This is a different case scenario these guys are not dipping their hands into the public till or using government business as a personal business. Oga have some conscience abeg.

Dsalvo:
Stop disgracing yourself. New Markets will always have 'early bird' innovators because it has to be someone.

That means diddly squat when very brilliant competition begins to rear head.

What is so hard to understand about Yorubas, accross the board, dominating the development, use and applications of information technology?

Can you guys never give credit where due or, at worst, shut up and say nothing if incapable of that?

The history of "Igbo identity" is complex, but I will try to sum it up. For some people who have conversed with me here on NL, this may sound like a repeat (but I think it is worth repeating).

Igbo identity is the end product of two thing. 1) The effort Europeans put into classifying and grouping communities for the purpose of effective colonial administration. 2) The shared Biafran experience. #2 is more significant than #1, but #1 actually drew the initial boundaries.

Thanks to the efforts of colonial administration, British anthropologists and ethnographers, we got a categorical definition of what "Igbo" was. For example, it is because of their effort that (Naija politics notwithstanding) we can easily recognize an "Igbo group". It's not hard, and this is thanks to the categorical definition that they provided. By the 1920s, nationalism was starting to develop in Nigeria. We saw our first set of "Igbo Union" during this period. So at this time, it was clear that some people starting to accept the categorical definition to describe themselves.

The Biafran experience is when it really solidified. The categorical definition was finally transformed into an ethnic definition by the end of the war. Igbo people (categorical definition) provided this ethnic definition by themselves, and have continued to perpetuate it (in an often fanatical manner).

So there isn't a single "starting point". It's really just the culminating effect of various events in the past.

Baba have you seen Buhari medical report? Or Tinubu’s?
Two years ago y’all atikulated though Atiku is older than Tinubu

jesmond3945:
tell tinubu to open oyinbo market so that the poor can see food to eat.

ChinenyeN:
Yeah. I think it’s about time Igbo people start giving room for communities to finally exit. After all, this idea of “Igbo identity” is barely even a century old. It can be undone. The benefit of being a “large national block” doesn’t even exist, and that’s basically the only purpose of this Igbo identity. In other words, it doesn’t even serve a purpose anymore.

We should bring back “biri ka m biri” so that communities can embark on their journeys for self-determination.

Ingocof:
This is what Tinubu has done, he stole all the money that belong to Abia state.

DubaiLandLord1:

What do you people expect from a panel led by an Nyamiri woman.

Sips cool zobo.

Asgard73:
Very foolish yorubatic I too know question..
very senseless and one think he’s making sense.

...

plaindealer:
So, the panel gave free money to people that did not even petition or filed any claim, they just made the decision on their own and that person walked away with N10 Million taxpayers money.

It was later revealed in front of the panel that this person shared the money with members of the panel.

They also awarded millions to a dead victim who was actually alive in front of them, but they still claimed he was dead and gave him money.

It was also revealed that the panel did not prove one single death, no aggrieved family member, no autopsy reports, no death certificates, nothing, but they still wrote a report that people died at the toll gate.

Going by this report, you are allowed to say people died, even if you don't have proof that people actually died, you don't have to prove anything, you don't need autopsy, you don't need a death certificate, just say they died, that's all.

Now, do you see the reason why things doesn't work in this country and why this country is so screwed up?

In 2021, we still have people with this kind of backward, dubious and corrosive manner of doing things.

Only In Nigeria.

Thinkam:
Does Tinubu have a magic wand?

The same magic wand that Buhari had to lower dollars rate
To the magic power to jail looters or integrity
Or osinbanjo rumored powers to speak to criminals and make them give their life to christ, or the magic wisdom...

Igboland:
Why not tell Nigeria your preferred candidate n let see how much he transformed his state or how much he generated as IGR so we can compare the with Tinubu.

Thinkam:
This is not a response, my question is how feasible is his template for lagos the solution to a whole Nigeria..
Lagos was leading even with jakande

Nonpartisan1:
I want to believe the panel was made up of some lawyers.

1. How do lawyers prove murder in criminal cases?
2. Where are the dead bodies?
3. Where are their families?
4. What is the cause of their death?
5. Where are their photographs?
6. Why did any member of their families not come forward to make claims for a whole year?
7. Where are the eye witnesses who claimed they saw dead bodies?
8. How many dead bodies did they claim they saw?
9. Why did they not take photographs of the dead bodies?
10. Did the panel answer all or some of these questions?

LegendHer0:
Lol.

Didinrin you better tell your Twitter followers to get their PVC. 2023 is already here and all this stories that touch don’t mean jack.

Below is how the real voters look like. So instead of wasting productive time on Twitter convincing people that won’t vote, carry your bad belle crusade to the real voters.
