Dear writer, thank you so much for this piece. Igbos on the east have always call upon our brothers in the Nigeria divided south south to come together and join forces with us but majority have refused to heed that call due to the deceit caused by Yoruba lying media. But they forgot that when someone from Anioma, ikwerre or akwaibom commits a crime , the entire igbos especially the East igbos are blamed for it. No one would remember that he is Anioma or south south but we in the East have been reaching out to our brothers in Anioma, ikwerre and even Benue join us coz United we stand. We are better together. Igbo bu Igbo, ekene mu unu!

Try to solve your problems without bringing Yorubas into the matter as the Yorubas don't even know the differences between Igbo, amaka and Anioma.

They should burn Ariaria market if they are serious.

Hahaaa, Abia people should burn infrastructures of Abia State when they aren't in No Man's Land (NML)?

Things are bad.

But the problem with this article is that I have been seeing variants of this article for decades now. Infact i recall seeing reports from the 1990s 2000s and even ten years ago on the same theme. Price of ram shooting up.


Once it is holiday time, prices of stuff always go up. The average ram seller is probably trying to make enough cash to balance his books for the year, because in one months time the buyers won't come like before.

Infact most Nigerians do not buy rams except when holidays come up. The only customers for rams the rest of the year are probably butchers and maybe hotels.

All in all if you want cheap meat then we have to.change the way we practice agriculture in this country. Our population is too big to be fed by subsistence farming methods. Time we started things like ranching and other modern large scale farming methods

If ram is too expensive, then they should buy he-goats or Camels.

2023: The Yahayah Bello/Fani-Kayode ticket is the answer.

jeyem:
let vote for somone who will make Nigeria GREAT again, I dont care where that person come from, The problem we are having in this country is that we didnt see our self has one nigeria! American is so big and they see each other as one American. Alaska alone, a state in America is bigger than nigeria so dont think nigeria is big, let see each other as one and make NIGERIA GREAT again.

What's the name of that 'someone'?

Penguin2:
PDP is driven by existential needs.

They know that if they field a southerner with APC, then APC is likely to beat them in the game again. Because APC might hand it’s ticket to a Yoruba while PDP will likely field an Igbo man.

When this happens, APC propaganda machine will finish the PDP candidate up in the north; telling northerners how the ‘nyamiri’ will divide Nigeria if given power and that power should go a Yoruba man instead.

We know these things!

If you ask me, I will tell you APC is the one speaking through the Southern Governors and I urge PDP not to fall for the gimmick.

PDP should field a northerner. Let’s take power from these vultures first. That’s paramount.

So, I support the motion that PDP should throw the damn ticket open.

There are many possible options in a political contest.

Are you crazy?
There was no crude oil where?
Did you just visit google?
Cus crude oil de sip from ground for some places, I know it exists in Anambra, you don't even need tech to know oil exists in Nigeria just say they didn't do exploration, which one is there was no oil in Nigeria.
and what advancement in technology are you talking about apart from fracturing which by the way also requires the existence of source rock.
I want to know what you meant by useful crude oil

You sound too crude, unrefined and foul mouthed for civil and enlightened intelligent discussions.


Try to now the difference between Niger Republic and Nigeria.

Where did I mention Anambra in my post?

Idiko1:
Yes, the advancement in Science and Technology is a plus especially in the process of extracting crude oil from the earth. However the crude oil found in Ondo was not about Science and Technology but sectional politics in the shithole called Nigeria. The crude oil in Ondo belongs to Bendel State now Edo and Delta States. All the crude oil wells in Ondo State were caved from Bendel State.

The major oil producing community in Ondo State, Araromi is an Ilaje community and was never part of Bendel State.

However what gives you this impression that once oil is been extracted in a place, crude oil can't be discovered in other areas close to the place over time?

Pauldollars:
Very soon Babi Allah beggars will fill that place

Why can't you just for once be Happ for them. Why must you attribute only negativities to these people.

Furious1:
Lol.. you no go fit kill me with talk. Odogwu if you like go under a waterfall and explore for oil and gas, if the basic factors ain't complete (source rock, reservoir rock, trap, temperature ETC) they're not going to put 1naira to drill any well.there are places in Rivers State with oil but they can't drill cus at least one factor is missing. You still don't understand the concept of sweet spot. Same reason I'm laughing at this frontier basin bullshit, another tactics to sink money in the north.. the basins they should be exploring for hydrocarbon is where there's proven sweetpot like the ND basin and the Anambra basin.
Unless you can wait for another hundreds of millions of years maybe the Geology of Nigeria fit don change

1) Petroleum (Latin; Petra (rock) + Oleum (oil)) has been known and used as a source of energy since Ancient times and became popular during the era of the Roman Empire.


2) As recent as 1985, there were no crude oil in Niger Republic, Chad and Ghana but with advancement in Science and Technology, crude oil were discovered in these places.

