PoliticsRe: Governor Dave Umahi Is Real Mr Projects, Check Out His Recent Projects (Photos) by kayjay69(m): 12:30pm On May 28, 2019
Ebonyi is a state that probably has one of the lowest allocations from the Federal Gov. I am not sure about their level of industrialisation or if there are businesses concentrated there as a means of raising other forms of revenue. And believe me when I say that it won't be as if this govt is not corrupt but it is obvious that this govt is working.

Ebonyi is evidence that all the states in Nigeria can have some form of meaningful progress, it just depends on the vision and determination of whoever is in charge.

If every state govt could embark on infrastructural development that is urgently needed by the constituents and invest in human capital development in a honest, direct and unbiased manner, Nigeria will definitely be a better place in as little as 20 years from now. All our problems will not have varnished, however we will surely be better off than we are right now.

In saner climes, this governor would be in the running for President but in Nigeria we prefer to bicker over who is from where and what religion.

Well worth more person, you are the perfect reason why Nigeria as a country is the way it is. I am sure you don't even understand what I wrote and even if you did you couldn't put together an intelligent response because like you and your ilk you are programmed zombies. Zombies who only see things as they seem not as they really are.

You are the perfect example of a Nigerian who deserves the leaders it has.

PoliticsRe: Fulani Herdsmen Storm Akoko Palace, Threaten To Kill Monarch by kayjay69(m): 2:05pm On May 26, 2019
You dont even understand, Tinubu does not give a damn if Fulani Herdsmen overrun the entire South West. In so far as his presidential aspiration is intact, then for him there is no problem. Well, my grouse is not with Tinubu I mean why should it be. Tinubu is only doing what Tinubu has always done all along and what most, if not all, politicians would do. My grouse is with the stupid Yoruba people, my brothers, who really do believe Tinubu is the next best thing after sliced bread. It is sad that despite the way the ruling class have treated Nigerians in general, we still look to them for some sort of guidance. So basically it is until when Tinubu (or some other compromised so-called Yoruba Leader) comes out to condemn these attacks that we will emerge from our slumber? Is it not obvious what the real agenda of the Hausa-Fulani is and what it has been especially under the current occupant of Aso Rock?

I could care less what party does what, APC this and PDP that but when it becomes obvious that one is in mortal danger of losing his own lands, property and source of livelihood, then I think one had better not wait for some useless elders, one had better be armed to the teeth and be ready to defend what is one's own.

It is just sad that Nigerians do not know their history neither do they know that history often repeats itself. These Fulani were never a part of this geographical entity to begin with, they migrated here. And ever since then they have only advanced their cause through war and destruction. They are patient, They do not relent and They have vowed never to stop until all of what is Nigeria is firmly under their thumb. Brush it aside, you simpleton, claim it will never happen and watch things as they gradually unfold.

This is why I'll keep saying the best recourse of the SW is to band together with the SE and SS. For all the faults of the SS and SE (no one is perfect, everyone with his own), there has never been a time anyone from there sought to kill a Yoruba person for his land, property and to impose his religious beliefs and way of life. Our differences are still more manageable, it is only sad that politicians have used these to further their aspirations. This SW and North marriage has never worked and will not work. It will only continue to prove that the fulani's are treacherous as always and the yorubas who choose to go with them are stupid.

Tinibu knew that it would get to this extent, but the clown gives no damn hence his support for Aso rock terrorist.
He's ready to send his brothers to their early graves because of his selfish ambition he won't achieve.

I Saw a thread where one afonja clown was insulting Igbos, telling Igbos that they won't succeed in separating them from Fulanis that they are inseparable..

