If PMD is to appoint someone to represent the SS from Delta state, he will not appoint a Kachikwu.
Igbos want to have their cake and eat it.
Nigerians can easily see through such shenanigan.
Now, back to the question, what can Igbos do to Keyamo?

Nothing! Are you expecting Ohaneze to kidnap him and beat him up? Nobody is going to do anything him. But he may well be loosing the trust he has built in that part of the country. The same way Governor Amaechi for whatever reason is no longer respected by his people.

PentiumPro:
Crap as usual. Can you look straight into the eyes of the GMD of NNPC and say he is not Igbo?
Would you say Chief Ralph Nwechue who was the former Ohaneze was not Igbo?
Would you say because these people are not from your South East, then they cease to be Igbo.
The problem or let me say the good thing with eddiots like you is that other people can easily see through your mischievousness, the way sensible Nigerians can see through the thoughtless vituperation from your Ohaneze youth group.

hahaha. They are Igbos fine but not from the south-east, i am debating that with you. But PMB will be castigated for now as the President who refused to appoint anybody from a particular geopolitical zone. Let me give you an instance, Kogi has three major tribe viz Yoruba, Igala and Ebira. Igalas are also indegenes in some parts of Delta, Enugu, Anambra, Edo and Benue states. If for instance, the principal positions in the country are shared along geopolitical zones, Do you think if an Igala from Delta state is apointed as the representative of the North-central zone, it will be generally accepted as being fair? Can an Igala man from Delta state be the Governor of Kogi state? Can Dr Kachikwu be the Governor of Enugu state even though he is Igbo? Thats the point we are making. But of course, you will pretend that it is possible. Most tribes in Nigeria are scattered in more than one state in Nigeria and one has to appoint one from his state to represent his people.

PentiumPro:
You are simply a dullard and a fool to top it up.
Kachikwu is Igbo as Igbo can be!. Remove South East from the Ohaneze youth rubbish and insert Igbo and you will see how stupppid their demand is.
I don't give a hoot where you come from!

How comfortable will you be if the president keeps appointing Igbos from non-Igbo states such as Kogi, Delta, Rivers, Edo and Benue states? You will feel comfortable in your Yoruba head right? Why are you people crying that the current senate president is from the North when he is a yoruba man from Kwara state? You are the dunce here. A yoruba dunce. Get a live outside your wasteland and stop embarrasing the your Yoruba brethren. Yorubas are usually intelligent but you are not. I am sure you are a yoruba.

PentiumPro:
Dunce!
You conveniently classified Kachikwu's NNPC appointment as not belonging to SE, but you still accept his part of Delta as part of Igboland.
How dishonest can you people be!

I can now assume you are an illiterate. Since when did Delta state (Kachikwu's state) become part of the south-east? And it seems you have difficulty making a distinction between geopolitical zones from tribes. Nobody is saying Kachikwu is not an Igbo man, he is just not from the south-east. The south-east has been conveniently ignored in all the appointments made so far, that is the bone of contention. And for your information, i am a Kogi Indegene, an Igala. Does that sound like Igbo to you?

nnamdibig:
Then why cant we wait till may 29 2016?( 365 days in office not 100 days) Then we know it's one year in office we are talking about

Why don't you wait till you are 50 years before you celebrate the first of your birthdays? That is my point! If we celebrate little achievements in small time periods, then we must assess our president as early as we can. Most you guys forget that four years is a very small time frame. If PMB has not initiated any power project(s) at the end of his first year then we can be assured he wnt improve our power situation in four years time because it takes more than three years to build a single power plant. That is the essence of attemptiong to assess our president in 100 days (a short time i must admit). 100 days is a time for the president to set a clear policy direction to drive this country, if he fails in that regard within this time period, most of us will start giving up on him.

PentiumPro:
Yibbbowwws are cunningly dishonest. It's now a geopolitical zone and not Igbos.
In another breathe, one ediot will tell me that the Ohaneze leader is Igbo from Delta state.
Just like Northerners, they practice core Igbos and periphery Igbos.

