Politics / Re: Nnamdi Kanu Disobeys Court Order,Appears In The Presence Of More Than 10 People by Ndeavour(m): 1:09am On Apr 30, 2017
Hunger bad... Have you eaten?
HungerBAD:
Send him back to jail.

This Mo.ron does not know how to function properly outside.

The law is the law,and is not a respecter of anybody that has broken it.

There are no sentiments attached. And if Nnamdi Kanu has violated the terms of his bail conditions,then he should be taken back into custody.

He is not special,so not above the law.

I hope the the Prosecutors and Judge sees these pictures.

Politics / Re: Ohanaeze Ndigbo To Capture Data Of All Igbo by Ndeavour(m): 5:41pm On Mar 23, 2017
Go Get Brain Bro

ImperialYoruba:
Another Ohanaeze scam on the horizon. Lol.

This Nnedu just dey jump about doing trial and error to see how to gain footing but its all hit and miss.

He first release press briefing after meeting with Yoruba PDP stalwarts and termed it "meeting with Yoruba Leaders", just to it curry it and serve to his followers. He went to North and met with Eze Ndigbos in North and said he met with Northern Leaders.

Buhari congratulated his victory to become Ohanaeze leader he called it "the President have trust in him and has extended hands of friendship to ndigbo".

He came out a week later after Kanu was sent from court back to jail and released anothe press briefing to say ndigbo are marginalized and treated as slaves in Nigeria.

Every week he has something to say to press. Now he is capturing Ibo data. Next he will ask all those in that data list to send money to get lawyer from USA Israel to defend their rabbi in Kuje.


Nonsense and alacrity!

Politics / Agatu Killings Vs Gbaramatu Military Occupation: The Irony Of National Unity by Ndeavour(m): 11:36am On Mar 03, 2016
I am tempted to conclude that Agatu is not part of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. For the country to carry on in the face of such advanced level of impunity-sack almost 7 villages and take over the villages with a visible presence of over 5000 cows. Yet no arrest, no security being beefed up, no concerted effort to bring perpetrators to book or prevent future occurrence.
Nigeria remains a wonder!

I recall that only only some months ago, militant action in Gbaramatu South-south Nigeria was vehemently resisted by Federal troops with raids in surrounding communities affecting even the innocent.

Juxtaposing these two scenarios, i am compelled to conclude eitherof the following:
1) that petroleum pipelines are more sacred and important than the lives of Nigerians of Agatu extraction,
2) that while the perpetrators and innocent villagers in Gbaramatu community were made to face the dire consequences of the actions of pipeline vandals/militants, the perpetrators of the Agatu genocide continue to thrive unchallenged and unabated,
3) does security cover only the Boko Haram insurgency to the exclusion of child abduction and forced marriage, kidnapping of innocent school children, genocide in about 7 Agatu villages, robberies and other heinous vices?

I think we should arise to the task of making Nigeria work and shun stagnating primordial tendencies.

If you can't comprehend his intellect, must you show it publicly? What's the derailing in the point he made?
If you think BMB is wasting his time promoting made in Nigeria products you might as well stop wasting your time and energy criticizing him because the #Buynaijatogrowthenaira ideology has come to stay and you can keep complaining for anyone to cares to listen.

Such a weak and Shameless attempt to derail people from the issue. Read through your totally childish comment (filled with fancy and unnecessary grammar) and tell me how you have explained the issue been discussed. You ask everyone to patronize Nigerian items yet something as simple as printing a book you jump on the plane and give it to an American company to do it. Tell me Mr Sabinus how isn't this hypocrisy

Mtcheww!

Your obtuseness is overwhelming.
If you subject his comment to your bias views then you're no different from him who refused to gather knowledge you're meant to gather- that's if you attended any school at all.

Btw stop wasting your creativity disparaging people on public platforms such as this.
rhymesmith:


Sigh!

Lack of intelligence tells on you sir.
If you do not understand the reason why the students see this as a despicable act, then I guess you never went through the University (and even if you did, you refused to gather the knowledge you were meant gather).

And btw, for your information, you have successfully painted Sen. Ben Murray Bruce in a worse light than these poor students have.

Go and learn how to be more creative instead of just looking for cheap publicity with your #NotSoCommonSense post.

