And in every other days the police and armies that mount check points, carry AK 47 to rob and kidnap people against their will is lawful in nature.

Crime is crime but it becomes terrorism once it becomes organized like IPOB and their sit at home.

SHUT UP, YOU MENTALLY COLONISED, IGNORANT BUFFOONS.

Benin City was described as one of the world's most beautiful cities by European visitors from the 1500s through to the late 1600s.

It had street lights powered by palm oil, underground drainage, and large multi-storeyed buildings and public monuments. A city described as being so crime-free that the people did not bother to build FRONT DOORS to their houses, because theft was ''UNKNOWN''.

The emperors of Benin built a massive wall surrounding the entire kingdom, and even walls separating cities and villages, as a form of military defence against invaders, and the wall was recorded in the 1974 and 1982 Guinness Book of Records, and being the largest man-made structure ON EARTH.

1834 drawing of Benin City by English visitor, Mary Evans, showing a vibrant city with large monuments and public buildings. This was 63 years before the British invasion of Nigeria, and destruction, bombardment of Benin City, whose inhabitants fought gallantly and desperately to defend their city from the invading British vandals.

So this whole idea that Nigerians needed ''white people'' to become ''civilised'' is a BIG FAT LIE.

If anything, contact with them stunted our development.

To prove me right that nothing is left of your village mud house empire you came up with a sketch drawing which is nothing but imagination of the artist.Show us the ruins of your great village empire or get the fück outta my mention.

The ethnic bigots are looking and pretending to be among those who are happy that Davido and Chioma are getting married until it is time for elections. Then, they will remember that Chioma is Igbo and not Yoruba like her husband, meaning that her children cannot contest in Osun state elections because according to their bigotry reasoning, the children are not "full" Yorubas.

This was how they brought us to square one in the last elections, and see where we are today. If not that I am making a conscious effort to remain a good Christian, I would have joined Johnny Drille in his Palava song to say: "If you be bad belle, your father", but I will leave you to God, your conscience, and the price of bread in your area. Mtchwww!!!

#PurestPurity

Just congratulate them and move on.Davido's uncle is governor of Osun state his mother is Igbo and he speaks Igbo fluently.They only do that nonsense in Lagos state due to Tinubu's negative political influence.

Stop spreading fake news. Her death had nothing to do with sit at home, I'm an Anambrarian. AVG(Anambra Vigilantee Group) chased kidnappers who had attempted a kidnap at a Hotel in Nnewi, to the border between Nnewi and Nnobi and engaged the kidnappers in a gunbattle there

The youg girl was unfortunately there at the time and was hit by a stray bullet

This was a case of criminality and had nothing to do with sit at home

Sit at home itself is criminal in nature and all manners of criminality is perpetuated every monday in the name of sit at home.
Any crime committed on mondays IPOB takes the credit.

babasolution:
Go and search for them online

Bini city have nothing left of their mud thatch houses they called great city.
You do not expect mud thatch houses to survive in a rain forest region like Bini and mud houses can't make a city great.

babasolution:
Go to Benin,they will show you

It should be online or no evidence of what you claim?
There are picture evidence of ruins of great cities around the world.

bigpicture001:
Net nwoke ia consulting heavily with his people on creation of Anioma who already has igbo as its ethnic group....ppl of current aouth east shld allow Anioma to becreated and join the south east region....it far advantagenious than dividing the south east already too congested and no spacious region...

Anioma.will bring with it population and land ....its a wekcome.development from.Ned

Nobody is saying no to ANIOMA state creation and it will be great if they join SE but we shouldn't put all our eggs in one basket.
Ned Nwoko knew there is a lot of opposition forces that are against merging Anioma with SE in Anioma land the reason he told them recently what is important is for Anioma state to be created that whether they will be in SS or SE is secondary go and watch the video.

babasolution:
Benin city was the most developed African city for centuries,Benin had reached its peak before the coming of the whiteman.

There was no society,kingdom or state greater than Benin for centuries not the least the societies of the majority tribes in Nigeria. They've got nothing on BENIN.

Infact the whiteman facilitated it's decline.

Today Benin city is reduced to ruins and nothingness.

A ruined city filled with drugs and crime.

It's inhabitants are no more the hard workers and developers their ancestors were.

They have thrown away their garb of greatness for Nigeria.

All they have left is a symbol of the past- the Oba.

Isn't it time for Benin to rise again.

