Fools everywhere.

Fools will agree that we doubled our highest production in less than two months (from 3300MW to 7000MW) without any capital infrastructural input. I guess we generated the extra power from thin air. APC is just desperate to find at least one campaign point.... but sorry this one cant fly. We are in total darkness even in rainy season

Again, Fools everywhere

Installed capacity has always been above 10,000mw. You dont need to be a genius to know that only some maintenance works and availability of gas (not necessarily major capital investment) can boost power generation significantly.

Amarabae:
Goodday all,
I want to start by condemning the ongoing operation python dance that is ongoing in southeast which have injured many and some have been killed,
it is out of place because the lives and properties of Innocent people are at risk,
Buhari should withdraw them!
But my main message is directed at nnamdi kanu and i will make it brief,
it is not the strongest animal that survive in the jungle but the wisest,
a wise man examine the harsh reality around him and adapt to it,
I love my Igbo people deeply and seeing the picture of young and handsome Igbo youths being shot in the name of Ipob by the army do break my heart,
and my first anger is not directed at the Army but NNAMDI KANU!
Let me tell you why!
The key battling point in this agitation is the Biafra Map,
Britain still have a huge stake and investments in the oil of Niger delta and they are ready to defend that interest together with their "allies" in Nigeria,
before ojukwu could learn about this bitter reality, up to 2million Igbos have lost their lives just because of the british interest crude oil in the land of the Southern Minorities,
after the war,have there been any international probing over it?
Oh the UN Kept quiet over it,
Ojukwu would have succeded had it been he made Biafra an Only Igbo affair and leave the minorities alone,
biafra and Gowon would have left him had it been he did that,
Nnamdi Kanu is still holding unto the same ojukwu failed tactics by drawing a map which included the land of the minority tribes where the majority of the crude oil comes from,
do you think that Britain and the North that stopped oukwu will allow him?
I have always insisted that nnamdi kanu leave the southern minorities like ijaws,ogonis,efiks,ibibios,urhobos,itsekiris,isokos etc ALONE and make his agitation a HOMOGENOUS IGBO ONLY AFFAIR!
But as usual, his ipob foot keyboard soldiers launched a missile on me,
these minorities have asked you many times to count them out of Biafra but stubborness and delusion will not allow you people!
Why will the Igbo youths be setting themselves up as sacrifical lambs on the alter of british and northern interest in Niger delta oil?
Is there not oil in my Asa land?
Is there not oil in Egbema,oguta,ogbaru,ukwa?
So why cant nnamdi kanu make this agitation an only Igbo affair and leave the southern minority tribes alone?
It is only a mad man that apply the same tactics and expect a different result,
ojukwu used this tactics in 1967,he failed,
kanu is toying the same tactical path!
And the minorities you are dying for and are being massacred because of british interest in their oil,
are they not the ones hating and insulting Igbos all over social media,
do they appreciate it?
Now war is looming and you are running to UN,trump AND AU facebook page to ask for help,
do you think they give a dime about africans?
Where was AU, UN, america in 1967 when Igbos were massacred?
Or do you think they will choose Igbos over the British?
If war start again, IGBOS will lose again,
thats a bitter fact!
Where is kanu now?
Why is he hiding?
Where went the bss?
Where went Asari dokubo?
Where went the niger delta avengers?
I told ipob that they are dwelling on a false sense of solidarity with the avengers,
they insulted me,
where went the missile built to burn the zoo down?
Just a little military operation and we Igbos look defenceless,
what of when a full war start?
If kanu want to succeed, he should remove the minority tribes from the map and make it a homogenous Igbo affair only but He refused stubbornly, then he should get ready for the british plus Northern forces!
Never again will Igbos be massacered over british interest in south south minorities crude oil!
Never again!

THANK YOU

You are totally right about this ma'am. But something I'd like to point out is that a Biafra without at least, one of the coastal states is economic suicide.

In my own opinion, the actual mistake of 1967 which is being repeated 50 years later is that Nnamdi Kanu/IPOB has not thought it wise or necessary to intellectually engage the southern minorities to win their trust and support. This was about the biggest error made in 1967 when even the closest neighbours of Igboland did not trust/support Igbos, but rather were forcibly dominated anyway.

