IAM from southern kaduna and i can confidently tell you that PDP is the Genesis of all d killing in southern kaduna. I can remember when atiku was director of customs he helped the fulanis to import arms which were used to kill my brothers. I have facts to tell you that atiku is a DEVIL. Therefore me and my family will vote for BUHARI

am in kaduna south. Stop the lies. Where in kaduna.south? are you liar.

CyynthiaKiss:
Yoruba Muslim speak for yourself. I am a Christian Yoruba, I will never ever vote for Buhari that is killing my Christian brothers in the North Central not even at a gun point !

For your information, if Buhari wins in 2019 (God forbids), he won't spare anybody.. SE, SS, SW even you Yoruba Muslims won't be spared because buhari 's boys don't see you as good Muslims that's why you are also targeted during riot/crisis in the north .
Don't think you are safe where you are because Benue people once thought they were safe when the crisis was only happening in Platue and Southern Kaduna until they started seeing the reality.

Receive sense..

Dont mind the bafoon. He doesnt even knw that BH and the fanatic herdmens are gradually wiping out other Islamic sects as we speak.
The worst of it all is if ever Buhari gets another term, God forbid. The country would be so messed up and divided and the rest of the country would gladly melt out their anger on whom so ever takes afyer Buhari. its only a foolish zombie that thinks the South south, South East, the Ncentral and North east would allow whom so ever that replaces him have a peaceful country? As it stands today, the rest of the South are watching with keen interest how it pans out.

I don't mean to brag but being a past student of one of the top institutes in west africa. (Ghana to be precise)I feel that for people who have real worth and are learned enough, language is never a measure of knowledge.
Even though the medium of instruction is English( which is necessary to survive in a globalised world ), people on campus talk in twi and various other local languages even with teaching assistants and professors. I have even overheard professors talking amongst themselves in local languages.

The truth is that people who consider English as a measure of knowledge are themselves not very knowledgeable and there opinion should not matter to any sound minded person.

Spot on! They are very ignorant and not well read to say the least. The oy difference is these bunch only took much time to study English language than others thats where it stops. Doesnt make them more intelligent.
infact facts are emerging that the reason we are falling behind in Education is not oy due to lack of funding but also due to the use of a foriegn language different from the students mother tongue.
There are enough scientific evidence to show countries that use their native languages to educate and evaluate their students tends to be more advanced than those who adopt foriegn languages. The secret reason why most Asian countries especially the Chinese are so good with maths is simply down to the structure of their number naming system. its easier for say a Hausa Boy to learn, add and substract or even to solve a math equation in his native language hausa than in English.
The likes of Wole Soyinka and Chinua Achebe didnt become famous by writing African stories in perfect English, they became famous simply by their unique abillity to tell an African story in English just the way an African would have told thesame story if he used his mothers tongue.

anonymous96:
Seeing a lot of Messages about how there are a lot of countries that don't speak English nd does it mean they are dumb..What kinda argument is that? The Op is clearly referring to Nigeria where English is the Official Language.. You are not born with a language, it is learnt. So Speaking English as a Nigerian in a Country where English is the Official Language simply means you Learnt it. If u are Nigerian nd you went to primary nd secondary school, you should be able to speak and write in English. It simply means you Learnt in school. And being Capable of learning is Intelligence

I knw someone who isnt good with english but got a schoolarship to study applied physics in the United States. He did so well in Maths in his SAT exams but poor in English yet they recommended him for a scholarship. Swerve.

Tellemall:
You have really tried by arguing with a pebble.

Language is a test of intelligence and that is why it is part of an IQ test.

Other areas are logic and mathematics. A person who only knows mathematics can be said to be dull. How can intelligence only be based on Mathematics as a yardstick for "brilliance"? Is a 4.85 CGPA in mechanical engineering "intelligence"? If the guy cannot speak English then he probably crammed or cheated, because if he can't speak English he probably cannot read or understand the language either.

