The military tactics of the Nigerian Army in the 1960s, 70s and 80s cannot work in the 21st century.
We are loosing soldiers, because of failures of military intelligence and sabotage.

We have failed to infiltrate the Boko Haram.

Deployment of drones will reduce military casualties.

gidgiddy:
Its because many Nigerians dont know their history that a man like murtala Ramat mohammed still has not just a place of honour on the 20 Naira note, but also has an International Airport and many other landmarks named after him. How is this possible? Or is it that no one cares about history any more? How can such a controversial character still be accorded such recognition?
The sins of murtala:

1] Led the counter coup and superviced the killing of over 300 fellow officers. murtala led other northern elements (including the then Lt Buhari) to commit this murderous act in retaliation for what they tagged an "Igbo coup". For me,a coup plotter,wether Nzeogwu or Murutala has any place in history. It should also be noted that everyone who participated in the first coup were punished at the end of the war while Murutala and co who committed far worse atrocities got off scot-free.

2]Troops under murtala's command committed genocide in Asaba when they entered the city at the start of the civil war. Over 700 defenceless civilians who came to welcome the federal troops were gunned down in cold blood. Wether this happend on Murutala's orders or not is immaterial. His troops killed people and he should bear responsibility for the conduct of his men.

3]murtala,in direct contravention of orders and sound advice led thousands of Nigerian soldiers to their deaths trying to cross the river Niger (in 3 separate attempts) into Onitsha all in his vain attempt to increase his popularity. His troops would later be destroyed at Abagana and he was recalled from the war and sent to London while many of his men lay dead under the River Niger.

4]murtala came to represent the face of northern domination. He kicked out Gowon,seized power,retired everyone who was above him in rank and in one of the worst acts of military indecipline,he triple promoted himself from a one star Brigadier to a full 4 star General. Murutala was the first military officer to conduct a coup in other to take political power. Even Nzeogwu and co had no intention to take power for themselves.

murtala mohammed was a failed soldier,a sociopath,mass murderer and accomplished coup plotter. Because of him,many people needlessly died.

The prophetic cover of "The Victory of Muhammadu Buhari and the Nigerian Dream" shows the man whose ambition is to become the next northern Muslim President of Nigeria. But there is one big obstacle in his way.
The big obstacle from the PDP may roll away from the APC to form a new bigger political party with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

President Muhammadu Buhari will be succeeded by another northern Muslim political leader.
The Igbo political leader in the APC cannot be President without the power bloc of the Yorubas, but instead of romancing the Yorubas, he is romancing the northern Muslims banking on winning the presidential primaries of the APC. But the APC will not be the same again after 2019.
The political agenda of the APC is to hand over to a Yoruba after 2019, leaving the Igbo billionaire in the cold until further notice.
The next President after Buhari will be another Hausa Fulani from the core north. Then after him will follow a Yoruba President.
The Igbo man who will be the President of Nigeria is currently in the APC.
His DNA is Igbo, but he is not from the south east.

Perfect answer.

Imagine illegal landlords and landladies collecting N1000 - N2000 monthly rent for a room in Makoko slum without bathroom and without toilet.

cocaineaddict:

jokes apart, are you Igbo? How can an igbo man be an ifa priest?. Kindly enlighten me more
Full blooded Igbo from Uhuhu, Umuahia North Local Government Area of Abia State.

My father was brought to Lagos by his uncle, a senior Police Officer when he lost his father at the age of 9. He ended up growing up among the Ijebu community and they taught him their culture. He practiced their religion and joined their Fraternity. I knew my father speaking Ijebu Yoruba and Ogun worship. He had a shrine where all the Ijebus in Obalende worshipped with him making the sacrifices. He was also a former soldier of the West African Frontier Force during the World War 2. But he never shared his memories of the war with his children. He taught me Yoruba traditional medicine with IFA divination. But he did not stop me from becoming a Christian, because he also had a cross in his private altar and quoted Psalms. He was really powerful as a certificated metaphysician. During the civil war, he never supported Biafra and remained in Lagos whilst he sent my mother and children to the East, because her family insisted that we must not remain in the south west.

Back to topic.
For those who want to know the circumstances of that I'll fated coup d'etat that ended the life of Gen. Murtala Muhammed, watching '76 will answer your questions.
But not for children below 13.

Education / Re: UNIOSUN Sacks Olabode Ojoniyi, Lecturer Involved In Sex Video by Orikinla(m): 1:36pm On Nov 07, 2016
91KeepInformed:
The Governing Council of the Osun State University, Osogbo, has terminated the appointment of Dr. Olabode Ojoniyi of the Department of Languages and Linguistics, Ikire Campus, caught on video having an amorous relationship with one of his students, Mercy Ikwue.