50 years later, that issue of lack of trust and unity between the SS minorities and Igbos which greatly hindered the previous war effort still hasnt been solved, but IPOb just seems to be deluded with a fake sense of southern unity (probably because of the united voting pattern in the last election).

It must be pointed out that the only strength the north has in Nigeria's political affairs is their ability to be united when they need something. Until the south learns to be united, it will continue to be at the receiving end of the domination of the north. Even IPOb hasnt thought it wise to maturely engage the SS but rather just assumes the SS minorities are in support of their campaigns (probably because of the common enemy).

I see a lot of people on this thread saying "no deal" cos we have palm oil too. Very funny reaction from my people who are obviously unaware that Nigeria has been importing large volumes of palm oil for decades because we just dont produce enough to meet our industrial needs.

igbozionism:
if you had an iota of brain you would have known that KANU said he will destroy Nigeria with "truth" and not violence. his call for arms was for "self defence" but I know how you guys behave, you believe whatever that suites your sentiment which is usually far away from the truth.

Your desire to defend Kanu is well understood, but there's really no way you can erase the sour statements made by Kanu in the initial phases of his campaigns which are still all over the internet. I'm not sure about how "destroying with truth" could have resulted in "there will be no living thing left in that zoo... even Somalia will become a paradise compared to what will be left of the zoo."

And for the record of it, operation python dance has "FAILED" If the government withdrew their troops then, their is definitely something they are afraid of.

No govt wants to kill its people; with the resilience of the people even in the face of flying bullets and even some deaths, the troops would definitely retreat.

RZArecta:
Second civil war has started, thanks to that ídiot in Aso rock called Buhari

... You mean "thanks to Buhari and the semi-hunchback albino deportee from Peckham London (who has incited jobless youths against the government) for destruction they are both about to bring to Igboland 50 years after the last destruction"?

Hopefully all these would stay within Abia state...

PaperLace:
Why is this police station always a target?

Arson is a serious offence.

I've encountered IPOB twice and they are easily irritated and aggressive when you don't agree with them. They are more emotional than logical. Majority of them don't know the meaning of the words they throw around.

I only wish they see the light _ 'cos they know not what they're doing.

The way even the educated and 'supposedly' enlightened ipob adherents pounce and attack everyone with a contrary opinion online, the way even the ipob director himself refers to fellow Igbos who dont buy into his ideology as pigs and idiots already says it all... If the leader and the educated followers can be so repulsive, what then do you expect from the foot soldiers who are majorly street urchins, bus conductors, touts, agberos, sales apprentices etc?

N2million per month for a trainee in Schlumberger indeed...

Kzealz:
In as much as I suport agitation.. This is the height of ignorance by my people and they forgot we have over 10million igbos living in the north with over 60% of their investment under treath...
Don't be provoked by their military intervention...

This is what you would surely get when the bulk of the agitators are the ragtag street urchins, bus conductors, motor park touts and agberos; these guys don't even have a block to their names and don't give a hoot what happens to even millions of Igbos who actually own properties elsewhere. Just the same way a Kanu from his 'zero status' in Peckham London, returned and started making blankets call for Igbos who have spent decades getting established in different parts of Nigeria to just abandon everything to return to the SE Utopia to become paupers.

May God save the Igbos still remaining in the north... All it would take is for some demons to start spreading fake propaganda videos in the north of Hausas being maltreated in the SE, and hell would be let lose on the millions of innocent Igbos still living in the north. Thanks to the semi-hunchback albino deportee from Peckham London...

Ranch operators... Okay

isnovic:
Is it only in the SE that Dangote's truck has been burnt.

The truck is only collateral damage and nothing more.

Same fate other have suffered why the singular reference.

Dangote knows why he is not investing in the SE and the SE don't need sympathetic investor.

Dangote imports coal from SA, but the coal in his backyard, Enugu is comparatively of similar quality as the SA.

