kettykings:Only Gowon was in Lagos and he was preparing to flee when news got to him that the Biafrans had reached Ore. He was about to hop on an helicopter and flee to Kaduna before Alani Akinrinade rallied Yoruba men to go and confront the Liberation army at Ore |
At the end of the day, generate ten billion if your allocation is one billion then watch as you become another Lagos in record time. No big deal in Lagos |
wirinet:Lagos or Eko will have an odu ifa that founded it at inauguration and those people present when the Odu was received if only ten are the founders of Lagos. All cities want people added to them and all cities including Tokyo the largest metropolis, London, New York started as small settlements but they all have a dominant culture despite how cosmopolitan they may have now become |
enemybulldozer:Leaders develop their land and it starts from town planning, prayers and etc. Can you go to Germany and tell them it was not developed by Germans?. It would be an insult. Which Igbo or Hausa as ever held any important position on Yoruba soil to lead initiative for development? Don't you agree that without Nigeria no Yoruba city would be behind Abidjan or Nairobi? That we are behind them in organisation and development is because of Nigeria. Don't you agree? |
lexylaw40:Everybody had what they were doing with millions of people working on their lands and their governments had revenue too. Yoruba were not sponsoring Nigeria nor was Kwara part of the western region though it later became part of West Central as created by Gowon and Awolowo led government. |
gidgiddy:Maybe they did not have philosophers, psychologists and behavior analysts in the Biafran officer corps, even Colonel Banjo should have advised them against such an adventure and given that they were attacked by civilians in Warri, Benin and etc they should have known what to expect in Ore, Ife Ilesa Akure Ibadan before reaching Lagos, it was a badly thought out expedition. No Northern soldiers anymore in Yoruba land by then and Awolowo took Ministerial post with the hope that the fracas would be settled, he bundled the Northern soldiers out of the west with only his mouth and told them the west would secede if the fracas is not settled only for the Biafrans to invade the western region! If you were Awolowo what would you have done?. Put yourself in his shoes. Awolowo had no issues with Gowon who released him from prison and offered him a role in government |
helinues:Which group is asking Igbos for help?. Is it Ijaws?. The help you need is the help of the powers that be ie the US not help from Igbos or Yorubas |
Biafra and Nigeria It must be restated that Nigeria would have separated in 1967 if Biafra had not invaded the Midwest and the west with their Liberation army led by Colonel Victor Banjo a Yoruba. Nigeria would have separated because Obafemi Awolowo had already made it clear that if the East secedes then the West will also secede and there were already no Northern soldiers in Western Nigeria anymore when the Biafran army reached Ore in present day Ondo state and they reached Ore after being attacked by civilians of the Midwest with some soldiers killed by civillians and that was how the west and the Midwest were drawn into the war and before that Biafra was only facing attack from the Northern direction and given their control of the coast of Eastern Nigeria they would have won the war. No country has ever embraced invaders with open arms but people like Nnamdi Kanu and co blame the Yoruba for joining the federal forces after the Biafrans invaded their land. They further blame Obafemi Awolowo for advising the FG to not continue allowing trade in foodstuffs flow to the East from Nigeria until Biafra surrenders and that was why the war was brief though Biafra would have ultimately lost given the enemies they made for themselves and the number of warfronts they engineered for themselves. The animosity remains and it will remain a setback for the country but since ownership of land is not in contention as is the case in Palestine and there are no borders against migration in the ECOWAS sphere, the right thing to do in favor of peace prosperity and development for all is to break up the country. Afterall the groups involved in the tug of war are one of the largest of Earth's ethnic groups, bigger than most nations of the world. |
budaatum:Yes I mean that all sovereign debt including the 33 trillion owed by the US be taken over by the UN and UN granted income in form of payups by member states then all crude oil revenue. Those debts will be restructured because major economies will shrink when cost of living goes down. US debt may stand at less than 5 trillion dollars which will still have the same purchasing power as the old 33 trillion dollars in the USA. I hope you understand. Then many houses in Ilesa here cost more in materials than their counterparts in New York, Berlin or London but the value is like one hundredth of the house in New York, Berlin or London. Rent in western Europe and North America are sometimes more than one hundred times of what it should be given the cost of construction materials. This is what I am saying should be corrected as it is causing an unnecessary distortion