But a source in the area told Vanguard that the election in the unit was marred by apathy. The source also disclosed that the voting strength of the unit is 2,421,

Vanguard is a useless newspaper. They are still depending on source in this day and age. Where is Portharcourt to the extent they find it expensive and difficult to send their correspondent to give us first hand report .

hinwazaka:
Don't worry OP. The hotel where they have lodged the encoders and hackers has been located. About 50 freedom fighters are encircling the hotel. They will be bled dry by Kalashnikov's and Ak's. They were warned. About 20% of them are YORUBAS.

Na wa o. This election is something else.

This is in spite of the fact that Governor Ortom on taking over last year had gone to great length to negotiate peace moves with the herdsmen. But, apparently, the more the herdsmen are appeased, the more flagrant and audacious they carry on with their activities.

The President's response to this issue have been disappointing but what's is more disappointing is the response of the Governor.

Imagine a Governor negotiating a peace moves with the criminals who are killing your people...... What rubbish! The Governor should be impeach for not knowing his job.

This is the first time I'm getting excited about an election since the last general election.

There is just so much at stake.

Point of correction, the political thugs are not killing each other because of the policians. They are killing each other because of the money..... Money that's not even 0.0001 of what will accrue to the winner of the election.

The security operatives should kindly do their job and arrest everyone that's arrestable.

SMH.......... Wike is seriously getting scared.

Jobless OP!

CyberWolf:
You are just a shameless coward.. Had it been it's Igbos that are fighting and killing Yorubas in Lagos now, only God knows the kind of bitter stinking abuse you and your fellow goons would've lashed at Igbo nation by now . But here it is the hausa/fulani killing you people in your compound, you didn't deem it fit to condemn them.. You people are very very annoying and hopelessly cowards.. Same way Omenka, a famous Igbo hater ran away from NL since fulanis started slaughtering his Agatu people... Just go and hide your face in shame..

You see what I'm saying! Unnecessary hatred!

Please don't quote me again o.

Eddygourdo:
if I deny that Wat u said about my fellow brothers isn't true, then big shame to me, I wondered that too, apparently it appears the Igbos on this forum are problematic. But I stoll accuse the victim card thing, so far as one doesn't agree with a position shouldn't make one a victim, even as an igbo man, I have been subject to abuse, threats and the likes because I object to the Biafran cause nor cos I refuse to be anti buhari. It's an indoctrination that has become common place. But madam the show of shame observed here doesn't reflect on the true perceptions nor character of the igbo man. We are generally peace loving, money centric people.

I can't argue the bolded words.

Observant:
You seek to redress a situation by pointing accusing fingers? Every one has good and bad stories across the divide. You can't hold on to a deluded illusion of Igbos hating you and the same time expect the next person to let go of his conviction of your hating him too.
If you want to make a difference, the be that difference if not the shut up and continue in with the bigotry.

God bless you for quoting that statement. That's why I emphasize on nairaland and majority .

That's the point I want everyone to realise. Every tribe have the beautiful, the ugly and the bad living amongst them.

Don't judge a tribe by the few bad ones.

Eddygourdo:
ok will leave that (singleness) am not searching, the Igbos have been marginalised but most often is that, the Igbos have marginalised their mentality towards playing the victim card in all situations. Guess that's why the lash out. No true igbo man hates another tribe, visit the south East and observe for urself. What you notice on nairaland is people sticking to a stereotype of heckling the other tribe. It doesn't represent reality on the ground. The same hate you accuse is also observed by the yorubas on igbo issues. It's a nairaland malaise madam.

I know what I'm saying. The hatred is not limited to just tribal thread. If it's just Yoruba vs Igbo thread or whatever tribal thread.... No qualms because all the major tribe are all guilty on nairaland .

But seeing that hatred in threads on economic and security issues that concerns our lives is weaking.

No matter how you hate the President or this country it should never be over our well being.

dfrost:
I totally agree with you on that. Killing people that are not privy to a matter doesn't make sense to me. Abducting a little child? Haba... I couldn't close my eyes just not to imagine what they have done to the little one...

I also can't imagine what the parents are going through right now.

You have to witness how a colleague of mine who was staying in that environment was crying Last Thursday because her kids were all alone at home.

Eddygourdo:
ur likely yoruba, I am igbo, yet I agree with Wat you said. Even in war there should be decorum. The hausas lack that. To enter a person's home for murder and destruction is taboo. Guess you all see why the Igbos hold the hausa to grievance. They a barbaric. The earlier the south rise in unison, the better for us. We might one day fight another but such a fight will be honourable, like you pointed out. Are u single ma'am?

My issue with majority of Igbos(nairaland) is your hatred for everybody. Your hatred beclouds your judgement. You guys comment from the point of hatred.

Kindly leave my singleness from this discussion.

This is total rubbish! I'm not interested in what causes the fracas but going into people's home to attack them is unacceptable!

Yoruba's thugs will never do that and this not me being tribal. No matter the issue, if they are fighting, they know themselves. You will never see them deliberately killing innocent people.

This is the kind of news I love reading.

aresa:
Covers airlines based in both countries.

So why this long article? Criticising for the sake of criticism.

