Burob: You should have advised your local government chairman to introduce the direct labor scheme, & use it as an avenue to give u employment, instead of coming here to give us advice about your President?
Charity they say begins @ home.
An average tilimbu supporter don't know that there are things that can only be initiated and introduced by the office of the GCFR and not by any other office. Everytime these tilumbu supporters will tell us to go meet our governors or local government chairman even in Fulani herdsmen related matters.
What is tilumbu doing there if we should turn to the governors and local government chairmen for everything?
KnowAll: Buy the bulldozer’s the caterpillar’s and the road graders and the trucks & train our unemployed youths to use it to build our roads. B4 u know it all roads will be fixed instead of giving these contracts to contractors who will build 1 mile in a year.
Train our millions unemployed youths how to use this machines & put them to work and watch our roads fixed instead no time.
Please advisers of Tinubu please take note, ADC please take note PDP please take note.
It can be done.
Tilumbu supporters will rush here to tell us that Ibrahim traore is using propaganda to rule.
Toosure70: Corruption, nepotism, tribalism and religion will destroy it my brother
True talk! People that desperately want "one Nigeria" don't know that, the British did not create Nigeria to work for the betterment of the people that's why they introduced divide and rule and religion.
WizardOfNG: The Obudu Mountain resort is a state-owned asset of Cross Rivers State. What has it's rundown condition fo got to do with Tinubu or where he chooses to holiday?
You'll soon be here shouting Tinubu when you get Malaria.
It's obvious that people like you will never understand the message because,You were programmed to see any suggestion for good governance as evil and insult to your god tilumbu.

ogododo: The #EndSARS movement was a nationwide protest demanding the disbandment of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), a police unit notorious for brutality and extrajudicial killings. It also sought broader reforms to end systemic police violence in Nigeria.
Yunusa Ahmadu Yusuf, popularly known as Buhun Barkonun, a prominent critic of the #EndSARS protests in October 2020, has died during a hotel encounter with a woman in Abuja. He was 47.
The #EndSARS movement was a nationwide protest demanding the disbandment of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), a police unit notorious for brutality and extrajudicial killings. It also sought broader reforms to end systemic police violence in Nigeria.
Yusuf, who served as Senior Special Assistant on Community Development to the Chairman of the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), Christopher Zakka Maikalangu, reportedly died days after lodging in the hotel on Tuesday, September 8, 2025, in the Karu-Jikwoyi area of the Federal Capital Territory.
According to reports, Yusuf checked into the hotel with a woman identified as Ruth. During his stay, he declined meals but consumed large quantities of alcohol.
On the morning of his death, Ruth allegedly purchased an energy drink for him after noticing his deteriorating condition. Shortly after taking it, Yusuf collapsed into a coma.
Hotel staff and Ruth rushed him to a nearby hospital, but he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Police have since opened an investigation to determine the exact circumstances surrounding his sudden death.
Yusuf, widely known as Buhun Barkonun (AMAC), had gained notoriety as one of the loudest voices opposing the #EndSARS protests against police brutality in the Federal Capital Territory.
In October 2020, Yunusa Ahmadu Yusuf, in a letter addressed to then-Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, urged #EndSARS protesters to vacate major roads in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). He argued that the demonstrations were disrupting economic and social activities in Abuja.
Speaking on behalf of the Indigenous people of the FCT, Yusuf conveyed their frustration, warning that they were on the verge of losing their temper.
While expressing anger over the deaths recorded during the protests, the group also lamented the wider impact of the road blockages, noting that farm produce was rotting and daily wage earners were being starved of income as customers could no longer access them.
The letter read: “We the members of the Indigenous People of the FCT wish to express our unreserved displeasure and anger at the blockade of our roads and the disruption of economic activity.
“We write to express our offense, our disgust and our anger at the activities of these so called EndSARS protesters and their blockage of roads, tributaries that function for the economic activities of the FCT residents, not to mention the needless loss of lives.
“We do not want this, and we reject these continued protests, particularly the form these blockages are taking.
“Indeed, the laws that make these protests lawful, reserve in the exercise of all vested human rights the fact that where the right of one person ends, the right of another begins.
“When the protest started, we members of the Abuja community gave it our support because indeed it was a genuine cause for the abolition of SARS, a unit of the police force that had begun to commit illegal activities against Nigerians.
“The government kept its word and listened to the protesters.
“It is however unfortunate that despite these requests being granted, the protesters have refused to return to their businesses and work.
“The freedom of assembly is not permitted to deny others their freedom of movement. That is an infringement and should not be tolerated or accepted by the government or its law enforcement institutions.
“We, therefore, call on the Federal Government to enforce the prohibition of these demonstrations and blockages of our roads.
“If the protesters must continue with the exercise of their rights, they must do so in such a way that recognizes and upholds the right of movement of other FCT residents.”
