Igboid:
Let it be known that just as the Igbo are the most advanced black race in terms of metallurgy in the area called Nigeria in precolonial era, so were we in clothing weaving.

Akwete became the most famous cloth weaving centre in Igboland, just like Awka became the most black smiths, but as a matter of fact, there were hundreds of cloth weaving centres scattered all over Igbo interior in precolonial area, and the quality and quantity of their products were unmatched by those from elsewhere.

Awka metal workers were in high demand even outside Igbo land. The Benin kingdom's demand for their high quality weapons made many of them very rich

Lol @ Bourdillon mongrels

I personally know two people whose family members were kidnapped in the east this Xmas holiday by these same people

ACF did not say pim when herdsmen massacred scores of villagers in Enugu State but banning cows in the east is what they see as war https://www.sunnewsonline.com/how-we-survived-nimbo-massacre-2/

RuudVan:
Every negative vice from endemic corruption, ritual killing and abuse of power is prevalent. While we lay the blame today on the Saraki's, Peter Obi's, Tinubu's, Atiku's, Ibori's, El-Rufai's, Odili's, Alaibe's,Ganduje's etc for failing the country.

The blame should lie in the leaders that ruled before them that failed to instil the proper values and necessary checks and balances to create strong institutions. Presently, the Nigeria we live in certain individuals are more powerful than state institutions.

If we had got it right in the 70's and 80's and the proper values were instituted, Nigeria would have had the same kind of infrastructural development and strong institutions like Algeria, Morocco and South Africa.

Yakubu Gowon was the worst president and did the most damage.

Reneged on Aburi accord

Abolished regions and created states

Created the revenue "sharing formula" regardless of whether your state is productive or not

Created a fund to cover the expenses of the governor's office monthly no matter how much (legalised corruption)

Etc etc

That's why Festus Odimegwu had to go...

silibaba:

#UnFinishedBusiness2023

ThickSharon123:
I won't vote for Jonathan because his Ijaw. Ibibio, Urhobo, Efik, Isoko, Igbo and the likes are on my list. But Ijaw no way. If you like bring an angel.

GEJ is different

Doyin2:
GEJ is constitutionally not qualified to run for presidency again.

PassingShot:
By law, Jonathan cannot be president again in Nigeria having been previously sworn in twice as president.

Section 137 says the president cannot be elected more than twice. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has only been elected once. He is legally fit to become president in 2023

russellino:
Sai GEJ. If he runs for President I will personally get him ten votes

Bros I will mobilise my entire hood. I go spend money for the matter

The King is back!!!

After suffering for 6 years the masses now know he was a fantastic president, the "owners" of Nigeria know he is the only person with the mass appeal and personality to keep Nigeria one country after Buhari has almost finished it. The international community wants him and would be very supportive of his candidacy.

When I saw the way the crowd cheered and clapped for him when Obasanjo introduced him at Christ Embassy awards I knew that something was up.

GEJ come and save us abeg

NGpatriot aka Eko Ile why na so this your behaviour is not only online. I hope say you finally pay

Techguy96:
They will say it's better to partner with the bunkerers and make money, everyone is happy instead of engaging in gun battle that will lead to lost of life for both parties.

Na win-win situation for the military. If any military man tries to be too holy his own bosses will transfer him to Lake Chad to face Boko haram

The money is just too much. That's why Military men will forever partner with the bunkerers and illegal refiners

Ipob troll, I did not ask you to bore me with the same ipob trolling nonsense.

So, Buhari also collected loan and shove the loan inside his Babariga?

You ipobs are just dumber than dumber..

I asked you to list what 16 years of PDP commissioned in your village or anywhere in the SE.

Btw, what was used by crooked and corrupt Jona to pay for the ZERO projects in your ipob village? Akpu..

16 years, wasted votes and not even a gutter in abia in return.. Losers.. [/s]

It's amala and fufu sales that Jonathan used to give you water after 50 years of dryness in Osun. The N51 Trillion in your Photoshop picture was not included

https://www.nairaland.com/1447691/gov-aregbesola-commends-fg-completing

"Aregbesola commended the Federal Government for releasing funds towards the completion of Ilesha dam,which has now relieved the people that had being without potable water in the past 50 years"

NGpatriot:

Typical ignorant and unintelligent ipob troll.

Who collected N51 Trillion and who spent it? Me or Jona as head of government?

