Point if correction South east and South South have the least number or reps

Igbo have 5 states
North east 7 states
We have yoruha reps in Kwara and Kogi (Dino mealyes side )

Talk what you know

Thanks for the enlightenment since you know more than me. If Igbo has 5 states, is not three senators per state, nine reps per states and the yorubas from kwara and Kogi, do they advocate for oyo, Ogun or for their constituency? Because you are counting states as if it is by number of states.

MasterKernel:
It's not a privilege to reside in any part of Nigeria, the revenue that's used to run your states machineries is coming from South South, what are you giving to them in turn? Please you aren't helping Igbos, if they have there rents, they're giving a space like every other person.

I am not saying it’s a privilege or a matter of help but crying wickedness and marginalization is off point if those things are put in consideration. Also, since the revenue used for development of other regions is from south south, that’s why I said you should hold your representatives that are supposed to bring yours accountable. Every region has equal number of reps in the legislature so, they should be held responsible for failing the region.

dignity33:
I will never be silence until Nigerians change there attitude towards igbos, called me the name you may wish the truth remain that igbos are being marginalized and we all said we are one Nigeria. You borrow build railway to the north, to the west and still borrowing to developed other part of the country . IF igbos are no longer part of Nigeria we should left to get our independence Nation because you can't continue subject igbos to pay a loan used to developed other part of the nation.

I think on this particular one, you would be wasting your time calling on Nigerians because they are not the ones in the rep/senate. You should rather call your representatives to accountability. Every state has equal senators and reps, what are the easterners doing there when others are pushing for slots in the budget? No president will come inspect, that’s why the construction has given each state the representatives slots so they can bring to the ears of the government the plight of their people but it’s a pity when they get there and start lobbying for contracts, oil and gas portfolios and so on at the expense of their people. Call your representatives to accountability.

dignity33:
That is true Nigeria will not tell you because of envy and wickedness they have toward Igbos.

It baffles me each time I read from people that there is a wickedness or marginalization against Igbo. As much as I hate to criticize, it’s quite clear that those who comes out to write or say such are the educated illiterates among the tribe. So every opportunity they have to display their supposed literacy, they fails to make sense. You are the one being marginalized yet, you are well tolerated everywhere, you establish wherever you are especially Yoruba land. Go to Yorubaland you see them contesting elections with the sons of the soil and they will still get support, they have itch free campaigns. The igbos are being voted as market leaders in Yoruba land, even in a case of misunderstanding, they don’t indulge their own against Igbo. Please before displaying your illiteracy, try search for meanings of the words you use. If you are talking of marginalization or wickedness as you say, you won’t be enjoying all that, go to places where racism is strong especially against black then you will know the real meaning of marginalization or wickedness. Even in the southwest that you live, you can not deny it that an average Hausa enjoys the benefits the Igbo enjoys. Hausas living in southwest should know better about marginalization than Igbo. I hope sense will fall on the ones that keep shouting wickedness so as not to use their mouth cause trouble for the sensible ones going about their business.

If the league decide to go on working, mikel should comply jor..he just making that statement because it's a lower European league. If it was Baca or madrid that ask him to go play will he have the e-balls to say what he just said.

Family comes first..who does not know that?

If everyone stay at home for fear of contact, were will you get simple things as groceries for that family you love? People are out there working despite everything. No one wish it so..but life must go on and the league must have taken certain precautionary measures.

The wife can support his bullshit because there is millions to spend in reserve. But if his account was running thin,.. She for push am out to go hussle like other REAL men.

Yes if it was Barca or Madrid, he wouldn’t need to be the one to tell them because they value their players and investment so much they have already asked their players to go home. He has experienced the top league so you can’t expect him to have the mentality of we die here of the lower league.

Inferiority complex of Africans.. Can't we developed our local sports instead of waiting to play professional football abroad.

I guess Balotelli is also white Caucasian

I think it’s you that needs to work on “African inferiority” mentality because, I doubt if you would say the same thing of Ronaldo or Messi if they are in mikel’s shoes. Anybody can leave any work anytime, he’s the one that works there, has the firsthand experience, knows what is good for himself so we should be careful to judge since we can not understand as much as himself.

Don't doubt what you don't know,even the owner's of sports centers do bribed NEPA that after the match had kicked off,before you will see power. Anybody with small amount of money can influence the biggest organization in Nigeria. Dey dere make pant dey wear you

You may be right in your own corner but don’t get it twisted, no one plants a fuel station because of generating set owners

lozanni:
10 litres multiplied by over a million users, will give you the accurate picture of actual demand for fuel by generator owners

So if you have 500million naira you will go and start a business because of one million users that is not concentrated in an area and even the available ones still has so many options aside you. Wake up, filling stations are not planted because of generating sets.

deeplow:
I only logged into my account to like your post. Some people are just too wise. I wonder if they think all the generators in their neighborhood will consume a truck of petrol in a day

I taya o�

madridguy:
FFK is a certified mad dog no be today.

