It seems we’ll get to a stage where religion will be regulated. Too many dubious people are hiding under religion to deceive, confuse and dupe people.

This is no longer religion ke...bra and pants! Like you say they hide behind religion.
Maybe he wants to use it for charm so everytime he tell women in his church, under spell, to take of panties and bra they will not question the command.

Davebio:
U started very well but ended it wit jagoons.
Did d woman tell u she be APC member or even a politician??
Make she go APC rally make APC thugs kill her for her children

No be everything person see e go talk. Sometime act like you didnt see APC in comments and just move on. Yeye.

Johnnyessence:
same day governor seyi makinde commissioned 100 patrol vehicles for police. oyetola is a disaster in osun state. he doesn't understand what government entails. he's just a figure head governor.

Those pots and friers are made in Osun. Govt is supporting local production and industries. Thats all.

God bless Gov Oyetola!

May he live long and in wellness! ...when Baba Obasanjo passes, who are the eligible candidates to fill his political shoes? They need to be identified while Baba is still around.

Many have wondered what GEJ has been doing since leaving government, what his legacy would be and whether or not he is able to redeem his image from the prodigal Presidency he led. GEJ once called OBJ the godfather of godfathers, the boss of bosses! This is true! No past Nigerian leader has attained the notoriety that follows Obasanjo, whether in military, as a political figure or even as a private citizen. None of the heavy weights thrown in prison by Abacha came out alive but OBJ did....more than that, OBJ survived Abacha! When we look outside our shores, no African leader, from North Africa to South Africa, from West to East and the Central, commands as much credibility and trust with foreign governments as Baba OBJ. Can GEJ be our next political OBJ? If he has what it takes it was not demonstrated during his rule as President, but what happened in Bayelsa's 2019 Governorship election is an outcome that is potent with many interpretations. What is GEJ doing?

We Yoruba call it displacement in the political market. Let me describe it.

I have 5million ordinary shares of Yam Flour Inc (Amala) Cassava Mills Inc is competing with Yam to dominate market share for grains and mills, so it offers 50million ordinary shares to raise capital and expand production. I quickly buy 35million of the 50 and hold on to it for two years. Third year, I dumped all 35million and flooded the market. The supply will overwhelm demand, and so naturally price falls rapidly. 15million of those shares is out there somewhere in private hands. Panic hits the Cassava Mill shares and the 15million plus many more previously invested were further dumped by their owners to further plummet value and confidence in Cassava Mill. In this scenario my interest is the success of Yam Flour but I want to displace Cassava and make it fail so I can monopolize market and price in future. I first gave Cassava a short term market boost ahead of my market (Yam) equity....three years later I unleashed strategy and displaced Cassava from market domination.

In advanced countries government usually put in place a trade protection policy that caps how much of capital (real estate, gold, corporate stocks) foreigners can hold.

Could GEJ's action be taken as a pro-APC stance? Not so fast! I return to OBJ and his pandora bag of tricks. OBJ wanted to blanket SW with PDP. The first thing he did was to sleep in same bed with Governors in AD. He first gave them victory ahead of his own party PDP...and then came from behind to displace them and put in their place PDP Governors. Tinubu was the only survivor!

Displacement is nature's way of crowning new rulers and empires. Those who perfect the art of displacement rule the political market. GEJ has earned his first displacement in Bayelsa, and it is very meaningful as well as very strategic for the political shift in 2023. Could he anoint who will be PDPs next flag bearer...and score more displacements between now and 2023?

We shall see....a new Lion King is in the making!

PassingShot:
Let me educate you why it seems so:

1. Bayelsa state is a core SS state in the league of Rivers and Delta states. A state like other core SS states where APC had no foothold in as recently as 2018 - not until 2019 when we started seeing some presence of APC there.
3. Bayelsa state is the home state of the last president produced by PDP. The state and the region have been hostile to APC as a result of GEJ's/PDP's loss of the presidency.

3. That GEJ abandoned PDP in Bayelsa state and showed support (or being indifferent of the contest, at least) is an indication that he has moved on despite his loss and what his wife is going through with EFCC.

4. Winning Bayelsa state gives a lot of confidence and hope to APC for other states in the region and for 2023 general elections. Such victory will surely boost their performance in that state and in the SS region entirely.

5. Surely, if GEJ/PEJ could support APC which sent them packing from Aso Rock, it means the entire Niger Delta which is their primary constituency can move on and be less hostile to APC or even embrace the party more.

