The most annoying part is that he seems comfortable with those that colonized their resources. Oil wells and oil Fields at his backyard is own by Fulani elites still that is not a problem to him. His problem is Igbo. He should continue...Lazy people. Tomorrow he will say " na bayelsa money them take build Abuja." |
I've been Tell one girl I just sincerely liked that I want us to be in a serious relationship but she refused. Then she was working. Then after 4 months I decided to call her, surprisedly she answered me politely. Not like other times when she was always arrogant. Then later she told me that she is no longer working. That she quit. Fast-forward, we started relating. She comes to my house to cook sometimes. But I no chop am (knacking) becos I luv that girl, so I didn't want to be in a hurry. So one wkend she came, a guy called her and the guy was tell her to forgive him for disappointing her yesterday. After their conversation, I did as if I don't no what was happening. I didn't ask her who was that. But she was uncomfortable. Then after she had finished cooking, she started telling me about the guy. I told her she shouldn't tell me. That I did not ask her. Then she answered me arrogantly that I don't have the right to ask her because we are not dating. The thing pain me but I just keep silent. This is a girl I really loved. And she have been asking me money and I have been giving her. And she have the mind to tell me such thing. To her surprise, I just stood up, and I told her to come let me see her off. Since then I Neva call her again. I deleted her from my diary. But she have been calling. Guys should I accept her back?? |
Toruibestate:Why do u always compare Igbo states to bayelsa? Seems u are obsessed with Igbo. There u have fulanis and Hausa as the owners of oil blocks at your backyard....but ur problem is Igbo. Continue..... If u check the size of Iran and Israel on the world map. You will know that land mass doesn't count. See ogbeni....size doesn't matter In the scheme of things, if it's does Lagos which is the smallest state in Nigeria won't be the most viable and the richest. |

Former presidential candidate and former National Chairman of Inter Party Advisory Council of Nigeria, IPAC, Peter Ameh has compared the popularity of the former governor of Anambra state, Peter Obi and the former governor of Rivers state, Rotimi Amaechi using X space. This was contained in a post that he shared on his official X handle. This is coming after Rotimi Amaechi recently said anyone who thinks he’s popular should prepare to contest in the primary election of the African Democratic Congress, ADC. In the post that Peter Ameh shared on his page, he said 700 people joined the former governor of Rivers state when he hosted X space while 315,000 people joined the former governor of Anambra state during his X space in June. Peter Ameh said Rotimi Amaechi is not supposed to be questioning the popularity of Peter Obi in Nigeria. |
Political commentator Tonnie Oganah has recounted the fierce resistance put up by his people against British colonial forces during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, noting that the struggle predates the modern concept of Anioma. Speaking in an interview on TVC News , Oganah said the British first came to attack in 1881, at a time when the Anioma identity had not yet emerged, but Igbo communities were spread across the core Southeast and present-day South-South. “Before the British came to attack us in 1881, there was nothing like Anioma then we just had Igbos in the core Southeast and in the South-South where I am now. The colonialists came with what is known as the Ekumeku War. It took them 31 years to defeat my people,” Oganah said. The Ekumeku War was a prolonged resistance movement by Igbo communities, particularly in the Western Igbo areas of present-day Delta State, against British expansion. Waged intermittently between 1883 and 1914, the conflict was marked by guerrilla tactics, coordinated village defenses, and fierce determination to resist foreign domination. Historians describe the Ekumeku movement as one of the longest and most determined indigenous resistances in Nigeria’s colonial history. The British faced repeated setbacks due to the fighters’ intimate knowledge of the terrain and their united resolve to defend their land and autonomy. Oganah’s remarks highlight the deep historical roots of the Anioma people’s identity and resilience, linking their present-day quest for statehood to a legacy of resistance and self-determination. He suggested that understanding this history is vital to appreciating the cultural pride and unity driving the push for Anioma State. For many, the memory of the Ekumeku struggle remains a powerful reminder of a people’s will to preserve their heritage against overwhelming odds. |