Our correspondent gathered on Sunday that the Governing Council headed by Mallam Yusuf Ali SAN, sacked the lecturer, who appeared nude on a bed in a hotel room and caressing Miss Ikwue.

A member of the Governing Council confirmed the sacking of Ojoniyi to our correspondent in Osogbo on Sunday.



He said, “The Council met last week and the report of the panel that investigated Ojoniyi’s amorous affair with the female student was deliberated upon. His appointment was terminated because that is the penalty stated in the Code of Conduct of Staff of Osun State University.”

Apart from the member of the Governing Council, three other lecturers including two professors confirmed to our correspondent that Ojoniyi had been sacked.

Part II articles 15 and 23 of the Code of Conduct for Staff and Students of UNIOSUN read, “ An academic staff shall not conduct himself/ herself in relation to students in such a manner that derogates from his status as a lecturer, examiner and adviser. Specifically, sexual harassment of students by (members of) staff is totally forbidden. Any (member of) staff found guilty of sexual harassment shall be dismissed from the service of the university and may be handed over to relevant state authority for prosecution.

“An academic (member of) staff shall not demand from students any gratification whether in cash or in kind including sexual gratification in the discharge of his/her lawful duties. Breach of this code shall warrant appropriate sanction ranging from warning to termination of appointment depending on the gravity of the offence.”

Ojoniyi’s sex act was captured in a video which is believed to have been surreptitiously recorded by the female student.

The female student was said to have been pressurised by Ojoniyi for sex and she eventually agreed and followed him to their agreed place with a laptop computer from which she pretended to be watching a movie, Things Fall Apart. Unknown to him, Miss Ikwue was actually recording their sexual activities.

Ojoniyi had accused one of the lecturers of the university, who was recently dismissed for an alleged misconduct as the person behind the drama. According to him, the lady was contracted to blackmail him. But Ojoniyi did not deny being the one in the video.

The video clip went viral afterwards and Ojoniyi, when contacted by our correspondent did not deny that he was the one in the video and did not say his image was manipulated. He only blamed his detractors for the incident.

From his outstanding performance in the sex video, he has passed the audition to join the randy actors in Nollywood where he will even earn more income than his salary as a lecturer.

He will act the roles of a randy lecturer.

There is something about the counter coup d'etat of July 29, 1966, which Murtala Muhammed was one of the leaders with Danjuma. They killed Gen. Aguyi Ironsi with Fajuyi, a Yoruba. Then 10 years later on February 13, 1976, Murtala Muhammed was killed with his Yoruba Aide Camp.

Properties / Re: Recession Forces Down Abuja Rent (daily Trust) by Orikinla(m): 8:52am On Nov 07, 2016
ManirBK:
If there is anything many residents oworld. Federal Capital Territory are happy for about the economic recession, it is that rent has become more affordable and they can now pay for better accommodation. Tenants and estate agents spoke to Daily Trust about it.

Grace Adesewo, 36, with her husband, are expecting the arrival of their first baby. They were living in a two-bedroom apartment in a block of flats in Garki, Area 8, Abuja. The space was too small to accommodate a new baby who needs a cot and a chest of drawers among other items, first time parents would have gone all out for.
Mrs. Adesewo, who resumed work three months after putting to bed, invited her mother to help her nurse the baby. In May, 2015 the couple began house-hunting.

Although the couple had saved N2.5million which was the going rate for a three bedroom flat in the part of Garki they wanted. But in the end they paid N1.5million for a three-bedroom bungalow with two-room boys quarters and an ample parking space for no less than five cars, in Prince & Princess Estate, Abuja, in January 2016.
The house had been vacant for almost a year when the rent was fixed at N2.5million. Over time, the rent reduced as a result of low patronage. The Adesewos’ ability to bargain with the landlord and their willingness to pay for two years’ rent in advance, worked in their favour.

Mrs. Adesewo said: “Although we didn’t have the money to make up the balance for the second year, immediately, we were able to appeal to him and he agreed that we paid it after six months.”

She teased: “There was no way we were letting the house go because the apartment was beyond our expectation and we didn’t have to worry about accommodation for another two years. We can even rent out the boys quarters and use the money to offset our debt.”

The story was no different for Osita Anosike, 33, who moved from Gwarinpa to Ademola Adetokunbo, Wuse 2, Abuja, in September, 2016.

Anosike, who a manager in a departmental store in Abuja, said: “Three months to the expiration of my rent, I began house-hunting. After three weeks of searching an agent told me he had found a self-contain apartment in Wuse 2.
The bachelor who didn’t mind forfeiting two months’ rent in his old apartment, said: “When he told me the location and that it was going for N400, 000, I jumped at it and immediately paid. Not only is it closer to my workplace, the rent is the same as my old place.”

