Na wa oo. Inside the bullion van is either voter sheets to be thumb printed in his house or money to buy voters tomorrow

What more can I say?

ejimatic:
I have had a lot of reactions to what I posted about the need for south west to join hands together to vote APC.Some ignorant some cynical Some myopic some aberrant and some from furious. and frustrated online political gangsters and hooligans who are educated fools and illiterates who lack mannerism in the way the respond to matters online. I have earlier decided to reserve my comment on the copied write up till after the presidential election.However I deem it fit to make some clarifications. with high sense of constructivism.First the write up is not an attack on any tribe but to awaken the south west to the need to harness their efforts together. Anybody can do so if you think is necessary without apology to anybody..You are entitled to your opinion anytime..Second If south west is working together to ensure their son is VP whose business is that? Hausa's Igbo's and Yourubas can decide on what they want.That is politics. Youruba may want presidency in 2023 Igbo's may not need it.Whose business is that? Since 1999 Yoruba ruled for 8 years of two terms Hausa will have their second term now from 2019 to 2023 .Igbos may not want it .It is their choice .whose business? The essence of the write up is for Yourubas to work together in the interest of the southwest and for the future. Every other region can decide what they want.Nigeria has more than 450 tribes but with different interests. Yorubas should work together for the interest of the region and unity of the country. Finally I advise political gangsters online to respond to write up with maturity not abusing people for it will never make or mar the reelection of PBM on Saturday.

If the yorubas think they are smart and feel they can contest 2023 election without considering that the igbos have not had a shot at the presidency, it also means the north can contest and God will burn any Yoruba that will scream in the name of northern greed or north trying to dominate the south. Don’t worry, 2023 is fast coming and we all shall be alive to see as event unfold.

All I have to say is


If only people knew what oil countries such as Angolans and Venezuela folks are passing through during this global crude oil price recess, they would thank God Buhari came in rather than Jonathan who looted us dry during oil boom when it was selling at $110 per barrel for five years unlike the paltry $50 it has been selling under APC. If the looting Jonathan couldn't save during the time of plenty and was already borrowing, how would he have carried on during this crude oil price recess?

Despite Buhari administration earning 60% less yet he's come up with plenty projects such as

Our railways at itakpewarri, Lagos-ibadan, Lagos-Abeokuta, kaduna-abuja etc,

The production of low cost fertilizers,

Zik maoseleum

Baro inland port,

Kaduna inland dry port,

Port Harcourt airline terminal,

Abuja airline terminal,

Rice mills,

Foreign reserve increase from $26b to $43b,

Construction of our express highways such as enuguonitsha, Lagos-ibadan etc.

Social policy schemes such as tradermoni, npower etc

Payment of all pensions of airline staffs that were forced to retire after the shambolic privatisation by Atiku. PDP didn't pay them in the last 16 years.

And most especially, stabilizing us through this recession which happened because jonathan failed to save despite earning 60% more than Buhari coupled with the fall in the price of crude oil from $110 per barrel in 5 years under Jonathan to a paltry $50 per barrel under Buhari administration yet Buhari was able to keep us afloat while having many projects to his name thereby surprising Ngozi Iweala and Charles Soludo who predicted recession because jonathan looted and failed to save during the time of plentiful.

Sai Baba. PDP, Neva again

Zombie what is zoo moselum? How does it add value to the life is it immediate neighborhood not to talk of the igbos?


Rubbish, I don’t even need to talk about other things you listed. they are all propaganda aimed at deceiving the gullible like you. Baro port for where? Has river niger being dredged to start with? Where will the ship pass,is it not the same onitsha water ways? My man use your head, think.

Naajjii:
Is Igbo the only tribe in Nigeria that has not ruled since the return to democracy? We have about 400 tribes in Nigeria. Why are you trying to force things, you have to earn the trust of other Nigerians to get elected not by saying 2023 it must be Igbo presidency.

Did Yoruba earned the trust of other Nigerians before all political parties were told by the military to field in yorubas as their presidential candidates on 1999? Or did OBJ earned the trust of the igbos before he was voted for in 1999 and 2003? Did yaradu and Jonathan earned the trust of the igbos before they voted for? Some of you guys can be so irritating with the way you reason.

Now @Ejimatic, you have a reply to your stupid post you posted on or copied from proudly Yoruba forum of facebook.