"I loaned my ex-girlfriend, Teaira Mari, $25,000, but she refused to repay me, claiming it was due to our past relationship. I took her to court, and she ended up paying me $100,000. I left the courtroom smiling with the outcome” - 50 Cent "When Teaira Mari, my ex-girlfriend, asked for financial help during our relationship, I initially refused, emphasizing that women are independent and don’t need men to cover their expenses. After she insisted on a loan, I had her sign a contract and lent her $25,000, which she later refused to repay. I stayed patient, letting the debt accrue interest like a bank would, until it reached $50,000. I took her to court, not just to recover the money but to set an example for others. She had assumed she didn’t need to repay the loan because of our intimate relationship, which we both mutually enjoyed. In court, she was ordered to pay $50,000 for the debt and an additional $50,000 in damages, proving she couldn’t exploit our past. My decision to pursue legal action was about more than just the money—it was to show men not to fall for manipulative tactics and to caution women against expecting financial gain from relationships. I believe relationships should be mutual, not a transaction where intimacy is leveraged for money. I walked away from the situation satisfied, having protected my interests and set a precedent. ~ 50 Cent Ladies never paid attention when 50 Cent said he's a P.I.M.P and not à SÎMP and no matter what you heard about him, ”A B!tch ain't getting a dollar outta him” 😆 |

Nigerians are carried away with the echoes of 2027 election while the complete takeover of the country by the Northern cabal is in full swing. The bill to elevate the Sultan Of Sokoto above all the traditional rulers in Nigeria must be stopped at all cost and if you can connect this to the Indigenization bill, you will see that everything is leading to ISLAMIZATION of the country. I have a deepest respect to the person of H.E Sultan Sa'ad Abubakar and the institution he represents, but this move they are making is unacceptable because it can lead to war. Imagine a religious leader giving a total power and authority above all the indigenous Kings in Nigeria: Oba Of Benin, Obi Of Onitsha, Obong Of Calabar, etc. Let's assume that the bill scale through and the Sultan become the paramount leader of all kings in Nigeria and then power return to North in 2031, by the time they will finish their 8 years in 2039, they will scrap the voting system and submit all the powers to the Sultan to be the Supreme leader of the entire country. With my deep knowledge in politics and global affairs, those pushing this bill are mirroring the exact system in Iran, UAE and Saudi Arabia where the supreme leader has the absolute authority while they will have one yeye Prime Minister with lesser responsibilities. This is what is going to happen in the near future unless Nigerians rise up now to stop this mess. Don't expect them to come and tell you that they want to Islamize you and takeover the country, they will use all this tricky bills to stripe and stifle all your rights to render you powerless. |

Women Break Rules for the Man They Want—And Build Rules for the One They Don’t Let’s stop pretending women are confused. They know exactly what they’re doing. If she’s setting rules for you? It’s because she’s not trying to keep you. Because when she wants to keep a man? She breaks all of them. Let’s break it down: — 1. The “No Sex Before Commitment” Rule If she’s preaching celibacy and waiting for a ring? It’s not about morality. It’s about you. Because when she met the man she couldn’t resist? She slept with him the same night. No hesitation. No protection. No prayer meeting. Just passion. The rules came later—when she met someone she wanted to control. Not chase. — 2. The “My Dad Has to Approve” Rule You’re meeting her entire family just to hold her hand. But her ex? He was sneaking in through the back window. He never met anyone. No uncle. No pastor. No family dinner. Because she didn’t need permission to submit. She just did. The stricter the vetting process, the lower the attraction. — 3. The “You Have to Earn My Respect” Rule Translation: You’re not the one. Because the man she loves? He doesn’t earn it—he commands it. She’s not calculating what he deserves. She’s offering what she can give. But for the one she’s unsure about? Suddenly, everything’s conditional. Respect must be earned. Submission must be negotiated. Meanwhile, she was ironing another man’s shirt and paying his rent with no title. — 4. The “I’m Not Ready for a Relationship” Rule Classic lie. Because women are always “ready” for the man they truly want. Even when he’s not ready for her. She’ll wait 5 years for a man who won’t commit. But make you feel like you’re rushing things after 3 dates. It’s not about readiness. It’s about reluctance. She’s stalling because she doesn’t see the future—with you in it. — 5. The “You Have to Be Financially Stable First” Rule She wants you rich, responsible, and fully healed. But her baby daddy? Was broke, broken, and still living with his mom. And she still gave him her womb. Women invest in men they believe in. They build with the ones they desire. If she’s telling you to come back “once you’re stable,” She’s not