A Powerful thread.

Buhari media crew right now

#Covidiot.

Chai! This word go pain BMC dem.

The idiot in aso rock asked Jonathan to resign due to insecurity. Don't know what he's still doing in aso rock till now.

This colossal failure is returned again, even after supervising the most openly rigged election in Nigeria's history.

Of course, it is Buhari and APC. No one is surprised.

All talk, no action.

Good one.

This people are just insulting Nigerians with these ridiculous statements.

What does "Also rock rent" mean exactly? Paying the rent to whom? For a house that belongs to the State?

UFC for men. WWE for boys.

But the citizens have the right to demand regime change, afterall they voted you in there to do what's good for all. So if you fail, like you obviously have, they can demand that you get outta there.

Obamaofusa:
Reno dey press your mumu button but when you allowed him to do that to you, don't bring the West into your delusions.

Why is it that whenever Igbo is portrayed in good light, it is becos someone wants to press their 'mumu' button, but when you people are praised, it is legit.

Are you sure you guys are not deceiving yourselves?

Obamaofusa:
Bring it on so I can tell you a couple of Yorubas that will buy up the whole of the mediocre billionaires in Igboland and all the entire Igboland without breaking a sweat...there is none that is a dollar billionaire anyway...lol.
Poor people with delusions.

Yorubas deal in facts and realities not delusions.

Guy, this thing pain you oo.

Kindly direct your anger towards Reno Omokri.

Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri has revealed the secrets to the success of the Igbos of Nigeria under any bad
economy.

This comes as the country recently swung into its worst-ever recession in 36years.

According to data from the NBS and World Bank, the country’s gross domestic product contracted for the second consecutive quarter since the recession of 2016, the worst since 1987 when GDP declined by 10.8 per cent. Nigerian leaders have cited the COVID-19 pandemic as one of the major reasons for the plunge, including the #EndSARS violence which some blamed as well.

However, Omokri is of the belief that the Igbos always prosper no matter how bad an economy is because of their reliance on their productivity. He also added that they are able to thrive under bad weathers because their prosperity is not tied to oil, which is the country’s major source of revenue or the government. The secret to that, Omokri said, is their resilience.

“No matter how bad the economy, Igbos always prosper. What is the secret of their resilience? Wherever they are, their prosperity is not tied to oil or government, but to their productivity. Igbos are prosumers, who produce more than they consume.”

Omokri once said the Igbos are the engine of the vehicle called Nigeria. He said this against the backdrop of electoral malpractices that greeted the 2019 general elections in Nigeria where according to him, the treatment meted out to the Igbos especially in Lagos, was worse than the rigging perpetrated by Muhammadu Buhari and his co-travellers.

“The ethnic hatred unleashed in Lagos probably set back inter-tribal relationships by about a decade. Thugs were unleashed on Igbo dominated strongholds in Lagos and voters were beaten and prevented from voting. All these were captured on camera, yet sadly, maltreatment of persons of Igbo heritage predictably went unnoticed by the Federal Government.

“Even worse, the public comments of people in authority, both in Lagos and Abuja, appeared to legitimize these unconscionable actions. The behaviour of the Federal and Lagos state government in this matter almost seems as if it is now official government policy that Igbos are second class citizens. How sad indeed.

“I personally do not believe that the Nigerian and Lagos state governments fully understand what Igbos bring to the table. Igbos are like palm trees in the desert. If you see palm trees, you know water is there. If you see an Igbo in a town, you know progress is there. Not as if they go where progress is. They themselves are seed of progress that yield harvests of progress.

“To have a proper understanding of what the Igbo have achieved, consider that every Igbo man, woman and child in Nigeria was reduced to £20 after the civil war in 1970. But look at how far they have come since then. They turned adversity to prosperity. No ethnic group are as Nigerian as the Igbo. An Igbo builds his family, his house and his businesses in whatever part of Nigeria he finds himself. They do not exploit other regions. They expand other regions. It is a disservice to treat them as unwanted,” he said.

The greatest problem bedevilling Igbo survival has been traced to Ndigbo themselves.

Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu, the former Nigerian Ambassador to Spain and wife of the late Igbo icon, Dim Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu, made her feelings known Thursday, while flagging off the 9th Ojukwu Memorial Lecture Series is Owerri.

Her words: “It is a misnomer that Ndigbo refer to themselves as Jews, but we hardly behave like Jews. Igboland is backward today because a lot of our people live and develop their places of domicile. They only come home for burials and a few ceremonies."

“How many Yorubas, Hausas, and people from other tribes, built houses or industries in Igboland? We have high rise buildings, industries and estates across Nigeria.

“Honestly, the greatest threat to Igbo freedom and survival is Ndigbo themselves.”

She described as “very disturbing”, the news making the round that some Igbo governors have concluded plans to jump into the All Progressives Congress, APC, even as she wondered the benefits derivable by the act.

While decrying the plan by some people to push unarmed innocent Igbo youths to face fully armed security personnel, Mrs. Ojukwu said that such persons must have their heads examined.

She then commended Chief Ralph Uwazuruike for continuously floating the lecture series.

Earlier in his lecture, Professor Protus Nathan Uzorma, opined that Dim Ojukwu still lives.

“I was first, an Igboman before being a Nigerian. We have found ourselves among people that do not want us to go. Such people must realize that Igbo freedom and liberty cannot be negotiated”, Uzorma said.

Northern people should stop ruling Nigeria. u can't give what you don't have. Look at the squalor and poverty in the north despite the north being in power for much of the time since Nigeria's independence.

It's either restructuring (make all man manage themselves) or outright disintegration.

You popped the question to it, did it say "yes"?
How can you even say you got married to a pile of rubber?
The man obviously has mental issues.

Ogbuefi Trump. President till 2024.

Rigging machine.

Wisdomkosi:
“It’s my pleasure to introduce Ms. Amaka Ekwo, the press secretary to my office.

This guy is deluded.

Congrats, man. ,

God is wonderful.

It is actually the govt that spreads fake news when they want to deny their atrocities.

ogbuefi677:
Say "Igbo amaka " your pant no go tear.

Abeg, no finish person with laugh

I think it's best we make him President for life - "for our good".

Make she go sleep abeg.
Trump's the man.

Not surprised. Was not expecting anything from his administration cos I knew before hand how clueless he was. I was just worried we were about to waste 8 yrs.

Was a bit surprised though that his supporters allowed tribalism and pettiness to cloud their reasoning in 2019.

Anybody that disagrees with this govt is tagged a terrorist and attacked, yet real terrorists that have been convicted are freed and 'rehabilitated' by this same govt.

The "palliatives" meant for these animals are being diverted into private pockets.

Dangote has been riding on govt support and favourable policies since far back. No be today.

One wonders if Dangote would be Dangote without govt bias.

She's over-doing this thing.
