You hia that?

Na d tori wey dem papa tell dem b that. No wonder one local government is changing the name of the street back to owners.

Small time naow, dem go say na their papa land.

Since Independence in 1960 the fact remains that Yoruba languished in Opposition with stubborn Awo who refused to listen to Akintola: Igbo worked and formed Alliance with the North they always condemn; as hypocrites.

The split between Awo and Akintola was pointing out the hypocrisy of Igbo whose leadership and elites gained from Herbert Macauiey. Yet, they have never returned any kindness but hate and some wishful rights to entitlement in Yoruba land.

As long as Yoruba remain out in the cold, fine.

People who dominated Jonathan's (a Biafran) Cabinet, are complaining about Tinubu for working with the North or appointing Yoruba.

They love anther detribalized Obasanjo, something you have and will never get out of them. Except pay back with hate and sense of entitlement.

ENABLING ENVIRONMENT: MILITARY ELITES ARMED ROBBED THE ECONOMY

If many talented Africans, especially Nigerians excel in Europe and the United States, why can’t they use the same expertise to develop their individual countries? Corruption in high places is not unique to Africa. The fact is, there are more talented Africans at home outside the Military. But the temptations they ignore in foreign countries are embraced in Africa. They know Deterrence makes postal boys out of successful Blacks abroad. In Africa, most can kill or buyout deterrents.

Since the interventions by military rulers, most African countries have never recovered from the trauma of armed robbery. It is not a coincidence that ethnic conflicts escalated into armed and full blown civil wars. Militricians claim they returned democracy to their country when they either become civilian Presidents or pick their cronies to rule. Soldiers are trained to defend their country from external or uncontrollable internal aggression, not trained in the political economy.

African military men, as the sacred cows, have replaced the colonialists: looting Africa with impunity. They inherited a colonial enabling environment. They are so powerful and unmoved, most civilian Presidents watch their backs. Only a few argue with guns, no matter how many times we condemn it. Otherwise, the so-called bloody civilians risk displacement. The overthrow and ugly humiliation of Lumumba in Congo still crawls the blood of most decent human beings.

The only way the military rulers could be replaced is through a palace coup like what Nzeogwu did in Nigeria and what Rawlings did in Ghana. Take a look at Niger, Mali, Sudan, Burkina Faso and Guinea. There is nothing they all promised that had not been promised by past Military leaders. They are all intoxicated by power. Even the ones with idealistic motives at the beginning of their reigns become too comfortable after enjoying the regalia of office.

The scramble for national cake by the new elite of Military brass and their political leaders have made the Accountants and Economists scrabbling for the accurate amount of money coming into the country and the amount of goods and services going out impossible. Any foreign country can enter Nigeria and other African countries with the support of the Military: to establish mining, agriculture and factories without proper accountability to the Local and Central Governments.

General Murtala Muhammed, a well known looter, decided to change and gave up his loot in order to clean up Nigeria when he became President. Panic gripped his colleagues that took Nigeria for granted, never allowing him to succeed. Mohammed was gunned down in his official vehicle about six months in office since he was going to clean Augean Stable including those engaging in drug peddling. He had a promising crusade against corruption but was aborted.

General Buhari was a no-nonsense Military man. Even when known as a religious fanatic trusted by Boko Haram to negotiate with the civilian Government on their behalf, most Nigerians loved his zero tolerance for corruption. Buhari was so respected and feared in the Military, we were surprised that another General, Babangida could overthrow him. Unfortunately for Babangida we thought then: that Buhari who later became a civilian President, would pay IBB back.

Those of us that anticipated the end of Babangida for overthrowing Buhari were wrong again! No Government, even those headed by a militrician can touch the sacred cows in the military. What we did not know is what the caliber in the Military knew long ago - that nobody born of a woman could touch them. The power they enjoy did not come from ballot boxes, it was ordained by the power of Armed Robberies. What is the business of soldiers with Enabling Environment?

It was the same Babangida who annulled the fairest Election in the history of Nigeria that voted Abiola as the President. Captain David Mark who later became the Senate President had threatened to shoot Abiola if he had been installed as the elected President. The lack of enabling environment for economic and political growth most complained of are stifled by the culture of hijacked governments by Armed Robberies of the governments with impunity.

Therefore, if most political and economic experts locally or foreign trained are wondering why economic hypotheses that curbed corruption in other countries like in Asian politics, did not work make a dent in Africa; check the entrenched power of former military rulers in Africa. They have no other job than to look for ways to increase their spoils of fortune like their colonial masters, become stupendously rich, no tangible investment but to launder foreign cash back abroad.

The military training they had from Europe and America was used to fight one another in Civil Wars. They negotiate all the military arms contracts while negotiating their kickbacks. Their training turned them into enemies within their countries destroying one man one vote in any form of democracy. Indeed, they have replaced the old civilian political ruling class. Young men started seeing military careers as their surest bet to get into government in order to loot.

