The professor is right. Those students are not disciplined.

Besides, is that not how some people wanted Buhari to fight corruption? Let's be honest, it's the same thing.

He is stamping out indiscipline and corruption from his class.

This is not osinbajo but Sagay. He is being emotional. He should tell us where the act is inconsistent with the constitution.

Will this support glo 4g

Looks like the devices that support Glo 4g are so few.

Some people never learn. Remember the story of the titanic?
It didn't reach its destination.

Forgive and take her back.

On a good day I won't advise you to do so... Maybe you share more information about her.

tbaba1234:
The fact that Fayose and FFK are even given airtime in Nigeria shows the lack of quality opposition in Nigeria.

Seriously, we lack viable options for leadership. People with ideas and intelligent contributions.,

So what kind of opposition do you want. The one that will not rattle the ruling party.

Oh, I get it. The kind of sheriff opposition that will claim to be the party chairman yet ensured his party lost Edo and Ondo elections.

Abeg, everyone knows that APC never had an opposition.

Someone please clarify. Is Olamide no longer "badoo"?

That result must be for Sheriff faction.

This is not an intelligent piece from momodu.

He makes it seem as if the problems of Nigeria and the quest for restructuring is all about Igbo presidency.

He makes it seem as if the average yoruba man is better off because Osinbajo is the VP.

This writeup makes me think Nigeria cannot be better again.... Look at Momodu writing that the status quo remains.

Shameful indeed.

Nonsense thread.

Isn't this supposed to be in the homepage?
If I blast El-Rufai, some people will say corruption is fighting back.

Before we go too far. Check the hypocrisy of Nigerians on tonto's issues. Check the responses.

AND THIS ONE.

Well, if we call a spade it's name, they will say we are supporting corruption of corruption is fighting back.

So, let's move on.

Mchweew. Abegyy.. How come no body is called the bomb blast a failure of leadership. We know what they say when GEJ was president.

BTW. the children kidnapped at Epe Lagos, have still not been found there's no protest anywhere, no bring back our boys the media doesn't even give a fvck.

Where are our analysts. No one cares. Yet same people accused GEJ when there was rubbery in Lekki.

Hope we all remember. Please let's not forget these things.

That means the traditional rulers collected the bribe.
In fact.

Oleh is an Isoko town mister. What direction are you pointing at with its inclusion?

Oleh is a core part of the Niger Delta!

I don't expect you to understand. I know you so well. Is there any place I mentioned that's not Niger delta in the true sense of it ?

I think this our Niger delta thing needs to be redefined. Besides I still ask what is south south. It's quite interesting that me an insider is asking these questions.

The thread drives home the point anyway.

Note that I've never rejected being called a Niger deltan. I just think we are narrow minded with these things.

Good Day All!
Happy Sallah To My Muslim Friends!

If you go into the street of Nigeria and ask, who is a Niger Deltan?
95% of respondents will likely fail the question.
The Reason for this write up is that some Peoples ignorantly love to use the phrase "IGBOS and NIGER DELTANS".
Its wrong and an embarrasement to the intellectual mindset.
-
First, What is a Delta?
A Delta is a Land area where a River spread into diverse tributuaries before emptying into an Ocean or Sea.
-
Niger Delta is the delta of River Nigeria.
The USA has Mississippi Delta.
The China has Yangtze Delta.
The Egypt has Nile delta.
And so on.
-
In Nigeria, How Is A Niger Deltan identified, lets examine it in three ways and then solve the Igbos and Niger Delta Question.
-
1) Niger Delta as Oil Producing Areas?- If Niger Delta is classified by Oil Producing Areas, that mean Igbos, Yorubas, Ijaws, Urhobos etc are part of it.
- Yorubas produce Oil in Ondo state.
- Igbos have Oil producing areas in Ukwa areas of Abia, Egbema, Asa/Ndoki, Oguta, Ogbaru, Ndoni, Omuma, Etche etc.
-
So if it is classified by Oil producing areas, that means all ethnic groups in southern Nigeria are Niger Deltans.
-
2) Niger Deltans As South South States?- This is the classification many use to define Niger Deltan.
And they even Ignorantly think Igbos are not part of it.
I am an Asa lady from Oyigbo LGA In Rivers state.
I am proudly Igbo and Niger Deltan.
Also the Ndokis, Ndoni, Etches, Egbemas etc are also Oil producing areas in South South and they are part of the Igbo Nation.
Ikwerre, Ogba and Ekpeye may be a battleground of identity issue but they are of Igboid stock.
So you see if we use South South as classification of Niger deltan, IGBOS are part and parcel of it.
-
3) Niger Deltan By Virtue Of Geographical Location?
If we go by this classification, that means Edo and Cross River people are not Niger deltans, because there is no delta of the River Niger in their location.
If we go by this classification, that means IGBOS are fully part of the Niger Delta.
-
My Final submission is that trying to create Niger Delta without mentioning IGBOS is a big FRAUD.
There are Igbos in the term "NIGER DELTA".
Even the River Niger is a dermacation between two Igbo Cities Onitsha and Asaba.
-
The days of divide and conquer are fading away.
I am an Asa/Ndoki person.
Oyigbo is my LGA!
Rivers is my state.
IGBO is my ethnic nation.
And Yes I am a Niger Deltan just like my fellow Igbos like Etches, Ndonis, Egbemas, Ogbarus, Ogutas, etc.
Thank you all.