Atimes I feel ashamed sharing the same country with people who think like this Tinubu Buharist. Their tribal interest is of most importance to them than national interest. The funniest part of this whole gibberish is the believe that igbos are supporting Atiku because of Peter Obi. The same igbos that were almost divided, With some threatening to boycotting the election,and would have favored Buhari if they did. Where these set of people not told that Buhari had a Chuba Okadigbo in 2003( even with Ojukwu running as a presidential candidate) and Ume Ezeoke in 2007 as VPs yet, igbos rejected him and voted Obasanjo and Musa yaradua?

By the way, why wont igbos support Atiku? Will any other region face the level of humiliation, discrimination, neglect and massacre the igbos have faced under this government and still support Buhari?

Atiku chose an igboman to give them igbos a sense of belonging,hoping it will reduce the growing call for Biafra and also knowing too well that the igbos have not held that postion since the return to democracy. It is annoying that these are they same set of people who preach national unity, fairness and equity. The whole political parties agreed in the interest of peace and national unity to give the southwest the opportunity to produce the president hence all political parties fielded candidates from the southwest, plus now having a Vice President. Is it a crime if an Igboman is given such an opportunity or becomes the Vice President? Are they not Nigerians also? What these tribal junkies don’t know is that if Atiku chose a non Igbo vp, the Igbos will still vote him. Infact, the igbos will vote even a dog, stone, table over Buhari.

Since the end of the civil war, no igbo man has led this country, but what these untravelled political freaks don’t know is that despite the west and the north leading Nigeria the most, outside Lagos, no region is more developed, fast developing and urbanizing than the southeast and southsouth of Nigeria. Even at that, the igbos contribute immensely to the development of other regions, in some cases even far more than the local indigenes. This is not for brag but #Fact. And to tell it to their faces and without reducing the contribution of other groups, there won’t be a Lagos or Abuja economically as it is today without the activities of igbo businessmen and real estate developers.

I will not even dive into human development index which shows year in, year out that other regions are lagging behind the southeast and southsouth in Education, nutrition, disposable income, security and woman empowerment.

The North has led Nigeria the most and with dangote being the richest Blackman, it has not stopped Kano state from having the most out of school children and the north having the poorest citizens and generally still the most backward region in Nigeria. Of what use is the presidency or dangote to North, If not creating a few more billionaires while the general masses remain even poorer?

What this tribal freaks must understand is that igbos are not led by personalities. We are republican and egalitarian . An igbo mans biggest competition or rival, is his fellow igbo man. The igbos achieved all they have today by their share resilience and individual hardwork and not by having the president or Vp positions.

After the north, the biggest street begging culture of able bodied men and woman is in the southwest especailly in Ibadan. Has holding the position of the vic president reduced the street begging? Or the Agberoism in lagos?

Anambra, Imo, Abia, Enugu, Rivers, Delta and Edo states have consistently topped Waec, Neco and Jamb in the past with ten years with only Lagos state in top ten. Was it the presidency that did it for the igbos?

Quota system was introduced to control igbo dominance in education and civiI service with Anambra, IMO, Enugu and Abia and Delta having the highest cut off mark for government unity schools, with only Lagos and ogun coming distant close. Yet these southeastern states keep producing the most graduates in Medicine, Law, Engineering and Pharmacy. Was it the presidency that did for the igbos?

While the igboman wakes up daily to his shop, to earn a living to feed his family and better his life, these freaks wake up to smoking, gambling, partying and thuggery hoping the presidency will better their lives.

To start with, is it not shameful in the first place that a token of 20pounds was given to the igbos to restart their lives after the civil war, that a day will come where these freaks will have to be comparing themselves with the Igboman again, despite the unmerited edge and advantage given to them, and their absolute dominance of the national civil service and middle class, after the end of the civil-war?

If the defeat and genocide faced by the igbos couldn’t break them, Why do these freaks think mere position of power is the Igbomans problem? Every igboman is a president in his own lane, a reason why it always seem as if the igbos are always disunited and can’t rally behind one person. In igboland everyman is a king and has a voice and that voice count. It also a reason the igbos care less about politics and their politicians. They did it individually without the help of government. If it is by government, the igbos probably have the worst set of politicians. My village alone without any notable government infrastructure can comfortably compete with many towns in other regions in comfort, quality of life and standard of living. They did it themselves individually and by community self help.