The arguments about a lingua franca, coming from your opponents on the issue, are just absurd and highlight further why English/language is a measure of intelligence.

lol did you read what you just wrote? Senseless to say the least. Bros stop mistaken English language mastery to intelligence.
- Albert Einstein isnt fluent in English, but he os more intelligent than you so called English profs. English is just a mere language, like Russia, Germany and Japanese, all of which are by far more advanced than England. What do you mean by intelligence? Mtchew

Another senseless way of thinking. This is exactly why Nigeria is where it is now. How can ones intelligence be tied to thier fluency in English language? Hello its like saying because Chukwudi or Batubde is fluent in IBO or Yoruba they are more intelligent than those who are not that fluent. Stupid logic.
The only acceptable way one can use language to measure someones intellectual capacity is the nunber of Languages they can speak. So fluency in onlyvEnglish is not a yardstick, there are extremely dull people who are perfect with the English diction, But fluency in say 4-5 Languages is a yardstick. in other words a man that can speak perfect Queens English cannot be compared to another man that speaks Russian, French, Yoruba/Ibo/Hausa, and a little or no Englishs. This is a true reflection of ones intellectual capacity.
The irony is when one speak perfect English very low thinking people thinks thats a reflection of their I.Q.
i onced saw a show where an American comedian proved this. He made a very unintellegent sentence in perfect queens Englisb and the crowd didnt even get, and thought he was right, simple cos he said it in perfect English. He simply made a statement that Cocoa drink is made from Coconut, which was not only incorrect but stupid. But most of the people in the crowd thought he was right.
The APC and its officials like Fashola, Osibanjo knows this, this is why they spill so much falacies and lies in perfect diction to decieve their dull supporters.
EG.
1.“16 Years of PDP miss rule”. truth is Lagos is under Tinubu for over 19years, it simply means Tinubu has been in power for morethan 16 years, but is Lagos now a London or Dubai? infact a recent survey showed lagos is in the top 3 worst cities to live in.

Albert Einstein considered to by many to be one of the most intelligent people that have ever graced this earth is very poor in English language, infact he is know to have said speakibg English isva burden to him. Unless you can show ne anyone thats smarter than him cos he speaks better English, this your logic should be tussed to the trash can.

Zombies with very low mentality. the more they attack, the more popukar Atiku becones. Lol. even if Atiku will sell Nigeria, we will still vote for him.

Ify3:
With this statement from Atiku he is the brain behind the fulani herdsmen killings.

brown roofed ode. no matter how IBotic you change your moniker your tendercy to reel out stupidity will always expose you very low Buharideemic capacity to reason. If Atiku is responsible why hasnt Buhari arrested him? Buhari has the Army, Navy, Airforce, Police, DSS, Civil Defence, and Civilian JTF to effect Atikus arrest and hasnt done so. So in other words Buhari is responsible. Not that we expect a low thinking Zombie who is happy to supportva man that values cattkes over his life like you to think it through sha.

netpro:
The PDP told us Atiku is more Fulani than Buhari. Owns more cows that Presido. Speaks the language better and also has more herdsmen than Buhari.

I hope Atiku is not subtly threatening Nigerians with more killings when his failed campaign ends?

if he is thevone responsible, the guilt is still on Buhari. why Buhari has all the instruments of security under his control. Since you guys have prooof he is the one responsible, why hasnt Buhari arrested Atiku since? your logic is senseless. Not that we expect a zombie to have much reasoning capacity sha.

netpro:
This is how to run a campaign, not the hate baiting Agbaje or the corruption baiting Atiku.

2019, APC has it in the bag. God bless Nigeria!

senseless bunch. imthey are using govts funds to run their campaign. and you are here comparing him with Agbaje. Who is Sanwo Olu? tomorow now you willbcome back herr and cry that he is a failure when he starts diaregarding your drug dealing convicted rat of moral compas.

buharitill2023:
for now, it is buhari till 2023,
After that, you can now talk about tinubu from 2023-2031.
Liar obi is a drug dealer, he can be your vice president of ipob terrorist organization

Lol. People are not guilty of crimes simply because demented nonentities like you accuse them of it.
its a fact,

#Facts 1. Tinubu forged his Secondary School cert. Cos there are no record to show he went to Govt. College Ibadan. The old students association of Government College, Ibadan dissociated itself from Tinubu as there were no records to show that he attended the school at all.