A reasonable Nigerian will understand the fact that the more generator companies we have in Nigeria the more our power sector will remain jagajaga. Marapco, Jabaili brothers, Mikano to mention few were brought into the country by the cabal killing our power sector.

FYI, Once you dey area with steady power supply, immediately one filling station enter the area, forget the rest na suffer because they will bribe NEPA official to stop giving you steady light for dem to dey sell.

I stand with the senator.

Chai!! See sense! So petrol station owners are actually investing millions of naira because of 10litres generator fuel? What a wise man!

Now it’s all clear the reason and people behind it. Virtually the whole of the north is against him because he condemns their backward mentality/attitude . They like the way they are and will bite hard anyone that’s against their status quo.

spendoon:
Alot of southerners insult the north of the bandits,fulanis heardsmen and a lot of issues, but the truth is all this things are conspiracies planned by some evil minds aginst the development of the north.
RREASON
Ever since buhari came into power he has been making alot efforts to make sure Nigeria reduces it reliance on oil, hance he tried to improve the agriculture of the country which the northerners will be willing to accept and in turn increase the revenue generated from the northern region, but at the mist of this we began to see alot of issues like fulani herdmen, bandits and many more sringing up to discourage farmers from it.
If we can all remember the fulani heardmen used to be peaceful people moving from places without any problems with the people of the community they pass through so why did all this change all of a sudden.

If there is conspiracy, then it’s self inflicted. Since 1999, two southern presidents has ruled and they both in developing north even more than their region. Even the NGOs are more concerned about the north you hardly see their offices elsewhere but everywhere in the north. Majority of the grants coming to Nigeria are actually going to the north but what can you do when the people of the north rejects/frustrate developments? Who is conspiring against who?

He didn't forged his certificate rather there were discrepancies in various result submitted. Each bearing different names not necessary fraud as been painted by the media

If he’s truly educated as he made us believe even up to msc level, then he would know the danger in using different names for different levels. Also, the msc certificate needs to be probed because, no university will admit you for msc with different names on primary, secondary and bsc certificates this alone could be a pointer to the fraud we are talking about. If it’s not a fraud, then we say he went to school but he’s not educated.

Amotekun: We’ve Broken Ties With Yoruba Nation.- Miyetti Allah

The National President of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), Muhammadu Kirowa, says that the association have broken ties with the Yoruba nation for going ahead with their Amotekun Security Network.

Kirowa speaking at Abuja says that the association and it’s affiliates will cease to support the political ambitions of the Yoruba people, saying that the much debated Amotekun Security Network was formed to disrupt cattle herders.

*We cannot be supporting those who are against us. The only reason for forming Amotekun is Fulani people, to drive us away from their land. Tell me are we not all Nigerians?*
I have seen that the Amotekun boys have been armed. If they are armed, we have no choice than to arm cattlemen because they need to protect themselves from the danger which Amotekun will pose to them.

They cannot reject Ruga and also reject open grazing, they must choose one. All I can tell you now is that they are pushing us too far. They are really pushing us to the walls. We have held meetings with relevant government agencies and they promised to look into the issue.

How can they go ahead with Amotekun when the police issued them notice to stop? How can they ignore the President’s directive? I see that there is an evil motive behind this security network.

*I heard they have also endowed them with charms to kill our cows. For any cow killed, their government will pay double for it. For every Fulani herdsman killed, violence will erupt. We have been oppressed for too long. It’s time to tell Yoruba people that we are not cowards and by Allah’s power, we will crush Amotekun and crush all their evil plots against the Fulani race.*

If this is a true story and the government turns a deaf hear, then this government just confirmed they are the powers behind these marauders. If someone could come out and say these things and government is still busy searching for people behind all the atrocities and security challenges, then they have confirmed people’s fear that they have a hidden agenda. Because I don’t see reason why you should think a security outfit is against you if you are not a subject of their duty. I don’t see why you want to arm your people against a security outfit that means you are against the purpose of the security outfit which is peace. If the government that is always in search of people uttering hate speech doesn’t see anything wrong in saying you will fortify your people against a security apparatus upholding peace and protecting lives, then they are nothing but hypocrites. We shall wait and see if they have something to say to the minority chief claiming the kingmaker and threatening violence openly.

It’s a pity.

FFK the drug addict is speaking for himself. The south wants presidency and we will get it back in 2023. Southern President is not an obstacle to restructuring. In fact, the chances of restructuring Nigeria is brighter when a southerner is the president.

Southern bastards like FFK are only playing the script of Atiku and their northern paymasters. APC will take the presidency back to the south in 2023 according to the already established rotation of power and there is nothing anybody can do about it.

