did he not win mobo, mtv europe award and others? Must he. Reign forever?

...SAME WITH P-SQUARE , AND THEY ARE STILL LEADING.
LAGOS IS NOT THE MAGIC, BUT INDIVIDUAL INVOLVED, ASA AND JIDENNA IS A CASE STUDY.

bloodyBLOGGER:
your write-up clearly shows how sentimental and emotional you are. What has language got to do with music? Have you forgotten that music is a universal language on its own? Maybe. You expect we africans to ditch our own language just to sound appealing to americans who will still never see us fit enough to feature.

You made a wrong point that for a song to be National, it has to be felt by all regions. To correct you, I'll say for a song to be National, it has to be felt in LAGOS. For a song to blow in africa, it has to be felt in lagos too. Why? Cos lagos houses the best entertainment outfits in africa. South africa has been overshadowed by Lagos state in terms of music. That's why every musician in Nigeria has to come to lagos before they blow. That's also why every foreign artiste take lagos as the only place to do shows. Lagos is the centre of excellence and you can't take it away from it. Tell phyno and. Flavour to. Remain in the east and see whether they will be remember in Nigeria and africa. 80% of their shows can be said to hold in lagos.

As for reekado banks, he is a good artiste. But according to statistics, he is not worth the award. Politics, emotions and sentiments played a huge roll in the affair cos it wasn't a contest determined by Votes.

IS D'BANJ NOT IN LAGOS?

7lives:
Let us stop deceiving ourselves that award should have been given to Kiss Daniel based on all the criteria you sighted in your write up, on hype it should have been given to Lil kesh.
Who is Reekado banks anyway?, music is entertainment, entertainment is money, can Reekado banks pull the kind of crowd that Daniels or Kesh pulled?, even if Kesh is singing in opata language he still manage to bring in the money.
As for the award not being a SW or Yoruba award, I understand your pain but can you please convince me that those winners do not merit the awards, oh that reminds me we were made to believe that nollywood belong to the Igbos until Independence day won the best awards at the AMA.

BEFORE THE INDEPENDENCE DAY WON IT, WERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
IS OLAMIDE TO BE COMPARED TO JAZZY IN AFRICA OR THE WORLD? LEARN TO CHOOSE YOUR WORDS RIGHTLY, I'VE STAYED AWAY THERE CASE TILL YOUR COMMENT.

Adeyinka12:

esaias1:

WAS THAT HOW KWARA BECAME HISTORY?

Living4christ:
There might be none, but how do those country survive all this years with its different people and tribe? let me explain.

This words, True/Fiscal Federalism, Regional Autonomy, confederation and Aburi Accord, this are the only system of government that can make Nigeria one, united and peaceful. I can't explain what these means to u, but if u really want to know use google. This system of government has been rejected for decades, this was what even led to the broke of the civil war. So u may, ask y is it rejected? the answer is not far fetched. the north might not survive with the policy, as they are liability to Nigeria, they intentionally refuse to contribute any good thing in this country.

I CONCUR !!!

cbrass:
4 policemen or police cars?

4 policemen, am not sure, l think with two cars.

cbrass:
4 policemen or police cars?

4 policemen

Alphaoscar:
I don't understand you guys. Lai took his time to explain the purpose each vehicle serves and you guys are still on his neck


5 nos of vehicles which comprises 2 for his security aides and 1 civilian staffs is still alright and acceptable to ME.

UK PRIME MINISTER USES 2 CARS, WITH 4 POLICE... SO LIAR IS MORE IMPORTANT?

Masculity:
'WE' IGBOS or NIGER DELTA. Because last time i checked they were two separate entities.

ARE YOU SURE? LET US DECIDE, THANKS.

boxypane:
The unregistered REPUBLIC DU BIAFRA....
The Name Funny Sha.
BIA= Come
FRA= An abbreviation for the Latin word for brother.
BIAFRA= Come Brother

THE MEANING IS A GOOD ONE, WHAT'S THE MEANING OF NIGERIA?