#Facts 2. Tinubu is a convicted drug baron. He is free today simoly because he agreed to forfiet $460,000 drug proceeds found in his accounts, and also cos become an informant to the FBI.

#Facts 3. Peter Obi was never a drug dealer, no amount of propaganda by the APC, Osibanjo and Tinubu e rats can change his narrative or stain him.

Your senseless rants can only decieve Buharideens and Buharist, cos their low reasoning capacity is well known to all.

buharitill2023:
Op is jobless, and he could not use his joblessness to ask the VP of the jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of Bia-fra terrorist organization why he is a drug dealer and a wheeler dealer.

Lol. Must have hit some very raw nerves? Run along bozu, go blame that Daramola e-rat, he just touched the hornets nest.
How long must we remind them to stick to the facts?, Why accuse an innocent man of something he didnt do?
Gerara here, your Moral compass Tinubu and His wife Remi were drug barons, and we have facts to prove it.

So one Seun Daramola wrote a long epistle seeking answers to a set of 8 questions about HE. Peter Obi past and source of wealth. But typical of the BMC stalk, Mr. Daramola couldnt help but throw caution and decncy to the wind and exibited the deep hatred he and his gang has for Mr. Obi. A decent and exemplary man, who majority of Nigerians believe is the the incoming Vice president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
In his hate induced senseless giberish, Daramola tried without success to link Peter Obi to an imaginery Brazilian drug dealing past. Dont get me wrong, there is absolutely nothing wrong with demanding that those who sort to rule or govern a society should be accountable not only for their past or present but also for their future conducts. But while we demand of such, one must do so with a great deal of decency, fairness and Decorum, all of which were absent in Mr. Seun Daramolas write up.

Now back to the main purpose of this post. I decided to do some digging into HE. Peter Obi supposedly dirty drug dealing past and came up with absolutely nothing. Interestingly you wouldnt believe what you can stumbled on while digging for someones drug dealing Brazilian exploits!.
A must read,, Please read and click the links below to understand why people of Daramola character finds it extremely difficult to accept the fact that its possible to make your Billions legitimetly without soiling your hands.

"How U.S Federal Agents successfully Linked Bola Tinubu to drug Trafficking Ring in Chicago" report by Sahara Reporters

http://saharareporters.com/2009/02/18/index.php/how_u.s_federal_agents_succesfully_linked_bola_tinubu_to_drug_trafficking_ring_in_chicago/



Snipets.

