Yoruba are strong on this list

proeast:



Lol, don’t mind those evil children of hate from the wrong side of Nigeria. The only things their poor parents teach them is how to hate on Igbos out of inferiority complex.


Logic is something their small brains can never process. Imagine a Jewish man is publicly proclaiming that the great Igbos are Jews. Igbos didn’t ask him o, but based on his own research and personal beliefs. The same Jews have gone to court and also did researches to prove how Igbos have Jewish roots. Yet a Yoruba man out of envy, jealousy and inferiority complex is accusing Igbos of attaching themselves when it’s actually the Jews that are attaching themselves to the great Igbos.


With all the evidence to prove beyond reasonable doubt these children of fallen demons still continue to embarrass themselves. But they believe the coc.k and bull story that a certain odudowa fell from the sky and was the progenitor of Yorubas. Their parents believe this nonsense too but Igbo children, even those still in primary will waste no time to debunk that odudowa story as rubbish. Honestly, those people need mass psychological therapy to bring them back to basic level of human reasoning 😂😂.

Igbos don't have jewish roots and at least the Oduduwa story does not make Yoruba people inferior to anyone. Nobody can say Yoruba suffer from inferiority complex and lack of history because they talk about Oduduwa because in the end, it is their own.

Igbo and the fake jewish thing is a laughing stock. Something the lowest of people do to their own history.

Desperate for allies after Iran strike. They need more bodies to throw at bullets

Hope Uzodinma shared the pictures of the ongoing International Conference Centre. This project still has a long way to go.

BTW, what did this man achieve in the past four years? This is one question his defenders haven't been able to answer

every governor in nigeria, no matter what, will build an 'international conference center'.
The next one will come and build it again

richiemcgold:


We've seen great roads built on tougher terrains in Europe, in US and Asia. Why can't it be possible here in Nigeria? We've seen amazing roads built on water, rail tracks laid under the ground, and even gigantic bridges hanging in the air, so what's the big deal about a coastal highway? This is 21st century for God's sake!

They will not build bridges that hang in the air, which they should. They will be low land bridges, which we already build.
I just don't see any nigerian government having the selflessness and political capital/will needed to do this. All of those things they built abroad, if you look closely, they didn't inflate their budget as much as we already have from start. This project will take decades. That's decades of inflation of budget, decades on unstable currency. One government will start it, and another will finish it but it will bankrupt of seriously indebt many of the governments to come. Which no president is risking their public perception for Tinubu's project.


Also, those low land bridges will end all possible navigability of the rivers in that area, severly stifling the economic future of the country. The entire Niger River that can be used as a super highway of goods and people is blocked by ignorantly low bridges at several points.


If I see a blueprint which high bridges, and a sensible budget I'll believe in it, but I feel this is another siphon for public funds

See how hatred is wounding this one.
That coastal highway will create 2000 beach restorts and all of them will be Igbo.
Demolish Landmark, 2000 more landmarks will emerge and all of the owners will even be from the same village. You cannot stop a child from leaving its mother's womb when the time comes.

Putin never said this stupid nonsense

It is only in NIgeria that they believe drinking water requires high budget.
Ordinary water tank and borehole, they want to see billion naira budget. Then they will complain of corruption.

Ofunaofu:


Atiku just described it as a Highway to fraud and waste

He is correct. It is a money laundering operation. The 'price' is $18bllion or something like that in USD. Meanwhile this amount has never been spent on a single highway in the US which is the size of west africa. If you combine all of the highways in the US it cost $118 billion to build, and again, the US highway system is the biggest, longests and most advanced in human history. It cuts through every major city and if you have not been to the US you will understand that it is the equalvalent of building the Lagos-Calabar line for every single major and mid-sized city in the whole of west africa.



Chagoury is one of the people Tinubu likes to steal money with, and the contract was given to him with 0 competition or bidding.
That money is for future APC political battles. The logistics of building this highway are unrealistic especially knowing Nigeria. I can be done but it will sink the public perception and finances of any government that dares it and no president is going to risk their presidency on something like that.

