IGBOSON1: Why does Anambra always carry first!?

Imo needs to pull their socks up!

Bros, see o. Imo that u used to top like no man's business

This table is so instructive.
I am glad that female pupils are waxing stronger. More females passed more than their male counterparts. The southerners passed more than their northern counterparts.
So wish our northern elected officials shall take this as a challenge and take education in their areas to another level, we will all be happy for it. Andd we pray for our children in the troubled north east.
Let's keep this thread clean, it's the lives of the future ones that's at stake here.

OrangeDream: My point is,the speed with which Ebola kills & its very active contagious nature makes it extremely (if not impossible) to contain..So,no solution my man..We jus hav 2 learn 2 live wit it

agree with u. It's a virus. Doesn't show in d face. And no cure yet.

asadike: i heard that when he made d statement, d igbo dignitaries present were grining 4rm ear to ear. Chai, shame go catch gowon o.

if I were there, I would have physically bundled him out of the hall

raumdeuter: When was the date of this Awolowo coup, How does a civilian plan a coup

guy, civilians plot coups too. In Madagascar, a former club dj, turned mayor, planned coup and ousted the immediate former president.

Even Japan, who didn't commit up to one-tenth of the war crimes gowon, obasanjo, awolowo and adekunle committed, has apologised for their 2nd world war atrocities. Gowon is just postponing the evil day, because one day he, his children or his grand children must apologise to the igbos for the genocide he committed against us. We are igbos, we never forget. And so we say, never again shall such evil be meted against us without a ten-fold retaliation.

irishCream: what do u block on fb and twitter? Otondo

Godwin978: Seun i think nairaland shounld have a dislike button,and delete post which is the most importan

irishCream: Seun we need a block button!!! Very very important in any socal network

who or what are you blocking? Members? Posts?

Kill them all. Starting with shecow

NewsBliss: but why cant that money be used immediately?

it can't be used immediately because our thieving governors are defaulting in paying their own counterpart funding. And until they pay, the federal govt part must remain with CBN

Better lying idle, until we find seasoned administrators to administer it, than stolen and squandered

OrangeDream: We can only manage dis new menace called Ebola..It can't be contained..A virus is a virus..U can't totally eradicate it..Or else,HIV wud hav bin history by now..Na only God go help us..Don't stay hopeful..Ur government can't help u on dis one..D harsh truth

HIV will be extremely difficult to contain because it is mainly a sexxually transmitted disease. And people must have sexx. And its incubation period is so so long. Unlike ebola which is not air borne, but only transmitted by contact with someone already down with it. And it's incubation period is just about 3 weeks.

Is it not an act of immeasurable wickedness for a person who knows fully well they had primary or secondary contact with affected victims to sneak into another people's country and spread the disease? Such people like sawyer should be declared 'Enemy of the State'

donedy: The OP has a valid point!Those minor things, overlooked by aphoristic orthodox mentality, need to be addressed, in order to get rid of bigotry and tribal dogmatism.

Why didn't u complain when it was only English and Arabic that were on the naira notes?

And what other languages to u want to be added? Banza bakwai?

Good one. More reasonable than the 20 million naira Kesh was asking for

Op, try better next time. Ikwerre is 100% igbo.

emmatok: Why the insults,
Educate yourself, Ibadan is city divided into 5 local governments.
I thought you created this thread for intellectual discourse, not knowing its another ANTI-IBADAN rant by Bigots.

don't mind the Op, I thought same too. But seeing it is a troll, and I'm not ready to feed the troll, I'm out.

gbanikiti: I said Lagos and not Lagos state. And please be corrected, ibadan is a place in oyo state. Lagos island is a city. Thank me later

see u lagos city comprises of the islands (lagos, ikoyi, VI and Apapa) and d mainlands (oyingbo, ebutte metta, yaba, surulere and co) lagos island is just an area which is part of the city.

ibedun: Understandably the concept of city is very new to our Eastern brothers.

Ibadan was named the second largest city in Africa for sometime behind Cairo.

Cairo is an old city like Ibadan. Just like Timbuktu and Kano in the century before last.

don't make it an igbo thing. I know ibadan is a big city and I'm arguing with the Op on that

gbanikiti: Bros, with 2million naira you can own an estate at ibadan. This is not a joke.


I didn't call egbeda when I was mentioning Lagos island. Still on the matter, egbeda is well developed than ibadan.

you are turning the whole thing to a joke. Serious.

emmatok: Ibadan is a city in Oyo state, but the whole of lagos is not a city.
The Lagos city are some parts of lagos mainland and lagos island.

that's where they mistake it. There's a lagos city different from lagos state. There kaduna city in kaduna state, there's kano city in kano state, there's nassarawa town in nassarawa state, there's enugu city in enugu state. Everybody keep saying lagos as if lagos city is same as lagos state. Are u saying all those rural epe, badagry etc are all parts of lagos city?

gbanikiti: You don't know how to sleep. And please understand me, ibadan generally is big no doubt, but the little developed areas in ibadan aint upto 2km. There's really nothing in ibadan at all. And am so serious about it. The land at ibadan is just a waste. How can u call ibadan a city where a flat of 2bedroom goes for 50k a year?

how much is 2 bedroom in lagos? My friend in egbeda is paying 150k for 3 bedroom, while i'm paying almost 2 million for same in utako, abuja

Op, it is not number of tertiary institutions in a place that makes it a city or not. Ibadan is a city. I remember those days while going from Minna to lagos, it's only in ibadan that you will be passing, and then sleep and wake, and you are still in ibadan, and you still sleep and wake again, and you are still in ibadan. Ibadan is a big city in all definition.
What then will you say of abuja that doesn't have any single tertiary institution (uni abuja is in gwagwalada a rural town 45 minutes from abuja city)?

Lagos city is so far different from lagos state. Ikeja, epe, badagry, ajah, badore, and all the rest are not part of lagos city. Lagos city are just the islands - lagos, apapa, ikoyi and VI, and d mainland like yaba, surulere, oyingbo and igbobi. Lagos is now called a mega city because towns like lekki, ikeja and ojota and the rest are now forming part of it.
I really get angry when these yoruba so called lagosians don't know lagos boundary

komek: @ OP, pls nxt time don't beg a Nigerian Police Officer. Cos as soon as u do, he starts seeing ur weak point and wud always capitalise on that to hit u. They are illiterate psychologists. That's the only thing they learn at the Police college. Another truth, don't follow them to their station, settle with them right there. No matter how we make it look, they are friendlier than those pple they call VIO. Just know ur way,

that's how one halla me one night in abuja last week, that I used speed to come to police check point, I replied I didn't know there was a check point there. He said didn't I see it as I was speeding from the express, I said no. I wasn't speeding from the express, was coming out this junction (pointing it to him). He then said, oga do me weekend. And I gave him N200 and left.

Op, I blame you for falling weak in the face of police, people whose salaries are paid with the tax you pay.
I have had an encounter with policemen in that national stadium roundabout. Also had another with fashola police and their black maria at ojota. And in both cases, I was going to the airport to fly back to abuja. Both times, i dug it out with them and still met my flight. And didnt bribe them a kobo. I'm ready to miss the flight and go to court rather than paying police a kobo.
Is it with all this fear fear that the revolution will occur?