"No matter how Igbos try, they will never separate us from Fulanis, they are very mischievous and are hell bent in causing disaffection between yorubas and Fulanis. Our relationship with Fulanis remains strong. Igbos are jealous of our mutual relationship with them that's why they are always emphasinzing on Herdsmen issue constantly

TV/MoviesRe: Game Of Thrones Petition: Over 700, 000 Fans Want Season 8 Remade by kayjay69(m): 11:16am On May 19, 2019
Brother, I dont think so. They have book 1-5, all they had to do was build on the characters they already have and make a compelling storyline for example, Daenerys wasnt supposed to change all too soon this could have been done gradually cos she was a heroine up until season 8 episode 3 sef. The war between the living and the dead should have been the last war at Kings Landing NOT Winterfell and they owed it to the fans to have Jon Snow atleast battle the Night king. Look the night king character was more important than Cersei and all the other villains, he was the ultimate villian and his coming had been hyped from season 1 to 7, they owed it to the fans to have had that at the end and also to have had the battle for atleast 2 episodes. These are simple things that they could have easily done, they didnt need the writer to complete his books in order to do that. If u look at season 8 it had alot of inconsistencies compared to previous seasons, it's just evidence that they didnt put in much thought.
AkpaMgbor:
It's a genuine excuse. I have book 1 to 4..Martins is taking too much time to complete his book..the movie writers only tweaked some scenes but the dialogue and majority of the plot remained the same..even at that, the shows(from season one till date) still paled in comparison to the books...the books are THAT good! I doubt the writers of the show can come up with anything more intriguing than what the author will..
TV/MoviesRe: Game Of Thrones Petition: Over 700, 000 Fans Want Season 8 Remade by kayjay69(m): 10:26am On May 19, 2019
If you watched it from the beginning, you can tell that whatever goodwill the producers had, they've lost it and it will affect viewership for their spin-off series. They did not have to end it like they are now. I've heard series of excuses, about how the writer of the book hasn't released book 6 and 7 so they dont have content. I'm pretty sure the writers of the TV show could have come up with something better, even if it meant taking 3 years off just to come up with an outstanding season 7 and 8. 7 was manageable, we got some nice surprises but 8 was downright predictable which is the exact opposite of what GOT is known for and the surprises were quite disappointing really. If they had ended it well it would have stood out as probably the best TV show ever but this is why I'll always pick Breaking Bad ahead of any TV show, from start to finish it never disappointed.

BusinessRe: "Sanusi Persecuted Me As He Thought I Wanted His Job At CBN" – Cecilia Ibru by kayjay69(m):
Yes ma I totally agree with all you said but please can you also help us shed light on how you ran Oceanic Bank Plc like a private enterprise using depositors funds as you pleased? No one is perfect, Sanusi is far from perfect and his tenure as CBN Governor did garner alot of controversy some for the right and some for the wrong reasons but as far as removing those CEOs, HE WAS ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON!!!

It is a shame he didn't remove more, probably couldn't do so due to politics. They were all corrupt administrators using depositors funds for personal gain, no different from our corrupt politicians. Even after some of these banks got CBN bailout money or govt intervention fund, it was the same end result of mismanagement, so in my opinion they just had to go. A lot of bad loans with little or no collateral were given to questionable companies fulfilling little or no requirements, under the watches of these so-called CEOs. Overall, this created a negative perception of our banking industry and in turn affected the economy. And whenever they ran into murky waters, the government was always there to help.

Money that ought to be used for some other pressing needs somewhere else in the country was used to bail these banks out. For this and this alone Sanusi was right. Some may argue that his persecution was selective, I don't doubt it cos the evidence points in that direction but you can never argue that those CEOs were not corrupt and that they had not lost their way.



chinambusay:
Cecilia Ibru, the former Managing Director of the defunct Oceanic Bank has for the first opened up on her ordeal in court and she disclosed that the Emir of Kano and former Central Bank Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi persecuted her badly because he thought she wanted his job at the CBN.

The economic guru who disclosed that she got married before 20 and also had her son in January before her 20th birthday, revealed that her travails in court got her really depressed. Recounting her ordeal, Cecilia Ibru who stated that Sanusi persecuted her because he thought she wanted his job at the CBN said; 

I won’t say betrayal, including (Lamido) Sanusi (the then Governor of the Central Bank) himself, but people that I thought would come and help me did not do so. However, God raised other people to help me. Back then when I was in office, if I was at home, you wouldn’t find a parking space in my compound; it was always filled with cars and people who wanted one favour or the other from the bank. But after that episode, everywhere became empty.