waiting. She’s already gone. — 6. The “Let’s Take It Slow” Rule The truth? Women don’t slow down for men they’re obsessed with. They fast-track them. She’ll book flights, get tattoos, buy gifts, and risk pregnancy… All for a man she fears losing. But when she says, “Let’s take it slow”? It means she’s stalling until someone better shows up. You're the placeholder. Not the plan. — 7. The “I Have Standards Now” Rule Funny how “healing” always starts after the chaos. After she’s been used, dumped, and discarded by the men she chose. Now she’s born again—with boundaries. Suddenly she has rules. A checklist. A therapist. And a price tag. And guess who gets to pay for it? You. The man who didn’t get her best—just her baggage. — Final Word: If She’s Setting Rules—You’re Already Losing Women are not as complicated as you’ve been told. They are just selective. They submit to the man they fear losing. And they control the one they don’t mind replacing. So next time you’re faced with an instruction manual? Ask yourself: Did the last guy have to read it? Because if not… You’re not her man. You’re her project. And you weren’t made to be managed—you were made to be chosen. |

TINUBU’S NIGERIA: WHERE THE MASSES WEEP AND THE MASTERS WINE. Aare Amerijoye Dotb On a sweltering Thursday morning in June, 45-year-old Mama Suliat stood under the scorching sun in Ojota market, her fingers trembling over a basin of rotting tomatoes. She had just sold a plastic cup of garri for ₦400 , enough to buy one sachet of milk and half a loaf of bread for her two children’s breakfast. By midday, she had made ₦2,800 , not enough to replace the slippers her son lost the previous week, and certainly not enough to pay the ₦18,000 monthly rent she owes her landlord, who has threatened eviction for the third time this year. That same morning, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, freshly returned from a medical sojourn in Europe, was presiding over a closed-door FEC meeting in a newly renovated executive chamber , cooled by imported Swiss air conditioners and adorned with Italian leather chairs. On the table? A request to approve ₦90 billion for Hajj pilgrims, ₦21 billion for the Vice President’s mansion renovation, and ₦15 billion for a Presidential yacht , all in a country where over 130 million people live in multidimensional poverty. Mama Suliat is not a metaphor. She is real. She is the face of millions in Ekiti, Osogbo, Makurdi, Lokoja, Jalingo, Akure, and Maiduguri , Nigerians who now survive, not live, in a country where government is more generous with luxury than with livelihood. Her husband, a civil servant in the state education ministry, earns ₦71,000 monthly ,a figure celebrated in some states as the new minimum wage milestone. While states like Ekiti,Edo, Osun, and Borno have implemented ₦70,000, federal workers and many others are still trapped in the suffocating ₦30,000–₦50,000 wage wilderness. But here is the arithmetic of agony: Transport to work: ₦36,000/month Family feeding (barest minimum): ₦120,000/month Rent: ₦20,000/month Electricity: ₦15,000/month School levies: ₦10,000/month Health & Miscellaneous: ₦60,000/month Total Monthly Needs: ₦261,000 Salary: ₦71,000 Monthly Deficit: ₦190,000 This is not just an economic crisis. It is a national mugging dressed in public policy. The Nigerian worker today is employed but impoverished, paid but punished, counted but crushed. How heartbreaking it is to compare this present hell with the reality under the Obasanjo/Atiku administration, when workers were buying cars from their salaries, building homes without stealing, and proudly paying tuition fees without kissing the feet of loan sharks. In those days, teachers could afford decency, farmers could afford dignity, and traders ,from Aba to Zaria , were building homes and sponsoring children’s weddings with the proceeds of honest trade. There was hope. There was breath. There was movement. Students were fed and focused, not famished and frustrated. Civil servants could retire with roofs over their heads, not under the shade of regret. Compare that to Tinubu and his coterie , men and women whose stomachs do not know the taste of sacrifice. Their children school abroad. Their meals come with menus and wine lists. While workers beg for ₦10,000 transport stipends, our rulers pocket ₦160 million in vehicle allowances, in one of the poorest nations on the planet. Let us recall Tinubu’s own words from his opposition days: “Subsidy is fraud. Remove it and redirect the money to infrastructure and the poor. Nigerians will feel it immediately.” ,Tinubu, 2012, Occupy Nigeria protest Subsidy is gone. Nigerians are feeling it alright ,in their bones, not in their roads. Fuel now sells for ₦900/litre, food prices have tripled, and the only thing subsidised is elite comfort. He once declared: “Any government that spends more on governance than on the governed has failed its people.” Yet under his reign, billions are budgeted for bulletproof SUVs, palatial upgrades, and flamboyant foreign junkets,while only ₦10,000 in