Ask yourself why an investor would rather spend the millions in import and transportation rather than develop the one at home as backward integration to his Cement manufacturing companies.

The bias is a silent agreement, but the Igbos are strong and do not seek sympathetic investors.

Dangote trucks might be burnt in other places when they are involved in accidents claiming lives; how on earth are you attempting to compare that with repeated burning of his trucks by miscreants during ipob protests?... Is Dangote the FG?... And there is nothing 'singular' about 4 Dangote trucks being burnt in Onitsha in the last bridge head ipob protest and the truck burnt yesterday.

Did you just claim Dangote imports coal from South-Africa to run his plants in Nigeria 'because of his hatred for the SE'?... What sort of nonsensical paranoid conclusion is that?... I suppose that is the sort of propaganda preached to those miscreants who keep burning Dangote properties in Igboland?... By the way, going by this your mentality, would you also say a notable petroleum importer like Ifeanyi Ubah for example 'hates the SS people', reason why he has chosen to import fuel instead of buying SS oil and setting up a refinery in the SS?.. Does that make any sense to you?... Are you aware Dangote only just got a license to start mining coal in Nigeria just 2 years ago and he's already set up a massive coal mine in Kogi state close to his cement factory?... There is a reason why many businessmen prefer importing products and raw materials instead of producing them in Nigeria, but your allegation of tribal hatred is the most ridiculous nonsense I've heard.

The only reason a profit oriented businessman will go ahead to avoid a potentially lucrative business opportunity, but rather opt for less profitable ventures elsewhere is because he understands the financial/business implications and the inherent huge risks involved (e.g. incessant burning and destruction of his investments at the slightest unconnected provocation by senseless hoodlums purely due to a mixture of jealousy and tribal hatred.

It's appalling that there are normal humans who would actually defend such senseless arson. What exactly is the difference between this barbaric act you are supporting and the actions of the almajiri touts who burn Igbo properties in Kano due to a cartoon in Denmark?... ANd finally, kindly stop this your 'Igbos dont need investment' nonsense, try and speak for yourself.

isnovic:
The several deaths the ill-safety conscious Dangote trucks have caused is enough to have sanctioned the company for their poor safety records.

On a daily basis, we read of multiple deaths and accidents these trucks have on the roads and in the South-West in particular, but no inquisition, industrial safety investigation or sanctions have been raised against Dangote.

Why? He supplies the South West and other regions millions of investment but kill and maim daily helpless Nigerians from these regions.


If for only these reasons, the SE do not need such investment.

So because Dangote's trucks are involved in accidents, is that your wise justification of why random Dangote trucks should be set ablaze by ipob hoodlums at the slightest unconnected provocation?... Go back and read what you just wrote, does it make any sense to you?

Was it because of an accident that the Dangote trucks burnt in Onitsha and the one burnt yesterday were burnt?...

And who told you the SE does not need investments? Is this some sort if resentment for Dangote due to his success or due to his tribe?.... What sort of childish reasoning is that?

Dont know how to react to this, not sure whether to laugh or cry...

goaldynboy:
Buhari is an octogenarian who is getting close to his death! Instead of him to go and die in peace in Daura, he has decided to set igboland on fire, so he will suck more blood to his grave! But all his evil plan will not work!

For all of you AFONJA who are gloating and masturbating because of this news, be informed that if war erupts it will consume everyone and every part of the country! We are talking about a race of 50million people! If only 5million of them are arm, do you think Nigeria can mess with them?!!

On the contrary, the semi-hunchback albino who came back from Peckham London to incite peaceful Igbos against the rest of Nigeria is the one who's about to set the Igboland on fire.

Buhari simply won a democratic election against GEJ. The anger caused by that election result should have since quenched while we wait till 2019 (cos I doubt PMB would be able to even rule beyond 2019). But whilst the anger of the election result was still fresh in the minds of majority Igbos, Kanu capitalises on the mood and steps in with his hate inciting preachings; and that has kept the anger and crisis fresh till date (more than 2 years after).