Even if you hate someone to the high heavens or you are partisan to the highest level, try to calm down before jumping to type so you can sound reasonable to some extent. Even if he’s playing Atiku’s script, is Atiku going to be president over a republic from the southern part?what will Atiku gain in the disintegration of the country if you are talking about his ambition to become the president? Also, which established law says there should be rotation of power? I may not have read the part in the constitution but you can help point it out. Be liberal in your political view.

What a dumb story!!
1) who reported to the police that he’s not comfortable with him wearing camouflage?
2) he wasn’t reported at the sagam police station but to Abeokuta station that there jurisdiction doesn’t reach that place.
God will judge you all according to your deeds.

seunmsg:
While it is good to trade blame, the major culprit is the useless deputy governorship candidate of APC. Why the fvck did he present forged certificates?

The fact that the guy is a serving senator throws up another problem. Will he continue as a senator? I think he should be thrown out of the senate.

I think the culprit should be the apc leadership that are overconfident that they have all the sectors in their pockets and anything they want goesif not, it’s part of the party’s primary obligation to review their candidates character and documents before submission to avoid any error. They say “if you are digging hole for your enemies, make sure it’s not deep because, you don’t know things may take a twist” they used the same pattern in Osun but they forgot to cover the hole.

But did u see APC crying foul If it's pdp they will rush to US embassy and UN to cry. Now that u removed someone on his inauguration day, democracy isn't under attack abi

That Sagay’s outburst,is it for corner kick or throwing? Oshiomole too must be shouting goal.

hisexcellency34:
Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN), Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption (PACAC) has rejected the Supreme Court ruling nullifying the election of David Lyon, governor-elect of Bayelsa state.

Speaking in a chat with Daily Independent, Sagay said it is wrong for the apex court to ask Douye Diri of the PDP who lost the election to be sworn in as the governor of the state.

“That is very wrong. What they should have done is to nullify the election and let the APC nominate another person. This whole of idea of the Supreme Court becoming electors of people who are defeated over those who are victorious is perverse and very wrong”.

That was what I complained about in the Zamfara case. It is unfortunate and to that extent, I totally disagree with it because it is unjust".

“The PDP man lost. You can give him a second chance because the APC candidate did not get valid nomination. They are not to award victory to a man who people did not vote for. You can’t replace the votes of the electorates with your votes as the judiciary”.

That I can never reconcile myself to and I hope it is not the noise and acrimony the PDP made on the Imo election that is causing all these to happen” he said

Why do Yorubas hate Igbos?
Why do Igbos hate Yorubas?.
.
Despite the fact that we are one Southern Nigeria.
.
A Yoruba man will prefer A Northern Presidency than his fellow Southern man from Igbo extraction. Same applies to an Igbo man.
.
Brothers why?

I think you should get your facts right to form the basis of your opinion before concluding. If you look deep, you will realize that in the recent politics, Igbos have not really shown the zeal to vie for the highest seat, the Hausas and Yorubas has been the biggest players of recent and to me, I believe the few Igbo politicians at the national level has been busy trading their interests in key seats for personal business interests that’s why you will see them lobbying for some portfolios that would materialize their interests and it is part of the things affecting the east.

backnbeta:
Unfortunately sir, the deed has been done, Bubu has achieved his aim of dividing us along religious line and we are just tolerating each other now! Look deeper, even within families...the Muslims/Christian divide has never been more glaring! We don't even exchange Salah and Christmas food again!

BTW, that place doesn't look like an office though, looks more like it was decorated for an event

Yes that’s true, their aim of division along the religious line has been achieved but don’t forget that, there was a government that made the live and tolerance thrive, another came around now and broke the bond, another will still come and mend the fence hopefully. Nothing lasts forever.

ChoCho54:
I am a lagosian and have never seen that division myself. But Prof ishaq Akintola is always here, he's one of you, he says otherwise and supports his claims with facts.

What that means is that, I have not been looking closely.

Yes, Akintola has repeatedly proved to be the empty barrel and you would wonder who is secretary, treasurer and members are in muric because he has always been the the everything. This is to come to the reality that there will always be a bad head and in this case, he is the one. A government came around that exalts his stupidity and made his nuisance voice loud, a government would still come around that would make him irrelevant it’s just a matter of time.

ChoCho54:
Your Adegbite story corroborates my claim still. Only those who are close relations tolerate themselves.

Even muric would disagree with you. Muric is a credible voice is n Islamic affairs.

You are not correct here, it’s not close relations alone. Yorubaland has been a very peaceful haven when it comes to religion matters. Kwara and oyo has always been a predominately islam state and we have never heard religious crises same goes for Ogun. It is when this dispensation arrived that they pay some children of perdition like the muric you mentioned to start defining Yoruba Muslim and Yoruba Christian. You see Christian friends eating on sallah and Muslims during Christmas in Yorubaland and it will continue to be like that because an average yoruba man doesn’t believe in killing especially in the name of religion.
