According to this video, the soldiers were passing and you people were throwing stones and bottles at them. You are now showing they shut someone. But couldn't show the dead body of 5people kanu claimed they killed. Which means nobody was killed. Why must you people tell lie to gain sympathy. If you had allowed them pass, would they have shot at all? Most of they were even dodging behind the shops around there and throwing stones.

NNAMDlKANU:
The person in this picture is Mr. Alex Ikwechegh Mascot, a native of Igbere in Bende LGA of Abia State.
He is from the same village with the former governor Orji Uzo kalu...despite the fact that he is from Igbere in Bende LGA, he was appointed a TC chairman of Aba North from 2007 to 2009...he is currently not the chairman of Aba North...the current chairman of Aba North (elected not appointed-TC) is Mr. Stanley Ogbonna, a native of Umuola in Aba North LGA...pls disregard this fake new from this fake media'...meanwhile, I understand he attended the event (burial) in Achina, Anambra State last Friday, where this trending picture was taken...Mr. Alex Ikwechegh Mascot didn't address himself as the chairman of Aba North at the event, so the fake man behind this fake news should repent before it's too late..

Next time, when reading, open your eyes wella and your mind, plus let your brain always active and not passive. Where in the news did the op said he's the current local govt chairman or introduced himself as the current one. Or you don't know difference between current and former again?

Olu20090:
kid's Glove Aside, I'll Be Very Harsh And Brutal On You Niger Delta People Today Because Some of You Don't Have Sense At All Especially The Elders. I'm prompted to write this because I just came back from an assignment in Yonagoa, Uyo and Eleme in Rivers State few days ago. The level of suffering and poverty I saw there brought tears to my eyes. Though most of you are waking up and supporting IPOB now, but I want to know...how in the heck were Hausa-Fulani and Yorubaas able to deceive you that Igbos were your enemies for over 50 yrs, while they siphon proceeds from the resources in your land to their regions; building Lagos and Abuja to modern cities? How in the heck did they deceive you so easily? I cannot understand this at all...cannot. Have Igbos ever invaded your land? No. Have you ever heard of Igbos entering your land to steal your oil despite Igbo states bothering all Niger Delta oil states? No. Have you ever heard of Igbos killing your people? No. THEN WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM? CAN'T YOU REASON? HOW CAN THESE PEOPLE DECEIVE YOU LIKE THESE WHILE THEY STEAL FROM YOU? It's one thing to tell you that Igbos are your enemy and Uyo, Warri, Asaba, Port Harcourt and Yonogoa are like Abuja and Lagos, then It would make perfect sense that Igbos are your enemy because your are benefiting like Abuja and Lagos, but in this instance, you are not benefiting anything at all...zero, nothing, then what is wrong with you people? Where is your IQ? I have never been so angry in my life. The European, French guy whom I'm on this assignment with cannot also understand this at all. What is the problem Niger Delta people?

[/s]Typical ipob strategy. Later, sons of you idiot will be asking quack question on why ipobs are not interfering in Yoruba agitation thread. But you can't do your thing without mentioning yorubas, when they come here now, you will start crying to high heaven. You are using tactics to exonerate yourself which is not working. When it is glaring how parasitic and wicked you are. You people can't allow others to live happily and do business in your land but others don't care about you in their own land. Allowing you doing your business without any rift. Shame on you people. Why do you even want to die on top these south south people. Just because of oil, na wa o. Forcing them day and night. I spit on you people. Tufiakwa

hammerFU:
Dont even mention us together. That is where u are getting it wrong.

We are not together and cannever, will never be together. I don't want anything to do with the east. And stop deceiving and forcing the south south on yourself. They are alone on their own. Stick to your eastern. We the westerners are on our own and we don't want anything to do with the east. I have never seen any south southerner shouting ss and se before. They are two different entity. The earlier you know, the better for you.

hammerFU:
South does not include Yorubas, they are part of the NorthWest muslims.

South is the SS/SE.

Wen u stop making obvious mistake, u stop asking silly questions.

Go and sleep. Is it your father that separated the south? I

• 1963 Constitution, The Ideal Grundnorm – Middle Belt Ethnic Nationalities
• Going Back To 1963 Constitution Not Tenable-Arewa Youths
• Yakasai Supports Return To 1963 Constitution

Northern elders and youths have cautioned the Yoruba, their South East and South South neighbours over their clamour for the country’s restructuring, as well as return to the 1963 constitution.

The two groups, which vehemently opposed the recent resolution of the Yoruba at a summit tagged, “Restructuring: The Yoruba Agenda 2017,” alleged that sustained agitation for restructuring would, in the final analysis, not augur well for the growth and development of the nation.

Secretary General, Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) Anthony Sani, told The Guardian, yesterday, that calls for restructuring by the coalition of Yoruba groups, and those from South East and South South, as well as the return to 1960 and 1963 constitution were “puzzling.”

Arewa youths’ position was made known by President of the Arewa Youths for Progress and Development (AYPD), Comrade Danjuma Sarki, who said though “the constitution we are currently operating was hurriedly put together by the military in order for them to hand over power to civilians,” there were better ways to improve on it.