I agree with you.

Many years back when we I was more frequent in my home state, I used to hear our people use words like "we the real Niger delta." I just laugh at the foolishness. Their mindset is that the man from Enekorogha is more Niger deltan than a man from Oleh, kwale, and Asaba. These things were rife when ibori was governor and diluted when oduaghan became governor. Indeed it's foolish.

fiizznation:
People never get tired of whining and complaining in this part of the world. I thought some people said the president is dead!!! So why are you crying because a "dead" man spoke in hausa language?


Btw BBC hausa service paid him the courtesy visit, so you don't expect the president to speak any other language aside hausa language.

You are really funny.

BBC hausa paid him a courtesy visit indeed. Would you also tell us why various other media houses have been denied access to buhari. I don't expect you to be objective, it's the ab0ki way of life. We all remember yaradua's voice on "BBC" dejavu you'll say. It quite easy for these same people to pull such stunt.

My question to you in particular, if GEJ had done this, will you defend him? Because we all knew the attack GEJ faced. These kind of thing underscores the "Unity of Nigeria" we bandy about.

The funny thing is, when you speak against things like this, some people will say corruption is fighting back.

Imagine.

If the purpose of a thing (friendship /relationship) is not known, abuse and misuse is inevitable.

The first portion of this thread gave the @op, away. He's neither from the region nor from delta state. The topic of the thread is different from the content.

@op, do something else to keep yourself busy.

To the put so much thought to this and then bring out such crap, shows something is wrong or someone/nairaland is messing up your mind.

Please get busy with better things.

You see. They gave him his money and he didn't check it immediately.

If I tell you what they did, some fools will attack with scientific nonsense.

It's juju manipulation. To make you do whatever they want. We are all learning from your experience. Thanks for sharing.

agabusta:
Fashola did not complain about other Federal projects. He only complained about reducing the allocation to Federal projects and then diverting them into constituency projects which are actually state and local government projects.

Why not open your own eyes properly before advising others to do same??

Fashola clearly stated that the plan is to complete all ongoing projects before starting new ones! The last administration awarded a lot of projects that were partially funded, what is the sense in abandoning those ones and starting new ones again? What is the sense in moving funds to supposedly state roads without design and tender bids? How did the NASS members arrive at the financial figures they put there?

The East West road you mentioned is also an ongoing project, would it have made any sense to have it abandoned while the NASS members are putting in state roads and boreholes as constituency projects??

When you want to reduce the narrative to a ludicrous level, you bring in borehole.

Which state road are you talking about. Please let's remove sentiments. At this rate will the East West Road be completed? Look, we have federal roads that cuts across various constituencies.

Forget what fashola said and look for the fact. That's the way to open your eyes.

It's so easy to manipulate Nigerians. Especially if you put in fashola in the story.

Of course, using second Niger bridge and Lagos ibadan Road will be a good way to whip up emotions.

The executive have captured projects in locations of interest to specific members of the the executive in the budget, leaving out others. While making arrangements of how to "chop"

What the legislature did was to ensure other areas are captured. There are federal roads in various constituencies that were left out, who will then work on such projects.

Of course fashola wants to complete Lagos - ibadan Road. What about other roads, what about East West Road. Shouldn't they compete it? What is the allocation for the road, will it complete it also? You want to abandon the road?

This thing cuts across. Nigerians, please we've insulted the legislature enough. The executive is manipulating you.