In a Facebook post on October 22, 2020, Yusuf claimed the protest had been hijacked.
“#IStandWithMyOpinion the #EndSARS protest have been hijacked and it’s now invoking security situation and we cannot destroy the peace and unity in FCT because we don’t have anywhere else to go. If you want to invoke security tension we will not support,” he wrote.
Yusuf also gave the protesters a 48-hour ultimatum to vacate the roads of the capital territory.
In a video attached to the post, Yusuf spoke about his earlier ultimatum, saying, “Let me also say the ultimatum that my group gave was 48 hours and the 48 hours just elapsed yesterday before the minister have bound all protests and all that.
“That is to say I have not sent anybody yet to do anything to anybody or to engage the people as I said. Now it's very simple, I wish to engage the people positively or negatively based on my assessment and how much I love Nigeria. Nigeria is our own and I still stand on the opinion that if only we want to repair and fix Nigeria, we must not destroy it because the people that have invoked so many security situations all over the globe today they are looking for a way to arrest the issue or even stop it.
He argued that the #EndSARS protests had been hijacked and called for a re-strategy if they were to continue.
While affirming his passion for Nigeria, he compared the situation to past movements, warning that, like Boko Haram, such actions could spiral beyond control. He acknowledged that some protests in the past had made him proud, such as the Bring Back Our Girls campaign.
“Today you are blocking Apu, tomorrow you are blocking Beda and about tomorrow and you still say it is peaceful. You cannot hold Nigeria to ransom, you can't hold Abuja to ransom. I insist, it's not right,” he said.
Meanwhile, some Nigerians have been reacting to his death.
For instance, Chibueze (@chibuking300), in post on X, wrote, “Is this the fct italics anti-endsars guy?”
Replying to the post, RENTED Victor! (@Purevictor) wrote, “You sabi the slowpoke wella.. The dustbin that threatened an entire region against protesting in Abuja.
“With all his APC money he cudnt afford himself a decent death.”
Meanwhile, the Chairman of the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), Christopher Zakka Maikalangu, has expressed deep sorrow over the sudden death of his aide.
In a statement released on Saturday through his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Public Affairs, Kingsley Madaki, Maikalangu described the late Yunusa as a dedicated public servant and a vital bridge builder whose contributions to community development were invaluable.
He extended his condolences to Yunusa’s family, friends, associates, colleagues, and the residents of the FCT over what he called an immense loss.
A wake will be held on Monday, September 15, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. at ECWA Church, Kpaduma 1, followed by a funeral service at the same venue on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, at 9:00 a.m.

IGBOSON1: Coming from someone like you, Otti should wear such a tag like a badge of honour! Abians in particular and Ndigbo in general are more than happy with Ottis' governance, yet a Igbo-hater like you comes along and thinks anyone actually gives a fck about your opinion! Acording to you, 'Otti is a 'disgrace', but the ilk of Uzodinma and Tinubu are Gods gift to Nigeria' abi!?
aswani: Oga bikonu rest, Biafra is an Ndigbo ideal and there is nothing wrong in it except when you want to start pulling other people's with their own distinct culture inside against their wishes.
Why is the advocation for a Biafran republic non existent amongst non-Ndigbo's? Even Ikwerre and Ìka, amongst others, that have a tenuous link of sorts to Ndigbo don't want to be in or associated with Biafra.
Abeg don't urinate on us and tell us it's raining.
The pettiness continues.. Oga let me tell you the honest truth, you are too small to tell me my history and am not that kind of man that will allow his enemy to tell him concocted and fabricated lies una dey call "history" that is from lagos, Ibadan gutter press.
If you are not mischievous you won't be telling me that Biafra that has been in existence long before Nigeria was created by the British, is an Igbo project. Who told you that?
The reason why you think that, the advocation for a Biafra republic is nonexistent in none Igbos is because of, diivide and rule that was introduced by Britain, FG of Nigeria and backed by yoruba media.
BATified2023: if ibos didn't kill other people's leaders n leave their, will those people come to play?
If yorubas and Britain didn't support Gowon in abandoning the aburi accord agreement and committing homicide on Igbos that were in the northern region, will there be anything like bad blood between the two tribes?
Don't forget in a hurry that about four Yoruba men participated in that coup.
BATified2023: it's obvious u don't know your history or your father lied to u, minority tribe didn't support Biafra n that was y Isaac adaka baro fought against Biafra, not only that they refused to return your properties and call it abandoned property because they felt u made them a war collateral damage.
The problem with u people is that u are so egocentric to realize your mistake, u will rather prefer to argue blindly than admit u are wrong.
So because u had issues with Northerners n they are dealing with u, does that mean u should encroach other people's region?