If crooked and corrupt Jona did not collect and spent our oil earnings, doesn't it also means that Buhari is not the one collecting loans?

You see how lame elementary, kindergarten and ignorant you really sound?

There's more to life than trolling at your old ass age.

Once a person enters APC I am sure they collect their brains first...

We don hear, Jonathan collected N51 Trillion and put inside his fedora hat. The Lagos-Ibadan railway line we are seeing and all the other things were paid for with amala and ewa agoyin oil

NGpatriot:
This is the problem with you ipobs, you don't read and you don't keep up with current affairs, you just camp on NL spewing ignorant garbage all over the place.

This is the proof that GEJ "collected" N51 Trillion? No wonder you never progress for this your BMC career pass this level after all these decades

NGpatriot:
[s][/s]


Is this how you and your kind list, or show us what your looting and stealing uncles did with all the trillions in oil earnings and the humongous debt they accumulated.


Sit your clueless, lacy and incompetent ipob ass somewhere if you can not prove me wrong.

Show where you got the N51 Trillion oil money story from. NG Liar

NGpatriot:
[s][/s]

also show us what that useless clown from otuoke built and commissioned with the N51 Trillion oil wealth he collected

What a childish and outrageous lie

Obasanjo drops another one

Is this a joke? People travelled to the east this year more than the last three holidays.

Direct Or Indirect Primaries, Tinubu Will Win 2023 Election – Faleke

https://nationalwatch.com.ng/2021/12/26/direct-or-indirect-primaries-tinubu-will-win-2023-election-faleke/

Faleke the mushin boy

Very silly of her. Fan dash you money from him church mind you first took the money and rejected it when you saw it was small.

Yeye behaviour. Very crude, I been dey think this girl get class pass this kind display

Deadlytruth:
Southerners were being killed in the North by civilian mobs before independence and not by army officers. So your question doesn't really address mine which is about why Northern army officers killed Ironsi.

Unfortunately, I have opened your link and saw nothing on revenues in any of the schedules. Would you mind being specific about the page it is located? I searched the entire 14 pages line by line and found nothing on your claim that revenue sharing formula was left intact. Please be reminded that we were practising federalism and resource control hence we can't be talking of sharing formula in respect to that period. If sharing formula later came into the picture through Ironsi's decree, then it is a proof that he introduced unitary system that goes with sharing as we currently have it in Nigeria today.
Still expecting the specific mention of the page in question anyway.

Go and read the correct document. The 14 page one is Ironsi's Decree and I'm glad you have admitted unwittingly that there is no reference to revenue. I'm also glad you aren't disputing that Ironsi left the regions untouched. Now check Gowon's own abi na dodge you dey dodge as per sacred cow

I'm done tutoring you

Deadlytruth:
If Ironsi actually left the regions 100% the way he met them, i.e. without tampering with them at all? Then why did Northerners kill him only after he made the Unification Decree which was directed at the regional structure? Why didn't Northern soldiers consider toppling and killing him ever before he promulgated Decree 34?

Why have northerners been murdering southerners in the north since before independence?

You don't do research before you post and it shows. Ironsi's Decree 34 created groups of provinces from each of the regions. The decree even retained the old constitutions of each region for the group of provinces. He did not touch the sharing formula either. See a link to download the pdf and learn the truth if you are interested https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://gazettes.africa/archive/ng/1966/ng-government-gazette-supplement-dated-1966-05-24-no-51-part-a.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiC9pnXuYT1AhUB3BoKHSBhD9kQFnoECDkQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2Fb7Ajtfusl2QzqbJ_P0As

But see how your sacred cow Gowon disfigured and tore everything apart. After breaking up the regions and creating states he erased resource control and then opened an account to cater for the costs of running the state government. This is what has continued until today (feeding bottle federalism) Decree 14 & 15

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://gazettes.africa/archive/ng/1967/ng-government-gazette-supplement-dated-1967-05-27-no-37-part-a.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiF0ISHvoT1AhXK0qQKHS_JCzsQFnoECAYQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1UOu7lupdTsumTDlGpSIMb

Only buffoons will swallow this trash without critical thought

Deadlytruth:
The topic is never buried. That will only happen the day you Ironsi's brothers explain what exactly he meant with those expressions. It had nothing to do with electioneering season.It is all about how Nigeria was derailed into this unworkable structure which even the election of a saint into Aso Rock will not address.

Lol

When you have the balls to address Gowon's legacy let the world know