You are either a dishonest person or an illiterate. The geopolitical zone in question is the South-East, are u no longer aware it is a zone in this country? Secondly, talking about real and fake hausas, the "fake hausas" are actually people living in the far North who speak Hausa as a second langugage. You may think there are all Hausa people but most of them are not.

nnamdibig:
Turn on the radio & television, you hear congratulatory massages for both president, governors, senator & the rest.
My question is what is so special about 100 days in office?
Not that it's an anniversary(yearly) or so

your birthday, what is special about it? Isn't it too small a time for you to celebrate your expected many years on earth? Same thing for wedding anniversary, New Year etc. In 100 days you can easily decide whether you wasted your previous vote or not simple.

wexyee:
Wats the reality? The reality is wat u wnt to be hapenin. Dat is kilin of innocent peple. Guess wat boko haram is about to end.. so u cn aswell pick up arms nd help em up.. tribalistic idiota

You want to know what reality is? Allryt, the reality is that you dont want feel u may have wasted your one vote and that the so-called "change" may be a scam. I dont want anybody dead but you should when you are being decieved and when you are not. I am sure you are not aware of what is going on in this country but some of us have lived in these crises regions, and have friends and family that still live around there (a friend just came back from Konduga FYI) so we know whats really happening. We cant be decieved. We know when the army is truelly winning the war and when it is not. I have seen people first hand running away from Boko Haram and i know what they passed through. Wake up from ur slumber and begin to realise that the war on terror is not won on the pages of newspapers. People are actually dying in their numbers.

Lagos - Jalingo N7000 (fairplus, DB transport) Jalingo - Gombe (Taraba State transport Company) N1500 Jalingo - Kaduna N4000 (Kano Line) Jalingo - Makurdi N2000 (Benue links, TSTC, Kano Line New Nyanya). Etc etc Jalingo - Yola N1000

kokoA:
The only reason why GEJ could not fight BH was lack of political will and corruption. His cabinet members and military chiefs were feeding fat on funds meant for prosecution of the war and I'd be surprised if he wasn't aware, he probably thought that the insurgency in the north will work to his favor in terms of votes not knowing that God had other plans. Don't tell me that crap about USA refusing to sell weapons to us. Where did the military get the weapons they used taking the bloody terrorists down few weeks before the election? For six years you knew you had alternative means of getting weapons yet you allowed our gallant soldiers to suffer and die for nothing dismissing or giving death sentences to those who dare to challenge the system.

Thank God we now have a leader in Baba who has genuine consign for the country and her people (citizens of the north east and our courageous military men in theater of war). Looking at our new service chiefs you will know these men know exactly what to do and how to get it done. The chief Army staff in particular leads his troop on the field and not from and an ac tight office somewhere in Abuja.

since a man with "political will" is now at the helm of affairs, has he ended the war? Instead we now hear of attacks everyday. And surprisingly these days, we never hear of when boko haram captures a town, we only hear of it when the army recaptures it. Abeg, face reality and stop apportioning blames.

PassingShot:
These unrepentant TANoids again!

With just N30m in an only bank account, Buhari was a poor man.

Shame on Balarabe Musa and his co-travellers. Shame on all the billionaires who saw nothing wrong in looting the common wealth.

With his assetdeclaration, Buhari has again proved that he is indeed incorruptible.

An average local govt chairman in Nigeria is far richer than Buhari.

In societies where honor and principle still guide people's actions, this shameless man and Olisa Metuh and their co-wailers will forever bury their head and shut their dirty mouths PERMANENTLY.

This passingshit ehn. I de sure say if APC package Devil give you say na Jesus christ, u go collect am. I think you are very easy to decieve. If you were a girl, i am sure you would have a huge sinkhole in ur bottom area by now because of what guys would have done to you... Make i no talk.

Dont trust human beings, they will not hear. How can a man without blemish allow his campaign be sponsored by thieves?

bamidele029:
GEJ and PDP where the ones who brought in tribal sentiments for their selfish gain. What did GEJ do for the SS and SE at the end of the day? Nothing but they've used tribal sentiments to blind you while the politicians wine and dine together.

GEJ might have done his part but you are trying to deny the obvious. GEJ has gone and our divisions are becoming more glaring, will you still blame GEJ for it? What do you have to say about the President who has not appointed a single person from the south-East and still had the guts to say he may not favour those who gave him only 5% votes? That president is uniting Nigeria by his actions abi? Please wake up!

Of course it doesn't matter right now because we are still experiencing peace. It will matter when Nigerians pick up arms and start agitating for a country of their own. Nigeria has never been this divided and PMB is fuelling these sentiments.