The igboman cares less about politics or political entitlements. This is also seen by the southeast having the least or almost no political violence starting from governorship electioneering in Anambra state till this moment. There has been a very high level of political maturity in the southeast compares to other regions. While other regions are being paid 1000naira with a pack of garri and groundnut, to entice people to come out for political rallies, the least paid in the east was 10,000naira or to hell with your campaigns. That’s alone shows you people don’t care and you will need to pay more to entice a comfortable man to do your bidding. For the igboman, give him light, good roads,soft loans for his business, create good policies and allow a level playing ground and good environment for his business. Eat your presidency, he will do the rest himself.

The unnecessary insecurity and paranoia displayed around the Igbomans political ambition must stop also. It is time to stop this prevailing illusion that presidency equates to development and the constant living under the shadows of Lagos. Lagos is in the southwest but doesn’t represent the southwest. There is a level to which the government can develop a people, without the effort of the people themselves. As seen with the beautiful roads and flyovers built by the government in some states, yet look at the people, look at the environment,all you see is malnourished people, poverty and an ocean of rustic buildings all because the people are either unproductive, lazy or are not capable of indigenously developing themselves.

I told a friend that Jonathan was voted out because of his closeness to the igbos and not because he was incompetent. Most of those that voted him out were jealous and knew buhari was going to fail but that didn’t matter to them so long as it hurts the igboman. Ask yourself, how come after rejecting buhari 3times, they all of a sudden realized he was their lord and personal savior? And it is the same pattern we are also going to experience in 2019. That doesn’t matter anyways.
if you know anybody that travelled to the East last Christmas, ask them about their experience going home, they will tell you “recession no dey igboland”. Na una wey vote recession dey suffer hunger and recession pass. Despite the high air and land transport fares. If you didn’t book your flight or bus 3days before you are on your own.
It is also good to note that all the local airports in southeast and southsouth are among the busiest airports in Nigeria in addition to Asaba and port harcourt airports which are within proximate distance, and according to NIWA, 60% of the cargos in Nigeria goes to Onitsha. Yet with Obasanjo presidency and osinbajo Vice Presidency, no other airport outside Lagos in Tinibu’s domain is active except for political visit.

Finally, even though this is bad but, by report, Nigeria security forces extorted over N100 billion in the Southeast in three years. This is despite recession. Which other region can you get that kind of money from? And What does that tell you? Anyways, Presidency or no presidency, the igboman is always and will always be comfortable. That is most important. It is better to have few billionaires, with more comfortable people, than more billionaires with a mass of poor, malnourished and hungry people.

Use your head, who presidency or vice presidency help?

Please do this for Owerri and Enugu too naaa. Bikonu. I use God beg you

Igbos conquering Lagos,Abuja, and home ground Aba.. lolz we are truly the Jews of the black race.

This is also a testimony of the advantage of igbo spread. We take advantage of opportunities outside our homeland by competing and conquering them in their backyard, while also making sure we hold on tight to the little quota in our homeland except for a few times our cousins(especailly ibibios who are many and active in igboland take out of our quota. There are very competitive too, but we are not complaining). All in all, at average. While others have 10 to share, igbos compete to get 3 from that 10, then add it to the 5 they have in their home land to get 8. So at the end, while the rest of Nigeria shares 7, igbos have already harvested 8 . It is common Sense, why we dominate in most sectors, especially in education.

They want to remove the best performing governor in the southeast. Thunder will fire all of them.

Updates on the mall and presidential lodge,

Why is gov Dave umahi building a presidential lodge. Can’t he learn from peter obi’s experience, when he was governor of anambra state?

The president lives in Abuja not in abakaliki. Same as the governor lives in abakaliki and not in Abuja. The running and maintenance cost of this lodge will be a burden on the state purse, of which can be saved or used to do better things.

..

Igboland must be better. Kudos to Ndi ebonyi

haywire07:
See the way Nigerian kids look like those IDPs in a war torn country.

How leaders especially House of rep members get to sleep seeing how much their people are suffering , still baffles me

Should we bring pictures of yoruba children in their typical village?

Many urban dwelling Yoruba children don’t look that good. Igbo children in their villages are fresher and healthier than most urban dwelling Yoruba kids.

Lady who accuse Davido of body shaming her has also been accused of having smelly character.

According to Twitter user, she was a rude girl and at one time walked out on a lecturer while they were law school(photo)

hucienda:
She came back from her global waka waka just to vote?? Wow.

