332 Arty regt Shendam, 34 Arty bde, Obinze. Barrack boy for life

I was on my way to work this morning when I saw posters of young Igbo men contesting councilorship positions here in Jos. I just smiled. If I had the chance I'll vote for them. If anything the Igbos have only contributed largely to the growth and development of the state. In one of the local governments here they drag population with the indigenes but not once has there been any social or political crisis between them.
I think those fighting them in lagos are simply battling their own personal insecurities. Cos how can you sell land to somebody and then go out in public and cry fowl, that that person has stolen your land?

Kenobsky:
The only thing I like of those of yesterday was that they make military value more cohesive.
Not like this small soldiers doing tiktok challenge with bandits inside bush.
I was born and raised in the barracks I love the yesterday soldiers because they have respect and protect their uniforms with integrity

Exactly. Any barrack boys born in the 90s would testify to how different soldiers back then were built. They moved different. In my opinion the last wave of those breed are 79Na and 90NA.

iLoveYouToo:
This is a weird question, what's there to admire or be fascinated about? They had guns and controlled armies, who couldn't do what they did given all they had at their disposal?

Easy to say. Fill their shoes and you'll know what is really up

.

My Uncle's wife bought new yam today somewhere here In Plateau close to Jos. 6 big tubers for N1,200! As in One thousand, two hundred. I was shocked like this. Definitely giving her money to buy when she goes there next week. Make person breathe small abeg. And That's not to say that Tinubu has anything to do with it. The community just happen to have abundant supply from their farms

And I been dey plan my movement to Azare...omo wahalurr

DUNDEEmoderatos:

But dem dey everywhere on line dey brag say na only Yorubas dey suffer because na dem vote Tinubu.

Na mouth. When I left Imo state few days before the election there was already shege there. Cost of living was already something else. Now I talk to my friends and the update I get just no sweet for ear at all. Businesses are really suffering. Lockdown no dey even help matters

DUNDEEmoderatos:

All na pretence to create impressions that they are not suffering. The reason the can never be trusted.

Baba the suffering for that east dey unbearable. Everywhere quiet cos of the fear of UGM, no any other reason

TrackerSK:
Tinubu is a curse.I don't expect any president to be worst than buhari

Never liked the man but I thought he was a lesser evil to deal with. Never knew buhari only warmed the seat for him. Tinubu na bastard

thanks for this write up vsir

You're welcome

Some of my Igbos neighbor here argued it with me intensely also, they have given up on their people in the East and even want to run from Nigeria

I’m trying to so hard not to believe Igbos will sell their people but it seem I’m the only one that hasn’t come to terms with reality, I thought they were different

If you've lived in the east well enough you'll know human beings are human beings regardless of ethnic affiliations. I can't even recall some if my experiences in imo state cos of how crazy it was. At the end of the day, for the right price, they'll turn their fatherland into a jungle

Leemzyy:
What is that stuff?

You'd have to be really young to not know this 😃. It's a universal charger( or so we call it). It has 2 pins to which you'd connect your phone's battery terminal. Once connected a red light will appear. When plugged into a socket the red light will go disco alternating between red, blue and green. When your battery gets full the light goes green. Shikenan. Battery Don full. But it takes longer than normal sha. Like a 2 hour charge duration can take 6 hours with this charger. Chai...Those days sha😄

Even after claiming responsibility for the attack Nigeria government and it medias will ignore him and be accusing innocent peaceful Ipob and ESN for killings.




Simple because the criminal in Finland is working for evil apc government to destroy ipob and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
(1))To make international communities to see ipob as violent group and start hunting them because they can't Stop them from here in Nigeria, ipob leadership operate from abroad.

Cut the head of the snake game.

(2)To make our people hate anything related to to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and ipob.


But Ipob leadership was wise to disassociate themselves and ipob from the criminal activities of an apc criminal agent in Finland.

The game failed since.

Today Ipob still holds meetings and protests all over the world because civilized people supports their course for self determination.


Nigeria government sacrificing their security men just to stop ipob instead of doing the right thing.



God bless Ipob members worldwide.

God bless ipob leadership for remaining resolute in their peaceful approach, Because what evil Nigeria government wanted is Ipob to go to war, just like Hamas and they will have the support of their West masters to destroy Biafra land.

God bless Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, The Ohamadike


God bless ESN for their sacrifice in guarding our farmers and our farm lands, Which made it possible for our people to cultivate.