in world economy that affects everybody on Earth in different ways. It can be corrected. A two bedroom flat anywhere in the world should not be rented out at more than 400 dollars per annum. It can be cheaper if it is an apartment building that is a highrise. Then If everybody is contributing to sustain the UN then the UN should subsidize the nations whose defense budget is keeping the peace. That is the point. No peace is free. It always costs money. Also no reason for any government to have budget deficits. A government like other individuals should have surplus and invest it and the US could have done it. There is no need for any government to be spending more than it's revenue because if individual citizens were doing that everything would collapse. Such should not be the norm. |
Lawag3:Saying these things in public is wrong. 1. Jesus is God which others can't become. No he is just a mere man born out of wedlock. 2. God or Jesus can forgive you your sins. No only the offended can forgive and an offender needs to meet the offended to secure forgiveness 3. Your sins will always be forgiven. No there is no free pass. Expect consequences for all your actions. No evil doer will go unpunished. 4. Jesus died for you. No he was duly tried and convicted of heresy in a properly constituted court. Those who died for you are your ancestors and past people who died defending your nation. 5. Salvation is free or by grace. No nothing is free you have to deserve it and work for it or towards it. 6. Those who don't believe all the claims above will be cast into the lake of fire. No that is a very evil way to describe God. You are infact slandering God and if you are allowed to continue your whole community will pay. Now you are free to believe anything just like you are free to eat anything but it would be wrong to allow you spread in public this very dangerous ideology that you clearly believe is absolute true. People who sell food should be licensed to do that. There is freedom to practice religion but it should not extend to freedom to spread this kind of ideology in the public space. That is the issue but you are of course free to believe and practice in private but let other people breathe |
budaatum:Maybe you did not read the post. It is not asking for debt relief of the type Nigeria was granted but a take over of sovereign debt across board so that everybody can breathe. Maybe you should read the post again. It is a proposal or a way forward |
MaxInDHouse:Mentality once set can never change. You as a person can never change and anybody that has put you on surveillance can predict you as if you were a robot. What you have decided to be is what you will remain forever and that is what determines your character which determines your actions. For example, the average human being will never do evil but some will under certain circumstances |
Lawag3:Not with unbelief of outlandish claims. If you believe foolish things about God then you are practicing a kind of atheism. At least hold God to the same standards to which you hold your Dad. However lack of deep thinking is the problem of most religionists and they therefore become victims of manipulators but some of the leaders are not manipulators though. |
Effects of a United Nations take over of all sovereign debts across the world. In the US, Japan, Western Europe and all high income nations that are steeped in debt, the effect will be that those nations will be able to lower their cost of living since they will no longer need high taxes from high wages in order to pay interests on sky rocketing sovereign debts. They can do this by fixing the value of real estate at construction costs only using countries like Ethiopia, Nigeria, Ghana etc as templates. A lower cost of living will lead to a much higher productivity in those economies. Imagine a Londoner, New Yorker, Berliner or someone in Tokyo having the same cost of living as a worker in Ilesa, Nigeria. That is the vision. It will propel an increase in the productivity and competitiveness of all those economies returning them to how they used to be decades ago. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) figure will come down drastically while productivity itself rises acutely. In the other parts of the world like Nigeria, India and other less technologically developed or advanced nations, the immediate effect will be that imported tech goods will become cheaper by maybe over fifty percent if not more than that. Automobiles, smart phones, batteries for electric vehicles, payment for satellite services by telephone companies and others, power generators, laptop computers and etc will become greatly cheaper. Maybe up to ten percent of the consumption of a typical nation is imported. Farmers across the world will also have their purchasing power more equalized with that of wage earners in the cities especially in western cities. A farmer or farm hand in Ere Ijesa will be more equal to a bank worker in Lagos or New York city for instance because cost of living will be equalized. How it used to be in Yoruba land was that produce farmers would be able to sponsor their children to US or European universities comfortably out of their income. It will return to being