Wahala

anyway both na Omoluabi and Muslim Yorubas.

Thought they love themselves.

How is Pantanmi an Omoluabi? Get your fact.

You were wrong to have ignored her call. All you need to do is to get her print her own statement for you to take to your bank and let her take yours to her bank.

A talk to her friend or her close family she respects will do the magic if you are meant to be together.

jrusky:
You are right but did you realised it seems Buhari network started working effectively since that Abbawhatever died of Corona

Hmnnn. Please let's allow Abba the son of Kyari rest in peace. People at the corridors of power must have learnt some lessons of the game of power from his death.

ikabasa1:
you need to be isolated..what we need is Local government autonomy.

As a student of Political Science, you are expected to know how crucial separation of power is in a presidential democracy. The three Arms cannot be kept in water tight compartment but anything that will support true independence of the different arms especially the legislature and judiciary from executive will make democracy more vibrant.
Maybe I should also let you know our LG is a product of our imperfect Presidential democracy. The real semblance of Federating Units is the States.

Remember, you can only isolate victims of Covid-19. I hope you are obeying the stay safe rules?

I am not one of your fans, but I must confess, this is a good development Mr. President. Thank you.

I doubt she will agree to do this... Moreover,those act are not been done at the head office... It is the branch managers that are perpetrating these evils

She can install at branches and have it linked to her phone to check at random intervals.
If she doesn't agree then an anonymous message from unknown number can help her or a printed letter using Microsoft word to inform can be dropped on her desk addressed to her without a name. Make sure the tone of your English is not betrayed in your letter.

Just tell madam to install CCTV camera or spy Camera in all the strategic locations of the company so that she can monitor situation from her office.

Let her know the benefits isore than the cost, that it will help the security to do their work effectively and she should make the process of procurement and installation very discreet. She should also not disclose that you advise her about that decision.

If you can afford it, make a separate accommodation arrangement for him far away from your residence. That should be done after you know how long he want to stay. Be polite to him and let him know you need some privacy for now and you won't like to make him uncomfortable while trying to organise yourself.

He's a man. Why will men want to satisfy their lists with him?

Oh, I don't know. Even then, it is still safer to be home with mummy and avoid peer pressure that is capable of luring him into bad association. Other part of my suggestion are still applicable.

Here is my own suggestion to you. Don't move out yet, because if you do, you will be exposing yourself to what I call avoidable preying eyes of men that have no good intentions but to satisfy their lusts. Except you know you are capable of resisting lustful advances without compromise.

Secondly, silently, go online to either aliepress, jumia or any online shop and buy a spy camera or fisheye bulb security camera for your house. With N0k you will not only stop this nonsense but silence your mother on such accusations. I am making this suggestion because it is cheaper than going out to feed yourself and pay rent with attendant risks of singles.
Remember, this woman is your mother and you won't want to end relationships with her on a bad note, so, use wisdom. Don't tell them how you got the video of the thief, just show the video to your mother on your phone and let her direct her anger to the right place why you live in peace.

Get a spy camera into your your rooms with good audio. In no time you will start hearing or reading your family book of revelation . You can also use a spy pen, put on the audio why he's making a call and leave the place to get busy somewhere in the kitchen, after the call go take you pen in stocked in your note book to continue your jotting. when he is not around, lock up your room, copy the audio into your laptop and listen to the conversation with your ear piece. You can also use spy camera to achieve this , but don't break your family, use wisdom to bring him back to his sense and guide your secret carefully so that you can confirm if he has changed or not.

so the best OP can do under that situation is to record them fighting instead of making peace. Are you a true friend of the family?

mrvitalis:
If u see fact as hate then you have a problem ....if igbos hate we won't go to placed and build ...we would simply take our profit and go home

No tribe has built around Nigeria more than the igbos ...but we would state the truth no matter what

Sorry I can't help you with further explanation.

mrvitalis:
Bros they can't stop selling land to us because we buy land far more expensive ....what I stated was nothing but pure facts

You better repent and stop this your fighting spirit, bitterness will not take you anywhere in life. Find room in your heart for friendship and joy, it will help you live longer.

Your mindset is your problem, nobody and I repeat, nobody hate the igbos, but everyone want to be respected.
If Enugun were at anytime a Fed Capital like Lagos was, and it experienced development from all part of Nigeria, will that ever change the fact that Enugun belongs to Igbo? Stop distributing hate virus, it is more deadly than Corona Virus o.

