flokii: This is why South West leaders be it traditional, religious and political need to act fast, think outside the box and put up a kind of periodic town hall meeting for our youths..
Stop giving out positions meant for Yorubas to outsiders.. Yoruba offsprings deserve to be gainfully employed in their own region, not to be engaged as thugs, agberos, internet fraudsters etc. Enough of the charity to outsiders while Yorubas are being neglected. Go to Abia state, they don't employ Imo indigenes or involve Enugu people in their state affairs. So why should people be travelling long distances to come and take up jobs from our youths?
Yoruba ronu! We must wake up from this deep slumber we have fallen into.
Which outsiders are taking positions meant for Yorubas in Osun,Ogun,Oyo,Ekiti,Ondo and even Lagos?
FreeStuffsNG: Is this feasible? From my understanding of the evolution of languages, sociological and geographical factors play more role than folks sitting down to create a language.
Take for example, it's recorded in authority books that Asaba is culturally related to the west than the East but as minorities that are geographically close to a dominant tribe, the Igbo language dorminated their language over time and soon reduced the influence of their original cultural relationships with their kith and kin in the Western region.
The same thing is happening in Ondo with the Apoi who are even in Ese Odo LGA and speak Yoruba more and for political reasons will rather use their broader Yoruba affinity and relationship available to them but not available to Ijaws in Rivers and Bayelsa to increase their chances of opportunities.
You will never know that some Yoruba from Ese Odo LGA, Ondo have Apoi roots perhaps until you are married to them or close to them. The Apois and Ilaje have very little difference yet the Ilaje are Yoruba but the Apois won't let go of their Yoruba affinity for obvious reasons.
So asking the Apoi to take on one central Ijaw language that gives him no special economic or political advantage over his Ilaje neighbour who is already using his Yoruba as an edge,in my opinion, is just an academic exercise. All around him,in schools, market, church, mosque, radio, TV, campaign ground, civil service secretariats, Banks, etc, they speak Yoruba which he can speak and has been speaking all his life and he even bears Yoruba names, his mother is probably Yoruba and you tell him to learn one language you are writing somewhere.
Haba. Kolewek o
How is Asaba related to the West and not to the East?
mightyhaze: Thanks... Now I got to see a picture of how Arthur unaegbe looked like.. I took an interest in him after reading Gen. Madiebos Revolution and Civil war accounts over 2 decades ago..
This is a senior Igbo officer killed for vehemently opposing a coup by officers drawn from all the regions of the county... For those who have been brainwashed to keep parroting that it was an Igbo coup..
Those that carried out that coup against a young nation should all rot in hellfire.
gidgiddy: Coalition of Northern Groups(CNG), put 100 million Naira on Nnamdi Kanu's head but have never put one single Kobo on any of the armed bandits killing them in the North like Southern Kaduna
What have this news got to do with Nnamdi Kanu? Does Southern Kaduna people have control over CNG?
madmohamed: Nndi Abia if you want to develop your State if you want good government if you want change is better for you to start planning how to remove PDP from Abia state.
As long as PDP is in charge of Abia state nothing will change you will remain in bondage
But not APC that want will bring more deadly force to ndi Abia. The killing of our youth in Abia will increase
The best option for you is APGA you can vote who ever you want as the President if you like if you don't like just vote for governor and go home because the president of Nigeria is useless as ikpeazu.
PDP is very useless in Abia APC will give you second uzodimma.
As Anambra I am I want my brother's from Abia to have something to say by 2023. Good government departments and accountability
Remove PDP know from Abia state. And make sure they never come back.
PDP Abia state branch is a curse to the state and have to be removed at all cost for the betterment and develpoment of ndi Abia. I don't think APGA have what it takes to remove PDP from power in Abia state. Ndi Abia voted for APGA in 2015 election and gave them overwhelming victory and yet the mandate was stolen from them by crooked PDP Abia state.Maybe only APC is capable of removing PDP from power and they are gradually buildng up their support base especially in Abia North.
i've been living under the fear of having a heart problem for more than five years, but my people refused that i should go for scan probably because of fear that it might be true, and there won't be money to care/treat it..
Even me, i'm afraid to go for scan, because the moment it is comfirmed to me, i don't kno if i would be able to live with it..
i can't run nor do hard work, my pulse is always high and sometimes my breathing stop totally.. I've fainted multiple times, and i've been living under depression for so long..
Now, this symptoms is increasing on daily basis, but my people dosn't want me to go for scan.. Is like they already knows the result will turn out positive.
But what if i go for scan an the result shows that i have a heart probem, how will i be able to live with it, knowing fully very well that we don't have the money to cure it..
I don't kno what to do nairalanders, i need advice..
