The Countdown 2024 Greater Lagos Fiesta will end on the morning of January 1, a statement said on Thursday. The state Commissioner for Tourism, Arts and Culture, Mrs Toke Benson-Awoyinka, had said during a press conference that over 25,000 participants are expected at the event, assuring of watertight security at the event. “We have put a lot in place for security. We are working actively with all security apparatus of the state, the Nigeria Police, DSS, civil defence, LASTMA, and Neighbourhood Watch, among other security operators in the state. We are making sure that the entire space is secure, and we are ensuring that our children are well taken care of and secure as well,” she said.

NapoleonHill: No Yoruba person will ever say Igbos are dividing us alone religious line. It's the Igbos who do not understand that this is nearly impossible due to how intertwined we are. Our parents are both Muslim and Christian, our friends are of opposite religions and our homes are mixed.
This relationship is to the last unit of the society which is the family so a Yoruba person is likely to laugh such comment off as an act of ignorance than take offence at it.
The icing on the cake is that members of both religions could also traditionalists. That's one of the stupidity of the last election. Ibos were throwing the Yoruba Muslim slogan everywhere. I was like okay, maybe I should disown my muslim cousins, neices and nephews 😂 |
Politics › Reno Omokri Educates A Twitter User About The Collapse Of The Aburi Accord by opamoses1(op): 10:59pm On Dec 28, 2023 |
Reno Omokri writes on X (Formerly Twitter) Dear Obi,
Thank you for your feedback. On Aburi, you may want to consider the following facts.
When Major General Aguiyi-Ironsi abrogated regionalism and promulgated Decree Number 34 on May 24, 1966, which effectively ended regionalism, took control of all resources, including oil (all resources, including oil used to belong to the regions before Ironsi's decree), which had hitherto belonged to the regions, and domiciled them in his military government. Other members of the Supreme Military Council alleged that Ironsi did not consult them before promulgating the decree. It is not known if their allegation is true. However, Ironsi's Attorney General, Chief Gabriel Chike Michael Onyiuke, later said Ironsi did not need to consult them.
Also, perhaps naively, ALL of Ironsi's advisers were Igbo, like him. They included Chief Francis Nwokedi, Dr. Pius Okigbo and Colonel Patrick Anwunah. Calls for him to appoint at least one token non-Igbo fell on deaf ears.
That decree ignited the counter-coup of July 29, 1966, in which Ironsi was killed and replaced with[b] Lt. Colonel Yakubu Gowon[/b], who did not participate in the coup but was a compromise candidate since he was a Northerner, to appease the North and a Christian, to placate the South.
All Military Governors accepted him except Ojukwu. Eventually, the then Ghanaian military leader, General Ankrah, invited Gowon and Ojukwu for a peace meeting in Aburi, Ghana, between January 4-5, 1967. Agreements were reached, including that Gowon would broadcast first, AFTER CONSULTATIONS, followed by Ojukwu.
However, upon return, Ojukwu made his broadcast first, which shocked other regions and jeopardised Gowon, who was almost removed by those who made him Head of State. Please note that Gowon had no control of troops. He was, at that time, just a titular Head of State. The real power was domiciled with Colonel Murtala Muhammed until Murtala was militarily humiliated by the Biafrans at Abagana on March 31, 1968, after which Gowon relieved him of his command, and Colonel Obasanjo later became the darling of Gowon due to his military effectiveness against Biafra.
You must understand that at that time, Ojukwu had full dictatorial powers in Biafra, but Gowon was hanging on a rope in Lagos.
As a result of Ojukwu's broadcast, Gowon issued Decree Number 8, and later, on May 27, 1967, broke Nigeria into 12 states. That decree would NEVER have been passed were it not for Ojukwu's broadcast.
Ojukwu rejected both actions, and declared the Republic of Biafra on May 30, 1967, which ignited a police action by Gowon's government on July 6, 1967. Things degenerated into war, which did not end until Biafra's defeat on January 15, 1970, after Ojukwu fled on January 11, 1970.
The war may have been prevented if Ojukwu broke away with only the East Central state, which was homogeneously Igbo. However, he insisted on the whole of Eastern Nigeria, which included non-Igbos in Calabar and Rivers, whose leaders, like Isaac Boro and Ken Asari-Wiwa, rejected Biafra.
Even within Biafra, prominent Igbos, like Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, did not support Ojukwu's actions. They felt that a diplomatic solution could be reached. But after Colonel Ojukwu began executing his friends, like Major Emmanuel Ifeajuna, Colonel Victor Banjo, Philip Alale, and Sam Agbam, amongst others, for treason, they all kept quiet and began plotting to escape Biafra.
This is why Nnamdi Azikiwe escaped from Biafra and turned up in Lagos in 1969, sitting beside General Gowon, declaring support for the Federal Military Government and condemning Colonel Ojukwu, who he blamed for the deaths of millions of Biafrans.
If Colonel Ojukwu had only waited for Gowon to broadcast after Aburi, there would likely have been no war.
Thanks again, and may God bless you.

