I believe $15m will about enough if not enough to fix that road yet some jobless youth from that region are busy carrying placards crying foul just for peanut. so unfortunate that they forgot their collective wealth were been carter away by few individuals "they give them the sickness then provide them with the cure" may God help the youth of this generation. Amen

You want to hurry and make it in life. you push drugs abroad only to come back home to be a big man/woman not minding the consequences if caught the only thing that come to your mind is i want to make it. your enthusiasm and passion dedication and drive made you a tool in the hands of the Baron's but at the end you die they live the money you chased you end up leaving behind what a shame and a waste of destiny. RIP to the dead, the living learn from this hustle in the right way.

What my left hand does,my right hand shouldn't know about. Sorry mate, wrong number.

Spare me the crap am not your mate and stop running your mouth as you gave her the whole world.

sapiosexual1:
This lady is terminally ill, let's give her a dignified exit, devoid of all these controversies

Based on what parameters?
What is the histological type and grade of her ovarian malignancy? That is all we need to know if it's a scam or not. We don't need sentimental religious leaders or organizations telling us what they want us to believe.
The bolded can only be provided by her managing oncologist, evidenced by the histology report.
The Sheikhs and Imams are already involved, thus we know how it's gonna end........ quietly

EBOLA SCARE, TRUE TEST OF LOVE
By isaiah ola-speaker

In the early hours, on the 8th august, 2014 a day when 80% of Nigerians took there bath before 5am in the morning. At exactly 4:45am i got a call from a friend in Kafanchan followed by a call from a family friend in Ibadan, my sister who live in Oshogbo and my secondary school mate Yusuf in Kaduna also called me, all telling me to drink and bath with warm salt water to avoid contracting the Ebola virus at first i was confused i then immediately text a friend in Zamfara. Getting to my senses i quickly rushed to my phone
to get info from the internet to my surprise what i got was disappointing salt does not cure or prevent contracting the Ebola virus! What then happened that neighbors have to wake their self that early?, what could have prompt a well known enemies to wake each other up this early even when they are both having a good rest probably sweet dreams?, what exactly is going on that no one thinks of the tribe, ethnicity, region, religion or even political affiliation of his or her neighbor before waking them up?. Nobody think whether if his or her neighbor is a southerner or a northerner before rolling the drum everyone became a town crier even before the day was dawn.

Hmmm........so we've been pretending all along. Ha! Ha!! So it is true that Musa called Chinedu, Kayode text Onome, Amaechi actually knocks the door of Akor, so it is true that Joseph woke Abdullahi up. Chai!!! Was i dreaming when i saw the call from Yusuf my old friend in secondary school? So it is true Amaka gave Amina salt, so it is true bimbo actually boiled water for Chinyere. Could this be love or pretence? If we love ourselves this much that we don't want our next neighbor to die of a deadly virus like Ebola why then do we fight each other? What is the point? Ebola is a deadly virus that has no designated cure for now, a Virus that kills within few days of contracting it. Knowing all this yet we don't want our next neighbor to die even when we claimed not to love each other and perceive ourselves as enemies.

Though the news was fake and salt couldn't have cured or prevented someone from contracting Ebola but who could have thought of this that within a few hours the news would have gotten to millions of Nigerians and circulate through the entire country.

So we cared this much for someone we despised so much, or are we just pretending that we cared? No 80% of Nigerians couldn't have denied themselves their much needed sleep only to disguised under the pretence of love and care. This is a true sign of love and affection from a nation, a true test of a nation who thinks it hate itself but actually don't, a nation that thought it is polarize and divided through tribes, ethnicity, regionalism, religion and political affiliations, a nation where a southerner perceived a northerner as his enemy and a northerner sees a southerner as his foes, a true test of a nation where it citizens couldn't help to see their neighbor died an horrible death of Ebola virus, a nation that shows a real affection, care and love for one another. Why are we then pretending we despise each other? Why is it so difficult to integrate this love in our national life? I just couldn't get it, Why the pretence of hate? Why the hypocrisy? Why did we denied ourselves our much needed sleep just to see to the well being of our neighbors, friends and family? Why can't we imbibe this love and affection in our day-to-day activities? Why can't we for once look to the face of that person we cared for and said i care for you?.

