I'm not big on politics but you don't believe in your country based on situations or conditions. That's not how patriotism works. If everything were good, there wouldn't even be any reason to bring up the subject of if you believe or not. It is only in such hard times that one really knows who believes in Nigeria and who doesn't and he said he didn't. If you say you don't believe in Nigeria when things aren't going your way and then turn around to believe in her when you get what you want, then you must understand the perspective of people who don't believe now because you were once in their shoes.

Anyway, people change. Everyone has the right to have a change of opinion and Tinubu isn't an exception. Just that this kind of statements is strong enough to affect one's political ambitions. And it's not our duty to defend these politicians. They don't care about us. Let's get logical and not emotional. Having a president of one's tribe doesn't put food on one's table. Let's judge by character. If Tinubu is a good man and Nigerians want him, cool. If federal character demands that an Easterner will rule, it's not enough to be from the East, let's the Easterners look for a reputable leader who has the interest of the people at heart. Let's move forward.

Me, I'd say I believe in Nigeria. But I guess I don't have the right to say that since I don't live in Nigeria.

_{#NoToTribalism}

This is a wise saying

Op I guess you don't really know what you're talking about. Yoruba is who you are if really you are one. That's your identity. Nigeria is an artificial creation which is not eternal. Besides tribalism is good with the the right perspective. In fact everybody is a tribalist one way or the other

And it's already on the fp with a few comments. Hmmm......

Please Advice Me

Please NLs advice me, I am serving my Oga what we Igbo people call (Igba boyi) now I am saving his money mostly from profit, I want to use the money to start my business when I am settled and it has reached 1.3m but my mind is telling me to show him the money while the other mind is telling me not to show him the money.

Please advice me on this.

Give him the money but do it in tranches to avoid suspicion

Sanchez01:
Jokers. I had initially thought the agency would be responsible for bringing up the proper gun law and see that people don't overdo it but it is a crass agency that is meant to monitor and mop up weapons (by my guess in the south) while the borders of the North remain leaky and easy for weapon import.

The NSA and Totem pole aren't focused on disarming Miyetti Allah and their baby terror faction in the North but their focus is to mop up. Why set up an agency to mop up weapons when there is a counter-terrorism center that should do that?

IPOB, Amotekun, and the militants in our precious creeks will be targeted while baby Miyetti will have a free day doing what it knows how to do best.

I echo your sentiment absolutely.

Let's see what will come out of this. Maybe someone somewhere is pushing Ghanaian authorities

Patrioticman007:
IPOB members were said to be having Jewish prayers and training in martial arts when the DSS attacked them.


A proscribed terrorist group indulging in martial act in broad day light & praying in Jewish style as against the teaching of Jesus Christ

Did you also read the part that says that they did not bear any insignia, flag nor any other sign of identity. So how then did you ascertain that they were ipob

morgstreme:
Ortom used his own mouth to say,in a meeting of grassroot politicians,that the Fulani herdsmen narrative he kept flogging was for him to be re-elected..

If they were 10 hersmen/farmers issues,Orton exaggerated it to a 1000..

He is as useless as Ikpeazu of Abia..

Liar

omenka:
Foolish failure jailing people who criticize his government on social media.

Ortom is worse than the devil himself. A man who could boast of ONLY ONE good tarred street in MAKURDI in nearly SIX YEARS of his administration.

Pensioners are owed over twelve months arrears while civil servants are owed 5 to 11 months salaries. Rather than fix these problems, all he's doing is buying up choice properties in Makurdi. Look at the gargantuan castle his wife's brother is building in Ankpa Quarters. What is his source of income?

Whenever people start talking about his failure, he begins to play the Fulani card. Thankfully, the people of Benue state aren't buying that crap anymore.

Though Ortom is a sleeping governor as long as makurdi is concerned, but do you think it's right for miyettiallah to install vigilante in Benue State?

I don't blame the security forces rather I blame the Igbo leaders who are more interested in 2023. But they should know that nothing lasts forever.

You can't just label everybody Ipob. Even the very Ipob constitute of humans and not animals.

majamajic:
This Abia state governor has done a lot more that osun , Jigawa , benue and about 10 other states , but u can't hear them talk about their state governors , oyo State governor never commissioned a single project since he took over , but u can't hear about that , all they know is Aba , meanwhile capital of Abia is a very clean umuahia , I was in akute ,oke aro, agbado and matogun all in Ogun state , Aba looks far better than these areas , yet ogun people can't talk about it , they hide it , anyway maybe that's why easterners are fast progressing , look at ebonyi today , and Abia coming up . They should criticize more , and hide theirs

This is nothing but the truth. I wish the criticisms should rather spur the state to a greater height rather than demarket it

majamajic:
All SE governors are working

U are comparing them among themselves
Compare them with others, like Jigawa, osun

Exactly. I've been to some states here in the south and they are nothing to write home about, yet I've never seen them call out their Governors, but will be quick to insult other states all because they call out their leaders. Pathetic!