OP... PLEASE GO BACK TO SCHOOL!. "URGED OR ASKED" IS NOT THE SAME AS "BEG". TAKE YOUR ENGLISH LESSON SERIOUS.

PentiumPro:
The noose is tightening around this guy's neck.
Unless respected Igbo leaders eat the humble pie and go to respected leaders of those people that the guy have been insulting in the North and SW to plead for their understanding for a political solution rather than a long and torturous judiciary path that can only and will lead to the sentencing of NK for the rest of his life in prison.
I don't see Kanu having the last laugh.
You don't wish harm to people like Kumuyi that never wishes harm to anyone.

IS THAT WHY YOUR STATES ARE ALWAYS BEGGING FOR BAILOUT AND LOANS? WITH THE NORTH GROWING TERRORISM.
OUR LEADERS ARE CONCERNED WITH ECONOMIC EMACIPATION OF THE IGBOLAND, KEEP WAILING WHILE WE ENSLAVE YOU ECONOMICALLY.

cckris:

Looks like Abia has a Governor, for the first time since 1999.

GOD BLESS YOU.

OP... CAN YOU TELL ME ONE COUNTRY WHERE ALL HER CITIZENS BELIEVES IN ALL HER IDEALOGIES OR COUNTRY WHERE EVERYBOBY SHARE SAME VIEW ?

GO GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT.

NORTH "MAY" NOT RECOVER AGAIN, APC WAKE UP.

Freegift75:
Why are Nigerian youth, mostly the jobless ones occupying Nairaland are becoming obstacle to peace of this nation?

How long will you continue to criticise instead of putting all hands on deck to curb this insurgency?

A fresh news just released and the next thing is to curse APC... Na wa oooooo

No wonder the nation is technologically retarded because our youth are myopic in their thinking

I wish our gallant soldiers victory over the evil animals in human nature

APC WHILE IN OPPOSITION DID SET THIS NEGATIVE MEDIA WAR, AND NOW IS WORKING AGAINST THEM.

irondome:
Stop getting stuck in the past, we are in the 21st century. Obama's father is a Kenyan; by your logic, the US is ruled by a Kenyan. Of course, we know the truth.

Bukola Saraki is Yoruba, speaks Yoruba and most likely do not even understand Hausa.

THAT MEANS DELTA STATE AND RIVERS ARE NOW IGBO STATES, HAHAHAHA...
I CONCUR OH! %)
NA JOKE OH.

ODVanguard:
I laugh at you in Igbo language. You need serious help boy.

WHICH HELP? OOH...LIKE $200 MILLION IMF LOAN.

APC HOW MARKET?

Adebowaletunji:

I CONDEMN IN STRONGEST TERMS ARMY BRUTALITY ON SHIITES

RESPECT!!!

ODVanguard:
Being financially solvent means being able to pay all financial obligations in a timely manner and still have liquid spending capital left over.
Now, I'm sure that's not what you really meant to say, being as hateful, angry and confused as you are.

SORRY... FINANCIAL INSOLVENT, HOPE YOU GOT THE MESSAGE? HAHAHAHA

vedaxcool:
I won't say igbos but biafraudians which refers to people whose candidate lost the presidential elections and pray day and night something bad happens in Nigeria.

YOU WON, YET YOU ARE BUSY BEGGING FOR BAILOUT AND LOANS, YOUR STATES ARE FINANCIALLY INSOLVENT.
POWER WITHOUT EMACIPATION IS A CURSE,

Muzzammil64:
Smh... So 'emirate' is an hausa word shebi? Fine, emir is gotten from emirate. So does dat make emir an hausa word. 'Emir' is an Arab word which means 'leader(of a muslim community)'. So ilorin having an emir means it is a muslim community. It does not mean dat d community belongs to d hausa.