One day, a man came to visit me at home and when he was going, there were no security personnel or driver. So, he asked what happened to them and I said the bank had withdrawn all of them on the order of Sanusi. They withdrew everything. He said that wasn’t good. The man asked me what it would cost me to put in place some security measures and I said about N1m. He said I was a popular personality and I couldn’t go around without some form of protection. He paid that N1m every month until I went to London. And when I got there, I informed him I had travelled. I can’t forget that kind of a person, and guess what, he is a Muslim.

LiteratureRe: Wole Soyinka Replies Reno Omokri Over Chinua Achebe Being Better Than Him by kayjay69(m): 12:20pm On May 09, 2019
Brother God bless you oh. We Nigerians love drama and stupid unnecessary comparisons to the point where it clearly makes zero sense.

In my opinion and in addition to what the person I am quoting said, Wole Soyinka's works deserved the Nobel Prize in Literature. I think why most people cannot identify with his works is because of how complex he writes.
Chinua Achebe is a legend in his own right and if I could, I would also award him the aforementioned prize. Through secondary school, I could identify better with Achebe's works than Soyinka's because atleast to me they were simpler to read and understand.

I may not be the best qualified person to give a detailed critique of both men's works but even if I were I wouldn't want to. Both men and their works are legend. Comparing them especially as it relates to the Nobel Prize, makes no sense. It will not diminish or add to their legacies. But Nigerians in our usual fashion will turn this into a ethnic bashing fiesta. I guess its another chance for us to reveal how shallow and ugly we are rather than focus on more important issues that affect us all.
StOla:
Why do people fail to learn that literature is not about Prose alone.

The 3 genres of literature are Prose(Novel), Drama(Play), and Poetry.

While Soyinka ticks the box in all, Achebe ticks only the Prose box.

While Soyinka is an acclaimed Playwright and Poet, Achebe is an acclaimed Novelist.

Soyinka won the Nobel for the dual reason of Drama and Poetry, and this much reason was stated in his award justification, as the reason for all other awardees are stated.




So why are people comparing an apple to an orange when the award for best fruit was given to an orange on the basis that for that years consideration, the sweetest orange was the decider?

This is the type of dumb a** commentary that nairaland has come to be known for.
Sanusi sacked owners of banks, was it within his powers as CBN Governor to do so?

What were these so-called Bank owners doing with the bank's funds they were entrusted with by their customers?

Did Sanusi's actions restore public and investor confidence to the banking sector?

As much as I may have had my reservations about Emir Sanusi (who is far from perfect, flawed as any one of us) during his tenure as the CBN Gov (especially towards the end), I personally know that his actions helped sanitise that industry. And upon his ascending the throne of Emir, he has arguably been the lone voice calling for progressive change in the North. If you understand Nigeria, you will understand that North Nigeria as it is currently populated is and will continue to be a massive stumbling block for Nigeria. I do not care much for his politics but on the social side and what he is pushing for in the North, he has my respect.

We ought to be standing together and condemning corruption, electoral violence and anything that is retrogressive in nature. But as you can see the problem with Nigeria and some Nigerians is we often leave the message and focus on the messenger. We often prefer to settle scores than stand with the truth. We are who we have always been and will remain this way, I dont even see a way out of this anymore. We are fractured beyond repair I swear.

CelebritiesRe: Peter Okoye: I Choose My Wife And Kids Over My Brothers by kayjay69(m): 6:40pm On May 06, 2019
If he dodged the question, people like you will read another meaning into that so I do not think it is fair to bash him on the basis of this. And in truth, even if he did dodge it, the truth is out there already he has chosen his wife and children over his brothers. The whole fracas between them had already been made public before now so what he says or doesn't say makes absolutely no difference. I really think you don't like him that much and you are simply using what he said as an excuse to vent your views of him.