Next time try to pay more attention to the subject matter.
North central not north east, that was the region in question man.
In regards to your question in your first sentence it's in the affirmative YES. You have already accepted that of religion so let's look at other angles.
Look around you in kogi the typical way of dressing, eating, greetings etc does it look more of that of an hausa man or a an igbo/ibibio/ijaw?.
The truth is bitter but you just have to face it man

Mtcheeew. I have lived in Kogi for more than 20 years and i find it funny that you are trying to school me about who my people are. Do you think i am trying to deny our closeness to any people? How do Hausa people eat? Please tell me which tribe in the middle-belt greet like the Hausa people. I know where your misunderstanding comes from, most tribes in the middle belt answer "lafia" when greeted and therefore we have a similar language. Please limit yourself to what you are sure of. You will be surprised to come to most middle belt states and hear us complainign about Hausa and Fulani people the same way you people castigate them in the South. If you call some of us of the middle belt Hausa people, you may just find yourself fighting. We dnt like Hausa and Fulani the same way most people from other regions do. And dont forget, we are under constant attacks from them. The Fulanis are causing trouble all over our lands in Kogi, Benue, Taraba, Plateau, Nasarawa etc. On the other hand, each time there is a religious crises in the North, we are never spared. Even the muslims from our regions are denounced as fake muslims and slaughtered, how is that for affinity? Language-wise, Igala (Kogi), Idoma (Benue), Ebira (Kogi), Edo (Edo), Itshekiri (Delta) and Yoruba (south west)languages all share a very close affinity. The same is true for most other middle-beltan languages that i cant speak, there are all related and non to Hausa language. Abeg make i no derail thread. One thing is sure, the people of the middle-belt have a seperate identity and do not want to be lump-sumed with the Hausa people people. During a recent debate in the house of assembley a few years ago when it was opined that Nigeria may Disintegrate in 2015, the core northerners were of the opinion that if such were to happen, Kogi and Kwara states should be given to them. The uproar it caused in the national assembley was somthing else with our house representatives spitting fire and registering their annoyance at such an outrageous suggestion. Enough is enough. We are different from the Hausa and Fulani people, period!

mhbabanna:
Believe it or not middle belt / north central has more affinity and inclination to the core northern parts. Only benue and kwara are abit different.
Culture and tradition wise? The man/ woman from plateau/niger/kogi/nasarawa dresses and eats just like the man from kano or bauchi.
Religious wise? plateau and benue are the the two states in the middle belt were you find Christians in numerical strength. But of course there are also in the other four aforementioned states but not enough to drag the net. More so these states also use hausa as there lingua franca
I have always opined that any body from the north central ranting not to be from the north is either from benue or a Christian who might possibly be having the feeling of been inferior.

you are wrong. Your knowledge of the middle-belt is deficit. For your information, Taraba is a majority christian state too which explains why a reverend pastor (Jolly Nyame once ruled them). What makes you think the Yoruba man, Ebira man and Igala man from Kogi state feel closer to the Hausa man than other tribes? The only instance you will find middle-beltans claiming afinity to the core north is for political and religious benefits and only when it favours us. When push comes to shove, we know we are entirely on our own. The core northerners too know that we are different from them and only tolerate them for benefits. You are right in parts anyway, i am a christian, but on the whole we consider ourselves seperate people.

jamace:
There is this deliberate attempt by a section of the North to justify the "Northocratic" appointments by Muhammadu Buhari. It is on record that 8 of the 9 appointments made by Buhari are Northerners. To justify the ethnocratic act of the President, some persons selectively and maliciously singled out a few positions held by Southerners under Jonathan to justify Buhari's Northocratism. Nigeria FG has over 500 Departments and Agencies that one can't be listing all of them at a go. However, I took my time and painstakingly singled out some Ministries and Agencies and listed the heads of these agencies plus their geopolitical zone.

In addition to the above, Jonathan's appointed Chairman of INEC Atahiru Jega is from Kebbi state (North). The Attorney General under Jonathan Muhammed Adoke is a Northerner. A cursory look at Jonathan's appointment will convince any doubter that the North were one of the major beneficiaries. It is unfair for a section of the North to propagate falsehood in their bid to justify the Northocratic appointments of President Buhari.

I will be glad to entertain anyone that can name ANY sector that GEJ marginalised the North.

https://www.nairaland.com/2429600/jonathans-appoinment-countering-deceit-some

you no well o. U go skul so? Why did you list only four geo-political zones in your analysis? So we now have only south-west, south-east, south-south and northern zones in Nigeria? Hypocrisy! You have conveniently forgotten that the north has three zones too just like the south.