Dear Femi
I understand your pain but am sure you just wasted an opportunity to learn something great by this act of public display of folly. Yes you're a student, you not the first neither will you be the last. Casting aspersion on someone who has accomplished so much won't add a point to your GP.
If i were you, I'd be inspired by the event to strive for excellence, so when next i attend events such #BenBruceAt60, my achievements will announce my presence.

Your act here neither portray commonsense
rhymesmith:

Why do we people usually fail to practice what we preach? A person who claims to be an advocate of equality and general COMMON SENSE approach happened to have been the same person who treated the students of the departments of Mass communication and political science, University of Lagos, with so much segregation and disregard. So much for COMMON SENSE. At the 60th birthday and book launch of the Chairman, Silverbird group, Sen. Ben Murray Bruce, this was exactly the case. Besides the fact that our presence was hardly notice and not recognised, we were fed like we came to beg for food, The book, which was promised to the guests didn't even get to us(I'm guessing we weren't categorised as guests), and also, even after the President of the Mass communication department sent a letter to senator Ben to call his attention to the situation, he turned a blind eye. #NotSoCommonSense. The major reason why I attended was that I thought that it will provide me with the opportunity to meet the key players in Nigerian politics, entertainment, business and other fields. How wrong was I? I, Akinseye Oluwafemi of the department of Mass Communication, happened to have been present to witness the appalling and below human treatment given to us students. But we were invited here, I thought. Or did we gate crash? I refuse to be silent on this and I appeal to you also to forward this message until it gets to Sen. Ben, so that he can understand that his actions were #NotSoCommonSense after all.

Dear Abidemi Adesokan,

Sorry about the "perceived discriminating" treatment you got at the #BenBruceAt60 party. Unfortunately the party is meant for people with commonsense and you just proved to the whole world that you're are the wrong guest at the event.

Waitaminute, na only u waka go the party from Unilag? How come only you out of 54 Unilag students in attendance decided to publicly display your folly? I feel sorry for your parents whom you've practically embarrassed, by giving the impression that you are poorly fed.

Lesson: You cannot become great by disparaging a great man. Uncle Ben celebrated his 60 and am sure yours ain't half his - You have a long way to go, humble yourself and learn!

My advice: Tender in person, an apology to Uncle Ben Bruce for this foolish act and pray he pardons you.
You're still a student, strive for excellence and when you do, your accomplishments would naturally announce your presence at any event.

Finally, Receive sense!

Politics / Biafra's Bluff; Nigeria’s Goof by Ndeavour(m): 9:27pm On Dec 07, 2015
BIAFRA'S BLUFF; NIGERIA’S GOOF

Until now, I had decided to steer clear the subject of Biafra. But be it as it may, there comes a time when one should, in the spirit of patriotism, state the obvious and damn the consequences.

I have always believed that BIAFRA is an idea, an ideology which connotes "home" in the mind of an average Igbo man. Biafra is to the Igbo what Zion is to the Israelite. Hence, at the slightest feeling of marginalization, it is commonplace for the Igbos to think of their home - Biafra - which is devoid of perceived injustice meted on them by the Nigerian state.

This idea, Biafra, never existed until 1966. The pogroms which claimed the lives of thousands of Igbos leading to the mass exodus of Southerners from the North, while the government feigned ignorance of the mass murder, led to the birth of the idea-Biafra.
Consequently, efforts to translate this idea into reality resulted in the Nigeria-Biafra Civil War which ended in NO VICTOR NO VANQUISH. The Gowon administration had introduced programs aimed at national integration, how far these programs have succeeded in integrating the nation is left for events of the now to determine.

Since 1970 several groups sprung up to keep the idea of Biafra alive: MASSOB came into prominence at a time the Igbos were been killed in the north, and now, IPOB has resurrected this idea following the perceived neglect of the Igbo in the political scheme of things by the current dispensation. Hence, an indication that the symptoms which conceived the idea of Biafra in the first place persists till date.

I have always believed in the Nigerian project; and I also believed that every group has the right to self-determination. At this point, I’d like to say that secession is not same as civil war. We are in a democracy where respect for fundamental human right is at the heart of governance. But unfortunately, the government of the day perceived the Biafra agitation as an aggression, hence the use of force to intimidate and hound down peaceful protesters. I suppose that the government should be bold enough to conduct a referendum to nail this issue oncee and for all just like the Scottish struggle for independence from Britain has been put to rest by the last Scottish referendum.

