MKO, may he rest in peace, the peace denied him by Hausa/Fulani people, I mean.
He could have been one of the best presidents we've ever had as a nation, and because of that, you know what happened to him.

Did you miss my point about Hausa/Fualni muslims vs southern muslims?
The Hausa/Fulani muslims are my reference point, and that cancer group must be truely reduced in power and proportion.

Many other tribes in Nigeria can speak Yoruba fluently, Igbo's ,  Beni's & Hausa's are versetile inthis language I contribute to the influence of Lagos.

What are you talking about?

It's very simple, this distinction between Nigeria and Naija.

Amos Adamu of the 'Cash for World Cup Hosting Votes' scandal is from Nigeria.

Mo'Cheddah, 18 year old singer/rapper who won the best video by a female artiste in the whole of Africa is an omo Naija.

Erastus Akingbola and Cecilia Ibru of the 'run this bank like my personal kiosk' saga are from Nigeria.

Stephanie Okereke and Genevieve Nnaji, some of the most recognizable faces on the continent are omo Naija.

Dipreye Alamieyesigha of the 'cross-dressing to escape from custody' fame is from Nigeria.

2Face Idibia, one of Africa's most decorated musicians is an omo Naija.


It's not rocket science to understand that young Nigerians have found a motherlode of nationalistic fervour in that name Naija albeit in a totally unexpected direction. It is a rallying cry for engendering a sense of belonging to our nation despite the fact that it has thoroughly failed us. Methinks, Dora should leverage the name Naija if she is truly serious about rebranding this country. We hear the South Africans going on about 'Mzanzi' all the time. no one has told them not to refer to their country by that name. And they have constant electricity too.

Shut your mouth you damn deceiver, you said COASTAL AREA OF ONDO STATE, which is Ijaw land

Read the top bit about Ilaje LG of Ondo State which is also the coastal area of Ondo State many people have a misconception that the coastal areas of Ondo State is Ijaw which is not only far-fetched but a fallacy. 

I know say e they pain u say Ikwerres who are sub-igbos are denying their  Igbo heritage making your bleep**g Biafra country a landlocked, impoverish and erosion prone place, a place fit only for the damned.

Coastal area who?!!!!! That is Ijaw land, always has been and always will be. Take your Oduwa nonsense somewhere else.

Nigerians used to be the most educated people in the world until the likes of Abacha and the Murtala Muhammed came and scattered our educational system to slow down the South so that the North can catch up, instead of speeding up the North. We are sick and tired of politicians whose only objective is to fleece our public wealth. We h, ave selfish people, selfish parents and selfish leaders who do everything for themselves and nothing for their children and successors. But, success is not success unless there is a successor. May God deliver Nigeria from ‘eldership’ and from a leadership that is overweight, undiscerning and blind. Do you know why Nigeria’s vast resources have not yet been discovered? It is because if they are discovered now, these useless people in power will squander them. But God is waiting for David to deliver us.” - Senior Pastor of House On The Rock, PAUL ADEFARASIN, said two days ago as he called on Christians in the country to be involved in politics, especially the Presidency

Christian theocrats are no better than Muslim ones. Don't want to live under either.

What happens if you disagree with the theocracy about how you want to practice some aspect of the religion? Under a theocracy, religious disagreement is violating the law and probably gets you jailed or at the very least hurts your quality of life a lot.

Ya'll need to read up on the reformation and especially Martin Luther to understand why religion and politics don't mix.

Redeemed needs to stay out of politics; Jesus said the following for a very good reason: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matthew%2022:21;&version=NIV;WHNU;

Has Adeboye endorsed any candidate? The only popular pastor who I'm aware has done that (so far) is Tunde Bakare.

Not is support aor against the idea, but I remember Reuben Abati (Whose insight on issues is revered in Nigeria) made a similar statement some months back. I am of the opinion that the people making this allusions should school us better as to why they have this opinion. Not in support of it!

I doubt very much that Adeboye has a hold of his church members. The church is made of people of different ideologies, ethnicities and creed. So they don't think alike. Apart from that RCCG does not have the kind of influence that Catholic, The Emir and co have on their people. If the pope or Cardinal Arinze endorses a candidate you can be sure that at least 40% of the Igbo population will go for that person.

This is another bullshitty news. How many people worship under the Banner of RCCG compared to Catholics, Anglicans, Muslims and other churches? How many of those are eligible to vote, legally speaking? The man holds nobody's vote and even if he does, it will be tyrannically of him to force people to vote for a particular candidate. Many Nigerians are ignoramuses, brainwashed by fake pastors and imams to he extent that some will run to Adeboye/Imam to ask him how they should sleep with their spouses. Nonsense

What About the sultan of Sokoto who is the spiritual head of  of  50% of the  nigerian population.Not the mention the Roman catholic church that controls over 25 million nigerians and over 60% of the south eastern population.

RCCG does not even have more population than the  Anglican church.Besides your analysis is misleading because even if the RCCG has 5m members I seriously doubt that up to 505 of them have attained the voting age of 18 yrs
