Politics › Re: People Underestimate Gowon, But He Saved Nigeria, Veteran Journalist Says by MrGerald(m): 4:02pm On Oct 21, 2024
richmond500:
How is Nigerian govt not giving the east a level playing ground?
Are u not receiving allocation? Are u not allowed to vote during elections?
Is there anything that other states enjoy yet the east does not?

The best governor u people have is Otti, yet when you compare him to governors from other regions, he is just average at best.
How did you come to conclusion is Otti? Is he doing better than Ebonyi or Enugu, or which other governor/s you think performing better from other region? Again, how many federal government institutions, agency or facilitated companies they positioned in the East? These and many more are the reason this country is not going the way it should, but I don't care.

I'm sure this one has his own slush funds stashed away in foreign countries too.
Igbos naturally have sense of humor, if he stole I bet you they don't do it like their counterpart in other region without regards to anything, I can count many of these cases, once you appoint average northerner or westerner MD to any fed agency, he'd like to leave there a billionaire while he may not worth up to a million before then

Maybe it means that your £20 narrative isn't really grounded in truth.

But that aside, we're talking of government administration.

If the igbo people are a special breed destined to save Nigeria, most igbo governors and civil servants won't be quacks.

But that isn't the case.

Igbo governors steal and embezzle the same wain they do in Osun State.

Igbo Civil servants would ask you for bribe the same way they do in Kebbi state.

Igbo senators and members of the house of rep join on sharing and embezzling like their counterparts from all other parts of Nigeria.

So, what is this superiority you're talking about?
Yes I agree with you they also embezzle like others but one thing you must know is the Igbos don't embazzle with reckless abandon like others do

What were the administrative achievements of Sam Mbakwe and M.I Okpara?

But that is still an aside. Assuming, without conceding, that they were good administrators, they're just two. Exceptions that prove the general trend of incompetence. If the Igbos were an advanced race, all the governors and senators of Igbo extraction would be exceptional.

Rather, they're all meh.
This shows that you're a kid, there's even no one in your region to compare to these people then, infact before and during the civil war the Igbos has best administrators, biggest elite names in the whole country

Always blaming people for ur failure.
The war u caused ended like 60yrs ago, yet eastern region always produce the most incompetent governors every election cycle.
Abia state is still struggling to pay 18k minimum wage while some states have approved 85k
LoL most incompetent in what way? Always talking without thinking. If the East is not in Nigeria it'd go far by now, with their strong economy then. Don't forget your Nigeria government is not giving them a level playing ground, inclusive governance, marginalization are what he's talking about, I'm always praying for the day this country will disintegrate I'll call party all day.

Out of all the questions I asked you, you can't answer one. Although, I expected it to be a gibberish message to you since Kanu has donated your brain and common sense to exchange for ipob infected brain that believed buhari was cloned and Jubril from sudan. I don't expect baby factory product like you to understand that kind of message, but I thought the remaining functioning one will allow you call one sensible elder to interprete to you in the language you understand, but you failed simple test again. I am still looking for what I will envy in Biafra land, but I am yet to see any.

Is it the way you reason upside down that you want me to envy or the way ekpa collect donations from igbos to kill igbos is what I should envy? Nothing to envy yet! Let sensible and hardworking igbos enjoy the land is what I am all about. Ipob is like a cancer to Igbo land. May God bring cure to heal the land and reset many brains like yours that ipob has affected back to default. So that we can enjoy peace once more in alaigbo

Is it not better you mention and list sensible and smart tactics for people to see instead of mere talks. Is it education they sponsor across Biafra land? Because I only heard them burning school like open universities and secondary schools. Is it international investors both Massob and ipob attracted to Biafra land because I only heard them chasing investors? Is it loan or assistance both ipob and Massob gave to traders and small businesses because I only heard ipob destroying okpa, rice for violating sit at home and hijack vehicles for their killing and kidnapping operations.

You better stop deceiving yourself. Massob killed many igbos and at the end of the day, he retired to old age as landlord collecting rentages. How many people can he wake up now out of people Massob wasted for senseless and fruitless Biafra venture? No Biafra, no refund. Kanu came and wasted his own Igbo people, collected donations and leave at large.

Ekpa wasted igbos for fun on weekly basis killing igbo Ezes, Igbo police, army, civilians, rich and poor as well as brainless Biafra youths that wasted their lifes till death hoping to get paid when Biafra is achieved. How does that make sense to you? After wasting so many Igbo lifes, destroyed their properties, chased investors out of Alaigbo, locked them indoor on mondays and make alaigbo a danger zone for investors, where is that Biafra now? Biafra he wasted so many igbos for, where is that Biafra?