The news is fake salt does not cure or prevent Ebola the virus has no cure but whoever that conceived this idea and broke this news whether he or she may God bless him or her for he or she has put our great nation to a test of true love and affection.

focus7:
I don't normally respond to issues like this to avoid unnecessary contention but I take pleasure in educating a sentimental ignorance where I found one. To start with about me showing you the statistic, one does not need to dig out the past report of which I have them in abundant of the crimes that committed, you can start your own record now by just taking a week to two weeks analysis of the crimes report involving Nigerian both within and outside Nigeria to decide your statistic. 2. We are not talking of population we are talking of crime rate. You won't help your people come out of criminality with your bias, it will amaze you the numbers of Uche, Emeka, Chinedu, Nnamdi and the rest of such name from the SE region that are arrested from other part of Nigeria and outside Nigeria for diverse crime related issues. Whenever they commit this acts outside Nigeria and they are called Nigerian the stigma smears on us all.

please can you help me with the crime rate/statistics in Nigeria for 2015 especially that of zamfara state? Thanks and i will appreciate it if you can

PFRB:
Shameless woman. She is irrelevant in the current scheme of things.

Irrelevant yet you keep commenting on the thread she is mentioned

fearNORTH:
Obviously this man is being persecuted.

we want the government to fight corruption but not single out one individual and take his case personal.

How will you detain someone and deny him access to his lawyer...

Is the govt afraid or what??

where did you get your own version from

magicminister:
For crying out loud, some of the biggest successes from Nigeria were all trained abroad.

You lie there name one trained abroad and i will name five trained in NIGERIA

this same mentality is why the dollar will continue to rise

koikoi2:
Buhari is a coward. How many mouth him get? Last time he said they don't hv evidence against Diezani, now he said Nigeria's biggest criminal is living in UK. How does she become a criminal when u don't hv any evidence against her to prove that.
What a big embarrassment our dullard presido is putting us.

Just listen to yourself did the president mention any name? suddenly you have concluded and manufactured one just to blame the President now between you and PMB who is the dullard

austin2all:
Wait make rain start first

No matter the rain that building is unshakable

if GEJ called leaving office while clearly defeated sacrifice and some are going crazy about it what then will he call resignation indeed african leaders are driven by greed

BushidoBlue:
Oga yes I have run several organisations so your premise is challenged because I dare not present a budget for the year to Finance department without properly digesting the figures
The issue seems to be arithmetic not policy, vis a vis the check mating of policies by the legislative.

Wait I forgot ministers were sworn in after 6 months, budget released 2 months later and now excuses and the defence of mediocrity coming from people like you.

When you begin to understand that you need to hold them responsible for their actions the better for you.

I'm not defending anybody neither will i take mediocrity as an excuse but what am saying is this if you in your opinion thinks at this moment Nigeria can have a flawless budget you are only having a pipe dream reason being The level at which corruption as eaten into our system is mega irrespective of how intense PMB corruption crusade may be some body some where in the ministries will still make this budget PMB is to give the vission the ministers are to guide while the civil servant in the ministries actualize it but above all it a good thing that our legislatures are now standing up to their responsibility before now this kind of discrepancy wouldn't have been spotted

BushidoBlue:
Are you saying Buhari and his 36 ministers are incompetent??

Sometimes you need to listen to yourself before you type or talk.

You can only understand this if youbhave head a an organization before. as big as Nigeria is did you think PMB and his minister alone can do all the paper work? stop deceiving yourself the function of the legislature is to also check mate the executive

ShowYourCertificate:
Did Buhari not go through the budget before signing? Didn't his cabinet members go through the budget before ratifying it? Didn't the Budget Office scrutinise the budget before presenting it to Buhari? How come they didn't notice this? Or are they complicit?

This APC government is a total joke and a complete scam.

Stop being naive no matter how buhari scrutinized the budget there will still loopholes. instead of criticizing the innocent man you should appreciate his effort to see that government is run transparently at least the legislature are now sitting up to there responsibility of checkmating the executive so many budget have passed that chamber with so many loopholes without anyone nothing it.....

Here we are again LASTMA officials said no accident happen police confirmed the accident which one to believe and the woman is wealthy.......