6. With what played out in Bayelsa, APC's headache of worrying about SE has been reduced greatly. It's now much more easier for APC to ignore SE and their emotional blackmail and focuse more on the SS with appointments and inclusiveness. That way, SE becomes less relevant in the scheme of things since APC will now have strong footings in NW, NE, NC, SW and SS. Surely, that's a huge competitive advantage over PDP which can only boast of strength in SE and SS (now diminished) with not-so huge following in other four regions.

There are more implications but these ones should educate you already.

PaChukwudi,
You cannot get this lesson anywhere, even if you paid for it in a seminar. Im sure you are bewildered by this brief tutorial here. It hits home, does it not?

Now, show me you are a true Nwafor, a proud Igbo warrior....send a couple of thousands to Passingshot for appreciation.

ezenwajosh:
Reminds me of what KANU told SOWORE in their interview in US

Nigeria is unsalvageable, Don't fight for nigeria nobody will remember you fight for your people in truth and honesty and you will be loved and remembered

How KANU sees ahead of everybody still surprise me...he called Jonathan clueless but warned not to vote buhari by all means necessary many ignored him

He said they have changed the man in aso rock Nigerians ignored him

Now compare this

How come the jew did not see python coming?

LegendHero:
Lol, seems we are the only people that understand the Igbos. Their ideology has not changed since 1958.

This is their Mantra in politics:
"In as much as a Yoruba man does not have it, then we are fine"

That is exactly why they have lived their life in competition and comparison with the Yorubas and the reason why they need a validation from the Yorubas to recognize their success before they can celebrate it. They are only successful when they benchmark it with the Yoruba success.

Their urge to antagonize Yoruba presidency far outweighs their determination to rule!

Bro, you must have either served in Iboland or lived somewhere in their midst. This is SPOT ON!
Each of the points you made up there can be broken down and sublisted into hundreds of samples and lessons witnessed over the span of short years we have been in close contact with them.

richie240:
When we tell them their politics of hatred will only isolate them they argue.
I said it that the 'bereaved' (SS) has since moved on while the 'sympathizer' is still shedding tears.

They'll give you a thousand Ochaja reasons why tinubu/sw shouldn't aspire for the 'ticket'.
They'll give you 500 Oppi-weka reasons why atiku should have 'it', but ask them, "give us JUST ONE PERSON from SE who deserves it"
Their response:

Alimani:
President Buhari has presented Integrity awards to two public servants, Bashir Abubakar and Mrs Josephine Ugwu of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, for exhibiting Integrity in the performance of their official duties.

Buhari presented the awards to the recipients at the opening of the two-day National Summit on Diminishing Corruption in Public Sector held at the State House Banquet hall, Abuja.

The event is being organized by the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation in collaboration with Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission (ICPC).

The Assistant Comptroller-General of Customs, Bashir Abubakar rejected 412,000 dollars (N150 million) bribe offered to him by drug traffickers to import 40 containers laden with Tramadol, a controlled and highly addictive drug.

Ugwu, a former cleaner at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos had on different occasions returned millions of naira found in the course of her duty, including the sum of N12 million dollars forgotten in the toilet by an airport user.

Speaking at the event, Buhari stressed the need for Nigerians to uphold the traditionally cherished values of honesty and integrity.

‘‘Let me again note with concern the need to uphold the values of loyalty, honesty, trust, and integrity that were once cherished in our public service. Ethics and integrity are the foundation of an enduring society.

‘‘Nigerian culture does not tolerate dishonesty. Therefore, we must reclaim our traditional values of honesty, integrity and hard work. In spite of the few bad eggs, I am delighted that many Nigerians still hold on to our traditionally cherished values of honesty and integrity,” he said.

Buhari called on the National Assembly to fast-track the passage of the Special Crimes Court Bill. He also urged the judiciary to embrace and support the creation of the Special Crimes Court.

He said: ‘‘the fight against corruption is of course not only for government and anti-corruption agencies alone. All arms and tiers of government must develop and implement the anti-corruption measures. I invite the legislative and judicial arms of government to embrace and support the creation of Special Crimes Court that Nigerians have been agitating for to handle corruption cases.’’

President Buhari noted that the passage of the Bill was a ‘‘specific priority’’ of this administration’s Economic Recovery & Growth Plan 2017-2020. The President also used the occasion, which marked the launch of the Constituency Projects Transparency Group (CPTG) Report Phase One, to reiterate his appeal to all well-meaning Nigerians to join in the fight against corruption.