You must really be a kid Yoruba were even the worst hit when Ndigbo left,if you have data you can watch the interview where the Yoruba men were pleading and almost kneeling for Igbo to come back After the war,they(Nigeria) could have taken back the oil rich region and sent igbos away,no they did no victor no vanquish You yoruba must think we are still in the era where your lying fathers controlled the media
Now the internet is there to burst yall petty lies Ibos were not more than 2% of SW population before the war. After the war was when they started migrating to the west in large numbers as the SE was desolate and torn apart by war. The SE was the battle ground. The desolation was so bad that they started consuming dead people. The West took ibos back out of pity while the Ikweres in Port Harcourt took over their (ibos) property and rejected them. No victor. No vanquish. Lol. That's a consolation statement which reeks of mockery. There was indeed a vanquished. The region was conquered and became a war booty. If the ibos are serious about Biafria, it has to be through the constitution. Tell your governors, hot, senators to push for it. Nnamdi Kanu from like or Abakaliki Simon Ekpa hiding in Finland can't give you Biafra. All they will bring is more killing to alaibo.

She is clearly related to the Alakija family by marriage to a male member of the family. So why are you digitally manipulating your blood pressure over someone else's right to defend her family’s reputation from being dragged through the mud? You are not more intelligent than a b*g of r*cks. It has been said over and over again on this thread that the two Alakijas are not related in any way. In your village, are all the people bearing the last name "Ndubuisi" related? You did not answer the guys question when you made a stupid claim. Instead you are dodging the question.

Igbo tribe is a large one but their " na me score am mentality" allowed smaller tribes to enslave and pillage them.
A true case of divided we fall, united we stand.

Reno just released another one. Reno Omokri writes on Facebook: Dear @NgwuNgwanu,
Thank you for your feedback. Well, there are a number of issues with your assertions. Onitsha itself was brought into the modern era by Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther, who was from Osogun, a town under Oyo and, by extension, Ibadan.
Bishop Crowther brought Christianity to Onitsha in 1855 and opened the way for that religion to enter Igbo land. Before him, that entire area had not experienced the light of the Gospel. Bishop Crowther thereafter documented his missionary works in Igboland in a book published in 1855 titled 'Journal of an Expedition up the Niger and Tshadda Rivers.'
He also wrote the first ever book in the Igbo language, titled 'Isoama-Ibo: A Primer', published in 1857. Bishop Crowther then wrote the second book about the Igbo language titled 'Vocabulary of the Ibo Language', published in 1882.
So, if someone from the greater Ibadan area (Osogun) did that much for Onitsha and Igboland, don't you think you could be more courteous with your words about Ibadan? After all, nobody from Ibadan has insulted you and your communities.
Secondly, Onitsha was founded by people originally from the ancient Benin Empire.
The most authoritative encyclopaedia on Earth is the Encyclopaedia Britannica. Please read what they have to say about Onitsha:
"The town lies on the east bank of the Niger River just south of its confluence with the Anambra River. Founded by adventurers from Benin (nearby, to the west) in the early 17th century, it grew to become the political and trading centre of the small Igbo (Ibo) kingdom of Onitsha."
You can read more here-https://www.britannica.com/place/Onitsha-Nigeria
The word 'kingdom' cannot be used for Igbo land because you had no kings. At the village level, you did have priests. But never kings. Until the British imposed warrant chiefs on you in the late 1890s. You lived in autonomous clans that were almost constantly at war with each other, which made it easy for smaller ethnicities, like the Bini, Ijaw, and Itsekiris, to raid your communities for enslaved people. Igbo enslaved people built the Great Wall of Benin and its moats.
I have receipts from my ancestors for about 100 Igbo enslaved people. I gave a copy of the receipt to Asari Dokubo and appealed to him not to publish it. But if we need to set the records straight, then I am able to publish it for historical purposes. My ancestors were prolific slave traders. It's not a thing of pride, but history is history. I only mention it here to enable you to understand your history and why you behave the way you do today.
If the Benin Empire founded Onitsha, and the Benin Empire had a royal family who are descendants of a Yoruba Prince from Ile-Ife, then what is the basis of your assertions?
The issue is that many of you are unaware of your history and that shallowness makes you say things easily debunked by documented history.
Anyway, thank you for your insults and may God bless you.