Facts have emerged that the erstwhile Governor of Lagos state, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu may have been involved in a white heroin trafficking network which operated in Chicago and some parts of Indiana and led by one Adegboyega Mueez Akande between 1988 and 1993. The source of the white heroine was identified as one Mr. Lee Andrew Edwards who was incarcerated for attempting to murder a federal agent while the agent was executing a search warrant on him.
According to the Verified Complaint for forfeiture in case No. 93 C 4483 which was filed on July 26, 1993 before the Hon. Judge Nordberg of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, the United States Government urged the Court to order the forfeiture of funds in accounts Nos. 263226700 held by First Heritage Bank in the name of Bola Tinubu, funds in accounts 39483134, 39483396, 4650279566, 00400220, 39936404 and 39936383 held by Citibank N.A in the name of Bola Tinubu and funds in accounts 52050-89451952,52050-89451952, 52050-89451953 held by Citiban
Heroin
k in the name of Bola Tinubu because there was probable cause to believe that the funds in Tinubu’s bank accounts represented proceeds of narcotics trafficking or were monies involved in financial transactions in violations of 18 U.S.C, sections 1956 and 1957 and therefore, was forfeitable to the U.S Government.
However, in a tacit defense of the ownership of the funds, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu averred in Court that the funds belonged to himself, his wife, K.O Tinubu and his surrogate mother, Alhaja Mogaji and warranted that they had exclusive right,
title and interest to the funds.
In an affidavit sworn to by Kevin Moss, a Special Agent with the United States Internal Revenue Service, criminal investigation division in support of the verified complaint for forfeiture of Bola Tinubu’s moneys held in various Bank accounts, the agent gave a vivid account of how he came to the conclusion that the funds were proceeds of narcotics transaction in violation of the U.S law.
Mr. Moss averred that prior to and during 1988; the government became involved in the investigation of a white heroin trafficking network operating in Chicago, Illinois and Hammond, Indiana. The investigation disclosed that an individual known as Lee Andrew Edwards was a source of white heroin. The government sources provided information about Lee Andrew Edwards including the identity of a telephone number which activated in electronic pager. This
pager according to him was to be called to place an order for white heroin. According to Mr. Moss, this pager was subscribed to by one Adegboyega Mueez Akande who at that time was a resident of Chicago.
Mr. Moss further averred that during February 1988, an individual named Abiodun Agbele arrived in the U.S from Nigeria and during investigation by the government, Agbele disclosed that Akande was his uncle who provided him an apartment in Hammond, Indiana.
According to Agbele, Mr. Akande returned to Nigeria in1990; however, before he left, he instructed Agbale to serve as a source of white heroin for Mr. Lee Andrew Edwards as a result of which Agbele sold white heroin for Lee Andrew Edwards on numerous occasions. Following a tip off, Agbele sold one ounce of white heroin to a law enforcement agent undercover on November 28, 1990 for $7,000 and was subsequently arrested. After his arrest, Agbele agreed to cooperate with the law enforcement agents regarding the white heroin distribution and network of Akande.
According to Agbele, Akande controlled the operation of white heroin from Nigeria in conjunction with other individuals in Nigeria and the U.S. One other individual who worked with Akande according to the affidavit was identified as Bola Tinubu who later became the governor of Lagos state from 1999 to 2007.
The investigation also revealed that in December 1989, Akande took Bola Tinubu to First Heritage bank where Bola Tinubu opened an individual money market. In the account opening application, Tinubu, gave his address as 7504 South Stewart, Chicago, the same address used previously by Akande and his company, Globe-Link. This is the same address used as the drop-off point for packages from Nigeria that contained the white heroin. According to bank records, Bola Tinubu also opened a joint checking account in his name and the name of his wife, Oluremi Tinubu. Mrs. Tinubu had previously opened a joint Bank account also in the same bank with Abdrey Akande, the wife of the heroin kingpin, Adegboyega Mueez Akande.
Upon opening the account, Tinubu deposited the sum of $1,000 in traveler’s check. However, five days after opening the account, specifically, on January 4, 1990, Tinubu deposited the sum of $80,000 into the account.
According to the federal agent, in a credit application dated January 6, 1990, Bola Tinubu disclosed that he resided at 7504 South Stewart and that Mueez A. Akande was his cousin. Tinubu further stated that he was an employee of Mobil Oil Nigeria Limited, Fairfax, Virginia and his take home pay was $2,400 per month. Additionally, Tinubu stated on the application that he had no other sources of income and listed his wife, Oluremi Tinubu as co-applicant for the application for automobile loan. The loan was secured with the certificate of deposit in the amount of $10,000 which Tinubu had purchased with a withdrawal from the $80,000 deposit in his checking account.
According to the federal agent, Bank records from First heritage Bank disclosed that in 1990 alone, Bola Tinubu deposited $661,000 into his individual money market account and in 1993; he deposited the sum of $1,216,500 into the same money market account. The agent further avers that in 1991, Tinubu began opening accounts at Citibank in the section known as the world-wide personal banking unit where he transferred the sum of $560,000 from his money market account at the First Heritage Bank.
This development prompted the Federal agents to interview representatives from Mobil Oil regarding Tinubu’s employment status and his take-home pay. The Mobil Oil representatives confirmed to the investigators that Tinubu was employed by the Mobil Oil as a treasurer. Mobil Oil further told the federal agents that this position did not involve the transfer of large amounts of money between banking institutions. Mobil oil representatives also stated that under no circumstance would Tinubu be permitted to retain money belonging to Mobil Oil in accounts bearing Tinubu’s name. Finally, Mobil Oil confirmed that the corporation never had any accounts in banks in the southern suburbs of Chicago.
On January 10, 1992, the federal agents obtained a court Order freezing Tinubu’s accounts at First Heritage Bank and Citibank respectively. Thereafter, Tinubu contacted the First Heritage Bank to transfer money from his accounts and was advised that the accounts had been seized by the U.S Treasury.
On January 13, 1992, Mr. Moss, the Federal agent contacted Bola Tinubu in Nigeria by phone using a number provided to the First Heritage Bank by Tinubu himself. Mr. Moss averred that during the course of the interview, Bola Tinubu confirmed that he knew Mueez Adegboyega Akande. Tinubu further admitted during the interview with the federal agent that he had wire transferred $100,000 to Akande’s bank account in Houston and that the $80,000.00 of the funds used to open the account at First Heritage Bank had come from Akande. Tinubu further admitted that he had other accounts in Fairfax, Virginia and London.
Concluding his affidavit evidence, Mr. Moss stated that with all these evidence, there was probable cause to believe that the funds in the accounts held by First Heritage Bank and Citibank, N.A in the name of Bola Tinubu represented property that was involved in narcotics transaction in violation of the U.S law. He therefore, urged the Court to issue an order of forfeiture of the funds.
After a protracted litigation in which Bola Tinubu claimed that the monies legitimately belonged to him, his wife, Oluremi Tinubu and his surrogate mother, one Alhaja Mogaji, Bola Tinubu finally opted for a stipulated settlement with the U.S government. According to the settlement Order dated September 15, 1993; Hon. Judge John A Nordberg ordered that the sum of $460,000 held by Bola Tinubu in The First Heritage Bank account be forfeited to the United States Government. The Court also ordered the release of the funds held in the Citibank account and any money held in excess of $460,000 at the First Heritage account to Bola Tinubu in line with the agreement and stipulation reached by Tinubu with the federal agents.
Ironically, this case came up at the peak of the struggle against the annulment of the June 12, 1993 presidential election by the Gen. Babagida-led military junta during which time Tinubu as a member and one of the leading financiers of the National democratic Coalition (NADECO) made several “pro-democracy” trips to the U.S ostensibly to press for U.S sanctions against the Nigerian junta. It is, therefore, doubtful whether most of those trips were actually connected with the June 12, struggle after all.