In the last one year, Nigerians have battled with the ripple effect of recession. The one thing that has comforted many of them - especially those in the FCT - is that they can now live in accommodations of their dreams or something close to it. With many houses lying unoccupied and wasting away, landlords are forced to reduce the cost of rent.
Agents have also implored more aggressing marketing strategies and platforms like advertising online and posting advert signs on street light poles and so on, announcing vacant premises.
On a website, , a self-contained apartment in Asokoro was advertised for N600, 000 as against N700, 000 to N800, 000 a year or two ago.

Also rent for office spaces are crashing because some business people like Sefina Idris, who sells shoes and corporate outfits, find it cheaper to trade from their cars, homes or rent a space in somebody’s shop just to display their wares.

Mr. Patrick Obinna, a small-scale estate agent operating from Zone 4, explained the trend.
He said: “If you look around town, you will find several empty plazas which although are tastefully finished, have been unoccupied for at least one year. They are in Utako and Wuse among others. People who have space in their homes make use of that or come together to rent offices. Each person simply demarcates his work space.”
Obinna said: “Landlords want money on their investments and tenants now have choices and don’t suffer as much as they used to. Some office spaces have gone down from N35, 000 per square metre to N30, 000 or N25, 000.”
Ejike Charles, who has been an agent for 10 years specialising in clients who want accommodation in Maitama or Wuse areas, explained how the recession has affected the cost of accommodation as well as landed property.
He said: “Before a Wuse 2 or Maitama self-contain apartment cost between N500, 000 and N600, 000. Two-bedroom flat was N1.5million. But many of them were empty.”

Charles said: “Some landlords, who don’t want to leave their property empty throughout the year, have reduced the rates because they also understand the situation of the country.
“Presently, one can get a two-bedroom flat for N1million, three bedrooms for about N1.8million to N2million, while a self-contained can also go for N350, 000 or N400,000 depending on how new the property is,” he said.
Despite the rent crash, Charles said there were several empty houses in the metropolis as the recession still made it impossible for tenants to pay the rent.

When asked if landed property have also been affected by the recession, he said: “The landed properties have not really been affected because you find out that a land can remain for many years and nothing will affect it. Unlike a house which if you leave empty decays.
“The prices of land are still almost the same except in cases where someone who wants to sell his land decides to reduce the price,” he said.
Rent rates of duplexes have hardly decreased Charles said. “In Wuse, those with five bedrooms and boys quarters still cost between N8million to N10million for rent and around N120million if they are to be sold. In Maitama rent for such duplexes is still around N15million to N20million.”
Do these relocations by tenants mean more business opportunities for agents running these small scale enterprises?
“I wouldn’t say that it means more business, but some of us are making more on commissions,” said Obinna.
He said this is because people who would ordinarily rent houses in Garki or Wuye can now rent in Asokoro, Wuse or even Maitama if they are lucky.
“The rents of some of the properties in prime areas are in some cases almost at par with rates in the less prime areas. We now have more clients renting apartments in these locations, thus giving us more commission.
“Clients, when they compare distance and the prestige of having a Maitama, Asokoro or Wuse address, don’t mind paying the difference and living in these part of town.”
Abdul Muhammad (33) an agent in Lugbe, said the rates of houses there have also reduced as most tenants find it difficult to renew their rents let alone move to new accommodation.
He said: “A two-bedroom flat, two years ago, used to be between N500, 000 and N600, 000. They are now between N400, 000 and N450, 000. A self-contained which was around N250, 000 and N300, 000 now costs between N200, 000 and N250, 000.
Muhammad also added that he observed a lot of people who lived in the metropolis are now moving to the outskirts for cheaper accommodation there. Gana Umaisha is one such who said he moved to Dutsen-Alhaji which is cheaper than Dawaki so that he could begin developing his own property.
Good roads, little or no traffic congestion, beautiful landscapes, street lights and better security are among reasons which have encouraged Abuja residents to move to prime areas and others like Katampe, Jahi, Life Camp and Karasana where they would ordinarily not have given second thoughts to.
Regardless the location in the FCT, estate agents noted that some rents have remained the same, even though the recession has made it very easier for tenants now. They say, many landlords are no longer shylocks and are willing to collect only one year’s rent instead of two as they formerly insisted on in the past.

