ProfCorruption: Aribisala and his odious lies! Why is this man, a highly educated fellow (with an Oxford PhD to boot), disgracing himself all in a futile effort to please GEJ? Is there no respect for facts again?

Tinubu nyash sucker. You stink of shyyte.

Femi hits the nail on the head, as usual.But who is the viable potential Northern Christian presidential candidate? David Mark?

ISpiksDaTroof: Well, contrary to your accusations I do not hate Ibos. For what? Sure, out of all the groups in Nigeria, when it comes to monetary transactions I wouldn't trust them farther than I could throw them, but that doesn't mean I hate them.

Before PDP agents attacked NL and wiped off most of our old posts--- like you can attest to--- I usually came on here in neutrality. But, your ibo brothers would not let me be. Constantly attacking whatever views they deemed unpopular. Tell me, who boasts, chests beats, and constantly antagonizes others on here more than your kin? I state facts as I see them and if my saying things like " Ibos are as religiously and ethnically intolerant like the Hausas they love to condemn" or "Nigerians should call the bluff of the Ibos and vote out this criminal govt" is what makes you think I hate yall, then, hey....

But rest assured, I don't. Yall just need to do some character searching and stop irritating others so much with your attitude.

Yoruba fooool

ISpiksDaTroof: One million pairs a day is obviously a gross exaggeration...but then again if the amount is not inflated then the news is not coming from the South East.

Old yoruba fooool

Corrupt Yoruba pastors. I just pity people, especially Igbos, who fall mugu for all these Yoruba con men parading as pastors.

Mrcdorv: Walahi i no send.

Meaning?

Is this the Lekki we hear about or is another yet to come?

Is Obiano a true doctor (med or academic) or another self proclamation?

bilms: OFCOURSE..WHERE ELSE DID HE COME FROM?

Has there ever been a time in Nigeria's history that Asaba has been in Eastern Nigeria? With an ignorant or wilful bigot like you lurking around, Nigeria is in trouble

Is Nzeogwu from Eastern Nigeria? Do you know your facts?

omenka: Fashola always looking smart and avoiding relentless usage of some medieval gown that constitutes extreme drag and impairment on mobility!! Unlike some eternally drunken pleb!!

There are "clowns" and there are clowns. You are a clown.

focus7: Fashola is simply a leader with distinction.

What a clown you are.

[quote author=Ramnon2]Once again, Africans (in this case Nigerians) have proven to be the dumbest people on earth. Any Dick, Tom, and Harry with a white skin can make a profit (sometimes without any investment) from Africa just by throwing bones at Africans. The Aussie threw bones at Nigerians and they grabbed and chewed on them, while he took the real meat back home.

The Nigerian masses should be asking this dupe of an Australian to refund the money he was paid for the unrendered service or provide the tangibles for which he was paid. We should be carrying placards and protesting in front of the Australian embassy in Nigeria.



Thank you for this vision

Thank you ramnon2 for this prophetic contribution.

thwarrior72: Where's my tribe...fulani?, and ikwerre nko or did u group them as igbos, meanwhile there are not igbo?

Ikwerres are among the most noncompetitive southerners

This raiders guy is a moooron.

OrlandoOwoh: And what would the government that put him in quarantine without any measure to ensure he didn't escape, be charged with?

He is ur fellow yorungbati. So u must support him. Ewu gambia.

tobtap: other nigerians dont attend such low standard schools again...maybe na mostly ur peeps do attend...

Those other non Igbo names are not Nigerians, abi? Ostrich yoruba living in denial since eon.

saxywale: not possible if they have just a single nationality. which country would accept them. Only people with dual nationality can be deported.

They will simply become stateless.

Hm!

Britain to strip terrorist Britons of passport

Trending on CNN.

Hehe. The Adeboloja British terrorist brothers will soon be sent back to Oduduwaland. They will then ply their trade in their father land.

Tyche: Well, it was not her fault she was a hairdress to the first lady at the time

Really?

No doubt Prof Iwu could arguably be described as the most accomplished biomedical scientist living and operating from Nigeria. If we overlook his failed foray into politics we can appreciate how much he has come in the area that he has his greatest strength: ethno-phamarcy.
Working with national and international colleagues, he has co-authored well over Bleep papers some as recent as 2012 like the one below

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of alstonine, an indole alkaloid with putative antipsychotic effects, on working memory by using the step-down inhibitory avoidance paradigm and MK801-induced working memory deficits in mice. Additionally, the role of serotonin 5-HT2A/C receptors in the effects of alstonine on mouse models associated with positive (MK801-induced hyperlocomotion), negative (MK801-induced social interaction deficit), and cognitive (MK801-induced working memory deficit) schizophrenia symptoms was examined. Treatment with alstonine was able to prevent MK801-induced working memory deficit, indicating its potential benefit for cognitive deficits now seen as a core symptom in the disease. Corroborating previously reported data, alstonine was also effective in counteracting MK801-induced hyperlocomotion and social interaction deficit. Ritanserin, a 5-HT2A/C, receptor antagonist, prevented alstonine's effects on these three behavioral parameters. This study presents additional evidence that 5-HT2A/C receptors are central to the antipsychotic-like effects of alstonine, consistently seen in mouse models relevant to the three dimensions of schizophrenia symptoms.

In summary, APC is a party of hate-filled, empty-brained, vindictive, one-track minded, stolen money-miss-road politicians

Omongbatim

I may not know how to become the President of Nigeria, but I know it's never for the highest bidder and it's never up for sale

Ribadu

With due respect to governor Amaechi, he is simply hungry for power and do not know how to go about it, except with money

Ribadu

The truth is that, the APC does not have what it takes to change Nigeria

Ribadu


This is pregnant

President Jonathan has surpassed my vision for Nigeria