As Nigerians can see the man is more of a Nigerien than a Nigerian. His ancestory is from Niger. He was born in Niger, only came to Nigeria, when his aunty was married off to the Daura emirate family. His Father was a Nigerien Daura Palace guard.
Those Senseless BMC from Brown roofed region, your sai Baba is from Niger.

cute9ja:
But these questions are valid, aren't they?

We need to hold our leaders responsible for their actions at all times

see this compound Zombie. Why not start with how Tinubu was convicted as a drug baron in the U.SA first. Hahaha you guys are just pathetic.

FlyoruB:
You Obi people should let sleeping dogs lie. The damage has already been done. If his stats were so accurate he would not have deleted some tweets. Obi would be better off as a Chinese envoy than a Nigerian VP.

and we quess Osibanjo should be minister of Almajiri abd vote buying with his latest prowess in buying votes and distributing stipends after pushing Nigerians into extreme poverty?

its easier for a camel tobpass through the eyes of a needle than Jose Mourhinho to stay at a big club beyond 3seasons.
My advice for him is to upgrade his playing pattern and interpersonal skills with the people he works with. That demigod posture worked for him years ago, but its now stale, especially when you dnt have the records to back it up.
Jose functions at his best when he is undermined or seen as an underdog, he then confortably plays his defensive games to win as the dark horse. In a big club where you are expected to dorminate. and win games while play attacking football, JM looses his spark and mojo. He should take up a job at a slightly above their pay grade hitting club like Newcaste, a semi big struggling club like AC milan or Sevilla thats now seen as an underdog, then pay defensively.

obembet:
what Pogba is doing will come back to hurt himself. ..now there is going to be more pressure on him than ever because everyone was talking that it's Mourinho that is why Pogba is not playing well so now Mourinho is gone so prove to the world that Mourinho was the problem why you were not performing well so he should be very careful even if you don't like a coach that is not how to behave you must be a proffensional look at Bale when Zidane was at Madrid he was not playing as he wanted but didn't do anything bad against Zidane and anytime Zidane give him a chance he prove it like what he did in the champions league he came on to score two gaols to win the champions league for Madrid that is what a professional do or behave not like what Pogba is doing at United he make the who world see that he was having problem with Mourinho and he don't like to work with him again now Mourinho is gone we expect you to take United to the top 4 finishing because you are the biggest start in the team so prove that now....