Can you show us the ruins of the greatest African city?

bigpicture001:
The author is a fool...Anioma adding time south east us better than alrwady south eastern states dividing again to make them.more micro...

With Anioma, population increases,with Anioma territory expands...

Ned nwoko is the bomb! Keep it up sir

People of southeast should continue pushing for a sixth state within the region because ndi kwe ndi ekwegi will not allow ANIOMA STATE see the light of the day and even if it does anti Igbo forces may not agree to join them with SE.
We better make use of our senses than our usual emotions.

ShinnBet:
Logout already.


Your lies have been discarded to the waste bin they belong.

Point it you or keep quiet.Highlight my lies for the world to see.

Oyibos are abandoning christianity also as churches gets empty every day.

TheChameleon:
Njoku ran like a coward. Typical

Okay tell him when you meet him you hear

helinues:
My point is, why are some people still blaming Wike for the current Rivers crises when there are disgruntled politicians within the state having personal problem with Gov Sim

All the disgruntled elements in Rivers state are in Wike's camp.

Ukwa youths should be given pipeline security contract.

Zxcvbnmghtr:
State Police?! Lol that will be so abused by State Governors. Imagine if Kano State runs a State Police under their vindictive governor. By now, Kano for don turn to Sudan.

Is Nigeria police not been abused today by those in authority?

helinues:


Fubara is no longer fighting Wike but the politicians in Rivers state which Sim cut off their jobs or income

Una expect the dissolved LG bosses to clap for the governor after removing them from the office ?

So the local government chairmen are autocrats that rule forever.Wike should have continued in office after his tenure expired.

Christistruth00:
Question

What was Col Hilary Njoku looking at

He was with Ironsi at the same time

Why did he flee instead of rescuing Ironsi

This is nothing but a conspiracy theory.
When you see him you can ask him that question.

Christistruth00:
Ironsi did Something O!

Of the 13 Troop Formations in Nigeria
a staggering 11 were under Eastern Region Officers

The Battalion at Ibadan had Akahan as it's GOC only because the Northern Soldiers there were enraged at having their.last 2 Northern GOCs brutally murdered and were only willing to have a Northern GOC because they had completely lost trust in the Southern Officers

Could you blame them?

If he did something he would probably be alive today and would have remove Danjuma as his chief security officer.
Anyway those are in the past and all the actors from the East are dead R.I.P to them all.

LadyExcellency:
The Army is the one enforcing the sit-at-home in Aba.

Why are you deceiving yourself?
It is a shame that such an important commercial and industrial city like Aba gets involve in sit at home every monday.

Christistruth00:
Many People have evidence that Gen Ironsi was Part of the Jan 1966 Coup

That said Muritala Mohammed was also part of the July 1966 Coup but it was not Muritala that started the Coup Crisis



Gen Ironsi was the head of the Army and was responsible for Providing Security for those murdered by his Army boys

For example Brigadier Ademulegun's Security details were secretly changed in the Middle of the night without his knowledge

Only Gen Ironsi was Authorised to do that
That was the very honest bitter Truth.


Secondly Azikiwe went Abroad because he knew of the planned Coup
The British intelligence contacted Dr Azikiwe’s Doctors in the UK who confirmed there was
nothing wrong with Azikiwe and he was healthy enough to return to Nigeria, for the

Commonwealth Conference

After the Coup Azikiwe sent Gen Ironsi a Telegram from the British Colonial Office addressing Gen Ironsi as the Ruler of the Country before Ironsi had even taken over Power
It was after the Telegram was sent that the British Colonial Office corrected Azikiwe that Dipcherima from Borno was the head of the Rump Cabinet of Ministers and not Gen Ironsi

Thirdly after the Prime Minister was Kidnapped and Several People Killed Alhaji Ahmed Kurfi Went to the State House to see Gen Ironsi about the Missing Prime Minister
and found him at a meeting with Ifeajuna who had just killed Brigadier Maimailari and Prime Minister Balewa Present

Fourthly the Police had warned Gen Ironsi 2 weeks before about the Coup and had asked Gen Ironsi to arrest the officers planning the Coup because the police were not authorized to do

Gen Ironsi took no action and it Later turned out that the 5 names given to Gen Ironsi including Ifeajuna Nzeogeu , Onwategwu were the core coup plotters

The Problem is that the North believes Gen Ironsi had a hand in the Murder of their Leaders because he took no action to save their lives when ample evidence of a planned coup was presented to him

What is your point?
Ironsi was also warned that northern soldiers was planning a counter coup and he did nothing about it until he was killed.

gidgiddy:
Nigeria is a strange country. Honouring a man who came to power by the barrel of the gun is why others will one day try to get to power through the barrel of the gun

He is considered as a hero in some quarters due to the role he played during 1966 coup and the eventual civil war where they emerged victorious.All the officers that participated in that counter coup and eventual civil war were handsomely rewarded.Honouring Murtala Mohammed is part of it.Buhari is still reaping benefit of his participation,OBJ,IBB,Danjuma,Gowon etc...

