The Interfax and RIA news agencies reported that at least 50 people had been injured. Interfax said one of the blasts may have involved a device filled with shrapnel.
President Putin was in St Petersburg earlier on Monday but is now outside the city, his spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
"I have already spoken to the head of our special services, they are working to ascertain the cause," he said, at a meeting with Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko.
Moscow metro officials said they were introducing extra security measures as a result.
Tekhnologichesky Institut serves metro lines one and two, with the first hall opening in 1955, followed by the second in 1961.
Sennaya Ploschad - the next station along metro line two - opened two years later, in 1963.

Nope, not at all, but you might need to check yourself.. As you can see you are well outnumbered in your own thread. Nobody seems to buy into your repulsive bigoted intolerant mentality.

We talk of freedom everyday yet we want to deny people of their freedom to make their own choice. Are you from the ward where the man is contesting?... I'm sure you arent. So why dont you allow people of the ward their freedom to democratically elect whoever they like?

You do not counter foolish deeds with foolish deeds; that is foolishness too.

I thought they said Igbos hate other tribe, Just look at how The op was Rebuked by his own kinsmen, this goes to show that most thing written about some tribe ain't True.

OP go play with your toys, it's obvious you are still a kid.

omenkaLives:
Shut up. You are a disgrace. Your plans to use this thread to promote hate has been totally defeated. Shame on you.

Mathemagician1:


Please don't insult Ndi-Igbo with your primordial sentiment. Ndi-Igbo are not known for tolerating injustice and as far as we are concerned, the Hausa man has every right to contest as councillor just like any other Igbo man in Ala-Igbo. If he's popular enough and if the people finds him credible enough he will be elected and will surely claim his mandate.

You are not more Igbo than all of us here so don't insult us. Let the Hausa man be biko.

softmind24:
Even if this man fail to win the main election he has made a bold statement








We are watching the way the IGBOS would handle this and use it as reference in the future election here UP NORTH

azaino:


and who are you to tell the voters who to vote for? telling them not to vote for him is called what ? love I guess. biko stop joor, if the a.boki is a good man and the people love him, your small hate won't change nothing.

#proudlyIGBO

Amoto94:
The OP must be from a state other than Imo, Enugu, Abia, and Ebonyi. According to the constitution of the FRN he's eligible to contest and be voted for so shove your advice. You don't speak for the majority of Igbos and Ebonyi people.

DaBullIT:
First of all

The European Union is a politico-economic union of 28 member states that are located primarily in Europe.

Those are the countries that have evolved beyond personal interest, greed and too much corruption

Africans are still africans

and UK did not separate so amalgamation stands

Biafra is dead and buried. We will resist secession by any groups with the best weapons in the Nigerian armory. To keep Nigeria one is a task that must be done. No group of terrorist groups like IPOB, Avengers and massob will be allowed to destabilize our great nation. Lord luggard saw the potentials in our diversity before merging us together with the north. We shall remain with the north to build this country. It's a decision we have taken in the south west and one of the reasons the igbos will never go anywhere. Nnamdi kanu is in deep shiitt for preaching hate against the state. He will be lucky to get a life imprisonment. How can igbos demand biafra when they are the most traveled tribe and more Nigerian than other tribes? They are virtually in every part of thr country doing business and benefitting from the nation's unity. No sane igbo man will even think of secession because they gain alot in this union. Concerning political power the north will keep dominating because the British handed power to them before leaving. The igbos need to work with other parts of the country to produce president. Not by blackmail or demanding seccession. Biafra will never come in Jesus name

Any earlier study in America showed igbos and ibibios were genetically related. Even wen u see them, u don't need to be told as they share similar features.

They have done their Ibadan study. It is not only 99.9, it is 100% yorubas are igbos. desperados!