Pogba dont need to prove anything. He was pivotal at Juve and at The world cup, he was also a world class talent his first time at United. All united needs now is to bring on a world class coach and see how Sanchez and Pogba come alive. This should be the best time to be a united fan.

same thing Buharo did whilevhe is the chairman of PTF. He allows onky his famiky tovrunbeverything. they steal money for him. Its only the foolish North west youths and Tinubu e rats. They are looting Nigeria dry while shouting sai Baba.

stupid idiat. Your Father worked all his life to hand you a Bank and you run it aground. Even when the Bank was in red, the idiotic slowpoke refused to resign so that those who can save the bank would take over.
This is a lesson for those who keeps trying to undermine Dangote success simply because he got a 500,000 loan from his Uncle. Hello most of you wont be worth a dime after a few years if they gave you 50mil. This disgrace of a son Uzoma was handed an entire empire and he ran it to the ground. Its not enough to make money, pray God gives you children that will take after you and expand your legacy.
What a disgrace to IBOs this Uzoma Dozie is.

Ategberoson:
What business does obi own. Asking a shareholder in different companies and owner of some recognised organisation in Nigeria, what business he knows is the dumb question have ever come across on public forum?

We dont need a convicted Drug Baron and Treasury looter to teach us economics. Unlike you, Peter Obi didnt make his name in politics, he made it in Business. Container economics is better than the Buharinomic and almajiristic policies of voter moni buying to are selling to Nigerians. Even the worlds richest man Bill Gates told you APC policies are lifelessly clueless. Its only in Tinubus head that a policy where govt impoverish its citizens with clueless poverty inducing policies then turn round to throw them stipends is seen as progresive.
Peter Obi has Morethan 6 multibillionare companies before he even became a politician, what are your records Tinubu? You forged your secondary school certificate, You forged your University certifocate and is a convocted drug Baron in the U.S. so what wouldvsuch a criminal know about economics?
Nigeria is the most populated black nation on earth, China is the most populated country in the world, Nigeria is grappling with underdevelopment, poverty, mismanagement and unemployement, Obstacles China overcame to pull over 400million people out of poverty. Its only an empty barrel and one who is consumed by greed that would not see the wisdom of why China should be a yardstick if we intend to grow or develope.
You socalled policies has made Nigeria the 3most dangerous country to live in, and the poverty capital of the world. When it comes to governance, we can see the records you have. Can this one say he performed better than Peter Obi as governor?
Under Obi Anambra saw better road networks, Better quality of education and health care. Anambra whooped your Lagos in terms of Quality of Education delivery and MDGs performance. So your empty arrogance cannot change the narrarives. only Your own section of brown envelop media would say Osibanjo didnt get the trashing of his life at the debate.

secondly, what all these Drug dealers cum tax collector without anything to show on ground economists need to learn is, China is the reason why most of our manufacturing plants folded up, they are the main reason our textiles and manufacturing comoanies are closed. We dont expect a drug convicted criminal, who loots his states tax revenue to run his business to understand the need to study China so as to be able to compete and beat them.
Finally without Lagos, who is Tinubu? he will go broke, thats why he is hell bent on keeping Lagos at all cost. Obi is out of govt, his various business interests are still doing well.

Lol. to tell how pathetic the relationship has become, they cannot even get Aisha Buhari to seat very close to Ju... sorry Buhari for the cameras. They now have to result to an art work cos they know just how low the interlectual capacity of Buhari Supporters are. Its only unintelligent fanatics that are supporting Buhari.

"Blood is the most expensive of all,” the devout Sheikh cries as he decries the careless shed of blood in Nigeria under President Muhammadu Buhari. The Sheikh had explained his stands, while lamenting that the Jonathan administration gave people more right to free speech, unlike the Buhari administration which clamped down excessively on freedom of speech.