Sani said the calls were “puzzling in the sense that these are people, who profess to be jaunty face of democratic values, and who are expected to know how democracy works. I would not be tired of saying that while there are national consensus on problems of a nation, there are no similar national consensus on solutions to these problems. Hence the significance of multi-party democracy, which allows each political party to present a distinct method of solution as contained in the party’s manifesto, which it used
to canvass for electoral mandate.”

Sani argued that, “for the Yoruba to now call for restructuring of the country on the basis of the 1963 constitution, gives an impression that they do not know how to make their desires possible in a multi-party democracy.”

He maintained that, however good and laudable restructuring of the country may be, it has to be decided by Nigerians through a democratic process; no few people can make that decision on behalf of Nigerians.

“I am not sure if their restructuring is the panacea for the national malaise we are in. I say this because Nigeria practiced the confederate arrangement as symbolised by regionalism and parliamentary systems of government during the First Republic. These were abolished and supplanted by a unitary system by General Aguyi Ironsi, who felt the centre under confederation was too weak to keep the nation under one roof.”

The ACF scribe added that, “the North and the West, under Chief Awolowo decided to create a federation of 12 states, which was a compromise between confederation and the unitary system,” noting that “since then, the states multiplied to 19, 30 and now 36, while we practice presidential system of government.”

Sani, who said some of those clamouring for the rejection of the 1999 constitution that is a clone of that of 1979 participated in its making, queried how the Federal Government under 1999 constitution, prevents state governments from living to their potential?

He said: “Lagos is developing today under the 1999 constitution, and nobody has stopped them from deploying what they collect from the federation account and internally generated revenue for development at their own pace. Is the Coalition of Yoruba groups claiming state governments misapply their own allocations because the sources are not from the states? This does not make sense. And can we honestly say the 52 per cent for the centre is truly too much in a country with many centres of centrifugal forces capable of putting it asunder? As far as I am concerned, there is nothing like true federalism that is universally accepted. That is why there are no two federal systems that are the same. Each federal system depends on the circumstance of its emergence…”

On how the nation can best be restructured under the present reality, the ACF Secretary General remarked: “as it is right now, the term restructuring means different things to different people. As a result, it is hard to take a position in a situation like that. And in order for Nigerians to make their informed judgment on restructuring, let political parties that wish to restructure the country include it in its manifestoes and canvass for electoral mandate needed for their implementation. I am sure when political parties campaign for their preferred model of restructuring the country, they would help to enlighten the public more about restructuring and make informed decisions during elections. That is how democracy works. It is not for the few people to meet and try to bulldoze the government into taking decisions in favour of far-reaching reforms of the polity. That course of action would not only be undemocratic, but also morally preposterous. This is more so because the current regime did not include specific type of restructuring in its manifesto.”

Sarki, the AYPD helmsman said: “To be realistic, going back to the 1963 constitution is not tenable,” adding that the country should rather review the 1963 to 1999 constitutions. If we look at issues that will promote the unity of Nigeria and propel growth in the country, that will bring everybody together and also promote the principle of inclusion.

“But, if you say that we should go back to 1963, that will be something that will be difficult to sustain. Just like the National Assembly is on the verge of amending the constitution, we can look at areas we think should be amended and make the necessary recommendations.

“The National Assembly should also take into consideration, positions that those, who elected them want. They should ensure that the interests of all regions are covered. Something that would bring about fairness, justice, equity and acceptability of the union called Nigeria. This is because most of the agitations for restructuring are borne out of the feelings of unfairness by people. We want to advise that those who are agitating for a return to the 1963 constitution should soft pedal so that we can move forward,” Sarki said.

For the Association of Middle Belt Ethnic Nationalities (ASMBEN), that the 1963 Republican Constitution was the ideal grundnorm for the country is not a novel development, what is novel, the group said is the urgency to return to it.

According to its interim chairman, Sule Kwasau, “Nigeria is hanging on a precipice and has never been divided on ethnic and religious lines as it is now. The 1999 constitution is fraught with so many anomalies, lies. The 1999 constitution is a military constitution and in making it, the powers that be were substantially from a section of the country and so the opinions of other sections of the country were never captured, as they had no representatives in the military leadership then.

“Why are some Nigerians nostalgic about the 1963 Republican Constitution as against the 1999 military constitution? It is simply because the 1999 constitution is a military constitution, but claims to be a federal constitution,” the interim leader said.

He continued: “The provisions contained therein cannot bring about even development. Again, the presidential system is very expensive, unlike the 1963 constitution, which recognises regions as federating units, with powers to do most of what is contained in the exclusive legislative list under the 1999 constitution.

The 1963 constitution also guarantees true federalism by providing for principles of derivation, which is 50 per cent for oil producing regions. It also encourages healthy competition among the diverse regions.”

Kwasau said his group, however, prefers the implementation of 2014 National Conference Report, “but if that is not possible, then a brand new constitution should be brought into existence.