Nigerians please open your eyes.

Daboomb:
What story do you want to see when they are ye to be CAUGHT?
Or you just want some other story to be used to cover the KIDNAP KING Chukwudi Onwuamadike (popularly known as Evans, from Nnewi, Anambra State),story, abi?

Just watch, it will be another Nyamirin that did it and they will be caught.

These tribe that is always bringing disgrace to themselves, anywhere they go, ehn?

I'm not interested in who did it. I'm not from the south east. My point is that. School girls were kidnapped and we accused the government of doing nothing and pressured them to action. Even when it was political.

Now school boys have been kidnapped and no campaign for their release, no pressure on government to act. Seun is not interested, he has non of it on his platform, he didn't open threads himself, as a civic duty. tunde bakare hasn't bothered to mention it in his sermons. Check all the radio and TV stations they are not interested.

All Seun and his ilk wants is an Evans, who will have his day in court.

Every valid point made on the chibok girls issue can be made on this issue and it will still be valid.

Where are those who told us that if you can't rescue an abducted person within 48 hours, it becomes difficult. Where are they.

The way the kidnapped boys issue is having media blackout, further gives credence to the fact that, the Chibok girls abduction was high level politics.


How will the parents of the boys feel that those who championed the Chibokgirls campaign are not interested in their abducted boys for so long.

Where are those who put the pictures of the girls at Falomo, ikoyi, where are those who put the countdown to the release of the chibok girls on newspaper?

That's my point.

Seun and his mod keep putting stories of Evans of the front page. We haven't seen any story of the Lagos school boys kidnapped.

Abi Seun no Sabi open thread?

The campaign of bring back our boys never started. In fact people aren't interestef :-XSeun and his mod keep putting stories of Evans of the front page. We haven't seen any story of the Lagos school boys kidnapped.

For gas cylinder with meter. Forte oil sells it in Lagos. I bought one, people buy them.

All these people talking about keeping gas cylinder outside, those with camp gas or 12kg gas with burner on top, should do what?

Well, my own question is what really causes the pop sound on some gas stove. Someone said it happens when the grill space on the burner is widen due to heat and air now passes through it.

Who knows about this. I mean when the gas suddenly pop when the stove is lit.

Bolustical:
Now tell me, why are MTN, GLO, AIRTEL & others not packing up?

Are they not operating in the same country?

Is MTN not existing despite the huge fines it paid?

Oga, use your brain before quoting me.

Stop being silly.

I could also say, have boko haram killed every Nigerian? are we not all in the same country?

Do you even have details of the Etisalat loan? Go and research the current situations of companies.

Bolustical:
Reno Omokri is a mockery to common sense and constructive reasoning,

Going by his fallacious logic,

Ben Murray Bruce (the CommonNonsense Twitter Senator) whose STV/Galleria AMCON took over last year backed PMB too,

RAYMOND Dokpesi who could not pay his staff backed PMB,

Bayelsa state governor(with just 8 LGAs) who is owing backlog of salaries supported PMB too,

Everyone knows that Etisalat's problems were as a result of mismanagement,

Well, not surprised, Reno's stupidity will appeal to the REDMUDDERS, DRUG PEDDLERS, DEVELOPERS & UNITY BEGGARS.

They are his mugus.

You are worse.

Which mismanagement are you referring to. Etisalat got hit by the effects of wrong policies of government.
Besides, Reno had privileged information on some of these things.

The examples you gave are far different from the case of Etisalat.

obailala:
I dont really know about the economic policy of buhari being sound or not, I just hate it and get irritated whenever I read supposed graduates making some shallow comparisons and conclusions like "during GEJs time, even with the alleged corruption, things weren't this bad for Nigerians."

These people always fail to acknowledge the more than 60% drop in revenue when making their watery comparisons; they also are too myopic to see that in this time of famine, we are currently suffering from the consequences of those indiscretions of the recent past.

Sorry you are giving needless lifeline to a grossly incompetent administration. It's a convenient narrative of the present government and those who are never objective to blame their failings on the past government.

Please, if a government is not delivering, it's simply not delivering. QED

obailala:
Sorry I was basically addressing the general notion in the air that is forcing an islamisation colouration to this.

Islamization is a narrow perspective to my earlier posts. I wasn't addressing that. Islam is going to be hit and really hard.

That's not the point I'm making. My point is there's no national or moral values without God.