Sheikh Gumi in this video refuses to be intimidated by the mob, as he makes bold to say that no other administration has shed more blood than the Buhari administration. The Sheikh did not mince words when he stated that “anybody killed in your regime, you are responsible for the blood.” This is a response for the FG, especially when it tries to pass blames to the previous administration.

Not one day goes by without a child becoming an orphan or a wife becoming a widow in Zamfara State. Our soldiers who lost their lives in Metele were just buried; their kids and widows cry every day. Most territories are still strongholds of the dreaded Boko Haram. Perhaps the Sheikh has had enough of this, and now he wants a resignation from an administration he considers as inept.

The Sheikh wants the resignation “NOW.”

This is coming from an Islamic Sheikh o. The ones I have problem with are not even the Fanatics Buhari govt have empowered today, atleast we knew them for who they are. The ones am worried about are the Tinubu section of Yoruba Muslims hell bent on retuning Buhari back to power. These ones dont know when it comes to Fanatism, there are no such thing as middle ground, When the fanatics finish wiping out Christians and Other religion minorities in the North, they will face the South and when that one is achieved these Fanatics will then wipe out the moderate Muslims, which most of them say they are. We can see that in the North East. initially they would secretly inform muslims in an area that they want to attack, then after ransacking these christian communities, towns and villages, they started killing their fellow muslims, Imams were slaughtered for soeakibg against theor barbarism,they then result to killings of whom ever that critisize them cos they feel they are not practising their own brand of Islam.
I dnt even think IBOs are that stupid to allow these to happen.

NIGERIA IS 100+ YEARS AND ISLAM DON'T TAKE PART IN ANYTHING IN IGBO LAND, IF THEY COULDN'T DO IT IN DURING THE MILITARY REGIME, WHY DO YOU THINK THEY CAN DO IT NOW, HAUSA/FULANI MUSLIM HAVE KILLED MANY IGBOS SO WHY DO YOU THINK IGBO WILL ACCEPT ISLAM?
OUR CULTURE HARDLY MIX WITH ISLAM, SHOW ME ONE MUSLIMS WHO IS A CELEBRITY, POLITICIAN.
AN AVERAGE IGBO MAN HATES ISLAM, NOT JUST BECAUSE HE CHRISTIAN

IF IGBO MUSLIMS EXIST, THEY WON'T BE MORE THAN 00.01%

From my experience, IBOS dont have anything against muslims. The sentiments they have is just cos they have been targetted over the years by Fanatic mulims in the North. IBOS dont wake up and start killing people, The only times there is friction between IBOS and Hausa Mulims in the East is usually when their People living in the NORTH are targetted and killed during crisis. They are naturally Humanists who value lives over Religion. If IBOS can see proof that Islam brings peace, development and progress they will embrace it, like they did the christian faith. After resisting the white man for years, IBOs later saw the value of education, they embraced christianity whole heartedly cos they saw the advancement of the white men over their own society. This they took christianity, cos they knew the only way to be educated is to start going to the mission Church.
There are millions of IBOs living in the NORTH, and anyone who is truthful wil attest they live in peace with their neighbours, in SWest, SSouth and North central. They even have a proverd that states “Take only What belongs to you and what you ate allowed to to have by your host, never take that which belongs to your host”.
Problem is they are predorminantly Christians, so when ever the Muslim fanatics Of the North have problem with even their fellow Northern Christian brothers, they attack anyone they see as christians, thus many IBOs bear the brunt. So gradually the IBOs disliked for Fanatics of Islam.
I think this is where their disdain of BUHARI started from, IBOs have lived and worked in harmony with Hausa muslims, Fulanis and Yorubas for decades, they just dont like Fanatics or those who associate with fanatics.
Yar Adua was a liberal Fulani and Muslim man, IBOs voted enmass for him. Makarfi, Tambuwal, Saraki and so on are also seen by then as Liberals thus woukd vote enmass if any of them wkn the primaries. These Hausa Fulanis are considered to be moderates.

So I think IBOs dont hate Muslims they somply hate the culture of fanatism some muslims exibit.