The last time IPOb had a crisis in Onitsha, some hoodlums went ahead to set 4 Dangote trailers on fire. Now again, some idiots have gone ahead to set Dangote trailers on fire unprovoked. And we begin to wonder why Dangote is skeptical about placing any of his serious investment in the SE?

While I would have simply dismissed this as an act by daft illiterate hoodlums, reading through this thread reveals that even some educated persons approve of the destruction of Dangote's properties as a sensible way to protest against government. God help us!

Still not sure I understand why the FG keeps making Kanu more relevant and popular.

There's nothing controversial about the conversation, except for the already known fact that the cabal members are wary of Aisha Buhari and have even gone ahead to label her a 'game spoiler' a.k.a suicide bomber.

pazienza:
I wouldn't know how many members IPOB had, before or after 2015 as I'm not a member nor do I have the stats . But I do know that MASSOB had a massive fellowership ship in the East between 1999-2007, it was so massive that they were able to bring many Igbo Controlled Nigerian markets trading activities to a halt with their sit at home orders which was obeyed all over the SE and beyond, they had so much control that OBJ considered them a national threat and sought to shut them down and curb their activities, culminating in their leader arrest.

With the death of MASSOB, natural osmosis took place, many of their members became IPOB members, and IPOB number increased , also with the aid of the social media and radio station, both of which MASSOB never had much access to, remember that a Biafran group during GEJ era were caught trying to hijack Enugu state radio station to broadcast their Biafra message and reach more audience.

IPOB was able to reach out to more Igbo youths and deliver their messages faster, using radio and social media. No Biafran group ever had such.

The social media also gave them visible presence that MASSOB never had, it made conducting of rallies more efficient and easier and put them more on the news.
Ofcourse, Buhari actions, encouraged by incompetent and narrow minded advisers such as your ilk, only succeeded in making IPOB more popular, and attracted more members for them.

These are things a person with brain cells would understand.
But I understand it's a big ask, asking a jellyfish to understand them.
It's easier to blame GEJ for every problem on earth.

Umuaka ka di gi nma. Ibu ozu nwulu awu na-esigbu ora. Ifere megbu kwa gi ebe afu, nkapi.

Just imagine the reasoning of simeone I've been arguing with?... How on earth did your brain arrive at the conclusion that I was blaming GEJ for Yoruba vs Igbo feud?.... When I said GEJ was the bone of contention, I simply meant that the electioneering process of 2015 incited a lot of bad blood between both tribes thereby escalating an already existing cold war. Like I said before, I am not up here for an argument with anyone over a matter that even toddlers are aware of. For you to even interpret my statement as me blaming GEJ, that speaks volumes about your understanding already.

Guy, I no get your time today abeg.

pazienza:
There are no facts to argue. You are pulling things from thin air and labelling them as facts.

Whatever IPOB is doing today, whatever support they are pulling in Igboland today, Uwazuruike and MASSOB had done same, and that was even before GEJ ventured into national politics.

If we are to take you and your fellow clowns serious, the emergence of Uwazuruike in 2000, can as well be attributed to a reaction to Ndiigbo and Ekwueme losing out on the presidency to OBJ.

#Anakogheli

How many supporters did ipob have prior to 2015 elections compared to present day??... How many rallies did ipob have prior to 2015 elections?.... How many people heard of Nnamdi Kanu prior to 2015 elections?... Okay lets assume MASSOB was the main group before now, how many supporters did MASSOB have prior to 2015 compared to present day?... Keep coughing out nonsense arguments from your anus because you think you are talking to a child, noro ebe ahu n'akogheri ka onye nzuzu ibu.

#Iberiberism

pazienza:
How exactly is this true!
Are you okay at all?

One moment you are talking about SE, the next you are talking about IPOB and MASSOB like they both don't represent SE.

The bone of contention is if Biafra agitation had been on and strong in SE before and during GEJ regime . And the answer is YES!

Between 2012-2014 was a transition period for the Biafran struggle. Uwazuruike couldn't maintain the momentum he started with in 1999-2007, he was compromised by Nigeria after his incarceration and derailed the struggle a bit, as it lost its steam. And then as is bound to be in nature, Uwazuruike lost his place, and was gradually replaced by Kanu between 2012-2015 who breathed New life into the struggle.
And just like the early years of Uwazuruike was strong( remember his legendary tuzzle with ObJ regime) , the early years of Kanu had been strong too.