palliative crumbs are tossed to the poor, as if poverty can be cured by sachets of rice and expired promises. And who can forget his fiery call: “Power is not given; it is taken! And it must be taken to serve, not to squander.” Well, it was taken. And now, it is hoarded and weaponised. The Nigerian presidency has become a throne of exclusion, a pulpit of paradox, and a fountain of famine-disguised-as-policy. The contradictions? They dance daily like masquerades in a nation of make-believe: Fuel subsidy “gone”, yet oil marketers smile while citizens groan. Naira “floated” for fairness, yet manipulated for political gain. Debt “discouraged”, yet $2.5 billion borrowed without blinking. This is a regime of reckless rhythm, where policies come like tornados and their effects linger like plagues. The Nigerian worker, like Mama Suliat’s husband, is not lazy. He wakes at 5 a.m., teaches, toils, pays taxes. But he is deliberately underpaid, nationally ignored, and politically mocked. The cruelest irony? The man who once marched with the masses now masters the machinery that muzzles them. As Kahlil Gibran wrote: “Pity the nation that wears a cloth it did not weave, eats a bread it did not harvest, and drinks a wine it did not press.” That is Nigeria under Tinubu: a banquet of betrayal , where the president governs in opulence and distributes institutionalised poverty to the masses like holy sacraments. Let it be etched into the tablets of time: This regime has not only failed the people ,it has mocked them, taxed their tears, and buried their dignity under designer budgets. But history is not always written by the powerful. In the end, the Nigerian masses shall rise , not just in anger, but in awareness. And when they do, may the palaces remember: “The power of the people is always greater than the people in power.” |

The Ohanaeze Youth Council (OYC) has strongly condemned the recent suspension of six traditional rulers in Igbanke clan in Edo State by the Oba of Benin, Oba Ewuare II, describing the move as an “unwarranted interference” in the affairs of an indigenous Igbo community. In a statement signed by its Secretary General, Ifeanyichukwu Nweke, and National Publicity Secretary, Ukpabi Michael Authority, the OYC accused Oba Ewuare II and the Benin Traditional Council (BTC) of attempting to impose a Benin identity on the Igbanke people of the State, despite their longstanding Igbo heritage According to the group, the Oba in suspension letter, dated April 30, 2025, and co-signed by several prominent Benin chiefs, suspended six traditional rulers of Igbanke Clan following the community’s reaffirmation of its Igbo identity The Okiko Uwa Sociocultural Group had on April 23 declared that Igbanke is an “original Igbo tribe” with no ancestral ties to Benin, a position the OYC says reflects historical reality. It is astonishing that Oba Ewuare II, disregarding historical context, would move against the traditional rulers of Igbanke simply for asserting their true heritage,” the statement read. “We categorically condemn this provocative action and advise the Oba to desist from interfering in the cultural and traditional affairs of the Igbanke. The OYC, under the leadership of its National President General, Comrade Igboayaka O. Igboayaka, announced that it is expanding its unification efforts beyond the Southeast to include Igbo communities in the South-South and North Central regions, notably Kogi and Benue The council pointed to the recent election of Comrade Azuka Oka Etumudon, an Igbanke indigene, as National Organizing Secretary of the OYC during its February 8 national convention in Owerri, Imo State, as a “historic landmark” for Igbo unity“ For the first time, an Igbanke son has been elected into the leadership of Ohanaeze, affirming their rightful place within the Igbo family,” the council noted. OYC leaders further urged the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, led by President General Senator Azuta John Mbata, to amend its constitution to formally include Igbo communities in Edo, Bayelsa, Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Kogi, and Benue states. Highlighting linguistic, cultural, and geographical factors, the council asserted that Igbanke shares no cultural affinity with Benin communities. Igbanke people speak the Ika dialect, surrounded by other Ika-speaking communities, while Benin people neither speak nor understand Ika,” the OYC stated, citing traditional titles such as Eze, Obi, Ogele, Okpara-Uku, Ndi-Ichie, and Ndi-Nze as evidence of the community’s Igbo heritage. The OYC called on Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, to intervene and “warn the Oba of Benin against attempts to distort the historical origins of Igbanke through lies and conspiracy The council reaffirmed its commitment to protecting the cultural integrity of all Igbo communities, vowing to resist any external attempts at assimilation or historical revisionism. “The Igbanke people know who they are,” the statement stressed. “No amount of political or traditional intimidation will erase their identity.” |
