Onlytruth: This is the lie I'm pointing out to him and he would not desist from telling them.nwanu, since you are lazy, read the text at the bottom of this page : No sales of alcoholic beverages are legal ANYWHERE in the county I hope you know the meaning of the red text below. I bet you people have never been to a dry county in the USA, you may have encountered dry zones within cities which are more common. Onlytruth: I hope you realize that the Nigerian jurisprudence is also based -in the main -on Common law (except the Sharia North of course), which derive from the Anglo-American jurisprudence.You lost your point and are now shamelessly attempting to change the topic to your favourite one, separation. No dice buddy. ![]() |
DerideGull: I can not believe how some people throw silly analogies around in Nigeria. Counties are not States. Counties are local government entities. It is a perilous act to the principles of democracy for state government such as Kano to throw a blanket ban on sales of alcoholic beverages in the state. The government of Kano State should have allowed the ban on local government levels.Oga, at some point you people will have to decide whether you want to be law abiding or not. If you are a host in a city, locality, or state, abide by their laws, as long as the laws are not unconstitutional. shi kena As far as your statement about "Dry Counties", the sale of alchohol is illegal anywhere in those counties, private clubs will not have any license to sell alchoholic beverages even to their members. You people are ignorant of the laws of your own localities, yet you are whining about kano, thousands of miles away from you all. Okwute angry and cheated Anambrarians, piafuka gi ........ ![]() |
Onlytruth: I told you to stop lying against the US; I don't like it.What is your obsession with religion? As I told you before i did not memtion religion in my posts, you are the one introducing it here. As I stated, the fact remains that local ordinances which do not go against the state or federal constitution, ban the sale of alchohol in certain localities in the USA. If you are bursted with bottles of alchohol slated for sale, you'll be fined and your bottles of alchohol destroyed. The ordinances you people violated in Kano are 100% not opposed to the Nigerian constitution. For your information, the laws and or ordinances of the USA can all be traced to Christian laws beginning with the 10 commandments. As an example, American jurisprudence as contract and tort law are structured along the lines closely parallel to the concepts found in Exodus 21:18 through 22:17. I don't have time to educate you this evening, go and read up. |
Onlytruth: Here you go again. You are beginning to lie against the US now, and I'm not happy about that.You are dumber than I thought. I am suprised that you don't know that in whole counties (not just municipalities) in the USA where you claim to reside, no sales of alcoholic beverages are legal anywhere in those counties. In Texas alone, no sale of alchoholic beverages are legal in the following counties : 1. Bailey 2. Borden 3. Collingsworth 4. Delta 5. Hemphill 6. Kent 7. Martin 8. Parmer 9. Roberts 10. Sterling 11. Throckmorton mumu, are you sure you do not reside in the bushes of the SE Nigeria but claim to reside in the USA? Onlytruth: The fact that a politician -who is clearly serving his personal agenda and feathering his own nest- is from my side of Nigeria, changes nothing concerning the fact that the masses of Nigerians from different parts of Nigeria are seeking DIFFERENT destinies for themselves:You people will use any excuse to avoid participating in the democratic process. Ekwueremadu does not have 2 heads and is a Nigerian like you, stop whining and take the bull by the horns participate!!. |
[quote author=Sam_Ikenna]Where is the religious "dry zone" in the US - please be specific. Hopefully you're not about to show us a school zone.[/quote]I know you are not a learner, but why are you asking about religious dry zone, did I mention 'religion' in my post? The fact remains that local ordinances which do not go against the state or federal constitution, ban the sale of alchohol in certain localities in the USA. If you are bursted with bottles of alchohol slated for sale, you'll be fined and your bottles of alchohol destroyed. This is no different from what happened in Kano. The bottom line is, you people violated local ordinances, which are not opposed to our constitution, and your beer bottles were destroyed. shi kena. Onlytruth: So, I take it that you believe that Sharia law is not opposed to the tenets or the spirit of the Nigerian constitution.Don't be lazy, go and read our constitution and stop asking dumb questions. There is an ongoing constitutional review process and a national conference process, where you can use all your resources to make necessary changes if you are unhappy with the constitution. Your brother Sen Ike Ekweremadu is the Chairman of the review committee, work with him to make a change instead of whining here. dolo |
