The constitution says No Card carrying member of any political party.

Stop the nonsensical allegations without proof.

Tell us which party convention those PDP commissioners attended with dates.

Bisola is so wrong that her inexperience is so glaring.

Point of correction, to sustain a peaceful protest, the organisers need carnival atmosphere to avoid degenerating to violence.

Blue3k:
No it's illegal to block the roads. When they caught they should be arrested and charged accordingly. They can practice civil disobedience if they want but there's consequences. They don't own the street so they cant block it.

You are partially correct depending on the length of time.

This is the akin to what labour unions do when they are on strike by picketing the factories, banks etc

What next?

Pedophiles lives matter

Transfer those SARs to the North. Case closed.

This is democracy.

Professor Soludo's pragmatism is why he isn't the Governor of Anambra State for now.

President Jonathan feared that Professor Soludo is too independent minded that no politician can control him hence Jonathan suspected that Soludo may decamp to APC if his demands from the centre (Federal) are not met.

He is now free to take his rightful position as an achiever.

But for the good of Igboland, can Soludo be loaned to Abia State for a Governor?

cbrezy:
Nigerian activist, Aisha Yesufu has stirred up a debate on Twitter after sharing her opinion that the Igbo apprenticeship system have contributed to why many people from other tribes resent Igbos.

It is given that the age long Igbo apprenticeship system has produced a lot of multimillionaires of Igbo extraction to the wonder of many from other tribes.

The Igbo apprenticeship system allows a businessman take a young person to learn about his business and eventually get settled (given start-up capital) after an agreed period of time, which usually lasts between 5 to 7 years. During the service period, the younger person (servant) serves the businessman (master) while learning the business.

The Igbos have used the system to build themselves and relatives into renowned business men and women even where apprentices have little, or no formal education.

A Twitter user had said: “The Igbo’s apprenticeship program is the only ‘MBA’ class in the world that teaches the real intricacies of running a business, the practical application of SWOT and PESTEL analysis. And when you graduate, they’ll give you seed capital to start the business. A system that works.”
In replying the tweet, Aisha Yesufu pointed out that “The Igbo apprenticeship is an amazing system and the reason Igbos are great in business.”

However, she went on to say that “Everything has it’s advantage and disadvantage and that same system has also portrayed Igbos as clannish people who only employ their own people and never assimilate”

Her tweets opened up a debate as she went on to state that the apprenticeship system have contributed to Igbos been resented the same way Jews are resented.

She went on; “These are my opinions and thoughts over the years and I might be completely wrong but this is how I see it.

“There is a need to take a deliberate look at the Igbo apprenticeship system & begin to look at ways of inclusion. It can start with 5% inclusion of others. When you always go to your village to bring those that will work for you how do you expect the people where you are to feel?

“Just like the Jews, Igbos are resented & I have always wondered why? Is it because they are successful and can achieve anything from nothing? Is it the resilience? I concluded it is because it seems no matter how long they stay with you or you with them you are never one in biz

“A situation where as a business person you only employ your people via the apprenticeship model & no matter how long you stay in a place you never employ the indigenes there except to load and off load. there will be resentment. More if it is not one off experience but the norm

“The Jews too have that trait. Family businesses. Helping each other grow in business and capacity to gang up(if na one naira na one naira) on business issues are common traits shared by both Igbos and Jews. The others feel like outsiders not allowed to share in the goodness

“Systems are to be looked at and upgraded from time to time. It is also important to look at how things are perceived by others. You don’t have to change but just know this is how this action is seen by others

“In all the riots I witnessed as a child, I always say it is more economical than religion. Host community usually think it is the others that kept them impoverished. They feel those monies would have been theirs if these people weren’t there. People don’t blame their lazy selves.

That's why it baffles me when people of other ethnicity claim that Igbo people hate each others progress.

All these just for refuting an unknown opinion? Stop taking it personal.

You get any gross with Dr Ngozi Iweala being chosen as the DG of WTO?

Lagos State collects taxes of people working in most States of the Federation because of the Location of head office.

This is insanity.

Taxes for Oil wells in Abia and Imo State States are remitted to Lagos State because of no physical presence of Staffs in those States.

Kudos to Buhari.

We appreciate.

You forgot Abia State suffered 30 years setback because of Unmitigated Kidnapping from 2008 to 2012.

Abia State was making headway through private and public contributions until it became the epicenter of Kidnapping in Nigeria. Businesses left, Investors and Medium and Large Scale Industrialists left for neighboring States especially Anambra Stats.

Projects and Capital developments collapsed, contractors, bankers, millionaires etc were target of kidnapping hence there was total collapse of the State in 4 years until Jonathan appointed Gen Ihejirika as Army chief and was commissioned to tackle the menace which took him a year to stop.

Abia State is just rebuilding and should be seen as such.

Abia State requires Federal Government intervention and more also the Federal Government abandoned Abia State through these four years ad no capital project nor reconstruction was done during this period.

Where is Abia State share of the Federal budget in four years?