God bless all lovers of Freedom

This is a sensible submission right here. This Ekpa guy is the worst thing to happen to the Biafran struggle. I remember countering one useless guy here on nairaland who was praising this evil guy's actions and the guy abused me. I then told him that may the fate of all those who fell victim to Ekpa's antics visit him and his family. The guy never responded.
They claim to be fighting for their people but are still the ones putting their fellow brothers and sisters in untold hardship. Meanwhile the people they claim to be fighting against are in a far away region of the country living their lives without glitches. I don talk tire . Nothing concern me again. Thank God I do leave
Owerri

AbaganaMiracle:


Mumu, what's going at Owerri has nothing to do with your cessput useless protest. It is about evicting your terrorists in police and army uniforms from Biafraland which was an order from Prime Minister and Biafran government.
What you are witnessing today at Owerri is part of the war of eviction of terrorists from our land Biafra. You can kpai if you don't like it, but fact remains that every terrorists are not welcomed anywhere in Biafraland.

Me I did not see any terrorist there o. I only saw them putting fear in the hearts of their fellow igbos and destroying their sources of livelihood.

Anybody that thinks Igbo people are truly behind this must also think Pigs can fly

Something smells fishy but at the end of the day, yes, igbo people are behind this. It's simple. The east has been a bit unstable in recent years. APC want to use that as leverage to prevent the people from coming out to protest. They contact the Ndigbo on their payroll to do something. Their Ndigbo people contact hoodlums to do their thing. Shikenan. Now tomorrow go reach but people go fear to commot

D3rd:


I knew someone with a mindset like this would mention.

Well, for starters I cannot see anywhere in my write up where the guy's or any other group's intelligence was called into question.

My only concern is, English being our language of instruction and official language, it is only proper and normal that someone with at least a secondary education should be able to express his or herself without having to sound like a dunce.

Until our national budget is passed in Hausa, your car manual in Yoruba or your next reply comes in Efik, we must all learn to speak English properly and communicate seamlessly with it.

Like I submitted earlier, the worst English speakers in Nigeria are the Notherners and to some extent, Yorubas. Mostly Kwarans.

Are you aware that the children of lots of wealthy northerners never schooled In Nigeria? The guy I mentioned did all his schooling in Egypt, only came back home during the holidays. We got to meet during his undergrad and like most I thought he was uneducated until I got to know him better.
I worked at a private school dominated by Muslims from Northern and western extraction. I'm talking about 99.9%. These kids couldn't string a correct sentence to save their lives. But most of them could read and write Arabic. One of the boys even taught me a little back then. Most of those kids spoke languages and I'd tell you it takes some level of intelligence and dedication to learn a new language. One thing I'll never do is judge a person's intelligence or level of education by his ability to speak English.

D3rd:
Hmmm

What kind of education are the northerners getting by the way

A whole "son of a governor" cannot string a complete sentence

You definitely did not kill anyone at a night club but you have killed me with your distasteful English!!!

Chai!!!

How does proficiency in the English language correlate with intelligence abeg? Cos if it does then everyone in the UK is intelligent. I know a guy from a Kano royal family who finds it hard to string an English sentence. Yet with all my English I can't compete with this guy at all. He speaks Hausa which is his native tongue, Arabic, Russian and English. He's most fluent in Arabic. Has an Msc from the University of Cairo. So abeg tell me how English take be measure of one's intelligence

DeeScan:
Make Dem show us pictures of the dog na ..

I dey suspect ekuke sha .. Nigerians too dey disrespect that breed..

Is the grandma the real owner of the dog??

Ekuke never does this kind of stuff. It's usually the foreign breeds

LocalFARMERS:


Yes it looks different. It is bigger, redish, with few white stripes

The oil in this groundnut no be here

I don't support violence on civilians in any way but to be honest soldiers also face situations with civilians that if not acted upon promptly might lead to the end of their life. During endsars a soldiers I know got killed by civilians because he tried to be civil with them. They snatched his gun and shot him dead. Another soldier had to act promptly during a mild crisis in a community in imo state. Boys were all charged up and the soldiers came to settle them down. In the process one of the boys who thought he was immortal started walking towards one of the soldiers menacingly. Baba offed him right there. He faced disciplinary actions sha but at the end of the day he did what was necessary to preserve his life.