Ojuyobo is on track to becoming the John D. Rockefeller or the Andrew Carnegie of Nigeria, he is certainly royalty. Tinubu is the Agba-Akin Adinni of Ijeshaland, the Chief Anosare Bugije of Ondo Kingdom, the Erelu Aare Ago of Egbaland, the Asiwaju of Lagos and the jagaban Borgu!! ![]() He is still working on cleansing the stains from his youthful exuberance. |
The Y'ooba vs Ibo imbroglio continues unabated. una no dey tire? The only words which are yet to be used on this thread are Yamiri and off'emmanu. |
DerideGull: Only a malnourished fool will even pay a mind to crap such as “the unity and sovereignty of Nigeria is absolutely, completely and irrevocably non-negotiable”. It is safe to say that those who believed in such a tosh have analytical skills of a toddler. The essence of insinuating that Diasporas should attempt to inject sanity into the polity of a country known as Nigeria is akin to pouring water on a stone in order to soften it.I don't think you want to bring malnourishment, a tool used by you people along with Awo, to perpetrate your criminal war. That's in the past and the hatchets have been buried, stop this impotent threats of yours. Indeed any threat to the unity and sovereignty of Nigeria will be resisted with full force, just as any sane country will defend its integrity. The only arena which loudmouths like you have is NL, so go ahead and vent, but I warn you again that if you bring your nonsense into the shores of this great country, you will be dealt with by your very own people severely. @Sam_Ikenna, If you are welcome into a state as a guest, you must learn to abide by the state and local laws, which are not opposed to the constitution. Even in the USA where you live, there are certain places (called dry zones) where the selling of alchoholic beverages are banned. If you are caught with bottles of beer for sale, they will be confiscated and destroyed, so what is your point? |
ikwere militant: hes loud mouthed while ur uncle shekarau of boko unitd is cool headed.atleast one is more reasonable than d odar.This is not about you, me, shekau, or anyone else but the thug Asari. You should be bright enough to understand that. |
Asari-Dokubo who spoke through the South East/North Central Coordinator of Niger Delta People’s Volunteers Force, Mr. Emmanuel Amakiri in Abuja, accused enemies of the present administration for his current travail and incarceration by Beninoise gendarmes.The loudmouth noisemaker decides to keep mum about his "current travail and incarceration" and runs away from accepting responsibility by blaming nameless enemies of the present administration for his arrest. Why is the coward running away from Benin Republic now. ![]() |
But he did not tell us why he was arrested and being "deported" from Republic of Benin. He also forgot to thank GEJ for bailing him out. This thug and his gang truly belong in jail. The leader of Niger Delta people’s Volunteers Force, NDPVF, Alhaji Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, Friday, debunked reports that he was flown into Abuja aboard presidential jet shortly after his release by the Beninoise gendarmes, saying he was still in Cotonou, the capital of Benin Republic. |
[quote author=isale_gan2]Interesting.[/quote]Indeed. We now know why. |
Fot your information, Oshiomole was born Muslim but was led to Christianity by his late wife Clara, so what's the big deal? |
hmmm, Ewesho o, Potential we mu Garri state. ![]() |
DerideGull: If you studiously believed, which I doubt very seriously, that it is impossible to morally justify any war as far as you are concerned, one wonders what holds you back from jumping on Gowon’s throat for precipitating a war against people who just wanted out of the cesspit called Nigeria.While you are at it, why not ask me why I am yet to jump on Ojukwu's thraot for forcing the hands of Gowon into a war? Let this be the last time you call your dear country a cesspit! What is wrong with you?? Are you insinuating that Owerri, Onitcha, Aba, Lagos, and other beautiful cities in Nigeria are cesspits? Don't get me started with you tonight. |
[quote author=Sam_Ikenna]For the fella who said confederation and regionalism is retrogressive, hope you go through ndu_chuks posts and see how shallow your argument is.[/quote]Sorry Sam_Ikenna, I thought your post was referring to my arguments as being shallow, but I reread your post and found otherwise. I've edited this post, [s] Ah ah, nwanne m, kedu ka kpo m shallow? You could not survive defeat through superior logic on the other thread and have resorted to looking for cheer leaders by resurecting a 2 year old thread? ![]() What happened to you Sam_Ikenna, stop behaving like your Eze Onlylies, this is not befitting at all. Our people talk say Eji isi aro ama uto nsi (You know the taste of faeces by the smell of fart), the reopening of this thread smacks of undue influence of Eze NL on you. Abi this Sam_Ikenna is hiding meat under his tongue ni? If your post was not meant to poke fun at me, then no worries. ![]() [/s] |