To understand MURIC, see them as Islamic Supremacists in Nigeria (ISIN) with the same agenda as ISIS but in a subtle way.

Good people of Nigeria should stop calling them MURIC rather ISIN (Islamic Supremacists In Nigeria)

Using lies to toast ladies is not a criminal case in Nigeria.

End time Ladies prefer lieing men to honest decent men.

The dressing is classless. Poor kid looking for recognition from people with no conscience.

LibertyRep:
Kalu stole no single dime from the government he served between 1999-2007.

Maybe these fictitious Northern youths have forgotten that Kalu was left off the hook not because he didn't steal bit because the judge that sentenced him wasn't the right person to do so - maybe part of the grand scheme anyway.

They are at the liberty to support their own 'thief' as other people have been doing to theirs too. But while at it, please don't insult our collective sensibilities.

Tell us what you know except what Obasanjo said to frame him in lieu of his third term agenda.

Do you know that Gen Buhari, Babangida and other third term antagonist signed a communique to support Orji Uzir Kali to run against Obasanjo should the third term agenda succeeds.

Ask yourselves why will Buhari give up his agenda for Orji Kali in 2007?

Orji Kalu had nothing against him until he aspired to run for President in 2007.

Obasanjo illegally deducted N1.2 billion from allocation accrued to Abia State as a means to punish Orji Uzo Kalu for fighting against his third term ambition.

The concorted criminal case against Kalu was a political hit job to stop Kalu by Obasanjo using EFCC

Source: US Diplomatic Cable.

Remember, the same US Diplomatic Cable put Orji Uzor Kalu's annual profit from his international businesses @ $20 million.

He was already a money magnet in 1999. Remember, OBJ banned Slok shipping and Slok Airlines in order to stop Kalu.

LukasPodolski:
what has Obj victory over Ojukwu in the east got to do with this? ibos BETRAYED Ojukwu, nonetheless that got nothing to do with the subject under discussion..


perhaps the "Census officers" from the east were drunk when NPC tampered with SE population figure.

another day, another victim card, you hardly see other tribes playing the victim card.


in addition, the Op of this thread is not alright, I've never seen media outlets saying SE is overpopulated.

Overcome your limitations to understand parallel theorems.

The same way elections were rigged was the same way census was rigged - QED.

Stop quoting me if you're not able to keep aside your clannish orientation and political persuasion.

LukasPodolski:
the last census was conductor in 2006, with Abia being 28th most populous state at 2.8million.

even if all Abia residence visit Ariaria on the market day, there is no way the market would record 5million people.


the way most of you guys, I mean our eastern brothers reason sef.

do you realise the quantity of the figure 1million? not talk talk of 5million market attendees nawa oo

Go to the market there yourself to confirm. Stop babbling.

The same time Obasanjo had more votes than Ojukwu in Southeast.

Stop quoting rigged census. It was because of the Igbo people that the North advocated for removal of ethnicity and religion from census until they found a way to rig the results.

Imagine Old Kano State is almost twice in population than Lagos State. Remember, it's divided to two States while Lagos still remain one State.

You are too foolish. Quoting you should be a recognition gone south.

People are grieving and you're here talking rubbish as if the genocide isn't reprehensible and unforgivable.

Five million as in helmets or State?


People that troop out from Ariaria Market at the close of the market is even equal or more than 5 million let alone the local government.

Kamala Harris father own more than 200 slaves and enslaved blacks for personal gains.

White woman is better than Kamala who dealt with blacks as California Attorney General, put many in jail for possessing marijuana when she is also a marijuana smoker

Biden is far worse dangerous to blacks than any of the Republican Aspirants sin 1776, yet they wee all label racists be it McCain or Romney, they press called them racist in order to win black votes.

Not unexpected. The stereotype remains valid. Whoever gives to Africans is a saviour. It doesn't matter if it is a Trojan horse. Afterall El Chappo Guzman and Pablo Escobar were renowned philanthropists. Africans would have crowned them saints. It is sad that you cannot separate policy statement that helps a race of people from some Greek gifts that assists a few.

Back in 2017, Joe Biden used the term “roaches” to describe black children. The term “roach” is an offensive term used to describe African-Americans since the first cockroaches arrived in America on slave ships. To quote Biden, “I got a lot, I got hairy legs that, that, that, that turn blonde in the sun, and the kids used to come up and reach in the pool and rub my leg down so it was straight and then watch the hair come back up again. They’d look at it. I learned about roaches, I learned about kids jumping on my lap”. Joe Biden’s racism can not be ignored.

Back in 2006, Joe Biden stereotyped all American Indians as working at either 7/11 or Dunkin’ Donuts. Biden stated “You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking”. Biden has a history of mocking Indian Americans. While he was Vice President, Biden broke into an Indian accent while describing call centers. This, however, should not come as a surprise when one understands Biden’s true beliefs.

In one of Biden’s most racist statements, Biden stated back in 2007 that former President Barack Obama was special because he is the first African-American that is “bright and clean”. To fully quote Biden, “You got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man”. Joe Biden’s racism can’t even spare his employer.
