I am not seeing all the geo political zones represented in the appointments or I'm I making a mistake?

All geopolitical zones are represented

pazienza:
I will be glad if we keep this discussion civil, because I can actually play in the mud, if you want, so I would advise you stop using words like " Childish".


Radio Biafra was not any soothing relief. That Biafrans have no interest in being part of Nigeria is nolonger news as we have a 3year civil war to prove that.

Radio Biafra only reminded Ndiigbo why we fought to leave Nigeria, they gave facts and predictions, predictions which played out exactly the way they made it.
When it was dawning on most of us that MASSOB had been compromised and lost their purpose, IPOB arose and provided an alternative route, that is proving more effective, and the result is that they are today enjoying the same exact popularity amongst Biafrans that Uwazuruike and MASSOB enjoyed when he( Uwazuruike) came out New with his new methods for Biafran actualization.

And if I remember well, Uwazuruike Enjoyed so much popularity from Ndiigbo that he was able to close down Igbo shops all over the country and OBJ saw him as a national threat and jailed him. He came out of that jail a compromised man, and Biafrans sensed his methods were no longer working, so his popularity died a natural death.


Nnamdi Kanu is new, and has come with New message for Biafra actualization, so like Uwazuruike, he has attracted popularity amongst Biafrans and followership too, and like Uwazuruike before him, he has attracted the attention of the Nigerian leaders and is now in jail.

If he comes out of this jail a compromised man, and Ndiigbo sense his methods are no longer working, he too will lose his popularity and like Uwazuruike before him slip into mediocrity.

The Biafran Dream proved bigger than Ojukwu, for it lives even after he had died. It will outlive Uwazuruike, Kanu Nnamdi or any other mortal being.

Its an insult to Biafrans to tie our Biafran struggle to the happenings in Nigeria.

I admire your sense of determination and focus; all I can say is goodluck! However, even though you will NEVER accept this openly (for obvious reasons), the fact remains that the ipob struggle received a huge boost in popularity and followership after GEJ's election loss (also for obvious logical reasons). This remains a glaring fact which is visible to the blind and audible to the deaf, accepting or denying it does not change what it is, A FACT!

pazienza:
What do you mean by upsurge? You mean it is now the duty of Odua Arewa-Oduanistans to tell us when to add more effort to our Biafran struggle?

Check my signature in NL here, I have been pro Biafran from day one. Radio Biafra was already booming in Biafra land before elections, and was one of the reasons there was low turn out in the SE for elections as they were telling listeners not to be involved in the electoral process, they made a prediction of GEJ loss in the polls because of the Nigerian factor and advised listeners not to waste their time getting involved in the elections as the result was already certain.

Radio Biafra was not booming to non Igbos, because the FG under GEJ never cared about Radio Biafra, they were not trying to shut it down or jail their members, they just ignored it.

But Buhari govt did the opposite and only ended up popularizing the Radio station.
When anyone hear that the Nigerian govt was after Radio Biafra, the person would start wondering what they say there, and will end up trying to find out by tuning to the station to listen to the message. If the person is a Biafran, he becomes hooked to the truth said there and invites friends to listen more, if he is an Arewa-Oduanistan, his heart becomes filled with hatred, bitterness and desire to harm Biafra Agitators, and the more they( Arewa-Oduanistan) pour their bitterness and desire to harm Biafrans out, the more they made Biafrans out of previously neutral Igbos.

When you add this to the fact that Kanu predictions about the elections came to pass, and his predictions about the character of Buhari were been gradually unveiled, his( Kanu) popularity was only going to go up and up.
All these ended up making Radio Biafra and IPOB popular.

It had nothing to do with Nigerian elections.

Bro, stop trying too hard to twist facts. There's no doubt that Ipob and radio biafra existed before 2015. I am also not arguing that you've been an adherent even long before 2015. But coming here to say it became popular only after Buhari's government tried to jam its frequency or arrest it's people, that is obviously you trying too hard to turn logic on its head. The FG before 2015 never cared about Radio Biafra simply because it was not popular and was insignificant distraction. Radio biafra became popular only after the 2015 election results were announced and it was only because of its radically growing popularity and massively growing followership, that's why the FG heard and decided to give a damn about it by attempting to jam the frequency.