Sometimes i bewildered if Nigerians acclaim educated are educated and civilize at all why on earth will someone post a fake news to mystify the public also insteads of people to visit the link provided by the OP they only read the headline and jump to conclusion

7footre:
We all know this scheme is not sustainable and the school will be worst off when the food is no longer available

No you are wrong it can be sustain it all depends on what government will come on board after this one. state like zamfara have been practicing one meal per day for a long time now and it work and sustainable Nigeria is bless all we need is the sincerity of those who manage our wealth

whether fabricated or not the truth is bitter if Nigeria is a good country where corruption as not eaten the good of it no one will see reason to write or say something of such the question is how many Yankees are in Nigeria? equate it to the number of Nigerians over there then you will understand that whoever wrote or said this is doing us a favour that is if we can still reason with our brain as a nation

oshyno:
I just wish this won't be a case of arrest, detain and then start investigation.

On a flip side I just love d way buhari is looking at sectors and trying to stamp out corruption. Every oga at the top wud be apprehensive as to if buhari will beam his search light on them.

What I hate with a passion is how EFCC is going about the whole stuff. There is too much media propaganda. They don't seem to do thorough investigation. If not we will be by now be seeing people on handcuffs and sweating in jail.

Don't blame EFCC blame the corrupt judges who preside on this cases, it is clear the judges are frustrating the effort of the anti-graft agencies

HIGHESTPOPORI:
If the Apc chieftain was released after 8hrs cos he returned 100m out of d 170m he collected from Dasuki,all d PDP cheiftains should be released also when they return any money collected from Dasuki for us to know dat this is not a witchunt by d Federal Govt!

Let them return it first

ElekeNtioba:
Of the three African-born judges in the entire United States, two are Igbos.

Nigeria continues to emasculate Igbos while they keep making great strides abroad.

LOL..........great stride abroad you said what about at home at the end who win and who lose after them giving their all in a foreign land they will one day come back and meet their devastated homeland the way they left it.

tuale4u:
I agree with sagay completely.

thank God Prof Itse sagay is from delta state and south south.\
This further proof South South are not willing to be part of crazy Biafra.

Igbo Marginalisation is a Big Fat Lie. It is Just a Propaganda[/size]

There has been a lot of shout of marginalisation by South East part of Nigeria since after May 29th, 2015. This is a lie that have been said too long which is now looking like true because others have refused to come out and correct this big lie. I will like to address most of the points use in spreading this lie. What we have in Nigeria is tribal competition and not Marginalisation.

1. They Claim Igbo need to score like 70% while the North need to score 5% to gain admission to Federal govt Secondary School

This point is highly flawed. First of all, the requirement of high cut off mark for admission in Federal govt Secondary School is not limited to South East. South west (Yoruba) and South South also require high cut off to gain same admission. This in itself is not marginalization. This in itself is an inclusion policy in order to ensure the educational weak North still have access to Federal govt College. Despite the cut off differences, South east, south west and south south still dominate the federal govt colleges admission. I believe it would have been marginalisation if we subject the north to the the same cut off as us in the south. Because they would not have been able to compete because they are weak in educational capacity. Policy of inclusion and diversity is a global practice. Multinationals companies are compelled to include people of all race, disability, religion, sexual orientation and gender in their workforce. This is a United Nation mandate. This means there is a minimum percentage of a group of people that must be in the workforce even if there are more capable people in another group to fill up the space. A society that have no space for the weak is not a fair and just society.

2. The North dominate Federal Civil Service due to quota system

This is another big lie. It has been proven than Imo State has the highest number of federal civil servant followed by kogi and Ogun state in Nigeria. By geopolitical zone, south west has the highest, followed by North central, south south third, south east fourth, North west and north east are the last two. The south is 61% of the total Nigeria federal civil servant while the north is 39%. The only thing I may agree with is that some northerners may have risen faster than some of their southern colleagues. However this has been highly corrected in the last 16 years of Democracy. In the last 16years the South has been in Position of President for 13years and the North 3years. As at May 29th, 2015 there were more permanent secretaries of southern origin than northerners. Currently the head of civil service is a southern woman from Cross river State.

3. Federal road in South east are bad because of marginalization.

This is another lie. Marginalization is not responsible for bad state of south east federal road. Two factors are responsible. Soil type and corruption. In the last 16years almost all the ministers of work have been from south south. From Tony Anenih, to odion Ugbesia to Mike Onolimemhen. Who among this people will want to marginalised south east? To bring my point home on the issue of soil type and corruption, Onitsha -Owerri road was completed less than 8years ago, today the road is already dilapidated. if you spend the same money used for that road in a northern road, it will last 20years or more. Instead of the contractors to do the road by putting the soil type into consideration, because of corruption the roads are poorly done and money are pocketed. If you go and find out who the contractors are you will discover that there are a lot of southerners involve in sharing the money.