I would love for them to sweep their differences aside. The brothers have to move on, those of you calling for reconciliation and yabbing Peter or his wife for being the cause, I don't see you pointing at the other side. In cases such as these, I am certain there's enough blame to go around and everyone is most likely at fault cos no one is angel. Peter won't leave Lola, that ship has sailed a long time ago. Infact the way I see it, the more the brother's oppose him the more he feels justified by his choice
Jude should get over it, he is the senior brother and he should be the one pulling them together rather than fighting his brother for going against their late parent's wishes (which was what caused this whole thing from the beginning according to what we all read though different people may take different views). The way I see it is very simple if Peter did disobey, it's on Peter, it is between Peter, his parents and God. Jude shouldn't act as an umpire of sorts and they shouldn't have let all of that get in between them and their business ventures. They are all grown men and Lola isn't married to the other two brothers for christ's sake, she is married to Peter. I honestly wish them well and hope they get back together, all three of them.

CrimeRe: Nigerian Lady Schooling In Canada, Cries Out Over Alleged Suicidal Level Racism by kayjay69(m):
And you have said it all, exactly the way it needs to be said.

See the truth of the matter is it is a white man's world. They invented Nepotism and Racism. It is a tool they have used over the years to their advantage and to the disadvantage of other coloured folks.

Now I wish that coloured people (Africans, Indians and other nationals) could unite on the basis of this. But then you see us jostling to get ahead in line of who will be the white man's b***h. Forgive me to say but this is common with lighter skinned blacks and Indians, some of whom feel the colour of their skin makes them more like the white man and less like the black man. So they gravitate ignorantly toward their master whilst casting aspersions on others who they consider to be inferior. This is probably the basis of the heavily reviled caste system in India and South Africa. The whiter your skin colour, the better your chances in life.

But away from all of that, in my opinion the key solution to stopping racism is to develop our own and love our own. I know it's difficult to do cause on one hand we have African leadership who are basically advanced slaves, rich through stolen wealth but still slaves, they think they are wise but really they are slaves. Cos a slave always has a master and they take their orders from the powers that be, the ones who installed them or keeps them installed and helps them launder and keep their ill-gotten wealth. On the other hand, the masses who are slaves, some by choice and others by condition. The onus falls to all of us in society who do not fall into these two categories, who know better through exposure, who have been victims of racism but would like something better for our people.

To go into how we can do about the aforementioned will be lengthy and I do not wish to take away anything from the person I am quoting but the bottom line is we must love ourselves and this will take on various forms. It's a hard thing to do really but I think it starts from there. We won't get it right in a generation, maybe not in three but if we are determined we will get it right in the end. Unfortunately the evidence on ground suggests the opposite cos for us to even have a chance at getting things right we ought to be headed in the right direction, that isn't even happening.
So such cases as the lady in the video and many more will happen, I guess it will just have to be a case of putting up with whatever comes. Canada is still better compared to a whole lot of other countries. It's not also confined to blacks vs whites. For example, the Japanese are heavily racist toward the Koreans and Chinese how do you explain that. Germans toward other Europeans they refer to as inferior. And no matter what, there will still continue to exist pockets of racist behaviour here and there. My advice to my peeps in diaspora is to hold your head up, realise it's a white man's world and just keep doing what you do. Good thing is not all white people are racist, I guess one just has to hope to across the good ones.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria Requires $200b To Bridge Energy Gap - Shell by kayjay69(m): 8:57am On Apr 26, 2019
Even if you give Nigeria $500bn to bridge its energy gap, it will only find it's way into private pockets, we know how these things work.

timesfive2:
Shell Nigeria Exploration & Production Co (SNEPCo) Managing Director (MD) Bayo Ojulari has said between $40 billion and $200 billion Nigeria needs to bridge its energy gap.

He said a nation without a secured energy system could not claim to have power.