DerideGull: Only a malnourished fool will even pay a mind to crap such as “the unity and sovereignty of Nigeria is absolutely, completely and irrevocably non-negotiable”. It is safe to say that those who believed in such a tosh have analytical skills of a toddler. The essence of insinuating that Diasporas should attempt to inject sanity into the polity of a country known as Nigeria is akin to pouring water on a stone in order to soften it.This is what happens when people refuse proper training and don't pay attention when it counts. You should have listened to your lectures in Zaria when the topic of gracefully accepting defeat was discussed. Since you have chosen to remain stubborn, I challenge you and your leaders to declare a state of biafra, and announce your secession from Nigeria, right away. Let me warn you that your presence would be needed in Nigeria if you were to do that. If you have the guts to show up, one thing is certain, GEJ, Obi, Okorosha, Bianca Ojukwu, and the rest of your leaders will be waiting for you, handcuffs in hand. ![]() |
DerideGull: Sometimes, I tend to wonder where you left your thinking hat and marvel at certain logics you proffer. If someone is fed up with the crap called Nigeria and you are not, is it not normal for those who are outwardly fed up with the project to bail out?Let me quote one of the respondents on this thread: "The unity and sovereignty of Nigeria is absolutely, completely and irrevocably non-negotiable. The sooner you disgruntled elements in the Diaspora get this very salient point the more usefully you would be able to make effective contributions to the polity." Get this through your thick and stubborn skull. The truth of the matter which you refuse to accept is that, Nigerians who hold your views regarding 'bailing out of the project' are in the minority. Even within the SE, this view is not shared by most people including your leaders. You belong to fringe groups which cannot influence the polity of this country. Even in the country you reside, there are fringe groups who, to this day want to seceed from the USA. We all know what will happen to their aggitations. Biafra war was lost 50 years ago, its time to finally accept defeat and come back and build this nation. |
Desola: The girl wey do eyes like say she narrowly missed Down's syndrome?Ah Ah, elenu razor! www.nairaland.com/attachments/180447_ROTFLMAO_gif3d0c775232c7f27cf80592785b9635b6 |
I hope the 5000 people shortlisted for the 10 openings are not required to pay N1,000 application fee each, which would result to N5million in the coffers of the usual suspects. How can any sane person shorlist 5000 people for 10 openings? barawo banza. |
^^^ I just read some of your posts on NL and all I feel for you is sincere pity. May God punish whoever did this to you. |
tensor777: Actually I don't think regionalism is the way to go.Beleve it or not, I wholeheartedly agree with the fact that myopic leadership in many states is the real problem. That is one of the main reasons why I disagree with disintegraton which, by the way, will keep the same people and leaders in place. I do think that there is too much power in the center and the current resource control arrangement is unacceptable. If we have 3-6 regions or states with 100% resource control of inland resources with the Feds maintaining control of offshore resorces and the ports, we should be better off. Mind you, nothing will work to 100% satisfaction until the leadership problem you mentioned is adressed. [quote author=Sam_Ikenna]You're right, no one wants another civil war. We lost 20% of our population in the first one and that's enough to make any sane person lose faith in this project that claims it wants us. And to see that, even as we speak, the same kind of violent provocation is going on in the core north today with fellow Nigerians bellowing in the air and rising as smoke is depressing. Its depressing to me yet you preach that I should help change it when you haven't been able to rein in on your brothers to stop the carnage - a carnage that started in 1945. If you can't stop the carnage who will? I'm fed up buddy. Its time for us to pursue our individual interests. If yours is One-Nigeria then good luck.