The highway is unbuildable because the terrain won't allow something of that scale.
It will constantly flood while also blocking the hundreds of waterways it has to cross, and the amount of bridges that need to be built will be cartoonish.

It's airline food and not some restaurant dining. Alot of North American airlines won't even serve food except you buy from the air hostess, and heaven did not fall Lol.

So because North Americans are being stupid, we now have to perform below them? What type of yeye standard is that?
They also inject heroin at record numbers, should we join?
I will pay a premium to eat my native food on a flight, what did I say that was confusing?

Not everything is price. I will pay more to eat egusi soup on a flight and see ishiagu in full display

This is different than what I have been told. It is true though

Amazing

wow

ABUA NATIONAL COUNCIL (ANC) APLAUDS IJAW NATIONAL COUNCIL (INC) FOR DELETING AND REMOVING ABUA AS A CLAN UNDER IJAW FROM IT'S CONSTITUTION.


I wish to use this very proud and enviable platform of Abua people both at home and the Diaspora to officially thank the Ijaw National Congress - the apex sociocultural organization of the Ijaw ethnic nationality for heeding to the voice of reason and DELETING ABUA from The Constitution of the Ijaw National Congress, 2019. It would be recalled that on the 27th of December 2017, I had approached the court in Suit No: PHC/3944/2017 (Royal Mogeni Appia vs Ijaw National Congress) asking the court to compel the Ijaw National Congress to appear before it and defend itself for proclaiming Abua a 'Clan' of the Ijaw in its January 10, 2009 constitution that became the root of all citations that claim Abua people to be Ijaws. For the avoidance of doubt, the Ijaw, through their apex sociocultural organization, the Ijaw national Congress had in page 8 of their January 10, 2009 Constitution declared in article 10, Under Clan Level of Congress, that: "The following clans / sub-clans, groups of clans are hereby recognized within the three Zones of Congress as listed below and shall each operate as a Clan level of Congress and for this purpose be called a clan". They then went on to list ABUA in their CENTRAL ZONE in the same article 10 as a " Clan" of the Ijaw ethnic nationality among other Ijaw clans in Bayelsa State. As a historian with speciality in the intergroup relations of the ancient peoples of Delta, I found that extremely insulting and provocative to a people with an enviable history that spans over three thousand years. Thus, I south amongst others:

1. A DECLARATION that the Ijaw National Congress (INC) Constitution 2009/Article that cite/define Abua as a clan in Ijaw is illegal, null and void. 6. AN ORDER restraining the Defendant by himself, it's affiliates or through proxy from further publishing and addressing Abua as a clan under Ijaw or any other tribe .

It is gratifying to learn through the Constitution of the Ijaw National Congress, 2019 a copy of which I have just been availed, that the Ijaw National Congress, on the eve of the judgement that was delivered 9 July 2019 - precisely on Friday, June 28, 2019 hurriedly amended it's constitution and DELETED ABUA from the entire document as I sought. My sincere thanks goes to all the eminent and distinguished Ijaw leaders of thought who participated as members of the Constitution Review Committee. Now, knowing whom we are as ABUA people - that our future is in our hands - we can now stand up, irrespective of how difficult, time consuming and painful it would be and redefine ourself. We can now - as unaligned group, lay claim to being marginalized and hope to be accorded the recognition we deserve. We can now than ever, fight our way to genuine, and unlimited prosperity, closing ranks as equals to any group we chose to partner with rather than being coarsed into a relationship wherein we were being considered to be a subservient and beggarly group. This does not however, in anyway imping on the right of any Abuan to in exercise of his freedom of association, identity with the Ijaw National Congress. What it does however, is that SUCH PERSONS CAN ONLY DO SO ON THEIR PERSONAL CAPACITY. Therefore, henceforth, the presence of Chapter(s) of the Ijaw National Congress in Abua should not be misinterpreted to mean that Abua people are Ijaws. It is the right of any socio-cultural organization to establish Chapter(s) anywhere in Nigeria including in Abua Land.