The amalgamation of 1914 was an attempt by Britain to accommodate the interest of numerous groups including the Igbos. Consequently, the Igbos have every right to demand for the dissolution of the union, if it feels that It's not working out nor it's interest is not duly accommodated.
French philosopher, Victor Hugo once said "no army can stop an idea whose time has come" and that "one can resist the invasion of armies but not the invasion of ideas". The CHANGE government ought to know that this is a battle of ideas; you can't quell an idea with use of force, you can only suppress an idea with a superior idea.

All through history, no government has ever succeeded is suppressing an idea with the use of force; the anti-apartheid struggle is a model in this regard. The idea of freedom and liberty led to the American Revolution that even the Britain with all its imperial might could not suppress it.
Obviously, IPOB’s mission is to give life to the Biafra struggle and of course the unlawful detention of Mr Nnamdi Kanu and recent killing of Biafra protesters has attracted more sympathizers than Radio Biafra did. Mr Kanu and IPOB are desirous of global attention to the struggle, He knew the Nigerian state would arrest him at any given opportunity; we all can now testify to his arrest and unlawful detention has played in the favour of Mr Kanu and his group. It’s a pity the APC strategists fell for this ploy.

Last year we witnessed the politics surrounding the convening of the National Conference which was expected to address some of the challenges we are currently experiencing. APC's boycott of that confab and subsequent neglect of its report in addition to the President’s body language and utterances clearly puts in doubt the commitment of the APC led Federal government towards sustenance of the unity of the country. Yes the president is under obligation to uphold the constitution and to defend our unity; I however do believe there are other means to defending our unity other than the use of force.

If after 45 years the issue of Biafra still take centre stage in our national discourse, it’s both an indictment on the political class and a clear indication that successive government have failed to live up to the national pledge. Hence we are left with the option of going back to the drawing board to redress the 1914 union, having in mind the purpose of the union, or undo the amalgamation having in mind the consequences for future generation.

Howbeit our collective decisions, the onus of changing the status quo and healing our land is on us- Nigerians - who find our account running under the 21st Century era, but the government of the day has a greater role to play; It must live up to its bidding as the government of CHANGE, so should the utterances and body language of the President reflect his status as father of the nation.

God bless Nigeria the land of my love and liberty.

Politics / The Conspiracy Of The Media And Government - A Personal Opinion by Ndeavour(m): 9:26am On Nov 17, 2015
The silence of the media over the looming fuel scarcity gives credence to the conspiracy of the media and government against the masses.

What has happened to ethical journalism? They kept us awash with Zuckerberg and Facebook's bias handling of the Paris terror incidence. There story kept arguing for and against Facebook action.

Fuel sells for #140 and has remained so for days now, nobody has said nothing.

Two things are involved:
1. It's either the APC and the media have connived to scam the masses, using propaganda to play with our intelligence or

2. PDP is to lame to understand that capitalizing on the loopholes cum administrative blunders of the current dispensation is the major currency used in the opposition economy.

If PDP must turn the tides in there favour then it must align it's opposition politics with the psychological mood of the masses.

I have come to the realization that the political decisions of Nigerians are tied to their psychological mood. And information is a perfect modulator of this mood.

Before now the APC merchandised the media houses to do its bidding, they manufactured a hocus-pocus which they labelled CHANGE and succeeded in selling us the right dosage for our mood. The effectiveness of the dosage reflected in the last general election.

Now that it seems the effectiveness of the drug is waning faster than they anticipated, they and the media are trying to keep us busy with some hogwash about Zuckerberg, Facebook and Paris. Smh

Paris, Facebook and Zuckerberg have their problems fine, Nigerians are paying through their nose to buy fuel and that's a bigger problem. If this is what APC intends for us the #Wailingcontinues.

Yea the building looks awesomely great. Though money well made should be well spent, I however do believe that if you make all the money you can to satisfy your wants you're still poor because man's wants are insatiable. I can imagine how many lives N500 million or so can transform in Nigeria. But its lavished on a building which depreciates in value of time and we sure would live someday. Posterity celebrates only those who have touched lives of many and not those who live in mansions.
