This criminal is still out here scamming those gullible souls looking for 'signs and wonders'. This so called Reverend is an unrepentant scam artist, and if you encounter him anywhere "performing" please do not hesitate to expose him.

Good.

There's only one governor in Abia state and his name is Okezie Ikpeazu. God is our strength and by His grace we'll overcome this criminal attempt to truncate democracy in Abia state.

[b]If Ikwerre doesn't want to be seen as Igbo, that's fine and dandy. But please do not vilify the rest of the Igbo to justify your stance. We are all free to be whoever we wish to be, but just spare us these phantom tales of Igbo trying to strangle you in your sleep or whatever fables you think are necessary to affirm your position. We don't need it.

You'll have to admit, it's not always the Igbos fault for mistaking you as a fellow Igbo. Your spoken language and culture betray the Igbo within you, so if not told otherwise, the average Igbo might mistake you for a fellow Igbo. Besides, some of the wiser Ikwerres insist on maintaining an Igbo identity. You will see them actively involved in Ohaneze and other Igbo organizations.

To further complicate matters, from personal experience, I've known Ikwerres who balk at the notion of being Igbo, but are quick to remind you that "we are all Igbo" whenever they feel its favorable to them. They keep their Igbo identity in the back pocket and whenever it's suitable or profitable to them they can always play that card. The typical Igbo, bearing no animosity towards them, would always identify with the Ikwerre whenever he comes flashing his Igbo card.

When Chibuike Amaechi came to campaign for Buhari in Aba last year, he was holding his Igbo card sky-high for all to see...declaring that after all he is Igbo and Goodluck Jonathan is not. I had never known Amaechi to demonstrate any interest in Igbo affairs(to be fair, I've never heard him deny being Igbo either),but for the avoidance of doubt and to gain what he came to seek he surely declared himself a full blooded Igbo man that day.[/b]

Hmmm...business is booming my brother!

Hahaaa...zombies said he bought Dubai mansions by selling snakes. I've heard it all now!!!

Northerners do bear Kabiru too. It is likely a northerner.

Ola Sa'ad Ibrahim, the former CDS is from Kwara state. He's a northerner.

For your information, guys, oil blocs in Nigeria are not allocated or shared scot-free. They given or sold out in bidding processes. As usual, the highest bidder gains ownership of such blocs.

A bidding process, if any existed or exists, that is certainly fraught with manipulation and nepotism. So, it just so happened that IBB's in laws had the highest bid, and in Abdulsalami's little stint in office his in laws also happened to tender the highest bid for a lucrative oil bloc.
Get it together man, it doesn't take a genius to see what's going on here.

If it had been a male blogger that's organizing such program for guys only, the Internet wouldn't have had peace. Words like chauvinism and misogyny would be flying around. Wonder if there's a female version of those words sef

Misandry

He's single and handsome? Lol are you pimping the guy out? That is a crime around these parts. On a serious note, his best bet is to try as much as possible to make contact with a relative, or even a friend to a friend of a relative because it would be difficult for a total stranger to take him in. It's not impossible though, my Uncle once took in and housed some random Yoruba dude for 3 years.

Why must he go to Ohio anyway? Since his friend over there is no longer willing to accommodate him, he might as well look for opportunities elsewhere. If he's Igbo, I'll suggest he start making inquiries to if and where his clan has their meetings while he's still in New York. He would certainly find some assistance there. If he's not Igbo, it's likely the Yoruba and others have such meetings too. Someone else already suggested he should try and find a Nigerian church close to him.

Egbe leee!!!!

Chris Olukolade is still the army spokeperson in this report. #fake story

vote ivyy for miss nairaland!

Old story(report from 2014) does not make it a fake story. Just means that Boko Haram has been operating in Benue and the rest of the middle-belt longer than most people realize.

An old friend of mine serving as an officer with the Nigerian Army special forces was ambushed and butchered in Benue state by so-called Fulani herdsman as he led a small unit in response to distress calls from a local community that was under attack. This happened almost 3 years ago, and I concluded then that these were no ordinary herdsman, even though they were observed to be Fulanis.

A great fellow was lost that day.

Good stuff, I'll take my time to digest it.

Well, chubby face deserved a nasty response. You just run up to people on twitter and start insulting them and their mother...Reno even went easy on him.

If Buhari did not go to sch and he was able to be a state governor, pet minister, GOC, Head of States, PTF boss, then certainly, he must be a genius because most of our present day graduates cannot manage any of those offices successfully.

Successfully? Do you see the state of this country? About 40 years of military rule by morons who had no business being in power is what wrecked this country.

Still borrow-posing.

[b]I won't believe anything coming from Buhari's DSS. IPOB did not attack anyone in the vicinity of the major cities where they have significant numbers, but they went all the way to a village in Isiukwuato to kidnap some Fulani men. Going from earlier reports, the Fulani were fomenting trouble there as they do everywhere, and some members of a local vigilante took it upon themselves to set them straight. It's amazing that with all the trouble and mayhem the Fulani have unleashed in the north-central, south-west, south-south and south-east, the worthless security operatives(who have always failed to secure anyone) always emerge to side with them, and place blame on the other party. It's never their fault.

Last I checked, they even occupied most of Agatu community after sacking the indigenous people, and had the audacity to shoot at government officials that came afterwards to assess the damages, and they have traced their footsteps back to Olu Falae's domain to unleash more terror. If it's open season, then it's open season for all. The bullets that killed scores in Agatu can also be directed the other way to end up in Fulani skulls. If southerners can't sleep peacefully, then let the Fulani not sleep peacefully either. [/b]