But unlike Uwazuruike, Kanu came out of incarceration stronger, he had refused to compromise the struggle, unlike Uwazuruike, he had sustained his early momentum and this had translated to where we are today.

The Igbo Yoruba feud didn't explode. We just got tired of being at the receiving end of their hate for us, because of our Biafra ideology, and had decided to return hate for hate. This had changed things.

Mr Man, you aren't talking to a child and neither are you talking to a non-Nigerian that is oblivious of happenings in Nigeria; stop trying to twist obvious facts. Even toddlers know that there was a massive explosion in the Biafran agitations following the events of the 2015 elections and similarly, the tribal feud in Nigeria exploded following that election. I'm not sure if it's comprehension of my English language that's your problem.

I'm not down to argue any of these obvious facts with anyone cos it's pointless and a waste of my time. If you want to keep deceiving yourself or living in ridiculous denial, then feel free to keep pleasing yourself and leave me out of it.

pazienza:
It would appear you are very mischievous and dishonest.

This your Igbos started chanting Biafra because GEJ loss propaganda had been busted repeatedly in this forum, yet each time when you think no one was watching, you revert back to propagating same debunked propaganda.

Igbos had always been staunch Biafrans, and Yorubas had always been one Nigeria apologists. The end result is that Yorubas had always hated Ndiigbo and wished us ill for our non yielding attitude towards Biafra.

We had always ignored them in the past, but had recently decided never to do that again. This time around, we return their hate with ten times more hate, and the result is what you see today.

https://www.nairaland.com/956515/16-massob-members-killed-83/5#59547374

Igbos never stopped being Biafrans or agitating for Biafra.

Only dishonest people will say that our demand for Biafra is built on GEJ loss.

@Pazienza, stop flattering yourself with this empty talk; you are the one being mischievous and dishonest for attempting to twist a known fact. Oh yes! MASSOB and ((even ipob) existed before 2015, but that does not change the fact that 99%% of Ipob members of today only declared their allegiance to Kanu and ipob after 2015 elections.

Regarding the Yoruba vs Igbo feud, it's also been in existence for decades, but the magnitude of the feud exploded after 2015 elections also....

While some people claim that Rochas is a governor of only Owerri who carries out projects only in Owerri, these ones here are now claiming Rochas is marginalising Owerri. Ayam not understanding!

The so called Ohaneze youths sound more like political jobbers wailing because they weren't given appointments. The only point they seem to be making is that they forcefully want the governorship to rotate to Owerri and Rochas doesnt seem to be supporting that.

Olu20090:
kid's Glove Aside, I'll Be Very Harsh And Brutal On You Niger Delta People Today Because Some of You Don't Have Sense At All Especially The Elders. I'm prompted to write this because I just came back from an assignment in Yonagoa, Uyo and Eleme in Rivers State few days ago. The level of suffering and poverty I saw there brought tears to my eyes. Though most of you are waking up and supporting IPOB now, but I want to know...how in the heck were Hausa-Fulani and Yorubaas able to deceive you that Igbos were your enemies for over 50 yrs, while they siphon proceeds from the resources in your land to their regions; building Lagos and Abuja to modern cities? How in the heck did they deceive you so easily? I cannot understand this at all...cannot. Have Igbos ever invaded your land? No. Have you ever heard of Igbos entering your land to steal your oil despite Igbo states bothering all Niger Delta oil states? No. Have you ever heard of Igbos killing your people? No. THEN WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM? CAN'T YOU REASON? HOW CAN THESE PEOPLE DECEIVE YOU LIKE THESE WHILE THEY STEAL FROM YOU? It's one thing to tell you that Igbos are your enemy and Uyo, Warri, Asaba, Port Harcourt and Yonogoa are like Abuja and Lagos, then It would make perfect sense that Igbos are your enemy because your are benefiting like Abuja and Lagos, but in this instance, you are not benefiting anything at all...zero, nothing, then what is wrong with you people? Where is your IQ? I have never been so angry in my life. The European, French guy whom I'm on this assignment with cannot also understand this at all. What is the problem Niger Delta people?

bounty007:
niger delta don't really hate the igbo's.. they're scared of igbo excesses.

they know their problem is hausa fulani/ yoruba's.. who steal their resources.

this explain why militants /agitators always blow pipeline or attack government facilities..or give ultimatum to the parasites.

there's lot of igbo's investment in the south outh.. and lot's of ibos too.

non have been attacked or destroy on basis of hatred or tribal connotations.