I HAVE NEVER HEARD/SEEN IGBO MAN WHO IS A MUSLIM BEFORE, APC ARE LOOKING FOR WAYS O PLANT ISLAM IN IGBO LAND, THEIR NEXT MOVE NOW WILL BE HOW TO START BUILDING MOSQUES FOR THE SO CALLED IGBO MUSLIMS

Back in the day, when an IBOman converts, the rich Muslims take him or her under their wings, Feed, cloth and esterblish them. They sometimes are giving Millions of naira. Trust IBO men na. Na so dozens convert to collect their own share. Lol. when came down to the come down, Okoro and chukujeku disappear tof the Yeast or Lagos to start importation. All the Alhajis in the North using theor hard earned money realized IBO gene and Islam is like oil and water. There are dozens in Saudi and the middle east Mulim Ibos, but when they return home Na to dey go Mass or servece every sunday for their village. The only thing that will make IBOs embrace Islam is the day they see Islam transform the Middle East and Areas in Nigeria where they predorminantly Muslims into economic hubs, developed world class cities. IBO have seeb enough blood shed already, they fight and kill only to protect their freedom and rights. Not for religion or fanatism.

ImperialYoruba:
Let them know, Insha Allah we will back any Ibo Muslim candidate that come out to run for office. They have nothing to fear. We shall penetrate beyond the barriers and every part of Nigeria must be diversified. Is there any ethnic group in Nigeria that does not have religious diversity?

When Samuel Crowther, the father of Christianity in Nigeria took mission to Iboland and taught them worship of God and how to read Bible in their own language he did not instruct them to use the Bible to oppress their people. In Crowther's hometown today Christians and Muslims worship side by side and felicitate together, inter marry. So what would be the excuse of his Ibo flock to go against his teachings? Unacceptable!

Ibo muslim must be a political force in SE. My Ibo people must commit to improve society.

According to a U.N report, the South East is one of the most peaceful and fastest developing regions over the years. Many are even surprised they fought the civil war and lost, with not even a single storey building allowed to stand. They didnt get any help, yet they crawled back from the gutter without a single help from govt and now ahead of most of the regions.
Bros, the South East have seen how good Islam have been to Irag, Syria, Afghanistan, pakistan, Palestine and the rest of the middle east. they have seen how the fanatism you exibit has brought made the North a very peaceful place na. In Nigeria the South East have seen how good Islam have been to North west with all the killings and the South east hav also observed how much development Islam has brought to the North East, the peace and love it brought to Bornu, Yobe, Adamawa, where brothers slaughter themselves even when they are of thesame religioun. The South East people have seen how Islam have made North the envy of the whole nation na. Bullet trains, firstclass infrastructures and standard education.
The Ibos dont waste time on.things that dnt profit humanity. Such as the fanatism you exibit here. Ibos are pro-harmony, inclussiveness, progress, growth, success. advancement, development and peace. They are not backward. They sort a country where people are allowed to be free and fairness to all. Not the kind of exclussiveness Buhari and Tinubu are preaching today. Those IBOs fighting for Biafra only do so cos of the exclussive and marginalisation that they are subjected too over the years..
IBOs know like the rest of the whole world know, your brand of Islam only breds violence, illitracy, backwardness, bloodshed, lack of peace and poverty.
IBOs are smart people, they wont kill their brothers who are Muslims, like you do in the North, they wont sideline them cos of their faith. So also IBOS who are muslims, they are wise, peaceful cos they raised them to value humanity over fanatism.

naijalander:
Of all the communities in Nigeria, Yorubas have the strongest traditional institutions. An attack in Tinubu or Akiolu is a direct attack on traditional institutions in the SW, these institutions have never been more in sync with the Yoruba elite and middle class as they are today and that's why you'll always elections.

Instead of assimilating, you seek to change what does not even belong to you to begin with, if there will be change, it will come from Yorubas themselves.

Honestly commenting on this thread is a waste of brain power abeg, anyway Na una sabi.

Shey Tinubuvis now your overall leader abi? Ok o. Noted, but when we send him and his gang back to your region, i hope you wont come back and claim he is not your main leader o.