like that as a result of the new equality that can result from my proposal. The United Nations will be able to own and pay all the debts after those debts have been restructured to reflect the new purchasing power or value of the dollar which may go down by up to ninety percent. The United Nations can also have income in form of a percentage of national revenue of member states say five or ten percent, then from all the resources in the high seas as well as fossil fuel on the land everywhere before fossil fuel becomes irrelevant within a few years. Pay ups by member states to the United Nations can be reviewed upwards when income from fossil fuel dries up. A major expense that the UN should defray will be the defense budgets of the USA, Russia and China since those expenses are to keep the peace for all. The price of oil will crash immediately if the global restructuring suggested is effected but all crude oil income should still go to the United Nations. |
RepoMan007:That is just an executive summary. In his youth he was declared wanted for killing a police man but he managed to avoid arrest. He later became Pastor but what you did once you will do again, people don't change, they only become a clearer version of themselves. You can't kill a person as a twenty year old and say you are now born again. Under the same circumstances you will kill again. His body count his seven human beings |
Lawag3:What Christians say is that God will burn you in hell for unbelief. Not crimes but unbelief. We are talking of holy unbelievers here. You can't be threatening law abiding people with hell fire. God is not an immoral bastard. Do you get it?. Even if you nuke the whole world for doing nothing wrong, hell fire or infinite punishment will still be gross but Christians threaten holy people. I don't support that |
internationalman:Most traded goods are oil, automobiles I think smart phones should follow. Japan and Germany lead automobiles while US, South Korea are leaders in mobile phone. All sorts of things are traded up to cocoa coffee cashew etc but things from nations with high cost of living maybe up to 1000 percent of how much it should be because of cost of production. If that is corrected then farmers from Russia, Ethiopia, Nigeria Ghana etc who produce for the world market will have a better deal as their purchasing power will rise. It will rise because prices of goods produced by city workers especially in the west will drop. Then the internal economy is always the largest comprising of trading, services, agriculture, manufacturing, offshore jobs and etc. I don't think up to ten percent of consumption is imported in any country. Nobody produces 50 percent of what the world consumes |
obiekunie01:You and your loved ones will spend the rest of your lives at Yaba left by God's grace |
Lawag3:Your money or your life is another choice similar to what Christianity gives. I don't know Godwin Lawani. My name is Akin Lawanson |
Lawag3:Somebody pointing a gun at you is not threatening you?. Threatening people with hell fire for not believing fairy tales is terrorism and mind control. It is a bit worse than open cultism that young people do because it is to do with the mind |
Nononsense247:Before the end of ten years, the production of internal combustion engines will cease. Even in five years. If 50 million barrels of oil are produced, to sell 2 million will be a herculean task. In five to ten years time o |
SE is around same size as Oyo state or the state of Israel but has like over two times the population of Oyo state, therefore the only thing lacking is big, planned and organized cities, not that there are no buildings or settlement there. It is actually the most densely populated zone in Nigeria but lacking big cities. In the past before colonisation, it had no city at all except the capital of the Arochukwu in Abia state. Things are now better but there is need for speedy improvements |
Nononsense247:The only viable source of government revenue is the industry of all workers in the country represented by personal income tax. Any country whose revenue is not based on it is not optimal atimes not viable. Once you do it you become a developed country |
duro4chang:You are not alright and will die of mental problem by the grace of God almighty. Amen you mannerless idiot |
Enoch Adeboye was caught red handed in 2009 using Tola Ekunsanmi to submit edited character assassination videos of myself depicting me as a paedophile, rapists and etc to the Nigerian DSS to frustrate my social reform activism on social media, he accused the CIA of setting him up not knowing that the CIA had put him on surveillance since 1988 when he started using human beings for rituals, when he accused the CIA, they compensated him with money and he gave his girlfriend Rihanna who edited the videos twenty million dollars and gave Tola Ekunsanmi a total of twenty million naira half of which was impounded by the London metropolitan police. He refused to restitute with me and Steve Jobs died and left a fortune for me in his will in 2011, he objected and the power to approve the execution of the will was handed over to him by the US government. Up till now he is afraid of releasing the will because it will mean