PentiumPro:
Why all these advice? Do you love them more than they love themselves, it's people like you that preaches this sort of nonsense that make these Igbos think that Nigeria cannot do without them, meanwhile they are the one enjoying the unity of nigeria most.
Please let these people get their wish and vacate every single inch of Nigeria as her citizen.
May their biafraaaa dream come through.

Not that it's anyone's business if you all go ahead to form your own country. It's just that one worries about the outcome of such would be. In one day, what is to stop the genocide of Rwanda happening in your biafra?
In the north, we have yoruba populated communities, even in the east here we have amahausas. Communities of people of the same culture living in a foreign land in harmony, yet you cannot even maintain an Eze ndigbo in one place. At home, you even keep fragmenting your communities. There are many things involved in forming a country than self determination.

I just laugh in derision whenever I hear igbo youths advocating for Biafra. As a westerner residing in a core igbo state, I see reasons why your tribesmen must always seek refuge anywhere on earth but home.
The igbo people cannot live in peace with themselves. If they don't fight for land, they will fight for superiority. There just must be an issue to fight for if not those. Just few days ago, I was beaten up by some youths because I passed the front of their house without greeting them. This one is small compared to what I keep experiencing daily in this Eastern state. I keep hearing gunshots, hear of murders and kidnappings and so on.
I'll advise you to stay in the comfort of Lagos and use your Internet to advocate for better causes like overfishing or the plight of the big cats. You are not going to be able to live well with yourself if you form your country!

Don't mind all these guys blaming you, they don't know anything. I do the BB package you are talking about and I was recently tempted to subscribe for the 2g shit and it's all regrets. Try changing your IMEI to blackberry.com, change your IMEI to a BB10 IMEI, not just ordinary BB. Try sending Deactivate to 440. If all these do not work then we're in serious trouble.

I do understand that Telegram has all these innovations you are raving about but WhatsApp is still very much relevant in today's world. Some of us are not too obsessed with sharing best music, PDFs n stuff. We love WhatsApp for its sheer simplicity in one on one conversations. I would choose WhatsApp over bbm, telegram n etc any day.

Well there is something known as trying something different. It's the Internet and you know how rapidly evolving it gets around. Don't be surprised when the Whatsapp you just want to quietly chat with friends with, introduces more 'complex features'. You will bear witness when ads, bots and other stuff crawls upon the platform soon. In fact, it's already happening.

What's the meaning of this poo? I won't have you guys poking your funny fingers at Olamide. Afterall does Phyno have international collabo yet? Some artists may not need international collabo to increase their popularity, maybe he's one. Besides he's a self-styled individual and people like him all the same.
Asha has a lot of international recognition yet isn't as popular as Olamide back home. Like they say, who international collabo help? Trust him to include your beefing in his next release shaa.

If you are still stuck with Whatsapp, you are so old school. The IM app is more like MySpace these days. I decided to try Telegram and guess what? I really felt so bad I've been missing out on the best the Internet has to offer.
There is a channel that shares all the best music, pdf magazines, ebooks, another converts YouTube videos to Mp3, one reminds me of stuffs, another gives me detailed weather info of my location daily, there is one I could take exams, learn English etc. I get to meet several international people where we discuss broad based issues, (groups are 5000 capacity, unlike Whatsapp's paltry 256 or so) the cloud feature is exceptional, whenever you join you can still see previous messages and so much to discover daily. There is never a dull moment with Telegram.
The only disadvantage is that all these takes a lot of data to access but you can choose what to download.
Whatsapp is just a dinosaur without these productive features, forget the popularity. MySpace was popular too BTW.

How much are your fingerlings?

You are an agric graduate and you want to cross over to medicine? Have you practiced farming to the point it has failed you anywhere in Nigeria? When medical doctors are even thinking of starting farms over unpaid salaries and all. May God help you

Can you sell at 7 naira? I need 1000 pieces, coming to pick them from Owerri. Please reply

And they had to go and sight this ambiguous project in far away Oron? Didn't they see Ikot Epene there that is a nodal town with access roads to other states? Or don't they know that matters of health emergency require swift access?
If a doctor refers a patient from Umuahia for example, when will he reach Oron in one piece given the state of our roads? Or do they think such a project would only be servicing the needs of their people only?