To the north hausa/fulani is business.. nothing more..

but to a typical Afonja.. the word hatred is real.. so real.

I find it funny how many people in these ipob era keep singing the ignorant songs about how ONLY Hausa and Yorubas benefit from Niger-Delta oil money. One just begins to wonder when all the big Igbo moneybags, elite and perpetual government contractors, some of whom own juicy oil blocks also became Yorubas and Hausas... Can someone please produce that full list of oil block owners so we can do another census exercise of their tribes...

Instead of focussing on more intellectually sound arguments about how long standing neighbours and brothers from the SS and SE should unite for positive socio-economic growth, instead of coming up with sound convincing arguments to lobby the SS tribes to join Biafra, it seems the only 'bright idea' the heads of some ipob people churns out is psyching the SS folks that Hausas and Yorubas hate them while Igbos love them. And some dunces even go ahead to insult the SS for refusing IPOB's by-force marriage.

People that attacked Aisha Alhassan for withdrawing her support from the president, calling her all sorts are today suppprting her against FFK.


Just like their pay masters, no ideology, no direction.


BMC are confused by the twist to these events and that explains why they have reacted like a rabbit caugjht under a light.

They are not sure if to move forward, stay static or run back.


Selling a future and conscience to put food on the table must be the toughest job in the world.

Not supporting PMB is a choice Mama Taraba has made, she is within her rights to do so and that is simply politics.

But when a psychopathic idiot tries to capitalise on the situation by generating and spread fake inflammatory stories, he needs to be called to order by any sane human.

Is FFK trying to claim he didnt know the story he responded to was a fake concoction from some idiots?...

paschu:
Good.

Next time stick to the facts and quit twisting issues.

Oil do not make nations lazy. Nations get lazy because they choose to be lazy.

Yes, the structure is designed to promote laziness and exclusive extraction.

But why blame it on the oil?

Take away oil, your folks will still be lazy DUE TO SOMETHING ELSE.

So, praying for the oil to dry is not just silly, it's insane.

But, why am I not suprised?

You and your gang probably thought that unrefined crude is all there is to oil.

You are beginning to irritate me with the some of your senseless comments. When you repeatedly use the statement 'your folks', who exactly do you refer to?... Who exactly are 'my folks' and why in your wildest imagination do you think you know where I'm from because I commented on an issue online?

And what exactly is the meaning of your last statement?

paschu:
You sound so confused Mr. Man. I know it's in your dna as an APC member, but you guys should quit getting things twisted. All Nigerians are not as dumb as APC.

And, FYI, the US oil production is expected to hit 10 million barrels per day by next year:

https://www.cnbc.com/2017/06/06/us-oil-output-to-hit-record-10-million-barrels-a-day-next-year-eia.html

Whilst, you should also know, Russia's output is over 5000 barrels per day.

http://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Russian-Maritime-Oil-Exports-Fall-For-First-Time-In-2017.html

So, Mr., if oil money makes nations lazy, how come those two countries are not seen as lazy too?

Look man, you WIN! I'm tired of this dumb shiit! especially when it has now become an APC vs PDP issue to you (or probably you only saw it as APC vs PDP all along, now wonder we could never be on the same page).

If you dont understand my point about how the feeding bottle arrangement of Nigeria's structure has made 5 out of 6 zones in Nigeria to be lazy and parasitic to free oil money coming from the SS, then I'm sorry I'm a bit too busy right now to continue with these explanations which are like pouring water on a rock. You win! I am dumb! Bye!
