These guys protesting are so light-skinned. They do not look like our regular 9ja folks. |
I counted less than 15 people and they are all hiding their faces. This is so cheap it's hilarious. "Dictatorship", please. |

Look at at the poor quality work done on the bridge. |
I know that bridge and have used it for a long time. How sad. |
OK o |
Religion is the problem of Nigeria. Religion has brought nothing but death and destruction to Nigeria. There is hate and distrust now all in the name of religion. Someone should please tell me one good thing religion has brought to Nigeria. All I see all around me is hate, distrust, death, destruction, brutality and underdevelopment (due to destruction) all in the name of religion. Islam and Christianity are the two worst things to ever happen to Nigeria. All our forefathers that fell to these religions will be weeping in their graves right now. Separate Religion from state affairs and Nigeria will have overcome all her billion and one problems (Corruption, robbery, destruction etc). All crimes are buried and go unpunished in the name of religion. SHAME. |
@Enyojo enyojo:Strike has always taken place in Nigeria no matter the person in power. Do not politicise this. Even during the time of your beloved presidential candidate there was strike. As long as you have unionism you will always have agitation that leads to strikes. That is why most organisations are trying to rid temselves of unionism. It is good for collective bargaining but nothing else. |
@Trench Coat trenchcoat:The only one inciting hate right now is Trench Coat. Why Should Jona Jang be on Boko Haram hitlist? Is that a threat? Do you know something the rest of us dont? Are you Boko Haram in disguise? |
@Kobojunkie Kobojunkie:You seem to have misunderstood me or you purposely chose to misrepresent what I have written. I did not in anywhere state that the "the Almajiris went Sharia" but rather the states with a lot of Almajiris went Sharia to try to frustrate OBJ. My response was to the effect that the federal government has been trying for a long time to help the states with these Alamajiris since the 1970s. You were quick to chip in MEND in your comment and they started getting special treatment from the federal govt only within the last five years while these Almajiri states have been benefitting from the federal govt for decades. My point is, the state Governors (who incidentally are predominantly non PDP by the way) went Sharia to frustrate any effort by the govt to try to dig into their activities. They hide under the cloak of religion to frustrate any effort. Sharia do exist and it has everything to do with the current condition up north. No other law can supercede the sharia (according to the islamic teachings). Western education is taught to be hated because it is supposed to undermine Sharia (hence Boko Haram meaning "Education (western in this case) is a sin" . When these Almajiris are raised to accept this teachings how can you make them accept western education? Religion and politics is a dangerous mix and it will be better to seperate religion and state. I schooled in Nigeria and had the opportunity to mix with northern students and you need to know how much they get as scholarships from their state governments while the other students can only dream. For the record, there are a lot of other poor people in the north that are not Almajiris and are not muslims. You do not hear them causing all these troubles. I am sure you have heard of the Jukuns. |
@Kobojunkie Princek12:You mean well but there is little more the federal government can do in these states where Almajiris abound. These states constitute the so called "Educationally Less disadavantaged states (ELDS)" and they have have been receiving funds from the federal government allocation since the 1970's. They get free education where the rest of Nigeria do not. They get scholarship and grants that people from other parts of nigeria can only dream of. They are the reason why Nigeria uses quota sytem like mad (with the hope that they will someday catch up). When OBJ came into power these states with all these Almajiris decided to go Sharia. If it is possible to seperate the state from religion then things might be different. The funds gotten from the federal govt are used to fund these so called Islamic schools to the detriment of western education because they believe western education is bad (hence "Boko Haram). It is sad, very sad. |
"Nigeria is roughly divided in half between a mainly Muslim north and predominately Christian south. Buhari, whose party has rejected the results and filed a challenge to them, has not spoken publicly, but condemned the rioting in brief comments to the BBC's Hausa-language service. Police were providing few details on the situation. While the initial rioting began over allegations that Jonathan's party had sought to rig the vote, the situation appeared to be more complex in some instances. One man claiming to be a witness to unrest in the town of Zonkwa in the south of Kaduna state said on local radio that clashes broke out early Tuesday when Christians celebrating Jonathan's victory attacked Muslims there. Muslim residents fought back and police were outnumbered, according to the man who said he had taken refuge at a police station along with a number of others. "The Christians succeeded in burning our homes, our vehicles," he said. "They killed many and threw some of the dead in open wells. Many dead bodies litter the streets." An inhabitant of Kaduna city claimed that residents from the mostly Christian south of the state had come to the area on Sunday and targeted Muslims. The resident, Abubakar Aliyu, told AFP by phone he also saw police shoot seven people and other locals told him that bodies were also thrown into wells there. None of the claims could be immediately verified. " Big frigging lie. Big frigging lie. Big frigging lie. liar liar. The muslims all over the north started all these mayhem. Everyone knows this and no amount of sugar coating will change the truth. Look at bauchi, kano, and all other parts of the north. this mayhem is as a result of the CPC candidate losing and not because the christians were jubilating. Liars. The truth WILL be revealed. Mai tatsine started this in the 80s and it has only gotten worse. God will punish everyone who kills in the name of Allah/God. |
sleekman:Are you telling me that they were no poor people during Buhari, IBB and Abacha's tenure? Several times during their tenure Nigeria was ranked as one of the most corrupt nation the world, one of the poorest nation in the world and so forth. You can dig up corruption index from UN for as far back as you care. Nigerians are not fools. The problems of Nigeria was amplified when Dictator Buhari truncated democracy. the same democracy he wants to benefit from now. Shameless man. Vote anyone but Buhari. He was, is and will continue to be a major problem in Nigeria. Out with the old (Buhari, OBJ, IBB, Atiku etc) and in with the new (Ribadu, GEJ, Pat Utomi etc). [size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt][size=8pt]Do not vote in the former dictator.