Nigerians are such wonderful characters. There are phenomena that surround rivers in Geography, river piracy, river beheading, river capturing. A bigger body of water can encroach the path of another and literally steal all its water, more like rediversion. A simple helicopter view or drone recording could point out this fact. And to think people are already praying on it. Is the prayer directed to God or mermaid?

Mr man, you better beg them to retain you in the US army if you want a better life! You are just going to end up collecting 100 naira from motorists and punishing local Ekiti girls for dressing wayward if care is not taken. A word is enough for the wise

Subscribed. Can we have someone say 'I have tried it and it works?'

Paying graduates peanut is the new norm in Nigeria. The government championed this shitty development through NYSC and now, this nonsensical development.
If you spent so much in government institutions and worked really hard all to graduate and be receiving a paltry 23k, then be worried. Will you be able to proceed on Master's, get a babe and talk of family, private apartment and so on with the way tomato prices are currently! Let's think!

How much can I get the seeds in owerri?

This is from Kemi Olunloyo's Wikipedia page, (middle name is omololu) so we may know whether to take her opinions seriously :
''Deportation from Canada
In August 2012, Omololu-Olunloyo was arrested in her apartment in Toronto by agents from the Canadian Border Services Agency. After being determined a flight risk when her refugee visa was not renewed, she was remanded into custody at an immigration detention center for 7 days before she was deported to Nigeria."

Let's also remember how some Redeemed branches was using the pulpit to campaign for APC during the campaign days. I hope Redeemed members are happy with the way the country has turned out now. I wonder when Jesus demonstrated this manipulative giving strategy

When you have the likes of Lai Muhammad at the helm of affairs, you will not wonder why things are stalling. Instead of putting real brains to work, he installed northerners who are not always known for strategy. Even Fashola that did well as a governor has no clue as to what is happening because he's a SAN. Bunch of square pegs in a round hole!

I hope he comes back with a better hearing ability after the session with the ENT specialist. Buhari is not known for considering the opinion of others!

I hope as many Imo igbo's get to see this. You people welcome northerners with open hands in your state but they don't think twice to behead one of your citizens. I know how many 'amahausas' are in owerri with a lot of people from the north, your governor even went as far as building a mosque for them with state funds, a predominantly Christian state, that is.
Go and learn about the Mile 12 crisis to know why you ought to keep your benevolence in check

Poorboy:
TRUE BECAUSE IT'S THE POOREST STATE, NOTHING THERE TO FIGHT FOR... Crisis in the Niger Delta is because of Oil (RESOURCE CONTROL), In the South East because of Biafra(SOVEREIGNTY), North because of Sharia Law(RELIGION) SOUTH WEST empty land nothing to fight for....

You are really a poor boy with this reasoning. I am sure you are typing this from the refuge of Lagos. South West is relatively peaceful not because there is nothing worth fighting for, but the 'omoluwabi' ethos make us better humans by not fighting senseless, waste and lost causes as highlighted.

samcolee:
I was at the scene. I don't have any pity for this thief at all. B4 they could kill him twas very difficult cos of a ring in his leg. And he was chanting name of a cult group and they were no where to help him. If you know the number of people that they've stole bike from you will have no pity. Not to mention the one that went totally mad after his bike was stole right at his presence. He's still mad. No pity!!!!!!!!!!

These are the sets of people we really should be afraid of. You still came to the Internet to praise such a barbaric, inhumane practice, not only that, you were even there. Those that don't value human life can't enhance it. Some words are better left unsaid!

Unenlightened people. Meanwhile, on the same front page, a motorcycle thief from the South West is opening his mouth wide for the camera. These idiots won't burn the wicked politicians that hold their resources at ransom, just a poor, hustling thief.