Nigeria has become a draining basket despite its enormous resources. The leaks are just insurmountable since every militrician and their civilian colleagues look for loopholes to drain the countries of foreign income. Since modern technologies are available and being used in other countries, it is a deliberate conspiracy to sabotage local industries and entrepreneurs. As a result, we cannot account for what is going out or coming into the country.

Therefore, countries with less resources and talented individuals are making more money in foreign and local incomes than Nigeria. Nigerian politicians and militricians have colluded with father and sons businesses like P&ID that lacked an aorta of the technical talents needed to enhance our budding resources just to defraud the country. What do these Vagabonds In Power do with the ill-gotten profit? They laundered it back abroad!

This notion that a new government would be worse than the previous one is a fallacy. Nobody missed Babangida or Abacha! Obasanjo,as a former military and civilian Head of State, complained recently that despite leaving $70bn in Nigeria’s coffers, we owe more debt now than ever. OBJ please blame your Military boys.

Yet, the Nigeria Military used to be one of the best Peacekeepers around the world. They were invited whenever there were conflicts. But for Nigeria Peace Keeping efforts, wars would still be raging in more African countries. Recently, as more military palace coups gripped West Africa, the Civilian Government of Nigeria tried like the good old days to restore democracy through negotiations by bringing opposite parties together. Nigeria was warned to mind its business.

This guy will not stop crying for not getting contracts from Tinubu.

A terrorist looking for positions as if we do not have enough of them in Power already.

Reminds me of Abiola donating money all over Nigeria. We know how they tumb their noses at him duringElection, even threatened him.

He got majority votes in Anambra though.

Why does all the hatred on land and countries that are not yours, why?

You do not have the votes, cannot get along with your neighbors, not even get along within yourselves.

Yet you want to rule by blackmail, force, coup or tulasi.

Ask how your grandparents got along with others, praised as hardworking and made the leader of NCNC by Herbert Macauiey. Well before you discovered drug peddling around the world and a blemish on Nigeria.

Forkthiefnubu:
Evil ppl who sees the world from the narrow prism of tribe , they know buhari is incompetent and yet they supported him and what of the drug drug dealer who they went wild for , just look at what he is doing to Nigeria

.

Go on glorifying countries your papa launder money and slaves to build.

None of you saw the homeless in a cold country. Canada is where a Nigerian died outside a homeless shelter in a temperate weather because he camped outside since the shelter was full.

Keep on looking for Olorunsogo outside Nigeria when you can create yours at home.

Projections on others to deflect guilt as usual.

The whole world know the capital of drug dealers in Nigeria. Hear them talk about a member from another ethnic group that used to deal in their drug trade, you would think they are angels.

Their hypocrisy stinks to hell.

Kotinue!

How can communities of deserters grow? They cannot stay home, always wondering like stray rabies infected dogs looking for blood like Dracula.

They contribute venom to every social media out of bitterness and hate because they cannot overcome their hosts everywhere around the world.

It may be too late to overcome the madness since they have no central authority, chief, king or leaders that can control them.

Lord have mercy. May God save any country they are hosted or have invaded.

Enough is enough. Protect yourselves from hate and poison from those trying to destroy you. Ask American Indians what they would do if God gives another opportunity.

Habah!

They joining new and not so new cases together in order to detrabalize it.

Even two of the major ethnic groups have drug dealers as leaders they worship.

Your drug dealer is worse than mine.

Please inform us about any ethnic group that are more tolerant and accommodating than the same Yoruba group in Africa or worldwide.

Do not know the difference between bigory and fact

Tinubu has never govern any state but Lagos, now they hate him.

They voted Against Yoruba Speaker Etteh with Tinubu ACN to install Tambulwa from Sokoto as Speaker.

They voted for Obasanjo against Yoruba interest Falae. Yet, they boast about it because they know Ojukwu that was defeated in his Senatorial District by unknown, Ojukwu could never be elected as head of dog catcher in the East.

Fake Lagosians!

Paraman:
Cost of producing in Nigeria is on the high side

You mean comparatively by African standard. wages are too high or arable land too expensive.

Maybe Yahoo Yahoo, kidnapping, banditry, drug peddling or rituals are more lucrative for the "lazy Youths".

He should replace Peter with Paul. Appoint dedicated men known in the communities but too honest and patriotic to be influenced into corruption.

- Be careful what you pray for, you may be granted what you will regret. Until the masses at the grassroots level stop obsequious glorification of their leaders, they are equally to blame for idling competent people around while calling reckless looters for salvation

Who else would Ibori and the Forty Thieves support?

It is my sincere hope that the judgement delivered today will be reviewed at the earliest time possible because it clearly stands the concept of federalism on its head.

RichBoy247:
I don't listen to thieves.