Using its popularity on Nairaland as a case study, I doubt there were up to 5 threads talking about Biafran secession or IPOB or radio biafra in the last 5 years (preceding the 2015 election). But since May 28th till date, I wouldn't doubt if there are now up to 500 pro-Biafran threads on this website. Radio biafra was simply a soothing hope reviving alternative where thousands of Igbos who felt really sad over the election result decided to turn to. Trying to separate the rising popularity of Kanu/RB from the events of the election is simply illogical and childish.

pazienza:
I guess MASSOB was established on May 29 2015. I guess Billie group was established the same date.

Can't believe I am sharing the same country with such brain dead fellows.

Lol.. You always wilfully fail to acknowledge the point where it says the 'upsurge' in the Biafran struggle started after 2015 elections yet you call someone saying the plain truth brain dead. Nobody doubts the existence of Massob and ipob and radio biafra for years, but membership and followership of these organisations exploded only after the election. I wonder why most adherents are ashamed to admit to this glaring fact.

Chanchit:
Maybe you should read what i typed calmly,you might get it the second time.

I am aware of your sarcasm.

We've been hearing this same promise from every single administration since 1999.

plainol:
The pictures don't add up. They are not taken the same day. These are lies.

I thought I was the only one who noticed this. From the first picture, I couldn't help but wonder, is Mr Obuah still GEJ's CSO?... is Col. Adegbe still GEJ's ADC?.... And then a closer look at the second and third picture shows that they all wore different clothes. I think the first picture is old.

For every single Yoruba or Hausa owned bungalow in the SE, Igbos own 1000 storey buildings in the SW and north. However, in their rare 'wisdom', some disgruntled elements believe the best thing for Igbos to do in present day Nigeria is to break away even through non-peaceful means. This lends credence to what I have always said that it is only the empty vessels and never-do-wells that are clamouring for this secession, especially the Nnamdi Kanu styled violent and tribal hatred based secession.

ki02020:
Yes namesake

Am only pointing out the fact that those calling for bihafra are made up of shafts and seeds...if you get what I mean

Unfortunately, it is the empty vessels that make the loudest noise, thereby giving the impression that the entire ethnic group is in support.

Senator Sani has said nothing but the truth; the whole upsurge of the Biafran idea is just a direct reaction to the 2015 election result; a very hypocritical struggle.

Chanchit:
I think Buhari should just let this master strategists go, I heard Nnamdi Kanu just completed a deal with Russia to buy one nuclear weapon called Akara bomb, na that one dem go take finish the Zoo. That guy is really working hard from inside that tubu.

The IQ of some of the pro-secessionists can really be embarrassingly mind boggling... I can assure you these are the kind of stories some of them believe and peddle and this is what gives them the courage to go protesting and daring the trigger happy Nigerian police...

Keyamo has just hit the nail on the head. This is pure common sense, but PDP has been trying hard to sound objective without applying logic. How can you define where you are going if you dont 'appraise' where you have been?

TonyeBarcanista:
The ongoing second Niger bridge is one. Another is Onitsha-Owerri road... U want more? www.nairaland.com/1579834/gejs-giant-strides-south-east

Now I really find this offensive that there are still people who lie to themselves and to the gullible out there that GEJ fixed the onitsha owerri road. What sort of pit of hell lie is this?

That road was fixed to 98% by OBJ. GEJ only came in to do a commissioning yet some miscreants keep brandishing this road as GEJ's achievement?

TonyeBarcanista:
If Buhari is sincere he'll take the noble advice

Resign and then what happens?... He hands over to Prof Osinbajo?... Or maybe the prof resigns too and they hand over power to Saraki?

Instead of you PDPians to go back to the drawing board, put on your thinking caps (that's if you guys have any) and try to strategise on 2019, you are here wishing for the president to resign with the hope that you could drag power from some kind of backdoor. Shame!

Lol... Nigerian politics

ijustdey:
www.vanguardngr.com/2015/11/amaechis-confirmation-formal-approval-ff-corruption-pdp/

PDP itself is corruption personified; PDP is the human organisation personification of the word 'corruption.' Contrary to the appointment and confirmation of Amaechi, the real action (or rather, inaction) of the present government which is a 'formal approval of corruption' is letting the members of the PDP to still be roaming freely on our streets. All those PDPians need to be locked up and the keys discarded for keeping Nigeria in bondage for 16 years. This is the only area where I am really disappointed with Buhari.

Was the little girl stepping on the cake?

WHere has he gone to?