This is cheap publicity coming from Pastor Anita. To those of you capitalizing on the divorce case to score your points against Pastor Chris and you are even Christians, you have my pity. Pastor Chris is one of the pastors heavily loaded and worth listening to. Let God be the judge, not you.

You had better warned your governor to handle the fulani menace like Fayose did in Ekiti state. These sets of people are not the types to be conservative with. You are monitoring them with helicopter right? I am sure that helicopter will be available to stop them when they sneak in to remote villages at night to rape women and do what they like doing best. A word is enough for the wise.

My name is Ekpang Michael Etta, a graduate of the department of forestry and wildlife University of Calabar Calabar, currently undergoing my NYSC. I was the lead programmer at the just concluded Nasa Space App Challenge 2016. I and my team (Team Amazing from Enugu) created an app called vergee to help stop the Fulani herdsmen problem in Nigeria while also providing Norman farmers with resources as they arrive in an unknown location.


We are so excited to say that our app just took one step closer as the Top 25 global finalists were announced this week for the NASA Space Apps Challenge. VERGEE was named as a Top 5 Finalist in the “Most Inspirational” project category, and is proud to be representing Nigeria in the international competition.

With over 1200 projects this year created by over 15,000 participants, our project rose to the top — a testament to the innovative capacity of Nigerians

On the weekend of April 22–24, 2016, developers, makers, engineers, and entrepreneurs took on NASA-designed challenges, creating a diverse range of solutions. Over 15,000 people world-wide took part in the 2016 NASA Space Apps Challenge, with 1,287 projects produced.




Vergee is a mobile and web base platform that makes the lives of nomad farmers easier by providing them access to information(water point, obstacle, police station, safest route, weather forecast, veterinary doctors etc.) when they arrive in a new location.

We made used of

Forecast.io APi

Please join in our excitement and support #vergee as we proudly represent Nigeria in the final phase of the NASA Space Apps Challenge.

There is currently Nothing on Internet. Org free platform for agriculture. There is also no application for fish farming that can benefit a lot of enthusiasts and experts alike. May we discuss?

It's just like the time one of our mediocre politician was trying to promote cashless policy but still wants to introduce 5000 naira note. You want to decongest Lagos traffic but yet want to introduce alternative buses when you know quite well you cannot get all the danfos off Lagos road in 1 day.
It brings to mind how molue drivers/NURTW thugs burnt BRT buses in the early days because they claimed it wants to replace their source of livelihood. Don't we still see one or two molues still strutting around Lagos today?
We all know that BRT ticketing and maintenance units are managed by private companies that belong to actual people, but the identity of those people is hidden. Instead of creating more private companies to pocket funds daily, why not truly liberate Lagos traffic by:
Finishing the 10 Lane roads, the metro rail projects, creating bicycle tracks and building new interchanges that could ease the free flow of vehicles?

Do they really think we are foolish to believe this piece of poo? When did fulani herdsmen start wearing jeans, pullover and 'somodobo'? They could have as well dressed them in suit and tie. The ones we see around are not as fresh as these propaganda. They probably want us to hold on to the idea of getting some (paid) culprits to have something to talk about. Be wise people, Nigerians ought to be able to separate facts from fiction.

How come this sad occurrence easily brings to mind the death of Dapo Awopegba and other students coming from a function roughly around this time few years back? Bus was also driven by their fellow student'? I presume something really diabolic is really going on somewhere. You Futarians need to ntensify prayers!

By the time these lovely flash drives spend 6 months in Nigerian systems, those interesting pictures will first delete, it will format and reduce the memory size, then load what remains of it with virus manipulated pictures of Satan and Jezebel wedding. No be Naija we dey so? Besides have you really thought of how our people will react to having several of their wedding pictures shared to several people! If you can do something like this, why not consider another business model like engraving names for university students? That has a better business opportunity than wedding in my opinion. Do you also do otg flash like this because that may seem more marketable here these days

Why pay 1k for 1.5gig when you can get 3gig on the same airtel with 1500 naira by having the data zapping problem solved on your Android by changing the IMEI to a BB10 device? He who has an ear, let him hear.
