You make it sound as if na only northern farmers de grow rice. U na no de grow rice for your state or is border closure against rice only?

If not for rice, why was it closed during harvest ?

Those in the north are enjoying the uninterrupted nepotism displayed by buhari.

From taking control of all security agencies to judiciary, customs, anticorruption etc. Shutting down the border for northern rice farmers to make more profits.

They know the south is not happy, but its benefiting the north. Towards the end of Buhari's tenure it will be like they it was all a dream. They cant stand a southern president display such nepotism against the north. So they will first need another northern president that will mend the relationship with the south. To ensure the south does not retaliate once they get power.

So 2023 is not for the south.

The OP, can u know what your father birthed apart from you?

I know u did not write it. Just asking .

I wonder if they can.

I am not sure we have had a more confused leadership than we do today.

They recommend cashless society, then put charges on use of POS.

The customs have failed in their responsibility to stop smuggling. Therefore we shut our borders because of rice.

Now the same government that said those herdsmen killing Nigerians are from other African countries, now want to open the doors for influx of terrorists. The customs and immigration have failed to check the borders, imagines an open invitation for all.

Opening doors for the terrorists that will be used in 2023 to familiarize themselves with the country.

Blackman never thinks beyond the stomach.

For someone who was knocked out previously, I expect joshua to beat him up, instead of running away from attack.

madone:
Go fight ur own fight oo don't stay there typing nonsense

And you are reading and responding to nonsense.

I wish joshua wins tonight. However it's going to be very difficult due to these points.

1) his opponent have beaten him before, giving him more confidence.

2) his opponent knows his weak point.

3) while his opponent was faster and more flexible, Joshua had heavier punches with less flexibility.

4) His opponent has added more weight to his speed. His punches will have more damaging effects.

Well, let's wish him luck.

zoedicus:
and how does weight add to punching power.

Why is there heavy and light weight in boxing?

Minjim:
Body fat is not good in physical sport.
He won't be able to move around much.
And he's going to tire out easily.
Aj lost some weight for a reason

The weight is for the heavy punch. To knock joshua out faster.

Watching everything he believes in being destroyed before his eyes. What then does he stand for?

praz001:
The only reason why Nigeria shall be great again is that God Almighty will intervene and wipe of the entire evil oppressors....


Their sees will never have a say again in this country......


Then a new generation will crop up.............


Our generation will fulfil this...

Be waiting for God to come down and do that.

Don't drag igbos into your biafran madness . Call on Israel to come and defend you.

How come the lawyer called on other countries but not Israel? I thought kanu said Biafrans are from israel?

LOng time no hear. Any news on Tompolo if Niger Delta?

Gandollaar:
OP, it seems the motive behind this thread is to drum up support for sowore.

Nigeria can never be great. I hear some people say Nigeria will be great again and I wonder when it was ever great.

The factors dividing Nigeria are such that can only get wider.

No nation can ever attain greatness with the current structure.

It's not about swore, but it's an example of a failed decaying nation. Weak compromised institutions and a citizens that care less about their country.

Smalldick123:
GOOD. Mine.
1. TRIBALISM: the masses dont vote the better candidate but their tribeman. That is one of the big reasons.
2. PARTISAN POLITICS: even though am a die hard PDP guy but truth be told, both APC and PDP has nothing to offer Nigeria. I think these two are the major reasons

They vote based on tribe because they don't believe in the country.

They vote tribe because there is so much power at the center.

Terrorists who kill Nigerians are set free because a region is in power at the center. While sowore will spend xmass in custody.

The vote for tribe because the institutions are compromised and influenced by the centre.

Some people will say I am wishing Nigeria bad luck, while some religious one will say it is a negative confession. Well developed countries did not develop by luck or positive confession.

Forget what your pastors tell you about Nigeria in the name of prophecy, those things are wishes and not from God.

Here are the 5 major reasons Nigeria will never be great.

1) the leaders of the count don't believe in the country. I don't have to start talking about how they buy property abroad, send their children to study abroad etc. We already know.

