This is the right thing to do... I wonder why a reasonable government will shift its rememberance day so as to reflect the day they defected their enemies, and these enemies are then absorbed to form an entity called a country. Now tell me the logic:

The Victor see the day as a day of triumph over her enemy

On the other hand, the defeated see this same day as a day of sorrow where their secession dream was defeated.

I wonder who brought up the idea of moving the day from 11 Nov to 15 Jan?

The Armed Forces Remembrance Day also remember Nigerian soldiers who died fighting on Biafran side.


It's the appropriate date set aside to remember all those who died in the war and all other Military operations to keep the country safe.

22brains:
thanks. It seems the portion she gave me is gradually fading off. No wonder a problem shared is half sovled.

She didn't give you any love portion. This is a classical case of seduction.

1) She has been seeing men from her tender age and thus more experienced than you in Man-Women affairs.

2) She understands that you are not yet spoilt and possibly have a soft heart.

3) She is giving you superb sex and attention which will make you to always think of her and not explore the possibility of having other women.

4) I seriously doubt that both of you have the mental maturity and economic powers to maintain a home.

5) A 20 yrs old lady without a good certificate, income generating skills and especially with a five year old son will soon start irritating you in the marriage because with time, sex will be too common and not enough to cover other inadequacies.
This will be causing frequent fights and she will be finding solace in other men (a path she has known for long).

Nchenches:
Igbos now are not campaigning for Atiku to succeed Buhari.


But if Yoruba takes APC presidential ticket, instead of Igbo, it’s likely that Igbos will support Atiku because of Yoruba slight on Igbo.

The slight:


OBJ, a Yoruba, presided over Nigeria for 8 years through votes of Igbo and north in 1999.
Yoruba did not vote OBJ in 1999, but Yoruba massively voted OBJ in 2003, and even threatened to pull out of Nigeria if OBJ was denied 2nd term.

Therefore, it’s a huge slight and insult on the Igbo if Yoruba does not support Igbo to succeed PMB.

Bros, leave please support whoever you want to support and leave the Yorubas out of it sir.

Live and let's live

nocomment2:
"pirates ouyos" stands for "ijaw pirates", not oyo pirates.

Ouyo= Oyo and nothing else.




How can Ouyo be Ijaw?

Yebosola:
Nothing serious, he is talking about Lagos island ONLY, not Lagos as a whole, get your facts right.

Even at that, this is misleading.

It's just the Royalty and some chieftaincy families like Eletu- Odibo that came from Bini. The rest of the people of Isale-Eko were of Awori Origin.



The Binis were a colonial power in Lagos and not the founder or the earliest settlers of Lagos.

tunapawizzy:
I do not know. I just know there are rumours that the governors of those states are not loyal to Tinubu and now the assembly speakers of those states are d only ones(among the APC-controlled SW states) not present at this important meeting. I feel this cannot be a mere coincidence

What you feel is not important in the ways the flagbearer of the APC will emerge.


In a democracy, there's freedom to support or not support a particular candidate.


Tinubu running for the presidency is a plus for the advancement of democratic culture in Nigeria.

Nchenches:
The true enemies of Nigeria are those who witnessed in 1999 how two Yorubas were placed on the tickets of the two largest political parties for a Yoruba to emerge president via zoning, yet now that it’s the turn of Igbo presidency, they gather in support for Tinubu for president after PMB.

Please place two Igbos on the tickets of the two largest political parties and leave Tinubu alone. This honestly is what I expect you to do, however you are rooting for Atiku.



Igbos are in the forefront of Atiku Campaign and at the same time insisting that

1) It is the turn of the Igbos

2) Tinubu or any Yoruba Candidate must not contest.


This is most laughable.

Omofloflo:
Prove me wrong bro.... 75% of igbos don't like him likewise the northerners. I'm a yoruba guy, most of us don't like him as well

If Tinubu wins APC ticket, he will win the presidential election. He will secure at least 500,000 votes in the S/East while Atiku will secure about 1.8 Million votes.

How did you come about the 75% figure?

tunapawizzy:
Naturally u would expect Ondo state speaker and Ekiti state speakers to be there, unfortunately they are not....coincidentally these are the 2 APC states rumoured that the governors do not support Tinubu

So who are the other SWest States supporting?

