That is why I said people should understand the context. The Prof. was not making a policy statement. He was addressing a Academic/Business community. Secondly, non of these has taken away people's choices. Prof Adewole's calling is to save lives and he must do that at every platform he gets. That should not be lost on us.

Wrt situation in the country, I do not see the sustainability of solving or rather drowning our present predicament (self inflicted, i dare say) in socializing, drinks, Nkwobi, Suya and Kilishi etc.If you critically look at it, we need to be resolute and go back to work our way out of ressession. Interestingly, the cows and bulls for Suya and Kilishi still needs to be produced in larger quantity for hides-leather, Milk, Cheese, sophisticated Fura and Kunu, which are things we should consider exporting

FYI - I can die for "Asun" and "Roasted Fish".....

I agree with you wholeheartedly, however you shouldn't expect a vast majority of Nigerians that depend on this form of enjoyment not to feel threatened when a high govt official tries to condemn what they've all grown up to see as good.
Anytime I travels to Abuja and get back to Lagos, the first thing people ask for and value is kilishi.

Folks

1. The professor was addressing an intellectual audience
2. He was speaking scientifically
3. He was making references to clinically tested and certified results

unfortunately, many of lots cannot process this.....

So you get brainless submissions like

1. They want to ban Suya......
2. They want to take away our Nkwobi

Why don't many of you just waka-pass intellectual stuffs and restrict yourselves to beer-parlors and Romance section, at least that won't task and burn the "gaskets" in your brains

Bros, I understand what you are driving at, but in a country where the cost of recreation, overseas vacation and the basic things that make lives meaningful and bearable for a vast majority of Nigerians are way beyond their reach, where the only things that keeps them sane is little weekend socializing and football with drinks, nkowbi, suya and kilishi, then you don't expect them not to feel threatened or sentimental.
Nigerians are going through a lot of emotional stress right now occasioned by the policies of this government, so you should expect such mistrust.

This man should sit down at home and give a good direction to the economy abeg! Nigerians are not finding things funny again!

Ever since Buhari took over, more Nigerians have developed Hbp and stroke than those food items listed by the minister.
I regret campaigning and voting for Buhari.

Osinbajo is 1000 times better than all the Igbo political leaders put together

Igbo have no leaders - Ben Obi (2013)
That is the only reason they lack any atom of respect for any elder.

OSU poison is real, don't go near-- just a warning.

I used to ignore you but now I'm visiting my wrath upon you.
Truth is mine!

That dude you quoted is the most useless troll you will ever come on SM

Watch as those who once opposed Trump's candidacy will start speaking for him.

How did Trump manage to enter into this thread now?

PointZerom:
But you voted Buruji Kashamu to represent you in the Senate.

BK is walking free around, while thousands of your drug mule brothers are waiting for the hangman noose and here you are writing rubbish.
You get shame at all?
I didn't mention names nor tribe but you still managed to fit yourself into the narrative. SMH

you don't practice politics in Nigeria what you have is gang of looters and ritualist in ogun state,real politicians build a serious country not like your gang of evil thieves in the zoo u call politicians

Otokoto man. Enjoy your beans in NL prison till next year.

Ijaya123:
Who are those?

The drug mules.

Most Nigerians are excelling all around the world, but those one in Asia are damaging our reputation.

madcollynzo:
Who is now holding you from going?

They will ask why you are not supporting them to go

Rants of an ipob disoriented youth with no life focus.

This woman is useless, OBJ learnt his lesson early, but GEJ allowed this woman to messed him up.

Politicians will say any rubbish that comes top of their head after a binge of Hennessy XO

I don't envy people who consider drug dealing 1st career choice!
I don't envy people who are the number one cause of bad reputation for nigerians.
I don't envy people who sell death in the form of contraband, fake medicines and goods to Nigerians
I don't envy people who can sell their parents and children for money!

The average iboman is a cancer to Nigerians and they should be dealt with before they completely damage Nigeria globally!