the end of his career of serial murdering and mass manipulation. He killed Bola Ige and Sanni Abacha as well as John Audu who was my friend during NYSC whom he personally axed to death. Before social media he had assured my parents he would make me fall in line as a born again by force and that was in 2000 when I was an undergraduate. He also harvested my fishpond to bankrupt me when I was in Ile Ife etc etc and used my family members to severally lock me up in the psychiatry, starting from 2012 when I publicly accused him, the hierarchy of the church has been aware of my plight since 2012, eleven years ago and that he is using the church's resources to trample on my fundamental human rights. This is a formal notification that as soon as I meet Barbara Bush who was married to me by her family in 2000 and properly free my hands, then I am going to take Enoch Adeboye and his church to court to claim all their real estate across the world as compensation for the twenty three years long assault. Then I will be okay. This is a formal public notification. Enoch has murdered a total of seven people, raped all his donkeys, raped his kids and raped a former male employee of mine amongst others. |

During an Ifa enquiry and what it takes to be Awo Orunmila The first cast is the Olori odu which is the chief Odu that answers your query. The second cast is Kotojale which means what will happen before it ends. What will happen at the middle The third cast is Mojale which means what will happen at the final end. If kotojale seniors Mojale then Kotojale comes with ire. If otherwise it comes with ibi. The ibi or ire will accompany the kotojale. If kotojale is Eji ogbe (ire). It means there will be an alignment which will bring blessings. You can then check for different ires for that reading by making two casts. If first is senior then you have that ire, if not, then you don't have it. Different ires to check for can include money, wife, children, promotion and etc depending on what is relevant to your query. What to note is that for every query of any nature, there are 256 possible responses and a good Babalawo must be able to interprete any sign as a response to any query. Therefore the scenarios are limitless. The spectrum of possible meanings to different categories of queries is very broad indeed. However the standard is that a qualified Awo should know offhand at least four original stories per odu to start with and know the ebos for them and also many other technicalities that can only be learnt from a practicing Babalawo. That is 1024 stories minimum to qualify to start practicing and if it is 1000 words per story, it will be over one million words which is like one and a half times the volume of the Christian Bible and that is for a first degree practitioner. You then continue learning to Masters, PhD and Professor (Araba) level till your death. No end to learning Ifa. |
The proof of God is that you can use a tool to predict the future. We are in a matrix and the end is predetermined by God. Only God knows the end from the beginning. Read up Adam Smith's invisible hand theory. It says people taking part in self interested actions whether evil or good will always result in an end beneficial for the whole which was never the original intention of any of the actors. This is what is always happening in the world. We are not in charge. God is in charge. All we can authour is our next action. God is the author of the play. IFA reading for the year ending June next year is Ogunda Ose for the world at Oke Igeti. Conquest will lead to creation/new beginning. At oke Itase it was Irosun Osa conflict will lead to blessings for the world. All these will happen to the world this year. I can use Ifa to read your mind, check what happened in the past, receive a message telepathically, ask any question. Life is much more than the physical. If you do anything in secret, I assure you Karma will catch up with you. Who do you think is in charge of all that if not unseen beings headed by God?. However religion is totally wrong and all I have been describing is scientific theism. GOD EXISTS and He is in charge but it is alright if you want to be an atheist. An atheist however can't be a Babalawo because you have to pray before using the oracle. Be an atheist but don't go killing people for believing in God |
donbenie:It is culture that makes you a human being. |

Harlekarmar:I don't agree about African politicians. There are politicians in this country with clean records that you can't point to a single error not even corruption that they committed. No moral bankruptcy. Tafa Balewa, Awolowo, Akintola, Aminu Kano, Shagari, Ekwueme to mention only a few well known names. Don't spoil Africans as if they are a morally deficient species of human beings. That would be wrong. |
MomohMrMoore:There are over 30 million people living in the SE alone apart from other Igbo lands out of 200 million Nigerians and as Igbos have income in other places, Hausas and Yorubas are also the same in their millions because they monopolize the industries they specialize in and have to spread across the country to access the market. Igbos are not alone in making money everywhere. They are just majority in some trades. |