4. South east is marginalized because of Unemployment and poverty
This is another twisted statement. I believe there are more poverty and unemployment in the North than in the South. The truth is that unemployment in Nigeria is a national problem. There is poverty everywhere in Nigeria. Unemployed youth are all over the country.

5. There are more northerners in NNPC than Southerners
This is another big lie. There are no more northerners in NNPC. Actually there are slightly more southerners in NNPC. NNPC usually recruit many of their staffs by quota system. Today we have 19 northern states and 17 southern state. This will make it appear you will have slighty more northerners. This may be true before 1999. But since Gaus Obaseki from Edo state became NNPC GMD, he changed the recruitment structure. While about 60% of recruitment are still base on quota system, about 40% are base on merit. This has greatly changed the statistics of NNPC staffs. And also in general in the Oil and gas industries, more than 70% of the staffs are southerners. Yoruba and Igbo dominate the oil and gas industry in Nigeria. Those of us from south south even feel marginalized by Yoruba and Igbo when it come to oil and gas Job

6. South east is marginalised because they have five(5) states while others have six (6) states.
This is more of political competition than marginalization. About 13 Northern states each are bigger in size than all the South East states combined. Kogi state is the 13th biggest state in Nigeria. Kogi State size is 29833km sq. If you add up the size of all the south east state it is 29095km sq. Thus the whole south east combined is approximately the same size with Oyo State, the 14th biggest state in Nigeria. The whole of south east is one-third of South south. The argument mostly put forward by Igbo on this topic is that state should be shared by population only and size should not be considered. With the small size of south east in relative to other region, south east is suppose to have maximum of 3 states. It is the consideration of the population and their political strength that makes it 5 states. I believe the population has been strongly considered.

7. Igbo Presidency
This is another area where you hear plenty lie on marginalization propanganda. In other to fully discuss this issue we need to look at Nigeria history briefly. In the beginning of Independence in 1960, Nigeria politics was dominated by Igbo and Hausa/Fulani. The Yoruba were the one who were playing Opposition. From 1960 to 1966 before the first coup, Nigeria federal govt was more Hausa and Igbo government at the centre. While Tafawa balewa was prime minister , Nnamdi Azikiwe was President (though ceremonial but he was number one citizen of the country). Then came the first coup which made Igbo man the First Military head of State of Nigeria. After that, it became from one coup to another which was dominated by the North. This in itself was not marginalization. It was simply dog eat dog affair and purely military affair and power struggle. Then came democracy in 1979 to 1983, this again became Hausa and Igbo government. Yoruba was now the opposition. after that came coup. Yes the military govt became northern dominated. but I cant call it marginalization because this were simply power struggle among opportunist. Then came 1999 and democracy. There was a kind of gentleman agreement or understanding of power sharing from south to North. We must understand that the power sharing was not by geopolitical zone but by region. Obasanjo who is from south did 8 years, the govt moved to North in the name of Yar adua. from North it came to south through Jonathan who did approximately 6 years. From Jonathan it went to the North through Buhari. If Buhari do his 8 years it will come to the South again in 2023. This in itself have been very fair and just. Nigeria democracy from 1999 has been fair to both North and South. By 2023, South East need to play the right politics for them to get presidency in 2023. Because 2023 presidency is for the south not for the south east. As far as the Northern part of Nigeria is concern, 2023 should be southern presidency. The truth is that South East, South West and South South will compete for it. Nobody will just give you the presidency just like that without you playing the right politics. If Igbo continue to make almost every other part of Nigeria their enemy, south south or south west will get 2023 presidency. Should South west or South South win 2023 presidency nobody can call it marginalization. It is the same Igbo that are claiming marginalization who are Supporting Wike an Ikwrere man in Rivers state. From Omehia, to Amaechi to Wike are all Ikwerre. Ikwerre and upland have been ruling rivers state for 17 years now (Since 1999). Yet the greatest supporters of Wike (an Ikwerre and upland) are Igbo in rivers state. This is one big hippocracy. You claim you are politically marginalised yet you are promoting exactly the same thing in rivers state. Just as I said, losing in a political competition is not marginalization. Wike (upland) winning dakuku (riverine) is not marginalization but political competition.