This vagabond was jailed alongside his wife, his sister in-law, his mistress who was married to another man as at that time, and his lawyer who helped him to hide stolen money. That's an unbeatable Guinness Record

I am sure some of you know that there are people that only eat puff puff and buns at parties.

LEADERS WHO LOOT US BLIND ARE ENCOURAGED & DEFENDED

The astronomical increase in food and cement prices are cases in point. When the Government banned imports, gave fertilizer, loans and grants to encourage local production, local farmers and dealers raised prices above imported goods. Their greed and excessive profits did not benefit the locals. So it is not only the leaders or politicians that steal legally and illegally by padding salaries and allowances, big and street traders hoard goods making them too expensive for the common man.

It is a political malpractice to blame the populace for voting against their own self interests. There is the fear they would double down. But the truth must come out somehow, the populace deserves the leaders they nourish. Leaders do not come from Mars. Leaders are responsive to the community culture, upbringing, our educational systems, the individual family members and cronies who get or eagerly expect returns from grossly obscene gains.

Look at the three leading Presidential candidates produced by the so-called Giant of Africa! Their politics have been updated to whose brand of cocaine peddlers is worse. African leaders like some world leaders ride and depend on loud gullible populous to govern. They gain assurance from the approval of shortsighted immediate pleasure seekers that vote against their long-term self-interest. Instead of draining the Augean Stable, they hold their noses and swim along. Ignoring reasonably clean candidates because they had no looting experience.

It is difficult to fish out a live fish in a swamp when most people just want a piece of the National Cake they think must not disappear before they get their chance as cronies of corruption, spending ostentatiously on conspicuous foreign goods like Nigerians. Recently one of the senators Abdul Ningi from Bauchi Central Senatorial District blew the cover over the padded Budget. He was suspended by his colleagues in the Senate for three months!

This is a pent up response. Certainly not to the thread or op.

crestedaguiyi:
The civilized and big shots are mingling together, cutting deals and living the life without minding tribe or religion, the poor and down trodden are looking for respect and recognition from their compatriots, shame.

keep making a fool of your self both online and offline, this is the same reason you cant stay out of your geopolitical zone for long.

There are plenty people from the east in the south, north and west, there are plenty people from the north in the east, south and west, there are plenty people from the south in the east, west and north but the people from the west are barely seen in the east, north or south in large numbers.

You dont hear this nonsense line of talk or thinking from people in the north or south, only the poor bunkums from the west or who have no identity

This generation make many of us miss well informed, friendly and tolerant brothers and sisters across the Niger.

Learn how to appeal for tolerance and accommodation in any community outside you homes.

Almost every thread, no matter how unrelated to Obi and Tinubu, boils down to them.

Yet, most of you cannot tell us if Tinubu's brand of cocaine is different from Obi's brand of cocaine.

Ask any Nigerian especially the millionaires why they want to japa with millions made in Nigeria. They blame bad leaders.

The fact is, most of them are worse than their leaders. All the money made in Nigeria, like their leaders, are wasted outside.

It is preferable to stop replying your "self-glorifying" comments before I offend some people.

Suffice to say that out of all states in Nigeria, you are the only ones that voted over 90% for your Presidential candidate and still cry racism against you.

SeeWahala:
All nigerians know today is that during the last presidential and governorship elections in 2023, after checking around the entire country I was only you and your yoruba people that attacked and disenfranchised igbos and other well meaning Nigerians who wanted to exercise their civic duty to vote by labelling them your worst nightmare even to the point of attacking your own fellow yorubas just and only because they looked good, smelled fresh and dressed neatly

Nothing you lots can do or say both yesterday, today and tomorrow can change that fact. I suggest you live with it and stop trying to shift your blames elsewhere. You and your people have shown the whole world your hands at a card game and you will never live to see the end of this betrayal against your own fellow countrymen anytime soon

Keep crying on my mentions and opening threads about igbos you hear?

If you only know how painful it is for some of us that grew up with Igbo to witness this dislocation. This generation of Igbo and Yoruba either ignore or become indifferent.

You've called us Unity-beggars, soft etc just for loving you. Even the Yoruba that died for your cause and that almost died are trashed and called traitors. It is painful; from love of Igbo to this mutual or un-mutual hate.

It is foolhardy to expect this generation of Yoruba Youths to turn the other cheek the way their parents did. You cannot take people for granted on their own soil.

How I wish we could go back to the old days. I still love Ndi-Igbo but I love myself too. No more mumurism.

SeeWahala:
Lol 😆 all you Agbad0rians are soo predictable.

Shebi you're the one who created this thread asking why people from your side and my side are always at each other's throats? as if you were tired of it and wanted it to stop, as if we Obidients don't know the way you guys say one thing and mean the other thing

See the way you just became the exact thing you're preaching against with me here for an innocent post I made.

Na wah. After you will start asking silly questions tomorrow 😜