#Respect Ma

Just a day before, she was In Addis at the launch of the new Africa Business Coalition for Health championed through a partnership of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa [UNECA] and the Aliko Dangote Foundation with Didier Drogba, Véra Songwe, Aig Imoukhuede, Halima Dangote, Zouera Youssoufou, Michel Sidibe, Joseph Muchera , Dere Awosika among others.

It shows she plans her time and schedule adequately. Respect.

Picture okonjo iweala, as she visit a village primary school where she is to vote before the election was postponed

At the Umuda Isingwu village Community Primary School polling station contemplating the last minute postponement of Nigeria's presidential and legislative elections, children have taken back their primary school for early morning soccer.

To put it mildly, there could have been a few days’ notice of postponement to enable people to plan and avoid wasted travel costs! Not easy for the pockets of ordinary Nigerians!

This was before nairaland got invaded or rather turned one to a hardcore tribal nationalist

This thread that year when We had and elected eze ndigbo nairaland

Nnamdi Kanu revealing the Jubril live on Radiobiafra.

Link up on radio Biafra. A lot of revealation going on. Buhari dead ever since. What we have right now is fake.

Is this the end of the road for APC?

Asshurbanipali:
LOL This is the same substandard chaotic wetheral road laid bare, the same 3 meters long road you usually post when they ask you to show us what Okoro did in Imo state. Look at how shabby and substandard the road is. The whole road and gutter filled with sand. Look at the background and see a town dilapidated with old houses and rustic brown roofs filled with poor residents. The best road in Imo state. Abagworo your propaganda will end soon.

Man once in a while, act like an adult. Not everything is child’s play. Biko

ZombiePUNISHER:
You will be shocked to how low Nnamdi kanu has sunk in the East... He has lost relevance

Igbos will vote massively for PDP... And shame will be buharis and kanus...

Yes igbos will vote, but it will be insignificant. The vote in the east will reflect the prevailing apathy. A lot of people didnt vote in 2015 and I don’t expect them to vote in 2019. Rather a lot of people who voted in 2015 won’t vote in 2019. Hence the number of vote cast in 2015 is excepted to even shrink further in 2019.

All in all, If vote cast in the east in 2015 averaged between 400 to 600 thousand. In 2019, don’t expect more than 300thousand.

ZombiePUNISHER:
Rubbish analysis....
Nobody cares whether you vote or note..
Nobody is going to write any report

You want to bury the east politically... But you are late to the party my friend

Then why are u wailing? IPOB is not forcing you to boycott the election. Vote if you want to vote and let those who want to boycott, boycott. It is their vote and right, and they can give it or use it as they want. Afterall, you guys say their votes don’t count.

Ipob has the grassroot, especailly the markets, parks, schools, Churches, meetings, weddings and all social gatherings in igboland and mobilization is in top gear.

Most of you E-rats are based outside igboland. Your rants on social media is of not effect. Keep wailling my friend

ZombiePUNISHER:
Lol...
Unarmed protesters overpowered Nigerian soldiers ..

Suddenly pythons can't dance again

We know Nnamdi kanu is working for Buhari..

Ask yourself... After the elections boycot and Buhari is declared winner... What next?

After four years of Buhari.. You do another boycot and Tinubu takes over... What have you achieved?

Fools everywhere

Just less than five soilders guarding a road block?

ZombiePUNISHER:
After the election boycotts and Buhari is declared winner.... What next?... What did you achieve?

If igbos boycott the elections and Yes if buhari wins? The ultimate message would have been passed and delivered that the igbos don’t want Nigeria anymore and international observers too will put it in their report and It will als be a basis for diplomatic lobbying as we go forwards and also make restructuring even more inevitable. Unfortunately, most of you guys aren’t seeing far. Without ipob, u will never get restructuring. Militants have come and gone, opc, Massob or whatever group have come and gone. But Ipob remains resolute and defiant.

Go and watch nnamdi kanu’s last interactive section he had with IPOB family in London last week, all your questions were asked and answered. Infact I will post some of them here in bits.

He talked about when Us ambassador visited ohaneze in the heat of ipob protest, and asked igbo leaders what igbos wanted, instead of telling the ambassdor Biafra, they went ahead and told him restructuring and that was the message the ambassador took to trump, who was willing to intervene. You see that even ohaneze is part of the problem