‘‘The war against corruption cannot be won without prevention, enforcement, public education and enlightenment. I encourage the ICPC and other law enforcement agencies to intensify their efforts in public education, enlightenment and engagement with citizens.

‘‘I also urge our development partners, civil society organizations, and the media to continue to support our efforts to strengthen ethical values and integrity in Nigeria,’’ he said.

This lady "repeatedly" returned forgotten millions.

Buhari should open the gate for her to claim her own wealth. Give her a hefty reward, make her brand ambassador for anti-corruption crusade and bring her along to every APC national rally as a face of honesty and trust.

Mrcomedimatic:
The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC on Monday declared Yahaya Bello as the winner of the Governorship election while the result of the Kogi West Senatorial election remains unknown.

However, Dino Melaye who contested against Adeyemi Smart of the All Progressive Congress APC in a supplementary election for the Senatorial Slot is not happy with the turn out of event.

Melaye in a statement on Tuesday promised he would report Bello, Adeyemi and others to the International community and then head to the International Court of Justice in Hague, the Netherlands.

He said:.

You see....Melaye missed his call in life. Not too late though because he still have a lot of creativity in him to be a stage comedian.

Tired of One Nigeria ke?

We are about to grab hold of this nation and make things right. Get ready and vote Yoruba 2023.

It will be One Nigeria with each region self-sustainable in it........including SE my brother!

Yoruba will give you something even more sustainable than Biafra....a self driven future, not one commandered by a selfish man at center.

T9ksy:
Brilliant propositions!!!
I truly and sincerely support this motion.


You forgot to add:

If an ibo man schemes to be placed in charge of yoruba affairs but fails...............it's ' because they hate ibos.

Its fair my brother! If I have 10 children and send 1 to you to live. Im sure you are not going to ask me for any aid. If I send 2 you probably still not going to bother.

When im sending 4, 5.....if I have shame i should not wait for you to ask...i should begin sending support for my responsibilities in your care.

You are obligated to demand it if I failed to show propriety and forward an aid to support my 5 children under your care.

SE is almost empty! We witnessed the demography during election. They have the least registered voters as well. Meanwhile Yorubaland is bursting with Ibo population and making quality of life difficult for the indigenes.

So if leaders in SE have no shame to intervene, our generation will not have shame to force their hand through statutory taxation and get that money due to us to maintain the Ibos on our lands.

We are willing to show them a way to recover their region and revamp it and make it habitable so their fleeing children will stay home. If they care to listen.... They will either get the message, or they will make us rich in their obstinacy.

Yujin:
Look the thing talking about sympathy? Did I ever sounded like we're seeking such from glaring haters like you? I'm happy me and you are found in this generation. We shall see who will have the last laugh. Chai! Talking about deporting people from Lagos to Onitsha; why didn't your people continue with the deportation or are you scared? I know your type- you're so happy that Ndigbo are oppressed in this present Nigeria. It is all that matters to you. Well, it shall not last for ever as you can see our population and wealth is increasing daily. What can you do to stop? NOTHING! Your hatred will kill you soon. I see all the threads you open. They're virtually all aim at Igbos. We're too big for you and your likes. Look elsewhere loser.

I have always looked out for avenues through which Igbo can reinvent itself. Even my calling for a revision of the topic is also an advocacy along that line.

Imagine if everytime Yoruba relate on national issues we reduce it to a reference on Oduduwa Republic. Thats just not a way to progress.

Biafra has its place in your conscience and your history and aspirations but dont bug your future in the national contract to the cause of Biafra.....otherwise you isolate yourself and also project risks where everyone view you as a burden. ....but you want to be viewed as an asset.

Come to the table with values the nation can relate with. Biafra is defunct and the nation has no use for it. Keep it with you in SE....dont inject it into border closure, a national arena. Beside, does Biafra have international border? Change the topic.

HIGHESTPOPORI:
APC is a regional party because they don't deserve to be in SE,nobody will give them on a platter of gold. They should show us others states like kogi,osun with APC are doing fine

Think about your grievances on marginalization and strategize to change your portion in the power equity. APC can help you....partner with us!.

hammerVJ:
NOT SO, THE STRONG HOLD OF PDP REMAINS THE SS/SE.

APGA HAS ONE STATE IN SE AND APC HAS TWO STATES IN SS.

NOW, AFTER BUHARI TENURE TWO AND HALF YEARS TIME COUNT FROM 2020, I GUARANTEE U, APC CANNOT HOLD THOSE TWO SS STATES.

WE SAW WAT HAPPENED IN IMO.