Evercurious:
They need the 'Igbo's ' money.. They can't just stop selling their lands cos they sell expensive to the igbos

Nnayin, you mean it is only the money they want? No, they also want your companionship, money is not everything, even the friendship and your beautiful girls for wife. Don't quote on the last part. Otherwise, I will charge to court.

mrvitalis:
Lagos was built by Nigeria ...all major project was carried out by the federal government 3rd mainland bridge to the airport to the seaport

Yoruba claiming Lagos is like north claiming Abuja

If yorubas was hospitable as they want us to believe ...none yorubas would full ibadan ,abiokuta and other yoruba cities but that's not the case


Lagos is Nigerian project and that's a fact

What an argument. In elementary geography there is what is called the pull and push factor for population? The pull factors such as economic attractiveness, peace, infrastructure are not as much in the other Yoruba lands as Lagos, nevertheless you go to nearby Ogun state which is not Federal project as alleged by you and tell me if there are no considerable Igbo population as you claim.
Now, imagine if they stop selling land to your people because of such comment as yours, you will be the first to run outside shout marginalisation. Let us put behind us all these unprofitable sentiments and move forward.

maestroferddi:
You are trying to deflect from the matter under consideration.

Is it not embarrassing for you to state that NCNC was a Yoruba party?

Herbert Macaulay (part Nigerian, part Sierra Leonean) was older than Zik by almostn 40 years yet at the inception of NCNC both he and Zik were pioneer Chairman and Secretary respectively.

Macaulay died an old man. He had ll the time in the world to anoint a Yoruba successor if that was the ideology on which the national liberation party called NCNC was underpinned.

But he did not because he and the rest of Nigeria nay Africa saw in Zik a more than qualified successor.

Zik earned his reckoning having at the fore front of the African liberation struggle...

It was Nigeria's finest hour because if Awolowo had reined in his primordial predilections, the synergy between the East and West would have launched Nigeria to true greatness.

Awolowo bungled what would have been epochal for the black race...

When Macau lay died at the age of 81, nobody had any complaints of bei g dominated. It was objective leadership based on vision, but after his death, the same could not be said of Zik's leadership and that was the genesis of tribalism. Do you understand?

It was his failure to address this conflict of interest that metamorphosis into the Western Nigeria election. Zik iwas a great man by all standards I wish to reiterate, but he certainly had his failure as a man just like also had hsi Awolowo. We must however put issues straight and lay blame where it should be. His leadership of NCNC was never contested but his style was.

If we fail to learn from this issue, I repeat, the Fulanis will continue to dominate all of us until God puts an end to it. The Fulanis understands this history and conflicts more than any tribes in Nigeria and has been using it to their own advantage. The new style now is Yoruba and Igbo struggling to be leading partner of Fulanis.

If as the successor of Macaulay, he had listened to the wishes of some of his members for fear representation, his leadership of Nigeria would have been established till date.

I didn't say NCNC is a Yoruba party, don't twist my words to satisfy your bad intentions. Check the history of Herbert Macaulay very well, he was born to Nigerian parents in Sierra Leone and purely a Yorubaman. Now those are not the issue, wrong allegation is injurious.

maestroferddi:
Go an re-read the rubbish you wrote up there...

Zik was Macaulay deputy in NCNC and when Macaulay died the Yorubas asked Zik to head to Eastern Region to make way for a son of the soil to lead the Western Region....

The salient question would be whether this piece of crappy logic you are adducing had any precedence in part of the world that a deputy cannot succeed the substantive leader if the latter dies...

Let us move on... Awolowo is the author of tribalism in Nigerian politics. Pure and simple.

Again, you can respond to issues with displaying immaturity. I will appreciate superior arguments than insult.
For the record, Zik was never stopped from succeeding Macaulay as NCNC. As you are aware many Yoruba remain with Zik till death and do you know why? Difference in opinion.
The fact that Zik will be Premier in the East does not take away from him the leadership of NCNC.They are two different offices.
Good luck and this will be my last response on this matter.

[quote author=maestroferddi post=89244783]Stop talking like a stark illiterate.

On what capacity would ZIk have appointed an Igboman to be the premier of Eastern Region? Was he the Governor-General?

Does it occur to you that this event took place more than 8 years before the attainment of Nigerian independence?

Do a little study on Prof Eyo Ita and free yourself from asinine ignorance....


Stop spreading deliberate falsehood...[/quote

I expect you to be wise enough to choose your words carefully.when responding to issues, it is this type of immaturity that bring hostile response, I chose to disregard that aspect of your indiscretion.

Now to the issue, I don't the level of your education and if you were ever thought Constitutional Development of Nigeria starting from 19914-1960.

A strong platform that influenced political decisions and appointment in those days are the Nationalist Movement and the traditional council. Within the movements especially NCNC, there was politics.

Now each writer has his political bias and can choose to favour an actor to the detriment of others. Lagos is Yoruba land and NCNC started there. Now if it was started by a Yorubaman, have you wondered while Igbo man will suddenly become Nos 2 & 3 in the ranking.