3) The concept of what is 'useful crude oil in commercial quantities' changes with advancement in Technology.

gidgiddy:
The vigilante in my village is not registered under any Police. In the only video where Nnamdi Kanu introduced ESN, there were not armed. If anybody now says that ESN were armed after that, you have to show proof that it was Kanu that armed them

Courts are nit beer parlours where anybody goes with nothing but allegations and gossip, you got to court with evidence and facts

Kanu could easily say he never armed ESN, and ESN member who was found with arms had nothing to do with him. The Prosecution will have to prove how Kanu in London, armed ESN in Nigeria. Its not Kanu that has to prove his innocence, it is the prosecution that has to his guilt

I am not interested in the legal issues of Kanu's trials (there are many paid lawyers on both sides to argue that) but pointing out the wrong analogy between armed Vigillante Security company and the Eastern Security Network.

Idiko1:
In 1948, crude oil exploration started in Ondo by Shell D'Arcy and not even a grain sand was discovered. Suddenly the Nigerian idiotic politics led by Yoruba man named Obasanjo discovered crude oil all over Ondo. Nigeria is a real shithole.

There are so many things that weren't discovered or even known in 1948 but are now we'll known today.


With advancement in Science and Technology, crude oil will be discovered in almost all territories close to water bodies.

Dymaco:
Anioma which is bigger than anambra was cut to delta. That supposed to make us 6 states in south east

Anioma was never cut from Anambra State.

Ifearnoevil:
Where in the report did it state that it was Buhari that returned the oil wells?

Don't mind him. It was Mazi Nnamdi Kanu that returned the oil wells to Imo State.

gidgiddy:
Really? So the armed vigilante that guards my neighbourhood, whom we all contribute money to pay, is illegal? All the neighbourhood that have armed vigilante in Nigeria are all illegal? Hmmmm...... interesting

One good thing about Nnamdi Kanu's arrest is that his critics will finally see that he is not the problem. Even Sunday Igboho thought that being a gentleman would save him, they still came for him and he is lucky to be alive. The arrest of Kanu will not silence seperatist voices, it wont stop Boko haram, ISWAP, killer herdsmen from killing people.

The only thing Kanu's arrest will do is give those who dont like his face some short lived joy. But they will still go back to the reality of a failed Nigeria

It's crystal clear that you don't have even little understanding of the laws of Nigeria.

1) The armed Vigillante Security Organization guarding the streets are registered with and under the supervision of the Nigeria Police.

2) ESN is an armed militia established by Nnamdi Kanu and they are parallel to Police/Army.

somehow:
None of them is mad

Could be their fantasy

So they needed to dress 'mad' as an excuse to cover shame and whatever

Yellow people (those outside Africa) do stuffs like this alot albeit not pretending to be mad.

But it is illegal to be having sexual intercourse in the public space.

ghostwon333:
1) Benin city is only the capital of a large kingdom (or empire) which is also called Benin (Kingdom or empire).
2) The entirety of Edo-state is part of Benin Kingdom/Empire and so is lagos and Delta-state and many other parts of southern nigeria.
3) Things such as the bight of Benin and benin republic got their names from the Kingdom of the one and only Oba.
4) The title of the Oba got copied a lot by some people who seem to have forgotten that they copied that title from the emperor of Benin, so those people who call themselves "yoruba" have also named their monarchies after Benin.

1) Both the words ; Oba and Bini are Yoruba words and only have meanings in Yoruba language.

2) Oranmiyan introduced Obaship to Benin. Before Oranmiyan reign in Bini, the previous Kings were called 'Ogiso'

In most Edo communities, the words for king is Ogiam/Oviam/Ogiso and its other variants.

3) Before Oduduwa's reign in Ile-Ife, several Kings had ruled Ile-Ife ,some of which had been deitified and many of these have the words OBA as prefixes to their names e.g OBAtala, OBAlufon, OBAluaye, OBAlufe. This shows that the words OBA predated the reign of Oduduwa in Ile-Ife.

ghostwon333:
You are a crook. Your stupid antics don't work on me, I write books. I am not one of the gullible half educated people whom you can bamboozle.

Your vitriolic personal attacks is uncalled for.
It's not compulsory for anyone to agree with what another person writes here.
Please don't respond to my posts anyone.
You seems too unrefined for intellectual discussions.

ghostwon333:
Why are you such a crook ?
Please stop saying nonsesense.
1) there was never any oduduwa
2) no carbon14 dating made the claim that bogus thing in ife was constructed in 100 AD, the thing was done with modern construction methods for crying out loud.
3) No roman empire coin was discovered in nigeria, who are you trying to scam ?

