bidexiii: That is not true ! And you made a 100% misrepresentation of facts by saying;"he entered the war quite late in 1969 . Then what year was he appointed ? The civil war lasted;6 July 1967 – 15 January 1970 (2 years, 6 months, 1 week and 2 days) , so how many months did he played in the war, when he entered late 1969 that the war ended. Get your facts right ? Listen. Dont be in a hurry to dispute what I've said. I've discovered as regards history especially the Nigerian civil war, a lot of online sources render untrue accounts probably due to ethnic sentiments/leanings on both sides. A more reliable way is to read accounts by key participants in that war and not some hogwash written by someone with second hand motives. Nevertheless, I recommend you read Now a omoigui's essays on the civil. They give quite a balanced view of events in that war. Too bad I'm busy at the moment, I'd have sought it out for you. |

@bidexii I think this is a deliberate misrepresentation of facts. you got that from wikipedia maybe- dumb site. one has to be careful with the information we post on public forums because I fear a generation one day, will wake up and recount history as it NEVER happened!! What I'm saying is, O. Obasanjo was nowhere near the Nsukka front (1st division AOR) as at 1967. He entered the war quite late in 1969 and even then was handed the command of the 3rd marine commando division ( Adekunle's division) whose area of responsibility stretched across the Atlantic theatre from calabar to port Harcourt, bonny and all those areas. |

Adoka/Ugboju constituencies (They are more or less districts in the true sense of the word) are just one of several in Benue zone C. there are nine LGAs in this zone so we'll have to wait and see the outcome at the end of the election. traditionally, David Mark has not had much of a stronghold in these two districts. LGAS like Agatu, Okpokwu, oju, obi, ogbadigbo and Otukpo town itself, have been his conquering grounds in times past. A lot remains to be seen though I think its too early yet to celebrate. By the way, incontrovertible information reaching me says that the incumbent Governor, Gabriel Suswam and senatorial aspirant (contesting against Barnabas Gemade- ex PDP national chairman now APC) has been massively defeated in his zone. |

Mopolchi: I did my interview after they finished the L2s at about 2pm. I entered immediately after the L2s concluded. I was thinking that they would complete that of ALs on Friday. Many ALs came. So they did interview for ALs on Saturday? How was the test? When do you think we will be called? hopefully next year. and yes the test went well. questions were surprisingly cheaper than expected. I still fear many will pass. Nobody with a sound background should fail such a test but then what do I know? i suppose they have chosen the persons they want but again I might still be wrong. seriously praying. you applied as AL? |
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Federal University, Wukari!!! by patwilly(m): 5:36pm On Dec 16, 2014 |
Mopolchi: Within my purview and during the interview, most people invited came, including GAs of all faculties and non-academics. The interview was conducted according to posts applied beginning from Professors down the academic order. The senior academics did theirs on Wed. The middle ones, that is, L1s and L2s did theirs on Thurs, together with ALs. Any leftover of the ALs was concluded on Fri and the GAs & the Non-Academic did on Fri., which was their day for interview. I saw some of the non-academics waiting for their turns. And for the GAs, I did not figure out one on that day. But look at this thread will show that some GAs were sent text for interview on the 12th. Apart from that, I heard from somebody that an indigene to him that he was surprise to see the number of interviewees on ground due to the many applications that were burnt. Another is, I don't think that the university dons will create out another time this year to interview again. The interview process was time consuming for the VC and other 9 members of the interview board. Well, the above said should not discourage you. Just pray that God does sth still. As I said before, it depends on the department he or she is applying into. If the department needs more GAs, then expect an invite still. Until then, get enrolled for Post Graduate programme, which is an advantage for lecturing nowadays. quite wrong. the interviewers couldn't handle all the L2s and ALs on Friday so the interview kind of spilled over to Saturday. we Ga's wrote our aptitude test on Saturday after which we were asked to leave. Maybe you left early on Friday. |

[quote author=TheMadame post=28912259]What I can not understand is how the Biafran forces lost the civil war to incompetent and bikering generals such as these. The fact that Biafra lost that war has created all the problems this contraption called Nigeria is suffering today. I remember reading Joseph Garba's book where he categorically stated that he and Yakubu Gowon sat for hours staring at the imported guns for the war because they did not know how to operate them. Clueless generals. Nigeria has been led by clueless men for eons and that is why we find ourselves in the quagmire we are in today.[/quote how do I get this book Madame? |

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Is Barcelona And Spain Really Now A Bore Of A Team To Watch? by patwilly(m): 11:34am On Dec 01, 2014 |
Eziachi: Last week, I looked forward to watch the Champions league game between the Spanish giants and their counterpart from the city of Milan Italy but before the A.C Milan got their goal, I had to switch over to watch the rather not so high profile game on the same night involving Galatasaray of Istanbul and Schalke O4. I had to admit that I was influence to switch over by a friend that call to ask me which game I was watching and I said Barca/Milan and his response was that, he is bored of watching Barcelona or Spain this days, that I should watch the other game and that is real end to end game and that both sides are going for it and I must say that he wasn't wrong as I watched Galatasaray/Schalke 04 till the end.
For those that find matches involving Barca or Spain borring, I will say that you are not alone as I do too now. But when you look carefully as a football person, you can't see that it neither Spain nor Barca's fault, but the catalyst to boringness lies squarely on the door steps of opponents.
Its like a mindset in subconscious this days that teams playing against Spain or Barca instinctively pack 11 men behind the ball, with ten of the players waiting just outside their 18 yard box and then doing a 100 metre race anytime they get to ball and its now called counter attacking football. I hate to hear people call this counter attacking football, because if you really want to see a real counter attacking football, it best to watch Arsenal team of the mid 90s-early 2000s, and this is coming from a Spurs season ticket holder of over 30 years.
In that regards both Barca and Spain, in most matches has nowhere to go than to keep passing the ball in front of 10 men for most of the game and its even worse if the other team scores first. That is why I pray this days for Barca or Spain to race into two goals advantage and its then you will see other team come out to play and in effect also free Spain or Barcelona to entertain you,if you are a neutral like me. This just my personal opinion, you have every right to disagree. hmm. Oga Eziachi. how old can you be really? just curious. |