This issue will remain with us and continue to affect our polity.

shekauvsbuhari:
From ur write-up, you just proved Unongo right. Awolowo drew other Yorubas to play the tribal card. Before then, it was nigeria but Awolowo instigated yorubas to start playing by tribe. You just proved Unongo right.

When flies bites a dog nobody sees it but when the dog decides to bite flies it becomes the talk of the people.

You are free to continue to deceive yourself but people who knows will not allow you to deceive them. If you do not agree with the fact that within NCNC there was a need to address discrimination, at least you know that we still have discrimination with us today. If you like blame Awolowo for it, it won't change the reality.

dignity33:
You aren't smart that you claimed first you said harbart was the leader and after his death Zik was the next and every one supported him by that time No Nigeria know what is tribal politics all what they see is merit that is why they supported Zik to rule them in western region . Now the question is who ask them to see Zik as igbo not Nigeria? that is where the tribal politics emanated and I'm sure you know the answer. Awolowo. That is why Awolowo was accused of bringing tribal politics in Nigeria which is obvious because if you travel to many countries that have different tribes they don't play politics of tribe like Nigeria do, once you are a citizen of that country you are allowed to contest election in any state or provinces. e.g is South Africa, Switzerland etc

I can't heal you from your self inflicted ignorance. It is not in my power, you can choose to believe whatever you want.

The answer to your question is simple, who told you not to see GMB as national leader instead of a Fulani man you regard him. Let me tell you one fact, it better to be guided by truth and objectivity.

If Zik by his leadership posture in NCNC decided to be a true Nigerian, there would have been no need for political crisis. If you don't understand, take a look at the way politics is being played in Nigeria today. If Okpara was not chosen by Zik, what you mean to say is that Zik will be Premier in the West and Okpara in the East because they are most senior in NCNC? What a wisdom? The people in the west are expected to be watching Igbos taking over all key appointments and be relegated? You see, when we learn to be sensitive to the feelings of others, our political crisis will be minimal. Do you realise why the PH people decided not to support Biafra because of similar insensitivity to their existence? No doubt the Yoruba has their own imperfections but as an person, I think they are more tolerant that Fulani or Igbos.

If we want Nigeria to work for all of us, then we must be ready to make it work. We must be insensitive to any tribe including the Igbos that suffered during the civil war.

leokid866:
They have been twisting history for a long time it's not today....

That is the reason we must continue to tell them the truth each time anyone come up with this type of lie. You said Yoruba are betrayal and I asked who betrayed first if there was any betrayal at all by Yoruba?

Zik succeeded Herbert Maculay suddenly think he must emerge the Premier of Western Region and appoint another Igbo man as Premier of Eastern Region. Will Igbos accept such treatment? To have Herbert Maculay as Premier of Eastern Region and then appoint Awolowo as Premier of Western Region? Will Igbos that will not even agree to sell lands to Yoruba in the 21st century ever accept such political denigration?

Much as I love my Igbo friends we must not shy from telling them the truth and let them know all these Internet war have to stop before it snowball into another unfortunate incident.
Zik should know that the Yorubas are larger in landmass and population yet the allowed you to lead them as a Nationalist under a movement started by their late son, now you using the same platform against them to subjugate them politically.
What you won't accept don't offer it to people.

This man even though is from middle belt has never hidden his hatred for Yorubas, whatever his reasons are he should please allow Nigerians to live in peace with his half baked history.

NCNC was the Nationalist Movement under Herbert Maculay a Yoruba man and Zik was his deputy. Suddenly. Maculay died and Zik emerged as the leader of NCNC the main anti colonialism movement. The Yorubas of course gave Zike 100% support as they still remain the most accommodating tribes in Nigeria to Igbos and other Nigerian till date. History is there for you to verify. Now before the elections there were political manoeuvring and some Yorubas feel that they should be compensated for the death of their son in the leadership ranking that, Zik as national leader should be Premier of Eastern region and appoint a Yoruba man to lead Western Region. This won't take away from him his national leadership of NCNC. Unfortunately, he didn't listen and that gave rise to suspicion of been dominated.
Remember, Zik wanted to be Premier in West and appoint another Igbo man as Premier in the East and before this election, there has been signals of domineering tendencies in various institutions including University of Ibadan and some Yorubas concluded that if they did not correct this error early their children will not forgive them and that is what lead them to realign after massively voting for NCNC a Nationalist Movement that was evolving to a political party then.