Guy it is more dangerous to leave heart problem undiagnosed, you maybe suffering from Atrial fibrillation you can google it.The best thing to do is to visit a good Cardiologist for diagnosis and if confirmed it is treatable.Good luck to you.
mrvitalis: The gas project at oguta is going to power the oguta power plant ...the rest sent to eyimba industrial city and the new imo industrial city plus link up to the emene industrial estate
The only place that gas can go is bonny and it's not even going their there is no link between that gas station and the Akk
Go study the Nigeria gas master plan
Na pipeline engr I be sir
Ok all the best and may people of Imo state and SE in general enjoy the benefits of those gas reserves.
mrvitalis: AKK is warri ...ishekri gas ...reason then install this present olu ...them no burn them well to touch south east gas
Only shell is building something .. and all the gas would be consumed in south east
The only Igbo gas they can touch for now is anioma ,obigbo , omuma and etche ...but south east ,ndoni and egebema in rivers them no born them well
The Gas plant they are building somewhere in Egbema/Oguta is for what?
Seplat Energy plans to set in motion by June 2022 its own share of the gas manufacturing project it jointly holds with the Nigerian Gas Company (NGC) in Assa North-Ohaji South, Imo State, which experts say ranks among the country's biggest gas condensate development projects.Nov 11, 2021.
The biological father is not necessarily the husband of the mother. His real father was the lete elder brother of K.O Tinubu and Ganiyu Tinubu.
Ogunlere was the man who married the mum from her youth in Iragbiji (step father).
I don't have problem with Orji Uzor Kalu or any other aspirants and more enlightened than you who try to run aspirants down only to promote another. I don't do such petty things...the sky is wide enough for all the birds to fly together.
gidgiddy: Same way there was no consensus for Igbos to ever be part of Nigeria. Self determination does not need consensus, it only needs majority. When it comes to biafran agitation, others were doing it before Kanu. MASSOB, BZF and BN were all there before IPOB and they are still there
British colonial power defeated indigenous people to create Nigeria, now can IPOB defeat Nigeria to create Biafra? Last time we tried we know the result.
owobokiri: Who are the so called "Igbo stakeholders"? Do you think we run a feudal/monarchical set up of "The Lords and the serfs" in the East? How can the warped views of an imaginary " Igbo stakeholders", who are eternally beholden to the whims and caprices of an evil Abuja, be more important than the verdict found in the total compliance to IPOB orders by the teaming millions in the East?
And do you really think that Nnamdi Kanu can use force and coercion to close the Onitsha main market for instance? You think they majority don't subscribe to his ideals but are just being frightened away from their source of livelihood? Get real bro! That you hate a movement shouldn't blind you to the real impact and substance of such movement..
If the sit at home is voluntary why is there enforcers and casualties very Monday? Why was Onitsha main market chairman shot dead for opening the market for business on a Monday to enforce sit at home.
gidgiddy: The issue of independence of the Igbo nation is not a burden Nnamdi Kanu should carry alone, he is but one man. It is the duty of all Igbos to rise up, tell Nigerians that Nigeria has failed, and ask for democratic referendum.
Nnamdi Kanu or no Nnamdi Kanu is not going to hide the fact that Nigeria is a failed nation heading no where. So rather anyone waiting for Nnamdi Kanu, who is in DSS solitary confinement, we should all join or form independence movements and press home our demand for referendum
Was there any consensus from Igbo stake holders that solution to Igbo marginilization in today's Nigeria is secession before Nnamdi Kanu embarked on such a dangerous rout?Did he consult with anyone before he formed his group? Biafra agitation is seen as his project and the very reason they lock down a region by force because of one man.
gidgiddy: It is the right of the Igbo nation to decide if they want to be part of Nigeria or not. Nobody is a prisoner of Nigeria. We keep forgetting that Nigeria is the mere colonial concoction of the British and that Igbos have the inalienable right of self determination
What is Nnamdi Kanu asking for? Referendum. What is bad in conducting referendum let the Igbo nation choose their destiny? If "one Nigeria" is by force, then it is evil
What is stopping Nnamdi Kanu from demanding for that referendum and make case for it as he stands trial in law court for treason rather than pleading not guilty.He should put his money where his mouth is.Its a great opportunity for him to demand for Biafra freedom instead he is busy with his legal team looking for a soft landing to be freed on bail so that he will come out and continue to deceive gullible youths with fake Biafra restoration agitation.Law Court is the right place to challenge FG to grant East the right for self determination not in the streets or social media, why is he running away from it? He even denied being a member of the group he founded . Buhari in his interview said Nnamdi Kanu will given the opportunity to defend himself and say all those things he was saying against Nigeria from abroad.Instead of MNK to stand his ground for Biafra he is pleading not guilty.
Nde Ngwa can't keep power beyond 2023.There is nothing like Old Bende and Old Aba in today's political equation. He should embrace the reality of today which are 3 senatorial zones of which there is existing agreement for power to rotate between the 3 senatorial zone to avoid marginalization of any zone.
heniford2: are you explain to him maybe he thinks Media hyping igbere in bende local government i once dated this beautiful girl from that side chia may her soul Rest in peace
Misterdhee1: Based on what metrics? Education? Infrastructure? Security or what exactly? Abia no pass two communities in Ibadan and yet it’s still battling for survival thanks to the foolish leaders you guys have been voting in
I am talking about Abia state vs Osun state where Tinubu hail from wetin concern Ibadan inside this matter?