Same mistake u lots are still making till today n getting messed up for it
I should be telling you that. It's either you decided to be mischievous out of hate, or your father lied to you. How can you say that the people you are referring as "minorities" didn't support Biafra yet, many of them were in the Biafran army even Ojukwu's second in command is from the so-called "minority tribe".
This is exactly the reason why I said that, my enemy can never tell me my history, I will never allow that because there's every tendency he will tell me lies.
If you say the minority tribes did not support Biafra just because Boro fought against Biafra, I will equally say that the minority tribes did not support Nigeria either because, col. banjo, col. Ajuzie and many others fought against Nigeria too.
Lastly, the people you said I encroached their land are our people. We are related by blood than you so remove your mouth and eyes in our affairs. Nobody made you their mouth piece.
In the 18th and 19th century, you invaded people's lands and made them yorubas by force. But here you are today accusing Igbos of the same thing you did.
aswani: So Ibibio, Efik, Kalabari and Ogóni, for example, were Biafrans àbi? You are not serious.
They were only alongside under Ndigbo in The Eastern Region as part of the Nigerian Federation, nothing more.
Biafra has always being an Ndigbo project, either in the 60's or currently. Stop lookimg to drag other people into your incoherent project, they didn't buy into it then and sure as hell wouldn't do so now.
You are still showing your pettiness here. If you say or believe that the bolded were never Biafrans, then educate us on who they were before the British came to this part of the world to create Nigeria in 1914.
The name "Nigeria" only came into existence in 1914 by lugard's mistress but, the people of the old Eastern region had been in existence before the 6th century so, stop mentioning "Nigeria if you really want us to go deeper into the history of the people una dey always call "minority".
Below is the proof that before the creation of Nigeria in 1914 by the British, Igbos and the people you're calling the "minority" have been staying together as one without divide and rule syndrome by people like you.
aswani: They Eastern minorities were coerced into Biafra, they were not given as much as the referendum that you guys are hypocritically now asking for. Why didn't you do unto others as you now want to be fine to you?
Elders and leaders indeed, would you accept a few unelected so called Ndigbo Elders and leaders making such important decisions for you? Most of the people in those minorities welcomed the Gowon creation of states that gave them greater political control over themselves instead of the Igbo yolk they were under in Easter Region. At least Western region gave Bendelites a referendum and accepted the results, una longer throat for oda pipo oyel nor gree una allow Eastern minorities comot.
They were forced into Biafra and you know it, there is a reason why a lot of them were celebrating every single time the Nigerian army chased Biafran army away from their cities and towns. A reason why Adaka Boro fought on the side of the Nigerian army and used his native knowledge of the creeks to dislodge the Biafran army. You see ya life for outside now.
Isn't it interesting that you had to conscript minorities in your Biafran army? Why didn't you give them the opportunity to say "Mba, we nor dey fight for una Ndigbo Biafra, we nor bí Ndigbo".
Was it the Midwest that invaded your wonderful Biafra, why didn't your Biafran army go and engage The Nigerian Army through the Benue Axis, turning right at Agbor, that they were coming in from? You'd rather cowardly come through a Benin that was already demillitarised and harass the innocent civilians, killing and maiming as you proceeded to Western Nigeria.
At the first sign of engaging the Nigerian Army, the same one you claim invaded your region, at that well known area of Eastern Region called Ọrẹ, the taste was slapped out of your big mouths and you had to turn tail.
Once more, go and ask The British why they lumped you in with the rest of us. I am sure they will have an answer for you.
Don't come here to misinform people about Biafra, it was an Ndigbo project and nothing to do with minorities. Also don't justify Biafran Army on Benin soil, it should never had happened.
The bolded shows your pettiness. How can you say that the "minorities" were coarsed into Biafra as if there were not Biafrans before the British created Nigeria in 1914. If you doubt what am saying, just tell us the name they bear before the creation of Nigeria by the British.
stuffs2002: List of lies Igbos like to tell themselves:- 1) Nnamdi Azikiwe, Aguyi Ironsi, Emeka Ojukwu, Ben Nwabueze etc were not responsible for the Biafra war 2) January 1966 coup was not an Igbo coup 3) Buhari had long died in a UK hospital but a clone called Jubrin from Sudan was the one ruling Nigeria 4) Peter Obi won the 2023 election but was denied 5) Igbos developed Lagos, Abuja, Kano and the entire country except their own homeland
List of lies yorubas like telling themselves and their gullibles: 1) Ojukwu caused the war.
2)Azikiwe is the one that made it impossible for anything secession in Nigerian law.
3) January 1966 coup is Igbo coup even when one of the key actors (ademoyega) and IBB who happened to be an insider, made it clear in their books that it was actually not an Igbo coup.
4) that Igbo land is barren with no mineral resources.
5) that oil is ondo is bigger than the whole oil in 5 SE states