In summary, there is only one form of marginalization in Nigeria. That is the marginalization of the masses by the political class. Where the political class eat fat while the masses are left to die in squalor.

I salute your intellectual sagacity

WOCKHARDI:
What sort of evidence do you want. Do you not know that evidence can be obliterated?
You see a pregnant woman and you want somebody to produce evidence where she was having sex. Who financed APC extravagant campaigns. Evidence ko, result ni.

is it difficult to pick up the challenge? if so then shotup

Karlovich:
So amaechi and fashola are not corrupt? We all expected Dullardinhho to appoint saints but he still chose recycled theives.

present your evidence the president himself as challenge you stop false allegations and present facts that they are corrupt

bigtt76:
This man na confirmed Agbaya ....not supporting Davido though but I mean Dele Momodu should know better than do this naaaa

You should also know that there is still law in this country and dele momodu is a journalist.

uncleinans:
pls ehh, show me where in the report that state that koro went to usa to study nigeria history. and which of the case i mentiond that has not been to court?

seriously, your parent need to seek for refund from the high school you attended cause they dint do anything.

it a pity that as simple as the phrase "probably" is you can't understand chai! (in mama peace voice) i now understand your problem

uncleinans:
i ask you if nigerians no they go abroad go study law come back, you no fit answer. you come back come shout say who be president when all those cases happen, mind you, many was under obj and yar adua. now i give one way happen just yesterday, under your bubu and you still they sound like broken disco record.

hope say bubu go answer him own case of SUV and 300k$ way him take from dasuki gate?
e rat like you. no go use your life do better thing, they here they defend apc thiefs from pdp thiefs.

a lecturer once told me that there is no stupid question so i will answer you but first to deliver you from this your stupidity might be a bit difficult.
1. koro going to another man's country to probably study his own history and you seeing nothing with that shows your stupidity as no bound if the likes of koro in the said country had not fixed the education system in their country will he koro go there to study "history"? if not that you lack common sense to reason and that is why you never sees anything wrong with those who go on education tourism abroad especially the politicians. if koro had said he his studying engineering, ICT, medicine i would have been justifiable but history? oga pack well
2. what else will do when a case is already in a court of law or are you so daft to understand that it only the court that can give a judgement on a case oh! sorry you are too busy following koro and his likes to know saraki case is still in court
3. i will still advice you to chill with cold fanta and watch instead of predicting what's not

uncleinans:
whats up with saraki case? you think we will still hear anything bout it? the case came up under lord bubu.
you re just a novice who know nothing bout Nigeria politics.

since you are a master in Nigeria politics just chill with fanta and stop being a fortune teller because you are not good at it

uncleinans:
See ehh, you don't talk because you think you can talk. Talk because you have something reasonable to say. One question for you pls......... What say you bout Nigerians that goes abroad to study law?
See, US is not far, if you have a case in him, before you know it, Koro will be here to answer questions. You don't just comment because data is now cheap for every dick and harry.
And if you think people indicted in dasukigate will go to jail, pls bros, wake up and ask yourself how far with Otedola and lawal case, the whole subsidy case, saraki case, sanusi go jail? We all know how e left cbn. Akume go jail? Abdulahi adamu fa? Joshua dariya, el rufai is the governor of kd today, we all know how he shared Abuja land between him and objs fam. So you people should just stop arguing cause this guys are friends behind the scene.

No need to exchange words with you but your ignorance knows no bound first what coronation does ekitigate has to do with dasukigate issue this is the problem instead of treating an issue as it is you and your godfather koro are busy diverting to other issues and to infom you once koro name surface in the dasukigate he will surely answer present at the EFCC office without delay and to further tell you how naive and myopic you are was buhari or rather APC the head of government during those cases you mention? my candid advice to you is kindly tell your godfather to come clean first before spewing trash on social media offcourse you too can do yourself good by chiling with cool fanta and watch how it will all play out instead of being a self acclaim prophet

CELEBOLOFOFO:
I can see you are just too dumb, didn't you read the part that says' I am am in Georgia USA studying History'?? Will someone hiding tell you his location? Where did Nairaland see people like you self?

studying whose history? Nigeria history or Africa's history? for how long will people like you keep shielding lies if may ask did koro even address the issue raised by SR off course not he only boycotted it by telling people like you he is studying history in an American university to help Nigeria future geeration as if OAU, uni Lag, UNN, uni BEN, UI, ABU no longer teach history oga not all Nigerians are fools.