In his presentation titled: “Nigeria’s energy security and sustainable development in Nigeria: The way forward”, at the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) Oloibiri Lecture Series and Energy Forum 2019 in Abuja, Ojulari lamented that 70 per cent of the country’s installed electricity capacity is lost without reaching consumers.

According to him, because of aging equipment and vandalism, 70 per cent of the populace has less than four hours electricity daily.

He said: “Energy is not standing alone, it is about its impact on the society.”

Ojulari said in the next 10 years, energy demand is expected to double, adding that by 2050, solar could emerge as the dominant power energy source. But oil and gas need would continue.”

Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Group managing Director Dr Maikanti Baru said despite abundant oil and gas reserves, the country still experiences shortages in electric power.

According to him, based on Nigeria’s Energy consumption current forecast, statistics showed an increase from 6GW in 2015 to 30GW by 2025. The primary source of the current power supply, he added, is hydro and gas.

Baru insisted that the future consumption, which is expected to drive growth by 2025, would need aggressive development of gas and renewable projects to meet the exponential demand.

Nice one bro.

PeacenLove2:
I agree with you to large extent. And for clarity, like I mentioned I am not particular about any tribe but I just think there is a problem with the zoning that is in place and leaving out one zone and we expect them to be happy about it. It's just not okay especially since we won't let them go.

And frankly speaking I do not know that anything can solve the Nigerian problem. I agree it's not a tribal or culture thing. It's just an average Nigerian; our orientation, our ideologies are seriously flawed.

While I agree (and i have always done so, feel free to check any previous posts of mine) that the SE should be given a shot at the Presidency by both parties in 2023, i do not believe that will get us where we should be as a country as we will still continue to have the same discussions along tribal, religious and other lines as it divides us. An igbo presidency may convince some (definitely not all cos I know there are igbos out there who will never forgive Nigeria and who believe that their ultimate destiny as an ethnic group is to have their own country, and they have every right to feel this way) igbos that they have a stake in this entity called Nigeria but an Igbo presidency will not solve Nigeria's problems. Quite frankly, I do not think anyone individual from anyone region can solve Nigeria's problems. And I think that is more important than seeing the presidency zoned to anyone region (inclusive of mine the SW).

If we are interested in wholesome change and not palliatives then we must tell ourselves the truth, Nigeria as it is constituted is bound to fail even if we have the best leaders possible or we were to outsource our leadership to proven leadership from another country, I am not sorry to say it will all still come crumbling down. We are fractured in a lot of ways, it's not just leadership, its followership as well, it's not just one ethnic group, its the lot of us. And we have lost our minds, our definition of what is right or wrong to the point where it will take time, years even, generations maybe. That is why I'll keep insisting that it is either Nigeria gets restructured to have strong regions and a weak centre or we simply split and go our separate ways.

As a Nigerian from Yoruba descent, if the presidency does not go to the East come 2023, I will personally start my own referendum for the Igbos.

Haba! If they are good enough to be part of Nigeria, they must be good enough to be president. Having expressed my personal views on this matter, I really don't care about a person's tribe and it's ridiculous sentiments like this that keeps dividing us.

The presidency is no tribe's birth right. We need qualified, well rounded people to lead us in the coming years. Enough of these venomous vicious politics.
PoliticsRe: Yoruba’ll Produce Next President In 2023 — Afenifere by kayjay69(m):
Statements such as this one you posted are often very misleading. When you say "the yourbas have enjoyed..." you are hastily equating yoruba politicians (and their cohorts) to the generality of Yoruba people (40million or so in number). Unless ofcourse you mean to create mischief, there can be no denying the fact that the average Yoruba man has not benefited more in comparison to the average Nigerian from other parts of the country.
If there is pls point me in such direction and I mean tangible things that have benefitted the Yoruba people as a whole as compared to other geo-political zones in the country.

The truth is politicians across Nigeria have continued to benefit by illegally enriching themselves whilst enslaving all Nigerians. Case closed.

nazicartel:
but on a serious note, the both parties should present southern candidates, south east to be specific... the Yorubas have really enjoyed in this present Democratic era, the Hausa's too... APC also has strong Eastern members too...