Ladipodeal:
Are you sure the road was completed?

The project was completed on paper and used to deceive our brothers who wilfully chose to be deceived that GEJ was the best thing God ever created.

Some people would still find some fault in this unprecedented development; some people would still come here to ask "where is the CHANGE?"

Op, if there was the required raw materials, market, seaport, etc in her village, I doubt she would want to move such an investment to Lagos. When locating businesses, people generally consider economic and social convenience before they consider 'patriotism'. If I live in Lagos and if i will earn N10 profit per month as against N5 I will earn in my village, I will most likely locate my business in Lagos; this is not really foolishness as you claim, it is callled economic expedience. Even Dangote is locating his refinery in Lagos.

Ok

hinwazaka:
Despite my reservations for jumping at unverified scoops, I would say this list represents the most likely distribution of portfolios to the ministerial nominees. The list goes in line with this administration's 97% and 5% arrangement. All the juicy portfilios have been awarded to Northerners. But the only bone I would pick with it is due to the President's recent revelation of decreasing the amount of Ministers with portfolios.

PS: I thought APC fanatics claimed Fashola would be appointed as the Minister for the FCT. He wasn't even made the Minister for FCT(state).

Only corrupt minds and souls still think there is something like 'JUICY' in government positions. Unfortunately for your likes and fortunately for Nigeria, we are no longer in the old order.

Even if I try hard to condescend to your manner of reasonings as regards juicy and non-juicy posts, I still find it difficult to fathom how you have interpreted FINANCE, HEALTH, WORKS, TRANSPORT, POWER and PETROLEUM as non-juicy positions..... or maybe you are just some idle busy-body desperately looking for something to say even when there's none?

Love Machine:
They were screened and release not investigated and found innocent.

Please yourself.

Love Machine:
Direct me to a link where they were investigated and found innocent.See you northerners were insulting Jonathan with all sort of degrading names,but hurts you when your brother,buhari,is criticize,not insulted.

Your allegation is baseless, quit whining like a child. GEJ lost a democratic election and is no more the president, try and live with that and stop these immature outbursts. Elections are long over and you are not doing yourself any good by living in the past, now is the time to be serious.

Go and read the report about the release of those suspects, it was written in plain and simple english; some of the suspects were released after investigations found them to be innocent. The Nigerian Army is not a stupid organisation that will just release suspects in their custody without investigating.
http://m.news24.com/news24/Africa/News/Nigerian-army-releases-128-Boko-Haram-suspects-20150909

Love Machine:
If they were investigated I would know from sources.Those terrorists suspects were granted presidential pardon.

How come they were not all granted pardon?... Why did it have to be a few?... Stop being unnecessarily prejudiced towards the government because you dont like Mr president.

Love Machine:
I don't really have confidence in buhari's govt that if those bokoharam suspects displayed by the military as wanted persons are caught they will be prosecuted.Look at how they recently released some detained bokoharam suspects without investigating if they are innocent. Some of them may have gone back to sambisa forests to collect more suicide vests or they may even be fulani herdsmen who carry ak47 with cattle to kill innocent citizens and farmers.

After being held in custody for several months, some of the prisoners were released. Please how did you come to this conclusion that the released persons were not investigated first?...

Once again, I totally doubt that this is petrol. I know there are many foolish people out there but we are not this foolish. This must be kerosene.

BLIND MAN'S SLAP SENDS PREGNANT LADY CRASHING TO THE GROUND!!!

PassingShot:
Shame on your parents. They failed woefully in training you. Same goes for the parents of those liking your post.

Dont bother responding to imbeciiles. They would end up dragging you to their level.

Can people really be this foolish?... Including the cars driving past at the side?... I doubt this fluid is petrol, it must be kero or diesel.

MuamarGaddaffi:
Are you an Engineer? Dont say its impossible because you are ignorant of the principle applied.

Someone doesnt really have to be an engineer by training to know some basic engineering laws. Even 1000 tiger head batteries cannot cook 2-minute noodles; the person you quoted is obviously not the ignorant one as you claim.

An explanation has been given as to how that stove works, it is a normal charcoal stove, but instead of the hand fan that our boli and roasted corn sellers use to fan the charcoal to make it burn faster/hotter, the producer of this stove has fitted a battery powered fan to fan the charcoal, thereby making the 'normal' charcoal stove more efficient. A brilliant idea though.