The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has expressed its heartfelt congratulations to the Akiko Uwa Social Cultural Group following the successful conclusion of the Igbanke Unity Festival, celebrated under the theme “Igbanke Nor be Bini”. In a statement released by Senator John Azuta-Mbata, the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the organisation praised the Igbanke community for their bold declaration of identity and their commitment to celebrating their authentic Igbo heritage. “This bold declaration of identity is a testament to your unwavering commitment to asserting and celebrating your authentic Igbo heritage,” Senator Azuta-Mbata remarked. “By proudly affirming your Igbo ancestry, you have demonstrated resilience and pride in the face of historical misconceptions.” The festival, which aimed at promoting unity and cultural preservation, has been described as a “beacon of hope and inspiration” for other Igbo communities Ohanaeze Ndigbo also pledged to support the Akiko Uwa Social Cultural Group in their future endeavours, stating, “We assure you that Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide will partner with your group in all our activities, leveraging our collective strengths to promote Igbo interests and heritage Senator Azuta-Mbata further emphasised the importance of unity among the Igbo people, stating, “Igbo bu ofu (Igbos are one and united). Together, we can achieve greater heights.” The Ohanaeze Ndigbo looks forward to fostering a fruitful collaboration with the Igbanke community, reinforcing the ties that bind all Igbo people. In closing, Senator Azuta-Mbata extended his warmest regards and esteem to the Igbanke people, congratulating them on their remarkable achievement. |

During the Biafra War, Ken Saro Wiwa sided with the Nigerian government against Ojukwu and the newborn Biafra. He was dining with Sani Abacha and Gowon. He was dishing poems against the victims. He hated ndị Igbo. Immediately Port Harcourt fell into the hands of the Nigerian government; Wiwa selected Ojukwus property in Port Harcourt as his own. The selection of the Ojukwu property was loud. It was symbolic. That marked the introduction of the abandoned property.Wiwa will later be arrested by Abacha and framed for murder. His only sin was standing for his people and insisting his people must gain from the resources God gave them. Instead of them gaining the government polluted their land with oil spillage, rendering their lands impotent for agriculture. Kị́lling fishes in the ocean. He was tried and kị́lled by those he joined to kị̀ll more than 3.5 million Igbo people. In 2023, Asari Dokubo joined hands to stand against Peter Obi. With the help of Asari, Wike was able to rig Rivers State in favour of Tinubu. They did not mind what the Igbo put themselves into when they stood with Goodluck Jonathan. The Igbo were hated because they supported Goodluck Jonathan, but when the time to support an Igbo man came, they embraced Yoruba. Did Asari stop there? No, he took a contract from Tinubu to bring his militias to Imo State and Anambra to kị̀ll our people. And Asari bragged about it. He was eating at the same table with Wike, and they were sweethearts.Today, Wike has addressed the Ijaw people as a minority in Rivers State. He opined that they can’t win an election without being supported by Ị́gbo majority voters in Rivers State. To crown it all, Wike has shown them power by using his federal connections to bring a state of emergency to the state. This state of emergency means that the governor is no more in charge. Tinubu stands with Wike and not with Asari. Rivers State is crucial to APC come 2027. They need to control it so that it can be rigged. Just as they controlled Imo State as to rig it. This control they can’t get under Governor Fubara. That’s why he must go. The worst is that they have reached the level that he can’t be trusted. So there won’t be room for negotiations. They want him out.Can Asari replicate what he did in Imo in Rivers State? The answer is no. Asari is not strong. What Asari did in Imo, the kị́llings, and the brandishing of boys with sophisticated guns were all done with the power of the Federal. If Asari does anyhow, he will see anyhow. Asari is already committed. You can’t commit and remain the same. If the going gets tough, Asari will even disappoint Fubara. The Ijaw as a people has never reciprocated the love Igbo people had always shown to them. Rather they are indoctrinated to think Ịgbo people are after the natural resources they have.The Igbo don’t need anyone to be great more than others need them. This is not boasting. This is reality. The Igbo in South East are rich both in Human resources and natural resources. Imo has oil and they are the highest deposit of gas. Abia and Anambra has oil. Enugu is rich in coal, while Ebonyi is rich in Agriculture and stones. In your so-called South South, Igbo people are the majority there. They are also rich in human resources and oil. This you must know. |
