreign tertiary qualifications validated and issued from overseas but with structures built in Nigeria is a foreign University

A University controlled and administered by Nigerians with tertiary qualifications approved and issued from a Nigerian regulatory authority and with structures built in Nigeria is a Nigerian University

0monnak0da:

It was not an acceptance, According to you UCL was foreign BECAUSE the qualificationn was FOREIGN but for the secondary xchools it is not.
We are talking of schools established BEFORE Nigeri was created
They did NOT ACCEPT these qualifications
Those were the ONLY qualifications known . THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE just like with UCL

so you are obviosly ontradicting yourself.

Secondary schools existed in Nigeria for over 70 years before WAEC was created so how you can talk of acceptance beats me

We arre talking of schools established by British people often Missionary schools

So by your LOGIC if UCL was foreign Kings College was foreign CKC Onitsha was foreign

One would like to learn the name of the first NIGERIAN secondary school

Let me clarify this for you to understand again:

1. PRE-INDEPENDENCE MISSIONARY SCHOOLS WERE COMPLETELY FOREIGN

2. ALL THE SCHOOLS BUILT, OWNED AND ADMINISTERED BY THE BRITISH WERE/ARE FOREIGN

3. ALL UNIVERSITIES CONTROLLED AND ESTABLISHED FROM BRITAIN WERE BRITISH

Formal education in Nigeria had strong foreign roots from Britain.

After independence, the British gradually lost control of administration of education in Nigeria. As a result, most schools (including missionary schools) are controlled and now administered by Nigerians. They are Nigerian now.

UCI was completely a british school. As soon as it became Nigerian, its name was changed to UI.

The fact that NIGERIA was ruled by BRITAIN does not make a BRITISH school NIGERIAN.

BRITAIN established a branch of their University in Nigeria at IBADAN to award BRITISH certificates.

NIGERIA came of age and established a truly NIGERIAN UNIVERSITY called University of NIGERIA Nsukka.

The problem you are having with accepting this may just have to do with your level of affiliation with the location of the first Nigerian University. It is unnecessary as the University was created in Nigeria, made for NIGERIANS and is still proudly NIGERIAN.

University of Ibadan is also Nigerian now, but that was after the BRITISH University decided to separate from it.

0monnak0da:

you did not answer my question

NO THEY ARE NOT FOREIGN.

I answered it by stating the following in my previous post;


“The acceptance of Cambridge Qualifications by Nigerian schools does not make it Nigerian. It is a foreign qualification.”

The schools are Nigerian, but the qualifications are foreign.

UCI was British, the qualifications were British.

I went further to explain the following;

“Even UNN can decide to issue a foreign qualification and still remain Nigerian. As long as the management, structure, decision making body are in Nigeria and are Nigerians”

Did you see my answer or you just want to argue for argument sake?

0monnak0da:

By law Nigerians were British Protected Persons and Nigeria was British Territory

That didn’t make Nigerians BRITISH. It meant that Nigerians were under the forced colonial authority of Britain.

Nigerians being under colonial authority meant that NIGERIANS EXISTED and the BRITISH EXISTED too.

If the British didn’t form Nigeria, we would have still had our own different identities from the British.

WE WERE NEVER BRITISH AT ANY TIME IN HISTORY. THE BRITISH ONLY ESTABLISHED THEIR COLONIAL AUTHORITY TO RULE US.

0monnak0da:


This is not about deciding standards.

THE ONLY GCE options for pupils until WAEC was created was UK GCE from one of the main Universities in exactly the same way as UCL Ibadan was issuing UL degrees. Secondary schools in Nigeria had no choice,

You have asserted that UCL was foreign because its degree was British

My question was


were seconndary schools in Nigeria that did Cambridge foreign too??

The fact that Nigeria had no other option to UCL does not make UCL Nigerian. As the name implies, UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF LONDON is owned by the BRITISH. They merely established a branch in Ibadan and MONOPOLISED UNIVERSITY education in NIGERIA as there was no option.

UNN, on the other hand, emerged as a NIGERIAN UNIVERSITY and broke that monopoly of UCL. More still, UNN issued NIGERIAN DEGREES. They were not subject to the authority of a foreign university.

As I said before, even UNN can decide to issue a foreign qualification and still remain Nigerian. As long as the management, structure, decision making body are in Nigeria and are Nigerians.

The acceptance of Cambridge Qualifications by Nigerian schools does not make the qualification Nigerian. It is a foreign qualification.