To call Yorubas tribalists is the height of mischief. If you have a leader that is insensitive to the various components of his constituency can you call that a leader, if you protect the interest of your own tribe at the expense of other tribes that are larger than your tribe in population and landmass can you be regarded as a leader. Indeed, it was Zik that started tribalism and when he pushed it to a point that it backed fire, he started calling Yorubas name.
Why did Paul Unogo and his other Middle Belt leaders not choose to remain under the Fulanis without a voice in political leadership, why are my Middle Belt people still trying to maintain a distinct Geo-political Identity? That is what Awolowo and Co saw and choose to take up their own destiny. Did it favour the SW? The answer is obvious. Yes, there were reactionary groups in Yorubaland that choose to die with Zik, the likes of Adeniran Ogunsanya, etc Unogo Paul won't see such people but choose to dance in the market at Old age because of hatred. Check out his consistent opposition to Yoruba leaders and you will know, the type of elder he is.

For the youths that may not know much of our history, recent developments in our history will show you that the Yorubas will never ask too much but will always insist on what is due to them. When through political manipulation, Abiola died as president elect, some tribes expected them to declare war, but Yorubas simply negotiated to have their son replaced with another Yoruba as president. They never wanted Obasanjo but when the other tribes insisted through the military, the Yorubas for the sake of peace allowed it. Now if Zik had listened to his political constituency then, what Paul Unogo is talking about would not have happened. There are many other political manipulations by Zik that proved he wasn't an infallible leader, we remember what happened during the coup and how he escaped being killed through informants of Igbo origin in the military while the other political leaders in SW and North were killed in a coup lead by Igbos. Did he know about the coup?
Finally, the Yorubas choice of Awolowo as the Premier of Western Region was it beneficial to the Yoruba race or not? I will leave reader to answer this question as take away and ignore this man.

Ganduje your lockdown was not effective and you know it. You took the alarm for granted unlike El-Rufai who was proactive.

You know there is high level of indiscipline in Kano and you did not seek for help to enforce strict lockdown instead you wanted it relaxed for whatever religious reasons or political correctness. I think you should face the consequences of you inactions and stop making noise.

This type of pastor scaling fence is dangerous to Christianity. How can someone that is supposed to be a child of God be jumping fence like criminals? At least the church members now know the type of person their pastor is and that he's not only capable of jumping fence but will readily abandon and deny them in times of need.

The Amodu Sheriff has always been on the wrong side of good things at least in the news.

It is either he is associated with the formation of the deadly Boko Haram, destruction of PDP as strong party and now spread of dangerous Covid-19? If the FGN does not find something to do about his matter, the next problem he will create maybe too difficult for them to manage. Sheriff the distributor of death.

This Zamfara Gov, must be in the same category with Kogi Gov. What a problem child kind of Government? You careless allowed your citizens to flout the restrictions of movement law of another state and shamelessly attack the state for threatening to repatriate them? Has Kano not repatriated Almajeris to Kaduna, Katsina and Jigawa and vi's visa?

The arrogance of your state Government in Zamfara is stinking. A combination of ignorance, pride and stupidity. You want to continue to cause problems for other states?

That Muric guy can't be a true Yoruba man. Check it out an average Yoruba Muslim is not as critical as this guy. It time the Ife people investigate his lineage.

How on earth will he bring religious bigotry to such a sensitive matter of this nature? Is he trying to allege that the dead are victims of religious attack. Why is he always looking for a way to score cheap religious point without thinking? Is he really capable of critical thinking that should be a quality of a Prof.

I am seriously doubting his Yoruba ancestry, perhaps it is time for Ife people to investigate his lineage, an average Yoruba Muslims does not subscribe to line line of reasoning. He is either not a thorough breed Yoruba or he is on the payroll of the Fulanis to distabilize the SW using religion a traitor like one other man that relocated to Ilorin many years ago.

Julietsim:
My husband and I have been married for almost 2 years now. He is a very good man . He is not a cheating type. The only thing is he likes sex so much that he always wants to have it everyday. I am tired. This lockdown has even increase the issue.

Please how can one cope? Is there any married lady that has experienced this. How did you handle it?

Did you not sign the contract to give him sex, why are you women like this? Once a day is too much just within two years of marriage? Don't you know that the law of marginal utility will set in with time and demand will reduce. Now sometime, I don't ask for sex from my wife in two weeks, but at the beginning of our marriage it was war. Do you know that despite not asking her every week, whenever I want sex it is still story and I keep wondering what exactly you people want?
Now you are complaining and some girls out there are wishing they have what you have. If you are careless and the guy go to taste food outside, you have yourself to blame.
Listen at age below 40men'sexual appetite are high that time women sexual drive is low. However, after age 40 when men sexual drive is diminishing, that is when women sexual drive start to increase, that explains why you see some women in their forties pursuing boys of twenties. Be guided, hold your home.

Osho strikes back..........


Is this the appropriate period, for such political grandstanding?

Our politicians braincells are filled up with expired/rotten cooked beans......

You mean to say Oshiolmole is the person that directed Obaseki's Chief of Staff to resign? What a conclusion?