If that Biafra is achieved, who is deceiving you it will be the best nation on earth where terrorists like ipob will want to take prominent role or even rule Biafrans and kill at will? Biafra that different agitators will arise claiming abia is marginalized, ebonyi is marginalized, Enugu should be the capital, Anambra should be the capital and before you know it chaos will start. How will you compare that with Yoruba nation that never killed a fly? How will you be happy even with that Biafra if achieved today with so many senseless blood spilled already to lay foundation of Biafra?

You better go and sit down somewhere, and stop deceiving yourself. Let's join hands together to bring senses back to Alaigbo where peace was once having his headquarters. Magic will not happen in Biafra so far human being will still rule it. White men are not the one ruling your states now, they are still Biafrans. There will still be ups and downs, there will still be pausity of funds to pay workers. Human will still be selfish and embezzle. Getting Biafra or getting Yoruba nations is just like changing containers without minding about rotten contents
All I see in this gibberish are bitter, anger, jealousy and your typical tribalism that you guys are known for. All the rubbish you mentioned here are happening all over the country

Also electric torch came to Nigeria early 2000s, we used one kind lantern with glass gloves, in the 90s before battery torches. electric torch was recent.
Also 1930's pictures are not this sharp, the white colours of 1930 pics are tanned
Stainless cups were en vogue before 1990s, rampant than these days, 1937 not fat

Let him loose it, he can still remember the colour of his prison key. Kanu and ekpa did not use their brains well because ipob was being directed by illiterates unlike Yoruba nation that is being directed by a professor that is being care of violating the law. Now, the response to honourable minister of foreign affairs was superb and expected. Ipob and Yoruba nations should return back to their local legislative to make right decision.

Yorubas wouldn't take harms killing their Yorubas unlike ipob and ekpa killing Igbo civilians, millitary, rich and poor because of futureless Biafra matter. Yorubas are more cultured and enlighten than ipobs in that regards
Do you know all the tactics both massob, ipob and kanu have used? Always claiming smart in this and that but no reflection to it. No stay there they'll bring the freedom in the comfort of your room

Foreigners are now calling out Peter Obi's hypocrisy, something we have been yarning for a while

Modified: Peter Obi's supporters should understand that Peter Obi is not above mistakes. It's inability of his supporters and people around him that's not making him to have head way in politics.

Please what's the meaning of non state actor? Who are the people causing insecurity in South East if not Ipob militia wing UGM.

Those who take responsibility for their actions are ready to move ahead but pointing fingers, okay oo

A spade should be called what exactly it is .

Btw, why is it so difficult for some Peter Obi's supporters to engage others maturely without throwing tantrums? How would such attitude attract undecided votes to una side when contrary opinions won't be tolerated.. Same obsolete methods
The problem is that you don't even know where you stand, if Obi had call them criminals or robbers, you'll be the one all over nairaland crying he should call them ipob terrorists.

Honestly, I am not hating. I am just telling you the TRUTH. I care less about Lagos or Kano but as a Nigerian/foreigner, the WORST place to live in Nigeria is Onitsha.

It might be a bit safe for indigenes but definitely not for outsiders. So lawless set of people who are highly criminal. There is a place call Lagos garage area in Onitsha. That is the worst place any human alive who want to be.

You are free to tag me anything but I am sure people who are in Onitsha or have been there before will bear me witness that Onitsha remains the WORST place in Nigeria.

Good luck
Have you lived in Onitsha before? Or only on transit that you're tagging Onitsha worst place in Nigeria that I know most of the cities very well? Everything city has some dangerous areas so is Onitsha too, maybe you're a kinda fearful human

Yorubas didn’t build this didn’t build that and yet Southwest is the most developed region in the country.
The same Ibadan you are here masturbating about has several developed places far beyond your conception.
The same Yorubas have long lasting businesses and can shake the country’s economy.
Yoruba built the entertainment industry, they built schools, build manufacturing companies, Yorubas are part of telecoms, banks and financial institutions and they are still ruling you weather you like it or not.

You must die of pain over your jealousy
You people would start insult but once you're hit back you start crying, everything you think you are now or doing, Igbos has been into it and still doing. The most developed? Where's the development or Lagos as usual? Story, we all know how Lagos is built. Even in that Lagos when you check it's economic status and projection they'd always let you know that it's being controlled by businesses managed by Igbos

Which trees in 1970 of yesterday? Keep deceiving yourself, naturally Yorubas don't spend money in renovations or even building a new edifice, not just Ibadan but spread across the region, where I come from great-grandfathers houses always go through renovations, or if you want to build mansion there you'd pulled it down but remain a fraction part of it for the memory of your father or grandfather