Reno Omokri writes: Dear @igbo_marry_igbo,
Thank you for your post. The reason Ibadan has a lot of homes with rustic roofs is not because they are dilapidated. Dilapidated means in a state of disrepair. These homes are not in states of disrepair. They are rustic. Rustic means having a rural charm that is pre modern.
To give you an insight, Ibadan is the third oldest city in Nigeria after Benin and Kano. It is also the largest city in West Africa. The government of the Western Region of Nigeria established by-laws to protect the rustic nature of Ibadan. The Oyo state government retained those laws. What that means is that you cannot build or rebuild these structures without express planning permission. The intention is to retain the rustic charm of Ibadan.
If you travel to Oxford and Cambridge, or if you Google images from those two university towns, you will also find rustic buildings. Tuscany in Italy is another place with a rustic charm. A rustic building is actually more valuable than a brand-new modern building, because of its ancient nature.
A lot of these homes you now call dilapidated were built at a time when there was no single modern building in a particular region of Nigeria. As at the time Ibadan residents were dwelling in these rustic homes, residents in that region were naked and dwelling in mud huts. I have multiple photos, if you would care to see them. But please do not insult me, because I did not take them.
Mapo Hall, Ibadan, which is one of these brown-roofed rustic buildings you now insult, was built in 1925. It is ninety-nine years old. In 1925, only Northern Nigeria, Lagos, Badagry, Calabar, Ota, Port Harcourt, Warri and Benin had modern buildings.
When you do not have ancient rustic buildings in your community or region, you can be forgiven if you do not know their value and call them dilapidated. Ibadan also has the first skyscraper in West Africa-Cocoa House, built in 1964, as well as the first TV station in Africa, the Western Nigeria Television Service, built in 1959, in addition to the first university in Nigeria, established in 1948.
Ibadan city alone attracts more tourists annually than one entire region that I would prefer not to mention. They come to see the rustic buildings you call dilapidated. They visit without being molested or kidnapped. And they are welcome every day, including MONDAY!
Thanks again, and may God bless you.

Antoeni: The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar lll, has condemned the gruesome killings of over 150 innocent people In Plateau State, saying bandits are always a step ahead of the authorities.
The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar lll, has condemned the gruesome killings of over 150 innocent people in Plateau State, saying bandits are always a step ahead of the authorities.
He called on security agencies to be more proactive against the bandits and other criminals.
The Sultan stated this Wednesday at the 80th edition of National Islamic Vocation Course (IVC) with the theme: ‘The Position of Muslims in National Politics and Economy: Where we are and where we ought to be’ held at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Stadium, Bauchi.
Sultan said, “We only condemned such things but after condemning such activities by these bandits and criminals what next? What are the rest of government who are supposed to protect our lives and property (doing)? Why do we keep on having these clashes, why do we keep on having these deaths caused by ourselves? The Tudun Biri incident is still fresh with us and now the recent on the Plateau.
The Sultan quarried the security agencies, asking “Why can’t you be proactive to stop such attacks before they happened?”
“What happened to our intelligence gathering mechanism? Are you telling me that nobody knows that such attacks were coming on?
“In various places whether in Sokoto, Kebbi or Kaduna or anywhere, have we lost our sense of gathering information to avert any or such key loss? We must asked our government to be up and doing because this bandits are always a step ahead.
“For some of us who are opportune to serve in the military, we know the activities of security agencies, they will keep on asking questions what’s really is happening?
The Sultan further lamemted that insecurity had been politised.
“We are all in one big country where we have poverty. Yes, Muslims, Christians and even those who don’t have religion go to the same market and they buy the same food stuff, they enter the same vehicles pay the same fares.
“So it is not the issue of religion, let’s not tell ourselves that anybody is planning anything against Muslims or Christians. No, it is the issue of leadership and I have said it many times that let have confidence in leadership that within the next few months something will change. Let keep on having hope because the moment we lose hope I am telling we are finished.”

nairalandankrah: Same way not every Yoruba is OK with putting an end to Human sacrifice that is very highly predominant in Yoruba culture and religion...