After all, in Article 11 (b) i & ii of the new constitution (The Constitution of the Ijaw National Congress, 2019), the Ijaw National Congress has assured that their presence in a given territory should not be misconstrued to mean expression of ownership of such teritory by the Ijaw. Hear them; i. There shall be a Chapter of the Congress in a town or village which is not within or completely within the recognized Clans of Congress provided that the participating membership of Congress in the town or village is not less than One Hundred (100) persons. ii. Such town or village where a Chapter is established shall not be wholly indigenous to Ijaw territory. I celebrate the Ijaw National Congress for this bold step. I thank the Ijaws for by the tenets of their new constitution (The Constitution of the Ijaw National Congress, 2019), admitting that Abua is a distinct tribe and ethnic nationality from the theirs. I thank the now, late, Chief Ishmeal Alali Sampson, the delectible Chief Raymond Tom Oyil and the Abua Youth Council Worldwide under the dynamic leadership of Comrade Odema Ipeghan Matthew for rising to the challenge when it mattered most and given me the support I so dearly needed. Our Abua identity is our first heritage. I thank Abua for Abua for the opportunity to express myself.


Abuan Eboom!

HRM, KING ROYAL MOGENI APPIA THE OOLA EELHE AWEUSA AND OPHELEGBE AKE ABUAN (King of the Kingdom of Aweusa and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces and Minister of Defence of the entire ABUA nation).

It is Igbo, then Efik, then Ibibio then Edo
not everything is sentiment. Ijaw is 2 local governments in Bayelsa. Yenegoa is not even IJaw. Meanwhile Efik is strong in 2 states + Cameroon

Ogoni is bigger than Ijaw

I believe gradually he will open London to Enugu, but politics will have to permit, which I don't believe the will under Tinubu. Though Ndiigbo as a whole have to begin utilizing the power of lawsuits against the government when the come with their nonsense. Otti threatened to sue the Federal Government over the lack of a port. Lets see where it goes, but if it's enough pressure then others should follow

One of the reasons why NNPC can not supply local refineries is because Buhari government sold crude oil in advance in a contract that ends in June

There was a press conference he was with Trump in. Trump put a pile of papers infront of him and the idiot just began signing like a school boy. Trump was smiling like a cooked he-goat the entire time. That's when I knew that mugu was selling us live on camera. They didn't even talk they just shook hands and the papers came.

I have never seen one head of state hover over another while the other is face down signing papers alone on camera like a chimp

abuzz33:


In America, waste, water, streets, schools, tax, police are under the purview of local government. Who makes up local government? People living in the community. In Nigeria we funnel external resources to someone answering governor to be in charge of allocating it to local government in places he hardly knows and we wonder why there is so much theft and irresponsibility in government.

Soludo did one good thing in Awka and that was put an honest hard working Awka man in charge of ACTDA. The roads got patched quickly, the squatter shacks along roads removed.

But for sustainability this model should be a city or town development agency run by qualified honest indigenes with clear cut responsibilities and oversight from both state and eminent leaders to prevent abuse.

The truth is, the Nigerian and American systems are extremely similar. One issue is the Local Governments do not do anything in Nigeria. People except the bare minimum from them and they deliver the bare minimum. And I actually think the SE local governments are the best, it is worst in other regions. Some regions they dont even know there's such a thing as Local Government Chair etc.

Everything you listed is also supposed to be handled by the local government but they're honestly more corrupt and useless than the governors. Governors are celebrities so everyone puts their eyes on them. When we start pressuring local governments, we will see a BIG change because no superman state government can do all of that for thousands of communities.

Every now and then we get news of conflict between Shiites and the state, or Shiites and Sunni. A lot of news and happenings from the north don't make it to the south and I could imagine it's also the other way around.

This thread isn't to cast judgement, everywhere in Nigeria, every state and every local government, has some sort of conflict. I have dedicated this year to learning more about the current affairs of the other parts of Nigeria so don't read this as a religious or tribal question. Our understanding in the south is 'Sunni and Shiite don't like each other', but I know there's more to understand than this.

Like all Nairaland threads, aimless people will wander in and try to cause trouble but I will only focus on mature adults.