The matters sha dey complicated. May God help us

And I read online it is possible but rare.

My fingerprint also opens my dad's phone. How? I simply registered my fingerprint in his phone. He only knows that I open his phone whenever I want but he doesnt bother to know how. I think your daughter did same thing

RighteousDemon:


Yes… She’s making rapid progress already in this Nigerian army.

Nothing is guaranteed in the army. Any soldier or barrack boy who reads this will understand

RighteousDemon:

Only death can stop her from being a General

In this Nigerian army? Hahahaaaa...you have no idea.

AntiChristian:
Islam forbids begging as the main source of income!

So i may give them food but will never encourage them in begging!

Begging is permitted only when someone is stricken by poverty or calamity or where one is indebted when trying to reconcile two people!



I once saw beggars sorting/counting their beggings after they finished praying in the mosque!
Even you wey dey work fit no make such cash per hour!

In all, don't abuse them! If you have something to spare give!
If you don't have just mind your business!

And if you detect fraud report them!

You said Islam doesn't support begging but why do Islamic leaders turn a blind eye to this act? Infact some perpetuate this act of begging. There's a mosque I usually pass by in bauchi. In the morning these boys gathers there with their plates ànd all, all geared up for the day. An elderly man addresses them before they set out. I just shake my head. Would it be difficult for a Muslim, who's ready to give a Christian man the whole world just so he can convert to his religion, to take these kids off these streets? Enroll them in a trade school, have them use their God given talents for something. It's really pathetic to be honest. At a traffic stop I once saw a boy begging. Next to him was another with a bunch of facemasks in his hands selling. Just pathetic to be honest

I wish all Nigerians would unite in one voice and protest against the injustices of this government.

U see that unity? E go hard for us. Endsars gave me hope before but it didn't take long before o realised that the north shall always remain what it is. I remember one argument we had with a guy in nysc camp then. Na my guy but na small thing remain I for punch am for ear. The north only cares when they're subjected to isolated persecution. But you see anything like bad government wey affect everybody? Dem no go ever make noise simply. Na to play tribal and religious politics dem sabi.

His underlying medical condition may have been triggered by the prospect of facing the committee panel. Omo I remember when I took up a Job sometime ago. This person stressed the hell out of me until I started having serious heart burn for no reason. The day I dropped that job and returned the balance I slept like a baby and bade my goodbyes to BP spikes.

RevenuesBoost:




You're very right
I visited the bread bakery close to my house and discovered that they make use of cassava flour and wheat flour in a specific ratio.
I can't really remember the ratio.

The man in charge of the Bakery said, Cassava flour is costly as well as wheat flour.
I was shocked, I could relate
We are the owners of cassava but don't know that we can process our cassava to flour, it's only Garri and fufu that my village people know.
Cross River Government don't know how to establish cassava flour processing industries that will be of benefit to Cross Riverians.

Youŕe right. Even though cassava is produced in the south south and south east more than any other region, its range of functionality over there is very limited.
I lived in the East for some years and I remember the strange look on market women's faces each time I tell them I'm looking for cassava flour. The few who know will ask what I want to do with it. Telling them I want to make swallow with it will only draw looks of surprise. Very few people know about it. However in the north and Middle belt it is a very popular meal. Northerners use cassava flour or Alibo as its popularly known a lot for pastries and other things. They even use cassava to make Akara popularly known as 'kosain rogo'. The meal is popular amongst market women and children.

I bought 2 mudu of rice, 1 mudu of beans and 4kg of gas yesterday. Naso 11k take go. Sometimes it's even hard to say "God help us" because God did not force the gullible people who elected this slowpoke into power. Na we use our hand run this one

Why is Ugochukwu recruited in 1994 still a sergeant with Bala recruited in 2003? 9 years gap same rank! Many cases are there in both the commissioned and non commissioned officers

Growing up where I did there were more low ranking 'senior' soldiers from the northern extraction than any other region. This has nothing to do with tribe or religion. My Pop's coursemate, a fulani man, was still a corporal when my father became a Master Warrant Officer. There are many factors here. Soldiers can be demoted as a disciplinary measure, some may not be able to scale the minimum course requirements for promotion, some may have personal beef with their commanding officer, some may belong to corps that hardly see the light of promotion in due time( same in the US military where the marines are always lagging behind In terms of promotion), e.t.c. like I said I has nothing to do with tribe. That's just how the military is.