Lemme shock you. If lagos today becomes islamised, d title of 'Oba' automatically becomes 'emir' (remember I said if). So emir or emirate is not an hausa title and doesn't hav its origin in hausa. Rather, it is a religiously borrowed word from Arabic.

Moreso, we d elites are nt also in dispute of d fact dat we came for oduduwa. We only got islamised. Alhamdulilah.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE FOLLOWING...

Afonja had been assisted by Salih Janta, also called Shehu Alimi, a leader of the local Fulani. In 1824 Afonja was assassinated and Alimi's son Abdusalami became Emir. [ 3 ]
Ilorin became an emirate of the Sokoto Caliphate.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilorin_Emirate

opey25:
you aren't educated at all.there is nothing like kwara emirate.we only have ilorin emirate ,there is a difference between ilorin and kwara.kwara state has lot of tribes like yoruba,fulani,barbaric,nupe etc .most towns in kwara south like offa, omuaran,oro osi have their own oba.they are not under the jurisdiction of emir of ilorin.most towns in kwara north like lafiagi,pategi are have their own paramount ruler.the present governor of kwara is a yoruba man from ifelodun local govt.he has never claimed to be a fulani man.

MY BROTHER LIKE YOU RIGHTLY SAID, I LACK EDUCATION... BUT YOU LACK OBJECTIVE, YOUR AIM SHOULD BE, TO DISCLAIM MY FACTS NOT HURL CHEAP REMARKS.
1. WHY EMIR INSTEAD OF OBA IN KWARA STATE?
2. ARE YOU SAYING Dr. Abubakar Olusola Saraki WAS CONFUSED WHEN HE SAID "AM A FULANI MAN"?

http://sunnewsonline.com/new/how-buharis-coup-saved-me/

Muzzammil64:
Sir, no one is saying ILORIN was never dominated by the hausa-fulani. What we re saying is that it has been fully recovered with force or war. *get this straight*

MY BROTHER, PLEASE SHOW ME ANY PROOF (LINK) OF RECOVERY. THERE ELITES ARE CLAIMING FULANI, READ WIKIPEDIA, IS CALLED EMIRATE, THAT'S WHY THEY HAVE EMIR INSTEAD OF OBA.

irondome:
In the current dispensation, obas and emirs are a bit over rated in actual governance. The central control happen at the governors' office; and the last time I checked, the yorubas have been in power in Ilorin since 1999.

In the current scheme of things, the same ilorin yoruba man out played your alleged hausa "master" to become the senate president.

In summary, today's world politics is not won by those who wield cutlass and grenade, but by those who deploy the right strategy.

Dr. Abubakar Olusola Saraki..."My mother was from Iseyin in Oyo State while my father was from Ilorin in Kwara State. My great-great grandfather originated from Mali and I am talking about some 150 to 200 years ago. And they are Fulani and that is where we got our Fulani connection from".

The Ilorin Emirate is a traditional statebased on the city of Ilorin in Kwara State, Nigeria. It is considered to be one of the Banza Bakwai, or copy-cats of the Hausa Kingdoms. Afonja had been assisted by Salih Janta, also called Shehu Alimi, a leader of the local Fulani. In 1824 Afonja was assassinated and Alimi's son Abdusalami became Emir. [ 3 ]Ilorin became an emirate of the Sokoto Caliphate.

NOTE: STOP FIGHTING THE TRUTH.

SINCE WHEN DID THE YORUBAS STARTED USING EMIRS, SINCE THEY HAVE THE MAJORITY?

irondome:
unfortunately for you, you would have to wait till eternity because the Yorubas do not cause trouble. They value peace and their lives so much that they would never have cause to carry dangerous arms and ammunition.

If only other tribes would borrow a leave from the Yorubas, Nigeria would be such a peaceful nation to live in.

PEACEFULLY...LOST KWARA STATE TO THE HAUSAS, SLAVVES.