DMerciful01:
Some people will not sleep tonight..OMOLUABI TO THE WORLD!!

The Yoruba ingrates are disrespecting their accomodators by contesting elections in UK.

Kaycee9242:
Exactly, I don't know why they hate otti, are they allergic to good governance?

They hate him because Alex Otti is performing beyond their imagination they would have preferred another Okezie Ikpeazu in Abia state government house so that they will continue to mock us.

gidgiddy:
When Obasanjo was military dictator in the 70's, he put the face of General Murtala Mohammed on the 20 Naira note. This was a huge error because Murtala Mohammed is not a role model for anyone. He was a murderous coup plotter, war criminal and military dictator. There was nothing positive about the man

How do you put Murtala Mohammed alongside the likes of Herbert Macaulay, Zik, Awolowo and Sarduana?

When Obasanjo returned as civilian, he had the opportunity to correct this national embarrassment of putting Murtala Mohammed on the N20 note. Obasanjo introduced the N200 and N500 and put eminently qualified people on it. He had the power to remove Murtala from the N20 Naira, but did not

Obasanjo needs to tender an apology for not correcting the mistake he made.

Murtala Mohammed was his boss and you expect him not to honor him?
The 20 naira noted is dying a natural death anyway

Mrexcell:
We really hope so the substandard flyover he built has since been abandoned the flyover looks like something that was built by local bricklayers.

Rochas was huge disappointment most his projects was substandard.

MrEverest:
There has been insinuations that North is “cooking” something for Nigerians. The visits in quick succession by Atiku and El Rufai to Buhari in the last of couple of days, have also added credence to it.

Firstly, for Atiku and Elrufai to visit Buhari and publicize it shows how unreasonable they are. This same Buhari is the cause of the cause of Nigeria’s present economic and political collapse. Buhari elevated bigotry to state policy and Tinubu has continued with it. Buhari ruined Nigeria’s economy the two times he ruled the country. Buhari caused the death of so many people including innocent youth corp members serving in the North, even when it was clear he lost an election. Juxtapose that with Obi who clearly won an election but was blatantly rigged out, yet he didn’t instigate Nigerians to soak monkeys and baboons in blood.

Atiku and El Rufai trying to give relevance to a villain shows how much they disdain Nigerians. It shows they’re unrepentant bigots who are still living in the past. It’s obvious that these two politicians & indeed most Muslim northern politicians haven’t learnt anything. They still have the illusion that the Islamic North is still in control and can determine what happens in Nigeria by themselves. Such nativity!

Someone should tell these people that they lost control the moment middle belt began to align with South. Without the MB, North is helpless!

If these people really want Tinubu to go, they really have to start using their brains now. Peter Obi won the election in 2023, with a relatively unknown party and an unpopular vice. Any idea that such a great man will stoop low to contest as vice to Atiku or El Rufai in 2027, is an insult and absurdity that will never happen.

Peter Obi will be the face of opposition in 2027, it’s left for the North to align with him and present a popular vice. Anything aside that will give Tinubu automatic 8 years, even if half of Nigerians starve to death.

All opposition parties should morph into one with Obi as flag bearer. Then there should be a massive campaign now for laws that would compel INEC to conduct a credible election.

Should Tinubu rule for 8 years, the biggest losers would be the North particularly and then all Nigerians. So, the North needs Peter Obi or and SE/SS and not the other way round.

I am a supporter of Peter Obi and wish he is the president of Nigeria today but you see those northerners all they cares about is power good governance means little to them.In fact they will prefer Tinubu to do his 8 years complete and return power to them than to allow Peter Obi win in 2027 for sake of good governance and democracy.Whatever they maybe cooking is for selfish interest of northern elites.
Probably they want Tinubu to do only one term and handover to them.