Brother I don't even know how we ended up 5th on that list higher than Kenya.
Zoharariel:
The only Country I fear on this list is Algeria.

Ok, let's take a look at some of her inventories.

Air Force

Attack: SU-24 (22 Units) and SU-34 check

Fighter: MiG-29 (32 units) and SU-30 (58 units)

Attack Helicopter: Mi-24 (34 units), Mi-28 (42 units) and Mi-26 Heavy Transport (14 units)

Transport: C-130 (14 units), II-76 (14 units) and C-295 (5 units).

Army

I feel like weeping for Nigeria because if war breaks out as the spirit of orunmila is telling me, walai, you will see your mother and call her your father. grin

Ordinary Boko Haram with only Hilux Pick-ups & GPMGs, your soldiers are running into another Country's territory for cover.

Tanks: T-62 (800 units), T-72 (500 units) and T-90 (575 units).

APC/AFV: BMPT Terminator 2 (300 units), BMP-1 (685 units), BMP-2 (760 units), BMP-3 (100 units), Nimr (3000 units) and ZSU-23-4 (300 units).

S-300PMU-2 missile systems (8 regiments: one regiment consists of 12 launchers of 4 missiles each).

Pantsir-S1/S2 (108 units)

Tor-M2 (48 batteries)

BUK-M2 (32 launchers)

Why the fvck was I born in this shithole in the first place? I am supposed to be a "GOC" in the Algerian, Serbian or Russian Army.

Look at how these useless cursed politicians in Abuja are endangering my life & family by leaving Nigeria vulnerable to attacks & invasion?

Out of all these military equipments that I've listed so far, Nigeria only has 1 Transport (C-130 Hercules), a handful of Mi-35 Helos and maybe 20 units of T-72 Battle tanks.

I mean how could a whole giant of Afrika not have an S-300 or S-400 to secure our airspace & prevent missiles from Cameroun, Ghana & Kenya from landing on our heads?

And Instead of the bastards to go to Russia and order dozens of SU-30, MiG-29, SU-34, the bastards went to Amerika to waste $496 Million on 12 useless & decommissioned aircrafts called Tucanos.

Ogun will kill anybody that will quote me and ask how we will maintain these aircrafts. How are Egypt, Ethiopia, Algeria & South Afrika maintaining theirs?

Only 4 out of the 7 ww2 era F-7 jets bought by Ebele Jonathan are currently operational.

Boko Haram shot one down with Bazooka in Adamawa about 4 years ago and 2 collided during the independence day training last year.

They sit down in Abuja doing absolutely nothing to curb the growing menace of insecurity & insurgency.

The only thing they're good at is looting & embezzling the treasury without making any future plans for the Country.

Ordinary 30,000Naira minimum wage, they cannot sacrifice to put smiles on the faces of the ever beaten & battered citizenry.

They will ask you whether you're praying for war to justify their ineptitude & incompetence - with their dead-brains, forgetting that to be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace.

20years ago, nobody had anticipated that Nigeria would ever be at the mercy of a rag-tag terrorist organization (Boko Haram) - negotiating with them & even paying them ransoms.

As you make your bed, so must you lie on it.

Let me round up my list before I retire to the nearest beer parlour for the Easter jubilation, gyration, celebration & fornication.

Navy

Submarines: Project 636 (4 units), Project 877EKM (2 units) and the Romeo-Class Submarine (2 units).

Amphibious Warfare Vessels: San Giorgio-class assault ship (1 unit) and Kalat Beni Hammed (2 units).

Frigates: Koni-class frigates (3 units) and Meko-A200 (2 units).

Corvette: Adhafer-class (3 units), Nanuchka-class (3 units) and Djebel Chenoua-class (4 units).

I leave you with a video of the Algerian Army S-400Triumf in Action.

Until we meet again, I remain Zoharariel Underscore Obatala a.k.a Iskander-M of Ijebuland. grin