Politics / The Bloody Day General Murtala Ramat Mohammed Was Assassinated In A Coup D'état by Orikinla(m): 8:31am On Nov 07, 2016
Friday, February 13, 1976 has remained an unforgettable day in the political history of Nigeria and in my memory.
It is over 40 years ago, but the most tragic incident of that fateful day was the assassination of General
Murtala Ramat Muhammed in one of the bloodiest coups in Nigeria since the first coup executed by the late Major Kaduna Nzeogwu on January 15, 1966.  The coup plotters led by Lt. Col. Buka Suka Dimka also murdered General Mohammed's Aide-De-Camp (ADC), Lieutenant Akintunde Akinsehinwa and his driver, Sergeant Adamu Michika. But his Orderly, Staff Sergeant Michael Otuwu miraculously survived after he regained consciousness later in the morgue.

The official black Mercedes Benz 600 saloon car of the Head of State had been ambushed at the popular Alagbon Junction on Ikoyi Road whilst on the way to his office at Dodan Barracks in Obalende, Lagos.
I was in class one in secondary school at the famous St. Gregory's College in South West Ikoyi, a walking distance from the nearby Dodan Barracks. My parents had gone to work and I had gone to school without knowing that a bloody coup d'etat was already going on nearby. It was about 10am when we heard echoes of gunfire and pandemonium broke out as both teachers and students panicked in fear and trembling. As we rushed out of our classrooms, we saw some parents coming to take their children away. We saw a Nigerian Army soldier with a gun running on the street of our sister school, Holy Child College.

The coup potters and loyal soldiers of the Nigerian Army were having gun battle from Ikoyi Road to the Obalende Road leading to the State House at Dodan Barracks.
I found my way to our house at No 28, Obalende Road from the adjoining streets connecting to St. Gregory's College, because many houses in Obalende had thoroughfare passages or corridors connecting one street to another.
My parents and siblings were already back home with our cotenants and their families and we cowered indoors as sporadic gunfire continued for hours. But peeping from half closed doors, we could see  some armed soldiers using the big gutter on the Obalende Road as their  trench in the gun battle.

Then later we were told that the coup had been aborted by the loyal soldiers of the Nigerian Armed Forces. There was a radio announcement of dusk to dawn curfew.  And everyone remained indoors waiting for more announcements on Radio Nigeria and Nigeria Television Authority (NTA) News network.

The tragic event of Friday, February 13, 1976 has become the thriller of a new historical period drama aptly titled '76, directed by Izu Ojukwu, an award winning Nigerian filmmaker who knew some of the families of the coup plotters in Jos.

[b] Murtala Mohammed is a classic case of everything that bad with Nigeria. That an evil man like Murtala Mohammed can be honored with his treacherous face put on the N20 and have Landmarks such as an International Airport named after him is just incredible. Let enumerate some of the many evils Murtala commited.

1) Murtala Mohammed led the counter coup of July 1966 where he and his Northern cohorts killed over 300 Soldiers, mainly from the East.

2) As commander of the second division of the Nigerian Army that was advancing into the mid-west in 1967, Murtala Mohammed ordered the summary execution of all prisoners of war that were caught. Lt Ishola Williams testified to this.

3)When Murtala got to Asaba, his men murdered almost 1000 Asaba indigenes in cold blood

4)Murtala displayed what a hopeless Soldier he was when his 3 attempts to cross the River Niger and capture Onitsha were crushed by galant Biafran Soldiers. Murtala then went up North to cross the River but was destroyed at the battle of Abagana. Murtala was then recalled from the war as a result of his monumental loses.

5) In his second coup in 1975, Murtala commited one of the worst act of Military indicipline when he retired everyone who was above him in rank the triple promoted him self from a one star Brigadier General to a full 4 star General in one go

I dont even want to go into the 11,000 people Murtala fired from their jobs


Murtala was a certified killer, a homicidal maniac, a failed Soldier, accomplished coup plotter and Military dictator. The man was the embodiment of pure evil. It is a national embarrasment that Nigeria continues honour this man [/b]

MeAboki:
Something fishy about the whole saga, with questions begging for answers:

1) Why is she being held under protective custody; are they afraid for her safety against her own ppl or that she may embarrass them by running away and trying to again re-unite with her lover Yunusa?

2) Why are we yet to hear her own version of events; instead these structured statements being released on her behalf, that appear to have been doctored to conform with the pre-judged positions adopted by her parents, the media and other interest groups - who had chosen to politicise the whole matter?

3) Why has the press seem to have completely lost its voice and not covering the facts emerging from the ongoing trial; especially those concerning veracity of the allegations of forceful marriage and conversion against her alleged abductor Yunusa?

LOL, yeye dey smell - the real truth, no matter how much they try to suppress it, must eventually come out.

[size=20pt]Any relationship with an underage girl or minor by an adult is RAPE and a crime punishable by law.

The fact that these predators from the north only kidnap underage girls from the south shows that they have been sent to do so.
Why are they afraid to go after grown up women?.[/size].
