[color=royalblue]I actually saw this story, but it doesn't change the fact that the wife wanted to run away with half of his fortune.

Like....HALF

You want to divorce the devil, and run with half of his property?[/color]

She 'worked' for it

Unfortunately it is only at the national level there is an attempt to pretend there will be power sharing.

When audu was there, the issue was that the igalas had been ruling and would not release power. Now bello, an ebira is doing the same thing. Short of a force majeur this will continue indefinitely unless there is a major upset, at which point the tribe that enters rinses and repeats.

This is also what wike an Ikwerre man has done in ph if I am not miscafonting.

You're right in all but your last paragraph, i believe SIM is a riverine man and not Ikwerre like Odili, Amaechi and Wike... Itsrm can correct me if I'm wrong. Back to the power sharing issue, when we were in the University I asked my hostel mate (he was a son of a prominent TIV doctor and heir to his father's hospital) why the Idomas cannot be Governor of Benue State... man laughed himself silly even the idomas amongst us were laughing, funny enough the matter extend reach their Kparakpo BSSU(Benue State students union) Idoma na vice and Tiv na president, no matter what.

Nope. He is from kogi central. He wants the central to rule for 16 years to equate the east Meanwhile West has never rule the state.


Such is the pathetic case of kogi state.

The best shot the west has had I think was when Audu died and Faleke thought he'd take over. Those Mopa, Yagba, Kabba, Ijumu people etc will have to wait another 8 years because Johnny Bravo is not it at all

PRESS RELEASE

We use this medium to demand an apology from the UK government. We weren't only harassed, manhandled, and rough handled by their immigration staff, the UK government denied us the hand job and Mouth Action services our principal paid for to some high class oloshos before leaving Nigeria.

We also apologize to Mr. Adrian Brian of the UK Immigration Services for splashing his hands and uniform with our 'akamu' during our principal's genital and rectal inspections. It's not our fault; the touch was heavenly.

Sign,

EponObi

Epon ke? Chai una no go kill me

Obi supporters have disappeared from this thread.

Perhaps, they have gone to their WhatsApp groups to agree on how to respond.

Lol.

You are wicked 🤣🤣🤣🤣

hopefulLandlord:
These numbers would most likely not stand up to scrutiny. many of these "users" own several accounts. yours truly has 4 (four) different WhatsApp accounts and I'm active in ALL of them so I will be regarded as 4 WhatsApp accounts that's active. Also many of these Twitter accounts are operated by single people many ran by bots even Elon alluded to this and the owners didn't deny.

people also overrate the influence of social media. Social media isn't influencing non social media people as much as the reverse, you think most of these "obedients" who are Yoruba and are criticising Wole Soyinka on SM right now would be doing so in real life and therefore influence Yorubas around them to criticise Soyinka? These social media people try to align with the trends just because they want to swim with the tides and may actually share a different opinion in real life. that probably was why it shocked most people that Ekiti was won by Tinubu when many thought differently. many of them don't share the opinions they post but are just moving with the crowd. add in algorithms that make you see things you agree with and shuts out opposing opinions then you can be deceived into thinking what you're seeing is how the real world is and can be in for rude awakening when it doesn't go that way.


on a slightly related note. I don't know if I'm surrounded by the most idiotic of Tinubu and Obi supporters but anytime I try to pick their brains to confirm the talk of "this generation of youths now think for themselves and will not be told what to think" I can't help but conclude that this is actually the youth that doesn't even know what to think but wait for some social media posts from people who are trying to maintain a particular narrative so these supporters can run with it. that's why a speech of 2hours 30min would be cut to 5 seconds and then go viral that the giver of the speech said something stupid. when you eventually do your own finding to confirm the stupidity of the speaker you'd accidentally confirm the stupidity of those who watched 5 second video and if you dare try to ask "What if this video doesn't show the context?" you'd be hounded for being obeedeeot or agbado. In my opinion this is the dumbest set of youths we've ever had, empty headed people who can't even question anything so long it fits their preconceived conclusions and anybody who doesn't do the same would be hounded, maybe cancelled. Most won't notice this cuz they're inside the game but just stand by and watch them go and you might share the same conclusion as me to a varying degree

@ the bolded, Desmond Elliot's 'Kids' speech is a perfect example

He won ,his successor won ...yet you feel Igbos don't like him ?

Let's see how APC would repay him

I didn't say Igbos, I said hateful ones. Why are you being a bigot

mrvitalis:
Meanwhile umiah commissioned 16 flyovers , best state owned airport in Nigeria
Biggest mall in Nigeria
New government house
New university
New stadium
New teaching hospital
New market
Far too many roads to list

With less than 15% of wike revenue without borrowing

All these mean nothing to the hateful ones since he joined APC

nihilistjnr:
I'm actually disgusted that MacMillian considered those stories appropriate learning material for generations of primary school pupils sha.

You'd be surprised how many more you'd find inappropriate now that you're an adult, I remember there was a particular Gandoki story about a slave with the face of a morning star or something like that...

nihilistjnr:
It's not confusing at all if you know basic Nigerian History.

Between Hausa and Banza Bakwai, Borno empire, and Sokoto Caliphate, there has been a huge swathe of land, spanning multiple countries that have been ruled by the fulani-hausa hegemony for nearly a thousand years.

I'm sure even the story of Mai Idris Alooma at the peak of the Borno empire was in one of the MacMillian readers, I think possibly Primary 4. That man was importing musket shooters from Turkey in the 1500s to conquer Nothern Nigeria.

Same MacMillian reader also tells us a fictional story of Gandoki the Fulani fighter who was running around rhe North chopping off the heads of infidels in a thinly disguised reference to Uthman Dan Fodio, who at the peak of his power in the early 1800s had created an empire that spanned South across the rivers Niger and Benue to reach Oyo in the west and what is now Benue State in the east.

Gandoki and Hambama ah those were the days as an adult, rereadin that story you could see that Gandoki told Hambama to accept Islam and be freed, while the book didn't mention the consequences of not accepting islam, you could put 2 and 2 together with his beheading antics. I picked up my son's book the other day and shook my head in disgust, I can't fail to recall the perfect compositions that littered Mastering Engish, indeed you can arguably compare the PDP situation pre and post elections to the tale of 2 STÙPID GOATS