“This is important because the constitutionally unrecognised six political zones of the federating units will short-change the Middle Belters because we were arbitrarily lumped with people we do not share the same culture with, eg, Southern Kaduna, Southern Kebbi, Southern Borno etc., who naturally belong to the Middle Belt. The other solution will be to create additional regions in the North to address our fears,” he said.

Meanwhile, contrary to the position of ACF, elder statesman, Tanko Yakasai, has thrown his weight behind the call for a return of the 1963 constitution.
In an exclusive interview with The Guardian, Yakasai, however, faulted the Ibadan meeting of the Yoruba, who called for the return of the same constitution on the premise that, the meeting failed to even understand that the 1963 constitution had only four regions not six as enunciated by the document that emanated from the meeting.

“I am speaking not on behalf of anybody, but on behalf of my humble self. As I am speaking with you now, I am 100 per cent in support of the return to the 1963 constitution. We had East, Mid-West, West and Northern regions only under that constitution. Not six regions as included in the document that was passed at Ibadan meeting,” challenged Yakasai.”

He added that none of those, who attended the meeting had any mandate from his people to go and take a position on those issues that were discussed at the meeting.

“Yes, as Nigerians we are all entitled to our opinions and expressions. But you cannot represent people without their legitimate mandate. Who then mandated those people to take such decisions? Mind you, you can only have people’s mandate through popular vote, by the electorate. So, who mandated those people to take such decisions? He asked rhetorically.

“Do you know that Yoruba traditional rulers and religious leaders were not part of the organisers of that meeting? So, in that scenario how can you now come and say this position is that of the Yoruba race? It doesn’t work like this,” he said.

The presence of thugs at the meeting, Yakasai said was an indicator that the document that was produced from the meeting was “completely faulty and pre-arranged.”

On the communiqué, the elder statesman said: “You cannot raise a communique from that meeting the way it was raised. Hundreds of people cannot, in any way, reach a resolution. Mind you, a resolution is a summation of the discussions that took place during a meeting.

“When a resolution is reached, it is then that you give the resolution to a communiqué committee to come up with a communiqué. But in case of the Ibadan meeting, there was nothing like that. And because of the presence of hired thugs, nobody could raise an eyebrow there,” Yakasai alleged.

The conclusion at the end of this summit is a preemptive declaration of hostilities, the outcome of whic will end in either a restructured nationality or the declaration of Oduduwa Republic.

The SW Govs in conjunction with their States House of Assemblies have started mapping a regional constitution and order of government for the Yoruba Commonwealth.

We are not waiting for permission...it will happen as a collaboration or we will force it, and by which time it would be too late to negotiate us out of Oduduwa Sovereingty.

I love this. All we want is our nation. Oodua a gbewa ooo

We have been hearing the iPob youth shouting how nnamdi kanu's family are very much in Nigeria, but as papa nnamdi said in his warning that kanu has not seen his boy since he was born because he hasn't been able to travel to London to see his boy. Which one should we now believe, is it that papa is telling lie as old as he is or the ipob youths are the one telling lies. Just asking oo . Before una crucify me, I don go watch EPL.

Youngadvocate:
To join other respected voices in the ongoing saga over the Federal government’s plan to re-arrest the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi, Nnamdi Kanu, his father, His Royal Highness, Isaac Okwu Kanu, has warned the federal government that such move would spell doom for Nigeria.

He said this while having a chat with the Sunnews

Pa Okwu Kanu who is the traditional ruler of Afara Ukwu Ibeku in Umuahia North Local Government area of Abia State, has already sent an SOS to the United Nations, alleging that the Federal Government planned to kill his son.

“Yes, of course, I’m a human being. When they talk of re-arresting him, it means they want to kill him, but God will not allow them because my son has done nothing wrong. I am using this opportunity to call on the United Nations to call the Nigerian government to order because they are planning to kill my son. My son did not do anything; government should go after those who have committed offence against Nigeria.
He said. “Why will they want to re-arrest him? Did he kill anybody? Did he flout the constitution? Some people are saying that my son, flouted the bail condition given him by a Federal High Court in Abuja, but the question remains, what type of bail condition was that? Is it possible that a person of my son’s standing in the society could stay without meeting up to 10 persons in a day or week?

“So, they said bail condition was against his fundamental human rights. But that notwithstanding, I know what we are passing through in my palace; trying to stop people from coming here, but there is a limit to which we can do that. Initially, the major gate to my palace had always been open, but since he came back, that gate has always been shut and we did that to stop people from gaining access to the compound. So, I don’t know what they are talking about.”

Asked what will happen if his son is rearrested, the monarch said, “Yes, re-arresting my son will definitely cause more problems for the country. Why would they re-arrest my son; to kill him? God and our people will not allow that to happen. They should realise that Nnamdi has a boy he has not set his eyes on since he was born and it was out of respect for the laws of the land that made him not to go to London to see that boy.”

Lalasticlala, Myn44

But papa, some pigs and idiots have been saying his family is in Nigeria, why are you saying his boy is in London again? Beside, your son wants to be a like Mandela, so why are you people afraid if arrest. Mandela I know never resisted arrest na. I am not understanding o.