[/quote]The difference between you and several other millions of Nigerians is that you are fed up but they are not. We believe that we must join forces, minds, and resources to jointly solve out problems. As far as the BH issue is concerned, you need to review Azazi's statements about who is behind BH, while you are at it, do not forget that the President himself stated that there are BH members in his government and that he would expose them - we have been waiting for him to keep his word for almost a year now. The BH issue is much more complicated than what you call a "provocation by the North". Pukkah: Honestly, I hated the condescending, haughty and abusive manner you entered the thread. Anyone who respects others and their opinions won't say all such to a group of people.I don't know what issues I've ignored, please point them out. I simply disagree with the view that disintegration will solve Nigeria's problems. You accuse me of being condescending, yet you make a very negative and condescending generalization about Nigeria, in your last sentence above. When people respond to you in kind, then you start crying foul and threatening to ignore them. If you want respect, you must respect others as well. |
[quote author=Sam_Ikenna]ndu, give it a rest buddy. We're sane human beings so we know what we want. If you split the nation today South West will have a nation that, at its core, has a Yoruba outlook, national ideology, cultural similarity, and a blend of Yoruba/British/American government and educational system - I could be wrong for the simple fact that I'm not one of them. I don't assume to know what their system will look like unlike One-Nigerianists that assume to know what everyone wants. As for Umuigbo ndi m n'eji eme onu, we know what we want which is a system of egbe bere ugo bere, a system of onye ahala nwanne ya, and a system of onye hu uzo oma ya zi nwanne ya. We shall blend our traditional democracy, values, and ideals with what I call reciprocatary foreign policy and anchor it in an export oriented economy. We shall have no business with wahabi or any extremist religion or cult. And any of our citizens that ventures into lands known to be religious hotbeds do so at his/her own peril. Our education shall not be free. It shall be paid for by responsible parents - so no free lunch for men and women who do not want to get some sleep at night. Lest I forget - no quota system and no unity cut-off sham. You either make the grade or look for a trade. Did I forget that we will put an end to this - Igbo shall not be president, I am born to rule, we shall dip the koran into the ocean, and other nonsensical utterances that I hear everyday. Most importantly, we shall not be threatened again with pogrom or genocide neither shall we be part of OIC and its derivatives. I want a pure secular country where no special laws apply. I want to live my life without insulting other people's sensibilities neither do I want them to insult mine. I don't have to be nervous for my brothers when a mere cartoon is drawn in far away Denmark or when some loses an election. We shall put an end to this NYSC idiocy that has been taken the lives our well trained and bright youngsters. Ndu, those and more are what I will enjoy in a free Igbo nation, tell me what yours will be - I'm interested.[/quote]I'm afraid that most Nigerians do not share your views above, and no serious group is suggesting spliting the country within the constitutional review process or the national conference process. I agree with you that the status quo is unacceptable, but I believe that a step towards 3 - 6 regions or states, is safer and would be less bloody. No one wants to fight the civil war all over again, or start new wars which could kill millions more Nigerians. |
shymexx: You asked question and I answered them. However, rather than debate the answers I posted logically, you turned into a rabid dog with simplistic and incoherent rebuttals laced with ad hominem attacks.I went back over the post which bent you out of shape and found only one word which could be classified as objectionable - i.e. the word "shatap". I did not realize that emotional IQ is an issue and thought you could absorb it. I have changed "shatap" to "move on" and hope it'll make you sleep better. My suggestion to you is to be respectful when you make negative generalizations about Nigeria or Nigerians because some of us do not take kindly to such hate speech. Devote your energy into finding ingenius solutions to some of the Nigerian problems you get so emotional about, and you may surprise yourself with real solutions which could be submitted to the authorities, or even implemented by you - don't sell yourself short. |
shymexx: @ndu_chucksWonders shall never end, here is a boy who calls Nigerians foolish, senseless, and dumb, accusing someone else of being condescending. You get bent out of shape when confronted with the bitter truth. Your name calling has zero effect and my points have been made, deal with it. |