Buhari, bring back death penalty for ibo drug dealers like you did in 1980s

You want them to use that one to campaign against him again in 2019 like they did in 2015 that he killed Ibo drug traffickers with a retrospective law.

If I have to choose, I will choose Deji over Tonye time and time again. With Deji, what you see is what you get, forget his brashness.
Tonye is the most unreliable and unstable youth personality I've ever come across on SM.
Give him food, and dude will sing for you till you are bored.

TimeManager:
Gej till 2019! . You're a legend..(humpty dumpty)
Truth is mine!

Sanusi LAMIDO Sanusi accused Yorubas of orchestrating propaganda anytime they 'lose a political contest' since the days of Awolowo, Have a read https://www.nigerianbulletin.com/threads/yorubas-are-the-problem-with-nigeria-by-sanusi-lamido-sanusi-elombah-com.111348/

I don't read blogs. Paste it here and let trash it out here.

SharkTank:
Our mindset isn't rebellious, its full of self belief. As an Igbo man I believe i can achieve anything, what is wrong with that?

Go and search for the meaning of rebellion in context of the way you are always quick to flash the Biafra card anytime you lose a political contest in Nigeria.
If you could not help an incumbent President with all the enormous power at his disposal, how far would you perform in opposition?

SharkTank:
Those championing the Igbo presidency cause are from the North Central, South South and minority christian tribes in the North East and North West. When Igbo president is mentioned, yorubas start protesting, well its you arent the only tribe in Nigeria, neither are you the mouth piece of other tribes in Nigeria

Name 5 of those championing such cause. I have no problem with an Igbo man becoming the President of Nigeria as I believe in justice and fairness, however a rebellious mindset is far more of a negative attribute to use in getting such position.
You simply don't have the competitive spirit you have in business for politics.

SharkTank:
We have been in PDP and there has been a rotation formula. When it is our turn, we will put up a candidate.

Goan sit down! No serious party in Nigeria will hand over it Presidential ticket to an Igbo man with the insane level of hate you dish out to Nigerians all in the name of wanting out.
Keep trying your luck under APGA.

flamyd:
but u can believe Moses split the red sea and manner fell from heaven and other Jewish folklore right? Hypocrisy

Nice reply, really nice.

SharkTank:
Lmfao. Says who. Biafra struggle has been around for a long time. As a matter of fact Nigerians talk about it more freely now than they did before and whatever discrimination that were meted on the igbos because of it is waning because they have paid enough for it. This are the words of tthe Emir of Kano, Sanusi LAMIDO Sanusi.

Biafra have been around and you've never failed to put up candidates for every elections in Nigeria and you expect Nigerians to take you serious.

There is only 1 truth

Nah, Im just dishing the truth

Your own truth, just like I'm also dishing out the truth.

SharkTank:
No zone has monopoly in determining who becomes president. Even the North West alone couldnt make Buhari president in 2011, however the SE-SS bloc votes is powerful.

2ndly,
Yoruba votes do not have the power to make anybody president. As a matter of fact SW vote has the least advantage to any politician because it is always split 60-40 for the 2 leading candidates

As at today, every sane politician outside Igboland have a level of mistrust for you guys, your noise of Biafra after GEJ ouster have also set you back politically for another 25 years.

SharkTank:
Obasanjo will say otherwise

You are angry, an angry man says a whole lot of bullyshte, and that is exactly what you are doing on this thread.

SharkTank:
None. But wait for the day a Yoruba man will want to contest for president and we will ask you this same question

Kid, learn not to be too excited about your place in Nigeria. It's been expressly proven that if you do your home work very well as a presidential candidate, you don't need the Ibos to win.

logicab:
LMAO. Tinubu sold out? What pact did Tinubu (or Yorubas) have with Jonathan? Are they even in the same party?

Those people have a warped sense of reasoning. They are overly too sentimental and emotional for my liking.