2) the citizens don't believe in the country. Things our leaders do and get away with it, would have set other countries on fire. We prefer foreign clothes, food etc to ours. Everyone is minding their business and act as if sowores rights are not being violated. People from other countries are even more concerned than Nigerians.

3) We borrow to consume while other nations borrow to develop. We borrow to feed the over bloated federal and state governments and have nothing left to invest. The entire nation is working to feed the government and it is not enough. More borrowing is needed to feed the government. As long as we continue to run this luxurious style of government, we are heading for the rocks.

4) So much power in the center. This is the reason there is so much nepotism and struggle to produce president from a particular region.

5) Weak institution. I think this is the most important thing. The judiciary, police, Tax, anti-coruption agencies are not independent. They are controlled by the center, that is why things don't work here. In developed countries they try as much as possible to ensure the government does not interfere or influence their operation.

If you overspeed you get a ticket even if you are the president and you pay the fine. Tax is static and every individual of organization has to pay according to their category irrespective of who they are. Everyone has the right to invite the police to resolve conflict and get justice from the court no matter their status. In this part of the country, the court and security agencies are used by the rich to intimidate the masses.

Someone can always call someone and taxes and fines are waved

So as long as these factors remain, no prophecy or seed sown in religious houses can make Nigeria great .

candidtalk:
Lawd !!!! You Igbos are insufferable !!! You don't launder money earned or obtained legitimately as you do not need to !!!! Money laundry is not about duping anyone or owing people as you simplistically claim. It is about much more such as stopping proceeds of crime, embezzlement, corruption, people trafficking et al entering legitimate money stream the world uses daily thus helping those menaces to grow bigger. If Igbos are not innately lawless then you would not be talking as if what Onyeama is accused of is no big deal.

A lot of legit people carry more cash than they declare at the airport.

Why didn't otedola just go to court and clear his name on subsidy? Why use bribe to blackmail lawman?

candidtalk:
You Igbos need to stop this your pathetic pity party. What does the opinion of the poster you responded to matter in all of this? He won't be the one prosecuting Onyeama to establish his guilt or innocence so why this obsession of you Igbos with facing your fellow Nigerians with vitriol? Face the US people and their DOJ .

Leave Nigerians alone and turn your back on Onyeama until he clears his name . That is what a people who are not morally bankrupt would do and this is what Yorubas showed with Sowore. You Igbos were consistent in taunting us over Sowore but most Yorubas, myself included, insisted Sowore should go and clear his name in court of the charges proffered against him as Yorubas are not raised to support their own blindly.

Upon your goading, Yorubas never made themselves a nuisance over Sowore as Igbos are doing now with Onyeama. Yorubas, in unison, simply told Sowore to face prosecution and vindicate his plea of innocence. Likewise the North are not carrying banner for Maina and raising conspiracy theories about his prosecution.

Shame that at times like this you Igbos will always be found wanting and morally deficient because of extreme bias towards your own and an unreasonable mentality of insisting the law should only apply to others and not you and yours. When they try to accost you people over wrongdoing it is suddenly a conspiracy, witch-hunt, envy prosecution, work of haters , Fulani revenge, South African vendetta, Yoruba bad belle and all excuses under the Sun that precludes the possibility your own kinsman may be guilty and nothing but a common criminal.

You are right, yorubas did not make themselves nuisance over sowore. But used all the resources at their disposal against goodluck Jonathan. Where is occupy Nigeria? Why is nobody matching in protest? Has fuel not increased, has Buhari not disobeyed court orders? Have herdsmen to killed? What happened to the yoruba voice under Buhari? The yorubas are silent over sowore because they are afraid of the tyrant they brought into power, hoping he will hand over to them.

Why the threat? Why not act?

Igbo:
Why do you have an issue with him clearing his name in court?

The issue is you sentencing him before the court does.

Igbo:
Hahahah nyamuri flat.head stop spewing all this trash!!! Let him just go to court and clear his name.. look at how ur all trying to justify his action

I am not justifying his action to the focus is on your reaction .

Weedsmoker:
Fact of the matter still remains that Allen oyeama is a criminal not until he goes to the US to clear himself.

I'll ignore you because of your username.