Boll2010: ******I'm AS COLD AS THE RUSSIAN WINTER NOW......I CHANGE MY IDEOLOGY ABOUT tHE ONE NIGERIA BUT I DESIST VIOLENCE.*******Some people are telling you not to expect sensible responses to your questions because they believe that opinions which differ from theirs are not sensible and are inferior - I think you should ignore such small minds. I share your very reasonable concerns but I disagree that our problems are due to high population. The federal allocation to some states is much more than many countries' GDPs, yet these states are not developed. I think the main problem with us, especially those abroad, is laziness and selfishness. We need people like you who have been to the other side to come home and show us how things should be done and participate fully in the developnment of this country. You cannot split the country up and repopulate the new 'countries' with people other than Nigerians. Think about it. |
(1) There's no democracy in Nigeria. Democracy is government for the people by the people based on principles of social equality and respect for the individuals within a community and it's ideological. Not government based on tribal affiliation and domination.It is safe to say that the government of the USA is one which people use as an example of a democracy. If we go by the definition above, then the USA is not a democracy. Government for the people by the people based on principles of social equality is a non existent ideal, even in the USA. What is practiced in the USA is admitedly close to it. The delusions of many of you diaspora slaves includes believing that you will ever be treated equally where you live. We have moved from millitary governments to what we have today and we will continue to move towards democratic ideals, with or without you people. (2) This is the enlightenment age and like Albert Einstein said, "Insanity is when you keep doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result." My grandfather tried, it never worked. My father tried, still the same result. I'm not insane, so I want to try a different approach, so as to achieve a different result.Every fool knows that our system in Nigeria needs improvement and that is why we have the on going constitutional amendment process, and the national conference. What is stopping you and your friends from contributing? It is not enough to come to nairaland and make noise, its time for you to act or move on! (3) The same form of government isn't applicable to Nigeria due to divided interests. The Northerners are feudalists. Easterners are republicans/conservatives. And the Westerners are democrats albeit still believe in monarchy. The inability to galvanise these three orientations within the Nigerian context for a common goal is why the country is messed up. It's just not possible because they will always be at loggerheads.We will end up designing a system which works in our unique situation. What are you going to contribute towards our success. You are not oyibo, you will never be one. Stay with your Oyibo people and espouse their ideals and butt out of our problems if you cannot become part of the solution. |
DerideGull: It is unfortunate a poster of your caliber has chosen this cyber medium to spew crap about visionary Diasporas who had contributed immensely to see the cesspit called Nigeria grow.Since your idea of vision is calling your country a cesspit and calling for total disintegration without any thought on what your new 'country' will resemble and whether such disintegration would lead to multiple wars and loss of unnecessary lives, then I am a visionless Nigerian, while you people are visionary diasporans. |
Onlytruth: This thread has thrown up some of the funniest sh&*%t I've read in ages on this site.When are and you and your cohorts going to start working for the betterment of your motherland? Winston Churchil did not become a great Brit by living in diaspora while bad mouthing his country, Abraham Lincoln became great from within America. Nwanne m, nobody will 'fix' Nigeria for you. Your disintegration solution is dead on arrival. |
tensor777: But there will never ever be, nor could there ever be such a disintegration. The unity and sovereignty of Nigeria is absolutely, completely and irrevocably non-negotiable.Thank you for this post. 100 Gbosas. |
^^^ They run away and go into hiding when they've been confronted with realities which go against the grain of their condescending attitudes. Pretending to be asleep ko, pretending to be enslaved in diaspora ni. |
[quote author=Sam_Ikenna]ndu nwanne, you're good at flipping the script. Ride on bro, but I will not like to change or derail the debate by swerving towards you. I will keep it straight ok. I believe you read most of the posts before you went on One-Nigeria overdrive so don't be sleek with me. You know the questions, answer them.[/quote]So you are running away from my questions because of the lame excuse you just provided, ko? Issokay I still don't know the particular questions you want me to answer, I did not read every post here for obvious reasons. I promise to answer any of your questions to the best of my ability, as long as you answer mine as well. You are not a chicken, that I am 100% certain about. |