PenSniper:
Only one current and 5 former speakers attended. It's a wash. The former speakers lack relevance and followership.
Not a good sign altogether.

Can't you see Hon Olakunke Oluomo, the incumbent speaker of Ogun State in the group picture.


The former speakers are also influencial in their party and communities.

Back2Daura:
It is better an igboman is vice than tinubu becomes vice. Greedy man

Tinubu is running for president and not vice president.


Don't bring Igbos into this topic.

Lordbinsmar:
more than finish.

same old polticians. wey don kill Nigeria before.

make God just help me jand.

as soon as possible.

Name the experienced, competent and incorruptible youth that we should vote for in the presidential election.

CocoaOla:
Old foolish greedy leader will want to die in power, youths needs to take up governance.
Same old people since 1970 are still on power in this new generation no retirement Nigerian youth if want your generation to slave forever till world end support one old that don't even care about you and don't complain of bad governance

NIGERIA IS FINISHED NO HOPE PLANING ANOTHER SLAVERY FOR ANOTHER 600 YEAR'S THE WORLD WILL CONTINUE TO LAUGH AT NIGERIANS THEY ARE CURSED WITH GREED FOOLISH SET OF HUMANS AT LARGE

Start mobilizing for Omoyele Sowore for 2023.

Omofloflo:
Can Tinubu become president of this country? Igbos don't like him... most Hausas dont like him, even his own people(yoruba) dislike him except those on his payroll.

That should be Tinubu's headache and NOT your headache.


Start mobilizing for your candidate ,so you won't be wailing uncontrollably in the near future.

Herdsmen:


All this sycophants that have eaten Lagos yam.. and knowing too well that Tinubu is going nowhere.. but to make noise so that Oga Tinubu will see and know that the made noise on this day...
Yoruba know how to play politics of deception.. in they love to deceive themselves...
Tinubu has been parading himself all over the country with so much noise .. from the Yoruba nation.. yet none other tribe in Nigeria have join this noise
What matters after all this Yoruba noise / Tinubu is that no matter as it goes... Tinubu and osibanjo must contest Apc primaries...

Tinubu must not step down
Tinubu must not give excuses whatsoever as reason not to contest
Tinubu must contest primaries....
osibanjo must contest primaries

If Tinubu step down or give excuses.. it means the entire Yoruba tribe are cowards crowns and imps ... and must not be taken serious like IBB rightly said.and should be seen as humans never to trust.

I pray we all live to see 2023... Yoruba just don’t know. What is coming..

2023 ... na where Nigerians they wait yoruba and their tribalism.

... and then no Dey travel .. Na to sit down the believe their thoughts..
Is nice the keep deceiving themselves till 2023...

Start grassroot mobilization for YOUR OWN preferred candidate instead of coming online daily to complain that some people are mobilizing for Tinubu.

No one will take you serious if you later start shouting 'Marginalization:

Karemarealty288:
Only one is a current Speaker ....why are others former. Can anyone explain?....the headline is supposed to be "A Current Speak and league of Former Speakers"..

Take or leave it, current and former speakers are influencial people in their parties and communities.
This is grassroot mobilization

amstamon:
This life funny o...
Baba dey use twitter take dey announce his resignation from crowwe (using anoda man's social platform to announce tori of your own social platform )
Why him no kukuma use crowwe take announce his resignation from crowwe because I am not understanding.
Wat do I even know

But you defended the CEO of Innoson using Toyota Jeep?

viyon02:
yeah you are right, but what I know is that whatever a man sole he shall reap, let wait and see if Tinubu will be the next president. Awolowo and mko had a better chance than him but they lost it all. Let wait and see.

You see, presidents emerged by God's permission and nobody gets to become President unless if it's part of his/her destiny. Only those who are preordained to be leaders of Nations eventually become such.


If it's part of Tinubu's destiny, he will become president. This doesn't mean he is a perfect or even a good man but it only mean it's part of a divine arrangements.

viyon02:
Oga am not campaigning for Atiku my point is, let Southwest look for a Technocrat that will take the mantle and also able to represent the great tribute of Yoruba people and be able to defend his people not one devil in human omo ale that will sell his people to slavery just because of power.