THIS IS A TEMPORARY SET BACK, AHEAD OF 2023. WE CAN TOLERATE THAT.

Your grievances of marginalization is not based on PDP stronghold...but on power equity.

Focus on getting SE into corridors of equity. Do what others do and diversify your region with the two national parties.

I have always preached that Ibo has traditional challenge when it comes to diversity. Make diversity your strength, not your challenge.

This is third time this Pastor is getting in trouble over past 24months. Can his license to preach and practice not be revoked....or do the people need a Pastor so bad that even a idol worshipper is fine to evangelize to them?

Yujin:
Lol. You think we're scared of riffraffs like you? We're just gradually building up to square it with devils like you. Your main backbone is about brexit and breakit. Then, we will know your true capability. My brothers will remain wherever they see fit and there's nothing scallywags like you will do. If you have any influence, why don't you flout the international treaties and do your worst now? You must think you're dealing with some kind of inconsequentials. You amuse me. We are protesting and will continue to do so. Do your worse.
Lol @ Nigeria being gracious. Any reasonable person will see that you're evil personified for saying this. Hate Igbos as much as you want, but we will outlive you and your likes. Awolowo was exactly like you and he died unfulfilled despite all his cunning lifestyle. May you choke on your hatred.

If a bunch of homeless are sent from Lagos to Onitsha....they hate Igbo!

If a disrespecting Eze is flogged for flouting palace protocols and after correction he refused to obey....they hate Igbo!

If an airline passenger from Lagos to Abuja insist the Cabin Crew PA safety instructions must be read to him in Igbo and he is ignored......its because they hate Igbo!

If your son wants to run for office under APC and you ridicule and reject him but the office is given to someone else, not your son....APC hate Igbo!

If you raise a ragtag Army and rebel against authority and call for decapitation of the President's head to be brought to Enugu but President replied with his python......they hate Igbo!

If you say Biafra or death and Kaduna Declaration told you to vacate to your zone and create Biafra....they hate Igbo!

Watch yasef, before you wreck yasef!!!

You want sympathy, but the currwnt generation have no empathy for you.
You will come to the line and submit to same rules everyone else is bound by. No special allowances because you lost 100million people. Your loss is self inflicted. Dust yourself up and treat your wounds....and make haste to report to the line and bear your own weight to sustain the nation.

When our generation get in rulerahip, for every 1000 Ibos that port to Yorubaland there will be a tax charged back to your home states in SE. Yorubaland is not dump ground for Ibo or Hausa. If your governments are reckless with your welfare we will equally be reckless with taxation on your headcount.

Ttipsy:
OP is APC now a criteria for unity
smh

It is a criteria for political expediency in SE.

I have proven with that list that both APC and PDP are national parties. There is no region PDP is not present. Except SE, APC is everywhere as well.

Into the forseeable future APC will continue to rule. SE must not be left behind in the corridors of power. The yoke of the popular SS/SE brand is broken by the latest addition of APC state in SS.

SE is now the odd-man of South, and in fact the whole nation.

And if you were the president of Nigeria the first thing you will do is congratulate the the governor of kogi state after watching these videos.

Are you sure the President was shown the videos?

You all assume the President as well sees everything we see and hear. Not so.

OP,
Fela and his siblings all took their light complextion from their mother, Mrs Ransome Kuti.

Dr Beko was the lightest.

I cant help you research on elbow contrast but Fela was naturally light complexioned. I believe his habits with drinks and smoke may have even darkened him than he was naturally.

Let me know if your Prof accept your thesis on the subject.

Yujin:
See the criminal calling someone else a tout! Why waste my precious flavour on a stinking shithole? Lol. Your hatred will swallow you soon. Continue to deceive yourselves on this thread because discerning fellows can it for what it really is. Loser!

Shut up and park for side abeg! Nigeria was very gracious allowing you to continue to rampage around shouting Biafra and disturbing everyone. If the right thing had been done to begin with none of you will see Biafra as a right or privilege. This new generation has high intolerance for Biafra.......we are not the generation of 60s that was timid and needed international approval, we are not concerned about an international disapproval one bit. We will flout all the conventions of international treaties to see that Biafra remain defunct. This is not hatred, it is political reality.

If you must actualize Biafra there are things you must first do. Recall all your traders spread around Nigeria to return to Iboland. Recall all your officials serving in Nigerian Government to return home. Then conduct a referendum and negotiate your separation from Nigeria. As long your brothers remain in other regions earning their livelihood then stop endangering their lives.