This noise about North and South is getting very boring. GEJ appointed his southern People fine! PMB is appointing his Nothern Brothers, ok! But one group of people have been totally forgotten. Each time we scream North and South, we forget that there are six geopolitical zones in Nigeria and that the NORTH-CENTRAL ZONE or MIDDLE BELT is actually a zone on its own with little affinity to the other northern zones. In the din of the noise about northern appointments, everybody forgets that PMB has only been appointing people from the north-eastern and north-western zones. After reading this post, i am tempted to say Nigeria is not one. I wonder how you lots supporting and defending GEJ and PMB will feel if a Tiv man from Benue state becomes president and appoints only Tiv people to his kitchen cabinet. I bet we will have a full-blown war then. I think its high time we "northern" or central Nigerian minorities stand up and let our voice be heard. By the way, i am becoming tired of being called a Northerner, for christ's sakes we are in the middle of Nigeria!!!

How do people always find a way to blame "The West and Isreal" for all the crises going on in muslim dominated countries/regions? Nobody ever seems to blame the most dominant factor(s) (Islam/Arabs) in all of these crises. Dear OP, please which Western country is responsible for the rise of Boko Haram? Is there oil in North-Eastern Nigeria? I am confused!

Realisticman:
I am one of your silent followers on this forum, but I am sorry we are not in the same page on this one.
The whole blames should be placed on the arabs squarely. Reasons:
1 Arabs are the real promoters of war in their region due largely to supremacy battle between the Sunnis and their Shiite.
We are not going to delve too much on that. But I can assure you that that is the main problem in the middle East.
2 remember the distance between the US and Iraq: how possible is it for them to invade Iraq without the support of the Gulf countries(Arab countries)?
3 There is an adage in my place which goes; will you cut of your whole leg because you have a wound on your laps? So even if the west have brought war to them; does that make them to allow their own blood to continue to die just like that?
Let me tell you one thing: the arabs mostly spend their wealth to support radicalism in the name of religion and nothing more. If they spend their wealth in the uplifting of poor muslims, no muslims would have been poor today.

You took the words out of my mouth. This is a perfect response to the OP.

Dottore:
[size=15pt]Why are these terrorists always targeting operating in Nigeria. There are lots of other African and European countries to experiment their devilish course.
I wonder how else to term a religion that is so violent and so allergic to peaceful existence of humanity.

Can someone remind me the capital of Pakistan...

God save us[/size]

terrorists are not targeting Nigeria. Nigeria produces terrorists herself. I spent a few weeks in Tudun-Wada Dankadai LGA of Kano state a few months ago and was shocked by what i discovered. There was absolutely no single church in the local government because all the christians were chased away after a crises in which only christians were killed (17 or 19 dead). The atmosphere was stiffling. Almajiris everywhere and destroyed houses that reminded the few christians remaining that there are to behave or face de same fate. We may shout Boko Haram are not Nigerians from now till eternity but these people are almost no different from them.

Wrong for APC to deny the 100 day in office promise.

However, Nigeria is already witnessing unprecedented change in some key areas that matter:
1. Electricity has improved despite that the Otuoke man promised us to expect better supply by March 2016.

2. Blocking of wastages and loopholes have resulted in increase in our foreign reserves despite that GEJ/PDP practically emptied same. They met it at $47.7bn, sold crude at average of $100 per barrel and still found a way to reduce the reserve to just $29bn. Incredulous!

3. Better accountability with income has resulted in increase in allocation to the three tiers of govts despite reduced income from crude sale.

4. The fight has been taken to the Boko terrorists unlike the other way round in the past.

5. Our image has experienced a positive outlook and no Ghana Prof or Kenyans can dare insult our dear country.

6, Stealing is NOW corruption and everybody seems to be keying in.

7. Some refineries have started working since July as against the 2016 promised by PDP

8. NNPC is being restructured so that it returns to profitability very soon.

No regrets supporting PMB/VPYO. Let wailers wail for it's their destiny to do so.

Did she not show him the baby's card? If that was not enough then he can request for a dna test or any other sensible method, since he is hell bent on discovering if she indeed owns the child, especially as since bweast milk coming out of the woman's bweast is not proof she owns the child.

are u by any way trying to say a breastfeeding mum cannot be a kidnapper? What if the woman is actually a kidnapper and she forged de baby's card? Desperate times call for desperate measures. The OP portrayed the policeman's action from a very biased point of view. By the way, the policeman was still very wrong. He should be sued.