President Muhammadu Buhari was in Qatar last week and the major news that came out of the visit was the signing of Bilateral Air Services Agreement (BASA) between Nigeria and Qatar to pave way for direct flights between major cities of both countries.

Is the agreement between Nigeria airway and Qatar airway? Does the agreement means other airways owned and based in Nigeria can't travel directly to Qatar? Do Qatar have only one carrier operating in her airspace? If No do Qatar airway have have an exclusive right to travel into this country?

I'm beginning to love this lady.

tunjion:
No, any sane person knows that a 13/14 year old child subject to kidnap and rape will react the same. She has developed a dependency mindset on the abductor. She rely on the kidnapper for her survival. Face with unfamiliar faces she reacted as expected.


Mind u she is pregnant and under hypnotism. Her mind have been altered to the point that she speaks Hausa fluently and read arabic quaran in just 8 months.

Psychology 101. All these without examining and interrogating Ese.

Have you ever though that for her to be this fluent, it's possible she has been dating the guy for a long time?

tunjion:
A 13 year old child cannot even go to market without her mother by her side. A 13 year old child cannot consent and anybody interfering with such children is categorized as a peadophile. They deserve to rot in jail, as u say or even capital punishment to drive the message to other peadophiles period.

The earlier you wake up the better it will be for you. You better start watching your teenage kids with hawk eyes or they will sell you the way Ese sold her parents to the world.

tunjion:
Can u prove that she was not taken? Just today 3 girls were taken in Lagos? Did Chibok girls also go happily with Boko Haram?

Afterall, along the way they had opportunity to cry for help in that numbers? U talk as if u are Sanusi spokes person.


First they claim she is 17, then they release a video of a pregnant and confused child as evidence of consent. Now she made a decision to go with the man and wasn't forces. Were u there?

I can see from the video you posted that she was unwillingly to go for someone who was kidnapped and raped for 5 months.

How do you know she was kidnap and rape? Were you also there?

tunjion:
I doubt u are a woman. However, let us say u are and i kidnap u and rape u, i will leave prison and death penalty to come oand have a say in your fathers house.

You're comparing orange to Apple but let me go with the flow. If you kidnapped and raped me obviously as a 14 years old I expect my parents to take me to hospital the period it occurred for emergency treatment and expected you to rot in jail for that.

But this is a case of a teenager willingly going with a guy who's also a teenager to his state even if she's below the age of consent. She wasn't forced. She has a lot of opportunity to cry for help but she didn't and still do not.

tunjion:
A paedophile has a say and right with a baby? A criminal that cannot be trusted around children?


Wat happened to Ese right? Wat happened to her parents right? Wat happened to her community rights?


I give up, please dont quote me from yaba tech again.

Mbanu! The father of the baby have a say in what happens to his baby even if he's a mad man. It doesn't stop justice taking his course

tunjion:
Make una see who i dey follow talk.

. I'm telling you the fact.

tunjion:
Maybe u need your 12 year old child to be in that position then u can tell me how market. The problem is some of u are insensitive, it first need to happen to u before u know how it feels.

Mr sensitive, I don't have to be in that position to know how the parent will feel. They obviously hope and want more from their daughter . But the damage have been done.

At this point, the father of the baby have a say in what happens to the baby. It's no longer the parents decision.

tunjion:
I expect the Bayelsa government and her parents to take appropriate steps to relocate the family and ensure Ese is returned to a position that She can have a chance at life. She is not ready to be anybody parent at 14 years. She could not even save herself from Yanusi and Sanusi.

So you think aborting the baby is the solution? With all your death to Islam rant, I even thought you are a born again Christian.

It is not today that they wrote to Sanusi, but he held the girl until She passed the time period for abortion and then released her.

Oh! So if your teenage daughter get pregnant, you'll take her for abortion.

And you're acting so holy and as though you're above reproach.

Omeny:
God bless u jharee my able Gov! God bless U!

But my question is, There's a kidnap of girls in lag,everybody is shouting Ambode here n there but when same happened in Chibok,nobody call upon the gov there but kept calling GEJ diff derogatory names!

Where are these pple now,have they gone so Old,dumb or dead? because I haven't heard anybody saying we should hold Buhari responsible!

Why do we hate ourselves these much and doing these things to ourselves?

Borno state was under state of emergency meaning there was no Governor to blame.

Last week when the herdsmen ran over Benue state, who did most Nigerians blame? Was it not rightly Buhari?

The earlier you guys realise that Jonathan is a failure and has become a history the better for you guys.

@post Ambode should spare us all these presidential-battling-terrorist grammar and deliver those young girls from the hands of their kidnappers.

Don't mind the haters. Although I'm of her earlier critic due to what I read but so far she has continuously prove me wrong. Though she has foreign accent but she's a patriot. She may look soft but she's determined. She may look out of sorts but she made for for it with her passion. She may not be an expert but she definitely can communicate issues in simple terms.

She totally bought me over to her side with that infamous 16 +6 doesn't equate video.

Hopefully she will also wow her critics.

Still no comment from the Governor. Is there no Government in Benue state? Is the Governor a fulani man?

The Minister of Finance is not putting on her scarf.