1) The Southwest is NOT a political party. Different political parties present different candidates for the election.

2) In a democracy, every citizen (including the candidate that you hate such as Tinubu) has a right to contest for the presidency.

3) The perfect candidate you wish to see is sitting down in his parlour while Tinubu is labouring day & night preparing to be president.
Who do you think is likely to succeed?

ShackWes:
I laff

hope this dunce knows he's not going to be president for life? ban people so you can have third term?

this was how they banned Kwakwanso in 2003

Kwankwanso was an incumbent Governor in 2003 but was defeated by Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau of the ANPP.

AsomughaChuks02:
The same way Obasanjo chose his successor, Umar Yar Adua

Nigeria of today has changed from that of Obasanjo era.

VaselineCrew:
but won't it pain you too?

dollar is almost N500, everything in the market is expensive

I just want to know if you guys will be exempt from the stupid decisions you make?

Or are you living in a different Nigeria?

I guess this is the dream country you have for your children, and you will tell them you did this just to spite IGBO; a very proud dad you will be. One that destroyed his country for tribal bragging rights, not even real rights...



That's why when hollywood depicted Wakanda, I just laughed... Like Nigerians with their tribal mentality can ever build a WAKANDA

Bros this student support group for Tinubu has nothing to do with Igbos.



Igbos are rooting for Atiku with the hope of getting the VP slot and nobody is calling them names.

Allow others to exercise the righst to run for office sir.

viyon02:
yes I know they are the omo ale among us, If Tinubu is the best candidate Southwest will present for 2023 then I will be highly disappointed in Yorubas

You have a right to feel disappointed but Tinubu also has a right to contest.


Start campaigning for your Atiku and let the voters decide who they want.
QED

Redcrafton:
Greed always trap people and make them loss sense of reasoning or sense of history...

Where did Obasanjo work from Kuje prison to win it in 1999?

How come those who work for something in exams are thrown away with quota system?

You think you are smart.

You are only fooling yourself.

Orji Uzor kalu, Yul Edochie, Kingsley Moghalu and Dave Umahi are running for the presidency but you people are not supporting any of them, instead you are campaigning for ATIKU to become President in 2023. Curiously you are accussing Tinubu who is merely seeking his party presidential nomination of greed.

You don't look like you understand what exactly you want.

Redcrafton:
You are not bigoted but majority of others are.

Stop being damn selfish.

You have had your turn, in 1999, and a VP for another 8 years.

Your greed will cause you terribly...political power always cause issues in Africa.

Is Tinubu or anyone stopping you from contesting?


Most Igbos are strongly supporting Atiku for 2023 but will be wailing that Tinubu must not contest.

Redcrafton:
Can you dumb fellow leave ipob this ipon that and focus on why you think Tinubu can be the president?

Its DOA.

Are you clown not so dumb to think that the Christian body will support another Muslim after Buhari...and then after Tinubu tenure, the north will definitely want a Muslim when it goes back up north?

You people believe Nigeria is ripe where religion and ethnicity is not considered...but will not support the scrapping of Quota System.

Nigeria was designed to fail.

Name the presidential candidate that you are supporting.

UnBanEbenezerr:
but check the comments on nairaland and see most of the comments drumming support for him are all Yorubas

And most of the people who hate Tinubu on this Forum are from which Tribe sir?

VaselineCrew:
You are just a complete dunce

You are in a country that is the Poverty Capital of the World and you are here dancing NAKED for another corrupt politician and you have the NERVE to talk.

The judgement for all of you that vote for the worst politicians to spite IGBO or any other tribe awaits you.

You will tell God how you knowingly were part of those that inflicted pain to a whole country.

I can't just stop laughing at the last two sentimental paragraphs.

NaijaOlosho:
Someone should advise Tinubu not to waste his looted funds

Because he can't be president of Nigeria

Come 2023

It won't happen.

So this is why he rigged in Buhari for his personal interest.

He can't be president

You don't understand democracy.
In politics, especially in Nigerian politics, never say never.

Democracy is a game of numbers.

[quote author=RuudVanNisteroy post=98005033][/quote]Bros this online campaign of calumny against Tinubu cam not work.
It's better you form your own student group to start campaigning for your young, competent and incorruptible candidate.