IamWonderful:
I see suya and nomo

Becareful what you wish for others

Cyberterror:
Bigotry! And this man wants to be president ??

When did you have the discussion with him?

AniOmaa:
Honestly the gross stupidity of you Aboki cows (I have to believe you are from the North), makes me wonder why you degenerates haven't been wiped out from the surface of the earth already. Besides not contributing anything useful on any positive index of note in Nigeria and globally, it just befuddles the mind how irrationally daft you cows try articulate and justify your filth. But them I'm glad nature is taking its due course on you subhumans, bandits, terrorism, diseases, high mortality rates and the likes are already doing the needful for us- by decimating the population of the North already. The more you subhumans breed your filth and spread your ignorance and crude ways of reasoning... the worse it becomes for all sane people left in Nigeria.

That's too harsh.

abduljabbar4:
I'm saying that it is easier to spot people holding flags and organizing rallies than to spot people that emerge out of nowhere, kill, and disappear. Learn how to read.

Did you see them holding any flag or saw them Marching anywhere when they were first attacked?

IronGalaxy:
Everyone bar yourselves is lazy to you Nigerians what's that?

Ask her if she's been to South Africa or ever met one

Blacknote:
That's Laz Umahi, his elder brother.

Okay

Emyzoloye5:
go Bleep ya self

Please Ignore my earlier post ok

Emyzoloye5:
Aswear...I'm surprised ooo

Shame on you all

That's HRH Eze Agom Eze up there

newace:
I want a woman that has common sense and listens to medical/parental advise.You'll respect ur spouse if you respect ur parents?

Sure. But some parents can give the wrong advice o especially in marriage.

WandaMaximoff:
But this is not her first rodeo now. Is this not her third child? Has she always been this way?

I think this is her first. The op said that he would have 4 more children but not with her parents

newace:
lol @ yes sir kind of wife ...i only want a wife that listens to the doctor and her mum..period !!

This doesn't make sense. I rather you want a wife who listens and respects you.

mariahAngel:
Not all mothers know what is best for their children and that is the truth.
You don't have it all figured out just because you pushed a baby out of your vagina. Experienced people are there to guide you if you're willing.

Yeah you're right. I must say the op is in a difficult situation. Maybe he should think of a better way to communicate to her.

WandaMaximoff:
Return her back to her parents house, she's not wife material. How dare she tell you how to feed a baby she carried for nine months and nurtured till 18 months?

Send her packing jor, go and marry another woman that will take care of the baby she didn't carry so she can feed the baby according to your specification. If the new wife doesn't comply, send her packing and marry yet another woman.

Keep marrying new ones till they are ready to do a better job than the actual mother of the child.

Come back and tell us how it goes.

This is not fair. If you don't have any advice why not ignore the thread.

helinues:
Those other groups having their secession meeting, why are FG not pouncing on them?

You're not getting it. You are asking Ipob to stop gathering because they are proscribed right? But do you think it's really possible?

helinues:
While you will sit behind your keyboard to be condemning FG without also taking part...

You are one of the enemy within

How? Is it wrong for people to seek secession?
Mind you I don't support Ipob but I believe their voice should be heard.

helinues:
Police can not stop unlisted group from having their meeting..

Ipob are proscribed, so any gathering is illegal

That's exactly my point. Ipob are agitators and it will be unreasonable for them to drop their agitation without govt. addressing the reason for their agitation. The way I see it, the security agencies should get ready to kill more people because I don't see them winding down anytime soon whether prosciption or not. Do you now understand why I said that this thread is not necessary?

helinues:
Other disgruntled groups from different region are doing their meeting with no government attention/interference..

You can not deny that fact

But they were not proscribed. But In this case, you're citing the ground that Ipob has been proscribed.

helinues:
That was after reinforcement cos Ipob members overwhelmed them...

All right. But seriously this thread is not necessary. Image you are not comfortable where you are and you really wants to get off but your captor wouldn't want you. Are you going to sit there and do nothing? I don't think it is possible for Ipob to just accept the prosciption.