Read wide on the topics raised. The fact that you don't Know something doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

PrinceOfLagos:
Even in DSS custody, Kanu still get better life pass you

The British government are on his case, and will do everything possible to make sure Kanu gets a fair hearing ..

Who know you ?

But someone on a thread yesterday said that you are one of the paid agents of the FG to defend all actions of the incumbent Government.

TheEnygma:
This man has doomed himself..... I just pity his children because they'll have no ethnjv identity.

You guys are funny Sha.


Do we really need ethnic identities to live good lives in this 21st century?

gbadexy:
There have been non yoruba career politicians in lagos but none of them makes unnecessary noise and enemies for themselves.
He could play politics and hail his principals without disparaging his people.
To each his own.

He didn't disparage his own but IPOB led by Nnamdi Kanu threatened to kill him, so it was natural for him to be excited that Nnamdi Kanu was arrested.

It's very dangerous to assume that anyone who disagrees with Nnamdi Kanu is an enemy of Igbo people.

modsfucker:
Our time is not up yet. The Great Britain is the one to decide when the time is up, go and lobby them.

Even your saviour, Great Britain having lost the greatness many years ago is now battling with disintegration.

modsfucker:
We've been hearing this since 60s,and yet Nigeria is still intact.. What an illusive dream.

Bros, Nigeria has all the features of a failed State.
The country may not last for long and it will be in everyone's best interest that Nigeria disintegrate peacefully.

1) Who is Igbo Presidency?

2) It's more appropriate to compare likes with likes. Compare a person with another person instead of comparing a person with a concept.

Emperormartin:
Why is it that northerners don't move abroad?

Most Northerners by culture are conservative. They move abroad to study and come home to use the education and exposure received abroad to move-up the ladders in Nigerian societies.

AlphaSoul:
My friend...

I agree with a significant part of your post until I read your "highly defamatory" last paragraph. Asiwaju Bola Tinubu was never
an abuser of hard drugs neither
was he ever a drug baron like
some tribal bigots have been
posting falsehood online and on
NL ever since they heard unconfirmed rumours that he
was going to contest in 2023.

Tinubu travels regularly to the U.S. and senior members of the U.S. Embassy pay him visits. If it is true that he is a drug baron like those kids and simpletons have been posting online, the Americans would have arrested him (since the political exile years in the 1990s when the iconic Bola Tinubu who
is a U.S.-trained Chartered Accountant and Senior Mobil Nigeria staff, Femi Gbajabiamila,
Senator Opeyemi Bamidele,
Kayode Fayemi who was the
Director of Radio Kudirat in the
UK, broadcasting in a guerrilla fashion from the premises of BBC
HQ in Bush House, London , etc), and jailed him. It's a very serious offence in the U.S.


It is very obvious that Tinubu has Parkinsons disease which causes vibrations of the hands, body and slurred speech with a groggy look.

I know the signs very well. This is due to the ageing process and
NOT due to the abuse of hard
drugs like some of you are falsely
posting here on NL especially
Ibos, some bitter Niger Delta boy of
Ijaw origin, and now I'm seeing a few young and angry Yoruba here spreading this fake news because of the bias of the government in dealing with insecurity from confirmed Fulani kidnappers who have been arrested many times and killer Fulani armed herdsmen all over Nigeria!

These criminal elements among
the foreign and local Fulanis do
not even have any respect for
PMB other wise they would have listened to his warning to stop the criminality. All they are after is money.


Fortunately there is now a cure
for the debilitating Parkinsons
disease which is a neurological
disorder. The body vibrations
and classic slurred speech and
mistakes he made while reading
a speech he made in Kano as of this year, can be corrected in the U.S., Canada, Germany, etc.

I believe Tinubu seems distant
from commenting lately because he has been undergoing some form of treatment.


I hope this helps.

Cheers!

Your explanation is too educated for these guys.


However, I think certain conservative Northern forces may surprisingly be backing Tinubu, not out of love but for the possibility of Tinubu dieing in the office and his Northern deputy replacing him ala Yar'Adua scenerio.

Were you not in this country when COWS were running those factories?
Chicken has finally come home to roost, even when government was giving cheap forex to the so called small scale industries, no be to lodge the money into some useless foreign investments and ship saw dust into the country?.
Na bonded terminal be their clearing zone and customs are their collaborators.

All these are irrelevant to my questions.


The collapse of the manufacturing sub-sector of the Nigerian economy is due to multiple factors but the major factor had it's roots in the conditions attached to the IMF loans which Nigeria took in 1986.

ejighikemeuwa:
All manufacturers should be crushed to pave way for dangote, that is fulanisation

Is Dangote the reason why Michelin and Dunlop no longer manufacture tyres in Nigeria?
Is Dangote the reason why Oluwa Glass Company stop producing glass in Nigeria, Debo Electronics stop producing Refrigerators and Kaduna Textiles stopped manufacturing clothes in this country?
